Hellooo guys! Thanks for all your supportive and nice comments as always! It's really a pleasure to read your comments! Because of how many there, to keep my sanity I cannot respond to everybody, but in the first few days, under each video, I try to read every one of them! Just know they are all super appreciated 🤘❤
I am 50 yrs old and I have seen a lot of the great bands in my time but NW is on a different level . In my opinion they are the greatest band in the world . I saw the great Freddie Mercury and Queen when I was 9 yrs old with my moms and pops for my first concert . This is the first band that I have seen since than that I can say they took the torch and ran with it .
In a recent interview with Floor she was asked who would she like to sing with from ANYBODY across time, she instantly responded with Freddie Mercury. You'd expect when asked this question for a singer to think about it more, but so many just know Mercury was the GOAT.
Wow a great reaction and even better evaluation. I learned about lower registry and just how effortless she sounds despite the song itself. The song is much like the band going into and out of different sounds effortlessly and they are so tight that you truly forget that this is a LIVE performance. Tuomas has to be thrilled at how a lot of the older songs are getting the updated 2.0 Floor version treatment. This concert performance was the rare experience where each and every member of the band were in perfect sync with their A+ game and the crowd responded to every note and every display from the stage. Thanks for another great response, so happy you decided to do this as they are really well worth time for some real fan reactions as well as some real great explanation from the professional side!!!
Hey thanks! Super happy you apreciated my take on that one! :D It it true that they are extremely tight, they almost sound like a produced recording right out of the live performance, it's incredible! They also have so much experience to back themselves up!
EXACTLYYYYYY To me high notes are not the most impressive! God sound and consistency and resonnance in the core range is sooooo overlooked, as well as the low range!!! High notes are like candies, they are good but they are not the main course!
Floor can hit those low notes because she is hugely tall and her vocal cords will be long in proportion. The highest part of her range is clearly a product of training and technique. And lets not forget Marco who also has immense vocal power and is a perfect complement to her sound. And as for the band - could they be any tighter rhythmically? Even the joker Emppu, for all his fun and kidding with the audience never misses a beat.
You might enjoy reacting to Nemo, the version from the vehicle of spirit bonus DVD. It's a little dark at times but there are some really excellent close ups of her singing, where her jaw and mouth movements are very visible. She hits one of those power low notes near the end too, always give me chills.
I realize you have no chance of reading all the hundreds of comments you get. Still, when you're old and retired, you might find this comment. I just want to say that I love your reactions, you have a .. I don't know ... freshness? enthusiasm? about you that's very refreshing. Please keep the reactions coming.
Dang it! 667 :) Nice reaction. I think one of the special things about this particular concert is that people enjoy watching the band get into it and enjoy themselves.
Tuomas is referencing a lot of his other songs here. To me, this is what I think of as their "Metal" song. The other stuff is what I think of as symphonic rock. Floor is a mezzo, with BENEFITS!
Yeah, great Nightwish song again, presented by a great reviewer:-) have to agree with Ann some comments below, one of my favourite Nightwish songs too! Interesting to hear that you think you can't sing the low notes... but Floors vocal range is indeed incredible! By the way, very nice shirt, suits perfectly to your hair:-)
Thanks! Really happy you enjoyed!! :D It IS a great song, really!! Yeah no, even if technically I hit them, they sound very weak, I don't have any resonance left there and I don't sound believable, that's just what it is! And it's a physiology thing, not a training thing, in this case! I don't have the system to amplify these notes nicely, they'll always sound weak and dull, they're off my usable range!
Yes Soprano but you can hear she goes down to Alto and possibly even Contralto with that super low note you tried to get to.. Definitely Coloratura, although Floor would not agree b/c she doesn't want her vocal range spoken of in opera terms.
It helps to be born with unlimited talent, but you know she definitely worked her ass off also. Loved your Ghost Love Score cover, btw. You should definitely do more.
