THE GATHERING - Liberty Bell (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[MrBlacklorre]

Sitting in the makeup chair! She looks hot (except for the dreads)

[marcccish]

mnie się nie podoba a 211 osób ma swój gust i nie lubi tej muzyki

[mindgamestrivia]

Just found this band and I'm hooked on this track!!

[isktrfu]

@mindgamestrivia Try the studioversion, if you haven't allready. IMO, it's much more dynamic than this rushed radio edit.

[JohnNall]

It's better to be an asshole than a dumb ass.:-)

[JohnNall]

Act like a white person and get rid of those dread locks. Not very pretty.

[KillCrimson]

@JohnNall asshole!

[carnalitious]

who would have known blinking could be so sexy ^_^

[pcrvg0808]

Dutch Delight

[firdomiro]

super vec

[marchandon84]

a mi me pasa todo lo contrario, no me gusta el tema, pero el video me gusta,,me encanta como se ve la ANNEKE aqui...me iria a la luna con ella.

[Dtoburn2]

im not really sitting in a chair

[Detoxx2k7]

sounds a little hawkwindish

and that's a good thing

[ImdaCherryontop]

@Detoxx2k7 What does that even mean? :P

[C35ARD]

this is a great record!

[54virginiagraveser54]

ehm i can make you go crazy

[JoannaJenaew311]

lol I do everything for your satisfaction

[JanitaOletavp911]

so Your little princess is here to please you

[paradisethespell]

Gran tema, pero que video mas malo!

[SiobhanWalkingstick]

Great song. But I have to say that what i thought as soon as I saw her in t his video is that HOLY HELL it really was the 90's lol. Biggest glitter phase for women everywhere and shes blinking so much because shes wearing a bit much. Cool effect though lol.

[pokeshmon]

shwing

[alexs708]

Красавица!

[svaldesn]

Who watched this video in the Santiago`s subway years ago? here in Chile... near 2000/1 year

[Thespaceforurmom]

Anneke+Dreads= me gusta

[ozzyslasher1970]

wow a band with talent. its a miracal. lacuna coile i thought was the last talent band around.i also know wings of lillyanna she has real talent. met her bout a year ago.real down to earth and aprochable. her first song is called echo.ck it out.she is from my home town buffalo.

[alexandr6661000]

ЕБАЛ Я В РОТ ТАМУ ККОМУ ЭТО НЕ ПОНРАВИТСА!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[panzerrat]

Whenever I'm in a bar with an internet jukebox, I like to play "Stump the jukebox". this song is always on my list. Unfortunately, here in the states, I've yet to be unsuccessful. Haven't had it come up once. Damn!



[GSPM4EVER]

the girl in this video reminds me of the girl with dreadlocks in the Norwegian horror flick Dead Snow; kinda looks like her too, come to that

[whotaughtyou]

GADDAFI STATUTE OF LIBERTY BOUGHT

[MrCountme]

Oh how I miss the days when this band was good, before all female vocals. Now they are just poppy sell out trash. They went from doom metal to industrial crap!

[musicXofXfate]

@MrCountme Heaven forbid they branch out and try something new.

[TheLizardRox]

'How To Measure A Planet?' is one of the most underrated albums ever. Probably the best double album of the 90's.

[infernalmetaller]

joder!!! me gusto la cancion por alguna razon!!

[Titiodracon777]

187 comeram cocô!

[DannyZproductions]

Why can't all astronaughts be as hot as her?

[AkbalAlx]

Gorgeous...

[gamotousername]

whas this in a fifa playstation game?? fifa 2002 or 2003?

[creedlinkinfan]

Anneke is so beautifull woman because she looks optimistics and very cute. I like her.

[orionblack]

who's this guy igoape??i absolutly enjoy this song and my mainstay of music consist of fear factory,carnifex..in other words the total opposite..it's just something about this song ^^..30 seconds ?? really??

[dansawesome3]

Someone please lock me in the spaceship with that Anneke!

[creedlinkinfan]

@dansawesome3 Me too!!!

[dansawesome3]

@creedlinkinfan

I wouldn't even mind if that sorta-hot bassist was up there too. But I'd rather just have Anneke, she can sing and do crazy stuff with her hair!

