Cover art for The Gun lyrics by Sonata Arctica

I like this song a lot, but when I first heard it, after listening to all the others songs a million times, I thought it was a cover or something because it seemed so unlike Sonata Arctica. Probably because of the sound, the topic, and setting. A lot of their songs have a vague or, I don't know, fantastical setting, I feel. Or very romantic. Not modern. Not about a young kid getting involved in a gang or whatever. Love it, though. Great surprise and good variety, just another side of the band.

My Opinion
