Apocalyptica

I have heard this band long time ago but never actually paid any attention to them, not until my sister showed them to me again, with this song...


This is a masterpiece...

Ps. The band consists of four members, classically trained cellists; Eicca Toppinen, Paavo Lötjönen, and Perttu Kivilaakso and drummer Mikko Sirén. They are Finnish band metal from Helsinki, formed in 1993, the year I was born on, sigh. The band HAS NO vocalist. They only borrow singer from another band if THEY FEEL LIKE IT, pfft.

Here's the lyrics;

[Ville]
I'm giving up the ghost of love
And a shadow is cast on devotion

[Lauri]
She is the one that I adore
Queen of my silent suffocation

[Both]
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

[Ville]
Bittersweet

[Lauri]
I won't give up
I'm possessed by her

[Ville]
I'm bearing a cross
She's turned into my curse

[Both]
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

[Lauri]
Bittersweet
I want you

[Ville]
Oh how I wanted you

[Lauri]
And I need you

[Ville]
Oh how I needed you

[Both]
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

This is the combination of Low Voice and High Voice. For me though, the song represents the raw love and passionate love. It's like a duet between desperation and obsession. All in all, this song is fucking awesome.
