I'll keep posting this😁 Mastodon. For me anything from the Album Blood Mountain, and any Album up till now. Really any album by them😁 3 singers and great musicians.
Specifically, its about Hamlet from his point of view. At the very end, singing under the music is the Hamlet line "Oh that this too, too solid flesh would melt”, and then it ends aburptly, just like Hamlet's life.
The abrupt ending still irks me. I remember downloading the MP3 off of Napster back in the day thinking that I got an incomplete copy or that the download didn't finish :-D
That's the beautiful thing about bands like dream theater. The course of their musical careers they make music that appeals to so many. Like Steven Wilson with Porcupine Tree and now the Steven Wilson band!
If you are going to continue doing full album reviews YOU MUST REACT TO "Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory." One of the best concept albums ever made, and my favorite album of all time!
YES, YES, YES !!!! I was going to say that. Metropolis was the first Dream Theater album I ever listened to. Still my FAVORITE. As far as concept albums it is second only to Dark Side Of The Moon.
Whoa! Now Jamel getting epic with the mega-smash from the early 90s! Almost everyone was kranking this one. I had never heard anything really like it. Can definitely hear the Rush influence.
My uncle who was a promoter for their record company at the time got me in to Dream Theater when this album came out. I haven't stopped listening to Dream Theater since.
That's exactly how it was supposed to end but you're supposed to hear the beginning of the next song. Go for it. You'll love it. The whole album is off the hook. They love Rush!
@@zacharykim295 we must not hang out with the same type of dream theater fans. i only know of 2 people who have images and words in their top 5 dream theater albums. i have it 4th or 5th. 1. black clouds & silver linings 2. metropolis pt 2 3. train of thought 4./5. images and words or systematic chaos
@@adamnicol4271 Ah, i see he's in the trio with Wooten. Very respectful. John Mclaughlin had a nice drummer...Trilok Gurtu. You gotta be good to hang with talent like Victor or John.
Portnoy lives 20mins away from me. My son went to school with his daughter and I saw him at a school function. I did a double take when I saw him because I never expected he lived my area. Pennsylvania btw.
One of the greatest bands to have ever walked the earth. You should try some of Liquid Tension Experiment. It's some of Dream Theater including John Petrucci and they're instrumental. Try Acid Rain Live. So good.
Yes, the song is supposed to end like that. First heard this song on MTV's Headbangers Ball. It was my introduction to Dream Theater, and probably still my favorite.
Now that you've heard this you should watch O'Keefe Music Foundation's version to see a little girl belt out the lyrics while middle-shoolers hammer this out on live instruments like professionals.
I respect your intent of compliment - however, none of the members of Dream Theater from this time period even have a college degree. John Myung and John Petrucci attended Berklee and met drummer Mike Portnoy there. They all dropped out their first year to become a professional band. They've devoted their time to that reality ever since and continue to create awe-inspiring music to this day. So, this is what happens when Professionals get together and create music. This devotion of time is what allows for the proper atmosphere to create progressive music. Fortunately, they got mainstream success, so that creativity can flourish... And we all can enjoy their creations! 🌎✌️🌱🎶
I was about 20 when Images and Words came out and yes ... I was born again the first day hearing it. Still the absolute masterpiece and benchmark for every Prog / Metal / Progressive band for times to come. Late 80s and early 90s were such great times for masterpiece albums ... Operation Mindcrime, RATM, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, the list goes on :)
Have you read their bio? Apparently he blew out his vocal chords, I think it was around the 6 Degrees era, and took ages to get close to his original range and stamina.
This CD is one of the greatest CD’s you can listen to from beginning to end, there is not a bad song on it. Pull Me Under is one of my all time favorite songs, and I have seen them perform it live on a few occasions, and its great. Thanks for giving Dream Theater some props, they are a great band. Keep up the great work!
