Wembley version is fantastic. BUT Tampere is from another universe. Floor is the godess and valkyrie there 😁. And yes Floor has bis own channel. She did covers during Corona and released her first solo song "Fire" a few days ago 😊. You also need to check out her bands before NW. After Forever and ReVamp. You will get an idea why she is the perfect match for NW.

[@storchartmarco5408]

Greatest band in the history of humanity! Anyone can argue, but I stand behind this 100%! Greatest band EVER!

[@chriso6719]

The song was inspired by books written by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, who does the spoken parts and ,yep, he is the one on stage at the end with the Darwin quote. It's about the formation of the solar system and the evolution of life. Later, go watch the version from Tampere. It's outside with fireworks and Troy's part starts with the Irish Low whistle as opposed to the guitar with EBOW here. Lucy refers to the partial skeleton found in Africa, the oldest human ancestor remains ever found. LUCA is the Last Universal Common Ancestor, the last life form from which all current life descends. There was also a part on the evolution of music, including a piece by J.S.Bach, the riff from Meatallica's Enter Sandman, and EDM, among other pieces. Tuomas is actually the tallest at 6'2" to her 6'0", but she is wearing heels. The length of video doesn't matter as long as the quality is there. And with Nightwish, the quality is ALWAYS there.

[@ML_SE]

Lucy was the oldest but in 1994 one even older prehuman was found in Ethiopia called Ardi who dates back to 4.4 million years ago. Lucy is the most famous one of the two probably because it was a big deal when she was found. 🤓🏴‍☠️🇸🇪🇺🇦🕊

[@northof4912]

@@ML_SE I think the discovery of Lucy was a significant change to the understanding of the timeline of human evolution. Subsequesnt discoveries have pushed timelines further back but were not as significant in the greater scheme.

[@ML_SE]

@@northof4912 You're right and it's a really interesting topic. The rabbit hole I've fallen into is the time human split from Bonobos and chimpanzees and when we split from the Macaca mulatta (the rhesus macaque). We have so much in common with the rhesus macaque and our last common ancestor lived about 25 million years ago and about 20 million later we had our last common ancestor with the Bonobos and the chimpanzees and I think the 20 million gap is very interesting. 🤓🏴‍☠️🇸🇪🇺🇦🕊

❤️🤘🤘🤘

[@kentk2215]

Jumping right into the deep end of the Nightwish pool. This was the third of Tuomas’ magnum opuses. This one written for Floor. The first, written for Tarja, was Ghost Love Score. The second, written for Anette (or recorded by her anyway), The Poet and the Pendulum, is his most emotional piece, and one you might want to wait a bit to watch, after you understand more of the band history and background of the song. Not that you wouldn’t appreciate it’s genius now, but it is incredibly powerful when you fully understand it. This, the third, is kind of the history of the earth, and an homage to mankind’s brief time here. Love this Wembley version with Richard Dawkins in person. Check out the amazing Tampere version too. Amazing! WE WERE HERE!

[@GOTGames]

Sounds like I'm definitely going to have to check out much more! And the other love version! This rabbit hole is bottomless!

[@Sarcasticron]

When Floor was a child, she wanted to be a biologist, so I expect she can appreciate and relate to a lot of the lyrics here.

[@jmkrpl]

The Poet and the Pendulum always hits me right in the feels. It's also so personal piece for Tuomas.

[@johntilghman]

@@Sarcasticron Tuomas wanted to be a biologist, I am not sure if Floor did or not. But it wouldn't surprise me.

[@Deilwynna]

@@johntilghman arjen lucassen did mention in the "when the world breaks down" video for his ayreon project that floor wanted to be a biologist at one point

[@Aaron46L]

Not specifically Nightwish, but you should check out Floor’s performances on the show Beste Zangers. Specifically Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort.

[@Fabi72g]

My suggestion is not check the Beste Zangers videos, but her solo show in Amsterdam instead, as a true live show with audience I find it better, and you will support her instead of a TV channel. More, the live show will never be blocked, the Beste Zangers video sometimes are blocked. For the Phantom it's only needed a bit of patience, as it is not yet released on her channel.

