Another recruit to The Nightwish Army! 🤘They have a new album in the pipeline, so a tour is bound to happen - she actually joined them during the American leg of their 2012-13 world tour, after the previous vocalist left. She had to learn 15 songs in 48 hours! 😱 She's a vocal coach herself - you could probably guess, being one yourself. 😘
I think this is the first vocal coachs' reaction video that I stumbled over where the vocal coach doesn't stop the video at all and does the talking afterwards. Very good! I'll honor this with one of my very rare likes.
Keyboard player is the mastermind of the band. He writes everything including all classical arangements. Amazing band and talent. The poet and the pendulum Live from Wembley arena London should be next song up 😉
If I remember correctly Pip Williams also lends in a hand in the writing and the supervising of the orchestra arangements, esp during the album recording sessions.
@@zahrans Correct: My role with Nightwish is that of orchestral arranger and coordinator. I transcribe Tuomas’s ideas for the orchestra and choir and organize the London sessions, carefully liaising with Tuomas, the orchestral contractor (Isobel Griffiths), the studio, the conductor (James Shearman) and the music copyist/librarian (Richard Ihnatowicz). While I transcribe Tuomas’s parts for the arrangements, I have freedom to adapt and add my own ideas to the scores. I can make suggestions regarding the line-up and suggest possible changes.
Well, I can confirm: It is an experience like no other. I was there, and no, I wasn't 'this lady'. I was further at the back. Because, the peeps in the front rows have been camping at that stage since late morning. But at least I wasn't one of those who came running from the camping site shortly after that concert started (it's an open air festival in Germany, it had over 82,000 visitors). During this song, I was standing there, staring at the screen and crying tears of joy.
Finally someone who actually sits quiet through the whole song and save everything for after the video. Breaking the tradition! Well done 👏 Edit: Not what you think I meant by it. I understand pausing for copyright reasons but if you're able to go through it with as little interruption as possible it's not only nicer for the viewer but also a better listening experience for the reactor and get it all out afterward and go back if needed.
@@kingjulian904 - Someone I saw right before watching this video. Stuck in my mind because they watched the entire video before commenting. I respect this UA-camr enough to not post a link to another "competitor", but if you search "grymm gaming nightwish" it'll be the first link (And the second link is a compilation of a bunch of reactions, part of a series showcasing "floorgasms". It's a great place to find reactions to watch!)
Really enjoy the way you critique the song. Adding the cuts to the parts of the video you're commenting on are very helpful to place it in context, but you waited to the end to provide the commentary and not interrupt the flow of the performance. Great job, very well put together.
Really loved that you paid the tribute to the composition itself because not many people talk about it, hope we'll see more NW videos from you in the future!
This has got to be the most reacted song on UA-cam, and rightly so , it has to be one of the greatest vocal performances ever, the Floorgasm G# at the end is just awesome.
The greatest band in the world with the greatest singer! Floor can do it all metal, rock, operatic, angelic, growling, and all with such ease. Plus she has such stage presence and has the crowd eating out of her hands. She's a goddess and I'm so happy Nightwish have her! 🤘
Your higher then snoop if you believe this band is the greatest. Laughable! I'll give you 2 bands off the top of my head that are lightyears ahead of nightwish, Pearl Jam and Tool. I could rattle off another 20 bands but these two are more the sufficient to make my point. I would love to hear your rebuttal and try to prove me incorrect. Next time Before you shoot off your mouth making extraordinary claims, Dont! But then again judging by the photo and your name you may just be the kid who rode the short bus to school every day. So I went easy on you. Nightwish fans for obvious reasons aren't the best judges when it comes to music. If you would like a breakdown of why this is fact and not just personl preference please let me know.
I cant decide what floor is angel or devil im so obsessed that im start to think that she is pure evil..... There is no way that something pull me into it that hard straaaange
@@scottballinger40 Comeon, get off your high horse. That's a ridiculous comment and not very "mature", since that's what you were pointing out. They were just showing how they Nightwish, nothing more. Those two bands you quoted are of course excellent and amazing, but it's hard to compare them to nightwish, or even these two together. Relax and enjoy seeing people who are such fans of the bands they love.
Tuomas Holopainen (keyboardist) is the band's primary creator, composer and lyricist. He uses 3 (sometimes 4) keyboards -- KORG Karma, Triton, N364 and Kronos. The "film scorey" part was actually him performing a solo. This is one of their best concerts (please react to any song from this show, such as Romanticide) but I wish they put more cameras on the keyboards. THANK YOU for watching the entire performance and reserving your thoughts until the end. This was a joy to watch. Thank you!
