[@GenMVeers]

Finally! I'm still behind, but when I saw "Amongst the Stars" had appeared on KZbin, I dropped everything, and leaped over a couple of yet-to-be-watched-reactions-to-songs, because it's _about_ time for more *Amorphis* and it's ESPECIALLY time - after a _year_ of these two-per-day-videos of yours - to *finally* have *QUEEN ANNEKE van GIERSBERGEN.* She's one of the most sought-after guest vocalists _and_ most beloved persons in the whole of Metal community. Plus, 2019 is her career's *25th* Anniversary. You _need_ to do her time in *The Gathering* (1995-2006, _final_ show in Finland, and I missed it, snif!), *Agua de Annique* (a "project" band, 2007-2011) and its contunuation under the name of *Anneke van Giersbergen* (2011-2013), her collaborations with Arjen Anthony Lucassen's *Ayreon* (recorded in 1998, 2007, 2015 and 2017) and their _shared_ band *The Gentle Storm* (2014-2016), her live collaboration with *Danny Cavanagh* of *Anathema* - WHY has _that_ band not been featured, dammit! - recorded in 2008, her collaborations with *Devin Townsend* (recorded in 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2016 and 2018), her _own_ band *VUUR* (All-Caps; "fire", "passion" or "drive" in Dutch, 2016-present, _first_ show in Finland, Tuska Open Air 2017, I was in the front row), _and_ preferably her guest appearances with *Napalm Death* (2006), *Moonspell* (2008), and *Anathema* (2011). Screw Within Temptation (2009) - that band is _way_ overrated and Sharon den Adel leaning towards camera, giving plenty of view of her cleavage in like, every other music video of WT, lost its appeal pretty frakkin' early. Yeah, Anneke is the greatest. *Floor* is the best, vocal-ability-wise, but _no-one_ has _that_ *magic* which Anneke's voice possesses... Hmm, maybe now that _that_ is out of my system, I watch how you react to this video ;)

[@DethronerX]

Love her version of Ravenclaws with Moonspell, Live

[@josecontreras9229]

Amen!

[@josecontreras9229]

You can do The Gathering Live from "A noise Severe" DVD, which was recorded in Chile, my country. Strange Machines is a good choice, one of the classics.

[@DanUrbano]

She is my favorite singer by far. Please do The Gathering - Travel 😭🖤 Im so happy they just discovered her hahaha

[@alexeyyakovich7464]

"She's one of the most sought-after guest vocalists and most beloved persons in the whole of Metal community." Absolutely!!! "Floor is the best, vocal-ability-wise, but no-one has that magic which Anneke's voice possesses" Moreover, she is the most versatile, talented and fruitful ARTWISE.

[@digitalspecter]

That moment in the video when they are singing face to face.. it sent shivers down my spine as well! It's already musically top tier stuff and whoever arranged them in the video like that added a touch of genius to it. It's so good!

[@vinograd74]

Amorphis vocalist is same for growl and for melodic singing.

[@KreshDraven6]

Fucking Amorphis :) By far one of the most unique bands out there. This song rules ! The first time I heard this chorus...Man...It's so perfect ! One of the best songs on their last record, that for me was the best album of 2018, totally killer. And yeah, it's the same vocalist, he's amazing, great growls and beautiful clean vocals, and the female one is Anneke van Giersbergen, she's awesome too, her stuff with The Gathering is great

[@Honksu1986]

Amorphis album The Queen of Time must be the best album of 2018.

True!!! It would be a dream to watch those 2 bands in the same night You should take a look at delain too!!

[@Cormyre]

Man, Anneke is WITH them this time? I may have to change my plans and travel to see them. Last time I met them in basically a dive bar in Columbus, was so friggin' intimate, loved it.

[@dmphax]

Woah, it'll be a trip to get to their show, but I have to make it happen.

[@MetalMallet]

Anneke and Tomi are excellent vocalists. You’ve heard Anneke on some of Devin Townsend’s songs you’ve reacted to. She pops up on a lot of stuff. She’s done guest vocals for Devin, Novembers Doom, Giant Squid among many others. I think her main band is called Vuur at the moment.

