Masterpiece, Masterpiece, Masterpiece. I think today was the hundredth time I've listened to this work of musical art from start to finish. It's a whirlwind of emotions and feelings. Thank you very much Green Carnation.
I remember reading this the first time I heard this song many years ago. I can't help but FEEL every minute. This is the epitome of inspired music and the beauty humanity can make out of tragedy.
A vision, a call In times before my fall In life before I became I dreamt I was insane I saw the unseen I heard the unheard I rode the sky above the earth I felt the breeze of the world I walked along I should have retrieved What was real as a merry blue sky Was long gone within of me Crimson tide Wave of lost time Scenario of a velvet blue sky I dreamt about day But I lived in the night I looked and I saw In my dream I was free Red turned blue White became black The daylight erased the shadow of me Insanity reached Whispering voice The sky above the stars The wind below the moon The light created shadows The dark beyond the eyes I sat before myself I looked above below Doves and birds, grass and trees Where was all I used to see? Why am I not What I used to be? I embrace My living self I see the unseen I hear the unheard I learned the secret But not before I learned Night divide day, day erase night Light of day, day of darkness That's the beauty of the mind They are inside my head Climbing the walls Falling off the ceiling Jumping on the floor Voices and calls And on the edge of sanity I stumble and fall Through the gates of the endless halls Soldier, walk with me Through the valley of eternity In passion I see Am I the one only the mirror sees? Through the valley of eternity Am I the one only the mirror sees? A distant call for me I am lost within my memory Lost in the maze The secret place that no one's ever seen I am lost within my memory The secret place that no one's ever seen Silent cries of despair Through the valley of eternity What sanity remains Within this fragile, twisted mind I am all alone Me, myself, and I Echoes pound my head Shapeless forms everywhere I think, therefore I am You are a fantasy Made by me I dream this world When I end, the world will end with me I am everything You are me Sleep my child to never be I fell asleep, to sweet lullaby A sleep in which I had a dream In this dream I conceived a perfect plan That would change the face of mankind For it was my dream To create a perfect world From this cold imperfect world And all the answers were inside my mind And I was unafraid The dream was so enticing Light of day, day of darkness The soul of an angel Will live forever The love of the innocent Will last forever A moments passion I hear a desperate cry I weep for the weak I pray for the strong But now I see it fate And I'm lying here alone Through Crimson eye And shattered lie Behold the sacrifice Of innocent life There`s blood on the bended knee The light paint a shadow on me Will I forsake you Or will I forsaken be? I left my body Come meet me in my dreams It`s been so long Would you know me? I see the unseen I heard the unheard I learned the secret But not before I learned Time stands still, but I wonder Who is watching you Who is watching me Will I forsake you Or will I forsaken me I am so lost but still I am so free As a traveller I seek hospitality As a wanderer I seek immortality As a journey through insanity I seek divine comparity Funeral Symphony Behind me, a dark shaping mass I turn and face, the face of deception A face without the warmth Of dignity and grace In Twilight atmosphere A silent seductive call Is summoning me To my new world A brave new world Where right is wrong And justice is gone I fell asleep, to sweet lullaby A sleep in which I had a dream In this dream I conceived a perfect plan That would change the face of mankind For it was my dream To create a perfect world From this cold imperfect world And all the answers were inside my mind And I was unafraid The dream was so enticing In this dream I conceived the perfect plan I sit here alone, so cold Left in the dark, to feel Pity my soul What is left to say? What is left to see? Where did I fail? Watch me and my new desire I am emptier than ever But I feel complete I conceil myself Until night falls I am who I am I just want to be I hear a voice Who could it be? Is there anybody else here with me? Why do you torture me? Won't you leave me be? Am I whom I should be? For all that you are lies only within of me Out of reach, out of sight I feel strange and lost Can you lead me right? It's too dark for me to see Capture of soul Won`t you please forgive me? Forgive me... I heard the tales Of the secret way That tears are replacements For what has been taken away From us and the lost Still, all I see is burning fields Still, all I hear is dying screams Am I who I should be? For all that you are Lies only within me I am the future I am the past I am what you wish for The god you wish to be I am the voice Behind the silent scream I am the dark And the light you'll never see I am the blood That makes your soul free I am pure I am unclean It takes one to be a god It takes one to feel lonely It takes two to outlast me It takes two to feel complete It takes a moon to light the stars It takes a light to see the dark Insanity reached Whispering voice The sky above the stars The wind below the moon The light created shadows The dark beyond the eyes I sat before myself I looked above below
What a condescending comment towards women, it's like prog music is too complex to "conventional" women to understand. Come on dude! this is not Ligeti and is not that if someone likes this song has a superior understanding or taste in music whatsoever!!
I’m sorry but i still think to this date this is one of the best mixed albums of all time its pure gold that snare and guitar sound is fucking flawless
7 years ago i discovered this as a 19 year old fresh off being betrayed by most of my friends and my first love. Sure, it was all back then but i remember discovering that i needed to just lose myself somewhere. I used to go back home in 1 hour long bus rides and i discovered this song back then. What a journey life has been. I'm halfway across the world, with someone who loves me back, I play metal with my boys in the weekend and enjoy video games as I am struggling to finish a masters degree. To everyone who discovereed this song, i know this is an underrated masterpiece that most of the world will not get to listen to. But we are here. We are the chosen ones. We will be here till the end of time to express how we feel about this journey. This music journey that is still byfar uncontested in how detailed and involved it can make a listener. I envision fighting some alien tyrant saving the people i love when I listen to this.
