Lyrics: Sleeping Sun
The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest
For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime
I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there's nothing left to say
I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
This is one of the Nightwish songs that Tarja will just forever own to herself. Her voice is just perfect in this. Can't wait to see them in Helsinki next month with my whole family!
perfectly put! The song is magic with her voice.
I also loved Floor's version! She definitely did justice to this song!
@@prasenjitbose123 Floor's version is definitely beautiful too, but I personally prefer the operatic chorus. :)
Tarja can't pronounce an english word if her life depended on it
@@VNAOVFA-Hammer If you check her newest cover of the song for example at Kulttuuritalo with orchestra (she sometimes sings it at her gigs) she pronounces alot better and her voice range has increased alot.
Best version of this song ever, shes gorgeous singer!
This song is a masterpiece, as the whole Oceanborn album from Nightwish. Sleeping Sun is a remembering the beauty of the total Solar eclipse in Europe 1999. 11th of august. Watching the total Solar eclipse, while listen this song... Epic GOOSEBUMPS!
This. Very much this.
But this wasn't the original operatic version. This is a later 2005 contemporary version rearrangement.
I think this is the most beautiful and awesome live of this song.

That is a beautiful song and she is great singer, it touches something in your soul and just grips you from start to finish. Thanks for sharing, enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Natasha Weikath check out their song “swanheart”
This was my wedding song in 2010.
The voice of an angel!
I wish the people who claim that tarja made nighwish great, also supported her more in her solo career🤦♂️
Well I do, I have bought all of her live Blu-rays, and most recently the dark Christmas theme "From Spirits and Ghosts."
I don't fancy too much though the style Tarja has decided to sing metal in her solo career, it reminds me "Slaying the Dreamer" of her Nightwish era which was always my least favorite Tarja's song. She uses this artsy contemporary style with suffering tone and high head voice. If you wanna hear her sing beautifully in metal, you hear that mostly in her old NW-songs or when she features with other musicians, like for example "Paradise" with Within Temptation. And then of course her classical tours and Christmas songs. Sure there are some metal songs in her solo career too where she doesn't cultivate the artistic style.
@Manveru31 Oh no, I disagree. To me Tarja's era was the best. And she is the most succesful solo career metal singer I know, and definately more than any other Nightwish member with their other bands or solo career. Tuomas and Troy have Auri, Tuomas has his solo album, Marko has Tarot, Emppu has Brother Firetribe and Floor has Northward.
Edit: oh yeah and Marko's solo album "Isäni ääni" was also not well received. Although I think marko is a wonderful singer. But the style he chose for the album, wasn't a success.
@Manveru31 Oh yeah, and what's the most popular song by Within Temptation? The one that features Tarja: "Paradise (What about Us?)" Over twice more views than their next popular song.
@Manveru31 Reading comprehension probs? I said most popular Within Temptation song. And the most popula NW-songs are Anette's Bye-Bye Beautiful and Amarath.
@Manveru31 You Floor knights are so Hell bent to belittle earlier singers' eras. Digital sales are counted into album sales, have been for many years already. It's different in the USA and Germany for example, but it's about 10 to 12 degital song sales that equal one album. That's very cool and much easier than during Tarja's era, when you had to actually buy the physical album. Probably physical album sales counted most of Anette's era, too.
This concert still makes me sad due to Tarja's last moment with Nightwish....
She made her bed, and had decided to leave anyway. They just asked to leave a bit earlier, rather than wait
@@Songfugel man i know
@Manveru31 But that was not at all the reason...
The voice of an angel!!!
