[@jameschapman8828]

I have to admit to my shame that Porcupine Tree completely passed me by first time around. I grew up with Pink Floyd, Rush, Marillion and These guys are seriously underrated. Absolute class live.

[@patrikmachac-z7e]

I do not agree that PT are somehow underrated. They are actually massive. Made Gavin Harrison as one of the best drummers. Made SW famous, etc.. Their music is not easist, so you cannot expect too much mainstrem there.

[@jackiehibbard3696]

Not underrated at all..

[@foobert]

James I get you. I'm gen-X and cut my teeth on the same stuff you did in the late 70s-early 90s (toss in Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant...) though I fell out of love with it around the late 90's / early 2000s. I think Ozric Tentacles (Jurassic Shift) may have been the last prog cd I bought in that era. Somehow I stumbled across PT and Steven Wilson maybe 6 years ago and was immediately blown away. Listened to everything I could find, live and studio. It's the classic prog combo of virtuosic musicianship that allows all band members space to jam together, independently, then tighten up, then rock out bombastically yet remain consistent to the context of the pieces, which are more often than not thematically interconnected. Anyways, the best modern prog brings me back to a long time ago, listening to Hemispheres, or Animals, or Selling England By The Pound on headphones in my room while studying in high school. Eerie feeling. Love the PT dual-lead-guitar Thin Lizzy style (sort of?) on this one too. Excuse the ramble :-) Peace.

[@Nickztx100]

It’s probably the most hauntingly captivating songs I have ever heard. It draws you in and you feel that there is no escape from its totally hypnotic repeating theme. The musicianship and musical phrasing are so good and when the key changes from melancholic minor half chords to full on major chords you know you have no choice but to listen to the very end of the song and then to repeat it many more times until you almost become part of the story of the song itself. There must be a help group for those who have fallen hopelessly in love with the Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson’s music, but I am not ready to be released from the spell he casts quite yet.

.....more for comedic purposes, but I am the biggest Gilmour fan this side of the Mississippi, and even I know Steven Wilson technically a better guitarist.

Hi all you beautiful people who listen to the music of Steven Wilson (and Porcupine Tree earlier)! I am new to his music but this guy is MY SAVIOR!!! Let me explain. I've been a listener of Progressive Rock for a few decades (born in '64) and I thought they'd all passed. But then a friend of mine introduced me to HIS music and I'm blown away!!!!! Finally here's someone who's taken up the torch, and I'm a happy camper!!!

[@reIONEre]

haven't you heard CHON or Liquid Tension Experiment?

[@BruceS1111]

+K. Runar Karlsson With you buddy. Dark Matter, Anesthetize, Glass Arm Shattering, and the sublime Lazarus. Yes, my friend, there is help for mankind in this music.

[@TheStevelargent]

Me too.

[@amittaneja8140]

Just want to see them live once so that I can die peacefully.

[@gazramang8645]

One day maybe...

[@dotXem]

+Amit Taneja Since Porcupine Tree is kinda in standby at the moment, won't happen soon. But yeah, they're awesome.

[@mazrio128]

I saw them Deadwing (this tour). Stood right by Gavin's kit whole time . Killer.

[@stellar1980]

+Amit Taneja So happy that I saw them live more than once...I don't think they're coming back after all Steven said in interviews about PT :(

[@MaazAhmed]

+Amit Taneja Not PT, but Steven Wilson is coming to India in October this year!!

[@RandomGuy12562]

apart from being a brilliant song, the video is really well shot too..the director knows which musician to show at which point..you can see where the music is coming from

[@avramnovorra]

Agreed

[@edhalfen7380]

First time listener here. Very impressed. Super well done and great high-level production. Unique and it would be hard for me to explain your music to someone else. I'd have to just tell them to listen and experience it. From melodic to contemplative to bone-crushing METAL...and then back again. Well done folks. I'm a 66-year old music lover and appreciator...Blessings...Ed

[@gr8guitarplayer]

Is the supermarket playing really good music, or am I just getting old? 54 yo here...loving music since before I could read...had to take the 45's (you know what I'm referring to!) to my aunt so she could tell me which side was the hit!

[@carminesassano6300]

Just discovered this song today. Totally blown away, I'm from the Floyd, and TOOL persuasion, but this band kicks ass.

[@LThill-ks2uz]

at least you're open to it, most everyone seems to be stuck in the music they heard in high school. I blame the music industry and radio for not opening our ears and minds to new genius, and there are many great newer bands although SW has been around awhile. this shit keeps you young

[@naiyaru]

Steven & PT always know how to hit me somewhere deep in my nervous system. This song is incredible.

[@Judy-yk7ev]

I can not get enough of this tune...awesome!!!

[@naiyaru]

@@Judy-yk7ev I totally understand!

[@shaunkelly9860]

I am an old prog fan, almost everything I like is at least 35 years old, but this band are great. Proper musicians - love it.

[@hasans.m.nayeem8220]

How I wish to see a concert with my love.

[@davidogorman7787]

As a huge Rush fan, it is just so easy to say that the parallels are uncanny. And it is so iconic that Alex played on one of their most amazing tunes and that all of them admired Porcupine Tree. High praise from one of the greatest prog rock bands ever.

[@prateeksharma9330]

When I listened the song for the first time, I was depressed, but I heared It with my earphones and that day changed my life for good, this song keeps me in peace, Thanks Porcupine Tree for create this masterpiece song

[@Ledones]

The exactly same thing happened to me. That's the reason I sent this to KZbin!

