I never did like metal ( actually, never listened to any) until you started to feature these unbelievably remarkable live metal performances. What an amazing live concert where the lead singer with his fabulous vocal range ( from low to high!) backed by the mind -shattering instrumentals took me on an emotionally impactful journey to another realm. Transported me to the church of metal ecstasy! I now have a great appreciation for these heavy metal anthems, thanks to you, Beth , featuring them. And your “right on” analysis enhances my enjoyment. Wow! Never thought I’d ever say I love heavy metal. Well, I just said it!
@al fogel If you wouldn't mind a suggestion, this is hands down one of the greatest live metal shows ever recorded : th-cam.com/video/LIFZUPl6V0c/w-d-xo.html Everyone in their prime at that stage and I get shivers every time at the beginning ... what a blast ! If you want something lighter I'd strongly suggest you look in to a project named "Ayreon" ... amazing singers and musicians participate in it ... enjoy :D
Power metal in general is really theatrical and trap you into amazing stories and differents feelings in the same song . These vocalist(also the musicians) are often from classical or opera background. Of course it can be intense but never aggressive .The musicianship is also a big part of the soul of this genre of music .
Welcome to the world of metal! It’s the most diverse genre of music. There’s always a metal sub genre that resonates for everyone. Just gotta find which one.
Guitar noodle : thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I’m 72 years old and most of my cronies think metal is anathema. But I’ve been enjoying bands like Nightwish, etc where the lead vocalists ( male or female) are powerful and the songs are more spiritual-emphasizing the celestial and not the gross mundane. But that’s just me. Even k-pop like EXO are so remarkable. Thanks to Beth, and suggestions from subscribers like yourself I’m enjoying Metal . Thanks again and if you know of any bands/songs that you think I would enjoy, please let me know. Love from Florida, Al
One of my favorite singers! Roy sounds so emotional, he plays with tones and dinamics in such an unic way! He has a level of control of his own voice that is so hard to get! Genious!
Oh my God Khan (the singer) is the whole reason I ever wanted to learn how to sing. He has such magic in his voice, THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing this video!!!
This is all Khan and he has one of the purest tones ever. No autotune for him ever! I've seen Kamelot several times and have seen him with Conception. He is a class act and one of the nicest guys I've met.
Roy Khan actually studied opera in Norway, before he became a metal singer. I think it shows in his technique in places - and he has a tremendous presence on stage, very theatrical. He as a vocal range of 5 octaves, too.
Does he still have 5 octaves? His voice has aged, it seemed like he had a completely different tone in Ghost Opera and Poetry for the Poisoned than he did in the days of Karma. I'm not sure he can still maintain that range.
Roy Khan. What a BEAST he was/is. This dvd, which I have, is one of the best live dvd:s ever ! I was fortunate to see Kamelot LIVE with Roy a couple of times here in Finland. Great concerts, lovely memories !!!
On March of Mephisto Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir had guest vocals. Thus I'd actually like to see her look into the studio version (I don't think he ever performed with them live) and see what she thinks of him :D
People always say about auto-tune etc. Auto-tune cannot make your voice sound right, auto-tune, it's just an effect, a crappy one...! It works very different. There are other softwares that make you ''sing better'' such as melodyne etc. In these editing - production softwares, if you use these tools-plug-ins (others for harmonies, others for choirs, others to correct instrument players that are not singers but did a backing vocal segment, others to correct a lead vocalist line etc) you can hear when a voice has been corrected - edited in these kind of softwares. Also, you can hear better the effects if you use them...Roy Khan is one of the most ON POINT vocalists ever, to close my comment, he is just using a chorus effect, a bit of reverb/delay, compression and dynamics on this dvd. We must not forget that this is from official dvd material. For those who don't know how a chorus effect works...A chorus effect sometimes (depends on the amount) can make your voice a slight double ''out'' of pitch upper or down, or even both at the same time from the original pitch.
