I'm Cristina, opera singer, singing teacher and speech pathologist. I have spent over a decade in the music industry as a performer, and I’ve done some pretty cool things as an opera singer, film vocalist, lyricist and jazz singer.
Here you'll find videos that deep-dive into artists that you adore. We'll unpack what makes a great and not so great vocal performance, and we'll also get into some voice tips and education about the science of the voice.

Floor made the dog bark!!!😂😂😂❤❤❤
😂😂😂 she made THREE dogs bark!
First dog’s Floorgasm ever on UA-cam 👌🏻😂
@@cristinamrusso she is used to, she howls with her Irish Wolfhound:) ok she never can keep her Mouth long Shut, she sings all the Time, somehow, at least thats what her ppl say:)
Stay healthy!
Classic vocal coach reaction progression - you were interested by extreme vocal? Listen to demolisher by slaughter to prevail :)
@@drop_bear2308
2nd that.
THE WɅRNING are so awesome!! 🔥
When Floor sang this she was already 13 songs into a 15 song set. She had been singing for well over an hour when she cranked this out.
Not to mention she joined the band weeks if not before days before this gig
Yes and not to mention that this was at Wacken, with about 85000 visitors, of course not all were on that stage but .... And it is a recommendation to watch her own reaction on that video.
AND her voice grew across that long ass song. She gets better towards the end.
@@Sharky762... Na, our Valkyrian Goddess is impressive and an incredible world-class singer, but she didn't join Nightwish only a few weeks, or days, before Wacken Open Air 2013.
Wacken Open Air 2013 took place from August 1st 2013, and Floor joined Nightwish on October 1st 2012.
Still impressive though, the way Floor in just 10 months had given e.g. this song her own take, when you think about how complex many Nightwish songs are.
@@AkkerDKthe best way to describe it, 10 months was not a long time to really establish which of the absolute classic Tarja songs to have her do at a level that makes people ok replacing Tarja. Floor is phenomenal but it is still a very tall order to replace someone who was already iconic to the sound of those songs. So yeah, 10 months can sound like a long time, but really wasn’t at all. Super impressive
Hello Cristina Russo ! 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 posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community
🤘
Gabe! It would not be a Nightwish reaction without you keep up the great work Ann would be proud.
Wonderful reaction, Cristina! Pls, follow Gabriels lead. Some songs, like Poet and the Pendulum need to be researched before you react to it. Sometimes the WHY is important to understand the composition. This is a ride you will love. PLEASE share your first reactions to all of Nightwish's songs with us. Watching you reminds US of what we felt the first time we saw and heard the song.
@@Frightspear After tens and tens of these I actually watched a reaction today without Gabriel's post. After I finished watching the reaction the page must have refreshed and lo behold it was there xD
Gabe, my general *salutes* NW Birmingham, UK. Lance division signing in
Hello General ! 😁
General Gabriel!
I like it when vocal coaches start off singing parts along, and then end with "yeah, I can't do that".
The raised eyebrows when Floor Jansen started singing is classic.
That whole 2013 Wacken concert was absolute fire.
Probably their best live performance.
Can’t decide between Wacken and the End of an Era 😊
For me probably up there with one of the best live performances ever
So true man. But when GLS come, I cant decide which preforme was better ,Wacken or Buenos Saires.
For my taste an for me personal it was a BS. Wacken is completely crazy from start to the and. But again for my ear, the best version of GLS was im BS 🏆
Argentina is really good also
Yes but it was also good video and sound recording. But if you did not see it.. ua-cam.com/video/cAwtzi7Q3Bk/v-deo.html
I love when vocal coaches are like, "I know what she's doing, I just don't know HOW she's doing it" 😅 the woman is a beast and is the best at what she does 😊
Its always great to watch Opera singers discover Nightwish. You can almost hear the thoughts in their head when they get that look, "I could have gone a different way"
Sometimes I think certain looks reflect a realisation that the person they're reacting to might be a better singer than they are 😉
@@pjfolkes1973 It´s not difficult being better than an opera singer, in general they are the bottom scrape who couldn´t make it elsewhere.
The orchestral parts are all composed by Tuomas (keyboards) and recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
I love when people enjoy Ghost Love Score this much because us fans know it's just the BEGINNING. There's so many other songs that showcases not only Floor's but the entire bands absolute dominance in skill and entertainment.
Indeed. Tuomas is an absolute perfectionist, and perfection for Nightwish is ALMOST good enough.
