SATURDAY SONG TO GET STONED TO: YES – “HEART OF THE SUNRISE”

yes fragileSheesh. After reading about “stoners” Arsonists Get All The Girls’ wacky exploits of double-teaming each other in the van, there’s only one way to truly redeem our SATURDAY Song to Get Stoned To column: with a real ball-buster.

Heady, heavy, and pure — progressive rock just don’t get any better than this.

YES – “Heart Of The Sunrise”, off of Fragile (1972)

    Awesome song.

    Everyone needs to see “Buffalo 66″, not only has Christina Ricci never looked better, this song features prominently in the film’s climax.

  • Kip Wingerschmidt

    Agreed – rad movie, great scene, amazing song

    The Saturday song to get stoned to is better than every Arsonists… song to get stoned to combined.

    those Arsonists songs didn’t seem all that stonery to me.

    Ahh Kip, awesome choice my friend. Yes is the greatest band that has ever graced human ear-holes and it’s pretty fucking awesome to see them get some love on my favorite Metal site. Never heard about Buffalo 66, I will check it out as it sounds pretty frickin’ rad. If you ever get a chance, try to find a copy from the ’76 tour with Patrick Moraz on keyboards, he makes this song even sweeter with some unusual sounds.

    I was HUGE into Yes before I discovered metal. Still think they’re of the charts talent-wise.
