This is a perfect example of how genius Tuomas' songwriting is.. From "now I only have 3 minutes and counting" til the pendulum hits is exactly 3 minutes
When everything blew up Tuomas was suicidal but instead of actually killing himself, he wrote this song. Everytime they performed it he would have the vocals cut off in his ears so he didn't hear the lyrics and relive the pain that he felt while writing this.
Was listening to this walking a loop on my route and Mother and Father kicked in. Full tears running down my face. Mom passed almost 2 years ago, and Dad 7 years ago. Very moving song.
This song is a masterpiece, perfect in all categories.
I'm an 83 years old music lover, especially Nightwish, from Australia. When I first the title of one of your videos I thought 'Oh yeah,metal musicians, they're not going to appreciate Nightwish but I have watched 5 or 6 of them and I admire your attitude and knowledge. Great work.
Sorry, reading back it seems patronising. I didn't mean it like that. I admire your knowledge. Between you, you have more knowledge than most reactors.
The brilliance, nuance and mastery of Tuomas’ songwriting and lyrics never ceases to amaze me. If you run a timer from where he says “I have 3 minutes and counting “ it is at 3 minutes exactly when he simulates with his hand the pendulum cutting his throat. Amazing!🤘🤘
That last part will put you in a trance. Awesome music!!!
So now its done, i tunes downloaded all suite clarity albums, today i listen to all !! Peace from Austria 🤟🤟🤟
It's magical
Hiya. I forgot this reaction had those jarring interruptions! So your ears might be burning again😁. Will this be the channel for future, new Beanie reactions, btw? Because there's a LOT more Nightwish still to cover. Stay safe. All the best to you.
Repeating this, thanks
Floor Jansen, Floor Jansen, Flooooor Jansen! Hope this helps the algorithm 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️… I forgot what a great reaction this was to Nightwish’s ‘The poet & the pendulum’ … sooo much more Nightwish to react too! Is the beanie or justice ever coming back? We await … patiently…
Today, Sunday March 20th, the Beanie of Justice was dusted off, refilled, and used once again 😊
Funny enough, I didnt know who this song hit the most, as the song went on, I started I felt like the person on the left was feeling it most, but the person on the right was hit the hardest by the end, I would love to see it 5 years from now. I feel like there will be tears from all three.
Hello there! I am reaching out to my favorite reactors to see if they will be at either Nightwish show in MA on May 7th and in NY on May 8th. I'd love to say hi!
My Queen summoned me..... whats up girlzzzz
you guys should hear Nightwish - Master Passion Greed if you want your ears to bleed.
There are so many re-actors today that i heartfully enjoy'd this one, even that i saw it when it was released. Reminded me that there are still good people around, even if we don't see them every day 🥰
Have not seen you guys do any Nightwish things in a long time, are you still doing reactions?
Have you done some great music that i could share to my friends?
Have you learn anything?
Are you still alive?
🤘🎶 🖤 🎸🇫🇮
You need to check out "While your lips are still red"! I prefer the offical music video but the live version is cool too
I’m drunk as hell but let me digress. Bye the way I was born at Tacoma General and graduated from Sumner High. I now live in Skopje Macedonia 🇲🇰 and I want everyone to know don’t betray the one’s you love because it’s not worth it. I actually have tuck me in beneath the blue beneath the pain tattooed on me. I listen to this song and Alice In Chains Don’t Follow every day so that I don’t take my own life.
Great video, nightwish never fail. I'd love to see you react to Horizons by Crown Solace - they are essentially Nightwish with a unique twist :).
Masterpiece 😝👍👏 I'm thankful he only dies in part 4 of this epic story & NOT In Real Life! Nightwish Disciple From Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🏄♂️🍹
You guys know the back ground to this song? The story is as breath taking as the song. Just wondering. Side note. Watch where the bass and guitar player walks to toward the end. There was a reason for that. Great video.. Ive watched a few. prob binge watch the rest.
Say hey I'm coming back again for a second time. Longtime sub here for the rerelease from the original Suite Clarity channel.
Glad to see you here!
lol the interuptions
2 thumbs down, you all talked over that last part...unbeleivable!
you know there is a video of this song with no talk whatsoever. 🙃😆
@@johnsmith-cw3wo And your point is? 🙃 I have watched every reaction to this song..every single one. It deserves honour, not squealing infant raving ;)
Why was there a cut between McKinzie pulling a song from Beanie, and her reading the name of the song? :)
We always cut out the extraneous noise between sentences. It took a moment to read it, and thought that moment ruined the flow of the video, so I cut it right to the next spoken words.

