I was at Wembley with my son to see them. Absolutely brilliant! I saw people of all ages, from small children, to people into their seventies, maybe even eighties. I'm in my mid sixties, and it's the first time I have ever had tears in my eyes at a rock show. That's the power of this band❤🤘
Me too and the age range was a really good thing to see. They did manage to triple-book my seat - but I and a young lady got upgraded as a result so all good. Fantastic show, Floor excellent but maybe a little below par for her (still better than anyone else). Emppu up to his tricks; Floor getting Tuomas to sing for a couple of seconds; pyro incredible (and very hot) and even though I was expecting it, the explosion at the end of Greatest Show still made me jump, it was so loud. Unforgettable and the best concert I've been to.
Was there too at Wembley on Monday.. it definitely was a wide mix of people in the crowd. Floor was unbelievably good.. You have high expectations having seen all these performances on TH-cam.. Floor and Nightwish did not disappoint one bit
Same, first time for my wife and I (I'm 58), near the front and not far from the middle. We both had high expectations and were both blown away! And yes, we never expected the pyro to be so hot - that's not something that comes across in the videos, for sure. Glad You Got Your Tears Back Freddie - thank the mermaids you turned loose.
So I saw them on Sunday and even with the absolute highest expectations I was still mind blown! It was a special evening though. The first show of the EU tour. Floor looked so happy and relieved to be back on stage after the previous few weeks. You could feel even before the start that the whole crowd was quite emotionally charged after those weeks. Her rendition of sleeping sun literally had me in tears it was so emotionally loaded and then at the end of the song we saw why. I love how Jukka and Toumas supported her. But she took a minute or 2 and came back full throttle. I got the feeling that she was just blasting out a lot of weight off her shoulders after that. It was magical and emotional. This is sleeping sun from that night.
Yes , just saw the link. Her vulnerability just makes her even more perfect and adorable, if that is at all possible. Glad Tuesday’s rendition at Birmingham was more ‘normal’ , I’m not sure I could have taken Floor cracking up without doing so myself.
@@_R8x_ to me it felt like the rest of the show was somehow therapeutic for her. Letting heavy emotions out. I already had tears in my eyes before it happened just form the song. Man the ovation when she came back out for (ironically) I want my tears back was insane
You simply must go to a Nightwish concert! You are already deeply addicted - but experiencing them LIVE - is a once in a lifetime experience - each time. Floor's powers are incredible - and Emppu walking around, talking to audience, the others in the band, and having so much fun with Floor all the time. Their interaction in the band are something you have to see, to really understand that special bond they have together. And as usual - a super reaction from you - you are lost forever in the Nightwish Universe - just like the rest of us!! 😂
Completely agree, Kim. When I left my first Nightwish show in May, I said "I can die happy now." But I'm not ready until I see a few more shows, so if nothing else, I have a reason to hang on!! Emppu is, seriously, the glue on stage. His happiness and joy in playing is infectious, and he visits every single player during the show. I absolutely love him!
My friend I agree with you 100%! It will happen one day and you will never hear the end of it LOL!!!! I want to be on that Nightwish high in person and I am sure it will last a lifetime!
I'm 70 years old and I was at Wembley Arena on Monday night 21/11 and Floor was simply glowing, it was the 3rd time I've seen them live with Floor at Wembley and the 5th overall since back in 2005/6 with Tarja, it never changes they are just phenomenal. You have to find a way to see them in person sweet lady, you will never regret it. Keep the reactions coming, love from Scotlands Nightwish Army❤🤘
Floor defines everything that is beautiful about this world. NIghtwish at Wembley on Monday night were amazing and Floor's performance simply defied belief.
You fall more in love with Nightwish each song you listen to and we fall more in love with you each song you react to! For me they're the best live band out there. Have been very lucky to see them quite a few times by now (also this week) and there's more to come (also for you!). Love this song and love your t-shirt!
Saw Nightwish live this Monday at this venue (Wembley Arena). It was electric. As unbelievable as it may seem, they are actually even better live than these videos suggest. I'm not just saying that. I was completely blown away, despite already having high expectations. Definitely go see them if you ever get a chance.
Saw them at Wembley on Monday. Floor was simply other worldly! Couple of weeks after major surgery and she was unbelievable. Think her voice is getting even better! ❤
Call her Floor "Lungs of Steel" Jansen 🔥🤘🤘🔥 her breath control is insane, and the fact that these new concerts seem to be a lot more lively and intense after her cancer diagnosis and subsequent announcement that he was already cancer-free it's so wholesome
I so love your reactions to Floor and Nightwish. But, today, I can ‘pull one ‘ over you. Tuesday saw Jane and Abi with me at the Birmingham concert. Yes, even with recovery from surgery and the no doubt emotional upset arising from her diagnosis live Floor is AMAZING. This is a very appropriate track. We all readily shudder (in the best and happiest way imaginable) before the incomparable Miss Jansen. Nightwish are an amazing band, but, somehow, Floor just takes it up to another level.
