Hello GINX [ @ginxmediaproductions ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
Welcome [ BACK ] 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
🤘
Hello Gabriel! Thank you for such great insight to the history of the band and the link to all of your suggestions! I am so happy to have fallen into the Nightwish rabbit hole!
@@ginxreacts LOL... Told you so!
Nice to see you here General Gabe :) happy new year
Dear Gabriel, always good to see you Sir!
@gabriel_bardac It's probable that your posting this information to Nightwish reaction videos has contributed more happiness to the world than everything I have ever done in my 55+ years combined. I hope to still see your comments being posted a decade from now.
Singers sing what they can, Floor sings what she wants ❤once she sang the phonebook in a Dutch show ❤

I love the genuine YOU that you bring to your reactions. Your pauses to hunt for expression, your joy. It lets me experience it for the first time again and I thank you.
Plus the bonus of the tech nerd audio pro letting me in on yet another aspect of the performance.
The drums are "thuddy." Perfect.
Thank you so much! ☺️
You just heard Floor Jansen who is the 3rd and current singer of Nightwish. Tarja Turunen 1997-2005, Anette Olzen 2005-2012, Floor took over late 2012 and had only been with the band for 10 months when this festival took place. Not sure how long ago you heard Nightwish so it could have been with one of the other singers. Floors previous bands were After Forever 1997-2009, Revamp 2009-2016 (sort of). Check out Romanticide next from the same concert at Wacken (Vahkan). Trivia, Wacken is a German town of 2000 people who get invaded by 80,000+ metal fans for 4 days a year.
Hello GINX
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.
Thank you!☺️
Experiencing Jukka Nevalainen on those drums is like experiencing a beautiful ballet. He is a machine! Every artist on that stage is phenomenal, and performs to perfection, but I wish there would’ve been a camera making a video of him the entire time! I would love to see it. This is EPIC!
Isn't there a video of Jukka? I think, but can't remember, just search in TH-cam for Jukka
Now you've gone and done it. The Nightwish army is about to descend on you. You'll get a comment from a guy named Gabriel... He'll give you a full rundown of the band's history and links to his compilation of links to the songs.
This guy is a great resource when you are asking yourself "where do I go next with this band". Enjoy the ride!
Oh my! Hehe, I am glad I have fallen upon the Nightwish rabbit hole, and very much look forward to the journey🥰
I Can't Believe this..... I Actually BEAT "General Gabe" to a New Reactor!!!! Whoopee!!!
@@kevinjennings238 JAY....Congrats!!!👌🤟
Hey GINX!!! It's Cool to see an Audio Tech, React to this show!!! I'm a former Rock Singer from the 80-90s, who also did some Sound Board work for other bands. I have been Amazed at the Quality & Crispness that these Techs Created!!! True Professional GENIUS!!!
ALSO, here's some FYI.... The Venue is Pronounced "VAH-ken", in Germany.
The Singer's name is Floor Jansen (say: YAN-son)
You'll be getting a Comment from the "Nightwish Army's" Unofficial "General", GABRIEL, from Romania! As the guys below said, He will give you a Paragraph of "Intro-Info"!!!
Be sure to Pin his comment, so that Following Army Members won't Keep Telling you to Watch for Him!
BTW, YOU are the 3rd, out of about 300 Reactors I've watched, who Actually NOTICED the guy in the Crowd that Licked his hand, then Wiped his Eyes! Someone said, "Boy, you can tell that this was BEFORE Covid!!!" Well, when you have dirt in your eyes......
~~~ I'm Your Newest SUB, "Daytona Snooper*
Thank you so much for being here, and some of your insight, I’m so glad to be in the Nightwish rabbit hole ☺️
I love how genuinely happy this made you. I've watched this performance 100's of times, almost daily for years and years and even with that type of desensitization I still, to this day, feel how you just felt. First time or thousandth time, this song is still magic, and Floor's performance in this version is now legendary. Please keep going... there's lots to love here and I'm sure the NW Army will show up to show support for you and their band! :)
☺️
Welcome to the magical world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. This is one of the most epic live performances EVER. Glad you liked, and greetings from Finland! ⛄👍
Aye! Welcone and glad you enjoyed it, biw prepare for the Nightwish army to arrive shortly. Greetings from Finland aswell!

