omg same, my mother listened to them when she was pregnant with me so it comes as no surprise to me that all their songs have felt apart of my life literally from the womb 😭 they raised the music taste of some of this generation, for sure
I've been a HIM fan almost half my life. But it seems more than a lifetime ago since I had their posters on my walls, their cds in my walkman and nothing else to care about. I miss those days.
I think it would be great if HIM would be famous amongst teens again like it was 10-20 years ago. I’m a teenager who is inlove with HIM and their music. Wish that they could come back and do some gigs someday 🥹💖
@chillerz7242 I'm so happy that the new generations are finding HIM songs and Ville's new songs. 😘I know that many young people now are rediscovering this Finnish band and its amazing singer and songwriter.
It has been a while since I've last listened to this song or any other HIM songs I love, because life keeps us "busy" most of the time... I can safely say now it never changes for me: every note hits a mark on my soul and vibrates into my heart. The sorrow in Ville's voice is not artificial: it brings out some old memories in me which make me bleed a little but also bring comfort as if someone else has been there already and can understand me and my feelings...
That look, sir, really suits him. I cannot imagine Ville with a different look, to be honest. It's his image, his style. Other than that, it makes him look more rockstar-like, dark and androgynous.Lots of rockers were like that. Lots of them were skinny as well ;P
I recently saw a video on how HIM is cringe and I’m here to say; if you don’t get it then it’d okay. There are so many fans out here still thriving off of their music 💜 HIM saved my life, and I have the heartagram on my wrist to remind me to keep going every single day. Still here years later obsessed af 😍 HIM fan for life
I remember getting the bus to the city so I could buy their albums after a great review in Kerrang magazine. Was 1999 I believe - had my shitty cd Walkman and headphones, buying from HMV. GREAT TIMES!
Can absolutely relate! Then trying not to walk so fast so my disc man wouldn't scratch my cd. Now it's just my ipod. Such memories of being a young scene kid ☺☺
Я начала слушать эту группу в 15 лет(в далеком 2010) в свой неформальный период жизни. многое с того времени изменилось и я тоже. Но Эта группа и ЭТОТ голос навечно во мне. уже 2020 год а я по-прежнему их слушаю ♥♥♥
I remember this song, the returning of H.I.M. after Ville was in the rehab. And they came with the heviest album of all. I was at the practice from my highschool and we had no internet. The album wasn't released yet so I painted one picture for every song.
The thing about bands like this, is that it's not something you just listen to. It speaks to you, it defines you and embraces you. I haven't listened to this band properly for about 2/3 years now, I'm glad I'm back listening to them. I remember all of the lyrics to all of their songs. :)

