In my humble opinion Opeth is the greatest band ever. In every song you get a taste of every likable genre of music wrapped in a beautiful melody. Thank you Opeth. You have revived my love of music and my belief that man is capable of true beauty and artistry.
I met my first love because of this song. I was sitting on the bus alone and flicking through my music trying to decide a song to listen to. The most beautiful red head I've ever seen sat next to me and asked me what I was listening to, and asked for one of my ear buds so that she could listen with me. We began dating soon after, but all good things come to an end eventually. I still love her and I wish she knew.
Opeth is so underrated here in Brazil... I wish more people could listen to this and find it as amazing as I do. One of my favorite Metal bands in the world.
I once upon a time Carried a burden inside I sung a last goodbye A broken rhyme I had underlined There's an ocean of sorrow in you Sorrow in me Saw a movement in their eyes Said, I no longer knew the way Given up the ghost A passive mind submit to fear And the wait for redemption at hand Waiting to fail Failing again If death should take me now Count my mistakes and let me through Whisper in my ear You've taken more than we've received And the ocean of sorrow is you Read more: Opeth - Burden Lyrics | MetroLyrics
I for one totally love this song mostly because it was my first Opeth song ever listened. I'm very happy Opeth did a softer song so I can explore their music as well. Now ... 3-4 years and 5 live shows .... I want more Opeth!
I have so enjoyed the evolution of Opeth's music. They have have gracefully mastered integrating different styles, and continue to develop with every successive album a unique style that is hard to compare or relate to anything else. The evolution of their music has been such a delight to follow. I like the clean guitar sounds, the keyboard solos, and the deep and often cryptic lyrics. It is a pity that they had to cut short the fantastic guitar solo that finishes this song. I wait with anticipation for their next release.
This music is so freaking magic !! I don't know why, but opeth songs always sound better to me in the winter, love hearing after the rain when it's cold.... it's soo perfect !
I'm not afraid to say this because this is internet. As a guy this is kind of a shame, but for some reason this song makes me cry. It always gives me an unexplainable pain. I rate this song as a master piece. That is what "I" think about it. After listening to this song, I became an Opeth fan. Thanks for uploading this brilliant song.
i love how much they pack into all thier songs, its not just the same riff chugged over and over again, its several different small things that add together amazingly. its perfection
Yes. And it's fucking amazing. Seeing Opeth live is like a drug. The music and the fans. It's such an awesome experience. You can't find that kind of energy anywhere, anymore. A sea of people 1500 strong, dug into an underground club and surrounded on all sides by tall concrete walls, all singing the lyrics as loud as their throats will let them, swaying together, empowered and intoxicated by the sound and by one another, just being there in the moment. It really is a wonderful thing.
I once upon a time- carried a burden inside- some will ask, goodbye- a broken line but underlined- there's an ocean of sorrow in you- sorrow in me- saw a movement in their eyes- said, i no longer knew the way- given up the ghost- a passing minds and it's a fear- in the wait for redemption ahead- waiting to fail-(...)- failing again- if death should take me now- count my mistakes and let me through- whisper in my ear- you've taken more than we've received- and the ocean of sorrow is you--
Opeth never get what they deserve....Still I see opeth somewhere down in the third or fourth row in any music festival's line up poster. It's is really disappointing a band like this stays below any other musician in the world......i don't know everything but whatever I know I would say yes when it comes to music opeth is one of the best band that existed or would exist on earth.
The real question is whether there is any band like this that are nearly as popular. The reason they don't headline festivals is perhaps because their genre is relatively unknown...
Humanity has perceived just 10% of Opeth' music and here they are. I personally have figured out say 50% and i kinda laugh inside when people even dare to compare them with any musician by far. For me, they are as much encompassing as music itself
I really like this version of the song better than the one on the album. How the solo starts immediately at 2:56 and fades out in the end. Definitely one of Opeth's classics.
Opeth have the ability to make the most brutal complex music while having the sensibility to incorporate aspects of more mellow forms of music. Kepp up the excellent musicianship
wat a music early in the morning.. !! this w'd certainly make my day!! :) God bless you guys.. a relief by some good piece of music after heavy kinda music obsession.. a friend of mine introduced me to Opeth an yr ago.. and I was mesmerized by their creativity yet versatile style of music..!
Temazooooo ! es como que no lo puedo dejar de escuchar jajaj, ademas lo saque con la viola y guau tampoco puedo dejar de tocar este temoooon. Gracias Opeth por tan maravilloso tema :D
Unfortunately, it's a reason I don't listen to many of Opeth's song. Growls aren't my thing, but I see and appreciate the genius and creativity of their music.
Opeth have the ability to make the most brutal complex music while having the sensibility to incorporate aspects of more mellow forms of music. Keep up the excellent musicianship
call me crazy but does anyone else feel like Akerfeldt is a reborn classical master composer? from the musicians perspective he displays so many examples of classical dynamiscism. the compostitions tend to go through at least 4 or 5 different themes including the growl to clear voice, harmonies, etc. a friend(artist and professor) once told me true art is the marriage between technique and idea. vive le Artist Akerfeldt.
Hubo una epoca en q a un tipo de musica se le llamaba erroneamente banguardista, esto no es q c le acerque , esto es GRANDIOSO, un sonido, cubre el espacio, es elegante, el punteo (sin contar la voz) es lo q mas vale..... Glorioso
Funny thing about Opeth is that I always get so damn peaceful when I listen to a Opeth song, even the louder songs, when i listen to other loud bands I usually wanna knock someones head off:P
I understand your situation. Very similar for me. The closest place they've ever come to play near me is 220 miles from my home. But I've seen them four times now, three times in America, and once in Stockholm. And I can't describe to you how awesome the Stockholm show was. But if you ever, ever, *ever* get the time and willingness to drive out to meet them somewhere (I understand it could upwards of 500 miles to drive for remote areas), take some friends, and do it brother... truly.
I got these fucking goosebumps and fuck they aren't going !! I get them every time i hear this fucking masterpiece! Mikael fucking genius Akerfeldt and fucking DOpeth.... Love from India !!! :-D
This song is the song of my life, when i'm die, i want this to play or maybe remebered, i have all of OPETH album's and i dream one day meet the band, of couse i'm poor, but it's a dream! 10/10 it will be my birthday, and my girlfriend gives me an blackwater park T-shirt (it´s too dificult find in Brazil) and i'm so happy. This is my song. THANKS OPETH, THANKS AKERFELDT! #BRAZILOVESOPETH
There are two types of people:
Opeth fans
People who don’t know opeth
Jay Richards saaaaame
I heard of Opeth and didn't dig the growl stuff. Years later I discovered they were way more than that. I've been hooked for awhile now.
It's a crime to edit this masterpiece to a short version
I couldn't agree more!
Yeah.... i watched it was like WTF! they cut off the end.
Bark Lord of the Sith don’t forget the mesmerizing intro
The same with Porcelain Heart and The Grand Conjuration :( Why????
In my humble opinion Opeth is the greatest band ever. In every song you get a taste of every likable genre of music wrapped in a beautiful melody. Thank you Opeth. You have revived my love of music and my belief that man is capable of true beauty and artistry.
I will definitely recommend my future children to listen to Opeth.
Bintang The Indo Beer me too 😁
Did you have children?
How can they fade out on an awesome harmonic guitar duo? Dammit, this song has another 2 minutes in it
snowmanwilly 3
Because the keyboard is better. True story
Another 3 and a half

