Epica - Tides Of Time (live at Vera, Groningen)

[ThePoetsWolf09]

And it got sunny afterwards... Thats retarded.

[ThePoetsWolf09]

It started to rain as soon as I put this on Lol.

[end2810]

im musician i play saxo and syths and guittare and i teach to sing wellin fact at the begining her voice sounded but maybe its fior the cuality of the movil or camera that affected her voice.or maybe cause she msut be tired..(singing ooera isnt easy,,) but then whe the song was burt the strong part she sang better and at the end she did it as she knows it means great...well thats what i hear and what i watched...

[Elazul2k]

This is THE best song off their new album.

[hadessama93]

Epica is going to come to mexico on january, and Im going to be there

but I know mmm just a few songs of them

consign, never enough, cry for the moon, this, never enough and like other 10, the mayority are of the new album

could anyone tell me their best songs please?

from one fan to.....me XD

[Lindasacola]

@hadessama93

Hi, I told you that was not the point.... But if you want to discuss that.

Well, it´s not a matter of opnion it´s a matter of fact. She´s an amazing singer and that´s a fact.

She might have some ups and downs. But who doesn´t. And that does not mean she´s bad.

Don´t you agree?

Kisses!

[hadessama93]

@Lindasacola .....eh? ಠ_ಠ

[CrazyIQ]

I just came back here for another rush of goosebumps. I was converted that night in Vera to become an Epica-believer! Can't wait to see them again!

[mapage7]

I really like her, and its true there's no comparisson between live and the cd. But,I mean this live! When I saw her in Greece she was way better than this performance. Singers are people and they have both bad and good days. Let's just say that this was a bad day. I do singing too and sometimes voice just doesn't come out!! so we must judge by the whole and not some bad lives...

[Barryfans]

pe: she's the best

;)

♥ i love u Simone ♥

[Symphonicify]

My Favorite song by them

[Yithar]

omg I get so excited when I hear that piano at the intro... I just love this song

[rscagirl1]

They have great songs, and I love the band but if she sings live... It's terrible!

[Lindasacola]

@rscagirl1

I doubt u could do better. But that´s not even the point. The point is that she sings pretty well live and if u think otherwise that just goes to show u don´t understand much about music. I´m sorry, but she one of the best singers out there.

[rscagirl1]

@Lindasacola  I Saw her a couple times... And it's just reality. She has a really beautifull voice, but live? ... Even in this song you can hear that she sings somethimes false. My best friend is a great great fan of epica and she says the same.

And it's not about that I could sing better than her. That's not the point :) . I respect your and others there opinion, so respect mine :)

And I know a lot of music, so it's a bit childisch dat you bring that up. My apologies :)

[Mac2HOF]

Fantastic vocal,reminds me of Nightwish(pre Anette Olzon) I listen to these vocals & I get all goose bumpy! This song is truly amazing!!!

[beuzigre]

she's an angel...

[PHW]

She's so beautiful and her voice is amazing.

[pink70makeup]

I saw them in Porto Alegre and I got quite amazed - they're awesome in live!

[wishforeternity]

I started listening Epica just after their new album came out. I've been practising singing this song for ages, but still my voice breaks at the middle of refrain

[EstoyDODO95]

yayyyyyy

I love this song and she sings it as the best!!

[Ravenheart486250]

sawthem Intoronto was blown away

[Jirutsuji]

Beautiful song, it gave me chills during their concert in Zwolle 9 january this year :)

[CrazyIQ]

I was there at Vera that night. I was not too much of an Epica fan from what I heard before. During the night I changed my mind, and this song just blew me away! I have seen other goth bands with female lead voices, but sorry ladies, it's back to vocal school for you, Simone is the Queen!

Now, whenever I play the album, and track 9 is up, it sends shivvers down my spine.

Looking forward to see and hear Epica again!

[elenamidnightsun]

Crazy IQ...epica is one of my favourite bands but other female lead voices may not be equal but they sing different types of songs.its not back to vocal school...

[lateralex90]

wow so she finally discovered her face resonator!!! that's awesome!!!...thou she needs to sing this one not only in the upper level,she also needs to make the voice fulfill the whole space

[Actorguy0330]

@lateralex90 I'm pretty excited about this!

[slevinkey]

daaaaaaamn! A fuckin' M A Z I N G

[13Nelynt]

She takes my breath away...

