Yep, saying 'I don't like metal' is like saying 'I don't like cheese'; what type of cheese? It's such a huge, diverse category but sadly too many people assume it's black/ death/ doom and nothing more...
It's interesting how Epica and Within Temptation are Dutch bands, and Nightwish is a Finnish band. Basically the whole symphonic metal genre is in Northern Europe. Must be the air or something.
Don't forget the lead singer form Nightwish is Dutch as well :P -and Delain is worth a mention as well as Dutch band. And in the Finnish scene are a lot more bands as well.- Indeed must be something in the air ;)
If you look at Germany and other European countries, although not as prolific, have a good Symphonic Metal culture as well. My theory is that is because classical symphonic music is more entrenched in their culture than other parts of the world. It is not uncommon for kids to be brought up listening to both Metal and Classical music. Would be interested on others thoughts about this.
Not only is Simone Simons incredibly talented and gifted but also she's strikingly beautiful & charismatic. A true metal goddess. Just like Tarja, Ailyn, Lori Lewis, Sharon etc, just to cite a few. We're beyond lucky to being able to listen to and appreciate each and every one of them🤘
I'm not even sure what it is about this, something about the synergy between the video, lyrics and the song itself is just beautiful. Something honestly feels inspiring about it to me, which I can't truthfully say about any other music video I've watched. I keep coming back to it whenever I need a little encouragement.
Along the way I find myself to be confined within me No place for any other's mind to interfere To grasp the meaning of it all, to overcome my limits And dance away from any void and empty tones Just tell me why Just tell me how I can survive this time Believe yourself and look away from all that's right within you Leave all your worries at the door and drift away I've tried to peer into the core but could not storm the sorrow My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray Another time Without a trace Condemn me now Send me to hell for I'm already failing Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark Realize the pain we live in Demonize the need we reel in No, in my memories I'll dig deep enough to know Centuries of dreams unending Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed No time should ever go to waste, it's not that complicated You're free to live your life at ease no more restraints No heed for shadows on your way that try to steal your laughter Your light will drive them all away be confident Will I refrain?

Fuzzy Terror Technically there's probably no arguing with that. However, when so much symphonic metal is just pop/rock with a keyboard on top it's hard not to love Epica for staying with a proper metal sound, even on their more mainstream songs. If you want to hear what I mean go check out Unsun - Whispers and then come back here. :P
dragonzrmetal Not saying anything bad about her voice and I'm sorry to hear she's ill. What I don't really like about Unsun and many other symphonic metal bands is that there's no "grit" or attitude to the music. When I listen to Epicas "Martyr of the free word" for instance, there's a lot of that attitude that's missing from Unsuns "Whispers". You may like Unsun regardless, and that's absolutely fine. It's just not my cup of symphonic metal. :)
@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы you're joking right? Nightwish is much bigger in terms of music, writing, every memeber in this band is the best in their field. But then, art is a subjective matter... so.
@@levalaleen5241 Nope, not joking. Currently having Epica and Sirenia as my all-time favourites in symphonic metal, Nightwish is far away, somewhere in my top 10. Why? Because I just almost never got goosebumps by their music. It's just that the choirs/vocal harmonization is a lot in the background, power metal-esque, not really high-pitched, a-v-e-r-a-g-e. While Sirenia's choir is outstanding, Epica's choir is also huge; both Epica and Sirenia have more variety - using tempo switches, growl vocals, choirs, normal female vocals, the occasional rare opera-esque vocal... this is some serious compositional diversity. And mostly, I'm getting goosebumps all the time. The Latin Sirenian choir never fails, Ailyn's voice was something unique and special in Perils and TSLP (these albums are so epic in my list that I rarely listen to them so I don't get "used to them" cuz I'm getting shivers throughout their whole entirety). And in Nightwish? Tarja's lyric soprano didn't help either cuz lyric ones don't use power in their voice, they use delicacy and they sing out long lyric lines. Which is less epic than Xandria's ex-singer Manuela Kraller who is a dramatic soprano - dramatic ones are the exact opposite - they use sheer power and can sing clearly over a full orchestra (while a lyric one can only be heard over it) or Dianne van Giersbergen who is a spinto sporano who is somewhere in between both and combines both. Anette never sung operaticly; Floor basically never sings opera and I'd rather say her vocal performance in EFMB was rather boring - she reached something like E5 or F5 in the whole album while her range reaches something like D6 (at least the new album was better, yay). Sooo here this is why I consider NW overrated
@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы if you like showing your musical knowledge go to a fucking therion video. AND epica and sirenia are really just mediocre music, but Nightwish and AVANTASIA are in a league of their own. Ask anyone really.
"Storm The Sorrow" Along the way I find myself 沿著路追尋自我 To be confined within me 受限在我體內的真我 No place for any other's mind to interfere 不留任何讓他人思緒干擾的空間 To grasp the meaning of it all 只為理解一切的意義 To overcome my limits 超越我的極限 And dance away from any void and empty tones, 然後逃離所有虛無和空洞的調子

AbyssRaider indeed she is beautifull. i just find it sad that she is the center of attention. IMO Epica is a group. it's not only simone. it's to centered on here
Ребята, вы молодцы. Соединили два противоположных жанра, как день и ночь. Каждое Ваше произведение это шедевр. БРАВО !!!! Guys, you are great. They combined two opposite genres, like day and night. Each of your creations is a masterpiece. BRAVO!!!!
Believe yourself and look away From all that's right within you Leave all your worries at the door and drift away, I’ve tried to peer into the core But could not storm the sorrow My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray
Adead dude I’ve seen you on multiple EPICA videos telling people to kill themself. Chill my guy, you’re not doing the band any justice. If anything you are sickening their reputation by coming off as a cancerous elitist who wants everyone to share a similar opinion about the band. You can voice your opinion but voice it less radically, or just stay silent and let people say what they think and let them be.
She and the whole band did improve on the last years. Her voice was always beautiful, but now it's cleaner... And the clip is pretty professional, very different from the phantom agony ones.
Thank god I got to see Epica: "Design Your Universe" Tour 2019. November 3rd. As Epic they sound here on video, they are the same live. Pura vida Epica!
Oh definitely! I seen them live during the original “Design Your Universe” tour in 2010. The tour you seen was for the 10th anniversary of that album. Cheers!
