I believe I speak for the Nightwish army when I say the more reactions you do the happier we will all be 😁 Trust me, we will never get tired of watching. Oh and I just love your analysis and the joy on your face when you see something amazing.
Haha well that's good cause there's a lot more coming.
@No One Hahaha you guys are the best!
Its not hard to be, if you have THIS good band and singer :)
@@ChaseCarneson four days past...four days....but we are still checking your channel and this video....four days....
And so say all of us.
Onstage, the band is noticeably happier since Floor joined. Me too. 😄🤘
Funny that isn't it Skeeze, I noticed too. . . . . . . . . .
You know, you are right! I have noticed that they obviously enjoy playing on stage, but only after your comment have I realized, that this was somehow missing before...
I mean, they always have been professionals before, and they hopefully had fun doing their shows, but it shows much more now!
It's because Floor is THERE, in the moment, with them. Sometimes Tarja seemed to be somewhere else when she was on stage. And Anette had stage fright, or was very nervous when she was on stage.
@@darkiee69 Not to mention there was absolutely no way she could keep up with Marco if he went full out, which was also sad cause Marco had to hold off to not overshadow "lead singer". No more problem with Floor, he can just go all out and she will always keep up and go even higher if needed. Annette was a failure of singer, because singer is as good as he/she is on live.
Q
Absolutely love listening to you, listening to your analysis and listening to Nightwish of course! I feel like I'm learning something new everytime you upload a reaction to a Nightwish masterpiece. Please continue with breaking down the songs, it's so interesting. Thank you for everything you do!
Thank you so much for the kind words and support. Glad you're enjoying them. Much more coming soon.
FYI: Troy is a BARD. Full on.
"It's almost annoying." Oh, you made me chuckle! You want to be jealous, but you enjoy what they do so much! If it makes you feel any better, Tuomas been SERIOUSLY doing this for over 20 yrs, fanatically devoted to perfection. The inside of his head must be a vast swirling galaxy the size of the Milky Way. He has entire solar systems in there. All full of music. Which, you know, doesn't leave room for much else.
And can I just shout out for Floor? She is trail blazing for a lot of young female singers, showing them that they can be more than just something pretty to look at on stage. Floor OWNS her power, her great talents and dedication to training. She is a force to be reckoned with, an equal partner on the stage. Yeah, she's smokin' hot. But she's more than a stage ornament.
He has such oceans within.
Tuomas is a perfectionist. I can only imagine how happy he was with Floor also being a perfectionist. I saw old footage of Floor getting ready for a show in Finland. They asked Tuomas to say something about Floor joining the band. The only thing he said was: "Floor is home." Awww. :)
@@kdbadk Oh.... Well done Kevin. Perfect reference!
I was going to say the same thing, it's almost unfair to other bands how much talent these guys have between them, it's simply ludicrous.
And you're right, he does have such oceans within. What a line, what a line. 🖤 God, that whole part of the song just absolutely guts me. Can't hear a playthrough without crying like a baby.
It's like Devin Townsend's "spirits will collide". It hits you right in the guts. There's no avoiding it.
@@darthmagnus8855 @Kevin Burgess Totally agree!!!!
If you ever go for Poet and the Pendulum please read a bit back story beforehand because it's so worth it. But some has probably already told you that. Great analytical vids, keep doing what you're doing.
On the other hand, seeing live reactions to something they have not studied beforehand is also interesting.
Yes definitely, The poet and pendulum is a must!
@@forgalzz7 I definitely agree with you, totally blind videos are my preference like 98% of the time, but in my personal opinion, the *content* of Poet is far, far too important to just coast through it like people do with their first listen through of most songs. Too much context, too much emotional baggage and history. It does both the reactor and the song a supreme disservice, because it's SO important that people understand what's going on in that one.
