Such an underrated band, unbelievable. They don't have 1 bad song!
Beril Sergün katılıyorum!
ne diyon adi karı
Şu grubu dinleyen Türkler görmek gerçekten güzel :)
Bu gurubun türkiyenin mangası gibi olduğunu düşünüyorum yaptığı işler çok kaliteli ama gereken değeri hala yakalayabilmiş değiller,Bu dünyada iyi birşey yapanlar neden kazanamıyor :(
Şaşırdım beril ablada dinliyormuş .)
For a rock band lyrics do matter.These guys are actually 'poets'.
😍😍😍😍
Yes! Music is an art yet modern musicians/bands doesn't express it as such.
There are so many artists in the history who hasn´t been recognized until they are dead.
That hit the spot my man. Truer words haven't been spoken.
@@architdubey5196 Are you for real?
Marko has probably the cleanest voice in the WORLD. Its just unreal!
I agree, he has a powerful, clear voice wirh perfect pronunciation which is pretty perfect to understand and sing along. He is amazing and the entire band has a dreamy fantastical chemistry!
The song is music to my ears hehe, one of my all time favorites!
david lee roth had a low voice for rock as well
Him and Myles Kennedy are my two absolute favourite singers!
Funny, I am also a fan of both Alter Bridge and Poets of the Fall :) Tremonti has a good singing voice as well. Audio Slave's Chris Cornell is also fantastic, though he left the group.
Ransom Seraph Just listen to Soundgarden
A complete injustice to the world of music is that this band has not received the honors and recognition they so truly deserve. They are literally amazing and legendary. Can listen to their songs all day
They are my favorite band! There are even in video games!
I know. Late goodbye - Max Payne
This band really deserves more popularity. So good.
Lets work towards that goal, shall we?
great here in latinoamerica have a great fan of finland music specially poets of the fall
Juan Alvarado That's cool, are they popular enough to see posters of them and such?
+laikafluffz there is no much people ,hthe rasmus is most famous ..i know so much finland bands like avenue sunrise.uniklubi.
+Juan Alvarado :')
It's agonizing to see how underrated these guys are for a band that has no bad songs, they're literally poets.
This band certainly doesnt constantly sound the same on every song they sing. Lead singer has one hell of a voice!
It comes straight from hell I guess...
? I think the weakest link for this band is the singer.
1Life2Little 0:57 for you
@@1Life2Little probably the strongest link ever!
Strongest or weakest is not the thing. This guy, Marko is G.O.A.T. 🙏, Very unique and unparalleled vocal. 🎩❤
Напишу на русском комментарий.
Первая песня, которую я услышала у этой группы была "Sleep Sugar" в далёком 2013, потом "Lift" - очень они мне понравились. Спустя несколько лет я и поиграла в Алана Вейка и мне саундтрек показался со знакомым голосом, но я не обратила внимания. И вот сейчас, играя в долгожданную вторую часть Алана узнала, что там поют Поэты. Шоком было узнать, что разраб игры и солист друзья, так ещё и финны. Обощаю их культуру! Песня огонь, группа огонь!
It's hard to believe that these guys have almost no fan base in the U.S. I've been a fan for almost three years. These guys are phenomenal. Brilliant video!
I'm in the US and they're my favorite band, ever.
SnakeDocter15 Me too. Hopefully they do a little tour here someday. Even if it's a couple, in some of the major cities.
William Bishop seriously. I just found them (im outta tx). Instantly sold.
In Ohio, just discovered them. Now I'm listening to everything :)
I live in the US AND THESE GUYS ARE AMAZING OoO
One of the best bands ever coming from Finland and i'm a proud Finnish! :) Marko has amazing voice! Poets pretty much perfected the "atmospheric" rock.
+Mano Saarinen totally agree listen to old skool metal since 16 now 39 and Scandinavia still produce amazing music you should be proud love Scandinavian metal .......
+Damn Dude u damn fool
+Damn Dude
What's not Scandinavian about it?
Dear, are u the leadin' doctor of 2?
***** Henna dear, i don't get what you mean by that :P Right now, i'm a doctor of confusion :D
It’s almost 2020 and I just heard about them, I listened like 5 songs and all are awesome, how that they weren’t on the mainstream? How?
Same here
Doesn't matter the time my friend. Im happy you found them. This band has a habit of finding you when you need them most.
Right? Been listening to them for years, but I hear ya. Check out Locking up the Sun, and Carnival of Rust. My band does a cover of carnival of rust when we play our live shows because we just loved it so much.
It's a finnish band, they used to be big in the 2010-2013 era.
