not many to be honest, it's such an underrated combination! Northern Kings stuff is the first thing that comes to my mind (JP Leppäluoto is a member of the project, so it's not really that surprising), Marco and Tuomas from Nightwish also match the description. If you're fine with musicals, you can try 'A Dangerous Game' from Jekyll&Hyde (Anthony Warlow version preferably). I think it's quite similar to the DWTD - it's dark, full of passion, but most of all it's just a wonderful duet.
Haha, I both love and hate your description of perfection :D I love it because it is very much on point, but I hate it because those handsome long-haired guys with deep voices wearing top hats make it so much harder for us regular looking long-haired guys who couldn't sing to save their lives and cannot afford a top hat :'D But man, do I ever love these neo-gothic themes with metal music and opera/acting.
@@jamesbernadette6216 haha, I didn't mean to exalt anyone here :D It's more about aesthetics and art, I'd just eagerly see more of this in music or theatre. In real life though... if I really wanted all men to be like that, then I'd probably have to wear corsets and spend hours on doing my hair just to play fair. That's not really something I'd like to do on the daily basis nor would I be good at it^^'
LYRICS: I know why you're here Don't try to escape my dear You've been naughty I know By trying to steal something of my own I have no idea, why I have been dragged down here Don't lie! Nor what you're talking about And Sir there's no reason to shout (And sure there's a reason to shout) I saw the key but didn't steal (You saw the key and tried to steal) I see What do we have here Nothing Now I know why you're here, you are a mischievous thief (I just can't lie to him) But if you want the key, you need to earn it my dear (He sees right through me) Oh bugger he just... This is how we treat our Guests who are trying to cheat (Took the only ticket I had) So you will be my rag doll tonight, tonight (I guess I have to see where this leads) At the dragon's ball Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender You will die another day, another way I think we're done now You think so? I have to go You're not going anywhere Why are you making this (You don't know) Harder than it is (I cry on my own) You have the key (In this lonely place) That you don't even need (That is why) You're standing here between me and my life (I'm standing here between you and your life) I'm sorry to say What now? Just get off with your tail Hah hah hah hah Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender You will die another day, another way Nanananananna leoleolelee May I have this dance Aah Nanananananna leoleolelee I will show you My best moves (Aah, your best moves) Why don't you? I just need the key, I'm trying to get out of here I know that it's a bad deal And disappointed you must feel But please help me to escape Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender We will die another day, another way... Another day... another day... Another way... another way... Another day... another way...
This entire video is a masterpiece! But can we just take a moment and appreciate the performance of the men who acted as mannequins in the background! There performance is so clean and convincing. Absolute sheer magnificence!
Rhapsody he has some music, Symphony X have some great music Dream Theater has some great music as well these guys always get passed passed up at the Grammys then of course you have the classic Rick Wakeman Journey to the Center of the Earth
Lost count of how many times I've watched this in the last three days, it's almost on permanent repeat. JP's voice is so perfect for this character, seductive with a hint of menace. If only it were possible to dance a tango with the Dragon (sighs heavily)
You wanna hear something REALLY funny? I'm a 54 year old gramma, a total addict of 80's music, and I can NOT get enough of this song. I freaking LOVE it! These two people are absolute magik together. Ok that's it, carry on :)
....As the intense instrumental lead kicks in, Dark Sarah begins to fall under the Dragon's spell....he shows her a vision of what it could be like if she were to voluntarily choose to stay.....but then she realizes what is happening and pulls out of the beautiful trance. It is then that you can see the utter longing and loneliness in his eyes - and then he realizes that it was all for naught......
I am absolutely OBSESSED with this masterpiece. I love how they incorporated Carmen's tango and the tango dancing. I absolutely love this. ❤️❤️❤️. And the lyrics and how it is represented.
