It's been 2 days, and this video got 70% of total subscribers in views, which is normal. Just need to drag viewers outside of Andy's fanbase, and this can be done by sharing, liking and puting comments (to up in youtube algo). It's only the beginning.
About 50% of my comments seem to be "why doesn't this have more views" haha. It's a shame but the numbers game with RUclips is not something I try to worry about. If I had just stuck to doing a video game cover a week when I started this channel back in 2007? I'd probably have a million subs by now, but I do so much outside RUclips that I really can't commit to consistent weekly videos (my band has 13million streams on Spotify but I have 5k subs on RUclips). I can't control the algorhythms or the subscribers, just the quality of the content. So I'll go on waiting for my big RUclips break. Right now I'm just grateful for every follower I get :)
@@andygillion 15k views for your video clip on 66Samus RUclips channel (easily going somewhere between 40k to 100k), proof it is important to have a large audience on RUclips. I think it worths its one video a week :)
This is not just music .. this is a divine message to the soul .. Goosebumps level 1000! Metal is not dead.. Hope in humanity restored 🤘 Thank you guys for this masterpiece ☝️ Added to my everyday music list ✌️👌
Been a Mors Principium Est fan for a few years now. Just came across Andy's channel and man I am impressed. For the first time since high school I'm wanting to pick up a guitar again and start writing music. This stuff is truly inspirational and I look forward to hearing more stuff.
Wtf Andy, this song is a monster of Melodic Death Metal! Those riffs are absolutely fantastic, the piano parts contain so much emotions, the solos are as beautiful and give the track another level of musicality. Sincerely, maybe the best song I heard from you, at the very least it equals you best work with MPE! I'll buy that album for sure and I'll share right away this song on some forums! \m/
Man, I remember following you since you were putting out covers of Sonic games and Streets of Rage. Now you're collaborating with Jeff freaking Loomis. Phenomenal stuff!
If they teamed up to form a band?!? 🤯 his writing is out of this world with Loomis solos (both being ridiculous rhythm/lead musicians)…. Wow, just wow.
Come on, Jari hasn't written a song like this in many moons. He's so so overrated these days, TFS was crap and nothing like the Wintersun I want to hear. He barely plays riffs or solos anymore. Some songs on the debut are amazing but man, anything since isn't that great.
Great work Andy, as always. Also IMO, this is evidence that if the style of MPE were more open to having multiple layers of epic or dramatic arrangements, the riffs would flourish into grandeur much more. You clearly have the chops for catchy, multilayered composition.
You've single handedly produced what wintersun have taken about 10 years to try and do - all without your own personal sauna, or needing 586gb of ram to record this. It's an amazing piece, wonderfully balanced and produced. Hats off to you sir!
Andy bringing in the big guns so glad to hear this and glad to see Samus perfect fit definitely! And Jeff ??? Shit I can't wait to hear all the songs. When I say to people there are super talented people you've never heard of this is a perfect example of what most people will never get to enjoy. Well done mates!
Honestly the best compliment I can give is that of any song ever written that I wish I wrote, i wouldnt pick something to bring me fame or fortune, I wish I wrote this because THIS speaks to me. This is everything I love about metal. Props sir, youve got a new fan
@@andygillion I love the way you how write songs while keeping the riffs simple but sounding great and thrashy, man! Definitely my cup of tea! Everything you've done with MPE since 2012 and also your solo stuff are under my radar; like many others around loving this genre. Some of the songs on "...and Death Said Live" are the best in recent melodeath history imho. Keep up the great work!
My favourite guitarist(s) + sam, one of my favourite drummers = perfection 👌👌 I hope to see more collabrations with sam in the future! Sounds really good
Playing this song is like a workout!! You guys must be in shape. I feel like I need to catch my breath after watching this from my couch lol. I love the Melodies and the intensity!!
I keep coming back to this because it’s so amazing. You are able to create such strong emotion even with the complex multi layered composition. Truly one of the best metal composers out there. Can’t wait to see what’s in store next
This is excellent Andy!
Thanks Ola, means a lot dude!
Ola you gotta do Coffee with Andy man. This guy is awesome!
Great stuff Ola Englund. I'll give you a hug at NAMM and tell you how great your album is as well!
Ola you should collab with andy
Such a masterpiece I’ve been listening to this song for at least over 100 times
Cheers Tommy!
When you're trying to make a classy playthrough video but Jeff Loomis films his part on a potato 😂
Perfect song though 🤘 4:51 riff is just godlike.
His music equipment makes up for it
Indeed.
When I see Jeff Loomis I click. But, seriously killer stuff.
I just keep coming back to this song
Thanks for coming back! 🤘
I'm personally offended by how few views this has 😭
More soon, brilliant work..

