The singer Andre Matos, was also a very good pianist and also licensed orchestra conductor. He was able to speak about 7 languages and when he was doing performances abroad, he would always speak to people in their native language . This guy was a genius. He composed and wrote this song you just heard. I am Brazilian and I miss him so much. He never got rich or super famous though, even here in Brazil he was not that famous. He lived a very simple and humble life. He spent his last years in a small apartament tooking care of his grandparents and playing in small clubs to earn his living. He died only one week after he finally decided reunite with Angra again. Unfortunally it didn't happen. But he has done a lot of good stuff for us, metal lovers. There are plenty of songs by him you will love.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thank you for sharing! That is so sad for me to hear about this. He had a great energy from him that I could see just from one video. I'll have to find more footage of him.

[@leizdutra9377]

@@ThomFoolery1 He was able to reunite with Shaman though! Shaman was the band he formed after leaving Angra, with 2 more members that also were from that first Angra phase. I went to one of the reunion concerts, the one that happened in Rio.

you need to listen to this drinking a Brazilian CACHAÇA. Or even a Jack Daniels

Fun fact: He almost replaced Dickinson when he left Maiden

Greetings from Brasil! Thanks for your videos. Two sugestions: Angra's "Nova Era" (same band, another singer) and Shaman's "Fairy Tale" (Another band, same singer). Both great songs from Brazilian bands.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Obrigado! I'll check these out. 🙂🤘

[@josiahrobinson6135]

Definitely check out Shaman's Fairy Tale, the Ritualive version! It's amazing!

[@PauloHowlett]

@@ThomFoolery1 I suggest Shaman's Over Your Head

[@LucasSilva-rf5mf]

nova era is an absolute trash

[@you123ST]

another sugestion is Viper, cry from the edge. André Matos first band

[@philosophiaentis5612]

This music is one of the hardest metal songs to sing. Andre Matos is a legend. The guitar player, Kiko Loureiro, is one of the best in the world and now plays on Megadeth.

[@marcelotortorelli]

Shaman(Andre Matos) fairy tale live.

[@gccsp77]

The lead guitar of Angra is the lead Megadeth guitar since 2016. His name is Kiko Loureiro: a Brazilian gem

[@vero9177]

Worldtrip without travelling! O wow, this is the kind of music i like. Thanks to introducing to Angra. I live in Europe and love Helloween from Germany and Sonata Arctica, from Finland. Has similarities. Angra has a new fan now ♥️. Sad to read this singer has died. For sure he will always be remembered. Such a legacy his voice

[@ThomFoolery1]

Cheers Vero! Glad you liked it and I'll check out these bands you mentioned. 🙂

[@FabioFelixx]

There is a DVD that Andre (angra singer) sings along with Andi Deris look for Shaman Eagle Fly Free. This dvd is pure gold, i would suggest you to watch it entire

Kai hansen has sung with angra on the song Winds Of Destination

[@vero9177]

@@Ratovx I have read now Andre Matos' history and there it was: he has also been in Finland in Finnish Group Symfonia. And guitarist Timo was also part of Stratovarius. IIt always comes back to bands I know. And I saw another reaction video on Shaman (Fairy Tale). The performance indeed as beautiful as its name. Just unbelievable the talent of Andre Matos. Even in top 3 in contest for singer Iron Maiden. So sad he already has passed away. But lots of music from him to be savoured. Thx for your info.

Angra é simplesmente uma jóia rara brasileira. Que orgulho dessa banda com essa formação. Só cara foda!

[@fredericledoux8184]

Thanks to react to this incredible band, it's always a pleasure to see Andre Matos (the singer, unfortunately passed 2 years ago) and Kiko Loureiro (now in Megadeth). I agree with rkmansano, Nova Era from the Rebirth Tour Live is amazing, all the band was "reborn" on the stage because all the members except Kiko and Rafael, the two guitarists, were new in Angra.

[@ThomFoolery1]

Thank you for this information. Sad to hear about the singer! I really enjoyed his voice. I'll have to check out that video. Cheers!

Eterno maestro! Curtindo em 2024!!

