Thank you Vlad! Thank you Amy! You are beautiful and meaningful to me too. You've made each year a little better for me and I know it will be always like that, as long as this channel exists. Thank you for this gift and the message, for your big hearts and for everything that you do! Happy New Year to you! May it bring a lot of happiness, love, laughter and good music to your lives! 🖤 But I have to comment on the song as well. I loved it. Musically it was great from the start to the end. I love that little touch of progressive sound, I love the molodic lines throughout the song and what stood out the most for me is probably the bass. I must admit that it doesn't remind me of any of the popular, big bands that I know, but it reminds me a lot of some of Spanish heavy metal/hard rock music. It has the same texture, the same sound of the instruments and the same approach to music, I'd say. The only thing which is different is the voice, but I'll be honest, I wasn't able to place it anywhere specifically. Probably because I am not familiar with Romanian folk music. Anyway, I really loved the song and, once again, thank you. It was beautiful. Sending lots of love from Belgrade! 🖤
Thank you very much for this video, Amy and Vlad ! (Multumesc frumos!). I remember buying the LP with the rock compilation. I was in high school at that time, in Cluj-Napoca, not far from Oradea, but a little further from Timisoara. "Iarba prin par" was my favorite. And in 1987- the first album, was another surprise with "Un sfarsit e un inceput". I wish you "Happy New Year"/ An Nou Fericit !
You're my favorite reactor on RUclips. I love that you don't get so caught up in the lyrics of the songs or the videos and the visuals. You concentrate on the music and how it makes you feel. Awesome. By the way... You need to react to steely Dan. Aja.
Thank you Amy & Vlad, really enjoyed your content and appreciate the professonality, through which i got a richer view on pieces i already knew. Lucky new year 2025 to you and Community, may our experiences lead us to a good tomorrow
I'm sure that in 2025 I'll enjoy your wonderful channel more than I did in 2024! My best wishes for a fantastic new year and a big big thank you from Milan-Italy ❤❤❤❤ And a special hug to your lovely little one!
Happy new year Amy I've been binge watching you show. I like the way you have gone out of your comfort zone and the fact that you don't negatively criticize the new music you are listening to but find the interesting things within it. I find interested people interesting.
Happy New Year to you Amy and Vlad. Happy New Year to everyone here on the Virgin Rock channel, everyone who shares this incredible journey with Amy. The end is the new beginning! O fim é o novo começo!
Happy New Year Amy and a warm thank you for your videos. Just for laugh, when I read this video tittle, I expected that video dealt with Abba's Happy New Year you introduced in Abba's The Winner Takes It All. I didn't know this song (Happy New Year) I discovered thanks to you. I appologize for my poor English level.
What a sweet video. Excellent music! I just want to mention that you guys with your musical analysis and superb prompts and editing have really been a source of joy for me. I'd love to see you guys tackle Tom Waits or (when it's musical) Captain Beefheart.
Thank you for opening my eyes to see the music I love from such a fresh and different insightful perspective. Happy New Year to you both and I am looking forward to much more.
Happy New Year! I really enjoyed this one. Particularly your closing remarks Amy, which were both powerful and beautiful, particularly how you tied it all back to your community that you have come to know. I enjoyed the music of this Romanian band, particularly the guitars. They sounded very much like Thin Lizzy (more so than Led Zeppelin or Metallica; particularly in the guitars), so I wonder if they also had them as an influence. I hope Thin Lizzy shows up here, they are a great 70s rock band. Great reaction Amy! Thanks Vlad for introducing us to a band from where you grew up. Wishing Virgin Rock and your community a great and fulfilling new year!
Happy New Year, my dear friend! May it be filled with happiness and good music! 🖤 I've just written a comment and said that this didn't really reminded me of any big, popular band that I know (except for some Spanish bands), but I guess that I haven't listened to Thin Lizzy. Maybe I should give them a try, since I really loved this song and I like this sound.
Happy New Year to you both!!! Cutting in at 15.30, as a nearly 70 yr old, I cannot hear Led Zep or Metallica(not really a fan). But definitely hearing Queen!!!!!
Happy new year, and thank you so much for introducing me to a new sound. This year's been an experience for many people I know, so this song really hits home.
Thank you Vlad for choosing this for New Years for so many of us who are not celebrating the New Year because of the worries we have about where our Country is going. It is appreciated. You expressed those worries well, Amy.
Happy new year Amy and Vlad 🎉 Amy pointed out Stairways to Heaven as an influence for the intro. What stroke me most for the rest of the song was a typical 80's Iron Maiden riffing. I am sure Vlad, as a fine metal genre connaisseur will have noticed it. Amy, I wonder how a classical musician like you could react to some of their most epic and built up 80's songs like Rime of the Ancient Mariner, or, 7th son of a 7th son. However, this is my wish for 2025 !
I don’t know anything about music, but what I hear sometimes in voice (like at 9:05 - 9:10) and sometimes on the guitar (like near the beginning) is a kind of subtle, tickling dissonance, playing around with microtones or something. As a teenager I was in Romania in the mid-70s, and the “folk” bands (often gypsy bands, and also, I suspect, jobbing classical musicians, and all sorts) the violinists in particular were very, very accomplished. You should also consider that this band has been going since the early 70x, and that some of the influences were coming from as well as to them.
Happy New Year! Amy, for this occasion, please, react to "The End Is The Beginning Is The End" by Smashing Pumpkins. There are 2 completely different versions of the song. One was for the Batman And Robin movie soundtrack and and the other used for The Watchmen movie soundtrack. It would be great it you compared both versions. Edit: The Watchmen version is called "The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning". The chorus of both songs do use the same lyrics, thus the confusion. There's also "The End Is Over" by Powerman 5000 for the Titan AE movie soundtrack.
Hi, has Vlad shown you the Smiths, a very Influential 80's band, kind of angst ridden lyrics that young folks related to (including myself). Lead singer is Morrissey. Please listen to 'How Soon is Now'
Happy New Year! It would really make my day if you could review Metallica's live "No Leaf Clover". They collaborated with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. I am curious about your views on the merger of the two!
I'll leave you with a New Year's wish: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood (Live at the El Mocambo) Please React to the song and Video too. Happy New Year to you all
Just because Pope Gregory XIII says it’s the end of the year, doesn’t mean I want to celebrate it. I’ll continue to celebrate lunar new year. Makes more sense to me.
THANKS A LOT!I WILL SEARCH THEM.I LIKE ROMANIAN FOLK,ESPECIALLY DUETS ON THE ROAD .I HAVE HEARD THEM PLAY VIOLIN SOLOS IN ATHENS IN UNBELIEVABLE SPEED!GYBSY TRADITION I THINK.FOLK MUSIC IS THE MUSIC FROM THE SOUL OF THE NATIONS. THAT'S WHY I LIKE IT
@@epikourosallebook790 You're welcome! ❤ No, it's not Gypsy tradition. Gypsy music was influenced by Romanian folklore in Romania, by Hungarian folklore in Hungary, etc. Traditional Gypsy music sounds like "Dicta Mamo Chi Bori" song. 🙂
Magnificent song, reaction and happy New Year. Vlad was a Romanian warrior ? This song is for Chinese New Year, date 29 of this month. m.ruclips.net/video/ZXRmy0dhZVE/видео.html

