SMA...waktu dimana mengenal lagu ini. Melalui laptop seorang sahabat mulai kugemari lagu ini dan hampir setiap berkunjung ke kamar kost nya selalu kudengarkan lagu ini dan bermimpi menjadi pemusik handal... Dimanapun kalian semua berada,setiap lagu ini terdengar aku pasti mengingat kalian men (Raja,Denis,Hans) 🤟
This is absolutely one of my favorite songs in the world and I can't stop playing it. I am very sorry to hear of your condition, and I can only hope that there is a treatment that can help you. Thank you for the memories of your father. Also, I remember my dad very well.
As a guitarist, it is impossible not to recognize the greatness of the guitar intro. Not a single note is wasted, every one of them with its meaning, and so beautiful arranged, with its pauses and speed when necessary. Just perfect, for me. What a great masterpiece.

@@DaveDexterMusic I'm sorry you interpreted my comment this way, it was absolutely not my intention to give myself more importance than others just because I play the guitar. I'm just saying that the fact of playing an instrument perhaps makes you understand better how well composed this solo is, and how great Petrucci is as a guitarist. Just my 50 cents.
Petrucci gets a fair bit of stick for lacking emotion, relying on speed etc. Nonsense. He's well capable of this beauty, very Gilmour-like (though Gilmour is of course unmatched). My favourite Petrucci moments tend to be the more melodic and epic solos like Razor's Edge and Best of Times

I never heard about Dream Theatre until my baby brother was gone, and his spirit absolutely carries on. One of his favs, laid him to rest with this beautiful song playing
This performance put me to tears when I first watched it. From the beautiful intro, the crowd's interaction (all those little lights!), the musicianship and the looks on the band's faces, you cannot deny that this was something magical in the lives of everyone there.
Such a great band and song. A close friend passed away recently who introduced me to this band. Dream Theater's music is always going to remind me of him but especially this song. I miss you Justin.
My condolences, buddy. My grandmother passed away a couple months ago, and I was going to sing this song at the memorial, but my parents didn't approve of the idea. So I think of it as a song for her memory everytime I listen to it.
I had a very close cousin who passed away at 23 a few months ago. I couldn't make it to her funeral as we lived thousands of miles apart (I live in Arizona, she lived in Kentucky). I drove down to Mt. Lemmon and played this song for her. Makaylee, you will be missed.
This album is one of the greatest concept albums ever recorded. It's a rollercoaster of emotion, with a deeply touching story that will make you sad, angry and happy throughout. Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory, please give it a listen :).
Respect! 45 years is way too young. Life isn't always fair, but theres nothing to do other than thinking of the good times and keep a positive mindset. Lost my cousin, whom I was very close to. She died of a brain tumor just at age 28, so I know how you feel. Move on, be brave!
Lost my brother to melanoma, Dave said, with your voice and words you can make a difference. And I have...I wrote and recorded a song with Jonni, "Wings of Courage" He was on a break from "Air Supply" and I raced up to Salt Lake to record it. AC 2, sorry for your loss, I can relate. Give my song a listen, or listen to "On the Other Side of the Rainbow" which I wrote for a close friend that passed. Have a great and safe Holiday. Light a candle...sit back and smile with the memories..Peace Jamie
Man he is so f**in talented tho, so many songs he just shines so much passion into. he may be hard to get "into", but he grows on ya, and you realise he's a superb singer. much love!
@@joshstanton267 Most of us know all that already, he's just lost his touch more recently. We loved his older performances, both in studio and live, but now he's just not getting it anymore. :( And that's sad.
Where did we come from? Why are we here? Where do we go when we die? What lies beyond And what lay before? Is anything certain in life?

