    Floor is not a liar at all. Everybody feels much better after seeing this performance. I like this "feel good" song a lot. I think, that "we were here" means that we all are experiencing the same wonderful story that they are telling. The band and the audience there and then, and you and me here and now. 😅👍

    Can we talk about Marko's kilt in this one? It made my day...After 30+ years he still never fails to surprise me. This song should be mandatory listen in all places requiring uplifting and hope.

    Nightwish strikes me as an "All Star Team" with no egos. It's pretty amazing because anyone of them would be the star of another band. Thank you for your reaction. You guys are always fun.

    For those wondering, alpenglow is an optical phenomenon forming a horizontal reddish glow near the horizon opposite to the Sun when the solar disk is just below the horizon. It's more easily visible against mountains.

They obviously want to give the best they can. Having fun with the audience and creating an almost touchable interaction. I enjoy so much their stage presentation, it's unique.

    they reuse the ' *We were here* ' line in *The Greatest Show on Earth* song, the finale of the same album *Endless Forms Most Beautiful* , with the same melody but slowed down, you don't realise that when you listen songs over then and there, but you should try to listen to the albums entirely, because they tell stories and as you said, it ties the songs together especially since the album *Dark Passion Play* , listening to a song is already wonderful but listening to a whole album is 10 times better :) I know it's not the same and might provent you from doing reactions videos but I guess that's the con of doing it this way :| I still love your reactions though
