- 22nd January will see the release of a new Steven Wilson album “4 ½”, so titled because it forms an interim release between Steven’s recently released fourth album Hand. Cannot. Erase. and the next studio album.
The song "My Book of Regrets " originated during the sessions for Hand. Cannot. Erase.
I am just trying to share the incredible work of the master himself.

I can't understand the secret of this man. During these years has been composing hundreds of stunning songs and kept the quality level of his productions on top. All bands and composers I know have a parabola during their career. After eventually masterpieces there are more or less good records. This guy instead hasn't had any parabola instead. His career is really flat and "boring". It's able to produce masterpiece only.
Antonio Novi he is a genius no doubt about that, I think his inspiration is carried and personalized by every great musicians he composed with, which gives an infinite talent :)
Ludwig Van Beethoven was also like that, only masterpieces to the very end.
To The Bone was kinda lame. But I agree with you on everything else he's done
I think that it boils down to what motivates Steven. I know that in my line of work, nothing but the absolute best will do. It doesn't matter if I lose money on the deal, what matters is the end result. I think Steven is on the same wavelength.
Absolutely. I was apprehensive hearing his solo work in the beginning because no artist i knew had ever made great music after leaving their band and going solo. 5 albums later, this guy is still making stuff that can be matched with nothing else out there. Same amazing quality as with his earlier career. And he has worked on multiple projects besides PT. It is unbelievable.
Always original, never fails to amaze. Can't believe how talented this guy is. Hidden gem of British music
This nine minute long song makes you wish it was longer!
That solo at 6:25 just fills me full of melancholy. Wistful melancholy.
reminds me the vibes of " The Sky Moves Sideways " album from porcupine tree
6:24 - 7:36 In my humble opinion, Steve Wilson plays one of
the solos that have the ability to penetrate my soul essence, inside my heart.
There may be millions of guitarists and I appreciate it infinitely, but very
few understand that the heart needs these types of guitar solos in order to
rise out of a boring and predictable timeline. Basically the song is a structure
with two parts (and their respective transitions) and an ending. This beautiful
solo is from the second part. The first is rocker and with excellent scales
with a progressive tint, while the second part: a calm sea with dolphins and whales.
Agreed, this is one of my favourite solos.
How about a shout-out to Nick Beggs for some nasty bass playing?
Damn right, Beggs is an absolute beast of a bass player.
+spoontothet Beasts of No Bass!
+manco82 Wahoo! Go Nick Beggs!
+manco82 yess - your bloody well right!!
It's not nasty at all. I think it's really good.
Reminds me a little bit of "Time flies" at about 2'25 :o
+Anita B Me too!!
+Anita B Me too!!
+Anita B The ending is also surely incorporating 'Sunday Rain Sets In'. The guitar follows closely, and the phrase 'When the rain sets in' is even uttered. Maybe he built the latter into this track before scrapping this one also?
+Big Mike Smalling
Everything's possible ;)
This track is, nevertheless, absolutely amazing and I'm very happy that I had the chance to see him perform this song live
+anitasrce You're right, it's a fantastic song. Steven just doesn't run out of ideas. Saw him play this live in Bristol, and he was flawless. Tied with Opeth for best gig i've seen.
Just a cool, beautiful song. "Don't let it bring you down. Just wait till the morning comes."
5:30 - "Something broke inside my stomach, I let the pieces lie right where they fell..."
What an awesome track that is. Being with you is hell.
eh, barely rings a bell.
Open Car is epic
Big shout out to Nick Beggs for that killer bassline and Craig Blundell for his stunning drumming!!
Yes! This is the sound I love. So PT-ish. And Nick Beggs, that bass makes love to my ears. Damn it.
Descubrí a Steven Wilson tan solo hace dos años, y no me equivoco en señalar que es lo mejor del mundo en ROCK PROGRESIVO!!!! Esta en permanente evolución y ascenso. Admirable su música y sus músicos !!!
Suele causar ese efecto !.
Es un buen músico y productor
👍
Seen Steven many times. Truly some of the finest music the Western world has ever had to offer up. Steven is on my list of desert island musicians, along with folks like Mark Hollis and Level42.
Fell in love with this song when Steven and the band showed a snippet of it in the 2015/16 tour rehearsal video. Hearing the full thing at the Royal Albert Hall last September was a treat among treats, just so damn special
I am always amazed at the genius of this man. Vermillioncore is an awesome piece. Can't stop playing it.
I'd like to know why American radio has never played this guy's stuff?? Absolute genius.
chazblitz Radio doesn't even come close to play the ultra-complex pieces he produces. There will be too much loss in quality if trying to air his or PT songs.
The same reason why thrash metal couldn't be aired over.
Over 3g/4g network it's possible, so welcome to the present.
Generally too complex and sophisticated for the MAGA crowd.
Wow!! He did it again!! Superb!
Great! love Steven Wilson!
