How is it possible for a treasure like this to be hidden and unpublished for so many years?!

I always tell people that the reason why I'm a Wintersun fan, is because of Jari's ability to tell stories with music. Like there are bands which you like to listen to because they are heavy, or because of complexity. But Jari's music is the type of music where you just close your eyes and let your imagination go. The level of visual landscapes this guy can create with music is just impressive.

i swear Jari's songs are all masterpieces. This man is a real genius

Moment of silence for all Wintersun fans who aren't around anymore to experience this (and all other new content).

This ‘demo’ sounds better than a lot of bands final mixes

This will be on repeat ALL DAY and nobody can stop me!

Amazing "demo" quality. It would be interesting if after all the demos are released, wintersun gets like the top fan selected demos and then they re-record the ultimate fan demo collection

Ensiferum would pay great money for this Jari😅 Seriously this is even better than expected. This sounds epic as hell. You really got some fantastic material here, loved every bit of the Fantasy Project, and we are thankful that you are sharing.

Wintersun has really cemented its place as my favourite band, I can’t wait for time II and your future releases. It’s hard to quantify how much your favourite musicians impact your life ❤

Amazing Jari!!!!!!! Thank you very much for sharing this to us!!!! For me this is so far the best song from the early demos😳😳

Jari is the Smaug of musicians, brooding on his musical treasure horde for years. This is only that first chalice Bilbo filched upon their first meeting. In August we take back Erebor!!!!!

That's a nice way to start the day! coffee + wintersun 😍

Luca Turilli dances around in joy ❤⚔️🐲

This has been the biggest release of metal I think we've ever seen in a single campaign event. I haven't been on social media for months but I hope people aren't shying away from how massive this move is, just from a band management perspective! When's the last time we saw a band release 2 completely reworked albums, a new album, and 5 hours of demos and early archives before?? I don't think we ever have.

It's as if Jari possesses time travel abilities. Listening to this, it's as if I'm living the early 2000's again. I love it. The Time package is surely worthy of its name!

Jari, what did we do so bad to you to have this masterpiece hidden to us?

Sounds better than a lot of current metal songs What a killer song \m/

Jari. You make all of us feel much better.. The waiting was long. But now, we are marching all together to a great musical future ! Thank you. Merci.

I discovered Wintersun while I was playing the Skyrim for the first time back in 2014. This song is a huge throwback to good ol' school days for me. I guess it's time to head back to Tamriel now 😁😁. Thank you Jari! Keep it going!

I have a problem. I will take a test on May 5th and I have to study at least 12 hours a day. When I watch Jari's videos in the morning, I want to watch them all day long. And now the dragon 💖

lets goooo!!! August 30th seems so far away!!!!

This sounds like the closing track to the most epic Ensiferum album that never was - holy crap. Jari, thank you for releasing this!

I swear the more I listen to this the more I love it, the opening is just so fucking good.

That solo, omg this is so beautiful 3:21

Finally! Thanks for releasing this early! Listening to it right know! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Fus Ro Dah!

Jari, I have been a harsh critic of the album delay for the past 6 years, but only out of absolute love for your music and composition skills. You have truly made up for all of that lost time and then some before TIME II has even been accounted for with these free demos and songs. PLEASE keep releasing music with this beauty and melody regularly for years to come, no matter the year or TIME of its origin!! 💙💜🤍

I ordered the package today. It is not my finest era financially, but supporting the greatest composer of our time is something I can remember and tell to grandchildren someday 😁

Congrats. This is now the favorite song of my 3-year old :D He now likes Korpiklaani, Alestorm and Wintersun. Guys, I think I am winning at this parenting thing x)

It's crazy that with 275 comments so far, only one person talked about Eternal Wait haha

THIS CANT BE TRUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Really cant even understand why you kept this gem soooo long hidden. But to be honest i think i now understand why you keep on saying that this was the perfect TIME . THANK YOUUUUU

I'm playing Dragon's Dogma while listening to this absolute banger. What a time to be alive ❤️‍🔥

There's raw energy dripping from every note! You can feel Jari pouring his soul into this song. It absolutely explodes with a sense of high adventure - makes you want to grab your sword and leap into the unknown! Thanks, Jari! Here's hoping we get lyrics soon, these need to be sung!

Wintersun should add Dragon Song and Powers Inside to live setlist.

