Check out my reaction to "Save Our Lives" next 🎶 th-cam.com/video/ZTnMiPMoel4/w-d-xo.html or my first ever Forestella reaction here! th-cam.com/video/XuAEjscjDY0/w-d-xo.html
I loved your thorough and very professional analysis! One of my favorite reactors for sure! When I first listened to Utopia I was thinking how hard it would be to perform it live,I definitely thought they would have to change some things to pull it through because as you yourself said it is a complex piece.But they did it live many times and to my ears,it sounds the same as the studio version.My suggestion for your next reaction to Forestella would be Snow Globe, another original composed by Kang Hyung Ho!
WOW!! WOW!! I hope Forestella members see this reaction. Their work and effort for 8 months did not go to waste. Sir Hairless gets it , and he is explaining it to the world! Valensia Clarkson from Spain ( hence many Spain references) was asked to compose the music since he was heavily influenced by Queen. Valensia has a few videos in TH-cam explaining how he tried to put it together. Forestella wanted changes to adapt to their theme and style. So many changes were made. You will notice Kang Hung Ho’s name also in the credits. He and the other members tweeked it to fit Forestella’s vision. The video was put together during the pandemic and they creatively did a lot of it indoors. What a masterpiece! And we needed someone like you Sir, to break it down for us. Forestella takes on the toughest projects and puts their all into it. Thank you Sir, for the excellent reaction!
Wow- the complexity! This piece truly deserves many listens to appreciate the depth and artistry of their original challenging music. Thank you for your insights expressed.
Forestella Utopia를 듣고 받았던 첫 충격을 잊을 수가 없습니다. 그것은 위대하고 웅장한 영화의 한 편이었습니다. 포레스텔라의 기막히게 아름답고 웅장한 하모니에 완전 빠졌죠. 매일 들어도 매일 바뀌는 날씨처럼 새롭게 발견되는 아름다움을 가진 노래, Utopia sung by Forestella. 전문가적 해석 굉장히 흥미롭게 들었습니다. 감사합니다.
포레스텔라의 이 노래, 유토피아를 처음 들었을 때 이게 뭐지?라는 생각을 했었어요 들을 때마다 감탄하게 되고 라이브로 이 노래를 들었을 때는 정말 제 귀에 엄청난 오케스트라가 있는 줄 알았죠 이렇게 설명해주시니 이 노래를 한층 더 이해할 수 있게 된 거 같아 너무 좋네요 감사합니다 이 영상 보면서 깊이 감동 받았습니다😊
When this song came out a few people were sceptical about how they would perform it live. But the live version of this blows me away because they nail every aspect of the song and they sound so close to the recording, it is incredible. Thank you for this analysis. This song does take a while to understand if im honest, but once you do it is really good. Also the final 3 acts havent been released yet, I think they will be out after the bass has finished his military enlistment. They released a kpop song called Kool which is kind of related but it doesn't follow on from any of the acts so I am not sure it is part of the trilogy.
Kool came as a response to a promise to fans to do a dance. Instead of doing a cover they created their own song. Kool is one of my favorites. I listen to it almost daily.
BRILLIANT, brilliant analysis as always, and the best I've encountered for this insane mini-opera. Thank you, Sir. I admire and envy the way your brain works alongside your emotional honesty.
This is one I've had to re-watch many times. It captures the utter chaos of our current world: so many good intentions but so many bad outcomes. A cacophony surrounds us daily. Powerful song and performance.
"Not sure what I was expecting, but it was not that" hahahaha, right? 😂 It's such an amazing and special piece. And thank you for your analysis, so great, as always! You're a jewel in music, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks a lot for this reaction/analysis to Forestella ❤❤❤❤ I was anxiously waiting for another reaction to them! Yeah, you definitely right about the inspiration on Bohemian Rhapsody. It was a special request from Forestella to Valensia, a songwriter/composer that had already some work in that line since he is a fan of the Queen as well as the members of Forestella. The members made some adjustments to the lyrics together with the songwriter. The idea of men and nature. What is utopia to men definitely is dystopia to the nature as we see today. The idea is an integration between these parts to really create a world of utopia and well-being. The third part of this trilogy is still to be done. In between we have a song named Kool that is a kpop song made as a promise from Forestella to SoopByeol (Forestella’s fandom) regarding the M/V Save Our Lives reach something like 900k views on YT. A completely change in style (not that Forestella has an unique style at all - they navigate through various genres and always with exceptional musicality as you already saw) but with Kool, that is a light and good vibe kpop song, they just assured us that they can sing whatever they feel to sing. It’ll be always good. I liked a lot of your analysis as always. And I have learned from you about some details that I had skipped- and I watched this video lots of time already since it’s one of my favorites. I will enjoy it even more from now on. Thanks, again. 💙
Great reaction and analysis. This song grows on you the more you listen. They contacted the Dutch composer Valensia to compose this song. He has a huge Queen influence. I saw an interview where Kang Hyungh said it was even more complicated originally. They went back to him and asked him to rework it a bit. They ended up working together on the song. I think Forestella are listed as cowriters. I have seen a few videos of them performing this live. It was amazing ❤❤❤❤
FORESTELLA WITH HER GREAT PERFORMANCES ALWAYS, EXCELLENT ANALYSIS, YOU MUST ALSO SEE THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, NELLA FANTASIA. I LOVE YOUR REACTION CHANNEL. ❤❤
Thank you very much . I loved your reaction and it was very informative. Forestella was phenomenal as always, however I have watched this video quite a few times before but have missed so many of the things you pointed out. I appreciate all the effort. Keep up the excellent work.
The composer of this is Valensia. He has a Queen tribute album (I looked him up when this first came out because of the obvious Queen vibes.) Certain elements of this remind me of the multilayered sounds and classical feel of songs like by Mr Blue SKy ELO back in the day.
Valensia, the composer, lived many years of his life in the Valencian Community in Spain. That's (I guess) the reason for the many references to Valencia area in the song (beautiful place, by the way, really lovely).
Lol Sir Hairless, your puzzled reaction was very much the same as mine the first time I saw this video but it is a brilliant piece of work isn’t it? I’m glad you made the reference to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody though as these guys have also sung that live which is just phenomenal to watch so really hoping you’ll get round to reacting to that one day too ☺️. Many thanks again for this reaction and until the next time, take care and bye for now 👋🏻
Thank you for your incredible analysis! I learned so much from this. This is one of their masterpieces. I heard them singing, it live and it was just as incredibly good, surprisingly.
After checking out their Bohemian Rhapsody, please check their covers in related concepts with their original songs as well. I believe they presented concepts connected with their covers for Inner Universe, Lazenca Save us with Save our lives (I'll say SOL). And between SOL and UTOPIA, they said Bad Romance was a concept bridge. The Page Dance Project - the dancers in this UTOPIA m/v - collaborated from since their Bad Romance, Forestella themselves also involved in directing the choreos, like they had selected Dellomez dancers and directed the choreos when they covered Inner Universe in Phantom Singer All Stars. They use instruments and choreos and everything for the perfection the artistry of their work. I think they covered Kpop songs like Fake Love (of BTS) and MAMA (of EXO) to show the concepts of their trilogy better..please check the original songs first and then Forestella's versions to see better how they added their own colors. They have very good tastes in choosing a song to cover, I think it would be enjoyable for you! They even danced although they are a classical crossover quartet, when the song needs dance to be completed. Check MJ's Smooth Criminal by Forestella which they had to practice their moves 6 hours a day, if you are interested in their dance talent!
