I discovered them a month ago at 70 years old and have not enjoyed a musical adventure as much as this before
Welcome in the Nightwish army
@@ronnwarmyrotterdam4433 👍This is an army I can appreciate and happily be considered a part of
I'm right there with you, JW. I'm 68 and have to say this rivals anything Led Zeppelin has ever done, and I just love LZ!
@@JWNanaimo Yeah man, I hear you and I am from Amsterdam 😎
Last winter I was 73 and discovered Nightwish. The most amazing music discovery since Pink Floyd.
Hello, mom & daughter [Generation Gap Reacts] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience.
About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
" Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] 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 [pronounced Tarr-ya] (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 "
For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I just posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community
🤘
Hi, Gabriel. The Dutch top 2000 is about to start.
We should start an all out offence to get more Nightwish songs into the 2000,like Song of Myself and How's the Heart ♥ (acoustic)etc.
We should definitely do it to honour the Goddess and her Brothers, Herald of Nightwish. 🤘😇🤩❤️🦾👍
Thank you Gabriel! That was a lot of amazing information and we’re excited to start our Nightwish journey! We will head to your UA-cam and soak up more information to help us along as we continue
@@generationgapreacts Thank you for your positive response. You understood very well the concept of this musical genre, which combines metal with orchestral and vocal elements of classical music. "Medieval" was the word mom was looking for :)
I hope you will continue with us this journey of exploring a quarter of a century of inspired music, composed and performed by Nightwish.
Greetings from Romania!
Although Floor has operatic training, I don't consider the little excerpts she sings with Nightwish to be operatic at all. She sings classical occasionally but definitely not operatic. She did some operatic in this song but only in parts like the single line before the growl, the staccato, and the single word before the belt at the end. She sings on mix mostly.
Great comment as always Gabriel.Greetings From Finland once again.
Floor Jansen Valkyrie Goddess and the best female singer in the world today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It NEVER gets old reliving this with someone hearing Nightwish for the first time. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, the creative genius that is Tuomas Holopainen, and of course, The Valkyrie Queen Herself, Nederlander soprano Floor Jansen.
yep, its never gets old ^^
I concur 😉
i also concur
It's always wonderful to see that first reaction to her voice… Valkyrie Goddess of Metal, indeed...
^This.
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!!! YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!
No one is ever ready for that note.. Love watching their faces as she blows them away.
Welcome to the very deep, Nightwish rabbit hole. The Nightwish Army will be arriving soon.
God help us
@@sean---the-other-one 😁😂🤣
Lol. "Soon".
It never takes an hour.
Nightwish Army German South-west sub division reporting in
Queen's Own Regiment, South East England Division, on parade!
I've been around for almost 8 decades and have had many 'favorite' singers, but they all pale in comparison to what Floor can do. Versatile, powerful and pitch perfect. She has more styles that you have yet to hear. And this is live with her voice in the forefront without any effects on it. Just pure talent. 😊🤘
Talent for sure, but on top of a lot of determination and hard work. She loves what she does, but from what I can glean from the interviews, she puts in the elbow grease too.
I'm just a young'un compared to you (only 69 lol) but I agree wholeheartedly. Floor is magical.
@@nightwishlover8913 You kids have very good taste. 😂🤣😂
You mentioned that Floor looks like a goddess or a warrior: She's a shade over 6 feet tall, and Nightwish fans call her the "Valkyrie Goddess." (Possibly because her voice steals people's souls.)
82,000+ in the palm of Floor's hand, and she wasn't even a member of the band at that time. She was brought in to help out when the band and their singer parted ways halfway through their American tour. It wasn't long after that she was invited to join as a permanent member.
Welcome my fellow brothers and sisters from The Nightwish Army lets send these gals on a ride with Nightwish that they will never forget
Floor is an amazing person. Her connection with the fans is second to none.
On the last leg of the South American tour this year, she found out that she had breast cancer. Got home home, got the tumor removed and was notified that she was cancer free. Then went and launched their European Tour 3 days after that. So within a month she kicks cancer to the curb then gets re-energized by her Nightwish brothers and fans.
