Sonata Arctica Deathaura + Lyrics

[@Elementrius]

An absolute fucking masterpiece. All of their long epic songs are the magnum opus of the album. This song is so well put together, with underlying hex chants and the sound of witches cackling in the wind. Very authentic feeling and conveys the sense of dread and chaos that the villagers of the story must be feeling.

[@javiergildeavila4449]

For me .. this is their best album..

[@Replicaate]

I love this song so much. It's just such a bombastic, epic Sonata moment. I think it encapsulates their newer era, with the progressive turns and like 3 little movements in one song. I'm rambling. Point is, awesome song.

[@DaveCanuma]

Wunderbar, soviel Takt und Melodie wechsel, das macht einfach spaß zu hören!

[@arturodeluna5880]

The very best song of Sonata Arctica

[@Mergram77]

The album is so rich and deep that everytime you listen to it you enjoy it in a different way. The complex lyrics, always telling us a beautiful story and the plentiful music...5 out of 5 for me.

[@craziux]

i always find something new every time i listen this song.. what a master piece...

[@TheEarthforge]

I love this song so much. Every time I listen to it, I can almost see the witch hunt in front of my eyes. And the last four lines... they draw tears from my eyes. Someone was paid to say that their torment had a name, and so the woman was brutally alienated and burned to death. Her lover lived on in agony, until he was also accused of witchcraft and murdered. But only through his death could he reach peace, so that they could finally be together "for all eternity".

1:10-1:30- simply amazing. don't know why but love that part

[@teffyaguilar]

I totally agree,this is a great song, new sound, a good evolution, Sonata always do something to impress me, this song is the definition of a new sound, WELL DONE, MY BIG RESPECT FOR POWER METAL . OF COURSE SONATA ARTICA

[@IniquitousZ]

First time I heard this song, I wasn't that crazy about it, but the more I isten to it, the more I see just how amazingly well composed this song is.

[@00oracle00]

Clearly the best song of the album, love every word. I especially love the weird timings, they so complement the spell like structure of the song. please excuse me while I play it again

[@RedRainbowItaly]

@DogMowl : female singer is Johanna Kurkela, she sings also in the track 9 of the album, "No Dream Can Heal A Broken Heart".....

[@Shiek200]

I can never get over just how amazing their lyrics are....

[@fabs8329]

I'd like to see this like a play or a movie xD So perfect song /,,/

[@MaceUA]

My favourite SA song. Both lyrics and music are awesome!

[@Ninjastyle124]

Damn, this song is good! When I discovered Sonata 7 months ago, I was listening to their first songs. The first album I bought, though, was their 2006 Greatest hits... I thought the new album was alright, but this song is up there with their older stuff.

[@Angel_Investor_Music]

This masterpiece is an extremely complex song that can only be created by a true genius.

[@QwopTheFrog]

My absolute favorite song right now!

[@odysseaslag8567]

After unia you need to listen to their albums 500 times for understanding what is going on

[@lianifire]

The first time I heard this track, my thoughts were exactly "Dude, this is so Tim Burton"

[@Golvklut]

OMG, such an amazing song, such an amazing album, I LOVES IT so much!

[@SarothCyngus]

Some may disagree on Arctica's evolution, but I for one think they haven't moved an inch- they are still the GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME.

[@NightAngelStrS]

When they feel the sear, every day's fear... And one night their torches Will find the girl without a name... And the one who has her Love is no more safe... (8) Awesome song, Great SONATA ARCTICA .

[@MrMrFreddy]

One of their best songs. I think that Unia and The Days of Grays are their best works, they truly evolved, and I love it

[@BalderLucifer]

This album and Unia album is by far the best albums of Sonata Arctica, my opinion is that they become better and better everytime they release a new album!

[@MrArla123]

I'm in love with replay button :3

[@AriochStarr]

Can I get in on some of that action? ;¬)

[@MrMrFreddy]

One of my favourite songs. Epic.

[@AnthroTsuneon]

This song has alot of meaning to me.. damnit, now I'm feeling like someone trying to express individuality with other people's song D= Anyway, sonata arctica, keep up the great work

[@danteeep]

couldn't agree more bro (y) thumbs up for this great band !!!

