Indeed, tea is the silent killer in our midst. You are clearly mental.

The Krautrock tea is the only one that concerns me.

No feelings in their songs.
Do you dislike Yes aswell?

Complete BS of course. They have written some objectionable material, but no prog fan should be without Close To The Edge or Relayer. 'Nuff said.
Agreed.  Even if you object to other Yes contributions, 'And You and I' (from Close to the Edge) and 'Sound Chaser' (from Relayer) are tracks not to be missed...

HAHAH... Congratulations to you Rhianna! Just couldn't believe this thread was supposed to be serious!...
Oh YES !... me too... I don't like them... And I don't like Classical Music... I don't like symph prog... And I don't like rock and pop too... but man (or woman?) would you please explain me why on earth I don't live without listening to all these "cheesy craps" every single day??

What else I don't like ?? btw I've just been giving a looooong and huuuuge watching to a new youtube video in a new Triumvirat thread - just unbelievable how "hating" songs like that never stop whistling in our heads, isn't it? And a while before I refreshed up my old time memories listening to Chopin's grand Polonaises - how on earth can these "decrepit old craps" look like being from another plainly WONDERFUL world ??? AAhh yeah ! Yesterday I just coudn't sleep without finding out the differences between three versions of Chopin's Nocturne no.2 played by three different pianists - can you explain me how such a damn basic plain simple score gives way to somewhat INFINITE new variations ????

Just think about all of that cheesy crap...

We need a poll Yes vs Rihanna (the pop star). See if Rihanna gets at least a vote in PA.

Yes in Close To The Edge: a tight album, if you're in energetic mood and fond of windy hikes it may be a great companion. The first part lead by guitar solo, my fav. from Steve howe ever, feels like acrobats jumping, swinging, and turning around, or downhill athletes; Roger Dean's Fragile and CTTE covers fit the music quite well with slightly darkened vivid colours. The "cheesy" moments are when you relax and dream at the end of your intense, wild journey...

90125 is like friends yelling at you for a next go in an amusement park device, in the midst of the crowd where there's a display of competition, chills, a sense of dangerosity. A very special, very balanced album with great variety of tones.

OK, perhaps I've made a love rod for my own back