I have listened to, and watched, this song over and over. The details you pointed out WHY this song is so distinctive to me. Thank you for your elucidation. As always, I learned through your analysis. Thank you!
Nossa sua reacao/ analise foi incrível😊❤ Esse trabalho deles é de fato fantástico... e voce foi quem melhor fez um analise nao apenas musicalmente falando, mais notou detalhes que muitos nunca nem notaram... parabéns 🎉Ansiosa por mais reações e analises suas com o Forestella. Adoraria poder te enviar um link raro que nao se acha no you tube... tenho ela em drive apenas do Forestella ... como poderia te enviar? Você vai amar assistir e ouvir 😊❤ beijos do Brasil ❤❤❤❤
@martaporto3038 Amiga, você abriu um portal aqui! 😂 Fiquei curiosa! Perguntas: 1. É algum daqueles vídeos do Phantom Singer que não estão no YT ou não? 2. Se não é e você enviar para Sir Hairless ele vai poder reagir à ele? 💕🙏🏽✌🏽
@@ninalopesbrasil Tenho 3 dos vídeos originais em driver do Phanton singer 2 que não existem no you tube... ele poderá reagir .. ja enviei para alguns que reagiram e todos ficaram encantados ....kkkkk
@@SirHairless Existem 3 vídeos aos quais nao existe no you tube, eu os tenho em drive do Forestella, é do programa que fez o Forestella... 3 das 4 apresentações que eles fizeram quando se tornaram o Forestella.. é simplesmente MAGNÍFICO... das 4 só se acha 1 deles pelo you tube... por ser em drive gostaria de poder lhe enviar no privado... teria como? Voce vai ficar encantado com o que eles já faziam logo no começo e sintonia deles.
@@martaporto3038 Wow, sounds amazing! If you provide me with an email address I can contact you on, then I can reach out to you? I'd rather not post my email address here publicly
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this passionate reaction and fascinating analysis. You made me appreciate the song even more, which I didn't think was possible. 💚 The third part of the trilogy is still in the making. I'm immensely curious what it will be, but meanwhile, Save our Lives and Utopia work quite well as a two-parter, I feel. The apple here sort of turns into the universe at the moment of the bite, which leads back nicely to the beginning of Save our Lives, like a snake biting its own tail. I very much recommend checking out Snow Globe which Forestella released last November and was composed by Kang Hyungho. It's my favourite.
Com seu conhecimento musical e sua análise 🤩, gosto mais ainda dessa grande obra de Forestella. Continue seu excelente trabalho. Abraços de Déborah,do Brasil!!
Thank you for your wonderful review and analysis on this masterpiece of Forestella! This is the 2nd part of their trilogy. You can see act 4~6 here. The 1st part was their Save our lives and you can find act 1~3 there. Some fans said the 3rd part is White Night, but I think White Night is out of trilogy because in the album description of KOOL which was released later than White Night, it was said "또한 'KOOL'은 세계수(World Tree) 3부작 시리즈 도중 발매하는 스핀 오프 싱글로, 세계관의 경계(Borderline)에 있어 이전 앨범의 여러 요소를 숨겨두었다. 이로 하여금 숨겨진 요소와 그 의미를 찾는 재미도 느껴볼 수 있을 것이다." "KOOL came out in the middle of trilogy as a spin-off single." This is what I read, so I'm guessing the trilogy isn't finished yet. The theme of the song was like Utopia for human beings might be dystopia for nature. And we need to find a way to co-exist because human beings are also a part of the nature. In the end of Save our lives- their original song as well, previous of Utopia, you can see the World Tree was growing up. That concept of world tree of life is from Nordic myth's Yggdrasill so their concept and story is also a crossover of the biblical metaphors and nordic mythical symbols.. and they took the 4 elements idea of Aristotle in the Save our lives like each of Forestella is representing an element like the Fire, the Water, the Air and the Earth. Interestingly, their vocal ranges fit the elements for each too. We can just guess and imagine stories, I think we can get everything clearer when the 3rd part is released. The composer is a Dutch named Valensia who lives in Valencia in Spain. Forestella requested him to make an operatic part like Bohemian Rhapsody as Valensia was so strongly influenced by Queen, like to have made Queen tribute album himself. Actually his first demo version of Utopia was named Valencia, like Barcelona by Freddie Mercury and Monserrat Caballé, a hymn for Valencia. But Forestella changed the lyrics to suit their World Tree and Utopia concept. It's interesting that still we can find some names of local spots in Valencia, lol. They had more than 17K takes and used more than 400 tracks for this one song. It took more than 2 months of recording as far as they said. As always they sound better in live, so check out their live performance in Mnet too! This song is really addictive and became an earworm in my head like constantly
As a visual art graduate and storytelling fanatic I notice so many amazing things from the lyrics, narratives, visuals of the MV but clueless when it comes to sound/musical interpretation. Your extensive analysis on one of my favourite Forestella's pieces is very satisfying as you talk about it on multiple elements yet staying on the similar track as mine but much more in depth. Please do Snow Globe too! The tune, lyrics, theme, their voices, absolutely lovely. Kang HH, the rocker/counter tenor composed it and the whole members were involved in writing the lyrics too.
I think you better check Forestella Queen's best songs compilation video on KBS Jeonju channel as soon as possible. That has the very first Bohemian Rhapsody by them, which made Forestella known to the world. You might already have had found Mystique encore concert live version, it's very dark so hard to see their face expression in the song there.
goodness, i feel like you went more in depth than any other reactor to this song, and i loved it! i feel like i understand this song so much better than before, which makes me appreciate it and everyone who made it so much more! thanks for the reaction and analysis, can't wait for some more forestella reactions from you 😊
Oh fabulous! Great analysis as always Sir H. Yes, I can’t wait for the final 7-9 either. I agree, Queen is evident in several places but I could also hear Sparks ….. “This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us” in the second act too.
Hey Sir! This is one of your analyses that I wish all people involved in the creation of the original art could also watch it, so that they would feel the satisfaction of experiencing true understanding and appreciation of their creation. It’s wonderful to follow your thinking process and being able to ‘see’ through your eyes (and ears) an epic musical journey like this presented by Forestella. Three times thank you, because I like this number☘
I really like your analysis.❤ Utopia is difficult, but it's new music, so it's really my favorite song now. It was good to be able to understand parts that I didn't know through your interpretation. 👍 Forestella covers various music regardless of genre in Forestella style, and prepares and creates their original songs.✨ Forestella is a group that always tries to find their own new music. So I love their beautiful music.❤
The creative geniuses who thought of this World tree concept and put the music and videos together have to be commended and encouraged. Forestella has proven that they can sing just about anything! The most perfect quartet. We don’t often come across geniuses like these in several decades. Let’s support and encourage them the best way we can. After Utopia Forestella set aside the apple for a while and put out a spin off called “ KOOL” to cater to the people who like popular music and dance numbers. But the folks who get their artistry and understand the complexity need to encourage them to bring out masterpieces like these! Those that will be studied for generations and stand the test of time!
