Why are so many people commenting on her age? Why the fuck does that matter so much to you??? Wtf is it with the metal community refusing to allow any women in metal show natural aging or physical imperfection?? I never see or hear anyone complaining about how old, or fat, or balding any of the male members in a band look, but god forbid a female musician in this scene not be a perfect, ageless 10/10, right? The guys can step on stage looking like they just rolled out of bed in their favorite faded tshirt and jeans, because all that matters is how good they sound. Not the female singer, though. No, she's got to look young, have great hair, be thin, but make sure she's not TOO thin, put on a bunch of makeup, perform in a corset, heels, and huge dress. If the only thing you had to post under this video consisted of an attack on the appearance of this very gifted and skillful vocalist, you need to stfu and try to listen with your damn ears instead of your eyes. Keep that rude shit to yourselves, and if you care more about looks than musical ability and talent, take your ass over to a Katy Perry or Taylor Swift concert and stay there. Damn, some of your parents sure did a great job making sure their kids didn't grow up to be shallow, ignorant douche bags.
You're ignoring the fact that female fronted bands (which otherwise have all male members) exist purely because they're using a beautiful young woman as the lead to sell albums. That's the whole point of doing it in the first place. That's why this type of band is so much more popular than all male bands. Both men and women like to look at beautiful young women in pretty clothes. You're also ignoring the fact that fewer women enjoy this type of music, and that women in general want to be the center of attention because it makes us feel attractive. That's why you don't see bands with a mix of male and female instrumentals. There is very rarely one single female instrumentalist in a band, and if that band also has a female singer, the female instrumentalist eventually leaves (e.g. Leaves' Eyes 2007-2010). Otherwise, the lone female instrumentalist is also the lead singer at the same time. But, for both of these reasons the whole system works out in favor of both the male bands that want to make more money, and the relatively few female metal fans who want to be the center of attention in a band. Again, part of the reason they are so popular. All that being said, it's bands like this one that are in it for the music more than the money because they're not playing that game (as much...the other female pirates in this video are of course young and beautiful). It's perfectly fine to have an older woman as a vocalist, and this lady is certainly a good one. But they will be criticized for it, it's just human nature. They will at least have some true fans who appreciate the music though. Or perhaps none of that matters to them and they're just having a good time. TL;DR People will act the way they have always acted, according to their biology which drives them to favor young women. If you like the music, you'll just have to deal with it.
Long long ago shiploads of golden arrows Everything was ready for the war White linen sails, the laughter on the deck The black doves aboard Dressed up as pirates women took their places They were young and they were beautiful Daggers and garters, cannon of pure grace Prepare! Seize arms! Get ready, they're coming! Sea! Give us your strength, lead the way Moon! Give us your light, show us the way Wind! Give us hope when the time comes Home! Give us the reason to fight We're fighters, we're reckless Hey ho! We're all so fearless We're after fame and gloria We're drinking, we're tempting Hey ho! We're singing We are enchanting warriors! In the end you will all surrender! The banner of black doves is feared across the seas Women so graceful, silk and armony Eyes on the horizon, minds of the coming fight Again they shall prevail The line of rifles and scent of powder Ruthless and wild that's the way they are Sweet victory it is their only aim Again! Seize arms! Get ready, they're coming Sea! Give us your strength, lead the way Moon! Give us your light, show us the way Wind! Give us hope when the time comes Home! Give us the reason to fight We're fighters, we're reckless Hey ho! We're all so fearless We're after fame and gloria We're drinking, we're tempting Hey ho! We're singing We are enchanting warriors! In the end you will all surrender!
Capri is the best thing that has ever happened with Amberian Dawn. Such powerful vocals, it makes literally ALL of the songs sang by her jam packed with emotions! oh and she can go classical too. listen to the new River of Tuoni sang by Capri
Amazing singer !! Fama y gloria genial canción, y su vocalista además de hermosa canta espectacular !! Su voz es clara potente y melódica digna del power metal !!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this song and the whole album! I've been listening to it almost every day since it came out. Capri is a great singer, and she has a very nice and original voice :-)
A saída da Heidi Parviainen dessa banda foi muito bom para nós! Ela.montou o espetacular Dark Sarah e hoje temos a Capri no Amberian Dawn, que cantora incrível é a Capri.
Heidi is a great singer,great techinque but too cold hearted. Capri was the best choice for this band.She sings with her soul and gives the band the POWER to their metal. Capri rocks! never leave!!
I love this song so much! It really is empowering and inspiring. I especially love that they chose to have the crew made up of women. There were female pirates in history but they aren't given enough credit.
I wanted this new album in general to be more symphonic, but, one cannot have it all, alas. Capri SLAYS, as expected. The video is nice, and so is the song. One can hardly wait to, hopefully, have the new album on repeat for days!

