![[BEST REACTION EVER] Nightwish - Poet and The Pendulum | First Time | TomTuffnuts Reacts](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/FgGRJ4lxySc/mqdefault.jpg)
Man, reactions like this are why reaction channels exist. No matter how many times I've heard this song, watching it through a reactor like you helps me relive the song as if for the first time. You truly did this masterpiece justice. Thank you!
@Duke Dash Nope. No one cares about spambots.
@Brysen Martin No. No it does not look promising.
Oh well...Here comes my 2693492nd time listening to this masterpiece.
Never gets old
I thought I was doing well. You've watched it 11 times more than me! ;-)
If I calculated correctly, that youâve been listening to the Poet and the Pendulum for more than 60 years straight, no pauses.
I see nothing wrong with that. đ
@@OrdinaryCritic You made me laugh so loud I woke up one of my dogs...
Watch more then, your running behind me ;-)
You are absolutely right. First lyric of the song "the end" and last one "the beginning". This is an absolute masterpiece. Genius.
I know that this song was not written for floor to sing, yet i think no-one could have done it better.
I could not agree more. She is amazing.
or she was the one born for this song. no, nightwish tbe
Before Floor arrived, during rehearsal Marco sang the song, I wonder if any recording exists
"Three minutes and counting" to the throat slit gesture... is three minutes. There is no limit to this man's genius, putting a song together.
Yep, Tuomas is a genius.
"You have such ocean's within" so profound and always touching to hear those words.
Search for beauty
find you shore
try to save them all
bleed no more
Those words are worth a life credo... ofc your verse belongs to it.
After listening to this masterpiece, probably 200 times, you are one of only a few reactors that really get it....This was my pleasure to watch you, not only this song, but all your other reactions....As a Pink Floyd fan all my life, I discovered Nightwish 3 years ago, listening to them every day, I still can't believe the talent this band brings to every song they perform....My wife and I will be 77 years old when we finally get to see them in New York next year....Stay well Man, and thank's again....
I think this is the most personal song I've ever heard in my life. I never manage to hold back the tears on the mother's speech at the end... So beautiful, so emotional, and Floor, being hypersensitive, interpreted the lyrics like no one else could.... Tuomas is a genius and this is definitely his masterpiece!
Breathe, breathe... you're safe. Remember Tuomas came through this; and in the end there's a new beginning. In the end - You are always loved.
I am 61 years old and I have heard this hundreds of times. And tears every time. Thank you. WOW!
You are not alone....I'm the same way. This song has gotten me through some hard times in my life.
I love how the other band mates gathered around Tuomas at the end to comfort him... I have no other words
I know right, you can tell that they all care about each other.
Great reaction. Now you know why the fans say wait, it changes from a great song to an emotional masterpiece. You did yourself proud, I'm always so grateful when a reactor takes the time for this one. Awesome job brother.
Yes, this song is about depression. But Tuomas wasn't depressed for kicking Tarja out. The way the fans reacted to it, and all the hustle around it, made him feel he has let the fans down.
You know, in this times, the finish Primemister, invivite Tuomas, but than he cancelled it..after the open Letter? What a Troll..
10:00 the camera focus on Tuomas while Floor sings so beautifully, and he looks almost fragile, if not broken, I just want to reach out and hug him
To me, Floor's voice represents the sadness and despair Tuomas must have felt at the time, while Marko represents the anger and frustration with the whole situation, is a rollercoaster of emotions
Well done brother. This is a hard song to get through for all of them, especially for Floor because of her hypersensitivity. The band just pushes through it and supports each other during the song. Such a beautiful song, but it always wrecks me. Much love and stay safe, my friend.
Wrecks me too. . . . . . .
And the timing! From the whispered "3 minutes and counting....."... 3 minutes later, Tuomas "Cuts" his head off!
Amazing!!
Just wanted to write...
That is truly a masterpiece.
It is masterpiece. I was at Wembley, and Nightwish are always playing loud - but here in this song, Floor's voice just smashed our spines. Her voice, sorrow and emotions surrounding us was something I have never experienced before - combined with Marco's desperate vouce.... I cry and feel this one every time I hear it.
I can't imagine any other band that are able to do anything close to this, hitting the crowd that hard and effective.
And your reaction - you felt it - and it grows every time you listen to it from now on.
Super job of you đ€đ€đ€đ€
You might consider doing 2 more epic songs - not sad but just phenomenal.
