Tuomas wrote this one after his father died. It is a tribute to all the loved ones we lost. It took several takes to record this one as Floor could not keep the tears in. She is a high sensitive person, so she feels all songs very deeply.
💔 Damn.. Well, if that didn't make me wanna give them a hug even more 🥺
The images in the background are there to represent your memories of your parents or ancestors. Memories of the people who shaped the person that you became. They are the Perfume of the Timeless.
"The perfume of the timeless" ❤️ Dayum..
I think this might be the most beautiful song ever, just achingly beautiful.
This song is written by Tuomas, as a ode to hes Father that passed away in 2021, Floor sings absolute beautiful on this, and Troy joining at end, perfect!! I lost my Father 6 years ago, and my mother 5 years ago, listening to this, will bring me memories of them, and a song of sadness, beauty and hope at same time, its a song i would consider a masterpiece, love it!!
This was the first song Tuomas wrote for the new album Yesterwynde
9:57 "Aww..." Yup, she cried when the music started. First take was like 😭 Suggestion: watch Floor's Tea Time with Elizabeth (Charismatic Voice), around the 58min mark she will tell you all about it.
You should surely react to A ocean of strange islands from new album yesterwynde as well, imo Lanternlight and that one is 2 best songs on the album(my taste), however A ocean of strange islands is the epic longer track, not anything like Lanternlight, and i would also say this album in general, got many diffrent song moods, its a grand journey, with many great songs, and as i listen to album many many times now, it only got better to me, i would almost dare call it a masterpiece, as i really enjoy listening to this album, from start to finnish!!
Tryed to rank the album songs, i think its a pure masterpiece!!
i listened to the album several times by now, and i have to say,to the critics of the mix, the mix is perfect!! instead of just getting Floor, its a wall of sound, that is very much a part of creating the grand journey and atmosphere on this album.
Yesterwynde - 8,8/10
A ocean of strange islands - 10/10
The Antikythera mecanism - 9/10
The day off.. - 9/10
Perfume of the timeless - 9,5/10
Sway - 9/10
The children of Ata - 9,5/10
Something whispered follow me - 8,8/10
Spider silk - 8,8/10
Hiraeth - 9,5/10
The weave - 9,2/10
Lanternlight - 10/10
Album rank: 9,3/10
My description of this album could be this, a wall of sounds, that takes you on a journey, and songs that take you in directions you cant predict, in a good way, also very diffrent vibes in the diffrent songs, after listeng to the album several times it did grow on me, and i feel the album gives a diffrent vibe listening to it from start to finish, then when i just listened to the singles, love the album by now its a masterpiece, Tuomas is just a genius, Floor is breathtaking, Troy is a hoyful spice, and the rest of the band just amazing.!!
You were actually right, there’s sadness and also hope in this song. This song makes me smile and cry at the same time. Floor said it was quite hard to sing this one, as she got so emotional doing this. Very beautiful and intimate song. Pure perfection! One song, which is more like the usual (epic) Nightwish, is An Ocean of Strange Islands. There’s a very nice lyric video, if you’d like to react to that one.
This hits straight to your soul. 🥹
Hope, a Light in the Darkness. It's always both. 😄 Take care of yourself 🤗 alex
Don't doubt yourself Chief! Good to see you back.
Best song on the album at the moment. Tuomas gets better with every album. Floor gets even better over the years.
Although she feels her lower registers are her least powerful, they are the best part of her range, in my view.
Hiraeth is good too but Tuomas says the standout is Tlhe Children of 'Ata.
Last night brought the heaviest of snows. Could that be a metaphor for the death of his father? Sending me to the drowning moon. Drowning in tears?? I believe the first person verses (I am the secret stream) are spoken by his deceased father. I watched an interview in which Tuomas said his belief is that the atoms which formed our bodies while we were alive, become a part of the earth and a part of nature after our death.
We, in the present, walk the wynde (narrow lane between houses/homes) carrying the lantern lights of love from our ancestors who shaped us. We in turn, pass the lantern lights to our descendents as we slowly walk into the forest of yesterwynde to join our ancestors. Tuomas wrote this beautiful piece as he reflected on his father's death. Most people get lumps in their throats or outright cry listening this piece. And I must say that the cinematography captures the song's feelings perfectly by splitting the images so that Floor & the piano mirror-shift from seeming to be part of the film (the past) and the present. The snow-covered piano, as well as the bench, the half-sunken and upturned boat in the frozen lake represent the past. But it's a past that was fun, not sad. The plaintiff wails at the end could just be a reflection of Tuomas missing his father. Tuomas writes his songs leaving the interpretations up to his listeners though he tosses Easter eggs into his works. Please continue with your NW reactions. Thank you!
