Steven Wilson, described by The Telegraph as ‘the most successful British musician most people have never heard of’ embarked on his hugely ambitious sold-out To The Bone world tour in 2018. Founder and frontman of adored outsider rock band Porcupine Tree; one half of Blackfield; a Grammy nominated back catalogue remixer for acts like Roxy Music, King Crimson and Tears for Fears, as well as a solo artist hugely respected for a series of visionary LPs, from 2008’s Insurgentes, to his bestselling album To The Bone. Home Invasion celebrates the very best from across his career so far, presented as a cinematic multi-media show with glorious visualisations and outstanding musicianship. This stunning concert film was captured on the final night of his three night sold out residency at the Royal Albert Hall, London in March 2018, concerts which were hailed by media and fans alike as among the very best shows of the year.
Director - James Russell
Producer - Andy Derbyshire
I feel guilty to experience this for free.
You should try to visit a live performance someday :)
I don't, because i live in a hole he will never visit.
There are adverts it is posted by Steven.
@@imarealwitch1154 saw him live in india, you live in a deeper hole than my country>?

I can't explain the sadness this song brings me. It's like I'm carrying someone else's grief, and I feel it very deeply. What a beautiful song.
I tear up almost every time I listen to this song.
Standing ovation for the guy who mixed it 🤯
Steven himself does the mixing for almost all of his shows and albums, as far as I know. He does a fantastic job. It must be great to have people hear your music exactly the way you want them to.
Everyone comments about Steven, who is obviously a genius, but and the rest of the band, the visuals, the lighting, the sound, even the crowd ... Everything is just brutal
Steven ended the concert i visited in Vienna with the words "this is the best song I've ever written - the raven that refused to sing". What followed were some of the most intensive emotional moments of my life.
Luminol
He’s not wrong.
The theming, the story, the melodies... it’s all there.
brah, I was there too. Man my eyes were waterish af during this song. I felt so happy
Don't leave us hanging lol - what followed?
@@metalqueen17 He refused to sing
@@metalqueen17 the raven that refused to sing!
That moment when Steven starts the main melody shred on his guitar and a dude in the audience can’t help but feel overwhelmed and raises his fists in the air. I felt the same way watching this through my phone. Only Steven Wilson’s music can make you feel that.
This is the moment where it hits me. Only time I've ever experienced anything close was seeing Envy live at XOYO 15 years ago. You feel the music. Epic.
The melody that plays at 2:17 creates a feeling of beauty and sadness that only a handful of songwriters can achieve. Steven is a genius.
And at 3:40.. it's just heartbreaking
And also at 5:00. Absolutely sublime
Orange Man you cannot compare a paedos song to Steven Wilson.
Sometimes I listen to amazing song for that part!
This gives chills
not even a single soul holding up their phone cameras to record him. this is beautiful
Very good point.
Phones were banned. They're recording a DVD film. It's expensive shit.
@@ronweasley7005 phones were banned across all tour, in Mexico they even took people out of the venue (or at least all the way to the back of it)
@@julioan94 exactly
@@julioan94 Es decir simplemente que no los sacaran, ¿o tenían que dejarlos en algún lugar?
This is a song that I'm afraid of watching/listening because it might trigger too many emotions. And it'll end in sadness for sure. Anyone else feel the same?
Don't get me wrong, I frigging love this song.
It reaches deep into one's core...in such an understated way...the so very best of English...
This is a soft violation of the ego.
I know I can never get through the song without opening up a box I'm afraid of. And a box of tissues.
I feel the same. I also got that with Routine. I just can't hear that song anymore after seeing the clip.
In the middle of the pandemic, my sister died suddenly. I live around Baltimore and she was in another state. It appears at the time we didn’t get along, and her family carried this. I can’t visit or memorialize. I am forced to be the Raven Who Refuses to Sing. I get it
The absolute audacity of youtube putting an ad in the middle of this is unbelievable.
