That's @Luiz when he becomes a rockstar. He'll just stop the gig and read some of his favorite poetry to the audience. :green:

They( Ville and Migé) know each other since childhood. Imagine to be in a band for over 20 years with your best friend. They are both nuts and funny in their own way. :sara:

I guess now they might think they're too old for these stunts. :blehga:

HIM_-_Dark_Light.jpg

Dark Light was the first Finnish album to sell gold in the United States, meaning it has sold over 500,000 copies in the U.S., and 1,500,000 copies worldwide. The album peaked at number 18 on the Billboard 200. It was rated #9 in Metal Hammer's albums of the decade.

---------

"Behind the Crimson Door" is the sixth track on Dark Light. The song was performed through out the 2005 and 2006 tours in support of the album. Ville once said the song was about a--l s-x, but then retracted his statement stating that it was merely a joke. He then mentioned in concert on November 9th, 2005 that the song was inspired by the latest Hellraiser film Hellraiser: Deader (also known as Hellraiser VII: Deader).

Between 2:44 to 2:58 you can hear Ville in Finnish reciting the poem "Kadotettu", by Timo K. Mukka. The first and second stanzas are spoken in the left and right channels which are played back dually." 

 

 

Meille ei tule vapautta

vaikka pääsisimme selleistä ulos

vaikka häkkejä ei olisi

vaikka jalkaraudat muuttuisivat ruusukkeiksi

me emme vapaudu

elleivät ajatuksemme virtaa syyttävinä

ja omatunto paljasta syyllisiä

sisällämme, sieluissamme, sydämissä

 

kun kyyneleet valuvat silmistä

ja kaikkialta keihäät sinut lävistävät

muuri murtuu

seinä sortuu

kaikki kahleet putoavat

sydämessä soi laulu

rajaton vapaus siivillensä nousee

 

English translation:

 

We will not get freedom

even if we got out of the cells

even though there were no cages

even if the fetters turned into rosettes

we will not be freed

unless our thoughts flow blaming

and the conscience reveal the guilty ones

inside us – in our souls – in our hearts

 

When tears fall down (our) eyes

and all over the spears are piercing you

the wall breaks

the wall (of the room) collapses

all the chains fall down

our heart is singing

infinite freedom spreads its wings

》 "Venus (In Our Blood)" has the line "Venus denies your seven towers," referring to another Greek myth portraying hell as seven towers protruding from dark waters. 《

》 Several of the songs include Easter eggs. In the exclusive bonus track "Venus (In Our Blood)," there is a little girl's voice speaking at the beginning, and in reverse the little girl says "Where are we going, Daddy?" 《

 

 

Intro backwards :eww:
