[Verse 1]
Leave the sleep and let the springtime talk
In tongues from the time before man
Listen to a daffodil tell her tale
Let the guest in, walk out, be the first to greet the morn...
The meadows of heaven await harvest
The cliffs unjumped, cold waters untouched
The elsewhere creatures yet unseen
Finally your number came up, free fall awaits the brave...
[Chorus]
Come!
Taste the wine, race the blind
They will guide you from the light
Writing noughts till the end of time
Come!
Surf the clouds, race the dark
It feeds from the runs undone
Meet me where the cliff greets the sea...
[Verse 2]
The answer to the riddle before your eyes
Is in dead leaves and fleeting skies
Returning swans and sedulous mice
Writings on the garden's book, in the minute of a lover's look
Building a sandcastle close to the shore
A house of cards from a worn out deck
A home from the fellowship, poise and calm
Write a lyric for the song only you can understand...
[Chorus]
Come!
Taste the wine, race the blind
They will guide you from the light
Writing noughts till the end of time
Come!
Surf the clouds, race the dark
It feeds from the runs undone
Meet me where the cliff greets the sea...
[Bridge]
Riding hard every shooting star
Come to life, open mind, have a laugh at the orthodox
Come, drink deep, let the dam of mind seep
Travel with great Élan, dance a jig at the funeral...
[Chorus]
Come!
Taste the wine, race the blind
They will guide you from the light
Writing noughts till the end of time
Come!
Surf the clouds, race the dark
It feeds from the runs undone
Meet me where the cliff greets the sea...
Come!

Floor is astonishingly good, especially live. I have no idea why people are complaining. She's a perfect fit for the band.
+leerobbo92 They are bitter Tarjaholics who are still unable to deal with reality even after 10 years.
+Dave Mason I love Floor, I am listening to her, i like her, but i am going back to Tarja, it's bit another, so good, quality music. :-) I think Tarja can't sing Alpenglow like Floor, but Floor can't sing Wishmaster like Tarja, they are both So good, I like also Anette, she is good in official videos (Like Storytime) Still, my favorite is Simone Simons from Epica... Sorry for my bad english... I am not really good
+leerobbo92 As a complete newbie to the band I must say it is a controversy filled comment section on every video. I would agree with this statement completely. Only I've only watched videos of Floor live, she still rocks it. That being said I've watched some early era stuff with Tarja, and while I recognize her incredible vocal talent. I tend to lean Floor's way as she does fit the metal queen role fairly well, and jive with the band perfectly. All this aside Marco the bassist/vocals is the real shining star for me. Damn that guy rocks, amazing voice and facial hair. As long as he's in there all is well in my opinion. Which doesn't matter much as I'm just new.
Shawn Powerz
You must see this band live!......trust me.
They are touring 2016 and then it's rest/sabbatical year for them.
+Shawn Powerz I absolutely agree with you. Every Nightwish lady has brought a little something to the band, and they should be respected for this. No matter the frontwoman, they were all epic in their own way. But I really can't imagine the Nightwish music without Marco, even if he's not one of the founding members. For me he's the special vocal (and bassist) thing that makes NW.
I envy the people who still haven't heard Nightwish and are about to hear them for the first time. It's a magical feeling.
As a newcomer, I can confirm that my ears are blessed
I'm not new...It's been a few years now. The passion ignites as always, the tears are as hot as the burning steel.
But it's nothing like the first time, when your soul vibrates to that same force of these words
This just happened to me! It was magical!
Literally me rn. A friend just sent me this
unfortunately this is a shadow of what nightwish was. love them but last to singers were so much better
Discovering Nightwish: One of my greatest moments in my musical life 🥰
😅😅😅
I know them since about 2000's when Traja was the lead singer, with her the music was much powerful of course but they kind of maintain the "flow" of the band so each singer is nice in her way...
welcome mate
was? what happen now?@@dolevwajsbrot6356
@@dolevwajsbrot6356 One can argue which of the two to like more. But you can't argue about Tarja has the more operatic voice and Floor has the more powerful voice.
Hey. I just had to share. Earlier this month my mom passed away. In her life, she literally worked until her body broke and was in unimaginable pain for the past 3-5 years. Even though I had seen this video hundreds of times, this time it hit me. The images of these tired old people finally getting to put away the burdens of their lives away and being able to make merry hit me and I literally cried for the first time since this happened. I know none of the guys from Nightwish are likely to see my random shit posting but still, thank you.
