Dream Theater - Erotomania

[The80dario]

exelente no tiene comparacion

[LorisITADrums]

4:42: Beethoven - Symphony No.5??

[salvaska]

Punt i Final ;)

[viktor4036]

поздрав од Македонија!!!Greetings for Macedonia!! Dream Theater <3

[CommElite]

My personal favorite song from Awake

[GuitarAndWow]

''Awake'' - the perfect album

[jamesedwardtheobald]

i get a perverse joy out of reading the ego-laden flame-fests on many guitar-oriented videos, perhaps because i see the puniness of the human ego laid bare? regardless, diggin' the piece. crunchy squishy guitar, wicked drumming and some real organ sounds ( or a real sounding keyboard organ) , classy ending too

[jamesedwardtheobald]

bitchin! never heard this before, found some vid of a GIT cat practicing it, way cool!

[dtsharky]

One of the epic riffs from DT!!

[kamurandeliormnli]

We are missing too much this Dream Theater,this is the real DT...

[CuriousComposer]

If anyone is wondering what the word "erotomania" actually means (no, they did not make it up!), it means insatiable lust; and more specifically, thinking that someone in a higher social class than you is in love you with you. Interesting, no?

[zekk0ut]

@CuriousComposer

I guess they just come up with something random with instrumental names.

[IantoddusSardus]

lyrics by myung

[jmp0035]

I don't know why Myung gets picked on; he's an awesome bass player who also happens to be really quiet. His part in the fake "Why Kevin Moore Left Dream Theater" interview on YouTube is hilarious, though!

[SteveMasterify]

masterpiece

[iddjex]

日本にはない音楽だよ！

聞いたときには衝撃を受けました。

ポートノイは脱退してしまったけど、これからもすばらしい曲を世­の中に輩出していってください！！

[NiceGirlSwag]

@iddjex Yeah! All things make sense now XD

[remcoQGG]

@iddjex  I'm sorry sir, Fanta is out of order.. would you like some Ice Tea instead?

[meryuin]

I love how some songs has a connection with each another like Erotomania and The Silent man. The Mirror and Space Dye-Vest

[TheHornet79]

Sometimes I forget Myung is part of the band...

[harry11111ful]

eroticmania is what i thought it was called

[sourcegamer101]

I can't help but think that the part in A Change of Seasons (11:30) sounds like the intro to this song.

[angelhof17]

@sourcegamer101 its on purpose ;)

[0220mikey]

how's about we all just shut the hell up and enjoy the fucking music!

[FrankieTVGuitar]

DO I HEAR COWBELL!? :D

[digitalfreak123]

if i see "lyrics by myung" on another instrumental...

[miashred]

@digitalfreak123

aaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaha!!!

[awfpunisher]

This sounds like a Cacophony song.

[ltayl1]

[uncinghiale]

[PaoloBaixista]

[bananaslumberparty]

5:29 FUCKIN HEADBENGING

[mrgeleo]

[The0ctavarium]

[alan780]

[grgtompen]

4:30 onwards

what is this solo my goodness...

Bach, Beethoven and Mozart at the same time in one

:-o

[ShMac18]

@grgtompen my fav petrucci solo of all time.. i unno its just so beastly

[fraroc]

This is another song where you can hear a bit of their Kansas influence. Somewhere you can hear a bit of Icarus (Borne on wings of Steel)

[sonnief]

3:05 is the loveliest part... silent man in electric ! :D

[IantoddusSardus]

@MyMytalMajesty Music lol

Listen to some Rush's album of '70/early '80

[IantoddusSardus]

Rush did this 15 years before

[SlugMenace]

@IantoddusSardus Good for Rush I guess.

[IantoddusSardus]

@SlugMenace In fact Rush>97% band of past, present and future

[SlugMenace]

@IantoddusSardus You mean in opinion Rush>97% band of past, present and you can't predict the future so just leave that part out.

[IantoddusSardus]

@SlugMenace I PREDICT future

[MrXorHomer]

Cany anyone tell me the name of the classical peice that John plays a bit of at 4:32 ? thanks.

