1:23 I always loved that little hi-hat reference to the main riff from Metropolis.

[@danielagui83]

I have never realized it was the Metropolis riff until now! But I love that part too.

[@TomHellToPay]

Dude I honestly LOVE watching you play! Been following you since your 6:00 tutorial maybe 12 years ago? and just wanted to say it’s a pleasure to watch your videos; from the playing to the sound to how relaxed you are! Great stuff man, keep it all coming!!!

[@AAXplosion]

Thank you very much! :)

[@brett3877]

Ooooo drum solo at the end caught me completely off guard

[@JoeyMcNew-Drummer]

Man! This is spot on and as we session players here in the ville say, "That's ER Bro!" Keep up the good work, I was looking up an ole friend from Dream Theater that took over from Dave and noticed your video.

[@AAXplosion]

Thanks dude! Really appreciate it :)

[@JoeyMcNew-Drummer]

Awesome cover AAXplosion!! Man your drums sound so good! Are you using drumless tracks? if so, How did you find them?

[@AAXplosion]

I found them on KZbin :)

[@josvelgarcia719]

[@JohnPyroDrums]

I love DT! I support every drum cover of them! Nice style!!! Liked

[@clonemole]

Perfection!

[@fabiodias5527]

Also love to see you cover stuff adding more of your personal flare to it. Very tasteful drum changes you've made to the original track. You can definitely see you're having fun make it your own man. Impecable audio quality. Love getting new covers from you bro. Keep on rocking and can't wait to see you cover more Haken.

[@AAXplosion]

Yes I'm adding some of Mikes Live playing and a personal note. I don't want to play these songs 1 to 1. :)

[@chrisandrita2004]

Awesome job my friend 😁😁😁😁

[@KnownAsTheInconspicuous]

Thanks to the KZbin algorithm for recommending your cover, haha. You definitely nailed this one. :)

[@DerAbbel]

I like what I see, I love what I hear :-D Wenn du so weiter machst, ruft Dream Theater an und will alle Alben mit dir nochmal aufnehmen.

[@AAXplosion]

Wenn sie sich nen anderen Sänger suchen gerne 😂

[@user-zn4iv3jy3o]

[@MrBroncolinShows]

Yeiii I’m happy waiting for the next video... shall we dance?

[@sugayfitriafitria5016]

[@ing.gibranlv8459]

What a beautiful sound!

[@ing.gibranlv8459]

How many hours it took to shoot this perfectly?

[@AAXplosion]

@@ing.gibranlv8459 Recording this video took me three takes of the song. So about 40 minutes 😃

[@ing.gibranlv8459]

@@AAXplosion Wow, impresive!

[@bukeksiansu2112]

This prove how genius Mike Portnoy is.

[@andyh_music]

You’re incredible dude haha

[@ekris.aprilland]

Next dream Theater - the looking glass

[@KPDrums]

Incredible performance! How do you mix your drums?

[@inungnugroho8593]

mathias portnoy

[@AlbertJasonAlburo]

When I saw this guy playing drums. I thought he looked like Thomas Lang, one of the drummers who auditioned for Dream Theater.

[@wahyusantososym1582]

Good👍👍👍 generasion Portnoy

[@aloretoc]

How do you manage to get the songs without the drums? Another awesome cover

[@fabiodias5527]

Fucking A Mathias!! Beautiful cover as always man!!

[@draufgesch5215]

Mathias, wie immer, perfekt !!! Man könnte annehmen, du kloppst seit Anno Domini auf den Drums rum ... (aber wahrscheinlich ist dies nur so ein Hobby von Dir und so deprimiert es umso mehr;-)

[@logansmith1463]

As I was listening I was curious as to why the vocals sound different and I realized that it was taken from one of James' live performances. At least it sounds like it

[@AAXplosion]

no it is the album version.

[@alonzaharony4685]

You are amazing as always! But maybe next time it's worth looking for a better James Labrie performance. Or at least one where he actually sings in tempo and not cracks any window... 😅

[@Hababa2]

13 years ago you did a Dance of Eternity cover, then again 6 years ago, I think its time for a new one to show how much you've progressed, and of course, you have a much better recording setup.

[@Samsungdreameternity]

Dream Theater outcry please

[@Hockeyguy8541]

Is it just me or are the vocals just like ever so slightly off tempo?

[@buddyrevell9394]

2:57

[@gaborholtzer8784]

lol the end we shall dance

[@betobecerra]

Amazing!!
