The Reviews about A Change Of Seasons (page 2/ 4)
------ performed by Dream Theater
X Japan vs DreamTheater | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/10/08
Hi-five to every single DT fan here. I've been listening to both groups for a while, and we all have to admit they are all good musicians. For instance, DT is by far the most technical group I've seen in many, many years. Sure, we have Steve Vai, Paul Gilbert, Planet X and other guys that are excellent shredders. But to perfectly understand my point of view, just watch a X Japan concert dvd, then go with a DT concert dvd. You'll see that the DT guys know their instruments like no other.
For the "Art of life" debate, it was created in '92, if memory serves me correctly. "A change of seasons" was suppose to feature in the '92 Images and Words cd, but was latter released. For the extreme fans of DT (I'm one of them!), "A change of seasons" is on the Images and Words demo cd.
Plus, if you take a look at the '90's context, X Japan (I'm sorry fot those who really like it) just sounds like the other "hair metal" groups, but in little better and little more creative. DT is, remember that, a progressive metal band. Based more on music - somehow, they did not forget the lyrics!
...and for those saying Mike Portnoy isn't that good, well know this... he was the youngest ever drummer to be inducted to the modern drummer hall of fame, in the early 2000.

zzz...
that's all I have to say. Sure, this song is great on the first couple of listens but then gets sort of... I don't know,boring. It just doesn't do it for me anymore. Oh well, at least I still have 'Art of Life'
Wheres the connection? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/7/08
I've been looking into this a bit and i see no similarities between this and Art of Life, i will admit i like Art of Life much better (no offence I just can't get into the whole DT sound, although they are all amazing artists) but both songs have like no connection to eachother i think Art of Life was made before but DT has never stated any influence from X Japan so if their are any similarities it's just coincedince, like think about how many different songs have ever been produced, I'm sure if 2 sound the same in any way and 1 got famous, the other one would too so it's not that hard to believe both bands have no connection is it?
dream theater and x japan | Reviewer: bearth | 2/7/08
i both like dream theater and x japan..
but dream theater sure is better than x japan! on their drummers, mike portnoy is obviously better. Sure, x japan's drummer can play fast doublebass patterns, but so can mike portnoy. those who say x japan's drummer is better than portnoy, go listen to Glass Prison! Portnoy can also do fast doublebass patterns, plus he has more creative fill-ins, and out-of-this-world time signatures and time signature changes!

c'mon no mater what any idiot says about his freaky asian "art" DT are the best, no one could outstand a solo of any of their artists, asian people are stupid, they thi nk they are good but the only thing they do is copy things. D.T. FTW!!!
A brilliant song no | Reviewer: John | 1/24/08
Amazing composition isn't it?
I mean who would've thought that a band that usually focuses more on technical expertise would create a song this perfect.
This song is the perfect blend of feel, melody, technical mastery and poetic songwriting. And whats so amazing is how James Labrie's voice suits the lyrics. The vocal line is so well thought of. And well executed too.
Petrucci's guitar work ,, needless to say, brilliant! some heavy riff,s some jazzy interludes
and some absolutely brilliant solos :)
John Myung,, as creative as ever,, beautiful patterns, Portnoy needless to say wonderful stuff,, very creative drummer,, people are so taken up by his skill they forget he is a very CREATIVE drummer more than anything else!!!
and Moore,, fantastic work,, stunning keyboard workk,, nice melody and effects :)
X-who? | Reviewer: NightmareCinema | 12/13/07
I only heard this song for the first time the day before yesterday, and it's already taken its place as one of my favorites by DT. It's a masterpiece, plain and simple.
To X-Japanforever, here's a thought. If X-Japan is so great, and Art Of Life is SO MUCH of a better song, why don't you go listen to it somewhere else and let us enjoy what WE like? A 'cover' of Art Of Life? IS it Art Of Life, or do you just think it sounds like it? If you picked the second answer, you're an idiot and your opinion is as relevent as Rosie O'Donnell's political beliefs.
By the way, I love how you collectively refer to the covers on the other tracks, originally by bands/singers such as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Elton John, Kansas, Journey, Dixie Dregs, Queen and Genesis as 'crap.' Brilliant.
Here's my advice to you: take your X-Japan albums, and shove them up your ass. The rest of us will continue to enjoy Dream Theater's music, and attempt to forget the annoying rambling of a fanboy for a band none of us had even fucking heard of before you opened your mouth and revealed what a jackass you are.
Thank you, and good day.
Best ever | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/6/07
I love that through simply reading the lyrics I can hear the whole song play out in my head. I can hear Petrucci's guitar whining out each note, Portnoy hammering on the drums, all of them in the most beautiful masterpiece I've ever heard. This song certainly did change my life, and I hope it changes yours too
In my opinion, the best DT song | Reviewer: freshyq | 11/28/07
Every time i hear this song, it instantly retakes the throne for best DT song ever. If I could listen to this, Glass Prison, Blind Faith, Metro pt. 1, and Finally Free and Forsaken in a continuous loop, i'd be damn content.
