- Опубліковано 2 кві 2024
- Finally… here is the 2nd clip from the Ayreon ‘Live Beneath The Waves’ DVD/BluRay! I picked the song The Day That The World Breaks Down because it’s one of my favorites and also it features so many of the talented singers. We never thought we could pull off this complicated song in a live setting, but it seems like we did it! Let me know if you agree… enjoy :-)
Hugs from Holland,

🤍🖤🤍🖤 👑🤍🖤🤍🖤
Great so see you back in the main cast!
OL is Oliver Palotai?
veni para argentina simone we miss you!!
This performance was EpicAmazing Simone! Thank you so much and god bless you!
Marcela Bovio should be known worldwide....she is SO GOOD!
Anneke proved it is allowed to smile in metal
Somehow when Anneke enters the stage, you feel the world will be alright, if even for this moment. :)
How she crushed it as the Diplomat warms my heart
YES!!! I don't know how that woman has that power. A combination of her smile and her voice. It's amazing.
That made me a lot happier than it should have, agreed! Now if we can only get Devin Townsend to take a part one day, my life will be complete.
@@lananiella He did. He was Rage in The Human Equation
@@maciejzettt Thank you, I will look that up!
Marcela and Irene together are such a dream sound! Oh, and Maggy absolutely nailed it too
Pity Floor could not make it this time, but there was no shortage of talent on that stage. Brittney covered for Floor in some of the other songs and was amazing too.
So good!
At least we got some Jansen in there!! Way to go, Ladies! Nailed it!
@@chadbennett7873 It is a tall order to do what Floor does to the listener with sound, but to be honest, I didn't feel like I was missing something here. My heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in making this possible
Yep, it was "Build your own Floor Jansen. Some assembly required" but it did the trick 🙂
Mike was the perfect choice for TH-1 since he's clearly not human. Damn.
I don't really like his voice...but damn, he's good.
My utmost respect for all the people who came together to fulfill the seemingly (but apparently not) impossible task of bringing this phenomenal monster of a track to the live stage!
Happy Birthday dear Master Arjen Anthony Lucasson 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is it his bitrthday, too? Jeepers so many people with my bday.
This was amazing by the way. Arjen is ridiculous at constructing epic shows. Also all the musicians are totally into it so it is fun to watch.
@@mathrocker Mine's tomorrow..also 1960 though. 😊
@@mathrocker
Happy birthday 🎁🥳🎉🍹

Happy Birthday 🎉🥳🎂🎁
@@Osi-ok8qs Aw gee, THANKS bro !..🤘🤘☀❗
I still remember how all the audience was stunned when the first notes were played that day.
And I love how Timo and Marcel shared the guitar parts
Same, I never thought that they would have done it.
Dude, that was the most awesome moment ever! I 😂
My girlfriend claims she has never heard a sound so high pitched and so loud coming out of me when this started, and I believe her 😅
I was awestruck for a moment. I never imagined they would play this masterpiece. We all knew it from the first few notes we were in for an absolute treat.
Damien Wilson doing low-register ballad-singing is like honey for the soul.
Damien opening his mouth is always a delight to my ears
Hansi with just the BIGGEST smile. He's having the time of his life!
Many years ago, I was crew cheif mainstage at Bloodstock Open Air (2009iirc), Blind Guardian played and I just had so much fun with Hansi and the band, I spent the set side of stage with one of the guitar techs dualing air guitars and having a blast.
Hansi spent most of the day sat over at the smaller second stage, supporting the upcoming artists and generally being a thoroughly lovely human
The best thing about Hansi is that he doesn't look like a rock god. If you were told he had a day job teaching secondary school or as an estate agent, you wouldn't be surprised.
@@paultgreen one of my stage hands thought he was their monitor engineer, Hansi went along with it for a while, before stepping onto the stage for their set 😂 after their set he arranged for a crate of beer to be set aside for the stage hands with a note:
"to the stage hands, you are the real rock stars here. I'm just a nerd who sings songs about fantasy worlds, and as I look like a sound engineer, I can always put my hand to that!
Keep being rock stars, the festival can't happen with you hardworking men and women,
With love, Hansi - Blind Guardian frontman, and novice monitor tech"
@@keleighshepherd345 haha. Absolute quality! Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Rediscovering Ayreon--and in particular, obsessing over the groove under the "I must have been blind" part (8:20) of this song--helped me to get through 262 extremely lonely days of lockdown in Melbourne, Australia. Being in the crowd in Tilburg for 01011001 and then hearing it played live for the first time felt like the closing of a difficult circle in my life. Thank you, Arjen. Your "cheesy" music means so much more to people than you probably realise. Thank you, Arjen's on-stage friends, for helping to bring it into the real world.