I am foaming at the mouth for the final installment!! You are the only reviewer that I’ve seen so far that has mentioned the segments of the song switching their order. I could have done a back flip when you said it. ❤ And people talk all the time about Hyungho’s Bb5 in Champions or Mingyu’s C6 in Magic Castle… but NO ONE mentions Doohoon and that beautifully effortless C# The Composer that Forestella chose for this is Valensia, and I’m sure they hired him for his heavy Queen influence. (Have you seen Forestella’s cover of Bohemian Rhapsody? I remember you did Pentatonix, but not sure if you did these boys). Other Forestella songs I would love to see you review: Lazenca, Save Us Inner Universe Snow Globe (written by Hyungho) And I will always recommend Cho Mingyu’s Balada de la Trompeta
Thank you! I'm just here to give some love to the bits no one else notices I've not seen Forestella's "Bohemian Rhapsody" yet, but don't worry - it's on my list for a future reaction Thanks for the other reco's!
Wow 🤩 wow 🤩. This is amazing. . Sir… You seem to find out every single thing they mean and hide 🫣. I hope Forestella could watch your reaction. Thanks 😊. Love from Korea
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! (Yes, I actually screamed!) I watched this reaction twice! YOU ARE SO GOOD IT HURTS 😭 I told you so much happens in this song, first time I listened I didn't know what to think about it but after listening to it several times, it grows on you, and actually sounds really nice once you know how it goes. The level of details you caught here, both musically and with the video, man I watched this probably dozens of times if I am honest and some of the things you referred to I never noticed! Like the girls with the faces covered, or the high sounds with two different instruments form high to low, also I never realized they inverted the order of two sections of the songs from Act4 to Act5, that's crazy. I'm mind blown! You are my favorite reactor... I literally un-subbed from so many reactors cause after getting used to your level no one's reactions satisfy me anymore! I hope they don't hate you cause since you appear I am pretty sure I am not the only one who feels this way. GAAAAAHHHHH, know that my next request will be the third part of the trilogy so you can already write that down. AND I CAN'T WAIT. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the time you dedicated to this request and for your appreciation for all music, I like it or not, I love your passion for all genres and opportunity to all sounds. You are great! Don't change! Lupe.-
Para mi también es el mejor analista que encontré hasta el momento. Honestamente sólo escucho y sigo a Forestella y a cuanto reactor suba un video de ellos en YT . Definitivamente nadie se toma el trabajo tan en serio como Sir Hairless. Es muy profesional y maneja mucha información. Una mente muy lúcida, con un oído magnífico. Sus expresiones faciales son fascinantes!! Por más seguidores de su canal!!!! Hablando de Utopia... qué Artistas inmensos son estos 4 cantantes... hay que ser muy talentosos para crear esta obra de arte. ❤
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Completely agree about Sir Hairless being the best analyst/reactor on YT although I understand that each reactor had his/her own method but Sir musical knowledge, the keen ear and didactic add so much pleasure to us to listen to him and to the artist. I just would like to add a comment here: it seems to me - according to many fans ascertained - White Night is not part of the trilogy although it is in the same ideological line, let's say. Some fans have already left comments here explaining why and I have the same understanding. But it's definitely a matter of interpretation and White Night is a wonderful song. 💕🙏🏽
Haha glad you liked it This song is still blowing my mind; I've been listening to it on repeat since yesterday....when I work, when I walk to the shops, when I'm cooking. So many emotions it triggers in me...it is pure stimulation I think it's a masterpiece. I also changed my rating of it 4 times today already I've finally reached my final decision which you'll see in my March monthly ratings video Thank you so much for your kind words, and your continued support The third part of the trilogy isn't out yet, is it?
Thank you for helping to help us understand the complexities of Forestella’s recordings. I can only speak for their English & Italian songs but their English & Italian is immaculate.. their words are clear, their faces & nuances make you feel that they understand every word they are singing & I feel that the musicians accompanying them need a mention too.
One of my absolute favorite pieces from FORESTELLA. And what vocals!! I don't think many vocalists can withstand this level (and they also perform it live)! It's like looking into a kaleidoscope - all small individual parts - but together a very complex reflection of our destructive selfish "fun society"" with all its consequences. "Utopia" never gets boring, there is always something new to discover. A very creative and passionate, crazy concept, coordinated down to the smallest detail. My greatest respect to everyone who worked together to create this audiovisual masterpiece. Also thanks to you and your amazing perceptive skills and first-class analysis.
Wow! What a song, I’m really quite happy you were confused by this song because I really feel a bit mad after listening 🤯 Fantastic analysis and thanks so much for breaking it down, you definitely hear so much more in the music than my ears can! I’m looking forward to the next reaction 🎵💕
Commenting in the middle of the video just so I don't forget but your indepth analysis on their song really opens my eyes to the amount of work that was put onto this song. It's not the easiest song to like but now I know at least what's behind everything. Thank you!!
Wow. I just binged all of your Forestella reactions. I usually skip the analysis of music by other reactors if it gets too long, but I stayed for every little second of your commentary. You have the amazing ability to entertain and educate at the same time!! Thank you so much for your reactions. I hope you will continue to react to Forestella. Personally, I can't wait for you to react to songs where Kang Hyungho's rock voice and Bae Doohoon's pop voice shines! For your convenience, here's a little list of their most popular cover performances: • Bohemian Rhapsody • Despacito • Lazenca Save Us • Time in a Bottle • Champions (Champions League Anthem) • We are the Champions (Queen) • Shape of You • Inner Universe ...and theres so many more, but these are my favs. Tbh I am sad that they didn't finish the trilogy before Woorim's military enlistment... but I guess it gets me counting down the days until they are together as four again. The hype is real 😂
Gracias a Dios que hay personitas muy especiales en las nuevas generaciones que no se dejan atrapar por el mundo del facilismo y hacen maravillosas obras de arte. Y son dignos descendientes de Freddy Mercury, Michael Jackson, Mozart, los castratis, etc. Magnífica obra de arte auditiva y visual. gracias por otra magistral clase y es innegable que tu pasión es la guía para aprender a emocionarnos con buena música a diario. Gracias por enseñarnos y compartir. un abrazote de madre gigante.
Wawww Sir Hairless... me dejaste con la mandíbula caída!! Tremendo análisis!! Qué claro y didáctico sos para explicar! Tenés muchísimo conocimiento y un vasto vocabulario. La verdad es que es un placer cómo vas desmenuzando cada detalle. Me hiciste comprender y valorar aún más el enorme talento de Forestella . Hace 3 días te pedí que incluyas a Forestella en comparación de covers... se me ocurre que Bohemian Rapsody es una pieza de arte que merece ser parte del proyecto. Gracias por volver a analizar a Forestella!!!! Saludos cordiales desde Argentina. ❤🇦🇷❤
Forestella wanted a "rock opera" like "Bohemian Rhapsody" and commissioned Valensia Clarkson, a Dutch multi-talent, very influenced by "Queen", to compose it. The vocalization is by FORESTELLA itself (directed by Kang HyungHo) and in coordination with Valensia. According to everyone who really appreciated each other, the vocalization was a long and very difficult but very successful process. In the first version, the composer referred to Valencia, the city in which he lived, but the lyrics had to be adapted to fit FORESTELLA's visions. (Migrants often get stranded around Valencia in Spain, known for its “party culture”, so a few “catchphrases” from the original form were appropriately adopted). I really hope that there will be further cooperation.
