IS THIS POSSIBLE? NIGHTWISH - SHOEMAKER║REACTION!! 

Someone stop Tuomas. He's getting too powerful.

Well, Tuomas is a musical genius. In combine with Floor and this top of the notch musicians and singers. Masterpieces.

The Greatest Show On Earth live at Tampere. TRUST ME!

Floor's operatic vocal at the end seriously made my mouth fall open in awe on first listen. She is seriously powerful..

I have followed Nightwish since 1996 and they are seriously getting better and better. They are like growing as a, or should I say THE, band. And Tuomas Holopainen, well he is just unbelieveable genius. This record Hvman. :||: Natvre. It is not from this world, so beautiful and soul touching music, like huge emotional trip. And what you can say about Floor Jansen, there's no words... Her voice is just making me cry

Nightwish has been epic nerds before that even was cool.

The ending brings me to tears every time. SO beautiful!

I don't know how we survive Nightwish songs and their evolution! I've listened to this one a million times and a million times it killed me, the amount of emotion Floor puts in the end plus the music... it's too much to handle!

I’m glad you did the backstory as it makes this video even more powerful. There seems to be someone cutting onions behind me every time I watch this video. That last visual of Sun/Earth/Moon combined with Floor’s voice and choir is so amazing and I just imagine that’s the view from Shoemaker’s final resting place. 🤘

It’s because you haven’t heard THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH yet. This should be your next song reaction

Man, I have THAT face everytime i hear Nightwish since their album "Once" went on air. And it happened in 2004. So dont be ashamed to look like under a spell. Actually its the best feeling you can get listening to any type of music.

Tuomas really is a modern mæstro. Absolute genius.

This song is probably one of my favourites of the new album! Floors voice is just amazing in it!

Laudato si (Praise be to you) - Ad Astra (To the Stars). In Latin. Did you notice the final view is watching the Earth set from the Moon?

The whole album is a masterpiece. Ty for doing this.

Who is more excited about their live performances rather then the studio version?

Shoemaker was not the only guy not burried on Earth because there were people "burried" in space like Gene Roddenberry, for example. But he is the only person that's burried on another celestial body. :) And omg this song, can't wait for the live concert in May. I want to experience this live finally, at least virtual live.

Nightwish is a band full of genius's. Every member knows how to tell a story together as a group. To me that is more impressive than any soloist out there.

It's time to react to The Greatest Show On earth live from Tampere.

I know there are great singers out there. What sets Floor apart is how powerful, and the emotion she puts into the songs. I have never heard anyone else that draws these kind of emotions from people even without the lyrics. She is so amazing. I have been reading and watching reviews about this album. I know not everyone is going to like it. What I don't understand how in the h*ll!!! that they cannot hear how grand Floor, the music, the musicianship, Tuomas's composing and lyrics are. There are some that have acknowledged their talent. I think people have got to start getting the genre of symphonic metal out of their minds for this band. I don't think Nightwish fits into any one genre. I think they are their own genre. Thank you for looking up the info about this song and sharing it. That makes the song mean so much more. And I know Tuomas's lyrics are sometimes hard to figure out. That is why getting some info helps. Also I appreciate the time you spend on your reactions and that they are well thought out. I look forward to hear what you think about the other songs you have not done yet. Please take care and stay safe.

Tuomas doesn't write songs, he crafts art.

Tuomas is out of this world. In my entire life I have never experienced a band that knows how to innovate again and again in such an artistic way. I am really grateful that I got to know this band. The decided number 1 for me. ❤️️🤘🙏

I just were there in Tampere and in Helsinki concerts last weekend. And this amazing masterpiece was played in both shows. I am so blessed I heard this live ❤️

The only problem I have with Nightwish is its impossible to work to as I’m always rocking out, singing along & getting rippling floorgasms I never get any work done 🤣🤘... Loving your review reactions and your zany thoughts. It’s great to what this journey into music and sharing it with us all. Much love, peace & respect. Stay safe🤘

I heard that the Shakespeare verse was narrated by Tuomas' wife.

