Falling Into Infinity is actually my favorite DT album because it's runs the gamut, This is the last song on it and so darn good... It's exceptionally great live as it always was especially on the tour in '97.
Hi Guys, I have not heard this before. Absolutely love this !!! It's been a while since I listened to a track on here and went to buy it straight away .. but I just bought the album !!! I can't wait to play this again through my hi fi. The Rush vibes were brilliant and that mid section solo is wonderful. I rarely buy an album for 1 track, but this I know will be worth it, especially if the rest of the album is this good and I suspect it is. Thankyou for playing this, damn that was good !!! Byeee Jim X
Happy New Year Jim , hope you're doing well. I can tell you this DT is different than anything else they recorded. Listen and we can talk about it ... 🤘proggy greetings Rudi 😃
@@rudolfbecker4313 Rudi !!!!!! I am well thankyou. I did reply to you not too long ago on another post but don't know if you saw it. Yes, Happy New Year to you my friend. The album arrived today. I was looking at the track listing. Loads of tracks and a few epics on there including track 1. I want to hear this last track again first that's on here. It is just brilliant. Then I will play the whole album. I will certainly let you know what I think, but it seems like a forgone conclusion, as this is so different, and if like what I've already heard ..then this is going to be a belter !! Cheers Rudi , lovely to hear from you again. Take care. Jim 😀👍
Man, haven't heard this in years! Great tune, always loved this album. Great reaction guys!
Falling Into Infinity is one my favorite albums by Dream Theatre. This song is one of the best on this album.
Nothing beats the album
Images and Words though.
Awake is still my favorite.
@@carlgibbons5777 Yes, that is another great album.
The Astonishing by Dream Theater also received a lot of criticism.
Saw DT open for Yes in September of 2004 at the Allentown in Pennsylvania. I'm at best a casual fan of DT. James singing voice is fine when he actually sings. Unfortunately he yells a lot which I find irritating. Have to agree with Alexia. However on this song, he definitely sounds good!
Here was the set list from the night I saw them open for YES during Yes' 35th Anniversary Tour and they did this song!!!!👍
Dream Theater setlist:
Overture
About to Crash
Learning to Live
Machine Messiah
Trial of Tears
Stream of Consciousness
Act II: Scene Eight: The Spirit Carries On
Solitary Shell

Losing Time/Grand Finale
Happy New Year BMac ... this looks to me like a pretty soft setlist ... Being a great DT fan from beginning on I understand that people criticize James .. but I'm glad MP is back.
Here is my setlist of the probably best of my 18 DT concerts, back in 2002 in Düsseldorf - and evening with Dream Theater:

And different than many american concert halls, you had to stand in the infield ... but there were seats .... where I later had to go .. it was just too much😆🤘
Hi From the UK NicnLex. I love listening to your reactions. You both have a musical empathy which is contagious and adds to the enjoyment. The guitar solo on this track reminds me of "In the Dead of Night" Also, it must have been an influence on John.
First listen to them, must dig deeper. Bit concerned that your absence indicated a problem? Good you're OK and Happy new year. I'm suddenly into IQ. Saw you'd covered a couple of tracks, but please, even for your own consumption try Road of Bones. So far I've only listened to Disc 2 but it's spectacular... Constellations is magical as a starter!
Loved watching Alexia react. To some of your favorite music. Really 3 great tracks very fulll and rich. Great guitar and really loved the bass players groove. Great stuff. ❤️
Great reaction! There is a live version of "Trial of Tears" in which they played a segmet of "Xanadu" by Rush (I think is the version on "Live at Budokan")...
The one with a different opening? That's Luna Park I believe, Budokan is normal.
@@scorpiusbalthazar4327is in Breaking the Fourth Wall. In Luna they didn’t play Trial of Tears
Ohhh yess! I really miss DT reactions on your channel!
I'm a big fan of Alice Cooper and Dream Theater. Derek Sherinian played on one of my most favorite albums by Alice Cooper, The Last Temptation. I discovered Dream Theater 15 years after Alice. I think that's cool.
Little does she know James LaBrie’s undeniable talent has earned him recognition and accolades throughout his career. He has been praised by critics and fans alike and has received several awards for his outstanding contributions to the music industry.
