There is no other word than 'magic' to explain what inspire an artist to create and one great song after the other, and to find the inspiration to fix on a record more than a special moment in each and every of songs.
It happens very rarely nowadays, especially in metal and especially for bands with so many albums in their discography to be compared to.
'Nemesis' is the album that brought the mysterious magic in Stratovarius' life.
The album blew everyone away and set the beginning of another start in the long history of the Finnish band.
With the incredible sense for melodies and their powerful and technically elaborated style, the band once more visited the "higher floors" of the charts worldwide (Finland: #3, and basically top 40 in every country in the world).
The song 'Unbreakable' immediately became one of the bands' most streamed songs ever, with thousands of fans enjoying it every single day since its release.
Throughout 2013, the band dedicated their energy to the 'Nordic Nexus Of Nemesis Tour' and delivered their dedicated fans with unforgettable live performances everywhere they went.
It's with a spirit of gratitude towards the fans that the band agreed to release a special edition of 'Nemesis' -- now including a full bonus Documentary DVD.
The 'double program' (studio album/Documentary DVD) will be released on May 2nd, 2014 on earMUSIC.
The 80 minute documentary 'Nemesis Days' follows Stratovarius around the world and gives an in-depth view of Finland's finest metal band, revealing the story of 'Nemesis' and sharing their view about the evolution of the band. The fans who have remained loyal to the band for so many years are also an important part of this documentary DVD.
For Stratovarius completists, the DVD features the first official release of the most recent music videos ('Halcyon Days', 'Unbreakable' and the brand new 'If The Story Is Over').
Experience the band like never before - you've never been closer to them. Welcome to a new chapter of Stratovarius!

Song: IF THE STORY IS OVER
Album: NEMESIS
Year: 2013
Band: STRATOVARIUS
Label: earMUSIC
I don't care at all to make comparisons with old Stratovarius, I'm here just to state that: 1) this is one of the best songs I've ever listened to (and man I've listened to a whole lotta songs!); 2) it moves me to tears in the end; 3) lyrics are just of the finest poetry. Thanks to Stratovarius for this one!
There's new Strat. Enjoy it. The band of my life. 16 albums deep (disputed), these guys rule the farrrrrrk out of it all.
I completely agree with you buddy. All of your words are very true.
OK, here is a fresh idea: this is a good song from the new and different Stratovarius. I am a die-hard fan of the old Strato. And this is good. Some changes are envitable. I still wish the old one would exist. Yet, I am not mad about this song. Just enjoy.
IF THE STORY IS OVER LYRICS
Once upon a time I was the scribe of all my dreams
I ve seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me
I ve walked the shores of Avalon, I ve seen the seasons change
I ve laughed and cried, I ve lived and died, but only on the page
Now all I have, all I am
All I ever was is here, on the page
It s all the same, it never mattered anyway
It s all a lie so let it burn
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
I hope it s not too late to learn to live and learn to love
I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark
For I never drew the sword from stone, there s no Helen in my Troy
I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void
Come night, test my will, test my soul
Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart
Make me strong, make me whole again and
Guide through the dark til the morning comes
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
All empty words and all rhymes will fade
As the light of last candle flickers away
If the story is over, this chapter my last
Let it be my best one, let it be my own
Sometimes we all live a lie for so many years but we must all try to have the courage to live it even if it might be the last time. Imagine if this song played in Multiverse of Madness. Maybe Wanda might have had an even better life even if her imprisonment or execution was unavoidable. But is she is still alive this song has to play on the potential Scarlet Witch film at least on one trailer
Thanks for pasting lyrics!
❤ Un gran tema
Stratovarius makes most beautiful songs no doubt
Holy shit...
I mean, this doesn't sound anything like the Stratovarius that I knew from back when, but DAMN. This song makes me tear up.
This isn't the first time they put out a song in this style, there's also Before the winter and Forever.
