If one takes a break from Nightwish and returns .... one realizes again what great band and musicans they are. It never ceases to amaze me..

I can not stop to appreciate NW - all members, TUOMAS and Floor and Marko and Troy and Emppu and Kai. listen to 1000 times, all day some years. And never get bored similar to pieces from Mozart or Beethoven or some other classic composers.

🇫🇮❤you two happy couple reacting to one of my favorite Nightwish songs performed live here in Finland.

Pissed-off Floor, not often seen but a sight to behold...

🇫🇮😁🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯🤘 ...just 49 Nightwish songs done...plenty of enjoy & euphoria to go 🤘😊👍💙🇫🇮

In an interview Tuomas gave short comment on every track of the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful, and about Weak Fantasy he said that Marko is the main composer, the rest by Tuomas. I believe the lyrics is the other way around, mainly Tuomas, the rest by Marko.

These lyrics 🔥 Love it ❤️ Great great song 🤘🇫🇮

Welcome to the Nightwish Army. You both are now part of it.

Epicness right there on that stage. "Weak Fantasy" is one of my many, many Nightwish favourites with all the trademark Nightwish transitions and multi layering. Thank you Andrei and Dominika for your wonderful, heartfelt reaction to another masterpiece from this phenomenal band. 🙏😊👍❤️

One of the best live bands of all time. Marco and floor. There is no way to do this better.

Some background to this song - some people take it as anti-religion generally, but it's more specific. Some comments from the band on making the album and the background to this song... MARCO: What comes to the new lyrics, "Weak Fantasy" was the only one that actually hints at ancient tribal literature We obviously realized that religion is a touchy subject and that we'd have to carefully consider the tone of the lyrics. It's still funny that you can publicly criticize and mock art and politics as much as youbwant, as well as artists and politicians but when you stick your finger in the hornet's nest of religion.. uh-oh. TROY: We were working on "Weak Fantasy" for quite a while. Tuomas originally used more direct, aggressive metaphors, but in the end, we decided to opt for a more ambiguous tone. Some people might still find "Weak Fantasy" confrontational, but you can have different interpretations as well. The wisdom is in the eye of the beholder TUOMAS: We discussed this stuff with the band for hours on end, and everybody stood behind the lines in Weak Fantasy" for instance. In Nightwish, I have never felt the need to neither rebel nor preach, and that hasn't changed, but if the listener stops to consider different viewpoints because of our music, that's always great. There's never enough open, intelligent, and unprejudiced discussion in the world. Marco- There's obviously nothing wrong with leaning a higher power per se. A belief in something supernatural can comfort you and help you get through the day. But its just horrible when people use ancient religions as an excuse for their own utterly condemnable acts or to instigate senseless indiscriminate hatred towards others. Blind fundamentalism seldom leads to anything good, whether you bow to Allah. Jahve, Jesus, the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or something else. TROY: As the wisdom goes, if you could reason with a fundamentalist, there would be no fundamentalists. TUOMAS: It's only during the last years that l've started to question my own religious stance. Why have I been a Lutheran and believed in the kind of God Lutherans do? It's simply because I was born in Finland in the 1970's. In another culture, in another time, there would have been another god above others. In 10th century Denmark, I would have worshipped Odin and Thor. If I'd been born North Korean, I would've been forbidden tovbelieve in any kind of Supreme Being. In other words: what you believe in - or what you think you believe in - is based on pure coincidence. TROY: It's baffling, but some of my friends are actually afraid that I will be cast into the fiery pits of hell. I can only compare these dear friends of mine to chain smokers in this respect: they know it's unhealthy, but they still refuse to quit. I don't understand why people believe in something without any proof, yet laugh at other similar beliefs - I mean, if I were to claim that you can live to be 150 by eating just yoghurt, nobody would believe me. They would ask me for some kind of proof and research findings. Why can't they apply this logic universally? TUOMAS: To be precise, I consider my- self an agnostic atheist. I don't believe in God, so that makes me an atheist How do I know that God does not exist? I don't, but neither does anybody else. That's why I am also an agnostic. To confess that you do not know some- thing is actually an intelligent and constructive stance. It makes you humble, unlike a blind belief in something unproven MARCO: We had just returned from an 18-month hiatus, so everybody was itching to make some noise again even to rehearse! It's always interesting to play new material, because new songs are not in muscle memory yet. I'm using a double-neck instrument for "Weak Fantasy" for example, and there's a moment when I have to leave the bass humming, turn on the guitar, and, on a certain eighth note quickly grab the other neck. You have to practise these things quite a bit to be able to play them with confidence.

Thanks for reacting to this.The joy on your faces was priceless. Weak Fantasy is one of my favs too. Just throwing in a suggestion here as a lot of reactors don't do this one but I think it's great. Gethsemane (Live Buenos Aires 2019)

Wow...a first for me. 1st comment. Well , you two post and I immediately click. I love your comments and reactions to the music that you post. You.re right....their music is immediately recognizable. Their sound is all their own. Thanks for this one, it's one of my personal favorites. This , Tempere, concert is something special as Floor's parents were in attendance. Love you guys...please stay safe.

