Thank you to everyone who joined us on the Premiere Stream. The first we have ever done and we loved being there. Could not have been a better track than that. Not sure if Live chat will be archived and hope it remains somewhere as was the best of times. Made our weekend.Thank you all.
You did very well indeed. Now, the problem is that you'll be hard pushed to top TGSOE. . . . . . . And thank you both, it was really good. I hope my scribblings were of some value, but you should have copied them on to poor Alex !

Was great fun...thanks.Another historic track by Nightwish is Creek Mary's Blood from End Of An Era concert with Tarja, since you are now Americans :) a beautiful tribute to the Nativve Americans. There are 3 videos take the one over 10 minutes.

Floor hitting those notes at the end " we were here" is amazing considering its the last song of the night after singing her lungs out for over 2 hrs ....what a vocal athlete.
Guys, you forgot one and it is now my second favorite of all and the most beautiful ending of any song...on Earth... "ENDLESSNESS" I dare you!@@TheThamesmen
It is the last track on Human Nature, first CD. I have watched so many Nightwish reactions, you are top notch in mere enthusiasm and genuineness. I have to say my top ten now is Ghost Love Score, Endlessness, Greatest Show on Earth, Shoemaker, Poet and Pendulum, Ever Dream (Wacken), Song of Myself (Wacken), Last Ride of the Day (Wacken), and a tie Ghost River and Romanticide (both Wacken) Nightwish Army hoping for band to rejoin activity in 2025 after Floor's new baby and maybe wishing for Marko health to be at a place where he might do something at least temporarily. We can Ever Dream can't we?@@TheThamesmen
So happy you did the Tampere version. Yes, the Wembley version has Richard Dawkins doing some of his readings live on stage, but the sheer spectacle of the stage setup, fireworks, Floor's dress, etc., and warmth and gratitude of the ending, make Tampere my favorite. What an opus!! Glad you guys finally got to see this. Cheers.
@@TheThamesmen I do prefer the Wembley version because of the outro. No fireworks can ever beat that in epicnes. You need to check it even if just on your own.
I remember clearly the first time I showed my wife this peformance. I was hiding behind her all teared up and she turns around and faced me in tears. It was just so grand and so moving. We were here! Those words carry so much meaning. Great reaction guys :)
This is such an epic and amazing song, the music is out of this world (but those words are not even close to decribe the feeling I get from it). And every time Marko and Floor are starting their duet........goosebumps
As a guitarist and a touring musician I could not survive the work load that this band endures. Nightwish is the hardest working band in the world! This show took so much planning and so much rehearsal time that I as a pro would find hard if not impossible. I have great respect for these lads and offer my congradulations on a great show! Most think music is an easy path to riches. I busted my ass and still I am not rich by any means. I have toured with many great acts yet most never achieve the greatness of this band. Nightwish is an anomoly that all bands hope to achieve.
Well, I came in relatively new to Nightwish. Actually, I'm just starting with metal. I'm hooked, listening to it 24/7. And then I encountered Nightwish with Walking in the Air. I cried for 2 days (I get emotional from music I think is beautiful) and then I listened to this. Jesus. This must be what it's like to be human and to experience all those emotions. What an band! Looking forward to listen to their entire discography.
halfway into the reaction, but figured I'll do my comment now. 1. Glad you picked the Tampere version as it is way better (imo) than the 'official' one. 2. I do watch you on TV, not phone nor traditional pc monitor. My 60" TV is my main monitor, so yes, you are on TV, at least here ;-)

Nightwish w/Floor Jansen is my nomination for best live performance band in the history of R&R. This entire concert is brilliant. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for loving this impressive masterpiece as much as we do ❤️ Chills every one of the eightiesomething times watching The Greatest Show On Earth 🌍
Nice one guys 🤗, this concert was the first time I heard and saw Nightwish. By the end of this concert I was an emotional wreck and totally hooked. The roar from the crowd at the end was deafening. Six years later and I get to see them live again at Wembley, it’s gonna be frikken AWESOME 🔥🤘❤️🇬🇧
This is such a great song. I listen to it everytime I have a drive of at least 20 minutes, so I can enjoy it from start to finish without cutting it off short.
We are all so small, but the fact that we are here is so amazing looking at the odds, that we should really more appreciate the pure fact of being alive. Greets from Germany! Rock on!
Ever since I've heard this song and seen the videos, I think can honestly say that "The Greatest Show on Earth" is my All Time Favorite Song. Why? Well, because it has a little bit of everything for everybody. It has its operatic vocals, its Metal vocals, its symphonic keyboard elements, its metal bass and guitar elements, and its theatrical storytelling of an awesome concept ofthe Evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang to the supposed end of Earth in a nuclear holocaust.
Well you Thames Men, This is just the beginning of the rabbithole. There is still The Poet And The Pendelum and a lot more before that!Just keep on doing what you do, you do it great! Big hugs from Finland/Mike
Thank you for your reaction, gentlemen. Indeed, the content of the song is, in my opinion, an ode to life. The possibility that you were born into this world is like a grain of sand in the Sahara ... Not to mention that you were born with your mirror image. Those identical twin girls dressed in glasses in the audience make an impression every time. Is it coincidence or the genius of the director ??And the Wembley version ... definitely look at it. You may be surprised.
