[Di0nis1s]

3.10 - 3.30 = AAAAAAAAAAAA HKBQWIHDWQQWKGJFASJGFDASJGDASD­SADAS HOLY SHIT

[TineBealtine]

I can totally see how this influenced early Children of Bodom.

[MrJSBachES]

sounds like Bach... lml

[GNR4Alife]

Oh god, THIS IS THE MUSIC THAT EVERYONE SHOULD LISTEN!!!!!

[tukkek]

Can somebody PLEASE tell me why the hell this song doesn't finish/ends abruptly? I'm getting crazy over it. Makes you think it's a transition to the next song on the album, but Paradise starts off fresh new!!! THANK YOU FOR YOU HELP!

[SGRev1]

@tukkek Actually, Holy Light does flow into Paradise. I have the whole Visions album on my iTunes, and I have listened to the two songs side by side.

[aksteb412011]

[jbreig81]

[psycicpowers]

Stratovarius: perhaps one of the few power metal bands with passion left

[vachiercoliss]

probably 13 girls lol

[schneeflockenfaenger]

@vachiercoliss don't think that girls always listen to pop or such kind of musik. i'm a girl by myself, 16 years old and know what good musik is. but it does'nt matter who you are, and what you're listen to. you can decide on your on. please stop these preconception.. that's really childish

[vachiercoliss]

@schneeflockenfaenger that was just a joke, cuz much of girls dont listen to metal, dont be so mad about some1 making idiotic comments on youtube ... sorry tho :S

[nathantim]

I got into these guys in like 2002 and got a bunch of their songs off kazaa including this one but I bought the destiny cd....this song blew me away and I showed it to a couple friends who were pretty much blown away too lol, I hadnt heard anything like that at that point.

[TheSkywonker]

I don't have words.....

[boredz23]

13 people don't know what fucking real music is.

[46875713]

3:10 - 3:42 sounds like a megaman's game

[Masterkillers144]

3:10 - 3:30 takes me to another dimension... i close my eyes and i feel i'm flying

[karapastelas]

[Gamer3241M]

[plindsa1]

@Gemes698 if they dont like it they can suck it

[DoragonShinzui]

[Andromede1664]

[pedent1]

@pedent1 oh ya, they have alot, i guess they probably have the odd instrumental.

[pedent1]

@pxdfover can u tell me a few good ones cuz i dont know this band good kinda like them

[pxdfover]

@pedent1 Black Diamond, Speed of Light, Hunting High and Low, Kiss of Judas, just look at the suggestions xP They have so much songs.

[kilroy294]

[Rawrx310]

@kilroy294

[LazarusErlking]

@kilroy294 From Fantasia on Elements pt. 1 - "How would it be? A world without hate

Without heaven, without hell

No wars, no arms, no religion, no God

Just your own truth"

Definitely not a Christian band. Have no idea why you'd think so.

[gguilford72]

@kilroy294

[ChasingPurpleTV]

[STRATOFAN2010]

[Masterkillers144]

This song Takes Me to another world.. thats amazing...

juast perfect!

[dazayseba]

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooddddddddddddd

[sallasar5]

The intro is like Yngwie Malmsteen Playing with fire

[sallasar5]

I need a shotgun with 12 shells

[bobmarlable]

What's wrong with the end of the track ? Suddendly stop.Boring end.

[YvesKlein13]

@bobmarlable

After a while I got used to it, and I found it to be quite fine artistic detail. Its like death, everything just snaps away. Or in more elaborate interpretation; flow of Holy Light transcends from dimension to another and in the midst of the dark purgatory abyss there seems to be some light in the end of the tunnel. As you proceed in the immeasurable void and still reach nearer, then suddendly...ZIP. The plane of existence is transfomed beyond the reach of worldly conscioussness.

[Niamorg1007]

@YvesKlein13 That's got to be one of the finest interpretations ever... I love this ending too, it gives the whole song a special atmosphere in my opinion.

[OrgodemirDQ7]

@bobmarlable All files have that. Its just one note off. It's the recording setup they used. It is just a final breakdown. You're not missing anything. Personally, aside from the stop, I love the ending.

[k0sashi]

@bobmarlable that's only because it flows smoothly into the next track, Paradise.

[diegogbr1]

@bobmarlable I think its not always about speed. it would be boring to hear the same speedy rythm the whole album. Now, that makes sense. Great Stratovarius

[FlamingPope]

@diegogbr1

be boring to hear the same speedy rythm the whole album << stop listening to DF, they give metal a bad rap

[diegogbr1]

@FlamingPope I dont like DF. I have every Stratovarius album. Is the first metal band I heard.

[NothingonTF]

@FlamingPope I love Dragonforce and Stratovarius, deal with it.

[fireguye4]

europe kicks the usas ass in music.. sad but true

[Angel94angel94]

@fireguye4 Why sad? i'm european :)

[fireguye4]

@Angel94angel94 because we have so many amazing bands here in the u.s. but just about ALL of the european bands are simply amazing. musicianship is flawless

[Gamer5Guy3Dude]

@fireguye4 lol its all in a matter of taste friend. USA has had amazing bands rise from it. Europe has just had more Epic metal bands. :D

[karapastelas]

@fireguye4 this is true but you must say that metallica is the best of all 

[mepicaeste]

@karapastelas lol

[YvesKlein13]

Nowadays Im not so much a Stratovarius-listener as I was in my childhood (it was my favorite band for years), but still listening that ending part of this song gives me chills. This is probably my favorite song of the band.

[markeboju]

GLORY OF THE STRATOVARIUS!! LAPPAJÄRVI BY FINLAND!!!!!!

[Mahthildis]

Che musicaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

[vincentizghra]

0:22-0:48 is my favorite powermetal riff ever.