Thank you for your reaction to Utopia Your musical expertise and I respect your interpretation of the song That's amazing Like and subscribe I'll visit you often
Finally!!! I've been waiting for you to analyze this song. I also relied on subtitles today. Indeed, it's very stimulating for someone who can analyze this much. When I first saw this song, when I heard it, I thought it was between heaven and hell, and it was very stimulating. I was busy listening to it, so I couldn't slowly open the MV, but when you analyze it like this, I also opened it. I think your analysis is the closest to the intention of the composer and FORESTELLA. Waiting for another FORESTELLA video analysis.. I saw it. Thank you! 😍😍
@@SirHairless Perhaps he'd call it “The Hubs of Hell Concerto” but that doesn't jive because according to him the 9th circle of Hell is a frozen wasteland ❄️ ❄️🔱😉
Musically fascinating and complex, I love it! I enjoy hearing your breakdown each time, I was thrilled to see you had reacted to this. It’s so much fun and challenging to sing along with, if you haven’t already seen Pentatonix Making Christmas, that’s fun too and musically fascinating. Mitch had commented that it was the most complicated song they had done, such fun. Thank you Sir Hairless!
Still a bit in shock & amazement… what a massive project this was for them (AND you!).. who ever found this in their mind and put it to paper!?? A stunning piece (or trio of trio of pieces) musically and imagery. Felt like I was experiencing someone’s schizo-scherzo musical nightmare-dream of a psycho-drama with skillful yet confusing storytelling?? With that ending (prelude-tease), I’m already bracing for the finale. But not right away, gonna need a minute. I cannot begin to imagine how long this took you to R/A and then put into words for us… but all your work and insights are very appreciated. Just wow. Seriously, did they come up with this all themselves? Obviously with many resources. I need to pay closer attention to what I’m planning to listen to at night before sleep. Curious how long it took them from concept to completion. Amazing work, them and you also.
Haha what a great explanation! This one definitely took a lot longer than usual videos (pretty much twice as long!) was a lot in there. And I only managed to include probably around 25% of what I wanted to 😅 Apparently they worked with a Dutch composer; they had a concept, the composer created it, they made adjustments as necessary
@@SirHairless heh, glad you liked my poor midnight synopsis! The least of my thoughts about your R/A was the length of the video.. truly felt like it went by very quickly. I know you went above and beyond for such a complex piece, and you are very appreciated for it. And thanks for the background info.. now I’m wondering about this Dutch composer’s usual musical comfort zone!? Hmm. As always, looking forward to the next one
Merci Sir. UTOPIA est une « masterpiece « riche, brillante et très complexe. Grâce à votre SUPERBE analyse, vous éclairez notre compréhension, écoute et lecture de ce chef d’œuvre. Je suis émerveillée par la manière dont vous ressentez et comprenez la musique. C’est également un don. Merci de nous le faire partager avec autant de sincérité et de générosité. Bravo à FORESTELLA qui nous transportent à un autre niveau, dans un nouveau monde musical. Régalez vous avec Bohemian Rapsody dont le cover est remarquable. À très vite. Salutations de France 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
Hola Sir Hairless! Ante todo, felicitaciones por superar los 25k suscriptores! Que siga en aumento!! Más suscriptores disfrutando tus análisis detallados. Cuánto trabajo de búsqueda, comparación y edición hay detrás de cada análisis. Me encanta cómo vas devanando cada estrofa. Muy didáctico!! Quisiera revomendarte otra canción de Forestella que estimo te va a gustar mucho: Leyends never die. Saludos!!
Estaba esperando una reacción como ésta de Utopía, alguien que pudiera desmembrar cada parte y explicar su significado. Por supuesto me gustaría estar ahí contigo para que me esplicaras cada uno de los secretos que descubriste después de escucharlas 10 veces. Saludos desde Nicaragua. Eres un genio, gracias.
❤Pero que fantástico analisis, no esperaba menos de ti, gran trabajo este video y canción es excepcional una obra maestra en mi opinión, la tercera parte está inconcluso el video solo está la canción porque woorim se fue a cumplir su servicio militar pero es preciosa.. Gracias por tu tu gran y excelente reacción, espero con ansias el siguiente.❤ Saludos desde chile 💗🇨🇱
So, my friend, some of the previous commenters, explained who wrote this masterpiece. Would love to hear Forestella explain this in detail! Again, you, and your understanding is staggering! They had a phrase of “ Tierra Oscura”, which means dark earth, in Spanish. Could it be that Forestella’s “Utopia” REALLY IS NOT. Sounds too CHAOTIC and perhaps a touch macabre??? Just my own personal thought. What does anyone else think?
Según los chicos de Forestella, la canción hace referencia a la perspectiva de los humanos que viven en la "utopía" y la naturaleza que sufre la destrucción y es la "distopía", se supone que el tema va después de "save our lives" y la 3a. parte aún falta de realizarse... Al parecer se trata de hacer una reflexión seria para concientizar sobre el daño que estamos haciendo al planeta y que es urgente detener haciendo cambios profundos de que es la única casa para todos, hay fuerte mensaje de la plegaria universal pidiendo que se salve nuestra vida en la tierra, luego viene utopía con los elementos que usamos y destruyen y estamos en espera de la continuación o conclusión... Excelente análisis de este maravilloso e increíble cuarteto de Forestella que sorprende con sus voces magníficas que te llevan por un viaje increíble en cada interpretación y las emociones que comunican son bellísimas que enmudecemos para simplemente escucharlos..🎉❤🎉❤😅
you probably wanna check by your own their mnet stage for this song, the layers!!!! im not an expert as you are but i was on choir before (at least it helps me understand to all your analysis😂) and the progressions on this song are soooo satisfying.. anyway thanks for reaction!♡ you also should check their version of my favorite things😊
Sir Hairless, mis respetos para Ud que realmente hace un verdadero escudriño de la música de la letra del video wow, Gracias. Muchas gracias por tan excelente trabajo.

Valensia Clarkson from Spain ( hence many Spain references) was asked to compose the music since he was heavily influenced by Queen.

Thank you Sir, for the excellent reaction!
Wow- the complexity! This piece truly deserves many listens to appreciate the depth and artistry of their original challenging music. Thank you for your insights expressed.
I've never seen your face so animated! You MUST check out their rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody - the absolute best I've ever heard.
Hands down Best version ever!
I agree. I have personally never liked queen but when Forestella sings the song I feel it deeply and it becomes incredibly beautiful.