Man I remember writing an email to Tchort back in the days to tell him how this album marked me. He actually composed this in memory of his lost child. He answered so gently. So rare. It will always remain one of my favourites no matter what. There's everything in it. Sadness, anger, fight, hope.
@@0innerself0 Thanks for this important and enlightening information by which the song is much more comprehensible and even much easier to appreciate. 🙏🏼
We've just lost our unborn baby at the 7th week of pregnancy... I would never have thought that this song would be for my life after all these years when I first listened to it.. I guess we'll be just...fine...
This song is full of killer bits but I think the solo at 41:58 truly shines above all. It's got that raw emotion making that guitar just scream for two minutes. That last note is just pure goosebumps.
fantastic music.. I discovered this so, so long ago, and at the time i remember feeling like it was like the peak of what music should be, I'd always save listening to the whole thing for only special occasions and in many ways still nothing tops the adventure that it felt like to listen to this for the first time, I wish I could again!
14:12 starts a killer section that leads into that monster riff at 16:21 then slides into those time change at 17:01just to hit a mighty riff at 18:00 ...and so on and so on!!! What a great song!!!!
Honestly, I would say the years surrounding 2001 were some of the best for most styles of metal. I have struggled to find anything good from any genres related to metal since shortly thereafter.
As for me, the golden era in music lasted from 1995 (Paradise Lost - Draconian times) to 2002 (Agalloch - The mantle). Over half of Top 100 albums of all times at my private list are from this period. And GC - LoD DoD is my Top 2 album, after In the Woods... - Omnio.

Tool is absolute garbage. Don't compare to Opeth and Green Carnation
+Joy Light Indeed. This album helped me so much through hard times and still does. I remember I emailed Tchort years ago to tell him that and he replied very nicely. The loss of his daughter had been a great inspiration for him. In my top 5 all-time albums, forever, no contest. It just sums up life in its whole... so sad and yet so hopeful, I have no words for it.
41:56 that solo brings so much joy, tears and whatever good things you can imagine. I'm feeling a little depressed after being fired from a job that I really loved, and this solo is one of the things that are helping me to carry on. Hope to see Green Carnation live one day, you guys are my safe place.
it takes one too b a God it takes one too feel lonely it takes two too outlast me it takes two to feel complete it takes a moon to light the stars it takes a light to see the dark
Just saw this performed live in its entirety in Atlanta at ProgPower USA. Hard to believe, but they might have actually improved on the original....and it's already a masterpiece.
"I fell asleep to sweet lullaby, a sleep in which I had a dream. In this dream I conceived a perfect plan that would change the face of mankind. For it was my dream to create a perfect world from this cold imperfect world. And all the answers were inside my mind, and I was unafriad, the dream was so enticing. In this dream I conceived a perfect plan." Man, I feel that... One minute of music starting at 31:38... hits me hard every time. Wow... this is such an amazing pivot point in thjs song's flow. Just wow...
yeah i am very supprised at the elements and different sounds and styles all together..there is a riff or tune for every mood one could have on this cd. good compilation/work. found myself listening to it over and over again. makes good background music to fallout 4 too :P
Doğu Yücel'in "Varolmayanlar" adlı romanında da bahsettiği inanılmaz bir albüm. Baştan sona tam bir müzik ziyafeti.. Seneler olmuş hala daha açıp açıp üst üste 2-3 kere dinlerim... Brilliant!
That bass man! Soothing af. With the children in the background, and the angelic vocals.... Stumbled here unexpectedly and stayed on... Green Carnation \m/
Truly a timeless masterpiece of heavy and very dark but not negatively so progressive rock. Over an hour long and never boring. The very personal lyrics will take you in and not let go and more so if you can relate. There’s anguish in these lyrics. They deal with the minds different levels of personal consciousness from reality to imagination. His dreams mingle with fiction in order to escape a pain and darkness he feels. Very personal to the writer, a secret place that no one can see. Also his dreams to make the world a better place. He must release he can only contribute to this. It seems he does? His own personal subconscious seeming to border on insanity at times? Music is a very personal and healthy way to deal with emotions. This surely seems to be what he is doing? They never topped this masterpiece. A release as such is a bands ultimate artistic expression. One that defines a band.
The album was composed, written and arranged by founding member Terje Vik Schei (a.k.a. Tchort). It is composed of a single 60-minute track and was largely inspired by the death of Tchort's daughter and dedicated to his son, Damien Aleksander, whose baby voice appears a few moments in the song.
Only 800 views ??? C'mon people, you don't like good music ? This is absolutely amazing, 1 hour of pure musical joy. Congratulations to this band, it deserves to be more popular. I don't think there's many musicians than can make such a masterpiece.