You missed a lot of info on your back round of this song,
Kai Hahto for president!
Did you ever go read the open letter to Tarja, or her response letter?
@@NeeceLoneWolf I did. They never said anything about the letters. I wanted to know if they have looked them up since.
Good reaction thanks, I wonder if reacting to this might inspire your group. Why don't you put some of your music on your channel
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🇫🇮👍🥳
Guys, don't simp too hard on the girl (13:46) ;-)
Nice musical choice though
Hi guys! Just let you know it's pronounced "Taria".
The poet and the pendulum has to do with Tarja and the episode of her resignation. According to Tuomas, "The poet and the pendulum" was the way he found to deal with the depression after Tarja's departure. The band, and especially Tuomas, received a lot of hatred from all over the world. They lost a lot of fans. I'm going to summarize the story for you to understand why people's reaction was so negative. Tarja's resignation was a very dramatic episode. The relationship between her and the band had been bad for some time, so at the end of 2004 Tarja decided to tell the band that she would leave. The idea was to record one last album and go on a farewell tour. She wanted to announce her decision to the public and prepare fans for the vocalist change, however, Tuomas convinced her not to do so at the time. It turns out that, after that meeting, the band planned a public firing on the sly. The group wrote a letter of resignation full of attacks to Tarja and her husband. They delivered this letter to Tarja at the end of the "End of an era" show and posted it on the band's website the next day. It was a scandal. In response, Tarja wrote a letter but did not attack the band. She also held a press conference to respond better to the group's accusations. Her husband also spoke. He answered more than 150 questions from fans around the world and posted the answers on the internet. Given the reports that were brought and other available records, including videos and documentaries, a large part of the fan base revolted against the band. Faced with criticism from different sides, Tuomas fell into a depression and wrote "The poet and the pendulum" as a way of dealing with the situation. Some say that Tuomas suffered from unrequited love for Tarja. This feeling would have been the fuel for the composition of some songs.The question of Tuomas' love for Tarja is actually an old theory of fans. This theory was built even before Tarja's dismissal, and is based on old interviews (see this one, for example: ua-cam.com/video/gt0haAiGbHo/v-deo.html) and on the lyrics that Tuomas used to write. The idea of the existence of unrequited love was strengthened when Marcelo himself (Tarja's husband) spoke about the subject in the responses he gave to fans. The depression itself and the song "The poet and the pendulum" can, in theory, be read as a reflection of this love drama. Regardless of whether this theory about Tuomas is true or not, the fact is that bringing internal issues to the public was the worst choice. A lot of the band's past has been brought up and no one has come out unscathed. Because of the scandal, Tarja lost some fans and contracts for her solo career. On the other hand, the band also lost fans and had little-known events brought to a wider audience. For example, Tarja suffered an attempted sexual abuse in the middle of a concert in Guadalajara in 2000. At the time, the band continued playing as if nothing had happened, even after Tarja left the stage along with the criminal and the security guards. There are videos of the episode here on UA-cam. Later, after Tarja left, the band itself mentioned the event in its official biography. The way the band decided to fire Tarja and the facts of the past that were brought to public knowledge infuriated many fans. To get a sense of how big the fan base was in the past, look at the number of views of the first videos with Anette ("Bye, bye, beautiful" and "Amaranth"). These numbers are representative of the fan base situation at the end of Tarja's period and beginning of Anette. The first album with Anette was the band's first album ever released with UA-cam ever running. We were all curious to know who the new singer was and what she sounded like. Unfortunately Anette didn't please a large part of the original fan base, which also contributed to the band losing more fans. Anette and Floor helped to attract a different audience and reconfigure the fan base. Some old fans have returned with the entry of Floor. She is nothing new to us. For example, I've known her since her first band, After Forever. Here are some sources:

@@NeeceLoneWolf I don't know what they know or not. None of them responded to my comment. I don't even know if they ever read what I wrote. So I don't see any problems with writing again. If this bothers you, just ignore it.

Hi...I'm really sorry to say this so harshly...but you three haven't even begun to understand what this work is about. It would have been better if you had faded in the lyrics. Then maybe you would have understood that it was about Tuomas and his darkest time in his life and how he dealt with it. How he found his way out of this dark, deep hole he was in. He processed it with this work.
And one more subtle hint: The constant brief interruptions just to accommodate your gimmicks are absolutely superfluous and annoying.
Come up with something better and less annoying.
Warm greetings
the lady
Don't invite me to your comments for Nightwish if Tarja Turunen isn't there
