Hana Takashima mainstream music is the oasis. a small lilly pad of darkness upon the great lake of beautiful music that is Underground x) You have no idea how much good music there is in the world.
Man I love this band. Even with Tommy Karevik as their vocalist. The guy is talented and I do love his voice. Roy Khan had something special though. This this is one of my favorite songs.
i think he plays into it more, hard to say how because im not a singer but i believe the emotion implied more with kahn. higher highs in notes help i think
@@mastergwaha Exactly right. I call it "the thing" because I don't know what it is. Roy has this...tremble...in his voice...that I have never heard by anyone else. It communicates the most powerful feeling.
I can see where you get this. But it's not about that I believe it's more about witchcraft and how we as witches not worship the moon per say but it is a big part of our practice and when he says musconducted life I think he's talking about how witchcraft to him is that way cause he's a very big Christian man but at the same time needs guidance from Gaia or earth to help him trough the troubles of what he thinks of it all. Is what I am getting I could be totally wrong and your theory could be closer but that's what's fun about music we will always have our thoughts on what the songs means but only the artist knows the true meaning. I listen cause I love the music but also love music because there is so much mystery behind it. No I am not Cody Ellis that is my boyfriend I signed into his profile to watched TH-cam videos he had and never signed back out. I am ashley btw. Roy Kahn always had something special about his voice that video love so much I heard ghost opera on the TV while visiting my dad and kept putting it on repeat that song and his voice just sang to me. I miss so much he's no longer in the band Tommy is good but no where near the talent as Roy khan.
Seddik werT To be fair, he was supposed to be testing the waters on the last record. If you notice, he was singing in precisely the same style as Khan. Listen to him in his own band, Seventh Wonder, and *feel* the difference in his voice.
this is an underappreciated song, even among Kamelot fans. this should be easily as popular as Ghost Opera. and it deserves a video. too late for that, unfortunately.
It's one of my favourite parts of the song as well. Fans of Epica will know that it's the same melody that played in Center of the Universe, when he sings "I have a story to tell, won't you listen tonight?"
Totally forgot about Kamelot for a good 4-5 years, just started binging through their shit again rediscovering old gems I had long forgotten. It's been fun!
Agreed, I don't listen to music because it's "underground" or "mainstream" I listen to it because I like it. I don't care what people call it; I don't listen to things because I think it's cool to be different.
@@TheDrminecraftlord Normal is a concept invented to make people conform to an arbitrary standard that crushes the soul in favor of a corporate and social machine that serves, not the common good, but the benefit of our "higher ups".
I remember that this is the first kamelot song i have heard; I was immediately impressed by the music and roy's powerful voice! this song made me want to listen more and more from this band and I soon became a very big fan of them.....but it's so sad that roy has left the band....I hope that the new vocalist won't dissapoint us...
Absolutely amazing, I've heard them on Pandora before but never gave them a chance just wanted specific bands. Now I'm REALLY happy I gave them a chance.
Song that got me started with kamelot was "This Pain" and I've been a follower up until Roy left. Doesn't mean I don't like the new stuff, just not the same to me is all.
the first song I heard from kamelot was "ghost opera", back when I was just getting into metal from evanescence. I wouldn't accept anything that didn't have a female vocalist, so naturally I rejected it. then I heard "sacrimony" off their new album and was absolutely dumbstruck. I gave ghost opera another chance and it was awesome. even though tommy was the one that got me started on kamelot, I still like roy better as a vocalist. however, as a band, I think kamelot is still on the rise. I can't wait to hear what they come out with next...
A lot of music becomes mainstream because it deals entirely in surface value and conveys easily relatable things like relationships, which makes it easier for the masses to understand and enjoy without much thought or effort. And sometimes it gets mainstream because it is legitimately good.
I'd like to make one correction in the lyrics... it's not "just like you cannot compete with my pride" it's "just like you cannot compete without pride" ;)
Tommy is talentet, maybe more proper in singing... but roy was just magical and he was so true, every word he sang was totally honest and came from deep inside... hard to compete with him.
Totally agree, I listen to classical to death metal to rap to techno to dubstep. I listen to about everything besides country. People need to learn that there's more than one genre out there. Sure I prefer more hardcore music like death metal but that doesn't mean that's the only thing out there.
You're right. We should listen to what we feel like. It just seems like a bit of a shame that this sort of music doesn't have the same sort of fame as "singers" like Rihanna, Rebecca Black, or Justin Bieber, since this song alone blows most of their songs out of the water.
Yes, everyone has their own preference regardless what they listen. :P Mine is somewhere around pop and rock but as long as I like the song and the band, it doesn't matter what genre they belong to. ;D
If Mileena is the next kharacter to be redeemed this might be her theme. Especially because things might be way worse for her than the Outworld Civil War that it might require an uneasy but interesting alliance with Kitana and to an extent with Liu Kang. The tension might be as big as the Daelaam/Tal'darim alliance because others fear Mileena might be as treatcherous as the sorcerer that created her but Kitana believes that it's either this alliance or no future FOR ANY MK REALM WHATSOEVER
Music and music taste is purely subjective. If someone likes something, no matter the reason, it's their choice. While you and I might not understand why it makes a difference, someone else might find it a very important detail, the way someone might find a first edition book more valuable then re-print even though it's the same story. It's all about perception.
This isn't exactly underground......underground means not signed. Kamelot is signed, tours often, and well known in the metal community. Just because not everyone knows it doesn't make it underground.
Not going to say anything offensive here. I actually kinda like that way of thinking. You don't try to force your opinion on others and let them have their own opinion. :P The best way, better than mine. ;D
I agree. but I'm getting at peace with it. Would still love to see Roy back though. I wonder at times if he knows how much people miss him and if it would convince him to come back in one way or another. After he left I stopped listening to the newer stuff, I have the old music to listen to.
Awesome, definitely worth seeing them live if you get the chance. They have a new album out in may though I heard one of the songs because they did a world premier in London of it :P
@YaoiIsMySin You're right. No music genre is better than another. I was that kind of person a few years ago, but I changed. Music is too beautiful to hate it.
I love that their lyrics have true, powerful meanings and their not just repeating the same words over and over again. Kamelot forever!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Same dude
The songs from this band sounds like an oasis amongst today's pop music. My ears love this band
+Hana Takashima Mine, too!
Why do you compare them to pop? :v
+MultiKamil97 ...because he.s a bunghole
There are good bands out there. The radio and the average 'music fan' just has a fascination with audible manure for some reason.
Hana Takashima mainstream music is the oasis.
a small lilly pad of darkness upon the great lake of beautiful music that is Underground x)
You have no idea how much good music there is in the world.
I am a Korean who enjoys and likes heavy metal music. Of course, Kamelot is the best metal band in my life.🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Mainstream" doesn't necessarily mean "sell-out." Sometimes good bands actually get recognized for being good, not just promotional BS.
Kamelot isn't as mainstream as other bands, But yeah i know you're point.
Man I love this band. Even with Tommy Karevik as their vocalist. The guy is talented and I do love his voice. Roy Khan had something special though. This this is one of my favorite songs.

