    Well done Sarah for picking up those references to other music. It basically goes the history of music in less than 20 seconds to illustrate how short it is compared to the whole evolution

    And Sarah got it right. They had little pieces of different musical genres at one point. The song is about the evolution of everything, so Tuomas thought it was a great idea to also ad the evolution of music.

    Nightwish packing 4.6bn years into 20minutes and the result is pure awesomeness! 😊

    The song is about the evolution of the Earth, biology and life. And a little section has the evolution of music, with Minuet in G Major and Metallica's classic Enter Sandman riff followed by some electronic dance music.

    Deepest hole created, when Marco left the band. No one else comes close to him. No one will replace him.

    Her dress has two reverences, the finnisch Flag (blue/white) and the structure of DNA.

    The song is based on the book The Greatest Show On Earth: The Evidence For Evolution by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins. That’s him doing the spoken word bits. The song covers the evolution of the universe, the planet, life, the rise and eventual fall of mankind. Tuomas studied biology in school and Floor wanted to be a biologist when she was a kid. They are a very science-y band.

    Teachers: How should we teach evolutionary history?

    The timing of the fireworks is actually made possible because they used the signal from the band's clicktrack. Nightwish uses clicktracks to synchronise their performance with the orchestral / choral backing track and the visuals. These days fireworks engineers use a similar kind of system to program their displays. So it was in fact not that hard for Tuomas to play in synch with the fireworks. The hard part was done by the fireworks engineer in preparing it.

    This was the concert that also Floor's parents were in the crowd. That's also why she seemed extra emotional

    This is my fave of the big 3. I’m a biology/science nerd and so this song checks all the boxes for me. Lyrically , musically, vocally …masterpiece. I love the first piano piece as it makes you feel like nothingness and just floating though space then “bang” the collisions and beginnings of Earth then early life forms, then more advanced life, then humans are the last piece and the change of tone/music as well as the relative length of discussion of humans in comparison to the rest of song is like the fact that humans are a speck in the time of Earth’s evolution over 4.6 billion years. I love the fact the cameras caught the twins in this song (DNA personified in the identical twins) and Floor’s dress is perfect double helix (even the rivets would correlate to the DNA base pairs and how connect). We were here indeed🤘

    The greatest show on earth is the evolution, biology and life. As we are part of this, we can say: WE WERE HERE!!!

  • @Duskwind_

    100% guaranteed that we will be watching them perform this song in front of 3,000 people in NYC. At the end of the concert we will be able to say 'WE WERE HERE!' while we're standing in the rubble of what once was Terminal 5 🤘

    Fyi - Troy starts by playing an Irish Tin Whistle (same instrument from the Titanic theme). Later, he plays the Uillean pipes, also known as the Irish pipes, which is a relative of Scottish bagpipes.

    What a fantastic band....they even give credit to the bus drivers! How cool is that?! 👍🏻💖

    The bagpipes are real bagpipes, not electronic, they are so called Uillean Pipes i.e. Irish bagpipes. They are the more evolved version of the standard bagpipes where instead of blowing into them Troy has a set of bellows strapped to him which operates with this right elbow. And if I am not mistaken he can also switch tunings because it has several sets of playing pipes attached to it.
