I yelled "Max, you idiot" at that first bit, in honor of Jack Lemmon's organ in "The Great Race".

Here is my quick translation of what Tuomas says at around 0:55 "As the greatest friend of grandiosity this was perhaps the best thing ever I have gotten to try. The feeling is incomparable, it is the finest sound that keyboards can make. I am dumbfounded and this isn't the last of it." Sorry if the translations isn't 100% spot on, but the general idea should be there. Hmmm.. .wonder if there was some sort of clue of what the next NW album contains? ;)

I think Queen has have an important influence on Tuomas. Like Queen, Tuomas, and Nightwish, approach every detail in a very professional manner. There are quite a number of similarities between the two bands. Tuomas/Freddy as writers. Floor/Freddy who seem modest off stahe but thrive on stage. No cocky attitudes, but polite. And every detail of the show is rehersed.

Very comfortable instrument. Bring Tuomas on his next tour. Should pass as hand luggage.

I have heard several magnificent cathedral organs live in Germany - they are incredible sounding, and incredibly complex to play. Props, absolutely makes sense the Metal Mozart can so easily play one!! Respect, Mr Holopainen.

This guy is amazing.

The church I went to with my family growing up had an organ and on Christmas Eve the organist would add a little “flare” to the music. It’s hard to describe other than to say she played it with more “epicness” and I’ve yet to find anything quite like it on the internet.

So that's what Tuomas is bringing to the next tour? :D

There is so much music in the world, lacking the time to listen to all of it, so have to choose carefully. Before there was NW there has been other music considering my age. But since there have been lockdowns due to Covid, i enjoy watching other people react to NW and discovering your music. Human:II:Nature has been and is the perfect album for this Day and age. These difficult times the world is going through. But not only the Human but more important the Nature itself, the Earth. I hope we humans will take good care of it.