They came into prominence in Finland in 2003, when Max Payne 2 was released and their song Late Goodbye was in that game. Many PC gamers became instant fans and I also had their first album, Signs of Life. However, I soon forgot about them and while I heard some songs from The Carnival of Rust, I even thought, for many years, they had quit the music industry. It kind of surprised me when I found out two or three years ago that they seem to be quite popular in Central and Eastern Europe. But yeah, they are a great band and I guess they kind of lost their chance when they somehow lost their prominence in Finland.
Just attended their concert yesterday in Berlin Metropol.. Brought back childhood memories! Thankyou Poets of the Fall for all the awesome memories!
I was also there :D THEY WERE JUST AMAZINGGGG
Good for you, had an opportunity to meet them backstage when they performed in Bangalore, India. Cherish those moments for a life time. 🙂❤️
An old roommate of mine, from my time with the Marine Corps, introduced me to this band.
There's some real, visceral, emotional memories tied to some of their music.
Hits me like a truck even 11 years later.
Yes most off their songs are just so emotional, but so good too ;o
Still the most underrated band from Finland.. so weird..
LoveAge i now realised that this is Art is from my homeland...
The crash is.
LoveAge der Welt würde ich sagen 😒
LoveAge d
I thought they from Sweden. Oh well. ALl same.
The only poets on the planet who make a difference .😎
My favourite song of not only Poets' but of all time. I met the band last month in Glasgow and asked Marko to write the chorus for me on my Signs of Life CD booklet. Like the gentleman he is, he did it. :)
can i have a look plz
You are one lucky lady!
Me tooo!!!!! Favourite song of all time
I like how everyone around him is getting pissed off, and he's just all calm and smiling psychotically.
Maybe he's a psycho.
And that butterfly gesture... They used it again, brilliantly, in the video for False Kings, btw...
@@chiffmonkey I told you he's a psycho
Cause really he's a psycho
:P
That whole video is full of references, but corrupted versions.
If smiling could hurt....he would set the world on fire
IMAGINATION That's the word that best defines Poets of the Fall.
Creativity and passion. They are unique, they are magical.
Fantasy crackles with every musical note.
They are not just musicians.
They make art and poetry.
And Marko, your wonderful voice, your fucking body, your amazing talent… you're the essence of each verse. For me Poets of the Fall is the best ღ
+Potterez They are "Illusionist" and "Dreamer"!!!!!!!! Mate!!!
Potterez it's really sad that you think all of this is based on fantasy.
14 years later this song is still so amazing. PotF has done some amazing music, I own every album and will continue to buy them all.
I must have listened to this song close to a hundred times now. These guys.
Same bro.....alcohol is better than this coz dis is more addictive
What an incredible piece of artistic work, I´ve never commented on a song before but this was too good not to. At first I listened to it and thought "I just really like the sound of it and the feeling of rising above difficulties that seems to come out of the chorus". Then as i watched the video a couple of times all sorts of symbolism began to break through. So here´s my take on it and what it means (to me at least); the prison is our society and all the constraints, restrictions and regulations that it imposes upon us. The parole board and guards may be people around us who expect us to conform to the constraints and regulations or to fit into a mold, this is obviously different for everyone but examples might be; an employer, parents, spouse, our children, or even a government/social system etc etc. The moth represents freedom, creativity, following a dream. The room full of moths represents most peoples dreams, pinned down and forgotten. His moth flies freely even though his body may be incarcerated, I think this is especially beautiful because even though most of us may be caught up in a "normal" life and have to pay bills, work etc etc it doesn´t stop us from dreaming and and being creative, we just have to find what it is in this world that gives us that lift! The mundane is described as " move in circles day to day, twist the drama of the play to get us by", a constant repetition. I believe that that the woman (whose picture was used as an article of evidence ) was the one who gave the author his lift and what he needed to rise above the mundane. For each person it may be different but it´s unimportant what it is, just as long as it IS there, it could be travel, a love,or whatever, but we all need to find our own "lift" and never let the mundane or expectations placed upon us by others hold us back from being happy and living to our full potential . Whatever it is that will " lift my spirit take me higher make me fly touch the moon up in the sky when you are mine" then it is that which we must pursue with all our heart and mind. The most profound moment in the video of course is when freedom and creativity and the following of our dreams are deemed to be a "menace to society" as adjudged by the parole board :) Perhaps the woman and guard losing their temper is how people around us react when we tell them "actually I am not going to be what you want me to be, instead I have dreams of my own that I´m going to follow". This is my interpretation and what it means to me, feel free to differ. I´m sure I´ve missed lots of other symbolism but that´s what the song spoke to me.
this is perfect *_* thank you so much for this :)
Thank you for this beautiful and deep explication of the video.
and also erections
+1989Outdoors Right on spot, Bro.
