Lyrics: Amongst Stars
[Intro: Anneke van Giersbergen]
Eh...
[Verse 1: Tomi Joutsen]
Close your eyes now
And give in to the night
Soar above the stars
Forget what's behind
Don't stare up at the setting sun
Or the light of dawn
[Chorus: Anneke van Giersbergen]
Follow the thread of gold
Drift on its tide
It's a path of stars
Ride on the golden stream
And break the waves
In a gilded trail of stars
[Tomi Joutsen & Anneke van Giersbergen in turns]
Rise, Rise
Above the golden way of stars
Rise, Rise
Beyond the trail of stars
[Verse 2: Tomi Joutsen]
The light will lure you
To lands forged by demise
To the shores of death
The blooming meadows
Seduce and intoxicate
With a deceiving scent
[Chorus: Anneke van Giersbergen]
Follow the thread of gold
Drift on its tide
It's a path of stars
Ride on the golden stream
And break the waves
In a trail of stars
[Verse 3: Anneke van Giersbergen]
I've seen the lights up in the sky
Like beacons from another shore
So don't look back, don't look a head
Just close your eyes, give in to the night
[Verse 4: Tomi Joutsen]
Close your eyes
And give in to the night
Soar above the stars
The blooming meadows
Seduce and intoxicate
With a deceiving scent
[Chorus: Anneke van Giersbergen]
Follow the thread of gold
Drift on its tide
It's a path of stars
Ride on the golden stream
And break the waves
In a gilded trail of stars
[Tomi Joutsen & Anneke van Giersbergen in turns]
Rise, rise, rise
Above the golden way of stars
Rise, rise, rise
Beyond the trail of stars
[Outro: Anneke van Giersbergen]
Eh...

[@ginnydileo5168]

The best part of this reaction was watching the sheer joy on your faces.

[@Spetulhu]

One has to admit I too sit here with a silly grin on my face listening to the song. And I even got an old mate to say it was "good", quite a statement from a guy who usually sticks to country...

[@Finkele1]

Pedro is so into this :D

[@MaximusSkywlaker]

Anneke is one of the best female vocalists in metal ever. Such a magic voice

[@BryonAutry]

MaximusSkywlaker for sure! And the way hers and Tomi's vocals work with each other is just pure magic. :D

[@klausherbert3040]

Bryon Autry Not as good as together with Garm from Ulver but ure right theyre damn amazing

[@kristonic1269]

Check her duet with another dutch nightingale, Sharon den Adel!

[@vitordias7822]

No words for Annie, just feelings

[@user-gn2ig8bc1g]

MaximusSkywlaker Music: Lacuna coil.

[@jeremiwojcik8268]

Amorphis is one of the best Melodic Death Metal Bands worldwide!🤘

[@msumungo]

These guys are so honest and so much fun to watch. Greetings from Finland :DDD

[@chileanresistance4592]

Anneke never disappoints.......one of my favorite Metal divas.......and this collab...no words...masterpiece!!

[@TheGreatAbaddon]

Amorphis is one of my favorite bands, its awesome you guys like them so much

[@APREACTS]

I am going to see them in Sept. 19+ show otherwise we would go together.

[@jerejaatinen7820]

@@APREACTS How was the show? On a different note, Skyforger is my favorite Amorphis album and I think you guys would like it a lot.

[@juolukka]

Watching you guy's made me so happy 😍

[@donovanbarkman6097]

This is one of my absolute favorite songs. Seeing you two bond and enjoy it together is absolute zen to me. These are the moments I enjoy with my son. 100% relate to this and I can see that you cherish it as I do.

[@-Tharos-]

This song is amazing, out of this world! I'm not a big Amorphis fan, but every now and then they pull these awesome tracks!!

[@BryonAutry]

100% agree. This song continues to blow me away. It's uncontestedly my favorite song on the album and one of the best songs I've heard in awhile. So good!

[@mstellina7]

My fav song too so far. I can’t stop listening to it. Tomi and Anneke 2 wonderful voices!

[@r3tr0042]

Another amazing video! Keep up the awesome work guys🙏🏼

[@nirppurotta]

The happiness on your faces ❤️. Makes this video even better 👍. Im so happy that our amazing country can bring you joy with music

[@joshuacoe8235]

Amazing track and amazing album!!

[@tetryl1]

I love this song so much, it's my new favorite. Just so flawless with Anneke, this one is going to be impossible to ever beat. Tomi is a legend of my small(ish) home town Lohja, and just a great guy not just an artist. As the saying goes, it's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice.. and Tomi is a really nice guy. Terkkuja Lohjalta.

[@sociedadaliwen4461]

Any song with anneke is a jewel. Congrats guys for choose this mangnificient piece of melodic metal. Hail Anneke

[@sonyavengeance]

You and your twin are so perfect to watch review music and this is the first time I've EVER seen you 2! Instant sub! 👍🏼❤️

[@idealmma]

The story behind their harmonies help make the song one their top songs ever.

