Thank you for your enthusiasm, as well as for the kind words. Nightwish's music, with its intense and optimistic energy, has been with me, as well as many other fans, in difficult moments of our lives. The link lists that I promote to the reactors are my way of thanking them, to the best of my humble ability, by making them as well known as possible. 🤘
Well Gabriel, you are doing a great job!! Nightwish should be known to everyone. Because when you miss Nightwish in your life, you miss something very, very, very special. The compositions, the messages, the passion, the musicianship, the companionship, Floor....We cannot promote them enough.
I look at Nightwish as music without limits. They don't box themselves into any limitations. They use whatever types of styles that are needed to deliver the message or feel they want.
Instant "Like" !!!! This song is from Anette era and from Dark Passion Play. Highly underrated song, and one of my many favorite Nightwish songs ❤!!!! That middle eastern vibe, Troy's E-Bow magic, Marko's Bass, Emppu's heavy riffs and of course Floor's amazing Vocals....This song is real treat !!!! Thank you guys for this reaction !!!! NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.
A banger of a song, and the vocals are just right. Nightwish plays to a club audience (perhaps a 1000 people?) with the same dedication they have for massive audiences, true professionals with the aim to entertain everybody present.
I love this song, it's a bit underrated by reactors, but it has everything I love on Nightwish. It's pretty old, so I didn't expect to hear it sometime live in concert. And in my first and only concert yet, 2022 in Poland, they put it in the list. When the intro started, I started to cry... It was a miracle, a wish that came true. Thanks for your reactions.
Great reaction to a beautiful song! One that is often overlooked by reactors. One of the things I like about this video is that it shows the smaller venues Nightwish plays in the US since they are criminally unknown here. This concert is from the same Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour as Wembley and Tampere. So here in the States you might get about 1000 people while in Europe you are getting 15,000 to 20,000. Because of the smaller venues it doesn't make sense to bring the huge video walls and pyro over here so you get a much smaller production. Saw them live in Boston in 2022 in the UMass Lowell hockey arena with about 2000 people. On my bucket list to see them in Europe, preferably Finland, to get that big stage show.
Hello to both of you from Phoenix. Nightwish has a magical ability to just dive into your soul and conjure emotions that you might not have even known were there. They have become my favorite group of all time and that is saying a lot as someone who grew up loving Pink Floyd and an eclectic mix of metal and country music. Thank you both for continuing to delve into Gabriel's brilliant list of amazing Nightwish live performances. Keep them coming.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song that explores themes of mythology and adventure, combining elements of ancient Egypt and Arabian tales. The lyrics depict a narrative that unfolds through various characters and settings. In the verses, we are introduced to a dark queen and a protagonist who is fleeing the curse of the gods and the pharaoh's wrath. This creates a sense of danger and urgency. The chorus mentions "1001 nights unseen," referencing the famous collection of Arabian folk tales known as "One Thousand and One Nights." This alludes to a world filled with mystery and enchantment. The second verse introduces an ancient mariner navigating a vast desert, with the burning beauty of his tomb being a grave worth dying for. This line suggests a longing for eternal rest and possibly an obsession that drives the mariner forward. The bridge section describes a heaven with a darkened face and dunes soaring like they are in a chase. It portrays a desolate landscape and a cursed caravan pursuing the protagonist across the waves. The mention of mirages and Elysian fields implies the possibility of finding solace and peace amid the harshness of the desert. The chorus is repeated twice at the end, emphasizing the significance of the "philosopher and the queen" and their unseen adventures and struggles. The repetition of "1001 nights unseen" further reinforces the mystical nature of their journey. Overall, "Sahara" by Nightwish combines elements of mythology and folklore to create a tale of adventure and escape. The song touches upon themes of longing, pursuit, and the search for transcendence in a treacherous world.
