I was wondering which strato songs were not written by Tolkki, but written by some1 else in the band?
I heard tomorrow recently, a reall cool song imo, and I realize Jens wrote it? Hrm...

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
Well there is Glory of the World, Why are We Here, Unceratainty, Dream wiht Me, Curtains Are Falling, etc... There are also a lot os lyrics composed by Kotipelto.
Advantage

Keep the Flame, Run Away, and all the others Joostice said. I don't like Kotipelto-composed songs that much, tho. I prefer Jens' ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

It's your opinion...
I like the songs composed by the different members of the band.
I think everyone has his/her own feelings about that a song expresses.
I'd say that Kotipelto has written some great lyrics like Father time, Paradise, Forever free, Black diamond, Eternity, It's a mystery...

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
IMO, both Jens&Koti are very talented songwriters......I hope both these guys develop their gifts to the Max! :headbang:

Sure, Kotipelto writes great lyrics, but as for musicwriting I think Tolkki is waaaaaaaay better.Patricia wrote:It's your opinion...MaFiaBoY wrote:: I don't like Kotipelto-composed songs that much, tho. I prefer Jens'![]()

Yes, Timo Tolkki has written great music, but let the chance and time to Timo Kotipelto for writing more greatmusic.MaFiaBoY wrote: Sure, Kotipelto writes great lyrics, but as for musicwriting I think Tolkki is waaaaaaaay better.

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
There are lots of things like that... The last one I noticed is the riff in Night Time Eclipse (from 4:40) that sounds EXACTLY like the keyboard line in Anthem Of The World.JEngstrom wrote:Doesn't the intro riff for "Glory of the world" sound abit like the intro riff for "Will the sun rise" btw?

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
Tolkki is easily the best composer in Stratovarius, but in my opinion Kotipelto writes better lyrics.
Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
Both of them write great lyrics, Tolkki wrote Forever, Coming Home, Destiny, 4000 Rainy Nights, Phoenix ant lots of other great ones.Mormegil wrote:Tolkki is easily the best composer in Stratovarius, but in my opinion Kotipelto writes better lyrics.

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
Yes, it does... I always felt the same way. My fav intro I admit.JEngstrom wrote:Doesn't the intro riff for "Glory of the world" sound abit like the intro riff for "Will the sun rise" btw?
Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
And the final part of "Mother Gaia" and just after 8:10min of the song "elements"? both parts are very similar, I have to say that those are one of my favourite melodies of stratovarius, but, quite similar!

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
Isn't What Can I Say Kotipelto's song too? It is among the best Stratosongs ever created. I just love it!

she cloaks the world
in impenetrable darkness.
A chill rises
from the soil
and contaminates the air
suddenly...
life has new meaning."

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
I´ve just checked "Intermission" booklet.
Music and lyrics of "What Can I Say" belong to Koti

Re: Non tolkki stratosongs
I think the next album should be a group effort- at least three of the guys are excellent writers I am sure the rest can contribute as well.
SHINE ON!
