Epica - Cry For The Moon (Studio Version)

[@relaxingthesoulmind1879]

One of the best song's by Epica

[@DurgerDude]

I'll gladly suggest an Epica song. How about Unleashed? :)

[@CaroleRlyeh]

Unleashed!!!!!! please please please. I really think this song will blow your mind. The music , Simone voice, the lyrics, the choir ... even the story of the music video is beautiful.

[@fnglert]

Still waiting for Essence of Silence (live). :D But happy you're paying attention to Epica at all :D You've reacted to some of Epica's lightest songs so far. Time for something heavier!

[@dannydane8144]

up

[@poisong1rI]

also agreeing with anything more Epica!! :D

[@jeane.3083]

I totally agree, especially with Essence of Silence or Victims of Contingency.

[@poisong1rI]

Uppppppp

[@GaboObando]

love me some EPICA!

[@nemo6666]

Epica is amazing✌️🤘🤘🙌

[@Ubermonk01]

From Epica I would highly recommend: - Kingdom of Heaven ... the semi live one.... its a live overdubbed one but omg its face meltingly heavy - Essense of Silence .... the official live version is best... this one will pretty much give you a primer on later Epica... as will The Obsessive Devotion (official live) - In All Conscience .... this one is a personal favourite... one of their best tbh... it was a bonus track on one of their limited edition albums and doesnt get get nearly enough love. - Cry for the Moon.... off thir first album... to see where they started off from. This should get yer started

[@restrepo699]

I just LOVE your reaction videos!! My Favorite from Epica is Chasing the Dragon, Obsessive Devotion and Tides of Time. ❤❤

[@sirlaughalotlewis]

Yes for chasing the dragon

[@danndali7]

Yeaaaah muchas gracias!! More Epica please 💓 Saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪

[@ellenhunt8767]

We don't have a lot of it here in the U.S. because this kind of music is poetic and really technical. If you don't have ridiculous talent like this, it's gonna take major training, either self or through a teacher, which costs money and takes a lot of time. The main labels want a lot of music out quick, so they slap a cute face behind a catchy chorus, (and that's not to say there's not good modern stars, I'm just describing the average. ) and prefer making money that way, whereas people like Epica have a passion for it, and they make their money because it shows. Things are changing slowly but surely thanks to Patreon. :) Might still be a while before we get anything close to the actual genre, and it will still probably not be main stream, but it's coming.

[@kntryreb3581]

My favorite song by epica🤘

[@TheCaesar666]

Dude! Please react to Epica - Unleashed (Official live)

[@TheCaesar666]

@@MrRockNRollLive you will not regret it!

[@khosani1726]

Unleashed is great because it was the first time Epica said, "yeah we don't do commercial singles anymore, so here's what you're getting." Such a return to what makes them great after the failure that was Never Enough.

[@ВиталийПрайс]

Beyond the matrix is very good song of Epica

[@timhutchinson8485]

For a few more Dutch female metal singers, I recommend Diane Van Giersbergen from Xandria (and Ex Libris) and Charlotte Wessels from Delain.

[@waleedsmz]

Always great to see Dianne Van Giersbergen in recommendations

[@MatthewP-Gr]

Yes they can! Awesome song. Well done Mr! Cheers

[@handibenkz4091]

Yes keep on going with another Epica, there are still alot more from them to explore their music.

This is my 2nd Favorite song from Epica,1st one is Resign to Surrender, you should listen to that brother! Also on my country at Costa Rica, November 3rd, is going to be a concert, by Epica, can't wait to see them live!

[@ynahatokoro4626]

React to Epica Universal death squad (Official lyric video)

You should react to Design Your Universe or Kingdom of heaven, their masterpieces.

Live, from Retrospect.

Yeeeeeah, more Epica! \m/

I am sooo beyond happy that you enjoyed this! yesss! You should react to Unleashed (music video)

[@fountainPoison]

I loved the Venom movie too!! And yeah, this music video is definitely reminding me of it now lol

[@mangalover0149]

One of my favourite Epica songs. ❤️

[@FemaleMetalLover]

I would be very interested to see you react to Septicfelsh - Portrait of a Headless Man. Atmospheric Death Symphonic metal from Greece, fronted by the two brothers Seth and Cristos, in my opinion, two of the most artistic metal writers today, think of it as a demonic and death-metal version of Tuomas Holopanien

[@NeeceLoneWolf]

Victims of Contingency my ringtone

[@ricksix3119]

OK, Mr. Rock n Roll, Delain, Masters of Destiny. Miss Wessells Will Empress YOU! Please Do This One.

