In my opinion, this is one of the absolute best Dream Theater songs ever produced! Amazing lyrics, magical melody lines, and outstanding vocals. Absolutely fantastic!
No other bands can even mimic all DT songs. Only these five maestros can. They have my sincere respect. I have always been a diehard fan of them since 1994 when I was 19 years old. My life and philosophy running deep inside of me will always be with DT
Like her father once said Love is not what you're given It is how you decide to live On the path you have chosen So together we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world I know you're scared and alone But we will face this together Through the innocence in your eyes They will live on forever In their memory we'll build a new world A better world Our new world We'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world Yeah together We'll build a new world A wondrous world Yeah We'll build a new world A bold new world
I loved DT from the first song I heard, they were also the first concert I went to with my much loved and lost sister! They hold a place in my heart nothing can replace! Long live DT!
I've been listening to these guys for about two decades now. This music never grows old. Whenever I put something on, an older album or a newer one, James's voice, Petrucci's guitar, the whole sonic experience just brings me back home. Genuinely love you guys. Thanks for keeping the dream alive. Truly. 🎸🎸🎸
+buek14 Nothing can be done against illnesses.. I've heard that they're likely to play again there in November, I'm not sure though, I know it's been a great delusion, but you can't blame the band
+robertolippi1 The organizers did not contact the fans in time, not even before 12 hours or so. Moreover they didn't even arrive to the city, which means it was obvious they won't make it and still, no SMS, nor e-mail, not any form of communication towards us. I have traveled 1200 kms there and back from Budapest to witness the show, money and time dropped to trash. Afterwards I was looking around, I found that 5 hours before the show would have started, a fan site in facebook shared the news about the cancellation... 2 hours before the show, Rudess put it on facebook too. Well, thanks... I'm not blaming LaBrie getting sick actually... But I could have appreciated something more than this. Show their face at least, play the show in instrumental, get LaBrie's parts from playback, jam something... or anything. Not just go by the city without letting us even know that. For instance, Nightwish didn't cancel the show when the vocalist was taken to hospital few hours before the show, nor when a whole festival was cancelled, they did make it. Bands usually cancel the shows right, but they inform the fans in time...unlike this joke.
Every album they remind me of why they have been my ultimate favorite band for over 27 years! Thank you DT for all of the incredible music and memories! Prog. Rock lives on despite so much lousy shit out there! And this guy Mangini...OMG...what a amazing addition to the band! Love him!
There is a big difference in making a piece with all the technique and professionalism, and there is another dimension when you do something simpler and from the soul, enjoying what you are, what you do and who you are.
Dream theater is the greatest band in existance. This video is exatly the type that needed. One that makes you bask in their glory and shows their appreciation back to the fans. Dream theater for life.
I think I stumbled upon dream theater sometime in mid 90's, and it has been a wonderful experience since then. it is more than obvious that dream theater does what it does, not for fame and fortune. but for the love of the art
I discovered them around the same time, after seeing Pull Me Under on Headbangers Ball and liking it I bought Images and Words, only to be completely blown away and discover what I still consider to this day one of the greatest albums by any band of all time.
@@100percentSNAFU Funny thing is I actually saw them once, in a small club outside of Ft Eustis in Virginia back in the late 80's .. I had no idea who they were, I had walked in during the middle of a set.. it was not until th e release of Images and words til I remembered it
This is a great song. As a singer and guitarist who has studied and played for many years, I enjoy the more complex arrangements Dream Theater has written. But we all know people didn't love the Beatles for their complexity. They loved their songs because they were memorable, and made them hum them throughout their days making them feel better.
This Album is really astonishing. Perfectly and beautifully sounds and Songs. I saw several times DT life and followed their career since the first Album. Why astonishing: What John Petrucci plays on his guitar takes my breathe away.
Can't wait to see DT an eleventh time in November when they come to Dallas. This song makes my spirit soar. The Astonishing shows a band that is pushing themselves; the creative spark is still alive, and mike Mangini has reinvigorated them. Love love love this!
This song by itself might not be the best DT have ever done. But i LOVE how it fits into the album. The moment when the main riffs kicks in is one of the most uplifting ones in their recordings!
+sidenotes Totally agree. It's the glorious ending of the story and this song really gives it the finishing touch of epicness. It's an explosion of joy...and that riff is easily one of the better 'happy' riffs Petrucci has ever invented :p
+sidenotes I don't think it fits into the album. Big showdown, Arhys dies, Gabriel can save Faythe just in time. And suddenly this cheesy rock song kicks in. I mean, it's supposed to be Gabriel, Faythe and Xander who are singing it and I can't help seeing them dancing happily around in circles like in a Disney movie as if nothing ever happened.
The Astonishing feels better and better the more often you listen to it. First time I though, what the heck, second time, well let's give it another try, third time I started singing. Now I listen to it almost every day:) damn amazing album. Well done my favorite band.
I almost can’t find the words to describe how amazing this song is. Think about it....has any other dream theater song ever given you “this” feeling?? I’m not saying it’s a better feeling than any other dream theater song. I’m just saying, they have NEVER written a song with THIS specific feeling to it. Euphoric, soaring, with just a tinge of bittersweet melancholy. I️t just blows my mind that after 28 years they can still provide us with fresh and new ideas. Simply the greatest band in existence.
Like her father once said Love is not what you're given It is how you decide to live On the path you have chosen So together we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world I know you're scared and alone But we will face this together Through the innocence in your eyes They will live on forever In their memory we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world, yeah Yeah, we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world Yeah together We'll build a new world A wondrous world Yeah We'll build a new world A bold new world
I'm 53...this is music by guys my age...there you go...Got drunk all wk end sent to old girl friends and shit...such a tough song just went nuts..good!
That's not auto tune. It's processed yes. But DT's vocals have always been processed. What you are hearing isn't autotune. It's more like a chorus pedal and/or multiples of the same vocal track laid on top of one another.
No mentions to drugs, sex, Satan and other stuff like that but positive lyrics... I love this band, and that guitar tone is just KILLER !! Thanx guys and keep rocking
He plays so many notes inaudibly mixed. He is technically very good but has no stage presence and he has no power to smash the table and yell: MORE BASS IN THE MIX!!! He should be more bossy like Chris Squire,considering only he and John are there from beginning
This has got to be the most infectious, hook-laden, amazingly melodic 𝘱𝘰𝘱 song that any prog band has ever written, while still retaining all the integrity this bunch of ingrates is renowned for. Man, this song is fvcking 𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘺! If you gotta get stuck with an earworm, there's no beating this one!
@@michaelflorczyk1394 Another cool choice would be Jamie King who has done a lot of stuff with BTBAM and The Contortionist. His records sound fantastic.

