🤩👍💥💯🎼 Nice summery surroundings to react to this track, including the seagull´s squeeking... Just wishing the people all around the wörld could realize how much we, the hoomans here in the Nordic hemisphere actually appreciate this short, less - snowy period of the year. Neat reaction mi lady and hopefully you´re having a wonderful summertime...(Wherever she may roam) 🤘😎💙🎶
Moi, kiitos taas kommenteista. Katso "Nightwish - Yesterwynd (making of Documentary) jakso 4. Museon ihmiset kertoo millaista oli työskennellä videon parissa. Katsot tietysti muutkin jaksot, taitaa jo kahdeksan osaa ilmestynyt. Lyhyitä videoita.
I have watched the music video at least 100 times...probably more...and it's the most unique music video I have seen. In my 30's....back in the mid 1980's, I would watch MTV just to relax after a stressful day of work! Nightwish is beyond any other band around when it comes to creativity! I imagine Tuomas helped design the video!
One of the criticisms from other reactors who listened to the song without the video was that the intro was too long. I think the song definitely needs the video to give it context. A great piece of work however you listen to it.
This is what unconstrained genius looks and sounds like, dear Heline. Tuomas is a visionary and he does exactly what he pleases and goes wherever his muse takes him. It's on us to keep up and follow along. That he leaves many behind is no surprise. This... this composition is fucking epic. And it's as deep as the Marianas Trench and with more layers than a baklava. You can watch and listen to this 50, 100 times and still be rewarded with new information, new insights. The owl - avatar of Athena, goddess of wisdom. Floors plunge and deep dive into a blank page of an edition of Darwin’s On the Origin of the Species. The cloud of butterflies represents the myriad of the smallest events upon which our existence turns (the butterfly effect). The butterfly was also regarded as an emblem of the soul by the ancient Greeks. Even the relentless pace of the beat symbolizing the inevitability of the passage of time, the densely layered chorus of our ancestors, the ghostly presentation of the band members. Troy's deeply emotional rendering of the last verse. The ghostly sighs of the chorus at the very end as we embrace the light in our final moments. Layers upon layers and multiple meanings, folks. Nightwish doesn’t make songs or albums - in recent years, they have published portfolios of art where the nature of our existence is the subject matter. This, it would seem, has been disappointing to a number of the members of the community. I’ve seen so many complaints about this masterpiece coming from people who have little or no understanding of what’s going on. If you’re here for Floor or the head bang, then you’re most likely going to be disappointed and you’ll find lesser amusements available to you elsewhere. Tuomas, Floor and Nightwish doesn’t need your approval. For some, this has moved past your understanding or inclination to understand. Tuomas is an erudite man with a deep love of this world and for this existence. He is a man hungry for comprehension, for understanding and for love. This existence is awesome if you would only take the time to grasp for understanding. The glittering beauty of mathematics, music as the voice of God, the natural world with its "endless forms most beautiful". It's all there for the beholding. But you have to reach out for it, grasp it, you must have a savage thirst for comprehension as the price of admission. This quote from Richard Dawkins from The Greatest Show on Earth is the perfect expression of what Tuomas is up to: “After sleeping through a hundred million centuries we have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life. Within decades we must close our eyes again. Isn’t it a noble, an enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun, to work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it?"
I wonder if in a concert if they would speak the opening bit about the ancestors or maybe find a way to sing it. Although they could put it on the screen, I think it would lose something. I'm surprised you think it might be too long for radio. I know most songs are curated for a short time, but starting with the 1970s a song would come along and be longer. Queen did a longer song (about this long). I don't know though since I stopped listening to radio a couple of decades ago. I buy/download music to my phone and play it when I travel. I download it in case reception is poor. I have external storage which has lots of room. If I'm local things are too close to listen to music (I live in a small town). Great content from you as always.
Thank you Heline for this reaction ! I guess NuNu might like especially the free-diving sequences. YOU are because of a million loves; we are. Shouldn't we be more aware, thankful and humble for all of them ? And appreciate and care more about all life and nature around us. Your surrounding gives a precious example 👏🎼🎶👏🏡💚👍
