  • this man's voice is nice but PASI IS GOD, nothing's the same without him. he might not be technically a better singer but his voice's got much more feeling

  • While I do agree with the people saying that this song is definitely better with Pasi, that's just because his voice is more suited to this song, not because he's a better singer.

    At the very least Tomi handles this song reasonably well given how massively different his vocal style is. Pasi wouldn't even be capable of singing stuff from Joutsen-era Amorphis

  • Id love for them to release this with his voice

  • tomi's clean vocals kinda suck on live but i do have to say his growls are really good

  • What does he say when present the song? .... on Alone cant understand before that.. Lol

  • he can sing all songs the best

  • they need to rerecord this song with him, i prefer his voice over the original

  • Tomi has a bear inside!

  • every time i listen to amorphis i get goosebumps

    amorphis is such an amazing band

  • Best Song from Amorphis!

  • Fuck yeah Amorphissssssssssssssssss

  • to do list:

    put flowers on your grave

  • this song doesn't suit his voice at all :S Pasi sang it so much better.

  • @sheburnslikethesunn Even though I love Tomi and hate Pasi, I have to agree with this comment. Somehow Pasi's emotionless voice works much better for this song than Tomi's.

  • MAN I LOVE IT!

  • As Much as I Like Tomi..I Prefer Pasi singing This The First Time Round..But RaaaRRRrrr for Amorphis WooYeahh .. \m/ ...*Nods*

  • JESUS! I love amorphis!

  • The verse dosn't sound so good with Tomi's voice but the chorus sounds absofukinglutely fantastic! 

  • the frontman's voice sucks! bring back tom to the front!

  • Been stuck on them ever since

  • Not many people that I know over here in the states even know who amorphis is, i stumbled on this song on a metal dvd compilation

  • Supergeile Liveband!!!

  • yeah ok his voice is different that Pasi's but hey think of it this way.Imagine Pasi singing the songs that Tomi singed.It wouldnt sound as good.The point is old amorphis and new amorphis sound great.

  • Tomi has a very deep voice and his growls give me goosebumps but i still prefer the clean metal sound of Pasi's voice in this song.....

  • Pasi was the reason why I gave up on Amorphis with Elegy. The music was good but the guy just doesn't put any emotion into the singing. I am glad to say that Tomi has restored my love for Amorphis.

  • Too bad he can't sing this song as good as Pasi but I still love this band

  • did i mention these guys are great.

  • step aside from the way of the better man than you, good song, good lyrics, Suomi on mahtava btw can anyone decipher what he says at the opening?

  • Comment removed

  • @1russian100 He says Thank you! Very impressive work out there. Thank You!

  • Nice to hear Joutsen's version. Just as much impact as the first time I heard it on Am Universum; which was the first time I heard Amorphis. Not better then Koskinen, different. A good different.

  • JUST AWESOME !!

  • amorphis is fukin great today yesterday and forever.as is maiden,death,mercyful fate.great shit.

  • Awesome ;D

  • Tomi on paljon parempi. Äänikin paljon kantavampi ku Pasilla! Ei Pasi siis huono ollut mut Tomi viel kyl ylivoimasesti.

  • Pasi had a lot of voice problems at lives(with no growls at all). Tomi just rules everything...

  • PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!! *¬*

  • @XWarHammeRsX i want some \m/

  • i do prefer the original singer on this song :) hes done it good but its not the same :( \m/

  • DAMN IT!!!!.....i still haven't get used to Tomi ...:(...i loved Pasi's voice made Amorphis totally unique to me.....

  • with all respect. Watch at the yt last dvd Amorphis - Forging the land... and look for the "Alone". Tomi sings this much better than Pasi. Maybe 4 years ago not exactly but. Right now, Amorphis with Tomi is damn unique and BEST band.

  • @SA3LLARX yea... tomi is pretty unique to do what he does

  • i prefer pasi's voice to this song

  • I love Tomi as an singer but the old songs are definitly Pasi songs!

  • me gusta mas el otro vocalista jeje

  • great vocals

  • I'd say Toni is a better all around vocalist, especially in growling, but Pasi does this song better. This version is still good though.

  • what happened with pasi when he leave the band?

    mm, anyone can tell me why he leave ?

  • @cityofdelain

    Pasi joined the band ''Shape of Despair'' where he uses very low black metal growls.

    I'm not sure if you will like him there, it's nothing like his amorphis vocals.

  • I have thrills on my back when he sings the chorus.... and actually it's all masterpiece! music, lyrics, vocal... pure masterpiece!