I'm sorry for your loss. ❤❤❤
Yeah, I also do "thank you" to artists which music came as a selvetion in dark times, even though I know that they will never know. But I want to believe that on some level they are, as we all are, touched by the feeling we share with them and their music. It is great that you menaged to find a valve for your sadness spring... it takes time and patience and being honest with your emotions, but it is the normal and fulfilling way of greaving, if this makes sense... Sending good thoughts ❤
I'm sorry for your loss. Hags your❤
Upřímně, mně, to, mrzí
Držte, se, soucit mám, vzpominejte, na, dobré, mějte se hezky, přeji hezký den
I don't care whether it is Taja, Anette or Floor. I love Nightwish. That's all!
+Thaw Tar
You are wise. ;)
Likewise. I wish every fan was like that.
rhcpgirl86
It would be a wonderful world. :)
+Thaw Tar Yes man! Once Nightwish, ever Nightwish!!
+Thaw Tar I agree. I love each of their voices and I just love Nightwish music styles. It's pointless to have a "who has the best singing voice" debate of the 3. Why are people so ignorant?
That owl in the video
Its beautiful , but sadly its one of the most famous illuminati signs :(
yeah, i know..
+Alaa Obaid who cares ? just enjoy the song
Alaa Obaid wtf guys...you still think illuminati is the real thing
Black Sabbath wtf man , you think its fake ?!
It’s hard to understand how humans can make such beautiful songs or write such beautiful lyrics
I've lost my parents and grandparents.
They'd lived hard lives.
Thing song always remind me of them.
A wish in the night, that someday somewhere...
they are happy now, relieved.
I listen to this song, whenever I think of them.
guy, R.I.P I hope you have a bright and wonderful future
I believe this is what I will show my children and grandchildren.

@JediNxf7 I just copy paste it from Google tbh 😆
They always write lyrics for a song that only they can understand :))
@@hihiglug I felt the satisfaction with you 😆🙌
@JediNxf7 nope he actually got all the lyrics right go look up the lyrics and you'll see
@JediNxf7 go on their website
This was the first song I've ever heard from Nightwish, wich made me fall in love with the band and Symphonic Metal
This is a very good song. But it feels more like a pop-rock song in a masterful metal arrangement than a pure symphonic metal. Try their earlier albums - like Oceanborn - to compare.
@@michaelgrof8441 Nightwish as a band has existed so long that each era has its own unique sound as they evolved and changed over time. Tuomas never stopped experimenting and it shows album to album. Oceanborn is one of my favorites, but I also enjoy the more pop-prog sounding later albums too.
People can enjoy both, it still falls under the category, because Floor sings opera. I love Annett so maybe I'm not the right person to be commenting lol but people did Annett dirty. The albums she took part in are some of the most beautiful albums. Just let people enjoy the music. Sometimes not everyone wants to compare things.@@michaelgrof8441
9 years ago! Seriously? Still an absolute killer of a tune.
This is a good SINGLE. A lot of people here didn't understand the purpose of a SINGLE. The song has to be short, easy-listening and, in the case of Nightwish, meant to give us some kind of preview of what the album will be. When I see "too weak", "too poppy" it makes me laugh. Heavy guitar is still there, can you tell me what is not "metal" in this song? 'Cause I can't see it... IMO this single is in the same path previous Nightwish singles' took. Ever Dream, Nemo, Bye Bye Beautiful, Storytime... In their structure, they are kind of similar, so stop complaining and wait for the album to come... This song is beautiful and it's what I expect from Nigthwish. Heavy and melodic. Sick of all these "That was better then before"... EVOLVE!
those singles you named are far heavier and more metal than Elan, for sure. i have to say elan is bit too slow, too quiet
mramo11
the first single of dark passion play was eva and was much more slower than this
mramo11 Then what about Deep Silent Complete, the single from Wishmaster? What about Eva from Dark Passion Play? Even The Carpenter is not that heavy...
mramo11 Track #2 of the single is a nudge towards Once in a heavy way, go have a listen.
Thanks! Completely agree with you!
Floor: body of a female gladiator, face of an angel and voice of a mermaid.
I couldn't have said it better. She's addictive.
more like the voice of a siren
and a husband with a SABATON 🤘🤘
The body of a Valkyrie, the face of Aphrodite, and the Voice of Galadriel
voice of a mermaid? hahahahaha. You mean a SIREN XD
The voice of that vocalist is absolutely incredible! This song is a masterpiece, the best song I've ever heard
That vocalist is none other than Floor Jansen, who is very well-known among us Americans
there's no doubt
I used to listen to this song with my newborn 8 years ago, now I'm still listening with my 2nd child ❤
Greetings from Finland!! :) Those who are acting in this video are famous Finnish actors. I dont know the bartenders name but the first one is Antti Litja who comes with "train". The cleaner in a floor is Seela Sella.(Im an actor and actually I'v acting with her.) Then comes Eva Litmanen, the washer lady. The Diver is Ismo Kallio. He passed away in 2019. The the guy with a shovel is Vesa Vierikko. Professor of acting in a Finnish Theatre Academy.
