I can't imagine why some people would prefer the song without the Mark Jansen part. The synergy of the growling and the clean singing make this song as great as it is. Everytime i hear the song I think about an epic vocal fight between a demon and an angel.
+Dualitiy If you enjoy this kind of duett you gotta give Draconian a try :D They're a bit less melodic and more heavy in sound as they play Gothic Doom Metal, but they also feature a male growling and a female classical singer :)
I loved this when I saw it, It had such a good, blend of the female vocals the rough male vocals, the heavy metal, the female opera and classical. Such good balance, it had a real depth to the whole song, bloody marvelous
Actually Amanda has been the vocal coach of Simone on several Epica's albums, and she also coached Floor Jansen during the After Forever's time. She's always been there but not as a front stage singer.
This is unbelievably epic *_* I've heard the song loads before, but I've never seen this video, I didn't realise the choirs and orchestral instruments were all in the studio at once.
+Abbeon yep, exactly why my hair stands up straight, from sheer respect whenever I hear some of the old Nightwish songs with Tarja, listen to some of epica... oh boy, am I in for a treat until I go deaf with pleasure.
I really love Simone Simons voice and male growling and how symphonic metal music sounds here - what a perfect song..! Too sad Epica doesn't have more such cool songs as this one :(
@@cancelled_user Of course. None of the other material compares. Not only on The Phantom Agony album, but in the whole discography. Unfortunately. But anyways, I like such live sessions, it is great they recorded it! ♥️ ❤ And Simone is adorable as hell :) ❤ ♥️
cara isso sim é arte um coral com um gutural magnífico,isso sim é música e talento n essas porcarias de funk, pagode,axe,e companhia nessa droga fé país q moro
Este tema abla sobre las personas que tienen, la mente enferma y que abusan de los más sensibles , que son los niños... Felicitaciones a esta banda... Holandesa Sus temas con sabiduría...
Right, with time you'll get used to growls, I find them relaxing now that I've got used to them and I like them a lot. It makes it a bit more harsh and that is great combined with an operatic voice...
4:26 she knows this growling is absolute trash and thinks it's hilarious. I like growling a lot, two of my favourite bands are Wintersun and Dark Tranquillity, but seriously this guy sounds like shit. Good song apart from that though.
dude, I saw them 2 weeks ago, all of them had so much fun on stage, the guitar and keyboard player even went to the mosh pit to hangout with us. Is the band with best live interaction and one of the best performances I've seen so far
Epica is better than Delain, imho. Maybe even better than Nightwish, in some respects. Delain is still a great band though. Well... was a great band since it became a one-man project couple weeks ago :-(
+Allen Zillmer u guy,s are really stupid like all great gothic bands epica is Dutch not American.Americans dont have the brain capacity 2 create this complex music u just listen 2 Justin Bieber
Yo me quedé con este álbum... es el mejor para mi. Los demás sinceramente no... El sonido era más puro y bello. Un estilo que ya no volví a escuchar en esta banda nunca más... lástima.
Igual yo, para mi este álbum es lo mejor que tiene Epica, amo la banda pero como este álbum ya no hay ningún otro, la bando pasó de metal sinfónico puro a metal progresivo con un poco de sinfonías, aunque ya no tanto, por ejemplo este ultimo The Holographic Principle es mas progresivo y extremo que sinfónico, a lo mucho se oyen cantos y coros que intentan serlo pero no llega al clímax del The Phantom Agony. The Divine Conspiracy es bastante bueno, si la banda hubiese seguido ese rumbo tal vez no se sintiera tanto la diferencia, aun así la banda se sigue expandiendo y eso me gusta porque pueden seguir haciendo mas música que al fin de tanto es lo que les gusta y nos gusta a muchos lo que hacen.
