James sings "wait a minute man" exactly like Alanis Morissette does on her song Right Through You. I wonder if he was inspired by that song



Also, they're both Canadian



hmmm

Dream Theater has always been a bit cheesy but on albums like this, it just makes me cringe too hard to listen to all the way through



Makes me want to yeet myself right out my window ala Clockwork Orange



Might lower my rating



Also yeah, Canadians all are telepathically connected, it's why I never visit Canada - can't trust em

^ that line always amused me, because it completely kills the tension and "bruality" of that section. Especially being the last line before the solo section

Dude the first time I heard that part I laughed out loud. In tough guy growl metal vocals he's screaming about how everyone was okay.

"Dude, it was crazy! It was a dark stormy night, and we were involved in a horrific car crash, and there was carnage everywhere... and the most wicked, sinister part? EVERYONE LIVED!" :O

That lyric is a letdown for sure, but I still think that the song is amazing.

Hahaha, that's so laughably bad. The song rules however, it's such a complicated relationship with it