I would recommend also Bucium, an album called "Miorita".
A song from this album is Bucium - Rai (Heaven)
Some beautiful thoughts there. Thanks, Amy, and Happy New Year! 🙂
very cool thanks 😎
big guitar solos had me thinking of Boston's "More Than a Feeling"

Happy New Year
The Moody Blues “Days of future Passed” is a great album about the passing of time
Happy New Year to Amy, Vlad and the entire Virgin Rock community! Many good memories; looking forward to new discoveries in 2025.
I usually turn off videos of bands that I don't know but I stayed and it's really good it refreshes my soul as if all the poisons are filtered out!!!🎉
Out with the old, and in with the new, Amy & Vlad!
Celelalte cuvinte, was an unespected surprise ( a nice one)
Happy new year Amy I've been binge watching you show. I like the way you have gone out of your comfort zone and the fact that you don't negatively criticize the new music you are listening to but find the interesting things within it. I find interested people interesting.
Happy new year to you!!
This ABBA song gets to me, all the time.
Thank you, Vlad, for introducing me to Romanian rock music - wow!
Happy New Year, Amy!
Hey Grace, here in sunny South Africa, 5 hours to go ,but thank you, you are Super Special!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy new year to one of my favorite discoveries on RUclips in 2024! 🎉
Happy New Year to you Amy and Vlad. Happy New Year to everyone here on the Virgin Rock channel, everyone who shares this incredible journey with Amy. The end is the new beginning! O fim é o novo começo!
Thank you, Amy & Vlad, for your well wishes! A very Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year to you and yours, along with the Virigin Rock Community!
The singer's voice kinda reminds me of Trevor Horn's on YES' album 'Drama' 😀
Happy New Year to everyone reading this!

