Dream Theater - Learning to Live

[pineapplepeanuts]

The outro is fantastic indeed. To bad its cut off lol

[blaflz]

My favourite part of this masterpiece is the outro. What an effect.

[xGshikamaru]

8:40 - 9:35 both Moore and Petrucci make me shiver that’s truly my favorite part of the album, brilliant dialogue between guitar and keyboard. Can listen that song over and over, just waiting for that particular moment

[juankia73]

Breaking All Illusions its a copy and paste of this...SHAME ON YOU DT!

[shortdrummer991]

@juankia73 they did the same thing with pull me under and on the backs of angels. *tsk tsk*

[midgetdrunkman]

@juankia73 Why shame on them? The two songs are similar enough, but different. They didn't rip off a song by another band to make this classic, unlike Led Zeppelin. They used their own material. And in my opinion, Breaking All Illusions is a re-imagining of this amazing song.

[kamikaze90watermelon]

@juankia73 beats songs like never enough and peruvian skies which do the same thing to other bands (namely muse and metallica) and those were written years ago. Nothing new.

[stanley777able]

this a fuckin jenius music

[MIKEPORTNOYING]

Gay song. About AIDS. Check out the following masterpieces for the pinnacle of Dream Theater:

• Prophets Of War

• Repentance

• Just Let Me Breathe

• Burning My Soul

• The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun

• Glasgow Kiss

[MultiAnalRapist]

@MIKEPORTNOYING glasgow kiss is From JP's solo album so it's hardly DT is it?

[ilmedico100]

@MIKEPORTNOYING you are gay not the song

and am not checking out your list

[IdolWhip]

@MIKEPORTNOYING Your face is gay. Your a big bag of douche.

[SuperLorando]

lagu nya cukup menjiwa banget galau menjdi hilang

[SuperLorando]

video neh cukup bagus dan cukup menarik 

[PETESEYESBLUE]

I posted a year bak and only a couple thumbs down now only 18 not bad yet why as i stated when i look upon the moon and see the past i hold on for her again as i know she is out their Remember in 92 cruising in my Cutlass Supreme and the beauty of her beside me then drivin alone until a new then alone,Don't have the car do miss it and those pretty bombs.Now i live on the lake and lookout to see a full moon with this beauty goin on again She will show me,myself and us soon as I wait for sleep

[PETESEYESBLUE]

I bought this tape in 92 Lost my wife in 94 Met a new lady in 97 lost her in 2002,The beginning of waiting for sleep and this masterpiece that follows always to this day in 2012 and still without.I just do not get why this epic that evolves around lost and never regain it again makes me just want to weep.It is this classic that sets a man from a moron.I love this whole album The Way the heart sounds makes all the difference.From learning to live.This is my burial tune at 48 40 years to go luvher

[MrIdontknowanyname]

Orgasm starts at 6:58

[Azmoq]

@MrIdontknowanyname Bitch please, 7:50

[MlKEPORNTOY]

The drum triggers are gay. Check out Falling Into Infinity and Systematic Chaos for good Dream Theater albums.

[Shotgunmerc]

@MlKEPORNTOY I liked Falling Into Infinity... :( y u trollin that album

[LMTR14]

@Shotgunmerc that album sucks monkeyfuck

[Shotgunmerc]

@LMTR14 It's just them trying to be more accessible to everyone. Lines In The Sand is one of my favorite DT songs

[LMTR14]

@MlKEPORNTOY I don't even know what drum triggers are, I can't hear anything odd. this album is a fucking masterpiece

[Musicmansamuel]

This is the best song on the album Images and Words

[644productions]

@Musicmansamuel Metropolis my friend....metropolis

[jmc88dc]

@644productions Actually the album is "Images and Words".

[romski3737]

@jmc88dc he knows that, hes saying that metropolis is the best song on the album, i think :P

[KaBaSpLoOSh]

the lyrics in this song are actually by Myung lol

[Sephi013]

Best Intro ever!

[skippyfez]

wow for once a band from guitar hero had more than 1 good song lol this stuff is awsome >.<

[dommy748]

the best musicians in the world united in one band. Dream Theater. I'm their biggest fan. listened to all the songs, bought all the albums. just good music performed by great musicians. this IS music

[kokopiko]

@dommy748the

best musicians excluding that Canadian mourner!!

