Give a listen to Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Christmas Eve / Sarajevo (Timeless Version)
Yes, this is a must....
💯💯💯💯💯 and watch some of the concert footage. Truely amazing to see in person the lights .. and fire
Or the original track off the Savatage album "Dead Winter Dead"
♥ I highly suggest their song: Christmas Eve/Sarajevo
Based on Johann Pachelbel's "Canon in D major". There are many versions on TH-cam. A lot of people chose it as their wedding march.
Trans Siberian Orchestra formed out of a 80's Heavy Metal Band called "Savatage". TSO Have a tour that happens around the world at Christmas time and you two should check it out. It is really good.
Florida band that put out some great albums
Take the kids too
they rose from Savatage - first on "Dead Winter Dead" - a rock opera about a love story set against the backdrop of the freedom and simultaneous war for control over Sarajevo in the late 80s.
Carol Of The Bells is one that rocks. Short and sweet. This one was very nice. Thanks Sam and Phil.
My favorite Christmas tune. However performed. Just so good!
If you see a live show from start to finish, you’ll definitely get more orchestra
We love TSO and have been going to their Christmas concerts since 2004. Old City Bar, Ornament, Good King Joy, Promises to Keep, Christmas Eve/Sarajevo and my favorite This Christmas Day are all fantastic and they're all from Christmas Eve and other stories. They have great music attached to each story they tell.
I have seen them live and if you ever have the opportunity to see them, I can't put into words how much I recommend you take it. It's unlike anything else you will ever experience
formed out of a 80's Heavy Metal Band called "Savatage....HALL OF THE MOUNTAIN KING
The lead singer is Jennifer Cella, she has since left the band. They are not the same without her. She was the BEST!
You get music.
Then you get classical music.
And then... You get PACHELBEL.
You're finally home. ❤💪❤
This is a GREAT show live. You'll never listen to 'Christmas Music' the same again. (Add Christmas Truce on top of it for more...)
The one and only Jennifer Cella. She's the GOAT of Christmas Canon Rock
Lawdy, these people put on a hell of a show. I've never seen a better concert.
I hope you do more of this. I know I'm only a youtube subscriber but I grew up with Pual's nephews. He was a great man and I miss him and all he did. You should check out he Bethoven album. It's an amazing story. Love you guys and all you do. And shout out to the cuzs Alex, Eric, and Hann. Thank you for taking me to see your uncle. And I'll never forget what he did for me when I went to the hospital.
I have seen TSO in concert EVERY year since 1999 (minus Covid years). They get better and better every year
(( 🎸 )) the first time I got into Trans-Siberian orchestra was Thanksgiving night around 7:30 on the pbs network. At first I didn't know what to think of them but after watching the whole Christmas special, it was so mind-blowing 🤯 I have been a fan since then.
When they perform live with 2 seperate bands (East/West coast) they donate $1 from every ticket sold to a local charity in city they are in. This year they raised $1 million
One of the best fusions of rock and classical out there. Check out the band Savatage which is where most of the rockers of TSO came from. Check out the song Edge of Thorns. So glad to see someone finally do a reaction to TSO. I've seen them 3 times in concert, always in a small hall...300-500 people.
Seen them 5 times. Love them. The beginning Instrumental was the entrance music to our wedding.
You should check out Savatage Christmas Eve 12/24 ( I'm sure you will recognize it when you hear it) it is now a staple with TSO. probably their most famous song . Savatage was a highly under-rated Metal /Prog rock band during the 80's thru the early 2000's they were one of the pioneers in combining metal with classical eventually through numerous member changes they eventually evolved into TSO..
Absolutely beautiful! Trans Siberian Orchestra never disappoints. When it began I thought I was hearing Canon in D, by Johan Pachelbel, and that may be where the inspiration for this comes from.
If you're interested, Chip Davis formed an ensemble, called Mannheim Steamroller, which fused classical, new age, and rock. The music they put out was nothing short of breathtaking. What's impressive to me is how he arranged a Christmas song I don't even like into one that I find beguiling and entrancing...now my favorite piece by them: "The Holly and the Ivy."
