I will go to many Nigthwish concerts
Since when did we have this cover art?
@@TerminatorZXYSince 2017 and TFS campaign
Give us a reason to support you, and we will.
An album every 10 years doesnt cut it.
Dear live version, it will finally be time to say goodbye, after all these years
lol yeah FINALLY
But it will never be forgotten
The TIME has come... Finally!
not yet. Must wait until August
I can't comprehend how insane the studio version of this song will be. It'll burn away all of the space and time!
Absolutely insane that the album is finally finished! Can't wait to hear this song in its full studio glory
Came here to say this!
We all came here
We all came.
@@danielalvarado6449 that’s what she said
@@wfjara exactly! 🤣
We will all listen to the studio version of this song with the ones that didn't make it this far in our hearts...
The fact that I saw this live in Helsinki in 2013 and thought I'd be hearing the studio version within a year or two. LMAO
Jari sure takes his TIME
A decade later lmao
maybe next Time (II) ... xD
💀💀💀
I remember the exact moment I saw Time 1 dropped on their website and it said Time 2 in 2013...I didn't realize they meant 2013 years from then.
Jari: concerned about perfection of the sound
Me: about to be nostalgic for happily listening to the live version for god knows how many years
Jari: concerned about quality and what nots.
Us: here, somewhat happily listening poorly recorded live version of The Way of The Fire
I feel like Jari is concerned with anything but releasing new music by this point. This band is one of the biggest what ifs ever in metal and music in general. Such a shame, but I really don't think we will ever see a full album from wintersun anymore. The members mostly moved on to other stuff cause... Jari is unwilling to do anything with the band and the incredible music he composed.
Yea, he released that djent thingy a couple months ago but even that is seemingly programmed tracks plus his guitar. I have no hope anymore. Oh well, at least the old songs are there to listen to.
@@hyde4004Time to wake up from the nightmare of never having a Wintersun album ever again

@@hyde4004 I'm so glad this aged like milk.
@@JackOfHarts96 As am I
I can't believe it man. After all this time we'll finally get to hear the studio version.
Until the exact release date is announced, I'm going to assume there's going to be another crowdfunding campaign or something lol... Besides, if I remember correctly, at some point Mäenpää said that he's going to release (some of) the other albums he's working on before Time II. Of course I hope to be proven wrong when he's going to post some more info next week :D
@@I_L2878 Jukka replied in comments of his facebook post that Time II is ready to go and is releasing very soon, we'll see the release plans on monday, so I'm convinced that Time II is the next Wintersun album
@@I_L2878 Nah, a good chunk of his fandom has already given up completely on him, delaying Time II for another few years after announcing it being completed would be complete suicide. Jari's not an idiot.
@@I_L2878 He's been pretty straightforward with it, saying that we will be able to pre-order it and get it in the late summer. Looks like the expectations are solid, only thing left is for him to follow through with this
@@I_L2878 aug 30
Time 2 is 100% now! The time has come!
I’m so excited, I can’t wait!
Gonna get ready to pre-order in about half a month! TIME never seemed to pass so quickly 🤣
The time...2
Time II.... Years waiting for a studio version of this amazing song...
I'm pretty convinced I'll cry when I hear the studio version.
@@WintersunExtrasme too, absolutely
I'll cry when it's gonna get announced
The Way Of The Fire is amazing, but I think Storm is going to be my favorite Wintersun song (tied with SOWAS and Eternal Darkness)
@@WintersunExtras bro I feel the same way. I know this upload was from forever, but god damn there has never been a song that has spoken to me in the way that Fire has
I'm so hyped. I thought this day would never come.
A little over 2 months left to go and the wait will be over! Thank you Jari!
Best WS song, can't wait for it.
This song is so good it's stupid. The scale of greatness isn't enough for this.
Thats sound for eternity . Forever ❤
Now that we know how the studio version sounds like, it will just absolutely destroy us in sheer majestic epicness
Hard to believe this was 5 and a half years ago already!
I'm so glad that this is the official cover art for the album. Couldn't be happier about that.
The hype is real guys! Finally we made it to this point
After 11 years, we'll finally be able to hear the studio version of this song
This year is the year of celebration
I wish there was a video of me aging waiting for New Wintersun content. By the time The Forest Sessions came out I already moved on to other genres. Somehow I’m excited after hearing this. Kari don’t let this be your swan song.
It won't be, but honestly I wouldn't mind if it was because to me this song is pretty much the pinnacle of what I want from music. Maybe Jari is able to top this somehow, but that would be a miracle.
Time II finisheeeed 🎊 🎉 I’ve already goosebumps 🥹
Here after the Time 2 announcement. So excited to hear the studio version of this
This song has the signature sound of both the self-titled debut album and the Time I album to it.