And the music and lyrics Metal Mozart writes....
Yep, she ain't seen nothing yet!
Dominance? Epica has certainly been a huge rival, and they're more varied overall in terms of musical elements (the harsh vocals and the full-on choirs definitely add an extra layer)
I do feel like this song always opens the doors for almost all who have little exposure to Nightwish
^^what this guy said! 1000%
Floor’s voice makes me cry. She must be an angel.
For your information, Floor is Dutch and did 4 years of Rock Academy, one year musical theatre and one year belcanto. The last two at the conservatory ofcourse. She started singing in After Forever at the age of 16 and worked as a vocal coach for a few years. She had a burnout whe her band broke up and while still recovering, was called by Nightwish, to get her to fill in for the previous singer Anette Olzon, who left the band in the middle of an American tour. She flew over to the US, had only a day or two to learn all the lyrics and finished the tour.
The band learned to know Floor and they loved her and her musical talents, so they asked her to stay and become the lead singer. She officially joined at the same time Troy Donockley did. He's an English multi-instrumentalist, especially known for the Ullean Pipes. The bassist Marco Hietala (the guy with the white hair and beard) is a good singer too and he regularly joins in. He and Floor harmonize great together.
If you want to hear more of her soprano voice, I recommend her duet Stabat Mater Dolorosa with the band Epica of whom the lead singer is her long time friend Simone Simons: ua-cam.com/video/nhtOORYTGx8/v-deo.html They do this in the middle of a metal concert and with a full orchestra back stage. Or her solo performance of "Das Vilja Lied": ua-cam.com/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/v-deo.html&pp=ygUWZmxvb3IgamFuc2VuIHZsamEgbGllZA%3D%3D And if you still want more, Nightwish's 'Shoemaker' (an ode to Eugene Shoemaker) ua-cam.com/video/Rjp_DfvJimg/v-deo.html&pp=ygUTc2hvZW1ha2VyIG5pZ2h0d2lzaA%3D%3D
O, almost forgot. Can you react to Jonathan Antoine? Granada would be nice: ua-cam.com/video/oxQnYReOvfo/v-deo.html&pp=ygUYam9uYXRoYW4gYW50b2luZSBncmVuYWRh
I´m sorry but Floor soprano is very mediocre, I´m sorry.
@@yogajedi3337 I have to agree - you are indeed sorry.
Floor is one of the greatest singers and performers that has ever lived. Facts.
Yes🤘
I concur
@@ralfmeyer9086 If I remember correctly, this song was like 11 deep in like a 15 song set. She is like a machine.
@@jackblack8667 Hello, a tip from me. Floor reacted herself to this Version of GLS. It is amazing 🤘 Yep, you are right in the Wacken Show. Greetings from nothern Germany
I concur
Love watching someone hearing Nightwish with Floor for the first time!
This never gets old 😂
@@MrBerkeler And also very addictive, i'm having so much fun to watch new reactors react!
@@anaguq4651 I know right? It's like the hobby I didn't know I needed
@@MrBerkeler Nightwish are simply masters of their craft. And masterly music in general never gets old - like that of Bach, Vivaldi, The Beatles, Queen. Timeless. 👍😊
It's great, isn't it!
I have listened to this song so many times and in particular this version due to watching a lot of reactions on it. Been a Nightwish fan since their early days, but that last note still gives me the tingles. What I love about seeing a first time reaction to this song is knowing what is coming when someone has a wow moment early on, it's a case of "just wait....."
It has to be live.., and I'm not sure if it's this or I wish I had an angel, but it ends with fireworks, and it's epic!
Floor Jamsen is one of the greatest vocalists of our time! Im somglad to be around to listen to the music that she makes for all of us to hear!
Floor is so incredibly versatile! Her range, her breath support/control, and how fast she can move from style to style, is amazing. Not to mention, her stage presence is perfect
Not forgetting her perfect pitch and tonal quality.
Too right👍🏼Floor is larger than life on that stage, absolutely owns it!
Floor is the Best female singer on Earth 🌎 ❤️
Floor is an international metal treasure. But she's not the only one. There are some phenomenal opera / classical vocalists in symphonic metal, like Simone Simons of Epica, Sharon den Adel of Within Temptation, Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil, and many more besides.