I always dug how the guys did extremely dark, Type O-esque interludes in the Venus Doom era. The aforementioned album is by far the best they have done yet!
This definitely takes me back to high school when I was 16. So many times walking through the halls and listening to this song! HIM will always be one of my favorite bands.
Indeed. This album was a masterpiece even if it was the first album that they clearly changed their sound. Well idk if its my favorite cuz i love razorblade romance so much but its kinda amazing
I fell asleep yesturday to this song, not 'cause it was boring, more like a BEAUIFUL lullaby. A lullaby you heard when you were a kid and don't want to forget, but this one's more like a lullaby for teens
Funny story, my wife (at the time gf) we're doing the "who is our celebrity crush/would totally sleep with. Valo was mine, made for an interesting conversation.
When I was a teen, I was on the Venus doom street team, handing out stickers to everyone in my small school in anticipation of the new album. I saw an ad for this video on TV at a friend's and everyone there recognized it and knew I was into it.
I will ALWAYS have so much love for this band! They were such a huge part of my twenties. I'm so sad they're doing a farewell tour. I don't want to say goodbye yet!
Love these guys!! been listening for about five years and finally going to be able to see them for the first time ever, later this year @Rock City - sad though, as it's their farewell tour :( but I hope they have a reunion one day and it be epic! :D
The soul of a poet, stature of a vampire and eyes of a fallen angel.... this man is from another level of existence!
Said it all!
Definitely! A talented adonis😥😍🔥🙈💗💋💘
YeS zo am I at least some one understands how I feel xxx
couldnt say it better
🌹🌹🌹
Years later and I'm still obsessed with Ville!! anyone else enjoying this during quarantine 2020, 2021 and forever
I'm right there with you!
Me!!
The gang's all here!
O yes😘❤💜💜🖤
That deep baritone shoots down my spine 🔥
LYRICS
Blinded I am
And so are you
By shedding tears
Confusion that separates us two
We hold dear
Just look into my eyes
Kiss our fears goodbye
I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn
I'm tired of the games
I'm playing with you
When you're not here
Death frees from the fear of dying
It's true, have no fear
Let me look into your eyes
And see death pass us by
I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain you left me with
At the kiss of dawn
I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn
I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
18 years later and I'm still obsessed with HIM!!! Literally I'm in love with HIM :) I grew up on their music :)
Right I did as well and I know how to play some of their songs
omg same, my mother listened to them when she was pregnant with me so it comes as no surprise to me that all their songs have felt apart of my life literally from the womb 😭 they raised the music taste of some of this generation, for sure
My first love. Relationships died but I never stopped loving this band.
Anyone still listening in 2020?
since 2000
I'm here forever
Yeahhh
Daily 🖤🤘🏼
If you're not listening to HIM in 2020, fix yourself
Ville looks like a angel in this video 😍
Annie Bennett he is an angel🥺
Ville was one of my biggest influences growing up, still is. What a master piece of a man.
This band always brings me back to happier times in life. This music is timeless and will always be one of my favorite bands ever
I've been a HIM fan almost half my life. But it seems more than a lifetime ago since I had their posters on my walls, their cds in my walkman and nothing else to care about. I miss those days.
The schoolback with the heartagram on my back and the t shirt of sweet pandemonium on my body i would complete 😂
Him in that trench coat and how he walks and manages his posture....ohhh my😍
Literally the most gorgeous person I’ve ever seen-
Anyone still listening in 2019??
I've tried to find Guano Apes - Kiss the dawn but unintentionally got here
Of course, but mostly I listen now on Google Play :))
But H.I.M is forever
me :) since 2003

Im 17 and i adore HIM so much. We are so lucky that Ville had the courage to do his own solo project though! 🤘🤘
@chillerz7242 I'm so happy that the new generations are finding HIM songs and Ville's new songs. 😘I know that many young people now are rediscovering this Finnish band and its amazing singer and songwriter.
Черт, никогда не прощу кинематограф за то, что с ним не сняли какой-нибудь шедевр, который обязательно стал бы классикой 🖤
Боже, как же вы правы ((((

Never attracted to him but i have to admit that he looks so hot with goatee as Johnny Depp has one😶
this band is perfect.
fact
March 21 2023 and find this,I have never heard before.Gorgeous work!
Oh God! What a handsome man Ville is. 😊
To me, Venus Doom is their best album so far and when they perform this song live is just mind blowing!!!!
Love metal was better.
1) razorblade romance
2)venus doom
3)deep shadows and brilliant highlights
4) lovesongs vol 666
5) love metal
6)dark light
7) screamworks
8)tears on tape
Saw him live two days ago he sang this song now my life is complete 😅❤🎉
I LOVE the frame at 3:28, Ville playing the electric guitar 🔝
Oh shit, I never noticed that before
the prettiest eyes in rock history...
This video clip used to be played late at night when i was 12 and I didn't fell asleep until i watched it . This literally made me love metal .
Made you love love metal 😆
@@MinMin-kv3rv I know, right? This is my second and final favorite HIM song.
I was 12 too in 2007
Finnish music is the best. HIM plays perfect music. I love this band.🖤🎵❤

@@Baard5Szomoru I'm as straight as I can be, but Ville is a hot man, for sure. Maybe because he is kind of feminine.
I'm not attracted to him, he's too affeminate 😂
O principal ninguém pede, que é o retorno dos caras.

What a beautiful man, and the song it's amazing.

Listening to this work of art in 2023

Just started searching these guys up, and I realized something... All their songs are pretty sick!!
Shalayla W If by sick you mean kickass... Yep, you're damn right, lady! X-D
My favorite HIM.

Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn
