Dark Chest of Wonder (Wacken 2013 Live Version) 5. Yours is an empty hope (Wembly Live Version) 6. Noise (Official Live Video) And I could write down a lots of more cause they are all good af. Greetings from a Germany member of the Nightwish Army!
You said the magic words 'This is my favourite Nightwish song'. Be prepared to say this many times more. You asked the impossible question 'what are your favourite Nightwish songs'. There is literally no bad song. I am a Flooraholic, so the Floor Era is my territory. When I am forced to make the impossible choice of the ones you did not do yet: Wacken 2013 'Bless the Child' (Floor almost too late due to a 'zip problem' during a costume change); Wembley 2015 '7 Days to the Wolves' (Floor going wild with 'The Dutch Windmill'); Tampere 2015 'Weak Fantasy' (watch the facial expressions as always with Floor); Buenos Aires 2018 'I want my Tears back' (Floor going nuts with the audience); Hellfest 2022 'Shoemaker' (check the backstory); Amsterdam 2022 'The Phantom of the Opera' (Floor at top of her game yet again). Then there are of course the other 2 of the 'big 3' besides 'Ghost Love Score': Wembley 2015 'The Poet and the Pendulum' and Tampere 2015 'The Greatest Show on Earth'.
10 months before this Wacken(Vah-ken)festival, the band was partially thru their World Imaginarium Tour and had just parted with their second lead singer, Anette. At that time Floor was recovering from massive burnout, where she couldn't do anything. Tuomas, the keyboardist/composer/leader of Nightwish, called Floor who was in the Netherlands(at her sisters wedding) and asked her if she could fill in for the rest of the tour. Basically,"Could you learn the 20 song setlist in 48 hours and fly to Seattle, Washington?" Imagine the songs you have heard so far. The intricate melodies, and the lyrics. Now learn 20 of them in less than 48 hours. I first heard NW in 2020. That's when I "came for the music, and stayed for the lyrics." Tuomas is a storyteller, and uses poetic verses to tell those stories. It is one of the reasons why I love The Warning so much. Like Nightwish, TW songs have substance to the lyrics. You thought TW has an amazing Army, just wait. NWA is crazy!!...sometimes in a bad way(like when you react the wrong video). They are very passionate. NW gives me chills and goosebumps. TW does too plus tears. I get misty from Floor's voice, but TW makes me cry. It is another fun adventure. Buckle up!
French Division of the Nightwish Army reporting for duty. We salute you Ashlena, very much enjoyed your reaction. We will be with you all along your Nightwish ride. Have a great one!
Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins - Tuomas, the keyboard player and musical mastermind, loves movies and metal! My favourites? "Ghost Love Score (live)", "The Poet and The Pendulum (live)", "The Greatest Show on Earth (live)", "Dead Boys Poem (live)", "Fantasmic Part 3 (live)".... um, just make it ALL of them! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996.
This is our Valkyrie Goddess for you. And you witnessed first hand a "Dutch Windmill" , and to finish you off, The Operatic "Cruise Missile" !!!! Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bull whip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Awesome tune , although it is kind of a pop/rockish sound (originally sung by Anette, the second singer of Nightwish), but Floor gave it soooo much POWER !!! Including this "Operatic" part, what was originally done by children's choir because vocal limitations on their second singer (Great singer also, I might add), but Floor has none of that "Limit". Nightwish lyrics are often a bit interpretive, and not as "straight forward" as many other bands, because Tuomas ( The Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen: founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish.) prefers people to put their own interpretations and life experiences into the lyrics. you connect with songs on a personal level when there is something there that relates to things you have gone/are going through, and you may even find new connections later on in life when you have gone through other big events/emotions. there might be songs you are quite indifferent about (oh, nice song) and then you go through something big and all of a sudden it makes you break down in tears because now you relate to something in the lyrics you didn't before, and see it from a whole new perspective. imagination and life experiences are powerful, and Tuomas has great appreciation of this. NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Great. Well, "Storytime " is my fave Nightwish song and you are my favorite new Nightwish reactor. #2 is "Dead Boys Poem" and I guess my #3 is "Weak Fantasy" (but they are literally all good.)
Top 3 #1 Dead Boy's Poem, live from Buenos Aires #2 Shoemaker, either the offical lyric video or live from Hellfest #3 7 Days To The Wolves, live from Wembley Honorable mentions... all of it, everything. If Tuomas wrote it and Floor sings it... you just can't go wrong. :)
2 & 3 I concur. They're ❤️ It's hard to find a bad song in their cataloque, and i know the first is favourite of many - but if we only the Best of the Best - imho.
For Floor and Nightwish something like this you would probably enjoy would be Elan. However I also think the band's version of Dead Boy's Poem with her in Buenos Aries is something you'd like. For Annette and the band Slow Love Slow from Monterey Jazz Festival.
My top 3 favoriet NW songs (not necessarily in this order: 1) Ghost Love Score (my intro to the band) 2) Ghost River (heavy and dark) And last but certainly by no means the least, the fabulous 3) Song of Myself (fantastic duo performance by Marco & Floor 🔥🔥
Everybody smiles reacting to this one. Song writer Tuomas ( keyboards ) is a major Disney fan. Congats on seeing the Time Traveler ( in the hat ). My fave 3...."Dead Boys Poem" Buenos Aires Concert. "Amaranth" from Wacken Concert and " Poet And The Pendulum" from Wembly Concert ( P A T P better knowing the songs history. Look forward to your next reaction. Be well.
