I was never into this song although Awake is one of my favorite DT albums. Was tripping pretty hard just trying to keep my mind together laying in my dead in the dark. Was just listening to the whole awake album and this song came up...fucking beautiful. Listened to it a couple times in a row to keep the mood.
beautiful song good job man..... ow yeah i tryed to put ''lifting shadows of a dream'' on here but it says i cant because of copyright... wat have you done different to have this song on here???? please help :'(
When I listen to this song... I don't think about anything... It just shuts down my brain and I go into some amazing state. I feel high almost... Its pretty sweet.
Classic Kevin Moore. He's definitely my favourite of the Keyboardists... but only by a little because Derek and Jordan are all amazing themselves. But there just is something about Kevin that you just can't recapture with another Keyboardist. He's unique, one of a kind.
he later explained that he said fell in love metaphoricly,and that he just stared at the model and developed strong feeling that faded in some seconds,a result of his relationship ending and him having more to give...
pienso que lo que estaba tratando de captar es la soledad y el desamparo que espresa esta cancion. de cierta manera yo creo que si tiene algo que ver, pero tambien creo que si tienes razon
for me it's ok, but in some parts the video has to be more syncronised with the theme. You're putting only images of 2001 and it's cool (because that film captures a similiar feeling, dark and deep), but don't be so limitated. Go further, take it to another level (more deep, and mechanical). Keep working on sync.
PD: For the main people that post comments here: this video is suppossed to be commented about the video, not about the song either kevin moore or jordan.
Great song. It has never been performed live though! Kevin Moore was replaced on keyboards after this album. When the other members are asked about performing it they say it is "Kevin's song". Jordan Ruddess says he is ready to perform it though. Maybe they will some day. Can't wait for the new Dream Theater album coming out in June!! Studio album #11, Black Clouds and Silver Linings!!!
yeah, I've heard they'll be using some choir sounds (???!!!), and gothic style in their new album, so we'll see... I don't want to be skeptical, but I want PROG metal, with lots of shred and weird time signatures
When I listen to this song, I imagine myself waking up half dead in a barren wasteland
staring into the silver sky lit by thousands of stars and a giant moon. Then I suddenly come face to face with a translucent image of the girl once loved, who reminds me of all my suffering and the pain of separation.
At the same time it gives me a reason to grow stronger. Omg every Dream Theater song shows me various images in my head, sometimes hard to comprehend. thats why I love their music :D
One of my favourite songs. The point at around 4:33 where the long power chord preludes the build up to the ending is damn powerful. Video doesn't do it for me though. Song, IMHO, is about someone (Kevin) building emotional walls and losing their highs and lows. Video captures the lonliness, but not that.
i'm an artist and i have some of the better vids on this site ... everything you see and hear on my vids i do all by myself ... and it's a lot of hard work
but i need your help ... i'm trying really hard to get exposure so that maybe i could do art for a living
i'm so good at art ... and i just don't want to waste all this talent ... and i have so much to give
so please help me and subscribe and tell people about me
It's about Kevin Moore who saw a girl on an advertisement magazine. Probably includes a lot of other things though >.> Space-Dye Vest was the product.
but this video i think will have no more future...when Dream theather's band or major will see this video i think they will close this vid....i hope this brilliant idea will not die for commercial interests...we all love this song .....this is my song,is a part of my life, is the pain of my life....dedicated to my mother...i will see you in another life in another way
u remember well...i think kubrik's ideas and dream theater progressive songs fits so incredibly. i did it in about 5mins and my mind was entering in a progressive mind state like kubrik ......this is progressive
Not bad but the whole video is just ripped of the space odyssey so how can you "imagine" something that is already made... And How exactly did you "make" this? Thumbs up for theater space dye vest. Thumbs up for choosing the footage. SERIOUSLY thumbs down for ripping off Kubrick...
i did this video in about 5minuts serously....it was so easy but...when i was seeing the movie i heard this song ;) i don't want to be a good director...i only love this song
I first heard this song a couple of years ago and LOVED it. Then somehow I lost the song and ever since then I kept searching and searching. I forgot the lyrics and even forgot the fact that it's by DREAM THEATRE.
FINALLY.....after all these time I found it at 5:46 AM! I am gonna mark this date on my calander hahaha
o'rly? pff i know dude but i prefer his voice.. i mean labrie's voice sometimes sucks..mostly at lives.. though he did great performance in thi song..
Kevin Moore had broken up recently and was still bitter and lost. He was reading some fashion magazine and "fell in love" with a girl who was wearing piece of clothing named "Space-Dye Vest"... And thought that was insane. And he wrote a song about those feelings and so.
I think Wikipedia has a good article about it, in case you want to know more.
Lovely and bueatiful and just totally awesome anyone know where i can get the music for the keyboard part at all? my and a couple of mates anna play this for a school concert
kevin moore is a great keyboardist but i think jordan rudess is more rocking. but with kevin moore, most of the songs are memorable. like this song. very sweet and lonelt but i love it :D GOOD MOVIE MAN
Ah, Space Dye Vest... A beautiful relic of the past left behind by Kevin Moore before he departed Dream Theater.
This song doesn't sound anything like DT's other stuff... but it just goes to show that there's a certain style that only Kevin Moore can make. Rudess is the best in skill, I think, but Kevin Moore certainly has something special about him.
I want to find Chroma Key, but I can't find it anywhere... :(
since every one else is ranting on about DT's newest album and what not, im gonna say cool video, and what i imagine when i hear this song is totally different. buts that the point right?
really miss kevin moore's spoken word samples but he is an idiot for leaving such a majestic bad. but am not complaining coz i like rudess's works more
ever notice that with any other video there's a bunch of people arguing in the comments? but when it comes to dream theater,...everyone just kinda praises them and everyone else tends to agree...i love it. DT rules....this video is gorgeous
yes but I also like to think of a band as an entity of itself, which like the human entity has the ability to change and morph over time. I mean how boring would it be if they made 26 albums of stuff that all sounded the same and they never evolved? Some people dig their old stuff, some people prefer their newer stuff, and some, like me, enjoy all of it because it's all so damn awesome. :D
So so true. Whilst Images and Words I believe to be the pinnacle of music, they have developed, and have produced masterpieces spanning twenty years. I must say I was slightly disappointed by Systematic Chaos, but I have every faith in them.
Systematic chaos was slightly disapointing, although forsaken and dark eternal night were pretty good. Still the rest seemed to me like they were trying to be a bit more metallicaesque, and I'll never understand why a band that is so much better than metallica would want to be metallica.
Their next album I forsee being much better as Labrie is SLOWLY beginning to get his vocal prowess back. Still no where near 94 or earlier, but closer than he was in 02.
Yes, the fact that Dream Theater are such big fans amazes me, becuase they are so much more innovative and skilled. I think that SC was very poor lyrically, as there was no depth or beauty like there usually is. But every band has a blip, and if that's their's, then things are looking good. There were a few gems - Repentance was my favourite. Plus, LaBrie IS getting there. He's done so well, he's done everyone proud, and whilst from 92 to 94 he was the best he'll ever be, he'll get back.
If you ask me, his best years were more like 89 through 95. Change of seasons, with the exception of the title track, was recorded live if I recall, and that was in 95. He didn't do too bad on that one if you ask me.
He's had some good performances since then too. 2000 wasn't too bad for him.
I'm just waiting for his tone to come back. I don't care about his range, but his old tone, from the piercing pure tones to the grittier stuff. Pull me under just isn't the same without the grit.
Yes, his best years were probably 89 to 95. I personally think that in the studio he always delivers; because they take recording at a speed he's comfortable with. His performance live is much less consistant, but that's an inevitable problem after what he's faced. I think his take on Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulance was outstanding, and as you say, it's the tone that makes him stand out. The fact that he has endless shades makes him for me, the greatest vocalist today.
because Im passing through a very bad time
just rock...

