Floor is one of the few singers out there that often does better live than in studio. What an amazing band, amazing composition and of course the great Floor Janssen.
Floor seems like a really great person, judging by what I've seen of her on her channel and in interviews and documentaries. But I don't seem to be as impressed with her work as most people. I think this is because I listen almost exclusively to symphonic metal, where being really good is the norm. It's skewed my standards.
I love floor. She is the reason I started singing lessons but I can't listen her recorded. It sounds kinda boring 😅 recordingwise Annette's voice was much better recorded but less strong live. 😅 Never liked Tarjas whining...
No one does this. No one. Except Nightwish with Floor Jansen. Tuomas' reaction in the background tells you all you need to know. If you can impress Tuomas to that level, you are indeed special. We are all lucky to share our lives with these artists. If this does not move you....maybe you should try ice fishing.
Had not heard the song until I heard them on the last tour did not get the album on purpose so I would be surprised and boy was I. It got to the ad astra part in the song and it was an out of body experience and I wept wept with joy I had never heard anything that beautiful
@@kennethpeters that was the show where I saw Floor for the 1st time. That show was called as the Unicorn. When everything goes right and Floor shined as a supernova.
@@strikebr You can see Tuomas in the background and how she impressed the hell out of him. If Tuomas can still be surprised by how good she is that says more than I ever could.
That's most impressive thing I heard in my entire life. Each time I cry, and to see it live now, wow, I'm out of words... Can't wait to see them in Paris.
The same happens to me every single time too.! The feeling is incredible! I'd suggest you to try ''The Nomad's Crown'' from 'Xandria', it's not the same oc but Manuela's vocal notes in that song are absolutely epic and beautiful too!
I am also enable to hold my happy and proud tears on that song (and some other). Live in Vienna was so magical for me, first time on their concert 🥹 I also cried few more times during the concert 😅 ❤
Man.. No matter how many times I hear this song, the power in her voice during the song, and in particular the 'ad astra' portion at the end, gets me almost emotional every single time.
Thank you for filming her in all her glory. You went straight for the footage you wanted. And you got it. The emotions, the beauty, the fierceness....everything. Thank you for sharing.
The absolute concentration is so beautiful to see. No ego, just singing. Clapton said of Stevie Ray Vaughn that he was channeling the music from above, through his guitar. Well, this applies to Floor as well I feel.
Nope, she is the BEST vocalist regardless of genre or gender, I have heard her sing many genres of music all have been astonishing, I can’t think of a single artist who could hold a candle to the breadth or depth of her talent.
I saw Nightwish in the UK back in November. This song was one that really wanted to hear them play. It was perfection, I mean utter unadulterated perfection. The piece at the end was flawless and was a soul washing moment that left me completely in awe. There are only two bands that have ever delivered a set where I felt completely humbled and unable to really fully comprehend what I had just witnessed. Nightwish is one. The other……
5:11 Floor is always so proud of herself when she nails the ending of this song. As she should be! After all, this was the song that was so hard to sing that she needed multiple days even in studio to be successful. And now she's performing it live.
Did not think Floor could better ghost love score how wrong was I, listening to this song definitely helped me though covid. Perfect singer , perfect singer, perfect voice.
When i heard it two or three years ago on the net, i always cried beacause it was so beautiful and magic. But you know, i don't cry anymore beacause i am not a little boy anymore. Cheers Fred from France
That was for sure a "wow" from Tuomas at the end, showing that the TO crowd was amazing that night - great capture susana, and all your takes from this show are terrific :)
I’m so glad this exists Susana! I come back to it every now and again. It’s my concert from the exact same vantage point and I get to relive some of these moments.
Thank you soo much for all your uploads!! They are pure gold! ❤️ Floor is the best vocalist in the world, have loved her for years. She really killed it with this one, just WOW 🥺❤️😥🌹
Someone needs to make a fantasy movie with her in the main role of a femme fatale that lures heroes to their doom. Or a warrior goddess that comes and saves the day and slays the Death Lord.
Your recordings are the best in the entire tour so far. I recorded the NYC show but I was in the balcony. Yours is so much closer and it still sounds great. Thank you for posting these.
How cool is that? I must have looked in your direction a few times, but I can’t seem to remember your face (sorry!). I remember the guy directly behind me, and to his left was a father with his teenage daughter (she was standing next to me). So you must have been standing to the right of the guy directly behind me. Small world!
Floor é magnífica. Uma coisa que chama minha atenção nessa apresentação, é o movimento que ela faz com os ombros e o tórax no encerramento. Gostaria de saber o motivo, a explicação técnica.
Acredito que seja uma questão de colocar o diafragma em uma posição que permita aquelas notas. Uma característica da Floor é a capacidade de controlar a respiração, melhor que muitos mergulhadores profissionais.
WOW. What a song and what a performance. Beautifully done! Also, that guy screaming "Yeahhhh...Yeaaahhhhh" at 5:14 represents all of the spectators. By the way, nice filming susana.
I had only heard of Nightwish from reading Prog Magazine. I knew they had been around for a while. But trying to listen to every new prog band you hear of is impossible, so I am thrilled you posted this and TH-cam sent it to me. And this was done on a phone?? Great video and audio. I went to iTunes and got their Decades disc to start listening.
@@2224bach No problem! I'm curious what you think of it! There are also lots of official live videos on TH-cam. You should definitely check out The greatest show on earth in Wembley. A masterpiece! Great band!! On album and live!
Thanks for sharing this. There's no need to apologize for the video quality. The only thing I would change is to use the wide/normal angle for the whole time because most smartphones apply extra DSP processing to "zoom" the microphones which often clips the audio much more easily. The best option would be to be able to tell the camera software to not touch the microphone when you zoom the image but that's not an option in most smartphones.
Floor is one of the few singers out there that often does better live than in studio. What an amazing band, amazing composition and of course the great Floor Janssen.
She reminds me of Eddie Vedder and how powerful he is live as well. That guy was doing magic in the 90's too
Floor seems like a really great person, judging by what I've seen of her on her channel and in interviews and documentaries. But I don't seem to be as impressed with her work as most people. I think this is because I listen almost exclusively to symphonic metal, where being really good is the norm. It's skewed my standards.
You're Right and Tarja is better live too:). I think that's the way to evaluate singer. Good singer should be better live.
I love floor. She is the reason I started singing lessons but I can't listen her recorded. It sounds kinda boring 😅 recordingwise Annette's voice was much better recorded but less strong live. 😅 Never liked Tarjas whining...

