[Rpgmakero]

Any english-speaker can tell what this song is about? maybe about an encaged wolf?

[MrDeylen07]

Henkka was fucking ON FIRE this night!

The stuff he was pulling off here is phenomenal!

[Telladriel]

LOL if you listen closly you can hear someone saying: ''No'' at 0:30 LOL

[marsogibson]

The idea of change of rate is magnificent in the end of the cage

[xMtysx02]

endless outro hahaha but great!!

[vinicuis1997]

meito loca esa banda sou muito fan

[WolfCoder]

I mean it's kind of close sometimes like at 0:23, the subtitles read "and for The last number..." with Number in English.

[WolfCoder]

uuuh... The Japanese subtitles don't quite say what he's saying.. Haha, the first time I saw this video years ago I had not yet learned Japanese enough to notice that.

[xoreliiva1]

@XoreLiiva damn i miss their old line up :(

[SpriteBat]

All metal bands should watch this video and take notes. :)

[sebinounet]

I miss the old "speed melodic" Sonata !

[khyve313]

grandissimi.senza parole.

che peccato che Jani non sia più parte dei Sonata

[AndresRodriguezUrreg]

dEFINITIVAMENTE la mejor cancion de Sonata Muy Buena up Sonata l..l_

[EPMFreak]

Vodka, we need some Vodka, we need some Vodka,.. :D

[TheHenriqueTORT]

Henrik e Jani toca de mais os caras sao os melhoresss!!!

[LuvMomoXO]

i like this one more than the original... its just has even MORE emotions and that last part is magical :'3

[magge55555]

"The longhaired band"??? xD

[melkyrion]

Ahh, i want more liveDVDs from sonata, i cant tell how many times ive watched For the Sake of Revenge, parts of it or straight through, even had to DL the DVD off the webs when i forgot to bring it with my computer and wanted to watch it some more:-P

[LALEYENDADELMETAL]

esta cancion representa la historia de mi vida!!!

[malightcommander]

The lighting technician is going crazy on this song. XD Great song!

[renegad0metal]

i love the keyboad solo at 0:38

[kobolwald]

Enorme canción, buenísima

[bringthedrums]

4:45 i hate myself for not being in the crowd -.-

[Ashran]

Fuck yeah, Vodka for everyone!

[StrykeOrder]

thanks For the Video!!!

[TheMasterCort]

Prefiero oirlos en estudio... Viva SA

[snooloui04]

@5secLAUNCH

Remember when every video wasn't spammed up with stupid copied/pasted comments like yours?

[DaniMostarac]

This is probably one of the best metal songs ever written

[nholst100]

Why did he say this is the last song? His fucking awesome !!!

[BulgarianWarrior632]

for seven people the dream is not alive and apparently.. they do not like vodka o.0

Long Live SONATA ARCTICAA !!!

[ChiskoJuanisimo]

Vodka

We need some vodka!

We need some vodka!

We need some vodka!

Hey!

[Repeat Several Times]

Because vodka's what we need!

Epic song!!!!!

[MistressMistrust]

5:04 "Freedom has a meaning fooor me" = a million nerdgasms.

[MyLightofshadow]

that guy really knows how to sing :B

[JaketheSnakeESP]

@wintergolem If you watch the version from this DVD, it's actually Henkka who does the backing for Broken

[Runningtail]

they do not know how to leave the stage do they? lol, or maybe the drummer got a little carried away :)

[PMwarrior]

4:44 - 5;35 is probably the most epic thing I have ever heard and ever will hear.

[Rhapsody3991]

@PMwarrior no, 6:34 - 6:51 is probably the most epic thing i have ever heard and ever will hear

[sajabaja95]

This video deserves so much more views...

[HessuMMA]

4:44

Holy shit...

[dario1234511]

vodka we need some VODKA WE NEED SOME VODKA SOME FUCKING VOOOOOODKA

[vikmilan]

la mejor banda de todos los tiempos :)

[BurbonPL]

Dragon who?

