Dominic Buitenhuis I had a feeling that was going to be said when I noticed there was a comment on it, haha! I regret to inform you that I decline your offer XD
I walk on cold cloudy days, by streets full of indifferent people, listening to this. I get a feeling I just can't describe. Thank you Tony, your music speaks to the cosmos and to my soul.
I was listening to this song from my ear plugs in a plane in snow storm when it landed to Helsinki airport. In same plane there was Tony Kakko and he gave me a look in turbulence.. Epic!
I remember the day this single was released, I picked it up on my way to work (a summer job cutting lawn, 16yrs old). Then I was kicking it with my old school portable cd-player while riding a lawnmower :D
Hasta ahora no he encontrado alguna canción de Sonata Arctica que no me gustara, todas las he amado, lo cual es raro ya que de los cantantes de música por lo menos siempre hay 1 canción que no me gusta. Mis respetos para esta banda! Sus canciones siempre llenas de sentimientos! (y)
Siempre fui más thrasher y mis amigos escuchaban sonata ártica y un día esta canción me gustó y desde ese día es mi favorita y por ella aprendí a escuchar este grupo bebíamos y jodiamos en la calle ya de eso han pasado años ya todos estamos regados por el mundo casados etc etc solo recuerdos... quiero volver al pasado solo por un rato
***** All that makes sense and everything, perhaps more than mine theory, but i want to share: Isnt it just about life of man? Perhaps about his experiences? He is not sure what kind of girl he likes, therefore he tryes every girl he gets close to, "Seven lifes of a men passed before me. Seven lives, one for every love I had. ", every "life" is the time he was with her, happy but only one relationship made sense to him, "Only One made me see why they cry". "I was raised from a broken seed." could be reason he cant get to like any kind of woman in particular, because maybe something happened in his childhood? Now that i think about it yours could be more close to the truth.
OMG WOOOW!!!!!!!!!! Tony's Genius Voice Amaaaazing Lyrics Phenomenal Super Song Everything just A MASTERPIECE I LOOOOOVE IT BEST SONATA ARCTICA ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Llevo AÑOS viendo este mismo video, cerca de 10 años. Por favor que jamás desaparezca, esta canción la tengo asociada a este video, muchos recuerdos y agua bajo el puente.
+haseothepkker can you see my blood when im bleeding? I found this band as a joke and these "lyrics" are absolutely TERRIBLE. There is almost 0 rhythm to this song and it repeats shit odd amounts of time.
Joe Kickass "Morning dew on the field, where i met you" "seven lives of a man, passed before me. Seven graves, one for every love I've had." You purposely choose literally the worst line while ignoring the rest of the gems. everything else you said is plain opinion, and holds no intrinsic value.
Burning feathers, not an Angel, Heaven´s closed, Hell´s sold out So I walk on the Earth, behind the curtains, hidden from everyone, Until I find a new life to ruin again…
Oi, oi. Miksi tämä on niin hyvä?! Se on hauskaa, miten kun kuulin tämänkin kappaleen ensimmäistä kertaa, en ymmärtänyt mikä tästä teki niin erityisen (sen ihmisen korvissa, kuka tämän minulle soitti) - nyt en saa tästä tarpeekseni. Kuuntelen tämän vähintään kerran päivässä, enkä kyllästy ikinä (: Lisäksi tämä muistuttaa minua eräästä minulle tärkeästä ihmisestä ~ Once again hope I died for the last time.
I'm writing a Webcomic, and this song sums up my villain's backstory perfectly. I play it whenever I'm writing heavy scenes with him in it. If the comic ever becomes popular, remember this comment lol.
I am also a writer and this song also perfectly fits on my character. He’s not a villain, he’s just... broken and lost. But he wants to be a better person.
...I've been listening to them since 2006 or so, how can it be that I discovered this song only 5 minutes and 16 seconds ago?! I've heard this only once now and I'm already in love with it *.*
"still"... I wouldn't say if they were around for like 40 years or so... but so every metalhead has heard about them once in their life and I mean, SA are just epic, once you start listening to them, you won't stop.
some poeple get tooooooooooooo excited to hear this song then instead of clicking LIKE they fail and click Dislike . thouse arent actually DISLIKES. :D:D when my pain is my pain and yours is too. period.
