No, you are not the only one, who is listening and watching in 2024,... It's to beautiful,... Especially to hear the voice of the lead-lady-singer Madam "Floor Jansen." Her voice is very great. ❤❤❤
67 years old and I just found this group a few months ago. In the words of a younger generation...OMG. Folks...you're never too old to love Rock n Roll
here on America, they dint get the attention they deserve, I am 64 and still think this is still an incredibly rockin band, fantastic voices, creative and talented music, for any year past and today, sensational, thank you for your creativity❤❤
Hi Curtin, you’re right…for any year. In the sixties fan of Stones, Beatles, The Who and the Kinks. Five years ago I discovered Floor in a Dutch program (The Best Singers, is on UA-cam). Since that moment I am a huge Floorfan and discovered Nightwish ( and her former bands After Forever and ReVamp). Last year I visit three NW concerts and three Floor soloshows. My age? 71 years 😊. Waiting on ( I hope) 2025, the next tour of NW. Greetings from The Netherlands.
We here in Europe, especially in Germany, took care of making up for the American ignorance. Thanks for not caring: this gave use more time and attention with them. But hey - you got Taylor and Beyonce - they is also very talented. And they might even still sell ticket with Mickey Mouse on. So don't grieve too much. Next time.
I'm 67 years and found this reciently too , same as u,and in the name in the words of a younger generation....OMG. ...I think the same of u!!!!geniuuuuus!!
Agreed , Floor certainly floored me with her superb singing Also a stunningly beautiful woman as was the bands other vocalist Tarja who could really sing, as well. The guys in this band sure know how to spot talent.
I wouldn't be as big into Nightwish as I am right now if not for Floor. I know a lot older fans will cry anathema, but Tarja can be a bit of a challenging listen sometimes. Floor is instantly accessible because you can instantly tell how amazing she is.
Update after a couple of weeks of listening to NW: Actually, I prefer Tarja's rendition of this, and also of Nemo. Both songs benefit quite a bit from her dark tone, as opposed to the more airy Disney Princess style vocals Floor used in this video.
@@ChrisBach1138 Glad you posted this a few weeks later. This song was made for Tarja's vocal range and tone. That's why the Floor version is not as good as Tarja one. Same happens with Kinslayer.
Floor is smart enough to not try to imitate Tarja with this. She brings her own style to the song. IMHO this song is so written to Tarja’s awesome voice. Love the song anyway
I disagree. I fell in love with Tarja's version, however, Floor is a much better technical singer and makes this version sound her own and in doing so gives Nightwish a different perspective. Floor is definitely the best thing for Nightwish.
I wholeheartedly agree with C David's comments below. I'm 69 and have just discovered Nightwish and am "blown away" ! Certainly you are NEVER too old to rock!
Nightwish one of the greatest and most overlooked band. Floor is awesome and on top of her game with this performance. The performance is mystical and haunting.
I love Tarja's version forever but Floor always takes her time to find out how to make a song work from her, and here it's softening the gorgeous gentle first half into really feeling like a sea then putting so much power into the end. Her work is really a gift.
Of course I like Tarja's performance better, but unfortunately time goes by, it's not for nothing that Nightwish decided to do Floor. There are no alternatives to her at the moment.
You can hear just the way the band is playing and performing that they feel reborn...so much energy and fresh inspiration..they are happy...Nightwish is complete again with Floor..even more complete...cause...and this is coming from a Tarja fan...Floor is the ultimate singer for Nightwish..her voice has everything!
True fan supports the band no matter what. Yes, it is true, they play like reborn, this is perfect said. Dark Passion Play was a great album, Imaginaerum was better. I love Nightwish since 1998 (Oceanborn) and I will love them till the end of my life. Tarja fan? Anette fan? Floor fan? Why they should be compared? They are so good, but different... If you are a "Tarja fan" what the hell are you doing here?! She is not here. Same question if you are "Anette fan"... All the vocalists are part of the history of the band and they should be respected as equal. Nightwish was, Nightwish is and Nightwish will be!
Sleeping Sun was my intro to Nightwish and I will always love Tarja's vocals on this the most, but Floor is talented and smart. I love listening to what she does with the older songs and am always looking forward to what she does next.
Sleeping Sun was also my introduction. Floor is talented, there's no doubt about that. She has been a satisfactory placeholder. But I still stand by that the band will never be the same without Tarja. I hope she comes back one day. Hell, her and Floor together with Marco would be even better. Then we could have the best of both worlds. If I may ask, where did you first hear Sleeping Sun?
