Whether it's his clothes or his guitar playing, Emppu is a stylish dude.
Indeed 👍🏻 - G
And not bad looking
@@willasacco9898 for real. Emppu really is a good looking guy
His solos in this one were to die for. Especially the second one.
Emppu’s second solo has so much emotion and hope! It is sort of an prelude of all the amazing things happening to them in the future
Your both smile : great tribute to nightwish and marko. thx
Jukka is on the drums 😉
NW are the only band that has ever given me shivers, goosebumps..and tears. No matter that I know exactly what is coming, the grandeur of their music never fails...add in the emotion of Marko leaving and it took until 2.34 sec before some grit blew in from somewhere.
Thanks
Beautifully put!
That is Jukka on drums, the drummer before Kai
This is Markos crowning vocal glory, this one. "Can Marko sing" ..."Here suck on this"...
Any true Nightwish fan knew this already hehe!
I think even pink Floyd said it was a better version😁.
Emppu treading in the footsteps of the guitarist gods. Great reaction.
Keep on Nightwishing on. 🤘😜🤘
What a Tribute from one awesome Band to another awesome Band. Look in the faces of the guys, after this Show they fired Tarja.
My first exposure to NW was the "Learn this in 48 hrs" video...and Jukka sent my inner 14 yr old girl into HYSTERICAL fits. I had to watch, and then Ever Dream Wacken 13 happened... I will bleed forever. Because Marko....
And THEN....someone did a reaction to THIS. I fell without a shot. They get me in the knees every time. All that testosterone flying around the stage just dazzles me. Perfection, a masterclass in how a tribute SHOULD be done.
Marko always sings the soul right out of my body. This song, While your Lips Are Still Red, The Islander...
I can only hope that he is able to come back to Nightwish, as they all love each other.
Pink Floyd and Nightwish, the best hard rock/ symphonic metal bands ever (existed) and High Hopes connect them. Marko Hietala should also fit excellently in Pink Floyd, so he did in Ayreon and Nightwish. Hopefully he will come back, the best health wishes to him right now (fingers crossed and high hopes).
This is an excellent performance from the year 2005 (End of an Era, Hartwall Arena, Helsinki). Marko's phenomenal vocals, Emppu's solos and Jukka on the drums. They were worried about Jukka's wellbeing. Notice Tuomas's little nod to Emppu and later Emppu jumps down from the drum kitchen. ⛄👍
This band never gets old. There aren't many genuine Nightwish reaction videos around at the moment, so this was very welcome. Thank you.
It’s our pleasure, Jeannette ❤️ - G
Emmpu is the bomb. For those in the know, All Hail the EV-1
May Emppu and the EV-1 bless us all with pinched harmonics and palm mutes!
@@MsCatstaff aye, #palmmutegang
Yes. Tank would be proud. haha.
You know Emppu is a twin, right?... Check out his other band "Brother Firetribe" - song "Heart Full of Fire" with another special guest!
Jukka Nevalainen was playing the drums for Nightwish on all the gigs and albums until 2014. This performance is from 2005 so it has Jukka playing in drums, too.
I still get shivers when I hear this. And I've probably heard it 100 times.
If you notice. Even the lighting crew paying homage to Pink Floyd.
Great as always guys - yeah Nightwish call this a tribute rather than a cover, and yeah it is a great arrangement, knew you would love it :) Thank you!
A Nightwish cover would do any band proud +. I've followed Pink Floyd since the 60's, Roger has written some iconic songs. This cover was awesome. Glad to see Marko, and Jukka. Emppu did what he does, pretty amazing. I'm pretty sure Marko will be back in the future, just not sure in what capacity but once music is in your blood it cannot be suppressed forever and will resurface. Thx for great react guys :)
Please come back. We, "The Nightwish Army", misses you guys!!
Welcome, to Nightwish. :) Here is my list for you......but first.....
Floor Jansen (pronounced Yansen) who is actually Dutch and the 3rd of the bands lead singers.
By the way....she is 6'1" and known as the Valkyrie Goddess.
Marco - Bass and vocals (wait until you hear him sing with Floor and solo....)
This band is going to rock your world dude.
Emppu - Lead guitar
(jokester and very deliberative in his playing)
Jukka on drums, but had to stop due to insomnia (but is still behind the scenes with Nightwish), new drummer is Kai who was the drummer with Wintersun.