There are so many fascinating details in the video...the sleeves of Dark Sarah 's dress are lace, which one can literally "see right through " just as she is lying for all she's worth- and matches the lace at the Dragon's cuffs. So do her striped stockings (reminiscent of the witch crushed by the house in The Wizard of Oz) match the singlet or undershirt you can see the Dragon wearing in several of the later frames. Steampunk devotees (or recent bridal participants )will recognize the Dragon 's jacket as a tailcoat, hence the poke about his tail (which in his dragon manifestation he would of course possess) as if he were treading on her foot (as if!) is even sharper. There are so many non-accidental matching details that are subliminally telling us that they are a pair: beautiful and charming, covetous, territorial, and dangerous ( was it one , two, or more guys Dark Sarah burned alive- which would probably be a dragon's go-to method). As far as misogyny accusations go, neither party is a sweet innocent, and dragons, male or female, are not generally on the losing side of power dynamics. If I were to find someone literally caught red-handed, with their hand in my pocket, as they're playing with my hair to distract me and singing about kindness and forgiveness, I might possibly react more strongly than the Dragon does. Misogyny is dislike, dismissal, or discrimination against women, qua women. Honestly, as appealing as she is, Dark Sarah has more than earned the hard-line response she encounters, as a person, if of the female persuasion. And the tango, beautifully done BTW, is more a mating ritual than "putting women in their place". There are similar matches and messages in Trespasser, as well. ( And did anyone else see the slightly lopsided heart in the end of the first campfire scene, made of moonlight and shadows, and a subtle one in the rocks and embers of the fire? The fleeting blue flashes from both of their black garments in the early scenes? Dark Sarah's dragon's tooth necklace? ) This would be equivalent to the nuances of great literature. And you see it after your views of these outrageously gorgeous videos mounts into the dozens. I only wish I could give the time of these notes, but I am old enough not to be great at tech. The musical opulence, the vocal magic, the passionate emotion matches the visual splendor and the brilliant artistry. Wow! The late, great Jim Steinman said, " You've got to go over the top to see what's on the other side." There can't be anything better... but I can't wait for more.
Murdesque yes me and my husband are addicted to this song when we first herd its we were sharing it everywhere i since the views on it have bin going up the part where JP laughs its absolutely perfect ugh if they would make this into a movie i would watch it in a heartbeat!!!
Directly inspired this song. If you have the chance listen to the wholw album in order, its a perfect example of a concept album where every song tells a piece of a larger story
reminds me about a mix between Phantom of the opera and a very darker version of Beauty and the Beast (the beast being a dragon in disguise of a human that holds the beauty as prisoner in his castle for his own joy and need of compassion). Love this song!
Makes even more sense when you consider Dragons are really greedy creatures and not having something they can't have really irritates them, which makes this all the more tragic :, D
The moment I heard this song I was reminded of Phantom of the Opera and then there is a part in the song that comes just after the Dragon says "what do we have her" that reminds me of Moulin Rouge when Christian sings this part: Why does my heart cry? Feelings I can't fight! You're free to leave me but Just don't deceive me! ...and please believe me when I say I love you! Absolutely LOVE this song and so glad I stumbled upon Dark Sarah quite by chance!!!!!!
The style is somewhat new to me. I'm usually not much of a fan of gothic metal, at least what I've heard. I'm more death/progressive-ish I suppose. Though recently been getting into Fleshgod. I really loved this song though. I love the interplay also w/the female AND male voices. Melody is just superb and the heavy parts kill. I kinda stumbled on this being a fan of JP. :)
Danielle M I went through a phase where I listened mostly to Gothic metal, nowadays is just an occasional thing. My main genres are black metal, prog, doom and avant-garde.
I never really got into gothic, even though I like the 'look' or culture to an extent. I've also never been a fan of female singers in metal...just a thing w/me. I do like some black and doom as well. In fact I just saw Swallow the Sun a few days ago, for the first time!
Found this by accident and can't stop listening, there is a truly haunting beauty to the vocals and I love the sinister statue like nature of the musicians like they are mere extensions of this man's dark delusions of eternal love
Are the musicians dressed in Confederate uniforms? ( If you're not from the USA, that would be our Civil War/War between the States 1860-1864.) Because, what, stuck in the past? A lost cause? Glamor with evil?
Why, oh why, would you want to leave the Dragon? He obviously likes you, and can sing, and his idea of being mean is dancing! I'd like a guy like that. Being serious, I am obsessed with this video! So beautiful, and well choreographed; you guys have awesome chemistry. And the music and the singing! Ah, just perfection.
A simple tango that turns into a dramatic, operatic, rhythmically compelling and orchestrally emphatic and beautifully filmed romantic confrontation … just so much … done so well … absolutely amazing.
I went down a rabbithole yesterday and found this song. Probably listened to it about 50 times now and I love everything about it. The part I find the most intriguing is where they're in a flashback/dream like sequence. At first I was thinking that that scene was their first meeting but he doesn't have the blue eyes and looks more human. I was thinking that maybe Light Sarah and the Dragon's humanity were calling to each other but I think it's more that for a moment they're seeing each other differently. She sees him as a man not a monster and he sees her as a "pure and good" person and not just some theif. The thought is broken when she tries to steal from him again.
