Ayreon - 01011001 - Waking Dreams - Matrix

[ThisIsJohnDaniels]

tbh I think the music goes fantastically with the aesthetics of the film, good job dude.

[Hellrun1]

1.39 - 2.05 is my favorite part.

[1pa2ch]

Well in my opinion the intelligence of this music is far above that of the Matrix Series. I watched the movies, I enjoyed them, but I can't see why anyone would think them to be particularly great. That's my opinion, and you're free to do what you like.

[Televisionaer]

Heehee Neo as the blind Timetraveller Ayreon :D

[boxfullofK]

I have listened to all of Ayreon's albums first without any visualization, but the first visual parallel I made was with the Matrix series. Why all the Matrix haters here I wonder? Meh--ignore them Perpetuum--they obviously lack the depth of consciousness and intellectual ability that you and I have. ;)

[GameSlut]

I am generally of the opinion that anything Jonas Renske does will always be amazing, but I dunno man. I just CAN'T get into Ayreon. It all feels so goofy, I can't take it seriously. This album sounds like it was taken straight out of Krull or something

[americouk82]

@GameSlut It took me some time to get into Ayreon, but once you get hooked... can´t stop listening to it!!!

Have you tried some different albums?

[GameSlut]

@americouk82 Yes, I've listened to a bunch of the albums. I really am not a fan. Too far into the cheese, and the power metal vocals can kill anything for me

[Augenatic]

what an amazing synth solo

[Markb25266]

Wel its nice music

[Voltroke]

<3 Jonas Renkse's voice.

[yanverin]

se agradece el esfueso por el video te gustaria ver la version que hice

[Melfion18]

best song of ayreon in my opinion!

[Sarasnar]

great song, great video

[TheVernom]

You are right

The video is not important...

but I love the musik

[Legionnaire10]

Absolutely brilliant song. Renkse's voice fits this perfectly.

[KwazyTwang]

I don't like the Matrix very much. But this is an awesome song!

[toolreyes]

Jonas Renkse has a great voice!!!!

[wyowin]

O my god! If I'd dream like in this vid that would be a total nightmare.... Awesome music!

[Earthlazarus]

Amazing video.

[Elynios]

Very nice vid!

[Spaxx1001]

Only Arjen could find a way to make a song with Jonas totally cheesy as hell.

[AlexLococo]

cheesy?

like good cheesy of bad cheesy?

[AlexLococo]

or*

not of

[metabog]

It's not cheesy at all, if you're familiar with the story and used to the music it will give you goosebumps just thinking about it.

[AlexLococo]

trinity was quite ugly

[fnglert]

Yeah? Well - I'd do her anyways. \o/

[OcToBeR321]

1st time I hear that song... Huge fan of katatonia I am and woooooowow!. This song is awesome, Jonas did an excellent job on that song, i have no word to describe all I can imagine listening to that song!

[elpagna]

Nice job =)

[MinaeOletSaksasta]

1:39 <3

[FearlessSpinner]

Emotions......i remember.....We are Forever!

[Lovesick4Mina]

[Yaruschka]

yesyes Jonas Renkse!!! :-))

[wafels01]

yesyes Anneke van Giersbergen!!!

[maisgueuh]

putain la bite !

c'est ma préférée ! (pour de vrai !)

[scherzo1928]

This without a doubt is one of the best synth solos ive heard. Beauty and form over speed. Its played with such care for each note, and flows so naturally... i just love it. Same thing with Arjen's solo after it.

Oh and 2 thumbs up for the video. pretty sweet combination with the song.

[mongobongoman]

yessss i love that solo so much!

[noirenvie]

great vid! fits so gooood. thanx

[german01011001]

4:02 hehehehehehehehehehhehehe pretty sarcastic

[synthescient]

Very nice editing!

[raegoul22]

the great tomas Bodin

[nihilanth311]

awesome video. loved the effects on "color your thoughts" huge ayreon fan. hated this album when it came out but it's growing on me daily.

[flixxit]

Same here.

[mickeyman1989]

WOW ! i never would have expected a matrix video to go so well with ayreon ... amazing job !

[flemaster]

anneke!! <3

[analu1138]

wow! this is the best video/song/theme combination i've seen around since Evangelion/Nightwish - 'End of all hope', Evangelion/WT - 'Forsaken' and Evangelium/Rammstein - 'Feur Frei' :D

and the scenes chosen from the matrix are perfect ;) is it just me, or are there some T. McFarlane and Production IG animation scenes?! awesome! :)

the b&w scenes i can't seem to place...

tanx 4 the great video, dude ^__^

[daftgorillaz971018]

yo no se que decir

[ToadiAcceleratio]

Fantastic vocals.

[wizards1rule]

I so gotta watch this when I'm toked...

[setatubo]

great video and great song...

[Airsoft253]

If you think about it....what if the agent used a pistol with 4 times the fps of the .50 cal desert eagle? Harder time dodging those. Excellent song. Great editing. Fits pretty much together with the song. Ayreon=love

[mortiis669]

i can hear jonas!

