Yeah. Kind of a given. Funny thing, Tarja got me INTO Nightwish (unique look and sound), Annette kind of faltered (fairly 'common' look and sound - still GOOD, but not unique (IMO)). FLOOR, on the other hand… Ho. Lee. Fook.
@@johnrose5482 I stopped listening to (new) Nightwish for years after Tarja left. I heard a couple of tracks with Annete and didn't buy any albums for 15 years. I have only recently recently started listening to what they have produced since 2005. Besides discovering Floor, I realized that I badly underrated Annete. Annete was a skilled rock vocalist when she joined, and really grew in her years with Nightwish. If she hadn't followed Tarja and preceded Floor, she would be widely respected as an outstanding vocalist. Buy Tarja and Floor are not merely outstanding. If you had a top 100 list of best vocalist ever recorded, both of them would be high on the list. I will admit to preferring Tarja - I think that is not just because I heard her first, but because of her natural tonal quality. I've distilled it into this: Floor is as skilled and talented as Tarja is talented and skilled.
Hello Kathy, Lulu & Donna [ Three Generation Reactions ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience. About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners. Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory): " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen [pronounced Tarr-ya] (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her. There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps. I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol " For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community 🤘
@@KathyLuluandDonna Just so you know for future reactions when you see Gabriel,he pretty much took over as the "leader" for The Nightwish Army (Nightwishes own fanbase) Ever since our original "mother and leader" in Ann Waychoff sadly passed away. Just a few years ago now,we sadly lost her due to some unforseen illness. Gabriel here has been doing a outstanding job ever since! 👌
I concur! I have been listening to hard rock and heavy metal since 1963, as a 6 year old boy! Nightwish is the best of the best! You have started down the rabbit hole that is Nightwish! I have yet to hear a single Nightwish song that I haven't loved! Every song is fantastic! Nightwish Army, Austin, Texas Regiment, signing out!
@@seamusbob3458 Personally I prefer Epica but I think both their music is good beyond ranking, they transcend comparisons with the quality of their sound!
Here's something no one else has told you. This woman's voice can cure cancer, and I am the living proof. I discovered this band while undergoing treatment for stage 4 colon cancer. I would listen to Nightwish during chemo infusion treatments. In May of 2022, I saw them perform live in Chicago. I stood twenty feet away from Floor Jansen and her Nightwish brothers. Her voice shook my body. Six weeks after that show I was declared cancer free. This band saved my life.
I mean, that's something I can truly believe. I've seen her do things which aren't exactly natural for a human being to do, so it wouldn't surprise me if she can also cure cancer tbh. Btw, Congrats for having the courage to go through the journey, for your resilience, and for killing the beast!
Hi Kathy, Lulu & Donna [ Three Generation Reactions ] Nightwish Army Italian Division reporting for duty. Welcome to the amazing world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. You have started an incredible journey into the Nightwish world and, believe me, you will never be disappointed by the band. Please follow the suggestions of our general (Gabriel Bardac) to continue the musical journey. BTW welcome to the Nightwish family, the most incredible musical family in the world. God bless you.
The one and only Floor Jansen. The Queen of Metal and Valkyrie Goddess. The best female vocalist of this generation. This woman can sing everything. Even phone books. From growling to highes notes. This woman is perfection and at the same time absolutely down-to-earth and lovable.
There's a clip when some radio station asked her about that statement with the phone book. Floor asked for a phone book and sang part of it. It sounded good. Q.E.D. 🙂
I've followed Nightwish from the start, and first time i saw them live was in 98 or 99. I thought Tarja Turunen has an amazing voice. When Tarja left the band, i thought Nightwish is done, they can't replace her. I was young, stupid and i thought i knew everything about music. Then Floor arrived and changed everything and helped Nightwish reach their full potential. I can't listen to old albums from Tarja's era without shame and embarassament. Over hyping leads to worshipping mediocrity

Hello Kathy, Lulu & Donna. 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.
And never forget watch the videos to the end especially songs like "The Greatest Show On Earth" as many are missing the of song. I am saying this because of the reaction with Sabaton earlier.
You ladies have already experienced the amazing Sabaton. Floor Jansen, the Dutch queen of symphonic metal is married to Hannes Van Dahl, the drummer from Sabaton. All in the family so to speak. So much more to experience from the world class band of super talented musicians. One of the best live bands on the planet! See you again very soon ladies. Gabriel Bardac, the Romanian Nightwish ambassador will be by shortly to inform and guide you in your journey of discovery if you so desire. Be well and have a wonderful 2024. 🥂🥂🎉🎉🎊🎊🙏🙏
Greetings from the senior division of the Nightwish army. I’m a 69-year-old guy who has been absorbed in music since the 1960s, and Nightwish has emerged as one of my two favorite bands of the last 50 years.
69 years "of age" you mean! 😜 Néver éver again say old...why?, because only the devil is old. My mom told me that a long time ago and i believe her. So you do the same.....can i get yes? 😁 Just kidding, but you get the idea. btw, i'm a few years younger than you.
You have now been introduced to our 6 foot Dutch Valkyrie Queen, Floor Jansen. One of the most incredible, versatile voices on the planet and one of my favorite bands. Their music is generally classified as symphonic metal. If you want a real treat, look at I Want My Tears Back live from the decades tour in Buenos Aires. The crowd was insane and Floor dances a jig onstage. Plus you get to hear the sixth member, Troy, on the Irish Bagpipes. Yes, I said bagpipes!!!
Hello dear reactors. Nightwish is symphonic metal band from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen (keyboards) is our metal Mozart who writes and composes this beautiful music. He is our national treasure (I'm from Finland). I have all their studio albums since 1996 and of course this Wacken DVD. I was at their live concert 17th of June this year and I tell you, if you ever have a chance seeing them live, go!
I'm not part of the Nightwish army or anything but I do appreciate the hell out of this band previous and current members. I check on YT every now and then since I started to notice that reaction vids work in something like "seasons". They make rotations then disappear for a while then all of a sudden they're back on heavy rotation. I've been keeping any eye on G.L.S reactions because I enjoy watching 1st reactions to them and hope they can become a household name here in the USA. They deserve it.
I discovered NightWish during the pandemic. They immediately became my favorite band , and I listen to them nearly every day. They are so good with Floor on vocals. So many good songs and so many different sounds. Heavy, rock, slow, bluesy, etc. they are so great!
