Nik, how to get your tabs?
Now we need a Floor Jansen reacts to: Red Panda! 😆
Yo nic, cover of hurricane or popular monster?
Yo nic, cover of hurricane or popular monster?
Yo nic, cover of hurricane or popular monster?
Here are the lyrics for y'all. This was FANTASTIC, Nik. Thank you so much for thinking of me!! ♥
(Verse 1)
In the realm of forgotten dreams,
Where innocence was torn at the seams,
A fading melody of childhood's gleam,
Lost in shadows, or so it seems.
(Pre-Chorus)
But through the whispers (through the whispers) of the night,
A spark awakens, a guiding light
(Chorus)
Oh, the red panda, guardian of grace!
(Verse 2)
Through the paths of enchanted forests we shall roam,
Seeking echoes of laughter we once called home,
With every step, our hearts shall mend,
As we chase the echoes around and around and around the bend.
(Pre-Chorus)
Through moonlit skies and starry trails,
the red panda guides, never to fail!
(Chorus)
Oh, the red panda, guardian of grace!
Oh, with fur of fire, gentle embrace!
(Bridge)
We will dance upon the moonlit shores,
where childhood whispers are restored.
Our souls are restored, ah!
(Chorus)
Oh, lead me, panda through realms of old!
Oh, where innocence is yet untold.
Finally......it has happened. 💕
What a great collab! Love your work!
cant wait for you and Will to release a banger with Nik's production.
This was amazing! Love it. Thank you, Elizabeth!!!
@@peppersurfer That would be so awesome! A duet with Will and Elizabeth sounds epic on its own but with Nicnoc's production skills it would just be too good to be true.
Elizabeth and Nik, not a duo that I would've thought of but now that it's here I need more.
Elizabeth is friends with Will same energy as Nik so them vibing isn't really a shocker😁 NOT INTENDED AS A JAB
That true, is great.
agreed that we need more. or I do, anyway 😅
+ will and then we’ll have a FREAKING BANGER OF A COLLAB SONG
A little bit of Ryan Kirby would sounds insane. I just gonna drop this here. 👀
I love how the metal community has embraced Elizabeth since she began doing her reactions. Between her videos with Will Ramos and this, it's just wholesome AF.
It's almost like she is charismatic voice on behalf of all music lovers... ;)
I love seeing Elizabeth’s journey going from opera singer and rock newbie to being comfortable enough to do a nightwish style with Nik.
I mean I feel like a Nightwish-style song is still very much in Elizabeth’s comfort zone as an opera singer.
@@Chev427BB Totally, its a perfect fit for her. Since she started to like metal and stuff, shes grown so much in music imo. The only thing in this song, i wish she had more...power? at certain parts. But its amazing as it is. They need to do more stuff together.
don't forget she's learning volcals from Will Ramos too XD
Nightwish fans choose consciently to stay newbiesforever. There are hundreds of bands out there better and more interesting than boring and generic Nightwish
@@staalhard4044 okay thank you for your input. Go listen to those bands then instead of commenting here. People like what they like. Why do you care so much? Havnt touched grass in a while?
I love how charismatic voice definitely just started as a regular vocal analyst for all music, but metal fans just kidnapped her attention saying "Yes, she is one of ours now"
*Y O I N K*
Bwah, the fact her hubby is a classic rock and metal head helped.
Elizabeth’s smile as she sings “THE RED PANDA” is everything 😂
It's THE most adorable thing ever
I feel after seeing that her nickname is the red panda lol
I can have the roughest day possible but that smile and her giggle can turn me around in an instant.
Omg I just realised that as much as I have regularly watched The Charismatic Voice, I've never actually heard Elizabeth sing. This was phenomenal. You're both so talented and this song was so cool
same here!
I also never heard her sing. This is an amazing song .... but it´s not "Nightwish-level"!!! But love it.