[@TrollingStone404]

amazing! my personal favourite from The days of grays! :D

[@qazacoatl]

finaly the sonata artica are back this it the sonata artica i like!! :D

[@charlesajones77]

I wouldn't have thought that myself, but now that you mention it... yeah it kinda does.

[@xXchidoriPOWERXx]

I was really following the song.. when they sang " I was truly behind it all" i jumped up and had goosebumps cause it sounds like such a pure man singing a song to mourn his lost but it turns out he is not pure at all.. Such a good album :) still have goosebumps XD

[@Learn4Live]

Essa canção é extremamente linda e épica. É uma verdadeira obra prima!

[@concrete_dog]

The last verse is so incredibly beautiful!

[@Sevrion]

Sonata can beast any kind of style of rock.. go from Broken... to Mary Lou... to The Vice... to Deathaura (full) .... to The Last Amazing Grays (Orchestral).... they can pull it all off.. thats why of all the music i listen to... Sonata Arctica is a band that i must hear everyday.

[@moviemaker3000]

This is definitely super epic.

[@SazukaruSetou]

They played this song in NY for their NA release tour. I was flabbergasted when they announced and it sounded as amazing as the recording. They announced it as the first time they played the song live in the universe.

[@McKernel]

Sonata Evolution =O I love it

[@dragon7th3]

Great song from SA, and I have to say that I LOVE HER VOICE !!!. I hope that they'll make more songs with her.

[@xXEraizenXx]

i love this song

[@darmenias]

This is one of their best songs, without a doubt. It kinda reminds of My Dream is but a Drop of Fuel for a Nightmare (I think that's the songs name). It has Sonata's own song structure, very well done.

[@Darkhobe]

Johanna Kurkela sings the girl that sings too, well, at least at "no dream can heal a broken heart" she sings with him ... man, she's awesome

[@charlesajones77]

By far the best song off this album

[@topoblue]

Old sonata keeps being the best

[@Felipe_Vitar]

Bo es brillante este tema es hermosisimo y a la vez es puro metal

[@Felinestance]

This is by far the best Sonata Artica album! In fact its the only one I like! XD

[@doucetragedie]

beautiful

[@GitanoMaltes]

maravillosaa !! :)

[@alexbrito664]

The instrumental at the beginning of the song is very similar to Dimmu Borgir

[@TheBarrett93]

I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town. Come with me, oh, father the heathen is exposed beatiful song..

[@AeonQuasar]

The first ref is so insane good. Did I also mention that the lyrics really is sonata arctica worthy? Awesome metaphors as always.

[@NarkeEmpire]

i agree, best song of the album

[@TheJimiSlayer]

@WishmasterTheDark Yes, they're now Prog, but, do you think this is good or bad? I think it's great, Power Metal is one of the best music genres (or sub genres), but, they sound great in this way, they have a new style, but at the same time, they still have their style, they are still being Sonata Arctica, but, in another way. What do you think about?

[@Cathexis256]

lovely

[@lamentofhorde]

Obviously they did a bit of research while writing about pagans. Five-fold kisses, wheel of the year, skyclad. Makes me love them all the much more.

[@just2000ofme]

This song makes me think of The Nightmare Before Christmas.. Sonata Greatest Band Ever!!!

[@mprizola1]

eeh it's just another... AWESOME SONG OF SONATA ARCTICA!!!!!

[@TheUltim8Apocalypse]

Got to be the most epic fukin chorus. Ever. This coming from a hardcore fan of Symphony X, Pagan's Mind, Pyramaze, Kamelot, Nevermore... The first song I heard from this band, and definitely won't be the last

[@ARAUZ1625]

for me there equal i like things from both of them i love elias sweep picking and i love janis shredding stuff too but i d but jani just a litle higher just because he was the one who got me in to the guitar and well elias makes me wana continue and get better

[@arooks99]

This should be made into a musical! :)

[@XxninomuxX]

1:07 OMG thats So Cool :D!

[@Draedaja]

Ah, I love that song ^__^

[@Ninde1450]

The best fron Johanna in Sonata is exactly not been official member she´s amaizing, but a girl ofiicial member destroy all that`s good on them, but in this album she made a perfect work :)

[@chrdauph]

@Metalguy287 I don't remember where, but I read some interview that said he played. I don't remember anything else

[@goji3755]

"You made me smile cause I was just about to say the same thing..." Awesome, man! How many songs have a plot twist? Or even a plot for that matter?

