There are so many. Dead Boy's Poem, Ever Dream, Dark Chest of Wonders and try all of them from this Wacken (Vacken) 2013 concert as the sound quality is superb.
@@ReactADHD Oh it's worth it alright.... but you might be better off taking in a few more songs before the big two - The Greatest Show on Earth and The Poet and the Pendulum. I would suggest you get to know the band a bit better as both have stories to tell within and outside of the music. Or just dive right in and have your flabber ghasted as it's never been ghasted before.
@@ReactADHD I would actually recommend af few others before The Greatest Show on Earth. Oh, and please do the live versions. They're ALWAYS good :) Anyway. 'Story time' (from Wacken 2013), High Hopes, Sleeping Sun, Dark Chest of Wonders and Last Ride of the Day (Wacken), but honestly, there're so many good songs you're spoiled for choice. Edit: I forgot. 'I want my tears back' Live In Buenos Aires 2019
I'm glad that you decided to continue exploring this true musical universe, composed and performed by Nightwish for more than a quarter of a century of activity. You have a new subscriber here, of course. Greetings from Romania! PS: YES, you had your first FLOORGASM…
Floor has the most beautiful, powerful and emotion evoking voice in this universe ✨ Enjoy your Nightwish journey of discovery, they are something else.
Btw, last year Floor opened with a solo concert in Amsterdam for Metallica and thrilled the fans and this successful band. Welcome to the Nightwish family. Best regards; Kelsea - NWA Germany
I would never say "this is the wrong singer", I love Queen Floor and she's my favourite but Tarja and Annette were important part of the band, Tuomas knew always how to get the best of every singer and that has to be the key to keep the band up for so long, for me they are the GOATs and happy to listen to their music every time I can, there is a long journey ahead, keep rocking and stay safe....
@@ReactADHDyou can kind of ignore all comments about wrong singer ect. 😊 It is completely opinion. Make up your own mind. When I was young (1998) I hated Tarjas voice, sounded so dark and hollow to me. But now I am older, I do see that a lot of old songs are a better fit for her, then for Floor. Both versions sound like different songs, and what also is fine. Doubles the discography 😅(not mentioning Anette as I don't have any favorites with her voice 🙈) Floor is just an stage beast and she is so freaking captivated. First time I saw her live I felt like a 15 Yr old school girl. 😂❤ seen all singers live, but floor is the only one that really made me fall in love with the band. (yes also adhd here) have fun!!!
She was not a full member here. She had been with Nightwish as a fill-in for about ten months here. She, together with Troy, who´s not in this song, became full members shortly after this show.
@@ReactADHDyou are nearly right. Everyone knew that Floor would be a full time member by this stage, but there were still a couple of legalities that needed to be tied up with Floor's previous band before it could be formally announced.
You never forget your first Floorgasm. 😜 Tuomas (keyboards, founder, composer) as a big fan of Zimmer was once invited to go backstage and meet him. He didn't go. The interviewer asked him why and he replied, "Never meet your heroes". 😄🤘
I always enjoy .. seeing people for the 1 time hearing and reacting to the best female vocalist of the last decades ..the Ducth Floor Jansen ..and YES ..she is AMAZING
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power of her vocals. We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard. ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!! The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready! Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
What a fantastic tribute to Floor! Her talent truly knows no bounds, and it’s amazing how she captivates us all while still fulfilling her Valkyrie duties, even from Midgard!
Whatever guard you have up, when Floor's voice comes in she cut's thru it like a fresh sharpened butcher knife and get's you right into your soul and while your bleeding out you feel satisfied. When Floor goes into her emotional mode you can sleep in the finnish winter outside in the woods and still be warmed by her voice and feel comfortable. Much Love from Germany to you and your passionate reactions!
Wow, what a beautifully poetic way to describe Floor's voice! It truly does have a magical quality that resonates deeply. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
@@ReactADHD Ok, as I see your passionate reaction to that banger from the past I am giving you another recommendation from the latest album which just came out in September: Yesterwynde: This album is like an old concept album by Pink Floyd, you might take the time to listen to it from the first song all thru to the last one. After about 50 times now it grew on me up to the 5 best albums I own - and I am 64 now and have about 8000 records. The last song -Lanternlight- is my personal song of the year 2024 by far. It is very, VERY different but exactly that is the reason. For me Nightwish has evolved to one of those rare bands, that create art without any consideration to what anybody expected or to say it the short way: Nightwish does Nightwish things. Greetings from Germany
Tuomas (on keyboard), the composer and lyricist of most of NW music, is a great fan of soundtracks and especially of Hans Zimmer (also of Disney). You can hear this in many of their songs. By the way, Floor Jansen has studied four years at Rock Academy Tilburg plus one year classical music and one year music theatre. So she is classically trained but only for one year. But even before starting any music studies she had been able to reach high notes easily. She is highly talented and brought this to perfection with her studies.
There is no wrong singer to react to when you love Nightwish. People have preference for each of them, I can celebrate the beauty and uniqueness each brings. I have followed and loved their music since 2000 and on different tracks I love the differences each brings. Please never let anyone tell you how to feel about a singer. Is it Floor or is it Tarja.....nope it's Nightwish
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’. Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). 'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: ‘Misery’s no Crime’, ‘Wild card’ and ‘Disdain’. Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ‘Please learn the setlist in 48 hours’ Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see. Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on UA-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa’ and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered UA-cam in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish. Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of these and other presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turns 8 years next march) and Lucy (1 year this october),a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Wow, Floor's story is like a rock opera itself-complete with dramatic twists, turns, and a dash of burnout! Who knew being a Valkyrie could be so intense?
Floor was classically trained but (in her own words) "not to a great extent". She did the Rock academy in Tilburg, the Netherlands. But she indicated that that was not the main part of her training. She learned a lot from a teacher from the Conservatorium Tilburg who taught musical theatre (mr. Hoepelman). I never heard if it was a multi year class of multi year private lessons. So I don't know. Whatever, she said in an interview that she learned most from this man, not only singing, but also stage presence. Remember, all the while she already had an (inter-)national career in the band After Forever.
Thank you for sharing your insights! It's amazing how much influence a great teacher can have on an artist's journey. Floor's story is truly inspiring!
She did one year of opera and two years of musical theater with the teacher from the Conservatorium. I believe they were one on one lesson/studies not a formal course.
