'She's cute.' Understatement of the century 😜 She is the Valkyrie Queen 👸🏻 So powerful yet so humble. And she is tall. I mean she is Dutch. 6 feet and a bit. Just a beautiful human being.. artist.. wife and mother. Hail to the Queen 🙌
P.s. Nightwish is a Finnish band the have another male member you haven't seen yet who's name is Troy he is British and Floor Jansen pronounced Yansen is Dutch and is 6.1 feet tall plus heals when she spin her head in circles it's called the Windmill and if you ever get goosebumps when listening to her we all call it a Floorgasm lol. By the way Nightwish actually made a movie called Imaginaerum worth a looksee. Enjoy your concert bye.
Don't promise to read all answer all comments, LOL. Nightwish became popular a symphonic metal band, but I think it's multi genre. "Nightwish - Ghost Love Score (WACKEN 2013)" is one of their most reacted video th-cam.com/video/47e_961OQWE/w-d-xo.html
she is Floor Jansen, queen of the stage and goddess of music, she can sing anything in any musical style she wants (WARNING! her voice, her stage presence, her charisma, in one word: her "spell" is highly addictive).
Hello Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands. Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish. They are from Finland. And they make Symphonic Metal. What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do. Nightwish really hits you in your heart. And that's what makes this band so unique. Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch. There were 82,000 people there. I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion. Watch out for the Nightwish Army. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power of her vocals. We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard. ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!! The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready! Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
Floor Jansen has been on the symphonic circuit starting with After Forever at 16 years old. Nightwish came some might say around the same time...let's say 1997 is a good base time for both. I'm sure Gabriel can attest to that. So it became almost inevitable or fate you might say that it came to be. Enjoy the journey as I and endless others have, Im 61, grew up in Los Angeles, Ca and seen more in my lifetime - share of bands and performers ...and must say Nightwish is in the top 3 of all time for me, that I would never be tired of listening to. General gabriel.bardac will suggest a song list for you., honestly pick anything. I dare you to keep it under 30 choices.
Floor is not human, you just experienced your 1st #floorgasm... Also Emppu tends to play that signature purple EV1 guitar... Welcome to the Nightwish army
I have been a Floor Fan since before she was in Nightwish. Nightwish did not make her. Never forget that. Please check out her solo stuff and her work in other bands.
Nope. No way Evanescence vibes. Nightwish so super. Glad you got to experience Nightwish. At least you saw a great band tonight before going to your concert. Now you can tell the difference
Nightwish is a genre unto itself. Symphonic metal describes it pretty well, but they can do anything from hard rock like you saw here, to soft ballads. The lead singer, Floor Jansen, and the bassist/male vocalist Marko Hietala, are both powerful singers and the rest of the band is just as talented. This band delivers, every single time. General Gabriel (fans of Nightwish are called the Nightwish Army) should be along and he will tell you a lot more about the band and the music. Follow his recommendations and you can't go wrong.
Greeting from Arkansas USA. Welcome to Nightwish. I see Gabriel has responded to your post. He has a huge amount of information and a great list of songs you might want to follow along. Nightwish is one of the few bands that is best live. Romanticide is one of the incredible songs Nightwish did at this 2013 Wachen concert. Every song from this show is worth your time to watch and maybe react. The song "Ghost Love Score" from this show will show you the excellence of Floor Jansen the female singer and the entire band. These are some of the best musicians you will ever find and this band and their songs are just FUN - they'll put a smile on your face you can't get rid of.
Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay 😉 The bull in flames on the side is the logo of the Wacken Open Air festival where this concert was. You'll get much more info soon from the Nightwish Army.
What Gabriel said! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. 🇦🇺🤘 Wacken 2013 is THE gig! Floor is Dutch so it's called a windmill! 6 foot plus Valkyrie! Jukka on drums is a beast. Marko, the Viking with white beard, is a great singer too! Emppu ( he is only 5'3" - THE Electric Hobbit!) can shred on that purple guitar, an EV-1, but he never overdoes it and is such a thoughtful player. Keyboard player is the maestro Tuomas Holopainen - writes most of their material. here's the link for Ghost Love Score - th-cam.com/video/47e_961OQWE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Nightwish Love your enthusiasm! "Follow the madness! Alice, you know, once did!"
