It really is an astonishingly good album, and the more you listen the more you get out of it - those who dismissed it after hearing a song or two have really messed up imho 🤘
I love all live music, it's hard to pick a favorite. I do have some of my music posted already, but I'm branching out into different genres and I'll be releasing more of a pop album next year
@@Amiekinz4ever nice you envoy over the years when you hear new music.but at the end of the day al music been played for centuries.only difference now .New instruments
It's so nice to be able to sit on the other side of the Atlantic in little Denmark and not quite understand the lyrics that come out of Tuomas's head, and then sit and be enlightened by you, so the songs make even more sense and become even better. Thanks for the great reactions 😊
60 times to the sun and back , can be 120 years, when Tuomas wrote the song (around 2021/22) was more or less 120 ,years since the discovery of the mechanism in 1901.
Lucy is a 3.2 million-year old fossil skeleton of a human ancestor, symbolically regarded as the first human being. She's also mentioned in The Greatest Show On Earth. From her prints to those of the man in the Moon means: the whole story of Humankind. If you have seen 2001 Space Odissey they deal with the same topic
Troy is indeed 60 though whether that is the reference is unclear (Tuomas wrote it and is 47, but he knew he would have Troy singing it). Parts of this song are definitely earworm material. As usual, the complexity that sets Nightwish apart from all others and that makes Tuomas such a great composer. Lucy indeed refers to Lucy of the Afar or Hadar (see The Greatest Show on Earth) rather than Lucy van Dahl. Early primitive man to the advanced man that reached the moon.
Watch the movie Lucy.Where Lucy in a chair in a swamp ,meet a ape called Lucy.the oldest skeleton of a female so far.theirs another 8 females where we get our nda.Also the oldest computer in the world.
Thanks for another great reaction to this amazing album. The only thing I would want to correct you on is the name of the album. It's not Yesterwind but Yesterwynde (as in Wind a clock, rather than wind blowing)
