OMG ... what a great interview with the queen Simone.thanks,Pedro!!
Cheers
Very exciting to see Simone here!
She is such a tallented singer.
Thank you for doing this interview, Pedro!
My pleasure, will continue to bring musicians in for a chat every time I am given an opportunity
Simone is my favorite singer and Epica is my favorite symphonic metal band, also omega alive was the best concert i have ever seen
I think Retrospect was even better but anyways it's a matter of taste
@@adolfoalbornoz3730 Omega Alive and Retrospect are both masterpieces 🔥🤘🏻
Check out dArtagnan Feuer & flamme and Feuerschwanz Die letzte schlacht and 11:O:A they are great to, they sing in German so it´s a chance to learn a new language.
Great interview!! I was so impressed with Omega Alive (always clear to me it was never going to be a live performance...) - a fantastic show and massive production - spectacular and so much to see in every song - an absolute masterpiece! Have ordered the Earbook, vinyl and a t-shirt! I love the messages that Epica convey - so powerful, have been listening more and more since March 2020 and the pandemic & these guys really give me hope! Really keen to support Epica - might go and have another look at their shop! Thanks for doing this Pedro & Simone!
Simone is so lovely! Love her! Thanks for such a great interview!
Great interview. I'm an American, and I'm convinced European metal has set todays standard for musical quality and talent! The Omega CD, YT videos released for Omega Alive, and Sabaton's Christmas Truce, are the best music of the last year or so! There are so many good bands, and the ranks of female vocalist fronting them is deep with talent, like Floor, Simone, Elize Ryd, Alissa Whit -Gluz, and so on! Can't wait to download the Omega Alive CD!
Excellent interview, both of you. I agree with what she said about Code of Life being left out.
Great interview❣️Love queen Simone🤘🏻love the new album, 😍looking forward to the live album
Great interview! Yes Epica set the bar
high with OmegaAlive just as they did with their Retrospect show..OmegaAlive is a feast for eyes and ears! 👍
😱 Simone interview, that was great, Epica is my favourite band, she is talented and beautiful 😍 I'm listening them since 2008
Superb interview!!
thank you
That was the best show I have ever seen. December 3rd can't be here fast enough.
Yay! Hi Simone. Thank you Pedro for this
I love this woman, great interview, thanks so much
Cheers
Wow, you interviewed Queen Simone ❤
I didn't expect it 🙂 Thanks!
What a great interview. I have seen a couple of interviews and a live chat on the topic of Omega Alive, but none of them was closely as informative as this one in prividing some background information on the "making of". I guess your contagious enthusiasm might have helped getting Simone so talketive about it.
On an unrelated note, I'm currently a bit sad because the Epica concert in january for which I had tickets has been rescheduled to 2023. On the positive side, it is now on my birthday (speaking of a nice present). Now I just have to hint someone to give me Omega Alive as Xmas present.
Omg!!! I loved the interview, love this channel!! Simone is the sweetest 🤍
Thank you
Great interview, haven´t seen the show yet but ordered the blueray about a month ago. Now I am like a kid before christmas and counting the days.
Hail to the Queen!
My best band ever, and I started in the early 80s
Another excellent interview Pedro well done! Simone Simons and Epica are amazing can't wait for the OMEGA ALIVE Blu-ray release!!
I'm so glad you appreciate Epica..they're the best and so are you! I'm also SO glad to hear Simone say they will be working Code of Life into their up coming set lists. Its such a great song!
Wow!! Your channel has grown so much, I'm proud of you!!!
Thank you so much!!
Awesome interview with one of my favorite vocalists. She is as beautiful as her voice. 😃 and they always go the extra mile for their shows 😊 it's on my Christmas list too 😆
Keeping my fingers crossed
Just Pre-ordered mine!!!! You are AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL SIMONE!!!!!!!! THNX PEDRO!
My pleasure
Pre-ordered mine too. 🤘😎
Great interview! Getting a real inside look at the production of these massive shows is always a treat, entertaining and informative, and, as someone who's been involved with the music biz for years, really appreciate. Thank you!
You are most welcome
Very excited to see this! The show was phenomenal, looking forward to hear what the lovely Simone has to share here
Thank you. Now i know she really wants to play Code of Life and is bummed it didn' t end on the setlist. Can't wait for it to be played sometime....
Terrible, incredible and painful that this report has only 1263 views. Man, it's Simone Simons live with the reactor! Surprising and wonderful !!
Wow, you guys got Simone on the show? Unreal!
Great interview!
Thank you
Holy shit, epic! if you see this Simone, please contact Elisabeth at The Charismatic Voice for a tea time interview as well, your fan base is expanding thanks to TH-cam, should keep the momentum going;)
I love Simone's Patreon community 😍
Oh my! I was very excited to see you were able to talk with Simone! This interview was very good. All the questions were on point and of course our queen Smoon was as lovely as ever.
