Nightwish is a lifetime journey to humanity. It's only love ❤️ Greets from Finland
Floor doesn't play Wonder Woman, Floor is a real life Wonder Woman.
BrianK 70 Amen to that👍🎃
No. She is a warrior Valkyrie brought down from Valhalla to save humanity from shitty pop and mumble rap.
Nope. Nope. Nope. Floor Jansen, Goddess of Vocals and the stage (and humility).
Floor = Valkyrie
Kinda like Macross lol 😆
I can listen to Amy Lee play piano and sing all day but honestly Floor is vocally at another level.
Nightwish and Floor Jansen are match made in heaven. There are no one else like them right now.
@JS 09 I'm pretty sure it's because people that are not into metal, and aren't familiar at all with symphonic metal and these singers, don't know what else to compare it to but with Amy, because pretty much everyone at some point has listened to a song or two by Evanescence.
Perfect voice for the song
They are great vocalist.Don't need to compare them :)
@@notquitemytempo1353 True, and most sopranos, whether mezzo or full on, have a few parts of their voice that leans towards other sopranos ( probably why Floor sounds so great with Simone, ) so the underlying quality is there and makes Amy a logical conclusion. Once people start hearing Floor's versatility, it's like 'Whoa, ok large difference', but as a first listen, they won't know that and will compare to someone their ears do know until they start hearing more differences ( like her growls and just unearthly ability to switch styles )
I feel like I went through a whole life's journey listening to this song...wow!
Try "the Greatest show on earth" by them then. 20+ minutes of a song about the earth, life and mankind.
Hear that stomping sound? That's the whole Nightwish Army rounding up on you.
Great reaction, subbed.
Nightwish The Greatest Show on earth and Romanticede are awesome, maybe react to those when you have time. Also Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom of the Opera is worth checking out.
It's called a 'score' for that reason. (A score may contain the single part for a solo work or the many parts that make up an orchestral or ensemble composition.)
Interview with Floor just came out, it's exactly what you're looking for! ua-cam.com/video/37APAmmne3U/v-deo.html
She does have a big mouth, which is partly why her voice sounds as good as it does. She's a soprano, but her being very tall and having a large mouth allows for lower harmonics to come through, which gives her voice a sort of warmth and breadth, even at high pitch.
"She reminds me of Evanescence"
Floor: "Hold my beer"
🤘😁🤘
Hold my mic 😏
Except Floor's not a jackass and wouldn't make a comment like that. 🙄
hold my xena outfit*
Floor Jensen, first of her name, queen of the Valkyries, lady of Nightwish, sovereign of mortal souls, protector of our metal Realm. Long may she reign.
I will watch as many Ghost Love Score reactions as I can in one sitting just to hear it over and over and see other people fall in love with this version 💖💖
I was 61 years old and checking out UA-cam. I came across one of their songs. Gabriel gave you the background information down below. When I discovered them it was with their 1st singer Tarja. Then they had Anette and then and now is Floor Jansen. I have been in love with them since. I am now 65. They have gotten me through some tough times. The fans are very passionate. But they are the kindest most caring group of people that I have the honor to be a part of. I hope you give them a chance. They have all types of music. You never know what is coming next when you hear one of their songs. Sorry I am babbling. I get that way when I talk about them. Thank you for doing this song. I hope you do more of them.............. :-)
We like it when you babble Ann.
@@casualcarolinafishing5835 I love you too.... :-)
Hi Ann,got bored so i went on an Ann Easter egg hunt :)
Ann babble is always Fantastic!!! 😁🤘❤️🤘
Ann talks like there would be some "them" NW fans, while she herself is one of the most passionate, kind, caring (etc) fan among us :):)
What she says you can take for given...
Nightwish is so versatile, they get heavy. Try Romanticide from the same show.
This was her first gig with the band and she only got 48 hours to learn the whole set👌she is amazing, nobody gets near to her she is an amazonian warrior princess indeed a siren x
No, it was not.
They are so versatile and can get pretty heavy, check out Romanticide, Ghost River or Yours is an Empty Hope 🤘
Yes I second you check out Romanticide for a heavier side of her.
or her full on fry screams on Yours is an Empty Hope.
