  • Ville is looking so healthy and well at the moment. Really fantastic to see.

  • One of my favourites by them

  • This inspired me when I was writing my novel. ;3 It is just a great song.

  • Ville was TOTALLY wrong! This is one of THE BEST songs on the entire album! Of course, the whole thing is absolutely brilliant, but I love this one the most!

  • That lovely voice. I love: 3

  • I can't believe he said people will hate it! It's my favorite song on the album. It is so surreal and ethereal and just beautiful! I adore it!

  • no !..i don,t hate this song, i LOVE,LOVE,LOVE it ! x

  • I love the whole song it's just amazingly done, I being 20 years old love 80's 90's music and It defiantly is one of the best songs on the album. :]

  • it's my favorite song on that album!

  • FAVORITE SONG FROM THE ENTIRE ALBUM!!!!..... the song kicks sooooooo well with my badass system and the subwoofer.. the sub kicks so hard. KEEP making more of this!

  • The Foreboding Sense of Impending Happiness is my Fav HIM song :)

  • Its my favorite song on that album!!!!!!!

  • More 80's boomboom for me, please!!!! <3

  • However! He's wrong about it being the song that fans would hate the most... I think it was the most 'HIM' track on the album...

  • I adore this man and the band's music... I've loved them since 1999 and that won't ever change. But the fact that he sounds American at times and that they have become ever so slightly American-ised is really disappointing.

  • at first i hated the song but if you put you soul in mind in the song you start to like it :)this song is like a drug to me 

  • Its so funny at the beginning when he said the title of track xDD lol.

    love the song :)

  • I hate this song, if you get the feeling i get and understand it perfectly ...you should hate it too , but you just keep on listening to it because it's a part of you in there! just like a drug , know it makes you not good hearing it , but you can't stop! and so you get to play it again and again !

  • This is my favorite song of the new album and I cannot believe when he said this song gonna be the most hated. I cried the first time I've heard this song. No words needed but PERFECT.

  • this song is special...i love it!!! is great!!!:X

  • It's my fave song on the album and I think one of the best songs on it =D

  • Hell no no way I could hate that song. Its my fav for sure. Its even inspired me to write a vid for it. very dreamy. Its the kind of song that I could lay down under the stars on repeat and live in my imagination forever with <3

  • I cried when I heard it for the first time.

  • My most favourite HIM song ever. It's incredible, everytime I hear it...words can't describe how I feel...it totally gives me the shivers...

  • My most favourite HIM song ever. It's incredible, everytime I hear it...words can't describe how I feel...

  • althought i LOVE every song on the album, this one is at the bottom for me. I just didn't warm up to it, but i maybe i haven't yet given it a good chance to. :)

  • Love this a bit DnB song

  • It's a great sex song! Lol

  • this is actually my favorite one off the whole album. ♥

  • ahhh linde *_*

  • linde on steroids = epic

  • one of my favorite songs, thank you ville for trying something new

  • its awesome to smoke a bong load to! lol great stoner music lol HIM RULES NEW AND OLD!!!

  • it kicks ass!

    

  • lol ville i love the forboding sense of impending happiness my absolute fave!!!!!

  • From this album I love only "Katherine Wheel" and "In the arms of rain" more than this one. How anyone could hate it? It's so profound. Personally, I hate "St. Valentine", it's just too strange for me.

    "You open me up"

  • This song means so much for me.

  • I really liked this song. I enjoyed the remixed versions on Uneasy Listening so this was cool that they made an original song w/ all the fx & what not.

  • haha i love how he says popeye

    and definetly this song is great!! its different, of course, but in a good way

  • doesn't remind me that much of top gun as it does a cross between a song on the first lost boys' movie soundtrack and the twin peaks theme song ... either way it's probably my favorite on the album..glad they kept it

  • i love the song its my third fav on the album

    1Acoustic funeral

    2 katherine wheel

    £the foreboding sence of impending happiness

  • I was surprised by this song, but I do enjoy it. I take a long walk almost every day when the weather is nice during which I listen to a full HIM album and just think about the music. It's relaxing.

  • This was my favorite song on the album really o_O It was poetic. I got tired of St. Valentine and Heartkiller. It was like they just had a big hat full of love related words, and they just pulled a couple out. It was stale sounding. When ALL of your music is about love there's really only so many albums you can make. I'd like it if more songs were like this one. Sounded much fresher I thought.

