Why this band didn't shoot into the stratosphere of fame and fortune after this incredible tour supporting one of the greatest metal albums ever made is completely beyond me. Kamelot (at this time) was easily on par with the top metal bands of their time. And add to that arguably THE greatest voice in metal-music.
I totally agree with you!!! Although Kamelot gets more fame right now, 2005/2006 were the years they deserve the most. Kamelot is a much more talented/creative band than most (New) metal bands nowadays. Especially with Roy. However, Tommy is doing a amazing job to ;) But unfortunately .... not everyone gets that :( in my opinion; With their music they deserve stages like Wacken, Rock am Ring, Fortarock, Pinkpop etc.
Metal bands can't really get fame and fortune in the current music environment. It's mostly reserved for pop music and top 100 stuff which makes it to award shows or stuff that pioneers genres. Like how everyone knows Metallica and Black Sabbath but doesn't necessarily listen to them or like them. I love Kamelot, but they didn't really reinvent metal, they just play it really, REALLY well.
Jeffrey Stevens I’m not even asking for that level of recognition (although Khan as a vocalist completely deserves it) they could be at least as popular as A7X or Disturbed and I’d be happy.
I feel ya. They do completely deserve it, more so in my opinion because of their level of technique. Metal is really hard to do play, much harder to nail down like these guys do. Just keep spreading the vibes. I know I am; I play Kamelot on my university radio show.
Thats awesome. I found them in 2010 when my dad passed and Khan left. Their music helped me alot. But as sad it was Roy left i did give Tommy a chance. For the shoes he had to fill I'm happy. Plus Roy's back in Conception and Tommy has music in Seventh Wonder and Ayreon..also Casey is drumming for Queensryche now.
Mmm maybe... But he is definitely on par with vocalists like Dickinson, Dio, Halford and Kiske!!! + he reunited with his old band Conception. They released a new ep last week. Freaking awesome!!!
Simplemente mágico, extraordinario ver/escuchar una banda y un vocalista interpretar una canción así. De lo mejor que he visto en mi vida. Mis felicitaciones a KAMELOT y Roy que nos han dejado esta belleza musical en nuestros corazones y oídos.
Once my life was plain and clear I recall Once my ignorance was bliss Nighfall came Like a serpent's kiss To my troubled mind Why oh why my God Have you abandoned me In my sobriety Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child So take me cross the river wide Binding promises were made On my soul Grand delusions lead astray Ice-cold wings swept my heart away Bring me back to you Why oh why my God Have you abandoned me In my sobriety Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child So take me cross the river wide I remember a song Like in a dream Where September was long And winter unreal Why oh why my God Have you abandoned me In my sobriety Behind the old facade I'm your bewildered child So take me cross the river wide
Abandoned by Kamelot is a song/art masterpiece that you don't even need to know the lyrics, to know it is a masterpiece. Roy's voice itself is a perfect instrument. The harmonic progression is also very striking, nothing too controversial or complicated, but the effect is unbelievable.
River wideeeeeeee" Danm, this part is so angelical. What a fucking angel voice! Never get tired of this, even passing years since I heard this as my first Kamelot song! I was get in the first time!
I’m once again watching this video in 2024. It is amazing just how good this band sounded, and still maintains that same level of quality, even with a new singer, bass player, and drummer. Check out the cigarette lighters! Unthinkable in today’s safety conscious environment. And, oh, by the way, no one can truly replace Roy Khan. Tommy is great… but.
Black Halo remains one of my favorite albums ever. Mainly because of the theme of the story. My mother loved my taste in music, and i miss her terribly😢
One of the best songs ever played, sung and written. I really miss Khan, I am happy he is living for himself but my heart yearns for him to work with Kamelot one last time!
His new stuff with Conception is gorgeous though. Waywardly Broken I think is up there with any performance he did with Kamelot. His guest appearances lately have been great too
У меня есть своя маленькая история знакомства с группой Kamelot: когда-то (как сейчас помню: в сентябре 2014ого) я писала фанфик по одному из произведений про короля Артура, и, переводя на английский название главы, неправильно написала название крепости Камелот. Решила загуглить, что я написала… и с тех пор конкретно этот Камелот меня не отпускает вообще никак.