[CrypticC62]

@MrXorHomer It's part of a piece called "Erotomania" by Dream Theater.

[kjsoccerronaldo10]

im gay

[msbeastiful]

@kjsoccerronaldo10 Cool story bro

[designioonirico]

Absolute amazing! It sounds like a story of a time travel or something like that

[StormbringerRuler]

5:00 - 5:10 turns me on. Badly

[sqweekyknee]

my god awake brings back so many child hood mem's haha

[HetfieldIsGod92]

3:24 - 3:41 Silent Man part is AMAZING

[Rockamateurman]

Better than a Porn xD

[lsmartin96]

oh i know why 3:23 sounds like silent man because its mind besides itself

[lsmartin96]

so james labrie doesnt sing this song because its instrumental

[marihuano69]

i love dream theater but i'm starting to hate dream theater fans

[spraynpray]

@marihuano69 Why ya say that?

[enetickk]

@marihuano69 Why?

[TheRealCadaver]

@marihuano69 I know the feeling dude. Their music is absolutely amazing, but their fans can be some real cork-sniffing, snub-nosed d-bags sometimes.

[DynaDash]

Just takes the first seconds of the song to make me shiver.

[WateverBr]

I always say that: Drem Theater doesn't make song, they make artworks.

[DJSFV12]

Best part is 2:39!

[hntrock1]

Awesome!

[jhonxiolon]

Wow! con un bajo suena genial TT oTT b

[bulpoppro]

Now THAT'S music quality!

[chris2005r1]

Dude you like all stuff I listen to..cool

[lsmartin96]

3:44 sounds like silent man

[Jugs95]

This sucks

[manolo956]

@Jugs95 then why are you watching it.

[57aurelien]

lyrics by john myung

[teejay929]

@57aurelien written AND performed

[dbadgones]

@57aurelien hahahahaha

[Schwartzdying]

2:39 AWESOME PART :D

[madgeir123]

3:24 is the best with this song!

[lsmartin96]

and 1:14 is my favorite part with this song

[wakabayahithebest]

recuerdo que esta fue una de las primeras bandas de metal que escuche, en ese entonces tendría 5 años mas o menos, que nostalgia volver a escuchar esta cancion.

[aytherix]

22 people need to be shown how to turn their sound on.

[aytherix]

WMG are idiots to try and take down music videos. We in the youtube community are pretty much giving their artists free advertising.

[vremetal]

Fuck this gay shit... listen to Scissorfight.

[pandwra92]

@vremetal go fuck yourself

[phoenix7289]

The audio quality on this..... seems to be lacking.

[dreamtheater142]

@phoenix7289 go buy the album then

[phoenix7289]

@dreamtheater142 I own all their albums, a crazy thing eh? Since most people just download the music nowadays. :P

[Schwartzdying]

@dreamtheater142 I think that the audio is very nice! Because i'm a DT's lover ^^

Thanks again dude

[reneciux]

@dreamtheater142 i agree! most of us who complain about the video-audio quality should do us a favor, buy the CD or mp3 (legal download) and get the audio or video the way it's suposed to be.

[roadkill1001]

@dreamtheater142 KAPOW.slamdunk.

[marihuano69]

@dreamtheater142 or download it ;)

[nokroblosho]

@dreamtheater142 he has a point why would you waste your time posting it to youtube if it's got shit sound quality?

[dreamtheater142]

@nokroblosho because the rather large views this video has makes me feel like a normal man. Compensation is an understatement.

Any other questions?

[knoxianpanda]

@dreamtheater142 Yes I have one. Why post videos to feel like a normal man where a normal man wouldn't sit on a computer wasting their time posting this?

[dreamtheater142]

@knoxianpanda because you decided to randomly pick a fight with me, compensation i would assume

[knoxianpanda]

@dreamtheater142 I'm not fighting at all :) for 'fighting' on the internet is pointless. I was just stating my opinion.