The music is classical music, a work called Pachelbel's Canon. It was popularized when used as the main theme of Robert Redford's directing debut movie "Ordinary People," and this version of it somebody (don't know who) borrowed the music and added words to it to create a Christmas song. There's a recording of a children's chorus singing this same song that is very beautiful and not the least bit rocky that has also become popular.
And the original version is done by Trans-Siberian Orchestra
"Christmas Jam" is an absolute must! You hafta!
You should watch the trans- siberian orchestra Christmas canon with the young children.
We go to the TSO show every year (for the past 20 years!) They have both great metal and really moving songs. “Christmas nights in blue”, “promises to keep”, and “old city bar” are some of their more moving songs.
I was fortunate to see them in San Antonio several years ago and it was one of the best concerts I have ever been to, they really put out some amazing performances and music.
Best version. The way Jen (I think that's her name) holds that note. Amazing!
I love TSO and have seen their Christmas concert twice. It's a great live performance. So many great rock infused classic Christmas classics.
The show they put on is definitely an experience! If ya get a chance to see em you'll be glad you went.
This would not have been the first TSO song I would have recommended.
Sam your talking about the version that has the choir,I like that better myself!
Great reaction. You should check out their version from Sarajevo where they have a choir of children singing and they use a full orchestra. So many more amazing songs
The "synchronized hair flip" by the chorus near the end is a TSO tradition 😄
Unfortunately it comes later in the song than their clip shows
If you evert want to see a real production you need to see them in concert.
Great guitar solo by Christopher Caffery from Savatage, Doctor Butcher and Spirits Of Fire. Also has released several solo albums
TSO is amazing. One of the best stage shows you can see anywhere. They have two crews that tour from Mid November to New Years Eve. One is the East Group, touring East of the Mississippi River and the other is the West crew that tours only West of the Mississippi. They will have up to 4 shows a day (2 East and 2 West) during that time. Can I suggest a couple of other TSO songs that are Amazing: "Wizards in Winter", the other version of this song, "Christmas Canon", "Siberian Sleigh Ride", "Wish Liszt (Toy Shop Madness)", "Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24". These are from their Christmas story CD's, of which there are three. They have 4 other albums that are a better mash up of classical music and rock. All of them are fabulous.
You could do a couple of these songs in one reaction video as they are very short, 3-4 minutes.
They are amazing seeing them live
TSO has a Christmas special, Christmas Eve Sarajevo. As a bonus, Twisted Sister also has a Christmas special yall need to check out
TSO has a lot of good music. This is one of my favorites for decades.
The Snow Came Down is my favorite
As great as this is, there is a version with young kids singing that blows me away!!!
If you want to react to a great Christmas song, I would recommend "Blue Christmas" by...Porky Pig! It's my favorite! 😄🐷
This ^
There is also a non rock version by TSO with children singing which is beautiful!
TSO became the masters of Christmas with the first note of their first album (Christmas Eve & Other Stories). A mixture of original songs and their take on classics, I've always said that it took a bunch of "heathens" to get Christmas music right!
It took Paul O’Neill and Bob Kinkel to get it right and kick those kids in the ass and get them to focus on music rather than getting in bar brawls and wrecking hotel rooms 😉😂
Happy Holiday. TSO is such a great concert to go to I recommend it
Hi love all channel All are so sweet love all. Merry Christmas
An amazing band . I saw them in concert on Long Island, NY and they blew me away. Second best concert that I’ve ever attended. The guest artists that they had at the end of this concert was the one and only Roger Daltrey, lead legendary vocalist of The WHO, which is one of my all time favorite rock ‘n roll bands!They have both a large band and orchestra up on the large stage!
It's likely you have heard a couple songs by them before, Christmas eve Sarajevo, and Wizards in Winter. The second had a video that went viral with Christmas lights set to it years ago. But as many of the previous commenter's have mentioned, this band grew from another called Savatage. Whether you do a reaction to it or not, check out Edge of Thorns by them. You can really hear the operatic metal feel that led to TSO
You could also check out TSO's Chirstmas Eve/Sarajevo. Very rock, Nice orchestra, very Christmas.