Like people have already talked about - Kamelot and Epica are two very close bands. Epica got their name from an album by Kamelot, the keyboardist of Kamelot is married to Simone from Epica and she has also sung on a couple Kamelot tracks and Roy has sung on an Epica track. 😊
The band is Conception and they’re not new. They put out four albums in the 90s and reformed with the same line-up in 2018. So far, they’ve released the 6-song EP, my Dark Symphony and the full-length, State of Deception.
I miss Roy Khan. I love Tommy and look forward to seeing Kamelot this Thursday (Sept. 19). He is doing a fine job. I was lucky to see Kamelot with Epica in either 2006 or 2007. I had just started listening to Epica and had no idea who Kamelot was. What I took notice to was the passion in Roy's voice and the way he moved when he sang. I looked at my friends saying "Why haven't I heard of these guys?"Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment on what you are experiencing for the first time. Nice to hear what a vocal coach has to say.
I was going to ask you to review this concert, but somebody else did... Good! Roy Khan is back! I love his singing! He is one of the Best if not the best metal singer in contemporary music! And I personally love this concert. 🙌🏼
Kamelot is one of my absolute favorite bands. I'd love to hear your analysis of their current singer, Tommy Karevik, particularly how he changes his style to fit with Kamelot, as well as his other band, Seventh Wonder.
The great metal singers don't cheat with autotune and Khan is a great metal singer. He is well educated, which is normal when you're singing power/symphonic metal. He is the most intense singer I've ever seen on a stage. He is meant to be experienced live. Thank you for a good video.
When my brother introduced me to Kamelot 10 years ago, he showed me Forever, I thought in the beggining of the song there were 2 singers because of how different the sound/tone? was, almost thought it was a woman singing the second verse. Khan has been one of my favorite singers since then.
I really do like your reactions! They‘ve got way more interest into the music you listen to than others Reacters do. And also your ability to listen to the full song, concentrating on the vocals but also recognizing the instrumentals just makes it a very nice experience to listen to a professional singer rating/moderating while your feelings doing these videos just give such a impressive chill! Meanwhile Roy Khan (Ex-Singer of Kamelot as you can see him singing on the video) has sadly left the band for personal and health reasons. Some years later, after his disappearment he cam back with one his very first Band called Conception. They‘ve already released their coming back Album called „my dark symphony“ I would lovely see your reaction on some songs from that album - such as „Quite Alright“ or „My Dark Symphony“ the self-titled Song. Maybe a comparissing of both bands - focused on roy‘s voice - could be very interesting! Have good time and keep up the great work
You just listened to arguably the most dynamic and beautiful voices God has ever graced us with. There is so much more. I recommend you listen to more of this singer. I promise you will not regret it. Peace
YES KAMELOT, Roy Khan is such a beautiful singer. He left the metal scene to become a youth pastor in Norway, and has recently stated he's returning to singing but we don't know yet what he's going to do. The female singer in this is Simone Simons from Epica, you can hear both of them on the Kamelot song "The Haunting". Notable other songs to listen to Roy's angelic voice: Forever, Memento Mori, Elizabeth (all three parts), uhhh pretty much every single song from Karma, Epica (the album by Kamelot), and The Black Halo.
I'm a big fan of rock and metal and Kamelot has been one of my favorite bands for a long time. For those who are new to this kind of music, there's a lot of beauty on it. It's not always about the growls or screams or the loud sounds. You can really find beautiful music here. And that being said I started to hear other genres as well and I notice I was missing so much for just focus on metal. That's the beauty of music. You can appreciate a lot if you want to. Thanks for your analysis and reaction to Roy Khan ❤
Awesome. I never thought I would get to see such a thorough analysis of Khan's singing! It's just amazing that this is now a thing. A side-note, the two songs on here are both from the album The Black Halo which is the second of two concept albums that tell one story, which explains the theatrical approach. By the time of Abandoned, the protagonist has gone through heavy stuff for over an hour worth of music. That further adds to his delivery of that particular song.
