I was sure you would appreciate this performance :) As you noted, it's a unique combination of virtuoso elements of all the band members, channeling an intense energy. You have already reacted to 3 songs, each unique in its own way - you are already starting to get an idea (still incomplete) of their musical diversity.
Hey Gabriel. I retired a couple of years ago and started watching reaction videos to discover new bands. The first day I saw GLS(Is it OK call it that?) at least 10 times. I accomplished my goal of finding new bands. I had heard of Nightwish. My Pandora account had a Hammerfall channel so I got to hear Kamelot, Within temptation and such. I've discovered many things about bands I knew about (Tool and Rush) . And I discovered many new bands. The Japanese bands, Jinjer, Unleash the Archers, Within Temptation. Ad Infinatum(Melissa's gorgeous) , Epica and Nightwish. No surprises there I've always loved female lead singers. Fleetwood Mac and Heart I have seen about 10 times. Heart has been my favorite since 1975 so I'm too old to get a new one. I think Tuomas is the best composer in this genre along with Arjen Lucassen. I have seen at least 100 GLS reactions and probably 200 other reactions. I listened to each album between 5 and 20 times. I watched Wacken 10 times and Wembly and Tampere at least 5 times I've seen a couple versions of Hellfest and Pinkpop from this year. I am about to watch Rio from last week. I just noticed a Chile from 2days ago.I have seen Tarja , Annette, Marko and Floor with or without Nightwish. And I followed your list at first. So am I worthy to be in the army?
@@norair1010 Hi, I'm glad there are people like you, open to new musical genres, regardless of biological age. In my opinion, it is a sign that you have kept your inner youth intact, that you can still see the beauty of a flower and a sunset, that you are not stuck in the everyday concrete that surrounds us. I experienced the metal genre late in life, about 7 years ago, and the opening of this path was made by Nightwish with GLS, so I understand you perfectly, I think that for about a week I listened to this song several times every day. For me, it had a therapeutic effect, being emotional support in a difficult moment of my life. You don't need certifications (... it's the first time I've been asked for something like this...). You are already one of us. :)
@@gabriel.bardac There is no opening up to Metal. Actually I'm slowing down to listen to this. I grew up In Los Angeles and I went to this club for like everyday and so all the LA bands from 1978-82 that were about to hit it big . Hard rock,metal and punk. And I wasn't really looking for permission. I thought it would be funny but thanks for thinking I was nice enough to ask for permission. Rock on in Romania.
Holy Sh.... Indeed !!!!! This song is Like a Coffee with Red Bull .... On Steroids 🤘❤🔥🤘. That glissando is crazy !!!! Floor is classically trained after all. PLUS: Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bull whip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Emppu's guitar solo in this is masterfully executed. And You have NO idea how good are Marko's (Bassist) vocals, Yet .... Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia 🤘😎🤘.
Love the reaction! Please continue with your journey discovering Nightwish. 7 Days To The Wolves, Live at Wembley will certainly awe and inspire you yet again.
There comes a turning point for every Nightwish reactor upon which they go from mildly interested to fully invested. I think this song was your turning point.
Awesome performance, all songs from this live show. It feels like Floor has been singing with the band for several years and not just joined. The duet with Marco sounds bombastic. All the musicians are pros and very synchronized, the drummer blows the roof off.
Great reaction from you 👍 🤘 And don't worry, you have still only scratched the surface of Nightwish's and Floor's capabilities - glimpses of what she is capable of doing. A ballad where she going through the Octaves and using different styles could be: ' Dead Boy's Poem' from Buenos Aires 2018 / Decades More heavy with rock style could be: Slaying the Dreamer Or Devil and the deep dark Ocean Both from Buenos Aires 2018 / Decades But it really does not matter which song you choose - they are all mind blowing. You could choose to do something really spectacular!! 'The Poet and the Pendulum' from Wembley 2015 Or 'The Greatest Show on Earth' (remember to stay on until the video is completely finished, because the speaking afterwards is an important part of the song!!) 22 minites. From Tampere 2015. Both songs should blow you completely out of your house - and I can assure you that you probably haven't seen / experienced anything like this. Both are pure masterpieces of music and unbelievable singing, that only Floor are able to. Not kidding!! Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘
Thank you for your reaction 🤘❤️. Nice to see that you enjoyed. Shoemaker in Hellfest 2022 please. Floor is amazing singer,she can paint every colors. I hope to you more Floorgaaaasms with Nightwish thank you. Greetings from Finland.
