| Not really that interested in Yes, but I might grab Heart of the Sunrise which could be entertaining to play in certain parts. |

It's true. Kittens are known to have a severe prog deficiency that can prove to be fatal. It's a scientific fact. Veterinarians are required to play "Tom Sawyer" when performing surgery on cats in order to keep them stable, and "21st Centrury Schizoid Man" if they require a double dose.
Unfortunately, deer are actually allergic to prog. They're more punk fans. |
And whatever you do, do not try to use it on a bear! They are severe metalheads and will rip your arms off if you try to play Yes for them. If you're camping and a bear approaches, I hope you have some Megadeth on hand. Even if you do, you still need to move away fast, as they're liable to start moshing at any moment. Trust me, you do not want to be around when that happens!

I hate to complain since I've been waiting for this pack forever and they included Heart of the motherfucking Sunrise, but Owner of a Lonely Heart. Can't say I'm surprised though. I believe I owe mystakin a voxkeys FC now that it's a reality.
Also, I've Seen All Good People is going to be boring (see: nonexistent) for bass/keys/drums for about two thirds of the song.
All things considered, they could have made better choices for a 5-pack, but I'm willing to forgive them because HEART OF THE SUNRISE.

You might say that they can bear-ly handle prog rock? Hahahahahaha.
...Okay, let's end this topic of conversation here before it gets out of hand.

If you're honestly going to complain about getting their most popular song(the one MOST people want) as DLC when you got Roundabout on-disc, you have problems.

You mean the sort of prog rock that so many other prog rock acts consider an inspiration? 
I'm just kidding, of course. Even in the realm of prog, Yes is "out there" and certainly an acquired taste. I can easily see fans of the genre picking from or even passing on this pack.

I'm of the opinion that complaining about getting any Yes is an offense punishable by being tied down and forced to listen to Vogon poetry. |

In the realm of prog, Yes is one of the two or three bands that define the genre. That's like saying in the realm of punk, the Sex Pistols are an acquired taste.
Mind you I find a lot of current "prog" quite formulaic and safe, so maybe we're looking at the same situation in different ways.

BUt I hate the Sex Pistols...Or, at least I hate Anarchy and their WT song.
Considering how musically repressed I am, I'll probably give them a listen sometime. Dunno if I'd actually buy them since I got no one to harmony with or anything like that.

HOLYFUCKINGSHIT!!!!!!!!FINALLY WERE GETTING YES. SO GOOD ON EVERYTHING!!! I cant believe all the good choices, this is insane. Roundabout was basically the funnest song in RB3 on every instrument I don't see this pack being any different. Holy jesus.
Though I don't understand why people call like Heart of the Sunrise a deep cut :/ I always thought it was one of their more popular, same with South Side of the Sky, Fragile is an incredibly well known album even outside of prog fans.

Best week ever or at least best week since Rush's Moving Pictures. But I can easily that Heart of the Sunrise will be the best most epic track in Rock Band to date. I was kind of loosing hope that we'd even get one week of any classic prog. Hell I don't even care about Owner of a Lonely Heart being in there it's one of the best packs to come out. Maybe we can get some Peter Gabriel era Genesis, King Crimson, or some ELP(it's probably asking for too much though).

Fixed. Or alternative. Either way, do not diss Yes.
When in doubt: Say yes.
I do wonder though, what are the lengths of those songs? I know Yes songs can get pretty lengthy.

Heart of the Sunrise should be about 10:30 since they won't include the We Have Heaven coda. For the rest, assuming album versions:
Starship Trooper 9:29
All Good People 6:55
South Side of the Sky 7:58
Owner of a Lonely Heart 4:30
