the beginnning reminds me of a movie where a werewolf transforms. xDD

[Dollishcore]

Gila kali!! siooooooooooooot! i love this band. <3333

[Mattiniord]

Listen carefully at the beginning and in the background you will hear Winston Churchills speech, the first he made as Prime Minister, having taken over from Neville Chamberlain. He return later...

It is about the second world war and how people and government ignored the rise of Hitler and his ideas how, in the spring of 1940 it looked lite they would swallow Europe.

Churchill was one of the few that early on understood what was going on, but few listened, until the writing was on the wall.

[Froglet042]

in the middle where u can hear him too.

the problem is all i can think of when I hear him talking is armstrong and miller with the "we will get em well bad on our mobiles and that"

[keybladerookie]

I diddnt know the guy talking in the background was Winston Churchill...

[viraticwars]

It was Churchill in the background?! Dang. This group is seriously awesome.

[keybladerookie]

It is RIGHT ON!

[lieka0]

ff voor de nederlanders die dit nog niet weten (je weet maar nooit ;))

sanctus espiritus = heilige geest :D

sanctus espiritus redeem us from our solemn hour!! Te goed nummer :D:D Love them <3

[jootoobersters]

sanctus espiritus is latin for holy spirit, and espiritu santo in spanish. i'm just saying. ☺

[TOKYOMOTEL1981]

Within Temptation è UNA MUSICA CELESTIALE

[rainboworanges]

what's with the tokyo motel? making fun of tokio hotel? if you are, i laugh hard. if ur not, i still laugh hard.

This is the best song ever, i love it so much. i can listen to it for hours and not get sick of it.

[ciwwafloves]

i heard a misheard lyrics thing with this song in it...

"zapdos, hey, spirit toes."

now that one listens to the song, it's very close.

but it's a good song! =]

[tyler988]

tehe! :)

[cameragirl7]

i must admit, that made me lol.

Love the song, but that was quite funny.

[adenosardenii]

i just started listening to this band tonight, and wow! this is the music i've been looking for, and they are quickly becoming my favorite band (even beating out Alter Bridge, and that's saying something!)

[youtubmoses]

This band is definetly better then Evanescance, and that might be a fact.

[JustMe8531]

Excuse me but screw you ^^

Equal? yeah sure whatever :P

[susiesquirt]

What does the lyrics mean? I can't figure them out.

[grey41]

santos espiritos..saints and spirits..

[DirkjeA]

sanctus espiritus: Holy spirit

redeem us from our solemn hour!!

[WychungX]

i know, especially this song, the louder it is, the better

[iseverythingalie]

I figured out that if you don't like Within Temptation you're not listening to it loud enough. Seriously, you don't even have to pay attention to the lyrics if you don't want to, just make it absurdly loud and it will motivate the sh*t out of you.

[withintemptationrock]

best song ever!

[cobradude09]

love this song and angels is another good song aswell

[rapidtechno]

this song touched my heart

[xemoskatergrlx]

[08juno80]

[ojtejada]

I couldn't agree more! Whatever they are... THEY ARE THE BEST!

[BigBossCP]

Thank you...

[GhostOfOpera]

No need to argue o.o Think that not all people like this kind of music ok? Dont get mad ^^

[winterXphoenix]

then again i hate this music but theres something about this band i love... their song "somewhere" is something else.... go listen to it..

[08juno80]

hahaah srry about that message i sent you i wasnt trying to be mean, im on my period. lol jkjkjk.=)

[MoonIMover]

Well-said!

[08juno80]

well thank you.

[Tomovanlaanen]

Um... who honestly cares what genre it is? Every band is different. You either like a song or you dont. But the genre shouldn't influence your opinion of a song. So its not really a big deal, genre is only a lable. Not an accurate description.

[Evanka27]

I like this song... I LOVE Within Temptation and I LOVE Evanescence.

[merkits]

Sanctus Espiritus means holy spirit in latin

[nightdarkangel7227]

[lkm12344321]

wooooah!

this is soooo cool! aww i want it!

well burn bitch cause i know this song:P

[IAreYogiBear]

I only just realized, you can hear Robert in the background when they sing "Sanctus Espiritus".

[Lilitush]

Is that Robert, isn't it bits of sound from World War II videos?

I think it's bits from videos because you also hear gunshots ;)

[Oblivion4246]

I just heard this song today and it made me look into them, and there awsome.

[laraishere]

Too good to be true *__*

[SandVeil1]

*swoon*

[DuchessAliana]

This song is amazing. I can't stop listening to it.

[obamamaniac42]

is the chatter at the beginning of hte song mormal?

[darkgard3n]

Yeah its in the song. they say:

("I speak to you for the first time as Prime Minister in a solemn hour for the life of our country")

[dairisse]

When i heard it, Churchil suddenly came up on my mind ... can someone confirm that? There is a lot more words told during this song about germans so i guess it must be Churchil

[DreadNought0255]

Yep, it uses clips from one of Churchill's radio speeches to the British people. I don't know which speech though, wiki the song and you might find out.

[mijakoko]

like what???

