About "Sleeping Sun"
"Sleeping Sun" is a power ballad and the fourth single by Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. It was released as a maxi single with three other songs on 2 August 1999 to coincide with the total solar eclipse that would occur on 11 August.
Later that same year, the band's 1998 album Oceanborn was reissued with the song added to the track listing, and it has been on every edition of the album since. In 2004, it was included on Nightwish's first compilation album Tales from the Elvenpath, and in 2005, a re-recorded version was released to promote Highest Hopes: The Best of Nightwish, another compilation released on 27 September that same year.
"Sleeping Sun" was certified as a Gold Disc in Finland with more than 5.000 copies sold, and also in Germany with more than 15.000 copies. It reached the number-two spot in the Finnish charts, and was #69 in the German Official Singles Charts.
