@NicholasCorvin I wasn't thinking of chart's, just how big it was in Finland and how it was played on radio, you heard it every where...this was the song that made them famous.
@@NicholasCorvin Nemo reached the UK charts(Top 100), although only at the 87th position, but Amaranth was never there. From this point of view, the most successful is Wish I Had An Angel (no.60).
The background image seems to be Olavinlinna, a 550-year-old Finnish castle where opera has been performed for the last 100 years😮 I went to the castle yard in the summer -23 after Nightwish's hometown gig, but the castle was closed for some reason at 2 o'clock in the morning😅
Marco was announcing that "here's the guy who wrote this songs riffs. ,every single one of it". But he meant that Thomas wrote the whole song, with Marco's help I'd guess. Back then the 2 of them made majority of the songs of NW.
Marko says something about "Hi, here is this guy who wrote a song *** , the whole song , Mister Tuomas Holopainen. I can't figure it out what he says in the middle and I'm Finnish.
Same 😂 Had this song on some CD with latest hits that they were giving out when you buy a magazine, and I remember always skipping after guitar kicks in the intro. Some time later I saw a music video on tv, listened to entire song and fell in love with their music ever since.
You drop your reactions (and you do it every day too, bless you!) at around about noon here in Wales, which means I get to share lunch with you both daily all while having my musical soul fed too with your great music choices and your always positive, joyful and honest reactions. Thanks both, for spreading smiles around the planet daily!
Man you've been so awesome to us since day 1 Tony. We appreciate you being here every single day with us. You always have great info to share and insights which im sure everyone reading appreciates. Love you Brother 🍻
It was wine. Tuomas is a wine lover. He has a special rack for the wine bottle under the keyboard. Nightwish even have their own wine that is brewed in the USA.
During Imanigerium tour band had their signature Nightwish wine made in USA. You can see it in PLS learn the set list in 48hrs. That tells Floor joining in to the band. You should see it. Check it in 4 parts, it is where long. But we would love you to see it and we can fill in everything you might miss. There is a version with English subtitles.
Nemo is Latin for no one. So a typical Tuomas theme. Marko basically said give it up for the guy who gave us all these riffs(songs). The official video is absolutely gorgeous. MTV didn’t want to play it bc they didn’t think people would like a video shot in snow!
Thanks for sharing your entertaining reaction to a song about hope, faith, and the search for a better life. It is about a person who has been lost in life, lost in the darkness, and searching for a way out. P.S. "Nemo" is Latin for "nobody". Marco said "That's the guy who wrote this song - Mr. Tuomas Holopainen". P.S.S. Tuomas is a huge fan of Hans Zimmer, who has composed soundtracks for over 150 movies, including e.g. "Gladiator", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, "The Dark Knight" trilogy, "Inception", "Man of Steel", "Interstellar".
Love the war with the neighbor! This was the big hit song from "Once". The tour they were one for this show. Crank it up Gringa! 🤯🤯🤘🤘 Have you two checked out Kamelot yet?
Fantastic reaction. Nemo is one of their biggest hits and that iconic piano intro is so beaiiful and instantly recognizable. One of the songs where I like Tarja and Floor's performance equally. One of the songs where I actually like the offical music video the best, partly because it was the first time I heard the song plus the video is super cool as well. The song is a real tribute to Tuomas's songwriting because there are so many cool versions to see. In addition to the offical music video there is Floor singing this song at Wacken 2013 and the acoustic version that Floor sang with Troy on Planet Rock during the pandemic. My two favortie versions with Floor are the stripped own version she did in her 2021 solo concert from Amsterdam, th-cam.com/video/Uebh4TuP_Xg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=wHyQwYi3sICc-Sbl, and any of the live performances from the 2022 Human Nature tour. For the Human Nature tour she addeded a 15 second F5 belt that is just mind blowing. Here is a clip of the ending in Toronto, th-cam.com/video/9D9jdqEkxYo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=21--pP2_zOtOAABj, and the whole song live from Pinkpop, th-cam.com/video/wbbY8LXO0YU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=3Qo46O3za8DPzTAY. Much the same way she subverted expectations when she sang Shallow on Beste Zangers the live version from her 2021 solo concert has a completely different feel to it and so beautiful. You know it is a really well written song when it sounds so good when perfromed in so many different ways.
This is the original where it started in the music video(and their popularity), please listen to newer versions by Floor. The message byTuomas is the same now 20 years. It's a classic song, you can't deny it. Much love!
In this video, Emppu's guitar seems quite new as it is. On the enclosed videolink you can see Emppu getting a brand new ESP EV-1 guitar. th-cam.com/video/WfKnVCKNECI/w-d-xo.html To tilt the keyboard helps your wrists when playing while standing.
