Now let's think here.. this band is just as good as Iron Maiden, or any of the major bands out there... why... why are they not as popular... these guys are awesome!
I think the Sun part is also literal at the same time. He's on a summer holiday to San Sebastian, so he calls the girl "the sun of san sebastian" or "san sebastian" as a nick name, but he also talks about grey skies coming, which makes me believe that he's talking about how summer slowly glides to autumn, which is when his summer holiday ends and he has to leave, away from her.
The other day a guy came up to me and asked my name....I didn't like him, so I just replied "I'm San Sebastian"....He looked confused and asked me "Why? What do you mean?"...I smiled...and said "Because I'm way too hot for you".
I think this song is about the singer fancying someone but he cant bring himself to ask her out because he thinks she is too beautiful for him so he lives in loneliness which is what marring the moon is a metaphor for and so he spends his time thinking about his crush. Sun of San Sebastian is also a metaphor for the girl which can be compared to loneliness being the moon.
great, just great, another song that'll be stuck in my head for a solid week due to its epicness. C'mon guys, stop doing this to me, I just got Fullmoon out of my head a day ago!!
this song, like all the other by sonata, makes me think of him. and i suffer so much, because i know he'll never love me.. the sweetest thing ever lived.
San Sebastian is a man..The Sun of Sebastian represents his vocal chords when he was lost in time. Nowadays he still sings, but everybody prefers to watch his videos from when he used to sing for Skid Row.
most metal heads use sonata arctica as an escape for the angry growling lyrics of most metal bands these days. such as me im a fan of machine head trivium and lambof god to name a few these guys are on a level that make u apreaciate what you have and ebrything that ever gets you down tony makes u feel like life is worth everything u give it if u dont give it 100% u will achieve anything. peace
maybe the girl in the song is from san sebastian, and he calls her to sun of san sebastian cause she's the most radiant thing of the town? just an off the top of my head theory
man... this song brings back some memories, not memories about the song, but about my past... why doesn't youtube have an automatic replay button so I can fall asleep listening to this all night u.u
It's too melodic, it lacks aggressiveness, and explores too much on feelings. I'm not saying they're bad, I like some Sonata Artica songs, but I play them in very specific situations (like when I have to drive fast and carefully). It's just that most metalheads need something harder than this.

Every single day, for the rest of my way
I life whithout my love, my god
I have to stay in shade
The best part of this song

Nope, it's not from Silence...it is from Orientation :)

Silence and Ecliptica..... i love those albums
8 personas no saben lo q es arte. buen video compare :D // people don't know what q is art. good video compare :D
I miss this Sonata
It's too melodic, it lacks aggressiveness, and explores too much on feelings.

Such a tragic song, i dunno..
:(
indeed, beautifully tragic
the one person sundenlly brought 5 friends with him...!
if i am right i think San Sebastian is a place... that would explain why he says the Sun of San Sebastian ,,, its the only explanation i see...
There are six ¬¬ Mother of god this is music in his true essence well in the world are stupids too e.e (Spanish here :P)
oo - oo
best guitar solo ever
Is this San Sebastion (Revisited)? and if not, what is the difference between the two? Or is there any at all?
No, it isn't. There is a difference, the revisited one is a faster one and sounds more like Ecliptica's tunes.
I'm from Argentina, but I live now near San Sebastian x3 It's beatufull, but not so much the people xDD
This perfect song: My life right now :´(
MAXIMO!!
He voted six times omgggg

San Sebastiano è troppo caldo per me
I can totally relate to this beautiful song ;u;... even though I'm foreshadowing it
6 now :-) they wanted to share this "one person's" deafness and solitude.
This song is so good! But is there a Sonata Arctica song that isn't?
You're welcome. Look it up and you'll probably notice it too :)
