The Beautiful Amazing Wonderful Extraordinary Beautiful One Word Yes Lyric Quiz

I made and posted this lyrics quiz back in 1999 on nfte.org. Since we haven't had a quiz for a while, I figured I'd update it and throw it on here. So...



YES LYRICS GAME
===============


Here are the rules:

1. This is a ONE WORD quiz. Each clue is ONE WORD.
2. Each word should be a word that is only in one Yessong, with a few exceptions at the end. I did not double check every single one, so if there are a few songs that have the word "perennial" in it, don't flame me. Thank you.
3. Some songs may be used more than once, but not every Yes song is used.
4. There are 153 questions.
5. Use a sheet of paper or blank word processing document and right the answers down, 1 - 153. I will post the answers in the near future.
6. All clues are "legit" YESSONGS, including ABWH (i.e. no solo projects, no ASIA, GTR, Badger, KC, etc.)
7. Some are really easy, some are really hard, but they are not arranged in any order other than "themes" of the words.


and most important...

8. NO CHEATING. Please don't go to some lyrics page or search online, and don't use your liner notes. See how well you can do from memory.

PS. There is no prize or anything, so don't email me the answers. It's just a fun little thing to do.

Ok here we go, finally...

BONUS - Name as many Yes instrumentals as you can (I came up with 21).
Some of these are tricky and may be open to interpretation, so don't get to
uptight about this one! [HINT: one is a VERY rare b-side, and may not be
considered Yes, but then again, the boxed set...] There are probably more
than the ones I dug up....
