Thank the gods she got cured from breast cancer. She is a awesome lady to meet
Welcome back !!
She' s not necessarily cured but the odds are in her favor. My understanding (I'm not that smart, ...my girlfriend is a breast cancer survivor) is that there is a 10% chance of reoccurence with the highest risk coming in the first 2 years.....IIRC she had a lumpectomy and not a masectomy, so it wasnt a big tumor.....but remember, this is Floor. Jansen...she destroys cancer cells everytime she hits that last note in Ghost Love Score!
@@donlarsen5685Just give her body to time to fully heal.
Son of a 5 year breast cancer survivor here.
(I know those same cells are coursing through my body #mindful)
I missed getting to meet the band in 2014 by 30 minutes, after I had bought 2 VIP tickets. I could have absolutely left a back seat driving cunt on the side of the road...Bitch cost me $150 for nothing.
lol, All that to say I'm super jelly.
No one is ever "cured of cancer". The best you can have is being in remission for the rest of your life. But once you have cancer, your body is almost predisposed to having it reoccur. Once your cells have developed the mutation that causes unmitigated multiplication (tumors) they have a higher chance to have it happen again even in different parts of the body. I have an aunt that survived breast cancer only to have it come back in her bones. Obviously age, overall health and how serious the initial cancer was play a part but anyone that has cancer will need to have regular screenings for a very long time if not for the rest of their lives. The goal is for the need to for screenings to become less frequent.
Where have you been all this time Julia. One of the two TOP reactors and music analysts on UA-cam today, so this is a great privilege to hear you again reacting on a Nightwish song. Yes Floor is in a class of her own ❤
I concur.
Over on Elizabeth’s channel, actually... in person. :]
The other being the Charismatic Voice I hope
hear hear!
I agree on Julia's analysis is both technical and well presented. Subscribed!
I question legitimacy of some vocal analysts on YT. I won't say who though.
Watch when Floor starts descending from the D6..... smiling like a Cheshire cat.... like it's nothing!!!! My Queen!!!
Julia is so excited with this song she doesn't have her usual whispery ASMR voice, she's just overtaken with infectious joy!
Love that for her! 😹
I watched them live in December, she "just" had serious surgery and she still rocked like the queen she is ... I love this band so much ....
Same here Alex 😊👍
We did Berlin late november and just back,but some gig!. .glad Floor saw it off.
saw them in november in London, just over a week after the surgery
saw them in Amsterdam in November and they where fantastic.
Recently ;)
"Damn. I don't want to necessarily keep repeating myself but....DAAAMN!"
Describing Nightwish in a nutshell
Floor Jansen Have a amazing stage presence and a voice from heaven.😇🤘😇🤘
I know this is about singing and mostly about Floor but omfg do I love watching Jukka play with Nightwish. The energy he brings to the stage is fantastic.
Valid - I think it’s simply him having a good time that’s contagious to the point where we can feel it through the screen!
Yes, Kai is great but he just doesn't bring it like Jukka did. And there's a huge hole where Marko was. The lineup in this video is the ultimate Nightwish lineup.
Did you know...that Romanticide last part (Marko metal rap, double bass drumming etc.) was originally part of the Nemo song, but after a very long struggle they couldn't get it to work and they took it out. Tuomas have many times talked about how sometimes "you have to be ready to kill your darlings from the song" and this is one of those. After the struggles with Nemo, they put the Romanticide together and this part that didn't work in Nemo found its rightful place.
Wow, that was educational, thank you!
It is crazy how that works sometimes - that would be quite a twist for the dramatic ballad that is Nemo... 😹
Thanks for the insight 😊
Fun NW history!!! Thank you!
