Yes you did Sleeping sun with Nightwish, but with Floor in 2016. Check out the Nightwish with Tarja live version of this song from the End of an Era show in 2005. At least on your own if you don't want to do a reaction video to a 3rd version of this song.
Amen, I bet Animal's gonna dig some spoons and an anvil put to a good use too. I hope the Souls do it some of these days: th-cam.com/video/e4Ao-iNPPUc/w-d-xo.html .
the whole episode is great, tarja is a lot of fun (they had a boat rowing contest and tarja won) and her and steve n seagulls are a suprisingly cool combination! you could check out the original version of sleeping sun, the one that was written for and came out during the solar eclipse. there's an official video (not the 2005 one but the one where tarja has short hair) it's so so beautiful!
A new take on an old Nightwish song, originally sung by Tarja. A song originally released a single in August 1999 to coincide with the solar eclipse that occurred in Europe at that time. It was later included on subsequent releases of Oceanborn. You watched Floor perform it with Nightwish. There is an official video from the original studio release with Tarja that you might want to check out.
I love how they brought the complete Romanian, Balkan Gypsy style of playing into this "Sleeping Sun" version. Great Eastern European flair with the instruments, and Tarja sings this style so beautifully. I grew up with hearing lot's of gypsy music through my parents. Such good stuff. Awesome reaction to an awesome song.. Thanks a buncharoo. 🙂❣😉
This is so nice version with the original vibe but tailored for the Seagulls .... Tarja naturally is the one to do this song if any for sure. They actually had a nice competition video too with the Seagulls...so funny one. That rowing boat front page. Check the original video and compare...then the End of an Era concert version too.
Tarja is amazing. You might like her new song "Eye Of The Storm" (would love to see your reaction), it's from Tarja's upcoming Best Of album out on 12/02/2022.
I am glad you saw this interesting version of the Nightwish song Sleeping Sun with it's original singer. The Nightwish versions with Tarja and Floor are amazing also. I hope you also watch the full Steve n Seagulls video episode with Tarja.
Might be worth remembering Tarja did not grow up in the big city. Heck she isn't even from the small town on the lake Kittee proper. She grew up in a small village outside the town. Very much a country girl from her youth. We have seen how beautiful she is in those amazing gowns. But don't most girls dream of playing dress up and wearing fabulous gowns, jewels etc. To be the Belle of the ball. But then it's time for the real world and getting comfy work clothes out and getting down to business. Even the business of making fun music. But that's what I think. But then I think water is wet so what do I know.
After Sleeping Sun listen also to Swanheart, an underestimated Nightwish pearl song of their earlier days. The female vocalist ? Of course Tarja Turunen.
And if you want a video clip with a message (timeous) you should react to Tarja's Innocense, the official video! And about Sleeping sun, the End of an Era version with Tarja, is the best of all, with Tarja dressed with the most beautiful dress ever showd in a metal show (haha). Greetings from Greece!
I think that the name of the instrument you guys were wondering about around 4:05 is Kantele. It is a old instrument used a lot during ye olde times in Finland. Here is a link for a song played with Kantele. th-cam.com/video/8MfqCOwgdU8/w-d-xo.html
Has become an all time favorite cover !!!!! No one compares well to TARJA !!! Been having fun watching the roll out of her new Best Of Album with new song Eye Of The Storm !!!! 💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
You did Sleeping Sun with Floor, but you should check out the song with Tarja at the End of An Era concert in Helsinki 2005. Sleeping Sun is their biggest hit ever, and while you are at it, don't forget Nightwish crews version of Sleeping Sun 🌄 Crewish.
If you want to hear some heavy metal with bluegrass check out the album fade to bluegrass by the Alabama band called iron horse It's all Metallica covers done in bluegrass style and it's very good
Fantastic reaction, thank you. now you just have to look up Battle Beast vocalist( Noora Louhimo - Finland ) and Steve n Seaguls do - Piece of my heart. th-cam.com/video/hZPixvpQYG0/w-d-xo.html