Si las bandas no cambian y conservan su estilo las llaman aburridas y repetitivas :vv si cambian las llaman vendidas o que ya no hacen música "como antes"
Yazmin Alvarado Si se venden o no, realmente no me importa y pues este álbum me gusta, pero pudieron evolucionar algo desde esta base...pero no pasó , y no me importa tampoco ya nos los escucho de todas formas
Alright I am not a PHD in music but I can tell a couple of things The backup singers are primary altos in this version The key and also the tempo has changed to be Faster and Higher for the "live" versions. Yes I knew it.
I dont know words to describe what im feeling when looking at all these people singing and playing together while making this amazing music..... Im deeply moved to point when tears are falling from my eyes and chills coming down my spine.
Epica was great but recently Simone voice got old I mean really more Sarah Brightman shrill Retrospective album felt tired. BTW she is still pretty hot
in retrospect she was pregnant and performing. anyway I 100% don't agree with you. with age her voice got more defined and better, as well as the way she sings live, she got refined. I watched them live in concert 1 month ago, and I listened to their newest full length album.
i still disagree, she is way hotter now :P anyway for years she tried to go out of her comfort vocal zone, but now she's right where she needs to be. Her live performance is very good.
No chick is hotter older. Cry for the Moon vid she is smoking not anymore she looks tired and worn from tours I agree to disagree with your stupid remarks
FellVoice Hahaha no problem :D Amanda's actually an established singer by herself. She's done a duet version of Unleashed with Epica, and stepped in for Simone when she was unwell during 2008.
In almost 50 years of life, I've found that maybe 3-5% of people who say they "like" something that most people don't are genuine, the rest are doing it just to be contrary or argumentative, i.e.: what is now commonly known as Trolling. And...just as an aside, I wonder what this guy's voice is going to be like in about 10 years. :)
amazing song, Simone is one of the best girls in metal. The only thing I don't really like about this song are the trash metal growls, they don't fit in well in my opinion
Yes! So much yes! I really tried to love their songs. Her voice is beautiful, the music is awesome but this just ruins any of their songs for me because I just can't stand it at all and that makes me sad.
Dear Jason, The actual album with the studio release is available on iTunes now. Its called the phantom agony. Amazing album I highly recommend all who read this and enjoy epica to buy it.
Sounds like a pretty good description to me! And being raised christian and finally free from the chains of that, I feel that too. goosebumps the entire song ;)
I think that they should remake this song, with Simone's and Mark's new abilities and voice tecniques. I bet that it will be much better than the old version. Mark evolved in his guttural tecnique.
Simone is so unbelievably beautiful! O.O
+MayfairLady Ygritte:)
+lolipop1122 I literally chechked if she was the one who were playing Ygritte :D
I can't imagine why some people would prefer the song without the Mark Jansen part.
The synergy of the growling and the clean singing make this song as great as it is.
Everytime i hear the song I think about an epic vocal fight between a demon and an angel.
+wh15p3r agreed.. would much prefer jari's growls from wintersun and ensiferum
+Dualitiy If you enjoy this kind of duett you gotta give Draconian a try :D They're a bit less melodic and more heavy in sound as they play Gothic Doom Metal, but they also feature a male growling and a female classical singer :)
Lara Vermillion
I heard some of Draconians songs now and i have to say i really like them.
Thank you for introducing me to such a great band :)
+Lara Vermillion WOW they are really good! Thx fer introduction
+Dualitiy
I think it's because his growling is awful
My favorite song by Epica. I was hooked and became an instant fan of this band the moment I heard it.
me too
Same as me :)
top musica
One of the most incredible songs metal has ever produced. This should be like 'We are the World'
Simone and the blonde vocalist are 2 stunningly gorgeous women...
+alex7829 I think the blonde is Amanda Somerville. Don't quote me on that though.
Thank You Dar1966!
She is Amanda Somerville.
Glad to help.
+alex7829 This look in 4:25 is killing me
+alex7829 Yeah I think the blonde woman is stunning and the look on her face at the growl lyrics is funny
I loved this when I saw it, It had such a good, blend of the female vocals the rough male vocals, the heavy metal, the female opera and classical. Such good balance, it had a real depth to the whole song, bloody marvelous
Cry for the moon- это шедевр!!! Брависсимо Epica!!!