Forestella Utopia를 듣고 받았던 첫 충격을 잊을 수가 없습니다. 그것은 위대하고 웅장한 영화의 한 편이었습니다. 포레스텔라의 기막히게 아름답고 웅장한 하모니에 완전 빠졌죠. 매일 들어도 매일 바뀌는 날씨처럼 새롭게 발견되는 아름다움을 가진 노래, Utopia sung by Forestella.
전문가적 해석 굉장히 흥미롭게 들었습니다. 감사합니다.
They asked the composer exactly that: wanted an epic piece with some classical influences fused with Queen style rock .)
포레스텔라의 이 노래, 유토피아를 처음 들었을 때 이게 뭐지?라는 생각을 했었어요
들을 때마다 감탄하게 되고 라이브로 이 노래를 들었을 때는 정말 제 귀에 엄청난 오케스트라가 있는 줄 알았죠
이렇게 설명해주시니 이 노래를 한층 더 이해할 수 있게 된 거 같아 너무 좋네요
감사합니다
이 영상 보면서 깊이 감동 받았습니다😊
I had the same initial thoughts! I absolutely love it now
When this song came out a few people were sceptical about how they would perform it live. But the live version of this blows me away because they nail every aspect of the song and they sound so close to the recording, it is incredible. Thank you for this analysis. This song does take a while to understand if im honest, but once you do it is really good. Also the final 3 acts havent been released yet, I think they will be out after the bass has finished his military enlistment. They released a kpop song called Kool which is kind of related but it doesn't follow on from any of the acts so I am not sure it is part of the trilogy.
We could say it's just a spin-off for fun
Kool came as a response to a promise to fans to do a dance. Instead of doing a cover they created their own song. Kool is one of my favorites. I listen to it almost daily.
BRILLIANT, brilliant analysis as always, and the best I've encountered for this insane mini-opera. Thank you, Sir. I admire and envy the way your brain works alongside your emotional honesty.
Thank you ☺
This is one I've had to re-watch many times. It captures the utter chaos of our current world: so many good intentions but so many bad outcomes. A cacophony surrounds us daily. Powerful song and performance.
It certainly is powerful. Truly mind-blowing
UTOPlA에 대한 너무나도 심도 깊은 리액션을 듣고나니 Porestella, UTOPlA가 새롭게 다가옵니다.
Thank you~~, ❤🧡💛💚💙🤍
"Not sure what I was expecting, but it was not that" hahahaha, right? 😂 It's such an amazing and special piece. And thank you for your analysis, so great, as always! You're a jewel in music, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Bohemian Rhapsody with a touch of Kate Bush is what I hear! 🎶 Your analysis is as spectacular as the piece! Bravo SH! 👏 👏
Great description! Thank you!
Thanks a lot for this reaction/analysis to Forestella ❤❤❤❤ I was anxiously waiting for another reaction to them!
Yeah, you definitely right about the inspiration on Bohemian Rhapsody. It was a special request from Forestella to Valensia, a songwriter/composer that had already some work in that line since he is a fan of the Queen as well as the members of Forestella. The members made some adjustments to the lyrics together with the songwriter.
The idea of men and nature. What is utopia to men definitely is dystopia to the nature as we see today.
The idea is an integration between these parts to really create a world of utopia and well-being.
The third part of this trilogy is still to be done. In between we have a song named Kool that is a kpop song made as a promise from Forestella to SoopByeol (Forestella’s fandom) regarding the M/V Save Our Lives reach something like 900k views on YT. A completely change in style (not that Forestella has an unique style at all - they navigate through various genres and always with exceptional musicality as you already saw) but with Kool, that is a light and good vibe kpop song, they just assured us that they can sing whatever they feel to sing. It’ll be always good.
I liked a lot of your analysis as always. And I have learned from you about some details that I had skipped- and I watched this video lots of time already since it’s one of my favorites. I will enjoy it even more from now on. Thanks, again. 💙
Thank you for the comment and all the info 🙏 I've been listening to this on repeat since yesterday
Great reaction and analysis. This song grows on you the more you listen. They contacted the Dutch composer Valensia to compose this song. He has a huge Queen influence. I saw an interview where Kang Hyungh said it was even more complicated originally. They went back to him and asked him to rework it a bit. They ended up working together on the song. I think Forestella are listed as cowriters. I have seen a few videos of them performing this live. It was amazing ❤❤❤❤
After nearly 2 days straight of listening, can confirm it definitely grows on you the more you listen
FORESTELLA WITH HER GREAT PERFORMANCES ALWAYS, EXCELLENT ANALYSIS, YOU MUST ALSO SEE THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, NELLA FANTASIA. I LOVE YOUR REACTION CHANNEL. ❤❤
More of them please.❤❤❤
Watched it second time... Now we feel First Hand how bohemian Rhapsodie drove the people crazy at their time..
Thank you very much . I loved your reaction and it was very informative. Forestella was phenomenal as always, however I have watched this video quite a few times before but have missed so many of the things you pointed out. I appreciate all the effort. Keep up the excellent work.
Excellent revue, it takes several listens to understand their hidden message but it’s well worth it!
The composer of this is Valensia. He has a Queen tribute album (I looked him up when this first came out because of the obvious Queen vibes.) Certain elements of this remind me of the multilayered sounds and classical feel of songs like by Mr Blue SKy ELO back in the day.
Oh yes, the ending especially! I can imagine them singing "My Blue Sky" (or "please turn me over" - I think they're the actual lyrics)
Valensia, the composer, lived many years of his life in the Valencian Community in Spain. That's (I guess) the reason for the many references to Valencia area in the song (beautiful place, by the way, really lovely).
Lol Sir Hairless, your puzzled reaction was very much the same as mine the first time I saw this video but it is a brilliant piece of work isn’t it? I’m glad you made the reference to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody though as these guys have also sung that live which is just phenomenal to watch so really hoping you’ll get round to reacting to that one day too ☺️. Many thanks again for this reaction and until the next time, take care and bye for now 👋🏻
Thank you for your incredible analysis! I learned so much from this. This is one of their masterpieces. I heard them singing, it live and it was just as incredibly good, surprisingly.
This is what I call an analysis! Good job! I like the way you analyse every detail.
Thanks!
After checking out their Bohemian Rhapsody, please check their covers in related concepts with their original songs as well. I believe they presented concepts connected with their covers for Inner Universe, Lazenca Save us with Save our lives (I'll say SOL).
And between SOL and UTOPIA, they said Bad Romance was a concept bridge. The Page Dance Project - the dancers in this UTOPIA m/v - collaborated from since their Bad Romance, Forestella themselves also involved in directing the choreos, like they had selected Dellomez dancers and directed the choreos when they covered Inner Universe in Phantom Singer All Stars.
They use instruments and choreos and everything for the perfection the artistry of their work.
I think they covered Kpop songs like Fake Love (of BTS) and MAMA (of EXO) to show the concepts of their trilogy better..please check the original songs first and then Forestella's versions to see better how they added their own colors. They have very good tastes in choosing a song to cover, I think it would be enjoyable for you!
They even danced although they are a classical crossover quartet, when the song needs dance to be completed. Check MJ's Smooth Criminal by Forestella which they had to practice their moves 6 hours a day, if you are interested in their dance talent!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
ND MANY OTHER INTERPRETATIONS OF FORESTELLA. I HOPE YOU CAN CONTINUE TO ENJOY THEM.
