Is there a better american rock band than Dream Theater? I don,t think so. They have it all. Great vocals, great songwriting and some of the best chops in all of music.
No, it's not deep, it's very cliche and simple. Take away the elementary singing and the song is okay. Not something to write home about. Very Very simple.
Lyrically this song is not deep, and very simple. Beats aren't deep dum dum. Also, DURRR of course if you're a fan you're going to respect their music. That's like saying if you like soft serve ice cream you'll respect dairy queen. Please when trying to respond, try sounding intelligent. At least now I know why you think this song is deep. Quite possibly the 'stupidest' comment I've ever read.
crystal york Jesus bro some songs have deep meanings to different people! Respect his (or her) interpretation of this song it isn’t your song that you wrote for yourself!
You see here Rob, there is a serious problem in this world, that problem is that there are too many stupid people. If this song, which is about as deep as a mud puddle on the sidewalk is what you find to be deep. You are just part of the problem. People are consumed with themselves and only themselves, so much to the point that they view shit like this as deep. You know what's deep? Recognizing the turmoil the world is in and how we can alleviate the problems of the world. Not selfish meaningless garbage like the lyrics of this song. That's why I criticized this comment. Time to think outside the box people.
Divine song...Divine pictures....Dream Theatre show us that they are not without inspiration !....It seems that it's on the contrary !...and after 30 years of making awsome music they keep the best for these days...and maybe again later.....A band of genius....John is a wonderful melodist...since always but here it's awsome !....Sooooooo excelent !!!!!!
honestly, when i listen to dream theater, i imagine vast landscapes of nature. specifically like im flying over huge mountains with shimmering white ice caps, against the crystal blue sky. idk why, but this video just materializes those visions. love it!
I should also say that, Musicality aside (as if), the choice of video content and editing is inspired and is so much more than a lyrical presentation. Jose has captured the mood and musicality of the composition and the resulting video belies an innate sense of timing and a feel for the subject matter which grafts sublimely onto the audio track. A masterly interpretation and more importantly, a fitting tribute to the band's musical presentation..
I absolutely agree. I was traveling for work when I started listening to this album, so visiting new places, the views from the sky, etc. all heightened my enjoyment of this song at the time, and the video captures it perfectly.
Ya había escuchado esta canción antes, pero con tu edición me has hecho llorar. Me tocaste el corazón. He estado atravesando una situación muy difícil en mi vida, pues tomé decisiones equivocadas y lo estoy pagando caro. Y como dice el tema, sí. Me he cuestionado toda la locura en la que me metí, deseé estar en lugar de otra persona, perdí el tiempo y sí, también quedé atrapado en el laberinto. Pero he vuelto a casa. El tiempo vuela y los recuerdos se desvanecerán. Y ésta es la única vida a la que pertenecemos, nuestro regalo divino. ¡Gracias por crear esto, hermano!
+HDHMD me ha pasado lo mismo hermano y leer tu comentario me identifico.. Sabes que? pongo mucho este tema.. Es hermoso..Y si la edición es muy bonita...Vamos que la vida es un regalo Divino !! Salú lml
He pasado por esta cancion miles de veces pero cuando escuho esta edicion me dan ganas de vivir y llegar a todas las metas que tengo y vivir cada aventura que se ve en el video, gran video con gran cancion, sigue haciendo videos así y Dream Theater por siempre !!!! Saludos desde chile. Ya he puesto otros cometarios en el video pero me emociona tanto que coloco cada vez que lo veo...
Hi, congratulations for winning the contest. This is such a beautiful song and you brought it to life by making such a magnificent and phenomenal video. The video truly describes this song so well. This is my favorite out of the five videos that were selected as winners. The inclusion of nature really makes this song so beautiful visually! Keep up the good work, Dream Theater all the way \m/ CHEERS
what a edit....absolutely perfect, good music, good lyrics, good edit, good solo....even when listen this song , closing eyes...makes like we are in heaven.....this is life.....and we have to accept our fate.......thanks...for the beautiful video....
Petrucci's lyrics always seem to reach my heart... I love how Jordan and Petrucci wrote this song, maybe that's why I loved the so hated The Astonishing! DT manages to make simple and perhaps cheesy songs into beautiful pieces of music that fills the soul! DT is a gift divine indeed.
Despite the fact that I dont be a videomaker or something look like this I think that this guy have made a absolutely perfect job!! I'm sure that professionals videomakers couldnt had make something better than this! Congratulations!
What do you get when you cross the most awesome song at the moment with equally awesome and spectacular footage…..this I'm blown away....floating with clouds, infact
When a musical artist makes similar sounding albums: "WHY DON'T YOU DO THINGS DIFFERENT?" When a musical artist makes different sounding albums: "WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK TO YOUR ROOTS?"
This video is something amazing....and this song of DREAM THEATER is perfect,wonderful, I can't describe how much I love it!!!! Wonderful wonderful wonderful video!!!
This is a wonderful hymn of the beauty of nature made visible in your great pictures and made hearable in a great song. Fine artsmade by nature, the Band and YOU, thanks!
Beautiful video and message. We discover our true identity in Christ. If we don't know who we are, you will get lost in the maze of life. We were given a true purpose in life, as it is our divine gift. We have Treasures in Jars of Clay! ~2 Corinthians 4:7-18~ Thank you for posting this beautiful video sis! God bless you and your family. Peace, blessings and love :) I love you in Jesus, your friend and sister in Christ, Nilda xx
Is it not more miraculous to think that this amazing piece of artistry was made by three middle age guys? Three insignificant specks of carbon vibrated some molecules and the result was something that sounds so utterly beautiful.
Este es el vídeo perfecto para esta espectacular canción ... capturaste la esencia del mensaje, y la grandiosidad del paisaje se corresponde perfectamente con la belleza de la música - me quito el sombrero ante tu trabajo !!! (gracias por incluir imágenes de los tepuyes venezolanos ...)
DEFINITELY THE BEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME! I don't care what anyone says. The video went with the song perfectly. It had a tremendous emotional impact on me. Brought a tear to my eye and shivers down my spine. Now, who are those 7 stupid motherfuckers who pressed the dislike button? How can you not like this?
This is the music! And I personally think that, if the guys from Dream Theater will ever decide to make a video for this song, well, this should definitely be the video. Many thanks to Dream Theater and also to JFL for this!
thank you so much, Dream Theater, for creating such a beautiful, & deeply moving, meaningful song... and also, thank you so much for the creator of this video ... it's really makes me ponder deeply about the meaning of (my) Life & what should I really DO from hereon ..! -from Indonesia-
Very nice! powerful song with a very moving video presentation. great quality i will probably start using this video to demo hd phone and tablet screens where i work!
Just Awesome! beautiful!!, a simply but direct message to all of us, this is the life, just one, live it, take care of it...the world is ours. Very amazing bro!
Hace tiempo una persona que aprecio mucho me dijo unas palabras que me llegaron al corazon y minutos despues vi tu video.Tan bello, tanta hermosura en pocos minutos amas la vida y me hace siempre feliz. muchas gracias ^_^
Some of us choose to live gracefully Some can get caught in the maze And lose their way home Memories will fade Time races on What will they say after you're gone? This is the life we belong to Our gift divine
In the same way that Purcell's Chaconne in Gm, Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus, Kate Bush's This Woman's Work, and Nilsson's Without You touch some trigger which never fails to overwhelm me with uncontrollable sadness, and a echoing hollow feeling at the thought of any single person's struggle against indubitable Mortality, this song offers some resolution to that grief, and instills a crescendo of hope into the listener's mind, with tinct of shaded sadness and emptiness of what will face each and every person at the very end. I have already picked this out as my funereal goodbye, simply because it ticks all my lifelong musicality boxes and leaves a sticky reminder of Man's frailty, and ultimately, a shaft of light, as Hope for those to come next.
How divinely our life is explained by DT. long live DT
That Solo OMG...
Dream Theater songs are so inspirational. The best song writers in the metal scene.
john petrucci
A genius if I ever knew one. The band really does compliment him.
+AriochStarr 👍
AriochStarr
Simply the best of all!
this song is a gift divine!
Yes it is my friend.
It was supposed to be. Wasn't it ? lol
Marvelous song. Petrucci's solo is absolutely wonderful and spectacular.
Is there a better american rock band than Dream Theater? I don,t think so. They have it all. Great vocals, great songwriting and some of the best chops in all of music.
no dream theater is not a rockband, it is Progressive Metal
James D Hill TOOL, but that’s about it.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
Right.
by far the best band in the world
another beautiful & deeply meaningful song by Dream Theater . . .
Yes
No, it's not deep, it's very cliche and simple. Take away the elementary singing and the song is okay. Not something to write home about. Very Very simple.

