It's so sorrowful when he sings it. His voice is just naturally so sad and solemn. It makes me want to cry and hold onto him at the same time. Especially when he sings in his native tongue.
@foreverloveless27 LYRICS: [A Light in the Night] On top of the taxi flashes the only light of the night The crammed rowing seat of the mother ship waits I go Gloomy thought breaking through Rude words stammering lies Thick wallet It's easy to ask for love The beggar Before the very eyes Appearances grow numb
it's valo yössä, not yossa... you probably know that but it's not so hard to copy some letters for example from a finnish website... ;) just chance the title, please? you've got even the letters now :D thank you.

Really pisses me off when bands like HIM make covers of classic Finnish songs. Not so much the song or performer, but when the covers get uploaded to YouTube and fangirls flood the comments section saying how Ville Valo sings so well and sexily, completely overshadowing the original version. Couldn't he just keep to writing his own songs?
@Soupcannon...you are pissed of that some bands makes covers of classic songs. I do not know the original versions of these songs, cos I am not Finish, but I do not consider covers made by Valo bad at all. I know, some fangirls sucks but there are also some people who do not worship someone´s appereance and just listen to the music and in that case they can penetrate a bit to Finish music history or traditions. If only in my country was somebody to do that this way. I would never diss him or her
A heartagram is a symbol that ville has stated the heart being the ying and the pentagram being the modern day yang in a yingyang.Basically a heartagram means life and death, love and hate.good and evil.
The heartagram was a symbol designed by Valo himself on his 21st birthday and is now shared between his friend Bam, it's also the HIM logo. (I think, my facts not be correct). The five pointed star is a pentagram. The heartagram is basically the shape of a heart blended with that of the pentagram.
On top of the taxi flashes the only light of the night The crammed rowing seat of the mother ship waits I go Gloomy thought breaking through Rude words stammering lies Thick wallet It's easy to ask for love The beggar Before the very eyes Appearances grow numb The light of the scythe cutting houses A hand searching for the driver's coat I do
i just watched some videos.. and..they are reaaaally kl hahaha some songs are really sticky aswel lol...oh well...that's what I like from this singer (Ville Valo) he can sing whatever he likes and he doesn't give a damn about it..and it also doesn't do anything to his carrer :P
No prob :) His versions of Finnish "classics" sound damn nice to me... Sure they don't sell as well, or be as interesting to people abroad, but his voice really works nicely on those.
May it remain, I do not care From the womb to the grave The raft travels steady Thousands from pub to pub On top of the taxi flashes the only light of the night The crammed rowing seat of the mother ship waits I go Gloomy thought breaking through Rude words stammering lies Thick wallet It's easy? to ask for love The beggar Before the very eyes Appearances grow numb The light of the scythe cutting houses
thank you Elina for the lyrics .... ive never heard that song before but i can honestly say that finnish language is very charming and especially in ville's presentation ! ! i like this song and immidiately started to sing it ... haha
I'm sure Ville has a reason for singing mostly in English... Maybe he can express himself better? Either way, HIM wouldn't be so successful if they were strictly Finnish :( And I wouldn't be able to understand the beautiful lyrics, so I'm glad he sings in English.
Well I don't speak Finnish, so I can't critique him on that, but his English is very nice to my ears, and it's my first language. I have no trouble understanding him, and he expresses himself more eloquently than a lot of people I know whose first language is English.
i thank for ville was born in finland. if he wasnt born there, i can never get a change to hear this beautiful song. i dont understand the lyrics, it sounds sad and i dont know why.
On top of the taxi flashes the only lite of the night The crammed rowing seat of the mothership waits I go Gloomy thought breaking through Rude words stammering lies Thick wallet It's easy to ask for love the begger before the very eyes Appearences grow numb The light of the scythe cutting houses A head searching for the drivers coat I do not know how to condem nor thank life May it remain I dont care from the womb to the grave The raft travels steady thousands from pub to pub
