Lyrics:
Flag In The Ground
In the days when lands were few,
And man sometimes had no chance
But sell his soul to his landlord to make a living
In far and away country,
They gave acres of land away for free,
To all able to claim it
Ships sailed across the great seas,
Fortunes were made and dreams shattered
Sometimes couples were torn apart,
For all they could afford, was one ticket.
Leaving my life behind
My young love and the unborn
Only have a lock of her hair
And burning love inside
After forty work-filled days and sleepless nights,
The sails are lit by the lights of Boston
And here we go
Off the ship! towards the adventure,
The one to define our lives.
Daily grind and a tiny room.
I got here safe, love.
I have an address, until spring, then I shall race for the land,
Hope to hear from you soon
Her letter reads
Please let me know everything's alright
Thinking about you, though you're out of sight
Every night, when I'm turning in, my tears find me.
Please hurry, dear, come back and rescue me
Now that I have made the dollars we need for the dream.
The best horse I've ever seen,
A carriage and everything I need
I will make my way to the great unknown
Every moment I wish you were here with me now
Please let me know everything's alright
No, I'm not a stranger, among the people in here
Yet I have never felt so alone
At high noon the sound will boom,
And I will start racing for the
Land we can call home.
I stuck my
Flag in the ground, screaming 'n shouting,
I've never felt so proud, love!
We are free from eternal serfdom!
I'm gonna bring you home, my light!
Nine, eight, seven, six, counting the days. solo!
Five, four, three, two, together forever! solo!
I made my way into the great unknown
Land by the river, and a new built home.
I am the land and the land is me
Freedom is everything and we are free
I made my way into the great unknown
Land by the river, and a new built home.
Every night, when I'm looking at the full moon rising
I hold you and know that we are free

This entire album is criminally underrated.
The whole band is criminally underrated.
I wholeheartedly agree!
Agree, i was guilty... but now i loved it
jani's leaving the band got underrated => jani is on-rated
Py 3.14 I like Jani. I think he was an excellent contributor to the band. The song that he wrote, "my selene" is one of my favorites. But when Jani got arrested the band had to carry on. There is no use harboring a prejudice against SA because they went on without him when it was Jani's fault that he had to leave in the first place. They left on good terms and now we have the band Cains Offering. Two bands making more music that I like. Is Sonata less without him? Thats up to personal opinion. I like their current lineup and think Elias does well. SA has changed so much from their old days that its hard to make any comparison. But bands must evolve. If they did the same thing forever, they would get old. I liken them to the band to Queen. not all of their alums are awesome but they are always innovative.
Wow...just love how you worded that! Sonata Arctica are very dear to our hearts.
Today i found Sonata Arctica. Today was a good day.
Oh, boy. You're in for a treat. I kind of wish I were you.
same ;P
RangerFaramir i found them the day my friends took me to a show in december
ice cube :D
Same.
HELOUST HELOUST!
I love the singer's energy and facial expression while he's singing. :) That's passion right there.
Sonata Arctica was the first band I really loved, when I was 8yo and I still love them now. They're simply the best.
Found out about Sonata Arctica first with this song, and (don't judge me) I was playing Runescape adventuring my ass off at 2009 with Sonata Arctica, then all the Finnish bands came along, Children of Bodom, Nightwish, Stratovarius, good times, hope Sonata Arctica comes back with more stuff like these, hopefully.
Dude same.
Same here, but I was more like Tibia instead of Runescape
Currently playing RuneScape listening to this song. Sonata Arctica, Nightwish and more. Freakin' love them so much.
Same here i still playing tiba with sonata song miss my childhood playing RuneScape and Tibia with power metal songs
I was playing Riders of Icarus when I got introduced to this lol.
Damn, everytime i go back to hear Sonata ARCTICA its always impresse me how good it still is after a decade even
Every single song by Sonata Arctica is epic
Just heard about this band just a few moments ago. And just finished listening to this song before I posted this comment. I now understand why my life felt incomplete until now. These guys are fucking awesome.
They are even better live.
oh yes. see the guys in Germany.. and i feel totally in Love :D #nohomo
+Dan Kyrill I saw them here in the U.S. and immediately fell in love.
I saw them here in Venezuela, one of the best days on my entire life, i love this band, their songs, their lyrics, everything about Sonata Arctica its beauty.
Hands down my favorite Sonata Arctica song
In 2011 they came to Brazil. It was the first time I was in a Sonata's concert. When Tony came in playing this song , its was one of amazing experiencia I ever had!
Shame Sonata Arctica isn't as popular in the US than it should be. They're so awesome, from first album to last.
If you read the lyrics while hearing the song, it gives you the chills. LONG LIVE SONATA ARCTICA
I love this band (PERIOD)
Like im actually considering to travel to Europe to see them... like no joke.
Eu era muito viciado em Sonata, eu lembro no dia que eu ouvi pela primeira vez, tempo que não volta mais... vontade de perder a memoria e ter a sensação de escutar pela primeira vez.
Sei como é. Tmb não esqueço a primeira vez que ouvi, na casa de um amigo, o winter's heart guild . All the way back in (golden) times...