If you really want to hear her sing, check out the video from when she competed in a very very high status competition for classical music in Belgium (Queen Elizabeth competition). She actually makes a review of it on her channel. The song was from a Mozart-opera and apparently one which is very hard to sing. The song was: "Martern aller Arten"
@@markusstutzmann8216 I agree, they both did fantastic, The song is good in its own right but a few things missing to call it Nightwish like. Elizabeth sounded beautiful but the vocals seemed way over processed (to be nightwish). Also with the vocals, Floor's range (low's to highs), her dynamics (quiet and loud) and her change of styles (grit to opera) usually found in every song is much more prominent than what was show in this song (not anyones fault, Floor is just a freak of nature). Lyrics were also too simple to be Tuomas level. The track was actually pretty close but a few things missing. Tuomas likes to put a lot of full stops, followed by a short Orchestra or Choir or solo vocal part before cranking it back up. He also manages to change the song entirely half way and bridge it so flawlessly that you feel its the same song but really it could have been two songs. I don't want to sound like I am criticizing their talent to do this because I'm not. But because this is labeled "how to right a Nightwish song" I feel compelled to give my feedback on what I felt is missing. Maybe A second attempt is in order. lol.
Yep same here! Never expected such a full voice, stunning!
Elizabeth's voice is insane, she absolutely killed this. Also loved her switch from serene opera singing goddess to goofy red panda costume 😂
No, it was not top-notch singing. But I think it was more about having fun. :)
@@MM_Legacyit sounds a lot like Once-era Nightwish so I'd say she nailed it
This video was very fun to edit, especially on the playthrough. I truly felt like a professional with multiple camera angles to choose from and many takes (for the red panda cameos) 🤣🤣
Thank you so much for all the effort. This looked fantastic!!!
Great work. I belive it is always nice to edit a video with such a hotie 😉
You did a great job for sure! 🤩
GG, brazilian amazon forest editor man Kappa
@@thomasj6277ikr its crazy how damn sexy Nik really is, the redhead is alright too
Dude, she's the best vocal coach content creator, regardless of platform. She has such a deep (and immediate 😂 ) appreciation for metal and classic rock. *Happy noises*
Sick gutterals too
I’m on board with her content, as far as I’m concerned Elizabeth is one of us.
She also plays Dark Souls and Diablo. She's one of us
@@Oryyyt 🤘
@@Oryyyt that is a figurine of lilith behind her right?
I know symphonic metal isn't a favorite of Nik's but as a Nightwish fan I loved it. And Elizabeth's voice is gorgeous, giving off huge Tarja vibes. She'd be perfect for symphonic metal. Some band snap her up!
I was just thinking, if I heard this and someone told me this was an unreleased demo for their second album or so, I'd believe them... :D
I love that Elizabeth and Will Ramos became best friends and she is fully branching out and immersing herself into this heavy, epic side of music.
glad you got Elizabeth on this. she has an amazing voice.
you mean her voice is ... charismatic :D :D
@@Pufferzsola i was gonna make that joke but decided not to.
y@@Lilith_Reaver you should've made it a joke
Wow, this sounds like a top notch Tarja era cover. You guys crushed it.
Definitely what I was trying to go for!
I immediately thought the same!
That was my immediate first thought as well. Some OG Tarja vibes. Nailed it.
It might be on Oceanborn
Yes, bring back Tarja era memories. Loved it ❤
Always wanted to hear Elizabeth fronting a symphonic metal band. This came pretty close, but I'd still like to see her live...maybe guesting with Epica would be good! 🙂
Woah i was not expected elizabeths natural tone to be so low😮 cool sound, great somg and singer
OMG can you, Will and Elizabeth all make content together?!? Id melt from happiness
They just did mate.
@@DOSStorm I think meant having Will Ramos join too
@@timjaeger6589 ahhhh..
I would love that too!
might cause a tear in space time homie.
Nik’s full video band writings are always top notch
Elizabeth has an absolutely ANGELIC voice! When it comes to female vocals I love deeper more opera esk singing over higher pitch singing.
