Great reaction again I also Watch you as a comic duo
Hahaha as long as it brightens your day for a couple of minutes, we love it ❣️
As I told before, when Metal meets orchestras and choir im mesmerized at once. And like before I have to watch this performance once ore more times without pausing. But this doesn't mean I'm unhappy with your reaction, just the opposite .. your enthusiastic and emotional reaction is nothing more than adequate for this epic performance and an absolute enjoyment like so many many times before. Thank You 🦊🦊🦊 For The Fox-God 🦊🦊🦊
A caveat to my opening comment: I swear I haven't pushed my glasses up my nose "actually....." style 😆 but...I'd just like to echo everything Paul says. Dance Macabre is a Symphonic poem I think written in 1874 by the French Composer Camille Saint-Saën - I actually got to sing it with an orchestra many many years ago but sadly Epica weren't around to accompany us! But it's a great tune and they did an excellent job with their arrangement - very sinister is I think the apt word. Would you believe I'm going to see them for the very first time this January coming,it's just sad there'll be no orchestra there! PS I'd love to see you and Nonna dance a very fast waltz to this - your feet would be steaming after the first few bars before disappearing through the resulting hole created on stage!! 😆 It's ok, you're like me, don't dance but very much appreciate it!! Take good care of yourselves
Hahahaha the image of us doing the waltz like 2 crazy people to this music is an amusing image, especially seeing ourselves doing that with a very straight face and a but of a sweat lol Also thank you and Paul for the info, and reminding us both how musically illiterate we actually are 😂 but man this song took us places!! This was a really brilliant performance...!
Danse Macabre is a style of story telling several hundred years old. The overall theme of Danse Macabre stories is if you're a bad person the devil is gonna get you. At some point a piece of symphony music was written based on Danse Macabre stories. This music has been used in many movies, tv shows and video games. Epica took the Danse Macabre music added rock elements and wrote lyrics for it. The overall structure and melody of this piece of music Epica is performing is hundreds of years old.
Thank you for the info, Paul.. We had no idea about the history behind the piece, they did a great job at this rendition then because it does sound like an Epica song, you know what I mean? Amazing performance that kept us talking off camera, even after all the talking we did on camera!
