    The people in poor countries are trapped in inhumane conditions they have to survive in and they only know that people in Germany (and other rich countries) live a much better live. Southey naturally want to get out of their miserable lives. So they become refugees. And yea, considering that game of Tag you mentioned and the mindset and ideological issues behind that game (and those - nowadays - „Schaumküsse“ named sweets) What they used there in imagery and lyrics is very much a political and sociorcitical commentary. Great video! And great reaction!

  • @randalljones4370

    Yay ! Someone else heard the 'heart beat' in the opener. "Lub-dub, lub-dub lub-dub" , swung wonderfully in kind of a laid-back jazzy way, AND it ENDS on the phrase 'Everybody Dies". - how perfect. Pitting Michael Mills against Marcela Bovio in a game of 'Who has the Highest Pitch" must be a soundcrew's worst nightmare. I wonder if they ever blew a horn driver on that song? The Hammond : Joost has a chopped B3 up there, but the keyboard he was playing at that moment was a Nord synth.

Thank you for doing that. Knowing her, she didn't play the chronical ill card, she always wanted to be connected whithout predujice. She's a trekky as well and hopes you're doing great in your job.

    If you like multiple artists on stage you should definitely react to “The Sixth Extinction” Ayreon Live Beneath The Waves. Are 19 singers in one song enough for you? (Info: this song is the last one on the album 10101001; this album was performed live in Sept 2023 in its entirety; it was an amazing show)! Thanks for reacting to this dynamite performance! More Ayreon please!

    Viking, I'm curious here🤔. A lot of "talk" out there about music frequencies, mainly the frequency of Earth is 432mhz but it was high jacked and increased to 440mhz. As I understand, 440 is not a natural frequency for us and "distorts" how we receive it. Do you know or can find out what frequency Dan performs his incredible talent. Every thing he delivers resonates with me and at times, goosebumps 🥰🥰🥰

    If you want to hear more of Maggy Luyten I suggest Intergalactic Space Crusaders also from the Ayreon Universe show. It's a very catchy duet with Damian Wilson. The song was originally performed by Damian Wilson and Russell Allen for Arjen's first Star One album. Speaking of Star One, a young Floor Jansen was participating in the first album in 2002 and was joined by her sister Irene on the following tour. Since then both work regularly with Arjen on his various projects.