Some time you should check out the End Of An Era version of Ever Dream. Yes, I know Floor kicks ass with her majestic ending to the song and I like it too. But Tarja and Marco singing together is just out of this world. I know you have plenty of other Nightwish songs to go through, but this is something that I would highly recommend! Also, MORE ENSIFERUM!!! Treacherous Gods, Little Dreamer, Iron, Old Man, Abandoned, Victory Song, Heathen Throne, Warrior Without A War, Two Of Spades. Your pick :D
Yep couldn't agree more, really hope they do it due to listening every song from End of an era concert. Or even listening whole concert. Would love to see that reaction.
yes, because everyone's heart needs to break just once watching Tuomas break down behind the keys for a few moments, right? Ugh.... :(
Tuomas was angry about having to write this song. Germany asked him to do it. Even though Nightwish had not played there. But they were very popular there. He was upset that people just expected a song writer to be able to write on demand. Also they had certain criteria for the song like length of the song. He said he would never do it again.
The only thing is if they did not have him write this song, we would never have had this beautiful song.......... :-)
Besides, NW were going to tour Germany later in 1999 nonetheless, so I guess it was more of a personal thing for Tuomas. And it's not like the added publicity and exposure hurt in any way. ;)
@@_vinterthorn True. But you know how Tuomas is......... :-)
Yet he did it again with Nemo. Don't know if it was the record company that asked him to do it or what, but the idea was to write a radio-friendly song to be used as single and he said he didn't know how to do it. I guess he does, cause Nemo is (or was) their most successful single.
@@ialeixo84 And a beastly song at that too. Say what you will about it being "radio-friendly" or "pop", but it's fricking gorgeous.
@@TTArt Yep, it is.
I always get goosebumps from this song
You should watch "Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan" is a touching song from that concert.
........... as you said it's beautiful , it's angelic , thankfully they filmed this performance of it \m/ :)
I was on their show in Bratislava a week ago, and I must say that they are so awesome. The old songs like Carpeter, Dead Boys Poem, Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean, The Kinglayer or Slaying the dreamer in this new coat were mindblowing. Only Nemo is for me still Tarjas song.
New energy, new drive, new feelings...still processing that. Tarja was like ice, Floor is like fire. A big one.
This song is pure magic, each time i hear it i got shivers! I have the first edition of this dvd, it's amazing in its entirety.
Thanks 🤘 why is there a doll of Jack Sparrow...google some pictures of Tuomas Holopainen you see he looks like Jack, thats why ☺ this song was a request to Tuomas to write a song for the solar eclips in Europe 1999. There was a few more request, the song can only be 4 min long, had to be a ballad, has to be catchy, easy to sing along with. He didn't like the idea at all, but he though he had to do it, so he wrote a song about the sun being tired and we go to sleep with the sun. So...without this request, we wouldn't have this song, and it is definitely Tarjas song, don't think any can compete with this performance, one of Nightwish highlight on their concerts.
As great as this concert was, I would say From Wishes To Eternity was even better. Both Tarja and Marco were pretty ill during the End of an Era gig, which is noticeable if you compare their performance to other concerts. They also seemed a lot happier/energetic in From Wishes To Eternity since the relations hadn't gone quite as sour yet, so I recommend checking at least some songs from that dvd.
HOLY SHIT it's been a while since I've watched a video from you guys and I'M SHOOK by how deep toned that 'Hey guys!' was LOL the kid is growing up!!! Cool reaction!
He has grown/changed so much in 1 year since we started these
My favourite from Tarja-era is From Wishes To Eternity concert. That would be awesome as remastered bluray!
Hi Guys! Beautiful song and great reaction. It's always a joy to watch your faces reacting to a Nightwish song. :) PLEASE react to "Ever Dream" from this "End of an Era" concert, it's really amazing. Please :)
Definitely one of my personal Nightwish favs.
You guys look sick btw, killer tee combo!
🤘🎩

Always happy to represent Meadows End
if you want more Nightwish songs, you can do the studio versions
Oh man, this clip is ancient! Tuomas' black finger nails... Tarja's very Finnish accent... Funny and epic at the same time! :D
Continuing my selective marathon through your back catalogue - this is chronologically the 200th Reaction video and I still have 10 months worth of videos to go through in order to arrive to September 2019... of which there are 6 days left, yikes! :) *This* song I have vivid memories of, having seen the Tarja-era lineup perform it live in the summer of 2000, when it was still relatively new, and on a Midsummer Night's Festival, no less, as _the Sun_ set... for a couple of hours at least! Glorious.