If you want to hear an opera aria, listen to Floor. If you want to hear death metal with a frightening growl, listen to Flor. If you want to hear blues, listen to Floor. If you want to hear Phantom of the Opera (musical not opera), then listen to Floor. There is simply no genre in this world that Floor has not mastered absolutely perfectly and has proven it thousands of times (live). ... Which of these can an Amy Lee do perfectly? - Nothing
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’. Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). 'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: ‘Misery’s no Crime’, ‘Wild card’ and ‘Disdain’. Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ‘Please learn the setlist in 48 hours’ Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see. Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on TH-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa’ and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered TH-cam in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish. Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of these and other presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turns 8 years next march) and Lucy (1 year this october),a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Floor is the latest front-woman for Nightwish since 2012. Live performances are preferred because if you go to an album version it could be a different singer. Besides, watching the band and crowd are part of the experience. Floor is Dutch so her hair whips are actually called windmills. 😄🤘 I think you would enjoy “Storytime” from the same concert. th-cam.com/video/vUvEsX9D4eU/w-d-xo.html
An interesting way to introduce yourself to Nightwish. Gabriel will be along soon and give you a TON of information. Nightwish is better experienced live... Texas division checking in!
It's true, also because, speaking often, it's a continuous up and down of volume. I know the song very well, but if I hadn't known it I don't think I would have appreciated it much. Mine is not a criticism, the channel is yours and it's right that you do the reactions as you like, mine is just a personal consideration.
Thnx 4 this. Go on with the stuff. Welcome to the Nightwish army^^. Please listen to song of myself at Wacken. And, i am sure this will leave you speachless, the Gratest show on earth at Tampere. Due to Marco's voice , the wiking bassman, give "The Islander" also at Tampere a try. And frist of all, Ghost love score at Wacken. Floor Jansen will take over^^ Pls stay save and peace from Germany
WE love NW and Floor due to many reasons. She is one of the very best vocalists of our time. She is a true performer who can do all different stuff. And she never fails to impress us. she feels what she is performing - and can transfer this feeling to the audience. Comparison of Floor to Amy lee can give you some negative reactions...
Hello and good evening, as an idea for further pieces of music with Floor, here are a few suggestions: Nightwish - The Phantom Of The Opera (ft. Henk Poort) (LIVE) th-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/w-d-xo.html ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010) (Floor with another band and blond hair in 2010) th-cam.com/video/iNSf64M9uA0/w-d-xo.html Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem - Live In Buenos Aires 2018 - Decades Tour th-cam.com/video/S8E3L7ggLMM/w-d-xo.html Nightwish - Weak Fantasy - live th-cam.com/video/5uRLDmU-Kp8/w-d-xo.html Nightwish - 7 Days to the Wolves - Live at Wembley (2015) th-cam.com/video/gwz2h3yH9Oc/w-d-xo.html Nightwish - Live at Hellfest 2022 (complete live concert) th-cam.com/video/kL9sUc2NL2s/w-d-xo.html Got more suggestions: Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song & Valhalla - Live at Wacken Open Air 2016 th-cam.com/video/i-IcX_bccFc/w-d-xo.html Iron Maiden - Fear Of The Dark th-cam.com/video/6PDMtqejNfs/w-d-xo.html Disturbed "The Sound Of Silence" th-cam.com/video/Bk7RVw3I8eg/w-d-xo.html Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live th-cam.com/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/w-d-xo.html
This concert sells out a year in advance. When I bought my tickets, this was not the singer of the band. Still, we all really liked her from the first song. At that time though, she was not a member of the band, but rather she was filling in until the end of the tour. The band did hold her in high regard though, so it was not surprising to anyone that she was hired before the end of the year.