Green Carnation - Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness (Letra em PTBR) Luz do Dia, Dia da Escuridão Uma visão, um chamado Horas antes de minha queda Numa vida antes de eu vir a ser Eu sonhei que eu era insano Eu vi o invisível Eu ouvi o inédito Eu cavalguei o céu acima da terra Eu senti a brisa do mundo Eu caminhava Eu deveria ter recuperado O que era real, como um céu azul alegre Foi há muito tempo dentro de mim Maré carmesim Uma onda de tempo perdido Cenário de um céu azul aveludado Sonhei com o dia Mas vivi na noite Eu olhei e vi Que no meu sonho eu era livre Vermelho voltou a ser azul Branco tornou-se preto A luz do dia apagou a minha sombra Insanidade alcançada Voz sussurrando O céu acima das estrelas O vento abaixo da lua A luz criou sombras A escuridão além dos olhos Sentei-me diante de mim mesmo E me olhei de cima abaixo Pombas e passaros, grama e árvores Onde está tudo o que eu costumava ver? Por que eu não sou O que costumava ser? Eu abraço A minha parte viva Eu vejo o invisível Eu ouço o inédito Ensinei sobre o segredo Mas não antes de aprender A noite divide o dia, o dia apaga a noite Luz do dia, dia da escuridão Eles estão na minha mente Escalando as paredes Caindo do teto Saltando no chão Vozes e chamados Na beira da sanidade Eu tropeço e caio Nos portões dos corredores infinitos... Soldado , caminhe comigo Através do vale da eternidade Na paixão eu vejo Sou o único que apenas o espelho vê? Através do vale da eternidade Sou o único que apenas o espelho vê? Uma chamada distante para mim Estou perdido em minha memória Perdido no labirinto O lugar secreto que ninguém nunca viu Estou perdido em minha memória O lugar secreto que ninguém nunca viu Gritos silenciosos de desespero Através do vale da eternidade O que resta de sanidade Dentro deste frágil e torcido espírito Estou sozinho Eu e eu, comigo mesmo Ecos golpeiam minha mente Formas feias em todos os lugares Eu penso, logo existo Você é uma fantasia Feita por mim Eu sonho que esse mundo Quando eu terminar, o mundo irá acabar comigo Eu sou tudo, Você é eu Durma, minha criança, para nunca existir... Adormeci, ao som de uma doce canção de ninar Um sono em que eu tive um sonho E neste sonho Eu concebi o plano perfeito Que iria mudar a face da humanidade Pois era o meu sonho Para criar um mundo perfeito A partir deste frio e imperfeito mundo E todas as respostas estavam dentro da minha mente E eu não tive medo O sonho foi tão atraente Luz do dia, dia da Escuridão A alma de um anjo Viverá para sempre O amor do inocente Irá durar para sempre Uma paixão momentânea Eu ouço um choro desesperado Eu choro pelo fraco Eu rezo pelo forte Mas agora vejo o destino E eu estou aqui deitado sozinho Através de olhos de carmesim E uma mentira despedaçada Eu observo o sacrifício Da vida inocente Há sangue no joelho dobrado A luz pinta uma sombra em mim Irei abandoná-lo? Ou serei eu o abandonado? Deixei meu corpo Venha me encontrar em meus sonhos Faz tanto tempo Você me conheceria? Eu vejo o invisível Eu ouço o inédito Ensinei sobre o segredo Mas não antes de aprender O tempo está parado, mas eu me pergunto Quem está velando por você? Quem está velando por mim? Irei abandoná-lo? Ou eu me abandonarei? Eu estou tão perdido, mas ainda estou tão livre Como um viajante Eu busco hospitalidade Como um vagabundo Eu busco imortalidade Em uma viajem através da insanidade Eu busco comparação divina Sinfonia funeral Atrás de mim, uma massa escura se formando Eu me viro e encaro a face da decepção Uma face sem o calor Da dignidade e da graça Numa atmosfera de Crepúsculo Uma chamada silenciosa e sedutora Está me convocando Ao meu novo mundo Um novo mundo valente Onde o certo é errado E a justiça se foi Adormeci, ao som de uma doce canção de ninar Um sono em que eu tive um sonho E neste sonho Eu concebi o plano perfeito Que iria mudar o rosto da humanidade Pois era o meu sonho Para criar um mundo perfeito A partir deste frio e imperfeito mundo E todas as respostas estavam dentro da minha mente E eu não tive medo O sonho foi tão atraente E neste sonho eu concebi o plano perfeito... Eu sento aqui sozinho, tão frio, Deixado na escuridão, para sentir Piedade da minha alma O que resta a dizer? O que resta a ver? Onde foi que eu errei? Olhe para mim e meu novo desejo Estou mais vazio que nunca Mas sinto-me completo Eu me escondo Até a noite cair Eu sou quem eu sou Eu só quero ser Eu ouço uma voz Quem poderia ser? Há mais alguém aqui comigo? Por que você me tortura? Você não vai me deixar em paz? Sou eu, quem eu deveria ser? Tudo o que você é está apenas dentro de mim Fora de alcance, fora da vista Eu me sinto estranho e perdido você pode me guiar corretamente? Está muito escuro para mim ver Captura da alma Você não quer, por favor, me perdoar? ... me perdoe... Escutei os contos Aprendi a Forma secreta Que a lágrima é a substituição Daquilo que foi levado embora De nós, e o que perdemos Ainda, tudo o que eu vejo são campos queimando Ainda, tudo o que ouço são gritos mortais Sou eu, quem eu deveria ser? Tudo o que você é Está apenas dentro de mim Eu sou o futuro Eu sou o passado Eu sou o que você deseja O deus que você deseja ser Eu sou a voz Por trás do grito silencioso Eu sou o escuro E a luz que você nunca vai ver Eu sou o sangue Que liberta a sua alma Eu sou puro Eu sou imundo É preciso um para ser um deus É preciso um para se sentir solitário São precisos dois para me durar mais É preciso dois para se sentir completa É preciso uma lua para iluminar as estrelas É preciso uma luz para ver no escuro Insanidade alcançada voz sussurrando O céu , acima das estrelas O vento abaixo da lua A luz criou sombras A escuridão além dos olhos Sentei-me diante de mim mesmo E me olhei de cima abaixo
My English exercise told me about this song. It was written: A rock band called Green Carnation made a one hour and seven seconds song called Light of Day, Day of Darkness. This was the only track on their album. LITERALLY, I THOUGHT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, BUT EXISTS!