As I’m not a singer, am a physician so understand anatomy and physiology as well as physics. Your use of anatomical discussions of how sounds and tones and timbres are produced is much appreciated. I’ve learned a ton about singing/singers from your channel. It has also allowed me to understand how Floor does the things she does vocally much better. She appears to be quite physically gifted by the singing gods…tall with strong core/back, lungs that appear to have > expected capacity, wide and large mouth with probably significant oropharyngeal space, skull shape also likely adds into her resonance and tone as well. She is the Secretariat of vocalists in that manner and that combined with her dedication to the craft and work ethic makes her the vocalist we all love. Wasn’t disappointed in the joy/amazement on your face with the slide at end 🤘. You’ve got a lot of catching up to do with some newer stuff from Nightwish and Floor both. This definitely brightened my work day so thank you.
"Secretariat of vocalists" What a great line!!! 👍👍👍
@@dougel4709 Ditto!!!! 😂
@@dougel4709 Appropriate, given that she has the lungs of a race horse.
I can't believe you hadn't already reacted to this awesome song. Love your reactions Julia!
My thoughts exactly!
I concur with my thoughts of thinking Julia had already reacted and analyzed thus performance of “Romancide”. Where have you been, Julia?
Julia. - Please react to and analyze Ren (artist) - “Hi Ren”
Same! hahaha most reactors react to GLS and then they follow up with this.
Devil in the deep dark ocean,..Floor's voice is even more stunning!!! Like your reactions Julia!!!
Spicy suggestion - I’ll support it!
From the Decades tour, right?
And Marko is super sinister!
Please do "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" next. Leaves me shook everytime.
The next level master class in breath control
I concur!
I concur.
YES ! PLEASE !
I LOVE Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean
Thanks Julia for coming back to Nightwish. I love your reactions.
For Marco you could react "High Hopes", their Pink Floyd cover, Marco's voice is really blowing you away...
Yes I am so happy you are back with a nightwish video. I love your analysis of Floors vocals.
Great crowd at that show
Agreed. Her vocal gymnastics in that one are even more amazing.
I concur! Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean is a great one.
YES YES YES! Please do some day!
I concur.
Oh man. Need to go to bed, but Julia's premiering. Decisions. It's been a minute since Nightwish graced the channel!
Nightwish's latest YT release was Floor and Henk Poort doing Phantom of the Opera. was recorded in November 2022 and just realeased a few week ago. Theres some great songs from the last album that you never got to. Noise and Tribal have some great live performances.
Thank you for coming back to the Nightweish Army, Julia! Please cover Dead Boy's Poem from Buenos Aires.
Yesss!!
check out Floor and Nightwish doing "Phantom of the Opera" live with Henk Poort.......you'll never believe her final note in that one.....Floor's breath control is supernatural.....
Well its been sometime welcome back .....The Queen has been patiently waiting for you , there's so much you havent heard from HER .
I wish you would go to her roots with AFTER FOREVER her 1st band .
Well hello Nightwish stranger! Been a hot minute since you did one of them thought you got tired of them? I was about to cry😓 Glad you proved up all wrong. 👍🌹
I love how on the end slide Marco peaks then slides back down as Floor just keeps escalating, adding huge emphasis to her range and power. Ooft :)
Oh yeah, for me it feels like her voice goes through stratosphere because of that Marko’s slide down in the middle of her ascension
My favorite band and the most beautiful Aussy alive
The siren wail, im gonna miss Marko and Floor doing that, the same with their harmonic singing in greatest show on earth.
Who else was anticipating Julias' reaction to 'The Glissando'? 🖐🖐 Ya didn't disappoint!
If you want to experience Floor's performance of what she has described as the most challenging Nightwish song to sing, check out the Wacken '13 version of "Everdream". High belts for days.
Hi Julia. Please we need our Nightwish's dose every month. Congratulations for your reactions.
ive never watched one of your vids before but its ALWAYS fun to watch someone have their first Floorgasms and discover what she is capable of...bravo and enjoy!! 🤗
" Oh that belt seems flipping high" ....... me thinking .... oh just you wait Julia, there's more coming! :)
Welcome back Julia.... and if you haven't checked out the recent concert where Hank and Floor sang again "The phantom of the opera" , you will be surprised. Please do check out! it will be so nice to see you react to that.
I concur!
I concur as well
I concur.
Thanks, Julia. We always adore more Floor. Encore!
