Hello, I've just found this song in recommend while listening to Metallica. This is my first song of Dream Theater and first listening to it. I quite liked it, so i think I'm gonna stay here for some time. Maybe I'll join in their fanbase. Greetings from Poland!
HOLLOWOXDT1 I wouldn't call it underrated. It has "in the presence of enemies" and "dark eternal night". I can argue that it is not Scenes from a Memory but it is an awsome album
kaliakoudis believe me SC in particular gets a lot of slam . i truly think that DT went downhill after BCSL ( personnaly i didn't like that album though it contains TCOT ) . SC is not their best but for me it was a great one and aged pretty well .
HOLLOWOXDT1 DT doesn't have any albums that are truly horrible. The worst album by far is octavarium, but even it has its moments. Honestly i think if they redid their first album with modern recording equipment people would find that it's a pretty good album even. Afterlife, YTSE Jam, Only a Matter of Time, Fortune in Lies, all are great songs with improved production values.
What a masterpiece...DT was very much alive back in 2007. Remember listening to this back when it came out and thinking that all those people who claim that DT is irrelevant after Awake are just fools.
This song is so beatiful. Dream Theater is amazing. I just recently got into them(maybe a week ago or less).I picked up all there albums. I love them ALL. They are not only masters at the instruments they play, but have mastered the art of composing there own brilliant progressive music. This is the most consistent band I've ever seen also. With songs in each album that just blow my mind :) Can't wait for there 2009 album!!!
Nunca habia escuchado bien a Dream Theater, deje la musica corren en mis audifonos en la computadora, de repente... llego, me pongo las audifonos y no se necesito mas de 30 segundos para captar toda mi atencion en esta cancion, instrumentos y ritmica para volver a reproducir como 12 veces esta cancion, que cancion tan cabrona!
I got this album recently and, I'll tell you what, it's hella good. I've never had songs give me such a sense of power before but this chorus makes me feel indestructible! Damn fine track.
In The Presene Of Enemies (Pt 1) I Prelude (Instrumental) II Resurrection ♫ I saw a white light, shining there before me And walking to it, I waited for the end A final vision, promising salvation A resurrection, for a fallen men Do you still wait for your God And the symbol of your faith? I can free you from this hell and misery You should never be ashamed my son I can give you power beyond anything Trust me you will be the chosen one I was forgotten, a body scorned and broken My soul rejected, tainted by his blood Beyond redemption, a sinner not worth saving Forever taken, from the one I loved Do I still wait for my God An the symbol of my faith? I can lead you down the path and back to life All I ask is that you worship me I can help you seek revenge and save yourself Give you life for all eternity Servants of the fallen, fight to pave the way For their savior's calling, of this wricked day Through the veil of madness, one of vicious blade One man rises up, standing in the way (Redemption) Redemption (For Humanity) Redemption for humanity
I know. 6 Degrees is another gem. There was a primitive energy with Portnoy. I am not gonna get into any comparisons and "this one is better than that one", but there is an element missing that will never return.
This is the first time I've actually sat and listened to a Dream Theater piece. Made me think of a mix of Kansas and E.L.P. with maybe a little Uriah Heep thrown in. Pretty good, I'm going to have to check out some more of their stuff.
Tarik Riadi Listen to their new album Distance over time it’s mind blowing.I recommend these tracks: At wits end SN2 Untethered angel Bastrol warrior Pale blue dot Amazing tracks all of them.
I love this part so much. I wish they made a song sounding like this. Jordan's keyboard playing sounds something out SNES in the 90s. Final Fantasy games... so good!
I: Prelude [Instrumental] II: Resurrection [Verse 1] I saw a white light shining there before me And walking to it, I waited for the end A final vision promising salvation A resurrection for a fallen man [Pre-Chorus] Do you still wait for your God And the symbol of your faith?

