    R.I.P Ann Waychoff mother of the Nightwish Army.
    June 28th, 2020 .
    Ann was a big Nightwish Fan.
    And every new person who listened to NW, she went through a little chat.
    And gave them some info about NW.
    This was her favorite song.
    And this song belongs to her.
    I like very much that Gabriel have continue Ann s work.... so her heritage is still here.

    When it comes to Floor's voice even after 4 reactions you STILL haven't scratched the surface, you are going to be pleasantly surprised OVER and OVER!!! If you wanna hear her do some growling check out "Yours Is An Empty Hope" live from WEMBLEY (she does all the growling in the chorus while the bassist sings). For an EPIC Operatic ending try "Shoemaker" Live at Hellfest or Live at Deichbrand.

    This song forever reminds us at Ann Carone Diamond Waychoff.
    Well known as the Mother of the Nightwish Army.
    She sadly left us at June 28, 2020.
    It was her favorite song.
    Rest in peace dear Ann, we will never forget You.
    And Thank You Gabriel Bardac for carrying on the flame that Ann ignited.
    Nightwish Army South Germany.

    This song is a tribute to the poem in 52 chapters, One for every week of the year, " Song of myself " by Walt Whitman 1819-1892.(one of the co-founders of US poetry). The 7th line of the song is ""Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the Ride""". The extended official studio version of this song has, at the end, a poem as a tribute to Whitman and his style made by Tuomas, the keyboard player and the mastermind of nightwish. These lines you can also see fast flahing on the ledscreen of the video you just saw.
    Bucle up, it goes very deep.
    " I see a slow, simple youngster by a busy street
    With a begging bowl in his shaking hand
    Trying to smile but hurting infinitely
    Nobody notices
    I do, but walk by
    An old man gets naked and kisses a model-doll in his attic
    It's half-light and he's in tears
    When he finally comes his eyes are cascading
    I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley
    He tries to bite me
    All pride has left his wild drooling eyes
    I wish I had my leg to spare
    A mother visits her son,
    Smiles to him through the bars
    She's never loved him more
    An obese girl enters an elevator with me
    All dressed up fancy
    A green butterfly on her neck
    Terribly sweet perfume deafens me
    She's going to dinner alone
    That makes her even more beautiful
    I see a model's face on a brick wall
    A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill
    A city that worships flesh
    The first thing I ever heard
    Was a wandering man telling his story
    It was you, the grass under my bare feet
    The campfire in the dead of the night
    The heavenly black of sky and sea
    It was us
    Roaming the rainy roads
    Combing the gilded beaches
    Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn
    Bathing in places no-one's seen before
    Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island
    Clad in nothing but the surf
    Beauty's finest robe
    Beyond all mortality we are
    Swinging in the breath of nature
    In early air of the dawn of life
    A sight to silence the heavens
    I want to travel where life travels
    Following its permanent lead
    Where the air tastes like snow music
    Where grass smells like fresh-born Eden
    I would pass no man, no stranger, no tragedy or rapture
    I would bathe in a world of sensation
    Love, Goodness, and Simplicity
    (While violated and imprisoned by technology)
    The thought of my family's graves was the only moment
    I used to experience true love
    That love remains infinite
    As I'll never be the man my father is
    How can you "just be yourself"
    When you don't know who you are?
    Stop saying "I know how you feel"
    How could anyone know how another feels?
    Who am I to judge a priest, beggar, whore, politician, wrongdoer?
    I am, you are, all of them already
    Dear child, stop working, go play
    Forget every rule
    There's no fear in a dream
    "Is there a village inside this snowflake?"
    A child asked me
    "What's the color of our lullaby?"
    I've never been so close to truth as then
    I touched its silver lining
    Death is the winner in any war
    Nothing noble in dying for your religion
    For your country
    For ideology, for faith
    For another man, yes
    Paper is dead without words
    Ink idle without a poem
    All the world dead without stories
    Without love and disarming beauty
    Careless realism costs souls
    Ever seen the Lord smile?
    All the care for the world made Beautiful a sad man?
    Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks?
    Oh, how rotten your pre-apocalypse is
    All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground
    I see all those empty cradles and wonder
    If man will ever change
    I, too, wish to be a decent manboy
    But all I am
    Is smoke and mirrors
    Still given everything, may I be deservin
    And there forever remains
    That change from G to E minor. "

    Nice reaction and very good song as every song in this concert.
    Where did you find this video though? I have not seen this in ages. It's some fan made video which i don't understand. Nightwish has nothing to do with that movie, so those movie clips does not belong there at all 😁 Song is still great though.
    Gabriel's page has list of songs that are good quality, he has collected those over time. You find good versions from there 😃www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community