.
First let me say YOU ARE THE FLOOR JANSEN of reaction channels. We love you for pretty much the same reasons we love Floor. (See if you can recognize any of yourself in my description of her :) Sure she's got the varied training and experience needed to have great technique, but those alone won't necessarily lead to great storytelling, let alone make one a good front person. She is, above all, very expressive --facial expression, vocal expression, body language, wit and emotion. The default emotion expressed is a mirthful sort of joy that seems to spring from some bottomless reserve. She is very present. She "takes risks," trusting that the audience will accept her choices. Her audience is drawn in whether she is frontperson, cosplayer, co-conspirator, interviewee, voice teacher or reactor. She can perform well with others, and celebrates their success as much or more than her own. We love her, not just because she's talented, but because she's fun and having fun; she's wise and articulate; she tries to include us in her joyful musical journey, and we ALMOST feel like we're there at Wacken 2013, looking out from the stage at all the eager faces, glancing over at Emppu to make sure he's not about to pull a prank, and throwing a quick grin at Tuomas before belting our guts out.
Romanticide has been my #1 or #2 fave since I first heard it. The glissando. That one long, belty harmony. The part where Marco & Floor sing over the ends of each others' lines. The heaviness.
Hi Julia. Great video, as always
Elizabeth and you should do a analysis video of Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean - Live in Buenos Aires.
Great song, great Marko and great Floor
Julia, Wauwwww Finaly a NW song again, i missed youre NW reactions, thnxxx i loved it😁
this masterpiece of a concert will be 10 years old this year... time flies.. crazy...
I must have been a relieve to finally hear very good music again after all this time😊 greetings from the Netherlands
Welcome back to Nightwish and Floor.I love how the band and Floor can excites you every time.I just wish you would react much more to Nightwish. However, this is also the only criticism I can note with you.This video was as always a great pleasure for me, greetings Kelsea
I can't go a day without listening to Floor. How do you go so long? Lol
Great analysis of course :)
So glad to see Nightwish back on your radar. You should check out Everdream from Wacken 2013, at the time Floor said it was her most challenging song. Also nice whenever Marko gets the credit his is due, check out Phantom of the Opera from End of an Era 2005 to see some crazy notes from him, and of course Tarja
”Romanticide” is another “Tarja’a era” song of Nightwish, and I really love the way she picks some “checkpoints” of this song in similar to Tarja’s manner but still gives plenty of “herself”, and that makes her performance incredible technically, and also very respectful to Tarja and individual at the same time.
I've never heard Floor sing Tarja era songs tbh. I'm in love, I need to find if there are album recordings of her concerts lol.
0:00
Looking forward to you’re reaction and analysis of this, it’s one of my Nightwish’s favourites!
14.31 The moment we all came to this video for! Love your reactions Julia.
Julia enjoys the glissando slide!
Markos "Rap", this one does something to me.
Welcome back.
Oh, the vamp returns on your subscribe page!
The lighting effect on Marko when he comes in on vocals after the drum break: His face is sort of lit from underneath. I think that's how the old classic Universal horror films lit characters like Dracula and Frankenstein. That stage crew, this is some well informed lighting technique...
Some of the early videos gave homage to old monochrome movies.
Crewish are the usually unseen members of the band. Their second album called "Twice"?
You really should do the recent Phantom of the Opera that she did with Nightwish and Henk Poort. Worth your time!
Julia's smile almost makes ne forget about the tumor discovered in my shoulder less than 24 hours ago. Great song too
That's a harsh reality. I'm sorry to hear and I hope you recover fully.
I just lit a candle for you. Have faith!
Im a 33 year old dude the last time i cried was when my dog died. But everytime i watch reactions to musicians im ffin sobing i dont know why
Glad to see you back with Nightwish again! As always, a very informative and *entertaining* reaction. I have to say though, I was just sitting there waiting for what I call the "banshee glissando". You didn't disappoint, your face was priceless!!!!!
Oh great to see you back on this one! I was hoping your reaction on this because of...well..obvious reasons. Anyway, for the to do -list, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean would have some nice dramatic parts as well.