I've loved this song since I first heard it and watched many reactions, but your analysis really blew me away!
Cheers!
❤❤❤❤Forestella ❤❤❤❤los mejores del mundo!
I have listened to, and watched, this song over and over. The details you pointed out WHY this song is so distinctive to me. Thank you for your elucidation. As always, I learned through your analysis. Thank you!
Nossa sua reacao/ analise foi incrível😊❤
Esse trabalho deles é de fato fantástico... e voce foi quem melhor fez um analise nao apenas musicalmente falando, mais notou detalhes que muitos nunca nem notaram... parabéns 🎉Ansiosa por mais reações e analises suas com o Forestella.
Adoraria poder te enviar um link raro que nao se acha no you tube... tenho ela em drive apenas do Forestella ... como poderia te enviar?
Você vai amar assistir e ouvir 😊❤
beijos do Brasil ❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much!
What is the video you want to send me?
@martaporto3038 Amiga, você abriu um portal aqui! 😂 Fiquei curiosa!
Perguntas: 1. É algum daqueles vídeos do Phantom Singer que não estão no YT ou não?
2. Se não é e você enviar para Sir Hairless ele vai poder reagir à ele?
💕🙏🏽✌🏽
@@ninalopesbrasil Tenho 3 dos vídeos originais em driver do Phanton singer 2 que não existem no you tube... ele poderá reagir .. ja enviei para alguns que reagiram e todos ficaram encantados ....kkkkk
@@SirHairless Existem 3 vídeos aos quais nao existe no you tube, eu os tenho em drive do Forestella, é do programa que fez o Forestella... 3 das 4 apresentações que eles fizeram quando se tornaram o Forestella.. é simplesmente MAGNÍFICO... das 4 só se acha 1 deles pelo you tube... por ser em drive gostaria de poder lhe enviar no privado... teria como? Voce vai ficar encantado com o que eles já faziam logo no começo e sintonia deles.
@@martaporto3038 Wow, sounds amazing! If you provide me with an email address I can contact you on, then I can reach out to you? I'd rather not post my email address here publicly
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this passionate reaction and fascinating analysis. You made me appreciate the song even more, which I didn't think was possible. 💚 The third part of the trilogy is still in the making. I'm immensely curious what it will be, but meanwhile, Save our Lives and Utopia work quite well as a two-parter, I feel. The apple here sort of turns into the universe at the moment of the bite, which leads back nicely to the beginning of Save our Lives, like a snake biting its own tail.
I very much recommend checking out Snow Globe which Forestella released last November and was composed by Kang Hyungho. It's my favourite.
Com seu conhecimento musical e sua análise 🤩, gosto mais ainda dessa grande obra de Forestella.
Continue seu excelente trabalho.
Abraços de Déborah,do Brasil!!
obrigado
Thank you for your wonderful review and analysis on this masterpiece of Forestella!
This is the 2nd part of their trilogy. You can see act 4~6 here. The 1st part was their Save our lives and you can find act 1~3 there. Some fans said the 3rd part is White Night, but I think White Night is out of trilogy because in the album description of KOOL which was released later than White Night, it was said "또한 'KOOL'은 세계수(World Tree) 3부작 시리즈 도중 발매하는 스핀 오프 싱글로, 세계관의 경계(Borderline)에 있어 이전 앨범의 여러 요소를 숨겨두었다. 이로 하여금 숨겨진 요소와 그 의미를 찾는 재미도 느껴볼 수 있을 것이다."
"KOOL came out in the middle of trilogy as a spin-off single." This is what I read, so I'm guessing the trilogy isn't finished yet.
The theme of the song was like Utopia for human beings might be dystopia for nature. And we need to find a way to co-exist because human beings are also a part of the nature.
In the end of Save our lives- their original song as well, previous of Utopia, you can see the World Tree was growing up. That concept of world tree of life is from Nordic myth's Yggdrasill so their concept and story is also a crossover of the biblical metaphors and nordic mythical symbols.. and they took the 4 elements idea of Aristotle in the Save our lives like each of Forestella is representing an element like the Fire, the Water, the Air and the Earth. Interestingly, their vocal ranges fit the elements for each too.
We can just guess and imagine stories, I think we can get everything clearer when the 3rd part is released.
The composer is a Dutch named Valensia who lives in Valencia in Spain. Forestella requested him to make an operatic part like Bohemian Rhapsody as Valensia was so strongly influenced by Queen, like to have made Queen tribute album himself. Actually his first demo version of Utopia was named Valencia, like Barcelona by Freddie Mercury and Monserrat Caballé, a hymn for Valencia. But Forestella changed the lyrics to suit their World Tree and Utopia concept. It's interesting that still we can find some names of local spots in Valencia, lol.
They had more than 17K takes and used more than 400 tracks for this one song. It took more than 2 months of recording as far as they said. As always they sound better in live, so check out their live performance in Mnet too!
This song is really addictive and became an earworm in my head like constantly
Thank you for your insightful reaction ... Hoping for more ... Forestella reaction
As a visual art graduate and storytelling fanatic I notice so many amazing things from the lyrics, narratives, visuals of the MV but clueless when it comes to sound/musical interpretation. Your extensive analysis on one of my favourite Forestella's pieces is very satisfying as you talk about it on multiple elements yet staying on the similar track as mine but much more in depth.
Please do Snow Globe too! The tune, lyrics, theme, their voices, absolutely lovely. Kang HH, the rocker/counter tenor composed it and the whole members were involved in writing the lyrics too.
I think you better check Forestella Queen's best songs compilation video on KBS Jeonju channel as soon as possible. That has the very first Bohemian Rhapsody by them, which made Forestella known to the world. You might already have had found Mystique encore concert live version, it's very dark so hard to see their face expression in the song there.
사랑하는 포레스텔라 리액션 감사합니다😊😊😊😊
Kang HyungHo can channel Freddy Mercury like no one else.
Thank you for this reaction and analysis! You pointed out things I had completely missed. FORESTELLA puts so much into their music!
Gracias por reaccionar a Forestella!!! ❤❤❤❤
goodness, i feel like you went more in depth than any other reactor to this song, and i loved it! i feel like i understand this song so much better than before, which makes me appreciate it and everyone who made it so much more! thanks for the reaction and analysis, can't wait for some more forestella reactions from you 😊
저도 잘 모르지만
해석력이 너무나 놀라울 정도로
뛰어나신것 같아요~👍
진심 감사드립니다 ~~~♡♡♡❤
Oh fabulous! Great analysis as always Sir H. Yes, I can’t wait for the final 7-9 either. I agree, Queen is evident in several places but I could also hear Sparks ….. “This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us” in the second act too.
엄청 신기하고 특이한 노래라고 생각했는데 포레스텔라 노래는 음악을 아는 사람일수록 더 즐기면서 들을수 있겠네요
Classical crossover ❤
Hey Sir! This is one of your analyses that I wish all people involved in the creation of the original art could also watch it, so that they would feel the satisfaction of experiencing true understanding and appreciation of their creation. It’s wonderful to follow your thinking process and being able to ‘see’ through your eyes (and ears) an epic musical journey like this presented by Forestella. Three times thank you, because I like this number☘
👍🏼 Couldn’t agree more!!