that riff. those big harmonies. such a great song. sometimes the collective sum of all that virtuoso doesn't equal great music.....but this album seems to be the best they've come out with in a while.
This new album has that major sounding airy prog hardrock like images and words. I'm glad to hear their sound liven up while still being heavy its what ive wanted for a long time.
What this amazing song is saying is the core of everything in life that WORKS: don't fight what you don't want .... build what you do. "Don't waste time fighting the bad guys ... create the alternative."
Cevin Moses Im sure that Mike thinks maybe this is a rest song not that any of the songs are even remotely challenging. DT will never be as they debuted. They are a shadow of their former selves.
dream theatre-no other band can even come close to d t ...they r professional musicians in every aspect..just a crowd pleasing group all around..luvved them since the 80 s and now theyr so on point with everything they do..the untouchables,is what ide nickname them..
Hey man! Nice to see a comment which doesn't hate on DT haha. In my opinion, they should make a new song developing the music of the end of DT (self titled album). Dunno if you've heard it, but after Illumination Theory ends, there comes a Rudess-Petrucci "easter-egg" and it's SO WONDERFUL. They should start a new album with that music and make a whole song
YES YES YES!!! I definitely agree with you sir! Rush and Dream Theater are also my two all time favorite Rock Bands Ever! I also love Pink Floyd and their music but I consider them to be a minor favorite band of mine whereas with Rush and Dream Theater, they are my two major favorite Rock Bands! All of them are amazing!!! 🎸🎤🥁🎹💙💜💕😍😀🥲😌
can't say i've changed or DT has changed but last night I was at their venue in Wiltern. 11 years being a fan and finally it was my time to see them. Wasn't what i expected, for 11 years DT has been always my way to disconnect from this world and get into myself but not last night....Couldn't feel the same without MP, it was just another band on stage😞 I hope i become a believer again and feel the same way i felt🙏🏻
I've followed DT since '89 and have all they have produced. This Astonishing is aptly named. It IS astonishing! So well put together! In my humble opinion DT has matured even more since Mangini arrived. I still love Porntoy of course. The concept Petrucci and the rest of DT put together is a masterpiece musically, mechanically, including the engineering. For those saying they miss the "old DT" you can still hear it. It doesn't have to be LOUD to be appreciated! RELAX and enjoy the music!
+Lawrence Seymour I got into DT last year and I've listened to pretty much nothing else since... their music is so diverse and fills so many niches, people just don't appreciate how multi-faceted they are.
+gotenstyle2 Thank you! This album shows how diverse and intelligent their music is. I think it also reflects on how their band has changed and evolved. If you watch the interviews they express how this concept came about. Certainly when I first listened I had to sit back and listen. It is indeed different. But if you listen closely they still have their particular complex prog sound. If you've ever been to a Cirque De Solei performance the music made me reminisce of those I've seen.
+Spooky “Scary” Skeleton Thank you! This album shows how diverse and intelligent their music is. I think it also reflects on how their band has changed and evolved.