Tuomas - keyboards and main song writer/choreographer for Nightwish aka genius. :)
And Troy, who you will see trust me, as he is vocals/flute/woodwind/bagpipes/you name it lol. :)

Oh. This is going to be fun.
Jukka on drums.
Ope. I got it wrong 🤦♀️ - G
@@MikeandGinger 😂😂😂This is from the 2005 End Of An Era concert. Kai joined in 2014.
This was Tarja's last concert. She got the letter later that night
@@MikeandGinger Easy ID Ginger, Jukka always has a bandana, never seen Kai wear one.
I only recently heard this song myself. Couldn’t believe I missed it. Been a fan since before this concert lol, I just never listened to live shows back then. Marko is fantastic and will be missed. It’s a beautiful performance 💞💞💞💞
@@lizziev4510 Has become my favourite version👍🏻
Kiitos from Finland. EUROVISION 2021 FINLAND. Blind Channel - Dark Side. Live
🤘🤘❤🤘🤘🤗✌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of my all time favorite Tributes!!!
It is so amasing... 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Pink floyd foreve. Great composion 😍😍😍😍😍
They can do everything🇫🇮.
The look on your faces said it all.
wow, live, live, people , what a voice and a music masterpiece
Being able to cover Pink Floyd successfully is nothing to scoof at to be honest...and this feels a lot like a Pink Floyd song but with Nigthwish added flavor, I love it. All the guys are fantastic here.
I agree, there's a reason not many PF covers exist. Because it's hard to cover geniuses.
I am a huge PF fan and I’m not offended at all by what you were saying, G. In fact I prefer this version because of the rock (metal) approach and the voice of Marko. And the musicianship and the passion of Tuomas, Emppu, Jukka and Marko (you will be missed). It is a genius tribute of a genius song from a genius band performed by a genius band.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Keep on rocking with NW. \m/
Stay safe people.
❤️ - G
Marko's voice is perfect for this song, and he absolutely kills it!!!
Jukka on drums!
oh my favorit band
So beautiful this cover and Marco Killing it, chillllls❣️
This is more like a tribute to Pink Floyd, I love this version.
I was turned on to the so-called symphonic metal bands by other reactors and I am now a total fan. I know that I will love your reaction , even before I have heard it. Stay safe.
This is just great on all sides, performance-wise.
There's a story that Jukka was fighting migraines during the show, maybe due to the stress of what was about to happen with Tarja. So if you watch, there's a moment where Tuomas gives Emppu a little head nod, to go check on him. But Jukka's a trooper.
Great job, guys! 🤘😎👍
Mike, the grin on your face for the entire time was priceless! Thanks for sharing, as always.
Yep, Tuomas is a genius songwriter, Floor is the best singer in the world, Troy is unique, Kai is awesome - and Emppu - is Emppu - very unique. And Marko - damn...
That’s all true but the true genius’s of this song were Messrs Gilmour, Wright and Mason. This is good but it is still a cover.
Jukka 🖤
Marko and Jukka 😍🤘🏼
I heard that Gosth love score is also Floor's favorite 😊🤘🇳🇱🌈
I love Marko's voice 😊
Hi from Leicestershire something you might like to check out
Heilung lifa in maidjan live this was their first song in their first ever live concert at castle fest
This was 2005, this performance was the last in which Tarja was told that she has to leave the band
Amazing performance like always!!
Jukka rules!
Rec. to Tuomas this is not a cover... It is an tribute👍
Love yours reactions on Nightwish.
Ghost Love Score is Floor's favorite Nightwish song to perform. It is her birthday today so another good choice to do today.
It's Jukka on the drums, not Kai, and he was playing this concert with a migraine.
Ohhhh Marco😢
This was provided for Floor to change her outfit. Awesome.
It was Tarja in this concert - G
@@MikeandGinger
You are right, it is from 2005.
Great tribute to Pink Floyd, each and every guy was shining in this one. Marko, Emppu, Tuomas Jukka.
Gotta hurry to lunch, but there's always time for a good reaction to a good performance first.
Enjoy your lunch! - G
I saw Pink Floyd play the original version live in 1994; it was the first concert I attended and is still the best. I was kind of hoping Nightwish would play this when i saw them in 2012, but they played "Last of the Wilds" in order to give Anette a break.
