The Spirit Carries On on the LSFNY DVD = most emotional thing I've ever heard in music. Period. It sends chills down my spine.

I didn't really like it that much on the DVD. I thought Petrucci went a bit too apeshit on the soloing and kind of wrecked the mood.

Indeed.

"Vocari Dei" is nice, but "Morning on Earth" fucking destroyed me when I first listened to it reading the lyrics (I'm a non-native English speaker, kinda hard to figure out lyrics without really paying attention). Lilium Cruentus is pretty sad too...

A couple PoS songs have made me well up. Morning On Earth is one, Vocari Dei is another (which is funny because i thought it was AWFUL the first few times i heard it), but probably the strongest one was Dedication. The lyrics are great, and having lost a grandfather i could relate to it quite a bit. Then there's the song The Perfect Element, which has obliterated me many-a-time. To me it represents a suicide. A man at the end of his rope who has just slit his wrists and lies bleeding with thoughts of his life flashing before his eyes, the good and the bad.
