For me, Secret Story is the finest modern record of my lifetime, and I'm approaching my 9th decade. What lasting legacy for this genius, Pat Metheny.

[@angelahenson5831]

I totally agree with you, Judy. From the first time I heard it over three decades ago, it has touched my heart and mind in ways that I cannot describe. Pure genius. Yes, it is a lasting legacy.

[@francescogargioni9385]

I am a musician myself , and believe me this is a masterpiece that served many as an inspiration, myself included....it brings different emotions to evryone and that is exactly what it supposed to do......Thank you Pat....

[@Z24BL2]

In one century from now, Mozart, Beethoven and Pat Metheny will be side to side in schools of music.

[@charlesa.morgan8690]

Pat Metheny is the most prolific jazz artist of our times. One of the best musicians in world history. His music will live forever.

One of our greatest composers of the 20th century.

[@GuidoTramontanoGuerritore]

I've been listening to this absolute masterpiece for 30+ years and never tired of it. Gives me goosebumps every time. Secret Story has been a life-changing album for me.

[@franzjosephamrein2663]

I have seen that life in Zûrich Switzerland one of the best concert i have ever seen life even to mention one piece of music above the three tops. And the sound was such beautiful life such good quality

[@fairweatherbird]

Pat Metheny has had a lot of great peaks in his career but this could be the all time topper. Such a fully realized orchestral masterpiece. Secret Story is immortal-each composition a joy to hear.

[@franzjosephamrein2663]

You are so right my friend

[@alessandroveneziani6271]

Masterpiece of a CD that has only Masterpieces. No thing in Secret Stories is less than perfect.

[@gloriaortiz1227]

It's true! The beginning of the song, resembles the mother womb, silent receptive and then it erupts with the explosion of life or heaven, it's a masterpiece❤️❤️❤️❤️

Bach, Beethoven, Metheny!!

[@jorgeluisgarcia1006]

Indeed!! ;-)

[@bpagan7781]

One of the most Wonderful songs ever played. So mush emotion as it builds. Brings tears to these old eyes.

[@wilsgetchell6420]

This music is what emotions sound like......When I saw/heard this performed live...I wept

[@laumur302]

Yes, I do weep too. This was one of my husbands all time favorite Metheny productions, and he owned them all. Saw MANY concerts beginning in 1978. Sadly my husband became depressed and took his life in 2014. This music always reminds me of him in a sad yet beautiful way.

[@wilsgetchell6420]

Death can take a life, but it cannot take a love..........

[@jorgeluisgarcia1006]

so sorry for that, Laurel. Secret Story makes remember an old and lost love too...

[@jeffreypritchard6102]

Listened to this last night with headphones. The snare drum is a freakin' nice touch. Such a beautiful piece of music from one of the very best albums to come out of the 90's.

[@Turboy65]

If you haven't heard this selection played live by the Group, you haven't heard it. They play it with HUGE dynamic contrasts. The drums are played much louder than the rhythm section, and when Pat solos on synth guitar it's almost earsplitting. This video's audio recording is a pale shadow of what this sounds like played live.

[@bradobroadfoot]

If this is the music on the way to heaven, sign me up

[@skylo10]

This song, is the greatest song. It reflects birth and death. I live with it. Forever and ever! The truth will always be there. Love is here. Until death. Thank you, Pat M.

[@stigmadsen]

Heavenly Brillant - takes me through so many emotions and relaxes me at the same time. The whole album is one of Pat's best ones :-)

[@MaxMax-pv9tk]

I "met" Pat by chance, during my first trip to Spain: I was under the Pyrenees at night and my friend played a TDK (P.M. Are Going with Me). Since that day the musical journey has never ended and his music still excites me today. I have seen 12 concerts, I met him, I listened and listened to everything that is related to him and is not, and it will never be enough! Thanks Pat !!!

[@joanguillemponsmarroquin8530]

This song makes me cry, why? I don't know it

[@quicosanchez3119]

composición, producción, técnica y virtuosismo alineados con el perdón, por ejemplo. composition, production, technique and virtuosity aligned with forgiveness, for example?.

[@skylo10]

One of the best songs he 's ever written and performed.

[@guitarzann]

when i saw this show in 93 at massey hall in toronto, this lead brought tears to my eyes and still does, one of the most flavorful sounds he puts out.

[@juanhuaiquipan8755]

Esta versión en vivo me retrotrae al instante más doloroso de mí vida, la cruel enfermedad y posterior partida de mí padre. Después de estar con él casi a diario me dormía escuchando ésta gran obra musical...el "solo" de guitarra sacaba de mí por instantes el gran dolor de ver cómo mi viejito se apagaba...gracias Pat por tan bella música.

[@andremartel381]

The strength, power and integrity of the Metheny/Mays collaboration is what made the PMG so unique and formidable.