  • I believe this is the new direction that him needed to take. Their loosing their appeal. This song helped me regain some faith in them.

  • I think this song is powerful :)

  • I Love this song..

    and for some reason I dont know why I allways think of a 80's kinda party in space o,O

  • "And the doctor said that... that to Linde, 'Have you been injecting yourself with uh...' uhwell something what the bodybuilders use. And Linde was like, 'Well look at me, definitely not."

    LOL he's THE perfect storyteller.

  • I agree with DarkAngelSoul100. I adore this song, it has a very sexual rhythm beginning very slowly and building up...makes we ponder.....................

  • This is my absolute most favorite song so far by H.I.M. I LOVE it so much. According to my iTunes, I listened to it about 300 times. I say different!

  • "You open me up, open me up" *sigh* What a lovely line.

    I love how he says the lines...almost as if he's forgotten them! ;)

    Regarding the "most hated song" bit -- this was, in fact, my least favourite song upon first hearing the album, but I've grown to love it very much.

  • This is seriously one of the sexiest songs I have ever heard.

  • @OushGisher Very very very sexual

  • My fav song on the album by far

  • No way! Fucking no way...

    I want to find out his number so i can mail him a message 6 pages long. This is the ONLY good song on this album. Absolutely unbelievable. I don't know if the band members are really going through happy time of life so this album is bursting with Ville's happy voice and sweet sounds. I can't believe how far they've gone from their past sound. Only the valentine and the foreboding sense can stand out as songs with no happy sound refrain. ... totally disappointed....

  • @amakoxsudeki Seriously? I knew there'd be some people like you. Yes their music has changed a little, but its got so much better from the change. They HAVE changed anyways, Villie stopped drinking and smoking and other changes in the bad have happened. DEAL WITH IT. God forbid a band experiments and does something different instead of making the same stuff for nearly 20 years. Enjoy their old music, but embrace the changes. Seriously man, smile for once

  • @adam0900909 I Can't believe you are saying that we need to embrace new things!! Can't you hear Ville speaking that THIS song is experiment and that they are doing some music like this at home. I AM embracing new stuff, but only those of good quality. Ville hadn't stop drinking and smoking. It's nonsense. Maybe he reduced consummation of those but stopped...I don't think so. I would be glad if he did :D

    However, this is nice album, but pretty much commercialized. Peace.

  • Everything...EVERYTHING about this amazing

    man is so unique...inside & out

    I can just sit for hours listening, looking at him

  • I love how this song sounds like it's a remix evethough it's the actual album version. I wonder how a remix of this song would sound then...:D

  • Comment removed

  • best song on album!!!

  • is there a video for katherine Wheel

  • @JxAxRx1613 no

  • I love love love this song! I could listen to it all day long and never get sick of it. I think they should do some more of this kind of music or come out with a instrumental CD with all the best songs.

  • aww, i can't believe he thought people would hate this song, it's one of my favorites! It's just soo damn good, even my mom loves this one. lol.

  • You can hear the Depche and Duran in this track. This album is worth the wait.

  • His mind is beautiful!!!

  • Best song on screamworks luv it!!

  • Aww Ville thought this song would be the most hated.. I think it's beautiful and creative. Whatever song he comes up with I'd love it no matter what cause it's coming from his heart and it takes a very special kind of person to be able to come up with lyrics as good as his.

  • Definitely one of my favorites from the album ^.^

    I love Ville <3

  • The best for me...I love that kind of songs

  • The man has the deepest, sexiest voice I've ever heard.

  • I absolutely love this song!!!

  • this song is my favorite song on the cd. I love it Ville! The lyrics are beautiful to me.

  • all boombastic and crazy???? haha!! VILLE VALO IS GOD!!!!!!!! and he has the most amazing voice ever.... he really is god..

  • My favourite too...mystic song

  • Got to respect them as musicians for releasing a song which is so far out of their normal genre. I think its a fantastic song. 10/10 love the way the beat kicks in at 2.13. More of this on your next album please Ville .

  • that's my favorite song from the album

  • Definitely my favorite song on the album...It's amazing <3

  • The only way to describe how I feel about this song, is through another song, "Head Over Heels"; which is coincidentally a cheesy 80's song.

  • The scoring of the official version is suggest Oxygen from Jean Michel Jarre.

    It's a good way guys! Keep it up!

    AMAZING!

    I LOVE IT!

