[Zarkaylia]

*cracks knuckles* I know this shit. Within Temptation write blatantly obvious stories in their earlier albums with classical Mary-Sue themes. Stories of Ice queens, the sacrificing parent for the child, the hero that dies and who's life essence saves the rest... Etc.

Kamelot outright questions humanity and everything with it except in their very latest album, simply cause those albums not about Faust were written when one songwriter was depressed.


NIGHTWISH... got Tuomas Holopainen, the King of vague poetry.

You're gonna get more from me (cause I love this and music) unless anyone else speaks up so I'll try to toss in more genres...


Meadows of Heaven by Nightwish

This is a very musical song of theirs, all very warm and happystuffs with bit melancholy to it.

The Poet and the Pendulum (Orchestral) by Nightwish
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNtg2dYHwcY
This is also a very musical song but the exact damn opposite, this is a very dark song. I picked the orchestral version simply cause it's not as apparent without lyrics and still keeps the new age-ish parts as well as those with more tension intact, making it more of a classical piece or a movie theme. Original version just in case http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UI8jC6FoV8k

Money Made by AC/DC

YES this IS a change of genre. This is BLUES ROCK/CLASSIC ROCK. And it rocks... It's so damn smooth... x3

A Brand New Day by Lisa Miskovsky

An old pop song I used to like. Swedish artist.

Angeline by Groove Coverage

Cover your ears if you can't stand cheesy dance pop.

Deathaura (Orchestral to not scare the shit out of your cat) by Sonata Arctica
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ehq7jwvC5E4
Sonata Arctica are generally bit more complicated metal and lyrics. I've picked this one as it's very very musical.