Вроде бабушка поёт. Но побеждает музыка, и я её люблю, эту бабулю. Она прекрасно ремиксила все песни, вселила новую жизнь в них. Замечательная энергетика в её голосе. В последнем альбоме я вообще ABBA наблюдал, очень приятно
Am i the only one that feels the age in her voice adds more than it takes away? I am enchanted!
Why are so many people commenting on her age? Why the fuck does that matter so much to you???

I know!!! BTW, how can anyone notice her age with that CGI right there?
Word!

+rosethorn0232 I thought the whole point was to make great music?
this is the most sexist bull shit I've ever read holy SHIT. it's laughable.
Amaaaaazing!
Capri was born to sing power metal ♥
Heidi
Her voice is so clear, clean and crisp.
Her voice = Sprite
Capri is incredible! I love her, she is a goddess! I love this song and would give almost anything to see them live. Please come to the United States.
This song is criminally underrated WTF?
One of my fav singers and a bad ass song! Sad that this band is so underrated.
the awkward lyrics are the "under" in "underrated to be honest
Fun video, awesome music. After watching this does anyone else kind of want to see a movie about a Women's Pirate Crew?
Only if it's done right, a la Wonder Woman, not the Ghostbusters reboot
There are giant musicians on the deck captain!
Long long ago shiploads of golden arrows
Everything was ready for the war
White linen sails, the laughter on the deck
The black doves aboard
Dressed up as pirates women took their places
They were young and they were beautiful
Daggers and garters, cannon of pure grace
Prepare! Seize arms!
Get ready, they're coming!
Sea!
Give us your strength, lead the way
Moon!
Give us your light, show us the way
Wind!
Give us hope when the time comes
Home!
Give us the reason to fight
We're fighters, we're reckless
Hey ho!
We're all so fearless
We're after fame and gloria
We're drinking, we're tempting
Hey ho!
We're singing
We are enchanting warriors!
In the end you will all surrender!
The banner of black doves is feared across the seas
Women so graceful, silk and armony
Eyes on the horizon, minds of the coming fight
Again they shall prevail
The line of rifles and scent of powder
Ruthless and wild that's the way they are
Sweet victory it is their only aim
Again! Seize arms!
Get ready, they're coming
Sea!
Give us your strength, lead the way
Moon!
Give us your light, show us the way
Wind!
Give us hope when the time comes
Home!
Give us the reason to fight
We're fighters, we're reckless
Hey ho!
We're all so fearless
We're after fame and gloria
We're drinking, we're tempting
Hey ho!
We're singing
We are enchanting warriors!
In the end you will all surrender!
This is awesome as fuck. Cant believe how they're not more popular
It's a real master piece, what ever by AD. Great, it burns in the head, in german an "Ohrwurm".
This song is absolutely amazing!
Capri is so fantastic. Every Song is so amazing and powerfull ❤
SLAY, Capri, SLAY. That was amazing.
+prince0frosesvid I'd Slay her...
Tuomas looks like just another band member but he is the headmaster of all of it, I really love this guy
Wouuuu con Capri pedal a fondo!!! Saludos de Argentina!
Capri is the best thing that has ever happened with Amberian Dawn. Such powerful vocals, it makes literally ALL of the songs sang by her jam packed with emotions!

