Floor and Nightwish is something else, no autotune, no pitchcorrection, Floor is a vocal nerd she once said in an interview. Practiced thousands of hours in front of a mirror! Mainstrem vocalists , it's mostly with autotune and pitchcorrection!!!
"A princess and a panther by my side These are Territories I live for I'd still give my everything to love you more". Nightwish is their own genre and no other band comes close to the level they are at. Never, in the history of music entertainment, have a set of skills and talent collided in such powerful manner. Tuomas is a true genius as a composer and with lyrics.
I definitely agree with you, this band has and will continue be the best in the world. They have given me great joy for over 15 years through the dark and good times.
R.I.P. Dear Ann Waychoff, mother of all Nightwish fan (june 28th 2020). This song is dedicated to her, because she loved this song so much and the poem is called LOVE
Enjoyed your reaction! Song of Myself is inspired by the poem of the same name by Walt Whitman. Tuomas is a big fan of his work and wrote the spoken word section in the style of Walt Whitman as a tribute to him. On the album the song is composed of both the musical section and the spoken word section but live the only perform the musical section but display the lines from the spoken word section on the video wall. At the end of the live performance you can see the last line, And there forever remains that change from G to Em, on the big screen. This video was made by a fan by combining the Wacken live performance from the Showtime Storytime DVD with the the spoken word section from the album as a tribute to Ann Waychoff who passed away about 4 years ago. Ann was a big fan of Nightwish and the mother of the Nightwish Army. She started the tradition of welcoming first time reactors with some information about the band, a tradition that Gabrel has nobly continued in her honor after her passing. We are forever grateful to him. Ann was also largely responsible for making the Nightwish Army the welcoming and generally positive space that it is. Many fans have mentioned how she would privately help them with what ever struggles they had in their lives. Song of Myself was her favorite song and so whenever we here it we always remember and honor her.
Thank you for reacting to a real favourite Nightwish song of mine. There are things in this song, notwithstanding the poem at the end, that speak to my soul. Floor’s presence on stage is absolutely dynamic. She commands the stage like few others. I love that she sings a lot in her low register. We all know what an amazing range and when she goes operatic or belts it’s off the charts but listening to her rich lower range is gorgeous. You mentioned Marko’s singing and you’re right that he could a front man in any band. That slide up he does is an added perk in the song. I agree that Emppu really does have a unique sound and style to his playing. Jukka is one of my favourite drummers to watch. He is so dynamic with his playing. And Tuomas? What more can be said. I give the video editor credit for the shot near the end when they’re doing the pyro blasts. The 2nd is timed and filmed brilliantly with what Floor does. I recommend going to that section and watching it again. The poem? Well, because of personal experiences there are so many parts of it that turn my soul inside out and brings me to tears. Sorry I went on quite a lot here but this performance really hits me in many ways! ❤🤟🫶
I will never forget the moment I discovered Nightwish, the first to react was Ann, who guided me through the repertoire of Nightwish. Now still a big fan. Thank you and rest in peace.🤟🏻🤟🏻🎶🎶
I tell from experience, is ridiculous how good they sound live, not just the mixing on the videos, live live it's amazing. Keep digging the rabbit hole... cheers from Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!
"sometimes within, is piano black - piano black, over pristine waters" are you kidding me ? Tuomas is one of the only song writers who can come up with a line like that. This song just reaches out and grabs ya. This song always takes me to the calm moonless nights at sea a 1,000 miles to the nearest land with the Milky Way glistening off the ocean. The same sky Columbus, Magellan, Drake and all the rest used to navigate their way. Humbling doesn't begin to define the sight. Marko and Floor together was magic. If you wanna hear Marko blow your minds, check out "High Hopes" from the End of an Era concert. Also, if you haven't heard Nightwish new song "Lanternlight" check it out. It will take your breath away. Rest In Peace Ann, we all miss you.
This song was right after performing Ghost Love Score in the playset and followed by Last Ride of the Day. Yeah, they sucked the energy out of the crowd and returned it as perfection. I'm 72 years old and was sure my days of having a band stir me were long past. Never happier to be wrong. In the army now for 9 months and the rest of my life without a doubt!
R.I.P Ann Waychoff mother of the Nightwish Army. June 28th, 2020 This is your song. If you ever have to explain the Groove in Metal to someone - play this tune. Until the Breakdown hits you with a 10 ton hammer it is all fun and games. But then the slow chugging monster with the machine gun riffing takes over. And for every Metal Head this lights up the day. Awesome….Imho one of the best songs ever. Sometimes the sky is piano black…. Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries and Stonehenge, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
Very nice reaction guys. You talk about the great sound quality of the recording of the Nightwish concert at Wacken 2013. Marko Hietala was the sound engineer for the post-production of the recording, so it is not surprising that the sound is so good.