When you told that Steven's Seaguls started as an joke,that is not the case....They knew what is goal for band, begging from starting point. Anyway,there is band who started as an joke and that is "Leningrad Cowboys"....On interviews they told that band is so lousy that they pretend to be band from Russia and that's why from there comes also name of the band. They did road movie "Leningrad Cowboys Goes America"(1989), telling the story how lousy manager of the band have heard new music genre (rock'n roll) and so band travels to USA....And asks there critical questions: "Do you have rock'n roll? Can we buy it?" All gigs where also lousy,they did not got Stadium concert,only some small gigs from bars and they had difficulties to understand how to play rock'n roll....Until at some where at Mid-West,at random biker's bar they found the light! Clip from movie: th-cam.com/video/voZRW71N3Cs/w-d-xo.html After movie band got success and from joke they grow to massive show band, biggest gig was out door concert middle of Helsinki with around 80000 peoples where there listening when they played old rock classics. How about massive "American Woman" cover by big rock circus with world longest stage. th-cam.com/video/VVorW8Zm1wQ/w-d-xo.html Band have also own songs, here is "Buena Vodka Social Club" (Maybe worth to react?) th-cam.com/video/0bQM9XsvsNM/w-d-xo.html Have you ever heard that rock band can go to bankruptcy? The did that too,some time ago. Some how bankruptcy was natural end for this band....
Are you guys gonna do a reaction to Metallica's 'Enter Sandman' and/or 'Harvester of Sorrow'?. If you do check out their epic concert in Moskow 1991. There were only 1.6 million people there.. 🔥🔥
You have reacted to Sleeping Sun, it had Floor as a singer. Sleeping Sun is one of the biggest hits from Nightwish's early days, so it has a big meaning in the band's history. If you want to check out version with Tarja: th-cam.com/video/rXZcC9EEQso/w-d-xo.html Great honor to the boys for having Tarja as a guest. Tarja has been a citizen of the world for a long time and she doesn't spend much time in Finland, so a really special visit. They clearly had a lot of fun doing that. Next Steve'n'Seagulls, definetely Thunderstruck.
You did react to Sleeping Sun with Nightwish already but it was with Floor, not with Tarja. Personally I like this version with Tarja and would like to see more reactions to it: th-cam.com/video/_yMCSDbwaCo/w-d-xo.html but there are also a couple of good live ones.
What's not to like about a big guy with a bear skin hat playing an accordion! Then throw in the original singer of nightwish on vocals, what could be better?
Bluemetalgrass?? Metalbluefolkgrass??Everything works on this song except the accordion. A little discordant in that it does not fit with the other instruments or the lyrics of the song to me as it makes it a little too much like polka or Slavic folk. As always Tarja's vocals are soaring and melodious. This son was written specifically for the solar eclipse on 11 Aug 1999. Stay safe, God bless, keep rocking.
I like the band even though I don’t know them, it’s only my 2nd song as I am exploring them with you. But I am sorry to say that I never liked Tarja’s voice.
I’m not running the musicians down because I know they’re really good and Tara is a great singer, but unfortunately I think their spoiling the Nightwish song! Not for me, only saying 🏴
I think this is a poor copy of the real thing from Nightwish. Tarja were a lot better in her Nightwish versions - in my opinion - and Floor were incredible as this version below shows. The emotions and the storytelling does the song real justice - compared to the Steven Seagull / Tarja version But that just my opinion Nightwish 'Sleeping Sun' Tampere 2015 th-cam.com/video/rsotlzr9wNw/w-d-xo.html
I think you're completely missing the point when you start comparing this to the normal versions of Nightwish. They just had fun and gave the famous Steve'n'Seagulls flavor to the Nightwish classic.
Whole idea of SnS is to make fun versions of well known songs, and that is what they did in here. I really enjoy this version, but of course I will love original even more. And I loved this Seagull's Nest series, where they got the original singers as guests. Hope to see more of that.

