I miss you dad. Resting in peace since 15th of January, 2019. He went way too soon. This song means the world to me.
Take care ☹️
Iam sorry for your loss!!
Same here, fucking cancer..(56) and now I'm diagnosed with the same..(32) don't know what to do.. I guess that I will just have to wait for the end..
@@TheZknot Oh man, I'm so sorry. What type of cancer do you get so young if I may ask? My dad, uncle and grandpa died from same prostate cancer. I guess I'm next. I'm 32 and thinking that I should go to tests regularly.
Hey Rolle , take care ! My dad went when i have almost four Years , but he is still with me on my heart and memorises . Love You Dad !
When i miss my dear mother i just listen this song. I know i will meet you again once...
stratovarius are aging like a fine wine, who would knew.
I loss my father a few days ago, I feel sad but after a long battle against a disease I know that now Dad rest 🙏🏽. I hope what the song said will be true for Dad and me...
"I know
We'll meet you again"
Greetings and respect from Ecuador 🇪🇨
I always come back to this song years later. It really hits my heart, a remembrance to those who have gone on. Thank you Stratovarius
RIP Mom and Dad, June 21st, 2021 and October 20th, 2016. You can both rest easy from the pain
Stratovarius, this is just not fair. You can't just make incredible songs like this that dominate my life. Please. I can't handle how good you are!
Hai
lololo ikr
It's funny how people tend to bash everything new coming from Stratovarius claiming "the band is dead", "it's not the same as they used to be", "it sounds like Cain's Offering". What this band needed was a change of phase, because going in the direction TT pretended was going to be the real dead end for the band. I personally prefered to had Polaris as the follow up of the self titled than having yet another Elements wannabe record like Revolution Renaissance. Don't get me wrong, as a man following Stratovarius for a long time, I still consider masterpieces like Episode, Visions and Destiny to be the best the band has done, and still find Infinite to be their very best record up to this day. Now onto this new song, do I find it good or bad? Can I make a full statement about the whole album with just one song? It'd be stupid of me to do so, I personally like the mix of the heavyness this songs carries from Nemesis with those riffs and the catchiness and melodic chorus that makes me feel I'm listening to something from the Elements era once again. I can see why people still belive this "new" Stratovarius is not the same and that they've "lost their charm", but progression is what makes a band to be alive, and that's what I've seen since 2009, something I haven't felt back in 2005, and I yearn for more of this to come
Well said bro. That's what real fans think...strato forever
ggonza43 The fact that impresses me is that Strato toured with Amaranthe and they are able to put their pattern to a strato song and sound like that! Evolution is the word because the lineup that Stratovarius has a lot of talent to explore new musical patterns to add on a trite way to make power metal to make good and actual music, being a sort of 2015 power metal.
ggonza43 Cannot upvote this enough. And the fact that makes me unsure whether to laugh or to be angry is that there still are people who bring up the whole Tolkki stuff. I mean, it would have made sense if he alone created masterpieces that were way better than what Strato did, but let's face the fact: that's not the case. I have a lot of respect for Tolkki and his previous works and I find some stuff he releases now enjoyable, but not more than that. If something like that was released under Stratovarius name, I would've been disappointed - and don't think I'm the only one. Tolkki era was great, but it would have come to an end no matter what. And after that, there had to be something - something new. Sorry for the wall of text and weird phrasing if there's any. I just spoke (well, tried to) with a heavily trollki'd person and had to let it out. Long live Stratovarius.
ggonza43 I guess I just haven't seen a lot of backlash against the newer albums. I think most fans are pretty willing to accept the albums for what they are, which has been very good.
ggonza43 Jani Liimatainen has writing credits as collaborator on this album, that's why it might sound like Cain's Offering. Still I liked the song, and I love this new Strato
Hermosa canción 🎵 siempre que la escucho recuerdo a mi madre 😢 la escucho mucho. Nos volveremos a ver, tú me estás esperando…
RIP Dad, I dedicate this song to you. I will love you always
my mother was gone this week, when im listening this song i fell her nearby me... thx stratovarius, is a beatiful song.
