The song was written by Chris DeGarmo. He's the man playing the guitar, he wrote this song one night after conforting one of his children who had a nightmare. In essence the song is written as a lullaby. It is a beautiful song with a sweet back story to it.
It's not just the lyrics, which are genius, but the arrangement of the guitars and the orchestral. Then Geoff Tate's voice plus the harmonizing of the vocals put it in a class by itself. A true masterpiece all around.
I've been listening to this song since it was released. It still overwhelms me to the point of tears. One of the most beautiful songs around. Glad you like it!
As a child, I had no one to protect me. I loved this song. It seemed like what nurturing should be. Fast forward to today, and I watched my son dancing in bubbles while playing with friends. I have been able to raise him, protect him, nurture him, and yes... calm his fearful mind while he sleeps. He will never know what I went through. I realized today that I had succeeded when I saw his smile.
This song is a GODWINK. I have leukemia, take chemo daily, and I have lucid dreams very often. No one including my wife, can never understand it. I think God is preparing me for death, in his own way. It’s scares me sometimes, but I’ve found I’m able to control my own dreams. So I determine the outcome. When I meet him, God can let me know if that was his intention.
Written about a person having a lucid dream. A lucid dream happens when you are aware you are dreaming, and can control parts of it. He got the idea from a book. Great song and reaction. Thank You!!
@@SarahDengler This is the third video of yours that I have watched tonight. The joy and heartfelt emotion you exuded has made me a subscriber. Queensryche is one of my all-time favorite bands and Geoff Tate is one of the most uniquely talented singers there has ever been, as far as I'm concerned. I saw them in 91' and it was the best concert, hands down, that I've ever been to. It was otherworldly. I got to see this song performed live and it was magical. Geoff Tate's voice is something really special. He is just as good live and his voice is insanely powerful. The band is also phenomenal live. He isn't with them anymore, but both the band and him are doing their own US tours this year. My friend and I are going to at least go see Geoff Tate.
Written by the excellent guitarist Chris deGarmo. The musical arrangement and the song itself are just beautiful. I’m Australian and only found this song about 3 yrs ago, they were not big here. What a masterpiece this is!!
Man this brought me to tears. As a 37 year old man that bottles my emotions, it kind of felt good to let it out. LOVED your reaction to this! To me, I always feel like you have to be in the right stage of your life to really feel certain songs on a deep emotional level like you experienced. It's refreshing knowing others get so touched by powerful music, makes me feel less lonely.
Queensryche are doing an American tour this year. I haven't seen them with their "new" singer, but I got to see them with Geoff Tate in 91' on their Building Empires tour. That concert was hands down the best show I've ever gotten to go to, by miles. Tate is doing his own tour this year, as well, performing songs from The Warning and Operation: Mindcrime. My friend and I are going to at least go see him. His voice and presence are otherworldly.
the album name is pretty funny, since actually some of the songs in it, including silent lucidity actually include things that are illegal in multiple countries including usa. since silent lucidity is one of those multilayered songs, but the main point is that in one of those layers they quite directly talk about some info which actually is one of those things people are forbidden to talk about by most states.
