![NIGHTWISH - Romanticide [FIRST TIME COUPLES REACT]](/img/tr.png)
The cool part about this concert -- all 15 songs (this was #13) -- is that Floor was not yet announced as a permanent member, but I think it sealed it. The audience was 'floored' and the band was thrilled by how they reacted to her. And they showed it throughout. It was a rebirth of sorts after Anette was canned.
Funny thing is , that even I know the ending of this song so well (well, watched this at least hundred times), every single time I get shivers going through my spine, when Floor hits that astronomically high level at the end. Mother of all Floorgasms!
If you can watch this and do not have shivers - call the zombieslayer 'cause that isn't human.
It never gets old
It's incredible
Wanna hear something that tops this? "The Greatest Show On Earth" live at Tampere. The title of the song is well deserved.
I listened to it once right after discovering Nightwish with Ghost Love Score, and... I cried so hard, it made me an emotional wreck!
So I'm listening up to reactions to GLS first, building up the "courage" to go and listen to (and watch) The Greatest Show on Earth" (with Richard Dawking!) again.
Floor has taken this song to a new level , she is amazing
You guys talking like Floor has changed everything??? You noobs don't know anything about this band. Nothing happens without Tuomas here and he has gone back and changed things around, the high notes at the end are nothing Tarja couldn't do, they just have changed it and this may have been a suggestion from Floor, but who knows. You guys do know that Troy has also joined the band, and Tuomas has gone back through their catalogue and added Troy into the songs as well. Most of these Floor era songs just sound different from the originals due to the fact that Troy also pitches in. Don't get me wrong I like the changes, but it is not like Floor invented Symphonic Metal...
@@timometsanoja9666 I doubt that Tarja could hit that last note that Floor hits. Tarja didn’t have the range that Floor has and she was long gone by the end of the song. Floor stays to the end and adds enormous power. I always thought that Tarja thought of the guys as her backing band, where Floor is one of the band. I was never a fan of Tarja. It took Floor Jansen to make me appreciate what the band truly were. GREAT! I wouldn’t be listening to Nightwish if Tarja was still with them. It’s personal preference. There’s no right or wrong here. We like what we like. True? 🤷🏻♂️
@@alexhamilton4084 you gotta be kidding me... Tarja can probably go higher than Floor can. But it isn't all about who can go the highest. They changed the song, or rather Tuomas changed the song. Tarja wouldn't have had any issues hitting that hurrah by any stretch. The song was different back then. Tarja is a real life opera singer, she has the power and can do the opera stuff better than Floor. She is on the other hand way better at the contemporary singing than Tarja and thus is more versatile. But Floor cannot out-Tarja Tarja.
The way they did the song back then, the ending was quite a dud to be honest and those two performances should not be compared as they are essentially two different songs. And the fact that Troy brings a whole new layer to the music, so it sounds way different even without the singing. But it is not like Floor suddenly opened whole new avenues for Nightwish music. It is more in the vain of "they can finally do the old Nightwish material again". That Annette had no chance of doing.
Floor is an amazon goddess sent down from heaven. The whole symphonic metal thing was created by Tuomas, Tarja etc who were there when Nightwish was first formed. They were blazing a new trail and it is incredible that they were able to find Floor to carry the mantle forward for the band. The singers like Tarja and Floor are incredible as they can power on through on top of the metal sound and that is no easy feat and can be accomplished by very few people.
@@timometsanoja9666 No you are wrong. Tarja has a 3 octave range from F3 to D6. Floor has over 3 octave range from D3 to F6 which is both lower and higher than Tarja. So in fact Floor out Tarjas Tarja. You are welcome to the education lesson. No need to thank me. 🤘
@@alexhamilton4084 the last gasp belt is in the 5 range... So it is not like Floor is going all out on it either. And as I said, it is not about who can go higher or lower. They have very different styles and voices. Much like Annette is also a soprano, but she cannot hold a candle when it comes to fronting for Nightwish. Tuomas did do a good job with her as well, but the exact point here is that you people are here praising Floor and giving her credit for things that she did not just pull out as surprise to the rest of the band. This Tuomas doing his work and the magnificent ending is something Tuomas has signed off on and agreed that it works so much better, which we can all agree on.
