LVT It wasn't *just* Rev. Sure, the Rev cared about it a lot, but what makes this so good was you could tell, *everyone* wanted this to be beautiful in its own way.
Also cant forget they got the guys from Oingo Boingo in there to help out with arrangement for the brass sections. Its The Rev's baby, but as they say it takes a family to raise a baby and everyone came together as a family to raise this masterpiece.
One of the most well crafted instrumentals I have heard from this band. Everything syncs so well, the orchestra knows exactly what they're conveying and works together perfectly, same for the band themselves. Easily one of their best songs.
Many speak ill of Avenged simply because they do not follow the pattern of metal that people call "true metal". This is magnificent. Avenged creates splendid and creative songs. Not we see something similar elsewhere. Music is an art and Avenged can merge all that is best in it. Love it or Die.
@@hazardgaminghg122 Forgive my melodramatic ass, I was an edgy 12 year old who knew nothing about music. As an adult, I agree, they're still real fucking good. edit: deleted my original comment, too embarrassing
In my opinion, this is their greatest work of art. It's just perfect in every way. I'll miss the way The Rev wrote songs. He was one of the best songwriters of all time in my opinion. foREVer in our hearts.
Possibly one of the best instrumentals I've ever listened to. It takes you through a range of emotions, and the transition from silly, to horror to emotional and sad is done so fantastically.
It’s freaking sick. Just discovered this song yesterday and it’s great. I found this band in like 2010 and forgot about them. Came back around 2020 and rediscovered my favorite song MIA.
this has to be the best instrumental version of this song that i've heard, best in that it literally sounds like the song minus the vocals rather than a reconstruction of the song with midi instruments, awesome work!
+Jay superstion He meant what was the sad part of the song lol. That would be the parts instrumentally where the brass cuts out. The use of primarily stringed instruments creates a softer sound, which with a minor key makes it sound sad.
Before the story begins, is it such a sin for me to take what's mine until the end of time We were more than friends before the story ends And I will take what's mine, create what God would never design Our love had been so strong for far too long, I was weak with fear that something would go wrong, before the possibilities came true, I took all possibility from you Almost laughed myself to tears, conjuring her deepest fears Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times, I can't believe it, Ripped her heart out right before her eyes, Eyes over easy, eat it eat it eat it She was never this good in bed even when she was sleepin' now she's just so perfect I've never been quite so fucking deep in it goes on and on and on, I can keep you lookin' young and preserved forever, with a fountain to spray on your youth whenever 'Cause I really always knew that my little crime would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs and I know, I know it's not your time but bye, bye and a word to the wise when the fire dies you think it's over but it's just begun but baby don't cry You had my heart, at least for the most part 'cause everybody's gotta die sometime we fell apart let's make a new start 'cause everybody's gotta die sometime yeah but baby don't cry Possibilities I'd never considered, are occurring the likes of which I'd never heard, Now an angry soul comes back from beyond the grave, to repossess a body with which I'd misbehaved Smiling right from ear to ear Almost laughed herself to tears Must have stabbed him fifty fuckin times I can't believe it Ripped his heart out right before his eyes Eyes over easy Eat it eat it eat it Now that it's done I realize the error of my ways I must venture back to apologize from somewhere far beyond the grave I gotta make up for what I've done 'Cause I was all up in a piece of heaven while you burned in hell, no peace forever 'Cause I really always knew that my little crime would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs and I know, I know it's not your time but bye, bye and a word to the wise when the fire dies you think it's over but it's just begun but baby don't cry You had my heart, at least for the most part 'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime, we fell apart Let's make a new start 'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime yeah But baby don't cry I will suffer for so long (What will you do, not long enough) To make it up to you (I pray to God that you do) I'll do whatever you want me to do (Well then I'll grant you one chance) And if it's not enough (If it's not enough, If it's not enough) If it's not enough (Not enough) Try again (Try again) And again (And again) Over and over again We're coming back, coming back We'll live forever, live forever Let's have wedding, have a wedding Let's start the killing, start the killing Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life?

Fun fact, this was originally supposed to be part of a Halloween EP but the label scrapped it and told them they’d be absolutely fucking crazy not to put this on the actual album
The rev is fuckin genius, this song he create, he wrote the lyric, he do some instrumental like piano part, and also the composer, and also wicked drummer, hmmm no one can replace you in avenged sevenfold, dear jimmy
@@pietpadda593 it's actually true from what I heard on RUclips about and interview with me shadows from a7x he said that Jimmy 'the rev' Sullivans death was accidental
No shame- I literally just got so excited suddenly and teared up over this instrumental. I have NEVER teared up over music before- I mean, if it's a sad song, maybe, but not really. This is just so good that I started tearing up over it and I'm still amazed by that.
I was nine when the album dropped, I was a bit disappointed at the time, with it drifting away from the City Of Evil sound, but I still liked it. Now I love it so much, and don’t know how I didn’t like it more as a kid.
As you grow your taste in music grows mature as well and becomes more diverse. I was 12 when I found a7x, I didn't like their 2nd album back then, but now, 12 years later, I came back and got addicted to it.
Omg bro the wood winds and brass in this song are so awesome I look up to the person playing the bari sax in this it’s so awesome love the sound and the whole song in general but omg🤩
dadiocoleman not necessarily necrophillia, when the lyrics go: "our love was far too strong for far too long, *I was weak with fear that something would go wrong"* it gives more of a reason, not a good one, but it isn't necrophillia the way I see it.

