90125 is the eleventh studio album recorded by the British Progressive Rock group Yes. It was released through Atco Records on 7 November 1983.Following the tepid reception of the Drama tour over the changed line-up, Yes had initially disbanded in 1981, with bassist Chris Squire, drummer Alan White and producer Trevor Horn (previously the lead vocalist on Drama) joining Trevor Rabin and the band's original keyboardist Tony Kaye to form the band Cinema, and went to work on a new album in a more radio-friendly direction. Jon Anderson eventually accepted the invitation to join Cinema as their lead vocalist, and in time the band was renamed as the new lineup of Yes.When the album was released, it was Yes' most commercially successful album, reaching #5 on the US Billboard 200 and being certified triple-platinum by the RIAA. "Owner of a Lonely Heart" also remained the band's only US #1 single to date, reaching #8 overall in the year-end charts.The album would also have an unexpected effect on the production team behind it. During the album's making, Horn and his sound team started futzing around with a scrapped drum part that Alan White recorded, leading to the "Red & Blue" mix of "Owner of a Lonely Heart". Horn and company enjoyed the experiment so much that they decided to make further tracks based on its template and the samples that they'd gathered together for 90125. Bringing in business partner Paul Morley, the team would dub themselves Art of Noise, which would become a pivotal act in the development of sampling as a musical tool. Tracklist:Side One "Owner of a Lonely Heart" (4:27) "Hold On" (5:18) "It Can Happen" (5:25) "Changes" (6:16)Side Two "Cinema" (2:07) "Leave It" (4:10) "Our Song" (4:13) "City of Love" (4:46) "Hearts" (7:36) | |

New Sound Album | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: Given the album's start as a separate band, the album took a more pop rock direction, albeit still keeping enough of the old elements to garner acclaim. | |

Longest Song Goes Last | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_2bf54826 | comment |
Longest Song Goes Last: The album closes out with the seven-and-a-half-minute "Hearts", one of only two Epic Rocking songs on the album alongside the six-minute "Changes". | |

Uncommon Time: Go on, try counting out the time signature in the intro to "Changes". It's 17/8, phrased as (4+3+4+3+3)/8. "Our Song" and "Cinema" also have prominent use of 7/4, with the latter additionally having a section of alternating 5/8 and 3/4. | |

Sampling | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_515eeccc | comment |
Sampling: "Owner of a Lonely Heart" was one of the first rock songs to use this technique, courtesy of the then cutting-edge Fairlight CMI. In turn, its drum break has been a favourite sampling choice of hip-hop and dance artists ever since. "White Car" and "Tempus Fugit" from Drama were also composed with the CMI. "City of Love" samples Respighi's "Pines of Rome" in its opening. | |

Epic Rocking | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_74149c93 | comment |
Epic Rocking: "Changes" tops six minutes, and "Hearts" runs for seven and a half. Otherwise the song lengths are generally much shorter than their earlier progressive rock material. | |

Dolled-Up Installment | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_89499ccf | comment |
Dolled-Up Installment: The name 'Cinema' didn't come due to lawsuit threats by similarly named bands, and the label convincing them that just bringing the Yes name back would be enough given that the group had featured everyone but Trevor Rabin - who was annoyed that he inadvertedly joined a reunion. | |

| 90125 (Music) / int_927b2f11 | comment |
The Bus Came Back: Original keyboardist Tony Kaye returned to the band for this album, though most of the keyboard work was played by Trevor Rabin. Founding vocalist Jon Anderson was recruited late into the project. It was also produced by Trevor Horn, himself a former member of Yes. | |

Cheap Heat: "Our Song" mentions Toledo, Ohio prominently. It got so much airplay there that it made the Billboard charts, despite never being released as a single. | |

Shout-Out: "City of Love" references the Bob Marley song "No Woman, No Cry". The opening sitar strum of "It Can Happen" quotes from the opening sitar strum of The Beatles' "Love You To". | |

Title-Only Chorus: "Owner of a Lonely Heart" (albeit with an occasional 'much better than an owner of a broken heart') and "Leave It" both have choruses that largely consist of the title. | |

Vocal Tag Team | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_f0f4b47 | comment |
Vocal Tag Team: As befitting the Rabin era of Yes, Anderson and Rabin both assumed lead vocal roles in the album. Squire also has some foreground parts on several songs, such as the "Look up, look down" bridge on "It Can Happen". Although they're not quite as substantial as Anderson or Rabin's parts, he does provide a more noticeable counterpoint to them compared to what he had sung on most prior Yes albums (and a Rabin/Squire tag team may have been part of Cinema's intended direction prior to Anderson joining). | |

Alternate Music Video | |
| 90125 (Music) / int_ff71e36b | comment |
Alternate Music Video: "Leave It" had a whopping eighteen different music videos made and aired, each based around the band miming to the song in a White Void Room but with various differences in editing, wardrobe, choreography, cinematography, and the members present. The eleventh video would go on to become the "official" one, supplanting the other seventeen on various video releases and the band's YouTube channel. | |