Tuomas has said that he first gets an idea for a song. Then he starts writing the lyrics and as he writes he composes the music in his head. He composes for all the instruments except the guitar, which he says eludes him. So Emppu gets that job. When he’s done writing an album, he then presents his results to the band and Floor and everything is tweaked to perfection. 😄🤘
Aplause for reacting to one very underrated hidden gem. A great song - well what Nightwish song isn't? But this one has a very unique touch that makes it a real treat! Greetings from Germany
Nightwish has a sound for every ear! and that's the beautiful thing... I've been a fan since 2004 and I think that people generally make good lists for reactors, but they tend to be guided by those longer and more surprising songs, and that can be overwhelming many times, because they are presenting you a band with too many sounds, too many arrangements, and a lot of depth in their lyrics, and perhaps a song with a more contemporary sound may be a better option for those new to nightwish...I will give a simple example that would captivate anyone without introducing its masterpieces...(which of course everyone has to get there at some point) Romantice Sahara Storytime Ghost river Amaranth Ever dream Shy is my sin Dead boy poem High Hopes Dark chest of wonders The phantom of the opera... etc
Great you are still on the NW Journey! All the Best, moving an Househhold always got its Fairnesses, no Matter how good its organized. Just go from A to B Safe and have fun at your new Casa!
We all have our favourites. Point is, they don't do bad songs. So you'll have to check out everything from them... It's a rotten job but somebody's got to do it 😂
I've been enjoying diving into Nightwish with you guys. This was one I hadn't heard before, but I really liked it. Very driving but also a quite beautiful. Thank you guys for showing me this one!
Great shout out to the General he works tirelessly seeking new reactors and giving that list, it's a big job. Also just a we side step request. Have you heard Tuomas's wife Johanna sing?. They have along with Troy formed a side project called Auri but before checking them out first give a listen to this one: A lifetime of Adventure.
We have not heard his wife sing, but we do appreciate this information. Thank you. And yes, the General's list is truly a blessing for reactors. He deserves the recognition.

Great pick Coach. This is just one of all the hidden/forgotten gems they have. Sahara is also one of my favorites in this live rendition with Floor. Marvelous.
Loved the reaction and subbed...greets from Australian chapter. Not sure if anyone has mentioned it....Floor's husband Hannes Van Dahl is the drummer for Sabaton - they are power metal band from Sweeden and majority of their songs are based on war and events. Start with Bismark official video - play each video to the end as there dedications, outtakes, etc. Songs you maybe interested in - Screaming eagles - the lost batallion - to hell and back - 82nd all the way - devil dogs - Midway - hellfighters - the final stand They have done covers of "for whom the bell tolls" and "1916" There is a sister channel called Sabaton history 15-20 minutes mini docos....enjoy and you're welcome!
I concur. Rogue away. You really can't go wrong with this group. Even though everyone has their favourites, as an group they can't be boxed in certain place or feeling. Tuomas really does challenge the group to do everything and anything.
A Pleasure watching your reaction videos. Keep up the good "Work". To get an impression of the many faces of Nightwish and their Music please react to The crow the owl and the dove (official fan video) and the escapist. They are bout examples of songs from the Annette Era. Tuomas has this wonderful talent of expressing Emotions through music. At the same time he manage to write music which fits the present constellation of the band at any time since 1996 and even today.
100%. Saw them in Lowell was 2nd row so like 15 ft from stage …the aura she has has is indescribable and the vocals are so much more impressive being there. There’s something about her voice that just is breathtaking.
@@rickmarshall342 yeah. That was my first time seeing them. The sound quality in that place was really good. I’ve never heard a tighter band live…and heard a lot of great ones throughout the years.
The two albums with Anette, "Dark Passion Play" and "Imaginaerum," would be in my top four favorite Nightwish albums if I was the type to make lists. When I saw Nightwish (and Kamelot) in 2012, I listened to "Dark Passion Play" on the way there and "Imaginaerum" on the way back. The song "Whoever Brings the Night" is one of my favorites, but I don't recall a quality live version. If you'd like some live recommendations, "Slaying the Dreamer" and "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" are both great songs from the Tarja era that have great live versions with Floor. Both songs are on Nuclear Blasts' official channel.
Please Check "While your Lips are still red" from Wembley 2015.... i have always tears in my eyes..... Greetings from Germany and sorry for my bad english 😅
Certainly one of my favorite songs. Love Troy’s guitar playing. Love your reaction channel and your conversations. This is a great live band. Did see them 2 evenings in a row a couple of years ago. Thanks for this reaction.
