    One of my favourite Tarja tracks. Could Floor do it justice? Stupid question, Floor, new to Nightwish, simply took anything from Tarja’s and Annette’s days with the band and made it her own, with all of the stage presence and charisma of a female latter day Freddie Mercury.

    5:10 I said it before on this channel: most hard rock and metal bands have two guitar players. A rhythm guitar and a lead guitar. Nighwish has Emppu. And Emppu will deliver all your guitar needs as promised, while drinking a beer and engaging with the audience. This guy is MASSIVELY underrated, and I'm glad Eric does give him some respect. [edit] LOL I wrote this comment after seeing that beer-moment, before watching Eric talk about Emppu. Thanks for not letting me down, Eric! 😀

    Emppu is a great guitarist, and Nightwish doesn't need more than one guitarist. Some bands are built around two guitars, but not Nightwish. Another band who couldn't work with more than one was Van Halen. Eddie was enough for the band, and they did a lot of complex, dense music combining guitars and keyboards, much like Nightwish does. On that matter, Troy is a good guitarist, but they don't really need him in that capacity. Much like Sammy Hagar was a good guitarist, but Van Halen didn't need him in that capacity.

    Nightwish can change singer, drummer anybody but not Emppu, he is the soul vibe of this band, Tuomas left hand. He has stayed with the band from the very start, and he doesn't want to be in any other spotlights than on the stage. This is one song that gives you the right groove of what Nightwish sound really is as it's best. Hopefully next album would have more of this sound.

    Did you notice that Floor barely made it to the mic on time? She had a bit of a 'wardrobe malfunction'! The song before this one was "Last Of The Wilds", and not having vocals, she took the opportunity to change costume. A zipper got stuck halfway! Not disastrous or potentially embarrassing, but she had to wait for the interlude in "Ghost Love Score", several songs later, to get help fixing it. She tends not to have full changes since, just putting jackets on and off and whatnot. Great reaction as always.

    Jukka is like a barely restrained tiger, just chewing at those drums, snarling and surging forward as he consumes the music. He is in a class of his own, and the drums truly sound a different tone with his wild but perfect heartbeat of each song. Everyone is a standout in various places in this song, although they mesh together harmoniously, not in a show-stealing way. Floor’s wordless vocals just add so much to this song, tying all the elements together and spiking the emotional connection to the music. Love the crescendos, then fade-outs to just her voice! Talk about comforting you, then pushing you down the stairs, just to scoop you up in her arms again! Brilliant song, tight analysis. Stellar example of the Nightwish magic.

    Great reaction / summary & compliments to the individual band members from you. I think this song is an important link in the Nightwish journey understanding how Tuomas lead to Poet & The Pendulum. His emotions are his lyrics & the music. I was born amidst the purple waterfalls I was weak, yet not unblessed Dead to the world Alive for the journey One night I dreamt a white rose withering A newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness I dreamt all my future. Relived my past I witnessed the beauty of the beast Where have all the feelings gone? Why has all the laughter ceased? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child How can I ever feel again? Given the chance would I return? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time I've never felt so alone in my life As I drank from a cup which was counting my time There's a poison drop in this cup of man To drink it is to follow the left hand path Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time Where have all the feelings gone? Why is the deadliest sin, To love as I loved you? Now unblessed, homesick in time, Soon to be freed from care, from human pain My tale is the most bitter truth Time pays us but with earth & dust And a dark, silent grave. Remember, my child Without innocence the cross is only iron, Hope is only an illusion And the ocean soul's Nothing but a name The child bless thee And keep thee forever

    Thanks for a good reaction! Solid mix of technical aspects and entertainment. The old Finnish stereotype is that only pretenders beat their own drum - for those who know their shit the results speak for themselves. And while younger generations are breaking the mold more and more, Tuomas and Emppu are not young and they certainly fit into this mindset. Emppu lives for the smiles of the Nightwish army and gets them plenty. My guess is he does not *want* to be in a cover of a magazine. Like Tuomas, he rather speaks through his music. Emppu does exactly what the song needs, not showoffs, but well, over the years the bar for those needs has gone up quite a lot. I just recently saw a virtual live performance where Emppu was playing the same or similar motifs on guitar than Tuomas had played on keys and Troy was playing on pipes. Which is what Tuomas often does, rotating the themes from one instrument to another. And boy, it looked like that part was *not* composed by a guitarist, his fingers went from one awkward position to another and did it fast. But that's Emppu - unless you look at the fingers you're not going to realize it's hard to play. He just does it perfectly and smiles the whole time.

The intriguing spoken parts at the start and end of the song, the musical layering, the tones, the lyrics, the singing, the drive, the riffs… What Emppu brings to this song is so awesome. I tell you, the picks I caught at a couple of last year’s shows are some of my most prized possessions.

    After getting more and more into this show, I loved picking up those little trivia pieces from people who've been there or are just fans for a longer time than me. But this song came after Last of the Wilds, which gave Floor time for a quick costume change. She almost missed her mark, which only can tell cause I know, such a pro. She had a little wardrobe misfunction with the zipper of her top, only able to fix it during the instrumental break of Ghost Love Score😅 little things

    Shout out to Little Raven. This was a great Tarja song but it has to be said that Floor brings something extra - quite apart from being able to understand the lyrics. The last part is over spoken word: "Where have all the feelings gone? Why is it the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you? Now unblessed, homesick in time Soon to be freed from care, from human pain My tale is the most bitter truth: Time pays us but with earth and dust, and a dark silent grave Remember my child - without innocence the cross is only iron Hope is only an illusion and ocean soul's - nothing but a name The child bless thee and keep thee forever" This will grow on you the more you listen, even if you loved it first time. BTW, completely agree that talking to guitar lovers it's always "what about Emoou Vuorinen then?" - "Who's he?" - "Oh only one of the best guitarists around Go and learn."