Visualmente, este es uno de mis videos favoritos de Epica. Realmente creo que es un muy buen concepto y edición y la canción también es de mis favoritas. Epica siempre entregando música y contenido de calidad.
I personally feel like there is a big difference between Epica and other bands like Delain. I believe Simone Simons makes the big difference along with the rest of the band and the choir and each song is unique. With the aggressive atmosphere, balance and variety that characterizes their music, the feeling you get after listening to one of their songs is indescribable.
@@Zhiar Delain is not a baby metal ...... this is a serious group, which is very successful with symphonic and gothic motifs and arrangements, and the Epica is more a gothic team ------ but real baby metal ---- th-cam.com/video/H_yATzyi-3g/w-d-xo.html -, only I do I did not understand, I'm probably not a very smart music lover!
*Storm The Sorrow* Ao longo do caminho eu me encontro Para ser confinado dentro de mim Sem lugar para a mente de qualquer outro interferir Para entender o significado de tudo Para superar meus limites E dançar longe de qualquer vazio e tons vazios Apenas me diga por que Apenas me diga como eu posso sobreviver desta vez Acredite em si mesmo e olhe para longe De tudo o que está bem dentro de você Deixe todas as suas preocupações na porta e vá embora, Eu tentei perscrutar o âmago Mas não consegui atacar a tristeza Meu coração vazio me sangrou até secar, me deixou perdido Outra vez Sem deixar rastros Me condene agora Mande-me para o inferno Pois eu já estou falhando Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade que temos em nenhum Em minhas memórias eu cavarei fundo o suficiente para conhecer Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu Não há tempo para desperdiçar Não é tão complicado Você é livre para viver sua vida à vontade Sem mais restrições Sem atenção às sombras em seu caminho Que tentam roubar seu riso Sua luz irá afastá-los todos Seja confiante Vou me abster? Posso me arrepender? Você estará lá? Apague a página Pois estou sozinho e doente Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade em que não temos Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para conhecer Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que derramou lágrimas quando alguém traiu Então Está é a minha vida E isso não pode me derrubar Vá, eu decidirei Quem pode entrar e curar minha doença Queime-a em chamas Mate-a e mutilar Por que você não pode ver que você precisa ser libertado? Entrelace as linhas sob a escuridão Cada pedaço de dor que estamos sentindo Cada outra vida solene, não Nas memórias você encontrará de alguma forma Costumava haver um sonho sem fim Não há mais necessidade de ficar sozinho Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade que sentimos Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para saber Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu Alguém traiu
While I can't state enough that she has an amazing voice, my favorite bit was with the male singer. Few people can mix that raw aggression with the melodic stuff that well. Can someone tell me the guys name?
I've read all the idiotic posts and I've gotta say this is refreshing like Opera meets Metal... not to mention the beautiful redheaded singer...this music although hard-to-put-your-finger-on the genre.. is very innovative to say the least , so to all the negative posters keep hatin,..doubt that you could do better and to Epica,...Rock on!!!...and thanks for something unique and different!!!
***** At least they did. Don't forget that Nightwish fired their operatic vocalist, Tarja Turunen, in October of 2005, and hired a classic rock vocalist by the name of Anette Olzon as their new frontwoman in 2007. Ms. Olzon was fired in September of 2012, and the frontwoman of ReVamp (as well as the the former frontwoman of After Forever), Floor Jansen, (a good friend of both Nightwish and Ms. Turunen) was asked to step in for the rest of the tour (both legs in the Americas), and was subsequently confirmed as the new vocalist in October of 2013. Nightwish released their first studio album with Ms. Jansen as their frontwoman at the end of last month. They could once again do the opera-meets-metal thing to the fullest, because Ms. Jansen is a proper metal vocalist who has operatic capabilities, but they don't want her using her operatic technique (though apparently "Stargazers" has made a reappearance on the setlist - the first time since 2004 - and she uses it there), instead focusing on other aspects of her brilliant voice..
Hahhahsha, your comment made me laugh, I didn't notice at first sight how that black liquid resembled Venom but now I can't help but be reminded a little of Spiderman
A mi amigo le gusta Épica,así que vine a escuchar un poco de ellos,porque el habla de esta banda con mucho entusiasmo y quiero aprender de ellos,quiero saber porque a mi amigo lo hacen tan feliz.
Music like this should be fucking mainstream. Not the pop shit we get shoved down our throats today. It's almost hurtful how many people will remain ignorant of amazing music like Epica and all the other great bands out there simply out of lack of exposure (compared to all the other shit). It's just sad.
Agreed about the lack of exposure. Plenty of people would love this music if they just knew it existed. Sadly people generally only rely on mainstream radios so they miss great, intelligent music :/
MrAgonious Nope-nope-nope!!! I want top level metal to remain intact for a musical elite, not to be listened to by stupid mobs that don't really understand it.
Popularity kills quality. I want my metal bands obscure and unloved. That way I know that they'll make their own music, not cater to the masses and make crap, like pop does.
Music like this will not go mainstream with grunts and growls. It is also too heavy for regular radio airplay, and it is too European. Simone isn't 17 years old anymore, and the U.S. market loves their Lolita pop stars. Yeah, it is just sad.
this song can be important for ocd phobic people who now have a hard time when there really is an invisible danger of viral roulette going on. / Years ago Epicas singer Simone survived a dangerous bacterial infection. Then she developped a phobia for contamination. This song is about breaking free from that mental health issue.
I've heard of Epica for a long time but this is the first time I listen to them and I'm just mad at myself for waiting that much I'm crying and that's not a joke
Every band has one music video by which is immediately recognized. If I must choose the best song which describes Epica is this one. Everything about this video is EPIC literally, music, choreography etc. just no words! This is why band is called EPICA. Also its my first song from this band and I fell in love in their songs. 10/10 rating from me!
Fuddy Duddy i like the band and her music and her voice but i dont like she and her personality yes she is of plastic baby in the streets the girls normal" are not as she and she is not real the womans are real normally...
I can't handle Simone's voice. I'm always looking for a song that won't mesmerize me, but it's never happened. Even after listening to the same songs after one hundred years, she still makes me cry.
Elton John once said of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica that it was one of the beautiful songs ever written. I can't really disagree, however I submit this song to that category.. This song is perfection, every note, beginning to end. It still moves me after the 100th listen.