Elizabeth has such a CHARISMATIC voice, she's a vocal beast. And she's such a down-to-earth person. Fantastic!!! 😍🤩😍
JESUS CHRIST, the chills I got when that Chorus hits... Elizabeth just needs a power metal band at this point, that was SOOOOOO GOOD. Obviously Nik killed the instrumetal but Elizabeth took it to ANOTHER LEVEL... Also, that Red Panda Onesie thing is great... 100/100 This was sooooo good.
As a Nightwish fan, I approve! It's a classic Tarja's era sound
Yay! Exactly what I was hoping to do. Thank you!!!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Great song, hope you do more such stuff.
100% this could've been a b side from Oceanborn
What a treat to hear Elizabeth on a song like this. This gives me Tarja-Nightwish vibes so hard. She was my favorite Nightwish vocalist.
She has a more pleasant voice than Tarja
So glad I finally got to hear Elizabeth in a metal song. She has such an incredible voice!
Magical, epic, 10/10. Vintage Nightwish!
Elizabeth must be protected at all cost. Metal heads have sworn the sacred oath.
One step closer to get her in a Lorne Shore song. Im very happy she has found the metal community.
Having only heard Liz sing on old clips of her Opera performing days, I can say she's in freaking tune and hope we get more of her on some symphonic metal tracks
Nice! That could’ve been on Once… wish it had a solo ( power metal roots) and a fat bass line (Marko was influential), but undeniably Nightwish!
Can't wait to see Floor Jansen her comment. She's been known to 'Roam the internet' and place comments personally. Wonderful job Nik and Elizabeth!
"With vocals I don't think it'll be boring" is an unusual measure here 😄
I just love how much passion Elizabeth puts into every video she record and this is just next level... You can tell how much she loves and enjoy the music
Red Panda's, Elisabeth, Nightwish and this indeed sounds Tarja era Nightwish. Really cool how you two done this in this awesome collaboration. I would love to see more.
I love how much fun Elizabeth seemed to have on this! Good editing, Caleb.
Just goes to show how talented these two are. This was insane!
She is so animated. I swear she's like a living Pixar character, but in the best way possible.
And that not even mentioning her vocal depth.
Loved it. As a patron of TCV, I love seeing Elizabeth collaborate w/ others. Have to admit to not knowing who you are til this. I like what I see & hear. You two are awesome together! Kudos!
I love the way Elizabeth's face lights up in anything she does
You two should do a "How to Jinjer in 30 seconds" and have Elizabeth show off the harsh vocals she learned from Will Ramos 🤘🤬🤘
Wait, has Elizabeth done harsh vocals on video yet?
dang, that would be awesome
@@swaillidan5558idk but she had a vid with will ramos pretty sure she learned some things about harsh vocals 😊
I'm very impressed with Nick's mind 😮😮
He recreated and re-imagined Nightwish sound he took Amaranth and Nemo to build he's own sound.
I like it. Elizabeth is a love of a human being 💕💕 🫶🏽 💕💕
Nightwish music is so formulaic and generic an 80s computer could poop it out
At this point - we no longer need to wait for our favorite bands to write new music or bands that have split to reunite to make new songs. We now have Nik for that 😂
Beautiful. This has inspired me to become a red panda.
Nik is probably the only UA-camr I watch every day all day
Well you're really missing out
@@hhaste I watch others just not all day like Nik
This is more like epica. This is surprisingly great, I love this kind of music. Very beautiful, people playing "metal" often forget it is about being wide open to all music, not making noise and screaming.
Oh wow! Didn't expect such an Oceanborn vibe from this track! Really nailed it here, Nik!
I felt the same!
Red Pandas, most ferocious of em all! Well done crew!
Man, Elizabeth got some powerful freaking vocals. We need more of this duo! Amazing song!
