    Most of the time when an artist is featured it's just their vocals, not their style of music, that's added. This was a perfect mix of Starset and Breaking Benjamin. I heard both styles of music in this, it wasn't just a Starset song. An absolute masterpiece in arrangement, execution, and visuals.

      Kinda helps they’ve both got a similar style, starset might sound pretty radio friendly but their guitars are down tuned as if they were a deathcore band. Really helps that arcing electricity space sound they have.

I remember I was so excited they dropped the whole first album to stream on their site before it even released and you bet I had ran through it so many times haha. Got a deluxe version that came with a shirt and they toured here with All that Remains shortly after that I went to. The band was standing by the front doors after handing out flyers for the band and Ron Dechant saw my shirt, looked like he was gonna shed a tear and just asked, "You came here for us?" And of course the answer was hell yes!

And Starset was my late best friend's favorite band; he died in 2020 to suicide, but Starset was something he never stopped talking about. He was fascinated by space.
    Them collaborating to make music... i can hardly handle it. I needed it.

    Starset is the only band for which I’ll ever buy VIP tickets more than once. The only band who has consistently, without fail, enthralled, enticed and enchanted me with their creative way with words and sounds.
    Starset’s music is an intimation and symphony of clever compositions, magnetic demonstrations and penetrating narratives.
    I carry much love for you guys 😊 so much, in fact, that I’ve dedicated one of my own creations to you because you have been my inspiration in many things.

    Just want to point out to those who don't know already. This song is originally a Downplay song off their 2011 album "Beyond the Machine". Dustin, the lead singer of Starset, was also the lead for Downplay before their end. I believe they got the rights to the song and did a re-release of "Beyond the Machine", however, "Waiting on the sky to change" is missing off the 2022 album. Bitter sweet, because the old version was a banger in its own right as well. You can still listen to the old version by Downplay on RUclips at a lower bit rate, however.

    I had the pleasure of getting a VIP ticket to see Breaking Benjamin, Seether, Starset, and Lacey Sturm live in Cincinnati on May 11th and it was an awesome experience. The best performances were when they performed songs together. Breaking Benjamin performed Breath with Dustin Bates, Diary of Jane with Shaun Morgan, and, of course, Dear Agony with Lacey Sturm. Seether had Lacey Sturm while they were on stage performing one of her songs, and Lacey Sturm even had Starset's stunning violinists perform with her. It was great to hear these two amazing bands come together in a live performance, and it's even better to hear them together in a studio performance with a new song.

    It's really interesting to see how music evolves. When I was younger, Breaking Benjamin was all about the journey we take through pain, love, and life. And now, with songs like this, it's like, we grew up. We grew from our pain. We made a decision that this isn't where we are going to stay.
    It really resonates with my life and the experiences I've had. Being stuck, so cold, and then deciding we aren't going to run towards the eye of the tornado, we are gonna walk through it instead of staying in the calm within the storm.
    It's beautiful.

    Aside from an incredible sound and a video to match, lyrically this song is amazing. For me it's like someone that can see the direction in which the world is heading, and at times it can feel overwhelming, and the situation helpless. At times it's difficult to just live life when they are so awake to the turmoil that lies ahead. They have lived this way for a long time. They then reach a turning point where they refuse to continue living angry and anxious about that which they can't change, instead choosing to live a life of faith in something bigger. A true anthem of the awakened or anyone dealing with anything that seems insurmountable.

But once those lines blur until they mesh into a carefree optimism there's no center to balance yourself onto, you lose control, the further you slip the more disoriented you become, the more you try to fill false voids and gain control over things you can't and before you know it you're left with nothing to lean on but fear.

      I also first heard of starset through neuro covering it. The songs are amazing. Ironically enough I like the neuro covers more. Might be first heared bias.
      They are worlds apart and only share text and melody. Everything else is something completely different.

    These two genius bands influence my own symphonic metal music more than any other bands.🌀💠🌟 I am so happy to see them in collaboration with each other. Starset is really moving up!

    I just heard this song on the radio today for the first time. It's really dope. I searched Google using one line from the song and it brought me here.
    This song is pretty dope. Thank you.