But if you listen closely they still have their particular complex prog sound. If you've ever been to a Cirque De Solei performance the music made me reminisce of those I've seen. I'd say 90% of my music listening (as mush as 6 hours a day) is DT and I never tire of them! I never forget the first time I heard them on a rock station in So Cal. Pull me Under came on. I was like OMG who the F are THESE guys?
Sorry but this is really bad amateur drum sound and drum parts is not good enough for song, nothing special, I try to listen but I cant, what are these drums, like 80's pop rock band drum sound, this drums ok with acdc or kiss, yeah I like their sound but DT must be different.
Just saw The Astonishing Live last night! The Johns were playing the exact same guitars. Incredible show. HEY DT, I WAS THE GUY THAT YELLED "DT ARE GODS!"
"Our New World" Like her father once said Love is not what you're given It is how you decide to live On the path you have chosen So together we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world I know you're scared and alone But we will face this together Through the innocence in your eyes They will live on forever In their memory we'll build a new world A better world Our new world We'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world Yeah together We'll build a new world A wondrous world Yeah We'll build a new world A bold new world

the intro reminds me of Rock star movie starred by mark wahlberg. very 90s and feeling fresh. and having listened to the album, i found that Dream theater is wiser and mature. love it
"Our New World" Like her father once said Love is not what you're given It is how you decide to live On the path you have chosen So together we'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world I know you're scared and alone But we will face this together Through the innocence in your eyes They will live on forever In their memory we'll build a new world A better world Our new world We'll build a new world A better world We'll build a new world Our new world Yeah together We'll build a new world A wondrous world Yeah We'll build a new world A bold new world
I was so happy (?) when I heard this on radio, really only a few in my area know DT and this is perfect way to introduce it to them. And it was quite funny to hear that solo on air when 99% of songs that have a solo are just pentatonic runs. Petrucci is a God
As much as I hate to admit this, I like what the Edge does with solos. As a guitar player, I'm pretty sure I should saw my hands off now for saying that.
DT is indeed a huge band, they are Gods. Only a huge band has the power to divide their own fans, I see people saying "I hate this" and other people saying "I love this".. The Gods don't care to please you, they care to make great songs.
Rafaell Almeida I’m ten years old as of writing this, I’ve never liked really any form of metal, except that album by Black Sabbath “paranoid” I’ve always been into classical rock, prog rock, grunge, alternative rock, and mind twisting phycadelic crap, and mind twisting non phycadelic crap. But dream theater are excellent
el peor album para muchos de la banda es mejor que cualquier gran album de otra banda....sin ....ninguna duda una deliciosa balada ,esta vez con un tinte positivo melodico y muy pegajoso sin abandonar condimentaciones progresivas de la mejor banda de metal progresivo..............por algo son quienes son

