"The Light"
Do you remember?
We used to swim in the moonlight after dark
Do you remember?
The way the windows broke the light
I still remember
We used to never be scared when we were young
Tell me, do you remember at all
Like a flash in the dark
and my lost winter land is unfrozen
Just a glow from a spark
can ignite a candle bright
Peaceful shine awoken inside
I can fall a thousand times and dance on burning embers
Just a warm embrace, or a touch of grace
A first heartbeat of new life
You can fall a thousand times, as long as you remember
All you need in the end is a long-lost friend
to remind you through the night
That joy is the light
Do you remember?
Us running wild with the wind beneath our wings
Cold snow in December
When we defied the steepest hill
I still remember
Without a care in the world, forever high
I will always remember it all
There was a time when I was lost in darkness
the greatest pain that I have ever felt
In agony and misery I wandered without light
with nothing there to fill the hole inside
There was a night, I saw my eyes deceiving me
Fooling myself
I was a victim of circumstance
But tonight I feel the lies all leaving me
I am breaking free
It’s a choice that you can’t leave to chance
I’m forging my life in the fires awoken inside

Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the upcoming release of Swedish progressive metal masters Seventh Wonder's new studio album, "The Testament" on June 10, 2022. Pre-order/save "The Testament" HERE: orcd.co/7thwonder
"The Testament" follows 2018's "Tiara", which, at the time, was the band's first new music in eight years. While the wait between albums was, mercifully, shorter this time around, the band certainly did not need any extra time to craft a stunning album showcasing their prolific instrumental skills and intricate songwriting. Indeed, "The Testament" is a high watermark in the band's already revered discography.
Seventh Wonder was formed in 2000 by bassist Andreas Blomqvist, guitarist Johan Liefvendahl, and drummer Johnny Sandin after their previous band fell apart. The music they were writing and playing turned towards progressive metal. When keyboardist Andreas “Kyrt” Söderin joined in late 2000, their new sonic explorations were only cemented further. Two demos were recorded (2001 & 2003) and the latter caught the attention of the label Lion Music, who signed the band in 2004. That collaboration spawned the first Seventh Wonder album, ‘Become’, which was released in June 2005. “Become” was well received by progressive metal fans and media alike; however, the band and singer Andi Kravljaca decided to part ways shortly after the recording process had ended. Enter the brilliant Tommy Karevik (Kamelot, ex-Vindictiv), who joined the band in 2005, actually prior to the official release of “Become”.
The next album, ‘Waiting In The Wings’ was recorded in 2006 and mixed and mastered by legendary Tommy Hansen. This album was a huge leap forward in terms of song complexity and maturity and received outstanding reviews and fan accolades, establishing Seventh Wonder as a force to be reckoned with in the progressive metal world. 2007 was spent playing live in support of the album, including sharing stage with legendary bands such as Queensrÿche, Testament, Redemption, and many others in England, Holland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.
Simultaneously in 2007, a follow-up to ‘Waiting In The Wings’ was written. The band hit the studio in May of 2008 to record their third full-length, “Mercy Falls”, which was hailed as a true masterpiece at the time of its release. "Mercy Falls" was supported with several live shows in Europe, including Italy, Norway, Finland, and Holland.
In 2010, the band released “The Great Escape”, which again was met with critical and fan acclaim and cemented the band's standing as one of the premiere progressive metal bands in existence. In support, the band again toured in Europe and also appeared live in the USA at ProgPower Festival.
After "The Great Escape" album release, drummer Johnny Sandin left the band and would later be replaced by the incredibly talented Stefan Norgren (ex-Lion´s Share). Seventh Wonder fans collectively lost their minds in 2018 when it was announced that after an agonizing eight year wait, the band's latest studio album "Tiara" would be released. "Tiara" once again continued the band's winning streak of crafting progressive metal masterpieces and was greeted with high levels of enthusiasm.
Now, in 2022, the band one again returns with another magnum opus of a progressive metal album, "The Testament".

Can you guys upload videos in their original aspect ratio? It looks like it would fit an ultrawide monitor perfectly, but it was hard-encoded into the standard HD 16:9 aspect ratio with black bars at the top and bottom, so people with ultrawide monitors get those as well as large wasted black spaces on the sides when viewing in full screen.
@@Skorpion9x We upload the videos exactly as they are delivered to us. We don't make any adjustments to them.
@@frontiersmusicsrl I see. Thank you for your reply.
Long time no see! Welcome back
I was just listening to some of the older albums just last week Still great!
will the vinyl edition be for sale again?
This song is proof that Seventh Wonder is more than just a metal band with a good singer. Every single member of this band is on another level.
You're totally right man
I mean anyone who thinks this haven't heard Mercy Falls or Great Escape...
Always been like that.
@RandomGameCritic
Every Song they released to past 8 Years is proof of that.
