- This is my video reaction to #Nightwish, singing #TheGreatestShowOnEarth.
Amazing staging, amazing show, amazing voices! What a phenomenal production! With every new performance, I really want to listen to more song from Nightwish...even I have some song in my Spotify playlist! This kind of music, symphonic #metalmusic is flawless!

![NIGHTWISH [Floor Jansen] - The Greatest Show on Earth [Amazing Ending] Vocal Coach Reacts (Analysis)](/img/n.gif)
As many of you are telling me about opacity and mirrored video, it's due to copyright. Even with that, it has been banned in Denmark. I did a tryout, uploading a video in the past with and without transparency and the mirror image, and without, the video is banned in more countries. Do not now...I can try the next one without transparency....
Welcome to CZcams copyright and how it doesn't make any sense
strange . I alwaus thought you need to stop the video 2 or 3 times
Not sure if it makes a difference, but I see other reactors put copyright information in their description, e.g. band, song title, record label etc.
Please react to Gary Valenciano Spain. In Wish 107.5
If you going to do The Poet and the Pendullum I suggest you to keep the mirror and transparency for it. Some pauses during the video to say your thoughts also help do not being blocked.
I am getting goosebumps watching you getting goosebumps...
tuomas was wise to make this whole concert to video,coz this was first time,nightwish come home finland with new singer floor with the band. there was big emotion in floor,her parents in audience, band and finnish people with stadium. lucky guys and girls who was there that time. thanx to react and have great day there.
Hola Anna 💖, always great to see your emotional reactions, this one started with a double WOW !! 💥😂
Nightwish with Queen Floor are the best you can get when it comes to LIVE performances.
Have tickets for the December 2020 concert in Germany, hope it will not be cancelled due to the Covid Pandemic.
Next songs I recommend: Storytime or Song of Myself from Wacken 2013 Live; if you want to hear more Marco and Floor then perhaps Devil and the Deep Ocean Live from Buenos Aires.
Hasta Luego 👀💥💥
This song is true "Symphony of Life ". Great reaction ! Thanks :-)
Let's have a drinking game! Every time you say Wow! we'll have a shot of booze. Alcohol poisoning, how bad could it be? 😂
I love your reactions, you're so genuine!
No one will survive 😵
lets dont but tell everyone we did LOL
and we forgot all about how it went
Great game...kippis!!!!! But if she dont say....we are trouble......haha
only 27 Wow`s, LOL , you must really love it. Greetings from the Netherlands
1 Wow per Minute. 😊
official wow counter: 23
Plus 5 "whoas" as well. (Also an extra +1 "wow" after the video ended while she was talking, so a total of 24 "wows" and 5 "whoas".)
This was a song about 4.6 billion years of the evolution of our solar system, the Earth, and humankind. Life in all its wondrous forms, is The Greatest Show on Earth. Great reaction job again lovely lady. I loved your video. Greetings from USA. I look forward to the next one. Stay safe and be well. Peace.
I freaking love your animated reactions. Your awe at the band and how they deliver. 😆😆😆. Just keep watching and we will follow 🤘🤘🤘
Miss, as you seem to enjoy That Guy's* voice, have a listen to Nightwish's Pink Floyd cover High Hopes (live), with That Guy as the solo vocalist. It's quite something, I promise. And since he can sing both gritty and non-gritty, also check out The Islander live in Tampere (the same concert as the song you just watched).
The speaking voice you heard on The Greatest Show on Earth belongs to Richard Dawkins, a famous evolutionary biologist. In the Wembley concert, also available on CZcams, Dr. Dawkins joined Nightwish on stage to deliver the last speech.
*His name is Marko. The impish guitar player is Emppu. The guy behind the drums is Kai - he has replaced Jukka whose insomnia became too debilitating for him to tour (don't worry, he's better now and still working with the band behind the scenes). Troy plays a multitude of pipes, flutes and other instruments and occasionally sings. Tuomas, commanding keyboards and fireworks, is the visionary who creates a lion's share of the music. And Floor you already know.
