Top 3 songs of my life! I´ve never thought I would see a reaction to this. 😍😍😍
Awesome!! 😍👏🏻
UA-cam needs more Rhapsody reaction.
An incredible band that, without doing anything 100% new, managed to have their own sound and influence many later bands. Unfortunately, they never played live with an orchestra, but for their albums they have used them (I think from the 2nd onwards). It is very common that on every album there is at least 1 song (usually the closing track) that lasts more than 10 minutes and is the most epic song on the album (literally close your eyes and see swords clashing with dragons flying in the sky in the background).
I recommend the songs "Symphony of enchanted lands", "Gargoyles, angels of darkness" and "The mystic prophecy of the Demonknight". Or, if you want to focus more on the singer's voice (Fabio Lione, not the current one), "Lamento Eroico" is a song they usually play almost always live.
Oh, and also in the official video of "The Magic of the Wizard's Dream", the legendary Sir Christopher Lee (Dracula, Saruman, Count Dooku) appears singing, as he collaborated as narrator in many of the band's albums.
Oh, and while I don't recall the musicians confirming it anywhere, both the drums on this album and the previous one are credited to "Thunderforce". It has been said that it was a way to credit the future drummer of the band, Alex Holzwarth, who for contractual reasons could not appear in the credits with his real name; but the most widespread theory is that in reality Thunderforce is not a real person but a program, and that's why the incredible precision in the songs (which in no way is a demerit to Holzwarth, an INCREDIBLE drummer).
Esqueceu de citar Luca Turilli, que sempre foi a alma da banda junto com Staropolli. Mas Luca Turilli é um guitarrista e compositor a frente do nosso tempo. Toda a dramatização desse álbum e de Queen of The Dark Horizons tem muito dó Turilli. Trabalho galático desse guitarrista fenomenal.
I never thought I would find someone reacting to this Masterpiece, THANK YOUUUU!!
me neither...its a nice surprise
Hello Sabina. Thank you for this reaction. I hope you enjoyed it, even though the song is quite long, it's worth listening to. This Song is in my opinion a real treasure and masterpiece.
It was such a journey, I was very impressed with all of the different parts and it made me again question why they are not more famous!
@@sabina1118 ¿Famous? Christopher Lee sings with the band!!!! jajajajaja... ¿Not Famous? well the problem with the band, is the EGOS... like too much bands, and now they are TWO Rhapsodys jajaja...
its satanic dragonworship.
Christofer Lee is a known satanist. Please search Jesus Christ
Another superb epic song by Rhapsody is Gargoyles, angels of darkness. Very different, but just as fantastic as this one, if not better.
Maybe their peak. 19 fucking minutes.
Awesome 🙂 Fell in love with Rhapsody on their first album Legendary Tales. You should listen to all their albums, its a long big amazing story, Emerald Sword Saga 😃❤
I Can only imagine after this journey!!
@@sabina1118 believe me, i have all original cds, they are from italy. rhapsody prime was AMAZING
Why have I never heard of this band? I really must get out more.🤪 I love symphonic metal, which is generally Northern Europe in its origins. This band however are Italian..the fever is spreading…thank God there is no known antidote. A little more emphasis on the orchestra content. However, the power is still evident and is not lost within the symphonic arrangement. Once again, we Earthlings have new music (at least for me) to enjoy. What an outstanding piece of music, and what a band. Sabina, an example here of not needing any visual reference…let the music do the talking, as per your reaction. 👏👏
To be fair, it might be technically the most important band in the history of the genre in terms of the sheer quantity, scale and intricacy of classical, opera, symphonic, film score, baroque, chamber music etc introduced into metal. Before them, bands just needed half a keyboard with string effects to be considered symphonic (to the extent that the term even existed), and then Rhapsody came and raised the bar. Already back in the day, the young members of Nightwish would say in interviews that they were listening to a lot of Rhapsody. Try listen to their discography, at least from Legendary tales (the first one) all the way to Into the legend (the last one with the original singer). Also the side project stuff by the main guitarist/composer is great, both the early stuff similar to Rhapsody (under the name Luca Turilli) and the later, more developed and ambitious stuff (under the names Luca Turilli's Rhapsody and Turilli/Lione Rhapsody). Career-wise, though quite famous, they've had the double disadvantage of not being female-fronted, therefore attracting less of the more pop-leaning fandom of female fronted symphonic bands, and of their lyrics bearing a non negligible amount of cheesiness due to their not being native nor proficient speakers (and to be fair, certain unironic fantasy lyrics were considered much more palatable in past decades, since heightened sensitivity to cheesiness still wasn't really a thing). Still, if you liked this one you might really enjoy their discography at large, give it a try!
