Porcupine Tree "Sleep Together" Live in Tilburg

[imagerydrums]

man, this music makes me feel so good.

[kissingyouwide]

I want to sleep with Steven

[puertoctavarican]

You know what makes me mad!!!, that I discover this band right after they had a concert in my town. But I was really glad I got to see them on "The Incident" tour.

[vangelisas90]

the best live band by far at this moment!!!

[TheAutostyle]

now this is fucking music !

[ktuli93]

The first distorted chorus made me realize the meaning of life.

[Scarpunk20]

The live version is so much more cooler then the one in the album . I love the way Colin Edwin smiles at Steven Wilson going crazy on the stage at @3;49 .My dream is to watch Porcupine Tree live .

[ionsyxtv]

Hey guys, you probably won’t pay any attention to this comment or just mark it as spam… but we’re just trying to receive some comments from experienced prog rock fans to help us improve our music. We’ve just released our first 8 min song preview (no vocals added yet), if you like porcupine tree, tool, pink floyd, pain of salvation, please go to our channel and leave a comment on the song. Any help would be much appreciated! (we are not trying to copy the sound of any of the bands mentioned)

[TheAdam159]

Real music is alive and well in the 21st Century. I thought we'd never have another Beatles or Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin or Yes or Rush ,etc, etc. But here we are with Porcupine Tree, flying the flag for great music. It's not based on image or style or which band member is sleeping with which supermodel, or falling out of nightclubs. PT is all about the (awesome) music. Long may they reign

[ingsoc3125]

Haven't gone 2 days without listening to these guys since I bought Fear of a Blank Planet back in May. Totally addicted.

[arjunparuthi]

has anyone ever noticed that Porcupine Tree has always got a genius "Light guy" out there! Insane lighting of course music is extra ordinary too!

[sokhi05]

amazin band..where have u been guyz....u guyz are best..totally addicted...

[SpeechOfreedom]

Edwin => Is that a zerg shirt?

[myung7]

@SpeechOfreedom Nope.

[HarvesterBob]

what is the effect on stevens voice during the chorus called?

[LPJAY08]

@HarvesterBob Distortion is there. Maybe something else, too.

[uchihaitachi888]

@HarvesterBob sounds like a flanger is also being used

[Kantorounet]

@HarvesterBob Reverb + delay + saturation, I think.

[drummerbryan1]

gavin plays some open-handed stuff in this one.

[pachan0769]

nice song!!!!!

[Simoun0]

Awww this songs makes me wanna kiss all time,It's just awesome

[zackatronstix]

the different between this band and all other bands is PT show a lot of expression in every song

[MasterofEtherium]

For a milisecond there, just before the chorus, Colin wasn't smiling :O

[gozeye]

i didn't taste heroin but i know how it is now...

[streetlight482]

duz colin always play fretless bass?

[willregnier]

@streetlight482 Not always but sometimes. He even plays double bass.

[explodeaphant]

I want Steven Wilson's hair.... 5:27

[Lyktwz]

Wow! Great...

Banda de San Puta...

[kmoff11]

cant believe i just now discovered these guys

[willregnier]

@kmoff11 Watch out it's really addicting! ;)

[IMZA1793]

@kmoff11 your not the only one. This band totally destroyed my top 5 artists of all time a few weeks ago.

[TheAdam159]

@kmoff11 I envy you! Wish I could hear these guys again for the first time! One of the best bands currently around

[khashayar44]

This is your way out....

[MrVince66000]

LOVE THEEEEEEEM!!!!

