"This is the most personal song I’ve ever written. My testimony for the whole world. With this song I want to apologise to everyone who deserves my apology. It also makes an “I don’t care” -statement to the ones who deserve it. The song is also about what Nightwish means and has meant to me. It (Nighwish) is everything, without it I’m dead. I have created it and it has created me.
When I pass away, this song’s lyrics are what I wish to be remembered by: An Ocean Soul."
Tuomas Holopainen
She's so beyond perfection... It's unworldly.
Floor may have delivered her best performance in this song. She gives us every side of her talents in this one. My favorite Nightwish song.
Mine as well❣️
The end gives me chills every time. It may be my favorite Floor moment. It's got a lot of strong competition though.
Swan (Finnish national bird) takes you to TUONELA ! "(Valhalla")
This is how anyone who understands and feels quality music will respond. Thank you dear JVB
One of the best reactions to this song I have ever had the privilege to see, and I do not say this lightly. This is a deeply emotional one, for every listener for their own reasons. One thing that can be said universally, is the voice and presence of Floor.
And as an aside, there are few who can pull off the Till Lindemann moves (in the lead part to the end crescendo). Floor nails it!
Thank you so much!
If you loved the first part of the song and the softness of her voice you should watch her version of Shallow (Lady Gaga) on the Beste Zangers TV show. She outdid Lady Gaga in my opinion. She also did a version of Phantom of the Opera with Opera singer Henk Poort. D6 for 8 seconds. All of her songs in this programme are incredible and she sings in 4 languages German, English, Dutch and Spanish.
Ànd that is why they are the best live band on the planet imho. Loved your reaction to this stunning song/performance. Thankyou very much.
Thank you.
@@jacquelinevanbierk tho your still at the start of your NW journey w/Floor of course :) this is the best band in the world,composition, song structure, lryics,musicianship , Live performances, and vocals from the best female singer of our time
Her voice melt my soul, if that make sense every time
This is why the Nightwish Army called Toumas the Mozart of Metal and Floor is his voice that transported his thoughts to the stage and to the fans.
At the top of my list of the best Nightwish songs.
Yes, friend, for me too. 🤘
This is the first time I've heard this song incredibly and JVB you are right " What the hell ". I love your reactions. NIGHTWISH RULE. Incredible band. One or the one of the best I have EVER heard. I am 60 next year
The "Mother of all Nightwish Songs"
That last note. Full body chills Everytime.
great reactionJvB, yeah indeed an epic masterpiece that obv. means a lot to Tuomas and the band; you can see it by the seriousness and perfection they performed it.
Floor shows so many versatility in this song, and the last belts are so emotional; standing with the fist in the air like a super hero at the end. She is Unique. ❤❤🐺🤘💥
I want to comment on Floor's singing, but I have nothing adequate.
Note: Don't try not to cry. That is the beauty of her singing.
Loved your reaction! This is also what this song does to me … every time. The build-up to the release at the end is phenomenal! Then the vocals at the end just crush me to tears. This song, as you noted, is unexpected and yet so devastatingly powerful. I’ll be watching your reaction a number of times over.
Edit to add: notice that when the song ends the crowd chants, “Floor! Floor! Floor! … “
Thank you. Yes, super powerful.
Nightwish at its best, the whole Band.
Nobody else can compose and perform Like Tuomas, Floor and Nightwish. Tuomas writes performances. Another commenter said, "They're like gods... with instruments."
There is so much genius in this work that it is difficult to know where to begin. Everything, from the stage set to the lyrics to the music itself has a purpose. Floor's heart-rendingly beautiful performance is beyond comparison - only she could deliver the emotional truth of this work. There is so much more here to understand.
Note the swans in the background - these are the swans of Tuonela, said in Finnish mythology to be the conveyors of souls to the afterlife. Note how the boy has his arms raised in the hope and the longing of embracing that journey, yet - there he remains. It's worth a listen to Sibelius' The Swan of Tuonela to see where part of Tuomas ' inspiration came from. Here's Herbert von Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker: ua-cam.com/video/HjyLWoJvtME/v-deo.html. Exquisite.
Emppu's ravishingly beautiful solo is David Gilmour class in the way it conveys the sadness, the anguish of a soul who has been left behind in a lonely and forsaken world. It's a cry of anguish, reinforced by the funereal march of the music behind and complementing the solo. You'll hear that same sort of expression in David Gilmour's last solo of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb. I always felt that towards the end, it became the funeral march of a lost and tormented soul. All of the anguish and regret of something glimpsed and lost is distilled and channeled into one extended searing cry. So it is with Emppu's solo, yet it is so deftly and effortlessly woven into this masterpiece of Tuomas' that you don't quite realize what it's doing to you. Note that there is none of Emppu's usual smirking or goofing around in this one. He is dead serious (excuse the pun) and it shows in his expression. So much so that he has to turn away from the audience when he is done.
