Indeed . Those vocal harmonies are what does it for me in this song. It's that 60s 70s vibe with keeping it modern. I don't think I have heard anything being done similar .
Lyrics In a purple robe Throne of needles Sailing to the sun Reaching higher Sleeping on a bed Of broken bottles Passing night and day Wasting hours Rings on the water caressing your hair Touch of a mother so gently aware Let the journey entice you to stay Draped in water seduced to immerse Lying on the grass By the river Captured by the moon Barely breathing Dreaming while awake Moving slowly Waiting for a change Never coming Can you see the danger Within my eyes Everyone’s a stranger Wearing disguise Rings on the water caressing your hair Touch of a mother so gently aware Let the journey allure you to stay Let the water seduce you to immerse Writer(s): Lars Ahlund, Leif Stenberg, Joel Ekelof, Martin Lopez, Marcus Jidell
On their page there are lyrics for two songs only. Until someone decides to copy these ones from the album or type them down, guess we need to pay attention to the song.
Everyone is going to see it or rather hear it through their own lenses/filters. Sorry. It doesn't make it any lesser than. I respect your admiration/confidence in the band though and I can dig where you are coming from non-the-less. We are both right though.
Both On An Island and Lucidity are recalling a past in both their lives, one sounds sad because they were looking back onto dark times and the latter is sad because those good times are gone, share the same vibe though.
The spiritual energy of this song. It's so beautiful. The words spoken by the vocalist was so ethereal. The authenticity of the instruments completed it all for me. Absolutely masterful.
That's what I call having musical intelligence. The band Soen expresses the sonic perfection so accurately that it's unthinkable not to be moved by it.
Discovered this song last night and I could'nt stop listening to it. Then I woke up this morning and was announced that my grandmother passed away. I feel like I could not have found a better song to express how this all feels... Such a hauntingly beautiful piece of music. Thank you Soen.
and of course Katatonia .but this album is way better than the last ones from opeth-katatonia. oooh and as much i like this album the same i don't "understand" tools music.can't say i dislike but...this is way better for MY ears.
Oh gods when a sultry blues riff weaves through a doomy ballad and ties it together with generations of sadness, you get an insight into the incredible ways that ancestry enfolds us
I heard this song just couple of days before in vinyl store in Istanbul. I didn’t found any of needed records and was pretty frustrated about it, and then this song started. I had listened her till the end and leave the store with the think that nothing greater will not happen to me in this place 😁
Wow...I recommend a quality set of headphones and multiple listens. Such amazing production value and musicianship. Thanks for sharing with us SOEN. I hear you.
I'm so sorry to disagree, but this band DEMANDS not headphones, but a whole audio set so you can not only hear, but FEEL every instrument: the bass on your chest, the snare and drums in you body and all the band I'm your ears, arms and head.
You can see how special this song is to the band, and how into the music every musician is cuz of how they close their eyes while playing. There’s nothing more beautiful to me than seeing artists get into the music like that.
@@lkwalden7 It's definitely a bigger jump than average, with Lacquer having no guitars, and Vanishers barely having any. But I think it fits pretty snugly in their discography. :)
Transportandome. A las galaxias mas lejanas del infinito con esta canción solo los conocedores saben en q nave nos transportamos.al viaje donde algun dia partiremos..❤
Accidentally ran across this in 2021 for the first time. To think I've been listening to Opeth all these years and never made the former-drummer connection before. Definitely getting a lovely Opeth vibe, musically -- vocally, this is in a vibe of its own. I think this may be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Yesterday listening a spotify list, this song appeared, I thought it was Opeth. Today, when I looking for it again, I have discovered this spectacular band. I'd love it
omg 6:03 took my soul... it had to run somewhere to cry uncontrollably under the spell of that poets wail... (i wasn't ready for such a peal of pure feeling getting poured out just then...💖)
I've been checking their work since their debut album but I have to say that this song has convinced me. It's really beautiful, the composition is more fluent now.
This song is simply awesome, a master piece. Recently, I saw them in a show, is one of the best concerts I've ever seen. It was a dream come true listening Joel singing and give all his heart when he sang.
It gives me the vibe that Martin is a broken musician. He pours a lot of agresivity in some songs, but in others, like this, he shelters in his drums. I dont know, he is an incredibly sensitive musician, skilled and just one of his kind
Every time a new band shows their talent and beauty, people feel threatened and become jealous. Negative comments ensue accompanied with petty and demeaning comparisons to other bands. Good god people give the band credit! They sound creative and amazing!
Dang that slide guitar gives it a very.. country sound but it's not country at all. It's like you took the heartbreak and melancholy in country songs and put it into a new context. I love it!
Frankly, compared to their other soft or melodic songs, this takes the cake as the best one. Vocals are awesome, and the guitar makes the atmosphere so floaty. However, i'm really hankering for a giant heavy song much like void. We'll have to see what they have in store. From the ending of this video, the album might have a more ominous feel.
This is beautiful . Non the less, it sounds like a hybrid of many bands but all in all , if you know how to listen , you'll notice the different nuances . Brilliant and enchanting music on its own . ❄️
Love the band love the music love the moment that I discovered them but I have a special message for the guitarist....your solos really take me to a place man....I can see that you put your whole soul in to what your doing...absolutely sensational solo...every one I've heard...so much feel....just the right notes...no more no less....no skill flexing....just pure creativity....and it's beautifull
One of the most beautiful songs ever made.
For sure. 4:18 says enough
Indeed . Those vocal harmonies are what does it for me in this song. It's that 60s 70s vibe with keeping it modern. I don't think I have heard anything being done similar .
Yep
If Pink Floyd and Opeth had a baby. It would be Soen.
And Katatonias little brother
This music sounds far too mature to be a baby. ;-)
💯💯💯