17...and my guitar cried to all the other guitars that i couldn't do those things to her. Then Awake was released and its strained our relationship worse. She thought I was going to leave her for a 7 string. It all worked out, I still have that great Ibanez 😂
The drummer Mike Portnoy once mentioned they had The Beatles song "I Want You" in mind when they ended Pull Me Under like that. Also, the shorter version you mentioned was probably the radio cut.
I just went into it and it was blocked. You'll have to click Jamel's link to go to Patreon and watch it. He has the videos up as public, so anyone can watch them.
I was never much of a metalhead, but as a drummer in high school when this came out, the double-kick drum work on this tune certainly caught my attention. The guy has some crazy chops.
Yeah baby! Finally some DT :) Also to check out and my most favourite song of them: "The Count of Tuscany" Edit: It's a story about fear and the feelings you get, the end will blow your mind musically and lyrically
As far as the abrupt ending goes this the explanation from Mike Portnoy When asked about the abrupt ending while at a drum clinic in Atlanta in 1999, Mike Portnoy explained "We had all this tension, and it just kept building and building, and we had no idea where to take it, you know? So we decided to just pull the plug on it, like The Beatles did with 'She's So Heavy'." Thanks so much for this reaction Jamel, loved it!
You should continue with the "Twelve step suite" also from Dream Theater, you already reacted to The Glass Prison and This Dying Soul, you're missing The Root of all Evil, Repentance and The Shattered Fortress, in that order jeje
First time I heard this song I was washing dishes at a restaurant while I was in high school. The cook was blasting it in the kitchen. The good ol days, lol.
I'm not the biggest Dream Theater fan (though not for a lack of trying, but I can appreciate them, and I do like AWAKE), but I still remember fondly my first reaction to this song; this, and "6:00"...both worth their weight in musical gold, to me.
Saw them when they had their first album w first lead singer. They opened for Winger and blew them away!! Lol This song was from their 2nd album and was a huge hit for them and started everything for them. Saw them in this tour too
We haven't heard a band this good seems like forever. This song set the radio on fire when it came out. No one would have believed that it would be their only hit song. Such a strange thing that the more virtuosic the band and music, the less likely they will be popular. Prior to the 20th century, the opposite was true.
I'm very glad you didn't pause the song this time. This song is something you get into and let it flood your emotions as it progresses. I probably have at least a hundred Dream Theater songs in my computer music folder. They are very, very talented and versatile musicians.
Been known to entertain the good folk in the parking area at the local shops with this and other DT tunes myself.... I feel it's my civic duty to bring art to the masses....
Yeah, I get Rush vibes in some spots, Iron Maiden vibes in others...this song really has it all. I haven't listened to it since I was in college and now I wonder what the hell I've been doing with my life.
this whole album is FIRE. I listened to this whole album on repeat when my grandpa died so it really reminds me of him. especially the song "wait for sleep". I cant hear that song without thinking about my late grandpa. Next time you check out dream theater, check out the finale of this album called "Learning to Live"... I promise youll love this one. the story behind it is deeply moving.
Hello Jemel. Just watched this video. Due to your appreciation of Pink Floyd, and especially of Rush, I just knew it was only a matter of time before you found Dream Theater. Specifically this album, this song. It's so great you like/appreciate this. That said, if no one has yet suggested to you, I implore you to check out the debut album from Zebra. In particular the epic song "Who's behind the door". Believe me, you will love it. 🤘
I remember when my uncle introduced me to this album and the band. It was like a whole new dimension in music. It blew my mind. I didn't see a react video to "Take the Time" and you should definitely check that song out if you haven't, already.
I second that! Watching Kala Rose at the age of 10 sing, "Loved By The Sun" by Tangerine Dream, Dream Theater - "Pull Me Under" 9 months later, "The Longest Day and Legacy" by Iron Maiden and "46 and 2" by Tool in 2013, "Sober" By Tool 2015, "The Pot" by Tool Version 2 in 2015 and "Crazy Horse" by Black Label Society (v2) / O'Keefe Music Foundation in 2020...not to mention the other kids playing the instruments............