I reminds me of another version of beauty and the beast, either way, someone needs to make this into a rock opera musical ASAP like I love phantom of the opera but someone needs to call Andrew Llyod Webber and get on this script. I would love to see these two characters stories.
You Can!! Inside the info about the song on UA-cam is a weblink to the whole Dark Sarah Saga! It's a three part Saga of stories which you can read online, and you can get a hard copy paper edition as a bound book as well. TBH, if I had the money for it, I would definitely buy the book!
@@Theblackdragon136 No problem! I was pretty psyched when I found the info on Dark Sara website. Once you read it, it gives another layer of perspective to the story within the video. 😇
hey. back again. 5 years later. 21 now. kept coming back to listen again every year or two. so... please tell me... where can i find friends like this???
Why haven't I seen this before? Why isn't that a 2 hour feature film? Where is the rest of it? Why am I only here now? What have I been doing with my life?
Dark Sarah's music is written by Mikko P. Mustonen (who also writes the orchestrations for Sonata Arctica), he is such a genius, he deserves more than simply being mentioned in the credits.
Now that I watched the whole video, I feel like a person that's stupid beyond measures for I've been seeing the thumbnail in my video suggestions for some months now and wasn't clicking it to play. This is a masterpiece, I fell in love so instantly!! 😍😍 RIP replay button xD
yes , i immediately thought the same parallel in story and music style. @Belmont2388, I disagree that it this better or worse, just another excellently conveyed story.
I just think it's better because we'll I'm a fan of JP 😍 and Sarah voice is beautiful and so high and yes I have the movie lol but idk this to me I like it more
Well no wonder you think it's better. You're comparing it to that steaming pile of garbage movie version of PotO. Everyone knows that the best version is the original cast recording from 1986.
Heard this song not too long ago... instantly became my favourite song, over any Nightwish song. Absolutely amazing! Please have JP featured in more songs, his voice is fantastic!! It's an incredible addition to your wonderful voice.
I can't believe what I've been missing out on, because while I was listening to metal bands Like metallica and Slipknot, and amongst other things, there was this whole other kind of music out there. Of course I'm from American so that would explain it. It's all about the pop over here, not talent. But symphonic metal bands sure out shine any other category in my opinion. I just love that more and more women are being involved in heavy metal and it's not all about them. They realize it's all about the music unlike pop stars. I also never liked Opera but when you combine Metal, symphonic, and an Opera-ish singing style it just creates music that overwhelms you emotionally. That's what I like about this kind of music. The Artistry is incredible.
I absolutely agree with you! This were my feelings when I introduced myself to symphonic metal. It's so damn emotional and dense. The first band I heard was Avantasia and I never get out of this genre since :P
And imagine the love that a classical music lover would experience when he actually loves metal a lot more but still enjoys opera when discovering symphonic metal...? I came a long path to here. More than a year. Starting with Evanescence, my base, my all-time favourite in May 2017. 6 months later - first meeting with symphonic rock/metal with Within Temptation. Then Halestorm. Godsmack. And here I come to my other favourite (equally with Ev) - Lacuna Coil. Then seriously into symphonic metal - Nightwish, Xandria, Amberian Dawn, Imperia, now Sirenia. And I find this. It has absolutely worthed it. But still this love would fall short. I have and I will always have gothic metal in my heart as my core (logically as I started from Evanescence who have a lot of gothic influences) even though I love symphonic metal and though I'll surely expand my taste (I plan to be an all-genre metalhead) and probably have doom metal as another favourite subgenre.
I have not read the story behind it, but It is so sad when Dark Sarah tries to take the key from the dragon, 'cuz looks like he is in love with her, and when he notice her betrayal, he gives up on helping her. But anyway, Im in love with this video soo much!
Even after all this time, I still say she looks like Sarah Brightman. She's such a beautiful woman and her voice is just amazing. Like a haunting siren.
That chorus gives me the chills in the best way possible. It's such a beautiful duet. Also, I can't be the only person who'd love to see this as a full length film, am I?
Amo sus voces , la música, la complicidad entre ellos , su vestuario , el baile y la letra ... es perfecto todo. Un tema que me gustaría dedicar alguna vez 💖
I almost cry every time they get to that part where she begs him to let her go and tries to take the key from his pocket. Why are you like that? Just stay with Mr Dragon, he is so sad and lonely, and so damn handsome!