+Ignacio C If you are talking about the crescendo,that's not that mind blowing. Chad Smith did the same in the beginning of Can't Stop with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and it was 4 years before that song.
Late reply, but its because he's doing notes on the snare, something completely different on the triangle somehow managing to choke it, with Hi Hats And Bass drum all while still keeping time, it's amazing
Although there is no such thing like a bad DT-Album, I have to say, that this is one of their worse. Images&words was good, Train of thought was epic, Awake was great, so was Octavarium, the new ones are OK, but I personally dont like Systematic chaos.
I think it goes in basicly everything :P, the intro/vers riff is 6/4 and 7/4 I think, the very first intro-thingie is 5/8 and 7/8. 9/8 10/8 11/8 12/8... Yeah, basicly everything :P
Ditunggu hasilnya,, terutama drumernya, koq bisa yak influence nya ini.. tapi koq setiaap coveeer koq gak greget kyak maestro??? Aaaaah sok tau gw nih,, kuping gw aja standar.. hahahaha
uou, a problem i've never listen the Liquid T. where i can download this very fast a lot of my friends from Brazil say that this album is their very best!
I have the transcriptions too a lot of the time they'll give you the guitar lines even if Jordan doesn't actually play it . I think its better getting a book that always have a music than having like a random 16 bars of rests

@@FishTalesOutfitting Thanks, I'll take a look at these :-D
Its been a month. How is your new world? ;)
@@lukerides666 In fact I'm mostly in Metallica fanbase now, but I find time for Dream Theater every day :-D. This masterpiece is my fav right now
@@magdachlebicka3895 You should to listen " Scenes from a memory " quickly.
@@davegrohl2b I've already found this one ;) it's great
That Solo Section is the most soulful stuff petrucci ever created . Systematic Chaos is definetly an underated Album .
HOLLOWOXDT1 I wouldn't call it underrated. It has "in the presence of enemies" and "dark eternal night". I can argue that it is not Scenes from a Memory but it is an awsome album

I agree. It's my second favorite album by them. Only being beaten by Octavarium.
Yes, I just pretend forsaken is not on there.
the pinch harmonic in the first solo is why I love petrucci. in one note he can add a lot of variations. a true magician
one of their best intros, in my opinion.
John Myung is a master of bass!
GnR4life and the sky is blue...
What a masterpiece...DT was very much alive back in 2007. Remember listening to this back when it came out and thinking that all those people who claim that DT is irrelevant after Awake are just fools.
This song is basically the one that made me a huge fan of Dream theater!
Love your name ;)
Although I got into DT listening to LATM & I&W these two songs are some of my favourites ever. Incredible!
Agreed, this song and the title track from Octavarium both blew me away. :)
Same here, this is amazing
This was the first song I ever heard my cousin recommended it to me and I was blown away
This song is just pure pure pure masterclass!!!!

distance over time amazing album
One of DT's best songs, and best intros. Pure class

