- Finland-based symphonic Metal storytellers Nightwish release their upcoming new album, 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful', in spring 2015 via Nuclear Blast and their first single called 'Élan', came out on February 13, 2015.
Mark Taylor spoke to Floor Jansen and Marco Hietala for Record Collector about all things Nightwish.
Finnish person speaking english: understood. Dutch person speaking english: understood. British person speaking gibberish: WTH?
That's actually quite typical. Native speakers will understand each other almost no matter what. Some are so comfortable with the language/dialect, and so detached from how quirky it is, that it becomes difficult to understand for non-native speakers. This applies especially for native English speakers, who rarely know any other language well or at all, so they just have no idea what makes something hard to understand for non-natives.
@@flashpeter625 it indeed has to do with the different dialects that exist in a certain language. And this basically applies to all languages. But in this case, the interviewer has the task to ask his questions in clear English as clearly as possible. You do have to deal with foreigners who do not all understand the language, let alone understand the dialect in that language.
I think a part of it may be that when you speak a language that's not your first, you are a lot more careful with your pronunciation and speed
I understood that man just fine 🤷♀️
The guy also seems kind of short and impatient
Floor is unbelievably beautiful
Marko is one of the endless forms most beautiful...in my opinion
No argument.
Absolutely.
What a class act, truly talented. She blows most mainstream female artists out of the water 👌🤘
I like what Floor said about sitting down with a good set of headphones or speakers, and actually listening to an album in order, to hear the songs in the order the artist meant. That is super important in Metal, as often the groups ARE telling a long story via the songs, or are moving you through a thematic voyage.
@@Dam0clez And not just concept albums I guess - In Michael Jackson's bio, I recall reading something like how he and Quincy Jones were careful when choosing in which order the songs should go on Thriller.
Floor Jansen is the #Empress of Heavy Metal music. There's no one out there like her. I am actually glad that I got to become a Nightwish fan with her as the lead vocalist. Their previous work-Pre-Jansen-is great, but just not as impactful in my opinion. Floor's metal approach and powerful voice is something else!
I am a new fan to the band, and too are very happy I started out as fan with Floor in the band. She is simply epic
Agreed 100%
I'm British and I even missed out some the words he saying. I think the interviewer needs to slow down a bit. But none the less it was a great interview.
He's excited about the interview! ;)
That explains why lol
I'm kinda happy my english teacher teached us "queens english"
why do Fans not much listen to intervieuws from the Band players and singers i can,t understand that . this is great .
'symphonic Metal storytellers' I love that description.
Bravo Floor! When someone steals from you, it's not about the money. That can be replaced.
12:54 cute Floor :) :D

Nice interview but that interviewer, wow, at times he was very hard to understand. What happened to speaking normal, standard English, or at least try to lose the accent a bit? People have accents and that's fine, but as an interviewer you have to be somewhat clear in presenting questions I'd say.
Marco and Floor were way easier to understand and they're not even English.
That's just his accent, there's lots within the English language.
+George Jansen
It seems obvious but it's likely the guy has never even considered that he might be hard for others to understand.
It's partly the fault of his accent (changing th to f etc), but probably more to do with poor verbal skills in general. He mumbles and stutters, he struggles to form complete sentences, he mixes up words like astronomy and astrology, and so on.
I feel that people with strong regional accents should be taught in school to be able to express themselves clearly, if only to increase their own employability. The rest of the world does not have a duty to work to understand every bizarre variant of English.
I don't understand. I understood him just fine 🤷♀️
OMG, Floor laughs and the world looks a better place.
Nice interview, little bit hard to understand the interviewer at times, cause you talk so fast, other than that, good job, thanks man!
The interviewer is not a random person out of Camden talking to the band. This is his profession. Even everybody in the world has a certain accent, when they attend a meeting or conduct an interview or speak formally in a formal setting, they have an obligation to speak clearly and in a general understandable and clean accent of that particular language.
Marco says he's into astronomy, Interviewer asks are all Finnish kids into astrology? wtf? Astronomy is science, astrology is bollocks! totally different.