It's so nice to hear Elizabeth sing, given most of her content is reactions/analysis of other vocalists. She's got such a beautiful voice. If I was into opera, I'd be listening to her all the time.
Sounds like early 2000 Nightwish era!! I can this this 1000 times!!!!
A collab I never would have expected in the style of a band I'd never expect
Epica next?
Honestly, this was probably more close to Epica than Nightwish, but sure, I would love to hear more symphonic metal.
@@NightwishArena They could go considerably heavier with Epica, more chonk, and we know Nik loves some chonk
@@volmie well Nightwish has some pretty chunky songs aswell.. but this sounded more like older Epica than older Nightwish.. gotta agree.
Yeah this is very close to Epica but we’d need some growling and blast beatss
Support the suggestion for Epica, maybe the guy from Blackbraid as male vocalist, he deserves more exposure for his vocals!
She's having an absolute blast doing this. Its great to see her actually dipping into the music that she has come to love.
Nik is a man of his word, he said he was going to make a lot more music this year, a new song almost every week, 2023 is the best year yet for music. ❤
Nik + Guitar + TheCharismaticVoice = Nik Metal Peak
It's the first time I hear Elizabeth actually singing and now I literally need a full album with these two. WTF UA-cam
She's a metal head, this was probably a dream come true for her to make. Everything she's trained for and what she loves. Sounds awesome!
Lol. Go listen to her Ghost Love Score reaction. It was the first time she dipped her toe into the metal water. It has been a journey to say the least.
This has some great early Nightwish vibes. Could easily be a lost track from Angels Fall First or Oceanborn
Very Tarja era sound to it. Brought me back to my early fondness for Nightwish. Another well done jam.
Your content has brought me so much happiness during a very long depressive episode, Thank you for all that you do Nik ❤
The chills from these vocals, oh my. Elizabeth is a goddess.
Nightwish has created something sublime.
The progression in the chorus with Elizabeth's vocal of the top gave an instant shot of goosebumps up my arm. Well done guys!
What I love the most about these vids is that all along the song building, you’re definitely able to hear the style of the band Nik’s trying to imitate, you expect it to sound like the band, but still, when the full song starts, you can’t help but thinking : « OMG THAT’S EXACTLY NIGHTWISH !!!! ».
Nik and Elizabeth should team up a band called Charismatica
Elizabeth makes it sound more like Tarja era Nightwish. I love it!
Reminds me when Tarja used to be the lead... I LOVE THIS
I've been very excited for this full version, Elizabeths vocals are amazing haven't heard her sing before but now I see why her Analysis are always so amazing
I caught most of the stream making this song and it went completely smoothly nothing went sideways at any point no technical difficulties and no one in chat called it a Rammstein song everyone was very nice and supportive.
Elizabeth did a video a couple of years back "reacting" to herself performing an aria at a prestigious opera competition. Well worth the watch, if you want to understand how truly skilled she is!
Yep. She's an opera singer. Those people have the most badass pipes on the planet when it comes to clean singing. They could fill up a whole hall without a mic.
My favorite collaboration of the year. Love Nik and Elizabeth. The two of them together is absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the richness of Elizabeths voice. She can add darkness and brightness to it which is pretty amazing.
Id love to see her guesting metal bands and msybe doing an album like Anette Olzon did after leaving Nightwish.
vocals sounds like tarja and riff is like anette/floor era, im liking this
This goes unbelievably hard, Elizabeth's voice is absolutely heavenly!
Thank you for this, Nik!!!! Elizabeth, you are absolutely amazing (I'm a huge fan)!!!! The world need more content like this!!!!
This is genuinely my favorite track that Nik has emulated, Elizabeth's vocals and the simple but effective instrumentals were KILLER.
This is so good, two off my favourite people killing it. Just need Elizabeth, Will and Nik to do something. From Australia
This has so many Oceanborn-vibes in it!
I honestly hope this is the start of Elizabeth guesting a load of metal. Loved it.
