I've never been a big fan of Simone, but occasionally enjoy an Epica song, and this is one of them. Your version is SO MUCH BETTER than the Epica version. You have better tone and voice control than Simone. I'll be listening to this version from now on. 💗
I couldn't listen to your cover before... Storm the Sorrow came to me as one of my fav songs, and as one of my fav civer singers, u make a dream of mine come true ! I love your version Min! ;)
Cool. Not sure how I missed seeing this earlier, but great job! Epica produces some of the classiest metal and Storm the Sorrow is one of their best tunes!
I can't believe I liked your cover just in the same way I love the original, Minniva, you're just amazing! I'm in love with your voice, specially because you cover songs of my favorite bands. It's like a dream come true. I send you a big hug and kiss from Mexico ;D
I really wish I could see you as a lead singer in some band, you're simply brilliant. Hope you keep doing this amazing work! I would be really happy to find you on Spotify! Plus... I would LOVE to watch you singing Stand My Ground from Within Temptation!
Is it just me or do Women from central Europe have better singing styles than Women from North America? No offense to anyone who's American or Canadian.
slow clap. ....very well done. great song choice , I love how you make reaching the higher notes seem effortless. And that look Andre gives at the beginning of the growl will make children run away ;)
OMG BRAVOOOOO!!! This is one of my fav. Epica's songs and you mastered it and even gave some extra!!! Amazing *claps* :D (I can't believe how you can sound so much like Simone!) Good job everybody!!!
This world isn't ready for something that amazing. If that happened they would tear a hole in the fabric of reality and cause a universal cataclysmic event. Probably.
you're always ruling all songs,how? It is talent to spare! I hope to see your own band soon,find the best and the most dedicated musicians and give us your natural talent. Keep shining shooting star!
I was waiting for this one to come and I gotta say..not quite what I expected. I haven't seen any other covers on this song, so I assume that your cover by itself is actually pretty good. However, if I compare it to other covers that you've done in the past, I'd say that you can do definetely better than that. As said, it wasn't bad, but not as great as the stuff you usually do and what your fans are used to. You've got an amazing voice and I really enjoy listening to it. But I don't think this was the best performance of yours. Looking foreward to seeing another great cover of yours :) Sincerely A loving subscriber
os amo, no puedo dejar de admirar tu voz; os amo platónicamente y con amplitud de platón; demasiado bien sorprendido por tan buena y prolija interpretación
When i listen to your covers, i feel like i'm on a cloud carried by the wind. But not an agressive wind, a wind that careses you. The goosebumps are real. Congrats to you and your guests!! May I suggest something from Sister Sin or Doro?
Alex Luss Great axe-work on this one......seemed like you were "in the zone", and having a good time with the collab. How 'bot a shredded solo on the next one ! :) Minniva seems to have such wonderful access to stellar musicians for her cover performances.....very cool, indeed. :) \m/
Thank you so much for your nice words! Yes indeed this collaboration and working on all the instrumental for Minniva was really awesome. We have other collaborations in the pipeline, and you might want to check out my channel for some more "guitar-centric" videos, tons of stuff upcoming, with solos ;) \m/
Gr8, M8 ! Can't wait for the new Minniva collabs. And I will check out your channel.....not many things better than "axe-on-fire " extended solos ! ( 'guitar-centric'.....I love it ) x) Thanks for taking the time to drop a note....I'm very sure you are a busy artist Peace In. :) \m/ x 2
OMG! This and sleeping sun are better than the originals. Minniva is not just a great singer but unique. My favourite artist on youtube. Nice accompaniment by Alex as well beautiful playing.
Let me put it this way, I hate Epica, moreso ever since I saw them live about 5 years ago (they were co-headlining with someone I wanted to see). And you managed to actually destroy all of my expectations. You hit the notes cleaner than Simone, you have better control and versatility as well...as just wow. I could go on for a while but I'll just say you are easily the most complete singer I've heard do these covers and possible ever in general. Keep it up.
I just found your channel and I'm totally bingeing, your covers are great! Would you consider doing Requiem For The Innocent (Elizabeth Pt. 2) or The Black Halo from Kamelot?
I recently discovered your channel and I got shivers hearing your voice! I would love to hear a cover of Sancta Terra by Epica, I'm sure you'll do an amazing job. Love from Colombia 💖🇨🇴
beautiful. Epica is one of the best bands in the world now
It's ridiculous why just 82 thousands views? Incredibly talented woman.
You are a storm of musical perfection for us. Long live Minniva!
Her voice is so exceptional. She can sing anything. Very impressive.
from far the best epica cover out there - thank you Minniva!
How beautiful it is! Thanks!
I've never been a big fan of Simone, but occasionally enjoy an Epica song, and this is one of them. Your version is SO MUCH BETTER than the Epica version. You have better tone and voice control than Simone. I'll be listening to this version from now on. 💗
Fantastic job! It's actually a lot easier to understand the lyrics than when Simone sings, too.
I love this song with Simone. But your performance is awesome too! Realy beautiful. :)
There are lots of Songs I never listened from Epica. Your covers make me discover them and give Energy for the incoming day. Takk Minniva.
I couldn't listen to your cover before... Storm the Sorrow came to me as one of my fav songs, and as one of my fav civer singers, u make a dream of mine come true ! I love your version Min! ;)
THIS IS SOOO GOOD! Thanks for making me happy, this is one of my favourite songs :) Amazing work as always!
Wow, this one goes to the list of the best covers, congratulations it was very good!
Brilliant! You're extraordinary singer Minniva!
