Outstanding tune, and brings a lump to my throat every time I now hear it. Jethro Tull (ish) I suppose, but Nightwish polishes it into a gem. If there is a folk song that inspired this though, i'd love to hear it.
An old man by a seashore At the end of day Gazes the horizon With sea winds in his face Tempest-tossed island Seasons all the same Anchorage unpainted And a ship without a name Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world Showing the way, lighting hope in their hearts The ones on their travels homeward from afar This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago The albatross is flying Making him daydream The time before he became One of the world's unseen Princess in the tower Children in the fields Life gave him it all An island of the universe, oh Now his love's a memory A ghost in the fog He sets the sails one last time Saying farewell to the world Anchor to the water Seabed far below Grass still in his feet And a smile beneath his brow This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago So long ago So long ago This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind so long ago So long ago
I suspect this is a folk song that Nightwish recorded their version of and published on the Dark Passion Play album. Not knocking it by any means, but it shows their versatility as a musical group. The addition of Floor Jansen after Anette Olson moved on was good for the band as well, I think, and I hope they can make many more albums with Floor afterwards. And if Ms Turunen ever decides to return to Nightwish after her solo journey, I say keep them both!
well maybe she uses shorts underneath but I've seen her wear stuff way more revealing, that infamous body suit, so this is nothing in comparison... she is definitely not that shy or concerned.
Hamster Munchies that catsuit www.blingcheese.com/image/code/30/floor+jansen.htm I have to say that from behind it looks even more, how to put it.... slutish?
Hamster Munchies Not a fan of hers but reckon her singing abilities but when it comes to outfits she is definitely a bit... ok everyone dresses as they like and she has been improving in her choices.
у нее исполинский для женщины рост в 183см и почти всегда платформа или шпильки 10 см. Если я рядом с ней встану на сцене, то моя макушка будет на уровне ее подбородка.
Marco's voice remains the most understated part of Nightwish's brilliance. Incredible range and strength.
I am sad I won’t get to see this live currently. I love this song. ❤️
i like how the crowd sings along word for word. i did too in this video. great song.
I think that this song is so crowd friendly is not coincidence.

Floor Jansen é a rainha do metal sinfônico.
Linda ,e a melhor de todas!
Ela é maravilhosa. O que cansa são esses lixos fãs das cantoras chutadas falando bosta em todo video que tem a Floor kkkkkkkkkkkk
La Mejor Voz Femenina Del Mundo En La Mejor Banda Del Mundo Nightwish
An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With sea winds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way, lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world's unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all
An island of the universe, oh
Now his love's a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
So long ago
So long ago
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago
So long ago

I disagree, kasper38100. This song was made after Tarja were fired and this isn´t a song she could sing, it´s true but I also love Tarjas voice.
Emppu so sweet
I'm the only one wondering how she can move from side to side in that skirt and not flash the crowd her knickers?! O_o
well maybe she uses shorts underneath but I've seen her wear stuff way more revealing, that infamous body suit, so this is nothing in comparison... she is definitely not that shy or concerned.
Infamous body suit?

Ligeia Noire
I don't think I'll ever unsee that!
As a big fan of all of her voice since from AF to present I wonder how I haven't seen it until now.

Floor's voice + Marco's = oooh.. I dunno..
шикарная женщина)))

Whao. did your camera suddenly get water in it's ears at 4:55? lol.
@kaspar38100 tarja never sang this song
esse é o velho MARCO HIETALA.
I dont know, when I watch it its normal ;)
Why "Nightwish ft Floor"? Floor IS Nightwish.
she was only stepping in for Anette at the time. Officially declared member of the band in 2013
Truth is that Tuomas IS Nightwish, otherwise there would not be songs for anyone to sing...
Why the hell is this song not in "showtime, storytime"? I just don't get why they didn't play it in Wacken...
Because on festivals they dont play slow songs ...
Jeah, i wonder that too...
Jethro Tull is a member of Nightwish?
no. I think you're thinking of Ian Anderson, and they look nothing alike lol
pretty sure he was referring to Troy
ermosas damas
je préfère la version de la tournée DPP avec le passage de la leçon de piano à la fin :)
This song is only for Anette next to Marco.
Wow floor sucks at this song she ruins marcos Badass voice préefer Anette or tarja in this song
Tarja's widow, she never sang this song. The fanboy is so much that it comes to blind the person hahahaha Tarja's fans are like a trash!
@@ShebangsPrP yes poor little souls lol
