Well, first ones that came my mind are Black Diamond, A Million Light Years Away, Eagleheart music videos...

Btw, if they do a music video of United, I'm not going to watch it.

Eagleheart. They are just playing and the background is totally silly. So it´s just a boring video. :?

That's bad, that's really bad! Maybe we should form an emegency commitee for this case. He's not going to watch it! :shock: :wink:

I like the video of Eagleheart. Stratovarius looks so energetic and young and pop and other stupid words.

I think exactly the same. They should have made a clip of Learning to Fly anyway...

United is one of the songs that I dislike the most on the new album, so no thanks.

United would be a nice choice as a next video of Strato, but i think also to Fight!!! or Back To Madness, why not after all? :)

I think the video should represent a song which they also play live. At least still they have never played Back to madness live and it´s quite difficult, a bit prog song too. So, I guess they wouldn´t make a video of that song. :?

Yes, that song is too long, and not a real hit for common listeners. United is catchier, it fits to a video clip more in my opinion.

If I'm not wrong "United" lasts about 7 minutes and "Back To Madness" 7 minutes and some more seconds... So there isn't a very huge difference in the duration of these songs..

But like Pete said above, United is catchier and easier than the progressive and weird Back to Madness. Some may even say United is too simply and cheesy as a song. (It´s not my opinion though.)

And anyway, there's an editted version of United on the Maniac Dance simple, which is exactly 5:28 long. That is good for a clip imho.

I agree, it could be more interesting, but Back to Madness isn't maybe good choice for music video (for big crowds, I mean). United is weak song and I don't want to see it...

In my opinion, Strato shouldn't come out with a new video, l prefer a new video from the new album. :D

A Stratovarius abuela.

No abuela, es STRATOVARIUS, es un grupo.

i'm pretty sure they won't make another video. they're about to start the songwriting phase for the new album yet, so..
But a video for "Fight!!!" would be nice, for sure.

Nope, they will start composing the songs for the new album in the end of the year. Till then they have some projects to do. Koti's solo album, Tolkki's rock opera, the DVD etc.

Yeah, that was what i meant. They have no time for any new video, and anyway, it would be too late yet..

A live version wouldn't be too hard to make. There's the one on the upcoming DVD.

Usually making a video needs a released single too, and as long as there isn´t coming a new Strato-single, there won´t come a video too. So, I second the upper posts.
However, as I think I´ve said before a video of United would have been quite nice to see...