Hermoso estribillo... me sigo sacando el sombrero con los finlandeses, cualquier adjetivo sobra. BRAVO y gracias por seguir llenando de verdadera música este mundo.
Si nemesis es su mejor album
Estos tipos dejaron su huella para siempre en el power metal, larga vida a STRATOVARIUS!
They are more creative now. Keep it up...long live stratovarius
How i miss my grand father, gone on march 2018, he was such a big part of my childhood, this song brings so much feelings to me, Stratovarius is just in another level
I have listened to Stratovarius, from "Future Shock" to "The Lost Saga". For me Stratovarius is, was and continues to be Stratovarius.
until the end of days not the lost saga
You mean Fright Night?.
@@JCCG1989 The album is called Fright Night, but the first song on the track is Future Shock. Much like how the latest album at the time was Eternal, but the final song on that track was The Lost Saga.
It could be because I'm only 20 and don't have the nostalgia that the old-school fans have. But having listened to all of their extensive discography, I really believe that Elysium and Nemesis are the best albums they've done and that Tolkki leaving the band has given so much more creative freedom to create said albums to begin with. I do adore the old stuff as well, particularly Dreamspace for being so dark and atmospheric which is quite unusual for the band. But let's look at the supposed classic albums from Fourth Dimension to Infinite. They're all enjoyable, but they reek of a kind of 'samey' feeling, particularly in the way that Tolkki formulates his songs. A lot of the songs have a similar build-up, chord progression, chorus, dual guitar/keyboard solo section, end with chorus again feel. The songs from the last few albums, on the other hand, all sound so fresh and of its time, which I guarantee wouldn't have been the case if Tolkki was still in the band. Don't believe me? Well for all the Tolkki purists out there, I ask that you listen to his Symfonia 'In Paradisum' album or his recent Avalon projects. The songs on those albums, especially the former all sound like they were ripped from the old Stratovarius albums with no sense of originality at all. People can say what they wish, I believe this is one of the best singles Stratovarius has done so far. I'll respect the old gems they've created in the past, but I will stand by the fresh new band that have reinvented themselves and are allowing to push themselves to new heights. I look forward to purchasing Eternal when it finally comes out.
MetalJoshi156 yea superbly put..im plenty older than you MetalJoshi and have been a fan since the turn of the millennium when i first discovered them for myself, and while some of their back catalogue does contain some of the brightest jewels in metal and progressive metal history, i feel Nemesis is their best body of work to date and love their progression and new freshness. Stratovarius will always be one of the most vital bands while they live i believe.
MetalJoshi156 Thank God! Thank you for saying that I've saying that ever since Elysium or even Polaris, it pisses me off how Tolkki fanboys can't get over the fact he's gone and insist on saying the old stuff is the only good music from Stratovarius, Nemesis was such a brilliant album, straight forward but effective, powerful, Elysium on the other showed a more progressive and dark side of stratovarius, still it was amazing, I just feel that since Tolkki went away, many new symphonies, melodies sounds have made their way into the band's sound, there's much more diversity, so much more enjoying.
Gabriel Sá Pinto Exactly!
MetalJoshi156 Well, I'm 24 years old and I've been listening to Stratovarius since I had 10. I not a hardcore fan and its just my opinion, but I agreed with you. After Tolkki left they just got better and better. Nemesis is one of their best works so far. I can't compare with the old stuff, because I think the last album is very different from the past albums, I think it is more power metal and less symphonic. But listening the two singles from this new album I think they came with a nice mixture between the old and new stuff. I really like the eletronic stuff in Nemesis.
+Diego Souza I dont think Nemesis beats Polaris or Elysium in the post-Tolkki era (especially the former, Polaris is just epic), but I think it's the stepping stone to getting to Eternal. Personally there are only 3 songs I REALLY like off Nemesis: Dragons, Nemesis and Fireborn (Japanese bonus track written by Lauri). Other than that, meh. However, based on this song AND the studio documentary where snippets of Lost saga and other songs were played, this is definitely the best Strato-album since tolkki left the band.
