Kev stayed true to his word, "I will never be open again."
lol
Soooo fucking awesome to see them actually playing this, if you read interviews about this song they used to be all like: "That song is some weird Kevin Moore shit, we don't like it and if we had known he would leave the band we wouldn't even have recorded it"
Buuuut it's actually one of my favorite DT songs ever
I think what they usually meant is that it is song and they did not feel right playing it without him.
Sooo right. One of the best songs from all times from DT. I wonder how it would sound having Portnoy over there ...
they played this song their concert on istanbul/turkey, i cannot stop myself crying.
todologinjahfoiusado i really miss portnoy
todologinjahfoiusado Well, if you add Portnoys RLKK everywhere into this song, this would be a total fiasco...
This is the song that inspired me to learn to play the piano
Piano in my apartment 😂😂
This is the song that inspired me to learn to play guitar
😊😊😊✌️✌️
Jordan Rudess, however, in an interview stated that he would like to play it live whenever the rest of the band is ready. Rudess performed the song live during a solo concert, with James LaBrie featuring as a guest vocalist. Jordan loves this Song and shows respect to K. Moore. Yes is a DT song, even only Kevin did it. peace.
its not "the DT song", its THE song. whoever performs it. whatever. nearly 30 years later.
@@darthshadow1322 exactly ... THE MASTERPIECE
That's a very respectful gesture from Jordan Rudess.
Ruddess shows respect to Moore? How? The guy has ruined every soaring solo of Moore's and turned it into reggae and funny Simpsons themes and other garbage to show how zany he and the band is. He has never respected Moore's work in any way, despite making money off of performing it. Like the others, Ruddess is basically a mechanic when it comes to music. Moore is an actual musician and so is Sherinian and this is why there were problems.
@@MrDrmorbid tell us how you really feel
Well here's a song I never thought I'd see live.
I got to see this tour live. When they started playing this, I almost fell over. AWESOME seeing this song live.
Michael Mancoske I purposely did not check their set list prior to going to this show. When Jordan started playing I couldn't believe my ears.
Me too, I thought put a nice new spin on it.
One of songs my ex boyfriend dedicated to me. We saw Dream Theater together at the concert. We cried together. We're together no more, but very often I come here to remember every feeling that I've had with him. This song was the soundtrack of our love story.
Where is he now?
Yiheee kinikilig
You all probably dont care but does anybody know of a way to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my login password. I love any assistance you can give me.
@Alan Jesse i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Alan Jesse It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account!
This song hits like a tonne of bricks. You can feel the emotion that Kevin Moore put into this.
I just found out tonight he 100% wrote it and if the band knew he was leaving it would Not of made it to the album.
@@mikeazdaar4842 How do you know it wouldn't have made it to the album? Just asking, that would be crazy to leave this off the album. Great song.
@@daltondrouillard9308 Kevin Moore left Dream Theater after "Awake" was released on October 4, 1994. Out of respect, some members of the band had expressed that they were not willing to perform it without Moore. Portnoy commented that if they had known Moore was going to leave the band, they would not have included it on the album. He considered "Space-Dye Vest" "totally 100% [Moore's] song"
@@mikeazdaar4842 Okay that makes sense. Thanks
just a tonne? more like a few f'n gigaton!
Petrucci, Petruccier, the Petrucciest!
comparative and superlative. haha nooice! ;)
So much hate in the comments, I can't believe you guys. Of course, LaBrie doesn't sound the same nor can sing the same but that's just how things work. Still, he sounded amazing in my opinion. Petrucci maybe tried to do a solo with the same aspect of Hollow Years in the Live in Budokan dvd and I don't know... you guys find flaws in everything, but they are humans and this is art. There is no right or wrong. They are playing a song that desevrves to be played live.
They are all old but there, still there making music with an effort to make something special for us, not like other bands who simply play the songs in a whatever way and call it a night. Just try to appreciate more, it's so easy to hate.
The most judicious comment! Totally right, everyone feels that they have the right to demand perfection from DT, c´mon, it´s just another great band, this is not tennis nor car racing, it´s art, there´s no best or worst.