  • Calm down, leave Tomi alone, he has deep and melodic voice, but here he sounds like he has a runny nose. His growl is awesome and looks like he feels the song. Pasi is very pretty in a clip for this song, now he's ugly and his voice is a bit creepy. It doesn't mean I don't like Pasi, I do, but in my opinion Tomi is better.

  • Pasi is better for this song, and for this band.

  • @AriesBG you have to listen to this song live with Pasi... really bad it will change your my mind truste me!

  • Está claro que que ha habido un antes y un despues. Casi que se podrían ver dos grupos diferentes respecto a las voces y la personalidad que le ha dado cada uno de sus cantantes. Pero no es para cerrarse, ésta canción debe quedar ahí como indispensable para representar a Amorphis, y creo que Tomi cuida y respeta la esencia de lo anterior... Soy más de los primeros discos, pero el Amorphis actual está tambien muy bien trabajado y merece respeto sin tanta comparación.

  • @Cenedriade I agree, both singers are good in each one's time with the band, one is not good or bad. Then was then, now is now. I enjoy both immensely.

    Sorry I didn't respond in Spanish, I'm a bit out of practice

  • Magic

  • they should have got a hold of tomi a long time ago ,

  • @demianslab

    They aren't popular but the music that they do is worth to be the best :)

  • yeah, definitely a Pasi song

  • Whooaaaaa, can´t keep up to Pasi on the record... The growls kill the atmosphere.

  • I love Pasi on the albums but he sucks live. I like this version, Tomi has an amazing voice!

  • Tomi made it clear this is not his song by ruining it.

  • see to play great music you dont need to be in drop b

  • This version sucks...

  • Does he have dreads? wow. lol.

  • Haha you people just haven't listened enough to this song... It's Pasi's, and this just sounds wrong. Even though it's not bad ;)

  • aah I like the voice of tomi joutsen more, it's personal I guess if you like passi or joutsen more ;)

  • @oohwyeah

    Tomi is a more skilled vocalist than Pasi.

  • @Tamdarion

    Yes.

    But Pasi's vocals are unique.

  • @reafras

    I don't think you should compare them - they both add something unique to the band' music

  • pleeeeeease come to america!!!!! this band is way too awesome to only keep them on one side of the ocean!

  • :D just pay enough, and they will

  • awesome growl im proud to be finnish :D

  • amen for that

  • His voice is so damn sexy *.*

  • WOW this song is so much better sung by Tomi

  • Agreed

  • anyone has the mp3 or a download link from this concert???

  • does anyone know where to get the tabs for this song .....

  • Holy eff I loved how he added the growl in there. I liked it.

  • I miss Pasi =[. it just doesn't feel right hearing his song sung by somebody else. i mean Tomi is a damn good vocalist his harsh vocals are just incredible and his cleans are pretty mind blowing, but i just don't get quite the same vibe from his stuff as i did the older material.

  • They're compleeeeeetely different.  This really is a Pasi song, although Tomi can still hold his own. I always loved Pasi's voice because it was so unique, but he could never control his voice enough to make his performance flawless. Tomi has a completely unique voice also and it's awesome. Pasi wouldn't be able to sing Tomi's stuff.

  • Sounded nice,even thou I liked the original singer better,this guy did a good job.

  • WHAT A VOICE!!!

  • @dAedAleAnMiNd very great voice

  • I think the new lead singer sings this song just as amazingly as the old one does.

  • can't wait see them in thessaloniki greece!

  • file ksereis ama tha erthoun?

  • I saw them live with Pasi in 2000 and while the band was incredibly tight and inspired, Pasi's vocals weren't very good at all. Plus he looked bored out of his mind, or maybe he was trying to be "intense" or something. Anyhow, saw them again last year with Tomi and WOW!! Much, much better frontman.. better interaction with the audience and he sounded great. He's the total package.

  • can't wait to see them in Athens !!!!!!!!!

  • fuck yeah i listen this song for the firts time in my life live !!!! past 14 sep and i cry!!!! long life amorphis

  • Damn, Tomi is an amazing growler!

  • @Glasstomten not only

    he is hot hahahaha

  • best song

  • esto es para ti cachorro mamon

  • tomi is a much more versatile singer than pasi, and can do both growls and clean vox perfectly

  • If there's doubt about Pasi's ability to growl, you should check out his new projects, Shape of Despair and Ajattara. And in terms of clean vox, I feel that Tomi is...not to be mean, but lacking...he doesn't project and emote, his clean tone is too level...Don't get me wrong though, I don't dislike him, just prefer and miss Pasi.