What?! I love knowing that that was a solo! YES! Now I've got to go back and listen to it again. More cameras on the keyboards! Equal rights for keyboards! I'm married to a professional keyboard player and we ALWAYS think they need to pay more attention to the keyboard player. ESPECIALLY if said keyboard player is the creator, composer, and lyricist. 😂 Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave this wonderful comment. I loved hearing from you. 😍
Oh man, speaking of Keyboardists, another amazing metal band you should watch is Epica, their live performance of Consign to Oblivion at the Zenith has a keyboard cam and if you've ever wanted to see a keyboardist scurry all over the place because someone thought it was a good idea to put his instrument on a swivel with wheels, it's the performance for you
@@TheVoiceLoveCo If you love the keyboard and the arrangements, then you should check out 'The greatest show on earth' live at Tampere. It probably is exatcly what the name suggests. For context, that song is about the evolution of the earth and the evolution of mankind. It has a great message, even in the credits.
I wouldn't say that it is a solo. Tuomas leaves the stage at that part. It is a pre-recording by London Symphony Orchestra that plays also on threir albums.
This may be the best reaction- I have ever seen to this song and I've seen hundreds.. What a joy to watch her response.. I hope she does more Nightwish...
You’ve caught on to exactly what Nightwish is about: top notch musicianship, serious composing skills, big, bombastic orchestral soundscapes, impossibly skilled vocalists all put together in a package to pick you up and carry you away. Seeing them live really is a life experience.
Should check out Poet And The Pendulum (Live Wembley) and The Greatest Show On Earth (Live Tampere) By Nightwish, those are more epic songs than Ghost Love Score. Great vocals there too. Poet might have some copyright problems but Greatest show doesen't have any.
@@VerbalDroppings i always do. Its a bloody nightmare if im driving and that comes on, Its stupid. A 44 year old man balling like a baby because the lyrics are so moving!
I agree. How could I have ever missed this heavenly sound. I found this song 7 days ago. Must have listened to it 150 time, One day I looped it for my whole shift at work. A 10 hour day.
Love this type of reaction sitting and listening all the way through. Nothing more infuriating when someone not only stops it 73837336 times but always stops it just before a drop or huge moment in the song lol.
I absolutely LOVE the way you made this video. First to enjoy the video and you too enjoying it and then make the breakdown with clips of the video. Excellent! Next poet and the pendulum!
Welcome to the Nightwish nation... Marco is amazing to listen to! In addition to "The Islander", you should listen to him sing "High Hopes" from the "End of an Era" concert... absolute gold. (He has also just released a solo alum "Mustan Sydämen Rovio" from which the first single is "Isäni ääni". He is also the lead of a metal band Tarot with his brother... again very different.)
I really appreciate the fact that you waited till the end of the video to do commenting. I mean all reactors have their own style or way of doing things but the way you do it is what i prefer. Thank you for the great reaction.
Your smile was evident the whole video, but man did it grow at the end when Floor let out those last few notes, you felt what lots of people feel when they see and hear that. I appreciate how you listened to the whole song with no interruptions, that's the way to experience a song.
I love how you don't pause it every 5 seconds and give your opinion. Even though it's clear you want to say something it's fantastic seeing a reactor just enjoying the music.
One of the best concert ever, PERIOD. Anything off this Wacken, 2013 set list will be amazing to react to. Beware though, Nightwish switches back and forth from Symphonic Metal to Ballads, Heavy Metal, Folk Metal, Hard Rock and even some Pop, which is only possible because Tuomas the keyboardist who writes, arranges and blends most of Nightwish's songs is a genius and he has Floor now who can sing anything he creates. She has done the ballads, the duets, the heavy metal, the symphonic metal, the folk metal, bluesy jazz and even pop. You are also correct about this band, you experience them not merely listen to them which is why you always go with a LIVE performance if available as Floor's power, range and stage presence along with the crowd make for a fantastic experience. Great reaction and waiting to the end was a very nice and different experience which made your reaction and evaluation even better.
