It's a joy to be alive in the age of Nightwish. The intelligence and artistry in the writing and scoring, and the talent and brilliance of every single musician makes Nightwish stand alone. Nightwish represents the very best of what music can be. I love this band, and each and every musician who has been a part of it over the years. Thank you all...
Wow, this band never stops to surprise me. Each new album is different from the previous ones and yet unmistakably Nightwish. The band manages to maintain its trademark without standing still. Absolutely awesome!
I just want to say thank you to Nightwish, y'all have helped me with dealing with the loss of my son on March 30 of this year and I leaned on your music to help me with and I know I'll probably never get to see y'all or meet y'all cause I'm in the United States but never can thank y'all enough for helping me much love from me to y'all
It‘s fantastic to see how the story of nightwish goes on and on with all the inspirations that comes in your mind, when you listen to this outstanding music. It an honor to be able to be part of that story - even from the far
This was a really cool concept. The makeup on the band was really cool. I’ve said for years Nightwish is more than the music it’s an experience. Tuomas’s writing has been a major influence on me for 25 years.
The way the band has been amping up the cinematic elements alongside the auditory is insane. It’s a meta experience. You can consume either or and still receive the message - we are human, a blink of an eye in the cosmic play, and we must appreciate what we have and beauty available while we live and thrive. Regardless of religion and belief, we are one. “We were here.”
As Tuomas implied in a recent interview, in this song, Floor represents the evil of what the world may be facing (and, in my opinion, taking on a role previously reserved for Marko) while the children's choir represents the hope for a better and brighter outcome and future. I absolutely love this as well as Perfume of the Timeless. I am anxiously biding my time for the upcoming September release of the entire album.
From the video footage itself, since Floor is "afflicted" in the same way as the people she's administering to, it suggests she is not the cause of the system, but she's certainly complicit in the system. And she experiences a crisis of belief in the system and wibblywobbly visuals begin. It's an interesting artistic concept the whole package.
Like the analysis. I'd say that rather than hope, it sounds more akin to a desperate call or demand for a better future. "We are the illstarven kids of your junkyard"
@@dirtyharry3341 you're by no means oblicated to stay here. I'm considering to go and spend some time on the pages you came from - and bash all they do
The more I listen to the song the more I like it. Everybody does a fantastic job and Floor as always, magnificent. The children's choir is a great addition to the song and of course the orchestra. I love how even with some differences to the Nighwish sound you can still tell is Nighwish. ❤
Atleat, this kne is actually listenable. Instead of whatever the first single was with that uncalled for unfinished high-pitched-fast-paced solo that sounded like it was at volume 90. While most if the song was at a volume 20-30 at most.
This keeps getting better with every listen. (The cranks must have only listened once.) There's a lot that you don't hear (or see) on the first few trips. Like how the girl planting a twig is the one holding up a rose toward the end. How things go sideways for the group at the moment the children start to sing. I'm still hearing new things in the instrumental break.
Hardly recognized the band members, for a moment I thought Floor was not in the video 🤣 No words but: CHILLS! How come this song at the same time it is so different from all the other Nightwish songs, it still carries the Nightwish sentiment to it, and it still differs so much from everything you can find out there. Gotta rewatch again and again to completely understand the message. Plus, my birthday today! What a gift!
I discovered Nightwish when I was fourteen. Now I cannot live without them! Thank you for the precious hearts you possess, cause these songs you are gifting us, are coming from your hearts! Wish you a very prolific and happy time in this timeless universe! Greetings from Armenia 🇦🇲
Love this song more and more everytime I listen to it. I love, that they picked up this theme, which we are facing in our time and reality since at least the last four years. They don't talk about certain things officially in interviews and stuff, while other artists (ab)use their influence heavily to spread their own agenda, and to push the side they are on. Nightwish takes a different approach. They encourage independent thought, then poignantly express their stance through their music. I deeply admire it!💛
Wow, what a great reference to the Ludovico experiment with the idea of the apocalypse in all previous generations and this one, nightwish never cease to surprise me
Yes. Yes yes yes. I’ll take ten scoops please! I’m so excited for this album I have no words! It’s been a pleasure and a privilege to listen to the art of such incredibly talented people for over a decade now. Every new release is different, yet so recognisably Nightwish🖤
Greetings from Wisconsin USA , 20 years fan and This Is awesome , Love it , Thank you Nightwish for making my life better each time you release a new song or Album !!!