@@mermaid_at_heart213 cool, also remember your dreams and know this one thing. whatever it is you desire most actually is quite much more possible than most even dare to dream. reality itself works just like a lucid dream, and so can be controlled in a similar way. if you understand and control that already then soon you should be safe. if you don't understand or see that yet, try to see the magic and become it, also soon you will see as soon something big will happen as dragons return to help the world. since you are a mermaid, that might be interesting for you to know, since then you no longer need to hide, as well as won't be suppressed anymore. I know of the struggles right now and many of the reasons and fears that cause most to try to hide and even suppress themselves to try and remain hidden. but soon those struggles will be over. also in any case learning real magic(not as in spells or rituals or such, but just using your mind and will to create whatever change in "reality" you feel like) might be useful as well anyway, I don't know what you already know and can do, you likely wouldn't talk about the extend fully either. but I know many mermaid are very talented in seeing people's thoughts and memories, I don't know how to explain it other than the feeling when doing it. but you kind of just take their head typically, even though that might differ for some, they will often first try to move away/out since they notice something is going on, also it works best if you first take away their means of harming you and make it so that they see themselves as needing to get away from you or just incapable of harming you might also work, even though that just makes it more easy. the getting into their minds is mostly on feeling but for some it is just like some kind of waving in both vision and feeling kind of like a stereotypical flashback like thing(like how that looks in movies kind of) until you eventually get more and more into their mind. once you are in you can experience everything directly from their point of view and even their feelings. you can see their memories and everything, this can be useful and it can be fun. outsource in normal scenarios with other more similar beings it is better to directly communicate a lot with feelings and let your feelings and all be truly open. some other things also come naturally, but this one is one that actually comes quite naturally to many yet which many do not know about. when learning such things however for some it might be hard but continue anyway, at some point often something happens like some danger or such or something you need to get out of into to for example save someone or something, in such cases your magic things will often suddenly work. ofcource changing the physical world itself can also be useful, but for some that might be hard to comprehend in case they might not yet know about real magic. also in case you are strong enough how about you help me train people as well as protect people and eventually free this world, not in all cases people need to know for sure that you are the real deal.
I respect your post. But to put ANY QUEENSRYCHE Up against, 1st, Pink Floyd & 2nd, Dark side of the moon is a HUGE stretch. Dark side, I think is probably still on the charts? I know they were for 20-30 yrs. IMO they shouldn’t be mentioned in the same sentence as Floyd. 🤷♂️ sorry.
Whether you interpret it as a song about a parent watching over a child having a nightmare, or a slightly more supernatural take of a deceased father promising to watch over a child from the other side, it's a very powerful song that really tugs at the heartstrings. It's definitely different from a lot of Queensryche's harder rock offerings, but still probably my favorite from their library.
When you've been lost as I have. Abused and mentally tormented, this song represents the strength of positive thinking and feeling the love of God to pull you through. I cry so many times listening to this because it is just that perfect song of recovery and hope and love. This band, wow!!!
Love how you can take in the song, Sarah! This masterpiece has been with me since its release back then... All through the years it has been just: Wow!!
I've loved this song since it came out. Even seen it live. It always held a special place in my heart, but even more so since my wife passed. But your summary was the best I have ever heard. Thank you.
I would sing this to my daughter to get her to sleep. She used to have real bad night terrors as an early age, this was one of the few ways I could get her to sleep through the night. Great reaction, much love.
I was 8 when this came out. It blew my mind that there were songs that existed that can take you away. Just sit in the dark, and float off. I absolutely love that. It's the closest thing to meditation that I've been able to achieve. Bands like Pink Floyd, and Tool are amazing at achieving that state in the listener too. I very much understand the feeling you talk about. I'm glad you enjoyed this 😊.
Been a Queensryche fan since the first EP showed up at the record store that I worked at. A friend came down to Dallas when Queensryche had a concert there on the Empire tour. A few years before we worked nights and listened to Operation: Mindcrime a lot. He passed away in 2006 and this was played at his funeral...it was still his favorite song 15 years later.
I love that you were so emotionally honest about it. I too feel this way, as a grown man, this song can bring tears. I think the overall message of the song is simply, "Life is but a Dream..."
I saw this and had to comment. Most reaction videos pause multiple times throughout the song. You paused your commentary until the end. You felt the song. Your emotions came to the surface. Thanks for sharing.
I was there when Queensryche broke. They came along just in the nick of time as hair metal was getting really old. This group was WAY beyond their time. I would say more than any other group. There are the incredible guitars of Wilton and DeGarmo and that amazing voice of Geoff's. They made you think. They made you cry. They made you assertive. When you go through their entire catalog, then you can only begin to scratch the surface of this enigma. They were smart, they were cool and they always brought us along for the ride. When Geoff left, it broke my heart. This young lady is getting the same effect that I had, from this group many years before she was born. I love that. It's so cool to see young people digging into what was real. I'm sixty now and I have been treated to everything from the Crooners all the way to Greta Van Fleet. I'm a lucky SOB.
This song has been a constant source of positive movement in my life ! I have been through so much loss ! Just like stairway to heaven it is a song of hope ! And anyone who loves music knows exactly what I mean when I say songs of hope !! God bless you all !!!