I think this song is not just for ppl we lost but for persons not in our everyday life anymore as well. Friends or partners that just changed and became someone else ppl we grew apart with.. still we know that somewhere inside them is the person we once knew and cherished.
When I first herd the intro I was like "where is this going". and then all of a sudden EPIC AmAZING EXPLOSION OF SOUND I'm pretty sure that is how the Big Bang started
I lost my grandmother three years ago and my father when I was a toddler. Last week I was able to visit both of their graves. Tonight I'm raising a beer to them while listening to this song. Thank you Stratovarius, hope to see you live again soon.
Es natural que el grupo haga cosas nuevas y particularmente me parecen que las hacen bien, pues no se desnaturaliza. Esta canción es bastante buena. Para mi Startovarius sigue siendo Stratovarius
Epa, eres un paisanooo... Saludos Igual para mi strato sigue siendo una tremenda agrupaciòn! ⚜
Los tolki fasn dicen eso.. pero no se fijan en como esta tolkki hoy..
Totalmente de acuerdo strato por siempre ⚜️🇫🇮
exacto hay muchos fanboys de Tolkki que desprecian al actual Stratovarius solo porque el ya no esta en la banda, Pero la verdad es que desde que llego Matias no ha habido un solo disco malo de Stratovarius, ni hablar del ultimo disco que salio hace un par de dias, una verdadera obra maestra. Larga vida a Stratovarius!
@@Jesus_95 survive obra maestra y que las viudas de tolkki sigan llorando xD
Man, what a killer song with a great message. Lost my father a few years back, and this song really hit home. Beautiful job as usual, Stratovarius. 👍
Stay strong dude.
Same hear my brother! Lets make them proud and never forget them
Your colors fade to grey
It sounds more like Cain's offering than Stratovarius to me,but amazing song anyway :)
I can't understand people who say that latest Stratovarius work is bad. They have managed to make their sound much better (tighter, heavier guitars, drums, very technical riffs) at the same time keeping their signature characteristics. They have always used a lot of electronic elements and synths in their music so that hasn't changed to worse. If they truly have changed they have become even better than before.
FrostlordTheWizard anteriormente as outras bandas eram comparadas ao stratovarius pelo seu som unico e influente. hoje o stratovarius é comparado a outras bandas por perder isso e ter se tornado uma banda comum a exemplos de cain´s offering, amaranthe, meia duzia de outras melodicas progressivas.
+Samuel Snehota Dont compare to Hunting high and low or Black diamond because those songs exist and are 2 of the most important songs in their live setlists. Bands have to branch out, and the best thing that ever happened was Jani and Timo working so closely together these past couple years. Cain's offering is EPIC beyond belief and Jani's influence on the sound of Stratovarius is exactly what Strato needed to move ahead into the future.
Back in my day everyone was allowed to be themselves and have opinions-
Oh wait that never happened did it
Stratovarius are making very good albums and songs in the last decade, but you can't say that they are better, or best said, they make better songs, when we have there Infinite or Visions....
For some reason I started crying.
So do I.. But I know the reason why..
me too... i lost my close friend a year ago so... you know...
Same
Same here, I'm missing my dad 😭😭
Touching a
I never speak about you
Never say your name
It's not that I don't care
It's just that I'm not there
This is so true story...
A few months before this album's release, my mother passed away from health issues that had lingered for at least a decade or more.
Even if it's futile, never stop wanting better for those who didn't find it in life.
The hope for a better life shouldn't be diluted by the presence of death.
es el mejor grupo para mi opinion
11th is my birthday....
thanks Stratovarius!
***** There is no connection between your birthday and new Stratovarius record.
Konrad Zola yes... im my mind!
***** I got the same with Paradise Lost's new album. June 2nd :p
Konrad Zola ...Except the date.
***** Oh damn... It must be hard to go to people and say like:
Pedro: "HEYY YOU KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS"
Friends: "Yes, it's the anniversary of thousands of people dying in a terrorist attack :("
Pedro: "NO IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!"
Friends: "..."
That change, powerful chorus on this track ! Amazing, wait for the album !