"its like a monster, waking up"
Yes that would be humans
Lol, still gives me the chills, I was at that concert, I live only 200km from Tampere and thank goodness I went to see them then. If I've had known what I know now mean pandemic, and Marko leaving, I would've been so upset not to seen this band as it was in here.
Hi. Greatest Show has double meaning here, it's more than just this nice piece of music 🤗 All the best from Finland, keep safe 🤗
😁🇫🇮❤️🤘
Miss, I think you really like Nightwish! Welcome to the Army, and greetings from the Chicago Brigade of the Nightwish Army!
I was there!!
I wish I was there😉

One word to describe you, Wow! Your reactions, Wow. Your appreciation of Nightwish Wow. Your love of great music, Wow. Thank you for entertaining us.
No words are needed..only WOW!❤️
Watching for a second time since last year. Love your reaction! Amazing song ! Gracias!🤘🏻
Loved your reaction, keep the good work going :-)
Really should read this if you are doing The Poet And The Pendulum so quickly
The Poet And The Pendulum. Live Wemberly. 14 min of intense emotion.
Inspired by Edgar Allen Poe's The Pit And The Pendulum. Poe describes the torments endured by a prisoner of the Spanish Inquisition.
This song was written after the fall out after the dismissal of Tarja from Nightwish. The whole band wanted her gone, so the band wrote an open letter to her. Unfortunately Tuomas got most of the flack for it. Even the head of Finland got involved.
Tuomas was very depressed because of the backlash, so instead of committing suicide he decided to kill himself in this song. It also describes how he came out the other side with the help of his parents.
At various times you will see the guitarists come over to check on Tuomas to make sure he is ok. They're not just chatting to him.
When the young boy says 3 minutes and counting, it is exactly 3 minutes until Tuomas kills himself in the song with the slice across his neck. Timing is unbelievable. The song is broken up into 5 parts.
1 White Lands of Empathica
2 Home
3 Pacific
4 Dark Passion Play
5 Mother and Father
thanks for the information!! I'l try to find the video of the song with the lyrics to understand tho whole of it
@@missunnaturally
czcams.com/video/iEzZRMthhXU/video.html
With Lyrics
@@missunnaturally How you treat this song will mean a lot to the long term fans that went through that dark time in Nightwish's history
@@bazkeen thanks!!!
@@missunnaturally Here's the video with lyrics in English and Spanish. czcams.com/video/4gXllqt8khU/video.html
Saw this pop up, immediately thought: "Ooh this is going to blow her mind!"
The instrument Troy plays is called uilleann pipes (pronounced illen) - the main difference between a bagpipe and the uilleann pipes is that the latter are not filled with air by breathing into them but via an elbow operated bellows.
Now this is how you kickstart a day off lol! Great reaction I can't wait for Poet and the Pendulum Stay safe greetings from Florida :)
You, my friend, definitely have the soul of a Nightwish fan. I love your channel and your obvious love for music. I can't wait for your next upload. Much love.
"Waaaaaow!!!" Your reaction videos are quite addictive, from the lovely accent to the genuine fun you seem to have. Keep them going Miss!