5:10 why is this part so beautiful with and without words like It could be use in a Horror Love Story where a killer realizes that they betrayed the one they loved the most (Higurashi Chapter 5 for example)
I really hope this isn't too much to ask for, but please PLEASE PLEASE could you upload this same instrumental but WITH the choir chanting vocals? that would be tremendously epic
I think this is the best instrumental ive heard - current/modern and/or oldschool - mostly because of how it makes me feel. I just love it sooo much, 1:49 onwards is incredible piece of work. I wish I could create something as amazing one day.

How can anyone listen to this... and not think they are amazing musicians? I heard so much more of this that I couldn't hear in the original version.
You had me in the first half 😂
The best part is at 0:00 - 7:57
RatHead Master so true
Nice name
true story
True
lmao everyone knows and agreed
I never realized JUST how fantastic the music IS WOW!
Best instrumental version of this song on RUclips by far. This is my favorite A7X song, the music alone for it is god-tier.
this is the real deal thats why...
J o j o
The pre chorus and chorus is so pure and beautiful
Came back to listen and still beautiful
Another year on and I'm still crying
I can still hear them singing in my heart XD
Love a7x and always will till the time i will take wants mine
thought I was the only one 🥺
Oh hi there kevin didn't expect to see you here
Love this song with words, and I love it without the words, too!
I used to love this song.
I still love it, but I used to too.
Jesus the Violin and Cello are so heavenly
Seriously. I can't get over how amazingly awesome this is. This is the best piece of instrumental music I have ever heard in my life. EVER.
It’s freaking sick. Just discovered this song yesterday and it’s great. I found this band in like 2010 and forgot about them. Came back around 2020 and rediscovered my favorite song MIA.
Finally can show this to my parents without them freaking out

Who else was singing the vocals in their head during this? I was.
I *WAS* singing the vocals at like 1 am and i think i annoyed the neighbours. (they're very christian lol)
who *wasn't* singing the vocals in their head? that's what i'd like to know
I was singing them
Same but for some parts I was Butchering (Pun Intended)
I was and my parents where slightly concerned when I started yelling “eat it”
The rev is a musical genius
Wow, what an awesome sounding and beautiful instrumental metal song. I’m sure the lyrics will be just as beautiful and not at all fucked up whatsoever
this has to be the best instrumental version of this song that i've heard, best in that it literally sounds like the song minus the vocals rather than a reconstruction of the song with midi instruments, awesome work!
Never realized how many times the style in the music changed
This is so good,you can definitely hear how much effort they put into this song
The sad part made me remember the REV.

Before the story begins,
is it such a sin
for me to take what's mine
until the end of time
We were more than friends
before the story ends
And I will take what's mine,
create what God would never design
Our love had been so strong for far too long,
I was weak with fear that something would go wrong,
before the possibilities came true,
I took all possibility from you
Almost laughed myself to tears,
conjuring her deepest fears
Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times,
I can't believe it,
Ripped her heart out right before her eyes,
Eyes over easy, eat it eat it eat it
She was never this good in bed
even when she was sleepin'
now she's just so perfect I've never been quite so fucking deep in
it goes on and on and on,
I can keep you lookin' young and preserved forever,
with a fountain to spray on your youth whenever
'Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
and I know, I know it's not your time
but bye, bye
and a word to the wise when the fire dies
you think it's over but it's just begun
but baby don't cry
You had my heart, at least for the most part
'cause everybody's gotta die sometime
we fell apart
let's make a new start
'cause everybody's gotta die sometime yeah
but baby don't cry
Possibilities I'd never considered,
are occurring the likes of which I'd never heard,
Now an angry soul comes back from beyond the grave,
to repossess a body with which I'd misbehaved
Smiling right from ear to ear
Almost laughed herself to tears
Must have stabbed him fifty fuckin times
I can't believe it
Ripped his heart out right before his eyes
Eyes over easy
Eat it eat it eat it
Now that it's done I realize the error of my ways
I must venture back to apologize from somewhere far beyond the grave
I gotta make up for what I've done
'Cause I was all up in a piece of heaven
while you burned in hell, no peace forever
'Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
and I know, I know it's not your time
but bye, bye
and a word to the wise when the fire dies
you think it's over but it's just begun
but baby don't cry
You had my heart, at least for the most part
'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime,
we fell apart
Let's make a new start
'Cause everybody's gotta die sometime yeah
But baby don't cry
I will suffer for so long
(What will you do, not long enough)
To make it up to you
(I pray to God that you do)
I'll do whatever you want me to do
(Well then I'll grant you one chance)
And if it's not enough
(If it's not enough, If it's not enough)
If it's not enough
(Not enough)
Try again
(Try again)
And again
(And again)
Over and over again
We're coming back, coming back
We'll live forever, live forever
Let's have wedding, have a wedding
Let's start the killing, start the killing
Do you take this man in death for the rest of your unnatural life?
(Yes, I do.)
Do you take this woman in death for the rest of your unnatural life?
(I do)
I now pronounce you...
'Cause I really always knew that my little crime
would be cold that's why I got a heater for your thighs
