That fill by Kai on "on these strange islands" whilst doing 16s on the double kick is utterly ridiculous. My mind will never fathom how a human is able to do that
His steadiness with his double kick while doing fills and just his ride work whilst doing that double kick is so impressive.
This is another Tuomas Holopainen masterpiece. He only keeps on getting better as his talent and vision matures. Absolutely stunning. This composition is as deep as the Marianas Trench and has more layers than a baklava.
Happy Birthday, Chase. Thank you for being a true supporter of Nightwish.
Happy BDay, Chase... from Austria-Nightwish-Army!
You are - for me - the best NIGHTWISH-reactor. Competent, smart and polite - Thx 4 all your efforts 🙂
How lucky are we to be alive at the same time as Nightwish.
Happy Birthday 🎂 ❤
Today there was a pre listening session in Helsinki in a cinema Theatre. Listening to this amazing album in a movie theater was amazing. Floors singing is absolutely stunning, the last song and video had me in tears. How this album stars with classical music is amazing.
Happy Birthday to you, dear Chase. NW takes me on life trips…”Let it be, retiree, sail carefree… Sail and seek…your story.” Love to you and B.
Nightwish have polarized fans and critics on every single album since Dark Passion Play - never listen to what a few loudmouthed opinions try to tell you lol. Especially since the popularity of reaction videos exploded during the pandemic, so did the fan base as the Floor's stratospheric vocals in their live performances brought in a new era of mainstream audiences. Because the music of Nightwish has such universal appeal, the new fandom became enamoured with their live videos only. Many newer fans insist that their live versions are better than the studio recordings, and have not even taken to dive into their groundbreaking symphonic production to take in all the nuances and intricacies of the exquisite London orchestra and choir. Nightwish albums are played by an 100 piece ensemble, not just the 6-piece band.
TL;DR - Floor did her job too well in drawing new fans, but they forgot to pay attention to the whole picture of NW. If you claim to be a fan but dismiss the patience to listen what they truly are sonically, beyond their live re-arrangements, then - "yours is an empty hope".
The music is great. The mixing is shocking.
@@shorey66 Thank you for proving his point.
It’s my birthday too, happy birthday! I just went and heard the whole ambum in a preview listening and met Kai. ❤
Wow,great,happy birthday
I Kai fangirled the whole way through the album he also carried me through HN
Ooooooh i was waiting for Chase to react to this!!!!!!
Happy birthday Chase and thank you for this reaction! I can't get enough of this masterpiece of a song.
Happy birthday from France, Chase!
Thank you for your reaction, and the underlying message of patience and quietness, of thankfulness for having new music coming out! such a nice change in this ever-running world…
Have a damn good birthday!
I've listened the whole album now. It's a Masterpiece of symphonic prog metal. 😎🤘
While listening to the whole album yesterday evening I couldn't stop saying "Wow", "Beautiful" etc. I especially love the duets of Floor and Troy (mainly in Sway and Lanternlight), but - as you said before - the whole album is a masterpiece.
@@lillianekockritz2796 🤘👍
Happy Birthday, Chase🤘❤🩹😘!!!
I want to see it LIVE !!!!!!!!!!! EPIC - The symphony orchestra is fantastic . MASTERPIECE!
Been checking RUclips every 20 minutes for a week waiting for this. Happy Birthday bud !🎉
Me too like from week
Finnaly a real good classic Nightwish song. I was afraid the new album would go in a wrong direction.
And btw, your Nightwish reactions from the beginning was the reason I started to follow you. And your still one of my favourite reactors.
So happy Birthday, I hope you have a damn good day.
Finally?
Congratulations Chase! It maybe come a day to late, but getting a Nightwish album is one hell of a birthday gift!
I've been checking RUclips every day at least two times since the release of the song, waiting for your reaction. Thank you and I Wish you all the happines your heart could take. Happy Birthday.
Congratulations dear Chase! ❤ thanks for your ever so nice reaction!