An epic soundtrack for a dragon movie, nice and beautiful video. Great job Jari.

This is seriously my favorite song now..

This is one of the best you've released Jari! Fucking legend.

Release is getting near and I love every Minisecond of this video, this song, this lyrics and the feeling to be able to listen to such mastery! Thank you Jari! Thank you Teemu! Thank you Kai! Thank you Jukka!

Oh.. My... GooooD!! I was literaly hypnootized by this awesomeness! Such a legendary folk-medieval dragon song! The begining reminds the Game of Thrones themes, but the almighty music... All Hail Sir Jari! One of the best songs of your, congratulations, so epic! And btw. I love those visual videos. Wish there will be more and it would be so awesome to listen to each song from Time Package with the special visualisation videos. God bless You Jari and... Thank You! Waiting patiently for my Time Package to arrive

With every demo released I get more happy that I bought this Package. this one and Fountain of life especially are really good

Absolutely beautiful and majestic, I know I will be listening to this one for years to come.

I hope, that these demo songs we all can hear also live. These gives so much positive shivers.

I don't even listen to that much of metal anymore - but I will always come back for Wintersun!

Nervous like a child for this release, crying for happiness at 3:00 chorus, grining wide at the end - thank you Jari for these emotions!

Excited for the launch, been desperately waiting since 2012

My god this is beautiful! 3.00- 4.30 i'm literally crying of happiness, emotions flowing though me! Thank you Jari.

They went silent for years and now dropping banger after banger as DEMOS and we haven't yet heard Time 2 my gawd!

Oh man... if this is the demo, and has a leve that surprasses the quality of quite a number of projects already published... can't wait to see what the final thing is going to be like. I'm getting very excited, thanks for creating and sharing this majestic masterpiece that even the highest metal gods and demons will love.

Jari you are one of the greatest musicians of all times I mean it with all of my heart I wish I could shake your hand . Thank you for this pure music full of soul timeless infinte masterpiece

*Pressing like before even starting the song.

Great music, amazing vocals and fantastic instrumentals ! ❤

Nice song, nice visuals. Well done, Jari ❤

That was beautiful! Love it too cause it sounds like Amon Amarth a bit here and there.Gorgeous❤❤❤

Congratulations Master Jari!! Greetings From Argentina

1998 is insaaaaane, I was 3 years old! this sounds so much more modern than that!!! fantastic stuff as expected, Jari 💙💙💙

What a musician. Jari is incredible. I hope this all goes well because can you imagine what the next wintersun albums will be like? Insane .

This song would KILL if you play it live one day! Thanks for all these awesome little gems ♥

Here is my somewhat confident attempt on the lyrics with timestamps if anyone wants to help, I will edit this comment with any possible suggestions/corrections: 0:18 And I saw an old dragon capture in a circle of flames 0:26 And inside his eyes I could only see sorrow but his heart was as firm as a stone 0:35 The arrows could not make him bleed 0:38 And he laughed at the shaking of spears 0:43 Upon the earth there is not his like 0:47 ?????? without fear 1:09 When the breath of wind caresses the earth 1:14 When the seas wail again 1:18 Then you can see the dragon fly 1:23 Through eternal dreams 1:27 The rain kept falling to the great woods of magic 1:37 where the dragon had gone to rest 1:44 the flames of the ??? fire ??? 1:49 high into the night 1:53 challenging the rising moon 2:45 And the last horizon flickers suddenly 2:49 And the lightning darkens the sky (this might be wrong) 2:54 When the darkness took over 2:56 The ????? 2:58 ????? the rain from afar/above(?) 3:03 ????? to the frail 3:07 Oh flee the mighty dragon 3:11 Search for a sign and ????? 3:15 ????? ????? (I have no idea about this part) 4:50 And I saw the dragon fly into wilderness 4:56 With the wings like an eagle 4:59 This memory I shall not forget 5:02 Until the day of my final breath 5:08 The arrows could not make him bleed 5:11 And he laughed at the shaking of spears 5:16 Upon the earth there is not his like 5:20 ?????? without fear 5:42 When the breath of wind caresses the earth 5:46 When the seas wail again 5:51 Then you can see the dragon fly 5:55 Through eternal dreams 5:59 When the dragon flew over the earth 6:04 The forces of nature were wrathed/fried(?) 6:08 Here behold the ????? 6:12 He is the king of the realms(?) of fire 6:17 He is the king of the ????? of skies

This Winter has been much easier due to the great return of Wintersun!