Yes, that groove is killer!
@@bombasstard and the quick little guitar runs at 9:03 and 10:16 are 😘👌
Not sure if it's the apocalyptic nature of the song, but I also played it on repeat during the Covid years and listening to it today it still gives me lockdown chills.
Keep pushing man, agree with you, that groove, the voice, all in that part is perfect, all the album.
This should come with a choking hazard warning!
I was just taking a sip of a drink when Michael Mills said "Sing along if you know the words" :-)
That was as subtle as hilarious
Had me giggling like an idiot, what a dude.
WE NEED MORE MARCELA AND IRENE LIVE! That's for sure. These ladies are such amazing singers. Such great singers overall, such great musicianship. The joy, the passion they give us. Simply amazing. And yes... I again teared up...^^
absolutely true! I have thought the same :o)) Awesome singers!
Agree!
Totally agree. They are wo of the greatest voices on that crowded stage and are stuck singing back-up for the majority of the show. I don't get it.
I concur.
@@visualizeprog2874 I think back-up singer for an Ayreon Show is very difficult to sing. Not anybody can do this.
Maybe the most important singers :o)
Marcela and Irene showing off at the end. Not "just" backing vocalists. Maybe the most important singers of Ayreon shows. They can be heared most part of the whole show and they really bring everyone elses performances alive. Either one could easily lead any world class band.
Totally agree with that goosebumps and tears overhere
Marcela leads Stream of Passion and, like a magazine said, "she sent symphonic metal more to the south". Also, she Is one of the best and more prolific composers I've known
And she's beautiful and sexy 😍@@RuizVicentello
@@RuizVicentelloShe also fronts Black Horse, White Horse and isn't she vocal teacher as well?
Irene matches her sister Floor. Of course they are different, but equally talented singers and performers.
Mike Mills is freaking surreal. That man is a musical god.
Who is not in Ayreon?? Arjen pulls the best out of every singer and musician in his projects!!
@@Frantiqdrummer Of course, Ayreon is an astronomical project in terms of talent. However, even among these geniuses Mills stands out because of his creativity and execution. The fact that his section in this song was entirely his idea is astounding. According to Arjen he just sent him the lyrics: "01011001" and told him to go for it, and the result was one of the best intermissions in an Ayreon song ever, and that's saying something.
Can't go wrong kicking it off with Damian.
Lovely job by everyone. Marcel killed the solo and it was awesome to see Irene and Marcela share Floor's part.
Another amazing performance and video.
Don't you just love Marcel Coenen, he makes everything look so easy !!
Nailed that solo. Perfection!
@@StormdriverOne I wonder if he also hates practicing? 😀
He is one of those natural born guitar players. Amazing talent and a nice guy also
That guitar solo was clean af ! he practiced well unlike someone who hates doing it XD
Shots fired XD
Well said. I was thinking that Arjen got his birthday wish -- he didn't have to do the guitar solos. [grin]
Hahaha!
And a very Happy Birthday to Arjen 🎂
I NEVER ever thought this could be done live so smoothly. The complexity, the number of artists, the harmonies (Michael Mills' part was just crazy hard). The amazing solos - guitars, violin, flute, keyboards... I just missed Tommy Karevik, still believe his performance can't be bested (or maybe I'm too much in love with his way of singing, though this performer did great as well). And what about Marcela and Irene at the end? They left me FLOORed (pun intended 😂). Thank you mr Lucassen 🥰🥰
"This performer" is Daniel Gildenlow, one of the most gifted singers (and musicians) of the century. I remember him saying he had the flu when he got back from the shows. Not sure how affected he was, but he's sung far harder stuff than the lines he sings here throughout his career.
@fresquitotv love Daniel and he nailed Tommys part. Over the years I've gotten to meet and know the members of The Flower Kings but unfortunately Daniel stopped touring with them years ago so while I saw him perform with them I never got to meet him.
@@fresquitotv Never heard of him, but he was good. Although Tommy's impossible to beat (for me).
@@ChrisPage68Do yourself a favor and check out Pain of Salvation. Not knowing your tastes, I'll play safe and recommend you the song "Iter Impius" ;-)
I think Daniel sounds great here! Hard to replace one of my favorite Ayreon parts in one of my fave songs, but on Sunday he did it justice. The entire cast did.
The Next Full Album that should be done Live in its entirety from Ayreon should be The Source for sure !!!!
I concur. Looking fwd to Sept 2025! 🤘
On one hand I agree, on the other - Theory of Everything.
I have a hunch that you are right. Would love to hear the middle part of the double LP live (Aquatic race to Planet Y). With no more pregnancy, it should be a more original cast too.
