Devin Townsend - Funeral Lyrics
Jesus, here lies my brother
Tortured and blown
Stretch for the heavens and go
I watch him go
Here it comes
Jesus was a poor boy
Jesus was a poor boy
"It's just a spring clean for the may queen"
And this one's for the life
This one's for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight
This one's for the funeral in the rain
The day's gone, and the year's gone
I can't hold on to what I've had
When in what I've had
There's nothing left at all
So this one's for the life
This one's for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight
Close your eyes and try to sleep again
A world away, you turn away
I'm wide awake, and I don't need your home
Tell me why he went, it seems to be
An element to this mystery
It's so cold today, so I get away
And I'm left behind with nothing but words

Devin Townsend Funeral Comments
25:13 - Angela Merkel a fan of the Dev???
Devin venite a Argentina no sabes el quilombo que te hacemos
11:35 that girl to the left was me when I saw Devin warming up for Satriani many years ago. I closed my eyes and didn't open them for almost the entire performance. It was almost an out of body experience.
And it really warms my heart seeing that most of the people in this crowd are actually truly enjoying the music instead of seeing it through a smartphone.
As much as I love Empath, I do really miss DTP. So much chemistry with those guys.
Fantastic!
Will Smith mask?
Please I want to see mike Patton with devin
14 mins 56 secs ... just... wow
12:49 smoked shit.
"Engineer" from Prometheus learned English and shows musicians how it's done.
The studio versions are great. But they dont even come close.
Sensacional, Devin é um louco genial.
25:12 Angela Merkel ??? =)))
Anyone else see the dude yawning around 6:45. WTH!??? There’s people who would love to be there lol
Double like 👍 👍
Awesome AF
Awesome mate

amazing supergroup
when the video was over
i caught myself standing and clapping in front the computer
srysly nice music thank you very much
Ocean Machine came out the year I was born. So glad, that after 22 years I stumbled upon his music, and what is now my favorite album in Ocean Machine. This dude is flat out incredible and his music is captivating. Here's to you, Mr. Townsend. May your music continue to impact so many lives. 🤘🏼
This is therapy and a religious experience all at the same time.
Devin: more passion in his small finger than most musicians have in their entire body, the sheer unbridled sincerity, completely unmatched
Legend has it that Dave Young is still head banging, even to this day.
The best 30mins of music I've ever heard, DTP reunite ffs!
3 best songs ever in a row hands down IMO. I like to loop them on repeat them whilst weight training at the gym. Never seem to run out of energy :)
Been waiting so long for live Ocean Machine since early 2000s. Something about his older material that just cant be topped. The wait was worth it.
So much passion and epicness! Part rigid metal, part fluff. No one really compares except maybe Steven Wilson and Mikael Åkerfeldt in their prime but Devin's vocals are just more epic, unique, and probably difficult to pull off.
The greatest
25:09 - lower right corner - Angela Merkel?
Ocean Machine has been my favourite album for almost two decades. How on earth is this better than the studio version? What a musician
I'm taken aback, every time I see this video. Did he actually sing Deadhead before or after these songs?
You can really see and hear how he is getting to his limit, vocally, at the end of death. Giving it all. Fantastic.
He sang Deadhead before. Unreal that he managed it.
Wow! First time I hear this band!! Amazing!
Holy crap that's awesome! I wish I could go back to where you were a month ago, what a time of discovery!!
I hope he pays that drummer a lot.
Goosebumps 🤘🤩🙌
Funeral... favorite song... ever
His vocals from start to finish are phenomenal. Makes a grown man weep
It is like a better version of Tool. He is unbelievable
Still listening to this allmost every day.. Pure f-ing magic!
Would someone....for the sweet love of God.......PLEASE tell me where i can buy this live DVD if its available??
Ive checked online & iTunes etc but can only find the live CD version......!!!
I got into Devy a few years back. Literally cannot get enough of this absolute musical genius!
Devin Townsend Presents: Ziltoid Live At The Royal Albert Hall [Blu-Ray] https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B015S12VUM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_niIJCbY2T9WHH
This is the blue-ray. Not sure if DVD was ever available.
Amazing! Devin is just amazing!
His sound live was amazing, up there with the best of the best
Gonna see him again soon
One of the planets great live acts
Devin Townsend is the metal David Gilmour
Eargasm ! A Landmark !
Who disliked this? I mean? How? Just been bawling my eyes out at the end of "death". Transcendental.
To me, this is like the best live performance of 3 songs ever. It almost makes me sad to know he's never going to sound this awesome again... Nothing out there comes close to this... Pure masterpiece of a performance
I can't stop listening/watching this video! Amazing stuff. First time I hear Devin.
Just putting this out there, if Steven Wilson ever collabs with Devin my nuts will rupture!
Anyone else see the SockKnot puppets in the crowd?
Dat. Fucking. Genius.
what is that first guitar he's playing? the one that kinda looks like a firebird?