I honestly don't understand how a song can be this good!!!!!!!!
Actually Amanda has been the vocal coach of Simone on several Epica's albums, and she also coached Floor Jansen during the After Forever's time. She's always been there but not as a front stage singer.
This is unbelievably epic *_* I've heard the song loads before, but I've never seen this video, I didn't realise the choirs and orchestral instruments were all in the studio at once.
Epic, you say?
Abbeon people from the hague have that kind of effect on most ppl.
+Abbeon yep, exactly why my hair stands up straight, from sheer respect whenever I hear some of the old Nightwish songs with Tarja, listen to some of epica... oh boy, am I in for a treat until I go deaf with pleasure.
+Abbeon they didnt record the album like that.
Сказать что понравилось, это не чего не сказать. Просто супер!
I really love Simone Simons voice and male growling and how symphonic metal music sounds here - what a perfect song..!
Too sad Epica doesn't have more such cool songs as this one :(
LoL what? Have you actually watched the whole 1 hour session? ruclips.net/video/110YdejzMyI/видео.html
@@cancelled_user Of course. None of the other material compares. Not only on The Phantom Agony album, but in the whole discography. Unfortunately.
But anyways, I like such live sessions, it is great they recorded it!
♥️ ❤ And Simone is adorable as hell :) ❤ ♥️
Looks like an angel, sounds like one too. And she appears to be having fun. Professional, very competent, fun.
I love this music.
Metal + orchestra... can there be a better combination? =)
Nope... :D
cara isso sim é arte um coral com um gutural magnífico,isso sim é música e talento n essas porcarias de funk, pagode,axe,e companhia nessa droga fé país q moro
FATO!
concordo
então, eu gosto de tudo isso aí além de epica, acho de boa
Daniel Henrique a voz dessa mina caaaara sem palavras!!
alem de linda

Right, with time you'll get used to growls, I find them relaxing now that I've got used to them and I like them a lot. It makes it a bit more harsh and that is great combined with an operatic voice...
Your right. It took me awhile to get use to the growls.
5:34 She's really getting into it XD
lol yea
haha 😂😂😂

Can't blame her, that part is fucking sick
4:26 she knows this growling is absolute trash and thinks it's hilarious. I like growling a lot, two of my favourite bands are Wintersun and Dark Tranquillity, but seriously this guy sounds like shit. Good song apart from that though.
Un grupo impresionante como hacia tiempo que no lo había.
this is what I love about Epica, it's like we COULD have synth strings...or we could just have a string ensemble play in the studio with us
Супер!!! Красиво, всё очень впечатляет!
I don't know who the studio musicians are but they seem to be having a good time....and that's what matters.
dude, I saw them 2 weeks ago, all of them had so much fun on stage, the guitar and keyboard player even went to the mosh pit to hangout with us. Is the band with best live interaction and one of the best performances
I've seen so far
@@samuelnavarromeza2507 Agreed, their live interaction is unparalleled currently. They are also literally restless on the stage.
Amanda Somerville as backing vocal... So beautiful, so talented, so underrated...
Amazing! Epica clearly belongs in such great company as Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Delain. 10/10!
Epica is better than Delain, imho. Maybe even better than Nightwish, in some respects.
Delain is still a great band though. Well... was a great band since it became a one-man project couple weeks ago :-(
Really like thiis song..awesome
Hai
Udah kok..hehe..bagus2 lagunya
Cry For The Moon
she is truly one of the most beautiful women i have ever seen in my life.
This band is so talented, it depresses me knowing that they're terribly underrated.
Its 2021 now, and not so underrated.
Amanda Somerville i love you
+MusicPirateOficial LOL! She is freakin smokin hot.. She's American.
+Allen Zillmer hell yeah bro
+Allen Zillmer u guy,s are really stupid like all great gothic bands epica is Dutch not American.Americans dont have the brain capacity 2 create this complex music u just listen 2 Justin Bieber
Hey Pete
1. I know they are Dutch
2. SHE is American
3. Get a clue and stop being a Douche
da ayrı hocam.
