[@montodorova]

Thank you Nightwish for existing!

[@raksh9]

Yesss agreed!

[@cr1s1s0ff41th]

absolutely ♥️

[@laurikguitarcovers2251]

Amen!

[@rosiezzz607]

Well said!!

[@ariannecordeiro534]

Omg yes, exactly

[@craigramsay53]

And THIS is what sets Nightwish apart from everyone else. This brilliant mind of Tuomas and how he is able to set the products of that mind to a musical score.

[@SynphamyMusic]

I love that Nightwish are exploring topics like this, there's so much music that use the same tired themes and trends. When something blows up you get countless other bands starting to do the same thing that's like fast food music, it doesn't really 'nourish' me anymore. It's such a breath of fresh air to see something so different and it's told in a way that makes me ponder things beyond the songs. This is what i've been waiting to hear again. Thanks Nightwish for never following, and always putting the music first.

[@kozmycblues666]

Comparto todo. En las personas hay como cierta voracidad por lo descartable, lo efímero y lo breve. No importa el contenido. Cómo si fuera la vida una app. Patética humanidad.👍

[@majbrat]

Wonderful!!!

[@marissalorion1244]

That’s exactly how I feel when I listen to your music, Nightwish. I also share your awe and admiration for nature and evolution. Thanks for your work! 🙏

[@r_v_g]

A big thanks to all off you Nightwish band and crew, so many years and still being an inspiration. If you let THAT sing in, thats also a miracle.

[@yerviniansamvel]

Wow I can't wait to see more about making this new album,Tuomas is a genius

[@elviira2486]

I’m not a very religious person, but certain patterns of melody and harmony make me feel that I’ve just experienced a glimpse of divinity. Nightwish has brought so much beauty into my life! ❤

[@SymphonicEllen]

I'm not either, but the amount of love that goes into their music is something that helps keep my belief in God. I respect evolution and quite like Mr Dawkins because a lot of work went into that, too, and you don't generally put lots of work into something you don't like unless it's out of necessity but there's something special when someone comes up with great music or art. I don't know if it's because of a greater love for it, or what, but I think God probably knew the world needed Nightwish.

Yeah I really don't think tuomas would like someone as inconsiderate as you.

[@Cristi4n_Ariel]

"To tell why this world is worth saving, and why is so great to be alive", Completely agree Tuomas!

[@KellyDeaconKDzJOY]

I found Nightwish by music reactions starting in 2019 (KZbin). Inspiration is born from Tuomas because he understands there is a universal 'reason & rhyme' that binds all things. His is the heart of a true poet, and he's tapped into this unseen but felt force. Those that have come to know Nightwish, understand this concept at a deeper level.

[@rosiezzz607]

I’m definitely gonna watch all of these

[@sepponiemi2330]

Just kuuntelin uusinta kappaletta lauantaina kotimatkalla, kello huiteli puoltayötä ja koska asutaan reilusti napapiirin pohjoispuolella, niin aurinko helotti pilvettömältä taivaalta. Piti oikein pysähtyä, sammuttaa auto ja kuunnella ympäröivää luontoa. Samalla pohtien juuri kuulemani taideteosta ja että miten voikin tehdä lähtemättömän vaikutuksen sellainen asia jonka jo tiedän, kun se asia on puettu tällaiseen muotoon. Ja se musiikki oli kuin osa sitä karun kaunista Ylä-Lapin luontoa, mitä saan onnekseni tarkkailla joka päivä. Kiitoksia sinulle Tuomas, että olet saanut puettua ajatuksesi tällaiseen muotoon. Kiitos kuuluu myös kaikille poppoon muille jäsenille jotka ovat olennainen osa sitä instrumenttia mitä soitat, koska näen että Nightwish on se instrumentti. PS. Ei haittaa vaikka joskus kuulisi teidän tekemäänne musiikkia, teidän esittämänänne täällä Inarissa.