Siempre ha sido mi favorito, le pone pasión a cada una de sus canciones, cuando leí de su retiro noooo, pero volvió tenía que volver una de las voces más hermosas no podía perderse. =)

I agree with everyone in this thread, and I think it's just too good and too much depth for the mainstream. Mature themes. People in the US are anything but mature. Trust me, I live here. The entire rest of the world likes them tho, so, I'll take that as a win for Kamelot. Roy Khan is the best vocalist ever, his handicam bootlegs are better than most vocalists studio recordings with all the magic you can throw at them.
Timothy Rice Please point me to the right crowd, lol. I know there's people out there, I see them at concerts. I'm just saying people in other countries tend to be... better? Cooler? I don't hate my country at all but the culture here has some issues.
ProgrsvTechniq Lol.... I think you know what I'm talking about. The beauty of music, is in the ear of the beholder. That said... listen on my friend. Listen on.
Timothy Rice That is true, I guess I'm being cynical and opinionated. But some part of me can't help but think, this sounds so good, how are so many missing out?

This man's voice never ceases to send chills down my spine and make my hair stand on end.
Absolutely marvelous!

They are 40 years ahead of their time. The Time of Metal is coming....
I was there at this concert....💖🤘
You're so f lucky
If that’s true, you’re essentially a prophet. You witnessed miracles, now go forth and spread the word.
Thats awesome. I found them in 2010 when my dad passed and Khan left. Their music helped me alot. But as sad it was Roy left i did give Tommy a chance. For the shoes he had to fill I'm happy. Plus Roy's back in Conception and Tommy has music in Seventh Wonder and Ayreon..also Casey is drumming for Queensryche now.
You're a legend then my dear
His voice give me chills, i feel i want to cry when i hear this song. Roy Khan i miss you so damn much :'(
I hope you have been following his return with his band Conception. :)
That white confetti simulating snow is an AWESOME effect. These guys are more than just musicians. They are performance artists.
for me, this is the best live performance into the atmosphere of the original song... EVER
Do you know the whole story of the albums Epica and Black Halo?. The whole albums and the songs tel a beautiful story,they are genious!!!
Can you imagine a collaboration between Kamelot and Nightwish?
MAYBE.... IS ROCK BABY!!
Yes! The best!
The only Kamelot line-up that matters:
Roy Khan
Thomas Youngblood
Glenn Barry
Casey Grillo
Oliver Palotai
I used to think so too. Absolutely adored Khan. And then one cold winters night, I listened to Tommy Karevik.
the best vocals in metal
No... I mean don't get me wrong Khan is great... but the best? Nah
He IS unreplaceable! Now with Tommy Kamelot sounds bland!
Mmm maybe...
But he is definitely on par with vocalists like Dickinson, Dio, Halford and Kiske!!!
+ he reunited with his old band Conception. They released a new ep last week. Freaking awesome!!!
Geoff Tate and Queensryche did this 30 year's ago. But yeah he is great!!
I would say the best in what he does.

Once my life was plain and clear
I recall
Once my ignorance was bliss
Nighfall came
Like a serpent's kiss
To my troubled mind
Why oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide
Binding promises were made
On my soul
Grand delusions lead astray
Ice-cold wings swept my heart away
Bring me back to you
Why oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide
I remember a song
Like in a dream
Where September was long
And winter unreal
Why oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide
Ice cold Winds* not wings

Never get tired of saying we miss you khan :')
Angel Roy Khan is active again with his former band Conception!!!
Yup. He's back!!!!!!!!!!!!
lovepeople Hu Like a dream come true my friend! :)
Khan is back. He put a song on youtube quite recently :) The song is called 'For All'. Search for 'Roy Khan - For All'.
And this is by far the best cover I've found
th-cam.com/video/w7kvGiG2snU/w-d-xo.html
There are two songs in this video: Abandoned and When the Lights are Down.
Kamelot is amazing!
I was thinking "It's hard to think that it is the same song... It looks like two different songs..." thank you ;)
River wideeeeeeee" Danm, this part is so angelical. What a fucking angel voice! Never get tired of this, even passing years since I heard this as my first Kamelot song! I was get in the first time!
One of the best voices in this music genre 💜