Floor said in an interview that she is very careful with how she sings in (warms up) before a performance/practice session and she practices a lot and eats healthy. But she does not excercise and occasionally allows herself a whisky and a cigar. She enjoys life, therefore, haha.
The whiskey and the cigars indeed....That's why Hannes van Dahl (Sabbaton drummer) had to marry her!
Are you two crazy? what are you talking about, what is good here, what are you happy about, alcohol and smoking is not the enjoyment of life, but self-destruction, I know that smokers and alcohol lovers will find excuses to continue smoking and drinking alcohol, but if you love Floor and you care about Floor's health then instead of that, you should be worried about Floor's health and hope that she no longer breathes this poison, if Floor stops smoking and drinking whiskey, will Hannes quit Floor? if he loves Floor then no, the cigar and whiskey are not important. Do you understand how quickly a cigar destroys the female body, even if a woman smokes one cigar a year, and it doesn’t matter what they smoke, electric or non-electric, the smoke of all these cigars rapidly destroys the female body, it affects men more slowly, the cigar causes a lot of types of cancer in women, including breast cancer, smoking in women causes breast cancer most of all. I think Floor doesn't smoke anymore and won't smoke, if Floor smoked after her treatment cancer, it treatment would be pointless, it would be suicide, it can't be that she still smokes after that if she thinks about her health and about her child, then she will stay away from cigarette smoke.
It's a vocal masterclass for every song
I was waiting for your reaction to Floor's banshee wail at the end. lol
We all, rightfully so, focus on Floor. But please take a moment to appreciate the vocals of Marco too.
To me the combination of both of their voices is so beautiful, especially in the chorus.
I am still sad he left Nightwish. I miss his contributions to the band as a whole.
Very nice job, we are very happy that you are returning to one of the best bands (IMO) of our days (music and poetry).
A very very good reaction 😂 your reaction at the end of the video is priceless thanks a lot for this
15:20 - I feel that! 😹
Floor really is a Valkyrie of singing... holy sh!t
Two Goddesses. One singing and the other one reacting
I can't wait when you do Nightwish's You are empty hope, devil and the deep dark ocean, Nightwish feat Tarja Turunen Phantom of the opera. every single one is a real mindblow
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of ❤. This is my favourite band, but lovely to understand why( with reference to musical theory ) that is the case, thank you (again) ❤
Julia🫶
OMG you are one of the top 3 reactors! Your lovely personality and knowledge and ability to educate is awesome! Brilliant 👏👏👏
🫶🫵
I enjoyed your analyses about Floor's voice abilities. You are master doing this! Lots of love!
Hi Julia, greetings from UK 😊
That was yet another fantastic reaction, thank you
I just LOVE your reactions to Floor and to Nightwish. I feel that we are lucky to have you react to them 😁
Love the way you catch the "Semi-Classical" sound at the start of the first chorus and how, without going full classical, she still manages to completely FILL the space with her sound, even ion a giant outdoor festival. Simply magnificent
Luv this!!! 💙
Nice to mention that Floor chose Romanticide to be added on the setlist that time !
I met them a couple of years ago. Floor is over 6 feet tall and beautiful.. If they come your way you must see them. I'll pay for your tickets
Floor is perfect! Her Voice is incredible…strong, intense…lovely… since After Forever, Floor always gave us the best a symphonic rock…
Emppu is a world class lead guitarist, who obviously has practiced his trade for years! Just look at him in that last section of the song....Marco and Emppu just shredding it!!! Bravo!!!
You always deliver! LOVE your reactions and technical explanations. I'm never annoyed when you pause the video, because you are passionate about your craft and you obviously understand it well. There are a few others I love to watch, like Chase Carneson and TankTheTech, but you are tops.
