It means more to me today. I know what it's about now...
First of all: those of you who don't understand that the TRUE YES is about the interplay of rhythm AND musicality going on DURING THE SHOW between Steve and Rick don't belong on Tim's list. Period. Whatever goes on backstage with Chris is just a giggle compared to Steve DRIVING sense of endlessly changing possibilities and Rick's bottomless treasure trove of more-complex-than-Steve rebuttals. I've sat the fence on this issue for too long and I want to come forward. This is TRUTH. How do I know? I saw Yes Acoustic and realized just how punishing Steve is on this band. When he gets bored of all the wishy washy decision makers he has about 3 or 4 OTHER BANDS he tours with. He's the pace setter of this outfit. End of arguments with me. You don't want argue with me, because I did get a B in a Div. I State University in Differential Equations. This is Yes. Be proud.
That being said. I treat whatever Trevor says with caution. He says that Union is not very good. And there is a serious divions in the Yestroops about the quality of Union. I've never been ANYTHING but in love with it. I was shocked when I first joined the forum to discover that there was division here (not involving a calculator cause that's my instrument!) about Union. Depressing.
Union is GREAT. Trevor is a joker. I don't know what he truly means. But I know that I (me, myself, and I) like it. Let's have some unity in this world what do ye say, fellow parliamentarians?
Now for my post: The Miracle Life.
This is the most positive title of any song from a band with the most positive name in the industry. I don't care what it sounds like, Trevor. But the band SEEMS to have talent so I'll buy it. But I'm title person. "Yes" rocks, and the Miracle of Life is THE best titled song. (What's so great about "The Meeting?" The REAL LIVE meeting is Rick and Steve. Let me repeat for dullards and cornholers in forum: Rick and Steve drive Yes. You want the wheel? Here's my reading of Feynman's Lectures on Physics: F..... Y-O-U (or join the army and put me in my place). I do have a college yearbook which features pictures of him. It's a fact, I'll show you my yearbook at 'The Gathering.' The English, Scots, Irish, and Americans ALL spell "Physics" the same way, I promise you! The Miracle of Life Rocks.
"What's this song about?" You may ask, as Cleitus asked rhetorically in the film Alexander the Great. (He did, his line was "Great party Phillip, so what's this song about?")
Well it's about the REAL miracle in this world. The life of the imagination. The imagination to desire. The imagination to be cafeful with those we admire and cherish. The boldness of love, it paralyzed without the restrain of foresight, which inspires the imagination to view "the day after the perfect line." The imagination to THINK of what we might say to those we want to impress with our chivalry. The imagination to create songs of joy and levity to caress the souls of those we understand. The imagination to reach THE WORLD of people who do not understand OUR speech (the only speech VAST enough Rick Wakeman's repertoir or Steve's ego (wink)) and demostrate to their tender souls just how human a speaker of English can truly be. The imagination to create things like water skis, and squirt guns (how sexually releiving), sunscreen (and a whole family of chemistry en route), Epcot Centers, choo-choo trains, cotton gins, and for that matter, plain railroad gin (I don't why anyone likes that ----, it's RUM for me!).
Without the imagination, there IS no life. It's no miracle at least. It's just a recording.
I reached this revelation yesterday. I had a conversation with a Catholic man who had no imagination. He's just a highway robber who wants to impress people with his fine house, not his fine music: he's Mexican. Get it? He thinks he's where the action of the world is. Not Rick and Steve. Isn't that sad? His stepson told him all about Yes. He don't get it. He thinks hot chicks dance in the street in Rio, not on a 10 ton steel stage around the world. He thinks the Macarena was rock, not popularity. Isn't it sad what happens to those who lack imagination? He lacks imagination. He is older than me by about 10 years and works in a corporate world with REAL LOGISTICS AND MOVING MERCHANDISE WEIGHING TONS. Not CDs and an occasional concert. He is constantly working and he's good at it. But he has no imagination. Isn't it sad?
The Miracle of Life: that all of us have this forum to join. That most of us did not grow up together or go to the same church even. That we were strangers until we heard Jon's lyrics. That we have imagination (at it takes a LOT) to trust Timmo (Tim, the Timster, whoever the hell) with control. I know just about all of you HATE my hetersexuals only worldview, but at least you can vent with me instead of verbally with someone down the hall.
I am so glad for Yesfans.com : that I did not join a web blog that ANYONE that I KNOW has joined. It is totally virtual to me. I have fun here. Just imagine all these stupid corporate people who join webgroups with their fellow employees and get stuck in the virtual arguments and emotional whirlwind with people they physically know and now HATE because they were too afraid of having an imagination of their own. An opionion about a band of their own. A love for something that NO ONE agrees with. That's what it's loving Yes these days. Not popular. Not in Helen Mirrens or Paris Hilton's world. Yes is a bunch of geeks really. That's why I joined. Daring people.
FORTUNE FAVORS THE BOLD. KEEP IT GOING! LONGEVITY ROCKS WITH HELEN MIRREN. SHE'S 61 OR SOMETHING.

Footnote (to those of you who don't know what footnotes are they are beside the point but interesting, like Alan, Chris, and Peter Kaye -- backstage crapola):
I watched Alexander the Great because I am picking up modern living Greek. Boy do these people have IMAGINATIVE dance steps! For those of you REAL people into news, Alex. the Gr. is Oliver Stone's commentary on politics today. It came out in 2004 I think. It about Alexander and someone name Cleitus playing Bush and Cheney. I think. It seems that way. This is about the Greek in the Middle East, and Babylon which used to be so beautiful. Babylon just had rhythmic rhyting styles, but ZERO imaginative writing content. Along comes Alexander with allll the geometry and wiped them out. "new sum do solve ay" Alexander told the Babylonians at the battle of Gaugamela. At least that's what Oliver Stone shows. Don't believe me? Check it out. Get the "Directors Cut." I've seen two. It's the better 'virgin experience. It even features to homosexuals making out. Something I found extremely bold in hollywood today. Very tastefully done.
By the way I like Greek so much I am going to a Greek festival three miles from my house next month. EVERYONE in Yesfans is invited to come. Because it's for bold 'non mainstream people' (not 'geeks'). If you have a mind, heart, and imagination you are free to call me for directions. I don't care who you are, I just care what your favorite Yes song is. Does anyone know a "Yesdance?" NO! Hahahahahahaha. That's what they do there... 832-689-6550 ... call if you are bold only. This is not for people like sschiffman who want to talk to their cats about "love," this is for bold men who KNOW what love, loss, recovery, loss, and heartbreak then duty are all about but STILL want something COOL. Or, as the greeks say: "λέγω" ... TPronouced "lego." Try "lego my f....-i-n e-g-g-o" with your sister sometime. You'll know what I mean. It's alive. It's not dead f....-i-n latin. The physics is built into the language. Good grammar is essential. This is no "Gathering." These are American Greeks.