I so love that you just watched the whole song without any interruption, just enjoying what you see and stating your opinion afterwards instead of pausing the video, talking over it and showing that you can hit those notes as well as some other vocal coaches are doing. Well done... Thumbs up 🤗
Floor is classically trained at the University level, and is a voice teacher and vocal coach in her own right....by the way, she's 6-1 in bare feet, 6-5 in those high-heeled boots
Roy Smothers, You are right she is also classical trained. But this was for 1 year and then she decides to go the last 3 years for the Rock/Metal side of the training. This was both on the Rock Academy in Tilburg (Netherlands). She explains this in a Dutch TV show, Reunion where her classmates where also present. The Classical training she did was because she loved to sing the high notes and she was not sure what style she wants. Her range is now from B3 to Fe6. I did see this show ( because I'm Dutch ).
Magnificent Regarding the comments of the reviewer. I was very appreciative that you didn't interrupt the music, like so many others. Most of the time as soon as the song is over I stop listening to what is being said. But with yours I was will to hear what you had to say after. I will look for more of your reviews because of that. Thank You
Very well done video. Also the short clips towards the end to show what part you were discribing. I don't see many peole do that. Was cool. Keep it up, have fun and stay healthy.
Not sure if you noticed this or not, but you've smiled through the entire song. That's how you know someone actually enjoys something and you have a plethora of music waiting to be discovered. The best music isn't found on popular media, and when you have a crowd like that, coming to your show with no radio play, no mentions on any popular media or publications, you're doing something right.
The Voice Love Co. Thank you for the reply, If you'd like to dive a little further near to the genre. Symphony X - When All is Lost, may be something you'd be able to enjoy as well on your own time or if you'd like to do a reaction to it as well that would be fun to watch. Russell Allen is the singer from this group and has a great range of vocal capability, nowhere near Floor, but the musicianship behind him is top notch as well. It may be a bit heavier than Nightwish, but I think you may enjoy it as well. I hope you have a wonderful journey into undiscovered music.
That's what makes a true singer and band. You feel it more than hear it. That's something that can't be taught. Came for the song Staid for the reaction An the floorgasm.
I like the way you handle this. First the complete song followed by the analysis where you show a piece of the video which your comments were referring too. Well done.
Thanks, it's always enjoyable to watch a reaction to Nightwish, especially with Floor Jansen on lead female vocals. Their principal composer Tuomas Holopainen (the keyboardist) is a wizard in songwriting, There's so much talent in this band, and Floor as a vocalist is out of this world, period.
Symphonic metal really is a gem in the music world. It popped up in the 90's with bands like Nightwish, because Metal music had become more widespread in the 80's, but then in Finland and other parts of Europe the people who got into it were classically educated musicians, so it very rapidly mixed together with classical and folk music. That's also why it's such a popular genre in Finland, people just take the drums and the guitars and combine them with different styles. Nightwish really hit the jackpot with getting Floor as their singer, she is such an amazing singer. She can match her voice to anything in the music, and the people in this band can do _a lot_ with the music.
Wonderful reaction, check out Santa Terra by epica featuring Floor live at retrospect for another wonderful symphonic metal band. That concert has a full orchestra and choir backing 2 of the best female vocalists alive.
Excellent reaction. What I loved about this reaction is unlike other voice coaches, you didn’t stop the video to comment. You watched and enjoyed the performance then talked after it was over
Hello. Since this is your first reaction to Nightwish. I will give you a short history speech, "The Ann Waychoff" speech (a short / concentrated history of the band): Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a female fronted symphonic metal band. 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 still is. 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 saw 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 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 I would like to recommend "Yours Is An Empty Hope" ua-cam.com/video/XtXqUNB8zrU/v-deo.html Thank you.
@@larrysmith2638 Ann is recovering, at home. The last info I got is from GoFundMe, updated 8 days ago www.gofundme.com/annwaychoff "I wanted to share Jim’s (Ann's husband) latest update on Ann: She's doing better. She still can't sit up for any period of time, but I want her to try getting on her computer this week if for only short periods of time. She did get the package (sent by a fellow Nightwish fan) and of course she cried. Hopefully you'll be seeing her on all her sites in the very near future. Thanks for checking in."
I've watched this performance literally dozens of times and it always brings tears. Thanks for giving your reaction and appreciating the entire performance.
Christi, you did a magnificent job in recapping and analyzing this song by Nightwish!!! You allowed the entire song to play through without stopping, restarting, and interrupting this song!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!! The Very Best to you now and into the future!!! I AM A HUGE FAN!!!!!
Nightwish & Floor Jansen are a match made in heaven..Tuomas Holopainen (the keyboard player) is a genius and main songwriter, composer. I can’t explain how amazing this band is...pure class.
I love your happy and vibrant positivity when it comes to these reviews. When I see you have a new one I get so excited. You bring a little light to the crazy out there. Well done friend.
