It's simply brilliant the way that Porcupine Tree can take a rock based approach theme - and use in it such a clear & clean pop stracture - while still making it sound so good. A lot of people with different musical tastes can relate to the sound and vibe of this cool eerie song. Stupid Dream is a bit mainstream in compare to the other pieces of PT, but it rocks so good. It should have gotten world wide spread in all the radio stations along Lightbulb Sun & the amazing In Absentia, which seems to be more "convienet" to the average listener/ear, though obivously it is very complexed. It would have brought pop music to a whole other different notion by radio listeners. Of course that Steven Wilson probably wouldn't want that since that's his niche.