Yeah, this one's kind of an underappreciated gem. I wouldn't go so far as to say it should be recommended first (I say "Storytime" at Wacken 2013), but it should be much higher on the list than it typically is.
Troy adds a lot of atmosphere to this great song playing his guitar with an e-bow. I always see this song as Tuomas' answer to Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir." And the lyrics are "1,001 nights unseen"
Awwwwwsh*t!.. Mrs Coach turning to the dark side?..(Hoping the reference is some Dark Chocolate..is that nut based?)...maybe some Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip?..and windmilling at the same time?.. Anyhoo... 0:40- Coach...the whiskey is AFTER the reaction(s)...😁 Fun Reaction! 👍
nice, I like that song too .. (try a instumental "the eyes of Sharbat Gula" no live; In my opinion it is a tribut..) ( And all NW-Songs are good, sometimes you have to liszen 2-3 times but they are all good)
One great thing on this piece is that bass has those moments to shine. (Yeah, sure it's always excellent, but this time there's those more audible and more important moments. )
No the first song to show for new reactors to Nightwish are Ghost love score live at Wacken 2013 the most reacted song in the history of youtube and the most reacted song year after years . The reactors are blown away after Ghost love score
Everyone has preferences...this blew Coach away far more, and others have also said it's their favorite. GLS intrigued me, but definitely did not blow me away.
Coach went 'rogue', well you picked well.👍👍☺ Good choice. Concert was March 2016. As you see, they play smaller venues here in the US. This song doesn't get reacted to often, but it should. Thank you.Anette era song, from Dark Passion Play album. A history of Egypt from a fantasy perspective. Just a bit off coach, 🤣. The lyric is "1001 nights UNSEEN", and is a reference to a collection of Arabic Tales, which includes Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves.
LOL! Well, it will always be my "misheard lyric"...speaking of which Peter Kay's comedy on that topic is one of the most viewed videos on our channel. Haha!
Hey there Mr & Mrs Coach, a great chugging song that often gets missed among the other gems. The orchestral parts are very much instrumental (no pun intended) here. Floor's vocals showcased here I feel. Empuu's guitar solo, as short as it was, outstanding. This song is 'dark treacle'. Mrs Coach nailed it about Tuomas, he writes to incorporate the singer's abilities. By the way, I love whiskey and ice cream so a whiskey ice cream treat would do me. From one nut to another, great reaction. Cheers, Rich
Hi Mr and Mrs Coach. Some other gems to consider are Edema Ruh, Endlessness, and SAGAN (about Carl Sagan) - Some are never done live but beautiful fan videos are out there.
I suggest two songs from them that fits both of you, the Rock‘n‘Roller and Mrs. Coach: First one is „Shoemaker“, raw and solid with an epic ending. The second is „Tribal“, very catchy! both from the last Album. There is an official Live Video from Tribal. Shoemaker has an epic live Video at Hellfest, but for this song, you could try the official album VersionVideo first, and then the epic live to see how the band does it live (Floor in full Goodess mode!) Greetings from Germany 🔥🤘🫶 P.S. And I‘m still hoping that you’ll react to High Hopes from NW 🫶
Many thanks for those, and we do have High Hopes on the list that we're keeping of suggestions. We're beginning to realize you cannot really go wrong with this band.
No rush to get to the biggies, they'll still be here after your move. Since you liked the Middle Eastern feel of this, can I suggest _Tribal?_ Go for the official live video (with clips from multiple shows), but then watch the lyric video so you can properly see the animation happening in the background. Enjoy!
That's the thing, we're all different in our taste. For example, you still haven't heard any of my top3 Nightwish songs and "the big" ones aren't even on that list. This is why it's extremely hard choosing one starting song that fits all listeners. Nightwish has a song or two for everyone, even if they don't care for the rest.
Freaking love this one. I feel like it’s one of the few that is clearly an “Anette song”. Floor is, as always, wonderful though. Great reaction, coaches.
For oldschool metalheads I personally like to intro with the album Oceanborn because it kicks off with 4 great metal songs and then graduate to the ones with more production :D You've done the first of the 4 so far which was Stargazers, I believe Coach liked that one too.
LOL...man, let me tell you, that was miserable for about 24 hours. Before and after were great. Don't recommend food poisoning at any time, especially for a honeymoon.
