DT Song of the Day ver. 2.0

Jirpo · March 11, 2011, 06:40:19 PM

I love this song, probably a top 10 DT song for me.

RG93 · March 11, 2011, 08:31:00 PM

This song is the reason SFAM is ranked as a masterpiece. 'Nuff said.

"I'll make her my wife"

The way LaBrie says that line is just so sinister. I love it.

dethklok09 · March 11, 2011, 08:36:09 PM

This song fucking rules. At first I thought it was ok and sort of disregarded it (being I only listened to the first bits) but when I saw it in concert HOLY SHIT. The chorus kicked in and I was never the same again. This fatal tragedy, and tdoe are imo the best songs on the album.

Especially the way he says it here.

Just a great song, I love it.

Really strong opening to the 2nd Act, and it truly sets the demonic mood between the two brothers. Brings the story to an ethereal level, and I love it for that.

Occasional_Madman · March 12, 2011, 09:16:38 AM

Seeing it live made me love it more than I already did. More or less the highlight of Scenes for me.
Also,

WOMP-WOMP

The second act of SFAM is life changing.

Ben_Jamin · March 12, 2011, 10:27:07 AM

I like how you hear the intro in Regression.

dvargas · March 12, 2011, 03:02:58 PM

Incredible ending...

I love the 2010 performance of this song. LaBrie friggin' owns the whole thing.

Aramatheis · March 17, 2011, 10:16:48 AM

Alright, I like this thread, so I'm gonna necro it

In the Presence of Enemies, Pt.1
Discuss.

LieLowTheWantedMan · March 17, 2011, 10:18:21 AM

Dat intro.

Tunnel Vision · March 17, 2011, 10:20:57 AM

Amazing song...I love all 9 minutes of it.

Tomislav95 · March 17, 2011, 01:12:27 PM

Great song.Instrumental section is great and JLB's voice, too.I want something like that on new album

ThroughHerEyesDude6 · March 17, 2011, 02:07:51 PM

The best part of SC, IMHO. I remember when FtBD7 learned the intro just from hearing it over and over and over. He blew me away with it, and it still astounds me that he can do that to this day.

So glad I got to hear it twice live too.

jonny108 · March 17, 2011, 05:21:31 PM

Amazing ...I remember listening to the album when it first came out this song really grabbed me. I thought "I bet this album will be the best thing since Scenes". It wasn't...but still a great album none the less.

This!

RG93 · March 19, 2011, 09:28:51 AM

I'm going to shamelessly bump this.

Let's discuss Scarred, one of DT's controversial tracks on Awake, the other being SDV.

Let's discuss Scarred

Well I haven't listened to it nearly enough to know/remember all the good bits, but what I do know is that it is 11 minutes of greatness.
Maybe I'll put it on repeat for a while...

wasteland · March 19, 2011, 11:07:19 AM

I don't get it. Why is Scarred controversial? I find it the best track on Awake besides Voices, and nearly misses my top 10...

JayOctavarium · March 19, 2011, 12:01:30 PM

doesnt belong

dethklok09 · March 19, 2011, 03:00:01 PM

Some of the best lyrics in the discography.

ThroughHerEyesDude6 · March 19, 2011, 03:25:46 PM

I LOVE the bass groove in the beginning of this song. Again, so glad I got to hear it live.

Mladen · March 20, 2011, 02:11:23 AM

My 5th favorite Dream Theater song. Pure awesomeness in every aspect.

Zydar · March 20, 2011, 02:58:15 AM

For some reason this song has never clicked for me.

dvargas · March 20, 2011, 06:18:34 AM

Best song from Awake (if I split AMBI).

Amazing lyrics, JLB is awesome, amazing instrumental section and outro.

So glad I got to hear it live!!

Tomislav95 · March 24, 2011, 07:56:04 AM

Scarred is in my top 2 with A Change of Seasons

Great song

ThroughHerEyesDude6 · April 23, 2011, 02:05:49 AM

I really don't want to see this thread die yet, so here goes:

"Only a Matter of time"

Easily my favorite off of their first album. And what a closer. Easily top 3 for closers from any album.

Aramatheis · April 23, 2011, 07:18:28 AM

It's so good!

I don't even know what to say about it, it's just an amazing song...
Second only to The Killing Hand on that album, I'd say.

Mladen · April 23, 2011, 08:06:56 AM

Great song, one of my favorites on When dream and day unite. I love that verse that begins with ''A father's benediction...'', we need more stuff like that on their newer albums.

Excellent song, but DT went on to do some pretty damn epic closers--ITNOG, LTL, and Octavarium alone knock it from top 3, not to mention 6DOIT and ITPOE. So, 6th place at best there, but still excellent--I'd rate it in a tie for 3rd on WDADU.

Ben_Jamin · April 24, 2011, 07:57:25 AM

Its a cool way to end their first album, A hopeful song about what them sailing ahead in their music lives...Its only a matter of time.

Tomislav95 · April 24, 2011, 11:13:55 AM

Too hard for James on live shows but it's goo song, one of the best on WDADU.
