Hello Jess [Soprano Notes] ! Nightwish fans here, your reaction just appeared on our radar..
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing in 2013 at Wacken Open Air festival, in front of a 82k+ audience.
About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra, London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
You really understood what Floor Jansen did there, and thank you for explaining it to us all! Instant subscribe for that. You appreciate all the key elements of a Nightwish show: the intricate classical-structured "cinematic score" composition, the high level of musicianship of all band members, the stellar vocals and charisma of Floor Jansen, our Dutch metal queen.
Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
" Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "
Hope you'll continue this journey with us, so I'll drop here a list of songs with the current lineup of the band you may like (please consider this list of links only as "a tip of the iceberg", an indication that they have a vast and very diverse repertoire, and not as something mandatory):

You can also react to Floor Jansen "tapping" other musical genres in Beste Zangers 2019 (TV show from Netherlands) here is a playlist made by Floor herself (start listen it in reverse order..): th-cam.com/play/PL8iSYWeQhlimgUnWw1FDdiJN0msPzqpLo.html
To understand better the context of this show you should visit also Jenniezelf's YT channel (En subtitled materials): th-cam.com/users/jenniezelf
For entire episodes of the show with En translation, you should check Denise Hofs's DM channel: www.dailymotion.com/xpinkeu/videos
In these pandemic times, Floor Jansen has decided to make covers for us, which you can find on her YT channel th-cam.com/channels/xy4Ijz2QKXXJaREs-isxwA.html - there are already 2 covers there, the first is "Let It Go" from "Frozen" (2 weeks ago, already over 1M views) and the second - "Alone" from "Heart" (released just a few hours ago) ..
Thank you! Waiting for more Nightwish reactions. All the best from RO. Stay safe.
Apestan tus mismas sugerencias y perorata de sienpre, Gabrielito!!!
Apestan tus mismas sugerencias!!! Aburridas!!!
@@alejandromoya7 I'm sorry you don't like my comment. I would suggest you to come with your own comment and links, ie to be constructive, rather than depleting your energy telling me how boring I am.
Nice to see you in action again Gabriel, thank you for your hard work spreading the gospel :)
@@gabriel.bardac dear gabriel it is possible that I wait for this comment of yours to see a raction at nightwish, always explanatory and updated great job, and for those who do not appreciate .... here in Italy it is said:fatti i cazzi tuoi che campi cent' anni - mind your cock that you spend a hundred years
“She has such a delicate voice.”
NIGHTWISH fans - “eating popcorn and waiting”
I confess I was exactly like you described, sadisticly waiting for the epicness to hit her ahaha
We do this a lot, many of us are the envy of first-time reactors, I remember discovering Nightwish 16 years ago & was asking myself what had I been doing ALL this time, how had I not heard of these magical beings that when together form the immense creature of perfect wonder called 'Nightwish'. I am now of course forever enlisted.
😂😂😂😂
right on point :P
So true!!!
At the audition: "Floor, what's your vocal range?"
Floor: "Yes."
I was there and witnessed the goddess...
So jealous am I!
Me too.
If time travel was possible. This would be the concert I would go to
Nice!
Magic. Was not there, but I can feel magic through the screen.
I love how we're slowly turning every opera, pop, rapper, country, music producer into a metal head. Slowly, but surely, we will have them all.
metal is universal my friend
Let it be so my friend. Gotta love these honest reactions to our Queen Floor.
Metal prevails! 🤘🏼
Stop sharing the plan. lol
There is only one true master in music. Metal shall rule the world
Watching an opera singer bobbing her head to a metal song is very cool indeed
Lovely commentary
"I had a experience just watching them thru the screen"
My friend, that "experience" is what we call a FLOORGASM!
floorgasm! haha I love it!
So good, "Floorgasm" is actually a part of Urban Dictionary.
No joke, legit.