I have no idea what the lyrics are or what the song is about. Apparently it's about a chick (possibly Dana Scully) being consumed by the Venom Symbiote, William Wallace stuck outside of his castle in the rain wishing someone would invent the umbrella already, a mysterious eagle possibly bent on pecking out Wallace's eyeballs, and a medieval version of the Dog Whisperer with a totally badass wolf minion. Oh, and some witch (also possibly Dana Scully) who used an enchant spell on me. That's what I interpreted this song to be since the lyrics were cancelled-out by the harmonics of the instrument EQ levels. Sounded good, though, even if the lyrics need a WWII Navajo code-talker to translate it. Thumbs up. :)
+Goattacular Would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR SIMONE!
+jason briggs She kicks the socks off some of the band's in the UK\US Nowadays! Mind you Sharon from Within Temptation is pretty good to or Tarja (old Night wish ) Floor (new night wish) 😁
A lo largo del camino me encuentro a mi mismo Para estar confinado dentro de mi No hay lugar para que ninguna otra mente interfiera Para comprender el significado de todo esto Para superar mis limites Y bailar lejos de cualquier vacío y de tonos vacíos Sólo dime por qué? Sólo dime cómo puedo sobrevivir esta vez? Cree en ti mismo y apartate De todo lo que esta bien dentro de ti Deja todas tus preocupaciones en la puerta Y alejate He tratado de ver dentro del núcleo Pero no podría atormentarme con las penas MI corazón vacío se ha desangrado, me dejo errante Otra vez! Sin rastro! Condename ahora! Enivame al infierno! Pues ya estoy fallando! Líneas entrelazadas Que nadan bajo la oscuridad Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer Siglos de sueños sin fin Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien había traicionado No hay tiempo que deba echarse a perder No es tan complicado Eres libre de vivir tu vida a gusto Sin mas restricciones Sin prestar atención a las sombras en tu camino Que intentan robar tu sonrisa Tu luz las conducirá muy lejos Confía! Me abstendrè! Puedo arrepentirme? Estarás ahí? Borra la página Porque estoy solo y enfermo Líneas entrelazadas Que nadan bajo la oscuridad Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer Siglos de sueños sin fin Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien había traicionado "Entonces Esta es mi vida y no puedo acabar con ella Vamos! Decidire! Quien puede venir Y sanar mi enfermedad Arde en llamas! Mata y mutila! Por qué no puedes ver que necesitas ser liberado!" Líneas entrelazadas nadan bajo la oscuridad Cada poco de dolor que estamos sintiendo Cada otra vida solemne No! En mis recuerdos encontraras de alguna manera Solía haber un sueño sin fin Ya no es necesario estar solo Líneas entrelazadas Que nadan bajo la oscuridad Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer Siglos de sueños sin fin Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien habia traicionado Alguien habia traicionado
I don't think it's the best, especially if you consider both their last album (The Quantum Enigma and The Holographic Principle) which got a lot of great song (the Second stone, the Essence of silence, Victim of contingency and Beyond the Matrix, Edge of the blade, Universal death squad, etc.
Everyone talks about how good Simone is but man, Mark is super underappreciated. Not only is his writing up there with the greatest prog and classical writers but his guitar work and the growls are always on point. Plus, his role as the chief/king in this video was downright awesome.
@@Too-Odd The growls and screams are not a product of 1999. They're a stylistic choice and while it may not be for everyone, there's nothing wrong with it. In fact, harsh vocals like that add a LOT to the emotional impact and the intensity of songs.
@@jakobfel2 Simone Simons has beautiful vocals in this song, but no song with growls like that makes my playlist. After Forever, had Floor Jansen, and Mark wrecked many of those songs thinking that death growls were cool back then too. Yeah, it is a stylistic choice, and music changes. Growl vocalists had their half decade of fame, and it is time for them to leave the vocals to these talented women who can actually sing. Luckily for me, I can replace that part of the song with just instrumentals and add it to my playlist.
@@Too-Odd It has nothing to do with "being cool" or it supposedly going out of style. If anything, harsh vocals are more "in" now than they've ever been. It may not be YOUR taste but it's the signature of this band and there's nothing wrong with that.
@@jakobfel2 Of course it is my taste, and I am allowed to comment on it. Harsh vocals may be "in" for a small group of listeners, but it is one one the reasons metal music has gone underground because most people dislike it. This is a fantastic song with a great video otherwise, and everyone I have showed it to says, "That's great other than that one part," and they will never listen to it again or likely nothing else from Epica because of it. You can believe it is a generational thing, or a "taste" thing, but it is a music thing. Growling sounds bad, and it cheapens every song it touches.
I love so much this song. A great reflection, helped me a lot in my anguish moments to not get into depression again. I have made it my hymn. I love Epica!

She's probably a siren. You better run away before it's too late! I'm already under the spell of her voice, so it's too late for me, but it might not be too late for you!
Maarten Lauwereys I've seen images of her on her Instagram with different hair colours, I saw one of her which looked like Floor Jansen and one which she looked like Alissa White-Gluz
gofojibwas Natural redheads are almost always blue-eyed, maybe sometimes green-eyed(though I've never seen one) but NEVER brown or hazel. Goes against genetics.
Metal is such a wide genre. You have aggressive thrash, slow ballads, symphonic metal. One of the widest genres of music out there for sure.
Yep, saying 'I don't like metal' is like saying 'I don't like cheese'; what type of cheese? It's such a huge, diverse category but sadly too many people assume it's black/ death/ doom and nothing more...
Electronic has far wider array of genres.
yeah and dont forget about AARGHHAHHHHHHHHhhHHHH metal
@Bloviator Magnus that is a seriously dumb statement dude.
Like seriously do you even know what electronic music is?

If you look at Germany and other European countries, although not as prolific, have a good Symphonic Metal culture as well.

It is not uncommon for kids to be brought up listening to both Metal and Classical music. Would be interested on others thoughts about this.
believe me I am Dutch and let me tell you it is not the air
So basically Iceland, Ireland, Scotland, Norway, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Estonia are basically the best of the best.
Almost 12 years later and this is still one of the best music videos Ive ever seen. In my book, it would've won a grammy back when it was released.
Not enough blackness and hip-hop, or ass. Let's not kid ourselves. That's the nature of pop culture and the industry at large.
A7X Afterlife is stunning as well
parallel dimensions /states /timelines shown
metal songs can be very refreshing intelligence-wise
Epica and Nightwish are the faces of symphonic metal in my head and they always will be
Don't forget Kamelot.