I would go with him on this one, there's nothing unnatural, it is a man who has simply suffered. If you base your theory on the fact that he says "seven graves, one for every love i had" I believe this doesn't actually mean graves, but rather a symbol for his lost/dead love for those people
forgot how depressed this song get's me ......then i forgot about the true reason i will forever love this song ......just wish my ex loved this band so i could bear my heart to her just for once ....but she don't like metal ....so how is she gonna undertand how much i love her ,damn this song is too close to my past it hurt's , is there ne one who can understand ????? feel so alone at the moment ... stunning song ...sonata rock's ..this is a classic
Pretty good band. Heard their cover of Die With Your Boots On and decided they deserved a look. To me it sounds like Journey and Dio combined. Who knows, maybe I'll become a true fan soon, but until then, they are definitely a band of interest for me. UP THE IRONS FOR SONATA ARTICA!!! \M/ \M/
Coming back I might have a potential meaning for this song.. it can be metaphoric for being broken with the sea, as in, the sea levels are rising, so we are becoming upset and/or uncomfortable with the idea... take this for example: “bless this night with a tear, for I have none I fear” . it may very well be a reference to global warming/rising sea levels/weather changes. he is telling the sky/earth to rain, (and consequently further increase the sea levels) and he is trying to sound brave, but the whispery way he says “fear” at the end really is a giveaway that he is hesitant, and so, scared of the aftermath of all mankind’s missdoings.
Does anyone knows what this song talks about? I have some theories: maybe they're talking about a man (Tony Kakko himself in a moment of his life), maybe they're talking about a fallen angel that fell in love with a woman (who knows?), or maybe they're talking about a fictional person. That's all that I can think. Anyway it's my favourite song of all times ever! It brings so many memories of my teenage years...
Alot of people are complaining that the lyrics sound random but- they work, even if they didn't the melody is beautifully epic, and it sounds to me that a girl wanted to marry him and he was against being tied down.
I have no idea if it's their actual meaning, but to me it sounds like he's had seven different loves, which felt like seven lifes to him, each love bringing him to life. But eventually the love (and thus the life) died, hence the graves. Again I have no idea if it's correct, but it's my interpretation^^
One of the most beautiful songs of Sonata!
"DO YOU REALLY KNOW ME?!"
(deeper voice) "I might be a God"
Pure perfectness.
I'd forgotten this song for many years, but two days ago I had a dream that sounded this song.... and now here I am, listening it :)_______
QQ
It's kind of magical when you rediscovers songs that way. I recently did that with "Journey to the Spirit World" by Darkseed.
If I ever have children, I'm definitely bringing them up on Sonata Arctica. They're one of my all-time favourite bands.
well i can help you with making kids :P

xXallegedangelXx Poor guy..
The Lone Wanderer.
I would agree if I had actually known the guy.
He's a young man, unlucky in love and shy around girls.
I walk on cold cloudy days, by streets full of indifferent people, listening to this. I get a feeling I just can't describe. Thank you Tony, your music speaks to the cosmos and to my soul.

My dreams IS to know Helsinki, Espoo and Turku 💰😎
Greetings frio Brazil
I'm on a Sonata binge after couple of years' pause. Didn't remember how great lyrics they have on their first albums.
Lol same. Suddenly started listening to their songs again and remembered they were better than all the crap I listen to nowadays
"So I walk on earth, behind the curtains, hidden from everyone,
until I find a NEW LIFE TO RUIN AGAIN"... :(
I know Broken isn't related to the Stalker saga, but this phrase is totally something Caleb would say.
Brings up some good memories *.* those were the best days of my life !
I remember the day this single was released, I picked it up on my way to work (a summer job cutting lawn, 16yrs old). Then I was kicking it with my old school portable cd-player while riding a lawnmower :D
Sounds like a great memory!
