Queensryche Reaction - Silent Lucidity (First Time)!!!

[@MisterPoppy-sc1sj]

ONE of the best singer in universe

[@pennysilvey8868]

I’ve watched this reaction many times, simply because it was my request and my name was mentioned. That made me smile. Enjoy your reactions, and I think you are a very nice lady. I would like to suggest another by Queensrÿche, and this one is actually a true “a little harder” song than the ballad silent lucidity. The Lady Wore Black, live in Japan 1984. Get to see a little bit more of their progressive rock, and certainly more of Geoff Tate’s legendary vocals. He doesn’t get the credit he deserves for them. In his prime, he was in my opinion one of the best in the world.

[@davidbenson3782]

Treat your ears to an explosion of sound by listening to the studio version. I think you'll enjoy it.

[@DLynn]

I'm gonna do it tonight before bed, lol! Thank you!😁🤟

[@jasonburns6307]

Definitely studio will amaze you

[@LD-yx8ld]

Agree 100%. Studio version is amazing

[@jasonburns6307]

@@LD-yx8ld not sure what it is about that song, but it really gets to me.

[@woodywoodman2319]

On LP if possible! Like with Boston's first album... there will NEVER be a Better sounding album Ever... than that! CD's dont do it justice! Geoff's voice makes the world Turn! Unreal range... one of the Most unappreciated Rock singers ever!

[@JohnSmith-cm6tv]

Unplugged version doesn't even scratch the surface of the studio version. The orchestra makes a HUGE diff.

[@DLynn]

I ended up listening to the studio version, and you're right...it's stunning!😁

@@DLynn it is a truly beautiful song.

[@firecracker8071]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@Mad9977]

one of the most emotional Metal songs ever written =)

[@pennysilvey8868]

I’m so stoked you did my request!! Thanks!! If you want to hear Geoff stretch his vocals check out Queen of the Ryche, Or I Don’t Believe in Love, or anything from Operation Mindcrime. It’s really some of their best stuff! Thanks again D! Love you!❤️❤️

[@DLynn]

Hey Penny! I'm so happy you enjoyed it! Thank you for the suggestion...I would have never listened to this band before, lol! I'll check those others out, too! Love ya!❤

[@Mad9977]

Operation Mindcrime, once heard never forgotten =)

[@firecracker8071]

Damn he's gorgeous

[@albertlemont5471]

So glad you did the unplugged live version. You should listen to the whole show. It is amazing.

[@DLynn]

Thank you...I'll try to get to it!

[@soundbreak7]

this whole unplugged performance was great , should checkout , the killing words , from this performance

[@wichitadisciple9874]

Check out: Queensryche Take Hold Of The Flame Live in Tokyo He has one of the best voices I've ever heard.

[@DLynn]

Hey @Wichita Disciple! Thank you for your suggestion! It will take me awhile to get to it, I will!😁

[@brettwerkmeister9829]

Amen. Beautiful child. Love you

[@Callsign-Blade_RunnerSG]

This song is about a child trying to deal with the grief of losing a loved one, done so through the process of dream control. This song is the “baby” of guitarist Chris DeGarmo.

[@johnnyfive7140]

Love how informative you are. Geoff is a legend.

[@DLynn]

Thank you! I like being informed on bands and stuff, just enough, before reacting!😁

[@Applecornflakes]

These guys enjoyed their popularity during a time when the grunge movement was quickly kicking heavy metal bands out the door. Their talent was out of this world

[@farrellschultz1111]

In actuality in the age of ballads they took it a slightly different direction. The song is actually more of a lullaby, if you watch the official video you will see it's about a child experiencing the loss of someone close to them and it's a song to comfort them telling then they can be the master of their dreams. It is a very pretty song.

[@toddriley5021]

Nice reaction,Queensryche is one of my favorite progressive rock bands...youd like operation mindframe,Empire,Rage for order,the Warning...all great albums!!! Oh yeah and you're really cute.