This is amazing!!
I love it!
And what a voice!
What lovely dark tone😮
I didn't think I could crush harder on Elizabeth, but on hearing this...fuhgetaboutit. thank you Nik and Elizabeth.
It’s wild that I’ve watched like 100 Charismatic Voice videos in my day and I’ve never actually heard her sing til just now.
Incredible
Never knew I needed this collab!!
For f**ks sake! That gave me goosebumps all along! You two are awesome!
Loving it the both you working together.. kicking ass!
As a person who grew up listening to Nightwish, but kinda forgot that they existed for the last couple years, I approve. 👍 This has brought me a lot of nostalgia
How can you forget Floor!!!?
Same here! 😊
This was a lot lot more Tarja than Floor an not a bit of Anette.
If I could like a comment more than once, I would. This hit too close to home 😅
bro, this is EPIC... its so amazing the charismatic voice its one of the most wholesome content creators out there.. and you are.. well.. the best SONGWRITTER out there rn xD so... this is avengers of youtube
Dude, I love @TheCharismaticVoice! It's my first time hearing her sing and I want more! Good job on the song, sounds killer.
There’s tons of videos of her singing in opera, or all vocal arrangements on her channel!
The people from my two favorite UA-cam channels in one song, I didn’t see this coming and I’m mad fuckin hyped this is goin straight on my playlist, great work both of ya
OK Nik, we seriously need you to write a banger track and get Elizabeth and Will to do some back and forth beauty and the beast style vocals!
Yeeeeeessssss
elizabeth delivered hell yes. Good job to the both of you, amazing song!!
Was not expecting this combination! Awesome vid guys. Love both your channels!!
First it's Elizabeth and Will Ramos becoming BFF's....and now you two! UA-cam has its moments. So fucking good!
I can't remember bad example of Nik doing this type of content, he and guest vocalists always deliver.
Sleep Token was definitely the worst one. Have no clue what the singer was doing on that one especially
@@olivierpeartnoyto be fair, one does not simply pull off Sleep Token.
@@xSmittyxCorex I wish he could've gotten Will Ramos for that one. I like the vocalist he chose, but not for Sleep Token.
Wow! 🤯 That was awesome! It was a cross between the innocent nievete of Angels Fall First and the polish and focus of Once. Great job guys! Fantastic arrangement Nik! 🤘
Also, Elizabeth has such a warm and beautiful voice and she just seems to glow when she sings. I know a lot of TCV dans have wanted to hear Mrs.. Zharoff sing a symphonic metal song, so thank you, Nik for helping make that a reality.
I also LOL-ed off the couch at THE RED PANDA!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, I’m gonna need a full rock opera. Maybe an epic resonating the times of old. Just let me know when tickets are available.
This . . . is astonishing! It really took me back to the days of Oceanborn and Bless the Child.
This makes me SO happy! I absolutely ADORE The Charismatic Voice's Elizabeth. She's so insightful and intelligent.
Awesome song too, Nik. You da real MVP. And I can tell y'all just had lots of fun with this one. I mean... it's about red pandas, so... mucho fun.
Love it! To me it sounds more like Xandria than Nightwish though.
same
Elizabeth looked like she was having a blast!
You know what? actually pretty good, what the heck? :D
Also, Elizabeth's grin before she even started singing (6:55) ... pure joy!
Nik: what are we gonna name a Nightwish song? idk, Magical Tale, Dead Dream?
Elizabeth: the R E D P A N D A 🐼
Well she IS a literal red panda! :3
Damn! I knew she was a singer but I had never heard her sing before. Multitalented! Nik bringing the strings as usual 🤟
You should check out her opera performance. She's insanely talented. Makes it look like she had to hold back here to not break her mic. lol
These collabs are fire bro. Been watching your channel for a while. Love seeing you create more music.
Elizabeth is so great on this, I'm 100% sure this is Elizabeth on like 10% of her skills
This is a true statement.
