freeadvice4lost_Kate R. Pillars yep, back when S&M came out it was people criticising not only Metallica for doing it, but many were angry the San Francisco Orchestra performed with them. I was really young but it was definitely something that angered both metal and classical fans alike. Part of what makes it all the more special.
This was the miracle of this concert. She sang a whole freakin' concert with a sore throat/cold, and did it beautifully. She's an angel right here on earth.
Wow I had no idea she was sick. It is amazing she can still do such an amazing job while sick. Symphonic metal bands are really made of the most talented people.
@@lunacouer ... to me the start sounded rough for first three or four songs, but then se got better [i think after Jillian song] and the second half was amazingly good ...
Forgot the choir. I think we have an amazing orchestra named “ Metropole Orchestra “ overhere in the Netherlands and they do a lot of of collabs in any music style. That’s why it’s called Symphonic Metal. Look TH-cam at the 10 year anniversary of Epica and found an other great collaboration between metal band, orchestra and choir. Enjoy
Slash once advocated that the best way to find out if a band is really worth their salt is by listening to their live recordings before taking in their studio releases. I like this version even better than their studio cut of this song and that never happens with me. A truly strong delivery and stage presence (and not just because of the orchestra or the effects). I wish this band had a stronger following in the US so they could do more touring here.
Seen them live twice here in NY both times they played this song and I got goosebumps. They really are an amazing band and they are phenomenal live. They deserve more fans here in the US. Wish they would do their theatre tour here I would love to see it live.
Paul Thomas At least you guys GET tours. I live in Canada in a tiny city most of you probably haven't even heard of called 'Calgary' (aka: the boring, dull, cold place that i hate but everyone strangely likes)
Sharon Den Adel's voice gives me chills. I'm thoroughly convinced that when you go to Heaven, the angels all sound like her. Absolutely incredible voice.
Take the words of Winston Churchill, pair them with a rock song pleading for divine assistance performed by an entire symphony and choir, and you've got yourself a masterpiece that captures both the darkness of WWII and the timeless insanity of the world's aristocrats trying to control everyone else. Bravo, Within Temptation, bravo!
Holy fucking shit. I heard this song on pandora and looked them up on YT. This band is so badass. Busted 10 nuts while listening to this song. The orchestra and the choir is wow!!
How could anyone not like, NO, LOVE this? Apart from being the most talented and amazing singer and voice she is BEAUTIFUL!!! Kardashions etc eat your hearts out!!!
@@CyanideGirl94 sure is, as is Tarja or simone simmons. but there is only one Sharon, and even as much as i love Floor, Sharon still has my vote for beest symphonic female singer of all times.
I first heard this song probably 15 years ago when I was 12 years old in the hospital, and I’ve been in love with Within Temptation ever since. Amazing song, amazing band, thank you for sharing this amazing music with the world. I feel like this song is especially poignant in these troubled times, Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour🙏
can there ever be a better song + performance combo? this is hands down my fav song, and the live is done so epically, its the only band i listen live versions too, because its consistent quality.
I just missed the old Within Temptation style and I believe most of your fans are thinking that way. In my opinion, The Heart Of Everything album is the peak of your musical career. Please don't follow the popular culture and don't change your style. Loves from Turkey. :)
this is how I dream of music being. I am so thankful that someone had the vision to make this happen. To see this live would have been probably the most epic and amazing thing I've ever seen.