Just some information if someone wants to know.
Peace and love!!!!
Thanks
Interesting. I was indeed wondering about it. Now that you mention it, I asked my Finnish wife, and she confirmed it, she recognized almost all of them too.
The bartender is Pekka Huotari
thank you for the info
Wow... Professor of Acting. Impressive
Just beautiful. This group was just recommended to me. What a magnificent discovery.
*****
Lucky you! Now you get to listen to all the other Nightwish albums for the first time. I envy you. ;)
***** ok, two things first I love you and second I would also recommend you to listen to Lacrimosa I guess it's more your style... I don't know you should listen to it.
Was introduced a half a year ago. I'm so obsessed
Samntay Bennett
Yep......I know what you mean!......lol
***** im so glad i found them
12,000 people can't fathom the majesty of Emppu's rock n roll poses.
there are just two options:
1) these people are hardcore Tarja or Anette fans that dislike everything with Floor
2) these people haven't even listened to it in it's whole beauty
3:50 There's something about seeing such a deep man like Tuomas smiling, that just brings a big grin to my face. That's just how you know it's truly a joyous moment.
Cuz he knows he's making masterpiece after masterpiece 👌
He's a musical genius and has absolutely NO TIME for BS. So when he DOES show emotion, its genuine. You can see it in his eyes, you can feel it in his music, you can experience it in their concerts.
Wasn't the biggest fan of After Forever, and when I heard Nightwish and picked up Floor Jansen, I kept finding one excuse after another to put off listening to their new album, until tonight. Dammit, why do I do this to myself? This was great!
+RicoLen1
You should search UA-cam for the 2013 Wacken show as well. It was phenomenal!
+Elämän Vettä Still following me, I see. Also, +1 to this.
Floor singing Ghost Love Score and Song of Myself at Wacken will blow your mind, by the way. Be prepared.
+RicoLen1 hate to say it to anette fans but Floor is just SOOO much better, if cant have Tarja, Floor is best second pick.
I wasn't a big Anette fan either really. I preferred Tarja, but I never disliked Anette at all either. Escapist is one of my very favorite Nightwish songs, and I think it's a song Tarja wouldn't have been able to do as well as Anette. (I know, blasphemy right?)
I can't agree with all of you, I still consider it's getting worse and worse, but not that much. Yeah, Tarja's voice was something (Though I've never been a huuuuge fan of Nightwish and I just don't like Tarja's solo project), Anette would certainly not have been able to sing as Tarja did, but she didn't try. She was singing her own style on a Nightwish instru'. That was still fine, but I kind of missed the little plus Tarja's voice was giving. And as far as Floor's concerned... I don't know, I hear the new songs as mere symphonic metal songs, just as I could hear a song from Within Temptation or Sirenia (If you're actually a huge fan of either these bands, my deepest apologies, I can't stick with them that much).
That's pretty much it. I think Nightwish has lost step by step what made this band so unique, to become something more usual. I'm sure many persons used to listen symphonic metal will be fine with this (but the pro-Tarja haters, of course), but I'm kind of done with this band.
I like how with each singer they've had they add their own unique thing to the songs. Each one beautiful in its own way.
Lily Ali that's true. And Floor can perform the songs perfectly from her fellow predecessors
I'm glad there are people who think of it this way instead of comparing them to each other all the time 😊
Yeah I agree, Floor is the perfect mix of them really. She can match Tarja's range but has more grit in her voice.
@Lily Ali so very true
I agree, however, I would die to hear one more song in that power metal with operatic vocals style that defined Nightwish's early days. With Floor on vocals of course :)
This song is so beautiful. it still brings tears to my eyes when I haven't heard it in a while. 💗
In the song, there seem to be some power to wake something up in my heart from busy and normal days.
A lot of Nightwish songs since Floor joined do this to me, especially Endless Forms Most Beautiful & Shutter Before the Beautiful.
😂虽然不会流泪不过我梦见了那瀑布了
@@freckyleuang5834 🤔我也是从醉酒中被叫醒
@@MugenHeadNinja i
God this is 7 years ago and it's still beautiful
Yes)
And i remember the day when this song was released :/ i can't believe how fast time pass.
1. I hope this is what Heaven is like, a bunch of friends in a bar with Nightwish music going.
2. Her stylist is on point.
I feel blessed to be a Nightwish fan, doesn't matter it's Tarja, Annette or Floor they are perfect for Nightwish music.