Wow, what a story.. what happened in the end? What a fantastic way to meet someone though
(I am like 4 years late rofl)
that keyboard solo is fucking sick!
buz3017 Fucking Good !
Agreed!! Classic, 70’s style, jam!!!
I think it's the most beautiful ballad I've ever heard. A masterpiece indeed!
Opeth: The final "classic rock" band.. in my opinion.. They keep it so fresh, original and just simply amazing..
They are not a classic rock band, they are a progressive rock and progressive metal band my friend.......
No words can describe how great this band is truly great
Opeth is so underrated here in Brazil... I wish more people could listen to this and find it as amazing as I do. One of my favorite Metal bands in the world.
cutieeee
MASTERPIECE!
Meisterwerk :)
greatest ever this song literally can speak to everyone that lived and walked on earth.
Im crying when im watching and listen this video.
I cant stand so much awesomeness
Mikael Åkerfeldt is a vocal beast. His work with Opeth and Bloodbath are par-none.
This song triggers depressive episode and sometime intensifies my depression! But I love it! I'm addicted to this loneliness....
that's exactlly how I feel...
same :')
LMAO u don't have depression.u wanna sound cool
Know this feeling so well
I play it as a game
I once upon a time
Carried a burden inside
I sung a last goodbye
A broken rhyme I had underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you
Sorrow in me
Saw a movement in their eyes
Said, I no longer knew the way
Given up the ghost
A passive mind submit to fear
And the wait for redemption at hand
Waiting to fail
Failing again
If death should take me now
Count my mistakes and let me through
Whisper in my ear
You've taken more than we've received
And the ocean of sorrow is you

It must have taken a lot of security to keep that theatre empty while opeth was on stage.
This is the best song ever in the universe. Fact. ;-)
***** Hey, when I drop this bomb on my clueless friends, they are blown away. Best rock song Ever!
Michael H. Prog actually
Fynn Stephen agreed 1000%!!!
flawless.most complete band ever.such a great song.
I for one totally love this song mostly because it was my first Opeth song ever listened. I'm very happy Opeth did a softer song so I can explore their music as well. Now ... 3-4 years and 5 live shows .... I want more Opeth!
As of today - 9 shows and 2 more to follow later this year. Definitely in love with this band!
every second is a masterpiece, such a beautyful song

Thank you for the suggestion! I will have a look at them :)
Every few years, this song touches me in a different spot. Bring in different memories of the same person. Hits the soul.
Is amazing i love all this i love you a Hug from muy country
This music is so freaking magic !!
I don't know why, but opeth songs always sound better to me in the winter, love hearing after the rain when it's cold.... it's soo perfect !
awesome!!! hi from turkey to sweden!
this song gives me goosebumps

Yes.

