the fun part is not only its dawkins on the prologue... he did do it live attending the performances on 2 occasions ;)
If you like Dawkins then you'll love Greatest Show on Earth.
He might have to deviate from the norm and do the Wembley show rather than Tampere.
ohh I say Tampere is the way to go here. They put so much more into it since it was their anniversary show.
@@ez0950 Ordinarily I would agree, but his love for Richard Dawkins tells me he'll get a little more out of Wembley. If he watches Tampere that is cool, I just hope he get's to see wembley at some point too even if only for himself.
@@EnigmaTimGaming Please, do Wembley version indeed! He's up for a surprice :D
Tuomas is a big fan of Richard Dawkins also. Tuomas's lyrics are poetic. That is how he writes. I am so glad you are enjoying listening to Nightwish. I just discovered them about 4 yrs ago. Yes you do need to go to a concert. They are unbelievable live. I saw them for the first time a year ago. They did a compilation of Nightwish's songs over the years. It was fantastic. Tuomas started writing for the new album while on tour. He said it should be out in the spring of 2020. Then they will go on a world tour. The great thing about Nightwish is that they perform in all sizes of venues. Tuomas believes that fans should get the opportunity to see them. I encourage you that if they are any where near you really make the effort to see them. It was one of my greatest experiences................ :-)
I recommend that too, but being from Finland myself it was so much easier in their early years to see them in every year festivals, now they only mostly do gigs, so it's harder and they are much more famous so need to be quick for the tickets :P
Richard Dawkins actually collaborated with Nightwish songwriter Tuomas Holopainen (keyboard) on this album (endless forms most beautiful) u really should watch their song Greatest show on Earth from Tampere same gig as this one, it's about evolution and it's really a masterpiece. And Dawkins is in this one also.
Dawkins is even with them on stage when they performed TGSOE at Wembley Arena in 2016.
@@tarmotyyri6733 i know i just like the Tampere show more all in all, but yeah it's pretty awesome when he comes on stage in Wembley.
@@S.d.Glokta I do too, with fireworks and Floor's parents in the audience.
This song is off their newest album Endless Forms Most Beautiful. Richard Dawkins did a lot of narriation on it and he even did his speaking parts at their Wembley show I believe.
I'm totally jealous of Floors windmills too, for the very same reason.
Yes, Dawkins was with them on stage at Wembley Arena in 2016.
You said it,its professor Dawkins himself👍😊
I agree with you 100%,belive in any god you will,but dont rubb it in my face😊🙏
Next one gotta be The Greatest show on earth live Tampere 👍🇸🇪
Discovered this group about a year ago. It has became my favorite by far. Saw them in concert in California about 9 months ago I guess now (they are not very big in USA yet so only about 3000 people in the building which was awesome). My son (18 years old) came as well. He didn't know much about Nightwish. Halfway through first song I looked at him and asked how he liked it so far. He had this strange look on his face and said "This is fuc#^!*# awesome. The singer is off the hook"...lol
I need to see them live. I've gone way past the point of "want to see them" now. 😂😂
Thanks for reacting to this song. The new songs are really growing on me. Please react to Yours is an empty hope, the poet and the pendulum or romanticide or master Passion greed. All great.
It was me - the best investment I have ever made - thanks. Glad you like them. They won't be touring until 2020 as they are now working on their next album to be released this year if all goes as planned.
P.S. I have created a public Nightwish playlist with almost 150 items including official music videos, live performances, interviews and complete albums and concert videos in case anyone is interested.
Time for Poet and the Pendulum and Greatest Show On Earth...two of Nightwish's masterpieces
You should watch The Greatest Show on Earth by Nightwish. The Wembley performance has Richard Dawkins joining them on stage. And yes the song is named after his book with the same name.
I prefer the Tampere version even though it is so awesome that Dawkins joined them on stage at Wembley.