This is the greatest band in the world, with the most humble, and gracious members. The Lead singer, Floor Jansen is and enigmia, she is one of the strongest, most empowered woman in the world, yet she is so kind so shy, so family oriented, and she is an empath she gets her power from the crowd and the people around her, and she is the type of woman that you girls should hold as your role model. She is 6'1" and from the Netherlands, she is married to the drummer of the Swedish heavy metal band SABATON, Hannes van Dahl and they live on a ranch in Sweden with all their horses dogs and cats and two daughters Freya(7), and Lucy(4 mons). Floor and beaten Breast Cancer in 2022 and was back on stage 4 weeks after the surgery. She is a powerhouse, she also does solo work and just released her first solo album "Paragon" in April and it is 180 out from what she sings in Nightwish, it is more soft rock oriented, also check out her appearance on the Dutch singing show "Beste Zangers" especially Phantom of the Opera. On the show she sings in multiple languages and multiple genres. Enjoy your Nightwish Journey and Floor Jansen journey.
13:15 The Floorgasm brings yet more converts to the family !! 😁 Welcome Sisters. You are Each, one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show, and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie Goddess, and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it. A breathtaking masterpiece sung by a Valkyrie Goddess… or what Nightwish thinks of as just another day. 💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙 Infantryman-Nightwish Army. US Regiment.

I can't believe you have never seen this! Your reactions were priceless though! Brought a smile to my face... you can watch anything from Nightwish and it will undoubtedly blow your mind!
Well you finally get to hear one of the best vocalist in the world....period. Floor can sing anything and that is why Nightwish can play anything. She has sung is 6 languages, sung Pop, Jazz, Metal, Rock, and even growls when needed. She is married to the drummer of Sabaton, and has a pair of lungs compared to a deep sea diver and breathe control to die for. Enjoy the journey you just started and Gabriel will give you menu that will keep you busy for a long time with this band. My husband is hoping that Nightwish, Sabaton, Lovebites, and Asterism all meet on the stages of Wacken Music Festival (Germany) next August, 2024. He want Floor (6' 1") and Asami/Lovebites (4' 10") to do a duet together....LOL
Thanks for the reaction finally lol . The whole concert is superb . This is the 13th song of a 15 song set the stamina is amazing hence small breaks , shout out to the drummer . Ever Dream and Storytime are worth seeing seeing from the same concert
@@KathyLuluandDonna I trust Gabriel for the top suggestions but the two songs he requested are great and there are a lot more and I prefer the recordings done here in Wacken and I simply love the crowd pictures and can you guess who will play this coming summer in front of that crowd? Yes, the three little sisters from Mexico AKA *The Warning.* 🤘😎🤘
Three strikes in a row! A warm welcome to the magical world of Nightwish. This is called symphonic metal and at its best. And dear lady's, if you have liked it, there is more, much more. You won't be disappointed, promised. All I can say is: Enjoy the ride, the experience, the magic. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🤘🫡
Nightwish is phenomenal! I've been watching them since they started and she has a beautiful voice. Glad you guys like this video. Watch more because you will love them. Thank you for the reaction
This version of Ghost Love Score is the TH-cam video with the most reaction videos. The song is from 2004 and was originally sung by the first singer Tarja Turunen. This is Floor Jansen, who has been the temporary help here for 10 months and is now the third singer. This version has a changed ending from the original. The song is one of the last songs of the concert, which is why there is already a lot of crowd surfing. Some people later complained that security allowed too many people in. Symphonic Metal is typically European and the USA has a hard time with anything that takes place outside the States. The Wacken Open Air is one of the largest and oldest metal festivals in the world, in Germany, with around 85,000 visitors. The audience in Wacken is special. Many people have been coming to the festival for years and it is characterized by a friendly atmosphere. The other singers: Tarja Turunen: NIGHTWISH - The Phantom Of The Opera (OFFICIAL LIVE) Anette Olzon: NIGHTWISH - Bye Bye Beautiful (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) The current video: Nightwish - Tribal (OFFICIAL LIVE) Other Symphonics: Within Temptation - Bleed Out (official music video) VISIONS OF ATLANTIS - Pirates Will Return (Official Live Video) | Napalm Records EPICA - Storm the Sorrow |Live| (RETROSPECT, 10th Anniversary) ~ 2013 [Full HD]
All Nightwish Numbers are awesome. Some more then others but even their lesser numbers are better then the best songs of other bands! They have both melodic quiet songs and numbers that just explode from the start, I like to shuffle them on my play list.
Hello Ladies and welcome to the phenomenal world of Nightwish! You're eyes when Floor (from Flora, the Goddess of Flowers and Spring) hit that high long note...priceless! 🥰 Gabriel Bardac has already given you a lot of info and those are the videos with the correct speed etc. You can choose any song you like from his list. My favorite of this Wacken 2013 concert, which is absolutely one of the best, is "Song of Myself". But it's your channel, you decide. Have fun discovering them! For now a Happy New Year in advance and hope to see you soon again! Greetings from The Netherlands!
You've just had your first FLOORGASMS, don't worry it's a normal human reaction everytime you hear Floor singing. 😂😉👌🔥 What a great first genuine reaction, the shock of disbelief on your faces says it all, you've just been introduced to this iconic and epic performance, and guess what, it will only get better as you discover more and more of their songs. Welcome to Nightwish army family, you're gonna enjoy it here. 😉💪🔥

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), daughter Freja (turns 7 years next march) and a newborn daughter Lucy ,a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Welcome to the beautiful world of Nightwish! They have over 100+ songs of this quality in a huge range of different styles. It is a crime how unknown they are in the US compared to how HUGE they are in the rest of the world
16:10 Oh thanks God you let her to speak, taking to consideration that this lady represent most of the audience. 😂❤ She wanted to say so much from the beginning and we wanted to hear her, and descent amount of times she started and you interrupt. ❤❤❤
Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. Wacken 2013 was the concert of the decade of not the century! ANY song will blow you away!
I found the video of the full set from this concert, 100% recommend you watch it (not a reaction unless you wish lol). The whole set was amazing and the crowd surfing went from start to end of the set not just this song
Welcome to Nightwish! The singer, Floor Jansen is a classicly trained soprano. She is feckin awesome! I was in that crowd and it was one of the greatest nights I ever had.
I kinda feel that you can't go wrong with any song from this concert. It holds the same standard imo as Rammstein live in Paris or New York MSG as one of the best concerts I've ever seen. Though going to some Rammstein concert that blew my mind and also messed up my leg once from all the jumping etc I'm envy all the people who saw Nightwish live at this concert.
Floor stands a tad under 6-2 in bare feet, and she's wearing 4 to 5 inch heels here......she's the Valkyrie Goddess.......she's been singing in metal bands since she was 16.......Tuomas Holopainen is the keyboardist, co-founder (in 1996), leader, guru, composer, lyricist, arranger, and producer of 95% of the bands music....he is the Metal Mozart....the audience here was an intimate little gathering of 82,000......the entire 2013 Wacken show is available on both DVD and TH-cam, titled ":Showtime, Storytime".....for more Nightwish, follow Gabriel Bardac's list, and you'll be amazed time after time.......hello from the Nighwish Army, South Carolina, USA
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty: What you should do: Listen to Gabriel. He knows. Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured three more souls….:-) It never gets old to see people freeze when our Queen starts to sing…. About Ghost Love Score: Standing solid as a World Pillar around which the planet revolves, Floor hits "The Note," the crowd loses their shit, the band tears a hole in the fabric of Space-Time, and 82,000 people will never, ever be the same again. Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries and Stonehenge, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
Looks like three new Nightwish fans !! Love you girls !! This was the 10th song in a 13 song set that night. I'm 75 years young and I wanted to be there too !!
