EPICA - Unleashed (Live At The AFAS Live) 

Simone's vocals are *cheff kiss *

Simone's vocals have improved so much lately. She's amazing and so are the rest of the guys. Truly one of the best touring bands in the world right now, they have the best vibes 🖤

Would be great if they released Fools of Damnation, it's been a long time since a good quality version of that song was released

Yeah! 🤘 Best symphonic metal band in the world. 🤘 I love Simone, I love Epica! 🧡

I love how Simone adds little trills and twists to her live performances. Several here that are marked improvements on the studio version. She does one in Code Of Life live that's just straight up divine as well.

You can see the joy in their eyes and the fun they have together on stage 🤘🤘🤘

Wow this is intense... The song always gives me goose bumbs. It's my most favourite song ever! Thank you Epica 🖤

we are always happy about new live from Epica, but even more for those songs for which there were no official live yet 😁

What the hell was going on with Simone's voice for that show? It's sounding AMAZING, like in studio. Her mental preparation was evidently outstanding, maybe because she knew the concert was going to be recorded ❤

Wow one of their best performances... you can really see how much they love to be on stage. And Simone, divine as always. Her voice contains so much colour and feelings. 🤘🫶🥰

There is something always mesmerising about his band. Everytime you see tham they are shining as supernova by positive energy, enjoying each show, smiling to each other. They work like avalance of happiness. I was lhappy to enjoy their show last year during Basifire Fest - to see Isaac and Coen in MoshPit surounded by metalheads. Live long and prosper EPICA - we all need you

Epica has slowly become my fav band! Damn, I love them so much ❤

Epica is one of the legendary bands that sound better live than in their studio recordings🔥

Keep hiding All colors fading Defining Time coming for me Rescinding my inspiration Rescinding consciousness Back in the day, I can recall that My thoughts were unclouded and sage There was no black stain in the walls of my memories Now there's a haze pushing me sideways And leaving me nothing to gain Taking me back, locking me cold in disparity Where was I meant to be? I'm feeling lost in a dream Long for the day I can be myself When I'm free When my sun has set Release myself forever I have no regret To be free I'll exist again No more lost endeavors Nothing to contend When I'm free Color declines All that defines me Is falling away far behind Nothing to keep me with the time The here and now Where am I meant to be? I'm feeling lost in a dream Yearning again only to be myself When I'm free When my sun has set Release myself forever I have no regret To be free I'll exist again No more lost endeavors Nothing to contend When I'm free Time's just a concept (save me, near me, help me, hear me) And always the first thing to fade (no more heartache, no misery) Hiding in weakness(cure me, free me, help me, see me) Nothing we can ever evade (no more worry, no agony) Years are cruel, they break us (save me, near me, help me, hear me) Bringing on decay and despair (we despair) (no more heartache, no despairing) Awareness and perception (cure me, free me, help me, see me) Something we can never repair (no repair) (no more worry, no repairing) Freedom for me is all I'm really wanting, needing Give me power to break out I can't hold on for any longer My time has to come to an end it all No one to blame Fate's only random It's nothing we'll ever explain So it remains Where was I meant to be? I feel I'm lost in a dream Long for the day I can be myself (free) When will I be unleashed? It's not the way to be Yearning again only to be myself (unleash my consciousness) Free (cure me, free me, help me, see me) When my sun has set (no more worry, no more losing) Release myself forever (save me, near me, help me, hear me) I have no regret To be free (cure me, free me, help me, see me) I'll exist again (no more worry, no more losing) No more lost endeavors (save me, near me, help me, hear me) Nothing to contend When I'm free

How not to love them?, beautiful performance by everyone as in every concert!, please fly to Uruguayyyyy!!!

Simone's vocals sound particularly beautiful in this one. Godlike.

Gente, que coisa mais linda! Epica fazendo jus ao nome! Belíssimo! Poucas bandas de sinfônico atualmente tem o poder de palco que o Epica tem. Arrepiada! Só orgulho!

Those high notes are so hard but so satisfying to hear! Bravo!

Can’t wait, I was there front row and center, it was an amazing concert, as always. 🤘

It was beyond amazing to celebrate Epica’s biggest show in our home country together! 🫶🏻🔥🤘🏻🇳🇱

One of the best symphonic metal songs ever! 🤘

4:52 at this time , my soul was indeed "unleashed"

I was there live, what an amazing show!

I've only been hearing them, watching etc; for about 4yrs now and every time since I've been kicking my and saying why did I wait so long? I have been a symphonic metal fan for so long. I'm so embarrassed. Such powerful music, Simone with her siren of a voice. Next time I hear a band like this and I don't know about them is the day I turn in my metal card for destruction!🎼🤘🌹

I hope there will come a new live album Live at afas🎉

Free to say Her beauty is outstanding and her voice is magnificent. thanks Simone and Epica

From this song so many years ago I found my favourite group!!! Keep creating ❤❤❤

Epica is truly epic! That voice. That face. That sound. Blown away.

I love this band & Simone Simons! 💗

G L O R I O U S

Yes give us that epic high harmony very nice 🔥🎤❤️🤘

What a performance and no false note to be on stage ! Really I love

For the LOVE of GOD, release this into a Bluray... LOVE IT !!!

