Allan with all due deference to you and the composer of Infinity War (aaarrghhh, I’m blanking in the composer’s name, it was Brian, no wait it was Mr. Alan Silvestri, I think, anyhow never mind), I haven’t heard anyone ever mentioning that about infinity war OST. Thomas is a brilliant composer, always; one of the very few who has the balls (first) and wits (later) to always redefine the meaning of the term “diversity” in music.
No but it's a meme on internet, it's not about the ost. There was an announcement for infinity wars mentionning that it was the most ambitious crossover, then lots of memes came out with that.
With the Irish tap dancing, western and British fiddles, Arabian drums, sprinkled with a little Spanish and wrapped in modern bass and drum set, you have the most epic musical burrito on the planet. YUM
Compared to most listeners to TSFH, I am prehistoric, being aged 60. In my lifetime I have listened to and bought music from some of the 'Supergroups' of the 70's / 80's (Yes, Pink Floyd, Queen, etc etc) and listened to some very diverse music and genres. TSFH music makes me just as happy as those Supergroups - and perhaps more so. What I admire most, even though they get criticised a lot for it, is how they can blend styles / genres / cultures into one piece of music so successfully. They deserve so much more credit and recognition for what they produce and I hope that comes soon enough. For now, I just thank my lucky stars I didn't shuffle off this mortal coil before hearing some of their stuff. Rock on TSFH and may you go down in history for what you do.
I'm just a youngster approaching 51 but I too appreciate the wondrous sound of this music. Humanity has so many amazing vocal and musical sounds to explore and experience. One Million Voices is an excellent blend. I'd love to see this with several hundred dancers doing all the footwork and toe tapping stuff.
I am a young man of 25 with an old soul. I love jazz, opera, and much more, including newer music styles like metal and rock. I find that good music doesn't come from one single style/culture/genre, but rather is music that stirs the soul and makes the soul itself sing. I find that if the creator's heart is not in it, that the music is not great. emotions must be harnessed, thoughts turned to sound, and memories made music. remember, my young friend of 60 years, remember and celebrate. do not yearn for more time, but spend your time upon this mortal coil well, with true family (for not all family are blood, and not all blood are family) and god friends.
Comments from my Eastern European friend: this song is an overlap of multiple traditional Bulgarian folk songs. Incredible music and cultural masterpiece.
@@DarksiderDarmoset czcams.com/video/Uy29HcrlC9U/video.html this is a remix of Esil Duran, but the original song is hundreds, maybe thousands of years old, because the lyrics are in very old Bulgarian
I am not from Eastern, I am Western/central, but I guessed correctly, that I had thought that it is Bulgarian. Because it is very similar to Christopher Tin's song - Dark Clouds (Temen Oblak).
@@DarksiderDarmoset czcams.com/video/HIeaJiObw0g/video.html It's a modern remix, basically a lot of Oj Jano Jano or Jovanke songs from the Balkans so from Croatia to Bulgaria follow this melody.

