My pre-order package arrived yesterday!! YAY!!
Great pacakge, as expected. I will be writing a formal review within a few days.
The purpose of this thread is to discuss the powerful effect that TWILIGHT INNOCENCE had on me at first listen.
The song begins with a beautiful accoustic intro. Then Paul comes in with a haunting, yet powerful, David Gilmore-esque monotone vocal delivery of, "I wonder what she dreams about?"
Last week, my sister-in-law (my wife's sister) VERY prematurely delivered a set of twins. One boy and one girl. She was only 21 weeks along!! Needless to say, they were both immediately put on life support. Within days, the girl began bleeding in the brain. At first, it was only on one side. 2 days ago, they performed another cat scan, and the bleeding now was on BOTH sides of the brain. The doctors had already informed the couple that the girls quality of living, if she did survive, would be EXTREMELY poor (IE - she would basically be a vegetable). The second cat scan confirmed that my sister-in-law and her husband would have to make the hardest decision in their life, to take her off of life support. Yesterday, she was taken off life support, and passed away in the arms of her mother...........
Therefore, when Paul sings, "I wonder what she dreams about? Perhaps my arms that hold her tight.........", it brought me to tears, as the vision of my sister-in-law holding her dying daughter in her arms.......
Thanks for writing another emotionally powerful song.
Sorry for the depressing thread, but I felt the need to let you know the effect this song had on me......
As I said, I will write a formal review of the rest of the album later.
Thanks to all who took the time to read this.
