Sorry, can't help it! | Endlessness by Nightwish Reaction 

Endlessness is my favorite! The ending is so sad and epic at the same time. The violins at the end are so beautiful

This song is so dark so sad, so beatifull

Nightwish is so expert at transitioning into complete new areas for the song to evolve into. I had not heard much of this new album. I will have to listen to the whole thing together. i constantly marvel at the genius of Tuomas, not to mention the instrumental mastery of the group as a whole.

I love this song. Marko's voice is so emotional I adore him. Endlessness, Tribal and Noise.

Marko has a Best Of on Spotify it's my go to when I need to chill and be lost in Marko's voice. He compiled it himself with suggestions from fans.

I think that Marco is a little underused on the album. There are not a single power duet with Floor, but great harmonies instead. With this majestic ending song Marco really shines. I don't like ranking songs on the album as solid as this. They are all good songs. There is something for everyone and the quality of lyrics and music is very high. As you said there are challenging singing styles, which we have not heard from them before. I like to see your overall analysis, but as I said I don't like ranking. From only you I can bear it. :- )

The beginning has vibe of doom metal. Love that style

This song is just a masterpiece! It’s my favourite one with Tribal! And the end of this one is so emotionas I can’t stop my tears 😭

This is one of just a few albums for me where every song is amazing. At first I tended to skip Noise and Harvest only because I had heard them so much more than the other songs. Now I just listen to the full album because every song fits perfectly into the experience. The Nature experience in this album seems to be underrated but I find it an essential component for why this album is so remarkable. I can't think of any album from a rock or metal band that takes you on such a journey. The closest I've heard is perhaps Pink Floyd on one of their classic concept albums. When you can be compared to Pink Floyd, you know it's special.

Safe to say this is my favorite Nightwish album. It's the only one i can listen to front to back without skipping any songs. My favorites are Music and How's the Heart.

I love that everybody seems to have different favourites. I can't decide between this, Pan, Music, or Shoemaker. It really is an absolute masterpiece.

First listen I didn't pay too much attention to this song, even thought the first verse sounds a bit weird. But like after a day or two I can't go a single day without hearing this! And I agree with you this might be one of my favorite chorus on this album (sorry but I love Music and Pan a bit more)! I think Marco's voice and his general vibe is perfect for this song. He has a bit of theatricality, a bit of menacing growl, but also a bit of warm, friendly sarcasm to him. For a song about Time, the inevitability of Death, and how we should be at peace with it, his vocal quality really drives the message home. Please totally do the album review video~! Love your analysis.

I have to say, I love this album so much. All the complex and difficult vocals as well as all the instrumentation under the vocals just takes my breath away. I can't pick favorite songs off this album because I love them all for different reasons, but the one that I relate to the most lyric-wise is How's the Heart. I really can't wait to hear what these songs will sound like live.

Very impactfull song and Markos voice is mesmerizing. All the rythm changes are so on point and dramatic. Emppu plays with soul. Eventhough Marko sings everytime there is a chorus in any of these songs it is absolutely heavenly that he got his own song to shine. Loving this. My top3 are Procession, Quiet as the Snow and Pan, the rest of the songs change places on the 4th place depending of my mood 🥰

I also loved the melody in this song. In general I loved the entire album. Harvest was my least favorite. And there's something about Shoemaker that makes me listen over and over. It was probably my favorite one.

Album is amazing. Every song, every second of it!

Unbelievable. What an incredible creation by the genius Tuomas. And what an eerily beautiful vocal by the amazing Marco. Remarkable musical art.

This one is the one I was waiting for... Such an incredible song.

This is one of my favourite songs of the album I also like the melody. Is always a pleasure hear what you have to says about the songs. Great video!

As one of the older Australian Nightwish fans (Century Child onwards) I have to say that this is my favourite track from the album. And I think that this album as a whole may very well be my favourite Nightwish studio album to date!

Been waiting for this one since the day you started! Finally it's there, thank you...

A masterpiece -the whole album..gr8 reactions.......

