Wintersun - Time (Reaction) Is this the best Metal composition ever written?

[@dmusiclife5727]

How are you supposed to put into words one the greatest masterpieces ever written composed and performed. This is 💯 one of the greatest pieces of metal music I’ve ever heard/watched by far. The amount of mind blowing guitar riffs in this track alone is ridiculous. This is an Olympic guitar off. Scratch that this is the Metal Music Olympics and they took the F-N GOLD. And the vocalist? Forget it. The versatility, power, range, passion & lyricism delivered in a truly stunning emotional performance leaving you breathless. “See what I did there I’m so proud of myself” Ok, back to reality if you can even place this performance in reality. And the drummer is right there the whole time just absolutely CRUSHING IT every dam hit is so powerful, punchy and right there nailed in the pocket. Top notch skills behind the kit with an unbelievable drum production sound. Speaking of the production I’m not sure who’s behind the production of this performance but give them the gold as well cause the instruments sound was pure perfection. The layers upon layers of tracks on this was mixed brilliantly you can hear every single one crystal clear. Keys/piano, strings, guitars, bass, vocals, drums. A truly unbelievable job. I can’t begin to imagine the hours upon hours maybe even years they put into creating something like this out of nothing that turns into an absolute masterpiece. The amount of work that went into this must’ve been exhausting. But than again the most beautiful works of art come from some of the most stressful strenuous situations. GAME OVER ten fold!

Jaari is a Master at engeneering, doin'a lot alone, is one of Devin Towsend's protégé... Kai, the drummer, and Jukka tour with Nightwish now

[@redstudio4839]

FYI Jari (The singer) had tuberculosis a while ago and lost a portion of one of his lung, so big respect to him even more considering his vocal performances.

[@peetur123]

Well, never seen a reaction channel writing wall of text about a band. So I think you really liked it :D

[@Always-fd7pk]

Amen! 💞

[@ChrisS30097]

You nailed it!

[@zakariajerbouai273]

definetely one of the best pieces ever... many parts of this track are just breathe taking.. simply it reflects everything we admire about metal music.

[@orangeguppie6897]

Best reaction ever to this amazing performance!!!!! Greetings from the Netherlands, bye

[@jimtguitarist]

When the song is too amazing, and brings you tears, and goosebumps, and you feel complete for living on this planet.

[@black4pienus]

It's truly magical. Jari is a treasure. A genius. King of the dark elves! Son of winter and stars!

[@SirChubblesSteen]

This album is honestly one of the best ever made, so good.

[@kivireki]

So happy that you took this masterpiece. Love it! Proud to be finnish metalhead!

[@poppygoodfellow]

I love this song so freakin much. Dammit Jari, you one lung wonder... Awesome reaction you guys!

[@chadmarx7718]

1 and 3/4 lung wonder* ;)

[@tuplaJK]

Masterpiece. Thanks Wintersun. Nothing else to say.

[@muumiveikko]

I love this video, this song gets me every time. It was easy to click patreon button, see you soon with next video 😁Greetings from Finland

[@W4Rx1Sx0V3R]

You have to do Land of Snow and Sorrow next to complete the 3rd songs of this rehearsal, you can literally pick any song by random from their two other albums and it'll be good, Wintersun/Jari is really amazing.

[@Steven-lb4bl]

Ya. Too many people skip this song and it’s goooood!!!

[@ikioma3477]

also loneliness is great

[@motoalchemy]

This is truly a masterpiece

[@MY1BLACKCAT]

this is one of my very favorite songs and i have watched hundred times and never get tired of it, especially this performance

[@black4pienus]

Yes, this one and 'The Forest that Weeps.' So freaking beautiful.

[@seetaami5810]

Great reaction video, guys! This band is truly formidable live. Keep up the good work.

[@Yoshoggutha]

Darkness and Frost is one of the greatest intros of all time. Jaari used to be the vocalist for Ensiferum back in the day. The man is a modern genius.

