Hi everyone, just a heads up we have actually reacted to the whole 4 seasons and they are currently on our Patreon waiting to be edited. You can go see the raw versions there now if you like, or wait till they come to TH-cam once I get a chance to edit them. Keep it Metal ✊🤘
I agree. See the video here: th-cam.com/video/u49lCriztEI/w-d-xo.html (This version has description "Here is my mix of Wintersun's Loneliness. It incorporates both the original and the acoustic version to form what I consider to be the Ultimate Version of Loneliness.") As I'm not a huge fan of growling in general, I'd prefer Jari singing everything clean. The only bad thing about that version of "Loneliness" is that it's only ~13 minutes long.
They said that they have done it all 4 seasons and hopefully hopefully Winter (Loneliness) will be soon uploaded.. But for now please come on and bring us the Autumn (Eternal Darkness)😁💯❤
Thank you for this reaction. Bands like Wintersun and Jinjer have opened my mind to these types of vocals. Before if I heard growling or screams I would just turn if off but now after listening to reactions from vocal coaches and them stating how hard it is to do this and especially switch back and forward form clean to distorted I have found a new appreciation for how well trained these vocalist are. 2 years ago I would never have spent money on a band like Wintersun but now I have three of their albums and love each of them.
If you enjoy a mix of clean vocals and growls, I would also recommend checking out Amorphis (if you haven't already). Their singer, Tomi Joutsen, combines great, powerful cleans with some of the most crisp, amazing growls in today's metal scene.
well i consider myself pretty open minded when it comes to music and some of this is nice the melodies and chorus but the speed metal guitar and screaming destroys the mood and feel of what could have been a great piece. I am a huge Nightwish fan and i gave Wintersun a listen since they now have this bass player and drummer. Kai is a great fit. Not as passionate as Jukka on skins and time will tell about Jukka on base Hes got some massive shoes to fill I got to go this screaming is killing me
Wintersun "Loneliness" pleaseee! "Time" is an amazing song, i like it even more then "Sons of winter and stars". "Loneliness" is my favorite because it's a very emotional song. Thank you guys, love from Portugal.
It's wonderful isn't it? Jari's voice brings lots of emotion, I love it. Next time you may react to Land of Snow and Sorrow from the same session. For extra tears I suggest Loneliness from theirThe Forest Seasons album. This song is Jaris top vocal rendition iin a emotional way, it's also about his father's passing.
Ok. Joskus kun meikäläisestä aika jättää, niin tämä biisi soi kun mullat lyödään päälle. Piste. When it`s my time to leave this life, this song will playing in my funeral. That`s all.....
"How does someone in the same session sound better on different songs?" Well, I'm guessing here, but you gotta know that Jari is missing a chunk of his lung that had to be surgically removed due to tuberculosis, which probably affects his stamina in one way or another.The fact that he still sounds THAT GOOD with parts of his lung missing boggles my mind.
well... I think it has more to do with his vocal technique. Not his screams, they are perfect, but his singing. He is putting a lot of strain on his voice when he sings. But that isn't really negative per say, it gives him the sound and emotion that makes his voice his. Although, it's not technically how you would take care of your voice. It gets tired a lot more easily than say someone who is classically trained. You can tell he gives it his all when he sings :)
11/10 like Wolf said. Epic fucking masterpiece! Imagine if Tuomas Holopainen, Jari Mäenpää and Tuomas Saukkonen (Wolfheart, Before the Dawn etc.) would compose some heavy metal together!!!
Imagine someone thinking in 2020 that Jari would ever work with other people who have vision or would let anyone other than him have control over any part of the production process. 😅
@@Mulukkis To a degree, yeah, but Marko has written for Nightwish albums, and there are other people involved in orchestrations, sound engineering, mixing, and so on. Jari wants to handle basically everything himself.
Sons of Winter and Stars is really different because lyrics are about dimensions and universe and Time is about time and how it operates in more personal level... this song is also really emotional cause we all are prisoners of time.
-65 Jari here, heh. Jari was a popular male name here in Finland during the 60's and to the 70's too. Not so much after that. Great reaction! I like your commitment to research and background of the band/performer in state of just cold reaction. Guess some like just cold reaction, without any research.
This track.... Sigh. I had so many moments I closed my eyes and forgot I was watching a reaction. lol. It's so intense and I feel every second of it. Like something presses on your heart, but in a strangely pleasant way. That's the best way I can explain the feeling it gives me.
lol you guys crack me up!! the best.. This band is new to me, I probably have been under a rock (pun intended) I am really diggin them and everybody should sign up on the Patreon it's worth it!
now this is awesome. i like this song even more than sons and stars coz melody. of course song that jari make when him father die loneliness(lyric) is of course they best song and maybe whole world :) thanx to this one and have great day there both.
