Dark Sarah - "Dance With The Dragon" feat. JP Leppäluoto 

This sounds like if a Disney villian made a metal song.

metal + musical + dark fantasy as a backstory + a handsome long-haired guy with a deep voice and a top hat = perfection!

It’s giving Beauty and the Beast, Labyrinth, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Phantom of the Opera, Hades and Persephone vibes

Opera/musical + rock + long haired man + fucking good dance moves = PERFECTION

Metal Opera is fantastic.

If this was meant to be part of musical, I would kill for tickets.

"I saw the key but didn't steal!" *clearly and very openly wearing the key*

LYRICS: I know why you're here Don't try to escape my dear You've been naughty I know By trying to steal something of my own I have no idea, why I have been dragged down here Don't lie! Nor what you're talking about And Sir there's no reason to shout (And sure there's a reason to shout) I saw the key but didn't steal (You saw the key and tried to steal) I see What do we have here Nothing Now I know why you're here, you are a mischievous thief (I just can't lie to him) But if you want the key, you need to earn it my dear (He sees right through me) Oh bugger he just... This is how we treat our Guests who are trying to cheat (Took the only ticket I had) So you will be my rag doll tonight, tonight (I guess I have to see where this leads) At the dragon's ball Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender You will die another day, another way I think we're done now You think so? I have to go You're not going anywhere Why are you making this (You don't know) Harder than it is (I cry on my own) You have the key (In this lonely place) That you don't even need (That is why) You're standing here between me and my life (I'm standing here between you and your life) I'm sorry to say What now? Just get off with your tail Hah hah hah hah Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender You will die another day, another way Nanananananna leoleolelee May I have this dance Aah Nanananananna leoleolelee I will show you My best moves (Aah, your best moves) Why don't you? I just need the key, I'm trying to get out of here I know that it's a bad deal And disappointed you must feel But please help me to escape Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender Look at me and the way I ask for Forgiveness, kindness and help Take my all, I surrender, surrender We will die another day, another way... Another day... another day... Another way... another way... Another day... another way...

When Satan buys Disney and remakes Beauty and the Beast.

1st listen : Meh, not dat bad, but not my style 30th listen : Pretty good... 418th listen : TAKE MY OOOOOOOWN I SURRENDER SURRENDEEEEEEEER

Can I also add there needs to be more metal operas . Like full blown 2-3 hour operas. With badass vocals and instrumentals just like this.

There are so many fascinating details in the video...the sleeves of Dark Sarah 's dress are lace, which one can literally "see right through " just as she is lying for all she's worth- and matches the lace at the Dragon's cuffs. So do her striped stockings (reminiscent of the witch crushed by the house in The Wizard of Oz) match the singlet or undershirt you can see the Dragon wearing in several of the later frames. Steampunk devotees (or recent bridal participants )will recognize the Dragon 's jacket as a tailcoat, hence the poke about his tail (which in his dragon manifestation he would of course possess) as if he were treading on her foot (as if!) is even sharper. There are so many non-accidental matching details that are subliminally telling us that they are a pair: beautiful and charming, covetous, territorial, and dangerous ( was it one , two, or more guys Dark Sarah burned alive- which would probably be a dragon's go-to method). As far as misogyny accusations go, neither party is a sweet innocent, and dragons, male or female, are not generally on the losing side of power dynamics. If I were to find someone literally caught red-handed, with their hand in my pocket, as they're playing with my hair to distract me and singing about kindness and forgiveness, I might possibly react more strongly than the Dragon does. Misogyny is dislike, dismissal, or discrimination against women, qua women. Honestly, as appealing as she is, Dark Sarah has more than earned the hard-line response she encounters, as a person, if of the female persuasion. And the tango, beautifully done BTW, is more a mating ritual than "putting women in their place". There are similar matches and messages in Trespasser, as well. ( And did anyone else see the slightly lopsided heart in the end of the first campfire scene, made of moonlight and shadows, and a subtle one in the rocks and embers of the fire? The fleeting blue flashes from both of their black garments in the early scenes? Dark Sarah's dragon's tooth necklace? ) This would be equivalent to the nuances of great literature. And you see it after your views of these outrageously gorgeous videos mounts into the dozens. I only wish I could give the time of these notes, but I am old enough not to be great at tech. The musical opulence, the vocal magic, the passionate emotion matches the visual splendor and the brilliant artistry. Wow! The late, great Jim Steinman said, " You've got to go over the top to see what's on the other side." There can't be anything better... but I can't wait for more.

Can the booth of you make songs together like... forever?

1st listen : what is dat 2nd listen : got chills at DON'T LIE 50th listen : TAAAAAKE MY AAALLLLLL

How did I even get here..... I'm not complaining, I just need a map

I love how it gives Phantom of the opera vibes🖤💕

This entire video is a masterpiece! But can we just take a moment and appreciate the performance of the men who acted as mannequins in the background! There performance is so clean and convincing. Absolute sheer magnificence!

