Doctor: I'm afraid you have only 10 minutes to live
Me: I want to watch Avantasia - Scarecrow live
Doctor: But it's 11:55
Grim Reaper: Just let him...

Jorn's voice can destroy the Mijolnir

[ruidodelaser]

I will remember for the rest of my life the note Tobias hit on 8:30 as the most fucking ballsy falsetto on the history of power metal

[acemrack]

If you have only 12 minutes, this video is the best thing in the world to apply them.

[giovannipedini]

Jorne Lande's voice is amazing, he has a melody not reproducible. 

[callaham]

I love the way Tobias was crawling to keep the vocal line in tune since 8:10.
But when I thought he's running out of breath, he returned from the ashes hitting that top range note like a monster 8:33.
Holy Tobias!!!

[daks]

Jorn is the ultimate metal singer. Range, control, technique, balls and out of everything the aggresiveness. His voice is like a raging hurricane that destroys everything on its path yet it has the immaculate beauty of nature at the finest.

[AresKiske]

Well, Jorn was definitely on fire that night. Such an outstanding performance for an outstanding song.

[marianolombardi]

QUE TEMAZO!!! uno de los mejores duos que puedas escuchar en una noche impecable.. realmente impresionante

[Likynis]

We praise Tobias for his amazing tonal ranges, and it is well deserved. We praise Jorn for his unmatched voice, and it is well deserved. But can we take a moment to appreciate the amount of stamina Felix has to set the tempo? The man is an amazing drummer.

[aggelosdimitropoulos]

the way Tobias is singing the part of Lande's part on 9:14 is just unforgettable .... oh my .. goosebumps

[marekvodicka]

It's always a pleasure to see a live version that's even better than the studio .)

[blazejecar]

I want 12 minutes of my life back


so I can spend them replaying this

[alcntar]

Quando os caras conseguem fazer o ao vivo melhor que o estúdio...

[tristonho]

Forget about Michael Jackson! Tobias is the best dancer in the world! (00:22 to 00:40)

[carlosgarces]

La afinación de Jorn Lande es impresionante, debe ser uno de los mejores vocalistas del mundo.

[vinniesaint]

And this my friends is the best song ever created.

[warriorsorb]

I will NEVER get tired of this song. The violin/cello intro part blows my mind away every time

[jwillborg]

Jesus. Not sure if people realise how hard it is to sing the bit the way Jorn does it between 09:00-09:45-, in front of that many people... Simply world class!

[MrGFG]

So many years have passed since I found this song... and has kept me alive during the worst nightmares of my life, and I believe I still have 3 nightmares more to go... oh well... just hangin' in there...