Your “musical Mozart” has a very good eye for the talents surrounding him and pushes himself and his colleagues to the limits of their abilities. The result is this wonderful music. I love the diversity and excellence of the album Human Nature. Thanks for reacting to one of the songs. Do yourself a favour and listen to a couple of others and enjoy. Stay safe.

What a great gift has been given to Tuomas, Floor, Marko, Empuu, Kai and Troy...that is the ability to make super music for all to enjoy, while they all get to make a living doing what they love to do.

Nightwish is simply the best band in the world. Best music, best ALL.

I am so fascinated by Nightwish and I just cannot understand how someone does not even know them. So now I watch reaction videos because I need people in my life who share this passion!! This band is not making songs, they make experiences! The more you listen to their songs, old and new, the better they get, the more one finds new details, the more unbelievable one feels. Tuomas and Co. are truly making something unique, and one cannot compare them with anyone / anything else.

I'll say it again.. Tuomas will go down as one of this generations greatest lyricists and composers. Enough said!! As always listen, appreciate, and enjoy!! God Bless!!!

This song is AWESOME... The first time I heard it, I cried... so emotional... Great reaction!

Glad you researched that back story, it makes the song so much more appreciable. Much better than "What does Nightwish have to say about shoe makers?" (which seem to be most reactions to this song), trying to find some metaphor for a maker of shoes in the song. Also when you read the Romeo & Juliet quote from Shoemaker's urn, without realizing it (yet) you were reading part of the song. Great reaction to a great song.

Really enjoyed your reaction. You're probably right, one day Tuomas is going to compose something that will send us all into another realm of existence. But what a trip it will be lol.

I love your reactions to Nightwish and your appreciation for their immense talent.

Greetings from Finland & thanks for this reaction to yet another masterpiece by Nightwish. In a recent Q&A Floor told that while every other song on this new album was relatively easy for her to sing, but the operatic part of this song took several takes, and she was only able to get it the way Tuomas & she liked by doing the vocals at home with the choir also added into the mix.

It is so true what you are saying.Nightwish is definitely an experience,it's like they are telling you a different story every time which just gets better and better.And Tuomas writing abilities are beyond human understanding.He is more than a genuis,very very few people are able to create such powerful songs and provoke so strong emotions and feelings! You have to react to The Poet and The Pendulum live at Wembley😍😍That song is one the greatest achievements of Tuomas as a composer and the singing of Floor is angelic🥰🥰

I must admit this song almost made me cry, but the one that DID make me cry was ad astra 🤔 epic carl sagan + nightwish = FEELINGSSSS xD

You have just given the best reaction to Nightwish in my opinion....."Nightwish is an experience". Each & every song tells a story that has you glued to your seat in amazement! I love watching your reactions to them!

Nightwish grabbed my heart n soul years ago.... They are an unstoppable force that just has no limits.

oh damn, this song always gets me, looking forward to your reaction

I love your reactions and I love the fact that you did your homework about Shoemaker and know the band members name 🤟🏻 Shoemaker is great song, and the whole album is a masterpiece. Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱

You said it before: Modern Mozart. Please also react to 'How's the Heart' from this album. Floor also did a acoustic version of the song with Troy. But both the album version and the live one are amazing.

It often takes many listens for me to fully appreciate many of their songs.

Metal Mozart is the perfect descriptor. I hate having to wait so long for a new album (even though their past albums still seem fresh), but it’s so worth the wait! 🤘🏻 I honestly feel kinda bad for people who never get to hear them or who can’t see or feel the magnificence of Nightwish pieces. The music puts you in a state of being that is apart from any other band. Different dimensions is right. 😂 I live in one permanently because of Nightwish! 🥰🎶🤘🏻 Also, Shoemaker 🌔 was the dude who discovered the comet that plunged into Jupiter, giving astronomers a chance to see something never witnessed by human eyes before. I believe the comet was called Shoemaker-Levy 9 (?) The pictures the scientists got were astonishing. ☄️💥

Every time i listen to this song, i get on this journey, with Shoemaker, and hes fantastic story, and its a good story, quite poetic to, so i get the story, and the beauty.. truely a great song, and a good thing that Tuomas do read a lot of books..lol Laudato Si Ad astra Means Prasise be you, to the stars

I stopped trying to make sense of it a while ago. Nowadays, I just have goosebumps and cry. Tears of happiness, epicness or sadness. I just cry.

