Thank you mom for introducing me these two bands, especially Sonata Arctica!! :D
This song proves how great these guys are at writing music. This song goes through 4 different keys. Starts in C# minor then B minor then C Minor in the bridge leading to the solo back to C# Minor at the solo then ends the song in Eb Minor in the 2nd half of the last chorus. Incredible.
I used to listen to this sooo much alot has happened to me over the years and I'm not the same person anymore but this song still hits my heart like a thousand spears!!
I was there at the legendary Nightwish End of an Era -concert back in the day. And Sonata was warming up the stage and it was truly the best warm up show ever. What a night.
This was actually the first song I heard of Sonata and thought it was great. Boy, imagine when I found their older stuff. I felt like I had struck gold.
LYRICS: You gave me the chance, time and again, in vain Now my feelings for you, every tear, every smile, paid in full Break the chain, but no longer can I take the pain It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak So I can only blame myself for this state we are in I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late Did you change? I did too Love can grow from the last grain It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited, hated, blamed it all on You I need you less and less Every day feeds this moral decay Yet I have grown to love you even more I fall back, and I turn another cheek You mouth the words you're not ready to speak You're scared of me now; no I never had a clue That I'd become so much stronger than you I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late If you like, I will leave; I will not miss the last train again It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you It's hard for me to love your face right now I'm waiting, hating, needing being Me I need you less and less Every day leads us farther away From that moment It's hard for me to hate myself right now Finally I'm understanding me One day we may have whole new's me and you's But first I need to learn to love me too

@@bilbobaggins9451 yeah they are great, i think it's better when a band tries new things rather than recycling what they've done again and again or copying other bands. they took risks with Unia which sounded very different back then but it turns out to be one of the best albums, something no other band can do nor copy from them
all of the albums were special and perfect in their own way for example i love pariah's child but i also saw a lot of haters of that album and for me reckoning night was the best album by far.
Have you ever gotten out of a genre and then remembered a particular band and looked it up and gone "ah, goddamn this is still awesome"? That's what I'm doing right now.
The emotions of heartache and dispair in a torn relationship with clingy significant other who does not respect one another in a relationship!!! Respect each other feelings and emotional boundaries, with so much self doubt about ones own feelings!!!! The love/hate emotional rollercoaster of torrid relationship is really the message I get from this song!!!!
Recuerdo cuando nevó en Buenos Aires 9 de julio 2007..... jajajaj ,ese piano ,premonitorio ,seria la banda de sonido de mi humilde barrio mientras caía la nieve......
It's 2020. If you are reading this, you too were one of the ones fate deemed worthy of experiencing a small piece of timeless magic. Words can't describe how influential this band was for me with this one song alone.
Помню впервые услышал эту песню в 11-12 лет, сейчас мне 30. Зима, мы с моим корешом Лехой делаем вид, что так же снимаемся в клипе как тут, зимой на улице в Москве, в спальном районе, включили песню на мобильном, трясли головой, смеялись и были счастливы, вся жизнь впереди. Сейчас уже Лехи нет рядом и не известно, что с ним, я переехал, уже не живу где в детстве, уже хорошая работа, жена, дети. Но сегодня я вспомнил об этой песне и стало так тепло на душе этой холодной осенью. Привет тебе дорогой Леха, надеюсь у тебя все хорошо. Соната наверное навсегда в сердце. Спасибо)
Ive been following Sonata Arctica for years now, it was the very first band i fell in love with, long ago and I still cant stop listening ! Hail to those guys !
Nunca pensé que esta música podía ser mejor, pero luego de escucharla en vivo a 20 m de mi, fue algo increible imposible de explicar, sonata realmente causa la impresión energía y con sus canciones lentas como tahulla quieres llorar. como un grupo puede conseguir todo eso? sonata arctica único en su clase. Paraguay te espera de vuelta! Igual que toda latinoamerica!
I've been listening to this band for almost 20 year's. They never cease to amaze, me and to see them getting MILLIONS of views. It brings me great joy to see them getting the recognition they deserve. Yet they still deserve more 🤘

