Background

"Innocence" was written and composed by Tarja, Anders Wollbeck, and Mattias Lindblom, and produced by Tarja. The singer describes "Innocence" as a return to the origins from the musical point of view. The song, especially the solo piano by Tarja, is inspired by classical music.

Video

The official video for the song was released on June 24, 2016.[5] Tarja explained that "The theme of the video is about a very sensitive subject that hopefully helps people to think over it. I love the film approach to the video like a short movie". The video was shot in Buenos Aires by movie director Mariano Cattaneo.[6] In the video there are scenes performed by actors, representing a family destroyed by domestic violence. At the end of the video, Tarja breaks into the room and paralyzes the family's father with a touch, saving the mother and the child.

gollark: What? How would that help people?
gollark: You should use OpenPOWER.
gollark: RISC-V isn't open enough, actually.
gollark: I kind of want smart home things, but I have no actual usecase and the maintenance burden it would add to my mess of scripts and infrastructure would likely be bad.
gollark: There are the naïve enthusiastic people who go buy consumer IoT devices and them replace then when they inevitably stop being supported, the grizzled sysadmin/developer types who have seen the horrors of modern computing and don't trust it, the mystical few who are competent enough to run their own stuff and have it work, and people who want to be/think they are that but who spend all their time recompiling the kernel on their smart fridge.
