I'm 56 years old and have heard A LOT of music in my lifetime. I have probably heard this song/seen this video hundreds of times, and still tear up every time I hear it. One of the most amazing and beautiful songs ever written. Well done on your review, and fear not, if you DON'T tear up listening to this song, then you really have no grasp to just how vast and wonderful our universe really is. And how insignificant we as humans truly are in the grand scheme of things.

I think it's a powerful message when they chant 'we were here'. At this point of the song, they were singing about the end of humanity, the inevitable time when we are no more. They aren't shouting to the heavens that we are here, for someone to notice us. It was a celebration that after everything is said and done, we lived and that is amazing. WE WERE HERE!

I like this version more, but when they played live at Wembly, Prof. Richard Dawkins was actually on stage saying these. I hear the band was totally starstruck, while Dawkins, having given hundreds or more lectures, was terrified because had never before stood in front of 12500 crazied fans.. :) And yes, The Greatest Show on Earth is a book by him. The speech at the very end "creatures most beautiful and wonderful are still being evolved" is borrowed straight from Darwin.

I learned about The Theory of Evolution in school. I question my upbringing in how humans came into existence. I could go on and on on this subject. Nightwish is an AWESOME band!!!! Poet and the Pendulum is another fantastic song. You need to preview it before you post anything. Grab Kleenex.

I loved how you implemented the subtitles. And did these for the spoken parts from Dawkins, too. It just shows how damn deep those song is. For example the first part where all are gathered around the fire (all planets around the sun) entering the goldilocks zone (the habatable zone around the sun, not to cold or to warm) and then where time "enters LUCA" (LUCA is the scientific origin of life, so the first living on earth) Thank you for this nice reaktion video.

(2008), “the first diagnostically identifiable Cyanobacteria are approximately 2.1 billion years old,” and we suggest that LUCA existed earlier, but in the absence of definite information we do not show a specific date in the figure. According to Fuller the LUCA began with the Eubacteria and the Archea with part of the common Eukarya. But it is in despute (if viruses count as lifeform) it began earlier at up to 3.8 billion years ago. Athel Cornish-Bowden and María Luz Cárdenas made a nice artikel about it "Life before LUCA" 😉👍

Hey. Greetings from Sweden. I have listened to Nightwish since they began in the 90's. You are just like me when you watch these videos. So emotional, and I tear up every friggin time. And it doesn't matter how many times I see them. And I also feel so happy and proud over all the love for their music. Keep doing these reactions. Stay safe and keep your loved ones close. Love from Sweden.

@@WildwoodVagabond Her perfomance in the dutch show "Beste Zangers" is also stellar. It's a dutch show were their most famous artists perfom songs from one another. I recommend it. She really shows, there, that she can sing anything.

Floors parents being at this show….How proud they must be to see the positive and joyous effect their daughter and this incredible band has on thousands of people must be almost overwhelming for them. Sensory overload… Nightwish style. They band that can call it “The Greatest Show on Earth” and deliver on all points both artistic and philosophical …just an incredible adventure in songwriting and performance Excellent reaction

I've been a huge fan of them ever since just before they released their first album back in 1997 (since my friend had somehow obtained the demo album via the internet from hanging around on message boards about this upcoming band). So glad you have found them, every song of them takes you on a journey :) If you ever find a Nightwish song that doesn't click with you, you just aren't ready for that particular song yet, and one day it will click and you will wonder how you didn't realize the genious of the song earlier. This has happened to me a couple of times For other Finnish reactions, maybe do ISMO's (Ismo Leikola) stand up, half of it is in Finnish and half of it is in English. Chivalry is dead, the word Sh*t, and World debt are good ones to start with. Lumilapio :)

@WildwoodVagabond 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! Thanks for your comment. I just made a reaction video to ISMO today for my next finnish Friday video, but I chose Super Excited and The Word Ass -whatever that title is. I will keep those that you recommended in my arsenal for next time. Thank you! I wish I would’ve seen your comment before. Take care. Lumilapio!