This song made me chill from the very first time. Its a gem! Heavy and dramatic as you said, and also nostalgic. I see a lot of dark passion play vibes on that The end is just perfect ❤❤❤

Great reaction, thank you!

This one is my favorite from the whole album.

Dust with a meaning, precious and rare. Our relationships while in life. We are all dust, we go back to dust.The Thief is Time, the spark. Oh, this song has layers!

I love the entire álbum!! For me is Majestic, so big! Love how different can be this band after so many years making music, always surprised me, Nightwish it's new everytime.... My favourites of the álbum are Shoemaker, Music, Pan, How's the heart, Tribal, Noise, Endlesness ...

Great! I was waiting for this!

My favorite song from this album, its heavy, with deep lyric abd marco +floor, they just born for each other. Ty Tuomas for this new expirience

My 2 most favorite tracks from this album are Endlessness and Music. Both songs touch something within me. I feel that call to my soul. I also really enjoy Harvest but by far Endlessness reminds me that even though this life will end we somehow will go on.

In fact Marco’s voice is in every single song. 😉 They have mentioned that they wanted more of the harmonies of all three singers, so there are harmonies of all three in each song. Unfortunately Marco’s voice seems to be often overlooked in those harmonies. Of course it’s nice that both Marko and Troy have a song for themselves where they do the lead. 😉🤘

It's one of those songs that seem instantly familiar, even on first hearing. The chorus is to die for! I hear both Muse and Pink Floyd in the melody. I don't know who Marko is meant to represent - maybe the Universe itself? I could just listen to it for hours on a loop - but I might get evicted for doing that! And I can see you're itching to record your version. It would be interesting to hear you sound as sinister as he does in the verses. 😁 And if the London show goes ahead, I'll be even more pissed off than before at not getting a ticket, because Amorphis are one of the support bands! 😭😤🤦

The climax of this song gives one goosebumps. Your reaction is priceless each time there is a new twist - *eyes light up*. 😆

I Love ur reaction, Elvann! ❤❤

Nice to see you back reacting. :) My favvourites are Shoemaker, Endlesness, Noice, Music...well all of them :D

This one is my fave, can't wait to hear it live!

A full album breakdown/analysis? Yes, please!!

It is such a beautiful song. The first and last song of this first album is so great. Opening and closing act amazing

One reason for Marco not having that many parts of his own on the new album could be that he was on tour recently, and in general focused on his own music, with less time for the making of Human Nature. Just a thought I had while watching this video of yours. :-)

Thanks for all your reactions for this awesome album! I'd like to watch a full album review. My personal favorite is Procession (but soooo difficult to choose), I just really love the voice of Floor in it and the emotion she brings

In case you were wondering, this is the first time I'm listening to it too. I was waiting on you. So thank you! Really different style for Marco vocals than anything I've heard, with maybe the exception of The Islander, though that was a very different genre. Amazed how you knew the tempo when singing, especially for this album given how they switched the tempo throughout most of these. I couldn't keep up reading them, much less singing them.

I appreciate your commentaries, very much. I am really looking forward to see your (professional) view on the second disc. For me, it took initially two months, before I got the courage to start listening to this absolute masterpiece, but now I keep on playing it all the time.. I feel privilegded to be able to listen to this band.

Yes, please do a review fot the entire album! Loved your reaction. And yes, singing these new songs live will be a blast, imho. Seeya! Take care!

The chorus definitely reminds me of Dream Theater's Scenes From A Memory. It's also very fitting given the meaning that I'm getting from this song.

would love to hear your overall thoughts on the album. im in love with it. shoemaker, pan, hows the heart and endlessness really reached me

I find it difficult to decide but I think that Endlessness and Music are my favorites from Human Nature. The music and the lyrics really call to my core and they make me feel connected to the world. I really enjoy your reactions to Nightwish!

Oh yes, this is a really worthy ending to an amazing album! For me it's difficult to pick out a eingle song, because they are all on such a high level, and each one has his own charme. But when I have to choose, I take Shoemaker, it's still that one which touches me the most... And as always it's special pleasure to make this amazing journey through Human :Nature with your special reactions and analysisies, dear Elvann:-)

I really loved the whole album and Endlessness is my favourite song.

