This Finnish band has made the first single from their third album "Winterheart's Guild". This single track "Victoria's Secret" (including both edit and original version) is very typical Sonata Arctica song. There's good keyboards and Tony sings more powerful than ever! This song tells about a girl who thinks she can have any boy she wants but when she tries to get someone nobody wants her. Very sad story: "Lost in the Sunlight, Leave You will not see the moon, walk for the first time, no one has waited for you". This song has intelligent name too. "victoria's Secret" is women's underwear. I think it's supposed to get more female fans, or...?The third track "Fade to Black" is a cover. The original version can be found in Metallica's album "Ride the Lightning". This song is more peaceful and at first I dislike it because the original was much tougher. Now I like it because this is so much different. Sonata Arctica really makes different kinds of songs. They rule the Finnish heave scene with Stratovarius and Nightwish.
