    There are MANY more songs ( ballads?) like this in their discography.

    The sound of the organ and guitars does remind me of the one and only: Focus. A famous Dutch progrockband from the seventies. They were groundbreaking in those early days. Guitarist Jan Akkerman had (and still has) a specific tone and technique that was considered by his pears of that time to be world class. And of course very seventies indeed. Mikael Akerfeldt did, if I'am not mistaken, mention Focus several times as one of his inspirations.

    The thing is with Opeth and most non metal fans they hear the Growls/Gutterals and instantly say “nope not for me” then turn off.. and it’s them people out there missing songs like this! There was a time when Mikael had a growl/scream what the devil would be envious of.. but he’s cleans are stunning genuinely one of the melodic voices ever! It’s always good seeing other people enjoying your favourite band cool reaction! I look forward too the next! Also I think it’s time too heat these guys live I strongly recommend masters apprentices live at shepards bush!

    @bubblegum0912 2 роки тому +1

    Don't know if it's been mentioned yet but the ending of the song, when they were recording it someone detuned the guitar as he was playing as a joke, that "ah ha ha ha ha" at the end is Mikael laughing about it, ended up keeping it in the song! 💪

  • @darkphoenix2
    @darkphoenix2 2 роки тому +9

    I never really paid attention to the acoustics at the end, the guitars going out of tune was a cool effect, and combined with the laugh blending into that clicking sound, I bet it leads into the next track so well.
    There are still several great tracks to choose from. I still think Windowpane deserves its turn, but I also want to see The Funeral Portrait. Shit man...Opeth.

    • @bretmorris830
      @bretmorris830 2 роки тому +3

  • @bernhardkrickl3567
    @bernhardkrickl3567 2 роки тому +2

    The outro is Mikael playing the acoustic guitar while someone else is slowly detuning the strings one by one and so the sound gets worse and worse until Mikael couldn't take it anymore and started laughing. They then cut the laughter up into that staccato sound and it leads into the next track.

    You both should check out “In My Time Of Need” from the Damnation album since you really liked this one. Also “Face Of Melinda” from Still Life has some of the same feel, which is more subdued Opeth than most of the songs you’ve reacted to so far. I’d also like to recommend a couple more from Blackwater Park… “Harvest” and “The Funeral Portrait.”

    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
    Sorrow in me
    Saw 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