You got the music in you girl, love seeing how music makes you feel, I feel the same, and thank you for sharing! Queensryche is such a wonderful band...most of all their songs are very deep and profound. yes, Life is a dream...don't be afraid because you are not alone.
Great reaction, Sarah! This seems like a good time to give you a reminder of a song to get to, as well as a new suggestion to put on your list! The new song is "Lightning Crashes" by a group called Live. The reminder is "Friends of Mr. Cairo" by Jon and Vangelis (Jon being Jon Anderson of Yes) - but please find a version with the lyrics because there are a lot of them and it is easy to get lost without!! Take care Sarah!!
Just an amazing piece of art, both musically and lyrically... "If you open your mind for me you won't rely on open eyes to see." "Your dream's alive, you can be the guide..."
I put this masterpiece to my 2yo son since he was born. Last week I explained the lyrics and now every time we listen to the song he moves his head and says "daddy's song, bad dream, everything is ok" This song sums up my feelings as a father.
Let me first say I love the fact that you don't stop the video you listen to it with subtle comments and your comments afterwards are emotional to me as well as the song, I watch you and it makes me smile and I feel you.
THANK YOU : For NOT Destroying the song in the process of anilising it !!! When DREAMING The trick is,when your falling in your dream and you reach bottom is to not wake up! Then yoi`ll you will be AWAKE within your Dream ! When you can CONTROLL what you do within your dream,aware and contance You will be ASTRO TRAVELLING,And you will be able to travel to other DIMENTIONS and should be able to REMEMBER what you had experianced ! IT`S A BEAUTIFUL THING!!!
I was so glad to accidentally run into this. This song is like a journey. You have picked one of the best. Dreams that feel real, are real. Much love! De 😊♥️
After making sure I haven’t commented on this video this is one of those classics that won’t be forgotten. This woman probably feels like all of us when we hear or see a magical experience. Great performance very touching song with excellent musicians. Great job!
Felt like a child that lost their grandparent they were really close to. A parent that protects the child as they went through the lost of that parent... different interpetation of mine of this song.
❤ This was my son's lulabye song when he was a baby and he still listens to Queensryche and this song at 32yrs old ❤ Hé loves Take Hold of the Flame too..Geoff Tate is one of the best singers ever!
Thank you❤. .Your reactions are always so incredibly sincere and your emotion is so true and honest...A pleasure watching you! The Best reactions by far !! Thank you for allowing the songs to play. ..I. Think you are the only person who does that.. and when people interrupt and stop the song so many times it messes up that overall experience of the song and the fact that you let it play allows you to truly appreciate the the song as it was meant to be
This was my mom's most fav from them cuz she didn't have the parental love she should have had and it still makes me cry to this day even tho she's gone from this realm,
I sing this song to my wife, she gets a lot of anxiety relating to death, and this pulls her out of it instantly. As far as vocals for the 80's, it's Geoff Tate and Sebastian Bach, both have a gift
@6:33, Okay so my thing with this song is, my big brother was an incredible guitarist 🎸, everyday when he'd be practicing/playing I'd go ask can you play a song for me, and he knew me, and would in turn say, not Silent Lucidity 😅, bc he'd played it for me ALOT! lol, and I'd give him the "puppy dog" eyes and "that face", and he'd say don't give me that look, it's not gonna work, I'd still do it and say, pretty please, just once, and he'd look up from the guitar and 'act' bugged, and say, FINE! But just this time! It has a whole different meaning for me now as well as the memories of those times, since we lost my big brother 💔...I know that he "sees" it all differently now too....😢 now that he is my guardian angel 😇 and he was always with me, watching over me in life, I know he does even more so now that he's got his wings 🪽 ❤️
I ❤ this song 🎶 for so many years ❤. I use it as my wake up song / alarm. This song is phenomenal and it leaves me with peace. ❤ You’re reaction to this beautiful song is how I feel too 💕
Hey hun, it's said like (Queens-Rike) and I love your reactions, can't wait to see this one, it's a very special song for me...I'll tell you why later... Getting the feeling you're gonna cry, please don't or I will too, I have a strict philosophy that nobody cries alone in my presence... Geoff Tate, is an incredible artist! (The singer)
I lost contact with my dad a few years ago because of some incredibly toxic family members... He'd developed early onset dementia, and we as his children were doing all that we could to take care of him, when dad's sister swooped in and took him in, selling off all his belongings, and frequently saying we weren't doing enough. I tried so hard to stay in touch, but the daily gaslighting of his sister made it so unbearably toxic that I could no longer maintain a relationship. We couldn't afford legal recourse, and it felt like I had lost him all over again. I often wonder if he's doing okay, or if he's even still alive. Whenever I listen to this song, I think of him, and how often I silently send him my thoughts, my love, and my deepest regret.. and wonder if he's thinking of me, too.