Back in the day they had Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach, Strauss... In our day we Have Thomas Bergersen, John Powell, Hanz Zimmer, John Williams, and Howard Shore. We live in the second golden age of instrumental. No one will ever convince me otherwise.
@@djprojectus Some character from an old Deus Ex game. Ironically, I too noticed it in all youtube comments and then i set it as my profile pic too, for fun...
@@soeinspast4096 Haha,if this is spreading it will be funny and confusing to see it even more often. I thought is agent Smith from Matrix and thats why has multiplied like him😁 but i see that its not Agent Smith!
Does anyone else get this sudden rush of energy when listening to this sort of music and without even controlling it, like something else takes over and you just find yourself up on your feet, running across the house and dancing, completely subconsciously?
This is what musical masterminds like Mozart had in mind. They wanted to evoke certain emotions and tell a story with them during their orchestral pieces, just like the kind one feels here.
Asian, North American, Celtic, Eastern European, and more themes I can't even begin to identify, all wound together in a symphony of civilization. Absolutely amazing! This is what music should aspire to be.
Many drastically different themes that really make me feel the "one million voices" and cultures. 1. Rainforest 2. Desert / Middle Eastern 3. Epic music 4. European classical music 5. Russian 6. Celtic / Gaelic / Irish 7. Chinese (especially CNY style music) 8. American western / country 9. I can't decide. Somehow they are so different yet go so well together, Thomas, work of genius as usual! Congrats on the 1 million subscribers, honoured to be part of it.
The Slavic back-vocals are actually Bulgarian, not Russian. The lyrics are: Леле, Яно, вси се разпопиха, оти си хубава, хубава гиздава /Oh, Yana, everyone got crazy [for you] because you are so beautiful [and] bonny/... It's from a song by Esil Duran. That song itself is a mixture of Bulgarian pop-folk, Turkish pop, and techno, which I find too extravagant, but TSFH made it sound epic.
They're using this music for the world cup in Qatar! The moment I heard it I instantly recognized it. I had to come back here and enjoy the full piece once again
@@epiconehourmusic1435 Yup! TSN Canada is using it for their WC show intro (inclusive of the Qatar theme), bumps and outro. An epic score that I had to Shazam because I was obsessed with the music.
Can you imagine this being played during the closing ceremony for the Olympics after we finally beat covid-19 it may take a couple of years but I think it would be worth it just to hear this being played by an orchestra made of musicians from all over the world
Covid won't be beat. It will only fade away when it's ready to fade away, mutating into other viral strains as always happens. But I'm all for the orchestra.
The coolest thing about Two Steps From Hell, besides their awesomely epic tracks, is that they make the music available for public purchase and enjoyment.
@@madmadamemimlovesepicmusic519 I was referring to the quote "they make music available for public purchase and enjoyment" and sarcastically mentioning TSFH's industry album which isn't for public xd
@@orionsimoniantaylor2298 It's a cheap joke. Zoophobic=afraid of animals. If someone had said something like "Proud to be Straight!" They'd be called homophobic. It's a play on the wording used in the op's comment, but it's not terribly clever.
I remember discovering YSFH back when Heart of Courage was barely over 50k back in early 2012-2013 when they were known by the few, seeing them succeed gives me pride
Proud to be here since 2011 from that To Glory video uploaded by Epic Music World. As time passed I slowly moved to EDM and pop, but Two steps from hell still holds the place as "that legendary playlist" in my phone.
I got to know TSFH in 2016, still happy I did, but inreal life i only met 2 persons that knew it, the one that introduced me to it and a random classmate, so sad its still actually so little known
I found it my listening to epic music vn and looked them up from there back in 2014, then I spread it to my family. No one else I know listens to it though. Whenever I blast it on speakers around others they always ask me "what is that? That's so cool!"
I discovered TSFH accidentaly whilst looking where were music from "Dancing Line" made. Another level of luckines overall. Btw "the piano" was based on "Empire of Angels" if someone wanna know
Earlier this year I took a very long Lyft ride and blasted this song along the way. The driver could definitely hear the music. After the song ended he signaled to me and asked a lot of questions. I could tell he was impressed by the composition. He told me he was from the Middle East and sometimes had trouble fitting in. We ended up having a really deep conversation about life, love, humanity, and diversity. That ride will always stand out to me. Music really can bring people together.
A new solo album? YES. I can't help feeling hyped with this piece. It's intense and epic. I love it. So many different cultural music in this. What can this man not do?
At the very beginning, it was him himself, standing in front of the gates, fighting the fears by himself. It was his bravery that drew people to join him. Tens, thousands. As more joined him, they fought and went closer to the eternal flames. And now here we are, one million men, in front of hell, just two steps away!
And never forget, music makes you braver, and that is why, with a million men, they spend their victories not drinking away, but singing many a song into the night, with the most skilled bards throughout the lands finding a place where their talents are accepted, who'd expect that they're calling laid just two steps from hell?
I literally cried. Not just because of how beautiful this piece is but, for all the lovely comments here wishing happiness no matter the nationality! 😂😂😂
What I really love about Two Steps From Hell and Thomas Bergersen's music is that it doesn't present just one image in your mind, but a series of varying scenes; but this, it's unlike anything I have ever heard before.
It's like an instant, a moment that's in our minds, clear as looking through a window. But for each of us, what we see is different, and what visions we tie it to differs. TSFH might make only dozens of soundtracks, but they inspire a million voices.
THIS! This is why i love music like this! It's sad that a lot of people don't experience this because they choose to not let that music, the emotions it stirs in oneself, to really enter the soul. They hear the music blindly
I can't describe how much I felt while listening to this masterpiece. It feels like... being on a small boat on the ocean in the middle of the wild storm, but there is no fear...just the overwhelming feeling of immortality, strenght and god like power. This soundtrack is pure perfection.
It's been nine months of listening to this track and continuously being amazed at Thomas' musical skills. But I've now reached the point where I absolutely MUST have the rest of the album. Humanity's release cannot come fast enough.
StarPlaty agreed. I read a response that Thomas put to a comment on his Facebook page a couple of months ago that he was hoping if all went according to plan then it would be released this year. If that’s turned out not to be the case then with a bit of luck we’ll see it early next year - seeing as they’re going on tour in March/April then he might do a release to coincide with that. Fingers crossed that we’ll see it sooner rather than later either way!
@@N0616JCProductions Point is, he can create a storyline without the listener being required to understand the words, rendering the voices sounds without a specific meaning. That is why they also use artificial language in some songs. In my opinion Thomas is especially good at telling stories, while Nick is more about creating a mood. Depending on what one is looking for, their music seems to be universally applicable.
Looked over to my second screen, where this was playing, when it appeared on my playlist... and it brought a smile to my face. I remember this was released when you lot hit 1 million subscribers, and I was so glad to be one of those million for a song like this to come out. Really an incredible song, and I still love listening to it to this day.
Stunning! Stunning! Stunning! Really love it. My fav part is basically from 6:36 till the end. Sounds like a great gathering where people dance around the fire, eat food, having some drinks and tell stories of great adventures. Happy to say this song left a smile on my face and a jump in my step!!
So many pictures flood my mind listening to this masterpiece. From planets unexplored to children dancing this music. This whole thing is Life itself put to music. Excellent job! I will listen as I write my stories
Yes!!!! A guy with a mushroom profile picture (who happens to be one proud member of those 1 million) is so happy for this insane achievement. Congratulations, may many more millions come!
A guy with a profile picture he can't find a proper short description for agrees wholeheartedly and is very happy that these comments are still around.
A girl with a profile sideview profile picture _lol_ (who happens to be one proud member of those 1 million) enjoys seeing this sort of comment, that already were around when this channel had less than half a million subscribers. :D
A guy with a semi-ironic "i am enlightened" profile picture (who happens to be one proud member of those 1 million) is likewise thrilled to see 1 million subs and can't wait for them to get the 10s of millions of subscribers they deserve. Bring on the musical revolution.
At first I was put off by the vocals, having never heard that style before, but by the end of the song I had absolutely fallen in love with them! This music is unique and beautiful and I can't wait for the album
Those vocals were what instantly caught me! :) But I have heard a lot of diffrent world music/ folk music from diffrent cultures already so these vocals weren't anything new for me.
These vocals are from the song "Lele Yano" by bulgarian pop-folk singer Esil Duran. I'm Bulgarian and I'm not much into her music but your work, Mr. Bergersen, is incredible! The feeling I get from listening it is so motivating! Somewhere at 2:45 I can hear Greek language too and after 4th minute there's a instrumental of Celtic music, I guess? Two Balkan's and one Western Europe's + the main epic/movie music. Awesome work of art!
There's a shift partway through the Celtic section that turns into American fiddle which is awesome because American bluegrass is descended from Scottish highland music. Then just after the 6 minute mark the fiddles give way to Middle Eastern instruments with the oud (a type of guitar-like instrument) and drums. Then the theme shifts closer to far east music near 7 minutes. Afterward they all combine together at once.