I don't even know what to say, this is truly magical. It really was the most spectacular event of the year, I would do anything see a show like this, and it's easily one of the bests WT has ever done!
On the one hand, it'd be sad if that were the case, but I wouldn't be surprised, given all the problems in the world, including the tantruming child of an authoritarian who's now in the White House. And on the other hand, if this was sung in churches, I'd become a churchgoer just to participate. This truly is a powerful song, a wonderful plea to the divine in the bleakest of human experiences
it's a song about questioning why we should worship a being if we don't know whether or not they exist, let alone wishes to do anything about the problems that were created.
Really? Huh. By the lyrics, I thought it was more along the lines of, "Humanity keeps messing up because it's only human but the people who do believe in a higher power still manage to find the hope to ask it for help."
I still remember finding out about this album - was browsing through a record store trying to figure out if I was going to get anything(I'm pretty picky, and I was kind of broke then), saw this, and my jaw dropped a bit. Bought it instantly, and haven't regretted it for a minute. It's still the only concert DVD I own.
"it will find it's way somehow, somewhere in time" - IT HAS ALREADY FOUND, I'm lost for words, am about to lose my faith, it seems our solemn hour came again, and if we fail, everything will be in vain... Ukraine is on the front line of the struggle for freedom and independence, this war is not only against Ukrainians but the whole free world!
@@svyatoslavustinchenko7144 sry, dunno what u mean by "care", can only assume u meant military technological aid, in that case, what I can say is just that it seems to me they wanted to avoid provoking kremlin on hostilities in the light of non-negotiable difference between kremlin interpretation of minsk agreements which couldn't be implemented and ukrainian, it's all about politics, geopolitics, business and so on, it requires a strong argument, but I dare say, they didn't turn Ukraine in, having responded to kremlin ultimatum in Ukraine favour, furthermore, hard times showing u who your friends (allies) are, as for me I believe allies and a lot compassionate people have done so much already to say em all THANK YOU, and yep, better late than never
Symphonic rock is like a pizza and chips in one meal together. You know that it's unpopular, but you can connect it together despite this and you will have a lot of joy like no one!
I remember hearing this song for the first time more than a decade ago and thinking how beautiful it is. Today though, the true meaning of it comes into full focus. Say no to war. 🕊
аххххх....это великолепно!!!! особенно начало слов....там,где явно слышно,что это живой звук!!!! люблю вас!!!! про съемку и актерское матерсво девочки вообще молчу. выше всяких похвал. умничка!!!!
Best band I have ever heard and they are completely unknown here in Montreal ;( I tried without success to get them played on local radio. Their music is on a whole higher level compared to everyone else.
If you like this you might also want to try Epica. It takes little more effort to get into but it is worth it. Good songs to start with are "the phantom agony", "once upon a nightmare" , "feint" and "tides of time"
A Jones she had a bad case of the cold and been in bed with high fever until 1 day before the concert. On the day itself her nasal cavities where still badly clogged. If listen carefully you can hear it. Still un amazing performance.
TODOS son muy parcos en sus comentarios y hay un alto porcentaje de tontos que no les agradan o canciones o videos de within temptation . PERO no importa ELLOS SON GRANDIOSOS . excelente musica y SHARON hermosamente bella .
Only the fact that you sounds even better in lives then in recordings pruves how awsome your voice is and how good your band can support that voice . I only wish you could come to greece for a show even for like an hour or so
me,too. you know i love this group so much!!! everyone must listen WT!!!!

