    People give Troy a hard time about his vocals, mostly because he isn't Marco, but for songs like this they are perfect. Then he's probably the one playing the whistle at the end as well as playing almost everything else as needed. I love this song. I don't care if Nightwish is supposed to be metal; this is just next level stuff.

    Not able to listen to this with dry eyes, it goes straight to your soul. It’s so fragile and strong at the same time.
    What a gorgeous piece of music composed by Tuomas and so emotionally sung by Floor.
    Tuomas said that Lanternlight is a song of love to celebrate live of the people that passed. In this case mainly his dad I guess.

    Hey Amie, Lady you just made me Cry Again with your wonderful review, Thank You. Just to let you know Just in case you do not, Tuomas, The Keyboard Player, and band leaded of Nightwish, wrote this song for his father, who passed away 2 years ago, and it was the very first song that Tuomas wrote for the new Album, and he also played the Piano for this song himself when it was recorded. Also Floor, and Tuomas, and the crew booked 2 weeks with Floor at her home studio in Sweden, to record the Vocals for the new Album. Floor Had only just had her second Child Lucy 6 weeks before they came to record the Album, But Floor being Floor, She got on with it, and they recorded the whole Album in Just 6 Days, Wow. Thank You

    I'm 73 and I am the last man standing in my family. I understand the loss, yet I still live with hope and intent. Nevertheless, Floor's voice and this composition is akin to an emotional depth charge to the heart. Her face, good Lord, her beautiful face so expressive and adorned with nothing save her heart and soul just melts me to my core. Some of you get it. Some of you don't. I do, and that's all that matters. Kiitos to all of you in Nightwish for delivering such epic and emotional story telling.

    Lovely reaction! Final song from the final album of the trilogy. It feels to me like someone saying goodbye to family and friends as their life comes to the end. Loads of beautiful imagery in the lyrics of seeing the end, of reminding those we love that we will always be present, of lamenting the unfinished things we leave behind (as is always the case), and then walking "to the trees". Since Tuomas is famous for writing lyrics for multiple interpretations I could also see this song where the narrator is death personified, much like the way the lyrics in Music were. A third way I see it is that the lyrics aren't necessarily about a person but are instead a metaphor for humanity and our walk through the eons of our existence which would fit well with the themes of the album trilogy. A number of references to Auri and other Nightwish songs. "I am in the light and flood" and " I am in the four winds" IMO are shout outs to the Auri songs Light and Flood and The Name of the Wind, very beautiful instrumental that have a similar feel. For me the line "I am you who climbed off your back" gives me Decades in the Sun vibes and of course "To the meadows I go" is tapping into the same symbolism and meaning as Meadows of Heaven. Heartachingly beautiful song and a perfect bookend to the album and trilogy.
    The song is a beautiful tribute to Tuomas's father who passed in 2021 and the first song written for the album. A celebration of all who are the lantern light for our journey through life. I agree with Tuomas, if we have lived a life of joy and meaning then we shouldn't be sad at the end but celebrate a life well lived. I think this song and Epica's Tides of Time will be the songs for my funeral when I pass.
    Since you like this song so much you should checkout Tuomas, Troy, and Tuomas's wife Johanna Kurkela's project Auri. Beautiful atmospheric folky music similar to this song. Some of may favorites are Desert Flower, The Space Between, and The Valley.

    The Charismatic voice did an interview very recently with Floor about this album (check it out) and about singing after giving birth. She recorded the vocals at home with the band, as 6 weeks after postpartum she stil had pain when standing and felt not fit to travel from Sweden to Finland. But her voice was in shape and she recorded her vocal parts in 6 days where Tuomas had planned 14 days, including pauses to feed Lucy❤👌💪

    Gone is the hurt, the wait,
    gone is the warmth of day.
    A stray boat saved, happy memories engraved,
    on into a velvety night,
    beneath a lanternlight.
    Last night brought the heaviest of snows
    melting the songs of old,
    tying the boat, write a new one soon,
    sending me to the drowning moon,
    far above a lanternlight.
    I'm in the light and flood,
    I'm in the four winds,
    I am the waves shaping pebbles flawless gems,
    I am the snow on your palm.
    I am the secret stream,
    moss beneath your feet,
    I am you who climbed off of my back
    not long ago,
    a sheltered song in a world now gone,
    petrichor,
    the timeless.
    Turn loose the swaying boat,
    meltwater, sound of spring.
    I hear our song now, sung by the free,
    for a thousand more tomorrows
    of an incomplete weave.
    To the meadows I go,
    I’ll be waiting for you
    once upon a lanternlight.
    I walk now toward the trees,
    I am the secret stream,
    the night falling at my feet
    into the forest of Yesterwynde.

    This song is written by Tuomas, as a ode to hes Father that passed away in 2021, Floor sings absolute beautiful on this, and Troy joining at end, perfect!! I lost my Father 6 years ago, and my mother 5 years ago, listening to this, will bring me memories of them, and a song of sadness, beauty and hope at same time, its a song i would consider a masterpiece, love it!!
    This was the first song Tuomas wrote for the new album Yesterwynde
    Btw; The film projector at end of song, start the album, and end it... another fun thing Floor said, she feel she got a better range in voice after being pregnant!! and she was in pain recording album, as it was like 6 weeks after birth she recorded it, but Floor is a tough cockie!!
    Imo they ended up making a masterpiece of a album, and especially with this album if we just take the Floor era, i feel the album really makes a grand journey, i love listen to it from start to finish, i didnt feel like that with Endless forms most beautiful, or Human to nature same way.

    Starting deep and low...
    This sounds like her solo album,
    I think Tuomas liked the variety of her singing on that.
    Floor said that she chokes up too easily with this song,
    the band rewinds, during the sessions, to let her recover.
    Mmm, the warmth of her voice.
    "Last night brought the heaviest of snows"
    That sad piano about to sink below the ice.
    “Melting the songs of old”
    Reminiscences, love of the souls that have gone before.
    Tuomas wrote this in memory of his father.
    The pocket watch to wind...
    The old style film projector, a "Magic Lantern".
    The old flickering movies, like memories.
    Floor soaring away.
    Celebration of their lives, rather than mourning.
    Did you get the Tuomas déjà vu references?
    (You may not get some of these yet, there are plenty more)
    “I am the snow on your palm” [Storytime]
    “I am the secret stream ” [Sagan, Shudder Before The Beautiful, Endlessness]
    “Moss beneath your feet” [My Walden]
    “I am you who climbed off of my back” [Our Decades in the Sun]
    “Petrichor” (with a hint of green) [The smell of fresh rain on grass, Last Ride Of The Day, Song of Myself]
    “Timeless” (with a hint of a smile) [Perfume of the Timeless]
    “To the meadows I go” [Meadows of Heaven]
    Then Troy drifts in, with his soft voice.
    He made up the word, so his pronunciation, is our guide,
    _right at the end_ of the album. :)

    Not synth strings afaik, and more than just strings, particularly when Floor goes big in her high range, you can hear the whole real orchestra progressively join in, particularly the brass section. Tuomas wrote for the London orchestra, and worked with a well known orchestra arranger on all the orchestra and choir parts used extensively in this album. There are a separate set of tracks of just the orchestra music for each song.