All three Tarja, Annette and Floor are sopranos and their voices have similar ranges on the musical scale, but they are all very different singers... Their voices have different attributes to them. Basically you are looking at soccer players and say that this striker is better than this defender in this other country but this last guy plays goalie and he is better than the others combined... Sure they are all technically soccer players, but they have very distinct skills that make them best for their position, but are very different from each other. So stop with your nonsense...
And consider: this was (I think) the thirteenth song at Wacken. She'd been singing at this level for an hour. And then she does THIS.
She is something else.
As if the world ever was normal... but I get what you're saying, over a year later.
One could read on Mat's face at some point, that there was absolutely no brain activity apart from the hearing center. How many masterpieces can be put out by one single band?
Speaking of your pun, One of the Nightwish guys gave her a sign for her birthday several years ago, saying: "Caution, wet floor".
My brother once took the typical "cleaning in progress" sign with a silhouette person falling over, added horns on their head and removed a few letters, leaving "leaning ogres". This is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
I heard it was fan, possibly among the crew - Crewish! She takes it everywhere with her (on tour)!
It is actually caught on video, but I don't remember which documetary right now
@@damienmaynard8892 I don't know if she takes it everywhere, but she apreciated the joke and i saw a picture of her carrying it.
@@kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038 "learn the set list in 48h" and im sure that was the promotor of one show in the states .
well she looks like an Angel, she sings like an Angel, she probably is an Angel... but wait she is the Valkyrie Godess 😂💥
"7 Days to the Wolves" Wembley 2015. Floor and Marko on vocals. Floor and Tuomas windmilling.
This song was originally written for Tarja Turunen, their 1st female vocalist & co-founder, but Floor made it her own especially by adding the high notes at the end.
P.S. As always, I enjoyed your reaction.
And Tarja do not the "death Note ".i see her End of...version
In the Tarja version the choir takeover and became more and more dominant at the end while Tarja is fading out like she’s agree in breaking up with the band.
A real ‘End of an Era’ experience.
Not Floor, she doesn’t let that happen. She just took over. Take the lead, and rules the song. Giving the song a complete different meaning and direction.
@@papaverweg hallo friend, i hear dead boys poem, first in the Tarja version, think ,ok, then Floor ,live in BUENOS AIRES..and i want to cry..Floor nailed all Tarja Songs( ok Stargazers?)
@VK I would like to hear Tarja sing it like Floor, high notes and all...but wait, Tarja has no band. Maybe she could do it in a studio...
A great Nightwish reaction without much floorgasmus interruptus! Thank you for that, glad you've liked it!
My Valkery Queen. Floor & Nightwish gaining fans everyday. Can't wait to gather with my Nightwish family 2021 😁
more theatrical songs - Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Dead's Boy Poem or Slaying the Dreamer live in Buenos Aires
The Poet and the Pendulum and Greatest Show on Earth are right up there with GLS
This was an unrepeatable performance. The only way to do so is to watch it a recording. It's astounding and affecting every time I watch it. I've seen different performances of it, but this is Gold Standard. I was panicking you'd pause at the vital moment, but you stopped just in time. I was also worried Chels wasn't feeling it.
Mat: It's cheesy, but we've ALL done it. She's used to the jokes by now. She's a classy lady, and takes it in the spirit it's intended to be.
Unrepeatable? I say Tampere is better than this one. But everyone always shows Wacken.
@@XXXenophile This is way beyond Tampere for me. No other performance comes close.
@@ChrisPage68 Absolutely Wacken 2013 the entire setup acoustically, the entire set, performance, blows Tampere out of the water. Floor is at her very best on the Wacken 2013 too. 🤘
As you saw, GLS Wacken 2013 is not famous without some reasons. It's Glorious, Luxurious and Supreme performance. And a showcase of Floor's vocal talents. Glad you liked it like the rest of us humans.
This band amazing....They are the best group of musicians I've ever seen on one stage....
Nightwish Army grunt here. We heard that you were playing Nightwish so we had to investigate. Great reaction and thanks!!
A masterpiece of a performance from all of the band. Floor's voice is just amazing as always. What a performance
“I don’t know if there’s a performance that could top that.” Queue The Greatest Show On Earth.
This song gives me the idea about a person searching from childhood via experiences coming to adulthood.
The storyline of this song starts in the past. The person get back to his teenage years. The time when you can still have all kinds of (unrealistic) fantasies about carefree living and finding an everlasting love. A time when everything is possible and no large human world exists. He still believed in God who made and controlled everything.
