Hello I just discovered this video! I love Avantasia so I try to comment on all the reactions to it. I'm glad to see you both like the song and band! I do believe Tobias Sammet (the first singer with the hat) was sick that night, so his voice cracks a few times. It's more obvious in the video of the song right after this one. But, he writes and composes everything for Avantasia. It's his "side project", although by now it's grow bigger than his main band Edguy (where he is the lead vocalist and songwriter). Technically, Avantasia is a one-man-band with a LOT of guests, although by now the drums, keyboards, and guitars are somewhat stable. You saw here Avantasia's most iconic song The Scarecrow, featuring Tobi (who sings in all the songs) and Jorn Lande. Jorn's the guy that comment about "the new Dio" was about. He used to be the lead singer of Masterplan and now works on his own solo project, where he actually has an album entirely made up of Dio cover songs! Jorn gets compared to Dio very often, and also David Coverdale. There are many many other guest Avantasia singers, although some do not participate in the live shows. Since you guys seem to love Nightwish you can check out the song Master Of The Pendulum which features Marco Hietala as a guest. Usually, there are about 5-6 guest vocalists who come along on tour (not always the same), not counting the backing singers who also step out to sing a song or two during the concerts. The show finales are great because everybody comes out and sings the last song together. Check out pictures of the band all holding hands in a big line across the stage at the end of a show.

Night Wish thank you for requesting this. Thanks Ruins of Sin for sharing it with us. I loved it. Both vocalists brought something great to the song. The musicians were awesome!

Tobias [The cool guy with the sunglasses] Was dealing with a head cold but still peformed the show. That's why he sounded off.

Guys thanks a lot I just found this band recently, and I like the 80's meets Metal. It is a NINE piece band with 2 women backup singers, 2 singers (the cool guy always works with different guest vocals, even worked with Marco). They are a group that needs to grow on you I think. Sorry about the AC/DC take down the copyright is being abused because they know no one in the reaction community can afford to challenge them and YT is a weak defender of their major contributors. Hey guys, Siskel and Ebert you are not, Thank Heavens (LOL)!! I love your channel not because you play the requests but because I feel like I am sitting there with you guys discussing the song and all the little tidbits that come into and out of your minds while you do the reviews. So nice to see a genuine reaction from guys that really are into music and love listening and reacting to the music. Thanks again till next time.

Hey guys to change the pace how about Band Maid the all female Japanese band that is awesome, try Domination (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp7bdqiHjbl7i7c) or if you want a LIVE song then Play (kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5bMep2rlNlkepo) these women are first class musicians and the drummer is a beast. They are the hottest thing out of Japan as far as I am concerned and that includes Babymetal!!