[igoape]

Whats to dislike? Seriously? Whats to like would be a better question. The lyrics are unintelligible as she sings them. The music is generic synth/pop. Nothing an average band can't crank out. Then there is the poor production quality of the video itself. One in seven people disliked this. That is pretty high and therefore excludes sneezes, cats and other accidents. I gave it 30 seconds before I reached for the dislike button.

[Jaksiel]

@igoape Generic synth/pop? Do your ears work? Oh wait, you only listened to 30 seconds. Smart.

[akbg]

@igoape "generic synth/pop"? Lol, you must be deaf

[The61769]

@igoape

settle down homo

[Rafamrkz]

I love The gathering really, but I still prefer Agua De Anique :D

[JURCON1]

MIR RULEZ!!!

[gerymylove]

Anneke with dreadlocks! I mean, I always love her, every The Gathering record is awesome and Anneke´s voice and looks are perfect. But I really adore the pictures and videos of all the 1998/1999 gigs.

The Gathering truly touch and impress me every time I listen to one of their songs.

[zoodgal]

koukla mou esy!!!!!!!!!  :)))))))

[elydawat]

reminded me of some music from fear facotry

[peaveyandsmolski]

Anneke... A beautiful woman with an angels voice. I would love to hear a duet with her and Alison Krauss.

My 3rd fav Gathering song behind In Motion#1 and Nighttime Birds.

[spiralmovement]

great track ... the album also is great arguebly their best ... Anneke is wonderful as always ...

[jakeguitarpro01]

i really thing they captured the 'space' element in the song and i think they did it well. put this on loud as fuck and walk out the room so you cant be temepted to watch the video, it proper gives you a wierd adrenaline rush if you let your thought loose. i love it, top marks!!

[xxjennafurrxx]

I don't know why I like this song. Her voice is really pretty. :)

[martinemes]

@jfalkins maybe they don't like glitter make-up and dread locks. Personally I think Anneke would be hot even in a gorilla suit.

[androida08]

Very good video and song.

Anneke is so beautiful with dreadlocks. I'm glad to have seen this wonderful singer face to face here in Brazil. She is very kind and humble. Anneke and the fans were in the same level, almost face to face, in the show, that became more special after each song.

[gangrene67]

all dislikes=britney spears and justin bieber fans

[Psymoneyezed]

i counted 92 blinks!

[orionblack]

@Psymoneyezed maybe its just that metallic makeup wearing her eyes down ^^..

[checosquis]

The album song is a little long, but i did't know that liberty bell had a video, anneke is a very beautiful women.

[SpykeZ0129]

I think this like button crap is the worst thing youtube has ever implemented. All the comments anymore is either about some retarded joke of people missing the like button or justin beiber jokes.

[Chiligyro]

@SpykeZ0129 I agree with you, I too am finding it very annoying that around 10% of all comments have something to do with the like/dislike system. But the highest rated comment system is also a bad thing in some cases as it provokes people to write something that they think will give them thumbs up...

[sicklegamelife]

i just liked the gurl nothing more..

[NADeschamps]

strange vid wtf

[trocsok]

Anneke is the gift of the gods!

[tsiokosd]

I met this wonderful person 4 days ago in an Athens show...she had a smile upon her face all the time,she was just patient with hundrends of people wanted to take a picture with her and autographs and staff and the smile never left her face...when my turn came to talk to her and sign up my cd and the ticket she just smiled and she was so sweet on her speaking like she was not tired from the 2.5 hour set or the people she had to deal with... thumbs up if u like Anneke !!!!!!!!!!

[jeanfrexaguirre]

@tsiokosd anneke RULES beers up from chile!!!(the gathering recorded a dvd here XD!!! WE LOVE ANNEKEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

[tsiokosd]

@jeanfrexaguirre got the dvd already!!!! beers up!!

[ocelotcheek]

Yay I fookin love this song, like Abba gone space rock, check Anneka out on Devin Townsends new album Addicted especially "Numbered" her singing is so beautiful it actually made my eyes leak a bit!!

[beerhoven]

@ocelotcheek Thanks a TON for the heads up on the new Devin Townsend with her. I'd love it if she became a permanent singer for his projects. I do like his voice too though.