I Can't Believe this..... I Actually BEAT "General Gabe" to a New Reactor!!!! Whoopee!!!
🤘 Good morning to you too!
Yeeeah, crowdsurfing🥰 We also let guys in wheelchairs crowdsurf, it's awesome!
Yeah, Floor sounds like an angel, but she can sing operatic, rock, screams and grunts...don't be fooled😂 Please continu with Nightwish, every song is sooo different. Fromsymphonic- trash Metal to folky. Floor was a stand in singer at this concert in 2013 and she made this song her own. They are all so tallented and have so much fun on stage.
Ah... an audio Engr, or Tech? I missed that part.
(a)As far as setups for the band on stage, I believe there is a YT video by 'Gear Gods Rigged' (YT= 6dhSkfbHXJc) where the Nightwish stage crew goes over the setup for each member... not so much the layout of the stage, but a very high-level intro in to the gear and the signal chain.
(b) As for the song structure and how it relates to the sonic production, here's one minor point : when the singer (Floor) is doing the more verse-like story telling portion, notice how the instruments that might compete with her vocal range (mostly the distorted guitar pull WAY BACK, allowing her free-reign in the 300-800 Hz spectrum
The bass runs far below her range, and the keys are pulled back-but-present frequently in the 600-n-up range.
When Floor shifts to the more powerful, legato lines, then the guitar comes in with a simple rhythmic part... not busy, not competing for the ear's attention.
(c) Next one? Without forcing you down a rabbithole?
Well.. why don't you see how the concert *started* ?
Try "Dark Chest of Wonders" from the same Wacken concert ("VAH-kehn"...it's German)
From a guy who helped build 6 figure pipe organ bitd, who worked on sub-human-audio-range frequencies (2-12 Hz while working on the first AED), who hellped create simulators/design software from Full Custom IC's the analyzing noise on circuit boards to designing less-electrically-noisy bits of electronic kit... and them folded up that career and became a dentist/full-time-faculty/then-small-time-rural dentist.
Take it from me... this IS one rabbithole worth investigating.

Thank you for all of this wonderful insight!!
To answer your question about audio engineer vs tech…in the Live audio pro world I was more of a tech, I am now a full time audio engineer currently producing/recording/editing podcasts audiobooks and VO projects for clients, and am working toward more of a focus on sound design, post production editing for film/media
And oh my!! I am freakin stoked to check out the Gear Gods Rigged video, thank you!
Top 10 reaction. Thank you. Very much enjoyed it.
Cheers from Germany 🤘😎
Oh my!! Thank you so much!☺️
👍👍Awesome live performance!! 🖖❤

Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
of her vocals.
We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.
ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready!

Floor has actually talked about this on her youtube channel. At first ahe brought two dragons with her from her realm but unfortunately the dragons didn’t like it here so they had to return. Fortunately she likes it here so she’s planning on staying but sometimes she goes back home to visit her dragon friends.
I really recommend visiting her channel because shes doing alot of fun stuff and also some really good covers and also har amazing solo stuff!
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: ‘Energize me’; Monolith of Doubt’ and Dreamflight’.
Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera).
'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: ‘Misery’s no Crime’, ‘Wild card’ and ‘Disdain’.
Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ‘Please learn the setlist in 48 hours’
Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see.
Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on TH-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa’ and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered TH-cam in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish.
Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of these and other presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughters Freja (turns 7 years next march) and Lucy (born last october) ,a couple of horses, dogs and cats, she found this.
Disdain live is fantastic
Nightwish Army walked in...
☺️and I am so so grateful!
Nightwish always makes me happy❤
@GINX Media: As an audio engineer, you should know that this performance not only is the most viewed on the internet, but that the entire Nightwish Wacken 2013 concert is considered by many, including me, to be the best concert ever recorded. For whatever reason, the sound balance was so good, you could not get a more perfect balance if you tried. And, Nightwish was the headlining band on Day 4 of the Wacken festival in 2013, so this concert was the last concert of the festival.
Put it this way: If a concert needed a solar alignment with the planets, Nightwish certainly got that at Wacken 2013.