Wrighteous & NW Fans...all must have heard that Floor was diagnosed with breast cancer recently. Prognosis is good, she goes in for surgery tomorrow. Those of us attending shows on the European tour, let's all wear pink to show Floor our love and support.
I absolutely love this song and its' energy!! 🔥🔥🔥 Such a fun reaction. Glad you enjoyed the song!! I can't wait to see you react to Song of Myself from this same concert.
Love that 3 octave glissando that Floor does in tandem with Marko. The studio version is from 2004 with original singer Tarja Turunen, that only has his 2 octave slide. Yes, it's heavier, one of their heaviest, and one of the few that Emppu really Shreds on. He ,and the band , play what the song needs and are not out there to show off. Marko is an awesome singer in his own right. He sang backing and co-lead on a lot of songs, and lead on a few, including The Islander and their cove/tribute of Pink Floyd's High Hopes. He was lead singer of a band called Tarot before joining Nightwish. Unfortunately, he left the band early 2021 for personal reasons. They brought that energy for every song in this 15 song set, this was song #11 (GLS was #13). The song itself, is about a Romance that has died. It's over, time to move on. You like the heavy? Me too. Try Yours Is an Empty Hope (Wembley 2015 show), Weak Fantasy (Tampere 2015).
There are many people in this world who will never get over Nightwish and Floor no matter how long they live. Dear God, they are good. I hope history remembers them well.
And for a more folk feel ( and don't forget the 6th member of the band Troy ) do I Want my Tear Back live from Buenos Aries . Keep up the great reactions! 💜🤘🎶🎤🎸🎹🥁
Yes, yes they are. In a month of listening to them you’ll be using a lot more adjectives than good. Do yourself a favor and just watch the entire concert at wacken in 2013. Set aside some time, put on some headphones (or just crank the volume up to the brain melting setting) and just go straight through it. 🤯 you’ll thank me later. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
No explanation needed! Everything she does is sooooo difficult🤣 and floor is killing it sooo fine. Please do The Greatest Shoe on Earth live in tampere 2015!
The 28th of November, my very first live NW concert in Amsterdam!!! After years of listening to their albums finaly live! Can't wait!! Like your professional reactions and your apreciation for the skills of the bandmembers!!
Same here - after 2 and a half years of having the tickets laying around at home i cant wait any longer. Just hope that we will have the pleasure of hearing also Henk Poort at the Ziggo Dome on that evening as the Phantom like the deal was at the "beste Zangers"... Driving 600km instead of just having bought tickets for the closest show to my home which would have been 20 kms will hopefully turn out to be a very good decision. Oh well, a visit to Amsterdam is always a good decision... See you at the 28th!!!
@@markusdietrich6777 I have a tip for you. The solo shows of Floor are great also and Henk Poort is always present to sing some duets with Floor. A few weeks ago they were in Hertme near the German border. For the 28th of November in the Ziggo Dome i am not sure but they promised last year Henk would be there! See you!
I was tired of waiting so I saw them at PinkPop this year. Just a one hour set, but also saw Floor solo with Henk for an hour and topping of the sweltering hot day with Metallica was a nice bonus. 🤘🏽 Looking forward to Nov though.
Your reaction to her “swell” was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time 😂😂😂. I haven’t laughed that hard since before I had my heart attack!
Your reaction to this tells me not only do you appreciate what everyone is doing, but you like Tuomas' songwriting. I hear he is called the Mozart of metal. Your facial expressions show you really enjoy what this group does.
More reactions! More Nightwish! More often! You're great at this. Fantastic. Keep going with Gabriels list, please. There's a few songs you could skip early on to get quicker to the juicier stuff, but I don't think you want that.
Another side to Floor's voice can be seen and heard in 'yours is an empty hope', a good one is live at Wembley Arena. Watch Floor carefully in the chorus, you'll be in for a surprise! 😁
I absolutely love watching your reactions, because of all the little facial tics and twitches as you take in every beat, riff and note. It isn't just watching a musician, but a music fan. Seriously great dude.