I discovered this band through a reaction video to this song about a year ago, and it has been life-changing. I hope you will continue to explore them. After you have done this for a while, the singer Floor Jansen has an amazing array of other performances both with other bands, and as a solo artist, and does a wide variety of musical styles that I hope you will check out.
Welcome to the wonderful diverse world of Nightwish. UK Oldies Division of Nightwish army here as a new subscriber. Hope you'll keep on watching and listening. Especially their live recordings. I saw them live at Wembley in November 2022 and it was the most amazing experience. To hear more from them, I suggest you follow Gabriel's list or pick and mix from it. I have followed Nightwish for some time now and have just about every Nightwish recording, live and studio and not a single track I don't like.
We have all been where you were seeing this the first time, and this band (Nightwish) and lead singer Floor Jansen are so beloved by so many for very good reasons. Every song, every performance, a new story, but always awesome.
Great reaction ladies. Loved watching you react to Nightwish, especially to our 6' tall Valkyrie Queen Goddess. This was song 13 of 15 in front of 82,000 people.
Consider it Lightning in a Bottle - this particular concert from 2013. Floor is a Master of her instrument and really the reason I showed up today. Ghost Love Score was #13 or 15 on the set list. Other wonderful performance from this show are Ever Dream and Nemo. You'll be encouraged to listen to the entire concert, but unless you're pretty immersed in metal, not all will match this performance. I don't consider myself a Nightwish fan like the majority of the folks you'll find here. I'm really a fan of Floor's and her solo projects. After first seeing her solo performances from her appearance on the Dutch tv show Beste' Zangers it solidified my fandom of Floor and she introduced me to Nightwish. So, to promote Floor I'm going to take the liberty of posting a selected playlist of live performances that I consider the most enjoyable for me from her catalog of solo projects. Floor's ability to cover a great range of genre's in her solo projects demonstrate her versatility and makes her one of the most engaging vocalists performing today. Even if you're not inclined to 'react' to her music, I encourage you to explore her offerings for your own enjoyment. 2019 - Beste' Zangers Solo cover of "Shallow" (Lady Gaga) - th-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/w-d-xo.html Duet cover of "Phantom of the Opera" w/ Henk Poort - th-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/w-d-xo.html Classical, cover of "Vilja Lied" in German - th-cam.com/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HUiy9AYavOrwSANH 2021 - solo Amsterdam Concert **You will find these are from her channel and the entire concert is there, professionally taped provided by her fans through crowdsourcing** "Storm in a Glass" - th-cam.com/video/7ax5nSPB9t8/w-d-xo.html "Slow, Love, Slow" - th-cam.com/video/bBG8GdyLYDk/w-d-xo.html "Nemo" - th-cam.com/video/Uebh4TuP_Xg/w-d-xo.html 2022 - Singles from her 2023 released solo album.

Floor went on a show called "Beste Zangers" this show really showcases a lot of her talent and range...do yourselves a favot and react to all of these clips from this show ...especially her and Hank Poort doing Phantom of the opera...
Great reaction ladies! Welcome to the Nightwish world and greetings from Finland! A really great band with a massive catalogue and lots of great live performances to check. They are very versatile and stylistically they go all over the map. This song was longer, epic soundtrack style.
Greetings from 🇨🇦, welcome to the world of Nightwish ladies! They go heavier, they go softer ,they go folky , they go everything !! More please lol 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
Hello Ladies, this was song 13 of 15 at this concert and Floor had been singing, head banging, windmilling and dancing for an hour and 10 minutes before this song. All members of Nightwish are great musicians as well as performers. You can't do wrong reacting to anyone of the songs at this concert. Enjoy the Nightwish rabbithole!
Ladies...you have not seen anything yet ...Her name is Floor Jansen and she is the 3rd singer in this band and for me the best.......Welcome to the Nightwish Journey...Its an amazing ride.
Thank you music lover Ladies! (and Kevin and Creg)!🙂👍 Nice that you liked this song and band. Gabriel and others have already put some information with better english so I just say: Hope you will find even little pit of joy their musuc than Nightwish have given to me. Greetings from Finland and Happy New Year to you❤! (by Nightwish fan since 1998)
Thank you girls 😊 It's always so nice to see ppl get blown away by Nightwish. As I was 1998 when I saw them for the first time live (in Helsinki, Finland). That time it was with Tarja (original vocalist) as the lead singer. Nightwish music is unique, for me it doesn't matter who of the ladies (Tarja, Anette or Floor) sings, music remains. But I enjoy most the current vocalist, Floor. Her versatility is mind blowing. And welcome to the NW rabbit hole, we have cookies...😂 I can see that Gabriel have been here in the comment section. He have the best links to performances. NW is best live. Greetings from Norway/Finland 🇳🇴🇫🇮
Don't expect every Nightwish song to be like this. Every song is different and each one an adventure. Stick to live performances from different concerts and you'll hear how versatile they. Happy New year from an 83years old Aussie.
Hi ladies, what a wonderful reaction! The look of wonder on your faces warmed my heart. You have so much to look forward to forward to with this amazing band. General Gabriel of the Nightwish army will give you a link to a list of the best live performances. If you follow that you won’t go far wrong. Greetings from the UK.
It was a pleasure to watch the 3 of you react to, Nightwish for the first time. It appears you're smitten for Nightwish, love at first sight. Like all of us become once we discover this super superior band of masterful musicians. Subscribing in hopes to catch all your Nightwish reactions. It's going to be difficult to not watch more, after seeing GLS. GoodLuck with that.. LOL
Hello ladies. Nightwish Army Phoenix new subscriber here for you. This was a wonderful reaction to this amazing Nightwish live performance, one of many such performances. Nightwish is always best experienced live. I highly encourage you to read all of Gabriel Bardac's comment and follow the link he provides at the end which will take you to his list of many more amazing Nightwish live performances. Thank you all for this lovely reaction to our beloved Nightwish with our 6'1" (barefoot) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yahn-sen) on female lead vocals. Keep the Nightwish reactions coming.
Nightwish is an interesting band that went from opera metal with Tarja to a more pop style with Annette and then to a more rock style with Floor. I actually listened to them as far back as when I was in high school. If you like this style you might like Mister Misery, their song Ballad of The Headless Horseman is my go to Halloween song every year.