Мне все таки эпоха Тарьи ближе , по вокалу и музыке …
You are the best kind of fan. I don't have the privilege to be so open-minded, as I am somewhat biased towards Annette, because the first Nightwish song I heard was Amaranth and my favourite album is Imaginaerum. Stay like this. Cheers
@@BloodthirstyAcademic thanks
I honestly had forgotten how beautiful, joyous, and loving of life at all stages this song is. The look of wonder on the elderly faces as they meet each member of the band, the lyrics, Floor's joyful singing, and then the end where they're celebrating, still loving life and just how *beautiful* that is...
The persons presented in this video, are finnish highly appreciated actresses & actors, with a very distinquished careers. Thou, partly deceased nowadays. R.I.P. Antti L.
Tuomas Holopainen is a lyrical genius. Though my interpretation of the song may be different from his, this is hands down one of his best! The world is a far better place with him in it.
This is such a beautiful song. A real Nightwish song.
Is it true that in her spare time, Floor Jansen transports dead Vikings to Valhalla?
I was alluding to her combination of beauty and stature. Nothing more.
George Erdner
Yes....yes it's true. ;)
Elämän Vettä she scares me ... in a good way :D
Dave Mason
Gotcha ;)
***** Not again! Why does this keep happening? Everyone thinks I'm a professional yodeller cause my voice keeps changing.
I got my cochlear implant turned on today after losing my hearing a few months ago. This was the first song I listened to after leaving my appointment. I'm not going to lie, it doesn't sound great yet, but hopefully once my brain gets used to the new sound, I'll be able to enjoy some Nightwish again.
Also, thanks Nightwish for the subtitles. A lot of bands don't subtitle their music videos, so thanks for remembering your deaf fans. Xx
As a person with a cochlear implant for 16 years and born deaf I'm so curious how much different is that for you? How much difference is between "natural" sound and artificial sound? I always have been wondering about that how it is like.
@@AleksNeve Hi, fellow deaf Nightwish fan! I've only had my implant for a week so what I can hear with it might change over time.
Basically, it sounds exactly like one of those voice changer toys that children have. Just everything is very high pitched, echoey, and robotic. Speech is pretty clear through it though and I can already hear so much more than I could with my hearing aids.
If you're interested, I'll be putting updates on my channel about my experience getting a cochlear implant.
Nelle xx
@@nellefindlay Yeah I hear they make everything sound a bit "robotic" and you might need to go tweak them a couple times until it sounds to your liking.
Fun fact, this is actually the only studio version of any nightwish song I like just as much as the lives. Amazing group regardless but live performances are where they truly shine 😍 always gives me tingles listening to these extraordinary musicians
Fun fact?
@@jameshughes525that's what I said isn't it. It's a fact, and it was fun for me to tell so it's a fun fact 😂🤣
What about endless forms most beautiful
I named my son, Elan, after watching this. I love this song.
Great name!! All the best for you!
@@artosalonen3775 Thanks
you named ur son Elan ......well done , play this song to him , Elan ....what an awesome name to call ur son
That’s so sweet
@@metalgodz69 Thank you :) I will definitely do that
I just love that Marko and Emmpu look like they're having a good time jamming with their buddies.
One of the most melodic song I've ever heard. The background chorus, the piano, the flute.... Everyth8ng comes alk g together beautifully. Amazing, amazing song.
It's a penny whistle but sentiment still stands bro ❤
This song shows what Tuomas want to see on ppl when They hear his songs. To bring happiness for young and old. To bring joy and make everyone's wishes come true. All metal don't have to be rough or hardcore. It can be about a magic tale and happiness. Showing meaning of life and to enjoy that we love.
I know, I find Tuomas's vision of metal to be refreshing. I enjoy the wide range of Nightwish, there seems to be a song for every mood.
Hedwig's not dead, she's just hanging out with Nightwish
😂 😂 😂
:') that makes me smile
Nice thought
Has been since oceanborn
I don't know if to cry or cry :'(
A simple rule regarding Nightwish: As long as I like what I hear, I will remain one of their biggest fans.
Well said. That's pretty much the rule for all music and the only honest measurement.
I love the way Floor smiles while she sings...gorgeous...she truly is a Nightwish Nymph...
Watch when she sing ADAGIO her own UA-cam channel. She look so beautiful.
I simply love Marco's voice, it touches my soul every time again
It sucks that he's no longer with the band now. The only 2 original members are the lead guitarist and keyboardist. I loved their original drummer. Dude was amazing to watch.
@@matthewbarnard9067 Marko grew tired of industry. He enjoyed working with Nightwish but just grew up tired of all bullshit in industry. Jukka left because of chronic insomnia
@@matthewbarnard9067 True, their original drummer was awesome!
I like it, it might not be huge and epic, but it sounds beautiful and honestly it's very easy to listen to.
I'm sure there will be huge songs throughout the album, which is good, but I really like this softer song.
Also making a 24 minute long clip would break their budget.