Cant get enough of this band and Im 70 years old
73 here.
After seeing around two dozen different reactions to this, the most common initial impressions are:
"WOW!",
"EPIC!",
...and the listener's jaw dropping.
This voice still after more than a hour already into the concert...... That is just another level!
Welcome to the best LIVE band playing today and the most versatile lead vocalist, The Dutch dynamo, all 6' 1" Floor Jansen a/k/a the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal. Here at the great Wacken Open Air Festival Floor and the band performed before 80,000+ fans and put on one of the best LIVE concert ever. You never just listen to or hear this band or Floor you experience them. The Evanescence and Amy Lee reference is likely the only real North American band that play some symphonic metal music however, there is no comparison as Nightwish is world class musicians with arguably the best female vocalist singing today. She just finished a TV show where in the first 4 episodes she sang songs fromn4 different genres and in 4 different languages! There is nothing she can't sing and as for the opera training she had 1 year of it but found it too constraining so she move onto metal and has been doing this since her teen years with metal bands. Here she showed off her power, range and stage presence in just one of the 15 songs in this set list (this was near the end of the show and her and the band were still going full tilt). If you were impressed, well you haven't even scratched the surface, metal, ballads, folk metal, jazz, Pop you name it this band can play it and Floor can sing it. BTW she doesn't need to play Wonder Woman she is Wonder Woman and the nicest, sweetest most talented non-diva you will ever meet, everyone loves this woman and she really appreciates her fans. If you want to here more stay with this Wacken concert. If you want to hear her opera voice then try this Phantom of the Opera (ua-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/v-deo.html) done with her idol the Dutch Opera singer Henk Poort on LIVE Dutch TV (no reaction needed unless you want to but you need to see this performance). For metal try Romanticide (ua-cam.com/video/zz_7OCCQlXs/v-deo.html).
81,999 ecstatic fans...+ Straw hat dude.
You forgot: "The flying dutchwoman". Quote from the first shows when Marco presented her ;)
In an interview she said she would have trouble with a French rap song, but she excludes nothing.
@@jhcfight French rap. She really has to dig deep into the obscure to find a real challenge. Also, I don't think French is the biggest issue for her, tbh...
@@jhcfight Picturing Floor with lots of gold chains, sunglasses and a bandetta (LMAO) that was a priceless comment!!!
Nightwish is more like an experience than just music. It's like every song is a movie on their own. They are great story tellers through music and voice.
It really says a lot about Nightwish's professionalism that she's their 3rd vocalist yet the other members, who, lets face it, are absolutely bringing their A-Game (including the Keyboardist, who also wrote the song), yet they all let her be the center of attention.
They're all immensely talented yet they all let themselves be part of the backdrop. That's professionalism right there!
Welcome to the Nightwish Army! YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!!!
She can growl. But probably you will be most blown away by her recent performance on Dutch TV of a duet with a Dutch Baritone Named Henk Poort of Phantom of the Opera. Uh...she can sing pretty much everything. She took a year of opera conservatory, as part of her 6 years of music theater. She has always been metal from the start.Even before her studies she was part of a Dutch symphonic/goth metal band After Forever. In 2009 she started Revamp, they put out 2 albums, Then Nightwish came out of the sky and scooped her up. She is without a doubt one of or the most versatile trained voices in the world. Also some say she has 4 octaves. She has said that while she recognized that she had operatic qualities, metal was always her first choice. Nightwish has a new album out in the spring, we, the Nightwish Army, can't fucking wait. She has also confirmed that despite her recent adventures in the pop world, Nightwish is her home.
That feeling in Your body and mind is called a Floorgasm!❤ Welcome to the club, we all have had those. In some songs multible. Yes, sounds Nightwish to me!😁
Jäbä on herännyt! Oliko kova tauti?
Yes, Floor Jansen has classical training and she is/was also a vocal coach.
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.
ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
The Nightwish Army is incoming!
Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
That combination of warm feelings and "i wanna hug the whole world" stuff is called a Floorgasmn and congrats You just got one.