I'll admit I've watched this when I'm high, and omg every sentence makes sense, the song is amazing, whole video speaks words. Wonderful tune. We are....? Let's exist. ❤️
Great song. Great message. Tuomas has always expressed himself and the world around him so beautifully through his music. Thank you for sharing it with the world.
Thank you, again, Nightwish. Also, my impressions from this single, are that it was meant to be a single; and I believe that the contract with the producer must include short length songs. So my take is that Tuomas is taking this "opportunity" to share a message to the world. It reminds me of "Noise", and it was also a single, and also short length. :)
Inspirational: YES, Artistic: YES, Cinematographyc: YES...All is there, and I will always listen to Nightwish, which I have since 2002. Although I appreciate it, this song won't be my favorite.
LMAO. This is exactly the problem with Nightwish the last five years or so. Too many of you are just floor fan and not fans of the band, that’s why you don’t ride with them no matter what they do in the music.
I have to admit, I really had to sit with the song and after many listens, I was coming to the conclusion that it was one of those extremely rare occasions where I simply didn't like the song but seeing it together with the video music it clicked - I get it and I think together they tell an incredible story. Incredible cinematography and thank you, Nightwish, for another masterpiece 🖤
Exactly the same feeling about the song. Not what I expected, but Nightwish music style evolved. Everyone is evolving, regardless of our expectations. Still trying to figure out how I feel about it, because it's not what I used to listen.
@doriantheelf8242 what a wild ride this band is taking us on, huh? I don't think this song will be in my top favorites but at least with the visuals I now understand it better and I think it's a beautiful piece. Here's to evolution and the wild ride
@@emmason8237 i generally find that so fascinating about NW - just look at their discography: EVERY TIME they're trying sthg new. No song, no album is like another. It always evolves and I believe that's what keeps NW alive, even after so many years.

First, this song is way too amazing, the lyrics is spatial and the music video is so on point. The choir part make me fly to the moon and the voice of Floor is such so clear. So thanks, once again, for releasing such a masterpiece. Last note to mention, Floor that dress is omg amazing, I’m so in love. Congratulations guys❤
once gain, people, you don't disappoint, you never fail to put a smile on my face, with the music and fantastic musicianship/singing. Another masterpiece. The video is amazing too.
Das neue Album hat jetzt schon mein Herz gewonnen, beide bereits veröffentlichen Songs sind einzigartig, rein in ein neues musikalisches Gebiet, mit gewohntem Nightwish Tiefgang. Es holt mich ab und nimmt mich mit auf Reise
In a time full of music "products", there is Nightwish... standing apart of all that rubbish, with artistry, real talent and intelligence. So glad I can be here. Many thanks for your music.
Nightwish Army Cleveland, Ohio USA Division reporting for duty. It is such a privilege to be a fan of this amazing band. We are just a little over a month away from Yesterwynde. I can’t wait! I have already pre-ordered the album from iTunes, and I plan on buying two CD copies as well. I hope all Nightwish fans will do the same. Let’s make this a number one album for the band.
Don't you just hate it when you're trying to watch the news but fall sideways through your screen and end up in space? Every freaking Thursday I swear... and my insurance never covers for it! Jokes aside, I absolutely love the visuals in this video. I don't often like music videos as it feels like they break the images I have in my mind while listening to the music on its own, but this one just works. Wonderful work!
The feeling of falling throughout the entire film makes me uncomfortable, and I love it. It fits the music so well! I absolutely fell in love with it, you have deeply affected me with this one. Well done Nightwish, Stobe and Khimo 😘
I'm so happy that Nightwish is still making songs that are not rushed. We can notice that they're well elaborated, showing the time spent in each song. You are great and I am grateful that you share your work with us. Well done!
Tuomas has decided to write songs about mankind, its great discoveries, art, music, science but also its awful sides, manipulation, greed, wars and using fear in societys and as a political tool. All this good and bad we humans do in a paradise planet which could provide meaningful life to all if we come to our sences. Nightwish songs are very positive and greatly layered and leaves you uplifted after listening to it. To make a song of fear itself (or as a tool) makes no sence to write it with positive lyrics. The Day Of...is great in every respect and it leaves you thinking about that fear matter, which is important. Sometimes I think that Nightwish was hired by UN to educate us rockn roll humans.😊😊
I absolutely adore this song. The whole way through I couldn't shake the phrase that stuck in my mind "if you live terrified of everything, then you've lived for nothing".
I wasn't really feeling this song until the abrupt change at "Too late; gather up." That caught my attention, and then everything after that was great. Now going back to the beginning, I like the whole thing.
