This is honestly one of the all time greatest pieces of music ever made, this albums should be regarded among the very great of our era, Arjen really doesn't get as much credit as he deserves outside of his fan base.
{ My Mouth open wide}Progressive music (& Bluegrass)my favourite since 1967,with YouTube its amazing how much good music comes along.THIS would have been up with the great progressive bands of 1967-77!!
No matter how many times I listen to this song and watch the video it has a way of making me smile and bring tears of joy to my eyes. It´s absolutely breathtaking and beautiful and it underlines why I´m such a huge fan of Ayreon :-))
I discovered Ayreon yesterday when I read about Within Temptation .Sharon den Adel(from Within Temptation) worked with Ayreon . and I must say this is very good music.
His vision is soo depicted musically. Ayreon doesnt have to try, like the rest!!! First albumn was rejected by all the producers and now they see what vision really is...
I have to say that I prefer the version from the cd, where Hansi had repeated his part for three times: at first alone, nextly with accompaniment of Anneke and at the very end with Anneke and Floor in the background. And I suppose that this ending part is longer on the cd.
@Decklocation At first, I was like "4:17? What the fuck are you talking about? That's Jorn, asshole!" But then I realized that this is a shorter version than the album version. My internet sucks today. Bah. You win this round, lolinterwebz.
@Taljljlj lol many good bands over many different genres and then you have the creative genius of arjen w/ his bands that covers soooo many genres lol
This made my Nipples go hard i swear, and i ain't female nor gay, stunning track, i can't wait to imagine what the rest of the new album will do to me. Bring it on !!!
Best song of the album, if you ask me !

I started with Haggard's "ad astra per aspera" which led me to Neverland's "Shooting Star" which led me to Ayreon's "Beneath the Waves".
I have lost my ability to think in words ... Soul took over ... sort of like being healed, blessed, and awakened at the same time.