[@alanbrown7412]

Thank you so much guys for reacting to Time by Wintersun . A brilliant band and song ...You are right about the lyrics...it was written in remembrance of Jari's father.. I can't help but sing along everytime I hear it. Another track to check out is Land of Snow and Sorrow... again just brilliant. Thanks again guys. I really dig your channel. Peace from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️

[@wallywest2360]

Great reaction. This is definitely one of the best songs I've ever heard. The composition is genius, every single person in the band is insanely talented, it just doesn't get any better than this. And on top of all the technical wizardry going on Jari just pours his heart and soul into the lyrics. It's beautiful, powerful, and haunting.

[@black4pienus]

I got to love Wintersun so much in such a short time. Now I'm watching other people blown away by them. Kinda feels like sharing the excitement, since I have no one IRL I can share it with. (sad face).

[@rosswoodland6449]

what a cool song. great composition. I enjoyed this one far more than the last. Great video as always guys. much love

[@RÅNÇIÐ]

Simply one of the most complete songs ever written.

[@Perrrkeles]

One of the greatest piece of music ever written!🤘🤘🇫🇮🇫🇮💪💪. Great reaction, thank you! Greetings from Finland!

[@r.h.7633]

I'm exhausted.

[@AmitSwamy82]

I loved the words...tou tore my heart 😊😊😊❤❤❤

[@miractokgoz3553]

More of Wintersun reaction content pls, keep the great work up guys!

[@oskarstrom4034]

Thanks for checking out the great Wintersun again! You realize that the singer/composer is the same guy from Ensiferum that you like so much, right? There's much more to be discovered from Jari Mäenpää's work. Keep digging and you'll strike gold every time.

[@nervanderi]

Drummer in Nightwish guitar player Teemu in Megadeth at this moment. I just realized this video was released 1 year ago. Hyvää Jussia muistakaa paljon... juoda vettä.

[@m.94]

One of ky favourite bands of all times, insane vocalist

[@juhajyrala9367]

Very nice reaction video. And dame " TIME " greetings from finland. Home of wintersun and Nightwish & many more. Love you guy`s 😍😍🤘🤘

[@marinaa.6140]

I LOVE IT!! Greetings from🇫🇮!

[@tuplaJK]

I absolutely agree with both of you. Super Great band Wintersun, from here Finland!

[@AddyTheBaddy71]

Great Reaction guys to one of the greatest under rated metal bands in the world Jari is a genius

[@wjl2601]

Damn, that drummer, those guitars, exquisite stuff.....and it was fun too, thanks.

[@marvinscampion5961]

Heyyyy 🤗 Great reaction guys . 🤘🤘🤘 Keep rocking n Smiling, keep safe and healthy too 🖤🤟🤟🤟

[@Deathrith]

Soooooo gooooooood in every aspect! This is metal!

[@dissonantpulse]

The water in Finland is different from the rest of the world because the musicians there are in another level

[@MikkoRantalainen]

I would guess that is just the fact that the society will pay for your full education here in Finland even if you choose to be a musician.

[@evvk8865]

Heavy water ?

[@MikkoRantalainen]

@@evvk8865 I wish. Even all the nuclear reactors in Finland run with light water instead of heavy water. So it must be something else but water.

[@acertainsortofperson9743]

Finland leads Europe in terms of metal bands per capita, with an incredible 70.6 metal bands per 100,000 people

[@ilves6664]

Höpö höpö. Same water as everywhere in this planet. But maybe Finlands water is cleaner even spring water

[@vesatolvanen2043]

An absolute masterpiece! A metal symphony with two guitars, bass, drums and vocals.

[@slay8217]

Genuinely appreciate this video! I will now be going on a musical journey with the entire album this song is on!! Thank you!!! ✌🏻💙🤘🏻

[@MikaTarkela]

That final vocal line is so awesome! "And I fade awaaaay, when time fades awaaaay." Fucking brilliant!