I think I suggested this when you mentioned you liking ME flavored sounds a short time back. This was in Florida, probably in 2016, as Floor was pregnant. Maybe they will come back, & you can see them. I need them to come closer to Texas!
WOW ❤ It’s difficult to choose a best of - because a lot have different tastes… 😂 I am also more interested in heavier stuff. So, my favorite is „Wish I had an angel“. (Wembley with Tarja) or (Wacken with Floor) - I can’t decide which one is better… 😂 But nevertheless I like them all… 👍‼️🏆
Anette's era has a lot of great tracks! While I love Tarja's voice the most, Anette's two albums are so strong! Nightwish, always incredible throughout the ages! :)
Nice videos. I can choose the vocalist every time immediately. I am biased due to 100 reasons. Thanks. good to have the choice. Personal taste matters.
A great song IMO Written for Annette, Floor as usual brings it to a different level. This isn't the only Tuomas song that has the Eastern feel (created by using suspended pentatonic or harmonic minor scales). You get a similar feeling, as you might expect from the names, in Tutankhamun and Pharaoh Sails to Orion . In this performance, Flors snake charming dance adds to the whole atmosphere, but I love Emppu's guitar too. I do have a spreadsheet of all the 30+ concerts I have on video with the best performances of every song (IMO) highlighted and have sent it to rectors before so they can use it (actually, put it on Google Drive).
How was that ice cream and whiskey? We don't intend to put you to work. However, if you understand the overall concept and story of the songs. will allow you to more fully grasp the emotion and lyrical concepts of these songs. Highly underrated song. I also love it and music using the harmonic minor keys to achieve middle eastern vibe. Sounds like your honeymoon was a night to remember. Or was it more like to following 1000 nights. Be well my friends.
LOL...yeah we don't recommend food poisoning at any time, especially the first night of a honeymoon. But 37 years later, it's all good. Definitely loved this one!
Thank you for your enthusiasm, as well as for the kind words. Nightwish's music, with its intense and optimistic energy, has been with me, as well as many other fans, in difficult moments of our lives.

Non metal heads, "no one can dance to metal". Floor...hold my whiskey 😂
This is what is known as a Nightwsih gem that often sails under the radar!
The best group on the planet, Nightwish rules!!!
to each their own.
But Lovebites is the best all around
Metal Band.
👰🏼♀️LOVEBITESRULES👰🏼♀️
One of my absolute faves from them as well. A favorite among favorites.
Indeed... a very underrated song.
I look at Nightwish as music without limits. They don't box themselves into any limitations. They use whatever types of styles that are needed to deliver the message or feel they want.
The Best group of all Times and the Best Singer of all Times.
One of my favorites, let's face it...they are all my favorites.
There is only one and she is... FLOOR!!!!
Thanks guys, all the best with the move! 🙋🏼♀️
Thanks so much!
Isn’t it so wonderful that Nightwish comes into our lives. Damn sad it was not 15 years ago
Very true!
Instant "Like" !!!!
This song is from Anette era and from Dark Passion Play.
Highly underrated song, and one of my many favorite Nightwish songs ❤!!!!
That middle eastern vibe, Troy's E-Bow magic, Marko's Bass, Emppu's heavy riffs and of course Floor's amazing Vocals....This song is real treat !!!!
Thank you guys for this reaction !!!!
NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.
This song is one of my personal favorites 👍as well
Love following your Nightwish reaction journey!
We're honored to have you along!

Great reaction to a beautiful song! One that is often overlooked by reactors. One of the things I like about this video is that it shows the smaller venues Nightwish plays in the US since they are criminally unknown here. This concert is from the same Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour as Wembley and Tampere. So here in the States you might get about 1000 people while in Europe you are getting 15,000 to 20,000. Because of the smaller venues it doesn't make sense to bring the huge video walls and pyro over here so you get a much smaller production. Saw them live in Boston in 2022 in the UMass Lowell hockey arena with about 2000 people. On my bucket list to see them in Europe, preferably Finland, to get that big stage show.
Yeah, we had never heard of them before this channel. It's a shame they aren't more well-known here.