Japanese in the beginning and after this starting with the Bulgarian singing is GODLIKE EPIC! Thomas, for very long you're my most favourite compositor. Your masterpieces will travel time and space and will remain immortal. May the Stars watch over you.
Wow, I love the flawless mix of different cultural music styles! It’s giving me chills of wonder at the beauty of unification. I’m so grateful for it in the face of what’s happened this week with Russia’s attack on Ukraine. This music gives voice to my love for those people and my hope for unity and peace between the nations.
Музикалната композициия е построена върху българската народна песен," Леле Яно". Toва е т.н. фолклорно песнопение. Разбира се, има вплетени и други мотиви. Аз, като българка, разпознах родния фолклор. Благодаря на Thomas Bergersen за това истинско произведение на изкуството!
Можете да продължите запознаването си с българското съдържание на музиката на Томас. Той има прекрасна композиция Fearless. Използва се песен за партизанин, който отива на война.
literal goosebumps every time i hear this play, even three years later. this song is an absolute masterpiece for the ages. it shows how music really is a universal language, with all the different aspects from different areas of the world joining in to create a cacophony of music that comes together so beautifully. if only human nature allowed us to co-exist as perfectly as this.
So glad I found you guys, Two Steps From Hell, back in the 5th (or 6th ?) grade in Elementary when I was just 12 yo. Now here I am, 20 yo and still listening. Great song ! Love you both guys, your work has turned into more that just everyday dull job because it involves at least 1 million people !
For me it was youtube recommending me the compilations by SphexAudio. I listened to it for quite some time, but it still took a couple months to actually look for the source and, well, here I am, still hooked.
My cousin brought me into this...always used to see "Archangel" on the screen. when he made me listen to it , at that time , I wasn't anymore a normal 10yo
And here we are, Two Steps From Hell, the channel that has accompanied us for so long finally reaching 1 Million subscribers. A milestone well deserved. Honestly, it has been a long time since I said this, but I think this is the perfect time to do it once again. Mythic Squad, assemble!
I think I speak for all of us here in saying that Two Steps From Hell are one of, if not the greatest composers of our time. Their music has accompanied me for such a long time and in countless situations. It is probably hard to quantify how much joy their music has brought to us collectively, how many they inspired to do things they love, how many they helped through hardship and suffering. Watching that counter tick over alongside my friends in the squad and probably a large number of strangers was probably the best thing I did all month. Honestly, I don't think I can really put into words what I feel. So, with One Million Voices we say thank you for being this awesome. Onward to the next million! They certainly deserve it.
Someone translated the original Folk lyrics: Есил Дюран - Леле, яно: Esil Duran - Oh my, Yano! ("Lele" is an exclamation that means something like "Oh my God/Oh heavens/Oh dear!"... u get the sense ;] ) *The name of the girl is Yana, but since the singer is addressing her directly - something like" Hey, Yana"- it becomes YanO :] Леле Яно вси се разпопиа Oh my, Yano, everyone is ??? ("Разпопя/Разпопвам" is when a priest becomes a non-priest aka to "Defrock". "Разпопиа" might be the dialect form of "Разпопиха", which means "they unfrocked". The BG part of the song is in old, folklore Bulgarian, so that's why it is not very clear to me what this razpopia means) Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. - Why are u beautiful - beautiful and pretty Леле Яно си се разпопиа Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. /х2/ - Why are u beautiful - beautiful and pretty Everybody feels love of her She's the lady and she's the girl. Breaking the hearts and go away, Feel the rhythm and move your way /х2/ Hoppala yarim yaz geldi, Çarşıya kiraz geldi. Aldım beş okka kiraz O da yare az geldi. /х2/ Леле Яно вси се разпопиа Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. Леле Яно си се разпопиа Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. It's time for music, it's time for love Here's the summer and we can't stop. Breaking the rules and go away, Feel the rhythm and move your way. /x2/ Леле Яно вси се разпопиа Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. Леле Яно вси се разпопиа Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава
Харесвам музиката на Томас Бергенсон точно защото използва нашия фолклор смесен с ритми от целия свят и трябва да се чусваме като най най в целия този ритъм на музика че се чуват наши песни които по друг начин няма да достигнат до голямата публика даже и дане знаят какво се пее рита мът ще ги завладее и ще им даде старт да търсят нашия фолклор
a quick note on defrock vs Разпопиха: defrock= the official removal of the right to be a priest vs Разпопиха in this song's context= the priests in this case voluntarily decide to no longer be clergymen as they could not resist the beauty of Yana :) Разпопиа is a dialect spoken form of the literary Разпопиха . Source: I am a native Bulgarian.
Thomas Bergersen You are truly the most inspiring person on earth !! Thank you for everything ! Thank you for making us travel in your world with you !
One million voices The Creation of Earth Children of the sun They're so epic and I can almost see infinite landscapes in these pieces... Idk how else to describe it 👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👌
Heard this over a year ago and it is definitely the best piece of music I have ever heard. The sheer scale and power never ceases to impress me, especially from how small it starts. It's just an escalation of sheer musical genius. I love this guy's other work,but this for me is just the absolute height of perfection.
I feel like we have just touched a bit of japanese cyberpunk, arabic, irish/western cultures embedded into a hybrid classical and instrumental frame. It could have not been a more diverse yet still harmonious music, just like your 1 000 000 (ONE MILLION) subscribers. The title said it all.. Congrats, keep on reinventing yourself ;)
I remember listening to this when it frist came out. It feels like you're taking a trip through the world and traveling through so many cultures. It's amazing how much music can capture.
I've never heard such an ambitious fusion of styles, nor have I felt so many feelings all at once. I'm literally trying not to cry as I type this. AMAZING work.
@@ahmadjaber7546 : «πάμε να τα πάρουμε Γιαννάκη μαζί μας. Αυτός είσαι» . It is something that does NOT make sense ... but certainly it was a big surprise to me , to hear Greek in a TSFH's piece !
@@hitsigekever6363 Νo , it is Greek , Bulgarian are completely different languange , both at structure and hearing . Anyway , that Greek sentence at the piece is : " Go little John there to take them with us , "this is you " " !!
This piece has so many different worldly cultural styles all mashed into one seamless and epic track. Even though it has such a wide variety of styles, it all still sounds like one cohesive piece. Amazing, as always, TSFH.
What I love the most about TSFH is the way they can blend different styles, genres and even cultures into one. They have a real talent for that. It's breath taking. This is a perfect example.
My favorite part is from 0:00 to 9:05 But seriously, this entire song is pure gold, even though I can't understand a single word sang, I still understand the song, ya know what I men? It is impossible to listen to it just once.
I remember being deployed in iraq in 2010 when i first started listening to TSFH and TB the music helped me get through alot of the stuff going on then and now i hope you guys keep making masterpieces because thats what you guys do
That's crazy... That's TSFH's biggest strenght. Anyone can interpret musics, lyrics and titles as they wish.There are so many possible meanings that everyone can find one that matches their thoughts and emotions.
Hey David Knowles, so you're prehistoric huh....age 60. Well, my man I am 76 and have loved most all kinds of music. About 4-5 yrs ago I found TSFH and I can say.....wow & wow again. Never heard of Epic Music, but boy did I love it and all kinds to. I have to say Thomas Bergerson, is a true master of his own music, he is at the top of my list. I have lots of his work and TSFH. I have an addiction though ^_^ a good kind, music and the Epic Albums of TSFH & Thomas Bergerson....look him up on Utube.
one of the best epic tracks i've EVER listened to!!! 🎵🎶 goosebumps all over my whole body, edpecially at the celtic climax moment at 05:30! 😍😍 awesome what can be accomplished mixing up different styles of world music!
I remember back when this song first came out, I commented saying something along the lines of "This song is so great, they deserve more appreciation than the mumble rappers do". I deleted it out of embarrassment about a year ago, but here is me trying to be a bit more mature: All music is beautiful. All of it, from rap to pop to country to blues, songs ancient and songs new. If it makes you FEEL something, anything at all- inspired, happy, sad- then it's beautiful to you, and should not be put down just because of its genre. That's what I think this song was meant to be about, and I missed it when I first heard it. It's about all of the people, all of their music, coming together from around the world. One million voices, but, in the end, it's all Music and something beautiful to you, something that everyone knows. Like a language that everyone speaks. That is what this song was meant to convey, and I'm glad I understand it better now. Have an amazing day, all one million of you
Saame man xDD I was like oh cool i'll get it when i have the money (i need to save for 20 bucks yeah hahaha) and then THIS. AND OMG WHAT A FEELING THROUGH MAH VEINS
That transition at 3:38 gets me every. Single. Time. I just get so thrilled. I love listening to this song at this time of year now. Reviewing what happened in the world and feeling a sense of unity through this music.
"Infinity war is the most ambitious crossover in history"
Thomas Bergersen: Hold my piano.
Allan with all due deference to you and the composer of Infinity War (aaarrghhh, I’m blanking in the composer’s name, it was Brian, no wait it was Mr. Alan Silvestri, I think, anyhow never mind), I haven’t heard anyone ever mentioning that about infinity war OST. Thomas is a brilliant composer, always; one of the very few who has the balls (first) and wits (later) to always redefine the meaning of the term “diversity” in music.
No but it's a meme on internet, it's not about the ost. There was an announcement for infinity wars mentionning that it was the most ambitious crossover, then lots of memes came out with that.