"So I walk on the earth, behind the curtains, hidden from everyone, until I find a new life to ruin again". I can so much relate on this sentence....
Hasta ahora no he encontrado alguna canción de Sonata Arctica que no me gustara, todas las he amado, lo cual es raro ya que de los cantantes de música por lo menos siempre hay 1 canción que no me gusta. Mis respetos para esta banda! Sus canciones siempre llenas de sentimientos! (y)
Exacto
Siempre fui más thrasher y mis amigos escuchaban sonata ártica y un día esta canción me gustó y desde ese día es mi favorita y por ella aprendí a escuchar este grupo bebíamos y jodiamos en la calle ya de eso han pasado años ya todos estamos regados por el mundo casados etc etc solo recuerdos... quiero volver al pasado solo por un rato
Me sucede igual, pero esta banda me fascinó, especialmente sus 4 primeros discos. Y no soy muy de este género pero ellos son especiales.
I'll listen to Sonata Arctica till the end of my days :)
One of the songs that made me fall in love with Sonata. Unique love and deep respect.
The lyrics are so not precised that it can be associate to anyone's specific events of life. I think that is the beauty of this song and lyrics!
***** All that makes sense and everything, perhaps more than mine theory, but i want to share: Isnt it just about life of man? Perhaps about his experiences? He is not sure what kind of girl he likes, therefore he tryes every girl he gets close to, "Seven lifes of a men passed before me. Seven lives, one for every love I had. ", every "life" is the time he was with her, happy
but only one relationship made sense to him, "Only One made me see why they cry". "I was raised from a broken seed." could be reason he cant get to like any kind of woman in particular, because maybe something happened in his childhood?
Now that i think about it yours could be more close to the truth.
I love when he says "garden of oblivion"
My favourite song from this group. When I was younger I loved this group.
OMG WOOOW!!!!!!!!!!
Tony's Genius Voice

AWESOME SONG, GREAT LYRICS. LOVE IT !

Im in love with this song...Sooo good
I love this one...every song I know by them speaks to me on some deeper level...
...I've been listening to them since 2006 or so, how can it be that I discovered this song only 5 minutes and 16 seconds ago?! I've heard this only once now and I'm already in love with it *.*
Dude, i'll listen to sonata arctica whole my life
"still"... I wouldn't say if they were around for like 40 years or so... but so every metalhead has heard about them once in their life and I mean, SA are just epic, once you start listening to them, you won't stop.
This song is far better than any other by them. Especially they recent songs.
Yeeah I'm listening sonata in 1900!!! and I will forever love them
One of my very favorite of Sonata Arctica ... amazing and well done lyrics!
@Girafazzul
It's like poetry. It makes sense if you try to make sense out of it and no one is going to interpret it the same way.
indeed, really good songs. one of our nice finnish bands that brings bk memories :)
I love this song so much!
They did in best way. I worship their literatical masterpieces
I LOVE this song!! Can't seem to find this on iTunes and some of the other streaming services.
Sonata Arctica is by far the greatest power metal band ever. EVER. I mean i don't understand how you can hate this.
Love this so much
Magic Song.
oh mio dio adoro sta canzone!mi fa uscire di testaaaaa >.
My secound Song from them, love IT till now 😍
This song written by soul.
amazing song O_o !
Someone else still hearing this on late 2019???
Luis Morales is not in Spotify so I come here !
Indeed.
So is narrator demon, or devil?
2020 my friend
Dead love, obssesion, a child, seven traumatized exes, this song might as well be a serie
When someone doesn't like something, they say that they don't like it, not that it's bad. :)
When I heard this song for the first time was like "wow I really love this band"
EPIC!!!
the best 😍
I'm still listening sonata arctica! :)
17 and listening them for 3 years now!
My favorite Sonata Arctica's slow song. It has very interesting and disturbing lyrics.
some poeple get tooooooooooooo excited to hear this song then instead of clicking LIKE they fail and click Dislike . thouse arent actually DISLIKES. :D:D
when my pain is my pain and yours is too. period.
