Symphony X - The Sacrifice

[@IRONmeganDETH]

Symphony X is so amazing. This is the kind of song that makes you want to mouth out the words inspirationally, with an occasional fist in the air! (You know you do it) It gives you the feeling of being in love, yet at the same time, mourning a death... in a tasteful, tragically beautiful way. How can their music be so powerful?!

[@therestiel]

This song is about book 9 of Paradise Lost, wherein Adam realizes what Eve's done but recognizes that he can't live without her, so he eats the forbidden fruit as well to live out his punishment alongside her.

[@WasimAkram-ck2wb]

Wow. That's amazing context. Thank you

[@hassannajjar2508]

Still listening to symphony x , after 9 years of you commenting on this song?

[@randynachreiner9620]

What a way to frame the story from a Male-dominated point of view. Thanks for the context though, this is one of my favorite songs by them!

[@larsnienberg5488]

The way Russell sings this song is absolutely PERFECT, gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it.

[@keyboardwarria]

A lot of people like to compare SX with DT and for me, Russell is the clear difference. His singing is so much better (my opinion). I'm not much of a guy who pays attention to singing, but Russell is one of those exceptions where he just grabs my attention rather than me just listening to the music itself, or worse, ignore the singing (as in the case with many DT songs).

[@lilybrinez8047]

eren yeager There is absolutely no way to compare DT and SX

[@360fishingadventures8]

This whole album is a complete masterpiece.

[@NickySpanjaards]

This song has so much feeling. I almost want to cry everytime I hear it!

[@rkermentz]

One of the most beautiful songs ever. And Sir Russel Allen is a monster.

[@zedddddful]

Amazing song I love it Romeo is a master at composition and Russell's voice has gotten even better over the year's.

[@Biah1Xd1official]

Everytime I listen to this song, I cry

[@LiquidSpartan117]

I cry goosebumps

[@anaslittlestage1069]

Me too 😍

[@Biah1Xd1official]

8 years later and I still feel the same way

[@Arckra]

This song and the end of Divine Wings of Tragedy gives me chills. Damn, Sir Russ.

[@chival5486]

HOOOLLLYY SHHHIIITT ! Im proud of myself for Ioving these kind of MUSIC !!

[@Janinebignell]

I have always loved Symphony X but I especially love their sensitive music. This and Paradise Lost are my two favourite. Thank you for the upload

[@audiodrummer1]

I think that this song is the best song I've heard in my life in a sad way... Reminds me of the life I once had...

[@richardjones2811]

We only get one life, get a grip and live it.

[@mengeleto11]

The BEST Metal band and vocalist!

[@brettt777]

One of the best voices in rock, ever. Up there with Dio, James Dewar and Chris Cornell IMHO.

[@360fishingadventures8]

He sounds a lot like Dio.

[@debrabernardo6144]

most beautiful..music..ive ever heard.

[@lucasrinaldi3848]

Esse álbum é impossível, não tem uma droga de nota que não esteja no lugar perfeito, principalmente nessa música.

[@edwardlhesta7258]

Lucas Rinaldi Tens razão. E eu não tenho certeza mas acho que esse álbum é conceitual, sobre a música The Divine Wings of Tragedy. É a impressão que me passa...

[@mandibartlett8455]

Si

[@Bloodcurse218]

This song has such a special place in my heart.

[@epassamiDevon]

Pure metal gold!!! i don't believe that someone dislilked this............ lyrics are so deep. they don't talk about a human love for sure. talking about any gods you beleive in.

[@sted21]

I have never paid too much attention to this band, but damn this is amazing. What a singer!!

[@wariedz4721]

Magical with super intense lyrics. 💖💖💖

[@user-ji9ms4sw6l]

3:44 "...and night takes the morning away forever, and the daaaay...Whooooore!..."

[@MetalReaperDanielR]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how good a cover of Stargazer would be from these guys?

[@edwardlhesta7258]

It would be amazing. Dream Theater did...

[@JoBHeavyMetal]

God, I love this song!!!

[@SatanLovesMetal]

@ThePeacemaker143 When all is Lost is another great ballad from Iconoclast, and the Sacrifice is also pretty much a love song.

[@BozJust]

Maybe their best ballad...

[@gkvasha]

i'm speechless!!!!!

[@rkermentz]

Wonderful music, touching lyrics, perfect interpretation ... and still I see 4 "not liked"'s ... I wonder, I wonder, how can that be ?

[@wilkmathiu]

I think that it can even be the best song ever

[@shogun1x]

Céline Dion - To Love You More

[@trivaigibson2302]

im like it

[@InfinityDz]

This song is so sad and powerful it's a sin I love the song but I hate listening to it Thankfully I've lobotomised myself and stopped being an emotive sack of tears. All that makes sense now is Majora's Mask's Song of Healing...