That's just rude(ss), they aren't old! :) Otherwise your comment is spot on.
Your comment is so true!!! Respect for these guys, they are genius, I watch this video, and the time stops around me. :)
Sakari Kempas Nice pun,haha! Yes, they aren't old, I know :P I just meant more like they have been doing this for a long time. Jordan is 58 though and certainly doesn't look like it.
👍
I love Dream Theater, but I can't stand their fanbase. They give out so much butthurt and criticism with just about every single thing the band puts out or changes. Bands like this are getting less and less common (as far as I know) so we should just enjoy what we like about it and let go of the rest. I'm glad the guys do what they want with their music. Give them a break, they're human.
Well said mate….spot on !
This is the most beautiful song ever recorded (I'm talking about the original version). Proves the absolute genius of Kevin Moore.
I completely agree, this piece is perfect, incredible, beautifu,l the best song ever.
I never get tired of this live arrangement. The way they took the vocal up an octave and had the big crashes and everything is what this song needed. And John’s melodic solo at the end is the icing on the cake
I had the privilege of being at the show that was recorded, definitely a highlight.
So emotional, so incredible, just remembering that era I can't stop crying. Only a genius like Kevin Moore could compose this masterpiece. His magic, his soul, everything he transmitted with each note. I will never forget everything he made with DT 😭
rudess absolutley killed it, paying respect to kevins original work while adding a ton of cool stuff and sound
Comments:
75% "why so much hate?"
0% hate
Exactly 😂
Exactly, Im Still Finding Where's The Hate Comments. 😂
Thank you Kevin. You will always be in our hearts.
People
Kevin left 21 years ago
21 fucken years ago
He is not coming back to dream theater ever
+Isaiah Winter sad but true
+jc matias what's really sad is if they knew Kevin was going to leave, we would have never had this song
+Isaiah Winter Nah, Kevin would have used it in his solo work.
ironically enough, this song is about kevin dealing with a breakup and served as a means for him to get over it. and yet for others it seems to have the exact opposite effect xD
Kevin said: I'll never be open again
This is a great loss...
Friggin-A I''ve always loved this song. One of my favorites. Hits hard!
A song the whole world needs to hear.
Kevin Moore rules!!!
This song is absolutely perfect, and this performance was amazing. This is what music is meant for...to make you feel it in your soul. Goosebumps every time. Thank you, Kevin Moore.
Released 1994. JL's voice obviously won't be exactly the same. Live music will always artistic variations. Get over it. I loved it.
actually, Kevin Moore also sings this in the record. That's what's missing
@Akhenaton you can hear his voice on the album
And we all know who to blame for james' downward spiral of his voice, other than food
James is so god damn amazing its mind blowing how he can capture the emotion in what he sings. He truly is the best singer I've ever heard.
And the hair! Never cut that shot James!
Exactly. I don't understand the hate he gets
it was going great until he tried to go the octave up for the last section, i thought that sounded a bit weird but the rest was really nice
@@joeyhardin5903 that's the best part wtf are you smoking
@@ryanslater674 carbon monoxide
wow! I love what Kevin Moore has been doing since he left DT... I hope he feels honored by this! this just sounds great!
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and feelings, even when
I hold you in my arms.
I don’t think there is a fan of Dream Theater who became a fan over the course of the first three album who doesn’t wonder what if Kevin stayed? Theres a mystery and sadness about it and with this as his swan song for the band musically. He had much to give and did so with his own projects but....what if?
Outstanding... I join the club of those who never thought to see this live. One of the most emotional songs ever recorded by DT and my personal favorite from "Awake". A wonderful tribute to Kevin Moore's legacy 🙏
(nearly) 30 years later, still kicks you in the balls...
I used to listen to this song all the time. Dream Theater is the best!
Love it how Mangini goes crazy at 4:38. "The man that plays without feeling"
Love the way James sang it. Gave me goosebumps.