+Lance And Within Temptation
Delain
Well, even name of Epica originates from Kamelot's album, don't forget about it :P
And the MOST important band of symphonic metal: Lacrimosa.
Not only is Simone Simons incredibly talented and gifted but also she's strikingly beautiful & charismatic. A true metal goddess. Just like Tarja, Ailyn, Lori Lewis, Sharon etc, just to cite a few. We're beyond lucky to being able to listen to and appreciate each and every one of them🤘
Simone Simons, Tarja Turunen, Sharon den Adel, Amy Lee, Cristina Scabbia, 5 powerful voices of the nowadays metal.
Anette Olzon Too 🤘🤘🔥🔥
Can't forget Floor Jansen
At 63 years old, I find this music fascinating. It's the combination of symphonic, metal rock, and Simone's strong vocals! Great stuff!
Me too!
I'm not even sure what it is about this, something about the synergy between the video, lyrics and the song itself is just beautiful. Something honestly feels inspiring about it to me, which I can't truthfully say about any other music video I've watched. I keep coming back to it whenever I need a little encouragement.
It’s about stepping into your higher self
Where no ones voices cloud your thoughts.
The moment when they are both singing at the same time is absolutely amazing. Blown away!
🤘
I'm in love with her voice. She's unique.
And she didn't even use her operatic vocals in this song :)
Her vocals are outstanding 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤘🤩🤘🤩🤘
The only thing more beautiful than Simone is Epica's music and the vocals she provides. Match made in heaven. 🙏🙏
Simone's voice is like an angel's voice - when you hear her voice you probably will have goosebumps on the whole body. She is unique!!!
Simone su voz es inconfundible 🎶🥰✨
imagina a simone y tarja seria un temazo. Dos grandes voces fusionandose

Along the way I find myself
to be confined within me
No place for any other's mind to interfere
To grasp the meaning of it all,
to overcome my limits
And dance away from any void and empty tones
Just tell me why
Just tell me how I can survive this time
Believe yourself and look away
from all that's right within you
Leave all your worries at the door and drift away
I've tried to peer into the core
but could not storm the sorrow
My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray
Another time
Without a trace
Condemn me now
Send me to hell for I'm already failing
Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in
No, in my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
No time should ever go to waste,
it's not that complicated
You're free to live your life at ease no more restraints
No heed for shadows on your way
that try to steal your laughter
Your light will drive them all away be confident
Will I refrain?
Can I repent?
Will you be there?
Erease the page for I'm alone and ailing
Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in
No, in my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
So, this is my mind
And you can´t break me down
Go, I will decide
Who can come in
And heal my disease
Burn it in flames
Kill it and maim
Why can't you see that you need to be freed
Intertwine the lines beneath the dark
Every bit of pain we're feeling
Every other solemn life
No, in the memories you will find somehow
There used to be a dream unending
No one need to be alone
Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in
No, in my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
Someone had betrayed
Aki está en español
Tormenta de Penas
A lo largo del camino me encuentro a mi mismo
Para estar confinado dentro de mi
No hay lugar para que ninguna otra mente interfiera
Para comprender el significado de todo esto
Para superar mis limites
y bailar lejos de cualquier vacío y de tonos vacíos
Sólo dime por qué
Sólo dime cómo puedo sobrevivir esta vez
Cree en ti mismo y apartate
De todo lo que esta bien dentro de ti
Deja todas tus preocupaciones en la puerta
Y alejate
He tratado de ver dentro del nucleo
Pero no podria atormentarme con las penas
MI corazon vacío se ha desangrado, me dejo errante
Otra vez
Sin rastro
Condename ahora
Enivame al infierno
Pues ya estoy fallando
Lineas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien habia traicionado
No hay tiempo que deba echarse a perder
No es tan complicado
Eres libre de vivir tu vida a gusto
Sin mas restricciones
Sin prestar atencion a las sombras en tu camino
Que intentan robar tu sonrisa
Tu luz las conducira muy lejos
Confìa
Me abstendrè?
Puedo arrepentirme?
Estaras ahi?
Borra la pagina
Porque estoy solo y enfermo
Lineas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien habia traicionado
Entonces
Esta es mi vida y no puedo acabar con ella
Vamos
Decidire
Quien puede venir
y sanar mi enfermedad
Arde en llamas
Mata y mutila
Por qué no puedes vr que necesitas ser liberado
Lineas entrelazadas nadan bajo la oscuridad
Cada poco de dolor que estamos sintiendo
Cada otra vida solemne
No
En mis recuerdos encontraras de alguna manera
Solia haber un sueño sin fin
Ya no es necesario estar solo
Lineas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien habia traicionado
Alguien habia traicionado
i was looking for the lyrics lol
Karol Carvajal merci pour les paroles. Thank you for the lyrics.
Kiss from Paris💋🗼
I relate tbh
Everybody are crying out how much they love Simone and her voice. I'm just listening to the blast beat
Metal cred, brah. :D
In the chorus?
Soo much better blast beat if you listen to early death metal.
Fuzzy Terror Technically there's probably no arguing with that. However, when so much symphonic metal is just pop/rock with a keyboard on top it's hard not to love Epica for staying with a proper metal sound, even on their more mainstream songs. If you want to hear what I mean go check out Unsun - Whispers and then come back here. :P
dragonzrmetal Not saying anything bad about her voice and I'm sorry to hear she's ill. What I don't really like about Unsun and many other symphonic metal bands is that there's no "grit" or attitude to the music. When I listen to Epicas "Martyr of the free word" for instance, there's a lot of that attitude that's missing from Unsuns "Whispers". You may like Unsun regardless, and that's absolutely fine. It's just not my cup of symphonic metal. :)
Epica ft venom

OMG! Her eyes, her voice, this video, is awesome and beatiful. aTube Catcher here we go!
Nightwish and Epica, i love symphonic metal 😍
Sirenia, Xandria, Imperia > Nightwish = Amberian Dawn
Epica? Don't know yet. Still listening. Yet to decide.
Hey, where Within Temptation? Bro🙂
@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы you're joking right? Nightwish is much bigger in terms of music, writing, every memeber in this band is the best in their field. But then, art is a subjective matter... so.
