EPICA "Tides of Time"
I concur....
Indeed!! Such a beautiful song..
epica unleashed live official video
Dude, been dying for you to do this one, knew it would break you in all the right ways. Simone voice is so wonderfully haunting, and Isaacs guitar work is perfectly complementary to her.
Pure art... Epica is on a different level!
Just can say,, great song!!!
Once Upon a Nightmare was the second of two ballads recorded in a single take for Omega Alive. The other was Rivers which she sings ‘a capella’ with just a choir for backing. It is stunning to listen to the two back to back.
For more of Simone just showing off: Rivers. Any version is amazing, but I personally think her vocal delivery at the AFAS concert with Apocalyptica was pure perfection. I also agree with those suggesting Tides of Time and In All Conscience.
"In All Conscience" is definitely underrated. For a while I was just listening to that one over and over. Helped me to get through some tough days.
Definitely Rivers, either the one with Appocolyptica or the live single shot. Both are special and outstanding in their own rights. Fuck it. Do both.
Tides of time is also a must.
Rock on, brother.
🤘😎🤘
If you want to hear something more like this, please listen to two beautifull songs Rivers and Tides of Time.
Listen Tides of time 😉
one of the best ballards ever
If you wanna "that" - chek the song "Tides of time"
its art
A really incredible song with so much feeling, I couldn't believe it when Coen started it at the anniversary concert. I just know that Epica is always worth the trip, so glad I went to Tilburg.
Rivers at AFAS would be the next logical song that showcases her voice. Also, I don't see it on your list, but she just released her first solo song, Aeterna, ft Arjen Lucassen of Ayreon. He worked with Simone on her upcoming album and this song is incredible. Another song to look at is Sirens (of Blood and Water) with Charlotte Wessels and Myrkur. They will lure you into the shallows with their singing.
Alright. next Epica - RIVERS feat. Apocalyptica Live at AFAS Live.
A couple of other suggestions if you want to focus on Simone, you can try Unchain Utopia (Omega Alive) or Blank Infinity (Paradiso - not reacted to often)
she is one of the best ....
More of that??? IN ALL CONSCIENCE - OMEGA ALIVE!
Jup
Yes, Simone at her best with the full band sound.
Its hard, i mean its really really hard to pick a Epica favorite song, so i will go with, this is in top5..
As their balads go, and the performance, ye... best one imho.
And were we right?😂 It opens up the windows of your soul…………….
I love Isaac’s guitar tone in this song and of course Simone sounds Amazing!!
This is great. As is your reaction! Oh yeah. The Gibson in the sole is a seven string, witch is pretty unusual for a Gibson.
Epica is truly a master of symphonic metal. If you wish to hear more songs where Simone leads, here are some recos apart from the ballads:
Rivers (AFAS Live 2023)
In all conscience (Omega Alive)
Tides of time
Dreamscape
Solitary ground
Unchain utopia (Omega Alive)
Reverence
Burn to a cinder
Blank infinity (Retrospect 2013)
Some raw Simone in Epica at The Orchard: "Blank Infinity". Shes god like
Go do Tides of times (for me there is no good live version on it so go with the studio one) and check her singing in the apocalyptica song Rise again (live or studio both are good (i pref the studio one for once))
If you like to hear Simone alone, check out her single with another great composer behind it..
It's weird being a committed metalhead and then you discover that you just want to listen to beautiful sopranos.
As a metalhead who truly enjoys symphonic metal I am thankful to a lot of very good symphonic metal bands like Therion, Delain, visions of Atlantis, within temptation, Nightwish etc. that were my gateway eventually up to the greatness of Epica and Simone 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Well, the premiere is only a few days ago, but let me already give you a siggestion for the continuation of your journey. "Once Upon a Nightmare" is from the album "The Hollographic Principle". I suggest you check out the title track of that album called "The Holographic Principle - A Profound Understanding of Reality". It's the big song from that album, and probably one of the most symphonic songs by Epica (it is still definitely metal). There are no HQ live videos for this song, anyway, I good live performance will full impact would only be possible with orchestra and choir. There is a very nice fan made lyric video of the song. I uggest you check that one out ua-cam.com/video/CYlQJ_t2iks/v-deo.html
If you want more of that:
- In All Conscience (Omega Alive)
- Rivers (Live @ AFAS Live, feat. Apocalyptica)
- Tides of Times (No good live video, but such an beautiful song!!)
Serenade of-self destruction retrospect, Víctims of contingency Omega Alive, Avalanche Requiem for indiferent!!
De las baladas más hermosas de Epica, 👏👏👏👏
yes! good choice
🤘🤘🤘
This is definitely the best online concert I've seen. That's very beautiful.
I’ll offer something a little different from them, a very hit song, a guest vocalist (clean vocal), a very cool groove riff, a very unexpected and cool twist 🎷:
Epica - Final lullaby feat Shining (official video)
I think it is time for Cry for the moon, if you not done it already. :)
When you get around to doing "Rivers", make sure you check the one from Omega Alive! Not only is "Once Upon a Nightmare" a one-shot take (no cuts in the video), it's in fact a single take for both of these two songs.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the tails (reverberating echo) from "Rivers" at the start of "Once Upon a Nightmare".
I know there are other good versions of "Rivers" as well, and especially the live one with Apocalyptica at AFAS is also worth doing. Why not to both in a single reaction video?
Stabat Mater, a duet with Floor, also great
Question for guitar players: is this hard to play, the solo etc? or just good writing? just curious:)
Reaction to EUZEN !!

Hi MegaDog, do you know how the 2ndsouls are doing, I sent Tom an email but never got any response.
@@frank1963 yes Frank they are well they jus had some family pass away and they are busy buildin their house
Hey bro I keep trying to jump into patreon I got the money in it but it keeps telling me to agree to chat guidelines and I don't know where to find that.
Great reaction to one of my favorite Epica songs. Inspired by the dark German fairytale about the Alder King or Erlking who steals the souls of children who linger to long in the woods by killing them with a single touch. The male voice here is the evil enchanter trying to lure the young traveler to his side with promises of power and tender care by his daughters. Simone has said the song is symbolic of being stuck in a life without a happy ending and how our innocence is taken away from us as soon as we are born.
One of my favorite Epica performances is this 4 song acoustic set at Pinkpop in 2010. Starts with a beautiful acoustic version of Tides of Time, then Solitary Ground, then Quietus, and ends with This is the Time. ua-cam.com/video/ERQmengyF1I/v-deo.htmlsi=o7NaFQbn8mii9C2y. You get to really hear Simone's voice in a very intimate setting. The studio version of Tides of Time is also fantastic and has fantastic instrumentation that you don't get with the acoustic version. I also love the music video for Solitary Ground so you could do a double reaction for Tides of Time or Solitary Ground. Another song where I love Simone's voice is Sirens- of Blood and Water. You get not only Simone but also Charlotte Wessels and Myrkur as mermaids/sirens in a song inspired by the original Little Mermaid tale (not the Disney version) with a dark twist.
Epica is fantastic, will see them in September in Amsterdam. Still wondering if you will ever react to J-Metal - Lovebites, Band Maid or Babymetal. You are so MUCH missing 🎸🖤
