| Amazing song and skalra63 has the best points I've seen. This song was amazing at Rock in Rio. I just love how the crowd loves Bruce and Maiden...about halfway through the song Bruce is sining and he finishes a "The dream is true" and then he just says "tell me about it Rio", and everyone just screams out a "the dream is true". It's amazing. | |

| Really good song, the meaning is confusing. It seems that you can take a lot from it... | |

| How come no one else has added a message? This is my second favourite Maiden song, and it is awesome live. It has the guitaring of Aces High, the lyrics of Fear of the Dark and the crowd reaction of... Fear of the Dark... again. But anyway, it's an awesome song. | |

| to me it sounds like one of Descartes, Dancy and Putnam (they build on the previous ideas) philosophical ideas. put simply, the same idea as in The matrix, which is a story based on the idea that were are in a "fake" "dream" world. " since all we ever experience is our own inner mental states, we might , for all we could tell, be living in an illusion created by a malicious demon" - Ren Descartes "You do not know that you are not a brain, suspended in a vat full of liquid in a laboratory, and wired to a computer which is feeding you your current experiences under the control of some ingenious technician scientist (benevolent or malevolent according to taste). For if you were such a brain, then, provided that the scientist is successful, nothing in your experience could possibly reveal that you were; for your experience is ex hypothesi identical with that of something which is not a brain in a vat. Since you have only your own experience to appeal to, and that experience is the same in either situation, nothing can reveal to you which situation is the actual one." - Introduction to Contemporary Epistemology, 10 | |
