"Lazarus" PORCUPINE TREE

[Segerzzang]

No matter how bad things get... this song shields you from any harm.

[Galileus070]

Glad to see this video again. Great band, beautiful song.

[ajay0nz]

one of my most favorite tracks. It's perfect :)

but it's really PATHETIC that it has ONLY 78,000 views :@ what the fu*k is wrong with people??!?! :@

[notTHEcher]

because most people don't listen to bands that are MUSICIAN BANDS. they want poppy crap. bands like PT, rush, tool, etc...are ignored because they have layers to their music and/or lyrics and are INTELLIGENT. who'd want THAT - something you'd have to actually have to have a BRAIN to understand?! oh wait. that'd be ME. I'D want that! :P

[marinafob798]

nice song

[jameszbn]

Beautiful song, poor audio quality.

[TheCletus007]

[AJAyOn1]

But I really don't get it! why does this wonderful song has only this much views?? :S it should at least have MILLIONS! :|

[mithilsampat92]

/watch?v=P6ivZqDkIBc Same song. A slideshow. Beautiful journey.

[Eupackardia]

they took it off the air from youtube a while ago, glad to see it back on :)

[jeorjemika]

This one comes as no surprise a sequel to all amzing music Porcupine tree has delivered throughout the years, by now they ve just got wider audience, not as many as they deserve, though!!! Perfect song from a perfect band

[GeckOtheGanjahead]

this song could get you high!,and if u have weed??it willtake you higher

[mondayparacetamol]

no point in keeping this online...

[EphemeralShine]

ARRRGHHHH for fucks sakes stop removing the audio or were not gonna buy your cds!!!! hehe

[ethrmz]

great song.

I want to close my eyes and let it take me away when I listen to it.

[sarge331]

Words cannot describe!

[JMG1970]

Easily one of the most beautiful songs ever written......

[rickyleepilfer]

You think all of the great songs have already been written,

then along comes this one.

[shaktitrip]

peacd out track,luv it !! but hu iz david an lazarus :P ??

[ricardinho101]

i love this song, it's so inspirational!

[whosaidsoup13]

somebody hasn't listened to too much Porcupine Tree...

[Hesellssantuary]

Absolutely beautiful.

[sykesh21]

porcupine tree 4 ever!!

3:18 Awesome

[DoopeyDino]

Just Pure awesome

[OregonDuck54]

i love porcupine trees but their music now is more dark and punk. But its songs like collapse light into earth and lazarus that i truly love

[Br3yd3n]

Probably a little reverb, maybe a little delay? MAYBE even at certain parts a hint of chorus.

[Mantooth901]

u know there is so many ppl living in america who have no idea whatsoever who this band is even though theyre the most ridiculously awesome band ever so if u live in the U.K. comment on here if they are unknown there also since they started from there

[shadowskout]

i live in the U.S. and i <3 procupine tree

[Lethkhar14]

Same here.

[JulE0n]

Same. These guys are awesome.

[Sean2112bd]

Sound of Muzak is an awesome song, and sadly it's the truth. I actually saw a Beatles video here on youtube and it too only had 2 million views. There seriously should be some kind of musical revolution, because the music today just makes me sick inside.

[Ilcristorandom]

The Sound Of Muzak

.

[UroflMYwaffle]

There once was a man from Peru

Who dreamt he was eating his shoe

He awoke in a fright

in the middle of the night

and found it was perfectly true

Now I'm "deep" and "misunderstood" as well.

[Lethkhar14]

That's funny.

[ar1k]

I understand you comrade.

[shadowskout]

great song

this song is just how i feel right now

[Stratophony]

is this an actual music video?  I had no idea they'd made one for Lazarus.

truly amazing song btw.

[Ilcristorandom]

Music is not a number,music is emotion perhaps all number of visit are useless.

Sorry for bad english but i am Italian xD.

La bravura non deve essere il sucesso di un artista, ma deve riuscire nel compito di farti provare qualcosa,quindi per me riesce alla grande nel suo intento.Beh agli altri lascio i proprri gusti,inconsapevoli della bellezza che si stanno perdendo,ma sono pur sempre gusti.

[Sean2112bd]

Only 35,000 views? Why are untalented artists like the Jonas Brothers getting 50,000,000 views while Porcupine Tree is getting a mere fraction of that. I think we're in the dark ages of music. I honestly believe that our youth have been brainwashed and polluted with horrible music. Thank you MTV.

[livvi67]

Yeah, I saw my sister watching a Miley Cyrus video with 55 million viws. I can't believe that this only has 35k!

[Sonarion]

The music of rebellion

Makes you wanna rage

But it's made by millionaires

Who are nearly twice your age

One of the wonders of the world is going down

It's going down I know

It's one of the blunders of the world that no-one cares

No-one cares enough

[livvi67]

Sound of Muzak - love that song.

