![ROADIE REACTIONS | "Nightwish - Ever Dream (Live)" | [DOUBLE REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4X-hG1ihSRw/mqdefault.jpg)
It's amazing how the Floor era Nightwish just makes you smile, even before they started the song. That is charisma.
everyone compares and so do I.
I think its normal to compare. You just said who you prefer with this number and that's Floor. I agree with that. ♣
Never good to compare but it's done. So here we go. I'm not sure but when Tuomas put his face in his hands at the beginning might just be because he and the rest of the band knew that this was Tarja's last concert with Nightwish. The thing is that Tarja didn't know that. Tuomas and Tarja were childhood friends so it was a really hard moment for him.
Oh, of course. Let's all feel pity for the responsible of Tarja's shameful dismissal. A hard moment for him xD
@@rottenkreature1041 Whatever
@@rottenkreature1041 What.. She was going to leave anyway? Why waste the time and energy on someone who doesn't want to be there?
@@rottenkreature1041 Yeah, well you've picked an appropiate handle.
Why is it never good to compare? That’s just human nature you’re trying to deny there. Everyone has their favorite band/singer/song which is by comparison to all other bands/singers/songs.
I’d agree with you that it’s never good to trash anyone’s art, as it’s just that-art... but that’s not what he did here. It’s not what most Nightwish fans do. Tarja is a scoop of vanilla ice cream, which is wonderful... but Floor is the whole sundae with vanilla ice cream, bananas, nuts, sprinkles, whipped cream, and hot fudge! Lol.
They are both great, but the power and energy in the Wacken version really does it for me. Maybe it's the mix but it also feels like Marko is not holding back on his belts on the Wacken version either.
Forget about a Floorgasm. Looks like she gave you the Floorgiggles 😄 Tarja was good, but Floor is practically a superhero. She even looks indestructible.
Floorgasm
I think this is what a lot of people don't get. It's not that Tarja was bad, she was great... not good- GREAT. That said, Floor is a Goddess. She's just on another plane of existence. It's almost like comparing Usain Bolt to a Cheetah. It's just not fair. I think all the time how lucky we all are that Tuomas and Floor found their way to each other, and we get to be the benefactors of that by-chance pairing...
And Marko and Floor were made for each other!
I think you got it backward. Actually in this song Floor looks like she is giving all she has and at some point it even sounds "too much". Tarja is singing a song written for her, she is at home, she sings super high effortlessly. What makes Floor's version better (in my opinion) is the passion she burns and the way she always knows how to sing it like it's her song. Overall, Floor has a much wider range of different styles and voices, while Tarja IS a Cheetah in her own category (lyric/operatic singing).
*tries very hard not to look at the comments*
So now that we've established that Marko is the safest answer to 'who is the superior Nightwish vocalist' - Bryan, seriously, you need to appease the masses and react to something like "High Hopes".
Also, if there ever is a day I'm not moved by that moment of Tuomas' vulnerability in the End of an Era show, please check my pulse because I'm probably dead.
So Marko is actually the best singer in Nightwish? 👨🚀
Always has been 👨🚀 🔫👨🚀
@@justdave9610 Been saying it all along
I have the utmost respect for both Tarja and Anette. They are honestly both fantastic singers. Floor Jansen, on the other hand. . . she is just a powerful force that touches the soul. I am a singer myself, and she blows me away. Her technique is as flawless as a human can be while carrying emotion that is unbelievable. I am a grown man, and she has made me cry probably a dozen times. I will never figure out how she does it.
In Tarja's version, Marco measures himself because he doesn't want to overwhelm the sound ... With Floor they both can belt together at full power and it's amazing to see.
Marco never had to measure himself with Tarja. Tuomas specifically looked for a Male singer who had the voice powerful enough to match Tarja's, so he found Marco. What are you on about?
You are absolutely right, man! Good point!
👍🤘
tarja version is far better sorry, but the emotional and powerfull voice that tarja gives to the song u cant find it in floor nor annete versions, its just not there as with tarja is.
@@gutzimmumdo4910
Yeah right ✅ we all believe you not.
@@kimberlyh.1090 Yes exactly. It's obnoxious when people want to insult Tarja that way. Sorry but no, Tarja is one of the best singers around, with a voice quality and power few have. If you can't see/hear that then you need to listen to more of her Nightwish era songs. Or listen to her solo stuff, either way.