Cause metals dead bro. It's all about cardi b and gimmicks now. Real music died in the early 2000s
Helping a younger musician is definetely the greatest gift one can give. Well deserved and also well done Mr. Loomis.
Crazy song. Amazing. The sad chords and progressions remind me a little bit of Jewish music. Thanks for such a masterpiece man.
Thanks for listening!
Close to perfection
This is not just music .. this is a divine message to the soul ..
Goosebumps level 1000!
Metal is not dead..
Hope in humanity restored 🤘
Thank you guys for this masterpiece ☝️
Added to my everyday music list ✌️👌
I got Wintersun vibes from this,very good job btw
FORSURE I HOUGHT THE SAME THING
It sounds exactly like Wintersun. They've carved out a niche for themselves and it sounds so good
Battle Against Time for sure, and the middle section in Winter Madness
Epic
This kind of MUSIC must have billions of listeners...
Been a Mors Principium Est fan for a few years now. Just came across Andy's channel and man I am impressed. For the first time since high school I'm wanting to pick up a guitar again and start writing music. This stuff is truly inspirational and I look forward to hearing more stuff.
Amazing to read comments like these. So grateful that I can pass on any inspiration to you Tony. Keep doing what you love!
There are probably only around 5000 people in the world who could play this. Excellent work on guitar and drums
This is classical music made in metal, great musicians!
Thank you!
You may be the best guitarist I’ve ever seen.