[MrMrFreddy]

This amazing song would be an awesome JRPG Boss Theme!

[XxQuiTTqaTTxX]

Is this power metal or speed metal?

[johnzantey]

@XxQuiTTqaTTxX It's Stratovarius man!!!!! these guys were getting heads banging before labels like power metal/speed metal came into existence (1984)

[XxQuiTTqaTTxX]

@johnzantey Haha i know i know i just wanted to know if power metal is the same as speed metal (:

[DuxBellorum87]

@XxQuiTTqaTTxX this is power metal, but it's not simply power metal, it's epic, and sometimes sounds like baroque music.

[tuvijaselacome]

@XxQuiTTqaTTxX Both

[joel20596]

so upbeat

[caccarosa10]

bellissima!!!!!!!!xD

[matyasd88]

amaizing instrumental good is good

[jeanpaulkassdale]

amazing stratovarius tune anyway

[jeanpaulkassdale]

i hate that "sonata arctica - paid in full" proposal for every stratovarius song...........

[Rawfies]

2:29 until it calms down : OMG! O_O

[Andytheminstrel]

Now this is what neoclassical is all about.

[mawreycos]

hhgh

[MrDiegosbu]

bueno la verdad es que este tema es lo mejor en instrumentación de stratovarius....excelente composicion me encanta el efecto del teclado de las voces es genial aaaaaaaaaa qu buena rola.....

[marina92marbella]

jens rules! stratovarius rules!

[melodiousmetal]

Amazing and bone chilling! Best band ever!

[zptotman]

[warszawiak194]

[kilipeti]

4:22 - 4:24 ORGASMIC!

What a piece of music! They really can play the guitar and keyboard, I just love their music! Perfect artists!

Fantastic!

[Epicox6186]

[Xinxv2]

[yoshibeast12]

Eargasmic!

[superiorflyer89]

[ROWROWFITEDAPOWAH]

[Bboy1Horizon]

loooooooooool yeah xD :P jokes :P

[JeanHorn]

uno me los mejores punteos mas chevr

[drawnacrol]

incredible song

[theinmortal6]

My fav instrumental.I don´t like a lot power metal,but things like Gamma Ray,Primal Fear or Stratovarius make this genre sound great.

[darkelf1234567xD]

theinmortal6

I'm completely agree with you... the new bands of power metal are just technical, including stratovarius but in my opinion they have good themes... but now the power metal is not the same... even now gamma ray is changing for the new power metal... sadly

[Chunkylova53]

@darkelf1234567xD

Well, every band has to eventually change or their albums will all be the same. And who knows, maybe the musicians like playing technical music.

[darkelf1234567xD]

@Chunkylova53

I'm agree with you ... but the technical is not everything... I love the all classic power metal not the new that is just machines...

[ensife]

una de las mejores melodias de Stratovarius.

[donaldbressan]

Stratosphere is fantastic!! Stratovarius is fantastic!! Oh my God, I love this band!

[Kraviotho]

StratoVarrius

Why i Forget this Holly song!!!

[DARKLORDSATAN]

[Excessummako]

[koke666im]

[xXxN3V3RxXx]

[ensife]

[QtipRocketLauncher]

This is only one of the best. But I do say that this song is awesome.

[espectaculardavidrcq]

Magnifico Stratovarius!!

[marcovarius]

Neo-Powercal Metal :)

[DARKLORDSATAN]

nice Power metal and neo classical put together.....ince word splicing :D

[Roflmaomaolol]

when the song reaches 1:28 +- it sounds just like metallica dont know why but i love both bands :)

[ItsDungeonTime]

hecks no

[fireguye4]

uh not really

[YaYoTr0n]

Stratovarious is Power Metal Neoclassic

[alexfheind]

3:10 stratosphere :3 i love it

[Mr2Interactive]

hell yes. 3:10 is world domination in music history. NO WAIT, 0:01 to 5:46 is total world domination :D

[CyricRO]

This is Power metal, let it be done with.

Don't believe me?  Listen to more power metal, and it'll become apparent.

[rnmatkov]

Epic. Great song

[xxxflawxxx]

anyone worried about the genre of this , let it be, who fucking cares just enjoy it . call all heavy music metal ,and shut the fuck up!

[edward2990]

i love this song is the best stratovarius forever!!! <3<3<3<3

[MonkeyCurler2]

Amazing song though I wasn't crazy about the last half around 3:30. Just doesn't really seem to fit the song.

[otinana]

Great song...respect.

[lennoth]

The Holy light will shine on you and you will see the true melodic metal!! asshole

[cowkillaz]

Who the F*CK cares strato is metal or not.....If you like their songs just listen to it. If you dont then dont listen....

[HolyChristianMetal]

Cool sound!

[Lazermuffin]

Epic. New favorite Power metal band.

[Warriordrake23]

fantastic such as their all songs....assolutamente unici

[hihipieguy]

would this genre be considered speed metal?

[allthesametakemeaway]

no, stratovarius is power metal

to be specific they are older style European melodic power metal because they were around when the sub genre was still relatively new, and by many are considered a classic European power metal band

[church7089]

I believe you are right. I classify them as Melodic Metal, but they are really Melodic Power Metal.

[allthesametakemeaway]

calling them melodic metal is still right, but melodic power metal is more specific

[Slayerdungeonmaster]

I think Strato is not metal.

[LukED87]

I think you are retarded.

[allthesametakemeaway]

just cuz its his opinion that they're not metal doesn't mean he's retarded :P

[LukED87]

who are you?? his bro??

For me If you are not accepting some facts then you must be retarded. The fact is that Stratovarius is a METAL band. Whether everyone likes it or not.

no, im not his brother

and if you think that, thats fine

but i think
