@@caroldelosangeles3621 gracias por el lindo comentario 😊. Estoy convencido que allí en Tilburg todxs disfrutamos el show sintiendonos unidxs mas alla de nacionalidades pero tambien disfrutamos de nuestras banderas porque de alguna forma nos muestra que independientemente del rincón del mundo del que vengamos nos apasiona la misma música al punto de recorrer todos esos kilometros para una gran reunión. Nunca mas cierto ese slogan "La música nos une" 🤘
I apologize for spamming the comments, but I think it's important to note that this particular song, fantastic as it is, is basically just a remix of Crestfallen by Soilwork. It's very much the same tempo and melody, nearly identical. That said, I _love_ Epica. I just wanted to give Soilwork the respect they deserve because I haven't noticed anyone else mentioning it.
And a Europe's "Nothin' to Ya" has the exact same riff as Sabbath's "I" What's your point? Bands rip each other off all the time. BTW never got into Soilwork
@@thepriest98 That's interesting! It's totally the same song. I would also recommend Sun Is Going Down by Helloween and Lost by Beautiful Sin. I'm a musician and I know music. My only point is that the original artist deserves the credit, too. There have been plenty of times that I "thought" I had written a new song, but it turned out I had accidentally "stolen" a melody. For the record, I don't think that's the case, here. Granted, there are _clear_ demonstrations of theft. Coldplay absolutely _stole_ from Joe Satriani's: If I could Fly when they made Viva La Vida. All I'm saying is that there's a distinction between theft and inspiration. I don't consider this theft, but Coldplay, I think, f**ked up.
"There's no time to cry". And here I am with tears rolling down my face... ending a horrid period of my life. Finally did something for me down to my soul level that I've never been able to access within me. Epica has "saved" me so many times. Probably why I've seen them 15 times live :P
@Hezekiah Montiel Often I fnd myself on EPICA shows while dreaming and it's always ecstatic. Saxophone was something I always secretly wanted to hear in their music. The closest thing they've done so far was 'Beyond the Matrix' with Metropole orkest where jazz and metal clash. Either way I'm grateful for what I hear today....
Not sure if there was a sax, but that Aeyreon track *Daniel's Decent Into Transitus Melody* was pretty jazzy. (also had Simone & Tommy) ua-cam.com/video/ozmTXh2CBWw/v-deo.html
Epica isn't AS symphonic as say Nightwish. Epica has a heavier tone. VERY similar writing though. I know Epica and Nightwish do share a history. Epica is definitely a harder head banger than Nightwish. Nightwish is a bit more symphonic and calmer metal though. Two distinct styles. And both as amazing.
@@samishiikihaku epica uses more orchestral and classical sounds if you listen to their entire catalogue - they use real classical and real symphonies with the metal sounds hence the name "symphonic metal"
@@samishiikihaku epica uses more real classical music and symphony orchestras and choirs -if you listen to their entire catalogue - they mix real classical music with metal - hence the genre "symphinic metal"
Lyrics Mirror, mirror on the wall Who will be the one to destroy us all Mirror, mirror, can’t you see? It’s written in the stars that it’s you and me! They’re gonna burn this world down to the ground Guns are going off, can’t hear a sound Toxic in the air, I can hear you pray Will you stay with me? Can you hear what I say? You said: Let’s live forever now But that was yesterday I guess it’s time to say goodbye The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby It is time! Don’t you cry! Say your prayers Wave goodbye! As the darkness comes down! The world ends and everything dies! Mirror, mirror on the wall Do you think we can survive this all? Mirror, mirror, can you hear? They’re coming for us, it is what we feared! They’re gonna tear this night up at the seams Lies are all around, nothing’s what it seems Tear gas in the sky. I can’t breathe! Will I see you again? Will you remember me? You said: Let’s live forever now But that was yesterday Now blood flows and fills the sky The stars begin to fade I hear you say: It’s over now There’s no time to cry I guess it’s time to say goodbye The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby It is time! Don’t you cry! Say your prayers Wave goodbye! As the darkness comes down! The world ends and everything dies! Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah You and I will find a way out here tonight! Ouh! So here we are, hand in hand (everything dies!) Watching the world end (and now, everything dies!) The rain is pounding down on us, from a broken sky (everything dies!) But we will live somehow (and now) I hear you say: It’s over now There’s no time to cry I guess it’s time to say goodbye The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby
Epica definately knows whats up! The endtimes are here, the slave-matrix we were living in for thousands of years is collapsing! All Darkness comes to Light and Truth and Love will prevail! The Final Victory of Light is near! 🥳🙏💜
This song is just so good, Simone's voice is always amazing and Jorgen's voice just works so well with both hers and the song. I could listen to that chorus on repeat for hours!
