Have you ever heard Close to the Edge?? It's sublime!!

Where's gdub?? He hates Yes..

Cheesy, sublime??

Whens your birthday? We'll have a whip round (collection) and get you a dictionary

Sorry, I'm being mean. I take cheesy to mean, well listen to 'The circus of Heaven' from the Tormato album by Yes and you'll know what I mean. Sublime in this context means f***ing brilliant, but you clearly disagree.

I actually never found Cheesy in a dictionary. If you could also enlighten me on the meaning of this adjective other than related to camembert.

Oh well. In answer to your question. No I dont consider them cheesy at all. I once read a sociological study of why it was that so many mourned someone they didn't know, and it made for very depressing reading, and I dont want to go into it now. We've all indulged in 'cheesy' moments in concerts or wherever. Dont take the idea too seriously.

If I asked that question , it is because the first real time I got tothink about what cheesy meant was when I heard someone suggest that all of those people were so cheesy (thickly agreeable and consensual and overly willing to participate in mass communion) while watching the news back in 97 at those funerals.

Besides that, I am a huge cheese fan , especially raw milk ones.

As for Yes , they are somewhat over-rated in my book. But from Yes Album to CTTE , Relayer and Keys studios, great stuff. However, they were also very pompous - TFTO, Union, Magnification. I guess in some way they might be cheesy but they are also elitist.
