Biography

Finnish power metal band formed in 1984. Stratovarius (a portmanteau of Stratocaster and Stradivarius) was founded by [a864567], [a1093290], and Staffan Stråhlman originally under the name Black Water. The name "Stratovarius" was invented by Lassila. Along with German bands [a252425], [a262577], and [a253729], Stratovarius is considered one of the leading and most influential groups of the power metal genre. In its history, the band has gone through many chaotic lineup changes and since 1995 there are no founding members of the band that remain. Currently, the longest standing member is singer Timo Kotipelto, who joined in 1994.

LYRICS

Seasons they come, seasons they go
Observing them in their perfect flow
Chaning my life as they pass me by
Drying my tears, letting them die
In the sunrise I am born again
In the sunset I die again

What will you do when all fails?
When you feel like a ship without its sails
When desperation fills your mind
And the pain makes you blind
In my silent truth I scream these words
THE HOPE IS LOUD!
Never give up

Season of faith's perfection
Hold on to your good thing
Every day there's a new chance
To start once again
Season of faith's perfection
Forgive yourself
Let go of the past
Be gentle, understand...
