Mozart, Bach, Tschaikowsky, Beethoven, Holopainen.
Tuomas is clever. Music like Mozart's or Beethoven's back then no longer resonates with most people today. So what is Tuomas doing? He creates a metal band that is actually just the cocoon for his real project. He slowly leads people back to classical music through the back door. You can see that this works in the Nightwish Army. I still know a lot about the works of Mozard, Bach, Tchaikovsky and Beethoven. But I haven't heard real classical music since school days and that was over 20 years ago. What came closest to that so far is symphonic metal and I only discovered that for myself in the last few years. What we have here in the video now comes closest to what I last heard back in school. Tuomas is just awesome. He really is the Metal Mozart. If not the reincarnation of him disguised as metal lord.
I teared up big time on Ad Astra. It has become super special to me, because it was originally released at a time when the COVID crisis was really kicking up. I am an ambulance driver and i was driving home one evening, in the dark, on the first day of total quarantine lockdow here in Italy, where some towns in particular were having the dead brought away in army trucks because there was no space to keep them anymore. I drove the ambulance along completely empty streets, listening to Ad Astra, and seeing children' drawings on the windows, saying "thank you doctors" and "all be well", and italian flags. It was sobering to no end. It hit home in a way i can hardly describe.
That Sagan speech gets me every time.
Just the first note of Ad Astra and I’m ready to start sobbing
it's super meaningful and just completely relevant in the time and crisis the world is facing.
Every single time😭
The whole thing (all of it, the whole 30 minutes). From start to finish. From the first note and word to the last one. And this (fan made music) video is magical. Perfect
@@shortstuff780 I just had an image of mother earth, The Gaia, sadly but really warmly and strong, saying: Enough. Enough. Stop.
She's been so unthinkably patient with us. But she knows.
Unbelievable that one man can compose this. He really is a genius.
Genius for sure, but that is how nearly all classical music is composed as it most often needs that singular vision. In a band of 4 or five instruments you can get away with multiple voices but when composing for 30-50+ instruments a singular vision and viewpoint is usually required, although I am sure he got a lot of advice and help with the arranging side of things. The result is cinematic and beautiful and kudos to the creator of the visuals as they are also genius. Again to hear the music and create a visual palette that seems to be what so many including Tuomas think matches perfectly is pretty cool.
Tuomas for me is light years ahead of your time... best metal composer for sure....
I have to tell my little story with this... I listen to this when I was my little dinghy (kumivene in finnish) here in Finland at the lake (we have so much of them) last summer. Beautiful sunset, couple beers and nothing but me, water, nature and this in my ears...
The whole "Human. :||: Nature." is what I think when the question "What kind of music would you send to space to be found by aliens in the distant future?" comes to my mind.
Just pure beauty this album is.

"The Life and Times of Scrooge" is AWESOMELY beautiful !
And so underrated! It's fantastic!
YES YES YES!! I really hope that Tank (and Chase too) would react to that, at least A lifetime of Adventure!! Can`t almost believe how beautiful that song is!!
@@reeilona - It's what I imagine angels singing sound like.....
35:00 This pizzicato melody is "The Hurrian Hymn to Nikkal" (1,400 BC), known as the oldest written melody of mankind. Tuomas cleaverly introduced it to this work.
Wow, i dont know it. But it is Tuomas. 🤗
Wow. So Tuomas is interested in ancient music! I was just thinking he should compose a piece featuring the playing of the Golden lyre of Ur. It's a mesmerizing instrument. If you're not familiar with it, check out Peter Pringle's RUclips videos. Please metal bands, use this magnificent instrument.
Tuomas the genius, to live in the same period, is the same as living in the same period as with Eisenstein, Mozart, Rembrandt. We are blessed with such kind of human.
OK WHO THINKS A COLAB BETWEEN TUOMAS AND HANZ ZIMMER WOULD BE IN ORDER
I like Zimmer, but i don't think he's the best Hollywood Composer. i think Ramin Dijwani (game of thrones, gears of war, prison break, westworld, iron man1, etc) is 10x better. imo.
Tuomas was once invited backstage on a Hans Zimmer concert to speak with him, he declined after a moment of contemplation, fearing meeting one of his heroes and maybe discovering that zimmer would not be the man Tuomas imagined him to be would spoil him idolzing him
i quess a "colab" would have the same effekt
but still very nice idea
@@goesman81 that's crazy.