@@forgalzz7 true story, but with the Poet it makes the listening so much more....🤔 beautifuller...if that is even a word 😁
Some songs need a tat of study at forehand...🖐
@@Pitchblackbones - Agree to that, have seen one reactor doing it without reading up on the back story and it didn't go well. To sum it up in as few words as possible - "What was that all about, I have so many question after seeing this..."
Take our word for it Chase, it may require you to do some digging of your own but your impression of "The Poet..." will be much stronger if you know the background story. Cheers / B.
THEORY: so, this is how a song is composed, these are the rules..
TUOMAS: oh sorry, I wasn´t paying attention.. anyway, here is what I call a proper music:
I think it was J.S. Bach (or other equally famous composer) once said something to the effect "Learn all the rules so you know how to break them." Tuomas does generally follow rules, and likewise breaks them for specific effect, and does it surprisingly well.
@@ArimoDave "Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist." Pablo Picasso ♥
Music theory doesn't really say what the rules are; it's not an orthodoxy unless applied too narrowly or generally incorrectly. Theory more quantifies how it comes to be that certain things sound the way they do. How you use it is up to you.
Chase: Where are we going now
Floor: Wembley let's go
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
A bit more rare song to react. Weak Fantasy, live from Tampere, Finland
10/10 performance.
Love that song! Not enough reactions to that one, same with Ghost River.
You may be the most Happily Annoyed person I have ever seen. Don't feel bad for us hearing the songs again, that would happen without you. I am glad for us hearing your insight on the tech ( not Nerdy, Knowledgeable ) side. Often I say to myself, " never picked up on that before " during your reactions. Thank you for that ! Yes they love what they do, how could they not ? They play tight, they are tight with each other, don't get no better than that. The loyal Army....Every crowd view....They know all the damn lyrics singing alone. This is the Perfect Storm !
@Thomas Lilly - Thanks for that, it has saved me a heap of typing, well said; and Chase, keep at it, you are articulating bits I recognise and cannot put words to, thank you.
Really glad you did this track, its one of my favourites and normally never gets enough attention!
Well I hope you enjoy and hopefully I did it justice.
@@ChaseCarneson You did! 🤘👏
This song is highly underrated and not so well known throughout the NW army, unfortunately.. such a masterpiece!
The most 2 “metal” minutes ever 😃🤘🏻
indeed their most catchy songs like storytime nemo etc usually get more attention. This one is an underrated song, but because it's a grower, once you realize it, it's a banger
I really appreciate how you're giving shoutouts to Emppu on the guitar. As I watch these different reactions, he tends to go unnoticed because he's not as show-offy as some lead guitarists may be, with long wailing solos and whatnot... But I do love the richness he's bringing to the music and I absolutely adore his riffs. His are among some of my most favourite in all of metal. So, props for giving Emppu his just props! :D
He deserves them!!!
Emppu adds so much to this "supergroup" of artists. His energy alone is infectious. I cant help but to smile when I see him
If Nightwish wanted 1 more talented human to join their group I feel like Chase would be their pick👌👏
Haha IMAGINE!!! I think there are millions ahead in the queue, but I appreciate the kind words!
@@ChaseCarneson Chase for the stars?
@@michaellejeune7715 Chase ad astra? ..hehe
If Nightwish add one more talented person in the band, the universe will implode.
@@ChaseCarneson Epica - Cry For The Moon : th-cam.com/video/Dys1_TuUmI4/w-d-xo.html 💕💕💕
Comment at 8:12
**Troy just standing in the back, hardly noticed that he is singing back-up by 98% of reactors...ever**
😆
Yes, he was singing on the chorus.
Yeah Chase and Elizabeth Zharoff are about the only ones that pickup on Troy so quickly. As much as I really like Julia, I think Elizabeth is a better reactor.... especial her serious giggles, nerdy responses about science, and facial expressions. I've watch a lot of reactors too. There is an older composer dude (Doug Helvering) that really picks up on the time signatures, key changes, et. al. I think Chase is one of the best overall reactors. I have to admin that out of the maybe 50 reactors to GLS, 10 of them provided useful technical information about GLS (like Tank the Tech) that give a more complete understanding of everything.