Funny you should mention Metallica because, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned this fun fact yet: Tuomas, the keyboardist and composer, was inspired to go into metal when he attended a Metallica and Guns 'n Roses concert as foreign exchange student in America! Fans of Metallica can pick up on the influence in Nightwish's music, and he actually pays tribute to Metallica specifically in a section of their song "The Greatest Show on Earth" during the portion that represents music throughout history. As others have mentioned as well, Hans Zimmer is one of Tuomas' biggest inspirations and favorite musicians. There's really no such thing as "wrong" with Nightwish, but there are preferences, and while both the first and second singer are both very good and have their strengths, as a fan from the early days, I have to say that I vastly prefer Floor. There are singers who can do each of the individual things she does a little better, but you would be hard pressed to find another singer with the sheer range and versatility of capabilities she has at such a high level, including her incredibly commanding stage presence. I personally feel that Floor takes Nightwish to a higher level. It's why I now prefer the live recorded versions of Floor singing their older songs. In fact, she's actually tweaked some of them to add her own flair. The belting final notes on Ghost Love Score were here own addition and truly make the song! Anways, welcome to the Nightwish Army! We're always happy to see new fans discover this incredible band! It's the closest we can get to experiencing them for the first time again.
I really appreciate your thoughtful comment! It's always great to connect with fellow fans who share the same passion for Nightwish and recognize Floor's incredible talent. Welcome aboard!
Haha i came to say the same thing. I'll add that that first concert was at Kaufman stadium in Kansas City, Missouri and the card also included Queensryche and Bodycount.
Funny you compared Floor with Freddy Mercury. Floor's first band 'After Forever' did a cover of 'Who wants to live forever' by Queen. 'Paashaas' made a 'mashup' of both recordings, so it seems they are doing a duet together.
I think that was a different show. She had already been with them for a while by this point. But yes, when she first agreed to fill in, she had 48 hours to learn the setlist.

What a beautiful song. ❤ And Floor‘s voice is really angelic and so powerful. 🥰 I can’t think of many who could even sing this with the same amount of control. (Except for Dimash obviously and maybe some opera singers). 😊
Floor is Awesome and the band is great. Her stage presence is amazing. There's a trio band from Mexico that does 3 versions of Enter Sandman. The original and their official video then their live version fron 22 and 24. They are called The Warning and they are sisters.
Fun fact, James Hedfield is a fan, and was on the side of the stage when Floor/Nightwish and Metallica were playing the same European festival in 2023(?) . When Metallica had problems with the opening act for their Amsterdam Stadium show in 2023, they called on Floor, 1 week before the show. Floor did the gig with her solo band while heavilly pregnant. She did some Nightwish, Revamp, After Forever songs, her solo music, and even Phantom of the opera with Henk Porte in a Tux. Not what the crowd expected but Floor saved the day. There are some fan videos on YT from the show if curious.
You’ll get Floor and Tarja fanboys. Both singers are great, and they are friends in real life… so just enjoy all the good music. Like Ren, Floor will surprise you every time. 😂
This was Floor`s first big concert with the band, if you think she nail this performance check out the concert at Tampere 2015 and all the others as they preform this song at each venue. This is my number one song of theirs and my list is very long lol. I must admit when Nightwish parted ways with Anette Olzen I was a little upset because I really liked her vocals. But Floor, WOW !! She is the greatest female vocalist alive !! She can sing anything that Tuomas write`s. She does Metal, Opera, Pop and actually sang from a phone book lol. She has been doing alot of her own shows while Nightwish is on a tour hiatus now. As for Metallica they are friends with the band and James asked her to fill in for Five Finger Death Punch and she was pregnant with her second child by the way.
thanks, great response, both in appreciation of the artist, as well as your moment of saying/reacting something yourself. As a fan of Ren , and Nightwish , I enjoy seeing your admiration in both. And in my opinion, both Thuomas and Ren have many artistic similarities. Especially in storytelling.
Hello from Nightwish Army Sydney Australia. Subscribed for your Nightwish journey. This music grabs at your heart. Looks like you might be the tears subset of fans, the other is goosebumps known as Floorgasms.
Hello I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have 2 daughters (Freja & Lucy) Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 3 octaves (C3 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish. Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she cool singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016. From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020. Greetings from the .
It is quite easy. We love Floor for thousands of reasons, as well NW and especially Tuomas. Freddy and Floor - two of the ery best vocalists. A Fan did a Video Floor + Freddy. Who want to live forever?
@@ReactADHD And then we will finish you off with Aryeon's "Everybody Dies" - then bring you back to life with "The Valley of the Queens" Buckle in brother - you are in for one hell of a ride!
Funny that you mentioned Freddy and Metallica since Nightwish has many connections with both, but I'm sure people in the comments covered that. Floor is fantastic in many genres, you just pick the one you like and there are links.
Great reaction buddy. Open and honest. Go for it and dive in deeper in the NW rabbit hole and in Floor doing solo stuff.Rock on from the Netherlands and sure I subscribed to the channel. 🤘
Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. 🇦🇺 🤘 Both Hans Zimmer and Metallica are influences of Tuomas Holopainen - the keyboard player - who composed this epic track! edit: that purple guitar is an ESP EV-1 - named for the guitarist here! Emppu Vuorinen!
Hi welcome to Nightwish a wonderful diverse band always best live, Gabriel will give you a list of some of their great performances, greetings from the Uk 🇬🇧 By the way they have a UK member not on this track, Troy Donnekley multi instrumentalist, you will meet him on other songs.
Couples years ago Floor and her own band ( Not Nightwish) opened for Metallica in Holland ,The other band had to pull out. Greetings from deepest darkest Norfolk UK,,😎
Greetings from Finland. Nobody should say you listen to wrong song, when you reack to Phantom of the opera! The absolutly best version of that song is whit Tarja and Marko. ❤ Floor is resent singer and a good one, but all Nightwish's singer's are truly professional singer's, differet to aech other but all good. And there is no bad song from Nightwish. 😅 Have a wonderfull journey in to the world of symphonic metal. ❣️
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Nightwish has such a rich history with amazing talent. Tarja and Marko’s version of "Phantom of the Opera" is indeed iconic!
Recent if you call 12 yrs recent lol. Yes both Tarja and Annette had their era's 7yrs and 6yrs respectively and are good at their time. But in my opinion, which is only mine Floor is preferable. I like maybe 2 or 3 songs each with each of the former, but prob anything with Floor .
Great reaction ❤. I loved to see how you physically reacted to this amazing song and enjoyed your commentary too. I subscribed to hopefully see some more Nightwish reactions from you. My personal favourite of the Nighwish videos are Song of Myself from Wacken 2013, and the Greatest Show On Earth from Wembley Arena (I think that the sound and screenshow quality is better there, but many also prefer the Tampere version). But after seeing this one, I think that what ever song you'll choose it's going to be one more great Nightwish reaction for me to watch 😁. General Gabriel's list is a good source for the best quality videos available on UA-cam but as he always says, feel free to jump around the list and choose your own path, all reactions are welcomed ❤.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed the reaction, and I can't wait to dive into more Nightwish songs. Your recommendations are noted! Storytime coming very very soon

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the concert! Nightwish truly delivered an unforgettable performance at Wacken Open Air 2013. Those songs are definitely epic choices for future reactions!