@@GloriaVictisDiesIlla Thank you so much for the feedback. I will certainly take on board what you have suggested and make it a mission to explore the music you have suggested. Sadly, (or perhaps fortunately) I can recall various bands experimenting with either a string section or a small orchestra and hailing their achievement as ground breaking. For me it was a distraction. Today however, we are spoilt by the musical abilities of bands who truly are pioneers of symphonic metal. Long May it continue.
I like how you put your thoughts on screen and allowed the song to play uninterrupted.
Give highlander (the one) or lost in the depths of me by lost horizon.
One of the best songs i've listened in all my life!
🇧🇷 Aqui no Brasil e curtindo muito o seu canal. Admirando demais a sua beleza e seu talento.
🙏🏻
One of the most epic songs ever recorded
Love this so intense. See you never know what you will come a cross. Thanks for your reactions.❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
OMFG who ask to do that epic Rhapsody Song? This album that i like so much is like the underrated one (mabe because it's 5 songs for a 42 minutes album)! 🤩🤯😎🤘I think the fact that they are not bigger is only because the metal bands that sings about Dragons, Rage & Glory (generally in the Power Metal subgenres) is seen as cheesy. For myself even if now i prefer the Melodic Death Metal subgenres, i could never stop seeing Rhapsody like pure art. From there debuted to the contemporary albums, they really are master of there craft. It was in the first phase of my metalhead journey, this bring me back so much good memories. Thank you so much for this reaction!
Fan of them since 2000! If you liked that journey, you should listen to the song Gargoyle, angels of darkness! It will take you on a ride! Have you ever wonder how you can mix flamenco and metal? They did! And they throw kind of middle eastern rythme to their solo! A must to listen if you like them!
🤘🏼🗿 Nice, you should also listen to this song: Rhapsody - Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness.
Yeah, the final of Emerald sword saga is such epic thing...
We all had or even still have doubts about how perfect a concert with this symphony would have been.
Rhapsody is the name I gave to my 600i in Star Citizen :D
So many epic Rhapsody songs but this one will always be my favorite. Never stop getting goosebumps!!!
Watching you reacting to this marvelous and unique song of Rhapsody made my soul fly!😊 This is one of my favourites and since it is so true that Rhapsody is not for everyone, when you experiment such an extasis on listening and living this piece of art, it is then so painful when you see yourself not able to share that great feeling. Specially because of that, every expression on your face was a deep touch of happiness in my heart! Thanks!
This definately deserves its own Film and Movie in the Theatres🎬
love this song!!! Thanks for your reaction Sabina!!
I know this isn’t a new video but this song also uses a bunch of samples from Goblin, an Italian Synth Rock band that made a bunch of scores for Italian horror films! This song especially has a lot of parts from Phenomena!
listening to it now after so many years is always exciting, it gives goosebumps. I always have the original CDs, Italian like them. I hear them from their beginnings, a soundtrack to our D&D adventures. the first albums are simply phenomenal and full of epicness
A fantastic journey!!!
As a Rhapsody fan, I can recommend many songs but you can start with The dark tower of Abyss, Emerald sword, rage of the winter etc
Thank you for reacting this song!
What a beautiful reaction! This is one of my very top songa❤️🔥
I've known Rhapsody for a little more than a year now... They are BYFAR my favorite band ever! I actually believe the album this song you just reviewed is from is when the band started losing their UMPH and identity, for their music became more bland to me and the melodies started getting less narly. I'd be glad to see you create another reaction on the Dawn of Vicotry album-which has got to be their prime time album. Even their first album has mighty great songs that need to be uncovered by your reactions. Your reactions are pretty good lol and genuine
I'll be here every time you react to this talented and legendary band!
love it!
Recommended song (dense for analyzing) "satan the cacodemon" from deicide.
"Lord of the rings" from blind guardian
"The bard song in the forest" blind guardian
"Let the gods decide" manowar
"Under jolly roger" running wild
King of kings" manowar
Nostradamus" judas priest
Number of the beast" iron maiden
"Through fire and flames" dragonforce
"Desert rain"/"angels holocaust" from disc "stormrider" from "iced earth band"
Keeper of the seven keys (helloween)
To glory (disc invincible, group "two steps from hell")
The crown and the ring"manowar
Future world"helloween
Beyond the black hole"gamma ray"
very good reaction 🤘
Thanks!
Epic metal I ever heard of 😍🤟🤘
I’m glad!!
@@sabina1118 yeah❤️🌹
master piece!
But... this is the soundtrack of PHENOMENA, old horror movie by Dario Argento another soundtrack masterpiece is PROFONDO ROSSO. bye sabina and good woman day. 😁😊😉
Yes it is !!!