I was there two decades ago... Phantom, Ghost Love Score was at he same concert. But I still remember best Planet Hell and High Hopes (wondering what the...). Still the best has been concert in Tampere (From Wishes to Eternity) almost 25 years ago. That was fun from the beginning to the end - and after it. And thanks for your video.
This song is still Tarja's for me - not dissing Floor who does great with it (and does her signature "add a little extra at the end"), but here I prefer the original.
Nightwish is an unique band, every one of singers sounds different and so we have different styles of music 😊 I prefer Tarja's era, but i have my favourite songs with every one of singers. 🤘🤘🤘
Great reaction! I love this Tarja version. The more current versions of Nemo with Floor and Troy are worth a look, too. You'll see Troy playing a guitar with an e-bow during the later sections of the song and, well, you know Floor already. Thanks!
Thank you for occasionally reminiscing about Nightwish's mom, Tarja. I met this amazing band in 1999, just after they released their second album. To this day it's still my favorite band, and I'm just in love with Tarja's voice. This band is unique. In fact, powerfully sensual, dramatic, melodic music and heavy guitars don't always match Tarja's classical singing, but when put together these individual fragments turn into enchanting magic.
Marko said: Don't forget to give some wine to our gitarplayer Tuomas🤣😂😂. I am not a Finn so i don't know, but if nobody translate this than that is what i got from it
If you would like to checkout Tarja with a heavy song I suggest you look at Tarja 10 Crimson Deep (act 1) dvd2 . This is with her own band. Absolutely awesome as is a lot of her solo stuff.
When I saw Nightwish in 2012, Anette was the singer and they did a completely different arrangement of this song. It was obviously one to better suit Anette's voice, and that arrangement seems to have been dropped now that Floor's in the band, but it's a pretty arrangement.
For me this is my favorite Tarja performance. I guess there is also a reason they have never tried to play this song with Floor : 🎼 Nightwish - Swanheart - From Wishes To Eternity 🎶 Remastered HD 🎶 th-cam.com/video/0sc-VNppXhs/w-d-xo.html the ending when she sings together with Emppus guitar is just sooo great. So please check it out.
Hello to you two in Florida😊 Check also Tarja's cover of Mariah Carey´s song - All I Want For Christmas Is You. I literally hate this pre-Christmas commercial crap in the original version but Tarja has turned this mud into gold. In addition, you will also see her little daughter in the choir. I guarantee you won't believe your ears and you'll also be a little scared because this song is from Tarja's two-part edition "Dark Christmas"👍❤
Thank you!!!!! I ran to check that out immediately!!!! I am totally going to be playing every single one of her Christmas songs while I’m decorating the tree!!! You just started a new Christmas tradition!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
You know Tarja is the best. When she left NW, I stopped listening to them. But I have all the Nightwish CD's with Tarja on vocals. I got to see them live for the "Once" album tour. That was back before they got super famous.
Tuomas’s keyboars are a little bit awry, because then there aren’t angle the wrists with keyboards(wrists not go dead)😊. Tarja is lovely ❤ and you too😊
Great reaction!! Since we are coming into the holiday season please check out Tarja's version of "Frosty the snowman". It is quite different from all the other versions you have heard. She makes it dark and stunningly beautiful and she has her Daughter singing in the choir
Omg!!! I saw another comment about her version of All I Want for Christmas & now I plan on playing ALL her Christmas songs while I’m putting up the Christmas tree this year!!! I’m obsessed!! Lol!!
❤Tarja❤sou fã de Tarja(nightwish) desde o seu primeiro album...ouçam mais Tarja porque para mim nightwish é Tarja❤❤❤❤❤❤musicas como swantheart,walking in the air e muitas mais..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a stupid comment…🤦🏻♂️ You are just coming here to write this ridiculous nonsense… Tarja is in the thumbnail..🙄 Those insecure, Tarja hating, toxic Floor fanboys all the time… So boring and annoying.. No one is doing Tarja’s songs better than Tarja herself..
NEMO is such a great song. It lifts ya up and puts a smile on your face. This verssion with Tarja is kinda my go to for NEMO. Floor's version at the 2013 Wachen show is up there also but this version just R O C K S. If you haven't seen Marko sing the Pink Floyd tribute version of "High Hopes" at this same concert, need to do it. Covers and tributes aren't usually good ideas, they always seem so fall short - and why wouldn't they) - then there's Nightwish and Marko and suddenly, everything changes. This one will leave your chin on your chest.
Hi Guys - I heard this song out of my daughters bedroom in the early 2000s and was WOW. I have been a Nightwish fan ever since.
Nemo is the only song that I have seen both Tarja and Floor perform live. This will always be special for that reason. Both ladies are incredible!
❤Tarja❤Tarja❤to me only Tarja gives me a feeling ❤❤❤❤❤
Tarja is my first love..:.. Floor is my last…