[@laudatosiadastra1218]

Nightwish is a jewel in the evolution of music. Breathtaking beauty hits my ears and my soul.

[@VickenIshkhanian]

I have been digging into ancient history of this planet for the last decade and discovered many things that shocked me to my core! Not surprised that Tuomas has also embraced that in his music. If that is his life’s mission then I think he is doing a fantastic job.

[@rickphil9999]

Such a beautiful mind that is Tuomas Holopainen. Thank you for creating our beloved Nightwish and for sharing your music and your soul with us.

[@deadlynightshade1658]

It's so nice to hear Tuomas speak Finnish. As a person who learns this language, I find it very useful and pleasant. ❤

[@anteg9084]

I am not learning Finnish, but it's still nice to hear him speak in his native language (glad there are subtitles though!).

[@RikeConstanze]

Goosebumps! I'm so excited for Yesterwynde! ❤ To name some of the songs that always make me cry: The intro of "The Greates Show on Earth" when Troy plays his pipes, "Moors" and "Ad Astra" from "All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World". Also, "Beauty of the Beast" or Floor's finale in "Shoemaker". And to not only name Nightwish songs, I also get this feeling when I listen to the score of Gladiator, "Honor Him" and "Now we are Free" and other film scores, or epic songs by Two Steps From Hell. Some days ago, I visited the Natural History Museum in London again. While I was walking through the museum, I listened to the two latest Nightwish albums. I am always overwhelmed by a feeling of awe listening to the songs that are inspired by nature, evolution, and scientists while walking through my favourite museum, also called the "Cathedral of Nature" 💚 Thank you Nightwish for this experience!

[@cr1s1s0ff41th]

this sounds amazing! i definitely need go to more museums

[@ZvonimirVeljaca]

John Williams - The Force Theme for me.....

[@AntonioRBarreto]

My favourite band ❤❤❤❤

[@WardDorrity]

Nightwish and the beautiful mind of Tuomas Holopainen makes music that just lifts your soul right out of your body. How can we accept any less than that?

[@mariettalyon]

It's so magical that all of us here share certain receptors in our brain, heart and soul that receive so many different and unique emotions listening to these masterpieces. They make me cry, they give me goosebumps everytime I hear them. I once read from a music teacher that he teaches about Tuomas as one of the greatest composers to the kids in school. Tuomas writes music for the past, present and future. But WE are the lucky ones who can enjoy this music live. Thank you for existing Nightwish, we are truly HONORED to be you fans 💜

[@amandadunkley1686]

Thanks nightwish, it is amazing to me also how music has this ability to evoke such an emotional response, and yet we don't understand how or why. Your music does that, and for that I'm eternally grateful - thankyou ❤

[@RuthlessBiscuit3]

So many negative things can be averted if we had the same mindset as Tuomas. To never lose faith and hope in humanity is beautiful. Thank you, @Nightwish ❤️

[@silverblack5475]

Thank You 😊......That's how I feel when I hear your music with Floors voice accompanying it .

[@Donna-C]

Thankyou to the Storyteller & the talented musicians. - We are the lucky ones! ✨WE WERE HERE! ✨

[@lekalla]

This will be interesting, thank you Nightwish and whoever decided to make this👍

[@vhou8128]

Nightwish, best band, thank you !🙏

[@esu_wishmaster7875]

It’s awesome to see Tuomas talking with so much passion about what inspires him to make new music after all those years. I still hope to listen to many, many new magical songs made him, whether it’s with Nightwish, Auri or any crazy idea he comes up.

[@TerryDrumCovers1951]

Thank you Tuomas for making incredible music for so many years. I could not have said this better myself.

