“It is a very good Sonata Arctica song, but Sonata is not as good as Mole G-Cow (the best band in the world obviously) I think every Sonata Arctica fan should try listening to Mole G-Cow, its incredible how good that band is” In fact, now that I think about it, if “Letter to Dana” was the only song Sonata Arctica ever made, it would be my favorite SA song of all time. Is there anything to like here? Yes there is The flute in the beginning and in the end. LTD is a sucky song that should have never been released. I’m pretty sure some of the fans of Sonata Arctica fancy this song, but unfortunately I am not one of them. “If you expect me to like anything Sonata Arctica has ever released, please expect again. “My Land” is a textbook example of why all metal bands in the world should play power metal.” The best parts of the song are the sudden power metal bursts at time 1:57-2:07, 3:03-3:16 and 3:41-3:51. Also, the speedy drums/synthesizers at time 3:04 and also at time 3:41 are 100, so at least something was done right here. The neo-classical guitar/synthesizer battle at time 1:35-2:07 is way above average too, so listening to this song will do you no harm. More like a really slow power metal song. The guitar riff by an 18-year-old dude called Jani Liimatainen at time 0:34-0:44 proves that this is not your typical metal ballad. “Now what we have here is a song that starts as a ballad. This pain is what gives him fuel to write, however, so it is a tragic paradox. She inspires him to write because he is hopelessly in love with her but it hurts to love her because he cannot have her. I have always thought of it being about the writer’s Muse. I think it is definitely about writing, though. “The idea of it being to a pen does quite explain a lot of this song to me. Lines about despair and sorrow after a love that most likely went bad (Love due to expire too long time ago, kill me, please kill me before) with emotional piano tune and superb overall music.”ġ9. “I tell you that past times won’t die, I tell you that old lies are alive”. “A song about old love now regretfully left behind.