@@levalaleen5241 Nope, not joking. Currently having Epica and Sirenia as my all-time favourites in symphonic metal, Nightwish is far away, somewhere in my top 10. Why? Because I just almost never got goosebumps by their music. It's just that the choirs/vocal harmonization is a lot in the background, power metal-esque, not really high-pitched, a-v-e-r-a-g-e. While Sirenia's choir is outstanding, Epica's choir is also huge; both Epica and Sirenia have more variety - using tempo switches, growl vocals, choirs, normal female vocals, the occasional rare opera-esque vocal... this is some serious compositional diversity. And mostly, I'm getting goosebumps all the time. The Latin Sirenian choir never fails, Ailyn's voice was something unique and special in Perils and TSLP (these albums are so epic in my list that I rarely listen to them so I don't get "used to them" cuz I'm getting shivers throughout their whole entirety). And in Nightwish? Tarja's lyric soprano didn't help either cuz lyric ones don't use power in their voice, they use delicacy and they sing out long lyric lines. Which is less epic than Xandria's ex-singer Manuela Kraller who is a dramatic soprano - dramatic ones are the exact opposite - they use sheer power and can sing clearly over a full orchestra (while a lyric one can only be heard over it) or Dianne van Giersbergen who is a spinto sporano who is somewhere in between both and combines both. Anette never sung operaticly; Floor basically never sings opera and I'd rather say her vocal performance in EFMB was rather boring - she reached something like E5 or F5 in the whole album while her range reaches something like D6 (at least the new album was better, yay). Sooo here this is why I consider NW overrated
@@ГеоргиПеев-й3ы if you like showing your musical knowledge go to a fucking therion video. AND epica and sirenia are really just mediocre music, but Nightwish and AVANTASIA are in a league of their own. Ask anyone really.

The growl in this song is sooo brutal and masculine. It gets me every time. The video amplifies the melody really well on that part. Masterpiece.
2:12 I love that little movement that she does with her head
I've been in love with Epica for years because their music is absolutely amazing... But I can't help but comment on how beautiful Simone is...
AbyssRaider Jeah she looks gorgeous
AbyssRaider indeed she is beautifull. i just find it sad that she is the center of attention. IMO Epica is a group. it's not only simone. it's to centered on here
Marie-helene Simard Way too centered around Simone, I agree. But, yeah, she's beautiful.
Boris Babic if you like screaming music there are other bands i think this is one of their best songs ,
and who stole my dreams that is one hot video
Dom Ex WHat? I can't find the song you recommended.
Ребята, вы молодцы. Соединили два противоположных жанра, как день и ночь. Каждое Ваше произведение это шедевр. БРАВО !!!!
Guys, you are great. They combined two opposite genres, like day and night. Each of your creations is a masterpiece. BRAVO!!!!
Simone's head movements at 2:12. Love it
Ya somos dos.
omg I thought Im the only one
classic isfp head movement xd. like my girlfriend
A little sass within the beauty
Believe yourself and look away

Nah, not even close to Epica, and the music is pale too.
The best TIDE Ad of all time if you ask me.
Saw this band in 2017 in Dallas Texas. It was an amazing night, this band is even better live. Such a great year it was for me.
I'm blown away. Never heard a song so good.
Curtis Yue It's EPICA my mannnnnnn
I'm blown away. Never heard a song so bad.
then you don't hear songs so often xD
Rahim Abdelli Either that or he listens to the radio
Adead dude I’ve seen you on multiple EPICA videos telling people to kill themself. Chill my guy, you’re not doing the band any justice. If anything you are sickening their reputation by coming off as a cancerous elitist who wants everyone to share a similar opinion about the band. You can voice your opinion but voice it less radically, or just stay silent and let people say what they think and let them be.
Confesso que o vocal dela me fez chorar... Lindo demais!!! E ainda da uma certa determinação.
Verdade mano
Yeeessss
She and the whole band did improve on the last years. Her voice was always beautiful, but now it's cleaner... And the clip is pretty professional, very different from the phantom agony ones.
did you see this in 8k ? #hdfactory
Thanks! Much more details!

Amazing! The transition in the last part to the angelic voice of Simone is so movingly!
Thank god I got to see Epica: "Design Your Universe" Tour 2019. November 3rd.
As Epic they sound here on video, they are the same live. Pura vida Epica!
Oh definitely! I seen them live during the original “Design Your Universe” tour in 2010. The tour you seen was for the 10th anniversary of that album. Cheers!
Inspiring as it's beautiful, with a deep meaning. This one will always have a special place in my heart.

Those eyes are unreal... damn she's pretty and talented. I love this band !!!
One of the best, precious, pieces of art on the music history.
Masterpiece!!! Look and voice Simone's penetrate deep into the soul, and i am grateful to fate for what I found Epica.
Visualmente, este es uno de mis videos favoritos de Epica. Realmente creo que es un muy buen concepto y edición y la canción también es de mis favoritas. Epica siempre entregando música y contenido de calidad.
I personally feel like there is a big difference between Epica and other bands like Delain. I believe Simone Simons makes the big difference along with the rest of the band and the choir and each song is unique. With the aggressive atmosphere, balance and variety that characterizes their music, the feeling you get after listening to one of their songs is indescribable.
are you crazy? Why are you comparing Delain with Epica? They're a Babymetal band, Epica is Symphonic Metal.
Virtuez agreed, Epica is just on another lever, should compare them with Night wish instead
Virtuez . I think the same my dear ! after decades of metal i have elected the best band on Earth : EPICA
*Knock* *Knock* Sirenia in their last albums is AT LEAST AS variable as Epica.
@@Zhiar Delain is not a baby metal ...... this is a serious group, which is very successful with symphonic and gothic motifs and arrangements, and the Epica is more a gothic team ------ but real baby metal ---- th-cam.com/video/H_yATzyi-3g/w-d-xo.html -, only I do I did not understand, I'm probably not a very smart music lover!
What a masterpiece! From the music, to the voice, and the astonishing video effects...perfection!
"No heed for shadows on your way that try to steal your laughter" is so good I got it tattooed on me.
