I came back here only to remember the countless Time listening to this video for this song What a journey. Much love to all Wintersun fans that waited years for The Way of the Fire
Raven Lunatic, if you're still dropping in on occasion to see these comments, just wanted to say thank you for giving us this amazing recording. I've watched this video hundreds of times over the years while waiting for the album to release. I have no doubt that even after the album releases I'll still find my way back here, this video will always be nostalgic to me. Truly, thank you so much!
I'm gonna leave this cursed world behind I see the sky so calm And I can't leave anymore In the coldness of the winter night I will find my way somehow... Beyond the stars a new world awaits me now! Oh, Through the fields of snow... We walk, The endless path of stars. We will reach the horizon... WE WILL REACH THE HORIZON! - "Insert one of the best melodeath riffs here" -
That moment is incredible, I almost never get this burning feeling inside my chest while listening to music nowadays but this is exactly when I do. It's like something from other dimensions tearing you apart.
It will never come. Kai is playing for Nightwish and Teemu for Megadeth... I have given up hope for Wintersun sadly... Buuuut you never know with Jari 😀
Man I just said the same to Jari some days ago. Have been to a tons of concerts in my life but only two bands managed to give me goosebumps. Cradle of Filth in 2003 and Wintersun in 2019.
Man I watched this video over the years, always wishing I can hear the studio version of it. And as Jari posted Time II is 100% done I got goosebumps and some tears shot in my eyes. It’s surreal
The solos still, after 13 years, gives me goosebumps. Hell, the whole song is just pure bliss from the start to the end and I'm having goosebumps all the way through. Truly the song of my life
Jari is a sick troll... He plays this BEAUTIFUL song at a concert, and we have to wait however long to hear a decent recording... EDIT: Yes I know it's being released this year.
After an amazing solo, comes one of the most beautifull and emotional orchestral sections, followed by a riff of the same melody. Jari sure knows how to play with your feelings!
The lunge issue yea, no matter, he was awesome last year, more energy in his voice, dont worry for the solos, his guys are more than capable.

Even if they don't release Time 2 until after their studio is built, this track definitely needs to be a single for the next crowdfunding campaign. Please fucking record and release a demo version of this song Wintersun.
What´s the problem? You are so incredible and virtuous. We are waiting for the new album. It doesn`t make sense to wait for so long. Please kicking ass my friends. In my opinion you would be one of the best metal bands ever, but release your shit. It´s so beautiful.
You try wrestling full creative control from the lable, make the money to build your own studio from the ground up including all the equipment and shit, writing (it's not entirely done by any stretch of the imagination...) gathering everyone, recording, re-recording, re-re-re-recordinh, mixing and working with ALLLLLLLLLL the seperate bits and layers. And since this is a new studio, deal with whatever crapple has broken in their latest/semi latest updates between the OS and whatever DAW he uses. Not to mention he already mentioned running into a power wall with how much is going on in these masterpieces... yeah Tell us how you do since somehow in your mind this is some form of simple (it's not 😉) A virtuoso need time to craft their baby. This is Yari's baby, not some shit pop band releasing bland garbage like diarrhea every split second. Nor some office shtick.
I saw this song performed in Cleveland in August 2013. The solo brought the entire house down. It sucks its 2015 and there is no plan for Time II due to Jari's disagreement with the label over his need for a personal studio.
Shamelessly stole this from ivreactor on one of the other versions of this. I take no credit. but heres the lyrics that he wrote: Fire - the oldest one The force in the beginning of time Show me your face and your real size Reveal the secrets of the fading time I saw the realms of the "Styx" (As a lighthouse) I can see from the dying day Until the fire will burn all the memories away The greatest one, light the path I have chosen Take me away from the sweet "meadows" Take me away from the treacherous shadows Nothing will last forever even this fire I have inside Fire was white (goes wild) in the mountains Burns (burst) inside my heart Burns away all "little space" and time From the ashes new world will rise Chorus Fire - the oldest one Burns wild inside my frozen heart Fire - the greatest one I will never understand the way of the fire Fire - the oldest one It lights my chosen path so dark Fire!!!

Fire - the oldest one
The force in the beginning of time
Show me your face and your real size
Reveal the secrets of the fading time
I saw the realms of the "Styx"
(As a lighthouse) I can see from the dying day
Until the fire will burn all the memories away
The greatest one, light the path I have chosen
Take me away from the sweet "meadows"
Take me away from the treacherous shadows
Nothing will last forever even this fire I have inside
Fire was white (goes wild) in the mountains
Burns (burst) inside my heart
Burns away all "little space" and time
From the ashes new world will rise
Chorus
Fire - the oldest one
Burns wild inside my frozen heart
Fire - the greatest one
I will never understand the way of the fire
Fire - the oldest one
It lights my chosen path so dark
Fire!!!
(You can never change the way of the fire)
Million sparks rise dancing to the sky... {the spoken part can't be transcribed}
Solo #1
...
I see the sky so calm
And I can't live (leave) anymore
Coldness of winter night,
I will find my way somehow
Beyond the stars a new world awaits me now
Through the fields of snow
We walk the endless path of stars
We reach the horizon (x2)
Come,
Follow me,
To eternal stars
And I'll guide you away from the dark
In the coldness of winter night
We'll find our way
To the place of the fire's light

I can almost reach, but I'm still so far away
Fire will die (guide) when it's time to leave this world behind
With it I leave this world behind