If only my demos would sound half as good as this... Now, after the arrival of the dragon, surely there's "fire burning in our hearts"!!! Thank you for sharing this with us!!!!

Honestly I've listened to this non stop since you released it, and this might be in my top 5 Wintersun songs of all time. It's that f-ing good.

Oh ,Lord ! It's qwite, absolutely gorgeous , Wintersun !!! 😊👏👏👍. Many thanks you for sharing this truly powerful song , guys !!!🙏😊👍❤️

This is one of those epic music videos that I will rewatch over and over again and will be listening to it till I hate it lol. I love it! It has everything I love in music. Just cannot understand how it is called "Early Demo", other groups and bands are creating worse official singles that that masterpiece. And it's not a single, it's an early demo! Dude, what a song, what a sound. Shiverrrss!

Never heard this, awesome in terms of music, but whoever did the artwork did an incredible job.

The Dragon! The dragon animation looks so expensive.

Jari,you are a real Masterpice!Greets from Germany

I was waiting for this since you announced the Time package, I played The Dragon Song so many times in that video. I am gonna do the same with this. This is beautiful, thank you so much!

It's 9:30pm in Australia, was about to go to bed. Now I have to listen to this song at least another ten times. LOVE IT!!!

This... gave me goosebumps

Always nice to wake up and see there's a new Wintersun song. Jari you have made my year with all of this. Only 4 more months!

Why can I only hit the Like button once? I want to like this a thousand times!

Those legendary demos are gonna be like... The best Ensiferum album ever lol

I'm stoked for Time II, but these fantasy demos have me freaking giddy. August can't come fast enough! Jari, you brilliant man.

LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOO.... WINTERSUN IS BACK! Jari please put this up on Spotify so I can have the strength of dragons when I workout!

Fucking Epic!!! Loving the dragon artwork and backgrounds on this. Song has a ye' oldie feel to it. Like you took an ancient bard song and grew it some steel balls.

....incredible, without words .... 🙂

Absolutely EPIC song! And great visuals. Can't wait for Time II!! 🔥🐲

The animation and the artwork is absolutely brilliant.

GREAT MASTERPIECE!!!!

Nice song to hear while reading Fire and Blood

Wish to never end this song.... simply beautiful.

Thus a new genre is born called Dragon Metal.

Love this! It has inspired me to create art today... something that hasn't happened in a while. Thank you!

Oh man you're uploading so many hidden gems. We all appreciate it all! You really make us to want to listen to everything right now, the wait is so worth it! What I've told my friends listening to Wintersun, patience is key!

Jari this is amazing! I can't believe we're gonna get such amazing songs (and quality production!) with the legendary demos. Thank you so much!

A very very total Epic folk Smaug, Glaurung, Ancalagon, Scatha, Gostir aka Dragons song! You're the true Ensiferum Jari. 🤘❤️🗡️⚔️

JARI wtf lol why did you make us wait, so long!!

This is absolutely epic, masterful, and beautiful. I love dragons! I'm a dragon and married a dragon, 12 years older than me. I will be playing this over and over ❤ You are the best Jari 🤘

This song is as Majestic as the Dragon.

Thank you for giving us samples and full songs. I will listen these while waiting for late august. Never couldnt imagine how much new music we would get. Thank you so so much! ❤❤❤

JARI you are the maestro of metal! 30 yrs of your music sometimes waiting a or what seems like a lifetime, you are IMO the metal God or ODIN, FUC KING LOVE you man

A new song to add to my Dragon slaying setlist.

Jari’s REDEMPTION! 🫡 Eternal gratitude and salutations from Morocco! 🤘🏼

This is amazing!

What an epic piece of music, thank you Jari. Incredible, mesmerisingly beautiful. Plus point for the visuals 🤘

Amazing. I honestly can’t remember the last time I’ve been so excited for an album.

all hail the Roland VS-1680

I'm at work right now and it's so tempting to listen, but i'll resist the temptation for 3 more hours so i can listen with proper sound quality with my audio technica headset :)

I was finally able to order the Time Package, can't wait for August! Thanks for the music, you're easily one of my all time favourite bands, I'm sure the album will be worth the wait!