Wembley: 7 days at the wolves
And
Tampere 2015: The Greatest Show on Earth. They did this one on Wembley too, with Richard Dawkins on Stage, but the Tampere version is more spectacular - they are actually quite different. At Wembley Troy uses the E-bow and Tampere flute and Uillean pipe.
!!! Remember to stay on until the very end - they speaking is an important part of the song - 24 minutes of pure deep deep gold
And here's a link to Greatest show on earth from Tampere: czcams.com/video/bl6lUfIMkGM/video.html
Note that Floor's parents are in the audience, which you can see in this documentary:
A Documentary about Floor's music school reunion with behind-the-scenes and interview from Tampere 2015: czcams.com/video/B3NIfu0qvtg/video.html
Yep GSOE right to the end, through the credits.
You are so lucky to have seen this show.It looks amazing from what I've seen on CZcams. Hopefully,I'll be seeing them for the first time in Wembley Arena next May.I can't wait to see them perform the new album too. I've only been a fan for a short time but I'm already obsessed with them Lol.
Every damn time I watch, I cry. AND I don't want my tears back.
forgive me i have two faces... The Nightwish Army feels just like you. the North German Division "KIEL" of the Nightwish Army reports !! We are there. Greetings to DĂ€nrmak, Norway, Sweden and Finland.special greetings to #GabrielBardac
and of course the rest of the army
@14:57 - I find this moment magical. You can just barely see the silhouettes of many swaying arms and hands, as if they are spreading their love for Tuomas in the air for him to breathe it in.
Loved that it is a Masterpiece of music and lyrics, sung to perfection. Thankyou.
From a Nightwish sister to a new Nightwish brother..................you just GET it. This is not just a song it's an experience.
Nightwish is a lifetime journey with full of emotions, humanity etc â€ïžđđ»đ€đ«đź
Thought I'd find a comment from you here ;) (It's me, Staffan) :)
@@diosyntaxa Hahhah. Hello there đ€đđ»â€ïž
You nailed it my friend. From anguish to anger to sadness, and frustration. Nowhere to run. You just have to live through it and find yourself again. He buried his emotional anguish in the ground and found a way to move forward. They don't play it often and may never again. wonderful job! Peace.
NASA (Nightwish Army Scottish Allegiance) I lost my daughter to Cancer in 2019 and I was struggling badly ....... then I listened to `While your lips are still Red' the lyrics struck home and I wept!
I'm sorry for your loss
I cry EVERY time! Just because I know the backstory. I have been listening Nightwish since I was a child (yes Im a fin)..I have survived from depression, so glad Tuomas did too!
Master piece...the soul of Tuomas...beautifull đ„đ€
Your opening appraisal was concise and accurate, well done for that Rocky. The "boy" is a recurrent theme of Tuomas persona because of his happy and fulfilled childhood, poet, writer and dreamer also. The end part titled Mother & Father wrecks me, and others I think, as it is nearly verbatim of what Tuomas' parents said to him in that desperate time.
Floor's delivery and emotion is again perfect.
You did it full justice Rocky, I applaud.
Yes... Nightwish is an emotion, and I need nightwish everyday. đđđ
Edit: after listening to this songs a thousand times, I didn't expect part 3 and part 5 to destroy me like they did đđđ shit... Lmao
This song is a Masterpiece and the most personal song for Tuomas about his pain, what he went through after letting Tarja go from the band.
I have listened this many times, the lyrics touch me so deep.
The part "I cannot cry, cause the shoulder cries more"
One interpretation has been that Tuomas couldn't go to Tarja and cry on her shoulder, because Tarja was also in pain and was crying more. So he had to be stronger.
And the final part "Mother and Father" every single time brings tears in my eyes.
Thank you so much for charing your thoughts with us of this incredible song đ
Never fails, every time I hear this song I tear up!
You're not the only one.
Without fail when she sings the words âbe still my son youâre homeâ Iâm a blubbering mess
Thank you for this one! It"s Killing dark but better to die on a song than real world.
Marko, thank you for your years with NightWish. In this masterpiece to me you were outstanding!!!
ikr ,thats whats so unique about nightwish ,even if you cant nderstand a word theyre singing ,you dont need to ,,the music takes you on the journey ,,you feel pure emotion
Thank you. After been warned you were brave enough and look what it did emotionally to you. Loved it to see I am not the only one to tear up.
Thank you for the great video! This song is very near and dear to me; it got me through a very rough time and helped me realize my emotions when I thought I had none. I like to think of the five parts as the five stages of grief, and find it really comforting that there is a 'beginning' after what we thought was the 'end'.