  • I just love this song!!!! makes me feel so.... good!!!

  • this song makes me tingly

  • I don't see how this would be one of the most hated songs on the album.....by far it's one of my favorites!

  • This is one of my favorite songs on the album.

  • He referenced Fellini? What the fuck? I don't see how those lyrics relate to him, but ah well...

  • he's in love....

  • i love this song. i cant stop singing it and writing the lyrics in a heartagram fashion like it was in the CD booklet lol

  • i freakn love that song!!! :D

  • Yea its my favorite song on the album next to Acoustic funeral for love in limbo....and i didnt grow up in the 80s :P its a beautiful song

  • 3:19

    Haha! Sound effects!! :D

  • I can't believe he thought this one would be the most hated... guess what Ville... this is my favo ")

  • @November86 I agree, one of the best on the album. Most certainly top 3.

  • @November86 You took the words right out of my mouth. ^_^

  • I love 80s music and I love this song. I think it's the best of the album

  • lol by far my favorite song on the album.

  • ville this song is incredible you should make an album with that kind of music .just to see what HIM can produce other than venus doom dark light or love metal which by the way are great albums but another record with that same theme would be boring ,Screamworks is a very original work and i place it with two other favorites Grt Love songs Vol 666 and love metal.

  • fucking mint tune

  • funny thing is... thats my favourite song. i didn't grow up in the 80's. i just love it. its my fav song on the album

  • my fav song on the album, and i love ville :)

  • @xiLucifer

    totally agree,it IS the most amazing song, when i first heard it i had goosebumps..

  • bullshit, this is best song on album!! why he's sayng ppl will hate?!:P

  • i love how he says its the one everyone is going to hate the most when in reality it is the greatest song on the album.

  • This song is lovely :)

    Absolutely beautiful music, lyrics, everything

    It's my favorite song on the album most definately!

    xx

  • holy crap hear his voice while he isnt singing unbelievable

  • Ville could write a song thats pure shit, and people would love it. Thats how good he is.

  • anyone know how he got this pretty strong american accent ? i remember listenin to an interview sometime in 2001 and being so surprised he could speak excellent british english..

  • recording 3 albums and multiple tours in the US?

  • it proves that HIM are real about there music, they where awesome live on thursday night was three meteres from ville

  • the song makes me think of the acrobats in say, circ du soliel. just so pretty and graceful. it's a beautiful song, my fave from the album

  • Best song on the album, hands down.. would be perfect if linde jumped in at some point... but... still top!

  • Boy is Ville so wrong about the fans not liking the song. I love it, I knew when I first heard it that it had a Depeche Mode sound to it.

    Great song guys ;p

  • I feel like i wanna dance and sing to the tune of the song! i love it!!!

  • That song is one, if not THE favorite off of the album for me. Then again, I grew up listening to The 80's music and Black Sabbath. (why the hell do you think I love this band). It takes you to a totally different place when you listen to it. ♥

  • This is my favorite song on the album!!!!

  • amazing song reminds me of type o negative

  • This song is like a return to Razorblade Romance and Deep Shadows, it reminds me of Love you like I do and Beautiful. I really like it, the perfect end for the album!

  • What was named Elvis?!

  • i disagree with Ville. this would be one of my favorites in this album. it has the rhythm of the 80's, maybe that's why i love it. but it really is beautiful. love it ---love it!!!!!!!

  • This song is haunting, mysterious, magical .... It's beautiful!! Love it =)

  • i think that it is an amazingly beautiful song... holy cow... the HIM i fell in love with... bravo

    welcome back...

  • honney....... why did u change the name tho???? smother a heart was perfect...

  • i love this song Ville you are so sweet !

  • im almost dying just looking at you.... <3

  • r u kittieng me ville? why would enyone hate this song?this is my favorite from the album and if i think about it,its my favorite from all the athor albums too!when i first heard it i transcended to another dimention :))

  • this is my favorite on the new album as well, even though it doesnt sound like the rest of their beautiful songs its still SO amazing!!!

  • i love this song the most in the whole goddamn album!

    it has elements from every album HIM has made so far, with the darkness of Dark Light and all!

    then again the whole album kinda does to me ^^'

    a work of art i must say.

    -][=][-][-][\/][-

  • actualy my favorite song on the album. i love the chorus.

  • This song is fucking haunting to listen to, and the title is just beautiful. It's by far one of the best on the albulm, and perhaps the best ending song yet, though I can't get over One Last Time.