When lovely people like you react to a lovely band like Wintersun: ❤❤. Thank you, my day just got a whole lot better. Can't wait for your future post of the Loneliness reaction, though I know tears will have been shed in that one.
Regarding the different vocal quality, Sons of Winter and Stars was the LAST song recorded during that live rehearsal, and they went over a fair few songs. Likely it was a slight case of fatigue due to how incredibly intense these songs are.
Awesome song, awesome reaction! Hopefully some day you'll review song by song of the whole self-titled (Wintersun) album, that whole album is such a masterpiece!
Welcome to the Wintersuniverse, where all of us happy metalheads waiting and longing for Time II, while appreciate the former Albums with love and Joy :)
its interesting when you see a couple like this, it does remind you that when the amazing guitarist frank marino said that heavy metal fans are the most genuinely nice crowds to be around, these two guys are soe sort of innocently decent, cheers
Girl listens with every part of her entire being. Best part. Time 1 by a slim margin is my favorite album so love these. Also, do we ever get a reaction to Land of Snow and Sorrow? Or the Death and the Healing?
I would say it was the song, as "Sons of Winter and Stars" has more vocal changes. In this the singing is more confined - thus perheps easier to analyse? An excellent reaction anyway!
I think what makes Jari´s vocals so "different" (maybe not better but comming with a totally different tone) and, how to put it... touching? - in this song is the amount of pain, dispair but also defiance which comes with them. He is very good in setting the tone of the song with his vocals, which even without knowing the lyrics are able to bring across the emotion within. - Differently to Songs of Winter and Stars this song lyric-wise is of a "darker" tone - about Time (obviously), how it takes your life bit by bit relentlessly without looking back and no matter how hard you try to fight you´ll loose this battle eventually.
Wintersun, man. I know them from way back when they released their debut (my sister bought me the album as a birthday gift because she saw the cover and figured I'd like the music 😅) but every time I listen to them I get reminded of what an insane band they are. Jari as a composer and musician is next level. Devin esque. Every note perfected. Can't wait for your reaction to Loneliness (Winter). It's dark and sad enough as it is, but when you know the backstory it's just.. yeah. He lost his father in the autumn so Loneliness pretty much covers his feeling of sadness in the season that came after. And when you know how cold and dark the winters of Scandinavia are then...yeah. It's easy to imagine. Also, he lost 1/4 of his lung due to him contracting tuberculosis and needing surgery when he served in the finnish military as part of his national defense duty when he was younger btw. Makes his vocals that more impressive.
A long time ago I've suggested Loneliness by Wintersun, and now you got more and more for the same song. I am just curious when will you both feel and live through the one of the most emotional and epic songs that I've ever listened to.
One of the best songs ever written, in my book. Everything is perfect, shame it has an ending. Can't get enough, now time to be blown away with "Loneliness", Jari's vocal masterpiece. Great reaction!
Hey Sistah and Wolf I salute you ALL the way from Brazil, with ALL my respect I beg you to introduce Sistah to one of cornerstones of Doom Metal, Candlemass the Song is Bearer of pain ,or Darkness in Paradise, please you Will make a Brazilian fan and Metalhead really happy !!!
I always am amused, I love Sons or Winter and Stars, and everyone reacts to that live session. But this song is the better one in my opinion, it is this that made me a Wintersun fan, this song and its performance is flat out bloody amazing.
Can't wait for Time II to come out and Jesus. There's some stuff that clearly surpasses this stuff or basically anything on the planet. The song "The Way of the Fire" is simply from another universe. They've performed it live many times and it's just perfection in all ways. However, in the mean time, if you want more Wintersun greatness, check out Eternal Darkness (Winter), it's pure epic black metal bliss
Hi everyone, just a heads up we have actually reacted to the whole 4 seasons and they are currently on our Patreon waiting to be edited. You can go see the raw versions there now if you like, or wait till they come to TH-cam once I get a chance to edit them. Keep it Metal ✊🤘
OMG I can't even wait for it!
Greetings from Brazil!
You're both amazing.
Autumn and winter are the best songs on seasons. Keep up the good work.
Cant wait :)
Winter is crazy..
@@SilverheartFia every season is "loco"
Loneliness will make WOLF cry elephant tears. 12/10.
But the acoustic version
@@NegativeS2Games No.
That last "oh please don't leave me now" gets me every time. And Kais empty stare in the end, priceless 😄😍 This is The Song for me.
That hit WOLF right in his soul!
The chorus is pure eargasm! Jari Mäenpää truly is Mozart of our time.
Tuomas is the Mozart, Jari is like the epic guitar mozart haha :D
Yes, Tuomas and Jari are like Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo 😆 its another level
Ugh I love this song so fvcking much.
LONELINESS!!!
I agree with you. Amazing ❤
Greetings from Sweden🤘💛💙
If you want to hear Jari's best clean vocals you have to react to Wintersun - Loneliness
For the clean, totally agree!
I agree with you.❤
Greetings from Sweden 🤘💛💙
So good

