Wintersun - The Way of the Fire - Live audio edit

  • There are several edits of this song, performed live, on RUclips.
    The main difference this edit has, is that it includes the live drum performance track, by Kai Hahto, which also has a demo guitar track in the background. I have tried to bring this forward in the audio, particularly during the 1st guitar solo (it's a pretty one). I have tried to lessen the volume of the click track on this, but my audio editing skills are limited, so this will have to do.
    Tracks used in this edit:
    - Mexico 2013
    - Summer Breeze 2014
    - 70,000 Tons of Metal 2015
    - Kai Hahto w/ Pearl Reference Pure Drums
    I will probably keep this edit up until Time II is released. Make sure to support Wintersun by purchasing their albums, preferably via Bandcamp.com, or by subscribing to their Patreon, or participating in any further crowdfunding they choose to do.

    this is by far the best mix of this I've heard, genuinely cant believe i'll be listening to a studio version in less than a year.

    I’ve contributed multiple thousands of views to the Mexico 2013 recording. Such a good one. The solos just pop so well

      Mexico 2013 is probably the best version we have on RUclips. It did feel like a crime dialing down the sound on it in certain sections in this edit, to achieve a more "full" sound.

    One of the best songs I've ever heard.. listened to the live versions at least 1000 times, leard to play it on guitar including all solos and melodies, just an amazing piece of music, can't wait to hear the studio version finally

    • @smackanimals
      @smackanimals  6 месяцев назад +3

      It's a beautiful song, there are going to be so many little details and melodies in the studio version which we could never hear in the live versions. I'm looking forward to the vocal layering 🙂

    Lyrics:
    Fire, the oldest one
    The force in the beginning of time
    Show me your face and your fierce eyes
    Reveal the secrets those flames hide
    Pass on the wisdom and strength
    And I shall honour this legacy for my dying day
    Until the fire will burn all the memories away
    Fire, the greatest one
    Light the path I have chosen
    Lead me away from these wintry meadows
    Show me the way of the treacherous shadows
    But nothing lasts forever
    Even this fire I have inside
    Fire burns wild in the mountains
    It burns deep inside my heart
    It burns away the harmony of space and time
    But from the ashes, new worlds will rise
    Fire! The oldest one
    Burns wild inside my frozen heart
    Fire! The greatest one
    But I can never understand the way of the fire
    Fire! The oldest one
    Gives light to my chosen path, so dark
    Oh, fire!
    We can never tame the way of the fire
    Flames in the darkness reaching the stars
    Million sparks rise, dancing into the sky
    I'm mesmerized by the blaze, I'm tempted to adjust my fate
    So long, I've been longing for the feeling, the feeling of tranquillity
    I will leave this wretched world behind
    - Before it falls apart -
    I see the skies so calm, and I can't wait anymore
    - I can't wait anymore -
    Coldness of winter night
    I will find my way somehow
    - I will find my way -
    Beyond the stars, a new world awaits me now
    - A new world awaits -
    Through the fields of snow, we walk
    The endless path of stars
    Will we reach the horizon?
    Come, follow me, eternal star
    I will guide you away from the dark
    Through the coldness of winter night
    We'll find our way in the blaze of the fire's light
    The sun of the fading dream
    I can almost reach it, but it's still so far away
    The fire will die in our hearts
    When it's time to leave this world behind
    We shall leave this world behind!
    Fire! The oldest one
    Burns wild inside my frozen heart
    Fire! The greatest one
    But I can never understand the way of the fire
    - We shall leave this world behind -
    Fire, the oldest one…
    - The fire will die in our hearts -
    Fire, the greatest one…
    And we can never understand the way of the fire!
    - We shall leave this world behind -
    - The fire will die in our hearts -
    The way of the fire!

      @@PsyphaX09 I feel it ought to be, due to the fact that it was originally going to be just the one album. Jari seems to be particularly pleased about the track "Silver Leaves", while Kai has stated that "Storm" is one of the most beautiful songs he has heard. I don't believe we have heard the full-length version of that song yet. Time will tell!

      Dude, I'm sure you may have heard already, but Time II will likely release around the second half of this year. The album is finally completed, the band will be doing their own preorder package in the meantime, starting in about a month's time.

    Hey, this sounds great! I just made a mix of Storm that combined a bunch of stuff in the same way your video has. I think it turned out pretty good (check my channel), I was considering doing one for Way of the Fire too but there just isn't enough material out there for it. I think we'll just have to wait until Time II comes out. Check the Storm video out anyway if you get 10 mins spare 😎