I loved how you just watched the performance without interruptions and then you talked about it and showed the clips. That is the best format imho. Interrupting, or talking on top of the performance is wrong , because this way you lose parts that may be important, and also lose the immersion into the song. Well done! Subscribed! Oh! And long live NIGHTWISH! I 'd love to see more reactions from you.
The music is called symphonic metal and i very populair in Europe and South America. The band is from Finland and founded 1996 . So far the band has had 3 vocalists 1 Tarja Turunen (Finish) pure opera voice also very good live. (until 2005) 2 Anette Olzon (Schwedish) more pop style. fine in the studio but not good live. (until 2012) 3 Floor Jansen* (Dutch) (current) . * She is the vocalist you saw in this clip. She has a classical vocal background education and can sing any style she likes from jazz to opera high to growling low. Believe me when i tell you you have not even scratched the surface yet of what she capable of. Band members Tuomas Holopainen (The keyboard player and creative mind behind the band. He writes about 95% of the music and lyrics) Marco Hietela (the viking with the long beard (Bass and vocals) Jukka "Julius" Nevalainen (The drummer) Erno "Emppu" Vuorinen (the hobbit like guitar player) Troy Donockley ( a person who did not play on this song but is a multi instrumentalist from the UK) The clip was shot a few months after Floor jointed the band right in the middle of their US leg of the world tour. They asked her to join after tensions between the previous (Anette) vocalist and the rest of the band had rissen so high that they fired her. With close to a year still to go to complete the tour, and their next concert planned 2 day later they, needed a replacement fast. They called Floor because she had toured with them when she was part of the support bands"After Forever" and later "Revamp" on several occasions and they were quiet impressed by her vocals (who would not be?). She only had 2 days, including a flight from the Netherlands to the US, to learn the setlist and only had one rehearsal with the band a couple of hours before her first show and nailed it. Since they were making a documentary about the worldtour a lot of what happened was recorded. The documentary is called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" (ua-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/v-deo.html ) As a next song to take a look at i would recommend their masterpiece "The poet and the pendulum" live at Wembley. Before you take a look at it i would recommend to take a look at the backstory of this song. This will make you appreciate it much more. here is the link ua-cam.com/video/gbn9GczYBkw/v-deo.html BTW that last note she just sang? Nightwish fan created a whole new word for when she does something impressive like that. We call it a Floorgasm. Welcome to the club and boy are you going to receive a lot of traffic on your channel. ;-)
If you reacts to more Nightwish (which I hope you will), please use the live versions over the recorded, and you really can't go wrong with Wachen 2013, Wembley Arena 2015 and Tampere 2015.
One thing of note... this song is recorded over an hour into that concert... it's near the end of their set... so this is after they've been playing at this level for over an hour. Amazing.
Great reaction and break down! Was refreshing to see a vocal coach actually listen to the entire song without continuous pauses...saving all thoughts and comments until after the song was finished!
The orchestral part is pre-recorded and this was actually recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra who also did Lord Of The Rings and many other beautiful music. So it's not just the keyboards :)
As i have seen Nightwish live 3 times (all with Floor as singer), it is a complete outer body experience, and the fan are amazing to hang out with while enjoying the show.
Wishing the Viking Queen a speedy recovery ... this performance is by far one of the top live performances ever ... the band was out of this world, and she delivered powerfully and gorgeously with a voice that can take troops to battle like a General!
Floorgasm achieved! Flawless, Floorful performance!!! Nightwish since 1996! React to her version of "Alone", since you mentioned Heart!? Big lungs - 6ft 1 in tall!!!
What a great reaction Christi. I've seen many, but this is the first for a vocal reaction that didn't stop the video or comment throughout the song. I also really liked when you would comment about a certain part or aspect of Floor's voice you followed it with a video clip. I really enjoyed your comments and reactions. May I also add that you are quite beautiful with a lovely smile. I look forward to you reacting to other Nightwish songs and any from this 2013 Wacken open air concert would be great. Floor has such a beautiful powerful voice with such dynamic range that she has become my all time favorite singer. When I first saw this video of Floor's vocals I experienced goosebumps, chills, hair standing on end and just in awe of her voice. She even moved me to tears in a good way. Thank you Christi.
I was also grateful that you complimented the entire band on their musicianship. They truly are very talented musicians that put on a great performance. When you mentioned exploring more symphonic bands, I really don't know how many other symphonic metal bands there are, but Nightwish is my band of choice. In fact Nightwish is currently the band I would most like to see live. They will be touring in 2020 and if there are any in the USA, I most certainly will be making an effort to see them.

