The whole album (Metropolis Pt. 2 : Scenes from a Memory) would absolutely blow you away. This song has even more of an impact when you know the story behind it.
My #1 favorite album of all time. I had the great fortune to goto the 20th anniversary tour in 2019 and it was something i will NEVER forget.
@@weefek I was there on that tour as well 😊
This song brings me to tears every. single. time. Easily one of the most beautiful songs ever written imo.
It is!!
Finest musicians to ever grace the same stage. And they do it almost every night.
Their song "Best of Times" Is about the drummer, Mike Portnoy's Father passing away from Cancer. its so good and a great send off for his dad.
Dream Theater is my favourite band for the last 25 years.
And it's always interesting to see how people react listening to their music for the first time.
They play so many different kinds of music, from heavy and complex, to progressive and epic, to soft and peaceful.
So if you had listened to The Glass Prison for example you would have a completely different reaction and you would not believe it's the same band that wrote this exact song.
But apart from that i really enjoyed your reaction to this. Your focus, your enthusiasm, and your love for what you hear was so original and true that made me smile watching you.
This song is indeed a beautiful ballad from them, and it's always getting love when it's played live.
They surely know how to compose music that creates so many emotions to people.
Another song you could react to at some other time, would be Barstool Warrior or Breaking all illusions.
You are not going to be disappointed either way, i can guarantee that.
Much love from Greece!
Wonderful reaction, please do more Dream Theater, they have so many beautiful songs. From the more complex and long ones to the more simple and minimal…The rabbit hole is soooo deep….
One of the most beautiful songs they made ❤🤘👍
Hi. Greetings from Brazil. Love your videos. And yes, "The Best of Times" is an amazing song. Cheers.
I love this song. Been listening to them since their Images and Words in 1992. Some of the most talented musicians you’ll ever hear.
Same here!! 👍
John Petrucci is one of the finest guitarists in the world. This is one of their more mellow songs. Their heavy stuff is so sophisticated. Great band
damn i always cry with this song.....
me too bro... me too 😢
The guitarist signature guitar is called Majestic nowadays, that's funny that he said that word specifically
It's even more funny since the original name of the band was Majesty. Especially given the joking about the name. Early on, another band with the same name threatened to sue them so they changed it.
Andrei, i absolutely love your sensitivity dont ever stop wearing your heart on your sleeve
Petrucci is what Gilmour would sound like if he played faster. Impeccable tone and emotion.
Great Reaction!!! This is an awesome band and you can categorize this music but realistically, it’s just unique that can be categorized in different ways. Many bands had taken their influence…
I love your reactions and to see and listen to you react to Dream Theater is a real treat for me. I have seen this band in concert more than any other band by far and they are such a joy to behold, sonically and visually. For many they are too technical and too complicated. This was a very good song and experience to react too, from a wonderful album. You two are such a treasure. Thank you!
Amazing reaction! Thank you! I really am a fan of your reactions. Now with this Dream Theater reaction, you have reacted to all of my favorite bands, and have enjoyed them all. I really like the way you both appreciate such a variety of music, share it with each other, and share that with us.
Dream Theater has always been one of my favorite bands along with Maiden, Priest and Rush. They are all virtuosoes on their instruments, yet they have so much feelings in their songs. They make long progressive epics, really heavy riff based metal songs, but also lots of ballads like this one. Hoping for more reactions to them. I want to recommend Change of Seasons live from New York.
I have followed this band for 35 years.I've seen them 36 times and this song always gets me emotional.The way this song got him emotionally charged and the way she comforted him.Is the feeling I feel when I see this bed every time you has a amazing
More dream theater, please 🥹
Next song is on the way 🤫
@@WolfD24 woooow, really? Can't wait
You guys are beautiful! Best reactors out there and your commentary is always spot on. Thank you for letting me cry with you in moments like this. Brings me back to hearing these songs for the first time myself
Fantastic band, right there at the top of my list.....so glad you enjoyed your first listen!
My favorite band, so many awesome songs ! i recommend "Home" from the same album, absolutely unique style and feel to it.
Greetings from another romanian, Andrei! 🇷🇴😊 So glad to see more people touched by this incredible balad ❤ You guys should definitely check the whole album (Metropolis part 2: Scenes From a Memory), it's a whole story. A play, with scenes, characters and plot twists. My absolute favorite band of all times, for over 15 years now.
Oh, and a funny coincidence, your wife's name is almost exactly my aunt's name. Only difference is my aunt is romanian, and her name is Domnica ❤
Very truly reactions.
Welcome to the Dream theater world.
Spirit Carry ,Yes it's a ballad.
Dream theater is Metal?
No!
They are Progressive Metal, ( they are founder of that genre).
Spirit Carry on, it's a part of Story.
It's one song of the album "Scene from memory".
It's a concept album , theatrically It's only one long song but, like the opera, is divide in 2 act and nine scene.
"Spirit Carry on" it's the scene eight, penultimate track.