The mastermind of the band Tuomas Holopainen (the keybordist) is very versatile, so he has created music in very different subgenres, as well as progressive folk (two albums by group "Auri" and his very own project "Lifetime of Adventure"). So,. just take any song, except "The Poet and the Pendulum" and "The endlessness"- these should be put off until later, to learn more about maestro Holopainen, and former basist and male vocalist Marko Hietala.
As to the live videos or music videos, they have very few of the latter, but all are very interesting, except the first video of the "Sleeping Sun" (compared to the 2005 video of the same song) and "I wish I had an Angel", where they are just standing in some industrial building and camera is spinning around.
The reason why you were asked to listen to the live version at this Wacken 2013 concert is because most of the Nightwish fans on TH-cam prefer this singer, Floor Jansen, who only joined in late 2012. She is singing every song recorded by the two previous singers Tarja Turunen (1996-2005 operatic) and Anette Olzon ( 2007-2012 pop) and taking them all to another level. Definitely Ghost Love Score next at this concert. th-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sPJnVeeRiIFB-4B-
TSO is more hard rock than metal and typically American. Symphonic metal is typically European. It lacks the African-American music influence and Nightwish has Celtic influences instead. The confusion with Ghost Love Score is even greater because there are versions with two different singers and different endings. The video with the most reaction videos on TH-cam is the version from the Wacken concert in 2013. The version with the first singer is from the End of an Era concert in 2005. The (burning) bull skull is the logo of the Wacken Open Air. The German WOA is one of the oldest and largest metal festivals with 85,000 visitors, an additional 15,000 visit the village of Wacken. Vocalist Floor Jansen is 6', guitarist Empuu 5.3'. She was once asked who would win in a fight between the two. Her answer was Empuu because he has a black belt in judo. Judokas like people who are bigger and stronger than them because they can take advantage of that. Just before the end you scored an own goal, you mentioned Amy Lee. Sorry for the person who used harsh words. The comparison is often made by Americans because Amy sounds very European. In Europe nobody comes up with the idea because Amy Lee is typical. Singers are generally not always understandable because speaking and singing are not always compatible. High notes require you to open your mouth wide, which causes problems when the text requires closed lips. The result is a compromise. The first singer Tarja is difficult to understand in the early songs because she sings with a strong Finnish accent. There is no studio version with Floor of any of the songs at this concert. In 2012 the band and their second singer had a falling out. Two days before the next concert they suddenly had no singer and Floor had to travel from the Netherlands to the USA within 48 hours and learn a 1.5 hour setlist by heart. She says of her first concert that her voice was only 50 percent there and that she sometimes had to sing behind the front row because she didn't know the lyrics. Mastermind and keyboardist Tuomas says she was perfect. She saved the band from falling apart. At the Wacken concert, she had been touring with the band for 10 months. Officially, she is only the season singer, but it had already been agreed within the band that she would be the third singer. Today, she is the longest-serving singer. The Wacken audience is special. Advance sales start shortly after the end of the festival and are sold out within a short time, without people knowing the full line-up. They go because it's the WOA and are always in a good mood. Two examples: Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song & Valhalla - Live at Wacken Open Air 2016 Heaven Shall Burn - Voice of the Voiceless [Live at Wacken 2009 - HD DVD]
So glad you found Nightwish. They are amazing. Their 6’1” classically trained Dutch singer Floor Jansen is the best female singer out there. As for your reaction style, I love your enthusiasm but saying “ok” every 5 seconds and the constant commentary over the music is a tad off putting.
Unfortunately for people who haven’t heard this song before, will have listened to it again! You talked over most of the song! Pick your moments and stop the video, say your comment go back a few seconds and start to play again. This will be better for your audience and for you as they won’t have listen to both at the same time! Only saying! This is one of the greatest bands around at the moment, only trying to help. 🏴
Hi I'm your new subscriber kiwi I would like to make a request for nightwishes sister band Wintersun for Wintersun sons of winter and stars 1.5 official lyric video from Wintersun jari TH-cam channel link it's also for my mother Cathy she has breast cancer and is not in good health it would make her day better if she watched your reaction for Wintersun.

Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she

We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.

Floor Jansen has been on the symphonic circuit starting with After Forever at 16 years old. Nightwish came some might say around the same time...let's say 1997 is a good base time for both.

Ghost love Score Wacken 2013
Nice reaction. I cant wait for you to open more of this amazing chest of wonders 🤘😆🤘
Floor is not human, you just experienced your 1st #floorgasm... Also Emppu tends to play that signature purple EV1 guitar... Welcome to the Nightwish army
I have been a Floor Fan since before she was in Nightwish. Nightwish did not make her. Never forget that. Please check out her solo stuff and her work in other bands.
Remember to breathe so now and then when you are talking.
Nope. No way Evanescence vibes. Nightwish so super. Glad you got to experience Nightwish. At least you saw a great band tonight before going to your concert. Now you can tell the difference
The purple guitar is an ESP EV-1, the EV stands for Emppu Vuorinen. The guy playing the guitar.😄
Nightwish is a genre unto itself. Symphonic metal describes it pretty well, but they can do anything from hard rock like you saw here, to soft ballads. The lead singer, Floor Jansen, and the bassist/male vocalist Marko Hietala, are both powerful singers and the rest of the band is just as talented. This band delivers, every single time.

The best live versions of Nightwish are done by Floor also involves the crowd🤘
Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay... Okay 😉

You'll get much more info soon from the Nightwish Army.
What Gabriel said! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. 🇦🇺🤘 Wacken 2013 is THE gig! Floor is Dutch so it's called a windmill! 6 foot plus Valkyrie! Jukka on drums is a beast. Marko, the Viking with white beard, is a great singer too! Emppu ( he is only 5'3" - THE Electric Hobbit!) can shred on that purple guitar, an EV-1, but he never overdoes it and is such a thoughtful player. Keyboard player is the maestro Tuomas Holopainen - writes most of their material. here's the link for Ghost Love Score - th-cam.com/video/47e_961OQWE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Nightwish Love your enthusiasm! "Follow the madness! Alice, you know, once did!"
..just keep calm and love this..❤..listening..❤
PS - the Metal Valkyrie is 6 ft!
If you want to hear an opera aria, listen to Floor. If you want to hear death metal with a frightening growl, listen to Flor. If you want to hear blues, listen to Floor. If you want to hear Phantom of the Opera (musical not opera), then listen to Floor. There is simply no genre in this world that Floor has not mastered absolutely perfectly and has proven it thousands of times (live). ... Which of these can an Amy Lee do perfectly? - Nothing
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’.
Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera).

Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turns 8 years next march) and Lucy (1 year this october),a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Floor Jansen the Dutch goddess of metal ❤❤😊
Greetings from Finland 🤘🤘
"the little bull" is about 30 feet across 😀
They changed it by now to one that is over 40 feet in size.
Floor is about 6'1" barefooted. With heals she's around 6'6"-6'8". It's not that her band mates are short. She's just tall.
Emppu is a dwarf though
@rawr02009 yeah. I forgot about that. He is a little on the short side.
Emppu has to be careful that Floor does not accidentally run him over when she gets enthusiastic dancing around the stage.
🤘💎🔥
Floor is the latest front-woman for Nightwish since 2012. Live performances are preferred because if you go to an album version it could be a different singer.

Texas division checking in!
whiplash = windmill cuz she's Dutch😉
Nice reaction 🤘Welcome to Nightwish
Every time you make a comment, the audio gets softer for a few seconds... make it hard to appreciate the song...
It's true, also because, speaking often, it's a continuous up and down of volume. I know the song very well, but if I hadn't known it I don't think I would have appreciated it much. Mine is not a criticism, the channel is yours and it's right that you do the reactions as you like, mine is just a personal consideration.
The audio engineering term for that is "ducking". It can make a small or large difference in volume levels. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducking
You have always the right choice with Nightwish, only the live versions are preferred.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song about the destructive nature of falling in love with the wrong & deceitful person.
Thnx 4 this. Go on with the stuff. Welcome to the Nightwish army^^.
Please listen to song of myself at Wacken. And, i am sure this will leave you speachless, the Gratest show on earth at Tampere.
Due to Marco's voice , the wiking bassman, give "The Islander" also at Tampere a try.
And frist of all, Ghost love score at Wacken.
Floor Jansen will take over^^
Pls stay save and peace from Germany
WE love NW and Floor due to many reasons. She is one of the very best vocalists of our time. She is a true performer who can do all different stuff. And she never fails to impress us. she feels what she is performing - and can transfer this feeling to the audience. Comparison of Floor to Amy lee can give you some negative reactions...

GOST LOVE SCORE _ WACKEN 2013
This concert sells out a year in advance. When I bought my tickets, this was not the singer of the band. Still, we all really liked her from the first song. At that time though, she was not a member of the band, but rather she was filling in until the end of the tour. The band did hold her in high regard though, so it was not surprising to anyone that she was hired before the end of the year.
The mastermind of the band Tuomas Holopainen (the keybordist) is very versatile, so he has created music in very different subgenres, as well as progressive folk (two albums by group "Auri" and his very own project "Lifetime of Adventure"). So,. just take any song, except "The Poet and the Pendulum" and "The endlessness"- these should be put off until later, to learn more about maestro Holopainen, and former basist and male vocalist Marko Hietala.
As to the live videos or music videos, they have very few of the latter, but all are very interesting, except the first video of the "Sleeping Sun" (compared to the 2005 video of the same song) and "I wish I had an Angel", where they are just standing in some industrial building and camera is spinning around.

