Idk my friends who are also DT fans bring this song up fairly often as one of their faves. I'd categorize both this and Beneath The Surface as some of their classic rock ballads.
When I was 13, I just listened to SDOIT, and I was amazed with this masterpiece. Thanks to you I learned English and love composing and listening to prog music. Thank you so much Dream Theater.
ah, reminds me of highschool, shorthaired JP, low speed internet, no streaming, i had to order pirated dvds since no one was selling or i didn't know where to find the original one. -love from indonesia-
This song got my wife into Dream Theater. We used to cry how beautiful it is. Now we have a 3 month old daughter and just go "Holy shit! You think she'll learn to walk and talk on time?! She's not much of a huger! What if.... Crap!".
The Lyrics : He seemed no different from the rest Just a healthy normal boy His mama always did her best And he was daddy's pride and joy He learned to walk and talk on time But never cared much to be held And steadily he would decline Into his solitary shell As a boy he was considered somewhat odd Kept to himself most of the time He would daydream in and out of his own world But in every other way he was fine He's a Monday morning lunatic Disturbed from time to time Lost within himself in his solitary shell A temporary catatonic madman on occasion When will he break out of his solitary shell He struggled to get through his day He was helplessly behind He poured himself onto the page Writing for hours at a time As a man he was a danger to himself Fearful and sad most of the time He was drifting in and out of sanity But in every other way he was fine He's a Monday morning lunatic Disturbed from time to time Lost within himself in his solitary shell A momentary maniac with casual delusions When will he be let out of his solitary shell
3:36 Jordan more or less gets to define the beat here. And since the song changes tone in that moment anyway, he takes the opportunity to try to bring it down to a more reasonable tempo.
I identify with this song so hard. This has always been one of my favorites. I feel like it describes me. I feel like Dream Theater is reaching out to me and people like me, and giving all of us who are struggling with mental health issues, a big hug with their music and lyrics ❤
My favorite album from DT. I remember back in college at the time ( 2001) , looking through their website, when someday on News says: “ For immediate release” it was the set list and the title track of SDOIT. Flew back in time! Still remember. Best memories around .
This kind of song is what I miss from DT. I mean DT always puts a few easy listening song in every album. In recent albums, there is no easy listening song at all.
I love this song so much. Six Degrees as a whole was super important to me as I came to terms with my own mental illness, but this is the piece that feels like it's about me. I love it and I will cry-sing every time they play it til I die.