100%. Score is simply perfect imo... the mixing, the orchestra, the band... and Labrie giving it all his got and having a blast. Raise the Knife (which was removed from UA-cam... sad) is also an absolutely perfect performance from Score.
John Petrucci is the reason I play guitar. That man forever changed the way I look at the guitar, and Dream Theater forever changed the way I look at music entirely. Every time I watch them play I end up feeling both extremely inspired, and like such a mediocre musician lol.
Same here. Petrucci is the reason I started to play guitar, and he and Dream Theater changed my perspective entirely about music. Great guitarist and a great humble man!
The concert is, by far, Dream Theater's "finest hour" - everything came together on the night, by far the most uplifting gig the band have ever done. Simply perfect!
you should take a look at the rendition they do to the Dark Side of the Moon album they did live... Pink Floyd is one of the main reasons Dream Theater exists, as they once said.
So far this is the best live version of this song..Labrie’s flawless vocal, Masterclass JP,, Jordan Rudess’ perfection, John Myung coolness..and Mike Portnoy? God i miss this man
Worst part of losing you forever was the fact that we did not speak to each other in the last 6 months of your life, but that, even we being like that, my friends told me that every time they met you on the streets or on our house, to visit you and my brothers, you would tell them how much you wanted me to be happy and that you were very proud of me. I miss you so much that I can't express with words. People reading this, don't waste your time with the ones whom love you and who you love. Let them know you love them. Let them know you miss them. Let them know you're sorry. Life is short. May you rest in peace, dad. We'll meet someday.
You can say what you want about Dreamtheater changing, becoming mainstream etc. but they've gifted us with some of the most beautiful, pure, magical and heartfelt songs I've ever heard. They are the very reason I've started to play the guitar, to teach myself how to play the piano and becoming an artist myself. I just want to say thank you Petruci, Mike, and Jordan Ruddes for spreading love and sending such a positive message out into such a violent and cruel world. Thank you for being there in our darkest times! :')
I discovered Dream Theater on 2018, now its 2023. Every time i listen to this song i am always overwhelmed by the emotions, feeling like crying, but at the same time a feeling of joy. Especially the ending part of the song, the humming part, it gives me chills going down my spine, i've got goosebumps in my body. Thank you Dream Theater, long live.
Favorite band will always be Queen, second favorite will always be Dream Theater. The guitar player from Dream Theater reminds me of Steve vai but he's actually more enjoyable to listen to. Way more melodic. Just my opinion
Dream Theater, is the best of the best!! Magnificent song and masterfully performed by one of the best metal singers of all time: the great James LaBrie. !! 🎼🎙✌️🤘DT 4EVER
I'm 47 years of age, musician and have only been to 3 big concerts in my life. U2, Genesis and Dream Theater at their tour from "Scenes from a Memory". I'm so glad that i had the chance to see these guys live. This song is heart melting. One goal is to see Muse live in a stadium, which also are made for these big stadium events. This solo and the one from "Best of times" are the greatest ones i ever listened to. Beyond perfect.
thats right..spirit will carries on. and theres only two way. hell or paradise. so if you wanna go to paradise make shahadah. embrace islam. in syaa Allah your spirit will carries on to paradise.

This song is the reason why LaBrie is the voice of Dream Theater. His voice is made for this. Can't imagine any other vocalist personify the meaning and feeling of this song this well.
+Dao Yang i think hes the best shreder, and definitely one of the best guitarist of all time, but you might wanna check tosin from animals as leaders and guthrie govan from steven wilson solo project, both are also really great guitarist :)
+Derbixrace I agree with you. Peturucci does has a lot of feel, but if i compare him with Andy Timmons or David Gilmore you can hear a lot more emotion flows through the music
This song is a masterpiece and this live version is autstanding then as now in 2021. Every band member that night were touched by the hand of god and I think this solo is one the best in music history.
This morning I just known that my friend just died almost 2 years ago. I have lost contact with him many years. He told me about this song. Tonight, I play this song to rewind memories while we play PlayStation together, all my memories about him. So long my friend.
There seems to be a lot of people being exposed to this song, album, or band for the first time so let's clear some stuff up. If you want to know what this song is about keep reading. This song is the climax to a rock opera called Metropolis part 2: Scenes From a Memory. All of the songs interconnect and tell a story. And no, they don't all sound like this. Dream Theater is a progressive Metal band. The whole album is amazing and possibly the best rock opera of the past 40 years, but I'm going to be honest about their genre so you go in knowing what to expect. Metropolis part 2 is about a man named Nicholas (That's the singer) who has vivid dreams about a girl. The album is based on his various trips to a psychiatrist to figure out who she is. (SPOILERS INBOUND) He finds out that he and she are both the same person and he was reincarnated from her. The album delves into why she was murdered, and him finding grief in that she never lived a full life but he did. Very deep, very good, and a lot of fun. This song is the grand climax where he finally understands what he should take away from the whole experience. "Victoria's real, I finally feel, at peace with the girl in my dreams" Victoria, being himself in a past life. So no, it's not about religion, heaven, atheism, anything. It's about a man and his moment of clarity. Sit back, relax, and listen to the whole thing. Hope that helped!
Summed up nicely for the unknowing but herein lies the beauty of music. People can take snippets of lyrics and melody and apply them to their own interpretations. For example, "if I die tomorrow, I'll be alright, because I believe" is the driving message behind the song's subject matter and that is what most cling to for their inspiration. However, that always doesn't work out. One such example is "Every Breath you Take" which over the years, so many identify as a love song when in fact, it was penned by Sting to address obsession and stalking and yet people play it at their own weddings for Christ's sake. lol Anyways, your explanation likely has made some non-DT fans go listen to Metropolis and that's a great thing!
I have been studying about palliative care while listening to this masterpiece, and I started tearing up.. There something about that moment that was capture in this video, that really moves me. I am seriously considering working with terminally ill claintes, partly because the lyrics of this song. Thanks Dream Theater, for being such a wonderful band. The spirrt does carry on!
It's an admirable profession if you choose it. Gotta be pretty tough though, getting to know and care for all those people, only to watch them die. Takes a special person..
I'm a musician and great voice with guitar skill. I appreciated many bands in the world, but this band Dream Theater are both professionals about their music, from the drummer to lead vocals. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My mom passed away on 30/04/2008, and my brother on 03/06/2023, Dedicated this song to both of them and this song is the reason i become the Dream theater fans..
Golden times of Dream Theater. What a perfect concert along with "live at Budokan". Time after time I come back and listen to some of their older stuff.
I was at their concert once. It was a great experience. I knew about Dream Theater before I was even born. My parents love this song. They used it as their marriage song. But now they broke up, and we have a lot of bad memories with this song, aswell as good ones. I cry every time I hear it. It's still an amazing song. I teared up the first second I heard the first line.
This song is for my Grandma... She's the reason why I picked up guitar at a very young age, and when she passed away, I lost my interest in Music, didn't picked up my guitar for months... But one day, when I woke up, I don't know, i've heard her voice downstairs that gave me a reason to move on, and from that day up until now, i'm still playing guitar and making music... Thank you for keeping me sane.
I'm listening to this in a place of my life that it's really tough to be.. This songs brings me to tears, this song have a special meaning to me! Perfect!