As many others are saying in the comments, you positively have to see them LIVE. I was fortunate to see them in May 2022 in Los Angeles. It was roughly 2K like minded Nightwish fans who were seeing them for the first time.We were all talking before the concert asking each other to pinch us in case we were in some sort of fever dream. And after suffering through the opening act, they hit the stage and they didn't disappoint. They are still just as jovial with one another. Smiling and giving one another encouragement. Floor was just as you would expect. An absolute goddess. A night I WILL NEVER FORGET.
Shudder Before the Beautiful live at Wembley… one of the best concert openings I’ve ever seen.😱 Ladies and gentleman…start your engines. The show has begun.😀🤘 What a “blow your mind” way to start a show!
Shudder before the Beautiful is referring to the amazement and wonder we (The Travelers) should all feel regarding the natural world. It is all around us including the solar system and universe, which we are all a part of while traveling amongst the stars on this small spec of blue. I agree with you. The vocals should be slightly louder in the mix from this show. The bass is just a bit to loud with dampens the overall sound a little. This was from the Nightwish 2015 record, "Endless Forms Most Beautiful". many of the songs from this record revolve around a theme of wonder and appreciation for the natural world all around us. As you probably know from other comments, Nightwish members are very much nature lovers and ponder deeply about the universe, how it works, and our place within its grand workings. Nightwish, Nuff Said!!!! NWSU 🤘😎🤘.
What a way to open a show. What a woman. What a Phenomenal group of musicians. Ladies and gentlemen you are privileged in my humble opinion to be watching and listening to the best live band fronted by the best vocalist on Earth. Thank you for allowing me to relive my first time watching and hearing this epic Nightwish composition through you Jynger. Thank you. Paul - Nightwish Army England UK Division 🙏😊👍❤️
Thank you for letting me hear my absolute favorite song by Nightwish at 5am it gets this old Metal rock head heart started for life on the farm! ( of course I can’t wait to hear my positively absolute favorite Nightwish song on your next reaction! I know you like your music a little dark aaaaannnd visually stunning may I suggest, Noise Nightwish Official music video from their Human Nature album released April 10 2020( of course another masterpiece) I think your love of dark, makeup lyrics visuals and message I think it will be your absolute favorite Nightwish song! Until the Next one of course! On your Sabaton Christmas Truce reaction my I suggest you do “ Livistid I Krig live at Gothenburg truly inspiring. No Bullets Fly animated story video truly magically emotional. These are only suggestions but I think they set up the mantra of Sabaton’s Lest We Forget! It will in my opinion add to the meaning of Sabaton’s Christmas Truce. It’s your journey and this very old Metal rock head is really enjoying reliving this great music thru your reactions so thank you!! Stay Safe Rock On! God Bless!🙏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great reaction. Wembley on Monday night was 🔥! And considering what she has just gone through she was absolutely amazing. There's a video on TH-cam of Nightwish performing Sleeping Sun from Antwerp last Sunday night, which was Floor's first live performance since her recent trauma, where she actually breaks down at the end of the song. It's very touching. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️
I was at the Birmingham show on Tuesday and it was fantastic (i logged on twitch when I got back) Floor looked stunning and the band played great. My wife was worried we would be old (we're in our 50's) compared to people in the crowd but there was every age there from Teenagers to People our age, some with kids, to people who looked in their 70's and some looked older. Such a lovely atmosphere, well worth going to see them, everyone around was happy no trouble, everyone enjoying the evening. I had some chills and a few teary eye moments, Seeing Floor was fantastic, you feel like you have known here for ever and she is so lovvely you cant help but love her, and yes she is clear of cancer which is great. Don't know how she could do shows so quickly after surgery but thats FLoor, she is a godess.
I was there at Wembley. I was too slow for 2016, so I got the ticket s soon as I could in 2019. Absolutely incredible - being there in the crowd singing along until my voice was hoarse. I'm still buzzing
It's me again! 😆 As I probably told you a gazillion times that I was going to see them at Wembley this Monday gone, I thought I'd better tell you something about it! I knew the previous night at Antwerp was the first show of the European tour so I was a bit worried for Floor, especially knowing that she'd got very upset towards the end of 'Sleeping Sun' - but.....we had absolutely nothing to worry about as she and the band absolutely nailed it. My Brother and I had had some bad news about an hour before the concert so we were a little downbeat but Floor was such an unbelievable tower of strength - she really WAS a shining beacon exuding positivity, radiating joy and peace to the thousands of souls that witnessed it. Wow, I've just read that back - she seems to have had an effect on my vocabulary too !!😆 🤣 Nightwish are definitely something special and I'm so happy I was one of the people who recommended them to you. They were ably supported by the wonderful 'Beast in Black' - now I can't remember if you've covered any of their songs - if not, I suggest 'Blind and Frozen' - even more interesting is the lead singer Yannis Papadopoulos has done his own covers of Ghost Love Score and Sahara - I seriously recommend those my friend 😀 I think to sum up the experience perfectly would be to say that all you have to do is look at the audience demographic - there were teenagers to people in their 70's and everyone else in between - total proof that they're producing something pretty special!! As always, a lovely reaction and such a beaming smile throughout 😊 Take good care of yourself my friend 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your magnificent evening with me!! Whatever bad news you received prior to the show I hope wasn’t too terrible but know I have you and your brother in my thoughts ❤️ I can only imagine all those Nightwish smiles in that crowd of all ages! So awesome they can bring such a wide range in age to their shows! They are amazing at what they do that’s for sure! Again thank you so much for your support❤️❤️❤️ take care!
