No matter the singer... Emppu still uses HIS guitar
I think the day Emppu changes guitars is the day the world ends😂
🤣🤣🤣🤘
This comment made me laugh. So true!
I've seen evidence of Emppu using an EV3. On Reverb! An English guy is selling one AND one of the pictures is of him playing it. Couple of grand (ish)
The EV-1
You definitely need to do Dead Boy's Poem. For years it was Tuomas' favourite song they wrote alongside Ghost Love Score and now Greatest Show on Earth
For me, DBP is one of their most beautiful songs and therefore I can listen to it / watch it again and again. I am sure, Tank will love it as well.
dont worry ,there are enough wendays to come to get there eventually lol
Dead Boy's Poem on Decades is fantastic
Oh yes! Dead boys poem is a must!
Please also as doublefeature!!
I'm 60 years old and found Nightwish 2 months ago by accident watching other reaction videos. I'm exactly like you. They move me to my core and I don't know why. Floor is epic. Tarja is phenomenal. The band is amazing. But, I think it's Tuomas Holopainen's (he deserves full name credit) arrangements and composition that digs into our souls.
I think the reason people love Nightwish so much and get these INTENSE emoticon while listening the band is because it awakens something inside of us that we don't know or can't tap into other times. Tuomas has said many times his biggest inspiration for writing his music is his own wondeful childhood. And I think he has learned somehow to channel our inner child emotions, thats within us all, and thats why we feel so intensly when listening Nightwish. He brings our own little child on us to the surface and we feel intently, as children always do. ❤ Man I love Nightwish, Proud to be a Finn for sure!
i miss jukka. not so much in the music. kai is a technical master and hes more than enough to fill jukkas shoes. but i miss seeing him play. hes so animated. he plays with his entire body
Completely agree. Similar to Floor's ability to convey emotional energy also.
Same here!!
Totally agree! He IS music...
Kai has joked that he is trying to be a bit more flashy like Jukka, but he has to be careful as he has almost hit Floor with a stick.
Jukka is the original Duracell Bunny.
The solo piano bit right before the end of the song gives me chills. Every. Single. Time. Tuomasgasm?
I can relate to the inability to listen to Nightwish at times, because it hits me similarly. I have to be in the right frame of mind and in the right environment to listen to Nightwish without it completely wrecking me emotionally. And even then, it's probably a good 10-20% chance it will wreck me anyway, depending on the song.
Nemo was the first song I heard at the time it was released. I got into the band in 2003-2004, and found everything I could get my hands on as a poor college student. When Once came out, I immediately picked it up. This was the first song that I had to play on repeat from the album, and can sing every line by heart. The rest of the album is absolutely fantastic, and I'm not sure I can actually label any song from it as my favorite, but this one has an extra nostalgic pull that the rest of the album doesn't have quite as strong because of that early connection I made with it.
Thanks for sharing, man! Glad I’m not the only one that feels like this! Hahahaha.
@@TankTheTech Oh no! You are definitely not the only one, definitely not.
Tank, I can double your age and add 8 more, it still hits me.
My observation, by the much earlier onset of way more frequent head banging, then I deduce which version you liked best, it would be my personal choice too.
i like Toumas smile at 16:33; he's like: yep i think we found the one singer whocan sing all of the songs.
This is how I describe Nightwish to the uninitiated. “Heavy instrumental that will hammer you flat, with a singer(any of the 3) whose sweet vocals cut right through to your heart and make you cry”. Nemo is a classic example of this.
I feel you 100% Tank. I have teared up or gotten emotional more times with this band way more consistently than any band. The epicness, the folk, the compositions, the amazing vocals. It just all works perfectly to create the goosebumps and emotions. I never thought my holy trinity of bands would never change but I guess it's now a Rushmore because Nightwish has to be there with the best of the best for my ear. And I have yet to see them live, I was only introduced in late 2019. Los Angeles next year simply cannot come soon enough!
I stumbled onto Tarja's last performance ( Phantom of the Opera ) maybe in 2007. That was my beginning of the Nightwish rabbit hole. I loved Tarja, but also love Floor! I still want to see them live some day.
Its every time you hear the tracks though not just once. Amazing
@@deed5811 that's the same concert as this song, the last song on that concert was I Wish I Had an Angel, final Tarja's performance
@@dac2007 I Wish I Had an Angel was the first song I ever heard. I bought the album, & was hooked on them.
Not only that but when I read the lyrics I got emotional as well because of the meaning of the song,kind of resonated with me.
The inexplicable emotional reaction...
I feel that. I don’t understand it but some songs seem like they reach deep inside my soul, grab the deepest emotion that wants to stay hidden, but the song will drag my feelings, kicking & screaming, to the surface until they overflow & I’m just a passenger along for the viscerally emotional ride.