And that is the magic of Geoff Tate... explore more Queensryche. You won't regret it. Listen to "Take Hold of the Flame" (live 1984 version is my favorite).
Os jovens de hoje não sabe e nem conhece músicas lindas do passado que realmente mexem com nossa alma. Me emocionei com seu com sua reação muito lindo o que vc disse, um fraterno abraço
Great band. Their lead singer is fantastic. Very pink floydish. When i first heard this song i actually thought it was pink floyd. I think a lot of people did.
I do believe if I remember correctly, I’ve been listening to this since the age of seven he wrote this song for his son who was either unable to hear or see I don’t recall which making a song even more beautiful
Having a bad dream is scary for anyone Knowing that we live in reality can be just as scary as a dream coming from a adult with a child's brain This song has always had a sense of heaven coming down and protecting many of us in scary situations It's very great compiled sweet serious song 😇
nominated for a Grammy. They shoulda won. This song always gets me. I cry. Just so beautiful.
The song was written by Chris DeGarmo. He's the man playing the guitar, he wrote this song one night after conforting one of his children who had a nightmare. In essence the song is written as a lullaby. It is a beautiful song with a sweet back story to it.

❤
yes , never been a fan but will be the first to say this has to be in the top ten songs ever wrote.
It's not just the lyrics, which are genius, but the arrangement of the guitars and the orchestral. Then Geoff Tate's voice plus the harmonizing of the vocals put it in a class by itself. A true masterpiece all around.

I can't agree with you more. This song is so soulful, haunting and beautiful. It's a masterpiece!
Same. Had the cassette!!
I've got tears as im writing this reply to agree with you haha
Yep. Got me in tears once again, both from the song and from this beautiful lady's reaction.
😢I course love ❤️ this 🎵 song
This song reaches deep into your soul. Once you have heard it, it will stay with you forever.
I first heard it when I was 9 years old and I have loved it ever since.
I can listen to it over and over again and never get sick of it.
No matters how many times I listen to this song it always makes me fucking cry
same.
Yep, doin' it now.
That drop when the band comes in gets me literally everyt time
As a child, I had no one to protect me. I loved this song. It seemed like what nurturing should be. Fast forward to today, and I watched my son dancing in bubbles while playing with friends. I have been able to raise him, protect him, nurture him, and yes... calm his fearful mind while he sleeps. He will never know what I went through. I realized today that I had succeeded when I saw his smile.
Beautiful comment..well done!
Your story touched my heart. It is similar to mine. Give your son a hug for me. May Jehovah hold and comfort you both. ❤❤❤
Some day, when he's a man, you should share your story with him. If you learned from your hardships, he may as well. We need good fathers like you.
This song is a GODWINK. I have leukemia, take chemo daily, and I have lucid dreams very often. No one including my wife, can never understand it. I think God is preparing me for death, in his own way.
It’s scares me sometimes, but I’ve found I’m able to control my own dreams. So I determine the outcome.
When I meet him, God can let me know if that was his intention.
God bless you
Do Brasil....espero que esteja bem e curada..
Onze meses após sua postagem, torço muito para que esteja restabelecido e melhor do que nunca. Deus esteja sempre com você!
Deus te abençoe
God bless you and keep you.
May we get a status update?
I love the reactor's naration of her feelings to the song. What a tender hearted young lady.