Nightwish army reporting from Athens 🇬🇷
I'm really enjoying your reactions, man. And, yes, you are absolutely right. There are...mm..medium singers, there are really good singers (including Tarja) and there is FLOOR! The one and only Floor. How can anyone Not be in love with her voice, her presence on stage. She absolutely dominates anyone watching her performances.
PS, Jukka is really on fire 🔥 during the entire song, especially on that amazing last minute. What a drummer! We really miss him!
Floor😍😍😍😍
There is room for all three singers in my world :)
Floor makes me want to grow my hair out and carry a fan in front of me at all times
...
in leather.
What;s holding you?
Pictures? Lol just kidding. I'd get that same feeling if I had hair...
The one and only Floor's Floor Fan !...
Same
Thank you for this reaction. You express exactly how I feel about this.
Tarja for me.Unique and so emotional
Floor not being Unique and emotional? I saw a lot of people cry during her performance :) Tarja is great, but singing the whole repertoire full opera, gives it a feeling of one big voice wave. To be honest, Floor is in my opinion even a better opera singer (you can find her singing operaa aria;s on you tube) Something magical about her voice. Tarja sounds much better these days and I love her solo albums. But for Nightwish I think Floor is a blessing. They could not have made human nature with Tarja, sorry.
@@monicacarolina6480 why why why why don't let someone have her/his opinion? Why???
Taking Lord Byron's quote (as used on the Nature side of Human. :||: Nature) with some poetic freedom:
"I love not Tarja the less, but Floor more…"
Imagine being there and hearing that voice echoing through the open air.
Both versions make me so happy. I am SO BLESSED to have been a Nightwish fan all these years.
Props for having the courage to give your honest opinion about Floor vs Tarja. Most reacters refuse to compare them, because they are too worried about trying to please both camps.
Hahaha, my reaction was just like yours then i heard Floor the first time. A big smile all over my face
I discovered Nightwish during the Tarja era and loved the songs of that era ... in small doses. Floor, with her versatility and story-telling ability and sheer skill at touching my heart over and over and over again, is the one that really made those wonderful songs come fully to life for me.
I'm 56 now from belgium btw, i loved Tarja but for me after some time it was like ok nothing new , i was less interested until Floor came in, for me that was the missing link, she was born for Nightwish it was her destany , i listen every day it became the best therapy for me after my hughe depression when my girlfriend left me last year after 8 years togehter (i lost my wife to in 2004 from cancer) i stil recover but yes Nightwish and specialy Floor saved my life until today , sometimes music is more then only ...music
in floor we trust
Others can hold her beer.
An onslaught of Belting Power of the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal. She is unbelievable, so much power, clarity of voice in an open air festival. Hail Nightwish
come on, let's talk about emotions, energy, clear vocals, timing, voice control, versatality, stage presence, chemistry .......do we have to say more?
ja, voice fits better with the song...... Tarja, Anette, Floor is like; good, better, BEST!!!! (overtreffende trap)
You have to hear PHANTOM OF THE OPERA with Tarja.!
We all know about the one Phantom of the Opera with Tarja.
@@mikebreden8718 So?
I couldnt agree more! 👍
In a interview someone ask floor why she never loose her breath , and her answer was " i was blessed with the lungs of a deep sea diver " .greetings from Portugal.
Agreed. Never compare. All three NW front women have made their independent contributions to the band over the decades. They are all such unique talents that blend so well together, regardless of era. Good stuff today!
Nice reaction. Tarja will always be important for Nightwish but Floors performances just bring the goosebumps in waves!
I feel Tuomas his pain so much in this song...knowing it was the last time they would perform with her (she got fired the next morning, due to different issues, everybody has different thoughts about it)
Yuka was having a HUGE migraine this night, poor guy (insominia was the reason why he could not continu with Night Wish, but he is still very involved with them as their manager)
Floor is unbelivable. This voice. Omfg
I have compared Tarja's voice to organic 70% chocolate. Which, if you're a chocoholic like me, is pretty amazing. And that moment near the beginning when Tuomas had to stop and take a few seconds--- remember, he and the guys KNEW that this was the LAST time she would perform with them. He HAD to be in pain.
Floor's version, the Wacken 13....it was my FIRST NW song, the FIRST time I heard them. And I was DONE, immediately. GONE. They CUT me, I will bleed forever.
