Tuomas's first vision of Nightwish was as a band playing "atomospheric mood music". He soon realized that the woman he wanted to sing in this band, his long time friend Tarja, had a voice that was a lot more powerful than he had realized and that the music would be better if it were stronger and more vibrant. I have wondered if Auri, which came into being much later, wasn't somewhat of a visualization of what that original idea was. Anyway, thank you for reacting to this song. This one isn't even my favorite from Auri, I just felt that after your illness, this would be something that might be more pleasant for you to listen to, since you're kind of still recovering.
All 3 of the band members have a folk background. Troy especially has spent most of his professional life playing in folk bands. I hope you did listen to more of them because both Auri albums are stunningly beautiful.

It was great! Thank you for the request. New music is always great to hear! :)
