EDGUY - Behind the Gates to Midnight World

[@pepejulianonziema8427]

Such a underrated song. I just realized how amazing this song is

[@Ghergy]

one of the best Edguy´s ever !!!!

[@michaelketley876]

The guitar playing between 4 and 5 minutes is very reminiscent of Karl Groom of Threshold.....brilliant.

[@jakobfel2]

Yeah, it does, because most people sit and hate on Edguy and Tobi, merely because they can't tolerate a different sound. They have horse blinders on - they think metal must be fast, fast, fast and über-heavy, when truly, metal is kind of like the modern-day version of Beethoven and Richard Wagner - music that still takes talent and feeling to write.

[@CaptainYoul]

feel the same as you, was a huge Edguy fan back in their power metal days, now its a cross between avantasia and heavy metal

[@klistenpoty1189]

Born alone, tiny soul Unknown looks to face from all around Caught in space and time A new apparel, different name We got another stowaway In life and who's to blame What a beautiful day Given birth to be a shame like you Just another you Just another fool in the game Welcome to this place Starry eyes by the night Come the first ray of light You won't find anymore What you could have seen before Starry eyes you'll deny You could read till you were Leaving the gates to midnight world behind you Wash away the innocence On this boiling road to Calvary Bloodstains on the streets Blistering me you scourge yourself Crucify that stowaway in life That we can blame Oh what a day Given birth to be a shame like you He's me and he is you Just another fool in the game Welcome to this place Starry eyes by the night Come the first ray of light You won't find anymore What you could have seen before Starry eyes you'll deny You could read till you were Leaving the gates to midnight world behind you [Solo] Eyes - a face in the window Through the looking glass, staring at you Eyes - and they seem to follow As relenting gestures they follow your every move You wanna run But you can't move away from what you see In rigour you're frozen with open eyes Lame - is it one of those dreams in which your body's numb While you can't turn a blind eye to fear Running away, running away from his own reflection Crossing the line, watching the primeval revelation Running away, running away from the pain of insight No running away, running away It is going to fetch you You just go ahead and close your eyes Starry eyes by the night Come the first ray of light You won't find anymore What you could have seen before Starry eyes you'll deny You could read till you were Leaving the gates to midnight world behind you

Seriously this new album is just insane!! The best album by Edguy right after tinitus sanctus deffeantly! Seems like Tobias have gone out of controll....this is not only gold, this is music they play in heaven

[@jakobfel2]

Their core sound is still there... The only album that I can say mostly went away from their core sound was Rocket Ride, yet it was still a great experimental album. Tinnitus Sanctus and Age of the Joker are still straight power metal. Change is necessary, for certain.

[@KapybaryJsouSuper]

One of my most favourite songs.Really really great :)

[@greenmilefrt]

Best vocals on the album

[@DanAndLewOfficial]

Edguy. Nailed.

[@TheRedAnthem]

metal was always experimental. The best bands always took risks or their music got locked into a predictable formula, where all the songs were the same. This song shows how much Edguy understands song composition & vocals. Good music has a changing pattern of sound, carefully arranged, many metal bands turn up the volume and throw composition out the album. This is the Edguy that wrote, Tears Of a Mandrake. Still Edguy.

*Beautiful comment... yes.*

[@Allexandra04]

my favorite song!!! the new album is insane!!!! pure perfection! \m/

[@maririth]

Excelente Edguy :D

[@jakobfel2]

Well, honestly, this track of all of the AOTJ songs is probably the most like traditional melodic power metal. Same with Nobody's Hero, Arcane Guild, Robin Hood, and even Rock of Cashel. In my opinion, it's the perfect balance between traditional power metal and the new sound. ;)

[@symphony929]

@chris9380 Edguy still has many power metal elements in their music and a few pure power metal tracks like Lords of arcaneguild, breathe or speedhoven. This new sound is really awesome

[@poprocks62]

Best tune on AotJ :D

[@randomdubbys]

Early Avantasia was Power metal and Edguy is Power/heavy metal now:)

[@NarrowJester91]

Iron Maiden. Nailed.

[@damiensdarkcorner7924]

I don't know you, but for me this song it's Melodic Doom metal

[@jakobfel2]

Avantasia and Edguy are both heavy metal. Avantasia is melodic/symphonic metal, and Edguy is power metal through and through.

[@Turissss]

Does matter?

[@PastequeNotoire]

Fucking mother riff.
