I just saw them play this live last month when they opened for Nightwish. This song was amazing from their set. I won't say I'm a huge fan of the studio version, but this song KILLS live.
i love this one... its my favorite version... i can play it too... ill be youtubeing it when i get back to NC... cant wait i love this song and this band is the best... cant wait for the new album
@lfgubrs It's about relationships and wanting to scape, being afraid, loving too much, being lonely, expectations much, loosing control...about a moon that won't ask for anything and will still be on the sky every night...
Definitely the best music there is in this world. I mean, I can sit back and listen to Melodeath, Hard Rock, Metalcore, Hair Metal, Classic Rock, ANYTHING, but as soon as it comes to Power Metal, there is no better genre.
This is the "normal" version. The REAL version, not the studio processed version. No video can fully capture the exchange of raw energy that transpires during an awesome performance like this. 2:06, nuff said.
One of the only bands I know that are genuinely at least as good live as they are on the studio version. Almost nobody is good enough to do that but geez they sure are
@leetatron he is the most amazing person, his voice is flawless and sounds amazing live, also the remastered version of wolf and the raven sounds amazing as well
Though it *is* "sitting" on the album, its still his song to change as he pleases. remember just a few songs after this he said "we're not iron maiden, and we're not from England, we are sonata, we come from Finland" In Black Sheep? So yeah, he changed it as he pleases.
FullMoon is from Ecliptica and White Pearl Black Oceans is from Reckoning Night, so i think it's the other way around xD But never mind, still oh so very beautiful...
I don't think tony forgot the lyrics of his own song. Sonata just doesn't play their songs like they are in studio, they vary them. Otherwise you wouldn't have to go to a concert: you could listen to the songs at home
Actually I saw em play the song live a few months ago and It was very damn close to being perfect. They probably had some prerecorded vocal lines to go with it through, but regardless it is great regardless of how you ehar it ^_^
when the crowd chants *RUN AWAY RUN AWAY RUN AWAY* gives me chills every time. absolutely amazing performance and energy
9 years later and 2:10 still gives me chills
I love how he acts out the lyrics :D he's AWESOME.

Lyrically phenominal. Musically incredible. Best live performance of this amazing song that I've found on youtube yet :D Sonata Arctica ROCK!!! :D
This meadley is the most beautiful thing on this dvd... Omg... This keyboard line is so perfect...
he's got one of the most uniquely recognizable voices in power metal. i love the crowd response in this video
The lyrics were what were being rewritten, and he is the primary lyricist, so I stand by my statement, thank you very much.
best song, best performing... what more can i say? its simply epic
i love this one... its my favorite version... i can play it too... ill be youtubeing it when i get back to NC... cant wait i love this song and this band is the best... cant wait for the new album
The golden era of Sonata... I will miss you some day.
I love Tony´s live singing mucho more than the one in studio!!! thumbs up for him! :)
I want to see these guys. So much.

Geile Band!

@iLoveCluckinBell i actually am so used to listening to this live version that I too miss the solo when i played it with my old band

"Are you ready for some underwear music?" hahaha

@unexplainedpointing they are. this was shot in japan. different culture = different behavior. trust me, they are loving it
OMG! This is soooooo great :D
And yes, that pause in the solo is a bit weird, but the solo is awesome anyway, And the original is also WOW :P
I haven't hear such a beautiful song in 240p \m/
Every time I look up at the sky and see a full moon, I go to this song almost immediately.
Amazing...

One of the only bands I know that are genuinely at least as good live as they are on the studio version. Almost nobody is good enough to do that but geez they sure are

I LOVE SONATA!

I like how he sings, he has a very diferent voice when he talk, he knows ho to do it!!!!!

@YorkJonhson I love the spotlights on the crowd whenever they sing.
Love it
@pablinio2 Nos vemos en Groove en Octubreee! todavia no puedo creer que van a venir de vuelta, la priemra vez me los perdi, esta vez voy si o si!
They took the White pearl and Black Ocean Intro as an ending for Fullmoon, Beautiful
Great song! Mahtava biisi! \m/
@leetatron he is the most amazing person, his voice is flawless and sounds amazing live, also the remastered version of wolf and the raven sounds amazing as well
I love it !!!!
awesome !
I love this song
Tony sounds exactly like he sounds on the records except for some minor changes...... AWESOMENESS!!!
Though it *is* "sitting" on the album, its still his song to change as he pleases.
remember just a few songs after this he said "we're not iron maiden, and we're not from England, we are sonata, we come from Finland" In Black Sheep?
So yeah, he changed it as he pleases.
The 5 guys rocks...talented ones :D
They sound awsome at live concerts! ;o
the intro is like a dream *-*
i love it!!!!
@iLoveCluckinBell some people think that it was a deliberated choice,but i totally agree with you!!and i'm a jani's big fan!
@shoeberrypie The phare is because, in the DVD, after this song continues "Victoria's Secret" song
RUN AWAY RUN AWAY RUN AWAY :D. the best song ever
I want to see them live so bad
Going to see them live on november 4th :D
AWESOME!
Don't forget Ensiferum, and Wintersun! Also, the less known but still amazing band "Celesty" :D
She sees the change in him but still can't RUN AWAY!!!
First of all... I'm so glas my sis told me 'bout them! They sound amazing!
Second... woah, that crowd was on fire! xD
They are great, i love them
And BnasBnas, you are right :-)
tony kakko is one of my favorites vocals of all power metal sonata rocks!!!
@Himynameistorres I think he's a great singer, one of the best.
This version is better than the studio version
to song only fantastic yeeeaaaahhhhh
FullMoon is from Ecliptica and White Pearl Black Oceans is from Reckoning Night, so i think it's the other way around xD
But never mind, still oh so very beautiful...
SONATA ARCTICA. la música que me gusta
Pablinio...Sonata Arctica and Stratovarius are The Best Power Metal Bands Ever!! :))
I love how they added Black Pearl, White oceans at the end
severa cancion
I don't think tony forgot the lyrics of his own song.