[Lethkhar14]

I'm young and insulted. *glares*

[PestifeR]

@Sean2112bd absolutely !

[Abiggell]

@PestifeR ...assent...

[drunkandstupid27]

@Sean2112bd your right look at lady gaga she just rips of all pop stars says its her own and its sell tons today kids don't know how to think for them self im not really in to the slow style today but wow they are really good

[LuchoZ07]

Truly beautiful.

[JulE0n]

The fact that Porcupine Tree is able to right a song this beautiful is amazing. The fact that they are able to write these types of songs consistently (Collapse Light into Earth, Trains, Even Less, Don't Hate Me) is incredible.

[ricebaker13]

the "my david don't you worry" bridge kills me every time. lovely.

[arisgow]

@ricebaker13 yessss! rewind and play all the time...

[SardinaSeca]

beautiful, am speechless *o*

[UrbanSpower]

AMAZING

[gsangiolillo]

Your right, right in the beginning with the voice in the background it sounds like the beginning to "Nude" on In Rainbows.

[littlestpretzel]

Yes, well thats because Radiohead can't help but steal material nowadays.

[rabbitrp]

Sorry men, but radiohead is one of the greatest bands alive, the have their unique style and they reinvent themselves album through album, the difference is that when you listen to PT you can easily see the diference of who are better musicians (PT by far!)

[024yeknom]

I agree radiohead rocks.

Porcupine tree is kinda mellow so far, Idk I never heard them til this very second. My friend told me to listen to them so I did.

[berryuan]

I prefer Porcupine tree over Radiohead, I mean Radiohead is great live, but i think all of their songs sound alike, I mean they're good but they should experiment new things every now and then..

[ricardinho101]

agreed...

[edwinheida]

... serious. open your ears.

I think Radiohead covers quite a broad spectrum of music. In Rainbows, their latest album, is fantastic.

Porcupine tree is great. But I don't think you should compare both of them though. tbh.

[Scirzo]

Off course you mean to say: Radiohead is sort of ok, but nowhere near the musical genious of Porcupine Tree...

Yes?

Ok, thanks!

[edwinheida]

Was commenting on ppl saying Radiohead don't cover a broad spectrum :) Is all.

Anyway.

/biased Radiohead fan

[Flatliner0452]

they have a very diverse catalog, even listening to a few albums there will be aspects of them that you don't even know exist.

[rabbitrp]

I'm a huge fan of radiohead, and it is one of my favorite bands... they do cover a broad spectrum, when you listen to diferent songs like Paranoid Android, Reckoner, We suck young blood, Go to sleep, myxomatosis, a wolf at the door, etc. you can see how broad they can be, but, and this was something really hard for me to accept, but Porcupine Tree are far better musicians, man, listening to Tinto Brass, or Russia on Ice, or wedding nails takes to another level (better if your stoned, jajaja)

[rabbitrp]

no man! porcupine tree is not mellow at all!! you should listen to them completely, radiohead is far more mellow, at least lately... this guys are awesome musicians, and the drummer is one of the best drummers I've ever heard, I listened to this guys first probably 3 ago, and I bought alreay 6 of their albums, couldn't buy more cause you rarely find this tipe of music in my country... trust me, better musicians than radiohead (It was hard for me to accept, but I had to)

[Flatliner0452]

dude, internet is your savior when it comes to hard to find music, just buy off of PT's site, and you are giving them more money that way as well since a retailer doesn't take a cut.

[rabbitrp]

well, that's true, but I was just to desperate to get their music that I had to buy them the fastest way possible, but I'm still missing lightbulb sun, which I consider is one of the best albums they have!

[alosza666]

<333

[NerveBot]

This song reminds me of Radio Head.

[screamingunderneath]

love the piano

[sykesh21]

wow! one of my best songs!!

AWESOME song..feel it! feel the sound of drum..just GREAT!

[Realist0123]

Magnifique.

5/5

<3

[NervousPeter]

I love this song, it has something sad and sentimental över it.

[soldierlittleboy]

this aint soljalittleboi his sis but my mates n i sing this song

[metallipipex]

excelente cancion

la cago, notable creacion de Steve Wilson

Porcupine Tree es lo maximo

[Robertpianosax]

Eh....i like Twilight and all, but their more Paramore than Porcupine Tree. :P And HEY! i like Paramore too.

[samuraimachone]

wow... i dont really dont do this often

but.. this comment is stupid in its purest form

[Robertpianosax]

how? Twilight is fails beside Porcupine Tree. They are better than paramore by a million times.

[HRYFIRE]

Of course. They have no comparison. Paramore is shit in every way possible beside PT, Porcupine Tree is art, sentimental, sweet, delicious. Musically perfect.. The four of them make one of the most powerful bands in the entire world, the critics say that they are the new Pink Floyd. ¿Paramore is the new... nothing? Following a fashion created by Blink 182 and Green Day for the midddle aged teenagers.. Porcupine Tree has a bright future, Paramore when the "emo fashion" is over.. it won't have.