Thank you so much, Maria 😊
I really like your analysis.❤
Utopia is difficult, but it's new music, so it's really my favorite song now. It was good to be able to understand parts that I didn't know through your interpretation. 👍
Forestella covers various music regardless of genre in Forestella style, and prepares and creates their original songs.✨
Forestella is a group that always tries to find their own new music. So I love their beautiful music.❤
The creative geniuses who thought of this World tree concept and put the music and videos together have to be commended and encouraged. Forestella has proven that they can sing just about anything! The most perfect quartet. We don’t often come across geniuses like these in several decades. Let’s support and encourage them the best way we can.
After Utopia Forestella set aside the apple for a while and put out a spin off called “ KOOL” to cater to the people who like popular music and dance numbers.
But the folks who get their artistry and understand the complexity need to encourage them to bring out masterpieces like these! Those that will be studied for generations and stand the test of time!
I am foaming at the mouth for the final installment!!
You are the only reviewer that I’ve seen so far that has mentioned the segments of the song switching their order. I could have done a back flip when you said it. ❤
And people talk all the time about Hyungho’s Bb5 in Champions or Mingyu’s C6 in Magic Castle… but NO ONE mentions Doohoon and that beautifully effortless C#
The Composer that Forestella chose for this is Valensia, and I’m sure they hired him for his heavy Queen influence. (Have you seen Forestella’s cover of Bohemian Rhapsody? I remember you did Pentatonix, but not sure if you did these boys).
Other Forestella songs I would love to see you review:
Lazenca, Save Us
Inner Universe
Snow Globe (written by Hyungho)
And I will always recommend Cho Mingyu’s Balada de la Trompeta
Thank you! I'm just here to give some love to the bits no one else notices
I've not seen Forestella's "Bohemian Rhapsody" yet, but don't worry - it's on my list for a future reaction
Thanks for the other reco's!
Thank you so much for your reaction. Absolutely my favouriate and best one! Their Bohemian Rapsody will the very next one you need to check out! 100%
Wow 🤩 wow 🤩. This is amazing. . Sir… You seem to find out every single thing they mean and hide 🫣.
I hope Forestella could watch your reaction.
Thanks 😊. Love from Korea
Thank you for the reaction with a great analysis!
Eles são fenomenais 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! (Yes, I actually screamed!)
I watched this reaction twice!
YOU ARE SO GOOD IT HURTS 😭
I told you so much happens in this song, first time I listened I didn't know what to think about it but after listening to it several times, it grows on you, and actually sounds really nice once you know how it goes.
The level of details you caught here, both musically and with the video, man I watched this probably dozens of times if I am honest and some of the things you referred to I never noticed!
Like the girls with the faces covered, or the high sounds with two different instruments form high to low, also I never realized they inverted the order of two sections of the songs from Act4 to Act5, that's crazy. I'm mind blown!
You are my favorite reactor... I literally un-subbed from so many reactors cause after getting used to your level no one's reactions satisfy me anymore!
I hope they don't hate you cause since you appear I am pretty sure I am not the only one who feels this way.
GAAAAAHHHHH, know that my next request will be the third part of the trilogy so you can already write that down. AND I CAN'T WAIT.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the time you dedicated to this request and for your appreciation for all music, I like it or not, I love your passion for all genres and opportunity to all sounds. You are great! Don't change!
Lupe.-
Para mi también es el mejor analista que encontré hasta el momento. Honestamente sólo escucho y sigo a Forestella y a cuanto reactor suba un video de ellos en YT .
Definitivamente nadie se toma el trabajo tan en serio como Sir Hairless. Es muy profesional y maneja mucha información. Una mente muy lúcida, con un oído magnífico.
Sus expresiones faciales son fascinantes!!
Por más seguidores de su canal!!!!
Hablando de Utopia... qué Artistas inmensos son estos 4 cantantes... hay que ser muy talentosos para crear esta obra de arte. ❤
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Completely agree about Sir Hairless being the best analyst/reactor on YT although I understand that each reactor had his/her own method but Sir musical knowledge, the keen ear and didactic add so much pleasure to us to listen to him and to the artist.
I just would like to add a comment here: it seems to me - according to many fans ascertained - White Night is not part of the trilogy although it is in the same ideological line, let's say. Some fans have already left comments here explaining why and I have the same understanding. But it's definitely a matter of interpretation and White Night is a wonderful song. 💕🙏🏽
And thanks for the requests 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Haha glad you liked it This song is still blowing my mind; I've been listening to it on repeat since yesterday....when I work, when I walk to the shops, when I'm cooking. So many emotions it triggers in me...it is pure stimulation I think it's a masterpiece.
I also changed my rating of it 4 times today already I've finally reached my final decision which you'll see in my March monthly ratings video
Thank you so much for your kind words, and your continued support The third part of the trilogy isn't out yet, is it?
@@SirHairless Yeah it is not out yet. White is good for the next one. Another original.
Thank you for helping to help us understand the complexities of Forestella’s recordings. I can only speak for their English & Italian songs but their English & Italian is immaculate.. their words are clear, their faces & nuances make you feel that they understand every word they are singing & I feel that the musicians accompanying them need a mention too.
Maravilloso análisis de una obra de arte!!!👏👏👏
One of my absolute favorite pieces from FORESTELLA. And what vocals!! I don't think many vocalists can withstand this level (and they also perform it live)! It's like looking into a kaleidoscope - all small individual parts - but together a very complex reflection of our destructive selfish "fun society"" with all its consequences. "Utopia" never gets boring, there is always something new to discover. A very creative and passionate, crazy concept, coordinated down to the smallest detail. My greatest respect to everyone who worked together to create this audiovisual masterpiece. Also thanks to you and your amazing perceptive skills and first-class analysis.
Thank you.
Wow! What a song, I’m really quite happy you were confused by this song because I really feel a bit mad after listening 🤯
Fantastic analysis and thanks so much for breaking it down, you definitely hear so much more in the music than my ears can!
I’m looking forward to the next reaction 🎵💕
В творчестве Forestella присутствует мудрость сердца , именно это делает их гениальными!
Commenting in the middle of the video just so I don't forget but your indepth analysis on their song really opens my eyes to the amount of work that was put onto this song. It's not the easiest song to like but now I know at least what's behind everything. Thank you!!
Wow. I just binged all of your Forestella reactions. I usually skip the analysis of music by other reactors if it gets too long, but I stayed for every little second of your commentary. You have the amazing ability to entertain and educate at the same time!! Thank you so much for your reactions. I hope you will continue to react to Forestella. Personally, I can't wait for you to react to songs where Kang Hyungho's rock voice and Bae Doohoon's pop voice shines! For your convenience, here's a little list of their most popular cover performances:
• Bohemian Rhapsody
• Despacito
• Lazenca Save Us
• Time in a Bottle
• Champions (Champions League Anthem)
• We are the Champions (Queen)
• Shape of You
• Inner Universe
...and theres so many more, but these are my favs.