Eu também mno pra mim sempre é a primeira vez que se torna o som mais gostoso de ouvir
Eu não conhecia muito essa banda, atualmente é minha banda favoritaa de powermetal🔥🤘⚔
Eu também, a primeira que eu ouvi foi Victoria Secret. Foi algo mágico, algo que eu nunca tinha experimentado antes. Minha porta de entrada pra essa banda foda
@@lucas__miyu começou, na minha opinião, com o melhor álbum deles. The Cage e Victoria's Secret estão entre as melhores músicas deles.
Until today, Ive only listened to like one band and a bit of another. Now, I have found the 2nd part to my heart of music.
Firewind and Sonata Arctica are now the power metal bands that keep a fire blazing in my heart
How Awesome is this band!!! They cannot make a bad song!!! Everything they touch turns to gold!!! I LOVE SONATA ARCTICA
The reason this music is so much better than a lot of the music today is because these guys enjoy playing, its not just about a paycheck for them. This is why most of these metal bands are so good. The whole genre is not as demanded as pop, or alternative. They simply play because it is what they enjoy.
That quick little lead at 3:00 is flat out incredible.
This song reminds me of old times of Sonata, I hope they return to their formal style and become my favorite band once again!
They should've given Tony a microphone, most singers have no idea what to do with their hands or how to move otherwise. Lol. :P
lol its a pretty kick us up tempo song, can ya blame him for wanting to move around and get into it
I just love how energetic Tony is in this video. He seems to really enjoy doing what he does, and he certainly does a great job of it.
Just found this song today. Awesome band.
Wolf & Raven is their best
este grupo es de lo mejor que hay de musica a nivel mundial. Ya hace como 4 años que los escucho y aun tienen el toque.
Larga vida Sonata
This is one of the best songs i have heard so far on my quest to find the ultimate power metal band and song!
seeing them in a few days!!!! hope they play this song, totally my favorite
Ah Sonata. So nostalgic listening to this. Such a great album when it came out. :D
And still is a great song
Will always be a great song
Sonata Arctica Power Metal estou ouvindo e curtindo.
I miss these times as the world is so fucking fucked-up right now.
Me too missing 💪
Simply fantastic, I've referenced this quite a bit because it fits the heart and soul of exploration. Sonata Arctica, Pleas for the sake of music as a whole keep being awesome.
Sonata is epic itself, I just can't choose one song as a favourite.
... And Tony Kakko is the hottest man alive.
Why is Fabio Lione the guy in the story?
why wouldn't he be?
I'm not into metal. But this band. This band I can listen to, and have been for a couple years.
I love Sonata Arctica. They will always be one of my favorite bands. This song that they wrote here is about a peasant going to make his own life with his wife. A tremendous hardship at the time. They want to live their own life as individuals. Its July the third and this makes me feel very patriotic. Not because of all the political crap of what America is in the moment, but what its supposed to be. I love freedom and individuality. I love the idea of suffering though problems to find hope. Thank you Sonata. This song is a love-letter to what America is supposed to be.
Flags in the ground for metal,hail Sonata Arctica!
im serious, how can 600 people in this world dislike this song? it has something for everyone, great singing, expert guitaring, serious fast accurate drumming, and a wonderful story to boot. now how can anyone dislike it?!
Some people just like being miserable pieces of shit ig
Oh lord, that Chorus is epic!
+Lambo Diablo less epic when You know it was a song about watching tv at first :P look for Tricky Beans Blackout song
Usually, I am not a fan of particular group because I only love one or two of their song. But with Sonata Arctica, it's not tthe same thing. All Sonata Arctia's song are good. Long live to Sonata!
older sonata arcticas songs are F****NG awesome these are only awesome
perfection in the form of music ♥
Never getting bored of listening to this song.A timeless classic!
i missed them,soo long i havent heard these amazing band
I always get a bit surprised when I see their mv's because Tony Kakko always looks so much better than I imagine X)
Excelente música, bom trabalho Sonata!
i've been a SA fan since Ecliptica, HOW did I not hear this before?! :0
--awesome as always!!
we have the POWER!!!!!
超!!格好いい！最高だわ！！！
que nostalgia este fue el primer tema que escuche de Sonata :3
My Favorite Song of Sonata Arctica! :')
In Forever Forever sonata artica 😊🇧🇷
Всегда уважал эту комманду !молодцы ребята! Давайте новые альбомы не угасайте !!!!!
Idk how I got here, what I am doing here, but this song is pretty epic. Now I am kinda hyped to play a battle ground in WoW and fight for a flag "on" the ground.
One of the best Power metal and Symphonic metal bands in the world. Their conception of metal is unique. In almost all of their songs is very good combination of voice and melody, which makes their songs very catchy and also still entertaining. Very good work, keep it up.
I left my home and my love to go far far away from my country... and I perfectly feel the song. Thank you Sonata Arctica.
最高！！！好きだわ
2019? ❤
Jarvan IV aproves this.
Wasn't that a standard? xD

Creo que nunca en mi vida voy a superar este video. Es perfecto. Aguante Sonata!!