Great watching your reaction. Made me laugh my A#@ off. Floor is even able to growl my friend. Your journey may just have started. Thanks from Switzerland 🤘🏽🥂
what i love most about the epic ascending slide she does at the end is that she evenly goes up, with medium resonance and volume and a rather nasal, forward quality and then, once she reaches the high d, she puts in full resonance, free vibrato and a hint of dome to the sound. but only for the high d. on the way down she immediately switches back to the nasal, brighter sound. the effect that it gives is incredible. she certainly could have done the same slide in full classical voice from bottom to top, if she wanted to. which would have been quite a bit more difficult, though. keeping the sound small and letting it blossom only at the top is a wise trick to use. what a singer she is. every time i listen to her greatest performances i am in complete awe. she was at the absolute zenith of her vocal powers during the time of this concert.
Glad it came out today. Terrific reaction to another of Nightwish's performances. If you want to experience Floor harsh growling on every chorus while Marko sings clean, you need to check out "Yours is an Empty Hope" live from Wembley 2015. This is a song slamming internet trolls. Here's a link to this amazing show opener: th-cam.com/video/vyLsU7Q333k/w-d-xo.html
Talking about rock during a metal clip: check her song “While Love Died” from her project “Northward” with amazing Pagan’s Mind guitar player Jörn Viggo Lofstad, you will love it
I "discovered" Nightwish, almost 3 years ago... just from watching reaction videos. The reason I love this band so much... the obvious... the brilliance of composing by Tuomas...the unmatched vocal ability of Floor, the coolness and talent, both instrumentally and vocally, of Marco...and the excellent drumming by Jukka. As a drummer, myself, Jukka just brought me into this band, even tighter. He brings the energy, passion and wildness of John Bonham and Keith Moon...and adds in the technical excellence of Neil Peart. As you mentioned, his consistency...it's impeccable. Floor's rock vocal ability can be best heard, in songs like Yours Is An Empty Hope. It offers her melodic ability, with the metal growl ability that caught me off guard, the first time I heard it. I was expecting standard, rock vocals that only Floor can bring...and she brings it...and adds in that growl, that, unless you had heard her in years prior to joining Nightwish, it's completely unexpected.
Thanks for the reaction! 🤘 You might want to check out: Yours is an empty hope, Devil and the deep dark ocean, Song of myself, Weak fantasy ( live in Tampere)..And many more like ppl here have suggested. 💯🔥
Thank you for more Nightwish and Floor Jansen!!!! GREAT reaction, especially from a professional singer and musician! Also, during that Glissando Floor and Marko did you had a major "Floorgasm" my beautiful blue eyed friend!!! I also am into the heavier stuff and into "bad ass" stuff, so with that I will HIGHLY suggest and recommend "Yours is an Empty Hope" Live at WEMBLEY!!! The song is from the first CD w/ Floor in 2015 (Endless Forms Most Beautiful). FLOOR is the one doing ALL the low guttural Metal death growls in ALL the choruses (NOT Marko, Marko is singing clean, don't let your ears deceive you hahahaha). Empuu's guitar riff is heavy and CRUNCHY w/ such an awesome tone!!! I recommend the WEMBLEY version bcuz the other versions have Floor's growls TOO LOW in the mix. The Wembley performance you can also clearly SEE with her facial and mouth expressions that it's her!!! Army: Like this so he will do it HAHAHA 😅😅😅
Tuomas has stated Floor really wanted this song in this setlist. Yes, she has the voice of an angel when she wants, but she loves her metal too. Liked and subbed, really appreciating your enjoyment.
I knew you were going to be a ton of fun to watch!! Reaction, sharing the appreciation and analysis!! Subscribed because of Nightwish, please keep them coming, you have still a few things to discover...
I am a country boy from TN 47 yes old and I have watched hundreds of reactions to this song, this song has so much drive and energy I literally come to tears listening to it as it can be overwhelming
If you want to see what styles Floor can do, check out the show "beste zangers" 2019. It's about a group of individual singers who perform for each other in a very small setting in Ibiza. Here she sings, classical , Spanish, country (renditions of shallow) and a duet with an opera singer (phantom of the opera). Check it out you will be blown for sure... Even if you are not into these music styles.
