The singer is Tuomas's wife, Johanna Kurkela, who is a Finnish singer. This is the soundtrack to an imagined Disney film of the animated tales of Scrooge McDuck that was never made. "The Last Sled" is another great track from the album. Tuomas, Johanna and Troy have a side project called Auri, with an album of the same name, which is wonderful. I especially love Troy singing on "Desert Flower", even though it moves me to tears every time I hear it.
Auri is magical! Their second album (Auri 2) is coming early September. Johanna Kurkela also has a project with another Johanna (also in this video, btw) which is called Altamullan Road...also magical.
It is almost like me reacting as you do it here. Same thoughts; we have a genius composer, and not only in music but in poet too. As you said we are lucky to have Tuomas here in the same time with us. His wife Johanna, has an amazing voice, and she is very popular vocalist in Finland. Thank you for this. Take care.
That picture..no..piece of art..Don Rosa drew for Tuomas is so spot on. Scrooge MC Duck standing on mountain top looking at northern lights and wide world imagining all The wonders to Be found. That is Tuomas 😍
Tuomas imagines all the Nightwish songs and lyrics into existence, he sees and hears it all in his head, like a short film, before he starts. True genius man.
Some background behind this composition: ua-cam.com/video/ErfbQxqppUA/v-deo.html Tuomas is a great fan of Don Rosa, the artist drawing Scrooge MacDuck in this video. Have you ever wondered, why Tuomas is wearing a top hat at the beginning of concerts...?
I just love that this man can take something so apparently shallow, something we read/watched as kids and thought nothing more of... And gain so much inspiration for such incredible art from it.
He is the best songwriter of modern times....Mozart, Keats, Shakespeare at the same time. His wife sing so nice too and Don illustrates Disney Ducks so well. Tuomas is a big fan of them. Check also band Auri where they are together.
Yes, the world needs Tuomas's songs... I'm a fan since '98 and with every album I'm still amazed how much he keeps evolving... a song for every sizuation, emotion and mood
As you can see from this project, Tuomas is a huge Disney fan. Don Rosas in this video is the graphic artist for Scrooge McDuck. Tuomas loved this Disney comic growing up as a child. That was his wife, Johanna singing this song.
Combustible, I don't know why I find it so heartening that someone I've never met seems to enjoy this song as much as I do. "To seek is to be rich." As always, take care.
Heard this many times but I just notice one new thing. There is two geniuses in this one. Don Rosa is drawing and storytelling Genius too. Donald Duck and Scrooge MacDuck comics are very popular in Finland. The way comics tell stories takes you with them just like Tuomas's songs do, time just lose it meaning for awhile and you go with story. Just like as kid i could read 200 pages Donald Duck, I can spend two hours listening Tuomas's music.
The two Johannas singing in this song have a band together called Altamullan Road, beautiful music. Johanna K., Tuomas and Troy have a band called Auri, also very beautiful music.
It is amazing isn't it! Tuomas makes the most beautiful compositions, i have not heard a nightwish song, that wasn't amazing, on a cd or dvd, i did not skip one song . I think hé is one of a kind, but also very modest, simply a beautiful human. I loved your reaction, and their is more where this came from , so i can't wait, bye.
Only just recently subscribed although have seen your reactions pop up on my feed and checked them out. I like how you seem to sense deeper meanings in music and your face says you are feeling it. We've got this Scrooge McDuck- album at home and I promise you the whole album is pure marvellous cinematic excellence. Some of it is just instrumental, some have vocals. It is one of my favourite albums. And even without knowing anything about Donald Duck-comics, the scenery and atmosphere of this album is amazing! I highly recommend listening to the whole album. It's on UA-cam. Thanks for your great reactions! 👍
It's about time you start listening their new album "Human/Nature"....Tuomas's writing is some of the best he has ever done, and Floor's vocals are beyond remarkable....
You will love Auri - a side Project with his wife Johanna, who is singing in this, along with Troy. Gorgeous as well. We are all so lucky to have him creating for us all.
There is nothing like music that makes you happy 😃 I must say anything and everything Tuomas NW, Marko, Floor, Kai have made and I have experienced makes me happy 🔥🤘
More Tuomas genius? No problem. What you just heard is part of an album and the other songs are great too. Try The Last Sled for example. Then there is the Auri album of course, featuring Johanna and Troy. Try Night 13, a song that Floor wants to have played at her funeral (may it never happen). Auri 2 album is coming out in September iirc.