Now this is going to tick some of you off but sincerely, I don't care. Floor is the goddess that Tarja never was, never will be. Tarja's operatic talents are beyond dispute. You can admire her talent as you would an exquisite work of art, but somehow it's always at arm's length. Tarja lacks the emotional depth and sheer empathic power that Floor has. Floor becomes what she sings. And Floor can sing your soul right out of your body. There is only one other talent that can stand in the company of Floor, and that's Simone Simons of Epica. You'll hear what I mean in performances like Unleashed and Kingdom of Heaven (part 3). We are fortunate to share this worldline with these two incomparable goddesses.
Best reaction ever .....girl you got me crying over here 😭
Thank you, didn't mean to ;)
@@jacquelinevanbierkive heard this song a 1000 times and you made it feel like it was my first time .
Chills... Just chills.... And tears about fall with that soft tone, I have a soft spot for Dead Boy's Poem, is so sad, but delicate, so special. It made me fall in love with Tuomas' songwriting
And fun fact: this video made me realize Emppu (guitarrist) has blue eyes lol I imagined they were light, but still... Also seeing him so serious is very unusual but it fits the song's mood perfectly
One reason I like watching JVB react to Floor is that they both have flawless rhythm. That's no small thing for a singer.
Authentisch, emotional und intelligent wie alle deine Reaktionen. Macht Spaß dir dabei zuzuschauen. Liebe Grüße aus dem herbstlichen Hamburg 😘
Vielen Dank Marcus!!! LG aus Michigan ;)
Dam good reactions, made my eyes water. AGAIN
That bass/guitar combo I think is specially built for Marko and fondly nicknamed The Beast because it weighs close to or just over 8 kg.
Absolutely stunning reaction x
This is such an emotional song and performance. 😎🤘
Thanks for your reaction, Jacqueline!
What a great reaction, thank you!
And in the end Floor Floor Floor Floor Floor yes
Dear Jacqueline... First: I think all Nightwish-members ánd their family (us all), are exc. these kinds of people you talked about, in the last part of your outstanding warm and beautiful reaction. Second: when Floors incredible voice (this huge and incomparable 'instrument') has been left 'dry', so, not a single important effect been layed over it, she belongs to the very few real artists worldwide, who sounds so deep and warm...her vocai capabilities are so 'in control'! Jacqueline, thnx for your honest, genuine reaction...it helped loads of people
The Visuals are just as Powerful as the song.
For me this is one of the Epics 😇😇😇and of course Floor proofs once again that she is a Goddess of Empathy 😇😇😇😇😇.
Hail Nightwish
She has so much control over her voice, it's her strongest point IMO
Emppu's face shows the heart he has put into this amazing song! Stunning. Greetings from Northern Ireland.
Love your reaction,you were having a ball🎵
This song touched me the most in the concert. I still get tears when I hear it. Thanks for your beautiful reaction.
Emppu being unusually serious.
Marco jamming with Troy.
Floor starts off softly, building, soaring higher and higher, oooh.
Multi!
Yep, duty to share. Not always easy to do.
That double neck instrument is even more amazing in that it SOUNDS like a big body acoustic. Outstanding timbre.
I love when Empu plays it is just plain right. Fast, slow fine, complex...always right.
Heard her preform this song so many time, and still everytime goosebums and shill's. She truely is a the goddess of metal. May I dare to say.......the best female singer around......Just love every preformence I hear, and see.
♣♣ this performance is out of this world, unreal!!!♣♣ thx for your great reaction
Tolle Reaction! Man merkt, dass du Nightwish und Floor genau so sehr gefallen wie mir. ;-) Grüße aus Österreich!
great reaction JVB, our Goddess at one of her best songs, so much power , and yet so much beauty ....... it's a beautiful song 🤘🤘👍👍
JVB....Told ya....So much emotion....By far my favorite.....Tissues and chills every time. Thanks for reacting, a lot of us knew you would love it as we do. Be well.
Chills from beginning to end, my favorite one❣️
The untouchable Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen!!! There is NO frontwoman stronger and more powerful on the stage than Dutch Coloratura Soprano Floor Jansen!!
She is the third singer for Nightwish and the most versatile. We love her and all of us have chills and goosebumps(Floorgasms)on every song.