@@shortstuff780 well its something diffrent but not crazy (iam sorry if iam a little unclear iam no native english speaker)
think of it diffrently you idols do what they do to you, because you imagine them in a certain way because you idolize them not know them as a person
what would happen if you meet you idol, and would notice a is a jerk and also not half as gifted as you thought?
jepp you would loose that idol and there for a part of you inspiration that, that idol gives you
@@shortstuff780 And both are German. Ramin half German yes, but still
The most beautiful music with the most beautiful images..so thankful to live in a world that has Tuomas and nightwish in it..
Me too. I count myself lucky to live in a world with Tuomas' writing. I would like his song "A Lifetime Of Adventure" to be played at my funeral. (Hopefully a long time from now, but still.)
One day Tuomas will be recognized as one of the greats. Give him time as he grows, give "us" time as we get to know him.
How does Cardi B get accolades and this is not even mentioned... Sad times. The brilliance of this is so evident.
Also, to those fans of Nightwish who say they don't like this album...Really??? Thank you so much for sharing this Tank.
This album Is clearly hard to proccess. It is antyhing but simple, it requiers concentration and percieving on some level. Many Nightwish fans are maybe not used to this style. So, comparing to what emotions, visuals and imaginations previous Nightwish albums brought, can ve suprised some did not find their way to this one. It took me some time too :)) This album is a mastery, but it also means Nightwish probably never gonna be the way they were. It is natural evolution (😎yeah, pun intended) but also a hard thing to acknowledge.
It's because, sadly, 50% of humans are of below average intelligence. Low-brow "music" like what you speak of appeals to those who don't need to engage their higher brain functions to process it. Something like this, on the other hand, makes you think, and many people don't want to think. That requires effort and energy, and laziness is easier. I am truly sorry if that sounds rude or inconsiderate, but it doesn't make it less true. I wish everyone understood music like this the way we do. If they did, we might not be in the crisis we are now. Too many people put too much value on what is right in front of them instead of thinking about the future beyond the end of their lives. Maybe they just can't think like that, or maybe they don't care - I don't know. All we can continue to do is to advocate for our planet and future generations the best way we know how.
This is just a beautiful work of art, Tuomas is not only a mere musician in a band. He is a Composer who deserves the respect due. Such a peaceful and emotive piece and working in Troy on the Uilleann Pipes is awesome. Don't get me started on Troy, he is a master at his craft and I appreciate how much more difficult the Uilleann Pipes are over the Great Highland Pipes (Been playing & teaching the latter for over 45 years)
The Moors really gets me, and everything that follows is a massive build up to that ending. Great to see you enjoy it, but its really one of those to lie back and close your eyes to. The narration is so on point too, and beautiful mixing. What's more metal than releasing a classical CD as part 2 of your new album?
Hallo, i am a Moore Kind. (Wietings Moor in Germany).and i love this this part so much.
Did i just miss that ? yest i did. Am i going to watch the video and enjoy every minute of it ? yes i will ! :p
I usually miss the live reactions but I most definitely watch them when I have a movement
I have the album, but this is the first time I hear the second disk. Mostly because I was not mature enough. I really enjoyed it, more so because of the attitude that you give towards all types of music. It made me realize that I should be more open, not just to music but everything. Tank you....I mean thank you for helping me grow.
What a comment!!
That is awesome to hear! Cheers, man!
Im so happy i was part of your journey though this album as much as you were mine. Im sitting here by myself in my room watching a video of a dude watching a video in his room by himself, however, there is a sense if community and shared experience. Thwnks Tank and all NW fans, who are in my life now ❤️❤️❤️
This collection was a love letter/thank you letter to Earth and nature.
My @ on every social media is an hommage to Sagan speech. The first time I heard it, I burst into tears. And then my favorite band come up with Ad Astra. Freaking onion ninjas...
yeah, the first time i heard it, i relistened to the quote about 10x. it wa just so damn amazing and touching
Every single time 😭
Tuomas said he does not care how well his music, albums, band does, he just wants to make and play music he loves. And this album feels like his baby. It feels like he writes what he wants
When I'm hiking alone, I like to have this composition on my ears and let my thoughts drift. It's amazing what you think about. Or not ;)
I always listen to this while walking through nature, everything is even more beautiful then.