Ms elvann...I would like to apologize to you for my comments about you and your reaction a few days ago...maybe inappropriate and offensive....I was only expressing the affects you gave to me at the time....I thought I kept it clean as I described aspects of you and your reaction...guess I could have summed it in a word (adorable) and left it at that...so am sorry n would you keep me as a fan...mr. ross... good words..as you didn't beat me up...but made it clear that I was inappropriate...my apology to you as well...ok...elvann...not many people are showing within temptation love...will you???
Can you tell me why this is your favorite Nightwish song? Which elements make it your favorite? It ranks very high up there for me as well but I think I like Storytime just a bit better. But, I'm curious why you - Nightwish Mama - prefer this one. :)
@@fnglert I love how Tuomas put the most beautiful music over those lyrics. I know a lot of the lyrics are based from the Walt Whitman poem. In the second half of that song the music and the different people reciting the words with the music it just goes to my heart and soul............ :-)
We need a little more appreciation for Marco!! I can't think of another band with two singers as strong as these two. As great as Floor is everything ramps up to eleven when he joins in!
Floor has a greater range than any Intercontinental Ballistic missile on earth! Her ability to sustain such powerful notes is now something of Legend. Floor is truly Odin and Freyja's favorite Angel of Music! She can not be of this Earth with this incredible list of talents!
Hahaha. Did you have fun reviewing this! 🤣🤣 looks like you did! It’s an amazing song and one of my favourites! So glad you reacted to it. Every performance by the whole band takes you on a journey. Emotionally, audibly and visually. Fire!!! Who doesn’t love fire at a concert!!. Floor is just Floor. F*cking flawless - every time! You can never tire of listening to her voice. The control and expression she has. It puts you into a trance! You are right that it sounds easy to her. It sounds easy to them all as a whole.... the machine which is Nightwish. They obviously love what they do.
ok, it is a bird. wasn't sure. "is that a bird or a baby?" was my thought. Awesome again! That's just Floor, doing Floor things, that no one else can do. Why she is the Queen!
Her Eb2 was vocal fry. Her highest note is F6 (she hit it in Ilossarock live i think in Romanticide. Anyway her supported controlled range which was recorded is from D3 to D6/Eb6.
Thank you I thought her beginning phrases in the Contralto and Alto ranges on this song, combined with her high Soprano ranges on the other songs gave her four octaves.
She's been fronting metal bands for 23 years and she started when she was 16 years old. She walked on stage at 16 and was a natural. She looked like she was born on stage. Of course, she's still doing it.
FLOOR JANSEN IS A GODDESS........ YOUR VOICE COME FROM THE SKIES........ PLEASE YOUR COMMENTS IN ENGLISH I CANT UNDERSTAND....... INTRODUCE SUBTITLES ....PLEASE.... THANK YOU BEAUTY My country is ARGENTINA THANK YOU
Floor is typically classified as a dramatic soprano because even thought she has lots of power and resonance in the lower register, she can still sustain high notes with lots of power (such as the seven second D6 she did in Phantom). That said I do think her chest resonance and mixed voice resonance are more mind blowing than her head resonance is, and I think her choices in how she approaches songs reflects her being of a similar opinion.
I really had NO idea there was such a variety of classifications of voices. Soprano, OK. Pop Soprano vs Rock Soprano vs Opera Soprano, OK. The rest? WHAT? I had no idea. I did not have the opportunity to study music enough while I was in school. Of course, what you are talking about in this thread makes sense as I think about it more, I just didn't know. Thanks for teaching me something new, all of you. :)
@@jamescurfman3284 You might want to look up "dramatic soprano" "lyrical soprano", "light lyrical soprano" and "soubrette" if you're interested. Those are the main classifications for high female voices.
6:50 `Effortless' is probably the word you were looking for when you're describing Floor's singing. Combined with her warm sounding voice that, unlike many other sopranos, never becomes shrill when she hits the high notes, her vocal range and allround versatility makes her such a well loved singer.
Stargazers is I think the only one where she consistently stays in head. Thinking about it, this may also be the one where there is a chance to assess her classical tone with deeper notes.
