Epica - The Obsessive Devotion

[yuri5178]

lol Muito foda \,,/__

[HeadmasterPrime5]

@DreadedLeopard I already know of them they're pretty cool too.

[HeadmasterPrime5]

I found another symphonic metal band besides Nightwish. Finally. I knew something was missing in my musical taste. It is another step to completion.

[DreadedLeopard]

@HeadmasterPrime5

I also recommend Within Temptation. 

[TajemnaTemnota]

@DreadedLeopard WT is fuck!

[ThinkDeepThoughts]

@HeadmasterPrime5 Kamelot isn't half-bad either, heard them? Some songs are a bit hit-and-miss, but they do have awesome awesome stuff, and Simone's done songs with them too!

[MyLuanabrasil]

Muito fodásticcaaa

[xioxio1000]

I found this song on last fm on xbox live and i have to say i've never heard of epica until then but DAMN i love this song =) Anyone got suggestion to more songs like these?

[emomusicprincess]

Generic. I am unimpressed.

[xioxio1000]

@emomusicprincess What you meen? about the song? because if so i love this song

[MyLuanabrasil]

uma chibiu

[sharp3199]

Epica is not epic.....epic is fucking EPICA...

Epica 4ever \m/-_-\m/

[MrHokaa]

Awesome



[AcervusMusic]

I got this album from emusic a few years ago but this version seems much longer than the album version I heard.

[AriaNycyus]

Epic is EPIC, goede keus van naam voor de band gekozen Simone :D

[Wubblez10]

I love the playlist youtube made for Epica, but one thing that kills my mood while im listening to their beautiful music are these dumb advertisments before i listen to the song -____________-

[clyneandras]

@Wubblez10 Ugh, no kidding. As if we don't get enough annoying ads on TV.

[Ginzaz]

their best album!!!!

[SuomenSirkku]

Don't you think that you can lie to me

[o0XxShimmyxX0o]

3:42 - 4:20 f**king epic!

[benomuso]

saying simone is flawless is an understatement

[asylumman123]

will someone point me in the direction for another epica song like this thanks

[MrAwesomeJohn1049]

@asylumman123 fools of damnation, sancta terra

[rockonwild]

that is not the full song, you are missing a few seconds at the end

[jakedge3]

yeah, c'mon I'm no troll!

now these bozos on the other hand.......(trolling noob)

[zonkowaaa]

awesome! ♥

[kennsie8]

Where can I buy epica's albums? someone, anyone, please tell me.

[EvanescenceOD]

@kennsie8 Their official website.... O___O I forgot what its called but look up the website on google!!! xD

[peeonmyface666]

@kennsie8 you can get almost mp3 album on amazon.com

[Arnoldnesis]

Great band. It's so fun to see epica grow, and goes on to do the same style. If you like their music, try listening to:

Capricia - Recline in the Fire or

Capricia - Something's Wrong

Might like it ;-)

[Emper0rH0rde]

I know it's unintentional, but this song makes me think of Bella's relationship with Edward in Twilight.

"I feel only misery for myself when I look through the eyes of someone else."

"I prefer to be unhappy with you, rather than being depressed without you. I belong to someone I'm dedicated to. Nothing lasts forever, but you. You do."

[wafflecakepans]

@Emper0rH0rde YOU.

Please kill yourself. Preferably by drowning.

[Emper0rH0rde]

@wafflecakepans And why would I want to do that?

[diamadtiel]

The composition is amazing, I'm glad they make their songs longer so you can hear what they actually wrote. I most likely would listen to a hour long Epica song

[killyourtv4321]

WHAT A FUCK !!!!! I don't know if it's too late to keep awake but I see that the picture of the album is moving and I did not take any shit to see it.

[PEFANIS1]

@killyourtv4321 tis not moving probably it is a slideshow of the same pic in diferent qualitys....

i belive ..3

[alhamidz]

i like it...!!!!

[pictureframe1]

awesome song

[LegendBaal]

FUCKING EW SONG. wtf.

[kennsie8]

@LegendBaal You don't have good taste in music then.

[hollowpoint249]

3:49 - 4:20 is my favorite musical moment of all time. its just...so....awesome!!!