Hey Nick & Lex,
Hoping that all is well and that Lex's getting over her cold and she is feeling much better now!! I'm doing well and hoped that you both have seen my welcome back comment on that Walter Becker reaction page that I had sent on Monday night? Hey Nick, My first time that I was aware of this Dream Theater track that Lex had reacted to and thanks again, Nick, So, It was a part of a 21min 5 song eepic mini medley called Schmedley Wilcox and it was taken from their Chaos In Motion 2007-2008 DVD during their Systematic Chaos Tour where they took 5 epic long songs from 4 of their albums to make an amazing mini medley that's "So Good" that you both need to please react to it sooner rather then later and you won't regret it either and thanks in advance!! Sending you all love & prayers for good health & happiness!! Can't wait to hear from you soon!!
Thanks & Keep Rockin'!!,
Walter - 🤘❤🙏🤘
P/S. Here's the link for this song!! Schmedley Wilcox; #nicknlexrequest ;th-cam.com/video/0Chy0KVPOqo/w-d-xo.html
On the Rush's 40th anniversary release of Farewell To Kings, Rush asked Dream Theater to cover Xanadu.
With MIKE MANGINI ! THE BEST DRUMMER
Girl is trying so hard not to laugh of the faces of the other at 14 minutes kkkkkkkkk
that ascending guitar melody at the very end reminds of sax solo at the end of PF's crazy diamond
For me this was their first real long epic song .. but it didnt have an eleaborate guitar solo .. much different than what they were with later albums
The 'Marles' high tails it out of there at time mark 18 seconds! 🤣🤣
That was really good! After 2 notes, I was like, Rush influenced :D.
is the line: this is busy
This album is amazing! This could be one of their best albums with Trial of Tears, Hell's Kitchen, Lines in the Sand, Raise the Knife, New Millenium. And I love that they separated Hell's Kitchen from Burning My Soul on the final cut! I really wish I could listen to more Dream Theater albums with Derek!
You forgot Peruvian Skies! Most popular track on the record.
Don't forget that Derek Sherinian teamed up with Portnoy to form Sons Of Apollo with Bumblefoot, Jeff Scott Soto, and Billy Sheehan. They made epic music also.
I've bought the first album, I saw them live ... they simply didn't get close to the old DT stuff ... probably interesting for those who don't know DT at all or only the Mangini era
Nick & Lex: You need to review Steven Wilson's new album Harmony Codex, more specifically the final song on the album called Staircase.
Where do i find a girl like that?? Such a nice couple!!
How kind; thank you! 💗
I love the full album, but must admit that I prefer the demo version of the album which is a double instead of a single disc. The production on the demos isn't as clean, but the additional songs and differences in the existing songs make up for a muddier sound.
Till this day I think that Pertucci's solo on ToT is the best he ever wrote or played live. I like FII but i dont think it's DT's best album. It's different and it's good.
But man... that F solo...
By the way.....Happy New Year!!!!
DREAM THEATER! FINALLY! 😆
The middle section is In The Dead of Night of UK ( Allan Holdsworth) copy
did you skip all my commentary?
@@NicknLex si si ! Perdon !! Lo primero que dijiste fue eso ! Sos un genio .
Love the álbum. Trial of tears is probably the best, but everything is so musical. To be honest, I dont like the arrangments on Take Away My Pain, especially the drums. The acustic version we saw on tour was way better. I like all the songs, it is a very underated album
first!!!!
Knowing that Lex isn’t a big fan of James LeBrie, you should do a reaction to this song from his solo album: th-cam.com/video/RmnW2YJZ3OA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vciX3bKnTo47O7Bi
His solo albums are really good. But I never had a problem with his vocal style. But his voice was almost gone at "Dreamsonic" in LA :(.
Definitely more of the progressive side of DT than the metal side. James singing was definitely easier to listen to. And the guitar solo was definitely Holdsworth inspired.
Always been one of my favorite DT tracks.
So commercial
Dream theater is avant-garde hair metal!
I thought they were a Grindcore band with hints of Disco and Reggaeton.
Your momma is commercial
Gotta admit--- I'd like the band WAY more if they kept the more melodic tendencies. Images & Words is their crowning glory,IMO. They haven't been much in my wheelhouse since then... T
I'm surprised at her loving Rush but disliking DT... GL's voice vs JL voice both great and different voices . GL voice is great but not as clean and clear as JL voice... DT heavily influenced by Rush and you can seriously hear it in some songs, yet she don't like DT or its voice . Im just confused. Its kinda like saying I love Brian Johnson voice but can't stand Jeoff tates voice. I guess to each their own.
She likes DT but isn't a fan of JL's higher notes. Geoff Tate and Brian Johnson sound nothing alike.
