Absolutely, man! Away never, ever seems to get the credit it deserves. Nothing like sparking a bowl up to this song, been doing so for over a decade.

@dmoneygc 208 Needing drugs to enjoy music is for losers.
Ivan Petrow
HELP! Who can understand the background words in INTRO (from 0-20 to 0-30), in the middle part (from 3-20 to 3-40), and female OUTRO (from 7-00, maybe it's a part/sample/quote of some other song?). It's a great song and I wanna know everything about it! INTRO: I can hear some words like: "…scientist, scientist". The voice is very similar to the spoken intro of Fear Factory's "Final exit". MIDDLE PART: Sounds like (I'm sure, I'm wrong, but maybe it's like): (Uh… Uh-ouh, leave me out, uh… So come in on, come in)
TheAldini10
Outro is Someone To Watch Over Me by Ella Fitzgerald

Dylan Francesconi
reminds me of steve vai's weeping china doll
singer3188
yeah you can definitely tell he took some inspiration from vai in his guitar playing
Chris Petersen
I believe weeping china doll was made after this song, so if anything steve vai was inspired by devin
Dylan Francesconi
Yeah, I just heard the former first is all. I love both artists :)
Ivan Petrow
HELP! Who knows outro's lyrics from 0-23 to 0-30? It says everywhere that it's like (I'm an adiot etc.), but I don't hear it... Maybe be it's something different, 'cause the booklet sometimes contain Devin's thoughts, but not really what he sung.
dmoneygc 208
It's 'I couldn't help myself...The universe's English, and science, and science....'
Etienne
I absolutely love this song. And I can play it in standard tuning. Does anyone know if this could be called ''Modal playing''? I'm still new to guitar and I'm trying to understand it more. If so, what mode is it? (I'm guessing Aolien?) What key is it? (I'm guessing C major?)
Dylan Francesconi
Aolian is a way to put it, it does have minor tonality (aolian is the natural minor scale) and it's also very pentatonic sounding just based off my ear training. There are definitely moments it has a splash of major tonality thrown in which is typically a dorian thing when in a minor key unless there was a key change into a major key which would mean it's Ionian
Minton Branham
Etienne yes this definitely modal playing. All western music is essentially modal playing, just to varying degrees.

Devin needs to put an instrumental like this on the new album. It's one of his most unique and incredible pieces and that guitar tone is just sensational
Robbie h
The fact that im 30 been into metal, alternative and anything thats written with passion soul all my life, only just started breathing in this music. What have i missed out on!

Skinshrink

Yung Kirk
This falls in the genre of Post-Rock.
WeWantYouToStay
I'd sort of agree, but I've never heard any post-rock similar to this, particularly the guitar tone. It's the most mesmerising, deep, lush guitar tone I have ever heard and it's closer to metal than rock but again no post-metal is like this either. If you know any post-rock that is anything like this or that takes you, for lack of a better word, away, in a similar way to this, then I would very much like to know :)

eonblue32
The song is "Someone to Watch Over Me" by Ella Fitzgerald.
Spikey Wikey
@eonblue32 Thank you sir, indeed. Its her. But i guess, Devin reverbed her voice somehow on this track. It sounds more like contralto voice range.
thefumigator
@Spikey Wikey He lowered the pitch (which can be done easily, and added reverb for the "echo" effect of being far away
Lynx Lefay
My god, thank you! That was bugging me big time. I love how Devin appreciates all kinds of music. Heard he's even an Enya fan!

Steve Vai and Devin use to tour together back in the 90s
I can see Vai still listening to Townsend's stuff and getting influenced
randyman1331
Devin was in Vai in 19931 Sex and Religion cd
Andy Brown
Sounds like Weeping China Doll by Steve Vai haha
Sadie Smith
I believe Weeping China Doll sounds like this song? This came out yeeears before
Daniel Johnstone
Sadie Smith that's irrelevant to the point he was making. He didn't say he copied Steve vai
randyman1331
Daniel Johnstone I actually think it's Vai, since Devin was in Vai in 93.
dmoneygc 208
No, it is in fact Dev peforming this. I also find it funny how every Vai fanboy comes to this song leaving comments that strongly suggest that Dev ripped his song off, when it was out years and years before Vai's.
Paul Ozz
As far as I know this is the beginning of the end of your journey to find good music. He did write and record demos with ez drummer but this is a full studio production. Take 10 minutes of your time to research that this album is quite old actually.
michael antle
this song is truly amazing
gojirametallica
I hate just having the song without the CD it came from, i bought like 12 of his songs on iTunes and they're all incomplete, but if i bought it on CD i wouldn't have this problem

Love this song. Makes me imagine being in a warm wood mill or workshop with pine trees outside and dusky rays of sun shining in through grubby windows highlighting all the dust. Theres all this rusty broken-up radio equipment around the place. Its comfy. And theres this beautiful chick hanging out there with you too. Anyone else get anything similar when they hear this?
dmoneygc 208
This song evokes such a drastically vivid mental image of tranquility and oneness with every atom of the universe that surrounds, that it doesn't even need the two scant lines of lyric that accompany the song. (although I still like the little couplet), on another note, I wish Jim Morrison had lived long enough to do some spoken word poetry over a performance of this song. Other than that small curiosity, this song is perfect to me in every way as it stands.

hands down i think tis is one of the best song i ever heard
Marius
it's on youtube. just search for it

There you go! I recomend to buy the album on Devins ebay website if you want it.
Michael Combs
The intro is perfect just the way he made it.
adrianvdb
oh okay. yeah i know. They did the sex and religion album together.
salmacis81
Of course he was influenced by Steve Vai more than Pink Floyd. We know each other Devin was his singer in early 90's. Anyway, I was Talking particulary about this song.
adrianvdb
i think its more influeced by Steve vai. But if you can hear some PF im sure there is ;)
salmacis81
If you close your eyes and begin to listening deeply, I can bet Devin has a Pink Floyd influence in this song. The atmospheres that he creates remember me things from that band.
Brudoch
I just came.
countable
Its because Devin discontinued all his albums so any that are produced new are done so under (really expensive) licence. My fiancee got me Terria for my 18th and she said she looked high and low for it but ended up asking a mate of hers to help her out.
startfirst
oh my god this song is so fucking niceeee.gives you that gooood feeling inside, just like that feeling you get when you have the first cup of freshly ground coffee in the morning :) Devin Townsend is a fuckin god. love this so much.
OcelotDAD
absolutely agree.
feedthemonkey83
I love this riff ... its easy to play, but its hard to let it sound with that feeling ^^

The intro is perfect just the way he made it.

Of course he was influenced by Steve Vai more than Pink Floyd. We know each other Devin was his singer in early 90's. Anyway, I was Talking particulary about this song.
adrianvdb
i think its more influeced by Steve vai. But if you can hear some PF im sure there is ;)

If you close your eyes and begin to listening deeply, I can bet Devin has a Pink Floyd influence in this song. The atmospheres that he creates remember me things from that band.
Brudoch
I just came.

Its because Devin discontinued all his albums so any that are produced new are done so under (really expensive) licence. My fiancee got me Terria for my 18th and she said she looked high and low for it but ended up asking a mate of hers to help her out.

Devin Townsend is a fuckin god.

I think hevydevy is the only place you can actually get these albums new. You could probably buy them second hand from amazon or something but that cant compare to holding a fresh copy in your hands :)

go to the hevydevy website.
