Man, it's total average. If you ever listened to 90's or older music, you should notice this. Not saying it's bad, just not the amazing stuff so many of you are making of it.
I was recommended this band in 2016 by my then friend whom I would later go on to date and then separate due to the unhealthiness of the relationship and this was the first song I heard of this band. I immediately fell in love with the song and the band... Years later this song is still timelessly beautiful and brings back memories.
@Ayushi Ghosh Listening to music which was introduced to you by someone whom you go on to date and then end it with them is a weird feeling. You long for the happy moments with them. You miss them. You make new memories with it too. You don't want to listen to the music. But you want to listen to it at the same time. It's strangely beautiful.
Always in my thoughts you are Always in my dreams you are I got your voice on tape, I got your spirit in a photograph Always out of reach you are Cold inside my arms you are Simple like a child you are I remember when you took my hand and led me through the rain Down inside my soul you are The more I show the way I feel The less I find you give a damn The more I get to know The less I find that I understand Innocent, the time we spent Forgot to mention we're good friends You thought it was the start of something beautiful? Well think again. Mother lost her looks for you Father never wanted you I trust to love and then I find you never really felt the same There's something in your heart so cruel
ive always heard it as "i thought it was the start of something beautiful" as that makes a hell of a lot more sense.... the song is about a guy who fell in love with a girl that led him on just long enough to break his heart. its about him coming to the realization that what he hoped was going to be a wonderful relationship turned out to be garbage because she didnt care about him and she wasnt even the person he thought she was. the realization is on him, not on her. if you listen to it as "you thought" then it becomes.... well it makes no sense, the whole point is that *he* thought it was the start of something beautiful. it becomes hateful instead of just sorrowful. it becomes him rubbing her nose in a failed relationship that she clearly wasnt interested in in the first place. its his hopes that have been crushed, not hers. in truth he doesnt really say a pronoun in that line anywhere in the song and its just our own mental need to have complete thoughts that places it there for us. you can draw either conclusion. i just think "i" makes more sense with the rest of the song then "you"
I discovered this song at a time I was partying with my best friends every single weekend. At this time, I put the only woman I ever loved at the train station after (and before) that kind of amazing weekends. Crying as I was watching the train getting away. She left and for a while I couldn't go to this particular train station or listening to this amazing tune without getting puzzled in thousand little parts. This took place 2 years ago and it still shakes my stomach up and down.
Forever and ever dedicated fan of Sir Steven Wilson! 20 years,awesome songs,awesome lyrics,awesome live concerts,awesome bands! Admiration and respect!
The arrangement in this song is astonishing. 9/8 is a very odd time signature, but the melody, harmony and overall flow of the music is just so natural!
@@turanyasar3375 and we define those specific chemicals as love. Technically nothing exists we just set a definition for it which brings it into existence into our minds. Dont try to be deep.
@Allie X on point! also pop music normaly is mediocre synthesizer drum-kit with some electro-beats and harmonies put on top. Which, in my opinion, makes pop songs regularly appear shallow, superficial ... fake ... it is just the PLASTIC-image that pop-music has ... Whilst THIS song here is played and instrumentalized by a bunch of real artists/professionels. And the music itself gives sooooo much heart and soul to the lyrics. That is something pop music is just not capable of i guess. Anyways have a nice day and enjoy some great music ;)