Power Metal has the power to reach into the soul (especially mine).
Niilo22 VOU VOU VOU

Kuhtalainen musavideo 2/5,5
Amazing... this song is amazing.

I can not help it but to hear "I got here safe lel" at 0:53
Now you ruined the song for me XD (not ruined but i hope you get the joke)
Victor De La Quadra Ye I ruined it for myself too haha
I love that melody before the solo comes !!! AMAZING song !!!!
Her letter reads...
"Please let me know everything's alright
Thinking about you, 'though you're out of sight
Every night, when I'm turning in, my tears find me
Please hurry, dear, come back and rescue me"
crying blood ç.ç
this guys are opening for nightwish in the Colorado springs concert hell yeah is gonna be a good show
+Amaranth Yes! Going to see the show in Cleveland. I only wish they were sharing the headline so they could be a little more even on set times, but yeah, it's going to be amazing.
+RandomRaven I thought there's just Pittsburgh, Columbus and Detroit?
+Amaranth I was talking to RandomRaven, who said that he/she was seeing the show in Cleveland. I'm from Cleveland, and was pretty sure the Nightwish/Sonata Arctica tour was only hitting cities around Cleveland, not Cleveland itself.
However I forgot that Sonata is doing a headline set in Cleveland as an off date from the Nightwish tour.
+Vikram Shankar - Official (obelix5150) im going to the concert for nightwish. but having this band Sonata Artica is a plus. hopefully they won't change them i really want to listen to them live
I saw them in Birmingham, Alabama. Most amazing show I've ever been to. I did not expect Sonata to be as incredible as they are.
Tony Kakko is so hot omg
I know right! he is one of the hottest guys on finland😍
é brasileira? :')
I prefer Jukka Nevalainen :P
+Emily Taylor Also a good comedian too XD
+Lone Mic Productions Which concert did you see them at? Saw that at Tampa FL
Simply The BEST!!!!!
This is getting very unique. Each song of the new album sounds unique. That's talentful stuff. Keep up the good work! I cannot find another metal band that I love as much as you.. unfindable
I've always liked the song. But I'd like to know how a band from Finland knows so much about a part of 19th-century American history that a majority of Americans know little or nothing about.
Magic
John Cate An English study showed that Metal Heads are usually more intellectually inclined than other music fans so that might give you an idea why
John Cate They probably watched that movie with Nicole Kidman in it, as I did, she's so fucking hot on that.
John Cate It's because there were a lot of Finns who moved to America back in the day for various reasons and most of us have distant relatives overseas, it's a shame that most of us have no clue about their existence, but on the other hand, neither do they. They might not know their roots that well or at all and/or they're not capable of speaking their original language that their ancestors spoke.
Not to sound like too big of a smart alec but this is late 17th or 18th century America. If it were the 1800's you would not look for the lights of Boston. You would instead look for the statue of liberty or ellis island. Both in New York. Also, during the 1800's the steamboat was invented so it would be more likely for there to be one going across the ocean than an old galleon (or comperable wood ship). Finally, putting your flag in the ground like that ceased by the 1800's because by then you had to buy land. Fortunately land in the west was cheap due to the homestead act.
Man, stop saying new Sonata or old Sonata, it's fucking Sonata!! The best power metal band!!
Gabriel Servilha cai pro pau
かっこいい！
Damn, this song got me to tear up. So good.
Cheers from the great unknown!
that man is Fabio Lione? xD
i love this song
Todos os clichês possíveis de metal melódico em uma só musica. Gostamos.
Amazing!
Americans, Europeans, any other race? why does it matter, we are all in this page because we love sonata arctica, now lets enjoy the music!
2:40 dat face tho
That solo does not exist.A God must have composed it.
This is the best love story I've ever heard! Sonata Arctica for ever!!
I love Sonata Arctica❤️❤️
this is a power metal?
Yup. 😁
No, this is Patrick
Ubisoft should have used this song for ac4 black flag in the soundtrack
awesome
I really don't know how can any new record of Sonata Arctica beat The Days of Grays.
But if this happens, holy crap ...
Fabio Lione is there? lol at 0:52
Mauricio Schell O.o true.
kkkkkkkkk lol My friend .... tu é br?
You ruined it for me now...
You guys seriously need to bring Jani back into the band. I can't even imagine how good the music would be with 2 guitarists.
Jani and SA parted on good terms 7 years and 3 studio albums ago. Just let it go, man :(
I don't want to..... :(
Jonathan Unger And just to be clear I really like both sounds of SA. My ears tingle at the thought of both awesome guitar players (and writers) making music.
Great song, great band! Finland has shown itself as a f#cking amazing factory of bands! \,,/
you could see that they are pretty amazing at making songs and even now after jani has left you can see that he too helped a lot with the twisting and turning in interpretations of the songs and moods
Wtf the Fabio Lione lost brother kkkkk
Sheldon Yokai better than him ur Brazilian
kkkkkkk?
Sensacional gruno espero proximamente vengan a México.feliz 2014 a todos los fans
Y, vendran a Guadalajara?