Steven Sparks you aren’t alone! UA-cam suggested this video to me about 3 months ago and I didn’t even know that Dark Sarah existed! I’m not a metal head, but I like Dark Sarah
If there is a dance which can express the "ragdoll" mention, it is Tango of course. Love all the elements in this music video - everything is going together perfectly well, sounds and optics, a feast for ear and eye and more!
I think you are one of the four or five people (including music reactor types ) who knew a tango when they saw one. And of course you are correct. Chills...
I LOVE how theatrical both the song and video are! Of all the songs that have been released so far, this is definitely my favorite! Can't wait for Friday to get here!!!
When he says "You've been naughty, I know" in that Deep voice (0;17) I feel ready to spill out everything I did in the past 20 years...And the laugh at 2;40...
Не знаю, чем вы меня зацепили, но я, толком не зная английского, нашёл текст и перевод и выучил и то, и другое )) Песня звучит в голове уже несколько дней, я двадцатый раз смотрю этот ролик, и кайфую. Как же это невероятно потрясающе :-) Thank you for your creativity. You are amazing!
It pains me to be unable to leave more than one like... just rediscovered this in my list, and it is still as magnificent and captivating as I remember. Kudos!
A beautiful song really, so harmonic. Would fit a theater play very well. This song will definitely stay on my playlist for a loooong time. Would be cool to hear more Leppäluoto duets. His voice improved a lot since Charon.
Metal Opera is fantastic.
thank you for telling me what this is so i can find more of it.
@@alicedeer6375 this is gothic opera mix with metal. This is truly unique.
@@jermainekngdom3154 Oh, so there aren't other versions of this? *grabs rope from desk* Alright, I'm cool with that.

@@alicedeer6375 try with Nightwish ! Listen ghost score love but with Tarja Tururen
metal + musical + dark fantasy as a backstory + a handsome long-haired guy with a deep voice and a top hat = perfection!
Omg! I agree with you 100%!
Have you any more suggestions on songs which have beautiful men with the characteristics you describe ? ( sorry! for my crooked English ahah)
not many to be honest, it's such an underrated combination! Northern Kings stuff is the first thing that comes to my mind (JP Leppäluoto is a member of the project, so it's not really that surprising), Marco and Tuomas from Nightwish also match the description.

LYRICS:
I know why you're here
Don't try to escape my dear
You've been naughty I know
By trying to steal something of my own
I have no idea, why I have been dragged down here
Don't lie!
Nor what you're talking about
And Sir there's no reason to shout (And sure there's a reason to shout)
I saw the key but didn't steal (You saw the key and tried to steal)
I see
What do we have here
Nothing
Now I know why you're here, you are a mischievous thief (I just can't lie to him)
But if you want the key, you need to earn it my dear (He sees right through me)
Oh bugger he just...
This is how we treat our Guests who are trying to cheat (Took the only ticket I had)
So you will be my rag doll tonight, tonight (I guess I have to see where this leads)
At the dragon's ball
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
Look at me and the way I ask for
Forgiveness, kindness and help
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
You will die another day, another way
I think we're done now
You think so?
I have to go
You're not going anywhere
Why are you making this (You don't know)
Harder than it is (I cry on my own)
You have the key (In this lonely place)
That you don't even need (That is why)
You're standing here between me and my life (I'm standing here between you and your life)
I'm sorry to say
What now?
Just get off with your tail
Hah hah hah hah
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
Look at me and the way I ask for
Forgiveness, kindness and help
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
You will die another day, another way
Nanananananna leoleolelee
May I have this dance
Aah
Nanananananna leoleolelee
I will show you
My best moves (Aah, your best moves)
Why don't you?
I just need the key, I'm trying to get out of here
I know that it's a bad deal
And disappointed you must feel
But please help me to escape
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
Look at me and the way I ask for
Forgiveness, kindness and help
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
Look at me and the way I ask for
Forgiveness, kindness and help
Take my all, I surrender, surrender
We will die another day, another way...
Another day... another day...
Another way... another way...
Another day... another way...

Can I also add there needs to be more metal operas . Like full blown 2-3 hour operas. With badass vocals and instrumentals just like this.
Repo! The Genetic Opera
Hell yes!

It's just the right mix of "Phantom of the Opra" and Metal.
I'm loving it!
I think you should look up the metal version of Phantom of the Opera by Nightwish :D
Jonathan Young
This sounds like if a Disney villian made a metal song.