Welcome to the club folks! Really glad you watched through to the end. If nothing else, to see a band so happy in themselves. What an experience it must have been to be there.
@@TheThamesmen If it is a Nightwish-banger you wish for, then go for "Weak Fantasy" ruclips.net/video/AN239Pbqbjo/видео.html (this one with lyrics on-screen). If you wish for something different, but still epic of grand proportions, then go for Wintersun "Sons Of Winter And Stars" Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios ruclips.net/video/Tl5T-glTdXw/видео.html Some will disapprove to this choice, because it is something of a chock treatment as a first introduction to this band - you will be overwhelmed by sounds, but then, you two should already have a bit thicker skin on your noses, so I say go for it...
@@TheThamesmen that would be a Big Bang Banger! (Even if "The Greatest Show On Earth" lyrics start at the beginning of our Planet's lifespan, not from the beginning of the universe...) 👋🇮🇹🖖
That’s life. That’s Nightwish. BTW: My hometown ❤️ Was working on stage crew in this gig. I was honoured to meet Floor’s parents that day. It was magical night ❤️🙏🏻🤘🇫🇮 Edit: Tampere is Capital of Heavy Metal and HCPunk 😉😘
@@TheThamesmen I should have mentioned - the part "we were here" has its own meaning, but it also touches back on the theme of Alpenglow.:) I can't help but whisper "We were here" when I make my own tiny impression upon the world. EDIT: I see you haven't gotten to the Poet and the Pendulum yet! I don't recall if it was on the poll, but be sure to do so ;) I know a link with good subtitles: ruclips.net/video/iEzZRMthhXU/видео.html You will want to do your homework on it first, though. Trust me. I can give you the tl;dr version, if you like.
Just for now, it is my duty to introduce you to some info about the lyrics. Lyrics are in " " [Part 1: Four point Six] "Archaean horizon, The first sunrise" Earth's history is divided into four principal Eons: the Hadean, the Archean, Proterozoic, and the Phanerozoic. The Hadean is the Eon during which the Earth and Moon formed; in the Archaean, primordial life appeared. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth "On a pristine gaea" Gaia is the primordial Greek goddess of the Earth. More recently, the Gaia hypothesis is a recognition of the living and nonliving Earth systems which form an interdependent whole. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia "Opus perfectum, Somewhere there, us sleeping" Pristine perfection (of silence, of a blank page, of the very point from which the big bang itself sprung) implies a rich creative potential. Here Earth is painted in the same powerful way. Diversity awaits; unborn beings are sleeping the same sleep to which they will return at death. This interpretation is thematically linked with the album's opening track, "Shudder before the Beautiful," which includes the lyrics, "The music of this awe, Deep silence between the notes, Deafens me with endless love." Or as the furious hobbit screamed at the novice trumpeter, "An artist respects the silence, it serves as the foundation of creativity." [Part 2: Life] "The cosmic law of gravity Pulled the newborns around a fire, A careless cold infinity in every vast direction. Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone" Gravity pulls Earth and the other planets around the energizing Sun in an otherwise inhospitable universe. Earth is the only planet in our solar system's circumstellar habitable zone, orbiting at the "just right, not too hot, not too cold" distance from the Sun. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_habitable_zone "She has a tale to tell, From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast, Enter LUCA" In astronomy, stellar nurseries are the birthplaces of stars: they nurse stars Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_formation#Stellar_nurseries Poetically, our solar system is another "stellar nursery," in which a star is the nurse, caring for and warming a planet of 'newborns,' early carbon-based life. "Feast" evokes the incorporation of plentiful chemical building blocks into rudimentary life forms. "LUCA" stands for "Last universal common ancestor," the one single organism from which all other presently existing life on Earth descended. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_universal_ancestor "The tapestry of chemistry is a writing in the garden, Leading us to the mother of all" The periodic table of elements does look like a sort of patchwork tapestry, but this can go further. The historical function of tapestries was as "nomadic murals," pictographical histories which moving people could pack up and revisit wherever they went. The "writing in the garden," in nature, is not only the stone murals left by dead animals in the form of fossils, but is also this chemical writing that encodes the relatively nomadic DNA molecule with the instructions for life. The scientific investigation of this information leads us back to LUCA, and further. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapestry#Function "We are one, We are a universe," This is the natural conclusion to draw from the fact that life shares common origin, that all life is built with the same blocks, and that all life on Earth is interdependent (gaia hypothesis). The multiplicity of beings on Earth are one, just as the cells in a body are one. "Forebears of what will be Scions of the Devonian sea." The Devonian geologic time period marked the first significant, rapid diversification of life (and the more well-known Cambrian explosion is another of these 'adaptive radiation' events). It was during the Devonian that the 'higher plants' appeared and blanketed the continents with forests. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devonian . The word "scion" refers to a shoot of a plant cut for grafting, and is also used to denote a descendent of a notable family. Both meanings apply. "Aeons pass, Writing the tale of us all. A day-to-day new opening For the greatest show on Earth" Evolutionary adaptation is written in the DNA and as fossils in the rocks, and is ongoing. Species die, diversifiy and delineate. Every day is different, every day something changes. "Ion channels welcoming the outside world To the stuff of stars" Ion channels are found in the membranes of all cells, controlling the flow of energy through the cells. The stuff of stars is all the physical matter we're made of. So it's the ion channels, guiding enery, which allow living bodies to interact with the rest of the world by exchanging energy with it. "Stuff of stars" is surely a Sagan reference: "The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff." For fun: ruclips.net/video/XGK84Poeynk/видео.html "Bedding the tree of a biological holy, Enter life" The bed of a tree is the nutrient-rich soil from which it grows, a soil made of dead things. The "tree of a biological holy" is probably the tree of life en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_of_life_(biology) . This line refers to the "holy" legendary tree of everlasting life but also means the conceptual, branching family tree of all life, whose bed consists of all deceased beings (in a more literal sense), or all extinct ancestral species (in a more abstract sense). This is thematically linked with the song "Alpenglow." "We are here to care for the garden, The wonder of birth Of every form most beautiful" "We" could be human beings tasked with acting as nature's stewards, garden of eden style, but that's not chronological -- human beings haven't quite appeared in the song yet. "We" could instead be all of life itself, in a gaia-philosophy sense, which posits that life creates environments ever more hospitable to more life. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_philosophy Or maybe it's a combination of these two thoughts: life eventually creates an environment suitable for the development of consiously acting, thinking human stewards. [Part 3: The Toolmaker] "After a billion years, The show is still here. Not a single one of your fathers died young." Every single one of a given person's ancestors, male and female, lived past puberty at least. But "fathers" evokes "forefathers," which has a nicer storytelling ring to it than "parents." "The handy travelers Out of Africa Little Lucy of the Afar" Handymen are good with tools; travelers posessing hands rather than forefeet walk upright. Hominids originated in Africa and spread to the rest of the world from there. Lucy is a particular specimen of the Australopithecus, one of many "missing links" between modern humans and nonhuman ancestors. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_(Australopithecus) "Gave birth to fantasy, To idolatry, To self-destructive weaponry. Enter the God of gaps Deep within the past. Atavistic dread of the hunted!" The brain grows, consciousness and creativity along with it. Atavism is the tendency to revert to ancestral type, an evolutionary throwback. Fight-or-flight instincts that helped human ancestors survive have now been creatively projected onto the world to both explain it (origins, meaning, suffering) and gain security in it (bargaining through sacrifice). These are the roots of theism. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atavism "Enter Ionia, the cradle of thought, The architecture of understanding. The human lust to feel so exceptional, To rule the Earth" Nomadic people develop agriculture and settle down into civilizations. The word "architecture" is at once both literal and figurative. The efficiency of civilization graces people with free time to do more than just feed themselves. They develop rich cultural traditions, arts and philosophies, much of which are deeply influenced by how different humans now are from all the rest of life. "Hunger for shiny rocks, For giant mushroom clouds, The will to do as you'd be done by." Shiny rocks are wealth: gold, precious stones, jewels, and later uranium which leads to the nuclear arms race. The golden rule -- "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" -- is a coin with a dark side: "an eye for an eye," revenge. This ensures the "MAD"ness of mutually assured destruction. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_assured_destruction "Enter history, the grand finale. Enter ratkind." "Ratkind" comes from Richard Dawkins' book "The Ancestor's Tale." Dawkins imagines a post-apocalyptic world in which rodents feast on the remnants of humanity (and humanity's garbage). The rat population explodes, and then as they exhaust these resources they turn on one another for food. As a consequence of natural selection, the rats diverge into new carnivorous and herbivorous species, and perhaps, eventually, a specices of rodent whose intelligence rivals that of humans. This is "ratkind." Https://iberianature.com/wildworld/tag/ratkind/ "Man, he took his time in the sun, Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand." From William Blake: "To see a World in a Grain of Sand, And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour." ...And the story of the planet in 24 minutes. Not bad. "He gave birth to poetry, But one day'll cease to be. Greet the last light of the library" A bittersweet redundancy: poetry with library, the last light with ceasing to be. Reminiscent of Elan: "Be the first to greet the morn [...] Travel with great élan, dance a jig at the funeral." "We were here!" Who else is going to vote for this song's inclusion on the next Voyager golden record, if there'll ever be one? I want to beam this song into space forever.
My interpetation of "The cosmic law of gravity pulls the newborns around the fire". is that the newborns is the solarsystems planets that is cirkeling the sun (the fire) by gravity. It's probably the best thing I've ever seen. The end always tears me up.
Thank you for the information and everyone joining us on this journey. We love the comments and community. We love learning these details as part of the ride. We do this for fun and to hang out so thank you.