@@JyngerSlapz thank you so much - that means such a lot to me!! I am lucky in that I have my Wife to support me - (our 15th Wedding anniversary today too) - but it's vital that you have friends you can share stuff with too. I mean I know that this isn't a support group but I believe since Covid it has become very close to one which has been vital for the sanity of many people across the globe. So I thank you for your continued content and for just being you! ❤
i saw floor break at the end of ;sleepin sun; live in antwerp, so much respect for this lady, 2 minutes later she was full power again... teared me up really great reaction as always! please keep on going @JyngerSlapz! looking forward to the next one , maybe a greatest show???? greetz from holland!
They are amazing live! Saw them on Tuesday in Birmingham, spent most of the show.... I don't know, I can barely remember it, I was just one with the music, stageshow and atmosphere and not much of it seems to have sunk in. Like a dream that gets more and more tenuous the more you wake up. The only solution is more live Nightwish shows until I'm used to seeing them for real and not on youtube :) I do remember the band were so tight, the pyros were hot and the bombs where shockingly loud and I think I even remember singing, luckily drowned out by everyone around me.
When I was a little younger I used to listen to their album, Once on repeat when I was delivering pizzas. Its beautiful to see a new generation appreciating this beautiful symphonic metal.
I've already watched all the videos from Antwerp, London and Dublin and I'm just looking forward to the concert on Sunday in Amsterdam.I'll tell you how it was. However, I already know that I will completely freaking out again. I already have my tickets for Floors solo-tour and for Nightwish next year.
Epic! Close to being my favourite Nightwish song and live performance! The show in Birmingham was fantastic, what a force of nature Floor us! Human too amazingly, forgot some lyrics in Dark chest of wonders! Troy's pipes failed in The greatest show on earth but nobody really cared, it was Nightwish!! 😉🤟🤟
Excellent Reaction! What a great show opener, right? I've tried to be objective about this and it's my true belief is that this song, along with their 'Dark Chest of Wonders' and the more recent 'Music/Noise' combo are up there at the top of the list of best set starters ever. Led Zeppelin's 'Rock and Roll/Celebration' combination (which I saw them open with in 1973) is on that list, too, but I can't think of another that would rival those four. Pure and simple, this band is in a class by itself. Thanks again, Jynger!
The beautiful is the beauty of the world and all it offers. The show opener and first song on the Endless Forms Most Beautiful album. It features the first duel between Emppu and Tuomas in about 15 years when recorded. The second song here at Wembley is Yours Is an Empty Hope. Definitely recommend you check that one out.
Amazing concert at Wembley on Monday Floor got me at least half a dozen times. They are all incredible musicians and I just love the way they all serve the wonderful music Tuomas has composed. Can't wait for another opportunity to see them. ❤💥🤘
Bloody hell, what a beautiful intense song this is, and the amazing thing about their songs is, every time I hear a song again, it's sort of new again, I mean I hear new stuff, amazing. Marvelous reaction, jynger, keep on smiling, love you, take care 🥰.
Oh you hadn't done Shudder yet, that would have been a recommendation for sure. This particular recording of Shudder is great, the band is hitting on all cylinders and the huge crowd is eating it all up. Always feel nostalgic for a good live show after hearing this one. I still think Dark Chest of Wonders is their best show opener, which they used in Wacken 2013 still and it was their show opener for about 10 years straight. For this world tour they retired Dark Chest momentarily and switched it to Shudder, which is quite good as well. In the current world tour Dark Chest has joined the mix again but no longer as the opener.
All of the lovely comments by ppl who've already seen Floor reconquering the stage post surgery, really do a great job of amping up our anticipation over here. We're going to the Ziggo Dome concert in Amsterdam this Sunday and our motto has become: "No Sleep 'Till Ziggo!". If Floor brings Henk as a bonus, I'll probably explode from awesomeness overload. Y'all have been warned 😁 Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘🖤
Enjoy the show Brendon, it was brilliant, No Henk for us though, maybe you will be very lucky. Im still thinking about it and getting chills days later.
