  • Im probably gonna get a lot of hatemail, but I think this is DT¨s album !!

  • 0:49 Glass Prison.

  • it's sad to see that when people comment about the instruments, they never comment about the bass. so now im gonna do it! prepare yourself!!

    i like the bass

    END!

  • @WpA09 Brainly explanation... could you explain it?

  • 0:56 completely orgasimd on the floor

  • @EternallyFalse Couldn't agree more. :P

  • 1:33 makes me think of And justice for all

  • that ending jam is what metal should be. not blast beats and stupid screaming

  • 100 vs. 1...you are dying soul xD

  • haha theres 100 times as many likes as dislikes!!!!

  • 1:50 blackened?

  • Is it me or the breakdown of this song around 1:00 is the same that the one in The glass prison around 5:30 ?

  • @benoitdrums1996 Yeah I think it's exactly the same.

  • 1 dislike to many.....

  • I appreciate your videos. Can't you just disable the comment section to avoid useless and baseless discussions? For some time there was an arrow button to hide these stuff now you have put your hand over the screen to enjoy the music.

  • so many parts of this song are used in their other songs it is ridiculous XD i definiatley heard a part from the glass prison, the root of all evil and a few others i think =P

  • @iopegivvyi dude, it's supposed to be that way... This song is part of the 12 (was it 12?) step suite, which basically is the story about portnoy getting rid of his alcohol addiction. So, yes, you are right, parts of the song were taken from other songs and also occur on later songs, but this is done on purpose!

  • @iopegivvyi sure dude, Root and glass prison ARE part of the AA suite. There's even a wiki page for that, go see "twelve-step suite". The other parts are repentance and Shattered fortress. No offense, but I'd wish the original posters of these songs to write something in the descriptions, I'm kind of embarassed when people actually think they were short on inspiration ;)

  • Try to play the part at 4:47. Your hands will burn!

  • damn the part at 5:45 is terrible!

  • Petrucci definitely had to practice 63 hours a day for this one

  • thanks for posting this. i've only recently got into dream theater and i've been trying to decide which albums to add to my collection. i'm thinking this album and scenes from a memory would be good additions.

  • Their music is not to be f**ked with, keep up the amazing songs!!!!!!!

  • singing around 1:40 reminds me of Blackened by Metallica.

  • @Nihongoking123 There's also a riff taken from Blackened by Metallica.

  • Comment removed

  • worst part :  5:45

  • Comment removed

  • i love dream theater

  • 4:48... It's not the fault to petrucci, he is born with this talent he wants to proves the other persons that nobody will never play that kind of thing... In resumé, he is god and we are his slaves

  • @t3hlulz I wouldn't say a complete ripoff, but definitely is close.

  • 4:48 is pure genius if you ask me

  • Gosh, i cant get enough of 1:04, SICK PART!

  • 1:32 made me want to stop listening. the fact that i'm a dt fan doesn't change the fact that it's a complete rip-off of the verses from blackened. 

  • @t3hlulz OMG i listened and yeah!

  • @t3hlulz Not really,a rip-off, more of a tribute. Metallica was a heavy influence for this album. (Pardon the horrible horrible unintentional pun there =P)

  • @GasparXR i notice that dt fans prefer to say that dt 'wears its influences on its sleeve' or, in your case, that they are just paying 'tribute', whenever they commit outright plagiarism. listen to 'blackened', and then listen to 1:32. it is the same vocal transplanted on top of a new (and equally uninteresting) guitar part.

    in fact, in my opinion that whole section is worthless anyway; if dt HAD to pilfer musical ideas, they could have picked something better than this non-melody.

  • @t3hlulz your just a faggot i bet the only reason you hating on dt is because some one said there better then an other band do your talking shit cause your ass got mad you are just a piece of trash fag boy

  • @t3hlulz your just a faggot i bet the only reason you hating on dt is because some one said there better then an other band so your talking shit cause your ass got mad you are just a piece of trash fag boy

  • @t3hlulz an dumb ass deffrent verses so there not copying blackend its just dumb asses like you that wanna make metallica fans mad so they can hate on this band 2 but truly your probly just some twinkie eating fatass that so much of a pussy that he lets his rage out on the internet your pathetic your tarsh just gtfo b4 some 1 rages an beats your ass faggot

  • @a7xsuks657438374 I'm flattered my comment meant so much to you that you felt the need to reply four times. I've certainly learned my lesson; I'll think twice before I dare to give my opinion on YouTube again - lest I anger you. (I do, however, recommend you take more care to spell properly when you type; one occasionally had to make a great effort to understand you.)