One of the most moving beautiful songs of all time…..❤️
Written about a person having a lucid dream. A lucid dream happens when you are aware you are dreaming, and can control parts of it. He got the idea from a book. Great song and reaction. Thank You!!
My pleasure, thanks for watching 🙂🙏

"if you open your mind for me, you wont rely on open eyes to see" this part means a lot of things, it is so complex, love it.
Their album Operation: Mindcrime is still one of best concept albums ever, right up there with Dark Side of the Moon.

This song was total inspiration.. it touched the soul didn't it?

Always been one of my favorite songs period❤
I always interpreted as spirited loved ones who watch over us.. I strongly know they are with us. From the the first time I heard that song.
That was my take on it as well!
Feels like maybe a family member passed away and returns in night to take child on out of body experience, guardian angel 😇 so to speak.
There have been many great rock ballads recorded in music. In my opinion, this may be the best and most beautiful composition.
When you've been lost as I have. Abused and mentally tormented, this song represents the strength of positive thinking and feeling the love of God to pull you through. I cry so many times listening to this because it is just that perfect song of recovery and hope and love. This band, wow!!!

I listen to song back 1991 and 2024 still listen love this song great song i miss 90 s
First song I played for and sang to my son, age, 20minutes as I was handing him to his mother. Talk about a moment in time.
This song is magical!
Absolutely beautiful song. Fabulous voice. Your reaction was lovely. 😊
Love how you can take in the song, Sarah! This masterpiece has been with me since its release back then... All through the years it has been just: Wow!!
This song will always be on my "incredible" list. Heavenly!

I put this masterpiece to my 2yo son since he was born. Last week I explained the lyrics and now every time we listen to the song he moves his head and says "daddy's song, bad dream, everything is ok" This song sums up my feelings as a father.
I love this group have for years. My favorite is Operation Mindcrime! That album, those songs made me love this group!
It's easy to miss but the song ends with Brahms' "Lullaby".
Oh wow never knew lol
Always loved that about this song. It’s perfect!
this song always brings tears to my eyes, beautiful song
It’s the most beautiful song of all time Hands down
Let me first say I love the fact that you don't stop the video you listen to it with subtle comments and your comments afterwards are emotional to me as well as the song, I watch you and it makes me smile and I feel you.
All the following comments are beautiful and poignant for a beautifully crafted song. As good as it gets all around.
You have such a beautiful interpretation of this song. I experienced precisely what you so eloquently put into words.
THANK YOU : For NOT Destroying the song in the process of anilising it !!!
When DREAMING The trick is,when your falling in your dream and you reach bottom

When you can CONTROLL what you do within your dream,aware and contance

Wow! You’re reaction was absolutely beautiful. Brought a tear to my eye. Bravo!
I was so glad to accidentally run into this. This song is like a journey. You have picked one of the best. Dreams that feel real, are real. Much love! De 😊♥️
After making sure I haven’t commented on this video this is one of those classics that won’t be forgotten. This woman probably feels like all of us when we hear or see a magical experience. Great performance very touching song with excellent musicians. Great job!
Great song , this will be always a classic, since the first time i heard this, felt in loe with his song, it touch my soul.
Felt like a child that lost their grandparent they were really close to. A parent that protects the child as they went through the lost of that parent... different interpetation of mine of this song.
Beautiful Song! ♥️
Beautiful voice, beautiful song
Luv when you youngsters enjoy what I grew up with. Much ❤️
Excellent song by an excellent band.
Sarah you loved it Queensryche are awesome band that you’ll adore ❤
❤ This was my son's lulabye song when he was a baby and he still listens to Queensryche and this song at 32yrs old ❤ Hé loves Take Hold of the Flame too..Geoff Tate is one of the best singers ever!
Thank you❤. .Your reactions are always so incredibly sincere and your emotion is so true and honest...A pleasure watching you! The Best reactions by far !! Thank you for allowing the songs to play. ..I. Think you are the only person who does that.. and when people interrupt and stop the song so many times it messes up that overall experience of the song and the fact that you let it play allows you to truly appreciate the the song as it was meant to be
This was my mom's most fav from them cuz she didn't have the parental love she should have had and it still makes me cry to this day even tho she's gone from this realm,
I sing this song to my wife, she gets a lot of anxiety relating to death, and this pulls her out of it instantly. As far as vocals for the 80's, it's Geoff Tate and Sebastian Bach, both have a gift
A mesmerizing song. One of my favorites. Glad it affected you so Sarah.