So dedicated to her craft, family, and fans, she finds a way to balance it all.
And then went on to tour - and warm up Metallica - while very much pregnant. Until something like seventh month.
Two hours shows on her level are pretty damn heavy exercise - especially to your core muscles - even without having handful of kilos of foreign life inside your abdomen.
Wish I could discover and enjoy Nightwish together with my Mom.
I'm a 64 year old female, and i cannot ever get enough of nightwish ,Floor is awesome, the whole band is awesome, ( miss Marko) please react to more...live reactions please, they are so much better live...
The Nightwish hole is a deep and fulfilling one. You’ll love it! Welcome to the family!
The Sarah Brightman comparison is actually pretty accurate when Floor is using her more classical timbre. You should hear her do Phantom of the Opera. (Yes, you can find that online)
Nightwish came before Evanescence, they've been around since the mid-90s. They're not the first Symphonic Metal band, but they are probably the biggest, most popular one working.
On "kept changing," That was 17 key changes through 5 different keys you just witnessed. The composer, Tuomas, (the keyboardist) is a friggin genius.
Great reaction, it was fun to watch the two if you both get snared by our Valkyrie Goddess 😃 Welcome to the Nightwish Army
Symphonic metal, Therion is generally credited as being the first, while Nightwish is at the top of the genre as one of its most definitive and commercially successful acts.
Yeah, you got precursors to the style as early as some of the things Black Sabbath did in the 70s but it was really in the mid-late 90s it got properly going. Therion with the album Theli, 1996, watershed moment. Nightwish has also been around and doing their thing since about the same time (first album out in 1997). Source: Am old, have been listening to this stuff since the 90s.
Therion. Sabine Ebelsbacher. Within Temptation.
@@crhu319 1969 Deep Purple, Concerto for Group and Orchestra.
Taking from Hannu's comment, with the link to Deep Purple, take a listen to Rainbow's "Stargazer" with Ronnie James Dio on the vocals. It was astonishing in 1976 and it still remains so today. :)
@@paultimmins5809 These are mostly one-offs, pre-cursors, rather than all-ins from mid to late 90s and later. No one thinks of Metallica as symphonic metal after S&M, even though it's literally symphonic metal )))
Nightwish is a symphonic metal band. Ghost Love Score is Floor's favorite song and this was song #13 on a 15 song 1.5 hour set. Most fans will recommend the 2013 Wacken performance because the sound system and mix is superb at Wacken. Floor had only been with the NW a few months before the the Wacken, Germany festival and she was brought in as a temporary replacement for the previous lead singer, Annette, who had parted ways with the band during the U.S. leg of their world tour. For the moist part Floor was welcomed with open arms by most NW fans who liked her classical and metal style. If you watch some of the other Wacken songs you'll see that she is also the Queen of headbangers and often referred to as the Dutch Windmill. All the Wacken 2013 songs are fantastic and pretty common that new reactors get hooked and wind up going through. the entire Wacken setlist. NW is still very popular throughout Europe and Latin America. If you watch their Buenos Aires or Rio performances you's notice that she also sports some amazing tattoos.
Just to dot the i: Annette wasn't actually fired. As it became clear that situation became irreparable, they just split ways. Timing wise the band would have preferred Annette to continue until her pregnancy/maternity leave that was 2 months away. (Unlike the first singer Tarja, she was taken by supprise)
@@vogel2280 Thanks. I reworded.
@@vogel2280 yes she was, watch the docu..Please learn the playlist in 48 hours..

Floor Jansen (aka) the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal .
I was at this concert and i can tell you that every minute of it was magical. Little did i know this show would become so famous. Just amazing.
Those who hear Floor for the first time have Floorgasms. That voice is unbelievable and makes you set up and take notice. She is the Warrior Queen.
Floor Jansen is Dutch, over 6ft tall and can sing anything. She joined Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish in late 2012 mid-tour and learned the complete setlist in 2 days before performing in Seattle. This is ten months later, in front of 82,000, and she was superb at this concert singing 15 songs written for the previous two singers. The first,Tarja, was very operatic and the second, Anette, was quite pop. There is a UA-cam channel for Floor Jansen where she sings all kinds of covers from Disney, and various types of singers. Her solo version of Lady Gaga's Shallow is magnificent.
