The Bard Song is a must :) Live version of course!!

[@KOLFINNAx86]

its fuckin epic

[@jcrosato]

PLEASE do this! Goose bumps :)

[@GloriaVictisDiesIlla]

Yes but make sure to react to the version from the same concert as this one, "Imaginations through the looking glass", it's by far the best one!

[@drevilrodrigues]

Bard's song must be done.

[@drevilrodrigues]

@@GloriaVictisDiesIlla totally second that

I'm so glad you picked the correct version - there would have been riots if you didn't use the live video...

Exactly!! That's the best version of Valhalla

@Fangalatic You may want to get your ears checked..

[@Satsujinki1973]

@Fangalatic And I quote "In music and music theory, the beat is the basic unit of time,[clarification needed] the pulse[clarification needed] (regularly repeating event), of the mensural level[1] (or beat level).[2] The beat is often defined as the rhythm listeners would tap their toes to when listening to a piece of music, or the numbers a musician counts while performing, though in practice this may be technically incorrect (often the first multiple level)."

[@Seishunin]

but the wacken 2016 version is good too ^^ but i agree ^^ live is way better than studio^^

[@janeswitthake1836]

I was at one of their concerts. The crowd did not stop, they actually picked it back up and chanted through town all the way to the train station after the concert.

Hansi Kürsch, not only one of the best and absolutely most unique voices in metal (and music in general) but also one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Have met him several times, not a bad bone in that dude's body.

[@sallbanjoman1790]

check out Savage Circus and tell if you will find them interesting also the singer might give you a mindfuck at first (you will know what i mean if you check them out)

[@chupasaurus]

I wouldn't say Hansi has a unique voice (a typical timbre for tenor) but no doubt he's a true master of throat-fu.

Sorry to say, we had to leave eventually :-( But we started another "Valhalla" chorus somewhere a few songs later as far as I can remember xD

How you get the crowd to stop as Blind Guardian is easy. You go get the acoustic guitars. Everything stops at that point.

[@TheBaertierchen]

But only to wait for the first tunes and then to sing along :P

[@TheDarkstormy]

@@TheBaertierchen Then Hansi can go take 5 minutes for himself.

[@khellendross3573]

This is what its all about. When you look up power metal in the dictionary, right next to it is a link to this song. Epic chorus, fast crazy tempo and blazing guitarwork. And this live version is definitely the best live version of Valhalla. But to really get something amazing you need to listen to the Live version of The Bard's Song from Wacken. Several Hundred thousand singing the entire song. Every other chorus on this song was sung by Kai Hansen of Helloween/Gamma Ray. So those high notes that Hansi seems to have a little trouble with were Kai's high screams. Hansi still does a pretty good job.

[@philippciunis]

Even tho it looks like several hundred thousands, it's actually at maximum around 80 000 (total visitors) ^^ and i was one of them :D

[@ChronicCheater]

Rumour has it there's still several thousand people still singing there to this day.

Yep, that's one of the things I love about power metal!

[@TheBaertierchen]

While very true, BG did/does take it to the extreme. There are very few bands that have these crowd "performances" at EVERY single concert of theirs and not only on one song but almost on every single one.

[@Mugthraka]

Its facts that even though metal is still considered a "niche" genre of music, it is the genre that gathers the most people at live events and performances. Metal festival goers are counted by the Tens thousands and even more.

I was part of the crowd back in 2003. The band made their own festival, that's the main reason why the people are so excited. it was a very beautiful experience I will never forget. Thanks for choosing this video

[@victorhugocordeiro7135]

Hi guys! Once again, wonderfull work, keep on it! And again, sorry for my english. I Just came here to congratulate your vídeo and say that I was very happy with all that you said. I’m odinist and along my life i suffer preejudgement for not being a Christian, hearing that my faith is all sort of bad thins, some alredy laughed at me, offended me, told me that my religion doesn’t exist etc... Although all of this, i never fought back, i always had in mind that i owe nothing to anyone, that my faith is for myself, is the path i choose to live, where i found myself and i’m happy. i really appreciate when i find people that, regardless of their faith, respect other people’s choices and don't judge them for follow a different path (like ou guys, at least in what i can see), becouse, in the end, what realy matters, is living your life the best way possible, in the way that brings you most happiness. That is it, thank you for the respect, the world need more of it!

Its a perfect example of Hansis vocal range , the perfection of the instruments, the love of a mixed festival crowd to BG and the wonderful crowdcontrol from BG over 75000 people 😉🤩

Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green. Demons and Wizards is group created by Blind Guardian's lead singer and the lead guitarist from Iced Earth.

[@ezet]

this one. just awesome song

[@Arnarost]

fiddler on the green is one of the most beautiful song of the last metal period

[@vicsdungeon]

Best song by Demons and Wizards, one of my favorite songs with Hansi singing (which is saying a lot for this BG fanboy). The lyrics are a way Hansi processed a rather traumatic experience and I always found them quite moving. " "I just wrote that music [for "Fiddler on the Green"] and sent it over to Hansi. The whole concept is his and it's based on a true story", Jon elaborates. "[Hansi] was out walking his dog and he saw a little boy get killed on a bicycle -- hit by a car. Well, it happened again, like a week later -- same spot, same place in his neighborhood in a place where something like that would never happen. Over in Germany, the Fiddler is like what we call the Reaper." Sounds like the Demons & Wizards album cover, wouldn't you agree? In summary, the Fiddler makes a mistake and takes this little boy's life too soon. Thusly, he promised the boy he'll create this paradise for him. The girl in this scenario would have been this little boy's future wife, so the deal is that the Fiddle makes a heaven for this pair as part of the bargain. In case you were wondering, this is Jon Schaffer's favorite track."

[@ApocGuy]

probably saddest one too.

[@peeweewallabowski7084]

Hell yeah! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 what a great band! Tons of songs you should do live with them 😍 Helloween ☆ Keeper of the seven keys next!

[@123Heitor321]

Now you should react to The Bards Song live Wacken 2011 haha

[@killerbug6215]

Valhalla typically marks the end of a BG concert, so you wont stop the crowd, they are just singing along even after the concert.

[@mtaffer]

Now you need to do Precious Jerusalem to get the other side of the coin. There are a few Blind Guardian songs that deal with the Bible. Hansi loves literature and many of his songs are based on things he has read...especially Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time. Lots of songs are based on that actually. Fly is actually about Peter Pan if you can believe that...but it's really in the abstract. Blind Guardian's live shows are amazing...full of energy and it's SO MUCH FUN! If you guys get to see them live, do it.

[@corPAzilum]

Wheel of Time is a great song.

[@michanowak7060]

Goodbye My Friend is based on E.T. yep. That family movie. that's crazy.

[@stingerjohnny9951]

This band is amazing live, saw them in 2010 in a little venue in my city. The crowd was around 500 strong and during this song we sang our hearts out, so loud we drowned out the PA. One of my best concert memories. Honestly check out The Bard song by these guys!

Hearing Blind Guardian perform Valhalla and The Bard's Song live is one of the greatest concert moments I've been to, even in the much smaller local venue where I watched them. At the time I barely knew anything about them, and didn't know any of the songs, but the positive energy in the audience and the overall feeling was just something else.