@@pmasher I fully agree with you. But I thought Richard Dawkins being there might swing his decision to do a reaction 😉😉
If you're hoping to see them live, you may have a chance next year. They are currently rehearsing/recording a new album for release next year and they always embark on a huge World Tour to promote it!!
BOOM!!! loved your post talk! Agree 100
I had the pleasure of seeing them live during the Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour. You are right, this is epic! :-)
I've got tickets for a concert in november this year, too. Can't wait for it!
Marco is very much into Celtic music which shows up in many songs!! It's great!! 🤘
Masterpiece. Those lyrics 🔥❤️🤘🙏🏻🇫🇮
Wait when you see "The Greatest show on Earth" live in Tampere, Finland (same show)... Pure art!.. Mine and composor Tuomas's (keyboards) "desert island song"
if the rumor mill is to believed, nightwish is going back into the studio to record a new album sometime in the middle of this year, which means if you're lucky there's gonna be a tour in the next year or so! if you're really enjoying the band, DEFINITELY go see them live. i got to see them during their Decades tour last year and hands down it was one of the most magical experiences of my life. granted i've been a die-hard fan for over a decade, but they put on an incredible show and the crowd is always SO energetic and into it.
That instrument Markus Is playing is really cool looking; two kinds of guitars in one, it seems. i'm not an instrument player, but just by looking I guess its quite a bit heavier than a normal 'electric'.
Totally agree!
Troy is English and plays several instruments including Irish bagpipes and the flute. They recorded this album in England.
I'm so glad I live in northern Europe, religion is not a in a big role here. It's one of the many reasons I wouldn't want to live in the US. I love Dawkins as well, he has such a soothing voice 😁
They are working on a new album atm and hopefully that'll be out sometime next year, with a world tour to follow.. so keep your eyes open!
I have loved them for well over 15 years and finally got to see them live last year, it was an amazing experience and I can't wait to do it again, this time with VIP! :)
You seem to have healthy approach to this theme/topic, kudos to you. I feel like this song is mostly critisicm against organized religion, not necessarly against beliefs of the invidual person. Tuomas (songwriter) also said some interview that he is mostly agnostic himself. But the whole album is intresting! Mostly is focus on science, and joyful things in life. And if you are into Dawkins, you find the lyrics very rewarding for sure! The Greatest Show on Earth is over 20-minute monster, but the liveshow (also from Tampere) is really something else too.
The album this is from is a concept album and well, you already figured out the theme :P
"Good to hear other people's perspective".
You got a glimpse of their newest drummer, Kai, who has also played for Wintersun, and I don't think I've ever repeated a suggestion, but I think you would enjoy anything from their live Sonic Pump Studios session, especially 'Sons'. Master level stuff.
Well done, mate!
Good stuff, as ever. I applaud.
You're not the only one who wants to see them live! \m/
Good for you sir, most people lack the mettle to even glance over the uncomfortable subjects. I too learned to accept reason over fear and respect that you handled things diplomatically. Balanced reaction and evaluation of the dangers as well. Fine job sir.
We the same problem with the windmill, besides my neck wouldn't take it, I'm a little to old.
Seeing them live is as good as you think it will be. Well worth it.
You mentioned several times wanting to see them live. I've seen them in Charlotte, NC in a small venue called The Fillmore. IMO, they need to be seen in a large venue. Criminally, they're not well-known enough HERE to get them into an arena. I've already set aside the PTO and money for a trip to Finland when they have their next show there. I'm hoping to get a group together to meet up there or even travel together. Finland is home to 4/6 of the band so it's their "home" show.
Yes, that was Richard Dawkins. Their last album Endles Forms Most Beautiful was inspired by his work and he is on that album in several songs.
The song from that album you should definitely react here some day is The Greatest Show on Earth - live at Tampare 2015 is the absolutely best version.
But if you like Dawkins, you should also do Wembley version or at least ending of that song at least for yourself if you don't want to do two reactions of one song. He was with them on the stage for his final lines. Atmosphere of that exact moment was really something you will never see on any other metal concert.