*Storm The Sorrow*
Ao longo do caminho eu me encontro
Para ser confinado dentro de mim
Sem lugar para a mente de qualquer outro interferir
Para entender o significado de tudo
Para superar meus limites
E dançar longe de qualquer vazio e tons vazios
Apenas me diga por que
Apenas me diga como eu posso sobreviver desta vez
Acredite em si mesmo e olhe para longe
De tudo o que está bem dentro de você
Deixe todas as suas preocupações na porta e vá embora,
Eu tentei perscrutar o âmago
Mas não consegui atacar a tristeza
Meu coração vazio me sangrou até secar, me deixou perdido
Outra vez
Sem deixar rastros
Me condene agora
Mande-me para o inferno
Pois eu já estou falhando
Entrelace as linhas
Que nadam sob a escuridão
Perceba a dor em que vivemos
Demonize a necessidade que temos em nenhum
Em minhas memórias eu cavarei fundo o suficiente para conhecer
Séculos de sonhos sem fim
Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu
Não há tempo para desperdiçar
Não é tão complicado
Você é livre para viver sua vida à vontade
Sem mais restrições
Sem atenção às sombras em seu caminho
Que tentam roubar seu riso
Sua luz irá afastá-los todos
Seja confiante
Vou me abster?
Posso me arrepender?
Você estará lá?
Apague a página
Pois estou sozinho e doente
Entrelace as linhas
Que nadam sob a escuridão
Perceba a dor em que vivemos
Demonize a necessidade em que não temos
Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para conhecer
Séculos de sonhos sem fim
Outro eu que derramou lágrimas quando alguém traiu
Então
Está é a minha vida
E isso não pode me derrubar
Vá, eu decidirei
Quem pode entrar e curar minha doença
Queime-a em chamas
Mate-a e mutilar
Por que você não pode ver que você precisa ser libertado?
Entrelace as linhas sob a escuridão
Cada pedaço de dor que estamos sentindo
Cada outra vida solene, não
Nas memórias você encontrará de alguma forma
Costumava haver um sonho sem fim
Não há mais necessidade de ficar sozinho
Entrelace as linhas
Que nadam sob a escuridão
Perceba a dor em que vivemos
Demonize a necessidade que sentimos
Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para saber
Séculos de sonhos sem fim
Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu
Alguém traiu
While I can't state enough that she has an amazing voice, my favorite bit was with the male singer. Few people can mix that raw aggression with the melodic stuff that well. Can someone tell me the guys name?
He's Mark Jansen, founder of Epica ;)
Another singer who can do that extremely well imo is Jari Mäenpää from Wintersun. Look up their album Time I and you'll see what I mean.
Thanks dude! I'll give that a listen.
His name is Mark Jansen
Eu não me canso de assistir esse vídeo,Simone e o Epica são fantásticos.
Bom gosto ❤
I've read all the idiotic posts and I've gotta say this is refreshing like Opera meets Metal... not to mention the beautiful redheaded singer...this music although hard-to-put-your-finger-on the genre.. is very innovative to say the least , so to all the negative posters keep hatin,..doubt that you could do better and to Epica,...Rock on!!!...and thanks for something unique and different!!!
Thanks Samuel I will!
***** Thanks man! Checking out Nightwish's albums very soon! Can't wait to hear what they sound like!
***** At least they did. Don't forget that Nightwish fired their operatic vocalist, Tarja Turunen, in October of 2005, and hired a classic rock vocalist by the name of Anette Olzon as their new frontwoman in 2007. Ms. Olzon was fired in September of 2012, and the frontwoman of ReVamp (as well as the the former frontwoman of After Forever), Floor Jansen, (a good friend of both Nightwish and Ms. Turunen) was asked to step in for the rest of the tour (both legs in the Americas), and was subsequently confirmed as the new vocalist in October of 2013. Nightwish released their first studio album with Ms. Jansen as their frontwoman at the end of last month. They could once again do the opera-meets-metal thing to the fullest, because Ms. Jansen is a proper metal vocalist who has operatic capabilities, but they don't want her using her operatic technique (though apparently "Stargazers" has made a reappearance on the setlist - the first time since 2004 - and she uses it there), instead focusing on other aspects of her brilliant voice..
If you like the opera and metal mix, check Marchenbilder, Gone in April and Diabulus in Musica!
She's becoming Venom.
Hahhahsha, your comment made me laugh, I didn't notice at first sight how that black liquid resembled Venom but now I can't help but be reminded a little of Spiderman
Ajahhaha
She could be Poison Ivy too.
Captou meu pensamento rsrsrsrsrs
😂😂
She is one of the best females voices period! Not just of metal but in any style!
Rapaz, que isso! Estou chorando aqui... Quase uma terapia de psicanálise essa letra, muita profunda!
É uma pedrada e tanto ❤😅
A mi amigo le gusta Épica,así que vine a escuchar un poco de ellos,porque el habla de esta banda con mucho entusiasmo y quiero aprender de ellos,quiero saber porque a mi amigo lo hacen tan feliz.
Tu amigo tiene buenos gustos muy recomendable esta banda 🤘
Simone is always beautiful in both darkness and light.
Love the twists and turns of this chord progression!
Simphonic metal is so good 👊🏻
Symphonic metal? It's in my top 10 favourites, 5th place before nu metal, alternative metal, heavy metal, and christian metal.
Music like this should be fucking mainstream. Not the pop shit we get shoved down our throats today. It's almost hurtful how many people will remain ignorant of amazing music like Epica and all the other great bands out there simply out of lack of exposure (compared to all the other shit). It's just sad.
Agreed about the lack of exposure. Plenty of people would love this music if they just knew it existed. Sadly people generally only rely on mainstream radios so they miss great, intelligent music :/
MrAgonious Nope-nope-nope!!!
I want top level metal to remain intact for a musical elite, not to be listened to by stupid mobs that don't really understand it.
Popularity kills quality. I want my metal bands obscure and unloved. That way I know that they'll make their own music, not cater to the masses and make crap, like pop does.
Sad is that you trash another genres to bring up metal.
Music like this will not go mainstream with grunts and growls. It is also too heavy for regular radio airplay, and it is too European. Simone isn't 17 years old anymore, and the U.S. market loves their Lolita pop stars. Yeah, it is just sad.
The transition at 3:49 still blows me away every time.
2022 Vim sentir esse som em minha alma novamente depois de 10 anos. Sinto me revigorado!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Tem bom gosto ❤
this song can be important for ocd phobic people who now have a hard time when there really is an invisible danger of viral roulette going on. / Years ago Epicas singer Simone survived a dangerous bacterial infection. Then she developped a phobia for contamination. This song is about breaking free from that mental health issue.
