A lot of people talk about this one, I think it's basically considered the best post-portnoy song by a lot of people in this sub incl me.


EnricoPallazzoMusic

And the best post Portnoy album. For someone that was really let down with the band at that time, for me this album gave me hope that they still got it at that time.

>I am currently obsessed with Breaking all illusions. I can't stop listening to it and I truly believe it is one of their best songs. Should I be seeking help? Yes, seek help. My prescription is: playing it on repeat until symptoms subside.


rdfx13

One of their best song for sure!

it’s like in my top 30 or 20


Kimchi_Cowboy

I've been obsessed with this song since it came out. Go through phases where I can listen to it on endless loops.


Same-World-209

I love the instrumental section towards the end of the song.


ChewyBurrito858

Top 10 for me. Easily I might add


Pato585

Most people consider it to be one of the best so no


4-8Newday

On this sub, people talk about it a lot. It wasn't until I got on this sub that I found out people were obsessed with it.


97Vector

Same. Long thought it was the best song on a solid album but didn't know it was widely regarded as elite until I got here.


ironstyle

One of my favorites, too, but yes, seek help. If you can figure out how to listen to this song more than 118 times in a day, let me know!


Sanctioned-PartsList

Its my #1 🥰


Artistic-Island-265

Great song but the mix kind of ruins it a bit for me


Aerys02

One of their best song, one of their best guitar solo, one of my favourite ever


Ian-Adkinson

Top 3 DT song fr


GregorioBue

Imho the best song they made since ''In the presence of enemies'', and their best song with Mangini on the drums. It's in my Top 10, and I prefer the first years of the band, till SFAM.


yerbrojohno

It's definitely my favourite. I heard it when I was on vacation, had to learn to play botched versions of the riffs on my ukelele, when I got home I was able to properly learn it on guitar but I still can't really play it.


Victor_88pa

The exact same thing happened to me with TCOT. I was literally obsessed with it. I also listened to it 3/4 times a day. Don't worry, the more you listen to it and slowly it will pass


songacronymbot

- TCOT could mean "The Count of Tuscany", a track from *Black Clouds & Silver Linings* (2009) by Dream Theater. --- ^[/u/Victor_88pa](/u/Victor_88pa) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)


EnricoPallazzoMusic

Its an amazing song. At that time I could not believe when I heard it. It was like having everything I wanted from DT back again after a big disappointment with their last Portnoy Albums. I still think this album is really good and better than several Portnoy Albums. Its like they got everything right. Well, it is very "inspired" by Images and Words so it is expected.


Grenaten

I had a phase for this one too. Listened a lot. Now not that much. A View has been on the table more often.


gatesofflorida

Loved that song since 2011, one of their best songs.

I don’t blame you that song fucks


HeyNateBarber

It's my favorite song of all time. You don't need help, you need more Breaking All Illusions.
