Rappers React To Nightwish "Lanternlight"!!!

[@2727rogers]

This masterpiece is quickly becoming my favorite Nightwish song. Always brings a tear to my eye because it makes me think about my Father who passed away in 1998.

[@janihaavisto79]

My condolences 🙏. My Father passed away 1 year 2 months ago at 68nyears old only. Mother passed only 2 years prior Dad. And my grandma died last January 4th. So in last 3yrs I've been in 3 funerals. I was so depressed for long time, but I noticed only month ago that depression had subsided finally. It takes time and there is no set timer when someone is supposed to be over those things. It can take 10 days or 10 yrs.

[@2727rogers]

@@janihaavisto79 So true and sorry for your loss.

A Masterpiece.....you need to react to An ocean of strange islands one of the best songs by Nightwish

"An ocean of strange islands" is waiting. Nevertheless - lanternlight is my favorite.

"PERFECTION"....Beautiful Floor touches your Heart again....

[@morbiouslenoir]

Indescribably beautiful. How fortunate we are that we live in a time where we can so easily listen to such music. I believe that listening to this song live in concert might very well break you.

[@evdb9588]

The goddess and her siren voice ❤❤❤❤

[@traceyraffle6675]

Adding Floor's amazing voice to the band's immense talent and Tuomas's genius composing and you get this masterpiece :)

[@anssia3123]

This entire album is a masterpiece, truly.

[@stpfs9281]

That's not only because it's new, there are gems and surprises!

[@zombiekillr0208]

from 54-year-old disabled combat vet, you guys are great! Bringing laughs into a hard day. Thank you

[@user-Rockmagix]

@zombiekillr0208 To an honored vet a special song by Floor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5aWmmpoYq2BbNE hope you like it!

[@jeffreycook2112]

I have watched this video at least 25 or 30 times already. And Goddess Floor has made me cry every time. The band came to her home in Sweden to record her vocals in her home studio while she was recovering from childbirth. They blocked out two weeks to record her, but she knocked it out in six days.

[@user-Rockmagix]

For me 10/10. And my song of the year 2024. And top3 in my Nightwish list.

[@HCH944]

I concur.

[@gilsorger6548]

Smokey, you said it all. Time, getting older (memories), death. That's the main theme of the album, in Tuomas's words. Nice reaction.

[@pdutchie4924]

Lanternlight is breathtakingly gorgeous ❣️ Not able to listen to this with dry eyes, it goes straight to your soul. It’s so fragile and strong at the same time. What a gorgeous piece of music composed by Tuomas and so emotionally sung by Floor. Tuomas said that Lanternlight is a song of love to celebrate live of the people that passed. In this case mainly his dad. My favorite song from the new album followed by An Ocean of Strange Islands.

[@frankmerris8821]

Best voice on earth and she is not even from here

[@irenehabes-quene2839]

Don’t know where you are from but she is from here as I am. I saw her live at a local venture in June, she’s been doing a lot of shows in her home country. Next year she’s doing a theatre show tour in the Netherlands and I got an email today from her platform ( Floorworld) about the tour. Can’t wait.

[@orangeguppie6897]

Thanks for your reaction guy's, i loved it. Floor recorded the songs in, about six day's Tuomas said in an interview. He was blown away that she did that. See you!!!

[@drewambler1235]

and 6 weeks postpartum to boot!

[@diedzjeeoudshoorn7726]

She capital S is a real Goddess. She controls your emotions, can break the sturdiest of men in a matter of seconds with her angelic voice, has a lot of wisdom, remains loyal to herself, despite all the attention, is a true fighter when experiencing headwinds, and at the end an absolute sweetheart. It is very hard not to like her. Floor for president.

[@davidschibner2664]

Been following you guys for years. Love all your reactions to all the different genre’s. The one I haven’t seen you guys do, that I really think you guys would really enjoy, is Night Wish’s I Want My Tears Back from the 2015 Buenos Aires show. They’re having a total party before, during, and after that song

[@evdb9588]

Smokey looks like he is mesmerised 😂 Floorgasm!!!!!!!

[@Donna-C]

So Beautiful. 🤍 Tuomas wrote this as a tribute in memory of his father. Great reaction. Your emotions throughout & your words at the end is exactly what Tuomas has always expressed - we “feel” music, the same as his poetry / lyrics - it’s whatever they mean to you personally. And it again proves that “Good Music is Good Music”. Yes there is a theme that runs throughout this new album Yesterwynde but also the previous 2 albums - now known as a Triology - lots of Easter Eggs hiding in the music, lyrics & videos.

[@stpfs9281]

"I am the snow on your palm", her hand gestures, magical.