This video is a profound exploration of creativity and technique! The way each element is woven together is not only inspiring but also a testament to the skill and vision behind it. Thank you for sharing such a captivating piece with us.
This was so deep, for a moment i thought i saw Adele rolling through it.. Good job, as expected.. i can't wait to hear the rest of this album Thank you so much
I'm glad to say the song has grown on me, it has lots of Song of Myself and Scaretale vibes, I picture it in my head like an eerie puppet show or a dark carnival made of AI characters (Tim Burton, or Neil Gaiman's Coraline style) but it will probably be a red version of Matrix (sorry but that's what my mind instantly went to) mixed with the somber world displayed in Noise video
Once again impressed with Tuomas' lyrics and even more so with Floor's ability to sing them, because boy do they make a complicated vocal line 🤣 Loved the song, my excitement for the album keeps growing!
"We are too many for our Mother" ... "Here’s a million ropes for the hangman Nightmare cavalcade for the sandman" .... I love how each sentence of these lyrics carry such a deep meaning.
Wow, love how this song has a fresh feel but still has that unmistakable Nightwish sound. They’ve managed to evolve while staying true to what makes them great, and the music video is a masterpiece, perfectly complementing the song’s powerful vibe. ❤
I'm a child of the 80s and I'm going back to the future with this wonderful song. What Nightwish conjures up in just under 5 minutes remains masterful. 👏✌️
Took me a moment to get into this one on first listen, but it’s rapidly growing on me. There’s something deeply intriguing about this song that I can’t quite put my finger on, and it makes me want to go back and listen to it a dozen more times just so I can absorb what’s happening musically and what is being said lyrically. Like, there’s some serious depth to this one and I’m not quite getting it yet, but I want to understand it. I suspect this one’s gonna be a banger if they ever do it live, that bridge section is phenomenal. - 2nd watch, I am really digging this song, and I’m deeply disturbed by it. There’s something here that’s just giving me dread and I can’t quite put my finger on it yet. The combination of the music and the video images is really something, they do such good music videos these days. I think I’m starting to understand it more, I feel like they’re talking about fear-mongering and how it’s used to manipulate and control people, and how we just lap it up, but it’s hard to tell without the lyrics available just yet. At least, that’s the vibe I’m getting from the music and the video.
I'm with you 100% wasn't too sure when I first heard it, then replayed it a second time, then a 3rd and 4th. And I think you're right about what the meaning behind the song is too, at least partially; it's not just about how other use fear to manipulate us and we're complicit in it, it's also about how we actively find the worst and darkest parts and focus on that. There are a couple of lines in the third verse; 'A need to feel dread, gloom, awe, A lust for never-ending doom porn', which describes this perfectly. And in the clip, the men are sitting down, unrestrained, and raise their hand voluntarily to have eyedrops applied, rather than in say 'A Clockwork Orange' with a similar scene where the main character is restrained and has to be forced in order to watch the horrific images being flashed at him from the screen.
Mankind is wrecking the nature it needs to survive, synthesizing pandemics in labs, technological advances unrestrained, ethics becoming burdens, following dictators twisting complex truths to simple lies, cultivating hatred and greed, succumbing to morbid pleasure welcoming man's self-made Armageddon, their children crying out doomed to suffer a dystopian future, but they are ignored. This song is true art, it comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comforted.
Love this song! It's lyrics complicated and I'm sure it was hard to sing! Beautiful. I'm so glad to experience my first album launch like this! I'd love to see the making of the videos!
This is a brilliant way to highlight the path the world is going nowadays. I only hope the people who lead us in this direction listen closely to the song ... Once again Nightwish show us an incredible mixture of philosophy, feeling, rhythm and visionary thinking!
We encountered technical issues with the video when it was first delivered to RUclips. It has now been updated with correct audio. Enjoy!
Floove in love with Nightwish ❤❤❤ vi voglio bene ❤️

As Tuomas implied in a recent interview, in this song, Floor represents the evil of what the world may be facing (and, in my opinion, taking on a role previously reserved for Marko) while the children's choir represents the hope for a better and brighter outcome and future. I absolutely love this as well as Perfume of the Timeless. I am anxiously biding my time for the upcoming September release of the entire album.
From the video footage itself, since Floor is "afflicted" in the same way as the people she's administering to, it suggests she is not the cause of the system, but she's certainly complicit in the system. And she experiences a crisis of belief in the system and wibblywobbly visuals begin.