Steve Wilson should be sainted, knighted, and written in all our history books as one of the best prog rock/metal artists to have inhabited this goddamn world
I recall discovering PT around 2010, suddenly their concert in my city was announced, I attended knowing only the I Absentia Album. The first time I listened to this song was during the concert, one of the best feelings ever. I still get goosebumps remembering that moment.
I discovered this gem recently thanks to a good friend. I'm completely addicted to this song - I've listened to it maybe 50 times just today and I can't stop. Still unable to understand the time signature 🤔
I listen to this. My mind is empty and I'm smiling. The second half of the song always gets a hold of me. Mesmerizing. After more than a decade since I discovered them, I'm still in awe of Porcupine Tree.
been listening to this since past 4-5 days, 4:45 on wards gives me this unusual feeling, a feeling of happiness and sadness at the same time and i love it
I have a really hard crush on this girl and i was in the mood of listening to something a little bit more romantic... I recently got into Porcupine Tree, then i came across this song expecting to reinsure my feelings, however, it just reinsured my insecurities... Loved it
@@gureyy9816 what do you mean by that? What life should he get? Yours? Mine? His? What does signature in this song has to do with him having none? I have so many questions.
xD THANK YOU - i'm a dilettante (dilettantic?) drummer and ... well it's the same with most TOOL songs xD i have the sequences in my head, could sing along every instruments part, i really FEEL the music but once i start to move my limbs (Snare-Hand, Bass-Foot, Cymbal-Hand) to follow the rythme i get totally lost ^^ i knew it was some odd signatures but i fail to hear/count out those by myself.
Maravilloso. Es una lástima que temas así se encuentren perdidos entre los millones de canciones que pueblan youtube. Esta composición brilla con luz propia. Por cierto, el disco entero es una genialidad; hasta la portada es única.
This song is just too beautiful. The bass just gets me every single time. Thank you PT for this one. It helped me get through a difficult stretch. "I remember when you took my hand and led me through the rain Down inside my soul, you are" Goosebumps!!
I literally have only just heard of and started listening to these guys today (5th Dec 2018). How and why the F have I not stumbled across them before!!??
listening to this song, and specially after 5 mins, I remembered "" some feelings I used to have when was young(er) where there was some bright future/hope on the horizon and I felt first good 2 feel this again and bad after because is so long since I felt it
If you like this particular part (as I do for sure😁) you also should apriciate Marillion” with albums like “Clutching at straws” - “Fugazi”. - “Misplaced Childhood” This part of the song always reminds me of these albums. To me the part has a “Marillion vibe “to it. 😀
+Scottie McCarthy "...this is fucking music" = This is how music should be. or "...this is fucking music" = this is good music to be played while fucking. Either way, the answer is yes.
I don't know how and at what point in his life Steven Wilson made this absolutely brilliant Piece of music but whatever, whenever it is that he did, he was in that moment completely magnificent. Thank you Steven, whenever I get back to this, I realise that I'm made for better things. This song makes me, me.
this song drives me crazy. the mix of epic guitars and beautiful keyboards in the secon half of the theme, and the contagious voice of the master Steven Wilson tears me apart. i hear it again and again... Wilson rules! In Barcelona Be Prog festival this july. Anxious to see the band again.
Paragraphs I also like the start of the end of the start of something beautiful so I can think about putting the start of the start of something beautiful back on
One of those songs that you can hear a million times and not get tired of
+Greg Smith That is correct !
listening it for the 20th time today, what should I do next....
I feel you.
listen to it again
These songs will never be pop songs because of how non repeitive it is and doesn't connect with the average listener on the first listen
That middle-part is so insanely beautiful it's absurd.
Unreal
Man, it's total average. If you ever listened to 90's or older music, you should notice this. Not saying it's bad, just not the amazing stuff so many of you are making of it.
@@Quinceps shhh let people enjoy things
And the piece just before that is the start of something beautiful
@@The_Onion No. They’ve had enough 😚
This song is just perfect. Could listen to it forever.
This song is such a brilliant journey. I don't think I can ever get tired of listening to it

Same haha.. this song hits hard when he was the one to leave me
😊
This song hits me in ways I cannot express.
Always in my thoughts you are
Always in my dreams you are
I got your voice on tape, I got your spirit in a photograph
Always out of reach you are
Cold inside my arms you are
Simple like a child you are
I remember when you took my hand and led me through the rain
Down inside my soul you are
The more I show the way I feel
The less I find you give a damn
The more I get to know
The less I find that I understand
Innocent, the time we spent
Forgot to mention we're good friends
You thought it was the start of something beautiful?
Well think again.
Mother lost her looks for you
Father never wanted you
I trust to love and then I find you never really felt the same
There's something in your heart so cruel

+Moonchild Thanks!
I thought... he is singing for a dead girl...
Claudia N Yuriko singing for a girl he was hoping to build a relationship with but then he finds she doesnt feel the same at all
How can you make someone feel so much with just music. It's a journey. It's therapeutic. I'm speechless.
4:45-6:08 is the single greatest thing I've ever heard.
TheScytheman666 Agreed, always come back to this.
TheScytheman666 this part is like that moment when you realise and feel good from within :)
TheScytheman666 yes indeed............feels like some mindfuck!
+TheScytheman666 I just came to this youtube link so that i could find someone making comment about the music piece ,, 4:45- 6:08. It feels ethereal!
+TheScytheman666 Are you married ? It could be the start of something beautiful ;o)
One of the best songs of all time. "The more I get to know the less I find I understand."
I put this on my "songs i want to be played at my funeral" list.
Awgieable ahhaahahah