I think they may have killed it! Subd for the Nightwish journey 🤘
The reason why you were asked to listen to the live version at this Wacken 2013 concert is because most of the Nightwish fans on TH-cam prefer this singer, Floor Jansen, who only joined in late 2012. She is singing every song recorded by the two previous singers Tarja Turunen (1996-2005 operatic) and Anette Olzon ( 2007-2012 pop) and taking them all to another level. Definitely Ghost Love Score next at this concert. th-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sPJnVeeRiIFB-4B-
Good one yes Foor is tall, if those are 4'' heels she's wearing she' almost 6'6''

How Did You Love Music Video
TSO is more hard rock than metal and typically American. Symphonic metal is typically European. It lacks the African-American music influence and Nightwish has Celtic influences instead.
The confusion with Ghost Love Score is even greater because there are versions with two different singers and different endings. The video with the most reaction videos on TH-cam is the version from the Wacken concert in 2013. The version with the first singer is from the End of an Era concert in 2005.
The (burning) bull skull is the logo of the Wacken Open Air. The German WOA is one of the oldest and largest metal festivals with 85,000 visitors, an additional 15,000 visit the village of Wacken.
Vocalist Floor Jansen is 6', guitarist Empuu 5.3'. She was once asked who would win in a fight between the two. Her answer was Empuu because he has a black belt in judo. Judokas like people who are bigger and stronger than them because they can take advantage of that.
Just before the end you scored an own goal, you mentioned Amy Lee. Sorry for the person who used harsh words. The comparison is often made by Americans because Amy sounds very European. In Europe nobody comes up with the idea because Amy Lee is typical.
Singers are generally not always understandable because speaking and singing are not always compatible. High notes require you to open your mouth wide, which causes problems when the text requires closed lips. The result is a compromise. The first singer Tarja is difficult to understand in the early songs because she sings with a strong Finnish accent.
There is no studio version with Floor of any of the songs at this concert. In 2012 the band and their second singer had a falling out. Two days before the next concert they suddenly had no singer and Floor had to travel from the Netherlands to the USA within 48 hours and learn a 1.5 hour setlist by heart. She says of her first concert that her voice was only 50 percent there and that she sometimes had to sing behind the front row because she didn't know the lyrics. Mastermind and keyboardist Tuomas says she was perfect. She saved the band from falling apart. At the Wacken concert, she had been touring with the band for 10 months. Officially, she is only the season singer, but it had already been agreed within the band that she would be the third singer. Today, she is the longest-serving singer.
The Wacken audience is special. Advance sales start shortly after the end of the festival and are sold out within a short time, without people knowing the full line-up. They go because it's the WOA and are always in a good mood. Two examples:
Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song & Valhalla - Live at Wacken Open Air 2016
Heaven Shall Burn - Voice of the Voiceless [Live at Wacken 2009 - HD DVD]
Yes, your mic is working well, really, really well. TOO well, in fact. And PLEASE don't liken Nightwish to Evanescence.....
It calls windmill, not whiplash, and yes she is 6´1¨!
I've always said the TSO was similar to Nightwish at least in overall scale and presentation....
So glad you found Nightwish. They are amazing. Their 6’1” classically trained Dutch singer Floor Jansen is the best female singer out there.
As for your reaction style, I love your enthusiasm but saying “ok” every 5 seconds and the constant commentary over the music is a tad off putting.
Unfortunately for people who haven’t heard this song before, will have listened to it again! You talked over most of the song! Pick your moments and stop the video, say your comment go back a few seconds and start to play again. This will be better for your audience and for you as they won’t have listen to both at the same time! Only saying! This is one of the greatest bands around at the moment, only trying to help. 🏴
Best to hold the majority of your comments for pauses between the song. Just a thought.
Hi I'm your new subscriber kiwi I would like to make a request for nightwishes sister band Wintersun for Wintersun sons of winter and stars 1.5 official lyric video from Wintersun jari TH-cam channel link it's also for my mother Cathy she has breast cancer and is not in good health it would make her day better if she watched your reaction for Wintersun. Nightwish is a sister band with nightwish because they have band members that are in wintersun currently Wintersun is symphonic melodic death metal they also use viking folklore also so please send me back a reply for my mothers suggestion. Thank you your new subscriber Wintersun Alex ❄️🫶
You should also check out epica an other dutch symphonick metal band who is on the same level as nightwish but more heavy also has a female lead singer consign to oblivion live at the zennith in paris is a good one to start with
Great reaction ! Floor and Marko ate just powerhouse singers but if you want s full immersion into symphonic metal try
