Story behind this song is really sad. :( Tony had a friend who was an amazing artist. He once draw a portrait of his father, and just a few days after it was finished, he passed away. Months later his friend asked him to draw a portrait of him and so he did. A few days later, also he died. He hasn't drawn anything ever since.
You mean Tony had a friend, who's father died after Tony's friend made a portrait of him, and then the friend asked Tony "Tony, make a portrait of me!" And Tony did...and the friend passed away so Tony hasn't made a drawing again? Or was it a third friend that asked Tony's friend for a portrait?
This song, White Pearl, Black Oceans, and his guest appearance on Epica's White Waters are the three songs that showcase his true vocal potential. It's too bad that we'll probably never get a Tony Kakko-Roy Khan duet.
Tony knew a very talented painter, this painter decided one day to draw a portrait of his brother, sadly his brother passed away very shortly after he painted the picture The painter painted a portrait of his father a few years later and his dad passed away a short week after The painter now refuses to ever paint again this is the story behind the great song
talk about a nostalgic moment............well this song is great and i love it! ...when i have found a song that makes me cry...ill let ya know...................and im letting you know, this song made me cry
@RobedBassist Sonata Arctica always has a genius texts...somethimes all song is just normal and then one text and its starting to be amazing song...that's why I love Sonata so much.Tony has amazing voice, music is good and text r incredible.like..." U cast a perfect shadow on my paper, I fear the way U know me, love can leave a strain" and many more...I love song Don't say a word by them, and I love song by apocaliptyca where Tony is singing-Don't care...
yes but replica and don't say a word were great to :D I also enjoyed the drum game with we will rock you. you know I even got a plectrum :D but I still don't know from who he is. but I'm happy having one
haha that's funny. you have lady fortuna by your side. I looked at the ground after they played but I couldn't find anything. I thought maybe there was one still on the ground.
@Wolkenkotze Dude... He said it at a concert right before playing this song. He also said he thought that it was terrible waist of talent that he stopped drawing. I've got a feeling that this is a true story... Unless you tell me that you heard from Tony that it's not true.
i am happy that after 20 years many people discovered sonata arctica and finally they get the attention they deserve but i am lucky to have enjoyed their music since year 2000 to this day...and they are a completely different band but still rock those were the days
i love this song...i really like drawing... and i'd be really sad if i had to give up drawing because it'd kill the people i care about... so the lyrics have real meaning to me... Sonata Arctica is my favorite band since i'm a metalhead (3 years) and i hope it'll still be when i die of old age :)
@thelivingbrain123 me too:0 It's the most beautifull song by Sonata...Tony Kakko is amazing and Sonata always have great words...almost poetic in their songs:)
now this is just beautiful song, why ppl down it well all are titlet to their opinion ofc. just a gr8 tune :) sadly sonata did fall afar from these songs in thier newer songs:)
haha geweldig dat je het drumstokje in 2e heb gebroken ik had hem echt uit haar handen getrokken en gedaan alsof er niets aan de hand was :P en nee heb jullie niet zijn vechten want dat was veel verder achter me en al snel werd ik zelf omgegooid.
Do you remember, my love? There was only the dust, the sea and our hearts so closed to our love. How much sorrow in our story, how many arguments: I know you can't forget this as you can't forget all my words. Now my body and my lips are for someone else, and my heart would like to be too but he's so cold with me..... I miss your sweet presence....your words..... forgive me, if you can....
@biscoitosss i assume you're trying to say "i don't have this video anymore so i can't edit it" there's something on youtube called "annotations" you can place over it ;)
Sodeska, this is my favorite song of Sonata Arctica and the more beautiful. I dedicate this song for my love, cain-sama, ofthe anime Trinity Blood, becuase I love...
The song is made after a rumour or a fairytale: An artist who stopped painting living things because every single person he painted died shortly after, of unknown reasons. Great Tony himself said it on a concert.
@SurvivorsOfTitanic Tony, the singer, had a friend who is really good at drawing and painting and stuff like that. So one day he decided to do a portrait of his father and shortly before or after it was finished his father died. The he did a portrait of his brother and then he died as well. Ever since he has decided to never draw again.
I can't understand it's possible to make such beautiful songs as Sonata Arctica does, and they sure know to rock too! Crap, it's like impossible to not love them. I really like this song, it's so beautiful!
I WAS THERE!!!! My friend and i drove from NE pennsylvania to see nightwish at ramshead live. we were an hour outside baltimore when we got the call. it wasn't nightwish, but sonata arctica did a hell of a job making it up to us. this was my favorite song they sung.
I can't believe my ears when this guy sings. He is amazing
powerful voice indeed yes
Indeed
Tony kakko is only one