Yes, it reminds me of Winter Madness, but on steroids
so you all came here to listen to way of the fire, after Jari released preview for TIME II ?:D
time ii will break the internet
There's a lyrics that I found below another video. Of course it isn't official lyrics but it seems correct.
It was made by someone named "Joonas Kinnari", so you can thank to him later.
.
.
Fire the oldest one, the force in the beginning of time.
Show me your face and your real size, reveal the secrets of fading time.
Grant us all the wisdom and strenght, as the riddles I have seen from the dying day.
-Untill the fire will burn all the memories away.
The greatest one, light the path I have chosen.
Lead me away from the strange riddles, hide me away from the treacherous shadows.
Nothing will last forever, not even this fire I have inside.
Fire burns wide in the mountains, it bursts inside my heart!
It burns a way to all the new space and time, where the essence
of a new world will rise!
Fire the oldest one!
Burns wild inside my frozen heart.
Fire the greatest one!
I will never understand the way of the fire.
Fire the oldest one!
Has lighted my chosen path so dark.
Fire!
You can never change the way of the fire!
The flames in the darkness reaching the stars.
??????????????????????? dancing in to the sky.
Mesmerized by the blaze??????? dust in my face.
?????????????? the feeling that time will take.
I will now leave this world behind, I see the skies so calm and I can't live anymore.
In the coldness of winter night, I will find my way somehow. Beoynd the stars a new world awaits me now.
In the fields of snow, we walk, the endless path of stars. And we reach the horizon. We reach the horizon!
Come follow me, to eternal stars, I'll guide you away from the dark. In the coldness of winter night,
we will find our way, to the place of the fire's light. Time will fade these dreams. I can almost reach,
but it's still so far away. The fire will guide when it's time to leave this world behind.
With it I'll leave this world behind!
Fire the oldest one!
Burns wild inside my frozen heart.
Fire the greatest one!
I will never understand the way of the fire!
Joonas is a TOP LAD. Love that dude. His fan mixes of TFS are better than Jari's ! He needs to study and take up mixing engineering tbh!!!!!! He'd be GREAT with continued practice. He clearly has an ear for it.
"Fire the oldest one"? sounds like ageism.
I have the feeling that Jari repeats the same words and termes on his lyrics over and over again. It worked for me on the debut album but it feels kinda repetitive and uninspiring since the concept is the same all through the years.
@@tonigonzaleznunez5579 Yes, i've noticed that too, Wintersun: Death, life, winter, Time, loneliness, Time: time duh, life, loneliness, stars, stars.The forest seasons: the same but with nature added. But anyway i like it, maybe Jari has some problems with existencialism and his lyrics are all the same, and i sometims feel right this way, existencialism, like in a bucle from the same, death, life, loneliness, time, and stars (por cierto, viendo tu nombre creo que hablas español tambien jaja)
@@tonigonzaleznunez5579while some themes reoccur there's still plenty of unique paths explored in these lyrics. I don't see a big issue here.
Time 2 is finally done!
I can't believe we're FINALLY getting this absolute banger in all its studio version glory. We've waited way too long for this!
Great version. I really can't wait for the day when we will be able to listen to the studio version of this masterpiece.
This song is just pure ecstasy in musical form all the way through. I'll never get enough of it. It's the love of my life.
7:52 goosebumps and a single tear runs down my cold face :(
Right? I can't even begin to describe that moment. Hope, beauty, ardour, determination, so many feelings and emotions packed into one short midtro.
I'm getting goosies again
@@Rafael-fo9sp 5 months and we finally can hear the Jari-approved studio version of this masterpiece *.*
The moment I hear a studio version of this, I will feel a number of emotions when this finally releases. I really hope they drop this as a single at least before the initial release. I’ve been waiting for a studio version of this for 14 years. I really hope this album lives up to the hype.
The moment i listen to that first solo in studio version and that first chorus, my life is gonna change. This album will be life changing
The ending is one of the best things I ever heard in metal. Ridiculously epic.
The middle part is even more incredible imho. The part from the first solo to the end of the second solo. It's just constant buildup, full of surprises and it's all just so incredibly satisfying journey.
2022. Mark my words.
Is it because of all the 2's, or because it just makes sense?
@@WintersunExtras Release date: 2nd of February ;-)
@@TheUltimateBAN 22nd* at 22:22:22
2022? I think your're being optimistic tbh. In an interview (which I cannot find anymore - sorry) I read that it took Jari (and the other guys) years to assemble all of the perks for the Seasons-Crowdfunding. So I'd assume that the second CF is propably still two or three years away. And even if they succeed in gathering up enough money to build the studio, the studio still has to be build in the first place (which could take even more time). And even if the studio is finally there and ready for use, Time II still isn't released. Also I'm pretty sure Jari will be reworking Time I one more time to match the production quality of Time II since both of the albums were originally intended to be released as one album with a duration of like 90 minutes I think.
