    Here's some nice pre- and after-show footage of this concert. Short interviews with Floor, her parents and Tuomas and Marko. Most of it is in Dutch, but there are subtitles. It's from a Dutch tv program called " De Reunie" (The Reunion), where old school classes reunite. This episode is with a class from the Dutch Rock Academy, where Floor studied. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dGeCq8iuYNTcpMo.html

    Happy birthday G. Before starting Nightwish Tuomas studied biology, it was during studies in the US his host family brought him to a Metallica concert and Tuomas life changed. And Floor wanted to be a biologist when she was a kid. Troy is playing an Irish low whistle in the beginning, in the Wembley version he plays electric guitar with an E-bow. LUCA = Last universal common ancestor. The writing in the garden = DNA, its just 4 letters: A,C,G and T. We were here! It goes both for us as a specie, and for us as individuals. The odds of you being born as you is1:400.000.000.000. The text Dawkins reads at the end is from Darwin.

    Happy birthday Ginger! As a paleoevolutionary biologist myself, this song really pushes all of my nerd buttons, and when you add this to the fact that I'm also a classical musician this is quite possibly one of my favourite songs of all time. The instrumentation is phenomenal, the key changes fantastic, and the fact they have fireworks interlinked with the E major chords at the beginning which symbolises the formation of the earth and possibly the formation of the moon after the impact from Thea, is just mind blowing. And when you put Prof. Richard Dawkins into the mix, narrating from his book, the song for me is just perfect! Opus perfectum, indeed.

    As a biology nerd myself this song always makes me smile thinking about how crazy it is that we are here. I loved that you commented and understand the biology and science behind the lyrics but also on how the music followed this...the calm and then the chaos. I personally always thought too that the fact that they throw in a brief evolution of music was really great. I like too that the “Homo Sapien” section was really short compared to the opening piano, etc as it shows too that we are a speck on the timeline of this planet. The opening lyrics and the way sung by Floor always gets me a little as I picture somehow being there to see the first sunrise and how incredible that would have been. The first two verses after that might be some of if not my favorite lyrics not only of Nightwish but any song...again science guy here. Happy Birthday and cheers 🥂

    Happy birthday Ginger! You are such a character!!! Tuomas had a Christian upbringing, his grandpa was a priest, the leader of the local evangelic lutherian congrigation in Kitee, a small town of 10 000 people, where Tuomas, Emppu, Jukka and Tarja are originally from. And there were many priests in the family before him. Tuomas grandpa had seven daughters, but no son. That was the end of long line of priests in the family. Tuomas, by the way, is a mean pipe organ player. A short 2 minute clip on YT proves that. He also used to play the clarinet and the saxophone. In an interview in 2007 the interviewer was teasing/provoking Tuomas by saying Nightwish is a religion. "Whenever you write a new song your followers read the lyrics like they were a holy scripture." Tuomas: "I like the way you put it. May I quote you on that? My gradpa is smiling in his grave." Based on an interview I have the understanding that Tuomas' wife Johanna Kurkela, a well know vocalist herself, the new album of Auri, with Tuomas and Troy, was just completed a couple of days ago, has some kind of religious conviction or belief in a supernatural power, God or whatever you call it. Since we are talking about convictions, I can tell I am an atheist. In Finland the state church, though the politicians decided not to call it that anymore, still has preferencial treatment by the state of Finland, and I would like to see a change in that. I would like the church to do it's own job, without the help of the state. The Church can still force it's beliefs in schools. 68%, (the number is going down steadily at the rate of about 1 percentage point a year), of Finns are, STILL!, members of the state church, many because of tradition only. If you ask the members how ofter they go to a church service, the most common answers are not at all or once a year. The awerage is one time per member per one year! Members in name only! In Helsinki 50 % of people are members of the church, it's going to go under 50% soon. Ten years ago 40 000 people left the church in one month, as a protest against how the church treats homosexuals. Normally around 50 000 per year. There is this internet site where you can resign from the membership. It started in 2003 and as of today 750 000 members have used the service. 3,8M members are left today. The population of Finland is 5,5M. Less and less children are being baptized. Younger generations are quite secular. Some already suggested Nightwish "Weak Fantasy". The song is about religion, religious oppression, letting fear dictate your life. I prefer the Tampere version over Wembley Hi again from Helsinki.

    My delayed Happy Birthday wishes to You Ginger 🥂🌺 What in world would be better way to spend it than with Nightwish' stunning performance with all the fireworks 🎇 The Greatest show on Earth with the Greatest Band on Earth 🤘❣️ FYI, Nightwish got an unexpected Honor in particular for this Album, Endless Forms Most Beautiful. They published following news below on their Facebook. My sincere congratulations to the NW Band and to Master himself, Tuomas Holopainen ❣️🤘 ”One new crab species (Tanidromites nightwishorum) was named after us in honor in particular for our 2015 album, ’Endless Forms Most Beautiful’, about the evolution of life. The new species of crab was found in eastern Austria and lived during the late part of the Jurassic period, around 150 million years ago. While dinosaurs dominated the land, parts of Europe were covered by a warm, shallow sea full of life. Tanidromites nightwishorum was discovered in a fossil coral reef. Crab diversity and abundance exploded for the very first time in their evolutionary history during the Late Jurassic in central Europe. Thanks to Dr. Adiel A. Klompmaker and his colleagues for this truly fantastic honour (Adiel is curator of palaeontology, Alabama Museum of Natural History).

    The choreography of this is award winning stuff. It is a bit complex for just plain music followers. However to most it is epic and uderstandable and just pure genius. The versatility of nightwish is why they are so good. I wish they were more widely played in America. South America loves them. I have however seen an increase in their popularity because of the reactor. You guys are great reactors. I love what you do. I am 74 years old, but I didn't live each segment, luka is not my cousin.

    This song is based on the book The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution is a 2009 book by British biologist Richard Dawkins, which was released on 3 September 2009 in the UK and on 22 September 2009 in the US. It sets out the evidence for biological evolution, and is Dawkins's 10th book, following his best-selling critique of religion The God Delusion (2006) and The Ancestor's Tale (2004), which traced human ancestry back to the dawn of life. The Nightwish have had three lead singers, Floor Jansen that sings now and the other two are all schooled sopranos.