Good Lord, what a beutifull morning to me. Your face was brillant. I love this masterpiece. Floor in the interview say that Music and Shoemaker was a big vocal challenge to her. It's right, both song have very complex, progresive structur. At the moment, Tuomas is one of the best composer in the world. He mix a beutifull, strong Floor voice and soft and Warm Troy voice. I think that this song is the best tribute to Mr. Shoemaker and his work. Fun fact. This song isn't first Nightwish tribute to someone. Try High Hopes from End of the Era show.

oohh thank you so much for the history, that already made me cry , being burried on the moon

They are not just creating music like others... They are destroying you emotionally through your ears. This band is on godlike level now with Floor and Troy and you can hear that with them Tuomas has the power again to create music like noone else can.

You're describing it to the point in the end. I've seriously been wondering how Tuomas is going to top this, i can't imagine being so blown away by an album another time. Great reaction!

I love this song. Expecially the end! OMG 😮♥️♥️

Cualquier trabajo de nightwish te deja con la boca abierta y con los pelos de punta, y Floor es impresionante como puede utilizar su voz de múltiples formas. Un saludo desde Burgos (España). Muy buen vídeo, sigue así.

How it is possible: a good story in history, a bit of pipes (Floor’s and Thor’s) and a touch of Tuomas and Kai, and the strings of Emppu and Marko. And there you go

Here in Brazil this song was a shock, because we have a very large audience about the Nightwish community and we heard about the song "Shoemaker" because there was a preview by Tuomas to honor a scientist in one of his songs and it was "Eugene Shoemaker".

You get it man. EXACTLY. It ain't music anymore. It's a blast into the universe

Great reaction! Just liked and Subscribed!

Are you wondering how you can survive the studio experience just think of you listening to this live! It’s most Nightwish long for , their albums are great, but live it’s epic and lifetime experiences, next I would suggest Tribal if you haven’t reacted to it already!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

How is this possible....one word Tuomas. 🤣 ow boy...I will love the Tribal reaction..me Thinks! ...🖐

your reaction warmed my heart :)

Love watching your Nigthtwish reactions!! Please do The Poet and the Pendulum (wembley) and The greatest show on earth (Tampere) soon. They are such meaningful songs on their discography

Even this masterpiece only true NW-fan appreciates enough. This is Art. Thank you☺️.

You're absolutely right when you say that they create experiences, I feel that's the main reason why they are so loved around the world

Is it just me or is that the most beautiful end to any song ever?

Sky is the limit doesnt apply on Tuomas,even universe isnt the limit apparently... I love this song, that last part makes me cry.. and Floors voice? Not from this world..She found the perfect band and they found the perfect singer to be the best of themselfs... I wish they would come to Greece to see Floor singing this live...

Tuomas Holopainen (the song writer) is from Finland. Those sounds and lyrics comes from here, Finland. Melancolyness and epicness is written in our (Finns) genes! Tuomas has ability express our feelings perfectly! ;)

Nice and appropriate reaction ;) You got an instant subscribe, never did that before :)

That ending is everything!

Yet your best Nightwish reaction ! All points going for the research ! Tuomas please !

Great to have another video from you. I still hate RU-vid's supposed notification system for my subscriptions such as yourself which is why I'm a bit late to the party. Stay healthy my friend and keep 'em coming!

Ok that’s it...you got me to subscribe to your channel. I LOVE this song...imagine this song live...OMG!!! Oh great reaction btw!!!

