    You would never think the pipes are actually insanely difficult to play when you have someone with Troy's talent making it look so simple. Easy to see why he is in such high demand as a session player outside of Nightwish.

    Today early morning, just before dawn I was walking to work and this song was sounding in my earphones. I was alone on the street and I was looking at this purple-red-gold glow on the sky and I felt like Last Of The Wilds.

  • @randymarple9830

    Surprisingly, not many reactors choose this. Floor doesn't sing. The different sounds of the band, the compositions by Tuomas, the tone of Emppu's guitar, the "walking" bass of Marko, the driving beat by Jukka, and Troys pipe and whistle work, actually show that they can entertain the crowd without Floor. Most new reactors get so hung up on Floor, the guys sometimes are invisible. Floor can sing names out of a phone book and it's cool, but no chills, goosebumps, and tears, without the boys.

      I often lament the fact that Troy is undervalued by the fanbase and so little is written about him in Gabriel's Introduction.
      His contributions to Nightwish predate Floor and shows up in The Islander video among others.

    You should do a streaming session of the whole show as that will give a much better feeling to the atmosphere! E.g. during this song the “Wardrobe accident” happened, bringing Floor in trouble with her outfit. In the next song “Bless the child” you can see her speeding for the microphone and making it in the last second (in the interlude of GLS going backstage to fix the zipper)🤓

I played them Nightwish every day, including this song. They would recognize the music and immediately settle down to listen. On Monday, my last 2 boys, Jukka and Marko are going to their forever home....which happens to also be the home where Kai and Emppu live! The Nightwish kittens will be together forever!

    @wardeni9603 Рік тому +1

    7:55 this is also a good observation. The Uileann pipes are a Celtic folk instrument, and Nightwish also has a tendency to not only blend folk music with metal, but also different styles of folk influence together. So for example in this song I would say it's largely in the vein of Nordic folk music tradition with the slightly melancholic but also almost heroic melody, but there's definitely a Celtic element thrown in there.

  • @billattercliffe8655
    @billattercliffe8655 Рік тому +8

    The previous singer had a break at this point and as Floor had taken over mid tour, it was retained in the setlist. Subsequent setlists no longer contain a break for Floor and she sings the entire concert. These days she's even singing Marko's vocal lines. At the recent Pinkpop festival in the Netherlands she did an hour long solo show and a few hours later, an hour long set with Nightwish. I understand that it was scorching hot during the sets. She earns that glass of wine after the show.
    If you watch the next song in the set, "Bless the Child" you'll see Floor run for the mic as she had a costume change scheduled and things went wrong. The zipper under her left arm was jammed and she had to go on stage with the problem. Later in the set during "Ghost Love Score" you see her reaching for it as she leaves the stage. My guess is this is why Nightwish no longer has costume change breaks. :)

Also , on the endless forms most beautiful album, there's a song called The Eyes Of Sharbat Gula. It's an instrumental that Tuomas said was inspired by the famous national geographic photograph of the Afghan girl with the huge bright eyes. He said when he began to put words to it, Troy I believe, said to put a few atmospheric sounds in it instead, and people would understand. And they have.

    Jeff you look a lot like an old friend of mine Joey Ferraro, if I didn’t know better, I’d say you were brothers. Your last name confuses me a little, no vowel at the end? The name of your studio sounds Italian, you really look Italian, I’m really curious. Where I grew up it was names like Batalia, Versalino, Grispino, and Marcelo. The Ferraro’s ran a night club, back in the 30’s through the 50’s called The Gay Parita Ballroom. Almost everyone I grew up around was Italian, coal miners mostly. That’s why I ask, someone steal your final vowel?😊