It's an interesting artistic concept the whole package.
Yeah, been in the freezer like Cartman for some time already :D
And also in an interview, he mentioned about Floor joining the children's choir for the last two choruses, and that there is a meaning behind it.
@@rickphil9999 Except that - for me - Floor will never be able to represent anything evil. But who am I to judge ...
Like the analysis. I'd say that rather than hope, it sounds more akin to a desperate call or demand for a better future.

PHARMA, DHARMA etc. y' all are so sticked to that stupid word play like y'all are a 5 yo child
The intro is a cinematic masterpiece.
Can't wait for the new album!! ❤
once gain, people, you don't disappoint, you never fail to put a smile on my face, with the music and fantastic musicianship/singing. Another masterpiece. The video is amazing too.
Das neue Album hat jetzt schon mein Herz gewonnen, beide bereits veröffentlichen Songs sind einzigartig, rein in ein neues musikalisches Gebiet, mit gewohntem Nightwish Tiefgang. Es holt mich ab und nimmt mich mit auf Reise
Meins auch.👍👍👍
In a time full of music "products", there is Nightwish... standing apart of all that rubbish, with artistry, real talent and intelligence. So glad I can be here. Many thanks for your music.
NW fans are truly delusional at this point. This is actual garbage

Nightwish
The rose the child is holding up 😢 ❤
That's the message. They're wise to the "empty sermon".
Nightwish Army Cleveland, Ohio USA Division reporting for duty. It is such a privilege to be a fan of this amazing band. We are just a little over a month away from Yesterwynde. I can’t wait! I have already pre-ordered the album from iTunes, and I plan on buying two CD copies as well. I hope all Nightwish fans will do the same. Let’s make this a number one album for the band.
Greetings from Finland mate ❤

My bro....Tuomas cooked with this one. Damn, so heavy, so epic.
Cant wait to hear the other songs of the album
Love the sarcasm
@ricky49rob it ain't?.....
@@animulak no it ain't epic, it ain't heavy lol
@@ricky49rob for you maybe, for me its a great song
Don't you just hate it when you're trying to watch the news but fall sideways through your screen and end up in space? Every freaking Thursday I swear... and my insurance never covers for it!
Jokes aside, I absolutely love the visuals in this video. I don't often like music videos as it feels like they break the images I have in my mind while listening to the music on its own, but this one just works. Wonderful work!
I've stopped watching news way back when - just for that reason
OMG, this is amazing.True art.
A very nice song. Love the choir part!
Greetings from Belgique.....to all the Nightwish...fans❤

The feeling of falling throughout the entire film makes me uncomfortable, and I love it. It fits the music so well! I absolutely fell in love with it, you have deeply affected me with this one. Well done Nightwish, Stobe and Khimo 😘
Me too, uncomfortable of how bad this is
Kinda like being aboard a Boing 737...
My favorite so far!
I'm so happy that Nightwish is still making songs that are not rushed. We can notice that they're well elaborated, showing the time spent in each song. You are great and I am grateful that you share your work with us. Well done!
Tuomas has decided to write songs about mankind, its great discoveries, art, music, science but also its awful sides, manipulation, greed, wars and using fear in societys and as a political tool. All this good and bad we humans do in a paradise planet which could provide meaningful life to all if we come to our sences. Nightwish songs are very positive and greatly layered and leaves you uplifted after listening to it. To make a song of fear itself (or as a tool) makes no sence to write it with positive lyrics. The Day Of...is great in every respect and it leaves you thinking about that fear matter, which is important. Sometimes I think that Nightwish was hired by UN to educate us rockn roll humans.😊😊
The symbolism is off the charts.
When you know, you know.
Every time I listen to this it becomes better.
I absolutely adore this song.
The whole way through I couldn't shake the phrase that stuck in my mind "if you live terrified of everything, then you've lived for nothing".
I wasn't really feeling this song until the abrupt change at "Too late; gather up." That caught my attention, and then everything after that was great. Now going back to the beginning, I like the whole thing.
This video is a profound exploration of creativity and technique! The way each element is woven together is not only inspiring but also a testament to the skill and vision behind it. Thank you for sharing such a captivating piece with us.
Melhor banda de todos os tempos... sensacional.
This was so deep, for a moment i thought i saw Adele rolling through it..
