    They actually tried to get David Attenborough to do a voiceover on the latest album. He apologized but he was too busy at the time, so they got the actress Geraldine James instead (and she did it beautifully)
    If you want to really hear what Tuomas can do you should check out disc 2 of the latest album. He doesn't write songs, he composes masterpieces.

      @@BritPopsReact There is an extremely good fan made video for the whole of disc 2 (All The Works Of Nature Which Adorn The World). It's so good they play it in the Nightwish museum, so I guess that makes it an official video !
      31 minutes of Tuomas taking you on wild ride through nature, using orchestra, choirs, and a slight sprinkling of Floor & Troy. It's stunningly beautiful.

      @@BritPopsReact As noted by others here is the link to the Fan made video.
      Nightwish is very conscious of Nature, both it's beauty and fragility, as well as our impact on it,
      particularly in their most recent albums.
      Tuomas has created this long orchestral work in the last Nightwish Human::Nature album called:
      All the Works of Nature that Adorn the World.
      ruclips.net/video/RnOdQ5WNZJk/видео.html
      The video is 30+ min of beauty and gorgeous music in multiple parts in a fan created video, ending with Ad Astra.
      It is absolutely Beautiful visually and musically, and just so zen.
      Tuomas created music for Orchestra and choir vocals with some contributions from Troy and Floor. No lyrics, just music.
      This fan made video is approved by Nightwish, and edited to perfection to match the musical mood in each part ( titled sections) of the piece. Nightwish did release their own video for the last part called Ad Astra which is also good to view.
      Ad Astra is being used to close each concert on the current tour.

    Songs like this make me want to look into Tuomas's brain, you know it is vastly different from the rest of us! He is a compositional genius, and to live in the times of his work is so flipping cool. And of course, YUMMY Marko, can't go wrong. I am so proud of you, B1, for being a good grump and sitting still like you did. This was a great reaction, as always, you 2 Brits are the best! Um, Floor's arms?!?! To be young and beautiful.....

    There are so many “hidden gems” that Tuomas included in the lyrics & the music. You will hear about them all!
    The musical tributes you mentioned
    start with some African tribal drumming, then through the Gregorian chant in Dies Irae (Mozart), Bach’s Minuet in G Major followed by his famous Fugue in D Minor, followed by American banjo music, Metallica’s Enter Sandman riff (!!!), finally ending in Rap/Hip-Hop and 90s dance music.

      Her previous projects had maybe 5 or 6 good songs. The remainder were nothing special. That’s just the reality of it.
      And her individual performances have also been some great gems. What I just love about her, is that although being a greater singer, she remains a wonderful human being.

    The magnificence of this song can hardly be described in words. 'Epic' seems to me still very far understated. Tuomas can only be called a musical genius, and the musicians he has around him are perfect for converting his ideas into sound and voice. And also the team for the visual realization deserves proper respect in my opinion. A masterpiece in every aspect.

    Hi guys, nice reaction to this amazing song or should I say masterpiece of music. This is so great to watch and listen. It has so many layers, changes and tons of details. They have put lots of effort to make everything work perfectly. Every detail has been thought at least twice I would say. That quality on a live concert. You mentioned at first you really didn't know which direction it will take you next. That's very clever composing by Tuomas. He knows how to captivate us to listen these songs till the end. Earlier on the comments it was mentioned about Floor's parents participating that concert. I enclose here a video link about Floor's classreunion. There is an interview at Tampere stadium just day before this concert, her parents are on this video too. This video gives us beautiful glimpse of Floor's personality as a person.

    Nothing before the Big Bang friends.
    The song starts about 9 billion years after the Big Bang... 4 billion years ago, with the Late Heavy Bombardment, where the inner planets were bombarded by huge asteroids (and Earth was also hit by Thea, a Mars sized planet that entered into Earth but a chunck of both of expelled in molten form to create the Moon).
    The late heavy bombardment seeded Earth with the elements needed for life.

    Thankx guys really enjoyed watching this with you, something been waiting for. Tuomas truly is an amazing songwriter/ composer. When the albun EFMB came out in 2015 and this song came on youtube, no liveshows yet, I always remember someone commenting 'they will never do this live" I hope that guy has seen this video :) now....you have to check out the new album 2nd cd from Human Nature, the Nature album and listen to Tuomas new music and you will hear something completely different and beautiful. It's as long as this song about 30 min. Worth listening too.