Dream Theater is what happens when five virtuosos decide to form a band. A lot of their songs are very technical, with lots of transitions & odd time signatures, and because of this there are a lot of people who can't get into them. For someone just getting into them, I'd suggest As I Am, or Panic Attack. Pull Me Under was a good one to start on. 🙂
OH MY GOD ITS HAPPENING I WAS MADE FOR THIS MOMENT Dream Theater songs to check out: The entire 12 Step Suite (obviously not all at once in a video, but all of them are great in their own right) In the Presence of Enemies Metropolis Part 1 Home Caught in a Web Change of Seasons Honor Thy Father As I Am Count of Tuscany Octavarium Panic Attack Enjoy!!!

The whole Images & Words, my favorite DT record, not a single bad song on this Masterpiece, Surrounded is my favorite song.
Hey man, you can listen to this whole album... there's no lows on this album.
I'll keep posting this😁
Mastodon. For me anything from the Album Blood Mountain, and any Album up till now. Really any album by them😁
3 singers and great musicians.
If you enjoyed that please give a listen to "mirror" followed by "lie" from dream theater!
Please react to "kids cover dream theater - pull me under" and "kids cover 46 & 2" you won't be disappointed!
The idea behind the sudden ending is that life can end abruptly. "Every breath leaves me one less to my last." Fantastic song from a fantastic band.
Never thought of that...interesting 🤔🤨
Ah yes! Nice!
Truth.
Specifically, its about Hamlet from his point of view. At the very end, singing under the music is the Hamlet line "Oh that this too, too solid flesh would melt”, and then it ends aburptly, just like Hamlet's life.
The abrupt ending still irks me. I remember downloading the MP3 off of Napster back in the day thinking that I got an incomplete copy or that the download didn't finish :-D
When Dream Theater first came out, this was the song that got exposure. So for early fans of DT this is a homecoming of sorts.
The first song to get airplay in Detroit was "Take the Time," but this one was next.
I first heard it on guitar hero world tour and that’s what got me into symphonic metal.
First one I knew yep!
@@aliyahburnette8231 it’s more Progmetal
Yep this song was their first on local radio here also. Badass then, ans now.
This is my favorite Dream Theater record, so many amazing songs on this Masterpiece Surrounded and Pull Me Under are my two favorites.
When this album came out of course I loved it! However, "Awake" is my favorite Dream Theater album. It's all good. Home!!!
One of my favorites as well. And really helps test out a new stereo 😎🤩😈
I think octavarium is my favorite, but you really can't go wrong with them.
Metropolis Pt. 2 is my favorite by far.
That's the beautiful thing about bands like dream theater. The course of their musical careers they make music that appeals to so many. Like Steven Wilson with Porcupine Tree and now the Steven Wilson band!

And to narrow it down a bit, give us a reaction to the song “Home”!!
@@chrislira3574 Great song
This album deserves a review as well!!
But don't forget to listen to the song Metropolis Part I first.
This is a rare song that gets better every time you hear it....
Even years later.
30 years later lmfao
I’d say the same about a ton of tools songs, and As I Am, off Train Of Thought.
Whoa! Now Jamel getting epic with the mega-smash from the early 90s! Almost everyone was kranking this one. I had never heard anything really like it. Can definitely hear the Rush influence.
They purposefully stopped the song like that to mess with DJ's. Those flippin drums at 7:22.
My uncle who was a promoter for their record company at the time got me in to Dream Theater when this album came out. I haven't stopped listening to Dream Theater since.
I am STILL cranking it!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Suicidal tendencies solo!?
Rush and Metallica have a baby (with cousin Queensryche). You're going to love Dream Theater, Jamel.
Perfect description.
Fates Warning?
@@LuisOrtiz-xo5kc Fates Warning is Rush's illegitimate bastard child with King Diamond.