There is only one thing every Nightwish fan, new and old, can agree to hate.
Not having discovered them earlier in life.
I mean…. I think that eleven years old is pretty decent 😅
You will notice a few differences to the Wacken concert. This is two years on. There is a new drummer and the sixth member of the group Troy is more prominent. If you want a growling Floor, do Yours is an Empty Hope from same Wembley concert
Yours Is An Empty Hope, not End Of All Hope.
PageMonster : Yes, sorry, changed it.
Or pre-Nightwish, for her growling, I usually suggest the song Disdain from her previous band Revamp, live at Grasspop.
@@PeaceweaponPT Disdain was exactly what I meant, that's what I was thinking, I don't even know why I typed Discord, that song I hadn't even thought of lol. Changed it now.
Love Yours is a Empty Hope, no question. But I enjoy the cruise edition more..Smaller stage, Sound is more direct imo.
Nothing wrong with the London version btw...👊
As allways super reaction, I feel educated afterwards, keep them comming :-). I can recommend "Weak Fantasi" Tampere - th-cam.com/video/AN239Pbqbjo/w-d-xo.html, featuring an angry Floor :-), and an epic "drum battle" between Kai and Toumas.
Emppu uses a D tuning on every thing since Century Child. Previous to that he would use two different guitars depending on the song. So on early stuff if the guitar is purple it is D if it is white it is E or standard.
Nice information add!
Someone go tell Tank, he's obsessed with Emppus guitars.
"...Where are we going now?"
Correct! If I had to attempt to sum up Nightwish in 5 words, those would be the ones I'd use too
Yep! Or maybe 7: "Nightwish is like a box of chocolates"
Troy's playing his Irish Bouzouki, not a guitar.
Aaaah okay, thanks for that.
@@ChaseCarneson It has four pairs of strings, whereas the traditional one has three.
looks like a mandolin to me right?
@@hi_keith6423 I don't have one but believe it is more related to a mandolin than a guitar but larger.
@@lonelywind3511 yeah looks like a electric mandolin kind of.
I'm looking forward to your reaction to "Yours Is An Empty Hope" (live at Wembley), as you are able to listen all the details of music and vocals and there are some interesting things to find there.
Dont miss out on "The Islander (Live at Tampere)", Marco might suprise you!
He's Finnish, it's spelled Marko with a K!
I always loved the line "Turn every poet loose", and the way Floor just DECLARES it in this rendition raises it to a whole another level. She is so god damn powerful.
Also, can we take a moment to appreciate just how long she windmill headbangs non-stop in the part before that?
you have to listen to Weak Fantasy, such a beautiful story and song from Nightwish, i know you will love it.
Nightwish - Yours is an empty Hope
I think you are ready for this one as you really pay attention to everything.
I've been saying this for a while now, and it's hard to imagine I'm in the minority.
Couldn't agree more. I'm sure he'd catch everything that others miss. :P
@@eleanorhartshorn8816 Yeah! Like that one thing that everyone misses! I have faith in him!
Wembley version plz
I'm personally partial to the performance on the cruise (I feel like it's mixed best), though the key thing people like you to notice is easiest to hear in the Wembley performance.
6:02 "There she is". XD Someone has a crush. But seriously, how are you so good at analyzing music? And also there is something very pleasant about the way you speak. It's a pleasure to listen to you. I'm requesting Ghost river next.
Appreciate the kind words. It's definitely on the list.
Before you get to the BIG TWO ( Poet and the pendulum and The Greatest Show on Earth) Big because they are both over ten minuets.
I think you need to see:
I want my tears back (Live at Wacken) Shows more of Troys talents and a new side you have yet to see.
Dark Chest of wonders (Wacken) A kickass opener for more of that metal goodness.
Wish I Had An Angel (Wacken) For more Floor and Marco harmonies.
The Islander (live at Tampere) Beautiful Marco showpiece.