Here is a little analysis of the song that I found from comments one day from one Nightwish fan : Finally!! Here it is this Masterpiece in "normal" english, lyrics are in " "
[ Part 1: Four Point Six] (age of The Earth)
"Archaean horizon, The first sunrise"
Earth's history is divided into four principal Eons: the Hadean, the Archean, Proterozoic, and the Phanerozoic. The Hadean is the Eon during which the Earth and Moon formed; in the Archaean, primordial life appeared. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Earth)
"On a pristine gaea"
Gaia is the primordial Greek goddess of the Earth. More recently, the Gaia hypothesis is a recognition of the living and nonliving Earth systems which form an interdependent whole. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia)
"Opus perfectum, Somewhere there, us sleeping" Pristine perfection (of silence, of a blank page, of the very point from which the big bang itself sprung) implies a rich creative potential. Here Earth is painted in the same powerful way. Diversity awaits; unborn beings are sleeping the same sleep to which they will return at death. This interpretation is thematically linked with the album's opening track, "Shudder before the Beautiful," which includes the lyrics, "The music of this awe, Deep silence between the notes, Deafens me with endless love." Or as the furious hobbit screamed at the novice trumpeter, "An artist respects the silence, it serves as the foundation of creativity." (czcams.com/video/9E62iA6KCIQ/video.html)
[Part 2: Life]
"The cosmic law of gravity Pulled the newborns around a fire, A careless cold infinity in every vast direction. Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone"
Gravity pulls the Earth and its inhabitants around the energizing Sun in an otherwise inhospitable universe. Earth is the only planet in our solar system's circumstellar habitable zone, orbiting at the "just right, not too hot, not too cold" distance from the Sun. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_habitable_zone)
"She has a tale to tell, From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast, Enter LUCA"
In astronomy, stellar nurseries are the birthplaces of stars: they nurse stars (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_formation#Stellar_nurseries). Poetically, our solar system is another "stellar nursery," in which a star is the nurse, caring for and warming a planet of 'newborns,' early carbon-based life. "Feast" evokes the incorporation of plentiful chemical building blocks into rudimentary life forms. "LUCA" stands for "Last universal common ancestor," the one single organism from which all other presently existing life on Earth descended. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_universal_ancestor)
"The tapestry of chemistry is a writing in the garden, Leading us to the mother of all"
The periodic table of elements does look like a sort of patchwork tapestry, but this can go further. The historical function of tapestries was as "nomadic murals," pictographical histories which moving people could pack up and revisit wherever they went. The "writing in the garden," in nature, is not only the stone murals left by dead animals in the form of fossils, but is also this chemical writing that encodes the relatively nomadic DNA molecule with the instructions for life. The scientific investigation of this information leads us back to LUCA, and further. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapestry#Function)
"We are one, We are a universe,"
This is the natural conclusion to draw from the fact that life shares common origin, that all life is built with the same blocks, and that all life on Earth is interdependent (gaia hypothesis). The multiplicity of beings on Earth are one, just as the cells in a body are one.
"Forebears of what will be Scions of the Devonian sea."
The Devonian geologic time period marked the first significant, rapid diversification of life (and the more well-known Cambrian explosion is another of these 'adaptive radiation' events). It was during the Devonian that the 'higher plants' appeared and blanketed the continents with forests. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devonian). The word "scion" refers to a shoot of a plant cut for grafting, and is also used to denote a descendent of a notable family. Both meanings apply.
"Aeons pass, Writing the tale of us all. A day-to-day new opening For the greatest show on Earth"
Evolutionary adaptation is written in the DNA and as fossils in the rocks, and is ongoing. Species die, diversifiy and delineate. Every day is different, every day something changes.
"Ion channels welcoming the outside world To the stuff of stars"
Ion channels are found in the membranes of all cells, controlling the flow of energy through the cells. The stuff of stars is all the physical matter we're made of. So it's the ion channels, guiding enery, which allow living bodies to interact with the rest of the world by exchanging energy with it. "Stuff of stars" is surely a Sagan reference: "The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff." (For fun: czcams.com/video/XGK84Poeynk/video.html)
"Bedding the tree of a biological holy, Enter life"
The bed of a tree is the nutrient-rich soil from which it grows, a soil made of dead things. The "tree of a biological holy" is probably the tree of life (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_of_life). This line refers to the "holy" legendary tree of everlasting life but also means the conceptual, branching family tree of all life, whose bed consists of all deceased beings (in a more literal sense), or all extinct ancestral species (in a more abstract sense). This is thematically linked with the song "Alpenglow."
"We are here to care for the garden, The wonder of birth Of every form most beautiful"
"We" could be human beings tasked with acting as nature's stewards, garden of eden style, but that's not chronological -- human beings haven't quite appeared in the song yet. "We" could instead be all of life itself, in a gaia-philosophy sense, which posits that life creates environments ever more hospitable to more life. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_philosophy) Or maybe it's a combination of these two thoughts: life eventually creates an environment suitable for the development of consiously acting, thinking human stewards.
[Part 3: The Toolmaker]
"After a billion years, The show is still here. Not a single one of your fathers died young."