Probably not common because it’s VOICE coach reacts to vocals. But, a nice addition nonetheless.

This may be the best reaction- I have ever seen to this song and I've seen hundreds.. What a joy to watch her response.. I hope she does more Nightwish...
You’ve caught on to exactly what Nightwish is about: top notch musicianship, serious composing skills, big, bombastic orchestral soundscapes, impossibly skilled vocalists all put together in a package to pick you up and carry you away. Seeing them live really is a life experience.
Should check out Poet And The Pendulum (Live Wembley) and The Greatest Show On Earth (Live Tampere) By Nightwish, those are more epic songs than Ghost Love Score. Great vocals there too. Poet might have some copyright problems but Greatest show doesen't have any.
Let me add... Before you watch Poet and Pendulum, read the story behind the song, it'll make it that much more amazing and heartfelt.
Tissues are mandatory for Poet And The Pendulum. 😭
poet and the Pendulum but only with subtitles :)
I almost cried when i reacted to Poet....I DID cry when I did "Our Decades In the Sun"
@@VerbalDroppings i always do. Its a bloody nightmare if im driving and that comes on, Its stupid. A 44 year old man balling like a baby because the lyrics are so moving!
I agree. How could I have ever missed this heavenly sound. I found this song 7 days ago. Must have listened to it 150 time, One day I looped it for my whole shift at work. A 10 hour day.
I liked how she listened all the way through before commenting and critiquing.
Love this type of reaction sitting and listening all the way through. Nothing more infuriating when someone not only stops it 73837336 times but always stops it just before a drop or huge moment in the song lol.
I absolutely LOVE the way you made this video. First to enjoy the video and you too enjoying it and then make the breakdown with clips of the video. Excellent! Next poet and the pendulum!
I did love the breakdown. Wish others would do that but I realise it requires extra editing.
Great reaction. You haven't even heard Marco (the tall blonde bassist) sing yet. Him and Floor together is magical.
Yeah, "Romanticide" from this same show is a great showcase in a shorter song of how great he sings both solo and with another vocalist! Marco rules.
Ghost River has a great chorus line for Marco and Floor's voice in backround hits you in the heart!
This! I love "The Islander" Live from Tempere, which features mostly Marco but Floors sings some backup for him, it's beautiful.
The end chorus on The Islander from Tampere when Floor joins him is legitimately the best sound I've heard in my life.
Welcome to the Nightwish nation... Marco is amazing to listen to! In addition to "The Islander", you should listen to him sing "High Hopes" from the "End of an Era" concert... absolute gold. (He has also just released a solo alum "Mustan Sydämen Rovio" from which the first single is "Isäni ääni". He is also the lead of a metal band Tarot with his brother... again very different.)
I really appreciate the fact that you waited till the end of the video to do commenting. I mean all reactors have their own style or way of doing things but the way you do it is what i prefer. Thank you for the great reaction.
Your smile was evident the whole video, but man did it grow at the end when Floor let out those last few notes, you felt what lots of people feel when they see and hear that.
I appreciate how you listened to the whole song with no interruptions, that's the way to experience a song.
The whole concert is an amazing masterpiece of music in history
You looked like a very proud mom watching her daughter winning a talent show. Excellent reaction!!
I love how you don't pause it every 5 seconds and give your opinion. Even though it's clear you want to say something it's fantastic seeing a reactor just enjoying the music.
It's nice to see someone just utterly entranced by the whole song, not just Floor's vocals.
Pleas more Nightwish. I guarantee you will love them. Floor will rock your world with what she can do.
No other word for it than Floorgasm! Makes me smile and get tears in my eyes every time she goes full on.
8 seconds into the actual music and she's already got a smile on her face. I cannot wait to see the rest of this!
One of the best concert ever, PERIOD. Anything off this Wacken, 2013 set list will be amazing to react to. Beware though, Nightwish switches back and forth from Symphonic Metal to Ballads, Heavy Metal, Folk Metal, Hard Rock and even some Pop, which is only possible because Tuomas the keyboardist who writes, arranges and blends most of Nightwish's songs is a genius and he has Floor now who can sing anything he creates. She has done the ballads, the duets, the heavy metal, the symphonic metal, the folk metal, bluesy jazz and even pop. You are also correct about this band, you experience them not merely listen to them which is why you always go with a LIVE performance if available as Floor's power, range and stage presence along with the crowd make for a fantastic experience. Great reaction and waiting to the end was a very nice and different experience which made your reaction and evaluation even better.