[DekasaSovKhan]

@hollowpoint249

Asymmetric time FTMFW!!!

I agree.

[wouther92]

@hollowpoint249 I didn't even have to look it up what part you meant - it's so obviously awesome!

[bloodfalcon7722]

Boner

[jona4176]

Thumb this up if you also chose this version of the song because of the front picture

[Viccerz]

This song... it's an eargasm.

[Lishere656]

i cummed, in my ears

[angerdayjonson]

i love you all

[proudbugowner]

@angerdayjonson we love you too. :)

[MsChicagotica]

PEDAZO DE CANCION Y DE LETRA

[yadydark]

wrooouuu..!!!!!! Never blind me, do not be a foolish thief

[veryboredpug]

God I'd go lesbian for my whole life to fuck her once x_x

[MiniMuzzaGaming]

@veryboredpug :))) Haha dude,indeed she is a hot woman :D

[koocharlie]

simone is a boy name

[BlackWentel]

@koocharlie It totally isn't, in dutch anyways. Simon is a boy name yes, but Simone is a girl name and even a very common one, actually more common then Simon xD

[keller4life]

@koocharlie Not in The Netherlands, and that's where Epica is from.

[CarpeJugulum7]

OMG.

I'm so fucking metal that I'm gonna bash on what you guys like.

I'm so fucking original that I'm gonna bash on something not many people know.

Cause god knows if you're not sticking to the formula of "metal," then it obviously CAN'T be good. DUH.

...really, people?

[Sith90lord]

One thoughtless moment passes in slow motion

As I lie down I realise that...

All I wish is to get rid of this obsessive devotion

[AriaNycyus]

Yeah!!! awesome. I bang my head EPICA!!!!

[MetalDaleA7X]

me: mate wanna come on a mission?

mate: what mission?

me: gonna go club 28 people!

mate: how the fuck are we gonna do that just us two?

me: ah, theres 970 people coming with us!

[SheldonJpiripCooper]

if you don´t know what genre is it... CALL IT "EPIC METAL"!!!!

[Darthpathfinder]

@SheldonJpiripCooper

You can say that again.

[SheldonJpiripCooper]

@Darthpathfinder

just got the album 3 weeks ago!!

can´t believe they are still selling it on Mexico, only 2 copies left on the store... I have one of them =)

[astrolifter]

@SheldonJpiripCooper You're lucky, I can't find anything by them in the USA. But stores will stock up on shit music like aerosmith...

[TheMonsterInHerBed]

@SheldonJpiripCooper symphonic metal,,but i like epic metal a lot more lol :)

[EVANESCENCE2827]

i love this songs and i love this band (EPICA)

[Irishson2]

I think the only one who don't like this song is Justin Bieber..lol

[tony4ist]

the name just says everything about this song (obsessive)...................­.

[tony4ist]

just brutal



[rockonwild]

Awesome Music, this is the Music to listen to. Makes me wanna worship the Devil haha, oh wait, I already do according to some people hahaha :D

[Metalornothing1]

[Fanis1231]

[Quartet82]

[pans1968]

[RougeRoseKatMarie]

Wow this band IS EPIC lol

[20trucidar]

[Kduncan3077]

So they are in Ohio today I missed them! :( But I will see them someday! :)

[Metalornothing1]

@Kduncan3077 thats the spirit!

[dragonscarz13]

Fuck, too many goosebumps...this music is almost TOO good o.0

[diamadtiel]

O.O, where is my face.

[FantasmaLuna]

God, Simone's voice is gorgeous!

[MrMinnemann]

@FantasmaLuna

I'm sure you can buy it online and get it shipped to you. Just use Google (:

[freyface999]

27 people were obsessively devoted...

[computerorphone]

what a sexy song!

[derhollerache1]

BRILLIANT! FUCKIN' BRILLIANT!

[mikasailor]

i thing Simone should do a duet with Altti Veteläinen from Eternal Tears of Sorrow

[evilryuuu]

I'd make love to this song... :P thats how epic it is O_O - grabs the closest girl- Lets bone! xD

[TheAngelsfallfirst1]

‎*___*  SIMONESIMONESIMONE

[acsapinheiro]

I Love it!!!!