Very intelligent and clear answer to the leaking of songs, what it does to the band and the loyal fans :) A lack of knowledge and education. Floor you have used an anser that is liek the answer to all kinds of things that go wrong. Impressed by the intelligent answers of her and also Marco :3
I wouldn't have mind Floor stopping a bit on camara to take in everything around her. That also is 'in the moment' and seeing a (newer) member of a band you love feeling good, happy and appreciative and even wauwed, that actually also add up to a great experience in my opinion :3
And is it just me or was the interviewer a little hard to understand sometimes? I understand Floor and Marco completely but I sometimes have a harder time to understand some Brittish accents as a non-native speaker of English. I am Dutch, Like Floor.
4:12 The mandatory conflation of astronomy and astrology by the interviewer :)
flashpeter625
Yes, he’s an idiot.
Nice interview :) I agree with what Marco and Floor said, it's not about the money. I'm pretty sure they know that hearing the leak won't suddenly just stop all fans from buying the album or going to concerts. It's really a matter of disrespect. Leaks happen all the time, so I know that we're all desensitized to it. But just because we've accepted it as "normal" doesn't mean it's right. Nightwish is justified in being angry.
BUT I will say whoever posted that rant on the nightwish facebook page should have taken a second to calm the fuck down before going full CAPS on us lol. Not saying the contents of the rant itself were wrong, but rly? That's incredibly unprofessional ._. I feel that a lot of people who would've otherwise sided with the band in this situation were totally turned away by that.
Some people are so poor that all they have is money..
Floor looks imperious sitting there.
4:09 Did the interviewer really say 'astrology' at the end of that question? My god, scientific illiteracy strikes again...
yep
Those questions about work vs life (around 23:00) while actually giving them a few minutes more of work, aaaargh 😣
Also as a hard-of-hearing Polish person, I agree to all your comments about pronunciation... 🙄
When foreigners are easier to understand than native English speakers.
The brits don't speak proper English, they can be quite hard to understand.
I know I'm very stupid, but what? You do realise that accents changed every 10 miles or so in England
FLOOR, dominating it with subtile voice
Subtle voice.
16:08 Floor being intelligent and down-to-earth as usual
Late reply sorry but I still wanted to respond to it. I was very happy and impressed with that. It certainly shows the intelligent and down-to-earth personality of Floor and it's beautiful to see (could also be because she is Dutch. Quite some Dutch people are pretty down-to-earth. Something I sometimes feel some proud about^^) She is an artist and so are all the other bandmembers and it's very good to stand still, take a moment to understand that. And I fully agree with her too. Heck almost everything that goes 'wrong' in the world is lack of knowledge/educaion. It is so very vital and I really love she explained this all very thoroughly while staying professional and not preachy or somehting. It is just a very good answer/conversation of truth and experience.
Floor is as intelligent as she is beautiful.
5:50
The Interviewer is crap. Is he in a hurry? Are his mates waiting for him down at the pub or what?
Next time ask them what shampoo are they using
It's the genes, look up Sakari Hietala too, lol :)
damn that woman is a beast
I thought that the beast and the beauty were the other way around...
But I get your drift!
@@Aurinkohirvi Marco Hietala is such a cutie :-) Floor is awesome
Marco looks offended by that comment at 1:40.....
Elisa Princess Oh he said JOINING..... I thought he said ENJOYING.... maybe marco thought that too
gigante essa floor jansen ta louco hahahaha
4:11 interviewer confuses astrology and astronomy, wth :D
Don't let that girl burn out on the tour!
I mean the next one. Hopefully she didn't in the previous.
I hope all Englishmen would speak like Prince Charles, so we would understand them.
The interviewer needs to slow down!
So funny out this played out, with Dawkins et al…..
Classic ‘astrology’ for ‘astronomy’ schoolboy error on the part of the interviewer. Sheesh!
was that even an English speaking interviewer? LMAO
Buh da da ba tt tt tt astrology.
lofi hip hop
she's pretty, but too manly, like a transvestite Tarja was the best
🇳🇱
oh this is bad.
what a shitty comment dude...
@@Sabouma28 SORRY, JUST A FACT
@@Sabouma28 Nope, sorry, look at her, scary beast. Great singer, but fuck, could be a man! Tarja was a true beauty, original, and a goddess, not a trans looking thing