LONELINESS! LONELINESS! LONELINESS! Loneliness by Wintersun is so gooooood
Yes Yes Yes. 🤘👍👏 I agree with you. So damn amazing❤
Greetings from Sweden 🤘💛💙
They play what they want to play. Not for radio . That’s y they are so good.
Loneliness official lyrics video, Jaris clean vocals is next level! Greetings from Finland
Yes I agree with you. Respect and love for this amazing band and The singer Jari👍 So damn good🤘👏

Thank you so much for this reaction. I love this band, you are the best
What a fucking amazing band to see live.
Coming over you like a steam train. Blessed we are who are able to watch and feel this piece of "art" :-)
First, Wintersun is so awesome ! Year thank you so much for reacting this one.
Wintersun "Loneliness" pleaseee!
"Time" is an amazing song, i like it even more then "Sons of winter and stars".
"Loneliness" is my favorite because it's a very emotional song.
Thank you guys, love from Portugal.
I agree with you. Jaris voice are stunning and with lot of emotions in this song❤ 👍🤘👏
Greetings from Sweden 💛💙
Finally a full song eargasm for the both of you :)
Greetings from Finland.
What Kai performed there was one of the best drumming performances I've ever seen.
I'm so happy for you guys! Welcome to Jari fanboy world. Thanks for releasing this reaction guys.
Metal is art, and Wintersun is pretty damn good doing it. 😄 Really great reaction!
Blessing from north :) Waited this like no tomorrow! I assume that u 2 want more.. there is more to check! \m/
Wintersun = Goosebumps each time! An epic journey...
It's wonderful isn't it? Jari's voice brings lots of emotion, I love it. Next time you may react to Land of Snow and Sorrow from the same session.

I love her. She enjoys it soooo much. She listens with her soul which is how it's supposed to be.
Finland is the metal capital.
LONELINESS . A must
Wonderful reaction to an awesome, unbelievable song.
I love both your reactions - you make me smile. And your enthusiasm - I feel it. This song is extraordinary isn't it! Thanks for this one.

@@tuomaspuumalainen3018 ok, let's imagine that in 2021 then, sorry!
Great reaction again guys! Next check the Loneliness and the rest from the Forest Seasons.
Wintersun is so underrated it actually makes me mad.
yes i agree
There is one more to go! Land of snow and sorrow from the same session
Fuck i love people who appreciate the same awesome music like i do
Thanks again😊 This is my favorite Wintersun song👍😊 If you get a proposal then another Finnish band.
Lost Sociaty feat Apocalyptica. Into Eternity
i love you guys!! greetings and much love from central Mexico city!!
Greetings! 🤗 Thank you for your love ♥️
Sons of Winter and Stars is really different because lyrics are about dimensions and universe and Time is about time and how it operates in more personal level... this song is also really emotional cause we all are prisoners of time.
👍❤
It took me awhile for this song to grow on me, but 'm liking it more each time. You just need to be relaxed and have good headphones on.
Please do Loneliness and The Land of Snow and Sorrow
Yes Yes yes. I agree with you.👍🤘👏
Greetings from Sweden 🤘💛💙
Nicely done. So much music knowledge you have.your wife is on the right track. Bless her cotton socks
Everyone always suggests Sons of Winter and Stars but imo Time is an incomparable masterpiece
best thing ive seen on your channel yet for sure, and i love how you really appreciate the music the way it should be listened to
Death and the Healing is great, my other favorite with Time from Wintersun! Recommend you to listen that one too.

Great video. Peace

You gotta listen to his vocals in LONELINESS so much emotion cause it was written after the passing of his father