Absolutely Love This! This wouldn't be possible without Kai on drums (The Human Metronome)..Troy..Emmpu.. Tuomas..Floor..and Marko... No one can sing AND play that bass like him.. Stars aligned for this group at this time! Fun Reaction! 👊
The striking outfit of Floor in the Tampere concert makes the difference, gives it a tiny bit more umpfh than the other ones;-) Just kidding: I admire this band for it's courage and dedication beside the fun they have on stage. Wish you succes this weekend.
I read that the pattern design of her dress is a mix of the DNA double helix so appropriate to the GSOE track , and the colours of the Finish Flag : if that’s correct it’s just another example of their craft and attention to detail.
@TheThamesmen I’ve seen many reactions to this song, and yet I admire every time not only the band’s making, but the background pictures and videos. Amazing. The whole band is also amazing, there is no bad link in it, ever. The enthusiasm with which Nightwish performs and plays music and sings is admirable. Thank you for responding to the splendor of the song. I've liked you since yours first NW reaction came out, thank you 🙏💜
Well, this reaction got you a new subscriber. Not only the evolution story of mindkind, but also of humankind through music - Tuomas managed to sneak it in: early tribal drumming and chanting can be heard. Followed by throat singing and a famous Bach snippet. A rocket blast sets off the Modern Age and a banjo depicting country music. Then Metalica unmistakable main riff from Enter Sandman followed by a short measure of techno or electronic music.
Hey guys, really do enjoy your reactions. You are really respectful of all the artists you watch and you can tell you really love music. Now to this reaction...awesome. Not a bad band, ha. Came across Nightwish in April last year, and they have been responsible for getting me through 251 days of lockdown (Melbourne, the most locked down city in the world). Hope this journey continues for you. They really don't have a bad song! How many bands can keep you captivated in a 20+ min song!
Outstanding reaction. Please consider reacting tosome songs from their latest album. I highly recommend Shoemaker's lyric video. Incredible song that I think is Nightwish's fourth masterpeice.
Those fireworks in the beginning represent the big bang/creation of the universe. Wembley is also very very special for a couple reasons. You should def do that one as well.
Ahhhhh... Did you know the phrase Big Bang was created by someone who thought it was not real and just joked "oh so you think we started from a big bang?" Now there's bloody songs mocking him!
It is beautiful, makes me want to cry every time. I LOVE Tuomas, what a genius. You might want to watch one that Richard Dawkins is personally there. I don’t remember where, but guessing in Britain. He says his part on the stage at the end. The fans loved seeing him. Thanks for this one!
nightwish ( tuomas )have amazing talent to make intelligent songs to sound hit songs,just like this masterpiece. thanx to great reaction like always and prepare to hear this song when they come usa, it´s in they set list :) have great day and soon new week there.
Thank you for doing the "right" version!! I guess it was hard to resist doing the Wembley version with Richard Dawkins. I hope you check that show out as well but I'm really happy you reacted to Tampere! Thank You! Much Love 💙💛💙
Thank you for sharing your experience. ❤ (They also credited their bus drivers) 😂❤ I hear the evolution of music in this song as well. You hear a harpsichord, banjo, the whistle and the well known tribute to the “Enter Sandman “ riff. 🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Something to point out is that in the middle of Toolmaker there is a display of the evolution of music, although not all parts are easy to hear in the live version. There's tribal drumming and singing, a Gregorian chant, Minuet in G Minor, a banjo representing folk music, the riff from Enter Sandman, and then some modern dance music leading directly into the "chorus" of the Toolmaker movement. I may have forgotten something in there as I'm just taking it by memory.
Every time i see this performance i get teary eyed at the "We were here" part, thinking what an amazing piece the keyboardist Tuomas has written here, and trying to imagine myself in his shoes, standing behind that keyboard with my fellow bandmates screaming "we were here" from the top of their lungs together with a crowd like that. It must be such an amazing, absurd, emotional and intense feeling. I bet he is pretty used to it by now but non the less, it must at least be inspirational for him.
Hi again from UK - blimey you are going for the big one !!! Right version at Tampere IMO - can’t wait to join you on the journey , it will be epic - (remember to keep watching right through as the end credits scroll)
It's "Poet and the Pendulum" you need to be prepared for, Knowing the back story is a must. Wembley is the best one. There is a version with lyrics, which helps.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on the Premiere Stream. The first we have ever done and we loved being there. Could not have been a better track than that. Not sure if Live chat will be archived and hope it remains somewhere as was the best of times. Made our weekend.Thank you all.

We are all so small, but the fact that we are here is so amazing looking at the odds, that we should really more appreciate the pure fact of being alive. Greets from Germany! Rock on!
Watched and heard this so many times ...still crying everytime. Thanks again
Be well
Love this band, love the track, love the messages and you guys did it justice. Great reaction! Thank you.
Thanks for following along with us. It was an amazing track
Ever since I've heard this song and seen the videos, I think can honestly say that "The Greatest Show on Earth" is my All Time Favorite Song. Why? Well, because it has a little bit of everything for everybody. It has its operatic vocals, its Metal vocals, its symphonic keyboard elements, its metal bass and guitar elements, and its theatrical storytelling of an awesome concept ofthe Evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang to the supposed end of Earth in a nuclear holocaust.