Definitely one of my top few bands of all time.
I’m excited for you to really get into the newest album.
Unfortunately there’s very little in the way of live performances due to the rona.
Great album.
If you want a lengthy emotional ride, sit back and listen to the second half of the album.
I cry every time. The music doesn’t need words.
Exactly same thoughts with me too, Tuomas’ music moves the roots of my heart (finnish word, has no good translation to english) and makes my soul vibrate. This is only way to describe the feelings. And when adding Floors style of singing the emotions with lyrics...
When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
- banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
- Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
- „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

Oh I know it ...cant listen to some of them around my daughter because of that lol
I get it too! Nightwish can move me emotionally in a deeper level than any other band I can think of,and I'm not even a metal fan in general, but they... are something else.
I am 63 years old, and have listened to hard rock/heavy metal for 55 years, and no other group has ever touched my emotions like Nightwish. Tank, I do agree with you on the sound quality being better than the Wacken version...except for Floor's vocals. Maybe it's just her abilities, but damn she could sing "Twinkle, Twinkle little Star" and bring the audience to tears!
I fully intend to grab some Nightwish CD's to play their music in my SUV....I want to listen to them over and over again!
many of the older Nightwish songs, like this one, i prefer Tarja's voice. In general i like Floor the best, but these classic NW songs require the original voice imo. Also i prefer Jukka as drummer in NW.
Kai is the better drummer on a technical level, no doubt, but Jukka just fits the band better i think. Still Kai does a great job! and he is a great replacement, probably the best possible.
Yepp I feel exactly the same 😉
Nightwish often breaks strong men to tears...it means you are alive!!
glad to watch you on your Nightwish journey
Nemo Planet Rock's acoustic is terrific.
Yes, Floor's acoustic singing for Nemo is incredible.
ua-cam.com/video/FC7HYfc5y0A/v-deo.html
Floor with her varied vocal instrument, Troy fingerpicking and strumming on an acoustic guitar (AND doing the backup vocals)... can't get any better than that. A wonderful performance !! 🤘🔥🤘
I'm not crying either..... Floor just does that, something of what she gives of herself into the songs or her delivery of them just blows me away and she plays my heart strings like a harp. Tissue please....
The thoroughly human and emotional sound of the woodwinds does help too.
Great addition to the song.
She puts so much character and emotion into her singing. She also changes the color/timbre of her singing to really draw out the emotions of lyrics.
Im a full grown man and yet I still cry whenever my Queen Floor sings.
Both Tuomas and Floor have said that they are "high sensitives". They are in fact empaths, and that is not an easy existence for anyone so cursed and blessed. You get the best and the worst of everything unless you develop a strong enough filter. Floor is a world-class, high function, full duplex empath. THAT's how she sings her self, her heart and soul right into ours, and she does it whether it's a live performance or not. This is her super power. The audience is hers every time she performs. If she does not make you cry, if she does not give you chills and goosebumps, then you have no soul.
Been a Metalhead my whole life and just recently got into Nightwish. I've pretty much listened to their entire discography and although Tarja is talented in her own right, Floor just dropkicks me every time. I cant get enough of her...
This song is nothing less than epic! Both singers are legendary - and now let´s celebrate all this HAIR!!!!!!! :-))))))
Heck of a reaction Tank. Personally I prefer Tarja's operatic vocals to Floor's belts when the key shifts towards the end. It fits the tone of the song better IMHO. Speaking of which, if you want to hear Floor flex her operatic chops, react to Shoemaker from their latest album. Make sure to research Eugene Shoemaker beforehand. It really enhances the song when you have context to the lyrics.
Yeah, I hope he will eventually get to the new album.
@@zvolencan1 He should listen to After Forever or Revamp. Floor used to be way better in those bands.
Yup Ghost love score has always been my favorite since I got that album many moons ago and Floors Rendition I have to admit I like better. With that said, Nemo was the first song by Nightwish I heard on a metal compilation album. I have heard it so many bloody times and I will say without a doubt that it doesn't get any better than with Tarja. A great tune for sure.
@@zvolencan1 I don't think he will, at least until they can get to touring again and some live videos get put out, at present all we've got for the current album is the MV for Noise and lyric videos for the rest, no gear for Tank to go through.
If you want to hear Floor's operatic vocals, listen to the first 2 albums of After Forever. Her vocal ability was used to its maximized potential on her original band. Her vocals on Nightwish is severely underutilized.
This song was THE song when I first got into Nightwish. I was already familiar with them because I'd seen the music video for Over The Hills And Far Away and fell in love with Emppu that second (I was 10 years old and totally obsessed). But when Nemo came out I sat in my friend's room and we listened to it FOR HOURS. No matter how many times I've heard it or seen in it live, it still gives me all the feels. No joke, this band is larger than life.