    2/3rds through the set. 10th out of 15 songs. She had a wardrobe problem which caused her to just barely make it out for the start. I love Tuomas' spoken poetry at the beginning and end of the song. I love Kai, but do really miss Jukka's amazing flamboyant passionate drumming. Emppu is not appreciated enough for everything he brings to Nightwish. Wonderful to hear you express it so eloquently. Great stuff again Eric! Spoken intro “I was born amidst the purple waterfalls. I was weak, yet not unblessed. Dead to the world. Alive for the journey. One night I dreamt a white rose withering, a newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness. I dreamt all my future. Relived my past. I witnessed the beauty of the beast” Spoken outro “Where have all the feelings gone? Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you?

    (Too many) years ago, before the Anette-era, I was searching on KZread for a clip from a movie I had seen. Every search I did never yielded the clip I was searching for, but I kept seeing a video for a song by some band called "Nightwish". Never heard of 'em (at that time), and at first glance, not my style, way too goth-looking and I wasn't into European bands, I was fairly domestic in my musical tastes. Every search, no clip, but there's that damned video again. WTF?! So finally I said what the hell and clicked on it. 🤯 WHO THE F**K IS NIGHTWISH!? I was hooked instantly, having never heard symphonic metal before, but it was the genre that I'd been unknowingly wanting to hear all this time. I started listening to their other songs and was a fan in no time, educating myself on the band history and members and drove my family nuts talking (RAVING) about them. What was the song? BLESS THE CHILD. The rest is history.

    Excellent reaction and analysis from you again 👍. And I agree - mostly.... I believe you are missing the effect of Tuomas giving the others the responsibility of their own parts in the stories. Like - Tuomas sends the raw materials played on piano to the other. And then they often talk about the stories - sometimes in depth - and sometimes just overall, so they can add their own color and interpretation. (that why some melodies change dramatically, before they are recorded! - especially Marko and Troy has had some major influence on some songs/ melodies - not the lyrics). And Floor's interpretation, layers, chorus and emotions - are up to her. She often discusses the stories, with Tuomas - but she adds new perspectives and emotions in the stories - and Tuomas always accept this - because that's exactly what he wants people to do - think deeply about the lyrics, and interpret them individually. I believe this is why the band are so brilliant - it's Tuomas's ideas - but enhanced with all the others interpretations and emotions - add-ons.. Of course they have to be on the same mindset / level - and also be capable of adding something - but they truly are!! The respect of each other in this band are incredible - like Floor sending her solo material to Tuomas, to get his honest opinion - it says it all! And Tuomas creating 'impossible' lyrics, knowing that Floor will crack the code and blow him away. The skills and mutual acknowledge of each other's capabilities are something we all should study and learn from. Wow - I just got carried away 😂 Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘😅

    I Concur with Your analysis , I always think of this Song as a Nightwish Anthem it Starts out like the Opening Scene to call everyone to attention (Instruments, Spoken Words, Choir, Rythm, Tones, Vocals, Tones, Rythm, Choir, Spoken Words Instruments). This was written for "Tarja" her voice is darker it makes it more ethereal. Floor's version is brighter and Puncher. Both Versions are equal and different, I do not think they should be judged against each other, Just compared to the same song produced slightly different equal in talent and effort.

    But Tarja version is definitely worth checking. It's significantly different and not worse. I have played the album version of this song (and the whole album) so much it's hard to hear Floor version as being 'right', but right now I feel this is one of the songs where Tarja has an edge. Sleeping Sun, Walking in the Air and Wishmaster might be the others.

    (spoken )I was born amidst the purple waterfalls I was weak, yet not unblessed Dead to the world Alive for the journey One night I dreamt a white rose withering A newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness I dreamt all my future. Relived my past I witnessed the beauty of the beast (sung)Where have all the feelings gone? Why has all the laughter ceased? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child How can I ever feel again? Given the chance would I return? Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time I've never felt so alone in my life As I drank from a cup which was counting my time There's a poison drop in this cup of man To drink it is to follow the left hand path Why am I loved only when I'm gone? Gone back in time to bless the child Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time Think of me long enough to make a memory Come bless the child one more time Where have all the feelings gone? (spoken) Why is the deadliest sin, To love as I loved you? Now unblessed, homesick in time, Soon to be freed from care, from human pain My tale is the most bitter truth Time pays us but with earth & dust And a dark, silent grave. Remember, my child Without innocence the cross is only iron, Hope is only an illusion And the ocean soul's Nothing but a name The child bless thee And keep thee forever

    I always say that Wacken 2013 was "lightening in a bottle" for Nightwish...but having seen so many other performances, the band dynamic remains a.constant. only to a slightly lesser degree w Jukka on bass bc like it or not, Marko was difinitvely, Nightwish. Please don't bash me I've watched about 80 reactions to 1916 and I'm fkn weary.