The show opener from the 2015 Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour. Upbeat and positive. Got the crowd into it and followed with Yours is an Empty Hope (Which, by the way, was just used in a recent episode of The Simpsons.) They are a few shows into the European tour now and seems to be going well.
🤩👍💥💯 Who artist wouldn't smile when having the chance to start a show at sold out Wembley Arena!? 👌 Nicely reacted to this rolling track by them mi lady... Once again. 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
HI there JyngerSlapz! Just woke up after I took a 3hr long lunch nap time. Hahaha. This song and Yours is an Empty Hope are one of the hardest ones in this setlist. I'm so happy you graduated from Wacken concert to this. Remember to check Poet and the Pendelum in this concert.(Just do your homework well) Also Greatest Show on Earth either from this concert or Tampere 2015. Both have pros and cons. In any case try find versions with lyrics on both of these epic lyrics long songs. Have to say bye for now my beautiful Jynger. And lots of love and mental hugs from Finland
Ohhhh YES !!! I was wondering when You will try this opener !! ITS A MASSIVE SHOW OPENER \m/ the best version COME ON !! EDIT: I simply cannot listen to any of their songs with no smile... I can be the most mad man on earth, but a few senconds after I hear a little bit of any og the songs by NW I got instnt joy, smile, happiness.. this is what I call magic
Always a treat to watch you find a new Nightwish masterpiece, which just means watching another song. Please watch the link that McBawbagg included in his comment. OMG - so incredible!! Thanks for being you, and thanks for allowing us to recreate the feelings we had the first time we watched a Nightwish song by sharing your reaction! Much, much love!
They do not disappoint, nore do you! You are a precious reactor with your genuine reactions. I'm looking forward to the next one ( as always) Much love to you and Ukraine 🌻🌻🌻💙💛💙
Oh great , you did SBTB …. How the hell am I suppose to go to sleep after a night shift now that I watched this reaction lol I’m pumped right up now , thx Jynger !!! I’ve been waiting for this one , awesome 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
I was at the Düsseldorf concert with my son. First time for me and it was all I expected times 2. What an energy and Floor was rocking. So I already have tickets now for Nightwish in June and for Floor solo in April. Can't want!
I'm so glad everything went well for Floor, after 3 prosponed dates for their "Human :ll: Nature" world tour, next sunday the 27th of november, I'm going to see them live, in a sold out Amsterdam Ziggo Dome concert. I'm really looking forward to this, as it's my first live band performance after Queen's "Live Aid" performance in 1985. To me, Queen and Nightwish are, and forever will be; THE best live bands ever! If I only think about the two lead singers, Freddie and Floor, and being able to hear them both live........after that, I'm ready to die. Although, I sure hope to be around for many years to come, if my health lets me. (I'm 53) One thing I don't want to, is ending up as a greenhouse plant, if that should happen to me, I'd rather be dead! As always; Great reaction Jynger..........love ya :).
Hi Jynger. Thank you so much for another brilliant Nightwish track...what a start to a gig. I was at Wembley on that tour ...I still get goosebumps thinking about it. The whole band were awesome as per usual. Unfortunately I couldn't get a ticket for the concerts a few days ago. Extremely gutted 😟. As you say it is brilliant news about Floor. Our love and prayers go with her. I really love your reactions and channel. Looking forward to your next reaction. Peace and love from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️
Saw them this week at Wembley and Birmingham (UK). Wembley was amazing as close to perfect as I could imagine. Birmingham also very good but they had some technical problems with Troy's pipes and Floor forgot some lyrics. Floor is a force of nature on stage especially knowing what she has been through.
Love the guitar work on this by Emmpu, and Marco’s lyrical input too. So happy for Floors health ! Looking forward to the next one! Have heard some interesting insight to some of the lyrics for Poet( I know you’re building to that) if you’d like to discuss?
YES im very glad you stumbled onto this one. cant wait for the next one. ps, check out the instrumental version of this song on spotify. its just as badass imo
"Shudder before Floor" sounds good. There are also "Floor is my sin" "Yours is an empty taco" and "Endless tacos most beautiful". But of course, nothing beats the absolute OG Nightwish classic: "Nymphomaniac Fantasia". There is no live version of it though, I have no idea why.
The tacos may need some explanation....The short version is that Floor doesn't like taco's. I won't bother you with the long version, hahaha! There's also something with pineapple on pizza or not. 2 running gags...
Saw them at resorts world birmingham UK a few weeks ago.. off the chain good..they brought the noise 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 big shout out to the support bands..especially beast in black..check them out.....
