What DT song makes you smile?
« on: September 09, 2012, 11:52:19 AM »
So, I had some surgery recently and I can't walk around properly, feeling a bit in the dumps etc... and so I just put my iPod on to shuffle, a few songs played and then  Under a Glass Moon  came on. I don't know what it is, it isn't even in my top 20 DT Songs, but every time I hear that intro I just feel all happy and smiley. I just can't help feeling bright and positive when I hear that song.

So then DTF, what Dream Theater song/s make you smile the most?

I played Under A Glass Moon while I was on London Bridge in the rain at night, watching nervous flashlights and liquid shadows as I walked.  :)

Innocence Faded. No question.

Take The Time and Metropolis Pt. 1 are close seconds.

Take the Time usually does it for me, but if that doesn't work then I usually just put on Home.

Hmmm... LSoaD, probably. Not even because of the lyrics, but because of the peaceful and calm mood that it exudes.

Boobs are a perfect representation of the universe.  They are circles within circles.  What is the single most common shape in the universe?  Circles.  When I look at boobs, I think of the big bang.

PMU... because it has been the highlight of 3/5 of the DT shows I've seen. Headbanging arm and arm with my closest friends

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Bridges In The Sky. It's just so awesome throughout musically. I only wish the drums sounded a little bit more in your face and the guitars less scooped. I'm not able to point out if it's high mids or treble, but I'd like the guitars to have just a little more punch.

Take the Time, Surrounded, 6:00, Innocence Faded, Lines in the Sand, Blind Faith, About to Crash (both parts), The Answer Lies Within, Panic Attack (mostly cause I usually listen to it while playing rock band, really fun song on drums), ITPOE pt 1, end of TCOT, and Bridges in the Sky.

Just to name a couple lol. DT songs almost always put me in a certain mood. Disappear makes me feel solemn, The Mirror makes me feel slightly aggressive/angry, etc.