    Being at that concert must have been an elevation. I can only imagine how that must have felt in that audience.
    This...at the END of a 2-1/2+ hour show!!?!? Are you kidding me?!?!
    Floor goes from human Therimin to primeval ancestor to emotionless creation entity....I mean, how much more can one say about her magnificence? When she does her deadpan, straight part it reminds me of HAL from 2001 a Space Odyssey, creepy but comforting at teh same time. Man, you think her parents were proud after this show? And at the end of this , she's belting out D5's (after nearly 3 hours) like nothing and asking the crowd to sing along? I bet there were a lot of very hoarse Finns at work the next day.
    The rest of the band are so locked in, they make the most difficult concepts seem effortless and easy. It's simply insane how good these musicians are. I have to say, in this one in particular Kai beats those drums like they owe a guy named Vinny a LOT of money. And yes BP2, Empuu was playing the opening riff to Sandman by Metallica ;-) I could see it in your confused look. They actually played a series of music from many composers up to that point in that section, but it goes by a lot of folks.
    Thanks guy, much appreciated.

    Everyone speaks of Big 3, but for me there is "only" Big 5: Ghost Love Score, Greatest Show on Earth, Poet and the Pendulum, Shoemaker, Dead Boy's Poem (in any order).
    Those are Nightwish's undisputable masterpieces. Luckily, the quality doesn't drop because "core" Tuomas (excellent comment) is just that good.
    As you rightly noticed, Tuomas had a huge role here (other than making it :)), he worked overtime on those keyboards and had to be superfocused. He even made small mistakes, but that just shows it was live.
    You'll enjoy watching the Wembley version because they use several different instruments, interesting ending, subtitles and Troy is more featured.

    Only an Mention from an not in any way to be known NW Fan : Surely its an top Point what Audience thinks and get from your Vids. On the other Side, that Piece of Music(Art?) can give you so much more like an analytic Playground and Views. I suggest enjoy it Alone, or with an dear One, and if it works out to touch You, let it do its Magic. After that, any vocal/ music/ text/ dawkins Analysation online screened is fine, for me it wasnt interesting any more after Hear/Seeing it on 47 inch with good Headphones as Blue Ray. The Combination of all Ppl and their Talents, Passion involved, from the catering Guys, Stage Rigger to the Soundengineer and Pyrotech, ofc all Visual present Artist, they did an absolute unique Event 2 Times for us out there.

    This is a great show! No doubts. I love both live versions of it.
    IF you are concerned about keyboards, maybe you should check Ayreon. If you are concerned about smart music, you should check Ayreon. (Or Star One, which belongs to the same guy.)
    Maybe starting for the official videos of "The day that the world breaks down" or "Lost children of the universe". Or, as I did, for some live version: The age of shadows, The eye of Ra, Twisted Coil, The garden of emotions, Isis and Osiris, among many, many others.
    Cheers!

    Actually 4.6bn years is the age of the solar system, which is where we start.
    The big bang was about 14bn years.
    The song is based on Richard Dawkins book of the same name.
    The spoken part during the bows is a quote from the book and the final speech over the credits is from Darwin.
    The title of the album is based on that phrase from Dawkins and all the spoken pieces are read by Dawkins.
    In the Wembley version, Dawkins appears on stage in person to do the readings.

    Fun facts;
    One new crab species (Tanidromites nightwishorum) was named after Nightwish in honor in particular for the 2015 album “Endless Forms Most Beautiful” about the evolution of life.
    Conservation biologist Jukka Salmela of Metsähallitus Parks & Wildlife Finland recently discovered a new insect species in his home country and while remembering Tuomas Holopainen‘s love for nature, he decided to name it “Sciophila holopaineni” after NIGHTWISH‘s keyboarder and songwriter.
    After the release of the band’s latest album “Endless Forms Most Beautiful” in 2015, Holopainen has been known as person being highly interested in evolution and the diversity of nature.
    In 2018, a new species of beetle was discovered by scientist Andreas Weigel. It was named after Floor Jansen, dubbing it Tmesisternus floorjanseni. This makes Floor Jansen the second Nightwish member to be a namesake for a newly discovered species.

      Not only but also; an unknown brittle star species that lived in the Cretaceous era is named after Floor Jansen - Ophiomitrella Floorae and the Alpenglow Rockshelter - a prehistoric rock-shelter discovered in Pennsylvania, USA and located just a few hundred meters from the Council Rocks archaeoastronomy (Stonehenge-type) site dating to at least 1825 BC - 4000 years before present.
