- First viewing and listening to Ghost Love Score by NightWish (Wacken Open Air)
Massive thank you to Phillip Hamilton and Renske van der Haagen for suggesting this for me to listen to :)
• NIGHTWISH - Ghost Love...
#Nightwish #GhostLoveScore #Metal
Thanks soo much to everyone who has kindly commented. I'm relieved to know there's a scientific reason for what I felt at the end of this song (and that it has a proper name)😂 In the past, I would be going through and replying to everyone's comment. It's super difficult for me to do that right now, but I promise I am scrolling through everyone's comments and seeing them and the recommendations. Thank you again and there'll be more NightWish reactions to come!
they competed in eurovision with song SLeepwalker and got i think 2nd place or were disqualified because the song was "too heavy" if i remeber correctly i think t was 2001 or later cant tremeber
@@ivsalimeni3049 Actually _Sleepwalker_ won the public Televote and got about 38% of all votes. However there was an "expert" jury consisting some minor celebrities and other assholes who got the last word and dropped Nightwish to 5th out of 6, which meant 3rd position in total votes.
@@TK8866275 true,it was looong time ago i wasnt sure but i remeber something like that,as i said it was loooong time ago :)
Beautiful reaction to one of my most favorite songs. If you want to dive deeper into the ocean of Nightwish and Floor Jansen I recommend Romanticide (Wacken 2013), The Poet and the pendulum (Wembley 2015) and Ghost River (Wacken 2013). Honestly you can take any song from Wacken 2013, since this was an absolutly stunning performance.
Some mentioned the show The Beste Zangers which is a Dutch TV show and took place end of last year. There Floor performs solo in an environment where every episode 6 singers perform for one. So it is not a competition but a fun art act. Floor performed Shallow from Lady Gaga there for example or the Phantom of the opera or Vilja Lied and and and... All worth to watch.
Like I said yesterday....LOL...About have any recommendations?......12K views in 24 hours....LOL
I've watched 50+ Floor reactions and the Floorgasm still gets me EVERY time.
Never gets old 😁
Now that is someone REACTING. When hearing something beautiful shows in your face and body. You, sir, have the kind of relationship with music I can appreciate.
"I may skip over your favorite part" ... Oh, summer child, you know nothing.
That final high note , every time, without fail, brings tears to my eyes
Thats called a Floorgasm. The femals singer name is Floor Jansen (Dutch Valkyrie). Next I would suggest Romanticide, Ghost river, storytime, ever dream, i want my tears back and song of myself from this concert (Wacken 2013). if you want more epic and long like this take Greatest show on earth from Tampere 2016.
More details from history from band will follow for sure from the incoming noghtwish army. stay safe
She is My Sin and Song of Myself(Wacken 2013) and Weak Fantasy Live Tampere, and The Poet And The Pendulum Live Wembly
where are the poet and the pendulum? the best song of nightwish history.
Poet and the pendulum is one of their best but i think you need time to get to know the band and their history better to understand this song
The famous Floorgasm still gets me every.time. She's just perfection. The only reason I went from "meh." To "omfg" about Nightwish.
Floorgasm hahahha
She can growl, she can sing opera, she can be popy, shes the best, and she has another awesome singer accompanying her, the basist, Marco, is an epic singer too.
I heard him sing in their phantom cover (I believe it was him. Thought he was amazing! Thanks for watching
@@TheMuserResolute yeah Marco and their first singer Tarja Turunen 🎩😍
@@petrkvapil4139 Some People say Floor is the Female Fredie Mercury
Floors Phantom Cover is the best!
@@stefanh1810 absolutely- both are amazing 🎩😍
Nice reaction. Very smart to NEVER edit a Nightwish song . The Backlash would be epic. Lol
I dodged a bullet and was floored in the process 😂 Thanks for watching!
@@TheMuserResolute You also probably had one of the most visually apparent Floorgasms to date. To quote the younger generation, you looked "shooketh" :P
@@TheMuserResolute Bro, can you react on Floor + Henk Poort - Phantom of the Opera?
I like that version much more than Nightwish version, it's incredibly beautiful. Henk Poort is an opera singer and original Dutch phantom. Their voices match nicely, the music arrangement is great (Marcel Fisser's band) and I love what Floor & Henk are doing on that stage, so it's not just the music but even their body language, the chemistry between them. Perfect!
