I'm 62 & I had seen Yes do this live with Jon Anderson. It was absolutely AMAZING. Anderson & Yes are one of the very few bands that are truly PERFECT live. Never a mistake. Absolutely PERFECT!!

I won't labour the point but these guys stand next to the 18/19 century classical composers as sublime musicians, whose music will still be enjoyed for Millenia to come.

A lineup we will never see again, hear again live, to enjoy the talent that created this and so many wonderful compositions, which thankfully transends time. For those of us who have been lucky to see and hear them perform, videos such as this, brings back all the majical memories that these particular 4 Men have gifted us with.

I’m shore my mum was greeted by this masterpiece as she entered heaven!

What I love about many Yes performances is after 7 minutes you think , wow that was genius! Then it continues and gets progressively better for 15 more minutes. Really the absolute Mozart perfectionists of rock music, and I mean it. i wish I had seen them live.

The most wonderful, moving and truly magnificent spine-tingling piece of prog music ever written. Thank you so much, Jon, Chris, Steve, Rick and Alan.

"Like the time I ran away...turned around and you were standing close to me." (Eyes water.)

I first saw Yes on the "Going for the one" tour when Rick Wakeman returned to the band around '77. I was front row center in front of Jon and Chris. They did "Close to the Edge" and later "Awaken", two glorious long tunes. Chris had his triple neck and Taurus bass pedals. Rick had a portable pipe organ and his Birotrons. Steve had his slide guitar and Fender twins. Alan and his croatails, Jon and his harp. Truly magnificent. Shortly after this night my beautiful cousin MaryJane lost her life and this song "Awaken" i played over and over to ease the grief. Past a mortal as we...

So brilliant. I wish I was 21... sometimes.. But am also glad I'm 63. Because i had this in my time and still after all these years it fills my heart.

this piece of music came directly from heaven

The ultimate merging of spirituality and music. Brings tears every time.

In 2004, when I was 21, I paid for my whole family (10 tickets) to see Yes at a local fairgrounds here in Vermont. My parents had been big fans since the 1970s, and I was raised on Yes in the '80s and '90s. We all thought we knew what to expect. But when they played Awaken - a song that wasn't often played at home for whatever reason - we all broke down into tears. The piece is so incredibly moving, even visually. I will love this band and these musicians forever.

AWAKEN is the Best piece of Progressive Rock Ever Composed. R.I.P. Chris.

Christmas eve 2023, an almost full moon to the east, and the Sun is setting, "like the time I ran away turned around and you were standing close to me" love has no boundaries. So beautiful so beautiful! Many thanks always and in all ways!

One of the finest and best compositions ever written in prog rock history

I was 16 in 1972. There has never been, nor will there be another band like them. Always have enjoyed their music through the decades. Under the stars, around the campfire, desert or mountains, always a perfect fit.

Their magnum opus, GOOSEBUMPS every time I hear this.... so perfect it becomes scary

This absolute masterpiece should be 19 hours and 52 minutes....... !

I lay on my back on the carpet of my brother’s room to listen to this in the summer of 1978 and I experienced an epiphany that has never been surpassed. I go to see Yes when they visit the UK and I am I lifelong believer. Yes! Be free!

One becomes an astral traveler when listening to this wonderful beautiful wonderous anthem

May Yes be blessed as they've blessed us all throughout the years!

I'm South Brazilian and we have a constant relationship with the Platinian Countries. Between Brazil and Argentina there is a playful fight about "PELÉ" and "MARADONA". Until 2022, there was a journalist in Argentina called Mauro Viale, a very close friend of "MARADONA" and one of the greatest experts on the legacy and history of "PELÉ". In Argentina, until the '70s, PELÉ was affectionately called "EL NEGRO". One day Viale was asked who is the better MARADONA or PELÉ, and he replied: "Of course, the best is MARADONA, but EL NEGRO, EL NEGRO is the PELÉ". The same goes for RICK and JON, they belong to a category above of all.

When it comes to YES, with all the key players who created masterpieces such as Awaken, there will never be another time like it. Music that was developed, explored and experienced. An era slowly passing us by, But relived and appreciated with all the audio recordings and especially the videos and DVD's. Like a fine wine, its good when first tasted, but even better when its aged. Yes stands on their own merits, one of a kind.