Every album should be done live 😎⚜️💚
👍May the Tall Hippie Dude see this and take notes!
Was so happy to see Marcel up there, shredding his brains out... and just to think just last year we almost lost him! LONG LIFE AND GOOD HEALTH TO YOU, MARCEL!!!
Tom and Anneke doing a duet would be AMAZING to listen to live!
Arjen I am begging you, on my knees, get Daniel Gildenlow on an album again! I am rediscovering my love for Pain of Salvation right now and without you they would not be in my live
I remember the absolute shock I felt when I heard the first few notes and realized they were going to play this song live. I legitimately thought it never would or even could be performed live. I traveled 16k kilometers (round trip) to be at this show and I would do it again in a second. Thanks Arjen and everyone involved. It was magical.
16,000 Kms/second, that is meteorite impact speed!
We were so blessed that Floor have sister who sing as good as Floor herself. Please, put Irene more on leading vocal, she have such a rich voice, she deserves her own album. If she willing to, ofc.
I can only beg of all the people here commenting on Mike, please please pleeaaaaasssseeeee listen to his own music more, he deserves so much more support!!!! Toehider for life! 🤘🏻
Who is this Toehider? I only know Toad Hirer!
@@LordAJ12345 ah, a person of culture!
OK :o) I did it yesterday evening. Today I will buy some of his stuff! Thanks for pointing that out!
Australia!
It is bizarre... so pleased with the wonderful singers and band... but tears start to flow when Marcel Coenen delivers his solo. So composed, so precise. Musicwise he can steer a 747 through any storm. ❤❤
Daniel covering a Tommy part is something I never imagined I’d hear, and it’s so cool that I just did.
Yes! I saw they did this live… and I doubted if anyone could do Tommy’s parts justice, but I was super impressed that Daniel indeed did the part impressively well! Kudos to him!!
And we all know Michael Mills made his own outfit! LEGEND!!!
Really?? I dont know that. Is there everything that he cant do? :o)
Not a single mobile phone in sight. What a testament to the respect and love we have for this collective!
They specifically asked not to film at the start of the show (as it was being professionally recorded). There were still a handful of people who did during the show I was there.
yeah, people were definitely using their phones, but they were pretty respectful about it, at least where I was standing
People probably have
But I always have a question
Why…what does looking through a lesser version of visuals do to help you enjoy it
Never recorded 1 single show
Cause im there live
I dont the feel like im looking through my phone watching it..while I’m LIVE there
I think I took about 4 photos through the whole gig, and I'd say most people stood around me did the same. With exception of the bootlegs that are on UA-cam, I think most people were very respectful of Arjen's desire to have a video without a sea of screens.
mandatory no phone
Well, that was phuqing awesome!
If the tall hippie düde happens to read this: you’re the GLOAT! (Greatest LUL of All Time)😂👍
Any day you wake up to more Ayreon videos is a good day.
Oh my love Marcela!!! Viva México!!!
Por favor favor, una banda ya para Marcela e Irene, qué bien suenan las dos y qué buen feeling hay entre ellas. Pura magia!
Just found this… Wow this is phenomenal music! I dont know what to say……. Where the hell have i been???!

Welcome. Usually Ayreon is magic and somebody else has to show you where it is so congrats on finding it on your own :)
@@TenZrzutFunny thing is, i have only recently found out about manifestation and this whole universal thing with frequency and all. Spiritual awakening maybe??? Idk yet about that but finding this was definitely shall we say ”divine timing”.
@@paulmcdowell6886Thank you!
Looks like Marcel doesn't mind a little guitar practice, because he NAILED that last solo!
John Jaycee Cuijpers nailing every part you throw at him once again. I am in awe!
John Jaycee Cuijpers is absolutely amazing, he deserves so much more recognition! Another fantastic discovery for me, thanks to Arjen, thank you ❤
Thanks for your kind words 🤘
@@johnjayceecuijpers9442 Wow you are here in the comment section. Love your work. Amazing Singer. Rock on !! 🤘
It’s hard to play favourites in this lineup, but Jaycee really eats and leaves no crumbs. Best male power voice up there!
I was so impressed by how close he got to Tobi Sammet's style for that section! Tobi's voice is not an easy one to mimic, but Jaycee really got his wide vibrato just right, but still sounded natural like he wasn't trying to force someone else's voice. That's a lot harder than it sounds!
It was an amazing show! I actually teared up when Anneke came on stage, my goodness I love that woman.
Lol, same for me !
Happened to me to. Crazy the effect Anneke has
Hola yo igual, me emocione mucho cuando ella aparecio, mi cantante ,favorita de todos los tiempos, saludos desde El Salvador.