Every single one of a given person's ancestors, male and female, lived past puberty at least. But "fathers" evokes "forefathers," which has a nicer storytelling ring to it than "parents."
"The handy travelers Out of Africa Little Lucy of the Afar"
Handymen are good with tools; travelers posessing hands rather than forefeet walk upright. Hominids originated in Africa and spread to the rest of the world from there. Lucy is a particular specimen of the Australopithecus, one of many "missing links" between modern humans and nonhuman ancestors. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_(Australopithecus))
"Gave birth to fantasy, To idolatry, To self-destructive weaponry. Enter the God of gaps Deep within the past. Atavistic dread of the hunted!"
The brain grows, consciousness and creativity along with it. Atavism is the tendency to revert to ancestral type, an evolutionary throwback. Fight-or-flight instincts that helped human ancestors survive have now been creatively projected onto the world to both explain it (origins, meaning, suffering) and gain security in it (bargaining through sacrifice). These are the roots of theism. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atavism)
"Enter Ionia, the cradle of thought, The architecture of understanding. The human lust to feel so exceptional, To rule the Earth"
Nomadic people develop agriculture and settle down into civilizations. The word "architecture" is at once both literal and figurative. The efficiency of civilization graces people with free time to do more than just feed themselves. They develop rich cultural traditions, arts and philosophies, much of which are deeply influenced by how different humans now are from all the rest of life.
"Hunger for shiny rocks, For giant mushroom clouds, The will to do as you'd be done by."
Shiny rocks are wealth: gold, precious stones, jewels, and later uranium which leads to the nuclear arms race. The golden rule -- "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" -- is a coin with a dark side: "an eye for an eye," revenge. This ensures the "MAD"ness of mutually assured destruction. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_assured_destruction)
"Enter history, the grand finale. Enter ratkind."
"Ratkind" comes from Richard Dawkins' book "The Ancestor's Tale." Dawkins imagines a post-apocalyptic world in which rodents feast on the remnants of humanity (and humanity's garbage). The rat population explodes, and then as they exhaust these resources they turn on one another for food. As a consequence of natural selection, the rats diverge into new carnivorous and herbivorous species, and perhaps, eventually, a specices of rodent whose intelligence rivals that of humans. This is "ratkind." (iberianature.com/wildworld/tag/ratkind/)
"Man, he took his time in the sun, Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand."
From William Blake: "To see a World in a Grain of Sand, And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour." ...And the story of the planet in 24 minutes. Not bad.
"He gave birth to poetry, But one day'll cease to be. Greet the last light of the library"
A bittersweet redundancy: poetry with library, the last light with ceasing to be. Reminiscent of Elan: "Be the first to greet the morn [...] Travel with great élan, dance a jig at the funeral."
"We were here!"
Who else is going to vote for this song's inclusion on the next Voyager golden record, if there'll ever be one?
You should react to Storytime, from Wacken 2013 concert. You’ll say a lot of “wows”. Sometimes Nightwish songs seems that they got to the end... but they don’t, don’t be afraid to go all the way...
Enjoyed your reaction. Thank you for doing Nightwish!
You obviously thoroughly enjoyed that show, a genuine positive reaction, and...I just love your guttural Spanish "Wow's" really heartfelt.
The greatest show on Earth is all of us.
Please do the research on the back story for The Poet and the Pendulum. You mentioned the emotion with The Greatest Show On Earth, the emotions portrayed in The Poet and the Pendulum are that of the keyboardist, Tuomas Holopainen. Also, to assist with understanding the song, it is best to use the live video from Wembley 2016 with lyrics. I look forward to your reaction.
Love your enthusiasm! It is always nice to see others who genuinely enjoy a song.
Please, friend..before you react The Poet...,search for the Backstory..and there is the live,Wembley, with Lyrics.Then you really understand this song..greetings from northern germany and stay safe
Probably my favorite song by them I love the subject matter and the music just nails it all together.