I know you miss your father, and so does he to you. But sorry, I'm against you meeting him soon. Keep fighting and believing!
Get well soon bro.

As a guitarist, it is impossible not to recognize the greatness of the guitar intro. Not a single note is wasted, every one of them with its meaning, and so beautiful arranged, with its pauses and speed when necessary. Just perfect, for me. What a great masterpiece.
Petrucci is favourite guitarist. His licks, riffs and increadible speed. Just love the solo. ❤❤

Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
They say, life is too short
The here and the now
And you're only given one shot
But could there be more
Have I lived before
Or could this be all that we've got?
If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend
I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try
If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
Move on, be brave
Don't weep at my grave
Because I am no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear
Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria's real
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I'm here
It's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means
If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on

No reason in the world not to still listen and watch this! It's musical perfection! :D
May be direct ilumination from future...
In 2020, Im still watch this video. In my opinion, this version still best of Spirit Carries On.
Score is pretty damn hard to beat.
sama gan, lebih nyaman denger yg versi score :v

That man changed the way I look at life.
The concert is, by far, Dream Theater's "finest hour" - everything came together on the night, by far the most uplifting gig the band have ever done. Simply perfect!
6:28 - even the security guard can't help but looking who's playing the guitar solo
Every time I listened to this song...Tears start rolling down. That feeling 😭🤘🙌
As a Pink Floyd fan, I am so grateful for finding Dream Theater
This song is heavily inspired by comfortably numb musically, at least imho
Isn't the begining , when Petruccis Guitar starts, sounds like Coming back to Life ?
true
you should take a look at the rendition they do to the Dark Side of the Moon album they did live... Pink Floyd is one of the main reasons Dream Theater exists, as they once said.
Better than never
"This is John petrucci everyone" I really felt that.....
Masih ntn aja lu jirr wkwkw
Iya gila njirr smpai merinding gue
Tp saya suka drumernya yg lama😭
I cried and only cried 😭😭
Touched my soul 😭
Iove them all, my favorite is the bass player.

It so Clear and beautifull melody petrucci's.Wonderfull sound .....

Worst part of losing you forever was the fact that we did not speak to each other in the last 6 months of your life, but that, even we being like that, my friends told me that every time they met you on the streets or on our house, to visit you and my brothers, you would tell them how much you wanted me to be happy and that you were very proud of me.