RIP Ann, I 'met' you in the comment section of this song. You will never be forgotten. Great reaction and thank you for giving the ending the respect it deserves by letting it run though. One day I may possibly listen to this without tears, today was not that day.
Beautiful ending for this song! Tuomas is not only a genuis on the keyboards, but his song writing is extraordinary! The poetry in this song and the poem end is Tuomas' ode to Walt Whitman's Poem, Song Of Myself written in 1892.
I found you thru your THE WARNING reactions and now NIGHTWISH !! first ,,love your reactions both of you so refreshing. But now you have two of the best fan base Army's. I'm here for the ride!
What I totally love about this show is, Floor is obviously totally amazing, but playing totally live in front of 82,000 people, Floor had been with them about 6 months I think, but she sang 15 songs in this set and totally nailed everyone of them! Long live the goddess of metal !!!
You might have realised that this was the live performance with the poem from the album added at the end. It was actually being displayed on the screen behind the band at the concert.
Love your background visuals. Always fun to spend a Saturday morning with both of you. Emppu plays rhythm along with the drum accents. Tuomas composes these songs in that style. This is a fan created video. The ending poetry in on the record, but not done live. For obvious reasons. This is based on the inspiration for the song. A famous poem from Walt Whitman of the same name from 1858. We could see it on your face Gringa. When the poem started you looked emotional saddened and troubled. Tuomas always makes us think about our experiences in life from the human perspective. Is it a wonder why Nightwish fans are so avid and totally invested in the music and lyrical messages?
Hi Guys thank you for your Amazing Review of a super song By Nightwish, I am a lifetime fan, only just found your channel, but I have sub to it, and I will be back for more. once again Thank Guy's
Emppu's rhythm style : very, very percussive. Heavy on the palm mute and gate (you know it's muted because he can/does let it ring out and sustain when it's needed...e.g. the little bits of feedback/sustain in the mid-section here) I think the EQ'ing on his guitar us just as interesting... both Nightwish and Ayreon carve out a big sonic space between about 300 and 800 Hx for the vocalist(s). I personally think it's one way they make the live shows so 'listenable'. By not boosting the mids in the guitar, it become much easier to hear the vocals. Also notice how Tuomas' keyboards are often emphasizing the upper notes. Not Nearly so mush chord-grabbing in the C3-G4 range (where a lot of the vocals occur)...Looking at Ayreon for a similar example, listen to what the band does when Floor pops onto the stage during her brief bit in 'Everyone Dies'... EVERYONE pulls back a bit and opens up that mid-vocal frequency band. And the result is that glorious, dominating vocal presence. Anyway.. It's 6 AM Do you know where your Inner Arrangement Nerd is? - - I do... he just woke up in my third cuppa coffee. Take Care, youngsters.
One thing I absolutely love about NW reactions is the occasional comment about Ayreon (among trve connaisseurs, of course) 😎 Think they're ready for TDTTWBD or indeed "Ayreon - Everybody Dies (Ayreon Universe)"?
The full show from Wacken 2013 with Floor Jansen on vocals - all in 5.1 surround sound! Filmed in front of 85 000 screaming metalheads with seventeen different cameras. Total concert runtime 85 minutes. SONG LIST 01. Dark Chest Of Wonders 02. Wish I Had An Angel 03. She Is My Sin 04. Ghost River 05. Ever Dream 06. Storytime 07. I Want My Tears Back 08. Nemo 09. Last Of The Wilds 10. Bless The Child 11. Romanticide 12. Amaranth 13. Ghost Love Score 14. Song Of Myself 15. Last Ride Of The Day 16. Outro (Imaginaerum)
Marko the bassist really also is a great singer; he had been the leadsinger of the metal band Tarot for a long time. His duets with Floor are gorgeous. If you want to listen especially to his voice watch "High Hopes" (Helsinki 2005, tribute to Pink Floyd), "While your lips are still red" (Wembley 2015) or "The Islander" (Tampere 2015). Or if you like it really heavy "Master Passion Greed" (no live performance). Unfortunately he left Nightwish 2021 for personal reasons. He is still missed (especially by Floor) although Troy does his best to take over at least some of his singing parts (backvocals).
