Ja, Mrs Coach.....for a lot of people the GODDESS got someting magic you cant describe with words.......
She's a Jedi Master, there's no other explanation for me
Yes sir you are correct this is a Tarja song & the reason it had not been played for over ten years is that Anette was unable to sing it
Tarja performed it in her solo career live in Buenos Aires 2011 (Luna Parc Ride).A great performance!
Grettings in states from northern Germany. Hope, you well Robert 🤘
Word.
It seems that not many people know Floor is a High Sensitive Person (her own statement). High sensitivity, also called HSP, appears to occur in about 20% of the population. It is a unique quality (not an illness or condition)! Highly sensitive people have the ability to process sensory stimuli in a different and unique way. Often they are intuitive, highly sensitive to the atmosphere and are able to read and estimate people. Floor uses this fully to her advantage in her singing and performing, better yet, she made an art form out if it (my personal believe). This explains partly why Floor is so overwhelmingly power full in her performances. Her enormous talent, incredible voice, warm and humble personality, flawless technique and hard work is amplified by her highly developed sensitive side...(if you ask me)... and of course she is fueled by the enthusiasm of the Nightwish fans... Floor just brings everything to another level, unreachable for most singers... she really connects you to the songs... and that is what makes the musical masterpieces from Tuomas so much better. Together with her “brothers” from Nightwish they are just one of the best bands around... they make musical art...
Thankyou for explaining a scientific phenomenon that it seems very few people have. It can takes years to realise what it is, and to come to accept that you're different. It's an unspoken, invisible language that allows you to empathize and feel what another person is feeling as tho it was you. It allows you to see well beyond now, and always the mind is processing hundreds of bits of information constantly as you process your surroundings and the people in it. It allows you to see through people like a sheet of glass, and assess situations in a matter of seconds. You have to manage it, or it can be overwhelming. It's hard to explain, but I can understand how Floor is, because it's part of who you are, so is a natural extension and integration of expression. In essence it is a state of being. In academic circles it's related to Phenomenolgy. Hope that makes some sense :) Greetings from New Zealand :)
Hey there Mr & Mrs Coach. The voice is back and on form again. Mrs Coach is right, Floor does have a 'presence' on stage, I put on a Nightwish video when I am doing something on my computer but I have to stop and watch it and delay what I was doing. Nightwish are a journey and an experience. Another top reaction and look forward to the next song. Cheers, Rich
Thanks so much! We definitely enjoyed this one.
❤..It is LadyTarjas song..Floory do it very well..❤
You two are adorable.
It is amazing how music can unite us all !! ❤
Are you from Tennessee? Im in Knoxville and it sure makes me happy to see the USA starting to appreciate this wonderful.band!
@@CandaceMedeiros I live in Brisbane,Australia,not sure about Coach and Mrs.Coach !!😊
I love this song from the bottom of my heart!!!
Thans for sharing your reaction to a song suggesting that while looking up at the stars may seem futile, it is actually a powerful path to understanding the reality of life and finding strength to face its difficulties. We are the stargazers on the planet Earth (the mother) riding through space accompanied by the Moon (the child).
P.S. This was originally written for Tarja.
And this is Floor, Dutch singing on Tarjas turf. In Finland 😈🇧🇻😎
To Coach. On the ice.
I’m some one.
Nightwish is the best band ever. So complex, beutiful, full of emotions music... Just amazing!
Check out their cover of High Hopes (cover of PinK Floyd's song) - that one is absolute masterpiece! Performed live during End Of An Era tour. You will love it.
And if you want to check out a new artist, then I highly recommend you Devin Townsend. The best way to start with Dev is him performing song Kingdom (live at EMGtv). Mr. Coatch will be very pleased and something tells me that Mrs. Coatch won't be grumpy over it neither. 😏
I really appreciate your NW reactions, thank you very much for this one too. I'm always happy at the weekend when a new Nightwish reaction fromCCTV comes out. Take care and have a good time!
That's very kind of you to say, and we truly appreciate you!
Hey team ‼️the best part about that one was the music⭐️anyway ,happy fathers coach 💥drink responsibly 😊
No drinks for Coach today but appreciate it very much!
nice reaction for more floor how s the heart acoustic version frm planet rock
Coach gives his old schoolness away by wearing his AC/DC hat. I’m with you man, lifetime fan!
😁👍
❤❤❤
Y'all really should check out the same song Stargazers from Tarja's solo concert in Buenos Aires 2010. The energy from the band and audience is ridiculous. Also Tarja's interaction with her fans is amazing
Floor's Power is undeniable. And you are correct, it is from Tarja Era !
