[@Ann-qk8rw]

I think this song is a true reflection of the artist that is Dan Vasc. He can sing anything but I think that metal is his true passion. Epic is an understatement. Victor is amazing.

[@VikingReacts]

Metal must be his passion... it shows so much :)

[@emppu87]

Metal is his passion, especially power metal

[@deniseduncan7363]

So appreciate your enthusiasm and appreciation. It's always a good day when new music hits!

[@kristinabassi4215]

Dan and Victor definitely killed this song. Powerful par excellence. PS: your reactions to Dan Vasc are so spot on and honest 🤘♥️

[@shieldmaiden83]

Dan and Victor do this Iron Maiden hit justice!! It’s legendary!! Can’t wait to see your reaction!!

[@krystalrobin3164]

I felt that wail down to my toes!

[@CKenyon58]

Dan Vasc is one of the best male vocalist on youtube.

[@valerialopesdesouza8357]

Dannn/ Victor is Awesome 😊😊😊😊

[@andreadee1567]

Thanks, Sir Goesbackalot. You made that scream nearly one minute long. Epic. 😅

[@VikingReacts]

should have done a 4th run :P

[@carmelitanobre8737]

I was waiting for your reaction to this epic cover by Dan Vasc. He just slayed💯. Dan is a beast of a singer and Victor nailed it. Beardo did a good intro.The whole production was flawless.I totally agree with you when you say that everything this guy touches turns into Gold. That was insane,fierce and phenomenal. He's always raising the bar. I loved you reaction to this video. Thanks a lot.

[@MaryFaili-xz4lx]

I think it's because he pays attention to the details. There's not one area where he did too much, or too little. The singing is perfect, the music production is perfect, the lighting, the photography, and on down the line. He's really amazing.

[@marlusmazer9799]

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!❤ 3:10

[@mamalinhager]

❤ lots of guys have a "man crush" on Dan... we lady's .... just.... wow wow wow His is fantastic... owns every song he sings. Smart, talented, so good looking... voice, performance... out of this world. Love your review... as always. Thank you.... glad you love him too!!!! Oh... and can't ignore that fantastic guitar Another Wow!!!!!

[@terryeallen-stoda2152]

I'm breathless from this EPIC cover by Dan Vasc! His style and vocals are awesome as usual, but the production....wow! And of course the phenomenal guitar work of Victor just is so good! ......btw, Dan Vasc has that love effect on many people 😊 you are not alone❤

[@lisalaursen3684]

Yes if I were I guy I’d probably have a bromance with Dan too. What’s not to love?!?

[@user-si8yc2yq6v]

He’s a genius! When I heard this I thought of you! Im so glad you like it. Dan does all of this himself! Again genius! I love your reaction, I knew I would.

[@PHOEN1X1986]

Dan is just pure GOLD! Effing amazingly versatile voice and his "acting" / poses are always spot on! Victor is just a guitar GOD! 👏👌

[@Pammie1221]

I believe that we are witnessing an evolution. I think he's comfortable enough now to show more of what's been inside of him. He always has said how much he loves Power Metal. And WOW this performance delivered. I wonder what's next now that the beast is unleashed. Your reaction to him is so genuine. Vascnation totally gets it.❤

[@auntiethetical]

I think this does represent an evolution for Vasc. He has placed the emphasis squarely on the music rather than on himself. Black and white, no face closeups that aren’t obscured by shadows, he’s moving in the right direction as far as metal is concerned.

[@Pammie1221]

@@auntiethetical Great observation.

[@Laurgal5]

Vasc Nation! 💪

[@AlexandreOswald]

Dan Vasc is a great experimenter, as a fan of games, he even did a metal cover of the song Dame Da Ne (Baka Mitai) singing in Japanese, soundtrack to the game Yakuza.

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Yes! I was just watching that one the other day. WOW! 😀

[@corrielaas2806]

Thank you very much for this joyful reaction😂 I enjoy it so much when you go back and go back and go back again!!!❤❤Dan and Victor are phenomenal!!!❤❤❤

I am here, as always, for Sir Goesbackalot! Hail! 🤘 I really enjoy your enthusiasm, especially for our favorite Brazilian, Dirty Dan 😎😂

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Same here! 😀

[@jrstoltenberg2050]

The narrative in the beginning was done by Beardo from Geeks and Gamers

[@sandycox2058]

I have been waiting for your reaction to this and was not disappointed! I watched your reaction twice and smiled all the way through both times. The scream....the hair flips....Victor....etc.! I have seen thousands of videos over the decades. I have to say this surpassed many of the high dollar productions by other artists. In the credits of the original video, it lists Dan as director and editor of the video. He is a man of many talents. The simplicity of it made it even more AWESOME. (I think shampoo/conditioner companies are missing out on using his hair flips as advertising for their products. LOL) Dan has said he is working on a tribute album to Manowar.

