It's in the lyrics, "WE'RE the perfume of the timeless", a sweet scent released towards the future. We were for our parents, our kids are for us, our grandkids for them.
You got there in the end. We are the essence or the perfume of all who came before us. Their hopes, dreams, and sacrifices linger within us. Nightwish, I have found, are very much Humanists. To be inspired to talk about our past ancestors, speak of bring grateful & thankful, is likey all Tuomas wanted for his song. Hopefully we will be better human beings to each other for awhile after being inspired. Btw what you thought was a thong or suit is actually a Free Diving tool for both keeping your top from rolling with the pressures, and to hook hands/arms into when diving deep. 😊
Some probability calculations: Step 1. Probability of boy meeting girl: one in 20,000. Step 2. Probability of same boy knocking up same girl: one in 2000. Step 3. Probability of right sperm meeting right egg: one in 400 quadrillion. Step 4. Now lets assume that you have just those 12 generations of ancestors mentioned in the intro to this song. For the probability of every one of those 12 generations of your ancestors having reproduced successfully with right sperm having met the right egg is 400 quadrillion to the 12th power. Given these 4 steps, the probability of you being born you at the present moment is 20k x 2k x 400 quadrillion to the 13th power. Going backwards in time with even more generations of your ancestors, we soon reach a probability of 1 divided by the number of atoms in the entire universe. This makes each one of us a unique miracle.
@@carlsnow3970 Just like in chaos theory a butterfly flapping its wings in Africa can cause a storm in some other country, which supports your point of view about probabilities & those butterflies in this music video.
@@tarmotyyri6733 Thank you! I was angling toward the probability scenario. For example, what if your parents had an argument and slept apart instead of consummating at the time of your existence, would you even walk this earth? Kind of mind boggling of all the possibilities.
@@carlsnow3970 Precisely. Even the slightest & random event (the butterfly effect) in the long line of ones ancestors could lead to one not existing at all at the present moment.

Nightwish dont dissapoint "did you feel the ghost energy song" I listened to this song maybe 50 times by now, and it is one i like to listen to with my headphones or without, its really a good song, when i can do so to me. Some say Floors voice is low in the mix, and i can agree its hard to get all words she sing, but if you look at it soundwise it sounds amazing!! and after a listen or 2, you know most of lyrics, and its no problem at all, its done fully on purpose for the sound experince of it.. cant wait for rest of album!! Yesterwynde is the opening track on new album, i belive its only like a intro, its a little over 2 min long, #2 on album then is a almost 10 min song, thats proberly another epic!! #3 is where i think they bring in a heavy track, and this Perfume of the timeless is #5.. so i think its gonna be a good mix of heavy songs, Epics, and maybe a full balled.. Perfume of the timeless, well its almonst a ghost energy song right, telling all these ancestors is perfume around in a timeless world, being around you still, also a message that your existens matters!! i feel tuomas also put in a little message that mankind could do better still, Einstein turn to ape.. The title of the album is a word made by band member Troy Donockley, which Holopainen describes as the feeling of time, history, memory, and being connected to past generation, who have "all had their lives, their ups and downs, and they don't exist anymore, except as atoms scattered all over the universe. And we're going to be in that state pretty soon as well. So that should give you something to think about."

The thong is meant to keep the upper part and the pants together, it can also be used to fix your hands when diving.

The divers have been real, it has been three of them. No AI in this scenes.
The scene with the whale skeleton passing in front of the diver must be superimposed.

Ambergris,very expensive stuff from sperm-whales,used for making expensive parfums. So much in this song and video/lyrics to explore.😉🤘
If you like interesting music and genre combination, why not try some Middle Eastern metal?
Try some Orphaned Land!
Or, you hear Heilung .i mean, it fits perfect.
This album will not be presented live - sorry.
Well not until 2027 at least.
I can still see them performing this one or some others if they are popular along with whatever he has written next, once they do tour again. 😊
There is an anniversary coming up - I am hoping for a whopper of a special concert and maybe we will hear everything we want! We'll most. 😊
The main idea of the song or the album is that The origin of man is ape
Which I don't agree with because its atheist theory came from Charles Darwin book
The prevailing opinion has been for a very long time that humans and apes share a common ancestor, and thus humans did not evolve from apes.
The main idea of the song is that you came from many ancestors and the reflect of their lives, problems, decisions and loves.