Now... I recommend starting with the first song of the Wacken 2013 concert -- "Dark Chest of Wonders" -- and just make your way through the set list in order. My very favorite Nightwish songs are in this set list: Ghost River, Dark Chest of Wonders, Ever Dream, Storytime, and Ghost Love Score. Floor Jansen along with the whole band made that concert unbelievably amazing. Divinely inspired performers, all of them.... but especially Ms. Floor Jansen. Goddess, for sure.
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!! The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Welcome aboard the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic every time . Sensory overload..NW style!!🤘🤘👍👍
Pretty sure I witnessed mom and grandma experience their first Floorgasm during the last 2 minutes of the song. (I still get them every time I listen to this song, and I’ve listened to it over 1000 times easily)
Ladies, the next one is normally "Storytime" from the same concert in Wacken. Wacken is a small town, just under 2,000 inhabitants. There is a fun story. When the first festival was to start, nobody realy knew what to expect (it is a heavy metal festival in the North of Germany). It is told, that suddenly motorbikes with wild looking guys and gals thundered into the small, quiet town. The inhabitants sought shelter against that dangerous looking people. There was a little old lady on her way home from the grocery store, heavy ladden with goods. Suddenly a wild and dangerous looking man, climbs off his bike walks to the lady and says: Madam can I help you carrying yout stuff home?? She was pleased and allowed him to help. That sealed a friendship for years and those "dangeous" people are very welcome to this day. Never was there real violence at this festival, at least to my knowledge. A few accidents, but no violence.
Nightwish live shows are one of the best that I've ever seen! And I've seen a number of rock/metal concerts... If you have chance, definitely go to their concert! It will be a live experience, believe me!
I was watching the thumbnail,and Lulu had a look over her like she found a new religion. What can i tell you,i had the exact same look over me when i first saw Floor (and heard her of course *ahem*) We tend to compliment her in a comedic way by calling her a Norse Goddess (she has many petnames!) I love Nightwish above most bands,and that way before Floor Jansen came in. I love every member,past and present these days,i didnt always use to. I used to be abit ignorant towards theyr 2nd vocalist,i guess i was just so worried that Nightwish would never be the same again,and i did not listen for her strengths. Floor Jansen is with Tuomas Holopainens own words: The third and final vocalist for Nightwish,if something unexpected happens with her,or she leaves then Nightwish departs completely as a band. Tuomas is the composing,song writing genius at the keyboard,for many he is the mastermind behind theyr success. And i think Tuomas said this also as a complimentary thing towards Floor,that there are not anyone out there that could replace her vocals and personality at this point. (He is also tired of losing vocalists,and noone can blame him there,but with Floor in they are all smiles and seems like the most connected family,so it really seems like they were meant to be from the start) The story of Nightwish as a band can be seen over several documentaries,and it really gives you a deeper meaning and appreciation towards the band,and every member. They truly have something special there. And when theyr lineup was like this at Wacken Open Air in 2013,other bands supporters were jealous of Nightwish`s lineup. That jealousy became even more impactful when British multi instrumentalist Troy Donockley joined them,pretty much because of Floor Jansen joining them permanently,as Troy had been working with Tuomas before this on records,and helping them on tour. But Troy didnt really vibe with the previous lead singers,but after Floor arrived he wanted to join permanently too,wich says alot. Im not gonna write too too much,but i just notified my allies in The Nightwish Army,so you are about to be raided. I can see the numbers already jumping up,so prepare for alot of information and love. Great Reaction as always! Lulu,dont giggle but the guitarist`s artist name (because his birth name is too long and complicated for US fans) is Empuu (Yup,"Empoo",you heard right) Alot of ladies like him,we call him The Hobbit,because he is soo much shorter then everyone else,and loves to prank the other members. Now im gonna zip it,i promise. 13:12 Oh,and thats why we call Floor a Goddess also,her LONG high power notes!
Nightwish Army Turku, Finland here. Very nice reaction, thank you! Just Nightwish doing Nightwish things! And as you have surely noticed, although they are all outstanding , none of them standout. Nightwish is their own genre and no other band comes close to the level they are at. Enjoy the journey!
Welcome ladies to a band that delivers Epic music. They are a collective of very talented musicians in their own right, who play for the music. No showoffs here. The music they play is 95% written by the keyboardist Tuomas. Welcome from eastern North Carolina.
Gabriel has a list of songs by nightwish, with links to the best live performances at the bottom of his comments. Can't go wrong by not knowing witch one to pick. Enjoy your ride, it's mind blowing what FLOOR JANSEN and the band can do.
Haha, just an ordinary day at the office for Floor and the guys. Greetings from the snowy and freezing Finland! ⛄🎅👍
Look out with that Haha, because when Floor Jansen is around you need a fire extinguisher.
Kathy: "She can get her voice SO HIGH!"
Nightwish fans: "Wait for it..."
Yeah. Pretty much. 😂
Old fogeys: Yeah, she's phenomenal, but she still ain't Tarja.
@@that.schamp Yes,luckily she isn't.🤣
Yeah. Kind of a given.
Funny thing, Tarja got me INTO Nightwish (unique look and sound), Annette kind of faltered (fairly 'common' look and sound - still GOOD, but not unique (IMO)).
FLOOR, on the other hand…
Ho. Lee. Fook.
@@johnrose5482 I stopped listening to (new) Nightwish for years after Tarja left. I heard a couple of tracks with Annete and didn't buy any albums for 15 years. I have only recently recently started listening to what they have produced since 2005.
Besides discovering Floor, I realized that I badly underrated Annete. Annete was a skilled rock vocalist when she joined, and really grew in her years with Nightwish. If she hadn't followed Tarja and preceded Floor, she would be widely respected as an outstanding vocalist.
Buy Tarja and Floor are not merely outstanding. If you had a top 100 list of best vocalist ever recorded, both of them would be high on the list. I will admit to preferring Tarja - I think that is not just because I heard her first, but because of her natural tonal quality.
I've distilled it into this: Floor is as skilled and talented as Tarja is talented and skilled.
Hello Kathy, Lulu & Donna [ Three Generation Reactions ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience.
About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
" Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen [pronounced Tarr-ya] (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "
For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community
🤘
Greetings from Finland once again Gabriel.
Thanks for the information
@@KathyLuluandDonna Just so you know for future reactions when you see Gabriel,he pretty much took over as the "leader" for The Nightwish Army (Nightwishes own fanbase) Ever since our original "mother and leader" in Ann Waychoff sadly passed away. Just a few years ago now,we sadly lost her due to some unforseen illness. Gabriel here has been doing a outstanding job ever since! 👌
@@sonofthesea3298she is still missed so much ❤
@@sonofthesea3298 sorry but we have no leader ,all fans are equal and all have valid contributions , reactors are not limited to one person
Best band I've ever heard (I'm 77)...and I've heard plenty of 'em.
I concur and I'm 77 too !!
I concur! I have been listening to hard rock and heavy metal since 1963, as a 6 year old boy!