Could I outplay any of them in vocals, guitar, bass or drums? Yes With no Doubt. the message is want I am most interested in. It's not a clear message but I do enjoy the mystery. If we're fully to understand the music then we must understand why it's made.
"The album was composed, written and arranged by founding member Terje Vik Schei (a.k.a. Tchort). It is composed of a single 60-minute track and was largely inspired by the death of Tchort's daughter and dedicated to his son, Damien Aleksander, whose baby voice appears a few moments in the song."
this is such a masterpiece itself...what a human boulder it takes you to be to live with it and dedicate such a masterpiece to such heart and soul-crushing life's punch :(
Masterpiece, Masterpiece, Masterpiece. I think today was the hundredth time I've listened to this work of musical art from start to finish. It's a whirlwind of emotions and feelings. Thank you very much Green Carnation.
I remember reading this the first time I heard this song many years ago. I can't help but FEEL every minute. This is the epitome of inspired music and the beauty humanity can make out of tragedy.
0:00 - Light of Day, Day of Darkness
now that's what i call a riddle!
No riddle, one song :)
Really? ja ja ja
the most unncessary time stamp in history of RUclips?
@@artivism4068 lol!
"hey guys, can i put one song on?"
"Sure, it´s your turn anyways"
"thanks, you better take a good seat"
"why?"
"you´ll see"
A vision, a call
In times before my fall
In life before I became
I dreamt I was insane
I saw the unseen
I heard the unheard
I rode the sky above the earth
I felt the breeze of the world
I walked along
I should have retrieved
What was real as a merry blue sky
Was long gone within of me
Crimson tide
Wave of lost time
Scenario of a velvet blue sky
I dreamt about day
But I lived in the night
I looked and I saw
In my dream I was free
Red turned blue
White became black
The daylight erased the shadow of me
Insanity reached
Whispering voice
The sky above the stars
The wind below the moon
The light created shadows
The dark beyond the eyes
I sat before myself
I looked above below
Doves and birds, grass and trees
Where was all I used to see?
Why am I not
What I used to be?
I embrace
My living self
I see the unseen
I hear the unheard
I learned the secret
But not before I learned
Night divide day, day erase night
Light of day, day of darkness
That's the beauty of the mind
They are inside my head
Climbing the walls
Falling off the ceiling
Jumping on the floor
Voices and calls
And on the edge of sanity
I stumble and fall
Through the gates of the endless halls
Soldier, walk with me
Through the valley of eternity
In passion I see
Am I the one only the mirror sees?
Through the valley of eternity
Am I the one only the mirror sees?
A distant call for me
I am lost within my memory
Lost in the maze
The secret place that no one's ever seen
I am lost within my memory
The secret place that no one's ever seen
Silent cries of despair
Through the valley of eternity
What sanity remains
Within this fragile, twisted mind
I am all alone
Me, myself, and I
Echoes pound my head
Shapeless forms everywhere
I think, therefore I am
You are a fantasy
Made by me
I dream this world
When I end, the world will end with me
I am everything
You are me
Sleep my child to never be
I fell asleep, to sweet lullaby
A sleep in which I had a dream
In this dream
I conceived a perfect plan
That would change the face of mankind
For it was my dream
To create a perfect world
From this cold imperfect world
And all the answers were inside my mind
And I was unafraid
The dream was so enticing
Light of day, day of darkness
The soul of an angel
Will live forever
The love of the innocent
Will last forever
A moments passion
I hear a desperate cry
I weep for the weak
I pray for the strong
But now I see it fate
And I'm lying here alone
Through Crimson eye
And shattered lie
Behold the sacrifice
Of innocent life
There`s blood on the bended knee
The light paint a shadow on me
Will I forsake you
Or will I forsaken be?
I left my body
Come meet me in my dreams
It`s been so long
Would you know me?
I see the unseen
I heard the unheard
I learned the secret
But not before I learned
Time stands still, but I wonder
Who is watching you
Who is watching me
Will I forsake you
Or will I forsaken me
I am so lost but still I am so free
As a traveller
I seek hospitality
As a wanderer
I seek immortality
As a journey through insanity
I seek divine comparity
Funeral Symphony
Behind me, a dark shaping mass
I turn and face, the face of deception
A face without the warmth
Of dignity and grace
In Twilight atmosphere
A silent seductive call
Is summoning me
To my new world
A brave new world
Where right is wrong
And justice is gone
I fell asleep, to sweet lullaby
A sleep in which I had a dream
In this dream
I conceived a perfect plan
That would change the face of mankind
For it was my dream
To create a perfect world
From this cold imperfect world
And all the answers were inside my mind
And I was unafraid
The dream was so enticing
In this dream I conceived the perfect plan
I sit here alone, so cold
Left in the dark, to feel
Pity my soul
What is left to say?