Epica is Love. First time they have ever used a saxophone, like it. ♥ Especially the mix with Epica's usual sound (which have always sounded great) and the more heavier and progressive elements that even contains even some jazz aspects in the end. It proves that Epica have always managed to keep a balance between the usual symphonic sound and new elements which they're not afraid to try. ❤❤
By far my favorite thing about Metal is how people can take literally any instrument or style they want and just toss it in, all for fun, obviously having a blast, and it'll sound really cool.
Maki Sakai has given her eldest daughter a family register. However, her current residence is in Korea. Her family register has been changed to Korean primary nationality. The reason is that her original place of birth is Tibet. So her primary nationality is Tibet City, and her Korean nationality is Han City.

This looks like a very exciting project, kinda of what Tobi has been doing with Avantasia all these years. Epica never ceases to amazed me, mad respect for these guys and for all their hard work
Please, I don't want to wake up and end this beautiful dream that is listen Epica. Since 2002 is just one band in my speakers, my headphones and my heart! Epica will live for ever!
I didn’t enjoy this at Tilburg but I’m notoriously slow to get into new songs. I’ve heard this a few times now and it rocks. Love it. Alchemy is pre-ordered. Roll on November
Komori Makoto's mother is the second daughter of Emami Shun Salami's eldest daughter. His father is the second son of the Count of Arabia. He is powerful.
In Japan, there was a TV program where Japanese orphans left behind in China met their long-lost parents. Why don't meet them, Mi-san? Even after resuscitation, they are still alive. Their parents are still alive. Reunion is the civil law.
Epica's synthesizer is the deputy head priest of a Buddhist temple in Moldova. His home in Japan is a temple. No heir. Synthesizer's second son is the heir. Inabaji Temple.
If there was a theme song for surviving the Apocalypse this folks is it. So epic and so much power in this song. Its like an energy source to listen to and i can't get enough so been playing this like daily the last week.
I imagine it as the villain of the story succeeding in ending the world, waiting for the heroes to come and vanquish them. They have done what needs to be done, so all they can do now is monologue before the mirror, looking back at what they have done as they wait for the end to come.
@@LuiKang043 I remember reading a comment from another Epica song saying it would make for a great "metal Disney princess movie," and the more I think about it, and reading your comment... man, that needs to be real.
Saw them last night in Seattle, not only did they do such an amazing show, but I have a very deep appreciation for them and their music. Thank you Epica
Hey, can you tell me about it in more detail? I'm seeing them in Chicago on October 15th.They are opening for Sabaton. That sucks because I'm not a big fan of sabotan and I wish epica was headlining. Just LOVE THEM!😍❤🤘
Kasugai Seika's CCE is Shimazu Nariakira = Yosaku. Criminal charges were filed against him by a Japanese home improvement store. Nagoya District Court.
I *love* Epica, but this song is just version of _Crestfallen_ by _Soilwork._ Check it out! It's nearly the same, beat for beat. I can sing Soilwork over this song.
@@Model_BT-7274 The main melody is nearly identical, minus a slightly different tempo. Normally I would look past that, but change the tempo and I can sing Crestfallen over this entire song, even the chorus. A better example would be Sun is Going Down by Helloween and Lost by Beautiful Sin. Check them out! That said, I'm not complaining in either circumstance, I just want everyone to get their due recognition. All of these songs are awesome. I've been a _huge_ Epica fan since 2004.