Tuomas was with to make a song called "Lohtu" that was made to fund new childrens hospital in Finland. Finnish known stars singing, all put their input on the song and it. Is. A. Beautiful. Song. I highly recommend listening to it, even if it's in Finnish, there are english translation to the song. If not, I can translate it for you 👍
I reckon you'll dig Marko's new stuff Stones. Flat out rock. Or go back to Tarot for 80s hair metal fun. Floor making a guest appearance in Ayreon doing Valley of the Queens - just gorgeous with 3 of the Queens up there. And yeah I'm so very glad Tuomas is clearly in a better headspace these days. Of course he's with a partner who sings like an angel. I really love it when couples work together on a project. Spiritbox is a married couple's band. Nine inch nails front man Trent Reznor does movie scores & stuff a lot but he's got How to Destroy Angels & you might dig "The Space Between". There's so much awesome music out there I hope I never stop discovering or revisiting & sharing. Always dig your reactions & have a good one 🤘
I learned to read with Duck comicks at age of 4 or 5 And still they fascinate me at age of 54 🤣 Great stories and actually some are really adult ones I was so Happy when i learned that Tuomas is a nice fan too 👍
Tuomas is modern day Mozart. I am glad and so happy that Tuomas with his friends are here and from Finland not forgetting Goddess Dutch Floor Jansen, living here in safe Finland.
Here is a little tip.... If you want to understand more of what's going on in this video. Backstory etc. Go watch Old Skule Nerd's reaction. He explained so much that was new to me. Much love
Don Rosas, the bespectacled gentleman, in the video was listening to the song as he drew! 100% the world NEEDS Tuomas! Wizard and Vampire - does the man age!? I forget who the other female vocalist is beside Johanna but I'm sure someone will let you know (and remind me!?)
All u need to say is Metal Mozart or Tuomas and all know what u mean. BTW that woman singing(dark haired) is Tuomas's wife Johanna from Tuomas's, Johanna's, and Troy's band called Auri
Tuomas is a real genius, he is realy one of a kind as composer and person.....subt....please more Nightwish, Tuomas, Floor, Marko. Nightwish have the best composer and the best players and vocalisten 😊🤘😍
Hello from Avignon - France, if you love magical music, beautiful voices may I suggest you : Euzen Cruel all By Myself live Eivor : true lover (accoustic) - Falling Free (a Must see !!) Lara Fabian : Je suis malade Songleikr Ulvetime Jean Jacque Goldman : Juste Après - Ensemble a "canon song" Anneke Van Griesbergen : Agape The Gathering : Like Fountains live Within Temptation : Neverending story Therion : Perennial Sophia - live 2007 Lacuna Coil : Senzafine Epica : Chasing the Dragon Enjoy ! Have a great day :)
Wonderful reaction. We love that you are open to anything and everything related to Nightwish. Tuomas is incomparable and such a treasure to our world. Going to ask you to react to our favorite NW performance that is very melodic, yet full of high energy. "7 Days to the Wolves" from Wembley Arena, 2015. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/XvsfwAPbWXc/v-deo.html Stay safe and enjoy the ride.
If Disney had any sense they would have allowed Tuomas, Floor and Nightwish create so many magical moments for us all. But no. While we all go down this rabbit hole with this band and its members, Disney, IN MY OPINION, disappear down a shithole.
@@HighlyCombustibleReacts I agree but I still apologise if I have upset anyone. Happy to focus on the music and genius of Tuomas. Plus as someone said elsewhere the vocals by his wife Johanna Kurkela are beautiful. Great reaction by the way.
Imagine if they did a Nightwish Disney movie were Floor is a superhero who mesmerises enemies with her voice. Or Floor as a metal Disney princess. A girl with a beautiful voice overcomes struggles and becomes the singer for one of the biggest metal bands in the world. Add Floor's character and have the boys help her to fulfill her destiny. All accompanied by Nightwish music. I would pay good money to see this.
I can't believe it. A whole video without any interesting comment. Did you upload this one only to say genius, cool and smile? Good luck with wasting peoples' time
Tuomas's musical IQ is beyond these realms..and voice of his wife Johanna is so beautiful and delecate😊👍🏻❤
It also her reading the poem in shoemaker, if I am not mistaken? Yes she has a very beautiful delicate voice.
should check out Auri its Tuomas Johanna and Troy
I think Tuomas is our national treasure ❤️
Along with Marko's beard🤘
Kyllä! Samaa mieltä. 😊
You put emoticon of Marco's beard upside down haha. 😂
Finland is indeed blessed by both of those wonders! Best regards from the UK!
Lova ya man! Your reactions are very precious!
This is how your hobby projects sound if you're good enough!