Some people don’t seem to understand that for a band to survive they have to develop and change. I don’t mean within the music industry, which would like to keep them the same, but rather to develop and grow as individual musicians, which will keep them engaged and interested. It’s a lifelong process for them. I certainly don’t want them to stop.
Preach brother! I've been saying the same thing to all the critics that keep thinking they know more than Tuomas an what he wanted to do with this album. People don't have to like it but to say that it's bad or poorly mixed is ridiculous. I can't wait for tomorrow. I'm like a kid at Christmas. Great review as always an Happy Bday mate! Cheers!🤙🤘
So right!so many experts without knowledge, Nightwish deserve our respect and Chase just said what I was thinking,he is great and one of many few I always waiting for reaction
The first single was objectively really poorly mixed, especially the cymbals and vocals. It's easy to get swept up by the hype when a band you like releases a new song, but it doesn't mean everything they do is flawless.
@@Hettmaraccording to you and some other but if that's what Tuomas wanted to do then that argument doesn't hold water. If that would be the case, all the songs would sound the same and they don't. Again, people don't have to like how it was mix but it doesn't mean it was mixed poorly. Cheers!
@@javirios9234 Well... there are many albums out there, even from prolific artists and bands, where the mixes or masters are questionable to say the least. For some of them, even the artists afterwards weren't too happy with it. It's not all Tuomas', right? There are people who do the mix and mastering, there are labels and publisher who have something to say about it....
I agree with Hettmar on the mix of Perfume. Most peolple critisize the buried voice. I criticize mostly the extreme compression of everything, which makes it a track without soul for me. And if that happens, that is a poorly mixed track.
Of course it's always subjective, if the mix is great for you.... fine. But if sounds poor for others, pls don't try to talk them out of their opinion.
Having said that, yes, the band has every right to shape their sound like they want to, and it's more than fair to let them release their full album before judging them. Still, the fan has equally every right to express their opinion, as long as it is polite.
@@DanTheSqueegeeMan I'm not trying to talk anybody of any opinion. People like what they like but I know when I hear a bad mix but in my opinion this isn't it. How many times will it be said that Floor's drowning of the voice was done on purpose. The other two singles don't do that and that is proof enough for me.
Happy Birthday Chase!! 🎉
Man, what a fantastic song! First time hearing Nightwish. Didn't know if I was going like them because I'm pretty picky but based on this will definitely listen to more.
I love Kai’s drum work on this song! For me it’s the highlight of the song! And you’re right about Nightwish. They are truly storytellers and their albums are really meant to be listened to as a whole, not necessarily singles. I’m so excited for the new album!
Great video! HADGD!
What a Masterpiece. A new classical from Nightwish
Dude! You’re a legend, doing once again justice analysing this legendary band. A combo made out of heaven!
Happy birthday dear sir!❤
Happy birthday, Chase!!! Didn't know you share a birthday with my father! And on Talk Like a Pirate Day, no less!!
Thank YOU for being here always. Saturday morning tea time wake n bakes to your Nightwish breakdowns literally saved my life, so I will be here for these in a heartbeat! Hope you make it to SF again in the future, would love to grab a drink during a Sleep Token show or some such!
Could not agree more, Nightwish is a fantastic journey.And as usual,,,great reaction.thank you.
Nightwish is what it is, they don't do things just to please someone.
You are one of the rare reactors who are same kind.
If we never meet, you still have a place in my mind and heart.

Greetings from Finland! 🤘🎶 🖤 🎸🇫🇮
Good to see you Chase to give Justice to this masterpiece. Thanks for that
Happy belated birthday Chase! I've followed you for quite awhile now, and can also happily say that I met my husband because of Nightwish. I ended up moving from the U.S. to Finland to be with him, and it has been so magical and special. It's a wonderful thing when music can bring people together, and Nightwish is one of those groups that does it like no other. Glad you're still enjoying the ride with their music, and am looking forward to many more reactions!
A Very Happy birthday To You good Sir !!!!!!!!!! I have been with you for a long time now, you are so cool, Nightwish Killing it as always !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday to you Chase.🎂
🎉🎉Happy Birth Day🎉🎉🎉 Well spoken my friend..very well spoken.👍👍👍
I agree. I trust that Tuomas and Nightwish know exactly what they are doing. Thank you!🎸🤘
Happy Birthday and all the best!
