I think the first time was in 2003 in Tavastia during Your Sweet 666

from 2:50

 

this is second time I hear it in Poison Girl intro, in 2005 (but I'm not sure if he changed it up a bit, can you tell me what you hear?) 

 

and I don't know if he did it again later in some other concert, they had so many!

I'm sure he remembers it and it would be so cool if it's one of their first demos. I want to hear it all, it sounds so good. :giveup: 

 

 

It does sound so good and he did change it a little before Poison Girl. I will have to listen harder later. I have to join humanity today and later, lol. It sounds like "in the words of Camelot" or "in the words of Babylon" and once " You and Me" and "indeed we are" and "Am I getting hard/hot"...in the Poison Girl video. Wow!

I'm in mood for listening to the ''Tears On Tape'' album.. such an autumn, blue beauty of music! ♥:flutter:

"..Every part of me wants to believe
There's a darkness we need to feel
For the brightest light to be seen and felt inside
Only because of you.."

They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be.

A horrific and barbaric punishment imposed upon traitors pursuant to ancient common law: partial hanging, disembowelling and cutting of body into quarters.

Oh, wow :ohno: 

"Let's hold these hearts for one another
It's worth all wounds, it must be
If I'm drawn and quartered
It's only for you
Shall we hold that thought now and forever
In all shades of blue"

:cry:

I love Ville's lyrics so so so much..

Don't you guys think it's interesting how full of metaphors his writing was in Screamworks and how clear and bold it seemed in Tears On Tape? It's like the whole Screamworks album was 
encrypted in a way, just for one person to understand.. It sounds so special.. :flutter:

She probably means that it hurts the guys' female fan's lives [ hers], to imagine them kissing others THAN women. lol. Speak for yourself woman!

I would think that it would draw even more people in, even these days, when it's not such an androgynous trend, but it's more of an open-minded world than even back then. HIM fans have seen these pictures of the kissing, I have seen it written about and mentioned, all around the internet.

I am sure that Ville is singing, "Woe To Babylon". It is a reference of the Bible and Revelation 18 - Lament Over Fallen Babylon and about all's adultery with HER, that makes sense too, with his getting hard and You and Me and the time is NOW and the song Poison Girl. He just ties it all up in those two songs. Your Sweet 666 is very fitting as well with it.

Awesome~

I love songs like this. I must hear it!

@Sister you're amazing :flutter: it's so interesting to anąlyze his lyrics and find all these references.

Dying @  "am I getting hard" :rip:

 

 

I was wondering for a long time what is going on with his arm on this pic lmao, is that a vein? Shadow? It looks so weird.

That looks like a vein that just looks bigger in the light from being made so bright from the photos contrast of black and white. He has been working out, right? I have really veiny arms, not quite like Madonna's though. lol.

I love to a--lyze lyrics, Thank You for the compliment.

Maybe it is an early song from those demos, but I wonder, I feel like that bit of lyrics goes with the new concert tour shirt and stage backdrop. What if that stuff represents what Ville is writing now and we get this song reworked, as he says that he often does when the time and song is right, it seems very fitting, to me. What do you think?

 I think that those mystery lyircs go with this too:

It is quite witchy~

OMG, THAT vein must be what that site and crazy fan were referring to, you know, the contract and satellite that is used by Ville's team to brainwash and destroy lives, the Human Dignity Crime. lol

Tomorrow should be a good day~

What do you guys prefer, Screamworks or Tears On Tape, full albums?

For me, depends on the mood, maybe Screamworks because of the 80s sound, the epic screams :giveup: plus all 13 songs in acoustic version, what more could we ask for? :cryga: 

Tears on Tape is a great album too, with cassette tape sound in the beginning and end, all the interludes, very nostalgic. Hearts At War sounds so good live. 

 

I just love all of their work.

You missed the winter and it followed you back home 
Where sun kissed the crimson footsteps in the melting snow 
We are doing our best to disown the golden mean 
By disacts of cruelty in the name of beauty to be free

The acoustic funeral for love in limbo 
We're dancing with tags on our toes 
I saved my last breath for your window 
To write you this song for the acoustic funeral 

On the verge of a vow to kill all reason locking that door 
To a nightmare within a nightmare we are bound to adore 
Let the pleasure in the shape of a heart lie to me 
And finally confirm all fears to be so real 
Be so real 

The acoustic funeral for love in limbo 
We're dancing with tags on our toes 
I saved my last breath for your window 
To write you this song for the acoustic funeral 

Underneath the ice so thin I am turning blue (I'm turning blue) 
The one last thing I know to be real is the shadow of you 
Killing love with a kiss 

The acoustic funeral for love in limbo 
We're dancing with tags on our toes 
I saved my last breath for your window 
To write you this song 

The acoustic funeral for love in limbo 
(the acoustic funeral for love in limbo) 
We're dancing with tags on our toes 
(we're dancing with tags on our toes) 
I saved my last breath for your window 
To write you this song for the acoustic funeral 

Lest we have to fall 
For the acoustic funeral 

Killing love with a kiss