Agreed! Same with the Drive Home Music video. Right before the solo starts... At this point I instinctively know when to pick up the phone to skip after 5 seconds :(
Try the firefox addon "ublock origin" no ads anymore
The absolute audacity of taking everything for granted is unbelievable. UA-cam doesn't owe you anything, sir. Pay your Premium as I do and enjoy the show!
I’ll happily welcome an ad for the opportunity to see this :)
I've only recently discovered Steven and his music. I'm only in the beginning stages of exploring his catalog as a solo artist as well as Porcupine Tree. Since I found them a couple of weeks ago, I haven't stopped. He's truly an artist. I can't believe at 57 years old, I had never heard him or them before. I feel like I've been living under a rock or something. So far for me, he is the melody king. He writes some of the most beautiful melodies I've heard in a long time.
If you enjoy Steve's music, you may also appreciate some of Opeth's albums. Traditionally they are a death metal band, but for the last decade they've been pure prog. Check out Heritage, Pale Communion, and In Cauda Venenum. Cheers my friend ✌
@@bsautospa2957 Damnation i think is the first step
same.
@@proyectosppuq9035 I left damnation out because I doubt this 57 year old wants to listen to the most depressing album they have. At least all their later prog have waves of highs and lows, notice I didnt mention sorceress either.
All that matters is that you found him (and Porcupine Tree). Enjoy.
You know why nobody in the crowd is singing back? 'Cuz nobody can. It's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful
The man is the very definition of musical genius.
It makes me cry everytime, like no one song could.
Thank You Steven
What a performance
I discovered SW and PT in 1995 at the age of 19 when the album "The Sky Moves Sideways" came out and I will stay with this brilliant artist forever!
Emotional. Miss you Grandma 20 Days without you.
Always in my Heart
The parallel major/minor key progression in this wonderfully haunting arrangement is genius. Love Steven Wilson's song writing.
I lost my daughter a year ago this song helps me with my grief 💔
I saw him live just once, this year, this was the last song they played.. those last 10 minutes of SHOW will be always in my heart.
I lost one of my best friends last year, she was like a sister to me. Everything in this song reminds me of her. Thank you, Steven.
Sorry for that loss.
😢 I'm sorry.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
I'm so proud of being there seeing this wonder of a gig that I managed to recognise my own scream of joy in the beginning of the song when I played this video!
Full on tears while diving deep in this tune! What a finale!
The most incredible song ever to close a show with. If you don't feel the absolute heartwrenching beauty you must be dead. His songwriting is pure genius and ever evolving. He might not embrace the "prog" label given him but here's an example of what that elusive tag means.
Steven is a genius. His melodies directly hit to the soul.
Steven is a genius, his compositions are the most beautiful that anyone could create, I will take them with me to death, Steven thank you very much, you made my life much better through the two songs, congratulations from Brazil, I will still go to a concert of yours.
What a freaking gem of a song!
I was on the show in LISBON this year (2019), and this song LIVE is something MORE. So Epic, emotional, extremaly well executed, the production, the lights. Man, WHAT A SHOW and what a final song to close the set.
I have had the privilege of seeing him play this live twice. the first time was awesome. the second made me cry
Oh hey Raphael!
Thank you Steven for.....everything.
This is the best music that I've heard, unfortunately people from my country doesn't know it, I hope to go to many concerts after.
País de vergas y pollas debes vivir
This is the best you ever heard? Dude there are people in the metro playing better
Glorious performance. I quickly forgot I wanted to see Marco and Guthrie... Amazing what those guys did, wish they were in the credits
I’m dying from ALS and this song hit me very hard. Please please sing to me raven I’m ready to go.
Have only recently discovered Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree. And I have listened to so much music as I am almost 68 years old....but I have to say I am blown away by the talent of this gentleman. Thanks for doing what you do....you are an amazing musician.......
6:39 That's gotta be one of the most magical moments in the history of live music
Legends of melancholy music! Steven Wilson never fails to bring out the soul of the song.
One of the only songs that can consistently bring me to tears
the Raven tour was fucking phenomenal... this song, other-worldly
Steven's response to Devin's Deadhead.