Just watching Floor performing this song is something else. Not only is the song a masterpiece but how she moves, her eyes, her body, her voice, what she does when she is not singing, it's amazing.
That last section of the song has a Led Zeppelin Kashmir vibe. Not a rip off, but I can hear the influence there, but the vocals and percussion make its own thing.
Floor Jansen and "Oi Jouluyö", that is an awesome soprano song! Singing in finnish of a song "O Holy Night". Christmas is comin, so proper one for that. Subbed!
If you wanna see her Soprano range, i'd suggest this video --> th-cam.com/video/Od_qcbw3f5Q/w-d-xo.html She sings Puccini: O mio babbino caro and it is as good as you already imagine it right nowm the only "complaint" its way too short :) The link i provided has subtitles, the song and a bit of interview. Ty for the reaction yet again Elvann :D (And really, check out this Aria!!)
I finally figured out why I like watching your reaction video's. It's your enthusiasm and how you are clearly enjoying watching the performance, it's just a joy to see. Please keep doing these video's!
You have seen nothing if you haven't been to (finnish) karaoke with me. I try to sing all the possible Nightwish songs I can. No apologies. hahahaha XD
@@ElvannReacts I haven't been to a proper Finnish karaoke yet, but I did enjoy some karaoke on a quiet Tuesday night in Rauma. I even sang 'Du Hast' from Rammstein. I'd love to see you sing karaoke, when are we going? ;)
I think we need just add new type of voice - soprano, mezzo-soprano, contralto and Floor who can sing all what she wants ) Hello from NW army Ukraine 🤟 💙💛
Please react to Dimash Kudaibergen - S.O.S Slavic Bazaar th-cam.com/video/W29zEuZVaxs/w-d-xo.html I'm sure you gonna love him. He is 25 year old classical trained (since age 5) singer from kazakhstan. His vocal range is over six octaves and he can sing any genre he wants. Many vocal coaches and professional singers says that he is the best singer in the world tody.
She sounds like a soprano to me. She has a huge range. I've been listening to many of your reactions today, but somehow you always seem to compliment her qualified, or questioning something.
I could be wrong on this but I think Floor said on an interview that she is not a Soprano or at least she’s not trying to be one (very possible that I misunderstood) Also you mentioned the writing ... Much of it is from Walt Whitman’s poem “song of myself”
If you really want to analyze her classical voice, you need to listen to a piece that was not worked over by a sound engineer, like the "O mio babbino caro" she did for a TV show once.
When she touches her low register in the beginning, then hits that high note at the end, it sounds like 4 octaves to me. Do you have a keyboard to confirm my guess? I have relative perfect pitch but not true perfect pitch.
Thank you Elvann !! Amazing Floor. As always fantastically and flawlessly performing band. One of my Favorite songs. Awesome Reaction !!! What else can I ask for...!! 🙂🤘
Ahh... you glanced away from the video and missed the best part. At the end when she refraining that last verse in her high soprano, she times her physical gestures perfectly to give the impression that she is conjuring the flames. Go back and watch again. Just part of her superior showmanship. These live performances are so much better than listening to the studio recordings; the energy is off the charts while the musicianship is every bit as good a the best take in the studio.
You said it seems like she’s warmed up. If I recall correctly, they did this right after “Ghost Love Score”. That’d get you warmed up! Of course it’s been a while since I watched the whole concert so I could be wrong.
Yep, this was after GLS, they did GLS, this and then Last Ride of the Day as an "encore" type thing. This is about 80 minutes into the show. You can definitely tell she's warming up gradually. Even by Ever Dream, around 20 minutes in she has bits where you can tell. Storytime is the first one where she sounds 100% I think.
You certainly are right about the 'range' the voice of Floor can cover. How 'powerful' her voice really is, she surely showed on this song. Good comments, Elvann
One of many things to note is how Floor Jansen manage to remember the distortion at 7:08(Resting pipes, verse of BORE) AND at 8:31 moving her hands upwards to demand flames to come.
