I agree. There's something haunting about the repetition of that one line, too. And it's an all-around great song.
My opinion of The Mountain as a whole hasn't fully settled yet. It's definitely a very good record, with highlights, to me, being Atlas Stone, Because It's There, Pareidolia and Somebody. The other songs are good as well. One thing is, as me7 said, it doesn't have highs as high as those of other albums. I think this album is a grower, though, and I'll definitely keep coming back to it.
The thing is, I just can't think of it as being anywhere near a better album than Aquarius, which is still in my opinion the high-water mark for Haken's material. Celestial Elixir is one of the best songs I have ever heard by any band, and the rest of the album is almost as good. Visions and The Mountain are great albums in their own right, and Haken is well on their way to having a great career, but it will be somewhat sad for me personally if they never put out an album that I like better than their debut, however hard to top that record is in my view.