What is left to see?
Where did I fail?
Watch me and my new desire
I am emptier than ever
But I feel complete
I conceil myself
Until night falls
I am who I am
I just want to be
I hear a voice
Who could it be?
Is there anybody else here with me?
Why do you torture me?
Won't you leave me be?
Am I whom I should be?
For all that you are lies only within of me
Out of reach, out of sight
I feel strange and lost
Can you lead me right?
It's too dark for me to see
Capture of soul
Won`t you please forgive me?
Forgive me...
I heard the tales
Of the secret way
That tears are replacements
For what has been taken away
From us and the lost
Still, all I see is burning fields
Still, all I hear is dying screams
Am I who I should be?
For all that you are
Lies only within me
I am the future
I am the past
I am what you wish for
The god you wish to be
I am the voice
Behind the silent scream
I am the dark
And the light you'll never see
I am the blood
That makes your soul free
I am pure
I am unclean
It takes one to be a god
It takes one to feel lonely
It takes two to outlast me
It takes two to feel complete
It takes a moon to light the stars
It takes a light to see the dark
Insanity reached
Whispering voice
The sky above the stars
The wind below the moon
The light created shadows
The dark beyond the eyes
I sat before myself
I looked above below
How can this comment ONLY have 2 likes?!?! WTF internet?!?!
thanks man..
Thanks for the lyrics
You're a hero, my dude.Thanks a lot for the lyrics!
thank you dude
Been 11 years. Still remains an enigma. A beautiful haunting piece I can never forget till death
I believe it’s actually much older than that. 😁 just looked it up. Released November 2001.
Played this for my at the time girl friend. Now she's my wife, and she understands magnificent music.
u are lucky dude. Things go well now after 6 years? 😁
she's dead
Why hadn't I done the same thing before the wedding?..
What a condescending comment towards women, it's like prog music is too complex to "conventional" women to understand. Come on dude! this is not Ligeti and is not that if someone likes this song has a superior understanding or taste in music whatsoever!!
@@AS-jb4my we'll be celebrating 18 years next May! Cheers!
My favorite song on the album is "light of day, day of darkness"
By far the best song.
😂
I really miss Green Carnation... Anathema... Paradise Lost...My Dying Bride...the '90 s period!
I forgot Sentenced!!!
Yes!!!
I don't know about Sentenced, but the others are still active.
THEY ARE BACK BABY!!
90s golden age of gothic doom metal. also listened Amorphis, Tiamat, My Dying Bride, Lake Of Tears, Memento Mori
@@awaken77 Oh man, I almost forgot about Amorphis (Am Universum, Tuonela, Tales from the Thousand Lakes)
I’m sorry but i still think to this date this is one of the best mixed albums of all time its pure gold that snare and guitar sound is fucking flawless
you might be right here
Not only one the greatest metal musical productions ever created, but deserves attention as one the most monumental pieces of music to be composed.
7 years ago i discovered this as a 19 year old fresh off being betrayed by most of my friends and my first love. Sure, it was all back then but i remember discovering that i needed to just lose myself somewhere. I used to go back home in 1 hour long bus rides and i discovered this song back then. What a journey life has been.

It will always remain one of my favourites no matter what. There's everything in it. Sadness, anger, fight, hope.
I heard this for the first time in 2001 when it was released. I was 13 or 14 at the time.
@@0innerself0 Thanks for this important and enlightening information by which the song is much more comprehensible and even much easier to appreciate. 🙏🏼
Yes, but have you tried listening to Human Fortress's album "Defenders of the Crown"? So catchy!
We've just lost our unborn baby at the 7th week of pregnancy...
I would never have thought that this song would be for my life after all these years when I first listened to it..
I guess we'll be just...fine...
This song is full of killer bits but I think the solo at 41:58 truly shines above all. It's got that raw emotion making that guitar just scream for two minutes. That last note is just pure goosebumps.
thanks, totally agree here!
15:40 to 16:20 is so beautiful. One of my all time favorite musical passages. Just pure bliss.
Masterpiece in every sense of the word the solo at 42:00 is incredible pure musical perfection
Pink Floyd are the only peers in this group of solo skill. Maybe Adam Jones.
this is very Floyd-inspired part
The solo at 42:00 feels like it's the "Comfortably Numb" of metal.
This is one of my favorite songs of all times. It touches all my feelings. A true masterpiece of sound.
I truly don’t believe this will ever stop being my favorite song.
"Your song just finished? Mine is still on the intro."
fantastic music.. I discovered this so, so long ago, and at the time i remember feeling like it was like the peak of what music should be, I'd always save listening to the whole thing for only special occasions and in many ways still nothing tops the adventure that it felt like to listen to this for the first time, I wish I could again!
4am....listen to the same song twice before i go to sleep
14:12 starts a killer section that leads into that monster riff at 16:21 then slides into those time change at 17:01just to hit a mighty riff at 18:00 ...and so on and so on!!! What a great song!!!!
Moments of brilliance and an overall consistent sound, but it outstays its welcome. The last 30 minutes felt aimless after the great opening.
One of the greatest songs ever made.