[goofygirly2010]

I'd sleep with Steven anytime, I mean literally! But I would consider the 'other' sleep with too! :D

[slaw88]

Wanna here a joke? lil wayne

[adrian5b]

@slaw88 I'd love to there a joke, why not

[tamaplayer100]

My favorite band in this lifetime and the next life!Porcupine Tree is REAL music imo

[tamaplayer100]

@tamaplayer100 But it more than my own opinion..thank you for Your creations/albums..This band really connects to me oh yes

[Jonnyjy]

This song is..i work in a plastic factory and i hated what i do because failed at school (dont care about nothing,i prefer to play than study and i pay.but i really dont regret).and when i go of i lissen PT and lissen sleep together is one of those songs that envolve's you in a diferent atmosphere,i mean,i cycle to home and the moment the song became more envolving i dont care what happens on my sorround,just the song and even the motion of cycle became pure motor,not mental!! Thank you PT : )

[gogolplex74]

Where are the strings?

[riff5fki]

@gogolplex74 Really? Richard Barbieri controls the synths and samplers. There are no strings.

[gogolplex74]

@riff5fki I hear them in the end of the song

if there were real strings this performance would be even more epic

[riff5fki]

@gogolplex74 Well, I don't know much about the actual recording of the song, but it is most likely Barbieri playing the sample from the album. Though they ought to to a concert with a real orchestra.

[gogolplex74]

@riff5fki on wikipedia, The personel says that there were no violin players

[riff5fki]

@gogolplex74 So, it was probably synths in the recording and live.

[gogolplex74]

@riff5fki but they really used electric violin on "What Happens Now?"

[dunmirof]

@thispagesux, Steve Wilson and Mikael Akederfelt are good friends, and Wilson helps mix and edit alot of Opeth's work, including "Heritage" which is releasing on friday

[thispagesux]

reminds me of opeth so much

[BLooDCoMPleX]

@thispagesux Guess why.

[zapakguy1991]

Is this real! :o

[am1933]

first time I heard this song on the studio version I thought it would have been perfect for a James Bond movie, I have since changed my mind - as it is far too good!!!

[SuperDemoneye]

3 people dislike this song. What is wrong with you people? Seriously!

[bluestripedtiger]

I actually got disappointed of the Fear of a Blank Planet album after watching the whole thing live first. It's just better that way, imo!

[gibbsies]

@bluestripedtiger agreed

[VadaHada69]

most badass part in all of porcupine tree's discography = 1:39

[vannss]

Así deberías meter madrecillas, no andar siguiendo las guitarras y el bajo pinchi @samuelknot

[Hypersophisication]

This is probaply the most musical band someone could ever listen to.

[DhieP9]

i just realized SW is barefooted, and he's using some kind of carpet

[lastdayinsin3]

He's always barefoot during live performances.

[TheProgRock]

@DhieP9 He always plays barefoot...:)...indoors at least:)

[M0ofi32012]

Epic! I so love the progressive sound! That drummer is phenomenal...

[Brinemusic]

No..! Way...! Synth player is totally using REASON!!! Legit!!

[trolltind01]

Never get tired of this song. It rocks like... And Gavins pedals too..

[mcgauz23]

the sound is superb!! Love when the chorus comes in and SW's vocals are distorted. Can't wit for my Anesthetize DVD to arrive in the post :)

[YoniSmadja]

2:41 raaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[bskok82]

@YoniSmadja - Yeah man, that fill was beast.

[innominekurtis2]

thumbs up if you first read "directed by ass hole" at the beginning.

[Byzancedark]

@innominekurtis2 HAHAHAHAHAHA thumbs up too XDD

[ballisticrocket]

Lucky audience. Just envy them:(

[alexAENESIDEManders]

i really really realllly want john wesley as a fixed member of the band! this setup is the best setup that we could imagine. there is not even one tuiny thing i would change about this band. and this really is the only band i can say that about

[SpeedOfSounds]

wooooootttt LA CLASSE :) la meilleur de porcupine :)

[mrproductionthird]

WTF, is this even music or what ??... i havent heard anything like this before, steve is genius sheer genius

[WyattTheGuitarist]

@mrproductionthird Yeah man... this is real music.

[mrproductionthird]

@WyattTheGuitarist indeed it is !

[MrStrudelbaker]

That drummer is a rock. A really big rock; the immovable kind.