Best comment I've read on music!
Lyrics
In a purple robe
Throne of needles
Sailing to the sun
Reaching higher
Sleeping on a bed
Of broken bottles
Passing night and day
Wasting hours
Rings on the water caressing your hair
Touch of a mother so gently aware
Let the journey entice you to stay
Draped in water seduced to immerse
Lying on the grass
By the river
Captured by the moon
Barely breathing
Dreaming while awake
Moving slowly
Waiting for a change
Never coming
Can you see the danger
Within my eyes
Everyone’s a stranger
Wearing disguise
Rings on the water caressing your hair
Touch of a mother so gently aware
Let the journey allure you to stay
Let the water seduce you to immerse

Why aren't there any official lyrics yet?

Lyrics for Lucidity are now also on their page, cheers
Stoned Sloth
Yes they are and I just rectified the ones posted. Thank you so much. Cheers!:)
coitinsforyourocky (tough user name:))
I agree. :)
This sounds like Soen. Not Opeth, not any other band. Only Soen. And it's hauntingly beautiful.
Everyone is going to see it or rather hear it through their own lenses/filters.
Sorry.
It doesn't make it any lesser than.
I respect your admiration/confidence in the band though and I can dig where you are coming from non-the-less.
We are both right though.
well being that they are a "supergroup" it's not surprising to hear familiar sounds
Music is worth little if it isn't built on something already done. That's how the progress is made.
well... this is very good but honestly Pink Floyd are really around the corner
Let's just agree to disagree then :) I cannot find Opeth in them. Nevertheless, one of the finest bands out there!!
Besides the vibes, Opeth, Floyd and whatever you want to mention, his voice is absolute velvet
David Gilmour - On an Island
Both On An Island and Lucidity are recalling a past in both their lives, one sounds sad because they were looking back onto dark times and the latter is sad because those good times are gone, share the same vibe though.
Be told some other bands to comparison, Tool, Porcupine Tree, Riverside, but not important.
These lads are like the jazz of metal. They should not be compared to other bands. They are incredible in their own right.
This is soooo far from jazz, but I'd say this is a soul-metal song with elements of prog?

I love how subtle Lopez's drums are, discreetly accentuating with some tiny adornments here and there, but never dominating. Really superb
Yeah. There is certainly an artistry to holding back and he has mastered it. Also the guitars too.
This song randomly popped up on my Spotify playlist today . I’ve already replayed it 10x
x2 Maybe when this songs pops on your spotify randomly ur doing things right? jaj. Just maybe…
Why does this song end?
Discovered this song last night and I could'nt stop listening to it. Then I woke up this morning and was announced that my grandmother passed away. I feel like I could not have found a better song to express how this all feels... Such a hauntingly beautiful piece of music. Thank you Soen.
I hope you're feeling better a year later. To stardust, eternal ✨
@@Swashbuckler9x can't believe it's already been a year but i'm definitely feeling better about all of this. Thank you friend!
Top notch is seon. I'm an old rocker from the 60s añd a drummer ! This band has it all .!!
Thank You Spotify. For helping me find this gem!
Many influences,,,,great song...GILMOUR ...PINK FLOYD ..OPETH ..TOOL...this is the PROG¡¡¡¡¡¡ thanxs...SOEN
Fabián Sanhueza Vera Hey it's you
and system of a down or Serj Tankian...
I hear some Steve Wilson influence in this too.
and of course Katatonia .but this album is way better than the last ones from opeth-katatonia. oooh and as much i like this album the same i don't "understand" tools music.can't say i dislike but...this is way better for MY ears.
you forgot opeth influences, oh wait, martin lopez, ex-opeth drummer plays here...

