[edit] "Part 1" a joke?
I remember Mike Portnoy mentioning something about "the original Metropolis Pt. 2" which seems to imply that they had planned to make it, or was this just the 24 minute version mentioned on the page? A citation would be good. Offski 10:04, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Connection to Part 2?
Obviously, Part 2 tells a story, as do most Dream Theater songs; but does Part 1 actually tell a story similar to Part 2? To me, I can't make heads or tails about this song.

- (Note, this is all my view on it) Yes, it connects. "The night shed a tear/To tell her of fear/And of sorrow and pain/She'll never outgrow" shows his dreams, "As a man I've found it's all caught up with me/I'm asleep yet I'm so afraid" shows the dreams as well. The "first dance", is the killing Edward committed. deceit, the second dance, shows his lying to make it look like a double suicide. the third dance is the dance of eternity, the same as in part 2: the two having sex. "The both of you will be confined/to this mind" is the re-incarnation. It's all there, it was just expanded on majorly in part 2. -Violask81976 21:29, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Bass Solo Trivia
Deleted part about the fact it included Myung's bass solo, seeing as it was fairly irrelevant. A lot of songs do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.23.145.65 (talk) 21:59, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
