Top 5? It's nowhere near to the level of Bless The Child Dark Chest Of Wonders Wishmaster Sleeping Sun or 10th Man Down. This one is way too generic and has nothing memorable or personal to connect to.

The ending has a meaning: it is finding port after the adventure on stranges waters. It had the epic momentum when Floor says "On these strange islands...", which is the end of the adventure and then we find port with the pipes, a moment of resting and memories. A movie never ends during the climax. This is a formula for Tuomas to end his long songs. It is actually something not new. If you listen to "The Poet and the Pendulum", "The Greatest Show on Earth" or "Beauty of the Beast", they have this kind of ending.

Absolute Masterpiece All 3 albums with Floor I feel her voice is a little buried ......as far as the pace of the lyric delivery by Floor , the more u listen to it , it slows down to the ear , just keep listening to it .

This song is about the journey of life and the islands represent the persons you meet and situations you encounter. Some words suggest it is the story of Tuomas and the 'stormy' history of Nightwish as a whole, which is the reason the vocals are delivered this way. The 'calm' ending suggests the story of Nightwish is not over. I am not bothered by the mixing. Tumas said it has been intential. More than ever it seems Tuomas is not writing songs but creates pieces of art where Floor is an integral part of. The word Quintet' is the original number of members (5); 'retiree' might refer to Marko' and the mad scream of Floor is obvious referring to 'Scaretale'. Knowing Tuomas there are many more easter eggs to find in this one especially.

Well guys, this is art, a composition. Not mainstream metal. Have you ever listened to classical music, with a real orchestra? In music everything is possible and we listeners can either like or dislike like. I feel the "rush" in the music and lyrics are life itself, the way we people hurry to get going. The hard part in the end represents our bodys(hearts?) final battle. Then finally, (when Troy plays those pipes) we are "at Home, Free". ❤ I might have taken this too far but this is how I imagine this musical journey.🤷‍♀️☺️

I can definitely understand where you're coming from Pedro but to me as someone mentioned, the ending symbolizes "finding port" or the calm after the storm (finding the meaning of life through its journey, our personal journey). I find this thematically is a bit of a continuation of the previous album. I also think listening to NW strictly for the music is missing a huge part of the puzzle. The emotion in NW is delivered with lyrics quite often. I can understand that's not everyone's thing and that's totally cool but I find it is quite a strong part of the band's identity and why people resonate so much with them.

Tuomas said this song is about people we meet along the way in life, each person represent a island.. and the one steering the ship, Tuomas, or maybe you.. it could be your story right, but Tuomas proberly did write it as him steering the ship. feel some imaginarium vibes here, also some melody parts reminds a bit if the NW song Sahara.. i do think its a great song, i didnt catch it at first listen, i was also pretty tired, maybe thats why, but now i get on a journey with it, sailing this ship.. love it!! Imo the songs does not have parts that do not fit, imagine, you sailed to all these islands, you basicly build up all your friendsships, and your life going there, the end is where you harbour, with all you gathered on these islands..

Missed opportunity? ......The song is perfect, it's Nightwish at its best. Nothing is missing and nothing is left over. Everything you hear has its reason and you haven't even stopped to find out knowing that Tuomas writes music to make you think and to try to figure out the message that is being sent, both with the lyrics and the music. That final part has its reason and cannot be separated from the rest. Maybe you should see if what you don't like is the evolution of the group. If this were the case it would be more honest to come out and say..."I'm sorry guys but we won't do any reaction to the new songs of this group because we don't like the new songs" and that's it, a 10 second video. I honestly don't understand people who do reviews of the music on youtube. For me, it's one of the best songs of Nightwish by far. P.S.: I don't speak English well and I'm not sure if this is written well but I hope you understand what I mean.

Music is life and it often has phases, which don't connect to each other in any way and more than often life doesn't end with a high note. It ends with the heart monitor beeping till it draws a flat line. That beeping and flat line doesn't reflect your life in any way-it just tells that your life has come to an end. The song is great and obviously perfect for live performance. And Floor's voice doesn't belong to the front, because no one is that on a wide ocean-on an ocean you're just as tiny and insignificant as a floating plastic bottle cap. Or Mickey Mouse in a distress at sea: "Mikkihiiri merihadassa by Club For Five".

I think it was YOUR OPPORTUNITY to get one right Mr. Silver Beard! First, the song isn’t about the ocean literally, but life, & relationships! You see the butterflies breaking off to find their island, their experience, their STORY that they seek. Come on in the waters fine, no matter your stage of life; the waters fine. As a senior coasting on probably not much time left thought the song was a banger with a BEAUTIFUL MESSAGE! As a rocker girl to the end, I loved the banger…. + the beautiful last minutes, as it = perfect to me! Try focusing on the lyrics, beyond one word, you will be better for it! Oh, & you aren’t Tuomas Halopanien, a genius musician, & writer that offered you the London Philharmonic Orchestra, their choir, the best female singer on the planet singing DOUBLE TIME, & the best rock/metal musicians I’ve experienced, & I came through all their rock forefathers, & mothers…. and you are so disappointed by a beautiful ending, bringing in a smooth sailing feel, & the rainbow at the end of the journey, of a black & white, up, & down, difficult trip…..your STORY! May your life afford YOU some smooth sailing! The end! LOL!!