LOL!!!
Yeah, would be perfect for something like "Beauty and the Beast". But there's too much metal in it for a Disney movie. ;)
Cool!!!
Makes me think of Beauty and the Beast.
Sounds like a carnival ride that says if you enter you must cook your soul at the end of the ride or die
This is incredible!!! Dark Sarah and JP voice's are so beautiful together!! They need to do more songs together!!

It's been a while since I've heard a Gothic metal song that actually made me feel addicted to it. This is a beautiful song.
I read this is considered 'cinematic metal'...?
Danielle M The music has a very cinematic feel to it, but this song has so many stylistic similarities to Gothic metal.
The style is somewhat new to me. I'm usually not much of a fan of gothic metal, at least what I've heard. I'm more death/progressive-ish I suppose. Though recently been getting into Fleshgod.

I kinda stumbled on this being a fan of JP. :)
Danielle M I went through a phase where I listened mostly to Gothic metal, nowadays is just an occasional thing. My main genres are black metal, prog, doom and avant-garde.
I never really got into gothic, even though I like the 'look' or culture to an extent. I've also never been a fan of female singers in metal...just a thing w/me.
I do like some black and doom as well. In fact I just saw Swallow the Sun a few days ago, for the first time!
Found this by accident and can't stop listening, there is a truly haunting beauty to the vocals and I love the sinister statue like nature of the musicians like they are mere extensions of this man's dark delusions of eternal love
Same here dude i have like 2 hours on loop right now
Same!!! Total accident
Are the musicians dressed in Confederate uniforms? ( If you're not from the USA, that would be our Civil War/War between the States 1860-1864.) Because, what, stuck in the past? A lost cause? Glamor with
evil?
@@patriciafoster9337 I'm not sure you standard Confederate Uni was composed of 2 and 3 piece suits and bow ties.
@Kuges maybe I was just reacting to the hair. OK, tq. Next time I'll look stuff up before embarrassing myself...uniforms and dates
Why, oh why, would you want to leave the Dragon? He obviously likes you, and can sing, and his idea of being mean is dancing! I'd like a guy like that.
Being serious, I am obsessed with this video! So beautiful, and well choreographed; you guys have awesome chemistry. And the music and the singing! Ah, just perfection.
Haha, no kidding!! If we could all be so lucky...
lol
And suddenly the dragon ends up with a harem. XD
oh yes, I fully agree :-D
I am obsessed also!!! Listening and seeng thats the beginning of my morning.....its make my mood every day!!! Dragon is very handsome!
A simple tango that turns into a dramatic, operatic, rhythmically compelling and orchestrally emphatic and beautifully filmed romantic confrontation … just so much … done so well … absolutely amazing.
I'm a huge fan of musicals... and this, it's absolutely incredible. I'm in love.
I´m really obsessed with this video. The voices, the dance, the lyrics, all is perfect. I need to dance with the blue dragon, too.
Same!
1st listen : what is dat
2nd listen : got chills at DON'T LIE
50th listen : TAAAAAKE MY AAALLLLLL
Absolutely true lolol
I got your 50th reaction at the first listening.
I was TAAAKE MY ALL at the 2nd listen
Love this comment lol
If I’m being honest, yeah the passion gets me. That comment was perfect.
"I saw the key but didn't steal!" *clearly and very openly wearing the key*
that is the first key, there are3 supposed to be 3 in total. She tried to steal his but failed lol
I know, like, girl you could at least try to hide it
Maybe she was just borrowing it! 😅
@@nicolacruden9518 XD
In the video, we don't see her stealing the key. Just saying
this seriously needs to be a musical or movie!!!! reminds me of the labyrinth
XxLabyrinthpumkin3xX I'm so glad I'm not the only one who got a serious Labyrinth vibe from this.
Now I can't unsee Bowie wearing that outfit as the goblin king thanks
Apparently it's a book or something. Read the description.
Indeed! Just make the dude be Dracula! (Dracula in Romanian literally means "Son of the Dragon")
@@emilymillar9225 F for Bowie
It's phantom of thr opera meets beauty and the beast....I love both and this song is a new favorite 😍 ❤️ 💕 💗 💖 ♥️
I thought the same, this song is suitable for a duet of Christine and Phantom. It's very beautiful.