[disizbilly]

Great Job!!! not big on fan videos 'cause they're usually irrelevant to the song, but given the subject matter this one fits quite well...extra cudos for the "ducking bullets" scene during the solo, superior edit work. Thanks!!!

[rousson44]

don't care about the video, the music is the only important thing,especially with ayreon because this music can be (and maybe must be) listened with closed eyes

[essentialDemon]

I not only second that, i cpoy it, print it out and hang it above my bed!

Wisdom like i havent heared in a long time ;)

I got to know Ayreon by the human equation and well, im sold!

[ayreonautiqus]

If it was possible, I would give you ten tumble-ups for that comment!

[rousson44]

thanx ^^

[Jagdwurststulle]

Love it <3

[caitlinx54]

I love the hallway at 02:46

[killbad999]

i love the chorus :)

[DemonDZ]

Why is 1010011001 (Binary numerals for 1337=leet) in the title? o.O

[theavelfairy]

it's the name of the album

[farkasssss1]

1010011001

The binary code of Y character.

[Elektrycz]

Not in ASCII, and it's ain't 1337 dec but 665.

[RalonzoP]

Note quite as awesome as the Opeth-Funeral Portrait-300, but pretty damn good.

[apelsinbzz]

good

[setatubo]

video doblemente friki: por matrix y por ayreon; ¡y me encanta!

[setatubo]

video doblemente friki: por matrix y por ayreon; ¡y me encanta!

[0madworks0]

this video sucks

[Yaruschka]

Excellent album,.....Jonas's performance as well....

[alientool]

Jonas Renske Rules!

[MaurDL]

Not bad. Always refreshing to a see a video with some actual thought and effort put into it and not just a bunch of random scenes spliced together. Especially rare to find any meaningful handcrafted videos on youtube

[HELENAEVELINE]

The song is so good, I'm listening to it for weeks and it doesn't bore me for a sec.The use of synths and keyboards in Arjen's songs is always mindblowing.The choice of voices.. o well, there's no one like Arjen Lucassen in my opinion, it's a thing from the heart. The vid is ok.

[oomwillem10]

damm... i gave you a poor comment...

but indeed im listenning it too very long... and indeed it doesn't bores you

[songstructuren]

chroma key?... anyway, i keep on listening to this song again and again

[songstructuren]

cool ending by the way

[fnglert]

This is a good vid.

[tvergara91]

the keyboard solo is amazing.. theres no ways to describe this song. That synth thats throgh all the song its really nice, wish i had that kind of synths.

[fnglert]

they synth solo is amazing, I agree. Arjen's guitar solo right after it is also pretty awesome.

[lukemaster123456]

0,30 looks like a alien of crysis!^^great song

[fnglert]

Arjen's solo in this song is incredible.

[YangPile]

good video mix with the music. Meaning from the footage fits well with the words and the color effects add some nice visual juice. All together a 5*

[Kouban]

You have extremely poor taste in combining music and movies. Not to mention, you couldn't even wait until the album was actually out.

[Perpetuum]

*yawn* that is the your poor opinion, and frankly, i don't give a flying fist fuck. true, this is the internet. leaking albums and fans who can't wait. get used to it.

[Kouban]

There's no need to be condescending about it.

[Perpetuum]

indeed. i was just actually yawning, you know, as this day annoys and bores me to death. welcome to the internet, though, man.

[AsASymbol]

@Kouban Ha. No need to be condescending? Remember your initial comment? You sounded like an asshole. You got treated like one.

[wyowin]

@Kouban

I actually happen to think this combination couldn't have been done better. :D

[merc0]

So awesome. 5 stars.

[maria20v]

Coool video and music I LOVE IT

[iosueo]

It's not the best in my opinion... but very interestig things can be heard in that album!!

[Perpetuum]

the most widely regarded as best would probably be The Human Equation, for some reason i don't understand. i think i still like Into the Electric Castle most.

[freedomcaller]

the electric castle is definatly better then the human equation, but for me nothing beats the universal migrator.

[gott777]

yeah, universal migrator was one of the best CDs from him. But my favourite song still is Valleys of the queen :-)

But this new CD isn't worse at all, I'm thinking about maybe buying it

[AsASymbol]

@Perpetuum I think it's probably because Human Equation could be listened to people who aren't exactly fans of the genre. Electric Castle is more eccentric and not as produced.

[Darkenedzombie]

Arjen's best work in my opinoin....

[dendemen72]

This is an great album of Ayreon

[kt4shakaw]

Anneke!!!! :O

[HELENAEVELINE]

Opnieuw een geweldig nummer door Arjen. Ook dit nummer kruipt weer onder mijn huid. Ik blijf betoverd door zijn muziek

[Censeo]

oh, I'm buying this album definately.

[Arcanastenebrae]

me too :)

[adg211288]

I need more of this album!

P.S. cool use of the matrix in the video. :D