Oh my god this was incredible! Now we need the entire AFAS Live concert!

4:50 this part always shivers me!

Today I heard you for the first time on polandrock and I fell in love with your voice ❤❤

Good lord I have literally goosebumps, chills down the spine and teary eyes! EPICA u are simply by far the best symphonic metal band out there!! Also have to say Simone u are becoming better and better with each year and it seems there are no limits for ur beautiful crystal clear soprano voice! U guys reign supreme in the symphonic metal scene! U make me proud to be Dutch! 🇳🇱🤘🏻 Ps. I am so lucky that i was there in AFAS Live too just loved the show so freaking much!

This band is amazing and Simone has a beautiful voice.

As always, pure brilliance.

Que pessoal mole nesse show. Se fosse no Brasil pessoal estaria enlouquecido 😂 Epica faz os melhores shows, como é bom ser fã dessa banda. Amo vocês ❤

Épica sempre é épico de se ouvir, esse show então, deve ter sido incrível estar lá pra acompanhar de perto

Look forward to, love this song! There are still so many I wish were released live versions of tho:)

Me encanta su voz mezzosoprano, es lo mejor que han escuchado mis oídos en 6 ocasiones en vivo

Sounds absolutely phenomenal ! This was my first Epica song more than 10 years ago and still one of my favorites. More live performances please

Que perfeição meu Deus 😍❤❤❤

I want to date the led screens!😂 They made this tour stage so pretty! out of this world pretty!

I saw you at download festival and all I can say is I want a band t-shirt and when do you next play? 😊 Also please upload download footage, I was apparently on the big screen according to my mum and I'd love to see it back when you called the wall of death :') either way though I'm dragging my friend to your next concert, I need moreeeee ❤️

Year 21 of being a fan of this band. Seeing and earing them evolve, strengthen, learn and create. loved every lyric, every beat, every goosebump. See you guys at Graspop. And I will continue to lobby for you to have the main stage for an evening there, because more then anything, you deserve this.

Can't wait for this!!! 🎉 I love you Epica! ❤

Simone Simons, canta demais, chego arrepiar.

You are a living legend Simone👍

❤️❤️❤️ Que saudades do show deles 😭

I'll always love this song, is a masterpiece 😍

5:00 Good to see Steven Wilson in an Epica concert 🤭

Vocals....beauty.... talent......i love her

Floating on clouds. Therefore Epica is my favorite band ever.

Was so amazing being there! Very happy to have an official live of this fantastic song, goosebumps!

We need more live of epica 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

This song is soooo beautiful and to hear it live......my goosebumps had.goosebumps! I even cried a little. Thank you Epica ❤

Cela doit faire 15 ans que je n’avais pas écouté Epica… quelle erreur et quelle claque ! Je suis encore plus impressionné qu’à l’époque, merveilleux, fantastique, épique !!! Cela change des merdes à l’auto-tune actuelles !

Just stunning. The power in the way this song is performed shakes the ground. Epica and Leaves Eyes conceive, compose and perform symphonic metal at the highest level. They are the elite, the pinnacle, and dwell in unapproachable light. (Honorable mention for early Nightwish and Diabulus in Musica).

My favorite song. The melodies, those riffs, the insane good drumming and of course Simone vocals.

Perfection 👌

One of my favourite songs of all time, I was beyond happy to see it live last March ❤❤

Simone : an Angel on earth.

What an outstanding performance ❤❤❤

Epica rules!! 👍👍

Umas das primeiras que ouvi dessa banda maravilhosa, I love you Epica ❤ ❤ 🇧🇷🇧🇷

Wow cool and beautiful 🔥🔥🔥💞💞💞🤩🤩🤩🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖😃😃😃

Nmms Simone ya canta hasta los coros, si que le hizo bien el descanso porque suena geniaaaal 🔥🔥

Amazing as always!!!! So grateful for this band

I love this song!! ❤❤ So powerful!!!💪💪💪

This is probably the best I've heard her voice. Just something about this performance on that night. I've followed them for a while, love the band, love the music, and of course Simone's voice is perfection. She is a modern day enigma and she keeps it that way.

So good ❤❤❤

Как же хочется снова на концерт, божечки-кошечки, эх...(((

Yeah... EPICA is best.....

Legends already!! Damn!! Wish I could have been there!!

This song its a masterpiece!

When I'm free When my sun has set Release myself forever I have no regret To be free

Magnífico!

Wow that voice is amazing, I love it

Beautiful song en live clip beste band ever live album en blu-ray i love the songs en band 🎥📽🎸🎤📀💿🤟❤❤

WOW, Simone's voice is like liquid gold 🤤 Epica are so confident with their music and their live performances. It was such a treat to see them with Sabaton last year, can't wait until they come back to the U.S.!

Chega arrepiar essa versão ao vivo

Keep the live shows coming! Hopefully also the full Paris 2017 gig one day...!

I really need to keep an eye open for their next tour on this side of the Pond. I need to see this band live so bad!!!

Que perfeição 😍❤️

"....i exist again" line on 2nd chorus gaveme literal goosebumps. Such beautifully executed melody line.

Io sono innamorato di questa canzone e degli Epica! Puro amore ❤

I LOVE U MUSIC, ALWAYS! ❤