[@1410PK]

It's 2020 I love this song. You guys have the best and whatever you wish for.

[@AgenciaCosmica]

it was sooooo fun to watch you guys! Thanks for this! I agree... this song gives me goose bumbs especially Riiiiise part. Orgasmic!

[@artofaagiir]

This song is so amazing! It makes me so happy and sad at the same time! But when i se you two digging this song makes me even happier!

[@johngonzalezgomez6899]

Amorphis and Opeth are My fav bands! Thanks for Your great reaction for both. Greetings from Colombia My friends!

[@VladWolfshade]

best two prog metal bands ever, like eeeever!!

[@blackdragonburn470]

I said it on the official video, and ill say it again here. This song is an audible embrace. Absolutely amazing.

[@user-jf3nq5ky1u]

That's my favorite song from the album too. Great reaction. Thanks :)

[@realmusic9777]

Amorphis are my favourite band. I love the smiles you glow when the music starts. You both have a passion for metal and I love it.

[@RockstarWizardess]

This is the most badass song I saw you review so far (by a band that's new to me). I heard the name Amorphis before, but I've never listened to them until I saw this video. They did a great job, you did a great job. Keep going :-)

[@ToastedCigar]

This song is my favourite, too! Such a beautiful and powerful song, gives me chills every time I listen to this. As you said, this album is a masterpiece. I've also found how great of a songs "Heart of Giant" and "Daughter of Hate" are, I just keep discovering more things of this album the more I listen to it.

[@1SecondToLight]

Daughter of Hate is my favorite, like Dark Path was on the previous album. Seriously, those 2 songs are perfect from the start to the finish. They both equally melodic and agressive.

[@KreshDraven6]

Great reaction guys ! The album is absolutely perfect, 10/10 for sure and album of the year so far. Oh and I love the BDM shirt

[@djth666]

I am just as hooked on this song as you are. I can't get the song out of my head. Wasn't into this band before this...now...I'm checking more of them out....

[@johnnykawakid]

great review lads, superb. great song, from a great band. keep them vids shooting through.

[@peterkarargiris4110]

I can't wait for my copy of the album to arrive. I ordered it after I saw your review Pedro.Great reaction as always guys! \m/

[@APREACTS]

You will not be disappointed....I guarantee you that much.

[@franciscomacias3994]

I was listening to the album two days ago in the morning and when this track showed up, I was like "wait, is this Anneke?" and all of a sudden I was online and I've realized they put the vid like an hour before from the same exact day. This track is fantastic in any way. I've been listening to Amorphis for a few months (I know who they were, I just didn't check them out before) and I can say is one of the more complex bands I've ever known. Keep up the good work guys, greetings from Venezuela!

[@morganrafter72]

Love the reviews guys

[@peranberggren]

Pedros kareoke moment 5:44 into the video 🤘😀🤘 awesome as always guys!!

[@Rick2k2k]

Stunning song. I agree with you, this is the best metal album of 2018 so far. A masterpiece from Amorphis.

[@Cisuh84]

Greetings from Finland! U guys are awesome :P

[@slr1977]

Oh man, so cool too see the face. The reaction. He knew what to expect and he got it :) It is like such satisfaction right there

[@Vanes-NL]

Seriously... this should be the offical video of the song. This is what happiness looks like

[@AriaIsara]

I'm currently obsessed with this song. The composition seems relatively simply but it's soooooo catchy and melodic and Anneke's soaring voice is beautiful and her voice + Tomi's clean and harsh vocals sounds so good!! :D Haha I love how happy the song is making you ^_^

[@dadghost7943]

Didn't know Anneke van Giersbergen was in this song and recognized the voice emediately. Have been a fan of her since the 90's with the gathering and still with Vuur.... Also in Ayreon she is awesome....

[@much_love]

Dont forget her work with Devin Townsend (fan since Mandylion)

[@kristonic1269]

Love your enthusiasm on this! ✌

[@barroomhero134]

wow, wasn't sure where to start with Amorphis but I'm glad I started here. Beautiful song. Definitely gonna check out this album

[@TheFundead]

Great vid guys!!!... Love Amorphis!!! Wife loves them too, so she enjoyed watching this with me!!!...lol

[@williamsousa6107]

Som maravilhoso,letra maravilhosa,Anekke perfeita 💕👏👏👏

[@Fullcolorguilt]

So good to see someone else whos been so moved by this song. Absolute masterpiece.

[@Frosch666]

F... amazing. I love the new Amorphis album and this track is one of those who burns right into your brain from the very beginning .... "starssssss rise!"

