It was as overwhelming as when Tori sang from deep down. "It's as lonely as I expected it to be... A sorrowful yet empty sound tinged with a silent pain one cannot express with words. Good job, my dear. This is most definitively your style of music although you are capable of singing other kinds albeit not all kinds," Eric responded softly while shaking his hands briefly to make the partly formed violin return to it's invisible mist form. He'd been drifting with the feelings set into the music to the point of fixing to join in with his violin. Opening his eyes once again, he briefly cleared his throat and took up what looked like the militarized style of parade rest. "Five Finger Death Punch is your next group mostly for the fact that I'd like to hear if you can do as he does with his voice."
xXxXxGlancing briefly at Yue who had an electric guitar sitting in his lap, he shifted his gaze back to Ophelia just as Yue started up with a tune. As the music started playing, his body seemed to relax to the point where his arms were hanging by his sides. "I can't quite get it as well as Tori does, but you'll get the point of how the song is being sung... Twisting and turning, unable to sleep. Do ThE vOiCeS eVeR sToP?! My thoughts speak louder the more I resist. AnD tHeY'rE dRiViNg Me InSaNe! Do ThEy EvEr Go?! Inside, I'm a danger to myself. I'm A dAnGeR tO mYsElF! Inside, I'm a prisoner of my own hell.

I'm a danger to you all and I'm a danger to myself..." he started in a smooth rumble while waiting for Yue to get to a certain point in his playing before starting up in a song that seemed like it'd be smooth only to make it seem like a person fighting with an inner demon. While Tori was far more used to fighting certain inner demons, Eric had a general idea of how that inner struggle was due to his own struggle of debating letting Tori tear the vampires apart by leaving him in the labs or taking him with Yue and him in their escape. While the vampires deserved it, family came first and he would never leave family in the hands of a vampire ever again.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia pulled out her notepad, taking notes on the song. It wasn't anything she was very familiar with, what with spending most of her time listening to much less...angry music. She could hear why people listened to it, though. It held much more than just anger. It was torment, real, bitter torment. When he finally stopped, Ophelia stood once more, her eyes solely on her teacher. "Eric...that was...unexpected," she said, blue orbs studying him. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

In all honesty, I am very calm and collected when put under pressure, but that doesn't mean I haven't come to a crossroads in my life where a part of me wants to do one thing while another wishes to do another. It is an inner turmoil that is best described through the way the song is played out. As I've stated once before, Tori does it much better than I," Eric smiled lightly while quickly returning his militarized stance of parade rest. Glancing briefly at Yue, the other male simply gave a slight nod as if agreeing with Eric on the youngest boy of the trio getting that song down so much more easily. As his eyes returned to Ophelia, his cheerful smile seemed to have returned without the slightest hint that he'd exposed that sense of inner turmoil through singing. "As is pretty obvious, the lead singer is capable of singing in a gentle, smooth voice yet can switch between that and something like a scream or shout that is slightly rough around the edges. By doing this, he seems to add to the feeling of fighting with inner demons that are compelling him to do things that makes him a danger to not only himself, but to others as well. Sometimes these inner demons can be a side of you that you've never known before or they can be that of something else, something unexplainable through scientific methods other than calling it insanity, delirium, psychotic rampages or other various terms I won't go into. There is also the fact that by projecting his voice as he does, he shows how passionate he is about the things he sings. Make sense?"

Come angelis et pueris fideles inveniamur. Attollite portas, principes, vortes et elevamini, portae aeternales. Et introibit rex gloriae Quis est iste Rex gloriae?"

"Spare me the Latin and let's just get this over with," she sighed, readying herself fro the song he was trying to get her to sing.

Singing softly along with the music, Elizabeth closed her eyes and let the melody wash over her. Soon her wings unfurled from her back and a soft yellow glow fell over her and the piano. Sighing when the piece was done, Elizabeth walked out of the music room, in the search for people.