The intermezzo is a kind of dream state in which he ends up and finally awakens. This turns his whole life upside down and nothing is fixed anymore. Everything comes up for discussion and he has to reinvent himself and what he believes.
And at the end he saw the light, found new goals in life, starts to love again, and walks his own path.
Yes this song is usually the first song many ppl of Nightwish, but hey, so long as you hear it in the first 7-8 songs BEFORE you ever think about listening to Poet and the Pendulum or The Greatest show on earth then you are good! I became a fan of Nightwish in middle school, when Tarja was firmly the lead, so I very much appreciated you finding Tarja first, not many reactors get around to Tarja or Annette until way after 12-13 songs in the channel. Again welcome to Nightwish! Keep the vids coming!
We will never truly get MAD. We are just anxious to see your reaction to this unique and special composition by our favorite band. This song was made to spotlight the female vocal performance. You will see great harmonizing in songs to come my friends. Now you see why we wanted you to check this song out. For harmonizing you may want to check out some of the songs from the Decades tour in Buenos Aires. Many of those songs have 3 part harmonies with Marco and Troy. My suggestion would be "10th Man Down", "Sacrament of the Wilderness", "Deep Silent Complete", or Elvenjig/Elvenpath". All from 2018. These are older songs with new music and vocal arrangements. See you then. Peace.
Three part harmonies?!? I may lose my mind. Thank you for the suggestions! 🤘
DOn't forget I want my Tears back from Decades in Argentina
To give you a bit of perspective: This is the annual festival at Wacken, Germany, with 82,500 folks, that is held every year (except 2020) on the first weekend of August for 4 days and sells out within 24 hours. They were headliners, and close to the end of a 572 day world tour, that touched every continent but Antarctica, where they played for 1.4 million people, the few concerts in the US at the beginning of the tour being relatively small venues, when Floor joined, and had to learn the set within 48 hours. This song is # 13 of 15 songs, at about 1:30, so I guess they deserve a sandwich, or whatever break. If harmonizing is what you missed, just watch the whole concert, it's available here.
To have been at that concert would have been one of the best epic moments of my life if not the best.
Hi there...this is Nightwish Army here...so glad finally you guys decided to review a Nightwish stuff...thank you for you review for GLS...please do another stuff and i as Nightwish Army will promise...you guys will not regret...Welcome You to Symphonic Metal...Nightwish Army very Welcome you..🍻🤟
82K People with Floorgasems😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great reaction, I knew you'd be blown away. I took note of your liking for harmonisation so I'm recommending 'Sacrament of Wilderness' live from Buenos Aires. Now, most reactors don't cover this so you and your subs might enjoy it! Keep 'em coming, we've got so many more to suggest! I'm a big Babymetal fan too - they were the last gig I attended in London - such a wonderful experience!
🤘🇫🇮 online Nightwish - 43 degrees Fahrenheit outside... This warms me up after being for walk
Although not a headbanger, Ghost Love Score is a great song to showcase the vocal versatility of Floor. It’s also her favorite song to sing. Anything to top this? Well, there’s the 21 min Greatest Show on Earth at Wembley about evolution starting with the Big Bang and ending with rat-kind and the 14 min Poet and the Pendulum at Tampere. If you do the Poet be sure to do some research on the song first. It has to do with the deep depression Tuomas went through after firing Tarja, the first singer, and the backlash from the fans. And yes, there is some head banging in both songs. Use the versions with subtitles to fully get the lyrical meanings. They are both totally epic pieces. 😄🤘
"21 min Greatest Show on Earth at Wembley".
Let them please pick the Tampere version, it's 10 times better visually.
I would certainly switch to the opposite selections - Greatest Show on Earth from Tampere 2015 and The Poet and the Pendulum from Wembley 2015.
The Greatest Show on Earth from Tampere are more spectacular with their use of gimmicks - and it is a must to stay on, until the very end of the video, while it is a part of the show
@@Harolddespui Ya, I got both of them reversed. Mind ahead of fingers. 😜
GLS is Floor's favorite, but she says "Everdream" is the most difficult
You are allowed to say "I'm floored" but the correct term is "I had a floorgasm"
Yeah... Get terminology right lol
Chels - I swear I saw your eyes roll back ever so slightly when she hit that last note. LOL! I've been there, honey!
PS - I love your shirt!!
nightwish one of my favorite bands they super epic ya!!
Great reaction. As the name suggests this is a score, yes has an epic instrumental breakdown. It has several parts which showcase different elements and of course Floors voice. Most reactors start here if not comfortable with Metal and are drawn in.
Ha, most start the nightwish journey with this song.
Many people who do the reaction video's are no metal fans and have to be eased into it.
This is the perfect song for that.
You started with the more heavy stuff.
Nightwish is a Tour de Floor's! (Pun unapologetically intended) LOL Enjoyed your react, BTW!
This was the 13 song in this concert, to me it's like a on core, they take a break and come back out and finish the concert. They do 2 or 3 more songs ,can't remember exactly. I think this song shows all the different styles that Floor can sing.
No. Only some of them! :)
Two other masterpieces the Poet and the Pendulum in Wembley live and the Greatest Show on Earth live in Tampere. 🤟🤟✌️✌️🇨🇦
Really putting the symphony in symphonic metal! Almost Wagner - heralding the approach of the Valkyrie!... and then Floor sings!.... There's a flawless performance and now there's a Floor-ful performance! Not Punny?... Interlude... EPIC! exactly! Talent off the scale! .... Welcome back! Have a nice trip!? Nice Floorgasms!
Funny that you bring up sirens. The ending of The Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembley would make any ship captain steer their ship right into the rocks. I swear, Floor’s voice on that is 100% perfection.
When that interlude occurs, it amazes me how quiet 85,000 people become. They are so engrossed. Totally pacified.
"I dont know if there is any performance that can top that by them"
Wait until you get to "The Poet and the Pendulum" lol. Floors vocals absolutely amazing. Great Reaction 😎.
I actually do sleep to Ghost Love Score! Thats the reason why it took this long to watch your reaction as I have been stacking GLS-reactions to my watch later list. Rationing them.
The lady has such a poker face. You can't tell if she likes something or not until she says it. She looks extremely bored the whole time. Don't get me wrong, that's got something. I wish I could keep that look while playing poker. My chances of winning would be greater. 😁
Agree 👍
You mean Puh-puh-puh poker face? ;-)
@@brewswillis9783 that's right!!!!!
You play poker? Because looking at her facial expression I would clean her out. And i don't even know how to play poker.
Every moment there is a raising of the lip corners or a frown or the dimples in her cheeks get a bit deeper indicating how she likes it. Not everybody shows appreciation by falling out of the chair when they are floored ( okay after this comment i'll take the door on the left side of the stage, because the Floor reference is overplayed and cheesy as f). But look at it again. Pay attention to the intermissionpart. When the bass hobo plays that little part for instance. She pauses afterwards but she ain't fooling me. She loved that bit. When the Valkyrie Godess hits that high note? That rimple on her forehead deepens. The outtro right after that? The nodding of her head. And yes: at the final rundown she is even doing bubblehead. It's the little things that tell the tale every Nightwish Army combattant knows: She loved it.
@@diamondback6653 Good for you. You have the perspective. Nevertheless, I don't need a lesson in micro expression. I don't have to watch the video again either. I've seen several. And as I said indirectly, it was a compliment. I have no idea what made you want to enlighten me. If I want a lesson, I ask someone with relevant references. 😉 Thx 😁
Btw I don't need an army, I have my own opinion. Obviously, you need a army to reinforce your point of view.
love your channel
Finally..... great song, great react!
There is only one performance in the work that can top that , dimash -sos d’un terrine , from the talent show the singer
You must react to Floor's performance at Beste Zangers 2019. If You love Floor, you love It.
Yeah, just search "Floor Beste Zangers" and start with Phantom of the opera :)
I'm Dutch myself but I had never heard of the Dutch tv-shows Beste Zangers until I discovered Nightwish here on YT, and Floor.