I agree with you. Have a great weekend
This truly is The greatest show on earth 🤗🤗🤗
Well the band are not bad either
We Were Here! 🤘
WE WERE HERE..All Hail to you and the Nightwish Army around the globe...greets from the netherlands
Well you Thames Men, This is just the beginning of the rabbithole. There is still The Poet And The Pendelum and a lot more before that!Just keep on doing what you do, you do it great! Big hugs from Finland/Mike
Beginning - we are deep in the tunnels
Damn damn damn, I'm crying. It's like an unawakened!
And that moment after the song when you looked like almost speechless. It shows how good the song is.
Utterly mindblowing. So good
Even the bus driver is gettin recognotion. Hahahaha Soooo cool
Toot toot.
Thank you for your reaction, gentlemen. Indeed, the content of the song is, in my opinion, an ode to life. The possibility that you were born into this world is like a grain of sand in the Sahara ... Not to mention that you were born with your mirror image. Those identical twin girls dressed in glasses in the audience make an impression every time. Is it coincidence or the genius of the director ??And the Wembley version ... definitely look at it. You may be surprised.
I find myself very choked up and leaking out of my eyes through out this master piece.....
It truly is a masterpiece. Just brilliant
Can't get enough of your enthusiasm and of Nightwish of course...!!
Thank you and be well
🤘🤘 Fantastic gentlemen!!!! Hello from Sacramento!!!! I absolutely LOVE Nightwish!!!! 😁❤✌🏼
Rock on! Just up the road!!
Welcome to the club folks! Really glad you watched through to the end. If nothing else, to see a band so happy in themselves. What an experience it must have been to be there.
Agreed......
You will not find a strong enough "Banger-word" for this one 🤘😛🤘
We Will try!
Can you suggest some new Bangers for us?
@@TheThamesmen If it is a Nightwish-banger you wish for, then go for "Weak Fantasy" ruclips.net/video/AN239Pbqbjo/видео.html (this one with lyrics on-screen). If you wish for something different, but still epic of grand proportions, then go for Wintersun "Sons Of Winter And Stars" Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios ruclips.net/video/Tl5T-glTdXw/видео.html Some will disapprove to this choice, because it is something of a chock treatment as a first introduction to this band - you will be overwhelmed by sounds, but then, you two should already have a bit thicker skin on your noses, so I say go for it...
@@TheThamesmen that would be a Big Bang Banger! (Even if "The Greatest Show On Earth" lyrics start at the beginning of our Planet's lifespan, not from the beginning of the universe...)
👋🇮🇹🖖
That’s life. That’s Nightwish.
BTW: My hometown ❤️ Was working on stage crew in this gig. I was honoured to meet Floor’s parents that day. It was magical night ❤️🙏🏻🤘🇫🇮
Edit: Tampere is Capital of Heavy Metal and HCPunk 😉😘
You and the rest of the crew did an incredible job helping to make this the spectacle it was. Thank you.
second the other comment. Great work making an amazing show. what a thing to be part of.
Thank you Markus!
Thank you for a great reaction. I really enjoy watching you guys. 🥳 Greetings from Switzerland. 🙋♀️
Thank you so much!
Glad you chose Tampere. Wembley is worth watching, too, but Tampere's my favorite
Was bloody fantastic!
@@TheThamesmen I should have mentioned - the part "we were here" has its own meaning, but it also touches back on the theme of Alpenglow.:) I can't help but whisper "We were here" when I make my own tiny impression upon the world. EDIT: I see you haven't gotten to the Poet and the Pendulum yet! I don't recall if it was on the poll, but be sure to do so ;) I know a link with good subtitles: ruclips.net/video/iEzZRMthhXU/видео.html You will want to do your homework on it first, though. Trust me. I can give you the tl;dr version, if you like.
Just for now, it is my duty to introduce you to some info about the lyrics.
Lyrics are in " "
[Part 1: Four point Six]
"Archaean horizon, The first sunrise"
Earth's history is divided into four principal Eons: the Hadean, the Archean, Proterozoic, and the Phanerozoic. The Hadean is the Eon during which the Earth and Moon formed; in the Archaean, primordial life appeared. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth
"On a pristine gaea"
Gaia is the primordial Greek goddess of the Earth. More recently, the Gaia hypothesis is a recognition of the living and nonliving Earth systems which form an interdependent whole. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia
"Opus perfectum, Somewhere there, us sleeping" Pristine perfection (of silence, of a blank page, of the very point from which the big bang itself sprung) implies a rich creative potential. Here Earth is painted in the same powerful way. Diversity awaits; unborn beings are sleeping the same sleep to which they will return at death. This interpretation is thematically linked with the album's opening track, "Shudder before the Beautiful," which includes the lyrics, "The music of this awe, Deep silence between the notes, Deafens me with endless love." Or as the furious hobbit screamed at the novice trumpeter, "An artist respects the silence, it serves as the foundation of creativity."