I so love that you just watched the whole song without any interruption, just enjoying what you see and stating your opinion afterwards instead of pausing the video, talking over it and showing that you can hit those notes as well as some other vocal coaches are doing. Well done... Thumbs up 🤗
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. It means a lot. 💖
Oh boy here come the crazy fans. Prepare for hundreds of more requests lol
We are legion! xD
@@anacitlalli1528 The Nightwish Legion! Resistance is futile!
@@ChrisPage68 ehhh there is no resistance
The power of Floorgasm! (And everything else I've heard of them since spring 2000.)
Basically the people who think that Floor is the only person good at singing live😂
Floor is classically trained at the University level, and is a voice teacher and vocal coach in her own right....by the way, she's 6-1 in bare feet, 6-5 in those high-heeled boots
A Valkyrie Goddess.
Roy Smothers, You are right she is also classical trained. But this was for 1 year and then she decides to go the last 3 years for the Rock/Metal side of the training. This was both on the Rock Academy in Tilburg (Netherlands). She explains this in a Dutch TV show, Reunion where her classmates where also present. The Classical training she did was because she loved to sing the high notes and she was not sure what style she wants. Her range is now from B3 to Fe6. I did see this show ( because I'm Dutch ).
@@wimthuis4741 natural talent always shine through.....
@@wimthuis4741 I watched the same program. First she did Rock Academy. Afterwards she did classical training
And she is beautiful!
Magnificent Regarding the comments of the reviewer. I was very appreciative that you didn't interrupt the music, like so many others. Most of the time as soon as the song is over I stop listening to what is being said. But with yours I was will to hear what you had to say after. I will look for more of your reviews because of that. Thank You
I really liked that you listened to the whole track before commenting,glad you liked it.Nightwish is an amazing band.
When she hits those high notes, that’s called a Floorgasm! Awesome to see you enjoy it so much!!!
Very well done video. Also the short clips towards the end to show what part you were discribing. I don't see many peole do that. Was cool. Keep it up, have fun and stay healthy.
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate the encouragement.❣️
Not sure if you noticed this or not, but you've smiled through the entire song. That's how you know someone actually enjoys something and you have a plethora of music waiting to be discovered. The best music isn't found on popular media, and when you have a crowd like that, coming to your show with no radio play, no mentions on any popular media or publications, you're doing something right.
I love this comment so much. You are so correct. Thank you so much for watching and adding to the conversation here. I appreciate you.🌟
The Voice Love Co. Thank you for the reply, If you'd like to dive a little further near to the genre. Symphony X - When All is Lost, may be something you'd be able to enjoy as well on your own time or if you'd like to do a reaction to it as well that would be fun to watch. Russell Allen is the singer from this group and has a great range of vocal capability, nowhere near Floor, but the musicianship behind him is top notch as well. It may be a bit heavier than Nightwish, but I think you may enjoy it as well. I hope you have a wonderful journey into undiscovered music.
One of my favorite symphonic metal group, thanks
I hear this song like for the 40th time and still get everytime a floorgasm. This is never getting old.
That's what makes a true singer and band. You feel it more than hear it. That's something that can't be taught.
Came for the song
Staid for the reaction
An the floorgasm.
Symphonic Metal 🤘🤘it will make you rock and cry at the same time😀
Omg! Never clicked so fast! Thank you for finally getting to this long requested video!
Yay! I had so much fun learning about Nightwish! Thanks for your contribution, Rosannasfriend.
And this song is only the beginning of symphonic metal experience!
Thank you for this reaction.Welcome to the epic and fabulous journey to the world of Nighwish.
I like the way you handle this. First the complete song followed by the analysis where you show a piece of the video which your comments were referring too. Well done.
Thanks, it's always enjoyable to watch a reaction to Nightwish, especially with Floor Jansen on lead female vocals. Their principal composer Tuomas Holopainen (the keyboardist) is a wizard in songwriting, There's so much talent in this band, and Floor as a vocalist is out of this world, period.
✌
Symphonic metal really is a gem in the music world. It popped up in the 90's with bands like Nightwish, because Metal music had become more widespread in the 80's, but then in Finland and other parts of Europe the people who got into it were classically educated musicians, so it very rapidly mixed together with classical and folk music. That's also why it's such a popular genre in Finland, people just take the drums and the guitars and combine them with different styles. Nightwish really hit the jackpot with getting Floor as their singer, she is such an amazing singer. She can match her voice to anything in the music, and the people in this band can do _a lot_ with the music.