Most of Dream theater songs are "hard" or "Metal". some part "Dark metal" but they had done also lot of "soft" song.
On the long carrier they had touch a lot of time the death theme, the most beautiful song about, in mine opinion, Are:
"A change of season" , dedicate at the premature death in airplane disaster of the drummers mother.
"The best of time": Dedicate to drummers father that is die due a cancer, Drummer had write the song during the father still alive , but he is die before it was complete.
Remember most of the song is not easy listening, continuous tempo change, continuous change key, and not a simple riff, but almost all the lyric is great and are connected to the music.
After all It's Progressive Metal.
If you want listen how they can do, i suggest :
"Octavarium" ( live version it's amazing), a roller coaster of type of music , start for classic , and touch almost all genre in only one song.
"Illuminations theory" ( live at Boston opera ),
Metropolis part one ( live at Boston opera)
"Count of Tuscany"
Due they had done 15 album in over 35 years of carrier you have a lot of song to choice, and during all this years every album had Dream Theater touch, but different feeling sometime more Metal sometime more Progressive .
Last thing, all member are very skilled musician, Everyone is among the best at playing their instrument.
Queensryche and Fates Warning was the founders of Prog Metal
@@antoniocarlin5026 It's a grey line, but DT was the one that inspired other bands massively. They were themselves inspired by other bands, Rush being a big influence for example.
Great reactions, it was so nice to enjoy that with you both…
I hope you always pick their great live performances of their masterpieces while you are exploring their songs…
You will enjoy very much how they mix emotions and technicality :-)
Cheers from Paris !
amazing reaction guys i cried with you both
All classically trained musicians. Just shear perfection.
The music is timeless... you captured the same feeling I did when I met the band in 1995.
😌🎶🎶🎶🙌
A hug from Brazil. 🇧🇷
This is such a great entry-level song into DT. I hate it when people recommend songs like Dance of Eternity to new listeners
It's like going straight for the dessert.
Beautiful reaction, love to see the emotion coming out. Dream Theater and especially John Petrucci on guitar do that you. In the live at the luna park version you can clearly see the same reaction in the crowd. And like someone else said , the entire album “Scenes from a Memory” is a masterpiece 🤘🏻
Dt is amazing, listen to hollow years live at budokan next,it will give you guys goosebumps
Ok, I Just cry again with this song
The New York live version, from Live Scenes from NY concert, with Theresa Thompson on backing vocals, is a must watch if you can find it on CZcams.
It was so good and genuine that you cried!
Nobody makes the guitar sing like John.
Your reacts are genuine ,soulful ,and relevant.
I would highly promote throughout the Dream Theater discography a ton of songs that focuses on these BERKELY MUSIC COLLEGE graduates brilliant songwriting conquests.
A few very notable songs to grapple with are ...
Pull Me Under ,their first commercial release ,and killer heavy guitar driven anthemic rock songs, Through Her Eyes ,on this album ,aloong with "FINALLY FREE" ,and off of their "FALLING INTO INFINITY " album ,the songs "HOLLOW YEARS" ,"ANNA LEE" ,, and from a YOU TUBE video ,a duet of the song "COMFORTABLY NUMB " with QUEENSRYCHE" is dynamic ,its epic .
John Petrucci ...guitar
Mike Portnoy ...drums
James LaBrie...vocals
John Myung ...Bass
A number of keyboard players..
Kevin Moore
Derek Sherinian
Jordan Rudess.
I love watching your reacts ,bc you evoke the same emotions that were strived for by the bands playing ,and songwriting compositions.
Great job ,both of you !!
I'm falling in love since 92.
Wonderful reaction. I loved it. Please react to "Dream Theater - Octavarium ( Live Score ) " . In the opinion of a big fan, it is simply one of the greatest musical works in history and their live performance is simply magical. Kisses from Brazil.
Brother, this song and many others of dream theater have the same impact on me. I've probably listened to this song 300+ times since it was released, and it would be rare for me not to shed a tear!
rock and metal is so beautiful. i also cry sometimes with a lot of solos. did you hear "scarred" by them? for me, one of the best songs by dream theather. or "voices" from the same album. or "take the time". in those 3 songs there are incredible solos in keyboard and guitar. greetings from barcelona music is worldwide
Go grab a good bottle of wine and listen to the Scenes from a Memory album. Its a story about a guy who learns about his past life through hypnosis. Captivating story, insane music and plot twists. This song is towards the end of the album. 🤘
Nice reaction guys, you should do a reaction to Octavarium live Score the same concert as this it's probably their most famous epic song. warning it's a long song!
Intro sounds like it is VERY heavily influenced by "Coming Back to Life" with Pink Floyd. But nice reaction. This is a very soft and smooth introduktion to Dream Theater. Looking forward to Dominika getting to know them better 🙂 This was just beautiful......
Hi guys... I suggest you react at "Barstool Warriors" fron Dream Theater. Special song....