  • @t3hlulz awwww it funny how you act so sacastic like a fucking douche bag oh an 1 tip to you this is the internet not a fucking spelling bee so just go back hoping on you dads dick im sure he will enjoy it like the last time you did

  • @a7xsuks657438374 Congratulations on being able to spot sarcasm. You don't give off the impression of being able to do anything taxing on the brain. Learning to spell would help. You're clearly not much older than 12, and desperate for company. (Maybe riding your 'dad's dick' started to lose its thrill.) But the verse to this song still sucks. Go cry some more.

  • @t3hlulz stfu blackend sucks anyways so eat a dick an stop hoping on metallica dick

  • We should exchange the 1 guy who disliked this for a token that will get Mike Portnoy back in DT.

  • @GallowayJesse I used to think the same thing, but then when I watched a live video of them playing that section, I came to appreciate it more.

  • 3:54 that keyboard solo kills it everytime followed by a sick guitar solo

  • DT are awesome

  • Every time I watch a video from dream theater from the creator, I always see him getting angry at others for giving their opinions..

  • @TheCagedTiger I don't get angry at people for exposing their opinions, I get angry at people who are stupid. If a person wants to expose their opinion to thousands of people who disagree with them, including me, I expect them to at least build a solid chain of arguments to support their point. Instead, what I get all the time is "LOL DT SUCKS" or maybe "YOU SUPPORT PIRACY BLABLABLA I'M NOT HEARING WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY FUCK IT". So yeah, I think it's ok to get angry at these people.

  • @TheCagedTiger umm no its not him every 1 is gonna get mad if you talk shit an plus you act like xXSTFDXx asked 4 there opinions they should just keep there fucking mouth shut

  • justin bieber view this video xD

  • 3:55 Petrucci's rhythm tone is so killer.

  • the beauty of john's solos are that he's melodic (at times), tasteful and has some killer vibrato to boot.

  • 0:00

    Rudess' magic!!!!

  • @wenaldy And Portnoy´s break it all down to bits... Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1:28-2:00 OMG

  • anyone notice that there playing blackened by metallica at 1:30

  • @adamw98

    I thought the same thing first time I heard it! Well they are Metallica fans so the influence is there....

  • I'm a huge DT fan as well as a Metallica fan. I don't know if anybody notices, but parts (short parts) of this tune sound a little like "Blackened" by Metallica. I'm not implying that DT stole that little riff from Metallica, but I couldn't help noticing the brief moment of similarities. Most of the song does NOT resemble "Blackened" though.

  • @WntrSolstice2012 (I notice it especially from about 1:34 - 1:44.)

  • at the breakdown i get orgasmic shivers (0:47)

  • @GallowayJesse Well, what you must understand about DT is that they play mainly for themselves. So as long as they like what they're playing, they don't really care if you like it or not, which, I think, is beautiful.

  • @xXSTFDXx Yep, and it's ''always'' beautiful anyways, and I actually really love that part

  • @xXSTFDXx yeah that's what every musician should do, if he takes himself and the thinks he do serious otherwise i think he does not deserve this title.

  • @xXSTFDXx thats bullshi*t.

    u think if they'll do a show and no one will come, they won't care?

    they'll just do the show alone, and not mind?

    (not that that would ever happen)

  • @GallowayJesse and you sir are an idiot

  • @Heli0doros

    Hush fool. People with brains are trying to use the internet. Run off now.

  • @GallowayJesse you sir(or ma'am) are a dumbass, that part is what most DT fans love! you know how hard it is to synchronize guitar and keyboard like that, let alone do it in a live setting without missing a beat? no its not to show off, its all carefully thought of, and its what the fans love, they go crazy when they play that part in the song, its like saying, I like this song, except for the part that all the fans go crazy on, it doesnt make sense, and if you have the skills to do that, y not?