One of my many favourite songs 😁
There is just something about Floor in this performance that awakens the 4094 ancestors of my past inside me.😁
LOL...no doubt...this was fantastic!
LoL😊
Well done. One of my favourites although not one of the most reacted.
Thanks. It's definitely a great one.
I've always said this is one of the band's most underrated songs!
Definitely a great one!
This is one of my favorites, a very underrated piece of art ❤️

I can't add anything to what you've already said. Love it.
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done as always
Another amazing song that is often overlooked is Bless the Child from Wacken. Absolutely fantastic 🤘🏻
Thanks for mentioning it!
👍Yep, the reason they are still populair with a big audience, they keep SURPRISING.😉🤘
I do wish they would play this more. This is my favorite song from them
Emppu messing up the intro and Tuomas laughing at him. Priceless 😆
I’m sure whatever you were going to say was right, because Coach is never wrong!😊🎸🤘
Finally someone understands. LOL
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song that explores themes of mythology and adventure, combining elements of ancient Egypt and Arabian tales. The lyrics depict a narrative that unfolds through various characters and settings.

I've been enjoying diving into Nightwish with you guys. This was one I hadn't heard before, but I really liked it. Very driving but also a quite beautiful. Thank you guys for showing me this one!
Glad you enjoyed it! They just keep giving different sounds that are all very well done.
Love you ❤. Greetings from Finland🇫🇮. You must listen Nighrwish The Siren by Tarja…
Thanks so much for that suggestion. We appreciate you!
Great shout out to the General he works tirelessly seeking new reactors and giving that list, it's a big job. Also just a we side step request. Have you heard Tuomas's wife Johanna sing?. They have along with Troy formed a side project called Auri but before checking them out first give a listen to this one: A lifetime of Adventure.
We have not heard his wife sing, but we do appreciate this information. Thank you. And yes, the General's list is truly a blessing for reactors. He deserves the recognition.
Great pick Coach. This is just one of all the hidden/forgotten gems they have. Sahara is also one of my favorites in this live rendition with Floor. Marvelous.
I totally agree, Coach!!
Loved the reaction and subbed...greets from Australian chapter.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it....Floor's husband Hannes Van Dahl is the drummer for Sabaton - they are power metal band from Sweeden and majority of their songs are based on war and events. Start with Bismark official video - play each video to the end as there dedications, outtakes, etc.
Songs you maybe interested in

There is a sister channel called Sabaton history 15-20 minutes mini docos....enjoy and you're welcome!
Thank you very much for this info! And welcome!
Rogue away, young man!! Dang!! I wish we could meet up for a coffee and a long chat. I SO enjoy watching the two of you!!!
Thanks so much! We truly appreciate your kind words.
I second that! Nightwish army UK division signing in 🤘
I concur. Rogue away.
You really can't go wrong with this group. Even though everyone has their favourites, as an group they can't be boxed in certain place or feeling. Tuomas really does challenge the group to do everything and anything.
One of ny Favorit 😊

I was at this concert in Tampa,Floor is even more awesome up front and close.As is the band.
That's great that you saw this live.
100%. Saw them in Lowell was 2nd row so like 15 ft from stage …the aura she has has is indescribable and the vocals are so much more impressive being there. There’s something about her voice that just is breathtaking.

I would suggest The Siren , end of the era Concert. Thanks for doing Sahara!!!! awesome song!!!!
This is one of my favorite songs and performances!
Please Check "While your Lips are still red" from Wembley 2015.... i have always tears in my eyes..... Greetings from Germany and sorry for my bad english 😅

Thanks very much!
Oooh - I love it. Thank you! Great floating song.
Floor did sing a lot in this kind of style in After forever.
7 days to the wolves (Wembley) has a mid east feel as well
Thanks for reacting. I always enjoy your commentaries.
Thank you!
👍👍😎😎🤘🤘
If you love the driving guitars and beat in this one you will love Sacrament of Wilderness from their Buenos Aires Concert…..
Awesome! Thank you for that.
Troy adds a lot of atmosphere to this great song playing his guitar with an e-bow. I always see this song as Tuomas' answer to Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir." And the lyrics are "1,001 nights unseen"
Coach likes 1,001 nights of sin better. LOL
Awwwwwsh*t!..