I'd love to see @Cristina Russo react to Sharon Den Adel, maybe in Avantasia's Farewell, besides of some Within Temptation tracks 😍
Really enjoy each of the bands you've mentioned here. Have listened to Nightwish, Lacuna Coil and Within Temptation since 2013 and just recently started Epica for a few months. Another fantasy-type band that's cool is Amaranthe... their Nexus song is awesome. Picking up other bands such as Nemesea, Leaves' Eyes, We Are The Fallen, Sirenia and Delain. Then there is the fairytale (knights, dragons, hobbits) bands like DragonForce and Twilight Force that are .... WOW :D
Someone who is absolutely, ABSOLUTELY underrated in the west is Fuki from Unlucky Morpheus, a Japanese Metal band. Holy shit she is amazing.
You are like my favorite person lol! All we need is one of Sirenia's singers on that list xD
@@chrisx7090 Only one I'm missing from the original lineup is lacuna; Leaves' Eyes also so good would love to see them too. Sirenia is next on the list, I have had the pleasure of seeing Delain. Epica recently toured US w/Sabaton which is also worth a rabbit hole.
One of my life's greatest honors was seeing her sing this from 20 feet away...
Her autograph and tour shirts from 2016 remain on the wall.
Still tear up...
Floor is super versatile and nobody can deny her voice is out of this world amazing :]
Nightwish was the headline band at Wacken in 2013, so they were the last act of a four day festival, and Ghost Love Score was the 13th of 15 songs in the set. The crowd energy is amazing for being the end of the festival.
Mind blowing.... that's Floor and Nightwish. Since discovering Nightwish and Floor around 14 months ago one of my favourite things to do is to vicariously relive my first time listen to Nightwish songs through first time reactors. Thank you so much. Paul🙏😊👍❤️
It’s my daily candy! First time floorgasms
Me too.
Me too. It brings a smile, and sometimes a tear, as they hear THAT note and I remember my first Floorgasm.
The entire band leaves the stage during the interlude. It's to let the music speak for itself. And to take a minute for water and such.
Floor is Classically trained, though she favors metal over classical. You should react to her Phantom of the Opera performance on Beste Zangers. Her performance alongside Henk Poort is absolutely fantastic.
One of the many things that's amazing with Floor is that she knows precisely when to do something and how much. She never goes overboard just for effect. That's why we have Floorgasms, she knows the perfect moment to give us extra everything and she do it so well. Few other can do what she does with her voice, anything and without effort.
Hi, nightwish fan here, from the netherlands..dutch symphonic metalband Epica had some years ago an 10 year celebration performance with a philharmonic Orchestra and a choir. During breaktime for the band floor jansen of nightwish, together with simone simons of epica, did an amazing performance of stabat matar dolorisea..very old hymne about Maria crying over death of her son..the metal audiance was in awe..
I know the piece very well, I've sung it before ;)
Loved your comments and insights! The bands composer, Tuomas Holopainen, is a big fan of music from soundtracks and cites Hans Zimmer and Disney as one of his influences so spot on with the Zimmer comment. The organ pipe thingy is Tuomas's keyboard stand (two Korg keyboards behind and a holder for a bottle of wine) and is modeled on the Sibelius Monument in Helsinki. Jean Sibelius, famous Finnish classical composer, is another one of Tuomas's hero's and musical inspirations. Loved your Disney vocal comment early on as well. During the pandemic Floor recorded some covers in her home studio to post on her YT channel. One of the first was Let it Go for her daughter and she later recorded Into the Unknown as well. Floor is over 6' and she says she has lungs like a deep sea diver which helps her achieve that impressive breath control. I have seen a few video's where you can see her diaphragm expand and contract as she supports hearth breathe. If you want to see her sing straight up opera their is a video of her singing O Mio Babbino Caro, ua-cam.com/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/v-deo.html and Vilja Lied on the Dutch singing show Beste Zangers, ua-cam.com/video/JN80AfHiUTY/v-deo.html. Turn on subs to get English translations of the before and after banter. Hope you continue to explore more of Nightwish and Floor. There is a lot to check out.
Wow! You can absolutely hear the influence of Zimmer and Disney music, it's cool to read that this is intentional. Thanks so much for watching and sharing!
@@cristinamrusso He used to have a Jack Sparrow figure on his keyboard stand back in the day 😁
He IS the reincarnation of Sibelius!!!
Tears in my eyes as well. The beltfeeling, and controllscreeming.
Nightwish is the band that invented symphonic metal. They started as a death metal band added an opera singer in 1998 and create a new genre that made a huge wave in Europe and South America. Floor Jansen is their third singer and the fans have created a new word floorgasm.