It's a score, it's made to change up several times and go just about anywhere.. Floors voice also needed to be free to change and switch styles to match up with the musical changes that were going on.. Most song Marco is in harmony with Floor, even Troy will work backup with them at times..
hey Mat & Chels ,sorry it appears you did the Blue Ray version which is about 3-4% slower than the actual song,as you can see from the views which is very low,this is the one you wanted : NIGHTWISH - Ghost Love Score (OFFICIAL LIVE)18,718,518 views
•Nov 15, 2013 : ua-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/v-deo.html
but stil great and great reaction as always, more Wacken 2013 so many great songs to experience.
cheers
Welcome to Nightwish. You'll find that Tuomas, the composer, often uses quieter sections to build tension or relax the listener so that the following section has more impact. This is especially effective during the heavier songs like 7 Days to the Wolves and Romanticide. Not to worry Chels, Floor and the bass player Marko harmonize in ways you won't believe until you see it. Check out Yours is an Empty Hope, where Marko take on the high vocals while Floor shows you how low she can go. Subbed and looking forward to joining you on your journey.
For me this song is the best with Floor singing it, it is so emotional, beautiful, co cinematic and i love the interpretation Floor gives it.
Dark Chest of Wonders wacken 2013 which was the opener and Shudder Before the Beautiful the opener from Wembley 2016
Ha Ha...This gets requested so much because we enjoy the looks on your faces when she does HER ( not in the original version, Floor & Tuomas added it ) thing at the end. ....Never gets old !
2 more souls swept away by our Valkyrie goddess. Check out Song of Myself from the same show for some harmonizing. A little heavier than GLS but just as mystical. Subbed to join you on your Nightwish journey. Enjoy the ride.
I personally don't think it's their "Best Song" (it's one of many) but it's definitely the Best Performance.
Nightwish sucks you in and takes you with them on adventures. Especially now with Floor. She's just so good in translating emotions with her voice. But it's Tuomas too. He's so good in building suspense and bringing extra dramatics in his compositions. Them two would already be golden. But no, it doesn't stop there. The whole freaking band is talented af! Wait till you meet Troy. He's their Swiss army knife. He seems to be able to play any musical instrument, plus he sings. His voice isn't powerful like Floor and Marko though. I'd describe his voice as soft and warm. But imo he's the star when he plays the Uillean pipes. (Irish bagpipes).
Vocal Trainers flip backwards when they see a real Trainer ;)....they can`t trrain something like Floor.....next level.
Appreciate the cheesy joke about Floor, Bro. Her Goddess presence sanctifies it, and makes it holy!
Floor + NIGHTWISH = Power.
Nightwish Army Reporting for Duty! I know you have reacted to "Romanticide", "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean", and now "Ghost Love Score". First off, thank you very much. But trust me, you have only scratched the surface. I highly suggest the following (and if you aren't addicted enough to keep going into eternity after this, we've failed you):
- "Yours Is An Empty Hope" (Live, most will suggest @ Wembley because it's easiest to hear Floor's very important vocals without much interruption, though I prefer the cruise ship personally. . . dealer's choice)
- "Storytime" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
- "Song of Myself" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
- "A Dead Boy's Poem" (Live @ Buenos Aires)
- "Ever Dream" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
- "Ghost River" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
- "Poet and the Pendulum" (Live @ Wembley; This one you HAVE to save for a while or the fans might riot, but when you do, most prefer you do your research on the song first)
- "Noise" (Music Video- New Album; hasn't been done Live yet)
- "Tribal" (Offical Lyric Video- New Album; hasn't been done Live yet)
- "Amaranth" (Live)
- "Last Ride of the Day" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
-"Dark Chest of Wonders" (Live @ Wacken 2013)
- "Greatest Show On Earth" (Live @ Tampere; DEFINITELY wait on this one for a while. . . sometime even after "Poet and the Pendulum")
These are my personal favorites and some of their most highly praised songs. Trust me, you will have a very happy Nightwish Army. :) Of course, I could certainly go on, but I hope this is a helpful list. Thanks again, you guys are great. I think outside of Nightwish you guys also have similar tastes in music, so great channel!
P.S. I left off Tarja stuff because I doubt you will like her much, though you should probably watch her perform "Nemo" (I personally prefer Floor on that still, but I get it) or "Phantom of the Opera". Also, "Bye, Bye, Beautiful" (Music Video) is great for their second singer, Anette. ;)
Greatest show on earth From Tampere, I think? Wasn't even recorded when they played Wacken 2013. Honest mistake, I'm sure 😊
@@toiddiot1629 it was an honest mistake. You are right, it's definitely Tampere. Got too crazy typing! Will fix. Thanks for the catch ;)
Nice seeing you being defrosted during the trip.... love your reaction! whT'S TO WATCH NEXT, BUT MORE NIGHTWISH? You could try 'Snarky Puppy' their epic Lingus or Shofukan. Thanx!