I've heard of Epica for a long time but this is the first time I listen to them and I'm just mad at myself for waiting that much
I'm crying and that's not a joke
Every band has one music video by which is immediately recognized. If I must choose the best song which describes Epica is this one. Everything about this video is EPIC literally, music, choreography etc. just no words! This is why band is called EPICA. Also its my first song from this band and I fell in love in their songs. 10/10 rating from me!
I have already got Epica's album Requiem For The Indifferent on CD!
Perfect vocal perfect band ❤
Mother of all angels her voice is so beautiful!!!!!
she is too beautiful
she is of plastic and the music is not only the beauty of the bitch singer is more
+Bastet Uchiha except she's not of plastic, and the band is pretty good.
Fuddy Duddy i like the band and her music and her voice but i dont like she and her personality yes she is of plastic baby in the streets the girls normal" are not as she and she is not real the womans are real normally...
Fuddy Duddy but i am gotic and i like others band of gotic not epica but is good too.
Bastet Uchiha You are incomprehensible.
She's as beautiful as her voice. Simply amazing.
I can't handle Simone's voice. I'm always looking for a song that won't mesmerize me, but it's never happened. Even after listening to the same songs after one hundred years, she still makes me cry.
Manoooooo ficou ótimo com essa qualidade de vídeo 😍
These eyes, this voice. I fell in love
I'm going to see them live tomorrow, I can't wait!
This is the first Epica song I had ever listened to, 6 years later it's still one of their best ❤️
proud they're from my country! 💞
Hebben we in nederland toch nog iets waar we trots op kunnen zijn 😂😂
+Sverre Kolman precies! 😂
+Sverre Kolman en we hebben Within Temptation en Floor Jansen!
epica best metal Band ever!! Brasil aproves huehue. Angra and epica ^^
***** and Within Temptation!
Elton John once said of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica that it was one of the beautiful songs ever written. I can't really disagree, however I submit this song to that category.. This song is perfection, every note, beginning to end. It still moves me after the 100th listen.

This might actually be my favourite music video of all time. I love its art direction so much
Fiquei um tempo sem ouvir esse tipo de música para ouvir coisas diferentes, mas sempre volto e sempre voltarei a ouvir Épica pois eles são únicos.
my favourite band
This is a great song. In my opinion it is their best song hands down.
I have no idea what the lyrics are or what the song is about. Apparently it's about a chick (possibly Dana Scully) being consumed by the Venom Symbiote, William Wallace stuck outside of his castle in the rain wishing someone would invent the umbrella already, a mysterious eagle possibly bent on pecking out Wallace's eyeballs, and a medieval version of the Dog Whisperer with a totally badass wolf minion. Oh, and some witch (also possibly Dana Scully) who used an enchant spell on me. That's what I interpreted this song to be since the lyrics were cancelled-out by the harmonics of the instrument EQ levels. Sounded good, though, even if the lyrics need a WWII Navajo code-talker to translate it. Thumbs up. :)
+Goattacular Would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR SIMONE!
+jason briggs She kicks the socks off some of the band's in the UK\US Nowadays! Mind you Sharon from Within Temptation is pretty good to or Tarja (old Night wish ) Floor (new night wish) 😁
You won the internet with this comment 😂😂
Fucking brilliant mate
A lo largo del camino me encuentro a mi mismo
Para estar confinado dentro de mi
No hay lugar para que ninguna otra mente interfiera
Para comprender el significado de todo esto
Para superar mis limites
Y bailar lejos de cualquier vacío y de tonos vacíos
Sólo dime por qué?
Sólo dime cómo puedo sobrevivir esta vez?
Cree en ti mismo y apartate
De todo lo que esta bien dentro de ti
Deja todas tus preocupaciones en la puerta
Y alejate
He tratado de ver dentro del núcleo
Pero no podría atormentarme con las penas
MI corazón vacío se ha desangrado, me dejo errante
Otra vez!
Sin rastro!
Condename ahora!
Enivame al infierno!
Pues ya estoy fallando!
Líneas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien había traicionado
No hay tiempo que deba echarse a perder
No es tan complicado
Eres libre de vivir tu vida a gusto
Sin mas restricciones
Sin prestar atención a las sombras en tu camino
Que intentan robar tu sonrisa
Tu luz las conducirá muy lejos
Confía!
Me abstendrè!
Puedo arrepentirme?
Estarás ahí?
Borra la página
Porque estoy solo y enfermo
Líneas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien había traicionado
"Entonces
Esta es mi vida y no puedo acabar con ella
Vamos!
Decidire!
Quien puede venir
Y sanar mi enfermedad
Arde en llamas!
Mata y mutila!
Por qué no puedes ver que necesitas ser liberado!"
Líneas entrelazadas nadan bajo la oscuridad
Cada poco de dolor que estamos sintiendo
Cada otra vida solemne
No!
En mis recuerdos encontraras de alguna manera
Solía haber un sueño sin fin
Ya no es necesario estar solo
Líneas entrelazadas
Que nadan bajo la oscuridad
Date cuenta del dolor en el que vivimos
Demoniza la necesidad en la que tambaleamos
No!, en mis recuerdos voy a excavar profundo, lo suficiente para conocer
Siglos de sueños sin fin
Otro yo que arrojó lágrimas cuando alguien habia traicionado
Alguien habia traicionado
AMAZING!
You know a song has you in its grasp when it keeps pulling you back years later to keep listening to it.
Easily the best song by Epica.
I don't think it's the best, especially if you consider both their last album (The Quantum Enigma and The Holographic Principle) which got a lot of great song (the Second stone, the Essence of silence, Victim of contingency and Beyond the Matrix, Edge of the blade, Universal death squad, etc.
Agreed
absolutely their best song
One of the best songs I've heard .... balanced and strong
Everyone talks about how good Simone is but man, Mark is super underappreciated. Not only is his writing up there with the greatest prog and classical writers but his guitar work and the growls are always on point. Plus, his role as the chief/king in this video was downright awesome.
This would be a fantastic song without the growls. These bands really should get out of 1999 and just go with their lead singers.
@@Too-Odd The growls and screams are not a product of 1999. They're a stylistic choice and while it may not be for everyone, there's nothing wrong with it. In fact, harsh vocals like that add a LOT to the emotional impact and the intensity of songs.
