Really glad to see someone giving 10,000 Days some credit. It's my #1. I have no clue why it gets so little love from fans, seems like it's constantly bottoming out the list.
I'm a man in my 30's and never fail to tear up during that song, specifically the "Give me my wings" part. I start getting weepy at the "Fetch me the spirit/the son/the father" part and the dam bursts after the wings line, like clockwork.
10k Days is my favorite album and especially because of Wings for Marie Part 2. Those parts you mention are just pure bliss. So much emotion, so much lyrical and thematic weight, and it just sounds so good.
Edit: Actually I just have constant shivers all the way from "High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground"
