Avantasia - 'The Story Ain't Over' (Live at Wacken Open Air 2014)
Rousing from dreams, craving for someone
Wept himself to sleep
He s waiting for a sign from above
Where is the love
The hourglass in pieces, dashed to the wall
The future is over
Tomorrow s been slipping away
And nothing remains
He d known it won t last forever
She d go ahead for a while
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You know this story ain t over
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You feel this story ain t over
Where is the candle in this lonesome night?
Angle why are you so wayward
Abandoning me, try my belief
When life is not words
and tongue is not answers
And we only can t see a reason
Why would it mean
that it s not meant to be
He d known it won t last forever
She d go ahead for a while
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You know this story ain t over
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You feel this story ain t over
We invoke the machine
Wept himself to sleep
He s waiting for a sign from above
Where is the love
The hourglass in pieces, dashed to the wall
The future is over
Tomorrow s been slipping away
And nothing remains
He d known it won t last forever
She d go ahead for a while
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You know this story ain t over
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You feel this story ain t over
Where is the candle in this lonesome night?
Angle why are you so wayward
Abandoning me, try my belief
When life is not words
and tongue is not answers
And we only can t see a reason
Why would it mean
that it s not meant to be
He d known it won t last forever
She d go ahead for a while
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You know this story ain t over
When you open your eyes
When you gaze at the sky
When you look to the stars
As they shut down the night
You feel this story ain t over
We invoke the machine
Στο μουσικό φεστιβάλ του Waken έχουν εμφανιστεί αρκετές φορές (2011, 2017, 20217) οι Avantasia, κάτι που θα γίνει και το νέο έτος. Στεκόμαστε στην προ επταετίας εμφάνισή τους και τους βλέπουμε - ακούμε να αποδίδουν "ζωντανά" το τραγούδι "The Story Ain't Over" παρέα με τον τραγουδιστή των Magnum, Bob Catley. Το τραγούδι το γνωρίσαμε μέσα από το ep των Avantasia "Lost in Space (Part 1)" που κυκλοφόρησε το φθινόπωρο του 2007. Την επόμενη χρονιά (2008) βγήκε μαζί το δεύτερο μέρος ως συλλογή ("Lost in Space (Part 1 & 2)").
Οι Avantasia δημιουργήθηκαν το 2000 από τον Tobias Sammet των Edguy. Σχηματίσθηκαν ως side project για την κυκλοφορία μίας metal όπερας ("The Metal Opera", "The Metal Opera pt.II"), αλλά στην πορεία μετεξελίχθηκαν σε "κανονικό" σχήμα, το οποίο συνεχίζει ακάθεκτο μέχρι τις ημέρες μας έχοντας κυκλοφορήσει οκτώ "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, τρία EPs, οκτώ singles, μία συλλογή, ένα split (μαζί με Dimmu Borgir και Sonata Arctica), τρία Boxed set και ένα live album...