And this concert was very special for Floor ( Her Parents where there ❤).
The meaning of the song appears to be a poetic comparison between the Earth drifting through space and the way an ancient mariners would use the stars for navigation, and the music adds the proper epic drama of the process. Clarifying some of the metaphors, the "third vagrant" is the Earth as it is the third planet from the Sun, the "mother and child" are the Earth and Moon, "hydrogen lakes" describes both the fact that water is partially hydrogen, and that the space in our solar system is mostly hydrogen, "ambrosial merry-go-round" refers to the forever orbiting of the planet.
NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing that info.
Nice reaction, thank you .
I suggest Mrs Coach to take a look in Floor at Beste Zangers 2019 performing Winner ,
Congratulations from Brazil.
I concure: the Annika Hausen analysis is the top for " The Poet and the pendulum". It is very long and detailed, also interesting are a few comments on it at the end of that analysis.
When you do Phantom of opera. Need to do one with Tarja in 05 and more recent one with Floor in 22. Both excellent but different male singers. Post and Petulum might be one if Floors best performances. But back story if this song was how hard breakup was with original singer. There was an open letter. Might be good to talk about.
Good info. Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to those two masterpieces.
nightwish the greatest show on earth live wembley - the best of all
Do The Tampere version, it's better
I wait every weekend just to see your lovely faces. See you both next time.
You are very kind to say that. Thanks so much!
Hi Coaches
Have a great monday.
I love Nightwish
I suggest two videos: Gethsemane Live in Buenos Aires (symphonic as it best) and the Pink Floyd cover (High Hopes). Thank UA-cam
Thanks so much. We hope your day is great also. 👍
Don't forget greatest show on earth must be from tampere
As much as we love Floor, this song is for Tarja and I personally love her extremely operatic voice in combo with this fast fun song. Floor kills it obviously but Tarjas version makes it feel otherworldly 🥰💖
Forgot this
🤘❣️
Definitely an homage to the Tarja-era.
While the vocals may be jarring to hear in that classical/operatic manner, it would be jarring (to Nightwish fans) to hear them sung in any other style.
...unless, of course, Floor GROWLED the entire thing.
Hey, here is something I know you would find interesting to react to:
The newly released song from another Finnish cello metal band called Apocalyptica.
Check out their song (official video) named "One" featuring James Hetfield and Rob Trujillo from Metallica. I know you will like what you hear! 🤟😎 Its epic!
Day 4 of asking for slayer raining blood Live 2010
Marko's bass lines through out this song are amazing. That guy is one fine bass player considering he's trained in classical guitar. Hey Coach, wait until you see Empuu and Tuomas have a shred off between lead guitar and keyboard in "Shudder Before the Beautiful". $100 says you just shake your head in disbelief. I've never seen anything like it. Mrs. Coach, the word you're trying to come up with that best describes Floor - she has IT - - - problem is, nobody has ever come with a way to describe what IT is.
LOL...but IT is amazing. Thanks for the suggestion.
You guys should do Planet Hell (Official Live) with Anette just to get another Anette song in. There aren't a lot high sound quality Anette vids out there but this is one of them and its fantastic. It was originally a Tarja era song and its been done by Floor a lot but Anette's version is by far my favorite. You will see a totally different side of Anette than you saw in Slow, Love, Slow as this is a heavy song where she really gets to belt. It also heavily features Marko. ua-cam.com/video/z_SlXqJjIO4/v-deo.html&ab_channel=NuclearBlastRecords
Oh, that sounds interesting. Thanks for mentioning it.
Please don't do The Greatest Show on Earth yet. It is a song that is better later than too soon.
When you do it, please do the Tampere version. Wembley is great too ofcourse, but Tampere is the best. Or you could do both.
Gabriel's list really is the best to follow, in my opinion.
Not one of my top Nightwish songs. But I believe that is because I don’t enjoy the overly operatic Tarja style vocals.
🇬🇧 Norfolk : let’s do this Tuomas at his best backed up by the rest of the team 😊
Nailed it Coach. An earlier Tarja song. This is why it had not been performed for 10 years. Annette was not able to do the operatic vocal style. This was inspired by Tuomas' love of astronomy and his appreciation of science and the universe.
To put this in context,this was Nightwish back on home soil at Tampere in Finland with Floor and Troy.
This was recorded in July I believe, and because Finland is on the edge of the Arctic circle this was still late in the evening but still partly light.
Floor and Troy were not only embraced by the Finns,but everyone around the World.
Thank you both for embracing light,love and the Nightwish Army !! ❤
Nightwish does not have a bad song!!!