Yes, and they toured a lot together - thus it makes sense for Kamelot to have parts for Simone to sing. (There is a greater than zero chance I was at this concert. Though they altered between this venue - Rockefeller - and the somewhat larger Sentrum Scene when they visited Oslo.)
Hello Beth! i swear , you get more lovely every time i see you with a new reaction. you know Roy had one of the most iconic voices in metal. Kamelot's current singer Tom Karevik is likewise very vocally gifted and sounds much like Roy. This song is one of their most touching. i am a former army ranger and had never shed a tear until i started listening to Kamelot and Epica's Simone particularly her most exquisite creation "the canvass of life."
Algorithm suggested your channel and I don't regret clicking. I get to listen to amazing music while learning from your amazing critique. As for the video, Khan has the voice of a god, with so much emotion. He's so missed.
It really brings a smile to my face each time people bring up auto-tune with roy khan's voice, it just goes to show how much he has perfected his voice. Especially when voice teachers bring it up too! Years and years of practice, each and every single day; nothing more, nothing less.
@@kaywabindato167 Yes, he did. Epica was released in 2003 and Roy didn't leave the band until 2011. I actually saw them live on that tour, and Roy was amazing. Check this (sadly low-res) video: th-cam.com/video/GOVW9GezQ0k/w-d-xo.html
Yes! Kamelot with Roy Khan! Nothing like it. My favourite band and vocalist of all time, too bad he left the band, but it was probably for the best as he was being burned out and his voice was deteriorating. thanks for this, two songs too(the second being When the Lights are Down)
Love roy khan... He is back with Conception guys Those feelings. Ive listened metal for long time. And what Roy brings to the table is on another whole level
It's definitely not auto-tuned. Roy Khan is just that good. He's a Norwegian singer and the former vocalist of Kamelot. The current singer is Tommy Karevik, who is Swedish. The band itself is actually from Tampa, Florida in the USA though.
Would really appreciate if you could react to Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down. Ayreon is a music project by a VERY talented composer who invites the best the metal scene has to offer to perform on his conceptual albums. This specific song has 11 different vocalists participating and all of them are world class, some of whom you have already reacted to before, including Tommy Karevik from Kamelot. Oh, and Roy Khan (the vocalist in this video) is one of the best metal vocalists in the scene right now. Awesome technique, vocal range, style and tone.
Roy Khan still sings in church too. Someone told him he "looked like Roy Khan"... Oops! He was really nice about it and just said "I am Roy Khan!"..... Tommy Karevik sings with Kamelot now and is really worth listening to. "In Twilight Hours" or "Under Grey Skies"? I like that you let the guitar and keyboard solos play through! Useful reaction and analysis, as usual!! Thanks!
Finally someone did it, with Roy Khan being such an awesome singer I was wondering why none of the vocal coaches had done a reaction for Kamelot or any of the bands he has singed for. This is quite an old show, he's now singing again for Conception, hey released an EP last December and it's awesome, I would really recommend you look into it
You should also react to the new singer for Kamelot, Tommy Karevik. He is also in the band Seventh Wonder, where I think he sounds more like himself (in Kamelot, he tries to be a bit more Roy Khan-sounding).
Hi Beth .Great reaction to Kamelot - Abandoned (live) Roy Khan is a great singer . Your in your best color Green goes well with your your hair color and eyes .
This is probably my favorite Kamalot song. Incredible, emotional vocals. Just perfect. Brings tears to my eyes every time. Yeah, I'm Mr. Extreme Brutal Metalhead bawling my eyes out like a baby during this song.
Did not expect to see this in my timeline, but was gladly surprised! Kamelot was my favorite band during my teenage years, and I was said to see Roy Khan leave the group. This video just reaffirms why they held that spot for such a long time in the first place, great music with an amazingly cappable and passionate vocalist.
