Imagine a song that were to embody the entirety of existence, from the beginning of time and the universe, to humanity’s present-day realizations. That would mean encompassing billions of years and the plethora of events that occurred in that lengthy timespan. It would be an amendable feat and one of the greatest musical pieces ever written, were such a song to exist. Well, it does. And it’s “The Greatest Show on Earth” by Nightwish.

Brace yourself. This is the answer to P&P. Tuomas has come so far in his musical explorations, he has left the emotions that inspired the P&P work behind. THIS is the work that comes out of joy, wonder, science, education, observation, ( remember, until he was shanghaied by Metallica he was going to be a biologist) . Other pieces lead up to this; Shudder, Alpenglow, Wilds, Walden, EFMB...he was building up to this for years. And after THIS piece, he comes out with Human:II: Nature, and you realize that THIS piece was just an introduction to Human:II:Nature. Oh, coils within coils!

The phrase at the end - "We were here" - it makes sense now? I think it is so so sad that Nightwish is classified as Metal because it scares potential listeners away from them. I have asked a couple of friends at work if they know about NW and they all say "No, Metal is not my thing. Rock is my kind of music". But I have hatched a sinister plan. I am working nights over the coming weekend, so in some mysterious way (wont say how 😁) I will bang in a full Concert in a USB memory, I'll chuck it in in the tv in the Canteen at work, set it up on endless repeat and then hide the tv remote somewhere, the icebox in the fridge maybe... Cheers / B.

After releasing their Album "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" Nightwish got an unexpected honour. They published on their Facebook the following news. My Sincere congratulations to Nightwish Band and to the Master himself, Tuomas Holopainen 🤘👏🇫🇮 ”One new crab species (Tanidromites nightwishorum) was named after us in honor in particular for our 2015 album, ’Endless Forms Most Beautiful’, about the evolution of life. The new species of crab was found in eastern Austria and lived during the late part of the Jurassic period, around 150 million years ago. While dinosaurs dominated the land, parts of Europe were covered by a warm, shallow sea full of life. Tanidromites nightwishorum was discovered in a fossil coral reef. Crab diversity and abundance exploded for the very first time in their evolutionary history during the Late Jurassic in central Europe. Thanks to Dr. Adiel A. Klompmaker and his colleagues for this truly fantastic honour (Adiel is curator of palaeontology, Alabama Museum of Natural History).

Well, it seems he composes the themes and general melodies for the orchestral parts, records them in instrumental demos, and then consults Pip Williams about how to arrange them for an orchestra and a choir. Pip does enough work regarding this that he could be called a "7th bandmember," for example in this one he created the horror-like soundscape in the start of the 3rd part behind Floor's haunting vocals (the red scene) and there was a lot for him to do in the 4th part too. Pip also wrote the orchestral middle part in Ghost Love Score, mostly of course he's doing just arrangements and adjustments regarding the orchestral production in close cooperation with Tuomas.

Really great reaction. Love watching the emotions you went through during this performance. I've watched more than 100 reactions to this song and go through those emotions each and every time, including tears. Tuomas is a once in a lifetime pure musical genius. I often wonder how someone who is blessed, or cursed, with his amazing creativity for music can turn it all off to have a good night's sleep. The classical master composer, Gustav Mahler, once said his creative juices were never at rest and very often it was a burden to bare. Wonder if Tuomas has to deal with that. I consider both men to be legendary titans in the musical composition world. Thanks for doing this performance justice in your reaction. Ron

When you read the lyrics you will understand the different vocal aspects. Floor was singing from a universal perspective. She was telling us how our planet and life evolved during the early stages. Then when she started to properly sing she was seeing the Earth as a garden that we humans needed to tend to and care for. The grunting section starts the section called "Toolmakers". This was when humans evolved and began to use tools and to hunt. The ending is a statement on the future. See final chorus below. Man, he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day'll cease to be Greet the last light of the library We were here! We were here! We were here! We were here!

No, you're right Thomas, Tuomas writes it all, lyrics in his second language too, he is a genius. Ioa Kouts has done a brilliant job with the lyrics in here, allow me to submit my take on it which will likely be a parallel in many places. I think like you, a great deal of us were and are moved by this work, thanks for the reaction. In three bits as YT won't take it in one go!

Wonderful reaction! Yes, prof. Dawkins recorded especially for nightwish, if you watch the version from Wembley, you can see prof.Dawkins at the end of the greatest show. You probably have to look at this a couple of times to see and hear everything! Keep on reacting to Nightwish, greetings from the Netherlands 🙂