"I can't remember what I ate yesterday." - SAME :D
😁😁😁😁 living in the moment
I wish I had A&P
for some Nightwish tonight
I wish I have MetalSage on Sunday (as well)
Well played
I love how you react to the real thing. Tarja! This is without doubt the best Nightwish song ever!
The “end of a era” blu Ray is great.
You should be able to find it fairly easily. I got mine off Amazon
Beautiful song. And great reaction!!
Great review guys , if you want Goosebumps just listen to High Hopes .....yes , from Pink Loyd
Marco is singing this .......from the live concert End of an era ..
If you like Marco’s voice , its a must to hear it
An angel voice!!!
Ayyy I loved this song as well! Hope all is well with you guys 🤘🤘🖤
An ad kicked in exactly when you finished saying "perkele", hilarious timing 😂
Tarja was, is and always will be the best. Her voice is a pure magic.
OMG, I just watched this the second time, and must say that your "Perkele... I stepped on some shit." is priceless.
Thanks😁😁😁
Hola! Tarja rules!!!! And the drummer in the second part It is amazing, (ah, no sorry.....he is amazing in the second part of everdream)
I just heard them yesterday here in Budapest. Still one of my favourite bands.
One of my favourite songs!! gotta just close eyes and relax.. and all other stuff is forgotten for while!!
Sinking in your chair
- that pretty much captivates it.
So your soul can float and fly free.
Great song! Try Sahara from them, one of my favorites from them.
Also, try something from Norther. Mirror of Madness would be a good choice.
And, as usual, Arion - Burn Your Ship (Studio Version)
Can you react to a song from concert “From wishes to eternity”? No matter which song
Great reaction as usual. Can't wait to see you guys reacting to some of the Decades DVD when its released!
How about checking out more Norther? Death Unlimited is an awesome album.
I say Last Breath
If you watch the DVD in its entirety, could you tape a full reaction of you on a couch. Could be fun 😉
Not sure it would be, really? At that point might as well live stream it
Hi guys!! It would be cool if you do a reaction of a spanish metalcore band called TO THE BURIAL and the song BLOOD. Congratulations for your channel and thanks for sharing your passion with us! i'm waiting for more and more of your reactions because i really enjoy them. regards from Spain!
Thank you! Muchas gracias me hermano
Awesome guys :) I just love Nightwish, they are the best. Will you be reacting to Draconian soon again? Looking forward for your reaction on "Death, come near me", that song is just so haunting and beautiful :)
Cheers,
William
Wait. I saw Nightwish Live on Saturday and on Sunday A&P do the Nightwish Live reaction?
What a great show it was with Beast in Black as a support. \m/
That is one solid tour
Such a beautiful song.
Thank god you made Tarja version reaction... Thank you guys
Still waiting for Ghost River, Wacken 2013 ;).It's about the time...
Jean Michel Jarre & Neo Prog vibes. A combination i want to in heaven. If Heaven is actually a real thing.
Although beer is a typical drink in Germany, it is not allowed drinking this while work. Just after finishing your Job, you can go to the next beer garden (biergarten) and drinking with your Friends to death, but drinking at Work is forbidden. I`m 15, so i´m not official allowed to drink beer, but my parents agree with drinking beer on Festivals, so my favourite brand is "Barre". Good reaction (as Always), and greetings from Lower-Saxony, Germany! (btw sorry for the bad english :))
Please react to Skyforger - Nekas Nav Aizmirsts (Nothing is forgotten) they are from Latvia 🤘
Tarja forever!
Master Passion Greed!!
Cheak out the band Xandria, it also has a great singer. I recommend its song Sacrificium
Please react to Tarja "Supremacy"
I feel no Nightwish song is the same since Floor came along with her amazing voice. Exept this song.
Yeah, she sung keyed down versions of the band's old songs during tthe whole Decades tour, so they're definitely not the same. The originals are so much better.