Thank you so much for your support!
Randomly found and clicked ok this...okay, I'm STOKED to hear something like this again. Wow. All of my yes!
A melodic shreding guitarist with a drummer who is just as energetic, amazing 👏 👏👏✌️
I’m ashamed I haven’t listened to this song sooner, as well as the rest of the album. This is glorious! Amazing work Andy, Samus and Jeff!
Thank you James!
Andy is half the reason why i listen to MPE. I love his guitar work
Holy crap!
That non-dystopian future from ‘Bill & Ted’, where music has made the world a better place .....
This must be on their playlist. 🤘
People here you guyz have superior taste in music. Great stuff
Man, I remember following you since you were putting out covers of Sonic games and Streets of Rage. Now you're collaborating with Jeff freaking Loomis. Phenomenal stuff!
I see your WWE reference with Seth Rollins
How the fuck can anyone who calls themself a metal head not like this!
Haven't stopped listening since the day this came out. Best song of 2019, anyone?
Man this is epic! The composition is as impressive as the performance. That drummer is insane!
Cheers Mike! Samus is an absolute machine!
bravo!
Sweet baby jesus this is epic
You´re in the running of being the next best trio since the Blue Man Group
Haha I'll take that any day!
👍👏 fantastic!!!!!🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
This one one of my favorite songs
Awesome stuff. Having Loomis featuring is the cherry on top
@66samus just killed this and the guitars are also flawless..great job guys..i just jammed this in my car with my system up and it killed..👌💯🤘
Great song, playing, riffs... everything about it...
Jari, from Wintersun would be proud...
For the inspiration .
🤘👍🤘
Dude, he’s from MPE
Thx for my first ranked map !! Love this song
I don't know what a ranked map is but I'm happy if I aided in any way with your achievement haha :D
@@andygillion Actually i found this song with fa page on osu so i deceided to map it !
Get Jari Mäenpää to sing on this!!!! Epic as fvckkkkkkk
Yeahhh fucking right !!! 🤘
Wintersun \m/
“My face turned pale before the cold eyes of death.”
Damn..totally agree with u
True this
My favorite thing has to be the backing tracks with the orchestral elements. Really brings it to life bruh!
Single now on Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/5sys9AW20Dc7jLb65oM90a
Sick stuff, reminds me of Wintersun
Listen to Mors Principium Est
Wintersun? dude, you should listen more.
If they teamed up to form a band?!? 🤯 his writing is out of this world with Loomis solos (both being ridiculous rhythm/lead musicians)…. Wow, just wow.
6:08 that entire part of the song reminds me so much of old MPE. I’m so glad Andy joined the band. He really is the best fit.
the song is so glued together, the transitions between sections are so smooth.
I love the view of 66samus footwork superimposed on the toms. Brilliant
This deserves more recognition
This video needs to be shared like millions of times
This is a little masterpiece, no doubt
Out of this World...
Brilliant track Andy! And having JL is just a wonderful desert to an already fabulous meal!
Cheers dude!
Looks like Jari of Wintersun got a competitor 😁 Love both of your styles 🤘🏼
I agree. Very Wintersunish. Love it! Bonus points with Loomis. :-)
it's like wintersun minus the mud
alex nova wintersun is a little muddy on time, the first album wasn’t quite as crowded in the mix
Mors principium est.
If you didn’t know bro!
Come on, Jari hasn't written a song like this in many moons. He's so so overrated these days, TFS was crap and nothing like the Wintersun I want to hear. He barely plays riffs or solos anymore. Some songs on the debut are amazing but man, anything since isn't that great.
I really had to buy the album right away when I saw this epic piece of music.
Thanks for your support, it means a lot!
I've been casually introducing a few non metal friends to this and the response is overwhelming. Andy, you are a GOD!!!
I needed that, thanks man.
You're welcome!
Still listening to this. Thank you for your contributions to music, been with you since MPE!
Super excellent wonderful..otro nivel fuera de serie 👍
Still so good
I can't stop coming back to this song and loving it more every time

😅 I was really never one to enjoy a sauna. Big fan of the Wintersun gang so it's nice to have the music compared to them. Cheers Spencer.

When I say to people there are super talented people you've never heard of this is a perfect example of what most people will never get to enjoy. Well done mates!
I came for Jeff. Wasn't disappointed.
Andy, everything you write is a masterpiece!!! No exception here. Awesome!
Cheers dude!
Best track from the album hands down, the sense of melody is simply insane.
Best RUclips recommendation ive clicked on, absolutely love this!
I just love it.
Thank you for existing Andy
gosh, I love everything about this song. the rhythms towards the end are mind blowing, man
Thank you!
Honestly the best compliment I can give is that of any song ever written that I wish I wrote, i wouldnt pick something to bring me fame or fortune, I wish I wrote this because THIS speaks to me. This is everything I love about metal. Props sir, youve got a new fan
That drumming was CRAZY
This is great! Jeff nailed it! I hear some Omnium Gatherum here and there btw.
Absolutely loved it from start to finish!
Cheers, I'm good friends with the Omnium boys as we've toured together a few times

Great music, thanks you.
Some of the BEST instrumental music I've ever heard. Damn, I'd love to hear an entire album.
2:00 Wintersun vibe absolutely love it
Fantastic riffs and melodies as always! Cool that 66samus joined in too, such a talented drummer.
he is an absolute beast!
WOW!
Dem Keys though..... Great composition 🤘🤓🤘

Absolutely killer tune...great tone

Album is fucking amazing, this is my favourite.
Playing this song is like a workout!! You guys must be in shape. I feel like I need to catch my breath after watching this from my couch lol. I love the Melodies and the intensity!!
the solo is just beyond belief \m/
I keep coming back to this because it’s so amazing. You are able to create such strong emotion even with the complex multi layered composition. Truly one of the best metal composers out there. Can’t wait to see what’s in store next
