CAN'T TAKE IT 😭 | Valley of the Queens Ayreon Reaction COLLAB w/

[@arjenanthonylucassen7668]

Thanks for your kind words, Elvann! I'm extremely proud of all the singers and instrumentalists involved and I'm glad you're giving them the credits that they so richly deserve :-) Thanks for making my day, please keep up the good work!

[@ElvannReacts]

Arjen! :O Thanks, I'm so honored! I really feel like those amazingly skillful singers deserve the recognition, they make amazing work, and they inspire me greatly me as a vocalist! Thanks for creating music that makes them shine so brightly! ❤️ On a bit different note, singing in Ayreon has been one of my life dreams. I'm very well aware that's not even something I'm in position to ask, but if it turns out that my work speaks to you, I would like you to know that I would be absolutely honored to get the chance to work with you one day as a vocalist or as an electric harpist. 🔥 Take care! Your music is amazing!

[@erwinamesz7642]

Anneke was pre-Floor and maybe the grandmother of metal in the Netherlands!!!!

[@Scalibq]

Yes, Anneke was frontwoman of The Gathering, one of the first female-fronted metal bands. The music of The Gathering was also an inspiration to the later symphonic metal bands such as Within Temptation and Nightwish. Floor Jansen actually lists Anneke as one of her first influences as a singer. When she heard The Gathering's song Strange Machines, with Anneke's voice, she knew that this is what she wanted to do.

[@rkempo]

I absolutely adore her and her voice, she is so nice.

[@revylokesh1783]

Calling Anneke a _"grandmother"_ is a bit frustrating though. She's an absolutely gorgeous woman.

[@erwinamesz7642]

Coco Loco just 2 months older than me. Hope my daughters keep their legs together the next years so otherwise I’m a grandfather also 😜

For Ayreon, you should react to Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down - The Source (2017) with 11 of the best metal singers on the planet in one song.

[@corneliusantonius3108]

@@pdimi3829 I third that and the new stuff

[@Kilian600]

I fourth that !!!

[@Engy_Wuck]

that might be a nice song, but I think the singers are too much "overlaid" with the instruments for most of the song. Pretty much the only exception: Michael Mills starting around 7:20 In the song reacted to here the singers are much more foreground.

[@shuriken4852]

@@Engy_Wuck Not sure we are talking about the same video, because the one with the comments from Arjen, I had absolutely no problems at all hearing what the singers were saying perfectly. To each his own I guess.

[@Engy_Wuck]

​@@shuriken4852 well, I'm not a native speaker, so that's an extra layer of problems to not only hearing but also understanding what's sung. But the problem here is not only being able to understand what is sung (i.e. the text), but also *how* it is sung. If the voice drowns in a sea of "noise" (okok, quite a few instruments played at the same time as the voice, and even louder than it) the quality of the singer becomes less and less noticable. At least for me. But maybe our host in this channel can differentiate better than me? (For my usage of "noise" above: take a spectrogram around 4:25 (Simone) and 7:25 (Michael). In the first most of the time nearly every frequency from zero to the limit is used with similar intensity, and the "voice line" is arely visible. In the latter you see the voice clearly, including all overtones for several octaves.) Notice I quite like Ayreon, and I probably will buy that album soon. But I think the voices are more in the foreground in e.g. the Universal Migrator songs. Take "2084": while the voice is accompanied by instruments it's better "distinguishable" (is that a word?) from it than most of the voices in "The Day That The World Breaks Down"

[@FallingPig]

Anneke is always infectious with her smile and humor. Wish this song was longer.

[@marceljanssens5935]

Well, get the ayreon album Ekectric Castle. Her singing is all over it

[@treintje1001]

Speaking of the most underrated singer: Marcella Bovio is her name. She has an amazing voice and her range is out of this world. She used to be the lead singer in her old band Stream Of Passion, check it out. Nowadays she sings in Mayan. She also works a lot with Ayreon and with Anneke. And she is a great violin player as well!

[@ShadowhispersBand]

The third one is Marcela Bovio from Mexico. She now lives in the Netherlands. She does a lot of vocals in Ayreon. She was the singer of Stream of Passion, that also started as a project by Ayreon's mastermind Arjen Lucassen. But the band continued after their first album as a band of their own. You should really check them out, one of my favorite symphonic metal bands. She has also some solo albums and she's a vocal teacher (and such a nice person). Right now, she's one of the 2 female vocalists of MaYaN, the second band of Mark Jansen (not related to Floor but also in After Forever with Floor at the time) and Ariën van Weesenbeek from Epica. Worth checking out. Very dense, even chaotic at a first listen, but extremely good, especially live. And Marcela sang backing vocals for another Ayreon side.-project "The Gentle Storm" feat. Anneke, but only on the live shows, not on the studio versions. She was a founding member of Anneke's band Vuur, but she left in the middle of songwriting, as it wasn't quite her style. If I remember correctly, she also appeared in MAiden united, an accoustic Iron Maiden cover / tribute band, also worth chekcing out. Right now, Marcela is working on a new album with her new project called Dark Horse White Horse.