Nightwish is the best of the best! You have started down the rabbit hole that is Nightwish! I have yet to hear a single Nightwish song that I haven't loved! Every song is fantastic!
Nightwish Army, Austin, Texas Regiment, signing out!
domt know mate i think they are tied with epica
@@seamusbob3458 Personally I prefer Epica but I think both their music is good beyond ranking, they transcend comparisons with the quality of their sound!
Here's something no one else has told you. This woman's voice can cure cancer, and I am the living proof.
I discovered this band while undergoing treatment for stage 4 colon cancer. I would listen to Nightwish during chemo infusion treatments. In May of 2022, I saw them perform live in Chicago. I stood twenty feet away from Floor Jansen and her Nightwish brothers. Her voice shook my body.
Six weeks after that show I was declared cancer free.
This band saved my life.
❤❤
I mean, that's something I can truly believe. I've seen her do things which aren't exactly natural for a human being to do, so it wouldn't surprise me if she can also cure cancer tbh. Btw, Congrats for having the courage to go through the journey, for your resilience, and for killing the beast!
they certainly saved these ladies from mediocrity.. ;) glad you're better 1338..
I'm super happy for you, from my heart! Greetings from Finland.
And you're sure it was not the chemo at all, bro?
Hi Kathy, Lulu & Donna [ Three Generation Reactions ] Nightwish Army Italian Division reporting for duty. Welcome to the amazing world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. You have started an incredible journey into the Nightwish world and, believe me, you will never be disappointed by the band. Please follow the suggestions of our general (Gabriel Bardac) to continue the musical journey. BTW welcome to the Nightwish family, the most incredible musical family in the world. God bless you.
hey he is just one person,so the rest of us should be ignored by reactors ?
This poster is trouble.be careful.
Easily one the greatest live performances ever, Nightwish is an amazing band
The Viking Goddess Lead Singer’s name is Floor Jansen! She is in a league all by herself! SHE IS INCREDIBLE!
The one and only Floor Jansen. The Queen of Metal and Valkyrie Goddess.
The best female vocalist of this generation. This woman can sing everything. Even phone books. From growling to highes notes. This woman is perfection and at the same time absolutely down-to-earth and lovable.
Growling plus a little bit of Opera. Check out her cover of 'O Mio Babbino Caro', she sang that Aria all alone before she was in Nightwish. :)
There's a clip when some radio station asked her about that statement with the phone book. Floor asked for a phone book and sang part of it. It sounded good. Q.E.D. 🙂
@@realulli 100%.
I've followed Nightwish from the start, and first time i saw them live was in 98 or 99. I thought Tarja Turunen has an amazing voice. When Tarja left the band, i thought Nightwish is done, they can't replace her. I was young, stupid and i thought i knew everything about music. Then Floor arrived and changed everything and helped Nightwish reach their full potential. I can't listen to old albums from Tarja's era without shame and embarassament. Over hyping leads to worshipping mediocrity
My favorite female vocalist, annie lennox is my second ..

Hello Kathy, Lulu & Donna.
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.
Thanks for watching
And never forget watch the videos to the end especially songs like "The Greatest Show On Earth" as many are missing the of song. I am saying this because of the reaction with Sabaton earlier.
The amazing part of this, you have not even scratched the surface of what this band and this singer is capable of.
You ladies have already experienced the amazing Sabaton. Floor Jansen, the Dutch queen of symphonic metal is married to Hannes Van Dahl, the drummer from Sabaton. All in the family so to speak. So much more to experience from the world class band of super talented musicians. One of the best live bands on the planet! See you again very soon ladies. Gabriel Bardac, the Romanian Nightwish ambassador will be by shortly to inform and guide you in your journey of discovery if you so desire.
Be well and have a wonderful 2024. 🥂🥂🎉🎉🎊🎊🙏🙏
Happy New Year
I think we are all guides and ambassadors
Well said!@@enato9180
Floored!!! The last 30 seconds or so of this song is one of the most epic endings of any song.
Yes. Between this and We Are Here.
Nice one! As Floor Jansen is the singer's name.
Greetings from the senior division of the Nightwish army. I’m a 69-year-old guy who has been absorbed in music since the 1960s, and Nightwish has emerged as one of my two favorite bands of the last 50 years.
Fantastic =) Which is the second one?
Bloody Legend! 🤘🤘🤘
69 years "of age" you mean! 😜 Néver éver again say old...why?, because only the devil is old. My mom told me that a long time ago and i believe her. So you do the same.....can i get yes? 😁 Just kidding, but you get the idea. btw, i'm a few years younger than you.
STORYTIME, next!! So glad you enjoyed this!!
Always time for storytime!
the " nightwish army" is on its way. so happy you guys found nightwish, its a rabbit hole well worth exploring cheers from Australia .
Hello from Texas
You have now been introduced to our 6 foot Dutch Valkyrie Queen, Floor Jansen. One of the most incredible, versatile voices on the planet and one of my favorite bands. Their music is generally classified as symphonic metal. If you want a real treat, look at I Want My Tears Back live from the decades tour in Buenos Aires. The crowd was insane and Floor dances a jig onstage. Plus you get to hear the sixth member, Troy, on the Irish Bagpipes. Yes, I said bagpipes!!!
Hello dear reactors. Nightwish is symphonic metal band from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen (keyboards) is our metal Mozart who writes and composes this beautiful music. He is our national treasure (I'm from Finland). I have all their studio albums since 1996 and of course this Wacken DVD. I was at their live concert 17th of June this year and I tell you, if you ever have a chance seeing them live, go!
Congrats you have finally discovered THE greatest band and greatest singer...ever ❤️
I discovered them last year and im still addicted.😊
Me too, straight into the rabbit hole I went ..
Nightwish and Floor Jansen are something else, Floor is an charismatic story teller she can sing opera and everything in between🤘, it is EPIC!
There is only one... and she is FLOOR!!
Everything is an understatement! There’s a you tube video of her singing the yellow pages.
I'm not part of the Nightwish army or anything but I do appreciate the hell out of this band previous and current members. I check on YT every now and then since I started to notice that reaction vids work in something like "seasons". They make rotations then disappear for a while then all of a sudden they're back on heavy rotation. I've been keeping any eye on G.L.S reactions because I enjoy watching 1st reactions to them and hope they can become a household name here in the USA. They deserve it.
This is the 13th song of a 15 song setlist. What a great reaction. Your faces when you reacted to "The Note", made my day!! Welcome to the adventure!!
Thanks
In Floor's first concert with NW she was given 48 hours to learn the set, in 2012.

@@eclecticmn4838 While flying from the Netherlands to Seattle, Washington at 40,000 feet.
I discovered NightWish during the pandemic. They immediately became my favorite band , and I listen to them nearly every day. They are so good with Floor on vocals.
So many good songs and so many different sounds. Heavy, rock, slow, bluesy, etc. they are so great!