Only Tommy Karevik can get away with doing boy band style mimicry with his hands while singing in a Metal band. This is the kind of singer that makes even the most hardcore metalhead dudes throw their panties on stage
HAHAHA. He isn't bad looking on top of his incredible talent. He writes and/or co-writes melodies and lyrics for both Seventh Wonder and Kamelot. He plays base, keys and drums also. He said in an interview he sees music in lines and color. I wish he would expand on that. It is really an interesting concept. He says he exercises his body and his voice. It shows!!!!!
@@48mlove it's a sort of Synesthesia what he got, maybe not the serious one but lighty :D
Haha, good 1.
I wish this band got the recognition it absolutely deserves
spread the word to family and friends
6+ minutes ago, I had no idea who Seventh Wonder is. And now...I need to know...more. Totally dig this song and this band.
Your life just got better after discovering them, trust me.
I'm assuming at this point you've already, 3 days later, had the joy of experiencing Mercy Falls. If not, stop whatever you're doing, and listen to it front to back while reading the lyrics.
Forget about previous album for now and check Waiting in the Wings and The Great Escape (title track when you have 30 minutes free)...
You owe it to yourself to check them out. Listen to the album Tiara. And The Great Escape!!! You won’t be disappointed
Fantastic band ! You can go and check the videos for « inner enemy » and « alley cat ». The whole concept album « mercy fall » is a must. (Live version is cool too). And another great band (from sweden too) is Dynazty. You can listen to « the grey »
Tommy's vocals are always incredible, can't get enough!
🇸🇪
best singer in today's metal scene hands down. hes good in kamelot, but the way he sings in seventh wonder is just beyond words. incredibly talented guy
I still play and sing along to this song and Invicible at least twice a day. I am obsessed with them. My cat Buddy is a fan, too. He comes into the office when I am playing Seventh Wonder and the new Kamelot song. When I sing, he flattens his ears and looks at me funny like he is thinking, "what the hell". I certainly don't have Tommy's chops!!!!
A shame he just left the band. Raised the bar for the next singer
In this band, he doesn't need to imitate anyone, he can sing the way he wants
素晴らしい曲に乾杯します🥂❣️
トミーさんの声はキャメロットの時とは違う獣に変身する感じがします。セブンスワンダーの時のトミーさんの方が大好きです💘
フロントマンのトミーさんだけでは無くキーボード⌨️ギター🎸ベースとドラミングも最高傑作です♪ ティアラも大好きでしたがこの曲も陶酔する程‼︎ 魅せてくれますね。いつの日か島国の日本に🇯🇵
来日公演が叶います様に神様にお祈り致します🙏感謝🥲です…
I'm just now finding out Tommy has another band lol better late than never 🤣
Masterpiece Tommy is one of the best singers in this genre for sure!!!
This bassman is a beast
Johan's guitar - a perfect balance of melody, groove, skills and emotion
Andrea's bass - Just sexy every time I listened to his parts
Stefan's drum - The energy, technical level, and genius composition is just breathtaking and powerful
Kyrt's keyboard - Everytime I hear his keyboard I know I'm in for some catchy tunes
Tommy's vocal - What can I say? He is the perfect frontman. Good looking, good figure, good voice, good technique. He's a gem.
And these are why SW can produce masterpiece after masterpiece.
What a track!!! Tommy just raised the bar with this one, in my opinion.
Andreas Blomqvist, man!! You´re insane!
100% agree! His playing is subtle yet deadly.
これはとても素敵な曲です。
トミーの歌声は素晴らしい！
This is an instant hit. Raw energy and purely enjoyable.
Andreas is tearing it up on keyboard!
In a blind test you know it's a SW song when the keyboard comes up 😁😁
Warrior が公開された時衝撃的でしたが、期待のこの曲はもうもっと更に上をいく神曲です❤❤❤❤❤。もういつもいつも聴いていたいです😊
The thing i've always loved about seventh wonder (Tommy's elite voice aside) was how they were always equal parts proggy/melodic/accessible/fun.
Don't get me wrong I like a lot of impenetrable and inaccessible music but bands that can reach everyone without compromising their sound are always really special
this is exactly why it is a crime that more people don't know about them, not many people that have heard seventh wonder can then say they didn't enjoy it.
This is melodic prog metal we want.I'll buy the album！
Big love from 🇯🇵
absolutely killer and WHAT A VOICE Tommy has
Jesus freaking Christ this is incredible.
I agree, classic Seventh Wonder sound, similar to that in my all-time favorite song “The Great Escape.”
Fantastic vocals. Fantastic keyboard. Fantastic bass. Fantastic guitar. Fantastic drums. Only thing I didn’t really care for was that the song ended too soon! Great job yet again, guys!!