I love this so much, thank you for sharing. And I truly believe all of this, just from seeing this one song. The audio is absolutely PRISTINE
After more than 10 years of this performance it is still my absolute favorite song of all time: always in my playlists, always on repeat and always enjoyable. 100% pure awesomeness!
Welcome back to Nightwish! This may not be the vocalist you may remember. This is Floor Jansen, the Queen. She is their third vocalist. Enjoy reacquainting yourself!🤘🎸There are 82,000 fans!
Floor had told in multiple interviews how special Wacken 2013 was for her, and in particular Gost Love Score. She really feels the energy of the audience, which is why she often thanks the audience after a song.
So awesome!
HI FROM SHEFFIELD YORKSHIRE ENGLAND IV BEEN LISTING TO METAL SINCE A TEEN AND ONLY DISCOVERD FLOOR AND NIGHTWISH A COUPLE OF YEARS
BUT NIGHTWISH ARE JUST A DIFFERENT BEAST AND FLOOR WOW NOTHING LIKE HER
Forgotten to mention I love the sound from the drummer. Their crew is top notch. Kudos the all the techs.
Crewish, the unsung heros, thay have their own albums too... :)
Yeah, this performance has everything: awesome song writing, great lyrics, amazing vocals, a brilliant band, really good quality live audio, visuals, lighting! An epic journey.

Hi JINX (I’ll just call you JINX, may I?), I absolutely loved your reaction for multiple reasons. Given the very brief insight of your background I’m pleased to know that you’re not just making shit up. You know what you’re talking about. This is the first time I heard someone not just talking about the energy of Jukka, Nightwish’s drummer at the time, but you were focused on the sound! That’s a first. I’m ashamed to admit that I became addicted to reaction videos, which still amazes me, because it’s a ridiculous concept, but because of that fact I must have seen at least a thousand reactions on this video alone (I loosely calculated an average of 1 Ghost Love Score reaction video per day since the beginning of 2021 - I can’t help myself).
You seem like a genuinely sweet, yet no BS woman with the brightest and most infectious smile and your eyes reflect honesty, integrity, intelligence, wit, an open mind and a pure heart.
I’m sure the Nightwish army will welcome you with open arms.
I’m probably not their biggest fan, given the fact that I don’t necessarily love literally everything they’ve done, but they’re up there. It’s telling that it’s hard to find favorites among all of their songs, because most of them are so good and only a tiny handful of them are… well, less good (in my own personal and meaningless opinion).
Not everyone would agree, but to me a good Nightwish song, belonging to the very best, needs to have two conditions: 1) by preference it should be recorded live under the best circumstances and 2) if it’s not sung by Floor Jansen it won’t move me (at least not in a good way). AND PLEASE DON’T KILL ME, my fellow Nightwish lovers. 😬
If I really had to pick a favorite (this is hard, so I’ll pick three), it would probably be:
1- Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean (live in Buenos Aires 2018).
2- Yours is an empty hope (Wembley 2015)
3- Song of Myself (Wacken 2013 … however, if you like poetry, there’s also a video of the same concert, followed by more music written by Tuomas, the composer of most of their music, and some great poetry. It IS part of the music - a lot of Nightwish fans would appreciate this version, since only a few of them ever reacted to it, even though the ‘song part’ is exactly the same.
Well…, that’s about it.
I just thought “a long reaction video deserves long responses”. 😬
Sorry for that! ❤😊
And just like that the Valkyrie Goddess snags another soul.
Curious, if you were listening 15 years ago, you may not have heard Floor with Nightwish before, she replaced their 2nd singer Anette on this tour about 10 months before this concert, possibly you've mostly heard the first (very operatic voice) singer Tarjia?
Anyway, welcome to the Rabbit Hole, let us know when it's Storytime!
Welcome to the Army. You are going to fit right in!
Thank you!!☺️
"Her voice! ..."
So symptomatic, that you almost sadly complained about her voice :)) (8:22)
If you did see them 15 years ago it would’ve been a previous singer. The one in this video was only singing with the band for approximately 10 months before this video.