@@isaiahwelch8066 :-D
yep, thats absolutely true! :D
@@isaiahwelch8066 Whuuuut? I just checked and you're right!
you know you're a musician when you have a favorite interval 😂
Yeah, 3:20 was the most nerd thing I've heard all day.
Tuomas: "Floor, what's your range?"
Floor: "Yes".
:-D
Pretty much that 😂😂😂
probably 9000km?
More like... Power!!! Unlimited POWER!
More like :
what's your range ?
floor: range ? never heard of that... sounds cute tho
I always enjoy it when someone doesn’t just react to a song like this, but also breaks it down and analyzes it because they have the musical skill and knowledge to do so. Great video!
Thanks so much!
Really all the interruptions are fuggin annoying she could wait till the end
@@flyingfox2728 Really? How else would she delve into all the minute details that she does, so that the viewer keeps track of what she’s talking about? The interruptions are precisely when you actually LEARN something! You can watch the original video anytime you ever want - UNINTERRUPTED. And if you find interruptions annoying, you may choose not to watch reaction videos. 🙄
@@flyingfox2728 I would sooner have the reactions at the time they occur. What I don’t like is if people are talking over the music but stopping it to comment is a perfect scenario for my preferences.
Totally agree. This one had everything, emotions, animation, and knowledge. Absolute perfection!
This is one of the best reactions I've seen for Ghost Love Score. And I've seen them all. Instant subscribe.
Yep! Subscribed as well! Same reason.
I did the same. Concise, articulate and a passion for the art.
Subscribed also. One of the best reactions to this most frequently reviewed songs on TH-cam.
Yes. That was exaxctly what I thought. Brilliant.
wow, thank you! Such a huge compliment!
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes!!! I love me a noob Nightwish reactor who clearly knows what she's talking about because she's a pro as well and then simply swooning and fangirling over what she's experiencing. No doubt in my mind to hit that Subscribe button. Prepare for the Nightwish Army. I don't explain, you'll see it for yourself!
I am SO excited!!
@@jessicasopranonotesSeems to be a quickly growing US Nightwish fan base finally. This song blew up on the internet about 7 months back, that's what pulled me, and tens of thousands of other new acolites into the Nightwish Army! Symphonic metal is multi-genre and Nightwish is just out if this world! Enjoy!
@@m2duebbie bingo
If you want to see Floor fangirling, watch the "Phantom of the opera" with Henk Poort. He's the guy Andrew Lloyd Webber said is the best Phantom on the planet. Floor's a fan of him, but when she asked to sing that duet with him, he accepted on the condition that he would be singing that song with her on one or two concerts at the next Nightwish tour.
Really impressive singing. (The thunder at the beginning of the video is not a sound effect, there was a thunderstorm in the area that just happened to add its voice. ;-))
@@realulli, one of my favorite videos from 2019 Beste Zangers tv show. Love how Henk just grabbed Floor in a huge hug when they finished!
99,99% of vocalists sing what they can.
Floor sings what she wants 🤘
Hilarious! All these goth singers sound the same! She’s just an Amy lee rip off!
@@jimroberts62 "goth" ?! What a piece of ear hahah! Please just listen Ariana Grande!
@@jimroberts62 I really really hope you're joking. Amy Lee is a good singer but Floor Jansen is a 1 in 1million singer.
Exactly
@@jimroberts62 Amy Lee is decent pop singer yes. She can't sing 10% of what Floor can tho
Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign.
Absolutely the best reaction to dear Floor and the band EVER!! You pour out info at speed. Just brilliant!! Thank you and CHEERS!! Hope you have a fantastic day young lady..
I completely agree!
@@Scirzo SAME!
Agree
Thank you J!! That means so much ☺️ and I hope you have an amazing day as well
As Marco would say, I agree!!
Most people react to "the note" at the very end, but overlook the moment just before which is even more impressive (imo). Glad you called it out, and thanks for the great reaction.
seriously, I've had that part stuck in my head for days, SOO good!!