[@kliajesal4592]

"Have Nightwish ever been brought on to do a movie soundtrack?" Kinda... the music video for I Wish I Had An Angel was directed by the notorious German director Uwe Boll because he used that song in one of his movies, I don't remember which one. Tuomas also masterminded a movie called Imaginaerum, which the album of the same name was built around... or vice versa, not entirely sure which. Look it up!

[@CCEDE73]

Tuomas (the keyboard player) has written the song. He writes all their music. Here he has been inspired by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins.

[@GOTGames]

All insanely talented! Such an amazing band

[@northof4912]

@@GOTGames Another relevant point is that both Tuomas and Floor wanted to be biologists when they were kids - and that likely had an influence on this song. I believe they both have species named after them as well.

I was awestruck. my son was with me and kept asking the name of each song. I couldn't answer him. I was completely overwhelmed. I left that arena in tears.

That cello sound in the beginning is Troy playing the guitar with an e-bow.

[@richardgoddard37]

The guy on guitar (with e-bow) at the start, and then the Uillean (Irish bagpipes) pipes, is Troy Donockley from Workington in Cumberland. He taught himself how to play the pipes as there were very few experts in England at that time. By the time he'd saved enough to get over to Ireland there wasn't much they could teach him ! He's an interviewer's nightmare as he's got a very British sense of humour.

[@MikkoRantalainen]

@@jaskau2462 Majority of the people in Finland do speak Finnish as mother tongue. About 3-5% of the people use Swedish as mother tongue. But pretty much everybody born since 1970 knows English very well but the pronunciation is weird because only written English was actually taught in the schools for a long time. As a result, many people pronounce English using Finnish pronounciation for the same written text. This is nowadays known as "rallienglanti" (Rally driver English). Officially Finland has three official languages: Finnish, Swedish and Sami. And Swedish has this special status of being required for all government positions for historical reasons. In practice, you have to pass special examination in Swedish to apply to any government position. In practice, English is often jokingly called "kolmas kotimainen" (literally meaning 3rd national language) because it's so well understood here. Most people know English better than Swedish even though English is not an official language here.

I cannot hear this song without getting tears in my eyes, no matter how many times I hear it the effect is still there. Seen them live quite a few times and after 25 years of trying to convince my wife is finally coming to a gig with me this year so her first ever gig will be Nightwish. You should definitely check out Meadows of Heaven. It's from the period when Annette was singing for Nightwish and I think it's probably the most beautiful piece of music ever recorded

The Nightwish army will be there with you, your reactions help us relive what it was like the first time we saw these concerts or videos. I believe your thoughts about Floor are on the money as well, she is a beautiful woman but when she sings there are no words strong enough to describe her. Follow Gabriel's list and you can't go wrong.

[@nikkinoise1]

I love the Tampere version, everything is very special about it. The fact that they were at home, that Floor's parents were in the audience, the production, the fireworks... But this song was written and composed by music genius Tuomas, based on the book by science genius Dawkins, which is in the stage. This is priceless. As much as I watch it a million times, I always cry.

[@gbusse]

"Floor has a channel?"... Ya Buddy, and so does Marko. You have literally only barely scratched the surface of everything Nightwish and Nightwish related. And, once you are ready for more, there are several other amazing Symphonic Metal bands to check out as well, including Epica, Within Temptation, Kamelot (male lead vocalist) and more. I look forward to following you down the the rabbit hole that will be your Journey of Nightwish & Symphonic Metal Discovery. And then, when you think you might be nearing the light at the end of the tunnel, there is some Progressive Metal / Rock Opera in the form of the Aryeon project ready to blow you away. So much to enjoy 🤘

[@rickphil9999]

Amazing how a twenty-four-minute song can feel so short. Loved your reactions throughout this performance.This is another of Tuomas's masterpiece compositions. The opening with just the keyboard and backing track, then Troy joined in with the eBow on the electric guitar... later playing Uilean Pipes (Irish Elbow Bagpipes), every member of this band performing at a top level. And you said it perfectly describing the combination of Floor's voice and stage presence. Incredible. I can't wait to see them live at the Warfield in San Francisco on May 18th, part of their May 2022 North America Tour. All you Nightwish fans out there, please help them sell out every venue on this Tour.