Great reaction, definitely looking forward to you going down the NightWish rabbit hole.
Really enjoyed this insightful reaction. Tuomas (keyboards/composer) is a Zimmer fan and you can tell from some of their music (this one for sure has Pirates vibe). Floor’s breath control and ability to switch seamlessly from one style to next and ability to make you feel every word separates her from the rest for me. Plus her stage presence is unparalleled. Her belts are the icing on the cake. 🤘
Great to hear another Aussie listening to Nightwish! Real bummer that they didn't come to Australia on the recent world tour. Reckon you would really like Dead Boy's Poem, live Beunos Aires 2018, and the recent Phantom of the Opera live in Amsterdam 2022.
Southwestern British Columbia Canadian Division reporting. Congratulations Christina! You have just witnessed perhaps the greatest live performance in modern music history! Gabriel will guide you with a wealth of knowledge in your new journey. Great reaction!
Your eyes !! 😊🤗❤
Floor Jansen pronounced Yahn-sen is the third singer of Nightwish and she is Dutch as am I. Floor went to the Rock Academy while being the lead singer of a metal band at 17 years old. She felt something was missing and one day an opera teacher came to teach at her school. She took opera lessons for a couple of years as well as musical singing. One of the bands Floor was in was called After Forever back in those days she growled and belted even more. Floor was known all over the world except in her own country The Netherlands... that is until she was asked to sing PHANTOM of THE OPERA in a Dutch tv show. Floor sang Phantom of the Opera in a tv show called Beste Zangers with her childhood male idol who actually played the Phantom of The Opera Henk Poort. After thi s performance Floor was famous over night in her own country which made her decide to do a solo show in The Netherlands without Nightwish. She was also asked to perform at the German version of the show. Beste Zangers tv show with Floor in it a lot of reactors on UA-cam reacted to it as Floor sing Lady Gaga song and many others. Beste Zangers tv show with Floor is on UA-cam. It is a tv show were famous singers sing each others songs or songs of cover songs they like. One week one singer is picked and all the other famous singers sing their songs or covers of songs they like. The tv show for a change It is not a competition to win it is to celebrate one singer a week. These songs the other famous sing for them really mean something to them like songs when they went to a difficult time or when they lost someone so it is more of an emotional show than a competion to win. A lot of UA-cam reactors like yourself have reacted to Floor singing Phantom of The Opera, Lady Gaga and many more songs on tv show Beste Zangers. All episodes with Floor of tv show Beste Zangers are on UA-cam. P.s. After Floor got famous in her own country The Netherlands she was invited to sing the national Anthem of her country to open The Formula 1 racing the biggest car race in the world for millions of people on tv and on the track itself in a town called Zandvoort. Floor can sing in 6 different languages she can sing pop, rock, metal, belt, grunt, opera, musical theater and she also made a heavy metal version of Let it Go for her daughter who was crazy about that song.
thank you so much for this comment!
Hi Cristina 👋great job with your reaction to Ghost Love Score from NightWish and Wow you have the must Beautiful eyes and also have a incredible voice your self.😊❤️ Welcome to the world of Symphonic Rock and the sound your hearing is called a Floorgasom.
Great reaction! I'm sure there are many comments suggesting other Nightwish songs, so I'll just say if you enjoyed this, you're in store for deep library of amazing songs and vocal performances.
Thank you for shining a light on this epic piece and performance! Insightful analysis, really enjoyed your thoughts and reactions.
How many styles can Floor perform? All of them. There is an actual choir and orchestra being used, the Metro Voices and London Symphony. There really isn't any other band like them. Excellent reaction! Subbed and waiting for more Nightwish 😁 Much love from the NW army in New York 🤗
One of the best reactions I have seen. Not non-stop stopping... maybe talking in wrong moments, but that's first time so :D
But when stopping no brabbling around, just pure short analysis.
Perfect! :)
Ah you are now blessed by The Vocal Valkyrie Floor Jansen. Floor knows how to command an audience and makes you feel her words while she is singing.
If you choose to do the Nightwish journey get ready for an amazing trip 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Please keep up with the Nightwish journey. They are all amazing, and they have more than 1 exceptional singer
I honestly don't understand how people still haven't heard about Floor Jansen. Especially when you do something music related.