[kiddzi94]

her voice is amazing <3 the concert in ny 1-29 was amazing

[WTepicaxandria]

ruimp is right... epica makes such wonderful ballads like their solitary ground, feint, trois vierges, white waters, safeguard to paradise, etc... but above all, tides of time is just so perfect... i was instantly hooked the first time that i heard this song...

[ctmaniak]

cant get tired of listening to her

[MissTFC]

She is so powerful when she sings lyrical ... Love it !!

[Tuannyify]

A Simonee é a mais lindaa, com a voz mais perfeitaa, ela é tudoo meuuu!

[TheAmorousOdium]

Just beautiful. Simone is THE best. Hands down. Can't wait to see them live next month. My sister and I have VIP tickets ^^

[bombasexual]

i'm from portugal ... and i was suppossed to see them in november but the show was cancelled ... so now i have to wait 'till march -_-'

[ElinelovesWT]

@bombasexual:

poor you.. I wish you lots of fun at their show, it's worth waiting 'till March. ;)

[bombasexual]

tks .. yes, i know it's worth waiting ^^ we're talking about epica =D

[mshonglan]

emotional sweet song, how beautiful the melody :)

[PsychoticFairy333]

Can't wait to see them in January!!! <3333 I LOVE YOU SIMONE!!! haha

[masacre77vssam]

Muy buena cancion la verdad, y la interpretacion es unica.

[icantfindgoodname]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA epica love u! simone! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa x.x love that song

[TheJuanK93]

i love her

[Lucidanz]

Honestly one of the most *amazing* songs in modern time. She is just breath taking with her vocals on this, it just soars and goes on and on. Man. Anyone who cant listen to this song and "feel" it is is dead inside imo even if you dont like this type of music.

[RuiMP]

I could not agree more with your comment. Simone demonstrates with this song all of her power and versatility, touching our hearts directly. Epica has a special tradition to creat such amazing ballad songs, I have no doubt about that, but they really outdone themselves with Tides of Time, I wasn't expecting such masterpiece in the new album. The vocals, the melody, the guitar solo, everytings fits perfectly in great harmony.

Love it <3

[dynastysamu]

there re no words that can explain how much i love this song

[Felinestance]

This song took me to levels of emotion I did not know within myself

[nighthorseman85]

thx for sharing.

[alllexxxa]

Esa nena si es hermosa..... este sabado al concierto siiiiiii jejeje

[WTepicaxandria]

oh, i'm sorry... i have listened to it again... and yeah... now i heard "seeds of eulogy"... i'm sorry... at first i really heard sing forth malachi...

[ChaoticBrini]

OMG!!! ilove her voice so much! and this song is really amazing! i get goosebumps everytime i hear it! i saw them live at munich and she also performed tides of time there! it was gorgeous!!! simone is so great!!! ^^

[ElinelovesWT]

Stop duscussing about the lyrics please. These are the correct ones from the booklet. And thanks for the many views and votings, really appreciate that. :) P.s: please comment in English so everyone knows what it means, thank you. ^__^

\m/

[Elymar2112]

[Vanexus]

Qué pena que nos los pudiese ver al final en Madrid por la cancelación. Habrá que esperar a Marzo. =(

[miaumiaumiau88]

Simone you rocks! i love you silly woman ;__; <3 so beautiful

[vmmc7608]

[SrDarkbright]

Seeds of eulogy to sow along with dream

Fill the need that can leave us grieving alone

This is the correct lyric!!

I saw in CD!!!!

;)

[JaCinTha0]

@SrDarkbright

almost yeah:

- Seeds of eulogy to sow along with dreamS, fill the need that can leave us grieving alone - ;) Be happy you got the booklet, your english sucks. Sorry. ;)

[TheYamr]

[mariannelaine]

[1000xela]

Beautiful

[superknuffelig]

wow. perfect.

[catrindarkangel]

angel in the human body

[sjokkendedog61]

this song is so powerful, simone's voice has so much power and emotion <3

thank you so much eline for recording it (:

[Mirmidon87]

february cant come any sooner !!!!!

[RetsuZaiZEn]

The new Epica sound is really awesome, and Simone is always perfect.

[WTepicaxandria]

malachi is in the Bible... it says there that it's meaning is "my messenger"... the lyrics "sing forth malachi makes sense, right?" or, sing forth "my messenger"

[JaCinTha0]

@WTepicaxandria

yeah, its pssible but NOT right. Look in the booklet that comes with the cd I would say :). It's " seeds of eulogy" trust me.

[WTepicaxandria]

no... i have listened to it's chorus over and over again and all i hear is "sing forth malachi"... i'm from the philippines and i can't find another person here who loves epica... it's sad that a great band is not known here... but still, even if i'm alone here in the philippines who loves epica, i'll stand for it...