The Shoemaker family should be proud of this song and the music video. Imagine having Nightwish sing a song about a family member.
Had not heard the song until I heard them on the last tour did not get the album on purpose so I would be surprised and boy was I. It got to the ad astra part in the song and it was an out of body experience and I wept wept with joy I had never heard anything that beautiful
Our Decades in the Sun is about how they feel about their own families. They said it was really hard to record as it was so emotional for them.
Das schönste was es gibt, ist Floor zu hören und zu sehen. ❤❤
Fur sicher....
What I like about this video is Tuomas looking across to Troy at the end and saying "Wow!" I think even he was blown away by Floor's performance here.
just noticed freaking so cool for him to be impressed by her
The eyes of HEAVEN rain every time Floor Jansen sings
What a woman!!!❤
Never has a singer sung so fine and pleased an audience so much as Floor has this night.
82k people in Wacken 2013 will disagree with you , sorry.
@@strikebr Trying to decide which version of Floor sings better might just drive you crazy.
@@kennethpeters that was the show where I saw Floor for the 1st time.

@@strikebr You can see Tuomas in the background and how she impressed the hell out of him. If Tuomas can still be surprised by how good she is that says more than I ever could.
@@kennethpeters I won't argue with that.
This song makes my goosebumps have their own goosebumps. Tears are easy to start to roll.
This woman is a force of nature! 👌💪💪
I think even Tuomas is impressed. It looks like he is saying “wow” at the end ☺️
He does 😀
he absolument does say Wow
👍👍
I saw that as well. How could one ever get used to hearing that and think nothing of it but normal lol.
Yes he certainly does !
Some people wondered if this song could be done live, but this is Nightwish so sure, of course it can!
Actually Toumas was the one who was not sure if they can do it live.
@@LittleLust1 Correct. He needs to have more confidence in their ability to handle live arrangements and especially in FloorJansen.
That smile Tuomas gave Floor at the end says it all.
Truly Floor is the Valkyrie warrior queen. What a great performance by Nightwish live! One of their best, thanks Tomas
That's most impressive thing I heard in my entire life. Each time I cry, and to see it live now, wow, I'm out of words... Can't wait to see them in Paris.