Seriously Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires, Song of Myself (Waken 2013) Epica - Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith in Paris, Unleashed (live from the Retrospect show) Ayreon - The Day that the World Breaks Down, Everybody Dies, (live) Floor (solo covers) Alone, Let it Go You'll not be disappointed 🤘😎🎸
At a certain time you come across :The poet and the pendulum, you will see Kai Hahto playing the drums, hence rhat Jukka Nevallainen stepped down due to severe insomnia. Kai is the former drummer in Wintersun, and this is a band to experience 🤗 Time 1 from live rehearsal in sonic pump studios is a great one to start on 🥰🥰 Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
Two songs to see and understand who Marko (bass player) is, ''The Islander" (Tampere Live) and "High Hops" from End Of An Era DVD (tribute to Pink Floyd)! New subscriber for this and waiting to see your reaction to my favorite song from Nightwish "Song Of My Self"! Keep rocking and thank you! 🤘🏻
Thank you for reacting. There's a reason why I like Nightwish. Also thank you for reacting on BTS. I like them for the same reason. Both are good at what they do in their own unique way. Both are storytellers. Succes with your channel. Warm greetings from The Netherlands 👍💜🍀🤘💪🇳🇱🌷🤗
I have only seen them once in concert about 6 months ago. Floor is hands down one of the best frontperson, I have ever seen. You basically can not take you eyes off her while she is onstage. She is just captivating.
From a old metal rock head, check out Floor’s band Revamp, songs Distain, Trial of Monsters or Millions, to start Graspop 2010. This was her band she wrote a lot of the songs and assembled the band. Floor can sing any genre thank god metal & rock is in her veins! Rock On Stay Safe!🙏🤘🤘🤘
Awesome :D looking forward to more NW reactions from you. It's so cool to see people showing the love to my favourite band... Alas, none of my friends like the same music that I do, hence why I love these reaction videos 😝
Dude, so many comments, so little time! 😂 Yeah, Floor can BRING IT. You have more surprises in store for you there. Trust us all on that one.. I still think Dark Galadriel is one of the best monikers I've heard in a while. She goes where even Galadriel would fear to tread. *Way* more than once watching her perform this has crossed my mind: "In place of a dark lord, you would have a Queen. Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea, stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All shall love me and despair." Also, from your other reactions to NW, it's obvious you're a guy who appreciates a great turn of phrase, real poetry in the lyrics. Even in a banger like this, the lyric poetry is simply sublime! You're going to *love* the rest of this journey just from that aspect alone.
Great reaction, I love how much you paused and replayed some sections. And if you want to stay on heavier side of Nightwish, the best way to proceed is Yours is an Empty Hope (Wembley recording)
I know I've seen at least one other person comment if you want to see another heavier song check out the 2015 sold out live performance at Wembly of Yours is an Empty Hope. The best word to describe the performance is simply none other than Savage. There are a couple sections between her and Marco where is an almost evil deep metal growl and a vocal part. Everyone assumes the growl is Marco and the vocal part is Floor. When you watch closely Floor is delivering the beastly growl because she is a badass! 😎 The she goes into sounds of a deadly siren and then comes back in full tilt like a freight train! And the hair windmills are in full affect! So, if you want a heavy amped song that will leave your jaw dropped and a tad confused for a minute thats the song and performance! 🤯
I also have to say if you want something that is a polar opposite look at I Want My Tears Back especially the Live version in Buenos Aires in 2019. First off it is one of the most hyped audiences right from the get go. This song is a mix of rock and celtic and you even get bagpipes. It definitely makes you want to get up and dance especially the musical section in the middle ; Floor definitely encourages you to dance, jump, move around. I wish the record focused a little more on her on these sections because let me tell you watching her jump around, twirl, and dance from one end of the stage to the other just makes you smile! It's impossible not to! It's just the power of Floor! It's just a song that makes me happy especially those musical sections. You should see me in my car when they hit! 🤣😂🤣 So, yeah if you want to see yet another side of Floor I recommend I Want My Tears Back 2019 Buenos Aires
WrighteousJ. Floor can sing in different languages. English, Dutch (native language), Finnish, German, Spanish, Swewdish, Italian and Latin. She is knowed for singing Symphonic Metal, but she also can sing Heavy Metal, Rock, Pop, Opera, Arya, Doom Metal and even Rap. 🤘🤍
You should do Planet Rock - How's the Heart acoustic. It is just Floor, Troy, and a guitar. Also you should do the entire Wacken 2013 concert before moving on. There is nothing bad in it.