The version of _Phantom_ you reacted to wasn't wrong - in fact it's my favourite. (It makes no sense to say 'best', because the Floor/Henk ones are great too, it comes down to taste.) This is my favourite video of _GLS,_ though! I see you've already reacted to more Nightwish - enjoy the journey!
Another soul snatched by the Valkyrie Goddess There's no" wrong" singer , all 3 are very important to Nightwish . Tarja the original singer was more of a classical singer Anette more poppy and Floor is EVERYTHING .
Te emocionante!! Que lindo!! Escucha the siren con Tarja..es epico !! Saludos Cynthia de Argentina. Me suscribí, espero escucharte reaccionando a todo jaja❤ ahora Tarja y Marko hacen horas juntos..😊 saludos
¡Muchas gracias por suscribirte, Cynthia! Me alegra saber que estás disfrutando de mis reacciones. Estoy ansioso por compartir más música increíble contigo.
Tarja and Annette seem to be appreciated for their efforts and importance to the band's success, yet many appreciate the mastery Floor has of her instrument. It should also be noted that Tarja and Annette were asked to depart, whereas Toumas has said that if Floor were to depart, it would be the end of Nightwish. I'll leave it to the reader to sus out the importance of the first two singers in terms of their impact to the band. There are only two members to the band left and my feeling about that is that losing their drummer and bassist had as much impact on the personality of the band as much as Floor had/has on Nightwish. While it feels like a plug and play band, this concert imo was the high point of their journey. This concert - lighting in a bottle.
Nightwish fan here since years and years ago. But also open minded for something special. So please react to "DIMASH KUDAIBERGEN" singing OGNI PIETRA aka known as OLYMPICO from the Arnau Concert on his own channel. This guy has an 7 octave range and he is trained since the age of 5 years old. He's from Kazakhstan, his whole family is involved in music. Never heard a voice like this and I hope you will enjoy it. All the best from Germany 🇩🇪 Petra
Any reaction to Nightwish regardless of what song or what singer is ever wrong. Yes, I am a huge fan of Floors, but without Tarja and Annette, there would be no Nightwish. All 3 singers brought something to the table.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It’s great to see fellow fans appreciating the diverse contributions of all three singers. They truly have created something special together!
Within Temptation is Dutch, like Floor, like Epica! If you want to know why Floor decided to climb on stage, watch The Gathering with Anneke van Giersbergen on Pinkpop (biggest Dutch festival) in 1996 "Strange Machines" (about Mozart); ua-cam.com/video/1HUMwinV2AQ/v-deo.htmlsi=qsKH86Y7Ehom_hap
It is looking unlikely that Nightwish will tour again. They are not touring their current album, and Floor now has two small children which would make touring tough. Also, Tuomas, who writes the music, seems to be taking a new direction into grand orchestral music in the style of Hans Zimmer. The new album is nominally Nightwish, but truth to tell, they don't really feature on it in any meanigful way. But as you will find out, there is a huge collection of performances out there. I would recommend anything from this show at Wacken, also Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires and their home concert in Tampere, Finland.
Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France , très bonne réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mon ami pour la seconde fois vous venez de faire connaissance du métal symphonique et de nos deux reines Tarja et Floor, mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Continuez sur le festival du Wacken Open Air 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe et sont à écouter absolument. Vous venez d'écouter la 13ème chanson du set, ensuite faites le Ever Dream qui commence comme une douce ballade voix piano et sur un signe de Marko ( le bassiste ) continue d'accélérer pour finir comme un train à grande vitesse et en même temps de faire la connaissance de la voix de Marko, ou écoutez une petite histoire, un bon rock avec un refrain qui reste longtemps en tête avec Storytime ou alors du plus lourd avec Ghost River pour entendre le mélange magnifique des voix de Floor avec Marko ( merveilleuse harmonie ) ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide ..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu, ou être déjà passé ( Un grand MERCI à Gabriel d'avoir repris le flambeau de notre regrettée Anne ) cliquez sur son nom et allez sur communauté, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec le meilleur audio mais ce n'est pas une obligation, juste un sage conseil pour entendre une petite partie du meilleur du groupe. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir, plus de NIGHTWISH s'il vous plait et bienvenu à vous...... Bonne écoute et à bientôt, et un nouvel abonné ici.......Paix et amour sur vous mon ami .......
Merci beaucoup pour ce message passionné ! Nightwish a effectivement un univers musical incroyable, et je suis ravi de partager cette aventure avec vous. Je vais ajouter vos suggestions à ma liste d'écoutes !
❤❤❤ Always so great! Perhaps "Storytime" next from the same concert. 😊 Our Queen Valkyrie Goddess of Metal. She has a youtube channel as well with solo stuff from her solo album, and awesome covers from lockdown to keep her voice in shape that you could react to as well. They finished a world tour last year and will not tour the newest album that came out. That had beed decided already as previously they toured too much and it put a lot of strain on the band. Floor toured right up to the 2nd to last show pregnant and collapsed in the end so it's good she had time to recover and have baby before recording the new album. We are listening to the new one & patiently waiting for the next one; expect they will tour it. 😊
Besides Nightwsh and Within Temptationn theres Epica whose Dutch like Floor and WT. Epica is heavier then NW and WT. They bring in elements of death metal. If you want to go nuclear i sujject Consign to Oblivion live at the Zenith.. They just realsed a song a few weeks ago for Europes 2nd biggest amusemt park and the attraction Danse Macabre.. Its more on the musical theater side and its fantaatic. Its called the Ghost in Me and theres already a live video along with the OMV... Tomorrow they release the 1st song from there 9th Studio Album and the song is called Arcana... We all are awaiting that.
I really appreciate your detailed comment! It’s clear you’re passionate about Epica and their music, and I’m excited to hear the new album too. Thanks for keeping us updated!
Just wanted to drop a hello from a new subscriber in Canada. I've watched a few of your videos, and have now subscribed. I'm curious to see how we'll compare the same songs, as I'm a 48 year old bloke who has been told in just this past year, by my family doctor, "I think you've got ADHD. Like not newly, just completely missed while you were a kid" (growing up in the 70's/80's...also an autistic, undiagnosed until I was 33!) She has tried to prescribe me the ADHD meds, but I'm still resisting. I don't think it needs chemical treatment, and I've heard far too many horror stories about those meds... May I humbly suggest that you check out the singer/musician/songwriter/everything! Aurora? A first suggestion would be 'It happened quiet', specifically the 'Live at The Current' video. Cheers mate!