I really like all your NW reactions! In every song your smile is so nice, from the start of the song to the end and i like that! That's what i always do when i see you did a new Nightwish reaction! 😉 Can't wait for your next. If i had the chance i would ask you if you cold do an reaction from the song "My lost Lenore" from the band "Tristania"! I hear them in 1999 here in Vienna and i liked this song from first time hearing. Or hear it for yourself, i really think you would like it too, but hear the album version first time hearing, or look the bautiful video, postet from "My Agony" to this song, they did a very beautiful video to this (album version) song with many great pictures in a way like an Louis Royo or Victoria Frances painted picture, all more or less in a gothic style. This pictures they take for this video looks like they were made for this and this video is with subtitels. Tristania is one of this bands who inspires a lot of other bands, like Nightwish, Epica and many others, but they had never become that success they should have become. This song is an masterpiece and i would love it if i would see you did an reaction from this song! I send you and all my best wishes and greetings from Vienna! 🖤🤘💋
In case you're wondering if they really do sound this good live, here is a video I found of the exact same performance from a different angle shot on a phone: th-cam.com/video/1oTQUsLzoyM/w-d-xo.html

Seeing her like that really hurts. I just hope the stress of a tour wasn't too early for her.
Yes , just saw the link. Her vulnerability just makes her even more perfect and adorable, if that is at all possible. Glad Tuesday’s rendition at Birmingham was more ‘normal’ , I’m not sure I could have taken Floor cracking up without doing so myself.
Thanks for the link. Both hard to watch and beautifully compelling at the same time.

I will see them for the fifth time on the 12th of December in Hamburg 🤗 I‘m already excited as hell 🤘🤘☺️
Great reaction. Wembley on Monday night was 🔥! And considering what she has just gone through she was absolutely amazing. There's a video on TH-cam of Nightwish performing Sleeping Sun from Antwerp last Sunday night, which was Floor's first live performance since her recent trauma, where she actually breaks down at the end of the song. It's very touching. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️
I was at the Birmingham show on Tuesday and it was fantastic (i logged on twitch when I got back) Floor looked stunning and the band played great. My wife was worried we would be old (we're in our 50's) compared to people in the crowd but there was every age there from Teenagers to People our age, some with kids, to people who looked in their 70's and some looked older. Such a lovely atmosphere, well worth going to see them, everyone around was happy no trouble, everyone enjoying the evening. I had some chills and a few teary eye moments, Seeing Floor was fantastic, you feel like you have known here for ever and she is so lovvely you cant help but love her, and yes she is clear of cancer which is great. Don't know how she could do shows so quickly after surgery but thats FLoor, she is a godess.
Saw them on Tuesday in Birmingham. AMAZING. FLOOR = GODDESS 😍❤️
Just seen them last monday at London Wembley Arena - Fantastic show - once again. Floor was brilliant and seem so happy, as did the rest of the band.
Saw them in Birmingham UK on Tuesday they were great. Floor sounds amazing so soon after her operation 🤘
Perfect way to start a concert 😁
I was there at Wembley. I was too slow for 2016, so I got the ticket s soon as I could in 2019. Absolutely incredible - being there in the crowd singing along until my voice was hoarse. I'm still buzzing
The Queen of Metal, long live the Queen. Saw them in Canada, blew my ancient ass away lol
Love it!!
It's me again! 😆 As I probably told you a gazillion times that I was going to see them at Wembley this Monday gone, I thought I'd better tell you something about it! I knew the previous night at Antwerp was the first show of the European tour so I was a bit worried for Floor, especially knowing that she'd got very upset towards the end of 'Sleeping Sun' - but.....we had absolutely nothing to worry about as she and the band absolutely nailed it. My Brother and I had had some bad news about an hour before the concert so we were a little downbeat but Floor was such an unbelievable tower of strength - she really WAS a shining beacon exuding positivity, radiating joy and peace to the thousands of souls that witnessed it. Wow, I've just read that back - she seems to have had an effect on my vocabulary too !!😆 🤣 Nightwish are definitely something special and I'm so happy I was one of the people who recommended them to you. They were ably supported by the wonderful 'Beast in Black' - now I can't remember if you've covered any of their songs - if not, I suggest 'Blind and Frozen' - even more interesting is the lead singer Yannis Papadopoulos has done his own covers of Ghost Love Score and Sahara - I seriously recommend those my friend 😀 I think to sum up the experience perfectly would be to say that all you have to do is look at the audience demographic - there were teenagers to people in their 70's and everyone else in between - total proof that they're producing something pretty special!! As always, a lovely reaction and such a beaming smile throughout 😊 Take good care of yourself my friend 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your magnificent evening with me!! Whatever bad news you received prior to the show I hope wasn’t too terrible but know I have you and your brother in my thoughts ❤️ I can only imagine all those Nightwish smiles in that crowd of all ages! So awesome they can bring such a wide range in age to their shows! They are amazing at what they do that’s for sure! Again thank you so much for your support❤️❤️❤️ take care!