[@migueltoledo9875]

So glad to see you reacting to Epica again :) The next ones should be from the Retrospect show, the same where they played Stabat Matter Dolorosa and Sancta Terra. Live shows are the best for reaction videos, and Retrospect is a huge one! Remember that full orchestra and choir! And by the way, the correct pronounciation of her name is "See-mo-neh" (in her own words).

[@vaillancourt99]

Epica - Kingdom of Heaven (live) for your next Epica reaction please! One of the many reasons I like Epica so much is because the lyrics are always meaningful. Songs like Fools of Damnation is an example but pretty much every song has a meaning.

[@nemo6666]

Exar Kun Agree 🙌🙌🙌

[@ginnydileo5168]

Nobody ever suggests Unchain Utopia, official live video. That should be your next Epica reaction.

[@Aleksizx]

Sons of winter and stars by wintersun please... You wont regret.

[@stevefromlondon4949]

Design Your Universe, Serenade of Self Destruction, The Essence of Silence, Universal Death Squad. You’re welcome! Oh, and WINTERSUN!!!!

[@imcherylynn]

You're pretty much right about the song meaning. Glad to see ya come back to Epica. They are my favorite band, so I am biased and will always click when I see the name pop up.

[@detailed_data4PSN]

Epic Epica lol, 🤘I love the chorus of this song it's catchy. I'm glad you did this song man. I agree this type of music needs to be more recognized here in America instead the crappy hip hop, rap, and pop. You should react to Epica Kingdom of Heaven it's an epic song you won't be dissapointed.

[@paolaramirez5077]

I suggest Cry for the moon - Epica ☺

[@ChantalLalonde]

So we have Tuesday and Thursday for Nightwish. How about Monday and Wednesday for Epica. That would be amazing!!!

[@AnthroFiend]

I would find Simone's voice coming out of Venom more disturbing than anything Marvel could think of. Awesome reaction dude! And I definitely agree, Symphonic Metal ought to be MUCH bigger here in the States. I highly recommend Edge of the Blade by Epica!

Sacrimony Kamelot Simone's hubby is their keyboardist and the best 1 movement low power stance ever in a video plus Elize Ryd and Alissa White Gluz

[@codydrummer]

When I showed Epica to a friend of mine he said "its like she's trying to sing you to sleep while the band makes sure you stay awake" and thats the best description I've heard of Epica

[@krytoderp6920]

Do Epica - Cry For The Moon

[@Mathsgri]

React to Epica - Kingdom of Heaven (live)

[@poisong1rI]

I asked the same question: Why are bands like these not bigger in the states?? Well I decided the location was the problem and moved to The Netherlands :P Now Im surrounded by Dutch influences such as the ones you already know Floor and Simone (even though I think they live in Sweden and Germany now but they're still Dutch) plus Charlotte Wessels, Sharon Den Adel, Dianne Van Giersbergen, Anneke Van Giersbergen...... There's gotta be something in the water here haha :)

[@lonelywind3511]

He should really listen to all of the ones you listed now that he has started down the rabbit hole.... As a start

[@parrotheadlasvegas]

This one spoke to me in some really dark times and helped me through them. Thank you for highlighting it!!! You really should check out Design Your Universe and Chasing the Dragon from their Retrospect show 😁 You’ll be on the floor for sure 😉

[@tiffanymendoza9523]

This song is one of my all time favorites. Nice hat, btw. I was born and raised in Arkansas!

[@JKCWvids]

Please do Epica Live Chasing the Dragon. That is where you really really get to see Simone sing.

[@amin0689]

Epica_ the essence of silence( official live video)

[@rjfenix22]

I love Epica and yes Simone is married. To the keyboardist of Kamelot no doubt. The Haunting by Kamelot has her in it and is beautiful.

Simone does one of her highest belting notes in House on a Hill (by Kamelot) and I think you'd definitely enjoy that. Or her windmilling in The Haunting (Oslo, 2005)

7:00 That moment when you think: How can music get more exciting than it already was?