[@enterthecronic]

My life is almost complete now 😄

[@scottspears9347]

I have discovered some great music on your channel

[@gadjimuradsuleymanov3504]

Thanks to reaction at this beautiful song

[@DefectivePieceofChalk]

Wintersun is what happens when you combine the sheer musicianship of Nightwish with the raw, unbridled ferocity of Finland's darker metal scene. It's ridiculous how Jari manages to stand out among literal musical virtuosi with a combined experience of damn near a century. Everything he touches turns into gold.

[@lujalainen1]

this go for sure the perfect songs category. i hope somebody use these songs the vikings production in future. thanx to epic reaction again and have wonderful weekend. hopefully they best song loneliness lyric version come also sometimes :)

[@TheGiiant]

It so fantastic that "new" reactions can be made to bands that have been on the internet for over 2 years!! If u have internet access you know about wintersun... what is next... a big suprise to Jinjer hahaha

[@jaroq10]

Great reaction for a great band!

[@chmts6800]

Great reaction! 😀. One impressive song is lyric video " Loneliness" .... Talking about need of therapy... Keep on reacting, it is very entertaining to follow.

[@skrymer6617]

Land of snow and sorrow please!!! It's my favourite song

[@АнтонМихалыч-ы8ш]

Бесподобно, как же мне нравится этот трек, года два уже каждое утро слушаю пока собираюсь на работу

[@Brian-kl1gf]

The bass players technique is so flawless that there's no need to be thrashing..Just chill in the pocket and just do it..Peace from the Northeast..

[@Patralgan]

I understand where you're coming from, but please refrain from calling Finns vikings. At the time when there were vikings, Finland was rather inhabited by shamans. I don't feel calling us vikings is offensive though, just incorrect. Finland is not part of Scandinavia, but in the past decades our culture has become much more Scandinavian rather than Slavic so it's understandable that there's misunderstandings. In any case, an awesome video! I really do love it. In my opinion though, as amazing as this song is, there's still couple of songs which actually go further with the epicness and creativity. One of them Is Eternal Darkness (Autumn). I really wish there were more reaction videos of that song as I have hard time even imagining more majestic pieces of music and I recently made an AI-assisted lyric video of that song and you can find it in my channel (a shameless self-promotion, I know). The other song which I think surpasses "Time" is "Loneliness (Winter)". I simply can't believe one person can come up with such an emotional journey. With the couple of songs Jari Mäenpää has produced, I fully think that 99% of musicians simply make songs, but people like Jari are the true artists.

[@ChrisPage68]

Kai (drums) & Jukka (Bass) are full members of Nightwish. 🤘🔥 Most epic? Nightwish - The Greatest Show On Earth Live from Tampere

[@tuijakarttunen9164]

Well, Finns were never vikings. But this band is awesome. Thank you for the reaction. Please react to Sons of winter and stars from the same Sonic Pump Studio rehearsals. Now that`s a roller coaster ride..

[@JK-zo4px]

This drummer OMG

[@punxsutawneyphil3944]

10:35 Please keep us updated about your therapy. Thanks.

[@metallisika2745]

Regarding the lyrics, my interpretation is that they're about the feeling of running out of time (hence the title). Whether it be a person that has passed, or something you needed to accomplish - it's still time itself that has left you behind. "Oh, another year gone by But nothing has changed in my life And time goes on forever and ever And it waits for no one"

[@ivospazzadeschi4049]

This Song Is magic

[@RonniePeterson]

In a word, yes!

[@marcfischer5235]

Can WE talk about the band's musical skill? 🤣🤣🤣 And Jaari, lead vocalist, lost a quarter of one lung...., 🤣

[@nimfoofoo]

If memory serves me correctly. This singer has half of a lung missing.

[@30110CKs]

If you were wondering about the extra long intro, technically it's a different song. Starts with Darkness and Frost, then changes to Time a minute of so in.

[@chadmarx7718]

Time comes in when the distorted guitars come in

[@Bonehead777]

The stuff they create is top notch, but they do it soooo slowly. 5 years since their last album already.