If that camera of yours cannot focus on the real beautiful things it's pointed to, I'd throw it away! Jokes aside, what a nice reaction! When I heard Nightwish - with this song - for the first time I thought 'Yes, music has a future; there still is quality out there.' Be prepared for an invasion of the Nightwish Army, as we avid fans love to call ourselves. The band has a lot to offer having a vast catalog of 100+ songs in a wide variety of styles. I invite you to jump on that train and explore and enjoy the Wonderful World of Nightwish. Keep those great reactions coming !!!
'Sound like a movie score' That's exactly how Tuomas writes. For his story to tell he thinks of it like a movie and compose the score for it.
jhcfight I'm pretty sure he rearranges Hans Zimmer for half of them lol
Well, the interlude is extremely (almost exactly) the same as one of the scores from the "Conan the Barbarian" soundtrack (the original 1980's version w/ Arnold from Basil Poulodoris(sp?), not the Destroyer or the remake).
@@aloysiuswhiteboat2934 Hans Zimmer has said that he considers Tuomas his equal.
This is usually how it works. You react to Ghost Love Score with your mouth open, saying wtf? How was your first 'Floorgasm'? Then comes another one from the same show (Wacken 2013). Then, you find yourself reacting to all the songs from that show. Then one day you upgrade, reacting to The Poet and The Pendulum and you realize that you're seeing the world with different eyes, like you've never seen it before. Welcome.
Floor is classically trained and is our 6'-1" Valkyrie of metal. And if you like heavier music, try Romanticide from the same concert (or any song from this concert. It was an epic show and I wished I could have been there). Also, be prepared, the Nightwish army will be knocking on your channel shortly.
I so enjoy watching people discover Nightwish 🥰
I love how your eyes started glowing of joy,and then just a huge variations of expressions!😍💞 Achievement Unlocked: You Have Been Floor`d!😏That is what Floor Jansen does to you,suck you in,hypnotize you,make you full of emotions,then leaves you with a huge smile on her face. And you keep on coming back for more,you just cant explain why🤣 Best versatile singer there has ever been,i have called it for a few years allready! Nightwish Army tends to call this song Ghost Love Floor now.
The music is called symphonic metal and i very populair in Europe and South America. The band is from Finland and founded 1996. So far the band has had 3 vocalists
1 Tarja Turunen (Finish) pure opera voice also very good live. (until 2005)
2 Anette Olzon (Schwedish) more pop style. fine in the studio but not good live. (until 2012)
3 Floor Jansen* (Dutch) (current)
. * She is the vocalist you saw in this clip. She has a classical vocal background education and can sing any style she likes from jazz to opera high to growling low. Believe me when i tell you you have not even scratched the surface yet of what she's capable of.
Band members
Tuomas Holopainen (The keyboard player and creative mind behind the band. He writes about 95% of the music and lyrics)
Marco Hietela (the viking with the long beard (Bass and vocals)
Jukka "Julius" Nevalainen (The drummer)
Erno "Emppu" Vuorinen (the hobbit like guitar player)
Troy Donockley ( a person who did not play on this song but is a multi instrumentalist from the UK)
The clip was shot a few months after Floor jointed the band right in the middle of their US leg of the world tour. They asked her to join after tensions between the previous (Anette) vocalist and the rest of the band had rissen so high that they fired her. With close to a year still to go to complete the tour, and their next concert planned 2 day later they, needed a replacement fast. They called Floor because she had toured with them when she was part of the support bands"After Forever" and later "Revamp" on several occasions and they were quiet impressed by her vocals (who would not be?). She only had 2 days, including a flight from the Netherlands to the US, to learn the setlist and only had one rehearsal with the band a couple of hours before her first show and nailed it. Since they were making a documentary about the worldtour a lot of what happened was recorded. The documentary is called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" (ua-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/v-deo.html )
As a next song to take a look at i would recommend their masterpiece "The poet and the pendulum" live at Wembley. Before you take a look at it i would recommend to take a look at the backstory of this song. This will make you appreciate it much more. here is the link ua-cam.com/video/gbn9GczYBkw/v-deo.html
BTW that last note she just sang? Nightwish fan created a whole new word for when she does something impressive like that. We call it a Floorgasm. Welcome to the club and boy are you going to receive a lot of traffic on your channel. ;-)
When I first watched Nightwish, I was intrigued. That was with Tarja in 2004. I quickly came to love them for their unusual, romantic metal and Tarja's fantastic voice and opera-style singing. Then Anette joined in 2007, and I lost interest. I rediscovered them in January 2019 with Floor and was completely blown away by her singing and by her performances, and by extension the woman, who combines so much talent and dedication and professionalism and taste and courage and chutzpah and confidence and beauty and elegance in one person. I think you will hear many similar stories from many others.