[Part 2: Life]
"The cosmic law of gravity Pulled the newborns around a fire, A careless cold infinity in every vast direction. Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone"
Gravity pulls Earth and the other planets around the energizing Sun in an otherwise inhospitable universe. Earth is the only planet in our solar system's circumstellar habitable zone, orbiting at the "just right, not too hot, not too cold" distance from the Sun. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_habitable_zone
"She has a tale to tell, From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast, Enter LUCA"
In astronomy, stellar nurseries are the birthplaces of stars: they nurse stars Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_formation#Stellar_nurseries
Poetically, our solar system is another "stellar nursery," in which a star is the nurse, caring for and warming a planet of 'newborns,' early carbon-based life. "Feast" evokes the incorporation of plentiful chemical building blocks into rudimentary life forms. "LUCA" stands for "Last universal common ancestor," the one single organism from which all other presently existing life on Earth descended. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_universal_ancestor
"The tapestry of chemistry is a writing in the garden, Leading us to the mother of all"
The periodic table of elements does look like a sort of patchwork tapestry, but this can go further. The historical function of tapestries was as "nomadic murals," pictographical histories which moving people could pack up and revisit wherever they went. The "writing in the garden," in nature, is not only the stone murals left by dead animals in the form of fossils, but is also this chemical writing that encodes the relatively nomadic DNA molecule with the instructions for life. The scientific investigation of this information leads us back to LUCA, and further. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapestry#Function
"We are one, We are a universe,"
This is the natural conclusion to draw from the fact that life shares common origin, that all life is built with the same blocks, and that all life on Earth is interdependent (gaia hypothesis). The multiplicity of beings on Earth are one, just as the cells in a body are one.
"Forebears of what will be Scions of the Devonian sea."
The Devonian geologic time period marked the first significant, rapid diversification of life (and the more well-known Cambrian explosion is another of these 'adaptive radiation' events). It was during the Devonian that the 'higher plants' appeared and blanketed the continents with forests. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devonian
. The word "scion" refers to a shoot of a plant cut for grafting, and is also used to denote a descendent of a notable family. Both meanings apply.
"Aeons pass, Writing the tale of us all. A day-to-day new opening For the greatest show on Earth"
Evolutionary adaptation is written in the DNA and as fossils in the rocks, and is ongoing. Species die, diversifiy and delineate. Every day is different, every day something changes.
"Ion channels welcoming the outside world To the stuff of stars"
Ion channels are found in the membranes of all cells, controlling the flow of energy through the cells. The stuff of stars is all the physical matter we're made of. So it's the ion channels, guiding enery, which allow living bodies to interact with the rest of the world by exchanging energy with it. "Stuff of stars" is surely a Sagan reference: "The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff." For fun: ruclips.net/video/XGK84Poeynk/видео.html
"Bedding the tree of a biological holy, Enter life"
The bed of a tree is the nutrient-rich soil from which it grows, a soil made of dead things. The "tree of a biological holy" is probably the tree of life en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_of_life_(biology)
. This line refers to the "holy" legendary tree of everlasting life but also means the conceptual, branching family tree of all life, whose bed consists of all deceased beings (in a more literal sense), or all extinct ancestral species (in a more abstract sense). This is thematically linked with the song "Alpenglow."
"We are here to care for the garden, The wonder of birth Of every form most beautiful"
"We" could be human beings tasked with acting as nature's stewards, garden of eden style, but that's not chronological -- human beings haven't quite appeared in the song yet. "We" could instead be all of life itself, in a gaia-philosophy sense, which posits that life creates environments ever more hospitable to more life. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_philosophy
Or maybe it's a combination of these two thoughts: life eventually creates an environment suitable for the development of consiously acting, thinking human stewards.
[Part 3: The Toolmaker]
"After a billion years, The show is still here. Not a single one of your fathers died young."
Every single one of a given person's ancestors, male and female, lived past puberty at least. But "fathers" evokes "forefathers," which has a nicer storytelling ring to it than "parents."
"The handy travelers Out of Africa Little Lucy of the Afar"
Handymen are good with tools; travelers posessing hands rather than forefeet walk upright. Hominids originated in Africa and spread to the rest of the world from there. Lucy is a particular specimen of the Australopithecus, one of many "missing links" between modern humans and nonhuman ancestors.
Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_(Australopithecus)
"Gave birth to fantasy, To idolatry, To self-destructive weaponry. Enter the God of gaps Deep within the past. Atavistic dread of the hunted!"
The brain grows, consciousness and creativity along with it. Atavism is the tendency to revert to ancestral type, an evolutionary throwback. Fight-or-flight instincts that helped human ancestors survive have now been creatively projected onto the world to both explain it (origins, meaning, suffering) and gain security in it (bargaining through sacrifice). These are the roots of theism.
Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atavism
"Enter Ionia, the cradle of thought, The architecture of understanding. The human lust to feel so exceptional, To rule the Earth"
Nomadic people develop agriculture and settle down into civilizations. The word "architecture" is at once both literal and figurative. The efficiency of civilization graces people with free time to do more than just feed themselves. They develop rich cultural traditions, arts and philosophies, much of which are deeply influenced by how different humans now are from all the rest of life.
