Info about song
"The Islander" is the tenth track on symphonic power metal quintet Nightwish’s Dark Passion Play album. It was released as a single on May 21, 2008, and the video itself premiered on April 14, 2008[3]. On the day of release, "The Islander" topped the Finnish Charts, entering at #1 entirely on physical sales. The song is highly influenced by folk music rather than the symphonic power metal Nightwish usually play, and uses only acoustic guitars, rather than electric. It also uses some keyboard effects and (in the end of the song) drums. Marco Hietala sings the whole song with only backing vocals from Anette Olzon. He also wrote most of the music for the song, unlike most others, which were written by Tuomas Holopainen. The song used guest musician Troy Donockley who is featured on several instruments.
