Learning to Live

[Knguro]

Probably this has been discussed tons but this video almost makes me cry, this band is just simply a gift to humanity, and we should be happy to be part of their journey also. Enjoy guys.

You just can't appreciate enough this song.

[Zydar]

My favourite DT song.

[TheOutlawXanadu]

Such a feel-good song. Actually, come to think of it, I might try learning it on guitar today!

[wasteland]

My favourite DT song.

i want dat stage backdrop

[Scorpion]

I love this song, but I'm probably one of the few people that doesn't have it in their Top 10. It's great, but there are quite a few better songs.

I agree.

Also, LtL is amazing.

Skip to 7:00... yes... yes... That'll do, James.

[MoraWintersoul]

Every second of this song. Ghhh. Lord.

[Scorpion]

Emo DT fans?

What?

Probably because we're not enjoying LtL enough, and emos are, you know, known for not enjoying life, therefore for not enjoying learning to live as well. I could be wrong, though.

[MetropolisWatches]

i want dat stage backdrop

Me too.

Apparently- Mike Portnoy still has it in storage at his house.

[Fourth Horseman]

Probably my #1 DT song. Simply amazing.

Wouldn't surprise me.

Nope, I'll join you there. It's not in my top 20, probably not even top 50.

James in this clip 

[pkj]

Great performance.  This is one of about a half-dozen songs that sort of lives permanently in my head. 

[TAC]

My favourite DT song.

Same here.

[hefdaddy42]

It's my favorite DT song, as well.

[cookienut]

JLBs voice actually made bacon in that clip.

[Ben_Jamin]

I love the atmosphere and tone of this song.

[Pelata]

You just can't appreciate enough this song.

So true...great song!! 

[ronrule]

Skip to 7:00... yes... yes... That'll do, James.

And check out JP's strumming during that lead-up. haha

[Phoenix87x]

So as I was reading Atlas Shrugged this morning, I came across this line and stopped dead in my tracks for a moment:



It sounded so familiar and then it dawned on me that it reminded me of the opening lyric of Learning to Live. Just an odd little coincidence I wanted to share. 

[Scorpion]

PLAGIARISM

[BlobVanDam]

I do recall someone bringing that one up before, so I think that one has been known for a while. As far as I can recall, that was the only lyrical similarity in the song.

[?]

Dream Theater - ripping off lyrics from books since 1992

On a serious note, I haven't read that book but I remember reading about this similarity in the DT FAQ.

E: ninja'd

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

It's a pretty good song.

[425]

Hmm, I thought that was pretty well known. Actually, reading about it is what made me initially fall in love with Learning to Live, as Atlas Shrugged is one of my favorite books. Also, look two lines down: "He was back in confident self-control".

[TAC]

My favourite DT song.

Same here!