Happy new year, and thank you so much for introducing me to a new sound. This year's been an experience for many people I know, so this song really hits home.
Happy New Year Amy.
I agree about the folk influence. It reminds me a bit of Steeleye Span, who took traditional English songs and rocked them up. Happy New Year!
Happy NY Amy!
Amy, you always put my head in a good space. Happy New Year!
Happy new year from Brașov, Romania!
La Mulți Ani!🥳
Happy New Year from Canada!!!
Happy NY Amy 🎉🤓🎉
Thank you Vlad for choosing this for New Years for so many of us who are not celebrating the New Year because of the worries we have about where our Country is going. It is appreciated. You expressed those worries well, Amy.
Good Lord...

It can only get better now 😅

As a teenager I was in Romania in the mid-70s, and the “folk” bands (often gypsy bands, and also, I suspect, jobbing classical musicians, and all sorts) the violinists in particular were very, very accomplished.
You should also consider that this band has been going since the early 70x, and that some of the influences were coming from as well as to them.
I hear Queen and Rush in a big way.
Happy New Year!
Amy, for this occasion, please, react to "The End Is The Beginning Is The End" by Smashing Pumpkins. There are 2 completely different versions of the song.

Hey girl, I love you....
To some, life is one river and when it makes a turn, is not determined by some date on a calendar
about new begining a great song from the great tracy chapman i'd like to hear your analysis
Hi, has Vlad shown you the Smiths, a very Influential 80's band, kind of angst ridden lyrics that young folks related to (including myself). Lead singer is Morrissey. Please listen to 'How Soon is Now'
Although this ruins my image of Vlad as an enormous computer from Futurama .
🙂
you should try Transylvania Phoenix. Invocatie from Cantofabule maybe 🙂
Happy New Year! It would really make my day if you could review Metallica's live "No Leaf Clover". They collaborated with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. I am curious about your views on the merger of the two!
Happy new Year! I just stumbled across your Channel by your One-winged-Angel Video and was wondering if you could make a reaction to Dancing Mad?
Sounds like Romanian Triumph
I'll leave you with a New Year's wish: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood (Live at the El Mocambo) Please React to the song and Video too.
Happy New Year to you all
Just because Pope Gregory XIII says it’s the end of the year, doesn’t mean I want to celebrate it. I’ll continue to celebrate lunar new year. Makes more sense to me.
A QUESTION FOR VLAD:WHO ARE THE FATHERS OF ROMANIAN ROCk sCENE?(ROMANIAN ROCK GROUP NAME I WANT)
I think it is Phoenix (Transylvania). They were the most popular in the 1970s.
THANKS A LOT!I WILL SEARCH THEM.I LIKE ROMANIAN FOLK,ESPECIALLY DUETS ON THE ROAD .I HAVE HEARD THEM PLAY VIOLIN SOLOS IN ATHENS IN UNBELIEVABLE SPEED!GYBSY TRADITION I THINK.FOLK MUSIC IS THE MUSIC FROM THE SOUL OF THE NATIONS. THAT'S WHY I LIKE IT

@@aiziszizis2536 ok i got it. I just like what i hear man.don't search farther cos i don't know.i just like music
I KNOW THErE IS AN INfLUENCE IN ROMANIA & HUNGARY BY THe GYBSY MUSIC BUT NOTHING MORE.i just like music man
Please give a listen to my favorite Zep tune: Over the Hills and Far Away. You will be pleasantly surprised.
Happy new year!! Wish for 2025.. Judas priest ( victim of changes, live from unleashed in the east album ) ..opeth ( drapery fall )
I thought he was going to play a Ruttles song.
Magnificent song, reaction and happy New Year. Vlad was a Romanian warrior ? This song is for Chinese New Year, date 29 of this month.

Why you wear the same shirt in every video?
Can you wear a different outfit please.
I like her outfit
I like it too but not on every episode.
Midway through, the large headphones remind me of Princess Leia's hairstyle. ☺
@@karenwalsh1793 It’s her work suit. Why does she need more clothes?
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone!
