    I've been listening to Nightwish since I was 7 years old. I'm 27 now. Together with their music, I experienced the end of school, university, the pandemic, and the deaths of some of my family members. There were good events too, and also along with their music. All I can say is that Tuomas' music, Nightwish, is what supports me at any time. I am so happy to live at the same time with them.

      When I think back to when I was 7 years old, I'm not so sure. I didn't know "Semi-Charmed" by Third Eye Blind was about drugs until I listened to it again as an adult, but that never stopped me from rocking out to the song. I feel that there is far, far more to Nightwish than how deeply you can understand the lyrics.

      Want to be even more mindblown ? Tuomas says this song's lyrics has several meanings, the main one being a representation of life as an Ocean and the islands being the people you meet... But people have also theorized that another meaning might be Tuomas' own life with Nightwish and current and previous band members. Like "the retiree" who could be Marko. And if that's true, it would mean the musical influences from all the eras of the band could be extremely deliberate

    • @The.Doctor.6149

      It’s very similar to many Nightwish songs in that respect. It’s hardly anything new though, in fact, it’s very mid-late 2000 in its technical predictability. Tuomas has developed a dark side to his bitterness over the filmscore he’ll never be asked to write, even turning on his own inspiration Hans Zimmer in his criticism - wow Tuomas, you’re not in the same league for the very reasons you decided to twice rebuke his invitation backstage. Seriously, twice? Why twice? Like sending a message without ever being man enough to deliver it in person heh Tuomas? Hans remains clueless btw, maybe a third snub is needed?

      With The Poet and the Pendulum brought into context, I see the dots you connect but also offer this for consideration: An Ocean of Strange Islands is more a sequel, or perhaps even an addendum to TPATP. The ending of TPATP implies the mother figure at the song's end is directing the character (Tuomas, if we're being literal) to "find his shore," as he has "such oceans within." Hence the common core themes of discovery by looking into the past and toward the future. TPATP is surviving s*icide in a song, evidenced by the live performances where Tuomas essentially pantomimes beheading himself with the sound effect of the pendulum swinging. This song, and subsequent albums since Endless Forms Most Beautiful really feel as though Tuomas, the author and narrator of the Nightwish's music and universe, has discovered a beauty in living that many post-s*icidal people tend to land on, myself included. It's essentially saying "Fine. Since I'm forced to live as I was forced to be born, then I will see beauty in this world even if I have to create it myself." Or perhaps that's just a reach. Frankly, I could write whole essays on Tuomas's lyrics as if they were a literary classic in the broad academic sense lol.

    What a masterpiece!!!
    There are no words that can adequately express the emotional impact of this song...
    The interpretations one can make are numerous...For me, we are all wayfarers of our own ship...buffeted and tossed on the sea that is life..The butterflies, in particular, are symbolic of transformation and renewal...bueaty that is short lived..Take the helm of your own ship...even when lost, your inner compass will always lead you home...
    What is left to say? THANKYOU NIGHTWISH...❤❤❤❤❤