[@donaldwilcox9006]

If you want to hear Geoff Tate and Queensryche in their prime and a perfect live performance that is typical of the group. Listen to Take Hold of The Flame recorded live in Japan in 1984.

[@DLynn]

Thank you!

[@ChristineBroughton]

Geoff Tate he is a amazing singer 👍❤️

[@jgreer6161]

D. Lynn....I've never heard of these guys and I should have, but back in the 80's, I was listening to Michael Jackson, ELO, Donna Summer and Whitney Houston. Going to clubs...didn't hear this kind of music. The most daring I got was listening to Pink Floyd! Ha! Thanks for sharing! Hope all is well in your world. 😊

[@DLynn]

Hey @Janis Greer! I heard of them, but I was never into the heavy metal scene! This song was decent...I'm curious what the heavier stuff is like, but I agree with your playlist, lol! All's well here...you take care, lady! Thank you for watching!😁❤😘

[@bobbrown7155]

Dee I'm running out. Of adjectives, describing you, so thank you for all the hard work you put into your reaction, God bless, see on next reaction,

[@DLynn]

Lol...thank you @Bob Brown...stay cool, daddio!😎❤

[@watchtheskies]

Hi D. Lynn, have a listen to the studio version with it's orchestral backing, it's awesome :)

[@DLynn]

I got the chance to watch the original music video...and you're right! I like both versions, though. Thank you!😁

[@marthamasden7573]

The video of is also awesome with the violins , you should watch that, there's more to this song ❤️

[@davidsanders5788]

YOU NEED TO HEAR THE STUDUO VERSION

[@DLynn]

I'm gonna check it out now, @David Sanders 😁

[@davidsanders5788]

@@DLynn the orchestra gives it a much bigger sound not heavy just bigger. In my opinion

[@davidsanders5788]

D. Lynn let me know what you think. Please

[@DLynn]

@@davidsanders5788 I see what you mean... That was pretty epic! And the orchestra gave it a fuller sound. Really good!

[@robertsimmons3336]

Totally with you on missing the music on music television. Unplugged was a great show!

[@DLynn]

I do miss Unplugged! And 120 Minutes! I even miss VH1 playing videos...I guess that's not important to these companies anymore...sad☹

[@pennysilvey8868]

I keep listening to this reaction over and over and finding things I want to comment on! The studio version is as beautiful as this, but with an orchestra. It’s worth a listen. Their harder stuff where you get the “grrr” from are some of the songs I mention in my previous comment. Also the album Rage for Order is amazing. Empire is another good one to listen to. Geoff has one of the most underrated voices in rock music. He’ll blow your mind. Hope you check those out! Thanks again!💜

[@DLynn]

Hey girl! I did finally listen to the studio version, and it was just as beautiful! I also noticed the orchestra...a perfect touch! I must say again that this surprised me, and it wasn't what I expected!😁 I will check those other songs out...thank you!❤🤟

[@planojag595]

Glad that you liked this epic song by Queensryche which was the breakthrough song from their best album imo. While my older brothers loved their earlier stuff like Operation Mindcrime I didn’t and fell in love with the band when they released their Empire album. Please check out other songs from that album such as Best I Can, Another Rainy Night (Without You), Jet City Woman, Empire, and Anybody Listening. Geoff Tate was one of the best singers in Hard Rock!!

[@goofball3236]

helloooo from wa state hope everyone is safe out there

[@frankleemartin54]

Yes, the studio version has a small orchestra playing with it and they play electric guitars but they only accent the strings and are played in harmony which softens the sound more.

