I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG...

[HBKanedge818]

I love this song. My mom would play fragile when I was very small and I loved it. I had great taste in music even at age 4.

[EeVvAaNn3]

Such an awesome band.

[FireAssasin]

Good musicians composed great music, thats what makes them great...

I have a feeling you don't quite understand music. there is actually a math behind music. it's called "music theory".. Yes was very technical, and to be honest, obviously has classical roots. the intro to this song follows song writing rules for classical music. that is what makes progressive rock. it's rock, but with classical roots. that's what makes it so cool.

you're right.....but it's just so rude the transition....anyway....great song!

[dernst47]

That's because your're just listening to this track...I believe it flows into the next one quite nicely.

[tobia54]

I love this song....but I'll never understand the end....it's like..."we don't know how to close it...so....bye".....am I the only one with this feeling?

[xxrobbie1]

yes but what makes one musician better than the other........maybe just the idea that your trying to defend something that makes you happy....but than again isnt music all about making you happy...bottom line is no matter how "technical" someone might be on an instrument it means shit all that matters is how the song makes you feel and THATS why this is a great song...not because yes are "good musicians" fuck that shit

[Ploookon]

No, they don't. Yes's position in progressive rock and rock in general should not be downsized. They contained some of the most adept musicians this world will ever see.
