Devin Townsend Project - Watch You

[Sodhats]

An album full of stuff like this would be better than all four DTP albums. What happened to Ghost 2?

[Itzael996]

@Sodhats Dev said that he wanted to release it for free, but many people got involved and they didn't want him to do so. According to him, obviously. There's very little talk on Ghost 2 so it will take a while before any actual info on it.

[Hank4real]

Wow, this song and Terminal are the best mellow songs of Devin, so intense and bring you in such a good mood, I love them so much!! Good work Devin!!!

[ThreexDaysxofxMercy]

This is freaking magic...

[chriswhiteedwards]

god this is awsome.hope theres a release date soon???best not play this if im driving !!!

[Megawatt]

Cool to hear some funky electronic stuff from Dev. Too bad the project with Rhys Fulber never panned out.

[genericmetalname]

Heh, starting at 7:24 there are some lines from the song Stand.

[ziltoid420]

How does one man keep his music so fresh and different while releasing 2 CD's a year? That's more than most 4 person bands can pull off.

[salmacis81]

@ziltoid420

Because I find that it's easier to work alone than in a group of four members

[OBNOXIOUSUSERNAME]

certain parts of this would make for a kick ass disco remix

[jloo222]

there's 3 different uploads of this song on youtube and the quality is poor on all three. what gives?

[Itzael996]

@jloo222 If you're looking for quality, why are you even trying on YouTube?

[jloo222]

upload quality isnt very good though

[jloo222]

this is beautiful and should have been on the original Ghost album. I don't understand how this guy does it. his brain belongs in a museum.

[unthoughtknown89]

where can i download the album????

[Mr360Sam]

Love this song so much. Ive heard Ghost about 30 times, when this one comes out ill probably do the same :) Amazing stuff

[Itzael996]

Update: Apparently there's no actual release date for Ghost 2, so it'll probably be on the box set and we'll have to wait a little more.

[Gargron]

That something kicking in at about 2:55, them goosebumps ♥

[Itzael996]

@Gargron Why yes, I know exactly what you mean. I absolutely love it.

[edanclarke]

Wow

[reaperette]

Cowboy sent me!!!

[0hHawtDam]

I believe at one point devin said that the stand riff was originally meant to be on ki, and I was always wondering what that would sound like. I guess this is ghost 2, not ki, but ghost 2 kinda has the same feel as ki, but darker, so I think this is actually better

[DrMopinker]

There's a Ghost2?? Goddammit Devin stop taking my money!!! Wtf am I saying, carry on

[rowdyJ0E]

This is a very sexy version of Stand, even though Stand is already sexy itself.

Therefore this is... a VERY sexy version of Stand.

[lasoogneypubes]

@rowdyJ0E This doesn't sound anything like Stand except the riff that rips it off. Stop smoking crack.

[rowdyJ0E]

@lasoogneypubes Yes, I do know that. The whole reason I was saying that is because of the riff.

[lasoogneypubes]

@rowdyJ0E But that doesn't make the whole song sound like Stand. Just that part.

[WebCamCartmell]

Holy fuck when the Stand riff kicked in I jizzed everywheOH GOD THERE IT IS AGAIN ~~~~~~~

[zarucarsha]

The riff at 5:02 reminds me of the one used in "Stand." Hmmmm. Besides for that little thing, I really really like this song. Probably going to get this album.

[Itzael996]

@zarucarsha That's because it's the Riff from Stand. Devin makes self-references all the time.

[zarucarsha]

@Itzael996 Ha. I saw that after I'd actually listened to the whole song. He borrowed some lyrics towards the end, too, which I think made it feel more artistic and less simply plagiarized.

[windriderrr]

@Itzael996 I guess that happens with every concept-album / album groups.

The DTP only being a huge one. Not sure you should call that "self-reference", which above all sounds very pretentious. Devin isn't that much full of himself.

[windriderrr]

But thanks for posting these tunes !

[Pensikopf]

@zarucarsha & Itzael:

And he doesn't leave it at that. Right after the Riff from Stand (Decon) has faded, the melody from As You Were (Ghost) sets in. Now that's what I call a perfect blending of the two albums! ;)

[IVIALJA]

@zarucarsha I believe the riff after that one is derived from a song from ghost (or ki). Don't know what song though, as I usually listen the whole album without looking at the song names

[IVIALJA]

@zarucarsha oh nvm, someone already said that. It's from As You Were. Awesome :)

[min7b20billion]

5:02 STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[min7b20billion]

@min7b20billion Actually, now I hear its a lot of his songs connected.

[Kyrsamakkara]

@min7b20billion

Yeh, in the DTP albums there are many lyrics that are straight copied. And funny is that at Deconstruction, I think the song is Planet of the Apes (not sure tho) there is a part from Ziltoids Planet Smasher. ^^ A riff from that song. I find this kind of recycling total AWESOME.

[Loliciousfuga]

Sounds like he's aiming for less ambiance and more rhythm focused music. Got a nice balance between the two in this song.

[Zemard]

This strong song does connect to every other albums from DTP.

I'm awed.

Long live Devin!

[Abon666]

When will Ghost 2 be released?

[Itzael996]

@Abon666 Devin has only stated that it may be released on September. Ratman :D

[deadpisser88]

I won't lie, Ghost was hard to swallow after listening to Deconstruction. When he meant mellow and pretty, he really fucking meant it lol.

But this here? More up my alley. I totally dig this track.

[Andinator]

@deadpisser88 hit the nail on the head man, i feel the same way

[Mrduderpants]

I am stoked for this record!

[mayonaden]

where have i heard thar first chord sequence before? i know that stand is incorporated later in the song, but that very first part. i'm sure i've heard it before somewhere.

[dragonzith]

@mayonaden coast maybe

[1truegod777]

this is one of the better songs ive heard in a while. its great, but thats what you expect from devin. thanks for posting it.

[kirosdawn]

I am totally into this song :) I like the "Stand" and "As You Were" theme and variation. Thanks for posting it (was this one of the four downloads with the bundle? I want to get them, but I also want the bonus songs that iTunes is offering for Decon and Ghost...why can't one place just have it all?!)

[peedeebanana]

ewww tits that's gross

[ReptillianHighPriest]

My god this is so amazing

[Seligsuper]

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY DISLIKES.

[ManChiggerDude]

@Seligsuper More than likely some prick spamming accounts to dislike the video. Must be uber jealous of Devs' talent.

[FleshIsFlawed]

@Seligsuper

Some people just cant deal with things that aren't 100% unadulterated metal, makes them feel naked and open for attack, if there isn't a constant barrage of sound they might feel some kind of tenderness or something.

[HevyDevy101]

@Seligsuper That'll be 7 people still crying about the demise of SYL and not embracing Dev as an overall artist ..... probably

[MetallicaRush101]

@HevyDevy101 I'd take his solo work over SYL any day... Strapping is good but his solo stuff is far superior.

[UpTheIrons1994]

Ghost 2 is already getting leaked?

[noobpota2]

@UpTheIrons1994 Some of the tracks are given as a free download when you buy deconstruction/ghost I think