[orionblack]

hmmm..beutiful song..what can i say??

kind grew on me....

[TheJake3]

The gathering use to be a metal band right?

Because this seems more like Alanis Morissette.

[stevethediseaseTUBE]

This band has amazing melodies and meaning into their music. It is hard NOT to be entrance by their sound. Then again...they are on one of the best metal labels of all time. \m/

[TheRocKYaSiR]

ALL TIME BEST, ANNEKE :)

[heroesdrhouseaddict1]

I really liked anekke singing with moonspell and especially within temptation but that.....well i am not excited

[damo666smith]

Anneke has the most beautiful pure voice that can melt the heart of a devil. A beautiful person and a beautiful soul.

[ElaTheVampiress]

She's so freaking beautifull...Love this song..

[YTubeMoralAction]

I think those glitters were hurting her eyes.

[mondoraptor]

you want to sit down ,but you sold yer chair ,so you just stand there.... you just stand there ... inner , inner city ,inner city pressure.... lolz

[SillySantaHat]

@mondoraptor What happened to those other underpants that you had?

[mondoraptor]

Love Space ,Love Anneke ,Love The Gathering , Love Holland (the motherland)

[MrHellstorm]

I'm not into dreadlock girls, but she's so beautiful, cute and joyful in this one that actually there's no other way than to just smile :)

[faylinnELVE]

she is so beautiful!

[athropos]

Imagine a 6 month long trip to mars, but Anneke on the ship it really doesnt seem that bad, at all.

[jfalkins]

Really ? 142 dislikes ? how is that even remotely possible? Did they sneeze when going for the like button or did like there cat jump on the keyboard? Not saying that everyone should like/love this but dislike ? whats to dislike ?

[Palominoid]

@jfalkins She does blink a lot.

[jeroen0011]

@jfalkins well i dislike the fact i don't see the musicians, only a woman in a spaceship, dancing a bit and lip singing, starts to get close to mainstream :p

[metabog]

@jfalkins Yes, some people do not like the kind of music that you like. Wow, holy crap on a cracker, that must be something incredible and utterly paralyzing.

[wizardquest93]

@jfalkins i sneezed, srry

[tsirosgoddammit]

@jfalkins it's not in 1080p

it's not even in stereo!

[angynnild]

@jfalkins

Well! It´s to tedious. Almost no variation. I was almost comatosed by it.

[efrainc23]

@jfalkins maybe they dislike the video, not the music

[TantiNoanix]

@jfalkins

I think its because Strange Machines and Leaves are waaaaaaay better then this song... :P

[leroy1789]

@jfalkins about those who dislike , not my case, anyway the effect on the voice of this song is unnecessary, and the gathering is a little bit "kitch", so i well can understand that a few 10% dislike.

[ladyraven31]

@jfalkins yeah, now it's up to 187! WTF??? I'm thinking that either their little ones were messing with the mouse, or sneezing.....that has to be it! Love love love the Gathering!!

[l3m0np13]

@jfalkins The lyrics, it's like this.... Lyrics are metaphorical blood that's being pumped through the body (band) and the rhythm/temp/style is the heart. With not so great blood what tends to happen?

[setupDisk]

@jfalkins 142 dislikes are the girls jealous of her :)

[killsaus]

@jfalkins Maby the 'dislikers' dislike the fact a women is in the space? or the fact she has an nosering? or the fact that she wears clothes while being alone in the spaceship? or maby the fact that she sings about sitting in the chair while in fact being not?

Btw, she could be the sister of Newton Faulkner! :P

[Flacoblues88]

@jfalkins Daltonics maybe?

[sookoldee]

I feel like im in a BIF NAKED video...lol

[tarantinno007]

for me Anneke the best ever

[lordmjh]

If I was in a spacecraft with Anneke van Giersbergen,I wouldn't be thinking of much to do except mostly perform weightless biological experiments of the immoral kind with Anneke.

[darthinfurnus]

@lordmjh

We'd have to fight to the death for that one dude!

[lordmjh]

@darthinfurnus or use her as a share-toy(like a time-share townhouse).

[darthinfurnus]

@lordmjh

That could possibly work...possibly!