Love the wows. All the wows. I agree.🤘
Hi from the UK. Just another day at the Nightwish office! Floor is Dutch and is classically trained. She is a 1.8m powerhouse and can really "sell" a story with emotion, expression and her vocal gymnastics. Nightwish instrumentalists...there are no words. Always epic performances and brilliant compositions, which take you on a journey! Great reactions and analysis. Best wishes and stay safe.
The Greatest Band on Earth.
Hell yea ! ! !
The song is about evolution as the greatest show on earth, but you're also right that this performance is the greatest show on earth also. Cute and great reaction.
And this is Floor at the end of a concert, still blowing everybody away.
It easily translates how much you enjoy the performance you are watching - fun reaction!
"God created music and said it was good....."
"Then he created Nightwish and he smiled for it was great....."
"Then God created Floor Jansen and he dropped the mic...."
"For he had created Perfection"
And the people screamed "AMEN!"
Hi Miss, really loved your reaction. Enjoying all your wows, it is telling me you really like it. It is always nice to see someone enjoying Nightwish.
My recommendation would be Everdream and Storytime, both from Wacken 2013 concert. I really think you will like those as well. Then maybe Nemo (also from Wacken 2013).
I think after that you will be ready for the Poet and the Pendulum @ Wembley. But before you listen to that one you will need to know the story behind that song.
Take care and stay healthy.
Nosotros estuvimos aqui. Great reaction. There's still lots of other great performances by Nightwish for you discover. Hope you keep on with your journey!
Great performance! Amazing reaction! Well done, cutie.
I think you will really enjoy Ghost River from Nightwish. Preferably from Wacken 2013.
NIGHTWISH - Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean - Live In Buenos Aires is well worth a look too :D
Marco/Floor singing like a show
This song is a masterpiece, full stop. I can't count the Floorgasms you had in this reaction and it's wonderful :D
Your reaction caused me to subscribe. Love it. Keep rock in.
Love this song immediately after the album was released. One of the most epic song I've ever heard...
I love your enthusiasm you are "amazing", omg, wow. Love it, Love you. Tx
Marvelous reaction a very emotional .Thanks for it .As next Nightwish Elan
Just for your information. "The greatest show on earth" doesn't actually refer to this song. It refers to the book by Richard Dawkins
(The same person that recorded the speech at the beginning and end of the song) 🙂
Actually she did not catch the point. It would be better for her to do some research before...
I just love the fact Richard Dawkins speaks in this song. It really shows how the band stands for reason and reality.
I am really enjoying your reactions to Nightwish and Floor. It is wonderful to find great singers and bands from around the world. Great art is everywhere and all we need to do is look for it. I want to recommend a group called Pentatonix and I think they will give you shivers and goosebumps. Try their music video of the song "Hallelujah" to start and I know you will want more. Enjoy!!!
Anna great reaction to The Greatest Show On Earth From NightWish and you look lovely.
Gr8 Reaction ^^ love how you really feel the music and don't distract yourself by anything!
1. Poet and the pendulum
& if you want somewhat different nightwish songs than what you watched so far:
2. Yours is an empty hope
3. Romanticide
You'll love them 2
I really like the way you‘re reacting to the music: Honestly and full of emotions!
Very loveable reaction!
"The Poet and the Pendulum" is live at Wembley Arena.. Almost all of Nightwish official videos are live, live really is the only way you should watch a Nightwish performance .. There is probably a hundred different live performance videos out there. These long epic songs have very specific themes and stories behind them. Knowing the meaning enhances your enjoyment ten fold. This song is about the evolution of the Earth. From the big bang theory with the fireworks in the beginning, forming of the solar system, the begining of life on earth, early man, modern man, etc.
Love it.
Thank you!
Great reaction. Love your accent. Thank you.
Una obra de arte musical...mi banda favorita....grande nightwish 🤘😎🤘...me encantan tus reacciones😁...saludos desde chile ...🤘¡¡Viva el Rock!!🤘
I hate the ads to. If I see who made the ad before closing i allways remember them and never buy anything from them, so they loose then they are disturbing a song. If it's something i can't avoid buing i skip the product at some occations to punish them :)
Epic song and your reaction mirrors it and maks me experience the sensation again.
