Yes. One of the rare happy songs by Porcu...
Both the lyrics & the melody - which is a bit banal, thus not very Porcupine like. But it's cool, cuz it ,points out on a wide range of experimentations and a variety of musical approaches. Of course, that it's still brilliant none the less. I love the strings & bass. Happy songs are good for the ear :) Though to me it sounds more of the Stupid Dream material rather than that of Lightbulb Sun.
Actually, this is one of those PT songs where I don't get this "old" European post-holocaust like vibe from which I ususally do and that I personally seem to feel sometimes when listening to this awsome band's more melancholy pieces (especially when it comes to the cover arts, not just the music itself). This is why I actually believe Steven Wilson is so intrigued by Poland (where they perform a lot and recorded Warszawa) as well as Israel (where he lived, dated an Israeli girl & colloborated with Aviv Geffen on Blackfield along other local musician here in the holy land).
The lyrics might be a bit banal if you don't think of this song as a part of a whole (the whole being lightbulb sun).. but the melody banal? did you pay attention to the violins in the back? they're just.. oh so powerful.

Honestly, does Porcupine Tree even need a defined style? That's their whole point. They can do whatever they feel is beautiful.
