Ah yes...Through the fire and the flames. I remember this from Guitar Hero 3. If anyone succeeded this song on Hard mode, you have my respect.
I'm healing very well and coping very well in my mental health.
@Jake Smith I beat it on medium but failed on hard lol
One of the biggest boosts to my mental health as of late happened when I discovered a young Japanese drummer who covered this very song on the drums. Her name is Junna. ruclips.net/video/UKr1H4Jv6is/видео.html
DragonForce is literally my favorite band! And OMG THEIR DRUMMER, GEE ANZALONE IS AMAZING! Love the video!
There was a young French guitarist named Tina S who did a cover of this. She was 15, I think, but not much older than that. Hermann reacted to it and was amazed. She's since dropped out of sight to finish school, but she is a genius on the guitar
Herman Li actually did a reaction video of her playing and from what i could see, he was absolutely blown away.
ruclips.net/video/k6b_IyM42hc/видео.html
Actually she was 14 and Herman reached out multiple times for her, so she might play together with them, but sadly there was never an answser...
She has re-emerged with her own band. Look em up.
@@thebigsmuz really? What's the name?
Because this video is so sonically and visually unreal, you paid attention to the lyrics, which most people do not do. The lyrics get buried in the unreal talent of the musicians, they don't realize how good the lyrics/vocals are, You did. Thank you.
It is such a beautifully and happily sad song. Such is life.
I took a music class in college, and while I forgot the main analysis, the professor talked about this song, and how the lyrics and the composition are really up there, but it gets too easily overlooked by people because of the speed, genre, and the fact that a lot of people heard it from Guitar Hero first.😂😂
Great song for a mental health channel. Very aspirational lyrics
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
I'm on the Crazy part of my Heroes Journy. As I have been for years. But it's music like this that gets me through most days. And I agree those fingers flying that fast has to be sorcery!
There is a Japanese girl called Junna who plays a drum cover of this song, note for note. She was 18 when she recorded it.
Given the theme of this channel, that version is an absolute must.
Because that version is the multimedia version of mental health care. And it's free.
Feeling down? That version will fill you with joy and make you smile from index finger to index finger.
A Junna video a day keeps anti depressants away :) Watched her all night (reactions), and I'm exhausted with joy.
@@gottagowork I've seen a few of her videos and she always looks ecstatic while she's playing. She's a gem.
Now after this a must watch you should hear this young girl doing the drum cover to this tune 【 JUNNA 】Through The Fire And Flames / DragonForce - Drum Cover ruclips.net/video/UKr1H4Jv6is/видео.html
For sure, an amazing drum cover by Junna.
Guitarists Herman Li and Sam Toten are the main core and only original members in the band. Amazing guitarists, both of them. Are you finding that much of the rock and metal you’ve been listening to surprisingly positive and supportive, especially considering acquisitions levelled at it in the past?
Hey Amanda. This song was, at the one point, the "secret song" on the game Guitar Hero III. It is extremely hard to play on Legendary Difficulty.
Flashback to the hand cramps this song caused, I never beat it on Guitar Hero to say the least.
I always see everyone react to the music video version of this song, but there are whole sections that are cut out of the song, AND THEY'RE THE BEST PARTS! (pre-2012 Dragonforce Music Videos have a lack of bad notoriety when it comes to shortened songs for a video form, but that's just my opinion) I seriously urge you to have a listen to the full *7 minute* track for a truly epic experience. I put the link for the full song, below. 🤘😁♥
ruclips.net/video/L_u8fmS8eTM/видео.html
Yes! Power metal at its finest! Love these guys.
I’m not too familiar with the sub-genre at all, but this is power metal. Highly melodic and epically dramatic. And I’d have to imagine this is considered a power metal classic. The ultra-fast-forward guitar playing is of course unbelievable. Even Metallica’s lead guitarist said it was the fastest guitar playing he’d ever seen. These guys are totally unreal guitar heroes and, really, what an amazing metal band.