I met Nemo in 2004 with Tarja, so I prefer her! 🤷🏽♀️
I've seen this performance dozens of times and even this reaction before and JUST NOW did I realize Tarja is wearing the same outfit she wore in Music Video
Damn ... I can absolutely understand, why Yukka needed the break and finally retired ... but still today, when I see videos of him going wild on the drums ... my drummer heart just pumps a little harder, man. LOVE IT!!!
I know exactly how you feel about the emotions. I am 51 and only started listening to Nightwish during this pandemic and I cry like a big baby on so many of their songs. Totally inexplicable.
Slaying the dreamer- double reaction
This is as emotional as "f" because Floor added that extra emotional as "F" factor!!! Great review Tank. While I do appreciate Tarja's rendition, Floor has my heart. :)
I'm with you there, Tarja is awesome but Floor is just Next Level. There's something about her performances that's just beyond Fantastic. This band has made me cry, taken my breath away and left me speechless more than any other band I've Ever heard!
Yup. I commented the same. Floor added an extra extended high note where tarja doesnt.... make it more emotional, and that is the exact time he had the emotional outburst.
I agree with you all, and of course NO disrespect to Tarja who is awesome as well, but even watching the 2 videos back to back, I think that Floor is investing a lot more emotion into her singing and it comes out and resonates with all who hear her sing!!!
Yes, to me Tarja has a great voice, but lacking emotion, sounds too mechanical to my ears
Personally voting for Last Ride of the Day next ! ;)
Last Ride will be the last reaction of Nightwish Wednesday. Fitting, right? Haha
@@TankTheTech Now that will add to the emotions, oh man...
Can’t wait for this
@@TankTheTech So with around 140 songs in their back catalogue we're looking at Last Ride in about 2.5 - 3 years? 😉
Thank you my third favourite nightwish song is last ride of the day you won't be disappointed tank.you will be headbanging like a madman to it.. just awesome thanks 🇬🇧🏴🤘🤘🇬🇧🇬🇧🤘👍
That's among the first Nightwish songs I ever heard and one of the most definitively "Tarja" songs. It's even been on MTV and Viva when they were still airing actual music and not rubbish reality tv like they do now. That's even been so long with me, I sang this and "Two for Tragedy" as lullabies to the girl I was babysitting as a teen (yes, I know, the second might be a bit morbid, but the melody is pretty tranquil and calm and since I'm no native speaker and neither was or is the girl, I figured that was just about okay). And to our dog when he was just a little puppy that didn't want to fall asleep in his crate (yeah, I know I'm a bit nuts, thanks again ;))
(without going into "who's better", one thing i notice is Floor's stage presence & crowd engagement just seems *substantially* higher)
Yea. Vocal abilities will mostly be personal preference... but Floors charisma is off the damn charts, she owns the stage.
Well she is a bit taller.. . Jk jk jk;)
That depends on what you are watching. The End of Era recording is not typical for Tarja. She was very sick during it so she's less energetic, wasn't breathing as well, and wasn't moving around as much. Towards the middle, she ramps her energy down even further to recover for the end of the show.
A second thing is Marco was the band's frontman after he joined even though he wasn't the lead singer. It's a bit weird, but notice how Marco often introduces songs during this period even when he doesn't sing in them. He also gets the crowd hyped at certain points when you think Tarja would doing it. She did it very well before Marco joined. It was the band's decision, not Tarja's, but she went along with it. Still, the End of Era recording was low energy for her even with Marco as the frontman. If you are looking at this era, compare it to Floor who is undeniably the frontwoman.
That said, it's best to check Tarja out before Marco joined or after she left Nightwish. You'll notice the difference in crowd interactions, how Tarja moves on stage, and pretty much everything. She's a great frontwoman.
Below is the full Act 1 concert from 2012. It is a great place to start because of the quality of the recording. She sings 17 songs the first day and ten more the second. The 17th song on the first day is "Over the Hills and Far Away" (a Nightwish one), which is also the next to last song on the equally long End of Era recording. This makes it a pretty fair comparison. The Act 1 performance is pretty much typical behavior for her. Watch the End of Era version after and you'll see how much her being sick dragged her down. She has the crowd sing part of Nemo earlier in the show, too.

Fun fact: Nemo was the first Nightwish song i heard when i was a kid. I was on the road with my father going to see some family and he bought me this "radio hits compilation" album that we then listened on the way which had this song.. loved the band ever since.
Basically what Marko said was "Hey! There's the guy who wrote the entire song, Mr Tuomas Holopainen" while stumbling on some of the words (Edit: He probably was trying to say "Kirjoitti koko biisin"). And yes NW is definitely top 2.. right after that band that has Ruslan Alanen on lead vocals.
Hahahahahaha. Kiitos!