This is one of their mellower songs. I second the suggestions Romanticide, Song of Myself, or Yours Is An Empty Hope as next songs to listen/react to (all live).
I would also like to applaud you for your open, intelligent and articulate reactions. A pleasure to watch.
Outside Context Problem same. I stopped listening to them when Tarja left and just rediscovered them. I’m so mad that I missed 7 years of Floor
@@cassiewinters331 Luckily it's all still there to watch, but I'm really miffed that I missed the Decades concert in November 2018 in Berlin, just two months before I rediscovered them. That won't happen again; just ordered tickets for their show in Berlin on December 14, 2020.
@@oliphant2848 I have to agree with that assessment. I couldn't stand "she who shall not be named", but I got lucky and rediscovered them at the end of last year/first part of this year. For me it wasn't a "Tarja is Nightwish" deal but more along the lines of the 2nd singer's voice just grated on my nerves. I did have my issues with Tarja like her accent was thick at times, but overall I enjoyed listening to her. The other one well....to me she goes in the same folder I put Taylor Swift and her ilk in, the folder of "stuff I just can't listen to".
@@Jessica271555 She was okay-ish I guess, but didn't fit the style. I still wonder why they picked her then.
@@oliphant2848 That is one of those mysteries that we will never know the answer to lol. I like to imagine that Tuomas didn't think the world was ready to hear Floor in Nightwish at that time cause that's the only thing that makes sense to me.
Great reaction MadGebs thank you !! 👍 Anything you say about this woman is not going to be enough...! She's not an Amazon, she's our Queen Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen (Yansen), who looks like an Amazon !!!😂 I'm glad you said "reminds me of Evanescence" at the beginning of the video, because I'm positive you have changed you mind by the end..!!! There is no comparison between Floor and any other singer !!! She's unique and she can sing any genre you can imagine!!! Just check any Nightwish live show after 2012 - up to date
and a Dutch TV show Beste Zangers (best singers) 2019 and you'll understand what "perfection at its best" means !!! Next try any song from the same live Wacken Open Air Festival 2012 or Tampere 2015 or Wembley 2015, you won't regret it !!! 🙂🤟🤘
My first reaction to hereing Nightwish was WOW & every song there after! 6 months ago I had no clue, now I can't get enough! Enjoy the journey sweet girl, peace & love😎❤🤗🥀
When she headbangs, my heart stops. Every single time ❤️❤️
"Reminds me of Evanescence"...
Floor Jansen... "Oi, Amy.... Hold my beer!"
i am addicted to reactions of this performance
This was my introduction to Nightwish about 6 1/2 years ago. I'd been a fan of the vocalist (Floor Jansen) for a while so when this video was released (to promote the upcoming live album), I checked it out simply because of her.
At the time of this recording, she was not yet a full-time member of the band. She was literally filling in for the singer at the time (Annette Olzen) who was on maternity leave. The fact that Floor took this song and completely owned it was so impressive to me. (Needless to say, I bought the live release when it came out.)
Exactly your reaction was my reaction this is the only metal band that the words to discribed it are not only heavy but angelic, beautiful, visually stunning. Great and honest reaction have love this band form the first singer thru the second female singer to now Floor.stay with live and I agree with others go with Romanticide, next Storytime , and Yours is an Empty Hope from Nightwish Cruise. Anything live is gold good luck on your journey. They are special the Nightwish army will be their to help you🤘
Congratulations - and you're about to be inundated by the Nightwish Army. Many great Nightwish songs to review. And for sure - Check out Floor Jansen on the recent 'Beste Zangers' show from the Netherlands, must watch all her performances on all 8 episodes. Such versatility: Opera, Ballads, Pop, in German, Dutch, Spanish, English - they are literally blowing up the internet!