And, since you asked, I’m glad to say I’m very far along on my own self-improvement journey. Unfortunately still not completely where I want to be. But I’ve spent literally years focusing on strengthening my personal energy and mind. It’s a path that’s taken some unexpected turns, that I didn’t see coming. But all in all I’m doing better than ever in my life, which was my goal from the start.
React to DragonForce- "Valley Of The Dammed" preferably in the live version. Her instrumental is amazing, and the lyrics refer to something epic and fanciful, something like lord of the rings for example...
Great reaction Amanda!! Since you liked it, please react to Junna, a Japanese drummer, that did a drum cover video of this same song "Through The Fire And Flames / DragonForce" ruclips.net/video/UKr1H4Jv6is/видео.html You'll see, it will be just a joy to watch her!!! Also DragonForce Drummer Gee Anzalone's did a live reaction to Junna's video!!
Hello, Kevin here. I have a mental health illness called Schizoaffective Disorder. Thanks for talking about mental health in such a positive way. This is one of my absolute favorite songs... It makes me want to go on an amazing journey. I believe we have to keep going in life... We might all be destined to die, but we are also destined to Live amazing lives.
I bet Amanda would be a blast to hang out with 😀😁
Hey, there is a French prodigy Tina setkic who played dragon force through the fire and the flames cover at 15 years old and has almost 1 million subscribers but hasn’t posted anything in a few years, nobody knows anything about her right now, thanks requesting ❤️🔥😎she plays both guitar solos at once.
I totally understand the point of view you're approaching this from, but I think it's important to look at the point of view which is typical of this type of music and the whole warrior mindset in general... You don't go to the fight because there is no way around it and you have to . They are marching toward the fight because that is life. The fight is the goal, not the barrier keeping you from your goal.
"try listening 🎧 Tina S cover on" Through the Fire and Flames" guitar 🎸 lead amazing 😍🤩, very fast madam ,
Epicurus certainly seems to have disagreed with the Buddhists on this, at the very least. Perhaps Ataraxia is achievable? Who knows?
That song is awesome 👌👏😎🙌
Should react to the day that never comes. By Metallica. It's a military song.
everything we go through is just a lesson we need to learn, so if you keep repeating it you haven't learned yet, live life forward don't dwell on the past, it took me a while to get this myself but it's what helps me get through it all every time I feel down I keep telling myself this until it sinks in, and yeah as Larry Wright pointed out Tina S is incredible with her skill on guitar and her cover of this song is mind blowing as she plays both parts, another amazing cover is the drum cover by Junna who Gee Anzalone (Dragonforce's drummer) said it's the best cover of the song he has ever seen
You really need to check out "Can't Handle This" (Kanye rant) by Bo Burnham. It broke me. Especially when you know the back story.
The more I watch this video I realise how underrated the drummers performance is 😮😯
I love the fact that Metal fans. Get and love Classical. Dragonforce's lead guitarist shreds!
I wonder how Amanda was going to react to this song. I know it for the fast pace playing and Herman Li's awesome guitar play and solo with Sam Totman.
Loved the hair conditioner comment Amanda😂. I wonder if the hairspray bands are the major cause of are depleted ozone layer.😂
Good point about suffering, it makes us more empathetic of others, walk a mile in someone else's shoes so to speak, a human limitation is to know what it's like to go through suffering if we our self haven't experience it, and then that doesn't mean we would handle it in the same way.
Tina S does an awesome guitar cover of this song. Even Herman Li said it was the best guitar cover of this song and has a video reviewing Tina S video.