Tbh I am sad that they didn't finish the trilogy before Woorim's military enlistment... but I guess it gets me counting down the days until they are together as four again. The hype is real 😂
I love your forestella's reaction ❤
what a immersive analysis here is.
Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos con nosotros!! La actuación se ve de otra forma, más completa!!
가장 심도깊은 리액션이었어요 덕분에 더 감동을 느낄수있었어요
Gracias a Dios que hay personitas muy especiales en las nuevas generaciones que no se dejan atrapar por el mundo del facilismo y hacen maravillosas obras de arte. Y son dignos descendientes de Freddy Mercury, Michael Jackson, Mozart, los castratis, etc. Magnífica obra de arte auditiva y visual. gracias por otra magistral clase y es innegable que tu pasión es la guía para aprender a emocionarnos con buena música a diario. Gracias por enseñarnos y compartir. un abrazote de madre gigante.
This is certainly a complex piece! Amazing
Wawww Sir Hairless... me dejaste con la mandíbula caída!!
Tremendo análisis!!
Qué claro y didáctico sos para explicar! Tenés muchísimo conocimiento y un vasto vocabulario.
La verdad es que es un placer cómo vas desmenuzando cada detalle.
Me hiciste comprender y valorar aún más el enorme talento de Forestella .
Hace 3 días te pedí que incluyas a Forestella en comparación de covers... se me ocurre que Bohemian Rapsody es una pieza de arte que merece ser parte del proyecto.
Gracias por volver a analizar a Forestella!!!!
Saludos cordiales desde Argentina. ❤🇦🇷❤
Thank you so much! Forestella's "Bohemian Rhapsody" is on my list for a future reaction 🎶
@@SirHairlessHip Hip Hurrah! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Forestella wanted a "rock opera" like "Bohemian Rhapsody" and commissioned Valensia Clarkson, a Dutch multi-talent, very influenced by "Queen", to compose it. The vocalization is by FORESTELLA itself (directed by Kang HyungHo) and in coordination with Valensia. According to everyone who really appreciated each other, the vocalization was a long and very difficult but very successful process. In the first version, the composer referred to Valencia, the city in which he lived, but the lyrics had to be adapted to fit FORESTELLA's visions. (Migrants often get stranded around Valencia in Spain, known for its “party culture”, so a few “catchphrases” from the original form were appropriately adopted). I really hope that there will be further cooperation.
Thank you for the wonderful analysis and commentary on Forestella's song. 💞💜💚🧡❤

I think Edgar Alan Poe would have loved this and started writing a rather dark poem. Don't know why it comes to mind😂
Haha @@daleenengelbrecht4861 ! Another commenter mentioned Dante. Clearly this triggers the poetic part of our minds somehow
Finally!!! I've been waiting for you to analyze this song. I also relied on subtitles today. Indeed, it's very stimulating for someone who can analyze this much. When I first saw this song, when I heard it, I thought it was between heaven and hell, and it was very stimulating. I was busy listening to it, so I couldn't slowly open the MV, but when you analyze it like this, I also opened it. I think your analysis is the closest to the intention of the composer and FORESTELLA.
Waiting for another FORESTELLA video analysis..
I saw it. Thank you! 😍😍
Thank you!
Thank you for your in-depth reaction explanation. It's a song written and composed by Valencia who was influenced by Queen.
Some ELO vibes and Queen ( to me) Love the visuals!! I really think it is very cool!!!!
Wonder what Dante would think of this!
❤R/A🎼
ELO particularly at the end! I can hear the "please turn me over" about to play aha
Dante would probably say "I can see this being the theme tune of my inferno" Or paradiso

Musically fascinating and complex, I love it! I enjoy hearing your breakdown each time, I was thrilled to see you had reacted to this. It’s so much fun and challenging to sing along with, if you haven’t already seen Pentatonix Making Christmas, that’s fun too and musically fascinating. Mitch had commented that it was the most complicated song they had done, such fun. Thank you Sir Hairless!
He esperado tu reacción a esta canción, la cual es de mis favoritas 🎼💗 La canción es fantástica, me hace explotar la cabeza 🤯
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Still a bit in shock & amazement… what a massive project this was for them (AND you!).. who ever found this in their mind and put it to paper!?? A stunning piece (or trio of trio of pieces) musically and imagery. Felt like I was experiencing someone’s schizo-scherzo musical nightmare-dream of a psycho-drama with skillful yet confusing storytelling?? With that ending (prelude-tease), I’m already bracing for the finale. But not right away, gonna need a minute. I cannot begin to imagine how long this took you to R/A and then put into words for us… but all your work and insights are very appreciated. Just wow. Seriously, did they come up with this all themselves? Obviously with many resources. I need to pay closer attention to what I’m planning to listen to at night before sleep. Curious how long it took them from concept to completion. Amazing work, them and you also.
Haha what a great explanation! This one definitely took a lot longer than usual videos (pretty much twice as long!) was a lot in there. And I only managed to include probably around 25% of what I wanted to 😅
Apparently they worked with a Dutch composer; they had a concept, the composer created it, they made adjustments as necessary
@@SirHairless heh, glad you liked my poor midnight synopsis! The least of my thoughts about your R/A was the length of the video.. truly felt like it went by very quickly. I know you went above and beyond for such a complex piece, and you are very appreciated for it. And thanks for the background info.. now I’m wondering about this Dutch composer’s usual musical comfort zone!? Hmm. As always, looking forward to the next one
I just loved your reaction 💜💜💜

❤Pero que fantástico analisis, no esperaba menos de ti, gran trabajo este video y canción es excepcional una obra maestra en mi opinión, la tercera parte está inconcluso el video solo está la canción porque woorim se fue a cumplir su servicio militar pero es preciosa.. Gracias por tu tu gran y excelente reacción, espero con ansias el siguiente.❤ Saludos desde chile 💗🇨🇱
So, my friend, some of the previous commenters, explained who wrote this masterpiece. Would love to hear Forestella explain this in detail! Again, you, and your understanding is staggering! They had a phrase of “ Tierra Oscura”, which means dark earth, in Spanish. Could it be that Forestella’s “Utopia” REALLY IS NOT. Sounds too CHAOTIC and perhaps a touch macabre??? Just my own personal thought. What does anyone else think?
Según los chicos de Forestella, la canción hace referencia a la perspectiva de los humanos que viven en la "utopía" y la naturaleza que sufre la destrucción y es la "distopía", se supone que el tema va después de "save our lives" y la 3a. parte aún falta de realizarse...
Al parecer se trata de hacer una reflexión seria para concientizar sobre el daño que estamos haciendo al planeta y que es urgente detener haciendo cambios profundos de que es la única casa para todos, hay fuerte mensaje de la plegaria universal pidiendo que se salve nuestra vida en la tierra, luego viene utopía con los elementos que usamos y destruyen y estamos en espera de la continuación o conclusión...
Excelente análisis de este maravilloso e increíble cuarteto de Forestella que sorprende con sus voces magníficas que te llevan por un viaje increíble en cada interpretación y las emociones que comunican son bellísimas que enmudecemos para simplemente escucharlos..🎉❤🎉❤😅