I'm just a youngster approaching 51 but I too appreciate the wondrous sound of this music. Humanity has so many amazing vocal and musical sounds to explore and experience. One Million Voices is an excellent blend. I'd love to see this with several hundred dancers doing all the footwork and toe tapping stuff.
I am a young man of 25 with an old soul. I love jazz, opera, and much more, including newer music styles like metal and rock. I find that good music doesn't come from one single style/culture/genre, but rather is music that stirs the soul and makes the soul itself sing. I find that if the creator's heart is not in it, that the music is not great. emotions must be harnessed, thoughts turned to sound, and memories made music. remember, my young friend of 60 years, remember and celebrate. do not yearn for more time, but spend your time upon this mortal coil well, with true family (for not all family are blood, and not all blood are family) and god friends.
also, I totally agree
Comments from my Eastern European friend: this song is an overlap of multiple traditional Bulgarian folk songs. Incredible music and cultural masterpiece.
Which ones in particular? =o
@@DarksiderDarmoset actually no idea ... she just recognized a bunch of them

czcams.com/video/Uy29HcrlC9U/video.html
this is a remix of Esil Duran, but the original song is hundreds, maybe thousands of years old, because the lyrics are in very old Bulgarian
I am not from Eastern, I am Western/central, but I guessed correctly, that I had thought that it is Bulgarian. Because it is very similar to Christopher Tin's song - Dark Clouds (Temen Oblak).
@@DarksiderDarmoset czcams.com/video/HIeaJiObw0g/video.html It's a modern remix, basically a lot of Oj Jano Jano or Jovanke songs from the Balkans so from Croatia to Bulgaria follow this melody.
Every country has a national anthem .
I feel as if this piece is the whole earth's anthem.❤

Back in the day they had Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach, Strauss... In our day we Have Thomas Bergersen, John Powell, Hanz Zimmer, John Williams, and Howard Shore. We live in the second golden age of instrumental. No one will ever convince me otherwise.
Don't forget about James Horner.
Edit: Someone pointed out my mistake on the name of James Horner so thank you. XD
Can't leave out Danny Elfman wither
and Jerry Goldsmith! (an oldie but a goodie)
You mean at least the third golden age. We've had many golden ages of music over the years; just look at Jazz for proof of that.
@@kennyholmes5196 He means of classical music styles.
Thomas I hope that in the future you will be hailed as the mozart of our generation and it would not be an exhaggeration.
Who is in your pic? And i see it so often from other yt accounts?
@@djprojectus Some character from an old Deus Ex game.
Ironically, I too noticed it in all youtube comments and then i set it as my profile pic too, for fun...
@@soeinspast4096 Haha,if this is spreading it will be funny and confusing to see it even more often. I thought is agent Smith from Matrix and thats why has multiplied like him😁 but i see that its not Agent Smith!
Oh yeah yeah
Its a pretty strong line-up to be honest. I mean.. the likes of Hans Zimmer among many other great composers is in it.
Does anyone else get this sudden rush of energy when listening to this sort of music and without even controlling it, like something else takes over and you just find yourself up on your feet, running across the house and dancing, completely subconsciously?
I get it too!
This is what musical masterminds like Mozart had in mind. They wanted to evoke certain emotions and tell a story with them during their orchestral pieces, just like the kind one feels here.
I actually use this music to settle my anxiety attacks. It calms me down and helps me go to a different place.
I have that problem too and it's fine ;)
Music that makes you braver