Man, I hoped that someone realized that too! I mean, yeah, the sustained note it's so cool, and so hard, and then the people's reaction it's priceless too, BUT that part, that "MY fall", ugh, that's the money!
@@jessicasopranonotes you should check her beste zangers, she sings so many beautiful songs, even a little of opera.
This! While the end note is beyond fantastic, the buildup and the twang she does with her mixed voice right before is actually unbelievable.
I friggin love that moment.
It's wonderful hearing someone, with such a beautiful and trained voice herself, confident enough to compliment and admire another talented vocalist. My mother was a soloist in a choir and I always envied her talent that wasn't handed down to me, but she would compliment other's voices too. Mark of a professional I'm guessing. Nice job here explaining things I'd never have noticed. Thank you
My mother is an incredible baker and I didn’t get any of that handed down to me lol
I’m sure where you don’t feel confident in your singing abilities, you radiate in other talents😊
Thank you for your comment, so nice 😊
@@jessicasopranonotes I just found your lovely reply and I had to tell you, I am a very talented baker, lol. I cook okay, but I love baking all types of pastries and cakes. I wish you so much success in your career and your channel.
@@cynthiatolman326 lol
Maybe you two were switched at birth. ;-)
Yes, it's called professionalism.
Anyone that needs to tear people down to lift himself up is a loser.
Funfact: nightwish calls floor while she is on the wedding of her sister: nightwish: ' floor, help can you fill in for anette?' Floor:' oke.' nightwish: 'can you learn the whole playlist in 48 hours?' And floor nailed it this was for this tour
Fun fact 2: They have a documentary of this called “Please learn the setlist in 48 hours” :) I hope I remembered the title correctly, but you’ll find it even if I messed something up!
Wait. I knew she was covering for Anette after she had to leave the band suddenly, but did she really learn the set in two days?!
@@res20stupid yep. it also was just about the perfect time to ask her as well, as Floor was suffering from *major* burnout and wasn't sure she would ever want to perform again. She's said that if Tuomas had asked even a month earlier, she would have turned him down. But he didn't, she didn't, and here we are.
Really interesting and knowledgeable perspective to a song I’ve heard an unreasonable number of times. And it looks like you quite enjoyed it too. Looking forward to more Nightwish. I’ve not yet seen them live but I will next May.
England? Can't wait for the London show!
@@Daederik No in Luxembourg
@@KL-qy4ye Ah excllent, hope you guys have a good show!
Düsseldorf, Germany right here, cant wait. Fingers crossed we can go by then
@@Daederik thx you too
Floor can sing everything she wants to, from death growls to opera style.
She can sing more than that
in one breathe
@@georgelyras1978 That is an understatement
Yours is an Empty Hope absolutely blew me away with her growls
I've seen 100+ reactions to this performance and you've just landed in my top 5 and gained a subscriber. Very insightful and well done.
This, you are particularly insightful with your reaction. Thank you very much!
what others are good ?
@@zukacs
Chase Carneson, Julia Nilon, Tank the Tech, Voice Love Co - Christi Bovee, Big Brain Singee - Charlie Calotta & The Charasmatic Voice - Elizabeth Zharoff.
I don't know what's more impressive, how many reactions you have watched or how you have any clue how much it is. But yeah this one is very good
ikr why cant i stop watching GLS reactions
I love how you breakdown the parts of the song. You also have a lot of music knowledge which lends itself to your credibility and before I forget, I love your voice. Nightwish is an amazing band!
Thanks Jim!
Welcome aboard, you haven't heard half of what Floor, and Nightwish, can do. The Marco, bassist, also sings and together they make an incredible pair. The compositions and instrumentalists are top level.
Oh nice!! I would love to hear more of him! Can't wait!
@@jessicasopranonotes Jess, LOVE Love your insightful reaction and genuine enthusiasm for this great band & their phenomenal singer,there are certain songs that lend themselves to your ear ,abilities & knowledge ,I sincerely hope you will jump on these asap as you are the kind of reactor that NW fans desire & deserve,cheers & God Bless!