@@jakobfel2 Simone Simons has beautiful vocals in this song, but no song with growls like that makes my playlist. After Forever, had Floor Jansen, and Mark wrecked many of those songs thinking that death growls were cool back then too. Yeah, it is a stylistic choice, and music changes. Growl vocalists had their half decade of fame, and it is time for them to leave the vocals to these talented women who can actually sing. Luckily for me, I can replace that part of the song with just instrumentals and add it to my playlist.
@@Too-Odd It has nothing to do with "being cool" or it supposedly going out of style. If anything, harsh vocals are more "in" now than they've ever been. It may not be YOUR taste but it's the signature of this band and there's nothing wrong with that.
@@jakobfel2 Of course it is my taste, and I am allowed to comment on it. Harsh vocals may be "in" for a small group of listeners, but it is one one the reasons metal music has gone underground because most people dislike it. This is a fantastic song with a great video otherwise, and everyone I have showed it to says, "That's great other than that one part," and they will never listen to it again or likely nothing else from Epica because of it. You can believe it is a generational thing, or a "taste" thing, but it is a music thing. Growling sounds bad, and it cheapens every song it touches.
I love so much this song.
A great reflection, helped me a lot in my anguish moments to not get into depression again.
I have made it my hymn.
I love Epica!
Same here! What are your other fav songs?
I love this song to even though I have clue what it is about and I love her voice to much to focus on the lyrics
This is one of the most amazing things I have ever heard. Your voice is absolutely amazing and I am a fan for life. Holy cow this is awesome.
Me too. I'm a big Nightwish fan, but I just stumbled on this. I'm hooked.
AWESOME WORK of EPICA!!!
by NuclearBlastRecords ofc!!!
Magnificent Simone, unique Epica, it's just incredible. Almost the same as Nightwish, but with new colors.
Along the way I find myself
● *kendimi bulduğum yol boyunca,*
To be confined within me
No place for any other's mind to interfere,
● *kendi benliğime hapsolabilmek için başka akıllara yer yok.*
To grasp the meaning of it all
● *tüm bunların anlamını kavramak,*
To overcome my limits
● *sınırlarımı aşmak,*
And dance away from any void and empty tones,
● *ve geçersiz ve boş safsatalardan uzakta dans edebilmek için (başkalarına yer yok.)*
Just tell me why
Just tell me how
I can survive this time
● *bana, sadece bu sefer neden ve nasıl yaşayabileceğimi söyle.*
Believe yourself and look away
From all that's right within you
● *kendine inan ve bakışlarını, kafandaki doğrulandan arındır*
Leave all your worries at the door and drift away,
● *tüm endişelerini kapıda bırak ve evden çık.*
I've tried to peer into the core
● *tamamıyla çıkmaya çalıştım*
But could not storm the sorrow
● *fakat acıya karşı esip gürleyemedim*
My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray
● *içi boş kalbim beni kuruttu, başıboş bıraktı*
Another time without a trace,
● *başka bir zaman hiç iz olmadan*
Condemn me now
● *beni suçlu çıkar*
Send me to hell
For I'm already failing
● *beni cehenneme gönder, çünkü ben şimdiden başarısızım*
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
● *karanlığın altında yüzen çizgileri birleştir*
Realize the pain we live in
● *yaşadığımız acının farkına var*
Demonize the need we reel in, no
● *bizi sersemleten ihtiyaçları şeytana çevir*
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
● *yüzyılların sonu gelmeyen hayallerini bilmek için anılarımı en derine kadar kurcalayacağım*
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
● *başka bir ben, birileri ihanete uğradığında gözyaşları döküyordu*
No time to ever go to waste
● *boşa harcamak için hiç vakit yok*
It's not that complicated
● *bu o kadar da karmaşık değil.*
You're free to live your life at ease
● *hayatını istediğin gibi yaşamakta özgürsün*
No more restrain
● *artık kendini zapt etmek yok!*
No heed for shadows on your way
That try to steal your laughter
● *senin gülüşünü çalmaya çalışan gölgelere aldırma*
Your light will drive them all away
● *senin ışığın (o gölgelerin) hepsini dağıtacak*
Be confident
● *kendine güven.*
Will I refrain?
● *kendimi durduracak mıyım?*
Can I repent?
● *pişman olabilir miyim?*
Will you be there?
● *sen orada olacak mısın?*
Erase the page
For I'm alone and ailing
● *sayfayı temizle çünkü ben yalnız ve hastayım*
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in, no
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
So, this is my life
● *sonuç olarak, bu benim hayatım*
And it can't break me down
● *ve bu hayat beni yenemez*
Go, I will decide
Who can come in and heal my disease
● *şimdi git, kimin gelip hastalığımı iyileştirebileceğine karar vereceğim*
Burn it in flames
● *onu alevler içerisinde yak*
Kill it and maim
● *öldür ve sakat bırak*
Why can't you see that you need to be freed?
● *neden özgürleşmen gerektiğini göremiyorsun?*
Intertwine the lines beneath the dark
● *karanlık içerisinde yüzen çizgileri birleştir*
Every bit of pain we're feeling
Every other solemn life, no
● *hissettiğimiz acıların her birine, diğer bütün dinsel yaşamlara hayır!"
In the memories you will find somehow
There used to be a dream unending
● *anılarını kurcaladığında göreceksin ki hâlâ sonu gelmeyen hayallerin var.*
No more need to be alone
● *artık yalnız olmana gerek yok.*
Intertwine the lines
That swim beneath the dark
Realize the pain we live in
Demonize the need we reel in, no
In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know
Centuries of dreams unending
Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed
hino!! sempre bom voltar aqui !
I cant get enough of this song!
I have to say this video is very well produced, and fits the song well
The light and dark struggle. And that BLACK GOO!!!
She's beautiful.
I totally agree with you!
She's probably a siren. You better run away before it's too late! I'm already under the spell of her voice, so it's too late for me, but it might not be too late for you!
Is it even possible for a redhead to have blue eyes? Seems extremely uncommon, they're usually green or hazel
Maarten Lauwereys I've seen images of her on her Instagram with different hair colours, I saw one of her which looked like Floor Jansen and one which she looked like Alissa White-Gluz
gofojibwas Natural redheads are almost always blue-eyed, maybe sometimes green-eyed(though I've never seen one) but NEVER brown or hazel. Goes against genetics.
This has got to be my favorite video ever.
Como eu não conhecia isso.. Fantástico..
Jean Michel A. Bom que agora conhece! 😃
muito show!!
This is the first vidio ever what i have see from Epica