The song is based on Pachelbel's Canon in D Minor. Christmas CANON rock.
A must listen to is Caroling Bells
Johann Pachelbel's "Canon in D major, written 300 years ago. Music is timeless.
One of my favorites by them, but this is a shortened version of the song. Cuts off Jennifer Cella's final 15 second vocal showcase.
TSO was a "spin-off" project from the band Savatage, and many of the Savatage line-up still perform with TSO as they did from the beginning.
Savatage was a power metal band from the 80s who evolved into a more progressive metal band in the late-80s with the arrival of Paul O'Neill in 1987 as their producer and eventual songwriting contributor and concept album collaborator, right up to the band's final release in 2001.
TSO was a project of necessity when O'Neill's attempt to get radio airplay for Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24/1990), the single from the 1995 Savatage album Dead Winter Dead ; all the local radio stations refused to play metal, and would not even give the track a listen, simply cos the name "Savatage" was on it. O'Neill created some new music in a concept holiday album called Christmas Eve & Other Stories, which featured the same single, unaltered in any way except that the album and the song were now under the moniker of Trans-Siberian Orchestra. This was the perfect subterfuge when O'Neill returned to the radio stations the following year (with the CE&OS album's release in 1996), and had them play the same song - which they did (this is why I hate radio)... and the switchboards LIT UP (like a Christmas Tree) with listeners calling in wanting to know - as the track was instrumental - the name of artist, and the title of this hard rock rendition of Carol of The Bells.
TSO released a total of 3 holiday themed concept albums (CE&OS in 1996, The Christmas Attic in 1998, and The Lost Christmas Eve in 2004) which were also linked with each other conceptually, forming the "Christmas Trilogy", as well as 2 non-holiday concept albums (Beethoven's Last Night in 2000, and Night Castle in 2009), plus an EP (Dreams Of Fireflies On A Christmas Night in 2012) and one final album (Letters From The Labyrinth in 2015) in a quasi-concept format. Much of the TSO's material features several traditional holiday carols and classical compositions by Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky and more, plus selections from the Savatage catalog, all reworked for TSO releases, including The Mountain (previously Prelude To Madness under Savatage, from their 1987 album Hall of The Mountain King), Believe, Stay, Heal My Soul (all 3 from the 1991 album Streets and its sessions), Mozart & Memories (previously Mozart & Madness from the 1995 album Dead Winter Dead), and Back To A Reason (from the 2001 album Poets & Madmen).
In addition to the shared Savatage/TSO track Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24/1990), TSO's best tracks include :
First Snow
A Mad Russian's Christmas
Mozart & Madness
Boughs Of Holly
Midnight Christmas Eve
Christmas Canon (sans Rock)
Appalachian Snowfall
The Lost Christmas Eve
Wizards In Winter
Christmas Jam
Grinch
What Is Christmas
Wish Liszt (Toy Shop Madness)
What Child Is This
Overture / Midnight / Fate
What Is Eternal
Requiem (The Fifth)
The Dark
The Mountain
Night Castle
Winter Palace
Nutrocker
Carmina Burana (O Fortuna)
Forget About The Blame
Mountain Labyrinth
Trans-Siberian Orchestra "Carol Of The Bells"--it's epic. Just a suggestion...
Taking nothing away from the ladies, but you should react to the original "Christmas Cannon". Hearing it from the voices of children makes it feel more special.
they also have some songs with a children's chorus .
Seen TSO three times, amazing show! Also saw Savatage three times back in the day, you should definitely check them out, I think Gutter Ballet might be a good place to start!
Every Christmas TSO has a great sales.
This song so reminds me of laying out on a ambush in the jungle on Christmas Eve.
Love Trans siberian Orchestra. Great to see live.
