Like stated before in Weak Fantasy: Fear is a choice you embrace! Universe: not to spoil anything, but you can stop worrying ❣️ Tuomas said about this song: Floor at first is acting to be the preacher of fear, then the kids saying how things really should be and in the last chorus they join and that’s where the magic happens.
Tuomas is on such a different level than everyone else. I’ve said it before, he is a chess master in a world of checkers. His hidden meanings have hidden meanings.
First thing I did this morning after waking up was reacting to this song by watching your video. 😊 And it's only matching we have heavy thunderstorms going on right now. Love from northern Germany. ❤
Hi, I've always enjoyed your various reactions, but they've always been years old by the time I've found them. And now I see one just one hour old, so my day is now much happier than before :) Congrats on catching the reference to Y2K, (which is just after the reference to the 19th century analog, "HORSE WASTE WILL COVER LONDON!", which also became a nothingburger.) Hmm...
A bit of a new way to go for Nightwish, with the children choir, having as much singing time as Floor almost i belive, Floor is doing some fast phrasing here to, something like she does in the song Shoemaker, kind off i think. The Ill starred kids of your junkyard thats us humans right, People today are getting told all kind of doomsday things, AI and war will end the world, but this song says, the end is fear, its not near, armagedon aint coming tommrow, so life your life, hide the unshot guns doomsday predictors tell is gonna blast. Also notice that Floor joins the kids choir at end and connect that to her charecter she is in video, she realize something during video, Toumas said so in a interview i watched.. I didnt read the book 1984 written by George Orwell, but the song got reference to that book i belive. At first listen i needed another listen, at 3th listen the song got me, and i started like the children choir, i actually think its a pretty good song, and something not heard like this from NW before, now i listened to the song many times! This is not a Empuu shine song, there is heavy guitar rhytm in the middle section and end, but not the big Empuu solo, but i also think this song dosent need it, because the Children choir takes spotlight instead,.. The title the day off.. is missing telling what its the day off, so i think this is where you can put in the optimistic view of the song, as a listener, if you like to, and hear the song that way, the listener decide what its the day off. The original idea was this one to be 1st single, but then Tuomas decided it should be Perfume of the timelees, and this 2nd.
Thanks, love you're reaction. This song is one of my favorites, so many good small sounds from Nightwish early days, Emppus good old quitar riffs, we heard back then. Floor is an amazing storyteller. They are falling out of the fear matrix that we are trapped in ..so good.
Glad you guys arent haters The community sucks but I cant wait to see them biting their tongues after the full release.The reviews are great and promising.
It’s about the fear mongers of all times trying to manipulate the people to do what they want. In the thirty years I teach there are always pupils asking me if there’s going to be a war or if the world will end. I’ve always assured them it will get by, but it hit me every time to see their fear. So this song is wonderful to enlighten them they are being manipulated.
I see you viewed my comment guys i was also wondering its been almost 4 months now since i sent you my suggestion for nightwishs sister band Wintersun for Wintersun sons of winter and stars 1.5 official lyric video. If you have a date that you will react to then i can notify the Wintersun TH-cam fan community so they know when to watch your reaction mike and ginger which you let me know my suggestion is one your list. And we had a hurricane here in my town of texas and i was a volunteer for the hurricane survivors that lost thier homes which we are big Wintersun fans and we would love to watch with you together this beautiful emotional masterpiece of symphonic music. Much love Wintersun Alex in Texas ❄️❤️
Phenomenal song, love Floors rather deep voice here, it supports the meaning of the lyrics so well. Also the levels of reverb and delay on her voice is near to not present. Also, did you realize, that this song is mostly just drums and bass, supported with more sound effects than keys. Very well mixed / mastered and produced! Only Nightwish can deliver such an full-sounding (mostly drum & bass) song. Hard to find one that comes at least near to this. One negative side effect: You need a really good sound reproduction system to catch all of the very deep bass and vocals in full glory. Nothing for the mobile-with-cheap-earpod-generation ;-) Side note: Something went wrong with the sound of this first upload. Nightwish corrected it afterwards in their official video.
Hey guys you know if you didn't do any music reactions I just enjoy mikes dry wit and just looking at gingers gorgeous red haired beauty. I do have a weakness for redheads . Wintersun Alex in Texas ❄️❤️
Everyone should have the right to show their face... including Afghan girls... Nightwish - The Eyes of Sharbat Gula th-cam.com/video/hvbSWXi6hgA/w-d-xo.html
The band members! Flaky pastry. The fear mongering by the media, "Y2K", a new virus, Astronomers warning. "In this grave new world of '84", [Brave New World & 1984]. "Nightmare cavalcade for the sandman", DC Comics, Metallica! "It's there, but yours is an empty sermon" Yours is an empty hope. "The end is fear" "The beginning..."
Thank you, again. About lyrics, all those things armageddon, second coming etc. are wrote by man. Those stories are not true, only stories. Live your life and enjoy, do not affraid things what does not exist. I found that "message" in this song.
If you like this song and the direction that Nightwish has taken since Human Nature good for you and God bless. I don’t. I hated Human Nature. It was the worst album of their career and yes I’ve heard all of them. This song could have easily been on that album as a leftover. The first thing I miss in this song (and most of Human Nature) is Emmpu. Did he have the day off? Did anyone bother to check if his guitar was plugged in? Nightwish seems to have forgotten they are a Hard Rock/Power Metal band and a guitar is essential. Second thought is boy is Marko Hietala missed. Imagine his voice teamed with Floor again. I miss the Endless Forms Most Beautiful Nightwish. This effort is pale in comparison. Sad!
I don’t know Nightwish doesn’t do it for me much like they used to Something changed since Marko left other than the obvious. Maybe I’ve been too spoiled also by others in this genre that are so heavy and good and complex like Therion and Xandria and especially Epica.
I love Epica, Nightwish, Within Temptation. Love how each one evolved. These three are so different then when they started. I love and respect that. It is like I look at myself continuously chancing due to life experiences etc. It is they are growing and I'm growing alongside with them with my own life.
As much as I loved "perfume Of The Timeless" - both musically and visually - I was jazzed to see another release. Wow...what a letdown. I give it 2.5 stars out of 10. Sorry.
i love the 80s style beat at the start, and floor sounds good but ill be honest i don't like the choir it takes me out the song completely, and the song has decent build up that doesnt go anywhere, i really wish the kid choir was not there and we can more powerful parts of floor, the whole song has this build up to nothing..
In the past, both Marko and Floor had some input in the final phase. With Marko gone and Floor otherwise occupied, this is what you get when the "Metal Mozart" is left to his own devices.
Didn't fall for it (or the other one), cuz this is just plain boring. Fortunately, Floor has started pushing back a bit (read her Aug/Sept Aardschok interview about missing Marko, overusing a mediocre vocalist like Troy and the touring hiatus). Hope she leaves the Metal Mozart to his devices after their 30th anniversary.
Floor not gonna leave Nightwish ,she like new album,for many of you who do not understand Nightwish evolved, so you just have 2 choices,one accept new style of Nightwish or just liesten old staff
@@petriluntinen1179 Whether I properly understood the message? Of course not! For if I did, I'd be singing the praises of Tuomas' genius with the rest of you lot ;) Perhaps - as a non-native speaker - I simply don't understand the supposedly "deep" lyrics. Another possibility is that I lack proper education, uncought microbiologist that I am. Dunno man. Finns though, are known for their superb mastery of English, right? So any help would be appreciated. But seriously, the message / theme / or whatever one may call it has been more or less the same for three albums in a row. Needless to say that I'm pretty bored by now (the quotes, the "clever" references, the recycling of subject matter, the highfalutin name dropping etc..: all inherently derivative and symptomatic of a songwriter who has run out of og ideas). So much for that "limitless chest of tales" eh? My main criticism isn't abt the lyrics though. I'll never consult any band or self-righteous rockstar for some kind of message. That's what actual poetry & books are for. No, it's the generic sounding, toothless pseudo-prog that I find underwhelming. That and the utter waste of a once in a lifetime vocal giant like Floor Jansen. Dutchie out /rant

