    Hello Jenn [ JenocydeReacts ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
    Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience.
    About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
    Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
    " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
    Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
    Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen [pronounced Tarr-ya] (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
    There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
    I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "

    Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! 6'1'' Dutch Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! Gabriel Bardac entered !
    This is called Symphonic Metal !!!
    Floor her name is derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring, Flora.
    Floor Jansen is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy.
    Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F6).
    She can sing from classical to belting and raspy vocals like screaming and death growls. And she's also a voice coach and teacher to boot. Plus, huge vocal nerd 😉.
    Floor Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg, where she graduated in 2003. She studied musical theatre and a year of opera. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
    From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon (Second singer of Nightwish after Tarja) as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour (And she had to learn the setlist in 48h). On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer.
    And the master of this magic is:
    Our Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen (founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish)
    Tuomas the keyboardist writes about 95% of Nightwish songs, music and lyrics. He also composes the music for the backing track they use. It is recorded in London with musicians from The London Philharmonics. Pip Williams helps with the orchestration. There are two London based choirs too on the backing track, the other one is a children's choir. And of course with a synth you can do a lot.
    This was recorded at the 2013 Wacken (pronounced Vahken) Open Air festival in Germany in front of an audience of 82,000 people (one of the largest heavy metal festivals in the world and one of the largest open-air festivals in Germany). The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival.
    We hope, that there is more coming.

    Don't worry Jen about discovering Nightwish late. I was not familiar with this band until the beginning of the Covid pandemic, and in the 4 years since, I listen to them nearly every day. With Floor on vocals, they are easily my favorite band of all time, and I've been a rocker/metal head since the early 1980's.

    Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
    got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
    of her vocals.
    We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.

    They are Finnish but there have been a couple of member changes and are now somewhat more international. Floor Jansen is the third and current singer for Nightwish and she's Dutch. Troy Donockley is an Englishman who plays a variety of instruments, among which the uilleann pipes, guitars and various flutes. I don't think he's on stage for this song. Incidentally both of them were not official members yet during this show but were made official members soon after this tour.

I also discovered Nightwish through a "cover" - actually a live performance by a youth rock band and orchestra (my son was playing violin), and _Ghost_ _Love_ _Score_ was my first proper intro to them as performers thanks to a YT recommendation when I was watching a Judas Priest reaction. That was shortly before lockdown, so I had plenty of time to catch up on their back catalogue! Enjoy the rabbithole.

Experienced the 1960s and 70s explosion of music in the area with the early days of the Jefferson Airplane, Doobie Brothers, Tower of Power and many many others. I found Nightwish about 6 years ago. They are the best music I've found in 30 years. Excellent musicians, Tuomas on keys is a genius song writer from sea shanties to Celtic folk, to the big bang and everything between. Then there are the female singers. All 3 are world class with Floor Jansen being with the band since 2013. She will blow your mind. I see Gabriel has contacted you. He has a huge amount of information and really good set list to consider, Nightwish fans are some of the most fun, gracious and kind fans you'll find.

    I am pleased to welcome you to the wonderful world of Nightwish from the UK Oldies Division of Nightwish Army (East Anglian branch). As you delve deeper into their music (as I hope you will) you will find many diverse songs. Symphonic metal is the official genre, but you will find songs ranging from metal to ballads and even a jazz track. I have subscribed to your channel in the hope that you'll keep on watching and listening to Nightwish, especially their live recordings. I saw them live at Wembley in November 2022 and it was the most amazing unforgettable experience. To hear more from them and to get some more info on the band, I suggest you look at Gabriel's post and follow his list or pick and mix from it.

    Indeed, it's never too late. I caught wind of Nightwish in their early years, with their first singer. She was not my taste back then, so I just never kept up with them. I had no idea they parted ways with her in 2005, and I was missing out on something new. Well, I saw this Wacken performance land on my recommended UA-cam page, somewhere in early 2019 and...the rest is history. I'm older now, and tastes have changed, and while I still don't LOVE their first singer, I have grown to love some of their older songs with her singing them. Mostly, I listen to Floor era songs, or Floor singing Anette era songs, but my god, they have a great catalogue, spanning more than 20 years, to dive into. Enjoy the fall!

