Almost 12 years later and this is still one of the best music videos Ive ever seen. In my book, it would've won a grammy back when it was released.

Not only is Simone Simons incredibly talented and gifted but also she's strikingly beautiful & charismatic. A true metal goddess. Just like Tarja, Ailyn, Lori Lewis, Sharon etc, just to cite a few. We're beyond lucky to being able to listen to and appreciate each and every one of them🤘

If you look at Germany and other European countries, although not as prolific, have a good Symphonic Metal culture as well. My theory is that is because classical symphonic music is more entrenched in their culture than other parts of the world. It is not uncommon for kids to be brought up listening to both Metal and Classical music. Would be interested on others thoughts about this.

Along the way I find myself To be confined within me No place for any other's mind to interfere, To grasp the meaning of it all To overcome my limits And dance away from any void and empty tones, Just tell me why Just tell me how I can survive this time Believe yourself and look away From all that's right within you Leave all your worries at the door and drift away, I’ve tried to peer into the core But could not storm the sorrow My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray Another time without a trace, Condemn me now Send me to hell For I'm already failing Intertwine the lines That swim beneath the dark Realize the pain we live in Demonize the need we reel in, no In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know Centuries of dreams unending Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed No time to ever go to waste It’s not that complicated You’re free to live your life at ease No more restrain No heed for shadows on your way That try to steal your laughter Your light will drive them all away Be confident Will I refrain? Can I repent? Will you be there? Erase the page For I’m alone and ailing Intertwine the lines That swim beneath the dark Realize the pain we live in Demonize the need we reel in, no In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know Centuries of dreams unending Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed So, this is my life And it can't break me down Go, I will decide Who can come in and heal my disease Burn it in flames Kill it and maim Why can't you see that you need to be freed? Intertwine the lines beneath the dark Every bit of pain we're feeling Every other solemn life, no In the memories you will find somehow There used to be a dream unending No more need to be alone Intertwine the lines That swim beneath the dark Realize the pain we live in Demonize the need we reel in, no In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know Centuries of dreams unending Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed

@@levalaleen5241 Nope, not joking. Currently having Epica and Sirenia as my all-time favourites in symphonic metal, Nightwish is far away, somewhere in my top 10. Why? Because I just almost never got goosebumps by their music. It's just that the choirs/vocal harmonization is a lot in the background, power metal-esque, not really high-pitched, a-v-e-r-a-g-e. While Sirenia's choir is outstanding, Epica's choir is also huge; both Epica and Sirenia have more variety - using tempo switches, growl vocals, choirs, normal female vocals, the occasional rare opera-esque vocal... this is some serious compositional diversity. And mostly, I'm getting goosebumps all the time. The Latin Sirenian choir never fails, Ailyn's voice was something unique and special in Perils and TSLP (these albums are so epic in my list that I rarely listen to them so I don't get "used to them" cuz I'm getting shivers throughout their whole entirety). And in Nightwish? Tarja's lyric soprano didn't help either cuz lyric ones don't use power in their voice, they use delicacy and they sing out long lyric lines. Which is less epic than Xandria's ex-singer Manuela Kraller who is a dramatic soprano - dramatic ones are the exact opposite - they use sheer power and can sing clearly over a full orchestra (while a lyric one can only be heard over it) or Dianne van Giersbergen who is a spinto sporano who is somewhere in between both and combines both. Anette never sung operaticly; Floor basically never sings opera and I'd rather say her vocal performance in EFMB was rather boring - she reached something like E5 or F5 in the whole album while her range reaches something like D6 (at least the new album was better, yay). Sooo here this is why I consider NW overrated

dragonzrmetal Not saying anything bad about her voice and I'm sorry to hear she's ill. What I don't really like about Unsun and many other symphonic metal bands is that there's no "grit" or attitude to the music. When I listen to Epicas "Martyr of the free word" for instance, there's a lot of that attitude that's missing from Unsuns "Whispers". You may like Unsun regardless, and that's absolutely fine. It's just not my cup of symphonic metal. :)

The growl in this song is sooo brutal and masculine. It gets me every time. The video amplifies the melody really well on that part. Masterpiece.

The end of this song gives me chills. I've been listening to alot of Lacuna Coil, Evanescence, Epica, Nightwish & all sorts of symphonic & Gothic Metal. Beautiful song.

this song can be important for ocd phobic people who now have a hard time when there really is an invisible danger of viral roulette going on. / Years ago Epicas singer Simone survived a dangerous bacterial infection. Then she developped a phobia for contamination. This song is about breaking free from that mental health issue.

I have already got Epica's album Requiem For The Indifferent on CD!