I´m fan of the band since 1998, and I can say for sure that today Stratovarius is in their best phase, imho. I love Episode, Fourth dimension, etc. and lots of stuff tolki did with the band, but the best thing for stratovarius was him out.
Luiggi Fiorucci é de fuder XD
Luiggi Fiorucci é de fuder XD
Luiggi Fiorucci True.
+Luiggi Fiorucci I agree, Tolki definitely had some great moments that's for sure, and the band's new sound that they got out of "Nemesis" and "Elysium" have been phenomenal. Can't wait to listen to their next album.
i was a big fan for Strato since 1994 . Before kotipelto era.. And it was very sad when strato almost was over after Elements.. Now strato is in a good shape an for me this is enough. therefore new albums are totally amazing.
I love how clean and beautiful the melody is,and the structure of the organs.
As for the voice of Timmo,just astonishing!!!
Sound fantastic, I would kind of preferred to hear a deeper/ more epic song but then again it is a single so it's going to sound a little bit more commercial than other songs on Eternal. As a whole the song reminds me of the title track of Nemesis, not that that's a bad thing!
I wish people would stop criticizing a great band making great music just because it's not what they want to hear. If thats the case, then fine, just vote with your feet (or your ears) and stop listening!! It really is as easy as that.
Stratovarius have made 15 albums now over a 30 year career; you can't keep on making the same album over and over because then the fans and the band themselves will get bored and stale. Bands have to keep with the times, and more importantly, make the music they want instead of what fans say they should, because thats not art, thats fanservice.
I think after all the band has been through and all the years they have made music, they should be free to make whatever they feel like at this point. And the fact that they still make amazing music and still manage to put a fresh spin on things with every album deserves nothing but respect. Good job Strato :)
It sound like Cain´s Offering because this song was composed by Jani Liimatainen... and Kotipelto
one of the best epic metal band ever
Thank you... this song make me feel a lot of things... i have lost very important people in six years ... Dad 1year ago, grandpa 6 years ago and the love of my life 4 years ago... so when i ear this song, some tears appear.
I love you and i miss you mom, rest in peace 07/07/2021
"Still you're shining in the dark
You're still safe within my heart"
O melhor momento dessa música incrivel musica.
Nemesis+ Elysium+ Infinite= This song.
Great stuff guys.
Beautiful lyrics. I always cry when listening this song, it remembers me the love of my mother
Weirdly enough, after losing my mom just recently nothing made me cry, yet whenever I listen to this I can't help myself, and tears do start to fall. Still love it, though it was hard to listen to it for the first few weeks :)
Good song as always :) The guitars sounds amazing.
This song is hauntingly beautiful, tears me up every time.
Great Song
Haluaisi sanoa jotain merkittävää, kuten somessa on tapana, mutta laitan
brilliant song. and yes as others have said, if a band changes their sound they moan. if its a good song, its a good song, period, this is a good song. nice and melodic. don't like it, listen to something else!
amo este maldito tema!!! voy amar ese disco!! quiero que ya sea septiembre!!!
Me gusta el sonido de esta rola más al comienzo grande stratovarius una de mis bandas favoritas albums episode, visions, destiny, infinite, elements, pt 1 y 2 etc que grandes discos nos has dado stratovarius por siempre forever stratovarius lml lml
Me sorprendió mucho lo que me encanta esta canción, hace ya unos cuantos años que me encantan y aunque algunos integrantes no estén confió en que no me decepcionarán.
I sent my love named YS, she was the most beautiful woman i've ever seen. She's now rest in real peace. I hope someday I will follow her, and if we meet again, i won't lose you. stay forever in my heart, see you soon, very soon my dear.

150.000 Views? Why is it counting only my views?! XD
Awful video... epic song. It's courious, but it seems the best bands make the worst videos, and the best videos seem to try to hide their horrible music (pop, reggaeton, etc). So, I stay with the bands of horrible videos.
This song is Wonderful Mega Fantastica 👍🎶🤘💪
Great song!! I mean... compared to many other (more innovative) melodic power metal bands it's not really that special, but there's one thing you can always rely on with Stratovarius: When you buy a Stratovarius album, it SOUNDS like a Stratovarius album. No more, no less. Sometimes that's a comfortable feeling and a very good thing!