[@breezykey87]

Hey, D. Lynn! Yes! One of my favorites! I'm so happy you did this reaction.❤ I remember when MTV played their first video! So many nights I'd sit and watch music videos for hours, excited to see the new videos! So many wonderful memories! Do they still play videos? 🤔 lol It's such a beautiful song and this is the first time I'm hearing this version. I love how you give us a run down on some of the details before you listen. So classy! Thanks for the awesome reaction! Oh! Nice heavy metal rawr! 😁 💛Laura

[@DLynn]

Hey Laura! Thank you for watching! I did like the unplugged version, and I also listened to the studio one as well...both are great, just, you know, the studio sound is epic with an orchestra and all.. but yeah, this was different and I liked it! Yes, I loved watching MTV and VH1...I don't think either plays vids anymore. It's so sad...oh, and I need you to tell me about the "heavy metal rawr" cuz I'm dumb, lol! Thanks again!😁❤

[@breezykey87]

Sorry, it was more of a "garr"! lol When you were describing what you thought might happen in the studio version. It's at the 10:22 mark of the video. 😁

[@breezykey87]

You're not dumb... stop that. 😉

[@DLynn]

Lol...I got it now! Thank you...and I just feel like I'm not down with the lingo everyone uses. I try to be current, but sometimes I fail 😁 you're awesome!😘

Well, thank you! Lol Don't feel bad, I don't know most of the lingo either! I am going to go through your reaction videos this weekend and watch as much ad I can. I really enjoy your professionalism. Have a great night!! Don't work too hard! 🖐😴

[@volbeatrules6528]

Great band, great song, great reaction! If you want to hear their versatility, listen to something off of Operation Mindcrime. I recommend “I don’t believe in love”. It’s a little harder but awesome vocals and music! The whole album is a story, too complex to get into, but pretty entertaining. Thanks D!

[@DLynn]

Well thank you for the suggestion! I really think I could get into this band... Can't wait to get to it (it'll be awhile, tho)!😁👍

[@bevil4aday]

Juat stumbled upon your channel D. Lynn. Nice reaction. If you can, don't know if copyright will allow it on a studio version or not, maybe if you pause it will. But I would love to see how you react to Queensryche songs Another Rainy Night, The Thin Line and Jet City Woman. All off the Empire album.

[@DLynn]

Hi! Thank you for the suggestions! I'll definitely put them on my list, and try at least one! Thank you for checking my channel out!😁

[@jgordon5316]

Thought about you today as I passed through, hoped you were rockin it and enjoying the rain. These guys always joke in interviews how they are a hard rock group but mostly known for this....epic irony.

[@DLynn]

who'd have thought? I did like this one, and I'll probably check more of them out! Thanks for thinking of me, lol! I always rock out... I can do without the rain tho.😁

[@SuperBobby1956]

Unplugged shows their talent. But the Original re-mastered version will put you in the Dream Geoff's singing about.

[@Quarks_Bar]

If you would like to check out a truly haunting song, I highly recommend ROADS TO MADNESS. Unfortunately, no Live version does justice to the studio version. After you hear it, I think you'll understand how damn near impossible those notes he hits on the record. His high notes WILL ring your ears unlike anything you've ever heard

[@timprice5747]

You will love the studio version.

[@DLynn]

Heard it, and BOOM! You're right...loved it!😁👍

[@SamuelDavidDeLuce]

I enjoy the studio version better

[@CourtneyJones1979bird]

I know this is an old reaction, I'm a little late to the party🥳, but if you have not yet listened to the studio version of this song, then you absolutely are missing out because this is the greatest rock ballad ever created and it's beautiful whether it's live unplugged or straight from the record. It's my favorite Queensrýche song and probably one of my favorite songs ever...ever!☯️ ☮Much Łove💖, Bird 🐦

You're welcome! Now that I have your attention, I have a request of my own from same group! Queensryche 'wanna get close to you', if you don't mind doing it. I've checked to see if you've done it already or anyone else at that. Couldn't find any reactions, so you'll be the 1st if you're up for it! Pretty please! Lol 😆

[@scorpiuslyon194]

This was actually the song that got me interested, and made me become a fan especially for the lead singer's voice. Geoff Tate

[@neilmartin99]