Just wow. Everything about this is great. Positive vibe, catchy yet complex chorus, some of the best singing of Tommy's career, a badass instrumental break, and a brief, dark bridge to build some dramatic tension. Quite a ride!
Truly a gifted man that has all the right sounds, styles, and techniques vocally. So cool!
SW nunca decepciona! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Gostei mais dessas músicas desse novo álbum que do último, tiaras song mesmo é meio chatinha. Essa e a outra tem mais energia, tem mais peso também, inclusive técnicas diversas, e me parece que o Tommy cada vez evolui mais nós vocais.
@@kgn512 concordo, essa tá mais animada
Sou fã desde a primeira vez que ouvi Mercy Falls. Inacreditável o som melódico e complexo que eles fazem.
Can't wait for the album! Love these guys. Tommy might just be the best male voice in metal right now and his bandmates are every bit as talented.
he's amazing, yes, but he's no Devin Townsend
@@Erin_Metal I love Tommy and Dev to death but don't compare them. They're both amazing and uniquely talented.
@@Erin_Metal Tough to compare tbh. Devin has a whole other side to his vocals through death metal that are impressive in and of itself. Tommy's got those pop runs for days though. 🤷♂️ Guess it depends on the style really!
LIsten to Seventh Wonder and Kamelot ballads and then to Devon's. No comparison. Tommy's vocal inflections, etc., are incredible. Do listen to Seventh Wonder's Against the Grain acoustic version and Beyond Today and Kamelot's Under Grey Skies and then Devon's ballads. Tommy wins hands down. I am not saying Devin isn't a great singer and he does sing some songs better than Tommy. The problem with Devin is you can hardly hear his voice over the instrumentation and back up singers. I can't make out a lot of the words. I prefer Seventh Wonder songs over Kamelot's because in Seventh Wonder Tommy's voice soars and he has runs. Their lyrics and melodies are great, too. I love their song Invincible, too. Seventh Wonder has more positive lyrics and Kamelot's are darker. Seventh Wonder is where Tommy's voice SHINES!!!! I didn't know who Devin was, but will now follow his work thanks to you. We all have a right to our own preferences as to what we deem great music. Best wishes for a great year ahead!!
uplifting, catchy, replay value, mature, great instrumental break in middle - man this is totally Seventh Wonder at top of its game
This voice of an angel makes grown up men weep! What a melody and musicians. These guys are musically on another planet. Thank you for all the songs you have given me🙏🏻❤️
This song is addicting! I love it so much!
I'm big Seventn Wonder lover and like Kamelot also very much. To me there`s a natural connection between both bands. It`s impossible not to love both. I was happy to see Kamelot twice live. Hamburg and Bremen. Hope one day it`ll be the same with Seventh Wonder.
Amazing as ever! Tommy is an awesome singer, and Andreas is a legend on the bass
Andreas Blomqvist did it again, he is sooooooooooo amazing! perfection on that bass line.
Reminds me of their masterpiece: Mercy Falls
I’ve seen this band live three times in the US. Hope to again. Incredible. Also some of the nicest people I’ve ever met.
Childhood❤️
inspiring lyrics, killer guitars, massive keyboards, beastly drums, Bass for days... and incredible vocals... This band is incredible and to only have two albums out... Both feel like they could be considered master works.... I need more...... This is what every prog band desires to become......
or at least should.
jsyk, seventh wonder has quite a few more albums in their discography!! i highly recommend Welcome to Mercy Falls & The Great Escape, though they may take some digging.
Has the director won an award for this video yet??
Crazy, hubby can identify any drum kit by the sound of it, he said this is a Tama kit, and he was right
Wow, One of best songs i have heard in a while. Glad this popped on my RUclips recommendation feed.
Tommy is simply the Best... What a Song!
*One of the best Seventh Wonder songs to date!* 🔥
2:50 that "I can" echoed multiple times was awesome, just like the whole song \m/
Oh, I just saw the comment and I say: Thank you for being so great! I consider you my friends too!
Progressive power metal awesome this is how modern power metal can stun you , this stands up there with battle beast and beast in black and nocturnal rites and secret sphere and kamalot, and dgm and labyrinth!
Wow Everyone in this Band is Top Level. Especially the Bass Player.
Getting some Mercy Falls vibes from this song. This is the style where Seventh Wonder really shines!
Heavy, yet beautifully melodic.
Love the song! Goes to the top 10 of my favorite Seventh Wonder songs!
Same!!!
Incredible.
Yes! Seventh Wonder is back in full glory! Such a great song! I couldn't help myself from having a big grin from ear to ear during my first viewing/listening!
This song blew my mind, I am now hooked ❤❤
A masterpiece - as expected!!
Come to Brazil 🇧🇷
Amazing song! Andreas killed it as always!
I am fan of Rush, Dream Theater... and since Mercy Falls a fan of Seventh Wonder. A great band. I can't get enough of this band. Great prog metal. Great new album!!!
