Burdens a great song from watershed. I don't usually like Opeth's videos though just because they always cut the songs. A video for Heir Apparent would have been better though considering they've shot a video for one of the slower songs off of the album already

Well, the video wasn't interesting. But I really understood the songs's strength after seeing it.

I like the new album a bit more now.
And the keyboard solo... Damn, that guy really knows how to play fast!

Didn't like it. It was posted in the shoutbox a few days ago, and at least in that version, into and end were cut out. That takes much of the atmosphere away.

I know, the organ sounds so clean and spot on. Very rare to find a player like that these days.

I like the video, it's very nice. And Burden is one of my favourite songs from Watershed.

Normal video, but wondeful song, their songs are from anothr world.
videos make songs popular usualy, but this time, NOP, Burden is popular becuse of the song, not the video.

I love this song. I love how smooth the guitar riff is and the keyboard solo. It's classic Opeth.