@@ElvannReacts By the way, your reactions are very insightful and often entertaining. I think it is necessary to interrupt the songs to avoid being blocked by You Tube, but I appreciate that your interruptions are brief and straight to the point so that the ambience of the song is not lost.
love the reaction keep working on the growl :-) I love Floor she turns me into a emotional wreck most of the time bless her but what a vocal range and with Thoumas writing match made in heaven love Nightwish :-)
tuomas's progression from cheesey power metal, hey all power metal is cheesey right :), to epic score metal is pretty remarkable. i think getting the likes of kip williams for the orchestrations and troy donkely on the arrangements needs to be acknowledged. further, i think as much as i think the "we miss tarja" can be put to bed, the same should be with kai and jukka. jukka bangs like john bonham but kai has a jazz edge and seems more nimbler on the kit like a bill bruford or phil collins. and marco's vocals are an excellent counterpoint to floor. emppu continues to be tasty.
Im from Finland and I have seen Nightwish in live many times. Thank you for your reactions...waiting for your next reactions:) I think Floor is the best singer so far....
Hello, see this extraordinary singer has been a big influence on many rock and roll singers like Floor Jansen, Marco Hietala. Video Title Amazing Live Vocal Showcases, Part 1 - Ronnie James Dio (Tokyo, 1985)

Floor: Yes
Haha haha yeahhh! Yes!
such a good song and for them it shows what kind of music they can compose very cool they sure know how to set a vibe
Thanks again for another wonderful reaction 😁 You’ve GOT to see Yours is an Empty Hope 😉 There are death growls you won’t believe 😈
ooooo I can't wait to watch that one too then!
This concert was amazing, Nightwish with Floor hit full stride in this performance. The stars all aligned and they flat out nailed it.
"Her voice sounds like butter."
I understood that

amazing to think about. 2 of the 3 longest songs in their catalog, at the time of this performance, back to back. hell of a set list for this show.
Good reaction and finally some recognition for her low notes. I feel like people generally don't appreciate them as much as they should.
EXACTLYYYYYY

It's a cockatiel actually! ;) Makes it annoying to record vocals properly, but also he's very adorable XD
According to an post on Quora, in performances, Floor has gone as low as Eb2 and as high as E6. Which frankly, is insane, Four octaves.
Her Eb2 was vocal fry. Her highest note is F6 (she hit it in Ilossarock live i think in Romanticide. Anyway her supported controlled range which was recorded is from D3 to D6/Eb6.
Thank you, Floor reached both those ranges in this song but I wasn't really sure of the octave spread.
Thank you I thought her beginning phrases in the Contralto and Alto ranges on this song, combined with her high Soprano ranges on the other songs gave her four octaves.
Hmmm, Moomin characters, Iittala Taika Mug and Nightwish music, ... 🤔

Yeah, I think she is more solid there, most definitely!
Someone called her a Wagnerian Soprano. Maybe she is a Dramatic Soprano. I don't know.
I read she's a wagnerian soprano because of her really high notes and her very deep notes too while mantaining the power and support behind.
Yeahe, I think that must be what she is!

I think we need just add new type of voice - soprano, mezzo-soprano, contralto and Floor who can sing all what she wants ) Hello from NW army Ukraine 🤟 💙💛
Please react to Dimash Kudaibergen - S.O.S Slavic Bazaar th-cam.com/video/W29zEuZVaxs/w-d-xo.html I'm sure you gonna love him. He is 25 year old classical trained (since age 5) singer from kazakhstan. His vocal range is over six octaves and he can sing any genre he wants. Many vocal coaches and professional singers says that he is the best singer in the world tody.
She sounds like a soprano to me. She has a huge range. I've been listening to many of your reactions today, but somehow you always seem to compliment her qualified, or questioning something.
I could be wrong on this but I think Floor said on an interview that she is not a Soprano or at least she’s not trying to be one (very possible that I misunderstood)
Also you mentioned the writing ... Much of it is from Walt Whitman’s poem “song of myself”
I hope you check out some Epica sometime. Their 10th Anniversary show is chock full of good material. :)
If you really want to analyze her classical voice, you need to listen to a piece that was not worked over by a sound engineer, like the "O mio babbino caro" she did for a TV show once.