Song of Myself is part of the concept album / film music Imaginaerum. The daughter of the main character has become estranged from her father because he didn't tell her everything he should have told her. When he gets dementia, he starts writing it all down. This becomes a work of art that he calls Song of Myself. The creation of Song of Myself is a race against oblivion and death. In the end, he loses and wins at the same time. It is inspired by the poem of the same name by Walt Whitman. It was only played live on this tour and the quotes were shortened. The quotes are from Song of Myself and are spoken by the band members and the actors in the film. There is more Disney on the current album. Tuomas has perfectly fused band and orchestra: Nightwish - An Ocean Of Strange Islands (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO)
@@k.l.7788 I remember the actors, but I can't find a source for either. As a producer, I would have used the actors because I'm sure the result will be good and I've had contact with the actors anyway. The actors can record it quickly and easily.
@@Mischnikvideos I believe the feeling has always been the first thing for Tuomas. I mean, for Scrooge album he flew to Scotland to record the scottish wind because Scrooge was from there in the original story. ❤️
Marco and Floor together is sheer poetry, such an awesome song, you want heavy.....Master Passion Greed, but there's a story behind that one that helps explain the song, 👍👍🤘🤘
Meny great band in Finland. BATTLE BEAST NOORA LOUHIMO Whers Angels Fear to Fly official music video. Noora female HEAVY Metal Singer incredible voice.
Tuomas loves the poet Walt Whitman, who wrote Song of Myself - poem in 52 sections. So this song was inspired by that poem. A lot of bands have songs with lyrics that are very secondary to the music. Nightwish never does - the entire message is important. Thanks so much for playing the whole video. Have really been enjoying your reactions.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song affirming that true harmony and peace can only be found by accepting and validating those around us - regardless of beliefs, background or any other distinction - in order to create a more peaceful world for all. P.S. It would be nice if you'd also include the link to the original video and support the artist/band yhay way too.
The quality of this Nightwish *Wacken 2013* performance can compare with The Warning's recordings at *Teatro Metropolitan* in 2022 and at the *PEPSI Center* the year after. You can practically chose any song from these three shows and get TOP QUALITY.
That music brings to my mind a vision of a Valkyrie and a squad of vikings, and the vikings all have machine guns they are using as musical instruments. Just da da da dah! And then ethereal vocals, then open fire again.

Probably the heaviest and angriest song, both musically and lyrically, I would say is "Master Pasion Greed" from the album "Dark Passion Play". That song is said to channel the anger that the band felt about Tarja's husband at the time (not confirmed by the band though). There is no music video or live recording of this song as it has never been played live, and never will be. - This is a fan made vide of the song: ua-cam.com/video/Bkib0dIziXk/v-deo.html&pp=ygUebmlnaHR3aXNoIG1hc3RlciBwYXNzaW9uIGdyZWVk - This is a lyric video of the song: ua-cam.com/video/PK3H77p0vrk/v-deo.html And here's the lyrics: www.nightwish.com/songs/master-passion-greed
If I may say End of an Era is the best recorded concert of Nightwish you guys should check it out, Phantom of the Opera, Wishmaster, Sleeping Sun, High Hopes(Pink Floyd cover) Marko kills it in that song
R.I.P. Ann Waychoff. I'm proud to be alive during the time you're teaching me about Nightwish. 124 Spider, your friend forever, where ever you are ❤❤❤❤❤❤
when tarja and nightwish go different direction. i really hope that marko is nightwish new lead singer, but maybe nightwish should be female vocalist. thanx to great reaction and have wonderful sunday.
Thanks guys for reacting to the complete version of this masterpiece. So many other reactors stop as soon as the band stops playing without hearing and knowing the background. R.I.P. I feel like fraud because I didn’t know you but the love you felt towards the band makes me feel like a kindred spirit ❤
????? - I have never heard that ending! Are all other reactors just skipping it? Anyhow, I am not a poetry guy. Much far from that. But some poetry do hit me - and this did. Maybe the preparation by Nightwish helped some. But the poetry was a collection of short poems (or at least so it felt) that all had something profound and unexpected to say. I am in another mood now.
This song is a tribute to the poem in 52 chapters, One for every week of the year, " Song of myself " by Walt Whitman 1819-1892.(one of the co-founders of US poetry). The 7th line of the song is ""Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the Ride""". The extended official studio version of this song has, at the end, a poem as a tribute to Whitman and his style **so it only seems that it is a collection of poems** ,made by Tuomas, There are video's with and without the poem, on the blue ray " Showtime-storytime " the song is without the poem ,so it depends on what the reactor takes.