[@nancarpowits6011]

I don't know if you have reacted to Black Wind, Fire and Steel, but if you liked this scream you need to listen to the scream in this song.

[@stacysteele6262]

The scream in that song is AMAZING!

[@jamesleasure8836]

If Bruce ever can't tour, God forbid, Dan can step right up and the Maiden wouldn't miss a beat. Dan is the BEST. A constant joy of discovery.

[@FloLvsDogs]

Watching Dan and Victor ... always a pleasure. Seeing you enjoy watching Dan and Victor ...ditto.

[@rose-hk5pm]

Great reaction of Dan's video. It was more epic because it was done in black and white

[@grandy2875]

G'day Viking, Daniel has well and truly outdone himself!!! This video, again, shows just how Dan's mind can work. To come up with the concept for the visual effect of the videos, and to then execute them, in a suburban garage, and previous to that, a 10×12 (?) spare bedroom, is phenomenal. Each video has a mood and atmosphere different from each other... this man is incredible... his physical presence onscreen is always a joy to behold. This offering is no different in that respect. It is brilliant and exactly what I have come to expect from Dan Vasc,,, the unexpected... I would love to see how his concept boards come together... This video is a Tour de Force for everything Dan has said he loves about the work he does for his music. He deserves every accolade and all the love and respect that comes his way. He is JUST... SOOOO... GOOD... I've lost count of how many times I've watched it but I'm not gonna stop,,, it's too good. I'm a very happy devotee of the man and his musical journey. 😁❣️ 🙃🐨🇦🇺

[@Laurgal5]

Love your review! My thoughts also!

[@margijohnson5728]

Outstanding performance!!❤❤ Dan is phenomenal. Big "ups" to Victor as well! Missed you Viking and thank you for your great reaction 😘

Hi Viking, that was epic in so many ways. Dan put up a jaw dropping performance. Love it. It is always fun to see your reaction😊

Viking, I've been waiting for your reaction! I knew you would go nuts. I'm not disappointed! Hugs!

[@janeteitsworth8824]

Loved your reaction. Dan Vasc is truly epic and deserves all the recognition. Victor the guitar nerd needs to join Dan Vasc permanently in my opinion.

[@satyasunshine9737]

Agree!!!!😀🎵🎶🔮🥰🌟💖

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Made my day! I'm content! Must get back to folding laundry and doing dishes, etc., etc., etc. Later, everyone (joyful smiles still occurring)!

[@lisalaursen3684]

Dan has the most epic metal scream I’ve ever heard. I love the new formatting with sepia tones, smoke, eerie lighting and silhouettes. Just when I think Dan couldn’t get any better he does. 🔥🤘

[@annlandry5252]

You happy thats great Dan is damn awesome Victor is jamming and that was Beardo did the intro Peace out my friend ❤

[@JoanFrayer-kh6ez]

Dan is AMAZING and Victor is AMAZING too!!! All I can say is WOW!!

They did indeed! I keep watching the video today. So much fun. And to have someone call themselves a fan... that takes some getting used to I guess ;). Thank you for the kind words and a hug back from the Netherlands!

Loved that. Thanks! PEACES!!!

[@triciamiller6447]

Love your reactions! Amazing! 10 hair flips, I believe

[@andreas_hs]

Dan's voice is just so epic in whatever he sings. But when he sings Metal, he is beyond epic ... And this awesome guitar play by Victor ... Was sooo looking forward for your reaction to this beyond epic production that blows me away no matter how often I watch it ... Keep being your true self Viking!

[@umarae27]

Made my day you did. ❤️

@@margijohnson5728 Thanks, you too! 😀

[@carolhall3565]

A superlative performance from Dan and Victor on this excellent cover. The video perfectly compliments the song and presents Dan as a visionary artist of the highest order. Thanks so much for sharing your reaction and can’t wait to see what your next choice will be. 🎶🌟🎶

[@TheAnnestube]

I was wondering what had happened to you, since we didn't see you reacting to this right off the bat as soon as it hit the channel. Dan has definitely grown a lot stronger (if that was even possible) vocally, physically, and artistically, and it's a thrill to witness the evolution of a legend.

