Tuomas is a real genius. I love his music and the music of Nightwish.

7:04, 7:24 Tuomas's performance of the heart asks for pleasure first on the piano is the best that I've ever heard 👏☺️ . I wish there had been a full video of that performance. that was amazing.

Marco.. I will allways miss you in Nightwish

[hamstermunchies]

I am in no way a genius like him but Tuomas is like me in the sense of needing solitude to really use his imagination and open up his mind to write.
When I was living in the most rural village on the Isle Of Wight I used to walk for miles over cliffs, fields and forgotten little forts and then sit for a picnic. An the things that came out my head were awesome. I was a relatively amateur writer but it made me happy.
Then I had to move into town where I'm surrounded by building sites, built up traffic and vandalism, which tends to constipate one's mind.
Haven't written anything for over four years.

[anaabendroth]

Tuomas is to the metal world what Johnny Depp is to the pirate world <3

[Norghull]

New Album from Nightwish.. i can't wait. I listen to Black, Death, Thrash Metal, but Nightwish music has something special. Atmosphere is amazing. Greetings From Poland, Tuomas, Marco, Anette, Emppu, Jukka, Nightwish fans and all kinds of Metal fans :)

[derekwarr]

That's simply amazing, when we hear sounds, Toumas hears something else and makes the greatest music from that.

[ToastedCigar]

I compose songs for my band and write short stories as a hobby and the best way to get into the mood of writing and arranging stuff is to be alone, preferably for many days in a remote place, even though it is not usually possible for me. So, I understand why Tuomas needs his alone time when making new music, it helps to keep your mind focused and calm and to let the imagination fly.

[DelkorYT]

Imagine being in a kid's choir and ending up singing alongisde one of the most popular metal bands

[drowranger]