Hey can i recommend a few songs that have an embrace life vibe in its lyrics, it really helps me through tough times to have life affirming and strengthening music like through the fire and flames
The patient by Tool: basically a song about bearing the pain, being patient and never giving up, i think it will really move you
The patient lyrics:
''If there were no desire to heal
The damaged and broken met along
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away
By now
And I still may
I still may
Be patient
Be patient
Be patient''
Parabol+Parabola by Tool its basically a song about being away of your fleeting time and embracing the moment.
some lyrics for Parabola: Twirling 'round with this familiar parable
Spinning, weaving 'round each new experience
Recognize this as a holy gift and
Celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing
A chance to be alive and breathing
This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality
Embrace this moment, remember
We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion
'The Art of Dying' by Gojira and 'Silvera'
the lyics that capture me
The Art of Dying:
'' I cannot stomach these forms and colors anymore
But I'm here to continue, after all I have been through
I try to keep my eyes open, I am realizing
This life and death more precious than anything''
Silvera:
''Time to open your eyes to this genocide
When you clear your mind you see it all
You're receiving the gold of a better life
When you change yourself, you change the world''
Architects - "when we were young" its a recent release and its a banger, some lyrics.
''When we were young
We thought we had the whole world figured out
Now all we do is speak in tongues
We play a losing game
Only now we hear the shouts fading out
We flew into the sun
Is there something in your eye?
Did you fall or were you just on a high?
Everybody's so afraid they could die
But they never once said, "Thank God we're alive"
Hell yes
Herman Li is beast with guitar, and man streams on twitch too
My beautiful sister. And everyone else out there who deals with mental health. At one point we can heal. My sister. At what point does the lens come off your personal thinking and it just becomes pure enjoyment of life again? I love you and everyone in life regardless of whether or not you have struggled mentally as I have. I know I've been there. I have attempted suicide. I have done 2 stints in a behavioral hospital. I've had and still do, a fantastic therapist. But I have gotten to the point with my mental health, where I have chosen to overcome. That's me. Not everyone. I am so inspired by your strength and everything that entails you, I just had that one question. To be clear on my therapist. He retired, but we still talk a couple of times a week
The moment I really felt like I was making true progress and enjoying life again was the first morning where I woke up excited to tackle the day, not dreading it.
@@MentalAmanda I an overjoyed to hear that. You got this Sister! Keep pushing forward! I finally( this is just me )learned to accept my path. I was chosen to help people. I am a introverted empath. So I fought it for decades. Now I have peace and understanding. I still would never change the decades it took to get here. Cause maybe I would not be who I am today.
I’m so glad i found your channel Amanda!!
Im happy you reacted to this piece of music by Dragonforce.
You should watch the playthrough of this song their drummer Gee Anzalone did.
Amanda, another great reaction! You are so amazing!!! That said, I have another suggestion for you. Well, five, to be exact! I will make these requests on Patreon as well. But, my request is essentially what is referred to as the "Twelve-step Suite" performed by the band Dream Theater. These are five songs across several albums by Dream Theater that, per Wikipedia "The lyrics to each song, written by the band's then-drummer Mike Portnoy, deal with his experience of alcoholism. Each song represents a certain number of the Twelve Steps. Various lyrical and musical themes run through the Suite. It was written by the band with the intention of eventually playing it live as one piece." The first song, "The Glass Prison" is a must for sure! The other songs are amazing as well and further progress the story and process of dealing with addiction!
The way James Labrie of Dream Theater delivers the line "I can feel my body shaking, I can feel my body breaking; I'm ready, to let it all go!!!" in "The Root of All Evil" gives me chills. Also on that album, and I should have put this on the pack playlist instead is "These Walls." Great song that explores social awkwardness.
i almost t00k my life too, i was about to do it but this band and my dogs saved my life.
glad you are promoting mental health!
Finally someone who listens to the lyrics. (:
Happy that you liked it and I share a lot of the thoughts that you had on this one. (:
Suffering and pain are very subjective. I am at a point where I feel like nothing could hurt me anymore because I've been through everything imaginable and unimagnable and came out on the other side.
Amazing reaction Amanda! Best part is, this isn't even their best or fastest song!
Cool reaction Amanda 👍 dragon force is a pretty cool band
The power of their Rock makes the hair light and flowing and bouncy as they ride off into Battle. Keep up the good work
Hey Amanda, recent subscriber here. I love your videos not just for the rock reactions (I'm a fan of the genre) but also because of the positivity regarding mental health. Speaking as a clinically depressed person, I love how metal can both encapsulate the pain and anger we often feel, but how it can also be full of positive affirmations and energizing motivation. I would love to see your reaction to one such motivating song for me, which is "Vice Grip" by Parkway Drive.
