[alerochadel]

I still miss Jari on ensiferum !

[skeggjoeld]

@alerochadel Same here!

[666666metalrock]

after 4:00 I begin to masturbate

[rivfader89]

@ugotpwnzored, I wrote allready that after Jari, Oliver and Jukka left the band almost at the same time, Ensiferum is totally different, the new stuf is all about folk and folk. What made the first 2 albums Ensiferum and Iron so great, is now in Wintersun. my opinion.

[Rinkenshin]

If you disliked this video, you're a cunt.

[camlanVI]

who is the bass ?

[memorgh]

thank you for those videos, are only

[bratius]

lol...i love the "rising sword tic" from right arm of jari, he still have it on wintersun

[Revontuletxx99]

Finland being a small country has the best metal bands

[lkkjhg45]

mesa boogie triaxis

[MeatloafCupcake]

I love how its not perfect from the studio, so much more emotion live.

[amanitebg]

now THAT's a band! 4 man and 1 great song make an insane crowd! That is Ensiferum!!! Love it!~

[Caduenas]

@amanitebg And one pretty hot woman, don't forget that.

[FireMoviesNL]

Jari is a genius. And I also heard that Wintersun's Time is almost done. Can't fucking wait!

[DeathMetalGeorge]

@FireMoviesNL

Jari's really playing a joke on us all, he hasn't started recording it yet.

[FireMoviesNL]

@DeathMetalGeorge Sure... Have you read the new update on their site?

[xChaud]

@DeathMetalGeorge it is almost done, they will play 3 shows now on metalcamp and metalfest, and im sure they will play one song from time in that shows.

[xxchecoxx]

I watched all these videos and Jari is amazing!! he made the back vocals too, he made everything Jari fucking rules!!!!

[starchild606]

Jari!

[SeekingEuphoria]

so beautiful!

[Iteachu2beninja]

Jari rarely goes live =(

[Whathuhwhowhere]

man fuck I wish I couldve seen this, only 2 problems are Im Canadian not located in Finland, and I wouldve only been 11 when this happened haha

[gowilko]

Thanks for all the Jari videos Truly Strucker ur a legend, it sucks they dont play this song live anymore im sure Markus could sing it.

[Moebiu24211]

@gowilko

They did on Rockharz 2010 ;)

[Marevix]

I never thought I would see a live performance of this one, probably my favorite track from the s/t album and one of my favorites with Jari. It would be interesting to have a copy of the soundboard audio, I didn't expect them to use the choir/outro section as an ending theme.

The emergence of these clips suggests that someone probably has the whole show somewhere, a gem as it would be the only source of live material from this lineup I am aware of.

[1337Roxxs]

This is to awesome...

I creamed my pants at 4:43.

Time for "Time"!

[rivfader89]

omfg! :) do you have Battle Song from this gig?? ? I would die for this :) Ensiferum was much better with Jari, but not only because of him, also Jukka, Oliver where better musicians to me that Sami and Janne (present) , only Marcus stayed

[TrulyStucker]

They didn't play Battle Song.

[nodeterin]

@rivfader89 I rather not comment cause if, then I'll get really mean. :D

[ugotpwnzored]

@rivfader89 so sick of Jari fans saying they wish Jari hadn't left. Jari is my favorite musician. Period. But Sami, Janne, and Petri are all awesome as well. I love where Ensiferum is right now and we have 2 great bands now instead of 1. What is there to complain about?

[Wolfenstahl]

this is such an epic song, i believe that ensiferum died when jari left the band

never get songs like into battle or abandoned again... sadly

[A7Xpwnsnubs]

@Wolfenstahl While this is an awesome, the new stuff is great too. Plus, the lyrics in this are kind of terribly-funny. Not hating on the band though, I love em.

[XionComrade]

@Wolfenstahl Petris style is more Folk-metalish than Jaris, Jari always had trouble with the concept of folk metal, its one of the hardest types of metal to grasp. Ironically enough with Wintersun he is still writting advanced folk music and doesn't even realize it, he is writing Oriental folk metal XD Time will be strongly based off of that, and all of their other songs make it apparent if you have ever listened to oriental folk music, its their :P

[PlacidDragon]

@XionComrade

Petri's "style" isnt the problem, his very limited vocals is. He is purely limited to growling (maybe screeching is a better word, as he has anything but a deep voice), and cant sing cleanly. Jari does both exceedingly well.