o unico ruim é que o portnoy acelera a musica ao vivo, quem tem uma boa percepçao de andamento vai notar q ta mais rapido q no cd, porem qd começa a sessao instrumental do final da musica ele desacelera pra velocidade original do cd kkk e os caras da banda ta nem ai, vao juntos com o portnoy acelerado
@@gessicacom_g bom o fato é que ele vai pelo feeling total. com certeza nao usam metronomo ao vivo, como Oficina G3 e Angra usam. sinceramente, isso me encomoda um pouco
I’ll always appreciate this band for their wide range of styles they can pull off. They don’t just keep to one style and that’s what keeps people interested. Always a favorite
Me encanta esta canción. Realmente transmite una sensación de paz, sobre todo cuando la escuchas sólo, con los ojos cerrados y pensando cómo se sentirá un niño con autismo. La melodía da a pensar que es internamente feliz.
We autistics certainly do try and craft a safe space and rich inner life that suits us in our own way...but sometimes it is difficult to have it all be compatible with how society works. Families, jobs, etc...we can't escape the fact that we have to sometimes live and survive in everyone elses' world in order to have the means to sustain our own little world with our hobbies and interests. An "impenetrable" solitary shell would mean starvation and death. I need money, and I don't like scamming people, so I have to work, and thus I have to reach my arms out of the shell from time to time through small holes. And always worrying that they hurt my hand when I reach through, but moreso in an interpersonal and emotional sense than physical; I do construction, so I'm hardened to cuts and bruises from work; I'm far more sensitive to social rejection than physical pain. I strongly relate to this song.
Was about to fall into a dark place again and this was next on my recommendations, gave it a listen and my mood has been elevated quite a bit. I've been a long-time fan of the band and I can't express how amazing they are to me without being late for work... which I should probably get ready for now that I think about it.
Portnoy blows us away with his creative beats and cool nuances. Mangini blows us away with his utter domination and power pocket. Seriously listen to some of the new love album where mangini finally has a great drum sound. He sounds amazing. With Portnoy gone mangini can’t fully fill what Portnoy does. But if Portnoy came back we’d miss the things mangini can do that Portnoy can’t. Both have their ups and downs🤷🏼
Dream theater 🎥 you still got it all the guitar riffs drum solos good vocals 👌 and so much more in Dream theater 🎥 world 🌎 so keep on rocking ✨ those cool songs 🎵 for the audience and what to see you all perform good rock music 🎶 and metal is still getting stronger in New York city ✨ and many more city's and countries to visit so practice with all your heart and might
@@thomazmaf ele não erra tempo, mas acelera a música. somente na sessão instrumental no final que ele toca no andamento normal do CD. alias, ele fazia isso c/ muita frequência quando estava no dream theater, nos shows. preciso 100% no metrônomo o tempo todo, somente em estúdio na hora de gravar os álbuns do DT. comentei isso com o Lufe (ex-batera do Oficina G3) numa live dele, e ele confirmou isso.
@@thomazmaf não falei q ele erra tempo, mas acelera a musica ao vivo (toca mais rapido q no cd) coloca a musica nas duas versoes, de estudio e essa ao vivo, pra tocar lado a lado, se vc der o play nas duas ao mesmo tempo vc vai ver q essa ao vivo esta mais acelerada.
Is SDOIT a concept album? My friend has just started showing me some DT and I'm loving what I've heard so far, though, this song really seems to be inspired by Peter Gabriel's Solsbury Hill, wasn't sure if it was inspired by that?
And in the end, the boy just was a girl. At least that is my story, but the song helped me so much coping with my transition. Dream Theater always knew how to reach one's heart,
Miss Portnoy era, sorry guys it was amazing, why on earth you guys decide to kill such an amazing group so eventually. No doubts, full respect to Mike Mangini, good master of its gild, so technically advanced, but the unity was lost, shared 25 years, you were unstoppable, best ever. Sorry if I am wrong, but you and we at all, should carry each other. It was about starting new chapter, but as time showed for me, the main soul was lost :( Wish the best
Live at Budokan. One of the greatest concerts ever recorded.
SCORE
One of the best, due to the mind blowing Instrumedley
@@linuslittlefield2112 I love Score, but the Orchestra was kind of sloppy
Score better.
I think Budokan is their greatest concert instrumentally, but it wasn't one of James LaBrie's best days. His voice sounds much stronger on SCORE.
Probably their best moment, great songs, different styles, great shows, improvs, they had everything by that time.
Live at Budokan...a master piece of a live shows.
I miss the good old days. Wish I had a time machine and go back...
Dream theater without Mike Portnoy is not the Dream theater we knew and loved
You’re right, it’s now the Mike Mangini Dream Theater we know and love
'Cool thanks
the greatest looking John Petrucci,, and I'm a straight guy lol,, I mean, that hairdo, double neck guitar, much better than his "bear" look today lol
DT reunion with PORTNOY please
I want a dream theater rock band game with keyboards
One of my most favorite DT songs of all time! Love the vibe, sadly this song is barely recognized
Idk my friends who are also DT fans bring this song up fairly often as one of their faves. I'd categorize both this and Beneath The Surface as some of their classic rock ballads.
I feel like this song is about me.
Ikr I love it so much
same here. this and About to crash (reprise) are my top 2 favorite DT songs
@Zedrik Allen OMG 🙄
When I was 13, I just listened to SDOIT, and I was amazed with this masterpiece.
Thanks to you I learned English and love composing and listening to prog music.
Thank you so much Dream Theater.
This is my personal favorite DT era. I'm not bashing the others, they're all great, but this is the one that speaks to me the most.
I love 2000-2008
Their last several albums have all been crap. Pretty much everything since Portnoy left.
@@MAGAMAN sorry you feel that way. You're missing out.

Jajajajajaja
Good one!!!!
Jajajajajajajaja
Tempo is slightly too fast.
😭😭😭😭 love this song since i was 13yo, now i’m 28 and DT always in my top 1 and only favorite band 😇
Same!! Cheers from Portugal
Practically the same myself. Listened at 14. Now I'm 28.
podo mas
Same here dude 🤘
Haha, same! Since i was 15, now I'm 31 😱😊
The Lyrics :
He seemed no different from the rest
Just a healthy normal boy
His mama always did her best
And he was daddy's pride and joy
He learned to walk and talk on time
But never cared much to be held
And steadily he would decline
Into his solitary shell
As a boy he was considered somewhat odd
Kept to himself most of the time
He would daydream in and out of his own world
But in every other way he was fine
He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself in his solitary shell
A temporary catatonic madman on occasion
When will he break out of his solitary shell
He struggled to get through his day
He was helplessly behind
He poured himself onto the page
Writing for hours at a time
As a man he was a danger to himself
Fearful and sad most of the time
He was drifting in and out of sanity
But in every other way he was fine
He's a Monday morning lunatic
Disturbed from time to time
Lost within himself in his solitary shell
A momentary maniac with casual delusions
When will he be let out of his solitary shell
Thanks ❤
3:36 Jordan more or less gets to define the beat here. And since the song changes tone in that moment anyway, he takes the opportunity to try to bring it down to a more reasonable tempo.
I don’t know why but I really love the times when Jordan still uses his Kurzweil. Miss the lead sound that comes from that keyboard