Jon's slow part are always emotional, awesome .
I got this album recently and, I'll tell you what, it's hella good. I've never had songs give me such a sense of power before but this chorus makes me feel indestructible! Damn fine track.
One of DT's more underrated tunes. Great way to intro an album. Has a slight SyX vibe.
In The Presene Of Enemies (Pt 1)
I Prelude (Instrumental)
II Resurrection
♫ I saw a white light, shining there before me
And walking to it, I waited for the end
A final vision, promising salvation
A resurrection, for a fallen men
Do you still wait for your God
And the symbol of your faith?
I can free you from this hell and misery
You should never be ashamed my son
I can give you power beyond anything
Trust me you will be the chosen one
I was forgotten, a body scorned and broken
My soul rejected, tainted by his blood
Beyond redemption, a sinner not worth saving
Forever taken, from the one I loved
Do I still wait for my God
An the symbol of my faith?
I can lead you down the path and back to life
All I ask is that you worship me
I can help you seek revenge and save yourself
Give you life for all eternity
Servants of the fallen, fight to pave the way
For their savior's calling, of this wricked day
Through the veil of madness, one of vicious blade
One man rises up, standing in the way
(Redemption) Redemption
(For Humanity) Redemption for humanity
There are two things we will never see again from DT. An album like Scenes and a song like this. Sad but true.
I know. 6 Degrees is another gem. There was a primitive energy with Portnoy. I am not gonna get into any comparisons and "this one is better than that one", but there is an element missing that will never return.
3:36 = one of the best moments in musical history. I only wish they would have kept that idea, for lack of a better word, going on for a while longer.
Joe Blow i think they have another song with that theme all the song but i just can t remeber what song is, that sounds familiar to me
andre viana probably Never Enough (Octavarium)
Raymors it sounds almost like it but it's not that one, but thanks for the attention :)
andre viana prophets of war maybe?
no, it can t and it isn t but still thanks, maybe i m just messing up
The best intro song.Amazing as ever
i love the transition from 2:00 to 2:10! holy shit great music!
This is the first time I've actually sat and listened to a Dream Theater piece. Made me think of a mix of Kansas and E.L.P. with maybe a little Uriah Heep thrown in. Pretty good, I'm going to have to check out some more of their stuff.
you cannot sleep with enemies nearby!
You can't sleep. There are monsters nearby.
4:23 begins one of the best moments in dream theater's discography
Lyrics of this song (Part I. & II.) appear in the Manhwa "Priest", and it is pretty awesome.
"alright, let's cover this song"
*First 23 seconds already too hard*
you need to be at least a level 67 mage to obtain such a skill
Petrucci says "Slow down"
Dude, the intro up to the end of the slow part, except the crazy fast part is easy. Don't be discouraged, a beginner can learn it.
Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful song by a wonderful band!!!!
2:15 the notes hit there are some of my favourite moments in music EVER. so sweet and beautiful. magnificent. JP never fails to impress
this was 15 years ago, damn i remember ordering this cd when i was deployed.
Ke sini karna behind the scene take vocal cover nya sanca record.... Goksss
3:35 is just epic. The good times when Dream Theater was epic, awesome, mind blowing, etc.!
Tarik Riadi Listen to their new album Distance over time it’s mind blowing.I recommend these tracks:
At wits end
SN2
Untethered angel
Bastrol warrior
Pale blue dot
Amazing tracks all of them.
@@stavrosguitarist2378 meh... Its ok but it pales when compared to this. Portnoys DT was on a whole other level.
I love this part so much. I wish they made a song sounding like this. Jordan's keyboard playing sounds something out SNES in the 90s. Final Fantasy games... so good!
@@necroplastfulno it doesn't stop being a fanboy 🙄
@@BradenMcClure-q6k It does and now Portnoy is back. Finally the likes you fucks will dissapear from the face of the earth.
I love dt seen them at least 5 times!!! DT and YES best tour ever!!!
I: Prelude
[Instrumental]
II: Resurrection
[Verse 1]
I saw a white light shining there before me