This album is an amazing listen from start to finish,, composition wise it's definitely a step into new pastures for Tuomas and it works. There is not a weak passage anywhere on this album. I know critically it's been well reviewed, I just hope more than just ardent Nightwish fans get on board with this work of beauty. Loving your reactions Elvann and (as a fellow musician) loving your in depth musical analysis..... although at one point in your Harvest analysis video I did find myself shouting "it's a G minor chord" at the video screen. Please keep up the great work Elvann, both in your personal music which I'm enjoying and your reaction videos. Stay safe out there :)

Marco's vocals made Endlessness my favorite song on the album. Overall, the album was filled with beautiful vocals along with beautiful symphonic music with a spattering of equally beautiful metal mixed in. The Nightwish that I have enjoyed since 2007 and 2 live concerts appears to be changing. For me, Tuomas genius was the main star of Human / Nature as beautiful music is everywhere. What is a no show is intensity and grit in the music and the vocals. Not even one song. Oh well. I'll just listen to more Phantom of the Opera.

Thank you so much for reacting the whole thing, thanks to that I pay more attention tu music. For me, my favorites are Harvest, Music and Endlessness.

Overall HN feels fresh and inspired. Really like this album. In terms of lyrics and especially the subjects I feel like this is the best work Tuomas has written. I mean I don't love everything about the album, but the good stuff is so damn good. 1. Music - Nice idea, fresh sound. Sweet lyrics. Beginning was nice the first couple of times, but got old fast. 2. Noise - Very current subject, but it's basically just Black Mirror with Tuomas' usual touch of hopefulness. Some cool riffs though and I wanna hear Floor scream live. 3. Shoemaker - Beautiful. Love everything about this. The sound, the vocals, the subject. 4. Harvest - Beauty of life and death. Pretty much the same subject as Alpenglow, but fresh sound. Fantastic. 5. Pan - My guess is this is going to be the best song live. Cool sound and very poetic lyrics, but the subject is once again creativity, so nothing new. 6. How's the heart? - Probably closest to every day life out of all the songs? Simple down to earth subject, but this one is impossible not to love. And Floor knocks it out of the park in this one. 7. Procession - I really really like the idea behind the song, and I like the lyrics, but it lacks some oomph. Touching and deep song alone from headphones, but might suck live. We'll see. 8. Tribal - Probably a great live song. The sound, the drums, the grunts and Floor's wail, all great. Subject same as Yours is an empty hope and Weak fantasy, so nothing new. 9. Endlessness - This is just incredible in every way. I can't get over how absolutely gorgeous the subject matter and the lyrics are. The endless flow of energy, entropy, dust to dust and the most beautiful thing is there's meaning in between. It's like a combination of the "We were here" line and Harvest and Alpenglow, but with more of a physics look upon it instead of biology. Makes me think of this piece by Melodysheep ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uD4izuDMUQA.html , but a highly poetic Nightwish version of it. In terms of the band interpreting and performing the music anyone reading this will probably already be familiar with the level of musicianship in this band so, you know. Didn't expect anything less.

I'm a little late to the party but I would enjoy a video of you expressing any and all thoughts on this album and you and Heline were a hoot on your joint reaction.

Your thoughts about the whole album would be interesting to hear for sure. You have listened to those song more now and most likely have different thoughts now than after the first listening 👍

This is the best thing I've ever heard in my life. That ending, that's life. I think they would hear just that sound, if they listened to the universe, because it really plays. How? Just like this 100%

Great song ... and awesome reaction 🍀❤️

It is truly an amazing song. I'm really into it. BTW I'm pretty sure the ""violin"" used at the end is the same as the end of Desert Flower from the Auri album. It sounds similar

Elvann after shooting the last video on the list: Achievement Unlocked - Eternal Reaction, haha. Great work!

