Finally got all the way through this at Electric Edric rehearsal Tuesday night, beginning to end. It doesn't sound good yet, but it will.
Chris Squire is a beast on this song
I have seen this piece live more than any other song. It holds up and remains powerful. Here is a salute to the nature seen on our journeys. Peace.
Love the bass on this song. Chris Squire is awesome! and Rick Wakeman is masterful every time he plays.
When I was a teenager, my Dad and I liked to analyze the lyrics to the stuff I was listening to. Roundabout made perfect sense to my Dad.
Saw them in Pittsburgh several times too. They opened the roof of the arena to let all the smoke out. One of the tighter bands I've seen. Alan White on drums & percussion is underrated because Squire has such a strong bass line. The entire band was so talented. A treat to watch live. Be blessed, Rev Rob
I'd really like to get the bass on an isolated track and then loop it for infinity.
oh yea puffy boy
Such a cool song, start to finish!
Eh, Frank, that's Jon Anderson. Ian Anderson is the lead singer of Jethro Tull, but he's a good singer too.
my first yes recording was topographic oceans on 8-track love at first riff ever since. steve howe amazing!!! chris squire as well ian anderson what a voice enough said the band is excellent!!!
Damn I love this song! So fun to rock out on the keyboard to ;D
Cheeses me off that they feature the greatest hits album instead of the definitive recording.
Saw the band twice in the early 80's. Both shows amazing...ne v e r realized how integral Chris Squire was to their sound until I saw him play live.

Agreed...ama z i n g bass line, amazing song. I am excited that this will be available for Rock Band 3! :-)
One of the greatest bass lines of all time.

Live in Joshua Tree Calif, Only 1 station gets here.... I wish they would play Anything like this!!!

Every aspect of this prog-rock classic is meticulously crafted. I saw them in Pittsburgh on November 7, 1972. Unlike every other show in its day that desensitized eardrums with overly loud music before the band started, we were greeted with the soothing sounds of nature, just like the record. I was amazed by how fundamental Chris Squire was to their sound. His Rickenbacker bass was fantastic. The musicians were cheered by all, and I'll never forget how much fun they had playing and our joy.
Favorite song...
dang i wish the classic rock stations round here actually played this, good tune.
i believe the lyric is "through the sound" not "through the south"
saw these guys in 1976. great show! too bad wakeman quit 2yrs before.
I'd love this song if it wasn't for the fact that you can't go 4 hrs on a Classic Rock station without hearing it. :P
this is such a sweet song. <3 Yes!
One of the best bass riffs of all time.
Although this song was the practically the only YES song radio ever played (until Lonely Heart) ,and was the encore for almost every single Yes show,it has endured the test of time ,and it is deffinately NO SLOUCH!
Great song. The keyboard is awesome