[@LordKalakukko]

I don't really care much for the new album, but this song is great!

[@Ninde1450]

I guess that is just the style, cause elias have to make something diferent if doesn't want to sound like Jani, and to be honest the solos are part of Jani's Sonata, by me it sounds new and got a feeling of another kind of music, what can I say, just love Sonata!

[@horusdeltron]

Oh cool! :D

[@Awesomus54]

their new sound is amazing sure i prefer their old stuff bt theyll always be my fave band nothing Tony Kakko does will ever dissapoint me

[@moviemaker3000]

@ELANTICRASTO2008 Well, it is all personal opinion. I mean, Sonata's sound is changed DRASTICALLY between Ecliptica and The Days of Grays. If this is the Sonata you like better, that's totally okay, and it's good that it's no shame to you =)

[@zxmarcus]

Remember when I told you how my kin is different in some ways? And how you should not fall in love with someone like me, anyway... Between the lines, people see signs When they feel the sear, every day's fear... and one night their torches find the girl without a name... And the one who has her love is no more safe... and until get my peace I get in shade

[@Awesomus54]

ye that and 5:42 until the start of the solo are my two favorite parts of the songs

[@tinbreza]

drumervara ure right i really miss jani he was the best.. well elias isnt bad but u know when u get used to someone... ahhh

[@nasiela1]

this

[@MrMrFreddy]

@SlayerJes Weel, IMO Unia is their masterpiece. You have to understand it, but if you do you'll be rewarded

[@Asgath]

@THEinternationality Jani put off doing his 3 years of citizen work or 2 years military work as its required to be done by age 30 I think. It was all his own fault

[@TheAleVixen]

Great

[@chrdauph]

@Metalguy287 well, Tony does play WoW :P

[@P0P357UR3]

@Metalguy287 It says it on their website, he wants it to remain private though

[@Dare2bDumb]

@DJayMutiny Within Temptation is absolutely amazing

[@luken1126]

I wish this song to be in some Tim Burton´s movie :D it fits perfectly in my opinion :)

[@Sun2strider]

For me the last part is highlight of the song.

[@Sakura2811]

@ELANTICRASTO2008 Agreed completely.

[@Deathwish42]

@cheesebaker1818 A lot of songs do that, especially classical songs.

[@GilgameshApproves]

brb, creating a death knight...

[@MrPeonzamester]

+Lindemann blood only:)

[@Random8458]

i still like them too but i would wish there would be more songs like fullmoon....

[@Rqoiz]

This is a good album with some experimetna lstuff, but i still think that Reckoning Night is their best album. it has a great balance between SA old and new sounds!

[@Berganon]

I agrees, it's a fuckin'masterpiece! I think you can't compare ancient Power Sonata and the new Symphonic sonata. But fuck! I love them all XD

[@goji3755]

None of the Deathaura posts seem to be working today. Every lyric vid or music video with this song simply won't play. If I skip the first minute or so on this one, it will play the rest of the way, but none of the other videos start. WTH?

[@lolgast77]

@missMmckagan ME TOO! i cannot wait!!!

[@spectrademonica]

@BaalsBrother Also. You like Disgaea AND Sonata Arctica? You're my new friend. 8D

[@LMTR14]

shame they don't play this song live, it's easily their best

[@xeroxephyr]

There aren't any solos in these songs because Tony didn't write them into them. Not because Elias isn't able to play them. Yes, Jani and Elias have different specialties, but they are both very talented guitarists.

[@CursedBrainJuice]

Its a love triangle of sorts, the one man who the witch has fallen in love with, the witch, the second man who grew jealous of the first. the second man marks the witch for what she is, and the first man claims to be a servant of hers after she dies so he can go with her in the after life.

[@Ninde1450]

Jaja! still the best!

[@sacrament48]

nightwish use a few background music, almost all symphonic parts are played by Tuomas on his keyboard..

[@Metalguy287]

@chrdauph how you know that?what server?what race?horde or alliance?lol :)

[@spectrademonica]

Best. Fucking. Band. Ever.