Great song. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments.
You've already reacted to Romanticide, so we'll skip that one. The next on the list, same venue (Wacken 2013) is "Song Of Myself". She WILL be happy! lol
Thanks again for the video. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘
Also, since you started with Tarja's Phantom of the Opera, it would only be right that you do a reaction video on Floor's version of that song on the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers, where she does a duet with her opera influence, long time idol, and professional opera singer, Henk Poort, who played the Phantom in the Dutch version for many years.
You got another SUB! 😊❤🤘🤘
Epic is the right word to describe Floor and Nightwish. Less is not even an option. Good you mentioned the production. Wacken is not just good at their line-up but their productions are indeed excellent! Nice call. 🇳🇱
For perfect harmonizing please watch Og3ne’s Bohemian Rhapsody, home isolation version.
Went to there concert lastnight in Toronto
Nightwish soldier reporting in from The Netherlands 💕💕💕 Goddes Floor
Lol, they looked like they needed a cigarette after the video.
Yesss!
That was a great reaction of the both of you 👍👍
Nightwish is so much better with Floor by their side,not to critisize Tarja, for then it was oke but they are so mature now ,can't wait to see them touring again.
Kind regards from the Netherlands and stay healthy ❤
Dude in the right gets it. " Mmmmm" lol
Try Dead boys poem live in Buenos Aires 🤘 for something as epic
Iv'e been floored lmfao🥸🥸
FLOOR IS DUTCH🇳🇱🌷🇳🇱 AND AMAZING
NIGHTWISH ALSO AMAZING 🙋🏼♀️😘
Floor is soooo beautiful !!!!
She sure is!
Floor Jansen herself reacts to Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013 with lots of anecdotal insight
ua-cam.com/video/QW_3F186_5Q/v-deo.html
The Queen Floor Jansen🤘🔥
The music is called symphonic metal and is very populair in Europe and South America. The band is from Finland and founded in 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 Later (2015) replaced by Kai Hahto because of health issues (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 world-tour 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 fans 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. ;-)
Can you explain why specifically South America? As a Finn I’ve always found that interesting ☺️
FLOORGASM
I know you have had your Nightwish vaccinations before this one...imagine what it is like for a rookie being introduced to the band with this performance!....I think since you just had your booster shot from this one, you may safely now proceed to "The Greatest Show on Earth".....now judging from your prior review, you like it hard (hey who doesn't?) so bear with the intro.....it's actually quite beautiful but its all Tuomas on the piano.....It's 5 different "arias" in one beautiful symphony the part entitled "Life" may be their best work ever.......you may want to take a minute or two to research the meaning of the song....very deep....I think you would like the liver version from Tampere Finland....and watch to the very end.....the end of the song is taped ad plays while they are taking their bows.....the pyro and fireworks are insane too.....btw, this one will make you immune to COVID.......great review today as always!
You need to hear Song of Myself next. 👍🏻😃
If you like Nightwish, listen to Floors best friend Simone Simons, with the band Epica (Dutch Symphonic Metal) Good Start is "Consign to Oblivion" Live in Paris: ua-cam.com/video/dkqyyUTCMUQ/v-deo.html
Love Floor and didn`t react After Forever yet?
Unacceptable. Look for AF`s "Monolith of Doubt" live.
When I watch u two it makes me want to smoke weed! Lol💋
Thanks
Yours is empy hope or Ghost river next if you want the Marko Floor experience :-)
Hey Mat ...... I'm the captain over the ship :)
Wreck that ship! Wreck that ship!
No surfers here....just offerings ;)
Unbelievable, Floor is perfect and the band is insane, in a theater, still a bit def lol
OMG. 7 Days To The Wolves
For some harmonizing vocals, try Everdream, same concert ua-cam.com/video/1Xi4n8dJcF8/v-deo.html or Ghost River ua-cam.com/video/05eitd-EA6I/v-deo.html
For me Tarja version is the one. It is like if you compare Frank Sinatra "New York, New York" with a version with an other singer. It can be very good but it is not the same.
Floor is the best from Holland ❤❤❤❤
Now this is music.
Musicians that actually play masterfully
An a singer that can actually sing.
This is what music is supposed to be. So over the computerized cookie cutter crap that most bands are putting out for decades. In every genre.
