My favourite Yes album, which is odd, is Time and a Word, but the Yes album is my second favouite. Fragile is what got me into Yes, and I do still like that album very much. Lizard is my favourite KC album these days, and I also love Islands which tends to not be that appreciated.

I actually like Verhoeven's Starship Troopers adaptation a lot. For me it works pretty well as satire. It's cartoonish and the characters lack depth, but I found it genuinely quite funny as pastiche, and I really like how the propaganda elements are worked into it.
Time and a Word and The Yes Album are also my personal favourites, I think it's mostly because Squire's bass is more prominent then usual on both.

Got to agree with you again, some people take it very seriously Tongue

Oh, and I voted for Lizard, it's out of this world Approve

Starship Trooper gets the vote, but his performance on Lizard is fantastic.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Yes.

The only time it would ever be KC over Yes for me, is with Lark's Tongue vs Tales.

Starship Trooper is one of the greatest Yes songs, but still itīs Lizard for me.

Lizard is fantastic, but ST is stuck in my head more Tongue
