Yes - Owner Of A Lonely Heart

[tpj1965]

"Owner of a Lonely Heart" is a song by the rock band Yes. It is the opening track of their 1983 album 90125. Written primarily by Trevor Rabin (who was new to the band at the time), the song reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 — to this date Yes's biggest chart success by far. Since then, it has seen many releases; the original release was b-sided with Our Song, while others were b-sided with e.g. Leave It, Make It Easy, and remixes of this song

This entire album is pretty good. It was more poppy, relaxing on the whole prog rock thing. Shorter songs, more melodic.

This is one of those albums that will always remind me of a very specific place and time. I was stationed in Germany from 83 to 85, and did a 45 day stretch of guard duty, and I had two cassettes. This one, and a Great White* one. I must have listened to them on the headphones, easily, a couple hundred times apiece.

Leave It is probably my favorite cut from the 90125 album. (the title of the album, for anyone who doesn't know, is actually the release number, or serial number, or catalogue number, of the album. I'm not sure what they call it, really)

*The Great White album, which I bought in Germany, didn't have a title, and I don't know that it was ever released in the US. It was a rocker, though. Not that Once Bitten p*ssy crap. This album rocked. Some of the cuts I remember were Out of the Night, Bad Boys, Down on Your Knees. Man, I wish I could find that tape.