I've been listening to Nightwish since their first album, with a few "dark ages". I love that it is a journey with musical creativity, new discoveries and evolution.
I have rooms in my heart for the older songs but also for the new ones 😊
Happy Birthday Chase! Nice statement: Let them cook!! Fully agree. Like most Nightwish songs, this one had to land on me and required a few listens. Now I love it. Thank you for you stance towards their (Tuomas) way of composing and producing their music!
Happy Birthday Chase. You have been i'n "my" youtube for 4 years now. Holy crap time flies and Google knows who likes NW and who don't.
I was waiting for your reaction!!!happy birthday Chase!!!!
happy birthday chase. nightwish music like you say,can put any movie any day. thanx to great reaction and have wonderful weekend.
Dude so true! I've been a fan for 20 years and seen all the drama and criticism with each era. They do what they do to make the song feel right and they do deserve our patience and respect. Also happy birthday!
Happy birthday Chase ! 🥳
Well said, I totally agree about the respect and love for the artists!
Love this musical journey ❤❤❤
Great concert opener or closer 😁
Would be awesome live with a full orchestra and choir❣️
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
Tuomas said this song is about people we meet along the way in life, each person represent a island, or a happening in your life, and the one steering the ship, Tuomas, or maybe you.. it could be your story right, but Tuomas proberly did write it as him steering the ship. Thats just one take on it, cause Tuomas also said the song could have a triple meaning. guees it could also be taken as the journey of the band, or a 3th option. feel some imaginarium vibes here, also some melody parts reminds a bit if the NW song Sahara.. i do think its a great song, i didnt catch it at first listen, i was also pretty tired, maybe thats why, but now i get on a journey with it, sailing this ship to diffrent island, and in the end with the pipe section we go to final port, where we do not need to visit more islands.. love it!!
Happy birthday Chase from a fellow South African. You remain one of the top few musical reactors with in depth analysis of these complex but amazing Nightwish compositions
💥💥💥💥💥
Happy birthday Chase! Thank you for the great reaction and for your wise words.
Happy birthday! 😃 That part you said about being lucky to be a creator while they are making new music, was very Nightwish. Very Perfume of the timeless and Greates show on earth -vibes ❤
Late Happy Birthday.. thnx for a great reaction once more..
Looking forward to the rest of the album reaction..
Ps thnx for getting me too listen too my favorite band in a new way thnx too your break down off the songs...ds
Happy Belated Birthday Chase! 🥳🎂🍀 Hoping you had an amazing day! All the best from Germany. 😊 And thank you for this gift. Love your reactions. 😀🎶🎧
Happy Birthday! I didn't really connect with the new singles until now, but boy howdy, this one hits hard. The chorus is stuck in my head after just a couple of listens.
Happy Birthday Chase!! :) All the best and love from Germany - and thank you! You are one of the people who helped me to understand music. And one year ago, i start playing drums 🤘
Thank you for the gift! Always enjoying your reactions 😄Have a happy birthday Chase! 🥳
Happy Birthday, Chase!🥂
Thanks for the reaction to this magical song!
Greetings from Germany!
I have been waiting your reaction to this, because of your insights, but also amount of the air drumming 😁 I guess you have grown to this band already, because if this would been your very first reactions, if I remember correctly, your hands would been needing a medical care 😉
Authentic reaction is the best gift for all of us, and your face expression proved it, when this birthday present opened up after 10 seconds. It was not granny’s made woolen socks or boring designer vase, but something much more exciting 👌😄 Thank you for your reaction, …and happy birthday 🎂
Knowledgable and Genuine Reaction. 🌟
And Also Happy BD.🥂
1:26 happy birthday! 💖🔥 love your reaction 😄
Chase - young commentary starting around 14:00 is so spot on! Thank you for saying that.