Well one thing you would never see (even if they were still complete) is Pink Floyd covering Nightwish. If no other reason, it would be because they wouldn't have Floor. :)
M & G nice reaction, thank you. This is 2005 ....Tuomas, Emppu. Jukka, Marco and Tarja. After this concert Tarja was let go and soon replaced by Anette. Jukka left for physical health reasons years later and Marco for mental health reasons this year.
You can always start reacting to Tarot, Marko's own original band.
nightwish covers always hit the target. let´s see what cover they do this year :) thanx to great react and lucky new week there.
I prefer this rendition to the original...
Could you react to NORTHERN KING. We Dont Need Another Hero by Marko,Tony, JP Leppäluoto, Jarkko Ahola.And NOORA LOUHIMO ( Battle Beast ) Eternal Wheel Of Time And Space.Loving the song and the video.
Marko had two great vocal performances at this concert. This one and his duet with Tarja on 'Phantom of the Opera.' Along with Marko's voice, Empuu's two solos were excellent. Superior rendition of this song.
mike is happy
They were not in a happy place during this live show for several reasons:
1. They all knew that Tarja would be fired after the show giving her the famous letter
2. Marko was really sick
3. Jukka might also have had some trouble since Tuomas used his head to signal Emppu (at 2:01 of the original video) to check on Jukka, which Emppu also did after his 1st guitar solo.
P.S. If I remember correctly, this song is #4 on Tuomas' list of his favourite songs, or at least it used to be.
Unfortunate, all around. But a stunning performance nonetheless. - G
If I remember correctly Jukka had a migraine that evening. And he still plays like a God.
@@darkiee69 there is a point where he’s holding his head down. I wondered. - G
Perhaps all these things combined made it to become such an amazing, memorable performance...
If the drummer is wearing a bandana, it's Jukka. I'm not aware of Kai ever wearing one while playing for Nightwish, while I'm not aware of Jukka ever *not* wearing one unless it's a really old video.
TechNic ally it’s not a cover but a tribute. Great version though and it’s Jukka on drums
Think I must have seen over 100 Ghost Love Score reaction vids by now: it never gets old and I still play just the track for it's own sake sometimes. Stil get a shiver down the spine too. Much the same story with Pisces by Jinjer.
nice reaction mike en ginger! one of the best covers of this song if you ask me!
Floor says GLS is her favorite NW song
Great cover of Pink Floyd song. I think Dave Gilmour would say they completely did it justice and Nightwished it. Emppu really killed it and Marco, oh Marco what can you say about him. He is a extremely talented musician and I think maybe irreplaceable. Will be interesting how Toumas reworks songs or maybe they find a new bass player with good vocals. Anyhow that has yet to be seen.
This is not a cover but a tribute to PinkFloyd .
@@hennieniceguy I don’t care what you want to call it because it was awesome
Still waiting for you to do Poet and the Pendulum. We all will miss Marko
React to The swedish band Dirty Loops, rock you
Tuomas I think yearns to compose film scores...
Owowow, guys ....
Loved you for this reaction, really nice, and the way you interacted, as usual, great to see, especially with a great performance by Nightwish.
We're all sad Marko is leaving, for now anyway; let's hope he feels better soon, and relaizes he has to make music again with his brothers and sister ....
Having said that, I myself still have some high hopes too - still waiting for you two to do TPATP ....
May we expect that some time soon?
Really, really looking forward to that ...
Love, warmest regards, Wim
It’s coming up shortly, my friend. Things have been very chaotic here. It’s been very hard to come up with the time to do a 40min song with all the proper reverence. But I have it on our list to get to in the next week or two. So, cross fingers 😊 - G
You did a reaction to Scardust. Don't know if you know this about the vocalist for Scardust, Noa Gruman. Noa Gruman took 2 years of online vocal training from Floor Jansen. Another musician to look up that also had online vocal training from Floor Jansen is Patty Gurdy. I think I previously sent you a video from Patty Gurdy before maybe. She is a great musician with the Hurdy Gurdy instrument that does a combo of Celtic, Pagan, rock and pop music.
Now that's an experience, isn't it?
I think it beats the original❤
This is very early, Tarja is off changing her outfit and matching colour microphone !!
How about this sweet little girl band called, LOVEBITES / Thunder Vengeance [Live at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020] Great drummer and guitarist
Guitarist ? Guitarists !
There’s no weak link in this Band. Goes without saying I’m gonna miss Marko a lot 🥲🤘
Nice.