\m/_

[Rayzalaff]

Obsessive Devotion is without doubt a truly awesome gothic metal masterpiece and would be even better if the singing was just left to Simone. This band has one of the greatest female vocalist I have ever heard. Sarah Brightman isn't a patch on Simone. Truly one of the greatest female voices on this planet belongs to Simone!

[lauwify]

@Rayzalaff no man the death growls together with her voice gives it a little bit of stronger metal (:

[AntCakeforLife]

I'm a painter, and I listen to every sort of music that gives me chills, extacy or just good feelings. And Fuck Yeah! This is THE shit! Go Metal! (Justin Bieber makes people wanna draw dicks... Kill him...)

[AmyLeeMyStar]

@1foreversedated1 it's symphonic metal,not symphonic rock.

[nugget254]

Amen to that suevagem

[YamiLuiz]

esta cancion es un plagiop a la cancion de nightwish llamada kinslayer

[guigowlo]

@YamiLuiz nada a ver.....

[Zoza15]

3:50 the Madness begins..

So intense!!!

[1foreversedated1]

you can't tell me that after the first 7 seconds of this song, you aren't totally blown away. lmao. :O i love this song. >;3 symphonic rock, ftw.

[SpiReaEntertainment]

Is there an instrumental version of this track? It's really good stuff :)

[kallekala2]

Its been now ages when i listened and watched this video. OH god epica is so epic! :)

[FranAssis1]

26 idiots around the world.

[randomJer1337]

@FranAssis1 26 million

[ellohymm]

hEy, do you believe in jesus the SAVIOUR?

[GingerCrashDummy]

@ellohymm nope

[othervision]

@ellohymm

It is not about Jesus, God ...

it's about bigotry and leaders 'religious' and let that blind people stupid whith 'Obsessive Devotion'

[Tyko9464]

@othervision

EXACTLY.

[1foreversedated1]

@othervision

lmao..i find it kind of humerous that you said god right after you said jesus. "it's not about jesus...god..."

hahahaha. im sorry. :3 i just...that was a silleh time.

[DancingDead6]

epica is epic <3

[KakaTehPinguin]

[glupsamja]

[xaxelmael]

[axaracron]

Great song! Great album cover!

[carolcastroatgmail]

I love Epica since my 14 years old, now I am 22.. I love them and I went here in S.F. in their show , Amazing!!! But I am from Brazil and there there are many many fans .. I don't know why anyone know this Band in S.F ... that so bad!

[LoveofAphrodite]

amazing!! Epica is one of my favorite bands :)

[mojoglowgo]

omg, this is the reason why i love Epica!!!

[ErmacWrath]

Outstanding; Masterpiece :P

[pvnkkchikk]

this song makes me want to bang my head around

[inutaisho94]

@pvnkkchikk I just did x3

[swarrior80]

illusive consensus was their best song

[darcksephiroth]

Genial, simplemente exelente

[AnimangaSkater]

When its rap and metal its called nu metal, when its classical and metal its called syphonic metal

[SOADkid122]

epic

[SinerAthin]

''Do we live in legends or on the green patches of the earth?''

[jullie400]

This song gives me chills, but not in the bad way xD..

[jullie400]

This song gives me chills, but not in the bad way xD..

[FurYDaY]

facundo es gay porque va a ir a ver a epica

[evilhappybunny55]

<33333 her voice !!!!!! its perfect!

[DarkLightningEnvy]

Seeing them live Sunday. SO excited. This song, this BAND, is spectacular.

[fabiomeloutah]

Really STRONG and SUPER ENERGETIC! Awesome!

[seuvagem]

To the hell if it's Symphonic, Gothic, Power, or any fucking definition you guys want to put.

For me, this is Awesome Metal! That's all

[mojoglowgo]

@seuvagem It needs it's own definition, Awesome metal works, epica metal gets my vote though lol XD

[Zoza15]

@seuvagem Do you even know the Definition of Symphony?

You can loudly hear orchestral instruments combined with Metal Guitars and drums and Piano...

And that makes Epica A Symphonic Metal band..

