AMORPHIS - The Bee (Official Lyric Video)

[@danielshults5243]

You know that feeling when you've just discovered a band, and you're super digging it... and then you discover they have like 9 albums? Yeah, looks like Amorphis and I will be spending a lot of quality time together.

[@tapioturja6179]

You have a lot to find out :)

[@karirytkonen5811]

Only that they have 13 albums. And their time range is almost 30 years... They have renewed a lot during years, but there are familiar elements through the years too.

[@flipemoff1836]

Congratulations on having dug up this treasure. Don't know about you, but I can never get enough of their music \m/

[@avengedsevenfold065]

Same first time hearing this band and holy fuck it's great

[@schade80]

Well happy for you. It just amazes the amount of people who have only recently found out about bands like Amorphis, Sentenced, Insomnium or even Nightwish when they have been around for decades. It should not be about marketing but constantly trying to find new bands in the genres you like. And even how easy it is today with last.fm and Spotify that links you to bands to you propably like. Wasn't like that in the 80's and 90's :) Kinda pisses me off than people are so lazy but good that you found them out.

[@lidaf186]

I'm so obsessed with this song! I've been listening this a million times, It's just amazing, the vocals are so clean and strong, the changes are so harmonic. This song hits you right on your miserable heart.

[@R2ROrancid]

Lida Fernández The blend between harsh vocals and cleans is so majestic. Melodies and chord progressions nail it. I wasn't an Amorphis fan, but this song got me into them.

[@Transilvanian90]

Don't be an unpleasant piece of shit. Damn why must Romania have such cunts lol. The song is brilliant. Simply brilliant. It's among the best material from Joutsen-era Amorphis, and that's saying a hell of a lot.

[@addisoncrain6011]

Amorphis is incredble. I've never seen a band go from death metal to melodic death metal with folk elements to progressive metal/rock back to progressive death and nail it every fucking step of the way. It's awesome to me they've been able to put out more mainstream friendly stuff without ruining the integrity of their music like many bands tend to do.

[@ingoledebur2059]

Yes, and they don't have in my opinion a bad album! Sure from the great Karelian isthmus to this was a long way but always worth to go! Cheers from Germany and stay healthy!

[@MetalMystica]

Its official, Bee's are now considered Metal! Great song!

[@dromertv463]

MetalMystica Are you kidding? Bees have always been Metal as fuck. They sting you to death. They are mostly black, and they are noisy. Bees are awesome.

[@Anonymous_Eyeballs]

Bees and whales oh my

[@seijakallinen7156]

A bee gave a kiss of life to an important figure in the glorious Finnish Kalevala-saga - I salute this piece, it is absolutely something you could listen to again and again and again, and build castles in your own mind and let your honey flow...

[@patro81]

"let your honey flow" 💀

[@Hawester]

To clear out the story behind the lyrics: Wikipedia - Lemminäinen: Lemminkäinen or Lemminki is a prominent figure in Finnish mythology. He is one of the Heroes of the Kalevala, where his character is a composite of several separate heroes of oral poetry. He is usually depicted as young and good-looking, with wavy red hair. The original, mythological Lemminkäinen is a shamanistic figure. In the Kalevala, he has been blended together with epic war-heroes Kaukomieli/Kaukamoinen and Ahti Saarelainen. In one myth, he drowns in the river of Tuonela (the underworld) in trying to capture or kill the black swan that lives there as part of an attempt, as Ilmarinen once made, to win a daughter of Louhi as his wife. In a tale somewhat reminiscent of Isis' search for Osiris, Lemminkäinen's mother searches heaven and earth to find her son. Finally, she learns of his fate and asks Ilmarinen to fashion her a rake of copper with which to dredge her son's body from the river of Tuonela. Thus equipped, she descends into the underworld in search of her son. On the banks of the river of the underworld, she rakes up first Lemminkäinen's tunic and shoes, and then, his maimed and broken body. Unrelenting, she continues her work until every piece of Lemminkäinen's body is recovered. Sewing the parts together and offering prayers to the gods, the mother tries to restore Lemminkäinen to life, but while she succeeds in remaking his body, his life is still absent. Then, she entreats a bee to ascend to the halls of the over-god Ukko and fetch from there a drop of honey as ointment that would bring Lemminkäinen back to life. Only with such a potent remedy is the hero finally restored.