While your lips are still red (live at Wembley) One of Nightwish's slower songs and great vocals by Marco.
Nemo and Ever Dream (both at Wacken) mainly because they are two very popular songs and the whole Wacken show is gold.
Yours is an Empty Hope (Wembley 2015) Proper grows from Floor in this one.
Devil & the Deep Dark Ocean (live in Buenos Aries) A very old song reborn but it's a must see. It is insane.
Dead Boy's Poem (live Buenos Aries) Another old song redone. Very emotional performance.
Shudder Before The Beautiful (Wembley) For me personally it's the guitar riff that does it for me.
There's probably some I missed but then I think you are good to go on THE BIG TWO. After that you can jump into their new album which i can't get over how well it is made, I think you will love it and would be able to talk for hours about it.
Deads Boy Poem...you forgot
@@palmanbracht9125 Ah yes, thank you. If I missed anymore keep them coming.
@@clumsyturtle8544 The Last Ride of the Day ;)
I would add Last of the Wilds from Wacken too on the list. Beautyful instrumental.
And I would also add Bless the Child at Wacken and Stargazers at Tampere
I can practically hear the wheels in your brain ticking when you are listening these songs. It is nice to have reactions like yours, when you actually point out and explain things on the songs. It is lot better than just aaaah's and ooooh's as we all know how good they are. I am musically pretty illiterate so my knowledge of music is very minimal. But watching this kind of reactions I've learned so much. Learning bits and pieces of instruments, about playing them, composing, vocal use etc makes everything so much more interesting. Also makes me to appreciate everything even more. So thank you for your "insights" and keep on bringing more reactions :)
I really appreciate you. Thank you for the lovely comment and support.
Positive energy between band members on stage adds a lot to the performance and makes you love them even more.
When I first started to listen to Nightwish, about 4 months ago, I started to make a list of my favorite songs. I soon found that was a waste of time. Seems all songs of Nightwish have become my favorites.
Tried the same many many times.. almost impossible.
I've always thought Nightwish had a proggy influence to them. There's something very sneaky and subtle about the way Tuomas writes music. You can tell by all the attention put into the details that he really knows what he's doing and that he's also got the good fortune to have band members around that are excellent musicians in their own right. It's not showing off but below the surface you can see that they're secretly stupidly good musicians, they just don't feel the need to overplay. Which makes even more complex pieces like this one (structurally it's just like - wow) or Song of Myself all the more impressive, because at first sight you don't realize there's so much stuff going on.
It doesn't hurt their vocalist is one of the most talented women around either.
Also, their hometown in Kitee has a museum dedicated to these guys run by their former music teacher.
You can see why we call her Goddess. 😉
If this year's Wembley gig goes ahead, it's going to be an emotional one. There will not be a dry eye in the house - in the crowd or onstage. I just wish I had a ticket. They sold out in minutes.
You got to hand it to Troy. He is the master of playing rock music with completely unconventional instruments.
Nightwish : I want my tears back. Live from Wacken 2013. it has a nice new ( for you with nightwish) instrument played by Troy. The song is so so good.
Yeah this one is definitely on the list too.
The Buenos Aires 2018 version is so much better. The crowd interaction is awesome and of course Floor and the band are spot on!
@@ChaseCarneson If you do I want my tears back, please go for the Buenos Aires 2018 version :) The crowd and the band are on a whole different level there.
@@ChaseCarneson be sure to do the Wacken 2013 version, yes, the atmosphere is great in Buenos Aires, but the sound mixing and vocals are superior at Wacken
@@atlantis315 With him doing the reaction, i wouldn't mind at all doing two versions of the same song. Not that there's a lack of songs he could react to, but...
This song was written during the Annette era so has a more pop/metal style vocal. Floor makes it so much better. She's so amazing that she pulls back into the harmony part to compliment Marco's vocals and really blends with him instead of sounding like 2 soloists singing at the same time.