Just saw them last night. I have to say my views of this band have changed for the better. The sheer talent and chemistry blew me away. Epica is starting to win me over just a bit. Great stuff!
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever listened too. It's no wonder why Epica is 1). My favourite symphonic metal bands and 2). A true metal delight
Listen to Crestfallen by Soilwork! It's basically the same song, beat for beat, only I prefer Crestallen. This song is great, too, and Epica is legendary, but there's some heavy influence here, I think.
In Japan, JR freight trains are more popular than trucks. Freight trains run from Kagoshima to Hokkaido. All food except for raw food is transported by freight train. Truck drivers are in the entertainment industry. They don't know that.
The song is beautiful, Epica never disappoints. Shotout to the videomakers, they've all made a magnificent job: the video is hypnotizing, very well made and perfectly syncronized with the melody and in certain parts with the lyrics 🤘🏻
I'll need to listen a few times to properly process the song, but it's highly encouraging to see the band experimenting; the Alchemy Project looks intriguing.
Toshimichi Okubo was Mr. Onodera of Kasugai Confectionery. A great ruler. His honor was erased from the Japanese Constitution. He was stripped of his honor. He was stripped from the European Orders and Decorations Council. Toshimichi Okubo is infamous.
Great song and great footage of the 20th anniversary show. Was sooooo lucky to be there. 😁❤️ Great evening. Watched also the livestream two times. Hope that it will be released on Blu-ray and dvd. Thank you for this video.
So many familiar faces in the crowd, that's the ultimate present Epica could've given us after queueing for over 20h to get the front row. Damn, that was the best night of my life! Amazing song, I'm so lucky to have experienced it live - can't wait for the rest of the EP to be released
Até foi interessante, mas ficou muito raso. Poderia ter aproveitado melhor. Me pareceu uma música bem genérica, nada como o unleashed. Vamos ver as outras músicas....
@meh well, it´s my opinion mate. Unleashed is a lot better than this. Just for comparison's sake. I´m not saying the band is bad, just saying this song didn´t click for me.
C'est totalement fabuleux 😍Autant de génie et des progrès constants pendant 20 ans de carrière alors qu'ils ont pourtant démarré au sommet, c'est indécent pour les autres groupes. Epica for ever ❤
Having been an Epica fan so long, its such a joy to see them having so much fun on stage. Simone's vibe in this video is just fantastic and the track itself is incredible!
And this is how you celebrate two decades of amazing music. This is so electrifying and melodious and yet heavy and passionate. Got goosebumps all over. To whomever edited this, what a fantastic job. The concert was brilliant, and this video is a perfect trailer for it. Jørgen and Simone... what to say... thank you, Mark, for choosing this as a single. A bit of a shame that the saxophone solo was cut a bit, though. To those who are not aware of the Norwegian Shining, give blackjazz a try. It is something you won't forget. I do need to mention how much of a fabulous drummer Arjen is. He plays it all and is, to me, the best metal drummer in the genre. Also, watching this reminded me of how nice Epica's fanbase is. So many flags, so many people travelling from across the world and joining forces. Hugs to you all.
This song is nearly identical to Crestfallen by Soilwork. Beat-for-beat. Granted, it's still an incredible song that I love from a band that I love, but it's Crestfallen. Check it out!
@@LigeiaNoire I've been playing music by ear for the past 30 years. It's _literally_ the same beat, tempo, timing and melody. It's even the same key. If I had isolated vocals of both, I could literally mix the two, _easily._ Because it's the same song. Only Epica's, who I adore, is a little extended. Incidentally, I also just heard Someone Like You by Adele. That song is Secrets by One Republic (granted, Adele came first). I hear these things. You have to look past the lyrics and vocals and listen to the _music._
@@TheLegendOfRandy I am being honest and don't see the blatant similarities at all. I see some riffs but they both go on different directions. Then again, nothing, at this day and age, is new. Everything has been done. So, we are bound to hear similarities more and more. I don't hear it but it may be that I don't have a good impartial ear.