Quero que toquem EPICA no meu velorio, Foda demais
La he escuchado cientos de veces y nunk me cansare de hacerlos......esto si es musica!!!!!!!!!!!
я в шоке, лучшее из того что я слышал за последние 10 лет.
duvido vc nao ter balançando a cabeça quando o violino começou a suar!!!
yes
o cara é um gênio 👏
Impossível não fazer.
yüzlerdeki ciddiyetle karışık gülümseme
If you'd been at a gig in Glasgow a couple of weekends ago u would have seen that his voice and chest were in excellent health. Rock from Scotland :)
I like how they're all back there dancing and smiling. For real
Yo me quedé con este álbum... es el mejor para mi. Los demás sinceramente no... El sonido era más puro y bello. Un estilo que ya no volví a escuchar en esta banda nunca más... lástima.

Amanda Somerville on the back vocal???!!!
Sim
Yes
the best band forever !!!!
Looook at this pretty blue eyes! It's beautiful !
I am AMAZED that she can sing like that even while sitting. O.O Damn.
Mark Jansen is awesome!
Sözlerin bir önemi yok. Müzikal anlamda çok güzeel....
öyle mi dersiniz ne zaman dinlersem bu şarkıyı kendimi kötü hissediyorum ama kendimi alamıyorumda
da ayrı hocam.
What kind of ayar verme çabası
efe can What!?
Benim ingilizcem yok.Eğer öyleyse yazık
holy shit epica is epic. cant believe i never listened to her
i already fell in love with her and her voice!!!
simones singing is mesmerising brilliant breathtaking and leaves me floored. the other vocalists in this movie are also amazing
quem sabe faz ao vivo 2019 \o/
einai fantastiko den exo logia
love this song as always, simmone has an amazing voice
the most beautiful voice in Gothic metal hands down.
David Krebbs don't be so bint! The voices in famous Band is not similar and this is great!
HD my ass.
720p is HD.
I love Amanda's nose.
da ayrı hocam.
I dont know words to describe what im feeling when looking at all these people singing and playing together while making this amazing music..... Im deeply moved to point when tears are falling from my eyes and chills coming down my spine.
Simone's voice is really beautiful!
mark jansen asi brutalim benim
Black man looks like Gus from Breaking Bad
+Erdem Kayalar wasn´t he (gus) into classic music?
kocham ten utwór zakochałem się w nim od pierwszej chwili
epica ma wszystkie super utwory,ale ten jest naj
if a tear didn't shed, then this band is not for you....
Epica was great
but recently Simone voice got old
I mean really more Sarah Brightman shrill
Retrospective album felt tired.
BTW she is still pretty hot
in retrospect she was pregnant and performing.
anyway I 100% don't agree with you. with age her voice got more defined and better, as well as the way she sings live, she got refined. I watched them live in concert 1 month ago, and I listened to their newest full length album.

Man she was soooo hot when she was younger
Let it go bitch
i still disagree, she is way hotter now :P
anyway for years she tried to go out of her comfort vocal zone, but now she's right where she needs to be. Her live performance is very good.
No chick is hotter older.
Cry for the Moon vid she is smoking not anymore she looks tired and worn from tours
I agree to disagree with your stupid remarks
Eddie Calling someone 'a canine of the female persuasion' isn't going to win you any argument young grasshopper! ;-)
Who is the blonde backup singer?
FellVoice Amanda Somerville, if I'm not mistaken.
Mikhail Cazi You are correct. Thank you. You're my hero! :)
FellVoice Hahaha no problem :D Amanda's actually an established singer by herself. She's done a duet version of Unleashed with Epica, and stepped in for Simone when she was unwell during 2008.
FellVoice Amanda Somerville
FellVoice Check out Amanda's fab work with Trillium and with Michael Kiske - as well as her own solo work.
Amazing voice! You can really hear emotions in it
The talent still gives me chills everytime I watch this... love this!