[nokroblosho]

@dreamtheater142 It's not a fight. I respect your humour but still what would you gain from posting this in the first place? (answer correctly this time) 

[c9castine]

@nokroblosho listen to you, demanding a correct answer. he gains nothing, just trying to let people like you come listen to a cool song when they dont feel like rummaging around for a cd

[CommElite]

@c9castine good one. I like how they're treating dreamtheater142 like the bad guy here cause his uploaded song isn't top-of-the-line quality and feel the need to attack him for that. These guys should just upload their own version if the quality bothers them that much.

[dbadgones]

@dreamtheater142 fuck those dudes, thnxs 4 the post brother!!

[MrTacO3ite]

@dreamtheater142 dont fight!!!!!!!!!! just... think on pennies :D

[JulioMcWonderous]

@knoxianpanda you all got pwned so bad. 3 in a row.

[knoxianpanda]

@JulioMcWonderous I like rape.

[JL199598]

@phoenix7289 he's rigth i have the album and it's different

[nokroblosho]

@phoenix7289 second this 

[ReyCarmesi97]

@phoenix7289 its something . not the best quality, but something

[extant11]

@phoenix7289 a) get some decent monitor speakers.

b) 1994 production quality may not be what you're used to.

[phoenix7289]

@extant11 I have very decent speakers, it's more like B. And my God, the guy who uploaded this and commented telling me to buy the album got all those likes... I'm going to have to buy it a second time because Space Dye Vest got fucked up. =/

[amgere2195]

@phoenix7289 Oh please, the audio is good here, you can also download the album if you don't want to buy it :)

[Melis8163]

2:39-3:05 incredible drum line!!!!

[MattyBassK]

I start to feel sick when I try to learn this song, it's so hard!

[Melis8163]

4:43-4:52 thats reminds me to vivaldi this part are 100% petrucci or is from the classical music?

[h2save1]

Fuuuck 21 dislike



[skaaddict2]

So much win in this composition. Beautiful.

[amithabajan2]

@MegaMrDT a mind beside itself was the name given to the suite which contains this song, voices and the silent man, but it was on awake.

[djkikko]

Only one word... AMAZING!

[JimiGilmoure]

@MegaMrDT actually he is right this is the first part of a mind beside itself with "Voices" and "The Silent Man" being the second and third parts respectively.

[TaoMetaller97]

This song sucks from the first second...

of course is a joke xD Dream Theater aren't my genre favourite (thrash metal) but this song is totally amazing. Progressive Metal is amzaing, and Dream Theater too \m/

[Vitaum010]

Wow, this sounds a lot like Metal Fatigue by Allan Holdsworth!!!

[MegaMrDT]

@iiztehgame no, it's erotomania. I'm pretty sure a mind beside itself was on falling into infinity

[onsenfoudunomful]

This is one of their best songs

[ihateusernamemaking]

lyrics by John Myung

[djkikko]

@ihateusernamemaking ahahahha this is good!

[MrFunkyWise]

@ihateusernamemaking We all know it's better like this hahaha

[jambub]

@ihateusernamemaking haha thts amazing

[EpicMetalTime]

@ihateusernamemaking i lol'd irl

[SlugMenace]

@ihateusernamemaking Overused.

[ihateusernamemaking]

@SlugMenace yeah i guess it kinda is. but if it brings smiles to faces, who cares? haha god bless

[c9castine]

@ihateusernamemaking this made me laugh out loud. thumbs up.

[ihateusernamemaking]

@c9castine haha thanx man

[Colbystrns]

awesome instrumental song, im listening to it on my ipod right now :)

[Yaroz007]

pura poesia in musica

[SirXander]

@TheBigjon1213 Rolling Stone Magazine is pure shit man. They don't know fuck about music. All they care for is tendency. When I read the idiotic stuff they write I can't avoid reminding myself what Zappa used to say about them : "Fuck yourself with a copy of Rolling Stone/Or are they too holy for your holiest of holes/Now those people think they're holier than Moses/But aren't they just a bunch of fuckin' posers"

[TheBigjon1213]

@SirXander I agree. They like to play it safe too and just list the icons because most people who read it don't know much about music either and when they see names like Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix, they aren't able to disagree because they don't know enough. Totally agree with Zappa. Metal Hammer isn't that much better, I used to think it was a legit magazine until I seen one of their Top 100 were Pearl Jam's debut album to be better than Megadeth's Rust in Piece, couldn't believe my eyes

[Doomed2Hell]

@TheBigjon1213 Why did they even mention Pearl Jam in a metal magazine? That's just strange.

