"The best dream ballad I have ever heard(after space-dye vest,of course).This CD contains the great "through her eyes" song,I think James LaBrie had sung very very well on this song that he has never done.Home-live is great(of course) and ,after listening this song,to me,dream theater is the best live group in the world.There is no reason to not get this CD..Don't forget that,The Dream Singles always include much more than you have dreamed!Highly recommended..."

"As a big DT fan, I've got to steer you toward better recordings if you are interested in the content of this CD. This CD was released prior to the "Live Scenes from New York" CD and DVD, and I was hungry to hear the live versions contained on this disc. Unfortunately, James LaBrie's strained and tired voice nearly destroys an otherwise desireable recording. I find myself cringing as he drifts out of tune and simply misses the notes during the peak of 'Home'. I don't understand why the band chose to publish this recording because it is certainly not representative of their collective talents. Go buy the full live set on "Live Scenes.." instead - you'll be glad that you did."
Important addition to your collection

"Only a band as prolific as Dream Theater can release a CD "single" with over forty minutes of material, all of it good, on the disc. This disc is a good representation of the band - it has one of their slower, softer songs on it, along with impressive live versions of their more typically progressive songs. The power of the band resides in their ability to diversify every song, whether lyrically or musically. A msut have for die-hards, and highly recommended for casual fans as well."