[@markeinsportnoy]

Thanks for sharing this, we hope help to other people that's suffering in silence

[@digletttexano678]

Awesome song I had missed this awesome artist but now I am discovering and digging his stuff 🤘

[@MariaDiazskn]

Never stop the car on a drive in the dark Never look for the truth in your mother's eyes Never trust the sound of rain upon a river Rushing through your ears Arriving somewhere but not here Did you imagine the final sound as a gun? Or the smashing windscreen of a car? Did you ever imagine the last thing you'd hear as you're fading out was a song? All my designs, simplified And all of my plans, compromised All of my dreams, sacrificed Ever had the feeling you've been here before? Drinking down the poison the way you were taught Every thought from here on in your life begins And all you knew was wrong? Did you see the red mist block your path? Did the scissors cut a way to your heart? Did you feel the envy for the sons of mothers tearing you apart?

[@Hellboundinmate]

You should be way up higher, had to scroll too far for this!

[@MariaDiazskn]

Depends on the place you are. For me it's the first one on the list.:))) As to being high(er), I always am. On life.:)))

[@Hellboundinmate]

I feel so happy to see the magnitude of positivity in you! :) Maybe it has just inspired me subconsciously!

[@MariaDiazskn]

Nik Don't believe in everything you hear. Or read. There's a reason why I like PT and SW.And it can only be darkness or despair.:))))

[@Hellboundinmate]

Pretty much the reason why i'm visiting these videos too. You may be in darkness, you maybe in despair, but that's only because you know the how it is different form light and contentment! :) You can only describe the shade "black" if you've seen the shade "white", and no matter what or how you feel inside, the true you is always described by how you present yourself! Atleast that's what i like to believe. :)

[@maddoxrover2862]

The haunting intro....the build up....the lead.....everything is done so precisely and perfect! Love this song

[@jimtzikis]

The transition at 8:22 is like finding the solution to complex problem...

[@shubhampradhan9151]

[@ronaldboreland4479]

Well well well... it is about time people caught on to Porcupine Tree... Where were you in 2005? Or 1994 I should say! The most underrated band ever!!! Enjoy the Majesty...😉

[@rhythmsInRain]

[@88omair]

Steven is a ridiculously underrated guitarist. One of my favourites

[@simes2112]

This is literally the first song I have listened to by PT. I feel like I am listening to a Genesis / Yes / Pink Floyd hybrid. I didn’t know anyone was still making music like this anymore. Then in the middle it got edgy and it made me think of Rush ... drums and second guitar sound. Awesome!

[@lynnkeegan8487]

They're back!!!!

[@chrisbenson4985]

I have left instructions for this to be played at my funeral celebration along with 'Last Chance to Evacuate...' and 'What happens now?' Both times I briefly met them in Seattle they were kind and welcoming. Some heroes are 100% the real deal.

I wish Porcupine Tree would get back together! It would be quite the experience to see them live. Truly a great band.

[@Alpanama]

9 years after and I still miss you in live....

[@tendershot]

along with "Creed - Who's got my back". Soul is rising!!!

[@daniele_93]

How can they be so perfectly matched with the studio version? I saw a lot of great live renditions from many bands but this one is just surreal.

[@UjjayaEthnoambient]

Do you really believe that a live track stays untouched ? if you still believe in father christmas go hear the fabulous live album of Judas Priest Unleashed in The East :-)

[@eduardoj.barcelogarcia220]

I saw these guys live back during this tour. He was all smiles. Probably because he plays in an awesome band that rocks live.

People always appreciate the bassist, the guitarist,the drummer but they forget the magical ambience created by Richard.. God level skills.💯💯

Is it just me or does this live recording have a clearer sound than the studio version? Either way, really impressive performance. This is the kind of song I can just listen to any day and it's just right.

[@probalsarker5877]

I really don't care if Porcupine Tree is like another Pink Floyd or not. The fact is that they are awesome. I am a musician, and I do not judge music only by their musical appearance and composition hence I judge by "which music makes me shiver in my spine". So my benchmark is 'shivering in spine'. This is the first song I ever listened of Porcupine Tree and it made my spine shiver. Great job Porcupine Tree. Love you.

[@brucemayberry8692]

WOW... This is the first song I've ever heard from this group. WOW, GREAT. Does Pink Floyd finally have a contender?

[@johnwhite5216]

Bruce Mayberry I first got into PT back in the mid-90's when I read a review of one of their albums that simply stated: "What Pink Floyd SHOULD sound like now". And I've loved them ever since. Unfortunately it's sounding more and more like Steve Wilson may never do another PT album.

[@brucemayberry8692]

John White Thanks John...Can you suggest a few good CDs by them?

[@johnwhite5216]

"The Sky Moves Sideways" is the album I referenced above. In my opinion when they sounded most like Pink Floyd. "In Abstentia" would be another great choice. In my opinion when they were most "prig-metal". But you really can't go wrong with any of them.

[@johnwhite5216]

"prog-metal"

[@astakachupika2560]

Bruce Mayberry There is also this song Time flies which is strongly inspired by the dogs from Pink Floyd anyway this band is a gem

[@GitGudders]

I was listening to this song during my adolescence in repeat, everyday, every night... AND THE TITLE ALWAYS CAUGHT ME. I knew I'm arriving somewhere but not here. Back then the place I wanted to reach is that place i'm in right now. Married the cutest and sweetest girl one can ever have. a cat in our home. a gaming setup. today I'm drinking beers in a sunday night jumping randomly into this song, listening to this masterpiece and saying to mysef '' I did it ''.
