Ello 🤗 So this is going to be a full video without cuts, which means that some of you will not be able to see this video cause it is restricted in your country for some reason... sorry in advance! But after the comments I received about the cut video, I could not live or even sleep knowing that so many people were upset by the video, which I completely understand. So this is the full video for the people and the band itself ❤ And the first published video is removed.
I totally understand if reactors want to get some money from the effort they put to these videos, but I also understand that band and labels want their share too. But I also think that labels are bit "short sighted" with this, because reaction videos are great way to introduce new artists to potential new fans. And an average fan is way more important to them financially than average viewer. Royalties from views are just crumbs, compared to fans who buy everything they possible can afford, plus go to their gigs. But because labels have decided that reactors don't deserve anything, donations and p a t r e o n type of services are the only way to get something for the content creator.
Did you know FORESTELLA’s Kang HyungHo also known as PITTA does Nightwish’s WISHMASTER with his PITTAband? His company Arts And Artists recently 😅 uploaded 4 videos from his solo concert last April. He had a concert over 2 dates 13 th and 14th January this year and an encore concert this weekend of 3rd February. He covers bands like Muse, Within Temptation , Coldplay, Nightwish, etc as well as his originals .
Videos blocked in a country are no longer a problem in this day and age... VPN is the solution to this. I have been using it for years and highly recommend it. There are plenty of providers. Just find out more.
Nightwish is not Evanescence. Nightwish is rather "Disney" music, with a heavier sound. Poetic song lyrics with epic song compositions. There should be a separate music genre like Nightwish.
Hi Gabriel! I am very thankful that you have taken over the task to introduce new reactors to Nightwish. That must be a lot of work for you because you have to find out where are new reactions. Many greetings from Nightwish Army Goettingen, Germany.
Gretings from Finland, home of NW. Our goddess is Floor and she is Dutch. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl who is drummer of Sabaton. Every Nw song is new and different, so there is lot to explore. Floor can do it all, so... Our master is Tuomas, who is metal mozart, on the keys.
No matter how many times I've watched and listened to a new reacter (and Nightwish) "for years now"...I've lost count, it never gets boring. So new sub!
You see Nightwish live on the Wackem tgis is in my homeland Germany when you like Nightwish listen to the old Nightwish Band with Toumas Holopainen Keybord Empu Vuirinen Gitarr Tarja Turunen Vocal s Jukka Nervalainen Drums And Sami Vanska Bass
This is the Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany with 82,000 people! Its the biggest Rock/Metal Fesitval in Europe. When you dig more into the Band, this Concert is epic!
If you find yourself struggling to find words after hearing Nightwish for the first time, you have LOTS of company--both fans and reactors. I've seen both reduced to tears.
And here comes the Nightwish army. Great reaction. Tip: always watch the videos until the end, because usually there are things that fans cherish a lot, like a beautiful "Thank you", credits that explains things, things like that. Hope to see your next reactions! Bye bye and have fun with my favourite band!
Much better! I bailed on the edited version, but your full reaction was enjoyable. Half the reactors that get introduced to Nightwish with this song compare it with Evanescence at the start, but after they experience the versatility and power of this singer and band Evanescence is not brought up again. I hope you continue your journey. Every song becomes your favorite when you first hear it. There are no bad or even mediocre Nightwish songs. 😊🤘
Nightwish with Floor is... magical. Moving as hell. The Poet and the Pendulum makes me cry EVERY time. You should check out Epica Sancta Terra live with floor. Another amazing band.
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty: Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured another soul….:-) 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 !
Well described, it's a bit like that . Wish I could go back in time and have been there to experience this concert - This would be one of the top Musical experiences of all time , you can feel the atmosphere through the screen on this one. A Very Special Set 🤘 🇦🇺
Yes, your are right. She also can sing without any accompanying instrument and her voice sounds fantastic. Listen to "How's the heart" by Nightwish acoustic version. There are only Floor singing and Troy with an acoustic guitar and a little background singing. And she can sing all from opera (listen to her singing "o mio babbino caro" by Puccini) to death metal growls (listen to "Disdain" with her former band ReVamp) and all between.