Yeah Chris, I heard the final track is an epic 25 minute track.
Chris Lagann The alternative version have more epic sound. Both, album version and alternative, are great! Sagan as well! :)
Alexander Kolev I can't decide which I enjoy more... the album track or the alternative... it will probably depend on my mood. Either way, I find myself liking the song more and more. It is no Ghost Love Score, nothing compares to that song, but I am beyond excited for the full album. Nightwish will always be my favorite band
Hey all.. I saw Nightwish live yesterday.. and Floor was just amazing.
+Irvin Kubat
FLoor is really great live!

+darksteelfuzzy Yeah it was awesome :)
I am 43years old finnish man. I can honestly say that most of the times i cant remember when i had cried, like watery eyes that is result of emotions, feelings, memories etc in my brain. Sadly i can add one milestone when i allways remembered when i cried, that was when my, close to me and dear dad suddenly passed away from bloodstroke in his brains. He was 73. When i heard that, i remember the shock etc, no tears. In funeral, ofc i was carrying coffin on the heart side, like oldest son have to do. Bo tears. After funeral day, me and my sister were taking couple drinks my late dad apartment. I had all feelings for that situation, i think, but no tears, until i just before going sleep was going to smoke last cigarette on the balkony. Walking there, near of balkonys door, i just suddendly see picture of my dad, with casual sports/comfort clothes on, standing hand in pockets, and having that funny, peacuful smile he had, i collapse in that second, and tears start to flow, my sister who was in kitchen, scared that subben burst of scream and cry..her and mine children was sleeping in one room, i dont know they woke up or not.
My point is, what this band do, that when i follow story, lyrics, visuals..everything..i often have to pause, that i dont start to cry.
Two things made me cry last years, my dads death and nightwish🤔😅.
Have to remember that i love my two children more than myself, but they also hasnt been able to make me weeping. At least not last couple years. Still, i say again, all the feelings, pride, worry etc that father must have, i definetily had.
I am not saying, that this kind of trait is good or bad, its neutral and useless theme for deeper analyze, i think. But finnish culture is very stoic and cold, or it can be seen like that by outsiders standards. Problem that i dont cry easily, i feel like at least, is just some technical thing, tears just dont come. I can harden myself also convenient way, but it is fact that i am quite emotional person, and that makes it more interesting for me...
Sorry, just have to share in this nightside hours...
This band do something correct. Allways appreciated, no matter genre, if somebody deliver with quality that, what and how they try to deliver.
I am fan of metal music, and liked to listen this band from 2000-->...only last couple months its gone this deep, strange but enjoyable level...
My favourite metal band. This song is a piece of Art. A Masterpiece!!
I'm from the Netherlands and never heard of her until she joined a Dutch progam. (search for 'beste zangers' and watch Floor singing different songs). How on earth did I not know our best artist? She is AMAZING. ❤️🇳🇱
Ik heb op exact dezelfde manier Floor ontdekt. Wat een topzangeres
Zoek ook eens naar masters of destiny van Delain waar Charlotte wessels in zingt, en bijv. naar mercy mirror van within temptation (Sharon den Adel) en zo heeft Nederland nog meer zangeressen die in Nederland niet bekend zijn
Watched that show just bcuz she joined xD
And welcome to the light young one
Enjoyable show, thanks :) I don't know Dutch but it has English subtitles.
@@marwanhoteit5666 same lol
I really love how Nightwish has incorporated folk elements into their music more and more
In the beginning they wanted to be more of a folk band, but then when Tarja came back from her classic studies Tuomas thought her voice was now way too powerful for that and then he tried something different.
The first album, "Angels fall first", has also still quite a lot folky stuff on it.
Who knows, maybe Tuomas also one day does what Ritchie Blackmoore did with Blackmores Night and goes back to full folk and medieval stuff.
Me too. I'm not even all that big into folk elements in songs, but Nightwish nails it!!!
this nightwish song really hits me because she's meaning sometimes you want to escape reality and her voice can make people shed a few tears
This song always makes me cry, I don't know why.
I love this :) Looking forward to hearing the heavier stuff!
Nice to see that someone who makes good music himself likes this.
So many complains in these comments so far, and I for one cant see why.
HOLY SHIT! You like Nightwish too? Awesome!
kingkong381 I LOVE Nightwish :)
Really looking forward to some heavier stuff from this album as well. Their milder music is often nice, but the heavier pieces are where they've always often been at their best.
miracleofsound me too :)
I discoverd Nightwish in a Dutch television program where the lead singer, Floor Jansen, was invited. There I liked her voice and charisma, I was curious to see who was Nightwish. And now I am addicted.
Better now then never.... Enjoy... One advice always listen to floor live.