Next react :
Dream Theater - Barstool warrior
Dream Theater - The best of time
Dream Theater - Take away my pain
In the original version the lady on the chorus was a backup vocals from Pink Floyd ❤
The great Theresa Thomason. That live version from 2000 in New York is still my favorite version of the song.
@@KyleS.1987 I saw them on this tour here in Monterrey, México, first time DT in México...she comes with the band!!
@@KyleS.1987 Agreed, the Scenes From New York version is my favorite version as well. Theresa gives the song an unmatchable boost that cannot be matched without her.
This song is Beautiful and it has one of the best solos I've ever heard...when they went in my unknown, little city in southern Italy, we all sang this song at the top of our lungs. Anyway, the album "Scenes From a Memory" is like a movie where each song is connected with the next one and tell one intriguing story. It's a must have and must listen to . Please react more songs from this album. ❤
Love U
You called it "Majestic". Funny because their first band name was "Majesty" :-)
Yes please more Dream Theater! They’ve shaped progressive metal as it is today. Surely living legends. Started during the 80s and still going full force. Next time listen to panic attack by Dream Theater worth a listen.
4:23 Dream Theater's original name was Majesty bu they had to change it for copyright reasons. Not sure if true or not but supposedly when Portnoy flipped his bass drum heads backwards to try to hide the name they read "YTSE JAM" ... or "JAM YTSE" but either way it's a great song off their first album
Without going into too much detail, as many comments have already covered the basics, yes, these guys are very musically inclined. They were formed by meeting while attending Berklee College of Music in New York City. Their "progressive" style, meaning they don't follow traditional song timings etc is a hallmark of theirs and a reflection of their talent, especially their drummer here, Mike Portnoy, who was the youngest drummer to ever be inducted into the Drummer Hall of Fame. I had the privilege of seeing them twice live in Philadelphia, both around Christmas time when they do their rendition of "O Holy Night," which can be found here on youtube.
If you would like to listen to something different of theirs, you can try "Stream of Consciousness." Just look for the version here on youtube that is titled, "Live at Budokan." It's an instrumental with no singing, but very well-produced and an awesome song. Kinda like a prog-metal version of Metallica's "Orion"...which is heavier, but also an awesome tune.
If you wanna hear heavy, Dream Theater has plenty of that :)
Next,the best of time from DT
This is a good introductory song for them. It's one of their simpler, more calm songs. Youm7st do more to experience their immense talent.
Someone else has probably mentioned it by now but the singer ruptured his vocal cords in 1994 and so what you're hearing here is after his long recovery. He's not able to hit the high notes here that he could on the recorded album, which is even more beautiful because it's more atmospheric compared to the live version and more of the background music comes through.
The whole album is worth listening to. Almost every song is as emotional as this, or more.
Don’t worry. I cry over all sorts of music.
Please watch the live version of this that has Theresea also singing a long almost the whole time, it's absolutely incredible. Even better than this live version.

The Pink Floyd Inspiration
Also you guys told majestic the original band name was supposed to be Majesty.
Please react to more Dream Theater! 🙏
the intro was more like “Through Her Eyes” scenes rather than “The Spirit Carries On”.. 😅
Ignorance isn't always bliss;)
You said majestic, the funny thing Dream Theater’s original name was Majesty
I love you both. Please check out Pana cand nu te iubeam by Pink Martini featuring Storm Large (yes, her real name) . It's a live performance and it is mesmerizing.
I got this. Uau
yeah, Dream Theater does that to you. they completely suck you in, but in a good way. they're the only band that made me feel a whole range of emotions.
aaahhh je me demandais quand quelqu'un vous offrirait ce petit bijou de métal progressif...
haha un fr ça fait plaisir je pensais être le seul, DT Forever
Hey ...there really enjoyed watching ur reaction ❤..I want to request to react this song One Ok Rock "We Are " Ambition Japan tour ....I know u won't be regret of watching...I hope to see you in ur next reaction video ..... keep updating... Big fan ❤❤❤
If you trust Dream Theater, do Octavarium 😊
Though this is a great version (and the 1st time I've ever heard it), it's not the same without the choir from the 2000 original live version of the whole album. Watch is here if you like - it's even more powerful: czcams.com/video/ewA65TUznok/video.html
Dream Theater is an amazing name for a prog band imo 🤷🏻
For me not since Gilmour has a guitarist played with such emotion.
I wish James could sing his older songs better. Age always wins😢
You guys haven't anything, you have now fell in a trap called Dream Theater! now it´s time to enjoy some music.
If pink Floyd were Catholic 😑
This song is the story of a lyrical character that is highlighted throughout the album. You have to listen to the whole album to get the gist of the whole story. This band doesn't play Christian rock.
This song is from a conceptual álbum...jajaja. About hipnosis and psychiatrist :p
With two jews in the band? Yeah, sure.
There is no band that brings emotions like Dream Theater
Dream theater is the best prog rock band ever! 5 musical prodigy's that make music with acuuracy and perfection. A stunning band. #1
🙄
Misspelling accuracy is very ominous.