No words needed... â€ïžâ€ïž
As well as my never ending praise of this song, I'd just like to give a shout to the lighting and video folks. I feel they don't get as much appreciation as they should.
NASA (Nightwish Army Scottish Allegiance) great heart felt reaction Rocky! its an amazing composition.
Kiitos
Well done that you first looked at what it was all about.
A master piece by Tuomas Holopainen.
So beautiful but also so sad.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
You tought you were ready, but nobody is after knowing the meaning behind this song.
Great reaction man.
Great reaction mate well done, that composition and journey in that song will stay with you, trust me, sometimes it gets harder the second time around as you expect the onslaught etc in certain parts, having said that I have listened to that song since it was released and it still brings the tears for me. Keep up the awesome work mate.
the onion ninja struck again.....beautyful song/masterpiece.....great reaction đ€đ»
Tuomas sensitive soul gives masterpieces like this one to the world. Our Mozart
What a great reaction and analysis, kiitos RH.
Fantastic reaction dude thank you. đđđ» itâs quiet something isnât it? đ€Żđ€đ»
In my opinion, this is the most beautiful song that I have ever heard in my life. It brings out emotions in me that no song has ever done before, and that is saying a lot. I can relate to this song because unfortunately I have suffered with depression for most of my life and felt like suicide was the only answer to what I was going through more times than I can even remember, especially after a traumatic night that happened to me that involved someone who I thought that I could trust, which lift me with PTSD and that is still effecting my life today even though it happened 7 years ago. Also when I was trying to get clean and sober from a heroin addiction that lasted for more than 13 years. I have been clean now for almost 3 years now and it has not been easy. Depression is a monster, and I'm so glad that Tuomas was able to fight his demons and realize that his life was worth living. I think that his experience made him stronger and I know many people that have been able to get through really rough depressing times in their life by listening to Nightwish. It's such an amazing band and Tuomas is a amazing song writer and a amazing composer. Anyways, I'm glad that I found your channel. I really like your reactions and I'm a new subscriber. -Meg
I agree 100% it's as if he trapped his pain in the song, and you can just feel that pain when listening to the song. Congratulations on 3 years of sobriety, it is a difficult process and you should be proud of yourselfâș
@@RockyHarder thank you
Am I the only one who, when watching people react to this for the 1st time, yells at the screen for the person to "watch! look at the video! you're going to miss it!" during the throat cutting motion by Tuomas?! lol Many miss it because of the emotions they're feeling. / Rocky - glad you didn't miss it, and even replayed it... took it all in... and then just sat in awe and repeated "genius"... perfect reaction, imho.
Awesome Rocky!! Nobody has done the justice to this master piece by Tuomas Holopainen and Nightwish as you have, not even close! Thank you!! đđ«đź
You have snatched the pebble from my hand,Grasshopper. Great reaction, man.
Indeed it's a difficult song to play technically and emotionally, I don't know if you noticed between the moment it's said "now I have only three minutes and counting..." and the moment the blade falls you have exactly three minutes. Also it's very difficult emotionally for Tuomas, in an interview he said when he wrote that he was depressed and suicidal that he had to kill himself literally in the song so he doesn't do it for real and how many times when they performed it live, he asked the tech to cut the vocals out of his monitor because these lyrics are so hard for him to hear.
Another thing you may have noticed, Marko and Empu in the end of the song went standing by him maybe checking on him, seeing if he's doing fine and giving him some support.
Itâs heartbreaking isnât it? And it stays like that even after xxxx times listening, always tearing up.
Sooo happy we can still enjoy his fantastic compositions. đ
Thanks for a great reaction. đđ»
The intricacies within the combination of the back story, the lyricism, the composition, the musicianship, the contrast in vocal tones to bring real emotion to the presentation. The stage interaction.
A musical suicide and rebirth could not possibly be presented any better than this.
Absolute masterpiece.
I have a heart of stone, but.. this song just crushes me. An ode to self betrayal.
Always enjoy sincerity in a reaction. Enjoy the journey.
Ya done good Rock !!!! When you know what the lyrics are about it changes from a song to a piece of art.
And every time you heard this song, you find new things, for example next time, keep an eye on the lyrics "3 minutes and counting", see what happens đ. Absolutely a master piece.
Great reaction rocky.
You are an all in reactor. That is special. I'm late with my comment. I had many Nightwish reactions waiting for me last night, and I kept pushing your reaction to The Poet and the Pendulum down the list, maybe because hiw emotional you are. I just felt I didn't want to listen to this song and chose the 'easier' ones first.
After a short night sleep I was able to sleep a couple of hours more and I felt I was sort of ready for The Poet.
