Melissa - "Aaaaaaaaaa...." Hodi - "Aaaaaaaaaa..." Beth - "Its impressive when the lady hits a high note and then the guy hits it as well!" Angus (to self) - "Just you wait sister!"
HI Beth ! I'm an old musican and what I saw was one of the greatest performance I've ever saw to cover a song of Manowar! this is so unique ! This Songcover hits the orignal ! just perfect!
Feuerschwanz is an interesting band. They started out just making fun medieval rock but then diverted to more serious medieval rock and they are really good a it.
"Hi everyone! We're Feuerschwanz, we make fun cover songs and pisstakes of folk songs!" ... 5 minutes later ... "Und darum leben wir hier Darum leben wir jetzt Memento Mori, bis der Tod die Messer wetzt!"
Hauptmann Feuerschwanz does not go high, that's Prinz Hodenherz(or Ben Metzner if you will... I always have to search up his Feuerschwanz character name).
So much to explore, just from this video. All of the singers involved, their respective bands and genres, as well as the original band. If I had to pick just one thing, please check out Saltatio Mortis for more medieval metal. Their sea shanty cover of "My mother told me" is a good follow up from this one.
Alea from Saltatio Mortis, (the bearded guy you'll never get to see next to someone else) had to do his shots somewhere else at a different time due to health issues. They did mix it in quite nicely i think.
Hans (the guitarist), Jenny (the redhaired figther in the duel, who is a harp player), Melissa and the Drummer of Amaranth, has a Band together call Dar side of the moon, they have done 3 songs so far and they are all incredibly good
I love this video ive watched it numerous times the video is amazing and all the vocals are fantastic and they even manage to fit the hurdy gurdy in too
I'm absolutely DEE-LIGHTED with Feuerschwanz! Metal has long needed bands who would take the piss, and BOY do they deliver! (I laughed my bum off at their cover of "Dragostea din tei!")
Interested to hear what I sound like? I have just realised my first cover on Spotify. Let me know what you think! open.spotify.com/track/6qfvKbg6ukHJOGykx2MARB?si=8a2fa85792b14d15
Whoa !! @2:05 ... truly, Beth Roars !! Nicely done ! This song is such fun... reminds me of gathering with my high school friends on a Friday night and convincing each other we could go 'climb that tree', or 'walk handstands across the ironwork of the highway bridge', or 'tip three cows, blindfolded' or 'tightrope-walk the concrete ledge on the fourth floor of the math building'.... no wait, that was in college... but yeah, we were invincible, back then !!
This is one of the covers that I love as much, or more, than the original. Another is Sabaton's Kingdom Come, also by ManowaR. And Melissa Bonny? Her vocals add so much to this song, and gives it that subtle vocal flavor that an epic song like this needs.
It's really nice to see that you have such fun with this band. I am looking forward to april when I'm going to see them again live. with some freinds and a lot of Beer. If you want come to switzerland in the lovley Z7.
Ey, i love this song. It is what i found them with the first time. I would love you taking a look at their "Ding" cover. Melissa is in there too, showing off xD
"Untot im Drachenboot", "Memento mori" and "Gimme, gimme, gimmer" (a hilarious ABBA-cover) by Feuerschwanz are also very good. As for epic video productions, check out "My mother told me", "The Dragonborn comes" or "Pray to the hunter", all by Saltatio Mortis (the lead singer of which was also in the video). Besides, Ben Metzner/Prinz Hodenherz has another band called D'Artagnan - they do more folk-y stuff. However, their song "C'est la vie" is very good, IMHO (I'd recommend the German version, though). Loved your reaction, btw. :)
The German version of C'est la Vie is definitely the better of the two versions, but I still can't stop myself from loving the English version as well.
Feuerschwanz is a german medival rockband most of thie songs they make are in german but they are good and worth to take a look at it. In this songs they united some leadsingers of other german medival rock bands like Alea from Saltatio Mortis and Thomas Winkler former leadsinger of Gloryhammer, the singer of the first vocal part is Ben Metzner part of Feuerschwanz and also the leadsinger of dArtagnan.
While I'm here and you're talking about mixing and matching vocals and enjoy covers I should mention Exit Eden, they do symphonic metal covers of popular songs, it features four lead singers with classical and opera training. Just pick a song, any song, you'll enjoy it.
agree, Eric is insane even today. For me he is the best, not only the screams, range etc... but I love his "color" of the voice, which I think is very important for each person individually. Like for example, my gf doesn't really like Floor in Nightwish, because she likes Tarja's "color" more. But I love Manowar (my top band with Arjen Lucassen, Snowy Shaw and Iced Earth) among plenty of others :D