Ashley Letterman Не ругайся! Отличная песня!
it's written by Jani Limatainen (not a Sratovarius member)
@@baharry1wa
After all this time i still can't understand why this song is not one of those that has tens of millions of views...
+nothing, nothing and nothing you´re so right,I heard the song today the first time and it gaves me goosebumps
Stratovarius tends to do that.
Zak K maybe so
Because there is secret power fighting everyone good in this Erth 🅾
Bros Wein Indeed. It is called "necessary evil."
Simply marvelous and absolutely beautiful, I miss the solo though, but great music video
ggonza43, you are our Strato hero :D
YoMartínProductions Exactly! What would we do without all those uploads by him?! :3 Anyways, the song is sooo beautiful! :o
Michael Studený
Though it's a shame that they've cut 1,5 mins from it.
Simplemnte maravilloso,una banda unica que siempre supo brindar mensajes altamente positivos, emociona escucharlos sueño algun dia con poder verlos si es con Tolkki mejor,sin desmerecer a los actuales miembros que son fantasticos tambien!!!maravilloso video y maravillosa letra!Mil gracias Stratovarius!!!
un genio el Argentino q hizo el video!
One of the greatest bands of all time
"I hope it’s not too late to learn to live and learn to love"
Stratovarius, I know that I am not the only person who wants to thank you for the music that you have given us throughout this time. All your songs make me fell many emotions and most of the time your songs have an advice for me in each situation. The music, the lyrics, the voice, for me all is great!
I remenbrer very well the time when you played this song in Mexico... I do not have words to descibe what I felt at that moment. You are great! Thank you vary much to you and "Just Carry On!"
Maš to pěkně posklademne
After all the years that i've listened to this band, they continue to amaze me with the wonderful music that they put forth. It's powerful.
The song is haunting and melancholic, it's another fantastic milestone in the history of tale-telling in the music form. I just can't get enough of metal albums consisting of songs that have real stories or thoughts in them - the special language of music and its lyrics is perfectly preserved in pieces like this one.
This song is magical in so many ways
It makes me remember songs like Before the Winter, Coming Home, Mother Gaia from their previous works
This one is a ballad, But Jani Liimaitanen really was a excellent addition to this song
This is absolutely one of the most beautiful songs ever . Brought tears to my eyes THANK YOU for this gift
Beautiful song
kotipelto el mejor cantante de metal !!!!!!!! dios de voces
1:12 - I stand alone in the darkness
the winter of my life came so fast
memories go back to childhood...
great memories from 'Forever' for this song, really amazing :)
WOW! Very good eyes you have!! I never noticed the lyrics for Forever there. ❤️
I met Stratovarius like a year ago, and since then I fall in love with his music, it's just so awesome, the sound is different from other power metal bands that I have heard and the lyrics are very inspiring. I hope they continue to create more valuable songs like this one.
第一次听到这首歌的时候还是2014年,从那时我就感觉到这首歌对于我的不同。对于我的意义,无法言表。这是我的一生之歌!❤️
有品味
A wonderful masterpiece.
This whole album is so great!
This song... everytime i hear it, it gets through my bones and my soul. It makes my heart cry, its wonderful.
Excuse me, i have to go and hit something to feel manly again ;__;
hit someone :p, lol.
P/s: just kidding
¡Qué canción! Carajo, es impresionante la manera tan metafórica de hacer la canción, se puede interpretar de muchas formas, la música de acuerdo con el contexto de letra, impresionante, dentro del Top 10 de las mejores canciones de Stratovarius, sin duda.
If this song doesn't completely move you then you have no soul.
+Olivor Holman I guess I have none then. I found it boring compared to their other ballads.
too true
One of the few songs that brought me to tears. It's so relatable. Masterfully written.
Love this song
Such a beautiful song. And a perfect music video for it!
This is a truly masterpiece, a song that touchs our soul
Amazing lyrics, as always. Thanks for inspiring me in every way Stratovarius. I love you guys. Long life to you all.
always i cry for this song
Stratovarius best melodic metal ever! Just bought "Under Flaming Winter Skies" they are an amazing live band!I love this song!!!Stratovarius the best!
Nelson Oyarzun yeah they are sonata Arctica is too long live power metal 🤘
Simply beautiful, I could listen to their music forever. I love Stratovarius so much, and think that they deserve way more media attention than what they actually have... They have the best and most supporting fans I've seen. PLEASE make more albums for us in the future!! :D

Они мне помогали не умереть,стратовариус!❤
This lyric is very sweet and deepest. I really love it.
2021: still here and still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard 🖤
La concha... terminé con mi pareja, y mientras embalo mis cosas para irme de casa, pongo este video. Ahora estoy llorando frente al PC. Siendo objetivo, debe ser una de las mejores baladas de toda la historia.
¿Y que paso? ¿No regresaron?
Pra mim a melhor faixa do Stratovarius pós saída do Tolkki! Essa música é feita para aqueles que nasceram com alma de escritor; não faz sentido viver se não for para pôr no papel aquilo que está em sua mente. O personagem da história se dedicou à escrita desde garoto e levou consigo essa paixão até seu último dia de vida. Ele tentou se apaixonar, no entanto a moça vendo que não teria tanto espaço assim na vida dele quanto o seu caderno e não podia ter o seu amor real sem ser através das páginas, o deixou. Ele se frustra. Na raiva despedaça tudo aquilo que ele já tinha trabalhado no papel e fica abatido, mas ao ver seu caderno de infância com rabiscos infantis caiu em si que ele não nascera para viver uma paixão normal como qualquer outra pessoa, pois o combustível que o movia e significava tudo para si era ter um lápis em sua mão e um papel ao alcance. Que música maravilhosa! É de se emocionar assistindo a vida do personagem se passando, ele com sua paixão ainda viva a cada dia que se passa, apesar de sentir que algumas coisas lhe são proibidas. No final ele retorna ao seu estado inicial e puro da infância. Ao colocar sua mão direita entre seus olhos e o sol, é levado àquela era quando ele era pequeno e passava seus dias com seu caderno embaixo do braço buscando algum lugar tranquilo e inspiração para escrever. "Se a história chegou ao fim, esse meu último capítulo, deixe que seja o meu melhor, o meu próprio" ❤️
Quality above all the greatest band of all I've listened through the years.
2019 and still listening to that song
Essa música faz eu me lembrar da minha adolescência. Melhor faixa do álbum na minha opinião. Quando foi lançado, um amigo meu comprou e me emprestou. Eu tinha 16 anos. Bons tempos.
Listening to it for the 1st time today, what a beautiful poem, beautiful song . 2024 👂🎧
A wonderful balad song!
Superbly well interpreted and composed lyrics!
A calm and serene melody!
I love!
Nemesis one of their three best albums ever. Beautiful song!
I cried listening to this. It’s so powerful
Beautiful. I am closing my eyes in peace..... Beautiful........
It's kinda disappointing they didn't include the solo. For me, the guitar solo is the very important part that start the climax of this song.
Mardoni Mardoni are u italian Mardoni ?
Tem que ter o dedo do Liimatainen... obrigado Stratovarius por mais essa incrível composição, que letra. Significa muito pra mim hoje, "que seja o meu melhor, que seja o meu próprio." Liimatainen always with great contributions. Thank you Stratovarius for this amazing piece of music. The lyrics means a lot to me, specially today...
Que linda música!!!
my favorite band 🎶 stratovarious 💕 loving infinity
Its not over, it's never over, been on the mixes dear, tired tonite
Come night, make me strong... What a beautiful way to say you will face introspection head on...
Because if the story is over, let it be my best one, let it be my own
I'm glad that I heard this song
I'd never heard about Stratovarius, and I don't know why. They're amazing!