Roy is king my fav vocal ever...next with Kotipelto
"The irony of the soul, is that when you think you have become sane, you have actually gone insane." Hence why the moon is the patron of lunatics.

This is such a beautiful song, been listening for over 11 years and it hits hard still!
Just found this band but totally digging their stuff.
yeah just when they had Roy
Firas Alshalabi yea the new guy is kinda stiff to me .. roy has an awesome voice and feel :3
Seddik werT To be fair, he was supposed to be testing the waters on the last record. If you notice, he was singing in precisely the same style as Khan. Listen to him in his own band, Seventh Wonder, and *feel* the difference in his voice.
i mean his voice isn't bad .. i just got used to roy's deeper voice so don't take me so seriously.
Debra Julian on Veritas, it sounded halfway between khan and SW. I think that's the vocal route he should take, I liked it.
this is an underappreciated song, even among Kamelot fans. this should be easily as popular as Ghost Opera. and it deserves a video. too late for that, unfortunately.
03:47 - 04:03 this small section gets in my head for weeks every time I listen to this song. Such an amazing instrumental part.
It's one of my favourite parts of the song as well. Fans of Epica will know that it's the same melody that played in Center of the Universe, when he sings "I have a story to tell, won't you listen tonight?"
2:04 ....Hard to wake up with your heart and soul deep-fried....
That sounds tasty :P
That's what I thought he said at first. Not my proudest moment.
Hah
Greg Nikiforakis oh f*** now i cant unhear that - ___- haha damnit
XD
I just stumbled onto this band one day and now I can't get enough of them...a like a different sound and this is definitely different!!!
"Gaia shivers and I need your leading light"
That made me shiver. It's just so beautiful.
Totally forgot about Kamelot for a good 4-5 years, just started binging through their shit again rediscovering old gems I had long forgotten. It's been fun!
Now they got a new singer he epic

Brandon what is normal? I only know how to be different

Symphonic Metal (Especially Kamelot's) is simply amazing, magnificent
Don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet, but theres a small reprisal at 3:40
the reprisal is of Center of the Universe (a song from their prior album)
Hot DAMN you're right! Don't know why I haven't heard that before!
That's the comment I was looking for
What a composition...
Fallen love with you(the band)and the vocal is one of a few i like very much.
I remember that this is the first kamelot song i have heard; I was immediately impressed by the music and roy's powerful voice! this song made me want to listen more and more from this band and I soon became a very big fan of them.....but it's so sad that roy has left the band....I hope that the new vocalist won't dissapoint us...
YOU CUT THE SILENCE LIKE A KNIIFEEE!
I cant handle the epicness. Great song
The reason I love Kamelot is because of the lyrics but the music is awsome too. Their lyrics just seem to have meaning to me!!
Absolutely amazing, I've heard them on Pandora before but never gave them a chance just wanted specific bands. Now I'm REALLY happy I gave them a chance.

