I always forget how good this song is, until I see someone react to it. Then I'm just like "oh, yeah! This song is awesome!"
A great song with Floor soaring legato over Marcos gritty staccato.
It's a metaphor for the River of Life.
Notice how Floor does a little growl at one point, while being slinky and sultry in other parts.
Jeff over at Stratele Studios did a two-part video just on Emppu's guitar part.
In Floor's part I particularly like the bit after the childrens' choir where she goes into the long high note starting absolutely straight and gradually adding vibrato. Masterful vibrato and breath control.
This is from the Imaginaerum album and this show is part of the Imaginaerum tour
To go with this there is a full length Nightwish feature film also of the same name. Dark but compelling, with the band taking roles throughout
That film gives context for the album and the songs on it - watch it!
For example, here, the flight of the snowman in the film reaches a section where the ghost river cones into view.
When the album came out, Tuomas said:m 'life is the ultimate privilege; a river filled with wonders and horrors. Love, sorrow, beauty, evil and temptation, and we need them all to survive and enjoy the journey. Good, Evil, Pain and Pleasure'
The chanting of the Young Musicians London choir cast Marco as the Pied Piper luring children into the darkness.
Marco's role in the film references Snow White and bridge-dwelling trolls; Anette takes a motherly tone, insisting to 'never lose your heart' as she begs us to come across; Floor translates this better and can really act the temptress.
In an interview with an Italian metal magazine, Tuomas described the two characters as "the devil and mother Gaia'.
Thr direction from here should be Buenos Aires 2018 show...
Yeah, I see the two characters as both supernatural beings beyond human concerns. They may seem "nice" and "nasty", but both want you to cross the river, and the female voice is perfectly content for your kind heart to bleed.
Actually, I find the growl slinky and sultry.
I'm a big fan of female voices in metal, but there's just no one else like Floor.....so glad that she's performing this music in my lifetime!! Love Floor, love NIghtwish, love metal!!🤘
Random pull is the way to do it - that way you get to sample multiple comcerts.
True!
Where to go? Where to go? Let's see Wembly 2015 would be a great start. That would be the Endless Forms Most Beautiful Tour. Everyone just jumps in in random places but the songs line up to tell a story so watching the concert in order is the best way to go.
Great reaction. Love the hat, Go Steelers!!! - Go Nightwish.
Rock on!
Your intuition about the basic dichotomy/duel between the 'characters' of Marko and Floor is spot on. Lyrics are worth checking out.
Will do!
Another one of my favorite Nightwish songs (I know I say that a lot :) ) I love Floor's near acapella vocals at the break near the end of the song. I replay that part a whole lot!
After those three songs, you could go to Wembley Arena concert or Tampere concert....amazing.
Thanks for your reaction🤘
After this show you could go for their show in Wembley 2015 which is a great performance just as good as Wacken. My personal favourite 🤘🖤
You nailed it without lyrics. Marko the evil spirit. Floor the nurturing encouraging spirit. The journey of life is a dangerous road/river filled with twists and turns, ups and downs.
Awesome!
'Dark demonic figure' , and 'wailing spirit' is pretty much right on target. Tuomas has said that the song is a duel between the Devil and Mother Gaia.
From the 2011 Imaginerum album, Anette era. It is a darker song , but that is to balance out with the other songs on the album.
Tuomas' remarks about the album and this songs place: "Since this is a dramatic album about the celebration of life and existence, you need the dark side as well. I love the dark side and I love all kinds of evil stuff, so we needed a few songs to describe those. 'Ghost River' and 'Rest Calm' are the two songs that are talking about the dark side of life."
Love the back and forth vocals in this, another with some back and forth is "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" (live at Buenos Aires 2018).
Also , Floor does a bit of growling in this, check out "Yours Is an Empty Hope" (live from Wembley 2015 or Mexico City 2015) for more of the growls.
Nice!
Nice reaction! And yes - that WAS Floor growling! Just as a P.S. - please can you turn down your Intro/Outro music a little? It's WAAAAY louder than the rest of the Video. Thanks.
Noted. Thanks for the heads up!
@@teckreactions hey Matt, FYI ,this is a massive YT fan base & it is certainly not represented by "any" one person,nor should any reactor solely look to one person for song/venue recommendations as that is not the intent and results in reactions to venue versions that are not the best,such an example as "Yours Is An Empty Hope",95% of fans recommend the Wembley Arena 2015 version as it has the best audio,video,stage & performance,but one persons list has the Mexico City venue which is inferior
@@nicod1361 I get that. But it was overwhelmingly suggested as the best place for a newbie to start.
Hello again, Teck. Another great reaction to another wonderful performance from Wacken 2013. Loved it.
Thanks again!
Are they great🤩 .. yep they're more than GREAT.. Thanks🤘 .. Greetings from Amsterdam.. ✌
Yeah, no cold shower here. 😂 Also I giggled at the same spots you did when I first saw this video. 😂😊
The ENTIRE Wacken 2013 show was top notch from the very start to end song. Not a bad performance in the entire show.
This is gold ! Great song and reaction. Greetings from nwAse Sweden
Greetings!
"Devil and the deep dark ocean" is another great song of Nightwish. And "Islander" from live Tampere
What is next... Wembley Arena 2015 "Shudder before the beautiful", "Yours is an Empty Hope". "7 days to the Wolves"... Then the big one... "The Poet and the Pendulum" (You should ask about the meaning and back story before doing The Poet and the Pendulum. It will enhance the experience by helping you follow the song's story).