welcome to the world of Nightwish full of surprises, great emotions and always good songs. This band hasn't made a single bad song. I loved your reaction and you made me a new subscriber. Wait, when you watch the next song, you'll be surprised! oh I won't reveal everything, I don't want to spoil anything. Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮
Hello Richard, greetings from UK Thank you for reacting to my favourite band Thanks also for uploading your full reaction, I thought that it was great 😉
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! Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
Greetings from sweden! I am glad to see that you liked Nightwish, they are my favorite band of all time. Their music is like nothing else and the level of their talent is godlike. I teally hope that you do more Nightwish and if I may give you a suggestion I recommend the song Storytime live at Wacken Open Air 2013. You will get alot of requests from that show because it is the best that they have ever done. Have a nice day!
Still comparing Nightwish wit the oter band, hihi. Im sure you will join the army, you are still on the boot camp. ;) Your reaction was so accurate and interesting, liked it very much.
From the heart, Richard (my name 2...): what a quality reaction from you...bravo! Have the best musical Nightwish journey possib, Friend!!! NL greetz you!
The band is absolutely the best in it’s genre, and even outside its genre. I Could go on to suggest songs but I’m sure that’s going to happen anyway. If you are interested in the lady just download her music on TH-cam. She had her own band before Nightwish called After forever, but she also does solo shows and television appearances. I. Holland she appeared as one of the participants in Beste Sangers where she finally became popular in her own country. Check out Beste Sangers, Floor, Shallow. music.th-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/w-d-xo.html&si=uNYxt7elVfxkzHE3
I'm glad you decided to put the whole video on your channel. Much better haha. I'm hoping you'll not having so much trouble in the future. Enjoy the NW rabbit hole because there is so much to discover! Btw...the body shivers are called "Floorgasms"😅 Please react to "Song of Myself" from the same Wacken 2013 concert! Floor is married to Hannes van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish metal band Sabaton. Their songs are all about historic events in wars and battles and people who played a role in them. Sabaton have their own History Channel on YT with a lot of info regarding their songs. "No Bullets Fly", the ANIMATED video is a great example of how much research they do and it is one of their best songs imho. Greetings from The Netherlands!
Keep exploring Nightwish and also Floor singing on her own. Nightwish are a fantastic band, and Floor is undeniably one of the best singers to have ever graced the music world.
Congratulations, you have just witnessed perhaps the greatest live performance in music history (at least vocally). Pick any other track from this concert, then anything with Floor singing and you are on your way. Nightwish Army Vancouver SW BC Canadian division reporting.
Welcome to the world of Nightwish Symphonic Metal! The rabbit hole is deep but the journey is great! Some songs are harder and some are folky, but all are different and great. Floor, vocals, is a Valkyrie Queen. Emppu, guitars is a guitar master! Marko, bass, is a superior guitarist, bassist and vocalist in his own right! Jukka, drums, is a stylistic drummer and probably one of the best in the genre. That leaves Tuomas, keys, he is the mastermind behind most of Nightwish’s music. He is the writer, arranger and composer. He is called the Metal Motzart. I hope to see you back with other reactions. Storytime from this same concert would be an excellent choice!🤘🎸
Floor has been trained as a classical singer. There's a video around of a Dutch TV-show where she sings "Oh Mio Babino Caro" by Puccini, and she sang "Stabat Mater Dolorosa" by Pergolesi together with her friend Simone Simons of Epica; both recognised as important classical and baroque pieces of music.Although her specialty is Metal, she is still able to put on a very decent fully classical performance. As you heard she has also enough control to get "poppy" or rock in her performance, even to the point to perform death growls. The only style I can come up with she never did is (Tibetan) Mongol-Tuvan throat singing.
Hi Richard. What do I hear you saying now "it looks like Baby Metal". Funny because those girls were born a little while ago when GLS was written. Nightwish is simply unique in terms of music. Then you are lucky that you have heard the best singer in the world, Floor Jansen. For the rest...nice comment ( and we forget your first reaction on GLS). Greeting from the Netherlands
🤩👍💥💯🎼 Now that you've seen and heard The "corner stone" performance by them I kindly urge you to explore more of this magical band. Neat reaction män and keep on rockin with them! Cheers from Finland. 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Those where not chivers but a Floorgasm. And Floor can do it all. Looking forward to the next Nightwish reaction, there are no bad songs and every single one is different. I think you will like Shoemaker
Thanks for the review! Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Nightwish and Floor Jansen. Every song different and unpredictable but supremely well done! Floor is arguably the best female vocalist on the planet and can do it ALL. Tuomas the keyboard player is the mastermind behind it all. I hope you keep going, ...... each song seems better that the last, ..... which seems impossible but it's true.