+1989Outdoors Thank you for your time to write such a nice comment...!
I cannot believe i never heard of them until i played control like 5 years ago! This band is sensational!
this band is totally underrated. amazing!
Boss....y u think like that...am from hyd....heard this song 80 times so far....I am happy we are appreciating good music
They sure did lift me higher and made me touch the moon first time saw them live.
Had the privilege of watching them live, too. God they're amazing
you guys also had an eargasm while seeing them live?
I thought that was implied xD
my all time lead guitar song apart from GnR
Joachim Eklund
I like your profile picture.
This strangely has to be one of the most positive songs I have ever had the pleasure of hearing! It just makes me feel so happy. It's a song that I can easily lose myself in for hours at a time.
ikr.... I also love how all of thier songs have a beautiful hidden meaning. Along with them bring soft, but uplifting. I'm probably over thinking it...
+alejandrothefader I think their songs are amazing as well, because they do make you think.
I love listening to songs, just to get my imagination going. Poets are the best at it.
I mean that kinda makes them live up to their name "poets of the fall" that they write their songs with such care, like poets.
It reminds me of my ex, who is just like this song, bittersweet
The view count makes me want to cry. How can a song this good only get 7 million views in 12 years? It should have hit over billion views by now.
Been a POTF fan since their beginning! Seen them live about 10 times, awesome live band too!
If you type POTF instead of poets of the fall! You are not a fan
@@Aghoradipathi Says who?
This mans voice is epic
The chorus has such great rhythm like seriously I have never heard any other singer with a voice like his.
Thats because his singing voice come from his lungs, not from his ass :D
Simo Koistinen Lol got that right man.
+Simo Koistinen so THAT'S how bieber produces those high pitch squeals....
My favorite, Poets is so good! Love it😘
Such an underrated band.
Anyone listening in 2024!🥹
War in Europe
Hell yeah!
Several times lol
Instant nostalgia .
As a boy ..living the golden years of my life and a metal head ..then came the hip hop age and eventually classic songs and now it's just great Nostalgia ...
What a beautiful masterpiece ..
Driving on the beautiful streets of the beautiful city Chandigarh ..with this song ..
What a feel...!!
Miss those days ...
Heartache after heartache ..
A friend of mine from Finland introduced me to this band and I never looked back..I am from Botswana and we met when she visited my country. When ever i miss her Poets of The Fall helps me fill up the void.
💚👍
How could you explain Marko's voice to someone who doesnt know about this band ? Would you say he has a soft voice ? Or would you say he has a robust voice ? Or perhaps you may prefer saying he has a powerful voice or maybe you might wanna say he is melodious.....i couldnt explain his voice with just 1 word...astonishingly he belongs to ALL above mentioned categories !!!
Marko's voice in just one word? Heaven. :-)
That would be quite an accurate description..Very masculine but with a soft edge i might add..
powerful + melodious
"Magic!"
He has a deep, strong and yet melodius and clean voice. Can reach very low notes and high falsettos. Maybe somekind of bass-baritone like Ville Valo
WHAT AN ANGELIC VOICE HOLY FUCKING SHIT
2023 has gone by......we are in 2024 now, still listening to it....a timeless classic...thanks for your music POTF🙏
Times when I just can't
Bring myself to say it loud
'Fraid that what I'll say comes out somehow awry
That is when it seems
We move in circles day to day
Twist the drama of the play to get us by
And it feels like fear, like I'll disappear
Gets so hard to steer yet I go on
Do we need debate when it seems too late
Like I bleed but wait like nothing's wrong
You lift my spirit, take me higher, make me fly
Touch the moon up in the sky when you are mine
You lift me higher, take my spirit, make it fly
Where all new wonders will appear
Like the other day
I thought you won't be coming back
I came to realize my lackluster dreams
And among the schemes
And all the tricks we try to play
Only dreams will hold their sway and defy
When it feels like fear, like I'll disappear
Gets so hard to steer yet I go on
So do we need debate when it seems too late
Like I bleed but wait like nothing's wrong
You lift my spirit, take me higher, make me fly
Touch the moon up in the sky when you are mine
You lift me higher, take my spirit, make it fly
Where all new wonders will appear
You lift my spirit, take me higher, make me fly
Touch the moon up in the sky when you are mine
You lift me higher, take my spirit, make it fly
Where all new wonders will appear
Take me higher
(Make me fly) Make me fly
(Moon up in the sky) Make me fly
Take me higher
(Take my spirit)
(Make it fly)
(Wonders appear)
Welp, it's 2024 and I just won't stop listening to this masterpiece
Whenever I feel sad or disappointed, I come here to listen to this wonderful song. I don't know, it just takes me back to my childhood.