It's from the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers. Basically a bunch of top singers meet there and sing songs for each other. It's not a competition, just singing for each other, really nice concept. Besides Phantom, I would also recommend:
* Floor - Vilja Lied (she's singing in German and it's a rock-ish opera style) she sung this for Henk
* Floor - Que se siente (she's singing in Spanish for Rolf Sanchez, the guy sitting on the couch, it's his song, originally salsa)
* Floor - Mama (singing in her native Dutch language) for Samantha (also sitting on the couch) who originally sings it.
* Floor & Tim Akkerman - Shallow (by Lady Gaga)
its like if you react they will come...
@@Ministry_0f_Truth i would love to see a Version with Marko and Floor as well, because Marko is so epic in the duett with Tarja back then.
Best floorgasm I've seen in a while! That paralysing slack jawed look. Priceless!
Actually laughed so hard at this comment :') !
Never get's old indeed.
I love watching someone having their first Floorgasm!!! Never gets old! Your channel is about to explode!
Music react youtubers should pay Floor Jansen
I'm stealing the term floorgasm lol
@@chaptheswagsire Go ahead, It´s been around for quite a while
@@davidsosa538 ah i had no idea i rarely go to the comment section of youtube for reasons lol. I exposed nightwish to all my friends and they are typically blown away dare i say having a floorgasm lol.
Floorgasm. Freaking love it.
You ask what do we Nightwish fans feel with this song? Well, you described your feelings as 'blown away' and 'goosebumps all over', well, it's been like this for the past 16 years for me EVERY TIME I listen to this song since it came out back in 2004 and to top it all Floor's rendition is like the icing of the cake. Absolutely marvelous. Like I say:EVERY FUCKING TIME.
This was my 1st Nightwish experience. I’d never heard of them. THANK YOU for introducing me to amazing, technically and scientifically beautiful music. I love knowing there are others like me out there who FEEL the music as emotion and crave these experiences.
I'm so glad I could introduce you to them!! They're so amazing :) Thank you for watching
Hello @ Music Teacher Reacts (Mike)! Nightwish Army incoming here, your reaction just appeared on our radar..
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing in front of a 82k+ people, at the Wacken Open Air festival. You know, what you felt in the last minute (goosebumps, full body shivers) have a name actually, it's called FLOORGASM (after Floor Jansen's name, the singer).. Watching that, I decided to subscribe, because you have the inner opening to became one of us..
Since this is your first Nightwish experience, I'll give you the short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan:
" Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrulmentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "

Thank you! Waiting for more Nightwish reactions. All the best from RO. Stay safe.
Thank you. I'm glad it has a name! Will look at your recommendations :) I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment :)
@@TheMuserResolute This is one of the best guides to Nightwish. Awesome reaction man! Nightwish army is here to stay! Keep doing the LIVE stuff! :D
Hey Gabriel, can you add to your guide the Nightwish Holy Trinity just after Yours is an empty Hope? It would make this even more complete... and explain why those should be reacted last?
Anyway, it's a great guide
@@EddyParera123 The main purpose of the message is to inform the new reactors about the history of the band. To this one I have added a list of suggestions for the following reactions. This list has become longer and longer, making the message more and more difficult to read. If I add the suggested links along with the necessary recommendations it will become huge. That's why I'm reluctant. But you could add them as a reply to this message, or as a separate message.
I effing love it when you guys show up! Actually, I think Im a member of the Army now.
Nightwish army is coming 🧐🤘
Nightwish Army appeared between you typing IS and COMING lol
@@gmurph from 1998.... this was like 1006 time...or I lost a count... and I did...
I am totally sick of people trying to turn every reaction channel into a Nightwish channel. They are probably all the same as the rest of dumb down shed head people. Who actually believe that covid 19 is real. When it’s one of the most obvious hoax’s the world has ever seen.
@@shspurs1342 thank you for showing us all how stupid you are but we really do not care
i'm just gonna state this (in 2023): this was the very best performance ever! And will never be topped, EVER!!
Beyonce: Im the Queen.
Floor: Im the godess. Can you beat that?
As a fan, this is the most beautiful performance i've heard in nightwishs entire history yes even besting tarja and I am primarily a lover of nightwishes music during the tarja era. There is still no singer that I have heard manage to top Floor in any regard. Its insane. I hate how underappreciated singers like floor are (on a global scale). I dont know if "beautiful" is a feeling, but thats what I felt when I heard it. Just sheer ... out of body. It was nuts and is everytime. This is how music should be.