[@GenMVeers]

Looking forward to *Amorphis feat. Anneke* in Tuska Open Air 2019! :) :) :)

[@pietrayday9915]

The song is about dying - compare/contrast it to the Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper", but this song adds an opposing point of view: in "Amongst the Stars" there's a bit of a point-counterpoint argument in the lyrics, on one hand or one point of view, the lyrics say to close your eyes and let life go, to follow the beacons leading to the peace of a mythical representation of death where spirits join the stars in the fields of the night sky, while on the other hand the lyrics from a different point of view negate that and respond in favor of fighting to stay alive, in favor of resisting the deceptive lure of the intoxicating peace of death. Most of the band's lyrics are based on Finnish folklore and mythology, I would bet this one is, too. A beautiful song, in any event, and a great collaboration with the vocalist from "The Gathering" - she works well with Amorphis! The Gathering is an amazing band as well - they were really doing some beautiful, unique, and influential music after they evolved from a death metal band back in the 90s, and Anneke was a big part of that transformation, adding a great deal of charisma to the act - see her performing live with "Strange Machines": kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3m4fqqfo7tld7M

[@khellendross3573]

Anneke is a legend! The Gathering is terrific, but she's guested in so many bands over the years. She also has her solo career, as well as Vuur and The Gentle Storm. All bands she was or is a main member of. She is one busy lady. Definitely one of my favorite Amorphis songs. Very talented band with a guy capable of doing terrific growls and fantastic cleans. Great pick Kai!

[@Cuckoorex]

I also love that when Sori mouths the word "wow" it coincides with the scream so it almost looks like it's her screaming. :-D

[@vladmetal]

"Amorphis - The Bee" next please!

[@Darkstartsi]

Tomi does both the smooth and harsh vocals. Anneke is a guest singer here. You should check out "The Bee" next. Killer vocals from Tomi on that track.

[@Beubeu_66]

This song gives me goosebumps every time! Love your reactions

[@annekeerik82]

The Bee now....Tomi Joutsen from Amorphis great vocals

[@Ana198]

I had a feeling you would like this one 😁 I can't wait for this summers Tuska festival in Helsinki Finland (Amorphis are Finnish) where both Amorphis and Anneke will be perfoming this song live for the first time 👍

[@andrewbrorherton6898]

@@stuartaustin8130 Untouchable live is epic. Fragile Dreams is the name of the song. But I knew what you meant.

[@Kai_kmk]

Thank you!!!! I think these lyrics too, like so many Amorphis songs are inspired by Finnish mythology. "Path of star" could be a reference to the Milky Way (Linnunrata in Finnish, literal translation is the 'Bird's Way'). In Finnish beliefs migrating water birds are messengers of the gods that are traveling from the upper world. These birds travel between worlds via the Milky Way. Birds like geese and swans were thought to carry human souls to the otherworld. The Milky Way was seen as the heavenly version of the world river, flowing down from the upper world to the middle and lower worlds. I think that the video is about a couple that can't take that path, they try but they can't go to afterworld.

[@Kai_kmk]

It's from the album 'Queen of Time', which you have by the way 😉

[@surfdeprived]

ANNEKE VAN GIERSBERGEN: She started out with The Gathering, then did her own thing with Agua De Annique, then she performed under her own name. In the meantime she has lent her vocals to everyone from Amorphis to Moonspell to Devin Townsend Project to Napalm Death.

[@papabear3x]

Amorphis is Hands down my favorite band. Their songs are dipped in Finnish Folklore. Tomy’s voice is terrific. Checkout their acoustic live album. Phenomenal.

[@raunorepomies8621]

Finally you reacted to this. I have been waiting for this one. Thx :-) Love from Finland :)

[@FinneousPJ1]

Tomi has the best growl in the history of never ever

[@arielurrutia5673]

Anneke van Giersbergen is the best female voice of Metal for my taste, and the work with "The Gathering" is a must. I recommend the themes "On most surfaces", "Third chance", "Liberty bell", "My electricity", "Broken glass", "You learn about it "," Leaves "," Strange machines "...

[@andrewbrorherton6898]

On most Surfaces that's the song I was thinking about earlier. That's a must if they do the Gathering.

[@MrMortadelas]

Nighttime Birds. Not the song, the album. All of it.

[@GenMVeers]

@@MrMortadelas Frak yeah! I'm thinking I will put in my testament that I want the 2007 2-CD 10th Anniversary version digibook buried with me :)

[@Blarkysh]

Liberty bell is the only song that i cant like from that album, but for me, how to measure the planet? is their best along mandylion, the song "travel" my favourite

[@Infyra]

And the song that Arjen wrote especially for her, Valley of the Queens by Ayreon.

[@alexeyyakovich7464]

Devin Townsend Project - Supercrush (Addicted Live) P.S.: Welcome to Anneke's world. She is the sunshine of all metal scene. Floor, Tarja, Sharon, Simone... They are all absolutely fantastic. But Anneke is out of the crowd. She is DIFFERENT. She is pure LIGHT. She is SMILE. She is JOY.

