Your clear knowledge of musical and performance and super listening skills with ability to explain it so everyone can understand is GREATLY appreciated by me, a 73 year old classically trained pianist who switched to singing and playing mostly guitar and some keyboard in rock and folk bands as well, mostly in Greenwich Village, for over 20 years, literally thousands of times. As far as the other guitars, without knowing who's actually playing, keep in mind that Troy is quite capable of doing it, too. Yes, I'm another who accidentally experienced Ghost Love Score from Wachen and instantaneously was entranced by Floor's magical performance and her ability to switch vocal techniques on the spot with equal excellence every time, and it's live. They're all fabulous. You're the best there is at what you do. Thank you.

Chase, your Nightwish journey has become mine as well. I discovered Nightwish in early 2019 and have been a huge fan since (never have been a fan of any particular band/singers, and I'm 50 years old). Your analysis has given me a new experiences with the band. It's something I look forward to every week. Thank you ❤ 🤘

[@PeterE_1]

I'm totally with you there. I was a Nightwish fan before but watching Chase pick the songs apart and point out all the details have opened my mind way more to their music and how Tuomas writes songs and I couldn't be more grateful. :D I saw them live with Anette and wasn't to impressed so I more or less forgot about them until a couple of years ago when I heard that Floor had stepped in. What a difference! She even gave Tarja a run for her money and in the end have won me over compleatly! *happy dance* 😁

I think that being just one big song divided, is a little difficult he do in the way that he did the first part of the album. I liked his analysis on the album thou, this guy's channel is the best surprise that 2020 brought to me.

[@matthewkolb1694]

I fully endorse a reaction to 'All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World', it's a beautiful journey. As you venture into the past with Tarja and Anette I would recommend double reactions with performances by both the original singer and by Floor, not to compare the vocalists but to compare the arrangements. Tuomas has been known to re-record choir and orchestration for the live backing track to better compliment the live sound.

[@kenjinpiniteu]

Matthew Kolb I second this! Songs like ‘The Islander’, ‘Deep Silent Complete’, ‘Wishmaster’ and ‘Sleeping Sun’ take a different turn depending on the singer as Toumas rearranges them to suit who’s on lead.

@@kenjinpiniteu Please add "Tenth Man Down" to this list, it sounds like a different song now

[@kenjinpiniteu]

@RhinoVanDam I honestly found Anette's voice suitable for the songs on DPP and Imaginaerum (especially the latter). She has this storyteller, child-like horror/fantasy vibe to her naturally bright voice that suited songs like 'Scaretale' and 'Storytime'. Personally, my only issue with Anette was that she was never as good on a live performance as much as she was in the studio. Other than that, I enjoyed the albums she was in (Last Ride of the Day was my top replay song until Wacken 2013 with Floor, and her version of it was /then/ my next top replay song lol) Also, I love the energy Floor brings to Amaranth but I am just a bit in favor of Anette’s (studio version). Especially love Anette in songs like Turn Loose the Mermaids; Meadows of Heaven; Eva; The Crow, The Owl and The Dove!

[@kenjinpiniteu]

@@caligo7918 Yes! '10th Man Down' and 'Dead Boy's Poem' are wonderful with Tarja and just as wonderful with Floor. As someone who has known of this band since 2005/6, I'm very happy we have sooo many versions and rearrangements of songs to listen to!

[@markoviitanen2671]

This song hit me stronger than I expected. I've heard it before... but the melody and some phrases were very touching, because today I buried my mother, and it's the endlessness of things that has been on my mind today...

I WANT the pauses! I LOVE the pauses! That's why I come to see your videos. If I want to see the whole thing uninterrupted, I'll go watch that instead of your videos.