[@wjl2601]

Half of them is busy with keeping Nightwish alive.

[@Neocoolzero]

@@wjl2601 might as well, Jari doesn't do anything anymore

[@wjl2601]

@@Neocoolzero a pity, great musician!

[@MikaTarkela]

They have a lot of things to do besides Wintersun. For example Teemu has several projects and does online teaching, gigs and studio work.

[@chadmarx7718]

I joined the wintersun fan group on facebook. It makes my day when everyone shits on jari for releasing anything and everything that isnt an album

[@Brian-kl1gf]

NICE...'NUFF SAID...✌️🤘

[@ariviitanen6044]

Masterpiece !!

[@felicitydarhk2818]

best metal composition ever written, well that be a very very diffucult choice, and it's a personal one for everyone... i can think of around 50 songs or so which should be candidates for that and still forget many more.... you know when you love music as you do too when something hits it hits right... couple of examples, and maybe you wanna react to some of those if you like, Rainbow Stargazer ( 1976 album version), Opeth- Blackwater Park, Void Of Silence-The Grave of Civilization( most overlooked album of all, lyrics more relevant than ever !) , Judas Priest-Genocide ( Unleashed in the East 1979 version), Candlemass-King of The Grey Islands ( haven't seen that one anywhere !), Solitude Aeturnus-Tomorrows Dead, Devin Townsend-Death of Music ( royal albert hall performance!) Judas Priest-Screaming for Vengeance ( the memphis 1982 live video, on of the best metal singing in human history, Halford is truly inhuman on that !! ) Triptykon-Shatter ( probably candidate for best music video ever!!) hope you guys can check them out !!

[@crazyjoedavola7493]

YES, it is the best composition ever written.

[@marcell6915]

Watching Wintersun burns 500 calories

[@K4rvanaama]

Kai Hahto is one of the best Drummers! today he plays in Night wish. Finland FTW!

[@maximillian7450]

Had to have the whole album 🤘🤘🤘

[@Aceod]

Yes, it is the best metal composition ever written.

[@christophercox8927]

Can we talk about that bass solo

[@Melodic-Metal]

Wintersun: seasons album is a amazing in my opinion especially summer,spring but the the emotion of winter brings me tears as it’s sooo personal for Jari as he dedicated it to his father who passed into the eternal realm ….Wintersun never release anything they are not totally happy with

[@cranboogie]

🌀🌀🌀🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏 I’ll keep asking you to witness Be’lakor

[@Doppeldropper]

...next the "Sons of winter and stars", "Forest that weeps" and "Loneliness" 🤗?

[@ricardoolivo5244]

congrats, you just found the best song in existence, in the history of the universe. not sure if thats good or bad, but its a fact. this song is humanity's magnum opus.

[@andrewferguson-hannah6915]

That was all written and composed by the lead singer/guitarist. Jari Mäenpää (exceopt drums Kai Hahto)

[@gredulous2444]

If I was you I would still checkout these 2 songs from them: "Eternal Darkness (Autumn)" and "Loneliness" :'D. Why? Because the epic journey doesn't end there yet ;)!

[@napolipartenope5809]

Winter Madness by Wintersun too should be the next

[@andrewhutchinson8025]

I don't think there's any videos to it but do yourself a favour and listen to battle against time or sadness and hate from wintersuns first album they are unbelievable and epic especially sadness and hate. Probably one of the most talented bands from that amazing metal country that is Finland and greetings from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 UK 🇬🇧🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍

[@Spectre67Productions]

Nightwish gets a lot of love and credit is the symphonic metal scene. while I agree that is well deserved, Jari and Wintersun deserve a ton of credit for continuing the genre. After all, if Wintersun was not so influential, Nightwish would not have taken Kai and Jukka into their band.

[@stefanantfolk3114]

You both now the drummer and a man on the bass is in the band nightwish now

[@robertbrooks9805]

Jari is the Bethooven of our time. No one can match his compositions. Say what you will about his criwdfunding antics, but the dude is pure genius.