Well - if you do here both versions, I belive nobody will have problem with that :)
New subscriber, long time fan and follower of Nightwish! They are PHENOMENAL!!! This song in particular brought me to your channel...
I'll have check out the rest of your Nightwish reactions!!! 👍👊🤘
Nice reaction. Nightwish is my favorite band. Have a look at bands like Epica (symphonic metal) and Eluveitie (folk metal)
Epica - Cry for the moon
Epica - The phantom agony
Epica - Consign to oblivion
Eluveitie - A rose for epona
Eluveitie - Epona
Eluveitie - The call of the mountains
Eluveitie - Rebirth
Eluveitie - King
They probably won't start touring until the next album is done. So I don't expect Nightwish to be anywhere until late 2020 early 2021 unfortunately.
Christian here, still absolutely love Nightwish
Great Reaction Again 🤘
Floor is a fantastic front-person in every way, one of which is in her ability to interpret the written song. But in Nightwish, Tuomas does almost all of the songwriting, both musically and lyrically. Enjoy this Nightwish experience!
Tuomas read Dawkins book wrote most if not all songs for first album with Floor based on the book. Dawkins heard this and become friends of the band and did the narrations for this record and tour.
Great reaction. Subscribed and dinged.
React to Nightwish - The Greatest Show On Earth (Live Tampere) its their most epic song about evolution and life (more dawkins there also)
Greatest show on earth (live at Tampere) and Poet and the Pendulum (live at wembley) should be next. Both have very strong messages written beautifully as theatrical stories. Long ones, both, but absolutely worth your time.
Many atheists may find my view as a Christian on this song surprising, but I hear much in this song that appeals to my basic beliefs as well...I think this song is appealing to critical thinkers. Don't just "believe" because you're told or raised that way. Believe it or not, this Christian gives you props and agrees with your basic position and views. I'm a "live and let live" kind of guy as well. My beliefs are mine and mine alone, as are yours. I just wish so many more on both sides of the spectrum were as well. Peace brother.
I would recommend you try everything to see them. They are awesome live.
Have to say, I have seen them live. They came to Denver in April of 2018. I have never enjoyed a concert more, besides Metallica. The two are an incredibly close tie for my favorite. Definitely worth the money to see them.
Came for the Nightwish. Liked for the intelligent and enjoyable reaction. Subbed for your ability to address a sensitive subject thoughtfully and openly. Keep up the good work! Try "Song of Myself", "Ghost River" and "Ever Dream" from the Wacken 2013 show.
With Floor Nightwish are now the most complete band going
Even better Live so you must go and experience it yourself.
Very well worded reaction, some of your comments hit the sweet spot that most avoid and have not addressed for thousands of years :)
You will love Nightwish - Stargazers Live in Tampere (the same concert of the vídeo).
Great reaction bud, can't wait to see NightWish as well 🤘
I grew up Southern Baptist, too. I ended up on the same path as you.
Epica is another symphonic metal band with interesting lyrics regarding religion especially the album "the divine conspiracy". Songs like fools of damnation, cry for the moon or living a lie for instance.
Great reaction! I recommend checking out Within Temptation - Our Solemn Hour (live), another awesome symphonic metal band!
Jinjer, atheist, Richard Dawkins, NightWish, - anything else we got in common? Have a great weekend dude.
Liked your vid because of your comments. I believe no filter is the best belief.
I think you might be the only NW-reactor, who says anything about (organized) religion in here, although thats clearly the topic , thx for that. Greetings from Finland!
Thanx!! I couldn't agree more of your wayn in seeing religion. And yeah. A great band and extremly tallented musicions:)
Great reaction. Nice points at the end.
You DO need to see them live. I've seen them 3 times. They are every bit as good live as you'd imagine them to be. Travel if you have to, it is unlike any other live event you'll likely ever see. Oh, and also check out Sabaton.
