Porcupine Tree - Normal

[THNDRZOID]

Actually the acoustic part starting at 2:38 is played on an acoustic live version of the song.

@vrap7 Oh, now it makes more sense :> thnx alot.

[mjzl]

Are there two versions of this song?. Cause when they do it live it's a total different song. Please reply :]

[vrap7]

@mjzl The song appeared on their EP, Nil Recurring. It is 7 minutes long, with heavier parts in the beginning, middle and end. This version is the radio edit, cut down to just the softer parts.

I haven't noticed anyone else say this. How come the chorus from Sentimental is in this?

[DarkerMary]

@SkepticalChimp the same way it happens on 'The Root of All Evil' and 'The Shattered Fortress' by Dream Theater.

Sometimes you make a song to complement another, to give the history some continuity.

@SkepticalChimp

They originally created "Normal" for the FOABP album, but Steven thought it didn't really fit the album, so they made "Sentimental" and used the same chorus.

And wow, I can't get over how cute that teen girl is.

man this is so awesome, the song is amazing but the video adds just a whole other world. The meaning is just SO perfect and true.

[Rammstein99]

its a bit strange that they've cut out the prog part.... a pity in my opinion

[toolfan92]

this song is very very good....but i dont like this over the 7 minute long album version. that one pwns.

[mukmewx]

[cobainx15]
