  • i'm sorry, but this is just plain cheesy. like velveeta. ugh.

  • @cpoole9 Says the guy who listens to TesseracT and BTBAM. Metal and related genres are all cheesy, deal with it.

  • @cpoole9 I suggest cleaning the shit out of your ears.

  • its about time i reacquainted myself with the genius of Devin Townsend.

  • HIKING IS THE BEST THING EVER!

  • and on the 7th day,devin made music............

  • Guys.....I',m so stoned right now, I can't stop crying <=´ )

  • 4 people are clearly deaf..

  • After all the beautiful comments - no one was able discribe the the feelings, to find the words that i got in years for this song

  • When I heard the solo after 4:28 for the first time I was like, wow, the melody feels exactly like something that either Mozart or Beethoven would create. The melody is so epic that I'm curious to why he didn't make a longer piece out of it, sure the song is one of his greatest, but this part of the solo is on a completely different level. It would be interesting to hear where he got his inspiration from to make it, undoubtedly he's listened to a lot of classic music.

  • @DukeTwicep if you listened to Shitstorm and didn't know it was the same guy, then found out after posting what you just posted, boy I'd love to see the reaction on your face =D

  • @DukeTwicep Devin Townsend doesn't listen to Mozart or Beethoven, they listen to him.

  • @JustinLewiston Even being deaf, Beethoven would still listen to the shit out of Devin Townsend.

  • that song has changed me for the better

  • what changes of harmonies after... 4:00 ..It made me to float in air.

  • Best song ever written, recorded and performed. Nothing less.

  • I'd have Devin Townsend's music played at my funeral.

    Then laugh in heaven/hell/as a ghost/pigeon as they all ball their eyes out in tears to his epic music.

    Master plan. :D

  • @Xderda Would they be crying harder because it's your funeral, or because of this beautiful music? That is the question..

  • @Xderda the loudest funarel ever.. "I" will do it:)

  • Beauty, beyond words.

  • 6:48 : chills

  • Comment removed

  • Dat solo.

  • This is exactly what ive been looking for!!!

  • One of the most beautiful passage ever in metal, incredible....

  • Comment removed

  • that`s some funny sh*t , up there ..............

  • Such a talented artist Devin Townsend you are a Godsend!

  • @drew50000 I propose he change his name to Devin Godsend.

  • You don't have to like metal to like Devin Townsend. You just need to like art.

  • gogo 100.000 views !!

  • Oh cool whales I love gojira.

  • I taught him this solo

  • How will I explain to my son that he was made thanks to that song ?

  • Calling this song a masterpiece would be a terrible understatement.

  • Devin Townsend comes from the same country as Nickleback.

    You can't explain that.

  • @CyanideSovereign but also the same country as Rush...

  • @CyanideSovereign Also the same country as Bieber.

  • @snakeweirdo I'll see your Bieber and raise you Gorguts.

    Now I know you can't explain THAT!

  • @CyanideSovereign The Drover Brothers from Megadeth, this becomes more and more weird.

  • @snakeweirdo CELINE DION *shudders*

  • @CyanideSovereign Fucking Glenn Gould.

  • σε ανατριχιάζει όμως!!!το σόλο είναι διαστημικό,υπερτέλειοοοοο!!!

  • If my bathroom window opened up to that view, I'd die happy.

  • @noxert323 You want some random tourist peeking in your bathroom? :p Well all have odd fetishes I suppose.

  • @noxert323 if my bathroom window opened up to that view i would take a shit out my window.

  • holy shit..this is hella sick

  • TRUE STORY: I was listening to this album and all the sudden, a Eagle broke through my window and shit in my cereal.

  • @Liverslapper LOL

  • @Liverslapper LOL

  • When Dev played this at Tuska festival last summer, I almost shat myself. Perhaps the most favourite slow song from him. There's many excellent slow songs so it's hard to say. Almost all he does is excellent in all ways

  • Comment removed

  • @CloverfieldMonster95 Holy shit dude! No kidding or anything, but I was listening to Praise the Lowered from Deconstruction and a giant Blue Jay just perched on my windowsill and stayed for the songs entirety. Flew away as soon as it ended. I think you're on to something brother. I guess we're kindered souls; the birds and us.