@@jessicasopranonotes
I have a personal bias towards The Islander when it comes to Marko’s singing with Nightwish
Welcome to Floor Jansen, the 6' Valkyrie Goddess of Metal. You've heard about 40% of what she can do. I've heard her sing rock, metal, classical aria, country, lullaby, smooth jazz, pop and musical. I've heard her sing in English, Dutch, German, Finnish, Spanish, Italian and Latin. I've heard her do deathgrowls and hold a D6 for 8 seconds. And I've heard her do all those things live on stage. Sure, there are singers who can do any of the things she does better than her, but there's only one who can do all of them and sound great and convincing doing it all.
Beautiful analysis, Jess. This was a joy to watch.
You forgot one thing, she's a vocal coach as well. 🙂🤘🤘
she's 6 feet tall?! OMG that's amazinggg! I am really looking forward to reacting to more of them. By far, one of the most fun videos I've made, Thank you for supporting and watching!
I have seen Tarja, Annette and Floor, they have all been amazing, but I have to admit Floor is my fave. Tarja is my intro to the band back in 2000 but Floor can bring every song from every album to life. Amazing. ❤️
This is one of the coolest reactions because we all are learning and not just looking at some -oh wow, nice, dope, damn wow- reactions xdxdxdx
Happy first Floorgasm! Best (Night)wishes!
I don't know if anybody mentioned this, but this song was the closing of their set. So she did all of this after singing for a solid two hours.
Actually Mid-Set the last song of their set was Last Ride of The Day but after this song she still had enough to blow everyone away
I've seen Nightwish live. Floors voice is incredibly strong and it didn't sound tired at all at the end of the show. Also, I think she hit every single note exactly the way she intended it to sound. That's very rare on a rock show, and extremely impressive.
@@carlkolthoff5402 I've heard it said that most singers sing what they can. Floor sings whatever she wants.
Song 13 of a 15 song set list, song of myself and last ride of the day came after this.
Nightwish found Floor at the end of a 🌈, she’s pure gold!❤️
also this is the third to the last song of the set, she has been singing for about an hour at this point......all hail the goddess
Incredible!!
She is the goddess, and Toumas is the modern day Mozart musical genius.
That was all we could wish for in a reaction, thank you so much! I really hope you're interested in doing more. This was only a fraction of what she is capable of. Not only is she technically amazing, she is a master in letting you feel the emotions. I've seen butch, tattooed guys tear up as soon as she starts to sing.
I am born -65 and tattooed and have said: "Hold my beer." a couple of times in the bar, and Floor has got me to tears multiple times.
Thank you for your singing examples of what she is doing. You’re the first I’ve seen who actually sings the parts. And your voice is amazing too!
The Drummer on this is Jukka Nevalainen. He's a human metronome. Floor is a vocal teacher herself and has exquisite understanding and control of those gold plated pipes of hers. It also helps that she's 6 feet tall or so. She has a large chest cavity for resonance and air storage. Throw in the insane amount of work she's put into her craft, and I bet she could take in enough air to swim to the bottom of the ocean if she holds her breath. They are all amazing musicians. By the time this song turned up in the set, they had been going for a while already and they still make a live performance sound like it was done in studio.
Best singer on the planet, this barely scratches the surface of what Floor Jansen can do!
I am not a vocalist by any means. I am a huge fan of Nightwish and I love watching these videos. I will say that you explain things very well. Not being a singer, I was intrigued at your analysis and education to the voice. With all of that your pure reaction to the wonder that is Floor Jansen just made it an extremely enjoyable thing to watch. I enjoyed it and I subscribe to it and I will watch more, well done! I do hope you do more Nightwish/floor Jansen videos to get the full scope of what this woman can do. Have a great weekend
Thank you Troy! From what I've been hearing there is so much more to hear and see from this band and I am super excited to hear more from them.