@TJandTheGringa you should react to Wings of Darkness from 1986 and then if you want the 20th Anniversary of the song. His solo stuff and side projects.
R.I.P. Ann you will always be the beloved mother of the Nightwish Army 😥❤🙏🌹
Floor and Nightwish is something else, no autotune, no pitchcorrection, Floor is a vocal nerd she once said in an interview. Practiced thousands of hours in front of a mirror! Mainstrem vocalists , it's mostly with autotune and pitchcorrection!!!
"A princess and a panther by my side

Nice that you played the whole thing including the fan-made tribute to the too early passed mother of the nightwish army - Ann Wyechoff.

Very nice reaction guys. You talk about the great sound quality of the recording of the Nightwish concert at Wacken 2013. Marko Hietala was the sound engineer for the post-production of the recording, so it is not surprising that the sound is so good.
The recording was top notch!!
Every Nightwish song you react to will be your next favorite song.... Great Reaction!

Great reaction and thank you for giving the ending the respect it deserves by letting it run though.
One day I may possibly listen to this without tears, today was not that day.
Genius Thuomas is speeking to all of us .
I’m always amazed how many people knew Ann Waychoff. 😉
if you were a fan and commented on old stuff she was always there, and sweet as can be. Greatly missed, and Gabriel does her intro work now.
задолбали спамить ею по поводу и без
Beautiful ending for this song! Tuomas is not only a genuis on the keyboards, but his song writing is extraordinary! The poetry in this song and the poem end is Tuomas' ode to Walt Whitman's Poem, Song Of Myself written in 1892.
This song was the penultimate song and followed ghost love score so fair to say the crowd and band were hyped at this point!
I think the first two speakers were Troy and Johanna Tuomas's wife. Tuomas is in a band with his wife and Troy called Auri. Johanna's voice is amazing
RIP Ann
RIP AW... La Gringa and Jimmi... ! another great reaction... you guys crack me up...🤘
You ROck !! Thank you!
Great reaction and loved you played the poem at the end. That piece is what this song is all about.
thank you for reacting this version. that poem is very important part of the song.

I would describe Emppu's style as "CHUNKY"
That's the exact word I was looking for!! 👌
We miss you so, Ann. Save me a good seat in Valhalla. We'll all meet again. In the meantime, we'll try to live up to your example.
You might have realised that this was the live performance with the poem from the album added at the end. It was actually being displayed on the screen behind the band at the concert.

Let's give some props to Walt Whitman.
Marko won the Finnish version of the "Masked Singer" a few years ago :)
Marko the bassist really also is a great singer; he had been the leadsinger of the metal band Tarot for a long time. His duets with Floor are gorgeous. If you want to listen especially to his voice watch "High Hopes" (Helsinki 2005, tribute to Pink Floyd), "While your lips are still red" (Wembley 2015) or "The Islander" (Tampere 2015). Or if you like it really heavy "Master Passion Greed" (no live performance). Unfortunately he left Nightwish 2021 for personal reasons. He is still missed (especially by Floor) although Troy does his best to take over at least some of his singing parts (backvocals).
hearing those drums simutaniously with the fire pyro shooting is pretty cool with that rhythm and the breakdowns holy smokes
Song of Myself is part of the concept album / film music Imaginaerum. The daughter of the main character has become estranged from her father because he didn't tell her everything he should have told her. When he gets dementia, he starts writing it all down. This becomes a work of art that he calls Song of Myself. The creation of Song of Myself is a race against oblivion and death. In the end, he loses and wins at the same time.
It is inspired by the poem of the same name by Walt Whitman. It was only played live on this tour and the quotes were shortened. The quotes are from Song of Myself and are spoken by the band members and the actors in the film.
There is more Disney on the current album. Tuomas has perfectly fused band and orchestra:
Nightwish - An Ocean Of Strange Islands (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO)
Actually I believe the spoken parts also read by Troy, Johanna (Tuomas’s wife), Tuomas’s parents and Tapio Wilska.
@@k.l.7788 I remember the actors, but I can't find a source for either. As a producer, I would have used the actors because I'm sure the result will be good and I've had contact with the actors anyway. The actors can record it quickly and easily.
@@Mischnikvideos I believe the feeling has always been the first thing for Tuomas. I mean, for Scrooge album he flew to Scotland to record the scottish wind because Scrooge was from there in the original story. ❤️
@@k.l.7788 The actors have a direct connection to the song because they act out the story of the song in the film. Both versions make sense.
@@Mischnikvideos maybe, but still I think it has a lesser meaning to Tuomas than use his loved ones for the voices.