Couldn't be better. I love Townsend's music!
Adoro townsend completo, showwwww, TOP. UP. Brasil.....
Tell me this guy doesn't feel his music. At 27:21 he clearly has goose bumps!
I did not know any of these songs...but when they were done playing Death Of Music I was just blown away..
I've loved Devin for some time now but this is just next level....
This is otherworldly!! Words can not describe. Nothing else matters when sucked into the vacuum of that which is pure heart, that which is pure force of will. THAT! WHICH! IS! DEVIN TOWNSEND!!!! THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING!! God is present at this very moment!
Voldemort !!
Sound Soul Magic!
This is the best video on the internet, pure eargasm! Watched it at least 20 times in the last two weeks!!!
I only wish that I could pray to god
Amanda Laggan unfortunately there is none to pray
Dont die on me ...what a feeling ..I am dev addict .
Putain! Jamais aucune musique ne m'a touché comme ça ! J'en ai encore les larmes aux yeux. Comment un son peut-il à la fois être aussi aérien et vous écraser et vous laisser noyé dans l'émotion ?
This wall of sound he creates is just magical.
Heladería Los Pelados!
When you're this fuckin good live, why even bother making studio recordings?????!
this guys got the best quality version of each of the songs on this video. 2.2k likes and only 120 subs, that doesn't sound right. subscribe!
The big joke is, I have no other content 😂😂😂😂
One day I'll add some stuff and I'll have a captive audience 😅😅😅😅
I've spent a significant portion of today watching and listening to Devon Townsend Project live shows on YouTube. I'm now a big fan!
Serious Question. Does this fall under Christian Rock?
Jordan Lynch thanks. Such talent
The performance of those three songs is simply staggering.
He writes some interesting stuff.
But he clearly thinks the WORLD of himself.
He knows he's good but I don't think he's big headed and seems to have a genuine interest in his fans. There's a few clips of an acoustic session he did in a record store in Newton Abbott in Devon UK where he comes across as very down to earth.
The test of a true artist is how they do live and their are few to be this good
Goosebump (litterally) at 28:35
How the shit this talented man is a metal based . This is devy planet , pink floyd of metal . 💚☘️
The best 28:35 minutes of live music.
His performance in the death of music is genuinely epic ... mater piece ..👏🏼
The use of a Maj7th Chord at 11:10 is just brilliant. Such an original way to use that tonality. Love it
I've been waiting over 20 years to see this performance, and I was not disappointed. Not one iota.
Thank you for the upload! I need to buy this and hear it in surround!
Fucking hell I am annoyed it’s taken me so long to get this guy.
Hoe i love this band, best singer ever. cant stop listening
I asked my bf whom I love dearly if it was wrong of me to think Devin is sexy (because of his voice, his skills on guitar and his sense of humor wich I love in ppl in general, and the fact hi is good at acting confident - hmm just like my bf actually lol), and he said no because he really loves him too 🤘 Devin is so talented it's really not fair to other ppl in the industry wich have to work hard, but it all comes naturally to Devin. And the rest of the band is brilliant too. Simply epic!!
Intense and awesome!
There aren't a whole lot of artists who can manage the same quality of sound during a live performance, DTP and a few others go beyond that and sound even better live
His voice should be more exposed, more in front of the band. That's at all his concerts and records. Poor mastering... shame...
no, it's supposed to be like that.
a spiritual exorcism every time i pull this up and listen thru 5.1, stereo or headphones. thank you for posting.
Geniuses these days don’t get any better than that! This is the Devy Metal baby!) Peace out!!!
Oh My God!!!
Is that Angela Merkel on 25:10 in the right corner?
Who ever did the sound 👌 good job
isn't Devin Canadian??
excellent performance in UK
Masterpiece!!!!!!!!🌿🌿🌿
death of music = jaw on floor
Judging by his arms, this dude is giving himself the chills as much as he's giving me.
such a legend. I'm chilling to this with my soul in awed attendance.
Why the fuck have I only just now seen this...lead here by some rig run down vids. Man the shit the gp consume almost make it impossible to find something this good...QUIT GIVING YOUR CHILDREN TECH! THEY HAVE ZERO TASTE AND INFLUENCE WAY TOO MUCH OF WHAT IS PRODUCED! just sayin, someone is listening to mumble rap
I know that Deadhead isn't a part of these songs, but I kinda Imagine it being the "fourth" song
The face of transcendence : 12:50
holy shit....this is amazing
exeptionnal
I can't believe I actually was there...so surreal. I'd travelled from abroad to accompany my at the time-boyfriend, and my health was a wreck, could hardly walk up a stair, and feeling generally awful, like I had to shield myself from all noise, light etc. Then, it all lifted like magic as I walked into the Hall and I felt the vibe, and the music started. I don't have enough words to describe his music. But the feeling from it is pure bliss and awesomeness!