It´s so much fun seeing people discover the wonderful, magical, emotion evoking Nightwish. They aren´t like any other band, they are more than music... Great reaction :D
NightWish Army Wisconsin Chapter here, welcome to NightWish and our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen (pronounced Yahnsen). The GREATEST Symphonic Metal band on the Planet!
Two more souls snatched by the Valkyrie Goddess
You've only just begun ladies , oh there's so much more from Nightwish and Floor .
Welcome to the magical world of nightwish best live band on the planet imho. More please.
Nightwish Army New York here welcome 👋. Welcome to "symphonic metal" you'll get a plethora of information about this great band. When Gabriel posts he will include everything you need to know.
In the mean time, if you want to continue on, I think it's time for a little story, try " Storytime" from this same show.
That was the third last song of 15, one hour and a half and that's still her voice. This is our metal goddess Floor Jansen. The best singer in the world. She can sing anything, even phone books. No kidding, she's already done that for us.
This woman can sing anything she wants and it turns gold. Highest notes, deep crowling, anything and this in perfection.
Jukka (drummer) is our bull rider, pirate, showman.
Watch Nightwish's "Nemo" same concert. Jukka with stickswings all over the place.
Most bands have a songwriter....
Nightwish has a COMPOSER !!
So very nice to see you ladies back. For another north European influenced performance that really is different it would be great to see you react to ‘Eivør - The Last Kingdom: Main Theme (Live at Hammersmith Apollo)’. You will of course remember how impressed you both were with Eivør singing ‘Falling Free’. Well if you thought that was different you should hear this performance from London last year. To prepare you I will say Eivør does all the background singing and tribal vocalisations in the Netflix Viking drama series ‘The Last Kingdom’, so don’t expect very much conventional singing.
Good reaction, and congrats for finding Nightwish! 'Storytime' from the same concert next, please 🙂👍
The Nightwish army welcomes you with open arms.
Enjoy the upcoming journey.
This is called symphonic metal, and you just stumbled upon the best example of this style. I'a HUGE fan of theirs (my favourite band) and their music are pieces of art, IMHO.
Believe me, this is only an introduction to what this band and this Valkyrie can do. When you go through their composition, you'll just be a-m-a-z-e-d!
Please, continue on this band and listen to Gabriel. You won't regret it!
Goed zo ik stem namelijk ook in de top 2000.
Heel de army doet dat het word tijd dat Nightwish meer op de radio gedraaid word.
They are a Finnish Symphonic Metal group. Have had 3 female lead singers, this is their current lead, Floor Jansen from The Netherlands. There is a huge rabbit hole once you jump in. ❤️🤘🎸🎻🇦🇺
I'm one who suggested you react to this video. Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, they collaborate with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
The current Nightwish female vocalist, Floor Jansen, is the 3rd one. She's the most versatile of the three. That's why she, I think, is the best vocalist for Nightwish. Nightwish has many kinds of songs, metal, folky, Celtic, ballads, even one that can be called jazz. Tuomas Holopainen, the band founder, leader, composer, lyricist, writes wast majority of Nightwish songs.
The original female vocalist, Tarja Turunen, 1996-2005, had a very operatic style, the 2nd Anette Olzon, 2007-2012, had poppish/rock style, and Floor, from 2012 on, can sing every style from operatic to growling.
I hope you would react to Nightwish rendition of "THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA",
2005 End of an Era DVD.
It was Tarja's last concert with Nightwish, she did't know that, the rest of the band did. Anyway, her voice is perfect for this song, the role of Christine. So is Marko's, (Marko Hietala, the bassist, 2001- 2021), voice for the role of the Phantom!
About headbanging. Floor's headbanging is called windmilling, because she 's Dutch.
On the video you just see she did not really windmill, it was more like headbanging. Wait until you see Nightwish - 7 DAYS TO THE WOLVES Wembley 2015 video. Floor windmills about half a minute straight, Tuomas on keys, windmills too while playing.