I have really, really been waiting for Julia together with some Nightwish again ♥
Hi Julie....welcome back...Floor's siren welcome you too🙋🙋😀
We've all been waiting for more Nightwish. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You need to check out Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean when they performed in Argentina...Marko is spotlighted in this piece a bit more, where he is the main story teller. Also, check out Floor when she was ReVamp, performing Disdain at Grasspop 2010.
julia the next: Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem - Live In Buenos Aires 2018 - Decades Tour
The fact that she is hitting the 6th octave is impressive, but I have heard other female singers hit that too. The big difference is the volume and resonance that she hits the slide with, that is in a class by itself.
I would have bet a vocal chord that you had done Romanticide way back. The more my anticipation to your reaction to the glissando at the end.
Cheers from Germany 🤘
I love a consistently healthy belt and impeccable breath management Julia allied with your wonderful facial expressions 😉. Thanks to a friend I was introduced to Nightwish and Floor just over 12 months ago having been a lifeling Electric Light Orchestra (E.L.O.) appreciator and I have immersed myself in everything from the wonderful Tarja and Annette eras and now the incomparable Floor. I cannot now imagine a day going by when I don't listen to this phenomenal band especially live. In my humble opinion Tuomas and E.L.O.'s Jeff Lynne are up there with the best composer songwriters ever. Thank you Julia for a smorgasbord of a reaction as always. Paul 🙏😊👍❤️
As much energy in the analysis as the performance! Well done. Excellent editing, by the way, that conveys your natural enthusiasm and builds on it in much the same way as the music itself builds to its conclusion. 👏
Yes, Julia is back ❤️🤘
Do, the Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Julia 👍😇
The Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy and her Brothers will blow you away for sure 😇😇😇
Just in case it's not on your radar yet. If you want to hear the most pitch perfect choir: Ayreon - The Eye Of Ra (Universe) 😄
Thanks for you reacctions para nuestra Diosa Nordica !! Nuestra Valkiria! Nuestra Reina del Metal Sinfónico de todos nosotros si ejercito !! Sus fans Metaleros !¡! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🎵🎵 Logico para esta super o Mega Banda Nightwhish!¡🤘🤘🎸🎸
She's slinky on stage. What a performer!
The beginning vocal stabs are something Floor decided to do live. Wow Julia! What a detailed vocal technique analysis. Loved it.
Been waiting for this one 🙌
I have been waiting so long for this 🤟
Floorgasm is one of the best things in metal, rock, music in general. Gotta love it!
11:00 she also smokes cigars and drinks Whisky :D ... hjow she met Hannes, her husband, drummer for Sabaton ;)
I love your reactions, very authentic and informatives ♥
Lovely analysis and breakdown!! Thank you.
GLS is my favourite song to watch with reactors new to Nightwish, but Romanticide is my favourite to watch knowledgeable people like you analyse! Great breakdown. On a different note, as a fan of the English language I really appreciate how Tuomas plays with the words in this one, all the assonance in the chorus and the double meaning of "part" (notice how in the original "till death do us part" it means 'to separate', whereas in "till love do me part" it has become 'to cut in two'). Also the storytelling in the choice of vocal quality is spot on!
BTW, in case nobody's mentioned it, in the original version it was just Marko on the "siren" at the end. He once said that with Floor in the band he no longer had to hold back vocally, and I guess this sort of thing contributed to that...
Holy cows!! Thank you Ms. Nilon!! I really needed this today.
Always love your musical dissection, you know vocals, and how to describe them to us garden gnomes, like one in a million miss.
I absolutely love everything Nightwish and Floor Jansen, so any time I get to see your magical analysis and this music I'm one happy camper !!
Carry on doing this whole concert, and then maybe Wimbley 2015 and Tampere 2016 LOL, Not being greedy or anything at all right? ;-)
It's about time u got this song. I've been waiting for this for ages.... so happy 😊
awsome reaction as usual
Great reaction and analysis!
Live your reactions. Always learning from it. Thank you Julia
🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻 Can't wait for this one
Glad you are back, excellent reaction, missed you...
Welcome back Julia, that was a great review and great rock. THANKS
😘👍 Nice to see you back
Great reaction Julia!
So glad you are back to Nightwish! Keep ‘em coming!