More specifically on the eluveitie "quoth the raven " the video labeled recording the"quoth the raven" it's shot in black and white when they were in their studio

[@feadinthalion1535]

You should definitley react ot Kingdom of Heaven, that is a true masterpiece ;) More great Songs: Unleashed, Dancing in a Hurricane, Chasing the Dragon, Martyr of the free Word, Beyond the Matrix, ...

[@mannistef]

One of the best Epica songs is "Universal death squad" and sadly not much reacted to. They have a nice official video and who does not want to hear a song about apocalyptic robot legions?

[@MikeSmith-vy9zq]

I will always suggest more Epica. But man I have to recommend checking out the other singers from Beste Zangers singing to Floor in her episode. Gotta go with Rolf Sanchez doing Hotel California, Henk Poort doing The Sound of Silence, and Most of all Emma Heesters covering Floors own song Strong. All are great but man Seeing Floor get emotional at Emma's cover of Strong is heart melting. Check em out bro.

Epica ''KINGDOM of HEAVEN''' live in Mexico a 13 minute epic song

[@MountainMetal]

More. Live. Epica.

[@SevenSecondsArise]

The 10th anniversary to their album Design Your Universe(Gold Edition)-Epica is coming out October 4th. They released a lyrics video to their 13 minute song "Kingdom Of Heaven". I think that would be an amazing video for you to react to. I think you should let your brother react to some of the songs. Maybe even that one. :)

[@zunrael1553]

If you want something really beautiful from Epica you can try Canvas of Life. It's not really metal or heavy though, so maybe on your own time? :D

[@professorkittyhawk]

Just started watching your videos. Always a joy watching people's reactions to awesome, wonderful music like Epica and Nightwish. I have a suggestion for another Symphonic metal band I feel gets grossly overlooked though. Like Nightwish and Xandria, it's gone through a singer change which has changed it's sound a bit, but still managed to come through the transition with aplomb. The band in question is Amberian Dawn. You should check out their video for their song Dragonflies, which is just as epic and beautiful as something from Nightwish or Epica. And maybe check out some of their other songs as well, especially with their original singer, Heidi Parviainen. She had more of a operatic style voice than the current singer, Capri, but was just as awesome. A good song from her era with the band would be River of Tuoni. And Heidi also has a new project she calls Dark Sarah. It blends a lot of elements of storytelling along with music. Check out her video for Memories Fall and/or Dance with the Dragon. Both excellent songs/videos.

Epica is great! And please, I'd love you to react Winter by Oceans of Slumber. They're awesome! You won't regret, I promise.

[@NaomiTalita]

Lacuna Coil!

[@NewAeonWarlord]

nice one! :) Here are some of my suggestions again: - Crucified Barbara - "Rock me like the devil" or "I sell my kids for Rock'N'Roll" or "The Crucifier". You love hardrock and you love ladies palying it? You'll love this! - Huntress - "Eight of Swords", "Zenith" or "Sorrow" because how many other times will you be able to see a pagan witch with a great voice, classical vocal training and a love for metal? Not much anymore because unfortunately vocalist (and heart) of the band Jill Janus sadly took her own live last year... She still left us with some really cool music worth checking out though! That voice can get pretty insane. - Arch Enemy - "Nemesis" or "Ravenous", both live in Tokyo 2008 with Angela Gossow on vocals. But please be save and wear some form of protection against demonic possession! - Bloodywood - "Ari Ari" because they are a great and unique up and coming metalband from India and totally deserve all the additional attention they can get! They mix great metal with traditional Indian instruments, rap, a powerful message and a lot of fun. It's just great! :) - Gamma Ray - "Armageddon" or "Anywhere in the Galaxy" or... just anything from them as you love great, upliftig powermetal! These guys are the German legends of this exact genre!

[@AM-iu7yu]

Also, their Fear Factory cover of Replica is fucking bad ass dude!

[@jamescurfman3284]

There's a constant struggle between light and dark (order and chaos, good and evil, however you want to put it); every day, everybody is tempted in some way, maybe several ways at once. Some fall to one or more of those temptations. After some SERIOUS struggle (possibly with help from friends), some who have fallen can finally overcome the darkness. few of them are able to forgive themselves (even if they never forget the person or thing that tempted them in the first place). Not everybody survives this struggle, which is sad.

[@azheda]

You should react to Rage of Light - fallen or Wintersun - sons of winter and stars, you'll not regret

[@mrheadrick]

I enjoyed the Venom movie. This song too.