Jp is much more handsome and masculine now in my opinion .
This Petrucci still mortal, not yet shedding his body to become immortal 😂😂😂
I miss MP on drums 😭
Belated Birthday JP..
One of my fav song from DT stay safe guys
You can watch him on sons of apollo or winery dogs or flying colors or metal alligeance, etc.
@@asabovesobelow2299 I mean jamming with DT..
He is coming back to DT. Mike Mangini is fired.
Basil rai ™ me either, bro!
@@krioni86sa hope so....
Lately, DT uploading their old videos with MP. Is this a sign? 😅
I was just thinking the same thing plus he's on John's new solo album.
And if you pay attention to MP collaborations with several musicians he's using DT logo at his drum kick 😅
No. Portnoy quit DT. Then he dissed them constantly. He's never coming back. Get used to it.
Well if that right, it's a good news😁
MP left ten years ago. Get over it.
#1 Prog band all time.
I always thought to my self that JP forgot the notes for the acoustic solo and just improvised on top of it, still magnificent...
Always thought that too. The blank notes strum up and down sounds frustrated.
Apparently he had problems with the double-neck guitar and had to switch right in time for the solo.
My favorite album from DT. I remember back in college at the time ( 2001) , looking through their website, when someday on News says: “ For immediate release” it was the set list and the title track of SDOIT. Flew back in time! Still remember. Best memories around .
4:43 JP's tribute to Steve Morse solo on "Endless Waves". Cool.
Welcome back Portnoy??? 😉😁
This kind of song is what I miss from DT. I mean DT always puts a few easy listening song in every album. In recent albums, there is no easy listening song at all.
This song is eerily close to my actual life. Thank you DT, love you guys.
Why Budokan has a Blu-Ray release but Score has never been treated with the HD remaster?
The cameras used for Score didn´t record at 1080p?
When i saw the crowd with suits in a Prog Rock Show, i was like: "WTF?"
Hahaha..
Guys... we might need to borrow John Myung for this music battle between Davie504 and Herman Li.... Herman has John's bass... must shredddddddd
Dream Theater ha sido siempre muy importante en mi vida, verlos siempre es realmente satisfactorio.
Ustedes son la definición perfecta de talento...😎
🤘🏼¡¡¡VIVA DREAM THEADER!!!🤘🏼
Live at Budokan (2004) is probably one of their best concerts.
_Many years pass by, and Live at Budokan still remains as DT best live recording!._ 🤘🏼🎸🥁🎹🎶
This video's audio is remastered and remixed, I've compared with the DVD version. They're different.
Nah,i think that scenes from new york is their best by far,then marquee and after budokan,it's still a kickass concert
I love this song so much. Six Degrees as a whole was super important to me as I came to terms with my own mental illness, but this is the piece that feels like it's about me. I love it and I will cry-sing every time they play it til I die.

yeah
I respect anyone who likes prog AND likes U2. They're a great band who gets a lot of undeserved hate

2:13... Totally "And You And I" by Yes.
The song itself is somewhere in between And You And I and Solsbury Hill. This means a lot.

Meu sonho o Portnoy voltar pro DT algum dia, the best
Now your dream come true.
ele voltou !
Ainda vou no show desses cara uma dia! Alguém BR ai? curte aqui! valeu Dream Theater
tbm quero ir um dia viu...deve ser cabuloso d+...
Vale a pena cada centavo!
Show ano passado em Curitiba foi absurdo, os caras mantém o alto nível sempre.
Fui em Porto Alegre!! Os caras tocam em um nível absurdo!!!! Vale muito a pena ir !!!

For those who don't know, Budokan was made for sumo wrestling matches. If I'm correct, as a result, it's got this cool circular thing going on.

Missing Mike Portnoy
Miss Portnoy era, sorry guys it was amazing, why on earth you guys decide to kill such an amazing group so eventually.
No doubts, full respect to Mike Mangini, good master of its gild, so technically advanced,
but the unity was lost, shared 25 years, you were unstoppable, best ever.
Sorry if I am wrong, but you and we at all, should carry each other.
It was about starting new chapter, but as time showed for me, the main soul was lost :(
Wish the best
