Stratovarius

Voici un groupe de métal finlandais que j'ai découvert il y a un peu plus de 4ans. Je les ai découvert un peu par hasard en allant à un magasin et en réalité, c'est la pochette du disque qui m'a plu ici (C'est bête mais regardez toutes les pochettes des Cds de métal, elles sont plutôt belles

).
Je me suis donc dit: "et bien pour une fois, tu vas changer ton style musical et tu vas essayer le métal". A cette époque, j'étais plutôt tournée rap/r'n'b.
En rentrant chez moi, je suis allée chercher des morceaux et ça a été le coup de foudre

!!!! Un rythme entraînant, une belle voix et des textes tout simplement sublimes !!!

Forever
Album : Episode (1996)
Paroles et Musique ; Timo Tolkki

I stand alone in the darkness
The winter of my life came so fast
Memories go back to my childhood
To days I still recall

Oh how happy I was then
There was no sorrow there was no pain
Walking through the green fields
Sunshine in my eyes

I'm still there everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
Would you wait for me forever?

I'm still there everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
Would you wait for me forever?
Would you wait for me forever?
Will you wait for me forever?

Cette chanson m'a fait et me fera toujours pleuré...Snif...

Drop In The Ocean
Album : Elements Pt.1
Paroles et Musique : Timo Tolkki

easons of madness fill my mind
A lunar poet trying to find
A conception of what life is all about
Seconds pass me by I greet the minutes
A the hours roll them over
And years will drown the days and months

We are one, we are strangers in the night
Searching for our way to the light
Like an echo of unseen fantasies
That you'll never be able to catch

A drop in the ocean we're sailing upon
The angels of heaven are singing this song
Just souls in the corner of our universe
It seems that it's all we are
A drop in the ocean

Planet caravans sail on and on
In cosmic harmony they go
Within embrace of universal womb
Is it cosmic madness, harmony?
I ask you in my agony
As time won't heal my wounds it makes me numb

We are one, we are strangers in the night
Searching for our way to the light
Like an echo of unseen fantasies
That you'll never be able to catch

A drop in the ocean we're sailing upon
The angels of heaven are singing this song
Just souls in the corner of our universe
It seems that it's all we are

A drop in the ocean we're sailing upon
The angels of heaven are singing this song
Just souls in the corner of our universe
It seems that it's all we are
A drop in the ocean

Celle-ci est magnifique

Voilà, j'espère que vous aurez l'occasion d'écouter ce super groupe qui mérite d'être connu!!!

une petite dont le titre m'inspire beaucoup

I Walk To My Own Song

I'm walking the streets and i hear what you say
Advicing me tilling me how to play
I know your name it's called Mr.Mean
One thing i've learned you don't know beans

High i fly
I touch the sky
Far above the frozen hearts
You can't kill my dreams
You can't kill my spirit
I was born to be free

I walk to my own song
Every day the power grows stronger in me
I walk to my own song
Head up proud
I'm the master of my own destiny

You think you know what is better for me
Holding me lectures of how i should be
Shrugging my shoulders i leave you behind
Anyway i look at it you are blind

une autre qui exprime peut etre ce que je voudrais etre ... enfin j'espere j'ai pas encore lu les paroles en entier...

Eagleheart

All through the night he is lying awake
Wond'ring how much more can he take
Watching the walls where shadows dance
Drifting away into a trance.

And his eyes are blazing with fire

Dreams burnt to ashes so many times
Highest of mountains, still he climbs
Ready to fly cause he just can't stay
Flame burning brighter with every day

And his eyes are blazing with fire
Longinng for the deepest desire

Heart of an eagle
He flies through the rainbow
Into a new world and finds the sun
Spreading his wings above all the sorrows
The glory of Eagleheart

Fever is burning in his veins
Determined with courage breaking the chains
Back against the wall under blood red skies
Prepared to fight until he dies.

oui c'est vraiment comme ca que je veux etre et que j'espere etre....

Aaahh terrible cette chanson Eagleheart !!! L'une des premières que j'ai écouté et qui m'a fait adopté Stratovarius !!!!
Une que j'affectionne tout particulièrement:

Alpha And Omega

I am the earth and sky
I am the low and high
I am the snowflake in the winter evening
I am the birth and death
I am your final breath
I am the one that gave you life and freedom
Choosing your own way

Everything you've ever known
Every seed that you have sown
Came from me i made you
My creation is supreme
This is all me perfect dream
No mistakes in God's great perfect cosmic play

I am the Alpha I am the Omega
I am the beginning and the end of time
I am the Alpha I am the Omega
My whole creation stands before me tonight

I am the dark and light
I am the day and night
I am the mirage
I am the echo
I am the fear and anger
I am a familiar stranger
I am the shadow i m a star that guides you
Until the end of time.

aller une autre qui correspond exactement a mon etat d'esprit a cette heure...

Will My Soul Ever Rest In Peace?

I've been searching for an oasis
In the desert for so long
In my weakness trying
To pretend I'm strong

I've been holding on
To things that I have left behind
I've been scared and lonely
I'm crippled inside

Bathed my soul in the starlight
Healed my wounds in the sun
Screamed my pain to the forest
Asking the question why?

Will there come a time for me when I find peace of mind
Will I always have this feeling like I'm last in the line
I will climb up the mountain and light up the candle and ask:
"Will my soul ever rest in peace?"

I've been washed in pain
Haunted by the ghosts of years ago
They won't leave me be
They keep coming back for more

Will there come a time for me when I find peace of mind
Will I always have this feeling like I'm last in the line
I will climb up the mountain and light up the candle and ask:
"Will my soul ever rest in peace?"

My crippled soul is yearning to be free

Will there come a time for me when I find peace of mind
Will I always have this feeling like I'm last in the line
I will climb up the mountain and light up the candle and ask:
"Will my soul ever rest in peace?"
