Troy plays so many different instruments at different times. His most prominent instrument with Nightwish is the Uilleann pipes (an Irish bagpipe), but in this song he was playing a Bouzouki (essentially a bass mandolin). He also does whistles, pipes, guitars, and even sings. On occasion, I've said that Nightwish's symphonic component incorporates a 6 section orchestra; choirs, strings, percussion, brass, wind, and Troy Donockley.
Damn, I love this song so much!! It's my second favorite Nightwish song, only bested by Song of Myself. Although, there are days that the two songs change order. LOL. Anyway, here's a link to my 3rd favorite Nightwish song, Sahara. 🤘 Sahara - th-cam.com/video/lTvYfLa4Wlk/w-d-xo.html On a side note: can you post the link to this video? I'm curious to see something about this particular source. I would appreciate it. 😀
One of my favorites. I love the way it builds slowly throughout the whole song to an epic ending. Great video reaction my man. Troy was playing a Bouzouki, which is similar to a mandolin except bigger. Four strings doubled up like a 12 string but only 8 strings total.
Finally!! Great reaction, definitely one of my favorites 😍 Love when Floor and Marko sing together. Check out Weak Fantasy (Tampere 2015) for more of that. So proud of Floor being a Dutchie myself 🇳🇱 Looking forward to your next reaction 👍🏻
Ha! My no 3 - I mentioned Piet is No 1. Song of Myself from Wacken 2. This is 3. High energy at thecstart, increasing stedily to the end, with Floors silent howl near the end It was a great concert As to movie scores, the whole Imaginaerum tour, of which Awacken 2013;was one concert, was soundtrack to the eponymous film Imaginaerum, starring the band members in a dark but brilliant movie
Ty for the reaction, this is a favourite of mine! Maybe do The Greatest Show on Earth live at Tampere next..? Its long and you might want to read a bit about the lyrics before, but you will not be disappointed!
Yes, this has Troy in it.. Troy, he plays,, well too many instruments to mention here as well as backup vocals.. This also has Kia their new, well new to you drummer.. Jukka left due to health reasons, so they call Kia to take over. He was the drummer for another well known band call Wintersun at the time..

Try listening the galloping bit really loud. The bottom end gets so much power its brutal
Funny you mentioned movie scores... Check this movie out th-cam.com/video/qMhwh0-xcLo/w-d-xo.html. It is the brain child of Tuomas. Nightwish did the whole score and acted in the movie as well. It is brilliant.!
Oh, you know what? Suggestion for branching out (while still doing more Nightwish because, I mean, we're kind of insatiable about that): Band-Maid, a 5 piece band from Japan. Strong hard rock compositions and three of the best musicians you'll listen to. I always like to suggest the music video "Dice" as a great introduction, but generally they're better live. "Dice" is a great declaration of intent - they will grab you by the ear and explain, in no uncertain terms, what fun, hard driving rock sounds like. Then you can have two staple bands on your channel! ;-) Dice - th-cam.com/video/ZpAYnVJX9CY/w-d-xo.html
WTF you havent done a reaction to I want my tears back ??????(wacken live 2013) Why Not!!!? also Try Kiss while your lips are still red (Wembly 2015 same as this one )
I usualy recommend I Want my Tears Back for the 6th member to listen to his marvelous Uillean pipes :) live from Wacken 2013 or Buenos Aires 2018
Wembley Let's GO !! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺💥💥💥

Troy (6th member) is playing an Irish Bouzouki. If you look carefully it has 8 strings! Glad you like this!
Back to Nightwish! Excellent :)

I looooooooove this song
Ha! My no 3 - I mentioned Piet is No 1.
Song of Myself from Wacken 2.
This is 3.
High energy at thecstart, increasing stedily to the end, with Floors silent howl near the end
It was a great concert

For more Troy "I want my tears back" from the decades show (buenos aires) really epic energy there!
Ty for the reaction, this is a favourite of mine! Maybe do The Greatest Show on Earth live at Tampere next..? Its long and you might want to read a bit about the lyrics before, but you will not be disappointed!
😁🤘❤️greetings from🇫🇮🤘
Thank you, Nathan. This is exactly what I needed before work.
Glad to help!
YES 💕💕💕 REAL PERFORMANCE
Funny you mention movie scores, that's exactly where Tuomas is coming from, he's a great fan of movie scores and Hans Zimmer. especially.
Oooooh, do My Walden
Yes, this has Troy in it.. Troy, he plays,, well too many instruments to mention here as well as backup vocals.. This also has Kia their new, well new to you drummer.. Jukka left due to health reasons, so they call Kia to take over. He was the drummer for another well known band call Wintersun at the time..

Next up "Ever dream" at wacken 2013 if you want to hear floor maxing it out
You don't need to put their songs in an order. They are all phenomenally good.
I think you'd find Stargazers (Live at Tampere) to be really interesting. Floor delivers just about the whole performance in an operatic style.
For older stuff from Troy can do I Want My Tears Back (Buenos Aires) , My Walden or Alpenglow from Tampere
The kid in me pops for the spinny fireworks every single time I watch this.
We see lots of guitars behind you. How about a tour?
How were you able to not headbang during that performance is beyond me, you must be super-human. 😉

Both with Troy
Is it time to Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars live rehearsal at Sonic Pump studio? Please and peace 🙏🏼😎✌🏼
This speeded up version sounds odd, makes me a bit hyper
I got it from a link in the comments.
Wtf The pitch is wrong.. its faster than the normal video
I'm going by links in the comments
EAM25 ..ok I’m glad I’m not the only one. Yes definitely faster and different pitch.
Got used to hearing a slower, down-pitched version of a nightwish song from time to time here on youtube - but faster and higher is a novelty for me.
I knew something was off when it started playing
You've got quite nasty glasses.. can you see anything? :D