  • @FlyingPandaRockets

    That part is useless to the song and the only reason fans go crazy over that part is because 99% of DT fans are impressed by fingers moving really fast, even when it's the same pattern played over and over just moved up and down to different keys, like the part in this song. I liked stuff like that too until I got out of 8th grade and if I wanted to listen to picking exercises I'd get JP's DVD.

    A lot of DT's keys/guitar unision leads are great- this one is mindless wank.

  • @GallowayJesse if its mindless wank then you get up there and play it big shot, no really, i wanna see a video on your page with you playing it, your making it sound like that part is easy to play without messing up, and like anyone could do it. and of course 99 percent of DT fans love fast finger movements on the guitar, but they also like the complexity anmd technicality of JP and his solos, and at least his solos are done well and with meaning, its not like a MAB solo with mindless shit

  • @FlyingPandaRockets

    I can't play that but that's not the point. Difficult =/= good. I'm not saying that's easy to play, I'm saying that they could have done something more creative than play the same patterns moved up and down the scale in straight 16th notes the whole time at 234 BPM. And yeah, most of JP's solos are great and have meaning but this is not one of them.

    But yeah, it's still a masterpiece next to MAB.

  • @GallowayJesse haha im just glad we both agree on the MAB part, but still, in a band where theyve done soooo many other solos perferring creativity over technicality, maybe it was a good decision to have this part in, the fans love it, and Mike portnoy said this was a balls to the wall metal album, and in the world of metal, theres many patterns like that, so all in all i think those are 3 good reasons why they have it in there, fans love it, its metal, and theyve done creative over technical b4

  • @FlyingPandaRockets im a thrash metal fan, petrucci is really a guitar legend, but he uses a lot of scales (for songs that i listen),but he doesnt use much arpeggios, or if he does, tell me songs because im starting at dream

  • @undergod334863 listen to the arpeggios in The Glass Prison (: they are sweeet! It's a wonder how he alternate pick them!

  • @GallowayJesse

    well Portnoy wrote this song so....

  • @GallowayJesse jesse who ever you are you are the dumbest guy ive met that fast playing at 4:48 is whats so great about dream theater!

  • @GallowayJesse If you had the world's best guitarist and the world's best keyboardist in your band, wouldn't you let them show off? I would. In every song. I imagine that's what Myung, Portnoy, and LaBrie feel about it.

  • @GallowayJesse well, something i understand from these days, dream is a progressive metal band, and yeah they got the point, and make fast solos for end the song is really a master piece... because if they dont make this things on their songs, they could lose this "magic", to my point of view, if they dont use this fast changes, this "could" be boring..... and something more, lot of people want to hear petrucci´s solos here :D

  • @GallowayJesse hey stfu b4 you get smackn the fuck up dumb ass faggot an no it to add to the progressiveness of this song not to show off if they were doing that of corse petrucci would go 500 times faster so stfu cause hes not showing off faggot

  • @GallowayJesse It's their song and I happen to enjoy that part of their song. The purpose of that part was to be the end of the song. It complemented this song perfectly.

  • @GallowayJesse

    Some people's preference of musical entertainment is to listen to musicians who have talent. I personally would consider that talent, but if you would beg to differ, please, enlighten me.

  • @ihateusernamemaking

    Of course dream theater is talented but if you think that talent means playing a billion notes per second then you're well...a typical dream theater fan, congratz.

  • @GallowayJesse

    well, okay. i don't doubt that i am. so what is talent then?

  • @GallowayJesse Talent isn't restricted to a certain skill. Playing a billion notes per second obviously requires much skill. Not many people are able to pull that off, etc. But it's not just fast playing that what makes Dream Theater. There are reasons why they receive the many nominations and rewards they receive.

  • @GallowayJesse the whole point of music is to "show off" how an artist plays. if you dont like it, so be it , its your interpretation of it

  • @GallowayJesse If you don't like that part.... wonder what you think of Dragonforce. ;)

  • @phoenix7289 good point, they make fast paced music, DT, on the other hand, normally does a mixture like this

  • @phoenix7289 dragon force fans not allowed here

  • @JL199598 Never said I like Dragonforce. Look at the comment I was responding to for shit's sake. I was making a sarcastic remark about how BAD DragonROFL is.