Great reaction, appreciating fully this mastepiece and performance. So much more than just a song among others. It is amazing to have people like Tuomas who can turn the worst times of their lives in to masterfull pieces of art for us to feel and I guess I have to say enjoy. Even though it's so sad, it promises hope, a new beginning at the end.
I can not imagine me writing anything like this about any other song. Finnish men are, stereotypically, emotionless. Not true of course, but I think it is true we hide our emotions, keep them inside. Not very healthy. I hope and believe that is changing.
For anyone who has ever considered suicide, this song cuts to the bone!
Absolute brilliant masterpiece!
I cannot imagine any other song evoking the pain felt due to extreme life circumstances.
The thing that I love the most about this song is the lyrics in the last part, called Mother and Father. From what I understand it's what Tuomas's parents told him after he got home after Tarja no longer was in the band. It's beatuiful and...well, your parents love you okay!
Epic reaction brother, I can't listen to this COMPOSITION with dry eyes (I've seen a million reactions to this song, some straight on "as is" musically, some "properly" researched, as should be. But only a handful of them truly grasped the actual gravity of this piece like You did.
At this point, as a member of the "NW Army" I know I should "bombard" You with NW facts etc... but, hey this ain't yer first rodeo, so I'll skip that.
Absolutely beautiful, Thank You,
TomHđ«đź
Sounds like you've had your own experiences with anxiety and depression, brother.
My love to you.
There is another documentary which appears on the "End of an Era" DVD/Blu-ray called, "A Day Before Tomorrow," which documents the final 15 days leading up to the fateful last concert of the tour, recorded for the DVD/Blu-ray. It is quite an emotional trip, and can be found on CZcams in segments.
Amazing reaction my friend.
I've seen countless reactions of NW songs. But the thing than you've said, that actually Thomas, through his creation, especially this masterpiece, has opened his mind and his heart to his fans, describes perfectly what we all experience with this band. He has allowed us all to roam inside his most private, most personal, most forbidden places of his thoughts and feelings. He opened himself to the world, and that my friend is courage and charisma!
Long live NWđ€đ
loved the reaction tnx. it is a beautiful and heart-wrenching song, espescially when you know the backstory. fun fact, when the voice-over says "3 minutes and counting", exactly 3 mins later tuomas slits his throat...
Great reaction of this masterpiece. Interpretations of the lyrics can be many but I also tend to think that "the beginning" in the end is about something new that starts after the 'suicide' of Tuomas. There's also a theory that the story is tell backwards, because in the beginning there's a part that is like a reversed tape of the spoken words by the kid.
Anyways Tuomas have said he is not in that place anymore so the song feels odd to play at the time, but I can imagine they will keep doing it from time to time because of how good it is as a composition.
7 Days to the Wolves from Wembley next?
I have always interpreted the ending of the song (like when he says "the beginning") as him literally being born again, like reincarnation. But maybe I looked at it that way because I / my religion (Paganism), believe in reincarnation. However I like hearing other peoples interpretations, it allows me to look at things from a different perspective and I liked what you had to say about your theory of what the ending of the song meant.
Btw, Marko with his singing and sick base play represents us Finns đ«đź to a T - we take everything seriously, true to the word, if it is worth doing it is worth doing right, 100%! đđ«đź
bearing in mind, this was Halfway through this show! 6 More songs after this, Including GLS And TGSOE!!! i don't even know if i would survive One Continent with NW, let alone a Whole Tour!!!
If you want to hear this performed with the original anger and passion find Marco's Demo of TPATP, man it is hurt and angry, it was recorded before they had found annette to join the band. This is the ultimate live performance of the song though and Floor puts her heart and soul into it, you feel everything, it is not a song you even hear or listen to, it is a pure emotional ride
Your reactions to Nightwish are the best I have seen. I hope you continue to do more.
I hope Tuomas takes one day out of his life to watch Nightwish reaction videos back to back for hours.
I don't even remember any more how this song sounds originally with Anette, for years now I've only been listening to Floors live versions đ Awesome reaction as always to this epicness! đ€
Greetings from Finland & thanks you for your reaction to this Nightwish masterpiece of epic proportions. Floor's vocals give this song so much more emotion than Anette ever could, although she wasn't a bad vocalist either.
P.S. Did you notice that it actually takes three minutes from when the young boy's voice says "Now I only have three minutes and counting..." to the point that the pendulum swings & Tuomas figuratively cuts his throat with his right hand?
There is only one word I know to describe the mother and father part. Acceptance.