With Lateralus and Blackwater Park being released in the same year as this masterpiece 2001 may be the finest year ever for progressive metal
Honestly, I would say the years surrounding 2001 were some of the best for most styles of metal. I have struggled to find anything good from any genres related to metal since shortly thereafter.
As for me, the golden era in music lasted from 1995 (Paradise Lost - Draconian times) to 2002 (Agalloch - The mantle). Over half of Top 100 albums of all times at my private list are from this period. And GC - LoD DoD is my Top 2 album, after In the Woods... - Omnio.
Tool is absolute garbage. Don't compare to Opeth and Green Carnation
Plus maudlin of the well bath/leaving your body map, favorites of mine
Well Tool is industrial Blackwater Park by Opeth is death metal and Im not sure what this is.
Eternal Masterpiece

I'm crying when the guitar solo starts 42:00. So emotional music
41:56 that solo brings so much joy, tears and whatever good things you can imagine. I'm feeling a little depressed after being fired from a job that I really loved, and this solo is one of the things that are helping me to carry on. Hope to see Green Carnation live one day, you guys are my safe place.
it takes one too b a God it takes one too feel lonely
it takes two too outlast me
it takes two to feel complete
it takes a moon to light the stars
it takes a light to see the dark
This song is a strengthening epicness. Vitamine of our life. Brilliant.
Top 5 best melodic progressive doom songs for me
grandissimo disco fatto da una band grandiosa...super musicisti... grazie ragazzi 💙🙏
Just saw this performed live in its entirety in Atlanta at ProgPower USA.
Hard to believe, but they might have actually improved on the original....and it's already a masterpiece.
I'm so jealous rn :(
THEY PERFORM THIS LIVE????????????????????
Yep you can find some videos on RUclips but the quality isn' t that good
Dude prog power is a badass festival!!. I had the grey experience of seeing Haken in Atlanta too.
wow i didnt expect them to have performed this live, i'm jealous as well
"I fell asleep to sweet lullaby, a sleep in which I had a dream. In this dream I conceived a perfect plan that would change the face of mankind. For it was my dream to create a perfect world from this cold imperfect world. And all the answers were inside my mind, and I was unafriad, the dream was so enticing. In this dream I conceived a perfect plan."
Man, I feel that...
One minute of music starting at 31:38... hits me hard every time. Wow... this is such an amazing pivot point in thjs song's flow. Just wow...
It is so beautiful and sad
Been 19 years since I last herd this one through
yeah i am very supprised at the elements and different sounds and styles all together..there is a riff or tune for every mood one could have on this cd. good compilation/work. found myself listening to it over and over again. makes good background music to fallout 4 too :P
محور حكايتي في هذه الكلمات كلي أيام ظلمات فليعلن كل من يريد لي ظلمات و شر و شرور و يقتلوا و تشرق أيام النعيم و النور
Story of my life really i thankful god for everything how hard to
Doğu Yücel'in "Varolmayanlar" adlı romanında da bahsettiği inanılmaz bir albüm. Baştan sona tam bir müzik ziyafeti.. Seneler olmuş hala daha açıp açıp üst üste 2-3 kere dinlerim... Brilliant!
I fall asleep to this song almost nightly it's a ritual for me.
The absolution of this video is the engagement of conversation.
So beautiful...makes me emotional every second of it.
A true Masterpiece!
15 ans et toujours autant une tuerie à l écoute !
oui!
Never a better song made in progressive metal. So many mystical melodies in this.
you are welcome
That bass man! Soothing af. With the children in the background, and the angelic vocals.... Stumbled here unexpectedly and stayed on... Green Carnation \m/
When you forget your Carnation milk for too long in the fridge, it becomes Green Carnation.
Ha
I've done it! I made it all the way through the song! IT WAS AMAZING!
Definition of the best music
A masterpiece! Simple as that ❤
Happy discovery ! I love the begining.
sorrow, rage, nostalgia and hope..
this song is a will and a prayer..
Truly a timeless masterpiece of heavy and very dark but not negatively so progressive rock. Over an hour long and never boring. The very personal lyrics will take you in and not let go and more so if you can relate. There’s anguish in these lyrics. They deal with the minds different levels of personal consciousness from reality to imagination. His dreams mingle with fiction in order to escape a pain and darkness he feels. Very personal to the writer, a secret place that no one can see. Also his dreams to make the world a better place. He must release he can only contribute to this. It seems he does? His own personal subconscious seeming to border on insanity at times? Music is a very personal and healthy way to deal with emotions. This surely seems to be what he is doing? They never topped this masterpiece. A release as such is a bands ultimate artistic expression. One that defines a band.
This one of the greatest songs ever written.
The album was composed, written and arranged by founding member Terje Vik Schei (a.k.a. Tchort). It is composed of a single 60-minute track and was largely inspired by the death of Tchort's daughter and dedicated to his son, Damien Aleksander, whose baby voice appears a few moments in the song.
Pure Genius, this track/album is a journey for the listeners !
A fantastic album !!!
42:00 ish. That riff, oh my gods, equal to Gilmour easily! Never ever tired of this song!
Who actually stayed here the whole time? Thumbs?
Wow what a song 😮
GAH THAT FUCKING GUITAR SOLO!!!! EVERY FUCKING TIME!
Yeah, I get annoyed by how aimlessly it meanders and how it ruins the flow of the album as well...
