Tanz der Vampire - Carpe Noctem (English with Lyrics)

[@ArgentAirways]

Me Before Listening: "... Meh." After: ... **BUSTS DOWN THE HOUSE'S MAIN DOOR AND DANCES DOWN THE STREET**

[@WerewolfStory]

*sigh* this song is so beautiful and powerful, its like heaven in 8 minutes and 18 seconds. thanks for uploading.

[@Whisper_292]

If I didn't know Jim Steinman had written it, I would suspect it. Beautiful work.

[@TeamVampireHunterD]

OH THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS!!! I have been trying to find this song for almost 5 years now and just found it today, it's been haunting me.

[@MsKnubbl]

Wow, I've never heard that in English. I loooooove that song in German :D

[@DinoLover4242]

I liked a bit of both. ^^

[@juliah771]

Having listened to this song in German for years, it's hard to listen to it in English actually. It's rare I prefare a german version :D

[@stagegirl525]

if only they had these vocals and english lyrics with the german choreography . it would then be perfect :)

[@jasminnemcdonald94A]

I would love to see that.

[@amintajuliette]

I like this version to much, but my favorite is the german with tho original wien cast! It's morover a so intense song...it's great in every language! I love this song! Thank you verry much for post it! It was wonderful!

[@Tutter18091988]

He's singer, songwriter, producer and everything inbetween, he's worked with the likes of Bonnie Tyler and Justin Timberlake. His name is Kyle Gordon Or Kyle "Scarpia" Gordon to be on professional terms.

[@WerewolfStory]

this singer is amazing!!! I love him :D

[@paweeitelthaler7141]

WerewolfStory, could you send the link for Polish HQ version?

[@jasminnemcdonald94A]

I just watched the original German version of Dance of the Vampire yesterday (January 8, 2021). I believe the Broadway version should have used the original German version instead for English speaking audiences.

[@StarKillerLucas]

Thanx for posting this. it's an amazing song

[@SuperHousePodcast]

Rumor has it that this song was originally written for a submission for the Batman Forever soundtrack. The lyrics, "In the shadows of the city, a hero's waiting for the call..." definitely sounds more fitting for Batman than for The Fearless Vampire Killers. The composer, Jim Steinman, almost made a Batman musical. We did a deep dive into how it could've been made on our podcast, as well as featured a snippet of "Carpe Noctem": kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5LIfYmJhKZ0mqc

BS, they are singing about Krolock...watch the musical.

[@scottmemelord6130]

@@n1mand *Jim Steinman was supposed to work on the Batman musical* *Is known to recycle his music all the time* It's not that big of a stretch to make. Probably figured "You know that song I wrote for Batman? Let's just use it here instead. No point in letting it go to waste."

[@joshuaplotkin8826]

this would be perfect for someone to make a Vampire Knight music video. I wish I knew how to make one.

[@dutchessgirl13]

And I used to think that learning Latin wouldn't help my musical viewing!

[@bentanat]

actually, I'm not believing, that I'm saying this: the best carpe noctem ever is the hungarian!!! has more POWER in it, more SPIRIT or I don't know, but that's the case. still like the english version too, but... :)

[@Cathy158]

That's soo beautiful! :) I saw that musical 10 years ago and it's still great! :* But where can I download that song?

[@NeoSocky]

Look for the polish version - the best IMO ^^

[@Maeghuanwen]

@BlackenedSoul93 something like "Day of anger, master, set me free, master" kyrie is another word for lord (god) and domine the usual word for master in latin. hope that helped... ;-)

[@audiesgirl]

@DeemBrittyGirl The German version is amazing theater, but like German beer, too dark/heavy for American taste. Even Hal Prince has said some shows that work in Europe or NY won't "play in Peoria" or sell CDs/DVDs where the real money is made. If they'd just set to music the movie's tongue-in-cheek treatment rather than do an all out English-style farce, it would have succeeded. I blame the producers for allowing this to be lost in translation and Crawford's manager for letting him do it.

[@XOXOAceyOXOX]

What is the singers name in this version?? I cannot find credits of his name anywhere- He is amazing- I would love to hear more of his vocals....

[@januskayajatrus8159]

Kyle "Scarpia" Gordon

[@wickedfeylady]

I wish it ended at 7:52. The slow part is the best part. It don't like how it gets fast again.

[@DayoKid]

3:37 Damit bin ich nicht einverstanden, wo ist dieser geile hohe Ton? >.>

[@BlackenedSoul93]

wat does "Dies irae, Kyrie. Libera me, Domine ! Dies irae, Kyrie. Requiem da, Domine !" mean?

[@justmewood8818]

Latin to English translation: This day, Gloria. Free me, Master ! This day, Gloria. Give rest, O Lord! This day, Gloria. Free me, Master ! This day, Gloria. Give rest, O Lord!

[@tedsunnerton9801]

@@justmewood8818 "Dies irae" is generally translated as "Day of Wrath", but yes on the rest.

[@joshuaplotkin8826]

If Meatloaf did the song, why not let him do it for the show? He did a single song for Rocky Horror.

[@leonkennedy7638]

Steinmann wrote it

[@DinoLover4242]

Who the heck is Steinmann?

[@leonkennedy7638]

The man who wrote the songs for this musical and for people like Bonny Tyler and MeatLoaf

[@StrangeDarkSoul]

I LOVE the english songs! *___*

[@openwatermetal]

Check out that song performed by Meat Loaf, he recorded it with the same title on his album "The Monster Is Loose". I prefer his version to this one!

[@doppelsnet]

+Karin Fechner Meat is a beast when he sings Steinman stuff.

[@DinoLover4242]

That song sounds interesting. ^^

[@doppelsnet]

Steinman fucking kicks ass :-)

@Sweeneysgirlyyy Latin does have a rather impressive sound to it doesn't it?

Who's the singer? PLSSSS answer?

[@tenshialpha]

This is a fellow called Kyle Gordon. If you find the "Metal Philharmonic" version (or the "Scarpia" version) of "A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste", that's him too.

[@ravenstar100]

can someone please tell me who the male singer is? im going batshit trying to find him in the other songs and cant!! thank you.

[@wickedwanton7934]

+ravenstar100 He works under the name "Scarpia" last I heard. Steinman sometimes uses him for demos. He sang on the demo for "A Kiss is a Terrible Thing to Waste"; best version I've ever heard.

I love all the languages and the russian language too (I learned russian almost 1 year. But the russian grammatik is very difficult). I can speak the german language fluently and was a lot of times in Germany. But I still never have seen the german musical (Tanz der Vampire) over there. lol!

Ahhh....the english version sucks! Steve Barton is and will always be the best Krolock there ever was! No comparison with the german recording!

[@joshuaplotkin8826]

Unfortunately, I do not speak German.

[@openwatermetal]

I agree Steve Barton was the best Krolock ever, but this song isn´t sung by Krolock but by other vampires of the ensemble incl. Magda turned vampire. The German recording with Maté Kamaras as main male vocal is fantastic!

[@DinoLover4242]

Then try to learn to speak German if you don't know. XD

[@Winterhe4rt]

this song isnt even sung by Krolock, smartass. lol

[@DeemBrittyGirl]

Face it. There are some things that Europeans can do better than Americans...this is one of those things. American version of the play sucks..:(