[novembrinewind]

back when I listened to Elias' solo stuff I've thought he could actually wear jani's boots even over the old fast songs, but then I saw videos from gigs over the last two or three years and they convinced me that he's completly different guitarist and Jani was way better (and imho even technically a lot superior)

I've seen Sonata live a week ago and I'm really pissed off to the fact that during elias' solo you couldn't really hear ANYTHING about any guitar sound... Jani is the best, anyway

[tchatzop]

Jens you are a fucking genius. This guy here is struggling & can't play it right, haha xD

[relicanth101]

@tchatzop I agree... Jens is unbeatable. But I wouldn't say Henkka can't play it. Henkka's playing style is TOTALLY different to Jens's technique and style and to mikko harkin. This is very evident in some solos in reckoning nights. He doesn't do a great job of this solo but check out victorias secret live. Personally I think he does a better job then Jens does (the only time he does though xD).

[JorgexxD]

the keyboard come back :O

[PAYG86]

yeah im 666 person to like this

and who doesnt like it? its a great song

[Fechu1992]

It's simply.6 people dont have a vodka ;)

[silviausen]

6 lady gaga fans

[Metalist00]

umm, is the drummer a man or a woman?

[IngeborgK817]

@Metalist00 A man, his name is Tommy.

[bruss1e]

"Vodka, ah hoshii, Vodka"! lol

I laughed till I cryed when I noticed Tony was singing in Japanese!

Love you all SA, please come back to Japan again soon.

[PMwarrior]

at the begining tony says "haki perkele." according to google translator it means "applied to the devil." strange.

[Plaustic]

@PMwarrior it really is Häkki Perkele!! Häkki means cage and we all know what Perkele means!!

[Plaustic]

@PMwarrior it really is Häkki Perkele!! Häkki means cage and we all know what Perkele means!!

[PMwarrior]

@Plaustic ok my mistake

[lufeibanez]

Jani is fucking amazing and so POSER lol

[metal9lover9maniac]

@lufeibanez Jani is fucking amazing, one of the best guitarists in the world, and he plays so clean. He was influenced by power metal, and he is no fucking poser. Show some respect. I took a look at your channel, you're the one who's the poser.

[lufeibanez]

@metal9lover9maniac

Hey buddy calm down...I was just kidding.

I know who Jani Liimatainen is and how good he can play...he is really one of the best guitarists alive and he has influenced me.

And how can you possibly call me poser anyway? You don't even know me.

So you need to show some respect...just enjoy the music, ok? =]

[lufeibanez]

@metal9lover9maniac Besides how you call me poser just by looking at my channel? I want to learn it LOL

[metal9lover9maniac]

@lufeibanez Yeah man, I couldn't tell you were joking. Anyway, just ignore my comment then. That's awesome that Jani influenced you. He's a fucking godking. The problem is recently, I have noticed all these new Sonata fans, or other people who don't know much about power metal heaping so much praise onto Elias (he is a damn good guitarist) but they get pissed when people praise Jani because it threatens their ignorant perception of Sonata with Elias. Many of them call Jani a poser or insult him!

[suricata3000]

amazing !!I 

[Arcidev1]

That guy has a key board-gasm at the beginning of the song.

[unholyxangels]

@Arcidev1 That is Hennka, he is a bad ass, and the reason I have desided to learn the keyboard/piano.

[tchatzop]

@Arcidev1 Jens Johansson composed the intro & this guy can't actually play it right. But he is ok.

[ikot111]

why didn't Tony starr in the Lord of the rings???

[RatedRKazuo]

i want this kind of song back! not songs from this shitty last album!!

[sonata92]

@RatedRKazuo i agree dude

[Morbycakes]

Sonata Arctica taught me one thing, lights need to get off too.

[Erestoriel]

Lulz, Tony hit Jani with the mic stand and Jani paid it back.