Mike Mills Bravo!!!
(random one liners)
"Sparkles?" (yes, the world breaks down with sparkles... are we surprised?)
Maggie is so damn versatile !!
The Angels do the Best Starblade Choir !!!!!!
Arjen DIDNT Have To Practice !!!! (thank you Marcel)
Marcela and Irene, Irene and Marcela ... they can break down my world, any time, any place, any song. Just flawless., that's all. Flawless.
I so love Anneke.
Happy Birthday maestro, Arjen. Yes, everyone nailed it and Marcel saved you from practicing! Really, really looking forward to the Blu-ray, now. Have a fantastic day great inspirer 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you Arjen for this. When Anneke started with „this is not over“ I literally cried from being overwhelmed by joy. Not many artists and not many songs can do that for me.
Same here man. The whole performance is surreal.
I am at work just here for lunch... And UA-cam proposed me this one!!! Yrsss!!!
Well, that was sick af. The joy on people's faces. Incredible. 👏👏👏
We were there and man.. it was great! Pre-ordered the BD of course. Can't wait for this one to be performed again in '25 at Ayreon's 30th Anniversary when - apart from the greats featured here, both Floor and Tommy may be present. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
I agree and it was a great honour for Irene, she did it very well
OMG ! Once again mind blown ! They all are INCREDIBLE ! I was wondering who would step in Floor's feet ... and then Irene and Marcella's ending came. AMAZING ! Another masterpiece from Monsieur Lucassen ! And once more ... how I wish I was there 😥!
01011001 01011001 01011001 01011001
When I first saw this pop up I hesitated, how could this be done live?? Then I thought Arjen, Joost and Aryeon, just hit the damn play button!!! Thank you to all involved.
I was sooo nervous when I saw that there was a "The Day That The World Breaks Down" live version because its one of my favorite Ayreon songs and I was tought about its complexity and how I never had expected it to be played live... and then, every moment watching the video I was expecting something to not go so well and I simply had a great blast the whole video because it went so perfect the whole time! Amaaaaazing!!!
This song was the first I have ever listened from Ayreon, and fell in love with his music, and the whole concept, how he makes his wonders.
I love how you pull so much talent from around the world and give it its moment to shine. You are a very lucky hard working man. Just wish the industry was rewarding you properly....like the old days but I guess we are where we are. This is just incredible, superb and awe inspiring all in one.
Daniel is a monster. Amazing to see the original Astronomer!
Irene and Floor have very similar voices. Irene sounded great here! I don't want to leave out Marcela either, she just brings it every performance.
Agreed. Floor did such a violent belt in the last note. Who but Irene could have sung it like that?
Brittney Slayes was right offstage!
But, yeah, Irene was/is great.
This is the first Ayreon material I have ever seen or listened to. I can honestly say it’s the greatest thing I have ever witnessed. Respect to all involved in this!
I smile when I see Magali, great to see she's here. Then Anneke just made me smile bigger! 😄😄👍👍🤘🤘
Happy Birthday Arjen! I discovered Ayreon a couple months ago and I've been addicted ever since, thank you for the amazing music
Ayreon foi quem me apresentou as maiores vozes que conheço. E quando a Anneke canta Ilumina tudo ao redor.
Ik was (bijna) vergeten hoe speciaal dit was en hoe het voelde om het ter plaatse mee te maken, maar deze fantastische video zal er voor zorgen dat DAT NOOIT zal gebeuren.
OH ja nog gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag “ouwe” nog drie jaar en je ken met pensioen. 😉🤪
One of the most sick riff ever
First minute and I'm already wondered by Damian's rendition and emotion. I'm glad he's in all of the shows so far.
The endless number of layers and complexity in this song but also in this performance of this song are still stunning. Pure genius
Wow, wow, WOW, woW !!!!!! Woooow :D
Incredible song, incredible musicians, incredible singers, incredible quality, incredible EVERYTHING
Thank you Arjen
I will always be amazed with AA Lucassen work. Once again tears dropped after listening to all these artists performances. It is just beautiful, the amount of talent required to sound this good, so cohesive so in sync. This is on my bucket list, I got to see of this shows life.
But the most important thing in my opinion, is it that you can tell that they are enjoying themselves a lot while they performed, and that's is transferred to the audience.
So grateful to follow this band and AAL, big way to keep the great music alive.
I think this is what comes across most - the positive vibes from the stage. It feels like even though almost every person there is metal royalty, there are no egos and they're all enjoying each other as much as the audience.
