It's a f"#¤ing adventure!

A little background may help. The key board player is Tuomas Holopainen. Tuomas composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. When he wrote this song he was in a deep depression. I won't get into why right now. Tuomas writes songs to get his feelings out. So he wrote about a suicide, because that is how some people deal with things. So by writing about it, it stops him from considering it. This is a real short version. I would have suggested something different. Something not as depressing. Here is a couple of songs that are upbeat. "Romanticide" live at Wacken 2013. "Song of Myself" live at Wacken 2013. Actually any song from that concert would be great. I hope this did not turn you off to Nightwish. They have a over 100 songs. They are not all that depressing. Tuomas has written all kinds of songs.......... :-) Keep on playing Nightwish and that should help your numbers somewhat! hehehe

They keep playing with your emotions because of the genius of Tuomas (the keyboardist, the lead songwriter of the band since the beginning), simply put, and all the other band members are fully committed to it, putting everything they have in it. You're in for a good ride if you begin exploring Nightwish, that's for certain... ;)

In case no-one has explained it to you yet: The vocalist's name is is Floor Jansen, so you'll experience "Floorgasm" when you hear her. The term was originally coined probably from the end note of Ghost Love Score, but can be applied to her every remarkable performance, which makes you feel awestruck.

A Floorgasm is technically what you experience when Floor hits a high note.

What is also so amazing about Nightwish is that each song is a story.

”He’s still cutting the grass!!” -now this is a perfect moment to remind people that Nightwish also has done an excellent cover version of Pink Floyd’s ”The Grass Was Greener”. Check "High Hopes"!

Actually, the guitarist came to chat with the keyboardist because the song, written by the keyboardist, is very emotionally taxing for him. Up to the point that he used to have his monitors muted for parts of the song. It describes the darkest moments in his life, deep depression and suicidal thoughts, after they fired a childhood friend from the band. In his own dramatical description he "committed a suicide through the song because he couldn't do it in reality".

@@clairlestrange It's probably a part of it, but I think there are more pragmatic reasons as well. The song does not really fit the concept of the last album, and the shows of the 2015/2016 tour were built around that. The 2018 tour was to celebrate 20 years of the band, and so they played more of the rarer songs. This song is also quite long, and there's only that many long songs one can fit in a show. Whatever has Tuomas said, I think they might play it in the future if it fits and they feel like it.

Floor is an angel. She just apparates onto the stage when she's needed to bless our ears. xD

I can never decide what I like best about that performance. The band’s cohesion, Floor’s perfect vocals.... or that outfit she’s wearing 😍😍

Emotional roller coast ride just like Tuomas (the song writer) felt in 2005 when he swam in these deep waters with his thoughts when he had to make a choice between firing his dear friend (current singer) or to bury the band (his dear "child"). Finally it was easier to fire the vocalist (Tarja Turunen) because she was in any case leaving the band after the next album and starting her solo career. 🤣🤣🤣 Your face was pretty hilarious when Marco (the bassist/2nd vocalist) started to sing - well, scream like an angry viking warrior at this time at 11:00. You should react to his singing as well sometime. Nice to hear that somebody has to cut his grass at the same time when we are shoveling the frigging snow in here! 🤣

Nightwish play with your emotions because they can. It's just what musical geniuses do.

Floor Jansen is one of the greatest singers in modern history. There is a constant discussion amongst fans about who is better their original singer Tarja Turunen or Floor. And while Tarja is operatically superior Floor can do everything. The operatic parts, the full melodic verses, screams, growls, high pitched notes...Floor is the more complete singer and Anette Olzon the one between Floor and Tarja....well She was....ok.....

Epica is amazing as well and Simone (their lead vocalist) is friends with Floor. Check out Design Your Universe and Chasing the Dragon live from their Retrospect concert! It’s all live with a full choir and orchestra!

@BillyYouSoCrazy the reason you never see her come up to the mic is because she, as a valkyrie, descends from valhalla to the microphone.

Where does she keep coming from? She descends from heaven.

ONE word for The Poet and the Pendulum = Masterpiece!

Those roller coaster of emotions were exactly what Tuomas (the composer and keyboardist) wanted us to feel, as he felt the same in the time he composed the song ;)

Don'y worry the grass - we can put it in the background. Just live with the music, we appreciate you doing it. You really go with the emotions of the song. ReSPECT!. Will be hearing more of you.

simple explination...read the background of the song. Also that is the mastery of Tuomas ( the keyboardist and writer) he is beyond godlike in his skills.

OK, you need some backstory to this amazing song. The guy on the keys is Tuomas. Nightwish is his brainchild and he has composed and written a vast majority of the songs since the beginning in 1996. In 2005 the rest of the band agreed (this is a whole new can of worms which I will not go into atm) that the lead singer Tarja of the past 9 years should leave the band. It was a tough time for everyone, the fans, the band and especially Tuomas, who thought that the thing that he had poured his whole life into over the past 9 years was ending. He fell into a depression and for a while it seemed that everything would indeed end. But my boy Tuomas, even though gentle as all artists and musicians are, said he would not allow it and wrote this song. The lyrics and the music tell us what he was going through at the time and probably still feels to some degree today. The rest of the band knows this, which is why when they play this song (as it is a fan favourite), he will have the sound engineers not play the poem part to him, as it is too much for him to bear and both the guitar and bass player would walk up to him and talk to him to see how he's doing. Here you saw him smiling, because he knew that everything will be ok now, as now with the new singer Floor, they've become more popular and successful than ever before, even after all those years ago things seemed as dark as they could possibly get. Now go listen to it again and pull up the lyrics. ;)

you really have to check out Nightwish Romanticide

I bet they would be so awesome to see live that would be a sweet show

Average Nightwish listener: Floorgasm Billy: Marcogasm

this singer of nightwish was Annette Olzon. the 1st singer was Tarja (Tar-Ya) Turenen, Annette was the 2nd singer, and Floor Jansen is the 3rd and current singer

Second Nightwish song I've seen from you, and subscribed

That song is written by Tuomas Holopainen after what happend to the band in 2005. When Tuomas felt that his child and his lifework. The Nightwish was going down to the drain, and entire world hated him and everybody blamed him for what happend to Tarja Turunen (the first singer of Nightwish) Tuomas wrote this song instead of committing a suicide, it's full of metaphors for all the emotions he felt after the band forced him to fire Tarja. Nightwish is everything to Tuomas and situation was.. Fire Tarja or the band will split apart, and he couldn't let that happen and then the media and fans turned on him and blamed him for Tarja's firing. Tuomas and Tarja were childhood friends and they went to school together and that crushed him so bad to have to fire her and he went into a deep depression after that. The band was formed in 1996 by Tuomas and Tarja together with Emppu Vuorinen who was also a schoolmate of Tuomas and Tarja. Tuomas lyrics are just genius... And this song is his suicide instead of the real one.

Band didn't force Tuomas to fire Tarja. Tuomas, Marco, Jukka and Emppu all did the decision together. The time before firing Tarja was really difficult, full of anger and sadness. The desicion was nothing but easy. But like you said, it was the lifework of Tuomas that was in line and he wasn't ready to give up on that. And yes, there was people who blamed Tuomas that they kicked Tarja out, but not all. Basically there was two groups; fans who believed the band and fans who believed Tarja. And I think it was Tuomas who got most of the shit 'cause he dealt all the public shit storm, and he was the "voice" of the letter, he wrote it, though all the members signed it.