... my heart is breaking. i saw sonata arctica last friday and it was AMAZING!!! really, i'm crying, because i want go back there and enjoy once again..!
Sang this last time I went to my favourite karaoke bar. Tony Kakko was one of my favourite singers when I was a teenager. Might make a video of me singing this song on my channel.
Jani Liimatainen Forever! Jani fans, look up his blog. He is making a second Cain's Offering album! Please make sure all Jani fans know of this! Love and Peace!!!
Bands change their sound over time..it happens ;) we just support them in whatever path they may take.. \m/ We love Sonata!
good choice cause no matter what some haters say, they make a unique music!
Lots of respect from Malaysia.
No matter what , we will support them.
Fuck yeah!
We love Sonata Arctica! ❤
Who else is here enjoying and from which country ?

Since 99....love them. Got my first speeding ticket to this song. Name is ironically befitting.

You should see Sonata Arctica live. I saw them this year and they are the absolute best band I've ever seen.
Twelve years ago this video and song got me into Sonata Arctica.
Still come back every now and then to remind myself of how much I still love it.
Oh hey I'm back again.
Que lujo es vivir en 2023 y seguir disfrutando esta joya
This song proves how great these guys are at writing music. This song goes through 4 different keys. Starts in C# minor then B minor then C Minor in the bridge leading to the solo back to C# Minor at the solo then ends the song in Eb Minor in the 2nd half of the last chorus. Incredible.
Dude that's cool! I'll have to download the music and take a look at it. I love music theory.
Well said. Also go Hawks!

I was there at the legendary Nightwish End of an Era -concert back in the day. And Sonata was warming up the stage and it was truly the best warm up show ever. What a night.
Finland have such a great bands.
Esther Daugther of smoke and bone finland HAS gread bands
fataxel have and has is the same
fataxel Ok, so... Finland HAS G R E A T* bands.
Esther Daugther of smoke and bone That's right, sweetie! it really has great bands ( "d" was in the way, sorry bout that :))
jose carballo nope. "have" is for plural, and "has" is for singular. So "they have" and "he has" :)
Esta canción es simplemente hermosa, demasiado bella.
Sonata Arctica muy buena banda*--*
Es saaad :c pero si, es wenisima
Still listening 2016!! :) In 2007 I was 17 years old and this was my favorite song..
Woow, nine years..
the same here
And well i was 10 years old xD
i was 12 hahahaha close tho XD love this song!
Me in 2017lol
Such magical music
This was actually the first song I heard of Sonata and thought it was great. Boy, imagine when I found their older stuff. I felt like I had struck gold.
LYRICS:
You gave me the chance, time and again, in vain
Now my feelings for you, every tear, every smile, paid in full
Break the chain, but no longer can I take the pain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So I can only blame myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late
Did you change? I did too
Love can grow from the last grain
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on
You
I need you less and less
Every day feeds this moral decay
Yet I have grown to love you even more
I fall back, and I turn another cheek
You mouth the words you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me now; no I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you
I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late
If you like, I will leave; I will not miss the last train again
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you
It's hard for me to love your face right now
I'm waiting, hating, needing being
Me
I need you less and less
Every day leads us farther away
From that moment
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I'm understanding me
One day we may have whole new's me and you's
But first I need to learn to love me too
Faivel Oliveira thank you.