Same
On the opposite, i discovered "beste zangers" because of Floor (i usually dislike shows like that).
Welcome to the Nightwish family!
@@otronombre4403 I don't know if you were responding to me. I'm not a member of a "family" or a cult... i just like to listen to Nightwish ;)
This is just pure gold. Nightwish spiced up with Finland's most famous and beloved actors and actresses. For older Finns, this video is a journey into their own and the actors' past. Makes me cry each time when I watch this. Thank you. Kiitos.
So are all the old people in the video famous Finnish actors?
@@bigdumbfatcat2869 Yes.
Woww..never heard of it..😮😮.. love this song
the scene where an old man in an empty swimming pool teared me up 😢
"Even at the age of 70, he was finally ready to conquer his biggest fear in life, swimming."
I cannot wait to see them in Montreal in August!!!
Work stopped me from going. I am not happy. It should be an amazing festival and there are a lot of bands I was looking forward to seeing.
+Dave Mason yeah I'm sure it will be good. just quit lol
Believe me, I really did consider it.
+Стас Буланов where are you from?
Same! Heavy MTL is going to be awesome! :D
Floor is this kind of singer who even if you are at the bottom, her voice can take you high up in the heven. Love Nightwish and Floor 🥰🤩💜💜
Alpenglow!
*heaven but yea i agree
i agree,but i still missing Marco
Almost all the song is good, except for the part when she sais: "have a laugh at the orthodox". What's her problem?! 😡
@@alinamagda2547 ....surf the clouds.... ya problem.....
don't know why this song always make me smile, such old memories come back again to me
This was one of the First songs that I listened to when I discovered Nightwish. Today they are my favorite band and there are no words that I can say to express the magic and fun they bring to life. I can however say that you all rock and I cannot wait to see your next project. Cheers!!!
Raise a hand, everyone who get shivers for that Floor impression at 3:33
I don't think I've ever been in love, but I imagine that's the closest to how it feels.
It is truly amazing
Yup...
I lost count of how many times I've watched this scene
floor is beautyful and that's a fact
I am sitting here binge watching Nightwish videos after learning of Marko's announcement to leave the band and public life this morning. I am torn between sadness and a feeling of hope. Sad that Marko is departing the vessel that is Nightwish, but hope for Marko's health and what his future will bring.
it is indeed a sad news just like jukka as well...😭
AMEN
I felt the same way when Yui left BABYMETAL.
It wasn't implied that it is forever. However, taking care of your mental health is important.
Good riddance.
Найтвиш - офигенная команда. Тарья, Анет, Флор.. Все они прекрасны.
❤️ " вот тебе моя кровь, видишь, тебе её я дарю - вот моя любовь...."
Una cerveza y esta canción... Momentos impagables...
Que sean dos cervezas
this song is better than anything that's won a US Grammy award in the last 15 years
@JediNxf7 nope, you're right, we can go back further
@JediNxf7 saying butt hurt as a point in an argument makes you look incredibly immature. Also "racist continent", how is it racist exactly?
@JediNxf7 Is this coming from someone from the land of Jim Crow?
@JediNxf7 well your view is completely different from actual Europeans, at least our leaders don't deny climate change
Their's no souls in Hollywood!
Beautiful song and Floor is really amazing! Thank you Nightwish! :-) ... and Jukka, we wish you all the best!!!
Yeaaahh... Floor is just incredible!!! I'm waiting patiently for the whole "Endless Forms Most Beautiful"!
Oh maaan i really miss that Pirate of a man. Jukka is just the right combination of unique athmospheric Nightwishy drumming and a little bit of portnoy here and there. Absolutely love him. So sad he's not going to be on this tour. Best of whishes get well soon enough. No offense to the new guy though he did fine, although this song is not the best place to show off a new drummer I'm gonna wait and see before I even make an efford to remember his name.
tharrock337 Yes, the loss of Jukka is really, really sad, but the most important thing on earth is health and I wish him all the best to beat his insomnia! Nevertheless, Kai is an awesome drummer and I am sure, he will be perfect in this band! :-)
MoonSun
Insomnia?? Is that some kind of a sleeping disorder?? Damn, I didnt know it can be so serious that he quit drumming because of that... Best wishes to Jukka, get well, brother :)
Marko Becić I hope he gets better soon. I had horrible insomnia when I was younger. Stayed up for days at a time and it really starts messing with you.
Get well soon Jukka!!
That old lady at 2:19 has a look of a granny who just ate her grandson`s "special cookies" and is currently wondering if those elves in the kitchen are real and if they have always been there....
Beautiful song, even after so many years it brings me to tears :)
floor has an incredible relaxing and calm voice, i really love it
You can see that Floor really enjoys singing the song. Its so lovely, She is an angel.
