During the SFAM World Tour, the band performed a cross-album medley titled "When Images And Words Unite", tying their first two album's titles together... but what if they did a medley/mash-up of songs, like "Caught In A New Millennium", but based on titles alone?
Listed above are some choices I've come up with myself, but if you think of any really cool ones that others like, I'll add them to the poll, and allow people to change their votes, of which you'll get THREE.
Let's keep these titles to a two-song format - for example, don't go too crazy like combining the first two choices I have listed and come up with something like "Pull Me Under A Glass Prison"... I think mashing up two DT songs would be crazy enough!
-Marc.

Based solely on title, this is a pretty strange thread. That being said, I've always welcomed the idea of another mashup, and Learning to Live Forever could potentially be pretty cool.

Learning To Live Forever.
I'd come with the force of a thousand suns.

I'd come with the force of a thousand suns.
This seems to be the only correct answer.

Learning to Live Forever
Beyond this Afterlife

Learning To Live Forever. This would surpass all my expectations.

A Fortune in the NAme of God sounds great.

I chose Under a Glass Prison, I Walk Beside You Not Me and Prophets of War Inside My Head
Napalm showers showed the cowards
We have ourselves to blame :P
-
IMO A Fortune in Lies Within is pretty cool.
Kudos at Marc for the creativity
-
Pull Me Under a Glass Prison Moon
Learning to Live Forever
-
Wow The Dark Eternal Nightmare To Remember must be pretty damn badass.
That said, Learning to Live Forever is indeed the best option.
-
Caught in the Presence of Enemies

Interesting.
Learning To Live Forever.

Some of these are interesting ideas but my original thought was to not combine titles with articles (using just "A" or "The"), or just prepositions (like "Of" or "In"), but only in combination with another word, like "A Fortune In Lies Within", where "In Lies" is the end of one song title" and "Lies Within" is part of another, where the segue between titles is more than just one word.
I know hearing a mash-up of some of those epics would be awesome, but you could do that with ANY of DT's titles really, but based on title alone, they don't have many relative words. I do like "Stream Of Tears" though, as the title works figuratively. As for "Caught In the Presence Of Enemies", I thought about that, and realized just linking by the preposition would be a bit weak as you could do that same idea with a few other DT songs - "_______ of ______" or "_____ in _____" and some up with titles like "In The Presence Of Lost Souls" or "The Ministry Of Tuscany", and also I had already used "Caught In A New Millennium" as an example, and it was something they already did anyway.

I don't care about this thread unless someone's able to make some of these mash-ups a reality.

Well if someone has the stem tracks to BC&SL, I'm sure someone here could whip up "The Dark Eternal Nightmare To Remember".
-Marc.
-
I chose 'I Walk Beside You Not Me' and 'Learning to Live Forever'. Realistically, Learning to Live Forever could be the absolute best song I could ever hear... but I Walk Beside You Not Me could be an epic tale of a person who falls in love with a clone of themselves.
-
Pull Me Under A Glass Moon. This would just kick ass.

All of these just makes me laugh!

THE DARK ETERNAL NIGHTMARE TO REMEMBER
METAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL OVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAD
I all seriousness, though, Stream of Constant Motion sounds like an awesome song title (maybe that's because I love Stream of Consciousness way more than I should).
-
Prophets of War Inside My Head
How did I not think of this one before? Hmmm... Very nice!
EDIT - *looks up at Poll Options*...oh wait, I did think of it. Oh well
I tried thinking of more to use with the new album's song titles but couldn't think of more, outside of doing "Build Me Up, Breaking All Illusions" or something silly like that.
What about "This Is The Afterlife"? Or "Pull Me Under, Break Me Down"?
-Marc.

The Spirit Carries On the Backs of Angels

Bridges In The Peruvian Sky ('Vanessa take my haaaaand')

Learning To Break All Illusions
(Sorry, couldn't help it) ...and I'm really surprised it hasn't been said yet.
-
The answer lies within the great debate
I walk beside you misunderstood
Blind faith in the name of god
A Nightmare to remember one last time
Pull me under the root of all evil
A rite of passage beyond this life
Lol didn't think much on how it would actually mesh but I had fun pitting the titles together.
Although I do think pull me under the root of all evil would mesh up nicely.
-
Pull Me Under A Glass Moon
Learning To Live Forever
Lost Under A Forgotten Moon :neverusethis:
I once posted this one:
The Ones Who Help To Set The Controls To The Heart Of The Crimson Sunrise
It's not all DT, but it's quite satisfactory, I must admit ;)
-
I just want to see another concept album like this
The scarred silent man forsaken under a glass prison...
Wait for the answer dying as lines in the sand...
As this faded lost soul of innocence I am lies beside you..
Through these walls scarified and shattered the miracle of this life
Far beyond bridges in the sky, from heaven breaking the endless outcry
A constant reflection of moon lies beneath the surface...
A change through the best of times...caught in full circle
Voices disappear, words surrounded..
One last kiss of eternity, one last time to remember
Ready to sleep forever,
Remove all illusions, finally break free
A dying scarred silent shattered man carries on..
On the backs of angels.. in the name of angels...
Note: I think I did not cheat, as all the words used are from the song titles. :):)
-
Learning To Live Forever.... fun thread :D
-
I voted The Dark Eternal Nightmare To Remember :D it's satanic :metal and Learning To Live Forever reminds of Queen Who Wants To Live Forever ;) Anyway, some very cool titles up there :tup
-
Burning This Dying Soul sounds awesome :)
-
Burning This Dying Soul On The Backs Of Angels is Breaking All Illusions on Falling Into Infinity...

