I wish Steve Wilson would 'create' with this band once again.

so glad RP turned me on to PT. They are so great on their own merit plus there are elements that bring to mind my old fave, Genesis.....
it's hard to concentrate on work, here! :)

Every track I hear from these guys is most excellent. Thanks RP for introducing me to this band.

Hey horstmann! How goes? I could write a song about the glory of violent revolution and the deep sadness of lost comrades but I'm not a revolutionary and I don't like political violence. :-) I simply know a lot about it. If he is managing to keep his private life off the public radar, good for him. The guy is such a workaholic that I wonder if he has time for a private life! |

I think "Hatesong" alone is justification that Steven is indeed a sensitive guy who suffered at the loss of a relationship, one that appears to have not been ended by him. Disappear of this album is also very good at showing how insignificant he felt in his relationship(s). |

Me as well. Remember Me Lover sums up my divorce. Note that the song includes both sides of the story; the verses are his comments, the chorus is her response. Very clever song, brilliantly written. |

Song describes the typical, dysfunctional way most people behave within personal relationships, starting with self.

Relayer wrote:I lived through the exact same situation, so the song does mean a lot to me as well. Interestingly enough, another track on the album reminds me of the relationship as well - Remember Me Lover. Here's an excerpt: It's so hard to get along, I always know what you're going to say. And this too, I hated you, I wish you learn to keep your mouth shut. I've been through this with you about a hundred times. Agree to disagree, start again with our lives. And every single morning I wake up and you're still there, but tomorrow you will be alone and that is all you deserve. Remember Me Lover is a powerful song. Sadly, for me, I can relate to it 100%. |

Based on this song alone I would say Stupid Dream or Lightbulb Sun or even Blackfield II (different band, but still led by PT frontman Steven Wilson). If you enjoy a wide array of PT moods I always suggest Deadwing or In Absentia. Signify is MY personal favorite, but it is a very trippy, atmospheric album, and I wouldn't recommend it to many people as a first purchase. |

Magnificent, very sad song. I see no-one below mentioned the beautiful guitar solo yet. So here's my two cents: the guitar solo is beautiful :-)