Same not the same after Roy left
God damnit. I discovered Kamelot a few days ago and now I have to listen to all their songs (from Black Halo mostly) everyday
This song always gives me goosebumps...
Also it's really cool how they switch from 4/4 to 3/4 in the kamelotty style. Even more power. Just literally epic.
Love this song! And what a beautiful picture.

0:35 that guitar drop is sick \m/
I’ve been looking for this song for actual years thank god
New favorite song
The picture is so Kamelot-like. Awesome song, awesome band.
That Backround fits perfectly with the song. I want this screensaver!!!

Perfect vocal ,love it🤘🤘
Thanks for uploading.
Hi, where are you from?
One of my Favorits Songs from Kamelot.Amazing👍
I'd like to make one correction in the lyrics... it's not "just like you cannot compete with my pride" it's "just like you cannot compete without pride" ;)
Sounds a little like Queensryche... very cool!!
Super trupa
AWESOME GREAT METALL....YOU GUYS ARE MY FAVORED
100% art with the past sound of beautiful true music .. hints of helloween and queensryche . I love it
Yes I get the queensrycge vibe too. This is ashley btw on my bf profile
Roy Khan should do a song with apocalyptica
Love this song! Great job!
Tommy is talentet, maybe more proper in singing... but roy was just magical and he was so true, every word he sang was totally honest and came from deep inside... hard to compete with him.
Reminds me of Vanden Plas.... This is good stuff. :D
kamelot, when i start singing, the emotions allways start showing themselfs. thank you for being the key to my soul!!!!
Totally agree, I listen to classical to death metal to rap to techno to dubstep. I listen to about everything besides country. People need to learn that there's more than one genre out there. Sure I prefer more hardcore music like death metal but that doesn't mean that's the only thing out there.
its a awsome pic and a REALY awsome song
ALL THUMBS UP PEOPLE
135 thumbs already
even justin beaber luves this music
HELL YHEA
I always get chills at this...
its a awsome pic and a REALY awsome song
ALL THUMBS UP PEOPLE
That riff made my beard grow at least an extra 30 centimeters...
Best thing that came out of America
I think music's not mainstream and underground. There's just music I've heard, and music I will hear one day when I find it.
eargasm
You're right. We should listen to what we feel like. It just seems like a bit of a shame that this sort of music doesn't have the same sort of fame as "singers" like Rihanna, Rebecca Black, or Justin Bieber, since this song alone blows most of their songs out of the water.

Fantastic number! If only I could get a CD containing this song, but for the life of me I can't find it.
I love this song
0:35 - the riff reminds of Rammstein - Stripped
magnifique!!!
melhor música pqp *-*
Well said. Unlike some of the hipsters on here, I'd continue to like Kamelot even if they did go mainstream.
just watch the dvd of one cold winter night concert.....they were awesome..best vocals ever..i mean ever.......
GREAT SONG!
I saw them perform this live in 2006
Soulful.
Someone just sent me a link to this song and I think it's really good :3
George Grie is the Artist. he does some stunning surrealism.
where u get that picture :o it's beuatifull ncie song :D luv it:)
metal ftw!
is it weird that i think of this band as iron maiden and symphony x's love child?
chazm00 Not even a little bit. xD
chazm00 not a bad description at all :3
Begining: meh...
End: O-O I LOVE THIS!
kamelot is awsome
I like the music your listening on this page =D
Amazing. Song very exciting

Moonlight falling over me moonlight crawling down on me

Been about 8 years since i last saw this video.
Love it!
I may like some popular things...but I don't like them because they're popular. I like it because I like it. :)
めっちゃ最高(｀・ω・´)ｷﾘｯ
I love this song♥
This isn't exactly underground......underground means not signed. Kamelot is signed, tours often, and well known in the metal community. Just because not everyone knows it doesn't make it underground.
Kaito Kid 😍^^
very good music
Not going to say anything offensive here. I actually kinda like that way of thinking. You don't try to force your opinion on others and let them have their own opinion. :P The best way, better than mine. ;D
Kamelot is nothing without Roy Khan and this playlist proves it. Judge yourselves
I agree. but I'm getting at peace with it. Would still love to see Roy back though. I wonder at times if he knows how much people miss him and if it would convince him to come back in one way or another. After he left I stopped listening to the newer stuff, I have the old music to listen to.
I'd love to see roy back i've tried to like Tommy but for me he just isn't cutting it
Trying to get into this band. Are there any other good songs by them?
stvn8or Yup! Many.
Check out Centre of the universe and the Silverthorn album! I saw them live and met them on Saturday and they are truly epic and amazing!
Funny thing is, I listened to Center of the Universe yesterday and I'm now a fan of these guys
Awesome, definitely worth seeing them live if you get the chance. They have a new album out in may though I heard one of the songs because they did a world premier in London of it :P
stvn8or Epica, the entire album
@YaoiIsMySin You're right. No music genre is better than another. I was that kind of person a few years ago, but I changed. Music is too beautiful to hate it.