I got the Album today 19th day as a preorder, unfortunately had my Calendar filled all the way up to the 9 pm local time, so just before starting to listen the whole Album and songs in order while burning the Graveyard shift hours, I did a quick peek at RUclips, saw Chase reaction and stopped the press, had to see this no matter what :) I got the excellent feeling from his Reaction, especially seeing the smile lurking in the pivotal moments, made me also very Happy!
First of all, HAPPY DAMN BIRTHDAY @ChaseCarneson!!!! For those of you just tuning in and subscribing to Chase....you have found one of the best. No one is more honest and upfront. I have seen Chase cry and I have seen him jump with joy. I have been looking forward to tomorrow for several months. This third release is like another course of a meal, that is likely to be a giant buffet cooked by a five star Michelin chef, and not the dread that so many were predicting after the first release. I love Chase's line..."let it cook". Thanks Chase and I hope you have a great day.
Happy Birthday… such a great metaphor both lyrically and musically of our journey in life (the frenetic nature of it, the highs and lows, loves gained and lost, the joys the pain, gaining friends and watching them get old and die and then facing our own mortality “freely and without fear”. Such a great song. Can’t wait till tomorrow to hear the whole album 🤘
Highly anticipated and definitely worth the wait! Thank you Chase for a wonderful reaction, I had a feeling you would love this one! Such a banger! Happy birthday, greetings and much love from Finland 🥳🤘🏻
Happy birthday Chase from Switzerland!
Was really looking forward for your reaction to this. For me it was "love at first sight", there is nothing you cannot not love about this song, a true masterpiece.
Cannot wait to get off of work to listen to the whole album.
Godspeed!
🥳 I'm 1 and a half hour late but still "happy Birthday" Chase.😉 Hope you will enjoy lot's more of good music.🤘 And yes ,they earned to do what they want to do,creating magic.😎
I have just watched your reaction and it was a honour to hear this new Nightwish track for the first time with you as I had a feeling you would love it. I watched a few people reactions to the previous releases and couldn't believe some of the things they were saying but I suppose they are entitled to their opinion. Love this track and can't wait to just sit and listen to the album.
If NW ever play this song live, I assure you it will be a blast. NW tweaks their songs here and there with small arrangements and they are much better than in their studio versions, which are already good, but many of us already know that NW live is another universe.
Happy Birthday, Chase! You got into reactions about the same time I did (as a viewer), and I've always especially loved your Nightwish reactions. I appreciate your commentary on this one! Just chill, everyone. 😎
Happy Birthday Chase. Awesome reaction. I absolutely cannot wait for your reaction to Lanternlight.
Happy birthday, Chase. All the best and thanks for all the great breakdowns.
Thanks for the reaction! And Happy Birthday, Chase!!! Hello to The Missus! Kiitos!
I have alwsys appreciated your Reactions and Breakdowns since you did Ghost Love Score Wacken 2013 . Just wanted to say Thank you Chase . Also Happy Birthday .
🤘🏻😀🤘🏻
Congrats Chase,this is a awesome song
Well said, Chase. I agree with everything you said. And also: happy birthday! 🎂 May your day be filled with love, laughter, and joy.
Thank you Chase for everything you said. Spot on! Would love to see "fans" just chill a little bit more. 😊🤘✌💙
Happy Birthday Chase! 🎂🎂🎉🎉 In a recent interview Tuomas stated "The whole band went to see "Gladiator" and the soundtrack so impressed them they decided to add a much bigger symphonic element to their music. Hans Zimmer of course!
I'm a fairly new convert to Nightwish (2years) and have listened to every track with Floor and Anette and love the way the band has evolved. I can understand why some of the fans from the early days want the band to stay as it was but real life doesn't act like that.
I said this under the video you reacted to: Nightwish might take long to release music these days, but HOLY SH!T does the wait pay off! :D
Thanks for sharing your respectful reaction to a song that for me explores themes of solitude, self-discovery, and the existential journey through life's trials. The imagery of the ocean, islands, and mariners reflects a metaphorical exploration of the human experience connecting with other individuals. The song captures the essence of navigating life’s uncertainties and finding one's place in a vast, often unwelcoming world. It suggests a longing for connection and understanding while grappling with the weight of past experiences and the isolation they can bring.