I came here by accident and this is amazing

A simple tango that turns into a dramatic, operatic, rhythmically compelling and orchestrally emphatic and beautifully filmed romantic confrontation … just so much … done so well … absolutely amazing.

Found this by accident and can't stop listening, there is a truly haunting beauty to the vocals and I love the sinister statue like nature of the musicians like they are mere extensions of this man's dark delusions of eternal love

DRAGON : I know why you're here, don't try to escape my dear, you've been naughty I know by trying to steal something of my own DARK SARAH: I have no idea, why I have been dragged down here...

You/I will die another day, another way LOOK AT ME AND THE WAY I ASK FOR FORGIVENESS, KINDNESS AND HELP! Take my all, I surrender, surrender! We will die another day, another way... another way...another way...another day...another way...!

You wanna hear something REALLY funny? I'm a 54 year old gramma, a total addict of 80's music, and I can NOT get enough of this song. I freaking LOVE it! These two people are absolute magik together. Ok that's it, carry on :)

Lost count of how many times I've watched this in the last three days, it's almost on permanent repeat. JP's voice is so perfect for this character, seductive with a hint of menace. If only it were possible to dance a tango with the Dragon (sighs heavily)

This guy would be perfect in a remake of interview with the vampire.

It's been a while since I've heard a Gothic metal song that actually made me feel addicted to it. This is a beautiful song.

This reminds me of The Phantom of the Opera 😍😍😍

the band being made up as statues is an underrated part of this awesome vid

Why haven't I seen this before? Why isn't that a 2 hour feature film? Where is the rest of it? Why am I only here now? What have I been doing with my life?

Every girls dream, to dance with a dark and handsome price. :)

....As the intense instrumental lead kicks in, Dark Sarah begins to fall under the Dragon's spell....he shows her a vision of what it could be like if she were to voluntarily choose to stay.....but then she realizes what is happening and pulls out of the beautiful trance. It is then that you can see the utter longing and loneliness in his eyes - and then he realizes that it was all for naught......

I am absolutely OBSESSED with this masterpiece. I love how they incorporated Carmen's tango and the tango dancing. I absolutely love this. ❤️❤️❤️. And the lyrics and how it is represented.

I'm a huge fan of musicals... and this, it's absolutely incredible. I'm in love.

Why, oh why, would you want to leave the Dragon? He obviously likes you, and can sing, and his idea of being mean is dancing! I'd like a guy like that. Being serious, I am obsessed with this video! So beautiful, and well choreographed; you guys have awesome chemistry. And the music and the singing! Ah, just perfection.

I played this for my wedding for my first dance ^^

Dragon: So you will be my rag doll tonight Me: YES, PLEASE

It's phantom of thr opera meets beauty and the beast....I love both and this song is a new favorite 😍 ❤️ 💕 💗 💖 ♥️

This is giving me such beauty and the beast, phantom of the opera, Jareth and Sarah vibes 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 I need a movie

Damn thats an innovation in symphonic metal.

Even after all this time, I still say she looks like Sarah Brightman. She's such a beautiful woman and her voice is just amazing. Like a haunting siren.

I'm not a fan of musicals, don't care for dancing, yet I can't get enough of this song. I'd happily sit through a whole show of this!

It's just the right mix of "Phantom of the Opra" and Metal. I'm loving it!

It breaks my heart when he asks her, "Why don't you..?" so lovely the voices and theatrical scene

My friend introduced me to this song thinking it would remind me of an interaction our dungeons and dragons party (specifically my character) would have with the BBEG Count Strahd Von Zarovich. I see the two vocalists in the song engaging in some mental battle where both are trying to outsmart or deceive the other. The subtlety of the dance is something that caught my attention. Not only is Sarah trying to outsmart this man, she is using massive amounts of psychology to avert him in every way which is something I do when interacting with Strahd in our campaign. I first try to negotiate, then avoid and finally outsmart. Additionally I find it interesting how the man knows exactly how she is going to react as if he has seen these tricks before. At its core I see this as a battle of wits and psychological and social intelligence with the goal being to dominate the other person.

What a shame I didn't discovered this Masterpiece earlier 😳

Seriously, both can make an entire album together and would be epic; stunning voices Heidi and JP Leppäluoto

reminds me about a mix between Phantom of the opera and a very darker version of Beauty and the Beast (the beast being a dragon in disguise of a human that holds the beauty as prisoner in his castle for his own joy and need of compassion). Love this song!

Her Nail Polish matches his Vest. Two people with musical chemistry and child like fun!!!!! How can you just watch this once?!?!

I’m so confused, I have no idea where this came from or how RU-vid recommended this but I am here for it

This is incredible!!! Dark Sarah and JP voice's are so beautiful together!! They need to do more songs together!!

this was in my recommendation list...I regret nothing

ive been lookig for this genre of music for literally ages and im so happy i found it

Genius

this seriously needs to be a musical or movie!!!! reminds me of the labyrinth

JP Leppäluoto has the voice of a god.