Can’t even lie, Labrie was amazing in this performance
You can say what you want about Dreamtheater changing, becoming mainstream etc. but they've gifted us with some of the most beautiful, pure, magical and heartfelt songs I've ever heard.

for me this is the best version ...
Perfect music from perfect musicians. The sound of the guitar solo is magnificent
Someone needs to tell NASA to call Voyager back home to Earth - they forgot to engrave this masterpiece onto their golden disc compilation!
Absolutely true men! 👏
awesome comment lol
Whatever other probe we send will reach aliens faster than voyager so hopefully we can put this on voyager 3.
Dream Theater, is the best of the best!! Magnificent song and masterfully performed by one of the best metal singers of all time: the great James LaBrie. !! 🎼🎙✌️🤘DT 4EVER
I'm 47 years of age, musician and have only been to 3 big concerts in my life. U2, Genesis and Dream Theater at their tour from "Scenes from a Memory". I'm so glad that i had the chance to see these guys live. This song is heart melting. One goal is to see Muse live in a stadium, which also are made for these big stadium events. This solo and the one from "Best of times" are the greatest ones i ever listened to. Beyond perfect.
great guitarist and a very humble dude
That Myung's grace and finesse people will barely notice: that harmonic on the second last note at 9:34. Wonderful!
such an amazing bassist
The best bassist in the world
This live solo and the guitar outro is so much better than the studio version. Perfectly played!
"If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on"
E ai galera da Fraternidade