I think at some point you reacted to the voice of Chino Moreno, lead singer of Deftones. But hopefully at some point you can react when he sings 'Bored' at the 1998 Bizarre Festival. Cheers, Beth. I love your videos.
@arnodobler1096 We do have a Bristol Renaissance Faire in southern Wisconsin for 2 months in summer where the cast does dress up in medieval costumes. Wouldn't miss it it's such a hoot (american slang: fun, hilarious). It includes a pub crawl which is mandatory in Wisconsin. Thank you for the recommendation. Cheers from Wisconsin/usa! 🍺
Oh - well ... a hurdy gurdy doesn't mean that it "is" celtic rock. Patty Gurdy (who does also sometimes participate at Feuerschwanz or D'Artagnan) recently mentioned (she is applying for ESC in the German "Vorentscheid"), that the hurdy gurdy is also an old German instrument ... well it's being used in the middle ages. A lot of German bands (and not only this nation) are doing music like this. If you call them "celtic" you'll get a lot of problems with their fans (Saltatio Mortis (Alea their main singer is also in this video), Subway To Sally, Faun, Schandmaul ... to name just a few of many). Ah well - if you dig in this rabbit hole ... you have really a lot to dig ... and ... maybe you have to learn German cause some of their lyrics are really interesting. And don't forget all their live-shows ...
While this is a good song, I feel the vocal qualities of Alea, the singer of Saltatio Mortis, are not put to right in this song. Like @jaega4247 commented, the song My Mother Told Me from Saltatio Mortis is a really good one, it also has this kind of warrior tone but his singing is a lot more noticable there. Also, Saltatio Mortis' rendition of The Dragonborn Comes with female vocalist Lara Loft is worth checking out. A lot of good belting in that song and nice bagpipe solo's :-).
While I admit that Manowar's constant effort to be epic makes them campy, I just love giving them a listen when I need a pick-me-up. It also impresses me that they needed more than one singer to cover Eric's range. It's an excellent cover and I liked their more tribal spin on Manowar's signature sound. Speaking of stage combat, you may have to pay a another visit to a HEMA instructor or chorographer, I certainly enjoyed your last visit on your other channel.
I think it's quite the stretch to say they NEEDED more than one singer to cover Eric's range. It's just a couple friends of the german medieval metal scene coming together, chiming in on Feuerschwanz's fun tradition of covering songs for the "b-side" of their albums.
I just gotta ask, are you in any way related to YTer and Astrophysicist Dr. Becky Smethurst? You look a lot like her, she's also a surprisingly good singer, sounds classically trained. Not subbing because of that, any reactor who knows who Melissa Bonny is gets a sub from me.
Their collective hymn was better. In the several thousand years old culture of the East, before the war, warriors used to talk to each other about their strength and kinship and the weakness of the other party. Of course, I still don't understand why the horrible appearance is interesting.
@@Danganraptor No no . Ordinary warriors chanted to each other. Here, the terrible appearance is shown, but in thousands of years ago, men were brave, superior and majestic.
@@hggj5010 If you say so. The Mongols from back then would laugh, since that's how the Samurai conducted themselves. The Mongols and Europeans believed in no such conduct.
Sorry, this version seems to me like watching a theater kinder play. Manowar only with some chains, fire and an abandoned road did a much more epic and strong song.
Eventho I really don’t like manowar or the original track. The genius about the original is it’s timing and use auf pauses. This version even takes away that… 2/10
Not really- the original was a drag, the pauses didn't really add that. This cover is not only a "who's who" of European metal, but it also conveys an epic feel fitting for a song about bringing warriors together. 10/10.
Great! I've been waiting for a reaction from Feuerschwanz here! Please, as voice coach, try Nina Hagen - Naturtränge (Rockpalst). But only the live Rockpalast version from 1979, the other ones are TV playback! Or, a little bit newer... Nina Hagen / Apocalyptica - Seemann (Rammstein Cover). Nina Hagen is (was) the (German) Queen of Punk!
Melissa Bonney has moved around quite a bit but she has a lovely, distinctive voice. She is finally getting the recognition she deserves with her current work (not this rubbish silliness)
Melissa - "Aaaaaaaaaa...."
Hodi - "Aaaaaaaaaa..."
Beth - "Its impressive when the lady hits a high note and then the guy hits it as well!"
Angus (to self) - "Just you wait sister!"
Angus really said "Hold my beer" to Ben/Hodi, lol

