​@estebanpaz4909 they have to pause because they'll get copywrite striked.

Fun fact: Jordan rudess (the keyboardist) went to Juilliard school of music at 9 years old. One of the most prestigious music schools in then world, as a child.

They are the E.L.P of the 2000s, and this shows off to the max their instrumental virtuosity but like ELP they also have some amazing storytelling ballads like ‘The count of Tuscany’ that you should listen to.

Yes please more Dream Theater. They’re living legends. Next time breaking all illusions by Dream Theater live at Boston Opera House

Count of Tuscany is really one of the best songs ever for me

This is without a doubt my favorite band of all time, and in my opinion also the greatest. NO ONE can outplay these guys! Their music has literally changed how I look at music, both as a fan and as a musician myself. This particular song is basically the benchmark for intricate instrumentals, with time signature changes virtually every measure or two (with most of the musical elements never being repeated). However, as great as this song is, it is literally just a brief musical interlude in the middle of what I consider the greatest concept album of all time, "Metropolis Part 2: Scenes From A Memory." All of Dream Theater's songs are epic, but there are a group of songs that are considered by their fans as TRUE epic masterpieces...most of these songs are rather long (to most non-progressive music fans), and are usually the showpiece songs on whatever album they were recorded for. My personal favorite is a song called "The Count of Tuscany" (which is also my favorite song of all time), but other examples include "A Change of Seasons," "Octavarium," "Illumination Theory," "In The Presence of Enemies Parts 1 and 2," and "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence." If you would prefer to get your feet wet with a few shorter songs, I'd recommend "Pull Me Under," "Take the Time," "Under a Glass Moon," "Lie," "The Dark Eternal Night," or "Forsaken." All of these songs will also give you the chance to experience the remaining member of Dream Theater...vocalist James LaBrie. Thank you for checking out my favorite band! I'm glad you enjoyed them, and I hope you will react to more of their music in the future. God bless!!

Without doubt one of my fav songs is "The Count of Tuscany", the last track of the album Black Clouds, and the last album with Mike Portnoy that was one of the most creative members in the band. Miss him a lot in DT.

Everything is better with Portnoy ... saw them 10 times with him, and 2 weeks ago was the 8th time with Mangini. Both are great drummers, but watching MP live was always fun, his input into the band was extreme, especially for the fans writing different setlists during a tour just not to repeat the same songs. Nowadays they have 1 setlist and play it throughout the tour. Mangini is just a machine behind the kit, no interaction with the crowd ... the sad thing about DT is that James is getting weaker and weaker and we really thought about going again, but after 2 years of corona, I think 2023 will be the year with as many as possible concerts, at least 1 per month, maybe 2 🤘

Yeah, more Dream Theater would be great. There's only one thing i would suggest: pick a live version! You will find beauty and interesting stuff in all of their songs (and they cover a wide range of different styles and musical complexity), but seeing the Band performing it live with their incredible skills makes the whole, already amazing experience even more fantastic. Keep on rocking, thanks for sharing, cheers.

If you don't know them yet, I would love to hear your thoughts about "Opeth" :) Start with the studio version of "Ghost of Perdition" and after that "Faith in others" and maybe they'll catch you too! :D

Great to watch people getting their minds blown by DT for the first time! I'd recommend watching their live performance of Illumination Theory. Absolutely immense.

Although this is not my favorite song from them, you can notice the enormous creativity and technical perfection. They are the absolute top in this perspective.

Hi! I just watched your Dream Theater video. It was my first experience with them. No idea why I think I've ever heard them before, but YES, YES, YES, I will listen to much more. Oh, and I liked your style so I smashed the subscribe button.

This song is probably their craziest but they have so many amazing songs. A good start would be going through their album "Images & Words"

you will get more goosebumps when you see them live

Fan of dream theater since 1992 here!🎶✌️🎶

20 years ago, when I got tired of explaining Dream Theater to people who had no idea, I started calling them the best unknown band of the world 😆🤘

One of my fav tracks. I've had the same headphones for years, love them. Same peeling happened, so I rubbed it all off. Still going strong! Cool review. Thanks.

I like your style of not interrupting the music. Subscribed.

It’s hard to pick a favorite dream Theater song. I love so many of them. I suggest Pull me under. It’s on images and words which is basically dream theater’s first album which was 30 years ago. It’s their first single they got played on the radio and one of the only ones that ever was but it’s amazing

i really love your reaction! welcome to the world of DT!

I was at this show lol, incredible experience. Cool genuine reaction!!

The precision reminds me of Emerson, Lake and Palmer from the 70s. Red👍🏻

Great reaction. Your first understanding of DT. Illumination Theory is my fav. Enjoy

They are so amazing live. The time signature in this piece changes 108 times

Her face says it all. Look!! her face changing to a metal face at the end haha :)

It also helps to hear Metropolis. They tie elements of that song into this song.

Look at the audience. Everyone is glued to the performance instead of their mobiles.

I've never head Dream theater too this is my first listen to this band too

Most of them are Berkley School of Music graduates. The drummer, before joining DT was a Drum Professor at Berkley!!! My two favorite DT songs are Systematic Chaos and Lie. All the songs on their newest album are awesome!!!

Iconic band with the best musicians on the planet.