@@JyngerSlapz thank you so much - that means such a lot to me!! I am lucky in that I have my Wife to support me - (our 15th Wedding anniversary today too) - but it's vital that you have friends you can share stuff with too. I mean I know that this isn't a support group but I believe since Covid it has become very close to one which has been vital for the sanity of many people across the globe. So I thank you for your continued content and for just being you! ❤
@@honorarythamesman5732 Happy Anniversary to you and your wife!! I think we are all family here on this channel!
@@JyngerSlapz thanks 😊 🙏 100% with you on that!
Wow wow wow ❤️there is no room for distractions here, you are captured from start to finish 💪 pure power . thanks for your reaction 🌹
i saw floor break at the end of ;sleepin sun; live in antwerp, so much respect for this lady, 2 minutes later she was full power again... teared me up really
great reaction as always! please keep on going @JyngerSlapz!
looking forward to the next one , maybe a greatest show????
greetz from holland!
They are amazing live!
Saw them on Tuesday in Birmingham, spent most of the show.... I don't know, I can barely remember it, I was just one with the music, stageshow and atmosphere and not much of it seems to have sunk in.
Like a dream that gets more and more tenuous the more you wake up.
The only solution is more live Nightwish shows until I'm used to seeing them for real and not on youtube :)
I do remember the band were so tight, the pyros were hot and the bombs where shockingly loud and I think I even remember singing, luckily drowned out by everyone around me.
When I was a little younger I used to listen to their album, Once on repeat when I was delivering pizzas.
Its beautiful to see a new generation appreciating this beautiful symphonic metal.
What a song, what a band, what a smile 🤘
I've already watched all the videos from Antwerp, London and Dublin and I'm just looking forward to the concert on Sunday in Amsterdam.I'll tell you how it was. However, I already know that I will completely freaking out again. I already have my tickets for Floors solo-tour and for Nightwish next year.
So awesome my friend! Enjoy every second of it❤️❤️
Epic! Close to being my favourite Nightwish song and live performance! The show in Birmingham was fantastic, what a force of nature Floor us! Human too amazingly, forgot some lyrics in Dark chest of wonders! Troy's pipes failed in The greatest show on earth but nobody really cared, it was Nightwish!! 😉🤟🤟
First show here in my little Costa Rica long time ago, hope some day can enjoy whit mi favorite band again 🤘💀🇨🇷
"Shudder before the FLOOR" he he 🥰🥰🥰
Excellent Reaction! What a great show opener, right? I've tried to be objective about this and it's my true belief is that this song, along with their 'Dark Chest of Wonders' and the more recent 'Music/Noise' combo are up there at the top of the list of best set starters ever. Led Zeppelin's 'Rock and Roll/Celebration' combination (which I saw them open with in 1973) is on that list, too, but I can't think of another that would rival those four. Pure and simple, this band is in a class by itself. Thanks again, Jynger!
The beautiful is the beauty of the world and all it offers. The show opener and first song on the Endless Forms Most Beautiful album. It features the first duel between Emppu and Tuomas in about 15 years when recorded.
The second song here at Wembley is Yours Is an Empty Hope. Definitely recommend you check that one out.
one of their best, amazing song
Thank you for this reaction.This is the Nightwish art to opening a Live perlormance.
Hi there🙃the show in Antwerp was so amazing,the music,the lights,am stil a little confused,so good🙃🙃🙃
always a perfect show and all gods have to bless her voice
What a great way to start my morning! So glad you did this song. I am energized and ready to go now. ❤
Glad I could help my friend! Hope you had a great day!😊🤘🏻
@@JyngerSlapz it’s the song + your “Nightwish smile”
saw them Tuesday they were amazing
Its nice to see you smile while reacting to Nightwish, because we all had that same smile the first time when we heard the same one.
Watching this song and every now and then looking at your face was a wonderful experience. I felt I was there with you. Thank you so much.
Amazing concert at Wembley on Monday Floor got me at least half a dozen times. They are all incredible musicians and I just love the way they all serve the wonderful music Tuomas has composed. Can't wait for another opportunity to see them. ❤💥🤘
What a way to start off a concert! The world needs a world #floorgasm day holiday! I can't get enough of Floor or Nightwish!
Bloody hell, what a beautiful intense song this is, and the amazing thing about their songs is, every time I hear a song again, it's sort of new again, I mean I hear new stuff, amazing. Marvelous reaction, jynger, keep on smiling, love you, take care 🥰.
Oh you hadn't done Shudder yet, that would have been a recommendation for sure. This particular recording of Shudder is great, the band is hitting on all cylinders and the huge crowd is eating it all up. Always feel nostalgic for a good live show after hearing this one. I still think Dark Chest of Wonders is their best show opener, which they used in Wacken 2013 still and it was their show opener for about 10 years straight. For this world tour they retired Dark Chest momentarily and switched it to Shudder, which is quite good as well. In the current world tour Dark Chest has joined the mix again but no longer as the opener.