[@Em-ih5du]

Tuomas, for you it's Hans Zimmer, for me it's you with "Ad Astra". There's so many songs of yours that I love but it's that one that makes me cry every time. It's not about the Carl Sagan quote, though it's a beautiful and important one. Lyrics? There's none, just vocalization. There's something in it. Something in the pattern of the strings, the heartbeat like of the drums that makes me cry and euphoric at the same time. It makes me want to move. Not exactly dance - more like spin in place. Spin the way I used to when I was a carefree little girl. As adults, we forget to do things just because they're fun like spinning and skipping and stepping in puddles. Thank you for adding to the mystery!

[@hardanheavy]

And you have several songs on that list of incredibly emotional and powerful songs, maestro. Thank you.

[@matthiasweijters3240]

And that´s why Tuomas is such a maestro!🙏🏾 🤟🏿

[@simoncrowthet3928]

One of my most favourite bands and whatever they do is absolutely amazing and pure magical music for the human soul thank you Nightwish ❤️

This is why i love Nightwish. Its not just about det music and vocals, is the whole story. Thank you Tuomas and co for the magic ❤

[@kezca]

Thankyou Nightwish We are lucky to be living in thia world where you are making wonderful music for us to hear .

[@delain87]

YES! It's a feeling I get when I listen to the greatest show on earth. I can't listen wirhout crying so hard, especially in the beginning when there is only the piano part and then during Troy playing pipes. There is no other song that gives me this emotion. Not even close (and I cry to alot of songs). It hits like the "innerst core" and I can't even explain. Thank you for creating Nightwish!!!

[@skywird333]

Thank you nightwish for everything you have ever done and will do ♥️🤘

Let's GO, this is cool, did not expect this so soon after the release of the first single ! Can't wait to see how it all went ? 🤗🤘

[@charbelgeryess3034]

i still listening to waken concert till now since 11 years you made a historical show that,never been died for me ❤nightwish is my best band and i wish they never stoped making all that phenomenal music❤❤❤

[@missrubyphoenix]

Tuomas' thinking process never ceases to amaze me; he's a man of logic, yes, but also a dreamer, a sweet, gentle soul, I've sensed that multiple times, even when there are people who do not see him as someone empathetic, but rather strict or even cold-hearted. A cold person wouldn't have such vision of the world, humanity, friendship, and/or the tight bond between that he has with the rest of the team, which has created so many gorgeoua songs, because their energies flow in harmony with one another. I'm so looking forward to watch the next part(s) of this documentary.

[@cindybrownfield9483]

There are Nightwish songs that bring out the same reaction with me...the first few notes and I have tears in my eyes. Being the genealogist in the family the opening numbers of ancestors were not a surprise to me and yet they still bring up may emotions ...Thank you for all the years of past music and always ready for the music there is still to come.

[@JeanPinheiro-nc2pl]

Nightwish the best heavy metal band in the world!

[@Musicality-66]

I wish it was next Monday already; can’t wait for the next video! 🙋‍♀️🤘💕

Thank you Tuomas Holopainen and all the Nightwish members for the beautiful music.

[@putthekettleonwillya]

Finnish to me is the most beautiful language. I could listen to it for hours. It sounds magical.

[@EternalWishes96]

This is the first time I joined the premiere for a video on youtube! This was way too short 😂! I could listen to him for hours. I´m a huge fan of Hans Zimmer, too. Chevaliers De Sangreal is indeed a beautiful song. It never fails to make me emotional. I´m looking forward to the next parts of the documentary!

[@user-tv4ot9cc1f]

A serious message to think about life and our planet. I am proud of such important songs from Nightwish-you are great 🤍

[@ee97056]

I feel the same about music. Thank you Nightwish for your work

[@KevinHollisWI]

NightWish, not just a band, but a representation of all the good in the world, all the mystery in the world, all the knowledge there is in the world yet to be discovered. NightWish truly is a once in a lifetime band. I am humbled to say I have seen them live and Honored to have all their autographs, some multiple autographs and some as even 4 times. For me, when I reach Heaven and am asked what I loved the best about my experience in Earth, my answer will be “the beauty, the wonder and the Music”! Thank you Tuomas and fellow members of NightWish! ❤️🤘🙏

[@jacquisampson-marat5277]

[@florianh.5263]

Tuomas, I feel the same with Hans Zimmer - one of the greatest show I ever seen live! And I can told YOU, that some songs from Nightwish and Auri touches my soul in the exactly same way! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@rosiezzz607]

WHAT OMG I’M SO EXCITED ABT THIS

September has never seemed so far away!

