OK I LOVE THIS I BUT TELL ME WHEN YNGWIE WAS WRITING SONGS LIKE THIS STYLE IT WAS JUST CALLED HEAVY METAL NOW THIS BAND DOES IT AND THEY CALL IT POWER METAL??ITS GOOD NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT!!!TOO BAD TIMO LEFT THE BAND
@byTorstipappa well... after the whole stratovarius split up thing kotipelto chose not to sing this way, since tolkki "forced" him to sing this way, being the composer. So it's not like he can't get this high, he doesn't like it.
@psirockin73 haha so true. I didn't listen to Father time in a few years since there are just too many Strato songs I like, but afterward I listened to DragonForce and I knew I heard the Woo oh part somewhere, then when I listened to Stratovarius again I realized "lol DragonForce copied them XD". Not that I hate DF, though. It's my 3rd favorite band.
@TrueIronMaidenFan Wrong ! Timo Tolkki is the Song writer, Producer, and Guitar Extraordinare of this group. kotipelto has only written a few of the songs but, he isn't responsible for Stratovarius's Brilliance. I guess you haven't been a fan since the beginning.
@perpetual61 rofl, or maybe he has been fan from the beginning. In the three first albums, Kotipelto wasn't singing, it was Tolkki. Tolkki will always be the number one Stratovarius singer.
@Hoorayforfakes I do think "Darkest Hours" is good. But just listen to it. It's nowhere near as good as this. To me, it sounds more like a generic power metal band than Stratovarius. I do have my own opinion, and I am sure Stratovarius will never be as good as it was during the later 90's. Thanks for the advice, but I don't need you to tell me what to do.
ok for sure stratovarius have many many many great-epic-amazing-fantastic songs but really is there anyone who doesn't agree that ''father time'' is their best??? and after this comes the ''speed of light''...!!!
@hamolechon no problem my friend. :) it actually depends on each one's taste. but just think that ''father time'' belongs to the episode-visions era, the BEST era -by far- of stratovarius.
I played this song the second time I got to the ring... I won by knock out in the second round... The first one was Hell Patrol of Judas Priest: headkick knock out in the first round... metal in mma ftw...
mi top es stratovarius angra avantasia sonata arctica hammerfall DragonGuardian axenstar kamelot Dark moor Dragon force,se ke es malo, pero no lo puedo excluir thankzz
aunque existen muchusimas bandas excelentes, sonata artica, hellowen, forgotten tales, hammerfal, etc etc etc etc el power metal simpre sera uno de los mejores subgeneros del metal
@nsmith0315 IMO this is probably their last great album, I like less and less of their stuff after that. Favourite song probably either "Will the sun rise?" or "Speed of light". Although, their hymn-like songs like "Galaxies", "We hold the key", "Infinity" are pretty good too.
@nsmith0315 a year old.. but im gonna awnser anyway.. my fav song is Eternity.. definitly like the best of all.. at least for now.. cuz Im new listening Stratovarius
uy no viejo usted si es una bestia dios mio....estudie....como dice el compañero...desafinar....como que no sabe nada este weon....por eso es que el mundo es asi ,...por bestias como tu.
AAAAAAAAAA que chimba ps aqui en colombia el ultimo concierto bueno fue el de IRON MAIDEN pero ufff para mi no se compara ningun trabajo de maiden con esta cancion !! Que VIVA el POWERMETAL Y STRATOVARIUS!!!
fucking stratovarius, has such an special music...
this is my 10th year listening to them and im sure there will be plenty more
(of the good old stratovarius, not the new non-timo 'stratovarius')
