The Weave, last step on my journey through the new Nightwish album: Yesterwynde. (Reaction)

[@kaito462]

one of my favourite song on the album

[@kaNjiXIII]

Absolutely! ❤️

[@KaisaValkama]

Hello and thank you for this Christmas present! At first I thought what a pitty to react the songs slightly in wrong order, but now I 'm happy to see you smiling at the end of this beautiful journey. Lanterlight made you cry and Christmas is knocking on our doors. So it's nice to end it this way. 3 days ago I saw 44minutes long ' making of Yestervynde', they showed how they recorded Antikythera mechanism-sou ds in special studio...no sound was machine-made in this album.Kai told this song was ' heaviest' for him to play. I hope You will continue reacting Nightwish, because Human Nature- album, previous to this was amazing too..and I really enjoyed this journey. Thank you so much. Happy Christmas! Sincerely yours Kaisa ❤

The songs and the whole album get better with each listening. 🤘

[@jimharris367]

Amazing song, basically just a five minute goosebump - and when you listen to Lanternlight after this it is, as you said, absolutely perfect 🤘

[@kaNjiXIII]

It really is. I have to admit, I was still too scared (in a way) to listen to the album in full, with weave and then lanternlight int the end. xD

[@jimharris367]

@kaNjiXIII when you do, sit down with a drink of your choice, get comfortable and immerse yourself in the amazing world that Nightwish and Tuomas create - trust me, taken as a whole it's greater than the sum of its parts 🤘

[@noahreaver8375]

Best album from Nightwish Best song from the album My top 1 song (not only from NW)

[@kaNjiXIII]

Glad I could finally listen to it and I hope my video did the song justice.

[@noahreaver8375]

@@kaNjiXIII your face on "the unweaving has begun" was exactly my face the first time :P

[@yerviniansamvel]

One of the greatest song

[@alanbaggs3730]

Thank you from the UK for your journey and excellent reactions. Simply a brilliant album. I wonder what Nightwish will do next to try and too Yesterwynde.. I just hope it will not be too many years before the next albums both from the band and hopefully another solo album from the fabulous Floor are with us. Being in my mid 70's just hope to still be around when the follow up albums are released.

[@yerviniansamvel]

I think it's about when we are born and life is ending

[@kaNjiXIII]

I think you are right about that. :)

[@k.l.7788]

Can you imagine what this will be live!?!? 🤯🤯🤯🤯❤❤❤

[@stephanie.r382]

Thankyou!! I enjoyed being on your Yesterwynde journey with you. You always made insightful and thoughtful comments about the songs. I hope you have a happy Christmas and wonderful New Year.

[@kaNjiXIII]

Thank you for your comment. I'm glad I was able to add something of value, wasn't sure of it in the beginning to be honest, but comments like yours are really a joy to read.

[@stephanie.r382]

@kaNjiXIII ah you are so welcome. I really enjoy your videos and I'm sure your channel will continue to grow throughout the new year!

[@RolfMeyer-cl7ou]

Thanks for all your great reactions. A tip. Look at Nightwish, The making of Yesterwynde. Grettings from northern Germany 🤘

[@kaNjiXIII]

Hey Rolf, thank you for being on this journey with me. :) I saw that they posted a video, but I think it's just the smaller making of videos made into a longer on, right? Because I already did a video of the making ofs. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2W0eIKEfq94nK8

[@tracyfarnath2270]

I really like this song, for some reason some of the riffs remind me of killing jokes pandemonium years old. Thank you for the reaction, enjoy the festive season🇬🇧

[@griesi31]

Also a great song, I call the song "Harry Potter score for metalheads" 😊

[@kaNjiXIII]

@@griesi31 Haha, that’s fitting. I had the Harry Potter feeling a few times. ☺️ Since Tuomas loves movie scores, it’s not that far fetched. 😁

[@BigzampanoXXL]

Danke für Deine Bemühungen. ich wünsche Dir alles Gute. Und bitte schau Dir auch die alten Konzerte an (für mich mit Floor). Wembley, Tampere, Buenas Aires, Hellfest, Pinkpop, etc. und Floor solo (ich bin leider völlig biased wegen Floor). Interessant auch Floors channel und floor mit after forever. und und und....DANKE jedenfalls.by the way: du könntest Lanternlight ein zweites Mal machen...für mich einer der besten songs meines Lebens.

[@RolfMeyer-cl7ou]

Yesterwynde ist das beste was Nightwish je geschrieben hat. Tuomas, Floor, Emppu, Kai, Jukka and Troy sind so gut wie nie. Nur schade, daß es nächstes Jahr nicht live gespielt wird(Nicht aufregen, meine Meinung). Gruss vom Dümmer See 🤘

[@BigzampanoXXL]

@@RolfMeyer-cl7ou Kollege Meyer, das sehe ich ähnlich, ich kann mich weniger entscheiden, was "das beste" ist. Mir gefallen auch die "alten" Songs (Gethsemane, etc - Floor Versionen) extrem gut, auch nachdem ich das sehr oft schon gehört habe. Bei Lanternlight liege ich sowieso komplett flach. Die Live-Versionen mit Floor sind häufig der pure Wahnsinn...Wie die manchmal auf dem Gas steht, ist kaum zu fassen. Und wenn ich ihr Lächeln sehe oder "thank you" höre - i am done.