If you are seeking for a product list for your hair, you could always get Herman Li on one of his numerous streams in Twitch and ask him. He is very down to earth and has a good relationship with his fans. He still has his magnificent hair. ;)
Yup, he's awesome. I bet he gets those questions ALL the time, too. :)
i had a song for you and for viewers as June is ptsd awareness song its ptsd by tech n9ne the video speaks very well as what one with ptsd deals with you may need lyrics to understand it in a few parts as they rap fast a friend showed me it who also suffers with ptsd
I remember seeing these guys play in melbourne back in 2007. This was in the precovid days when the singer would take a mouthful of water and spit it out at the audience (yuck!!) and I kept trying to avoid it but I got hit at least a couple of times. At least I didn't have to worry about getting infected. :)
I love to end my day with one of your reaction videos... you're so intuitive and such a beautiful soul... now it's off to sleep 💤😴...
My favorite song from DragonForce is Prepare For War.
My god,their power level is over 9000!
It IS classified as Power Metal, after all... :)
Hey Amanda. One bit of advice if I may? When reacting to any Rock/Metal Music......... PUH-LEEEEEZE NEVER PAUSE DURING A GUITAR SOLO! LOL
When you realize the album version duet is a full 2 minutes longer than the video... ^_^
An amazing reaction and your comments are also very positive and uplifting.
You should react to The Clansman live by Iron Maiden from Rock in Rio 2001,I think you will love everything about it,the lyrics, the musicianship and the great live performance.
This is my first time hearing the original band. I heard this song from the cover done by Jonathan Young.
Me sitting waiting for her to get to the guitar rift!! Dudeeeee our generation had the best music omg every genre fucking slappssss in their own unique ways
Ok this song was on guitar hero 3 legends of rock it was THE most insanely hard GH song I've ever tried I couldn't play it for crap
These guys are amazing! I’m a child of the 80s and I love hair band music and these guys bring that back for me!
How much conditioner?
Hi Amanda, you understood this one very well, most people don't get it.
Watching those two guitars battle it out was awesome.
Shifting of mindset, music helps if meds don't.
🤘🏼-devil horns, rock and roll!
🤙🏼-hang loose, surf reference.
😁👍🏼✌🏼
And then she takes a listen to revolution death squad, and her mind is blown even further
" try listening to Junna the 7 year old drummer cover that fastest song madam, amazing 😍🤩🤩, "
Yey, Studioforce :) lol not my cup of tea, but when feelin down, listen to some happy metal and you'll be bright and happy...one warning, do not drive and listen to this song, you might get speed ticket
Please please please react to the song Alive by P.O.D!!! This song helped me see the light during the darkest moment of my life
Weird fact: When this track was released the band couldn´t play the song.
They had recorded it in small sections like 10-15 sec but they couldn´t get through the whole song so when their track took off thanks to GH they had big problems live.
Im a guitarist. And everytime i think im good and better than others? I watch this video dragon force, im schizophrenic paranoia, and my last name is redday.. from South Dakota.. i have more
Note: Herman, guitarist, Li is very active on YT. Don't be surprised to see a comment from him. fyi.
Success to me is happiness. You can vice versa that if you choose. If you enjoy working on something that makes you money, is it really work? In other words chase your dreams that make you succeed.
My thought is this i dont know anyone who has a quote "perfect life" Im just guessing here but it may be that a person or animal has to live a lot of lifetimes to get one life that is problem free or relatively problem free, and it probably doesnt matter whether your rich or poor or what you have for its probably not based on any of that. its probably based on where we are individually in the bigger scheme of things, and where we are in our learning process of humanity I have had more than my fair share of bad things happening to me but do i believe im getting picked on by a god or gods?? No probably not!! The only thing that there is to blame is just my own inexperience at being a human, Looking at the people around me including my parents who have money and cars and houses, but are they completely happy?? No they still have problems, and obviously they have learned things that i havent yet, as i have learned things that they havent learned yet. Your an inspiration to me Amanda, and i will quote the Fates Warning song Pale Fire "Nothing can grow in the absence of desire, and no one can grow with nothing to inspire"!!! Have a good day my dear!!!