Mrs Coach turning to the dark side?..(Hoping the reference is some Dark Chocolate..is that nut based?)...maybe some Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip?..and windmilling at the same time?..
Anyhoo...
0:40- Coach...the whiskey is AFTER the reaction(s)...😁
Fun Reaction! 👍
LOL, thanks! That made me want Nutella now for some reason.
nice, I like that song too .. (try a instumental "the eyes of Sharbat Gula" no live; In my opinion it is a tribut..)
( And all NW-Songs are good, sometimes you have to liszen 2-3 times but they are all good)
very good pick of song. love this live version, and as always love your reactions/commentaries,
Thanks so much!
One great thing on this piece is that bass has those moments to shine.
(Yeah, sure it's always excellent, but this time there's those more audible and more important moments. )
Emppu flubs a note 3:25 and Tuomas'' reaction to it is funny 3:45
That's great! Didn't notice that.
No the first song to show for new reactors to Nightwish are Ghost love score live at Wacken 2013 the most reacted song in the history of youtube and the most reacted song year after years . The reactors are blown away after Ghost love score
Everyone has preferences...this blew Coach away far more, and others have also said it's their favorite. GLS intrigued me, but definitely did not blow me away.
One of my favorite songs. I wish there were more available performances from this particular Tampa concert. If there is I don’t know about it.
Coach went 'rogue', well you picked well.👍👍☺ Good choice. Concert was March 2016. As you see, they play smaller venues here in the US. This song doesn't get reacted to often, but it should. Thank you.Anette era song, from Dark Passion Play album. A history of Egypt from a fantasy perspective.
Just a bit off coach, 🤣. The lyric is "1001 nights UNSEEN", and is a reference to a collection of Arabic Tales, which includes Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves.
LOL! Well, it will always be my "misheard lyric"...speaking of which Peter Kay's comedy on that topic is one of the most viewed videos on our channel. Haha!
Welcome to Florida.... I'm about an hour north of Tampa. Good luck on your move.
Thank you. Moving in a few weeks.
@@CoachCastTVZephyrhills Floorida here 🤘✌️👍
@@tomdog78 Awesome! Welcome!
A favorite of mine too....also great as it's Tampa and I'm from/live in Orlando. Good luck on your move. Tampa Bay area is great.
That's awesome. We appreciate it. Looking forward to getting settled in.
Hey there Mr & Mrs Coach, a great chugging song that often gets missed among the other gems. The orchestral parts are very much instrumental (no pun intended) here. Floor's vocals showcased here I feel. Empuu's guitar solo, as short as it was, outstanding. This song is 'dark treacle'. Mrs Coach nailed it about Tuomas, he writes to incorporate the singer's abilities. By the way, I love whiskey and ice cream so a whiskey ice cream treat would do me. From one nut to another, great reaction. Cheers, Rich
Haha, thank you so much. Always good to hear from you!
Hi Mr and Mrs Coach. Some other gems to consider are Edema Ruh, Endlessness, and SAGAN (about Carl Sagan) - Some are never done live but beautiful fan videos are out there.
I suggest two songs from them that fits both of you, the Rock‘n‘Roller and Mrs. Coach: First one is „Shoemaker“, raw and solid with an epic ending.
The second is „Tribal“, very catchy! both from the last Album. There is an official Live Video from Tribal. Shoemaker has an epic live Video at Hellfest, but for this song, you could try the official album VersionVideo first, and then the epic live to see how the band does it live (Floor in full Goodess mode!) Greetings from Germany 🔥🤘🫶 P.S. And I‘m still hoping that you’ll react to High Hopes from NW 🫶
Many thanks for those, and we do have High Hopes on the list that we're keeping of suggestions. We're beginning to realize you cannot really go wrong with this band.
@@CoachCastTV That‘s right. And all the best for your moving to your dream house 🏡👍🏻
Thank you!
No rush to get to the biggies, they'll still be here after your move. Since you liked the Middle Eastern feel of this, can I suggest _Tribal?_ Go for the official live video (with clips from multiple shows), but then watch the lyric video so you can properly see the animation happening in the background. Enjoy!
Appreciate that suggestion. Thank you!