And I forgot: If you liked that, check out "Instrumedley". If that's not self-explanatory, it's a medley of most/all of their instrumentals they played live a while back. Usually that's the one people recommend for first-time reaction videos.

"The sound of metal in they year 3000." Yeah I can see that. This was my first listen too; it kinda sounded like a medley instead of just one song. Those guys can really play, I would've gotten totally lost. lol

It serves as the interlude to Metropolis Pt 2, and it flows seamlessly into One Last Time. I'm glad I got a chance to hear it played live in its entirety a few years ago.

Indeed, watching this video with you is like being on an adventure with the most beautiful space princess in the galaxy (that would be you ❤️). Just the video I needed to see to be happy. Dream Theater in Sabina's reaction. The best of today, thank you 😊. Yes, the band blows your mind 🤯

Love that so many people are still discovering Dream Theater! There's never been a band quite like them, and they're still putting out great progressive music to this day! (But I do think that their best work was in the '90s, of which this piece of instrumental genius was released.) And yes -- I too get goosebumps from that final section. It's just so distinctively Dream Theater -- epic, experimental, futuristic. They have more than earned their place as one of the greatest prog bands in history. In many ways, they remain peerless...

now this is one proper reaction video, no talks, only reactions. thanks

This video is 99% perfect! It would be 100% if it was made using an older version with Mike Portnoy, the original drummer. He's the guy! He's the monster! Congratulations! Your reaction method, without interrupting the song is the best!

Great reaction and comments. Thank you.

I thought you should have started out with something more commercial that the band did, like Pull Me Under, but you actually did recognize their brilliance. Good job

I got to see their 20th anniversary tour for the album this song is on (Scenes From A Memory). They played a one hour set, then the *entire* album, then a 30 minute encore. I cried :')

Many comments on what is the best dream theater album or song and we've all got out favourite. For me I think scenes from a memory is outstanding. I think it was Mike portnoy that said if you want to get someone into dream theater listen to the album Octavarium.

I saw them live yesterday, they were pretty incredible, even though LaBrie voice is not what it used to be This is quite a ridiculous instrumental, but more important is that it belongs to a concept album Metropolis Pt. 2, probably their best work

I strongly recomend to anyone to take a look to the Dream Theater live at Budokan. It is extremely well recorded, both sound and video and you can see all the "vulgar display of power" and virtuosism that they have, and is also a very rich and delicious collection of songs, and includes the "Instrumedley" which is just astonishing. Congrats for this discover Sabina!!! Enjoy DT. Cheers

It's also important to listen to this whole album -- as there's some context in how it flows through the album to this song to the end.

Metropolis 2 is as close to perfection as i have ever found! Dream Theatre are all individually and collectively about the best musos on the planet today.

These guys are masters of timing, transitions and visual excellence. If you were a fly on the wall when they jam you better be good at math lol

My name is Leslie and I am a drummer. I have been listening to to their music since the 80's. In the 90's. I met the band and had a chance to chat with the singer and original drummer Mike Portnoy. I stongly suggest listing to their titled song " The Great Debate ". Your ears will thank you for it. Thanks for your channel and good work, take care.

DoE is legendary, it is one of a kind. Next you should take on Count of Tuscany, it is a fantastic journey through a wild story.

The Count of Tuscany will give you Goosebumps as well!

Come on everybody!! RUSH RUSH RUSH!!!!

I love the song SCENE TWO I: Overture 1928 by Dream Theater. Same album but amazing song.

I saw Dream Theater on their last 2 tours, the first of those (2020) was a 3 hour show which they played an hour in support of their at the time new album, and then the last 2 hours they played Metropolis pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory, which Dance Of Eternity is from, in full as part of a 20th anniversary celebration. The second time I saw them (this year) was in support of their latest album, A View From The Top Of The World. The title track is 20 minutes long. They also played The Count Of Tuscany as their encore song (also clocks in around 20 minutes). This is a highly recommended next song to check out from Dream Theater. Guitarist John Petrucci wrote it after a visit to Tuscany where he met a random person that took him on a guided tour of an estate and told stories of the heritage of the land, he started thinking he was being kidnapped and would never see anyone again, until the man reassured him he was free to leave whenever he wanted.

You can try the album where this song came from, Metropolis Pt. 2:Scenes From a Memory. It tells a tragic story you need to experience yourself.

Check out John Farnham - When The War Is Over ( Live) [ The last time Melbourne 2003]

love this song!! I'm sure it's been said, but you should watch the version with Portnoy on drums. he originally wrote the part before Mangini replaced him 10 or so years ago. this album (Metropolis Pt 2) is also so much fun to listen to!

Listening DT is like enjoying a great novel 🤘

“The sound of metal in the year 3000” Perfect description of Dream Theater!

This is a great one because it takes sections of all the music that came before it on the album and alters it, destroys it, and builds upon it. Kind of like how the beginning of Beethoven's 4th movement from the 9th symphony teases ideas from the previous 3 movements.

Sabina - if you're impressed with the drumming; that's not the original drummer who wrote that part and he's playing on a set with a completely different layout. And he's playing every exact note perfectly as written. (btw, they finally got their first Grammy this year. A very long time coming.)

The count of Tuscany and lie are really good I love it