Tarja Turunen is better
@@seamusbob3458 Nah. Still a brilliant singer, but has nowhere near the versatility of FJ
This is the greatest band in the world, with the most humble, and gracious members. The Lead singer, Floor Jansen is and enigmia, she is one of the strongest, most empowered woman in the world, yet she is so kind so shy, so family oriented, and she is an empath she gets her power from the crowd and the people around her, and she is the type of woman that you girls should hold as your role model. She is 6'1" and from the Netherlands, she is married to the drummer of the Swedish heavy metal band SABATON, Hannes van Dahl and they live on a ranch in Sweden with all their horses dogs and cats and two daughters Freya(7), and Lucy(4 mons). Floor and beaten Breast Cancer in 2022 and was back on stage 4 weeks after the surgery. She is a powerhouse, she also does solo work and just released her first solo album "Paragon" in April and it is 180 out from what she sings in Nightwish, it is more soft rock oriented, also check out her appearance on the Dutch singing show "Beste Zangers" especially Phantom of the Opera. On the show she sings in multiple languages and multiple genres. Enjoy your Nightwish Journey and Floor Jansen journey.
13:15 The Floorgasm brings yet more converts to the family !! 😁 Welcome Sisters. You are Each, one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show, and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie Goddess, and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it.
A breathtaking masterpiece sung by a Valkyrie Goddess… or what Nightwish thinks of as just another day.

I can't believe you have never seen this! Your reactions were priceless though! Brought a smile to my face... you can watch anything from Nightwish and it will undoubtedly blow your mind!
Thanks for watching
Well you finally get to hear one of the best vocalist in the world....period. Floor can sing anything and that is why Nightwish can play anything. She has sung is 6 languages, sung Pop, Jazz, Metal, Rock, and even growls when needed. She is married to the drummer of Sabaton, and has a pair of lungs compared to a deep sea diver and breathe control to die for. Enjoy the journey you just started and Gabriel will give you menu that will keep you busy for a long time with this band. My husband is hoping that Nightwish, Sabaton, Lovebites, and Asterism all meet on the stages of Wacken Music Festival (Germany) next August, 2024. He want Floor (6' 1") and Asami/Lovebites (4' 10") to do a duet together....LOL
Thanks for the reaction finally lol . The whole concert is superb . This is the 13th song of a 15 song set the stamina is amazing hence small breaks , shout out to the drummer . Ever Dream and Storytime are worth seeing seeing from the same concert
Thanks for the info!
@@KathyLuluandDonna I trust Gabriel for the top suggestions but the two songs he requested are great and there are a lot more and I prefer the recordings done here in Wacken and I simply love the crowd pictures and can you guess who will play this coming summer in front of that crowd? Yes, the three little sisters from Mexico AKA *The Warning.* 🤘😎🤘
Welcome to the magical world of Nightwish!
Three strikes in a row!
A warm welcome to the magical world of Nightwish.
This is called symphonic metal and at its best. And dear lady's, if you have liked it, there is more, much more. You won't be disappointed, promised.
All I can say is: Enjoy the ride, the experience, the magic.
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🤘🫡
Hello from Texas
Nightwish is phenomenal! I've been watching them since they started and she has a beautiful voice. Glad you guys like this video. Watch more because you will love them. Thank you for the reaction
Thanks for watching
This version of Ghost Love Score is the TH-cam video with the most reaction videos. The song is from 2004 and was originally sung by the first singer Tarja Turunen. This is Floor Jansen, who has been the temporary help here for 10 months and is now the third singer. This version has a changed ending from the original.
The song is one of the last songs of the concert, which is why there is already a lot of crowd surfing. Some people later complained that security allowed too many people in.
Symphonic Metal is typically European and the USA has a hard time with anything that takes place outside the States.
The Wacken Open Air is one of the largest and oldest metal festivals in the world, in Germany, with around 85,000 visitors. The audience in Wacken is special. Many people have been coming to the festival for years and it is characterized by a friendly atmosphere.
The other singers:
Tarja Turunen:
NIGHTWISH - The Phantom Of The Opera (OFFICIAL LIVE)
Anette Olzon:
NIGHTWISH - Bye Bye Beautiful (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)
The current video:
Nightwish - Tribal (OFFICIAL LIVE)
Other Symphonics:
Within Temptation - Bleed Out (official music video)
VISIONS OF ATLANTIS - Pirates Will Return (Official Live Video) | Napalm Records
EPICA - Storm the Sorrow |Live| (RETROSPECT, 10th Anniversary) ~ 2013 [Full HD]
All Nightwish Numbers are awesome. Some more then others but even their lesser numbers are better then the best songs of other bands! They have both melodic quiet songs and numbers that just explode from the start, I like to shuffle them on my play list.
Hello Ladies and welcome to the phenomenal world of Nightwish! You're eyes when Floor (from Flora, the Goddess of Flowers and Spring) hit that high long note...priceless! 🥰 Gabriel Bardac has already given you a lot of info and those are the videos with the correct speed etc. You can choose any song you like from his list. My favorite of this Wacken 2013 concert, which is absolutely one of the best, is "Song of Myself". But it's your channel, you decide. Have fun discovering them! For now a Happy New Year in advance and hope to see you soon again! Greetings from The Netherlands!
Happy New Year

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), daughter Freja (turns 7 years next march) and a newborn daughter Lucy ,a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Welcome to the beautiful world of Nightwish! They have over 100+ songs of this quality in a huge range of different styles. It is a crime how unknown they are in the US compared to how HUGE they are in the rest of the world
Hi Kathy, Lulu and Donna!
Another Nightwish Army member reporting from The Netherlands!
Enjoy the ride!! It is gonna be MAGICAL!!
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal. The Nightwish Army should be arriving shortly.
16:10 Oh thanks God you let her to speak, taking to consideration that this lady represent most of the audience. 😂❤ She wanted to say so much from the beginning and we wanted to hear her, and descent amount of times she started and you interrupt. ❤❤❤
Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. Wacken 2013 was the concert of the decade of not the century! ANY song will blow you away!
They just dropped their newest gift - Tribal - about a week ago...awesome song and video!
Do a deep dive into metal bands. It'll blow your mind at the talent on display. No auto tune, just pure skill.
Amazing band ... Floor is a master of her voice...really enjoy the 3 of you
I found the video of the full set from this concert, 100% recommend you watch it (not a reaction unless you wish lol). The whole set was amazing and the crowd surfing went from start to end of the set not just this song
Welcome to Nightwish! The singer, Floor Jansen is a classicly trained soprano. She is feckin awesome! I was in that crowd and it was one of the greatest nights I ever had.
Awesome
Hi, FYI Floor was a stand-in singer at this time. Even so she had the audience of 82,000+ in the palm of her hand.
I think its time for a little story . Please do storytime from the same concert and prepare yourself for the Nightwish army.
And Ghost River.