Damn why is there so much hate going on about this version? I thought it sounded amazing. If I want to hear it the way it was on the album, then I'll just pop in Awake and listen to it. Live versions are supposed to be unique and a new experience for the fans, just look at Hollow Years.
Original is far better for me cause I liked the original KB solo at the end, that doesn't mean I hate that version and beside Kevin Moore did it better, it is his song dude
Its not easy song ... so powerfull in feeling ... so powerfull musically ... so powerfull in silence
Grande Kevin Moore!
Kevin was awesome
I can feel the energy of Kevin Moore presence during the performance. I'm sure JM JP and JL miss Mr. Kevin Moore so much.
One of the best songs ever.
Great rendition of an important and powerful song. I rather liked JP's solo, actually - that fade out at the end of it was pretty sick.
It amazes me how easily butthurt DT fans can get. Guys, its a 20-year-old song they've never played live before. Of course it won't sound exactly like the studio version. Get over it and enjoy the ride.
With so much changed in Dream Theater's lineup, I think that it sounds great. I especially love that LaBrie stepped up the latter half the octave to bring the power and emotion it brings. Sure, it's different but to me it's a good different.
Andrew Dornay im not a veteran dream theater fan like some of you are but this was the first recording ide heard of this song. i knew it existed but never got around to listening to it untill i decided to listen to this concert and i loved it. i didnt however realize the effect of James's octave jump untill i listened to the original. that changed the whole song for me and now its one of my favorite dt songs. octavarium will always be my favorite song right along side of ministry of lost souls.
I'm very ashamed of belonging in the same club with these people.
Completely agree. Armchair warriors armed with their comments behind their keyboards.
This is amazing. This is my favorite DT song for many reasons and this live version is equally good as the original.
I prefer this live version to the studio's one 😅
The 1 N Only the BEST BAND in our world Dream theater
Amazing labrie ....fabolous voice
I’m a hardcore DT fan and I thought this was fucking amazing
this is the first live version we heard and it's damn awesome. too much feel ................
Watched "A room with a view" because of this song... thank you for putting words to how I feel.. just thank you
This still gives me the goosebumps, such amazing artists
Una auténtica maravilla de canción. Gracias Kevin!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know what everyone's complaining about. The tone on Rudess's piano actually sounds like a typical '80s grand, which is what Kevin Moore used on Awake. As far as Mangini looking bored you're talking about a guy doing a world tour traveling from country to country jetlagged out of his mind. That much work and prep and practice and travel combined with the fact that's he's in his 50s for Christ's sake. I'd be sleepy too.
Mike Portnoy was right. DT fans are insufferable fanboys of the highest order. You play one fucking note wrong and you're a heathen sell-out. None of these people have accomplished anything in the music industry, mind you. But they'll be the first to offer their (worthless) opinions on how to succeed and how one should conduct himself while he's succeeding.
Jay MacDonnell i wish everyone could just enjoy the music that these guys bring us. without any drama. music isnt ment to creat problems. its meant to inspire us,help us grow, heal us, and be enjoyed.
Totally agree. I only complain about Labrie's singing these past few years but I always loved the band, Mangini looks kind of weird but I can take it. There's so much complaints about the whole band in pretty much every video I just don't get it.
Best DT comment ever, thank you :)
Jay MacDonnell Completely agree
not to mention his part for a lot of it is nothing or ride - ride - ride - ride...
I guess it's just too epic a song for the band to resist playing live. Hence, the genius of maestro Kevin Moore. ;)
I actually like Ruddess's improv in this
Thank you so much for breaking the promise and playing this masterpiece guys
I'm crying now. So much emotions in my heart. So deep.
This is the first time I’ve listened to this song since I was diagnosed in December with RA. I just told my wife I’m cured . Music this good is fucking powerful .
