This day in music history.

January 21, 1984, "Owner of a Lonely Heart" by Yes hits #1 on the pop chart. It is the bands only #1 hit. The album it was released on was called 90215 and was considered to be a sell-out by many Yes fans because of its dance-rock style.
Owner Of A lonely Heart by Yes
Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future
Prove yourself
You are the move you make
Take your chances win or loser
See yourself
You are the steps you take
You and you -
and that's the only way
Shake shake yourself
You're every move you make
So the story goes
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Say you don't want to chance it
You've been hurt so before
Watch it now
The eagle in the sky
How he dancin' one and only
You lose yourself
No not for pity's sake
There's no real reason to be lonely
Be yourself
Give your free will a chance
You've got to want to succeed
After my own decision

They confused me so
My love said never question your will at all
In the end you've got to go
Look before you leap
And don't you hesitate at all -
Owner of a lonely heart...
