I find it hard to beleive this song isnt touted as one of the greatest songs the band has written. The first time I heard this song I was moved like I rarely am by music. The dynamics, the build up, how personal the lyrics come off. This song is EPIC, and Im just suprised to see, at least from point of view, that this song gets kinda lost in the shuffle. Slower songs like "Join Me" and Bury Me Deep..." seem to get more respect. Maybe its just me. Anyone else feel the same?

Both "The Path" and "The Path (P.S. Version) are very good songs, but still not HIM's best. The Path shouldn't be so underrated, there are weaker songs, maybe because it's so long and people are used to short songs or maybe they just don't like it.
-
i can see that. But to me Love Metal is a FLAWLESS album. And The Path is like the grand finale of that album. It all just flows for me.
-
The Path is a great song, but me personally i like the feel of it, but i would much rather listen to funeral of hearts more, but dont think that i am putting the path down. It is still an amazing song, but like previously said, it may be too long for some to listen to.

The Path = Beautiful Song... maybe it's not commercial song but this is one of the best HIM songs in Love Metal era ... Beautiful Lyric, Beautiful Music... this song is only for Gods...

not my favorite, but a vey underrated song. i do find it brilliant.
-
The path's definately a special song. Nice intro, good lyrics and a perfect ending for the album.
And it's just the same as with every "special" song: When you listen to it on a loop it becomes kinda ordinary.
It's just like sex,...the right time...right place and stuff. ::)

i think the path is a great song, and especially like the p.s. version. it is very well put together both musically and vocally...not their best song. but still very underrated. come to think of it, i can't really say what is HIM's BEST song...there's to many good ones, and so many different styles over the years.
-
a favorite, but not a fan track. 13.
-
You make a lot of sense with the right mood, right moment theory. That happend to be the case for me. I can hear some songs 70 times and think they are just...eh, buut sometimes, right setting right mood, they are brilliant. The Path was just that for me. They played it live in NYC Nov of 04, wish i could get a bootleg
-
this is my favorite topic ever
THE PATH IS MY FAVORITE HIM SONG EVER!
-
i can see that. But to me Love Metal is a FLAWLESS album. And The Path is like the grand finale of that album. It all just flows for me.
I wouldn't say flawless.. The only thing about it, is that it might have needed a couple more songs.. But the songs on there were flawless
-
I agree that its a flawless album, great length, and they even put Loves Requiem which makes it even better and longer, I like the fact it starts with a fast song like buried alive by love, the ends on such a soft one. The path is amazing, great solo also.
-
and The Path [P.S. Version] is amazing too
-
the guitar solo almost sings the words(atleast to my ears). and PS is wow too. that was the best part of ULv1
-
I love The Path...one of my favourites HIM songs
I love the live performance from Hamburg, 03
-
If I had too chose a song that closest to my heart is must be The Path!
I love everything about it, the lyrics, Ville's voice, the guitars, the intro and yeah :D
Just so amazing, and this song means a lot to me personally:)
-
this is an amazing song
its a pity there so many songs which are underated and this one certainly is
-
"The Path" is the perfect (and epic) ending for the masterpiece that is 'Love Metal' (although "Love's Requiem" can fulfil this too...).
It has that Gothic feeling that HIM can show without being too emotional (sounding fake, like many bands in the genre) in a perfect symbiosis with the deep and many times hard to completely absorb which has been a growing element in HIM's lyrics since the very album in which 'The Path' appears.
Musically it shows a more atmospheric side of HIM that I personally enjoy. It reminds me (the mood, not exactly the music) the first album by the band and that is always something remarkable.
-
the path is a great song!!
but i think i like the P.S. Version a little bit better ;)
-
One of my favorites of thier's. It's a wonderful song. =]
-
...it's a beautiful song. One of my favourites songs. Forever... :)
-
It's beautiful, and every version has a different...uhm..."goodness"
I'm sorry but my English is not so good...
-
I love this song, the P.S. version is great too.
-
the path is probably one of the best songs they've written
is is easily my favorite song by them
its just so perfect
and yes, Love Metal is flawless.
my favorite album by them. i got it when it came out and it was my first album by HIM
its just so great, it remind me of growing up and my friends from highschool
all my friend who dislike HIM cant help but to admit that Love Metal is a classic album
The Path is awesome, and Love's Requiem is very close behind it
ooh, one of my fav parts is after 5:55
listen to it, ville's voice
and the guitar solo that follows
ahhhhh
blows my fucking MIND!
-
yes it really is a great song I love the solo at the end its so great I wish I could play this on Guitar.
Yes you are right Loves Requiem is also one of my fovorite songs I generally love the long ones. I must say Love Metal is one of the most balanced albums I think because I cant figure out one song which I dont like so much I dont know but generally awesome album and I also have a strong connection to it because it was my first HIM CD and I become a fan with Funeral Of Hearts and Love Metal as well so the best thing which could happened :D
-
I love The Path, especially the end of it, but I like the P.S. Version a little more.
-
The only problem I have with Love Metal is the fact that the end of it (ie circle of fear, endless dark, the path, and love's requiem) are all completely underrated by the listening community. I find myself even skipping out on them, but when I take the time to actually listen to the entire album I remember why I fell in love with the band to begin with. This album really is flawless in every regard.
Even though DSBH is my favorite by far, Love Metal really delivers.
-
The best songs in my opinion from Love Metal would be from This Fortress of Tears all the way to Loves Requiem.
-
it's one of the most beautiful songs by HIM..
-
i don't find it underrated....
it may not be my favorite but it is one of my very favorites for sure ;)