This one got me in my feels too. 💙🫂
🫂💜
Yes this song is bittersweet for sure well at least for me.
"There is not a word for it"... Yes, there is: Floorgasms!🥰
BTW Smiling is part of her singing technique
How wonderful that you have started to react to their new album😍Thank you!!
Floor is just so skilled and nice. Always touches your heart. And pretty piano music....plus Troy and Floor together🥹The "symphonicness" of this band always blows my mind,
I also like that they have not tried to photoshop her to look younger but she can look her beautiful "real" self. And you were right, not able to see if she is sad or happy. Because it is a love song to those who are not here anymore
I really missed Nightwish AND the Nightwish army. You know better than anyone that I have this soft spot for NW and I'm so glad they have so much material (plus new stuff now) for me to discover. I think I gotta give you a lot of credit for helping me to remember how much I enjoy their music and for staying on this path of discovery 🫂🥰
I definitely agree with the whole natural look of Floor too, I really do like that she's just her beautiful, natural self. I wanted to mention this in the reaction but didn't want to come across as rude lol!
P.S. it's almost October 🤭❤️
@@Chief322 😁🥰
@@Chief322 Great minds with the Floor look. She is beautiful!!
Missed ya, Bud! Good reaction.
I missed you guys TOO! Thank you 🫂🥰
🤗🍒🤘🏻 Great Job, what an amazing song huh 🎶🎼 and welcome back
Great to see you again Chief! The background is nostalgia for the past. A beautiful tribute to the people we have all lost on our journey. Floor is sad, but still hopeful for a life well lived. Life itself is a bit up and down.
Now you need to check out "An Ocean of Strange Islands". A little bit more up tempo.
For me it is a bittersweet love song to human life. You are at the end of your live, watching back with loss and joy at the same time, while giving comfort for those left behind, because nobody leaves the world completely. Some saying, at the end of your life in the moment of death you will see your whole life with your inner eye passing, seeing your ancestors and your remaining loved ones … the song soft fading out and the snapping film roll is (for me) the peaceful end of life.
Fuckin’ wonderful - well said.
Pure Floor. I love this song.
Btw, this song was Floor's pick for a single, it made her cry when she first heard it (I had the same reaction to this song, it's so touching).
Tuomas lost his father a few years ago and he wrote this song out of that emotion. The message is to enjoy life, as it's beautiful and should be celebrated instead of grieved when it ends.
always good to see another reaction. i love how emotional you get when i song really touches your heart. :)
"PERFECTION"....
Yay, finally back to NW! If i may suggest, Shoemaker live at hellfest
I think he has done it?

Great reaction🤘
Hello-hello-hello you gorgeous human, missed you! ❤
Welcome back. The background images are actually relevant. Tuomas was inspired to write the album when he realised that looking at old black and white images that had been colourised made him feel a connection to the people in those images. He realised that there wasn't a word in the English language (nor presumably in the Finnish language) to describe the connection that we feel between us and our long departed ancestors, and so he and Troy between them coined the word Yesterwynde (with wynde pronounced as in rewind rather than the the weather) to reflect the path that we tread between our ancestors and our descendants. The background projections are therefore very old black and white film that has been colourised. We share a connection between us and those images.
The light of the lantern is hitting her face. The ones who have gone to the meadows are lightning our path, that's why I believe Floor seems sad and then hopeful in that frame.
The song doesn't end with sad notes but with an optimistic one.
Beautiful song and message and Floor as always delivering an incredible performance.
Greetings from Finland 🤘🤩
is this song on the radio in finland
@@fredverkerk838 I have not heard this one but The day of..... is played a lot.
@@CeciA333 o thanks
Hello! I shall be in your amazing country in about 2 weeks! ❤️ It's my favourite!
@@Chief322 Welcome, hope you enjoy 🤩
You have to react to Sissel Kyrkjebø performing "The Old Castle". She is the national treasure of Norway and her voice is gorgeous. Sissel performed on the soundtrack to movies like Titanic and Lord Of The Rings.
Welcome back!
Thank you, Craig 🫂