To me this is the best song on the album...I love the whole album but this song played in my head before I ever heard it.....haunting and beautiful...powerful and touching

Awesome ending song for the album and good analysis for it.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who tries to mouth the lyrics when it goes on screen XD

I'd love your take on the whole album now that you have done each song individually. I've actually waited and watched you specifically for each song you have commented on. I would find it very interesting your thoughts on the album as a whole. Also do you have any plans for the 2nd album? if so I will take the journey with you. Best wishes! Thank you for what you do.

I would really enjoy a full album review, yes please.

This song, Marko's voice is a real catharsis for me!

I've listened to whole album and for me, my three favourite tracks in no particular order are Harvest, How's the heart and Tribal. I do like the whole album pan, shoemaker and the others but those three are the ones I play the most. I do love very melodic songs and great chorus to sing to in the car. Haha. The technical ones are not as easy to replicate!! Haha

"We are one, we are a universe". Without mankind universe doesn't exist.

Hi Elvann, Endlessness is an amazing ending to this fantastic album where Marko gets to finally sing lol. I think that this song is about the Cosmo's hence the name Endlessness since space seems to be endless to us just my thoughts on the meaning of this song. Love you and your reactions 🤘.

HI Elvann, yes the vocals were great ib this song andin the album... I still miss Emu!!!! and nmre of Marko's vocals, but well.. this is my favorite son musically and vocally... and as you sat.. will be interesting ho do they perform live and how they incorporate more songs in the mood or atmosphere of the show..... See you in the next one!!

I love singing along to this one as well. Only I jump an octave up otherwise it's too low for me. Such a gorgeous song.

With respect, I really do feel that you should attempt to review the songs from the second disc as well. I understand that those are instrumental tracks without lyrics, but tuomas and the others work so very hard on this, and it's the band's first album in 5 years. It would be a shame to miss out on all of their hard work that they did there. Please consider it. They really are wonderful songs.

This is my favorite song in the album and the most moving song for me as well. I try not to use the word "masterpiece" too easily on songs, but I'm tempted to use it on this one. So beautiful and powerful in the same time and lyrics are amazing as well. Love the guitar work too and the entire melody. And that last ~50 sec on the song, just gorgeous! Tribal was my favorite after first listen, but more I listen, more I love this song and now it's clear #1. My top-3: 1. Endlessness 2. Tribal 3. Pan

This is probably my 4th favourite from the album. My Top 3 are Tribal, Pan, and Shoemaker. Harvest is my least liked, but the 2nd half of it is really good. I love Disc 2 as well. Overall, a 98/100 for me, due to not enough solo Marco singing sections, and Harvest being a 4/5 in my opinion compared to every other song being a 5/5. My 2nd favourite album of all time, with my number 1 being Dimmu Borgir's "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia" from 2001, which I give 100/100 (Flawless in my opinion, and atmospheric beyond belief, it takes you to another world).

Hope you do the 2nd cd too it's even more amazing 😁

Nice review on a beautiful song. The song feels as a follow up but also closure of Shoemaker. A similar style of music and voice, those rapid high low tones. Shoemaker lighter as a sort Hello and Endlesness darker as a sort of goodbye. Very nice last track. Cant't wait for their live appearance.

Just revisited this. Gutted we will never hear it live

This is the Marco song of the album

Yes please, @Elvann. Once you are fully rested ;-), please do make a video with your views on the whole album as a whole (where you can maybe also spend a couple of words on CD 2). Thanks!

Thanks for the Journey on this album, i enjoyed your reactions all the way!! did see it all yes.. Ok, lets evalute this album then,.. To me the Album is a masterpiece, and the main reasons for that is, that the lyrics are very intresting to dig in, and the vocals in each song, are very well performed in the sence of expressing the story told in that particular song, , the emotions to the songs are spot on, what i also like is that this album is new Nightwish sound, without not being Nightwish, I might do think Troy actually gets to much space, and Marko´s heavy voice is missing out, but ok this is first album from NW where Troy gets this, and im actually ok with this, just missing Marko´s heavy voice a bit, but you cant put everything on the album, you do have to choose what you want, and what to leave out right, and after all i really like it all.. I do think this is a very clever album composed by Tuomas, and i do respect that man even more after this one, and Floor is amazing, using her voice in various ways, lets just say, they all are Amazing here ok..lol To rank the songs on this album , is almost impossible to me, i might can say clearly my top 3 songs, and the rest could all be nr 4, so dont put to much in, what is on the buttom of this list..lol PAN HOW IS THE HEART SHOEMAKER MUSIC PROCESSION NOISE TRIBAL HARVEST ENDLESSNESS ALL THE WORKS OF NATURE WHICH ADORE THE WORLD Something like that.. TUOMAS COULD BE OUR NEXT KING OF THE WORLD!! i vote for him..lol

