Both released in the early 80's which do you enjoy more?

Owner of a Lonely YES album - bearing in mind I didn't buy my second YES album until nearly thirty years later. Embarrassed

Rush obviously. OOALH is way out of the Yes spectrum. I know it was a big hit, and a boost for the band's sales and exposure, but that's all it means to me. Musically, it's to simplistic.

I'd love to know who voted for Yes... Confused

That'd be me then, bearing in mind the worst YES album is still more appealing to me than the best Rush album, even though I own eight Rush albums. Big smile

Subdivisions! My stomach decided to divide itself up into smaller parcels, but the food coming into it doesn't read signs or tackle algebra problems.

Owner is a good song. Subdivisions is a great song which has some of Peart's best lyrics.

As good as Subdivisions is, I prefer Owner of a Lonely Heart.

This isn't really a fair poll, as Owner was obviously written to be an attention-grabbing single, while Subdivisions wasn't. Rush's highest charting single, New World Man, was on the same album, and that might have made a better comparison.

Both have been staples where I live on classic rock stations with plenty of regular airplay so they seem well-matched to me from that perspective.
