I agree! I’d say these two and “Land of Snow and Sorrow” fit nicely together in the same group of slower songs. I especially like “Death and the Healing” for it’s very nice melody. :)
Nice one as per usual! I would recommend to listen through the Forest Seasons album in order - Loneliness is last (winter) 😬 preceeded by Spring, Summer and Autumn, as is only right and proper.
They are amazing , and super sweet too!! I saw them in 2017 (i think) I met them at the signing session and Teemu offered to watch me while I slept to get through the day to catch their show at 1 am ahah
The acustic parts Jari plays couple of times really sound like something you'd play on kantele (Finnish trad instrument, harp like). Gives it really folky feel. I love it. He has done the same sound in couple of other songs as well, like Loneliness. I truly recommend that you listen to it next. It's very beautiful. The whole Forest Seasons album is great imo.
"The Way of the Fire" live @Hollywood [multicam] gotta be next! It's not an official recording and the sound quality is far from perfect, but the song is sooooo incredibly good. If Jari ever releases a studio version its gonna blow everything out of the water
Oh my, you just said what I feel! Musically takes you on a journey of the mind. Been so long since I've heard music that opens the mind for journeying. Winter sun,nightwish, ayrean how have I missed this music. ?? Wow!
hey, thomas. i totally agree that i wish there was more of this band. what there is, though, is phenomenal. thanks for such an awesome reaction to such awesome music!
It's awesome that we can interpret songs in our own ways, it's all about how we feel the music :) This song was so intense, though in quite a different way compared to the last ones you've reacted to. Got major chills towards the end!!
Just love Jari's voice. Such a great band. Great choice Thomas Definitely Loneliness 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 WOW only feels like 5 minutes ago that you were doing your 5K subs. celebration. Congrats.
Thanks Basil!! Yeah I'm chuffed, so cool seeing it at 5 figures. Will be doing a 10k special this weekend. Also will be posting one of your suggestions very soon. 😉
Just wait until you hear Loneliness (Winter) from them. Reaction to their whole Forrest Seasons album would be awesome and i know that you'll gonna love that album.
Thank you Thomas for another great reaction! It's not a happy song, is it? That Finnish melancholy kicked in? Amorphis has similar effect on me.. it's aggressive, beautiful and sad at the same time. Only classical music and metal can do that to me.
Hey Toid! Thank you. Funny how Finnish bands are good at doing that. I thought Finland was, on paper, the happiest nation? Maybe the key is embracing melancholy and not hiding from it. 🤔
@@ThomFoolery1 If we are the happiest, the others must be totally miserable 😂 You may well have a good point in that we embrace our melancholy instead of trying so hard to be happy.. and actually that makes us happy, because we are honest to ourselves about it. Metal can also be uplifting and happy, so I urge you to try Ensiferum and their song Rum, Women, Victory (official video) That'll help put smile back on your face after the downer from Wintersun 😉
This album is such a masterpiece. While waiting for Time II (could still take a while....), you can check a similar band, Atavistia, with the song Seas of Stars
This song is acually in Drop Bb but they use a pitch-shifter live in order not having to bring two extra guitars since they already use two different guitars, one in D standard and one in Drop C
Man you catched Kai's sign of approval. If you want to see more of the slower and calmer side of Wintersun, you should do Loneliness. But be warned, this one is a challenge for reactors, it's too emotional and sad.
American here and I’m pretty positive there’s no metal band from our country that comes even close to this imo. All my favorite metal groups tend to come from Europe, and mostly Finland.
🎶 AWESOMENESS 🎶 heard you were running to Wintersun, so if you haven’t already, download the 2004 album “Wintersun” there’s no vids to go with it so just put your headphones on and run till you drop 🤣 you will not be disappointed 🤘but you will be knackered 🤣 go dude, gooooooooooooooooooooo 🎧
Wow, so awesome this trilogy... I wonder however, why the studio versions are so polished up and overproduced. I mean these rehearsal versions are stunning but when I listen to them on, for example Spotify, I get really dissapointed somehow, no matter how high I turn up the volume... Anyway, great reaction! Cheers Thomas!