Same
black diamond is far the best song for me :)
Welcome, you will have the best of times.
The king's of power metal if you have any doubts
My favorite Strato ballad with a good video. Now I feel the magic again :)
no me canso de oirla una y otra vez
One of the best of all time.
4 years and still 600k views? Im confused with most people's taste of music nowadays
Krásná,užasná pisen,jako všechny od Stratovarius, jen tak dál kluci :)
so beautiful...
BEST BALLAD IN MUSIC HISTORY
In the end...look close at his eyes, there in a tear in his eyes. Very powerful and very emotional.
Legendary beautyful song band !!!
Absolutely amazing!!! is incredible the band, the song, the video, everything!!! :) we love you guys :) we want you guys to come back to Mexico, we love you guys!!! And keep the good work!! :)
I hope it’s not too late to learn to live and learn to love
I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark
For I never drew the sword from stone, there’s no Helen in my Troy
I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void
Come night, test my will, test my soul
Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart
Make me strong, make me whole again and
Guide through the dark ‘til the morning comes
Uma das melhores do Strato. Que obra-prima, meus amigos! ❤️
Listened 9 times in one minute😂🖤🤘
Monia vuosia sitten kun live- keikalla kuulin kappaleen, puhkesin kyyneliin, on niin mahtavan tunteikas kappale
Not to underestimate the rest of the songs on this album, it's my favourite of all Stratovarius has ever released, but co-writing between Kotipelto and Liimatainen gives sublime results again and again.. and again. :) I know I'd never get tired of this song!
such an amazing song
beautiful
Honestly...Stratovarius have many good ballads (Mother Gaia, Forever, Coming Home, Winter Skies, Move the Mountain,...) but If the Story is Over is the FUCKING best ballad they ever published. Wow. Just...WOW!
Stunning song, brings back some memories and makes my eyes wet
a perfect video for a perfect song
Stratovarius known how to make songs that touch the heart of their fans
Not just fans. I hadn't known them before but this song makes me remember the older times and the value of life:) and it's moving
The legend Stratovarius still alive.
Love this song
Beautiful song, very beautiful video! But why cut the solo wich I believe is the most powerful part of it??!
What a song....
Great composition
Kotipleto is a genius!!!!!
Beautifull song!!!!
how can it be sooo beautiful... I have no words....
Beautiful words makes me cryyyyy good song
Wow 3 music video im impressed . Too they never done it when jorg Michael was in the band he is my favourite drummer of all time.
Gracias por volver con fuerza y armonía, Muchas gracias,
Fantastic video!!!
This song is really beautiful. Very beautiful.Kotipelto is a great singer. Only his voice can express this sad but powerful feeling. Despair and hope coexist.
Thank u for this video, this is just beautiful, this is just amazing, this is just perfect, this is just you, STRATOVARIUS!!!
escucho a kotipelto y soy feliz! gracias kotipelto!
Truely an amazingly beautiful song, I would love to see this song in a movie. Missed the solo but still incredible.
amazing song!!!!!!!! =)
😢 gracias Stratovarius por existir ❤️❤️
Lo único malo de este vídeo es que no sacan el solo de guitarra que a mi parecer no debían haber suprimido, pero de ahí la canción es fantástica! aguante STRATO!
thanx so much for text, Naki. It's a wonderful song!
Magnificent as always!
ps.I will always love you my little Prince. This song will remain a memory
Amazing
Simplemente hermoso el video!!! son geniales!!!!!!!
Beautifully done. Inspirational!
If The Story Is Over A Beautiful Great Rock Ballad By Stratovarius.
thanks Naki, thanks! God bless you.
Esta canción merecía un vídeo como este :D
Que bueno :)
Es una gran satisfacción, le pusimos todo el corazón
Mariano Biasin Corrado muy buen vídeo pero la canción pierde la magia sin el solo de guitarra
wiplash01 fue una decisión de la discográfica y de los músicos, porque el track duraba demasiado :(