Beyoncé: What is a Goddess to a non-believer!?
**Ghost Love Score**
Floor: Do you believe now?
As a true Goddes, she would never say she is one.
There is only 1 rule in metal music. Never pause a song during a guitar solo!
tbf its not THAT of a solo. Even more for me it gets a bit cheesy after some many times listening to it xD (thus said, it's not bad. But, you know..^^)
@@Tearnofear It was never meant to be an impressive solo just a part of the song that fits nicely and appreciate that the whole band is executing the performance amazingly
@@allbies i know ;) You yourself wrote it's not meant to be a solo by all means. So there's that^^
For me it stays a part of the song i don't like that much.
o/
well... there are much worse solos to pause at... imagine doing that at the Heaven and Hell solo... or Child in Time (where the solo is half the song)
tbh if i have to choose between interupting floor or emppu.... yeah... easy choice!
I always think if someone is blown away by this song, then they won't believe it when they see more of this Wacken show. It's a masterclass of live performance 🤘
now THAT was basically the same reaction when I first heard this song! The look on your face during the last part brought tears to my eyes....lol....just like the song did the first time I heard it. This song is what made me a Nightwish fan!!!
Gota love those "I don't realy know what to expect" followed by "WTF just happened" reactions, they never get old. Nightwish been doing this for over 20 years
I always notice how just before the final note, as she prepares to go for it, Floor actually shudders. A shudder before the beautiful.
I have seen and heard this maybe 100 times, I still am almost pushed to having heart palpitations and on the verge of being brought to tears.
It is more enjoyable seeing a professional that knows what they are listening to pick up the subtle nuances, all the details, and seeing them almost grasping their chest, feeling like I do listening to Floor and these excellent musicians. .
This song absolutely brings out every emotion no matter how many times I hear it. And boy are there a lot in this song, rage sorrow longing hope despair and it rollercoasters through all of them every time. This is absolutely the song I would want played at my funeral and this wacken version is the one I want
I have watched this video probably a thousand times and every time, my eyes fill with tears. I don't know that there are any pieces of music in the modern era that match the mastery of this piece, from composition to instrumentation, to vocals, and performance. I swear, I would pay the full price of a concert ticket to see this one song performed live!
Q: What's the secret to kick-starting a music commentary channel on UA-cam?
A: Could we interest you in some Nightwish, Sir?
Beste Zangers 2019 a dutch TV show where prominent Dutch singers sing eachothers songs reinterpreted ,Floor sings : Shallow,Vilja Lied,Phantom of The Opera,Winner ,and much more
agree Nico
And to make it more interesting.. She sings it in Dutch, German, Spanish and English.... How do we call that 🤔🤔🤔🤔........... something like versatile😮
One of the best singer/ performer there is, and in this genre..GOAT 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hi. You haven't heard anything yet. Your just getting to know Floor's voice. Every time Floor sings it is always perfect.
Big Shout Out to the NW and Floor fanbase..
Today to the day 28 sept., exactly 10 years after the Big Denver debacle...
The final push that brought Floor together to her 'Brothers' ...
You just witnessed the first Song of NW that Floor worked over, expanding on Tuomass' genius scoring..
Mind you, in Wacken, 2013 she still was 'just', the relieve vocalist...
So much magic happended the last 10 Years, so much more to come..
Floor solo, Floor & Nightwish, all freaky musical geniuses at work & play ...
i was there back in the days. there were 83k people listening to the band. i cannot describe the atmosphere closely to what it was like. It was such a unbelievable experience. everyone should have seen this band live. its almost like a movie that covers every single deep feeling you carry in your heart. Thx for that great reaction, dear sir! you found a new subscriber!
Congratulation sir, you are by far the best reactor on the net! I am “addicted” to reaction vids and have viewed many sites. I say this because of your utmost respect for the artists musicality, vocals and production by not speaking over/excessive pauses at the wrong places or pontificating on your music expertise like so many of your fellow reactors, while they are performing! Spot on, thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I love to watch someone’s physical reactions as they travel through this song. It’s like magic.
Your alternating facial and body movements between delight, shock, awe, love, wonder, and amazement are the proper reaction to this bad and this song
Yes goosebumps are a frequent reaction to Floor. I have heard this many times and still get goosebumps.