Hey there! So, you’ve got ADHD and you’re resisting meds? Sounds like you’re already mastering the art of “focused distraction”! I for one went against the flow and after taking one pill decided it wasnt for me and worked on other ways to calm the ADHD. Let’s see if my song comparisons can keep you entertained!
@@ReactADHD like we say here in Canada, moose = meese like goose = geese (not really, but there is lots of such jokes, like an episode of 'Letterkenny' where it's clearly 'gooses' lol
You should even look at their song Storytime (Peter Pan, the text) and the song/show The Greatest show on earth, it's about the birth of the earth, its evolution and goes in several chapters. It's amazing..... 👇👇👇 NIGHTWISH - The Greatest Show on Earth (with Richard Dawkins) (OFFICIAL LIVE) It's based on The book 👇👇👇 The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution is a 2009 book by British biologist Richard Dawkins, which was released on 3 September 2009 in the UK and on 22 September 2009 in the US. It sets out the evidence for biological evolution, and is Dawkins's 10th book, following his best-selling critique of religion The God Delusion (2006) and The Ancestor's Tale (2004), which traces human ancestry back to the dawn of life. Then you should look at this, it's really amazing, Floor's high note in the end is for real (a bit lower D6, but live with a microphonein the hand), the original one E6 on Broadway is prerecorded and a lay over. Floor is just amazing. Her variations and calmness of the voice in the build-up to the high note are remarkable. Look and listen to this amazing duet 👇👇 Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019 Nightwish have had three lead singers and their all schooled sopranos.
As a total fan of Nightwish with Floor, I still have to say that Tarja Turunen was the first singer who performed on the first five albums and is to be appreciated. However I prefer virtually every song when it's sung by Floor. At this concert after only 10 months with the band she takes every song to another level especially those by the second singer, Anette Olzon, 2007-2012) who was a pop singer and struggled to sing any Tarja songs and some of her own live.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's amazing how each singer has contributed to Nightwish's legacy in their own way. Your appreciation for both Tarja and Floor is truly inspiring!
There is never a wrong version of a song with Nightwish. The NW-army is large. And as with any large crowd, some individuals forget their manners. I can already hear some keyboard clicking "You stopped too much" or "interrupted the queen". Let's call those comments a confirmation of your success. It means you got a lot of views. Actually Nightwish has created not one but TWO songs about online behavior. Shame some fans aparently don't get the memo even when watching a song a thousand times.
Greetings and Love from Köln/Cologne, Germany. Since no one mentioned your audio quality i ask myself if there's something wrong with my audio.? It sounds quite good when you are talking, but as soon as press 'Play' The music seems to come and go. Back and forth. Like near and than kinda far away, i hope you get what i mean. Sorry, my little school English is quite bad, rosty😊. Beside that, you're cool, fresh, intressting and filled with energy. But important is for me, you're natural, true, real, you know. Lets wait and see, it was my first time here on your channel and i'm excited what's still to come. You mentioned Iron Maiden, so thats already enough for me to know, buddy. I'm a MaidenManiac since 1985 as i heard TNOTB for the first time. Damn, that was bout 40 years ago. R.I.P. P. DiAnno. Sorry, Paul, but i never liked you, but it is what is it. At the same time i found also the beholder of my lifelinie, Gary Moore. Both are the reason i'm still here today and being a dry alcoholic for nearly 15 years. So, Hail Gary & UP THE IRONS...Have a peaceful day, buddy. Stay safe, und Tschüss
Thank you so much for your warm greetings and constructive comment! I'm glad you enjoyed your first visit to my channel, and I truly appreciate your support as I continue to improve. No issues with the audio on this end
What track is next on the Nightwish journey?
There are so many. Dead Boy's Poem, Ever Dream, Dark Chest of Wonders and try all of them from this Wacken (Vacken) 2013 concert as the sound quality is superb.
@@Spectre67Productions Ive been told the greatest show on earth? worth it?
@@ReactADHD Oh it's worth it alright.... but you might be better off taking in a few more songs before the big two - The Greatest Show on Earth and The Poet and the Pendulum. I would suggest you get to know the band a bit better as both have stories to tell within and outside of the music. Or just dive right in and have your flabber ghasted as it's never been ghasted before.
@@ReactADHD I would actually recommend af few others before The Greatest Show on Earth. Oh, and please do the live versions. They're ALWAYS good :)
Anyway. 'Story time' (from Wacken 2013), High Hopes, Sleeping Sun, Dark Chest of Wonders and Last Ride of the Day (Wacken), but honestly, there're so many good songs you're spoiled for choice.
Edit: I forgot. 'I want my tears back' Live In Buenos Aires 2019
Follow the the list of General Gabriel. Or even you can't go wrong with all their live concerts
I'm glad that you decided to continue exploring this true musical universe, composed and performed by Nightwish for more than a quarter of a century of activity. You have a new subscriber here, of course.
Greetings from Romania!
PS: YES, you had your first FLOORGASM…
Ce Faci? Thats so awesome! Glad to have you. I am definitely going to go deep here into Nightwish! Epic band
@@martinklaus2203 ❤
Thank you Gabriel
GENERAL GABE!!!!
Floor has the most beautiful, powerful and emotion evoking voice in this universe ✨ Enjoy your Nightwish journey of discovery, they are something else.
Couldnt agree more! Yes, I am excited to hear so much more!
I'd been hearing about this singer named Floor forever but just figured it was some other pop princess I should have listened
Btw, last year Floor opened with a solo concert in Amsterdam for Metallica and thrilled the fans and this successful band.
Welcome to the Nightwish family. Best regards; Kelsea - NWA Germany
I heard that! thanks for watching!
It was not the wrong singer - it was the first singer. All singers are very good…. Thanks for continuing this fantastic journey… 👍‼️🏆
Thanks for the support 🍿
Floor Jansen the Dutch goddess of metal ❤❤😊
Absolutely! Floor Jansen truly embodies the power and artistry of metal music. Her talent is unmatched!
I would never say "this is the wrong singer", I love Queen Floor and she's my favourite but Tarja and Annette were important part of the band, Tuomas knew always how to get the best of every singer and that has to be the key to keep the band up for so long, for me they are the GOATs and happy to listen to their music every time I can, there is a long journey ahead, keep rocking and stay safe....
I totally agree! It’s like a musical buffet-everyone brings something tasty to the table, and I’m here for the whole feast!
As you say brother, there is no "wrong" singer with Nightwish.