Nice reaction. I suggest "Song of Myself" and "Storytime" from this same Wacken 2013 concert.
Two of my favorites 😃
"Who knew, that Metal could sound so heavenly?"
Me, since 35 years, for example?
EXACTLY . . . I'm 51 years young with long blond curly hair . . . Metal Fan since 1984 !
You said the exact same thing that I thought. Heavenly! When I heard Floor sing, and this was the very first time I heard her or even heard of Nightwish, in this particular video.. I thought this is what heaven will sound like with Floor singing.. her range is incredible on top of just having a beautiful voice.. I’ve watched at least a dozen reaction videos to Ghost Love Score and they are all so similar with reactions almost identical at all the same moments. She blows people away.. I really like her.. my favorite
The nightwish army is incoming. Our devine rock valkyrie has claimed another soul!
My first time listening nightwish was 2 years ago this same video and I was just like you. Storytime, ghost river, dark chest of wonders from this concert are amazing, élan, shudder before the beautiful and yours is an empty hope from wembley 2015 are great too, you can even hear her growling
Awesome performance! Xena Warrior Princess is what came to mind when I first saw this! She looks amazing, as always, in leather!
Hello! Yes, you know something about symphonic metal. Since you started this journey, here are some info that may help you navigate (a short history of the band, concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan):
" Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a female fronted symphonic metal band. They are from Finland.
Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrulmentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen 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 (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 saw 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 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 , Wacken Germany :)
Now you've done it. Better grab your tools. The Floor Jansen rabbit hole is deep. I so love seeing someone else see this for the first time. It never gets old.🤘👍
Never. Gets. Old. 2020 Vision. Soon. Elan.
10:26 hail the Queen. Nice reaction one could see your emotions in your face, thank you.
I watch this and was wow
then I watched it again....then again...
by the 10th time she brought tears to my eyes
thinking this may have been one of the best live performances EVER
Now I know what a "Floorgasm" is
You must watch "please learn the set list in 48 hours " a documentary telling the whole storyline available on UA-cam
Yes, I think the same.
Well not WHOLE storyline, mostly how Floor was called to Nightwish... but interresting still.
Nice reaction. Nightwish is very versatile with their music, I think you will enjoyed it 👌
goosebumps...again again and again every time I hear this masterpiece.
I was lucky to hear this great band live in our little town a few years back..
I loved Tarja I thought no one could replace her and now I love Floor, I'm glad I was wrong. Nightwish forever. (I am sorry for my English)
I have been a fan of symphonic metal since I discovered it about 15 years ago, but my ears didn't respond to Nightwish until the arrival of Floor. Now I can't get enough of them...
Lovely reaction. Listen to Nightwish song is like a journey 👌
An ICONIC performance by Goddess FLOOR.💯
10:06 , classic floorgasm face... But the "SHE HAS A HUGE MOUTH!" I was dying XD
Great Reaction! FYI, there was 82,000+ in the audience at that year's annual W'V'acken open air Metal Festival, in Germany. Ghost Love Score was the 13th of 15 songs that Nightwish performed that night. Like most, I'm sure you will around to reacting some of the other 14. They were that year's (2013) headliners among 50+ bands that performed at the 4-day Event. I would recommend 'Romanticide, which is harder, also 'Ever Dream' or 'Song of Myself' from the same concert, for your next reaction.
"She has a huge mouth" I'm crying I was totally expecting pretty much anything else
The bigger mouth you have the better you sing.
So true! I've watched so many reactions to this vid and that was definitely a first.
Hahahahhahahahahahahah
I don't see her big mouth, she's tall. I see that you like JINJER, yo.
You should see their newly released 'Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean' live in Buenos Aires. It's way heavier, and her Banshee screams will blow you away.
Me: "MadGebs says she likes more heavy metal"
Floor: "Hold my beer"
Song of Myself live @ Wacken 2013
It is also the very next song at the concert without delay. That by itself is amazing.