It's hard to find diz kind f song nw adays.
Who else knows the lyrics by heart from listening to it so much?
dutchificationer I definitely do I sing it in my head from time to time it will be played at my funeral.

The song itself is very good. I must add the video content is just awesome! Thanks! Keep up the inspiring work!
Another a divine song from a magnificent band such as Dream Theather followed by a great video.
This is the music! And I personally think that, if the guys from Dream Theater will ever decide to make a video for this song, well, this should definitely be the video. Many thanks to Dream Theater and also to JFL for this!
thank you so much, Dream Theater, for creating such a beautiful, & deeply moving, meaningful song... and also, thank you so much for the creator of this video ... it's really makes me ponder deeply about the meaning of (my) Life & what should I really DO from hereon ..!
-from Indonesia-
A beautiful film for a beautiful song! Thanks Jose!
Saw them in Feb in Wembley. this song sums up my attitude to life changing decisions I'm making at the moment.
One of really perfect ones! For the ones who tell that DT is "old" and "has lost its potential"!
Probably the best Lyrics video in the all god damned world!!!!!This video is a gift divine!!!!!
Very nice! powerful song with a very moving video presentation. great quality i will probably start using this video to demo hd phone and tablet screens where i work!

(*^_^*)
AWE-INSPIRING!!! this song and the video is freaking killing me!!! " memories will fade.. time races on... what will they say after your gone" DANG!
Great video! Congratulations for the work, it gets beatiful with the song :)
Some of us choose to live gracefully
Some can get caught in the maze
And lose their way home
Memories will fade
Time races on
What will they say after you're gone?
This is the life we belong to
Our gift divine
It was the best 7 minutes of my day - thank you!!!

Ya veo porqué este fue el vídeo ganador. ¡Excelente trabajo!