Welcome to family of nightwish..loved the way you listened to it all the way and then gave us you insight and opinions..
Wonderful reaction, check out Santa Terra by epica featuring Floor live at retrospect for another wonderful symphonic metal band. That concert has a full orchestra and choir backing 2 of the best female vocalists alive.
I agree with this suggestion.
This concert is awesome for sure! I agree with you 100%
Excellent reaction. What I loved about this reaction is unlike other voice coaches, you didn’t stop the video to comment. You watched and enjoyed the performance then talked after it was over
Yeb hhhhhhhh (heavy sigh) that was my Amazon princes FLOOR , i can go to sleep now thanks and waiting for your next Nightwish reaction 💋❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👩🏻
Their live experience is exactly as you described; that's why I have seen them 9 times!
Wow, you are truly elegant and beautiful. It was enjoyable to watch you react to Nightwish. :)
Hello. Since this is your first reaction to Nightwish. I will give you a short history speech, "The Ann Waychoff" speech (a short / concentrated history of the band):
Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a female fronted symphonic metal band. 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 still is.
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 saw 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 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
I would like to recommend "Yours Is An Empty Hope" ua-cam.com/video/XtXqUNB8zrU/v-deo.html
Thank you.
Thank you!👏
Where's Ann?
@@larrysmith2638 Ann is recovering, at home. The last info I got is from GoFundMe, updated 8 days ago www.gofundme.com/annwaychoff
"I wanted to share Jim’s (Ann's husband) latest update on Ann:
She's doing better. She still can't sit up for any period of time, but I want her to try getting on her computer this week if for only short periods of time. She did get the package (sent by a fellow Nightwish fan) and of course she cried. Hopefully you'll be seeing her on all her sites in the very near future. Thanks for checking in."
I've watched this performance literally dozens of times and it always brings tears. Thanks for giving your reaction and appreciating the entire performance.
Christi, you did a magnificent job in recapping and analyzing this song by Nightwish!!! You allowed the entire song to play through without stopping, restarting, and interrupting this song!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!! The Very Best to you now and into the future!!! I AM A HUGE FAN!!!!!
Thank you, Scott. Lovely to hear your feedback. It means a lot. 💖
“Symphonic Metal, where have you been all my life”! Wow are you in for a treat. ❤️🤘
You HAVE to watch them LIVE...in 2020 they will have tour...and USA tour is a must to see...
Oooh! That sounds so fun!
Nightwish & Floor Jansen are a match made in heaven..Tuomas Holopainen (the keyboard player) is a genius and main songwriter, composer. I can’t explain how amazing this band is...pure class.
The biggest Joy in this video, is watching your face in response to various parts of this magical piece of music.
I love your happy and vibrant positivity when it comes to these reviews. When I see you have a new one I get so excited. You bring a little light to the crazy out there. Well done friend.
I have seen Nightwish in concert about 7 times. Floor is amazing and their concerts are fantastic.
I loved how you just watched the performance without interruptions and then you talked about it and showed the clips. That is the best format imho.
Interrupting, or talking on top of the performance is wrong , because this way you lose parts that may be important, and also lose the immersion into the song.
Well done! Subscribed! Oh! And long live NIGHTWISH! I 'd love to see more reactions from you.
Congratulations for your first Floorgasm
Nightwish - The Poet and the Pendulum - Live at Wembley 2015
this ^
Should pick the lyrics one
Ohhh nooo, there is no way back now, you are captured.
The music is called symphonic metal and i very populair in Europe and South America. The band is from Finland and founded 1996
. So far the band has had 3 vocalists
1 Tarja Turunen (Finish) pure opera voice also very good live. (until 2005)
2 Anette Olzon (Schwedish) more pop style. fine in the studio but not good live. (until 2012)
3 Floor Jansen* (Dutch) (current)
. * She is the vocalist you saw in this clip. She has a classical vocal background education and can sing any style she likes from jazz to opera high to growling low. Believe me when i tell you you have not even scratched the surface yet of what she capable of.
