Talk:Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence

message: Who was the idiot/ignorant who wrote in the article "Each portion (track) is intended to represent a different mental illness, with the exception of Overture and Losing Time"? Overture is the introduction or presentataion to ALL the mental illnesses that follow. Losing Time is obviously a mental illness (amnesia) just as the other ones. Or maybe the person who said it is not is so amnesic that forgot amnesia is a mental illness.
I'll erase that senseless entry from the article.

message: is disc 2 one track consisting of a song with 8 movements. or 8 tracks each of which are a movement to the one song —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.64.223.203 (talk • contribs) 
:The latter. It was orignially (I believe) meant to be one song and one track, but Mike Portnoy said somewhere that they decided to split the song into 8 tracks just so people wouldn't have to fast forward and rewind endlessly to find their favorite part of the song. -- Loudsox 18:55, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Dream Theater - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence.jpg

message: Regarding this bit in the introduction; "The number of songs on the record is another "nugget" by Mike Portnoy. The album officially has the smallest number of songs on any Dream Theater album, but if the parts of "The Glass Prison" and "SDOIT" are counted as separate songs, it has 15 songs, the largest number on a Dream Theater album."
An argument can be made for the title track counting as different songs, since it's split into 8 tracks on the album, but The Glass Prison is clearly one song. Yes, there are labeled sections, but musically, it's very clearly one song, and I don't know anyone who considers it more than one, while many people consider "Six Degrees" to be 8 songs. 142.68.89.100 (talk) 04:32, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The Glass Prison is one song

message: I've removed two unsources influences on the album, i.e. Radiohead's The Bends and Megadeth's Rust in Peace. For the first, Mike Portnoy says they were inspired by the subsequent Radiohead's album, i.e. OK Computer. I'd take MP's word on this, unless another source contradicting him is shown.
For the second influence, one song is actually mentioned in another entry of the FAQ (link added), but I narrowed the reference to mention only that song; now, it's obviously possible that DT listened to the whole album and not only to that song, but claiming the whole album was an influence is another thing. I checked other influences and they're all backed by that source. --Blaisorblade (talk) 16:52, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Influences 

message: This change removed this sentence, which sounds really reasonable to me (I thought the same before reading, even if I didn't restrict the similarity down to a specific song):
:Some parts of this song sound extremely similar to the central melody of the song "Forty-Six & 2" by the band Tool, specifically the part where the refrain of "life to save life" is sung by LaBrie.
See  for a fan saying this. Beyond that, the album Ænima album, containing that song, is explicitly acknowledged as an inspiration. Is it possible to find some way to add this to the article? --Blaisorblade (talk) 19:03, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Any reliable sources for this? Much like Scenes from a Memory, it seems criminal to leave out what should be the pre-eminent genre, which can be deduced by anyone with a brain. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:10, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