Beautiful.. how i wish they will play "the best of times" live.. i want to see petrucci's solo at the end.. fucking brilliant
Ahhh.. it would break the internet
@@Marifet124 they will never perform it due to personal reasons
@@okchess never say never :
@@Marifet124especially now with Portnoy back in the band. It would be cool to hear a change of seasons and the best of times with him back
Absolutely loved this version! Everyone played their parts so nicely, even Jordan and Mike, who were not in the original lineup showed so much love and respect. I was so anxious that Jordan would ruin the whole thing with his usual goofiness, but he showed admirable restraint. Excellent!
Yeah. We expected the wankery from Jordan but in the end we got it from John. He has thousand solos to play 1 million notes per second and show his admirable speed and technique but he had to do it on that song too. A main characteristic of this song 's beauty is simplicity but they could not just keep it simple.
@@nikoslamprinos Agree.
@@nikoslamprinos Agree... what a disaster made John Petrucci... why does he need to show that he can play 3000 notes per minute in every f**in´ song? And he was wrong in two or three notes :/
@@nikoslamprinos A lot of notes does not mean less feeling or beauty. At least for me it does not.
One of my fave. alltime songs...EVER. Haunting & amazing...
4:37 onwards - Love that he sang that those last verses higher (" there's no-one to take my blame, if they wanted to" etc.) - my favourite part of that song - loved the original lower singing version, but love this as just as much!
I love this version so much
Kevin Moore's goodbye to the band, whan a fantastic song, goosebumps from the beginning to the end.
I really love this song. I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd too. This song remind me of 'High Hopes' sometimes.
Spettacolo! Immensi Dream Theatre e geniale Kevin Moore!!!
The heartache of unreturned love
22-years-old, known this song since I was about 17 and in high school.
17-yr-old me thought this was a really cool song with great instrumentation.
22-yr-old me feels the same way but on a deeper level. The music, the lyrics, the emotion, everything is so real. As a person who has been dealing with OCD, ADHD, self-harm, depression and general anxiety, and someone who is an HSP (highly sensitive person), I've felt some pretty low lows, to the point that, despite not having even born when the song was released in 1994 (born 2002), I genuinely started to get worried and concerned about Kevin when this song first began to hit very deeply for me.
This song speaks of frustration, lust, isolation, self-deprication and being "at wit's end," no pun intended.
D minor is definitely the key you use to write a song like this. The chords, keyboard layers, mix of clean and distorted guitar, the vocals, arpeggios, bass and drums, atmosphere, and the poetic, thought-provoking and emotional lyrics that drip with frustration and pain.
Gosh, I'm sorry Kev experienced what he did. However, this did change my approach to music and songwriting forever, and in the best way possible. If I was an original DT member who played on the album but was still around (JM, JL, JP) and we played this, I'd be thinking about Kevin throughout the whole song, hoping he's okay, wherever life has taken him.
"Feeling my heart pull west..."
"Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding, a pool in the shape of a heart..."
"And I'll never be open again..."
Oh Kev...you were/are something else, man. ❤
Just watched the dvd. Truly amazing performance and one of their best songs!
I almost fainted when they played this song here in Vancouver. One of my favourite songs and we were pretty sure they would not play this live ever, but there it was. It was a good thing that I kept away form setlist discussions, it would have ruined this amazing surprise.
stoned, listening, crying
Awesome, seriously. There is so much power in here.
I love this band I love the way it sounds I've gone back and listen to the older material to the newest stuff all of it I listen to it all I don't have issues with his band any of the past members current members are all insanely talented
Such a beautiful song with so much emotion. I think that most people who know the words to this song who have broken up with a significant other has felt this way.
Finishing a song with one hand on your tremolo arm and the other on a volume pedal is just awesome.
Falling through pages of Martens on angels
Feeling my heart pull west
I saw the future dressed as a stranger
love in a space-dye vest
Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding
a pool in the shape of a heart
Beauty projection in the reflection
Always the worst way to start
[Sample is Julian Sands from the film "A Room With A View".]
"But he's the sort who can't know
anyone intimately, least of all a
woman. He doesn't know what a woman
is. He wants you for a possession,
something to look at like a painting or an ivory box.
Something to own and to display. He doesn't want you to be real,
or to think or to live. He doesn't love you, but I love you.
