The decades tour wich this is from had one hell of a setlist with many older songs from the Tarja era, wich are generally a bit darker than the later stuff and Floor did a wonderful job making them her own. This show from BA is just as fantastic as Wacken. Great energy, crazy crowd and absolutely epic backdrop/screens. Not to mention Floor is wearing her most "valkyrie" outfit ever 😍
This whole Buenos Aires show just ROCKS!!! All older songs from mostly Tarja's era (some from Anette and some Floor's) for the "Decades" Tour celebrating Nightwish's over 2 decades long career!!!
This concert was part of the Decades tour where they revived many of the older songs and Floor made them hers. In that sense it was a bit like the Wacken 2013 concert where none of the songs were written for Floor. The version of "Ghost Love Score" from this concert is just as epic as the Wacken concert.
It's classical. Classical metal that no man has ever heard before or after Nightwish. Thanks for reacting to Nightwish. Love that you love the best band in the world of today.
Glad to hear you're thinking about doing this concert in total. There's a couple off this concert that are in heavy rotation on my playlist, that crowd was fantastic, the band was on point, visuals were outstanding, sound outstanding! Unfortunately the song about a soldier having his fill of war is all to poignant these days. Another great, underplayed song. Ty Cosmic and the patreon who requested it. This concert was another very special one. ❤ and ✌️ all!
I love this song. I think this was recommended due to your feeling regarding war. his is definitely a statement by Tuomas on his feelings of killing for country from a soldiers perspective.
This is the closest thing Nightwish has to a full on anti-war protest song, as it examines the horrors of war from a soldier’s perspective. Also one of my personal favorite songs !!! This song has a clear narrator, an unnamed soldier suffering with guilt and shame at the actions he’s taken in war. The song begins with a simple statement that immediately begins to lay the groundwork for what the title of the song means. (Today I killed, he was just a boy, eight before him, I knew them all.) Meaning this is the 9th man the soldier has killed. The chorus of the song is just devastating, delivering a rapid fire desperate plea, with the soldier planning to desert even though they know they will be killed for it. (Run and fight for life, hold on tight, this ain’t my fight.) The second verse talks about how killing another person is something that happens in an instant but sticks with you forever. (Devil’s instant, my eternity) Marko’s part then begins, which seems to represent the darkest thoughts of the soldier. He talks about envying the nine soldiers and their blood now lines his path, and that he can’t take it anymore, even being labeled a coward means nothing. Later, Marko as the soldier states that they will march away from their duty until the dawn brings them peace, and they welcome capital punishment for desertion with open arms, becoming the tenth man down. (Tenth patriot at the gallows pole). Or something like that ,.... Great reaction as always my good sir !!!!!! NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘
Thanks! The entire Buenos Aires setlist is amazing and it reaches way back in time. I'm always blown away by the energy of the Argentina fans, as well as their Nightwish IQ. It must be so much fun to play for them.
She really is something else, and the way they combine metal and operatic voices, like this is pure genius ❤ Annette is not operatic but still a great singer, and for me her version of Meadows of heaven, is an absolute feel good piece of awesomeness❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for reacting to this song. It always brings out deep feelings in me and, again, I love it that this band makes you think, in almost every single song.
Now this is how you do a song about war. A soldier hopelessly outnumbered, his comrades falling all around him. War is hell, and this song portrays that perfectly. Much love Cosmic!
A watch party for this Buenos Aries concert would be fantastic, the whole concert has so many of my favourite versions of songs on it, in particular "Elvenpath and Elvenjig", then "I want my Tears Back" before it even starts Floor is flirting with the crowd and just exudes sassy confidence and has so much fun on stage. 10th Man Down is an older track from Tarja's time with NW but Floor and Marco simply own it on stage. Big Love Bro
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody Not doing too badbut am struggling with exhaustion ATM, it is affecting my mental health, starting councelling again in 10days, been lucky and have got my old councellor who I get on with. Have to say Nightwish has got me through a lot of negative shit in my life.
dude, I feel that. My work life has been kicking my ass, but we are built different and can make it thru. Are you on any social medias like facebook?@@billtbodger
Tuomas and Emppu are the only ones on the stage that were members of the bend when this one came out. It was before Marco joined, with Sami Vänskä on bass guitar, Tapio Wilska (Fintroll Obscene Eulogy) on back vocals, Tarja Turunen on vocals and Jukka Navalainen on drums. I believe this was Over the Hills and Far Away EP B side only, wasn't on any of the albums.
If you want to hear more of the amazing extent of Tuomas Holopainen's genius, you must listen to the second CD of Nightwish's Human:||:Nature album. You have never heard anything so deep and ravishingly beautiful.
This is one of my favourite songs, I'm so glad you posted it today as I really needed it after the horrific and heartbreaking day I have had. Thank you.
I have a recommendation, it's not quite Nightwish, but but it is very much related: The Gathering by Delain (ft. Marko!!!) I am surprised it is not reacted to more often, he brings so much energy to that song.😊 Also, please keep the Nightwish reactions coming. Your videos have become part of my nightly chill routine (because I have no social life lol) - they're my favorite.
Love this song, great reaction. If you want to see Floor doing her great ending for ghost love score for one of the first times (she said sje did it first in south america) than che pit the 2012 buenos Aires video.
One of my favourite Nightwish songs, especially with Floor singing. Tarja is good, but Floor's versatility is unmatched. She and Marko are amazing together. (I saw them perform "Ave Maria" at Raskasta Joulua a few years ago, and it was so beautiful.) But of course, I have to say that no two voices blend so well as Heidi and JP in that Dark Sarah song you reacted to. 😅
This is one of the songs I prefer Tarja as lead. I think for me I prefer her approach to Floors belts which I find a little jarring but then I have always loved this song since release. What I do love with this version though is the slight tweaks in the music side of it.
This is by far my least favorite song in this setlist, somehow sticks out like a sore thumb in the otherwise pure greatness of a concert. Not that it's bad, per se, but it's not the same caliber.
Well we Nightwish fans we are one big family,Marko is missed terribly but we have a lot songs and concerts with him,so happy you love Nightwish Sir
Dude, its been our absolute pleasure to get to know you through this journey and to welcome you as one of the Nightwish Army 🤘
Agreed!
You all have been just so special to me. I truly love getting to know all of you.