May as well throw Iron Maiden and Yes in there.
Jesus, dude. You just named all my favorite bands in one sentence!
That's exactly how it was supposed to end but you're supposed to hear the beginning of the next song. Go for it. You'll love it. The whole album is off the hook. They love Rush!
This whole album is epic! Please do Take the Time next!
images and words is their most underrated album. it's diverse, but every song is fantastic!
@@hoopsmccann639 I agree, This album, Six Degrees of inner turbulence and Octavarium are the best albums of this band :3
@@hoopsmccann639 underrated?? I'm pretty sure this album is pretty up there along with Metropolis Pt. 2
@@zacharykim295 we must not hang out with the same type of dream theater fans. i only know of 2 people who have images and words in their top 5 dream theater albums. i have it 4th or 5th.
1. black clouds & silver linings
2. metropolis pt 2
3. train of thought
4./5. images and words or systematic chaos
Maybe underrated for the metalheads but if You are at the prog side is the Best album along octavarium and metropolis p2
Mike Portnoy Best. Drummer. Ever.
Eeeeeeeasy there.....
John Bohnam??
Neal Peart??
Buddy Rich??
George Kollias??
Alex Van Halen??
@@BRO77TX
...Carter Beauford
You guys never heard of Dennis chambers
@@adamnicol4271 Ah, i see he's in the trio with Wooten. Very respectful.
John Mclaughlin had a nice drummer...Trilok Gurtu.
You gotta be good to hang with talent like Victor or John.
Phil Rudd? Jk
Dream Theater, super talented band. John Petrucci is a monster. Super heavy Rush influence.
Fates Warning! Another great band alongside Dream theater and Queensryche!
Images and words, and awake are the best two dream theater albums imo every song is great
Mike Portnoy is a freaking beast.. Another great song bro!!! .
Portnoy lives 20mins away from me. My son went to school with his daughter and I saw him at a school function. I did a double take when I saw him because I never expected he lived my area. Pennsylvania btw.
@@jayman58016 that’s so cool!
The whole band is exemplary obviously. John Petrucci is one of the most well-rounded guitarists in metal!
His face when James started to sing 😂
Best part!
I love you, Jamel!! 😍🥰
THANK YOU SO MUCH for not pausing the song!!!! 🥰
I now have 4 words for you: "A Change Of Seasons." You're welcome. 😊🤘🏻
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes and more yes.... And then Octavarium
Woooooo A Change of Seasons. Wow.
Though I still love 6:00 and Lie off of Awake best.
One of the greatest bands to have ever walked the earth. You should try some of Liquid Tension Experiment. It's some of Dream Theater including John Petrucci and they're instrumental. Try Acid Rain Live. So good.
its so awesome and weird and nerdy all at the same time
The song that introduced Dream Theater to the world!
Yes, the song is supposed to end like that.
First heard this song on MTV's Headbangers Ball.
It was my introduction to Dream Theater, and probably still my favorite.
Man, i miss Headbangers Ball.
Strange enough, I first this song as a midi to a Doom custom level. It was so good I had to find the actual song
Now that you've heard this you should watch O'Keefe Music Foundation's version to see a little girl belt out the lyrics while middle-shoolers hammer this out on live instruments like professionals.
Here to say just this exactly. Insanely good for kids.
and i love the coverversion more :)
That is an absolute must do.
th-cam.com/video/6h2h4zIhwuM/w-d-xo.html
Their Tool cover is insane too!
Dream Theatre- what happens when college professors get together💜
I respect your intent of compliment - however, none of the members of Dream Theater from this time period even have a college degree. John Myung and John Petrucci attended Berklee and met drummer Mike Portnoy there. They all dropped out their first year to become a professional band.

Hey bro Finally, please the best of times by Dream Theater
Please lookup and react to the cover version of this song that is from the O'Keefe Music Foundation channel. All kids under 18, and they crush it!
