I'd piss myself laughing if it turned out Per wrote all the lyrics for "Reveries".

i think it's funny that it is a fansite, but still they don't know MIKAEL's name is MIKAEL, not MIKEAL........ yeah......

now i can anderstand what the "TGC" clip is about
the women is rosmery(and im not sure that's hes mother cuz she's young)
the old man is the story-teller
and the man on the mask is the LORD SATAN 666

Has it not been previously stated that there is NO concept for Ghost Reveries?

Yeah well...isnt it a falied concept album? Im sure there is a small one hidden in there somewhere due to all the connections within most of the songs.

Hasn't Mikael said that Isolation Years actually has nothing to do with the rest of the album?

basically, all songs except for isolation years follow a general concept (i'm sure someone will refute that). Mikael wrote the album as a concept, but then wrote Isolation years, which had nothing to do with...anything...but loved it so much he scrapped the concept idea so he could put it on the album.


or something to that effect.


I'm glad he put isolation years on the album...the song is beautiful...

no, he hasn't.

There's a recurring theme of "the mire"... It shows up in multiple songs (the lyric, anyway).

 

[worldwide_suicide]

no, there isn't.

That link is stupid beyond belief. Akerfeldt has already said that Isolation Years has nothing to do with the concept. He has said that at least one other song doesn't really have anything to do with it. And hes talked about TGC having to do with demonic possession.

THESE THREADS ARE A WASTE OF TIME!