[XxXUnLoAdEdXxX]

@PlacidDragon Exactly why he should have stayed with norther, because kristian ranta did the clean vocals!

[nodeterin]

@PlacidDragon I wouldn't worry for Enska's clean vocals, cause they finally realized after Jari that they can't let a unique blessing to the history of singing like Markus' voice go to waste. I love the way Sami and Mahi cover the clean vocals now much better and when I saw their show in Nosturi in March, where Jukka was also there with the guys backing up the vocals, it was simply majestic. Ensiferum is no one man project, it doesn't need people who'd do everything.

[PlacidDragon]

@nodeterin

Who is Enska, last time i checked his name is Petri Lindroos :) Or is it a nickname? While i like Markus's voice, if you think its heavenly, i suggest you wash your ears, hehe. I have never called Ensiferum a one man project, i said that Jari could do any vocal style very well. You can try to spin it any way you want, Ensiferum is worse off for losing him, simple as that. That does not mean that i think they are bad, i love Ensiferum :)

[RiktigeKentsson]

@PlacidDragon Enska is a "nick" for Ensiferum I believe

[PlacidDragon]

@RiktigeKentsson

ahh, thank you :) (never heard that one before)

[nodeterin]

@Wolfenstahl Sorry to let you know that Ensiferum started with Markus Toivonen and dies only when HE abandons it. Also both of the songs you mentioned came to be thanks to him.

[Diogolindir]

this only makes me wish Hear "TIME"!!!

when Jari?...when?!

[luigigc91]

@Diogolindir its just a matter of time lol

[Met666]

While Markus wrote this song, I have to agree that Jari made this his song! The vocals and guitar solo are spiritually enlightening!

[Manumetallo1]

jari was perfect in ensiferum, but now in the wintersun he is also perfect

[gonzotheblithe]

I fucking love this song (one of my favorites). Sad I'll never get to see it live.

[MehdiGlz]

Petri is also pretty good, Victory songs is amazing

[Seppovesimies]

shit, awesome

[pabloplayer88]

wow jari messed up! awesome!

[nateox79]

A song we will never hear live again because Petri can't sing it, this is Jari's song.

[nodeterin]

As much as I love this song and agree that it's a total Jari-Song (would never wanna hear Markus sing such depressive material) I do not regret Petri taking his place. All the amazing new stuff would have been impossible with Jari.

[huggybear8374]

and no wintersun! lol

[XionComrade]

Yeah no wintersun would be very very sad lol! Who is with me in believing time will be Jari's best work to date? Japanese infulences!

[Met666]

Markus Toivonen wrote this song. Why cant Petri sing this? Jari's vocals and solo are excellent though!

[QueenOfRohan666]

What does he say in the beginning? Someone translate it please. =)

[wafflewoffle]

"Next, we have some sad stuff.... Abandoned"

[MuikuliWander]

@QueenOfRohan666 He just says "Next song is some sad stuff... Abandoned"

Awesome vid.

[vekadeathlikesilence]

luck for guys who were there while jari played that damn great music!!!

[slazinger]

@vekadeathlikesilence But jari is still playing isn't he?

[norik0]

this is so ridiculously fkn amazing

[nodeterin]

When was the concert?

[sirile99]

@nodeterin 25.3.2003 Teemu Raimoranta in Memoriam, Nosturi, Helsinki

Only show of 2003 and last show of Jari

[nodeterin]

@sirile99 Thanks for the info.

[pheires]

thank you very much for this clip! i've waited for so long to see jari singing this song and here it is finally :)

[nodeterin]

Although I generally like Petri's voice with Enska much more, this one is a definite Jari song, one to touch you deep even with the bad quality! ;-)

[Kurcinak]

thank you!

[eragon2121]

Why are live ensiferum with jari clips so rare?

[TrulyStucker]

no one filmed the show

[Pulvertoastman250]

@TrulyStucker Everyone looked to Jari.

[PaganMetal95]

TrulyStucker - no one filmed the show.

Iam happy that you filmed it with pretty good quality =D !

[TrulyStucker]

@PaganMetal95 I'm NOT the filmer of this show!

[nodeterin]

cuz they didn't have that much money back then, just compare the video qualities!

[eragon2121]

Yeah but people would still video tape it

[DavisCrescendo]

Well, Youtube wasn't around during 95-04 times. And people just didn't whip out their cameras back before youtube like they do today. So that's why...I guess.

[jtous15]

yes!!!! moar!!!

[campblor420]