If Floor opens her mouth there's only 1 thing you can do: YOU HAVE TO LISTEN AND LOOK AT HER. She catches your attention ❤😍
Floor can sing anything - any genre.
Enjoying following your Nightwish Journey. This was definitely a Tarja song originally. Floor kept to the original style here. Poet and the Pendulum is primarily the one where background is helpful. I think another song performance that is a good lead in to it and the mind of Tuomas is Dead Boys Poem. That is also a Tarja era song, but Floor makes that one more of her own style, and it is one of my favorites, and has my favorite solo from Emppu. Keep exploring Nightwish.
Appreciate the comment and the info about the other song.
A very young Tuomas wrote this song and it was released as the first song on the Oceanborn album in 1998. The lyrics are interesting, showing that he was at that age already thinking about the universe, earth, evolution and mankind. And that was probably the reason it was added to the setlist of this tour: the subject fits the last 2 albums of the band: the universe, earth, evolution and us.
Tragedienne of heavens is the earth (as it is full of tragedies, evolution being the biggest non stop tragedy)
Watching the eyes of the night (the stars)
Sailing the virgin oceans (earth sailing through empty space)
A Planetride for Mother and Child (earth and moon)
Tuomas knows something about the history of astronomy: "Following the pages of Almagest"
(Wikipedia :-) The Almagest is a 2nd-century Greek-language mathematical and astronomical treatise on the apparent motions of the stars and planetary paths, written by Claudius Ptolemy (AD 100 - 170). One of the most influential scientific texts in history.
BTW The Wembley 2015 version of this song is almost not reacted to, but as good as this one (And Marko whistling...)
This is great background info on the song. Thank you for sharing.
Correct, it is a Tarja era song, from the 2nd album, Oceanborn, in 1998. It hadn't been played since before Tarja parted with NW in 2005. The operatic vocals aren't in Anette's wheelhouse, so it was one of the songs that got put away. They brought it back, not only because Floor can sing this style, but it fit in with the Endless Forms Most Beautiful album themes of science and reason. This Tampere 2015 show was on the EFMB tour.
Coach, since you mentioned Tuomas' keyboards, check out a song with a keyboard solo, "The Siren" from 2005 Helsinki (End of an Era DVD), Tarja and Marko on vocals, And of course, "Phantom of the Opera" that Mrs. Coach mentioned, from that same 2005 concert.
Thanks for these suggestions!
Planet Hell has a killer keyboard solo, specially the live version from End Of An Era
I would add Shudder Before the Beautiful. The show opener for this tour, the Wembley performance is my favorite. It features a keyboard/guitar battle between Tuomas and Emppu.
This is the first Nightwish song I ever listened to, way back in 1999… It was great with Tarja 25 years ago, but Floor takes it to a whole new dimension! It was off their set list for years because Annette didn’t have the operatic skill that the song requires, but that is not an issue with Floor. In fact, Floor’s performance of this song is my favorite 😊
Nice! When you react to The Greatest Show on Earth make sure you choose the version from this concert at Tampere - mindblowing!
I second this proposal heavily! Definitely the Tampere version of the Greatest Show on Earth
Enjoyed your reaction. Fun fact. Floor asked Tuomas if they could include Sleeping Sun in the setlist for the tour. It is also an old Tarja era song that was commissioned by their then German label to be released with 3 other songs on Aug 2, 1999 to coincide with the total solar eclipse that occurred on Aug 11. Tuomas wasn't happy about having to write the song, especially since it the label wanted it to be no more than 3 minutes (It was 4 minutes long. Tuomas's small rebellion) but it was a favorite of Floor's since it is such a beautiful ballad. Tuomas agreed to add it to the setlist if he could add Stargazers since it is one of his favorites and thus it was added to the setlist. You should definitely react to Sleeping Sun. One of the songs where I love both Tarja and Floor's performance. Highly recommend a double reaction. There is a great live version with Tarja from the End of an Era concert but I have to admit my favorite is the 2005 music video with Tarja striding across medieval battlefield like a Valkyrie. ua-cam.com/video/_yMCSDbwaCo/v-deo.htmlsi=ztaf39SCIT0naKN4. For Floor either the live performance from Tampere or from Masters of Rock (which is my favorite).
Definitely understand the backstory of Poet and the Pendulum. It will definitely emotionally hit a lot harder if you know where Tuomas was personally at. I highly recommend reading the lyrical analysis by the artist Annika Hausen. It is a fantastic and illuminating dive into the song. I would provide a link but YT deletes my comment every time I do. Just google her name and poet and it will get you there. If you feel it might give to much away then just read the open letters by the band and Tarja and perhaps some commentary on other reactions as well as interviews with Tuomas. The most important point is that the song was Tuomas's way of dealing with the deep depression he experienced when Nightwish's fans turned on him after the band fired Tarja.