@@WillRobinson Some of the bandmembers make their money with very soft mediveval folk rock for the elderly.
Ok, who else was laughing out loud when she paused right before Thomas high note and talked about how high Haupman went..

I absolutely second the Saltatio Mortis request. I would also suggest their version of The Dragonborn Comes (i think that's the name)

Feuerschwanz is actually not just a cover band - they have tons of original stuff as well.
I´ve always loved the original, but this one gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

Yep, it's the German version of a Backpipe, called a Dudelsack.
With a note to your credits.

I sure hope Thomas Winkler gets with another band soon. I wish Gloryhammer hadn't imploded, he was such a good match for them.
He`s not AngusMcFive anymore, hes one better now : th-cam.com/video/i3u_JGmq5Fs/w-d-xo.html. Have fun

Oh Melissa can growl. There is a cover she did with Rage of Light. Rage of Light - Twilight of the thunder god (Amon Amarth cover)
I really dig that Celtic sound.
It's always fun and interesting watching your reactions. I recommend a swedish group. Nordman. "Vandraren". A mix between rock and swedish folk music.
Great to see Manowar getting recognition, Eric Adams is one of the greatest metal singers of all time.
agree, Eric is insane even today. For me he is the best, not only the screams, range etc... but I love his "color" of the voice, which I think is very important for each person individually. Like for example, my gf doesn't really like Floor in Nightwish, because she likes Tarja's "color" more.

Yeah right, tight spandex helps him a lot...scream of squeezing balls
Such an awesome band, been a fan for about a year, check out Hanz and Melissa in their other band The Dark of the Moon,
I'd recommend checking out Saltatio Mortis! They're one of my favorite bands.^^
I think at some point you reacted to the voice of Chino Moreno, lead singer of Deftones. But hopefully at some point you can react when he sings 'Bored' at the 1998 Bizarre Festival.
Cheers, Beth. I love your videos.
Check out their cover of Ding. Melissa does some harsh vocals in it
Would love to see a reaction to Master of the Universe by Angus McSix (new band of ex-Gloryhammer singer).
Thats btw almost the who is who of the german medieval Rock scene
You rock
I love how they have Angus McFife join for their video
this is fantastiiiiiiic....
You're the Bethst. ❤️
Maybe you could do this one, great band, great singer. Iced Earth - Travel In Stygian Live (Metal Camp Open Air 2008)
Lol, since you liked the high voice. you should check out angus mcfive (now angus mcsix) former gloryhammer singer :D
I was expecting Melissa Bonny to throw a curveball with her vocal range a la Warkings collaborations
Beth is a metal head. Certain of it. Though if she'll ever react to a song by Cradle of Filth or Steel Panther remains to be seen!
Never heard of this group...will have to Google and learn more. Personally I like the wardrobe set...reminds me of Braveheart. Guess that dates me.
Feuerschwanz, Saltatio Mortis and Darkside of the Moon are worth checking out
and Angus McSix too!:) @@carligula78
