LYRICS:
Something from the earth came
Something for the world
Mosaic of broken fragile pieces
Tesserae of the deceased
Born to a novel world

Endless chain unbroken
Silent clocks rewinding
My song it is for mankind
Embers to the stars

We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We´re the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a death bed
Time set
For a curious ghost

Lives lived plain and epic
Of eudaemonia
12 score and 1 chain of lives unending
Welcoming as my offspring
Walks me to the weave

  • I´m biologist. NW inspired me to become a biologist in 2015 with EFMB, and now I helped to discover a new shrew species... just imagine how I feel every time I watch by first time a NW video inspired in nature and evolution... THANK YOU NIGHTWISH. Kiitos!!!😍🔥🔥
  • @korrilis
    Many thanks to the 24 564 persons, over the past 400 years, who made this band possible 🙏🏻
  • I don't know how to express my attachment to Nightwish. They were there during all the important moments of my life, decades ago. Their music drove me in unknown directions during those times. I have no clue why or how Holopainen's music always manages to hit me and turn me onto new paths. The strange thing is, Holopainen can express my thoughts, as he did with this song. Literally, it's pretty weird. I feel like I'm part of something bigger, just like Holopainen. As they have evolved, I've been on the path with them. Thank you. Thank you for giving me some kind of anchor, hope, rope, or whatever it is.
  • This seems to me to almost be a continuation of "The Greatest Show On Earth". Nightwish continues to evolve, I'm undecided if their evolution is for the better or worse but in any case they continue to be the greatest rock band on the planet and I can't wait to hear the rest of the new album.

    "You are the dream of many ancestors." I'm on a jampacked train standing skin-to-skin with other people in a car with a broken AC in a tropical city after an exhausting 8 hour shift and I'm just trying to survive through this day and, for some reason, I see this line and my eyes are watering and my heart is, at once, too big and too whole and too empty.

    In order to be born you needed: 2 parents 4 grandparents 8 great-grandparents 16 second great-grandparents 32 third great-grandparents 64 fourth great-grandparents 128 fifth great-grandparents 256 sixth great-grandparents 512 seventh great-grandparents 1,024 eight great-grandparents 2,048 ninth great-grandparents For you to be born today from 12 previous generations you needed 4,094 ancestors over the last 400 years. Think for a moment about how many struggles and battles, how much sadness, happiness, love stories, and hopes for the future they have to undergo for you to exist in this present moment. You are the dream of many ancestors. And somehow, you managed to live in the same timeline as Nightwish 💖
  • I listened to Stargazers 15 years ago, and decided to become an Astronomer. Now I'm about to complete my Ph.D. I recently gave a TEDx talk about how the Night Sky unites Humanity, and how Astronomy can foster kindness and compassion in our world, and bring people together. No matter who we are, our background, the night sky inspires us! I have the same feeling with this song, this masterpiece. Not only the Universe, Life unite us, Nightwish also unites us! Hail, Nightwish! For the countless inspirations across the world!
  • Can we just take a minute to appriciate the playing and amazing sound of Jukkas bass.
  • People got to understand Tuomas is not making music just for us living fans anymore, he's making music for generations to come. It's very clear for me. He's in a quest for legacy.
  • @seinakimura4201
    "You are the dream of many ancestors" that line hit me hard
  • Since I was listening to this group for years and love them deeply, I feel like we grow together, as if they weren't existing before I was born. Nightwish is definitely more than a musical entity, it's a long story that gradually connecting you itself.
  • My best friend suddenly passed away a couple months ago. Nightwish was our favorite band. I still remember us during lockdown, listening to Human Nature and just being so excited. 🙂 We eventually got to see Nightwish live in 2022. I was so excited to listen to this with her. But I just feel horrible.
  • @user-nz1le5bk3j
    The text in the beginning gave a whole new meaning for the instrumental part. What an experience. Thank you Nightwish, can’t wait for the whole album🤯
  • Raise your hand if you are one who believes that there's magic behind every Nightwish's song
  • Perfume Of The Timeless has reached 2 million views in one month. Thank you everyone here for contributing to this. 🥰
  • @GOTGames
    Nightwish reminding every person in the world just how special they are.
  • @FrozenMonkee
    I’ve been a fan of Nightwish for nearly 25 years now and I think of all of their albums as an amusement park with each song being its own ride where you close your eyes and let the music take you on a journey of twists, turns, loops, vivid imagery, laughs, tears, and amazing feelings that you want to ride again.
  • As a relative newcomer to Nightwish, I think this latest material is a perfect evolution of the band. As in nature, nothing stays the same through time. Everything changes. As the band mature so does their music. Tuomas has grown and flowered into this master of the art of dramatic music, full of power and emotion. His creations are as complex as life itself. The whole group has matured into a powerful, dynamic, 3D experience that blows me away.

    What a song. What a chorus. What a band. What a privilege to be alive.