[HooligannSTR]

@TheMetalHeadGr This is pretty different from the rest of their music. Not only does the rest of the album sound nothing like this, but also all their albums sound pretty different from each other.

[lean84]

I love this song, you just have to take it to what it is: the "fun" song in a very experimental album. I bought HTMAP when it was released and I instantly fell in love with it!!!. I used to listen to it every single day and it oppened my mind towards other genres of music like trip hop and electronic music (progressive house, minimal, etc) -I used to be a "metal guy"-. Now, about 12 years later I still belive this is the most beautiful record I ever heard =)

[kreep182]

@lean84 wow, me too !!!!! eversince i listened to the first note on the first song (FRAIL) i fell in love with it, and the rest of the album just kept flowing through my ears. its really hard to explain how much i love the album. i think its the best ever!!!. sometimes i think that it wasnt written by humans. it was dropped off by ALIENS when they came to MEASURE OUR PLANET.... (apparently it was too small for them)

[kreep182]

@TheMetalHeadGr There is NO WAY Anneke would have been better off in any other band than The Gathering, specially some hardcore heavy metal band that plays stupid power chords all along. it would have been a waiste(NO OFFENSE).The Gathering were always about MUSIC and not metal.but, you can always listen to Mandylion, and Nighttime Birds for a heavier sound.

[jatan616]

@kreep182 from the first couple minutes of the song all I hear is "stupid power chords" so wow....the same riff over and over and over....

[Zarggg]

@jatan616 From the first couple words of the comment, all I see is "stupid YouTube comment detractor". So wow, the same drivel over and over. (Seriously, if you don't like this music, go elsewhere.)

[lamentate07]

I like this song more than i did back when it was released, but it does stand out in an obvious way on How To Measure A Planet. it was clearly meant to be the pop breakthrough, and it's a pretty ordinary song on an otherwise great record.

in my opinion anyway.

[hamhead4]

i think they overdid it on the glitter on her eyes. She's blinking her eyeballs out...

[furakkueroru]

She is super hot!

[furakkueroru]

Sitting in a chair getting your dreads done!

[msjany23]

i dont like the song

i like she ^^

[keylllogdark]

agree///...

[DizzleHell]

there is not one girl in the US that can sing like this..... period!!! opps - definition of period - Interval of time

[minazmorgul]

Crazy :)

[AnnieKruz]

lame

[hellonearth069]

hot girls who can sing.... hot, girls with dreads... super hot, chicks who are in rock bands.... mega super hot

[TheChaosman221]

her make up is awesome

[blackisntdarkenough]

Sounds like alanis morrisette

[grassieb]

@blackisntdarkenough Alanis? Alanis makes you want to chew your wrists off!! This is at least upbeat and happy!

[amirprog]

@blackisntdarkenough  alanis morrisette can only dream.

[czarnoszary]

Sounds pretty Jethro Tull-like for me... Meaning good:)

[christl12]

Anneke and Cristina Scabbia are the only female singers that can be respected, especially when compared to that In This Moment chick

[tammysyl]

@christl12 101 per cent true , all you say!

[funkinthechili]

God this takes me back to my college days...I love the nostalgia that music invokes. There's nothing like it

[BlackestEyes1963]

Fantastic song, even more fantastic vid. GORGEOUS!!!

[GuyWithALife502]

ok are these bands (even the ones in the suggestions) euro bands

[jeempke88]

If she would get rid off the dreads it would be an awesome girl. Now, she's kinda weird. Like the song though.

[Zwepmeister]

@jeempke88 Don't worry about the dreads that was eleven years ago.. :)

[keylllogdark]

the gathering is for me my life...

[starmaiden26]

I personally think a white chick with dreads is sexy. Though I like her better with red hair....but thats just because I love Redheads!

[cristhoferger]

me encantan los ojos de esta mina

[Microkosmika]

Muchisimos recuerdos de mi año en Conce! =)

[LITTLE666GOATWHORE]

Chicks with dreads,not attractive. Alright song but i thought i would like thus band more

[queg]

The Abba of metal..

[Solitudinis]

@queg Don't act like that! They had the courage to surpass the genre they, with others of course, started and show several other influences. They're a great band that should be more known!!!