@@LigeiaNoire Oh, I know you're being honest. Honestly, the majority of people aren't trained to have an ear for music, so I fully understand. (Edit: This came across condescending and that isn't my intent. What I mean is that I can hear any song and play it on piano just by hearing it. I'm a little more hypersensitive to music than the average person. Heck, maybe you are, too). I've also repeatably mentioned that I love Epica. I've been a huge fan since I first listened to Consign to Oblivion in 2008. I'm not saying this song is "stolen," not at all. What _truly_ is original these days? I'm just saying that it's nearly the exact same melody, even down to the key. So much so that if I were to sing karaoke to Epica's song, I could simply just replace the vocals with Soilwork's and nobody would notice. Listen to "Lost" by Beautiful Sin (which I _genuinely_ think you'll love). It's awesome and in a similar genre to Epica. Then listen to "Sun is Going Down" by Helloween. I think that's a clearer example of what I'm talking about here that I don't think anyone can miss.
That's gonna be another incredible album, and I wish to hear this one live. I also like the "alchemy" concept of this new album, gonna be really interesting to listen
Everyone talks about the Saxophone but no one talks about the man behind that shit! His name is Jørgen Munkeby and he created a monster band called Shining (Nor).
Go and look for them if you want some more of those sick saxophones!
Thanks a lot, Zlip! I'm glad you like the stuff I've made! Hope to see you at a show soon!
All the best,

There isn’t enough actual metal instruments in the metal genre.
I'm actually surprised they haven't incorporated a sax before lol,
I played in middle school band, good times
Epica is definitely the best symphonic metal band - i cant get this song out of my head
After they singing this song in concert I can't get out of my head.

Lyrics
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who will be the one to destroy us all
Mirror, mirror, can’t you see?
It’s written in the stars that it’s you and me!
They’re gonna burn this world down to the ground
Guns are going off, can’t hear a sound
Toxic in the air, I can hear you pray
Will you stay with me? Can you hear what I say?
You said: Let’s live forever now
But that was yesterday
I guess it’s time to say goodbye
The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby
It is time!
Don’t you cry!
Say your prayers
Wave goodbye!
As the darkness comes down!
The world ends and everything dies!
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Do you think we can survive this all?
Mirror, mirror, can you hear?
They’re coming for us, it is what we feared!
They’re gonna tear this night up at the seams
Lies are all around, nothing’s what it seems
Tear gas in the sky. I can’t breathe!
Will I see you again? Will you remember me?
You said: Let’s live forever now
But that was yesterday
Now blood flows and fills the sky
The stars begin to fade
I hear you say: It’s over now
There’s no time to cry
I guess it’s time to say goodbye
The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby
It is time!
Don’t you cry!
Say your prayers
Wave goodbye!
As the darkness comes down!
The world ends and everything dies!
Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
You and I will find a way out here tonight!
Ouh!
So here we are, hand in hand (everything dies!)
Watching the world end (and now, everything dies!)
The rain is pounding down on us, from a broken sky (everything dies!)
But we will live somehow (and now)
I hear you say: It’s over now
There’s no time to cry
I guess it’s time to say goodbye
The world goes to sleep, the final lullaby
Epica definately knows whats up!
The endtimes are here, the slave-matrix we were living in for thousands of years is collapsing!
All Darkness comes to Light and Truth and Love will prevail!
The Final Victory of Light is near! 🥳🙏💜
Great!! This is amazing!

Epica is Love.
First time they have ever used a saxophone, like it. ♥
Especially the mix with Epica's usual sound (which have always sounded great) and the more heavier and progressive elements that even contains even some jazz aspects in the end.
It proves that Epica have always managed to keep a balance between the usual symphonic sound and new elements which they're not afraid to try.

Epica now is one of the most productive bands :) The new song sounds "epican" and fresh at the same time. Love the saxophone parts
Wow such a perfect duet!, those voices were meant to be singing together ;what an awesome song !