I'd love to see a remastered version of this 10 years old video. Both sound and foremost video would benefit from it, still it is OK as-is, considering the age.
I hate it so bad i can only like this video once! they deserve so much more fans than they have right now Keep going Within temptation, I'm looking forward to 17 march 2012 to see you live!
This is one of the most beautiful songs in the history of symphonic metal
I love bands that have symphonies in their songs, it makes them so much better.
Yep, that's why/how an entire genre - Symphonic Metal - came into existence. LOL Started by Nightwish, but definitely perfected by WT.
Well Metallica made a very big push toward the cause when they released the S&M album.
@@bassnazi4713 agreed. I've yet to discover something worth comparing to Dream Theater's SCORE and Metallica's S&M.
freeadvice4lost_Kate R. Pillars yep, back when S&M came out it was people criticising not only Metallica for doing it, but many were angry the San Francisco Orchestra performed with them. I was really young but it was definitely something that angered both metal and classical fans alike. Part of what makes it all the more special.
freeadvice4lost_Kate R. Pillars and while many metal fans hated Evanescence, they helped a ton at a time when rock in general was hurting.
Within temptation and evanescence is my most fav band they both are like angels I want to cry listening to them.
In case you live in Europe, I really hope you heard of the Double Headliner Tour :D
@Kry Kry Stott merhaba ben
On September there should be their concert in Poland. I am an atheist but I will pray for that event to happen :)
spoke my heart.Those two are my favourite metal bands
@@mobasshirakarimnaina4879 YESS
Her voice is divine, it makes me cry, it's so overwhelming! amazing show, I wish someday I could see them live
I'm still getting chills all over my body....
Anybody listening in 2020 still?
Yes, and I speak spanish
Yes and I'm English and 60 years old and a dyed in the wool hippie biker!
Love within temptation.have their music on a specific playlist on Spotify
Yes very good music i love it although i have the age of 65
Yes me and i from indonesia
This is my favourite version of this song. Despite her having been sick, this is the best... I love it.
Karla Crous we should all sing this well sick.
This was the miracle of this concert. She sang a whole freakin' concert with a sore throat/cold, and did it beautifully. She's an angel right here on earth.
Wow I had no idea she was sick. It is amazing she can still do such an amazing job while sick. Symphonic metal bands are really made of the most talented people.
@@lunacouer ... to me the start sounded rough for first three or four songs, but then se got better [i think after Jillian song] and the second half was amazingly good ...
Who said you can't combine metal with a symphony orchestra? It was beautiful
Forgot the choir. I think we have an amazing orchestra named “ Metropole Orchestra “ overhere in the Netherlands and they do a lot of of collabs in any music style. That’s why it’s called Symphonic Metal. Look TH-cam at the 10 year anniversary of Epica and found an other great collaboration between metal band, orchestra and choir. Enjoy
Yes, because it was the first time someone did it, right? Even metallic did the same..... duh!
I think nobody say that...
Metal with a symphony orchestra is called MEGA METAL
no one said it, it's called symphonic metal and its been done for decades....
That woman's vocal range is amazing....
Slash once advocated that the best way to find out if a band is really worth their salt is by listening to their live recordings before taking in their studio releases. I like this version even better than their studio cut of this song and that never happens with me. A truly strong delivery and stage presence (and not just because of the orchestra or the effects). I wish this band had a stronger following in the US so they could do more touring here.
I agree. I was lucky enough to actually see them live when they toured in Philly last October and they were amazing
Seen them live twice here in NY both times they played this song and I got goosebumps. They really are an amazing band and they are phenomenal live. They deserve more fans here in the US. Wish they would do their theatre tour here I would love to see it live.
Paul Thomas At least you guys GET tours. I live in Canada in a tiny city most of you probably haven't even heard of called 'Calgary' (aka: the boring, dull, cold place that i hate but everyone strangely likes)
I've heard of Calgary. That's where the Jamaican bobsled team made their debut in the 1988 Winter Olympics.
Paul Thomas I enjoy their live recordings very much.
If Within Temptation fans made a nation, this would surely be their national anthem...
THIS is the song I use to introduce people to Symphonic Metal. There is no better representation!!
This is so badass that it gives me the chills!
+Sebastian Michaelis yeah, and I'm SO, SO happy that it isn't blocked anymore!!!
Sharon Den Adel's voice gives me chills. I'm thoroughly convinced that when you go to Heaven, the angels all sound like her. Absolutely incredible voice.
I agree with u..and as gorgeous as her too
Take the words of Winston Churchill, pair them with a rock song pleading for divine assistance performed by an entire symphony and choir, and you've got yourself a masterpiece that captures both the darkness of WWII and the timeless insanity of the world's aristocrats trying to control everyone else. Bravo, Within Temptation, bravo!
Please tell me again how Adolf Hitler is an aristocrat????