[BKets4ever]

@TheBigjon1213 Actually, it was the Metal Hammer Magazine that characterised it as a "musical masturbation"

[TheBigjon1213]

Damn, your right, Rolling Stone does suck, but your right it was Metal Hammer that had that review. I still feel the same about RS though.

[resdsox1]

@TheBigjon1213 What dose rolling stones got to do with this?

[XanaduMyHome]

@TheBigjon1213 Dude how can they say that, This album was actually brilliant in musical composition in my opinion, what a bunch of idiots

[GrexxSkull]

@TheBigjon1213 rolling stones can go fuck themselves.

[MrDanteaguilar]

@TheBigjon1213 What can you expect from some commercial mind controlling piece of shit magazine? They probably say Lil Wayne is more talented.

[cocolukia21]

@TheBigjon1213 Well maybe they're not entirely wrong. i masturbate to this :P

[kvarbanov]

@TheBigjon1213 They must be on some really bad crack, or simply like to listen to Limp Bizkit ... I can't imagine how someone that pretends to be music journo don't understand DT ... but I guess that's why Rolling Stone are in my NO list.

[DynaDash]

@TheBigjon1213 Ah, typical Rolling Stone, they have always been that ignorant.

[braziliandesigner]

@TheBigjon1213 Rolling Stone is a Justin Bieber's magazine!

[onsenfoudunomful]

20 people aren't awake

[kilipeti]

quite easy stuff and great for practising timing and stuff in general.

Also AWESOME song with AWESOME solos! I can't say anything else it's just Dream Theater :)

[SpaceDyeDream]

We need another instrumental of medium duration, just like this and Dance of Eternity.

[iTortalini]

Monsterous guitar solos. <3

[tekken3y0sh1m1tsu1]

An Endless Sporadic, did a cover of this song. XD

[MEGADETH6630]

Theres no such as a bad dream theatre album nor song. Because all there stuff kicks arse

[TheMasterSword16]

Images and Words and 6DoIT are considered to be their best albums and I think they're both fantastic, but I also think Octavarium, Systematic Chaos, and Train of Thought are underrated. Awake is also good, and I'm still listening through Black Clouds and Silver Linings and Metropolis II. Couldn't really get into WD&DU and haven't listened to Falling Into Infinity yet, though.

[job4cowboy94]

It was good, but my akk time favorite part out of that song was 0:00 - 6:44

[MaximumPayne12]

imo the best instrumental song ever :D

[drummaboy2346]

@FrancuxoGuitar Touche' :D

[orangestoneface]

isnt this called rockjass

[drummaboy2346]

@orangestoneface No, it's called Progressive rock.

[job4cowboy94]

@drummaboy2346 Progressive Metal dumbshit

[fastone32]

Erotomania” by Dream Theater, which is from the album “Awake,” is a great example of the complexity possible in progressive metal instrumentals. One of the highlights is an incredible guitar solo by John Petrucci.

[MrNickdrummer]

I play this one!

[Sirist10]

4:43 :OOOOOO clasica

[maximcaron]

I have been sitting in front of my computer, trying to find something worthy enough to type as a comment to express my feelings about this song, and album. I just can't find what to say, but I am sure that many people can understand how I feel right now. This feeling has no other equal.

[metalheadblues]

has a really neo classical speed metal symphony feel to it

Petrucci is epic and not hearing James vocals is a +++ lol

hope they find a replacement for Portnoy and get back in the studio

[wacko1358]

@metalheadblues i agree 100% but they will never replace portnoy
