Lyrics: The Bee
[Verse 1]
A fire in the sky
Ablaze the spark beyond the stars
Its gleaming wings will cut their way
Through the silent paths of space
Planets whirl, suns are lit
Mountains fly, stars are dimmed
Its golden sabres tear through time
[Bridge 1]
In the night of the river of death
Fly the silent prince electors
[Verse 2]
On the banks of Tuonela
Bleach the skeletons of kings
Their skulls of sugar sickly sweet
Their bones piled up on the shore
On bed of mottled rocks
Amid flowers cold as ice
Pray the weak, the old, the poor
[Chorus 1]
And when the tiny one from heaven comes
Crawls inside the chosen skull
And when the tiny one it summons the others
To crawl inside the chosen skull
[Verse 3]
They build their castles in the heads of kings
Bring life to the empty halls
They build their castles in the heads of kings
And honey will flow once more, once more
[Bridge 2]
In the night of the river of death
Fly the silent prince electors
[Chorus 2]
And when the tiny one from heaven comes
Crawls inside the chosen skull
And when the tiny one it summons the others
To crawl inside the chosen skull
[Verse 4]
They build their castles in the heads of kings
Bring life to the empty halls
They build their castles in the heads of kings
And honey will flow once more, once more

Honey has never been this metal
Well, watch this: ua-cam.com/video/iANzjrGPYE4/v-deo.html :D
Nor the bee 🤘🏻
Dublis91 Murp: Honey Is Bee Puke
Tiamat’s Wildhoney was pretty metal :)
You must be the most enjoyable father and son duo in youtube to react to music videos, greets from Finland :)
totally. greetz from fin also from here o7
I agree. I bet they are from Canada? The finnish people has immigrated into Canada back in the days, and I don't know if there's any connection to this.
@@atmo420 Howdy partner :)
@@janinieminen4445 Well, the more we have this what we are listening right now, the merrier :)
Let em all know that the best metal bands comes from Finland, we all know that? we do but wont agree to it if you are foreigner, i do know this, 37years in Finland 32 years of metal in my life, going strong :)
Matti Kautto wrote on other page where the lyrics of this particular song is based:
"Amorphis has a lot of songs that are referring to the old stories from the Finnish national epic "Kalevala". This song is about the hero Lemminkäinen dying and being sent to the river Tuonela (the underworld) and his mother going to fetch him back. His mother sews his body back in one piece and the sky god Ukko sends a bee from the heavens to blow life back into him. There is a very famous painting of this called Lemminkäinen's mother by Akseli Gallen-Kallela.
Also, their song Silent Waters is about the same thing, but mainly from the mother's point of view (as far as I understood it)."
Here is the link to the painting. Notice the bee in the painting =)
artsandculture.google.com/asset/lemmink%C3%A4inen-s-mother/aQHH2Cq4Yz-KEg?hl=en
The whole album (Silent Waters) is about Lemminkäinens (impossible) quest to kill the white swan (check out The White Swan!) as a part of 3 difficult tasks to win the hand of one of the Queen Louhis daughters
Dude, thanks for this explanation 👍 That's very informative
Is that not the most metal shit, though?
This is beautiful story! Thanks for sharing it to us!
Amorphis has many songs based from Kalevala which is the Finnish folklore and mythology. In this song they mention Tuonela which is the realm of the dead in Kalevala. Tuoni and Tuonetar are the rulers of Tuonela.
Amorphis was probably the first Finnish death metal band to get popular abroad. I remember being so hyped when MTV Headbangers Ball played Finnish music video Amorphis - My Kantele at late 90's.
elegy is one of the best albums from the 90's
First MTV video was Black winter day.
That dude has one of the best growls in the business
I think we heard this song now over 10 times and I can’t stop it
A&P-REACTS yeah it's good stuff! You should check out Terra Nil or Vessels by Purest of Pain. The guitarplayer for symphonic metal band Delain started her own melodic deathmetal band. You might like it.
Majestic beast. That's where the epic growl's at.