Yesssssss. I love she's checking out Roy Khan since he's back. You know their good when there's detail in the diction and technique. He was opera trained. She should look at the song Elisabeth and memento mori next since it's one of his more technical performances.
Messiah Marcolin For the WIN ! ... and "under the oak" is a far better choice :) here : th-cam.com/video/LIFZUPl6V0c/w-d-xo.html what a range, what power rocking the place *high* and *low* ... I really hope she'd choose to present that song in her channel one day ...
What a blasphemy, Roy Khan never uses Auto-tune. Auto-tune uses Roy Khan!
Yap, funny
you sir, go up! fucking right
Haha yep! I've seen him live and he sounds every bit as amazing and smooth as this DVD clip
Best comment of the day.
Agreed, Roy Khan is too perfect. God I miss this man.
Roy Khan is so good that people thinks its Auto Tune xD hahahahaa
Im sorry to tell you bud, but litterly every singer now days use some form of auto tuning. Roy isnt any different.

Roy Khan is my all time favorite singer, I love that you reacted to him!
Roy is widely considered one of the best and strongest male singers in the symphonic metal genre. A great stage presence and voice!
*The* best. In that specific of a genre, no doubt.
Oooooh, we get a bonus track! "When the Lights are Down" is classic Kamelot :D
It's my absolute favorite!
This is all Khan and he has one of the purest tones ever. No autotune for him ever! I've seen Kamelot several times and have seen him with Conception. He is a class act and one of the nicest guys I've met.
actually he uses some autotune and vocal effects in the Conception album "Flow". They're for effect, of course, not to "fix" his vocals.
I love you for reacting to this, Roy Khan is a total boss
My favorite singer of all time. Beth, don’t know how you came across Roy Khan, but what a treat.

God i loved your reaction!! Roy Khan is also known in the metal world as The Voice of God. Please do more!

Excellent video Beth. Roy is an amazing singer and Kamelot for sure a fantastic band!
Sooo so so so happy you did this song.... Its a song that's really helped me when I was suffering through depression.... Miss Roy so much.....
Roy is one of my favorite singers/vocalists of all time. He's soooooo good.
I sugested you listen to Kamelot's songs Forever, The Haunting (with Simone Simons), and March of Mephisto. All amazing songs and vocals
Also Memento Mori live in Belgrade! Love that one.
@@lolomghello Me too!
The Elizabeth trilogy from this concert is a absolute must!!
The Haunting with Simone is amazing, she needs to do the live duet version of it though.
On March of Mephisto Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir had guest vocals. Thus I'd actually like to see her look into the studio version (I don't think he ever performed with them live) and see what she thinks of him :D

What a fantastic voice!
Abandoned is one of the most exquisite metal ballads. glad to see it is appreciated by others .
Absolutely love seeing you react to Roy Khan; he's easily one of my favorite vocalists. Thanks for the amazing content.

Yes, yes, yes! You've just made my day!
wrong, he and Roy wrote 99% of kamelot music.
Oh god, Abandoned is one of my favourite songs! Love Kamelot!!! I almost cried while listening to Abandoned here...ugh, that song. 😥
I love his tone and the incredible control he has over his voice! Powerful!
One of my favorite all-time singers. Certainly one of the most emotive singers I've heard.

I want her to see how Tommy uses both his voice and body to tell the story so gracefully

Thank you for a good video.
I could watch Beth all day. I love her enthusiasm and knowledge. And she looks lovely !!
Roy Khan is a beast. It was a hearbreaking moment when he step aside from the band due to health problems :'(. Also, this concert is amazing.
When my brother introduced me to Kamelot 10 years ago, he showed me Forever, I thought in the beggining of the song there were 2 singers because of how different the sound/tone? was, almost thought it was a woman singing the second verse. Khan has been one of my favorite singers since then.