Que saudade! eu tinha 15 anos quando esse clipe foi lançado, muita nostalgia ouvi-la novamente, época boa do Sonata Arctica. 😆
Tinha 16, o mundo já não é mais o mesmo, que saudade...
Those bends during the keys solo are the audio embodiment of emotion.
IT'S HARD FOR ME TO STOP LISTENING THIS SONG RIGHT NOW!!!!
In 2023 it's hard for me to stop listening to this song!
Have you ever gotten out of a genre and then remembered a particular band and looked it up and gone "ah, goddamn this is still awesome"? That's what I'm doing right now.
it took me 8 years to fully understand this song, it's a masterpiece believe me, a real masterpiece :"(
took me 8 years to understand what the band was called because of the weird lettering
Dudu, 12 years for me. You must be smarter than me :D :D
I love fans of this band.
Same here, the music is about, self love, sekf respect, not love or romance.
It took me 10 years, to undestanding them.
Hello from Turkey
I love this song very much and i think all finland bands are great in my opinion and Sonata Arctica one of them
Golden age of Sonata Arctica in my opinion. I listem only the older songs.
The emotions of heartache and dispair in a torn relationship with clingy significant other who does not respect one another in a relationship!!! Respect each other feelings and emotional boundaries, with so much self doubt about ones own feelings!!!! The love/hate emotional rollercoaster of torrid relationship is really the message I get from this song!!!!
Calm down man with the exclamation points lol
Recuerdo cuando nevó en Buenos Aires 9 de julio 2007..... jajajaj ,ese piano ,premonitorio ,seria la banda de sonido de mi humilde barrio mientras caía la nieve......
No puedo creer que hayan pasado 14 años desde la primera vez que escuche esta canción uu
Bons tempos, quase em 2024 e apreciando essa obra de arte
I heard this when it came out in 2007. I was young. Now I’m old. It’s still powerful. More so now
It's 2020. If you are reading this, you too were one of the ones fate deemed worthy of experiencing a small piece of timeless magic.

Incredibly influential
The raw emotion in this song is basically unmatched by anything.
I loved em before this came out, but yeah. This was pretty huge.
If i listen to this when i die, i will definetly go to Valhala!!!

As a finnish I can be proud of our music ^^
Damn his voice is beautiful, along with the music, this is was the first song I listened to today on my 18th birthday :D
that keytar solo,,,
love it :3
This song stirs my feelings.
Good. It's that what Sonata should do. ;)
I was nowhere near ready when all it ended
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you
You gave me the chance, time and again in vain
Now my feelings for you
Every tear, every smile, paid in full
Wrecked the chain, but no longer can I take the pain
[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So I can only blame myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, it's not too late
Did you change? I did too
Love can grow from the last grain
[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
I need you less and less
Every day feeds this moral decay
Yet I've grown to love you even more
My fault that you then turned another cheek
You mouth the words, you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me, although I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you
[Solo]
I will take what you have for me now if it's not too late
If you like I will leave, I will not miss the last train again
[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I waited, hated, blamed it all on you
It's hard for me to love your face right now
I'm waiting, hating, needing, being me
I need you less and less
And every day leads us farther away
From that moment
[Chorus]
It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I'm understanding me
One day we may have whole new me's and you's
But first I need to learn to love me too
Rainmaker Girdeux thanks :)
you are the best... thank you.

Sang this last time I went to my favourite karaoke bar. Tony Kakko was one of my favourite singers when I was a teenager.
Might make a video of me singing this song on my channel.
Hehe, this was THE song for my heartbroken teen self :D ahhh, the edge.

Thx for that, but we don't tell our artists how they should sound.
...ask them
banda muito top.
I miss how crunchy and hard the guitars sounded back in the Unia days and before. Since TDoG, guitars have passed into a 2nd term :/
2:03 that just go wild MAN💀
Really Nuclear Blast? 240p?
*****
They can reupload a 1080p version whenever they want... It seems they don't care about the band or about us!
JC Maelstrom or they are just lazy bastards
JC Maelstrom But it will lose the 11 million views.
Does that matter that much? It would probably get more views in better resolution.
its a relic of the times...
Finnish bands and people be like "keeping distance since 2007".
Me everytime i listen to this song 3:21
Always thought this song had nothing else important than that "it's hard for me to love myself right now" but damn this has so much more!!!
The video is so Finnish I love it
Damn, 14 years and the video is still at 240p xD
Jani Liimatainen Forever! Jani fans, look up his blog. He is making a second Cain's Offering album! Please make sure all Jani fans know of this! Love and Peace!!!