Mayah Playah Never learned it from someone other than a band. I still emotion_bigheart Enigma. “ Sιηg σηcє αgαιη ωιтн мє, συя sтяαηgє δυєт. мч ρσωєя σvєя чσυ gяσωs sтяσηgєя чєт. αηδ тнσυgн чσυ тυяη ғяσм мє тσ gℓαηcє вєнιηδ, тнє ρнαηтσм σғ тнє σρєяα ιs тнєяє ιηsιδє чσυя мιηδ... ”  xXxXxEric “Phantom” Phantomen ☆ XXϮяαηscєηδιηg ϮιмєXX ☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXxSmiling at the pink haired girl's response, he crossed his arms behind his back while listening to her sing for him. Once again, he had somehow returned to being the phantom of the opera, luring a girl in just to sing for him. As she finished the song, he just slightly nodded before shifting his feet slightly. "Alright. The growl-like scream thing isn't your forte. In fact, we'll just avoid anything similar to that with you. Do you know any of Enigma's songs at all? They tend to switch between male and female vocalists as well as being instrumental only and instrumental with vocal accompaniment. They also vary in languages instead of just being all English or all Latin or even all Spanish. They're very traditional and international although few seem to know who they are," Eric hummed cheerfully while pretending he hadn't just spoken Latin with relative ease. He learned something new about the girl too. Now, which song of Enigma to do? Gravity of Love? Je'Taime 'Til My Dying Day? Return to Innocence? "Such a tough choice, but Sadeness will be something we'll avoid since it's in Latin and apparently you hate the language. Besides that, I do not believe you should even try singing the verses I did for you."
xXxXx"Shouldn't she just be glad you're trying to expand her vocal abilities from 'private singer' to 'talented songstress'?" Yué asked in a somewhat bored tone only to get a slight glare from Eric. Sighing lightly, he nodded before leaning back against a box. "Got it. Procedamus in pace, Yué. Procedamus in pace."

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide "It's not that I hate Latin," she said, ignoring Yué and leaning on the piano. "It's just that I've been exposed to it most of my life, and at one point, it gets tiresome. My father wanted me to learn it, and while I partially did, I grew more irritated with it than interested. After a while, I stopped attending lessons and just gave up the language." Looking up at him expectantly, the teen blinked and waited for him to decide what to make her sing. "I can handle Spanish, if you would like me to sing in Spanish. I'm also proficient in French, Polish, various forms of Russian, and, if needed, Japanese." All he had to do was say the word, and Ophelia would sing in any language for him. Anything for her Angel of Music. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you

Mayah Playah I'm not surprised. No one seems to know who Enigma is. -sigh- “ Sιηg σηcє αgαιη ωιтн мє, συя sтяαηgє δυєт. мч ρσωєя σvєя чσυ gяσωs sтяσηgєя чєт. αηδ тнσυgн чσυ тυяη ғяσм мє тσ gℓαηcє вєнιηδ, тнє ρнαηтσм σғ тнє σρєяα ιs тнєяє ιηsιδє чσυя мιηδ... ”  xXxXxEric “Phantom” Phantomen ☆ XXϮяαηscєηδιηg ϮιмєXX ☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXx"That goes to the not caring for it pile which is a sub-genre of the disinterest pile and therefore a sub-genre of dislikes in my book. That makes it a sub-genre of a sub-genre just like dubstep. Alright. The song I'll have you sing first is La Puerto del Cielo, or The Heaven's Gate. This is one of Enigma's male vocal songs that is in Spanish," Eric responded calmly while briefly rotating his wrist so a flute could solidify in his hand. After handing the flute to his brother, he cleared his throat and slightly readjusted how he was standing to a far more relaxed version of standing up straight. As he opened his lips, the words just seemed to roll off his tongue with relative ease. Like Yué, however, his gaze briefly flicked up into the catwalk above the stage as if he'd caught something's presence lurking up there.
xxxxxOf course he was watching them. It'd been some time since he'd last shown even the slightest flicker of himself to them, but the halfbred vampire still seemed to enjoy listening to his music even when the halfbreed had originally wrote it. He was invisible, yes, but his magic was easy to distinguish from anyone else's magic. His was ancient sorcery after all. There were four at most who still knew how to do a little of ancient sorcery, but this rebellious halfbreed knew more than anyone else had and yet he'd sealed most of his magic away for reasons he still hadn't explained. So long as he didn't interfere, he could remain up above the stage for all he cared.

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide Ophelia sighed softly as she listened to him sing. He always sounded so beautiful when he sang, and he seemed to glow from within. Resting her chin on her fist, the pink-haired teen swayed slowly from side to side to the music, trying her best not to swoon. She barely noticed their directed attention on the hanging catwalk. With a small smile, Ophelia flicked her hair over her shoulder, fluttering thick eyelashes at her teacher in an effort to blink away her starry eyes. Heavens above, he's attractive, she thought, suddenly aware of the heat overcoming her. Shrugging off her blazer and somehow keeping the straps of her top in place, the teen returned her focus to Eric. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you Dantes_river Well, now I know who Enigma is.