I really do like your reactions! They‘ve got way more interest into the music you listen to than others Reacters do. And also your ability to listen to the full song, concentrating on the vocals but also recognizing the instrumentals just makes it a very nice experience to listen to a professional singer rating/moderating while your feelings doing these videos just give such a impressive
chill! Meanwhile Roy Khan (Ex-Singer of Kamelot as you can see him singing on the video) has sadly left the band for personal and health reasons.
Some years later, after his disappearment he cam back with one his very first Band called Conception. They‘ve already released their coming back Album called „my dark symphony“ I
would lovely see your reaction on some songs from that album - such as „Quite Alright“ or „My Dark Symphony“ the self-titled Song. Maybe a comparissing of both bands - focused on roy‘s voice - could be very interesting! Have good time and keep up the great work
You just listened to arguably the most dynamic and beautiful voices God has ever graced us with. There is so much more. I recommend you listen to more of this singer. I promise you will not regret it. Peace
Oh hey, It's my buddy Roy. We attend the same church (that's where we met 5 or so years ago anyway) Nice guy and great singer :)
You are blessed to know this man in person. I'm glad to see that he is back to singing again. :)

Algorithm suggested your channel and I don't regret clicking. I get to listen to amazing music while learning from your amazing critique. As for the video, Khan has the voice of a god, with so much emotion. He's so missed.
It really brings a smile to my face each time people bring up auto-tune with roy khan's voice, it just goes to show how much he has perfected his voice. Especially when voice teachers bring it up too! Years and years of practice, each and every single day; nothing more, nothing less.
This and Karma on the DVD are.. Insane, just goosebumps all the way.
This was great.
For more Roy Khan-era Kamelot, you could react to "Karma" or "Center of the Universe". Amazing songs.
Arcane Glimmer Karma from this show is just magic. Good call!
Roy didn't sing Center of the Universe
@@kaywabindato167 Yes, he did.
Epica was released in 2003 and Roy didn't leave the band until 2011. I actually saw them live on that tour, and Roy was amazing. Check this (sadly low-res) video: th-cam.com/video/GOVW9GezQ0k/w-d-xo.html
@@kaywabindato167 lol
Yes! Kamelot with Roy Khan! Nothing like it. My favourite band and vocalist of all time, too bad he left the band, but it was probably for the best as he was being burned out and his voice was deteriorating. thanks for this, two songs too(the second being When the Lights are Down)
He wasn't well and decided it wasn't fair to put Kamelot on hold for him. True gentleman and professional
I have good news. Hes back, check out for all and Conception a smaller band hes singing for now
I love this dude! Really interesting to hear about some of his technique!
Kamelot has always been my favorite. Roy is the best ❤
Love roy khan... He is back with Conception guys
Those feelings. Ive listened metal for long time. And what Roy brings to the table is on another whole level
In the same concert his best songs are Elizabeth and edge Of Paradise, he is one Of the most beautiful voices in the world.
Ooooooo a 2 for 1! His voice is so good. Hubbers wants to go to their next show in our area. My training is working, bwahahaha you are awesome, Beth!!
It's definitely not auto-tuned. Roy Khan is just that good. He's a Norwegian singer and the former vocalist of Kamelot. The current singer is Tommy Karevik, who is Swedish. The band itself is actually from Tampa, Florida in the USA though.
Love your analysis of Kamelot! One of my all time favorite bands!
Would really appreciate if you could react to Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down. Ayreon is a music project by a VERY talented composer who invites the best the metal scene has to offer to perform on his conceptual albums. This specific song has 11 different vocalists participating and all of them are world class, some of whom you have already reacted to before, including Tommy Karevik from Kamelot.
Oh, and Roy Khan (the vocalist in this video) is one of the best metal vocalists in the scene right now. Awesome technique, vocal range, style and tone.
where is the video of her reacting to tommy karevik from kamelot? cant find it anywhere :(
This guy is simply unbelievable live, his voice and expression, so unique. He is (and will be) one of the best of all time.
