I lost my wife of almost 20 years to Cancer on 09/12/22.... When we first met I took her to a Queensryche concert in Albuquerque,NM. That was night we both really understand that we were soul mates I guess... And I held her when they started playing this song, and we were inseparable since than. It was early 2020 we found out she had Cancer and because of Covid it was hard to get into a hospital for treatment. Two years went by with very little medical visits till early 2022 and things took a turn for the worse and did my very best to be there for her as much as I could. I even quit my job just to take her to her Chemotherapy treatment and stuff. I could tell by her physical appearance that her body was getting frail but to me she is always that beautiful Navajo woman that I fell with regardless of her physical appearance. She left us ( our kids and I)! in the early morning hours of 09/12/22. And eversince than I would dream of her and till a month later she came to me once again in my dream and told me she is home and gonna go to sleep and eversince than I felt peace and Comfort. Rest easy my love Tawnya I love and miss you tremendously 😭

Stories like this break my heart so bad and wish there could be some miracle to bring them back.

My 5 yr old grandson lost his mother last year. I'm crying, thinking of the loss he will have for the rest of his life. I can only hope that Anjelica is watching over her son. He's upstairs sleeping, preschool in the morning -we try to keep a routine but, the loss is always there. I keep a collage of pictures of Anjelica and Cam at his eye level. So he sees them every day but, those pictures will never change. She's not here. God, the pain.

[@dilligaf1009]

My mother died on Valentine's day. I had listened to Queensryche for a while. When I had to move her car this cd was in the player, on this song. It was then that I really listened to the lyrics and it literally became a part of my soul. I love you mom!

[@devanbyarsreynolds9613]

It’s 2024, and I’m 46. I fell in love with this song upon first hearing it at 15. When I hear the soft acoustic guitar intro, no matter what I’m doing or where I’m at, I prepare myself, because each and every time, without fail, when the strings join in at 1:11, the tears start flowing. It is beautiful. It is magical. It brings out so many feelings at once. This song is a therapy session. It’s the song I will tell my sons to listen to when they’re thinking of me after I’m gone. It is a masterpiece. There’s nothing remotely close to this in todays music and never will be.

Only those who were fortunate to have witnessed MTV during the 90's can appreciate how much the world needs the 90's back.

[@bretwhitmore8855]

Not just the 90s, Sharon. I was a young G.I. when MTV first came out in the 80s. Amazing we thought ourselves so modern and sophisticated back then, when we were all still living in the analog age and finding nothing whatsoever wrong with it. Now we live in the nearly-fully digital age, and most of us old enough to have learned it from the 'Old School' are fluent in both 'languages'. But I can also state firmly that what came along with this overdependence on the digital universe, our having flushed things that truly mattered in exchange for hollow promises, artificial urgencies, and too much distance between ourselves to the point we're strangers and enemies, give me 30 or 40 years ago in a heartbeat. Life was vastly better then... for ALL of us. And I'm old enough to be able to make a clear comparison.

This song is often interpreted as exploring the theme of lucid dreaming, a state in which the dreamer is aware that they are dreaming and may have some degree of control over their dream. The term "Silent Lucidity" itself seems to give the idea of a peaceful, serene state within a dream. Geoff Tate has mentioned in interviews that the song was inspired by his experiences with lucid dreaming and his interest in the potential for dreams to offer a form of escape or solace. The lyrics encourage the listener to embrace their dreams and find comfort within them, even in difficult times.

My mother died December 21st, 1990. I have ALWAYS known that these are her words, conveyed to me through the music of the one band that I worshipped, in the moment. She knew EXACTLY how to convey her message....through them. These words are all hers, vicariously, through the open channel of DeGarmo's mind. I have no doubt. 34 years later, NOTHING has changed. It is forever solidified in the lyrics of this masterpiece. They are, without a doubt, perfection, on every conceivable level. Their talent is God given. (If such an entity, indeed, exists) GT has the instinctive command of his voice , combined with a fluid empathy, that hits, unsuspectingly, all at once. 'Overpowering' is an understatement, at best. In this, is where the brilliance lies. He knows where, when, and how to place all of it, perfectly, so that the music and the lyrics blend seamlessly, creating a nirvana between music and words, that draws the listener in, which then becomes a sort of hypnotic suspension between the two, that is the perfect blend of elation and satisfaction that can only be undertaken by HIS command of his craft. The man is platinum! DeGarmo, Wilton, Jackson and Rockenfield....there are no words to describe the limitless heights of your talent - both individually, and collectively. You are all beyond what any words could touch. I mean this, in ALL sincerity. You have ALL CLEARLY reached the heights of which you only once imagined you would. I, for one, am eternally grateful that you all came together at just the right time, and sprinkled your gold dust over the world of the music scene. It has NEVER gone unnoticed. Not for a single minute. Top shelf. Without the entirety of THIS PERFECT UNION of musical talent, it would all be futile. Your collective contribution is forever immortalized in sound. Together, you are sheer perfection. Period. God, how I miss you all!!!! I'm sure I speak for millions, in my sentiment. LOVE IS FAR GREATER THAN INDIFFERENCE!!! To my musical heroes: If you never reunite to play another note together, it's okay; but, PLEASE.....rememeber the sheer brilliance you have created, for those of us who love you, still....always, and forever. We are grateful for the memories that you have given us, and each other. We beg of you to reconcile any indifference that you may harbor, and celebrate the wonder that is, was, and will forever be the ORIGINAL Queensryche. You, alone, are a symphonic masterpiece. WE LOVE YOU, ALWAYS!!!! Thank you, a million-and-a-half times, again!