"Hunger for shiny rocks, For giant mushroom clouds, The will to do as you'd be done by."
Shiny rocks are wealth: gold, precious stones, jewels, and later uranium which leads to the nuclear arms race. The golden rule -- "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" -- is a coin with a dark side: "an eye for an eye," revenge. This ensures the "MAD"ness of mutually assured destruction. Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_assured_destruction
"Enter history, the grand finale. Enter ratkind."
"Ratkind" comes from Richard Dawkins' book "The Ancestor's Tale." Dawkins imagines a post-apocalyptic world in which rodents feast on the remnants of humanity (and humanity's garbage). The rat population explodes, and then as they exhaust these resources they turn on one another for food. As a consequence of natural selection, the rats diverge into new carnivorous and herbivorous species, and perhaps, eventually, a specices of rodent whose intelligence rivals that of humans. This is "ratkind." Https://iberianature.com/wildworld/tag/ratkind/
"Man, he took his time in the sun, Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand."
From William Blake: "To see a World in a Grain of Sand, And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour." ...And the story of the planet in 24 minutes. Not bad.
"He gave birth to poetry, But one day'll cease to be. Greet the last light of the library"
A bittersweet redundancy: poetry with library, the last light with ceasing to be. Reminiscent of Elan: "Be the first to greet the morn [...] Travel with great élan, dance a jig at the funeral."
"We were here!"
Who else is going to vote for this song's inclusion on the next Voyager golden record, if there'll ever be one?
I want to beam this song into space forever.
This is the best RUclips reaction I have ever seen. Major kudos to you!
My interpetation of "The cosmic law of gravity pulls the newborns around the fire". is that the newborns is the solarsystems planets that is cirkeling the sun (the fire) by gravity.
It's probably the best thing I've ever seen. The end always tears me up.
@@Anders_Eriksson I totally agree with you. I'll correct it to include the other planets.
Me too. We were here!!!!
Thank you for the information and everyone joining us on this journey. We love the comments and community. We love learning these details as part of the ride. We do this for fun and to hang out so thank you.
Absolutely Love This!
This wouldn't be possible without Kai on drums (The Human Metronome)..Troy..Emmpu..
Tuomas..Floor..and Marko...
No one can sing AND play that bass like him..
Stars aligned for this group at this time! Fun Reaction! 👊
Be well!
Good job ! Great reaction !!!
Glad you enjoyed
Thanks for your great reaction 😁👍Nightwish rules!!❤❤
Thank you too!
This performance of this song kicks me in the gut every time that I hear it
Its amazing
Really going to enjoy watching you lose your minds on this one😁😁
Not much to loose
I've always loved Dawkins' words and wanted them to be played at my funeral. Now I have some awesome, epic music to go with it!
Dear god,your intro takes me back to my youth😊👍
Glad to hear that
The striking outfit of Floor in the Tampere concert makes the difference, gives it a tiny bit more umpfh than the other ones;-) Just kidding: I admire this band for it's courage and dedication beside the fun they have on stage. Wish you succes this weekend.
I read that the pattern design of her dress is a mix of the DNA double helix so appropriate to the GSOE track , and the colours of the Finish Flag : if that’s correct it’s just another example of their craft and attention to detail.
On a Production standpoint this version gets an S+ and musicality an S. On the Wembley version their Musicality is an S+ and production is an S. IMHO
@@antonylacroix6475 Few people pick up on the Finish coloured double helix! Both Floor and
Tuomas wanted to be biologists when they were kids!
@TheThamesmen I’ve seen many reactions to this song, and yet I admire every time not only the band’s making, but the background pictures and videos. Amazing. The whole band is also amazing, there is no bad link in it, ever. The enthusiasm with which Nightwish performs and plays music and sings is admirable.
Thank you for responding to the splendor of the song. I've liked you since yours first NW reaction came out, thank you 🙏💜
I can not listen to this piece of ART witout sheding tears ❤
I wonder how I must look to all the other people on the buss right now.
Amazing that a band can touch emotions so deep. Peace
Well, this reaction got you a new subscriber. Not only the evolution story of mindkind, but also of humankind through music - Tuomas managed to sneak it in: early tribal drumming and chanting can be heard. Followed by throat singing and a famous Bach snippet. A rocket blast sets off the Modern Age and a banjo depicting country music. Then Metalica unmistakable main riff from Enter Sandman followed by a short measure of techno or electronic music.
Welcome and thanks for notes. Going to go listen again more carefully to that section now
@@TheThamesmen And Tuomas also played Mozart during that section as well.
You’ll love this one lads. It’s epic in the true sense of the word
Cool
Even after watching this over and over the ending still makes me emotional and gives me goosebumps...yes, we are so privileged to be here!
It was an amazing track and so glad we got to cover it
Outstanding gentlemen… simply outstanding. And thank you for sharing this experience with us. Nightwish is just an amazing phenomenon. 👍🏻🤘🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey guys, really do enjoy your reactions. You are really respectful of all the artists you watch and you can tell you really love music.