[@aphiliarachno]

Great, great, great. I love that the music is not only cool and fun but meaningful and deep at the same time. Like discribed in this clip, there are only very few songs that really touch me emotionally, and most of these are by Nightwish.

I have never witnessed a more inspiring and special person than Tuomas❤️ how can you have such a special and wonderful view on this planet, mankind and life when we are surrounded by destruction, war, and all the everyday bs that is going on. Thank you for being a spark of hope in these dark times, thank you for pointing out the beauty and wonders this planet, this universe has to offer and thank you for putting these deep feelings into even deeper words and music for us to experience ❤️

Oh Tuomas, you know, everytime I hear Nightwish - Aurorae, I cry. And there's nothing I can do about it :) You guys are such a gift.

[@gwynbleidd_witcher]

Thank you Nightwish and Tuomas especially. Your music is an essential part of my whole life from yong age, I m listening to it for 18 years and somehow I always in touch with you mentally through all this years. In my teenage it was your songs about love, fantasy and imagination that brought me tears and made me happier. And now I am into science and your last albums give me strength to live through hard times. Thank you for your existence! You are making the world a better place.

[@coolgabe64]

This is just amazing.

[@stevesmith3990]

Thank you for the music and reminding us of the mind blowing nature of existence.

[@Leonswe13]

That magical, unexplainable feeling when you hear something incredible, happens to me as well. Poet and the pendulum, Ghost love score, Song of myself, Shoemaker, Tribal are a few of them. Also songs from other bands, but not as often as songs by Nightwish. Makes me happy, sad, makes me cry, gives me shivers all over, gives me strength. Dont know why, just does. Thank you Nightwish for making some of the best music Ive ever heard. And for having the best singer in the world. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@progbloke6655]

September can't come soon enough !

[@kimmikke_]

Kuuntelin Perfume of the Timeless:in ja jäin hiljaisuuteen haukkomaan henkeä ja tajusin, että olin unohtanut hengittää kuunnellessani ja katsoessani. Tässä nykyisessä muovisessa kertakäyttö musiikki maailmassa on yksi johtotähti, joka saa musiikillaan tuntemaan sielussa asti, ajattelemaan asioita uusilta näkökulmilta ja arvostamaan ja rakastamaan elämää ja sen kaikkia ihmeitä - nimittäin Nightwish ja sen valkoinen velho Tuomas! En ole vuosiin muuta musiikkia kuunnellut tai katsonut kuin Nightwish:iä, koska ns. Tavallinen musiikki ei enää tunnu miltään ja on liian tylsää, selailen jatkuvasti Nightwish:in musiikkia, sillä se täyttää kaikki tarpeeni ja haluni musiikissa, runoudessa, taiteessa ja tieteessä! Odotan kuola valuen seuraavaa Albumia!

[@noahreaver8375]

Same happens to me, every time I listen to The Greatest Show on Earth, I cry, and I can't do anything about it.

[@annaszel-6433]

[@keithteaser]

Always great to see the guys working in harmony on a new album..love Nightwish!

[@SilverSalamence]

Cant agree more on how amazing it is that we are all here today. Life is a miracle and the world IS worth saving and valuing. So many people are deeply misanthropic and jaded, but people are worth saving, the world is worth saving, and its a great joy to see a band that celebrates the world instead. Music is incredible indeed and its a joy to see such a wonderful and ancient medium of expression used speak of the miracle of existing. Patiently waiting for September 20th! Thank you! Kiitos! Dank je!