Welcome to the world of Nightwish. I see many of my fellow soldiers in the Nightwish Army came across you before I did. We are a passionate but loving bunch. I look forward to tracking your journey. You've only just scratched the surface.
I see members of the Nightwish Army have already stormed the battlements!!!! Great reaction! Listen to all of the recommendations....you have just taken your first step into a much larger world! :)
Yup, we settle a camp here for the next few weeks until we conquer this land.
"She has a huge mouth!!!" is my favorite reation to this song yet.... love watching ppl fall in love with Floor. Got tickets to Wembley 18 Dec 2020.
Saying Nightwish reminds you of Evanescence is like saying the Beatles remind you of the Dave Clark 5. Floor Jansen is perfection, and live Nightwish is as good as music gets.
You've just witnessed the one and only Floor Jansen. There's a reason people are infatuated with this woman (myself included). She's one of the best and most versatile singers on the planet (she can also growl), not to mention her hypnotic stage presence. Check out Romanticide, Yours Is an Empty Hope or Song of Myself if you want to hear the heavy side of Nightwish. I think you'll dig it 😉
Great reaction MG. Try Romanticide (Wacken) for heavier Nightwish.
The first time I heard Nightwish was early 2000's with the song Elvenpath. I was immediately sold, as at that time I was also listening to The Gathering, Within Temptation and Epica. When Tarja left, I stopped following them for a few years, until this came out. I knew Floor was the new singer, but I didn't knew she had become so good, as I still remembered her from her After Forever period (where she was still very young)
And yes, she has a huge mouth, but hey, where else is she going to store her whole vocal range :P
I still get chills everytime I watch this performance!
floor is an amazing performer, flawless voice and very beautiful...
Great reaction! Next try "Song of Myself" from the same concert
"I just.. I wanna watch her forever" - MG.. (annnnd ALLLLL THE REST OF US)
We were here !!! 🤘🤘🤘 , Amazing reaction thanks.... The poet and the pendulum - live wembley .
I love how the furniture is in focus. 😋
Her pronunciation and enunciation are remarkable. Others have suggested some ass kickers for you to enjoy, Floor's story really is like the phoenix in that her career was in doubt at one time and as someone said in another posting Floor helped heal Nightwish and Nightwish helped heal Floor. For suggestions I would add 7 days to the wolves (wembley) or ghost river(wacken.)
Song of Myself, Romanticide, and Yours is an Empty Hope show their heavier side.
10:00 the Floorgasm brings yet another convert to the family !! 😁 Welcome Sister. You’re one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie; and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it.
💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙
This is the holy trinity of Nightwish songs live with Floor fronting...
Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013 ua-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/v-deo.html
Greatest Show on Earth live at Tampere 2015 ua-cam.com/video/45brzDJKZ3o/v-deo.html DO NOT CUT THIS OFF EARLY. The Nightwish Army is Murderous behind this Sin. Be Warned. 😏😏
The Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembley 2016 ua-cam.com/video/gbn9GczYBkw/v-deo.html (wait until you have a full understanding of the band’s history before you react to this one. It’ll add the context you need to fully appreciate this emotional masterpiece.)
I saw Nightwish reaction so I'm here. If you want heavier, they do MUCH heavier. They also do love songs, folk metal, Prog metal, opera, even jazz (sometimes in the same song!) Probably the best live band around at the moment.
NIghtwish is Symphonic Metal but there are so many elements from different genre as their music influences. If you wanna try with more heavy stuff with Floor in it maybe you can check 'Romanticide' or 'Ghost River' (from Wacken 2013), and from another concert 'Yours Is An Empty Hope' or '7Days To The Wolf' (live Wembley).
Henk poort and floor jansen from nightwish, fantom of the opera, it's epic.....you have a whole yourney ahead of you 😏😎👍👌🤘
You needed a "big eyes" counter on this one ;)
If you enjoy the heavier side of metal I would recommend the song Yours is an Empty Hope by Nightwish - live @ Wembley version. Floor Jansen (the lead singer in this video) does some growls during the chorus of this song.
