After the success of\u00a0Tarja<\/b>\u2019s latest album \u201cColours In The Dark<\/b>\u201d (charting in 12 countries with four Top 10 entries) and the video to her first single \u2018Victim of Ritual\u2019 reaching an enormous amount of views within three months, the second single \u2018500 Letters<\/b>\u2019 celebrates its premiere today, on October 30th, 2013.<\/p>\n

Shot in Tigre near Buenos Aires, Argentina by\u00a0Florian Kaltenbach<\/b>\u00a0who also directed the video for \u2018Victim Of Ritual\u2019, \u2018500 Letters<\/b>\u2019 is a new landmark in Tarja\u2019s video clips collection to date.<\/p>\n

For the first time in Tarja\u2019s history, the singer herself is the main character in the story line. No wonder, is \u2018500 Letters\u2019 in many ways Tarja\u2019s most private song ever. With its very personal song writing and delicate topic, it offers a great emotional insight into the artist herself. Touching the sensitive topic \u201cstalkers\u201d, Tarja allows her fans a closer look into her thoughts. \u2018500 Letters\u2019 is open to interpretation \u2013 being a mix of reality and fiction.<\/p>\n

The heavy, yet highly melodic song gets stuck in your mind after the first listen with its haunting melody and touching, exceptional vocals. Despite its very catchy key note, the bombastic sound still is full of darkness and dramatic structure and takes Tarja\u2019s song writing one step further.<\/p>\n

This atmosphere is captured perfectly in the video.<\/p>\n