I agree with the "Hey! There's the guy who wrote" but then, during the next two words, he does some funny stuff with his voice. I have heard that part many times and I even tried to slow the video down but still I have no idea what he was saying. But he definitely ends with "the entire song, Mr Tuomas Holopainen".
So my best translation would be:
"Hey! There's the guy who wrote XXXXXX XXXXXX, the entire song, Mr Tuomas Holopainen!"
The second unrecognizable word sounds like "pyssyn" (= a gun) or "syssyyn" (=in one go/without stopping at all), but those don't make much sense either.
@@TankTheTech Paiste , auringon paiste = sun is shining ... there will be Raskasta Joulua Concert on 19th December , at least they are selling tickets to live streaming it and they do want about 20€ for that (pay per view ?) www.raskastajoulua.com/. Marko Hietala should be there ,this year its a bit limited on foreign guests .
I found something to you to maybe react (or just enjoy), its aimed for kids , but the people on stage in the dino costumes are not really playing ... big spoiler :-)

Ok, this a month old reaction already but I wanted to chip in a bit.

Also the way Paiste is pronounced in English is very close to Finnish word paisti which is roast in English as inOk, this a month old reaction already but I wanted to chip in a bit.

A Tarja song with a great rendition from her longtime friend Floor. And the great composition from Herra Tuomas Holopainen.
I'm finnish and grew up with metal, and rock, and Nightwish. My parents raised me and my siblings listening to metal. Nightwish and Tarja hold a special space in my heart even though I wasn't even born when Tarja was still in the group. Everytime I listen to nightwish tears come to my eyes thinking about the nostalgia that comes with them. You probably know the song "Phantom of the opera" which was performed the last time with the original members of nightwish on October 21st 2005, also the last day with Tarja in thr group. Well after 18 years Tarja and Marko reunited to perform "Phantom of The Opera" just two days ago on 08/07/2023 in Switzerland, and oh boy was I bawling my eyes out. Just like you mentioned in the video that Nightwish has had member changes that were not dissapointing. I agree with that but the original members just hold a special place in my heart. I was so happy seeing the two on stage together again. ❤
not 1 compliment for floor , ashame
DUDE, I know right! Coming by a Nightwish song on your playlist and you're like... No, I am not emotionally prepared to face this song right now, and gotta skip? Or brace yourself and be like, ok, I guess we're doing this, ready for the waterworks in case the tears decide to come. Because without a fail, listening to most Nightwish songs transports me to a very different mental space. A lot of emotions and inspiration just pour out. I've been sitting in public transit and have to hold back tears suddenly to not bawl out in public because I'm just so moved, in one way or another. It's not like "listening to music", it's "listening to Nightwish", a whole ass mood.
Same dude I cry every time in nightwish songs no reason
I love what Troy adds to this song. The inclusion of folk instruments really take this song to a whole new level, not to mention Floor’s soaring high notes.
Personally i like the "original" better and with Tarja. Love Floor though and have nothing against Troy, they both add alot to Nightwish but with this particular song i like it better the way it was 😊 I know that people don't always agree on everything but thats fine 😀😁👍
You are not alone regarding the emotional connection and how much Nightwish's music Tuomas's music affects me. I also believe Nightwish is one of my favorite groups if not my favorite musical group. Each sound always affects me emotionally and I alway feel happy afterwards although I always want to stops do replay to listen again.
I like to see that I am not the only one who always gets excited with each nightwish song .. I am a hard metal head like you, but when it comes to feeling the music, nothing similar happens to me with any other band .. When I need peace and clean my soul nightwish is always the best option...
I understand you, in my life Nightwish imposed itself as my favorite band without even realizing it ... Over the years, and thousands of bands listened to, of all genres ... I'm not afraid to say that Nightwish is in another totally different league .. it's true that when I want something more technical I start listening to other types of bands .. but I don't have all those moods and that magic that nightwish gives me ... that crazy balance full of contrasts. .. Nightwish is like sitting down to read a book, you need to prepare, relax and let yourself go, it is not just something to listen to and pass the time ... it is like watching a movie, and it is fun and it is even unreal that this is live even better ... that puts them in another league.
Jukka is KILLING IT on those drums man! looks like he is having alot of fun too!
Now he needs to do Nemo by Tim Akkerman, from Beste Zangers 2019. He sang it for Floor :)
that was a nice cover
Punk rock version by Tim Akkerman
Dan Vasc also covered Nemo (Y)
He really does not need to hear that
Link???😁
Sleeping Sun next? 😍 don't know if Floor have done a version but Tarjas from End of an Era is magical
Floor’s performances are all beautiful
@yerko cornejo Tarja didn't write them. Sad but true.
This is the song that got me into Nightwish, still listened to it with the same fondness that I had that first time...