I remember reading a post about Marco mentioning that he used to hold back a bit, so he didn’t dominate the vocals, which is something he doesn’t worry about anymore.
Yes, I totally agree with you.
Floor what a woman.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Great reaction. All these years later, I can still dip back into a Tarja song and feel blessed by her voice, but I will say that the ones Floor has since covered I prefer to hear Floor sing, because that's what I'm used to now. Ones Floor has not done in concerts (at least that I've not heard) I still enjoy in their original form. That's also true with Anette. But when Floor takes a song, she owns it forever.
There are a lot of songs where I've grown fond of Floor's version, but...
No amount of coping will ever get me to prefer Floor's version of Deep Silent Complete or The Siren over Tarja's. Just not gonna happen.
The same goes with Anette for Amaranth and a couple of the Imaginaerum songs (namely Storytime.)
There are just a couple of songs uniquely suited for a specific's singer's style.
I heard this song when I was 14 and it became my favorite. Tarja's dark and powerful voice stole my heart 👑💜... I like Floor but it gives the song another feeling.
Yep! I feel sorry for people who do not know Nightwish begining. Because this band is phonomenat those days. Tuomas makes those lyrics absolutly beautiful to his muse Tarja. Tuomas makes them it going Tarjas vocals like match made in heaven, Tarjas voice like out of this world. And that emotional power those songs is absolutly everything. I watching end of era allmost everyday because in those videos u can see that, everything❤
Great reaction!! Good job Bryan!! more this kind stuff!
after the bridge,Jukka opens up the 50 caliber machine guns,energy to awesome.
You hear Tarja and it's like wow, she is amazing, and she is at what she does. She has a tremendous operatic voice style. Then you hear Floor's version and it's like OMG unbelievable. Floor's voice is just so versatile, I think she can sing absolutely anything and make it song good. Then if you watch her personal UA-cam channel she is the most humble person. She is just really awesome.
I don't like all the fuss about comparisons. It's perfectly natural and you are entitled to give your opinion. That is what we are here for after all. You were complimentary about both, what's the issue with having a preference. I love them both depending on the song. But Floor is more versatile. That's a fact. 😁👍
Well said
Floorever!!! Floorless victory... Fatality!!!
When you watch videos like this you see how consistent Emppu (the guitarist) is, his solo was exactly the same in 2005 and 2013 :)
Tarja sings the song, Floor lets you feel the song!
*giggling* i HaVe wOrDs i PrOmiSe
Go ahead and compare away my good sir, it would be weird not to have a preference.
This is my new favorite Everdream react
I love both singers. Both are so incredible.. i got into NW in 2004 with Tarja, her voice attracted me . So yes, she holds a spot in my heart. But NW is Floor now. Tarja is great solo. Try Into the sun. Ive never understood the whos better argument. I like Ever Dream with both singers. I just get more emotion with Floor. I get a magical feel with Tarja. But i do like Tarja on this. Both are great. :) Tarja is best on Sleeping Sun, and Phantom.
Floor has not done Phantom with Nightwish. I do think she manage to go higher than Tarja on the version with Henk though. Would love a version with Marco
I'm in the 'love them both for different reasons' camp. Both are amazing, but to be honest, Floor has made me cry more times than my ex-wife. Tarja was a force to be reckoned with, but Floor is a force of nature...
When you listen to both, back to back, like you just did... the conclusion you arrived at is inescapable! Great reaction, thanks.
Just goes to show, especially back to back, how Tarja helped kickstart the Nightwish sound and brought forth symphonic metal as a genre to the world, but how Floor has taken that sound and brought it to an entirely new level of emotion and range.
Its not fair to compare..Floor is just super special!!💞 ask Lady Gaga wink wink!!
Floor can sing anything she wants, but there are a few songs that were written for Tarja and nobody, not even Floor can match her. Ever Dream, Slaying The Dreamer, Sleeping Sun are Tarja songs. Specially in this one Floors sounds pretty much gritty.
Great stuff dude :)
Tarja version forever
Floor. The queen....and The drummer.......wow....
The emotion that Floor sings with entice a reaction that Tarja couldnt.
Tarja... Diosaaa!
They are both really talented singers with uniqe voices! Floor is definitely more versatile, but Tarja holds a place in my heart because she was the singer of Nightwish when I found them.
