    One of the best songs on the album, such great melodies.

  • @Leyrann

    One of the best from the album, I'd say. Even though it's hard to rate single songs because they all belong together.

      I think the best in isolation from the rest of the album is When Your Time Has Come, because it's the only one IMO that doesn't really need context to be a good song. Outside of that it's really all personal preference.

    Love the mixture between military marching music, gospel, even swing and off course prog in this record. The Astonishing has such a fresh sound, i just wish the songs were a little bit longer, imagine how great this could have evolved if the band gave the music enough time

    There was a song in a song on an album back in 1999. It is the beginning of this song that is the ending of that old song. Or so it seems.

    Brother can you hear me?
    Your life is in my hands
    I will not surrender
    Never yield to his demands
    If we stand together
    We will never fall
    Brother we're the answer to your call
    Brother can you hear me?
    You must not be afraid
    I will march beside you
    Have no fear
    Be strong
    Be brave
    We sing the song of freedom
    Our voices will resound
    Brother we will never let you down
    [Gabriel]
    On the road to revolution
    We're bound to make mistakes
    There's a price that we must pay
    For every choice we make
    Freedom is a reason
    To stand up or give in
    But someone has to lose
    And someone has to win
    Brother can you hear me?
    I am not afraid
    I will not forsake you
    I'll be strong and I'll be brave
    I sing the song of freedom
    My courage knows no bounds
    Brother now I stand on solid ground
    Brother I will never let you down
    Never let you down!

  • @MrHoweYOUdoin
    @MrHoweYOUdoin 8 лет назад +37

    Though not officially, and maybe not completely intentionally, The Astonishing is, to me, Metropolis Pt. 3. The more you look at the concept and themes, both storywise and musical, as well as some little references here and there (Overture 1928/2285 Entr'acte), the more it starts to look like a brilliant way of expressing the final part of the story: Pt. 1 as a single song, Pt. 2 as an album, and Pt. 3 as a double album! Rock on DT, you've given us something beautiful.

    • @147pablox
      @147pablox 8 лет назад +6

      +MrHoweYOUdoin Only this double album is not called "Metropolis pt 3" but "The Astonishing".. So I guess neither officially nor unofficialy that can be it..

    • @MrHoweYOUdoin
      @MrHoweYOUdoin 8 лет назад +1

      Pablo Pallares
      Haha agreed, I know it's not supposed to be Metropolis Pt. 3 by any means; I just noticed that some of the story's themes tie in to Scenes From a Memory :) I don't mean to suggest that it's supposed to be that way by any means, it just made the album more interesting to me!

    • @147pablox
      @147pablox 8 лет назад +1

      MrHoweYOUdoin Like what story's themes?.. "I admit I'm intrigued".. (lol)

    • @MrHoweYOUdoin
      @MrHoweYOUdoin 8 лет назад +4

      Pablo Pallares
      There are some basic thematic tie-ins, like the overarching theme of finding out who you are and what your destiny is, one brother betraying another, the "death, deceit, and love" themes from Metropolis, etc. Probably just the kinds of ideas Petrucci works best with but still sort of neat :) Gabriel could be seen as The Miracle and Faythe as The Sleeper, and I always think of how Metropolis Pt. 1 ends with "It (love) can only take place when the struggle between our children has ended", just as how Gabriel and Faythe's love unites the Empire and ends the conflict. "Love is the dance of eternity" and "Eternally in harmony, our lives will be astonishing again" struck me as similar. Just little things that interested me, not worth reading into all that much xD

    • @147pablox
      @147pablox 8 лет назад +2

      MrHoweYOUdoin Ok, it's a nice theory.. And also the three stories would happen in different periods of time.. Mp pt1 some treat it as if it were a reference of Romulus and Remus, so around 700 BC, then Mp pt2 in 1928 and TA in 2285.. I liked the way you connected those few but important things between the albums..

      Arhys is Nicholas who came back. Arhys also has a son and wife. This is his theme which is the last thing heard in SFAM. Daryus is Edward, come back to kill him yet again (still ultimately over jealousy).

    I must say that being a long time Chelsea F.C and Dream Theater fan I cannot resist comparing Brother Can You Hear Me to Chelsea F.C's anthem, "Blue is the Colour"! Very, very similar chords and melody!....
    This album gets 5 bags of popcorn from me. Have listened 3 times now and can safely say that almost every non-robotic song has touched me profoundly. I genuinely think this was the right pivot for Dream Theater, and the chord progressions and melodies are so interesting to listen to.
    I think I'll be spinning this album more than any other this year.

      per me questo album è freddo e in linea con le ultime uscite del dopo Portnoy. Insomma, se si fa il paragone con Scenes From a memory ne esce distrutto.

      Soggusti. Io li ascolto dal 1989, sono andato a quasi tutti i loro concerti partendo dal primo al Rolling di Milano nel 1993, quindi un po' li conosco. E Astonishing per me e' uno dei migliori se non quasi il migliore dell'intera loro discografia.

    Out of the entire album this is the only song I don't fully care for, but I do understand its place and why they stylized it the way they did. Sounds very much like a national anthem.

    Nope this song wont work for me.. Its too typical for rock opera in a pop rock tunes. No fancy odd meter changes

    Wow I can't believe so many people think this is one of the best from the album. I think it's one of the worst songs they've ever released.
