    Great reaction! Song is about traveling back in time to meet Mozart and tell him how amazing he is and how impactful his music will be after he dies. This is from the 25th anniversary concert for The Gathering so much older Anneke and still an incredible voice. The singers who join her on stage are all the different singers the band has had over it's existence.

    This song is such a beautiful wish to "Travel" back in time to tell Mozart his music would live forever. This is a type of trance like song.
    This was a 25th anniversary show and all of the previous singers came out for the ending.
    Melodic stanzas
    Are symphonizing their way
    Through your weary head
    To feed your distrust
    And fill it's mouth with the desire
    To soulfully be one with your creation
    Not a subject to control
    You call upon a higher power
    For help and inspiration
    The crowd waits
    And turns their faces
    Towards you expectantly
    You give them what they need
    But their useless criticism
    Makes you die
    A bit more inside
    Not a subject to control
    You call upon a higher power
    For help and inspiration
    Oh, I swoon
    While loudspeakers play soft music
    Leaning
    Over your fortieth masterpiece
    You must have loved
    The colour of these violins
    I wish I knew you
    Your fit of insanity makes me sad
    I wish you knew
    Your music was to stay forever
    And I hope
    I have no clue
    If you know how much it matters
    And I hope
    I think you would love some of the softer songs from Anneke. Like these below.

    Anneke - Queen Mom as I call her since I saw her 1st of June in Eindhoven opening the Solo show of the Queen Floor Jansen - because she blew me away. No wonder she was the inspiration for Floor to get to metal. Both ladies are simply mesmerizing and touch not only your ears but even your soul.

    Loved this first reaction of this magnificent performance of one of their best tracks guys! Also always thrilling to see people get stunned and mesmerized, or rather Annekefied, by Anneke's mesmerizing and enchanting vocal flexing and presence. Yes, the band has certainly developed over those 25 years, and this concert was a culmination and celebration of everything excellent about The Gathering and their lineups. The people who joined on stage to form the choir were all the other vocalists and instrumentalists who performed during the rest of the show, including their current singer Silje, who also does a splendid job of supporting that unique, ever developing TG sound.
    I am looking forward to see you guys check out two other landmark performances of that same show: 'On Most Surfaces' and 'Waking Hour'. Both these tracks will musically blow you away, albeit in different ways. The vocals will blow you away anyways as both showcase even more of Anneke's annique vocal abilities and melody lines. Do note that she was leading the vocal melody line and lyrical composition while the rest of the band, most notably guitarist Rene Rutten, composed the accompanying musical soundscapes, with Anneke's voice and Rene's guitar their most dominant instruments.
    Enjoy any further experiences listening to these musical gems!
    Oh, and don't forget to, at some point, sit down and relax while listening and watching their entire 2005 'A Sound Relief' concert in Paradiso, Amsterdam. You might even record your reaction to it and share it on YT. You'd have a first! :^)

    • @grungegrumpy3585
      @grungegrumpy3585 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh, and you mentioned 'mellow' ... try this:
      * Sleepy Buildings, from the 2004 semi-acoustic live album with the same name, ultimate mellow, jazzy Anneke sound: th-cam.com/video/6sfW00sf89g/w-d-xo.html
      My personal favourite feel-mellow-track. Similar feels as I get from the best tracks by bands like Talk Talk and Dead Can Dance. Oddball me?
      Note that Anneke started out as a Jazz singer, which kinda explains much of the jazzyness in abovementioned 'A Sound Relief' concert.
      And 'haunting' is also part of her and TG's musical universe:
      * Sand and Mercury, from their 1995 landmark album Mandylion, longest intro to one of the most chilling songs about dying ever, with also Jelmer's guitar play at the end adding to the haunting 'vocal' lines of the track: th-cam.com/video/QFGMroyKUKY/w-d-xo.html
      * Jelena, from their 2003 album Souvenirs, another song about dying, for a close friend of Anneke, with a stunningly fitting fanmade video: th-cam.com/video/fkriZ-NWEFs/w-d-xo.html

    Always good to see you react to good music! The people in the end were all (former) singers of The Gathering. Anneke left them long time ago to go solo, but for this 25 year anniversary, she performed once again. I think her voice is so much better than the Pinkpop performance. At that time, I think her enthusiasm and maybe her looks were the most important thing, imho, although people will disagree. She still has those, but now she also has an exceptional voice. One of the best I’d say.

    "I wish I knew you , your fit of sanity makes me sad "
    "I wish you knew your music was to stay forever "

    Oh that TG25 gig in my home town.. One legendary concert I'm still bummed abt for having missed it! For a more intimate Anneke (with great crowd interaction!), I'll copy/paste my previous comment on here with one simple addition: just do it 😁
    "Anneke.. Devin's "Tinkerbell"; Floor's inspiration as a frontlady; godmother of the smile metal genre (aka "happy metal") 😁
    Was going to see her live in Dutchieland, where she would feature as the support act (co-headliner in my book) to Floor. Got cancelled due to ... circumstances concerning Floor's health. As goes for Floor, Anneke's stage presence is of the charts and she's unmatched in spontaneous interactions with the crowd.
    Small example but well worth the view/reaction: "Time After Time - Anneke Van Giersbergen - La Scène Bastille 13/12/2012" - th-cam.com/video/ESCIutJ75kk/w-d-xo.html It has a few million views which is far too few for such a stellar performance. Enjoy & Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘"

    Just a small lesson in Dutch pronounciation. In Dutch we pronunce all letters. Half of the "e" in Dutch is the "schwa" sound (pronounced as "uh or u"). Both the "e" in Anneke are "schwa". So Anneke will be pronounced as "Annukuh"

    You need to get back to Lovebites. They released a new live video this past Saturday. Song is Hammer of Wrath (not a new song) th-cam.com/video/pHrWRT0Jeac/w-d-xo.html, live from their March 2023 show in Tokyo. The show was recorded for BR / DVD / CD which will be released next month. What's special about this live video, first live footage in 2yrs and first live video featuring new bassist Fami (recently turned 21 so is the little sister in the band)!! Such an amazing performance by all of them...and the interaction between Fami and Asami (vocals) during Fami's bass solo is so heart-melting. A total mother-daughter moment, where mom is saying "You're killing it!". Hope you will react. 😀🤘