Headphones are an absolute must! I always cringe when I try to show somone a song and they play it on their tinny laptop speakers
I'm so sorry to disagree, but this band DEMANDS not headphones, but a whole audio set so you can not only hear, but FEEL every instrument: the bass on your chest, the snare and drums in you body and all the band I'm your ears, arms and head.
Pure genius
I ADORE 🥺 this song, 😅
It sounds like rain falling on the skin...Softly soaked with tears...
very peculiar feeling..
r/oddlyspesific
The rain is crying?
You can see how special this song is to the band, and how into the music every musician is cuz of how they close their eyes while playing.
There’s nothing more beautiful to me than seeing artists get into the music like that.
This is the perfect example of how you make music, this is the required amount of soul and love it has to have.
It's been so long since I listened to a new artist that genuinely inspired me. But Soen hits the spot really well. Great band!
Dead End Kings rules 🤘
@@lkwalden7 Hell yea! I actually got recommended this song from a Katatonia song.
@@OffTheRailGaming That's awesome. I need to listen to Katatonia's newest album some more. Very different from previous stuff
@@lkwalden7 It's definitely a bigger jump than average, with Lacquer having no guitars, and Vanishers barely having any. But I think it fits pretty snugly in their discography. :)
I totally agree.
This is a life-giving song. And bless them, I don't think they realize how impactful Lucidity is to some of us metalheads.
What a gem! My ears are happy

Lopez!!!! glad to see you back...so much feel in his style
I agree. He was and always will be...... My favorite Opeth drummer. He is so sincere .
yes I miss his drumming in opeth. dynamics!
That bass tone is sexy.
That solo. Its the reason I bought a slide. I continue to come back to this song. Wow, I’m always in awe. There are no words
I love the face of Martin in the line: "Can you see the danger within my eyes".
Que voz! Que melodia!
Tem uma semana que eu escuto essa música direito, ela me toca de uma forma incrível!
Natália Superbi lo vengo escuchando toda una sema este temon!
Natália Superbi hay sangre charrúa en esa bateria!
Det er bedste nummer i verden

omg 6:03 took my soul...
it had to run somewhere to cry uncontrollably under the spell of that poets wail...
(i wasn't ready for such a peal of pure feeling getting poured out just then...💖)
Truly beautiful song.
Be prepared to stop what you're doing, and just let these men do some Beautiful things with your heart and soul.
A drummer can change everything this is the proof
Different from the standard Soen style, still very enjoyable...
Very Floyd/Gilmourish and similar to Opeth's A Fair Judgement.
yeah, even the drum fills are similar :)
i'd say very deep purple like specially the little solo part
You could say its a bit different than their standard style, but a couple of tracks on Cognitive had this vibe
As delicate as a flower, as soft as a cloud.
Marvellous.
I've been checking their work since their debut album but I have to say that this song has convinced me. It's really beautiful, the composition is more fluent now.
"Everyone’s a stranger wearing disguise..." and than that beautiful guitar solo:) They should let this man play more often really cool guitar player!
Congratulations for the musicality.
Parabéns pela musicalidade.
Saúdo do Brasil.
Simplesmente demais né irmão
Discovered your band today. And from the very first note I heard became a fan. ❤️
That voice though! Stellar vocalist
Me muero un poco más cada vez que lo escucho cantar...
Everything it needed and not an ounce more. Perfection.
This song is simply awesome, a master piece. Recently, I saw them in a show, is one of the best concerts I've ever seen. It was a dream come true listening Joel singing and give all his heart when he sang.
There are songs which are amazing, playlist, just hit you every-time you hear them, those eights and nines.
And then there are tens.
Damn.. Its amazing! :( I love this song! Can't wait the album.
It gives me the vibe that Martin is a broken musician. He pours a lot of agresivity in some songs, but in others, like this, he shelters in his drums. I dont know, he is an incredibly sensitive musician, skilled and just one of his kind
miles y miles y miles de alegrías y felicitaciones a Martín López por la iniciativa de esta mega banda, esta canción es vida!!!!
Thank you for the lovely concert in Athens, guys, you were top and amazingly friendly!
Haven't heard them until now. But, I gotta tell, they're perfect.
I fallow them since 2012 and this is the song I come back to the most.
soen gets me the flow feeling, really enjoying their new productions. Such 'wide' feeling in their sound..
First time listening to them, at 2:40 got some shivers. I'm happy to discover new bands that are able to make me feel different sensations!
One of the best album of the year \m/
Absolutely phenomenal!!!
Instant buy, wonderful blend between PF and old Opeth, I'm loving it! Congratz Soen! Big record!
contando los días para verlos el 20 de marzo
This is some pretty nice stuff, love the Katatonia, Floyd vibe on it...
One of the best songs I’ve ever listened
And one of the best records, too.
Perfect job
one of the best albums of 2017
this needs to be seen by more people.. alot more people.. so under rated
This is hauntingly beautiful 🖤
I absolutely love this song.
It really needed a stunningly beautiful guitar solo to close out the song I think.
how could anyone dislike this this song,its filled with emotions its like caressing ur brain with a flooding harmony
This is great! Can't wait to hear the album!