Was that Empuu on guitar????
@@mikegershon8528 no
@@mikegershon8528 It was a guy called Mikko Iivanainen who is, apparently, a Finnish jazz guitarist.
@@jeannettesimpson9778 And he's the husband of the other Johanna.
Such a masterpiece! His wife's voice is mesmerizing!
The entire album is beautiful. As hxc says, the man is a genius.

It must be really awesome to be a fantastic composer married to a lovely woman who has an astounding, delicate voice.
Yes.... Who also goes to work to work his musical magic with Floor Jansen and the wonderful Nightwish band members 🙏😊👍
That picture..no..piece of art..Don Rosa drew for Tuomas is so spot on.
Scrooge MC Duck standing on mountain top looking at northern lights and wide world imagining all The wonders to Be found.
That is Tuomas 😍
Nightwish has been one of the major reasons I have been able to stay relatively sane for the past 25 years
My power music. Working as a LPN nursing elderly and also in terminal care. Greetings from Tampere. Stay safe!
You ain't kidding man
Same. I'm 41 now and I've been introduced to Nightwish by my best friend with From Wishes to Eternity DVD. Haven't stopped since. It was in 2001.
Tuomas imagines all the Nightwish songs and lyrics into existence, he sees and hears it all in his head, like a short film, before he starts. True genius man.

Beautiful song, and a great compliment to Don Rosa and Disney works. Admire both Tuomas and Don Rosa very much.

Tuomas is without doubt a musical genius !! Love all his compositions whether with Nightwish or not !!
Him, his wife and Troy have a side project called Auri....it's sort of Folk music....soo good.

I feel like little kid again.. Thank you Toumas!! And thank you for this great reaction.. .Gonna wipe my tears now hehe
Combustible, I don't know why I find it so heartening that someone I've never met seems to enjoy this song as much as I do. "To seek is to be rich." As always, take care.
I find it extremely heartening that you are all here on the voyage with me! I appreciate you and your kind words.

I love this,the whole album is fantastic, hope you to more from it. And yes Tuomas is a musical genius .thankyou.
Said it for years. He is a same kind of genius like Beethoven, Mozart, Tjaikowski etc. (Great composers of old).
The two Johannas singing in this song have a band together called Altamullan Road, beautiful music.
Johanna K., Tuomas and Troy have a band called Auri, also very beautiful music.

Wow, that was a beautiful song and video. Thanks for introducing me to new stuff!
Another singer is also Johanna (Iivanainen) and her husband plays the guitar solo. So, two couples performing in this video.
You will love Auri - a side Project with his wife Johanna, who is singing in this, along with Troy. Gorgeous as well. We are all so lucky to have him creating for us all.
I think you're almost ready for Dead boy's poem. Buenos Aires 2018.
Seconded!
This song is a part of a whole album of Scrooge's adventures to Alaska composed by Tuomas.
Thank you!
Anything from this album would be worth listening to. "Music inspired by the Life and Times of Scrooge"
I adore Johanna's voice. The entire album is beautiful
There is nothing like music that makes you happy 😃 I must say anything and everything Tuomas NW, Marko, Floor, Kai have made and I have experienced makes me happy 🔥🤘
I also think of Tuomas as a musical wizard (and our metal Mozart). I agree, the world needs the genius of Tuomas.
More Tuomas genius? No problem. What you just heard is part of an album and the other songs are great too. Try The Last Sled for example.
Then there is the Auri album of course, featuring Johanna and Troy. Try Night 13, a song that Floor wants to have played at her funeral (may it never happen). Auri 2 album is coming out in September iirc.
Now officially you saw Tuoma's wife Johanna Kurkela who is the lead singer and the blonde back vocalist is Johanna Livanainen , the guitarist's wife .
Tuomas is creating musical/lyrikal magic.
You should check out his, Troys and Johannas side project Auri. They bring out a new Album on September 3rd!