Really perked my ears up when you mentioned Empuu's solo having note changes that sound just almost a hair too late. I'm sure there's a musical term for that, but I can't find it in my brain currently. It's definitely there, and keeps your interest peaked. Floor does this also, in particular in her Beste Zanger performances (I can't remember which ones this moment). They're both already good, they already have your attention, but it's like they're making craft choices which edge you closer and closer to the front of your seat listening to them. As musicians, Nightwish have so many incremental buffs above "hitting the right notes" it's just astounding.
Wel... what can i say... your a fanboy now😜😎🇳🇱🤘 we heard the song but your surprising wow faces are priceless.🤣
I've been a Nightwish fan for a while but I feel like thanks to your explanations of what's going on with the composition and technique I am seeing the songs in a new light and experiencing the band at a different level I wouldn't normally be able to since I have very little musical ability. Your excitement for the music is infectious and I am grateful for the opportunity to re-experience the songs in a brand new way.
Yes my favourite you just really made my day 🤘🏼🤗🥰
Aaaah thank you for that. Hope you enjoy!
Don't feel bad for us fans who have heard these songs before. Yes, we don't have the "first experience" feelings, but we get to rehash those feelings through the first experiences of reactors such as yourself.
I personally love to see the wonder and awe in all your faces as you feel the amazement. I'm right there, alongside all of you on your Nightwish journey to enjoy it with you. 👍🏻🤘🏻
Emppu is former judoka, in his youth he was in Finnish junior national teamm so ill bet there is strenght in his arms :)
Watching your reactions it's like falling in love again with Nightwish. It's great to see through your eyes how wonderful they are and also it gives us the opportunity to appreciate a lot of things that maybe we didn't pay attention before
Wow, thank you for that. Appreciate the support.
I agree so much with cd860viu, do your homework and understand the meaning behind the song, what it meant for the band and more so for Tuomas, teh breakup, the fan's reaction after the breakup, don't just read the words, research the meaning of the song....
Great stuff and great breakdown, try GHOSTRIVER from Wacken 2013, it really shows floor and Marko ( hope I got his name right) with his belting hard vocals with Floor's beautiful vocals over the top, sounds incredible! Its my new favourite! 😎🤘
I will check it out. Thank you for the support.
Just spent 3 1/2 hours watching Chase Carneson reactions that I have already watched many times. I now have headphones so I hear most of what you are explaining. Wish I had younger eardrums. Do you stock them?
As long as you know the backstory of Poet and the Pendulum I think you should be ready for it.
I love how you can pick out the small stuff on the first listen! I’d love to see you react to I want my tears back, and hear what you have to say about it😁
It's on the list. Coming soon. Thanks so much for the support.
Chase, as we're coming to expect now - another wonderful technical & impressionistic reaction. Great job man! What REALLY made me happy though, and it's such a small thing...
Someone *finally* reacted to the body language showmanship at 17:08 -
"She's fierce man!"
You got that right, bro. Fierce and beyond.
Appreciate this a ton. Thank you so much for it all.
Don’t feel bad for us. Seeing someone new to Nightwish enjoy them as much as we do is a real buzz
Nightwish: Expect the unexpectable...
"They are masters of contrast... and everything else. It's almost annoying." Says it all Chase about this wonderful band. I loved and learned so much as always from this reaction. Thank you so much. Paul 😍👍😊
By the way
That was exactly why you are my first and only sub
I appreciate you, Richard. Thanks for the support.
The shot of Empuu 'showing off' is, I believe, him throwing his plectrums into the crowd. I've noticed him do it before. I also noticed when he takes a new one, he uses it first, before throwing it into the crowd, adding to it's value to whoever is lucky enough to catch it. It's the little things that count...
Another laser sharp analysis. Kudos.
Probably the best notification to see after work, great analysis as always! To be honest I do get all nostalgic and giddy seeing you experience Nightwish for the first time, just brings a smile to my face.