What a great voice. Sounds so professional. I can actually understand the lyrics.
This is the best album I've heard in years! The lead vocals are awesome. PLEASE keep up the good work.
Damn this song is so catchy. I've been stuck on this band for a while now, hoping they tear through USA!!
Fell in love with this song when I heard the first 3 chords or so. Wow. 😍😍

Capri is the most badass female vocalist in power metal.
После Найтвиш с Тарьей эта группа довела до "мурашек"!!!!!
Hurt me right in the feels. I've been mentally abuse by a toxic "boyfriend", this song gave me powerfull vibes 💪🏻
Love this song so much.
I love this song and the whole album! I've been listening to it almost every day since it came out. Capri is a great singer, and she has a very nice and original voice :-)
Happy birthday Päivi!😊
A saída da Heidi Parviainen dessa banda foi muito bom para nós! Ela.montou o espetacular Dark Sarah e hoje temos a Capri no Amberian Dawn, que cantora incrível é a Capri.
The video may not be the best, but damn... The song!
Wooooohoooooooo Woop Woop Amberian Dawn!! \m/

one of the best metal songs in 2015
tremenda voz !!! excelente banda !!!
Great!!!!! I love Capri!!!!!
The new singer is amazing! Lovely and powerful voice she is perfect for the bad. lml ♥
Yes she is 'bad'
Is she really that bad ? She sounds so fierce to me and I really like fierce female singers.
+Mitsa Kiv she meant to say band. but if she did meant bad, maybe she meant Capri is a badass XD. Which she amazingly is in this music video
Wow, it's so amazing! I love the idea of the video, the song & the vocalist too! This band is a jevel, and i love them already.
This song is actually pretty amazing. It deserves more views! :D
Great new symphonic metal song. fresh and good!
They have the creative skills of YES & ELP combined, I am looking for a Bluray of their visual skills. One word to describe WOW.
The guitar solo kills \m/
innuendo is a masterpiece! was there in biebob in Belgium and amberian Dawn had been great! Nice band! keep up the good work Amberian Dawn!!! \m/
I love this song so much! It really is empowering and inspiring. I especially love that they chose to have the crew made up of women. There were female pirates in history but they aren't given enough credit.
Oh my god! This is amazing! Vocals are beautiful!
Capri fits so much better
I really love this band, they Rock!!!
Why all the hate on her looks? Anyway it's the voice is what matters and hers is amazing
I feel like I will never be able to listen to another song again *¬*
this song is great, and Capri is a goddess ¡¡¡ Love this band, I can't say less.
I wanted this new album in general to be more symphonic, but, one cannot have it all, alas. Capri SLAYS, as expected. The video is nice, and so is the song. One can hardly wait to, hopefully, have the new album on repeat for days!
Remek, akárcsak a The Court Of Mirror Hall dal!
Várom a teljes lemezt, hogy elvarázsoljon, mint az elődei!
Találkozunk hamarosan Budapesten!!! :)
One of the best!
Nice style Emil on the guitar
Wooo this song is so amazing!

Reminds me to Anette Olzon a bit, preffer Heidis voice, but this ol'woman can sing very good too
Heidi has the range but lacks the power. Imo, Capri has both.
I've been looking forward to the new album! I hope it's just as great and catchy
Loooooove Capri so much
Bravoooo!!! This is Amazing!!! Good job!!!
I will buy the album ;) !
Best than the previous one. Like it!
awesome!
Im so happy that I found this
super music and video
i loved this !
прекрасный голос, прекрасная женщина....
Love it!!!!!! Gr8 video also!
PERFECT
I like this song
Вроде бабушка поёт. Но побеждает музыка, и я её люблю, эту бабулю. Она прекрасно ремиксила все песни, вселила новую жизнь в них. Замечательная энергетика в её голосе. В последнем альбоме я вообще ABBA наблюдал, очень приятно

Lol this band has like 8 awsome and it's so fucking underrated! AD needs more love!
This reminds me of a story I wrote, called Captain Jansen and the Phoenix, about two female captains and their ship.
Raven S hi
Pirate songs are awesome!
Best part of the video when she grasps the hand of the woman who has just been hurt... for me anyways
Great song
ótima música. >
Awesome!