@@jessicasopranonotes Jess, I have had 3 opera singers in my family, my understanding of Floor's vocal position is that of a "dramatic Coloratura" or mezzo soprano ?
Can confirm seeing this band, this singer, and this particular song live is an experience beyond compare. I may have spent certain portions of it in tears both times.
I've seen them live 6 times. You never get used to it :) Sometimes it feels like a train is rolling over you.
I don't know more than a handful of singers who could do this. World's best rock singer.
"Do you hear that?"
"Hear what?"
"The ground is trembling..."
Looks into the horizon. "The Nightwish army... it's coming here!".
We have heard the Siren's Call! The Voice of the Valkyrie Queen has summoned us!
Indonesian Batallion reported Sir !! Ready to like and sub as appreciation for the reaction !!
Isle of wight (UK) reporting for Nightwish duty (loved the video btw)
Damn, it could be a mem by now ahah.
Btw, Belgian battalion reporting here o/
Wow what a reaction!! Floor is beyond amazing!! Please react to more Nightwish with Floor Jansen....The Nightwish Army is Here 😍
I've been listening to Nightwish since I was 14, I'm almost 30 now.. and saw the them for the first time 3 years ago. And I legit couldn't contain myself- I cried so much. I was shook to the core. My dad and I discovered them when I was a teen and its our one band we connect with together the most. I'm so thankful for them, they got me through some of the darkest moments in my life and I still listen to them now. I'm so happy I ran into your reaction video, it brought me back to how I first felt about them and I'm tearing up even as I write this comment. LOL I also love all your commentary and appreciation for them. They really are life changing.
It's always fun to watch someone experience Floor Jansen for the first time. Jess also brought a lot of fascinating insight to this reaction video and I learned so much! Subbed!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've seen al reactions to Ghost Love Score....yes, all but you are the first (skilled) reactor who is honestly saying you're jealous. Big props to you girl! Loved the whole video, great expressions.
They are all secretly jealous, even if they don't say it 😁
This was an excellent reaction. I've listened to this song and watched reaction videos too many times to count. Your comments were SO insightful and genuine, you are one of the best technical reviewers I've heard (and your singing sounds pretty incredible, too).
ahhh, thank you thank you! 🥺☺️
"Apparently their soloist is really good." I love hearing that in any intro to a Nightwish reaction - then counting the seconds to the jaw drop.
So, now you HAVE to do Floor and Henk phantom of the opera. Its my favorite rendition. That last note.. for the amount of time she holds it..
Fantastic reaction, you know your stuff. You should do a reaction on her singing Phantom of the opera with Henk Poort .
I just stumbled on this redaction video and thought, her next step would be Floor & Henk Phantom of the Opera but clearly I’m a week late to that party.
Cannot wait to see Nightwish in UK in May 2021
A reaction to Tarja & Marko's Phantom of the Opera would be great, too. The best Phantom of the Opera performance ever.
Ditto. Would love to see your take on Floor and Henk Phantom!! And yes, we know it's not an Opera, it's a musical.
Yes do phantom of the opera!!!! Beste Zanger’s.
I recommend two Nightwish/Floor Jansen songs that I think will appeal to you. "Shoemaker" is a song about the NASA scientist Eugene Shoemaker, whose ashes are scattered on the moon. In this song, Floor moves through some very technically difficult singing and finishes with a display of her opera capabilities: th-cam.com/video/Rjp_DfvJimg/w-d-xo.html
The second song, "Yours Is An Empty Hope" puts the opposite end of the Floor vocal spectrum on display as she goes into death metal mode. Pay close attention to Floor in the chorus as most reactors completely miss it as they don't think that a woman can sound like this: th-cam.com/video/DuwY1d-KIss/w-d-xo.html
Here are their tour dates with three shows in the U.S. nightwish.com/#tour
OK, let's make it three songs as Floor just dropped a cover of Heart's "Alone" which she recorded at home. If you like insanely high mixed belts, buckle up: th-cam.com/video/1fu-yP6q6Gk/w-d-xo.html
I think in "Yours is An Empty Hope" the problem is the sound mixing, her growls are so low in the mix both studio version and live version. The bassist's vocals is overshowding her because his voice is more high pitched in this case and so is louder than her lower pitched growls.