And thank you for keeping Nightwish Saturdays alive! ✌

[@chrisblinman9150]

Hello Chase, I've just discovered your reactions to Nightwish today and I shamelessly admit to binge watching them in order. Your growth into this music reminds me of my own when I discovered them in 2003. I've watched so many reactions and I've seriously enjoyed yours. You seem to notice everything I do and a bit more, as you're a musician and I'm not. This band simply have a direct line to my soul (which has only grown with the addition of the band members). I'm so happy to find someone who has been hooked in by this amazing band in much the same way I was. I've seen them live in 4 different countries. I hope you too get to see them live soon too. They are the only band to have ever managed to get a tear out of my eye. Like what you've just done with the human nature album, I feel that you reacting to the entire Buenos Aires 2018 show would be amazing. It's 2 hours long so I can see how that would be difficult for you to do so I won't expect it. But that could be a great series of videos. Keep going with the Nightwish mate, you're fantastic at these reactions! 👏

This song is just beautifully soul crushing and hits you in a unique way - simultaneously giving you an existential crisis and an appreciation for your very existence. Chase, if you were to sit down and really study the lyrics of only ONE of the tracks on this album, I would recommend that it be this one _(Edited to add, before anyone comments on it - yes, all the tracks have wonderful and deep lyrics, so every single one is worth looking at, lyrically)_

[@kjvail]

Troy has become a second guitarist on many new arrangements for two guitars.

[@Secret_Agent_Mark]

He added the e-bow to the list of instruments too (if you can call it an instrument).

Troy isn't part time. He's playing something on every song. If its not one of the dozen or so instruments he seems to be master of, then he's strumming a guitar.

It is so nice to hear awesome Marco to sing this epic ending song of deep tone and atmosphere. You have a good point when saying that this album has everything for all the moods and feelings.

[@Thorgrim247]

Wonderful reaction and analysis video Chase! I have grown to love this CD. I kind of think of it as music for adults? There is no focus on making this recording about all heavy or any particular style. However each song gives you something intellectually to think about in a very personal way. There are so many layers to this amazing compilation of music. I love the way Tuomas has decided to begin the recording with "Music". Being a musician and making it his life's work it makes so much sense. Not to mention it is what this entire CD and Tuomas' life is all about. Then the journey begins and touches on many if not all aspects of our human condition. Then "Endlessness" as the final song. If you think about the title of the song and the song placement within this CD it presents a wonderful dichotomy. The placement says "The End", but the title and song itself says "There is no Ending"? And now we come to the lyrical content of the song. It is explains Tuomas', and most likely others within Nightwish' conceptual belief in what occurs when we all reach that final stage of life on this plane of existence. Once you look closer at the lyrics you will see that this is a spiritual song dealing with the concept of death as a crossing over to another plane of existence/nonexistence? The term used in this song as well as in the opening to "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" and mentioned in the chorus to "Sagan", both from the 2015 release "Endless Forms Most Beautiful, is "The Unseen Stream". It's a metaphor for the "flow" of genetic inheritance between species that has been passed down as though in a "stream" from the earliest of lifeforms as a result of evolution. This is why in the conclusion to this song you see the shapes in the gaseous cloud forms as the song slowly fades out. The message is basically "There is no ending, simply a circular movement to everything in existence. One door closes and another one opens so to speak. Many of Nightwish' members claim to be "Openly Secular" and this song embodies this concept perfectly. I have had people ask me personally "If you don't believe in a God, what do you believe in and how do you understand our place in this earthly existence"? This song answers that question perfectly! Always wonderful to take these journey with you my friend. Love it every time. Till the next one, Have a Damn Good Day. Peace.