If Tuomas is the Metal Mozart, than is Luca Turilli the Metal Beethoven or Bach?
agree
Maybe
Those duelling guitar and syth solos are a thing of beauty aren't they? ^^ And to consider, this song is just the midpoint in the album.
As for why they're not bigger...I think it was just the music industry at the time. Even among other metal they were considered fairly niche. That said, this is just my own memories from around then then and hence anecdotal. Who knows, maybe all the metalheads you remember from back then loved Rhapsody? In which case I'm kind of jealous, but ah well.
I suggest Rhapsody's The kiss of life, a beautiful song from the last album that records the vocals of Fábio Lione
Hey Sabina, i was never a guy which wanted to much audience. Its great, that we have people like you, who are able to perfrom "reactions" soooo great. Thanks so much. I have really one song i would recomend. I now you had already some Avantasia songs, but this song is "my" favorite. ;-) "The Great Mystery". Really really hope you want to try it. I know you have a lot of songs, but it would be a pleasure to see your reaction to this amazing song. :-) All the best Markus ak Meggs
Kudos great reaction! In regards to why they aren't bigger or more popular, I think a big reason in general is that people don't have the patience to listen to an epic like this where the structure of the song isn't as streamlined and easy to listen to. Imagine trying to sell a 14 minute song to a radio station lol RoF is very popular within its subgenre and the fanbase is borderline ravenous, but as for the general population I think you'd get more side eyes than head bops. Rock on and cheers!
El intro se vuelve más épico cuando suena el tema de la película Phenomena de Dario Argento
Rhapsody and Luca will remain with me till my end, theyre that good (ps. i recommend something cool from power metal- Gamma Ray - Somewhere out in Space, an old German band)

Always listened to this band when i was playing World Of Warcraft Vanilla back in the day. Good times! :D Cheers!
The good old times. I also listened to them, while playing wow. Do you know this video : ua-cam.com/video/714LCsN9g7E/v-deo.html ?
I recommend that if you have time, listen to the complete emeral sword saga to understand the story, that is if there are 5 albums. if you dare you will enter a wonderful medieval movie
Holy Canolli, this scared the shit out of me... This song is currently my absolute favourite songs, thats why i was searching for some other videos about it on UA-cam.. Well, I start the video and one of the first things I hear is my name said out loud.. (My really uncommon where I live, so i really never hear my name like that...) And for someone to just straight up say it, while the video is about my current favourite song is just baffling to me... what a coincidence.
Ah yes, Rhapsody, only one of the best musical experiences in human history for those who care to appreciate their work. Hope you listen to Unholy Warcry and The Frozen Tears of Angels.
Hola Sabina, desde Chile!!
Nunca pensé que harias una Reaction de esta canción, te lo agradezco.... me encantaron tus comentarios 🤘🏼
the best song, ever
You must to try with band "Epica" if you liked this one...hugs Sabina! 😍
I love epica! I have reacted to them 😍
Hey guys, did you know that the song was written based on a theme from Claudio Simonetti's Goblin for the movie "Phenomena," directed by Dario Argento?
Captions are the best choice for it here.
🇨🇴 Grettings from Colombia Sabina 🇨🇴
Wonderful reaction.
It's one of my favorite songs by my favorite power metal band. It would be spectacular if, over time, you reacted to:
symphony of the enchanted lands
Gargoyle angel of darkness
symphonia ignis divinus from Luca Turilli' Rhapsody and Prometheus.
And finally, Theather of the salvation by Edguy. 🙏🇨🇴🥲
Rhapsodyyyy 🤘🤘
Symphony of enchated lands.......next time.......🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹💪💪
Rhapsody OF Fire
listening to song shadows of death with Rhapsody of fire 🥰
Сабина я тебя люблю❤😘
❤️
I had a project called opera back in 91 we were doing the same as rhapsody orchestrations throughout our arrangements really epic ultra classical cross between queensryche and rising force with gram bonnet style vocals a little head of time I think unfortunately our guitarist and music composer got chicken shit and quit when we got some interest .
Great song love the band also check out adagio fairyland thy majestie and pagans mind
Omaggio a Phenomena film (D. Argento) Claudio Simonetti (Goblin).

Please Sabina, i need your reaction to HI ren, by ren. It's related to your hello to other people. It's an art piece , one of the best of this times. Thanks Sabina.
You should check out a band called Savatage it's like Opera heavy metal and I believe they're called the Trans-Siberian Orchestra also I think I know they're connected somehow
Beautiful girl. So so cute
Tha Band Is called Rhapsody of Fire not on fire. Zero effort award goes to you dude.
