Best Sonata Arctica Songs

The Top Ten
Full Moon

Amazing song with strong and remarkable riffs, solo, and backing vocals. Also, the lyrics are just perfect! This song is definitely the best from Sonata Arctica. I should say that this song should be elected as one of the top 100 heavy metal songs, at least from what I have ever heard in my entire life!

This song is one of the most amazing things I have heard in my entire life. The first time I heard it, I was just astonished, and I replayed it so many times. I have yet to get tired of it. I would recommend this song to pretty much everyone.

White Pearl, Black Oceans

Quite simply a captivating piece that pulls the listener into the world, providing such fantastic imagery that even in the comparatively limited words of a song, a full story is fleshed out.

This is one of my favorite SA songs. The song tells a beautiful story that communicates with me on a very personal level.

In terms of lyrics, my favorite song is between this and Draw Me. But as Draw Me isn't listed, I'll vote for this.

While there are so many incredible Sonata Arctica songs, I am voting for this one. It is a majestic masterpiece that takes you on an unforgettable journey.

My Selene

Beautiful, poetic, and whimsical lyrics rooted in Western mythology. Combined with the up-tempo power metal style and impressive vocal performance that made early Sonata Arctica great, this is the most emotionally moving and impressive piece by them, in my opinion.

Very beautiful song. It should be at the top of the list. However, I wonder where "The Wind Beneath My Wings" is. It is the best song by Sonata Arctica, though it is copied from Bette Midler.

This should be much higher, at least higher than Full Moon and Replica.

The Cage

Best keyboard and rhythm work done by the band yet! This guy is arguably the best keyboardist in the world!

This song is just amazing. The first time I heard it, I was in tears because of how good it was. Sonata Arctica is the best band ever made.

Victorias Secret

My second favorite from them, my favorite being "Closer to an Animal." Most significantly, Victoria's Secret's verse is superbly magical and leaves the creative listener in a bubbly trance, at least for me. The chorus itself is likable in that it is simple, yet as it hits you hard with the bone-tapping "And it's not my secret!" you are blown away by the sheer indications of what the meaning of the song is.

Yes, it is a beautiful song because the hardest-hitting songs are those that affect you deeply and in the right bodily and emotional locations. This one does just that.

Besides beauty, this song achieves a high level for me because it is all-forgiving and has a spot for itself in innocence. Yet, it also somehow feasts on insurmountable drive and red-hot passionate fury, disguised as happy thoughts and happy things.

Kingdom for a Heart
San Sebastian

Amazing lyrics, amazing voice, amazing in every way. Sonata Arctica rules! This song is a must-listen!

First song from Sonata I've ever heard! For me, it's Sonata's best song.

Tallulah

I think Tallulah is the best song from Sonata Arctica. Well, I don't know because I'm not a fan of Sonata Arctica, but that's why it should be number one. I mean, even those people who don't listen to Sonata Arctica know this song.

The best song of Sonata Arctica, hands down. Beautiful ballad, and the lyrics just get to you every single time. This should be a must if you listen to any of Sonata's albums.

First Sonata's song I heard, and it left me amazed. The calm of the piano and the keys with the power of the guitar and drums. This song explains what Sonata Arctica is.

Shy

Awesome lyrics, perfect melody, everything! I really like and love so many Sonata Arctica songs (almost all of them!), but still, my vote goes to this wonderful piece. Shy means so much to me!

This should definitely be in the top three. It lifts my mood every time. Such a great song. Sixteenth? You gotta be kidding me.

Awesome lyrics with great music make this song perfect!

The Wolf and Raven

Intricate guitar work throughout the song. Amazing lyrical content that mirrors the Shakespearean classic Macbeth. Plus, the music video throws a curveball at you at the end of the song.

The first song that I heard from Sonata Arctica and the one that I keep listening to besides their other amazing songs! Also, amazing video.

The Newcomers

? I Have a Right
? Misplaced

This song is a perfect kick-start to one of their best albums!