***** At least they did. Don't forget that Nightwish fired their operatic vocalist, Tarja Turunen, in October of 2005, and hired a classic rock vocalist by the name of Anette Olzon as their new frontwoman in 2007. Ms. Olzon was fired in September of 2012, and the frontwoman of ReVamp (as well as the the former frontwoman of After Forever), Floor Jansen, (a good friend of both Nightwish and Ms. Turunen) was asked to step in for the rest of the tour (both legs in the Americas), and was subsequently confirmed as the new vocalist in October of 2013. Nightwish released their first studio album with Ms. Jansen as their frontwoman at the end of last month. They could once again do the opera-meets-metal thing to the fullest, because Ms. Jansen is a proper metal vocalist who has operatic capabilities, but they don't want her using her operatic technique (though apparently "Stargazers" has made a reappearance on the setlist - the first time since 2004 - and she uses it there), instead focusing on other aspects of her brilliant voice..

If you like the opera and metal mix, check Marchenbilder, Gone in April and Diabulus in Musica!

Her voice... I really love it😍😍😍😍💕

I can't handle Simone's voice. I'm always looking for a song that won't mesmerize me, but it's never happened. Even after listening to the same songs after one hundred years, she still makes me cry.

I'm going to see them live tomorrow, I can't wait!

She's beautiful.

She's probably a siren. You better run away before it's too late! I'm already under the spell of her voice, so it's too late for me, but it might not be too late for you!

Is it even possible for a redhead to have blue eyes? Seems extremely uncommon, they're usually green or hazel

Maarten Lauwereys I've seen images of her on her Instagram with different hair colours, I saw one of her which looked like Floor Jansen and one which she looked like Alissa White-Gluz

gofojibwas Natural redheads are almost always blue-eyed, maybe sometimes green-eyed(though I've never seen one) but NEVER brown or hazel. Goes against genetics.

AWESOME WORK of EPICA!!! by NuclearBlastRecords ofc!!!

This might actually be my favourite music video of all time. I love its art direction so much

Epica é top demais bixo !! 🖖

This song is so underrated

Music like this should be fucking mainstream. Not the pop shit we get shoved down our throats today. It's almost hurtful how many people will remain ignorant of amazing music like Epica and all the other great bands out there simply out of lack of exposure (compared to all the other shit). It's just sad.

Agreed about the lack of exposure. Plenty of people would love this music if they just knew it existed. Sadly people generally only rely on mainstream radios so they miss great, intelligent music :/

Popularity kills quality. I want my metal bands obscure and unloved. That way I know that they'll make their own music, not cater to the masses and make crap, like pop does.

Music like this will not go mainstream with grunts and growls. It is also too heavy for regular radio airplay, and it is too European. Simone isn't 17 years old anymore, and the U.S. market loves their Lolita pop stars. Yeah, it is just sad.

Eu não me canso de assistir esse vídeo,Simone e o Epica são fantásticos.

*Storm The Sorrow* Ao longo do caminho eu me encontro Para ser confinado dentro de mim Sem lugar para a mente de qualquer outro interferir Para entender o significado de tudo Para superar meus limites E dançar longe de qualquer vazio e tons vazios Apenas me diga por que Apenas me diga como eu posso sobreviver desta vez Acredite em si mesmo e olhe para longe De tudo o que está bem dentro de você Deixe todas as suas preocupações na porta e vá embora, Eu tentei perscrutar o âmago Mas não consegui atacar a tristeza Meu coração vazio me sangrou até secar, me deixou perdido Outra vez Sem deixar rastros Me condene agora Mande-me para o inferno Pois eu já estou falhando Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade que temos em nenhum Em minhas memórias eu cavarei fundo o suficiente para conhecer Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu Não há tempo para desperdiçar Não é tão complicado Você é livre para viver sua vida à vontade Sem mais restrições Sem atenção às sombras em seu caminho Que tentam roubar seu riso Sua luz irá afastá-los todos Seja confiante Vou me abster? Posso me arrepender? Você estará lá? Apague a página Pois estou sozinho e doente Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade em que não temos Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para conhecer Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que derramou lágrimas quando alguém traiu Então Está é a minha vida E isso não pode me derrubar Vá, eu decidirei Quem pode entrar e curar minha doença Queime-a em chamas Mate-a e mutilar Por que você não pode ver que você precisa ser libertado? Entrelace as linhas sob a escuridão Cada pedaço de dor que estamos sentindo Cada outra vida solene, não Nas memórias você encontrará de alguma forma Costumava haver um sonho sem fim Não há mais necessidade de ficar sozinho Entrelace as linhas Que nadam sob a escuridão Perceba a dor em que vivemos Demonize a necessidade que sentimos Em minhas memórias vou cavar fundo o suficiente para saber Séculos de sonhos sem fim Outro eu que rendeu lágrimas quando alguém traiu Alguém traiu

I love Simone's cat claws at 4:27

This has got to be my favorite video ever.

This video made me cry tears of happiness. ...thank you all.