Asian, North American, Celtic, Eastern European, and more themes I can't even begin to identify, all wound together in a symphony of civilization. Absolutely amazing! This is what music should aspire to be.
A symphony of civilization. I love that. Gorgeous descriptive quote.
I agree. Light comes from crystal
Middle Eastern as well
I hear Irish River Dance as well.
This is why i love how all of us different. If we all have the same culture, then this music wouldn’t exist.
Many drastically different themes that really make me feel the "one million voices" and cultures.
1. Rainforest
2. Desert / Middle Eastern
3. Epic music
4. European classical music
5. Russian
6. Celtic / Gaelic / Irish
7. Chinese (especially CNY style music)
8. American western / country
9. I can't decide. Somehow they are so different yet go so well together, Thomas, work of genius as usual!
Congrats on the 1 million subscribers, honoured to be part of it.
Tbh some of the violin parts I can hear a little bit of Hungarian aswell
The Slavic back-vocals are actually Bulgarian, not Russian. The lyrics are: Леле, Яно, вси се разпопиха, оти си хубава, хубава гиздава /Oh, Yana, everyone got crazy [for you] because you are so beautiful [and] bonny/... It's from a song by Esil Duran. That song itself is a mixture of Bulgarian pop-folk, Turkish pop, and techno, which I find too extravagant, but TSFH made it sound epic.
AMAZING!!!!
Greek language and Instruments
Russian lol
They're using this music for the world cup in Qatar! The moment I heard it I instantly recognized it. I had to come back here and enjoy the full piece once again
wait seriously ? xD
@@epiconehourmusic1435 Yup! TSN Canada is using it for their WC show intro (inclusive of the Qatar theme), bumps and outro. An epic score that I had to Shazam because I was obsessed with the music.
haha wow I noticed too
@@andrewmanswell9875 Insane, I'm in Canada too and noticed instantantly
Really?? this so cool considering the name of the piece and the album , so cool i love tsfh
Can you imagine this being played during the closing ceremony for the Olympics after we finally beat covid-19 it may take a couple of years but I think it would be worth it just to hear this being played by an orchestra made of musicians from all over the world
The entire concept brings tears to my eyes. It would be Glorious!
I love the idea of this.
I hope people know this music
Beating the lack of common sense nowadays would help more in the first place.
Covid won't be beat. It will only fade away when it's ready to fade away, mutating into other viral strains as always happens. But I'm all for the orchestra.
The coolest thing about Two Steps From Hell, besides their awesomely epic tracks, is that they make the music available for public purchase and enjoyment.
Gregory Sainer that’s why i love them.😍
*cough* industry album *cough*
NowlZeo this is a track from Thomas’ new public album “Humanity” - it’ll hopefully be released before the end of this year, if not then early 2020
@@madmadamemimlovesepicmusic519 I was referring to the quote "they make music available for public purchase and enjoyment" and sarcastically mentioning TSFH's industry album which isn't for public xd
This is one of things I love about Thomas Bergerson. He combines nearly every music of the world into a package that says: Human.
Proud to be a Human.
"Proud to be a Human"?? You're zoofobic ^^
@@berpmorph2946 yeah..you tell him man! Smh
@@berpmorph2946 what.. im confused
@@orionsimoniantaylor2298 It's a cheap joke. Zoophobic=afraid of animals. If someone had said something like "Proud to be Straight!" They'd be called homophobic. It's a play on the wording used in the op's comment, but it's not terribly clever.
Not human.. but this dude is literally the GOD OF MUSICS 🤯
I remember discovering YSFH back when Heart of Courage was barely over 50k back in early 2012-2013 when they were known by the few, seeing them succeed gives me pride
Proud to be here since 2011 from that To Glory video uploaded by Epic Music World. As time passed I slowly moved to EDM and pop, but Two steps from hell still holds the place as "that legendary playlist" in my phone.
I got to know TSFH in 2016, still happy I did, but inreal life i only met 2 persons that knew it, the one that introduced me to it and a random classmate, so sad its still actually so little known
I found it my listening to epic music vn and looked them up from there back in 2014, then I spread it to my family. No one else I know listens to it though. Whenever I blast it on speakers around others they always ask me "what is that? That's so cool!"
I discovered TSFH accidentaly whilst looking where were music from "Dancing Line" made. Another level of luckines overall.
Btw "the piano" was based on "Empire of Angels" if someone wanna know
TSFH has been my favorite music since 2009! My mind was blown from the very first listen of Dragon Rider.
Earlier this year I took a very long Lyft ride and blasted this song along the way. The driver could definitely hear the music. After the song ended he signaled to me and asked a lot of questions. I could tell he was impressed by the composition. He told me he was from the Middle East and sometimes had trouble fitting in. We ended up having a really deep conversation about life, love, humanity, and diversity. That ride will always stand out to me. Music really can bring people together.
A new solo album? YES.
I can't help feeling hyped with this piece. It's intense and epic. I love it.
So many different cultural music in this. What can this man not do?
What he can't do?
Easy. Bad music.
One thing he sure always do , *EPIC MUSICS*
"What can this man not do?"
Simple, bad music
I hear Chinese, Caribbean and the violin solos sounds maybe country/western?
I thought I heard a bit of rap/hip hop. Does anyone know what the words mean?
At the very beginning, it was him himself, standing in front of the gates, fighting the fears by himself.
It was his bravery that drew people to join him. Tens, thousands. As more joined him, they fought and went closer to the eternal flames.
And now here we are, one million men, in front of hell, just two steps away!
And never forget, music makes you braver, and that is why, with a million men, they spend their victories not drinking away, but singing many a song into the night, with the most skilled bards throughout the lands finding a place where their talents are accepted, who'd expect that they're calling laid just two steps from hell?
@Conflux yeah, we do