🎉🎉🎉Finally!!! My favorite!!!

I hope one day you will do a revisit to Ghost Love Score, but then the version from this (Tampere) concert. Floor stepping on that long catwalk, it's breathtakingly good and the soundquality is top notch.

Nightwish was my entry into newer metal. (Black Sabbath 1972, a young teen listening) so glad I found NW via a reactor a few years ago. I took a chance. I love your reactions. 🥰

Nightwish is working on a new record right mow. It should be out in spring of 2024. You both have many more experiences to come. Strap in for the ride. More to come. Loved it Andrei and Dominika!

Finally! It took you some time to hear the masterpiece.

❤❤Amazing song❤❤ Nightwish ❤❤

Lovely to see you guys back with some more Nightwish, there's still plenty of awesome songs for you to discover from this incredible band 🤘

My favorite Nightwish song \o/

6:18 my favourite Floor rocking face! 👌🤟

Good job, Nigthwish.....❤ Good job, Andrei and Dominica 🎉

Thanks for this one.

One of my absolute favorites from Nightwish. I'm glad you finally got to it. Tuomas putting his thoughts on religion in a song is just amazing! Marco and Floor singing together on this one is so good.

Love you guys! Your reactions are so sincere and meaningful! You always said what I’m thinking, literally the same feeling and wording. All the best for your couple! ❤

I love this "love letter " to the three book Religiouns. 🤘😊👍

00:44 woop woop 🥰🥰

Just godlike

Floor and Marco sound so alike at times, its hard to tell them apart .

This track is kick arse. Floor as always slays it.

First : This song Slaps Sooooo Hard 🤘🤩🤘!!!!! Troy is playing an Electric Bouzouki ( A musical instrument popular in Greece. It is a member of the long-necked lute family, with a round body with a flat top and a long neck with a fretted fingerboard.). Marko is Playing an Warwick Infinity / Panthera Double neck Bass and Guitar ( It is called THE BEAST). This song is against organized religions based on tribal religious texts, especially The Bible, it's not against personal faith in some Deity. However, one should realize that all those religious texts are & have been interpreted and used to justify unimaginable cruelties, persecution, discrimination etc., the worst being the idea that man is separate from nature & by some divine right above all other lifeforms, which explains the current almost catastrophic state of our planet. lyrics are spot on - so many fractures in our world have a root in the fantasy that each of the religions/sects/whatever are THE ONE way. This song speaks, with anger, against the fact that we humans are destroying ourselves and this world based on a power structure that needs to be made obsolete - we ALL deserve better. I LOVE this Song . Especially Floor's Freddie Mercury pose at the end . Speaking of Freddie ,.... Floor's first band After Forever did a Cover of Queen's song "Who Wants To Live Forever ": Who Wants To Live Forever kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r7Z8p8qml9a0mZc.html NWSU/FloorFan .

Yeah Nightwish is just like an addiction…. You cant resist the music

Dominica; of course I'm sweating, ......I'm right there!

Nightwish just has a way of making you happy! Excellent reaction!🤘🎸

Domenica you are very funny ... no matter what he thinks! 😁 That is just what this Nightwish reaction video needed. Thanks to both of you, Andre and Domenica, for another very good video!

I am so glad you finally got to this one. This is possibly my favorite due to both the content of the song ( I am a recovering Catholic ) and the fact that musically this song just kicks a@@. Thank you and cheers from Denver Colorado!🍺

Ooohhh this is one of my favorite song and definitely one of the best performances by them🖤

Long time no see , welcome back to Nightwish . don't stay away so long . Hint : there are some songs you ain't heard yet from the 2018 Buenos Aries show

Thanks

🤩👍💥💯🎼 Sooo... Is it then okay to understand Nightwish is both of your "WALDEN" ? 🥰👌 Glad you took this track under your review. 10 points and a parrot sticker for that! 😋🙃 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙

🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 again well done and welcome back 🥰

They are busy recording the new album this summer, I believe...more Nightwish please love your reactions thanks.

Wonderful to have you back with NW, Dominica and Andrei! Your reactions are the luxury of my day. TBH I like NW videos better with your reactions than without any reaction. Cannot say this about other reactors regardless how competent. You really do care ❤

I got so tickled watching you Dominica !!

I hope so much there will be a new live dvd!!! before the new album!!!

One of the heavier songs on the Endless Forms Most Beautiful album. Lyrics and music co- written by Marko and Tuomas. It is a criticism of the negative aspects of organized religion. They are not opposed to having beliefs , or to religion itself.