    And I'm glad he mentioned Vangelis as an inspiration, cause it really reminds me of Memories of Green.

  • awesome song :D does anyone have the chords? I can't find them anywhere... :(

  • people are not gona hate it Mr. Valo!!!! people love it!!!!!!! shitt! i listen to it all the time!!!!!!!!!!

  • Personally I think the truth is... In Venere Veritas is a HIGHLY overrated song, and The Forboding Sense of Impending Happiness deserves alot more recognition, not by fans but by the band that made it. :)

  • @m4tt4life

    I love this song...it's my favourite of the entire album...

  • Ville, are you high???? Mostof us LOVE this song ( can't speak for all) but I LOVE this song--please perform it when you come to ATLANTA in MAY--I will be the wee young black chick in the FRONT ROW screaming and acting like a damn fool next to a hubby that loves you just as much, if not more, than I do!

    The song rawks--do a video for it! Pleeeease.

    *regaining composure*

    Okay--carry on...

  • I LOVE THIS SONG---ahem--I mean....this song is way kewl....glad to see how the tune evolved...

    the scars baby--the scaaaars,,,,

    Love...

  • It's actually the one I love the most, lol.

  • @Sindezz Me too~ I cry ever time! So beautiful to me.

  • love this song!

  • i fucking love this song!!!! @_@

  • This song is the bomb of the album.

  • I love it ♥

  • I didn't grow up in the 80's but I loved this song, In the arms of rain is also one of my favorites off the new album. I've noticed that this album isn't as dark as their others, it's more like peace and happiness, considering what he's said about the songs.

  • Again...again...again....this song is fck amasing!!!!!I'm fascinated!!!

  • For me personally, this is the best track on the album. It creates ethereal and other-worldly imagery which I love. My only wish was that is was longer - it would be great if it was a 10 minute epic musical journey. But alas I shall have to settle with 3 minutes. Beautiful track nonetheless.

  • OMG I've thought, have been thinking, and still am thinking the same thing ever since I heard it in full. I made a similar comment on queenofthedamned31's vid of it saying I can only imagine (unfortunately) what it would be clocking in at like an Opeth type of 15 minute masterpiece. I'm actually pretty bothered by that. I wish there was so much more of that song to love. I wish Ville could know that so many of us already love this track despite what he assumed earlier. HIM is amazing.

  • I like the way you think iwtdeiwstl - scratch what I said about 10 minutes - some sort of 15 minute odyssey sounds perfect to me. Maybe throw in one or two more surreal verses and let the music of the five lovely Finnish gents take you away. As Dr. Seuss once stated, "Oh, the places you'll go" - musically speaking in this case. The fact the song begins to dwindle down at 2:40 and then fades out completely is such a shame, but I'm grateful that they decided to experiment a bit and share it.

  • KUDOS to you, my fellow HIM fan. I actually started thinking what if they were to make an entire album that 80s synth/electronica vibe with a touch of their own unique style, of course. I love so much the fact that they are so diverse and gives us so many different sounds to embrace and cherish. Also, what about a progessive type of record? You know, Rush/Opeth type of thing with that beautiful dose of HIM? Random and off the wall time sigs, more experimentation, just widening of the parameters.

  • My favorite track... literally expresses every emotion I've ever felt it's amazing

  • I close my eyes and i can´t stop to listen this song again and again.

  • i was born in 88 and i LOVE IT! love the beats and how it sounds. my favorite song ever!

  • I don't hate it, i love it the most!

  • the intro reminds me of the intro from 'welcome home (sanitarium)

  • Incredibile!!!!!

  • well, the lyrics and the song title are really intelligent, but I can't actualy like the music, it's just........ strange

  • this song will be a surprise, u will find out why from the beggining ;)

  • why is this song a surprise ?

  • and it's beggining...which can be heard in this video too..sounds a bit like the end of ""under the rose""

  • my comm hasn''t appeared.This song, katherine wheel and in the arms of rain are my fav but TFSOIH is special, it's the best album ending song, it's like the last chapter of a volume of a book, giving u a special feeling, conclusios of the vol before and mistery for what will be after,it's really a "foreboding sense of impending happiness", a "bye bye and see ya soon, i'll be back" or sort of a cassandra positive prediction for ville's mysterious ""katherine wheel", "venus doom",he looks in love