Floor did that so effortlessly gorgeously that there is no ambiguity left about the winner.
Wacken 2013 was when Floor proved that she could move Nightwish is more directions. Toumas could now stretch his wings and write anything and she could sing it.
Well, being a fan since Tarja's days, I prefer her version. Obviously, I like Floor's as well, but it's too "screamed" for me.
Agree
Tarja is very good but for me, Floor is the next level. Perhaps because her technic deserve emotions ? Her tone hit every time something in my soul.
I guess you know who is the drummer Chester Thompson. So take a look at this: "Chester Thompson Drum Cam - Drums, drums & More Drums (live 2004)". Magic !
My personal preferences of these 12 songs
Floor: Ever Dream, Ghost Love Score, Song of Myself, Storytime, Romanticide, Wish I Had an Angel
Tarja: Sleeping Sun, End of All Hope, Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan, The Siren, Wishmaster, Dark Chest of Wonders
Dark chest and sleeping sun are the two that floor just sounds wrong singing.
Agreed.
in all music and even movies the classic ones ,always the best , The golden era
It has been a VERY long time since I have seen such talented people! And Floor is a 6 foot Viking goddess of song! Keep rockin’ it out! ❤️🤘🏻
Imagine how much money Nightwish saves because of corona from Emppus guitar picks.
THIS. If I could ask their roadies one thing, it would be: how many picks does Emppu have allotted for one show? XD
@@MissIssay Must be one truck at least. :)
That made me laugh out loud. Woke up the cat lol
@@MissIssay Imagine all the money he is saving. Probably a shitload.
Floor does it very well, and brings the power, but I love the original versions too (and I'm a fairly new fan myself). There's plenty of room to love both. I listen mostly to the studio albums, I basically only watch or listen to live when I watch these reactions, and I've seen so many reactions I never feel a need to listen to them on my own, lol. So I have a affinity for the original versions and the original voice on them. So many feel like you have to live only in the present and there's no room to enjoy anything that came before, or anything from their studio albums for that matter. Reactors follow the comments and rarely dig much deeper than Wacken and a few other more recent live shows. For me its the music, who's singing is secondary.
You want to see young, try anything from "From Wishes to Eternity".
Couldn't dissagree more..... I find the albums, over-produced, and bloated..... I pretty much only listen to live nightwish. Unles a new album comes out....... floor is just better..... although I have no idea how they will perform this new album live, as it's extremely difficult vocally.
Don’t compare. Love the Now. And that is Floor 😉😜
Why not? Same song different singer so yes you can compare! It hes been done for ages in musicals and movies.
Yup.....
Listen to hear before nightwish! 😲
She keeps developing!
Revamp
After forever
BTW within temptation, Ayreon and Epica are EPIC as well 😉
Floor. No contest. Her voice and stage presence are just spot on for Nightwish.
Agreed. Tarja has two singing styles whereas with Floor we've lost count somewhere around 20. And IMO, Tarja tried too hard to have the stage presence. Floor has it naturally.
@@janitor6669 Agree 100%! Tarja seems to have her lane and doesn't veer from it. I found Nightwish back in the days she was still with the band and I walked away because I was just tired of everything sounding the same. Not saying she isn't incredibly talented, just that I don't enjoy listening to an operatic style ... has always sounded "stuffy" to me. Floor just adapts to the song, doing what is needed to elevate it where Tuomas envisioned it. The entire bands sounds as though the chains were taken off when Floor started singing. My opinion, and I'm certainly not disparaging anybody else's - each all have our taste and appreciate what sounds best to our ear ... and we all have different ears. Thank goodness.
@@janitor6669 hahahahaha bullshit
It doesn't matter who sang a song before, when Floor gets her vocal cords on it, she makes it hers.
drummer is the best
It was Marko in both videos, and we all know that Marko the best singer of Nightwish 😎
If you want a good laugh you should listen to their 2nd singer Annette attempting to sing this! 😂
Oh, that's just cruel. I wish I didn't agree, 'cause now I'm cruel too.
Exact and precise , nice reaction ! I agree with your concusions , Greetings from nwse Sweden
Floor is another level🤘🤩
Yes, lower level. 😉
Floor gives soooo much more power 👩🏻🎤❤️❤️
but also more fragile vocals...she is just amazing
It's not even fair to compare anyone to Floor. If she covered any other artists songs she would blow them away too
You should watch Floor doing Lady Gaga's "Shallow" in Beste Zangers 2019.
