Black Diamond (demo version) Tonight I try to find out in secrecy I see, I feel what will be my destiny I feel the blood in my veins I cannot stop it I've just got to let it run Alright, I'll fight for what I have to inherit To stay alive and so close to be buried Under the dust I've never settled down And a windy day to choke me until I'm dead I will keep in mind what I have seen and learned Then I might avoid my dreams turn into A Black Diamond
Lyrics sound generic, but in the final version they're about materialism and temptation. Which is something very related to 100% people in the world, glad they changed it. The Demo somehow sounds more Ethereal than the final version, maybe because there's less noises in the intro.
Wouldn't be so sure about that. Tolkki said that he wrote this song when his dog died, while Koltipelto said that he wrote the song after his black cat kept staring at him. Strato is notorious for not being clear on what the songs mean, especially in the Tolkki era. Personally, the lyrics in this demo sound more akin to Fright Night and Dreamscape, so I can understand why they would want to change it up when Visions dropped.
a ver la cosa es q al ser demo esta grabado supongo en directo, todos a la vez..o practicamente...esto le da mas realidad, no tanto retoque...por eso no suena tan bien, pero suena mas duro, otra historia...
Hey, man! Excellent version! I've never heard this demo before. I guess I prefer this one, the message is really owesome! Thanx!

the demo version is waay better, in the studio version they killed all the micro dynamics, details, soundstage, there are more instruments playing.
This demo version stayed so much better than the original.
jens is on fire
lyrics are way better than other edition
This version has better insturments.
But i really enjoy the Outro of the recorded version.
I personally enjoy both lyrics, especially the first verses

Agree! I have personally talked to Tolkki a few times on the phone and i asked him about it, and he said that the song indeed was for his doggie.
why I prefeer this version? xD
Because it's awesome
Better maybe
Aun siendo demo es una chingoneria!!
Awesome!!
insane keyboard solo :D
ke bueno es escuchar a timo kotipelto con tolkki muy buen demo
