Versailles - Silent Knight (Live)

[StricknSTW]

This band is wonderful, but I can't stand the way Teru or Jasmine look.

[Rimedore]

Masterpiece...

[ronin27k]

this is an example of excellent musicianship!

simply awesome!

[GoatBorn]

Fantastic performance.

[MrShinnigami]

HIZAK!

[RAYNORX215WEON]

megustaria tocar la gitarra como teru es supere jenial como taca y tambien como hizaki seria super emosionanate

[KarKuranosuke]

4:43-5:08 Jasmine's bass so beautiful & 儚い....

I wiped away the tears with my sleeve....

[hederamezzo]

Versailles's live performance is always great

[lawabdi]

They haven't keyboarder?

hate samplers like that!

Nice guitar tho!

[GoodFellaAtxSS44]

they sound like dragonforce

[TERUKlCHl]

@GoodFellaAtxSS44 No they don't.

[GoodFellaAtxSS44]

@TERUKlCHl NOT completely...but yeah they do

[Kelvinrps]

@GoodFellaAtxSS44 no

[QuicKsteR6]

@GoodFellaAtxSS44 Not even close. If anything, more like Arch Enemy's earlier, slower tracks. The beginning solo reminds me mostly of the Bridge of Destiny outro.

[TheGreatNinjaRuthie]

i always cry when i listen to this.....its just too amazing.....i dunno how a human being could compose something so *lacks words for how amazing it is* Versailles are angels.....R.I.P Jasmine You eternal member ♥♥♥♥

[zodiachkmetal]

1:32 haha ~

[FerraraLolyta]

Man, i miss Jasmine so much!!!! TT-TT

[balmung1992]

cant wait to see them in london this year, just saw x-japan and they blew my expectaions a way. Hopefully Versailles are the same.

[RimaKouro]

I'm dying... how am I supposed to survive the concert?!

[kinguchihasasuke]

Yuki looks exhausted

[danigreta]

El vocabulario es tan limitado para poder describir lo que me provoca esta rolita.,..

[FLHBBV]

Yuki is SOOOOOO hawt at the back stage!!! Love him so much!!! ^^ Teru and Hizaki was awesome at the guitars as well!!! Jasmine is beautiful as always!! Love Versailles~~~!!! ^^

[MJTERU7]

Teru is incredible!!! The others too of course!! ^_^' But Teru...... Waouh!

[ReazonSama]

fuckind love bass line. so fucking deep. JASMINE ! ! !

[totchierollify]

all of them was awesome! Teru, Hizaki, Jasmine YOU, and Yuki!!!

[bittersweetangel1]

Teru's solo was awesome!

[wecameasjohnens]

wow that girl knows how to shred that guitar! rock on!

[sunaookami]

@wecameasjohnens You mean guy?

[InfinityWise]

@sunaookami I wouldnt even care if he taught me to play guitar... :|

[KittensHellfire]

@wecameasjohnens There are no girls in versailles

[sickninjamonkey]

@wecameasjohnens That's a guy. Welcome to visual kei. Cheers, mate. XD

[wecameasjohnens]

@sickninjamonkey visual kei?

[sickninjamonkey]

@wecameasjohnens Visual kei: The japanese genre of metal and rock music populated pretty much only by japanese men who look like women. The girl shredding that guitar would be one of the especially feminime of these artists. XD

[wecameasjohnens]

@sickninjamonkey why do they do that to me :`(

[jonathanbriceno]

@wecameasjohnens "that girl" is a guy ._.

[wecameasjohnens]

@jonathanbriceno japanese ppl........ugh so strange 

[HayakawaShoutarou98]

うぽつ

[IncomprisRose]

Amazing guitar solo *w*

[loawdlahsdad]

I just love the double sweep picking and not to mention the bass R I P JASMINE YOU

[FullmetalAlcheemist]

Why do they yell "Miyavi" at the beginning? .-.

[xPattinsonPaparazzi]

they're music-ninjas. D:

they're so fucking good, it fascinates me every time...

[freemason1206]

和製RACER-X!!!!

[ZeroYuuki501]

No one had ever played such good music in a live concert! VERSAILLES IS THE BEST! 

[xPattinsonPaparazzi]

Yuki is a fucking Ninja when playing the drums. :)

[GEO2DOPE]

Fuckin sweet visual Kei is bomb I don't care if it's guys it's fuckin awesome music fuck rob halford is gay but I still respect him and love his music and that's the same for visual kei R I P JASMINE YOU

[TheGreatNinjaRuthie]

hearing the bass in this just makes me cry.....

[joelpizzaguy]

dragon force meets a drag queen parade

[Skriptid]

Versailles, second to none in the world... all time.