Great reaction - again - and wise words about religion(s) and tolerance.
That style is whats new with Nightwish 😁 nature and science 😊🐵 Toumas is very into that and it reflects in his music. You need to give him more shoutout for the music considering he is the one composing everything. Next song should be the poet and the pendulum live at wembley. But if you do you should do a background check on what that song is about. Promise you that will make that ride alot more emotional and massive. If you dont want to check yourself then tell med and ill do a fast story about it here in the comments😁 love your reaction 👍
a very rare appearance by Troy Dockery
It is clear that you once will do TGSOE: In The Greatest Show On Earth at Wembley at the end Richard Dawkins shows up himself for the last frases. That is very cool. Most people will suggest you to do the Tampere version, because of the outside experience and all, but the Wembley one bring me a bit more into the meaning of the 'song' and gives a bit more view on the background screens too. So I suggest you do them both ;-)
Dude you rock !!! 😜
You could try a beard windmill
Well done traversing the religious minefield, this song tiptoed. :)
You should check out Wintersun. Kai Hato took over drumming from Jukka because he had insomnia and Jukka asked his best friend Kai to fill in 😎 Yes Floor Jansen wanted to be a Biologist when she was little 👀
you'll have to wait until 2020 to see them live
Nightwish is such a great band.
You don't need hair to be a headbanger!
just Check out Pantera's Phil Anselmo @ Pantera - Domination - Live in Moscow...and then swing on over to Gojira - Shooting Star...for something a little different.
Yes, Richard Dawkins. You should listen to Ghost Love Score from this concert.
I did 😁
If you haven’t already check out a Swedish band called Avatar. I think you’ll like them.
Tuomas the keyboardist writes the lyrics and 95 percent of the music...
Before there was Metal of any kind, before even Sabbath or Led Zeppelin, there was this. Nightwish are in several ways part of this lineage: ruclips.net/video/qlL0NtRbU88/видео.html
Wow. Yeah, if you grew up going to Southern Baptists, I think that's enough to put a lot of people off. I'm very spiritual myself. Religion no - I see religion as being about money, power and control. If it's somebody's path to be religious though, that's ok. Live and let live. I don't like it when religion becomes abusive. I was raised a Christian (Anglican), then went through militant atheism and then pulled it back slightly to go with a spiritual belief in some sort of collective consciousness. There's some awesome research going on at the University of Arizona about that, and in other place regarding quantum physics, which is probably going to lead in the future to understanding more about consciousness, other dimensions, dark matter etc. It'll be really cool and hella crazy at the same time, I suspect. Oh, and I believe prayer works. Not in the sense of a magical entity granting wishes, but prayer can help people psychologically and obviously has some sort of genuine effect on the brain. I know atheists who pray and it works for them. You create your own reality, to a degree.
Faith's a personal thing. Everybody should develop some kind of comprehension about how things work. Religion is always about power, due to it's nature of being a group thing. I saw the light over decades ago by stopping believing in any gods. Your parents are your Gods, 'cause they can make you believe in anything, but with that power given to them in your birth, they can also be real Satans by their actions. Only thing you can control, with the variable power, are your own actions. So, let us all take care our kids.
Oh, this is really great performance of a awesome song. Marco, on bass, is also very talented singer with outstanding voice!
So, in a snap this went from a music channel to a religion and philosophy channel. Nice! First off, I appreciate your level-headed honesty on the topic at hand. I'll do the same.
Objectively, the quality of the song is first rate. That is consistently true with Nightwish and Floor. Topically, I didn't like it at all, because it's just more of the same things that I've heard many times before, the common criticisms of religion in general, and Christianity in particular. This one is especially cynical and snide. But, freedom of speech and and belief for everyone, I say.
As a Christian, I also grew up Southern Baptist, and have some issues with certain things generally held by that denomination, which is why I am no longer part of it. But no denomination is "the religion" itself, and I had to learn that over time. It's an interpretation of the actual religion which, in the case of Christianity is to "do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God". In a nutshell, that's it.