She can also do proper death metal growls, too. Try video titled "Revamp: Misery's no Crime. @ Mezz Breda 17-01-2014" for an example. (Unfortunately, that video is only a smartphone recording with audio that clips all the time but will still give you pretty good idea what she can do.)
They call her the Valkyrie Queen! She's very talented. Technically and with the right amount of emotions. You could give Floor any song from any genre and she'd kill it! They use a backing track from an orchestra and choirs. Would be quite impossible to take everyone on tour with them.
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!! The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Welcome aboard the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic every time . Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
What you were hearing was the full power of the 110 piece London symphony orchestra and the 80 member London metro voices choir, fronted by one of the most skilled metal bands on earth. Then you add Floor Jansen's other-earthly vocals and this is the result. It's amazing beyond description, yet somehow it's not their best song...
@@Duskwind_ Don't ya worry, Don't ya worry... It's all gonna be alright. You'll get "straighten - up" soon after the 'glue - sniffing' approx in a month(Or 2) 🤘😹 🇫🇮 💙 🎶 💯💥
Welcome to the NW army from Canada. You are about to start on a journey that will give you many moments of pleasure and Floorgasims. Floor sings your emotions rather than a song.
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, introducing the Valkyrie the Goddess Floor Jansen sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin. I'm always jealous of people hearing Nightwish for the first time.
Hope you do more Nightwish and Floor Jansen, as well as side projects by many in the band are great! With Nightwish, every song is different and all so entertaining. 😊 Subbed in hopes you explore their catalog. I think Storytime from Wacken should be next ;)
Watch out for Gabriel's comment with a ton of info. Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. This song was from their 2004 album "Once" with Tarja Turunen on vocals, unforgettable then. Floor added her own "tweaks" and made it her own. The London Philharmonic orchestra and London Metro Voices Choir recorded the backing track. Tuomas, on keyboards, composed this and said that he would play all of the orchestral parts - if he had ten hands! He's "The Metal Mozart"!
Yes, you are right. Floor has done some songs unplugged (with only a few instruments) - for Nightwish I suggest: Storytime (same concert: Wacken 2013). Best performance links you will find within the post of Gabriel Bardac ‼️🏆👍 By the way, the whole concert is paradise - not only this song…
Thank God that this nothing like BabyMetal. I like great singers and Floor Jansen is one of few. There are Japanese all female bands with good singers such as Nemophila, Saiseiga and Band Maid because they have versatility but none are even close to Floor. And we are all used to the Evanescence comparison initially until you reach the end of the song and even this is a fraction of Floor's ability. Everyone will suggest live preferably 2013 onwards as then it is Floor who has taken Nightwish to another level.
Floor can not only sing a capella, she can also sing entries in a phone book (as demonstrated live by her in a Dutch radio show). Several songs by Nightwish can be seen as consisting of several movements, like in classical music. Please continue your exploration of this band.