You can clear your mind and forget sorrows. Just feeling love and admiration for nature on our beautiful earth.
This album, especially this side of the album really fits these times. All these quarantines and all that. My nearest forest really became my menthal health saver 😁. Also visited the forest many times while listening to this album. ❤️
It is interesting that I had this discussion with my stephfather yesterday. He is all about classical music and I remarked that composers of the caliber of Mozart and Beethoven are around even today. The reason they don't get the recognotion is because they do not make classical music like Mozart or Beethoven. Williams, Zimmer and Morricone make movie scores so good that they can reduce me to tears as I watch a movie. Tuomas just oozes skill but is 'only' a metal musician. Yoko Kanno is a god in the anime industry with her music but who cares about that, right? It isn't classical so it obviously sucks ass.
One thing I learned watching reaction channels like yours, the Charismatic voice, Julia and Chase is just how insanely talented some of these people are. I must admit that I used to be one of those people looking down on metal but no more. I may not like everything I hear but I appreciate the skill shown.
...almost forgot Ayreon. A man so insanely talented that almost nobody knows who he is.
I also agree that it’s insane more people don’t know who Arjen is.
The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck is literally a OST, only for a book and not for a movie: Tuomas is a big Scrooge McDuck fan and worked directly with Don Rosa, who invented Scrooge McDuck's character, to create this album which puts into music the stories of young, poor Scrooge leaving home in Scotland and working tirelessly for decades, traveling all over the world pursuing his dream of becoming rich. It's a surprisingly deep and beautiful succession of comic stories, carefully worked into the real world timeline (a few examples: Scrooge is friend with Geronimo, Buffalo Bill and Calamity Jane in the west; in 1912 is traveling on the Titanic when it sinks; he visits Russia to buy stuff just before the winter revolution of 1917; becomes friend with Theodore Roosevelt before he becomes US president; and of course eventually gets to Klondike for the gold rush). I assure you, having read and loved the Don Rosa stories, the music Tuomas made is absolutely perfect. If you have read the book, the music immediately brings up the mood of that specific chapter. It's amazing. Might be harder to fully appreciate without knowing the Don Rosa stories as a consequence, but still interesting.
Tuomas the epic genius, this a beautiful piece of art.....his new Auri album is done and should be out soon..
The most epic thing there ever was
You're absolutely right! Tuomas is on the same level as Williams and Zimmer. What a masterpiece!
I forgot Ramin Djawadi for the Game of Thrones soundtrack. Also amazing
@@heikokuhnemund1017 And the Westworld theme
@@Diavolo222 of course! 👍
Ramin is also one of my favorites. His work on the Pacific Rim soundtrack is also awesome.
@@TankTheTech you're right. So much good stuff 😳
Thanks for this, Tank.
I first listened to Nightwish around fifteen years ago and I didn’t only think they’re an amazing band but that Tuomas creativity is absolutely mind blowing.
For some years now I’ve been kind of away from their music, but now, thanks to you, I’m not only rediscovering their work but I just got to listen to this masterpiece.
This kind of make you feel, bittersweetly grateful for being here, for being alive, for being part of this all… It was an amazing experience.
I’m kind of sorry I missed the live, but it was still awesome.
Thanks again, Tank! See you in the next one!
How can Floor just sing "or or or or orrr" over and over and I can't stop crying. Just not human....
Aw, sad I missed the livestream. Oh well. Funny enough my bf asked to listen to this entire album today because he has Endless Forms in his car and he knows I GUSH over that album. I studied zoology and ecology before switching over to graphic design and illustration, so these two albums make me ugly cry often.
There's a deep paradox of feelings with regard to how I feel about humans and our place in the natural environment. On the one hand, it's amazing how far our technology has progressed. I mean, I'm writing to a person/people, living on the other side of the planet, having a cry over music written by another person whom we might never meet or speak to, via the internet. (the brilliant part of the internet). On the other hand, how much have we had to destroy to get to this point and how much more will be destroyed before the majority of Homo sapiens understand that we rely on functioning ecosystems for our species to continue? The rest of nature will survive without us, we are not above extinction.