Flooooooooor! I agree completely, both versions are very good, and Thomas’s composition is incredible. But something about the combination of his music with Floor’s vocal, and the way they stack up such an emotional wallop, is simply unmatched. Fucking love this band
Nemo is an emotional song for me. It made me interested about Nightwish and it was the first song that I saved to my computer from Nightwish. It was also the last song I heard live in their second last concert ever with Tarja (teenage me got grounded for staying at the concert area very late. I was waiting specifically to hear this song, although I had promised my mom to come back home earlier because I was still young and the concert area was full of drunken adults.. but it was worth it).
At last you've heard Nemo. My favorite nightwish song of all. You need to hear wish I had an angel.
Nightwish - Sleeping Sun, is one that gets to me every time I hear it.
As always, great reaction Tank.
I listened to Nightwish briefly in my youth with Tarja as the singer, and couldn't wrap my head around her vocals. You said this one doesn't take a while to like, you're not wrong. This was the only song I thought I liked by Nightwish until I re-discovered the band a couple years ago with Floor. First time I listened to this performance, I also cried. No shame, sir.
Same here!!! I loved the song when Tarja performed it in End of an Era, but re-discovering the song in this whole New level of emotion... just left of me nothing but a wreck... I honestly think that Floor has just mastered (hope I'm writing it well) this song.
I fucking love this reaction. I remember when I heard this song for the first time, I was watching the movie called THE CAVE and at the end of the movie when the credits roll this song played. I was then introduced to Nightwish for the first time in my life and what a rabbit hole I fell into lol. I am not surprised you got so emotional with this song Tank at all. I still after all these years tear up with this song some times especially near the end. Perhaps it has to do with what this song is about? the word NEMO is a Latin word which means no one, or nobody, and its about a time in Tuomas Life when he felt lost and/or without direction hence the phrase "Nemo my name forevermore". What ever it is, this song is filled with intense emotion and its fantastic. Your reaction to this song ... is by far my favorite thus far. :)
That's how my husband and I discovered Nightwish as well, except we watched Alone in the Dark and I Wish I Had An Angel was the credits song. It was such a terrible movie but the wonderful surprise of discovering this band means that I can't relegate it to the "time I regret wasting" pile.
Yep, I've been there and felt as a lost nobody, my much younger wife died suddenly and wholly unexpectedly, then a few ,months later my also much loved black cat too and I live in complete isolation, nobody at all for over 1km in every direction. "Cats, dogs, canary birds, pet Martians. . . . . . . . . . " (He'll get there!!)
This and "that" are hard to do. But, thank you Tank for doing both versions here.
@@572Btriode My heart goes out to you. I truly do understand. My uncle passed from Lymphona last month. I was very close to him. He was my Dad's little brother. My Dad is 90 & I'm so worried about how he'll cope. My little cat, my 'touchstone', Midget, died of Lymphoma (2ndry to Feline HIV) 2 mths ago. I'm NOT coping. She was my last pet & I'm too disabled now to rear another and it's hurting.
I hope you have other pets. They can be way better than people.
I wish you all the best. I hope you find peace & happiness. ❤
@@pamf.3290 Thank you, these things happen, it's tough. So Nemo and "the other one" that Tank has yet to get to rather strike home and the "incident" here was back in 2014/5 too. I'm sorry about your little cat, I do know exactly how very attached you can get to them. Just keep pushing forwards, most of the music is uplifting and some makes you face your demons.
Very best wishes from me.
@@572Btriode Thank you. You're very kind. Yes, I do find mostly joy, laughter & happily connection on utube. Merry Christmas from a Summery Oz. 🇭🇲
It made you tear up. Nothing else to say. Walking In The Air live in Tampere 2000. Emppu with a white guitar. Tuomas looks sooo young and pre Marco. Remake of a children's cartoon song. It's very cool.
same! they get me up in my feeling too. i literally cannot listen to them as often as i normally would cuz they kind of exhaust me... in the best way
For Tarja's songs I never go to End of an Era concert, if I want to hear her singing (and usually I do) because it's not a good concert for her vocals. But it's good concert to go for Nightwish for other reasons. For Nemo live I would have gone 2005 Download Festival video.
floor's high belts make it for me... every time... tears.. astounding power, t his woman :)
I agree about the emotion. Im nearly 50 and they make me cry as well, I don't know why. Its not the words, its something about a combination of Floors voice and Tuomas's music that just hits you.
I think this is primal emotion that isnt about self indulgent reflection like a lot of music is these days, its escapism, its actual tears of joy.
This song was my introduction to Nightwish and for a long time, I was a Tarja holdout for this song in particular. There's just something about the studio version of this song with her that just really stuck with me. I didn't care for the first couple Floor performances of Nemo which was odd, because I stopped following the band going into Imaginarium and then rediscovered them when Ghost Love Score from Wacken went viral, and immediately fell in love with Floor's voice from then on- except THIS song.