I still cry at the end of this song, after hundreds of listens. Also in Shoemaker !! Wonderful Reaction, girl ! Absolutely wonderful ❤️!!!
Floor's sound speaks to everyone with empathy
Great reaction as ever Jacqueline. I love this song and they should include it as part of their set list. Her range of vocal talents on display here is extraordinary.
One of my top 5 so looking forward to this.
That guitar is called "The Beast". It's a Warwick Bass and Framus guitar (parts of the same company).
Emppu is more serious in this than any other I can think of. Even in TPATP he smiles but not here.
Knew you'd love it.
Love "The Beast" ;) Yes, loved it.
One of my favourites 😍breathtaking Performance
Two things i must wrote. First your reaction and your face and body performance hits me right in the heart. and second, i like the way you respect Emppu. Emppu is the most underrated guitarist in the world, why? Emppu is not a poser, Emppu is just "Emppu".
Nice emotional reaction.
Thank you Dolla!!!
Watching a beautiful woman drool over another beautiful woman. It doesn’t get much better than that 😎
Thank you 💖
You seem to be ready for "The Poet and The Pendulum". I usually don't suggest this masterpiece too early, but I can see, that you will feel the gist, and hear the anguish in TPaTP. If you check out some information, about what all did happen, at the time when Tarja got fired, you will be able to carry this wonderful piece even closer to your heart. "The Poet And The Pendulum" - Nightwish. HQ with lyrics. Live @ Wembley 2016 ua-cam.com/video/iEzZRMthhXU/v-deo.html
she is the Benchmark .....
The crowd ..Floor..Floor..Floor...she is the Queen
Good morning my sweetheart! Great reaction ❤️
This was a super reaction from you - you felt it, you got an experience that you was supposed to - this was exactly what we all wanted for you. We love Nightwish and Floor because of their ability to express emotions and passions, that give us - and you - exactly these experiences.
And your face gave you away, you have become a true Nightwish Army member 👍 🤘 🤘
Super and honest reaction from you - you are the best ❤️
Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘
Wonderfull reaction to a awesome Song JvB.😊
Thank you.
Loved the reaction Jacqueline, don't worry about holding the tears back, I cried for you as I'm sure most of the others watching did. Please don't hold the tears back, just let the emotions flow out naturally. As you will know only too well as a musician, this is what music is all about. Take Care X
Thank you Lee!
Floor will be singing on the new star one project
That’s great news! There is already a clip published by Arjen
Marco is an exclusive artist of Warwick guitars. Thats a Warwick Infinity/Panthera doubleneck bass/guitar. And as always Emppu is rocking his beautiful signature ESP EV-1 model.
TankTheTech aproves this comment
Absolutely loved,loved your reaction 😌💜✨
Is think Nightwish - "The Poet And The Pendulum" will be a nice continuation.
Weeping every time..love this Tarja or Floor..doesn't matter, this song is so full off emotions IMO . Thank you, great reaction 🤘🏻🤗
Sad song but strangely uplifting tone to it ...
Hail Nightwish !!!
NWSU 🤘😎🤘.
Thanks that you take my request at first😊😘I hope you have a wonderful day.
One of my favorites from Floor and the boys. What an ending!
This is a very emotional and personal song for Tuomas. The small child's voice represents Tuomas speaking. When asked what this song was about "Tuomas has said about this song, that it's about if he were to die tomorrow, what would he want to say to everyone that he loves, and that love him..." Notice the small boy on the screen reaching out to the flying swans on the screen. The swan is the guide to the afterlife in Finnish mythology. He is reaching out to implore them to take him with to the other side. A beautiful song filled with sadness from an unfulfilled destiny.
Loved it JVB! 💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏💎😊 Your ending commentary sounds like you need to check out a new song from Nightwish. "How's the Heart"
So beautiful. Thank you for the song suggestion. ;)
Hi Jacqueline , great reaction and a little misty eyed . I have a request for Steve Perry - Were Still Here from 2018 , it would be his return to music after a 25 year singing hiatus . I would be awfully greatful .
I enjoyed your reaction so much. I shared all those goosebumps too. Wave after wave.. it´s incredible.
oh i just enjoyed watching your reaction .you were so into the song and feeling it .wow that is what i feel hearing this song .
thank you .
by the way did you here the crowd .at the end after finisching the song .
shouting. floor floor floor
By the way!
I've been told that Floor was feeling ill during this concert, with a fever, and yet she pulled that performance 🥰
The first time I saw this live performance of this song was also the first time in my life that I didn't actually realize I was crying, but I was.