Okay bees are metal now! One kick ass song. Amorphis never fails
Thanks guys for "judging" this. I'm a Finn and feel so proud to hear your comments! Amorphis, Nightwish, Wintersun etc. you name it!
Amorphis is so good. They just keep getting better and better! The singer Tomi Joutsen has perhaps the best growling vocals in metal IMO
Best, nah. But probably the most recognisable. He sounds like a freaking troll
Tomi is very good, one of the best. But others strong vocalists are Seth from Septicflesh, Gregor from Vallenfyre, Ola from Grave, George from Cannibal Corpse. I listen much death and doom metal bands, brilliant vocalists are here.
Johan hegg for me
well my top two would be Johan Hegg ofcourse and Christian Älvestam
Peter Tägtgren, Hypocrisy, in my opinion. Check out their Sofia concert live video, the most epic showcase of the best growls in metal.
always wondered how Finland is the best when it comes to any genre of metal, i mean most of the best stuff come from Finland =D
Long dark winters. Oh man are they long and dark. lol
Actually I kinda disagree. Tons of good stuff from Finland but I don't see them being the master of any genre, maybe on the Folk Scene? Nah Ukrainian are so good in this realm.. Black, Nah Norway, France and East must be the best scenes for this..
Let's say they just have greats bands and this "finnish style" you can immediatly recognize, cold melodies, something almost reassuring , really "Christmas stuff" with all the keyboards, stereotyped, but honnestly I god damn love it !
@@Scorpioide Finland has the BEST melodeath bands. Period.
@@kanervatie Long and dark and full of terrors? :D
@ And alot of the better death / black and other metal bands too
This song is still blowing my mind away. It goes on repeat 24/7 almost! :)
We played it at least 6 times on the drive to Priest and back yesterday....
I have goosebumps from head to toe EVERY time I hear this ❤️😍❤️ I've loved Amorphis always, I'm from Finland 🤘I have the Queen Of Time cd and t-shirt 🤘🤘
I am as impressed as you guys. Since I recorded my reaction last night I have heard it a few more times and I will %100 be getting this album. First time hearing these guys and they blew me away.
x666xIronMaiden first time? Really? New to metal or...?
Was my first time too :)
Welcome to the world of Amorphis :)
Oh man, you've got one hell of a discography to explore. Enjoy!
Amorphis never disappoints :)
This will be one of the best albums this year😍
Agreed !..!(-.-)!..!
I sooooooooo agree again! This song is pure masterpiece.
I can feel this song all over my body. A warm wave goes though my legs, my arms get goosebumps, my toes curl, butterflies in my stomach
This was the first time I heard this new song too and it’s sooooo good!! I’ve loved Amorphis for a long long time and now I’m really excited for the new album! Your reaction was pretty much right in line with how I felt listening to it with you for the first time! Great job! Now you know what I’m gonna ask for! Battlecross and Sylosis!!!
Hey guys greetings from Finland, really like the channel. Keep up the good work🤘
Thank You two...Perfection all the way...You two rock, big time👊
I agree. I cannot get enough of this song!!
I dig what you guys do. Much appreciation! Also equally amazed by the song & the entire new album. Hope you guys make it to Tuska!
The new album is incredible
Amorphis never disappoints. My favorite band forever 🤘
You're goddamn right!
Noe Black Moon can't wait to see them with Dark Tranquillity on October.
Seeing them in Sept
This song blew me away as well when I did my reaction video to it!! This is the song that really made me get into this band, can't wait for the new album 🤘🤘
Great reaction , guys. I'm really happy to see how you speak about them. They are one of my favourite bands 😍
Finally get to see Amorphis live this November. I am beyond excited.
Ur reactions guys are so priceless! I Love that! 🤘❤🤘
I'm proud of your dad and you, it must be incredible to share music taste! Take care of you both
You know, I've already listened to this song like 50 times and the good thing is, that even after all those repetitions, I was still as exited about seeing you do this reaction video than if I was when I got the info that the video was out.
