well, Simone can sing highest notes much better now, she's now a Soprano, not a mezzo-soprano. which means she has a higher note range... she can sing lower notes and higher too. for those who said she can't sing high notes anymore... well, you know nothing, Jon Snows! 😂
Before even listening to the album and this song wholly, I knew I would love it in the little teasers they put of it in the documentary. I was not disappointed. It"s the most majestic song ever. The dreamlike beginning (a bit nightmarish with the lyrics and feel), then the heaviness of the whole song, the lyrics, the vocals, the orchestration... It's one of my favourites of the whole album, and the live rendition is as good as I would have imagined it! Thanks for the upload!
amazing, this is the song where Simone reaches her highest pitch... but she sure does it without any trouble! I love this song, hopefully they will put it on the other shows track lists !
Encontro la voz con la que se siente segura en el escenario, esa misma la uso para grabar, al menos quedo al pelo, no tiene que disimular ni esforzarse mucho.Ademas de que Mark y los demas lo han hecho muy bien, el sonido intrumental es espectacular y la letra tambien.
Exacto, en las canciones de THP la voz de Simone se escucha más natural y cómoda, y eso se notó en este concierto (por desgracia ya no puede cantar rolas como Seif al Din y Facade of Reality, pero en fin), Esta rola, A Phantasmic Parade, Universal Death Squad, Dancing in a Hurricane y Divide and Conquer le quedaron de poca madre. No sé si el sonido estuvo fallando o Mark se equivocaba pero casi no se escuchan él ni Isaac en esta rola en algunas partes. En general el desempeño fue bueno, todos tuvieron errores, Simone le cambió la letra a Edge of the Blade, se equivocó en Divide and Conquer, pero me da gusto que mínimo ya se escucha mejor en vivo. Algunas rolas como a Dancing in a Hurricane le hicieron falta sus arreglos orquestales pero espero eso lo arreglen en próximas cpresentaciones y también espero poder escuchar Once Upon a Nightmare, The Cosmic Algorithm, Tear Down your Walls y The Holographic Principle en vivo, pues hicieron falta para tener la experiencia total de este nuevo disco.
+Víctor Roberto Salazar Quintero Si, tienes razón. Imagino que las fallas se deben a que son nuevas y la falta de ensayo quizás afecte, pero en general es buen disco y en vivo se nota que da una mejor presentación que en discos pasados en los que no podían mantener las lineas de sonido y voz, además que Mark como siempre ha sido un genio con las letras. además de que suena el instrumental muy bien y así podemos ignorar la falla o baja voz de Simone.
Epica at their best, what an amazing album, for sure one of the best of the year and for me their second best work, in my opinion The Quantum Enigma is their best work and for me the best Symphonic Metal album ever made. But it's an amazing performance and an amazing track, well done Epica
In a Q&A she said that she has a soprano range, but she can't keep the head voice extremely long. I thought it was a C6 or even a D6, but i'm not a musical expert.
It's the second edition of Epic Metal Fest at 013 Poppodium (location).... it also took me a second to realize it's not the year 2013, but something else :)
it has a part which it's sonority comes from black metal. (the one where Simone does that high pitch). as we all know, every kind of metal has it's own "branding" sonority and this particular Epica song has a sonority influenced by the melodies of black metal. Simone herself is a fan of black metal.
3:25 OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK
THAT WAS AMAZING
she is the best.
3:25, to those who said that Simone could not do high notes anymore :)

One of the bests musics ever!
one of my favorite songs ever,yes.
Simone excells herself in this Performance with that Epic high Note sequence.
Epica at their best, what an amazing album, for sure one of the best of the year and for me their second best work, in my opinion The Quantum Enigma is their best work and for me the best Symphonic Metal album ever made. But it's an amazing performance and an amazing track, well done Epica
wow 3:25
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN BEHOLD SIMONE "THE ANGEL" SIMONS!!! HOLY FUCK
PUTA QUE PARIU, QUE DLÇ DE MÚSICA
Musica en 4k , Simone eres un ANGEL!!
The note at 3:25 is a sharp B5 that may have touched a C6.
tatsächlich hab ich ein neues Lieblingsstück von Epica gefunden o__o juhu =D
Anyone else get a Otep vibe when listening to this song?
hmmmm maybe the piano, yes.
How high was Simone's highest not here?
She hits B5, it's not her highest note, but I think she never didn't hit this note for a long period like in this show.
In a Q&A she said that she has a soprano range, but she can't keep the head voice extremely long. I thought it was a C6 or even a D6, but i'm not a musical expert.
she's sung up to C#6, and in Retrospect she hits I think an E6 during the first song. I think she's always improving
no, in this show she hits B5
In retrospect she hits D6 during the first song and she hits E6 singing Storm the sorrow
I wish you could hear mark better. he sounds turned down in this song for some reason.
2013???
It's the second edition of Epic Metal Fest at 013 Poppodium (location).... it also took me a second to realize it's not the year 2013, but something else :)
hahaha sorry ... the name of the building is '013' .. maybe it's better to change the 2 in II
Changed the name ! :)
Ok!
Simone is amazing, but is anyone gonna mention how weak the growls are from the guy?
What say Simone in 00-10 sec? Black Metal song?
it has a part which it's sonority comes from black metal. (the one where Simone does that high pitch). as we all know, every kind of metal has it's own "branding" sonority and this particular Epica song has a sonority influenced by the melodies of black metal.

Thanks for answers! From chile lml

3:37 my beloved Simone was a little bit out of tune :'(