"Times when I just can't bring myself to say it loud, 'fraid that what I'll say comes out somehow awry."
First two friggin verses and the song is already speaking to me on a personal level.
Poets of the Fall are OP musicians, and I hope life never ever nerfs them.
I love how she has "Illusionist" and "Dreamer" checked on her sheet....Illusion and Dream X)
Holy Shit didnt realise that until now..
THATS COOL WOEW
That's one hell of a song too
I want to know her name, can anyone tell me??
Swatilekha Roy mia jokiniva
Always & forever
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that absolute beauty of a guitar solo? Probably my favorite guitar solo of all time. Also one of my favorite songs ever!!!🤘🤘
Actually I don't know this band. But when I met my Rock and asked me what's my favorite band. I answered him I liked country songs. Then he told me that his favorite band is Poets of the fall. And he sent me their songs. Oooooh my God where that voice came from. So angelic voice. I love it. Cradel for love. Oooooh mine. My song for my Rock.
I love you more my Rock ♥️♥️♥️
Returned to this after 7 years. Feels unreal and fresh again just like I found it first time.
I didn't really respond to this song at first... Then I started waking up with it in my head... Now I'm here, December 2020 listening OVER AND OVER. LOVE these guys
Such a pure song.... Such clean voice.... No wonder the band is underrated... Anyone in 2021????
This is daily evening song from last 5 years
2022 :)
Here in 2022 :). Will be back in 2023 too ;).
2022
After all these years?
Ever.
14 years later and it's still fire 🔥🔥🔥
This was my first POTF song. I was around 14-15 years old and after seeing the video on TV , there was no looking back.
3:08 - 3:32 one of the greatest guitar solo I've ever heard. Absolutely Electrifying!
there is no other band on the planet more underrated than these guys. like the instrumentals slap and the lyrics are clever and just beautifully composed.
Rishloo is even more underrated that poets of the fall
WELL IT F*CKIN' LOOK LIKE A DAMN BUTTERFLY TO ME
That ink stain? ...That actually wasn't a butterfly at all in the end. XD The blot 'morphs' into a human-shaped stain which (I think) means the prisoner is so insane he saw a butterfly instead of the correct image...
It actually reminds me of Volt from Velvet Underworld, a Japanese CD drama - he went insane from a scientific experiment, and now he hallucinates so badly that humans look like monsters to him (and he starts killing them).
I'm positive that it was a moth
hahahaha
I thought dragon fly of moth sense there are at least moth here
Idk if relevant, but that 'butterfly' is (or was) POTF Logo
I don't understand this clip at all... Like... WTF?
Marko is an unbelievable vocalist. So heavenly!!
Thanks to Alan Wake for making me discover these guys!
Really?🤦 bruh u missed good 15years of this song
me too, very good!
nobody knows everything...
If you are still listening this masterpiece in 2024 , you have a great music sense.
Love from India.✌️
I seldom collect all the discographies of a music band and I collected for this band. And this is one of my favourites from #Potf
Still loving it after many years!
love, from India 🇮🇳
Same here.. theres another great finnish band called HIM.. their discography is also great!
We Indians started loving real music....at least......now
I'm planning to do the same, buying their albums. They deserve it.
I was thinking of collecting the discography. I already have the Carnival Of Rust album in .flac. the first discography I've ever collected is Linkin Park's. It's a whoopping 13.8 GB's of .flac quality 😂😂😂
Proud of myself
Any Metallica Fan???
The fandom may be small, but we sure are a devoted bunch. #POTFForever.
One word - UNDERRATED.
I didn't know Benedict Cumberwatch was in a band.
One of the first songs that brought me to Poets of the fall.
Noel127 Likewise mate... One of my favourite songs by them!!!
Noel127 This is actually the first rock song I ever heard. Even before Linkin Park.
Noel127 Same here :) I was brought here by an RC plane video in fact :)
+Noel127 First song of them I heard
I was running a benchmark test on my PC, and this song played at the end. Such nostalgia.
I saw them live yesterday (at Kolkata, India), you won't believe how good this band sounds live.
This band will always be a cure for my depression
that guitar solo gives me goosebumps.