I hope, and believe, you'll react to more Nightwish. As many song as possible and a bit later the other two big ones:
THE POET AND THE PENDULUM Wembley 2015,
THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Tampere 2015
(You just reacted to one of the three big ones, GHOST LOVE SCORE Wacken 2013. The Buenos Aires 2012 version is not bad either. Check it out, it's more intimate.)
Greetings from Helsinki Finland!
Thank you for suggesting Nightwish Risto! We really enjoyed it! “Windmilling” is a cool technique. That makes a lot of sense, it was modified head banging. Love it!
I concur saving TPaTP and TGSoE for much later.
@@generationgapreacts Do „Storytime“ (same concert: Wacken 2013) and you know what’s windmilling really means - here in Ghost Love Score it was headbanging… ‼️🏆👍
good morning... just wake up after an awesome Nightwish show yesterday 🥱🤘🥰 Ghost Love Scrore was also on the setlist yesterday- still awesome after do many years... Floor sings it a bit different today but still awesome
Just seen them live at Birmingham. What an experience. Epic.
She has many names but she is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇😇😇, Vocal Sorceress, Siren,
Soprano Goddess, Dark Galadriel etc etc.
Hail Nightwish ❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘
This was one of the most epic concerts ever.....now you only have 14 more songs to react to from this concert. Every song is a masterpiece!! Floor is just amazing as is the entire band.
Ladies, I saw Nightwish live last monday November 28th in Amsterdam🇵🇾. It was mindblowing. This song was at the end of the concert and was just as good as the first. This band IS WORLDCLASS 😍
Hi lovely ladies, Michael from Australia here. I am so glad you watched this amazing band. They are not very well known in Australia. I found them many years ago and have loved them for a long time. If you stick with Gabriel's format, you will discover how amazing they are. The band members are some of the greatest performers on the planet. Hands down. Enjoy.
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
of her vocals.
We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.
ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready!

Nightwish Army South Germany Division here
Hello Mom and Daughter (Generation Gap Reacts) ...Our Boss, Commander-in-Chief and General of the Nightwish Army Gabriel Bardac has already told you the most important things.
It only remains for me to say a warm welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and at the same time welcome as a new recruits to the ranks of the Nightwish Army.
You've just seen and heard her, who is named by her fans worldwide in the sum of her honorifics in hundreds of React videos:
This is Our Majesty Floor Jansen, First of her Name, Goddess of the Valkyrs, Highly Queen of the Vikings, THE Lady of Nightwish, the House Band of the Gods of Asgard, Chosen Ones of Odin ,Protector of our Metal Realm
Long may she reign
She raises her hand and commands an 80k+ crowd with her incredible presence and power. Just with a wave of her hand.
A member of the Nightwish Army once said: The old gods of Asgard sent Floor Jansen down from the heavenly heights as their gift to Nightwish. They sent them armed with a sword in one hand and a microphone in the other.
And yes, I personally believe that's how it happened.
There is nothing more to say about this
Greetings from Germany
the lady
P.S.: Another Videos for you:
Epica feat. Floor Jansen - Sancta Terra
Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom of the Opera from the Netherland TV-Series "Best Zangers" from 2019
And another tip: If you're planning on "The Greatest Show on Earth", please show the lyrics to it. In both versions of this masterpiece, that of London and that of Tampere, there are text passages that are a bit too quiet and get lost in the music. These are the lyrics spoken by Richard Dawkins.
And both versions differ significantly in part 1 and 3. If I were you, I would prefer the London version at Wembley Stadium.
The same goes for "The Poet and the Pendulum" as far as the overlaying of the lyrics goes. Especially here it is really important to follow the lyrics.
This video is brought to you by the phrase "I was not expecting that." :)
Floor Jansen - Mama (Beste Zangers) you will love it.
despite of all comments. Tonight I still got tears after hundred times hearing this song. What an epic band.
Liked this. Be aware that you hardly scratched the surface of Nightwish. You will be amazed sooooo many times. I promise.
Nightwish Army UK popping in for a great reaction. Younger generation i think im in love :)
Hehe thanks!!