So my guess is more like 2024 or even 2025. Given that the next CF raises enough money to reach the needed amount for the studio. Sometimes I hope that some rich bastard will just give them the money so we don't have to wait any longer! :D
@@Julian-wx9cn next CF is summer 2020, next album release autumn 2020.
7:41 till the end, this is where the magical world, the surreal atmosphere and the tears begin
right after the most amazing guitar solo ever
Yes, that!! It's so emotional. "I'm getting goosies again", said Jari once. Well, shit...
It is incredible what these guys can do with a single chord progression. They could repeat it indefinitely changing the arrangements a little bit here, then a little bit there, and so on. This is true talent. I look forward to listening to the studio version of this powerful and emotional song some day...
This may be the closest we'll ever hear to a studio version.
Im afraid that you might be right. Its so unfortunate that Jari is a lazy bum and doesnt do shit...
I honestly dont think he can sing half the songs anymore
Luckily aged like milk!
There is this thing in music which I call "joy" and it is way too rare. When an artist is able to create something with utmost joy and without limits, you get breathtaking masterpieces and I don't know any better example of that than this song. It's just constant musical fireworks which just keeps on giving
Devin Townsend, Persefone and Haken also deliver this type of music very well.
I recommend:
Devin Townsend - Singularity
Persefone - Aathma
Haken - Celestial Elixir
Ne Obliviscaris - Citadel (and all others)
Where metal (and arguably music as a whole) reaches its zenith of blissful trance
Everything after 7:41 just cannot be put into words. Sometimes I think this will be better than Sons of Winter and Stars. As a fellow fan stated below, this song is greater than life.
This year it's time to celebrate
It's been 8 years since i first heard this song and it's still the single best piece of music I've ever witnessed... It literally sounds greater than life itself, oh my god, can't wait for it to come out.... Also thank you to all those people who remixed this, I'll be making a guitar cover in couple of weeks, long overdue
I know right, whatever happens in my life, I refuse to die before hearing the studio version of this song on the best headphones I can find
@@winterbear8633 Same. After I'm done listening to the studio version, I can finally say I can die happy.
This is probably the closest I'll ever be to being famous, excellent job!
Thanks for the hard work you put in learning and playing it! And money, since you had to get some parts teached by Teemu? :D
You did an excellent job man! Saw your cover years and come back to it all the time. Learned most of the song by listening and watching your cover so thanks dude!!
You nailed it man, sorry the dislike bot hit you hard.
You're an absolute fucking legend, my friend. I wish I had your patience and talent!
That video was legendary, man. I’ve watched it many times. Still can’t believe you did it.
I wish Jari would at least release this as a single while we wait
I hate the fact that I love Jari
I think this will be the most, epic and impressive song in the entire melodic metal/shred guitar world to date when it eventually releases
it already is
Einstein formulated the theory of relativity. Jari had a similar stroke of genius when he wrote this song.
Hope you guys all know, that we are all witnessing an historical event of the Metal scene, with Time II finally being announced. This will be epic🤘🏻
That reveal video certainly was ground breaking. I was mindblown by how incredible it sounds
This song is out of this world!
Truly. It's almost like it's a forbidden fruit and our world doesn't deserve it, but it'll play once we die and enter the realm of afterlife or something.
The Time (II) has come
The Time II come has come
I just realized Time I was released when I was 6 years old and in 1st grade (I of course didn't know anything about Wintersun or metal in general back then) and now Time II is about to be released, the year I graduate from High School
for a sec i was wondering why the "one with the shadows" solo didn't came right after the intro
Love this song cant wait for the final version.
Go wintersun finished at last cannot wait
My millionth time listening to this and it still sounds just as fantastic as it always has. Just makes me more and more excited to hear the proper version.
crazy to have a song this good and sleep on it for like 15 years. I mean I would have taken a mixing board recording of this performance lmao
The whole time album should have been released back in 2006.
I think I'll be long dead before Time II is released.
still alive?
Whenever Time II comes out, I know that I'm going to cry while I listen to it
I'm crying already because of the unbearable wait xd
It's fine, should be no more than 10-15 years
@@hyde4004 It only took 8 years for The Forest Seasons to come out
Netón Yea, but TFS was a mere sideproject that didn't require decades of mixing, like Time II does.
Hyde But now Jari knows exactly how to get the right sound for Time II and he just needs the Wintersun Headquarters to get it done, the mixning of it (which was the only thing left to do for Time II) won’t take that long, the only thing that mattera right now is that the second crowdfunding goes well and that they reach 750 000€ that they needed to build their studio
Who come first, Wintersun - Time II or Half Life 3?