You can find Marcella performing this song by herself in some performances (Anneke recorded it originally as a character named "The Egyptian")

[@jaapblaauw3735]

This singer is Marcela Bovio. She is an amzing singer too and joined Ayreon often. Ayreon is basically not a band but just on dutch guy, Arjan Anthony Lucassen. He is the writing all the songs and plays in the studio all instruments himself except for drums and the classical instruments. Then he invites famous vocalists from all over the globe to play/ sing a character on his albums. This is from an Ayreon show, quite rare as Ayreon hardly plays live on stage..

[@barbamamance8561]

The third singer it's Marcela Bovio. She's been part of many Arjen's or Anneke project(Ayreon, Steam of Passion, VuuR, The Gentle Storm) . Also she's in Mayan, the side project of Mark Jansen (ex- After-Forever, Epica). Lately, she fighting a cancer and, good news she's now clean. No more cancer!

@@ElvannReacts Yes, do so. Marcela is really fantastic. She is mexican, but lives in the netherlands for many years now. She was the lead singer of STEAM OF PASSION, another project of Arjen A. Lucassen (Ayreon-mastermind), where she also played some violin on stage. (They played some Ayreon stuff on tour too. Here a link to Valley of the queens - the girl on the right is Marcelas sister Diana: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3vKpZuhm92JoMU) And she was 2nd voice THE GENTLE STORM, again a project of Arjen and Anneke. As mentioned above nowadays Marcela is in MaYaN, a sideproject of Marc Jansen from Epica - great stuff, but really heavy. One male, two female singers + two male shouters/growlers.

[@T1hitsTheHighestNote]

I’m suprised Anneke didn’t do this song at Tuska. This arrangement is a bit different than the album version. There are more vocal harmonies and a lead flute, instead of a synth. The song is off of the album Into the Electric Castle. Recently Ayreon released the live performance of the entire album, recorded last year. That version is with Anneke on sole lead vocals (as on the album) and with another amazing, but different, flute performance. Marcella had choir duties on these shows, but she is a professional singer in her own right. She has solo work, bands and have done a ton on Ayreon over the years. She did the part as Wife on the album The Human Equation, and also reprised that on the live performance The Theatre Equation. You can find some of that on KZbin. The other two choir singers were Floor’s siste Irene, and Lisette van den Berg, from the band Scarlet Stories. Marcella arranged the choir vocals. I really love how every Ayreon concert is different, because it’s like once every two years, and the musicians are a bit different on every occasion.

[@mnewm21]

And the Druids Turn to Stone might be one you like from this concert as well. Damian Wilson sings it perfectly I think and it is also a very atmospheric piece.

Three of the band members were in Creed and I was a huge fan of them, so when they broke up in 2003 I was quite sad about it. However, in hindsight I'm extremely happy, because a year later Myles joined as lead singer and they started making awesome music. They're one of my favorite bands till this day. Poets of the Fall is another favorite of mine. They're big in Finland, but even in The Netherlands where I live they're quite unknown, usually performing for about 600 or so people. They're truly amazing though, one of the very few band where I can't name a song I dislike even if I tried. I'm lucky enough to have seen AB three times and POTF five times live so far, and they're absolutely amazing live. Their lead singers are some of the very best rock singers out there currently, definitely worth the listen. :)

Same song, solo only Marcela Bovio (the 3rd lady 😜) live in a living room (2018), and keyboards: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5PcY35uaM1nqrM And if you like the Prog.music of Ayreon: The Source is the 9th studio album from Ayreon, a progressive metal/rock opera project by Dutch musician Arjen Anthony Lucassen, released on April 28, 2017. ‘The Day That The World Breaks Down’ is a song that features all 11 (well known) main guest singers (incl. James Labrie, Tommy Karevik, Russel Allen, Floor Jansen, Simone Simons and 6 more) and is taken from that album. Arjen himself is telling (in subtitles) who the singers are and which instrument are used and by what standards. Btw. The clip is 13 min. Long and I think you won’t regret it !! Official (Arjen’s) clip: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXfYfn6ap9-Dp7c

I would classify Floor as a Dramatic soprano,if she can even be classified!!

Hello, you may have seen/heard it already but if not "Epica accoustic pinkpop 2014" (one of their accoustics), and if you want to do Epica in general i wouldn't mind :p. Best regards.

Marcella is probably the most underrated artist on that stage. People freak out when they see the two legends Anneke and Floor but as a vocalist Marcela is up there with them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n33CgWmMd699fpY