Set Your Controls - Star One from Space Metal (I assume).
How about Wait for Sleep Far From Heaven. A Change of Illusions.
-
As far as I know Set Your Controls To The Heart of The Sun is Pink Floyd.

Build Me Up, Break All Illusions
Bridges In The Peruvian Sky
Beyond This Is The Life
Some ones involving the new album.
-
Added some of the new suggestions, as well as these new ones I just came up with:
You Not Forgotten
Lines In The Sky / Bridges In The Sand
Bridges In The Presence Of Enemies
Bridges In The Name Of God
Gotta admit, the last three would sound AWESOME.
-Marc.
-
The Root Of All Illusions sounds pretty good.
How about Caught In a Trial of Tears? A Rite of Blind Faith? Just Let Me Take The Time? :lol
-
Learning To Live Forever sounds amazing.

Learning to Live Forever, and Lines in the Sky / Bridges in the Sand sound pretty epic.
-
Well, if we could mix up other artists...
The Great Bridge in the Sky
It's Only Another Killing Hand (props to who finds what song this is)
I Am Hell's Kitchen
Aaand that's all I can off the top of my head.

Lifting Shadows off Eternity :P

"As I unlearn to learning to live" :D
-
Learning to Live Forever
Stream of Constant Motion
and, for the hell of it: The Root of All Illusions
silly thread is silly though.
-
"Build Me A Web"
Considering they're both 7-string songs in Db Minor (???), it could work.
-
A Change Of Consciousness
-
"Build Me A Web"
Considering they're both 7-string songs in Db Minor ( ??? ), it could work.
You build me up, you break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
Hangin on by a thread
Spinning the lies devised in my head

So it's been a few months since DT12 came out and I forgot about this thread from awhile ago, but I figured with 9 new songs, we could mash-up some of their titles with older songs and come up with more!
"The Looking Glass Prison"
"The Looking Glass Moon"
"In The Presence Of Enemies Inside"
"Ynigma Jamchine"...okay, so that one really doesn't work...
I guess the new album's titles don't have much to work with as far as mash-ups, unless you want to just mix up titles without any shared words or phrases.
-Marc.
-
One Last Tragedy
As I Wither
Surrounded In The Presence of Enemies
Illumination Inside
How bad were those?
-
The Glass Soul : The Root of all Repentance Shattered "
:neverusethis:
-
Pull Me Under These Looking Glass Prison Walls
-
I don't like mash-up songs, but I just voted for the three titles I liked best:
Under A Glass Prison
Learning To Live Forever
Lines in the Sky/Bridges in the Sand
I might want to change the last one for "The Dark Eternal Nightmare To Remember" though.
-
Under A Looking Glass Prison.
-
If they ever made a song that combined everything great about TROAE and everything great about BAI it would easily be my favorite DT song. As it stands that's the only matchup that's two top ten songs for me, so
-
The Stream of All Consciousness
I'm not entirely sure if it could work. Same guitar tuning (Eb), different bass tunings (SOC = Standard?, TROAE = Bb), different key sigs (SOC = C# minor, TROAE = F minor), similar tempos. The title is fantastic though.

Solitary Shell's Kitchen

Learning to Live Forever would indeed own all, but I decided to give some of the others a fair chance.
Based on song titles alone:
Beyond This Dying Soul
The Root of All Illusions
Lines in the Sky
-
I came up with a few more that may or may not be awful.
Hell's Lost Souls
In The Presence of God
-
SixdegramatichaosOnaChristmasMorning
-
Space-Dy Vest of Times.
-
Space Deja Vest
Strange Dye Vu
As I Jam
:clap:
-
As I Jam
This Dying Jam
Jam Sacrifice
Honor Thy Jam
Stream of Jam
In the Name of Jam
We could honestly have a whole thread around inserting 'Jam' into every song title. It's actually highly entertaining.

Alright I'll stop. Gotta save a few for everyone else.

Beyond this afterlife wins. Sort of after-afterlife, beyond all possible human thinking (or wishing).