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Not too surprising, since he turned 34 on October 13 (2023). 😀

[@bluejeans9526]

LOL! As soon as I heard those growls when I first listened to it, I couldn't wait until you did a reaction. I just love it when you giggle like a school girl. Haha Dan and Victor did an amazing job with this cover. You don't hold back in your reactions. Love it.

[@yascaraalbuquerque512]

The genial production! The harmony between them! SO MUCH strength and power!! And Victor shining!!! What... I don't know! Hypnotic? Everything is superlative... My heart still beats in my throat, not knowing how to return to its place... And Daniel’s vocal: Fantastic, perfect and much better than the original (purists, forgive me!). Much denser, heavier... dark, strong, "dirty"... All that fine "sand" running down the edges of the notes! What was that "descending spiral curve" of sound in the scream?? It looked like a condemned soul falling into the Abyss!😮 Gentlemen, we see here a full Rockstar - in all his splendor! Cover? No, my dears... this song is HIS! Thank you for your reaction! Hugs from Curitiba - Brazil. 🇧🇷

[@wyerenthbludragon7549]

Dan Vasc is the vocalist that I compare all others to. He has such depth of technical perfection paired with dramatic delivery. Love to see reactions such as yours!

[@josiahrobinson6135]

Another EPIC and absolutely amazing reaction from you!

[@MalgorzataTarkowska-wy1xn]

Epic cover 👍OMG 😅

[@raskalkat9092]

Nice summary - 'Dan good. I like very much.' An artist with an idea they want to bring to life is a formidable force. We will say what we want to say, how we want to say it. No exceptions! Hail Vasc-Nation ❤️🤘✝️

[@janv6075]

Glad to see you back Viking, was getting concerned about you. Love your reactions!!! I don't mind the "going back" because I do it all the time when I watch Dan's videos. Great video and Victor is awesome too! As far as making an exception.........the line is probably very long! LOL :-)

[@Lydelith]

Dan had already announced that he wants to make only the music he loves most, which happens to be Heavy Metal. I see a new level of seriousness in what he's doing. I first noticed it when Confessori's channel released "CONFESSORI ft DAN VASC - Where the Eagles Fly (Official Music Video)." Back then, I was a bit concerned about how Dan was doing. But now, I'm very confident that he will continue on this fantastic new path.

[@bluejeans9526]

Do you mind telling why you were concerned with Dan? I try to find and read your comments. I have learned quite a bit about Dan and his music and videos just from reading them. I thank you for that.

[@Lydelith]

Dan had completely changed his behavior during the rendition of "Where the Eagles Fly" in comparison to his former renditions of other songs, and I tried to understand the meaning of the song's lyrics in this context. It looked like the fun was over. But now, I know that this marked the beginning of a new era in Dan's career as an outstanding singer and performer. @@bluejeans9526

[@tjw1972]

Yeah, we get your point ... "Dan's good"! This video absolutely did this song justice in every way. I can't wait to hear/see/feel the new original Fearless music coming as well as the Manowar tribute album! Please, Dan, release them like yesterday!! Love your reactions, Viking!!

[@karenmurphy6028]

You may have already seen this info since I've posted it several times so please forgive me if I'm repeating myself. A recent post by a sound/recording engineer discussing putting final touches on Fearless music suggests that a new epic tale will be dropping soon. Nothing more definitive at present but since Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom has been out for some time I would recommend keeping an eye on Dan's sites so you know the minute it drops. Personally, I'll be haunting all of Dan's sites multiple times a day and waiting impatiently. 😉

Don’t know if you saw Dans teasers on Utube but they were fun! Now to comment… I listened to this on Halloween night shortly after it dropped and was absolutely speechless! I couldn’t breathe from sheer excitement of what Dan and Victor created for us! Words would not come, so on 11/1 I finally was able to express my thoughts. This was beyond magnificent in vocals, theatrics, musicality, raw expression, and very much worth the wait for this outstanding incredible cover. Victor was/is a master of his craft! He and Dan masterfully created the latest gift from their souls and hearts and essense of spirit! With all that is going on in our world right now, this is a song to think about, and give pause to the message in it! We need to stand up and take notice of what is going on in our world and pray for its safety and protection of human life. Thank you Dan, Victor, and all who were a part of this incredible creation and journey!!! 🧡🧔🏻‍♀️💪🏼🧔🏻‍♀️💪🏼🫡🤘🏼🙏🏼

Victor does show his face elsewhere but not doing so in his videos with Dan has apparently become an inside joke that will continue. Victor wanted the focus to be on the guitars and his playing, not on him, though I think I read in another post that he's somewhat shy.