Yes indeed. Isn't she lovely, isn't she wonderful?
HumaThomsen that is one of the reason I like this the music is the other.
Want to Mary her 😍
HumaThomsen but I prefer Tarja she is nothing compared to her lol Jk people
a Dutch godess
All this complaining makes me not want to scroll down on Nightwish videos anymore. :D LOVE this song! Beautiful!
You are right! Great song indeed, very beautiful.
Some of the fans are still stuck in the year 2000, when Nightwish made faster music.
my thoughts exactly about scrolling down
the comments section of the band's video just make me sicker by the day and I'm stuck in bed because of a bad flu which is saying something...
The worst comments are the ones who criticise Floor whilst clearly having never heard her other bands before.
My life sucks. Floor and Nightwish give me true joy. It's life saving.
Quanto mais você ouve, mais você quer ouvir novamente. A voz insuperável e divina da Semideusa Floor Jansen nessa harmonia perfeita criada pelo mestre Tuomas. Obra prima❤❤
Just found this band... I've been missing out wtf.
I'll go out on a limb and say "I think you liked it?"
😅
Nightwish is AMAZING. Everything about them, from the composition and lyrics (mostly the keyboardist Tuomas) to the instrumental musicianship to the vocals is *world class*. Live, they may have a few equals, but none are better. "Spectacular" falls far short. They're classified generally as symphonic metal (you can hear why), but they have SO many different sounds to them, sometimes even within one composition. They're like a musical version of a box of chocolates - you never know what you'll get, except you know it'll be GOOD.
FYI this is their third and final vocalist, Floor Jansen. The 'J' is pronounced like a 'Y'. She's Dutch, and among Nightwish's/her fans, she has many names: Siren, Our Queen, The Valkyrie, Goddess. Take your pick.
The original vocalist was Tarja Turunen (again, J pronounced as a Y). She was a true lyric soprano, classical voice often going into operatic. Then there was Annette Olzon (from Sweden) - she was more "poppy" but definitely added her own signature.
When you go looking for their music to listen to, try to go for live stuff. That's where they really shine and show you what they can do.
One of very few bands who sound exactly the same live as they do on their albums.
@@jeffk1482 Thanks for the information! (Also you were right about me liking it)
@@pannon-binaryirishpotato7318 LOL I could def tell, it just seemed like a fun way to open the convo!
🤘😄
If you haven’t yet, just go ahead and go to the wacken 2013 performance of ghost love score. It’s seriously the best live metal performance of all time.
This is Nordic folk rock , an age and a universe away from pop .
This music will live forever . It has heart and meaning . God bless Nightwish !
@Devastator No not Celtic but similar. They are Dutch, Finnish,and swedish . Same hemispherical region and some cultural similarities. But their music is from them in their hearts and minds.
@Mikko I'm not Swedish. I'm French Canadian and Sioux.
@Mikko I assume so, Its what I read about them.
@Mikko ah I see , well then I stand corrected . Never the less they are a group that is uniquely superb and fantastic.
I've always loved Nightwish.
Great song 🤘💪 alleluja from Slovakia 🇸🇰
So much positive energy! This kind of music helps you go through hardships of life but also when you feel good this amplifies it! Amazing! Easily my favorite song from Nightwish!
This song is so magic, it gives me peace.
Floor is the perfect match to Marko's voice, as always Marko is perfect
One of the most beautiful songs i've never heard! Simply a masterpiece
Ever*
@@anenlightenedmisfit6262 you don't actually know if he heard the song or not so stfu
True, I have another one favorite song by Nightwish!
And imagine that this is the lullaby Floor sings to Freja to sleep... ow God, what a dream!
If only she'd appreciate it. She's a very particular goddess after all. But worthy? most definitely! Imo
What a great song. Makes me remember the good old days, and still brings hope for the future :)
no widzisz !
replay replay replay... Casting is awesome! who are all these people? Epic faces, great
The bartneder is awesome in the last scenes! He is like an old metal fan, we all are going to be like him in the future ;) But yeah, all cast did splendid job.
Those people are respectedl legendary oldschool actors from Finnish cinema/theatre. It is great that Nightwish took all those epic people on their video!
Sorry guys but the video sucks is not a first single pre album video, i love the song but the video sucks
Alberto Caro I know that opinions are like asses - everybody has one, but why it sucks, if I may ask??
ok look this is the first single of a new album with a new singer and is just bad, make no sense and look like something that a new band with no money will do
This song never fails to put me in a good mood

For sure. Sorry for being so delayed.
me to this song is pretty heart warming
Look at the end when Empuu teh guitar player puts his 3000 dollar ESP around the shoulders of one of teh extras.