Yes you did Sleeping sun with Nightwish, but with Floor in 2016.

So cool that Tarja agreed to do this.
These guys do a great rendition of Thunderstruck by AC/DC the banjo takes the lead it sounds so frigging cool
I concur.
Yes, I hope 2nd hand souls reacts to that too
PANTERA "Cemetery Gates" and Guns N' Roses "November Rain" are 2 great covers.
Amen, I bet Animal's gonna dig some spoons and an anvil put to a good use too. I hope the Souls do it some of these days: th-cam.com/video/e4Ao-iNPPUc/w-d-xo.html .
So cool to see you guys reacting to this. If I'm guessing right you're from southern parts of US. Greetings from Funland (Finland)!

Tarja still got it.

Another good reaction. Tarja has got a great voice.

These guys are and have been very popular in the US and Europe. Finnish "Red Necks" 🤠😍🤩Pls, we want more! Best Regards from Finland!
Thanks so much Jari for the links and the comments...Best wishes from the USA.
We have your requests on our list 😁😊😁😊👍
Steve 'N' Seagulls with Noora Louhimo you gotta see!
Totally agreed. Some American music with Finnish vibes 💪
Tarja's og Sleeping Sun with Nightwish is mesmerizing, worth a watch.
Same cottage, same band, with Noora Louhimo, "Piece of my heart". Finnish Janis Joplin.👍
"Push play!!!" Lol
Cool arrangement.

These guys presents excellent cover versions of all sorts of Hard/Heavy/Metal classics...
... And almost all of them in Live!!
🤘😎🇫🇮💙
🇫🇮👍Greetings to you wonderful souls in Alabama & all over the Internet. There's always room for great music.

I'm glad you guys checked this one out I've always really enjoyed this version It's very cool
Funny, I’ve known about these guys for years but just now caught on with what the name means
Kantele is traditional Finnish music instrument, more info: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kantele
Yes, our national instrument.
Hey y'all glade animal is back this is a odd pairing but it works y'all keep rocking your my fav band on you tube
Rock on!
Sleeping Sun is a favorite of mine. Hi gang; hope all is well down in Mississippi.
You're amaizing! Love your reactions! Please, react Steve 'n" Seagulls - November Rain
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
As said, watch the entire episode. The boat race between Tarja and the band leader has to be seen.
You did Sleeping Sun with Floor, but you should check out the song with Tarja at the End of An Era concert in Helsinki 2005. Sleeping Sun is their biggest hit ever, and while you are at it, don't forget Nightwish crews version of Sleeping Sun 🌄 Crewish.
You have done Sleeping sun with Floor I think, but for comparison try Sleeping sun live from End of an era concert with Tarja.
That little insteument is ”Kantele”
And for the Animal's cheer...react to the Epica's Abyss of time, Omegacoustic live studio version and then...the official music video.
I have spoken to the accordion player Hiltunen.
If you want to hear some heavy metal with bluegrass check out the album fade to bluegrass by the Alabama band called iron horse It's all Metallica covers done in bluegrass style and it's very good
How stoned is the back row in your studio? 👍🤣 Great reaction.
Great reaction! Now please do the original 😊🙏
👏🔥❤️👏🔥👏❤️
Fantastic reaction, thank you. now you just have to look up Battle Beast vocalist( Noora Louhimo - Finland ) and Steve n Seaguls do - Piece of my heart. th-cam.com/video/hZPixvpQYG0/w-d-xo.html

How about massive "American Woman" cover by big rock circus with world longest stage.

Band have also own songs, here is "Buena Vodka Social Club" (Maybe worth to react?)

Have you ever heard that rock band can go to bankruptcy? The did that too,some time ago. Some how bankruptcy was natural end for this band....
One day you do Thunderstruck by them :)
👍
Are you guys gonna do a reaction to Metallica's 'Enter Sandman' and/or 'Harvester of Sorrow'?. If you do check out their epic concert in Moskow 1991. There were only 1.6 million people there.. 🔥🔥
🧡👍😍

She does have a house there , does specials, plus The Voice Finland and The Voice Finland Senior ☮☮💘💘

my favorite version aswell
What's not to like about a big guy with a bear skin hat playing an accordion! Then throw in the original singer of nightwish on vocals, what could be better?
Well, the original version would be better, but I love this one too...and the entertainment level is 12 like they said.
They might look like they're from the mountains but they're not. There's no mountains in Finland, just lakes.
Hope you are ok. God bless.
Bluemetalgrass?? Metalbluefolkgrass??Everything works on this song except the accordion. A little discordant in that it does not fit with the other instruments or the lyrics of the song to me as it makes it a little too much like polka or Slavic folk. As always Tarja's vocals are soaring and melodious. This son was written specifically for the solar eclipse on 11 Aug 1999. Stay safe, God bless, keep rocking.

I’m not running the musicians down because I know they’re really good and Tara is a great singer, but unfortunately I think their spoiling the Nightwish song! Not for me, only saying 🏴
My dream is that Tarja will come back to Nightwish and there will be a tour with both Tarja and Floor.
I like the instrumental version of this. It gives it a whole new vibe. I’m sure to get hate for this, but I just can’t do Tarja. Never could. Sorry.
I think this is a poor copy of the real thing from Nightwish. Tarja were a lot better in her Nightwish versions - in my opinion - and Floor were incredible as this version below shows. The emotions and the storytelling does the song real justice - compared to the Steven Seagull / Tarja version
But that just my opinion

In this performance, I saw and heard more emotions from Tarja than ever from Floor's salt statue.