By the way I did exactly what Antonio said he wanted to do and immediately went back to their older albums. Amorphis have such an insane backlog of awesome songs ranging from death metal to more folkier, progressive stuff, but I still feel that with every new album they get better and better.
There, I said it. I would have never expected that Amorphis could do even better than they did with Under the Red Cloud, but from this song alone, I'm kinda convinced that I was totally wrong. Most certainly my album of the Year in 2018
Amorphis is just too good to fail your expectations! I saw the request under your video and am surprised how fast you are! Well set priorities! :D
You said that you added Atlas Pain to your list. I just wanna let you know that they've released an new music video (or more like studio playthrough) a couple of days ago to their song From the Ligthhouse. To the moon is my favorite of them, but in case you prefer seeing the Band perform or see their latest stuff I can highly request the song aswell! It's a little "quieter" and more slow but also a very beautiful melody in it.
Amazing and wonderful song!!!
Amorphis are great, you're gonna love them in Semptember guys ;) And with Dark Dtranquillity, one of the best melo death bands ever. And I must say it, not only because I am portuguese but an huge fan too, Moonspell are great, amazing in every way, A blend of black, gothic and death metal. I really enjoy the video and I really hope you have a great time in that show. Cheers from Portugal \m/
This is your best reaction still today,i love Amorfis.
Great reaction as usual guys, this is one album I can’t wait for
Joutsen is an incredible singer! Amazing song!
You guys rock, love this channel
This song is just perfect harmony from the start to end. I have been playing this song like 100 times in repeat couple days. Thanks for reaction.
I had the same reaction to you when I first heard it. This was about my 4th listen and it keeps getting better. Amorphis have a unique sound, fantastic front man and consistent great song writing. Can't wait tioll 18th May. I really hope they hit the UK at some time on their tour.
Absolutely incredible
Deep, Heavy and messmerizing... incredible! \m/
I still can't get enough of this song. Unbelieveable!
Awesome song! The next time I see a bee, I'm going to proclaim it a, "Prince elector!" and look like a weirdo as I nod my head while I listen to the echoes of the song playing in my mind.
I knew you would like it, I absolutely love this song! And Amorphis is phenomenal live, I would even say they're the best live band I've seen. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Chills down my spine, I'm buying this album!
Joshua Coe got the same feeling Bro , their sound rattled my bones in an awesome way ! Cheers
What a song! Absolutely the best thing i've heard this year!
Agree 💯
A very impressive song! Thank you guys! 😊

Hey Guys! You two are adorable I really enjoy watching your videos! Sending love from Europe 💋💋
Cheers ❤️❤️❤️
The switch of Tomi's voice from clear singing and the growling and back again is bombastic! For me he is the best singer in the world. He is amazing 🤯
So true!!
So glad you both agree. It’s one of the most beautifully brutal storytelling in song form. Paints such a vivid picture and what a cool story! 11/10!!
Very cool and interesting lyrics in this one!
This has to be one of the best songs of all time. I heard it a day ago for the first time and for the first time in my life I was out of breath at the end of a song just from listening.
So much energy is just incredible.
Just wow. I need to listen to the whole album. Like. Right. Now!
HELL YEAH
they're getting better with each album, this song is a beautiful taste of what is coming. It has the perfect touch of melody and Tomi's vocals just fits amazing. Love Amorphis!
Hey dudes, new subscriber here! I totally agree on this video, I have listen to this song non stop rapping the fuck out of the replay button. Excuse my language. I had the same exact reaction. Im speechless of it! Overall, I'd hope to see more videos to come! Stay Metal 🤘🤘 Amorphis are my all time favourite melodic death metal. Ahhh So good to be born as a metal head!!
A big yes to this song, ola amigos, from London a bifg fan of Amorphis and you are so right thats one of the best songs I have listen for quite a while, cheers
Perkele! Great to hear new material from Amorphis. I llllove it.
And you guys are great. Time for you to come enjoy the Finnish summer of metal festivals?