(I apologize, the ecological grief of the last 2 years wears heavy on my heart. Add the devastation of the pandemic to that, misinformation, distrust in science the lot. I am equal parts heart broken and furious. For now I try to appreciate the nature that I can, while I can.)
And the world cycles on as always, Endless Forms Most Beautiful and Wonderful. We have no right to complain we should celebrate We are the lucky ones
such powerful and beautiful music that this band creates and composes i cannot wait to buy this double album such a good work of art thumbs up all across the board the time that i have willfully spent in the great outdoors talk about intellectually stimulating very awesome that Tuomas was able to create music and imagery that make you feel like your there reminds me of the atmosphere that the band bathory created with the song dragon's breath just to draw a parallel here visually stunning and quite breathtaking nice work whoever put this together ladies & gentlemen talk about shuddering before the beautiful
I always admire how raw and honest you are in your reactions, thank you for your time. And congratulations on your new family member. Greetings from Germany 👋🤟
Pip Williams is actually the person who does the orchestral arrangements for Nightwish. It’s a shame people seem to neglect him most of the time and give him the credit he deserves.
My cousin (who is from Finland like myself) actually studied music, composition and music technology in London and took classes from Pip on orchestral arrangements. My cousin even got to go with Pip to the recording sessions in London for the Life and Times of Scrooge album. I think he even got to be part of the male choir and sing on one of the tracks if I’ve understood correctly. Ironically, I’m not sure if my cousin is much of a fan of Holopainen’s music, but I’m sure it was a memorable experience nonetheless.
My cousin is making various kinds of music, from heavily electronic to dark ambient, but most of his music is actually orchestral, so those orchestration lessons with Pip have certainly been worth it.
And I absolutely agree about the composers. I put Tuomas's name up there with all the great composers of our age. He has a phenomenal talent and he should be recognised for it~
Who would expect something like this on the metal band album, but that's Tuomas! :) Great reaction as always, it was pleasure being on this album's journey with you!
How Tuomas transforms the feeling and image of nature into music reminds me of Jean Sibelius's work. These two are phenomenal Finnish composers of their time. Both are world-class artists. If Tuomas never composes for cinema/films, I feel it's a destiny unfulfilled. Through this video, I think Tuomas can reach the level of Hans Zimmer and Bear McCreary if he hasn't already."
I really didn’t know what to make of it when I first bought the album, but after seeing the video that you watched, I was completely sold. It’s not what I think the majority people would’ve expected, but it works. Tuomos deserves to be doing the scores for big films after this, his name and work should be everywhere. Auri is great, Desert Flower in particular for me. Enjoyable watch Tank. 😊
"This is wild!" No, this is genius. Tuomas is a man of vision gifted with the ability to render his ideas and understanding in way that we can comprehend.
Hi Tank.
I'm a fairly new arrival to Nightwish and to your channel. I found both by way of Elizabeth Zharoff's channel.
I just finished watching/listening to this, and I have to say I'm going to be a while gluing the bits of my mind back together. Not only is every note of every section of this pure perfection, but the way the video images are an exact match for what we're hearing are beyond belief. The choir parts really hit me in the feels, Troy's piping on the "Moors" section sends shivers up my spine, and Floor's voice (I presume it's Floor) in the Ad Astra is just.......excuse me while I collect the shards of my mind back together for about the 500th time.
Thanks so .much for this.
This song is a musical, spiritual, natural, and calming journey or experience. There’s nothing more I can say that would do it justice
Hope the family is well. Elizabeth is also great. Damn. Those pipes sways get me. Violins/cellos, bagpipes, pianos, and timpani drums are a sure-fire way to get to me to shed a tear. Like you have said before, it makes me feel home
This journey has gone by so fast. A few Nightwish songs to do after this: any song from the first two albums for Tarja but especially The Carpenter. It’s so different. Meadows of Heaven is an Anette song I highly recommend
Also for other bands,
I also recommend Savatage, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Dr. Butcher/Jon Oliva’s Pain, Chris Caffery, Machines of Grace/Circle II Circle, and Archon Angel
We live on such a beautiful planet, why are we so intent on destroying it? I’m in what would be called the twilight years of my life, and Tank, I hope and pray that your child grows and matures on a planet that is still beautiful, and doesn’t have to watch films like this to know what the world and nature was like. Bless you man.