Thanks. Will do so
Have to give this a listen 🙏
Great reaction! My favorite from them is "Space Dye-Vest", the bass in it raises the hair on my neck. Hopefully you'll give it a shot!
GREAT song, hope he listens to this one!
Most underrated dream theater song ever!! I love it!
One of the most greatest songs ever... 🤘🤘
DT's best record period! So many great memories connected with this song! Great reaction as always man :) keep up the good work brother!
I was about 20 when Images and Words came out and yes ... I was born again the first day hearing it. Still the absolute masterpiece and benchmark for every Prog / Metal / Progressive band for times to come. Late 80s and early 90s were such great times for masterpiece albums ... Operation Mindcrime, RATM, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, the list goes on :)
Can you please do bachman Turner overdrive taking care of business please thank you very much
My favorite Dream Theater song!!
Back when LaBrie was bearable to listen to. Wow, it's been a while.
Seen them live on an off night .. the vocals were horrific like a DT cover band I left that show early 🤡🤷🏻♂️
Have you read their bio? Apparently he blew out his vocal chords, I think it was around the 6 Degrees era, and took ages to get close to his original range and stamina.
Mike Portnoy worshiped at the feet of the Professor, and you can hear it.
Now for fun check out the Students of Aaron OKeefe do this song and 46&2 by tool. A girl named Mikayla Rose sings both and all the kids are under 15
This CD is one of the greatest CD’s you can listen to from beginning to end, there is not a bad song on it. Pull Me Under is one of my all time favorite songs, and I have seen them perform it live on a few occasions, and its great. Thanks for giving Dream Theater some props, they are a great band. Keep up the great work!
This is one of my sons most favorite groups
You should definitely check out Octavarium. Dream Theater’s masterpiece
This song is classic! Takes me back to when I was 19. 😁
I was 22...did the same to me....lol
17...and my guitar cried to all the other guitars that i couldn't do those things to her. Then Awake was released and its strained our relationship worse. She thought I was going to leave her for a 7 string. It all worked out, I still have that great Ibanez 😂
i was 7 or 8.. MISS YOU DAD..
The only other song I've ever seen you not stop (and rightfully so) was Hurt by Johnny Cash. Respect.
HOW, HOW has no one suggested "HOLLOW YEARS" DT's other best song????
The drummer Mike Portnoy once mentioned they had The Beatles song "I Want You" in mind when they ended Pull Me Under like that. Also, the shorter version you mentioned was probably the radio cut.
You've done so many,have ya tried "Still Loving You" by Scorpions?🦂😎🤙
He reacted to it. Type it in the search bar.
I just went into it and it was blocked. You'll have to click Jamel's link to go to Patreon and watch it. He has the videos up as public, so anyone can watch them.
Klaus' voice is just amazingly rich & expressive
I was never much of a metalhead, but as a drummer in high school when this came out, the double-kick drum work on this tune certainly caught my attention. The guy has some crazy chops.
Metal is full of double kick work. Check Meshuggah th-cam.com/video/bAJ1WTGNISk/w-d-xo.html
Mike Portnoy has done a lot of great work with a lot of fine musicians.
Masterpiece
Think it’s time you reacted to Marillion Neverland live video
OH !!!! Hell Yes !! Been a fan of them since this release .. 👊🏼
Same here!!
This Band is of its own!! I drove to Chicago to see these guys at the Chicago Theater!!! Very different, very talented!!
Yeah baby! Finally some DT :) Also to check out and my most favourite song of them: "The Count of Tuscany"
Edit: It's a story about fear and the feelings you get, the end will blow your mind musically and lyrically
As far as the abrupt ending goes this the explanation from Mike Portnoy
When asked about the abrupt ending while at a drum clinic in Atlanta in 1999, Mike Portnoy explained "We had all this tension, and it just kept building and building, and we had no idea where to take it, you know? So we decided to just pull the plug on it, like The Beatles did with 'She's So Heavy'."