[karentp28]

op la guitarra de hizaki se escucha fabulosa!!!

[brizelda242]

I think Versailles is one of the best if not the best jrock band in our time

[GoatBorn]

@brizelda242 Dir en Grey? 

[Rubyiris]

@GoatBorn Dir en Grey is garbage. End of story.

[Rubyiris]

@brizelda242 This isn't jrock. this is Symphonic/Neo-Classical Power Metal. Them being Japanese, or from any other region in the world is irrelevant.

Most "Jrock" is hard rock, or shoegaze.

[ReazonSama]

1:31 - 1:48 my ears are raped by that sexiness.

[nomore875]

wow. Amazing skills. they sound so clean when they play, plus the sweeping harmonies......AMAZING!!!!!!!!­!

[Rorroywea]

4:23 - 4:43 epic

[tarasirion]

jasmines bass sounds so perfect ^_^

[VersaillesFanForLife]

@hreika I agree! Nobody ever seems to give Yuki enough credit. The band would not exist without him! Without his expert drumming skills, Versailles just wouldn't be as awesome as they are.

[preliatorfit]

I don't care what's under the get up, this was epic!

[yukkextatsu]

does anyone know which album or single is this song from?

[jizzo225]

@yukkextatsu its from the EP Prince and Princess

[yukkextatsu]

@jizzo225 thanks a lot

[killscott1988]

great live band. just great!

[arsnel366]

I dont get it why people call everything gay it makes me so mad Its like saying Straight or your so straight

[sikaloolala]

i heard the man scream "HIZAKI!!"

0..0

[ReazonSama]

@sikaloolala

maybe thaw was just too horny fangirl :D

[eggiroth]

I just can't get over how amazing Versailles are! Hizaki is so beautiful, he takes my breath away. Not to mention the talent they're blessed with, it's incredible! They are without a doubt one of the greatest VK bands out there. Much, much love!

[hreika]

Yuki is so underrated! D:

[AriaAsacura]

@hreika I saw them live a few months back, I was just astonished at how well Yuki plays <33

[Schamottriese]

@hreika Not for me. He is one of my top 3 favorite Drummers. Skill, speed, inovation, knowledge. But that counts for every member in Versailles.

[ImChMeister]

son todos putos Dios miooo

[PichanDaisuki]

they're freakin' amazing

[annemyashea]

This is the best live version thanks for putting this up.

[DBSK4everinmyheart]

versailles es una amor de banda... me encanta teru

[DBSK4everinmyheart]

@hiphop2318 idiota

[Vortex289]

@hiphop2318 The ones who weep are the ones who bark....

[renni211]

@hiphop2318 "gay" but with REALY NICE music ^^

but every guy who said hizaki isnt hot is not a guy

[ReazonSama]

@renni211

Same way for girls. Who said HIZAKI isn't sexy is not a girl.

[painnegat]

@hiphop2318 eres una perra

[clarita215]

i love you versailles

[fon703]

ジャスミン様,,,,,

[JapanTeru]

[Erigsa]

Amazing! Gave me shivers... :) Just gotta love theyr music.

[HopeXDesteny]

Hizaki -sama's look and guitar playing skills always makes me drivel =^.^=

[tracylo1995628]

Teru-sama...u are too sexy...(my nose is bleeding

[Roretsuo]

Chateau de Versailles i <3 this live

[furanchizoku]

q linduuuu!!!!!!

[RodrigoKato2]

I think is impossible to Hizaki be a men

[foxinsocks506]

@RodrigoKato2 Well yes, it's impossible for anyone to be 'a men.' Though if you meant 'a man,' then yes, Hizaki is a man.

[theblacksal]

I want to marry the man in red, he's hot!

[xxStryDerBuRnxx]

This music is killing me......

[sweetXricerockets]

So is Silent Knight only an instrumental song? Cuz the music is great, i'm just wondering if there was any singing to it. either way it's still great!

[cdoherty1290]

@sweetXricerockets yes, its instrumental

[sweetXricerockets]

@cdoherty1290 ok thanks!

[DOTTomtom]

simple genius

[sunaookami]

Who are the three that hit thumbs down? I hope those were accidents. I can't see why anyone would dislike this.

[UchihaBrotherz]

Jasmine was so hot!

[loung747]

@UchihaBrotherz as long we buy their cd's they can keep making great songs ^^

[datto240z]

FUK YEA! wow no kamijo

[SissiStrakovinch]

they're pretty GOOOOOOOOD! *--* Lovely faces and clothes!

[reitaisthebest]

2:25 teru!! O.O (without words)

[frozenX207]

amazing guitar solos period!