  • i havent heard pasi's growling work so i should give that a listen. I love his clean voice tho

  • Well Pasi may be a better growler, and his clean voice are good to (not standard) but Tomi got this special "Deep but still beautiful" and he got emotion in it to, even if he doenst show it with his body expression.

    But still, everyone got his favourite vocalist ;)

  • True enough and here here brother! You prefer Tomi, I prefer Pasi, but we both LOVE Amorphis, yes? That's what matters most!

  • Was just about to say it :D

    Amorphis is on my absolute favourite bands :)

  • Pasi never growled in amorphis, the guitarist used to do.

  • im not sure, but he can better than this guy, listen to him in shape of despair and ajattara.

  • amorphis lo mejor los esperamos en chile

  • I have the biggest mancrush on Tomi Joutsen.

  • I am an old man, I know and have listened to much music in my life.

    Amorphis is the best - The End

  • @timstpetefl good to know that, most 'old men' will still keep on listening to iron maiden, megadeth, metallica, guns and roses and all of those old rock bands that are way too overrated.

  • @lpz2

    That is just true man. waaaay overrated...

  • Amorphis - the Gods!!!!!! No discussion

  • I agree with you, amorphis are the gods of music

  • tomi makes that song even better

  • I love Tomi's voice, Pasi annoyed me

  • i like pasi better but tomi is great regardless

  • Everyone has his own taste. Pasi is good, but I personally prefer Tomi.

  • Tuomas and Esa Holopainen-----> The Best composers of our time!

  • Oh how right you are my friend!

  • brothers????

  • lemmie guess you two are from finland? there both good but not the best....there are thousands of great composers out there , esa is great tho :p

  • just because they think two Finnish song writers are two of the best doesn't mean they're Finnish. I agree with them!

  • No, I don't think they're brothers. Might be from the same family line though.

  • oh my fu....... god why ....tell me why..........

    i dont likethis version.

    the last version is better

  • this is the best singer ever! =P

  • I like this version much better

  • this song is made for Pasi, that's why it's a bit harder for Tomi, but he did it perfectly.

  • he has got a amazing voice, I love this version of "alone"!

  • now wtf, i was just in amorphis gig and the singer was absolutely AWSOME, handles the clean and growl even better than in the albums.

  • fuck you. thats all i have to say.

  • Holopainen rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ESP jytisee

  • all amorphis singer are good!

    But tomi is the best!

    and the newest! xD

  • this guy is better then the new guy.

  • yeah i realised that after researching about this band. This guy is the better singer. I thought he was the old singer. That wouldnt make sense lol...cleary this guy is better hehe.

  • dumb shit, this is the new guy. since eclipse, retard.

  • Tomi is GREAT!!! I love him!!!!

  • tämä on loistava!

  • No ei vitussa raiskaa. Upea veto.

  • great voice!!

  • I love them!!!! Just want to see them live one more time.

    I really think both Tomi and Pasi are great :)

  • Old singer, new singer. They are both very good. This is a great live performance

  • Tomi is an excelent frontman!

  • I prefer pasi's voice, I think that is more suitable, but I don't want quarrel, ok? ^^

  • Does anyone know if this song is on this tours line-up?

  • I like this version of this song better, but maybe I'm bias.. 'cause it's Tomi

  • I realy like Tomi Koivusaarai :P

  • Sexy Tomi

  • brr i think you should stop talkin` about "is Pasi or Tomi better" it doesn`t matter if Pasi Koskinen or omi Joutsen is the vocalist AMorphis Are amorphis the best band in the WORLD and nothing can change that!!!!!!!

  • Pasi is a great singer, but Tomi is good aswell. but their singing style is different. that's all.

  • great song. Fuck, when will morons stop labeling music, just fucking listen to it... who gives a shit if you like it or not? I certainly don't, as long as I think it is good, I don't give a flying fuck what morons think

  • My opinion is based on that fact that Tomi is much more talented singer than Pasi, you can truly notice that if u have listened any of Amorphis old tracks that have been resinged with new vocalist. Ofc there is some fans from the "old good times" that like Pasi better than Joutsen, but I can say what I think and imho this one fits in. Growls and, after all, overall vocals are more personalized and skilled than what they were before. Pronunication is no less than good against Pasi´s uah-eff. sing

  • Bullshit! Hes 10 times better than Pasi. This was a great live performance.