[@PaulOutdoors]

Yes agree it's Floor every time for me. So many great live shows with Floor. For me Buenos Aires 2018 where Floor breathed new life in to a number of Nightwish classics that pre-date her time with the band is possibly my favourite if I had to pick one 🙏❤️👍😊

[@BigzampanoXXL]

@@PaulOutdoors i totally agree. I love the Buenas Aires 2018 or sacken show 2018.

[@budspanka2221]

What a nice way to finish up this album journey of yours :) very thoughtful insights and spot on with what you expected haha. It's a great experiment and awesome song, but as i said before for me it also falls in that 'nice short story' theme, where only oceans of strange islands stands out for me as being one of the 'big' songs. And i feel just from the concept, tuomas could have easily made this into another 15min epic if he wanted (but maybe he doesn't anymore? Last 2 records now without a 10+ minute epic...) Still a very interesting, refreshing, diverse album that only grows with listening more to it. Glad you shared your journey about this in a way that felt refreshingly real and honest without all the forced clickbaity crap, and i for once am extremely happy about that :) So thank you for staying true to yourself and have some wonderful christmas holidays!

i really enjoyed your reactions to the last Nightwish Album, thanks for that ! hope to see you doing music i like too ( like Lorna Shore heheh, you know Pain Remains ? )

[@kaNjiXIII]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Funny thing is, I know Will Ramos and what he's famous for, so I would not be surprised, but I never really listened to a song I think. xD

[@helli0n824]

@@kaNjiXIII so, you don´t know yet what you missed ... ;) i recommend "Pain Remains Trilogy" using their Musicvideos (without lyrics is only for hardcore fans) and a hard coded lyric down under it (for people not used to listen to Symphonical Darkend DeathCore music/vocals ). And i recommend to listen to it after you did all the other musicvideos they have done since "to the hellfire" ;) hope to see you soon losing your shXt when discovering Lorna Shore Will entered 2021 or 22 and shortly after this they put out the E.P. "...and i return to nothingness" which is also a name from a song. This song caught my off guard and completly sucked my into this band - hope you will like it too... most people starts with "to the hellfire" - as i first saw this in a reaction video i had to laugh at the end and thought NO THANKS, but pretty vocals dude! ...

[@helli0n824]

also, i never thought then DeathCore can make a grown man cry .. it did, and it does even today (Pain Remains Trilogy original Musicvideos)

Denke gute Erklärung zum Song, zusätzlich zu Deinen Gedanken und jenen von Tuomas: "The Weave" von Nightwish, veröffentlicht im September 2024, thematisiert die Zyklen des Lebens, die Verbindung von Vergangenheit und Gegenwart sowie den ständigen Wandel der Existenz. Der Song beginnt mit dem "ersten Schrei", der als "Sprache des Ungehörten" bezeichnet wird und die Unschuld und Emotionen neuer Anfänge symbolisiert. Die Erwähnung von "alten Geistern, die zu einer neuen Geburt tanzen", deutet darauf hin, dass vergangene Erfahrungen und Seelen in die Gegenwart einfließen und das Jetzt beeinflussen. Im Refrain wird die "Entflechtung" erwähnt, die darauf hindeutet, dass das Leben, ähnlich einem gewebten Stoff, auseinanderfällt und neu zusammengesetzt wird. Dies spiegelt die Idee wider, dass jedes Ende zu einem neuen Anfang führt und dass das Leben ein ständiger Prozess von Aufbau und Zerfall ist. Insgesamt lädt "The Weave" dazu ein, über die Komplexität und Schönheit des Lebens nachzudenken, in dem jede Erfahrung und jedes Individuum einen wichtigen Beitrag zum großen Ganzen leistet.

[@kaNjiXIII]

Das is eine tolle Analyse, danke fürs teilen. :) Hast du die geschrieben? Großartige Gedanken.

[@BigzampanoXXL]

@@kaNjiXIII nein leider bin ich nicht so gut. Das geht aber mit aktuellen KI Tools ganz gut. Grüße und alles Gute für 2025.

[@Thorgrim247]

This is a type of palindrome song.

[@kaNjiXIII]

True, that's the word for it, thank you for adding that.

[@duncanwyer2460]

Love how the second verse is the same as the first but in reverse ! Tuomas the master at work 😊

[@kaNjiXIII]

The whole song is built like this. :)

Hi...and sorry to put my comment as an answer to first comment in this line. Please read it from there. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Don't worry.