Totally agree
That transition was amazing to experience
What I really love about Two Steps From Hell and Thomas Bergersen's music is that it doesn't present just one image in your mind, but a series of varying scenes; but this, it's unlike anything I have ever heard before.
It's like an instant, a moment that's in our minds, clear as looking through a window. But for each of us, what we see is different, and what visions we tie it to differs. TSFH might make only dozens of soundtracks, but they inspire a million voices.
THIS! This is why i love music like this! It's sad that a lot of people don't experience this because they choose to not let that music, the emotions it stirs in oneself, to really enter the soul. They hear the music blindly
When I listen to their music I can see stories unfold before my eyes. My imagination runs wild and there is no way I can stop it
@@shneancy220 that's exactly what I feel

I'm here thanks to TSN using this song as the theme song for their 2022 World Cup coverage in Canada.
I can't describe how much I felt while listening to this masterpiece. It feels like... being on a small boat on the ocean in the middle of the wild storm, but there is no fear...just the overwhelming feeling of immortality, strenght and god like power.
This soundtrack is pure perfection.
you lier, you just described it
@@starstinger9090 Thats not even the half of it though

I love the way you add that Bulgarian vocals in your music. They add an extra flavor into your music.
I hope there is a version without them. I really love the melody, but I don't enjoy those vocals
Bulgarian choral music is amazing. I've loved them ever since the album Sun.
Hey, help a guy out here. What sound is the Bulgarian music? My foreign ears aren't acquainted.
Hey @Ranstone , Bulgarian choir begins from the position at 1:18. You can hear the group of female voices.
@ Shrikant Potdar
Ah, thanks. I've heard similar style in his "Sun" album, and never knew what heritage is came from. Thanks!
It's been nine months of listening to this track and continuously being amazed at Thomas' musical skills. But I've now reached the point where I absolutely MUST have the rest of the album. Humanity's release cannot come fast enough.
StarPlaty agreed. I read a response that Thomas put to a comment on his Facebook page a couple of months ago that he was hoping if all went according to plan then it would be released this year. If that’s turned out not to be the case then with a bit of luck we’ll see it early next year - seeing as they’re going on tour in March/April then he might do a release to coincide with that. Fingers crossed that we’ll see it sooner rather than later either way!
How many instruments do you want for this song?
Thomas Bergerson: How many are there in the world?
TSFH do more than just write music.
They tell fully detailed stories using only sound.
Paul Gibson Uh... Voice are sound, too. So... I think you need to reword your comment.
N0616JC Productions when I said sound, I included voices as well.
@@N0616JCProductions Point is, he can create a storyline without the listener being required to understand the words, rendering the voices sounds without a specific meaning. That is why they also use artificial language in some songs. In my opinion Thomas is especially good at telling stories, while Nick is more about creating a mood. Depending on what one is looking for, their music seems to be universally applicable.
@@PrimeCircuit and the most awesome is that some of TSFH songs can tell you different stories. This one has told me three. Yet.
There's that, or if you're me, you create a scene for a story while listening to this.

At first I was put off by the vocals, having never heard that style before, but by the end of the song I had absolutely fallen in love with them! This music is unique and beautiful and I can't wait for the album
One of the few songs out there that'll actually make me cry
The ethnic sounding vocals are a hallmark of his two solo albums. Really make them unique.
This vocal was featured in one of his song Starvation before, in his Illusions album.
Those vocals were what instantly caught me! :) But I have heard a lot of diffrent world music/ folk music from diffrent cultures already so these vocals weren't anything new for me.
This is is Slavic ethnic singing ^^ im really glad people love it.
Really love this one. Wow. Amazing work. Big congratz for the 1million subs, really deserved. ;) -Kai

Дивовижний синтез мотивів західної та східної культур. Скільки слухаю, стільки знаходжу його новим та оригінальним. Чудово!
These vocals are from the song "Lele Yano" by bulgarian pop-folk singer Esil Duran.
I'm Bulgarian and I'm not much into her music but your work, Mr. Bergersen, is incredible! The feeling I get from listening it is so motivating! Somewhere at 2:45 I can hear Greek language too and after 4th minute there's a instrumental of Celtic music, I guess? Two Balkan's and one Western Europe's + the main epic/movie music. Awesome work of art!
And what does the greek say ? bulgarian parts of the lyrics here : lyricstranslate.com/fr/thomas-j-bergersen-one-million-voices-lyrics.html
Amazing Bulgarian voices and language!
There's a shift partway through the Celtic section that turns into American fiddle which is awesome because American bluegrass is descended from Scottish highland music. Then just after the 6 minute mark the fiddles give way to Middle Eastern instruments with the oud (a type of guitar-like instrument) and drums. Then the theme shifts closer to far east music near 7 minutes. Afterward they all combine together at once.
Hahaha im greek i can hear that hahaha
it is at 2:40
Japanese in the beginning and after this starting with the Bulgarian singing is GODLIKE EPIC!
Thomas, for very long you're my most favourite compositor. Your masterpieces will travel time and space and will remain immortal.
May the Stars watch over you.
I hadn't noticed the Japanese, interesting train-station touch to it. Thanks for pointing that out!
Are you sure it's Bulgarian because all I can hear is Greek

Wow, I love the flawless mix of different cultural music styles! It’s giving me chills of wonder at the beauty of unification. I’m so grateful for it in the face of what’s happened this week with Russia’s attack on Ukraine. This music gives voice to my love for those people and my hope for unity and peace between the nations.
This is Earth's official anthem.
And Thomas became the world leader from him having achieved world peace through his music.

Wonderful piece! Greetings from Baghdad!

