Nightwish – Angels Fall First Lyrics 16 years ago
well this is my opinion, but its like poet has lost someone dear, and the grieving that comes after
the song reminds me of tennyson's in memoriam combined with a blake something....
at least the style

Nightwish – Ghost Love Score Lyrics 16 years ago
i vote for the first love theory, and the bit "you were the one to cut me so i'll bleed forever" is like saying you were the one who introduced me to love, and so now i will continue to love, even if you aren't my partner
at least thats what i think
i get a nostalgic, pensive tone from this song, fits in i suppose, no one really ever forgets their first love, even if they get over that person

Nightwish – Gethsemane Lyrics 16 years ago
ah geez, will people stop believing that nightwish plays gospel rock????
yes there are references to the bible, the same way poets like Blake used biblical references in their poetry
There are also references to greek and egyptian myth, and with this i reaffirm my stand that tuomas is a poetic lyricist
its very typical of poets to make references to ancient mythology and the bible and take your knowledge of these for granted in order to express what they actually want to

Nightwish – Nemo Lyrics 16 years ago
halleluiah to the person who finally suggested odyesseus
tuomas is more a poet than a songwriter, and because his songs have characteristics similar to the high fantasy genre in literature, it was inevitable that greek myth would be used, more prominent in Siren
again, about odyesseus and the sirens
moreover, he's known to link his songs, so i vote for the odyesseus theory