This is great info and we appreciate the time you took to provide it for us. Thank you!
ua-cam.com/video/dcKrSpAxbnE/v-deo.htmlsi=7Jnber-g76yd4Gxe this is Floor singing O Mio Bambino Caro in a Revamp Concert.
Not as accomplished as Tarja regarding classical singing .....Floor studied for a year , she particularly didnt like it .
She did alot more classical singing with her first band After Forever.
Floors versatility is what seperates her from most vocalist.
A song originally written for and recorded by Tarja, who has operatic training, it was not played again until they could bring in another vocalist who also had operatic training which is Floor Jansen - no disrespect for Anette but, I don't believe, Tuomas was going to even try this song live with her more limited range
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 Great Job again and It is completely true what you give in response to this song
Thank you 🙌
If you go for the poet and the pendulum I would like to recommend the live performance with the lyrics and names of the chapters. It gives a bit more context to the song. The Video is called The Poet And The Pendulum - Nightwish. HQ with lyrics. Live @ Wembley 2016. Let the name not fool you. The concert is the one from 2015 that everyone likes to watch. Just with lyrics. I think the title just got the year wrong.
Thank you for this info.
Hi Guys, I am a big Nightwish army member. You should put the Danish band "Within Temptation" on the reaction list. Somewhat similar to Nightwish and has sold more albums. Try the songs "Faster" or "The Reckoning". Explain the bands to "The Hu" songs "Wolf Totem" or "Black Thunder". Good luck.
First!
Great song and one of best Nightwish albums in my opinion. I remember when I listened to Oceanborn album for first time, this song took me into space from first seconds (it opened Oceanborn). Yes song is recorded with Tarja. Half of songs you have on your channel were recorded with Tarja. They are Stargazers, Wishmaster, Dark Chest of Wonders, Ghost Love Score, Ever Dream, End of All Hope, Romanticide. I hope you will get to know original rendition of these songs someday.
It was a joy also always to see you react to NW. Can‘t wait to see you to react to High Hopes (for this you don‘t have to prepare, just enjoy), Shoemaker (live at Hellfest!) The greatest show on earth and The poet and the pendulum. Greetings and love from Germany 🤘❣️
Everytime when I watch the two of you, I have a big smile on my face. Thank you for your funny comments😅
We are pleased to bring a little joy into the world. Thank you for making our day with your kind comment.
Transparent Aura, well thats an great WAy to describe when you expirience Floor live:) thc for this recap. And Yes this an OLD Song, and i love to Hear it from both Singers, both unique Versions for their Time.
Stay healthy!
You thought they were finnish (ed.. Yes they are finnish.....
Haha, well played.
Not one of my favorites, definetely for Tarja style of singing.
That particular concert was amazing, every single song.
She is 6’-1” she just towers on the stage! She is a goddess!🤘🎸
Like this choice. Old school NW is fun to listen to, and I like the body to the vocals Floor brings in the old Tarja songs, whereas the original versions had a bit more of the traditional thinner sound standard Opera uses
One of my least favourite nw songs.
This song and the whole Oceanborn album is full of great "metal keyboards", influenced by another Finnish band that was big at the time, Stratovarius.
FLoorever a goddess
As usual, love it! Best band on the planet! Really need to try one of your own, Beth Hart, she’s amazing blues singer! Try ‘ Caught on in the rain live 🏴
Yes...Floor has something you can't explain
I'm not sure you have done quite enough styles to get to Poet ???
I would like to see some more of the Wembley concert before you get to Poet which is my top NW song. Wembley 2015 is the version to do
Stargazers is reminiscent of Sacrament of Wilderness and a couple of others, though this is one where Floor uses a more truly operatic tone than most - in many cases what people call operatic is not really using the resonators in the way true opera does but in this one Floor does.
P.S. I should mention that the album containing this was released before Tarja says she felt she knew what she was doing with her voice.
It makes sense that the keyboards are so well done in Nightwish songs. The composition is most often done by Tuomas on his keyboard(s), and then everything else is layered on top. So the keyboards aren't added or injected, they are the foundation.
Makes perfect sense.
Good one.
Becoming a great playlist Mrs Coach !! Keep on exploring and adding :-) Also try more Lovebites (they were great yesterday in Belgium) or Epica or Wintersun…..
We filmed another Lovebites yesterday, in fact.
@@CoachCastTV hmmm, very curious. Last night was a blast in Belgium. they’re so good and yet so human.
This is a Tarja's song (try luna park 2011). I dont like with Floor😅