Listening to this beautiful cover, it is impossible to not storm the sorrow. Both of You sing and play with heart and soul!
Oh dear! Thank you big time (^_^) /,,/
You killed it!! Loved how it sounded darker than the original song! 👍🏻🤘🏻
You're right, such a deep sound!
Minnivas version is badass
✌✌👍👍🤘🤘
+Mike Erickson 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Oh Minniva! Epica is one of my all time favorites. I love this song and you & the guys absolutely nailed it! Keep up the great work!
Woke up and saw a notification, checked and it was worth it! Beautiful as always. Loved it! Cheers
No words... This is seriously better than the original and I really love the original version!! But this cover is somehow on another level
Cool. Not sure how I missed seeing this earlier, but great job! Epica produces some of the classiest metal and Storm the Sorrow is one of their best tunes!
your voice is incredible!! such a full, rich sound. i got goosebumps!
I can't believe I liked your cover just in the same way I love the original, Minniva, you're just amazing!
I'm in love with your voice, specially because you cover songs of my favorite bands. It's like a dream come true.
I send you a big hug and kiss from Mexico ;D
Amazing as always, perfect singing, wish you much sucess in the world!
No words, amazing! great cover Rock on Minniva
Hi Minniva! Amazing cover like your other ones. I like so much your videos. Congratulations and keep going 😉
I really wish I could see you as a lead singer in some band, you're simply brilliant.
Hope you keep doing this amazing work!
I would be really happy to find you on Spotify!
Plus... I would LOVE to watch you singing Stand My Ground from Within Temptation!
Woow! This cover is one of my favorite so far and all your covers I like it, so imagine how much I like this.
best part is with Agordas!!! I would love to hear more songs with Agordas and Minniva one day ..
Wow!!! I was waiting for this one!!! thanks and you guys did an amazing job!!! keep it up!!!
:D I will!
I saw them perform this recently with Christina Scabbia and was memorable. You a such a great strong voice Minniva
Fantastic! You are great Minniva!
Really great n' astounding cover Minniva :-) I love it, especially because it's one of the best song of the band.
Wonderful, thank you for this!
Where can I press "LIKE" again???? You are pretty good!!! Amazing job, as always!
:D Thank you big time!
wow ...her vocals... just WOW !!!!
Is it just me or do Women from central Europe have better singing styles than Women from North America? No offense to anyone who's American or Canadian.
slow clap. ....very well done.
great song choice , I love how you make reaching the higher notes seem effortless.
And that look Andre gives at the beginning of the growl will make children run away ;)
Haha, yeah, children also would maybe get nightmares of my appearance from that part xD
It's very difficult not to enjoy her isn't it
The chorus parts sound fuckin awesome
Sin lugar a duda uno de los mejores covers a ÉPICA
Ojala algún dia seas líder de una BANDA
I love this song with Simone. But your performance is awesome too! Realy beautiful
OMG BRAVOOOOO!!! This is one of my fav. Epica's songs and you mastered it and even gave some extra!!! Amazing *claps* :D (I can't believe how you can sound so much like Simone!)
Good job everybody!!!
Epica, Nightwish and Within Temptation need to collab with you.
This world isn't ready for something that amazing. If that happened they would tear a hole in the fabric of reality and cause a universal cataclysmic event. Probably.
Why? She does great covers, but that's because she sounds very similar to the original vocalists. What would she add that they don't already have?
That would be a Live Show worth watching
this is the kind of stuff that only happens once in a thousand years, when all the planets align
you're always ruling all songs,how?
It is talent to spare!
I hope to see your own band soon,find the best and the most dedicated musicians and give us your natural talent.
Keep shining shooting star!
wuoooo!!!!!!! genial!! impecable cover, felicidades tienes un voz hermosa
That's.... Simply amazing... Really! I can't describe how much i love this cover, good job!!
Awesome stuff keep it up minniva!
Amazing! Love that way you do the videos as well.
Very beautiful job! :D you nailed this song down. Keep up the great work!
Sounds better than the original, well done Minniva, greetings from Peru
Absolutely nailed it!
Wow! This is so amazing! Bravooo!
Great cover, and one of my favourite Epica songs! Your voice really suits Epica- you should cover more of their songs!
- Rachel
OMG Storm the sorrow, so happy to see this being covered :D
I love Epica... I never thought you'd sing this....oh may G!!!!!.. your awesome!!!!!!
Bravissima come sempre Marit !!
Wow. I wish you all the best and a big success, because you deserve it. And btw. that was better than oryginal ^_^
Wonderful ! thanks for this cover, great job ! :)
Parabéns! Muito bem executado ,tanto no vocal como no instrumental ! Ficou ótimo.
You can see how much she loves this song!

DevourSlumber well aren't you an eloquent troll. That must've taken a lot of brain power to come up with.
Proud of you.
Amazingly perfect!
I just found your channel and I'm totally bingeing, your covers are great! Would you consider doing Requiem For The Innocent (Elizabeth Pt. 2) or The Black Halo from Kamelot?
Thank you Lia :) The Black Halo is a good one! I would love to do a cover of it /,,/ It is noted ^_^
Oh, yay!
+Minniva Official and the haunting of kamelot ft.simone simons
Marcela Matsuda she already did! ( the haunting is the best kamelot song no exceptions ;-) )
AWESOME!
Another one that i start to prefer over the original
I recently discovered your channel and I got shivers hearing your voice! I would love to hear a cover of Sancta Terra by Epica, I'm sure you'll do an amazing job. Love from Colombia 💖🇨🇴