2002 first time i saw Nightwish live, i tought Tarja was amazing. 16 years later her voice is boring, with bad english and opera to it all the time. Sorry.
Tarja's voice is amazing and it has always been amazing. Actually, it's better than ever now, because she has improved her chest voice so much. I guess you haven't listened to her soon to write this. Also, her music is not boring, it's just not generic/ commercial. And she is far better than floor. Sad but true. Sorry.
Tarja 5,Anette 5Floor 3
@@kristianp.405 What do you have?Biopolar disorder? You saw Tarja 2002 at her best and she looks like boring now. No one feeling,no one memory?Can I believe you? You look like Floor's fan to me and very young age also. Or you never was NW fan 😂.
Very beautiful!
Back in the day, when the publicity photos for Once came out, someone on the now-defunct English-language Nightwish.com discussion board started cracking some mild jokes about the band's aesthetic in them. I don't particularly remember any of the jokes except for the one about Tuomas Holopainen: "He looks like he's auditioning for Pirates of the Caribbean" or something to that effect. The reason I remember even that much is that Tuomas posted a reply to it which went something like, "Oh wow, you guys don't miss a thing, do you? Captain Jack Sparrow might be the coolest film character I've ever seen."
So, he kind of adapted it for his own personal image for that tour, and possibly afterward too. It hasn't really changed much since then, except he grows his hair longer sometimes and wears a few more t-shirts. Hence the Jack Sparrow doll. I'm sorry. I mean the Jack Sparrow action figure.

You guys have to see Persefone - "Living Waves" or "In Lak'Ech" ft. Tim Charles of Ne Obliviscaris!
If you are thinking about live-streaming the concert, i would be more than happy to sit through the hole thing! ;)

yah, i was just gonna suggest that one...her voice was so deep and low..just incredible..she is not of earthly origin
Might I add, you two have great taste for music. Brilliant song. Just subscribed to you as well. Keep up the good work. Also might I add, have you ever looked up Within Temptation, maybe a bit of Lordi, (Lordi is Finnish) and if you ever go back to Beast in Black, check out End of the World.
yeah, she can make angels weep. Which is generally considered a bad thing. ;)
Try the version with Floor live in Tampere 2015
Great!
I also liked how to the solo as done. It shows the understanding of the sng is so deep. You don't want teer away too far from the mood this provokes - supprot it with slight prsonal touches. There are songs that call for your wild personal leads, technical prowess etc. in the solo. But this is not one of those.
Shows the quality of the guitarist or whoever is the musician, to recognize the mood of the song, and what kind of fill or solo fits there. It doesn't show a good sense of style, good taste, to go show off your technicals kills in every solo. Better make it fit to the song, have different types of solos in your repertoire.
Back in the day, before Tarja was released, many Finnish artist selected this song as the most beautiful song ever made
Great review. Heineken is Dutch not German beer.:) It has been awhile since you guys reviewed an Epica song. Maybe you could take a look at the following song "Once upon a nightmare" . The song itself is based upon an old horrific Nordic fairytale transformed to a Poem by Wolfgang von Goethe (basically the German Shakespeare) called The Erlking (Der Erlkönig) . The musical buildup is like the soundtrack of a movie with of sense forboding of the tragedy about to happen. The story is about a father racing through the night to get help for his sick son. That, in his fever-state, is having visions of a gobling king trying to seduce him to enter the land of the dead. No growling in this song and Simone just sounds devine. The tragic conclusion makes this a piece of art. If you are not having goosebumps by the end of the song i would consult a doctor. :) Beneath you will find the original version and literal English translation of the poem mentioned. But here the link. ruclips.net/video/CPgZmfD5E8Q/видео.html
Erlkönig (Goethe 1749 - 1832 )
Wer reitet so spät durch Nacht und Wind?
Es ist der Vater mit seinem Kind;
Er hat den Knaben wohl in dem Arm,
Er faßt ihn sicher, er hält ihn warm.
"Mein Sohn, was birgst du so bang dein Gesicht?" -
"Siehst, Vater, du den Erlkönig nicht?