Monolith Preacher
does it suck that bad?
Art is subjective, I suppose, but I'd rather listen to Stalaggh.
The best lullaby ever made.
Only 800 views ??? C'mon people, you don't like good music ?
This is absolutely amazing, 1 hour of pure musical joy. Congratulations to this band, it deserves to be more popular. I don't think there's many musicians than can make such a masterpiece.
Well guess what? It's got 200k views now, pretty good! Just reminding you of this masterpiece haha.
Beautiful. Pleasure to listen to
I love listening to this in the morning so that it ends exacly when I'm going to the first class (usually maths) at 8:25 xD
As a mathematician I approve of this comment
+Duarte Miguel Maths...not even once! :P jk
Timeless classic
In 8 months it got to 10, 000. That's quite commendable. This album is great
A masterpiece album, which mixes metal with psychodelic/space prog rock. This is what I call "Floyd-metal"
No descryption available...DAMN RIGHT!!!
Green Carnation - Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness (Letra em PTBR)
Luz do Dia, Dia da Escuridão
Uma visão, um chamado
Horas antes de minha queda
Numa vida antes de eu vir a ser
Eu sonhei que eu era insano
Eu vi o invisível
Eu ouvi o inédito
Eu cavalguei o céu acima da terra
Eu senti a brisa do mundo
Eu caminhava
Eu deveria ter recuperado
O que era real, como um céu azul alegre
Foi há muito tempo dentro de mim
Maré carmesim
Uma onda de tempo perdido
Cenário de um céu azul aveludado
Sonhei com o dia
Mas vivi na noite
Eu olhei e vi
Que no meu sonho eu era livre
Vermelho voltou a ser azul
Branco tornou-se preto
A luz do dia apagou a minha sombra
Insanidade alcançada
Voz sussurrando
O céu acima das estrelas
O vento abaixo da lua
A luz criou sombras
A escuridão além dos olhos
Sentei-me diante de mim mesmo
E me olhei de cima abaixo
Pombas e passaros, grama e árvores
Onde está tudo o que eu costumava ver?
Por que eu não sou
O que costumava ser?
Eu abraço
A minha parte viva
Eu vejo o invisível
Eu ouço o inédito
Ensinei sobre o segredo
Mas não antes de aprender
A noite divide o dia, o dia apaga a noite
Luz do dia, dia da escuridão
Eles estão na minha mente
Escalando as paredes
Caindo do teto
Saltando no chão
Vozes e chamados
Na beira da sanidade
Eu tropeço e caio
Nos portões dos corredores infinitos...
Soldado , caminhe comigo
Através do vale da eternidade
Na paixão eu vejo
Sou o único que apenas o espelho vê?
Através do vale da eternidade
Sou o único que apenas o espelho vê?
Uma chamada distante para mim
Estou perdido em minha memória
Perdido no labirinto
O lugar secreto que ninguém nunca viu
Estou perdido em minha memória
O lugar secreto que ninguém nunca viu
Gritos silenciosos de desespero
Através do vale da eternidade
O que resta de sanidade
Dentro deste frágil e torcido espírito
Estou sozinho
Eu e eu, comigo mesmo
Ecos golpeiam minha mente
Formas feias em todos os lugares
Eu penso, logo existo
Você é uma fantasia
Feita por mim
Eu sonho que esse mundo
Quando eu terminar, o mundo irá acabar comigo
Eu sou tudo,
Você é eu
Durma, minha criança, para nunca existir...
Adormeci, ao som de uma doce canção de ninar
Um sono em que eu tive um sonho
E neste sonho
Eu concebi o plano perfeito
Que iria mudar a face da humanidade
Pois era o meu sonho
Para criar um mundo perfeito
A partir deste frio e imperfeito mundo
E todas as respostas estavam dentro da minha mente
E eu não tive medo
O sonho foi tão atraente
Luz do dia, dia da Escuridão
A alma de um anjo
Viverá para sempre
O amor do inocente
Irá durar para sempre
Uma paixão momentânea
Eu ouço um choro desesperado
Eu choro pelo fraco
Eu rezo pelo forte
Mas agora vejo o destino
E eu estou aqui deitado sozinho
Através de olhos de carmesim
E uma mentira despedaçada
Eu observo o sacrifício
Da vida inocente
Há sangue no joelho dobrado
A luz pinta uma sombra em mim
Irei abandoná-lo?
Ou serei eu o abandonado?
Deixei meu corpo
Venha me encontrar em meus sonhos
Faz tanto tempo
Você me conheceria?
Eu vejo o invisível
Eu ouço o inédito
Ensinei sobre o segredo
Mas não antes de aprender
O tempo está parado, mas eu me pergunto
Quem está velando por você?
Quem está velando por mim?
Irei abandoná-lo?
Ou eu me abandonarei?
Eu estou tão perdido, mas ainda estou tão livre
Como um viajante
Eu busco hospitalidade
Como um vagabundo
Eu busco imortalidade
Em uma viajem através da insanidade
Eu busco comparação divina
Sinfonia funeral
Atrás de mim, uma massa escura se formando
Eu me viro e encaro a face da decepção
Uma face sem o calor
Da dignidade e da graça
Numa atmosfera de Crepúsculo
Uma chamada silenciosa e sedutora
Está me convocando
Ao meu novo mundo
Um novo mundo valente
Onde o certo é errado
E a justiça se foi
Adormeci, ao som de uma doce canção de ninar
Um sono em que eu tive um sonho
E neste sonho
Eu concebi o plano perfeito
Que iria mudar o rosto da humanidade
Pois era o meu sonho
Para criar um mundo perfeito
A partir deste frio e imperfeito mundo
E todas as respostas estavam dentro da minha mente
E eu não tive medo
O sonho foi tão atraente
E neste sonho eu concebi o plano perfeito...