Carl Sagan FTW!! The "Pale Blue Dot" is an extreme moment in my life! Another reason I respect both NASA and Nightwish so much! SO happy! NASA turned the craft around to take that pic! NASA was so worried that attempt would ruin the camera... God bless us all for this great snapshot of reality, from so far away! Sagan's words, very poetic.... "A mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam"... US! WE WERE HERE!
our planet is so wonderfull and this video matches the song perfectly what an amazing work to the person who did this indeed
my fave parts of this full song are moors and ofc ad astra
this is the type of song that could fit in nat geo programs or just wild life stuff
One world, one nature its all that is and we have to be care a baut it.... live nice and joy the world😊
Every morning before work I go on a 30 minute walk and listen to the Nature cd. Could not think of a better way to start my day 🙏🏻❤️
You should have a listen to Tuomas's The Life and Times of Scrooge
That's a great one. Features Tuomas' wife on vocals.
14:15
A Fishtank. Not to be confused with a fishing tank, which is the gentleman in the video when on vacation.
It's rare to hear the lead melody going through a double bass. But, it should be used more.
Also, I don't think I've ever seen images matched/timed so well with music. This is special!
Thank you Tank, you do it in one .Your Lifestream was was so good. Stay safe, and for Claire and Ingrid (what a cool Name for your Daughter). 🍸🥰from Northern Germany..
I love the whole second CD and I really gotta admit it grabbed me faster than the actual album itself did. It's epic, harmonic, got beautiful melodies - makes itself right at home in the part of my heart that beats for classical and score type music 🥰
I’ve never seen that video before. It’s really cool. Tuomas, Johanna, and Troy make up Auri.
I hope our children all get to see the world as we see in this video.
omg i just saw Corvin's Castle from Romania, Hunedoara at 34:40
You'll probably love their version of Heart Asks Pleasure First... 🤔 It was a joy to watch it like this! Thank you!
This symphony is amazing !!! All parts brings different emotions. The music talk itself. I love all different section, but as a Canadian from Quebec, I like the part "Quiet as the snow". How the piano is played so softly.... like snow falls silently in a cold winter day. I have listen to the whole disc so many time and it stil move me. Thanks for this great reaction. Cheers from Quebec !!!

"Narration by Mrs Geraldine James"
I thought that was floor.
This part 2 album & this video should be sent/broadcast into space. Any other distant travellers out there will be able to see what kind of species we actually are. The bad and the good 👽🛸🛰
What beautiful music, I plan to bury my mother to this music.
we're the lucky ones to hear this wonderous music. And I did not know there was a video to this music. Sensei music videos many thanks, they obviously feel the music in their hearts too. Anthroposcene, what actions of humans can lead to. from 46.30 cry for help, we need you all to save the earth, we know you can do it. ... big warning for us human beings, beware, it is not too late, if you want to keep all these other images real. I listen to the 2nd CD nearly every day, and this video is indeed how the music sounds like. Lucky you Tank, to pull through this CD without Ingrid disturbing you with pooping :)
I cried with you in the final part it is very very exciting 💓
just saw the vid, emotonial state anyways, great Reaction, guy love!
Thanks for taking time to react to this. You, young man, aren’t any average RUclips reactor 😄🤘.There’s a lot to digest and one needs a couple of times listening to this to really appreciate this awesome piece of art. And like you, I also can’t understand why Tuomas hasn’t been yet acknowledged more widely among the greatest contemporary composers.
By the way, if you enjoy epic music, another Finnish composer Antti Martikainen is yet another hidden gem and definitely worth checking out.
Thanks for the tip! I've never heard of Antti Martikainen.
Dude. Tank you rule. Tuamos is indeed an absolute genius. This CD is about Tuomas' unbelievable ability, not about who said what etc
I think he istn't recognized as a great composer because he takes a more indirect? aproach, he writes everything on keyboard tracks, and then he gives this tracks to Pip Williams and he translates this music into sheet music for each of the individual instruments in the orchestra, so is not Tuomas who composes the full extent of the music, but undoubtedly he is the maker of all this symphonies.
My opinion is that you don't need imagery at all.. just close your eyes Tuomas will teleport you.. you can see it, feel it, taste it, smell it.. Perfection.