This is my fv song of all times... :)
"Do you even know me? I might be a god" XDD lol I'm soooo using that at one point.
I would go with him on this one, there's nothing unnatural, it is a man who has simply suffered. If you base your theory on the fact that he says "seven graves, one for every love i had" I believe this doesn't actually mean graves, but rather a symbol for his lost/dead love for those people
Awesome
Perfect ♥
Still? I can't seem to stop and I'll see them live!
forgot how depressed this song get's me ......then i forgot about the true reason i will forever love this song ......just wish my ex loved this band so i could bear my heart to her just for once ....but she don't like metal ....so how is she gonna undertand how much i love her ,damn this song is too close to my past it hurt's , is there ne one who can understand ????? feel so alone at the moment ...
stunning song ...sonata rock's ..this is a classic
gracias ya no había letras
@FoxOnTheRun
Many thanks! Greets from germany!
love the "nananana" parts ♥
They band have said many times that they aren't power metal, they play melodic metal / rock music
just lovely songs and does actually say alot.
that verse is really something
i mean.. damn, both the lyrics and the music
Yeah it works really well I think too, makes the song stand out for me
This is so beautifull Song. One big mememories
NA NA NA NANA!!!!!!!!
Amazing story that lies in this song if you use your fantasy :)
My heart is broken
Yeaaah Just Like GUNS N ROSES They're Perfect even if they don't sing power metal ... And Also KAMELOT
Pretty good band. Heard their cover of Die With Your Boots On and decided they deserved a look. To me it sounds like Journey and Dio combined. Who knows, maybe I'll become a true fan soon, but until then, they are definitely a band of interest for me. UP THE IRONS FOR SONATA ARTICA!!! \M/ \M/
i love this band man like damn
Coming back I might have a potential meaning for this song.. it can be metaphoric for being broken with the sea, as in, the sea levels are rising, so we are becoming upset and/or uncomfortable with the idea... take this for example: “bless this night with a tear, for I have none I fear” . it may very well be a reference to global warming/rising sea levels/weather changes. he is telling the sky/earth to rain, (and consequently further increase the sea levels) and he is trying to sound brave, but the whispery way he says “fear” at the end really is a giveaway that he is hesitant, and so, scared of the aftermath of all mankind’s missdoings.
Nothing changes a man more than being always broken , it makes a heartless thing out of him , as i am right now ...
@Larry Wright
Many thanks vor that!
I really love this song!!!
+1 if you agree!
Thumbs up if u still listen to Sonata Arctica in 2013!!
I very like this song
Does anyone knows what this song talks about? I have some theories: maybe they're talking about a man (Tony Kakko himself in a moment of his life), maybe they're talking about a fallen angel that fell in love with a woman (who knows?), or maybe they're talking about a fictional person. That's all that I can think. Anyway it's my favourite song of all times ever! It brings so many memories of my teenage years...
maybe not a fallen angel but a fallen god, I have a theory but Ill keep it for myself.
btw this song i forever will c in a positive light for god's sake ....sorry for all who thought of it in as a negative .....awesome song ..........
My pain is my pain and yours is too
love it
I love this song.
song for me :(
wouw desde el minutho 4:22 hasta el minutho 4:38 es una emocion inexplikable
Alot of people are complaining that the lyrics sound random but- they work, even if they didn't the melody is beautifully epic, and it sounds to me that a girl wanted to marry him and he was against being tied down.
so much chills.. this song is like my life xD
Sonata Arctica ♥
I have no idea if it's their actual meaning, but to me it sounds like he's had seven different loves, which felt like seven lifes to him, each love bringing him to life. But eventually the love (and thus the life) died, hence the graves.
Again I have no idea if it's correct, but it's my interpretation^^
awesome
Thumb up if u listening sonata in 1900!!
The supernatural thing is called a man who is inlove !

I'm pretty sure he says "on this darkwinter's night"... Or are my ears turning into porridge?
***** It's not just you :) I hear darkwinter too.
+LouD It does say it. "On this darkwinter's night...".
It's deadwinter's, learn how to listen properly.