[@FabioFelixx]

You said that its seams a bit like a mix of DT and dragonforce, when Andre Matos (the singer) passed away in 2019 Herman Lee told that without Angra dragonforce would not exist. So its not a wrong comparation

[@ThomFoolery1]

Ah that's interesting! You can hear the influence for sure. Thank you for sharing this! 😄

[@lisasnyder5597]

Thanks for your reaction to this great song by Angra. Some of the members left Angra and started a great band called Shaman. You should check them out too. The lead singer Andre Matos passed away in 2019 and he was brilliant and will be forever missed.

[@MystHard]

Yes! Total Steve Perry vibes in his voice, technique and looks. I'm brazilian and always thought the same too. R.I.P Maestro!

[@felipehenriquepeixotoneto9464]

Viper was the first one to mix classical music with power metal. Listen to Theatre of Fate, it was the first band of Andre Matos, lead vocals of Angra.

[@sleeepwalk]

Love Angra, but love even more his former band Viper... Theatre of fate and A Cry from the edge are amazinhg... For up tempo music I like "You can bring me down" from Suicidal Tendencies.

[@felipecampos3045]

angra is one of the best power metal bands ever, try helloween and stratovarius if you enjoy this stile of music man

[@ThomFoolery1]

Cheers Felipe! I will check them out. 🤘

[@Ratovx]

Great reaction ! Angra's sound is way more diversified than this ''pure'' power metal, they mixed brazilian music, classical music, prog and more ! if you are interested i recommend The Shadow Hunter (studio version) and Morning star (studio version) both from the Temple of Shadows album Helloween are the pioneers of power metal but power metal can be different than this, Blind Guardian, Sonata Arctica, Rhapsody of Fire, Angra, Sabaton. all power bands with distinct sounds. Fun fact: The Japanese band Unlucky morpheus has a song in homage to Andre Matos (the singer) who passed away. its called Carry on singing to the sky

[@ThomFoolery1]

Awesome, thanks very much for the info!

[@acontadogui]

Angra is awesome!! Thank you for featuring Brazil man! I've said it already, I really enjoy your channel because you're really genuine. I subscribed when you left spinning of your chair on the High Hopes cover from Nightwish. Keep up the good work! Cheers from Brazil

Love both Angra and Viper, Matos was such a massive influence in the metal scene and and amazing vocalist and composer. If you're doing metal around the world, check out the tribute to Matos by Unlucky Morpheus - Carry on singing to the sky. It's in English unlike a lot of their stuff, seemed kinda fitting though.

Original Angra´s lineup (for this album) was the Power Metal Dream Team. All great, top notch in their fields. Andre Matos, if Born in USA, would be a global legend

Andre matos esta entre os 5 maiores cantores de metal de todos os tempos...R.I.P MAESTRO

[@irenehabes-quene2839]

I’ve just watched a cover by Tommy Johansson who not only sings the lyrics but plays all the guitar and bass parts of this same number but I decided to go watch the original and honestly Tommy’s does this cover justice. I just read and found out that the performer here Andre Matos has passed away which is sad. Tommy is also a musical genius with an amazing voice with an incredible range and can do this number perfectly, abeautiful tribute to the original.

[@dirceubernardes]

Watching Carry on live with Angra is something magical. Goosebumps from top to toe...

[@josiahrobinson6135]

Andre Matos was a musical genius and left this world far too soon! Great reaction to this song! Luis Mariutti is an EPIC bassist! Never watched your channel before, but anything Angra, Shaman, Viper, Andre Matos, Dan Vasc, Mayki Fabiani, and Jonathan Young related will pull me in every time!

Man, you look like a lot the lead singer of an amazing Doom Metal band, named Clouds.

[@brunor8s]

Once again a comment and a thumbs up even before watching. Glad you got to Angra, they've been one of my favorite bands since teenage and kinda responsible for getting me into metal. (The guy with the pink guitar is Kiko Loureiro, one the best guitarists in the world, currently playing in Megadeth) Hopefully you can also take a look at Shaman in the future, which is the band Andre Matos and some of Angra ex-members founded once they parted ways. And also hopefully your world tour reaches the band X-Japan 🤩 🇯🇵

Actually DragonForce and dream theater is a good anology since dream theater came about the same time as Angra, att less in Brazil and Lee from DragonForce already sayed Angra was a great influence for him and the entire band.