[@windrider6124]

My favorite on the album too Pedro. I'm usually a critical nerd when it comes to metal, but this song is just flawless in my ears. Everything comes together here, the vocal combinations, the melodies, the atmosphere and the lyrics.. Outstanding.

[@elsyveel7134]

*headbangs for 5 minutes as a reaction* I love metalheads x') ♥

[@OwnedByGalatea]

I wouldnt be surprised if this song was the metal song of the year in every metal radio stations and such, its just so incredible masterpiece of metal and when Anekke sings in this as well, its done, this will be the metal song of the year :) With love from Finland. Keep up the good work A&P !..!(-.-)!..!

[@SimaSupremacy]

It's fun because : watching your review two years later and it is still relevant. QoT is hands down the best album of 2018

[@APREACTS]

I agree 100%, best album of 2018

[@MrMauriv]

Love your reactions :D keep it up guys ^^

[@APREACTS]

Thank you

[@danielservi]

Bahhh banda muito foda!!! Combinação perfeita ! Viva o metal !

[@necessitousfox]

I'm ashamed that I haven't listened to this since I'm a f*cken Finn... this was just so awesome, thank you so much for reminding me of Amorphis. This song just goes through your soul and you feel like your in some crazy blender machine. Wow.

[@wrok88]

Indeed a really great song. Great songwriting, perfect melodies that flow over really well and Anneke really brings an extra dimension to this song. It definitely gives that feeling of epicness when listening to the song. This will probably conquer many metalhearts ;-)

[@pestifer6577]

Amazing Song and my favourite album 2018 so far 🤘🏻 in my opinion its so important to support such outstanding artists and honor the effort they put in music Btw. try to get an interview with Amorphis 😉 Also Great reaction

[@spm15s85]

as soon as I saw your facial expressions i subscribed ! u guys are awesome !

[@larspetteranfinsen5541]

the rate of touching melodic qualitysongs that band produce its scary,, many bands are good but these guys are EPIC

[@stasa-X]

I loved Amorphis from this song, Anneke is one of my favourite singers and from this song i descovered Amorphis and now i am a huge fan of them. Great reaction, thanks 👍.

[@odinsangelfly]

I fully agree with you😍

[@MaxStone289]

Great song and reaction as always, if I already commented sorry, but I think its cool that the rhythm guitarist was also the original lead vocalist on the bands first couple of albums.

[@fdsannie]

I saw this and absolutely loved it!

[@gehennafrom]

20.7.2018 can't come soon enough. Amorphis, Insomnium, Dark Tranquillity, Lacuna Coil and some more at the same day. As soon as I heard Anneke's voice in this masterpiece it become my favorite also. :D Been fan of her voice since 1995.

[@ProspectorAl]

It's amazing to me that they only get BETTER with time!!!

[@d4rkness1015]

Best reaction video ever :)

[@constantinciubotaru6687]

From a NW fan..this..masterpiece makes me blush..OMG..Finnish bands got smth don't know why

[@De-M-oN]

A female with amorphis....... I LOVE Gothic and Gothic Metal and as I saw this videoclip......... it has growl, clean vocal and a female ...... holy shit I begin to love this band O.O

[@morganrafter72]

Great review great song

[@TheAnriii]

I am not a big Amorphis listener usually, but this is so far the best song of the best album of 2018 for me!

[@hephesto555666]

Great song on a truly amazing album. It's going to take something very special to top this one for my album of the year! Plus it help Anneke does guest vocals, she always brings something special to every project she's involved with. Been a fan ever since The Gathering, saw those guys a ton when I was much younger (95/96-ish) and she just keeps popping up in other projects I love like Devin Townsend. Helps she's a local, in fact got to see her live again this past week with the residential orchestra ;-) Shame about the copyright strike, doesn't seem to have any legal bearing whatsoever given the way in which you guys, and reaction channels in general, use these songs. Generally no ad revenue is made, the material in question is used for review or satire, while the very nature of reaction channels gives the video transformative value (though that's a legal extremely grey area, same goes for lets play-series). Heck you guys most likely drive more sales towards labels and bands alike, simply by exposing people to new music. Come to think of it a spurious copyright claim is illegal in and of itself, not that such a thing is going to stop scammers, automated bots and those wanting to silence consumer criticism from still filling them. It's sadly enough a very one-sided burden of proof..........when will a claimant get a counter strike for filling false infringements? Still, better safe than sorry. KZbin is after all, and quite sadly, extremely defensive and in the camp of claimants as they do not want to loose even more advertisers and their essentially protected status as a platform. And lets not forget that Google still runs KZbin at a loss, though certainly a loss they can carry.

[@diegooliveirabenjamin]

This track it really is a masterpiece, seriously!