Epica's synthesizer is the deputy head priest of a Buddhist temple in Moldova. His home in Japan is a temple. No heir. Synthesizer's second son is the heir. Inabaji Temple.
If there was a theme song for surviving the Apocalypse this folks is it. So epic and so much power in this song. Its like an energy source to listen to and i can't get enough so been playing this like daily the last week.
I imagine it as the villain of the story succeeding in ending the world, waiting for the heroes to come and vanquish them. They have done what needs to be done, so all they can do now is monologue before the mirror, looking back at what they have done as they wait for the end to come.
@@LuiKang043 I remember reading a comment from another Epica song saying it would make for a great "metal Disney princess movie," and the more I think about it, and reading your comment... man, that needs to be real.
Speechless......except for the saying I'm speechless part LOL I always expect EPIC from EPICA
Saw them last night in Seattle, not only did they do such an amazing show, but I have a very deep appreciation for them and their music. Thank you Epica
Hey, can you tell me about it in more detail? I'm seeing them in Chicago on October 15th.They are opening for Sabaton. That sucks because I'm not a big fan of sabotan and I wish epica was headlining. Just LOVE THEM!😍❤🤘
Kasugai Seika's CCE is Shimazu Nariakira = Yosaku. Criminal charges were filed against him by a Japanese home improvement store. Nagoya District Court.
Epicaの歌は遺伝子の歌。本物。
I love how they keep evolving while keeping that Epica essence we love so much ❤
I *love* Epica, but this song is just version of _Crestfallen_ by _Soilwork._ Check it out! It's nearly the same, beat for beat. I can sing Soilwork over this song.
@@TheLegendOfRandy while parts are the melody are super similar, they deviate too much after the first quarter to say it's basically the same
@@Model_BT-7274 The main melody is nearly identical, minus a slightly different tempo. Normally I would look past that, but change the tempo and I can sing Crestfallen over this entire song, even the chorus.
A better example would be Sun is Going Down by Helloween and Lost by Beautiful Sin. Check them out!
That said, I'm not complaining in either circumstance, I just want everyone to get their due recognition. All of these songs are awesome. I've been a _huge_ Epica fan since 2004.
❤😍🌹🎼🎶A Simone deu um show de musicalidade e técnica no dueto. 🎶🎸🎤🎼 O Epica é uma banda de gênios da music e do metal 🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶😍❤
Just saw them last night. I have to say my views of this band have changed for the better. The sheer talent and chemistry blew me away. Epica is starting to win me over just a bit. Great stuff!
Her second daughter is Aimi Higa. Her second son is Masao Sen.
Freezer resuscitation. 270 years old. Niwa-san is 180 years old. Niwa-san's younger brother is Shintaro.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever listened too. It's no wonder why Epica is 1). My favourite symphonic metal bands and 2). A true metal delight
Listen to Crestfallen by Soilwork! It's basically the same song, beat for beat, only I prefer Crestallen. This song is great, too, and Epica is legendary, but there's some heavy influence here, I think.
I would Always love to hear more male clean vocals in Epica ! This song is amazing 👏 😍
You have been here for me Epica and I will always be with you..🖤
In Japan, JR freight trains are more popular than trucks. Freight trains run from Kagoshima to Hokkaido. All food except for raw food is transported by freight train. Truck drivers are in the entertainment industry. They don't know that.
死の記憶ある。苦しんで死んだ記憶ある。しかし、忘れない。なので死にたくない。また、苦しみ味わいたくない。なので生。生きるのを悟り。意識隔離した。
What I really love about Epica is the fact that they are continuously giving us new music/new stuff. Take my moneeeey! 🤩🤩
The song is beautiful, Epica never disappoints. Shotout to the videomakers, they've all made a magnificent job: the video is hypnotizing, very well made and perfectly syncronized with the melody and in certain parts with the lyrics 🤘🏻
I'll need to listen a few times to properly process the song, but it's highly encouraging to see the band experimenting; the Alchemy Project looks intriguing.