The comparison with Evanescens is as right as it is wrong. Amy Lee is a classical pianist and therefore sings very classically. This makes them unique in the USA; you see them more often in Europe. In symphonic metal there are Amys in series and Floor is their queen. She sings more technically extensively than Amy. The Wacken Open Air is one of the largest and oldest metal festivals in the world with around 85,000 visitors in Germany. The bull's head on the left is the logo. The organ pipes are fake and hide three keyboards. The gentle, effortless singing of even complicated parts is typical for Floor. Likewise the mix of chest and head voice. Acapella? There is one only with a guitar: Nightwish - How's The Heart Acoustic (Planet Rock acoustic session) Nightwish usually only has growls sporadically. There's more of it in the current video: Nightwish - Tribal (OFFICIAL LIVE)
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal. You just saw Floor slay this 13th song of the set list. That 3rd of August 2013 everything in the universe aligned to give us one of the best concerts ever recorded. I know it sounds presumptuous but check it out and you'll see I am right. They were headlining the famous Wacken Open Air Metal festival in front of 82,000 people. This song is very melodic, but if you listen to other songs in this concert you'll find that they also have a different gear and Floor is able to do it all. You haven't seen even half of what she's capable of. Just listen to a song like Romanticide or Ghost River and you'll understand what I mean. One thing... whatever you do from them, choose a live version, they are the best live band in the world if you ask me... and yeah I have seen them live multiple times. Enjoy your journey🖤🤘

Floor did a lot of growling in her last band Revamp back in the day, like in "Disdain" (with some operatic lines too mixed in). And she also performed full on opera on Dutch TV "o mio babbino caro". She now has her own pop album "My Paragon" (with high quality songs, but not spectacular voice gymnastics though). She also made a very soft cover of "Shadow". As Nightwish will not be touring for their next album, she decided to give priority to her own career now.
Ello 🤗
So this is going to be a full video without cuts, which means that some of you will not be able to see this video cause it is restricted in your country for some reason... sorry in advance!
But after the comments I received about the cut video, I could not live or even sleep knowing that so many people were upset by the video, which I completely understand. So this is the full video for the people and the band itself ❤ And the first published video is removed.
I totally understand if reactors want to get some money from the effort they put to these videos, but I also understand that band and labels want their share too. But I also think that labels are bit "short sighted" with this, because reaction videos are great way to introduce new artists to potential new fans. And an average fan is way more important to them financially than average viewer. Royalties from views are just crumbs, compared to fans who buy everything they possible can afford, plus go to their gigs. But because labels have decided that reactors don't deserve anything, donations and p a t r e o n type of services are the only way to get something for the content creator.
And I want to add, that this was a great reaction, and I'm glad you decided to re-upload it without cuts.
Did you know FORESTELLA’s Kang HyungHo also known as PITTA does Nightwish’s WISHMASTER with his PITTAband? His company Arts And Artists recently 😅 uploaded 4 videos from his solo concert last April.

Hi Gabriel! I am very thankful that you have taken over the task to introduce new reactors to Nightwish. That must be a lot of work for you because you have to find out where are new reactions. Many greetings from Nightwish Army Goettingen, Germany.
Never gets old seeing someone experience their first Floorgasm!! 🤘😁🤘
She takes a breath every Mondays 😍
Damn, I’d heard it was on Tuesdays. I stand corrected.
🤣
Hahaha
she does ... on the first Monday of every year! 😂
Gretings from Finland, home of NW. Our goddess is Floor and she is Dutch. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl who is drummer of Sabaton. Every Nw song is new and different, so there is lot to explore. Floor can do it all, so... Our master is Tuomas, who is metal mozart, on the keys.
And that my friend, was your first "Floorgasm".
No matter how many times I've watched and listened to a new reacter (and Nightwish) "for years now"...I've lost count, it never gets boring. So new sub!
Happy you met our Dutch Valkyrie Metal Goddess Floor and Nightwish.
Please do more, it’s all this good❣️
You see Nightwish live on the Wackem tgis is in my homeland Germany when you like Nightwish listen to the old Nightwish Band with Toumas Holopainen Keybord Empu Vuirinen Gitarr Tarja Turunen Vocal s Jukka Nervalainen Drums And Sami Vanska Bass
She is back on Stage Soon! ( on herselve!!!).
And since Nightwish isn't touring the chances she is in the 30th anniversary Ayreon show are pretty high.
Watching someone swept into Nightwish never gets old.
🤘😎
Singers sing what they can,Floor sings what she wants ❤once she sang the phonebook in a Dutch show ❤
More to the point...Sang the phone book and it sounded like a real song. Even had tears!
Tried to put a link, but they're blocked in this channel, i quess
Floor has mastered all genres of music. 😊🤘
This is the Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany with 82,000 people! Its the biggest Rock/Metal Fesitval in Europe. When you dig more into the Band, this Concert is epic!