Ashlena,dont feel too bad, there are several vocal coach reactors with over 3Million views from a single reaction to Ghost Love Score :) but I really like your attitude ,it's about the music and an amazing band like NW &singer like Floor that more people should know about ,cheers
NW are fantastic this show is awesome. You've done 2 of my favs already my 3rd is Dead boys Poem at Buenos Aires Floor's vocals are incredible in that one. Thank you Ashlena.
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!! The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Welcome aboard 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 every time . Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
Get ready because each new song may be in the running to become your favorite!! Everdream, Ghost River, and i freeking love Song of Myself!!, Romanticide, ......Heck, all of Wacken (pronounced "Vahken")...... but beyond this show you'll die over Dead boys Poem from Buenos Aires, Poet and the Pendulum from Wembley, Greateat Show on Earth from Tampere. If you want to see and hear pure Floor in a very intimate environment def react to Hows the Heart, acoustic version....... few if any singers on the planet could cover her vocals on this. And dont neglect checking out some solo Floor stuff like her 2019 performances on the Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers" ....... her duet of Phantom of the opera is just amazing, ..... as is her cover of Shallow...... Lady Gaga who??? ..... lol ....... Floor has a bunch of covers she did during covid that are amazing, as well as her solo band work. Floor live in Amsterdam is just killer too! Enjoy!!
Glad to see you get to this one, because I was pretty confident you'd like it. Although most reactors start with "Ghost Love Score" I think this is the better and "safer" introduction to Nightwish. Not everybody is ready for their more epic tracks right out of the gate, so I get you saying you wish you'd have seen this one first. Nothing like Nightwish live, so I'll list my top 3 performances, rather than just songs: 1. The Greatest Show on Earth (Tampere) 2. The Poet and the Pendulum (Wembley) 3. Song of Myself (Wacken 2013)
@@ashlenamusic I know it's funny but I wasn't kidding: The 'Time Traveler' IS indeed very popular and famous within the Nightwish Army. Unfortunately till now, his idendity is STILL unknown... ☹️
Hey Ashlena, you should always listen to Nightwish with the subs on if there are any. They always have deep lyrics that speaks to goodness and positivity. Tuomas (keyboards) is not only a fantastic composer but also an extremely skilled poet. He tells stories with words and music. Some are scientific others can be from old folklore and tales. There's always a meaning, a message, sometimes they're very personal and expressive. Very good that you had the lyrics next to the video. I didn't bother to hear them until 7 months ago, now I'm hooked. Shame on me for preventing myself from such joy. I've been an idiot..:)
Funny, that you did mention the man with the hat, that didn't clap and stand stil. He is our famous time traveler. He was send to a Bob Dylan concert in 1970 (even his clothes fits for that concert)but came by mistake in this concert and he is wondering wtf am i doing here😂
YES!!! Nightwish never disappoints. We want moore!! "Greatest show on eart"..."The poet and the pendelum" "Elan" are all great songs...and there are plenty moore....:-) Cheers from a finn in Sweden.
I'm thinking you would enjoy "I Want My Tears Back" from the 2018 concert in Buenos Aires. You will find that the live concerts, just has some more magical than the studio versions.
Poet and the Pendulum and Ghost Love Score are definitely my top 2 favorite Nightwish songs and my 3rd is a little more difficult but I Want My Tears Back is a very fun and energetic song whenever they perform it live and it's also catchy, like Storytime. I love that interlude/bridge as well, very beautiful and epic at the same time. I'm sure Storytime is an exhausting song to sing anytime, much less halfway through a show, but Floor killed it as always.
Favorite song... So far. There are at least a hundred more favorites still to come... My favorite... If you give me a week and I could probably narrow it down to my top 20.
Great again ❤ Thanks for this entertaining reaction video… hopefully you will do soooo much more… next could be: Everdream (same concert: Wacken 2013) ‼️🏆👍 Top 3 songs? That’s very difficult - when you did more of the Nightwish stuff you will understand… - The Greatest Show on Earth (it’s not the show itself - it’s more the message as always) - Nemo (Wembley 2015) - Everdream (Wacken 2013)
Thanks for your reaction! My favourite Nightwish songs are: Romantiside The greatest show on earth Last ride of the day (masters of rock) But aside of Nightwish I would encourage you to look at her solo singing, specially her performance at the Dutch tv show "beste zangers" she sings different styles in different languages (Dutch, English, German, Spanish) And ends with a great duet with a Dutch tenor.
NW Kentucky division reporting in! Thanks for the reaction! My favs: GLS, Ever Dream, Dead Boys Poem. Enjoy the journey, and be ready for your next “favorite” NW song ;) -Also, encourage you to check out Floor on Bestzangers from 2019, she is a spectacular person on top of an amazing singer!
Thank you for doing my request Story Time I added you to my subscription what to do next is hard since you did my top three Ghost Love Score, Story Time and ever Dream so to be a little different why not do my 4th favorite Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires 2018 as long as you do the other two big epic ones further down your journey which are are The Poet and The pendulum and The Greatest eat Show on Earth so you will have a better understanding of how great Nightwish is on your journey down the rabbit hole
favorite Nightwish song ... yes... for now ... until the next new song you never heard before ... ;) clicked me in for more... subbed, bells on and recommending your next "favorite" from this band, "ever dream" live wacken 2013 your turn !
There are few newer good quality live shows: Tampere, Wembley, Buenos Aires, Hellfest, Pinkpop, Deichbrand and lyric videos from latest album Human/ Nature. Hope you check out Nightwish video "Noise" from their latest album, there is something to react. My favourite song is Pan (today, Tomorrow it is maybe something else). Greetings from Finland.