Now to this reaction...awesome. Not a bad band, ha. Came across Nightwish in April last year, and they have been responsible for getting me through 251 days of lockdown (Melbourne, the most locked down city in the world). Hope this journey continues for you. They really don't have a bad song! How many bands can keep you captivated in a 20+ min song!
well said Rahul and I hope your lockdown ends soon. Be well and look after yourself.
Tool, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Supertramp…….., Nightwish. Pretty rarified air……..
Nightwish Army UK popping in ... love the reaction guys ....the uk version has richard himself on stage.
Will watch soon. Be well
Excellent, the end stayed! Your reactions are gold, btw!
Thank you. Of course we stuck around to the end we had heard it was worth the wait and it was
@@TheThamesmen Not all do....Killing the meaning of it all.
Pure quality with you guys. Cheers from Mexico
WE ARE HERE, waitinggggggg
GGGREAT!
Outstanding reaction. Please consider reacting tosome songs from their latest album. I highly recommend Shoemaker's lyric video. Incredible song that I think is Nightwish's fourth masterpeice.
Noted and we wish you well
Master piece....amazing...beautiful🤘
Thank you very much!
Those fireworks in the beginning represent the big bang/creation of the universe.
Wembley is also very very special for a couple reasons. You should def do that one as well.
Ahhhhh... Did you know the phrase Big Bang was created by someone who thought it was not real and just joked "oh so you think we started from a big bang?" Now there's bloody songs mocking him!
GREAT REACTION 👍👍👌👌💗💗
And yess...please do the Wembley version also, overall even better.
Kind regards from the Netherlands ❤❤
Thank you! Will do!
I am but a simple man.
I see Nightwish, I click..
🤷
4.6billions years ago was the creation of earth. There been stars around for billion of years already by then. Oh and great react!
Mind blown
It is beautiful, makes me want to cry every time. I LOVE Tuomas, what a genius. You might want to watch one that Richard Dawkins is personally there. I don’t remember where, but guessing in Britain. He says his part on the stage at the end. The fans loved seeing him. Thanks for this one!
Be well and have a fab time off. Cheers Alex and George
nightwish ( tuomas )have amazing talent to make intelligent songs to sound hit songs,just like this masterpiece. thanx to great reaction like always and prepare to hear this song when they come usa, it´s in they set list :) have great day and soon new week there.
Thanks for listening
Thank you for doing the "right" version!!
I guess it was hard to resist doing the Wembley version with Richard Dawkins.
I hope you check that show out as well but I'm really happy you reacted to Tampere! Thank You!
Much Love 💙💛💙
Thank you so much for being with us we really enjoyed it, we found it thrilling
*Dawkins
@@damianvc31 Autocorrect and a fast finger made that happen 😂
Thank you for sharing your experience. ❤
(They also credited their bus drivers) 😂❤
I hear the evolution of music in this song as well. You hear a harpsichord, banjo, the whistle and the well known tribute to the “Enter Sandman “ riff. 🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You're welcome 😊
My favourite song. You’ll probably need to listen to it a dozen times or so to get all the nuances in the composition and the lyrics.
Probably!
Great reaction!
Thank you!! 😁
Funny guys :) Greetings from Finland
Hello Finland. Thank you
Something to point out is that in the middle of Toolmaker there is a display of the evolution of music, although not all parts are easy to hear in the live version. There's tribal drumming and singing, a Gregorian chant, Minuet in G Minor, a banjo representing folk music, the riff from Enter Sandman, and then some modern dance music leading directly into the "chorus" of the Toolmaker movement. I may have forgotten something in there as I'm just taking it by memory.
Thats cool!
I love this part soooo much, especially Emppu playin' Enter Sandman riff, just watch him it's so good (in the Wembley version)
Every time i see this performance i get teary eyed at the "We were here" part, thinking what an amazing piece the keyboardist Tuomas has written here, and trying to imagine myself in his shoes, standing behind that keyboard with my fellow bandmates screaming "we were here" from the top of their lungs together with a crowd like that. It must be such an amazing, absurd, emotional and intense feeling. I bet he is pretty used to it by now but non the less, it must at least be inspirational for him.
A truly powerful moment. I am not sure you could get used to that
Hi again from UK - blimey you are going for the big one !!! Right version at Tampere IMO - can’t wait to join you on the journey , it will be epic - (remember to keep watching right through as the end credits scroll)
Fingers crossed!
In that prior state no one is lost. All are accounted for. There is no fear but fear itself. The unkown is our family. It is where we came from.
It's "Poet and the Pendulum" you need to be prepared for, Knowing the back story is a must. Wembley is the best one. There is a version with lyrics, which helps.
Got it. Thanks
Excellent!!!
Many thanks!
Great reaction guys ! .. greets from the Netherlands .. Floor-country :-)
And what a fine country. Thanks for being here
Great reaction guys!
Thanks!!
Also Tuomas is a Jedi, no matter what version you like, the results are still the same!!! Mind Blown!!!!🤯🤯🤯
