    Dude, I know it's in 'the list' somewhere, but the way this has struck into your soul, I recommend "Shoemaker" official lyric video. This is the story of Eugene Shoemaker, considered the father of planetary science and co-discoverer of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9. This is the one that crashed into Jupiter in about 1994.
    Shoemaker is the only person who has had their ashes sent to the moon.
    This song by Nightwish and Floors singing gives me endless shivers and, with the video adding to the song, especially the ending, brings tears of pure joy on every listen.
    In fact, many songs do this. I have become addicted to "Floorgasms," too. I warn you now. Listening to her is like cocaine for the soul.

    Metal music bringing you happiness and joy is not at all a juxtaposition. Fun fact: this has actually been studied, and listening to metal music measurably makes people happy. DW has a minidoc about this on youtube called "why metalheads are happier people". Being German television, they visited Wacken for that. Can recommend.

    Once again noticed few things common to first reactions on Nightwish, that show the emotions they are able to create. First is involuntary smiling - people just "burst" in to smiles without being able to hold them in. Second and even more telling is people instinctively holding their chest to calm themselves down. Its usually a primal reaction to adrenaline, over bearing joy, surprise - as well as fear. Just a proof how they reach emotions - actually by using the same techniques as in classical/symphonic compositions.

    Hello, Mert Fin. Nightwish Army new subscriber here for you. Thank you for this wonderful reaction to our beloved Nightwish with Floor Jansen on female lead vocals. Carol, my lovely wife of 42 years, and I got to travel from Phoenix to San Francisco to see them perform live at the historic Warfield Theatre on May 18th, 2022. The show was incredible and we had a terrific time from when we were standing in line with so many other Nightwish fans to get in until the very end of the concert. Keep working through Gabriel's list... although it is okay to skip around as the mood takes you.

    i watch your channel now for 6-12 months
    ❤Now i love to see that you discovered them as well and am looking foreward to each and every song you might gonna react to. Your joy and excitement feels so genuine and i can see myself in it and how it felt to hear those songs for the first (few) time(s). thank you for bringing back those emotions of first time experiancing it!
    It might be interesting for you to hear "Nightwish - The Phantom Of The Opera (OFFICIAL LIVE)" live from the 2005 end of an era tour with their first leadsinger Tarja to see where they came from. Also the song is a classic and a total banger wich gets even better because we all kinda know the original song from the musical. Needless to say Nightwish made that song next level.
    Also there is a version of that song from Floor at "beste zangers" from 2019 wich had gone completely viral. Good oppertunity to hear them side by side and hear how different and similar they are. maybe even in a singular reactionvideo each after anoher? (just dont rate them or pick a favorite. they are both great and many fans might have a favorite, so you dont wanna hurt anybody 😉)

There is so much variety and so many nuances to their music ... and their live performances are, in my opinion, simply breathtaking. Listening to, and especially watching Nightwish, I'm usually either grinning like a maniac or wiping a tear from my eye. No recommendations from me, you can't go wrong following Gabriel's advice. Enjoy the journey, as a new subscriber, I will watch on with interest. All the very best from the Canberra Regiment, Australian Division, Nightwish Army.

    Where much music (metal or other) is formulatic (guitar riffs and drum solos) Nightwish is anything but. Everyone does what is needed without having to be the “star”. Floor may be the front person and perceived as the star but she totally realizes and appreciates that it is the presence of all of them performing together at the very highest level that creates the Nightwish vibe and excellence.
    The juxtaposition of her insane range and presence and this bands hard hitting insane talent is incredible

    Although I am totally sold on Floor as a vocalist and cannot really listen to the previous vocalists it is worth acknowledging their contribution. Tarja Turunen sang on the first 5 albums and was a huge influence on Tuomas Holopainen the keyboardist and composer which is why they are all written for an operatic style of voice including Ghost Love Score to which Floor added grit and versatility. The second singer Anette Olzon was a pop singer who struggled to sing Tarja's songs but allowed Tuomas to write two albums in a different style hence Storytime where Floor was able to sing the middle operatic section and not rely on a recording. Every song at this concert was written for those previous singers and virtually everyone in the crowd, except a few naysayers, heard Nightwish taken to another level.

    Well now, a few things...
    Yes, Nightwish live outdoes every band I have seen, including Sabbath, Metallica etc.
    You have seen nothing of Floors range yet
    You have yet to experience the range of what Tuomas' Holopainen can write and the band can deliver. Floor can do all of it.
    But Floor can make you feel whatever she wants you to feel, whether it's happy (Alpenglow, Elan, My Walden), energy (7 Days to the Wolves, Storytime and many others), sadness (Dead Boy's Poem, The Poet and the Pendulum), indescribable feelings from the likes of Sleeping Sun, amazement (Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Slaying the Dreamer) or just such a mixture (Song of Myself, again Poet and the Pendulum).
    Wacken is a great concert and considered by many to be the best. Personally I am in a small but not insignificant minority that gives that honour to Buenos Aires 2018, where you get such songs as my No's 4 and 4 (joint) Devil and Dead Boy above as well as Slaying the Dreamer and many others brought back from the early days and reinterpreted to new levels with Floor
    Wembley and Tampere 2015 are right up there too - Wembley contains 2 of my top 5 mentioned above, Poet and 7 Days
    You are at the very beginning of scratching the merest top molecular layer of this band and you have much to amaze you yet.
    (Can you tell like them?)
    There's lots more to be said of course but just keep exploring this rabbit Warren and a huge crowd of the Army will be with you.
    Nice to see a reaction from our side of the Pond.