@@Behnam_Irani so very far from the truth. You must a socialist or communist at heart to be claiming such an erroneous statement.
@@haseoyamazaki8897 I think he's more likely from that losing faction in ww2.
all i can say is EPIC . Sharon's voice is angelic.

What a show. And a beautiful voice too. I love it too.
I Love this band. They're magnificent.

Офигенный концерт,слушала и мурашки бегали :)
В голове вместо мозга?
@@СтаниславБерлускони хуя вы тут общаетесь
Concordo plenamente

Amazing song, amazing band, thank you for sharing this amazing music with the world. I feel like this song is especially poignant in these troubled times, Sanctus Espiritus, redeem us from our solemn hour🙏
uma das melhores bandas de metal sinfonico gótico
I would love if Nightwish did something like this. A live performance with a live orchestra
Mooi
This is a concert that 100% needs an encore... same exact songs and same exact style. Still the best concert ive ever seen after 12 years. Perfection.
If this will ever happen again and I have any opportunity to get there I will probably do so.
2024 someone?
No
Yep
уе
Old is not gold
Old is not platinum
Old is Titanium

I still have goosebumps from this song... my whole teenager's life passes by
can there ever be a better song + performance combo?

If I may, there's absolutely nothing "popular" in this song :)
Im sure you mean "pop culture"
MmM ZZzzzp "Pop culture" is literally just the shorthand for "popular culture."
Yes, that album was the peak of their musical career and is my favorite album of all time.
The Unforgiving and The Silent Force were beautiful, too.
this is how I dream of music being. I am so thankful that someone had the vision to make this happen. To see this live would have been probably the most epic and amazing thing I've ever seen.
OMG WHAT A SONG! PERFECT
Uma das minhas favoritas do Within e uma das minhas Top 50 melhores do mundo a fantástica Our Solemn Hour!!!
SIIIM!!
I think this will forever be my favorite song by them.
WITHIN TEMPTATION AND EVANESCENCE.. MY FAVOURITS GROUPS! LOVE THEM...
Same
Stefano Giusti omg same
If you like them, try Nightwish too. :)
And also Epica.
And Also Tarja Turunen 😁
This song is more relevant today than ever...
I've never gotten this many goose umps throughout a video. This has to be the most amazing performance I have ever seen
Hasta me pone la piel de gallina. Una mezcla de emociones...
A mi también
magistral voice .I love you so much Sharon ❤
They are just as amazing live without all the extra stuff!
My all time favourite song it just have a power a high beat O my god, Whenever I listen I just feel I have a kindom still listening in 2021 ....
Sanctus Espiritus redeem us from our solemn hour!
2021 and this song'lyrics keeps beeing so true.
I look forward to your next concerts in France or Belgium, I miss you.
I can't really remember how I found you. But I'm so glad I did! Love this song and forgiven.
so damn ,you got right about.PEACE
I found them with ice queen. Then this song had me listening to EVERYTHING
I just heard this song in 2016. Omg.
+Ara Joolia The same for me (well, in 2015 in fact)
Me 2 :) Just amazing!
I saw this in 2016.
Me too.
Ara Joolia ara omg is so true
I don't even know what to say, this is truly magical. It really was the most spectacular event of the year, I would do anything see a show like this, and it's easily one of the bests WT has ever done!
In the coming years, I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a hymn sung in church.
On the one hand, it'd be sad if that were the case, but I wouldn't be surprised, given all the problems in the world, including the tantruming child of an authoritarian who's now in the White House.

everytime i get The question why i love this band this is my awnser
This is my favorite! Her voice sounds the best in this one.... wait, I've been saying that on every W/in Temptation song lol
Not gonna lie, this may be the most epic song I've ever heard. As far as raw power and energy goes, it's incredible.

This is a lot of times better than the studio one
That pretty much happens with every song they play live
This SERIOUSLY needs to be re-uploaded in HD. I still get goosebumps watching it, remembering when I saw it for the first time...
I remember hearing this song for the first time more than a decade ago and thinking how beautiful it is. Today though, the true meaning of it comes into full focus. Say no to war. 🕊

This DVd is a total gem. I've watched, I swear, 10 times since I got it, and it never gets old.
I know in this one she's sick, but oddly, I enjoy how soft her voice is in this!
And she's still sounding good :)
Despite her sickness
sick? ?
+SanjeevGeorgeV yeah, she was sick during this. I can't recall what it was (a cold, I want to say?). That's why her voice sounds slightly off.
+Emiley Tanaka She was several months pregnant when this was filmed. *I think*
Was wondering, I noticed that she wasn't able to hold the same range, still an epic performance though.
A Jones she had a bad case of the cold and been in bed with high fever until 1 day before the concert. On the day itself her nasal cavities where still badly clogged. If listen carefully you can hear it. Still un amazing performance.
Дуже круто!!!
I have liked this song for years, it was really nice to see you in Warsaw :)
Very Best, Within Temptation.
TODOS son muy parcos en sus comentarios y hay un alto porcentaje de tontos que no les agradan o canciones o videos de within temptation . PERO no importa ELLOS SON GRANDIOSOS . excelente musica y SHARON hermosamente bella .

I should probably use this song to wake me in the morning. I can't imagine being groggy after five minutes of this.
Powerful! And yet very beautiful........she is pure dynamite! Many of their songs are masterpieces.
это что-то... браво!
Only the fact that you sounds even better in lives then in recordings pruves how awsome your voice is and how good your band can support that voice . I only wish you could come to greece for a show even for like an hour or so
