Heart of the Sunrise
« on: October 21, 2003, 12:40:33 AM »
Great song:



Love comes to you and you follow
Lose one on to the heart of the sunrise
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the wind with its arms
All around me

Lost on a wave and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the wind with so many around me
Lost in the city

Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting the broken ties they decide
Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
Lost on a wave that you're dreaming
Dram on on to the heart of the sunrise
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the wind with its arms all around
Me
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city

Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting the broken ties they decided

Straightt light moving and removing
SHARPNESS of the colour sun shine
Straight light searching all the meanings
Of the song
Long last treatment of the telling that
Relates to all the words sung
Dreamer easy in the chair that really fits
You

Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the sun with its arms all around
Me
SHARP-DISTANCE
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city

Well well well, more Yes fans here I see.  It is a good tune.  South Side of the Sky is my fave off Fragile.

It seems kind of funny to say this, but I feel sorry in a way for those who are not familiar with so many of the great classic Yes songs.   This band, and its music went so far beyond their contemporaries it's amazing.  

I feel people who think Axle Rose and "Guns and Roses" are what good rock and roll is about just sadly don't have a clue.

Just my opinion.

Don't compare Filet Mignon with a bad-prettythang hamburger.  Both are great, just different.  Yes was the first rock group that I became a fan of back in '78 when I was 11.  Yes for me was like a great musical head trip, like reading a book without having to pick up one.  AC/DC on the other hand, well, let's just say that my stereo goes to 11.  :aok

much like Rush, I just could never get used to Jon Anderson's voice... although not as piercing as Geddy Lee's.. maybe it just sounds a little to .. uh.. 'slight' for me

musically however (again like Rush) they were awesome

If I had to pick one song that I consider their greatest, best representative of what Yes is all about, I'd have to pick...
