I'm so excited that there is a NEW Nightwish song! Not just new to me for once - but new to everybody! 😂 Let me know what you think of this one! And also.. do you ever get emotional just listening to them? I know some of you have said so before.. and I was a little taken off guard that this happened to me today! 💛

Thank you Nikki !! It's great to discover new Nightwish songs in sync with you for the first time, or at least with only a few hours of delay, instead of months or even years. So glad that you enjoyed it, I did too ! We need more artists like Tuomas who dare not to care about what labels or streaming services want. He want the first single to last more than 8mn ? so be it !!

@nikkireviews 2 месяца назад

Thank you for being here for it! 💛 And I totally agree, Tuomas is just amazing..how he can put to words (and bring to life) what he is feeling and thinking in such a beautiful way is just..an amazing talent. 💫

Hey. 124 Spider here. Honestly, if all children in their first school years had heard this song and read the lyrics, I'm sure that today... all of humanity would be much more cohesive and kind to each other. I had never thought about how I got here, today, alive. If anyone still had doubts that Nightwish ARE THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD, right now?. So I just have to say that humanity is no longer thinking for itself. It's the "NEW" AI that everyone talks about, but they don't even pay attention to what it means. NIGHTWIH FOREVER SINCE EVER.

The most part of society is braindead. Tuomas is unique. A poet and philosopher. Every civilization has it's downfall. Nightwish gives me that little bit of hope. Though it might be grasping on to straws, I know I lived my life to the fullest and aware. Nightwish for life 🤟

Nikki, your big, genuine smile throughout the video says it all. I suspect most of us had that smile today seeing it for the first time (and the second, and third, etc 😊). Loved you comments at the end as always. Love how thoughtful you are. Very cool. Take care ❤😊🤘✌️

There is so much going on its hard to take in all at once. There is Tuomas genius composition, Floor's Vocals, Emppu's perfect riffs, Jukka's crunchy bass, the Pneumatic Hammer Kai, and Troy the Jack of all Trades. It's blended in with elements of Endless Forms Most Beautiful, Human:||:Nature, Auri, and even elements of Floor's solo career!! This song is 🌋🌋🌋!!!

Of course we'll listen again with you. Only like the 4th time for me because of work. And we don't mind 2 Nightwish songs in 1 week either. 😁 Pretty much a mini movie. Knew the intro would be great ,but D*mn, wasn't expecting this epic. Yeah, a ton of details, gonna take many many views to catch them all. 😊 You're right, that is Troy near the end. I'm kind of like you in that paying attention on first few listens, just now starting to rock out to this.

@oktober-vh6gl 2 месяца назад

that concept that in the last 400 years, about 12 generations, it took over 4k people so that you could exist. "You are the dream of many ancestors." What a mind-blowing thought... and leave it to Tuomas to find a way to put that to song...

@jimharris367 Месяц назад

Wonderful reaction Nikki, you give the music the respect it deserves, you absorb it and your face shows that it affects you deeply. I knew this would resonate with you because you have an old soul - which is a compliment by the way. I think the great majority of Nightwish fans are similar sorts of people, and we've gone through life often feeling 'other'. Maybe this is partly why we feel so passionately about the band (and to a point Metal generally), we found them, we found each other 🤘

@user-cq8sv6pf6p 2 месяца назад

Hi Nikki. I just wanted to say, before I press play, that I was going to wait until tomorrow (my bday) to hear this song for the first time. Unfortunately for me, it seems every channel I watch decided to react to it today so that kinda left me without another (new) Nightwish reaction to watch. I guess I'll go ahead and see what Tuomas has in store. Here we go!!! 😁😁

@nikkireviews 2 месяца назад

I can see wanting to wait but it's hard! You'll have to let me know what you thought. 😊 And Happy (early) Birthday! 💛

@ytcag2007 2 месяца назад

@@nikkireviews I'm a bit speechless!! I loved it! The words of a DJ come to mind (regarding another song).... "It is everything you know Nightwish to be, but like nothing you've heard before!" - Eric Clatk - That was certainly a journey. I love all the surprises in this song, especially the ending, how everything comes to a halt. Yes, the lyrics could've gone up a notch or two, but I'm sure Tuomas wanted the listener to focus more on the music. Great message and emotional song altogether. By the way, is there a way I can get something to you? A P.O. Box? Let me know. And I'll probably have to tell you what it is so that you don't end up getting it. Actually, there are varieties so we'll may have to talk about that. Let me know, and thank you for my birthday. ❤️

Another thoughtful reaction, thank you Nikki. I found it took more than one listen to get a grip on it and I love complex music like that. I hear elements of songs from Human :||: Nature, not a complaint, it gives a feeling of continuity to where Nightwish are now in their evolution. Can't wait for the new album ...