It's March 2019 and i still keep watch this song 😍
Like mine
@@jay-pwon8330 good
but still this Mangini destroys this beautiful song every time he plays it
They are playing it this tour, go see it!
And this is May 2019 and I still watch this song.... next..
Lyrics
Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
They say, life is too short
The here and the now
And you're only given one shot
But could there be more
Have I lived before
Or could this be all that we've got?
If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend
I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try
If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
Move on, be brave
Don't weep at my grave
Because I am no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear
Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria's real
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I'm here
It's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means
If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
This song is the reason why LaBrie is the voice of Dream Theater. His voice is made for this. Can't imagine any other vocalist personify the meaning and feeling of this song this well.
Superb Song
Superb Guitar's man
Superb Singer
Superb Rock's Band
you forgot that they have a superb drummer. And, Beth you look superb, and I look superb......bla bla bla bla!
@@blutomosc9686 c'mon, they have also a superb bass player
@@francescopiccioni9241 Got me Francesco . You 100% right!
@@blutomosc9686 John Myung is by far the most underrated member of the band, yet he's probably one of the top 10 bass players alive
What about the superb pianist?
Listening to this song and shedding tears is worth being born into a human being.
"...you are once again surrounded by brilliant white light..."
Open your eyes nicolas...
Cloves Heck heughh!
*static noises*
Oh wait, too early
and as u can imagine,,,,,certainly around the world....
Let the light surround you
oh damn you got me tearing up now
and people say petrucci has no feeling, im so sad about those guys who cant see
***** That .. is the saddest comment ... that is just so so sad.
Petrucci is by far the most technically advanced guitarist. I love his playing! Anyone saying petrucci sucks are nit pickers
+Dao Yang i think hes the best shreder, and definitely one of the best guitarist of all time, but you might wanna check tosin from animals as leaders and guthrie govan from steven wilson solo project, both are also really great guitarist :)
+Derbixrace I agree with you. Peturucci does has a lot of feel, but if i compare him with Andy Timmons or David Gilmore you can hear a lot more emotion flows through the music
+Derbixrace he doesnt need to,,Petrucci already put alot of feeling writing the song and playing the guitar
I am so happy Portnoy is back
In this song, Mike Portnoy shows us that he always makes Dream Theater alive. You guys never changed in my heart 😭
Easily one of the most beautiful and heart-felt songs ever written in history
This song is a masterpiece and this live version is autstanding then as now in 2021. Every band member that night were touched by the hand of god and I think this solo is one the best in music history.
Master piece, miss this kind of music now day
This morning I just known that my friend just died almost 2 years ago. I have lost contact with him many years. He told me about this song. Tonight, I play this song to rewind memories while we play PlayStation together, all my memories about him. So long my friend.
LOVE this song!! And definitely my favorite version...the intro, Mike Portnoy, John Petrucci, etc. I can't believe ANYONE could dislike it!
Petrocelli???
@@GetFactual
Correction made. Thanks!
There seems to be a lot of people being exposed to this song, album, or band for the first time so let's clear some stuff up. If you want to know what this song is about keep reading.
This song is the climax to a rock opera called Metropolis part 2: Scenes From a Memory. All of the songs interconnect and tell a story. And no, they don't all sound like this. Dream Theater is a progressive Metal band. The whole album is amazing and possibly the best rock opera of the past 40 years, but I'm going to be honest about their genre so you go in knowing what to expect.
Metropolis part 2 is about a man named Nicholas (That's the singer) who has vivid dreams about a girl. The album is based on his various trips to a psychiatrist to figure out who she is. (SPOILERS INBOUND) He finds out that he and she are both the same person and he was reincarnated from her. The album delves into why she was murdered, and him finding grief in that she never lived a full life but he did. Very deep, very good, and a lot of fun.
This song is the grand climax where he finally understands what he should take away from the whole experience. "Victoria's real, I finally feel, at peace with the girl in my dreams" Victoria, being himself in a past life.
So no, it's not about religion, heaven, atheism, anything. It's about a man and his moment of clarity. Sit back, relax, and listen to the whole thing. Hope that helped!
Summed up nicely for the unknowing but herein lies the beauty of music. People can take snippets of lyrics and melody and apply them to their own interpretations. For example, "if I die tomorrow, I'll be alright, because I believe" is the driving message behind the song's subject matter and that is what most cling to for their inspiration. However, that always doesn't work out. One such example is "Every Breath you Take" which over the years, so many identify as a love song when in fact, it was penned by Sting to address obsession and stalking and yet people play it at their own weddings for Christ's sake. lol Anyways, your explanation likely has made some non-DT fans go listen to Metropolis and that's a great thing!
wow. thanks man, just listened to this a few days ago. sounds awesome, I'll listen to the whole album. ♥️
Its how i take, that's the beauty of music
Great explaining 😁
@@rizamaulana5020 thanks i just copied and pasted actually from the lyrics video bcos this comment is very fascinating
James was on FIRE this entire concert. Wish he could still sing like this. Must have been really something to be there.
This song is so powerful...it’s chills me all the time. It is an huge hymn to life...is special.
This song is one of my favorite song that can make me cry..i like this kind of music..god bless you DREAM THEATHER
just saw them last night (april 2019) - phenomenal show, especially the second half where they played this album in its entirety
Saw them play it in Detroit, April 2nd I believe. Great show!
This group changed my life. (Thanks for being there)
John Myung moved! I saw it! I heard the legends but never believed them!
The description before you click "Show more" is perfect.
I have been studying about palliative care while listening to this masterpiece, and I started tearing up.. There something about that moment that was capture in this video, that really moves me. I am seriously considering working with terminally ill claintes, partly because the lyrics of this song. Thanks Dream Theater, for being such a wonderful band. The spirrt does carry on!
It's an admirable profession if you choose it. Gotta be pretty tough though, getting to know and care for all those people, only to watch them die. Takes a special person..
The solo guitar part brings tears, remembering those loved ones already gone.
@5:55
No matter what gig, Luna Park or this one, it always hit me 😭
Bless these artists!
I'm a musician and great voice with guitar skill. I appreciated many bands in the world, but this band Dream Theater are both professionals about their music, from the drummer to lead vocals. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
JP: the melodies you make is just.... brilliant, genius so emotional...and what else words to say????????
"Move on, be brave
Don`t weep at my grave
Because I`m no longer here
But please never let
Your memory of me disappear"
Heroic rock. I love DT. Going to St. Pete FL show in December. I can't wait!
Thank you for the music, Dream Theater!
My mom passed away on 30/04/2008, and my brother on 03/06/2023, Dedicated this song to both of them and this song is the reason i become the Dream theater fans..
Golden times of Dream Theater. What a perfect concert along with "live at Budokan". Time after time I come back and listen to some of their older stuff.
Can you please tell me where and when was this concert? Thanks mate.
@@jovannisuperino3788 It was either in 2005 or 2006 during their 20th anniversary tour in New York (Radio City Music Hall).
These guys never cease to amaze me with their ability to create great music.
I was at their concert once. It was a great experience. I knew about Dream Theater before I was even born. My parents love this song. They used it as their marriage song. But now they broke up, and we have a lot of bad memories with this song, aswell as good ones. I cry every time I hear it. It's still an amazing song. I teared up the first second I heard the first line.
This song is for my Grandma... She's the reason why I picked up guitar at a very young age, and when she passed away, I lost my interest in Music, didn't picked up my guitar for months... But one day, when I woke up, I don't know, i've heard her voice downstairs that gave me a reason to move on, and from that day up until now, i'm still playing guitar and making music... Thank you for keeping me sane.
I tried to critique this song.
But found not even a single reason for it.
That's how beautiful this art is,.
I shed so much tears, I simply forgot how to cry. Thank you guys for being so great.
The best live performance of that masterpiece ever❤️
Some things happens just once a lifetime. But thank God they happen👍🤩🎤🥁🎸🎹💥
Like this song forever
Who's listen this song in August 2019 ?

Me too

Hadir !

In my opinion, this is the best live broadcast of Dream Theater's songs, Portnoy's presence in this song is irreplaceable ⚡
June 27, 2019 i heard again this song... Still amazing band... My fave band when i was at age of 20's and still great..
THANK YOU, PETRUCCI.

There is so much of Eddie in John’s guitar playing. Love this performance!