"Fun fact; the original artist who merely made himself human just long enough to create the CDs for Enigma actually had a girlfriend and her little brother help him branch out his written music. An even more fun fact is that the girlfriend actually hit him in the head with a dictionary after calling him a pervert and yet she was older than he was," Eric hummed cheerfully while flashing that ever so gentle smile of his at Ophelia. He then took up a seat in the air while giving her a brief hand gesture. "Would you mind singing said song for me or do you need to go over the lyrics again?" "Yes, dearie. Demonstrate your abilities for the original male vocalist of Enigma. It seems he enjoys hearing people sing his songs well and even when they butcher it, not that you do either... Eh? Great. Even he's ganging up on me for minor jokes..."

Ophelia IncendiaTheme songDon't give up, it's just the hurt that you hide "You mean, the original male vocalist of Enigma is here?" she asked, head tilted and her eyes wide. She looked up at the rafters, large blue eyes searching for life. "If he is...I hope he enjoys my rendition of the song." Taking a deep breath, Ophelia nodded to the Phantom and his brother, waiting for the music to begin as she started to sing. While her voice was much smoother than that of the original singer, Ophelia brought a sincere sense of understanding to the song, and stared out at the empty seats as she sang. Her voice rang through the auditorium, and when she at last finished the song, the teen bent slightly at the waist, her knuckles white as she gripped the side of the piano, catching her breath. She hadn't expected it to take so much out of her. Once she was breathing normally once again, Ophelia turned to Eric and smiled tenderly. "I think I like that song," she said to him. When you're lost inside, I will be there to find you Dantes_river Dearie? Someone needs to stop chilling with Nikolai so much xD

Mayah Playah Just randomness actually, but I wouldn't be surprised if they haven't just randomly overheard Nikolai and picked up his habit ever so briefly. They hide in the walls after all, with the exception of areas labelled as female only areas. >:3 “ Sιηg σηcє αgαιη ωιтн мє, συя sтяαηgє δυєт. мч ρσωєя σvєя чσυ gяσωs sтяσηgєя чєт. αηδ тнσυgн чσυ тυяη ғяσм мє тσ gℓαηcє вєнιηδ, тнє ρнαηтσм σғ тнє σρєяα ιs тнєяє ιηsιδє чσυя мιηδ... ”  xXxXxEric “Phantom” Phantomen ☆ XXϮяαηscєηδιηg ϮιмєXX ☆ XXєтєяηαℓ ℓιғєXX xXxXxGently smiling at Ophelia's performance, and the sound of a second flute playing as if from nowhere, Eric glanced up at the third male entity as if asking his opinion. "He's always around, Ophelia, just like what remains of the phantom race. It's finding him that is the trouble seeing as if he doesn't want to be found, he won't be. If he doesn't mind being noticed by those who can see what is believed to be invisible to the human eye, he would prefer remaining in places few go to in that form of invisibility so he can be alone," he murmured gently before nodding slightly and returning his oddly colored eyes to the pink haired girl. "The original wishes to tell you that he's pleased you enjoy La Puerto del Cielo. He also stated that you did we'll with his song and should try looking into the others he's written alongside a woman known as Enya. She is the one who did the song May It Be from The Lord of the Rings soundtrack. In fact, he's requested you try singing one of her songs for him."
xxxxx"Heheh. Oh but of course he does. He is missing her although he'll deny it. They must've gotten into one of those bad arguments based on the glare he's giving me. Eh? He's turned visible again?" Yué chuckled while watching the air ripple briefly before suddenly exposing a tall male with short dirty-blonde hair that appeared to be as young as Eric if not Tori. He was, of course, sitting against the railing with his fingers twirling a flute and his black jeans and dark grey hoodie making it clear he wasn't really obsessed with his appearance.
xxxxx"It's not because I miss her. I heard how she performed Evanescence and based on how Amy Lee sings, she is very much capable of singing Enya's music. Phantom, feel free to explain to your brother," the blonde explained ever so smoothly while making the flute vanish and pulling out a pack of cigarettes. Eric nodded slightly before crossing his arms behind his back and taking in a breath. "Amy Lee is a sopranist meaning she sings in higher pitches similar to that of how you do Yué. That doesn't mean she just floats around her familiar and comfortable territory of high pitches. She's capable of making her voice a deeper version of soprano singers. Enya is capable of doing the same thing with her voice. An example of this is how Enya starts off low every time she starts saying 'may it be'. As for Amy Lee, her example is by how she starts up high then drops down low in pitch as she goes 'do what you, what you want if you have a dream for better'. There are many similarities in voices if one listens close enough even if the genre of music is different. Sorry to say, Mr. Original, but Enya will have to come after I've finished my lessons. Keep your smoking up there please," Eric explained in a gentle tone although he gave his voice a hum that lowered and raised in pitch during his examples. At his words to the blonde male, the male on the catwalk just gave the trio a thumbs up while lighting up his cigarette.