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and
feelings, even when
I hold you in my arms. It's our last chance... It's our
last chance..."
Now that you're gone I'm trying to take it
Learning to swallow the rage
Found a new girl I think we can make it
as long as she stays on the page
This is not how I want it to end
And I'll never be open again
[Sample from "The Trouble With Evan", from the Canadian series "The Fifth Estate".]
"...I was gonna move out...ummm...get,
get a job, get my own place, ummm,
but... I go into the mall where I
want to work and they tell me, I'm,
I was too young..."
[Sample is Jim Hill from a news commentary about the OJ Simpson freeway chase.]
"Some people, gave advice before,
about facing the facts, about
facing reality. And this is, this
without a doubt, is his biggest
challenge ever. He's going to have to face it.
You're gonna have to try, he's gonna to have to try and,
uh, and, and, and get some help here. I mean no one can
say they know how he feels."
[Sample from the Conan O'Brien show.]
"That, so they say that, in ya know
like, Houston or something, you'd
say it's a hundred and eighty degrees,
but it's a dry heat.
In Houston they say that?
Oh, maybe not. I'm all mixed up.
Dry until they hit the swimming pool."
[Sample from "The Trouble With Evan", from the Canadian series "The Fifth Estate".]
"...I get up with the sun... Listen.
You have your own room to sleep in,
I don't care what you do. I don't
care when. That door gets locked,
that door gets locked at night by nine o'clock.
If you're not in this house by nine o'clock, then you'd
better find some
place to sleep. Because you're not going to be a bum in
this house.
Supper is ready..."
There's no one to take my blame
if they wanted to
There's nothing to keep me sane
and it's all the same to you
There's nowhere to set my aim
so I'm everywhere
Never come near me again
do you really think I need you
I'll never be open again, I could never be open again.
I'll never be open again, I could never be open again.
And I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend
And I'll never be open again
And I'll have no more dreams to defend
And I'll never be open again
Moore was the best lyric writer in the band.
Wow, lyrics with sources for the samples, thank you.
This was the absolute first time I heard this song and by the time it was half way over I was crying like a baby. I don’t know why….It’s not fair that the world has people so talented they can write something like this. That’s the only way I can describe it and I’m a Berklee trained musician.
Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic! Dream Theater the best band has ever existed!
I realy love them. DT is special band. I Love you guys. And I wish happines and peace for all people on this world.❤️🍀
Labrie really shines in the lower registers. I know this is kind of an obvious observation considering his noticeable vocal deterioration, but really, I feel the most vulnerable and emotional performances of his have been when he wasn't belting out high notes
Like his song Smashed off of elements of persuasion, he's basically singing at a whisper for all of the song and it's beautiful
Absolutely perfect performance. Amazing. Everyone gave 200%. Love the way Mangini hits the kit
I thought I once read that Dream Theater never have and never will perform this piece live because it was "Kevin's song. He wrote it. If we knew he was going to leave we never would have wanted to put it out there. It wouldn't have been right to him."
I'm going to assume they did this with his grace. Because it's a beautiful song that needs to be performed everywhere possible.
The. most. beautiful. song. + dissapear. period.
2:51 Mike Mangini back there be like "I ain't having fun, when can I start killing it?"
Awesome sound quality. DT never fails to bring it live.
That ending solo, so epic!
Man I really appreciate this song. Only been in love once or maybe twice and still my heart aches each time I listen
This is the first time that playing live and i love this song!
Good God this song is meant to have fragility, why does DT have to make everything bombastic now?
nit pick...
Drakodan Finally, someone that knows whats up. I'm not really surprised tbh, the production is overdone and sounds massive. Thats what they were going for. I've seen few songs of the performance and man does it sound uninspired, probably the result of their rigorous tour cycle. Unfortunate how mediocre the band has become now.
I disagree. The feeling of the music is there. I never saw the band playing in so incredible way, showing the original meaning of the song. Awesome performance. High quality material and performance.
