Talk:Amaranth (song)

Genre
I have changed the genre. This song isn't only symphonic metal. I have also added symphonic rock and pop rock there. This song is softer and has a dynamic sound. DO NOT tell me that NW isn't pop rock band. Having pop rock as a genre in one song doesn't make them a pop rock band. --Nazzzz (talk) 08:52, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * hmmmm..i agree with symphonic rock but this definitely has no influence from pop.aonly vocalists voise is pop.--(written by BlackDoggie) —Preceding unsigned comment added by BlackDoggie (talk • contribs) 15:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm going to disagree. By changing the single/album genre adding symphonic rock contradicts the main DPP article. The song cannot be both symphonic metal and symphonic rock...Metallica's early songs were thrash metal, yet many of them opened differently...also hundreds of songs combine different genres but still have one over-arching genre. Otherwise, I suggest you correct all the errors for the rest of the songs on wikipedia. Seriphyn (talk) 13:27, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Cover amaranth.jpg
Image:Cover amaranth.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Band Members
It says that Emppu and Anette aren't in this song, but I'm listening to it right now, and it certainly sounds like they are... At the very least, there's definitely a guitarist and a singer that sounds an awful lot like Anette... Anybody know what's going on? Ravenwolf Zero 05:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

That line is a reference to 'While Your Lips Are Still Red', not 'Amaranth'. 74.98.104.126 10:25, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Song Meaning
Can someone please explain what this song means? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.44.91.176 (talk) 12:13, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Video Meaning
Can someone explain the significance of what happened in the music video and how it relates to the painting? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.112.232.123 (talk) 02:50, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Could it be possible to rewrite the "Music Video" section? It sounds like it was written by a 12 year old...

Pronounciation of Lyrics
Is it worth noting the unusual (ie non-english) pronoucniation of certain of the lyrics? Eg the chorus "Caress the one, the Never-Fading..." is pronounced "care-is..." - making it very difficult to determine the words/meaning purely from listening. 82.10.108.49 (talk) 00:06, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The text is:
 *  There is the one
 * The never-fading rain in your heart
 * Hybscher (talk) 03:22, 27 January 2008 (UTC)


 * The lyrics section of the official website of Nightwish seems to disagree with you, stating:
 * Caress the one, the Never-Fading
 * Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow

Bad article
The article yaps a lot about the song and it's success, and what happens in the music video. There is no discussion on the contents of the song or the technical aspects of it. Didn't interest me at all.  — Adriaan (T★C) 08:42, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

One of the interesting issues with this seems to be the fact that unless one of us interviews Nightwish about this and publishes that separately, any discussion of the contents might as well be original research.... For example, it seems that the obvious reference to amaranth here is the metaphor for lasting cut flowers in European literature going back to Aesop. Asserting that and proving it are two different things though. --206.130.134.147 (talk) 21:19, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
