What a fascinating cover by a an iconic band. Thanks for posting.

Both of The Buggles ended up in Yes for a while-this lineup of Asia is exponential supergroupery 🤘

Seeing Steve Howe play this song is awesome and they jam it.

best cover of this song, nothing much else to say

Wow... What a prophetic song by The Buggles...

I loved Wetton 👏🏻👊🏻☮️

Happy Birthday Geoff Downes born on August 25, 1952. He is an English keyboardist, songwriter, and record producer who gained fame as a member of the new wave group The Buggles with Trevor Horn, the progressive rock band Yes, and the super-group Asia. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoff_Downes#Discography

That was awesome

Saw this reunion tour with a good friend. They did songs from Yes. Crimson, ELP, and this. Small sro venue in NYC, and it was great. I was maybe 20 feet from the stage.

EXCELENTE Y MUY MUY BUENA VERSION, IN MEMORIA DE WETTON

John Wetton barely needed a mic! One of the great rock vocalists

Una canzone che porto nel cuore

Geoff does whatever he wants... and part of that is including this song in his newer band's repertoire.

AFAIK, Downes and Howe never had any personal issues with one another. The big "rift" in Asia was always that between Wetton and Howe. 😢

❤Tribute to John WETTON ❤

Ironically, Geoff Downes ditched fellow Buggle Trevor Horn to join Asia. Did Horn approve of this cover of the Buggle classic?

@sharkfintech5893

9 ай бұрын

As the song's co-writer, Downes doesn't need Horn's approval to play it. Also, you can't really blame Downes for jumping at the chance to join Asia. Perhaps they were a bit overhyped as a "supergroup", but the opportunity to team with virtuoso musicians like Howe and Palmer isn't something that presents itself every day. The Buggles OTOH were mostly a one-hit wonder. Trevor Horn may be as good a bassist (perhaps a bit better?) as Wetton ever was, but Wetton was clearly the better vocalist, songwriter, and overall musician.

Imagine if Geoff Downes' fellow Buggle, Trevor Horn, joined Asia with him.

Surprised they would do this. A female background singer would have helped! Not bad but not even close to Trevor's live versions. Very rock 'n' roll! P.S. What the band could not do in the vocals department, they made up for it in the guitar solo one! Amazing.

Pretty good.ll

as tribute to the amazing John Wetton ... I would highly recommend the studio CD "Battlelines" and the live CD "Chasing The Dragon" - - UK live Night After Night is a blast too - I got to see Asia's Alpha tour which in retrospect would easily be them at their best - lot's of material - Alpha had 2 lousy singles and 8 great album tracks esp Midnight Sun and Open Your Eyes - a fave cd

Funny. Steve is playing "not his material".

No. Surprisingly they didn't do anything from Drama though Geoff and Steve were in the band. On this tour they did ELP's Fanfare for the Common Man (Awesome with Howe's guitar part), Yes Roundabout and King Crimson Court of the Crimson King. They played the whole first Asia album and the the two hits off Alpha.

Can anyone top Geoff Downes on keyboards? Nope.
