    How can you rank songs you haven’t heard yet?
    Not on Yes' payroll.

      I think it's just ranking the titles...
      Sometimes the lights all shining on me, other times I can barely see.
      Lately it occurs to me what a long strange trip it’s been.

        The ones that begin with vowels are the best ones.

          They sound like titles for a Steve Howe instrumental solo album.

            LOL. Yeah, they kinda do.

            Gets me wondering, in the past who in the band has been responsible for choosing the song titles that we think are more typical of Yes? I guess Anderson had a lot to do with it?

              Do they? I looked at some Steve Howe instrumental solo albums and he likes one word titles for those ("Corkscrew", "Trambone", "Clap", "Australia", "Ram", "Provence", "Heritage", "Bareback", "Dorothy"​, "Apollo", "Orange", "Purification", "Rose"​). So "Luminosity" is a very Hovian instrumental sort of title, but I am less convinced by the others. It is clearly likely that many of the songs will have been written or co-written by Howe, so, sure, he probably came up with some more titles.

                    They do. There’s a lot of them that are phrases, similar to the new titles on the new Yes album. Steve’s actually really good at cleverly naming instrumentals to fit the music.

                      Song titles like Circles Of Time and All Connected sound like Circa/World Trade/Billy Sherwood titles actually. Could this mean more Sherwood vocals/writing/bass more up in the mix?

                      Living Out Their Dream and One Second Is Enough are sorta Howe titles though (like It Was All We Knew or Leave Well Alone maybe).

                      Magic Potion doesn't sound like a Yes title at all. Who knows - that might be the best track on the album.

                        I really wish the album title was Mirror to the Past. Then I'd be excited with hope that maybe it would sound like the Yes Album or Fragile.

                            One Second Is Enough To Die would be a great title for a James Bond flick. Somebody call Daniel Craig to come back.