i agree or "Yours is an empty hope" the Wembley version
Yessss
Slaying the dreamer from buenos Aires
Or tribal from Hellfest
Tribal from Hellfest this year🤘
In Nightwish, I believe "your's is an empty hope" can go even harder in Floor's brutal range.
I dare tpo say 90% of the folks who heard or saw that video has no idea Floor does most of the grunts.

More reactions! More Nightwish! More often! You're great at this. Fantastic. Keep going with Gabriels list, please. There's a few songs you could skip early on to get quicker to the juicier stuff, but I don't think you want that.
Another side to Floor's voice can be seen and heard in 'yours is an empty hope', a good one is live at Wembley Arena. Watch Floor carefully in the chorus, you'll be in for a surprise! 😁
I absolutely love watching your reactions, because of all the little facial tics and twitches as you take in every beat, riff and note. It isn't just watching a musician, but a music fan. Seriously great dude.
Awe thank you!!!
Great watching your reaction. Made me laugh my A#@ off. Floor is even able to growl my friend. Your journey may just have started. Thanks from Switzerland 🤘🏽🥂
Love this. I want to bring laughs and fun into breaking down performances, glad you enjoyed it!
So so good,she the one
It is amazing both musically and technically what Floor and the band are capable of!
You NEED to do Yours Is An Empty Hope! Wait until you hear Floor GROWL. 💙
what i love most about the epic ascending slide she does at the end is that she evenly goes up, with medium resonance and volume and a rather nasal, forward quality and then, once she reaches the high d, she puts in full resonance, free vibrato and a hint of dome to the sound. but only for the high d. on the way down she immediately switches back to the nasal, brighter sound. the effect that it gives is incredible. she certainly could have done the same slide in full classical voice from bottom to top, if she wanted to. which would have been quite a bit more difficult, though. keeping the sound small and letting it blossom only at the top is a wise trick to use.
what a singer she is. every time i listen to her greatest performances i am in complete awe. she was at the absolute zenith of her vocal powers during the time of this concert.
Glad it came out today. Terrific reaction to another of Nightwish's performances. If you want to experience Floor harsh growling on every chorus while Marko sings clean, you need to check out "Yours is an Empty Hope" live from Wembley 2015. This is a song slamming internet trolls. Here's a link to this amazing show opener:

Ok I’ve waited for this one. Getting popcorn 🍿 ready ….. AND you didn’t disappoint 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 LOVED it
Let’s goooo
Talking about rock during a metal clip: check her song “While Love Died” from her project “Northward” with amazing Pagan’s Mind guitar player Jörn Viggo Lofstad, you will love it
I "discovered" Nightwish, almost 3 years ago... just from watching reaction videos. The reason I love this band so much... the obvious... the brilliance of composing by Tuomas...the unmatched vocal ability of Floor, the coolness and talent, both instrumentally and vocally, of Marco...and the excellent drumming by Jukka. As a drummer, myself, Jukka just brought me into this band, even tighter. He brings the energy, passion and wildness of John Bonham and Keith Moon...and adds in the technical excellence of Neil Peart. As you mentioned, his consistency...it's impeccable.
Floor's rock vocal ability can be best heard, in songs like Yours Is An Empty Hope. It offers her melodic ability, with the metal growl ability that caught me off guard, the first time I heard it. I was expecting standard, rock vocals that only Floor can bring...and she brings it...and adds in that growl, that, unless you had heard her in years prior to joining Nightwish, it's completely unexpected.
Wrighteous carry on pls....but a couple of times every week....Greetings from The Netherlands.
This is a huge energy blast, we know. 😎👍
Short but sweet, my favorite. It is holy smokes time!
