Oh man...dude... I get such a healthy mix of admiration and envy listening to talented artists like yourself! I mean, come on!! The greatest thing with Nightwish (in my humble opinion) is that...well you know, usually if you start analyzing great things they tend to loose their magic...your approach ADDS to it! Sublime work Sir, I applaud you. As to Floor, what can one say indeed...I can only repeat what I felt about a zillion times; she's the only vocal artist that can hit me full blast in the guts while gently caressing my cheek... the only 'negative' point about Nightwish perhaps (again, speaking for myself) would be that they kinda ruined other bands for me so far... So, a big thank you Sir, you just became a highlight in an already sweet Sunday...greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪!

what an OUTSTANDING workout you gave us! I'm not a musician but am amazed at how quickly you latched onto the elements of this fantastic song. W-O-A 2013 was a unique show seen from the perspective of nearly a decade on. I'm always impressed by this bands performance only 10 months after a huge internal seismic event. thanks for taking the extra time to break this down.

Could not agree more. JW stated in the vid that "this is great fun." It may have been great fun for him to do a breakdown of this vid, but it is great fun for us to watch and learn WHY we love these songs the way we do. It gives me a new appreciation not only for the composers and performers, but for talented folks like JW who can explain these things to us.

I appreciate how you gave props to Jukka for his energy, passion and style of drumming. IMHO, it seems he has a real swing to his style of drumming. I usually find myself moving like he does for side to side as opposed to up and down to the beat. I really enjoyed how you are now doing more detailed musical deconstructions and commentary. Yes, it is a children's choir that is being used. Wonderful reaction John. Love your intro guitar piece.

Really enjoyed that runthrough with the instruments. Also love that you pointed out Jukka's drumming. A shame he had to retire due to health issues. Don't get me wrong, the drummer currently with Nightwish, Kei Hahto, is an awesome technical drummer, but I feel that Jukka had a unique style that fitted Nightwish perfectly. I miss the vibe that he used to bring. Thanks JW.

simply great to watch... love how you understand music. I'm a very amateur drummer and in awe watching Jukka & Kai; but my brother is a musical guru like you, he's become a school Music Teacher, he's mainly a drummer (used to be really big in Marching Band part of music), but can do pretty much anything but vocals, point being as someone with some actual musical education: it's great seeing a reactor that isn't fake and someone that appreciates the artists, not just trying to get Subs and Likes. And for that, I'll Subscribe... Good Job! Oh, and welcome to the Nightwish Army!

I enjoyed your deconstruction of the song. I think a lot of people focus on the vocals, which are great, and miss the really amazing chord progressions he uses here. The music has a slightly sinister undertone to it which contrasts so well with the vocals. And the chorus is a masterpiece. I just love everything about it.

As per Wikipedia below: Orchestra and choir The choir group Metro Voices contributed vocals, led by choir mistress Jenny O'Grady. The Young Musicians London also contributed vocals, led by Lynda Richardson and co-ordinated by Jenny O'Grady. The orchestra, The London Philharmonic Orchestra, called "The Looking Glass Orchestra", was led by Thomas Bowes and conducted by James Shearman. The orchestra and choir was arranged, orchestrated and directed by Pip Williams.