[agnoises]

love this song :)<3

[FuckAboutIt]

Same here ^^

[IIEONII]

when there are alot of people singing in this song, what is that called? ex. it sounds like what they play for bits at a time on the mall cop commercial.. what is that style of music called? if even is one. idk. love this song though

[SJ006]

its called a roman cavalry chior. lol, no its not mf. im kidiing,sry, im tipsy....

[IIEONII]

thank you thank you!!

[SJ006]

i wasnt serious. that was bs i told u, just somthing i heard...

[mlim23]

the mall cop commercail is called, either O fortuna, Or requiam of a dream

[kipandvixi]

omg are you serious its obviously O fortuna! Requiem for a dream sounds nothing like O fortuna, though both epically awesome ther so different sheesh!

[mlim23]

epic

[muslim9000000]

THIS ROCKS ON ADVENTURE QUEST

[iwanttobestronger1]

How can you prove that?

[savrils]

[IcedEarth100]

[jazmindragona16]

awesome song

[hellswings]

this song makes sense if u listen to it. santos is holy and espiritus is spirit, so the song means holy spirit save us from war and destruction...

[BigBossCP]

In that case...AWESOMELY BADASS!!!

[WychungX]

i just said that dude.....

[matt12526]

Its Sanctus Espiritus, and thats pretty awesome!!!

[WychungX]

I think "espiritus" is latin for spirit, which would make sense if "sanctus" means holy.

It makes the lyrics sound like a cry for help to God, asking to be saved from the pain and destruction of war.

\

hence churchill talking in the background.

[WychungX]

no like, that in junction with the

"redeem us from our solemn hour"

[WychungX]

"Santos Espiritus" means a cry to god.... how the fuck is that Gothic... moron

[almafiina]

It´s "Sanctus", no "Santos"

[BigBossCP]

LOL! Agreed! (with WychungX) It's not gothic! It has to do with something about WWII, or war, or something like that! But nonetheless, this song still kicks so much ass!

It's EPIC and BADASS!!!

**********

[WychungX]

ahh, sorry wasnt too sure, my bad.(almafiina)

and yes Boss, songs fuckin DOPE

[thomguls]

What the fuck? Sanctus Espiritus doens't mean that at all! It means Holy ghost/spirit! Get your religion knowledge together laddie!

[BigBossCP]

Wait!? But isn't there a difference between "Sanctus Espiritus" and "Santos Espiritu"!? Because I know, and you're right, that "Santos Espiritu" does mean holy spirit. But, I'm not sure if "Sanctus Espiritus" means something slightly different or that it's just Latin for the same thing. I'm not arguing, I just want to make sure if they are different or the same. So yeah...(!?)

[thomguls]

I do agree with the fact that minor differences in latin can lead to monumental misunderstandings! :P My friend takes latin in school, but to refer to an earlier comment, Sanctus Espiritus in itself isn't a cry to God, but is used as a part of a sentence in this song. And I do belive that it is written Sanctus Espiritus not Santos Espiritu, and that the interpretation "Santos Espiritu" is a personal understanding of a language one does not know. But I suppose WT has got their grammar right eh?;P

[BigBossCP]

No, I KNOW what it means! That wasn't my problem; that was someone else's. I know and speak spanish(I'm latino). I just wasn't sure if "Sanctus Espiritus" and "santos espiritu" were the same/different. But, now I know! And "Sanctus Espiritus redeem us from our solemn hour"...I know the lyrics and their meanings...that was also someone else's concern, not mine. So I got THAT shit down!

And like I said before, at the end, this song still kicks ass and so do WT! So yeah...I get it!

[meiomestesso]

how can you say that?i understand that everyone has they deifferent prefences..but the lyrics of this song is amazing!(sorry for my bad english...i'm italianXD)

[BigBossCP]

What are you talking about!? Say what!? I wasn't offending anybody nor saying anything bad about WT/this song. I LOVE them! I was replying to someone else about the whole"what does "Sanctus Espiritus" mean" thingymajiger. So I think there's a misunderstanding because there's NO WAY I was making or intending to make fun or insult someone's preference! I swear, but Youtube's replying system is pretty confusing and stupid...they should fix it up! So now, your reply confused me; not sure why...(?)

[bballkid415]

Wow, it would be awesome if you blasted the speakers up at high volume

[82108026]

love it

[AndyBling44]

this is so gothic song but its nice

[NBH009]

how is a song about the holy spirit fucking gothic?

[matt12526]

How the fuck is it gothic???????

[xsk8erlifezx]

its gothical metal

[matt12526]

No. No it's not.

[BigBossCP]

I agree with matt12526; this isn't gothic, it's SYMPHONIC METAL/ROCK! The stupid media (thank you assholes), have been LABELING WT as GOTHIC, EVEN THOUGH Sharon and the rest of the guys have ALREADY told them that they aren't! They, personally, consider themselves as Symphonic! I'm telling you all though, WT should honestly BE its OWN genre, so that way, people can stop arguing over this!