It is very sad for Roy Khan to leave the stage. He's a phenomenal singer. Your voice is very unique. I'm very sad.
Roy is back!
Kamelot - Elizabeth, is a masterpiece
Roy Khan still sings in church too. Someone told him he "looked like Roy Khan"... Oops! He was really nice about it and just said "I am Roy Khan!"..... Tommy Karevik sings with Kamelot now and is really worth listening to. "In Twilight Hours" or "Under Grey Skies"? I like that you let the guitar and keyboard solos play through! Useful reaction and analysis, as usual!! Thanks!
people need to study the passion and beauty within Roy Khan's voice
and its not auto-tune
Finally someone did it, with Roy Khan being such an awesome singer I was wondering why none of the vocal coaches had done a reaction for Kamelot or any of the bands he has singed for. This is quite an old show, he's now singing again for Conception, hey released an EP last December and it's awesome, I would really recommend you look into it
I'm glad professional and qualified people recognize Roy's talent and put words to it because he is so much underated. 🙏🙏
If you want to listen to Roy's voice in all its glory then you really need to check out Elizabeth from this same concert.
In the song Forever, from the same live, he do a little game with the crowd, and the way he do it is just amazing
Finally! Always wanted to see a reaction to Roy
My favorite songs by Kamelot are Wander and this song. Def give Wander a listen!
He has a great stage presence too, one of the greatest in the symphonic metal.
You should also react to the new singer for Kamelot, Tommy Karevik. He is also in the band Seventh Wonder, where I think he sounds more like himself (in Kamelot, he tries to be a bit more Roy Khan-sounding).
A react to Welcome to Mercy Falls would be badass.
@@bievvin Break the Silence for sure. Best vocal on the album I think. Also...Hey Jay!
Seventh wonder is definitely my favorite band ! The song Move on Through give me goosebumps evrytime !
Tears for a father by Seventh Wonder is so damn good..
Hi Beth .Great reaction to Kamelot - Abandoned (live) Roy Khan is a great singer . Your in your best color Green goes well with your your hair color and eyes .
A suprise extra 1 of my all time favourite when the lights go down. Brilliant performance that whole show 🤘🤘
This is probably my favorite Kamalot song. Incredible, emotional vocals. Just perfect. Brings tears to my eyes every time. Yeah, I'm Mr. Extreme Brutal Metalhead bawling my eyes out like a baby during this song.
You’re not alone, bud! 🤘🏼😆
Did not expect to see this in my timeline, but was gladly surprised! Kamelot was my favorite band during my teenage years, and I was said to see Roy Khan leave the group. This video just reaffirms why they held that spot for such a long time in the first place, great music with an amazingly cappable and passionate vocalist.
Great video as always, and extra great with the bonus. Was nice for you to hear and react to an uptempo song and not just a ballad
Love learning from you. Thanks.
Roy Khan I love him, thank you
ok, NOW is time to react to Sir Russel Allen!
Yes plz, so much YES
And also Jorn Lande. Dude got pipes, but his music videos are awful lol
Yes!!!
It would be great. The problem is I can't find a good quality live video
Yes! So much this!
Yesssssss. I love she's checking out Roy Khan since he's back. You know their good when there's detail in the diction and technique. He was opera trained. She should look at the song Elisabeth and memento mori next since it's one of his more technical performances.
Very nice reactions! What I love most about this concert is that the song right before Abandoned (Nights of Arabia) is rather high
CANDLEMASS - THE WELL OF SOULS!
Messiah Marcolin For the WIN ! ... and "under the oak" is a far better choice :) here : th-cam.com/video/LIFZUPl6V0c/w-d-xo.html
what a range, what power rocking the place *high* and *low* ... I really hope she'd choose to present that song in her channel one day ...
I love Roy Khan's vioces!!! Amazing react Beth, I love it!!!
Queensryche - Queen of The Reich Live Tokyo, Japan 1984