Ehm, you may wish to check out a 'Metal Pink Floyd' band on their own right, and genre: The Gathering. They also happen(ed) to feature that one much acclaimed vocalist who came to be Devin's Metal Tinkerbell. Both band and singer inspired many who followed in their footsteps. You know which signature performances have been recommended by many by now. Enjoy!
I personally think The Gathering and Anneke together would sound better performing Pink Floyd covers. Annie would sure sounds most haunting than ... many. To my knowledge they never covered them though. And I think they didn't need to as they were very well able to do their own 'Pink Floydy' version of metal. Oh, and fun fact: Tuomas was looking for a singer who would sound 'like Anneke' ... to later find Floor. They're both top tier, with each their own unique and unmatched qualities.
Geezer here, so I have a long loving history with both of these bands. Energy-wise though, Pink Floyd's piper cub just got buzzed by the Nightwish starship... Just saying. Both versions are still in my playlist. Ciao!
It's like Sound Of Silence, do you prefer S & G or Disturbed? They're both great. I love P F version since they have been my favorite band since 1973, but this was very good.
true words
If I didn't call out that you should see this one, then I should have. Can't always recall previous posts.
But yes, I hope Marco leaving is only a temporary thing, though from what I read, he seems pissed more at what music companies are doing and not so much the band, as the band is stuck where it is. But it's also very possible with everything going on in the world, that music companies might have to stop what made him mad, and he might be willing to come back then. Who knows. Here's hoping everything goes well for both of them.
Plus, what's really the point in dramatically leaving the band and public life when no bands are doing anything anyway? I think he'll be back. Maybe the band could include High Hopes as part of their set list once in a while. Who knows, maybe if Tuomas wrote a couple more songs that feature Marko as a soloist and a cool base solo Marko might feel more validated.
@@rudolfo963 He suffers from chronic depression. In late 2020 he's condition took a turn to the worse. So much so that he had to leave that years Raskasta Joulua Christmas tour midway.
I've not read all the comments, but did you notice the bells on Toumas finger nails and the Jack Sparrow picture on the front of his keyboard?
Great reaction M&G from one of my fave reactors.. One helluva a band.
Please checkout Liliac cover of Joan Jetts "I Hate Myself For Loving You".
Now THAT is how you cover Pink Floyd, even though the choice of song comes from after PF had stopped being musically interesting (to me).
Marko is incomparable. If you haven't yet, look up "Masked singer Finland Tohtori". The last word in that search is the character Marko played on the show (spoiler alert--he won. Not even one of the judges guessed his identity correctly (from the reveal show, and based on pictures, as that episode is all in Finnish)). Sit through the weird stuff, the song will follow. There are some... interesting... song choices there.
This is a tribute to PF instead of a cover. Tuomas tuned this for NW style but nicely respecting the original. And yes...they all performed so awesome (as always) but maybe this gives us even more pain now when we know Marco to leave NW.
Was Floor with the band at this time , if she wasnt than i get why no backing vocals but if she was , they blew it by not using her .....great performance regardless.
No. This was Tarja’s last performance, and she was back stage for a wardrobe change for this song. - G
@@MikeandGinger gotcha 👌 thanks !!!
Look LYODRA,,the winner indonesian idol
Trouble is they make it a dramatic doomy song whereas it’s supposed to be a nostalgic song about childhood. Pink Floyd live at Pulse is more tuneful and musical and reflects what’s it’s actually all about the ache of the old days.
I totally understand where Ginger is coming from about missing the "real" Nightwish. It's been a while since the new intro...is it time for a new outro? 👀
I think it gets overlooked that this was a tribute to Pink Floyd, not a cover. 🤘😊
Thanks for your enthusiasm for Nightwish - I love them too -, and I share the feeling of loss for Marko leaving the band. Did I detect a hint of disappointment in Ginger's reaction (hidden behind praise for Tuomas')? I hope it was so. Let us be frank. This cover is a full reinterpretation of the original, a beautiful song about resignation over getting older. The cover is done in style and with great musicianship. But it is a different song.
Not disappointment in this song. Not at all, because you’re absolutely right. It was better than the original, imo. - G
@@MikeandGinger I don't think that the NW version is better, just completely different. I love the original version, too - I have been a PF fan way before I discovered NW. But I'm glad that you enjoyed this one.