I went down a rabbithole yesterday and found this song. Probably listened to it about 50 times now and I love everything about it. The part I find the most intriguing is where they're in a flashback/dream like sequence. At first I was thinking that that scene was their first meeting but he doesn't have the blue eyes and looks more human. I was thinking that maybe Light Sarah and the Dragon's humanity were calling to each other but I think it's more that for a moment they're seeing each other differently. She sees him as a man not a monster and he sees her as a "pure and good" person and not just some theif. The thought is broken when she tries to steal from him again.
I came here by accident and this is amazing
The same 😍
Me too! 😲😍
Me too...!!!!!
X2 D; dude, what did it happened? Lol
Same!
Every girls dream, to dance with a dark and handsome price. :)

@@leilei2062 OMG i tought i was the only one wishing to dance with an actual dragon! :D im so weak for monsters
I thought it was just me 🙈
Exactlyyyy
With the gragon, that's impotrtant;-)
Они прекрасны как контрабас и скрипочка. Ее нежный голос задает направление песни, а он придаёт всему глубину и смысл❤
Вы правы.
скрипка і віолончель*
I'm falling in love with dragon's voice.
Great duet, and amazing song!
I reminds me of another version of beauty and the beast, either way, someone needs to make this into a rock opera musical ASAP like I love phantom of the opera but someone needs to call Andrew Llyod Webber and get on this script. I would love to see these two characters stories.
Omfg yes
If you want to make it good skip him and get this band to do it *-* they are amazing
You Can!! Inside the info about the song on UA-cam is a weblink to the whole Dark Sarah Saga! It's a three part Saga of stories which you can read online, and you can get a hard copy paper edition as a bound book as well. TBH, if I had the money for it, I would definitely buy the book!
@@TheCrazyredheadaz Oh my gosh I can't believe I am just now seeing this thank you!
@@Theblackdragon136 No problem! I was pretty psyched when I found the info on Dark Sara website. Once you read it, it gives another layer of perspective to the story within the video. 😇
What a vocal performance. And what profound bass vocals from Luppaluoto!
Powerful and beautiful feeling, keeps dragging me back here listening to this over and over again. Anyone else as well? :)
I love these songs with the Opera vibe, and by Opera, I mean the strict basic meaning of the word, this appealing theatrical display. Love this track.
Lookup for ayreon.
Damaellak,
OMG :D
hey. back again. 5 years later. 21 now. kept coming back to listen again every year or two. so... please tell me... where can i find friends like this???
Adore this!
The "villain" seems more like the character of the silent film "London after midnight", look for It in the net and you"ll see
spoilers!
@@yurydanielmachadojaimes2931 hat + long hair + dragon makes me think of dracula
@@Leriash exactly what I thought of. Gary Oldman as Dracula in Francis Ford Coppola's version.
Honestly, I was somewhat getting Beauty and the Beast vibes....mixed in with Coppola's Dracula.
Anyone else wish they were Dark Sarah? Lord have mercy, I think I'd melt if I were in her shoes. I hope to one day see this performance live.
Kara Carden Kind of
Why haven't I seen this before?
Why isn't that a 2 hour feature film?
Where is the rest of it?
Why am I only here now?
What have I been doing with my life?
Please, tell me there are musicals like this in theaters!
Right!!!
Repo the genetic opera .
RIGHT!!!!! I would totally watch it
Phantom of the opera and the sequel Love never dies has the same type of vibe.
In finnish maybe.
Damn thats an innovation in symphonic metal.
they call it cinematic metal
D Jeff you should watch repo: the genetic opera
TheJessy8888 Love me some Repo!
You made me watch it.
I still don't know what the fuck it was about. but it was entertaining.
Wish they'd have chosen meat loaf for the boss guy.
Dark Sarah's music is written by Mikko P. Mustonen (who also writes the orchestrations for Sonata Arctica), he is such a genius, he deserves more than simply being mentioned in the credits.
I'm not a fan of musicals, don't care for dancing, yet I can't get enough of this song. I'd happily sit through a whole show of this!
Now that I watched the whole video, I feel like a person that's stupid beyond measures for I've been seeing the thumbnail in my video suggestions for some months now and wasn't clicking it to play. This is a masterpiece, I fell in love so instantly!! 😍😍
RIP replay button xD
I felt the same way when I finally listened to Dark Sarah
So am I and I'm years late..
This reminds me of The Phantom of the Opera 😍😍😍
Angel Thompson this is better then the phantom of the opera 😍
yes , i immediately thought the same parallel in story and music style.
@Belmont2388, I disagree that it this better or worse, just another excellently conveyed story.