I bet they worked all day. Maybe more than that to get some of these shots visually its a lot of detail in their music videos thats really cool. It's not super expensive production but its really high quality still.
incredible song.. she's a greater singer of all times..
Have you heard all the singers throughout all times? 🙄
@@deaddoll1361 of the ones recorded, we can easely say she is the best and only one capable to sing absolutly any kind of music
C'mon dude
Not even in the top 100. You haven't listened to many singers.
I can't believe I've been a fan for 16 years
Floor has never looked more beautiful, and she sounds amazing as usual.
Floor's voice is beautiful.
too light( I feel upset... no deepness, but yes, its beautiful
MORE better than Anette's (pop-)voice - IMO.
Алиса 2Ч Floor's voice has a LOT of depth. This just wasn't the best song for her, and that's why I think tuomas should let floor help him with the songwriting. She wrote amazing songs when she was in after forever.
So my parents are big Nightwish fans and I finally brought myself to listen to some popular songs and this one is literally my childhood lmao
Amazing song, Nightwish is the best music metal band ever!
I don't really agree. They have nice gothic metal but I still think there are other metal bands that beat them but for gothic sure
Can i just say this video is amazing? I love the old feel of the place shes singing in, and how everyone joins up at the end. LOVE you guys!!
Yes, you can :D
those are all the people that died and once they did, they were taken to a old bar type joint where nightwish is there to greet them. its a lovely idea.
Floor Jansen is the best!!!!!!
Hahahaha... an old uneducated troll is coming... Hello Silver Spike, it's so long I don't see you...
It's really nice indeed
This song is so beautiful. We are all on our own journeys brothers and sisters. Enjoy life, eat great food, drink good drinks, listen to amazing music and live the ride. We are all spirits inside.
+Doctor Butcher
Well said!
Thank you for the kind words :)
I am unable to listen to Nightwish in the background. I realize that I am sitting here, not doing what i set out to do, and just listening to the music. This is one of the few bands that I discovered as a teen, and still love to this day, 15 years later
I just discovered today. If you know amazing bands and songs like this please recommend me.
My first exposure to Nightwish was also as a teen, 15 years ago. But I didn't keep track of the band, being content with Once and Oceanborn. For some reason, I decided to take a look at their new stuff yesterday, and I'm so glad I did. I've probably listened to Alpenglow about 10-15 times already. Their new stuff isn't the same as the Tarja era, but it's still incredible.
@@parasstone8414 Pretty much the entire "Once" album is good. The album this song is on is good, with Alpenglow being my favorite. I also like the the "Oceanborn" "Imaginaerium" and "Wishmaster" albums.
so many years have passed
Nightwish will always remain in heart
Love from Bangladesh
Floor's voice is absolutely breath-taking! I'm totally mesmerised ..
i agree but tarja is number 1 forever
@@skull6106 No. Floor made the band complete... until Marko left.
The smille of Floor is amazing!
Indeed
The background vocals in the chorus really make this song. And of course Floor lays down a prrrfect vocal track, as usual
I just found out that I’m going to be a father again and my first response, after kissing and hugging my wife, was to put on this happy celebration to life.
3:33 "...have a laugh..." (and the gesture); a magnificent moment!
She doesn't just sing with her voice.
This song and MV literally made me cry from happiness.
I know wat u mean😭
Tears and cold chills were definitely present when I watched this!
MV?
@@pickle_256 Music Video
What a song to celebrate life... Never ceases to inspire
"Write a lyric for the song only you can understand" - every nightwish song
Alaa Obaid Growing up, almost song I heard was like that.
Now I see :) This is great :)
you are so damn right
Alaa Obaid 8 libros
Their lyrics are for the listener's interpretation, theyre ambiguous, vague and mysterious on purpose, because theyre not mean to promote an ideology or pass a message to the listener but to make you think and feel and create an atmosphere where you can be yourself and hear your own personal interpretation of the songs. That is why the band doesn't talk about the lyrics too much, Tuomas said this on interview
can't believe this song is already 5 years old.. feels like it came out yesterday
absolutely! just like fresh snow in the early winter, fading autumn....
Cada vez que veo la parte final del vídeo. Nightwish tocando está gran canción y los abuelos disfrutar la música. Se me paran los pelos de la emoción. Gran video musical. I love it.
Whenever I listen to nightwish it takes me back to a better time when I was actually relatively happy
I hope you find your happiness again 😊
Same.. hope we will find happiness again
That voice, is perfect, I've never heard a voice that is soft and powerful at the same time.
maybe never listened tarja turunen
tarja was a naristic twat.. better off with a human
Amy Lee maybe?
Joornn13 nah. Amy Lee is shrill and whiny.
Tarja's voice was very powerful. But tarja's voice wasnt soft and isnt soft now.
