      I am scratching my head with all these comments on every single Nightwish clip. Floor is an excellent versatile singer, a perfect match for CURRENT Nightwish.
      Tarja is an excellent operatic, theatrical singer, not versatile but extremely good, better than Floor at her operatic vocal specialization. Her studio version of "Ghost Love Score" is the best version of the song hands down. Because it was written for her and her voice.
      Old Nightwish with Tarja are my favourite too. Heavier, darker, with Tarjas voice and a lot of incredible songs. Floor is a very capable singer, but Tarja's voice still sounds better with the old material. A match made in heaven

      I actually am starting to like this version as much as Wacken. Floor is more ethereal in the very beginning. Kate Bush like with the little crescendos. A lullaby.
      Which amplifies the ending even more. So even if it's not as great as the Wacken finish, the contrast is greater.

    Symphonic metal is in my opinion the best music. It is tenderness and brutality. It is sorrow and anger. It is euphoric catharsis of deep anguish. I always envision things like The battle of Dorylaeum when the soldiers held the line for hours under archer fire to protect the non-combatants. Or during the great depression a father eating moldy bread at work for lunch so he can bring home milk or eggs.
    It is the music of poetry.

    Fun fact, at the time of this video, Floor had only been part of the band for about 2-3 months (I don't know the exact date it was recorded, but it's from 2012 and she started october 2012). She replaced the original vocalist mid-tour on very short notice (it's said to have been about 2 days) and this video was most likely published to show the fans that they could actually pull it off, and to show Nightwish had only grown stronger by the switch.
    The wacken 2013 version of the same song appears even more polished as she's had more time to grow into her role.

      When you see her doing this in Buenos Aires 2012, when Floor had just begun with them, notice the enraptured expression on Tuomas' face. Already Floor was expressing his composition better than anyone ever before, making his musical vision live on a new level.

    The really mind blowing thing to me is that she had only been performing this song for about 2 months at this point. She was an emergency replacement Singer, in the middle of a tour with 48 hours to learn the songs, and this was 2 months later. She did it nearly this well almost immediately from what I can tell. Just crazy talented.

      True, the Wacken Open Air performance was more polished, but Floor had only been with the band for less than three months when this was recorded. The "Floor ending" came as a surprise just about everyone (except Empuu, the lead guitarist, who was grinning from ear to ear.) See him at 13:55

      @j.lahtinen7525 5 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      I'm of two minds about these two performances - I can't say which one I prefer. Both have their own strengths; in this one, I LOVE how the crowd sang along with the guitar solo. It just added so much to the atmosphere. Best crowd ever, in this show. In the Waken version, the bit with the crowd chanting works better, because in that version, Floor starts the chanting with her own "Hey, Hey!" chants, and not just clapping - that works better, I think. The stage and crowd in the Waken performance is bigger, and the production value is even better than in this video. But I think Floor, vocally, is equally good in both.

    • @josefo33
      @josefo33 5 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      I would say that this Buenos Aires performance is more emotional, is more about the music rather than the show, that's why, for me, it is the best Ghost Love Score performance of the band, they are enjoying themselves, they are feeling the music to the core of their bones, I agree that Floor is a little bit unpolished, but man she sung her heart out.

    So I will get that request ball rolling with some suggestions; Romanticide Live at Wacken 2013 (she goes even higher!) The Poet and the Pendulum Live at Wembley for an absolute masterpiece performance by the entire band.

    Thank you for your great reaction Beth! As more people here have pointed out, there is another official live version of this song, from the Wacken 2013 concert. I can imagine that it would not be a priority to do another reaction video of the same song. But if you would find the time, I strongly recommend you do - and compare that version to the one you just saw. You may wonder why, since there are so many songs that have multiple live versions online. Well, in the video you have watched, Floor Jansen was only in the band for two months, after she had to step in for their previous singer unplanned. The Wacken concert is about eight months after this version and for most fans is the ultimate rendition of this song. Floor has perfected her vocal performance whilst on tour, especially on this song that is her personal favorite. This for me is perhaps her biggest talent, the ability to continue to improve on an already applauded performance. Although I would loooove to name all the points on which her Wacken vocal performance is better, it will not do that here (yet ;) since that may take away the incentive for you to do a comparison. I can only say that as a vocal coach, you will see a big difference :)

    The strings are actually recorded by the London Philharmonia Orchestra. The same orchestra that recorded the LOTR soundtracks, so I’m not surprised you made that connection 😂. Also: if you want her more rock sounding stuff: Ghost River (she growls) and Romanticide are great ones. Both are live at Wacken 2013. Another is The Poet and the Pendulum Live at Wembley 2015. This one is dear to Tuomas’ heart because he basically committed suicide in song form due to what had happened with the departure of the first singer, Tarja. The one who you most likely thought of. The current singer is Floor Jansen, and in this video she had only been with the band for two weeks. Ghost Love Score is one of her favourites to sing.