You're pretty much ready for Poet and the Pendulum, just read up on it first, like most people are suggesting. The Greatest Show on Earth is a whole other can of worms, being their longest piece and all. You should really get some popcorn and get comfy for that one.
As for suggestions, some of their older stuff like Nemo, Ever Dream and maybe Wish I Had An Angel would be songs I'd personally like to see you dive into. A fun one might also be Last Ride Of The Day ft. Tony Kakko who sings for Sonata Arctica.
Cheers, stay safe!
Aaaaah that's really nice of you. Hope you enjoyed and thanks for the continued support.
@@ChaseCarneson Love the channel man, always look forward to your reactions!
Another great reaction. While I love their newer work, there's just this magic that happens when Floor performs their older stuff, or stuff that came before her time. It's like Tuomas was inadvertently writing the music for a performer he didn't have yet.
Rijl Qanturis - you could be on to something... Floor and Nightwish had know each other already for a long time before she joined... Floor performed with Marco already years before and she was, together with her band After Forever, the support act for Nightwish in the Netherlands... Personally I believe Anette would never have been in Nightwish if Floor had been available (she was busy at the time with her own projects).
Before reacting to the Poet, I'de advise to check out at least 1 song from their first singer Tarja, since The Poet deals with the time she was fired from the band, so you can see the way she and the band performed and acted, plus she's one hell of a singer on her own right.
I won't be going into who's best, thats a very slippery slope to go on coments lol, but react to at least The Phantom of the Opera live from 2005 end of an era concert, that's probably the best performance you can see of her with the band.
That Phantom was recorded in the last gig (Hartwall Arena, Helsinki) of the tour and after the gig the band kicked Tarja out. The gig was on Oct 21st 2005 and band's open letter to Tarja was published a day later on Nightwish's website.
@@monksuu And she walked off arms-around-shoulders with Emppu during Ghost Love Score that night.
"Light THE FIRE, FEAST".. damn, it has been 15 years and still chills every time
My favourite Nightwish reactor, and you’re right, it’s great seeing your first time reaction and reliving the amazement and excitement I had the first time I heard them through you.
Btw am i only one who feels dark tower from this
Please captions. Your fan from the Czech Republic.
I absolutely LOVE your reactions, you don't have to say anything! your face, especially your eyes say it all, love it!
Since you seem to enjoy the compositions a lot, in case you still haven't seen this comment from Iron Maiden's Steve Harris: "I think Tuomas is an absolute genius as a composer and Dark Passion Play and Imaginaerum are 2 of my all time favourite albums.”
.
Also, please keep the Nightwish song reactions coming, you only got about 110 master pieces left to go xD
Has "Ever Dream" or " I Want My Tears Back" been suggested yet? I am too lazy to go through the comments. LOL.
Yeah haha they're on the list for sure.
When Floor roars at the audience at the end 😂😍
Goood which song has the same tempo/riff pattern as 7:36??? 😭🤔🤔🤔😩 It's in the back of my head.... 🤨
I know all of the Nightwish songs you've reacted to have been live versions so far, but I HIGHLY recommend you check out some songs from their new album that released in April, especially the one called "Shoemaker". There's an official lyric video for it. Thanks!
Shoemaker is getting a lot of asks so will definitely get it in the plan.
I think the new album is best enjoyed song by song from start to finish, all tracks have an official lyric video, except track two (Noise) which has a proper music video. Nightwish week, with saturday and sunday double whammy! (9 tracks on album one) 🤪
I believe they play in D standard tuning so a full step down.
Nice one.
You my friend are a great reactor, and your experience shows. Subscribed.
Thank you for the support and kind words, Matt.
Like your reactions very much. Will follow you through this journey. No problem for me / us that we heard the songs multiple times. You are factual and calm in your reactions. It is sharply liked.
Your facial expression at 13:17 was priceless :-D Never mind, I was the same when I heard this song for the first time.
Chase: some say I'm ready, some say I'm not
The Poet and the Pendulum: I will melt your brain either way!
