Been listening to Strato for 10 years now. Where have all the years gone? All their songs sound like I've discovered them yesterday. Mastery of power metal
"Where have all the years gone". That is, in fact, a very good question. I discovered this band over two decades ago and it feels like it was yesterday.
I assisted a live Stratovarius show during their Italian tour supporting Rage during End Of All Days Tour in 1996 together with my brother . We got to the club and we were really curious to listen this unknown band from Finland opening the gig. I do not exagerate, we were maximum 70 people in front of the stage and Timo Kotipelto had no idea of where he was. He told the crowd he supposed to be playing in Florence 😂. The club was 40km far from Turin! They opened their performance with this song. At the second song we were already addicted to their neoclassical power/prog. After the show the guys were between us watching Rage on the stage. I remember that my brother approached Timo Tollki telling him "Great show! You play like Malmsteen! " and Timo "Oh..thanks a lot!" The day after the show I purchased this masterpiece album and it became one of my favourite ever. One year later they released Visions writing their name in the Metal music mainstream. After 27 years, I still do prefer this authentic demonstration of talent, taste and technical skills.
It was the year 1998 or 1999 when I first heard this song. It was the best thing ever. Now I'm listening to the chorus with a bittersweet nostalgia trying to fight tears.
I just remember my days in the school i heard the band in 1999 but i heard this song in 2001, Helloween was and is my first heavy metal band, i saw many concerts, many bands, but when you remember some things from the past, mmmm, i never had a friends or girlfriends, no matters the world the life its so beautiful so greatful, ahhh great moments whit the music and alcohol.
12 and listening these kind of songs?My dear friend you are in the right path don't ever change remeber that...ever. Stay Metal for all time!!! PS:Faith in kids these days restored
Wow~ Systematic clean sound and so much accuracy, still soulful voice with perfect pitch~ Georgous song. I love their song "Forever" century's master piece~
I believe one of the reasons for this, its because despite the fact that the instrumental is powerful and inspiring, the lyrics are melancholic, since it talks about how fast time flies by and we can get nostalgic/philosophical about it.
fooo.... i listen to it over and over, cant stop! its the source of most of my artworks, its like perfect when u go anywhere and enabling you to see beauty in everything!
It's supposed to fill you with rage to make the most of your time, and to say to his old wrinkly shriveled face ... "Father Time ... Yer A Dead Beat Dad!".
I become so sad listening this song. For some reason I start to recall the old times from childhood, before I actually have heard it for the first time.
Que nostalgia me da al escuchar esta rola se me pone la carne de gallina recuerdos del año 2007 cuando nos reunimos todos los sábados en el ula ula saludos rockers salvadoreños
Being 15 i lost my farther last year, i come to this song quite alot, couldent think of a band i would want to represent my dad in my mind more, thanks strat
Venia a decir lo mismo, jajaj. Y en el Visions of Europe con Tolkki haciendo los coros es mas epico aun, sobretodo en la parte final cuando le sube una nota a la voz
its pretty hard to say top 5, even top 10 songs from strato, but ive always been thinkin' that this would be one of them. Best of bests! Strato forever!
thank you. episode is the first STRATOVARIUS'CD which I bought.and I love it.I didn't understand the song because I cannot listen to every word.Now I understand.FATHER TIME is my favorite song.
heard about Stratovarius in the first class of high school around that time. Father Time and Episode album was released few months earlier and made a huge impact in metal community of Greece
Shiverous chorus, that oooooooooohhoooooooooohohohooooh is just fucking marvellous. Also present in some old helloween tunes from the classic Keepers' era.

True! Thought often the same :D
Same! Pretty deep.
Add a decade for me... time flies away
Where HAVE all my friends of yesterday gone? This fucking kills me
나는 이것을듣고 미쳤었다
Best power metal song ever!!!
You Betcha Sir 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

PS:Faith in kids these days restored
My 1st time listening to Stratovarius was this song in 2002, i was blown away by the melody and lirycs, so much power.
20歳になった頃にメチャんこハマったアルバムというか曲、しぬほど聴きまくった
私も同じ時期にこのバンドに出会いました。もちろんお気に入りの一曲です。あの当時ストラトヴァリウスにアングラ、ハロウィンにガンマレイ…メタルの世界もいろんなバンドがいて元気だったな。
Ahhh que recuerdos de adolescencia...
До сих пор слушаю, спасибо им за такие песни..
