A gentle, rhythmic ballad with some understated guitar work, the piece is suggestive of the influence our soul mate has on the way we see the world. “You’ve conspired, inspired me to / Find a place like this.”—Rob Freedman, Rush Vault
“The composition is ingenious, even if the song has more of a pop-rock feel to it. The guitar part that bookends the song is intriguing and should have been brought out a little more in the mix.”—Epignosis on Prog Archives
“‘Window to the World’ is very much in the same vein as the second track and ‘Working at Perfekt,’ which can easily lull the audience into a comatose state if they’re not paying attention to what they’re doing.”—King By-Tor on Prog Archives
“‘Window to the World,’ along with ‘Runaway Train’ and ‘Still,’ plod along melancholically at an unengaging pace, complimented by mutually unengaging melodies.”—Caleb MacAlpin on Sputnik Music
