I start to here Epica in 2003 now i here Epica for over 20years years Simone came to .Epica with 17years now she is 40years old and is one of the best sopranos in Metall 🤘 🤘 🤘
🤘
one of the best performances to hear her voice. i love this band, my favourite! 🤘😎🤘
Get well soon! greetz from the Netherlands
Thank you! I enjoyed it!
Masterpiece is a great word for it. This was the second part of a one shot video. The first song was another ballad called Rivers, which Simone sang a capella with just a choir for backing.
It’s so gorgeous
Ha, it is nice to get a proof that great minds think alike! I really thought you ought to react to this very song from the moment you did the first couple EPICA pieces, since it shows so well the broad range of influences that the band incorporates into their sound. Glad Rockmagix was thinking along those lines! 🤘
This one is based of the Classical piano song by Franz Schubert, "Erlkönig". To a vivid, never-ceasing rhythm of the horse's hooves on the piano accompaniment, a father is carrying his sick child through a forest on the way to a doctor. Along the path, they are haunted from the trees by the forest spirits and seem to hear the voice of the spirit king calling out for a soul. The father manages to break out of a hallucinatory thicket into the open, with help in sight, only to find his child dead - spirited away... EPICA did a marvelous job reimagining the tale, complete with the obvious symbolism of the burning circle against the dark, and the ominous "hooves" motif. To outline Simone's wonderful control of her story-telling voice would be to state the obvious, but she really carries the song! Mesmerizing.
Do get back to the other recommendations for this talented group. 👍
Thanks so much.. yeah he’s got good taste!
Epica doing Epica things......... they never disappoint.
🤘
Great reaction to one of my favorite Epica songs. Inspired by the dark German fairytale about the Alder King or Erlking who steals the souls of children who linger to long in the woods by killing them with a single touch. The male voice here is the evil enchanter trying to lure the young traveler to his side with promises of power and tender care by his daughters. Simone has said the song is symbolic of being stuck in a life without a happy ending and how our innocence is taken away from us as soon as we are born. The studio version is slightly different with the intro using orchestral instruments as opposed to the piano and guitar here.
That’s a great description of what the song was about, I appreciate that.
it was awesome
It was!
Great, love to surprise you with my requests, I guess that is what adds the spice to this form of 'comunication' in a musical way.
Next one should not surprise you THAT much as you youself said, you wanted to see Floor rapping. Well, it might not be exactly rapping, but Floor herself mentioned that she felt like rapping when she was recording her part cause of so much text and so less time.
The legend goes, that she saw the text and asked Tuomas: Ok, when do you want me to breathe? As you have a huge list of requests I will step a little bit back and wait patiently....
Haha ahh this ought to be good!!
🤘🤘
🤘
Taylor Swift etc. are you watching?
Wait until you see Rivers from this concert!
Heck yeah!