[SardinaSeca]

i agree, even when the voice of the girl from Paramore is good, i mean VERY GOOD, the band sucks. it's just comercial. ILOVEPORCUPINETREE! this is real art.

[Lethkhar14]

See, I don't even understand the whole "OMG TEH SINGER FROM PARAMORE IS DA SHIT!!!" thing...I mean, in my opinion, she has a mediocre range at best and a generic tone. There's really nothing that sets her apart from, say, a high school choirgirl.

Not that high school choirgirls are bad; there are some fantastic high school choirgirls. She just wouldn't be one of them.

[SardinaSeca]

I think she can sing. If she'd want to, she could be a good singer. But the music she's in is just shit. Paramore is shit, but she has potential in her voice and she can do a lot of things with it. That's my opinion. I don't know how to explain it but, there's a lot of famous people (i can't say artists) that having a lot of technic and all are not musicians at all. She´s like that. She doesn't want understand what music really is because of the comercial stuff she sings.

[VBEJFBREKJH]

OI WANKER.

if you dont have a comment about the band or song in this thread, then fuck off.

and ps.

noones going to take you seriously if you cant get paragraphs properly presented.

wanker.

[SardinaSeca]

Sorry if i have a mistake but english isn't my first language, if u want i'll write in spanish. But i think the idea can be understood. And dude, u just wrote a comment that's not about the band nor the song.

PORCUPINE TREE IS ART, REAL MUSIC. Happy?

me importa un pico qe nadie me tome en cuenta imbecil, si se supone qe nadie lo hace pa qe me respondi? ASSHOLE!

[xphil45]

ou are a rapist

[SardinaSeca]

no, i think am not.

[xphil45]

yeah you are

[SardinaSeca]

but why? ¬¬

[EtherealWaves]

haha...oh man some ppl

[shnazzytux]

true true.

[Satinsita]

lol, what does paramore has to do with porcupine tree? haha

that girl's voice is so....bleh... whatever.

porcupine tree is beautiful music.

[SardinaSeca]

someone mentioned it because of twilight

[ratterchan]

... I understand what Paramore has to do with Twilight, but what does Porcupine Tree have to do with Twilight? XD

I love Porcupine Tree, their music is so pretty. I could listen to it all day.

[WoodlandAsh]

lovely song

[weirdbrother15]

Help me! Today I listened to this song 20-30 times. Maybe because I feel nostalgic of some past years, maybe I wish a better future, maybe I was just thinking about the far distance of some people I love.

Great song!!!

[caasddg]

and how would you prefer to be helped?

[xdymna]

lov this song, actually whenever i listen that i m sad... song for bad days.

[Keyboardzrock]

Beautiful.

[masho1993]

LV this song! <3

[hero169]

this song is pro.

[iggyfer]

This song is amazing. It's not like the other Porcupine Tree stuff I've heard but it takes a band like them to write something as beautiful as this

[GoGetter18]

This song lets me thin over some thing and brings old memories

[chaous2000]

Ya so this is like one of my fav songs by them :D:D:D i wish they would come to America, i would so go and watch it wherever they were to play. ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS!!

[alightbulbsun]

chaus2000, they did tour america, i drove down to Seatle from Vancouver to see their Fear in a blank planet show, amazing show bytheway...  LAZARUS:MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG EVER CREATED.

[candymanego]

I hated this song when I first heard it...

But it grew on me and I very much enjoy it now.

One of the best bands ever!

[jordanrudessrulesok]

I heard somewhere that this song features "The Keyboardist from Dream Theater" could anyone tell me which keyboardist? To me it sounds a little Kevin Moore, certianly more so than it does Derek Sherinian, and i would be very surprised if this is Jordan Rudess. So I guess this is Moore, but it there isn't enough keys variety for me to tell really. Anyone know?

[HridayGuitarHazarika]

As far as I know, it's Richard Barbieri (of Porcupine Tree) on the album version of the song. At least, Wikipedia says so.

*trusts Wikipedia with his life* :P

However, there IS a live version which features Jordan Rudess. I remember seeing the video on YouTube, but I can't seem to find it now.

*shrugs*

[VFLlions]

its jordan rudesss.. you can see the video right in the correlated videos

[kingofthephonies]

Absolutely wrong. There was a Jordan Rudess concert where Wilson came onstage and played this with him. That was a onetime deal. Rudess is a fan. And rightly so.

[Gansitopunkie]

Yeahp is Jordan Rudess

[dylanhicks48]

You are all wrong. The album version (this video) is played by none other than Steven Wilson. Most live performances feature Richard Barbieri on piano while Wilson sings and plays the guitar. And on one occasion it has featured Jordan Rudess.