Lucy is the name given to an australopithecine female found in the Afar peninsula of Ethiopia, thus the name Australopithecus Afarensis. It was the first Australopithecus found and at the time the oldest hominid (MUCH OLDER at the time) fossil found AND it walked upright. So Lucy became known as "Eve", or "mother of humanity". Of course, we do not know if she had children or if the children also mated, but in case that happened, it's very probable she is an ancestor of all of humanity (not the only one of course, as the genes would have crossed back and forth) Do not confuse with LUCA mentioned in the start of the song, Last Universal Common Ancestor. Which is the "species" (if we can call such primitive life as "species") from which ALL LIFE ON EARTH descends from.

[@calibadgerdude6082]

I honestly think my favorite part of this song is the last spoken word section over the orchestra. As a lover of classical music and film score, that composition is so, so powerful, and it just lefts my soul to a state of pure euphoria. It’s triumphant, majestic, and just all around awe inspiring, and the Dawkins quote over top of it is so inspiring and just makes you want to be the best you that you can be. Brilliant.

You really get a sense of what a beautiful soul she is from those videos.

Nightwish is probably one of the greatest bands on earth! What's awesome is that each of the members is a genius at what they do. I definitely would recommend checking out Auri, a band including Tuomas and Troy, with Tuomas's wife Johanna as the main vocalist

[@mariannenordh9693]

I really really REALLY enjoy every reaction you post with Nightwish! 😃👍 It makes me happy to see how happy you become when you react to them 😃 Keep it up! 👍

[@dew2334]

Love your reactions so much excitement you are right Floor is simply amazing, I would love you to react to some of her solo songs their you can truly here her vocals isolated. More Nightwish please.

[@nikkinoise1]

Each Nightwish musician is an entire band. Floor is possibly the best metal vocalist to ever walk the earth, without a doubt, the songs with her and especially the live performances reach a higher level. But Nightwish is a window into the soul of Tuomas, who is, in my opinion, the greatest musical genius of our time. That's why he's my love.

Skipping the last part, is l a no go!!! Keep the NW reactions coming or Floor reactions. You are not the only one loving Floor for what she does on stage. I have seen her live in Amsterdam for her solotour and it was awesome. All the songs she performerd are on her channel, so looking forward to those reactions.

[@alexbarton5771]

Oh and if you want to hear her growl/scream then listen to Yours is an empty hope

[@paddydurkin2308]

Glad you reacted to this version... you get to hear Troy at the beginning with some haunting vibes on guitar and pipes.. you did pause on kai,s drum solo but I'll let that slide as your reactions are hyped in a good way... 👍 looking forward to the next nightwish reaction 😄

[@jasonculver4725]

I can not remember who said this before but it's so true about Floor. You know the saying you have the crowd in the palm on your hand well the problem with is if you tilt your hand the crowd falls off. Floor put the crowd in the palm of her hand then she clenches her fist and holds on to the crowd through the whole preference. Glad you love Floor but she is married to the Drummer of the Band Sabaton. Would be cool if you checked out that Band. They are great live performers as well. Not as good as Nightwish but a good band that most of there songs are about History of Wars and Battles that took place in the history of the world.

[@ebonyroseshawol6316]

Sabaton is awesome! I love that every one of their songs has a story behind it. What a great way to recognize history!

[@sealaryn]

Yass. Love your longer videos 🥰

[@ricardosilva6]

Thanks for making this react, you are amazing at reacting. Nightwish is an amazing band, Tuomas is fantastic. please react to The Poet and the Pendulum Wembley a real roller coaster of emotions. hugs from Portugal 🇵🇹

[@randyburrill2340]

YES! Floor is the crown jewel in this gorgeous crown!

[@tobster955]

Well done!! And thanks for watching the whole video - as you saw, you would have missed additional profound moments, worth listening to and experiencing!

[@Rico.at.50]

I've seen them twice live where they played this song - the first time in Silver Spring, MD with Sabaton and then on the Decades tour in Baltimore where they were the sole act. Both times were incredible.

[@michamcnobe1460]

yes, Floor has an own channel, suggest you visit it and react on some of her cover and own songs. You will not be disappointed.

[@karelkarel6721]

That's amazing. Your face looks similar to mine when watching their songs :) I was at the Nightwish concert and it was one of the best concerts in my life.