I think every ideology, religion, or belief should be put up to full and honest scrutiny, and it either stands on its own merits, or it falls apart. But typically, complaints against the religion often prove (as I've seen over time) to be based on bad teachings, bad behavior by it's followers (and hurts suffered from them), or on misunderstandings. I've suffered based on those things myself, and I don't minimize or make light of them. But thankfully, over time I've grown passed them. Other criticisms are based simply on human pride. I cannot get on board with the message of this song, or the Greatest Show on Earth (or of Dawkins himself), and so I can't fully enjoy them. Objectively, they're masterpieces of the art. But otherwise, I can't get into them.
Windmills? So? You've got BEARDMILLS! Also, love your version of atheism. I do believe it is the 'correct' version as we move forward.
Next SHUDDER BEFORE BEAUTIFUL by NIGHTWISH LIVE..
Nah man, you just grow your beard a little longer, so you can windmill with it 🤘🏻😁
I like how you think
I'm bearded also... Check my fb... You can see my profilepicture
Hopefully 2020 my friend...world tour.new album
Hes gonna habe to travel across the ocean if he wants to see a show like this one though. In the US they only do small venues without most of the pyro etc.
Yeah too bad but hopefully with more popularity they can get bigger gigs here
@@TerranigmaQuintet My dream is to see them outdoors at Redrocks natural amphitheater West of Denver. It seats over 9000 though, about 5 times their normal crowd. No pyrotechnics allowed, of course, but the venue would be spectacular.
I just had to sub to you when you said you're an Atheist. I always want to support my Atheist brothers, especially when they love Symphonic metal as much as I do.
One of my favorite bands is EPICA. You should definitely check them out.
I'd love to see your reaction to - Epica Sancta Terra
In this song, Simone Simons is singing with Floor Jensen.
ruclips.net/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/видео.html
please you have to ckeck out Whitechapel - The Darkest Day of Man!!!
You are this close to being able to windmill your beard.
The keyboardist writes 95% of their songs. Unfortunately, we are all going to have to wait a year to see them live. They are taking the year off touring to rest and write/record new album.
It’s too exhausting trying to understand religious belief let alone convert them. Take solace in knowing you aren’t so crippled by a fear of nothingness that you can’t see the beauty of life for what it really is. Imagine the things we could accomplish if they all put their energy into making this existence better instead of waiting on one that won’t come.
The thing is, even mentioning Christianity to many is considered an assault and harmful. No other "religion" has to deal with this on such a massive scale. Reaction was great bro. ... and I'll never mention religion again. PEACE
You have more hair in your beard than a lot of people have on their heads. grow it out some more and windmill with that :P
As others have said, if the subject matter of this song appeals to you, then you really need to listen to The Greatest Show on earth. An absolute masterpiece, I suspect that you will really enjoy it, and as a fan of Dawkins, maybe the Wembley version might be the way to go :)
That gives a whole new perspective to the old Burma Shave (shaving cream highway signs) advertisement.
The farmer who
was bald on top
sure wished he could
rotate the crop
He needed
Burma Shave
(vintage 1950's ?)
Welcome to Biological Evolutionary metal 😎 Or Darwinian or better yet: Darwinic Metal😆😜🤣 When Floor Jansen was little she wanted to be a Biologist and if I am correct Tuomas wanted to be a Marine Biologist ? Somebody help me out here 🐱👤 And Marco wanted to be an Astronomist I think 🐱👓
I would not lay the horrors committed by, for example, the catholic church at the feet of religion.
Just like I wouldn't lay the horrors committed by the nazis or communists at the feet of atheism.
Those would be over simplified conclusions to draw.
I think it has more to do with simply being human.
religion makes good do bad things
I don't like talking about religions.. then proceeded talking about religion 😒
Did you miss the point?
@@VerbalDroppings I think so.
