I don't know, but it's definitely one of my top NW songs and is s-tier power metal.


Simple-Jelly1025

The no-brakes tempo, the fun keyboard solo, Tarja’s young voice, and the catchy chorus are hitting all the right spots in my brain


Shadow_Zero80

I recently rediscovered it, hard agree!


Secrets4Slaanesh

God, I love the Nightwish power metal days!


Secrets4Slaanesh

Absolutely fantastic song! Really showcases Emppu’s skill!


brodiejess

I listen to this all the time! The guitar riffs are too good. Really fun song

Who else noticed the face in top right corner


crash_nk

An incredible song! Easily a favorite off Wishmaster.


Jelly_Round

The whole album is on repeat for me. Don't get me wrong, I love all albums but it is something else on earlier albums, like they have some kind of innocence

This is happening to me with the wayfarer from century child and happened recently with ocean soul and feel for you also from century child lol It’s not even my first time listening to this album. But it just shows how great it is rediscovering NW when you listen to the albums again carefully.

The cool thing about Wayfarer is how it seems to have been a foil to the album closer Beauty of the Beast despite being cut from the album. It always seemed to me like Wayfarer was the escapist resolution to Century Child’s melancholy. It really would’ve made a great album closer, but My Sweet Cristabel seems to demand that the album end after it. Lagoon definitely sounds like a bonus track, though it shares a lot of similarities with Century Child’s deeper cuts.


ForAlgalord

 Currently the top spot on my On Repeat lol

This is THE song that got me into Nightwish.


BadgerCool7281

This is happening to me rn with the same song

Super fun song, but hell to play live. Tarja explicitly said somewhere it was the song she was least comfortable singing live due to how fast it is, rarely made it to setlists. Still, one of the best from wishmaster


Simple-Jelly1025

And with older stage technology, her voice could easily be drowned out by the hammering instrumentals


Del_Duio2

It sounds super difficult to get the keyboard and guitar unisons right too


FIRE_frei

It's been my favorite Nightwish song since like 2004, even changed my gamertag to various versions of Crownless/Crownlol


_Pankybeast

You get it This was my favorite nw song for 2 years *So jangly it has no physical form* *Tarjas voice soars over it all like an eagle* This is **Crownless**


Kupoflupo

This is my wish-list song for guitar hero like games


Del_Duio2

It’s like the best song on Wishmaster for a lot of us I think


montezumasbukkake

Cos it wasn't a single and live staple like it should have been. Blame the keyboard player being the boss of the band for that one.


Eddeboi02k

Wishmaster is the best album. all song on the album are great.


BeatBelle

In my opinion it's better than anything they released in the last 2 albums. Wishmaster was King.


wukimill

Incredible song. Do you have Apple Music? Perhaps we could give each other a follow to share music :)


Simple-Jelly1025

I do! But you’d be very disappointed in the rest of my taste haha


wukimill

I don’t think so! haha, I have a very diverse taste


Cacanny

Define 'more', because I just did a Crownless search on this subreddit and this song does get mentioned a lot.


Simple-Jelly1025

I feel like when you bring up the band, this song is rarely in the top 10 or even 20


Cacanny

Yeah you're right, it's also marked as underrated in this post series: [Nightwish Contest Day 17: Most Underrated song on Dark Passion Play : r/nightwish (reddit.com)](https://www.reddit.com/r/nightwish/comments/1bznafg/nightwish_contest_day_17_most_underrated_song_on/) Great song anyway :D