I've done TPATP -- ua-cam.com/video/EjnOI3vbqIs/v-deo.htmlsi=Vib4sR53g1gKqyT7
Thanks
My pleasure!
Where to go next? Epica! A good way to ease into that band is the song Sancta Terra, with Floor performing a duet.
Cool!
I concur
Yeah! A totally epic song!
🤗🍒🤘🏻 well done as always and welcome back
Thank you! Cheers!
Another fun one!
🔥🤘😝🤘🔥
They've all been fun!
The "river of life" can be exciting (per Floor), but it also has its dangers (Marko, the troll under the bridge.) Definitely one of their more "metal" numbers.
Sweet
Beforethe new album is coming there is their latest album, Human and Nature a fantastic dubble album
Thanks again. Go on with Seven Days to the Wolves from Wembley 2015 and Phantom of the Opera with Tarja and Marko from 2005.👍
3:02 & 4:52 floor growling
Cool
I love my perceived dichotomy of this song. Marko's voice is rough, hard; but it is warning about the river's dangers. Floor's sweet, angelic vocals are soothing and luring you in to the river; however, if you listen carefully, the devil growl in her voice comes through in a few places!!!
Interesting
Hi boy: Gethsemane live in Buenos Aires. So so symphonic song (from Oceanborn).
Have a great life.
Bye
Please don’t call me boy.
Need to do romanticide by night wish. Also yours is an empty hope by them.
Romanticide has been done. YIAEH is in one of those random choices. We'll see where it's pulled.
I concur for YIAEH 😊
YIAEH - an _awesome_ song for Floor’s growls.
You mentioned in your very first reaction that you found Floor through searching The phantom of the opera videos. While I love Floor.. she's the singer I know having come on during her reign..I thought you'd get a kick out of Nightwish ALSO performing Phantom of the Opera with Tarja and Marko. I will never go back to the standard version of it after hearing the metal version! :D
I'll check that out!
Dat guitar riff.
WHAM BAM THANK YOU MAM. alsoo Floor does the two grawls.
Love your take on songs from my favorite band!❤
I’ll tell ya. I always thought this song told me shady things come from grit AND seemingly angelic sources. The Ghost River is dangerous yet both Marco and Floor are telling me to cross.😂😂😂😂😂
Crazy

Bom dia, boa tarde,boa noite!
You will only have made it through part of his list; it continues! :D check his community posts again! :) Put some in the hat from the Tarja era and the Anette era, too. :)
🤘😊🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯👍
Thank you for watching, but😲 only 3?😪
Unfortunately the list does'nt mention their last (2023) released live official video of TRIBAL
It's my absolute favourit of their last album and A GEM FOR DRUMMER.❤
3 left on the original list. That does not mean I'm going to stop there though.
I doubt you finished ALL songs in Gabriel's list ua-cam.com/users/gbardaccommunity ;)
Maybe you should go through remaining songs of the Wacken 2013 gig? There is a playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLexzLA11Cst1G4E0D61rAnWvnDF4zIz8M.html
I have not finished all of them yet. There are a few more random songs written down to pull from.
It's really welcome that some reactor dares to ignore the list
@@teckreactions Two Gabriel's lists/post in his community page (link above) have 60+ individual song links and links to multiple playlists. This was your 11th NW song and their newest single isn't in Gabriel's list. I'm just reacting to you saying around 8:50 mark that you only have three songs left from the list. ;)
@@oulajp The point of my comment was not about going (or not) through the list. The point was that he said around 8:50 mark that he has only 3 songs left from Gabriel's list(s) after listening to 10 songs from the list (Perfume of the Timeless wasn't in the list). I don't care about the method that he uses to choose the next song. :D
@@monksuu I didn't see his second post. Just the first.
Is Marko the dark one, or is he the warning? Or is Floor the warning? That’s what everyone wants to know!!
I like your content but missing your music analysis part.
Yeah. I’ve drifted away a little and just enjoyed taking it all in. It’ll come back. Thanks!
please don't forget to let your mind be blown away with some older Nightwish songs with Tarja. Floor is amazing with the older songs but some of them are just owned by Tarja ( & Marco) :p
Endless Forms Most Beautiful from Wembley Arena,
Hi Teck, I am a big Nightwish army member. You should put the Danish band "Within Temptation" on the reaction list. Somewhat similar to Nightwish and has sold more albums. Try the songs "Faster" or "The Reckoning". Explain the bands to "The Hu" songs "Wolf Totem" or "Black Thunder". Good luck.
Within Temptation is dutch...like Floor 😅
Compared to your actual video, your Intro is very loud (at least for headphones). Also it starts very sudden so i can see some people getting a little jumpscare from it.
Thanks for the feedback!
After those last three random pulls I would say to check out the Buenos Aires 2018 live show. Slaying the Dreamer, Devil & the Deep Dark Ocean, Dead Boys Poem, 10th Man Down, many good ones you haven’t heard yet & then there are new performances of some you have heard.
You know that there's a second list in Gabriel's other community post, right?
I did not.
@@teckreactions All of the songs wouldn't fit in one post. I guess you're not done yet 🤣