    When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’.
    Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera).
    'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: ‘Misery’s no Crime’, ‘Wild card’ and ‘Disdain’.
    Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ‘Please learn the setlist in 48 hours’
    Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see.
    Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on UA-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa’ and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered UA-cam in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish.
    Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of these and other presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turned 7 years this march) and Lucy (born last october) ,a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.

    I have seen them in concert at Wembley. I was really looking forward to hearing Floor sing in person. Trouble is, I was surrounded by loads of people singing a long with her. (me included).

    It's great to see whenever someone drops a Nightwish reaction video the Nightwish Army is all over it. As much as I love Nightwish.. their following is evenly as amazing. I was there in 2013. It was epic. It changed my life and I will be forever grateful 🙏

    Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, avec un peu de retard ( beaucoup ) , très bonne réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Vous venez de faire connaissance du métal symphonique et de notre reine Floor, mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Continuez sur le festival du Wacken Open Air 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe et sont à écouter absolument. Vous venez d'écouter la 13ème chanson du set, ensuite faites le Ever Dream qui commence comme une douce ballade voix piano et sur un signe de Marko ( le bassiste ) continue d'accélérer pour finir comme un train à grande vitesse et en même temps de faire la connaissance de la voix de Marko, ou écoutez une petite histoire, un bon rock avec un refrain qui reste longtemps en tête avec Storytime ou alors du plus lourd avec Ghost River pour entendre le mélange magnifique des voix de Floor avec Marko ( merveilleuse harmonie )ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide ..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu, ou être déjà passé ou alors retournez sur votre première réaction au groupe( Un grand MERCI à Gabriel d'avoir repris le flambeau de notre regrettée Anne ) cliquez sur son nom et allez sur communauté, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec le meilleur audio mais ce n'est pas une obligation, juste un sage conseil pour entendre une petite partie du meilleur du groupe. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir, plus de NIGHTWISH s'il vous plait et bienvenu à vous...... Bonne écoute et à bientôt, et un nouvel abonné ici.......Paix sur vous mon amie .......

    Great reaction, you have a new subscriber. Floor Jansen is the greatest and most versatile female singer I have ever heard. She can sing all from opera to death metal growls and all between. She also has a phenomenous stage presence and connection with the audience. Her voice always touches me very deeply, no other female voice is capable to to this. In private life she is a kind, humble and down to earth person who lives on a small farm in Sweden together with her husband, two little daughters and several horses, cats and dogs. Also the other band members are outstanding artists; in this song there are only five of them on stage. The sixth member Troy Donockley has no part in this song, therefore he is not on stage. For more Nightwish follow Gabriel's list; with that you cannot go wrong.

    Excellent reaction.
    Welcome to the word of symphonic metal. Nightwish are one of music’s best kept secrets. I think that when they started, their singer Tarja sung mainly in an operatic voice, and although a good singer I think it made the band too niche. Their current singer Floor Jansen can sing opera, rock, metal and even death metal growls. This has given them a wider appeal.
    I saw them live at Wembley Arena and they were awesome. Just stick to live performances from 2013 onwards and you won’t go far wrong.

    As a fellow brit,I only discovered nightwish 3 years ago.
    They hardly get played on radio,even on rock stations.
    By chance I discovered them on YT by another reaction page.
    Nightwish are better live than on album.

    Greetings from the Nightwish Army, Indonesia. You have now found the biggest and best rabbit hole there is, so welcome. Our leader, Gabriel has made contact I see, so you're in good hands. He will guide you along the path with his list. At this stage I won't add any more, only to say I've subscribed to follow your journey so strap yourself in and enjoy the ride, which is Nightwish.

    Nice first reaction to Nightwish and our Valkyrie Queen! (The sound of the clip could be much louder, yours is ok)🙏
    The keyboard stand was inspired by the Sibelius monument in Helsinki as the keyboardist and genius behind Nightwish (Tuomas Holopainen aka Metal Mozart) is, like lots of Fins, an admirer of their greatest composer Jean Sibelius.