For all us ignorant non-Finnish, this should be comment #1

So this is officially the most epic description I ever heard about bees.

[@ahmadyoussif8104]

[@ozzylepunknown551]

And the synth melody is straight from 1 of the children of Bodom songs, realized this with my dad 1 day.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

I always wonder if bands like this give themselves shivers while they're recording their own music and pieces start falling into place. This must be such an adrenaline rush to work on something like this. Incredible.

[@MetalWolf47]

Thats exactly what i think while listen yo their music

[@TheGuitarifier]

Of course there is. That's why bands write music

[@gecclesable]

I really hope they know how sexy they are. Am man. Still see this as sexy. Also a beekeeper so super sexy haha.

[@FrozenMermaid666]

These lyrics are about me (and my protectors aka the kings/princes etc) and so are the lyrics to the song Silver Bride. I am the true/only Queen / Lady / Princess / Star / Goddess etc and I represent The Bee and The Silver Queen and The Silver Bride and The Queen Of Time! My protector Chip has been involved in the creation of most lyrics and movies (he and the ClA included lots of subtle references to me in many songs/movies and made many songs about me) and included 2 of my main symbols aka the Infinity symbol and The Triangle in many videos...

[@FrozenMermaid666]

In the song The Bee, they subtly referenced me as the flowers cold as ice, which is a secret reference to me the only being who reflects flowers and my perfect personalities (each perfect personality represents a different flower) and, this reference was included by Chip -- the song Ice Queen is also about me, and I represent the cold/ice and flowers and many other pure and interesting elements, myself being the most complex being!

When the growls kick in at the chorus. .. Hairs on the back of my neck.

[@daikonoshinkomaki402]

Song gets better every another listening time. Especially like the "They build their castles in the heads of kings" and song is elevated to the next level.

[@lonelystarslibrary9326]

Ikr? I love how you at first have growl + more heavy music, then it switches to light vocals + more symphonic, and then goes growl + symphonic with just hits different

[@neigung]

Tomi is the lord of harsh and clean vocals

[@berserker8884]

The way of Chi then Mikael is god or sth haha

[@neigung]

yeah mikael has a good voice also. I think for the more depressive melancholic sound Mikael is better, but for a more uplifting testosterone pumping sound id go for Tomi

[@neigung]

but having said that if you listen to his voice in Hallatar, Doom metal Band. He takes his voice to a whole new darker and deeper level

[@mister-BH]

Actualy his growls seemed better on the previous album than on this song. And overall I liked his wet, gluttural growl on Eclipse more than the harsher, drier tone he uses now.

[@DB-xz1sb]

Bjorn Strid is the Lord of Harsh and clean Vocals

[@Sabbathman1979]

This is the ultimate combination of two different worlds where Amorphis rules - the sweetness of nightless midsummer nights and the crushing power spiced with epic oriental influences...and Tomi's versatile vocal work seals the perfection!

[@jazzysugar3777]

So true!!!!!

[@Gondor_Sanitation_Dept]

Entire album is a metal masterpiece from start to finish. Unbelievable...

[@thegreatbakchod32]

To those wondering about the lyrics, this is sort of a sequel to their classic 'Silent Waters'. It's a continuation of the same story from the Kalevala, where Lemminkäinen's body is pulled from the river of Tuonela by his mother; the bee essentially allowed the body to be brought back to life, with a drop of sacred honey.

[@elemcsere]

Thanks for this - I couldn't wrap my head around it :)

[@VArsovski10]

If he didn't mention Tuonela I'd have literally thought they're doing an Egypt mythology album and the Bee was actually the Scarab in a sort of artsy approach (similar to how last one was about the Indian/Aztec culture) But damn, that's a good one.. Never realized how rich the storyline in Kalevala was.. Wish there were series of those :)
