It's amazing how this album has grown on me.
It is a masterpiece.
+axlrosea675 I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but it has also grown on me a lot. The first time I listened to it, I hated it. I thought it was super cheesy, overindulgent, and way too long. But now I see the many strengths this album has. Albums like this absolutely need several listens before judging haha
I listened to it once and hated it, too much melodic stuff, boring. I decided to give it another shot but I couldn't even finish the CD1, I fuckin' HATE IT. Period. I just listen their old stuff, ADTOE was the last good album I heard from DT.
I bet you listen to angry metal while you flog your log don't you?
YTazzkickr01 you're an angry little fucker aren't you 😂
Jesus Mariscal what's wrong with angry metal. I love angry metal
Best Intro Ever
+Henrique Tassara I came here to comment the exact same thing!
+Loren Burrell Me too :D
+Henrique Tassara Sounds like something Heart would write
+Instrumedley I got an ELO vibe from the synth vocals and all
+Instrumedley I was thinking Kansas... ;)
One of the best songs they've ever done.
The intro part is soo Yes-influenced!
It's literally Tempus Fugit lmao
that bass line though
+Nabil Toumanari nice photo!
+Ricardo Martins thanks dude
Myung is The GOAT.❤❤❤❤
I love how at 0:44 - 0:55 mangini follows Rudess with the bow of his ride. Im going to try this syncing technique with our pianist in adv jazz band. Also i love the emotion this song gives.
Finally someone that seems to notice that
He's been doing this since his drum audition with DT. I simply love how he connects with all the other players (not just DT) as such musically, and his tireless attention to detail. Finally learned a cool lesson on why my high school band lost some of our competitions.
I love how this album is like a musical play without the acting. You could honestly probably put this on a stage pretty easily.
Queens Rych did it with operation mind crime
I actually got to see this live. They had like 8 projectors with animations showing the whole story. It was soooooooo good. When in the presence of it I was moved to anxiety, tears and relief. John's body language while playing exploded from him while playing. I oddly enough felt it was a wave every time he struck a chord or solo.
Its called a concept album
Probably my favorite song on the album. Time will tell.
My favorite song on this album as well Rohan Marathe!!!!!!!!
Years later and I consider this the best track from The Astonishing.
What did time tell you? I can only pick the top 3 songs, I can't choose one of them: This One, Three Days and A New Beginning
I never knew
Someone was out there
A long way from nowhere
Who could open my eyes
All of this time
While I was sleeping
The world changed around me
Now I've never felt more alive
I'm waking up
From a life left behind
To see what lies ahead
I'm waking up
Fate found a way
To bring them together
Once and forever
And won't let them go
Nothing I say
Can keep her from leaving
Her life has new meaning
I lost her a long time ago
I'm waking up
From a life left behind
To see what lies ahead
I'm waking up
I'm waking up
Now that yesterday's gone
Won't close my eyes again
I'm waking up
I'll plan to return well disguised
Make sure that I'm not recognized
Tomorrow a new sun will rise
And somehow I'll find you
Nothing will stand in my way
Soon I will see you again
I'm waking up
From a life left behind
To see what lies ahead
I'm waking up
I'm waking up
Now that yesterday's gone
Won't close my eyes again
I will never look back
I'm waking up
You'll be her shadow as she moves my son
But she can never know you're there
She is alone and rebel guards are everywhere
I'll keep her safe from all danger
Won't let her out of my sight
Did I fail to mention my honest intentions?
This is the chance I deserve
Heed my words justice will be served
Thanks
Great!
Jesus Christ God resurrected king 👑 is the answer
Dream Theater are the Best!
+The Meme Team one does not simply listen to Dream theater!
I agree with you 100%. If your a musician looking to be inspired DT makes you better just by listening .
+Sd Ny Being a musician for 10 years, they make me want to stop composing altogether and just listen to them forever. I've been making music for myself the past several years because most bands I listened to always left something to be desired in one way that another band made up for it, but Dream Theater comes up with such amazing stuff that I don't feel the need to do that as much anymore. I know I'll never put down a guitar, but damn it if they don't make it hard for me to play anything half as good. It's very humbling. That being said, they've still been a huge help with learning how to introduce progressive elements to my music.
+Jon Warrell Nah man. I am composing still, and there are still much Dream Theater has not done. You should not give up because you feel bested by them. Maybe your music won't be as technical and complex, but you can still be creative.
Looking back on that comment, I probably could've worded it differently but overall wasn't totally serious. Nothing can really make me stop playing or composing because I still come up with stuff I like to play and I like others to hear. However, I still stand by what I said about being humbled by Dream Theater. They truly are a great inspiration and influence no matter what I say.
DT is the only band that can write albums and late their fans discover it for decades ..from a hater to active listener and then extreme lover ! Embrace it ladies and gentlemen!
5:00 minute mark in "A Life Left Behind", very dramatic and cinematic. Really loving this album more with every spin, and its taken a lot of spins to 'get it'.
I love the piano and acoustic guitar on this album! It reminds me a bit of Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, one of my favorite albums. But of course it's a completely unique album as well. :D
+Rebecca Ashley Peiffer Waaaaaaay to much of it. This should have been called Jordan Rudess and Friends. Almost every song starts with keyboards.
+Mike B You say....as a comment to a song that doesn't even start with keyboards. XD lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lvbYtj_nP14/VYzvja93fDI/AAAAAAAAAP4/Hmbd1ETi120/w506-h750/bnkhYlG.gif
True. Take this song. It starts out like Yes and turns into a song like Faithfully never returning to the original good part of the song. The album as a whole sounds like Jordan had all the control.
+Mike B While I agree that the beginning is a really cool part and I wish they'd done more with it, I also really like the rest of the song. I wouldn't call it the bad part of the song just because it's more keyboard heavy. In fact, I've always wanted Dream Theater to focus on the keyboard more so this is kinda perfect to me :D
***** XD I laughed out loud at your response. I agree, it would be weird to hear someone saying "oh man, this album was too guitar-focused, almost every song started with guitars!" So what's wrong with keyboards mixing it up a bit? My only complaint is the same complaint I have for every Dream Theater album: I wish there was more bass. But we can't have it all, and I'm happy that keyboards are at least getting their time in the sun :D
I like the song which can spread the positive energy. After listening to this song, I feel my life is full of hope, everything is possible.
LaBrie is definitely back! Astonishing performance!
He's not. Saw 'em live. He can't even sing the songs in this album.
@@MrCocoH1 Actually he can I tem live this album and the most recent tour he was great, you on meth
@@danmulcahy6044 When The Astonishing came out I went to see them and LaBrie couldn't sing the songs. He couldn't sustain notes, and not even reach higher notes in songs like Our New World.
You on meth though.
@@MrCocoH1 I saw them on the astonishing tour he was great, I saw them on this last tour he was great you are on meth
@@danmulcahy6044 Ok dude, sure.
4:40 onwards is a perfect tone shift from Faythe to Arabelle and Daryus. Great writing.
Even though I liked every single DT album, I've always been one of those who prefered the early DT. But this song... this ENTIRE ALBUM... I seriously think it's my favorite of theirs.
Already got my tickets for the show, this is gonna be one night to remember :') Thank you for this album DT, thank you so, so much.
3:42 One of LaBrie's best moments on the album imo
+FearTheBlades This whole album was like a big middle finger to all that LaBrie haters out there. James absolutely killed it.
@@Beefnhammer That's because he has the help of the studio.
THAT DRUM FILL in 1:19 had me shit in my pants.
Reminds me a bit of Tempus Fugit from YES
+Les Young same key too
+Les Young Yes! It´s like a tribute! I love it!
Reminds me a bit of Hiromi Uehara, but i don't know exactly why
That's so true !
I now right
Adore this song and album, nobody will ever change my mind, thanks Dream Theater :)
one of the 14 songs I actually liked on the album
DT are not only Prog Metal Gods but musically. gods. For me every album has great song's on it. Still certain albums every song is amazing.
James's vocals is soooooo astonishing here)
One of The longest songs on the album, a measly 5:50 by DT standards, very major and one of several ballads. Very different from what we're used to from them but its as dense and perfectly composed as anything they've done. I find this song very moving emotionaly as well as enjoying it on a purely musical level. Album takes a few listens to get in to but damn its so good once you do.
This song is so amazing.
I went right back to it after I finished the album. (Which is amazing, by the way)
The singing style during the chorus gives me a '90s Boy-band vibe, but in a completely good way. So catchy, melodious, yet so heavy and complex.
I think I'll cry, so beautiful
The whole album's a huge undertaking and DT have done an amazing job!!!
This song gets better and better every time I listen to it, and I loved it upon first listen! So happy with this album.
I love this album a lot. I managed to catch them live twice on this tour and it was amazing. I can listen to the first hour or so of this album over and over again. It's a masterpiece
i love the intro, man MM sounds amazing. i love how he play every note on the drums.
can't wait to see DT in DC.
Everything for dream theater songs, is the best...
vocal n all music is perfect...
Dream theater is the best forever...
love u all guys, keep dreaming alive...
Fantastic ! A true perfection of what the music have to be !
My favorite of the entire album. Why couldn't this be the classic 12 minute DT epic though? So much potential in the front and near the end...
+DRW1107 While I do think this album is great, I do miss the 10 minutes songs they do.