This is so beautiful. I just wished power metal will continue to grow. The lyrics and meaning of this song is SO BEAUTIFUL.
I love you pappa and mamma ❤️ We will meet again someday ❤️❤️❤️
As a newer fan to Stratovarius, I will never know the true motivation to this song, but as somebody who lost someone in '15 I feel this sadness in my life lift when I hear this song, because it reminds me of her.
Your blood is my blood, and your heart is my heart. R.I.P brother.
Guys there's a new Stratovarius Album coming out it's called Eternal. Hopefully this message will be helpful.
Update : I have come to inform you, there's a song called Shine in the Dark. You can watch the Official Lyric Video here.
the first time i understood the song ( i speak spanish) and now i got the same conclusion... its about someone who has lost his son. Nevermind still is a great song
This song is so powerful. Makes me remember my late dad and how I can no longer make peace with him but still I am his living legacy
RIP
I can't listen to this song or "Forever" without crying. Miss you mom 😔
Not much of a seasoned fan here, I've only been a fan since Polaris came out, but damn these guys just never quit. To me their music has aged like a fine wine. Regardless of some of the cheddar(I'm a firm believer that power metal isn't power metal with out it) in the lyrics the application and musicianship is undoubtably exquisite. Eternal is a superb album. I truly hope they come to California for a tour soon.
Been a fan of this band since 2008. Listened to their entire discography and honestly every album is great! Just prefer all the albums with Timo on vocals. He's my favorite rock/metal vocalist and that'll never change! My favorite albums are Destiny, Elements Pt. 2, Elysium and Nemesis. Cannot wait for the new album. The two songs I heard are great!
Why Kotipelto don't invite Jani to be a official member of Stratovarius? Amazing song!
Jani loves doing his own things, plus Matias is the Guitarist for Stratovarius
Bernardo Ask him yourself :)
I really cannot wait for the new album, this sounds so well. I've been a fan of strato since ever, and they're getting better and better. Visions is one of my favorite albums, but this new strato is the way to go, its so good! This song make me think about my grandmother. Thank you Stratovarius!
My grandpa comes to my mind everytime I hear this song :(
Love it! Stratovarius has really stepped up since 2013, beginning with Nemesis! The new lineup rules!
I really enjoy how they've incorporated the melody's and tune of songs from albums like elements and added that heaviness not seen in most of their albums, really great stuff cant wait to hear this album!!
This song is so beautiful lyrically and musically
O som desses caras é tocante demais! Música incrível🔥
Love this song, it can apply to a long distance relationship ❤️ love all your songs ❤️
A song about family
Or Lucifer if you pay attention to the visuals.
Rather Christ if you can correctly interpret the visuals.
*Tips*
People make art about imaginary stuff all the time.
first impression i've got listening to it was that he was probably talking about a distant girlfriend he couldn't be with, then, paying closer attention to the lyrics, maybe a close relative that died. Still it remains a beautiful song. Could be anything, lol
i fucking love this song,it sing in my heart
Greetings from Brazil, my brothers!
When I was young
And life had only just begun
The days were long and bright
So warm and full of light
I never knew
That one day
You would fade away
Your colors
Fade to grey
It seems like
Yesterday
Still you're shining in the dark
You're still safe within my heart
Where my memories lie
And I will follow you
Wherever you go
I am what you made of me
Your blood is my blood
And your heart is my heart
We are what we leave behind
An eternal stream you flow through me
I fear no more
Though you're gone
I know we'll meet again
I know you're there
Still somewhere
You are waiting
You are the mystery
That only I can know
The gentle winds that blow
The glitter on the snow
I never speak
About you
Never say
Your name
It's not that
I don't care
It's just that
I'm not there
You're still gone and I'm still here
Yet I always feel you near
Wherever I go
I am what you made of me
Your blood is my blood
And your heart is my heart
We are what we leave behind
An eternal stream you flow through me
I fear no more
Though you're gone
I know we'll meet again
I know you're there
Still somewhere
You are waiting
Still you're shining in the dark
You're still safe within my heart
Wherever you are
I am what you made of me
Your blood is my blood
And your heart is my heart
We are what we leave behind
An eternal stream you flow through me
I am what you made of me
Your blood is my blood
And your heart is my heart
We are what we leave behind
An eternal stream you flow through me
I fear no more
Though you're gone
I know we'll meet again
I know you're there
Still somewhere
You are waiting!♫
Que musica foda demais
I enjoyed Nemesis, but I agree that this song sounds like Cains Offering.