@@ReactADHDyou can kind of ignore all comments about wrong singer ect. 😊 It is completely opinion. Make up your own mind. When I was young (1998) I hated Tarjas voice, sounded so dark and hollow to me. But now I am older, I do see that a lot of old songs are a better fit for her, then for Floor. Both versions sound like different songs, and what also is fine. Doubles the discography 😅(not mentioning Anette as I don't have any favorites with her voice 🙈) Floor is just an stage beast and she is so freaking captivated. First time I saw her live I felt like a 15 Yr old school girl. 😂❤ seen all singers live, but floor is the only one that really made me fall in love with the band. (yes also adhd here) have fun!!!
Tarja 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No wrong singer in Nightwish! Each is special!🎸🤘
Been a Nightwish follower since the late 90s. Great reaction!!!!!!
The fact that she is over 6 feet tall doesn’t hurt either. She is a goddess!🎸🤘
Please be upstanding for the Queen. Floor Jansen - just the best there is, no contest.
Rise of the Valkryie!
@@ReactADHD Watch angry Floor before Nightwish; ua-cam.com/video/iNSf64M9uA0/v-deo.html
Welcome. All 3 singers are outstanding in different ways and delivered masterpieces. Floor can do it all opera to growl.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I love how each artist showcases their incredible talents, and Floor is definitely a standout.
I am so happy you are going to be looking at Nightwish. They are amazing.
They are! Unreal!
She was not a full member here. She had been with Nightwish as a fill-in for about ten months here. She, together with Troy, who´s not in this song, became full members shortly after this show.
Thanks for the lesson! This Nightwish army is strong!!
@@ReactADHDyou are nearly right. Everyone knew that Floor would be a full time member by this stage, but there were still a couple of legalities that needed to be tied up with Floor's previous band before it could be formally announced.
Actually both her and Troy signed the papers in June, but it was first made public in October.
@@kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038 awesome!
This. Basically, it wasn't public yet.
You never forget your first Floorgasm. 😜 Tuomas (keyboards, founder, composer) as a big fan of Zimmer was once invited to go backstage and meet him. He didn't go. The interviewer asked him why and he replied, "Never meet your heroes". 😄🤘
HAHAHA legend!
Nightwish Army Germany calling. Welcome to the World of Nightwish and Floor 😊
im there!! cant wait to explore more!
You know if you are sad or having a bad day listening to Floor and the boys is always the best medicine😃
I always enjoy .. seeing people for the 1 time hearing and reacting to the best female vocalist of the last decades ..the Ducth Floor Jansen ..and YES ..she is AMAZING
beyond amazing!!
Happy you met our Dutch Valkyrie Metal Goddess Floor and Nightwish.
Please do more, it’s all this good!
More to come! Love what i am hearing
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
of her vocals.
We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.
ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready!
Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
What a fantastic tribute to Floor! Her talent truly knows no bounds, and it’s amazing how she captivates us all while still fulfilling her Valkyrie duties, even from Midgard!
Whatever guard you have up, when Floor's voice comes in she cut's thru it like a fresh sharpened butcher knife and get's you right into your soul and while your bleeding out you feel satisfied.
When Floor goes into her emotional mode you can sleep in the finnish winter outside in the woods and still be warmed by her voice and feel comfortable.
Much Love from Germany to you and your passionate reactions!
Wow, what a beautifully poetic way to describe Floor's voice! It truly does have a magical quality that resonates deeply. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
@@ReactADHD Ok, as I see your passionate reaction to that banger from the past I am giving you another recommendation from the latest album which just came out in September:
Yesterwynde:
This album is like an old concept album by Pink Floyd, you might take the time to listen to it from the first song all thru to the last one. After about 50 times now it grew on me up to the 5 best albums I own - and I am 64 now and have about 8000 records. The last song -Lanternlight- is my personal song of the year 2024 by far. It is very, VERY different but exactly that is the reason.
For me Nightwish has evolved to one of those rare bands, that create art without any consideration to what anybody expected or to say it the short way: Nightwish does Nightwish things.
Greetings from Germany
@@user-Rockmagix wow cool! I will add it to my list for sure!!
Tuomas (on keyboard), the composer and lyricist of most of NW music, is a great fan of soundtracks and especially of Hans Zimmer (also of Disney). You can hear this in many of their songs. By the way, Floor Jansen has studied four years at Rock Academy Tilburg plus one year classical music and one year music theatre. So she is classically trained but only for one year. But even before starting any music studies she had been able to reach high notes easily. She is highly talented and brought this to perfection with her studies.
absolutely incredible!
Hello ReactADHD. Welcome to our beloved Nightwish with our Valkyrie Goddess, Floor Jansen. Great reaction. Loved it.
Thank you!! 😁
There is no wrong singer to react to when you love Nightwish. People have preference for each of them, I can celebrate the beauty and uniqueness each brings. I have followed and loved their music since 2000 and on different tracks I love the differences each brings. Please never let anyone tell you how to feel about a singer. Is it Floor or is it Tarja.....nope it's Nightwish
Thank you for sharing your passion! It's always great to hear from fellow Nightwish fans who appreciate the beauty in every vocalist.
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’.
Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera).
'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: ‘Misery’s no Crime’, ‘Wild card’ and ‘Disdain’.
Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ‘Please learn the setlist in 48 hours’
Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see.
Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on UA-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa’ and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered UA-cam in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish.
Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of these and other presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turns 8 years next march) and Lucy (1 year this october),a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Wow, Floor's story is like a rock opera itself-complete with dramatic twists, turns, and a dash of burnout! Who knew being a Valkyrie could be so intense?
Floor was classically trained but (in her own words) "not to a great extent". She did the Rock academy in Tilburg, the Netherlands. But she indicated that that was not the main part of her training. She learned a lot from a teacher from the Conservatorium Tilburg who taught musical theatre (mr. Hoepelman). I never heard if it was a multi year class of multi year private lessons. So I don't know. Whatever, she said in an interview that she learned most from this man, not only singing, but also stage presence. Remember, all the while she already had an (inter-)national career in the band After Forever.
Thank you for sharing your insights! It's amazing how much influence a great teacher can have on an artist's journey. Floor's story is truly inspiring!
She did one year of opera and two years of musical theater with the teacher from the Conservatorium. I believe they were one on one lesson/studies not a formal course.
@@rnowak85 well she smashed this song!
Thanks for helping.me introduce Nightwish to my 6 year old granddaughter this morning, Ollie? You rock!
Lol that's awesome
UK Army popping in for a great reaction, there is no right or wrong singer
Thank you for stopping by! I really appreciate your support and the positive vibes!
The best live versions of Nightwish are done by Floor also involves the crowd🤘
She is the best front woman I think I have seen!