Thank you mom and daughter, i really like that reaction👍 i hope you and mom react more nw.
You should react to Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac. She passed away yesterday. A few of the big Fleetwood Mac hit songs she wrote or co-wrote and sang lead on, "Songbird", "Say You Love Me", "You Make Loving Fun", "Over My Head", "Everywhere"...
Definitely! She was a great force in the group as a singer and songwriter. Fantastic songs! "Songbird" is her masterpiece! But any of those hits you listed would be _awesome_ to react to!!
We are so sad! We will have some tributes songs for her next week
Christine was a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice and a beautiful soul! RIP
They run in a lane of their own.Nightwish road trip pack a lot of snacks!!
Nightwish Army Manila Appreciates
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. Her name is Floor Jansen, she is Dutch and the 3rd and current female lead singer.
The band is from Finland. The mastermind is keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen. He writes 90-95% of the songs ,including the orchestral backing track recorded with the London Philharmonic.
See the comment from Gabriel Bardac for more info and links to a lot of their songs.
You mentioned Sarah Brightman. Sarah played Christine in the Phantom of the Opera. NIghtwish has covered that song, with original lead singer Tarja Turunen and the bassist seen here, Marko Hietala. (see the live version from the 2005 Helsinki show, End of an Era DVD)
Floor has performed Phantom with Henk Poort(Dutch Phantom). First at the 2019 Dutch TV show Beste Zengers and at her solo 2021 Amsterdam show. And just last weekend for the first time, Floor and Henk sang it with Nightwish in concert (only cellphone videos so far)
I found them on reactions a year ago.instantly added to my playlist. Now they are my playlist.
Thank you Mother and Daughter reaction❤ Loved your reaction ❤Nightwish is amazing ❤ Nightwish Army, South Africa 😆
Angel Siren Goddess Warrior Queen. Yup that's Floor ❤
Good, honest reaction to one of the best live bands around. That was the 12or 13 of 15 numbers played that night in front of about…. 80,000 crazy night wish fans. Welcome to the Nightwish army!!!!
Do check out Floor's rendition of Shallow from the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers (Best Singers) it is amazing. For Nightwish From the same Wacken 2013 Concert watch Everdream and Storytime. For their metal sound A Song for Myself and Romanticide again form Wacken 2013. These will triple your viewer numbers as well. Floor just had surgery for breast cancer but is already back on tour.
17min52seg; "FLOORGASM" archived for the "daughter", no doubt!!! Your reaction was gteat and genuine, thanks!!!😉🤘🇦🇷
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty:
What you should do:
Listen to Gabriel.
He knows.
Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured two more souls….:-)
It never gets old to see people freeze when our Queen starts to sing….
About Ghost Love Score:
Standing solid as a World Pillar around which the planet revolves, Floor hits "The Note," the crowd loses their shit, the band tears a hole in the fabric of Space-Time, and 82,000 people will never, ever be the same again.
I am really looking forward to your next Nightwish Reaction - Maybe you should do "Storytime" from Wacken 2013 next to see the next facette of this amazing Band with the most versatile Vocalist of our time....
Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
Aloha! yes, Repo, Genetic Opera.. and Miss Sara and her amazing voice. This is the first time I have ever known anyone that saw that movie! Floor is amazing... I have been Nightwish fan for a decade or more... I love them...
Thank you for your reaction video!
Mr Ed
She is often called the Valkyrie Goddess
Greetings Generation Gap Reacts! Nightwish Army Nebraska division checking in. I have enjoyed watching your reaction to Nightwish and our Goddess Floor. It was great to see you experience your first Floorgasm. I look forward to seeing more Nightwish reactions from you. Follow the wealth of information that Gabriel left for you and you will not go wrong. Expect to be surprised each time you listen to Nightwish. My favorite song changes and is usually the one I just listened to.
I have always said that Floor is a Goddess because other singers may be good and sound great, but they still only sing to your ears while Floor sings to your soul. You feel everything she sings deep and it can make you emotional even if you aren't normally an emotional person. She is simply stunning in so many ways.