Equally packed with feels and sadness
Except from the fact that Devin's got an incredible voice that Steven, unfortunately, doesn't have. Great dudes anyway, both of them. I'm more of a Dev's groupie tho hahah
@@erwinschroedinger8902 After Steven last 2 shitty pop albums, he totally lost me.
Always been a HevyDevy guy myself and he never disappoints.
@@JohannesParra same here. I saw him live on Hand. Cannot. Erase. tour, and I wondered what could possibly come next as all his music was mind-blowing to me... Seeing that dramatic downgrade in quality disappointed me immensely.
Steven Wilson Is The Best Musician In The Planet! Porcupine Tree Is My Alltime Favourite Band ❤
Definitely one of the best 4 sure !
Best musical phenomenon on our time.
mix is so crisp and tight.....eargasm
Impossible to hold tears while experiencing that. Sheer perfection of Art!
I saw this performed live, it totally broke me. Oh the agony in this beautiful piece ....
Afraid too awake.. afraid to love and then the silence with amazing creativity 😢
This is one of the most touching song ever! Steven is a monster!
Had the priviledge to see these performances live several times, it was always special, chilling and hair-raising. The raw emotions that Mr Wilson and company create with their art are transcendental.
YES!! Transcendent is the word I've been looking for, the perfect word to describe Steven Wilson's music.
I actually enjoy and love Steven's solo albums, if not more, just as much as I love the Porcupine Tree ones. Fight me.
Agreed! Imo though, PT really evolved since In Absentia and the rest is history. Blackfield is awesome too ☺
metalqueen17 And NO MAN - Check out Schoolyard Ghosts, some beautifully moving songs
@@martinpowell5769 I tried No Man and can't get into them :( Thx for thr recommendation. I will take a listen :)
@@metalqueen17
Try riverside, they are gem as well!
Porcupine Tree's songs are very much Prog-Metal mix with powerful riffs and incredible chord progressions. While SW solo albums are extremely meloncholic, subdues and highly evocative. These, I think, are the prime difference among the 2. But they are different sides of the same, sublimely divine, coin.
Beautiful song from equally beautiful album. ❤
Wow….Just wow…awestruck!
Honestly, this song only "clicked" for me after this exact live perfomance. It was just slightly sad when I was hearing album version, but when I saw it on Home Invasion blu-ray, I started to choke and cry uncontrollably for no obvious reason. After all, live versions of Steven's music, while losing some details from the album, acquires some new dimension which makes it breath and bloom.
grief. i'm not sure i know of any other contemporary artist who can speak so clearly to true, soul loss. steven wilson does that to us profoundly well. i lost my 'lily' six years ago, this music is both healing and heartbreaking, that is of course the truth of love. we are so fortunate to have this artist in our lives...
Damien Scott agree!👍😘🇸🇪
One of the best prog song of this decade. Love it since its first release.
Beautiful song, performance live, scenary, background as always Steven. 💯✌
He performed the greatest show I've ever seen...and I've seen over 1800 bands live. I love this song but of all his PT/solo stuff this one disturbs me the most. I love dark but this pushes my limits.
Great to See Nick on Bass for Steve!🔥🤟
It's been six years and this song still gives me goosebumps. Incredible performance ❤
I'm speechless. You're all so lucky the ones you got to feel and see this live. I hope I'll be able to experience this once in my life.
Whenever I need inspiration I listen to music, and this song tops that list for me. I try to listen to it as less often as possible to keep it fresh for as long as possible.
I hadn’t cried in years...
Damn... we are near of the perfection... this song is amazing
Arguably the most crushingly beautiful song ever written. Experienced with live video, it reduces me to tears every time. Sooo good.
One of my favorite songs that I can listen any time... This song is a musical journey..
One of your most beautiful songs ever writed... ❤ Love u Steven, from México🇲🇽❤
En todos lados andas jajajaja
Ximena Melodeath Tengo una pequeña obsesión por el jaja :(
@@chivasandangelo chocalas jajaja
The more I listen to this, the more it deepens in my body and soul.