I kinda feel that you can't go wrong with any song from this concert. It holds the same standard imo as Rammstein live in Paris or New York MSG as one of the best concerts I've ever seen. Though going to some Rammstein concert that blew my mind and also messed up my leg once from all the jumping etc I'm envy all the people who saw Nightwish live at this concert.
Floor stands a tad under 6-2 in bare feet, and she's wearing 4 to 5 inch heels here......she's the Valkyrie Goddess.......she's been singing in metal bands since she was 16.......Tuomas Holopainen is the keyboardist, co-founder (in 1996), leader, guru, composer, lyricist, arranger, and producer of 95% of the bands music....he is the Metal Mozart....the audience here was an intimate little gathering of 82,000......the entire 2013 Wacken show is available on both DVD and TH-cam, titled ":Showtime, Storytime".....for more Nightwish, follow Gabriel Bardac's list, and you'll be amazed time after time.......hello from the Nighwish Army, South Carolina, USA
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty:
What you should do:
Listen to Gabriel.
He knows.
Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured three more souls….:-)
It never gets old to see people freeze when our Queen starts to sing….
About Ghost Love Score:
Standing solid as a World Pillar around which the planet revolves, Floor hits "The Note," the crowd loses their shit, the band tears a hole in the fabric of Space-Time, and 82,000 people will never, ever be the same again.
Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries and Stonehenge, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
Looks like three new Nightwish fans !! Love you girls !! This was the 10th song in a 13 song set that night. I'm 75 years young and I wanted to be there too !!
Song 13 in the setlist so the crowd is plumped already :-) Greetings from nwAse Sweden
Floor is ❤️❤️ sings so easy looking and voice like an Angel...
Floor Jansen is a GODDESS!!! The Ultimate Woman!!!
For a great audience check out 'I want my tears back' live from Buenos Aires - 2019.
watching Lulu's face melt and knowing she'll never be the same when it comes to music lol.
I'm 68, and fell in love with Nightwish about 6 months ago!
You guys are going to LOVE Storytime!!
Welcome to the World of Nightwish 😊.
This is just the Begining 😊
NW Army Germany
I discovered this band through a reaction video to this song about a year ago, and it has been life-changing. I hope you will continue to explore them. After you have done this for a while, the singer Floor Jansen has an amazing array of other performances both with other bands, and as a solo artist, and does a wide variety of musical styles that I hope you will check out.
Welcome to the wonderful diverse world of Nightwish. UK Oldies Division of Nightwish army here as a new subscriber. Hope you'll keep on watching and listening. Especially their live recordings. I saw them live at Wembley in November 2022 and it was the most amazing experience. To hear more from them, I suggest you follow Gabriel's list or pick and mix from it. I have followed Nightwish for some time now and have just about every Nightwish recording, live and studio and not a single track I don't like.
We have all been where you were seeing this the first time, and this band (Nightwish) and lead singer Floor Jansen are so beloved by so many for very good reasons. Every song, every performance, a new story, but always awesome.
Great reaction ladies. Loved watching you react to Nightwish, especially to our 6' tall Valkyrie Queen Goddess. This was song 13 of 15 in front of 82,000 people.
Thanks
They sound amazing ! Welcome to NIGHTWISH. !
Consider it Lightning in a Bottle - this particular concert from 2013. Floor is a Master of her instrument and really the reason I showed up today. Ghost Love Score was #13 or 15 on the set list. Other wonderful performance from this show are Ever Dream and Nemo. You'll be encouraged to listen to the entire concert, but unless you're pretty immersed in metal, not all will match this performance.
I don't consider myself a Nightwish fan like the majority of the folks you'll find here. I'm really a fan of Floor's and her solo projects. After first seeing her solo performances from her appearance on the Dutch tv show Beste' Zangers it solidified my fandom of Floor and she introduced me to Nightwish. So, to promote Floor I'm going to take the liberty of posting a selected playlist of live performances that I consider the most enjoyable for me from her catalog of solo projects. Floor's ability to cover a great range of genre's in her solo projects demonstrate her versatility and makes her one of the most engaging vocalists performing today. Even if you're not inclined to 'react' to her music, I encourage you to explore her offerings for your own enjoyment.

Regards,
PS - thank you for sharing this first time reaction. I can't tell you how fun it was watching the expressions on your faces as you experienced this. Gave me pure joy and a great ending personally to 2023.
Floor went on a show called "Beste Zangers" this show really showcases a lot of her talent and range...do yourselves a favot and react to all of these clips from this show ...especially her and Hank Poort doing Phantom of the opera...
Great reaction ladies! Welcome to the Nightwish world and greetings from Finland! A really great band with a massive catalogue and lots of great live performances to check. They are very versatile and stylistically they go all over the map. This song was longer, epic soundtrack style.
Happy New Year
@@KathyLuluandDonna Happy New Year!
Greetings from 🇨🇦, welcome to the world of Nightwish ladies! They go heavier, they go softer ,they go folky , they go everything !! More please lol 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
Hello Ladies, this was song 13 of 15 at this concert and Floor had been singing, head banging, windmilling and dancing for an hour and 10 minutes before this song. All members of Nightwish are great musicians as well as performers.
You can't do wrong reacting to anyone of the songs at this concert.
Enjoy the Nightwish rabbithole!
Welcome to the wonderfull world of Nightwish!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Ladies...you have not seen anything yet ...Her name is Floor Jansen and she is the 3rd singer in this band and for me the best.......Welcome to the Nightwish Journey...Its an amazing ride.
By the way they were the Headliners at WACKEN and that is roughly 82,000 people. Big Audience.
Floor Jansen is going off, the band going off, the crowd and you were going off. Nightwish deserved the many oh my gosh from you🥰. Happy New Year
Happy New Year
Thank you music lover Ladies! (and Kevin and Creg)!🙂👍 Nice that you liked this song and band. Gabriel and others have already put some information with better english so I just say: Hope you will find even little pit of joy their musuc than Nightwish have given to me. Greetings from Finland and Happy New Year to you❤! (by Nightwish fan since 1998)
Happy New Year
Thank you girls 😊
It's always so nice to see ppl get blown away by Nightwish.
As I was 1998 when I saw them for the first time live (in Helsinki, Finland). That time it was with Tarja (original vocalist) as the lead singer.
Nightwish music is unique, for me it doesn't matter who of the ladies (Tarja, Anette or Floor) sings, music remains.
But I enjoy most the current vocalist, Floor. Her versatility is mind blowing.
And welcome to the NW rabbit hole, we have cookies...😂
I can see that Gabriel have been here in the comment section. He have the best links to performances. NW is best live.
Greetings from Norway/Finland 🇳🇴🇫🇮
Don't expect every Nightwish song to be like this. Every song is different and each one an adventure. Stick to live performances from different concerts and you'll hear how versatile they. Happy New year from an 83years old Aussie.