The evil laughter in this case is the DM asking for a dex. check to climb the rope in you D&D game.
This is a song about hard fought victory. Yes, you’re facing great evils and dangers, and yes it is bad. It’s not in ignorance of the difficulty of the past or the present that we press forward, but “for the life beyond the stars,” the life we fight through the turmoil of today to live.
We fight through the evils of the day for the life beyond the suffering. It’s because of the suffering that the journey of this life carries its weight and beauty.
The only product you need to have hair like that is a room full of amps all turned up to 11!
Looking again you video time 1,10-1,20 Whats is doing guitar
Next step is for a shampoo manufacturer to use this video - the shampoo product would fly.
I feel as though you need some hate breed in your life. Very uplifting very much in your face kind of music.
Neon gravestones
Migraine
Both are by twenty one pilots. I'd love for you to react to either!
Death is The thing you experience last... make it as last as possible...
Thats Dukkha not Dakkha. And the translation isn't suffering. Its dis-ease. Sorry im a Zen Buddhist and these things make a huge difference.
Please don't apologize. I appreciate the knowledge.
I wish the music video wasn't the radio edit. Album version is so much better!
You have the drummer for this band is Achilles Priester he's an insane drummer
Look hime up on RUclips I promise you'll love his work
check out the official video of The Light by Disturbed
your are the first person actuality trying to analyze the lyrics, claps cheers
and dont forget that a Drummer is also a unsung hero cuz he never missed a single beat at that speed
Main n tail. The one with the horse on it. Find it in the pet section. Wonderful for hair care.
This is the short version, I recommend listening to the long version.
Love DragonForce! And this song on Guitar Hero was hard! Also check out the Funeral for a Friend song I mentioned, Roses for the Dead. The video hits like a gut punch!
@@jenovacide You can still play your stupid game. I was just saying that an electric guitar is a better option. Learn that instead, if you ever want to be in a band. Otherwise your just learning guitar hero for nothing but to enjoy a stupid game.
@@gossman75 as much as I hate guitar hero as well, there is no reason whatsoever to be a dick to people who do enjoy it.
Eddie Van Halen- Eruption (Live)
They are amazing and have amazing hair I suppose, I still have the same short haircut almost marine standards, since I was 6, just how I roll. Was in the USMC. Though dragonforce is amazing, I’d take you hands down any day over them, cause well, you’re cuter. Like adorable. Anyways, you responded to one of my comments a bit ago, asking what I wanted and what now, I dunno honestly, doesn’t matter anyways, as the world will always do whatever the f if wants anyways, and I won’t get anything I want, all it is, is struggle and suffering, haha. How’s it’s been the last 35 years, lol, how it’ll always be, I’m only good for work, and providing, until I’m inconvenient and don’t give what others want, or need. I’m just a means to an end, to everyone, including my limited ’family’they only want things from me, emotionally, physically, financially. So cut them out too, so yeah, only me, haha. Same with my ex’s, from all over the US, different ages, upbringings, religions, doesn’t matter, people are all the same and only use you to their own benefit then discard you, when no longer beneficial enough. Epic song though and love it.
The world doesn't hand things to very many people. We don't "get" anything. We fight for it. I don't tolerate "that's how it has been and that is how it will be" because I turned things around after several decades. It doesn't HAVE to keep being the same way.
@@MentalAmanda oh I know, I worked and still do for everything I have/had. But my life shows doesn’t matter what you do, it’s what it is, lol. That’s all. You could be super awesome, smart, tough, good, doesn’t matter, you’re f’ed. with no hope of a decent family life, your blood, or with someone.