Oh... Ohh... Oh!!! This brought back the feeling when I first heard SW. This is the classic SW. Insta-like!
They should open for DT in the states. Would help them expand.
No puede ser mas temazo de lo que es esto.. todas las bandas suecas suenan como la puta madre, estoy obligado a ir para allá alguna vez en mi vida. Saludos desde Argentina!
Before this guy gets old he should sing on anything and everything he can.
He has one of the best voices I’ve ever heard.
WOW WHAT A GREAT FRESH SOUND LOVE IT
Another banger, as expected. Can’t wait for the album. Fantastic stuff.
I wish i could like this video endlessl times! Can't wait for the album!!!
This song is so good that I hope Japan use this song for new anime op 😄
Positive, upbeat, catchy and beautifully complicated, delivered with a voice raised above most. Kudos and can't wait for the album!
I'm a straight married man.... but God dam it Tommy....
🤣👍👍😁
What a great song !!!!
What a great album!!!!!!!!!!
These dudes are really good.
This song’s incredible. Incredible enough to have turned into a repeating auditory stim for days. Not a complaint
Same! It's been a while since I've come across a song I really have no complaints about. They made the right choices about everything, this was a labor of love from them.
Holy Men of God what a song
What a great voice
🔥😍🎵🎶
Yeah, what a great mediocre voice.
@@bertlamil2632 I imagine that you have a better voice broh
😴🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well, I ain't no singer. Therefore my voice does not matter. However, it is disturbing you dont know me, yet you come at me with so much hostility. Have you met a real man in life?
@@bertlamil2632 so much hostility? Kkk I just made a question broh kkkkk are u okay?
🤔
Holy wowzers I love this song! The opening keyboard tune was the catchiest thing ever, and it's so awesome to hear a bass guitar solo in a song as well. So happy I heard this song, put a huge smile on my face!
I'm in love with that bass. And keys, I mean everything is good in this song. It just works.
Johan, you da man!!!
Jesus christ I just can't get enough of this song.
Bra Bätttre Seventh Wonder.
I started listening to Seventh Wonder when I heard Tommy was going to be Kamelot's new singer. Became a fan ever since. Tommy was a great choice for Kamelot but he's perfect for SW. Just love how SW sounds. Won't be the same without him.
Been enjoying this song since it came out..
EZO, They should have left there name alone..
EZO aka ( FLATBACKER ) ..
Peace and love everyone!!!
WOW, WHAT A SONG
Yeah, long boring song.
je debatirais toute quand jecoute l'album testament toute une masterpiece !!!!!!!
Tommy....Really blended...GREAT ...GREAT.. Voice
I am speechless. So tight single. Great work and mix.
I wait for your Concert in Germany. 👍👍👍👍
5 more days and another metal masterpiece will bless the world...
Damn guys. You hit every checkbox that makes a song memorable to me. I have had this song stuck in my head for a week now, with no signs of getting out any time soon. Needless to say that I will now be going after your entire catalog. Kick ass, just simply kick ass.
I have had this song and the song Invicible in my mind for months. I watch the videos on RUclips and sing along daily at least once. I also am now obsessed with the song Opus of the Night by Kamelot, too. My cat, Buddy, comes into the office while I am singing. He flattens his ears and gives me a weird look like, "what the hell"! I don't have Tommy's chops. hahaha
If Seventh Wonder released Waiting In The Wings in 2022 this is what it would sound like. Love the feeling of you guys going back to your earlier sounds but with the polish and experience you’ve acquired in the years since. The hype train can’t stop now! Here’s to hoping this is your best album release so far.
Have loved these guys since Waiting In The Wings. Makes me happy to see more people discovering SW.
I see you with the Ergo Proxy poster, bro. Good taste
@@HastyBacon My man. Appreciate it.
This instrumental section - just WOW!
I freaking love you! The synth melody and the refrain, OH my fucking good! Magic!!!!!
I saw the light & am a strong believed in 7th wonder with Tommy's stellar vocals.
Amen!
@@MrsSerena84 👍
GREAT melodies great Song fantastic VOCALIST SUPREM band cogratulation 🎤❤
wonderful as always. Tommy is the best in the world.
Fantastic track , tight band and how incredible is Tommy? He brings all the soulful elements of his early influences (W Houston M Carey) into the Rock sound in an effortless way. Love it!
Can't wait for this album!
I listen ASIA, WINGER, DREAM T., etc.. I love Progressive POP. Nice surprise.
WOW! Really nice! Great played Johan!
Vaya super temazo!!!!!!!!!!! :D I hope to see you soon in Spain!!!!!!
Great powerful Voacls. Love his range.
Amazing!! From Japan.
I hope this amazing song and album dont get removed from spotify in Brazil, just like many other Seventh Wonder songs that i used to listen
