- Hauntingly beautiful - so much emotion in this song and video! It's easy to get lost in it and start thinking about your own losses in life. So powerful I might need to wait a little while before I can listen to it again.
Original video: • Nightwish - Lanternlig...
Reactions with daughters: www.youtube.co...
There is just something about Floors voice that literally touches my soul.
Like a special button in my soul that activates tears....that is crazy. I have never felt like that with any other singer
well i know now what song i wish to play when i switch to the eternal gardens above. what a stunning song
Lanternlight is definitely my personal song of the year. Period.
the more i listen to it its becoming my favorite song in my 63 years on this earth. it just hits me like never before
I concure! This song is not only beautiful, but it is also powerful! Reminds me to make sure that those that have come along afterwards will be able to say how good of a person I was, and how they will remember me fondly!
Tuomas and Troy together came up with this (until now) unexisting word 'Yesterwynde'. This whole album deals with the concept of time. 'Wynde' can be seen as wind (sailing the ocean of life encountering 'Strange Islands') and winding a clock (the watch in the snow in the video).
Good call on the slower beautiful ballad. Yes, Tuomas is the primary songwriter and wrote this one. . Although Tuomas said that it's not a sad song. When someone lives a long life , you should celebrate it , not mourn. His Dad passed during the writing of the album. Heard this is the first one he wrote after that happened.
4th single from the new album, Yesterwynde, dropped on the same day as the album. First album with Jukka Koskinen on bass. Yesterwynde is a made up word, they didn't know what to call the record, how to express what they wanted, so Troy made it up.
Floor recorded all the album vocals , in about 6 days at her home studio, 6 weeks after giving birth to 2nd daughter Lucy.
Last song on the album, it ends with a projector winding down sound. The first track starts wit ha projector winding up sound.
You did the first one "Perfume of the Timeless". The other 2 are "The Day Of..." with a music video , and "An Ocean of Strange Islands" with a lyric video.
Thanks for the great info! Agreed about celebrating the long life (as long as it was indeed long). I'll need to get to those other 2 videos. Ideally I'd listen to the whole album all at once since it sounds like a concept album, but with reactions I'll need to wait.
@@DadDaughtersandDrinks The album is the 3rd in a trilogy of albums, with Endless Forms Most Beautiful and Human:II:Nature, all with themes of life, time, evolution, science, nature, etc.
Tuomas writes, Floor sings, "PERFECTION"....
Floor describes this as a love letter to life and letting it go. the loss was Tuomas's father, so his piano becomes a symbol. Yesterwynde has been described as an emotion that does not exist in any human language. The films are memories, the lantern I interpret as the feeling in you after a loss, cold, no music because the piano is in the snow, the lantern dark, then as you go through the grief, the lantern comes back on, but the loss (piano still in the snow, but now far distant) is still there.
Thanks - I need to consider that when I rewatch the video.
👍👍A beautiful and lovely performance. 🖖❤
Floor is like a warm hug when you need it most. No wonder eyes get wet. Thank you for this reaction. Cheers from a finn in Sweden. 😃👍
If somebody is wondering, who is the white dressed gentleman at the end of Kodak film (and in the album booklet). He's pope Leo XIII (d. 1903), the first pope in film. Why they chosed him, l don't know. But he's considered been way ahead his time.
Maybe the earliest born person caught on film? He was born in 1810.
@@AnssiRai Yes, maybe so. I forgot that.
I remember stopping in front of a 16th century Flemish landscape in a museum that locked me in place .. the utter beauty of the painting at that moment felt like I had been hit up beside my head. Simply .. I was seeing an example of why museums exist .. that such beauty exists. I have felt much the same listening to this multiple times .. my eyes get moist at the end .. I'm sure someone can explain the chemicals being pumped from my brain .. possibly it's confused .. neither fight or flight .. but .. attention?
We can describe the chemicals, but it’s nothing compared to our experience. Those moments are forever.
beautiful writting I can see it and understand your writting. There the gems in your life.
You can try to explain in a scientific way why and how art moves us, why listening to some music or seeing a painting activates certain memories or emotional connections that trigger an emotional response, but mostly you either feel it or not. Why Floor's voice moves me to tears? I don't know, but it happens. I don't know what parts of my brain or my soul Nightwish touches, but it happens and I'm very happy about it.