[JaCinTha0]

@WTepicaxandria

Do you actually think that they wrote the wrong lyrics down in their own cd booklet? And by the way, I really do hear 'seeds of eulogy'. I will stop arguing with you now, I don't really care about it actually. Good luck.

I'll love Epica forever!!!

[ElinelovesWT]

I will change them in a few minutes, I didn't made the other one myself. Be patient.

[elyvanescente]

can someone write the correct lyrics please????!!!!

[tincho20sal]

Hermosa!

[simplyAle77]

con Simone ogni aggettivo è sprecato,è bravissima bellissima,stupenda!!!

[tanderullum]

The lyrics are way wrong xD May I suggest you look in the booklet and change them?

[bombasexual]

i'm going to see them here in portugal =D no matter what

[elyvanescente]

que pedo con tu nombre jajajajjaj xD

[bombasexual]

gracias .!.

[SrDarkbright]

Aaaaaaaaah!!! Eu amo essa música!!!!!

Simone cantou perfeitamente bem!! Não errou nada!!!! \o/ 

Lindos!!

[Withinscars]

Addictive Album, i love it!

[ItalianoManiac]

I think the lyrics are wrong. Especially the chorus. She doesn't sing "Sing forth Malachi"... You can see it. It seems more like "sing for purity" or something. Let's wait for official lyrics from the booklet! :)

[elyvanescente]

actually i think she sais sing for malachi, wich is a historical guy a philosofo haha xD well that

[ItalianoManiac]

No, she doesn't sing neither "sing for malachi" nor "sing for purity". According to the booklet, she sings "Seeds of eulogy to sow along with dreams // Fill the need that can leave us grieving alone"

[ravenphoenixmadrilej]

i think it will be awesome if simone and tarja do a song together... maybe epica could feature tarja in one of their future singles... and besides, it is because of tarja that simone studied classical singing.. it is when she heard and listened to nightwish's songs to which tarja was the vocalist that time... it was before epica was formed...

[Missflygirl87]

She better than ever before!!!!!! Dios mio!!!....amo esta mujer y esta banda!!!totally the best!!!!....Me encantaria verlos en vivo!......=)

[aguusbl]

OMG! Yeah, she has improved her voice so much!!! This was perfect! I'm so glad :D. Also because, like vnom0301 said, she doesn't use her operatic voice in most of the new songs, what's a shame :(

[Leoprates]

for me isn't a shame =p

[Escapist1st]

OMG!! this is just perfect! *.* I love this song and her voice is perfect singing it live, she has imporved a lot

cant wait to se them next 31 october! *0*

[JosephKrammer]

¿Where at?

[Escapist1st]

I'll see them in madrid, Spain =)

[ElinelovesWT]

Have fun. :)

[NemoTheWayfarer]

Really? They will come to Portugal in 1st November :D Spain and Portugal get Epica \m/

[maryofjesus]

she has a better voice than before!!! D8 incredible simone and a beautiful song!!! Epica just rules...just that XD thanks for the video :)

[guimcrepaf]

Wow ! It sounds really great ! And Simone now is singing similarly to Floor, if i close my eyes i can imagine that is Floor who is singing this song... 02:55 to 04:10 is amazing ! Congrats for the band , and for you, this video also is so nice ! :)

[mishkyn910]

Simone---what a voice!!

[Kilicka123]

Thank you! :D

[MeAmie94]

I love Epica so much!

Epica is the BEST!

Simone <3

This song is so beautiful!

Can't wait for the 16.!!

[DarkOmar07]

INCREIBLE :O !!! Perfect Music and Perfect Voice :O !!! Simone is great \m/ *.*

[vnom0301]

She doesn't use her operatic voice in most of the new songs, so i'm really glad to listen to this masterpiece, and she has improved her mezzo skills in my oppinion.

[RuiMP]

I have no words to describe my feelings towards this presention. Simone really, but really, impressed me. What a voice, what a felling. So touchy, I can't wait for the album anymore. This is a great song, made me cry =(

[fabidivinecomedy]

beautiful voice and beautiful song

Simone shakes her jaw when she does the "operatic" part I've heard it's bad, I've being in a singer's forum on internet and they told me Simone isn't a good singer technically

I don't care

[MoNzTeR969]

she's shaking her head not her jaw (thank god!)

but some of the biggest proffesionals are real idiots =P

simone is growing <=D

[iLeS83]
