After listening to most every piece of work done by PT, I'd put this album (album?) at the top of the list.

Everything just seems to come together

The lack of subtlety in the lyrics in this song, and the rest of this album, kind of bothers me.  Still a fan of the album, but sometimes I try not to listen to the lyrics too hard with this band.  Obviously amazingly talented musicians otherwise.

One of the PT songs that always fits in well ... at home, at work or very loud in the car.

Cadence and time signature alone is worth high rating...but then fixing it up with excellent harmonies and musicianship...then you got an amazing tune.

I believe this song is about pining for the past. A lost childhood innocence if you will. Something we are all sentimental about to a certain degree...

Gawd! I remember watching these guys open for Opeth! (Portland, Oregon) 

That was definately a show that blew your hair back!

Woot!

For an alternate adult reality, I invite you to see the US television drama:  Sons of Anarchy.

Is caring about others' children an exercise in sentimentality? 

Isn't pining for alert, creative and active children an exercise in sentimentality?

 

Besides, it sounds nicer than let's say.... Aesthetics.

I think it's possible that you haven't seen very many album covers if you think that is the "best cover ever".  Well, it's all a matter of personal taste anyhow.  Quite a good tune, at any rate.

"Stoned in the mall the kids play and in this way wish away each day." Is a profound observation and a great line for a song.

Must be the mood of a gray rainy evocative day here in NYC. I just bumped this to a 9. Too high for this? No, PT has always cared about its music, no slackers them, in this case they get a lot of song out of a little music.

If you don't want to be old, I'd suggest you hurry up and die.  And now that you can't blame your parents anymore, blame the Boomers.  We're probably guilty of whatever it was anyway.

I was wishing for the last 20 minutes that the next song would be a PT song, and I only had to wait 5 or 6 songs.  You rock, Bill.

yup, just came back to my office, saw the playlist and this forum and did the same. 

after all, RP is my best music with Bills soft voice reminding me that I have a good connection.

Clive Deamer is a great drummer but not in the same league as Gavin Harrison.
Clive would be fortunate to receive some lessons from the professors (Gavin or Neil).{#Drummer}