Agreed! It's hard for a band to go 20 years without stagnating *COUGHnightwishCOUGH*
Toshimichi Okubo was Mr. Onodera of Kasugai Confectionery. A great ruler. His honor was erased from the Japanese Constitution. He was stripped of his honor. He was stripped from the European Orders and Decorations Council. Toshimichi Okubo is infamous.
❤❤❤
Great song and great footage of the 20th anniversary show. Was sooooo lucky to be there. 😁❤️ Great evening. Watched also the livestream two times. Hope that it will be released on Blu-ray and dvd. Thank you for this video.
Como não amar essa banda incrível que meteu um belo saxofone na música e ficou simplesmente perfeito???????!!!!!! Obrigada por existirem. 🤧🥺
So many familiar faces in the crowd, that's the ultimate present Epica could've given us after queueing for over 20h to get the front row. Damn, that was the best night of my life!
Amazing song, I'm so lucky to have experienced it live - can't wait for the rest of the EP to be released
Lucky bastard.
@Hezekiah Montiel I was, when the song started I couldn't believe that we were really listening to a new song first hand hahah what a night
🎉🤘🥳🤘 2nd anniversary
A former soldier was in prison. He asked for a bone-swelling experiment. One leg. He was given honor. For the future.
This video is FREAKING INSANE, congrats guys.
This song plays a movie in my head, it is truly epic! One of the only songs that can bring tears to my eyes every time I hear it!
What kind of movie?
And Epica's keeps proving why it's the best symphonic metal band ❤️❤️ WHAT A SONG, I'M SO ADDICTED
幽体離脱は、真っ暗な場所で寝てる。しかし、意識隔離は、明るい場所で目を開けてる
ナイトウィッシュのVOCALの長男は、佐野史郎。佐野史郎の次男がマクロンです。佐野史郎の長男が萩本欽一です。
This should not work but it actually does and it is a masterpiece
AGREED
I feel the same. I would never have associated sax with metal but they did it and it works so well. Absolutely brilliant!
I that that is what everyone said when "Oceanborn" came out in 1998.
Now it's a whole genre.
Check out
Rivers of Nihil - Where Owls Know My Name
White Ward - Leviathan
Both bands feature the sax
What some people think shouldn't work is just being close minded. Any instrument can work with any genre.
Hope they will play this amazing song during their tour in Brazil this year!
This is just incredible ❤ your music as magic! Your my favorite band
Kishida doesn't know that change who talking to, it becomes criminal law.
Quien dijo que no se podía meter saxofón en una canción de metal sinfónico
You are simply by far the best symphonic metal band in the world! Love you Epica, forever and ever! 🖤🤘🏻
Epica fazendo algo diferente é o que muita gente queria faz tempo, espero que valorizem. Muito boa a colaboração, espero ansioso pelas outras.
🤓💛🎷🎸
Até foi interessante, mas ficou muito raso. Poderia ter aproveitado melhor. Me pareceu uma música bem genérica, nada como o unleashed. Vamos ver as outras músicas....
fazendo diferente? onde há algo diferente ? porra, cara. não fode!
@meh well, it´s my opinion mate. Unleashed is a lot better than this. Just for comparison's sake. I´m not saying the band is bad, just saying this song didn´t click for me.
@@mxlm777 nossa, profundão vc, heim?!
@@igorbarros4623 Todo mundo precisa concordar com você não é verdade?
This song and watching the video just gives me so much energy, it feels like I'm right back into the pit
ポップは、女にモテる。メタルは、男のみ。サモスモテる。かっこいいと言う。アジアの女性
素晴らしい。ウサマ・ビンラディンも太鼓判。
C'est totalement fabuleux 😍Autant de génie et des progrès constants pendant 20 ans de carrière alors qu'ils ont pourtant démarré au sommet, c'est indécent pour les autres groupes. Epica for ever ❤
Having been an Epica fan so long, its such a joy to see them having so much fun on stage. Simone's vibe in this video is just fantastic and the track itself is incredible!
Loved performing this song. Such great energy!