Hi Ashlena, great reaction! If you want to hear more of Marko and Floor duet go with Romanticide. If you like it strong and powerful, go with Song of myself or Shudder before the beautiful. If you like rich masterpieces, try The greatest show on earth and The poet and the pendulum (history of the band is very important for this one, you can do some resarch or let the fans guide you). If you want to be haunted, go with Yours is an empty hope.
Hello again, ashlena. Welcome to the next step down our Nightwish rabbit hole. You have just scratched the surface of this great band's live performances. Keep them coming.
Top three Nightwish songs (in no order): Ghost Love Score Song of Myself Poet and the Pendulum 7 Days to the Wolves Greatest Show on Earth Tribal Shoemaker Yours is an Empty Hope Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean Sleeping Sun The Islander ……….
Hmm, that's funny. You have a stack of books there, one is entitled: 'Steven Tyler'. Yesterday I was in my local health food store here on Maui, and there was this guy, and he looked so familiar, but I just could not place him. It was Steven Tyler. Small world, LOL.
I can always tell when a reactor feels the rhythm of this song. The head goes side to side, instead of up and down. There is a very natural swing feel to this rhythm. A very common theme in NIghtwish lyricism is longing for the lost innocence of youth. Tuomas (Keys) is the main composer of the music and lyrics of Nightwish. He write lyrics in a very poetic style and his musical creations are heavily influenced by movie soundtracks and focused on emotional soundscapes. Hope to see you again very soon Ashlena.
If you like this, you'll like Ever Dream, Song of Myself, and Dark Chest of Wonders. My 3 (if you're asking today, the answer would be different tomorrow) are 7 Days to the Wolves, Ghost Love Score, and Poet and the Pendulum
You have a really infectious and great smile. Much love from Canada. :) Nightwish amazing. You should hear Epica and their song Sancta Terra with Floor from nightwish. Brilliant. Also Ghost River and Yours is an empty hope or Alpenglow are all great from Nightwish.
Thanks so much for getting around to Storytime, one of my favorites as well. I promise you will find many more favorites.... like the next one you listen to. I told you the Nightwish Army would blow up your channel. There were 82,000 people at that concert and Floor had not been with the band for very long. Good job and keep the Nightwish and The Warning coming
Thanks for this great reaction to my favorite band. There are a lot of highly suggested Nightwish songs, each one is different, each one worth a reaction. Many songs also have a deeper meaning. For "The Poet And The Pendulum" and The Greatest Show On Earth" I would like you to find out a little about the background before reacting. Versions with lyrics superimposed can also help. Very few reactors understand these great songs unprepared, it would be a shame and frustrating.
Depends on what impressed you most, and what path is your favourite. If you're more to hear operatic voice of Floor going along with some metal, I'd recommend Shoemaker. With some research about Eugene SHoemaker (Wiki will do fine). If you prefer to hear more melodic metal first, then probably Romanticide is the better choice. Lots of metal, some orchestral, Floor always shines so you'll find great vocals there as well.
Another awesome reaction Ashlena. I would recommend 'Everdream' from Wacken next. It has a very similar flavor to Storytime. I think that it will be your next favorite song 😁
6 days late to the party but I got you if you like this particular song. Ghost River Elan The Poet and the Pendulum Now that being said, I think Noise is something you'd like as well. Plus, they got a music video for it so if you want a new medium give that a try. Enjoy!
I am definitely a Floor fan, but I have a big soft spot in my heart for Marko, the bassist and male vocalist, also. My three favorite Nightwish songs are "The Islander" "Weak Fantasy" and "Song of Myself". The first song "The Islander" live at Tampere would be a great introduction to how good Marko is. I do, also, think that "Storytime" would be a much better introduction to Nightwish than "Ghost Love Score."
@@ashlenamusic Lyrics Honestly I got tired of the crap The way you treated me thinking you could take it back What'd you expect? For me to keep quiet? Honestly? Honestly That girl you're staring at she knows like everybody else does How you are cause I can never keep my mouth shut So don't you dare go near her drink Just test me babe I'm crazy She's not your girl or your next sin Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins She won't be on your arm or your hit list Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bitе your bullets Toxins Your toxins So tell me hun arе you regretting all your actions? Cause they're haunting you? Don't forget this interaction Cause you'll never do what you did to me to them Go ahead try it again She's not your girl or your next sin Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins She won't be on your arm or your hit list Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bite your bullets Toxins Your toxins She's not your girl or your next sin Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins She won't be on your arm or your hit list Cause your love's just a gun don't wana bite your bullets She's not your girl or your next sin Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins She won't be on your arm or your hit list Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bite your bullets Toxins
This band is a vehicle for the lyricism. There will be a reflection of the lyrical meaning in the music. There isn't metal for metals sake. So read the lyrics to get more of the layers.
Hi Ashlena. I was wondering if you've thought about reacting to Disturbed new song. It's a duet with Ann Wilson of Heart ❤️. Ann is 73 and Davivid is 50. Floor does her windmills and getscin position to sing without getting dizzy.
Ashlena. I noticed some have listed The Greatest Show on Earth and Poet and the Pendulum amongst their favourites. However, both these epic songs have a story behind them that is worth knowing before you react to them. I would suggest Romanticide next where you will get to know the second singer in the band, followed by Song of Myself and Ever Dream, both from the same Wacken festival. Narrowing favourites down to three is difficult but other than the 2 epic songs above I would say Romanticide, Song of Myself and a tie between Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires, Weak Fantasy from Tampere and 7 Days to the Wolves from Wembley. Of course tomorrow that may change depending what I have listened to.