[OneTakeJesus]

@kokopiko How many singers do you know that can sing like LaBrie? A certain few MAYBE. Are you saying he isn't a good musician? He is one of the most talented, and versatile

[MrRampage85]

Wait...WHAT! WHY!...why does it end on another awesome build up?!?! it leaves you wanting M0:00R!

[fifa12superior12345]

@MrRampage85 he he

[ozricstormbringer]

but kinda means the hole song goes by and the drummer never plays the same thing 2x lol i never took up the ability to read sheet music so im really not sure lol

[ozricstormbringer]

i believe its in the song metropolis.

[SolidOblivion]

17 people should learn to die

[abelrc]

for sure images and words (1992) and awake released in 1994 are both the best dream theater s album ever released .

[greenfiero1986]

10:06-10:59 just something about it is so addictive and you don't want it to ever end.

[SteveTheWonderLlama]

Check out my keyboard solo cover from this song on my channel :{D

[digitalfreak123]

5:30 - 7:08 Best build up EVER!!!

[Peterwh1]

i think the bit from 1:08 to 2:55 has to one of the best bits. everything is so perfect, the lyrics, bass, guitar and keyboard all fit together so well to one of what i think is one of the most beautiful bits in music history. first time i've been on this song on youtube and its so good to see people appreciate this song as much as i do.

[faplulz]

I DON'T LISTEN TO MUSIC LIKE THIS.. BUT THIS SONG IS GIVING SEX TO MY EARS.

[lordkoto14]

I love how everyone is posting their favorite parts, and how every single part is trully amazing, this song can be torn down to so many epic moments, feelings and emotions, yet create a complete experience that at the end of the song you just want to play it again and again. Without a doubt a magnificent masterpiece and one of the BEST songs not only of DT, but of Metal in general.. TOO BAD IT'S CUT X_X

[Peterwh1]

@lordkoto14 i couldn't agree more.

[dvnupldr]

6:15 to 6:58.....my most heavenliest DT moment ever. <3 still unsurpassed & thats how it'll always remain

[Planetcrafter]

A mystical masterpiece... Images and Words will always be my favorite DT album.

[Violet03007]

The minute 10:00 is the best I've ever heard in my life.

[MarcosPaccanaro]

The part between 5:30 and 7:40 almost makes me cry.. probably the most bad ass 2 minutes I've have already heard... Always imagine myself flying.. and when the last scream comes, I open my arms in the sky, very close to the sun, on the clouds...meh, I don't know, I just feel great. That is what DT always bring to me! :) They took my feet (and mind) of the ground!

[necustan69]

The point of this song is " learning to listen to good music"

[kozino69]

part between 1:10 and 2:40 is pure passion. center of song

[MasterOfTrapos]

ahhh... long time without hearing this song

[AvidWave]

... am I the only one who heard the VERY obvious triggering fail at :31 ???

[Gaarnek1994]

@AvidWave nope

[SteveTheWonderLlama]

@AvidWave I don't hear anything

[a7xtr00metalhead]

learning to suck cock*

[rapjass]

@a7xtr00metalhead is what you do?

[SondraSpeakes]

Just discovered Dream Theater a year ago... so wonderful to be this surprised and excited about their music.  Some of the most talented musicians I have ever had the pleasure!!!

[elmertube]

@SondraSpeakes Welcome to the Dream then my friend :)

[Thebadsanta1]

@SondraSpeakes Welcome bro make sure u listen to other DT songs.

[SondraSpeakes]

@Thebadsanta1

I am immersed!  Loving all of it! Thanks and I'm not a bro :-)

[Kimijun78]

@SondraSpeakes I am glad you made it on time :) I always wonder how sad my life would have been up until now if a friend of mine did not make me discover them 13 years ago...:/

[SondraSpeakes]

@Kimijun78

For sure! I will always be grateful for the intro!



[theminboss]

I think Dream Theater is a pretty cool guy, eh hits F#5 and doesn't afraid of anything.

[TauntedSymbol]

When the music stopped at 10:59 I felt like dying.

[greenfiero1986]

@TauntedSymbol towards the end of the song the music gets so addictive and has this crazy effect on you.

[Wargoat6]

It's good, but it's like a sampler of 20 different songs. 