[@Bonovin]

Lantern light is the last song of this album and also the last song of the trilogy theam of the 3 latest albums . The song sums up all the strings and looking back to missed relatives , friend and all good memories ....and the path before you , follow the lantern light. Greetings from NW army Sweden

[@kristaspecht]

Morning guys! Man, I saw this the other day,not gonna lie it brings tears to my eyes. So beautiful!!! Tryin not to cry again, lol I love nightlight! ....

[@PB-Trinity]

Floor doing what she does best : slaying and collecting our mortal souls with her voice...

[@scottb.4472]

My friend is a big Decore metal fan. He never heard of Nightwish. I decided to go out on a limb and made him watch this song to say I’ve never seen my friend cry before …..now I can say I have.

[@strabel803]

Nice to see you again guys👍 You know,i like some of the today's" pop" music also but,this is something else,this is mastery,almost witchcraft,music wich flows into your ears and brain ,were it explodes to a orgasm of the brain cells.☺ Pure and honest music.🤘

[@christomashofski9160]

Lanternlight is, according to Tuomas' comments in an interview, "A love letter to all those we have lost." He wrote this shortly after his father's death. I'm paraphrasing from memory here, "It may seem like a sad song at first, but it really isn't. If someone has lived a very long, very full, and good life, we should not mourn excessively over their death. Rather we should celebrate the good they did in their life and the guiding lantern light of their memory that they left for us to follow." About whether this is a concept album: Yes, it is the third in a trilogy of albums that covers a theme. The first was "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" from 2015 which was a celebration of the beauty and magnificence of the development of life on Earth. The second was "Human:||:Nature" from 2020 which was a two disc album, the "Human" disc was a survey of humans' life and deeds both the good and the bad, while the "Nature" disc was Tuomas' "love letter to Planet Earth" and was a complete instrumental performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra with no metal band parts. This album, "Yesterwynde," is an admonition to look back in time (wind back the clock or "wynde" back the clock) and learn to appreciate our ancestry and all the suffering and triumphs they had to endure in order for you and I to even just exist (Perfume of the Timeless), to look back at the history of leaders, both political and religious, using the media of their day to control the populace through manufactured, fake apocalypse and fear narratives of "never-ending doom porn" (The Day of...). It has a very 1980's pop vibe rather than metal, presumably because it mentions Orwell's "1984" as a canvas for the story. If you notice in the strange video, it begins with the band mesmerized by a giant TV screen bombarding them with fear and apocalypse stories as Floor puts eyedrops from a creepy bottle, apparently applying "filters" to their visual interpretation of the "truth." They all have leprous-looking peeling skin like the zombie apocalypse. Then they are all sucked into the vacuum of the TV screen and tumble helplessly and endlessly through the imaginary world of the doom narrative. Let's just say Tuomas gets it! He really GETS what is going on to deceive us all in this crazy psyops world we're stuck in.

[@ianknowles8934]

Ocean of Strange Islands next. Btw Smokey has it spot on about the concept album.

[@geertdelange4785]

An absolute Masterpiece Metalband only playing with classic instruments. ❤ Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@miyahsmommy7172]

Tuomas wrote this after loosing his father. This was his way of memorializing his father, but it could mean so much more. I can now listen to this song without crying. This whole album is amazing. They do have some of their older sound, but the creativity that was displayed on this album is amazing. The Children of Atta is amazing, Spidersilk is beautiful. The Weave is great!! I can go on!!

[@anterohoo7554]

Sympathetic rappers, great Nightwish and tender Lanternlight. This works - thank you being funny & brave with your feelings too. Great work, dudes!

[@frenkwd1]

It's about people who have passed away but are seen again in the daily things we do. They are always with you in everything you see and hear. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@easleyreacts5827]

Such a amazing song! funny you mention Disney cause this one reminds me of Frozen. I might have teared up 3 times while reacting to this one, on my bucket list is to see them live finally.

[@mattihopiavuori353]

Great reaction 👏👏👏 This is the most beautiful, soul gripping, heart stringing, fulfilling, masterful celebration for and remembrance of one’s father ❤️‍🔥 Tuomas is an absolute genius! My father, the strongest man I know and the cornerstones of my entire being/life, passed on cpl of years ago; on the waining hour of my Birthday. He had truly endured physically and emotionally for over 20 years after multiple strokes and other health challenges. His peaceful passing on was a true blessing; so much so that I had yet to shed one tear; until now! The combination of Tuomas’ yet another compositional and lyrical masterpiece and its manifestation by Floor and Troy finally opened my floodgates 💦💦 No amount of Finnish 🇫🇮 inner strength enhancing, emotion blocking, words (sisu, saatana, perkele) could hold back the desperately needed and necessary outpouring of emotions, reflections, remembrance, appreciation, flashbacks, re-lived joy and eternal love. Genuine tears do have healing powers! Tuomas, Floor, Nightwish, “Lanternlight” - ❤️‍🔥and thank you to The G.O.A.T. IMHO, there has never been, there will never be, another Nightwish!