This was great until the unintelligible, half-strangled guy opened his mouth.
lol - love it - my thoughts exactly
"This was great" agree
"until…" disagree
well, we all have an opinion... lol ;)
In almost 50 years of life, I've found that maybe 3-5% of people who say they "like" something that most people don't are genuine, the rest are doing it just to be contrary or argumentative, i.e.: what is now commonly known as Trolling.
And...just as an aside, I wonder what this guy's voice is going to be like in about 10 years. :)
I wouldn't even like this song if it wasn't for "the half-strangled guy". Go listen to classical music if you cant handle growls.
amazing song, Simone is one of the best girls in metal. The only thing I don't really like about this song are the trash metal growls, they don't fit in well in my opinion
XD trash metal growls
how would you call them?
haha xD
Simply growls
Trash... 😂
this song is superb,it's perfect. it has contrast, harmony, deepness, meaning. just a master piece!!!
The thing is, she is ACTING beautiful. And that's also part of what makes this video awesome.
I literally liked everything about this except for the screaming vocals. ruined it
Yes! So much yes! I really tried to love their songs. Her voice is beautiful, the music is awesome but this just ruins any of their songs for me because I just can't stand it at all and that makes me sad.
justin booth not really, it's pretty fine actually. Maybe they can get someone better than that but I don't mind
That vocal is so good! That is something from deep inside. I love it!
no no no you aren't right
E quando começa esses gutural, estraga a música!
Não é? É o próprio diabo em pessoa! O duro é que essa é a proposta! 👹👎👎👎
Dios es tan maravilloso, podria repetirlo mil veces y sentir esos violines la voz y las guistarras tan perfectamente.
Dear Jason,
The actual album with the studio release is available on iTunes now. Its called the phantom agony. Amazing album I highly recommend all who read this and enjoy epica to buy it.
Ugly growls ruin the song
That death metal emo screaming bullshit has to go. If it was all guttural with her voice as well it would have been perfect
'Death metal' and 'emo' do not belong in the same sentence, except to say that they do not belong in the same sentence.
+Rob Ackley Haha! Exactly!
J'adore cette chanson. Je peux l'écouter en boucle !
Simone Simons and Amy Lee these two girls are for me living angels
that man ruined the song XD
crisiszcore not at all!
I love this song, and this band! c:
And Simone.. she's beautiful and tallented.. just love her! An angel!
Simone is Godess, beauty and superbe voice!!! Beautiful women!
Essa música é daora demais hein!!!
Brazil loves Epica
Un gran trabajo de Epica, asombroso en todos los aspectos.
Only 1 min in and there are chills running down my spine... she is insanely powerful.
Sounds like a pretty good description to me! And being raised christian and finally free from the chains of that, I feel that too. goosebumps the entire song ;)
the orchestra effect make the songs grow nice voice also the vocal shes just an angel i believe ... keep it up ... EPICA!
gitarzysta ma głos rodem z piekła, ona ma piękny anielski głos. Epicki duet ;)
Speechless. there are no words to describe this song, except my new favorite. :)
I love this session so much and I like simone smilling here!
She is truly amazing
her voice is powerfull and beatifull...that growling guy...well, i wouldnt cry if this song would be without him :P
Great sound one of my best from Epica!!
зажигательно.....Соседи довольны........
wow fell in love with this fusion of vocals!! AWESOME!!!!!
lo mejor de lo gótico
esta representado en este grupo gracias...
There´s just one word to describe this song. Perfect.
Mit eines der besten! Musik! Sehr schön gemacht. Achja,und die Blauen Augen,da verliebe ich mich^^
I think that they should remake this song, with Simone's and Mark's new abilities and voice tecniques. I bet that it will be much better than the old version. Mark evolved in his guttural tecnique.
so good when you hear her voice you just get shivers all over. no matter how much you heard this song :D
Kaç yıl geçti hala dinlettiriyor kendini epica. Knight oynarken az dinlemedik 😘
she is the best of all the metal divas
So pure. THIS is art! don't seek anymore, this is what music is♥