There is a German TV show in the format of Beste Zangers where Floor, in 2022 sang a cover of 'Call You Home'. It was written by Kelvin Jones who is there on the couch. The first half of the song is similar to his rendition. The last half is all Floor and the crowd goes wild. I mean really wild and they are all singers too. It would make an excellent reaction video because no one has done it yet. It's only 3 minutes long and Floor is absolutely drop-dead gorgeous in her non-metal dress, hair style and makeup. I recommend listening to the original by Jones first. It's on TikTok. I am unable to link it. 😊🤘

Chapter Austria is with you 🤟❤️🤟

Oh I requested this with the coffee thing, thought you forgot about it :), I found it weird that you guys hadn't reacted to this one when you did all the NW stuff, it's so good. I see you clearly loved it hehe. Grtz

Thank you for your reaction.👌 (Am a Nightwish fan 🤘)

Welcome back!!!

Welcome back! ❤ Love your enthusiasm regarding Nightwish! Hope for many more to come

floorgasm

Always, ALWAYS enjoy your reaction ❤

YES you are back nightwish reaction 🤩👌!!

❤ Nightwhis is love of my life❤

I agree that Nightwish is the best introduction for people to get into metal. I have introduced quite a lot of friend into metal by just let them see Ghost Love Score and then Storytime but then I go to Dead Boys Poem. Most of the time they are really hooked and are amazed by it. Now these friend listen to Epica and Sabaton. Normally I was the only Metalhead as they called me among my friends and they declared me a bit eccentric and now they are all metal heads and appreciate very very good music, And they now agree that most Metal bands are much better than most pop artists and bands.

Well there are a new album coming 😍

Probably top 5 Nightwish performance for me. Glad you guys got around to it! 🤟

jepp nigthwish was in my head....but floor blow me away...

MY FAVORITE❤👋🇫🇮 (+Endlessness)

Hello again, you two. So wonderful to see you back again to Nightwish without our beloved Floor. Yes, the chemistry of this band is awesome. Love both of your reactions. Thank you.

Great reactions,guys, yeah... Floor and Nightwish is something else🤘

Great reaction as always Hi from France Sweet kisses 😘🤘🏻🤘🏻

Finland ❤️😎👍🏻🇸🇪

Good one.

I understand they're about to head to studio to start recording the next album and it should be out 2024. Of course, Floor being pregnant and exhausted and soon having a very small baby might cause some issues, but I believe she has tools to record vocals at home if need be. However, they won't be touring the album, and nobody knows then they will tour again.

Christopher Hitchens would have loved this one. What a scorn to religion at large and what it has done to our species since the dawn of time...

Popwish 😂😂

❤❤🇫🇮👏( Next pls.pls. Apocalyptica : Nothing else matters)

I just scrolled through your playlist…. and is it possible you didn’t react to „She is my sin“ (live from Wacken 2013)… a very good song ‼️🏆👍

Always love your reactions - they are so honest and emotional. It is always a pleasure to experience how you respond to one-another, negotiating what the songs mean to you.

Nightwish is fantastic, and never disappoint. I think that the perfect concert would be Nightwish and Within Temptation, and would be 3 hours long. ;) Heck yeah. Now, it's been awhile since you reacted to Within Temptation so I figure you'll be revisiting them soon. (Hopefully???) When you do, you have to check out their song "FASTER" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n7eGmMxmqJiyZHk.html . Be sure to watch it barefoot, though, because it's one of those songs that blow your socks off. Sharon den Adel is phenomenal.

You hadn't seen this yet? Oh my....

Better voice tnan Floor? Very good question

This is Floor in a diffrent sound,her band Revamp the song Wildcard,she does it all

Best song against religion there is

I wold love to see your react of DELAIN - Masters Of Destiny

Missed NW

Nightwish never disappoints 🔥🔥❤🔥🔥 But you guys definitely missing Bands like .... Falling in Reverse Lorna Shore Electric callboy Xandria and many more So hopefully you gonna get some time to react.. Take care

You must lisen too Beardfish And the stone said

So, why waiting… do Al Nightwish songs you haven’t done yet… ‼️🏆

do you hear that that is so heavy sounds like galloping horses

Is this music from a horror film?

Monika..czy jesteś z korzeniami pochodzenia z Polski???.czy twój przyjaciel/mąż pochodzi z Kazachstanu lub podobnych mu rejonów??? Pozdrawiam. .mając nadzieję że nie popełniam błędu w przypuszczeniach...☺

A little background of just 2m 41sec excellently presented by Tuomas and Troy: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kLCliq-cud3Ydqc.html

Nightwish announced recently that they will release a new album in 2024 which will have 12 new songs and will be also introduced with 3 new Music Videos. Since June of this year they are taking a break from touring for private Reasons (which according to Nightwish have nothing to do with Floor being pregnant). According to Tuomas next album will be the final part in a trilogy and a "logical conclusion to the last both albums (Endless Forms Most Beautiful and Human. :II: Nature).