Anyway great video, straight to the point, not using to many words like so many other youtubers do. And I would love to hear you cover this song your voice sounds awesome
Floor our Queen ❤
Nightwish fan since 2004 here 🖤
Welcome to Nightwish amazing musicians and the a great Floor Jansen on vocals please do more I enjoyed your professional breakdown of the vocals.💙🔥👏
All I can add is that anything Floor sings, I'm in for because I know that no matter what the style, it will be GREAT!
Love this. The look on her face. Amazed and astonished
I just got a huge grin seeing Christina be impressed with Floor's vocals just 3 minutes in, knowing that Floor is only at about 20% of her power out of the gate. 😁😄 Christina's in for it.
...and as expected, the vocal coach succumbs to the Floorgasm, mouth agape, frozen in time and space during the top note @ 12:14. ❤ Love to see it.
Hahhaha, Nightwish Army surely made It's presence known! Embrace this moment, the first bit of your epic journey of Nightwish Music.
Good reaction Cristina. Your description of Floor's use of Opera is spot on. Ghost Love Score is the doorway to many excellent songs and vocal experiences from Floor. The bassist, Marko, is an exceptional singer as well. Follow Gabriel's post for more great music from Nightwish.
It is always fun to see a vocal coach respond to hearing Floor sing for the first time, First seconds are always a combination of 'wait what?' and smiles... to slowly turn into amazement and 'this is how you do it' as the song progresses 🙂
For me one of the greatest live performances of all time not just from Goddess Floor but the whole band absolutely killed it.Would love to have been there.
Your dogs knows their stuff 😅 What a great reaction. Thank you!
Keep going down the symphonic metal rabbit hole. Discover Floor, Simone, Tarja, Adrienne, Lori and all these wonderful women who have graced our ears for a decade or two now.
I think seeing your reactions to these and you in awe, really shows how amazing and diverse music is and appreciation for the art
I really enjoyed your commentary. We in Australia have really been deprived of Nightwish, Floor and the other wonderful artists of this genre from Europe. They, and Floor in particular, have really captured my musical heart in the last few years. Please keep bringing your expert commentary to them. I'll be along for the ride.
If you liked that vocal performance, I think you would be just as impressed with her performance of ‘Ever Dream’ from the same concert - a song that Floor admitted is the most testing of her vocal ability, though you would never know it with how effortlessly she performs it - incidentally, you get to hear their (former) bassist and backing vocalist Marko Hietala sing on that one, and that guy has some serious pipes too!
Have you listened to Ever Dream cover made my Soulspell? Daysa Munhoz sings it beautifully
This right here is why we watch reaction videos. ❤ LOL. To watch people slowly become speechless at this group and Floors voice. So glad you enjoyed it. I hope you continue on this journey into Nightwish, you will not be sorry. Each one is so amazingly talented and the songs you can listen to over and over again and they never get old.
New subscriber here, Nightwish Army, Florida division.
Agreed. Especially when we know what’s coming. Lol. Never gets old.
@@Pymander 💯 agree. Never gets old, especially when you know the songs by heart and you know what I mean and you know that if they’re truly into it, what’s about to happen to them. Never ever gets old. ❤️
@@RUSHed-2112 Totally. How long have you been a fan? I just discovered them last June and am slightly obsessed! NW Army Philadelphia division.
Hi Cristina, welcome to the world of Nightwish. I’m a senior citizen, I’ve heard Nightwish live 3 times here in Maryland, USA. Floor is one of the best singers I’ve ever heard, and I’ve heard most of the greats in several genres. Her versatility is amazing. I see that Gabriel has been here. And I agree with a prior commenter that you’d really like Dead Boy’s Poem live in Buenos Aires, and the recent Phantom Of The Opera with Henk Port in Amsterdam. New sub. And I have a shirt that says Dogs Make Me Happy, Humans Make My Head Hurt. 😊
I need to get myself that shirt 😂 thanks for watching!
Near the end you right away noticed that, after "oooooh" in head voice she continued with "my fall" - belted. And that the exit "for you" is almost undoable at that volume/vibrato. Great reaction!
Floor hasn't met a genre that she couldn't master. From growling to opera and everything in between. Amazing talent. 😊🤘
Any Ghost love score reaction that comes by I watch, but rarely I like it that good that I subscribe. Yes, you got a new subscriber 😊
Loved your reaction. New sub. Nightwish is considered a symphonic metal band, but they perform Celtic folk to heavy, chunky metal, and everything in between. I really enjoy their music videos, but they absolutely excel in live performances. They have an amazing rapport with their audiences, each musician is top shelf, and you can tell they perform as a family who really love what they do. Every song is different and often surprising. I would love to see you react to other groups as well, but please include Nightwish regularly in your reactions - you will make a lot of people very happy.