@@ashlenamusic def wait a good while before doing Poet or Greatest Show, Wacken 2013 is a standard setting seminal event, every one of the 15 song set is Gold, then there is the "icing on the cake" sorta speak,the other things that make you wonder why is Floor not a Mega star in N.America ? with Floor's covid covers and the other pivotal event for her & NW : Beste Zangers 2019 a popular Dutch tv show filmed on Ibiza, where past & contemporary Dutch singers get together and sing eachothers songs(or songs that hold meaning to them) back to the orig artist but rearanged and reinterpreted ,Floor opened the show with the 1st song below and just blew everyone's mind,only two of the other singers knew who Floor was but none of them had heard her sing with such versatility,after the 8 day run of the show Floor's & NW's popularity soared,stadiums filled up and ticket sales shot up, Floor Jansen - Vilja Lied for Henk Poort(2019) + intro and outro (With eng subtitles) ua-cam.com/video/JN80AfHiUTY/v-deo.html Floor Jansen sings Shallow for Emma Heesters Beste Zangers 2019 ua-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/v-deo.html *with subtittles ua-cam.com/video/UWWbgYJ6Q6E/v-deo.html *Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019 : ua-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/v-deo.html Floor Jansen sings Mama for Samantha Steenwijk Beste Zangers 2019 ua-cam.com/video/I8MKd4lkvDc/v-deo.html Floor Jansen sings Que Se Siente for Rolf Sanches Beste Zangers 2019 ua-cam.com/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/v-deo.html *(With Subtitles): ua-cam.com/video/QrUz0CE7zoM/v-deo.html Floor Jansen sings Winner for Tim Akkerman Beste Zangers 2019 Eng.

@@nicod1361 For Let It Go I prefer the remastered version as it brings her voice more to the front. The original was the first attempt in their studio and I think the mix was wrong. ua-cam.com/video/plFqA0NMzds/v-deo.html
Storytime is also one of my favorites. If you like Floor's opera voice, then you will love Nightwish's version of Phantom of the Opera. She performs it with guest singer Henk Poort who has played the lead in the musical many, many times. 😊🤘 ua-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/v-deo.htmlsi=9h5osxXdoU2rOBDH

Love the reaction and that you like the band and floor. But just to fuck with you, i recommend that you listen to the original singer Tarja. Her version of The Phantom of the opera is insane.
Hi Ashlena, greetings from UK ONLY 3 songs? Wow, that is difficult I have chosen three songs where Floor sings in a more contemporary style... 'Pan' lyric video, not live (the only song I prefer the lyric video over the live performance) 'Noise' is great live, but there is also an awesome music video 'Elan' is also great live, but there is also an awesome music video We would be very happy if you wanted to show lyrics on screen whilst you watched. It might make things easier for you to understand at the time of watching? Sometimes more classical singing can make it a little harder to pick out all of the words
Hi Ashlena, now that you've seen a few songs by Nightwish and I'm sure you'll see more, you'll get a subscription too. You asked for other songs, I don't think I need to mention Nightwish songs, you have enough of Gabriel's list, I have a suggestion with Epica, 3 cellos, a keyboard and a voice and also live, I can very well imagine that you like the voice, or the classic example why it is called symphonic metal. Epica feat Floor with an orchestra . here the links ua-cam.com/video/7imPLmvLyQA/v-deo.html . and here with Floor ua-cam.com/video/9NXSd8HdZRo/v-deo.html Im curious what you say about it . Greetings from Germany
Aurora during night in Patreon and Nightwish for breakfast, how could the Saturday start better? What, you only listened Ashlena's Nightwish reactions? Shame on you 😊 You must also love the Warning and Aurora, so go ahead and head for Ashlena's wonderful reactions to them. Warnng army happily takes comrades from NWA and there surely are also soldiers fitting as Warriors if not Weirdoes!
Tell me some songs (and/or bands) you really love? (Trying to tailor-make a suggestion for you 😁 ) At least you love Ren and.. Aurora? (Never heard her, so have to go and check some of your reactions to her to see what she's all about) and you kinda said you love the way they make people feel emotions... hmmm. I have already something cooking.. but tell me more ❤
Oh I love all genres. I’m in my heavy metal phase this year 😂 listening to a lot of sleep token, invent animate. I love the warning, Alexisonfire, but I love Labrinth, Billie EILISH, Raye. I could go on lol
I think you would like Nemo, which is equally poetic and a tiny bit softer, but please be sure to use the version from Wembley 2015, not the Wacken one. While the Wacken one is good, Wembley is still better. ua-cam.com/video/dxb_vd2Y6uw/v-deo.html

My top 3: Ghost Love Score, Greatest Show on Earth and Storytime. Welcome to the Nightwish Army! You will definitely enjoy your listening journey
You said the magic words 'This is my favourite Nightwish song'. Be prepared to say this many times more. You asked the impossible question 'what are your favourite Nightwish songs'. There is literally no bad song. I am a Flooraholic, so the Floor Era is my territory. When I am forced to make the impossible choice of the ones you did not do yet: Wacken 2013 'Bless the Child' (Floor almost too late due to a 'zip problem' during a costume change); Wembley 2015 '7 Days to the Wolves' (Floor going wild with 'The Dutch Windmill'); Tampere 2015 'Weak Fantasy' (watch the facial expressions as always with Floor); Buenos Aires 2018 'I want my Tears back' (Floor going nuts with the audience); Hellfest 2022 'Shoemaker' (check the backstory); Amsterdam 2022 'The Phantom of the Opera' (Floor at top of her game yet again). Then there are of course the other 2 of the 'big 3' besides 'Ghost Love Score': Wembley 2015 'The Poet and the Pendulum' and Tampere 2015 'The Greatest Show on Earth'.