It's a chemical called life 😊@@dagonluke
@@j.f.l.bousquet1998 Maybe it's the inner child that hears and sees. The language in purity and innocence. Like the smile of a child makes you realize that you live
The "wynde" part (pron as in wind a handle, rather than wind that blows) is a medieval British word denoting time passing. So when Troy sings about walking "into the forest of Yesterwynde" at the end, it's a quiet acknowledgement that we will all eventually move from being part of our own present to being part of someone else's past.
The word is yesterwynde, that is also the name of the album. I dont think it's a proper word, but the meaning of it is about "winding your clock and reflecting on yesterday". The theme of the entire album is essentially the generations of people and the passing of time.
Yes, it’s not a proper word. Troy invented it for the album.
There were very honest emotions weaved into this song and we feel them. I cry everytime. ❤
Thanks for that explanation. I'm all about people creating new words!
Its old English how cool is that.
What a lovely reaction to this wonderful song. Floor is otherworldly in her ability to amplify the emotions that Tuomas put into the lyrics and composition. And Troy's gentle voice rounded it out nicely. Love the whole album.
Within roughly a year and change Floor
did a solo album,
started a tour on it,
was simultaneously prepping for a NW tour,
then diagnosed with breast cancer,
had surgery and then chemo,
got pregnant ,then
started her solo and NW tours AT THE SAME TIME,
at least once opening as Floor and closing the same show with NW while pregnant,
and only stopped after collapsing backstage from exhaustion I think while maybe 7 months pregnant...
6 weeks after giving birth started recording the vocals for current NW album....
Serious Valkyrie spirit indeed, and has to have to have core muscles of steel to sign 6 weeks after birthing ...most have issues moving comfortably at all at that stage....
What's truly wonderful about this song is that, for those of us who have been with Nightwish for decades, we can read between the lines of how truly deep this song goes. This song makes so many connections to many of their previous songs in this album, as well as past albums. Then there's the easter eggs that Nightwish fans just recognize. It's like we almost KNOW the exact language Tuomas speaks, and I do not mean Finnish, or English. It's an emotion. This song is about our parents, it's about our children, it's about our decades in the sun, it's about our predestination... our endlessness in the ancient unseen stream of life. An incomplete weave that just goes on and on. It's been built by all of our ancestors, to be continued by our predecessors.
I started tearing up in the middle with "I'm in the light and flood"... That duet at the end is on another level though. When I first heard it, I started SOBBING. So I feel you.
Beautiful song
The two songs ive heard so far from the Yesterwynde album (Perfume of the timeless and Lanternlighr) has had music videos that along with the song had just awoken some kind of longing or sadness in me. Its amazing songs, very very beautiful.
Lanternlight is breathtakingly gorgeous ❣️
Not able to listen to this with dry eyes, it goes straight to your soul. It’s so fragile and strong at the same time.
What a gorgeous piece of music composed by Tuomas and so emotionally sung by Floor.
Tuomas said that Lanternlight is a song of love to celebrate live of the people that passed. In this case mainly his dad I guess.
Lovely reaction. Final song from the final album of the trilogy. It feels to me like someone saying goodbye to family and friends as their life comes to the end. Loads of beautiful imagery in the lyrics of seeing the end, of reminding those we love that we will always be present, of lamenting the unfinished things we leave behind (as is always the case), and then walking "to the trees". Since Tuomas is famous for writing lyrics for multiple interpretations I could also see this song where the narrator is death personified, much like the way the lyrics in Music were. A third way I see it is that the lyrics aren't necessarily about a person but are instead a metaphor for humanity and our walk through the eons of our existence which would fit well with the themes of the album trilogy. A number of references to Auri and other Nightwish songs. "I am in the light and flood" and " I am in the four winds" IMO are shout outs to the Auri songs Light and Flood and The Name of the Wind, very beautiful instrumental that have a similar feel. For me the line "I am you who climbed off your back" gives me Decades in the Sun vibes and of course "To the meadows I go" is tapping into the same symbolism and meaning as Meadows of Heaven. Heartachingly beautiful song and a perfect bookend to the album and trilogy.
This song is deep and touches deep.
It‘s about the ones we lost but who are not fully gone.
I`m in the light and flood
I`m in the four winds
I am the waves shaping pebbles flawless gems
I am the snow on your palm
When even Floor has teary eyes while recording the video …
Tuomas lost his father in 2021 and this is his love song to his father's memory. Yesterwynde is a word created by Tuomas and Troy. They were looking for a word to describe a sense of nostalgic memories for the past and the people we have lost on our journey.
Love the channel! and great Reaction! Rock on! Liked and Subbed!