Thanks for the reaction to my fav NW song.. your smile made everyone here smile too ear to ear😊
One of the best reactions I've seen to this song! you feel every note, love it x
Appreciate it!
Your genuine enjoyment of these songs makes it really fun to watch your reactions! Thank you!
thank you!

You need to see "Devil and the deep dark ocean" live from Buenos Aires! That's one hell of an epic song!
Great reaction, can tell you really understand what goes on there 👍🏻
Hope you continue your Floor/Nightwish journey.
This is an amazing combo of analysis and reaction. Chefs kiss man.
When NightWish ruled the world.
Glad you're continuing your Nightwish journey..Great reaction. You gotta do Song of Myself from this show next. Love the channel
Thank you for more Nightwish and Floor Jansen!!!! GREAT reaction, especially from a professional singer and musician! Also, during that Glissando Floor and Marko did you had a major "Floorgasm" my beautiful blue eyed friend!!! I also am into the heavier stuff and into "bad ass" stuff, so with that I will HIGHLY suggest and recommend "Yours is an Empty Hope" Live at WEMBLEY!!! The song is from the first CD w/ Floor in 2015 (Endless Forms Most Beautiful). FLOOR is the one doing ALL the low guttural Metal death growls in ALL the choruses (NOT Marko, Marko is singing clean, don't let your ears deceive you hahahaha). Empuu's guitar riff is heavy and CRUNCHY w/ such an awesome tone!!! I recommend the WEMBLEY version bcuz the other versions have Floor's growls TOO LOW in the mix. The Wembley performance you can also clearly SEE with her facial and mouth expressions that it's her!!! Army: Like this so he will do it HAHAHA 😅😅😅
My body’s ready🤣🤣🤣
Devil & the deep dark ocean, ghost river, and Yours is an empty hope for more heavy content😍
Tuomas has stated Floor really wanted this song in this setlist. Yes, she has the voice of an angel when she wants, but she loves her metal too. Liked and subbed, really appreciating your enjoyment.
I knew you were going to be a ton of fun to watch!!
Reaction, sharing the appreciation and analysis!!
Subscribed because of Nightwish, please keep them coming, you have still a few things to discover...
"We gonna watch it again..." YES!
I am a country boy from TN 47 yes old and I have watched hundreds of reactions to this song, this song has so much drive and energy I literally come to tears listening to it as it can be overwhelming
If you want to see what styles Floor can do, check out the show "beste zangers" 2019. It's about a group of individual singers who perform for each other in a very small setting in Ibiza.
Here she sings, classical , Spanish, country (renditions of shallow) and a duet with an opera singer (phantom of the opera). Check it out you will be blown for sure... Even if you are not into these music styles.
Seriously
Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires, Song of Myself (Waken 2013)
Epica - Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith in Paris, Unleashed (live from the Retrospect show)
Ayreon - The Day that the World Breaks Down, Everybody Dies, (live)
Floor (solo covers) Alone, Let it Go
You'll not be disappointed 🤘😎🎸
At a certain time you come across :The poet and the pendulum, you will see Kai Hahto playing the drums, hence rhat Jukka Nevallainen stepped down due to severe insomnia.
Kai is the former drummer in Wintersun, and this is a band to experience 🤗
Time 1 from live rehearsal in sonic pump studios is a great one to start on 🥰🥰
Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰

LOL you got Floorgasmed bro. Great video!
To see you reacting our Floor goddess is so hot indeed 🎉
"Always a sucker for a finger tap" *insert Michael Scott quote*
Shudder before the beautiful, next please! Enjoying these reactions :)
Who needs a 🚨 when you have a true Siren with you 😇😇😇
Hail Nightwish 🤘🤘🤘
Two songs to see and understand who Marko (bass player) is, ''The Islander" (Tampere Live) and "High Hops" from End Of An Era DVD (tribute to Pink Floyd)! New subscriber for this and waiting to see your reaction to my favorite song from Nightwish "Song Of My Self"! Keep rocking and thank you! 🤘🏻
I concur
Thank you for reacting.
There's a reason why I like Nightwish.
Also thank you for reacting on BTS.
I like them for the same reason.
Both are good at what they do in their own unique way.
Both are storytellers.
