Tuomas is hands down one of the greatest composers of our time.
was
IS isn't spelled with a was, so I fixed your typo
Tantalize YES HE IS !!!
He and Tobias Sammet (Edguy, Avantasia) seriously need to collaborate sometime. The result would be pure magic.
Hands down indeed!
My precious Mum passed away tonight after battling with Diabetes and Dementia. The words of this song are so beautiful and poignant. I can't stop playing it.
I don't think anybody could make such a song without experiencing a close person suffering from dementia. I've lost my father from Alzheimer's disease a year ago and I am sure he would exactly express himself with this lyrics if he could. Thank you Auri and thank you Tuomas, the song is both sad and healing for me.
This played in the car on shuffle on the way back from the animal hospital the first time I had to have one of my cats put to sleep, and it was unexpectedly comforting.
I sing this song sometimes in memory of my cats that have become house guardians. I always burst into tears at the end and can't continue singing. We had two elder cats pass within months of each other, stroke took one and cancer took the other.
Tuomas never disappoints me! I think everyone should read his lyrics, besides listening to his music in itself. They are proper poems, never banal and always with a magical athmosphere. The rest of this album will surprise me, I'm sure!❤
Erynith Mawen tuomas and Tobias sammett are my favourite composers!
Tuomas is one of the greatest composers of all time! But his lyrics are laughable at best and make no sense at all. Probably the worst (after those of Sabaton) in the metal genre.
CharlesOffdensen they have sense to me, actually
What is the meaning of While your lips are still red or Elan for example? The sentences itself are just... wrong. It's like a madman talking... Or Tuomas just doesn't understand proper English.
I couldn't agree more.
Tuomas can do whatever he wants, he will always do unbelievably beautiful music 😍 he is the most talented man in music of all time
yeah
THE MEANING OF THIS SONG IS:
The acceptance of death in peace as a natural thing, without fear, with curiosity about what’s in the other side: I wish they play this song the day I die.
This song heavily reminds me of the theme behind Meadows of Heaven.
@@isaiahwelch8066 Meadows of heaven is about a lost childhood and looking back afaik, so it's kind of the opposite. But opposites still have in common that they are opposite :)
No curiosity here, it will be the same for me as the 13.8 billions years before I was born, Nothing! WE WERE HERE is the key here, this is the life we get and to make the best out of it. As someone has said "to die with no regrets".
Me...I agree to all of your statements. The song has all of them in it
@Julia Lückemeyer We can't be 100% certain, but there is plenty of evidence supporting it. Everything from our conscious "self" is tied to some part of the brain. When our brains shut down, even just in part (when we enter dreamless sleep or undergo general anaesthesia for example), there is no consciousness anymore that experiences anything. So there would need to be _some_ weird thing external to our brains that would continue - but if there is, then why doesn't it "do" anything, why is there nothing experiencing anything while our brains are shut down like during dreamless sleep?
It is very strange!! that no one is talking about the legendary acting performance of actor ( NICHOLAS MINNS ) in this video clip
Johanna Kurkela has so beautiful voice, she should be worldwide known pop star.
Ela já é conhecida mundialmente
Tuomas Holopainen is a genius! I’ve always thought that and still do.
not anymore
MrZarewna Agreed
@@babatoa Let me guess, after Tarja left the band eh?
@@TerranigmaQuintet after troy joined*
@@babatoa Troy is amazing. What's your problem with him?
Its not Nightwish. Troy even said that whoever expected metal is wrong here. Its a great song, calming, with great instruments and an awesome voice from Johanna. i am totally preoordering this.
Anyone who understands what Metal is all about will also immediately understand why this song is Metal as hell. Metal is not about guitars, drums and screaming. It's about the freedom to do what the f**k you want and not having to adhere to expectations.
The musicians of Auri and even Nightwish do not make metal, they make music.
Eluarelon : really ! I guess the definition of metal has changed about 30 times then ! that’s why I say who cares about what they call it long as it sounds good to the ears that listen to it ! people need to quit arguing over labels that’s what’s wrong with society now love it and enjoy it that’s all😊
It's not Nightwish, but as a long time Nightwish fan, I believe that anyone who loves Nightwish would love Auri too. The sound similar to Nightwish's softer songs (The Islander, Turn Loose the Mermaids, The Crow, The Owl and The Dove, etc.)