True. I just woke up and realised I dreamt that part in a loop and was crying in my sleep the whole time. Powerful stuff

yes. but chorus was in 5/8. i wud hv lyked it much more if they cud maintain the chorus in the same sign.
Well, 9/8 is really just a fast waltz.
@@RustyWalker That's not how the song uses it though. They don't do 3 groups of 3.
@@RustyWalker It's closer to 123-1234-12, a lot of bumps but you don't actually notice it's ending on upbeat
Gavin is the key behind this
I'm listening to all of his songs and it makes me feel strange since he got married yesterday..
Congrats Genius to have found the love of your life 😍😍
there isnt something called love, just chemicals.

This band is amazing! Also song is something beatiful
damn that bass.
Fun fact, Steven played it for most of the song
One of my favourite songs of them
Steve Wilson should be sainted, knighted, and written in all our history books as one of the best prog rock/metal artists to have inhabited this goddamn world
He needs salvation first before he becomes a Saint. He's currently an atheist.
steve wilson = boy wonder
Oh no, the last thing he needs is a reason to be more pretentious than he already is. He's a good songwriter, nothing more, nothing less

I own over 100 individual Steven Wilson releases on CD/Vinyl and Cassette yet this album might just be my favourite.
Deadwing to me is his best album
+0wnz0rz888 Deadwing is friendlier than the others.
Friendler?
MantiaRyche mhm. Less hard on the emotions. Think when a book is reviewed as an "easy read", Deadwing is such when compared to other SW works.
True, its more easily accessible to the mainstream music crowd.
One of my fav of Porcupine Tree, not to say the best one for me.
I have a really hard crush on this girl and i was in the mood of listening to something a little bit more romantic... I recently got into Porcupine Tree, then i came across this song expecting to reinsure my feelings, however, it just reinsured my insecurities... Loved it
this band is such a breath of fresh air.. n so much more i cant put into words..
7:42 the end of something beautiful..:)
The end of the start of something beautiful.
The beautiful end of the start of something beautiful
The beautiful end of the beautiful start of something beautiful
beautifully finishing with the beatiful end of the beautiful song, beautiful start of something beautiful's beautiful finish
the beautiful beauty of something beautifully beautiful
Why does it seem I hear the best music during the most trying seasons of my life....?
Wils Getchell because thats when you are at your most honest state, which makes it easier for the music to find you
jin hong i believe too...
Because thats when you need it most. Stay strong
Beautiful music is that warm light that you need when it's cold and dark
Because it was written to find you there
This song was far ahead of its time having just discovered it
why isn't anybody talking about how superb this solo is @ 6:05?!?! It's my favorite 😊
Only just come across PT. Cannot imagine how I have lived without it! 4:30 onwards is out of this world!
Yeah, that is sacred
7 minutes of pure beauty
This song is....something beautiful
0:00 to 2:09 9/8
2:10 to 2:47 5/8
2:48 to 3:40 9/8
3:41 to 4:18 5/8

So beautiful but sad
4:50 till the end.... can't explain how it makes me feel!
We all know it !
Really sad but beautiful

So much feeling. The world need more love songs like this, It ain't always happy you know :)
how have I not heard of this before..its amazing. classic rock influences with cutting edge. words are poetic!

Such a deep song. Amazing.
I love this band. I only got into them this year if you can believe it
a very good music ^^
It really feels as though writing a song in a 7/8 timing is natural when it's totally not. Genius writing.
They learnt that by being Rush fans...
But it’s in 9/8
Always in my thoughts you are
this song drives me crazy. the mix of epic guitars and beautiful keyboards in the secon half of the theme, and the contagious voice of the master Steven Wilson tears me apart. i hear it again and again... Wilson rules! In Barcelona Be Prog festival this july. Anxious to see the band again.
I'm curious about the lyrics, he is singing for a dead girl?
+Claudia N Yuriko He sings about an unrequited love. to someone who dismissed his deepest feelings of love.
the intro to this song is the start of something beautiful, well technically its the start of the start of something beautiful but you catch my drift
Paragraphs I also like the start of the end of the start of something beautiful so I can think about putting the start of the start of something beautiful back on
