tony is wonderful!!!! maybe he hasn't the voice of other metal singer (maybe) but I love him at live!! I saw him this year and his voice was incredible....definetely melt my heart, specially with some songs....
For those who said Elias sucks. Tell you what, Elias already had 2 solo shredding albums BEFORE he joined Sonata Arctica. All 2 albums are awesome, try to listen to them to see the real skill of Elias! I don't mean Jani sucks, both of them are awesome, but show Elias some respect pls!
@MegaPowerMetalero eliay cant play live? if you think that you don´t know him . you know the song " lord of the strings" of him? than you see hes great
@MegaPowerMetalero el problema es por la mezcla de sonido final de la grabación capo, no es por el guitarrista, tenes que ser audiófilo para darte cuenta, y para saber esto que te dije.
Here's some food for thought... constantly arguing like little girls over who is better, is just as bad as that whole Team Edward, Team Jacob thing going on. I hate listening to girls talk and argue about Twilight, please do not start the same thing here in the metal universe. It's okay to state your opinion on the matter, just don't fight over it like little girls, and enjoy the music. That IS why you came to look up this video in the first place right? I like both Jani and Elias btw.
@theendofourchapters You'll hate me even more now.. Saw them at this years Bloodstock Festival.. and Have tickets for theyre show in London next year :D :D
awesome! but why they dont play the 2.37 part with doublebass ? : ( its sounds so fantastic when the drums start the double bassing in studio version!!!
tony's screaming.... love it! and these wacken and graspop videos' sound are taken straight from the mixertable thing.... so that's why it sounds crappy. 19.2. sonata @ tampere finland :)
It's nothing like that. Playing with a pick gives the Bass a sharper sound which might be suiting this type of music, though I have to say that the bass was in general bad sounding (not due to the pick). If you were to compare it to drums it would be more appropriate to compare it to the usage of different types of drumsticks such as rods and brushes. That itself would also be a pretty ridiculous comparison, though better than yours.
@Quake227 Why exactly? It seems to me that most people with that opinion are just being "elitist" because they heard some "really cool" bassist once say that they prefer to use their fingers. It's just a matter of preference and what sound you want to get.
I remember there was a live version of this on youtube from right after elias joined the band, on something called RadioRock. that was a pretty cool version, kind of like this one.
they're both good versions, but I prefer the arrangement they used for the album.
Just THANK YOU for the best video I ever found for this song...
This is just the perfect song to me, this is my favorite song of Sonata Arctica and my favorite song of all bands ever, I was almost crying when they played it in Lyon, it was such a surprise, I didn't expected them to play it...
Well, I just wanted to thank you once again ^_^
Sonata Arctica rules, and they become more and more good, even if not everybody loves their evolutions.
Wait for The Days of Grays and see who's the best!
awsome song! with great back up vocals a freind asked me, what band I've been listing to. I told them and they said who? thats messed up that not to many people in the in the United states of America know who these guys are
most americans iv spoke to in some way dont know much about europe really, specially for the music side of it, but theres such a variety here in europe that they should knw :), love the band anyway, need to see them live! :P