Both have unique and beautiful sounds in different ways.
@@Eluarelon I agree with you. Most of the people thinks otherwise, even wikipedia disagree with us by giving its point of view about the history of metal and not nowadays meaning of metal, but as I'm always listening to metal bands I understand that the concept of metal isn't synonymous with guitar distortion/ drums / screams, it's far beyond.
Oh My!!! This song and this ACTOR!! So much love!!
Tuomas alone can pass through something mystic, it's different when he writes for Nightwish but equal awesome. Thank you Tuomas
Agree !
Okay, this might not be what many were expecting but I really like it. I absolutely love Johanna Kurkela’s voice, and there’s something so calming and tranquil about the song. It’s nice to have something different to listen to from time to time.
It's like the Celtic Nightwish songs without the element of feeling like it needs to apologetic for not being metal.
I in no way expected anything metal. Those who have heard LTS know what I mean.
Wow, this song brought me to tears. Reminded me of those I've lost. How it must feel to pass on, to something new. You always know it will come, but you don't want to leave everyone you love.
This voice of Johanna....unbelievable....
I love how it's so easy to see not only Tuomas' but also Troy and Johanna's imprints on this. Like their individual, personal styles match so well together. Loving Auri so far.
I'm impressed by the dancer/actor. He's really intriguing.
we must be really lucky people to be able to listen , understand and feel this kind of music
Kvothe and Patrick Rothfuss are very proud.
I literally came here and hoped to see comments like this. Glad to see Kingkiller's fans. Auri is such a lovely girl... and band ;)
He needs to make as much projects as possible. Greatest composer. He has a lot to say the world
This song evokes so much feelings. I would like to go this place in the song
no you don't
The video perfectly matches the music..........both are EPIC! LOVE IT!
TH has a gift! He writes the music of a cool Summer breeze blowing through heather and fallen flower petals, the lapping of waves on a stoney shore, and the rhythm of the Earth's movements. He creates the music of melancholy, hope, determination, silent longing. The man is a true artist! Can't wait for more!
37.5k views... This is so underrated. If this was your average American Pop or Rap artist, it would have 10 million by now.
Visual art mixed with a beautiful song... I really love it... congratulations and thank you Tuomas for your magic.
Mother earth, beautiful song
This is a kind of song i can play anywhere and not bother anyone and still the same tuomas style, i truly love it! it's a calming and magic sound.
This song is amazing, even if is not metal it’s totally Tuomas’ touch...and this message about getting older is so beautiful
My uncle just passed away due to Covid, this song makes me think of him and I cry like a baby everytime a listen to it. I will tattoo his name on my hand and some of the lines from these lyrics.
Very intense and soul touching. A great metaphore and perfectly matching video, lyrics and sounds. I had the feeling of being transported out of the world while listening to it. I felt in peace. Thank you Auri.
I don't know how Tuomas does it but his music touches me on such a deep level that I can't help but either smile from one ear to the other or I have tears in my eyes or it's both at the same time :D
Since the first time I had listened to this song... I could not stop thinking about it and listen to over and over and over again. Then I heard the full album, each song was a different good feeling, so I am now in love... Great Toumas, great Johana... Cheersssssss 🤘🏾
Beautiful vocals!! Great job to Johanna!!
Tuomas is greatest composer of all times!!! -
This song is so different, but it has the soul of Tuomas! It’s like: turn loose the mermaid ultimate version.
As we know , Holopainen is very autobiographical and with this song he says "Goodbye" to his youth. Melodic and little sad song. Great!)
I agree with your opinion. I am as old as Tuomas and I can say to myself: "goodnight to an old soul, goodbye to life once lived" Maybe crisis of middle age
I agree with your opinion. I am as old as Tuomas and I can say to myself: "goodnight to an old soul, goodbye to life once lived" Maybe crisis of middle age
She has a soft and beautiful voice. Nice songs.
Night 13 is a masterpiece, a history of something I've got into for a while... I'd like to believe in that as reality.