  • terria is still one of my favourite albums of all time

  • "It's alright to cry" *cries*

  • The Mozart of metal \m/

  • @CrotchBlaster a-fucking-men

  • wow...I just blankly stared at my computer keyboard for 7 minutes and 35 seconds in a blissful daze. Thanks!

  • To compare Devin Townsend to other musicians is like comparing an apple with a turd. There is no comparison.

  • its all going awaaaayy nooow.....going...goooone <3

    this part really helps to relax and forget all the bs that life can throw at you :)

  • this solo is approved as very inspiring!

  • Whenever I'm stressed as fuck I sit down smoke a bong and put on some deep peace in my headphones. Works every time.

  • its a shame that this beatiful music is not exposed to a wider adience

  • Motherfucking awesome sauce.

  • To those who compare bad musicians to good ones. Phooey, and double phooey!!

  • that's what I call a masterpiece

  • Soon IN PARIS !!!

    FUCK YEAH !!

  • JUST saw this song...like less than 30 min ago.....devin ended the concert with a sick sick version of bend it like bender, and my mind if f*ing blown!

    Wow it was awesome!!

  • Where is this picture taken?

  • @strappingyoungdouche in my bathroom

  • @munkaaaa I'm coming to visit you with a good book and a fat roll of t.p. I might be a while!

  • @munkaaaa Must be a cold shitter.

  • @munkaaaa Nice view.

  • @strappingyoungdouche The mountain is Everest, the rest looks like a Shop job to me. Beautiful pic thou...

  • @strappingyoungdouche Mt. Everest.

  • @strappingyoungdouche It's "Amon Amarth"

  • I don't think there's ever going to be a successful devin townsend cover... ever

  • Oh man. I had no idea he did stuff like this. I always thought he was just a metal musician. amazing.

  • In maybe 100 oder 200 years from now, every child is going to learn in school who Devin Townsend was and is. I'm pretty sure that future teachers will name him in a row with Mozart and Beethoven.

  • Probably the most epic song of all the epic songs.

    Überzseniális cucc :D

    Életem legmeghatározóbb lemeze!

  • his music bring peace into my life, i can be having the worst day in history then listen to his music and fall into a deep day dream about the most wonderful but crazy stuff. :) his music is so amazing. where i live nobody knows of any other music but the crap they play on MTV its so anooying, they will never know what real music is. but i do and i love it.

  • If I had to choose a voice for god.. it's his.

  • Happy new year to all, This song being a way to live by, take its advice my friends.

  • listen pickelhead, if you want to chill and watch the grass grow to this lame, uninspiring melodrama, that's your waste of time... and what's a justin bieber?

  • @xavierspade666 a little upset you couldn't get your justin beiber tickets?

  • un musico impresionante sin duda revisar su discografia es una exquisitez ademas de su letraje y el arte de sus discos(digamos "TERRIA" )si si ke es un buen musico muy completo pero esa estupidez ke dice idura89 ke esta a la altura de mozart,realmente me hizo reir,creelo antes de hablar habra ke revisar 1o - discografias 2o - tu pensamientos suicidas salud-cita

  • Is there even a person that exists that doesn't like Devin?

    I personally do not think that is possible.

  • this is so at the same height as mozart:D

  • totally amazing...awsome...Devin is genius.

  • The intro is just beautiful.

  • another masterpiece by Devin

  • One of the best guitar solos EVER!

  • @LeperMessiah117 That is so true!! Simply amazing!

  • Just ... hum ... how to say ... So incredible

  • a slap in my face ! this guy is so unpredictable > love it

  • @eikumbokum cool thanks! :)

  • One of my favourites from Dev !

  • musical blowjob!