@@Newworldman66 I guess you missed my point. I may have explained my comparison wrong. Getti lee has a high and odd voice but it sounds like rush ,no other voice would work. Getti's voice is high to but it's a well known fact that people hated his voice when it first came out. I also stated like what you want makes no difference to anyone. The big thing I want to clear up is Brian Johnson's voice is actually awful he says it himself but ac/dc wouldn't be them without it. Jeff Tate is one of my favorite singers ever and Queensryche wouldn't be them without him . This goes the same for dream theater. It is strange to me for people to separate bands like that. When dream theaters virtuoso musicians picked James it was because it fit there style they loved his sound and made him their front man. If you think they were wrong that doesn't mean nothing to me just seemed strange to me . If you don't like it that is totally cool. I actually met JL, BJ,JT,and GL their all down to earth and never once once bragged on themselves really cool guys.
So that’s why this is my fave album by then, it’s more commercial. If it’s more pink Floyd I’m gonna drop it I don’t like Pink Floyd lol 😉
I watched further and it got worse I really don’t like Rush or yes either lol guess I’m gonna have to stop listening to this album forever 🙁
Welcome back guys! :D
The reason why the band used a different logo; the album was done by Graphic artist/Photographer Storm Thorgerson ("Hipgnosis"). Apparently Storm doesn't use other peoples logos when creating his art, so he or his studio created the logo on the album. I would have just taken the art, and then added their logo after, before printing :p.
Yeah this album when it debuted, many of us DT fans didn't know how to take it. Yes it was more commercial, and we wouldn't know the "story" till the documentary in the next Live DVD (the extra documentary) where Portnoy said he was under a lot of stress and almost quit the band; _Consequently, creative conflicts arose, with guitarist John Petrucci accepting the label's plea for change and drummer Mike Portnoy fighting against it._
_According to Lifting Shadows (Biography), Falling into Infinity was considered a commercial failure, failing to break any new ground for Dream Theater or increase their sales despite its more commercial direction. As a result of the creative and personal tensions experienced during the album's production phase, it has been described as the band's "most difficult album", and eventually led to their demanding to be free from record label interference for all future albums. Mike Portnoy has mentioned that if Elektra Records, Kevin Shirley, and Desmond Child were not involved in the making of the album, he would have made a "completely different record". In 2007, the band released a demo version of the album reflecting Portnoy's original song arrangements and track listing, including a live rehearsal of the original "Metropolis Pt. 2"._
Originally it was going to be a double CD, with tracks; _"Raise the Knife", "Where Are You Now", "Cover My Eyes", "Speak to Me", "The Way It Used to Be", and "Metropolis Pt. 2", the latter of which was later expanded into its own album, with the rest being included on the 1999 fan club CD "Cleaning Out the Closet"._
Speak to Me & Cover My Eyes (Live) is pretty amazing and would shock both of you, and Raise the Knife was an Epic much like Metropolis, crazy changes in the middle of the track, which was also amazing live.
For me at the time; "Hells Kitchen/Lines in the Sand", "Take Away the Pain", "Just Let Me Breathe", "Trial of Tears" were the saving grace, but I grew into the shorter song oriented tracks (except "Burning my Soul" with the _voice box_ effects).
I can remember me and a co-worker from Brazil at Tower Records were talking about how previous albums had a more punchy intro to their albums. But I enjoy the album much more now. Always saw Derek as a Metal version of _Jan Hammer_ as they both sound like "guitarists" on keyboards. You have to checkout *Platypus* (on your shelf) with Ty Tabor on guitar and vocals (Kings X), Rod Morgenstein on Drums (Dixie Dregs, Winger), John Myung on Bass & Derek on the Keys (the album "Ice Cycles" from 2000). They later became *Jelly Jam.*
So now you have to do "Erotomania" with the rest of the Suite; "A Mind Beside Itself" from Awake!
- Glad Lexi enjoyed it! Welcome home N&L :).
I agree with you except for Take Away The Pain, therefore I loved from beginning Peruvian Skies ... saw them several times play it live and enjoyed when they included the Enter Sandman Riff .... and the intro of Hollow Years on Budokan live is epic 🤘
@@rudolfbecker4313 Hi Rudi! Happy Nuke Yearimean New Year!
Well "Take Away the Pain" hits me in the Feelies, as that is (edit:) Petrucci's track about his Father 🥲. Also reminds me of my own Papa' 😊.
Yeah Peruvian Skies is a good one too, though a VERY sad topic as well.
Welcome back! Feels like it has been a month or more since you guys put out a video! Nick really glad you shared this with Alexia and the channel! I really need to listen to this entire album! A shame I have not done that yet! I feel
Like i am missing a gem! I have to make it happen somehow! Glad you had safe travels and are back!
@@ericmeredith8754 Good to see you too Eric! :D