I wasn’t too sure about this new album until they dropped this song. It kinda feels like a nw megamix (😂) in some points but it has got everything that a nw track needs to have in my opinion. The emotional quality is off the charts. And Tuomas’ songwriting is unmatchable. Well done once again nightwish!

Islands are always strange mystery. From finding Vinland and the Iceland, The great Greenland that stretches far and wide. And the small islands we yet to discover. They are like mini countries that has just appeared for some millions of years. Vikings sailed and find lot of islands but the most special island I believe has to be Vinland. I tell from not just from the anime saga but an island, far away from the horizont, a place where it's not cold, warm and sun. A place for peace. Every sailors love when they find island at least a land to walk on again!

Tuomas has had a habit of sticking lengthy codas at the beginning and end of songs since going back to at least the end of Creek Mary’s Blood 20 years ago. It’s not something I’m a big fan of but at least when it’s at the end of the song and so clearly divorced from the rest of the track like this you can just skip to the next one. It was much more annoying when it took The Greatest Show on Earth nearly 6 minutes to get started before the good parts kicked in. I would probably be more accepting of this coda if we hadn’t already had a pointless long outro to Perfume of the Timeless because I think the first 7 minutes of this one are incredible.

My unpopular opinion, but I think the problem with Nightwish lately is that they want to make all songs about something larger than life. IMO not every song has to be a theatrical masterpiece full of symbolism and such. PoTT, TDO, and this one feel like they are forcing you to reflect on something. Hope the next album is more relaxed and not strongly tied to a concept. There is a reason why Amaranth and Bye Bye Beautiful are still the top viewed on KZbin, and DPP is one of the favorite albums of Nightwish fans. The only "cinematic" song there is The Poet and The Pendulum. Also the outro felt like they didn't know what to do with Troy. So they gave him those minutes at the end to do something haha. Hope no one takes this personal, I still enjoyed the song and love the band. It's just that the release of this year for me is Wintersun's Time 2.

Thanks for the reaction, I agree that the amount of lyrics prevent a natural flow, you said it right!

​@@ChrisPage68 Nope dear Chris who should know better since I told you.. Once again, here is Tuomas himself, remembering what they said to him when H:N was in pre-production: "I remember when the singers [Floor & Marko] brought up the fact that the song melodies and lyrics are made by a person who can't really sing at all and that it adds a special spice to Nightwish's sound ..//.. I often hear in my head exactly how these melodies go, in what voice they are sung, and how the lyrics unfold. Then when I present them to the singers, they tell me that you can't sing that way! There are too many syllables, too many "s" letters and so on. Up to a certain limit, I always try to challenge them to at least try." Now pray tell everyone Chis, what part of "TOO MANY SYLLABLES" don't you understand?

I agree that the pipe tune at the end musically feels a little out of place, but it is magnificently beautiful and I would absolutely love to have a 6-minute version of that separately. If this is what we get I'll take it. It's a great song and I absolutely hope there will more in this style.

My honest opinion: just another song from "the Floor era". Not the best, not the worst. But i am an old jeezer who can't get over "the Old Nightwish" with Tarja, Marko etc. Or maybe them being all young and not this Bigger-than-Life superband felt kinda more genuine. Good music, but not the one i would re-listen very often.

I feel the same way. I'm partial to the more stripped-down sound of earlier Nightwish albums. This song isn't bad, but it isn't one I would want to hear again and again.

Perfect reaction! And I have good news: The channel 'NIGHTWISH ARENA' offers a version where Floor's voice is in the front (where it belongs) and also the other instruments have space to breathe. 🤩😍

Best of the 3 so far. It has Nightwish doing what it does better than anyone - the bombastic stuff. Getting tired of minutes of almost silence in the beginning, middle and end of songs, though.

Luckily Nightwish is a band that never has and probably never will bend to 'wishes' from fans, reviewers, reactors and media which imho tend to cling to experiences from the past. Nightwish however is a band in motion. Tuomas is start, middle and end of everything Nightwish. And, as we all should know, opinions are subjective and should be respected. Question for you guys that came to my mind: Ever considered the fact that this might be the final track of the album?

Throughout the whole song I was waiting for the song to actually start and present something interesting that would separate it from other Nightwish songs and other bands. What a waste of time. This is as generic, dry and boring as it gets. If that was the point of the song then it exceeded expectations.

who produced this album? all of these singles just sound so muddled and off...... it's like they forgot what kind of music is being played?... oh well i still have 97-04 Nightwish to go back to so i am happy...... funny because Nightwish and Opeth are some of my favorite bands but their new stuff just makes me yearn for the legacy of olde