[DhrPoltergeist]

@Erestoriel acording to his personal page on the site is tha tis horse nightmare on stage,

getting swinged with the mic stand XD

[Erestoriel]

@DhrPoltergeist

That is Elias' worst fear on stage, other than falling off and hurting himself. I think Jani's worst fear would have been that there's no booze.

[DhrPoltergeist]

@Erestoriel yes your right, i keep confusing them with each other

[Erestoriel]

@DhrPoltergeist

Jani is the redhead with very fanservice-ish poses and Elias is The Man on stage. It's rather easy to tell them apart.

[AyreonsDimension]

fuck those 6 dislikers

[RAWGONZALEZ]

Aw man, i would give anything just to see these guys in a concert of this kind. Saw them last 10/26 in Uruguay and it was awesome, but they played way too much songs from their last album and little from the first four.

Still, when they played The Cage i was just so fucking happy, about to cry xD!

FUCKING EPIC SONG!

[MetalPenguin1995]

I'm addicted to this song o.o

[TheKalucifer]

(8) The dream is alive, i can run to the hills every night!!!! (8)

Woah. this is real? couldn't... these is magic ... no ... is SA!!!

[Redbloodedsky]

how is it possible that there's no moshpit while they play the Vodka song?

[davem04ify]

wtf ...u cant get chicks pretending to play guitar riffs like that.

[PMwarrior]

@davem04ify wat do u mean

[TheBipOlaar]

the hair of jani is so.......

RED :P

hahaha xD

[Erestoriel]

@TheBipOlaar

Even mine isn't that RED *jealous*

[fiorearmwrestler]

brrrrrrrrrr love them =) who knows when they played in this fabulous way?

[jesper1101]

@anamarija2207 they had too much vodka ;)

[SSBnewk]

@jesper1101 Obiously that, or way too little ;D

[TheKalucifer]

@jesper1101 we want some vodkaaa!!!!

[metal9lover9maniac]

@jesper1101 Don't worry. Sonata's minions will hunt them down. They stand no chance.

[JoshB1901]

@metal9lover9maniac they'll kill for me steal back my freedom set me free.

[Sokonator95]

@jesper1101 No, they had enough.

[valium97582]

This keyboard guy plays crazy fast!!!

[DamnNoNamesxD]

[xXKCHUPEXx]

Great concert! hope they come to Venezuela soon...!

[kakashy92]

i totally love them.. they have changed style now... i still love them but i confess i prefered them in the old days.. now they are still awsome but it is a diffrend genre of music

[Wlffangzz]

@kakashy92 Yeah I miss Ecliptica's style...Now they're too much about progressive ballad...Even Tony said they were doing ballads now

[gamagenin]

This seems to be their very best show. I really get into a "festival-feeling" when watching this. They are very good.

[MangekyouBiaRiNgAn]

epic epic epic

[revengeplan]

FAAARK YES

I so wish i could have been at this concert

[satukar]

cage-häkki perkele!! :D Go Finland!

[adebayore01]

that keyboard guy was very awesome..

[GuitarInPractice]

@adebayore01

Actually this called Metal/Powermetal, but this is on the border of Metal/Rock. some songs are indeed Rock.

[Gigodem]

@GuitarInPractice They are Power/Melodic Metal to be exact, their ballads are Rock. The older Albums are pure Power Metal, with the switch to Nuclear Blast they began to fade to Melodic Metal, on their recent album they are probably Melodic Power Metal.

[ktuluag]

@Gigodem I'd call them more progressive.

[Gigodem]

@ktuluag To a certain degree in the newer albums i guess youre right, but over all you can say they are genius no matter what genre tony touches he makes it his own.

[ktuluag]

@Gigodem Hehehe. He's touched me many times aswell! (not in a perverted way)

[smasherbrawl]

My favorite song!!!!! i love the cage and the lyric!!!

Freedom has a meaning for meeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!