[StephMetaller666]

great outro

[boomboombeast]

7:02 WOAH WOAH WHOOOOAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

[SCarletIronyMusic]

Like that high F#

[xnic0491x]

my favorite tune...and one of my favorites records ever

[Hanno1901]

i was astounded to recognize wait for sleep theme from 8:12 and knowing little about DT i searched this song and found out it comes next to Wait for sleep in the track list;

[Areufrikkinkidding]

I would love to comment on this song, but my mind is too blown to find the words.

[1999paokaras]

the song is A.W.E.S.O.M.E.,but the image of the album S.U.C.K.S.

[MrBlitzkrieg420]

my girl and i have sex to this music. (=

[Vickt0r7]

This song while i drive on the nights through a highway and seeing the city far from me

[CuriousComposer]

Every time I listen to this song, I try to tap my foot to the beat. I never can due to Dream Theater's insane time signatures and downbeats >.> Seriously, try it. It's really hard.

[CuriousComposer]

@CuriousComposer Just did my research-- It starts at 15/8, then goes to 14/8, then goes to 7/8, then to 10/4, then to 9/4. Geez.

[phoenixLK27]

@CuriousComposer Wow. Wtf hahaha that's insane. I can barely play in one odd time signature :/

[DeathMetalSavior]

@CuriousComposer Impossible... I lost within the first 10 seconds of drumming xc

[MrBea1412]

The Best



[MlKEPORNTOY]

55% of the population of Rhode Island imploded after hearing this.

[renoldpartogi]

@MlKEPORNTOY

again: Porn-toy is speaking

watch out for the pervert is coming, guys

[karmaggeddom]

In my opionion best Dream Theater song



[helloakayan]

@karmaggeddom There is no best song. How many bands implement this level of philosophy with immaculate musicianship?

[OliTheBest121]

@helloakayan its an opinion, by him... its his favorite

[tehatemachine]

@karmaggeddom oh it's up there, I like Take the time.

[Shamordi]

@karmaggeddom no dream theater song is the best. ALL the songs are the best!

[ilmedico13]

@karmaggeddom the best song of DT is Erotomania, which actually is not a song but a piece of music

[gomozo80]

@karmaggeddom Octavarium !!!! :K :K :K :Q_____

[digitalfreak123]

@karmaggeddom Best Dream Theater song? Its the best song EVER

[ilmedico100]

@karmaggeddom best one is Erotomania

[alibout]

Hey guys look it is Spiderman:O

[sonykroket]

I love intros like this

Bit 80s but evolved

[meryuin]

@sonykroket yeah. it's the 90s ;)

[Regginyaga]

Soulja boy is better

[pfcguzzo]

@Regginyaga Are you retarded?

[SASPython]

@Regginyaga Obvious troll is obvious. That or you're just plain fucking stupid.

[Regginyaga]

@SASPython I am plain fucking stupid.

[SASPython]

@Regginyaga oh well if you agree with me then I can't offend you thanks a lot man. In that case, it's fine then I can't judge you for that, besides it is your opinion, thats what makes us all different in this world, so I respect your comment!

[Regginyaga]

@SASPython So If I WAS trolling you wouldn't respect me?

If I was trolling wouldn't that imply that I actually do like dream theater?

Does that mean you have a lower opinion of trolls then soulja boy fans?

What if I am a soulja boy fan but I am still deliberately trying to upset people?

Does that make me a troll or plain fucking stupid?

Is trolling the same thing as lying?

[SASPython]

@Regginyaga is the answer red? I'll lock in red!

[Mikkael365]

@Regginyaga

no.

trolling + stupidity = same thing.

same thing, different form

[TheJasepetrucci]

@Regginyaga hhahahahahahaha

[SkogFe]

Genial

[ForteVictory]

WHAAAAAAAA!!!!

[IReallyAmIronMan]

DUN DUN duhduhduhduh dundundundun dooo do doo dooo do doo dooo do doo da na na!

[spineshivers]

God damn it, "old" music is good!

[tetrahedrontri]

14 people started bleeding from their vocal chords from trying to hit the high note at 7:04

[MartaProg]

This is so awesome! One of my favourite DT songs.

Love the new album too \m/

[angelhof17]

ooo ooo ooa ooa oaa aaa aaa aaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[MrsSTARLESS1974]

MY GODNESS, YOUR CHANNEL IST JUST FANTASTIC !! GOD BLESS YOY THENK YOU ONE 100 TIMES:)))

[JPSS97]

James Labrie hits an F#

"....And I jizzed - in - my ponts"

[Youkko]

A classic! Really love this song, the lyrics are wonderful!! And the instrumental... Oh god!

