Thanks for your inspiring words, Beth, I’m honored that you enjoy my weird music! And I learned quite a lot from your technical comments, very interesting. You made my day, please keep up the good work! And thanks everyone for the warm comments below. Hugs from Holland 😊
Holy cow! I had never heard this before. It is amazing. What a collection of talented people. Including the stage production. I guess it is time to go down the Ayreon rabbit hole.
The most viewed Ayreon videos are a bit older. Every two years there is a new concert series, last one was 5 concerts in September 2023. Arjen / Ayreon is making all blueray concert clips available now on YT. You'll recognise them by the greenish tubelike frame. Those concerts were wonderful as well, was happy to be there. Check them out!
Irene Jansen ,Lizette van der Berg and Matcela Bovio as the Ayreon Angels . Even the drummer, Ed Warby sings .He has a great voice too. Greetings from nwAse Sweden
Marcela Bovio is almost Floor level! Watch/hear her covering Nightwish' "Getsemane" at home: th-cam.com/video/KwuIDaK4-3o/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9TH4veciVBm43wHa
You completely missed the fact that there was another Jansen on stage ;) Her sister is doing a massive job in the chorus :) Loved your reaction as always ❤
@@Methras Do I guess that that is not a reproach to Beth? 'Completely' can give that idea. We have to cherish Beth and her reactions, she is the sweetest and the best! 😊
@@benbermusics Everyone overlooks the backup singers. Every top reviewer don't mention them. There is so much talent on this stage that they focus on the leads. Beth was very good with the names and bands the leads are with. They are called Ayreon's Angels and they are from left to right Irene Jansen, Lisette Van Den Berg and Marcela Bovio. There is a vodeo on youtube called "Ayreon's Angels take the lead" and the man himself Arjen Lucassen talks about how wonderful they are. Watch it. Beth is one of the best. No doubt about it. Peace!
The song is only so many minutes long and Beth can't keep on pausing..😃. Maybe in a next video the Angels can get more attention. Btw in the Castle concert Lisette and Irene were not there but replaced by Jan Willem Ketelaers and Dianne van Giersbergen. In the recent live version of The Day That the World... the chorus singers are Jan Willem Ketelaers and Irene Jansen and Marcela Bovio. The latter two do Floor's part, she could not attend.
Yesssssss. Waking Dreams, Comatose, and Star of Sirrah are probably my top 3, but it's so hard to pick. I'll probably change my mind again at some point.
Your facial expressions at the start are almost as spectacular as the song and the video! :D Arjen (and his producer, Joost) really deserve a ton of kudos for creating this music and putting on these shows. And Mike Mills is criminally underrated. That's a B5 at 0:35! Is he even human? Fun fact: One of the backing singers is Floor's sister, Irene. She doesn't seem to be a full-time musician, but she performs regularly with Ayreon and Arjen's other projects.
Irene has a day job as a school administrator. She never really wanted to be a touring singer like her older sister. Shes been apart of Arjens projects since 2001.
i got to see Ayreon last Sept at the "Beneath the Waves" concert in Tilburg, Flew all the way from South Carolina and it was a bucket list concert for me to see these projects live. Worth every dime i spent..
Last night I was lucky enough to see Floor in the flesh in a solo concert. We were blown away. I had 2 tickets, a gift from my daughter so I asked my brother in law who wasn’t familiar with Floor and not particularly a fan of Symphonic rock or metal. In the middle of the concert he exclaimed “wow, she is soooo good!” He was floored and got his first floorgasme! Seeing and hearing her life just amazed me that she can sing almost two hours with so much power and controle.
No ego`s on show , just very talented musicians enjoying themselves and having fun away from the day job . More talent in the backing singers than a score of pop tarts .
I've been lucky to get hands on one ticket for the saturday matinee of the beneath the waves show. To me, it was even more spectacular than the universe show!
One of the few professional actual voice competence people Ive been watching now for years is our Beth. Keep at it, you are like the Toehider of reactors, you actual practice what you preach. Mike just released a Beyoncé cover on spotify btw. I hope you hear it.
Ayreon are always a treat! I discovered many great singers after listening to them. Made me a big fan of Magali Luyten and Marcela Bovio (one of the backing vocals in this vid).
A very old video on Toehider channel is Michael Mills doing vocal warmups to a CD on a long car ride. First he starts with the male warmups and then goes the female warmup tracks. He's so amazing.
Yea even Marko sings in that show. "Eye of Ra" is song where all musicians show together on stage. It is really big crowd of top musicians that gathered together.