[sebob8000]

@MrStrudelbaker He's on a click track ;)

[glorysteel]

it is me or these guys do not grow old? look a collin and steve, they're the same they were back at lightbulb sun recordings

[PennyDreadful1]

@glorysteel Fits! since Stevens favorite lyrical themes seem to be about avoidant depressed teens.

[112233mode]

which one of them is GAVIN???

[chaospustel]

@112233mode The drummer.

[112233mode]

@chaospustel lol thx :)

[hilgert555]

this and Fear give me the chills every single time I hear them

[johanot86]

Such a regular beat commencing at 0:50 - and yet NO ONE play it tighter than Gavin!!

[Dhruvlfc90]

ETHEREAL! such beauty, Every note counts in this song!

[mariusel666]

god damn gavin is fucking good...that guy can play anything

[Jonnyjy]

I dont believe in religion but this band make me think twice..

[RandomDD12]

Those 2 ppl aren't sleeping together... ^_^

[gar7ytube]

every new song i listen to by PT gives me a new emotion...

Amazing band...

[xSBxBBBdx]

it sounds waaaaaaaaaaays better than the studio version^^

[MathiasB17]

How does Richard get the orchestra sound ? it sounds awesome at 6:20, and i'd love to get the same sound.

[gothrudebar]

minute 2.43 brilliant!!! in general this song and this band is just a flawless interpretation of a wild journey of rhythms, sounds, colors, flavors, emotions, dreams, and so on...

it's like the perfect drug!!! PT fuckin' rocks!!!

[pollmeier08]

I have the Blu Ray. 192% Fucking awesome.

[rockatthemoon911]

The chorus is 1000 times better here than on the album.

[palmaenema]

pink floyd with a metal heart.....AMAZING!!!!!

[Annoyingthing92]

What guitar does steve play? i know its a prs but i dont know what type,want iot desperately!!

[WyattTheGuitarist]

@Annoyingthing92 Looks like a PRS Custom 24

[brockerhoff]

@WyattTheGuitarist 22.

[Benjammin169]

Why does Gavin switch hands on the hi-hats :S

[benjadestok]

@Benjammin169 because he likes to ghost notes with his right hand i guess, open hand tecnique

[benjadestok]

Let's sleep together ! RIGHT NOW!

omg fucking steven owns

[Franlop3z]

I would like to thank:

-Steven Wilson

-Gavin Harrison

-Richard Barbieri

-Colin Edwin

John Wesley

[BeefcakeMoney]

@Franlop3z Can't say it any better than that :)

[josteinhaugen]

@Franlop3z Ron wesley!

[Franlop3z]

@josteinhaugen isnt that a fictional character from Harry Potter?

[TheHereticMe]

I was stunned while watchin dis.. :-/

Awesomeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! \,,/

[sincityracer1]

@TheHereticMe Yes , I saw P.T. live latest oct . ! Wow ,the best live performence I did ever heard ! Clear ,bright and powerful sound , each instrument you can hear exactly,not the crunch like other livebands are doing ! Here my advice : Visit their next concert !

[jimmywacked]

freekin awesome shit- ! my GF just came-!!

[suspensiondude]

Gavin Harrison rules the skins!

[a47yxw589]

this band takes my breath away......it is nothing but amazing !!!

[alanslife1]

i feel high and im not!! this song is amazing!!

[JokerHimself]

this is INSANE! the outro...

[whitenbc]

This on Blu Ray .. :-) at home , let the neigbours enjoy this one as well ! :-) Play it loud !

[WilAnimator]

surely i'm not the only one who would love to see PT do this with a full orchestra

[AMartins92]

I love how Steve is just shoeless onstage!

[harris361]

Are the stings sampled?

[BLooDCoMPleX]

@harris361 Not the strings. The sound that goes on for the whole song is. The more electronic one.

[trolltind01]

Outstanding perf!!!