2, 3, 10, go for it Nikki! Love the shirt! Quite the journey again. We love your honest and passionate reaction. Over the top is not required Nikki. I think you understand perfectly. This is like a movie soundtrack. Nightwish is music for the curious kind. Deep thought is part of life. Especially if you slow down and forget about the noise. Every story worth checking out takes time to develop. I think it is Yester - wind with an Eye sound. Like winding time backwards on a clock.

There’s been a bit of a mixed reaction to this, no idea why? To me it represents an evolution of their music in a great way; very creative writing by Tuomas, a masterpiece in fact, heavier but not overbearing. Enjoyed your reaction and emotional response, I was a bit choked up by it too - well it’sFloor isn’t it 😂

@nikkireviews Месяц назад

Yeah, and that's the one thing I really like about Nightwish is that they always have the heaviness but also the smoothness and beauty of Floor's voice that ties it all together so nicely. ☺️

@markclements7767 2 месяца назад

Hi Nikki, greetings from UK This was really great, thank you 🥰 Now that I have had time to think about it, if you imagine a timeline running along your arm and each human is a scent molecule, you can note in general the effect that humans have had in the world not by looking at them and their effect on each other or on the planet, but in this case, assigning a smell to them. What that perfume would smell like would depend how you assign each scent to an action humans take or their effect for better or worse This is pretty subjective as it would be you assigning the smell based upon what you think to be good or bad, but it is a different way of looking at human history and deciding if it is a pleasing scent or not? This is just my take on this 😊

@stpfs9281 Месяц назад

"Her perfume deafens me" from "Song of Myself", I think Tuomas may have a bit of Synesthesia, along with being a "Highly Sensitive Person"!

A week with 2-Nightwish nights?? that seems like an idea with possibilities.. here we will be no doubt, almost perfect song my opinion, i think Queen`s voice is a little low on the chorus, supposedly by the band choice, the more you repeat the song it gets you more so, it`s passable that voice detail.. keep rocking and stay safe!

Only Tuomas could make an 8+ minute song seem too SHORT!

@glenngunnis6642 2 месяца назад

Tuomas leaves his music up to some interpretation. It may change with your mood or circumstances. He is a master at that. He can also cause many emotions so your teary eyes are perfectly normal and ok. The music is supposed to move you!🤘🎸

I think sperm whales are prominently featured because they produce ambergris. Basically whale poop. It is used, among other things , to make perfume. Fossilized ambergris are millions of years old, hence the title- "Perfume of the Timeless".

@rolandconnor575 2 месяца назад

I love your Nightwish commitment, they are my favorite band, but I am realistic enough to know that probably nothing on this album will be able to match compositions like "Endlessness" and so many others in the past. Every artist peaks, you can't be as creative as Tuomas has been forever. Compared to their former catalog, this is a bit tiresome, compared to all other forms of music out there, this is almost great. I still look forward to a tour in 2026 and even Marko rejoining in some capacity -"If they can do something about how they manage the business side of things", he says.

@lekalla 2 месяца назад

I can see if Marko was to come back to the band there would be considerations about the "business side of things" or talks about it but one time guest appearance i don't think so.

@TheRealRedAce 2 месяца назад

I was a great Nightwish fan....up until the sudden total change of style that seemed to begin with the last album. Now I don't know anymore. Has Tuomas lost his muse? I know some love the new style, but me? Its like a totally different band - and I think it isn't for me.

@jonathanratliff4780 2 месяца назад

Pleasant song, but not a bone chiller….lost a lot of steam last few years. But still pleasant music. Try some Therion, or Dimmu Borgir, or Fleshgod Apocalypse symphonic metal or Epica also…. but indeed those may be too heavy for you

@JBeetje73 Месяц назад

Every reaction video I see it's clear that the good video is masking the weak song. A lot has been said about it, but the vocal mix is really terrible. "That's the way it should be," say a number of people, well if that's the way it should be you are no good as a producer. This way you seriously disappoint a strong vocalist like Floor Jansen. Then the song itself, Nightwish ripples on on the old, existing same thing as if there is no more inspiration. This song is a kind of compilation with all kinds of things that have already been done.

@nikkireviews Месяц назад

I agree with you about the mix! And that the video kinds of masks people noticing that cause it certainly did for me. I thought it was a little muffled or something while I was listening but thought it was maybe just a "me thing" and didn't want to say it lol. But I've seen a lot of people talk about it since posting. I saw Nightwish Arena (@NightwishArena) posted a video where they lifted Floor's vocals a bit. I'll link it here in case you haven't seen it. It sounds much better than the original! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8MzLwRo72EM.html

@JBeetje73 Месяц назад

@@nikkireviews Thanks for the link, it does indeed sound better if Floor's vocals are more prominent. All in all, this song is again a song that will come out much better live, I think, but unfortunately, like the latest reports that Nightwish will not be performing for a long time, we will have to wait a few years for that.