Arjen has all but confirmed he will be doing another weekend in Tilburg @ 013 Poppodium. It indeed takes a lot of organizing to get all these amazing talents on stage, but the result is worth it. I've been to the last 2, especially the Electric Castle show was amazing (mostly cause I love that album and the story was easy to follow). You should really make an effort to come visit us then.
Referring to metal singers, “Everybody has such great technique, people really understand the geekery of voice” is almost a profound remark, it’s so true! If only more people realized this, the radio airwaves would be a much better place.
Yes! Ayreon is my favorite band EVER. This song is an amazing example of vocal performance from it, but I really recommend everyone to go and watch Electric Castle And Other Tales, it features an amazing cast of voices including Fish (from Marillion). Thanks for this Beth.
Another fantastic vocal performance is Ayreon - Twisted Coil from the Electric Castle And Other Tales concert, it is a masterclass in interpreting a song by Damian WIlson.
The final piece of the the show "The Eye of Ra" has the entire cast on stage at once and that's an unsane amount of talent. Something close to 18 very talented metal singers and Arjen himself also joins in
Check out everything from Ayreon. Up to 25 main singers from an epic level combining forces. And these fan-tas-tic musicians.....where to start? They are the top!!!! Arjen Lucassen is composing this epic rock for more than 30 years now. So it is quite a Rabbit Hole to discover. If you are into singing, this is your mekka.
Please check out Avantasia, another project featuring singers like Bob Carley (Magnum), Floor Jansen, Alice Cooper, Roy Khan (ex-kamelot), and many others. I had the pleasure of seeing them live at Rock Imperium in June and it's the best show I've ever seen.
More Ayreon....!! Arjen is a genius, a great musician and expert. We are waiting for their (his) other songs!!! btw. the backing vocals are sung by sister Floor Jansen, Irene + Marcela Bovio + Lisette van den Berg.
You absolutely should to 'Fate of Man' from the latest Ayreon concert. Brittany Slayes might even de-throne Floor with her vocal performance on that one.
If you want to see an absolute overload of talent on the stage at the same time time, listen to the last song on the show… never seen a choir with more over-qualified singers in it…
I've listened to them for quite a while. I like their concept albums. Sometimes watching them it makes me think this is what metal heads look like when they become rich dads and get sober.
Hi Beth, greetings from UK I just love your reactions to Floor, Nightwish and other Symphonic MJetal, thank you I also love how you have improved your reaction style with the use of captions. It looks very clear and professional, KUDOS 🥰
The singer with the highest highs and lowest lows, playing the robot is Michael Mills, singer of Australian progressive band Toehider. If you get around to listen to the album's opening track _The Day That the World Breaks Down_ you can hear him sing a binary sequence - with pathos.
This is a reaction I’ve been waiting for a long time! You missed the awesome Ayreon Angles… Lisette van den Berg, is my favorite. But Marcela and Irene are amazing also. Even the small parts have amazing singers with Ayreon. ❤
I don't envy the task it must be to objectively analyze an Ayreon song and the vocalists performances; I always end just feeling stupefied and drawn into the spectacle. I guess that's why it's so enjoyable.
I wish these Ayreon concerts weren't on the other side of the world. So many of my favourite singers on one stage. I did see Toehider (Mike Mills) live recently and Mike was great. Maggy Luyten is another fave too: her work with Beautiful Sin and Epysode are phenomenal.
Fun fact: Magali Luyten is a substitute for Tobias Sammet, who is in the albums "the captain". Tobias, of course, is the creator of Avantasia project. PS: (I can never admit it in public, but Magali did better job than, I suspect, Tobias could ever had in this live setting... :D
Despierto en la madrugada y me encuentro con este video y solo lo puedo reducir en una sola palabra FANTÁSTICO 🎉🎉🎉🎉 bien señorita Beth 👏👏🍀🍀 mi H Prrj ❤
i thought i misread that the first time... AYREON?! please do all their stuff!!!! you see, you dont search Ayreon for a song you search for full albums, so please please please listen to "Universal Migrator part1+2" PLEASE!!
You picked up on Magali Luyten singing lower than the guy's, in fact all the lines Magali sings are sung by male vocalist on the original recording. In fact Arjen uses her a lot to fill in for male vocalists in his live shows.
i really believe, there is something special in the Dutch water (or cheese) to have given us so many amazing bands, singers, musicians and producers over the last 30 to 40 years. and Arjen Lucassen is someone who brings them all together with many international singers as well. i think you could really spend at least weeks (or months) listening and watching Ayreon concept albums and live shows. i know i did during lockdowns. This was taken from Universe, a kind of Best Of. The Theater Equation, Electric Castle and Live beneath the Waves are shows were they played the entire album with some bonus songs. it doesn't matter if he gets the original cast together or not. the songs are beautiful. If you'd like to hear more of Maggie, i highly recommend Intergalactic Space Invaders, my favourite from this show. The Day That the World Breaks Down, Isis and Osiris and Day Two: Isolation are from the other 3 Enjoy!