  • how dare 3 people not like this.... Deep peace is the best song i've ever heard..just F'n epic... when dtp played this as the encore at tuska, it was like freakin' heaven : DDD

  • This is the song my ex played for me when he picked me up in the Airport, on the ride back to his house. It was really relaxing after flying for the first time from Pennsylvania to Seattle, Washington. This song holds lots of meaning for me. <3

  • Thing song is an emotional hurricane mixed with pure Devy aural cocaine that sends the mind to another world. I don't know if that made any sense, but thats the first thing that came to my mind after it was fucked with this song....

  • @synths Well said man, couldn't have put it better. I love how it cycles, it's mellow but not exactly "safe". And that solo, everything Malmsteen's spent a career trying to do, only with 99% fewer notes.

    (Not knocking Malmsteen, he's fun! But in this comparison Dev *clearly* wins.)

  • Sorry, I'm new to Devin's music (Only have his Synchestra CD) Which album is this song from? It's AWESOME like the rest of his music.

  • @guitarwes04

    It's from his album titled "Terria".  I highly recommend it!

  • This song woke me up five days a week during a year. You know how awesome that is? Now is recorded in my brain with fire. I'm going to experiment this with "Shitstorm" and "Alien".

  • My favorite along with Frank Zappa.

  • @TheHeavymetalpenguin

    Funny you should say that, a couple of days ago I was like "You know, Devin Townsend is surprisingly similar to Frank Zappa in a lot of ways..."

  • @Mykerawr

    Sometimes people call him the Frank Zappa of modern music, so you both are thinking in the right direction!

  • @bblbuddy

    I've heard that before actually! He has a lot of nicknames though, the Mozart of Metal, the mad scientist of the music industry, etc. :P

  • magic song

  • mmmmm the solo reminds me of Castlevania for some reason

    So beautiful!

  • The guitar solo is way too epic for human proportions... Devy, you're awesome...

  • This is my favorite solo in history

  • im likein the dolphins in the background lol (:

  • Probably my favorite Devin Townsend song. Perfect from start to finish.

  • de meester van de metal en progrock een genie van uitzonderlijke hoogte!

    waar haalt hij het allemaal vandaan

    de mozart van onze rock eeuw

  • Sounds good on the first hearing. This guy seems to have such a loyal following that i'll have to listen more from him. Maybe i'll turn into one of you and go crazy when someone compares him to Hannah Montana :P

  • heavy devy forever!!!

  • 4:16 and on... some of the finest moments in all of music.

  • beautifully constrcuted. this is a song that enables you to relax and think of all the good times of your life so far. amazing:D

  • @invertedchords Yeah, it does. Glad I'm not the only one who noticed.

  • He sound like David Gilmour when he sings at the beginning of the song, kinda cool ^ ^

  • @PiratesFlying Wow your right man, never thought of that! Gilmour is a true man as well!

  • that solo from 4.30 onwards.....talented bastard!!!!

  • the pure geniusness of this song makes me have to pee. another great song...devin can do no wrong in my opinion.

  • @spamguy07 Worst Youtube comment I ever read. Congratulations!

  • @ozena52 I'm allowed to have an opinion; I'm also allowed to express it.

    now would you kindly...uh...go fuck yourself?

  • Fucking incredible song.

  • FUCK, guitar blows my mind. 2:50 onwards <3

  • One time I was cliff-diving off a mountain that was about 80 ft high. You had to swing on a handle bar attached to a rope in order to clear the rocks underneath you.

    When attempting them huge jump my hands slipped off the handle bar, sending me into a spinning furry. For those 5 seconds I knew I was either dead or was going to end up in a wheelchair as a paraplegic.

    Luckily, I made it far enough and cleared the rocks, I just smacked my back really bad.

  • @MikeC26GH Crazy! Glad you made it!

  • @MetalMagicStudio thanks man! not sure why i posted that though...lol

  • I love Devin Townsend, he is pure genius!!!!

  • 3:34 and on, I can't even fucking understand the pure genius being thrust into my ears.

  • TIMELESS!!!!!

  • never heard this song before..this record is a MUST GET...

    the choirs he makes out from his opera singer voice...

    he's the perfect musician...he's chaos and order at the same time..

