This definitely takes me back to high school when I was 16. So many times walking through the halls and listening to this song! HIM will always be one of my favorite bands.
i love this song even know i lost the love of my life while listening to this song you dont know how much it hurts to listen to this song but it reminds me of how it was and how much i still love her but i will find new love
Blinded I am And so are you By shedding tears Confusion that separates us two We hold dear Just look into my eyes Kiss our fears goodbye I'm reaching for your shadow Drowning in the kiss of dawn Touching the pain that you left me with At the kiss of dawn I'm tired of the games I'm playing with you When you're not here Death frees from the fear of dying It's true, have no fear Let me look into your eyes And see death pass us by I'm reaching for your shadow Drowning in the kiss of dawn Touching the pain you left me with At the kiss of dawn I'm reaching for your shadow Drowning in the kiss of dawn Touching the pain that you left me with At the kiss of dawn I'm reaching for your shadow Drowning in the kiss of dawn
@MrMaronias If you like that sort of thing but its not for everyone. I like both but do like HIM more and HIM is more of a hard rock/rock band without crazy sweeping guitar solos which don't sound good to everyone.
@ErisedDawn Nothing you can't do with only a year or two of owning a guitar. And teaching yourself. Maybe 6 months with lessons. Easy guitar parts are easy.
@shopkovsky people listen to that shit because most of TV channels plays only pop rock -pop-RnB music so no emotional music can't be even played on regular music channels.

omg same, my mother listened to them when she was pregnant with me so it comes as no surprise to me that all their songs have felt apart of my life literally from the womb 😭 they raised the music taste of some of this generation, for sure
Funny story, my wife (at the time gf) we're doing the "who is our celebrity crush/would totally sleep with. Valo was mine, made for an interesting conversation.
It has been a while since I've last listened to this song or any other HIM songs I love, because life keeps us "busy" most of the time... I can safely say now it never changes for me: every note hits a mark on my soul and vibrates into my heart. The sorrow in Ville's voice is not artificial: it brings out some old memories in me which make me bleed a little but also bring comfort as if someone else has been there already and can understand me and my feelings...
That look, sir, really suits him. I cannot imagine Ville with a different look, to be honest. It's his image, his style. Other than that, it makes him look more rockstar-like, dark and androgynous.Lots of rockers were like that. Lots of them were skinny as well ;P
I've been a HIM fan almost half my life. But it seems more than a lifetime ago since I had their posters on my walls, their cds in my walkman and nothing else to care about. I miss those days.
I recently saw a video on how HIM is cringe and I’m here to say; if you don’t get it then it’d okay. There are so many fans out here still thriving off of their music 💜 HIM saved my life, and I have the heartagram on my wrist to remind me to keep going every single day. Still here years later obsessed af 😍 HIM fan for life
I think it would be great if HIM would be famous amongst teens again like it was 10-20 years ago. I’m a teenager who is inlove with HIM and their music. Wish that they could come back and do some gigs someday 🥹💖
@chillerz7242 I'm so happy that the new generations are finding HIM songs and Ville's new songs. 😘I know that many young people now are rediscovering this Finnish band and its amazing singer and songwriter.
I remember getting the bus to the city so I could buy their albums after a great review in Kerrang magazine. Was 1999 I believe - had my shitty cd Walkman and headphones, buying from HMV. GREAT TIMES!
Can absolutely relate! Then trying not to walk so fast so my disc man wouldn't scratch my cd. Now it's just my ipod. Such memories of being a young scene kid ☺☺

I always dug how the guys did extremely dark, Type O-esque interludes in the Venus Doom era. The aforementioned album is by far the best they have done yet!
Yep. So I was showing this guy some songs from H.I.M. and he's like, "Do you like Nickleback?" I had to reply, "...Fuck no...why..." I shit you not, he said they had the same sound............. ARE YOU FUCKING DEAF?! Safe to say I didn't talk to him again :S
Я начала слушать эту группу в 15 лет(в далеком 2010) в свой неформальный период жизни. многое с того времени изменилось и я тоже. Но Эта группа и ЭТОТ голос навечно во мне. уже 2020 год а я по-прежнему их слушаю ♥♥♥
So what? It is pointless to have kids with the wrong person. And it doesn't matter how many people want you, that doesn't mean you would be happy with any of them. He never met his soulmate. That's why.
Indeed. This album was a masterpiece even if it was the first album that they clearly changed their sound. Well idk if its my favorite cuz i love razorblade romance so much but its kinda amazing
I remember this song, the returning of H.I.M. after Ville was in the rehab. And they came with the heviest album of all. I was at the practice from my highschool and we had no internet. The album wasn't released yet so I painted one picture for every song.