My favorite all thime...🎶
What a great song. Able to touch the soul and sooth the heart with the embedding truth.
Listening to this song is so refreshing after constantly hearing rap songs and Lady GaGa on the radio
Me and my wife's 1st dance at our wedding was to this song. She is a Opeth Fan just like me =)
i absolutely agree with you. Mikael is really great composer and musician. and his voice is so candid and soft.
Opeth's songs are so immensely diverse. everything from heavy ass death metal to epic balads to beautiful folk-esque acoustic songs
I once upon a time-
carried a burden inside-
some will ask, goodbye-
a broken line but underlined-
there's an ocean of sorrow in you-
sorrow in me-
saw a movement in their eyes-
said, i no longer knew the way-
given up the ghost-
a passing minds and it's a fear-
in the wait for redemption ahead-
waiting to fail-(...)-
failing again-
if death should take me now-
count my mistakes and let me through-
whisper in my ear-
you've taken more than we've received-
and the ocean of sorrow is you--
They have the melancholy feeling down just right...even better in the longer version.
Lo más hermoso escuchado desde el sur de Colombia un abrazo a todos

@@samtownley9019
They are their own genre.

Dios... Amo esta obra... Demasiada majestuosidad.
great voice!amazing song my favourite track on Watershed!OPETH!!!
Those solos are simply perfect.., this band is simply one of the greatest bands ever
This song gives me the shivers!!!
PRS guitars have a very distinct sound.
Compare this with an Alter Bridge solo. Very beautiful dynamic tone
+diceysnowball should i get Les paul or PRS?
+Khairul Anam what did you go with?
none, im broke, but i will go for PRS, they are truly amazing
Hows your experience? I found PRS to be amazing
- I love this song, beautiful and deep.
Opeth have the ability to make the most brutal complex music while having the sensibility to incorporate aspects of more mellow forms of music. Kepp up the excellent musicianship
this is one of the most beautifulest songs ive ever heard in my life
Has anyone ever had the distinct pleasure of seeing this godly song played live?
Esta música es demasiado perfecta! Like!
2019 and I still love this! Opeth it'll be always my favorite band all time!!! Thank you guys
Makes me relive the 70's!
I, once upon a time
Carried a burden inside
I sung a last goodbye
A broken rhyme I'd underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you
A sorrow in me
Opeth! is amazing! have 3 years listen them.
wat a music early in the morning.. !! this w'd certainly make my day!! :)
God bless you guys.. a relief by some good piece of music after heavy kinda music obsession.. a friend of mine introduced me to Opeth an yr ago.. and I was mesmerized by their creativity yet versatile style of music..!

I'm rolling around on the floor twisting and turning, this is too good to be true !
Unfortunately, it's a reason I don't listen to many of Opeth's song. Growls aren't my thing, but I see and appreciate the genius and creativity of their music.
This is... Geneious! It's great to know that metal isn't dead at all...

Honestly, this is the best top comment i have come across. Akerfeldt is a genius.
call me crazy but does anyone else feel like Akerfeldt is a reborn classical master composer? from the musicians perspective he displays so many examples of classical dynamiscism. the compostitions tend to go through at least 4 or 5 different themes including the growl to clear voice, harmonies, etc. a friend(artist and professor) once told me true art is the marriage between technique and idea. vive le Artist Akerfeldt.

I Love This Song...
what a fucking masterpiece
Opeth's music is very deep I love them
Great lyrics and music 👌
Grande Opeth 💗
There's something magical in the ending solo part...
Opeth realest fan❤️
one of best progressive rock songs of all times.Burden
I understand your situation. Very similar for me. The closest place they've ever come to play near me is 220 miles from my home. But I've seen them four times now, three times in America, and once in Stockholm. And I can't describe to you how awesome the Stockholm show was.

This is my song. THANKS OPETH, THANKS AKERFELDT! #BRAZILOVESOPETH
i love the part 2:58 - 3:57... its amazing how some people can give so much passion in their solo... it's almost like talking through their guitars...
Opeth are brilliant, so is everything they do.
amazing! totally what i need after long and exusting day!
Flawless victory....
Fatality
there was a flaw.....the ending was edited out.
There's another minute or two to the song that you didn't get to see/hear.
I can only imagine how much uruguayans love Opeth...
Gosh,what a melody!
come to colombia guys come on please !