It's so interesting to hear about how Omega Alive came to life. As always, Simone's humour is very fun hehehe.
And yes, as Simone said, the stream was very affordable, and I honestly still think it was a steal with the production value and amazing moment they gave to us.
Thanks
Thank you for this nice interview and interesting facts about the amazing stream 🖤🤘
Thank you
Wow! Thank you for giving us more info about the upcoming Epica release!
My pleasure
You guys are so amazing A&P! Thank you for having Smoon for an interview! Love Epica to rhe moon and back!!! 😍🤘🏻
Simone Simons, Dutch Ginger Metal Queen forever.
Great interview Pedro.
Thank you
Awesome but no 4K Bluray available. Stream was in 4K.
Pedro and the Goddess ! Excellent, excellent interview Pedro. I've already pre-ordered the bluray.
Omg epica. you are interviewing Epica
I have had Mark and Rob on the channel before. Just saying...
@@APREACTS Whoa that's insane I use epica music to exercise and feel pump up.
If you check some of the interviews on this channel you will discover some big names. Maybe some interesting chats you will enjoy.
@@APREACTS Oh ok. Feel weird because I thought you guys were only known for good reviews.
We do lots of interviews...Nightwish, Sabaton, Cradle of Filth, lots and lots. Enjoy.
Great interview. I really enjoy it. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh wow, cool to see Simone here! 🤘
I don't know her band but she is a gorgeous redhead 😍
Well, she's not only gorgeous but also one of the most beautiful female voices in metal. You should definitely check them out :)
EPICA - Storm the Sorrow (official video)
EPICA - Unleashed (official music video)
EPICA - Feint (acoustic), make sure you find a HD video (or even 4K)
@@cancelled_user Sorry I'm more into death metal.
@@Ghost-vi8qm No problem mate!
Btw, Epica incorporate death and black metal elements into their music too ;-)
th-cam.com/video/_kUMYIMYzLI/w-d-xo.html
Also their drummer was previously in a death metal band (God Dethroned).
Excellent! please interview Giacomo Voli the latest singer of Rhapsody of Fire and Timo Kotipelto (Stratovarius) I'd be really thankful if you do that. Greetings from Venezuela
Very nice man. You are getting great guests. Hopefully see you at Swallow the Sun in Toronto next week.
I will be there!!
What a lovely human being
LMAO
I have seen your videos and I've never subscribed :(( omg, I'm so sorry.
You had me with this interview with our queen Simone and the other with the great Chris Harms :00
Thanks for hitting the sub button
@@APREACTS My pleasure ✨ keep on the great work
We need the song: CODE OF LIFE, PLEASE. 🥺🥰😍❤️🤘🤟🎼🎶🎵✨
Code of Life is absolutely brilliant on any level you care to name. Epica asks the big questions about human nature and existence and manages to provide magnificent and uplifting presentations. As far as I have heard, only Tuomas Holopainen and Nightwish are in the same league. Not to mention the fact that we have two Dutch goddesses fronting them.
The beauty and the beast. Nah, I'm kidding, Simone's good looking too.
Nice interview P!
😁😁
EPICA IS BEAUTIFUL METAL
How you keep focused with that beauty in front of you?
it whas the best Live stream i have seen ....better than Nightwish with the fucking green screan ( the sound was good but there a no highpoints)
!!!!!! =:D
If I pay to see a live show, I expect to see a live show.
In saying that, epica is one band I will forgive for anything.
...but 'Omega Alive Stream' was never advertised as a 'Live Event'. To expect a 'Live Show' in this case, like Simone stated would be 'funny'... ☺
@@K.Monster and as I also said, I would forgive epica for anything. I wouldn't care if they made puppets of themselves and had those performing as long as I get to hear Simone's beautiful voice 😀
@@fybromon1409 Actually, that's not a bad idea. lol
...does she say they were inspired by vacuums? 'Cause that album suuuuuuuuuuucks...
You’re CLUELESS. Lmao. You wouldn’t know good music if it hit you in the face.
She is AMAZING SATANIC METAL queen !!!
symphonic metal lol
@@CatswithGuns101 SATANIC !!!!
@@jonaskazlauskas9084 There is no Satanism in Symphonic Metal.
@@Zoza15 C'mon There's LOT's of SATANIC SYPMPHONIC METAL Bands !!! Just Look at THERION !!!
@@jonaskazlauskas9084 By accusing Epica as Satanic is you being a fool what a Actual Satanic band is..
Stop talking nonsense if you have zero idea what you're talking.
Great interview!!
Thank you.