@@ReactADHD Yes my soul has already conquered the Valkyrie Queen Floor when she was still with After Forever. it seems she has yours now too💥🤘
The genius behind Nightwish, keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen aka Metal Mozart, is a big big fan of Hans Zimmer! (and Disney, And Sibelius and and)
And this song was performed near the end of an hour & a half show!!!
insane!
Funny you should mention Metallica because, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned this fun fact yet: Tuomas, the keyboardist and composer, was inspired to go into metal when he attended a Metallica and Guns 'n Roses concert as foreign exchange student in America! Fans of Metallica can pick up on the influence in Nightwish's music, and he actually pays tribute to Metallica specifically in a section of their song "The Greatest Show on Earth" during the portion that represents music throughout history.
As others have mentioned as well, Hans Zimmer is one of Tuomas' biggest inspirations and favorite musicians.
There's really no such thing as "wrong" with Nightwish, but there are preferences, and while both the first and second singer are both very good and have their strengths, as a fan from the early days, I have to say that I vastly prefer Floor. There are singers who can do each of the individual things she does a little better, but you would be hard pressed to find another singer with the sheer range and versatility of capabilities she has at such a high level, including her incredibly commanding stage presence. I personally feel that Floor takes Nightwish to a higher level. It's why I now prefer the live recorded versions of Floor singing their older songs. In fact, she's actually tweaked some of them to add her own flair. The belting final notes on Ghost Love Score were here own addition and truly make the song!
Anways, welcome to the Nightwish Army! We're always happy to see new fans discover this incredible band! It's the closest we can get to experiencing them for the first time again.
I really appreciate your thoughtful comment! It's always great to connect with fellow fans who share the same passion for Nightwish and recognize Floor's incredible talent. Welcome aboard!
Haha i came to say the same thing. I'll add that that first concert was at Kaufman stadium in Kansas City, Missouri and the card also included Queensryche and Bodycount.
Not a wrong singer, they both are amazing!
I agree!
Funny you compared Floor with Freddy Mercury. Floor's first band 'After Forever' did a cover of 'Who wants to live forever' by Queen. 'Paashaas' made a 'mashup' of both recordings, so it seems they are doing a duet together.
wow!
I've been told she learned the complete setlist for this gig in just 48 hours.
wow!
I think that was a different show. She had already been with them for a while by this point. But yes, when she first agreed to fill in, she had 48 hours to learn the setlist.

@@corinna007 insane!
Floor had to fly from Europe to the US, and join the band mid tour as they traveled by bus to their next gig in early Oct 2012
What a beautiful song. ❤
And Floor‘s voice is really angelic and so powerful. 🥰
I can’t think of many who could even sing this with the same amount of control. (Except for Dimash obviously and maybe some opera singers). 😊
I completely agree! Floor's voice truly is something special, and her control is just mesmerizing. It's always a joy to hear such talent!
Floor is Awesome and the band is great. Her stage presence is amazing. There's a trio band from Mexico that does 3 versions of Enter Sandman. The original and their official video then their live version fron 22 and 24. They are called The Warning and they are sisters.
I remember my first Floorgasm.
Nightwishalisciousness! 🤟🤪
Subscribed.
Ah, the first Floorgasm is a moment to cherish! Thanks for sharing your experience and subscribing!
She does have some classical education, but she is actually just a naturally gifted soprano.
AMAZING voice and presence
Fun fact, James Hedfield is a fan, and was on the side of the stage when Floor/Nightwish and Metallica were playing the same European festival in 2023(?) .
When Metallica had problems with the opening act for their Amsterdam Stadium show in 2023, they called on Floor, 1 week before the show. Floor did the gig with her solo band while heavilly pregnant. She did some Nightwish, Revamp, After Forever songs, her solo music, and even Phantom of the opera with Henk Porte in a Tux. Not what the crowd expected but Floor saved the day. There are some fan videos on YT from the show if curious.
Thank you for sharing that fun fact! It’s always awesome to hear more about the behind-the-scenes moments that make these concerts memorable! Legend
yeeees keep going
From full head voice (d6 maybe?) to f5 mixed belt to A flat mix belt in one vocal line....nutty, yes... ?
insane!
You’ll get Floor and Tarja fanboys. Both singers are great, and they are friends in real life… so just enjoy all the good music.
Like Ren, Floor will surprise you every time. 😂
Amazing!
Night wish at 153 am. Yes please!
Love this!
This was Floor`s first big concert with the band, if you think she nail this performance check out the concert at Tampere 2015 and all the others as they preform this song at each venue. This is my number one song of theirs and my list is very long lol. I must admit when Nightwish parted ways with Anette Olzen I was a little upset because I really liked her vocals. But Floor, WOW !! She is the greatest female vocalist alive !! She can sing anything that Tuomas write`s. She does Metal, Opera, Pop and actually sang from a phone book lol. She has been doing alot of her own shows while Nightwish is on a tour hiatus now. As for Metallica they are friends with the band and James asked her to fill in for Five Finger Death Punch and she was pregnant with her second child by the way.
She is so good!
thanks, great response, both in appreciation of the artist, as well as your moment of saying/reacting something yourself. As a fan of Ren , and Nightwish , I enjoy seeing your admiration in both. And in my opinion, both Thuomas and Ren have many artistic similarities. Especially in storytelling.
Thanks so much for your kind words! It’s always great to connect with fellow fans who appreciate the artistry of Ren and Nightwish.

Hello
I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here.
She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have 2 daughters (Freja & Lucy)
Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 3 octaves (C3 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish.
Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she cool singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020.

Common comparisons for Floor is that she is the female version of:
Freddie Mercury
Dio
Bruce Dickinson
agree with all 3 100%
Funny that you mentioned Freddy and Metallica since Nightwish has many connections with both, but I'm sure people in the comments covered that.
Floor is fantastic in many genres, you just pick the one you like and there are links.
amazing! Im so impressed by them!
Our Goddes collected another soul.
Great reaction buddy. Open and honest. Go for it and dive in deeper in the NW rabbit hole and in Floor doing solo stuff.Rock on from the Netherlands and sure I subscribed to the channel. 🤘
Thank you, have done I think 5 on UA-cam and reacted to Floor on Beste Zangers singing Shallow over on Patreon. She is awesome
Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. 🇦🇺 🤘 Both Hans Zimmer and Metallica are influences of Tuomas Holopainen - the keyboard player - who composed this epic track! edit: that purple guitar is an ESP EV-1 - named for the guitarist here! Emppu Vuorinen!