10 months before this Wacken(Vah-ken)festival, the band was partially thru their World Imaginarium Tour and had just parted with their second lead singer, Anette. At that time Floor was recovering from massive burnout, where she couldn't do anything. Tuomas, the keyboardist/composer/leader of Nightwish, called Floor who was in the Netherlands(at her sisters wedding) and asked her if she could fill in for the rest of the tour. Basically,"Could you learn the 20 song setlist in 48 hours and fly to Seattle, Washington?" Imagine the songs you have heard so far. The intricate melodies, and the lyrics.

Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins - Tuomas, the keyboard player and musical mastermind, loves movies and metal! My favourites?

Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996.
This is our Valkyrie Goddess for you. And you witnessed first hand a "Dutch Windmill" , and to finish you off, The Operatic "Cruise Missile" !!!!
Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bull whip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch.
Awesome tune , although it is kind of a pop/rockish sound (originally sung by Anette, the second singer of Nightwish), but Floor gave it soooo much POWER !!! Including this "Operatic" part, what was originally done by children's choir because vocal limitations on their second singer (Great singer also, I might add), but Floor has none of that "Limit".
Nightwish lyrics are often a bit interpretive, and not as "straight forward" as many other bands, because Tuomas ( The Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen: founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish.) prefers people to put their own interpretations and life experiences into the lyrics. you connect with songs on a personal level when there is something there that relates to things you have gone/are going through, and you may even find new connections later on in life when you have gone through other big events/emotions. there might be songs you are quite indifferent about (oh, nice song) and then you go through something big and all of a sudden it makes you break down in tears because now you relate to something in the lyrics you didn't before, and see it from a whole new perspective. imagination and life experiences are powerful, and Tuomas has great appreciation of this.
NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Great. Well, "Storytime " is my fave Nightwish song and you are my favorite new Nightwish reactor. #2 is "Dead Boys Poem" and I guess my #3 is "Weak Fantasy" (but they are literally all good.)
Top 3
#1 Dead Boy's Poem, live from Buenos Aires
#2 Shoemaker, either the offical lyric video or live from Hellfest
#3 7 Days To The Wolves, live from Wembley
Honorable mentions... all of it, everything. If Tuomas wrote it and Floor sings it... you just can't go wrong. :)
2 & 3 I concur. They're ❤️
It's hard to find a bad song in their cataloque, and i know the first is favourite of many - but if we only the Best of the Best - imho.
For Floor and Nightwish something like this you would probably enjoy would be Elan. However I also think the band's version of Dead Boy's Poem with her in Buenos Aries is something you'd like.
For Annette and the band Slow Love Slow from Monterey Jazz Festival.
My top 3 favoriet NW songs (not necessarily in this order:
1) Ghost Love Score (my intro to the band)
2) Ghost River (heavy and dark)
And last but certainly by no means the least, the
fabulous
3) Song of Myself (fantastic duo performance by Marco & Floor 🔥🔥
Everybody smiles reacting to this one. Song writer Tuomas ( keyboards ) is a major Disney fan. Congats on seeing the Time Traveler ( in the hat ). My fave 3...."Dead Boys Poem" Buenos Aires Concert. "Amaranth" from Wacken Concert and " Poet And The Pendulum" from Wembly Concert ( P A T P better knowing the songs history. Look forward to your next reaction. Be well.
Ashlena,dont feel too bad, there are several vocal coach reactors with over 3Million views from a single reaction to Ghost Love Score :) but I really like your attitude ,it's about the music and an amazing band like NW &singer like Floor that more people should know about ,cheers
Thanks and it’s ok I don’t do this for the views xx
@@ashlenamusic Hi Ashlena, just FYI. It's a German name pronounced VA-kin. Always love your posts! 🥰
1. The greatest show on earth ( Tampere)
2.Nemo (Buenos Aires decades tour)
3.The Poet and the Pendulum ( Wembley)
My intro to Nightwish was "End of an era: Phantom of the Opera". It was kinda like getting smacked between the eyes with a 2x4. Love 'em.
My top 3 favourite NW songs? Hmm... hard to choose, but today I'll go with '7 days to the wolves', 'Pan' and 'The Greatest Show On Earth'
My Queen Floorever!
you will love i want my tears back live in buenos aires. its their most fun song and the crowd on buenos aires concert is amazing🥰
NW are fantastic this show is awesome. You've done 2 of my favs already my 3rd is Dead boys Poem at Buenos Aires Floor's vocals are incredible in that one. Thank you Ashlena.
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!!
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!!
Welcome aboard 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 every time .
Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
Get ready because each new song may be in the running to become your favorite!! Everdream, Ghost River, and i freeking love Song of Myself!!, Romanticide, ......Heck, all of Wacken (pronounced "Vahken")...... but beyond this show you'll die over Dead boys Poem from Buenos Aires, Poet and the Pendulum from Wembley, Greateat Show on Earth from Tampere. If you want to see and hear pure Floor in a very intimate environment def react to Hows the Heart, acoustic version....... few if any singers on the planet could cover her vocals on this. And dont neglect checking out some solo Floor stuff like her 2019 performances on the Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers" ....... her duet of Phantom of the opera is just amazing, ..... as is her cover of Shallow...... Lady Gaga who??? ..... lol ....... Floor has a bunch of covers she did during covid that are amazing, as well as her solo band work. Floor live in Amsterdam is just killer too! Enjoy!!
Glad to see you get to this one, because I was pretty confident you'd like it. Although most reactors start with "Ghost Love Score" I think this is the better and "safer" introduction to Nightwish. Not everybody is ready for their more epic tracks right out of the gate, so I get you saying you wish you'd have seen this one first.