+Jonathan Duckworth i love you. the two best.
Don't forget "Last drop falls", it suits his incredible voice so much.
Can't forget the misery
khan kakko and allen. i don't think life would be the same if the three came together.
I love how Sonata Arctica can make some amazing metal songs and then turn around and make something as beautiful as this. Long live Sonata!

this is the story behind the great song
@osholeeⓋ I saw them live and this is the story he told before they played the song.
I loved this song.
But after hearing it live on september 19th (2008) I have a whole deeper feeling for it.
Tony sang with so much power...
Blessed with an eye to see things as they are, will you draw me?
I think..This is the most amazing song I've ever heard
@nsskid Essentially, a very old man on his deathbed reflects on a long-lost lover he had a very long time ago. He realizes his life was a failure.
@lorehal yes ! i'm agree with you..
this is a good metal band, great sound and lyrics !
Tony Kakko is one of the world's greatest lyrics writer in my opinion. This song ain't an exception. It rules!!!
talk about a nostalgic moment............well this song is great and i love it!
...when i have found a song that makes me cry...ill let ya know...................and im letting you know, this song made me cry
wow this song is SO beautiful!!
Great video man... "Faild" or "Failed" it just doesn`t matter... You made this video so great... Favorited.
Beautiful song. Tony Kakko has one of the most beautiful voices in the world.

@biscoitosss i assume you're trying to say "i don't have this video anymore so i can't edit it"
there's something on youtube called "annotations" you can place over it ;)
Not fair, Anette was sick on the night of their concert in MD, so Nightwish wasn't there. But it was still an amazing concert.
Yeah! And a great singer too!
Sodeska, this is my favorite song of Sonata Arctica and the more beautiful. I dedicate this song for my love, cain-sama, ofthe anime Trinity Blood, becuase I love...
beautyful!!!! i love!
@thelivingbrain123 My best friend had said the same thing. When he died in an accident I gave him this gift by putting this song at his funeral....
@SuperGenesisDude
Seriously? That's so sad and creepy. But where did you get that info. Did he say that in an interview or what?
The song is made after a rumour or a fairytale: An artist who stopped painting living things because every single person he painted died shortly after, of unknown reasons. Great Tony himself said it on a concert.
just beautifull!!!!!!!!!!!!
You failed at Faild xD Lol No biggie like someone said, the song is what matters :D
it's amazing
same happend after 'good enough is good enough'.
I didn't really see the use for that either, but I don't really mind.
anyways, love this song :D
draw me just wait for the music, what a gr8 song :)
I LOVE THIS SONG THE MOST
i saw them on like september 21 and when they opened for Nightwish best concert EVER!! but thats my opinion
listening to this song is so easy and yet the song is so beautiful i can't stop listening so i replay it over and over again
Not really.
But to free you from any form of doubt: this song was written before Death Note was published.
I was so into the song, and then say that and almost pissed myself laughing :P
No offence to the creator the video was awesome xD
@johnjohn123456777 Was the story of the painter really true? As in true to life, unlike that of the song Mary Lou?
У вас есть их диск?
Great work!
amazing...
@Wolkenkotze Apparently not... What's it called?
... Beautiful...