This would be a great concert to look at, all together
Definetely 👍

Look to Deichbrand or Hellfest 2022. Floor can all Nightwish songs alone.. only my opionon

Its so powerful.
My favourate nightwish together with elvenjigg/elvenpath😊
👍👍 FLOOR JANSEN 👍👍
I like this powerful anti-war anthem a lot. Unfortunately way too actual here in today's Europe. 😎👍
Next: ‘Getshemane’ please😀👍🏼
We are happy you are now part of the Nightwish Army!
Nightwish is always on Point. I've been getting into Lorna Shore lately. Never thought I would like Death Metal, but they are awesome.
Lorna is pretty cool, lately Septicflesh has been my go to

Yea, this was a powerful song! Much love friend.

Amazing how every Nightwish song sounds the same, but very different. You never know what you're going to get, but somehow you do. Pure Genius.
I remember seeing this live in London during that tour. It was amazing.
one of my absolute favourites, highly underrated imho
Yet another banger from the band. Not heard often enough though.
Thanks Cosmic
Much love friend.
Now this is how you do a song about war. A soldier hopelessly outnumbered, his comrades falling all around him. War is hell, and this song portrays that perfectly. Much love Cosmic!
completely agree! Appreciate you Dusk

Such a vivid song and lyrics.

Awesome indeed.
Iam with You Starseed with a mission of connection and love ❤🦋🕊🥳🐬🌴💪🔥 love and light from Holland 🦁🪷🌷
much love friend!
Hi, very beautiful reaction
much love friend.
Nice to see you again.
Greeting from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Hey you! Much love!
If you want to hear more of the amazing extent of Tuomas Holopainen's genius, you must listen to the second CD of Nightwish's Human:||:Nature album. You have never heard anything so deep and ravishingly beautiful.
Thanks for this. I've never heard this song.
Ooo I saw this tour in Baltimore! Great show!
thats amazing. You from Baltimore?
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody Yes, I live in downtown Baltimore :)
This is one of my favourite songs, I'm so glad you posted it today as I really needed it after the horrific and heartbreaking day I have had. Thank you.
I have noticed recently that some reactors were doing this song. I waited till you did it so We can react together. Never heard this one before.
yooo thanks friend! Hope you are well.
Floor is just another instrument that Tuomas can use. Love Marko's OH Yeah
I have a recommendation, it's not quite Nightwish, but but it is very much related: The Gathering by Delain (ft. Marko!!!) I am surprised it is not reacted to more often, he brings so much energy to that song.😊
Also, please keep the Nightwish reactions coming. Your videos have become part of my nightly chill routine (because I have no social life lol) - they're my favorite.
Yo absolutely! I Appreciate the kind words so much! This journey has been so fun to be apart of.
Have you heard sing to me by Delain, Marko is awesome in that too and video 😂
Hey Cos! Thanks as always! It maybe time to to Beauty OF the Beast live Amsterdam with Tarja.
ohhhh yea!!!! That sounds amazing.
Awwww, this beautiful and the same time sad song 🖤❤️. The most anti war song what Tuomas has written.
Thank you Cosmo for this rection 🙏❤️🙏🖤🙏❤️
Love this song, great reaction.
If you want to see Floor doing her great ending for ghost love score for one of the first times (she said sje did it first in south america) than che pit the 2012 buenos Aires video.
One of my favourite Nightwish songs, especially with Floor singing. Tarja is good, but Floor's versatility is unmatched. She and Marko are amazing together. (I saw them perform "Ave Maria" at Raskasta Joulua a few years ago, and it was so beautiful.)
But of course, I have to say that no two voices blend so well as Heidi and JP in that Dark Sarah song you reacted to. 😅
🖤🤘🏻
🤗🍒🤘🏻 again Wolff, well done
Much love Mars
One of my all time NW favorites and one if even the only one that I like more the original recorded version, as superb performance this is though!
This was great.
Floor dressed like Aphrodite, warrior for love!
You need to check out the early albums with these songs in, and Tarja singing. So you know where they began.
Man im glad i found your reactions. yall share the same face i made hearing this stuff for the first time. I recommend Safety by reliqa
ohhh you got it.
This is one of the songs I prefer Tarja as lead. I think for me I prefer her approach to Floors belts which I find a little jarring but then I have always loved this song since release. What I do love with this version though is the slight tweaks in the music side of it.
And it's not even one of their most played tracks or one that's been reacted to particularly often, all of their music is just that good......
The thing is, they won't tour with the next album. Possibly never? Maybe not, but it's quite certain not in 2024.
🔥💥🤘🇳🇱🤘💥🔥
I know that everybody love Floor but this song belong to Tarja. With Tarja this song is more powerfull - you should check her version.
I prefer the Tarja's Version
This could be a theme - on the subject of WAR - have you done any Sabaton?? There's a FLoor conneciton so it is a logical next step.
I have indeed
This is by far my least favorite song in this setlist, somehow sticks out like a sore thumb in the otherwise pure greatness of a concert. Not that it's bad, per se, but it's not the same caliber.
TARJA'S version with Nightwish, is WAY BETTER THAN THIS!!
No it's not. Floor's the best vocalist they could ever get. Tarja's voice is so annoying