When she touches her low register in the beginning, then hits that high note at the end, it sounds like 4 octaves to me. Do you have a keyboard to confirm my guess? I have relative perfect pitch but not true perfect pitch.
Floor the Valkyrie
Thank you Elvann !! Amazing Floor. As always fantastically and flawlessly performing band. One of my Favorite songs. Awesome Reaction !!! What else can I ask for...!! 🙂🤘
well she has been working towards this since she was sixteen adolescent to adulthood she and nightwish deserve all the credit here spectacular
Sorry elvann, what Kind of soprano is Floor? In my opinion, alto or belcanto..or i totally wrong🤔
NIGHTWISH - Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean Buenos Aires (on new December 2019 album)
Ahh... you glanced away from the video and missed the best part. At the end when she refraining that last verse in her high soprano, she times her physical gestures perfectly to give the impression that she is conjuring the flames. Go back and watch again. Just part of her superior showmanship. These live performances are so much better than listening to the studio recordings; the energy is off the charts while the musicianship is every bit as good a the best take in the studio.
You said it seems like she’s warmed up.
If I recall correctly, they did this right after “Ghost Love Score”. That’d get you warmed up! Of course it’s been a while since I watched the whole concert so I could be wrong.
her voice got stronger during the concert. i first thought it was an engineering trick.
Yep, this was after GLS, they did GLS, this and then Last Ride of the Day as an "encore" type thing. This is about 80 minutes into the show. You can definitely tell she's warming up gradually. Even by Ever Dream, around 20 minutes in she has bits where you can tell. Storytime is the first one where she sounds 100% I think.
You certainly are right about the 'range' the voice of Floor can cover. How 'powerful' her voice really is, she surely showed on this song. Good comments, Elvann
Skweak : it's not a bird but it is Floor with Simone Simons : at 2:22 th-cam.com/video/LjvXo5GRvxI/w-d-xo.html
😂 Warmed up AFTER Ghost love score😂
You get so much more with FLOOR , a Goddes that only gives fun and good feelings 😁👍👩🏻🎤❤️
Floor Jansen is a soprano with a range of more than three octaves (D3 to F6).
One of many things to note is how Floor Jansen manage to remember the distortion at 7:08(Resting pipes, verse of BORE)
AND
at 8:31 moving her hands upwards to demand flames to come.

Yess that one's on my todo! ;)
@@ElvannReacts By the way, your reactions are very insightful and often entertaining. I think it is necessary to interrupt the songs to avoid being blocked by You Tube, but I appreciate that your interruptions are brief and straight to the point so that the ambience of the song is not lost.
love the reaction keep working on the growl :-) I love Floor she turns me into a emotional wreck most of the time bless her but what a vocal range and with Thoumas writing match made in heaven love Nightwish :-)
tuomas's progression from cheesey power metal, hey all power metal is cheesey right :), to epic score metal is pretty remarkable. i think getting the likes of kip williams for the orchestrations and troy donkely on the arrangements needs to be acknowledged. further, i think as much as i think the "we miss tarja" can be put to bed, the same should be with kai and jukka. jukka bangs like john bonham but kai has a jazz edge and seems more nimbler on the kit like a bill bruford or phil collins. and marco's vocals are an excellent counterpoint to floor. emppu continues to be tasty.
Im from Finland and I have seen Nightwish in live many times. Thank you for your reactions...waiting for your next reactions:) I think Floor is the best singer so far....
Kind of ruins the premise of a reaction video if you've seen it before.
Hello, see this extraordinary singer has been a big influence on many rock and roll singers like Floor Jansen, Marco Hietala.

@@luisnunes2010 I want to see Bruce and Floor trading vocal blows one day.
@@ChrisPage68 That makes you, me and all metalheads in existence... Heck, her and Eric Adams would be enough. The amps might not survive.
I know reaction pause but really way too much
