I think this album is underrated, although it is quite uneven. Still, the good outnumbers the bad. I'll just review the highlights.

1. I Would Have Waited Forever (6:32)- pretty much a classic Yes style song. good opener

2. Shock to the System (5:09)- more like 90125 style Yes, so its like typical 80's rock, although its not bad 3. Masquerade (2:18) great acoustical song

5. Without Hope You Cannot Start the Day (5:18) - this features great vocals all around.

7. Miracle of Life (7:30) - another good song with outstanding vox

9. The More We Live - Let Go (4:34) a great song

10. Angkor Wat (5:24) now this is one of Yes's best songs. great lyrics, spacy music.

11. Dangerous (Look in the Light of What You're Searching For) (3:39)- great song, with great vox

13. Evensong (0:52) - even though its short, its great

14. Take the Water to the Mountain (3:10) a great song with fantastic vocals

so this album has some outstanding vocals, and I love the idea of combining all of Yes's major members, because they are all extremely good at what they do. Also, no song on here is actually bad, its just kind of 'meh.' Also, its great to listen to in the dark while you sleep.