Nobody should say you listen to wrong song, when you reack to Phantom of the opera! The absolutly best version of that song is whit Tarja and Marko. ❤
Floor is resent singer and a good one, but all Nightwish's singer's are truly professional singer's, differet to aech other but all good. And there is no bad song from Nightwish. 😅
Have a wonderfull journey in to the world of symphonic metal. ❣️
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Nightwish has such a rich history with amazing talent. Tarja and Marko’s version of "Phantom of the Opera" is indeed iconic!
Except for Tuomas who sang in some earlier songs. Thank got he stopped that 😁
Recent if you call 12 yrs recent lol. Yes both Tarja and Annette had their era's 7yrs and 6yrs respectively and are good at their time. But in my opinion, which is only mine Floor is preferable. I like maybe 2 or 3 songs each with each of the former, but prob anything with Floor .
@@christianmohr1491 That wasn't so bad. 😁 But let Tuomas do what he does best. Wrightin the songs. ❤️

Symphonic Metal......its a thing! Floor is married to the drummer from Sabaton.
amen! Loving every second
Great reaction ❤. I loved to see how you physically reacted to this amazing song and enjoyed your commentary too. I subscribed to hopefully see some more Nightwish reactions from you. My personal favourite of the Nighwish videos are Song of Myself from Wacken 2013, and the Greatest Show On Earth from Wembley Arena (I think that the sound and screenshow quality is better there, but many also prefer the Tampere version).
But after seeing this one, I think that what ever song you'll choose it's going to be one more great Nightwish reaction for me to watch 😁. General Gabriel's list is a good source for the best quality videos available on UA-cam but as he always says, feel free to jump around the list and choose your own path, all reactions are welcomed ❤.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed the reaction, and I can't wait to dive into more Nightwish songs. Your recommendations are noted! Storytime coming very very soon

The version of _Phantom_ you reacted to wasn't wrong - in fact it's my favourite. (It makes no sense to say 'best', because the Floor/Henk ones are great too, it comes down to taste.) This is my favourite video of _GLS,_ though! I see you've already reacted to more Nightwish - enjoy the journey!
Thanks for the info! Appreciate you!
Another soul snatched by the Valkyrie Goddess
There's no" wrong" singer , all 3 are very important to Nightwish . Tarja the original singer was more of a classical singer Anette more poppy and Floor is EVERYTHING .
I concur - all three singers bring something diffferent to the band - why not just enjoy all three and appreciate all the good music they have made.
Well, I can say Floor is incredible!
Te emocionante!! Que lindo!! Escucha the siren con Tarja..es epico !! Saludos Cynthia de Argentina. Me suscribí, espero escucharte reaccionando a todo jaja❤ ahora Tarja y Marko hacen horas juntos..😊 saludos
¡Muchas gracias por suscribirte, Cynthia! Me alegra saber que estás disfrutando de mis reacciones. Estoy ansioso por compartir más música increíble contigo.
Tarja and Annette seem to be appreciated for their efforts and importance to the band's success, yet many appreciate the mastery Floor has of her instrument. It should also be noted that Tarja and Annette were asked to depart, whereas Toumas has said that if Floor were to depart, it would be the end of Nightwish. I'll leave it to the reader to sus out the importance of the first two singers in terms of their impact to the band. There are only two members to the band left and my feeling about that is that losing their drummer and bassist had as much impact on the personality of the band as much as Floor had/has on Nightwish. While it feels like a plug and play band, this concert imo was the high point of their journey. This concert - lighting in a bottle.
Can't wait to see more!
the first but certainly not the last
Agreed 💯
Nightwish fan here since years and years ago. But also open minded for something special. So please react to "DIMASH KUDAIBERGEN" singing OGNI PIETRA aka known as OLYMPICO from the Arnau Concert on his own channel. This guy has an 7 octave range and he is trained since the age of 5 years old. He's from Kazakhstan, his whole family is involved in music. Never heard a voice like this and I hope you will enjoy it. All the best from Germany 🇩🇪 Petra
7 days to the wolves at wembley is amazing!! 2015

Nightwish 🔥🔥🤘😍
EPIC!
Any reaction to Nightwish regardless of what song or what singer is ever wrong. Yes, I am a huge fan of Floors, but without Tarja and Annette, there would be no Nightwish. All 3 singers brought something to the table.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It’s great to see fellow fans appreciating the diverse contributions of all three singers. They truly have created something special together!
Within Temptation is Dutch, like Floor, like Epica! If you want to know why Floor decided to climb on stage, watch The Gathering with Anneke van Giersbergen on Pinkpop (biggest Dutch festival) in 1996 "Strange Machines" (about Mozart);

It is looking unlikely that Nightwish will tour again. They are not touring their current album, and Floor now has two small children which would make touring tough. Also, Tuomas, who writes the music, seems to be taking a new direction into grand orchestral music in the style of Hans Zimmer. The new album is nominally Nightwish, but truth to tell, they don't really feature on it in any meanigful way. But as you will find out, there is a huge collection of performances out there. I would recommend anything from this show at Wacken, also Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires and their home concert in Tampere, Finland.
Honestly, I am so new to Nightwish that I have a lot to learn but what an impression they are having on me! Cant wait til the next track!

Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France , très bonne réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mon ami pour la seconde fois vous venez de faire connaissance du métal symphonique et de nos deux reines Tarja et Floor, mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Continuez sur le festival du Wacken Open Air 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe et sont à écouter absolument. Vous venez d'écouter la 13ème chanson du set, ensuite faites le Ever Dream qui commence comme une douce ballade voix piano et sur un signe de Marko ( le bassiste ) continue d'accélérer pour finir comme un train à grande vitesse et en même temps de faire la connaissance de la voix de Marko, ou écoutez une petite histoire, un bon rock avec un refrain qui reste longtemps en tête avec Storytime ou alors du plus lourd avec Ghost River pour entendre le mélange magnifique des voix de Floor avec Marko ( merveilleuse harmonie ) ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide ..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu, ou être déjà passé ( Un grand MERCI à Gabriel d'avoir repris le flambeau de notre regrettée Anne ) cliquez sur son nom et allez sur communauté, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec le meilleur audio mais ce n'est pas une obligation, juste un sage conseil pour entendre une petite partie du meilleur du groupe. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir, plus de NIGHTWISH s'il vous plait et bienvenu à vous...... Bonne écoute et à bientôt, et un nouvel abonné ici.......Paix et amour sur vous mon ami .......
Merci beaucoup pour ce message passionné ! Nightwish a effectivement un univers musical incroyable, et je suis ravi de partager cette aventure avec vous. Je vais ajouter vos suggestions à ma liste d'écoutes !
@@ReactADHD Merci de votre gentille réponse, une petite erreur la voix de Marko vous l'avez déjà entendu dans le Fantôme de L'opéra........
❤❤❤ Always so great!