Just a great song , as usual from Steven Wilson
Great song - it has a real Todd Rundgren feel to it which can't be bad.
ooh he thought you wouldnt notice imo very elliot smith too
Can you name some Todd Rundgren songs similar to this?
I just got a FREAKING eargasm ! Literally ! How the HELL doesn't this already have more than a million views ??
It just makes no sense !
Because they just released it like right now.
+Ishaan Kochhar Yeah but, I mean, when other big music producers realese an album (or an EP), views are coming way faster... At the time I post this comment, 6 days already past... And if you look at other big (and aswell, many times, "shitty") productions, they already have like million views after that time.
I just wanted to say that it is a shame that high quality productions like this are not more popular.
This is not your mainstream pop where you have views pouring in for whatever content is out. It's sad but yes the fans here feel and connect better to the music and however the amount, stick with the artists.
+Dark Family Music only the chosen ones are allowed to come across this wonder, be grateful
+Tomas Horn True :)
Just delightful!
That bassline is delicious
Yes, quite scrumptious.
Yum.
Outstanding. Thank you!
This is the closest Steven has drifted to the Porcupine Tree sound since they 'went on hiatus.'
True.
+Nolan Boyer Especially the middle section with the synths. Made me instantly think of Richard Barbieri and what he brought to the Tree.
The strumming does sound like time flies and the soft part has Sky move s sideways feel. I grew up listening to porcupine tree and i'd like to agree with you but the bass line is nothing like what Edwin would play , they have completely different styles.
I think he just got even closer to Porcupine Tree sound with his song "A Door Marked Summer"
Nolan - Are you the real bard?
This music brings tears to my eyes.
Steven Wilson has out-done himself again. It's like when you think he can't top himself any more, he does.
Ahh mr. Wilson is full of stories to tell. He keeps churning them out without sacrificing the qualitative nature of his art.
Thank you for uploading this. :) :)
This song is everything!
This is my go to track almost every day. It's simply brilliant, well done AGAIN SW
This jam is sick!!!! I love that Steve Wilson goes on this fusion journey - love the keybrds - and his mellow moments are just so ethereal - love his melodies - he dose channel prog from the 70s without being derivative - always love his instrumentation - flutes or saxes - strings on ROUTINE! violin! love his voice - very british!! this music gets 10 stars in my opinion.
just found this and LOVE IT
i just love it, it is like a mix of different PT and SW stages
wow, what a breathe of fresh air this song is.
Wow. I didn't think anything could sound this good.
No deja nunca de sorprenderte este pibe, siempre en constante evolución. Un capo total, sino el mejor, uno de los mejores músicos de rock de la actualidad. Excelente, excelente.
thanks for the uploads :D
it smells like heaven
I saw him last night, incredible talent. I met Nick, Adam and Craig they signed my Transience album. Beggs deserves his number 1 vote for prog Bass player. I have just worked out the words for this will post soon.
Manchester? I was there too! What an awesome show! I had no idea this 4 ½ album even existed :D brilliant night.
Steven Wilson is so utterly gifted. 4 1/2 is yet another triumph.
Mr. Steven Wilson, do the world a favor and never stop making music pls
This guy can kill it at any dayyy! BOSSMANNN
Steven Wilson _/\_ ..Good to see fans of PT and steven wilson with the same Tempo..Magical music
Great tune, lovely solos
Heard it live. The Song was fucking amazing.
+TheTrueEnjoyME
Me too just last Saturday in Newcastle,amazing
Works sooo fkin good live!
I agree
First time I heard it was live in SLC, didn't even know he released this album until I saw them selling it at the stands haha.
Excellent. Once again.
Steve Wilson for Emperor of planet Earth!
very interesting at the first listening!!
This track has Dave Kilminster on guitar... to me, it´s sounds as awesome as Guthrie Govan
I agree. To me the first solo sounds very much like a Guthrie solo. Especially the four little 'slide-ups' around 3:50, those scream Guthrie and Dave doesn't seem to do them live. Makes me wonder how recording this song worked out. If Dave re-recorded something Guthrie had already written but hadn't finished recording or something like that. Also interesting that there are three guitar solos in this song and Steven plays two of them.
Guthrie's playing is way superior! U have listened to the aristocrats right? Kilminster is a wicked player, fast and slick, but Guthrie is another level.
steve amazing. great performer
Some recognition for Craig's excellent drumming on this too. Discovered Steve Wilson in mid-2014 - never looked back since.
When the double kick comes in at the end of the song!
Jesus, the quality of this upload.
Been a huge fan of SW and PT for a while now, how did I miss this one? Seriously have not heard 70s style prog brilliance on this level since the 70s, this album is so far beyond amazing words fail. Literally played this tune like half a dozen times in a row, haven't done that since Yes put out "awaken", not that the two have anything in common besides awesomeness... 😍
4:30 I love the Rush influence on this section
Now that I hear it, that intro sure is A sign 'o' the times...