Nightwish Army UK reporting in. Loved your reaction, many, many thanks for the upload. Expect more warriors to show up and Gabriel will be here soon. Please delve deeper into the quintessential Symphonic Metal band, you will NOT be disappointed with more Nightwish and Floor Jansen. Our Valkyrie Warrior Queen, sent down by the gods to prepare the worthy for Valhalla. Have a great evening GGR.
2 more souls taken ;¬)
Greetings from Nightwish Army, Palm Springs, CA! This epic song...is just an appetizer..
You've opened up pandora's box now. Gabriel will jump in at some point soon to help guide you through a great Nightwish experience. For me, as great as every single member of the band is it's Floor Jansen (their current singer) that brings it all together. In my humble opinion she is the greatest female vocalist in the world today. Check our her solo work as well!
Thanks guys for that positive reaction, & welcome to Nightwish, which is symphonic metal. You really are starting a beautiful ride,
& this is only the tip of the iceberg with music you have never heard before, & daughter, I think the phrase you were searching for
maybe "Sea shanty music ", anyhow enjoy this ride, & may I recommend Gabriel & his advice..Take care..
Yes “sea shanty” is perfectly said!
Welcome to the Army, ladies. :)
Thanks again, Gabriel. 🤘
Nightwish Army Turku Finland reporting in. Soon enough you will be looking for tickets to their show. I promise you that :)
I had the great experience of seeing Nightwish at Wembley and they were fantastic, Floor Jansen is unbelivable her stage presence is second to none, please play more Nightwish ( while your lips are still red )
Nightwish Army, Manitoba, Canada division reporting in. I love so very much to see people's proverbial socks blown off the first (and fiftieth) time they hear Nightwish. All their songs are DIFFERENT. You'll catch certain themes that reappear, but they are all unique.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish.With this song you were able to hear the grandmasters of symphonic metal for the first time.I would like to warn you right at the beginning of your Nightwish journey - ALWAYS expect the unexpected! With Floor Jansen, Nightwish has the most versatile singer in the world in its ranks, whose range extends over 3 octaves and her high note is a D6.She sings every genre to perfection and knows how to inspire every audience.With a height of 6 feet and her strong charisma, she has earned the title Goddess quite rightly.What makes this band so special is that they are not only friends but siblings. Even if they are not related to each other.If I may give you a recommendation, please follow Gabriel's list and you will get to know a world that you can not even begin to imagine.Thank you for taking the time to reacting to this incredible band. Of course, I also left you a subscription. Best regards,Kelsea
You just stumbled upon an entire new genre of music that's very popular throughout Europe and South America, but for some behind-the-scenes industry politics reasons doesn't really get traction in the US.
Symphonic metal and its sister subgenre, Gothic Symphonic metal, usually feature classically trained or operatic vocals and orchestral backing (usually in the form of pre-recorded backing tracks, as it's hard to tour with a full orchestra in tow).
So far, the only band from this genre to really break into US charts is gothic metal band Evanescence, but the Nightwish Army here is introducing the band to everybody they meet. And the Nightwish rabbit hole leads to plenty more amazing bands you've never heard of. Kamelot, Within Temptation, Visions Of Atlantis, Xandria, After Forever, Blackbriar, Sirenia, Ayreon...just to name a few.
After Nightwish's Storytime from this same Wacken 2013 festival, I suggest dipping into Gothic Symphonic band Epica - with a guest appearance by Nightwish's Floor Jansen 😉 Epica's Simone Simons is Floor's best friend, and very nearly as good a singer.
Epica - Sancta Terra ft Floor Jansen (Live Retrospect Show)

I love how others have picked up on how this performance gives you the feel of an epic movie. You also mentioned a pirate feel and yes, at one point it does give me Pirates of The Caribbean vibes. This song, this performance, is an adventure that takes you trough different times and places. It is simply amazing, and you did a wonderful job reacting to it and mentioning these all these different tidbits you noticed.
Hello Mom & Daughter, welcome to the Nightwish Family. Great reaction. Stay on this NW path. Nightwish never disappoint. Gabriel gave you great directions.Love to see your next reaction on Nightwish. Greatings from the Netherlands.