Музикалната композициия е построена върху българската народна песен," Леле Яно". Toва е т.н. фолклорно песнопение. Разбира се, има вплетени и други мотиви. Аз, като българка, разпознах родния фолклор. Благодаря на Thomas Bergersen за това истинско произведение на изкуството!
Можете да продължите запознаването си с българското съдържание на музиката на Томас. Той има прекрасна композиция Fearless. Използва се песен за партизанин, който отива на война.
literal goosebumps every time i hear this play, even three years later. this song is an absolute masterpiece for the ages. it shows how music really is a universal language, with all the different aspects from different areas of the world joining in to create a cacophony of music that comes together so beautifully. if only human nature allowed us to co-exist as perfectly as this.
So glad I found you guys, Two Steps From Hell, back in the 5th (or 6th ?) grade in Elementary when I was just 12 yo. Now here I am, 20 yo and still listening. Great song ! Love you both guys, your work has turned into more that just everyday dull job because it involves at least 1 million people !
I think this is a sentiment many here share. While I haven't known them for quite as long - "only" 5ish years - I most certainly do.
I'm here since... Huh... 2 years? They really make the best music tbh
@@lordwither6764 I founded because of El Rubius OMG and to look for that song is the best decision I have ever made. Tsfh is in another level :')
For me it was youtube recommending me the compilations by SphexAudio. I listened to it for quite some time, but it still took a couple months to actually look for the source and, well, here I am, still hooked.
My cousin brought me into this...always used to see "Archangel" on the screen. when he made me listen to it , at that time , I wasn't anymore a normal 10yo
And here we are, Two Steps From Hell, the channel that has accompanied us for so long finally reaching 1 Million subscribers. A milestone well deserved. Honestly, it has been a long time since I said this, but I think this is the perfect time to do it once again.
Mythic Squad, assemble!
It is the perfect time, co-Colonel. :) Reporting for duty, and what a refreshing saying that is! *preps bow for Dislikes*
I think I speak for all of us here in saying that Two Steps From Hell are one of, if not the greatest composers of our time.
Their music has accompanied me for such a long time and in countless situations.
It is probably hard to quantify how much joy their music has brought to us collectively, how many they inspired to do things they love, how many they helped through hardship and suffering.
Watching that counter tick over alongside my friends in the squad and probably a large number of strangers was probably the best thing I did all month.
Honestly, I don't think I can really put into words what I feel.
So, with One Million Voices we say thank you for being this awesome.
Onward to the next million!
They certainly deserve it.
You are right mister
I am so proud that Bulgaria gets the recognition it deserves for the amazing vocals and some of the Bulgarian Folk music. Браво България
Someone translated the original Folk lyrics:
Есил Дюран - Леле, яно:
Esil Duran - Oh my, Yano! ("Lele" is an exclamation that means something like "Oh my God/Oh heavens/Oh dear!"... u get the sense ;] )
*The name of the girl is Yana, but since the singer is addressing her directly - something like" Hey, Yana"- it becomes YanO :]
Леле Яно вси се разпопиа
Oh my, Yano, everyone is ??? ("Разпопя/Разпопвам" is when a priest becomes a non-priest aka to "Defrock". "Разпопиа" might be the dialect form of "Разпопиха", which means "they unfrocked". The BG part of the song is in old, folklore Bulgarian, so that's why it is not very clear to me what this razpopia means)
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава.
- Why are u beautiful - beautiful and pretty
Леле Яно си се разпопиа
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава. /х2/
- Why are u beautiful - beautiful and pretty
Everybody feels love of her
She's the lady and she's the girl.
Breaking the hearts and go away,
Feel the rhythm and move your way /х2/
Hoppala yarim yaz geldi,
Çarşıya kiraz geldi.
Aldım beş okka kiraz
O da yare az geldi. /х2/
Леле Яно вси се разпопиа
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава.
Леле Яно си се разпопиа
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава.
It's time for music, it's time for love
Here's the summer and we can't stop.
Breaking the rules and go away,
Feel the rhythm and move your way. /x2/
Леле Яно вси се разпопиа
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава.
Леле Яно вси се разпопиа
Оти си юбава - юбава гиздава
Харесвам музиката на Томас Бергенсон точно защото използва нашия фолклор смесен с ритми от целия свят и трябва да се чусваме като най най в целия този ритъм на музика че се чуват наши песни които по друг начин няма да достигнат до голямата публика даже и дане знаят какво се пее рита мът ще ги завладее и ще им даде старт да търсят нашия фолклор
So it's an old Bulgarian song?
@@witherschat Correct. A Bulgarian folklore song, to be precise.
a quick note on defrock vs Разпопиха: defrock= the official removal of the right to be a priest vs Разпопиха in this song's context= the priests in this case voluntarily decide to no longer be clergymen as they could not resist the beauty of Yana :) Разпопиа is a dialect spoken form of the literary Разпопиха . Source: I am a native Bulgarian.
it has Turkish in it as well originaly?
Thomas Bergersen You are truly the most inspiring person on earth !!
Thank you for everything ! Thank you for making us travel in your world with you !

They're so epic and I can almost see infinite landscapes in these pieces... Idk how else to describe it 👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👌
Bruh you forgot Colors of Love.