[@Skotty1899]

Gorgeous video and perhaps the best Nightwish song I've ever heard.

Always fine to see you two doing your things😂😂😂

[@jompuusi]

Greetings from Finland 😍

[@janihaavisto79]

Trash talkers if you haven't seen Floor been interviewed by Elizabeth Shariff from The Charismatic Voice ,I suggest that you do so. There is lot of interesting stuff that they talk. Including what NW songs made Floor cry when she first time tried to sing songs. Decades in the Sun is one of those song's, and if memory serves this Lanternlight was other one because of the soft start. NW fan from Finland says Hello and see y'all soon again.

[@AndrewCampbell-w4e]

The new Nightwish album has amazing symphonic pieces like this and also some very heavy music. They've split it well. It's the best album in a while. Probably the best since Imaginaerum

[@afterisforever]

Hiraeth is perhaps my favourite song on the album but spoilt for choice really. Great reaction, wish you guys all the best - God Bless.

[@jebbiekik3033]

Funny you mention Disney. Listen to Spidersilk next. It gives me a Frozen vibe. With a little bit of imagination you can make the themesong for Shelob, the big spider from Lord Of The Rings. 😁🤟🏻

[@eviljeep]

I've got already a good 2024 top 10 song of the year prepared.. but this song was release. A top 3 for me easily.👌

[@corneliusantonius3108]

Floor came from heaven and blessed us with her voice.

[@RichardRitenour0522]

What does the term 'yesterwynde' mean? "It describes a feeling that cannot be found in any human language. That's why we had to invent a whole new word. The album is supposed to open that feeling to the listener."

[@aishahackett3388]

It was six DAYS not 7 weeks. Toumas had planned on a lot longer than that.

[@ericavantilburg6252]

I believe she recorded her vocals in 6 days, but 6 weeks after giving birth to Lucy❤

[@lordbird934]

Todas las veces que he intentado eschucar no puedo llegar hasta el final, mi mujer fallecio hace un año con 52 años en el 2023 son muchos recuerdos y mi padre tambien 2023.Es una obra maestra.

[@ImrevanSanten]

Two dudes in trance ❤

[@okiejohn3925]

Tuomas wrote this album during the pandemic/lockdown, so I think reflection was bound to be in his motive when writing it.

[@stpfs9281]

It must have been difficult to pick the singles, they have a few surprises. The whole album weaves together so well (oh, the tapestry of life, "The Weave"). A Rugby "Haka"? Actually a Tongan "Sipi Tau"! Hank Marvin guitar 🎸? What sounds like a Monks choir? Also what we were all waiting for, a soaring Floor!

[@TheLassenman]

The male voice you hear at the end is Troy ☺

[@jasoncawley7512]

On the subject of your intro conversation, if you really want to know why the band name is "Nightwish", you have to watch/react to "Dead Boy's Poem", with full lyrics. I suggest the live from Buenos Aires 2018 performance.

[@NightwishArmyItalianDivision]

nice ❤

[@inkubuzz]

Guys, Dream Theater released their new single, with Mike Prtnoy back on drums, 20 minutes ago. "Night Terror"...must react!

I may not have a patreon with you guys but I really want to request a song by the band orden ogan called Gunman it's German power metal and I feel like you guys will like it enough to want to explore more.of the band I can guarantee it keep up the good work I love your videos

Trash talkers...did you ever listen to ayreon.. a dutch musicproject? You can start with ..the day that the world breaks down. I am sure you like it.😊

[@guidoheuts]

Hello there Trash Talkers, great reaction guys! And Floor is amazing. But I want to point you to this voice also. I'm always on the lookout for more quality female vocals. I feel kinda ashamed that only just seven months ago I've discovered the wonderfull voice of Dianne van Giersbergen. Dianne is a Dutch spinto soprano, she was the founder and frontwoman of the former progressive metal band Ex Libris. Also she was the main vocalist of German symphonic metal band Xandria from 2013 to 2017. Dianne went through a life-saving abdominal surgery that she endured five years ago (2019) which wasn’t without risk: “while this surgery saved me, I could have lost the one thing that has been my lifelong companion, my refuge, and my loved one: my voice.” Dianne said. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKaXeKOHd6h0a6s Dianne currently is working on a solo album called "Soulward Bound", and with the third single of that album called; "A Symphonic Tragedy" through the lyrics, she opened up on that harrowing time. Previously released songs are "After the Storm" and "Unleash the Siren". And about a month ago she released her fourth single called; "Flameborn". So guys, if you like powerfull vocals, trust me this is one to keep in mind. I fell in love with that voice 7 months ago. Greetings from the first airborne division of the Nightwish army based at Maastricht, The Netherlands. This is Dianne van Giersbergen feat. Marcela Bovio - "Flameborn" kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5XNeGBnhLOEgqc