• Un CANTO de Esperanza y de AMOR, convertido en ✓ JOYA MUSICAL en ACCIÓN ✓ °; Un Dinámico Saludo🩷🙋😊👁️🐚🌐🛣️.
I miss you so much Lily❤
I've listened to this at a minimum of once a day for a couple months now. Never does it lose its power, and every time I tear up. It's pure musical magic, and probably my most appreciated song. Steve's ability to fit into many different persons shoes and be an example of many emotions is a true marvel. To him and all his members past, present, and future, I say BRAVO! 🙏🙏
Masterpiece! This song will be immortalized
brilliant instrumentalists, beautifull melody, perfect arrangement, incredible lyrics, and a lot of deep and true emotions !
that's all you can see, hear, and feel watching this video
this a GEM from SW !
but the best is to to feel it alive , the best way to end a perfect gig..
the audience and I were totally stunned by such an emotional set
one of the best concert I ever went
thank you Mister Wilson for all you gave, give and will give for music, sincerely
Seen it in Hamburg this year. Tough times holding back tears.
Just perfect. Absolutely perfect.
Damn, this song caught me off guard, almost tearing up.....lol. Just Amazing........Amazing.
Thought i was born in the wrong generation of music but then i heard Steven Wilson...
You're in the right time mate!
You're alive at a time when virtually every piece of music ever recorded is accessible to you at the push of a button.
Clearly this is the best time to be alive if you're a music lover.
True👍❤
Well at least you're not an edgelord anymore
Saw this live on the tour in Belfast... I both love and hate it, as it is amazing and beautiful, but also a massive punch to the heart. 🙁
Steven is the best ❤️ such a beautiful and emotional song. One of my favorites❤️
C'est de toute beauté, ça vous touche dans votre âme.
Steven wilson a un talent incroyable et sait bien s'entourer.
C'est magnifique !!!ça me donne envie de pleurer tellement c'est beau !!!!!!
Vous avez de la chance, moi comme vous, j'ai envie de pleurer mais je ne peux plus. Même de rire, je suis fatigué ;(
When I saw him play this live, it was so fucking intense. My brother began crying, and I just barely held back tears. Truly magical
Chills the entire way through
4:52
This is where he realises that raven won't sing for him.
God, this song must be included in text books
I was 15 when I first heard this song. Now I'm turning 20 next month and it saddens me to think about how fast time has gone by. Thank you Steven for bringing me back, just for a little while.
Sir. I’ve never been more emotional in my life. Deb Barcomb brought me to your performance in Copenhagen February 21,2019. I am now a SUPER NOVA FAN FOR LIFE. Thank you so much.
Happy anniversary to this incredible album!
In my opinion the best Steven Wilson's Album.
Superb we love you STW greetings from Venezuela
Would love to see a collaborative project from Steven Wilson, Peter Gabriel and Sting, in this lifetime...
Sting?
Steven is one of my favourite performers, and it's because of this song! A master at work here.
Wow this song really moves my soul
Steven Wilson is a musical genius!
Better then the studio version. God bless you m8
This is a level that is on another level, that is on another level.
one of the greatest songs that any human beign was capable of making
This is the only time I have ever actually teared up during any performance in my life...
Pure perfection.
This song is so dark and intense that i love it.
I purchased the blu ray when i was in Berlin, in November.
I got a VIP meet and greet ticket in 2013 and met steven, it was such a wonderful show. mesmerising feeling just soaking in the perfect mix. they ended the show with this song and as stoked as i was i kind of felt wounded as i walked alone back to my hostel room. i cried as i nestled into my bunk. i knew in the morning i had to call a friend and talk about things.
Can‘t get enough....
Any raven would sing to such a beautiful melody :P
One of the best writers of my generation. A killer performance as usual
In my opinion, this is right up there as one of the best written and executed songs of all time. The sheer pain and raw emotion in this song is simply overwhelming. Such an incredibly beautiful song, and I am glad I chose to explore Steven Wilson’s work.
It's the exquisitely very English restraint, part of it's charm for me.
This makes me cry every time i hear it, the power behind every note and word...
🥲 beautiful
This is just beyond beautiful 😍😭😭