I trust that it's one of the calmer songs from the album! Don't judge it until you hear the rest
Well... Not impressed. Stratovarius isn't Stratovarius anymore, every song on Nemesis sounded forced, like someone put a gun against their heads and told them "make a Stratosonataarctica album". Because this reminds more of overblown Sonata Arctica than of actual fist-pumping Stratovarius. The production is too sterile, choral vocals are overblown to the point of silliness... :\
who'd say, Jamie Oliver can also sing... good on u Jamie!
It's funny... There was some Strato's older stuff that I really fell for after first listen, but later on it stopped feeling so great and became "well, good one" kind of songs. But with new material it's often vice versa. The songs that were "uh, okay" turn into "actually cool" and then into "wow, great!" after a few listens.
Have you ever read a multimedia experience book written every chapter from 3 youtube videos related to 3 Facebook publications.
I'm the T3=(Tale, taller, time) or The time terminator.
This song is for a S0N who doesn't exist because im SICK... Im (not FATHER) father with (no SON) son... Weird right?
Not really also im the (not HUSBAND) husband, with (no HOUSE) house.
I has been casted away because my wife fear me...but I love my (not son) S0N
This song is for you Sam
I will write a book as FATHER t0ld me.
I know what I want, and will write this book in order to be able to be with you again my S0N
Society is made for mother, but not for father. We are made to be castout and trash out... And the sad thing... We may not be able to share BL00D... THE SAME WAY I DONT SHARE BL00D with your M0M...
But I will always be your FATHER as you always be my S0N.
SAM you are the only thing I really want back in my life... I will love 3000, I will l0ve you forever...

Hey mom I feel you and I know that you are waiting for me.Dedicated to her who passed to another dimension almost a year ago.RIP
RIP
Great chorus, great bridge, great composition overall... my only gripe is Jens' ...ambient tone if you catch my drift... Great keyboard solo, though! (even if only too short)
What a fantastic sound. This band really makes me wonder why people bother listening to dire stuff like Iron Maiden. This is how you do it!
I´m fan of the band since 1998, and I can say for sure that today Stratovarius is in their best phase, imho. I love Episode, Fourth dimension, etc. and lots of stuff tolki did with the band, but the best thing for stratovarius was him out.
Mi banda favorita, aunque tolkki lo dejó, siguen siendo grandes. 🎶🤟🎸
From the music standpoint, Mattias is a fucking genius. These guitar riffs and solos are so sick, the change of keys and complex time signatures is something that he has added to Stratovarius and that Tolkki didn't have that. Yes, Tolkki WAS (please listen to his Avalon albums... they are SO bad) a master in power metal, but what Mattias is bringing to the band is AMAZING. Tolkki based most of his music writing in 4/4 while Mattias I have no idea what the fuck he is doing at times. I LOVE the new Stratovarius. Sure it took some time for me to get used to is, but after the 3rd time of listening Nemesis it clicked and it feels SO right. So please stop hating and continue supporting :)
Me encanta tu voz Timo y tu ser. Tu Alma y espíritu guerrero. algún Día te conoceré estoy trabajando para que me dejen ir a tu concierto en Guadalajara. Que tengas buenos Días o noches depende donde estés. Yo soy una simple mujer bipolar y muy soñadora. Te gusto el Retrato que te hice. Bueno bye Buena vida Chico Timo Kotipelto.
The Evil Master used this song in his Animated Non-Disney Movie Villains Part II back in 2017.