I actually confirmed I didn’t see them live, tho based on the background info, I was introduced to them and listened while the lead would have been Tarja

Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, très bonne réaction et analyse à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Vous venez de faire connaissance du métal symphonique et de notre reine Floor, mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Continuez sur le festival du Wacken Open Air 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe. Cette chanson est la 13 sur les 15 du set complet, ensuite toujours dans le même concert, faites le Ever Dream qui commence comme une douce ballade voix piano et sur un signe de Marko ( le bassiste ) continue d'accélérer pour finir comme un train à grande vitesse, puis essayez le Storytime, un excellent rock comme on les aime, avec une bonne surprise avant la fin de la chanson ou alors du plus lourd avec Ghost River pour entendre le mélange des voix de Floor avec Marko ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu ( Un grand MERCI à Gabriel d'avoir repris le flambeau de notre regrettée Anne ) cliquez sur son nom et allez sur communauté, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec le meilleur audio mais ce n'est pas une obligation, juste un sage conseil pour entendre une petite partie du meilleur du groupe. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir, plus de NIGHTWISH s'il vous plait ........ Merci et à bientôt. Bonne écoute et un nouvel abonné ici.......Paix sur vous mon amie.
Thank you for all of this! So glad to be entering the Nightwish rabbit hole!
@@ginxreacts J'attends votre prochaine réaction avec beaucoup d'impatience, à bientôt.....

Same here! 😄
Yup, same here, i just follow along!
Glad you decided to react to this band,This is with their 3rd singer Floor Jansen,a 6’1” Dutch vocal beast..They’re definitely a band that are better live,their studio stuff is good but it’s their live performances where they shine…they go from operatic though to rock,folk,Celtic and on to thrash and everything in between,hope you decide to dip your toe into some more..if you do then definitely use Gabriel’s list as it has the best quality videos performance and audio wise.👍
I am so incredibly glad I have fallen into this incredible rabbit hole!
just for your information: Wacken is a little village in the North of Germany and there is one of the biggest Metal-Festivals in the world. Founded 1990 it grew to 85000 visitors for 3-4 days... It´s massive, the line up is massive!
They sell out early! Lots of fans bought tickets when the previous singer was touring...
Floor stepped in with 48 hours notice (sort of), flying out to the States.
Very cool reaction, hope you do more Nightwish.
There's a ton of stuff to dive into and Gabriel sent his suggestions already.
I can add the newly released official verison of 'Tribal', which I really like :D

Welcome. I love sound engineers. I once trained at a Polytechnic in Greymouth New Zealand called Tai Poutini Polytechnic as an Audio Engineer and i use to play in a band at the local pubs there. I use to be the lighting tech for other bands over in Christchurch but never worked at something at this scale. What an experience. Sounds like you've had a way cool background. When i trained M.I.D.I. was still quite new and we used reel to reel and cassettes Lol. Quantising lol get that wrong and you may get a double beat on the keyboard. I was only trained on an old 64 Track recorder and i remember the first time i used Pan and realized that's how i can create Stereo lol. But this was when i was 21 about 29 years ago. I love this band Thank you.
How cool! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you, and thank you for the link i will be checking this out!
Welcome back, greetings from Colombia
Wacken is said "Vacken" - it's in Germany. What Gabriel said! (What Ann said) Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. edit: Marko, playing bass, was also responsible for much of the sound quality! p.p.s. I am so glad that Ville Lipiainen has recorded their concerts for our enjoyment - imagine the stuff he has which we have not yet seen!!?
The singer (Floor Jensen) is married to the drummer of Sabaton (another epic metal band you must check out). She does an outro to Sabaton's Christmas Truce video. You gotta see that one.
Is there more invested in the audio/video recordings of Nightwish live recordings than in band recordings in general? Sometimes you hear that live video feels like you would be at the gig yourself , but it's like comparing oranges and apples, they are different products. At a gig, you have one "camera angle", probably an obstacle to visibility, and the audio depends on where you are towards the audience. The sound of the music video has been tried to be as perfect as possible, and the best parts of the performance, from facial expressions to pyrotechnics are cut into the video.On the sofa at home, you can choose whether to watch a video the size of a postage stamp on a phone or on a home theater system on a big screen with hi-fi sound and you can choose the "correct" version of the song.
Genuine reaction. Heard this song a thousand times. You are doing awesome.