Very powerful song. Thanks.

Love your channel elvann. Your comments show your music training. Floor is the ultimate Nordic Viking angel goddess soprano. She was sent to earth to show us mortals what heaven sounds like.

6:15 to 6:47 is my favorite part.. Groovy violin metal, love it!!!!

Funny thing about that chorus melody, it's mostly only two notes, D and Eb, but the chords surrounding it are huge. Fm7, AbLyd, Bbsus2, Cmin, Ab, EbMaj7, Bm (!), B, Cmin, Ab, EbMaj7, Bb

Love this song as well. Perhaps you can cover it, since you were already lipsyncing :-) Another great reaction!

This is a very complex and artistic effort from Nightwish. I like all of the songs, but my favorite so far are Music & Pan. I wish Music was a little longer. I think this song has the best chorus very uplifting and positive message. Great job again Elvann. Loved the songs you performed for us and you compositions as well. Be well beautiful lady.

Great reaction! I can't really pick favourites from this album because each song brings something different and unique. Now that I think about it, HN is my 2nd favourite NW album. Also, I'd be really interested to hear your thoughts on the whole album now that you've had time to properly listen to it. Stay safe, stay healthy!!

Love this song

I’m loving the album, i think “Music” is a great track but I have to say all are beautiful, “Procession” is my least favourite but still extremely enjoyable. I think it would be a great idea to do a complete album review Elvann. I’ve enjoyed all your reactions, it would be nice to see your thoughts after listening and digesting each track properly, as some songs require a few listens to appreciate the song structures, musicality and the deep meanings behind them. Take care and Thankyou,, phenomenal RU-vid channel and am enjoying your original music that I downloaded from iTunes.🤘

He is the best😍

See the bookends to this cd are so perfect! Music & Endlessness. Pan is the other song in my top 3. The whole album is amazing I dont dislike any of the songs i just have some I love more :D

This song reminds me a lot of Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. It’s both faster and slower with this half-time intro and the last part of the song going on.

this song was kinda what made the album for me .. its so dark and different :)

All of the song was unique, but my favorite is Shoemaker and noise.

this song, Procession, How's the heart and Noise are my favorite songs on the album, Pan also was good, but it ended too fast :)

My favorite songs are Tribal, Pan, Endlessness and How's the Heart (you should react to the acostic version).

I like the album very much.My favorite song is Tribal, probably because I do like the heavy stuff. I think Pan and Shoemaker are my next favorites.

For me, while a one from their beginning. This was a album, naturally I like the other albums, but this is more of liking. I know this is like, well, Nightwish, but the album is is for me more of a grower than a shower. Like some Trivium albums. First listen... this is pretty good...after 20 listenings, this album is sick, bro (not why as grown man I'm doing like a bro-things. :D ). I mean Trivium is very well presented and evolved, and very more complex earlier than when they started... but Nightwish too. That's whole lot of...semi-non-sense, but it is my view. This is new, not anything worse. And still love your passion while you're lipsyncing, adorable feat. Nothing to be ashamed. :)

Well, the video makes it clear that they want this album featured in karaoke bars. That would be something to witness.

Hey! If you like Marcos vocals you should check out Nightwish live Wacken 2008 while your lips are still red! He has some powerful vocals here

Procession and how's the heart are the best for me. But i don't think i dislike any of the songs the album is awesome

The narrator in this one is time :)