@@Plastikdoom I have seen many many stories that prove that wrong. My own included.
@@MentalAmanda I guess, is possible, never experienced different, anytime I think differently, am proven wrong, just how it goes. Life goes on.
@@MentalAmanda and doesn’t matter, lol, nothing does, just have work, that’s all, all I’ll have. Already gave all I can, don’t care anymore, know I’ll have nothing. Just keep going out of habit, stubbornness. So it’s whatever.
theres a girl named junna that covers this on the drums its real good
Using "suicide survivor" as a tag to get views is absolutely disgusting. I'm not a troll, I'm telling you as a person. Don't use your baggage as emotional leverage for views. If you are fighting for mental health, then make mental health videos. Not reaction videos.
Many reactors have a perspective that they are coming from, such as vocal coach. The majority of the songs I react to have mental health themes and the description is to give viewers the perspective I will be reacting from right away. The point of the channel is to shatter the mental health stigma through conversation and give people a place to share their experiences and feel support. Most videos are selected and requested by subscribers who ask for the reactions. Music is a way for many to share difficult emotions. I also have a large number of vlogs and videos on my personal experience with mental health.
If you must know where I'm at in my "hero's journey", I'm in a place between darkness and light. I was getting better, however life continues to test me. I just got a new job making more money than ive ever had before.. but just a couple of days ago, someone stole my Cadillac converter from my car. That has set me back a very pretty penny! And as a result besides financial crisis, it has triggered the all too familiar dark space in my mind
I got slammed with a financial crisis this month as well. I understand that it can trigger a lot of difficult thoughts and emotions. Keep fighting. More money gets printed every day. You'll get through this.
Have you ever thought about writing a book. You've got a lot of terrific insight, and you're pretty freaking smart to. ❤️❤️ Ur reactions.
On it!
You just reacted to a power metal band lol
Not sure why you have to put "suicide survivor" unless you are looking for sympathy and click bait 😂 I'm a suicide survivor, but I don't flaunt it around and add it to my posts on social media
Because this channel was created to give people struggling a safe place to go and open up. It exists to shatter the mental health stigma, so I talk openly about my experiences. If you read through the comments, you will see how many people it has helped. Some react as a vocal coach. I put it in the title so you know the perspective I am coming from. I'm glad you made it through and are still here!
its crazy how good these guys are
You should listen to their song Seasons
watch there video hero of our time..
Oh yes the days and nights I stood up watching my sister try to beat this song on Guitar Hero good times good times I haven't spoken to her in years but I think it's time to give her a call
Can't wait to hear about your chat with her!
God I've tried to learn this song on guitar so many times. I'm just not fast enough
YET
@@MentalAmanda We shall see
It’s funny ‘cause the longer version sings about the things you mentioned about the seal , after the solo it says “I’ll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can for freedom of every man”. 😎🤘🏻
I don't think others have a perfect life. I just wonder what the point of life is
We each assign it our own meaning. 😊
Im back again and you have probably seen me around commenting on your posts,
TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ (self-harm & suicide)
I feel like your reaction too “Im Still Here” from Sia would be very interesting because “I’m still here” is about fighting your ego and the past has haunted you, the past wants you dead and WANTED you dead, tormented you, and just damaged you really, but she learns to fight it and she’s been through so much she’s convincing herself / (others) she is going to win the battle, she’s going to live her past out, fighting the urge to harm yourself or commit suicide,
This song was so strong to me I could really feel it vibrate all the way through me, it really stuck out to me.
And I’m 2-3 more hours away from 1 month free from self harm!!!
Very proud of you for your month milestone!
@@MentalAmanda thank you!!
Definitely one of the top five Buddhist/Joseph Campbell readings of DragonForce on RUclips. Prove me wrong.
Mental health is not just a illness, it’s life in general. Whether you have it or not, you will get it or is stuck with you for the rest of your days. Suicide is never the answer by the way. Get professional help, THEY GET PAID TO HELP U OUT, not that hard to talk to someone if it’s not a therapist
I love you so much
THE WARNING