I love the moments when reactors suddenly freeze, stop doing everything and just gaze at what is going on, just as if the brains get overwhelmed with information and emotion and needs to stop anything else because it cannot allow you to miss what just happens. 😄
Honestly man, yours was the most genuine reaction I've seen.......and I've seen a lot of reactions to this song. I watched the anticipation building on your face.....expecting something big to come and when it did, your entire body tensed up as your eyes grew simultaneously. Very genuine my friend. Thank you and well done 👏
No one can touch this song, ICONIC!
One floorgasm after the other one 😜💪💪💪
Next Floorgasm "Storytime" Wacken 2013
Storytime is my favorite after this, then Romanticide, but there is so, so many good to choose from.

Was here for the floorgasm
By far one of the BEST reactions I’ve seen to this performance.
I'm a reaction junkie, and more specifically, a Nightwish reaction junkie. I can't help but love watching other people experience what I experienced listening to these songs, and especially Ghost Love Score for the first time. This might be my favorite reaction. It's not just because I can see my own initial reaction plainly displayed on your face as the song progresses through "Wow, that's a really cool intro," to "Oh, nice little simultaneous key and time signature change, hang on, that time signature is odd, isn't it?..to...Oh, ok, settling into 4/4 to...oh nice shift...to...hey, who is that..to ...... ... .... ./... .... uh..... ... wh.... ... hnnnurrrrggg.... .... ... whhh.... AND now, to thinking, we had it after that, so whatever came after that interlude wasn't going to surprise us, right??? Right??? Bueller??? Yeah. I will now pause again while Floor punches us all in the teeth with that G#/A♭ 5. AAAAAnnnndddd.... I will now go back and listen to it again.
Lovely reaction. I especially liked the dropping jaw at the end. :)
This genre of music is called symphonic metal, is a mixture of metal and some symphonic elements, and Nightwish pretty much (co-)founded it back in the late nineties. They were founded in 1996 around a campfire in Finland and are going strong (in fact, stronger and ever stronger) until today; they just released a new album and were planning to be on tour now, but that has of course be postponed. The genre is popular in Europe and South America (more of an insider tip in North America, though), and Nightwish is its biggest band, selling millions of copies worldwide (their new album hit the charts at No. 1 in Germany, for example).
The band is Finnish (Finland's biggest musical export, in fact), the vocalist (their third and IMO best) is Dutch, a sixth member who you haven't seen yet is English. Personnel:
Floor Jansen - vocals (since 2012)
Tuomas Holopainen - keyboards, main songwriter, band founder and leader
Emppu Vuorinen - guitar
Marko Hietala - bass guitar, acoustic guitar, vocals
Jukka Nevalainen (on this recording, later replaced by Kai Hahto for health reasons) - drums
Troy Donockley (not on this song) - uilleann pipes, whistles, bouzouki, guitar, vocals
The band has had three vocalists: founding member Tarja Turunen (Finnish), who sang (now sings as a solo artist) in a dramatic operatic soprano style throughout, which was very unusual at the time combined with metal and helped spark the whole genre. She was fired in 2005 and replaced in 2006 by Anette Olzon (Swedish), who was more of pop rock singer and didn't really fit, especially live she couldn't keep up with singing Tarja's parts. She was fired mid-tour in 2012 (there's been some icky drama about both firings) - she has her own band now, The Dark Element - and replaced by Floor Jansen from the Netherlands, the vocalist in this recording.
Floor has been a professional metal singer since she joined her first band, After Forever, in 1997 at age 16, has several years of musical education (musical theater and a year of opera) under her belt and used to work as a vocal coach. Her first band After Forever split up in 2009, she formed her second band, ReVamp, which has two albums and existed until 2016, and doing everything herself down to management and booking, Floor had a severe burnout, from which she was still recovering when Nightwish called her to ask her if she could step in midtour. She hopped on a plane right away and had 48 hours before her first gig with the band, in which she had to learn the setlist. Along with Troy, she was made permanent in 2013. I guess you could tell, but she is a world-class singer, a lot more versatile still than what you have heard here: she can sing opera, sweet ballads, jazz, scream, growl (!), belt like hell...
Over the years, the band has pushed the boundaries of their style and was very versatile to start with. No two songs on an album really sound the same, especially in the last four albums; Tuomas really is an outstanding songwriter with an ear for good melodies and structure. They go from melancholic ballads to Celtic folk rock/metal to prog rock/metal epics like this one to outright thrash metal. They normally go heavier and faster than Ghost Love Score. I'll append a list of what I think about covers their spectrum (not completely, though, they are just too versatile) below.