This Live Version with Floor and the Live Version with Tarja are my favorites. Both so unique versions although this song was made for Tarja's voice, Floor made such a piece of art here 👏🏻
@@qdoem4865 The discussion was about Tarja and Floor, not about Anette. If you want operatic singing, go with Tarja. If you want pop style, go with Anette. For everything else, go with Floor.
I always respected the talent in Nightwish, the band, the studio recordings, their live shows, and especially the incredible songwriting! What a fantastic, and talented band!!! And that is hugely commendable in itself! But wow, when they had the good fortune of what they felt was a complete and utter disaster, and turning that into Floor joining the group, they caught lightning in a bottle! Floor Jansen is an absolute bad ass! "No one" does it better than Floor!!! No one has her beautiful, her memorizing stage presence, and incredible vocal ability! She always leaves me wanting even more!!! Floor is a rockstars, rockstar! And Nightwish gave her the ability to show the world how talented she really is! Long live Nightwish, long live Floor Jansen, and long live all of the members who've had the great fortune of being in such a wonderful band! Kiitos Nightwish, and thank you so very much for the endless hours of top notch entertainment:)
You like the song and the music, I'm with you, but you have to learn to be critical. Tarja was an interpreter with a powerful voice and a stage hostess. It cannot be imitated in any other way. That performance belongs to her, reinterpreting it differently is a fake
@@claudiosoldi9276 LOL. I watched End oof an era. I watched Wacken. On stage (talking about presence, and the way they behave), Tarja is almost a beginner in front of Floor. Technically they're different. Tarja was almost perfect in her style. Floor is very close behind, but mostly she's way WAYYYYYY more versatile. If you wonder why they were so happy to have Floor in Nightwish, remember they wanted her to replace Tarja, Annette was only the second choice because Floor was not available.
@@homere-d-allaure Errr....They picked out Anette from hundreds of possibilities and like her for her voice and singing style. Made two great albums with Anette too.
@@nafisahmohamed4371 did I say the opposite? Annette is a good singer, and her albums were great. I just said that Tuomas himself told that he wanted Floor when they fired Tarja. She was not available. THEN they asked Annette to sing for Nightwish. That's all.
@@homere-d-allaure Yep. My bad. Reflect after seeing so many thrash and trash Anette. By the way, the three ladies have different styles of live performances too apart from voices and singing styles. Anette has most fun dance moves, Floor has best headbangs and arms movements. Tarja has best prowls around stage and dresses. Cheers :)
I am 102 years old .... I never heard of NIGTHWISH.... But now I have one wish..... when I die....I hope soon..... I want this song to be played at my FUNERAL.... ;(
I consider myself a person schooled in lots of genres of music, however I am a bit ashamed to admit I have never heard of this band or Floor before yesterday. What a great voice.....the real deal
They all sing superbly, but why almost no one mentions Annette? Although at one time tours with her gathered full houses, because this is NIGHTWISH! In this segment of music they have practically no equal!
I love the band- a story in every song, Floor has an amazing voice, but let us also raise a glass to the often forgotten, but essential and excellent sound engineer!!
Y lo seguiremos viendo en el 2024 🤘NIGHTWISH es un grupo muy estructurado, me Encanta la versión de Tarja 👏 es única , tengo 64 años, mi hijo guitarrista, rockero, metalero y juntos escuchamos este gran grupo
Do you remember UA-cam's 'misheard' lyrics section, like 15 years ago? Nightwish had loads of songs there simply because no one could understand what Tarja was singing. 🤣
Floor versus Tarja, Tarja versus Floor - It's like a female version of Ozzy versus Dio!! If it has to be Floor for you then listen to Floor and the same with Tarja but, please, just respect each other!!
What a beautiful song, I only heard this band a few months ago, I was shocked of how much the band brought everything together so brilliantly, I wish I'd been a fan a long time ago, all the best xx
I knew of Nightwish about 15 years ago when my grandson was singing and acting Phantom of the Opera, I listened to few other songs but never heard Tarja or Floor perform this before seeing Nightwish In Kitee in June this year.Awesome song my other fav is Ever Dream Wacken 2013 ,another older song performed by Tarja and Floor .
@@nafisahmohamed4772 Wow, I wish I had had those words before I replied. She just shouldn't cover some songs and stick with what she knows like Storytime.

