    I can't believe it has been this long since this song came out, I remember seeing the video clip on tv for the first time like it was yesterday, time flies. anwayway, I hope you'll enjoy my cover of this Nightwish classic, which was my introduction to Annette's very different vocal style. Taken from Dark Passion Play.

    -- Lyrics --
    Baptized with a perfect name
    The doubting one by heart
    Alone without himself
    War between him and the day
    Need someone to blame
    In the end, little he can do alone
    You believe but what you see?
    You receive but what you give?
    Caress the one, the never-fading
    Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
    Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
    In a land of the daybreak
    Apart from the wandering pack
    In this brief flight of time we reach
    For the ones, whoever dare
    You believe but what you see?
    You receive but what you give?
    Caress the one, the never-fading
    Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
    Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
    In a land of the daybreak [x2]
    Reaching, searching for something untouched
    Hearing voices of the never-fading calling
    Calling [x2]
    Caress the one, the never-fading
    Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
    Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
    In a land of the daybreak [x2]
    Daybreak!
    -- About Nightwish --
    Nightwish is a symphonic metal band from Kitee, Finland. The band was formed in 1996 by lead songwriter and keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen, guitarist Emppu Vuorinen, and former lead singer Tarja Turunen. The band soon picked up drummer Jukka Nevalainen, and then bassist Sami Vänskä after the release of their debut album, Angels Fall First (1997). In 2001, Vänskä was replaced by Marco Hietala, who also took over the male vocalist role previously filled by Holopainen or guest singers.[1]
    Although Nightwish have been prominent in their home country since Angels Fall First, they did not achieve worldwide fame until the release of the albums Oceanborn (1998), Wishmaster (2000) and Century Child (2002). Their 2004 album, Once, has sold more than one million copies[2] and was the band's breakthrough in the United States. Their biggest US hit single, "Wish I Had an Angel" (2004), received MTV airplay and was included on three US film soundtracks to promote their North American tour.[3][4] The band produced three more singles and two music videos for Once, as well as a re-recording of "Sleeping Sun" for the "Best of Nightwish" compilation album, Highest Hopes (2005), before Turunen's dismissal in October 2005.[3] Her last performance with Nightwish was during a concert recorded for the live album/DVD End of an Era. After the concert, the other members informed Turunen with an open letter that she was no longer a member of Nightwish.
    In May 2007, Nightwish announced Anette Olzon as Turunen's replacement.[5] That September, the band released their sixth album, Dark Passion Play, which has sold almost 2 million copies. The album's lead single, "Amaranth", became one of Nightwish's most successful in Europe.[6] The supporting tour, one of the band's largest, started on October 6, 2007 and ended on September 19, 2009.[7][8] The band released an EP/live album, Made in Hong Kong (And in Various Other Places), in March 2009 as a CD/DVD, and their seventh studio album, Imaginaerum, was released globally on various days in late 2011/early 2012.[2][9]
    On October 1, 2012, Nightwish announced that they had parted ways with Olzon and would be finishing the tour with ReVamp and former After Forever vocalist Floor Jansen.[10][11] In October 2013, Nightwish made Jansen and longtime session uillean pipes player Troy Donockley permanent members of the band, and they were featured in the acclaimed album Endless Forms Most Beautiful, released on March 27, 2015.
    Nightwish is the third-best-selling band and musical entity in Finland with certified sales of nearly 900,000 certified copies.[12][13][14][15][16] The group is also the most successful Finnish band worldwide, selling more than 9 million records[17] and receiving more than 60 gold and platinum awards, having released five Number 1 albums and thirteen Number 1 singles.[18]

    Absolutely fucking incredible. The fidelity, precision, and genuine professionalism of your covers is something that I seriously look up to. I know you probably get this a lot, but your channel/music is criminally underrated and you deserve an M instead of a K after your sub count.