@@veronicaue180 Do you think Lady Gaga has seen the video and thought to herself "Oh Shit!"??
Whaddya mean "if"? She does, and she does. Check 'Beste Zangers' for proof.
Tarja was my first love.. but Floor is my strongest and everlasting love. :)
Nightwish Only three US cities scheduled for 2021 Lowell, MA 10-7-2021 Tickets on sale now.
Floor's voice flows so effortlessly. She's consistent. You always know she's going to deliver. No need to worry. That's not the case with all singers, especially live. And her stage charisma!
The difference in the concert goers tells the whole story! Floor was brand new to NW, jumped right in, looks like she has been there forever. Don’t feel bad, I feel the same way. Floor did a TV show called Beste Zangers, 2019, you might want to review her versions of the likes of Shallow, & Phantom of the Opera, plus others. I like your reviews, I guess because you are as delighted with Foot as I am.
Tarja & Floor & Marko :) Kiitos from Finland :)
Loved your watching both versions of the song. I agree there are songs I prefer Tarja, even a few I like Annette, but most, admittedly, Floor steals the show. Of course the band has also matured considerably too.
Hahaha hands down Floor Jansen everytime. Never been a fan of Annette's or Tarja's vocals ( Don't get me wrong they are both talented singers they just aint for me :D) She took this song and exploded it to maximum level. The other guys in the band doing there thing also! man such a banger!
All Nightwish singers have been very talented but at the same time also very different.
Imo Floor is the most suitable and best Front Lady for Nightwish. With her versatility and mindblowing talent she gives Tuomas free hands for composing almost anything what inspires him. Tuomas knows Floor delivers. And this is very important to this kind of Genius Master Composer.
And finally as a positive thing I have noticed that since Floor, Nightwish is more united, like a Family 🤘❣️
Comparing is futile, Floor is the best female vocalist on the planet.
In your reaction to "Consign to Oblivion" by Epica you mentioned that you would to hear and watch any playthrough by Epica´s drummer Arien van Weesenbeek. I would like to inform you that Epica uploaded a playthrough to the band´s first single (and a music video) for the upcoming album only a few hours ago. So you can react to that music video and then to the playthrough, if you so desire. It is only an idea.

Do this with slaying the dreamer, the siren or wishmaster
I love Floor, but I think all of those goes for Tarja by clear margin.
Why?
its fun
Oh, love those songs (when sung by Floor).
Surprised you don't have the go-to Floor reaction with Ghost love score ^^
Was a fan of nightwish before she joined but after...another level. She has so much range / variation to her voice.
Ok, because we are picking our favorites once again, Tarja for me. Nothing better than good old Nightwish sound. Floor is incredible, and I can surely understand if someone prefers her, but I don't like the ending with her, because it starts to sound shouting. Otherwise it would be about tie, depending the mood I'm having.
And Floor doesn't make everything better. "The Siren" she did was actually pretty bad (only song where I think she didn't do a good job).
"Wishmaster" and "Slaying The Dreamer", no way, Tarja takes those by clear margin.
More Tarja please
I think its always dangerous to compare. The reality is most like the singer they discovered Nightwish under. I came to be a nightwish fan because of the wacken concert so Floor was the singer and it was sometime before I ever heard the other two sing. If I had heard Tarja first I think I would have had loyalty to the original. I prefer Floor because thats who I started with. There is no doubt Tarja was a great singer, and to be fair Annette wasn't as bad as some will tell you, but to me Floor is just that extra special.
KIITOS Tuomas Holopainen, songwriter, composer :)
Jukka, killing it as always. I love his energy. Oh yeah, Floor, Tarja and Marco were amazing as well.
Amen...no mention from the drum based review?
„I just love her so much. She has not even done anything and I am like - ahhh Floor“ I could not have said it better, exactly how I feel about her 😅 Just seeing her touches me every time…
Empuu playes his signature EV-1 wich is based off of the ESP Horizon And Marco playes his Warwick Vampyre 4 string bass.
I agree, enough said. 🤘🔥
If you compared the two 15 years ago Tarja would come on top. But floor did a huge improvement over the years, she worked really hard.
