    Next one maybe "I want my tears back" in Buenos Aires 2018, where you can watch the real Troy in full action. Furthermore a great crowd, a different venue and once again a different song style. But I'm pretty sure you will like it :-)

    Regarding being surprised that the songs are still the same quality after you've heard four songs, just wait and see. The Nightwish Army tend to guide reactors on a journey and make sure they are ready for the best songs both regarding depth and quality of composition. Believe me, as good as these four songs are the best is yet to come. It's in particular the two epic songs The Poet and the Pendulum and The Greatest Show on Earth that get even better when you know the band and have read up a little of what the songs are about.
    I'll take the chance to throw out another suggestion as well. I'll go with 7 Days to the Wolves from Wembley.

    Did you notice Emppu passing Floor with his hands up and waving?
    He was „saying“: See, I am doing nothing. This time!
    To understand that, you‘ve got see, how he pranked her earlier that gig during „I Want My Tears Back“:
    At about 45 secs you can see Empuu talking to Troy telling him what he is going to do. At about 4:00 you see Empuu go behind Floor and turn down the volume or turn off her in-ear monitor. Then she reaches behind her. The funniest part is at about 4:30 when Empuu crosses the stage again. Floor turns around to watch him so he can’t do it again. Here you see the height difference between Floor’s 6’1” in heels and Empuu’s 5’3”. They laugh at each other.
    There is only one thing to have in mind:
    I suggest the Wacken version for every song that is available from this festival. except „U want my tears back“. Only for this „Wacken -song“ I do suggest the Buenos Aires version due to the dancing Floor and the fans.
    But maybe you‘ll do the Buenos Aires version first and then have a look at Wacken?!

    Troy plays, and sings a little back up at Wacken during the song "I want my tears back".. What's interesting about that songs is during the performance of that song, Empuu (Lead Guitar and prankster) switches off Floors ear piece about halfway thru the song.. If you look close, you can see him talking with Troy as he hatches his plan.. Then about half way thru the song he goes across the stage from right to left behind Floor, just like he would normally do.... but, this time he takes just a second or so longer. What he did is all but cut out of the video but as soon as he comes across you can see Floor a couple times reaching around her back as she is dancing, trying to turn it back on. She finds it and gets it back on, but a few seconds later he starts to come back across stage to get back over to the right, and she spots him.. You can clearly see her spin around staring him down as he is passing behind her the second time.. Most people only notice that moment in the video because Floor and Empuu are very close together just at that point and the difference in their height is very obvious just then as she towers over him.. She is 6'-6'1" without the heels, he is like 5'4" without his platforms.

    WOA, Wacken Open Air (don't know why that bit is in English).
    Marco and the Siren, "Do come across" (the ghost river), are they arguing over our souls?
    It goes a bit quiet with the childrens choir.
    Floor "Never lose your heart" you two both stopped nodding...

    Wacken (pronounced Vacken) is the largest Metal music festival in Europe. Marco and Floor really aren’t like “chalk and cheese”. When Marco wasn’t doing “metal” singing, their voices matched wonderfully. For instance, in Finland, Christmas is celebrated, in part, by a music celebration in which Ave Maria is sung. Floor and Marco sang it together for several years. It’s on TH-cam. Damn,, I’m so sorry that Marko has left. I understand his reasons, but for Nightwish fans, it’s quite a loss.

    Your "windmilling" is getting there. Keep it up! By the way, even though some Nightwish fans are under the impression that windmilling was named for our Dutch vocal goddess, sad to say, "windmilling" is a term long used even by poor metal-loving sods who've never even had the pleasure of seeing the glory of Floor doing it.