Wow~ Systematic clean sound and so much accuracy, still soulful voice with perfect pitch~ Georgous song. I love their song "Forever" century's master piece~
what a piece of lyrics my friends... amazing
To me this is the best master piece by Stratovarius 🔥
Jörg Michael's Fills are truly something. Best Drummer ever
추억의 노래 잘듯구 갑니다. 😃👍
THE BEST SONG EVER OF STRATOVARIUS !!!!!
Is my Fav of Stratovarius
Yes! I have been looking for the name of this song for a long time! Now that I have found it my life is complete!
I don't know why, but this song makes me feel so emotional and I can't stop replaying it
I believe one of the reasons for this, its because despite the fact that the instrumental is powerful and inspiring, the lyrics are melancholic, since it talks about how fast time flies by and we can get nostalgic/philosophical about it.
El disco que consagro a Stratovarius !!!
fooo.... i listen to it over and over, cant stop! its the source of most of my artworks, its like perfect when u go anywhere and enabling you to see beauty in everything!
I don't understand how a song can have such depressing lyrics and yet rev you up so much. Every time I listen to this I feel amped.
The music is awesome, the singing is too, but the lyrics are depressing.
Indeed, that's why i love this song, it's nostalgic and energetic at the same time
Agreed
Power metal FTW
It's supposed to fill you with rage to make the most of your time, and to say to his old wrinkly shriveled face ... "Father Time ... Yer A Dead Beat Dad!".
Man, I miss this Stratovarius so much....
This song is sad an great at the same time.
I become so sad listening this song. For some reason I start to recall the old times from childhood, before I actually have heard it for the first time.
yeah, i feel the same
The best STRATOVARIUS FOREVER!
Oooh oh oh oooh oh ooooh oh oh ooooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooooh Yeeeaaaaaaahhh
That sums up my emotion
One of the best killer riffs of all time
un himno al power metal !!!!!!!!!!!
el mejor dia d mi vida cuando vinieron a mexico!!! por dios mejor dicho por Strato , fue otro nivel , fue ver a los dioses
Hellllllll yeahhhhhhhh! Metal is forever !
Increíble Jorge Michael en la batería, que bestia de humano nunca lo podría olvidar ese doble bombo de ROBOT preciso que buen tema, me hace llorar.
it amazing drummer.......very fast.......i love stratovarius !!!! :) :))
Mi hermana, que no escucha musica y no entiende nada, le hago esuchar Strato y me dice "parece todo hecho por una maquina"
awesome song best stratovarius song
Soundtrack of my life... thank you STRATOVARIUS !!!!!
This song is awesome. I like it so much. Power Metal rules!!!
Great song. First metal song i intentionally listened to when i was a kid. I believe Stratovarius' genre was called "purple metal" at one point hehe
@@rosvopanda2905 this is most likely amethyst metal
This song is absolutely awsome! Father time won't be so kind to 12 people.
Que nostalgia me da al escuchar esta rola se me pone la carne de gallina recuerdos del año 2007 cuando nos reunimos todos los sábados en el ula ula saludos rockers salvadoreños
Un tema nivel dios,de mis favoritos del power metal.
I love all the little Helloween-isms in this song.
Haven't heard this for years!
Stratovarious is a gift that keeps on giving.
THE BEST SONG OF ALL THE TIMES !!!
That's true.
I grow up with that band i love to hear hear them all the time ..
Marvelous
one of the best metal bands ever
the chorus is so touching
I first heard this song when I was 14. I’m 26 now, where have all the years gone?
in 10 or 20 years, i'll be crying of nostalgia
Lmaoooooo same
It's been about 20 years and I agree with your statement. You'll be back.
yeah, the same
I already am
So true.
I have heard of this music in this youtube first, and I love it's cool voice!
Son estraordinarios como banda!!
Power Metal 4 ever!!
Este tema te vuela la cabeza, todo el power!!
Uno de los mejores de Stratovarius,en mi opinion
Being 15 i lost my farther last year, i come to this song quite alot, couldent think of a band i would want to represent my dad in my mind more, thanks strat
E mágico chega arrepia
SO HEROIC, SO EPIC...AWESOME!!!
This is all about better confidence 🤘🏼😆🤘🏼
至高のメタル・アンセムであるアゲインスト・ザ・ウインドで始まるあのアルバムの次回作でコレを出してくるんだもんな、もうスゲーとしか言いようが無かった(笑)
I love this track I express all my feelings in this song
The chorus is exceptional.