First thing I did this morning after waking up was reacting to this song by watching your video. 😊 And it's only matching we have heavy thunderstorms going on right now. Love from northern Germany. ❤
Hard stuff from Nightwish; a song that I have to listen to 3 - 4 times to be able to enjoy it.

Agreed. Plus I find Floor's voice on most studio versions too far back in the Mix.
yep i think it sounds over produced. Crossed fingers!
Please give your reaction to Vanny Vabiola's new official music video "As Patient Like I Do".
I don’t know Nightwish doesn’t do it for me much like they used to Something changed since Marko left other than the obvious. Maybe I’ve been too spoiled also by others in this genre that are so heavy and good and complex like Therion and Xandria and especially Epica.
I think I have to agree, after all, it took Marko joining the band for them to sound good so him leaving the band has similar effect in a negative way
You're both talking utter nonsense.
Chris Page, I concur 😊😊🙏🙏🤘🤘
@@ChrisPage68 just allow flowing opinion, it's ok, it's subjectivity
I love Epica, Nightwish, Within Temptation.
Love how each one evolved.

My thoughts exactly. I hate child choir's and tbh, the songs quite poor, maybe the worst I've heard from them
In the past, both Marko and Floor had some input in the final phase. With Marko gone and Floor otherwise occupied, this is what you get when the "Metal Mozart" is left to his own devices.
