    Welcome Back. The song is about a songwriters feelings when their work is harshly criticized. The Decades tour played a lot of the older Tarja era songs that hadn't been played , or played sparingly, after she and the band split.

    Welcome back gentlemen!!!
    Well, first, this song sound is a bit off (slowed down and toned down)!!!!
    As for the song:
    Tuomas, Nightwish's songwriter, wrote this one night in a fit of rage, and had to edit it later on to get rid of all the profanity. It's an angry song directed toward the greed of mankind, and their stupidity.

    STD Army Sheffield reporting in! Welcome back, and well done for not bowing to the YT conformity police regarding holidays. I have to say, this is my second-favourite NW concert DVD (after Wacken of course), but this is a mid-tier song from that concert, so still great but not one of my go-to recommendations (you've done my top three already).

    3 minutes before Alex insulted all of the women in Texas. A little late wouldn't you say? And then you try to kill off some support with the NIghtwish Army hate. You guys are amazing.
    I think George's house should be something associated with the River Thames.

    Ahhh....A Thamesmen resurrection. Risen from the ashes. Back in town, and all that. As a diehard Nightwish fan I can tell you Slaying is outside the top 60. Why was this track chosen? You guys have yet to check out Weak Fantasy or My Walden or Endless Forms Most Beautiful. All available on the Tampere show DVD. They are outstanding tracks! Drop me a line and I'll help you pick the next three Nightwish tracks. I guarantee successful fan response. And Alex, I'm guessing you moved to Colorado? Did you reveal why, or is that top secret info? Also, I did not notice you both now have clear eyeglass frames. So, don't worry. It's virtually undetectable.

    Back to Nightwish! Don't bother with the 2002 version.
    Tuomas says the South Americans are the most enthusiastic.
    Vocals are wild and after 2 hours on stage Floor can still do the rapid triplets at the end.
    Marco on touring South America with the insane crowds:
    "Floor handled it the best. When the fans were wreaking havoc at the hotel lobby, she just sternly said: " Hey, people, it doesn't work like this - please get in line, and everybody will get their photo and autograph." I'll be damned the disorderly fans actually obeyed her. That's a huge accomplishment in South America"