Groaver Andout
Nice show in SF, CA last evening. The Masonic is a great venue to see live music.
When I hear those opening melodies, I know it's gonna be a motivating song for whatever I'm doing. :D
Craig Blundell on drums too, fantastic playing by all as always - great song this.
Hooked seconds in.....I feel like a fisherman who is getting reeled in by the fish...
thanks for uploading this ayur
My pleasure Sarthak.
kinda sounds like time flies
+Andii Rejino Same strumming pattern starting at 2:25
+Andii Rejino its is but ive realised steven does this because he wants to create a song that is perfect. if he uses the same sounds and integrates into the song to make it flawless.
+acdcman96fin good job know-it-all
Awesome
I really like the soft parts.
yo ayer, 22 de enero me llegó a mis manos
Apart from PT, I hear influences
ods to Yes and Rush in there
Yes, especially Squire's very active bass.
He has remixed some of Yes albums in 5.1 DTS, so...
Sometimes [once or twice on each cd] Beggs or whoever is on bass sounds very Squire-like.
Nailed it. : )
Never has a bad one NEVER
haha I'm like wtf time flies?!!
Solo section ish awesome..!
Quest'uomo è un pozzo senza fine !!!
Great music ! Slightly harsh mastering though. Really enjoyed this awesome album ! :)
Steven is a genius!!!!. This song sounds a little like Marillion.
thanks a lot man.
Pleasure, mate.
just wait 'til the morning comes
Amen.
found my jam for the next week.
Don't let it bring you down.
Ha!
SW loves PFM too !
Was this "Song X" from the Boulder, CO gig in June 2015? Steven's tour manager handed me a set list after the show, and we stuck around afterward, and Mr. Wilson autographed it for me. It's proudly framed and hanging on the wall.
Thanx
This is so good! I just discovered Stephen Wilson from his David Bowie Space Oddity tribute to Bowie at the Hammersmith Apollo. Happy birthday to me. Looking forward to knowing his work better.
You are in for a treat.
What's his most poignant album? Is he coming to the Bay Area! Absolutely hooked on a couple of songs. Simpatico.
+Lady BlackStardust Everything he creates is a masterpiece for me, but the ones that really stand out are Hand.Cannot.Erase and The Raven that Refused to Sing.
I'm pretty certain this song neatly fits on "Hand Cannot..." where "Routine"is, and actually makes the whole story fit together better; only problem is that "Routine" is arguably the best song since "Raven". Steven makes my head hurt. Can I go home now?
These are the lyrics I can make out. Some words or phrases I'm unsure of are marked with "(?)", and other sections I couldn't really hear anything explicitly. Please make additions or point out mistakes as you see them!
Lyrics:
In the back of a taxi cab in London town
It's like watching TV with the sound turned down
'Cause I can feel it, I've got a buzzing in my head
And I'm on my way
I see the kids deserting ships like shopping malls
At street corners they ignore their girlfriends' calls
'Cause they've got plans now
And tonight they won't be home
All of this can be read
In my book of regrets
Don't let it bring you down
Just wait 'til the morning comes
So ????? teenage ?????? subway ??????
And ???????? bourbon(?) girls
But they don't care now
Cause they'll soon be safe at home
All of this can be read
In my book of regrets
Don't let it bring you down
Just wait 'til the morning comes
And in neon light she walks home
Back to her apartment, oh(?) sacred
How 'bout(?) when she locks the door
She could slip away
Looking out behind the curtains
Fighting drunk she barely seems to notice
When the ?????? starts to pass
When the rain sets in
In the back of taxi cab in London town
I'm passed out and dreaming of the underground
Yes I'm someone
But I'm no one all the same
All of this can be read
In my book of regrets
Don't let it bring you down
Just wait 'til the morning comes
+Garrett Lappe
Verse 2 is difficult, I cannot make it out fully either but what I do hear is something like
Sore legs to teenage wrecks in Subway worlds
And torn tops from Drag queens fight Suburban Girls
+novak djokovic
Thanks! The first line sounds right, along with "suburban girls", but I'm still not sure about the first half of that line
+Garrett Lappe Hi
I just put lyrics up for you all :)
I Like! ...
great sound! a best brand new.
the song remind me the Rush, but with a modern sound a bit elettronical, the prog is not dead
Fighissima 😁
I hear some Pin Drop in here
The Nightmare definitely! The guitar in the quarter before the middle sounds a lot like it.
Also, that melody at 0:31, 0:58 etc. is the same as during the outro of "Ancestral"
Hait sala kada 👌👌👌👌
That reverse piano in the beginning.
Nice
This is exquisite. Seeing him in about 4 hours at the Hammersmith Apollo...
All the best! Enjoy the show!
+Greg Batchelor was an amazing show :D
dan mayhew
It sure was!
2:25 me sonó a Time Flies
Ear Gasm! \,,/
❤😍😍😍😍🔥