[@rebeccastone3301]

I’ve seen the PMG live every year since 1977. Broke my heart when Lyle passed. Each and every song is part of the journey.

[@stevethrapp2660]

It's amazing enough to watch Pat's magic and to know what a genius he is to have written most all of these beautiful masterpieces.

Absolutely stunning.I saw him perform this live in the Hult Center in Eugene which an acoustically perfect concert.I agree no words and it then as every time I hear burned into my Soul❤❤

[@thomasdixon1369]

I saw this concert in 1993 in Pat's home town of Kansas City (he's actually from Lee's Summit). They played the entire album. This piece and "Tell Her You Saw Me" literally left the audience speechless. Incredible.

[@eleonoradini2371]

English is not my mother language and I don't know how to fully explain why this song fills my heart and my soul every time I listen to it. So I am here once again listening to this amazing masterpiece and I am sure you understand

[@PeteS-ht1wc]

Oh I understand completely!! I bought the Secret Story when it was released based on the album cover artwork alone never having seriously listened to Pat Metheny. Like the many PM followers who post here and elsewhere, I can’t help but gush about PM in general and Secret Story specifically every chance I get. This work is the most pleasing to ever hit my ear. I’ve listened to it regularly since I fell for the cover art 32 years ago, and it still raises the hair on the back of my neck. There are not enough superlatives in my vocabulary to convey all I feel inside about Secret Story and Pat Metheny. And this is just one of the albums from his gargantuan library. I can’t say enough. He is a gift from God and a true American treasure.

[@laurieknight5945]

Every note and every musician in this song is incredibly awesome.such a powerful song .

[@mpena337]

De loin mon morceau préféré de Pat, même si j’aime encore plus la version enregistrée dans l’album. Pat transmet des émotions dans ce morceau comme nul autre, c’est le meilleur

[@jorgeluisgarcia1006]

Igual para mi, esta y Last Train Home son mis piezas preferidas. Gracias por tu comentario!!

[@elisab1737]

Ogni brano nasce da un'unica inesauribile fonte che è Metheny. Egli è al mondo per questo scopo ...infondere positività all'anima. Tanti ricordi ho del PMG che conservo in fondo al mio cuore.... Grazie a Lyle Mays r.i.p.

[@rachelsimms599]

Incredible. Pat Metheny has soothed my soul since I wad 14 and now I am 33. His music has gotten me through grieving and the worst of life storms and has helped me celebrate the best moments too. I played Minuano when I got my spinal block for my emergency delivery of my only child. I feared nothing as long as I listen to his music.

[@contosdopalhaco]

Quem vir aqui o timbre incrível inicia em 5:43 Porém à música é incrível desde o início 0:01 Amo essa música❤

[@erobinidcf]

PAT & PMG STILL LEAVES ME SPEECHLESS PURE BRILLIANCE . I LISTEN TO PAT et al EVERYDAY HIS MUSIC IS THE ELIXIR OF LIFE !!! djej

[@Turboy65]

This composition, played live, is DYNAMIC and exciting and wonderful like few others. It doesn't ever have the impact in a recording that the live performance does. It's meant to have an enormous dynamic contrast between the soft and loud passages, something that's just not really there on the recording. Live, it's thrilling when the soft rhythm is punctuated by full force drumbeats, and then the synth lead line comes in at an even greater volume level still, almost earsplitting. Being at the Group concert for this album was fantastic. But of all of it, I remember this song played live above all others. It was EPIC.

El día que pase por taquilla..quiero que suene esta música..amor infinito PMG

[@Hatmatrix]

Everytime I listen to this song, I think he had been touched by God when writing this, whatever it could mean.

[@JohnGeorgeHill]

Check his website. Look at the scholars he cites. Pat is known for not believing in any of that. Doesn't mean he doesn't know how to dig deep for music like this.

[@Marcin-ji6su]

To me, he was touched by Dave Gilmour. From 5:48 it sounds like Pink Floyd's Sorrow

[@TheFpCassini]

@@JohnGeorgeHill There's not necessarily a contradiction. "Touched by God" could be synonymous with "digging deep", " the Muse expressing itself through Pat" etc. Atheism was a rational rebuke to superstitious God belief, but now we can move on to a post atheistic acknowledgement of God as Mystery.

[@susanjohnson2068]

Good to know someone older than me (70) likes PMG😉. I like Pat but please don’t forget Lyle. He was a force of nature on the ivories. I guess good music at any age. I remember my late Dad who was career Army officer bought A Teddy Pendergast cd and Steely Dan Goucho cd. You could have knocked me over with a feather!!

Thus particular piece was written for the Montreal jazz ballet ensemble and played live in 1989 thé the ballet company dancing a choreography to it. A truly magical moment. I have it on VHS as they aired it on TV shortly after.

This … not thus. Forgot to mention it was not part of the original Secret story album; but rather on the re-issue that included a couple more pieces… 😊