I've been a Nightwish fan most of my life. Love they picked up Floor. I have watched this performance so many times. She is legend.
welcome to the fantastic symphonic metal universe of Nightwish Band, their live performances are some of the things that come so close to epic that they get to be mythical and of course Floor Jansen, queen of the stage and goddess of music, she can sing anything in any musical style she wants (WARNING! her voice, her stage presence, her charisma, in one word: her "spell" is highly addictive).
this concert (wacken 2013) is incredibly epic and deserves to be watched and reacted entirely, song by song, in particular I suggest these three songs: "song of myself", "storytime" and "ever dream"
this performance of "ghost love score" is one of the three best performances of the nightwish band, together with "the poet and the pendulum" from 2015 concert at the london wembley arena and "the greatest show on earth" from 2015 concert in tampere - finland (actually there is a fourth best performance: "dead boy's poem" from the 2018 concert in buenos aires).
You have only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg, from the horizon when it comes to what this band can do. You are now on the precipice of one of my favorite rabbit holes in music, I hope to see your journey continue. I see General Gabriel has already posted the "monster".
Nightwish Army Arizona Division checking in. 🇺🇲🌵
This song being performed live in the crowd is something else, Floor Jansen is something else entirely otherworldly in fact, this is really just the tip of the iceberg, full opera? It's coming, death metal growls, yep they're coming as well, belting, metal screams notes that seem to never end, storytelling on a biblical scale, free flowing tears, laughter and wonder it all awaits you should you decide to continue watching Nightwish, oh and Floor isn't the only who can sing in the band
Nightwish is Finish, Floor is Dutch and lives in Sweden, country side so really quiet.
She studies at one of the Dutch Rock academies, and a classical study on top of that. That gives her the partly classical sound and the ridiculous voice control.
On Dutch tv she did a wonderful version of phantom of the opera, with Henk Poort. I would recommend that version.
Great job on the NIGHTWISH reaction. It's nice to hear a reaction from a real voice coach. There are about 5 real voice coaches that give an honest reaction. GLS is the most reacted song on UA-cam. NIGHTWISH's first singer Tarja sang this song in a more operatic style. Floor Jansen is my favorite NIGHTWISH singer's. I hope that you do more NIGHTWISH videos from the same concert. I'm sure a lot more people reacting to your video will request more NIGHTWISH.
Thanks so much, that's really nice to hear!
@@cristinamrusso please react to Jinjer next!!
Great reaction. Thank you for sharing Nightwish with the world.❤️
There are a few Nightwish moments that I never get tired of watching people experience for the first time, and Floor's top note in this track is one of them. Given that it's been (checks notes) over 24 hours, I'll assume that Gabriel and the rest of the Nightwish Army have already been here to recommend all the other moments I never get tired of seeing.
Couple of fun facts: Keyboard player Tuomas Holopainen composes the vast majority of Nightwish's tracks and cites Hans Zimmer as one of his major influences. Nightwish's first DVD even featured an instrumental track that incorporates a bit of Hans Zimmer's music from Crimson Tide.
And that is a choir you're hearing in the mix, but a pre-recorded one. Most Nightwish albums include orchestral and choral elements. Many of Nightwish's tracks have even had separate releases of orchestral versions without the band's parts. In their live shows, those orchestral and choral elements are mixed in as backing tracks.
I liked how you picked up everything Floor can do and commented enough to give your perspective, but not too much to take us away from the song.
Great voice as well. I hope to watch a couple songs more from Nightwish in your channel!
Great reaction, well to the amazing world of Nightwish and Floor Jansen. Totally recommend you check out more of their music and you can see that Floor can do any style of singing she wants and do it perfectly.
Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist, leader, and songwriter for Nightwish is a great fan of Hans Zimmer.....check Floor and Nightwish doing their metalized "Phantom of the Opera" with Henk Poort, where she's hits a D6, holding it for 12 full seconds without going vibrato.....the music majors from college, with major talent, are gravitating into metal.....listen to "Awakening" by Unleash the Archers, and their vocalist Britney Slayes
It was great watching you be entirely enchanted by Floor gor the first time ❤
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!!