Happy New Year. Thanks for watching.
Hi ladies, what a wonderful reaction! The look of wonder on your faces warmed my heart.
You have so much to look forward to forward to with this amazing band.
General Gabriel of the Nightwish army will give you a link to a list of the best live performances. If you follow that you won’t go far wrong.
Greetings from the UK.
It was a pleasure to watch the 3 of you react to, Nightwish for the first time. It appears you're smitten for Nightwish, love at first sight. Like all of us become once we discover this super superior band of masterful musicians. Subscribing in hopes to catch all your Nightwish reactions. It's going to be difficult to not watch more, after seeing GLS. GoodLuck with that.. LOL
Hello ladies. Nightwish Army Phoenix new subscriber here for you. This was a wonderful reaction to this amazing Nightwish live performance, one of many such performances. Nightwish is always best experienced live. I highly encourage you to read all of Gabriel Bardac's comment and follow the link he provides at the end which will take you to his list of many more amazing Nightwish live performances. Thank you all for this lovely reaction to our beloved Nightwish with our 6'1" (barefoot) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yahn-sen) on female lead vocals. Keep the Nightwish reactions coming.
Thank you for subbing.
Nightwish is an interesting band that went from opera metal with Tarja to a more pop style with Annette and then to a more rock style with Floor. I actually listened to them as far back as when I was in high school. If you like this style you might like Mister Misery, their song Ballad of The Headless Horseman is my go to Halloween song every year.
Now... I recommend starting with the first song of the Wacken 2013 concert -- "Dark Chest of Wonders" -- and just make your way through the set list in order. My very favorite Nightwish songs are in this set list: Ghost River, Dark Chest of Wonders, Ever Dream, Storytime, and Ghost Love Score. Floor Jansen along with the whole band made that concert unbelievably amazing. Divinely inspired performers, all of them.... but especially Ms. Floor Jansen. Goddess, for sure.
You are watching the most reacted to video on YT. There is a very good reason for it 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
She is Queen of everything 😍
Welcome to Nightwish Symphonic Metal!! 🎸🤘
Beautiful music at your horizon finally ❤
And always jealous when someone hearing Nightwish for the first time!
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!!
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!!
Welcome aboard the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic every time .
Sensory overload..NW style!!🤘🤘👍👍
Pretty sure I witnessed mom and grandma experience their first Floorgasm during the last 2 minutes of the song.
(I still get them every time I listen to this song, and I’ve listened to it over 1000 times easily)
Ladies, the next one is normally "Storytime" from the same concert in Wacken.
Wacken is a small town, just under 2,000 inhabitants. There is a fun story. When the first festival was to start, nobody realy knew what to expect (it is a heavy metal festival in the North of Germany). It is told, that suddenly motorbikes with wild looking guys and gals thundered into the small, quiet town.
The inhabitants sought shelter against that dangerous looking people. There was a little old lady on her way home from the grocery store, heavy ladden with goods. Suddenly a wild and dangerous looking man, climbs off his bike walks to the lady and says: Madam can I help you carrying yout stuff home??
She was pleased and allowed him to help. That sealed a friendship for years and those "dangeous" people are very welcome to this day. Never was there real violence at this festival, at least to my knowledge. A few accidents, but no violence.
Nightwish live shows are one of the best that I've ever seen! And I've seen a number of rock/metal concerts...
If you have chance, definitely go to their concert! It will be a live experience, believe me!
I was watching the thumbnail,and Lulu had a look over her like she found a new religion. What can i tell you,i had the exact same look over me when i first saw Floor (and heard her of course *ahem*) We tend to compliment her in a comedic way by calling her a Norse Goddess (she has many petnames!) I love Nightwish above most bands,and that way before Floor Jansen came in. I love every member,past and present these days,i didnt always use to. I used to be abit ignorant towards theyr 2nd vocalist,i guess i was just so worried that Nightwish would never be the same again,and i did not listen for her strengths.
Floor Jansen is with Tuomas Holopainens own words: The third and final vocalist for Nightwish,if something unexpected happens with her,or she leaves then Nightwish departs completely as a band.
Tuomas is the composing,song writing genius at the keyboard,for many he is the mastermind behind theyr success. And i think Tuomas said this also as a complimentary thing towards Floor,that there are not anyone out there that could replace her vocals and personality at this point. (He is also tired of losing vocalists,and noone can blame him there,but with Floor in they are all smiles and seems like the most connected family,so it really seems like they were meant to be from the start) The story of Nightwish as a band can be seen over several documentaries,and it really gives you a deeper meaning and appreciation towards the band,and every member.
They truly have something special there. And when theyr lineup was like this at Wacken Open Air in 2013,other bands supporters were jealous of Nightwish`s lineup. That jealousy became even more impactful when British multi instrumentalist Troy Donockley joined them,pretty much because of Floor Jansen joining them permanently,as Troy had been working with Tuomas before this on records,and helping them on tour. But Troy didnt really vibe with the previous lead singers,but after Floor arrived he wanted to join permanently too,wich says alot.
Im not gonna write too too much,but i just notified my allies in The Nightwish Army,so you are about to be raided. I can see the numbers already jumping up,so prepare for alot of information and love. Great Reaction as always!
Lulu,dont giggle but the guitarist`s artist name (because his birth name is too long and complicated for US fans) is Empuu (Yup,"Empoo",you heard right) Alot of ladies like him,we call him The Hobbit,because he is soo much shorter then everyone else,and loves to prank the other members. Now im gonna zip it,i promise. 13:12 Oh,and thats why we call Floor a Goddess also,her LONG high power notes!
When people ask me what I love about music, I play them this song. It covers so much ground.
Great creation ladies! Keep going with Storytime, you will love it
Thank you so much!
Nightwish Army, Jacksonville Fl. division checking in. Great reaction ladies. I enjoyed your enthusiasm. Hope you will do more Nightwish. Subscribed.
Thanks for subbing. We have one coming out next week.
Nightwish Army Turku, Finland here. Very nice reaction, thank you! Just Nightwish doing Nightwish things! And as you have surely noticed, although they are all outstanding , none of them standout. Nightwish is their own genre and no other band comes close to the level they are at. Enjoy the journey!
You just stumbled on a big gem! Nightwish is amazing!!!!
Welcome ladies to a band that delivers Epic music. They are a collective of very talented musicians in their own right, who play for the music. No showoffs here. The music they play is 95% written by the keyboardist Tuomas. Welcome from eastern North Carolina.
Happy New Year.
Was lucky enough to see them live during their 2016 North American tour. What a great show!
Welcome to the Nightwish family, ladies!
Gabriel has a list of songs by nightwish, with links to the best live performances at the bottom of his comments. Can't go wrong by not knowing witch one to pick. Enjoy your ride, it's mind blowing what FLOOR JANSEN and the band can do.
Epic! One of my absolute favorite sympnonic metal bands and performances.
