An old man by a seashore At the end of day Gazes the horizon With seawinds in his face Tempest-tossed island Seasons all the same Anchorage unpainted And a ship without a name Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts The ones on their travels homeward from afar This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago The albatross is flying Making him daydream The time before he became One of the world`s unseen Princess in the tower Children in the fields Life gave him it all: An island of the universe Now his love`s a memory A ghost in the fog He sets the sails one last time Saying farewell to the world Anchor to the water Seabed far below Grass still in his feet And a smile beneath his brow This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago So long ago So long ago This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind so long ago So long ago
I saw you left a comment on Eramaan Viimeinen, saying you were about to release a piano version of it. This is your first Nightwish song I’ve found and I really like it. I have that tour shirt too, haven’t missed a tour of theirs since 2007 or something.
As it seems to me you are always playing with mathematical fidelity in other covers of Nightwish by you. You never play a note longer than it is on the piano sheet. (Don't get me wrong, I respect that, it is your relationship with the music) But here in this song I find your play very sensual and lyrical, and I visualized the swinging of a cradle, or of the pendulum, or something like that. It's a great song that maybe expresses the sense of the whole album (who knows?)) All in all , it is a great cover , and you do really right things that you make covers of Nightwish's songs) sorry for my English)
Amazing! Are you planning also Tarja Turunen´s solo songs, please? (I Walk Alone or Victim Of Ritual for example) :) And what about brilliant Nightwish´s songs - Once Upon A Troubadour and The Carpenter? :)
This is my absolute favourite song - and my absolute favourite cover! Amazing work once again! I'm already excited for the next one! BTW I feel like I'm using too many exclamation marks, but it's just necessary :D
Hey, is there a way to buy sheet music of this song? I bought some your sheet music of Two Step From Hell on sellfy, but I can't find a link to this one :( and it's soo beautiful. ps. Because of your sheet music and tutorials I started playing on the instrument :)
so my vote (comment... no money sorry :D) didnt win.. is it? :) but this is... oh damn. nice :) editing the comment continously while listening this for the first time... u the mvp :)
I think you're trying really hard to improve your word capacity... every fine comment comes like the same and you always say thanks to them with different words :D
It's honestly the best cover I've ever found on this Nightwish song !!!!
I agree that this was very good. In addition to Andrews works, I would recommend also checking out covers by Dean Kopri.
An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With seawinds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world`s unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all:
An island of the universe
Now his love`s a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
So long ago
So long ago
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago
So long ago
Thanks for the lyrics
Nice work man!
+Peter Gundry | Composer thanks so much, Peter!

Haha, glad you liked it! :D
All good! XD

Please do End Of All Hope
if you do so, then that would be amazing
this cover is one of my favorites so far, I MIGHT(don't get triggered yet) say it's better than the original
I'm glad you liked it! :D I'm focusing on Two Steps From Hell at the moment, but might make some other Nightwish arrangements available on Patreon :)
Andrew Wrangell Music guess I'll wait then
Hey, is there a way to buy sheet music of this song? I bought some your sheet music of Two Step From Hell on sellfy, but I can't find a link to this one :( and it's soo beautiful. ps. Because of your sheet music and tutorials I started playing on the instrument :)
Do you have sheet music available for this because I so desire to learn this song
Amazing!, Can you tell me what brand and what series is your piano?

Haha, thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed. Maybe your vote will get it next time!
I think you're trying really hard to improve your word capacity... every fine comment comes like the same and you always say thanks to them with different words :D
Haha, I am not going to copy-paste!
Well done, another brilliant cover!
You gonna do some more originals soon? Your last one was fantastic :)

🖤🎶🎧
Linus knows how to play piano wooooooo
is there the direct link to the sheet music of this song?
can you please tell me the name of your piano? I can't find electronic piano with more then 67 keys. BTW great cover as always :)
This one is a Casio CDP-100. They don't make those any more but they do make the CDP-120!
Andrew Wrangell Music Thank you. Now just find out how to get those money, when I am just 15 :)
💙🎵
didn't use a pedal but think I should do it on this song, it's impossible to play normally without using it
I can 't find the sheet :(
i want to buy your nightwish t -shirt.
" bless the child " PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yo, what happened to the blue button up?!
i couldn't stand to sing while listening this)