Man i love watching the first time listeners
If you find yourself struggling to find words after hearing Nightwish for the first time, you have LOTS of company--both fans and reactors. I've seen both reduced to tears.
[Amy Lee+ Jinjer+... can hold Floors Beer after a concert.] Welcome in the World of no Autotune!
You ain't heard nothin' yet...
Wooooooooo. HAIL FROM OZ
And here comes the Nightwish army. Great reaction. Tip: always watch the videos until the end, because usually there are things that fans cherish a lot, like a beautiful "Thank you", credits that explains things, things like that.
Hope to see your next reactions! Bye bye and have fun with my favourite band!
Credit where credit's due: that's a great comeback. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
Great reaction! This is just pure gold! Keep on diving to NW, you won’t be disappointed!
Much better! I bailed on the edited version, but your full reaction was enjoyable. Half the reactors that get introduced to Nightwish with this song compare it with Evanescence at the start, but after they experience the versatility and power of this singer and band Evanescence is not brought up again. I hope you continue your journey. Every song becomes your favorite when you first hear it. There are no bad or even mediocre Nightwish songs. 😊🤘
Referencing Evanescence to Nightwish is like swearing at confession , not recommended ! 😁
Nightwish with Floor is... magical. Moving as hell. The Poet and the Pendulum makes me cry EVERY time. You should check out Epica Sancta Terra live with floor. Another amazing band.

Then you are lucky that you have heard the best singer in the world, Floor Jansen. For the rest...nice comment ( and we forget your first reaction on GLS). Greeting from the Netherlands
🤩👍💥💯🎼
Now that you've seen and heard The "corner stone" performance by them I kindly urge you to explore more of this magical band.
Neat reaction män and keep on rockin with them!
Cheers from Finland.
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Those where not chivers but a Floorgasm.
And Floor can do it all.
Looking forward to the next Nightwish reaction, there are no bad songs and every single one is different.
I think you will like Shoemaker
Hi Nightwish Army from the Netherlands precent
Aww, you said the E word. I'll allow it in the first reaction video.
Thanks for the review! Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Nightwish and Floor Jansen. Every song different and unpredictable but supremely well done! Floor is arguably the best female vocalist on the planet and can do it ALL. Tuomas the keyboard player is the mastermind behind it all. I hope you keep going, ...... each song seems better that the last, ..... which seems impossible but it's true.
and this is just one of the great songs,... this dutch warrior princess can do a lot
I love the look on your face when the "Floorgasm" hits you 😂
she can do it all... from opera - growls..... welcome down the rabbit hole ;)
She can also do proper death metal growls, too. Try video titled "Revamp: Misery's no Crime. @ Mezz Breda 17-01-2014" for an example. (Unfortunately, that video is only a smartphone recording with audio that clips all the time but will still give you pretty good idea what she can do.)
They call her the Valkyrie Queen! She's very talented. Technically and with the right amount of emotions. You could give Floor any song from any genre and she'd kill it! They use a backing track from an orchestra and choirs. Would be quite impossible to take everyone on tour with them.
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!!
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!!
Welcome aboard the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic every time .
Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
Welcome to the lovely world of Nightwish!
What you were hearing was the full power of the 110 piece London symphony orchestra and the 80 member London metro voices choir, fronted by one of the most skilled metal bands on earth. Then you add Floor Jansen's other-earthly vocals and this is the result. It's amazing beyond description, yet somehow it's not their best song...
London Philharmonic Orchestra, right (?)
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 🎶💯💥
@@jaskau2462 You are correct, the London symphony is a whole other group. I picked a bad time to stop sniffing glue 🤣
@@Duskwind_ Don't ya worry, Don't ya worry...
It's all gonna be alright. You'll get "straighten - up" soon after the 'glue - sniffing' approx in a month(Or 2)
🤘😹 🇫🇮 💙 🎶 💯💥
@@Duskwind_😂😂😂
Welcome to NightWish-Army 👍 Good reaction 🤌 Tuomas, Empu, Floor, Troy, Kai and Jukka is IT. Been on several concert and i am blown away each time.
Great reaction and analysis. Welcome to the magic of Nightwish. Enjoy your journey- Gabriel will guide you.