@@adecentdelinquent8986 Another explanation is that she is simply holding back and letting Marko's voice lead. We hear her crank up the volume at the end of the song. It's really noticeable in the Rock in Rio concert how loud her growl can actually be.
@@billattercliffe8655 I think youre right there (I didnt even know she was the one growling, never had seen the live version). She lets Marko take the lead intentionelly using the growl to give power to the chorus. I'm 100% not a pro dont even know how to sing, is just my feeling there.
"Oh, I wanna be there so bad!"
Me: I KNOW! ME TOO!
since covid19 recently i'm watching youtube more often and just find out the fact most musician or band from Nordic-Slavic are the most underrated music and one of the best in the world. besides mainstream artist in music industry such as US & UK
Why do Nordic-Slavic musicians and composers sound so great? It's because the blood of heroes and legends runs in their veins.
Best Nightwish reaction I have seen in a long time. Can't wait for your future videos.
Nightwish Army, US Regiment, Pennsylvania Battalion reporting for duty. Welcome Jess to the best symphonic metal on Earth!
Your mission is to go play Nightwish at GOP bullshit "Trump won" meetings
Hooraa to you from Nightwish Army, Latvian Regiment, Vidzeme Battalion! 😂👍
I'm so excited! I can't believe I didn't even know this music existed! So thank you for being so welcoming ☺️☺️
@@jessicasopranonotes I was wondering if you were going to stick narrowly to a genre. If not, well...you're going for a trip. The Nightwish & Floor fans are going to steer you to all the best stuff in this genre. And they are genre-free and will also show you stuff like, oh, this

Wisconsin Battalion here. Nice to see we're coming together!
Opera singers have the best reactions to this particular son.g
Floor's magic is that she doesn't have "the mix" - she seems to have a blend control that allows exactly the amount of chest in her mix that she wants. There are different mix qualities in this song and as one listens to more songs, you can't help but realize how exceptional her mix control is.
This was everything I ever wanted in a Nightwish vocal reaction! Thank you! You picked up on so much. Floor Jansen is otherworldly. She has classical training, and can also growl (see Yours is an Empty Hope). I recommend checking out Storytime, and Song of Myself - each Nightwish song you listen to will surprise you! Hope to see more NW reactions from you :)
Check out her and hank port singing phantom of the opera on beste zangers
It's Henk Poort
@@erwindegroot8760 Dat staat er toch :-)
Just start from the beginning with Villa Lied and work up to Phantom. Floor has shown so much more in technique and variety with her voice than just the grand finale.
Every song she did on that show was brilliant.
@@mykindamakeup And every song made the person she was singing to cry. EVERYONE CRIES!
@@mykindamakeup Villa Lied is a must!
Of the various youtubers commenting on this song you have by far the best voice.
Thank you so much!
Floor...is an Incredible Talent. The Best!
I came for the NW reaction, but I must say you have a very beautiful voice and I enjoyed the snippets of it that I heard. Great job in offering the technical insights you offered, too.
Awesome reaction! Seems like you are Chase Carneson of Opera singers 😂
(NW reaction people will understand...it's a good thing, don't worry 😘)
Btw. That experience is called *Floorgasm™*
I’m not 10 minutes into her reaction, and I already wanna see her collab with Chase AND Julia!
My first time watching a full performance by Floor. I don’t listen to metal music but my friend does and Floor is his favorite singer. I knew she was versatile but I was shocked at those belts at the end.
I think I’m starting to become a fan
I have seen them live twice, even when they play small venues, the performance is just as epic. I highly recommend it
very educated reaction!Good job!
Jess: i think she has some really major pipes. Floor: Hold my beer.......
