They all reprise certain songs?

Mirror SDV
Lie Mirror
Repentance This Dying Soul

Very cool about SDV, but no.

This one is kind of tough (I thought)

John94 · September 27, 2011, 12:58:12 PM

Damn, thought it was that!

How about they all refer to mirrors/The Mirror.

Metrovarium · September 27, 2011, 12:58:41 PM

When is SDV reprised in the Mirror?

Nope.

A few more guesses and I'll give a hint

5:16. Sound familiar?

I'm not sure how I didn't notice that.

Freko · September 27, 2011, 03:19:49 PM

They have Trust/Trusting in the lyrics!

No worries. =D I actually didn't catch it myself until someone pointed it out to me, so.

Nope.

Hint: owning the making of Systematic Chaos and Live in Tokyo will help

fibreoptix · September 27, 2011, 10:05:43 PM

Puppies on Acid... Kittens on Crack.. Fisheye!

They all reference animals in their working titles.

Zook · September 27, 2011, 10:27:29 PM

Clever girl.

If that's not the right answer, he should win anyway.

My hint was too good! Correct!

fibreoptix · September 28, 2011, 05:37:35 AM

Alright, popping up town for an hour or two... I'll have a think and post one later today.

John94 · September 28, 2011, 07:18:51 AM

Make it one that I can get! I have already though of a couple I can ask, which I hope aren't too easy!

fibreoptix · September 28, 2011, 07:26:17 AM

OK, let's see how this one goes.

Peruvian Skies
Surrounded
Octavarium

namgalsipsclar · September 28, 2011, 08:18:26 AM

Introductions all start with just one instrument

fibreoptix · September 28, 2011, 08:18:55 AM

Nope.

namgalsipsclar · September 28, 2011, 08:28:01 AM

Well this is a little vague, but all three songs have distinctively different sounding sections

BlobVanDam · September 28, 2011, 08:32:38 AM

If it was just the first two, I'd say they've both been played live with sections of another band's song stuck in, but I don't think they've ever done that for Octavarium.

The only other thing I can think of is that they all have a female character in them.

Unless you count Jingle Bells.

Mbarak · September 28, 2011, 09:19:56 AM

Not really in common, but each song was recorded by one of DT keyboardists.

Surrounded
Octavarium

Each song was played live in at least one tour with an extended intro played by Jordan Rudess on one of his side instruments (Lap Steel Guitar for PS in 2005/2006, Continuum for Octa in the same years and Memotron - was it called that way? - for Surrounded in 2007).

John94 · September 28, 2011, 09:38:32 AM

They all incorporate Pink Floyd references or have done in live performances?

Well, shit. What do I do? I was gonna drop a hint later on highlighting Octavarium as somewhat of a red herring, but you've both somehow gotten the answer right between you.

BlobVanDam · September 28, 2011, 11:23:54 AM

I'm fine with a fight to the death. I either win, or I die with honour, so it's really a win-win.

Mh, the three of them are somehow inspired by or dedicated to other people?

So who wants it? Everything's up for grabs!

Fiery Winds · September 28, 2011, 01:17:53 PM

I'll post one that shouldn't take too long and is bending the rules at only two songs.

Solitary Shell
Octavarium

Mh, the "characters" are lost inside some metaphorical oppressive reality? ("lost within himself in a solitary shell" and "trapped inside this Octavarium")

Elite · September 28, 2011, 01:25:11 PM

Both feature single-voiced keyboard solos.

Fiery Winds · September 28, 2011, 01:26:26 PM

Nope and nope.

ddtonfire · September 28, 2011, 01:36:33 PM

12-string guitars.

It has to do with the music itself? Or is it a live thing?

Fiery Winds · September 28, 2011, 01:45:45 PM

Something within the song.