[ComaLies225]

@Solitudinis Not a bad thing, ABBA makes decent dance music with substance. That seems to be lacking in today's pop/dance music. The good thing about the Gathering is that they're not a cookie cutter band. They take influence from other genres and weren't afraid to change/experiment.

[TheMoDonKey]

Can someone please find me her address or email or number !?! hehe...she is great...good singer with great voice .. Fantastic 'The Gathering'

[happyhead64]

Oh man, this is my FAVORITE song by The Gathering......just awesome!!!

[puacino2]

Straordinaria canzone e stupendo video! The Gathering rocks!

[xion420]

just cuz she is purdy doesnt make it good

[co1dn3zz]

@xion420 intelligent comments on youtube are not permitted, please resend your post, thank you in advance. :)

[resingurl]

eye glitter is evil not sure how she handled that ;P but awesome song awesome vid. ;P im normaly more into the gruff hard hittin. but once in awhile songs like this or bands persay are needed even for me ;p

[acerero4ever]

this is crap compared to the first albums

[altoritger]

yeah fight ww3 on youtube... pls comment to the music damn it...

realy like it XD but like metal better..my opinion see jah, hugs :')

[sethy1]

@jm4D1 you clearly don't exist in this plane of reality. But I don't know you. Cheers.

[Modey3]

I can't believe this song is over 10 years old! I remember listening to this band in college; it's some of the most relaxing rock outside of Pink Floyd.

[sethy1]

@jm4D1 thanks for reinforcing my statement

[catacalisma]

Wow this song is shit. The fuck was Century Media thinking.

[sethy1]

@jm4D1 I went on your channel and you're obviously borderline retarded. It's okay little one.

[tarantinno007]

wooooooaaaooooaaaooao,genial

[MHUES1992]

Best ever. Is this video directed by John Millerman?

[LILITHFAIR1973]

Very good, only Anneke's hairstyle make this video look "dated". Reminds me of the good old days when I still had enough money to pay a 30,000-euro joyride on a MiG-25 Foxbat to 119,000 feet.

[jukkisman74]

GOna miss anneke's voice

[MaydenGullmort]

So stupid song

[fernandog07]

I used to love hearing this song while playing starcraft back in the day.. pff great memories!

[kreep182]

Througout listening to the songs on the album, I LITERALLY LIVED IN OUTER SPACE. i really believe that this band is one of the top 5 greatest bands of all time. i dont think i will connect with any other music the way i did with this band's albums. Does anyone else think so too ?

[TrickAssassins]

Absolutely Agree!! this band is experimenting with brilliant vocal melodies that are non traditional and very powerful, Flat out they are very fearless as they venture out into the Universe of uncharted unique music! It makes no sense to me that band like this is not HUGE ?!?! They had an amazingly talented beautiful singer and one of kind music!! BUT the masses like chicken feed bland music...Oh well I renewed when I hear musicians out there still have integrity!!...Thank god Rush made it!!

[Adastra14]

Thank you for this song The Gathering :D

[NAVUKOBB1]

Anneke van Giersbergen is probably sitting on a goldmine. Someday, Richard Branson will pay her and the rest of The Gathering tons of money just to use this song to promote space tourism.

[furakkueroru]

@NAVUKOBB1 No shes sitting on a chair!

[VAVESSAU235]

Anneke - the quintessential Dütch girl. If she ever did try to put on a Soviet-era partial-pressure suit at the end of this video, does it make this more eerily resemble that of the "independent film" directed by John Millerman that starred Silvia Saint that the video already does? Still, I love this.

[RINGOSR90]

Anneke should have put on a Soviet-era partial-pressure suit at the end of this video - the kind often mistaken as S&M Bondage gear by anyone clueless about aviation medicine. Still, one of the best in my personal Top Ten list.

[KubometrKrovi]

Красавица и умница!

[Vercigentorix21]

My love Anneke van Giersbergen

[MadPHiL76]

best female vocal ever!

[TheUndert0ker]

spaaace camp

[DulcedoIneffabilis]

Anneke looks lovely in the state she's in XD

[showman80]

una de las voces màs hipnòticas que he escuchado... mi grupo favorito!