[demonof90]

loving the tool style artwork on the screen

[tambourDOM]

0 dislikes

just the way it should be

[redgalaxy24]

@tambourDOM Exactly. Because it is literally impossible to dislike this. This is musical perfection. The best live performance my ears have ever come across.

[raarlgh]

I get shivers every time i see this video.. it's so amazing.. whoever says good music is no longer made is wrong, this video is the proof!

[harmonicminorshred]

@raarlgh Amen nigga.

[girlofcolours2]

I bet, PT pitched for the title of the next Bond; Wilsons interest doing something like a filmscore is known well. Whoever decided to NOT take this track: missed the best Bond-opener ever. Whole structure, lyrics- and from 6.20 onwards you can nearly see the movie start...Absolutely perfect.

[improvesaleswithyou]

at 5.45 I think its flams on the snare with triplet bass drum in between.

Gavin is such a cool drummer, first time Ive seen him lead with the left hand, something I have been practising, has really improved my overall playing.

[Fox622003]

@improvesaleswithyou Pretty much. It's a nonuplet. The flamed snare is playing a quarter note triplet, and in between each note, there's two bass drums, making those three notes x 3.

Fox.

[nightdriver07]

Keyboard on 6:50. Simply PERFECT

[panosa73]

Can anyone figure out what Gavin does at 5:45???

[zepfan51]

@panosa73 My guess is a quad with triplet feel. 

[733quiron]

Burn my clothes..... let's sleep together, right now!!!!!! I just melt when he sings that part, aarrggh!!!!

[Restayvien]

5:45-6:47

Heavenly

[iMetropolis]

6:19 is so slick.

[MrRoamer]

AWSOME SONG!

AMAZING PERFORMANCE!

They are the greatest!

[Astrolopitekos]

very tool-ish animations :) and, yeah, awesome song D:

[warmdickweed]

@Astrolopitekos tools animations are very Porcupine Tree'ish

[AwaketoaDream]

@warmdickweed started growing out of tool actually because of bands like this. I can't stop listening to this band, not an album I don't like in their 20 year span to date, plus they have brought back the idea of true great live performances

[ryder187mac]

@AwaketoaDream Many bands have great live performances, PT is one of them ;)

[peterplays4fs]

Like if Gavin sent you here from facebook

[JoshBHC]

@peterplays4fs Gavin what?



[theruiner89]

@JoshBHC

Gavin Harrison, the drummer for Porcupine Tree.

[Posthuman2003]

Love Richards moody keys brilliant song

[josseph85]

my favourite song from Fear of a Blank Planet.

the orchestral arrangements are beyond epicness.

I'm buying this DVD next week for my birthday.

[malaguida]

I just want the next tour to come fast, so I can see this guys live again..

Freaking amazing :o

[Theillusion1able]

Epic!!

[7393210115019dodo]

I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to enjoy this song live in october in Germany! These soundscapes in the background are strange beautiful and have this mysteriously evil atmosphere. That night was just... magic!!!

[warmdickweed]

Gavin should you ever read this please tell us why you play this song with open hands :)

[condobleN]

@warmdickweed i'm pretty sure he does it because of the continuous ghost notes on the snare

[warmdickweed]

too bad he can't do the high notes firmly :(

[GiovanniAv]

Dear Lord... What a band.

[genewyss]

It's fantastic to have PT on this planet - and the clip's audio is simply great!

[jaisonbass]

Please come to the UAE!!!!!!! :D

[TheFall0uts]

Just amazing the lyrics the dark tone and wow that's spectacular sound for a live show.

[Firecrotch6979]

This song has such a dark tone to it. Very evil. I love the video in the background that they show during this song as well.

[MapacheMaldito]

víneme tres veces

[LJZN]

I cum with this song.. pretty f+cking awesome!

[sanderjm]

Incredible! Pure sonic genius.

[pimtelman]

Is there a better playing band than this?

[trouble48708]

@pimtelman no

[papapk]

@trouble48708 True

[JohnEBMcC]

Genius!