I'd say Time II, because at least we know it exists in some form!
Or a new A Song of Ice and Fire book?
Diablo 4 will come before either of these...
After HL: Alyx, I would say HL3.
You can't take Jari or Wintersun serious anymore after that "Wintersun HQ" bullshit back when they released The Forest Seasons and this infinite f''gotry after almost 10 years since Time I.
Half Like Alyx lol
Hello Jari guys here
Thank you so much. I can hear much more detail in the song! Like clearer riffs and the solo for sure. Jari's voice is the overall beauty and that's nice and clear now too. I appreciate the Time you spent for this.
time will fade these dreams..
I really hope that we will be able to hear Time II when it comes out, but I’m starting to doubt that we’ll ever hear it. If it comes out then it will be the greatest album ever in any genre, Wintersun are the greatest band I’ve ever heard, their music truly is epic🤘
I have no doubt in my mind that we will hear it soon enough unless Jari and all the people associated to him somehow perishes before that.
It’s finished!!!
@@wfjara haha, yeah I saw, what a great day my friend, still can’t believe it
Simply amazing. Thank you so much!
Thank you for this version!!
Thank you very much! This sounds so much more clear now
This band is The One
Absolutely beautiful.
I'm getting goosebumps already!
Fire, the oldest one.
This song is so beautiful
I've never heard this before now. This is absolutely beautiful.
Awesome mate, thank you!!
Always a amazing song, wait so long for Time II
Snowboarding to wintersun is really an experience
thanks for uploading that man , holy t'''' thats powerful
Thanks for doing this, Ollie! You keepin' us sane!
I hope Jari appreciates all the shit us fans do while waiting for new material 😂
The Wintersun fanbase consists of some very dedicated folks.
I loved the reveal time of the TFS Crowdfunding, where every new Video gave us a few more seconds of studio sound, and people collected them, tried to put them in order, and edited them in the live version of TFTW. And of course the editing of the "Way of the Fire"-recording. Despite not being the "true vision" music, I think Jari and the other guys are happy with how we workaround the unfortunate situation and a bit proud of us Wintersun-junkies :)
"Total eargasm".🤘🤘🤘
I'm quite impressed with this version honestly. There are plenty of black metal masterpieces that sound way worse, so I'm good, no need to release the studio version. (Just kidding, I can't fucking wait!).
HOLY SHIT THIS IS UNREAL THANK YOU
This is going to be on the new album, AMAZING
You definitely got the MONEY SHOT, Olli!!!! :-) Greetings from Vienna Toby
Yes! New old Ensiferum. Drama can come true.
If Jari lived in medieval times he would be burned at stake for witchcraft
I want to believe!
That fucking moment between 0.13 and 0.15 is just glorious
Ollie mate, you're a fucking hero. So happy to listen to this song with headphones better now, beautifully done. I just love that bite on the guitar at the 3:31 riff.
Cheers man, this song was in desperate need for a mix that's easier to listen to, glad you like it!
That is probably my favourite riff ever... the whole song is a masterclass in emotive music writing
Can't wait to hear a studio version of this song. I hope Jarii will finish it before I drank myself to death.
2:27 Fireeeeeee!!
4:02 Eargasm
You still alive, bro?
Recuerdo en el 2013 que vinieron a méxico, esa parte del 8:08 al 8:14 me puso los bellos de punta, maldita hermosura.
Just fucking EPIC !
We want Time 2!!!
Good job man! This is so comforting especially cause we know the studio version is still so far away.

The orchestrals after the solo just reafirms jaris talent as a composer, the time album (1 and 2) will mark Jari not just a beast of a metal composer, but a classical as well

Sleep now for a while before the storm awakens. Soon it's timeX2!!! 🤘😎🤗
4:47 so I can keep coming back to this part
Here we go again my man, Time 2 it´s about to be released, the hype is going to be on fire again. How you doing?
I have a bad habit of refusing to get excited about something until it's a reality - so until I have a physical copy in my hands or files on my PC, I can't reach maximum excitement😅
I will definitely cry my eyes out with the first solo and chorus once i listen to it in studio quality. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVEEEE
Hahaha, I know, but it feels so close right now after so many years. I've been following Jari since Ensiferum. He have waited and suffer with him aswell.
I really don't get why he hasn't released the rest of the album. What I would give for a studio version of this...

Kinda wish they never played this live. Never released any clips and when we finally heard the song upon the release of Time II -album, the mindblow would've been just too great. It's the greatest song ever.
Listening to this for over 10 years still blows my mind when I will hear an actual studio version of this. Although expectations are very high at this point.
Time 2 was scheduled to come out a year after time 1 came out but of course we had to wait until this year.