Goodness, Another band to fall in love with. Thank you Toumas for giving us another great band. You are truly a great person and we are honered to have you in flesh. ❤
Thank you so mutch 💚 Now i know.........💚
I cant believe I just found out about this band....amazing.
tears, tears of all sorts, thank you
I've been listening to this loads for the last few days... When all the harmonies come in near the end, soooo so good! Defo looking forward to hearing more.
Superbe, Tuomas Holopainen nous régale une fois de plus avec son talent.
Absolutely stunning. Looking forward to the whole album.
I'm surprise to see that everybody didn't understand the video ! I through that she is absolutly perfect with the lyrics ! A beautiful story about a soul who left her "life once lived" a beautiful "GoodNight for an old Soul" ! I could mistake but I'msure that is question of Soul/reincarnation !
Mélanie Guérin based on some things thuomas says on interviews i dont think he follows that believe. but i get it a bit on that way too :) it fits well in many interpretations
It sure is intersting how people look at the same thing and see all sorts of different things! I think it's more about the feeling of revelation and regeneration, rather than reincarnation, what happens to your mind in its final moments. The theme is very close to the symphonic poem "Death And Transfiguration" by Richard Strauss. And the title suggests it, Night 13=Epiphany, nothing to do with the christian celebration on january 6th obviously, but just word play/adding mistery probably. Tuomas has said that the song is uplifting, not sad to him.
Well, I agree with you: I think it's quite obvious it's about reincarnation. First, being born in "a bed made of a curious cloth, a pillow from a crib", with "no pain, no memory lost", "a blank slate", "a newborn mind", since we are born as babies without memories of previous lives. "This new home" is our new body/incarnation. "Younger than yesterday" means we are babies, when yesterday we were dying old people. "This is my island now, to live it once more" makes it perfectly clear in my oppinion. It's quite cool, actually: you could be listening to the song in an endless loop of birth and dead and rebirth :).
@@Francesc1983 Exactly :)
Beautiful! I love Johanna's voice
Absolutely beautiful video for an amazing song
OMG so beautiful! this song is growing on me big time!
What to say? Tuomas is a genius of a composer, Johanna’s voice is so calming and beautiful, Troy is a perfect match to this trio. I just loved this song :-)
Oh Tuomas will you ever cease to amaze me and create new Nightwishes and Ever-Dreams?
I hope your Music will never End!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Tuomas and Johanna are couple goals 😍
Will there ever be a song Tuomas makes that i won't LOVE ? He's a genius
Don't just stand in Johanna's voice or the beautiful music. Read the lyrics.
Death never seemed that bitersweet before
Thank you Tuomas for giving me the music i needed before i even knew i needed it
Will this ever not be stuck in my head? No worries if not. Thanks.
Ahhhhh it reminds me of some very early and old Nightwish acoustic demos. Tuomas never disapoint and his wife voice is so beautiful ! So calming yet so wild ! Those three are a perfect trio ! I can't wait to hear the whole album and to follow this band in the futur !
Beautiful song.
every time I hear this, I cry. And the weight is gone.
This video is so fresh, it perfectly matches the song. This video+song is a beautiful piece of art, truly breathtaking. One of best 5 minutes of my life :) And I had a shitty day, this song really cherred me up :)
Simply beautiful!
Music is so beautiful, video is amazing, and lyrics are wonderful....
Yes back to the stuff we had on the Scoorge album. I love these wibes
Beautiful
Sebastian Burgos i didnt know gay people found old homless guys beautiful. that explains why more guys hit on me these days
@@ShawnJonesHellion tf dude
Speechless.....so beautiful...the ending ...everything is just great!!!
When I was teenager, I liked Nightwish. But about over 10 years ago I started to listen Johanna Kurkela. Her solo albums 🥰 this is quite nice song from Auri.
It's like Turn loose the mermaids but from the weary traveler's point of view
What have you done?! How can I listen to anything else EVER after hearing this? So beautifully done!!
What an incredibly powerful song, with an equally powerful video... gave me chills watching this. Emotions so deep they cannot be fathomed.
I walk to the echo of stars
All around me, under me
A bed made of curious cloth
A pillow from a crib
The skies are dark, all of them
Still comforting starlight
Pouring all over this new home
High above
Younger than yesterday
I feel no pain, no memory lost
Alone yet with everything
What is this space?