That first tune... gives me crazy chills! Love it!
Tank: I'm not going to pause on this one lets just sit through it then talk.
Tanks Computer: Ha Ha we'll see about that.
I think Tuomas is a legend and am not trying to take anything away from him, however if this is like past NW Albums I believe Pip Williams does the actual orchestral composition. It is my understanding from some interviews with Tuomas that he writes the lyrics and the bands music and kind of explains what he wants and then Pip starts writing the orchestral parts. I believe Tuomas has a "natural ear" for music he knows what he wants it to sound like but didn't have enough background in music theory or arrangement to write for the whole orchestra and get it to come out the way it sounds "in his head". I think he can tell Mr. Williams their should be a string section here doing something like this and play something on his keyboards and Pip can "translate" Tuomas vision into a score for the orchestra. This is at least the way I thought it was but it has been 20 years so who knows if this is how it still goes, if it ever did.
I did check the Album cover and curiously while Pip is credited with arranging, orchestrating and directing the orchestra & choir (except on How's the Heart, Tribal, & Procession). Oddly the orchestra was The Pale Blue Orchestra. I believe with that since the album Once that the London Session Orchestra / London Philharmonic Orchestra has performed on their albums.
I think you might have a wrong impression here. My understanding is that Tuomas composes all the music (and has always composed) and make the demos for the orchestra. Pip Williams does the arrangement for the orchestra.
Pip Williams's own wors:
"My role with Nightwish is that of orchestral arranger and coordinator. I transcribe Tuomas’s ideas for the orchestra and choir and organize the London sessions, carefully liaising with Tuomas, the orchestral contractor (Isobel Griffiths), the studio, the conductor (James Shearman) and the music copyist/librarian (Richard Ihnatowicz). While I transcribe Tuomas’s parts for the arrangements, I have freedom to adapt and add my own ideas to the scores. I can make suggestions regarding the line-up and suggest possible changes."
Arrangement might be a lot of work, and it requires a lot of knowledge, but it's not the same thing as composing. Williams tells that he is transcribing - so Tuomas composes, Pip Williams makes arrangements, makes it work for the orchestra.
If Tuomas would be only saying things like "I want a string section here", I don't think Pip Williams would be using words "transcribing" or "arranging". He would say that he composes for Nightwish, not Tuomas.
Wow! It touches your soul!
This music and imagery is so humbling. Personal struggles are insignificant.(not meaning they are, but when looking at the pale blue dot they are which for me makes it different when thinking about it).As you say, the chances that we are here instead of not being here. Our time is short. I want to make the best of it, for me, for the world. Why bitch at stuff if we can marvel at so many things. Care for the world, even little things count. The world is awesome.
Extraordinary stuff, Tuomas is a quite staggering musical talent 🤘
The Ad Astra part is soo familiar somewhere. I just don't know from where. Anyway, it was so beautiful.
Beautiful piece of music . Actually i listened this CD yesterday night before sleep. And 100% agree this reaction was for music only, although i love Floor to the moon and back. Thank you for this Reaction. Timo Arula
This is so tremendously beautiful and amazing. The music along with the images is incredbly moving to me. Everytime I hear it🌲🌱🌏🌎🌍🌌💙💚
I'm so happy I heard (watched) the song here first. Hurraa!
And hey, don't drop the baby. I did once. I forget if it was the first or the second, but not from high. She is fine now, really.
Lots of love from Finland!
First time I've seen the videos of the 2nd cd.. Floor said it was nice thing to do on Friday nights that's talking on RUclips to us Floor Funds.
How Great and beautiful our planet is??? Lets think about it.....And how great band Nightwish really are.
Listening to this again brought to mind the artist Mortiis. His albums Crypt of the Wizard and Stargate have surely been an influence on Nightwish. If you take a listen you will hopefully see where I'm coming from. On another note Nightwish did an orchestral version of Once and Epica have in the past released orchestral only versions of their work.
Mortis of dimming Borgir fame
Tuomas has a way of touching one's most raw parts of thr soul, mind and heart, doesnt he?