This is great, sounds so Finnish. We are the happiest country in the world, so this our music.
They are amazing you should listen to more of there stuff ,Loneliness is my favorite
Mine too, it's amazing 🤘
@@ninau. Brings it you to tears??
You hear the pain of Jari when he wrote this
@@adriennevanhoof6637 He is an excellent storyteller for sure.
Same. Loneliness is such a perfect representation of the depression I went through in college. It takes me back in a way, but it's also cathartic.
Wintersun, quality not quantity!
Haha yes, they define that phrase!
These are the feels in Finland right now. Gloomy, icey, foggy and dark. Every day.
Can confirm, besides last couple few days of sun it's been a frozen hell this winter.
Weather still shit in Finland, this could be our alternative national hymn
“Loneliness” is a great choice! I also love “Death and the healing” heavy and emotional
I agree! I’d say these two and “Land of Snow and Sorrow” fit nicely together in the same group of slower songs. I especially like “Death and the Healing” for it’s very nice melody. :)
Wintersun is such epic music. I love it! Loneliness is another one that just takes me on a mental journey.
Pure finnish melancholy so nicly output... love it !
Your facial expressions says it all, words is not enough. I feel the same.
i've heard this so many times and never get used to how beautiful
Nice one as per usual! I would recommend to listen through the Forest Seasons album in order - Loneliness is last (winter) 😬 preceeded by Spring, Summer and Autumn, as is only right and proper.
Kiitos Tanja! Ooh that is ambitious but I like it. Maybe I can do a live stream or something. 🤔🤘
@@ThomFoolery1 Maybe listen to them separately in 4 videos, each one has a different feeling and it is worth it to listen to all of them.
This is my favorite of their songs.
My favorite Wintersun song. Thanks, enjoyed the reaction. 🤘😜🤘
Thanks Sean! :)
This song brings me to tears.
They are amazing , and super sweet too!! I saw them in 2017 (i think) I met them at the signing session and Teemu offered to watch me while I slept to get through the day to catch their show at 1 am ahah
Nice Reaction as always
Thank you Vikum! Yes I think that one is next! 😄🤘
Glad that you enjoyed!
Pure metal perfection!
Greetings from Tampere🇫🇮!
Kiitos! 😄
This band its sadly underrated. They are insane, pure talent.
Very nice, Thomas. During this song my feelings and thoughts went from the Netherlands to Finland in the wink of your mind. Thanx man.
The acustic parts Jari plays couple of times really sound like something you'd play on kantele (Finnish trad instrument, harp like). Gives it really folky feel. I love it. He has done the same sound in couple of other songs as well, like Loneliness. I truly recommend that you listen to it next. It's very beautiful. The whole Forest Seasons album is great imo.
Yes, those parts sound so gorgeous! I think they use the same effect at the start of 'Time'. I'll have to look up that instrument. :)
And now Jukka is new basisist in Nightwish... :)
Amazing Talent on display right there.
Open a couple of beers and listen " LONELINESS" just epic.👍👍
"The Way of the Fire" live @Hollywood [multicam] gotta be next! It's not an official recording and the sound quality is far from perfect, but the song is sooooo incredibly good. If Jari ever releases a studio version its gonna blow everything out of the water
Thanks for the tip! 😄
Yep, definitely has the potential to become their best song. Two otherworldly solos inside.
Yes, someone finaly suggested this version of the song, for me it’s their best song by far and thats says a lot, considering every song is a 10/10
Oh my, you just said what I feel! Musically takes you on a journey of the mind. Been so long since I've heard music that opens the mind for journeying. Winter sun,nightwish, ayrean how have I missed this music. ?? Wow!
Good reaction. Love these live sessions by Wintersun. Sound so good.
Pohjalainen virsi, sekoitettuna kainuun nälkälauluihin, vaasalaisella poljennolla. Toimii aina.