[funoke]

<3<3<3 I just love them more than I can say!

[Death1Ikki]

JASMINEYOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!

[rayito2005]

Muy talentosos y además muy guapos los muchachos un deleite a la pupila *¬*

[Roretsuo]

it will never be the same without Jasmine

We Miss You

I Hope You Are Happy,Where You Are Now

[davyro66]

im 40yrs old & i discovered versailles about 6 months ago,ive not heard better musicians,never in a million years did i ever think i'd get into a Japanese band,but these blow me away & "Zombie" would be a hit anywhere in the world

[BabylonianViper]

Fabulous stuff. They really are stunning live. Now I'll have to see if I can find anywhere to buy the dvd from.

[matxt]

Sounds kinda like HGP Aphrodite at 4:00

[Trezveil]

Its music there's no way to avoid re using a few things every now and then unless you completely switch genre's :P

[Twiggyay]

i hate too say it, but from 3:40 Teru rips off 17th century chicken picking by Cris impellitteri, but i still love him anyway...=3

[Ikkin93107]

@Twiggyay Teru thinks up his own melodies, he wouldn't copy I think. But Cris Impellitteri is Teru's idol though :)

[Twiggyay]

@Ikkin93107 well, i didn`t mean he copied it, but it`s very similar, and i am no ta Teru-hater, look at my user pic...

[Ikkin93107]

@Twiggyay I didn't mean it that way. it's not that bad if it's alike (CHRIS ROCKS) And you couldn't hate Teru, he's too cute for that <3 XD

[Ikkin93107]

@Twiggyay Btw, he couldn't have copied it (Hizaki wrote the music for Silent Knight XD)

[Twiggyay]

@Ikkin93107 I know, but i didn`t say they copied it, but it`s clearly that they were inspired by it.

[UchihaBrotherz]

. . . (lost for words - too amazed)

[maxiimov]

I think Teru plays more fast and dificult solos but hizaki plays more melodicus solos..

[GravityProductionz]

absolutely incredible live, music definitely at its best

[xXVampiricHeartsXx]

wonderful! I love this song! Both Hizaki & Teru are great guitarists. And on the debate about who's lead - both are. Seriously, when does rythm get a solo! <3 Teru the most, he's so cute! <3 VERSAILLES! Simply an amazing band!

[Nokutetsu]

Rhythm guitarists get the solos for the songs they write. Teru does the solo's for the songs he writes, and Hizaki does the solos for the songs everyone else wrote. So...technically...Hizaki -is- lead.

[hinatapatricia]

woww!! kamii!!

veryyy woo!!!

the best....

[MsRavenheart1]

Guys, I'm gonna have to agree with the non-suicidal theory. Jasmine You just did not seem like a person to commit suicide. On the blog, it does talk about his final days and since it comes from the band and not from the newspaper, it makes more sense, Perhaps the blogs are biased, but to write Jasmine You off as a "suicide" without any extreme evidence seems disrespectful to his legacy as the awesome musician and person he was. R.I.P.

[Rikuzue]

Secondly, care to exspand on how Hizaki is "egolistic" Also,about their styles, you can't compare two different playing styles and say one is a better. Hizaki's music is more influenced by classical composers. Thus, making a more melodious sounding style. As for Teru, he by all means is a metal head. So, metal being his biggest influence hes going to go for more of a fast sweeping type of soloing. Hizakis playing style is just slower than Terus, doesnt make it robotic.

[theothersg2727]

@Rikuzue i completely agree with you about their style their heavy use of the harmonic minor scale is one of the coolest sounding things to ever come out of japan i just hate how its abused by death metal here in america

[Rikuzue]

@purplekestral

So...by saying that You-san committed suicide you basically saying what his family wrote on his blog about his final days were all lies? Not to mention if you read the bands blogs...get this...get this...Jasmine was the one who was always making puns and joking around. Such a typical trait of a person suffering from suicidal thoughts, eh? As for never smiling until he in big gowns then whats with the picture of him with Teru smiling like an idiot while in just a cut-sew?

[purplekestral]

OK. Genecially Jasmine is male, but is transgendered & was starting hormone therepy. My friends in Japan have sent me newspaper articals that state this & the fact she committed sucide. If Japan is accepting this, why is it a big deal? Welcome to reality!

[purplekestral]

Check out the Japanese newspapers. Why would they lie & say she committed sucide? It helps to be able to read Japanese, I grew up there as a child cuz my father was a goverment/civillian employee. I know my way around there, read their newspapers plus have many friends who communicated this to me. She wasn't the only musician to commit sucide last year. Sorry...

[carlosperalestv]

@purplekestral

ummm

dude good point but just to warn you there all guys

[artemiss07]

Ok first off Jasmine didnt commite suicide ppl say he was in an car accident or he was extremely sick. Next teru and hizaki are equally good soloist/gutairist. So yeah ech ones guitar has an odd sound but really those fingers go like butter on the gutiar! I have a fondment of teru not because of his skills but other stuff but really without eachother they wouldnt sound as empowering right?! ~R.I.P. Jasmine Yuu sleep my prince~***

[purplekestral]

I think Teru is better than Hizaki. He doesn't get to show his talents as often, plus I feel Hizaki sounds robitic, where Teru's music comes from his heart & he is nowhere as egotistical as Hizaki.

Now to Jasmine. Watching older clips of her, the multiple facial she has gone thru to not look Japanese, but to feminize her. She never smiles behind those big shades, wearing fur coats, new cars, but she isn't happy until she dresses in beautiful gowns- then she smiles. She commited sucide.

[522loki]

@purplekestral

You know Jasmine is a GUY, right? And, Jasmine definetley didn't commit suicide. Read about how he spent his final days on the band's MySpace. He was very sick prior to his passing.

:D

[AznFMian123]

Is one of the guitarists a girl? WTF can't tell the difference.

[kotekotekitty]

none are girls ¬.¬`

[Falc45]

@AznFMian123

They're all guys.

[jezusolis]

hizaki looks old in this vid XD

[zanozuke7]

beautiful

[arsnel366]

Well hizaki and teru have an equal amount of solos BUT teru has faster ones his guitar has an zzzrr sound to it haha but hizaki has great solos as well fast to so i think they are even but i like teru's solos beter cause the sound of his guitar.

[EmoBeh]

teru's solos aren't actually faster but because he sweeps it makes it sounds like its faster but i agree that they are both even

[kotekotekitty]

yeh teru's guitar sounds sooooo perfect for this music

[jilliane23]

kamijo is leads better than teru and hizaki..

[davyro66]

Hizaki is already a legend,i hav'nt seen a better lead yet

[cosplaykid07]

Anyone know who substituted Jasmine??

(RIP Jasmine You T___T)

[ElMoldePerfecto]

Has any one else noticed that Teru usually has a longer and more complicated solo than hizaki? TO be honest i consider hm the lead more than Hizaki

[Yumypop]

@ElMoldePerfecto

It is true that in Versailles Teru's solo's are more complicated than Hizaki's

but did you hear Hizaki's solo's for Hizaki Grace Project they are just as complicated or sometimes even more complicated,

so it's not that Hizaki can't do complicated solo's

[dacheesemista]

@ElMoldePerfecto I tend to consider them as equal parts, rather than one or other being a lead.

[Unyurin]

I love this song, is so cute T_T

[chocobo138vidoll]

I  LOVE THIS

[GradyLWilliams]

IMO Teru is fater than Hizaki, but Hizaki has more elegance to his play

[HeatWaveDos]

faster* ?

[Jonnymelonzx]

@GradyLWilliams

Teru is so not fat !

[GradyLWilliams]

omg faster. dammit

[GradyLWilliams]

i would know fat cuz i is grande. plus i was talking about their playing .....

[muzicalprodigy]

Words cannot describe how envious I am of that crowd, seeing Versailles (complete with Jasmine) play in front of me would be the greastest experience in the world in my opinion. Kudos Versailles, YOU ARE THE BEST <3 ^^

[lkustaka]

I really miss Jasmine You :'< He was so talented and pretty.

[Twiggyay]

i think that if you think that they are hot, it is`nt gay, if you tought girls looking like boys where hot, then you are gay, but guys looking totally like girls, that is not gay.

Hizaki is super-pretty, (i`m a guy):3

[LPbest4ever]

lol u r right man ^^. Hizaki isn't super pretty but damn cute XD ( i'm a guy too ) ^^

[GawdImHungry]

Hizaki's hair bump has gotten bigger.

[naokoryo]

Hizaki & Teru's Rlz 8D <333

[metalgod500]

Teru's legs make me hot. =)

[ramy2702]

i hope ur not a guy

[metalgod500]

Yes I am a guy, and Teru's legs still make me hot. =P

[tgy891]

@metalgod500 Don't worry, I'm a guy too and I completely agree, hehehe

[Littlefire100]

@metalgod500

Same here. He has really nice legs, DAMN!

[saihikaru123]

@metalgod500 no doubt xDDD they are small and white =))) OMG damn sexy legs they are xDD

[kamuizero]

It's a shame what happened to jasmine you :(... He'll always be a part of Versailles! Great performance all of them!!

[BiancaShit]

LOVE IT!! SILENT KNIGHT KICK ASS