Eu sento aqui sozinho, tão frio,
Deixado na escuridão, para sentir
Piedade da minha alma
O que resta a dizer?
O que resta a ver?
Onde foi que eu errei?
Olhe para mim e meu novo desejo
Estou mais vazio que nunca
Mas sinto-me completo
Eu me escondo
Até a noite cair
Eu sou quem eu sou
Eu só quero ser
Eu ouço uma voz
Quem poderia ser?
Há mais alguém aqui comigo?
Por que você me tortura?
Você não vai me deixar em paz?
Sou eu, quem eu deveria ser?
Tudo o que você é está apenas dentro de mim
Fora de alcance, fora da vista
Eu me sinto estranho e perdido
você pode me guiar corretamente?
Está muito escuro para mim ver
Captura da alma
Você não quer, por favor, me perdoar?
... me perdoe...
Escutei os contos
Aprendi a Forma secreta
Que a lágrima é a substituição
Daquilo que foi levado embora
De nós, e o que perdemos
Ainda, tudo o que eu vejo são campos queimando
Ainda, tudo o que ouço são gritos mortais
Sou eu, quem eu deveria ser?
Tudo o que você é
Está apenas dentro de mim
Eu sou o futuro
Eu sou o passado
Eu sou o que você deseja
O deus que você deseja ser
Eu sou a voz
Por trás do grito silencioso
Eu sou o escuro
E a luz que você nunca vai ver
Eu sou o sangue
Que liberta a sua alma
Eu sou puro
Eu sou imundo
É preciso um para ser um deus
É preciso um para se sentir solitário
São precisos dois para me durar mais
É preciso dois para se sentir completa
É preciso uma lua para iluminar as estrelas
É preciso uma luz para ver no escuro
Insanidade alcançada
voz sussurrando
O céu , acima das estrelas
O vento abaixo da lua
A luz criou sombras
A escuridão além dos olhos
Sentei-me diante de mim mesmo
E me olhei de cima abaixo
amazingly well produced
My English exercise told me about this song.
It was written: A rock band called Green Carnation made a one hour and seven seconds song called Light of Day, Day of Darkness. This was the only track on their album.
LITERALLY, I THOUGHT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, BUT EXISTS!
Details? I think it’s pretty cool this song is more known about than I originally thought
@@wesleyscott1633 Wow! Yeah, I think it is, because my textbook had a unit about Mister Bean and about music, movies, etc.
@@fubuki908which textbook is that?
I read a review of this that said the changes in melodies were too abrupt. BULL. It's rather smooth if you ask me.
A couple parts are kind of abrupt
All metal genders in one song, absolutely perfect
yes
DO NOT TALK ABOUT MUSIC INFLUENCE....JUST SAY: GREAT
GREEN CARNATION!!!
FANTASTIC WORK(NOT ONLY THIS ONE)!!!!!
its a real and unique masterpiece.
kesinlikle!
Musical joy? As awesome as this is, I'd sooner call this soul crushing than joyous.
Unbelievable... as a big opeth and novembre fan, i wish i had met these guys earlier... full of amazing riffs, slow but aggresive melodies...
Timeless album
Great song and album but here is a suggestion for RUclips. Don’t have so many goddamn ads in the middle of the song. Wait till near the end..
40.18 is beautiful. Great song.
thumbs up if u listened to the whole thing
Several years ago, there wasn’t a lyrics video. So I made one on my first account and uploaded it four years prior to today.
This is the video, despite being on a separate channel: ruclips.net/video/csf2YWp4eMs/видео.html
27:10 41:54 51:27 Best moments in my opinion.
i might add 45¨00 too
"I sat before myself
I look above below"
I interpret this as his soul wondering out of his body
This is, in my mind, the best song ever written, and yet, I can't find anything else worth noting from Green Carnation.
So underated!
Surely the best hour long song ever? Be curious to hear any others people might think are contenders.
Not an hour but how about Edge of Sanity Crimson?
@@markpalavosvrahotes5575classic
Art.
Definitely a record duration for a single track.
I think that this whole section 40:16 - 44:18 might've been a huge inspiration for the part of the Opeth's A Fair Judgment
56:28 If someone knows what synth effect is used on this passage hook a brother up 🙏 It's killing me
tracklist
1. Green Carnation - Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness 0:00:00 -1:00:06
Could I outplay any of them in vocals, guitar, bass or drums? Yes With no Doubt.
the message is want I am most interested in. It's not a clear message but I do enjoy the mystery.
If we're fully to understand the music then we must understand why it's made.
40:15 this is for my future self
Bought the vinyl re-release of this masterpiece
A re-release :o ? You made my day !
Can someone tell me what's the piece of classical music we can hear at the end ? Thanks !!!
Damn that change at 16:21 is godlike.
Totally agrees.
excelencia.
Amazing song/album.
ultimate masterpiece