Awesome comment of the week; “ I don’t know what is going on with metal Mozart but...” Thanks for a great laugh - his talents are once in a generation at best...

to create a song like this is really something. toumas creates it all, and it sounds amazing, but you don't want to be able to create it. only a few people have the capacity to function well with the amount of mental processes that come with it

Fun fact: Tuomas recorded this song on the actual Moon for better acoustics.

They are able because Tuomas Holopainen is a genius composer, and Floor Jansen is a genius singer, and the other bandmembers are fantastic too....

You are a lucky man. I have wait over 50 years for this music. I repeat the others, its time for "The greatest Show on Earth" in Tampere 2015

Lol told you, you will be blown from your chair ... Your face was telling enough again ... I hope they will be here in the Netherlands in November .. but seeing how the crisis is going .. maybe we need to wait a little longer ... and i am actually learning the Tribal dance ... lol But to this album you said this song is an experience .. Yes it is ... and sometimes in this album, you need to learn the song to know .. as sometimes i had something like .. ehm... ok ... but then when hearing it more and more .....listening to the lyrics , listening to the instruments ... This is like you said an experience ... Great reaction as always johnny

You're funny and excellent reactions. And very helpful to read the background for us too. I've learnt something now. Thank you

your reactions are amazing - thanks!

Epic stuff. Can't wait for the live tour (which should've been this year, but probaly pushed back to atleast end of this year).

Nightwish is amazing, and Shoemaker is really good, but there are many other epic, symphonic, folk, viking, melodic and other metal bands to discover, and variety is the spice of life, after all.

I LOVE YOUR REACTION ON THIS MASTERPIECE❤

Answer: Tuomas Holopainen is a genius... (And so is Floor Jansen, and the rest of the band

Yesss Nightwish = experiences. That's exactly it

Not of this earth ! Nightwish takes Music to a unbeliefable next level, can only be done with superb musicians and they are 🤘🤘🤘

Wonderful reaction as always🙂

The moment that Laudato Si Ad Astra starts... i blame the onions.

It sounds like you are ready for The Poet And The Pendulum 😉. Make sure to do your research on this song as well! This is the most emotional song and most personal song Tuomas ever wrote. If you know the story behind the song, it will hit you right in the face. And then, as a bonus, do The Greatest Show On Earth. That one is their best song, and it has a very positive message! 😉 Keep going!

Toummas is a very inspired genius!! Is like midas king, And all the members are great artists, Floor is a godess with the most beatiful, angelical and powerful voice, just perfect!!!

Floor is just so POWERFUL.

there is a great analysis from Guylain Prince (french with english subtitles) for the first 4 songs till now. (music, noise, shoemaker and harvest) always worth a listening.

I'm waiting for this one! My favorite song!

Yesssss, I was waiting for this!!! It is my favourite song of the album along with ad astra. Next you should try the greatest show on earth - tampere version and the poet and the pendulum at Wembley. You will be blown away. Keep them coming, I love your reactions!

I love the story behind the song, the references in the images....the way the worded it about the Scientists ashes on the moon en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Merle_Shoemaker

If this gave you goosebumps, you also need to hear The Poet and the Pendulum at Wembley. Please for your own soul, listen to that one. It’s so powerful and deep in meaning...

I would like SO MUCH the reaction to "Tribal"... If this one almost gives you a Heart Attack, man that one is gonna send you straight to the Morgue lol! xD

This is the same reaction I had with Shoemaker except I think I ended up crying on the floor 😂 It's really out of this world! 😃

nightwish being the ultimate emotion conductor for me

Great reaction 😁

Shoemaker is the only human buried on a celestial body other than earth, but not the only one "buried" in space in general. Some of the ashes of Clyde Tombaugh, the discoverer of Pluto, were sent to space with the New Horizons probe.

An interesting detail. Laudato si' is also the name of a book by Pope Franciscus from 2015. It's subject is "On care for our common home".
