      Best cover of this song. Dan is fantastic. Tarja would be impressed.
      Need to hear more of him with Erik Gronwall. These two have unbelievable range. Wish Dan would get back in the studio. Agree with you, Viking, hearing Dan do more operatic covers.
      Happy New Year, Viking and everyone on the site.

    THIS is my absolute favourite Dan Vasc cover and I absolutely adore it. I heard his first and I prefer his over Nightwish (Sorry Nightwish). His rich and deeper tones give this song the icy feel needed to leave its impression long after the last note has faded.❤️🤘✝️🦉🌹

    LOVED your reaction, as always - it was very clear the song hit you hard a couple of times.
    I have a feeling, Dan, in recovering from severe depression, has looked death straight in the face several times in his life, which could be why he can convey the feeling of these songs so deeply.

    This boy is a true combination of talent, hard work and determination!!!!
    It will literally be the song you sing and pull you into your world.
    Dan's music absolutely blew me away. He seems to have a very good head on his shoulders and a wonderful sense of humor. A special young man with a special wonderful voice.
    Many are surprised by the fandom of the older age group. I consider intrusive, violent fans, regardless of age group, to be jerks!
    I just quietly note that I listened to metal music when He was just a pleasant thought to his mother.
    I love what you do and how you do it! i respect him for that!!!!

Every part of this song is just hauntingly beautiful &, towards the end, during those higher parts, Dan sometimes seems to even have a bit of a "Geoff Tate" sound to me. (I think Dan could actually do a great Queensryche cover, too.) Unfortunately, I worked 13 hrs today & missed everything live, but I loved every bit of your reaction, Viking. Until next time then.😊

    Happy New Year, Viking! I really like the partnership that you decided to go with! That's some beautiful craftsmanship, from the photos. I love that kind of chunky and bold metalwork and it looks like high quality jewelry. I'll definitely be checking them out! So... on to Mr. Vasconcelos. This cover by Dan was my introduction to Nightwish and I was mesmerized by the song and by Dan's interpretation of it. I know what you mean about feeling the music because I'm very much the same way. I enjoy the lyrics to many songs and they can sometimes move me, regardless of who is singing them. But... not every artist can make you feel them right down to your toes, in the way that Dan does. So many of his covers leave me feeling the emotions that he brought to them, for hours or even days, depending on the song and the feelings that it awakened in me. I think I must have watched a couple of dozen reactions to this song after hearing it for the first time and even though its been a couple of months since the last time, the goosebumps still reared their oddly satisfying little heads. I assume they always will, just as with so many of Dan's pieces. Thanks for your insightful and heartfelt reaction, as always. You are definitely one of my very favorite reactors on this platform! Much love from a very, very chilly New England, USA! 💛😊
