First off, this looks awesome! Thanks for that small preview, :) However, I have a small question if you don't mind my asking? You mention just over the 3-minute mark that "this has more pictures and text" - did you mean that the Finnish version has more of both? I apologize if I misunderstood, but I'm quite curious before I order and import the English. I'd like to pick up both copies if one is more full than the other content wise, :) Thank you for your time!
MetalChickCrisis2040 Thank you for your comment. Now I realise that its really hard to understand what I meant by saying that haha. So what I meant is this. Both versions have the same ammount of pictures and text, no matter if its English or Finnish but I was talking about the overall layout of the book (no matter what language its written in), because the book itself contains more pictures than text, which means that even if I ordered the Finnish version (and Finnish is a language that I’m still learning and I’m not fluent ), my brain isnt gonna fry, cause its not just tons of endless text. As you can see in the video, theres usually a huge picture that takes at least half of a page and then theres a few lines of text. English layout and design of the book is going to be the same. Tons of pictures and some text :) I hope this helped :)
I see! Thanks for that clarification! :) I thought it'd be strange if one contained more content than the other - but I know of a few cases where that's happened, and usually I wound up only learning about it after something has gone out of print. Which is super unfortunate, but I'm glad that's not the case here. :) It's such a nicely filled book, I can't wait to get my hands on it! And good luck with your studies concerning the Finnish language!
I was really interested to buy this book....luckilly thanks to this video unpacking, I decided to be incompetent... I have expected much more, complete history of Nightwish, like an illustrated biography from the begining of his career to this day, and what? Where are Sami, Tarja, Anette? Just few past years in history of band? No thanx! Fans deserves more than this shit!
No, this book is not a biography of Nightwish. It only covers the Endless Forms Most Beautiful Era - the recording of the album + the tour... :) I still think it’s a wonderful book about a great chapter of Nightwish’s life. On one hand, I’m glad that my video helped you decide, but I still have to say that I recommend this book very much! :) Cheers!
@@MrDusan0808 Many thanx for recommendation. I am following this band from the time when only a narrow circle of relatives knew about them. For all this years it would be logical to publish a book that all fans imagine. One capital work is 100% profitable. My opinion is that book is nothing but plundering the fans, regardless of luxurious packaging. I hope You still agree with me?
@@stevabobic Yes I understand how you feel about this. I would also enjoy a book that would cover Nightwish from start to the present day. I guess every fan would love such a book, so it’s completely understandable that some people think that releasing a book that only covers one chapter of the band’s life is stupid, however I still think We Were Here is a really cool book. Maybe we’ll get one in the future, who knows :) Let’s hope!
@@MrDusan0808 Certainly we will, these are typical moves by the publisher, just to get as much fans money ad possible. All bands and their employers do it. But not with me, it makes me seriously angry! I recently bought a book THE BEATLES: THEN THERE WAS MUSIC, I am still under the influence of the content, so I comment this for NIGHTWISH. That's what I call an encyclopedia about a band. And that's what I recommend to every lover of music. Also best wishes for you, cheers! Stevan fron Serbia.
What a wonderful book.
Man nice
