Renes59, zou je hier eens je mening over willen geven?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTSt58Xelz8Is een nummer van Ayreon, cd The Human Equation.
Is een onderdeel van een heel groot verhaal, die 2 cd's beslaat. Elke stem weerspiegelt een emotie van de hoofdpersoon (James Labrie).
Je vindt het denk ik te bombastisch, maar mogelijk kun je de muzikaliteit wel waarderen. Dit is een cd geweest waardoor ik mij meer in progressieve muziek gaan verdiepen (terwijl ik altijd een grote afkeer van hardrock en metal had).
De zus van Floor Jansen, Irene doet trouwens ook mee.
CiteerThe album explores the idea of psychological rebirth, and follows the story of a man who, after falling into a coma following a car accident, is confronted with his past, his emotions, and his current situation as he lays trapped inside his own mind. The circumstances surrounding the accident are mysterious, as the man ("Me", portrayed by James LaBrie) ploughed into a tree on a deserted road in broad daylight. Following this, he slips into a twenty-day coma, with each day represented by a single song. Each song follows a slightly different format, though there are major common themes, such as the presence of Me's manifest emotions in his dream world (including Fear portrayed by Mikael Åkerfeldt, Reason portrayed by Eric Clayton, and Pride portrayed by Magnus Ekwall); the presence of Me's Wife (Marcela Bovio) and Best Friend (Arjen Anthony Lucassen) at his bedside; and the past events that Me is forced to reflect on.
The plot builds from Me's early broken state to his eventual rebirth as a new and better man. His own dark past; in which he suffered beneath an abusive Father (Mike Baker), was driven to become merciless by school bullies, and eventually betrayed his closest friend for his own benefit; is intertwined with the plot surrounding Wife and Best Friend, eventually revealing the cause of the accident: Me had witnessed the two sharing an intimate moment, and had swerved his car into a tree in his despair. The three eventually come clean and forgive each other, leading Me to conquer his negative emotions and escape his nightmarish prison.