I drop his name everywhere I can, even though I'm pretty sure he really doesn't mind, and mainly wants to make music. He had his times of being a jerk, but he really is a sweet guy. as far as him being known here in the US, well, outside the artists that write their own, there are maybe 3 people that write every single pop song out there. Can you imagine their reaction, if we actually uplifted this kind of composer. They'd probably trip out. heh So glad you did this :) I really feel he is taking classical music to a level where more will be curious about it and enjoy it. Wish I'd had it when I was little, for sure.
And I totally agree with you Tank! Tuomas IS one of the big ones through history! He IS the 20th century Beethoven!
Tank, you could make a similar reaction with the entire disc "Music Inspired by the Life and Times of Scrooges" from Tuomas Holopainen. It's also mainly instrumental and it's really good
So sorry I missed the live stream on this one, I was really looking forward to it and enjoyed watching later, Thx Tank.
Thanks Jamie!
Oh, in the snow scene definitely a Tangerine Dream/Edgar Froese vibe.
Since you love the Celtic vibe you should really check out 70s Irish band Horslips and "Dearg Doom" at the BBC Old Grey Whistle Test 1974). I think you'll love the bass. I do. Pipes and mandolin as well. Also "Trouble With A Capital T" (Live at Cork Opera House, 1979).
Love the video. It's been great accompanying you on your roller coaster journey with Nightwish thus far. It is a shame majority of the world will probably never hear of Nightwish. Western countries are ignorant to anything that isn't"POP". Tuomas has done a few movies scores. Mainly in Finland and Europe. Namely The Matriarch and the Alone in the Dark movie. He truly is the Mozart of our age. And thankfully no where near as arrogant as Mozart.
Thank you for the journey, man, and not just this video, the whole Nightwish journey, even Smells Like Teen Spirit, lol.
Check out The Cold Heart of Klondike from Tuomases solo score, and then listen to the whole damn thing because it's awesome. With Tony Kalo voice and Tuomases wife Johanna that score is also a masterpiece.
thanx tank to react this album finish :) nightwish drummer kai say radio that new bassist play 10 songs row and not any mistakes :) now we start waiting 28 day and announces new player name. thanx and have great week there. finish composer jean sibelius was amazing to but nature feeling his songs and now tuomas continue that with outstanding good.
Beautiful music for baby Ingrid💜 Classical music is supposed to develop the brain especially in babies👌🏻
At least we got to hang out without the dad for a bit 😜
Sorry was to late ... but looking it now
That’s okay. I was late, too. Hahaha
@@TankTheTech , it said "LIVE now" on YT and its over already ?
Elizabeth was on Julia Nilon last night ... night for me ... 7 h time difference to Australia , 8 h to Nashville .
RUclips glitch.
Here in ad astra and in some other compositions, the voice of Floor is recognized.
the green reminds me of Evanescence - My Immortal
Tank, your computer started crying and shorted itself out....First time with no sound AND no picture!!!!
I have said on a number of occasions that Thomas is the new Tchaichovsky ( not the metal Motzart, the music it too Romantic), but I am now thinking Sebelius, because of the exquisite ability to create a landscape. The Finnish connection is not lost on me.
Not sure if you have ever heard of Two Steps From Hell. It's a music project which specializes in Film Trailer music. Anyway, one of the main composers, Thomas Bergersen, is another brilliant composer from the North.
That's here, that's home, that's US
❤️
I listen to this album (CD2) on its entirety way more often that the main one (CD1)! To meditate, to chill, cook! It is amazing
Interesting enough, In the BTS for endless forms most beautiful, they compared Tuomas to Rick Wakeman, someone that I am a big fan as well, my father used to love Rick Wakeman! And I agree. It is fantastic! I compare "Journey to the centre of the Earth" to this CD2. Just phenomenal!
hey tank nice reaction ... your channel is growing fast... i remember when you had only 10k subs ( and i was there ) congrats for the technical and awasome reactions... going for 100k subs congrats for the work you deserve it
Thanks Thomas! 🙏
After hearing this album & the Greatest Show I bought a huge pale blue dot poster to remind me everyday ... yea, like you said to think about our position in this whole thing and the extreme small probability to be here at all.
This perspective is mentally not for every one, cause it can suck you down a lot. But it also helps to calm down yourself "is all this trouble worth..." the answer is almost always. No.
Great reaction. Immortal music. Waiting for your reactions to Imaginaearum songs, man!
