LEAVE IT

"Leave It" is a good song but maybe it is the worst song from their "90125" album, at least for my taste. Anyway, the original studio version from the album has very impressive vocals arrangements (the best part of the song), but as a whole sounds very uncharacteristic from Yes as it is a very commercial Pop Rock song with electronic drums and some programming Well...this disc has three versions of it:

The "Hello Goodbye Mix" of this song is a very Synth-Pop version of the song, with programmed drums, vocals samples repeating the "Hello Goodbye" chorus of the song, some synth riffs, and nothing more, which lasts for nearly 10 minutes. A boring version more oriented for dancing at the Discos at that time. (I wonder what Jon Anderson was thinking at that time by listening to this version and others similar from other Yes`songs!). A bit of this version also can be heard at the end of the "9012Live" concert video during the final credits. One star rating for this version.

The "single remix" is a bit similar to the album version, but it is shorter, and with a different mix of the percussion programming part and some keyboards effects. I prefer the album version. A very Trevor Horn influenced version in style.

The "A Capella" version shows the very good vocals arrangements.Very impressive.The best part of Trevor Horn`s production for this song.

This disc is only for collectors...or maybe only for completionists.
