This is Omnos by the folk-metal band Eluveitie. I decided to use one of the non-screamy songs for the sake of broad appeal.

I decided to use one of the non-screamy songs

Thank you. I think screamy/growly vocals and drumming that sounds like an air compressor ruins a lot of music I would otherwise like.

"Vally of the Morning Sun" -Kendra Smith
Valley Of The Morning Sun - Kendra Smith

Nice melody and flow. But to me it lacks some musical progression and tension (expecially for such a rather long song)

Ah Jacques
8.5/10, he's great.

While we're still at it, let's stick to belgian music shall we?

I especially liked the keyboards toward the end. And speaking of Belgian bands, here's my favorite: Ostrogoth.

YouTube - Ostrogoth - Rock Fever

 

[Thomas The Atheist]

Even though the band's belgian, I have got to admit I've never heard of them before lol...
The song was alright, but just not my kind of music I'm not that much of a hardrock fan.

6.5/10

The language, btw, isn't Belgian, it's called "Dutch".
As there are 3 official languages spoken in Belgium (Dutch, French and German),
there isn't a "Belgian" language, if you get what I mean.

One more belgian song:
"The way to your heart" - Soulsister

Most people don't know this is a belgian song, but it is

YouTube - Soulsister - The way to your heart lyrics

 

[MacFall]

Oh. I thought Belgian was a dialect of French, actually. :o

 

[Thomas The Atheist]

Oh. I thought Belgian was a dialect of French, actually. :o

:O

There are TONS of people here who'd hate you for saying that lol...

Do you know anything about the linguistic problems we are currently having in Belgium? Because things are getting out of hand lol

And you still need to rate my last song and put up a new one.

 

[Beechwell]

One more belgian song:
"The way to your heart" - Soulsister

8/10
Lol, I used to love that song as a kid. Still brings back good memories. And I did indeed not know Soulsister was Belgian.

Well to complete the set of official Belgian languages (although not from a Belgian, but from good ol' Germany) another 80's song

Great

Yeah Soul Sister is indeed a Belgian band. Jan Leyers and Paul Michiels, who have both become pretty famous these days. Jan got into sports and TV in general aswel.

Machinae Supremacy - Winterstorm

YouTube - Machinae Supremacy - Winterstorm

As leader I remain aware
As they all sleep
I see my breath in the freezing air
Yet as I wander through the snow, all alone
Can't help but feel at home
I wander

So silently I touch the ground
That I traverse
Move swift without a single sound
And as I wander through the snow, I'm strong alone
Can't help but feel at home
I wander

Predicting searching soul-less eyes
Exit the dark
Emerging now from night's disguise
And as I hunt throughout the night, I walk alone
Can't help but feel at home
I'm where I belong

 

[Skavau]

10/10

I've heard it before. Got it. Excellent song. Listen to it prominently during winter, unsurprisingly.

YouTube - Eluveitie - Lugdunon

 

[Skilletdude]

I love Eluveitie! 8/10! I just got that album a couple weeks ago too. I think it's my favorite one they've put out so far. MUCH better than their last one (which was hardly even folk metal... just nice celtic rock music or something).

Almost forgot to post a song

7/10 for the song above.

Jason Michael Carroll - Alyssa Lies

[MacFall]

Not a fan of country, but that was a good song anyway. I'll just give it a one shot rating of 7.5/10. That's flattering from me for a country song.


Moar Eluveitie.

[Beechwell]

Moar Eluveitie.

7/10
Pretty nice song, actually. I like it.
Not really what I would usually listen to, though (what is it, Folk Metal?). And it's a bit too, I don't know, monotone maybe?

And now for an old classic:
Meat Loaf - Bat out of Hell

(found only the short version )