ever notice that with any other video there's a bunch of people arguing in the comments? but when it comes to dream theater,...everyone just kinda praises them and everyone else tends to agree...i love it. DT rules....this video is gorgeous

umm . . . dunno what you mean by 2001. This song was released in 94. But 2001 is cool too I guess.. :)

So atmospheric and dark. Moore's solo work must be very interesting. Anyone listened to his albums outside Dream Theater ?

It's cuz Kevin Moore left Dream Theater; I aint saying they're worse off now, but the style does change with the changing of artists, that's all!

yes but I also like to think of a band as an entity of itself, which like the human entity has the ability to change and morph over time. I mean how boring would it be if they made 26 albums of stuff that all sounded the same and they never evolved? Some people dig their old stuff, some people prefer their newer stuff, and some, like me, enjoy all of it because it's all so damn awesome. :D

I agree, friend. The case with me is, I liked their heavier stuff from Train of Thought, but here I am listening to their calmer, older works!

So so true. Whilst Images and Words I believe to be the pinnacle of music, they have developed, and have produced masterpieces spanning twenty years. I must say I was slightly disappointed by Systematic Chaos, but I have every faith in them.

Systematic chaos was slightly disapointing, although forsaken and dark eternal night were pretty good. Still the rest seemed to me like they were trying to be a bit more metallicaesque, and I'll never understand why a band that is so much better than metallica would want to be metallica.
Their next album I forsee being much better as Labrie is SLOWLY beginning to get his vocal prowess back. Still no where near 94 or earlier, but closer than he was in 02.

Yes, the fact that Dream Theater are such big fans amazes me, becuase they are so much more innovative and skilled. I think that SC was very poor lyrically, as there was no depth or beauty like there usually is. But every band has a blip, and if that's their's, then things are looking good. There were a few gems - Repentance was my favourite. Plus, LaBrie IS getting there. He's done so well, he's done everyone proud, and whilst from 92 to 94 he was the best he'll ever be, he'll get back.

If you ask me, his best years were more like 89 through 95. Change of seasons, with the exception of the title track, was recorded live if I recall, and that was in 95. He didn't do too bad on that one if you ask me.
He's had some good performances since then too. 2000 wasn't too bad for him.
I'm just waiting for his tone to come back. I don't care about his range, but his old tone, from the piercing pure tones to the grittier stuff. Pull me under just isn't the same without the grit.
ozzymeetsjesus 3 years ago
Yes, his best years were probably 89 to 95. I personally think that in the studio he always delivers; because they take recording at a speed he's comfortable with. His performance live is much less consistant, but that's an inevitable problem after what he's faced. I think his take on Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulance was outstanding, and as you say, it's the tone that makes him stand out. The fact that he has endless shades makes him for me, the greatest vocalist today.