Oh yeah! I've been a lucid dreamer my whole life, where it's like real, and I at one point did achieve dream control and you can too!❤ Blessings ✨️
@6:33, Okay so my thing with this song is, my big brother was an incredible guitarist 🎸, everyday when he'd be practicing/playing I'd go ask can you play a song for me, and he knew me, and would in turn say, not Silent Lucidity 😅, bc he'd played it for me ALOT! lol, and I'd give him the "puppy dog" eyes and "that face", and he'd say don't give me that look, it's not gonna work, I'd still do it and say, pretty please, just once, and he'd look up from the guitar and 'act' bugged, and say, FINE! But just this time! It has a whole different meaning for me now as well as the memories of those times, since we lost my big brother 💔...I know that he "sees" it all differently now too....😢 now that he is my guardian angel 😇 and he was always with me, watching over me in life, I know he does even more so now that he's got his wings 🪽 ❤️
I ❤ this song 🎶 for so many years ❤. I use it as my wake up song / alarm. This song is phenomenal and it leaves me with peace. ❤ You’re reaction to this beautiful song is how I feel too 💕
God Bless you dear. Great review of an Amazing song.
What a great song, can give u chills, hard to find a song with meaning and so touching as this one ..
Hey hun, it's said like (Queens-Rike) and I love your reactions, can't wait to see this one, it's a very special song for me...I'll tell you why later...
Getting the feeling you're gonna cry, please don't or I will too, I have a strict philosophy that nobody cries alone in my presence... Geoff Tate, is an incredible artist! (The singer)
This song reaches into your soul and fills you with something indescribable - just like your reaction :)
You've hit the nail on the head. Poetic
I lost contact with my dad a few years ago because of some incredibly toxic family members... He'd developed early onset dementia, and we as his children were doing all that we could to take care of him, when dad's sister swooped in and took him in, selling off all his belongings, and frequently saying we weren't doing enough. I tried so hard to stay in touch, but the daily gaslighting of his sister made it so unbearably toxic that I could no longer maintain a relationship. We couldn't afford legal recourse, and it felt like I had lost him all over again. I often wonder if he's doing okay, or if he's even still alive. Whenever I listen to this song, I think of him, and how often I silently send him my thoughts, my love, and my deepest regret.. and wonder if he's thinking of me, too.
This song is definitely a masterpiece.. It's music... Not the BS that sounds all around us now.
Love your reaction and love that you connected with it.
And that is the magic of Geoff Tate... explore more Queensryche. You won't regret it. Listen to "Take Hold of the Flame" (live 1984 version is my favorite).
Os jovens de hoje não sabe e nem conhece músicas lindas do passado que realmente mexem com nossa alma. Me emocionei com seu com sua reação muito lindo o que vc disse, um fraterno abraço
Great band. Their lead singer is fantastic. Very pink floydish. When i first heard this song i actually thought it was pink floyd. I think a lot of people did.
A MASTERPIECE ✨👊🏾
I do believe if I remember correctly, I’ve been listening to this since the age of seven he wrote this song for his son who was either unable to hear or see I don’t recall which making a song even more beautiful
One of the best songs ever.
Might be the best reaction video I’ve ever seen
I love this song and your reaction to it.
The feelings I get when listening to this song is comfort and nostalgia.
Having a bad dream is scary for anyone
Knowing that we live in reality can be just as scary as a dream coming from a adult with a child's brain
This song has always had a sense of heaven coming down and protecting many of us in scary situations
It's very great compiled sweet serious song
😇
wow, I'm so surprised and impressed that you came across this song! young people don't really know this song
If this is your first time listening to Queensryche, I'd recommend you next listen to either " I don't believe in love" or "Eyes of a stranger."
Thank you for your joy, me and my 3 friends thank you👍👍👍👍👍👍