Armor plated pipes.
@@Halloween111 Adamantium pipes
dutch people love their beer.. does'nt suprise me 🤣
Singers sing what they can
Floor sings what she wants
Actually . . Floor sings what you want.(I want, you want, we all want the same. Hear Floor sing.)
I was there at that concert and it was an amazing experience. I've seen Nightwish live several times and they are always top-notch.
Subscribed and I must say how enjoyable your reaction was, The nightwish Army knows how good Floor is , From the same show (Wacken open air 2013) you must see Storytime next there is an operatic part about 3/4 into it . I know this will tickle your fancy. PS she just released a cover of Heart's "Alone". you will be amazed
I've seen them. It's like a roller coaster lifetime... loving, hurting, crying, screaming, swooning, peace and punching the air like an idiot. I've seen a LOT of 'legends', many in their prime, but nothing, nothing like Nightwish live.
I loooved your reaction - the knowledge, passion, and admiration were great! Subbed!
Thanks and welcome! 🤗
@@jessicasopranonotes fun fact: you can find a video where a guy put all the endings from all concert of Nightwish with Floor. And floor give a comment and got over 2k likes 😉 th-cam.com/video/6qDrKoZ62wQ/w-d-xo.html
I must have watched this performance a thousand times and I still get the same goosebumps all over me as the first time. As a band there above all and as a singer floor is a goddess x your journey with them has only just begun that believe it or not is just scratching the surface 👍loved your reaction so I've subbed x
Thanks Rob! I too get chills after rewatching this performance and I've watched it at least 20 times since uploading this video lol
I'm so glad you enjoyed that moment of calm in the music. A lot of people who react to this song tend to get confused by it like ''is the song over?'' lol. But it's a beautiful part of the music that was composed for an effect!! I really hope you continue diving into nightwish! This is just the tip of the iceberg of what this band has to offer. A lot of people react to romanticide second, so that is a good option. That one can show a totally different mood and set of abilities. My personal favorite performance from this show is Storytime, so I hope you'll watch that one sometime too. :)
Great recommendations, thanks! And I LOVED the slow part. It sounded beautiful and was the perfect moment to give Floor and the band a quick break.
Please continue the Nightwish journey. It’s a life changing experience!
Floor can sing anything from opera to death growls. She is super versatile!
About a year ago she was on a Dutch Tv show called Beste Zangers and she did 6 solo songs and 2 duets. She sang in 4 different languages. She did a German opera song called Vilja Lied and she did Phantom of the Opera with the original Dutch Phantom Henk Poort. It recently hit 10 million views. The night it was aired it broke the internet.
Also check out her personal YT channel. She has been releasing covers cause she misses singing so much. 1st cover was Let it Go (Frozen) and today she released Alone (Heart). And yes her breath control is ridiculous. According to Floor she has the lungs of a diver.
Looking at your reaction you just experienced your first Floorgasm 🤘🏻❤️
I typically go on TH-cam to watch a video here and there without even being logged in, so I never subscribed to any channels. I kept telling myself some day I would log in and subscribe to some channels, but months and years kept going by without me doing so. Well, today is that day. I logged in and subscribed immediately after the video finished! Your review was incredible and I look forward to spending time on your channel and watching more of them -- especially if you review more from Floor Jansen and Nightwish!
Wow, thank you Christy!! You have no idea how much that means, so nice to meet you 🤗
Love this. A reactor that knows how to break the vocals down 👏👏👏👏
You have just stumbled into an amazing rabbit hole, welcome in.
The army is marching...prepare thyself!
Chilean Division ready!!
Doesn’t take us long 🤪

Great explanations of the technical aspects of
Floor’s vocals.
I saw them live on a trip to Vienna about a year ago. Floor was UNBELIEVABLE…as was the entire band. Truly incredible live performers.
Great reaction! GLS is the gateway drug for NW and Floor Jansen. Her versatility is astounding. Be sure to check out all of Floor's performances on the Dutch show "Beste Zangers".