Thank you!☺️
AT THE END WHEN SHE GOES INTO FULL BEADT MOAD I LOKEN HERE TO A OLD AMERICAN MUSICAL CAR MUSTANG
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done and welcome to the Nightwish Family
Thank you!! ☺️
Wacken Open Air in 2013 had 82,000+ people at the NW concert. That's quite a feat given that Wacken, Germany has a population of 9000 (who can each get free tickets to the WOA festival). Also, WOA sells out the NW concert a year in advance. I was fortunate to get my tickets early. Here's the thing - Floor was not the singer when I purchased my tickets. Anette Olzon was the lead singer for NW. Floor was hired after NW fired Anette in October (I think) 2012 to finish the tour through 2013 as a temporary singer. Many people at WOA weren't aware of what she'd sound like with NW. We were pleased and she pleased the band quickly. It pleased the public when she was publicly announced as a member.
Oh wow, that is wild, and also thank you so much for sharing! I cannot fathom being in that crowd, it must have been incredible!
Yep, we can imagine you turning up and then experiencing *This!*
Did your butt feel like a fresh batch of kneaded dough? That was my girlfriends reaction.
🤣
You talked about the energy exchange between the band and the crowd. For the band this was the 13th song of a 15 song set, for the crowd this was the last band of a four day metal festival. The energy level is remarkable.
For another Nightwish performance with an unbelievable energy exchange, check out I Want My Tears Back live at Buenos Aires in 2018. The band and the crowd get into a feedback loop where the energy just keeps magnifying.

Definitely the best performance to see her versatility, I don’t know if you had seen her before or maybe Tarja or Annette but there’s a lot of discussion about Tarja and Floor that can sometimes get quite heated 🥺! For future reference a good follow up would be Romanticide, a bit heavier!
I think that you would also find a band called The Warning interesting, a trio of sisters from Mexico. They all sing lead vocals including the Drummer while she’s hammering the living daylights out of her drumset! Their energy and engagement with the audience is exemplary, regardless of audience size, they rocked the roof off the 2023 MTV VMAs! No heated discussion about them - a very loyal and passionate fanbase! They started out in 2014 when they were 9, 12 and 14!
Imagine Floor was to this point only 10 months with Nightwish after this concert she became the lead singer after learning this score and all the bands list of songs in 48hrs
Unbelievable…and so so so bad***, I love it!

thank you, great reaction! You are awesome. You are probably hear Nightwish Tarja(1996-2005) or Anettea era(2007-2012), Current(in this video) singer is Floor Jansen 2012->. One my favorite is Last ride of the Day(live Masters of Rock 2015)
Floor is just an amazing singer / lead man and the band and stage is next level . ❤
Great reaction.
Lucky you....
There is a backstage docu out there.
You get to see all the cables and gear......:)
Hi Ginx, at this time Floor was still the stand-in vocalist. Having said that, she still had the audience of 82,000+ in the palm of her hand.
I'm glad you decided to continue your Nightwish journey. Whilst Wacken 2013 was an amazing concert/performance, you shouldn't overlook the band's many other stellar live shows. I'd suggest:
Last Ride of the Day - th-cam.com/video/kAFxLXqP8UM/w-d-xo.html
The Greatest Show on Earth - th-cam.com/video/qrMwxe2ya5E/w-d-xo.html
The Islander - th-cam.com/video/Zo8ncK_5kzc/w-d-xo.html
I Want My Tears Back - th-cam.com/video/TBOdgxjb0kM/w-d-xo.html
Yours is an Empty Hope - th-cam.com/video/vyLsU7Q333k/w-d-xo.html
Hope this helps!

What you should do:
Listen to Gabriel.
He knows.
Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured another soul….:-)
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 !
80,000+ people at this show.
That was such great fun, seeing you enjoying the best band in the world! Looking forward to seeing more reactions and enjoy your many more Floorgasms to come :D Best regards from The Netherlands!

Or anything live by Diana Krall
Two artists I have experienced who's live performance sounded considerably better than the studio album.
Hi GINX, Mixed by Marko, the bass player. :)
The people responsible for sound, lighting, video wall, pyro, etc?
Crewish! Many have been with them for years.
Thuddy drums, yep. Love your insights and enthusiasm.
Nice epic song and reaction! It's like the 'Bohemian Rhapsody' of Nightwish. Another magical female singer gothic metal band from Greece is MYSTFALL . Song: Celestial Vision th-cam.com/video/AlcBJRNL4kQ/w-d-xo.html
I was there and it was not of This WORLD!