Met these guys very early on in their careers in 93-94 at a local record store in Grand Rapids, Mi. Who new they would reach this greatness?🎤🎼🎸🥁

there needs to be another album coming out about a month age. this is not the new song. but it works.
What this amazing song is saying is the core of everything in life that WORKS: don't fight what you don't want .... build what you do. "Don't waste time fighting the bad guys ... create the alternative."
You have to respect a drummer who plays so fiercely that he wears safety glasses.
Cevin Moses his drum kit still sucks tho. its better suited for metal and not for ballads. also he doesnt show diversity in his drumming like portnoy
Cevin Moses Im sure that Mike thinks maybe this is a rest song not that any of the songs are even remotely challenging. DT will never be as they debuted. They are a shadow of their former selves.
They're probably actually to protect his eyes from the triggered purists that despise Mangini for existing
I think it's so he doesn't have to worry about his hair hitting him in the eyes... Dude has to be able to see that huge drumkit!
김오리 LMAO. MP left the band, get it over with. Or just follow MP band. 🤦♂️
Release this tour on bluray and take my Moneeeeeeeeyyyyy!!!!
Grandi, mi accompagnano ormai da quando ero militare
dream theatre-no other band can even come close to d t ...they r professional musicians in every aspect..just a crowd pleasing group all around..luvved them since the 80 s and now theyr so on point with everything they do..the untouchables,is what ide nickname them..
This is gonna be DT's new Anthem song at the end of every live show, so powerfull and for the fans a moment to sing along . This band is in my blood !
Hey man! Nice to see a comment which doesn't hate on DT haha. In my opinion, they should make a new song developing the music of the end of DT (self titled album). Dunno if you've heard it, but after Illumination Theory ends, there comes a Rudess-Petrucci "easter-egg" and it's SO WONDERFUL. They should start a new album with that music and make a whole song
I listen to this song every night before I go to sleep. Drunk dry or otherwise. Let’s build a new world a Bold New World.
Next to Rush Dream Theater is my favorite band. They're technically on point. Love the chemistry between John Petrucci and John Myung
YES YES YES!!! I definitely agree with you sir! Rush and Dream Theater are also my two all time favorite Rock Bands Ever! I also love Pink Floyd and their music but I consider them to be a minor favorite band of mine whereas with Rush and Dream Theater, they are my two major favorite Rock Bands! All of them are amazing!!! 🎸🎤🥁🎹💙💜💕😍😀🥲😌
Just saw Dream Theater Live for The Astonishing at the Riverside Theatre in Milwaukee with my dad. Totally amazing!
My best
can't say i've changed or DT has changed but last night I was at their venue in Wiltern. 11 years being a fan and finally it was my time to see them. Wasn't what i expected, for 11 years DT has been always my way to disconnect from this world and get into myself but not last night....Couldn't feel the same without MP, it was just another band on stage😞 I hope i become a believer again and feel the same way i felt🙏🏻
TroyC 88 i can see how you feel dream theater isn't the same without MP but Mangini is slowly getting better every record.
I've followed DT since '89 and have all they have produced. This Astonishing is aptly named. It IS astonishing! So well put together! In my humble opinion DT has matured even more since Mangini arrived. I still love Porntoy of course. The concept Petrucci and the rest of DT put together is a masterpiece musically, mechanically, including the engineering. For those saying they miss the "old DT" you can still hear it. It doesn't have to be LOUD to be appreciated! RELAX and enjoy the music!
+Lawrence Seymour I got into DT last year and I've listened to pretty much nothing else since... their music is so diverse and fills so many niches, people just don't appreciate how multi-faceted they are.
+gotenstyle2 Thank you! This album shows how diverse and intelligent their music is. I think it also reflects on how their band has changed and evolved. If you watch the interviews they express how this concept came about. Certainly when I first listened I had to sit back and listen. It is indeed different. But if you listen closely they still have their particular complex prog sound. If you've ever been to a Cirque De Solei performance the music made me reminisce of those I've seen.