When you react to them, you should do the live shows, especially since they have Floor, who elevates almost every song she does and makes it into a stellar performance. There are four great concerts with Floor to choose from: Wacken 2013 (this one), Wembley Arena 2015, Tampere 2015, Buenos Aires 2018. With Tarja, their first singer, who is very, very good too in her own way and worth checking out too, there's "From Wishes to Eternity" (2000) and "End of an Era" (2005), both filmed in Finland. "End of an Era" is the very last concert with Tarja, right after the show she was given an open letter by the other band members to tell her that she was fired. (They guys in the band have matured a bit since then, and the atmosphere in the band today is finally friendly, cooperative, and brotherly. Might have something to do with Floor and Troy too.)

Then there's the other two big epics: The Poet and the Pendulum, live Wembley 2015, and The Greatest Show On Earth (I prefer the Wembley version here, better intro, darker atmosphere, famous guest star at the end, but most fans want Tampere 2015), but I would put these off until later. They require some research as to lyrics and subject matter.
And then there's the new album entitled HUMAN. :||: NATURE., which has lyric videos on YT for every song except for the song Noise, which has a superb "video video". Also, you might check out Floor's performances on a 2019 Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers, which finally catapulted her to stardom in her home country and proved what an incredibly versatile and powerful singer she is. Look for YT user "jenniezelf", she has a lot of videos from the show with English subtitles.
So, if you decide to keep reacting to Nightwish, I think you have quite an enjoyable journey ahead.
The suggestion of the jenniezelf videos is a very good one. She does English translations of both before and after the songs that allow a bit of insight into the song choice and the response of the song focus.
I truly believe the version of "The Greatest Show on Earth" that most people prefer and the most EPIC version is the version from Tampere. Just saying, there's a very unique auditory surprise during this performance that you won't find in any of the other ones. PEACE!
@@krakon6565 I can do without the fireworks. The intro is better at Wembley and you see more of the screens.
@@oliphant2848 That's cool, you like what you like. I can respect that bro. I like spectacle, big shows and uniqueness. Take care.
This really is one of the most epic performances ever. The mighty Nightwish at their best form. They are under all the lucky stars with this. Floor controls the 82000+ crowd like palm of her hand. And the legendary crescendo at the end. Wow! Greetings from Finland!
No matter how many times i watch this, i always cry. Floor is just amazing, and the musicians the song itself, is one of my fav... Hello from Costa Rica 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷
12:46 that's the face of a man who just had a lifechanging experience.
Damn, ”redeem me into childhood, show me myself without a shell”. That line gets me.. I’ve heard this about a thousand times but it still makes me cry. Floor is out of this world amazing!
Great reaction... 3.42 into the video and already lost for words...
His brain is trying to process everything he sees and hears....
That's the magic off nightwish and floor.
Subscribed👌🤘🤘🤘🤘
Greatest performance I've ever seen. Every time. Hundreds of times now. Just. Amazing. Nice reaction.
12:21 Priceless! Admiration, disbelief, excitement, chills & goosebumps, heart skips a beat or two, then magic happens and at last wonderful floorgasm... 😁
All the episodes of Floor on Beste Zangers. Shows just how versatile she really is. Not many vocalists that can pick up any song from any genre and completely make it not only their own but even better than the original.
Welcome to the Nightwish Experience! NW Army checking in. Great reaction! Prediction: That was the longest you’ve sat with your mouth open & nothing coming out except CO2. 😁 Congrats on your first Floorgasm. 82,000 people there for this epic show! Floor has so many colors, tones, styles, range & dynamic ability & moves through all of them seamlessly at will. You should check out Floor’s performances on Beste Zangers. Vilja Lied & Phantom of the Opera among them. As for her native home, the Valkyrie Goddess of Nightwish, check out Romanticide next to see an extension of her awesome range in a bit heavier song. You’ll also meet Marco (bass). Live at Wacken 2013. Fans: How many live songs do you have that sound almost studio quality with awe inspiring performances? Nightwish: Yes. Enjoy!! 🔥🤙
There is something SO PURE about his reaction. I love it!