WHAT A BAND!!!!!!!! 😍
Marco and Floor together is sheer poetry, such an awesome song, you want heavy.....Master Passion Greed, but there's a story behind that one that helps explain the song, 👍👍🤘🤘
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done again guys

Nightwish never does - the entire message is important. Thanks so much for playing the whole video. Have really been enjoying your reactions.
Thanks so much for the comment! Love Having you here 💞
Love to hear a new NW reaction
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song affirming that true harmony and peace can only be found by accepting and validating those around us - regardless of beliefs, background or any other distinction - in order to create a more peaceful world for all.
P.S. It would be nice if you'd also include the link to the original video and support the artist/band yhay way too.
The quality of this Nightwish *Wacken 2013* performance can compare with The Warning's recordings at *Teatro Metropolitan* in 2022 and at the *PEPSI Center* the year after. You can practically chose any song from these three shows and get TOP QUALITY.
I concur 😁🤘🤘
A masterpiece! Another hard one is Weak fantasy live at Tampere 2015
Great reaction. Nightwish are always great. Followed them since 2002. Just throwing out a Hagane song, Hero Time. 🤘⚔️
thank you
I love Floors deeper tones, I live for the heavy stuff
For Ann R.I.P dear .we still miss you . Ann Waychoff, mother of Nightwish army ❤❤
That music brings to my mind a vision of a Valkyrie and a squad of vikings, and the vikings all have machine guns they are using as musical instruments. Just da da da dah! And then ethereal vocals, then open fire again.
Probably the heaviest and angriest song, both musically and lyrically, I would say is "Master Pasion Greed" from the album "Dark Passion Play". That song is said to channel the anger that the band felt about Tarja's husband at the time (not confirmed by the band though). There is no music video or live recording of this song as it has never been played live, and never will be.

ok give me a minute ok ready this is a banger the last couple minutes blow the roof off🐕
Masterpiece 🔥❤️ Nowadays Nightwish is basicly only Western World-band I still listening daily, other bands came from Japan 🔥🤘❤️
Song from Human Nature Album ``How`s the Heart`` say this when you actually mean it when you say ``How are You``
Marko it is a front man! he needs to get back home ! we all waiting for this evolution,
Fun fact. Nightwish mixing is the same Finnish guys who mix Lovebites concerts.
That makes so much sense!
Great reaction ❤❤❤ love your Halloween screen❤❤
If I may say End of an Era is the best recorded concert of Nightwish you guys should check it out, Phantom of the Opera, Wishmaster, Sleeping Sun, High Hopes(Pink Floyd cover) Marko kills it in that song
R.I.P. Ann Waychoff. I'm proud to be alive during the time you're teaching me about Nightwish. 124 Spider, your friend forever, where ever you are ❤❤❤❤❤❤
when tarja and nightwish go different direction. i really hope that marko is nightwish new lead singer, but maybe nightwish should be female vocalist. thanx to great reaction and have wonderful sunday.
💓💓
Thanks guys for reacting to the complete version of this masterpiece. So many other reactors stop as soon as the band stops playing without hearing and knowing the background. R.I.P. I feel like fraud because I didn’t know you but the love you felt towards the band makes me feel like a kindred spirit ❤
Thank you so much!! 💓💓
????? - I have never heard that ending! Are all other reactors just skipping it? Anyhow, I am not a poetry guy. Much far from that. But some poetry do hit me - and this did. Maybe the preparation by Nightwish helped some. But the poetry was a collection of short poems (or at least so it felt) that all had something profound and unexpected to say. I am in another mood now.
This song is a tribute to the poem in 52 chapters, One for every week of the year, " Song of myself " by Walt Whitman 1819-1892.(one of the co-founders of US poetry). The 7th line of the song is ""Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the Ride""". The extended official studio version of this song has, at the end, a poem as a tribute to Whitman and his style **so it only seems that it is a collection of poems** ,made by Tuomas,
There are video's with and without the poem, on the blue ray " Showtime-storytime " the song is without the poem ,so it depends on what the reactor takes.
Good pick. Thanks, clearly it was a bull eye 👍
That is a great background :)
Good one.
TY For this🤩🤘
🔥LOVEBITESRULES🔥
😂😂
Marko has been a lead singer for his band Tarot. Marko will be 58 in January
His vocals are awesome‼️
@TJandTheGringa you should react to Wings of Darkness from 1986 and then if you want the 20th Anniversary of the song. His solo stuff and side projects.
Thanks so much for this!
❤❤❤