Subscribed to be part of your Nightwish journey. Greetings from germany 🤘🔥🫶
Welcome to the NW army from Canada. You are about to start on a journey that will give you many moments of pleasure and Floorgasims. Floor sings your emotions rather than a song.
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, introducing the Valkyrie the Goddess Floor Jansen sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin. I'm always jealous of people hearing Nightwish for the first time.
Hope you do more Nightwish and Floor Jansen, as well as side projects by many in the band are great!
With Nightwish, every song is different and all so entertaining. 😊
Subbed in hopes you explore their catalog.
I think Storytime from Wacken should be next ;)
Watch out for Gabriel's comment with a ton of info. Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996. This song was from their 2004 album "Once" with Tarja Turunen on vocals, unforgettable then. Floor added her own "tweaks" and made it her own. The London Philharmonic orchestra and London Metro Voices Choir recorded the backing track. Tuomas, on keyboards, composed this and said that he would play all of the orchestral parts - if he had ten hands! He's "The Metal Mozart"!
Yes, you are right. Floor has done some songs unplugged (with only a few instruments) - for Nightwish I suggest: Storytime (same concert: Wacken 2013). Best performance links you will find within the post of Gabriel Bardac ‼️🏆👍
By the way, the whole concert is paradise - not only this song…
Thank God that this nothing like BabyMetal. I like great singers and Floor Jansen is one of few. There are Japanese all female bands with good singers such as Nemophila, Saiseiga and Band Maid because they have versatility but none are even close to Floor. And we are all used to the Evanescence comparison initially until you reach the end of the song and even this is a fraction of Floor's ability. Everyone will suggest live preferably 2013 onwards as then it is Floor who has taken Nightwish to another level.
Floor can not only sing a capella, she can also sing entries in a phone book (as demonstrated live by her in a Dutch radio show). Several songs by Nightwish can be seen as consisting of several movements, like in classical music. Please continue your exploration of this band.
my favorite Nightwish song is Greatest Show on Earth, long but worth it and if you get the live one with Richard Dawkins its breathtaking
The comparison with Evanescens is as right as it is wrong. Amy Lee is a classical pianist and therefore sings very classically. This makes them unique in the USA; you see them more often in Europe. In symphonic metal there are Amys in series and Floor is their queen. She sings more technically extensively than Amy.
The Wacken Open Air is one of the largest and oldest metal festivals in the world with around 85,000 visitors in Germany. The bull's head on the left is the logo. The organ pipes are fake and hide three keyboards.
The gentle, effortless singing of even complicated parts is typical for Floor. Likewise the mix of chest and head voice.
Acapella? There is one only with a guitar:
Nightwish - How's The Heart Acoustic (Planet Rock acoustic session)
Nightwish usually only has growls sporadically. There's more of it in the current video:
Nightwish - Tribal (OFFICIAL LIVE)
Two acapella
Nemo in the same show
"Build a new concrete floor with het chest voice." Now that's one I haven't heard before :)
82000 people
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal. You just saw Floor slay this 13th song of the set list. That 3rd of August 2013 everything in the universe aligned to give us one of the best concerts ever recorded. I know it sounds presumptuous but check it out and you'll see I am right. They were headlining the famous Wacken Open Air Metal festival in front of 82,000 people. This song is very melodic, but if you listen to other songs in this concert you'll find that they also have a different gear and Floor is able to do it all. You haven't seen even half of what she's capable of. Just listen to a song like Romanticide or Ghost River and you'll understand what I mean.
One thing... whatever you do from them, choose a live version, they are the best live band in the world if you ask me... and yeah I have seen them live multiple times. Enjoy your journey🖤🤘
Thanks ❤

Not a Journey....just the beginning of an adventure if you go down the rabbit hole. Tip of the iceberg, my friend!! The journey never ends!
Floor did a lot of growling in her last band Revamp back in the day, like in "Disdain" (with some operatic lines too mixed in). And she also performed full on opera on Dutch TV "o mio babbino caro". She now has her own pop album "My Paragon" (with high quality songs, but not spectacular voice gymnastics though). She also made a very soft cover of "Shadow". As Nightwish will not be touring for their next album, she decided to give priority to her own career now.