But if you listen closely they still have their particular complex prog sound. If you've ever been to a Cirque De Solei performance the music made me reminisce of those I've seen. I'd say 90% of my music listening (as mush as 6 hours a day) is DT and I never tire of them! I never forget the first time I heard them on a rock station in So Cal. Pull me Under came on. I was like OMG who the F are THESE guys?
Porntoy.
Respect mangini, he has really helped this band, and he's been very good at playing the drums
YESSSS!!! I don't undertand the people that says is worse than Portnoy. \_o_/
@Claudio Stucchi Mangini saved Dream Theater in 2011!!!
Helped???? Haaa
@@bigworm92035 of course. Mangini saved DT
Sorry but this is really bad amateur drum sound and drum parts is not good enough for song, nothing special, I try to listen but I cant, what are these drums, like 80's pop rock band drum sound, this drums ok with acdc or kiss, yeah I like their sound but DT must be different.
Mr. Fastfinger is like a Fairytale. So Great. This Band has offered many Great albums to Fans. God Blues all on them and their Families. Amen.
So God Bless all Bandmembers and their Families.
Saw them in Indianapolis on the anniversary of Scenes From a Memory anniversary. So awesome. Incredible musicians.
I kept thinking, this song is much too soft for DT. But now I really like it. It's fresh, it's melodic, it's creative
what a concept...I think you got it
Rhythmically it's dope... Three 4/4 bars followed by a 3/4
@@findJLF potayto potahto
Avizo Khatsü yeaa
That's what I like about this band. They drift in and out of different rock and metal genres to fit the song.
Just saw The Astonishing Live last night! The Johns were playing the exact same guitars. Incredible show. HEY DT, I WAS THE GUY THAT YELLED "DT ARE GODS!"
"Our New World"
Like her father once said
Love is not what you're given
It is how you decide to live
On the path you have chosen
So together we'll build a new world
A better world
We'll build a new world
Our new world
I know you're scared and alone
But we will face this together
Through the innocence in your eyes
They will live on forever
In their memory we'll build a new world
A better world
Our new world
We'll build a new world
A better world
We'll build a new world
Our new world

We'll build a new world

Ok
I have only heard this now. Unbelievable song. Absolutely Dream Theater at their best. 2024
Every one is perfect in their parts...that makes the band called Dream Theatre excellent..!

Not a big fan of the new album, but I still have an immense respect for this band. Glad they are still climbing and growing in popularity.
Very talented and very underrated!
+Andrew Catania i highly agree to this
Fuck guys they ain't underrated nor talented they are extremely virtuoso talent ...
Dream Theater has been my musical hero since my high school days. Until now they are my favorite band and always amaze me to no end..
the intro reminds me of Rock star movie starred by mark wahlberg. very 90s and feeling fresh. and having listened to the album, i found that Dream theater is wiser and mature. love it
This is probably their best music video since the Awake and Falling into Infinity era.

Up, up
I was so happy (?) when I heard this on radio, really only a few in my area know DT and this is perfect way to introduce it to them. And it was quite funny to hear that solo on air when 99% of songs that have a solo are just pentatonic runs. Petrucci is a God
If I was God, I would pretend to be Petrucci between 8-11 PM on every show night. I don't care if Paris is burning, I'm JP for 3 hours.
Ugh thats so true. Some many rock songs on the radio have only pentatonic solo's =_=
As much as I hate to admit this, I like what the Edge does with solos. As a guitar player, I'm pretty sure I should saw my hands off now for saying that.
+storeeteller1 not in Louisville
What?! Lucky. The radio stations near me never play anything like this.
DT is indeed a huge band, they are Gods.
Only a huge band has the power to divide their own fans, I see people saying "I hate this" and other people saying "I love this"..
The Gods don't care to please you, they care to make great songs.
Thank you, Mike!
I'm going to miss this collaboration.
It's my absolute favorite!
Looking forward to whatever is next.
Love this album, love this song !
Who listening in 2020? Magnific!!!!
Rafaell Almeida I’m ten years old as of writing this, I’ve never liked really any form of metal, except that album by Black Sabbath “paranoid” I’ve always been into classical rock, prog rock, grunge, alternative rock, and mind twisting phycadelic crap, and mind twisting non phycadelic crap. But dream theater are excellent
me..september 2020
me 2020
In 2020 we need to bild a new world.
2021
el peor album para muchos de la banda es mejor que cualquier gran album de otra banda....sin ....ninguna duda una deliciosa balada ,esta vez con un tinte positivo melodico y muy pegajoso sin abandonar condimentaciones progresivas de la mejor banda de metal progresivo..............por algo son quienes son
What wonderful musicians, writters and singer these guys are ! Would Love to hear them in concert !
This song is even better in the context of the Astonishing Story.
I gotta say James's voice is nice here
Wither - Before
Our New World - After
Silent Man - Now