Drakodan the fact that you wrote a comment the size of an article about this performance proves you are nit picking lol
Omair Sheikh dude you are on a lot of DT vids stating how shitty and mediocre they are lmao...
We Will never forget such a great masterpiece from kevin Moore
As sad as it is there still people (and worst of all, fans) that don't appreciate Dream Theater
Beautiful ... Beautiful...Beautiful Song.
One of my favorite DM songs. I love every single note of this one
One of my all time favorite ❤️❤️❤️
Great version of this masterpiece!
Nice Kevin Moore Cover by DT
Moore is the best :'v
pretty sure myung wrote this song
Kevin Moore wrote everything in this song. 100% Kevin.
Haha, no. Kevin Moore wrote this song and DT put it on Awake only because they knew he was leaving the band. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-Dye_Vest
Such a pointless comment. I'd love to know many DT songs are "John Petrucci songs being 'covered' by DT"...
I'd guess quite a bit. But really who cares? Kevin Moore wrote this song when he was with DT, and it is a DT song. Live with it.
Although the original recording of this song is phenomenal. This live rendition is amazing and does the original justice. JP solo at the end is incredible and a lovely addition.
That,, is some awesome shit, Thank you Kevin Moore, Brilliant
I think I just came in my pants! Been waiting for 20 years to hear this live. Funny as I was singing along to it the high note LaBrie hits at the end didn't throw me off like when they did The Silent Man in Scenes from a Memory Live. \,,/YtseJamr4Lyfe\,,/
Powerful and dark ethereal ballad..
@4:37
There's no one to take my blame
If they wanted to
There's nothing to keep me sane
And it's all the same to you
There's nowhere to set my aim
So I'm everywhere
Wow!
Amazing Music Dream Theater
Hi, Im from Indonesia :)
This song is absolutely brilliant. Seeing them play it live is amazing, but I still get chills watching the video.
1- Of course Mike Mangini is bored. For the first half of the song, there's like one non-rest note every four seconds. It's boring to drum. That said, you can see him really get into it once the "power" part of the power ballad kicks up.
2- Of course James doesn't sound like he used to. It's been more than twenty goddamn years.
3- No, Jordan doesn't sound "artificial." His Korg sounds a lot like a grand piano from a few decades ago,
4- Yeah, that solo from Petrucci isn't exactly fitting in with the rest of the song. Oh, well. It's the first time in a long time that they'd played it live.
5- It is probably missing a bit of emotion. But the guy who wrote it is long gone and whatever was going through their heads when they recorded the song has long since passed. DT is a progressive metal band, not fucking Bon Jovi. They can capture emotional lighting in a bottle with the likes of "Spirit Carries On," but you can't just expect them to wheel out an old ballad by a departed band member and bring everyone to tears with it.
6- No, this wasn't a "fuck you" to anybody. Not to Moore, not to Portnoy, not to anyone. They just needed something in the setlist that could both excite the crowd and leave them on a cliffhanger prior to the grand finale, "Illumination Theory." This is Kevin Moore's song, so to speak, and I'm sure he'd be more than proud to see his work preformed here more than two decades later. He left DT knowing full well that they retained the right to preform material that he composed with them.
jontayl
Yeah, imo the only thing wrong with this performance is Petrucci's solo. There is no need to shred or sweep in a slow, depressing ballad. He starts with a neat bend( i would have done it an octave lower though, to build it up appropriately) and honestly, it was great until he starts sweeping which ruins the atmosphere. The shred after that phrase was also unfitting for the song totally. I know JP improvs a lot, but pls, not every DT improv needs shredding solos. I just thought of a solo that involves no shredding at all and is much more fitting for this song.
Just my 2 cents about this performance.
Even JP's solo is fine
I wouldn't say this was a cliffhanger. They played the entire second half of Awake, so it would've been weird to leave this out.
The solo was a bit out of place, but its mostly because I think that later versions of it during the tour fits better.
the key difference is it is lacking the second voice, sung by Kevin Moore in the record. It's a two voice song
Love this song!
A música mais linda deles! Ficou linda na voz dele!