    • @FairsleyDifference
      @FairsleyDifference 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      mangalover0149 Poet & the Pendulum has nothing to do with Tarja. Tuomas only claimed it did after legal documents came out in the press showing that the open letter “firing” her actually did no such thing (as her departure had been negotiated and contractually defined over a year before, with only a press conference remaining until it took effect) and was full of lies about her pay, riders and health, all designed to kill the post-Nightwish deals she had made that were predicated on an amicable split from the band. And of course the rampant misogyny towards her and racism towards her husband in the letter didn’t help with the fan backlash either, so he tried a bit of revisionist history by pretending he wrote this tender song about a woman whose career he just went to the mat trying to kill. Bye Bye Beautiful is the song actually about Tarja, and is much more appropriately hateful and contemptuous.

    Great reaction and explanation of her vocals. Floor spends a lot of time using more modern techniques rather than classical.
    I really would like to see your explanations for:
    - "Your is an Empty Hope" (live at Wembley), not only because of the growls she does there, but also because of her overall agressive singing in it, including some belts with distortion on top (or that's what I was told it was, but I haven't studied singing, so...) And you'll also get to hear the bassist, who also has an incredible voice.
    - "7 Days to the Wolves" (live at Barona Arena); which is a very emotional song, and she expresses a full range of emotions in it, and different ways of singing. The high notes (which, as far as I can tell are not head voice, but strong and beefy) are incredible in this song.

    Seeing them live in Milwaukee in 2016 remains one of the great memories of my life. Love seeing Beth's incredulous moments, like, "Wow, did Floor just do that?!"

  • @mikoske

    Great reaction Beth! To give Floor even more credit, this song is usually the last song of the set, so before this there were roughly two hours of singing! She is the perfect fit for Nightwish, I was at their tour finishing concert a month ago and hearing her perform this was absolutely amazing. Their song Greatest Show On Earth (Live Tampere) is great, oh the emotions when the whole arena of 10000+ people sings together "we were here!" Nightwish's original singer Tarja Turunen is worth a listen, too. For example Phantom of the Opera (live End of an Era.)
    One thing to remember doing Nightwish reactions, always choose live version. The band is Finnish, Floor is Dutch and the third singer. Thanks, keep on doing these!

    I just loved this reaction. It's one hell of a song, and one hell of a performance, but the way you reacted was great. Floor is quite a singer for sure, and until 2 weeks ago I'd never heard of her. Great analysis of her technique too .. keep up the awesome work on the channel :)

  • @avex13
    @avex13 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    One of the most amazing things about Floor's performance in this song (and in many other Nightwish songs), is that these songs where never meant for her. They were written with a different voice in mind, and she just made them hers in a couple of weeks.

  • @johnsoma6485
    @johnsoma6485 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Funny, the singer you were describing in the beginning was Tarja (tar-i-ya). This is Floor (flor), who is trained in pop, rock, classical, opera, theater, and vaudeville.

  • @Darnaguen
    @Darnaguen 5 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    The one trained in lied singing is actually their first vocalist, Tarja Turunen, but that's an easy mistake to make for a Nightwish rookie. :) This one is Floor Jansen and while she also has classical training, she on her part majored in musical theatre, giving her perhaps more versatility by default. I believe she's a dramatic soprano (appropriately for someone who looks like a viking goddess), so if she had chosen to go full-on classical she might have lost the lightness and agility she can display with ease.
    But yeah, she's incredible -- and a vocal coach herself! :)

    • @BethRoars

    • @Darnaguen
      @Darnaguen 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      She can do that too if she wants to, make no mistake, but since she can do basically whatever she wants with her voice she chooses what suits the occasion best. :D

      @@BethRoars Yeah if you listen the band with Tarja, she's full classical all the time. It sounds cool, but it's kind of exhausting on the ears IMO XD Usually the go to clip for Tarja is Nightwish's cover of Phantom of the Opera form their End of an Era concert. It's a great showcase of her voice as well as the bassist Marco's, who don't get to hear in this song :( Marco is boss :)

      @TerranigmaQuintet 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Her versatility is mostly due to her being taught and singing using the CVT(complete vocal technique) method, which she came into contact with during her Rockademie days. This allows her to switch between those styles so seamlessly, due to sheer practice/experience. ( At that time it was fairly new)

    Your facial expressions made this reaction worth watching. I have watched a few of your videos and I almost think by hearing you that you may be able to sing this amazing piece. It is truely something not everyone can pull off. Thanks for the great videos I will obviously become a sub to your channel. I am a metalhead but was trained in classical first so I appreciate this performance. I am amazed everytime I listen to Nightwish. I hear something I missed every time I listen to it again.
