Sonata Arctica My Selene

[@qwerty93C]

"Reality cuts deep, would you bleed with me?" Is seriously the most beautiful sentence I've ever heard in a song.

[@TocsTheWanderer]

This song deserves more love

[@reeilona]

True, this is incredible

[@laudatosiadastra1218]

It hits deep in the soul. So beautiful!

[@charlesd9145]

I always used to listen to Sonata ALL the time when i was younger, I just recently started again, I forgot how Gorgeous their songs are! This song, reminds me of my wife so much! I would listen to this song quite a bit before we actually got together. We met online playing World of Warcraft, So she was my dream. Best 9 years of my life! We did everything together, even worked together. She passed away 2 months ago, Now I Listen to this song again, Longing to have her in my dreams and the time, when two souls will again, entwine.

[@macarenalahaye6368]

Charles D you breake my heart u.u so sweet.

[@goatmagnum]

My man, it almost feels like your post was carefully constructed to torment me. The love of my life and I were also together for 9 years and where we didn't meet on WoW, we played it together a lot. I came here to reminisce of her. I still keep her side of the bed ready for her and still wear our ring.

[@diegoraphaelldossantos556]

Only the best people listen to Sonata Arctica... You were so lucky to find a girl like your wife!!!

[@akatsuma11]

Dude i hope you to get better... You have to, for your Selene. 💪

[@scourgedarkpaw9949]

My dearest condolences

[@umbles7007]

"This is my final call, my evenfall, drowning into time, i become the night, by the light of new days, ill fade away" Man this part always gives me chills

[@ismaelclark3202]

Umbles for real...every time

[@TonkyelSonato]

The drums, the bass, the guitars, THE KEYBOARD!!! It's not only power, but magic.

[@BinkusTheTrinkus]

Endymion was a mortal in Greek mythology who had a relationship with the Moon goddess Selene.

[@chiquidelarosa]

I know this comment is 7 years old but thank you

[@BinkusTheTrinkus]

@@chiquidelarosa You're very welcome... Wow! I completely forgot I made this comment when I was 14 years old. Hard to believe I've been listening to this band for over 7 years, but thanks for replying!

[@eldomenico7]

Good to know, as my daughters 2nd name is selene...

[@phreebs]

Yous is a good human for explaining this. Thank you and I hope you're doing great

[@reeilona]

THANK YOU so much

[@DesAstora]

I also think that they got A+'s in poetry class. These guys write the best songs ever

[@dogboy0912]

Though my musical taste has changed greatly over these past nearly 10 years, I will never get tired of Sonata Arctica.

[@ClaraBeack]

This song is so special to so many people and in so many ways... Masterpiece 💜 always out of sight but never out of mind

[@ThisMortalCoil64]

This isn't Sonata's best song ever. This is THE best song ever

[@Slow1337ex]

words can be so gorgeous, Jesus. The lyrics are as beautiful as they are painful, in a way. Loneliness really makes someone do and dream about things that sometimes can be shameful. We all know what this does to some people. Some just lose it and do insane shit. But loneliness doesn't make you a bad person. It hurts, it alienates you from relationships and connections. Makes you feel that being loved is just that, a dream. Shameful dreams.

[@andrewbonacci4902]

A good friend of mine who I lost touch with loved this band. I just found out from someone else that she passed away. I just keep listening to these songs as they remind me of who she was.

[@petrivuorinen2483]

My favorite from Sonata!!👍👍👍

[@veedubpunk]

This is my first time ever hearing this and holy shit so much yes

[@elgranlugus7267]

Beatiful poetry in beautiful music.

[@santothegreat111]

in my opinion this song isn't just about his love compared with selene and endymion, he's trying to create a poetry but he haven't the inspiration so he indentified a girl as a muse but he's lonely and he doesn't succeded to write anything and "the book is still empty as him" this is an incredible song full of meanings sorry for my english but I'm italian, I hope my message arrived

[@NikoGanadara]

This song is ecxcactly how i feel right now. Its one of the best songs i have ever heard, simply amazing.

[@FallenAngel2346]

This song is gorgeous.

[@Raiden6277]

I once found my Selene (not her name). Too bad I didn't realize it sooner, or try to meet with her when I had the chance. It's too late now, and I didn't even get to tell her how I feel. Now I wait and hope to see her in my dreams.

[@harleyalexander5398]

I am Arealia, the op of this song and you and I are one in the same and I still think of her 17 years later.

[@arlopaulson8282]

Good song.

