When a woman loves a man and the man is horny they make they're love complete.

I thought a pelican drop me by my parents' place

Oh wait this isn't the Spam section..

Let's continue the topic, does anyone else listen to Land of the Free only because of the middle part?

[AGAG]

Nope. I used to watch gayporn just because of the middle part though

You mean the bit with the "Hey, hey"? It's a cool song , the chorus is particularly catchy!

What songs d'ya think they'll play at the upcoming DVD shooting? Obviously they'd have a lot of TDoG and Unia (hopefully Deathaura ). I'd like to see some of the old Silence/Ecliptica songs though (Weballergy, False News Travel Fast)

Oh, WPBO would be awesome too

[HinatAArcticA]

I just would like to say that this topic is in the "Other Discussions in English" section, not in SPAM.

About the DVD, they've stated that they will play some songs they've never played befoere, and some others that have not been on the setlist for a few years.

It will be very interesting, and I'm sure we will have a setlist for that concert in less than a month

[Kosmo]

Songs that haven't been played live ever...

Have they played The Harvest ever? Or The Vice?

[hiro23]

Icecab:they are going well, I'm learning "the impossible dream" from Man of La Mancha, my ultimate goal is to sing something really high like "Lady" from Styx, I have another lesson tomorrow.

I still have yet to see SA in concert, it's one on my list of many bands to see.

+1, I still regret not having seen them the time they were here

[Kosmo]

I live in Finland, Sonata Arctica has been my favourite band for years, and i have not seen them live.

[ggonza43]

...And I call myself an "unlucky son of a bitch", but you get the golden prize

[HinatAArcticA]

Have they played The Harvest ever?

They did... there was a nice video on YouTube and Elias did a great job on the solo but now I can't find it ):

[hiro23]

ggonza43:you and I should make it a priority to see them this year

[Fellow]

I've never heard of them playing 'Ain`t Your Fairytale' live, so hopefully that'll be on there! Also Wildfire has never been played, but I get the feeling it wouldn't be on the DVD. The Vice would be cool too

[hiro23]

Have they ever played "false news travel fast"?

[Fellow]

Hmm.. not that I know of, but part of it has been included in medleys that the band has performed.

Have they ever played "false news travel fast"?

Yeah it is on the first live album.

The official forum has a list that has been cut and cut and now they have realised almost every songs has been played live once.

[Kosmo]

How about Zeroes? That might be fun.

''Dancing on the borderline, dancing on the borderline!''

[hiro23]

it's funny cause I used to hate that song but now it's one of the many songs I find myself listening to a lot from that album.

That and "the last amazing grays"

[AAAAAAAAAA]

it's funny cause I used to hate that song

Icecar provocation is in poor taste

[hiro23]

A10:

[Kosmo]

Zeroes was actually the first song i heard from TDoG and i couldn't help but feel what i felt the first time i listened to Unia again...

Wich was a mixture of WTF, interest, sadness and last but not least anger.

But like Hiro, now Zeroes is actually rather good..Funny thing this music..

[AGAG]

TDoG

[Kosmo]

I hate dogs....

[AGAG]

BUT WHY?

[Rebel]

I'm listening to Unia again, and as always, I fucking love it. My hatred of TDOG has nothing to do with the sound, or the development or changing in the band, but the fact remains the music has no teeth and the melodies suck.

[hiro23]

That's rather harsh don't you think? I personally thought the songs were rather catchy

[icecab21]

he thinks its a "fact" the melodies "suck". he also rated deep purple over bach and mozart as artists in that thread

[Kosmo]

Compared to Unia TDoG is boring as all hell, but if i don't compare it to anything else it's rather good.

Unia is just so...Complex and quirky, i love it.

Silly me forgot about that. It would be interesting to hear a new live version though 'cause Tony's voice live has improved loads over the years.

Unia is more complex, aggressive and deeper than TDoG, but I feel there are certain moods where TDoG is just perfect . I'm really liking "No dream can heal...", "The Truth is Out There" and "Deathaura" at the moment