That isn't that company doing it, it's CZcams doing it based off of your search history.
I would suggest to know what you are talking about before you go to "punish" a company for advertising.
@@ironnads7975 Yes i know what but it's still the company who pays moore for offensive and disturbing adds. I will keep punish copanies who forces way ro irritating adds as i always have done.
Greetings Frode Mathiassen, Java developer :)
Thank's ....good reaction. Amazing...💓👍
Missu...that is birthdayvideo of the world...its great and wow
Me encantan tus reacciones compañera. El live the The poet and the pendulum que deberías reaccionar es el (live at wembley 2016). Es mi canción favorita de Nightwish. Si te molesta la publicidad en youtube para las reacciones, mira de bajarte una extensión de Chrome que se llama 'adblock for youtube'. Un abrazo muy fuerte desde palma de Mallorca y a topeee!!!! : D
Coming in at 21 "Wows", "The Greatest Show on Earth" by Nightwish scored well into the red zone of the Wowmeter, albeit this cannot serve as an official record for a song, due to the reactor have prematurely cut off the last several minutes of the video, thereby disqualifying it for consideration in the Wowmeter record book.
I love you way of reacting. super. Now the poet and the pendulum etc
"The greatest show on Earth" is about the lyrics, nice reaction i love you
Great reaction! I know you are going to love "Que Se Siente", waiting to see your reaction.
From Nightwish I suggest you react to "Ever Dream" Wacken2013. Floor and Marko together on vocals. Taking turns but also harmonizing. Their voices complement each other amazingly. Floor's voice is unbelievable, out of this world. Marko's voice sounds great too. But it's the whole band doing a fantastic job!
Greetings from Helsinki Finland!
Stay safe!
The Poet and the Pendulum is an expression of Tuomas's feelings when the band sacked their friend and first singer Tarja and the subsequent backlash from fans and press. Some say it is a musical suicide rather than doing it in real life. I would suggest that you play the video from Wembley 2016.
czcams.com/video/iEzZRMthhXU/video.html This is the version with English subtitles.
What a beautiful video. This performance is my favorite Nightwish performance. The Poet And The Pendulum is from Wembley. So you're from Spain? Very nice country. Greetings from the Netherlands.
The Poet And The Pendulum - Nightwish. HQ with lyrics. Live @ Wembley 2016.
This is the One!
At 22:20, you probably you are talking about "Romanticide" live at Wacken 2013 ... She (Floor) and he (Marco) plays with his voices all the final part of the song ...
Nice, continuation of your nightwish trip, ... I Ilove your "Wows" !!.Try "Everdream" of the Wacken gig or if you want to taste Marco´s Voise try "The Islander" live at Tempere, same gig that this video. Enjoy the rollercoaster that Nightwih is !!!... This Army never ends !!, and please remenber "Enjoy your time under the sun " ;). Finally one little advice : "The poet and the Pendulum" is the most amazing song but always the most complicated to understand (I mean TO interpret).
It was amazing to be on that show..my first NW show..really addictive stuff 😍😁🤘🤘
Marco is the guy with the beard..poet and the pendulum is from Wembley 2015.
Ay caramba :) Thanx for the video. I think "greatest show on earth" means the life itself?
Awesome Reaction 🤘🤘🤘🤘. Espero Pronto la Reaccion de Shoemaker y la historia que hay detras de ella, claro Tambien Poet and the Pendulum pero con Subtitles y Que se siente en Español... sin olvidar Vilga lied en Aleman... Miss Floor Jansen Queen of Metal 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 Missunnaturally Queen of Woooow 🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦
Oo gsoe! where's me popcorn? nom 😃
IT IS THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH.🥰
"I love this kind of gritty voice."
...and you self growled Your "Wow!" more than once. That was cute. ; )
They really are nailers. They nail it so it sticks.
Yes. Disturbed. Sound of Silence is a good one to react too.
Good reaction and now "ever dream" 👍
Regarding ads, install an ad blocker :)
Great composion... but reaction so great... 👋👋👋🤘🤘🤘👍
Does anyone else here listen to every reaction for this song to see if they notice the classical piece they snuck in or even that Metallica rift that is hidden too? Its all I ever seem to do now. 😅
Great reaction , I am looking forward when you react to Poet and The Pendulum !
