Nightwish - Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean Lyrics






A snowy owl above the haunted waters
poet of ancient gods
Cries to tell the neverending story
prophecy of becoming floods

An aura of mystery surrounds her
the lady in brightest white
Soon the incarnate shall be born
The Creator of the night

Deep dark is his Majesty's kingdom
A portent of tomorrow's world
There shall the liquid give Him power
The red-eyed unborn lord

Fatal embrace of the bloodred waters
The cradle of infinite gloom
The spell to master this Earth
Carven on an infant's tomb

"I will die for the love of the mermaid
Her seduction, beauty and scorn
Welcome to the end of your life
- Hail the Oceanborn!"

"Disgraced is my virginity
Death has woven my wedding dress
Oh, Great Blue, breathe the morning dew
For you are the cradle for the image of god"

"Brave now, long rest is sweet
With me here in the deep

"I Prayed for pleasure, wished for love
Prayed for your..."

"Never pray for me!"

"Who the hell are you for me
But a mortal dream to see"

"This apathetic life must drown
Forever just for me"

"Leave me be
Leave me be
Leave me be..ee eeee... e"

"From cradle to coffin
shall my wickedness be your passion

We shall come to set the dolphins free
We shall wash the darkened bloodred sea
Our songs will echo over the mountains and seas
The eternity will begin once again in peace

  1. t.... b....

    Holy shit dude!
    Incredibly bad ass!!

  2. G.... B....

    The whole song is a masterpiece, without any doubt. But jesus, this duet on 2:33... i can't even describe it with words. The "evil" on Marco's voice and the anger and anguish on the Floor's side. Goosebumps.

  3. J.... J....

    Marco totally rocks this one

  4. r.... c....

    Happy birthday FLOOR !! Today is your birthday, but who wins the gift are us, hearing your beautiful voice !!!

  5. M.... C....

    I really likes Marco's singing in this

  6. R.... S....

    For nothing in the world beats tarja turunen

  7. C.... M....

    Oceanborn is the best nightwish album!

  8. h.... ....

    I love how they push each other to even greater heights, it’s so awe-inspiring!

  9. T.... O....

    that dress is awesome

  10. U.... R....

    At least a singer who is kind of my taste...and she is hot...AFTER 4ever is for me much better...But to hear her singing I guess I have to listen nightwish.

  11. S.... M....

    Ya no son los mismos sin tarja

  12. S.... M....

    Tarja canta mejor que floor

  13. V.... ....

    Kai is a cool drummer but Jucca is much more soulful, Kai is like a robot

    V.... ....

    Kai is more Technics and powerfull

  14. �.... ....

    Bu kadın bu kulakların duyduğu en iyi ses. Efsane

  15. W.... M....

    FLOORGASM!!!!!!

  16. k.... l....

    Nightwish is not good, not even great...they are another beings from planet Symphony orbiting the greatest show system and they have landed here to take over the world.

  17. L.... A....

    Man, Kai just pulled out all the stops and took off! What technique and passion for the music. I love Floor's interpretation of this song, her range brings out the low growling vocals and still hits the high notes with crispness. Man, everybody rocks on this video. Oh, I'm in heaven and not coming down

  18. C.... M....

    look at this girl of buenos aires
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv3ZpQlv3nM

  19. I.... A....

    Floor is very hot
    She's burning me 😍😍😍😍😘😘😘

  20. A.... ....

    I was wrong, when I initially said "It is not my cup of tea"

  21. T.... A....

    Ok, so maybe the Caliphate is not such a bad idea.

  22. S.... E....

    So good so good

  23. R.... C....

    \m/ \m/ ROCK ON !!!!!!!!!!!

  24. M.... C....

    I Love Marco and Floor combination

  25. M.... P....

    👍🎶❤️

  26. G.... F....

    ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  27. I.... V....

    Floor ! Thank you for joining Nightwish! I stoped listening after Tarja left but I’m back thanks to you! You are amazing!

  28. e.... ....

    This song is so great!

  29. �.... �....

    Floor must to sing with Till Lindemann))))

    �.... �....

    Why? Till is nowhere near this level.. This is for people like Floor, Ronnie James, Bruce... etc.

  30. �.... �....

    Kill this singer, bring Tarja back

    �.... �....

    Well, assholes, if you do not understand.

    �.... �....

    @Сергей Ловыгин Then explain your reason on why you want Floor to be dead? And Don't fucking say "So tarja can get back" give a real and valid reason.

    �.... �....

    @Сергей Ловыгин You're right. We don't try to understand people who have mental disorders. We just lock them in an insane asylum.

    �.... �....

    you're a psycho dude. Get some help.

    �.... �....

    Why, NW is in their best now!!

  31. E.... ....

    Imagine Nightwish on the Eurovision song contest: 12 points from every country :-D I´d love to see that

  32. R.... M....

    I really hope my neighbors are enjoying listening to this album on repeat for the past few weeks

  33. j.... d....