Music like this needs to keep living.

[@MrGconstantine1972]

Amen!!!🎉

[@benjaminlaygoiii2171]

Random realization in January 2021. How ridiculously beautiful this song is. Epic.

[@RandomFueldotCom]

This is one of those rare songs that hits every chord. Has the exact balance of melody, lyrics, and performance.

[@mariocampa4647]

Geoff's performance here is amongst the greatest ever recorded. Actually, this entire album is.

[@Siobi_69]

Holy crap...when is the last time I heard this song? No AI!!! Talented musicians and singers

[@joelyrossi4905]

Dare I say this is possibly one of most beautifully written and produced songs of my lifetime? Still gets me all these years later.

[@JustMe-es9ww]

About every six months, I come back here to read the comments. It's about the only time I smile and cry at the same time. It still amazes me how one song can help so many people during one of the worst times of their lives. Under a different name, I was virtually the first one who said I dedicated this song to my nephew, who had just recently died (at that time). I didn't know others would be able to follow suit and let some of that pain go by sharing it with all of us: Strangers who have become an extended family through a song. God bless those who have gone ahead, and help those of us who were left behind.

Just Me Amen! Me too, every year on my husbands birthday, our anniversary, and his DOD. Sometimes I just need to get in the car, listen to this, and cry like a baby. It’s very therapeutic.

[@daisyhdz69]

@Just Me My daughter transitioned two and a half months ago and this song is all I can listen to.... I've always loved it and now it's even more special to me. It definitely is one of the greatest songs of all time. 🙌

[@sexysergeant123]

Daisy Hernandez I’m sorry for your loss, I’m sure they’re playing this in Heaven.

[@daisyhdz69]

@@sexysergeant123 Thank you. I'm sorry for your loss as well. I'm sure they are. Many blessings always to you and your loved ones.

BEAUTIFUL SONG

[@paulocavalcanti5330]

One of the most beautiful songs that have ever been written.

[@thebadluckboys]

My sister's favorite band. She had their autographs tattoed on her wrist. She went to so many meet and greets. Said everyone in the band were the nicest dude's ever. She passed away two days ago. RIP Diane "Tess" Schiele.

A day after my birthday :( Sorry for you loss, I can’t imagine...

[@natasjacosat8271]

So sorry

[@alessandramiranda4241]

Sorry....

[@christineappenzeller2466]

This is ethereal. I'm completely swept away into another realm. Geoff's voice is one of the best.

[@Steve46466]

Somehow my mom, in her late 70's and early 80's, lached onto this song and insisted that we play it for her funeral. Well, she died in her early 80's and we played it while sprinkling the ashes in a river near her favorite childhood home. There was an amazing shower of heather that fell while this song was played. I took that as a sign that she was well pleased with our efforts.

[@carolynjohnson2326]

I have said I want this song at my funeral since 1992. Seriously.

[@carribishop]

Awwww bless your heart! I'm sorry for your loss 😢. Thank you for sharing that story💕

[@meds92270]

Wow. How amazing. She was definitely with you 🖤🦇

[@johnbarron681]

Thats deep, I can't find words God bless!

[@unclegrease1]

OMG your so wonderful to share that with us!!!

[@ronbridges678]

I have fought for Lucidity for years and this song has always been a place to come for calm and peace!! I have sever PTSD from the beatings I took as a child and being sexually abused. I LOVE THIS SONG!!! Be blessed everyone!!!!

[@laceysagnella9127]

Ron, I am very deeply sorry that you experienced such nightmares growing up !!! But anytime you want to get away from those thoughts, you know all you have to do is replay this song and hopefully it brings you comfort !!! I really do !!

[@adrianpalacios2543]

God be with you I'm an Iraq war veteran with PTSD and victim of verbal abuse as a kid, hey fuck em those that hurt us. My father verbally abused me funny thing is he never did shit bad alcoholic, consequence of that is I rarely speak to him, that's what happens when you act stupid.

[@AnEnemyOfTheLie]

You're not alone and you are deeply loved. 💛

[@mariag5306]

Me too and I've been through the same abuse as you along with an attempt on my life. Hugs

[@nataliehitchmough2482]

I'm so very sorry you had such an awful childhood, it's it's left you with such severe PTSD; I think you must be very strong & courageous to have it this far. If you want to, there are qaulafied (oops) phycologists or psychicists (oops) who may be able to help you deal with the PST if it's impacting your life. I truly wish you the peace, healing & happiness you deserve. Thank you for your encouragement to others; may you also be blessed with JOY & wellbeing! Compassionately, Natalie Hichmough :)

[@susantravis8537]

This song plays over the ending (Part 8) of Nine Perfect Strangers, which premiered tonight. Such a perfect & beautiful choice! Haven’t heard it in over 30 years!! How I love this song!!

[@kristenherman4609]

That's why I'm here. Perfect song to end that show!

[@matthewadolph51]

I just watched it and I have the song on my playlist now

[@tessafailen638]

That ending thou!! Mind blown!!!!

[@daniellebuie8098]

Truly, I was about to be a bit underwhelmed by that finale, and then this song started playing and suddenly it was one of the most perfect series endings ever. 🖤🎼

[@josehinojosa9752]

Same here! I heard this at the end of Supernatural after not hearing it for around 10 years. Brought back the joy and nostalgia of the 90’s for me 🙂

[@ChrisTian-rm7zm]

When my mother died 7 years ago, I often listened to this song, it was very comforting.