How can such a small country have such huge amount of talented bands in metal?, I mean the have F all population I guess it’s generations of generations just propergating talent through blood
Oh come on, Omnium Gatherum, Amorphis, Moonsplell AND DARK TRANQUILLITY?! It's my dream concert! You are soooo lucky
Tickets were also affordable...pretty excited about it
Same here, this song did blow my mind, epic song! So GOOD!!!
Guys, I was sure you would have done this new one from Amorphis! Believe me, this is one of the songs I loved to much at the first listening. This new one is truly unbelievable beautiful! Tomi is a monster with his amazing clean vocals and his growl, one of the most deeper on the scene. And the melodies.......just wow! Their melodic taste is unbelievable. Wow, they got the better and better with each album they done, absolutely one of my favourite bands, period. Great reaction as always, brothers.
I reacted the same way the first time I heard this song...I´ve been listening to Amorphis since 1990 and this album is probably their best! This band is just amazing and live they are even better! Amazing band!
What a track
This is one of those metal songs that I have to visit again and again.
This song is alive indeed -
- Amorphis is not dead.
It just lives on,
and on,
and ...
Thanks for introducing me to this band, just purchased this CD 👍
You won't regret it.
Wow...interesting lyrics...I am quite speechless...!
Amorphis is such melodic perfection!
This song is great kombination of beautiful melodies and amazing low scream and it also has great story.
You guys are great
Just awesome song from one of the best bands in the whole world. I love your reaction - amen guys!
makes my all hair up, great new song!
I remember my first feelings when i hear amorphis song Black Embrace early 90`s, Its something special that time :)
Subscribed, nice channel!
The best Amorphis album since years! For me! Amazing song and amaxing LP!
Brilliant! I suggest to look into "Divinity" which is older song and w different singer but seriously amazing song I think.
i think Tomi J is way better singer than Pasi but honestly the Pasi era is my favourite of the band. period
Incredible song. I absolutely cannot wait til the album drops. Amorphis proves once again why they're my favorite band.
And for my recommendation.. Grave Digger - Twilight of the Gods.
Seriously, you guys will be blown away!
THEY BUILD THEIR CASTLES !!!
one of those bands i cant remember ever having a bad album
AMAZING!!!
yes this another album to look forward in 2018. Amorphis my no1 Finnish band
The whole album is fantastic. Can't get enough of it.
this one gave me goosebumps. very good melodies and singing voices (harsh and clean)
All those proud kings who once had their reign had to meet their end. Now their skulls and bones are resting at the shore of the River of Tuonela. And now the tiny bees are finding a place to build their nests in their empty skulls.
The real story behind this song stems from Kalevala and the brash warrior called Lemminkäinen. He was killed and brought to the River of Tuonela. But the love of her mother brought her mother to the River of Tuonela where she put back her son together but couldn't bring him back to life. Then, a small bee flying by agreed to give her a drop of honey for her son when she begged for it. And so her beloved son came back to life again.
Amorphis is fabulous, all time favorite of mine
This is a masterpiece ❤️
Good video guys!
You should really do Insomnium's "Winter's Gate". 40 minutes of glory.
The9thRed Fuck yes! Possibly one of their best albums since One for sorrow 🤘
Death BlackRaven666 You're right, but there was only Shadows of the dying sun between those two albums. But Winters Gate and One for sorrow are awesome!
Absolutely man. 🤘
The9thRed please do this!!!
This comes out the same day as the new At The Gates album. What a day.
Heaven of my heart next? Thanks in advance guys
!
This song is the best I've from them in a long time. Also, dig the Apocalyptica shirt. Going to see them in May!
We saw Apocalyptica last Sept. Going to see Amorphis this coming Sept. Sept seems to be a good month. lol
"(This is Mattias Kauto's comment in another video which i found interesting.)

So fucking cool ❤️
"The keyboard melody when the clean vocals kick in" is done on the guitar. Yeah. I was surprised too.