Please react to The song Stranglehold by Ted nugent
👍👍👍
Christmas season guys so can I again suggest top uk group Slade, their 6th No.1 song which is its 50yr anniversary this year and still charting is huge in the uk. Merry Xmas Everybody
Great reaction, Sam and Phil! TSO does a Christmas Tour every year with songs like this one. I've seen them live two or three times and they put on a heck of a show. They usually invite members of local school bands to participate in the shows and donate to their schools.
This is not even the full version. The studio version is better and longer. She sings even more amazing melody towards the end of this song but they cut it off in this live version. Trans Siberian Orchestra is amazing.
If, by chance you can find anything featuring Jennifer Cella who is the vocal lead here, you will be very pleased! Always enjoy the reactions and hope you have a great holidays!
Father Christmas by the kinks
I thought that this interpretation of Pachelbel's Canon in D was ingenious to use the vocalists to carry the melody.
The actual railroad goes from Moscow all the way to Mongolia, NE China, or the Russian Far East, and I believe it's also possible to start in St. Petersburg.
Check out TSO's Music Box Blues, Daryl Pettiford's version. It's outstanding.
If you are interested in this type of christmasy sound you should check out Mannheim Steamroller. Any of the Fresh Aire albums are great. The Jethro Tull Christmas Album is a good listen also. Some of the songs I like are Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow, Last Man At The Party, Weathercock and Fire at Midnight. There are also some traditional songs like God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Greensleeved, Ring Out Solstice Bells and Birthday Card at Christmas.
The original version is very Christmasy the vocals are by a Child’s choir
This is just MAJESTIC! compared to the one you're watching! Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Christmas Canon th-cam.com/video/4cP26ndrmtg/w-d-xo.html
do a review of TSO doing their song "Wizards in Winter"
Sam, if this song sounds familiar to you, are you.familiar with Maroon 5's Memories? Both it and this song are based off of Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D Major, so the music is the same in both.
You want something different, give Santa Claus Boogie by the Tractors a listen.
I do have a request i think you said your religious so a band i really like is Disciple and there song My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy that came out in 1997 it blew me away when my friend let me hear it
Please check out tso christmas eve sarajevo.
Please check out Savatage 🙏
PS I’m surprised that you haven’t heard it
OK i´m new around here ! You , Sir , sound like Corpse Husband´s little brother 😉 maybe you´ve heard that before...but i´d love you guys to react to E-Girls are ruining my life by Corpse . Maybe after christmas though 🙏
please react to song FOREVER MORE by Cakra khan
Maybe listen privately; not a request. Watch the video of this with the children's choir. Precious.
Pachelbel's Canon was composed in the late 1600's. The reason they say it's top 10 ever is partly because it's been around so long. This version is obviously an interpretation that takes a (my opinion) relatively boring and repetitive piece into the rock/synthesized world. This group/band does some amazing stuff!! This composition is just boring in my opinion. I've always thought that about this canon, regardless of the version. I strongly suggest checking out some other TSO for better examples of how they can go bonkers!
Sorry but the TSO performance with the children's choir is the much superior version of this song.
Is everyone that suggests songs to you all named Mark? And sorry, don't like TSO (they are mostly just damn loud, which takes away from the music in my opinion) - but hope you all are having a nice holiday season.
th-cam.com/video/-u0Bp2kGA9M/w-d-xo.html much better version
There are many songs they do with various different feels.
I suggest their joy to the world/christmas eve. It has a bit more blues to it. Then theres the o holy night with michael crawford (an amazing english actor and comedian who was the phantom of the opera on broad way in 1988 and reprise the role in 1991) helping out for a more opera feel. A few more popular rock oriented ones are wizard in winter, carol of the bells, sarejevo, and a mad russians christmas.
They are so great with their christmas albums. They also have a few other themed albums that are great like "Beethovens Last Night" and "night castle". Both of which have a narrated story to go with their albums just like the christmas album collection does. Which I really like. It gives off that same warm feeling you get as a kid letting your mind wander off in imaginaton as your parents read you a bed time story. Its really a great experience to listen/watch them on cd/dvd but even better in concert. They are soooo talented and bring such a unique experience to the table.
👍👍👍👍👍