Succes with your channel.
Warm greetings from The Netherlands
👍💜🍀🤘💪🇳🇱🌷🤗
I have only seen them once in concert about 6 months ago. Floor is hands down one of the best frontperson, I have ever seen. You basically can not take you eyes off her while she is onstage. She is just captivating.
He was not prepared. So he is ready for the next 205 songs. Well done.
I call that wail the “floor-raid siren”
From a old metal rock head, check out Floor’s band Revamp, songs Distain, Trial of Monsters or Millions, to start Graspop 2010. This was her band she wrote a lot of the songs and assembled the band. Floor can sing any genre thank god metal & rock is in her veins! Rock On Stay Safe!🙏🤘🤘🤘
Mind Blown!!!!!!!
Gosh I love to see your expressions while listening to this. 🤩
Awesome :D looking forward to more NW reactions from you. It's so cool to see people showing the love to my favourite band... Alas, none of my friends like the same music that I do, hence why I love these reaction videos 😝
Great great song! Thanks!
Dude, so many comments, so little time! 😂
Yeah, Floor can BRING IT. You have more surprises in store for you there. Trust us all on that one..
I still think Dark Galadriel is one of the best monikers I've heard in a while. She goes where even Galadriel would fear to tread. *Way* more than once watching her perform this has crossed my mind:
"In place of a dark lord, you would have a Queen. Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea, stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All shall love me and despair."
Also, from your other reactions to NW, it's obvious you're a guy who appreciates a great turn of phrase, real poetry in the lyrics. Even in a banger like this, the lyric poetry is simply sublime! You're going to *love* the rest of this journey just from that aspect alone.
Love your reactions to metal music. Count on my subscription! 😈
thank you!
Great reaction, I love how much you paused and replayed some sections. And if you want to stay on heavier side of Nightwish, the best way to proceed is Yours is an Empty Hope (Wembley recording)
I know I've seen at least one other person comment if you want to see another heavier song check out the 2015 sold out live performance at Wembly of Yours is an Empty Hope. The best word to describe the performance is simply none other than Savage. There are a couple sections between her and Marco where is an almost evil deep metal growl and a vocal part. Everyone assumes the growl is Marco and the vocal part is Floor. When you watch closely Floor is delivering the beastly growl because she is a badass! 😎 The she goes into sounds of a deadly siren and then comes back in full tilt like a freight train! And the hair windmills are in full affect! So, if you want a heavy amped song that will leave your jaw dropped and a tad confused for a minute thats the song and performance! 🤯
you realy need to watch "The Greatest Show on Earth" live in Tempere from them, the Stageproduction in that one is on of a kind🤯🤘
Floor windmilling since start at After Forever in 97.😈😎🇧🇻
I also have to say if you want something that is a polar opposite look at I Want My Tears Back especially the Live version in Buenos Aires in 2019. First off it is one of the most hyped audiences right from the get go. This song is a mix of rock and celtic and you even get bagpipes. It definitely makes you want to get up and dance especially the musical section in the middle ; Floor definitely encourages you to dance, jump, move around. I wish the record focused a little more on her on these sections because let me tell you watching her jump around, twirl, and dance from one end of the stage to the other just makes you smile! It's impossible not to! It's just the power of Floor! It's just a song that makes me happy especially those musical sections. You should see me in my car when they hit! 🤣😂🤣 So, yeah if you want to see yet another side of Floor I recommend I Want My Tears Back 2019 Buenos Aires
Awesome reaction Mate! Check out The day the world breaks down by Ayreon. You'll be in for a treat with this one! 🔥🔥🔥
Love Floor! She's awesome! Check out Ever Dream (Wacken 2013)!!!!
You're so in love! I am too!
WrighteousJ. Floor can sing in different languages. English, Dutch (native language), Finnish, German, Spanish, Swewdish, Italian and Latin. She is knowed for singing Symphonic Metal, but she also can sing Heavy Metal, Rock, Pop, Opera, Arya, Doom Metal and even Rap. 🤘🤍
You should do Planet Rock - How's the Heart acoustic. It is just Floor, Troy, and a guitar. Also you should do the entire Wacken 2013 concert before moving on. There is nothing bad in it.