Nothing like Nightwish live, so I'll list my top 3 performances, rather than just songs:
1. The Greatest Show on Earth (Tampere)
2. The Poet and the Pendulum (Wembley)
3. Song of Myself (Wacken 2013)
Yep! Storytime is a way, way better introduction to Nightwish.
the 2 best songs of Nightwish are The poet and the pendukum and The greatest show on earth .
Congrats, Ashlena: You're one of the very few reactors who noticed the 'Time Traveler' (the guy with the hat)!!! 🤩🤩🤩
lol this is hilarious
@@ashlenamusic I know it's funny but I wasn't kidding: The 'Time Traveler' IS indeed very popular and famous within the Nightwish Army. Unfortunately till now, his idendity is STILL unknown... ☹️
that is CRAZY
AT LAST a reactor who checks out the lyrics... THANK YOU 💖
🥰🥰
Hey Ashlena, you should always listen to Nightwish with the subs on if there are any. They always have deep lyrics that speaks to goodness and positivity. Tuomas (keyboards) is not only
a fantastic composer but also an extremely skilled poet. He tells stories with words and music. Some are scientific others can be from old folklore and tales. There's always a meaning,
a message, sometimes they're very personal and expressive. Very good that you had the lyrics next to the video. I didn't bother to hear them until 7 months ago, now I'm hooked.
Shame on me for preventing myself from such joy. I've been an idiot..:)
Funny, that you did mention the man with the hat, that didn't clap and stand stil. He is our famous time traveler. He was send to a Bob Dylan concert in 1970 (even his clothes fits for that concert)but came by mistake in this concert and he is wondering wtf am i doing here😂
What??? Lol
Guy with hat is time traveller. He just pop up there.
Nightwish army Italian division present! 🤘
YES!!! Nightwish never disappoints. We want moore!! "Greatest show on eart"..."The poet and the pendelum" "Elan" are all great songs...and there are plenty moore....:-) Cheers from a finn in Sweden.
We that love Aurora and The Warning also love Nightwish 😈😎🇧🇻 . Top 3 atm: Song of myself, I want my tears back, Tribal.
Would like to see your reaction to Greatest Show on Earth from their live show in Tampere or The Poet and the Pendulum at Wimbledon.
I'm thinking you would enjoy "I Want My Tears Back" from the 2018 concert in Buenos Aires. You will find that the live concerts, just has some more magical than the studio versions.
All of them. 😊
Poet and the Pendulum and Ghost Love Score are definitely my top 2 favorite Nightwish songs and my 3rd is a little more difficult but I Want My Tears Back is a very fun and energetic song whenever they perform it live and it's also catchy, like Storytime. I love that interlude/bridge as well, very beautiful and epic at the same time. I'm sure Storytime is an exhausting song to sing anytime, much less halfway through a show, but Floor killed it as always.
Favorite song... So far. There are at least a hundred more favorites still to come... My favorite... If you give me a week and I could probably narrow it down to my top 20.
Great again ❤ Thanks for this entertaining reaction video… hopefully you will do soooo much more… next could be: Everdream (same concert: Wacken 2013) ‼️🏆👍
Top 3 songs? That’s very difficult - when you did more of the Nightwish stuff you will understand…
- The Greatest Show on Earth (it’s not the show itself - it’s more the message as always)
- Nemo (Wembley 2015)
- Everdream (Wacken 2013)
HELLOO YOU HAVE A REACTION TO THE BEST CROWD EVER WORLD ARE THE ARGENTINES, I LOVE THAT SONG.
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done Ashlena
Nice to see you again on the Nightwish train
More to come!
Thanks for your reaction!
My favourite Nightwish songs are:
Romantiside
The greatest show on earth
Last ride of the day (masters of rock)
But aside of Nightwish I would encourage you to look at her solo singing, specially her performance at the Dutch tv show "beste zangers" she sings different styles in different languages (Dutch, English, German, Spanish) And ends with a great duet with a Dutch tenor.
NW Kentucky division reporting in! Thanks for the reaction! My favs: GLS, Ever Dream, Dead Boys Poem. Enjoy the journey, and be ready for your next “favorite” NW song ;) -Also, encourage you to check out Floor on Bestzangers from 2019, she is a spectacular person on top of an amazing singer!
Thank you for doing my request Story Time I added you to my subscription what to do next is hard since you did my top three Ghost Love Score, Story Time and ever Dream so to be a little different why not do my 4th favorite Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires 2018 as long as you do the other two big epic ones further down your journey which are are The Poet and The pendulum and The Greatest eat Show on Earth so you will have a better understanding of how great Nightwish is on your journey down the rabbit hole
favorite Nightwish song ...
yes...
for now ...
until the next new song you never heard before ...
;)
clicked me in for more... subbed, bells on and recommending your next "favorite" from this band, "ever dream" live wacken 2013
your turn !
Hahaha love that
Nice reaction. Greetings from Mexico City 🇲🇽
Ghost loves score, Dad boy' s poem, Song for myself, Shoemaker, and many others from Nightwish ❤
You spotted the time traveler! Good job.
There are few newer good quality live shows: Tampere, Wembley, Buenos Aires, Hellfest, Pinkpop, Deichbrand and lyric videos from latest album Human/ Nature. Hope you check out Nightwish video "Noise" from their latest album, there is something to react. My favourite song is Pan (today, Tomorrow it is maybe something else). Greetings from Finland.