    Holy shit gotta looooove floors headbang "windmill" gets me everytime 🤘🤘🤘

  34. P.... R....

    I first heard this song a decade ago and it became a favorite of mine ever since. To this day nothing has made me feel the way I did the first time I heard this song.

    Until now cause I just listened to this.

  35. G.... D....

    best version..

  36. T.... S....

    Please come back Tarja 😦

    T.... S....

    Tarja's done a long time ago . . . .

    T.... S....

    what for?

    T.... S....

    Pobre pibe

    T.... S....

    Man, I love Tarja, till now, but with NW she is history, I mean... Floore Jansen, she is a godess!!

  37. X.... A....

    This concert registration is amazing, brings back the good old music. Already played the blu-ray many times and so did my neighborhood !

  38. D.... ....

    This woman is ready for war...

    2:56 did she just scream?!

    D.... ....

    Not exactly a scream but a e6 super high note

  39. M.... W....

    This could be my Goddess Floor's most amazing performance. Escalating that note in the middle is just phenomenal and that scream- wow. Just a great song.

  40. T.... C....

    Am I the only person stoked out of their f*******n mind Floor has sung many of the old songs we haven't heard live in like 10 years. What a gift, thank you Nightwish

  41. J.... S....

    I love how Floor can switch her voice from angel to devil and back within seconds😍👼😈👼😈👼...

  42. I.... d....

    Any video that begins with someone headbanging definitely has my attention... This one just exceeded my expectations though!

  43. E.... R....

    A melhor versão de Xena a princesa guerreira.

  44. P.... M....

    The brutal approach of this performance made me crave for more.

  45. F.... R....

    damn, this is soooo good. love it

  46. N.... H....

    This woman is crazy hot. Tall. Angelic voice. Strong. I'm in love. Damn.

  47. T.... I....

    Vl😹😹😿😎💩💀

  48. J.... P....

    Engage all defenses and get this woman a shield!...

  49. W.... E....

    Every Nightwish singer has brought something unique to the band...but Floor, her stage presence and energy are phenomenal...and that voice. "Floorless." Pun intended.

  50. A.... *....

    Her voice has no impact whatsoever. Ms. Turunen would bring the house down and shatter all the wine glasses!

  51. R.... S....

    Who gives this a thumbs down?

    R.... S....

    Tarja die hard fans...

  52. k.... s....

    I adore Floor and she aings amazing, butbi have to say i like Tarja's rendition better, the contrast between the operatic and the deathgrowls is more atriking. none the less a tip of the cap dor a flawless delivery. also i have to ask floor where she gotbthat legendary Ebony armor from ^^

  53. I.... W....

    That note @2:12 though...just when you thought GLS and Beste Zangers was the only place to hear a long note, Floor
    kills it here, and even with a change from, and then back to, that note -- all in the same breath.

    My God, so lucky I'm living at the same time as Floor. Nobody who will ever come after will be able to be as versatile as Floor, nor have her range. So grateful...

  54. A.... M....

    Shes naturally talented. Glad this group found her

  55. �.... 8....

    ♥️🔥
    ¡Mi corazón se estremece al escuchar a esta mujer, es impresionante la voz que tiene!
    Si bien, Tarja (magnífica y única) fue lo mejor que tuvo Nightwish en un principio (indudablemente) pero tanto Tarja como Anette (vocalista que no tuvo el potencial para esta banda, ni lo más mínimo) cumplieron su ciclo.
    No hay nada que me haga pensar de otra manera, FLOOR JANSEN es JUSTO LO QUE NIGHTWISH NECESITABA, impecable, incomparable, espléndida, potente y única con esa energía que envuelve y hace vibrar hasta el alma. 🖤🔥

    �.... 8....

    Totalmente de acuerdo contigo, sobre todo con eso que dijiste de que "Floor Jansen era justo lo que Nightwish necesitaba" porque la verdad que sí, ha sido lo mejor para Nightwish en estos últimos años y ahora ya me es imposible imaginar un álbum o un concierto de Nightwish sin la voz increíble de Floor Jansen.

  56. R.... B....

    As always, Nightwish gives the performance of a lifetime! I have seen many, many bands perform. Kiss would look like amateurs against Nightwish! No band that I have ever seen is even close to this level...

  57. G.... ....

    Dear Floor, now that you have totally mastered the old Nightwish songs,thus "conquering the darkest places" & healing the old wounds of the band ,we expect the next & most epic chapter in the history of Nightwish,with you on vocals ,to be released in 2020. You are our spititual healer & the queen of our hearts.Thank you.

  58. P.... ....

    Привет из России!

    P.... ....

    Привет из Финляндии!

  59. S.... C....

    I cant wait to see the day they play live with the full orchestra. It's gonna be the most epic thing ever.

  60. J.... �....

    Floor Jansen♥️♥️♥️🤘

  61. D.... I....

    As punk as Nightwish gets.

  62. M.... V....

    Awesome!