[@sadisticnerm]

Nov 2022, still gives me chills ❤️

[@rvbrules]

one of the best songs i have ever heard..i can have it on repeat all day. great lyrics, great sound, awesome solo..perfect.

[@castlevaniamaniac]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. It doesn't touch me as much as Shamandalie does, but still I love it very much. Whenever I feel like listening to these kind of beautiful songs I listen to certain songs by Iron Maiden and Sonata Arctica, both great bands with great feeling in their music.

[@Elric_of_Melnibone]

I just love Sonata Arctica.

[@Arctagon]

Sonata Arctica's lyrics are so ingenious we don't even realize how ingenious they really are before we interpret them correctly. This is one of my favourite songs by Sonata Arctica, and will remain so for a long time. The melody combined with the lyrics and Tony's singing, makes this song so incredibly beautiful it's almost not to believe. This song makes me tremble everytime, and the solo is amongst the greatest; it's just so ... epic (the best word I could come to think of as of now).

[@FREEZER892001]

What can i say. U gotta respect such songs because they're based on history/myths and they're meaningful. Great song, great singer, great lyrics, 5 starts.

[@Elementrius]

Most beautiful lyrics I've ever seen

[@kilvasify]

+Brocktimus Prime I started understanding it more after i got dumped, worth XD

[@TheFuriator]

Yes

[@uberpoa]

Its a shame they never played it live

[@chicoguarro7258]

Mw Full Only with Cain's Offering.

[@valtenLbOz1495]

What's your profile picture?

[@s.ap.9204]

For being honest I used to like a lot this song mainly because that's my name (I was on nine cloud knowing Sonata Arctica composed it lol).. But now that has passed several years and I'm "re-discovering" through here, I'm loving it! The lyrics and the rythm are just awesome.. Merci, Sonata Arctica

[@localistmagic641]

It was the one song that Jani wrote all by himself.

[@CarlosGutierrez-ix5ft]

De las mejores canciones de Sonata, no solo aplicado a la mitologia sino a la vida cotidiana. Cuantas personas en el mundo habra esperando a su "Selene" y mueren con la esperanza. Killer Song :)

[@capitandeltaairsofter]

Yo...

[@camaleonsacor1618]

Masterpiece. Masterpiece. Masterpiece. Masterpiece.

[@Yksinainensusi1]

Have to say it again: most amazing Sonata Arctica lyrics ever. Or easily in Top 3

[@krloz21leyva]

+NachoFast My top 5: 5: Shamandalie 4: Mary lou 3: Shy 2: Tallullah 1: My Selene

[@Rairiky]

Letter to Dana and Wolf&Raven have to be there

[@k313vr4]

[@JtrainMedia]

These lyrics............I can't even describe how incredibly well written they are. Such a masterpiece.

[@ryanalexander8999]

I was panicking and wondering what was going on but then I saw [SOLO] on the screen and felt a sudden rush of understanding and relief.

[@dunndudebemelol]

Beatiful song over a beatiful story

[@FireGod525]

Clicked on this song by accident....two minutes into it I was like.."oh my god my new favourite band"

I'm always kept in a cycle of forgetting and remembering this music...

[@achillesamusic]

Man, that's me too, they are timeless :3

[@mgbmthscreamo]

in the break of a new dawn, my hope is forlorn. shadows will fade, but I'm always in the shade, without you...

[@jimcrocelives3256]

Reality cuts deep. Would you bleed with me?

[@NatsuDragneelful]

[@jaronbeaver8277]

My favorite part of the song.

[@dagugoso]

"Would you let me be your Endymion?" The story which is based this song, just kicks ass!

[@pipanakakka]

a powermetal love song without the words "heart", "love" or "fire"? This is insane! Jani sure nailed it!

[@alexhesse84]

Pure poetry, I love this song

[@randomname3835]

É uma música linda com uma letra linda, literalmente.

[@kakashi-senpai1110]

É difícil encontrar brasileiros que gostam dessa música '-'

[@williamtorbett8729]

2020 missing old sonata, miss jani...

[@WertzuHun]

Jani was the real shit for Sonata! I have stopped listening to them after he left..

[@SpiritusVulpex]

[@Sehmetys]

,,Silent I lie with smile on my face, Appearance deceives and the silence betrays...''' Def my Sonata Arctica favorite. No matter how many times I hear it, I always end up deeply touched by the heartbreaking power bursting from this song- pure perfection.

[@zofiadwojacka3192]

[@XaliitoX]

[@freakbro5]

SO EPIC!!!! Awsome song.