This has it all, metal, theater, 2 beautiful voices .

This music is criminally underrated!

My eyes and ears just had a party... and everyone was invited

JP would be a fantastic villain in some fantasy movie.

Они прекрасны как контрабас и скрипочка. Ее нежный голос задает направление песни, а он придаёт всему глубину и смысл❤

Discover this song in 2022... Wow, I have goosebumps!

I almost cry every time they get to that part where she begs him to let her go and tries to take the key from his pocket. Why are you like that? Just stay with Mr Dragon, he is so sad and lonely, and so damn handsome!

Please, tell me there are musicals like this in theaters!

Our new album GRIM with a horror fantasy story is out via Napalm Records!! Check it out and the new videos from Napalm Records RU-vid channel! #darksarah #grim

Не знаю, чем вы меня зацепили, но я, толком не зная английского, нашёл текст и перевод и выучил и то, и другое )) Песня звучит в голове уже несколько дней, я двадцатый раз смотрю этот ролик, и кайфую. Как же это невероятно потрясающе :-) Thank you for your creativity. You are amazing!

man, this new Disney movie rocks!

Thank you Finland for showing us there is life outside the box

ЭТО ШЕДЕВР, ДЕСЯТКИ РАЗ СМОТРЮ ,НЕ МОГУ ОСТАНОВИТЬСЯ ...!!!!!

I am just seeing this video and I love the vocals and I love the aesthetic. I don’t know who she is but she is beautiful and has a beautiful voice!

Anyone else wish they were Dark Sarah? Lord have mercy, I think I'd melt if I were in her shoes. I hope to one day see this performance live.

Adore this!

If there is a dance which can express the "ragdoll" mention, it is Tango of course. Love all the elements in this music video - everything is going together perfectly well, sounds and optics, a feast for ear and eye and more!

What the heck is this??? It showed up in my feed. I LOVE THIS!!! Have I been missing out on something??

I really need this to be turned into a full length opera. It would be so good.

I need a fanfiction about this

Metal opera at is best ! Wonderfull music and brillant movie...👍 Thanks for this Dark Sarah

Amo sus voces , la música, la complicidad entre ellos , su vestuario , el baile y la letra ... es perfecto todo. Un tema que me gustaría dedicar alguna vez 💖

That chorus is amazing! Jp's voice is so sexy.

I reminds me of another version of beauty and the beast, either way, someone needs to make this into a rock opera musical ASAP like I love phantom of the opera but someone needs to call Andrew Llyod Webber and get on this script. I would love to see these two characters stories.

I’m so infatuated with his voice🖤✨🌙 This is beautiful 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

This is soooo beautiful !!! Fantastic tango

Why would you want to scape when you could just sit and let him talk and enjoy the sound of his voice?

Dark Sarah Deserves more recognition!! Heidi is an amazing performer and singer!! Her previous band has lost a lot with her departure.

Wonderful! In one song - long story! Perfect voices and idea! Like also costumes!

They should have a full musical. I'm in love

I´m really obsessed with this video. The voices, the dance, the lyrics, all is perfect. I need to dance with the blue dragon, too.

Now that I watched the whole video, I feel like a person that's stupid beyond measures for I've been seeing the thumbnail in my video suggestions for some months now and wasn't clicking it to play. This is a masterpiece, I fell in love so instantly!! 😍😍 RIP replay button xD

I have watched this over and over and just NOW noticed the dragons shadow at the very beginning!!!🤩

their voices are melting into one.. i love it

Everything with JP Leppäluoto is unbelievable!

I have not read the story behind it, but It is so sad when Dark Sarah tries to take the key from the dragon, 'cuz looks like he is in love with her, and when he notice her betrayal, he gives up on helping her. But anyway, Im in love with this video soo much!

This was a recommended video for me and I am SOOO glad i clicked on it. Absolutely beautiful, amazing. I loved the line when she said i have to go and he shouted "YOUR NOT GOING ANYWHERE MY DEAR!" LOVED IT!!!

This keeps popping up on my feed and I keep clicking because it is that good. I wish this was a series about her and the dragon because I need this rock opera!

Oh my, that Dragon can take me to dance anytime he wants...

Dragon: So you will be my rag doll tonight Me: Omg wtf Dragon: At the Dragon’s Ball! Me: Ohhh...

И голоса прекрасны в дуэте, и композиция, но как же мне нравится хореография😍😍😍😍😍я не поверю, что при просмотре ролика каждый не хотел бы так танцевать с одним из главных героев истории❤❤❤❤❤❤

So magical!

I love these songs with the Opera vibe, and by Opera, I mean the strict basic meaning of the word, this appealing theatrical display. Love this track.

this is like a Disney song going dark.

JP is such a legend. THAT voice!!!!

How come I just found this?!!!! That is incredible!!!
