Just watched this Jörg interview for the first time, and i find it interesting. I think now we can put to rest the doubts that Jörg didnt like Elysium.
On this interview he says its brilliant album and also on this interview he explauns the real reason he left the band. He also says that Stratovarius is bigger than individuals in it.
