Works brilliantly. Perhaps too well, as it makes you think that Yes might not be all bad. Depressingly for Flans, it's one of the few stand out tracks that he writes on Venue Songs. (mr tuck)
This song is spoofing "We Have Heaven" by Yes. Listen to it and you'll see what I mean.
Reminded me more of parts of "Close to the Edge" also by Yes. The way the instruments are played and some of the syncopation almost exactly matches it.
*Haven't heard the Yes song, but this song immediately reminded me of Frank Zappa.
The pseudo-medieval sounding guitar part is vaguely reminiscent of some of the stuff on "Songs from the Wood," an album by Jethro Tull. Specifically, it calls to mind "Hunting Girl", "Cap in Hand", and "The Whistler". I just thought I'd mention that. - Anatole the Vampire
"Cap in hand" by the Proclaimers? That's not right! - The One True Mango
The lyrics remind me of an RPG where you have to do 20 things just to open a door, or other things like that. (First, walk through the trees. Then find the sword, and see the serpant. Then, go and tell the moon. Also...)
