looks like Rambo Rimbaud is not happening, but instead of Rambo Ville went solo? I am going to the vacation tomorrow, hopefully someone will bring it here to preview / listen So we have Universal music with Ville Valo solo single - does this mean that when there is a single there will be Ville Valo solo album too? This terrible lack of informations is killing me, seriously :D

To be honest, I didn't really find this myself, it's rather that it's all over facebook :D
I hope you're not on vacation yet, here (https://www.facebook.com/HeartagramTeam/videos/997721016963402/)'s a short preview ; )
According to HIM Norway it's a cover of a song by Finnish artist Leo Christer Friman known by his stage name "Freeman" [source (https://www.facebook.com/HIMNorway/photos/a.128364470554754.20709.105300026194532/1113419312049260/?type=3)]. (Which turned out to be a half-truth since Freeman's song is already a cover of John Denver's Annie's Song, as was pointed out.)

I don't know whether he is having his midlife crisis and trying to go back to the roots or just trying to get some coin. But seriously guys, what's the real point of that release? ;D

I couldn't believe this was an actual record label's actual logo. I'm still amazed. I mean. What exactly were they thinking? :D
More seriously though: What is it supposed to be? :D

I don't think that this logo was designed by Ville lol

Post by: Kaysa on July 05, 2016, 05:54:13 AM
As Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Records) tells us, the label was founded before Ville was even born and the logo designed by Harri Manner.

Found it on YT already, of course! It's good for him to keep his voice working, I guess, but yeah these covers lately are so left field. :/

New official video! [url]http://www.iltasanomat.fi/musiikki/art-2000001217903.html?ref=rss[/url] ([url]http://www.iltasanomat.fi/musiikki/art-2000001217903.html?ref=rss[/url])
Sorry dudes, I'm so dumb, but how do you paste a video?
[youtube]Video ID[/youtube]For example, the URL is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JfeC66K534 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JfeC66K534) so the Video ID would be 0JfeC66K534.
The video is region restricted so I uploaded it for those that can't view/want it. https://we.tl/ke20JRA80h (https://we.tl/ke20JRA80h)

OK it has been a week since this single was released i listened to this song like 100 times already. I LOVE it, i really cant resist, Ville sounds like an angel. It is so beautiful that at some point it was making me cry, i just love Ville and his voice.
Piano, keyboards , "war-drums" in the backround and Ville - i am wet and i am 100% straight. I wanna know if he made this version.
is there any physical copy , digipak or anything coming?

I've read that there will be a limited amount of numbered vinyl singles at the end of the summer.

I wanted to post this but didn't want to be the one who always posts the shop links :'D
(Here's the link to the page in English (http://www.recordshopx.com/single/valo_ville/olet_mun_kaikuluotain/#478786) though >.> I know you can change the language of the website but that didn't work for me, so in case it doesn't for other people either.)

I wish it was in english, kinda catchy tho. Rambo Rimaudish. It sux theres no news on any new HIM album. The new Daniel lioneye song Aetherside makes Vol 3 promising tho. Seems like HIM is on a hiatus with Gas leaving and solo projects. Very saddening. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nwg_GxV3QgU (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nwg_GxV3QgU)

The music video for this song won the Best Music Video category in Finnish "Emma Gaala" Awards. A short piece of Ville's speech: "It's been a while since I've been here last time. It's nice of you for remembering an old man."
I didn't see this from TV, but he also thanked his girlfriend Christel Karhu and wished Happy Birthday to her mother.