Just came came home after a nice workout. I took a shower, got myself a cup of coffee and sat down to relax. First thing I see is this.. Now I am so hyped again that I have plenty of energy to repeat that workout!. Lets goooo!.
Thank you Marcel for nailing the solo Arjen's so proud of but would hate to have to practice to play it live!
Beautiful performance. The ending, with Marcela and Irene's new vocal harmony, made me cry a little.
My condition isn’t sufficient enough to go to this concert but man that’s a waste. This is the pinnacle of metal. What a beautiful performance and everyone look beautiful.
The studio is prepared for the evening 😀🤘🏻
Uploading now
Ayreonauts Forever!
WHAT AMAZING MEMORIES !!!! ONE OF THE BEST CONCERT I HAVE EVER BEEN TO...
Damn! Nailed the live version. Can't wait to get the BluRay of this show!
I’ve waited for Floor at the end but Irene and Marcela killed it. ❤️❤️❤️
It was soo cool when they rocked this track live, I never thought this was possible on stage but Arjen and his amazing crew did it and it was perfect. It is still my favourite track ever and I was so happy to have been there to experience this. Alarm is set, I just know that this will be the highlight of the day. Thanks Arjen 😊
OMG what a group of dazzlingly talented musicians. Those female vocals ❤❤❤❤❤
My god it's unbelievably good - Jaycee can do anyone, what a talented singer.
Just brillant. Every artist was incredible, Marcela and Irene make such an amazing duo, Maggy is incredible... I'm still crying tears of joy, specially with Mike Mills' section, it's just impressive. Seeing it now in UA-cam isn't less spectacular than seeing it live :P
Marcela & Irene are always impressive. Two of the greatest voices in prog or metal. Must admit I had a very low opinion of Maggy's performance on the "Ayreon Universe" dvd from a couple years back - but she seems much improved here and shows she can do something more than just the gravely voice.
This makes my eyes FLOOD! Oh I am so glad I found this creation back in the early 2000's. This is what music is all about, talent from across all areas of the world.
Happy birthday Arjen
Sparkling Anneke 😍
So many musicians to wrangle but Arjen manages to out do his studio albums live every time. Amazing.
Perfect Birthday present!
De kwaliteit is echt bizar hoog, fantastisch Arjen en vrienden!
I'm totally convinced that WE MUST PROTECT this material, it shows everything a human being is capable of doing not just well but in EXCELLENCE, like seeing THE BEST orchestra in the universe.
We must package it and send it outer space as the only proof humans existed and they could achieve this level of magnificence, for aliens to see, even a million years from now.
Everyone grab your copy, is the only thing we need in case of the collapse of the human race and the internet.
My ears are blessed everytime I hear AYREON.
🙌🏽🙏🏽⭐
WOW... WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOOOOOOOWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great live performance! Kudos to Arjen and the whole crew! This is the hardest song I covered and I'm proud to know Arjen in this lifetime ❤
Sir, my thanks cannot be adequately expressed. These people have become some of my favorite in the entire world and my love to each and every one of them. And to you, dear Sir, my appreciation and love can inly be understated, because the proper words have not yet been invented. DVD will be ordered as soon as possible.
Yeah, now that I've watched it... what can I say? These people GOT IT, they just do! I was really missing Daniel singing live. Damian is Damian, I mean, come on! Mike been Mike, (I really thought that TH-1's part would not be one bit live, because it's so damn hard). As always the band is flawless. Maggie did a great job and so did everybody! YOU'RE ALL AMAZING! love it so f*cking much!
I'm awe!
Genius! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Thank you for the music, Maestro!
Happy Birthday!!🎉
I’m speechless!! For the next show I take a ticket and a day off. I can’t miss this incredible event anymore!😍
the best progressive metal band ever!!! I love U
Happy Birthday Arjen.❤ I didn't realise we were the same age! You look so young!😊
Mike Mills! This man is just beyond incredible!!!
OMG @ArjenALucassen what a performance !!
It must have been a challenge to cope with such an iconic masterpiece... Challenge accepted of course, and the result... Wow...
I would have loved to be there, what a treat, respect !
And btw... Happy birthday Maestro 🎂
❤❤❤ Ich liebe diese Band über alles!!!😊😊😊
Unglaublich oder? Ich habe die DVD bestellt und freue mich seit Wochen soooooo drauf!!!
17 hours to go. The silence is deafening.
Edit: Incredible performance by all. Amazing!
I am from Brazil.. I love Ayreon
Oh god!! I am really shocked, emotional and MUCH more happy that I was 15 min ago. It's so amazing...
This!
Shivers down my spine. Again! I was so lucky to be there. Never expected such a perfect performance. Can't wait till the next rock opera. 😄