The Contenders
Don't Say a Word

Why isn't this song here! I really don't understand. This should be at least top ten! It has a great and heavy riff and great lyrics. It's pure energy! It has an awesome solo too! The rhythm constantly is changing, and that makes the song very dynamic and fun!

So dynamic, with so many mixed elements and so much power. I heard it live, and in my opinion, it was even better than the album version.

This one is definitely my favorite song by Sonata, and I've heard all of them. White Pearl comes in second though.

False News Travels Fast

This song has some very brilliant modifications to the main melodies occurring here and there in the song, and it really serves to make this a compelling and addictive song. The vocal choruses are awesome!

Paid in Full

Amazing song that manages to be a perfect cross between power metal and prog metal. It manages to make each chorus slightly different, but with the same amazingly catchy theme.

The primary reason I think this is the number one song by Sonata Arctica is because of this: "My fault that you then turned another cheek, you mouth the words, you're not ready to speak, you're scared of me, although I never had a clue, that I've become so much stronger than you."

Good melody. Fits for times when mystical thoughts go through the mind.

8th Commandment

My favorite part: "And liars will always die!" because he makes a growl in "die," and I just admire that, especially at the end of a song. Pure genius!

Black Sheep

This was my introduction song to this band, the very first that I've heard. It's been quite a while since that fateful day, yet I still deem this song my favorite and the best they ever had. It's been many years, and I'm still not tired of it! Thank you so much!

Remarkable, to put it simply. Great riff, great solo, great work overall.

Listen for yourselves, it's worth it.

Should have been in the top ten for sure.

Fast tempo, great riffs, and solos! Live with the black sheep, live with me.

Replica

It's a great song with a great story, showing the struggles that people go through, especially soldiers and veterans.

Best Sonata Arctica song. I get goosebumps every time I hear it.

Letter to Dana

How is this not in the top 5? Timeless song and should be higher up.

There are so many versions of this song, and each one is amazing.

The most beautiful song I've ever heard.

My Land

So many great SA songs... But this is my favorite!

Very strong and powerful. That's how a song should be!

It's the best song of Sonata Arctica and the best song in the world.

Best song!

High notes, fast and strong!

The Misery

I love this type of music. This song is very romantic. I like the melody and his voice too. Hope you like and vote for this song!

Should be way, way higher. It's one of the best songs I heard from Sonata Arctica. I've heard it for two years or so and am still listening to it even now.

My favorite song ever! It's perfect. Sonata is my favorite band because of this song.

Weballergy

Criminally underrated. Could easily be in their top 10.

Caleb

I love that this one doesn't have a chorus, just a common musical theme.

Definitely the best SA song. The story is magical, and so is the music.

The Wolves Die Young

This song is awesome! I love the rhythm. The second solo is perfect, and the chorus is just magical. It should be in the top 15, at least.

I don't know why this song is not in the top 5!

Blank File
Last Drop Falls

It's so strange that no one voted for this song. I think in this song Toni sings fantastically, and the lyrics are straightforward. For me, this song is one good song from Sonata. I wonder why this song is underrated because, until now, the lyrics still ring in my ear.

This song is just great! You should listen to it and vote it up because it is one of the best songs ever. The words motivate you to love more and more, more and more, until the last drop falls!

Strange... This great song is underrated. Honestly, the lyrics of this song and the voice of the vocalist are still ringing in my ears.

The End of This Chapter

A song about old love now regretfully left behind. "I tell you that past times won't die, I tell you that old lies are alive." Lines about despair and sorrow after a love that most likely went bad ("Love due to expire too long time ago, kill me, please kill me before") with an emotional piano tune and superb overall music. Must be in the top ten for sure!

My favorite song!

A lot of love, a lot of thoughts, a lot of regrets. Absolutely amazing guitar, amazing piano, and amazing vocals!

Never heard a song that has brought me so many emotions. It matches with White Pearl, Black Oceans.