[vannoyla16]

awesome

[ninagoth]

this is a nice song...maybe my fav from WT:)

[SquallLion90]

My favorite song :D

[BigBossCP]

Hey people, don't argue! No one's wrong and no one's correct! But you know what IS REAL and 100% CERTAIN, without ANY DOUBTS!?...

WITHIN TEMPTATION!!!

They're REAL!

They're AWESOME!

Their songs are the SHIT!

Their videos are COOL!

EVERYTHING about them is EPIC and BADASS!

So actually, I think, wait...nevermind, I KNOW, I won this argument because who's going to disagree with this!? NOBODY!!!

LOL! ;P

[czekolada101]

I LOVE THIS!

[horsepeni5]

for some reason this song makes me feel at home and i am confused

[matrixkbh1987]

I think they are a very spirituality Band and i dont think they are a religios band.:)

[metalatheist]

i don't think that Within Temptation is a Christian band or of any religion, but i so think that they do touch themes of spirituality, not necessarily religion. spirituality and religion are different.

[LissYvy]

it is my second favorite song from within temptation:)

[gothikdolly]

hermosa ^^

[Ricardo30stm]

geil

[joshua4797]

till now this song is still famous!!!

[CatButt7]

mmmmmm

loovvvvveeee this song

TYSM for putting this up

=D

[NBH009]

im mostly a rap/hip hop guy and this song caught my attention a lot

[erochan123]

<333 I love this song... and this band

[IncuboGaby]

are WT a Christian band?

[DjShploot]

This is friggin awesome!

[EdwardElric219]

This song was in my dream last night. Like, perfect lyrics and everything. O_o I don't even own it.

[jewelsandiamonds]

first of, this is one of my fav songs! but, i dont think people go 2 youtube to watch the same picture about 5 mins, people go to youtube to watch 70 pics(or so) per second, ANYWAY, thx 4 posting that... "video"^^

[prayer4521]

band <3

song <3

[bettazor]

this band is fucking amazing!!!

[PinkSpidermonkeys]

ilovethissong.

[grandace2]

this song is awesome....its annoying to see and hear people talk about satanic this satanic that...i dont give a damn what people think on that subject...i sorta got used to it...i dont go to church im uncomfortable in church cause i dont believe in rules in how you worship i dont see why they're there...but people automactically think that im some devil worshiper because of that...its stupid really.

This is my fave song by within temptations.

[p3bq]

I agree. I still go to church and am quite comfortable there, but people tend to brand things they think are bad with labels like "satanic" it annoys me.

[KassidyandKevin]

im not saying your a devil worshiper, but wouldnt it be nice to have gods grace? You'll live life to the fullest, and he'll give you blessings everyday that you would never get if you didnt believe in him and ask him into your heart.

[SweetGothicPrincess]

God gives you nothing except unanswered prayers and hard tims, such as Death, and plauges(thinking of Exodus). God is a myth. Nothing happens when you die.You rot in the ground until the end of time. God will not come. We've been waiting for centries and it is about time for us to wake up and realize that we are waiting on a legend.Those who do not believe in him,think sense.The only thing he will do in your heart is rip it apart and give you false hope. That's all Im going to say on the topic

[SJ006]

someone offers themselves a lot of hope

[SweetGothicPrincess]

I don't need hope. I just need a life to live, and since I have one, Im happy.

[SJ006]

and wats ur so called life? i know u feel empty. maybe u should give other things a chance. ur emo right? im sure u would agree that the world offers nothing more than pain

[SweetGothicPrincess]

You did not just call me emo. It's goth, not emo. Don't get those mixed up again.And I gave god a chance. And I realize that he is nothing. Nothing to offer me, you or other fools who believe in him. I do not care about going to heaven or hell. I just wanna live in this one life I get.

[broadwaybrendan]

i do value your opinion, and i honestly dont care what people believe but can you please be the bigger person in your argument and not insult people?

[SweetGothicPrincess]

Sorry. Sometimes I get carried away in my argument. Permission to go back under my rock now?

[broadwaybrendan]

lmao its totally fine. i do the same thing. WOO GO PEOPLE WITH TEMPERS!!! lol

[SweetGothicPrincess]

LOL

[Bitten8025]

I love this song, its amazing.

[Sharingonsandninja]

... A bit strange:S Love the beginning thoughXD

[feanor921]

sontos espirtus means holy spirit in latin lolz and that she's asking the holy spirit to deliver hummanity from its "Solemn Hour",

now does that clear up some stuff and no she is not chanting to the devil lol just because its latin :P

[scygon344]

i knew it was a latin preyer but did not know what it ment and she is right humanity is insaine and needs saveing.

[Sonjayu]

Yeah, I agree with you.

It's funny connecting Latin to "calling the devil", huh!

BTW, it's santus espirirus.....

[luismaria12]

i know right its holy spirit not holy devil!!!!

[UltimaWave]

Listen to this in High Quality. Type &fmt=18 after the url and refresh the page. It actually has surround sound (easier heard with headphones). Plus, the sound quality is better.

[Mekaniac]

I agree, thank you.

[zenon574]

no shes saying that this world is made up of sanity and its all around us but no one can change that because not everyone would agree
