My faith is very private to me. It plays an important part in my life, but I do not try and throw my beliefs at others. I have tremendous respect for all faiths and beliefs, but have a deep concern that religion and faith are currently a long way apart from each other. Rick Wakeman beliefconcerndeep share on social
I'm hugely fond of Scotland. My daughter, Jemma, was born in the Simpson Memorial Maternity Hospital in Edinburgh, and it always tickled me that she was so vexed she didn't have a Scottish accent even though she was brought up down south. Rick Wakeman accentbearbring share on social

My eyes are green, and in one of them there is a splash of brown - apparently it is not a colour, but a freckle! Sometimes I notice that one eyelid droops more than the other. Rick Wakeman apparentlybrowncolour Change image and share on social
I didn't enjoy 'Topographic Oceans' at all. It was a double album, and the truth is it was padded out, and I didn't like that. But I was a fan of Yes - still am - and as such, I'm entitled to say what I think. Rick Wakeman albumdoubleenjoy share on social
Actually, I only left twice. I left then, and then rejoined literally two years later for Going For The One. Rick Wakeman leaveliterallyrejoin Change image and share on social