GATWAY DRUG.. HAHAHA IT SURE IS
I’m pretty sure Gabriel will be along shortly to give the Nightwish low down, great reaction and breakdown, the concert was in Germany at the wacken festival, it was an epic Nightwish performance, just think you have not even stretched the surface yet. And down the NW rabbit hole we go again 🤪
He beat you by 8 minutes, hahaha !!!
Lol I noticed just after I pressed the send button lol
Your favorite part is also my favorite part. It's not just that she belted it, but the choice of notes there was just stunning... still gives me the chills every time I hear her sing that part..!
It's always fun to watch Oprea Singers enjoy this for the first time because you don't just enjoy the music but also have an appreciation for the structure and technique that goes into Nightwish's music.
You will be getting some subscribers from this. Great reaction from a vocal expert. Start the bunny trail of watching Floor sing on TH-cam. It's endless joy!
I avoid reaction videos unless they're by people who might have something interesting to add, and you didn't disappoint! Nice job!
Two words: World Class.
Floor is simple one of the best in the world if not the best vocalist.
I have watched all the reactions, and I gotta say yours is the best and the one that resonates the most!
Probably also because I studied classical music too, and I know how much grinding you singers have to go through!
and all of that is showing in your analysis 🤗
Oh hi! Yes, studying music is so much work and I always meeting people who have studied it. Thank you so much for the compliments, very sweet ☺️
Congrats on your first of many Floorgasms. Enjoy more from Wacken 2013! 🔥🤙
Fantastic reaction and welcome to the Nightwish rabbit hole. This woman (band) will never cease to amaze.
Floor Jansen ....... Queen of the Valkyries
Girl!... you have GOT to check out “Poet and the Pendulum” ....trust me, you won’t be disappointed.
I agree, but I think it also depends if/how she wants to travel this journey. I think you appreciate PatP much more if you know the back story, history and the people behind it.
@@gunmetal2890 True.
I was there in 2013 , and i saw the godess for the first time , this is only a part of she can do , the most versatile singer in the world, her voice and breathing control is insane , if you want a crazy belting try" everdream " same concert , for her versatility and for now , she released today a cover of " alone " from heart , and you can check also her prestation on dutch show " best zangers" she did 7 or 8 songs but "phantom of the opera" with henk poort is the highlight of the show. Greetings from Portugal.
I love that you actually sing some notes showing exact examples instead of just talking about them! Keep up the great work!
05:15 Congratulations on your first Floorgasm!
Private 1st Class Beth: Nightwish Army, Andalucia Regiment.
This is probably my favorite reaction for this song. 👌🏼
We’re gonna need more chairs army incoming
Great reaction. Now, it's time for the traditional "Welcome to Heavy Metal" reaction to Pisces from Jinjer and the their lead singer, Tatiana Shmaylyuk. Yes, it's been done to death, and yet, people never get sick of seeing reactions to that video. Check it out to find out why.
Since I first watched your reaction years ago, I've come back to it over 20 times. Your reaction was and is priceless. Cheers!
Your hair seems to have mind of it’s own haha
Perfect for headbanging. I love how it’s bobbing around at the sligthest head movement :D
The "My Fall" part you were referencing is the part that sent shivers down my spine the first time I heard GLS, so much raw power.
What an awesome reaction, btw, full of insight, and enjoyment. Well done.
The best GLS reaction in some time. Welcome to the Nightwish rabbit hole, that so many have fallen into. Really appreciate your genuine reaction and insight.
Yes! That was definitely the most incredible performance I've seen. Just to see Nightwish live with Floor upfront would be the greatest ever!!! I'm so glad you reacted to this video! Love your reactions, would truly like to see you perform also.😊
Lucky you they tour all around the world, absolutely worth seeing life, not only they put a great show, they have an amazing energy, they make you feel so welcome, it's a must see for sure❤️