  • @phoenix7289 dragonforce sucks. they cant play live

  • @GetFuckingAngry Never said I like Dragonforce. Look at the comment I was responding to for shit's sake. I was making a sarcastic remark about how BAD DragonROFL is.

  • @phoenix7289 its true they do sound bad bu they arent bad musicians they are good at what they do but just because you dont like there music doesnt mean its not good to some other people

  • @GallowayJesse whats wrong with seeing how fast people can play i think its pretty cool to see how fast people can play and putting it into songs doesnt make it awful your obviously to caught up in jealousy to make sense in your comments

  • @ghostdude222 It's not a matter of whether or not it's cool...it's freaking awesome. However if you listen to the beginning of the song that ending doesn't really flow with the rest of the tune. Ive been listening to DT for years and they are prob the best collection of rock musicians ever put together, talent wise. I did think the whole 80's speed metal was a little overkill after the easy flowing melodies in the rest of the song. But you know what, thats also my personal opinion.

  • @jedipudu well that change up from melodic to speed is what makes this album different from the rest think of other songs on the album in the name of god and endless sacrifice or even stream of consciousness for that matter all do the same thing this is doing they bring it in nice and soft like and turn into something big and heavy and fast

  • damn!!!! just 8698 views!!!!!!!!! THE HOLE WORLD MUST HEARD THIS SONG!!!!!!!

  • How about this: Petrucci, Mustaine, Friedman, and Broderick are all amazing guitarists. Different styles is all.

  • Damn men feel the power: 0:47

  • Poor songwriting...

  • 3:13

  • 0:48 - 0:51 heard like Slipknot - Duality

  • I love your inclusion of the copyright disclaimer. Very nice.

  • From 4:57 to 5:00, was that a guitar? Or a bass?

  • @Hi456ify it is the guitar, probably a 6-stringed one. You can hear the difference between the guitar tones and the bass tones at around 5:05

  • From 4:57 to 5:00, was that a guitar? Or a bass?

  • @Hi456ify: guitar

  • John is better than Mustaine!

  • @Hi456ify Good lord yes. By a million light years lol.

  • i liked this part at 0:00 - 5:44 :P

  • @TakuyaDan

    I like that exact part in video part 1 as well! What a coincidence! Though mine goes to 5:45...

  • @TakuyaDan HAHA I really agree! I just found out how long this AA saga went on. I thought it started with The Root of All Evil...but I was SO wrong and I'm glad about that...means more awesome riffs!

  • @TakuyaDan and last second xD?

  • @TakuyaDan More like -5:45 to 5:45 :P

  • @TakuyaDan Your wrong in one way dude, they made a massive mistake at 5:44

  • @JORDANVITALIJWIRMAN yeah, finishing a song like that is a massive mistake! :D

  • 2:23 Dave Mustaine mode xD

  • yeah!!!! you're right...I thought the same the first time I heard it :D

  • @123454321qcat I think Petrucci blows Mustaine away ( and prolly would blow him lol) but he definitely was influenced by Mustaine...Petrucci says of the Fatal Tragedy solo he does on the Metropolis Pt 2 DVD "Now for the Megadeth..." and fuckin rips it...not sure if Mustaine could ever play that good but they're both sick to me.

  • @Rectanglectum

    Haha i think when i posted that comment I meant Labrie's voice sounded like Mustaine. But yeah i've heard that both petrucci and portnoy are megafans. John is a better lead player than mustaine definitely, but most of megadeth's lead guitarist (friedman, poland, broderick) are on petrucci's level.

  • @123454321qcat totally, I clicked your timestamp after I wrote that and was like, oh, but I'd say Broderick is the only one around Petrucci's level, not taking nothing away from Friedman or Poland as good as they are Petrucci is on some next level futuristic cyborg shit.

  • @123454321qcat 4:48 World Domination Mode xD

  • @miquillen if he played any faster at that part all our heads would explode hahahaha

  • @123454321qcat and 1:34 xd

  • @123454321qcat XD thats a good one