I was there.What a great fesitval and Nightwish put on a great show
Welcome to the Nightwish's rabbit hole! You've just opened the door of lyricism, poetry, literature, history and science accompanied with symphonic metal music. Awesome reaction and comments from both of you! Greetings from Nightwish's Army Department of Greece!
Ladies
As a member of Nightwish Army, welcome to Nightwish! This band started in 1999 with students studying music in Finland: Tuomas (keyboardist & original singer, Tarja). Tarja from 1999 to 2005 sang for the band until she was forced to leave the band. Bass player, Marko here, now retired from touring joined the band in 2002 and stayed until 2021. Guitarist Emppu along with Tuomas are longest served in the band. Tarja's replacement, Anette joined the band in 2007 after Tuomas put band on hiatus because he suffered depression from letting go Tarja. Fans blamed him for letting Tarja go. Then her replacement, Anette left the band in 2012. Band's current singer, Floor Jansen started out as their touring vocalist. Floor and band's multi-instrumentalist, Troy became full-time members.
Oh, forgotten about original drummer, Jukka shown here. Jukka retired from touring after he had trouble sleeping. But Jukka still with band working day to day operations. His replacement's name is Kai Hahto. Funny that Gen daughter stated that Floor has an operatic skill. Floor studied opera and other vocal skills. She is a vocal coach teaching others besides singing for Nightwish. Floor Jansen has her own UA-cam channel. She has videos on the channel including her analysis of her singing "Ghost Love Score".
Thank you MrTech! That’s great info on the group. We are excited to start listening to more music!
They started in 1996 😊👍

I really enjoyed your reaction. I was led to Nightwish via a reaction to Floor Jansen doing a cover of "Alone". I was captivated (I am a 73 year old male....ignore my moniker). Floor was so good on "Alone", I had to listen to more. Now I can't stop. She is a beautiful person (and more than a little intimidating!). That opinion is based on the interviews and shows I have watched her perform in.
To get a better idea of Floor's abilities/talent, search youtube for "Beste Zangers", then listen to the series of shows Floor appears in (2019 season). A really entertaining show, and it is astonishing to see Floor's versatility and talent. I cannot stop listening, and I love watching people react to her (and Nightwish....I didn't even know I liked metal!). She also has her own UA-cam channel.
A toe has been dipped into the incredibly deep Nightwish well! :) Really look forward to watching you experience the perfection of this band.
I wish I had a nickel every time a reactor’s mouth dropped open on that last note.
Welcome to Nightwish with Floor Jansen ( Yansen ) you have been Floored !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol 82,000 people at that concert >>>>>>>>>>> Nice reaction ........

Nightwish Army greets you..
For the Nightwish experience follow the list of Gabriel. Floor solo try the 'covers' of 'shallow' and 'phantom of the opera' from beste zangers (tv show).
Loved your reactions. You could visibly see your emotions as you fell in love with this band and track.
Tip ! Use Head Phones When Listening to NIGHTWISH .. YOU'L Hear More ..
very cool reatin,
greetings from the Nightwish Army from Germany :-)
Great reaction to this epic piece of music and hello from the Canadian branch of the Nightwish Army. General Gabrial should be along soon with all of the background info on the band and a long list of other Nightwish songs to check out. I discovered this band about 4 years ago and was blown away by them. I grew up in the 1970's listening to groups like Pink Floyd, Genesis, Led Zepplin, The Who, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Yes, Jethro Tull, Rush, Kansas, and many more. I started checking out reactors reacting to songs from the groups I knew so well, and I noticed that on these channels was requests for them to react to Ghost Love Score. One day I decided to watch one of these videos and the rest is history. Because of that I have discovered that there are many great groups like Nightwish, Epica, Ayreon, Wintersun, Kamelot and others that are producing music at a high level like back in the 70's. I am 62 years old and Nightwish has renewed my love of music again.

Nightwish really hits you in your heart.
And that's what makes this band so unique.
Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch.

I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion.
Watch out for the Nightwish Army.

Ahh, now you've been Floor'd. Haha, she has a ton of amazing videos. Everything she does HAS to be the live version.