Apologies for the pause 😉 just wanted to say l discovered Nightwish 2 years ago on a reaction channel & have been obsessed ever since. Your channel is definitely the master class ! listening to your analysis my love & respect for their music grows Seeing them live is the goal. Cheers Chase 🌘🌟

I think 2nd guitar is Troy. He in one of the interviews said he did a lot more guitar work on this album and backed up Empu

[@SummerFlowNightSleep]

Welp... I commented before watching the whole video because of time constraint xD Still keeping it here though: Please please please don't forget about the works of nature, the album isn't over with Endlessness. Even though the second disc is (mostly) instrumental, it's a continuation of the songs you've listened to so far, and Ad Astra is the perfect proper end to the album :D Also it might be worth reading up briefly on the hykkal hymn (sp?), its 'sampled' and gives the whole 'birth of everything until the very end' concept stronger when you realize how old 'written' music is ^^ I would suggest listening to the first disc in one go first, and have that lead into the instrumental songs. Don't break them up, listen to it in one go, it's a wonderful half hour of music that you'll definitely like with your like/affinity for (movie)score music. (Did you know that Tuomas is a huuuuuge Hans Zimmer fan? :D) Thank you for all the Human Nature reactions so far

No matter what you do with the second part of the album, can you please react separately to the last song 'Ad Astra'? Not the version from Nightwish channel, which is purely audio (like all of the second disc) but the official music video released by Nuclear Blast, which shows off the partnership between Nightwish and World Land Trust? The music, together with the iconic narration and the moving pictures/video shots from World Land Trust are just breathtaking together.

Simply beautiful the whole album. Great analysis and as usual just the perfect amount of pauses 😄

[@verakatharina]

Yas, been waiting for this since Music, and I wasn't disappointed. Thanks, Chase! ♥️ I'm so happy you appreciate this song. I promise, there's a lot to discover when you listen to it more. :) 20+ years of being a fan and I didn't think they were capable of releasing a song that would become my all time favorite. They did, it's this one. I'm ashamed I ever thought that. I should know better. I do know better.

[@melissaramey1391]

Beautifully done, Chase. 🤘💗

[@DougsShack]

I have been unable to choose a favorite song off this album. Any time I begin to think I have one rise up, I hear another song and it grips me. That said, these two last songs definitely sit well with me and it is always a pleasure to get to the end and hear Tribal and Endlessness.

[@TheJatonEffect]

So much this. Every song has literally been my favorite at some point since the album came out; excluding Procession, I still haven't fully clicked with that one yet. There are so very few albums that get that response from me. Even EFMB took a couple of YEARS to fully appreciate.

[@magnuspeacock5857]

Can you please do All the Works of Nature please. Ideally in one sitting, that is how it was designed to be heard. I wouldn't mind if it wasn't a First-Time Reaction.

[@ericabenoit8620]

Like I mentioned before, I've listened to this album over 30 times, and you still somehow catch things in the music that I haven't particularly noticed. Which I appreciate greatly! Thank you

[@MissHmusicK]

Love you, Chase! The best reactor in KZbin 💜 you deserve so much more subs and views! 😘

[@ChaseCarneson]

I'm grateful for what I have. Thank you so much for the support.

[@CapitanDePlai]

Thanks for this journey through the new album Chase!

[@jphuolman9020]

I love your analyzes.... Althought I am a Finn I have never listened Nightwish before... I just love to listen your deep analyzes of the piece...

[@ChaseCarneson]

Thank you so much for listening and commenting

[@dreamerxx8697]

Hey Chase, loved all of your reactions to new NW album. I hope you're planning to cover the "nature" part of the album, music on that one is extraordinary😊

[@ft4ngft4ng]

I liked the bit where Marco was awesome

[@acontadogui]

All the works of Nature which adorns the world. PLEASE!! It's such an amazing journey, so well conected to the first album. It'll be awesome. Cheers from Brazil and have a damn good day!

[@renejensen7799]

This song really grows on you, its one you will listen to when this album is older to..

[@Trevor21230]

What I love about this song--what makes it one of my favorites on the album, is the way Tuomas manages the buildup and release (or lack thereof) of tension. It feels as if the song is perpetually--endlessly, if you will--building towards a crescendo that never truly arrives in a manner befitting the buildup, and I think that's a perfect illustration of the title of the track.