I think you should take a look at Ironmouse singing. She's a V tuber who has a chronic illness that has forced her to relearn to talk and speak. The damage done at one time has permanently altered her voice. She was in training to be an opera singer when she was diagnosed with CVID. The songs you will find on youtube are great. Amazing if you consider she is on an oxygen feed. She sang like Shakira so closely it caused copyright strikes. She also sings in what she calls her opera voice singing from The Scarlet Pimpernel. Bonus is she has a charity subathoon on Twitch coming up.
Hi Beth!! Will you please listen to "Sing Child" and "White Lightning and Wine", both are by Heart. They have a lot of great songs. Some others that I love are "Cook with Fire", "Go on Cry", "Little Queen", "Mistral Wind", "Love Alive" and I could probably name 50 more that I love.🥰
Seeing these fantastic performers, in their professional setting; I as a musician sometimes get a bit frustrated when I hear myself ( But it doesn't mean i am giving up and stop making music!!!) because of what John Miles sang Music was my first love , and it will be my last! Greetings from the Netherlands.
Always find it funny how underrated Hansi is when people react to Ayreon. Probably partly since his mixing with Ayreon is always a bit buried for some reason. Even in the title it says "Royalty" and then names three singers whose careers are not even close to Hansi's :D
You think such a combo of high tenor and low alto makes for a musical palette that is more earthy and warm in its net timbre? Generally speaking the lower the voicetype the more warm their higher register, wind instruments included. Overtones leading to tinniness or butteriness or warmth etc.
welcome to Magali Luyten, another amazing metal singer 6:23 the best thing, Arjen is being posting this things on his channel this same week... so enjoy, forget about reacting please, for your own good
i really like your comments and workwomanship and thank you for a great video as always. Tiny caveat about how you handle certain situations. When you pause a video and explain something, then rewind to listen to the same part, please dont pause it again at the same point to explain some other stuff....try to incorporate all your knowledge to one explanation per pause because multiple pauses on the same point in the song/video gets tiring and deteriorates the experience a little. Just my opinion but all in all i really enjoy your videos and i wish you a great upcoming fall!
You knows there is only one person who have been make song lyrics of only 0100110,take an look at the day that the world brakes down,the newest verson from live beneath the waves
If you're so amazed by this group of (tremendously great) singers and musicians on stage, you should definitely react to 'Eye of Ra' live: th-cam.com/video/odcO0SciTUY/w-d-xo.html
Always amazes me how the backing vocalists get ignored. I have 3 albums by Marcelo and 1 by Lysette. Irene is almost as good as her sister. As a fellow Scot I am not downing on Beth, all reactors seem to do the same.
I would say the adventure begins far in the past, about some hundreds of million years ago. The ten humans and TH-1 the android escape from planet Alpha in the Andromeda galaxy, a planet that will collapse because of some errors that the AI (the 'Frame) made. In their starship Star Blade the humans are converted into the Forever, telepathic, water breathing and not prone to aging and sickness. After the journey the Forever start living and thriving on planet Y which is a water world. Being immortal keeps away death, and TH-1 starts building new constructions to make the life of the Forever comfortable. Still they miss something, the Forever lose the talent to feel emotions. The beginning of the storyline in the album 01011001 is Age of Shadows/We are Forever. The Forever decide to build up a new humanity on a far-away planet with their and local DNA. This is the song Ride the Comet.The Forever arrive on planet Earth and set up our humanity. After much goes wrong, the horrified Forever reach back in time and collect eight random characters to fulfil a quest. This will allow the Forever to collect much needed emotions. Thus this is a story in the future, when the real humanity is gone... The album, and almost all songs are on "Into the Electric Castle and other Tales".

Holy cow! I had never heard this before. It is amazing. What a collection of talented people. Including the stage production. I guess it is time to go down the Ayreon rabbit hole.
I suggest the next video you watch from Ayreon be The Day That The World Breaks Down. It's in many ways even better than this one.

I think you should take a look at Ironmouse singing. She's a V tuber who has a chronic illness that has forced her to relearn to talk and speak. The damage done at one time has permanently altered her voice.
She was in training to be an opera singer when she was diagnosed with CVID.
The songs you will find on youtube are great. Amazing if you consider she is on an oxygen feed.
She sang like Shakira so closely it caused copyright strikes. She also sings in what she calls her opera voice singing from The Scarlet Pimpernel.
Bonus is she has a charity subathoon on Twitch coming up.