Den Erlenkönig mit Kron' und Schweif?" -
"Mein Sohn, es ist ein Nebelstreif."
"Du liebes Kind, komm, geh mit mir!
Gar schöne Spiele spiel' ich mit dir;
Manch' bunte Blumen sind an dem Strand,
Meine Mutter hat manch gülden Gewand." -
"Mein Vater, mein Vater, und hörest du nicht,
Was Erlenkönig mir leise verspricht?" -
"Sei ruhig, bleibe ruhig, mein Kind;
In dürren Blättern säuselt der Wind." -
"Willst, feiner Knabe, du mit mir gehn?
Meine Töchter sollen dich warten schön;
Meine Töchter führen den nächtlichen Reihn,
Und wiegen und tanzen und singen dich ein." -
"Mein Vater, mein Vater, und siehst du nicht dort
Erlkönigs Töchter am düstern Ort?" -
"Mein Sohn, mein Sohn, ich seh' es genau:
Es scheinen die alten Weiden so grau. -"
"Ich liebe dich, mich reizt deine schöne Gestalt;
Und bist du nicht willig, so brauch' ich Gewalt." -
"Mein Vater, mein Vater, jetzt faßt er mich an!
Erlkönig hat mir ein Leids getan!" -
Dem Vater grauset's; er reitet geschwind,
Er hält in Armen das ächzende Kind,
Erreicht den Hof mit Mühe und Not;
In seinen Armen das Kind war tot.
LITERAL TRANSLATION
Who rides, so late, through night and wind?
It is the father with his child.
He has the boy well in his arm
He holds him safely, he keeps him warm.
"My son, why do you hide your face in fear?"
"Father, do you not see the Elf-king?
The Elf-king with crown and cape?"
"My son, it's a streak of fog."
"You dear child, come, go with me!
(Very) beautiful games I play with you;
Many colorful flowers are on the beach,
My mother has many a golden robe."
"My father, my father, and do you not hear
What the Elf-king quietly promises me?"
"Be calm, stay calm, my child;
Through dry leaves the wind is sighing."
"Do you, fine boy, want to go with me?
My daughters shall wait on you finely;
My daughters lead the nightly dance,
And rock and dance and sing to bring you in."
"My father, my father, and don't you see there
The Elf-king's daughters in the gloomy place?"
"My son, my son, I see it clearly:
There shimmer the old willows so grey."
"I love you, your beautiful form entices me;
And if you're not willing, then I will use force."
"My father, my father, he's touching me now!
The Elf-king has done me harm!"
It horrifies the father; he swiftly rides on,
He holds the moaning child in his arms,
Reaches the farm with great difficulty;
In his arms, the child was dead.
Keep up the good work.
Okay. At this point I'm fine with any Solution 45. Song. Misery Mantra is my personal favorite, but any Song from them, if you would check, will do. XB
I am glad you guys loved this song! Can you guys please make a reaction to Floor's version? This is a great song to see how these 2 singers added their own flavors to this song.

We want The Kingslayer with Tarja from this concert! UP
I wonder what you do smoke there in Canada that you decided to edit out. :D
Please check Marco's While Your Lips Are Still Red, there's a live version too!
I have noticed you doing only finnish bands on sundays, so I thought you could some more Stratovarius. You should really do the song Destiny, my favourite from them.
Helloween - Ride The Sky 🤘
Tarja is bet... nah I don’t wanna start this 😂
You just did.
Do not forgrt to react to the band Epica, I recommend its song Kindom of Heaven (live)
Herrera Gonzalez they have reacted to them!!!
I love Floor Jansen and I'd actually say that I prefer her to Tarja and Anette. BUT, this song will always and forever be the one song that Tarja slays like no one ever will.
I would appreciate to someday hear your opinion of a certain Irish solo artist, named _Miracle of Sound_
His song _Sirona_ has in my opinion somewhat similar feeling to Wintersun and Amorphis, so you might like it.
[edit: I suck at text formatting]
