Day 51 - Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons
Another Dream Theater track, the epic, 23 minutes+, A Change of Seasons. Some great themes, some great lyrics:
I’m sick of all you hypocrites
Holding me at bay
And I don’t need your sympathy
To get me through the day

Day 50 - Dream Theater - Trial Of Tears
Work and some real bad hay fever restrained me from posting some songs the last few days. In this tempo I will be posting song number 10.000 somewhere in 2063.
Today its finaly raining, so goodbye to hay fever. At least for today. My song choice for today is from the same Dream Theater album as in day 49, Falling Into Infinity. It’s the epic Trail of Tears, and particular posted for the first part of the song: It’s Raining.
Its raining, raining,
On the streets of new york city
Yeah, here in Alkmaar too.
Day 49 - Dream Theater - Peruvian Skies
When I started reading fantasy novels I went looking for music that would fit playing while reading. “You should try some symphonic rock”, someone said. So I went to the record store, picked the latest release from the biggest name and went home with Falling Into Infinity by Dream Theater. It was love at first sight. Or first hear.
Ten years later I stopped reading fantasy novels. They’re always telling the same story. But I’m still listening to Dream Theater who’s albums never sound the same. And despite of what the critics say I consider Falling Into Infinity to be one of their best albums.
About this/me
About this:
Inspired by Tuuur, who was inspired by Glenn Case, I will be posting some song of the day posts over here. This blog is written in (poor) English, but since I’m from the Netherlands there will be some Dutch songs and/or lyrics passing by.
About me:
I live in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, a short train ride from Amsterdam. I like open source software, open-minded people and bars open all night.