  63. L.... N....

    Tack, Så grym låt vilket jäkla drag. TACK

  64. m.... m....

    i really wish they'd perform the escapist live one day

  65. V.... ....

    That is some tight ass shit

  66. L.... L....

    awesome performance of on their best songs ever! directly to my heavy metal episode!

  67. A.... s....

    Muy buena cantante floor pero Nightwish sin Tarja es una bandita más del montón

    A.... s....

    Y Tarja sin Nightwish es una cantante más del montón ;)

  68. Z.... D....

    Anyone else waiting for RVA to get sunk into this?

  69. K.... ....

    Pure perfection! I Adore you!

  70. M.... M....

    3 days!

  71. s.... _....

    What a pity Floor wasn't part of Nightwish from the beginning.. I want all of the old songs rerecorded with her voice ❤️

  72. j.... d....

    Holy shit. This is out of this world! 🤘🤘 An floor damn 🔥🔥 hope My Mother will get me this for Christmas on vinyl 🎶🎶🎶

  73. M.... B....

    To those of you who wanted a DVD version,

    A limited edition DVD version is now available only from the official Nightwish shop https://www.backstagerockshop.com/products/nightwish-decades-live-in-buenos-aires-dvd

  74. S.... G....

    I want everyone to repost this: FLOOR THE QUEEN OF METAL

  75. E.... G....

    Live from Buenos Aires? I see what you did there..

  76. C.... M....

    This outfit reminds me of Xena, the warrior princes... An Amazon... I think it just reflects the power of her voice

  77. J.... L....

    I donno why I watch this every morning before go to work.....

  78. J.... M....

    ilman tarjaa ei olis nighwhissii eikä ilman nightwissii oli tarjaa eli kumpi hävisi luulen et tarja

    J.... M....

    Jari Mäkiranta Kirjoitin Tuomaksen väärin.

  79. T.... P....

    Unpopular opinion: Floor>Tarja
    Am I alone?

    T.... P....

    I loooove Floor but I also enjoy Tarja's time with the band. I enjoy as much putting the studio version of oceanborn as I do EFMB and I enjoy as much listening to From wishes to eternity as Wachen 2013. Let's not compare all the wonderful singers of our favorite band but enjoy the present. I'm a Canadian who already has Tix for both Amsterdam shows so I'm not just fanboying Tarja

    T.... P....

    You are not alone;)

    T.... P....

    This is a very popular opinion

    T.... P....

    Not a very unpopular opinion these days.

    T.... P....

    @swankysweller They are both so unbelieveable, so its useless to compare them anyway

  80. F.... ....

    This is so addictive. I can't get over it. Hittin' hard the replay button.

  81. J.... 3....

    I been gone awhile but damn the drummer like... gained weight and... aged 20 years and.... changed his face.... still plays great though! 🤘

    J.... 3....

    LOL....New drummer

    J.... 3....

    lol! Even he changed his name!

  82. D.... ....

    I've been out of the game for so long last I checked anything by Nightwish they still had Annette on vocals. Now I don't mean this as a knock on Annette, but it sure is nice that they have a singer these days with the proper vocal range for playing their old stuff.

  83. n.... m....

    This woman is mythic!!!!

  84. O.... M....

    Can't stop watching this 😍

  85. Y.... S....

    16.000 :D

  86. G.... A....

    100% Nightwish!!!!!!!!! Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  87. V.... J....

    I prefer Floor over Tarja but I think people have sadly forgotten how epic and fantastic Tarja was.

    V.... J....

    Totally agree, I'm in aww in front of Floors versatility, stage presence, and power but when I hear old tracks I reminisce about that "Tarja tone" that made me float in concerts. But anything after 2006, I love Floors versions so much

  88. G.... F....

    Why are the 2 songs released like some of the most unknown nightmarish song?

  89. B.... S....

    Kai Hahto is such a bad ass:) Wow!!!

  90. C.... *....

    Only LOVE! Damn how much can u love a band? I would sell my freaking Soul for NW with Floor 4ever!. *-*

  91. R.... A....

    Floor tem um vozeirão da peste, nightwish acabou quando tarja foi expulsa da banda e aos poucos as influencias da banda como Jukka por exemplo sairam da banda, a escencia da banda se perdia! Tive uma banda cover deles, até o ONCE!

  92. �.... �....

    Деградирует команда , жаль ! Флора ну что за безобразие ?

  93. �.... �....

    it's power metal fuck
    it's very fucked musik/ but it only my things

  94. E.... ....

    man this is *HEAVY*

  95. P.... J....

    Kai Hahto and the Deep Dark Drumset

  96. J.... F....

    sexi lady:)

  97. r.... d....

    the last verse of this song is so satisfying. ♥️

  98. t.... k....

    Please live in japan !
    ナイトウィッシュ大好き!

  99. S.... ....

    Hahaha I have a hunch that Kai was living for this tour so he could finally flex his drumming skills a little :D Oceanborn in general is technically really hard to play for pretty much all the instruments in the band so I love it when they play them live
