You guys are just sooo narrow-mided. Just because YOU like Father Time doesn't mean everyone thinks the same. I'm quite sure you hate 030366 while I like it very much. Just opinions, you know...

I can't think of any Strato-song that I dislike. Maybe Eagleheart or Hunting High And Low. Or maybe the similarities between the two... if there had just been one song like that i wouldn't have minded.

Really ppl´s different opinions sounds sometimes funny: You just wrote "...I'm quite sure you hate 030366 while I like it very much. Just opinions, you know...", that should also be the "official" opinion about Full Moon too, but certainly there is ppl who doesn´t hate that so much. Like me, it´s not a good song at all but I think for example Thin Ice and A Drop in the Ocean are more horrible than that one. :roll:

As a matter of fact, only the first minute of it or so is REALLY horrible, the rest is quite OK. But since about 99% of the people here think it's bad, I thought NeonVomit forgot that one. But if he says "no, I like Full Moon" that's OK.

I have some "extra" question:

Now list some albums track's here (like Destiny). Then "drop out"
the worst track. Finally there is the winner, album's best track.
Understand? No?
Ok, here is example:


So, Destiny's track list:

Destiny
S.O.S
No Turning Back
4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel
Years Go By
Playing with Fire
Venus in the Morning
Anthem of the World
Cold Winter Nights
Dream with Me


Round 1.

Destiny
S.O.S
No Turning Back
4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel
Years Go By
Playing with Fire
Venus in the Morning
Anthem of the World
Cold Winter Nights


Round 2.

Destiny
S.O.S
No Turning Back
4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel
Years Go By
Playing with Fire
Venus in the Morning

Cold Winter Nights


Round 3.

Destiny
S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel
Years Go By
Playing with Fire
Venus in the Morning

Cold Winter Nights


Round 4.

Destiny
S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel

Playing with Fire
Venus in the Morning

Cold Winter Nights


Round 5.

Destiny
S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel

Playing with Fire


Cold Winter Nights


Round 6.

Destiny
S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights
Rebel




Cold Winter Nights


Round 7.

Destiny
S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights





Cold Winter Nights


Round 8.



S.O.S

4000 Rainy Nights





Cold Winter Nights


Round 9.




4000 Rainy Nights





Cold Winter Nights


Round 10.










Cold Winter Nights


So the winner is Cold Winter Nights in my opinion. I hope that you understand...

Höh, it will be tooooooooooooooooooooo long listings, which are so often "officially" forbidden. Also your new idea looks too much like a some kinda game. :twak:
Anyway, IMHO the worst track on Destiny is No Turning Back, Cold Winter Nights is extremely good, but as it´s a bonus, the best one is 4000 Rainy Nights. Otherwise I don´t like the whole album much.

But you still understand my idea...? And yes, it's some kind of game. And second yes, it's quite long...

And the reason because I choose Destiny is 'cause that album's track are easy to... eh... sort. Prkl.

I don't hate 030366, in fact I love it. I actually hate people who think they know my tastes... they don't get me, they're always "quite sure" about what I like and feel, and it seems they're following me... :nervous:

Give me a break.

I understand you Timo. You have composed those songs (perhaps) like all the others as "a child" like I remember you wrote some time ago, and also coz you have liked to do songs. But they all are quite different than the most Strato-style songs and perhaps that is the reason why so many ppl dislike those three songs. Which is manner you may don´t like. :?: Or sth... bläärh.

For me only Thin Ice sounds horrible, Full Moon isn´t good but my opinion is quite neutral, and I like 030366, though it doesn´t sound Strato much.

Full Moon has only its first minute which is REALLY horrible, the rest is quite OK. I used to dislike Thin Ice too but now I got used to it and I like it quite much. 030366 is just great :D

Am I the only one who likes Thin Ice? (excluding MaFiaBoY)

By the way, it seems like most of you despise Fright Night because it's poor sound quality. It doesn't bother me, and I think Fright Night is one of my favourite albums. You should pay attention to the songs, not to the quality.

And Full Moon is not so terrible. It's just... different. Well, maybe too different...

I wish I could listen to it, but I can't find it anywhere :/ So I've downloaded a couple of songs : both instrumentals, which are awesome, and Night Screamer which is quite good. I like early Strato too, Twilight Time is really a great album, too bad it's so much underrated.

I can't find Fright Night anywhere either.

I do love Twilight Time though, Hands of Time is an awsome song, sends shivers up my spine. Out Of The Shadows kicks ass as well.

Here in finland you still can find Fright Night easily. So, you might try to order it from here. :wink:

Also in my opinion Twilight Time is very good, I think it´s better than Dreamspace, because there are no weird songs. (Madness Strikes at Midnight is not too strange :P ) and Tolkki sings perfectly. I think it´s the best album after Episode and Visions.

Madness Strikes At Midnight is actually my favourite on the album. So I think I like "weird" songs :D

Fright Night is awesome! To me it's the best from the Tolkki-on-vocals era. And I wish they play the tittle track in this new tour. Man, it ROCKS!!!!

Right. I think too that Twilight Time is better than Dreamspace. Weird and horrible songs like Full Moon, Thin Ice and Atlantis are songs that I just can't listen...