Studio version. Enjoy kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJnEpWCuirZpmtk Hush now don't cry Wipe away the teardrop from your eye You're lying safe in bed It was all a bad dream Spinning in your head Your mind tricked you to feel the pain Of someone close to you leaving the game of life So here it is, another chance Wide awake you face the day Your dream is over, or has it just begun? There's a place I like to hide A doorway that I run to in the night Relax child, you were there But only didn't realize it and you were scared It's a place where you will learn To face your fears, retrace the years And ride the whims of your mind Commanding in another world Suddenly, you hear and see This magic new dimension I will be watching over you I am gonna help you see it through I will protect you in the night I am smiling next to you, in silent lucidity Visualize your dream Record it in the present tense Put it into a permanent form If you persist in your efforts You can achieve dream control Dream control How's that then, better? Hug me If you open your mind for me You won't rely on open eyes to see The walls you built within Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin Living twice at once you learn You're safe from pain in the dream domain A soul set free to fly A round trip journey in your head Master of illusion, can you realize Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but I will be watching over you I am gonna help you see it through I will protect you in the night I am smiling next to you, in silent lucidity

[@DLynn]

Aw...thank you for the link and the lyrics!😁

[@drew65sep]

Whew, this one is a "heavy hitter" for me...waking up in the middle of the night to the cries of my little one (she's not so little anymore, being that she's a senior at Marshall University) having dreams and nightmares. She didn't understand what was happening to her in the dark, and I would try to explain just what dreams and nightmares are. That there was no reason to be scared because they aren't real. Those who are parents will understand what I'm getting at...

[@DLynn]

I'm not a parent, but I was the kid that my parents had to comfort after nightmares...I understand. That's sweet, and this song was surprisingly good (I wasn't sure about it)!

[@MacPro8CoreMan]

You should now react to Queen of the Reich! This is one of the first recordings but the late 70's early 80's Heavy Metal vibe is there by the truckload. I grew up in Portland OR and saw these guys before they were big any a gig at a small club. I bought the EP from the trunk of one of the guys cars after the show! Awesome band! Cheers

[@DLynn]

Hello! That's cool you saw them before the fame... they seem really down-to-earth! Thank you for your suggestion...it'll take me awhile to get to it, but I will!😁👍

Have you heard The Sound of Silence? It is and older sound originally by Paul Simon. But I like the version done by the band Disturbed. Every hair on your body will stand up!

Great reaction D. Lynn. Just a little constructive criticism: The background music playing while you’re talking is distracting. You are very captivating and really don’t need it. 🙂

[@DLynn]

Maybe I can turn it down? I just thought it gave my vids "something", instead of music only coming from the reaction itself. But I appreciate that, and your compliment as well...thank you!😁👍

[@dannybaker4641]

Another Rainy Night.

[@timlamb9428]

If I understand the concept correctly lucidity is supposed to be about actually controlling our dreams and somewhere along the line I've also heard the theory that we actually leave our bodies while dreaming. So take that with controlling it and we can visit people while sleeping and even look over and protect someone. I've had dreams that I've visited my daughter. I try to be there with her in heart, mind, and spirit.

[@DLynn]

I wish I could do that when I dream about winning a lot of money! *sigh* Thank you for sharing that!😁

[@tomaleshire4145]

I saw Queensryche in the early '80s, they opened for Judas Priest!🤘😁 If you want to see and hear the singer, Geoff Tate, show off his vocal ability you need to react to "Take Hold of the Flame" live!😮🤤 Great song, great guitars🎸🎸, fantastic performance!🤯 I think you'll ♥️love♥️ it!

From their softer side I prefer "I will remember" (there's an unplugged version from the same show). But a classic of this band -to enjoy how good was Tate- is a little harder is "Take Hold of the Flame": kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpybZZeMpptnas0)

D Lynn, you don't have to review this, but in your own time listen to Queensryche's entire Operation Mindcrime album. You have to listen to the whole album because it is a whole and continuous story, the whole album. It is the best album ever, there is not a bad song. Give it a chance but you don't have to review. If you do listen to it, I'm curious of your thoughts on the album. Can be a brief review. No long drawn out reviews. Just a sentence or 2 would be fine.