@@CoachCastTV You're welcome! Meant to say, you don't need to react to the lyric video too, just watch it for your own enjoyment.
@@elvwood Got it. 😃
If you like this, you must listen to Yannis Papadopoulos' version
can we get more from the other 1000 knights.😁🤘😉
HAHAHA! That wouldn't be suitable for UA-cam.
That's the thing, we're all different in our taste. For example, you still haven't heard any of my top3 Nightwish songs and "the big" ones aren't even on that list. This is why it's extremely hard choosing one starting song that fits all listeners. Nightwish has a song or two for everyone, even if they don't care for the rest.
Freaking love this one. I feel like it’s one of the few that is clearly an “Anette song”. Floor is, as always, wonderful though.
Great reaction, coaches.
Thanks so much!
Watch Shoemaker live at Hellfest please
For oldschool metalheads I personally like to intro with the album Oceanborn because it kicks off with 4 great metal songs and then graduate to the ones with more production :D You've done the first of the 4 so far which was Stargazers, I believe Coach liked that one too.
Indeed, I did. Thank you for mentioning that album.
Hey team ‼️great reaction again 💥coach got roasted about your honeymoon 😂blame it on food poisoning 🤢
LOL...man, let me tell you, that was miserable for about 24 hours. Before and after were great. Don't recommend food poisoning at any time, especially for a honeymoon.
Facts
Sorry to hear you are packing and moving during the hottest part of the year.
Yeah, the timing isn't the best, but it's the way it worked out. Thanks for watching!
This song has added a few elements to "Perfume of the Silence" Did you hear it
I think I suggested this when you mentioned you liking ME flavored sounds a short time back. This was in Florida, probably in 2016, as Floor was pregnant. Maybe they will come back, & you can see them. I need them to come closer to Texas!
Yeah, we appreciate the recommendation even if it was just subliminally stuck in Coach's head somewhere. LOL
Floor wasn't pregnant at this concert. Show was March 2016, Freja was born March 2017.
This song has a bit of the old Led Zeppelin sound.....it's so caching...😊
Oh and I like whiskey too !
😁👍
Good one.
WOW ❤ It’s difficult to choose a best of - because a lot have different tastes… 😂
I am also more interested in heavier stuff. So, my favorite is „Wish I had an angel“. (Wembley with Tarja) or (Wacken with Floor) - I can’t decide which one is better… 😂
But nevertheless I like them all… 👍‼️🏆
Anette's era has a lot of great tracks! While I love Tarja's voice the most, Anette's two albums are so strong! Nightwish, always incredible throughout the ages! :)
@@fredverkerk838 I am well aware, but I am talking about the song and the song was written while Anette was in the band.
Nice videos. I can choose the vocalist every time immediately. I am biased due to 100 reasons. Thanks. good to have the choice. Personal taste matters.
Thank you!
🤘😁🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯👍
👰🏼♀️LOVEBITESRULES👰🏼♀️
A great song IMO
Written for Annette, Floor as usual brings it to a different level.
This isn't the only Tuomas song that has the Eastern feel (created by using suspended pentatonic or harmonic minor scales).
You get a similar feeling, as you might expect from the names, in Tutankhamun and Pharaoh Sails to Orion .
In this performance, Flors snake charming dance adds to the whole atmosphere, but I love Emppu's guitar too.
I do have a spreadsheet of all the 30+ concerts I have on video with the best performances of every song (IMO) highlighted and have sent it to rectors before so they can use it (actually, put it on Google Drive).
Oh, thanks for mentioning those others!
How was that ice cream and whiskey? We don't intend to put you to work. However, if you understand the overall concept and story of the songs. will allow you to more fully grasp the emotion and lyrical concepts of these songs.
Highly underrated song. I also love it and music using the harmonic minor keys to achieve middle eastern vibe.
Sounds like your honeymoon was a night to remember. Or was it more like to following 1000 nights.
Be well my friends.
LOL...yeah we don't recommend food poisoning at any time, especially the first night of a honeymoon. But 37 years later, it's all good. Definitely loved this one!
@@CoachCastTV Here's to many more blissful years together. 🥂🥂
@@Thorgrim247 Thank you so much. That's what we hope, also.