well after hearing the new album. I don't think anyone can compare them to tool anymore. they kinda have their own sound now.
lps star sounds like Pink Floyd, but that's a great thing to sound like!
The Forth one, Locus is even more Original
Well this is absolutely lovely

To me, this song is as good as Deep Purple's 'When a blind man cries'. That's a big thing to say....I know. Beautiful
It's a gigantic thing to say ! I would never afford to say that these two songs are close .Not in a million years !
I saw them last friday at the Neushoorn in Leeuwarden. It was great ,Joel has a beautiful voice and the rest of Soen is also great
AMAZING! Album of the Year!
Thanks!!!
Dang that slide guitar gives it a very.. country sound but it's not country at all. It's like you took the heartbreak and melancholy in country songs and put it into a new context. I love it!
Great song guys! Congrats! Keep it up!
Brilliant song, brilliant album.
Brilliant song. This band has continually impressed me and this album is no exception. Tour North America please!!!
When Heavy Metal & Jazz have a baby.....you get SOEN.
I'm a fan of these guys now.
Where the heavy metal and where the jazz?
just bought the new album but can't get past this song!
Hard copy? Doesn't it bring the lyrics?
i just purchased from Amazon mp3. i didn't get the physical album and everything.
Different and perfect! So much styles in just one song, can't wait for the album release!
best album this year, just ahead of riverside marvellous
All of a sudden, discovered this band... Wow it's great to see you again after a long time, Martin... And the vocalist sounds awesome... Great song ❤
Frankly, compared to their other soft or melodic songs, this takes the cake as the best one. Vocals are awesome, and the guitar makes the atmosphere so floaty.

Meh, The words beats all
One thr best and most beautiful songs o ever heard.
So soulful....
Боже, как прекрасно, до слез пробивает!
I came here because I was told that I would find a copy of Tool. I don't hear any of that, but I found an awesome band!
😎😎
Superb Vocals +10 & great songwriting.
The lyrics make perfect sense during the coronavirus lockdown
reeeeeeally nice song. beauty at it finest. love soen.
Beautiful track. This kind of has to be modeled after Gilmour's track "On An Island".
thank you. ive been hearing the album non stop.
excellent, guys. A very cosmic track.
Must luv Gandalf with a black hat... also the song is super chill and good vibes... perfection
David Gilmour - On an Island
suena igual no mames :(
/ // totally differents songs
Thanks for introducing me to another kickass song, my friend!
The riff progression yes, yet, completely different tunes.

This is beautiful . Non the less, it sounds like a hybrid of many bands but all in all , if you know how to listen , you'll notice the different nuances . Brilliant and enchanting music on its own . ❄️
Very underrated and under marketed song I have ever listened to. More power to Soen.
Love the band love the music love the moment that I discovered them but I have a special message for the guitarist....your solos really take me to a place man....I can see that you put your whole soul in to what your doing...absolutely sensational solo...every one I've heard...so much feel....just the right notes...no more no less....no skill flexing....just pure creativity....and it's beautifull
