Babylon is from the Episode Album.

You don´t look like a great fan if you don´t know Babylon is in Episode, anyway, there are a lot of amaing chorus, powerfuls like No Turning Back, melancolics like Before the Winter but I think the most Orgasmic is the Father Time chorus.

oh yes no turning back kicks ass...and hands of time too.....my favorite is the against the wind chorus....and i´m no great strato fan, just a normal fan that listens to the band a little time ago and wow... it´s POWERFUL

Forever Free \m/

Destiny, then Father Time.

Awaken the Giant, and Forever Free (The live version at Visions of Europe gives me the creeps, I was like, "WOW", when I first listened to it

)

Posted: **Sun Dec 19, 2004 1:49 pm**

I Walk To My Own Song, No Turning Back, Against The Wind, Forever Free.. and lots more. IMO almost every single stratosong has a great, great chorus.

Posted: **Sun Dec 19, 2004 3:33 pm**

hmmmm... in terms of Lyrics... the best ones to me are: Forever and Alpha & Omega, I guess.
Now, in terms of the ones that that make you wanna jump... Hunting high and low.
A Million Light Years Away is a favourite.

Posted: **Sun Dec 19, 2004 5:01 pm**

A Million Light Years Away will always hold a special place in my heart, because it was the first Strato song I ever heard...

Posted: **Sun Dec 19, 2004 5:50 pm**

I like the Chorus from Glory Of The World, i've listening to it lately and it's just great, And my fav. is the one from Elements.

My favorite chorus, best stratosong (and also first strato-song I ever heard) is "Against the wind"!!!! Also the lyrics are soooo encouraging!!

Yeah, this one rocks too. One I also like very much is Galaxies.

too bad dreamspace isnt as good as the other albuns...

You're joking, right? :shake:

Dreamspce is one of the best StratoAlbums, IMO. And, it is Tolkki at his best--he has a great, expressive voice&I like his singing very much. All of the songs on Dreamspace are very good.

But, its a free world&you have a right to your opinion. *sigh*

yes milady, thats MY opinion...kotipelto have a better voice to sing the strato stuff, even the tolkki stuff, in MY opinion

i think the best strato stuff is on kotipelto albuns and i think tolkki should take only the guitars and some backing vocals (another PERSONAL opinion) and what about you milady?

Frankly, I was hoping that if Koti does not return to Strato, TT would take the reign as Frontman again! I love to hear him sing! :luv3: LOTS of fans would like that! But, as of now, I guess his health is not up to that, unfortunately.

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 8:44 pm**

Tolkki singing is not due to his health, but his own will to sing again.
And I very much doubt he'll ever again be the lead vocalist for Stratovarius. He is already playing guitar and writing the songs and he has said that he just isn't up for both singing and playing guitar at the same time.

I wonder if he would be able to sing all those songs sung by TK (sometimws really high), so I think some pre-arrangements should be done. Or live tracklist would be based on first three albums, which could be quite interesting.
But let's do not consider this now, when something is happening, and don't put a jinx on it.
Return to the most succesful line-up (TT, TK, JK, JJ & JM) is the best solution, the best what they can do now.

And at least in Finland(on an interview), Tolkki said that the lineup you mentioned is the only possible STRATOVARIUS line-up.

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 8:58 pm**

i think....if you do many things ate same time, you ´ll not do all the things 100% right.....strato has grown up since 1989 because each one of them specialize themselves in just one function...same case at various bands by this times...but tolkki ROCKS anyway

Posted: **Wed Dec 22, 2004 11:00 pm**

I think Tolkki sings well ^_^"

but Stratovarius has been marked with Koti... and i believe that's how it will be in the end...
yep... and it must be hard playing ans singing at the same time...!

i really hope the best for all of them ^_^"

Kisses

Posted: **Thu Dec 23, 2004 11:36 am**

On the drums it's insane. Once I tried singing and playing the drums on Find Your Own Voice at the same time, it was real fun to watch it (but not to hear)

I can't even learn how to step on the pedals and hit at the plates correctly

Pray for me on that one.
