This song helped me go through the last 4 months, I got into a very deep depression from stress at work, I left work crying every day. And I made my mind to leave a few days ago and quit. I have my family to support me and my loved ones with me. I did rise again. Thank you for this.

[@gordonevans685]

I am in the same place my friend. I am glad you found solace as I have in the voice of this wonderful woman, I hope you are in a better place now. Simone has a way of taking me out of the now and putting my mind somewhere far superior to the reality of my actual situation. I could spout all sorts of superlatives, but at the end of the day, life is better with Simone singing in the back ground.

[@vince300100]

Simone levels up as she's aging. Her performance here is just mindblowing. To my ears she improved so much over the years that she's simply the best in the genre today. The quality of her tone is unmatched.

[@martinawolf9605]

So true

[@ezpzjayzaar]

Honorable mention: Floor Jansen :) The duet they do is Heaven ♥

[@ronl8495]

In my opinion I give Floor the edge only because of her slightly larger and stronger vocal range, but both AWESOME and second to none in their on right! ❤

Notice how they show THE OLD GUYS in the audience... I'm 66. I started with cello in the mid 60s. Pablo Casals and regular nights out to the symphony hall with the family were my inspiration. Now I'm a big fan of both these bands and of most folk, symphonic and doom metal especially. I fall burning and hazard trees in forest fires, drive extreme haul trucks at a gold mine, ride exotic Italian motorbikes and I'm taking up wingsuiting. Telling you kidos and listen to me now: Life is precious and life is short. Just having a body and walking upon this unlikely world itself is miraculous. Need not be reckless or ruthless, but focus, work hard, live your life with gusto, go all-out for your dreams and believe me, amazing things can happen. 😎

[@jonathanratliff4780]

You are SO Correct Jen!!! She and Tommy Karevick of Kamelot have the most perfect pitch in metal vocalist and of course her sonic beauty is unmatched. I luv Smoon like no other….along with Epica! Apocalyptica is great too!! Hope u r dojng well Jen 🤗

Now folks, this is singing. No more to add.

[@LigeiaNoire]

@@JeremyKeeneDrougnor This is about Simone. Not anyone else. There's many singers of equal value, all of them carved their own path and are just as valuable, however, we do not need to mention all of them, in order to value a singular performance.

[@JeremyKeeneDrougnor]

@@LigeiaNoire I'm not denigrating Simone at all, just merely pointing out that her path was paved by one who often gets overlooked is all. Trying to expand the 'This talent came from these' spheres, not by cutting Simone down.

[@LigeiaNoire]

@@JeremyKeeneDrougnor Absolutely. We all follow on our peers footsteps. She stands tall though.

As opposed to what? Obviously it’s singing anyone can see and hear that. I guess I don’t understand why you choose to be provocative without provocation.

[@marcusvalera5406]

Hermano....totalmente de acuerdo. El problema...es que esta musica...este genero...no es para cualquiera...y la industria del maistream va por vender y hacer dinero mas que por talento y arte. Compartamos....haber si asi hay un poco de aprecio. Saludos y seguir disfrutando la buena musica.

My world is caving in It holds me back and I can't breath Let me go The shadows closing in And takes the light away from me I am fading Can I fight this pain inside or forever hide Have I lost my mind I'm falling All this time I didn't see What you did to me Couldn't break me free You're holding Oh dear world can you see me now There's no more air left here to breathe I don't know what to believe Won't you hear me screaming out I feel so lost and numb inside Will I ever rise again? How can I face the truth When I'm alone with all the guilt That you gave me Your judgement tore me down Cutting through just like a sword And I let you Is it me or is it you Everything falls apart If I won't believe you My heart racing letting go Of my past, of your grasp All the weight that you put on me, and I know Now I fight this pain inside I will never hide I have found my mind I'm flying higher Oh dear world can you see me now There's no more air left here to breathe I don't know what to believe Won't you hear me screaming out I feel so lost and numb inside Will I ever rise Oh dear world now you'll see me clear There's so much air left here to breathe Now I know what to believe You shall hear me scream and shout I feel so loved and strong inside You will see me rise again I will ever rise The rain inside my heart Has gone away, no tears will flow I let you go

I AM SOBBING. SO beautiful. Simone, you make me cry all the time. Over a decade ago I saw you perform Tides of Time live and I was blubbering in the audience. You sang it so perfectly. It was AWESOME. Your voice is angelic and you are a true vocalist because you don't just sing the song beautifully, you deliver the emotion and it goes straight to my heart. I love you guys so much. ♥️ You've gotten me through so much darkness and loneliness over the years. Epica is a very special band. One of a kind. Epica and Apocalyptica are a perfect match!

Jesus Christ, this one hit me hard. I've recently fully seperated from a ten year marriage, which was overall nearly a twenty year relationship... At 36, for the first time since high school, I navigate a path alone and from here I can't see where it goes. It's frightening, but once the D word was said and she meant it: I knew I had to let her go and accept her need to find her own path. I cannot control what becomes of her choices, but I will rise again and always love her for what we made before.