    Incidentally, Nightwish has the most beautiful version of *Walking in the Air* from the Snowman by their first lead singer Tarja. I can't recommend that song enough since you love the animation, but unlike with the more recent Nightwish, I recommend listening to the studio version
    Nightwish didn't start putting focus and resources into live performances until Imaginerium era around 2011, and anything before that is usually better as a studio version, apart from a few specific live shows. There are a lot of practical reasons for this, that I won't go into here to keep the comment reasonably short

    The funny thing is... at that moment at the Wacken festival, she was "merely" the substitute for their previous singer.
    While the band was in mid-tour, Annette (their singer at that time) fell seriously ill and couldn't continue the tour. Floor was flown in on a very short notice, so understandably all the songs that she sang weren't 'her' songs. Neither were they written to match her voice and style.
    So, as versatile as Floor could be, she matched her voice and style to the songs.
    Not long after, she was made a permanent member, including Troy, their multi-instrumentalist. You will see more from him in the continuation of your Nightwish journey.

    I am at Nightwish concerts every time the band comes to my country and every single time it is an incredible experience. It's like being on a roller coaster throughout all the show and the quality of the concerts is always very high. Nightwish never disappoints.

    You are spot - Tuomas the writer and composer, are a real genius at the same level as the big ones like Mozart, Bach etc etc.
    And Floor - well you have still not experienced more than 10% of her capabilities - you just keep going - she will blow your mind.
    Imagine being a songwriter and composer of Tuomas's caliber, and then realize that you will never more have amy kind of limitations!!!!
    That's Nightwish from October 2012....

    Ah... You're just getting started. It's a very deep rabbit-hole!!!
    And I know you're supposed to be learning about Finland, but you must also take a detour to the Netherlands to see more of Floor Jansen.
    I only found Nightwish and Floor Jansen last November and just missed the chance to see NW in Birmingham, but next time they're in travelling distance, I will be there. *Almost* got to see Floor Jansen in Bloemendaal in July on her solo tour, but she had to cancel due to exhaustion. Which is fair enough as she was heavily pregnant and had been performing non-stop since November last year with both Nightwish and also promoting her new solo album, having just returned from surgery for breast cancer. She's a machine, but ultimately a human one!

    Wait for "Ever Dream" also Wacken 2013!
    And BEFORE listening to "The Poet and the pendulum" read the background story of that song!
    You also should have a look at the video "why metalheads are happier people" on UA-cam to understand how metal worksfor most of us metalheads...

    I loved your reaction. It does my heart good to see how happy the music makes you. Every musician in this band is a master. Tuomas, the keyboardist, is the Metal Mozart, who composes and arranges 95% of their music. You have so much more, and different, music to listen to. Why, you haven't even heard Marko, the bassist, sing yet. Just keep following Gabriel's list and you will have so many wonderful discoveries ahead.

    Nightwish actually has an amazing version of Walking in the air! It's with their old (first) singer Tarja, I recommend checking that out, maybe a studio version is better but Tarja has also great live performances - for examaple Phantom of the opera. I really love and enjoy your reactions, they give me a big smile so thank you! :)

    Since discovering this band only a few years ago I can't go a day without listening to them and especially Floor. That said, if you like The Snowman then do listen to Nightwish with original singer Tarja's stunningly beautiful version of Walking In The Air.

    Toumas asked himself if he was to write a song for an updated "Snowman" in the place of "Walking in the Air" what might it sound like. In the Nightwish movie, "Imaginaerum", with the film's story adapted from the album's songs, "Storytime" accompanies a scene of a boy flying with a snowman (a creepier one than in the original though)

    WELL, As a Canadian I have watched your reactions before about my country. I am a huge "Nightwish" fan so have now subscribed. Gabriel is your best source for info and I know you will enjoy the ride. In case you did not know Floor is married to the drummer in a group called "Sabaton" a must watch group as well.

    Floor is a very special woman.
    Our Queen, Valkyrie Goddess of Metal, never fails to impress.
    Though she is modest and says of course she is not a machine; at times when sick will sing off key or with less power, but, she always gives us her all.
    She sings and feels the music to her soul.

    Hey mate, one of your channel visitors from the German channel here. Nightwish are probably THE most influental export from Finland at all. Tuomas is called the metal Mozart for a reason, they are just that good. Not to mention the fact that good old Floor is probably one of the best female voices in the world. So keep soldiering on, their whole repertoire is worth watching!

    I saw them live in Sweden in the summer of 2012, then with the second singer Anette, and latest one was this summer in Stockholm with a pregnant Floor delivering as usual a 2 hour show like a Valkyrie Queen.