I like them all, but this is just epic and the version I like most. She has so much power in her voice, makes me melt away every time I watch it and it's nice for the eyes as well ☝🏻
nah. floor is great on many songs , but there are some - like this one - where tarja's voice fits better. Dead;s boy poem is another. Her voice is more haunting then floor;s , which fits the atmosphere of the song better.

Tarja and Floor both bring their own lovely interpretation of the song to it. Floor's voice is more delicate and pretty in this recording, whilst Tarja has such a full and powerful beauty in the original rendition. Both are excellent.
@@charliewade1057 I hadn't heard the Tarja version, so I just popped off to listen. Very nice, but I prefer Floor's vocals. Not a big fan of the operatic sound with lots of vibrato. For me, this version is better.
No, you are not the only one, who is listening and watching in 2024,... It's to beautiful,...
Especially to hear the voice of the lead-lady-singer Madam
"Floor Jansen." Her voice is very great.

Also a stunningly beautiful

Same happens with Kinslayer.
That woman is supernatural, in every possible way. Voice, emotion, charisma, attitude, intellicence, talent and optics.
Are you are crazy ?
she has the hole package
Optics? She's also an optometrist?
Odin's daughter, like all Valkyries.
Yes
Floor is smart enough to not try to imitate Tarja with this. She brings her own style to the song. IMHO this song is so written to Tarja’s awesome voice. Love the song anyway
I think it's to do more with the band moving away from their operatic style of music. Not just floor's decision to sing it differently.
I disagree. I fell in love with Tarja's version, however, Floor is a much better technical singer and makes this version sound her own and in doing so gives Nightwish a different perspective. Floor is definitely the best thing for Nightwish.
Get over it, Tarja is gone !
@@jesterhead1980 I do prefer the version with Tarja. This song was meant to be simple, aethereal and sentimental.
Tarja who?
I made a point of listening to this during totality of the 2024 eclipse a couple of days ago
Dieser wunderschöne Song begleitet mich schon so viele Jahre, erst Tarja, jetzt Floor. Bringt mich zum weinen im positiven Sinne
The way of showing power and skill without showing off.
Only Floor could make a live performance sound like the very best produced in a studio. Absolutely breathtaking. ❤️
Not to mention Floor is gorgeous❤
Well... the Eagles did it in Hell Freezes Over. But yeah... she did too. And she’s AWESOME!!
Then I take it you havent heard Tarja sing it live without mic, as I did in Oslo. Floor is a midget compare to her.
@@sluretass Tarja is not in the same vocal universe of Jansen. Try again.
Tarja is other-wordly.
Love Nightwish, but i do wish people would stop comparing the two singers, both are good, love the band and their music no matter what.
I agree!
Oh my god, this was such a soulful and intimate performance, my heart melted.
Melted mind to sweetheart 💝
Yes, a timeless message sung with appropriate pathos. At that moment, I want to have a woman at my right hand and hold her close to me.
I don't care much for Floor, but she performs this well - retroactively arranged for her.