đ€đ€â€đ€đ€đâđŒđ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
I'm so glad you're onto this!!!! Such a rollercoaster of emotion this song!!!!! But a masterpiece as well!!!!
It's my favourite song of Nightwish. And this version is perfect. Floor's voice is birilliant here. That ending - she sings with a light head voice ("be still my son...") and then she sings the same melody with a chest/mixed voice ("search for beauty..."). True artist. Most people can't do that, they're like - OK, high notes = head voice, low notes = chest voice. She's above that, she can choose whatever she wants and it sounds sooooo damn good!
Your intro is one of the best I have heard from reactors to do for this masterpiece. Did you noted exact 3 min for the blade to do the trick?
Heavy, indeed, Sir...but so extremely unique and beautiful. All superlatives come into sight, when thinking of or hearing or seeing /\/ \/\/. A band with so strong individuals, who believe so strongly in higher human emotion...these last three words form the main theme in their music...in their lives as a band as well as personally! /\/ \/\/ are able to inject us with their depth and touch our hearts, our souls, just like theirs were before they spread out their love to us. Greetz from NL. PS: subscribed...ofcourse!
Yeah, this album was written for Annette's voice and i know people dislike her because she didn't even compare the Tarja's amazing operatic voice but Dark Passion Play is one of favorite albums. The emotions expressed in each song are so great. Floor did a really good job with this song.
very cool reaction,
greetings from the Nightwish Army from Germany :-)
As always...great reaction!!!
Thank you,
Nightwish Army Tucson Chapter
In my dark days this is what it plays in loop
We are blessed that we live in the same time with Tuomas
Now for the song , Tuomas make some references to Edgar Alan Poe , also when said "i have 3 minutes" its the 7th min of song and after 3 exactly minutes "founded dead with a smile in his face" he commete "suicide"
Now it's time for Dead Boy's Poem live from Buenos Aires 2018
Nice reaction!
Instant sub!
No idea how I managed to miss your other Nightwish reactions but I hope there are many more to come.
Remember when the boy's voice said "now I only have three minutes and counting"? Watch it again and count the three minutes. Tuomas is indeed an absolute genius and Nightwish delivers music on a level closer to absolute perfection than any other band!
There's however one other recomendation I have for you:
Check out a band called The Warning. They deserve way more attention than they're getting at the moment.
Is it because they're from Mexico?
Is it because they're three sisters of currently 20, 18 and 15 years?
No idea! But it's wrong! Help changing it! Start with their cover of Enter Sandman from 6 years ago. Kirk Hammet himself tweeted it at the time, especially praising the drummer.
Go check it out, you won't regret it!
They also recorded two albums with original songs since then.
Such a good reaction, love this song so much, can you do a reaction on Wintersun Sons of Winter and Stars, live from sonic pump studios. Its a band from Finland with Kay from Nightwish on drums.
mastery at its finest
Beautiful reaction to a Beautiful song!!

Nice work dude, hope you had the lyrics up to fully understand this masterpiece - great reaction as always đ€
Your screen layout is among the best of reactors.
After 3 minutes, Thuomas cut his throat on stage .... great reaction. Cheers
After only 7 minutes i had to hit SUBSCRIBE, you have a real heart.
Thank you! They don't mess around, they go straight for your heart :)
I could not agree more. I love his reactions and as soon as I found his channel, after the first song that I heard him react to I subscribed as well. I can tell that his reactions are real unlike a lot of reaction channels that don't seem genuine at all and just seem over the top and fake.
@@RockyHarder And you feel from the heart.
Huge reaction, it was absolutely on point how you got inside the song. Great stuff to watch. Thank you!
Wait until you hear The Greatest Show on Earth - Live at Tampere. Your head may actually explode. It's about the birth of the universe & follows all the way through to............I'll leave you hanging....hahaha. I'd suggest some thorough research, which I know you enjoy. Great reaction as always. đâđ€
Nice reaction, great intro alone already. I also like the way you split the screen, video is not too small, we can still see enough of your face for the reaction and i like the useage of the other spot to show not only the cover but also some extra infos you researched. Very well done.
Saw meanwhile you also did some Epica, now next would be "Within Temptation" for the trinity of the dutch metal goddesses.
Personally i would love to see a reaction to "Frozen" especially after my comment i left at your "Abyss of time" video.
Thank you. This reaction surely did justice to this masterpiece.
Fantastic reaction. I appreciate what you went through and the song itself. Thanks so much.
Awesome reaction man, truly heartfelt. đ€
I do like the version with subtitles brings more ... But tears .... every time ...