The most beautiful rabitt hole I have ever fallen into. You have just heard the unmatched Floor Jensen, you can choose nightwish songs or her solo on Beste zangers. You've barely tipped your toes into her talent. Keep digging it's an extremely rewarding journey.
Sorry mate , it is Floor Jansen .
This piece , yes, drove me to Floorgasm. It also made me fall HOPELESSLY in love with Jukka.
Have a listen to Shoemaker.
Yep Jukka is one of the best drummers, so passionate.
Just don't forget to breath man
It happened everytime I went in to edit
I just watched your newest nightwish reaction story time..thought I would comment here about your comment on how this song makes u feel after you seen it umpteen times..a good genuine reaction gives me the felling of seeing it again for the first time..its amazing how that works..good job helping me relive this experience..
Watching people who have never experienced Nightwish before react to this is never going to get old.
This is a musical masterpiece!
And the performance is a performance of a lifetime.
This is what magic is!
That's one of their "easier" songs, and just the bait🎣
If you thought that was good.....
So true, lure them in to the rabbit hole harr harr. :)
Propably the most honest reaction video I have ever seen. This guy really didn't know what was coming.
Your honest and pure reaction to this piece makes my entire week! Thank you for that.
Thanks for watching :)
That was one of the purest reactions I have seen and felt for this song, your mouth was never closed, you were exploring this with every part of your body and it was an honour to watch. I get it that you are a music teacher, but I adore when a person FEELS the emotion because it's so overwhelming it's beyond explanation. Excellent!
Thank you for your kinds words :)
I've watched probably 50+ reactions to this song and i still get massive chills on her last "for you". That performance just gives it to you every single time.
As already sayd on here floor jansen the leadsinger is the best( and most versatile) singer in the world, she is so amazing and cantouch you inside( thats a gift) she is dutch and her breakthrough in her own homecountry came in 2019 with her stunning performances at the dutch tv show beste zangers, she did it all..german,dutch,english even sang in spanish....absolute gems in this show are winner,shallow and the most epic and best version she did with henk poort ....phantom of the opera after ghost love score one of the most reacted videos on you tube
You had the same reaction I did and still do. I am here from Nightwish Iowa. I love how you found the cohesion between the parts, the beginning that pairs with the guitar, and then it all circles back in the end.
At the point you became speechless, is about the time I hold my breath and I just cry as the beautiful piece ends. It is pure magic.
Welcome to Nightwish! It is nice to meet you. For some reason, I am finding you late, and the rest of the troops have already hit your feed a year ahead of me.
hi, nice review: some Backround Infos regarding Floor:
In 1997, Floor Jansen, then 16 years old, joined the band After Forever. After Mark Jansen, one of the band's founders and not related, left the formation in 2002 to form the band Epica, she was solely responsible for the lyrics.
In 1999 she began studying at the Rock Academy in Tilburg and took singing lessons at the Fontys Conservatorium (both now part of the Fontys Hogeschool voor de Kunsten by the private university operator Fontys). In 2004 she successfully completed her studies at the academy and began part-time musical and opera studies at the conservatory.
Since then she has taught, among other things at the rock academy with her own course called "Wanna Be a Star?", Or in cooperation with a music school privately at home with singing lessons, band coaching and workshops.
Since joining Nightwish as a permanent member (2013), she has had to stop regular teaching due to time constraints.
Pure magic, every time i watch this performance it gets me, emotions..wet eyes.
Watching it on a big screen, using a good audioset, the lights turned off the experience that follows is the next best thing. Being there must have been an unforgetable experience.
I enjoyed watching your reaction. I also had the same reaction to this band with Floor as lead singer. They are so talented and her voice takes it to the next level of fantastic. Toumas is a gifted writer.
Ghost Love Score is an event. And we Nightwish fans track basically all music pros on youtube to see their reaction to the floorgasm. Some cry, some are scared, some feel ashamed they didnt heard it before but most of them come back to another song and another until they finish all Wacken 2013 concert at least.
I see the Nightwish Army is arriving and setting up camp. Enjoy the ride, my friend.;)
Nightwish - Poet and the Pendulum / Floor and Henk Version of Phantom of the Opera
yes please
I absolutely loved watching your reaction. I could see the joy that Floor brought to you just in your facial expressions. I experience music like this and even after watching people react to this song over 100 times, I still get chills when she sings at the end. You can't go wrong with anything from Wacken 2013. Ever Dream, Storytime, Romanticide, and Song of Myself are my other favourites from that concert.