I actually never heard that one! Thanks for letting me know of it :o
Impossible, Final days of Rome, Our Destiny
check Colors of Love and Pegasus out
Starchild!
it's only been 3 years but it's so nice how the numbers keep going up that people are still listening to this great.
Heard this over a year ago and it is definitely the best piece of music I have ever heard. The sheer scale and power never ceases to impress me, especially from how small it starts. It's just an escalation of sheer musical genius. I love this guy's other work,but this for me is just the absolute height of perfection.
I feel like we have just touched a bit of japanese cyberpunk, arabic, irish/western cultures embedded into a hybrid classical and instrumental frame. It could have not been a more diverse yet still harmonious music, just like your 1 000 000 (ONE MILLION) subscribers. The title said it all..
Congrats, keep on reinventing yourself ;)
Totaly agree, some how Ghost in the shell reminded me for similar vibe
*_OKAY THEN._*
I wasn't expecting that.
It's so... wow...
unfathomably....
inexplicable?
I now understand not being able to "even."
This piece also brings a whole new meaning to the phrase 'one in a million.'
Moi Lar completely agree
I remember listening to this when it frist came out. It feels like you're taking a trip through the world and traveling through so many cultures. It's amazing how much music can capture.
I've never heard such an ambitious fusion of styles, nor have I felt so many feelings all at once. I'm literally trying not to cry as I type this. AMAZING work.
IN 2:43 i have heard also GREEK languange for about 4 seconds !!! Thank you so much Thomas !!!
What did they say?
What did it say
Tell us
@@ahmadjaber7546 : «πάμε να τα πάρουμε Γιαννάκη μαζί μας. Αυτός είσαι» . It is something that does NOT make sense ... but certainly it was a big surprise to me , to hear Greek in a TSFH's piece !
It is bulgarian actually. Maybe it sounded almost the same as greek? That is probably why it didnt make sense
@@hitsigekever6363 Νo , it is Greek , Bulgarian are completely different languange , both at structure and hearing . Anyway , that Greek sentence at the piece is : " Go little John there to take them with us , "this is you " " !!
This piece has so many different worldly cultural styles all mashed into one seamless and epic track. Even though it has such a wide variety of styles, it all still sounds like one cohesive piece. Amazing, as always, TSFH.
He has already shown it in Impossible, but this proves it once again. His capacity to seamlessly mix different styles of music is truly amazing.
What I love the most about TSFH is the way they can blend different styles, genres and even cultures into one. They have a real talent for that. It's breath taking. This is a perfect example.
My favorite part is from 0:00 to 9:05
But seriously, this entire song is pure gold, even though I can't understand a single word sang, I still understand the song, ya know what I men? It is impossible to listen to it just once.
I'm so glad I discovered TSFH back in 2010. It's been a Hell of a decade for epic music.
Same here
I discovered them about 2005
On 2:42, there's a Greek voice saying (translated) "Johnny, let's got to take them together ...(sample cuts)...That a boy!"
I remember being deployed in iraq in 2010 when i first started listening to TSFH and TB the music helped me get through alot of the stuff going on then and now i hope you guys keep making masterpieces because thats what you guys do
Thomas has overdone himself once again ❤🎶...
The flow of this Song is incredible 🤩😍
The entire human race is here! Greetings from Iraq
Hello!! I wish you beautiful day, many luck, and something beautiful and awesome.
Greetings from Czechia. :)
Hello from the US!
Hello from Canada hope everyone is having a wonderful day listenibg to this awesome music
Hi, from Finland!
hello from the UK.
Wow, it's like 'Around the world in 9 minutes' :D Love it!
Listening to this in sep 2023 and I'll come back later, surely
I feel like pressing 'like' only once is dishonest.
Well, if you press it twice, it removes it
@@minipivot1 I guess I have to press it 3 times then.

Hu -> You / Man -> Mankind ? / I -> I / Ty -> Thank you
You, Mankind, I thank you.
Thank you too Thomas.
Cathiane I saw it more as - hu-man I Ty=thank you
Human I thank you
"You're - Many - I - Thank You", since it's a 1-million-subscribers special. xD
H U Man I T Y
Heart you man, I thank you.
Tanaka what is the meaning of these names?
That's crazy... That's TSFH's biggest strenght. Anyone can interpret musics, lyrics and titles as they wish.There are so many possible meanings that everyone can find one that matches their thoughts and emotions.
band:So which type of Symphony to play for our 1Million subs?
Thomas: *Yes.*
Rhino Ceros r/InclusiveOR
Imagine how amazing this would be live!
One million voices, and I'm incredibly proud of being one of them.
Thank you Thomas. ❤
If earth had a theme song this would be it
Fr.
I agree
Have you heard his creation of earth soundtrack ? It's better
@@muhafizali14 Any Idea where I can find that?
@@wmarkwitherspoon go in CZcams search and type creation of earth Thomas bergerson.
What a great musical journey!
One unique journey I must say. A damn gift!
It's finally released boys!
Hey David Knowles, so you're prehistoric huh....age 60. Well, my man I am 76 and have loved most all kinds of music. About 4-5 yrs ago I found TSFH and I can say.....wow & wow again. Never heard of Epic Music, but boy did I love it and all kinds to. I have to say Thomas Bergerson, is a true master of his own music, he is at the top of my list. I have lots of his work and TSFH. I have an addiction though ^_^ a good kind, music and the Epic Albums of TSFH & Thomas Bergerson....look him up on Utube.
Perfect for a million subs!!
The sound of being alive in 2019
one of the best epic tracks i've EVER listened to!!! 🎵🎶 goosebumps all over my whole body, edpecially at the celtic climax moment at 05:30! 😍😍 awesome what can be accomplished mixing up different styles of world music!
I remember back when this song first came out, I commented saying something along the lines of "This song is so great, they deserve more appreciation than the mumble rappers do". I deleted it out of embarrassment about a year ago, but here is me trying to be a bit more mature:
All music is beautiful. All of it, from rap to pop to country to blues, songs ancient and songs new. If it makes you FEEL something, anything at all- inspired, happy, sad- then it's beautiful to you, and should not be put down just because of its genre.
That's what I think this song was meant to be about, and I missed it when I first heard it. It's about all of the people, all of their music, coming together from around the world. One million voices, but, in the end, it's all Music and something beautiful to you, something that everyone knows. Like a language that everyone speaks. That is what this song was meant to convey, and I'm glad I understand it better now. Have an amazing day, all one million of you
Saw emerald princess : it's okay i already bought the entire album ...
Saw One million voices : OK LET'S FKIN GO !
Saame man xDD I was like oh cool i'll get it when i have the money (i need to save for 20 bucks yeah hahaha) and then THIS. AND OMG WHAT A FEELING THROUGH MAH VEINS
9 minutes of pure well-being. Thank you Thomas.
That transition at 3:38 gets me every. Single. Time. I just get so thrilled. I love listening to this song at this time of year now. Reviewing what happened in the world and feeling a sense of unity through this music.
Bulgaria - the land of the epic music! Thank you, Thomas!