This is Roy showing us his very soul. I haven’t watched this concert in awhile, but it still “sweeps my heart away.”
Black Halo remains one of my favorite albums ever. Mainly because of the theme of the story. My mother loved my taste in music, and i miss her terribly😢
Missing Roy khan so much!
the 5 who disliked this should be abandoned from hearing music
que homem...!!!!!que voz!!!!!que apresentação!!!!!!!!te amo cara !!!!
Alessandra Araujo Izidoro brasil!
HOMÃO DA PORRA

I love to just imagine seeing this live and be apart of that crowd, this is just such a beautiful composition
My favorite band
This deserves 7 billion views
Roy has one of the best voices ever.
Que voz e que presença encantadora!Perfeitos!Banda e vocalista preferidos!😍
Nice touch with the snow. Love Kamelot with Khan. Glad I saw them several times with him.
One of the best songs ever played, sung and written. I really miss Khan, I am happy he is living for himself but my heart yearns for him to work with Kamelot one last time!
His new stuff with Conception is gorgeous though. Waywardly Broken I think is up there with any performance he did with Kamelot. His guest appearances lately have been great too
Masterpiece. True Heart & Soul. BlackHalo roxxx! #Kamelot #1. Severely underrated band. Deserving of all the fame. Norway's best group.

Мне тоже повезло что наткнулся на них... И знакомство так же произошло 2014)
whyyyyyy....oh why my roy have you abandoned me....:(
l.xtasy He's back! He's making music again...♥😭
I am dead serious! And I can't describe how happy I am about it.
Rejoice! The King is BACK!!!

We will always be missing you!❤️ You made Kamelot!❤️🤘🏻
Profoundly moving performance by one of my favourite singers. Brings back awesome memories.
I was very lucky to see kamelot with Roy Khan at Manhattan. Years ago.
que potente la emoción que siento al escuchar la parte desde 3:10 wow me encanta Roy!
Just best of the best ballad...
Roy Khan é o cara!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing song and voice!
Siempre ha sido mi favorito, le pone pasión a cada una de sus canciones, cuando leí de su retiro noooo, pero volvió tenía que volver una de las voces más hermosas no podía perderse. =)
No disrespect to Tommy but Khan has "IT"
So true. Not the same without Khan. The vocals. The songwriting. Everything.
Perfect song.....💔💔💔
Wow... just like that.... the legend Roy
Abandoned AND When the lights are down
♥
It is a crime that Roy never made it to Broadway
Am I the only guy that would pay my left kidney to have a Tarja Turunen, Roy Khan supergroup assemble?
I love the song
Roy Khan, I miss you!
Sigue activo con su banda Conception.
I love this... it's so beautiful!!!
No puedo creer lo que acabo de escuchar. Por dios
Oh Roy.... 😍😍😍😍😍

I live in the US and Kamelot does have a nice following here. They headline here. Not huge places, but nice size.
Roy khan best voice
three people were abbandoned!
Khan, we love you
Saudades de um bom e velho rock 🤘🏻
There's no atheist once this song starts.
WHEN THE LIGHT ARE DOWN LYRICS:
Rules without exceptions last eternally
Every move you make creates your destiny
I've come to soak my sorrow in halo black
As black as the seal on my soul
'Cause when the lights are down
There's no more to say
Love is the real pain
An internal revolution in my mind
And when the lights are down
You're so far away
Tell me your real name
In the silence of the darkness we unite
Rules without exceptions last eternally
Every move you make creates your destiny
What can protect me from the past
And all the things that I have done
She told me and then she was gone
But when the lights are down
There's no more to say
Deep in the shadows
Where the last of my delusions made a stand
'Cause when the lights are down
She'll take me away
Tell me her real name
And in death we'll live the love we never had
Come all ye faithful beneath the moon
Beneath the moon beneath the moon
Into the void as one
Marching on
'Cause when the lights are down
There's no more to say
Love is the real pain
An internal revolution in my mind
'Cause when the lights are down
She'll take me away
Tell me her real name
And in death we'll live the love we never had
Great!
Awesome track and awesome performance
Miss you Khan
There's a reason some call him the voice of God
Phenomenal.
Khan I love you
Wow,
such a melody
Nightfaall caaaame
Like a serpent”s kisss
adorei essa musica muito boa
It's gonna take a whole lot of talent and skills to restore his vacant space. ....