[TheFillmoreJive]

Sounds a lot like that one band...Snow Patrol.

[XxSconeManxX]

similar to what someone just said, Snow Patrol seems a lot like Porcupine Tree, not vise-versa.

[TheFillmoreJive]

Why is it, do you think, that bands like Snow Patrol, Coldplay, etc. have such a marked similarity to these guys?

[gibs0nguitaro]

and yea....PT is actually magnificently musically gifted...while snow patrol is much more mediocre..

[TheFillmoreJive]

I don't disagree, i just thought it was interesting.

[mafalautalu]

it seems coldplay

[adam2664]

no, coldplay seem this song

[HarvesterofSorrow94]

This song is SO amazing! i love it... the beauty of the vocals go right to the heart!

[eaglepower1973]

Yeah,i met them a few times and Steven recognised me from the times before. Gavin wasnt in the band then,but the other drummer Chris Maitland was a nice guy! John Wesley wasnt playing live then,just Steven on guitar. With Wesley in the live band now it enhances their sound. I had a Signify T Shirt signed by the whole band and stupidly put in in the washing machine! I know,idiot! Now they have become bigger you cant just go backstage now,but the music makes up for it!

[thegoldencrumpet]

Seriously, i envy you deeply! XD and yes, that was stupid to do... but really you've seen 'em 15 times! gosh i wish i was you.

[eaglepower1973]

I hope you will get to see them one day! They say you should do things before you die. I say you must watch PT play live at least once!

[thegoldencrumpet]

yeah, i've said several times that once i see them my life will be content.

[eaglepower1973]

To the people that love PT,you all have great taste in music! I will be watching them for the 15th time LIVE in London this October and hope more albums come from the best band on earth!!!

[thegoldencrumpet]

I AM SO JEALOUS! I want so badly to see them live! Gavin Harrison and Steven Wilson are two of the best musicians currently alive!

Actually, i'd say that Steven is the greatest artist currently writing music.

And that Gavin is the best living drummer, or drummer period for all i know.

[eaglepower1973]

I was lucky.I went to watch another band in 1995 and PT were the support band.From that moment i thought they were fantastic.Their first gigs i went to had around 50 people watching and you could meet the band after the show for a chat!I agree about Steven and Gavin.Anyway,as you love PT i think you are a cool person!

[thegoldencrumpet]

DUDE! YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING! Did you really get to meet them? You are so lucky! and same to you, and to everyone who loves PT. =P

[N3CR0D3ATh]

neil peart from rush is miles better, lol. but pt does have a great drummer that finds good ways of complimenting the music nicely.

[thegoldencrumpet]

Niel Peart may be technically better, but Gavin Harrison is a lot more creative and has a lot of a smoother style. at least in my opinion

[N3CR0D3ATh]

i don't know, i been a rush fan for way longer then PT, lol.

[gibs0nguitaro]

haha sike!!!!!! neil pert is gavin's bitch.....get outta here....just leave...plus...neil needs a giant set to do a solo....gavin is just god.

[kingofthephonies]

If Gavin is God, Peart is God's creator. They are both amazing, but I'd have to say Peart is a step above.

[gibs0nguitaro]

obviously......u dont understand the technique and improv gavin is capable of.....i wont lie, pert was a revolutionary drummer....very important in drumming history....but gavin is just so much smoother and is a more dynamic drummer

[N3CR0D3ATh]

wow, come talk to me when you lose yourself some imaturity.

[gibs0nguitaro]

what you wanna talk about? the neil pert vs. harrison drum debate?

[xthebfgx]

damn you... come to the states!!!!!

[Joncalarvo]

Truly the best song from the Deadwing CD! And one of the best of Porcupine Tree - I love it, so beautiful!

[Sapiokolis]

How can only 4 thousand people have seen this beautifulvideo clip and around fucking 105 million people the stupid girlfriend with the even stupider avril lavigne

[siobhanaislinglocke]

best song ever but also the sadest ( well for me anyway)

[Rike0798]

Amazing.

[LuchoZ07]

Beautiful.

[sandiegoecho]

Men, learn a life lesson from Dave and go easy on the chemicals. You're too talented to deprive us of your creativity. We need talent like you to carry on the art. You're the best of your generation. Well done!

[AnybodyAndEverybody]

GREATEST SONG EVER!

[mopeedope]

i am stoned and lissening to this.

awesome song =]

[mcrXninjaXyo]

Wow, sharing that just makes you soooooo cool, doesn't it?

[Arkanadien]

I think not entirely, cos he hasn't gave us any information about "grass blend"

[N3CR0D3ATh]

same here, man. smooth and stylish, great stoner track for sure, dude.

[mcrXninjaXyo]

wooo