Everything is perfect in this synthesis: from the eerie lullaby at the end to the saxophone!
Epica created a masterpiece (once again)!
A 40-foot container is one train car. The cost of transportation from Kagoshima to Hokkaido is 120,000 yen. Expenses included.
Jørgen is a singing god.
I'm sorry to have just discovered this group, but we have energetic days ahead.
Greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷
Hey, I'm JEALOUS you just discovered them! You get to enjoy so much for the first time. Like the whole Retrospect concert. 🙂
EPICA de los pocos grupos con personalidad y carisma propios para durar y calar hondo....... hacéis mis 53 más llevaderos!!!!
Me arrepiei toda aqui.. Que energia é essa dessa música Épica?! Sensacional!!! 🤘🏻
匂いの強さ悪臭濃度は、匂いは、電子で脳内に伝わってる。
物体は、空気なる。燃えれば空気。木も燃えて煙出る。空気と混ざって煙になる。
I can't even express how much I was looking forward for this song! Happy to have it out so soon
And this is how you celebrate two decades of amazing music. This is so electrifying and melodious and yet heavy and passionate. Got goosebumps all over. To whomever edited this, what a fantastic job.
The concert was brilliant, and this video is a perfect trailer for it.
Jørgen and Simone... what to say... thank you, Mark, for choosing this as a single.
A bit of a shame that the saxophone solo was cut a bit, though.
To those who are not aware of the Norwegian Shining, give blackjazz a try. It is something you won't forget.
I do need to mention how much of a fabulous drummer Arjen is. He plays it all and is, to me, the best metal drummer in the genre.
Also, watching this reminded me of how nice Epica's fanbase is. So many flags, so many people travelling from across the world and joining forces. Hugs to you all.
This song is nearly identical to Crestfallen by Soilwork. Beat-for-beat.
Granted, it's still an incredible song that I love from a band that I love, but it's Crestfallen. Check it out!
@@TheLegendOfRandy Dude... apart from 3 seconds in the beginning with the riff, there's no similarity at all ..
@@LigeiaNoire I've been playing music by ear for the past 30 years. It's _literally_ the same beat, tempo, timing and melody. It's even the same key. If I had isolated vocals of both, I could literally mix the two, _easily._ Because it's the same song. Only Epica's, who I adore, is a little extended.
Incidentally, I also just heard Someone Like You by Adele. That song is Secrets by One Republic (granted, Adele came first). I hear these things. You have to look past the lyrics and vocals and listen to the _music._
@@TheLegendOfRandy I am being honest and don't see the blatant similarities at all. I see some riffs but they both go on different directions. Then again, nothing, at this day and age, is new. Everything has been done. So, we are bound to hear similarities more and more. I don't hear it but it may be that I don't have a good impartial ear.
@@LigeiaNoire Oh, I know you're being honest. Honestly, the majority of people aren't trained to have an ear for music, so I fully understand. (Edit: This came across condescending and that isn't my intent. What I mean is that I can hear any song and play it on piano just by hearing it. I'm a little more hypersensitive to music than the average person. Heck, maybe you are, too).
I've also repeatably mentioned that I love Epica. I've been a huge fan since I first listened to Consign to Oblivion in 2008. I'm not saying this song is "stolen," not at all. What _truly_ is original these days? I'm just saying that it's nearly the exact same melody, even down to the key. So much so that if I were to sing karaoke to Epica's song, I could simply just replace the vocals with Soilwork's and nobody would notice.
Listen to "Lost" by Beautiful Sin (which I _genuinely_ think you'll love). It's awesome and in a similar genre to Epica. Then listen to "Sun is Going Down" by Helloween. I think that's a clearer example of what I'm talking about here that I don't think anyone can miss.
That's gonna be another incredible album, and I wish to hear this one live. I also like the "alchemy" concept of this new album, gonna be really interesting to listen
エマミ・シュン・サラミは。喜んでる。日本語たからシモネーも喜んでる。
esa bandera argentina me representa tanto como epica!! 🤟🤟🤟🤟