All of the lovely comments by ppl who've already seen Floor reconquering the stage post surgery, really do a great job of amping up our anticipation over here. We're going to the Ziggo Dome concert in Amsterdam this Sunday and our motto has become: "No Sleep 'Till Ziggo!". If Floor brings Henk as a bonus, I'll probably explode from awesomeness overload. Y'all have been warned 😁 Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘🖤
Enjoy the show Brendon, it was brilliant, No Henk for us though, maybe you will be very lucky. Im still thinking about it and getting chills days later.
I heard someone describe this song as a science class in a metal song!
The show opener from the 2015 Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour. Upbeat and positive. Got the crowd into it and followed with Yours is an Empty Hope (Which, by the way, was just used in a recent episode of The Simpsons.) They are a few shows into the European tour now and seems to be going well.
I saw that! Well I saw that it was in the episode but refrained from watching it until my reaction is recorded :) So awesome!!
@@JyngerSlapz it will be a short reaction 😉
As always..your two..best of the week on YT 🥰😍
love the way you smile from the start to finish love watching your reactions p.s. i think you have a bit of a crush on our emppu😁😁😁😁
and you are correct my friend! Thank you for the sweet comment!
Great reaction, jynger. Love your enthusiasm!
We will see them monday in Amsterdam... 😋
Oh oh oh And another thing, in 20 days !! IM GOIN TO SEE THEM LIVE !!! my gosh its happening
I am excited for you my friend!! It will be an amazing experience for you after such a long wait! Enjoy every second of it❤️❤️🤘🏻
@@JyngerSlapz Thank You so much and I wish You can experience this too some day
Shudder indeed. Nice one again 🎆
Hi Jynger, greetings from UK
Happy Thanksgiving ❤
🤩👍💥💯
Who artist wouldn't smile when having the chance to start a show at sold out Wembley Arena!? 👌
Nicely reacted to this rolling track by them mi lady... Once again.
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Hi miss smiley face, what a way to start a show, another incredible reaction😁
HI there JyngerSlapz!
Just woke up after I took a 3hr long lunch nap time. Hahaha.
This song and Yours is an Empty Hope are one of the hardest ones in this setlist.
I'm so happy you graduated from Wacken concert to this. Remember to check Poet and the Pendelum in this concert.(Just do your homework well) Also Greatest Show on Earth either from this concert or Tampere 2015. Both have pros and cons. In any case try find versions with lyrics on both of these epic lyrics long songs. Have to say bye for now my beautiful Jynger. And lots of love and mental hugs from Finland
Yeah, that dueling keyboard and guitar solo is awesome!
I LOVE this song, and it looks like it got you happy too.
One of my favorites🥰👍!
Ohhhh YES !!! I was wondering when You will try this opener !! ITS A MASSIVE SHOW OPENER \m/ the best version COME ON !!
EDIT: I simply cannot listen to any of their songs with no smile... I can be the most mad man on earth, but a few senconds after I hear a little bit of any og the songs by NW I got instnt joy, smile, happiness.. this is what I call magic
Always a treat to watch you find a new Nightwish masterpiece, which just means watching another song. Please watch the link that McBawbagg included in his comment. OMG - so incredible!! Thanks for being you, and thanks for allowing us to recreate the feelings we had the first time we watched a Nightwish song by sharing your reaction! Much, much love!
They do not disappoint, nore do you!
You are a precious reactor with your genuine reactions.
I'm looking forward to the next one ( as always)
Much love to you and Ukraine
🌻🌻🌻💙💛💙
Oh great , you did SBTB …. How the hell am I suppose to go to sleep after a night shift now that I watched this reaction lol I’m pumped right up now , thx Jynger !!! I’ve been waiting for this one , awesome 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
I was at the Düsseldorf concert with my son. First time for me and it was all I expected times 2. What an energy and Floor was rocking. So I already have tickets now for Nightwish in June and for Floor solo in April. Can't want!
Another banger! One of the highlights of my day is seeing your smile.Great reaction Jynger
My fav... and the lyrics... OMG
I'm so glad everything went well for Floor, after 3 prosponed dates for their "Human :ll: Nature" world tour, next sunday the 27th of november, I'm going to see them live, in a sold out Amsterdam Ziggo Dome concert. I'm really looking forward to this, as it's my first live band performance after Queen's "Live Aid" performance in 1985. To me, Queen and Nightwish are, and forever will be; THE best live bands ever! If I only think about the two lead singers, Freddie and Floor, and being able to hear them both live........after that, I'm ready to die. Although, I sure hope to be around for many years to come, if my health lets me. (I'm 53) One thing I don't want to, is ending up as a greenhouse plant, if that should happen to me, I'd rather be dead! As always; Great reaction Jynger..........love ya :).
Hi Jynger. Thank you so much for another brilliant Nightwish track...what a start to a gig. I was at Wembley on that tour ...I still get goosebumps thinking about it.