Perhaps "Storytime" next from the same concert. 😊
Our Queen Valkyrie Goddess of Metal.
She has a youtube channel as well with solo stuff from her solo album, and awesome covers from lockdown to keep her voice in shape that you could react to as well.
They finished a world tour last year and will not tour the newest album that came out.
That had beed decided already as previously they toured too much and it put a lot of strain on the band.
Floor toured right up to the 2nd to last show pregnant and collapsed in the end so it's good she had time to recover and have baby before recording the new album.
We are listening to the new one & patiently waiting for the next one; expect they will tour it. 😊
I really appreciate your enthusiasm and support! Floor's journey is truly incredible, and I can't wait to share more about her music and adventures!
🤘💎🔥
Besides Nightwsh and Within Temptationn theres Epica whose Dutch like Floor and WT. Epica is heavier then NW and WT. They bring in elements of death metal. If you want to go nuclear i sujject Consign to Oblivion live at the Zenith.. They just realsed a song a few weeks ago for Europes 2nd biggest amusemt park and the attraction Danse Macabre.. Its more on the musical theater side and its fantaatic. Its called the Ghost in Me and theres already a live video along with the OMV... Tomorrow they release the 1st song from there 9th Studio Album and the song is called Arcana... We all are awaiting that.
I really appreciate your detailed comment! It’s clear you’re passionate about Epica and their music, and I’m excited to hear the new album too. Thanks for keeping us updated!
Just wanted to drop a hello from a new subscriber in Canada. I've watched a few of your videos, and have now subscribed. I'm curious to see how we'll compare the same songs, as I'm a 48 year old bloke who has been told in just this past year, by my family doctor, "I think you've got ADHD. Like not newly, just completely missed while you were a kid" (growing up in the 70's/80's...also an autistic, undiagnosed until I was 33!) She has tried to prescribe me the ADHD meds, but I'm still resisting. I don't think it needs chemical treatment, and I've heard far too many horror stories about those meds...
May I humbly suggest that you check out the singer/musician/songwriter/everything! Aurora? A first suggestion would be 'It happened quiet', specifically the 'Live at The Current' video. Cheers mate!
Hey there! So, you’ve got ADHD and you’re resisting meds? Sounds like you’re already mastering the art of “focused distraction”! I for one went against the flow and after taking one pill decided it wasnt for me and worked on other ways to calm the ADHD. Let’s see if my song comparisons can keep you entertained!
As to looking ready for battle, Floor has been referred to as a Valkyrie Goddess by many other reacters (reactors? reacteese? reactopodes?)
@@falsfire I can see why! I would guess Reactors but do like Reacteese lol
@@ReactADHD like we say here in Canada, moose = meese like goose = geese (not really, but there is lots of such jokes, like an episode of 'Letterkenny' where it's clearly 'gooses' lol
If you are an Iron Maiden fan you will love Japanese all female metal band. Lovebites. Old school metal with modern feel.
I will have to check them out!
Made with London Orchestra, i think...
🤩👍💥💯🎼

You should even look at their song Storytime (Peter Pan, the text) and the song/show The Greatest show on earth, it's about the birth of the earth, its evolution and goes in several chapters.
It's amazing..... 👇👇👇
NIGHTWISH - The Greatest Show on Earth (with Richard Dawkins) (OFFICIAL LIVE)
It's based on The book 👇👇👇
The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution is a 2009 book by British biologist Richard Dawkins, which was released on 3 September 2009 in the UK and on 22 September 2009 in the US. It sets out the evidence for biological evolution, and is Dawkins's 10th book, following his best-selling critique of religion The God Delusion (2006) and The Ancestor's Tale (2004), which traces human ancestry back to the dawn of life.
Then you should look at this, it's really amazing, Floor's high note in the end is for real (a bit lower D6, but live with a microphonein the hand), the original one E6 on Broadway is prerecorded and a lay over. Floor is just amazing. Her variations and calmness of the voice in the build-up to the high note are remarkable.
Look and listen to this amazing duet 👇👇
Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019
Nightwish have had three lead singers and their all schooled sopranos.
Just uploaded it! Check it out
As a total fan of Nightwish with Floor, I still have to say that Tarja Turunen was the first singer who performed on the first five albums and is to be appreciated. However I prefer virtually every song when it's sung by Floor. At this concert after only 10 months with the band she takes every song to another level especially those by the second singer, Anette Olzon, 2007-2012) who was a pop singer and struggled to sing any Tarja songs and some of her own live.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's amazing how each singer has contributed to Nightwish's legacy in their own way. Your appreciation for both Tarja and Floor is truly inspiring!
@ReactADHD I appreciate what Tarja did for Nightwish but am not a fan of her singing style. Sorry. Greetings from the UK.
@@clivematthews5296 Thats fair!
Probably won't be playing live until at least 2026.......sadly.
Thats a shame, ill join the fan club or something to get the heads up when they do!
🥡feeding time
hahaha you guys are nuts
There is never a wrong version of a song with Nightwish. The NW-army is large. And as with any large crowd, some individuals forget their manners. I can already hear some keyboard clicking "You stopped too much" or "interrupted the queen". Let's call those comments a confirmation of your success. It means you got a lot of views. Actually Nightwish has created not one but TWO songs about online behavior. Shame some fans aparently don't get the memo even when watching a song a thousand times.
Haha, it’s like those fans are auditioning for the role of “Keyboard Warrior of the Year”! But hey, more views means more Nightwish love, right?
Greetings and Love from Köln/Cologne, Germany. Since no one mentioned your audio quality i ask myself if there's something wrong with my audio.? It sounds quite good when you are talking, but as soon as press 'Play' The music seems to come and
go. Back and forth. Like near and than kinda far away, i hope you get what i mean. Sorry, my little school English is quite bad, rosty😊. Beside that, you're cool, fresh, intressting and filled with energy. But important is for me, you're natural, true, real, you know. Lets wait and see, it was my first time here on your channel and i'm excited what's still to come. You mentioned Iron Maiden, so thats already enough for me to know, buddy. I'm a MaidenManiac since 1985 as i heard TNOTB for the first time. Damn, that was bout 40 years ago. R.I.P.
P. DiAnno. Sorry, Paul, but i never liked you, but it is what is it. At the same time i found also the beholder of my lifelinie, Gary Moore. Both are the reason i'm still here today and being a dry alcoholic for nearly 15 years. So, Hail Gary & UP THE IRONS...Have a peaceful day, buddy. Stay safe, und Tschüss
Thank you so much for your warm greetings and constructive comment! I'm glad you enjoyed your first visit to my channel, and I truly appreciate your support as I continue to improve. No issues with the audio on this end