For the 5 years I've known them, I've never been able to get bored of this band.
This video/song will always be special to me. Thank you PoTF!!
Right? That was seven years back and I am still returning to this song, to these videos, over and over..
It’s been 8 years. How are you, beautiful?
If you happen to be listening on good headphones see if you can hear the way when he sings 'disappear' leaps to the right and far back almost behind you- like it's disappearing. Just now caught that. Cool little detail.
STILL HERE. LOVE THIS 😭😭💜❤️💜❤️
These guys are criminally underrated and unknown
36 are Menace to Society. Even after 9 years, this song still sounds amazing.
Make it 52
+arindam pandit Check 55
+Uriel Raven-Frost now 57 haha
Make it 97 now lol.
311 people have a serious disorder
I live in America and just discover this band and have bought every album I could find. Marko has such an amazing voice with such a range I have rarely ever heard and Ollie’s bas playing is also amazing they don’t have one bad song and the lyrics oh my gosh. I’m straight obsessed
And it really helps that markos doppelgänger is my boyfriend, they literally look exactly alike only difference is their accents that they speak with
The guitar in this is way too good to compare with. And ofc Maarko is a gem
the guitar part is amazing
While everyone’s enjoying marko’s vocals I couldn’t get more excited watching his video. Hats off to the film makers for creating such creative visuals.
Maybe 6 years ago i meet this band and ooooh man the chills still gets on me, what a incredible band omg... Love from Argentina!
The feeling in his voice..
Its 2021 and i listen this everyday
Marko ohh Marko !! How can you be this good !!
Anyone in 2023???
Still here ❤
Ooh yeah
Always
Here sir ✋
Never left
Listening to this master piece from 2009 I think. Every year 30-40 times.
2019 and I STILL keep this song on repeat when I'm driving or at work. POTF is still one of my all-time favourite bands!
Marko's singing always lifts my spirits, takes me higher, makes me fly...
oh they played a guitar solo!!! What a solo!!!
Two good things came of buying Alan Wake. Number 1, the game was epic, and I'm ready for a legit sequel. Number 2, I was introduced to an amazing band that's captivated me with every song. Excellent work, Poets! (I'd much rather study this kind of poet in Lit class lol)
i didn't find this band. this band found me. so powerful the images in my mind when i hear this. so gothic. the beautiful sadness. i understand now :')
In US this band would had been a huge success if been american, but they today have fans all over the world. One of the best bands ever from Finland.
Just realised... that guitar solo is absolutely amazing.
The most underrated band of all time.
I love the guitar riff.
Poets of the fall will always remain a favourite!!
I was 9 when i heard this song now I'm 17. This song still hits hard.
Love from India 🇮🇳
I was 17 and now im 27 and this still slaps hard
Glad to see so many fellow Indians...❤️
Marko's voice adds to the entire music. Love this song
Thank you, Sam Lake and Remedy, for introducing me to this awesome band!
My favorite band
Poets of the Fall is a gem cut with mastery!
That was really beautiful and disturbing. This music, and these lyrics, and those videos - all of these create an atmosphere of a dream. Of a beatiful colourful nightmare, which looks like a fairy-tale till the very last moment, when it's already too late to run. Actually, I don't even want to. It's so hypnotizing.
I agree!!!
This band is very special to me
Потрясающая группа. В 2013 году посетил их концерт в Ростове-на-Дону - до сих пор под впечатлением, а сколько приятных воспоминаний... Только я не пойму одного: почему поклонников их творчества так заботит, что коллектив "недооценен" и не набирает over 9000 просмотров в секунду? Мне, например, это только импонирует - я слушаю потрясающую музыку от талантливых исполнителей, которая при этом не играет из каждого утюга. Музыканты получают своё за их труд, никто из них не бедствует, их музыка при этом остаётся качественной и не заезженной! Так зачем мне беспокоиться о просмотрах?..
Amazing band! Attended their concert in 2013 and I still impressed. A lot of lovely memories... But say me: why do you worry about their "underration" and less-then-100 mil views? Their music is great because it`s not so popular and it doesn`t play from every corner. Guys get their own money and they are pretty rich i think. Meanwhile their music remains clean and high-quality. So why should I worry about views?..
Unbelievable guitar melodies in this one
I swear to God once this song got to the chorus it made my heart open right up something I haven’t felt with music since I was a kid. Holy baby Jesus I’m a few years too late to the dance probably eh. God bless this band
anyone still coming back to this lovely song?
I've only just discovered this magnificent band.. what a voice!.. Brilliant.