    The alpha and the Omega

    Thank you Devin, you make difficult days flow gently with your few minutes of perfect music

  • @gordogomez3 its alright to cry,its alright to lean on any1,its alright to lie,in the bed uve made for every1,if u ever need so one<if u ever heed sum1<if u ever need me babe i will be there.. its alright to die,its alright to bleed on any1<its alright this time<its alright to learn from every1<with ever singe time u go with every single line u blow<anytime u need me man i will be there

  • @gordogomez3 well said. exactly how i feel about the man.

  • @gordogomez3 I agree with everything you say except "opera singer voice"...

    I always thought the solo section that begins at 4:29 should be performed in an opera with lyrics written to it. It's that strong.

  • fucking awesome

  • where is that trail? I want to see that myself! :)

    Devin is the man, whether its SYL or DT. He helps me to not be so numb

  • Start anywhere in the Canadian Rockies, I would suggest Lake Louise. @others... yes, worship of money is shallow, but don't think for a second that it's not important. Personally, I like nice wine in the house, traveling, and Devin's CDs. :) Find a balance.

  • i remember having an asthma attack and i just happen to ran out of inhaler it was funny I thought I was gonna die coz I was far away from home and I was all alone. But what I did I just listen to Devin townsends music in my ipod and somehow my asthma just went away. THis just show how powerful devin's music is :D thanks mr townsend for saving my life through ur music

  • Haha, great story. Excuse my dark sense of humour but it's kind of funny cause one line of this song is "it's all right to die".

  • man it's scary when that happens - i was swimming in a lake one time and got about halfway back from the middle and couldn't breathe - that weird moment of suddenly realising 'shit, this is serious now, am I actually gonna die now?'

  • One time I was fourwheeling and crashed, and everything slowed down and all i remember flying from the bike is, "well shit, im actually going to die..." it was very chill actually... Somehow I get very lucky and mangaged to stand up without a single scratch.

  • Wow really you weren't that bothered haha. As it turned out they shut off that lake because some poor kid drowned in it (it was a water filled quarry people used to hang out at in the summer)

  • Whoever compared a genius like Devin Townsend to such pathetic and meaningless so called musicians like Hannah Monatana and Rhianna are idiots! Devin is a a musical genius so I have one thing to say to all you narrow minded fools F***K OFF!!!

  • chill the hell out first then learn to read. tard

  • Alright my bad sorry.... Well yea it is sad that people listen to crap like Hannah and Rihanna and all that non sense but then again I guess Devin's music is to be appreciated by people who really know what music is all about so be blessed that you have the opportunity to hear,understand,and appreciate it.

  • @immortalsoloist +1 my friend !

  • @immortalsoloist DEVIN TOWNSEND SUCKS! ahah just kidding mr. townsend is a musical genius, his musical knowledge is just endless, hes a pure god of music thumbs up to your comment

  • Devin is the greatest. End of discussion.

  • Money and fame arent important. If that's what's important to someone, they have issues.

  • @sonerson83 jus because theyre different to you doesnt mean they have issues. but happiness is all that really matters sadly some people need money and fame to be happy

  • 4:29 -  5:50 is un fuckin real.

  • nice! he goes all mozart on our asses

  • Indeed. One of my favorite solo's overall... from Devin, or anyone else.

  • snakeeyes2222, they're comparing the fact hannah montana is a global star selling millions of albums, and a fucking musical genius live Devy goes unnoticed by the mass media...

    Also. The solo in this song is incredible.

  • One of the greatest songs ever made. Period.

  • why are you people comparing devin townsend with hanna montana and rihanna? I think those are some disturbing comparisons! come to think about it, I don't think devin townsend could be compared to any other artist, at least none that I know of. I think his music unique enough to be without comparison:)

  • una obra de arte!!! simplemente este

    hombre es un genio, que bellas atmosferas se pueden crear aaa no puedo dejar de escuchar a devin y su grupo !!!!!!!!!