Such a great song. You don't hear good music like this anymore. New music is crap!!!!!
Very true. Luckily the maestros of yesterday and days before that made a lot of great music for us to enjoy.
Man i love this song
What an epic song! Tic Tac Tic Tac Tic Tac
Esto sí que es música navideña!
Navidad 2019
아버지의 시간 그아픔의 역사앞에 기도합니다
my first cd that i owned back in the day....
Sabaton Metal Night at the Museum sent me here! Never heard of this group and not sure how I missed them, but tasty tune.
3:22, I can't even find the words, it's just...so beautiful...
muy bueno de lo mejor del power y de las mejores de stratovarius
This song is the best of Stratovarius!!!!!
Power Metal Rules 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I want this song to be played on my funeral.
lml
ChrisPTY507
Beautiful 🤘
3:23 essa parte sempre me emociona, nostálgico.
Venia a decir lo mismo, jajaj. Y en el Visions of Europe con Tolkki haciendo los coros es mas epico aun, sobretodo en la parte final cuando le sube una nota a la voz
Siii, la bateria parece una locomotora
Best song by Stratovarius IMO... this one and probably Darkest Hours :-)
I remember when i was seventeen listening this song.....
Right now im seventeen and listening this song :D
I remember when i was 10
pure power metal!!hail timo!!!!
I love stratovarius, episode is my fav album
Excellent album
Best detail ever
My fav band and i think thats the best album from stratovarius
Great band
Powerful lyrics!!!!!!! this is sooooo true,,kick ass song.
Thanks God, we already complete this song on our practice jamming
ストラトヴァリウスのアルバムのうち、初めて手に入れたアルバム。そして、全曲のなかで、一番のお気に入り。ストラトヴァリウスの曲に最初に出会ったのは、テレビの映画宣伝でながれた、インフィニティ。
Música perfeita!... Banda espetacular 👏
genial wn .. uno de los temas mas rapido que tiene Strato !!
LARGA VIDA A STRATOVARIUS !!!
its pretty hard to say top 5, even top 10 songs from strato, but ive always been thinkin' that this would be one of them. Best of bests! Strato forever!
Adrenalina pura lml
Quando ascolto una canzone che mi piace, alzo il volume nei tratti più belli.
Questa canzone la devo ascoltare tutta col volume a palla
Why "Father Time" is NOT on the new Stratovarius: "Best Of" (2016) ???
lmao excactly. So the album should be renamed "Best of the rest (2016)"
You gotta leave SOME good songs off the album otherwise why bother looking at the rest?
Granted they probably didn't have room to fit 50% of infinite.
I ask the same question
Where have all the years gone?
Pero que maravillosa canción *- *
Ay no sabia que Roberrrrtino Garcia oia metal -w*
damn im gonna cry
thank you.
episode is the first STRATOVARIUS'CD which I bought.and I love it.I didn't understand the song because I cannot listen to every word.Now I understand.FATHER TIME is my favorite song.
🍻❤❤❤i love stratovarius!!
I simply love Timmo Kotipelto's voice! It's magic!!!
He reminds me of the singer of Helloween(old Helloween)
@@christopherklingel2153 yeah michael kiske and timo have similar voices, especially in this song timo sounds a lot like kiske.
This, Eagle heart and Black Diamond are my three favorites by Stratovarius. Excellent power metal. They remind me of Helloween.
Is this true? Lol! 😂
@@joshbarreras7255 just my opinion nobody else's.
Great songs
Same but I'd like to add Hunting High and Low and Blind
Exceptional Song
heard about Stratovarius in the first class of high school around that time. Father Time and Episode album was released few months earlier and made a huge impact in metal community of Greece
A timeless metal masterpiece in my book
3:23 I-I thought I was going to cry
i was going to cry to when a hear this song for the first time
hahaha!!! :'D
Cállate Flanders!!! XD
Ned Flanders
Hey i was going to cry,it was just a powerful feeling of fun but no tear have flow
Shiverous chorus, that oooooooooohhoooooooooohohohooooh is just fucking marvellous. Also present in some old helloween tunes from the classic Keepers' era.
stratovarius has te best, and most beautiful chorus i've ever heard!
i repeat every chorus like 76437542625 millions of times x)
Time well spent.