Then I heard Floor's version of this in the Buenos Aires show. It changed my mind completely, and now I love both versions of this song about as equally. Maybe not for a reaction since you already listened to Wacken, but if you're curious I'd say give that one a listen. Troy is featured and it's WICKED.
Yah, they're all fantastic. In all eras. Thanks for not comparing them, each era is different and wonderful in it's own way. Really hoping you'll go all the way back to From Wishes to Eternity, pre-Marco. It's an amazing performance... Walking in the Air, She is My Sin, The Pharaoh Sails to Orion, Swanheart, take your pick!
“Comparison is the thief of joy" - Theodore Roosevelt
I too, appreciate Nightwish in all their incarnations.
Tank…right there with you…to be honest, I had no idea who they were and I’m in the business here in Los Angeles….worked Hollywood Bowl, Greek Theater, Microsoft theater(Nokia), Staples, Paladium, ..I’m embarrassed…I love…I love this F%@#$ band…they give me the feels…keep rock’in 🤘🏻
Saw Nightwish in Oulu in the bar 45 way back when (90s like), with Tarja, loved them. Saw Kai Hahto in the same venue with Rotten Sound, loved him. Things change, such is life, still love em, love Jukka too, wish you the very best. Also to Marco who renounced from Nightwish. He is a true metal god, both bass and singing, wish you to utmost best, be well!!!
When watching these End of an Era performances I can't stop looking at Tuomas and notice some sadness on his face and, knowing about what happens after the concert, it makes sense...
What happend after this?😇
@@devious4614 this was their last show with Tarja. They gave her "the letter" after this show. nightwish.fandom.com/wiki/Open_Letter_to_Tarja_Turunen
I was just about to comment this. There is a huge difference in the band vibe between these two shows. In Wacken everyone is just having fun, an Tuomas is just plain smiling all the time. End of an era is, well, and end of an era. Everyone knows this is the last show with Tarja.
@@devious4614 It was last show with Tarja. So, literally, and end of an era.
Yes, I also feel he can't stand to look at Tarja and I will always wonder how much of the 'off' atmosphere was noticed by Tarja at the time. Seems pretty obvious now looking back at these videos, doesn't it?
Dude i get it lol. I went from a straight up hardcore metal fan to basically listening to Nightwish pretty much all the time. Emotions bro
🤘🤘🤘
they genuinely enjoy each other .... and the music reflects that .. that is what it is for me .......
this band gets me every time. band love to play and it shows. there are bands, good bands, great bands and then there is NightWish. it just is something else.
Some facts: 1))) On the album Century Child (prior to Once - the one in which Nemo is), Tarja said she needed to relearn how to sing in Nightwish and I believe that's because of key changes and the sweetness that Tuomas was requiring for those songs. You can check how radio friendly the studio album version sounds due to how sweet and instrospective Tarja's voice is actually sounding, definetely "easier" to listen to. She was never able to reproduce that voice live though, she always came up with full power and I always found Nemo a little off live just because of that (her pronunciation is also a little distractive here). 2))) End of an Era was recorded at least twice. On this one you can notice that all the slow motion and close ups are from a different version. Tarja's hair, movements and positions on stage are completetly different. I never knew how they could manage to do that and it's almost unnoticeable if you watch it only once.
Nemo’s MV was on TV when I was 5. This is what led me to be a metal head later, bc it impressed little me so much.
I still prefer Tarja’s version (even though I don’t like how she often sings off beat), but only because of nostalgia. I definitely have songs that I enjoy more than Nemo, but it holds a special place in my heart.
I know you say that you like all the different eras of Nightwish but you seem to really get emotional with Floor singing. She is what brought me back to Nightwish. And I thank her everyday for it.
My personal favorite Nightwish song, and the first I ever heard almost 15 years ago
You should watch the From Wishes to Eternity concert where Sami Vänskä is the bassist
I wish I had an angel is another banger you will love!
I have been a fan of nightwish for almost 20 years, and no matter what song, when I hear Floor sing any of the older songs, her ability to connect and bring a deeper emotion to the words never ceases to bring out an emotional reaction. You're not the only one Tank.
I don’t know why but, I always ALWAYS cry with this song. I meet this band since I was kid because my father listen all them and I just feel so much emotion when i listen it
So... I feel you bro
A beautiful song, and my introduction to Nightwish so long ago. Both Tarja and Floor bring out so much emotion from this song
the next double reaction should be Slaying the Dreamer (End of an Era and Live in Buenos Aires)
it's breathtaking
lol what you said after the song is exactly how i feel about nightwish and im 59. i discovered them about 8 months ago and by far their by favorite band of all time and not even close. they make me feel things i never felt before . great reaction brother
Nemo is the song which I like with Tarja the most and I can't tell why. I think it's because it brings memories from back in the days when the song came out!