Hi Beth!! Will you please listen to "Sing Child" and "White Lightning and Wine", both are by Heart. They have a lot of great songs. Some others that I love are "Cook with Fire", "Go on Cry", "Little Queen", "Mistral Wind", "Love Alive" and I could probably name 50 more that I love.🥰
Your ü in Kürsch was perfekt! But the German "sch" is just pronounces like "sh" in English.
I really hope one day i could see one of their liver performances...
Be quick. They only do them every couple of years and they always sell out in minutes.
Queen
For an even bigger amount of insane talent on one stage, check out Ayreon's performance "The Eye of Ra"
Finally!
You know, I love, when people who know their stuff gushing about my favourites... XD
Seeing these fantastic performers, in their professional setting; I as a musician sometimes get a bit frustrated when I hear myself ( But it doesn't mean i am giving up and stop making music!!!) because of what John Miles sang Music was my first love , and it will be my last! Greetings from the Netherlands.
The last Dies was Maggy right? you see Floor but hear Maggy I think
Would like to see You doing something with Rebecca V./// Vocals-singing!❤
Always find it funny how underrated Hansi is when people react to Ayreon. Probably partly since his mixing with Ayreon is always a bit buried for some reason.
Even in the title it says "Royalty" and then names three singers whose careers are not even close to Hansi's :D
The robotic arms are Betty and Wilma! 🤘🎸
You think such a combo of high tenor and low alto makes for a musical palette that is more earthy and warm in its net timbre? Generally speaking the lower the voicetype the more warm their higher register, wind instruments included. Overtones leading to tinniness or butteriness or warmth etc.
welcome to Magali Luyten, another amazing metal singer 6:23
the best thing, Arjen is being posting this things on his channel this same week... so enjoy, forget about reacting please, for your own good
Listen to the song the sixth extinction live from the new DVD, its even better 😂
Next: "And the Druids Turn to Stone" and "the castle hall"
Both songs are with Damian Wilson, a imo brilliant singer
Maggy is kind of like a female Axl Rose, she can use her voice in so many ways and it is fantastic.
i really like your comments and workwomanship and thank you for a great video as always. Tiny caveat about how you handle certain situations. When you pause a video and explain something, then rewind to listen to the same part, please dont pause it again at the same point to explain some other stuff....try to incorporate all your knowledge to one explanation per pause because multiple pauses on the same point in the song/video gets tiring and deteriorates the experience a little. Just my opinion but all in all i really enjoy your videos and i wish you a great upcoming fall!
You knows there is only one person who have been make song lyrics of only 0100110,take an look at the day that the world brakes down,the newest verson from live beneath the waves
Beth, you need to see a Brazilian singer called Ricky Vallen performing still loving you from scorpions
The industrial robots on stage were baptized Wilma and Betty
And the real biologist is in the center of the backing vocals... powerhouse Lisette van den Berg MSc 🙃
To pronounce Hansi's surname properly, just think of Sean Connery trying to say "curse".
Lol
Please react to Marcela Bovio band called Stream os Passion
😍😘🤘✌
If you're so amazed by this group of (tremendously great) singers and musicians on stage, you should definitely react to 'Eye of Ra' live: th-cam.com/video/odcO0SciTUY/w-d-xo.html
Oh yeah, anytime Maggy shows up things just get h e a v y
Always amazes me how the backing vocalists get ignored. I have 3 albums by Marcelo and 1 by Lysette. Irene is almost as good as her sister. As a fellow Scot I am not downing on Beth, all reactors seem to do the same.
I would say the adventure begins far in the past, about some hundreds of million years ago. The ten humans and TH-1 the android escape from planet Alpha in the Andromeda galaxy, a planet that will collapse because of some errors that the AI (the 'Frame) made. In their starship Star Blade the humans are converted into the Forever, telepathic, water breathing and not prone to aging and sickness. After the journey the Forever start living and thriving on planet Y which is a water world. Being immortal keeps away death, and TH-1 starts building new constructions to make the life of the Forever comfortable. Still they miss something, the Forever lose the talent to feel emotions. The beginning of the storyline in the album 01011001 is Age of Shadows/We are Forever. The Forever decide to build up a new humanity on a far-away planet with their and local DNA. This is the song Ride the Comet.The Forever arrive on planet Earth and set up our humanity. After much goes wrong, the horrified Forever reach back in time and collect eight random characters to fulfil a quest. This will allow the Forever to collect much needed emotions. Thus this is a story in the future, when the real humanity is gone... The album, and almost all songs are on "Into the Electric Castle and other Tales".
You need to give a listen to Falling in Reverse or Dayseeker
Please Beth you must to react to The Warning with 'Hell You Call A Dream' from Pepsi Center