[Arugal1984]

@seuvagem jajaja exactly xDD

[Arugal1984]

@seuvagem jajaja exactly xDD

[uskokpravi]

@seuvagem yeah yeah yeah right on brotha

[Kworjj]

\m/

[Elymar2112]

"I prefer to be unhappy with you, rather to be depressed without you" .... This describes so much my feeling nowadays

Seem they live is awesome, I wish they had played this song in that concert, but they're super cool

[o0XxShimmyxX0o]

Epic!!!

[TheRealVahnLegaia]

Don't feed the trolls, kids. They'll keep coming back and replying and just pissing people off more because they have nothing better to do with their time.

[ThatDreamAgain]

If this is not metal who the hell cares? :s

If this song were in a genre like tango won't u listen to 'em?...

I guess they r good... beyond the clasification u want to give to them... if u ask me...

[Lime690]

Hey people all I have to say for those against metal in any of its numerous forms why dont you go and listen to your gay top 40 or other gay music and leave us true metalheads to our own devices.

[Punkshadoww]

Agree

[Wyndrax]

That's exactly the problem. This is barely metal.

[TropSakuroMiteryu]

Things are composed of traits. This is how we classify what something is. Particles compose atoms, and atoms compose molecules. Music, too, is composed of traits. These traits classify Epica to be Symphonic Metal. It's irrelevant what something barely is or isn't, because it still -is- that thing. If that's too much for you listen to something else instead of shitting on a comment box with stuff you can't back up. Example being your argument with vatoloco22 that you looked like an idiot in.

[Elymar2112]

Symphonic Gothic metal, Gothic metal... u should investigate more about to understand

[ryder187mac]

@Lime690 "True metalheads". This symphonic shit is terrible, and is the worse metal, you'd be better off listening to Top40, trust me. This is actually a step below, where you think you're superior to others with your taste for metal and you think this band is the shit while suddenly all mainstream artists are terrible.

[mynameisnyhm]

@ryder187mac troll fail at trolling

[gabi690]

@ryder187mac

YES!!!

[onett128]

@ryder187mac To be honest, this music is fantastic not only because it sounds amazing, but it also takes alot of effort to compose. Now head back under your bridge.

[xioxio1000]

@onett128 This song would and probally did take a helluva time to compose

[MsMetalNote]

@ryder187mac You hear that, y'all? No more liking Epica, it means we think we're superior over everyone else.

[rockonwild]

@ryder187mac epic fail of trolling lol

[dAedAliAnMiNd]

@ryder187mac Well,I will try not to blast or curse you and I will ask you: what kind of metal do you recommend? Give me some bands

[AnAutumnWind]

Why the hell is everyone on here bitching? If you don't like death grunts, or Epica in general, go listen to something else. Its that simple, geez.

[Wyndrax]

Gay.

[Jemalacane]

I like the growling vocals.

[N4GMetal]

Ugh...I thought I could get into this band too...

That growling though. Ugh...

Do they do that on all their songs?

[Kisuke4Life]

The growling is pretty bad. They do it in most their songs, but listen to "Dance of Fate" or "Sancta Terra" those two at least don't have growls.

[nirin666]

the growling aren't bad.. but simone is much better.. try unleashed, solitary ground and safegaurd to paradise

[BuffyAddicted]

not not all of them.

I thinks never enought doenst have it and chasing the dragon either.

[DominicBuchholz]

@N4GMetal

A roughly even majority.

[N4GMetal]

What's your music background?

[vatoloco22]

@Wyndrax whats the only metal thing about this? lol do you have any idea what metal is? theres so many different forms of metal, thrash, hardcore, death, melodic death, pogressive, black, symphonic, power, etc and so on, they're all unique in their own way, sooo what are you tying to point out?

[Wyndrax]

"Hardcore" isn't a metal subgenre. Sorry.

[vatoloco22]

@Wyndrax Metlcore*** happy? and you didn't even answer my question. not much to say huh? just some loser kid with nothing better to d but try to start shit on youtube, lol theres enough of you out there.

[VelnaW]

@N4GMetal The growling makes sense if you listen carefully to the text! Personaly I think Mark does a great job ! Simone's voice is even more angelic in constrat with grunts =)

[DhieP9]

simone simons' hot yey !

[PhantomBunny]

"All I wish is to get rid of this Obsessive Devotion!"

Loved the madness in her voice.