I just think it's better because we'll I'm a fan of JP 😍 and Sarah voice is beautiful and so high and yes I have the movie lol but idk this to me I like it more
Well no wonder you think it's better. You're comparing it to that steaming pile of garbage movie version of PotO. Everyone knows that the best version is the original cast recording from 1986.
All in all they're both amazing 😂😍
Anyone here in 2024? 🤘🏻🥰🤘🏻
I'm here 🎀🤩 again and again 😍
Just fall on this nice video😊
Again and again ❤❤❤❤
Not gonna lie. I read that as 2042 at first, and went Time Traveler!!
I came back for this piece of art
man, this new Disney movie rocks!

JP Leppäluoto has the voice of a god.
Definitely
Specifically, Hades
And looks like god from hell, where we all want To go if he's present.
@@linnearaskangas516 Women, and a few guys, on every continent except Antarctic, and I wouldn't bet against Antarctica either.
@@patriciafoster9337 Agreed
the band being made up as statues is an underrated part of this awesome vid
Everything with JP Leppäluoto is unbelievable!
This is by far the most beautiful thing I've heard for years! It is a perfect duet, perfect picture, perfect execution. I applaud standing.
I'm here praising JP to the high heavens but let's not forget Heidi who dreamed all of this up. Love you, Heidi!
Heard this song not too long ago... instantly became my favourite song, over any Nightwish song. Absolutely amazing! Please have JP featured in more songs, his voice is fantastic!! It's an incredible addition to your wonderful voice.
Dark Sarah Deserves more recognition!! Heidi is an amazing performer and singer!! Her previous band has lost a lot with her departure.
Been looking for this song for years.
I love the chorus. Both their voices sound beautiful singing it.
Thank you Finland for showing us there is life outside the box
ive been lookig for this genre of music for literally ages and im so happy i found it
Her Nail Polish matches his Vest. Two people with musical chemistry and child like fun!!!!! How can you just watch this once?!?!
I really need this to be turned into a full length opera. It would be so good.
I recommend the Musical Love Never Dies to you, has a similar vibe.
@@madphantom7161 I'll look that one up.
It's called Golden Moth...
True
What a shame I didn't discovered this Masterpiece earlier 😳
I am just seeing this video and I love the vocals and I love the aesthetic. I don’t know who she is but she is beautiful and has a beautiful voice!
I can't believe what I've been missing out on, because while I was listening to metal bands Like metallica and Slipknot, and amongst other things, there was this whole other kind of music out there. Of course I'm from American so that would explain it. It's all about the pop over here, not talent. But symphonic metal bands sure out shine any other category in my opinion. I just love that more and more women are being involved in heavy metal and it's not all about them. They realize it's all about the music unlike pop stars. I also never liked Opera but when you combine Metal, symphonic, and an
Opera-ish singing style it just creates music that overwhelms you emotionally. That's what I like about this kind of music. The Artistry is incredible.
I absolutely agree with you! This were my feelings when I introduced myself to symphonic metal. It's so damn emotional and dense. The first band I heard was Avantasia and I never get out of this genre since :P
And imagine the love that a classical music lover would experience when he actually loves metal a lot more but still enjoys opera when discovering symphonic metal...?
I came a long path to here. More than a year. Starting with Evanescence, my base, my all-time favourite in May 2017. 6 months later - first meeting with symphonic rock/metal with Within Temptation. Then Halestorm. Godsmack. And here I come to my other favourite (equally with Ev) - Lacuna Coil. Then seriously into symphonic metal - Nightwish, Xandria, Amberian Dawn, Imperia, now Sirenia. And I find this. It has absolutely worthed it.
But still this love would fall short. I have and I will always have gothic metal in my heart as my core (logically as I started from Evanescence who have a lot of gothic influences) even though I love symphonic metal and though I'll surely expand my taste (I plan to be an all-genre metalhead) and probably have doom metal as another favourite subgenre.
Check out Nightwish if you haven't already!
@@Vanaathiel Great suggestion! They keep getting better each album :D
@@Vanaathiel OMG I love nightwish and their songs
This has it all, metal, theater, 2 beautiful voices .
JP would be a fantastic villain in some fantasy movie.
Yesss 😍
A disney villain? 😍😍😍
Or a vampire in a remake of Interview With The Vampire.
@@PerceptionVsReality333 yeeees
JP would be fantastic period!
I have not read the story behind it, but It is so sad when Dark Sarah tries to take the key from the dragon, 'cuz looks like he is in love with her, and when he notice her betrayal, he gives up on helping her. But anyway, Im in love with this video soo much!