Nightwish one of the greatest and most overlooked band. Floor is awesome and on top of her game with this performance. The performance is mystical and haunting.
Это ангельская песня. Люди добра и мира вам всем. Я вас всех люблю.
I see Floor with an angelical voice, but, as the same time i can see her getting an sword and going for the battle..
She can command an entire army only by singing, whatba force of nature gifted by the gods.
@@squalllionheart3453 Yeah, she is a powerful woman !
That is also where I'm at with floor. Since after forever she's just been this warrior queen vibe
And also level the opposing army with her voice. Just check out her band ReVamp. Misery's No Crime live she sounds like a pissed off mountain lion :-D
So calm and in control of her voice.. Amazing singer
As much as I like Tarja's version, Floor brings a softness to the song that the opera voice of Tarja never brought.
Amazing.
I like Tarja's version. My son got me into Nightwish a few years ago and I listen to them all the time - and I'm 66!!
This is Floor's version.

Lyrics
The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest
For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime
I wish for this night-time
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there's nothing left to say
I wish for this night-time
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
I wish for this night-time
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

I like them all, but this is just epic and the version I like most. She has so much power in her voice, makes me melt away every time I watch it and it's nice for the eyes as well ☝🏻
Helemaal met je eens
Top zangeres👍🥰
nah. floor is great on many songs , but there are some - like this one - where tarja's voice fits better.
Dead;s boy poem is another. Her voice is more haunting then floor;s , which fits the atmosphere of the song better.
You're not a Nightwish's fan. Tarja's version is the best. This one sounds weak, too Pop.

@@mihai000000 I LOVE Floor, but I fully agree with you.🤘🏼
It is always a pleasure to see Tuomas at the keyboards "singing" along with Floor, in the backround.
The men are so lucky to have her as their vocalist. She has a delicate but poweful voice.
floor jansen is not a human...she' the goddess...
What an incredible version. Floor has such a powerful voice and injects SUCH passion into her singing.
Floor is currently, in my opinion, the best vocalist in the style of symphonic rock! This is adorable!
Wunderschön super. Super Stimme ❤
Nightwish songs and Floor's voice pass through the ears and go straight to the heart.

Anyone an idea what the '222 days of light' refer to?
Beautiful.
@@honingbijtje83 Possibly the polar night and the polar day (midnight sun).
@@honingbijtje83 the whole song it’s a tribute to the solar eclipse in 1999. The 222 days are the number off day that year before the eclipse.
Ты неимоверная. Твой Вокал афигистический)
SIMPLY SPECTACULAR....no words from here in brazil
My favorite song in nightwish.. + my favorite female vocalist
Floor is the best singer in the world. She makes this beautiful song her own and touches me deeply!
Like an Angel
I don't know if it is theater or genuine, but that smile the keyboardist gives to someone in the beginning warms my cold heart....
At the beginning like a wraith, in the end like a valkyrie. Perfect!
This is my favorite version of sleeping sun hands down!!

for me only the old version with 2005 music video, one of my favorites forever
I keep watching it in 2024!😊
Floor Jansen did a wonderful job with the vocals here. To take absolutely nothing away with the amazing Tarja Turunen's original lead!
Yes! You're right!
Omg. I love this version with Floor. I just listened to it 10 times in a row. So hypnotizing
Tarja and Floor both bring their own lovely interpretation of the song to it. Floor's voice is more delicate and pretty in this recording, whilst Tarja has such a full and powerful beauty in the original rendition. Both are excellent.
Floor you sing with Angel voice and make much possible for a lot of people 😊
i can only imagine how amazing it must feel to stand there in the crowd and just listen to this live feeling the beat in your chest
Except you'd be standing there wishing Tarja was behind the microphone!
@@charliewade1057 I hadn't heard the Tarja version, so I just popped off to listen. Very nice, but I prefer Floor's vocals. Not a big fan of the operatic sound with lots of vibrato. For me, this version is better.
I was there. It was amazing.