The whole band were awesome as per usual. Unfortunately I couldn't get a ticket for the concerts a few days ago. Extremely gutted 😟.
As you say it is brilliant news about Floor.
Our love and prayers go with her.
I really love your reactions and channel.
Looking forward to your next reaction. Peace and love from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️
Thank you so much my friend and thanks for the support! I’m sadden you didn’t get to make the show but I hope you’ll get the chance again soon!
Will see Them on Dec 12th In Hamburg - can’t wait🎉😊
Saw them this week at Wembley and Birmingham (UK). Wembley was amazing as close to perfect as I could imagine. Birmingham also very good but they had some technical problems with Troy's pipes and Floor forgot some lyrics. Floor is a force of nature on stage especially knowing what she has been through.
Floor never forgets lyrics, but she does re-arrange them quite often :)
@@jamesschwarz007 ...as Emppu sometimes likes to improvise a bit. 🤪
Floor at 95% still exceeds what would, for any other artiste, be ‘the performance of a lifetime’.
@@jamesschwarz007 Tuomas’ lyrics are hardly the simplest ‘moon and June’ verses to get a handle on.
@@jamesschwarz007 she did forget them. I was there. Still amazing though of course.
Yes, on Dec 4th and 5th I am seeing them live again ;D - but please still try EPICA. "Beyond the Matrix" Paris live. Just to continue... ;D
Thanks ❤
One of my favs! On the work out play list.
You’re almost to the big ones!😁
Amazing! Love it! The smile is there again 😊 tnx for sharing.
This is the 3 reaction today to this song by reactors witch i follow but yours was the best 💝💝💝
Thank you very much my friend!! That means a lot!!
Love the guitar work on this by Emmpu, and Marco’s lyrical input too. So happy for Floors health ! Looking forward to the next one! Have heard some interesting insight to some of the lyrics for Poet( I know you’re building to that) if you’d like to discuss?
I'm going this Sunday in Amsterdam
Great reaction! It was nice hearing Floor's lower register in certain parts. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
as allways a nice reaction, yeah it's an EPIC song!
YES im very glad you stumbled onto this one. cant wait for the next one. ps, check out the instrumental version of this song on spotify. its just as badass imo
Hi, nice reaction🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Very good Lady Jynger, happy Thanksgiving to you ⭐
I think You are ready now for "The poet and the pendulum" (Wembley)😊
I think so too! Coming up soon 😊
"Shudder before Floor" sounds good. There are also
"Floor is my sin"
"Yours is an empty taco" and
"Endless tacos most beautiful".
But of course, nothing beats the absolute OG Nightwish classic: "Nymphomaniac Fantasia". There is no live version of it though, I have no idea why.
The tacos may need some explanation....The short version is that Floor doesn't like taco's. I won't bother you with the long version, hahaha! There's also something with pineapple on pizza or not. 2 running gags...
Lol on no tacos and pineapple on pizza are a couple of my favs! Shhhh don't tell the queen!! LOL I will have to hear about this story some time!
@@JyngerSlapz Don't worry...it will be our little secret 😂And you will undoubtedly hear those stories at some point.
Saw them at resorts world birmingham UK a few weeks ago.. off the chain good..they brought the noise 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 big shout out to the support bands..especially beast in black..check them out.....
oh, and this how u OPEN to show 🙃😎🤘
Vocal omg😮
I really like all your NW reactions! In every song your smile is so nice, from the start of the song to the end and i like that! That's what i always do when i see you did a new Nightwish reaction! 😉 Can't wait for your next. If i had the chance i would ask you if you cold do an reaction from the song "My lost Lenore" from the band "Tristania"! I hear them in 1999 here in Vienna and i liked this song from first time hearing. Or hear it for yourself, i really think you would like it too, but hear the album version first time hearing, or look the bautiful video, postet from "My Agony" to this song, they did a very beautiful video to this (album version) song with many great pictures in a way like an Louis Royo or Victoria Frances painted picture, all more or less in a gothic style. This pictures they take for this video looks like they were made for this and this video is with subtitels. Tristania is one of this bands who inspires a lot of other bands, like Nightwish, Epica and many others, but they had never become that success they should have become. This song is an masterpiece and i would love it if i would see you did an reaction from this song!
I send you and all my best wishes and greetings from Vienna! 🖤🤘💋
Happy Thanksgiving 🎉🎊
Thank you and a Happy Thanksgiving to you!
In case you're wondering if they really do sound this good live, here is a video I found of the exact same performance from a different angle shot on a phone:
th-cam.com/video/1oTQUsLzoyM/w-d-xo.html
Holy shit....the raw version is even more powerful because you can hear the whole crowd going literally crazy 😮
Wooow!!
watched it, great! thankyou,it really prooves that the are as good as you want them to be, no differrence with the masterd version.!
Hey! When greatest show on earth Tampere live reaction? You have to do that. That is amazing show!
