That would really be cool and if they said in the opening speech that "Everyone should know that we have a song beginning with the name Black..." And then they would start playing Black Night instead of the Diamond-song. :roll:

Wow, that's cool. Same thing in Twilight Time (song). The say about Twilight and all think that means Twilight Symphony, but they starts to play Twilight Time (could be interest to hear Koti's "version")

Can Tolkki even sing so good than before (90's)? I haven't hear Hymn to Life so I don't know how he can sing today.

Ok, last night i saw the best opening song.

I went to Yngwie Malmsteen at the Hammersmith Apollo. The first song was Rising Force. Talk about a crazy buildup...
"Beneath the freezing sky arrives Winter's Verge..."

I think "Hunting High and Low" is the perfect opener - much better then let's say Speed of Light. I don't know, it just begins like I want a concert to begin. Keyboard start - so people can scream a bit, and then a nice fast and catchy tune to get you addicted right from the start.

Agreed. Great opening song. In fact I don't care what you guys say about Elements albums, this song is fucking rocking great!