[beresf6436]

Arguably their best song

[ltcapone]

Images and Words is Dream Theater's Greatest Hits. I have all their albums but if I were to rank my top 10 songs from DT every song from Images and Words would be in that list. I started listening to DT in the early 90s...and I'm still playing Images and Words all the time today.

[kalorette]

CLASSIC

"Learning to speak " ..by John Myung

[MrDinilango]

@thomaslejon thats funny man LOL!

[joun1nkakash1]

@thomaslejon

"There's a bass solo in a song called Metropolis, where I do a bass solo." - John Myung

[VideoMask93]

@joun1nkakash1 Not only did he learn speech, but also the art of restating what you say to create redundancy.

[JaysWalkThrus]

@VideoMask93 Oh, you must be talking about that bass solo in Metropolis where he did a bass solo XD

[VideoMask93]

@JaysWalkThrus Yeah, where he was using tapping on the bass by tapping the fretboard with his fingers to make a "tapping" effect.

[OliTheBest121]

@thomaslejon and this song was written by Myung to if you didnt know ;)

[felphero]

@thomaslejon LAUGHING - MY - FUCKING - ASS - OFF!!!!!!

[gixmar]

check the best new band WORK OF ART THE GREAT FALL

[sondalehrer]

Hallo U.,

very good music, hope you enjoy the music!

M.

[FrisoLustig]

"One of their top 10 songs also." What other songs complement this top 10? Actually I find it quite difficult with DT. Here is my top 10: 1) Octovarium 2) In the presence of the enemy 3) Count of Tuscany 4) Pull me Under 5) A nightmare to remember 6) Panic attack 7) Shattered Fortress 8) Finally Free 9) In the name of God 10) Misunderstood I am certain that I forget many more songs.....:)

[seminolefanboy802]

The. Best. Song. Ever. Made.

By ANY heavy metal band.

But hey, that's just my opinion. I love this whole song, but especially from about 8:28 on.

[Easleytee]

This music possesses no spleen, backbone or soul.

Hollow and frightfully superficial.

People will stick anything in their ears.

[kklocket2]

@Easleytee Hahaha, that was a good one.

[MrFredric666]

@Easleytee i got a laugh out of that good one man

[utentefree]

@Easleytee

AHAAHAHAHAHAHAAH THAT'S THE WORST THING YOU COULD SAY!

Really are you a hater or what? you must be proud of you now because you made clear that you have no brain and that's difficult to accomplish...

[CuriousComposer]

@Easleytee You are a regular comedic genius.

[mjc71189]

is Moore available? i bet if he rejoined along with Portnoy we would get a masterpiece

[nikitofin]

@mjc71189 portnoy hates moore

[MrMerafta]

@nikitofin He hates him? You know why?

[JCesarDT]

This song is God transmuted into music.

[ddensu]

@JCesarDT Nice comment hahaha.

[Attila891]

WOOOO WOOO wOOO

[LucciSan91]

7:09 - 7:41

[CBScares]

John Myung needs to write more songs!

[vera881]

@CBScares Breaking All Illusions. From A Dramatic Turn of Events.

[CBScares]

@vera881 I've heard it, and it's the best song on that album ;D Thanks

[TalonsOfFire]

The lyrics are about AIDs right?

[MorganDrake88]

Best DT song ever. Maybe BEST SONG EVER of all bands in all times and worlds and possible parallel universes.

[initabath]

9:20  \m/d-_-b\m/

[MorganDrake88]

@initabath So fucking right.

[nikitofin]

best album by far, THIS is dream theater

[ItamarZ13]

Learning to Break All Illusions

[ebeaver15]

The bass in this song is so dreamy and awesome

[nikolas99t]

i would marry this song if i could.

[FtKiVeR]

Thumbs up if you miss the Ibanez JPM...

[JCdrummer33]

Thumbs up if you are still listening to this in 2011!

[bozzioisgod44]

@JCdrummer33 Damn. I'm in 1455.

[stevenocea]

@JCdrummer33 this is their best album..!!!

[fixajob1]

@JCdrummer33 sad to see this shitty comment on a cool song. guess dream theater has 15 year old fans as well

[vonToast]

@JCdrummer33 listening to it right now :P