Get on the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic.
Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
Great reaction for this masterpiece!
Thank you for posting and hope you keep on posting some Nightwish stuff because it`s a very good band. Floor Jansen (the vocalist) is also a vocal coach, although I doubt if she still has the time to practice as a coach.
Yupp. My soul leaves my body everytime at the end there
Every reaction video that I come across for this, I skip ahead to the "Redeem me into childhood and show me myself without a shell" part and let it ride to the big one. Then, I go back and watch the whole thing. I love seeing everyone's reaction to the big one
Me22222 😂
Those pipes are Wine bottle holders, for Tuomas his wine 🤘🤘🤘
Hi Cristina, greetings from UK
Thank you for reacting to this. As a vocal coach and opera singer I thought you might like to hear it 😊
Floor is simply the best in the world. I know no one else that can bring me to tears like that.
I absolutely Love Floors singing. You also have a great voice Cristina, I can tell you are excellent at your role.
Great reaction. Not only did I subscribe but listened to you sing a couple of pieces as well. VERY nice voice, style, and delivery!
Thanks so much!
You just heard the tip of the iceberg of her vocal versatility!
Welcome to the rabbit hole which is Nightwish🥰
YESSS!!! So happy you reviewed this!
1:55 The way Floor says 'moonlight' feels very similar to the colour of your eyes. Gorgeous, on another level. Its the details of it
Floor Jansen & The Red Limo String Quartet - Energize Me .
Acoustic , No mic , no audio amplification , no audio tricks
simply 100% PURE Floor-Power .
this is from before the Nightwish period.
this is a song from Floor's old band After Forever.

Great reaction , Tuomaqs the keyborder is a fan of Hans Zimmer. btw Floor Jansen is a vocal coach too!
I’ve fallen down a rabbit hole of watching vocal coaches react to this epic ass video. It’s some of the most amazing music I’ve ever heard. That woman OWNS the stage unlike anyone I’ve ever seen. Unreal
Most singers sing what they can - Floor sings what she wants. 'Nuff said.
Hello Christina! I see Gabriel has been here....her has the List and the Lore. Floor Jansen is the Valkyrie Goddess singing. Vocal coaches love her, and she has also been a vocal coach. She can pretty much sing anything she wants to, as far as anyone can tell. There's a video of her singing a phone book and nailing it. She has some solo stuff on her UA-cam channel, and, of course, we all love seeing her with Nightwish. Keep going! There's worlds here you haven't seen yet.
Great reaction... Looking for more NW... Gabriel will be here soon enough...
Hi Cristina. Greetings from the Nightwish Army (Sydney, Australia Division) 🇦🇺🤘. Great reaction to this awesome band. I am glad the dogs liked it too. Welcome to you all to the Nightwish rabbit hole. You are in for quite a ride as you continue to explore this great bunch of performers. You will get a lot of support from the Nightwish Army. You are in good hands. People like Gabriel really know their stuff. Just follow the suggestions and you cannot go wrong. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. Look forward to your next reaction
Look up the episodes of a Dutch show called De Beste Zangers where Floor is lead guest, you’ll be equally blown away.❤
Great reaction! It's always super interesting to hear a vocal coach/vocalist comment on Floor's abilities, vocals, and techniques! I've subbed for the ride! Gabriel has already visited you, so I won't get redundant lol! You can follow his list, or you can pick and choose as you wish. You won't go wrong no matter what you choose from Nightwish next! I, personally, would suggest Storytime Live from Wacken 2013 (same show as this one) for your next one, but I'm good with any of their songs! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and expertise, and thanks for sharing your musical journey with us! Sending you & yours (fur babies too) greetings and blessings from me and mine in The States! Nightwish Army, Alabama Division, present and accounted for 🤘🏻🩷
Thankyou! I will pass the love onto the fur babies!
I love watching vocal coaches and opera singers react to Floor for the first time and get their minds blown. Next stop should be another Nightwish song "The Poet and the Pendulum". Another song I would recommend would be "Awakening" by Unleash the Archers. Try the Full Band Playthrough Video.
Floorgasm is an amazing thing (Floor hitting those high notes). And there is a lot of it in many of their songs. I am listening to Nightwish for 20 years now and its insane what she can do. She is the best female vocalist in metal today no doubt.
Your reaction faces are priceless! I had tons of fun watching this, I've watched dozens of ghost love score reactions and this is definitely one of my favorite ones!
