Stratovarius - Black Diamond

This is "Black Diamond" by Stratovarius!
Enjoy! ^_^

[@blackcitadel37]

It doesn't matter how many albums they record. The Timo Tolkki era was magical.

[@metal9lover9maniac]

One of the best power metal songs and bands ever.

[@zegundos617metal]

La mejor cancion de power metal de toda la historia....claro q si... black diamond el himno del power metal en general...respeto al grande STRATOVARIUS!!!

[@jhlee928]

Again I see you standing there watching me Your gaze, those eyes are tantalizing openly Inviting me to get close to you Can't help myself There's fascination in the air I try to fight this strong sensation But there's no chance to escape from this temptation Feels like I've known you before Repeating phrases But I yearn for something more I know I can't stay by your side forever But I know I won't forget your beauty My black diamond

Que música! que banda! é uma honra ouvir stratovarius.. Brasil!

[@xXxWWEFanMichellexXx]

This song will never get boring :) one of my favourite songs by them. It's constantly on repeat :)

[@josephdelcorsano9209]

It's a shame what happened to Timo Tolki. I hope he gets his life together! God bless him! 🙏

[@KK10155]

What happened to him bro?

[@saarapollonen8138]

He's bipolar

[@moisessalcido1283]

This is the song that sparked my power metal journey. I recommend the albums Visions and Episode by Stratovarius which are one of the best power albums of all time.

[@ehhigna9412]

moises salcido omg me too... When i first heard this song, I was fucking blown away... I think I cried from the sheer force of emotion i felt from hearing this the first time in high school

[@estusf1ask]

For me it was Kiss of Judas off Visions. I had been struggling to find a metal genre that checked all the boxes, then a homie showed me Strat and my epic adventure began. Now years later, i have this incredible band to thank for some of the best music ive ever heard

[@kathycampbell3599]

Why have I not heard of this band before????? Awesome reminds me of a mixture, Trans Siberian Orchestra meets Iron Maiden. FUCKING LOVE IT !!!

[@duartevgc2114]

+Dave Campbell I'm thiking the same here. Great band indeed!

[@dandolorapordoquier]

Me too. The last year i disvored this band. You know the magical power of internet. I was reading Gantz manga and i heard hunting high and low. Just amazing

[@davidsnakedoe7322]

people can say what they want about Timo Tolkki. I don't like the music he does today, but in the past, he wrote absolute masterpieces. This song is the best power metal song of all times, to me.

Allí estás, una vez más mirándome, de pie con tu mirada tentadora, haces que quiera acercarme a ti, es inevitable, tu encanto está en el aire. He intentado dejar este fuerte sentimiento, pero no puedo escapar de este tormento. Siento que te conozco de antes, siempre lo digo, pero yo anhelo algo más...

[@travellerseko]

I don't know the reason but something push me to make a comment whenever I see this song anywhere on KZbin:) one of the best melodies in power metal.

[@artokauppinen9051]

Istuin kerran bussissa ja puhelimeni soi. Soittoäänenä oli juurikin tämä Black Diamond. Vieressä istuva nuori naishenkilö hapuili myös puhelinta. Ilmeni, että myös hänellä oli sama soittoääni. Olisi varmaan pitänyt ottaa numero ylös :)

One of the greatest intros I've ever listened to.

[@boaskivisk]

beautiful, i don't have words to explain what a felt

[@HotRocker]

Did you know that Timo Kotipelto has said that these lyrics were inspired by his cat? "Again I see you standing there watching me". That's what cats do.

[@JP_Wu]

Geisha Rampage Haha, really? xd when did he declare that?

[@HotRocker]

Juan Pablo Wärthon Wu I remember it from an interview a long time ago and there is also a finnish wikipedia article about black diamond that says " Kappaleen sanoitusten voi tulkita käsittelevän mahdotonta rakkaussuhdetta, vaikkakin Kotipelto on kertonut sanoitusten syntyneen hänen ajatellessaan kissaansa" which translates to: " Lyrics of the song can be interpreted as being about an impossible love affair, although Kotipelto has said that he came up with the lyrics while he was thinking about his pet cat". I thought it was quite funny! It also makes the whole song funnier when you think about it like that.

[@JP_Wu]

Geisha Rampage Haha yeah I know right! looks pretty funny, maybe his cat was even black and that's why he says "my black diamond", hehe, thanks for the trivia.

[@Killjoy45]

+Cheer Girl Rampage I can imagine him going like: You are doing that again? Can you stop? Any chance you could stop that? Its really disturbing you know. Please.... You're not going stop til I write a song about you will you? FINE I F*CKING DO IT!!! Piece of hhrrmm......