Floor nails this song, too of course!
I remember my first Nightwish concert when Anette sang it, and she did it great, too.
Couldn't agree with you more mate. Only came across Nightwish in April this year and now I would be hard pressed to find a band I love more. No band has ever elicited this kind of emotion from me. Of course Floor is amazing, but all of them are really.
I love what you do! Look forward to following you through the journey! Thanks mate!
That last orchestral part of "Nemo" gets me. Every. Single. Time. It's just so incredibly beautiful.
I think that’s really what got me too.
I wish I can find an extended of just that part
Its the High Pitch Voice of Floor ( and also sometimes the Folk Flair) with this reactions ( to me..) I hear Nightwish since 98 and never good so much goosebumbs before Floor..
Man I wish I could go back to that time and place.... I have been there in Wacken at this performance and it was truly amazing! Same year Rammstein had played and I thought nothing could reach that performance and then Nightwish pulled that show out their sleeves just one or two days later.. I wish I could go back and relive that festival one more time...
Floor had done different versions of this song. Acoustic version with Troy at Planet Rock amazing.
What do we want: Nightwish - Walking in the air
When do we want it: Next Wednesday.....
.....or as soon as possible :D
I'm still probably the only one asking, but I really think it would make for good reaction. Not only it's really good version of the song but it also have different gears and production since it's quite old. Also you will see Sami Vänskä (bass player before Marko joined) plus they all look so young.
Walking In The Air, should be left for Christmas... just saying 😘
I heard Nemo when it came out. . . only knew a few people that liked Nightwish, but a few years later in a quaint Mexican village, I heard Nemo blasting out of a car's cd player. . . my jaw dropped and i could never get it back in place. . .
Tank my brother! First, thank you for these reactions. Your perspective is awesome and I’m with you 100%. Second, as a metal head from the 80’s, and a drummer for 30+ years, I have already made the decision that Nightwish is my all-time favorite band. Composition, musicality, technical perfection, vocals out of this world, the joy between band mates, and all the emotion....they are by far the best in the world. Third, IMO, what was the difference between the two reactions and brought the tears? ....Floor. The Valkyrie Siren does that to us all.
For me, it’s more the music and Floor is an added bonus, but there was definitely something that she brought in the Wacken version that got me.
Floor is a self-professed empath and has the ability to fill every last note with emotions like no other i have heard. That's what gets to me. She could probably sing the phonebook and make us all tear up.
Thank you for your honest reactions. Always looking forwards to your new reactions.
Me too dude.... me too.
The new Nightwish has something truly special, the band seems re-energized since Floors arrival and somehow able to expand beyond some former limit.
Always exceptional but now even more so.
- 10th Man Down - Live In Buenos Aires 2018 - Decades Tour
- Slaying The Dreamer (DVD End Of An Era)
- Planet Hell (DVD End Of An Era)
This band hits you with so many emotions.
And I hate Nightwish for it,
When I hear other music I think 'it's ok, it's good but it aint giving me the feelings Nightwish does"
Watching your reactions to Nightwish makes me smile all the time, because I recognize the the emtions.
My wife knows when I am watching Nightwish videos when she looks at my face.
I am with you there, can't say why this music goes so deep in me, every song, just every song, everytime I wish it was wednesday at least 2 times a week, but have to go with this one day. Thanks again, this was so great and fun to watch. I am once again going for Creek Mary's Blood from the same concert with Tarja. Not much pyros in that song, but something different for you to see from Nightwish.
Your emotional state and reaction is very well understood, Tank. I heard/watched/enjoyed this Wacken show more than 100 times and it still brings tears to my eyes (as any other Nightwish show) ☺️
Nightwish fan from 2000 - I totally fell in love with Wishmaster, Crownless, Stargazers and She is My Sin, back then 💖
I have been getting that emotional reaction for the last 15-16 years with nightwish.
Ohh this was one of my first Nightwish songs I heard, I love it. I cannot watch the premiere but I'll check this out later. Another I love to pieces is Sleeping Sun! I like how Floor sings it but that's forever a Tarja song for me.
Me too. Sleeping sun is all Tarja.
Yep. Floor sings it beautifully as well, but Sleeping Sun belongs to Tarja. The darkness in her voice lends itself so well to the emotions of the song.
I respectively disagree on both songs, but to each their own.🤟
@@Hexley_Vexley well that's okay, some songs just hit you differently with different singers. Cheers!
Floor slew Sleeping Sun at Tampere. Great vocal abilities.
Yes! This is THE Tarja song for me. I love everything about Floor, but for some reason Nemo works best with Tarja.
Was for me too. Up to Buenos Aires happened. Troy on ebow and Floor going all "Floor" at the end.