Thanks so much for this reaction Jamel, loved it!
What a great band. They have so many great songs!! Mike Portnoy is one of the best drummers out there!!
You should continue with the "Twelve step suite" also from Dream Theater, you already reacted to The Glass Prison and This Dying Soul, you're missing The Root of all Evil, Repentance and The Shattered Fortress, in that order jeje
That is the correct ending. It does not transition into another song.
First time I heard this song I was washing dishes at a restaurant while I was in high school. The cook was blasting it in the kitchen. The good ol days, lol.
I'm not the biggest Dream Theater fan (though not for a lack of trying, but I can appreciate them, and I do like AWAKE), but I still remember fondly my first reaction to this song; this, and "6:00"...both worth their weight in musical gold, to me.
Yup. It's supposed to end like that. The song is mostly about death. The end is so abrupt because life can potentially just WHOOP!! and it's over.
Please react to the O’keefe music school kids playing a cover of this song. You’ll be surprised. Thanks again
You really should react to Queensryche's Operation: Mindcrime
The whole album is one long story
Saw them when they had their first album w first lead singer. They opened for Winger and blew them away!! Lol This song was from their 2nd album and was a huge hit for them and started everything for them. Saw them in this tour too
This album and Octavarium are my favorites. I love Dream Theater.

I'm very glad you didn't pause the song this time. This song is something you get into and let it flood your emotions as it progresses.
I probably have at least a hundred Dream Theater songs in my computer music folder. They are very, very talented and versatile musicians.
Their best album. By far.
Great band, I have done a meet and greet with them and I've also met Mike Portnoy several times after shows with his other bands, great musicians.
Used to listen to this song in my car, and I shared it with the drivers nearby. I was such a nice guy.
Been known to entertain the good folk in the parking area at the local shops with this and other DT tunes myself.... I feel it's my civic duty to bring art to the masses....

Watch the O'Keefe Music Foundation cover PULL ME UNDER
I second that! Watching Kala Rose at the age of 10 sing, "Loved By The Sun" by Tangerine Dream, Dream Theater - "Pull Me Under" 9 months later, "The Longest Day and Legacy" by Iron Maiden and "46 and 2" by Tool in 2013, "Sober" By Tool 2015, "The Pot" by Tool Version 2 in 2015 and "Crazy Horse" by Black Label Society (v2) / O'Keefe Music Foundation in 2020...not to mention the other kids playing the instruments............
about once a month I go through and relisten to all the Kala Rose covers
Still listening to "Images and Words" almost 30 years later...
The first song I heard from Dream Theater....I've been hooked ever since!!
This whole album is sweet!
Here's a brilliant parody of this song that I wrote, entitled "Pull My Finger": www.amiright.com/parody/90s/dreamtheater2.shtml
Please react to reggae rock! Slightly stoopid !! Come on man
Dream Theater is what happens when five virtuosos decide to form a band. A lot of their songs are very technical, with lots of transitions & odd time signatures, and because of this there are a lot of people who can't get into them. For someone just getting into them, I'd suggest As I Am, or Panic Attack. Pull Me Under was a good one to start on. 🙂
I still consider this the best DT album and a classic prog metal album.
my new favorite genre of youtube videos is ppl listening to dream theater songs for the first time
Yes, that is how it ends!
Please react to desappear- Dreams Theater. It's an amazing song

I hope you review Queensryche “I don’t believe in Love”
YOU WILL NEVER HEAR THIS KIND OF MUSIC AGAIN.
Rush is Dream Theater's favorite band. They've done some covers of Rush over the years.
cant believe it took this long for this song. One of my fav bands. Can never get enough of this whole album.
Song about death ends suddenly, mid phrase, just like life...
Or can you please do black crows twice as hard
Many people would consider "Breaking all illusions" as one of their best songs. Check it out. Came out in 2011.
Pure musical genius, that song!