Hi Ashlena, great reaction! If you want to hear more of Marko and Floor duet go with Romanticide. If you like it strong and powerful, go with Song of myself or Shudder before the beautiful. If you like rich masterpieces, try The greatest show on earth and The poet and the pendulum (history of the band is very important for this one, you can do some resarch or let the fans guide you). If you want to be haunted, go with Yours is an empty hope.
Hello again, ashlena. Welcome to the next step down our Nightwish rabbit hole. You have just scratched the surface of this great band's live performances. Keep them coming.
Top three Nightwish songs (in no order):
Ghost Love Score
Song of Myself
Poet and the Pendulum
7 Days to the Wolves
Greatest Show on Earth
Tribal
Shoemaker
Yours is an Empty Hope
Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean
Sleeping Sun
The Islander
……….
Do more and more!
Great one.
That performance at Wacken is one of my top favorites! I love Floor's voice and all the rest of the band sounds splendid. 🎶❤️
Right now, my top 3 Nightwish songs are:
Alpenglow
Shudder Before the Beautiful
Edema Ruh
Hmm, that's funny. You have a stack of books there, one is entitled: 'Steven Tyler'. Yesterday I was in my local health food store here on Maui, and there was this guy, and he looked so familiar, but I just could not place him. It was Steven Tyler. Small world, LOL.
No way🤯🤯🤯
Music, harvest, ghost river.
I can always tell when a reactor feels the rhythm of this song. The head goes side to side, instead of up and down. There is a very natural swing feel to this rhythm. A very common theme in NIghtwish lyricism is longing for the lost innocence of youth. Tuomas (Keys) is the main composer of the music and lyrics of Nightwish. He write lyrics in a very poetic style and his musical creations are heavily influenced by movie soundtracks and focused on emotional soundscapes. Hope to see you again very soon Ashlena.
Awesome reaction! Cant wait until you checkout Everdream from this concert, hearing her and Marco singing together is unreal...Enjoy!
She already reacted to Ever Dream, so you literally don't have to wait. 😏
@@Tarkus_ Awesome, away I go lol
If you like this, you'll like Ever Dream, Song of Myself, and Dark Chest of Wonders.
My 3 (if you're asking today, the answer would be different tomorrow) are 7 Days to the Wolves, Ghost Love Score, and Poet and the Pendulum
You have a really infectious and great smile. Much love from Canada. :) Nightwish amazing. You should hear Epica and their song Sancta Terra with Floor from nightwish. Brilliant.
Also Ghost River and Yours is an empty hope or Alpenglow are all great from Nightwish.
Awww thank you!!! I’m also Canadian 🇨🇦
So we bonded over our Hate for justin trudeau and love for sleep token. lol :)@@ashlenamusic
Hahahaha yup. We’re best friends now 😂
@@ashlenamusic theres another band sorta similar to sleep token if you haven't heard of called Bad Omens that are alright too my new bestie 😉 😜 😘
Bad omens reaction on my channel 🤘🏽
My top 3 are the last 3 Nightwish songs I listened to!🤘🎸
Sub'd for the Nightwish journey 🤘
Ty!!
My favorites:
Favorite with capital F is Story Time
favorites with lowercase f is everything else. 😊
Romanticide, The Islander and Your's Is An Empty Hope
Thanks so much for getting around to Storytime, one of my favorites as well. I promise you will find many more favorites.... like the next one you listen to. I told you the Nightwish Army would blow up your channel. There were 82,000 people at that concert and Floor had not been with the band for very long. Good job and keep the Nightwish and The Warning coming
Thanks for this great reaction to my favorite band. There are a lot of highly suggested Nightwish songs, each one is different, each one worth a reaction. Many songs also have a deeper meaning. For "The Poet And The Pendulum" and The Greatest Show On Earth" I would like you to find out a little about the background before reacting. Versions with lyrics superimposed can also help. Very few reactors understand these great songs unprepared, it would be a shame and frustrating.
Good to know thanks!
Nightwish es precioso
nice, glad you try some more NW
greetings from NW-Army-Germany and SabatonFan
More to come!
Depends on what impressed you most, and what path is your favourite. If you're more to hear operatic voice of Floor going along with some metal, I'd recommend Shoemaker. With some research about Eugene SHoemaker (Wiki will do fine). If you prefer to hear more melodic metal first, then probably Romanticide is the better choice. Lots of metal, some orchestral, Floor always shines so you'll find great vocals there as well.
I concur about Shoemaker.
great reaction, nightwish is life all to heart ;)
Another awesome reaction Ashlena. I would recommend 'Everdream' from Wacken next. It has a very similar flavor to Storytime. I think that it will be your next favorite song 😁
Gotta do Romanticide and Amaranth from this same show
6 days late to the party but I got you if you like this particular song.
Ghost River
Elan
The Poet and the Pendulum
Now that being said, I think Noise is something you'd like as well. Plus, they got a music video for it so if you want a new medium give that a try. Enjoy!
I am definitely a Floor fan, but I have a big soft spot in my heart for Marko, the bassist and male vocalist, also. My three favorite Nightwish songs are "The Islander" "Weak Fantasy" and "Song of Myself". The first song "The Islander" live at Tampere would be a great introduction to how good Marko is. I do, also, think that "Storytime" would be a much better introduction to Nightwish than "Ghost Love Score."
Wow. Gothic raunch.
I fell in love with something you reacted to. That's 2.
Ahhhh let’s go for 3!

Lyrics
Honestly I got tired of the crap
The way you treated me thinking you could take it back
What'd you expect? For me to keep quiet?
Honestly? Honestly
That girl you're staring at she knows like everybody else does
How you are cause I can never keep my mouth shut
So don't you dare go near her drink
Just test me babe I'm crazy
She's not your girl or your next sin
Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins
She won't be on your arm or your hit list
Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bitе your bullets
Toxins
Your toxins
So tell me hun arе you regretting all your actions?