This epic masterpiece is so beautiful and emotional. I saw them perform this at The House of Blues in Hollywood and there were many of us crying by the end, including Jon. It was an intimate venue. I will never forget it. It gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. Rest in peace Mr. Squire, may your memory be a blessing….

The last great epic from the definitive Yes line up. This performance transported me right back to the Empire Pool, Wembley in 1977, the only time I got to hear Yes play this masterwork. The communion between musicians and audience is captured perfectly here. Seeing these guys so completely and utterly lost in this harmonic meditation makes you wonder why this line up just didn’t go on and on and on. If anyone wants to know why I so deeply, deeply love this band then just watch this stellar performance and Awaken to all its wonders. Rick, Steve, Jon, Alan and Chris, wherever you may be … thank you.

Yes was (is) much more than just a rock band, they were an invention. They invented something original, an invention of sight and sound that we never experienced before, and never will again. Unique into itself, there are no imitators, or sound a likes. And they reinvented themselves over 5 decades, always with a new look, a new sound.. always intriguing and exciting. Their theme based albums centered on our own self-discovery, the trials of mankind, and how we all fit together, and of course the awakening of the human sprit epitomized in this song. They are a gift to the world.

Tell me you have never once ran away, away from every thing and every one, and then stopped and felt someone standing close to you, someone watching over you, someone waiting for you. Awaken is exactly this - and it is timeless.

I wish Steve Howe is really proud for the work he did in it. He got such nice melodies in it and in many other pieces of Yes. In Aweken the last solo on the steel guitar with an air that gently hovers above the other instruments is for me moving and therefore beautiful. Touché.

My favorite live performance of my favorite song by my favorite band featuring my favorite lineup for this band. YES, indeed.

Transcendent. This song is from another dimension.

The Montreux Concert is one of their best ...remember this is a live recording i hope whiteout afterdubbing.Miss this kind of music these days.

A friend has worked with Jon Anderson on a project, and visited with Jon and the band after a concert. She asked Jon what was his favorite lyric. He proceeded to say, "Master of images, songs cast a light on You." This album was released months after a sudden, horrific loss of my mother, and it entered into the fabric of my life as part of my recovery. A song of loss, "Turn of the Century", new beginning, "Parallels", joy, "Wondrous Stories", and finally, what I consider an ode to the one true God, "Awaken". "...Like the time I ran away, turned around and You were standing close to me..." Finally, thank you for posting this wonderfully well made video. A subtle highlight is Chris Squire as whirling dervish to punctuate a moment in the song.

I think if all the best musicians in the world sat down with a blank page to invent a musical inspirationation such as ' Awaken' , nothing would come close to the brilliance of this classic offering...timeless and amazing ... and I feel humbled that I was part of the generation that received this in the beginning. YES ...thank you soo much for this 👍

Yes, yes, yes !! The most wonderful, moving and truly magnificent spine-tingling piece of prog. music ever written. Thank you so much, Jon, Chris, Steve, Rick and Alan.

It’s a masterpiece of pure art. A transcendent spiritual experience revealed by the magic of music. True artists, true beauty, true music. Highlights to the absolute amazing performance of the one and only “Merlin the Magician” on the keyboards. Sublime !!!

I listen to this beyond-this-world-masterpiece regularly. Sometimes once a week, sometime more often, sometimes less. Since years, years over years.

It's always amazed me how the most complex of all Yes songs is also one of the most beautiful and uplifting they ever made.

I was at this show. Flew from Canada to see it. I had a first row balcony seat beside, as I found out later from watching the Yesspeak DVD, Chris Squire's parents. It was a dream come true to see "Awaken" performed just down the road from where it was created.

I feel so old and I am only 60 but this music is me, the talent, the angel voice, the master keyboard and vocals bass and drums, does not get any better

Yes Dino.....I'm 66 and Yes has been in my Soul since I saw them in concert for the first time in 1971. This is hands down, my most favorite Yes song. With tears streaming, remembering Alan and Chris....RIP