RIP😥😥MY DEAREST FRIENDS...GONE TO SOON....GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN..WILL FOREVER BE IN MY HEART CHERISHING YOU GUYS 😘😘
Too bad this doesn't sound like Stratovarius at all... it feels like I am listening to a Cain's Offering bonus track.
I was hoping to listen to something like Elements and then they punch me in the face with this...
califanoowner I totally have to agree it sounds sooo much like CO BUT it's good nonetheless
califanoowner This is why there are so few good metal bands nowadays. They're musicians, they're artists, artists love to try new things, if they are not allowed to, they lose interest. If you wanna listen to Elements, listen to Elements, don't ask for everything by stratovarius or any other artist to sound the same because that's what's killing metal.

I am sooo happy it's a continuation of the CO sound. I LOVED stormcrow and the fact it's in that same vein makes me SUPER happy. I was hoping it would keep some of the CO sound and I got exactly what I wanted. Can this overtake Stormcrow for my album of the year? Only time will tell, but if this is any indication, I will be MORE than happy with the result. I'm actually not a huge fan of Nemesis (I prefer the Elysium sound more) so I'm hoping that they don't fall back into the Halcyon days sound.
califanoowner Yes!... It sounds very similar to Cain's Offering!
califanoowner My thoughts exactly, totally agree that it sounds more like a Cain's Offering bonus track. Such a shame really :( Not that it's bad but....we've heard songs like this 100x before.
Freestyler! :)
ChristianIce Sapevo che anche sua eccellenza godeva di ottime conoscenze e gusti musicali ma non mi aspettavo di trovarla qua
funny thing is I didn't expect to have a good album? why you may ask? Well because the band itself didn't expect to have a good album. I remember at the interview that they said "Yeah we're having a new album and it's going to have some good tunes". After a sentence like this, I think, nobody expected a really good album or good songs. Stratovarius, you amaze me again...
Man, i think stratovarius is coming back!! I'm here guys!!!
+Jorge Castillo They never left.
+Josh Sonon hell yeah
It is great to see a band searching for a new sound rather than sticking to a formula that just wasnt working anymore. Heavy metal fans, from all music fans, should pay attention to this more often. People are always complaining that metal today isnt what it used to be. Of course! this "what used to be" happened 20 years ago. Can you imagine people expecting an artist do the same things you did 20 yrs ago, even though he/she now gets an inspiration different from back the, and people also complaining whenever he/she tried to reinvent him/herself? Yeah, it sucks. For the sake of heavy metal and all good music, support change, embrace the new so that heavy metal lives on and grows stronger through new bands, styles an techniques.
I like this. its a new era for Stratovarius. their old material was great and this is as well. although it is very different. bands grow. I can hear what ppl say about the similarities between this and cvains offering.. well of course.. they are almost the same band and Timo helped write songs for this and that at the same time. I'm looking forward to the rest of the album. I hope its much like polaris was
When bands make similar songs say that musicians have no creativity .... When the bands change only know how to criticize... What the problem with this people???
Great song! Long live Stratovarius! \m/
Happens the same as the past album, the vocal melodies are very mmm simple or predictable, and those vocal harmonies creates a sound similar as Cain´s Offering. I respect a lot these guys individually and as a group, and Stratovarius is one of my favorite bands, dont get me wrong but if you remember Tolkki never liked to include that much Kotipelto´s stuff and the last two albums are the reason, they don´t have a place in Stratovarius (not because is bad music) they just don't fit in. I think they should change the band´s name and still play old stratovarius stuff, it has more sense like this.
The Song is amazing! will for sure pre order this album!
Loistava biisi, ei voi muuta sanoa. Isäni menehtyi syöpään tosin jo n. 25 vuotta sitten, mutta aina kun tämän kuulee, kyllä sitä herkistyy muistelemaan isäni poismenoa. Ja musiikillisesti tämä on parasta Stratovariusta koskaan.
I personally really enjoyed this song, though tbh I'm not exactly knowledgeable about any changes within the band. Anyways, all I know is they have an issue with their touring...they ain't coming to my city :/ :(