OMG, that smile of Floor's at the end. WOW!!! So beautiful.
Damn, she's just perfection.
And she is doing it LIVE!!!!
[edit]
5:03 this frame will be my next wallpaper, you can fell her power singing.
Please don’t apologize for the camera work. That ad astra close up was fabulous! Love Floor’s confidence when she smiles at the end.
Holy cow that ending though! Absolutely perfect!
I love the interaction between Troy and Tuomas, at the end. They know Floor nailed it...again!
I cried during this. Tearing up now watching it again.
Man.. No matter how many times I hear this song, the power in her voice during the song, and in particular the 'ad astra' portion at the end, gets me almost emotional every single time.
I was there and remember the goosebumps at the end!
Wow magnifique mia vidéo ❤❤❤
I wish I could give a like to this more than once.
I get goosebumps about the naturalness in which she makes this passage of voices between 4:48 and 4:52... It's surreal because it's so perfect!
she makes it look so easy, *.*
Hello from Gran Canaria.
This song is still magic.
This is the best performance I've seen of Shoemaker, and the best filming of it, 'phone or not. Well done.
Thank you!
Thank you for filming her in all her glory.
You went straight for the footage you wanted. And you got it.
The emotions, the beauty, the fierceness....everything.
Thank you for sharing.
Pffew.. how beautiful can one sing 😍
i was there, all i can say is WOW!
Muy buen sonido, gracias
Your voice is so beautiful, Floor!
3:52 Floor has the most angelical voice in this world. So beautiful.
The absolute concentration is so beautiful to see. No ego, just singing. Clapton said of Stevie Ray Vaughn that he was channeling the music from above, through his guitar. Well, this applies to Floor as well I feel.
its just crazy what she can do live...just unbelievable
Incredible, really gets the emotions going, can almost feel the effort that floor puts in. Outstanding !
Is Floor the BEST Female metal vocalist?
Yep.
Does a bear shit in the woods?
Nope, she is the BEST vocalist regardless of genre or gender, I have heard her sing many genres of music all have been astonishing, I can’t think of a single artist who could hold a candle to the breadth or depth of her talent.
Yes, she is.
Yes, she is the best, but my favourite is Simone Simons.
Pure beauty
4:50 PURE MAJESTY and Tuomas going WOW in the background after lol
She is amazing

I tear up every time. Seeing them live is something special. I was at the May 8th show in New York City and it was beautiful!
I will see them perform this summer, in Stockholm. It will be a real pleasure. Didn't think I'd get to experience it.
btw - that shakespeare quotation is fantastic
Absolutely fantastic. How can Floor get any better
5:11 Floor is always so proud of herself when she nails the ending of this song. As she should be!
After all, this was the song that was so hard to sing that she needed multiple days even in studio to be successful. And now she's performing it live.
Thanks this one too☺️
They look so happy now that they're finally getting back on tour...
Not for much
.
This live is unreal and her best live performance I heard on YT. Good job recording it.
She's an absolute goddess.
Absolutely extraordinary performance and excellent sound quality on your recording! Thanks for sharing! 😉🤟
Thank you for sharing! Once again, the Valkyrie Goddess has brought me to tears, simply by singing. Laudato si Deam Noctis!!!
Perfect performance by Floor and Nightwish
Did not think Floor could better ghost love score how wrong was I, listening to this song definitely helped me though covid. Perfect singer , perfect singer, perfect voice.
Always, Always, Amazing!
The best bands sound better live than the recording ,wish i could have seen them on this tour. Great show floor and nightwish!!!
Awesome. Great quality footage up close.. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, how great quality is this?!! Thank you so much!! 🥰
BEAUTIFUL VOICE!!!
When i heard it two or three years ago on the net, i always cried beacause it was so beautiful and magic.
But you know, i don't cry anymore beacause i am not a little boy anymore.

I agree.
Fantastic performance by Floor and great recording- best closeup of Floor singing on TH-cam
Brilliant! Thank you so much.

Someone needs to make a fantasy movie with her in the main role of a femme fatale that lures heroes to their doom. Or a warrior goddess that comes and saves the day and slays the Death Lord.
Personally I prefer the 2nd idea more, femme fatale feels like we're underselling her. A warrior queen who sings her army into existence, maybe?
Floor was so good in this, at the end Tomas turns to Troy and says wow.
Pure Talent ! Nothing to say
Thanks for the upload. This is really good for cellphone footage. I don't think I've ever heard a cellphone recording with such good sound!
impressive as always!
Yes !!!! Thank you !!!
I was there...it was spectacular!
Simply the Best ❤
Such power straight from the inner soul gates: oooo my god, saw them in Bucharest 1.08'22 it is an experience, a tremor to cherish and never forget...
Какая же она классная, королева Флор!!!
Your recordings are the best in the entire tour so far. I recorded the NYC show but I was in the balcony. Yours is so much closer and it still sounds great. Thank you for posting these.
You've uploaded some jewels girl.
I missed them in 2020 thanks to bloody covid and then I missed them again this month. There is no justice in the world. 😭
I was standing right beside the guy behind you I believe. Your camera is so much better than mine. Thanks for uploading.
How cool is that? I must have looked in your direction a few times, but I can’t seem to remember your face (sorry!).

@@susana_vb oh … I was the guy behind you! Black toque and black long sleeve Hurley shirt.
Oh WOW!! 🎹🎶😍💛
A great song, Floor out of this world - and the smiling at the end - I AM DONE!
GOOOOOOOOOOODDEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
floor, is a goddess ❤❤❤

I love watching viking goddesses shred - goosebumps when she drops back in after the bridge. take me.
WOW. What a song and what a performance. Beautifully done!

Флор самая красивая женщина на мЕталсцене и самая классная вокалистка.
She could start her own country tomorrow and I bet she'd have millions of subjects on day one.
hannes is one lucky bastard.
