The band comments:
” ‘Yksi Ainoa Ikkuna’ is our tribute to Agents — a band whose influence reaches far beyond the borders of Finnish “rautalanka music”. A few of us in Horizon of Aeons have a guilty pleasure for this type of music, and Agents’ interpretation of this song stands as one of the genre’s most unforgettable moments. Even though the song’s roots reach further back than Agents, this is our way of honoring the Agents sound and celebrating a piece of Finnish musical heritage that has quietly inspired us over the years.”
