Dream Theater - Octavarium: Un himno a la musica

Bueno metaleros, hoy les traigo una cancion que yo creo practicamente tiene la misma talla que Stairway to Heaven de Led zeppelin. Una cancion que es musicalmente completisima, que tiene sonidos desde los mas acusticos y tranquilos, hasta los mas duros y progresivos. Sin mas que decir...OCTAVARIUM, SEÑORES. link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH_9lJxeiXg [I. Someone Like Him] I never wanted to become someone like him so secure Content to live each day just like the last I was sure I knew that This was not for me And I wanted so much more Far beyond what I could see So I swore that I'd Never be someone like him So many years have passed Since I proclaimed My independence My mission My aim And my vision So sevure Content to live each day like it's my last It's wonderful to know That I could be Something more than I dreamed Far beyond what I could see Still I swear that I'm Missing out this time As far as I could tell There's nothing more I need But still I ask myself Could this be everything Then all I swore That I would never be was now So suddenly The only thing I wanted To become To be someone just like him [II. Medicate (Awakening)] A Doctor sitting next to me He asks me how I feel Not sure I understand his questioning He says I've been away a while But thinks he has cured me From a state of catatonic sleep For 30 years Where have I been Eyes open But not getting through to me Medicate me Infiltrate me Side effects appear As my conscience slips away Medicate me Science failing Conscience fading fast Can't you stop what's happening A higher dosage he prescribes But there's no guarantee I feel it starting to take over me I tell him not to be ashamed There's no one who's to blame A second shot A brief awakening I feel the relapse Can't break free Eyes open But not geting through to me [III. Full Circle] Sailing on the sevev seize the day tripper diem's ready Jack the ripper owens wilson phillips and my supper's ready Lucy in the sky with diamond dave's not here I come to save the Day for nightmare cinema hsow me the way to get back home again Running forward Falling back Spinning round and round Looking outward Reaching in Scream without a sound Leaning over Crawling up Stumbling all around Losing my place Only to find I've come full circle Flying off the handle with careful with That axe eugene gene the dance machine Messiah light my fire gabba gabba Hey hey my my generation's home again Running forward Falling back Spinning round and round Looking outward Reaching in Scream without a sound Leaning over Crawling up Stumbling all around Losing my place Only to find I've come full circle [IV. Intervals] First] Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath Remove all obstacles from our path Asking questions Search for clues The answer's been right in front of you Try to break through Long to connect Fall on deaf ears and failes muted breath Loyalty, trust, faith and desire Carries love through each darkest fire Tortured Instanity A smothering hell Try to escape but no avail The calls of admirers Who claimthey adore Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more Innocent victims of merciless crimes Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs Step after step We try controlling our fate When we finally start living it has become too late Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium Trapped inside this Octavarium [V. Razor's Edge] We move in circles Balanced all the while On a gleaming razor's edge A perfect sphere Colliding with our fate Whis story ends where it began Es canción más larga del álbum, y tercera más larga de la banda después de "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence" (42:04) (La segunda es "In The Presence of The Enemies Pt. 1 y 2" (25:38); y la cuarta es "A Change Of Seasons" (23:09)). Su parte final es igual a las notas del min. 7:30 de The Root of All Evil. Octavarium comienza en la misma nota que ésta pero una escala más arriba. Y termina en la misma nota también. En la parte "Intervals" la canción dice "Root", "Second", Third", "Fourth", "Fifth", "Sixth", "Seventh" y "Octave". En "Root" se hace referencia a "The Root of All Evil". En "Second" se hace referencia a "The Answer Lies Within", segunda canción del álbum. Y así consecutivamente hasta "Eight", que hace referencia a Octavarium, sobre todo porque en este "intervalo", James LaBrie grita: "Trapped Inside This Octavarium!" 4 veces. El solo de guitarra del final de "Razor's Edge", ejecutado por John Petrucci es considerado por muchos como uno de los mejores solos de guitarra. link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tyj3sMWe50M link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlatkZ5izX4&feature=related Los teclados de Jordan Rudess aparecen mucho en la canción, como el magnífico solo de teclado por el minuto 12 de la canción. link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aVpQOm3tfM Y por último, pero no menos importante, los acordes vocales de James LaBrie terminan de darle forma a una de las mejores canciones que Dream Theater nos ha traído hasta el momento. link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK3qylwd-M0 link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K09Iul_Jko link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGw8e4wONSI&feature=related No es para ofender a nadie, pero sinceramente me parece un HIMNO, como tantos otros que existen. Buenos eso fue todo, no olviden dejar sus comentarios y sus puntos. Unanse a la comunidad y sostengamos asi dia a dia el legado que nos dejo, nos deja, y nos dejara maiden con su gran heavy metal.