I cannot even begin to imagine!🔥🔥🔥
Audio engineer, oooh, this should be nice.
Jukka the grove magician.
Marko the Bass player, had a hand in the mixing...
You can tell that they are having fun :)
The transitions from styles.
Floors soft velvety voice, the guitarist, Emppu having a swig...
The Drums EQ and settings! Happy tone.
Soft choir, the woodwinds, drummer comes back on, off we go again.
Then the use of brief quiet sections, yummy.
Floor changes gear with her voice, ramping it up.
Cinematic, a movie score... Hans Zimmer is a favourite with band members.
The energy exchange, Floor was encouraged.
I'm sure this will go down in musical history.
Great reaction! I would suggest that you should use word "reaction" on your title and/or description, because YT search didn't show this video in my results, until just now. I usually check new reactions one to twenty...or maybe even more times per day. Yeah, I know it's pathetic, but especially few days back when we had -30°C for days and my shoulder is total wreck, I sometimes have nothing else to do. Anyway. I suggest that you continue with Nightwish. Every song is different, some are much heavier, some are softer, some folkier...and few are this kind of crazy huge epic masterpieces like this one.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed! And that is a great suggestion, I will make sure to add “reaction” to the video descriptions🙂
Nice, welcome back.. try more (choose from General Gabriel's List)
Greetings from NW-Army-Germany and SabatonFan
I love who you are. You are a person I could hang with, for sure. =)
Also, the whole Wacken 2013 Nightwish show is amazing, from beginning to end. I recommend starting with the opening track (Dark Chest of Wonders) and making your way through in order. You won't be disappointed.
Welcome to the magical world of Nightwish and Floor Jansen, The Goddess Voice of Heaven and Earth. Enjoy your journey.
"Vac-en"😅 Igorrr - Tout Petit Moineau could be a fun experience if you haven't found that experience yet.
Are you savvy to Will Ramos? His sleep token vocal covers are pretty wild vs his work with Lorna Shore.
Wacken = VAH-ken (It's a musical festival in Germany).
The longhorn logo (comprised of little torches) is a Wacken insignia - it has nothing to do with Nightwish or any other band. (Many reactors believe the longhorn and Nightwish are connected).
:-)
Wacken is a sleepy midsize (not a city) in Nothern Germany. Its about 55 miles away from Hamburg up to the North. It has 2 Bakeries and 1 Gasstation, 1 Church and some farming. The Metal came to the Village and the early years where wild, really wild.
Hi GINX....so glad you enjoyed the song! Nightwish is my favorite band right now...and I have been listening to rock, hard rock, and the birth of heavy metal since I was a first trader in elementary school in 1963!
Nightwish is the best of the best in my opinion!
You have a new subscriber!
Yay, thank you so much!
Lovely reaction! It was interesting hearing you talk about the audio engineering because, while everyone acknowledges the musicianship, what helps make this one of the greatest concert DVDs ever is the more behind-the-scenes work: videography, lighting, pyro, mixing, and yes, audio engineering. Welcome back to Nightwish!
Great reaction
Greetings from 🇳🇱 🤘
Thank you ☺️
Well, you've scratched the surface of what this band can do, let alone Floor.
Lots of different things to experience yet, as Gabriel's list will have hinted to you.
A couple of things to say:
- You might be interested in watching the Gear Gods video on Nightwish's equipment, available on YT
- Note that the bass player, Marco, was also a lead singer for the band until he left just a few short years ago
- Note also, that Marco did post-production sound mixing for this show
This is the 13th song in the set. BTW - I've seen several bands with what seems like white paper taped to the stage. What is it for? It can't be lyrics surely. Just curious. Is it to mark rough positions?
In most cases the papers on the stage are a set list for each band member to refer to
The performance....
You seemed to go crazy over it during the video....and so rightfull!
I am so glad. You kept on displaying what I feel when I experience Nightwish and Floor.
Thought I recognised a fellow ADD’er :) Enjoyed your vibe. Keep it up!
Well, welcome back into the Realm of Nightwish. I hope you find your way on the Elven path that crosses their land.
Thanks for the reaction 👍