P.S. Butterflies represent transformation on all levels, claims ecotherapist Anna Cariad-Barrett: "Butterflies show us how we can go within ourselves to dissolve old forms and morph, rebuilding and evolving ourselves," she explains, noting that they show us the importance of surrender and trust "as part of the essential process of growth and renewal."
P.S.S. Happy birthday.
We waiting so long 😂❤
Happy birthday
🇫🇮❤🖤🤘Happy B'day! Thanks, great reaction ❤
Happy birthday and greets from Finland😀 just get my new Nightwish album! and it´s amazing🤩 i thing that i can`t go to sleep tonight!
And doing the thing they do is absolutely magical!❤❤❤
The end really hit me, I'm sure you noticed the nod to Ghost Love Score when the pipes came in. Absolutely gorgeous song, and happy birthday!
Happy birthday from Norway 🥳
I really love this song. It’s great! And its very Nightwish 🤘🏼
Happy birthday Chase. Loved the reaction. Your body tells it all
Cheers 🥃 to a happy Birthday, Chase! Nightwish never ceases to amaze me & your understanding of, and deep respect for, the mastery and creative process we know as Nightwish shines through! Doing anything half-assed is not in the Finnish 🇫🇮 vocabulary (yes, Floor has been “adopted”; & she is the G.O.A.T.!).
Nightwish/Tuomas does not cherish “1&2&3&4” 🎶🎵; the lyrics (message) far exceeds “my girl left me, my truck broke down and where is my damn dog!”
Let’s count our blessings; one is being here right now witnessing first hand this extraordinary brilliance 🙏 After all, some were here freezing 🧊their asses off in Siberia hunting mammoths 🦣 with spears!
Chase, thank you & cheers 🥃
At last! I've been waiting 😄
Just finished listening the album. Needs more listenings for sure, but I already think this song is my favorite.
Happy birthday Chase 🎉
Edit after watching your reaction:
I think a lot like you. Let them do their thing. I might not always like it, but I respect it nevertheless. And who am I or anyone to say that they should have done something differently.
I'm so happy about this reaction! Glad you liked it 😊
All the best, thanks for sharing this with us on your birthday 😊
Happy Birthday! I enjoyed the previous releases from the album, but this is certainly the standout so far. Splendid stuff - I adore this, and Kai in particular stands out for me. I'm an album listener, though, and I can't wait to hear the full work.
I've loved every song so far but this has become my favourite. What an amazing job again by Tuomas Holopainen!
Happy Birthday Chase! Great reaction as always. I have a few issues, particularly with the mix but I appreciate how hard it is to balance such a complex piece with so many layers.... and despite that, this is probably the best Nightwish song in a decade. Phenomenal, and I actually had the biggest smile on my face listening to this magnificence.
Happy B-day, Chase! And thank you for a delightful reaction 🙂
Happiest of birthdays to you Chase🎉🎉 so wonderful to see to joy and surprise in your face when this song started cooking😊❤
I've been waiting for your reaction to this MASTERPIECE. As usual you knocked it out the park. Thank you.
BTW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂🎉🍕🍻
Thank you🤘✌️🤘
Tuomas? All I can say is wow!!!
✌️
I was SO waiting for you to react to this one! I knew you would like it! Happy birthday!!
Happy birthday! 🙂 So far, my favourite song from the album 🥰
Hope you had a damn good birthday, Chase! You made my day watching your reaction ❤️
Happy birthday man! Your reaction at the start was pretty much the way I reacted when I first heard it. What we've all been waiting for.....some full fat Nightwish.
Happy belated birthday! I just love seeing you get excited about music
Happy Birthday dear Chase. Have a wonderful day!!! Cheers from Buenos Aires!!!
This was somerhing else nice to hear a nice sound about the new songs thank you for a great reaction and a very happy birthday
Happy Birthday Cameron, hope you have a wonderfull day with the people you love.