This is a masterpiece. Excellent reaction. Keep going and I would suggest Weak Fantasy from this concert. A harder headbanger where Floor unleashes and the drums are out of this earth.... a different side of Nightwish.
Because a lot of the lyrics and themes in this piece come from Dawkins book, The Greatest Show on Earth I have taken the liberty of posting some meanings, Hope you dont mind, good reaction btw.. "Archaean horizon, The first sunrise" Earth's history is divided into four principal Eons: the Hadean, the Archean, Proterozoic, and the Phanerozoic. The Hadean is the Eon during which the Earth and Moon formed; in the Archaean, primordial life appeared.

The word "scion" refers to a shoot of a plant cut for grafting, and is also used to denote a descendent of a notable family. Both meanings apply. "Aeons pass, Writing the tale of us all. A day-to-day new opening For the greatest show on Earth" Evolutionary adaptation is written in the DNA and as fossils in the rocks, and is ongoing. Species die, diversifiy and delineate. Every day is different, every day something changes. "Ion channels welcoming the outside world To the stuff of stars" Ion channels are found in the membranes of all cells, controlling the flow of energy through the cells. The stuff of stars is all the physical matter we're made of. So it's the ion channels, guiding enery, which allow living bodies to interact with the rest of the world by exchanging energy with it. "Stuff of stars" is surely a Sagan reference: "The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff." (For fun: czcams.com/video/XGK84Poeynk/video.html) "Bedding the tree of a biological holy, Enter life" The bed of a tree is the nutrient-rich soil from which it grows, a soil made of dead things. The "tree of a biological holy" is probably the tree of life (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_of_life). This line refers to the "holy" legendary tree of everlasting life but also means the conceptual, branching family tree of all life, whose bed consists of all deceased beings (in a more literal sense), or all extinct ancestral species (in a more abstract sense). This is thematically linked with the song "Alpenglow." "We are here to care for the garden, The wonder of birth Of every form most beautiful" "We" could be human beings tasked with acting as nature's stewards, garden of eden style, but that's not chronological -- human beings haven't quite appeared in the song yet. "We" could instead be all of life itself, in a gaia-philosophy sense, which posits that life creates environments ever more hospitable to more life. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_philosophy) Or maybe it's a combination of these two thoughts: life eventually creates an environment suitable for the development of consiously acting, thinking human stewards.
Check the lyrics. 'We...humans are the greatest show on earth...and what great good luck to have been born at all'...and enjoy it for the few years that are left before we all go up in flames, not only because our turns around the sun have reached their natural limit, but because we as humans have blown this 'The greatest show on Earth', that was humanity.
I think the greatest show on earth is life itself, not humans. Humans are only one small chapter of that.
@@todanrg3 Yes, that is correct, but humans are the first ones that developed consciousness, which is expressed in parts of the lyrics.
😎🤘🇳🇴🇫🇮🏴 The greatest show on earth is the syclus of our planet earth ❤️🏴
Completa la trilogía con "The Poet and the Pendulum" (prohibido llorar) (live at Wembley)
Toumas "the Keyboard player" writes 85% of all Nightwish songs.. He sends out tracks to the others, they collaborate, then get together to finish the songs and add the final touches.. He composes the background vocals and symphonic music and works with groups like the London Philharmonic to produce the backing tracks used in their performances. So most of these songs revolve around who or what happens to inspire him at the time. The Poet and the Pendulum is about his feelings over their first lead singers departure from the band. He had known her since his school days, But, her attitude had changed and it was getting a toxic for the group. Her interests became more about money and a pursuit of a solo career.. It was hard on him personally and worse the split became very public in Finland and a bit ugly. Tarja fans that really didn't know the full story of what was going on behind the scenes, began to turn their dissatisfaction towards him. He became depressed and eventually went back home where his parents and closest friends helped him out of his funk.. He wrote The Poet and the Pendulum to express in music his feelings and emotions during that time.