Oh first time I've heard Floor hitting those high notes? Tears into my eyes. Couldn't even understand why, and how. It was the first time I have ever reacted like that, by just hearing vocal.. She's amazing, and it is not her full capacity yet! ;)
Do you have any more recommendations....LOL Teach you about to meet the Nightwish Army. Pretty sure you will get a request or fifty today. Subscriptions about to blow up.. Your " Spoiler Alert " warning was sweet.The song was so good i don't think you edited anything. Always enjoy someone having their first Floorgsm. Now a Spoiler Alert for you....Metal is not all she does. Enjoy !
One of the best floorgasms I ever saw!!! Keep it coming man. Hehehehe. 🤘
It makes you want to cry....every single damn time!! Talent of entire band is second to none! Floor is the PERFECT front person! I just discovered them this weekend and can’t stop watching and listening. AMAZING!!
Cinematic, epic, Pirates of the Caribbean.
Change of tempo.
Floor appears, starts to sing, MTR jaw drops ;-)
Oh what joy, the many voices of Floor.
The quiet bit, woodwind.
Jukka comes back to the drum kit,
Floor appears out of the deep.
Pyro.
Floor fire-breathing and conducting!
Bringing you to goosebump time.
Next Nightwish - Storytime from Wacken 2013!!!
What a sincere reaction (floorgasm), just lovely stuff!
This poor guy, I can tell by his reaction that nobody warned him xD did him dirty
So for heavier stuff I'd recommend Ghost River and Romaticide; for chills that will make you think you stuck your head in a freezer overnight try Shoemaker. Other than Shoemaker which is only like a month old, your best bet is to continue with the versions of songs from this specific concert.
Welcome to the Nightwish Army and prepare to be boarded
Shoemaker. I never thought there would be a NW song that will stand above Ghost Love Score for me.. Shoemaker does. They both made me weep. Absolutely brilliant!
I used to listening to her since 2001. She was in a band called After Forever for many years. I always loved her and I met her. She always be the best singer in symphonic metal for me.
This performance is taken from the Wacken Open Air metal festival in 2013.
82k metalheads watched in awe as Nightwish presented not only their new album Imagenarium, but to unforseen circumstance their new leadsinger that just 10 months before jumped onto the Nightwistrain in the middle of their worldtour. Take your pick from any song from that show. And have an emotional support beer at the ready. Because this was just an appetizer.
that was the most intense floorgasm i've seen so far hahahaha all songs of wacken 2013 will not dissapoint you....welcome to you're new obsession
Haha, your face was an open Floorgasm!
Actually, I think you might have set the Guinness Book of World Records for longest continuous Floorgasm. Bloody good show, mate! :P
My favorite reaction ever. To any song. Its beautiful to watch what I call the "awakening" in the first time when someone listen to Floor and Nightwish Masterpieces.
Thank you for this amazing reaction. I love seeing people feel the same way about music as I do. It's so emotional and loving 💕
Army in the house!!! Try Ever dream from Wacken 2013!!!
The whole concert is amazing. Storytime at the same gig is probably best next one to watch.
Welcome to the world of Nightwish. Any song from this concert is solid gold. I truly loved watching you get drawn in from the first sound wave. Dont stop now...it is only the beginning. Tomus (keyboards) is a master composer and writes all of the music words and composition. Marco (the bassist) also has an awesome voice and is so talented. Emppu (lead guitar) is a master of his craft. Jukka is no longer actually playing with the band any longer, but he manages the group. But I love watching him play, such a pleasure. And you have already experienced onr Floorgasm, she is I would say the absolute best female singer on the face of the earth today. Enjoy your journey
Watching people experience Ghost Love Score for the first time is always such a riot. Like yeah, it's my 100th?+ time listening to that exact recording and I still get goosebumps on every inch of my body. She Just Did That. Floor is possibly the most impressive performer I know.
haha. Awesome reaction. Seemed genuine. Thats exactly how I and alot of the fans feel everytime we listen to Nightwish. You will feel that way on every song. Make sure and react to the live performances suggested if you do any.
Nightwish Army is incoming!) Thank you for sharing your reaction and welcome to the world of Symphonic Metal! Subbed!) I guess what you felt at the end we are calling a Floorgasm. Yes, definitely a Floorgasm)
As I understood, you already saw Nightwish with Phantom Of The Opera with Tarja, but I'll put a brief band introduction here just in case ;)
And yes, every NW composition is genius, just like their composer, Tuomas.