😂😂😂👌
Look at the huge smile on Tuomas' face at the 11:19 mark....so awesome!!!
Like always amazing sound plus the goddess Floor Jensen of Nightwish.
Great reaction as always - I am by no means a guitar expert nor do i play that well, but the info for Emppu's guitars are as follows:
Emppu has tuned his studio guitars in D tuning since the release of Century Child (2002) - until then, his guitars were tuned in standard. During concerts, he has two guitars - one for each tuning -
In 2004 Vuorinen started using an ESP custom shop version of the Horizon known as the EV-1. The EV-1 has an alder body, maple neck (neck through construction), ebony fingerboard, Seymour Duncan pickups (a Duncan Custom TB-5 in the bridge, a SHR-1n Hot Rails in the middle, and a SH2-n Jazz in the neck), 5 way switch, single volume control and a gold Floyd Rose tremolo system. He regularly used two during live shows, a purple one tuned to DGCFAD and a white one tuned to EADGBE. After the release of Dark Passion Play in 2007 he toured with a new signature guitar, the EV-2. This was very similar to the purple EV-1, but now had a tone control and a large decal on the body known as the "Harem Girl". The third incarnation of the series, the EV-3 appeared in 2012 featuring the Imaginaerum cover art and no middle pickup. On the band's 2012/13 Imaginaerum World Tour, Vuorinen used the EV-1 and EV-3. During rehearsals for Nightwish's eighth album Emppu has been using a new custom guitar, built for him by Ruokangas Guitars
Hope that helps shed some light on his set up mate.
Thanks, Paul.
I personally believe you're ready for Poet. If anybody is, it's Chase. But a little background on WHY Tuomas wrote it will help even the most knowledgeable musicians.
He knows what he's talking about.Not like others.👍
Another brilliant reaction. I love to see the on going battle between the connaiseur. Of music you are And and the fan of the band you are becoming....
My new favourite Nightwish reactions, not many of these can tell me something new and interesting after listening to this stuff hundred times over with various commentaries from various vocal coaches, musicians etc. Yet, here it is. Can not wait for more! Mr. Carneson, prepare to be frustrated even more, there is no coming back now :D.
Thank you so much for the kind words. Appreciate the support.
You have to check out the Poet and the Pendulum Chase, but research the background of the song first.
Emppu mostly plays in standard D tuning. Sometimes standard, sometimes down to C
Emppu's tuning is D, so a bit looser strings, makes the bends easier 😊 And a fun fact : the purple ESP he plays, he's been playing that since 2005, the only guitar he plays live. If it has interest th-cam.com/video/6dhSkfbHXJc/w-d-xo.html, a tour of the gear setup
The wolves, my love, will come
Taking us home where dust once was a man
Is there life before a death?
Do we long too much?
(And never let in)
Howl, seven days to the wolves
Where will we be when they come?
Seven days to the poison
And a place in heaven
Time drawing near as
They come to take us
This is my church of choice
Love's strength stranded in love's sacrifice
For the rest, I have to say to you
I will dream like the god
(And suffer like all the dead children)
Howl, seven days to the wolves
Where will we be when they come?
Seven days to the poison
And a place in heaven
Time drawing near as
They come to take us
This is where heroes and cowards part ways
Light the fire, feast
Chase the ghost, give in
Take the road less traveled by
Leave the city of fools
Turn every poet loose
Howl, seven days to the wolves
Where will we be when they come?
Seven days to the poison
And a place in heaven
Time drawing near as
They come to take us
Howl, seven days to the wolves
Where will we be when they come?
Seven days to the poison
And a place in heaven
Time drawing near as
They come to take us

You want rasp, growl? Yours is an empty hope live at wembley(clearer sound on vocals) or the nightwish cruise (better overall sound of the recording, instruments etc).
Great reaction btw, and this is one of my favorites from them.
Next Nightwish in Tampere Finland :)
Odd how your expression intensified when the first long shot of Floor in shorts and thigh boots materialized ;).