[@GenMVeers]

Yeah, Paradise Lost is also a band that is _way_ overdue on this channel, and we *need* more My Dying Bride - such and influential band, *always* the leader of the doom/death pack. _Sear Me MCMXCIII_ was *so* revolutionary and unexpected in 1993, and still the whole _Turn Loose the Swans_ album remains a milestone record - ask the fans, the critics, and most importantly, the _musicians_ who were inspired by that album.

You’ve no idea how happy this reaction made me, Anneke is my favourite artist full stop, I’ve travelled half way around the world twice to see her perform. I’ve got to know her a bit, and she is the loveliest person you could ever meet, with talent beyond words! Such a unique artist with a peerless voice. Go down the rabbit hole guys, you won’t regret it.

Amorphis - Black winter day

[@GenMVeers]

Suggested that ages ago, but the Patreon system is *not* working - I _love_ Tool, Gojira (so, so much!), Cradle of Filth, Behemoth (oh, so much!), Megadeth, Ghost, pre-"Black Album" Metallica, Pantera, Iron Maiden (the Most Metal Band in the World), Rammstein, Nightwish and Guns n' Roses, but this channel is OVERSATURATED with them - it is only a slight exaggeration when I say that together, those bands form about half of the videos on this channel so far. AT THE COST OF OTHER, EQUALLY WORTHY BANDS. Is _that_ fair, huh? Huh, Vin? Sori? (I'm afraid I can't _spare_ the time to read replies, as I already put *75* minutes into writing comments here tonight! But let the discussion flow.)

[@CorpsePaintAgnos]

-Amorphis "The Bee". -The Gathering "Leaves".

[@Jurkyification]

If they did The Bee Sori would once know some facts about the song.

[@MrTotalitarian]

I love the folk element transition at 4:10. Amorphous, for me, are a combination of lnsomnium and Nightwish in terms of musical style. And I absolutely love that combination of the guttural vocals and the woman’s auto vocals. I’d never heard anything from Amorphis before, and in fact I once had the opportunity to hear a song from them but I’d stupidly rebuffed it. I have now become a massive, massive Amorphis fan.

[@MrTotalitarian]

By the way, I’ve just recently joined this channel, and I’m impressed by the offerings: vin’s knowledge and Sori’s passion have kept me constantly glued to the reviews I’ve watched so far. Cheers mates, I’m definitely looking forward to more reviews.

[@beulahpizzahotpockets2169]

Oh my god you guys are awesome! Incredible song, yeah? It’s been on my repeat for a couple months now (I’m late to the party haha)

[@voyagerabove4034]

This has been my favorite band for about nineteen years now. They're a huge inspiration to me. One of the earliest names in melodic death metal. They've only had one bad album in nearly thirty years (Far from the Sun). So, every album of their's is a concept album. They usually take stories from the Kalevala (Finnish national epic), but this album (Queen of Time) is more broadly about time on a large scale (rise and fall of empires, stuff like that). Best exemplified in the song "Grain of Sand" off that the same album. This song is not about romance.

[@australianmade86]

I actually like Far From The Sun too haha

I’VE NEVER CLICKED SO FAST!!! I absolutely ADORE Amorphis, this song is from their latest album “Queen of Time”, Silver Bride was from the album “Skyforger”. Also Anneke is a fucking legend, my goth 12 year old me was so into The Gathering. Now, Amorphis usually sing about Finnish folklore based on the Kalevala, Amorphis have that proggy melodic death metal style and Tomi has one of the best voices in Metal, you should listen to “The Bee” and “Silent Waters”, those songs will blow you minds, especially since Vin was looking to watch or listen to some kind of sequence in songs, those two are about the same tale but from different points of views. This song you just listened is so beautiful and I had it on repeat for months while going through family issues. I love them and thank you SO SO MUCH for checking it out, i knew Sori would love it 😊

Finally! By far the best song in 2018.

[@tomazzo8093]

Anneke van Giersbergen is a legend. She was for a long time the singer of the Gothic Metal Band "The Gathering." She came with the 3rd Album "Mandylion" to the Band. Over the years, let The Gathering there Metal Roots behind, and the sound changed more and more in Independet stuff. After the album "Home" she left the band and dedicated a solo project called "Agua De Anique". The Sound was very similar to the last The Gathering Outputs with her. She is not a permanent member of Amorphis, but always has guest appearances on many metal bands, including Moonspell and the song "Scorpion Flower". Check it out... I saw Anneke live a few times. Were all memorable concerts. She has an incredible stage presence and always gives her best.

[@olegbuldakov2489]