*Me too. For me, it's the same with "Dark Chest Of Wonders", maybe not so strong as with "Nemo"....and that's also with "Amaranth", since I still prefer the studio-version.*
It's just that, as a classically trained singer, and someone who speaks English well, Tarjas pronunciation of English words is appalling and distracting.
It sounds like she learned the lyrics phonetically, and takes away any of the connection to them.
I think the reason people love Floor, is because she tells a story and connects . She becomes a conduit between Tuomas and the audience to tell the story. Tarjas is more of a megaphone throwing words.
This is coming from a long long long time fan, who tired of Tarja before end of an era.
Just an opinion though
Every time I listen the studio version or the end of an era video I think, jeah it fit her perfectly...then I listen Floor and sorry, but I stay with her this time too, much more emotions, at least for me.
And I find the Wacken sound better too, a little more heavy at my ears.
🤔 Hmmm Floor al the way!
The statement @ 19:50 man, that's the shit, that's me! They actually *are* my absolute fave. The emotion their music evokes is unmatched!!
Same emotion here!!! Im a long time Nightwish fan.... I saw them perform with Tarja in 04-05ish in Minneapolis and I drove to Iowa to see them with Floor and SABATON opening in 2015, it was incredible and insane!!!!!!!
I skipped a few years after Tarja and came back to them in 2013 when floor joined, and in all fairness I was engulfed in some pretty incredible Finnish bands from 2005-2013 and there was no lack of great bands to listen to during that time so nightwish went by the wayside for a bit....
I have since grown an affection for Annette and appreciate that segment of the bands history... my love for them has increased 10 fold over the years, especially recently... knowing all the pain and suffering we all watched them go through, to continue on their journey, to bring us their gift of sound, has made me so proud to see the success they are receiving today!!!!!! They deserve to be embraced and appreciated and literally worshipped (in a healthy way!) for the genius they truly are!!!
I always liked Nemo. Unusually it is one of the rare songs where I have a preference on singer where the preference is Tarja. I have no idea why, it just seems to suit her voice. Both of them do it well though.
I've got a theory about emotions from these guys. "caught the right moment" and it's about waken performance. Most of the songs from that gig filmed smart and the band is on the peak of everything (Imho. Floor is trying very hard and guys are just happy after a while of not so good shows and we just see and feel it through the screen) this concert is giant pearl for me, pure gold. But in End of an Era, there some songs that just hits me straight in my heart everytime: the Kinslayer (highly recommend) , the Phantom of the opera, Slaying the dreamer and High Hopes. Same thing - caught the right moment for them. Great reaction btw as always, woohoo from St. Petersburg, Russia.
Yes Tank, same here. None other band than Nightwish has been able to give me such an emotional rollercoaster feelings. All of a sudden, without any particular reason at all, I feel like been hit by an invisible sledgehammer right into the chest and tears are rising into my eyes. But oh boy, what a feeling to have. That is the feeling to be alive.
So Nemo is the song that introduced me to Nightwish. I live in Australia and this incredible song was on the Soundtrack for Resident Evil Apocalypse, and like yourself the song instantly captivated me and I was drawn into the band. I just wanted to say thank you for reacting to this song, I'd be interested in hearing your opinion of the acoustic version Floor and Troy did.
This band won me over one song at a time as well. Great reaction as always 😎
Strangely there i was 20 thousand leagues under the sea aboard the Nautilus & the captain told me this is his favourite Nightwish song :)
*Yep, I also connect always the song to this Sci-Fi-story of Jules Verne....*
@@NicholasCorvin Thx for the reply Nicholas. I wasn't sure if anyone would get it :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 *Maybe it's because I knew the Sci-Fi-story before I learned Latin at school, so my mind always takes me in the depth of the seven seas, if I hear or read the word "Nemo"....*
Have read that book half a dozen times since my youth, but it took me into my early twenties before I realized that the "20,000 leagues" was the distance they traveled and nothing to do, at any time, with their depth. 🤷🏼♂️😂
Just over 69,000 miles! 😳
@@sean_b_drummer Thx for clearing that up. I've always wondered about that cos even the Mariana Trench isn't that deep :)
Thanks Tank for the Nightwish reactions especially! I re-discovered the band with your reaction videos and I am perplexed by how their music evokes emotions I have not experienced listening to other bands. I certainly think part of the explanation must be their awesome live shows and I do plan on going to see Nightwish as soon as it's possible.
I can confirm, this is the first official Nightwish song I ever heard (the music video played through Yahoo Music lol), and literally changed the way I listen to music; right song at the right time in my life. However the first song I heard Nightwish singing was their cover of "Walking n the Air." The sound blew me away, and I had to find out more about the band. I highly suggest you give that one a listen for Christmas.