Your beautiful lakeside location reminds me of the Ontario Canada Muskoka Canadian Shield rock country area where my family had a cottage. Enjoyed your reaction. Have you ever listened to the Moody Blues musuc, which frequently featuring the flute?
I believe that the composer, and whole band, would not care less if a radio station thought it was too long. If the do they should leave proper music to the adults and stick to 3 minutes of autotuned, trendy pap. If people cannot comprehend the concept, lyrics, music and brilliant video perhaps they should go back to the nursery and keep banging their tin drum.
I've been listening to it on Spotify which I believe is the track without all of the sound effects that were added for the video. I assume that version will be the one on the album. I think you picked up on some of the bits from the previous two albums as this next one is the final part of a Trilogy.
cause there is such a nice wiew what your video has like Finnish summer wiew! terkkui sulle ja kiitos tästä videosta Nighwish on mun suosikki bändi siitä asti kun Floor tuli 2012!
Haha, minullapa on aito Nightwish "Est. 1996" -muki. Se on musta, joten sitä ei tarvitse ikinä pestä. 😂 Tämä video on parhaimpia näkemiäni - ehkä jopa palkintokamaa. Vapaasukeltajat ovat oikeita immeisiä - ei mitään cgi:tä. Jonkin verran on partaa päristetty siitä, onko Floorin ääni liian "low in the mix" kertsissä. Ehkä, mutta se on heidän taiteellinen valintansa. Toisia haittaa, toisia ei. Nightwishin singleillä ja musiikkivideoilla on aina ollut runsaasti negatiivista palautetta. Joten ei mitään uutta auringon alla. Minusta biisi on ihan hyvä, sanoma maailmaasyleilevä, ja video aivan loistava. Olisihan ne kertsin sanat voinut vähän paremmin kuulua, ettei lähes ikäiseni Troy Donockleyn olisi tarvinnut niitä lopussa selventää. Kyllä näillä eväillä silti kelpaa syksyä odottaa, ja hyvää kesää Helinelle ja kaikille! 🍀👍
Voin kyllä kuvitella että sit livenä Floor laulaa tuon kertsin kovaa. Ja minusta tämä biisi kyllä toimii ilman tuota videotakin tietenkin tuo video tuo kyllä lisää tähän biisiin. Mutta itse kuuntelin tämän Tidalista heti kun julkaistiin ja minusta toimi hienosti. Aika tyypillinen nyky Nightwish kappale. Odotan kyllä koko levyä innolla.
@@HelineFay ok. was just curious because there have been no videos for some time. i am doing better but still in physical therapy and hope to be riding again soon. take care heline and see you soon. curt. 🚴♀
A fair question about the song without the video help. I'm biased because I heard it first with the visuals, but I think it will work well as just an auditory experience, as it does for me now. I've not heard the radio mix, so no comment there.
The song without the music video is different, lacking all the sounds effects for the video. Nuclear Blast mistakenly posted the CD version on YT one day before the video was officially released. It's practically the same length, but it's more powerful and Floor's voice is a bit louder than in the video. So ... wait for the official release of the album. 🙂
На мене видеото не ми хареса. Певицата няма някакви впечатляващи гласови данни. Цялата заслуга е на аниматорите и монтажистите на видеото. Така и не разбрах защо е впечатлявате толкова много тука?!
Wonderful! Beautiful setting you have. You are the dream of all your ancestors. Enjoy your summer!
You introduced me to Nightwish. It may have saved me. For that, I'll always love you.
The seagull noises in your background fit perfectly for the music video. 😆
A perfect setting for a Nightwish reaction. Well done Heline.
Hi Heline!🦄 visuals were totally captivating I could not look away. Thanks again for introducing me to Nightwish🌿🎶
You are back..thank You❤
Lovely reaction, Heline. Beautiful setting, beautiful lady. Thank you.
🤩👍💥💯🎼
Nice summery surroundings to react to this track, including the seagull´s squeeking...

better for them to not listen to "the greatest show on earth " intro 😂😂😂
Very nice reaction 👌 and pretty blue sky in the background 🖐️
The very first version on youtube, had only a picture.
The whole theme and structure reminds me a lot of Greatest Show on Earth.
Agreed. Yes very much.
Definitly yes ! I would also add "Procession" in the sequence.
i´m asume your are from Finland! hope you are!
I am!
@@HelineFay good for you😘

I recommend VoicePlay ft Rachel Potter - Classical Chaos.

You should hear “over the hills and far away” by Garry Moore
So nice you get Nightwish on radio in EU. Unheard of in USA.
This is placed often on Planet Rock radio in UK. The intro is cut off and Troy’s bit on the end is also omitted

Still alive! Just took a bit time off and will be back soon again! Been living in my small camper with the dogs for the whole summer ^_^

I'm curious how this was played on the radio since there's a lot here where the music is minimal while the video is showing text.
*4096 ancestors - minor thing.