Well, you've just witnessed Her Majesty Northern Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen (pronounced Yansen, she is Dutch). Floor indeed has classical background, rock academy behind, and used to be a vocal coach for a number of years. Floor is the most versatile and powerful female singer today and can sing anything from more pop-y style, classic opera, to metal screams and growls. Floor is a queen of singing emotions.
Floor joined Nightwish in the middle of their Imaginaerum world tour in late 2012 (which includes this show from August 2013). Previous singer, Anette Olzon (she's currently in Dark Element) left the band while they were touring, and there was no certainty what to do with all the upcoming shows. They called Floor (her previous band did tour with NW in the past, and they knew each other). Floor flew immediately to help them out and temporarily replace Anette for the rest of the world tour. She arrived two days before the next show, and she had only 48 hours to learn the entire setlist. And she did. There is official documentary about all that -- "PLEASE LEARN THE SETLIST IN 48 HOURS" ( ua-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/v-deo.html )
For Floor it was first really big gig with Nightwish, 82K people, at the time she was only for a few months with the band. After the world tour (in October 2013), they made Floor their official member. This song was performed at the end of 90min show, at the 1hr 10min mark.
Nightwish formed in '96 in Finland, initially with Tarja (Tar-ya) Turunen as a vocalist. She left the band in 2005, and Anette Olzon stepped in, until 2012.
The bassist with a cool beard is Marco, and he sings some parts too. He has his own solo project outside the Nightwish.
The mastermind behind 99% of lyrics and music is a keyboardist Tuomas.
Guitarist name is Emppu, and the drummer in this show is Jukka (Yukka), but later he was replaced by Kai Hahto because of health issues.
Flutes/uilleann pipes/guitar/vocals - Troy, he did not perform in this song.
Nightwish is better live, always, so if live performance is available, go for it. In their performances, they often using recorded backtrack of a classical orchestra for their songs.
They have very diverse music, from more light songs to epic scores like this, and to really heavy metal stuff.
For the next step, I can suggest listening to:
-- Storytime from the same Wacken 2013 live ( ua-cam.com/video/cAwtzi7Q3Bk/v-deo.html )
-- for move heavy: Ghost River, Song Of Myself, both from Wacken 2013 also ( ua-cam.com/video/cAwtzi7Q3Bk/v-deo.html ) ( ua-cam.com/video/cAwtzi7Q3Bk/v-deo.html )
-- If you want to explore more Floor versatility, check out her performances on a TV show Beste Zangers in 2019: (Lady Gaga's Shallow for ex.) ua-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/v-deo.html
You just starting your journey with Nightwish, and be prepared to be surprised (and sometimes shocked) time and time again! Their music is very emotional and diverse.
Btw, Nightwish released their new album in April -- Human. :||: Nature.
Greetings from Moscow and stay safe! ;) Looking forward to seeing more NW on your channel!
Thank you for all this info!! I will trust the Nightwish Army and always react to live :)
The happiness in your face listening to Nightwish, priceless 🤘🏼
I am glad that my first floorgasm was not recorded. Goosebumps from head to toe. The jaw dropped and the tears flowed uncontrollably. The floorgasm is inevitable even if I've seen the video 100 times. The more I see it, the sooner the effect starts.
Wow for a moment I was worried about you 😎👍. You surely got floored 💥💥💥. Issn't it amazing to listen to pure real live musical art whether it's the fantastic sound the band is creating or the vocal performance of Floor Jansen, The Godess.
I suggest 'Storytime' from Nightwish from the same concert LIve in Wacken 2013 as next song.
You have to watch "The Greatest Show On The Earth". Spectacular.
Overwhelmingly Amazingly Fantastic, is putting it mildly. You'll find out she is trained in everything.
Wow different I'm 64 and enjoyed this set.The two ladies going at it are unreal.Bravo to the drummer he is fantastic.
Buckle-up!! Your NW journey has begun, and it'll be an exhilarating ride!
So you like Eurovision. I'm happy to see that you like good music TOO. lol
That ending gives me chills every time I hear it. I don't know how many of these react videos I've seen now, but seeing their reactions to it amplifies it tenfold.
I would love to see everyone that watches this for the first time have this type of reaction which is as it should be!!!
