Dang. I was really hoping Trevor did all the lead vocals on We Can Fly From Here. Chris doing lead on #7, and the writing credits of that song, and the guest on keys, makes me think that that song is closer to a Chris solo song than a "traditional" Yes song, but knowing that Alan and Steve are one it makes it Yes.

I'm looking forward to it, but not as much as I did The Ladder.

Okay, just listened to the clips multiple times, and by George, Benoit sounds UNIQUE! He is NOT channeling Jon, which is MASSIVELY important to me. I've gone on record numerous times as hating cloner-singers. On all the live stuff, Benoit is Jon-light, but he doesn't on this studio material. I'm LOVING how he sounds, I don't know, like "himself" - if that makes sense. In fact, he sounds more like Trevor Horn than Jon - either that, or Trevor does way more singing that the credits would indicate.

Aside from the cheesy love song by Chris, I'm liking what I heard - A LOT.