Wouw Jacqueline again a good Reaction from you.
Love your smile.
Greetings from the Netherlands.👍🤘.
Jacqueline, what a great reaction I can really fell that you "fellt" the song 💖🤘
Good reaction Jacqueline, as usual :) We can feel your emotions as well as your irresistible need to move in rhythm...
Floor is a fine wine
Another thought! Please react to ‘ Ghost river? Blow your mind!
I love the transition in the final part, when they go to that octave (is that well said, an octave?) Higher. It is a musical journey.
I am like you, lets smile to life and to the world 😁🥰
The next one to experience would be poet and the pendulum 🤗🤗
But you MUST tale your time to learn the story behind this song, to really feel IT 🥰🥰🇩🇰🇩🇰
One of the most beautiful songs Nightwish has is Our Decades In The Sun from Endless Forms Most Beautiful. Never performed live by NW but Floor sang it on her solo tour.
Tuomas wrote a song on the latest album which touches upon what you are talking about at the end of the vid. "How's The Heart" asks just that. It also has a nice little part about Floor and Hannes meeting, getting married, and having Freja. You can see Floor's eyes light up on the lines, and she and Troy did an acoustic version for Planet Rock( ua-cam.com/video/yYtkPpFYzOo/v-deo.html ), and for one of the Live Streams.
How's the heart
Underneath the silence?
How's the one
Drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean
Come in, the fire's warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
Oh sooo good!!!
Toumas himself say that this is the emotional song he ever wrote. In his childness, he becomes the Poet and no one understand what he do, but he goes his way.
A beautiful reaction, you might be ready for The Poet And The Pendulum although your remarks about talking to people might lead you to How's The Heart off the latest NW album. Either the album version or the superb acoustic version by Floor and Troy.
Thank you. It's on my list, I can't wait. Acoustic version sounds awesome.
The Swan(Floor) takes you to Valhalla!
Floor é uma Deusa, quando ela abre os dois braços, lembro imediatamente do Cristo Redentor , no Rio de Janeiro, abençoando a todos, o que ela também o faz com sua platéia e seguidores. Um espetáculo de pessoa.
The boy reciting the poem, his name is Sam Hardwick. He. was eleven at the time. Not an actor or singer just a boy that I believe Taumas (forgive me if I spelled his name wrong) has known for some time. I could be wrong but in my eyes it's about a boy who is misunderstood and wishes things were like it was. All in all my freaky darling it is a beautiful song🌹🥀
You remind me of an Egyptian Queen in this reaction, very cool look indeed. Fun to experience this music with you.
I like that ;) Thank you.
apart from everything from this songs xD what gets me most I think is Empuu's solo cause he so often has his jokster face or just like fun and all, but you really can see the emotion of this song in his face
Just Love this song - do emo…grest reaction btw. Greetings from Denmark…
On to Deep Silent Complete
Have a great weekend Jacq with 🦄 and 🍀
and now, try from the same live "devil and the deep dark ocean". floorgasm right ahead !
Seconded.
You should really hear the Tarja version of this as well (if not for us, then for yourself :)). It is just as beautiful, but the vibe is different, darker and, dare I say... more Gothic? Very fitting for the song and its subject matter, and that was the original version, you know?.. This was arranged a bit differently for the 2018 tour.
Floor sung this so beautifully from the low notes to the high ones,and together with jacqueline's reaction this one made me tear up.
Off topic: jacqueline do you have dutch roots/ herritage?
Hi Jacqueline! Nice to see you again! I like this song, also "Slaying the dreamer" from the same show! But i like the whole conzert in Buenos Aires '18! Maybe you will make an reaction from another band so between your NW reactions, from EPICA the song "Unchean Utopia" maybe, the version from the "Omega Alive" conzert or the official live video from Brussel/Belgium in 2015 what i also really like! Simone is on fire there, i love the first minute from that song! And i would wish you could do an reaction of the Tristania song "My Lost Lenore"! The version with subtitles posted from My Agony - they make an very nice video for this song with pictures in the way of Lois Royo or Fictoria Frances pictures! There is no really good live performance video, if you're a fan ok but for first time hearing you should do the album or the My Agony version. Wish you a nice weekend! 🖤 Bye! 🖤
Thank you Werner!!! I will check them out. Have a great weekend!!!
🇬🇧 Norfolk division reporting for duty let’s do this 💕
This may be the only Nightwish song I actually prefer Tarja's vocals on. She brings an ethereal quality that just defines the song for me.
