Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere But Not Here “Live” (Reaction) Ok, I’m Sorry What?

[@neinstein-says]

This became my favourite song the moment I first heard it. Responsible for pulling me out of suicidal depression and for getting me away from an extremely toxic relationship. "Ever thought from here on in, your life begins and all you knew was wrong?" that's the lyric that fixed me, nice one Steve.

[@Silber7]

I can't claim that it did influence my life. But this song is something else. There is much music that is very well done, or one of its kind, or one could claim really spiritual. But when I hear this... even in its lyrical simplicity, its seemingly easy to explain structure... it feels so important. Special. Like a message, or maybe a destilled emotion, some kind of *meaning*, from another point of view, another world, another *possibility*. Even without trying to understand the meaning of the lyrics. Literal shivers and stuck breath. I can totally get how it helped you change - keep safe

[@willasacco9898]

@@Silber7 Well said - You can feel the song on a deep, instinctive level rather than an intellectual level. Somehow, the melodies and overall structure just work perfectly. This applies to many PT and SW solo songs.

[@jasonjenkins6373]

great to hear something resonate with you, it was all you. you just needed to hear one more small thing and you got sorted.

[@CruxalYT]

@@jasonjenkins6373 Isn't it brilliant how music can bring us to such realizations? I've had the same experience with this song and I can't quite say i'm out to the other side of the whole depression thing yet this song brilliantly captured my feelings during the time I needed to hear it the most and it's so important to me for that reason. Love when music just strikes you at the perfect time and place. Cosmic randomness at its finest :)

[@PuzzleboxMedia]

what an amazing way to interpret those lyrics. I always took it as a shock like hey, what you know is wrong... everything is different now. How will you deal? Scary! But your inerpretation is amazing. I love that people can take such colorful and amazing things from a song and they're all so different.

[@gokceyildirim8161]

i don't know why it's so satisfying to see strangers see what you love for the first time, but that's youtube.

[@MrKoolaidjam]

Fun fact: Mikael Akerfeldt of Opeth wrote the second solo, the one after the heavy part

[@Vaerdun]

Came here to say that :) seeing how these two great reactors love their Opeth. More PT would be incredible, I love seeing your reactions to this incredible band! Way Out Of Here (live in Tilburg) or Hatesong (live in Chicago) will have you scratching your head as to how can these people be this talented.

[@campe_0p525]

And played them too

[@tiernanrea1726]

Akerfeldt-Wilson.. the ultimate bromance. 😂

[@Vaerdun]

@@tiernanrea1726 oh yea :) you seen the Opeth (6 part) KZbin doc on their double album where they brought Steven in to produce? Really good hour to enjoy.

She understands them..... she really understands them on a different level..Bless you!

[@TRZPAnik]

Yeah...amazing

[@piotrkowalski451]

Steven Wlson,a Legend. This man devoted his entire life to Music. The most underestimated Creator of Art in our world. On the other hand I don't think he has ever cared about being recognized or appreciated.He is just...making a GREAT music.And that is the ultimate beauty of it.

The singer, Steven Wilson , has a solo career that is incredible. You NEED to watch ( the actual official video!!!!) For "Routine".... bring a box of tissues. Especially if you have kids.

[@revylokesh1783]

@@IvanRandomDude it's the hallmark of a progressive musician to never do the same stuff over and over again. SW is progressing. His new album might be pop, but it's still progressive. His really old stuff (before _In Absentia_ ) wasn't necessarily heavy either.

First heard this at age 75. I have listened to a lot of music over the years and consider this one of the best if not the best I have ever heard. I have listened to a lot of Steven Wilson's work and consider him a musical genius

[@ClearTheRubble7]

They've been around for a long time, but I only first heard of them about two years ago. Every time I hear a song by them I'm blown away.. I heard this song for the first time just now, and tears popped out of my eyes. Their latest released single, Harridan, is also fantastic. I've been listening to prog since I was a teenager in the mid-'70's, and Porcupine Tree reminds me of the days when I found listening to newly discovered music a great adventure that repeatedly blew my mind.

[@nickolayarabadzhiev2169]

I live in Bulgaria in Eastern Europe and I had the chance and the pleasure to watch Steven Wilson in Bratislava in February 10, 2019. Then once they reunited with PT I flew to Vienna to watch them. The two best gigs that I have ever been in my life!

[@DangBrent]

Guys this is why I think you should react to Opeth live, my suggestion is The Drapery Falls from the Lamentations DVD Here you can see Åkerfeldt really enjoy himself

[@phydauex]

Some of the most evocative music I've ever heard. Steve Wilson and crew always play to perfection live. The flow of ideas and harmonies just carry me away. Glad you all presented this.