+brazwen its over 2 hours guys, please stfu
Whoa! Settle down. I'm not hating on the album. I like the album. I just miss the 10 minutes song that's all. It's like having a GF away on holiday and you miss her.
the album is one song
get over it
:)
Simplemente fabulosa... Que intro!
Uma das melhores, mas depois fica chata...
Very nice song!Very nice vocals and music!
fantatstic intro, fantastic song and after hearing 3 times: Fantastic album!!!
Hou just have to love this! best album ever!
great great great.lovely sound.great recording
You'll be her shadow as she moves,my son
But she can never know of it
She is alone and rebel comes from everywhere
James's voice in that stanza is magnificent! 🤘
The opening is so... YES! Nice!! :D
Exactly they took it from Yes ... What is the title ? Sorry i forgot
Tempus fugit@@johnrobert385mm
This is like the new best song in the history of music
Awesome intro.... so far the best song of this album as per my point of view... beautiful title and lyrics..
Favorite song of The Astonishing!
In my mind this is maybe the best song to promote the album to a wider audience. The spicy intro that cures ADHD, the melodic middle part that melts even the most cynical heart and the dramatic ending that leaves you craving for more. Just perfect! But judging by the view count, I know shit... BTW, Mangini is great on this song!
I think that would be Lord Nafaryus, to get the attention of a wider audience, but pointing to those who listen to metal.
About Mangini, yeah. He is great in this song. But Richard Chycki is still an idiot who makes the drums sound like a stone. xd
WOW ! I love it ! Can't wait to see them in concert in April in Quebec City !!!
Marvelous song
No one can do it better than Dream Theater :3
The intro reminds me of the music from Assassins Creed 2 when you're in Florence for some reason.
oh my god 4:38 ... oh my god! That section. That movement!
just like JP said on youtube - definitely Yes-like! Superb!
This. Is. Everything! Well done, guys. Well done!
Amazingggggg
Can't wait to see this live.
really nice of them to put the entire album on youtube! :)
One of my fav off this album
Oh how I love how they bow to all their influences Yes,ELP,King Crimson,Kansas,the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Toto etc. Still make some of the most intense music in prog. Omg this tune brings tears on its sheer musicality and emotional power!!! Omg!!! The very last keys what?
profundamente apaixonada por essa música
Instant classic!
What a song, divine!
Love love love love love
Such a pretty verse melody!
Images and Wordy song. Instant like.
One of the best songs on the album
❤😍❤Congrats from Brazil!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow !! Great song !! See You in Copenhagen !!!!!!!!!!!!
Fucking amazing song. So much great stuff on this album; I'm extremely impressed. Good story, interesting world, great music. Good shit DT! Can't wait to see you guys in concert soon!
3:33 holy shit Mangini...i cant get enough of this song and this album, great work Dt...very nice job, astonishing 🤘🏻✌🏻
This is what I find outstanding about DT - the big variations of the instrumentation in many parts of their songs/albums, because it totally wipes out the repetitive feel (atleast for me it does).
Prob my all time fav song from them!
casi lloro cuando la escucho en vivo cx
la amé
Probably, best song of the album.
my my this song brings tears to my eyes
My little girl love this song!
"I'm waking up!"
much love
I'm at, what, my 7th listen-through or something, and still there are new songs that I'm taking notice of as being very good. Really, this is a masterpiece that has no equal. Not even Beyond the Red Mirror, though I'd call the individual songs better.
ibaaaaalwig ka talaga dream theater, dabesweng
Je suis un très grand fan de ce groupe
Oh my god that intro is so beautiful
amazing intro
I have been Astonished by this album, and I have all DT albums ever published :-)
Perfect INTRO!!!!!!!!!
Love the chorus... really enjoying this album. Very melodic and a change of pace. I don't need 'Pull me Under' 15 times. :-) This is good stuff.
Best song on the whole album
oh beautiful chords :')
Coisa linda!
Best Intro Best Song👍
i love the intro
One of the best intros
Daaamn. This song is so sick ♫♫
This is what I like in Dream Theater!
John Myung... You are best...I'm so excited for going to see you soon.
Perfect combo from John & Jordan (y)
I really like the lyrics of this one, written intelligently.
What a song .. this is the music for the Type-1 civilization .. ! DT is the only one, this is proof .. !!
Best Intro ever agree
Eargasm
spettacolare
Intro Yes stile , amazing
+alex manso reminds me of Kansas :)
+Craig Carlton on other songs ,absoluty , but this one is Yes
I would love it if Dream Theater performed a continuation of Instrumedley to include this song's intro as part of it. Seriously it's one of the best goddamn sections of any music I've ever heard, in fact, it's actually one of my top five favourite song intros!! That should be known as an integral component for "prog" music!
I love Jordan Rudess
