Run with the Fox

"Run with the Fox" is a 1981 Christmas song written, composed, produced, and performed by Chris Squire and Alan White, with Peter Sinfield co-writing lyrics.

Both former Yes members, Squire and White recorded the song after a new band (XYZ with Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page) seemed unlikely to happen, and released the single under their own names as a collaborative piece.

Andrew Pryce Jackman, a childhood friend and frequent collaborator of Squire, was in charge of orchestration and since they had both been boy choristers with Barry Rose at St. Andrew's Church, Kingsbury, they contacted him to provide a boys choir to do the backing.

It features Dave Lawson (ex-Greenslade keyboardist) on keyboards, and Squire's then-wife Nikki on backing vocals.

Following "Run with the Fox", both musicians collaborated again in the band Cinema which ultimately led to the reformation of Yes.