Gotta keep the blood circulation up lol
Another great reaction...comments on point and a great appreciation for music in general, well done! Keep em coming!
Yeesssss! Please keep the Nightwish, Unleash The Archers, Band Maid and Jinjer videos coming. Can't get enough of your analysis.
No problem. Will be throwing some fresh new bands in too but they'll be there don't you worry.
@@ChaseCarneson Thank you. If you would like some new bands if you take requests I'd recommend the bands Sabaton & The HU.
Also I may have dropped a list of Nightwish songs in another comment. Also I never heard of Band Maid until I saw your videos so thanks for that amazing gift.
@@ChaseCarneson if you want to check really great musicians try Ayreon. You will see what is kicking ass project. Try Age of Shadows LIVE Universe and Druids turn to stone same concert. I mean every single song if you pick up from that concert is awesome. You will not be disappointed. Trust me.
@@ChaseCarneson Oho, more new bands coming down the pipeline? Might I be so bold as to humbly suggest tossing Powerwolf into that there pot
It's almost annoying how good they are.....I hear ya.
And I think why the Army flocks so hard to reactors is that we know how good they are and what's infinitely more frustrating is how little known they are.
We just love converting new followers and appreciators of such a wonderful group, and seeing the joy and wonder play out on the reactors' faces, and by proxy getting to feel that pure excitement.
Thanks for the support. Loving them and can't wait for more!
Another enjoyable reaction, you are like Nightwish, you never fail!
That's a massive compliment. Thank you for the support.
If you want to continu on nightwish, i would suggest to listen to shoemaker which is a gorgeous piece from them it's just so good and Floor said that it was one of the songs that made her evolve, because it was so hard to sing for her, also you should read about the background of it, its very interesting, its about the founder of the planetary science eugene shoemaker, also if you react to that song the latin words at the end means all praise be given to the stars, if you dont know latin.
Try the instrumental versions to get an even better understanding to the songs and a greater appreciation for what is entailed.
3:50 "I'm going to have to go back to the beginning again..."
It truely is a chore to HAVE to go back and listen to them again... I feel your pain.
😂😂😂 I know right!!!
You are amazing. Welcome to the army
Thank you Stefanie.
I hope Shudder Before the Beautiful is on your list :)
7 days to the wolves is fire 🔥🔥🔥
It is an Irish version of the Greek Bouzouki.
I believe that what Troy is playing is an electric Irish bouzouki, not a guitar.
Very interesting.
You are correct, sire
it's more you than Nightwish ... tsss
I have just recently come into Nightwish myself and that in combination with Beste Zangers (Chase...you might just want to look that up and put it in your reaction rotation as floor sings amazingly beautiful in this 8 week series), I never saw any competition between Floor and the previous singers..namely Tarja. No offense, but when I prefer any live Wacken recording with Floor over the original recording, that says volumes. I know the classic talking points as I have done my homework, but Floor adds sooooo much more depth to the songs, more grit, more passion, more involvement, more heart. In addition, her operatic vocals are floating on angles wings so she does hold her own very well against Tarja in that category as well. I listened to Tarja to give her a chance and....meh. She just doesn't give me goosebumps or almost brings me to tears every time she sings. It is not called Tarjagasm for a reason.
Amazing that Nightwish just sounds even better live...truly and experience to behold.
I couldn't find it in the comments here, so I will respond to your guitar tuning question. ESP guitars tuned to D standard (down a whole tone) ; D G C F A D. He also uses 10-46 gauge strings, which are pretty slinky when tuned down that low. One would think they would just flap around like rubber bands, but they are still very playable and sound great, especially the tightness in the low end. I use the same tuning and string gauge in my band (Ophelia Falling).
Thanks for the insight.
@@ChaseCarneson BTW, your insights are amazing; you have very good ears and able to express relatively complex music concepts in a way that non-musician or novice musicians can appreciate.
13:13 This is my favorite pocket song from Nightwish ^_^