Cause they're haunting you? Don't forget this interaction
Cause you'll never do what you did to me to them
Go ahead try it again
She's not your girl or your next sin
Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins
She won't be on your arm or your hit list
Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bite your bullets
Toxins
Your toxins
She's not your girl or your next sin
Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins
She won't be on your arm or your hit list
Cause your love's just a gun don't wana bite your bullets
She's not your girl or your next sin
Got a label to your name and we don't need your toxins
She won't be on your arm or your hit list
Cause your love's just a gun and no one wants to bite your bullets
Toxins
They sound great I just hate their music video lol
@@ashlenamusic Everybody starts somewhere
This band is a vehicle for the lyricism. There will be a reflection of the lyrical meaning in the music. There isn't metal for metals sake. So read the lyrics to get more of the layers.
Excellent reaction! 🎸🤘
😊👍
🙏🏼👍
Hi Ashlena. I was wondering if you've thought about reacting to Disturbed new song. It's a duet with Ann Wilson of Heart ❤️. Ann is 73 and Davivid is 50. Floor does her windmills and getscin position to sing without getting dizzy.
I should I love disturbed
Ashlena. I noticed some have listed The Greatest Show on Earth and Poet and the Pendulum amongst their favourites. However, both these epic songs have a story behind them that is worth knowing before you react to them. I would suggest Romanticide next where you will get to know the second singer in the band, followed by Song of Myself and Ever Dream, both from the same Wacken festival.
Narrowing favourites down to three is difficult but other than the 2 epic songs above I would say Romanticide, Song of Myself and a tie between Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires, Weak Fantasy from Tampere and 7 Days to the Wolves from Wembley. Of course tomorrow that may change depending what I have listened to.
Haha I like that. You love a band so much your favorite songs change 🥰
@@ashlenamusic def wait a good while before doing Poet or Greatest Show, Wacken 2013 is a standard setting seminal event, every one of the 15 song set is Gold, then there is the "icing on the cake" sorta speak,the other things that make you wonder why is Floor not a Mega star in N.America ? with Floor's covid covers and the other pivotal event for her & NW : Beste Zangers 2019 a popular Dutch tv show filmed on Ibiza, where past & contemporary Dutch singers get together and sing eachothers songs(or songs that hold meaning to them) back to the orig artist but rearanged and reinterpreted ,Floor opened the show with the 1st song below and just blew everyone's mind,only two of the other singers knew who Floor was but none of them had heard her sing with such versatility,after the 8 day run of the show Floor's & NW's popularity soared,stadiums filled up and ticket sales shot up,

Storytime is also one of my favorites. If you like Floor's opera voice, then you will love Nightwish's version of Phantom of the Opera. She performs it with guest singer Henk Poort who has played the lead in the musical many, many times. 😊🤘 ua-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/v-deo.htmlsi=9h5osxXdoU2rOBDH

Love the reaction and that you like the band and floor. But just to fuck with you, i recommend that you listen to the original singer Tarja. Her version of The Phantom of the opera is insane.
She was in the first night wish reaction I did to ghost love score she is an amazing vocalist
Hi Ashlena, greetings from UK
ONLY 3 songs? Wow, that is difficult
I have chosen three songs where Floor sings in a more contemporary style...
'Pan' lyric video, not live (the only song I prefer the lyric video over the live performance)
'Noise' is great live, but there is also an awesome music video
'Elan' is also great live, but there is also an awesome music video
We would be very happy if you wanted to show lyrics on screen whilst you watched. It might make things easier for you to understand at the time of watching? Sometimes more classical singing can make it a little harder to pick out all of the words
I always look at the lyrics while watching videos I just forgot this time 😂
if opera then maybe "Schoemaker....", cheers
Well spotted. The guy in the crowd with hat on. Known as the "Time traveller" by Nightwish army because he looks kinda out of place. 😀
😂😂😂
Hi Ashlena, now that you've seen a few songs by Nightwish and I'm sure you'll see more, you'll get a subscription too. You asked for other songs, I don't think I need to mention Nightwish songs, you have enough of Gabriel's list, I have a suggestion with Epica, 3 cellos, a keyboard and a voice and also live, I can very well imagine that you like the voice, or the classic example why it is called symphonic metal. Epica feat Floor with an orchestra . here the links ua-cam.com/video/7imPLmvLyQA/v-deo.html . and here with Floor ua-cam.com/video/9NXSd8HdZRo/v-deo.html Im curious what you say about it . Greetings from Germany
Aurora during night in Patreon and Nightwish for breakfast, how could the Saturday start better? What, you only listened Ashlena's Nightwish reactions? Shame on you 😊 You must also love the Warning and Aurora, so go ahead and head for Ashlena's wonderful reactions to them. Warnng army happily takes comrades from NWA and there surely are also soldiers fitting as Warriors if not Weirdoes!
I do Love You! ..is there any chance You have time to listen to : Susanne Sundfør : "Alyosha".....
Tell me some songs (and/or bands) you really love? (Trying to tailor-make a suggestion for you 😁 )
At least you love Ren and.. Aurora? (Never heard her, so have to go and check some of your reactions to her to see what she's all about) and you kinda said you love the way they make people feel emotions... hmmm. I have already something cooking.. but tell me more ❤

I think you would like Nemo, which is equally poetic and a tiny bit softer, but please be sure to use the version from Wembley 2015, not the Wacken one. While the Wacken one is good, Wembley is still better. ua-cam.com/video/dxb_vd2Y6uw/v-deo.html
