FantasMic
Nightwish - Topic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wish upon a star
Take a step enter the land
Walk through the air
Take my hand
Wishmaster's will
Join him the quest for dream
A make-believe
Is all we ever need
Wish upon a star
No matter who you are
The second star to the right
Harbinger's gate
Beyond the boundaries
Blossom ballet
In the great wide somewhere
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
The master of the tale-like lore
The way to kingdom I adore
Where the warrior's heart is pure
Where the stories will come true

A cub of the king betrayed by usurper
A girl in the rain swearing to her father's name
Belle the last sight for the dying gruesome
The beauties sleeping awaiting
Deep in a dream
For true love's first kiss

Bald Mountain Night
Devilheart endures but light
A mad aerial dance
Chernabog's succubi
Black Cauldron born
Gurgi's heart forlorn
Pig-keeper or hero
On a quest of augury
Maleficent's fury
The spindle so luring
Dragon fight, dying night
Dooming might
Apprentice of Yen Sid
Conducting the galaxy
Dreamer on mountaintop
Spellbound masquerade
The Sailor an idol for the six-year-old in me
The Phoenix of White Agony Creek
Enchantress, A mermaid in a tale as old as time
A Dragonslayer, The Awakener
Wish upon a star

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nightwish's song "FantasMic" invite the listener to enter a world of imagination and fantasy, where anything is possible. The song begins with an invitation to make a wish upon a star and enter into a magical land. The Wishmaster, a character who governs over wishes, is introduced, and we are urged to join him on a quest for dreams. The lyrics continue to paint a picture of a world beyond our everyday reality, full of beauty, mystery, and adventure. The references to well-known fairy tales and fables such as Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, and The Sword in the Stone paint a vivid world of magic and wonder. The song tells us that all we need to truly experience this world is to believe in our will and dreams.


The lyrics to "FantasMic" also reference a number of characters from Disney films, such as Chernabog from "Fantasia", Maleficent from "Sleeping Beauty," and Yen Sid from "The Sorcerer's Apprentice." These characters serve as gatekeepers to the realm of fantasy, and the lyrics imply that only those who have passed their tests and challenges can truly experience the magic of the fictional world. The song takes on a darker tone towards the end, with references to darkness and evil, and the final lines of the song suggest that not everyone who enters the world of fantasy will come out unscathed.