Goodnight to an old soul
Goodbye to life once lived
This is my island now
To live it once more
Not long now
This time, this weightless fall
The calming mothers call
Back in time; I'm cleansed and bare
And I see the light
Now I know
They left me with a softest bed
A whitest cloth for a waiting dead
A light to pride and the frequent night
An apple for a thirsty bite
A clean slate, a newborn mind
Brightest blue, purple moon
Life once lived now understood
High above
Tonight I will make the leap
Deep down to the night unknown
That's why they put me here
They, they...
Goodnight to an old soul
Goodbye to life once lived
This is my island now
To live it once more
Not long now
This time, this weightless fall
The calming mothers call
Back in time; I'm cleansed and bare
And I see the light
Now I know
Goodnight to an old soul
Goodbye to life once lived
This is my island now
And live it once more
Not long now
This time, this weightless fall
The calming mothers call
Back in time; I'm cleansed and bare
And I see the light
Now I know
Mr Holopainen succeeds in making me musically happy, yet again. We must share some of the same type of brain cells...
*Wow, love it soooo much!!!* Thank you guys for this awesome and lovely song! ❤ And guys, just enjoy the music and please don't compare it with Nightwish... because it isn't Nightwish! ;-)
MoonSun i would put it closer to the gathering.. to tori amos if she let her love of metal give us a metal record...
MoonSun, I love your Nightwish covers!
No, it's not Nightwish and yet you can tell it's kin. Reminds me quite a bit of some of the slower Nightwish stuff.
Thank you Daniel!!
MoonSun exactly. Anyone expecting Nightwish sound clearly was unfamiliar with Troy and Johanna's music. I'm in love with this project already :) I hear they might preform as Auri in the future
Love the song. Don’t quite understand the video, but it doesn’t piss me off. All in all. Well done
Maestro
I have not cried this much at a song in a very long time. It's so beautiful.
This is done with the thought-provoking depth of feeling that many of the compositions from 'Imaginarium' created. This is a direction I hope Tuomas, Troy and Johanna continue-perhaps adding a new chapter and life to the Nightwish legacy.
Johanna has the voice of an angel, great song.
Tuomas is the real deal. This is gonna be fantastic! I can't wait!
I am definitely in love with AURI ♡♡♡♡♡
It seemed like Tuomas wanted to branch in this direction of music when hiring Anette. Several songs from her era sounded extremely similar to this both in vocal and musical style.
Agree with you. I was about to say that. Despite their differences (between Tuomas and Annete), their work was superb. I hope both of them can read this and realized how much I appreciate their work.
This is the kind of music that it seems like he actually wants to write.
It is so great! I'm waiting for it!!
This song is so soothing, love it!
Pure work of art
Heart is cracking, eyes leaking.
Thank you
Enchanting and strange video!
Such a beautiful song. It has a haunting, gentle strength to it that you don’t often find in music. Not Nightwish, but stunning nonetheless ❤️
You just described the amazing, surprising, power of Johanna, the singer. It' the power of comfort. Amongst other things.
Did you know this is the wife of Tuomas?
Beautiful.
Wow.
I see a lot of people didn’t really liked the video but personally it almost made me cry and I’m still not sure why...
Thank you Tuomas! I can’t wait for the full album (I already think this better than EFMB, lol)
Same was almost in tears when watching it for the first time.
to understand this you`ll have to reflect your lived life and Feel your gathered exprience and think about your constructed values about living as a human.
Markku Yli-Alho
You are so right you took the words right out of my mouth, because I didn’t know how I could put my emotions in words
Thank you for that and please please please please everyone, don’t start to compare with Nightwish Tarja Anette Floor and so one....
And if you’re listening really listening to this songtext , What’s the meaning of this, I have the feeling that
my friend here Marccu understands it like I do
And it’s such a wonderful wonderful great fantastic song by the way
My god this is beautiful, love it.
einfach zum dahin schmelzen und träumen
Listened to this. Straight to pre order. Beautiful sound.
Ok. I'm hooked.
The best secular description of death so far... So beautiful!!!!!
OMG!!! I love it!!
❤❤❤
Brilliant !
Been released 2 months still as beautiful sounding as 1st time I heard it.