Also, for heavier stuff from Floor check out her older bands After Forever and ReVamp. I prefer After Forever myself.
Some fans will also claim that Floor Jansen is an opera singer, but she is not. She has several years of training under her belt though, which does include some classical singing. I believe she focused more on musical theater though (someone can correct me if I'm wrong).
You're semi-right. She did classical training also, but she focussed on musical theatre yes.
If you like the more heavy stuff, look up "romanticide", also from WOA 2013. I was in the crowd that year (it's next to The Netherlands, where i'm from, so not that far away). It was the best performance i've ever seen, what an experience. I will allways remember that year and that Nightwish performance.
That's one awesome drummer!
I Love Nightwish! I have seen them live several times. If you ever get a chance to see them live don't miss them! 😁 I didn't discover Nightwish until a few years ago. I Love Floor, she is awesome. Though, if you want to hear an opera singer, you have to hear their original lead singer. Tarja Turunen...she sounds like an opera singer! 😁
I love the fact you were silent and attentive to the performance... like captivating ! :)))) Daniel from Timisoara sends hugs ! :) Welcme to Nightwish !!!
Thank you for asking. I listened Nightwish as a teenager in the ninetees, when they started up. When Tarja left the band, I stopped. Now I adore Floor. Huge crush on her amazing presence, perfect voice, voice control and stunning appearence. The band itself has always been hardocre, no matter who the singer was. Shout out from Finland! o//
the singer, Floor Jansen, is a trained opera singer. she has fronted a few metal bands. her voice is amazing. check out her singing on a dutch tv show called "best zangers". you will find out how amazing her voice is
You should check out "song of myself" live at Wacken 2013 for a heavier song that is still a journey and if you really want to dive in head first "The poet and the pendulum" live at Wembely 2015!
Great reaction! Nightwish has a wide spectrum of sounds & styles in their music. While they are certainly not the most brutal metal band around, they do get quite a bit heavier. Harder, more "headbangy" songs from them include: "Song of Myself", "Romanticide", "Ghost River" & "Yours is an Empty Hope (both featuring Floor doing some Death Growls, especially the latter), and "Dark Chest of Wonders". See what you think! :D
It was fun watching with you..and I agree it is fascinating to know how they got to where they are! Great job!
It breaks my heart that your camera refused to keep your gorgeous face in focus. Anyway, great reaction, loved how expressive you can be even without saying a word.
This performance of this song has become known as the Bohemian Rhapsody of metal because of all the different styles that Floor and the band go through. Their live shows are absolutely amazing! Check out Romanticide or Song of Myself from this same Waken performance or Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembley for a heavier feeling.
The singer is Floor Jansen. She is the 3rd singer the band has had, she is 6 feet tall and maybe that's why it looks like she has a big mouth. lol Great singer/performer. Range is at a whole new level, diversity is incredible and she can hold those notes for upwards of 8 seconds. May I recommend her performance in the tv show Beste Zangers where she sings a duet with Henk Poort (opera singer) and they do Phantom of the Opera. Enjoy. 😊❤ Beautiful reaction by the way, some of your comments made me laugh. 😂 That was as honest and open of a reaction as I can ask for. I didn't expect anything less. I just finished watching it a second time. lol Thank you. 👍🤘🤘❤
My first thinking when I've discover Nightwish? Finally! I've found this sound I need in my life. It's like I've searching this sound and finally, it's there..
Please react to Nightwish - The poet and the pendulum (Live in Wembley)
Yeah and Greatest show on Earth! Live in Tampere.
Not yet
If you do Poet, its best to know something about the band, its history, especially how they parted with their 1st singer (Tarja Turunen)... if you do few "normal" NW songs, you usually get most of the story along... so its better to wait some. Eventually, doing some research on Google would do the trick too...
Poet is wery good to do video with subtitles (the lyrics play more important part in the song than elsewhere...)
Too soon, Wolf
I LOVE your reaction!
More heavy? Try 'Romanticede', 'Yours is empty hope', 'Ghost River', or their last official live video 'Devil and Dark Deep Ocean'.
I love this song sooooooo much!
Wow nice intensive reaction. Thanks 👍😊