Beyond redemption, a sinner not worth saving
Forever taken from the one I loved

[Bridge]
Servants of the fallen fight to pave the way
For their savior's calling on this wicked day
Through a veil of madness, with a vicious blade
One man rises up, standing in their way
1:40-2:00 is so sick! Must be insanely hard to play
Amazing song with the most epic riff JP has ever come up with at 8:10-8:36
2020 anyone?
:v
Yep, i will listen to DT until i die
i'am here. This track is legendary
Forever DT
YSTW1KSUFUF3N DT
I love the lyrics and the drums. They sound wicked but still excellent played.
Epic song, epic album, epic band
Obrigado por existir Dream Theater
4:51 to 5:04. Heavy metallic objets compressing the earth. When you feel the weight of music. Lol
The endurance of the bass player is ridiculous.
Stephen Hill it is indeed, but this song doesn't show this lmao
I just found out they're going to play this song on their next tour, can't wait to go see them
1:42 Zelda a link to the past >>> boss song
That part is a tip of the hat to the rock group Yes.
114 enemies didn't like the song
How is there people disliking this song? It's awesome
+Andrew Stephen One of the great mysteries of the universe.
The vocals.
they are the enemies of course
Most likely evangelicals
In the presence of 52 enemies?
This is the best opening for them when they play live ❤️ its so cool and epic 😏
Totally Rush this is it. Amazing intro.
Portnoy at 4:33 blows my mind
+Ignacio C why?
The crescendo? Is it because of how fitting it is with the music? Or the fill at the end?
+Ignacio C If you are talking about the crescendo,that's not that mind blowing. Chad Smith did the same in the beginning of Can't Stop with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and it was 4 years before that song.
hahaha as a drummer i can say same thing
Late reply, but its because he's doing notes on the snare, something completely different on the triangle somehow managing to choke it, with Hi Hats And Bass drum all while still keeping time, it's amazing
@@mildr7 been listening to this song since release, HOW have i only just noticed!!!? thanks to your comment i do now
Amazing creation !!! the melody really reminds me the soundtrack of sherlock holmes bbc series
The very best of progressive Rock......😎😎😎🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
probably my favourite DT song
2:15....reminds me of walking down a street at night and looking up at that lightpost thats on the album cover. Everytime I hear it. so magical
the very first album i've heard of this band, its in 2012, and still the better from me
4:12 - 5:12 is the best minute of the song imo
Amazing time structure.
Awesome song! Dream Theater IS the best!
2023! 🎉Welcome back Mike! 🎉
2:39 is it just me or it's like sherlock tv series theme song? i'm not saying who copy who, just sound the same in my ears
eargasmed from 4:06 to 4:50.
+Gustavo F I'm playing this solo for my SAC, let's hope the teachers and students won't come all over themselves :)))))
It's SO good. And when that second guitar comes in, and the bass, and drums...oh man
an ORGASMIC piece by dream theater!!
... now to clean my mess up.
Bought this album on release day, when Best Buy still had a pretty deep CD section.
1st time hearing this, ohhh and no way is it the last, matter of fact I added 3 plays in one sitting 😊💙
Damn,that was tight.
Just Awesome
Awake is the best DT album. This is top 5 though.
Although there is no such thing like a bad DT-Album, I have to say, that this is one of their worse. Images&words was good, Train of thought was epic, Awake was great, so was Octavarium, the new ones are OK, but I personally dont like Systematic chaos.
MossadAgent100
You shouldn't listen to Prog Rock if you thought Train of Thought was their worst.
Antonio Archuleta Best I mean.
+7d7e7f7 Awake is my favorite as well :), great Album!
See 2009 - Present for bad albums.
I get the chills everytime by the ending solo!:P
Long live DT
best song off that album..
OK, John, now we knows how you made that headbang riff from "Glasgow Kiss" 0:05 ))
EPIC WIN. GOOSEBUMPS.
4:49 en adelante... QUE HERMOSA MELODIA POR EL AMOR DE MI PERRO!!!!
7:33 pure awesomeness
Best dude, never heard something so cool
5/8
11/9
2198128182/1818181
and a bit of Paprika too
i love this song 😍
Those keyboards scales.
Esse álbum é espetacular 👊
My favourite intro
Yeah man i agree
I love trying to play this song on guitar hero.
Music speaks volumes to millions, words speak to those only who understand them...
I think it goes in basicly everything :P, the intro/vers riff is 6/4 and 7/4 I think, the very first intro-thingie is 5/8 and 7/8. 9/8 10/8 11/8 12/8... Yeah, basicly everything :P

I just rediscovered this song (and part 2) and this might be a controversial take but, Dream Theater are a pretty good band.
2:10 Sherlock Holmes XD
2024???
uou, a problem
i've never listen the Liquid T.
where i can download this very fast
a lot of my friends from Brazil say
that this album is their very best!
MAN! That ending solo of Rudess and Petrucci is awesome:P
the devil's voice!
I love this cd man!
one of the bests
my weed never been so awesome to smoke
'main computer'
'main'
'computer'
>Implying there is such thing as a central computer in a distributed system such as this
I know, huh!! It's pretty great!
If Petrucci were president, then he could time warp us out of Iraq. I'd like to see someone come up with a better policy than that!
man, DT almost never plays in just one timing
0:46 natural science by rush!
simply amazing.
DREAMTHEATER - TOUR WITH IRON MAIDEN AGAIN PLEASE
I like the part from 0:00 to 9:01
the worst part is 9:00 . i fucking hate it
@@h2jkfvhdhnenrjf Why? It's right before you get to replay the song.
@@h2jkfvhdhnenrjf Yes, thankfully there is a 16-and-a-half-minute sequel, as well.
Watching them live, well lets just say. They're A Fucking Machine!
I like that part aswell
Great song, one of my favorites. Mad props for the good sound quality.
First DT-song i've heard and what a awesome one _0_
I'm a huge fan of DT but this music somehow reminds me of the Witcher TV series
Has this been used as an intro to aseries? I belve I have listened to it before.
Listen to this song on Psychedelics . The first 2 minutes is just phenomenal and you WILL get lost in it.
In The Presence of Enemies is DT's 2112.
I have the transcriptions too a lot of the time they'll give you the guitar lines even if Jordan doesn't actually play it . I think its better getting a book that always have a music than having like a random 16 bars of rests
Oh shit! Rush just went metal! :o