Band members
Tuomas Holopainen (The keyboard player and creative mind behind the band. He writes about 95% of the music and lyrics)
Marco Hietela (the viking with the long beard (Bass and vocals)
Jukka "Julius" Nevalainen (The drummer)
Erno "Emppu" Vuorinen (the hobbit like guitar player)
Troy Donockley ( a person who did not play on this song but is a multi instrumentalist from the UK)
The clip was shot a few months after Floor jointed the band right in the middle of their US leg of the world tour. They asked her to join after tensions between the previous (Anette) vocalist and the rest of the band had rissen so high that they fired her. With close to a year still to go to complete the tour, and their next concert planned 2 day later they, needed a replacement fast. They called Floor because she had toured with them when she was part of the support bands"After Forever" and later "Revamp" on several occasions and they were quiet impressed by her vocals (who would not be?). She only had 2 days, including a flight from the Netherlands to the US, to learn the setlist and only had one rehearsal with the band a couple of hours before her first show and nailed it. Since they were making a documentary about the worldtour a lot of what happened was recorded. The documentary is called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" (ua-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/v-deo.html )
As a next song to take a look at i would recommend their masterpiece "The poet and the pendulum" live at Wembley. Before you take a look at it i would recommend to take a look at the backstory of this song. This will make you appreciate it much more. here is the link ua-cam.com/video/gbn9GczYBkw/v-deo.html
BTW that last note she just sang? Nightwish fan created a whole new word for when she does something impressive like that. We call it a Floorgasm. Welcome to the club and boy are you going to receive a lot of traffic on your channel. ;-)
Dont forget all the fans in Japan also :-)
Ive been listening to Nightwish for years. Its fascinating to see people discover them for the first time.
Thanks Christi for the great reaction video love ya keep the great work
Glorious. Amen, sister.
If you reacts to more Nightwish (which I hope you will), please use the live versions over the recorded, and you really can't go wrong with Wachen 2013, Wembley Arena 2015 and Tampere 2015.
Exactly, can't go wrong with any of those you mentioned.
Can't go wrong with anything from End of an Era, either...
@@Max_Griswald That is also a great tour
The only thing I'd add to this is Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Bloodstock 2018.
Nightwish was the first symphonic metal band i met and i still love them!
One thing of note... this song is recorded over an hour into that concert... it's near the end of their set... so this is after they've been playing at this level for over an hour. Amazing.
Truly impressive. The stamina required to play and perform at that level is unbelievable. I'm in awe. 🌟
Best reaction in terms of just watching it and experiencing the song and let us see what you feel through emotions and little gestures
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish! Please react to Poet and the Pendulum. Tuomas is an amazing composer :)
Great reaction and break down! Was refreshing to see a vocal coach actually listen to the entire song without continuous pauses...saving all thoughts and comments until after the song was finished!
NIGHTWISH ARMY ..TAKES NOTICE !!...BE PREPARED
Gonna tell you. I watched many voice coaches react to this song. You're the first one that's not annoying. So big kudo's to you for this reaction.
The orchestral part is pre-recorded and this was actually recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra who also did Lord Of The Rings and many other beautiful music. So it's not just the keyboards :)
As i have seen Nightwish live 3 times (all with Floor as singer), it is a complete outer body experience, and the fan are amazing to hang out with while enjoying the show.
The final bit at the end....My fall will be for you...is often referred to as THE Floorgasm.
Wishing the Viking Queen a speedy recovery ... this performance is by far one of the top live performances ever ... the band was out of this world, and she delivered powerfully and gorgeously with a voice that can take troops to battle like a General!
Floorgasm achieved! Flawless, Floorful performance!!! Nightwish since 1996! React to her version of "Alone", since you mentioned Heart!? Big lungs - 6ft 1 in tall!!!
What a great reaction Christi. I've seen many, but this is the first for a vocal reaction that didn't stop the video or comment throughout the song. I also really liked when you would comment about a certain part or aspect of Floor's voice you followed it with a video clip. I really enjoyed your comments and reactions. May I also add that you are quite beautiful with a lovely smile. I look forward to you reacting to other Nightwish songs and any from this 2013 Wacken open air concert would be great. Floor has such a beautiful powerful voice with such dynamic range that she has become my all time favorite singer. When I first saw this video of Floor's vocals I experienced goosebumps, chills, hair standing on end and just in awe of her voice. She even moved me to tears in a good way. Thank you Christi.
I was also grateful that you complimented the entire band on their musicianship. They truly are very talented musicians that put on a great performance. When you mentioned exploring more symphonic bands, I really don't know how many other symphonic metal bands there are, but Nightwish is my band of choice. In fact Nightwish is currently the band I would most like to see live. They will be touring in 2020 and if there are any in the USA, I most certainly will be making an effort to see them.
You could react to Night Wish Phantom of the Opera with their first lead singer. The guy with the beard in pigtails can really sing.