[@hugolourenco6981]

Already a classic... His melodic and harsh vocal are amazing. One of the most gifted singers i know. Last Albuns "Winter's Sleep" song was a preview for this new album and its fabulous. Heart of a Giant is as great as well. Best metal album of the year for sure.

[@dan-lv8ss]

Anekke von Giersbergen for me the best female vocalists. I like the Gathering so mutch, espacaly Mandylion and Nighttime Birds. Absolute Masterpieces ! Maybe you can do once In Motion #1 ?

[@thomasedwardlawrence9775]

The CD will arrive in two days, can't wait!

[@ChrisPage68]

This is on heavy rotation with me too. Once I realised Anneke was singing, I was IN!! 🤘 Shame about Japanese bands, because I wanted your opinion of Lovebites. I really love what they do, especially Midori the lead guitarist. She shreds like her life depends on it! 🎸

[@johnxipo77]

For sure the best album of the year so far!!

[@salsonia]

Amorphis nunca desilude!! Saudações lusas

[@johanvanoppen1627]

Go Anneke 🤘🤘

[@jeffrichards8257]

I could not agree more awesome freakin song my favorite on album

[@Hulluporro]

This new album is amazing the last one was awesome to and actually there is no bad Amorphis Album at all-> Elegy 1996 is pure Amorphis magic listen to "the orphan" you will start to cry for joy

[@werc85music]

Tontos growls gives me goosebumbs everytime.. :)

[@Orlanabara]

Great reaction. Loving the love for Bloodshot Dawn, on that note why not do some Bloodshot Dawn (Unified maybe ;-))

[@joaoraz9749]

Will you make a Review about VUUR?

[@joshuacoe8235]

My favorite track is We Accursed.

[@Cognitive_Wisdom]

same here :D

[@LuisMiranda-ww1ko]

This album is quickly becoming one of the best of the year. Every single song is epic...

[@Retset]

I love Nightwish and Amorphis and fully agree that this had to be the Sunday video. It is a fantastic album from a brilliant band. The album is excellent and I really enjoy 'We Accursed' from it; something a bit different. I did wonder during your review about the songs in the background! Luckily, it was hard to hear much of them ...

[@APREACTS]

I only realize what I had done with the background songs the next day....I was like...shit....I just kinda leaked 3 songs...I screwed up. Gladly it is fainted enough and nobody from the band or label had an issue, but it was a lesson learned. Going forward on reviews of albums before the release date I will include only songs that have been released already.

[@SimpaticoReal]

I'm honestly really surprised by how popular this track was off the new album. I love the new album, but Amongst Stars was a standout for me. I figured it would be too "soft" or "poppy" for most Amorphis fans/metalheads, but I'm glad to see the positive reaction. The Bee, The Golden Elk and Daughter of Hate were other standouts for me as well.

[@MetalAtog]

Got to agree that this is the best album of the year so dar, another great albums of 2018 so far are, for me, "Unsung Prophets & Dead Messiahs" by Orphaned Land and "Exile Amongst the Ruins" by Primordial.

[@javiertorres7970]

Have their own style. Their own sound. Great visuals.

[@tolkienismaster]

Blind Guardian's The Script for my Requiem (studio or live from the DVD Imaginations Through the Looking Glass). Thank you.

[@diandraletelier2460]

Amazing performance!

[@Thnielsen85]

Incredible song! with the album Queen of Time, i am seriously falling in love with Amorphis. btw. you can do Brothers of Metal - Prophecy of Ragnarök as you promised this month, they are not with any record company. ;) and as always, great reaction!

[@APREACTS]

You will see it on this channel this month!!! 100%

[@MaxStone289]

Awesome reaction to a great song, I agree with you about it being a very good song, but my favorite from the album is Heart of the Giant. I think the intro can be the soundtrack to the most amazing boss battle fight of all time. It's so majestic and epic, it gives me chills every time I hear it.

[@SargonnasIncarnate]

Heheh... Amorphis... I see trees and flowers blooming as I pass by listening to em. I could do without the bee swarms though. Anaphylactic issues.

[@erenn6476]

HEY GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! back at you guys

[@flavius14]

Album of the year 2018. Period. Daughter of Hate, The Bee, Amongst Star if i really really have to pick 3 songs.. Btw in a few weeks do Amorhis: Black Winter Day reaction and/or My Kantele.

[@boris9047]

Another song with her on vocals is: AMORPHIS - 'Her Alone' feat. Anneke van Giersbergen (OFFICIAL LIVE TRACK) Check it out, also a great one.

[@GeneralCalculus]

I'm loving this, yet somehow there's some surreal feel to amorphis employing "beauty&beast" vocals.

[@finnsailing69]

have you guys done a "turmion kätilöt - dance panique" react? :D

[@sandman5359]

Best song in the album is Heart of the Giant. That keyboard solo followed by the guitar solo is a cherry on the top of that amazing song.