Kyl mä täst jotain stadia löydän myös 😁😁😁❤
hey, thomas. i totally agree that i wish there was more of this band. what there is, though, is phenomenal. thanks for such an awesome reaction to such awesome music!
Winter madness please Thomas 🤟
Revisiting this a year later, man you hit everything I thought on first hearing this song too!!!!
Cheers Allan! Hope you're well! 😄
Yeeeeaaaar!
I don‘t know that!
....Playlist....✅
Ok, problem solved 😎
😂
It's awesome that we can interpret songs in our own ways, it's all about how we feel the music :) This song was so intense, though in quite a different way compared to the last ones you've reacted to. Got major chills towards the end!!
Totally! I wonder how others interpret this. I love how different this was. 🙂
Kiitos. Eurovision 2021 Finland. Blind Channel - Dark Side. UMK 21.
I watched this the other day! Interested to see how they do. Nothing will ever beat Lordi though! 😄
@@ThomFoolery1 I hope :)
Every single song is incredible from this band. You have only touched Time. Still two albums to go! And Time 2 maybe 2032!
Hahaha! I'm sure it'll be worth the wait. :)
Yeah, this song is a glimpse to the Finnish psyche, I think.
Just love Jari's voice. Such a great band.
Great choice Thomas
Definitely Loneliness 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
WOW only feels like 5 minutes ago that you were doing your 5K subs. celebration. Congrats.
Thanks Basil!! Yeah I'm chuffed, so cool seeing it at 5 figures. Will be doing a 10k special this weekend. Also will be posting one of your suggestions very soon. 😉
@@ThomFoolery1 Excellent job getting to 10K so quick👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Jukka is brillant on Bass.
Love your reactions! 😊 Loneliness next?

Yes, either that or it's the abundance of heavy metal bands and Saunas 😂
Thanks for the tips!
❤❤❤ greet.from 🇫🇮
This album is such a masterpiece. While waiting for Time II (could still take a while....), you can check a similar band, Atavistia, with the song Seas of Stars
They play what and love to play not for radio . That is y Thayer are so good.
Well done!!! Next you can do "The Forest That Weeps" (summer) my personal favorite!!!!!!!
This song is acually in Drop Bb but they use a pitch-shifter live in order not having to bring two extra guitars since they already use two different guitars, one in D standard and one in Drop C
Wow, that's even more impressive. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Man you catched Kai's sign of approval. If you want to see more of the slower and calmer side of Wintersun, you should do Loneliness. But be warned, this one is a challenge for reactors, it's too emotional and sad.
Time II D-47 😎

nice react again! you should look Amorphis the bee! also from Finland the promise land of Metalmusic!!
Kiitos Rauno! That's a great song, did a reaction already 😉 ua-cam.com/video/Dz_2tjTTmwk/v-deo.html
Sorry i just find it! thanks for your response! truly like your reaction vids!!
Thanks very much! 😁
Please, please, react to loneliness, if you have passed by sad situations it may root your heart
i prefer it when he screams
time2 is out
🎶 AWESOMENESS 🎶 heard you were running to Wintersun, so if you haven’t already, download the 2004 album “Wintersun” there’s no vids to go with it so just put your headphones on and run till you drop 🤣 you will not be disappointed 🤘but you will be knackered 🤣 go dude, gooooooooooooooooooooo 🎧
Haha thanks Jeff! Playing Time and Sons of Winter and Stars is about as long as I can run so better improve my stamina for that one haha
Dear Thomas, you know that Nightwish has a new Jukka?
Yes, I watched the digital NW show. He was great. 🙂
And he is taller then Floor.
tell me that harmony starting at 6:30 isnt the single most impressive in metal history
Wow, so awesome this trilogy... I wonder however, why the studio versions are so polished up and overproduced. I mean these rehearsal versions are stunning but when I listen to them on, for example Spotify, I get really dissapointed somehow, no matter how high I turn up the volume...
Anyway, great reaction! Cheers Thomas!
I know what you mean! I always listen to the UA-cam version of Time. As great as the studio recordings are, there's a realness to these ones.
