  • It was on MTV, so i would assume yes.

  • i love this band...

  • is a good song this band is my favourite progressive metal band

  • the best band in the world

  • I honestly dont know, are creed metal. And if so are they even progressive?

  • On guitar hero Wolrd tour, is this song for all the systems? or just like 1 of them?

  • I'm Pretty Sure All oF'em, PS3 4 Sure.

  • I love this song so much! Its awesome to play on Guitar Hero xD

  • you suck

  • is this song in all guitar hero systems?

    or in just in 1?

  • Its only in Guitar Hero World Tour

  • AnRTPgA what do you mean?

  • never understood why it ends so suddenly...

  • the real song doesn't... the user cut off the last ten seconds or soo and added the awesome METAL TACO

  • damn i learning this too seems like everyone is or has its looks fun the most epic band ever

  • Dream Theater = gods of rock

  • this song is awesome

  • the drums on this sound much better than the 2007 remix version

  • YEah, Im learning this song and Im at that God-awful fast part, it's soooo hard...

  • Try usig only hammer-ons, it may help for you to get the right fingering

  • good song. i know how to play it! it's hard.

  • Fantastic powerfull song. Love it. _o_

  • love this song, petrucci's solo kicks ass

  • HEAVEN

  • SKILLED

  • i really like this song

  • i really dont like how this song ends how it just cuts out midword

  • yeah wtf, the ending is cut off. it's not supposed to be

  • i just bought the cd a few days ago and it does the exact same thing i just figured dream theater was being uncreative and didnt have any way to end the song

  • actually thats how it ends, it just ends on a random note

  • Actually it is supposed to be "cut off". It actually does finish out a measure of 4 though, listen carefully - 3 & 4 are emphasized and immediately followed by silence.

  • lewl

  • Dream Theater it's the best band ever:)

  • ummm no thr not but they hav a good song

  • Comment removed

  • Bit of a pity 'bout the lyrics, but LaBrie's voice is better than it often is, and HOLY FUCKING SHIT everything else. The ending, the drums, the opener, the face-smashing first heavy riff and how it builds under the opener, the FUCKING TEMPO CHANGE AT 5:30-ish, and just about everything else.

  • Mike Portnoy is the best drummer alive, very close is neil peart...

  • mike is one of if not the best. neal perat is good, but theres alot better

  • I'd say Rick Allen of Def Leppard...considering he only has ONE arm..

    aside from that Mike Portnoy is still awesome. thanks for posting this song!!

  • ...Yoshiki of X is also rather decent and some would argue that Vinnie Paul of Pantera is best. Truth is there is no best but rather different favorites to different people. That's how it all goes. (^_^)

  • neil peart is better drummer but portnoy has better drumming for progressive metal and stuff

  • Neil Peart is one of Mike Portnoy's influences.

  • im aware of that

  • Different styles. Comparison isn't very possible..

  • the drummer is beast^^

  • You mean MIKE PORTNOY? yes, yes he is.

  • Nice song;)

  • There's no doubt about it

    Dream Theatre are the best band around at the moment and probably the best progressive metal band ever.

    'This World is spinning around me' (epic)

  • What? Hahahahaha

  • as pathetic as it sounds i heard this song on gh world tour and it is great!

  • dream theater is awsome.

  • Comment removed

  • Is this song supposed to end abruptly like that? I don't have the CD yet, so I can't tell if the MP3 was ripped badly.

  • Yes.

  • yeah the endings are a trademark thing, listen to some of the other songs and you'll find a lot that end abruptly :-)

  • I've listened to most of their albums (except covers, ToT and FIF). This song just caught me by surprise because the instruments don't actually stop, the song cuts them off.

    Amazing song, by the way. If LaBrie didn't sing so many ear-piercing flat notes I could easily get everyone I know into this band.

  • I Love The Ending "MEATL = TACO"

  • I will always love this song.

  • Dream theatre is the best progessive metal band ever!!!! LOST IN THE SKY! DT for Life!

  • hear---Symphony X-The Divine Wings of Tragedy----21min long...btw nice song from DT...cya

  • hear---Dream Theater-Octavarium----23:59 long (full version)...and good symphony x song :D

  • dream theater has a song thats 42 mins long

  • 6 degrees of inner turbulence?

    yes..but..

    on the album its split into 6 sections..octavarium is one part, one song

    :D

  • this song is killer and always has been!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What the fuck has that have to do with anything! Just listen to the music and SHUT UP!!!!

  • unreal song!!!

  • one of my favorit DT songs!

  • I'll tell you who.

    Dream Theater and Metallica. Haha

    I know what you mean. I like some longer songs if they are really epic, but other than that songs should stay 6 minutes and below.

  • have you heard Rhapsody's song "garoyles, angels of darkness"?

    that song is 19 minutes long.

    (to 37dyl)

  • This is a must. Such a GREAT SONG.

  • This is probably on my top ten list. Which is GOOD.

  • a true classic, not just one of the best metal songs but one of the best songs ever, period

  • thats not metal its progresive rock but i do agree it is one of the greateast

  • Mehh. Atco though? Didnt know that, that was Panteras label back when, suppose they had a good heap o talent back then....

  • dream theater is the shit!

  • rofl i always thought it was "clouds roll by and i LOATH them" i feel dumb ROCK JUICE FOR LIFE (see Dream Theatre, Rock Juice)

  • BEST SONG EVER

  • Amazing song

  • very goood

    song

  • ahhhhhhh...sweet sweet memories. drop me a line, boys.

  • the quality of this band equals with iron maidens legent

  • more better...

  • Why is the ending cut off?

    You got to let it end not just cut it off there.

    I understand it's a long intrumental, but it's worth listening to.

    Sorry, I'm a very picky person when it comes to peopleneding a song video,

    Not just youwho's done it, not just blaming you, not at all XD

    it just kinda bugs me.

    But it's good though, song is great =D

  • Actually the song actually ends RIGHT there.

    The song is about death and how's it is untimely and unpredictable.

    I find it very suitable to the song, although with any other song I would agree that the song ending like that is a suckie ending.

  • That song really ends like that.

  • I love this song but what the hell is it about?

  • I always fancied it as being prepared to die. That's my opinion though. Different people might tell you different things.

  • That intro really catches the listener's attention, I think..

  • Yeah, it's a great intro. The keyboards are really what make it.

  • I agree; the intro is awesome. The keyboards are what really makes it.

  • they argue abt genres to make themselves feel smart. its rather sad when this song is so nice.

  • stop arguing about sub-genres and just enjoy the music

  • Meh, the ending doesn't work as well as I Want You.

    The Beatles' song repeats the coda over and over until the abrupt ending. Here, they keep altering the main form adding instruments, so the outro doesn't get repetitive, so the sudden ending is deus-ex-machinaly awkward

  • Great song, I wish he would sing like this now

  • best.ending.ever.

  • i love dream theater but the only thing that i dislike about this song is the first part without any words anyways good video 5/5

  • what... you mean the good part?

  • but the first part is so AwEsOmE!!!!!!!

  • Wtf??? A Metallica vs Megadeth on a f*** DT song??? Jesus this rivality is stupid lol

  • You are all comments.

  • Theres just METAL the rest is a type of Metal but it's still Metal

    so shut the fuck up and enjoy the fucking damn song dammit

  • Typical Metallica-fan comment.

  • how the fuck is that a Metallica-fan commemt

    it's a fucking METAL HEAD comment

  • ok ok here it gose  deviding again look at first there was only HEAVY METAL all metal fall underthis. then devide all you wish. remwember this do not sit and asy what is what to a muscians work some is soft and some harder. it all about feel. in the 35 years ive played bass led me to a record deal with Metal Blade all to watch it crumble to a death of a lead guitar. untill yoru signed learn from all you hear dont banter on. go get signed then talk

  • My band is signed to Earache. Quit preaching, bud.

  • this is good dude

    its such a shock that underrated Hard rock bands dont make it

  • This world is spinning around me,

    This world is spinning without me.

  • I remember jamming to this song when Images and Words came out when I was 10 years old! Classic!

  • I know this might sound sacriligous to some...but DAMN they sound alot like Helloween.

  • this song is epic...one of my all time favorites.

  • Im learning this song on piano for a friend, definitely need help with the piano solo at 5:29

    Still a great song!! =D

  • awesome song will last 4ever

  • ignorant

  • Wow kid, you can't be serious... There are HUNDREDS of metal subgenres. Dream Theater IS Progressive Metal, a derivative of Progressive Rock and Metal.

    Are you REALLY that close-minded? What about Thrash metal, you gonna tell us that doesn't exist either? Power, Glam, Groove,Death, Black, Grind? Hahaha, grow a brain.

  • first of all almost all of those ones u said fit into the category of HEAVY METAL this is more rock ish by my opinion

  • There are THOUSANDS of subgenres, kid. It's not as black & white as "heavy metal" and "rock"... No offense but, how old are you?

    Bands like Exodus and Testament are Thrash metal, because a label as general as "heavy metal" doesn't suit their sound well enough. Black Sabbath is heavy metal, and they sound NOTHING like Thrash. A band like Deicide is considered Death metal because of its strong occult and sacrilegious undertones. And Deicide sounds NOTHING like either Testament or Black Sabbath

  • There is no such thing as 'heavy metal' Because what metal isn't heavy?

    That's like saying "Boy that is a huge giant!"

    There's power metal, progressive metal, symphonic metal, electronic metal, technical metal, gothic metal, stoner metal, sludge metal, slam metal, drone metal, death metal, melodeath metal, technical death metal, brutal death metal, all those death metals only replace 'death' with 'black', grind metal, thrash metal, traditional metal,speed metal, etc, etc, etc.

  • omg what does it take to shut u up for christ's sake i personaly belive that the only metal is regular metal and heavy metal and that all other "sub categories" eventualy fall into these 2 catigories thats my opinion now stfu and get on with ur damn life

  • i agree. i absolutely HATE it when people argue about what "sub-genre" it is.

  • PROG METAL :D

    Otherwise known as Win.

  • idiot

  • Lol, another Guns&Roses fan tries to listen to something serious o-o

  • Awesome Song only just got into Prog Metal but loving it. DT !!!!!!!!

  • check out Mastodon's new album Crack the Skye.

    Doesn't sound like DT but it is pretty prog sounding

  • Definatley a headphones album. Not much my style but worth a couple listens for sure

  • This is them. If you ask me this is DT period. Yes all their stuff is good but this album and particularly this song defines them atleast in my mind to be DT. Well not this song but Under A Glass Moon.

  • Mastodons new album is great stuff. I love the new Dream Theater one though. Both bands are the best in prog metal today in my opinion :D

  • what genre is this?

  • Progressive metal.

    You like?

  • hell yeah this is amazing mike portnoy is like my hero now

  • DT is great, always

  • ahhhhhh :) dream theater is good.

  • whats the best dreath theater album, thinking of buyin one but dunno which to gwt me into them more... i only know the the band because of rock band and guitar hero sadly

  • All of their albums are good, but I'd get Images And Words, Scenes From A Memory, or Black Clouds And Silver Linings.

  • images and words is a great one to start with imo...awake is too

  • it really depends on what kind of music/bands you listen to. once you get a DT album or two, you'll want all of the other ones.

    I started at Scenes From a Memory, and now DT is my favorite band...

    I'd say Scenes From a Memory, Images and Words, or Black Clouds & Silver Linings to start.

    Also, their live CDs are top notch for the most part. Score and Live at Budokan are both amazing.

  • k thx

  • i started with octavarium, but my favorite is scenes from a memory. it depends on your music style, because DT has a really diverse discography.

  • John Petrucci is the bomb

  • why would you bitch about metallica and megadeth on a dream theater video?

    i don't understand why the hell everything's always a contest. it's a matter of fucking opinion so shut your mouths. you just look like a stupid cunt arguing about it on youtube. keep your opinion to your damn self.

  • this is dream theater...so shut the fuck up about FUCKING METALLICA AND MEGADETH! THIS IS FUCKING DREAM THEATER!!! AND THEY ROCK!

  • dream theater best band ever bloody pure talented ppl in one band all brilliant at wot they do

  • everyone shut the fuck up..

  • y the fuck is everyone talkin about metalica and megadeth while listenin to dream theater?

  • Retards, please, stop talking about Metallica and Megadeth. The people watching this video could not give a shit!

  • ...

  • P.S. This is a Dream Theater song dammit, quit talking abou tother bands.

  • are you stupid people?

    quit bitching about megadeth and Metallica when youre listening to dream theatre.

  • Metallica will always be metallica. They still sell out stadiums and are at all of the major festivals just about every year. Every metal band has been influenced by them in some way or another. You may not like them, but you should respect the contribution that they have made

  • Iron Maiden=not influenced by Metallica, in fact i do believe it's the other way around . . .

  • yeah thats definatly true

  • metallica= briliante

    jonas brother= bullshit

    =)

  • have you even heard death magnetic? any ways, great song this is

  • don't be surprised if metallica starts touring with linkin park.

  • To be honest, I also know this song from Guitar Hero, sadly.. But I just love this song.. Wether it´s from Guitar Hero or not..

  • saying you love metallica is like saying you listen to linkin park or jonas brothers, it's sad actually, no wonder james newsted left.

  • speaksense. metallica is a different genre than linkin park/jonas brothers

  • doesn't mean they can't be commercial, and switched from thrash/heavy metal to hard rock, pop rock.

  • :L good song :D

  • poo

  • this is one of the songs I never get tired of listening to