Even after all this time, I still say she looks like Sarah Brightman. She's such a beautiful woman and her voice is just amazing. Like a haunting siren.
That chorus gives me the chills in the best way possible. It's such a beautiful duet.
Also, I can't be the only person who'd love to see this as a full length film, am I?
Amo sus voces , la música, la complicidad entre ellos , su vestuario , el baile y la letra ... es perfecto todo. Un tema que me gustaría dedicar alguna vez 💖
Randomly getting this song in my Spotify shuffle was a damn MIRACLE, what an absolute masterpiece of music
I almost cry every time they get to that part where she begs him to let her go and tries to take the key from his pocket. Why are you like that? Just stay with Mr Dragon, he is so sad and lonely, and so damn handsome!
I wouldn't try to get away...ever 😅😍
How did I even get here..... I'm not complaining, I just need a map
Steven Sparks you aren’t alone! UA-cam suggested this video to me about 3 months ago and I didn’t even know that Dark Sarah existed! I’m not a metal head, but I like Dark Sarah
The map is inside you ^^
Same I never even heard of this but I am not sad its beautiful
Right? I have no idea what this is but I need it!
Same
If there is a dance which can express the "ragdoll" mention, it is Tango of course. Love all the elements in this music video - everything is going together perfectly well, sounds and optics, a feast for ear and eye and more!
I think you are one of the four or five people (including music reactor types ) who knew a tango when they saw one. And of course you are correct. Chills...
this was in my recommendation list...I regret nothing
I LOVE how theatrical both the song and video are! Of all the songs that have been released so far, this is definitely my favorite! Can't wait for Friday to get here!!!
Holy cow, there are no words for what I felt when I heard this song for the first time and saw the video. I can say it was magical ✨💫🩵🌹
Captivating song, their voice blend together perfectly. And Juha-Pekka is hauntingly sexy. I'd give anything for such dance with such a man.
me too man he is awsome
Me three
I completely agree. He is very handsome and that voice gives me chills 🖤🖤
Wow, so beautiful. I've never heard of this group before, but I'm definitely checking out more of their music.
Моя любимейшая группа! Я рада, что нашла её для себя !!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My eyes and ears just had a party... and everyone was invited
You should invite your neighbors!
BytemeVV I love this comment, it describes it perfectly! 💗
When he says "You've been naughty, I know" in that Deep voice (0;17) I feel ready to spill out everything I did in the past 20 years...And the laugh at 2;40...
Не знаю, чем вы меня зацепили, но я, толком не зная английского, нашёл текст и перевод и выучил и то, и другое )) Песня звучит в голове уже несколько дней, я двадцатый раз смотрю этот ролик, и кайфую. Как же это невероятно потрясающе :-)
Thank you for your creativity. You are amazing!
Иван, согласен. Молодцы ребята.
Согласна с вами)
It pains me to be unable to leave more than one like... just rediscovered this in my list, and it is still as magnificent and captivating as I remember. Kudos!
So theatrical and beautiful 💞
This guy would be perfect in a remake of interview with the vampire.
A beautiful song really, so harmonic. Would fit a theater play very well. This song will definitely stay on my playlist for a loooong time. Would be cool to hear more Leppäluoto duets. His voice improved a lot since Charon.
I played this for my wedding for my first dance ^^
So Amazing!! I want do it too :3
I was thinking the same thing lol
I will also do that! we're already making rehearsals
Dude, epic wedding!
I'd do it too! While we sing it to each other!
Dragon: So you will be my rag doll tonight
Me: YES, PLEASE
Wow....great duet...sarah nice voice but JP is what excites me more...those good old days when he was with the band Charon...he never gets old...
Metal and opera are the best combinaison. The voices, this music, and mostly the victorians outfits are pure joy.
This is my favorite. I get when a musical turns Into heavy metal vibes. This is Disney mixed with heavy metal and turned it into a musical.
That chorus is amazing! Jp's voice is so sexy.
Oh, Yes! 😳🌊
RedEbSeb13
and his eyes....😳
HOOOLYYY CRAAAP this is my new obsession!!! I just stumbled upon this I can't believe how amazing this is!!!
Metal opera at is best ! Wonderfull music and brillant movie...👍 Thanks for this Dark Sarah
Omg. I do surrender, I surrender. Can not stop listening this chorus in my head.
The same is with me Fatima, just the same...