Good job, as expected.. i can't wait to hear the rest of this album
Thank you so much
We are the ill-starred kids of your junkyard, Nightwish now and forevermore since Once. I cannot wait for the rest of Yesterwynde ❤
I'm glad to say the song has grown on me, it has lots of Song of Myself and Scaretale vibes, I picture it in my head like an eerie puppet show or a dark carnival made of AI characters (Tim Burton, or Neil Gaiman's Coraline style) but it will probably be a red version of Matrix (sorry but that's what my mind instantly went to) mixed with the somber world displayed in Noise video
I finally found my spiritual band. My soul resonates with your songs❤
Once again impressed with Tuomas' lyrics and even more so with Floor's ability to sing them, because boy do they make a complicated vocal line 🤣 Loved the song, my excitement for the album keeps growing!
@@hallvcinations especially when Floor was sick then pregnant, she is dedicated to their art and we would thank them, and especially her for that
Still missing Marco, though ... 😭
Loved this song ❤️🔥
"We are too many for our Mother" ... "Here’s a million ropes for the hangman
Nightmare cavalcade for the sandman" .... I love how each sentence of these lyrics carry such a deep meaning.
Wow, love how this song has a fresh feel but still has that unmistakable Nightwish sound. They’ve managed to evolve while staying true to what makes them great, and the music video is a masterpiece, perfectly complementing the song’s powerful vibe. ❤
Much love from portugal🇵🇹to Nightwish!❤
I'm a child of the 80s and I'm going back to the future with this wonderful song. What Nightwish conjures up in just under 5 minutes remains masterful. 👏✌️
Everytime I listen to this magic it gives me goosebumps and just all Nightwish songs unfolds a story that is very to us all thank you Nightwish with ❤
thx you for this masterpiece,we love you Nightwish
it's a confirmation it;s still the NIGHTWISH! cheers! B
This was Epic! 👏👍
Took me a moment to get into this one on first listen, but it’s rapidly growing on me. There’s something deeply intriguing about this song that I can’t quite put my finger on, and it makes me want to go back and listen to it a dozen more times just so I can absorb what’s happening musically and what is being said lyrically. Like, there’s some serious depth to this one and I’m not quite getting it yet, but I want to understand it. I suspect this one’s gonna be a banger if they ever do it live, that bridge section is phenomenal.

2nd watch, I am really digging this song, and I’m deeply disturbed by it. There’s something here that’s just giving me dread and I can’t quite put my finger on it yet. The combination of the music and the video images is really something, they do such good music videos these days. I think I’m starting to understand it more, I feel like they’re talking about fear-mongering and how it’s used to manipulate and control people, and how we just lap it up, but it’s hard to tell without the lyrics available just yet. At least, that’s the vibe I’m getting from the music and the video.
I'm with you 100% wasn't too sure when I first heard it, then replayed it a second time, then a 3rd and 4th.
And I think you're right about what the meaning behind the song is too, at least partially; it's not just about how other use fear to manipulate us and we're complicit in it, it's also about how we actively find the worst and darkest parts and focus on that. There are a couple of lines in the third verse; 'A need to feel dread, gloom, awe, A lust for never-ending doom porn', which describes this perfectly.
And in the clip, the men are sitting down, unrestrained, and raise their hand voluntarily to have eyedrops applied, rather than in say 'A Clockwork Orange' with a similar scene where the main character is restrained and has to be forced in order to watch the horrific images being flashed at him from the screen.
Mankind is wrecking the nature it needs to survive, synthesizing pandemics in labs, technological advances unrestrained, ethics becoming burdens, following dictators twisting complex truths to simple lies, cultivating hatred and greed, succumbing to morbid pleasure welcoming man's self-made Armageddon, their children crying out doomed to suffer a dystopian future, but they are ignored.
This song is true art, it comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comforted.
What a superb song!! And little unusual song melody ❤
Love this song! It's lyrics complicated and I'm sure it was hard to sing! Beautiful. I'm so glad to experience my first album launch like this! I'd love to see the making of the videos!
This is a lot more topical than the Nightwish I'm accustomed to, but I'm _definitely_ not complaining.
This is a brilliant way to highlight the path the world is going nowadays. I only hope the people who lead us in this direction listen closely to the song ... Once again Nightwish show us an incredible mixture of philosophy, feeling, rhythm and visionary thinking!
The legacy media colludes with liberal doomsday propaganda to garner control over the gullible sheep, case in point the covid pandemic.
Quality, quality, quality
Thank you for another story and dream. Don't stop making music please!
I didn't care for this song on my first listen, and I don't have a clue why. This is fantastic.
What else is there to say? This is just a brilliant band