[@mazanakaUA]

[@rainmaker11]

such a haunting melodi... and not to mention the overwhelmingly darkend lyrics... this song reminds me of a certain girl who is as beautiful as this song... long live sonata! one of the best musical quintets of all time.

[@miguelbenitezquintero7019]

The best dedication ever

[@joselokow]

buenisimos me encantan

[@seellllly]

E' veramente dolce, bellissimo pezzo molto coinvolgente...mi ha catturato l'anima...E pensare che io porto questo bellissimo nome eppure non conoscevo i Sonata Arctica, molte grazie a chi l'ha postato per avermi dato questa bella opportunità.

[@ZacrsgameYT]

[@shama286]

[@Than1337]

Amazing Song... for a long time my favorite song... a mirror of my soul in a painfull time of my life...

[@BaMbOlinaPuCcioSaH]

[@rvbrules]

i posted a comment a year ago that said i could have this song on repeat all day and it's oneof the best songs i've ever heard. i still feel that way

[@alonwest722]

best song ever! combination of music and lyrics is amazing

[@jackmorris4695]

So relatable. when there's a girl you cant talk to, only interact with in a dream, and the saddness when you realise it's just your imagination. Damn ...

[@arkman2237]

the pain of realizing you'll never be with her .... this is why. "my selene" its one of my favorite songs of sonata arctica

[@rarefox]

+Jack Morris Thats the problem with your waifus

[@RicardoMartinez-ty5hf]

Que hermosa música por siempre sonata

[@RobCorvette]

The solo of the song is terrific!

[@josedeleon1923]

This reminds me of the last girl i fell in love with. I could never establish a good conversation(I'm very shy, she is too), then one night i had a dream in wich we were together walking on a field. Then i wrote a poem to her(the first and only one i have ever written in my life) but it was too late.

[@QuackSus]

f

[@scourgedarkpaw9949]

That wonderful but what happened can you please tell me

[@mattsepan6274]

F

[@alexfabiannunez7539]

F is so relatable :')

[@zekeiwa5837]

Lmao this is the most high school thing I've ever read

[@Oliver2Jarvis]

Jani rocks! Sonata Arctica ain't gonna be the same without him

[@SapirFairy]

I totally agree with the one beneath, the more i listen to them the more i fall inlove with them and espicially with the singer's voice i love the way he sings it's so touching

[@voltaspeeder17]

Man, this is a really nice song! One of their best for sure!

[@huntershutup]

every night i wait for my sweet selene... beautiful lyrics... i love how metal has so many diverse lyrics... some are bloody and brutal and some are the most romantic i've ever heard... i don't get it how can people say that metal isn't romatinc or emotional or something... metal is one of the most emotional oriented music there is... probably that's why i love it so much :)

[@dgracer20]

My favorite song ever and of course my favorite group.

[@hktrautmann]

Nice, heard this song for the first time in the most matching moment.

[@xMarrilliamsx]

By far one of the best Sonata Arctica songs out there! IMO anyway. :')

[@182santosh]

love this song so much

[@MestariDuff]

That song is just so great, I love it and I can't stop listenning to it. At 4:44 when the vocals gets soooo intense, I'm just melting down each and everytime I listen to that song.

[@RipNTear666]

[@gtajjx78]

[@vengeancymine87]

[@Bleachlalo]

The most beautiful song ever

[@Niobesnuppa]

LOL, I've heard this song hundreds of times and I'm still not sick of it. xD

[@purifyweirdsoul]

Great song. Thanks for putting the lyrics up with the music.

[@emanueletrolli]

love the keyboard solo so beautiful the whole song

[@VikingFyre]

“No longer able to bear the waking world of hopeless endeavors and lost hope, he stares into the silver blade, it’s edge stained only so with the beads of his scarlet blood. He tilts his head back, tears rolling down his cheek as he feels his lifeblood drain and heart slow, yet in his eyes were not the lost abyss of one empty. In that moment, he was there again, in a place that was and was not, beyond the world man knows where the sky is eternal twilight of shining stars and celestial wonder. And as he fades, he smiles. For there, awaiting him was everything that mattered, that maiden whose name was the light of the moon and whose kiss was the joy of home and heart. And with his last earthly breath, he softly says her name: Selene.”

[@ryfrz]

Beautiful

[@SuperWillie900]

love it. the music with the lyrics is like depressing by making me happy at the same time, just like the lyrics...just like all SA songs...and that is the BEST way to make a song. in other words (or word): beautiful!!!!

[@naruting00]

I fell in love with sonata arctica is the best power metal band i love it i never going to be tired or sick of this song cause these type of music carry me to the 6 sense the power metal posses xD
