thanks Chase for having me on. It was a lot of fun to film and I'm so glad I finally got to listen to Marko as a soloist! Let us know what else you'd like a collab reaction to and perhaps we can make it happen!
The next one HAS to be The Islander. Marko's vocals and guitar tone on that song in the live Tampere version is just aethereal. I'm pretty sure you're gonna just LOVE it lol
Dropped by the comments to say the same thing! I stumbled upon Julia, Chase & Tank entirely separately. Independently, they have the only 3 reaction/analysis channels on TH-cam that I found so engaging I wanted to subscribe and hear more -- all 3 of them analytical, interesting and fun in equal measure. They're all absolutely passionate about music and it always shines through. Originally I had no idea there was any link between you three -- so I think it's about time for a three-country collaboration! Your unique perspectives are a great complement to each other.
@@ChaseCarneson I dont know if anybody has suggested this as an option for the dual or even trifecta analysis breakdown masterclass in music vocal theory videos. But how about finding songs that you have experience with and do a comparison of the band and how Tuomas arŕanges the songs between Tarja & Floor and analize the way the same song translates between them musically and vocally in live performances. Then its not a reaction and just a learning experience for all. I think that this would just be amazing.
@@ChaseCarneson Chase, you and Julia could have a love story of a century. Ok, I'll stop this nonsense right here. Thank you for the greatest reaction for this wonderful song. I'm so glad that you are back on youtube. It means a lot for me
Marco was a very accomplished singer and leader of his own metal bands before he joined Nightwish. He is ten years older than the rest of them and he gave them a lot of credibility when he became a part of Nightwish. Not to mention adding his amazing vocal talents.
I'm a guitarist, and I've never seen mastery of the e-bow like Troy shows here. The transients at start and finish are seriously hard to make clean, but Troy just does it like it's nothing.
Probably you know this: In The Greatest Show On Earth ( Wembley version ), Troy also uses the E-bow. He plays the cello parts in the beginning and that is really an improvement especially in a live show. The second reason to watch that version of TGSOE is the ending where Richard Dawkins appears live on stage at the end. Overall, and as a musician Ik like that version a bit above the one in Tampere, although that one of course is nice because the "greatness" . @ donepearce, @Chace Carneson
@@janusvb I love both those versions - the Tampere for the fireworks and Wembley for Troy and Dawkins. Is there another writer today who can match Tuomas for spectacle?
now Chase is in charge of the pause.. oh dear =p seriously though... 2 amazing knowledgeable reactors together again with great chemistry.. gonna be great
There's nothing I like more than watching two good friends are waxing lyrical on things they're passionate about, albeit the differences in expertise, but being so close in proximity because instruments and vocals are like milk and cereals. Julia shouldn't apologize for nerding out over the vocals, it's what we're here for. Troy's ebow was a nice touch and you were on-point about replicating the sound of violin / cello, because the violin was featured in the studio version instead of ebow. Other than that, the song structure and instrumentation-wise are pretty straightforward with anti-climatic ending (ha!) that I don't think you guys missed a beat. Even Julia's interpretation was spot on. Again, well done to both of you. Stellar status! Also, this is an upvote for a podcast or maybe another collab for Christmas :)
Please do a collab reaction to "Ayreon, The day the world breaks down". Would be awesome to hear you 2 react to that masterpiece. It's one of my favorite songs. And I think a lot of people would appreciate it if you did that.
One of my favorite female reactors and one of my favorite male reactors doing one of my favorite Nightwish songs. Marco wearing his "I have Floor Jansen as my background singer" shirt, what more can we wish for?
I liked Julia's twisty, scrunchy face smile when she really wanted him to pause so she could talk about something, and then her face lighting up when he finally gave in a paused. So freaking cute!!
Troy Donackley really is a Multi-instrumentalist. I Googled and here's what I found. He can play; Uilleann Pipes, Bouzouki, Low Whistles, Portugese Mandola, Tin Whistles, Keyboards, Acoustic Guitar, Bodhran, Electric Guitar And in addition he sings and composes. Quite a Multi-talent. Thank you both so much for Your very interesting reaction
In the original movie score, a violin plays the melody that Troy does here with the guitar. So the e-bow makes perfect sense to carry that over to this live performance.
This Song was never meant to be an Nightwish Song. This was a single Song under the Name "Tuomas, Marco & Jukka". It was written for an Finnish movie. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_Your_Lips_Are_Still_Red
@@ArtMateurMusic Haven't seen it, but I am under the impression that it wasn't good at all. Would've been a huge waste not to use this song outside of the movie.
Marko's vocals, Troy's guitar, great backing vocals by a certain Ms Floor Jansen (how she and Marko end the vocals perfectly before Troy takes us to the end of the song).
I felt this performance ended abruptly as well. At the very least, if they were in a proper concert hall, the natural reverb of the acoustics would even suffice.
having the two of you dissect such a song is like eating a wonderful piece of cake on a rainy sunday afternoon with a cup of coffee or tea, and letting each little bit of it melt on your tongue to taste all the ingredients and feel all the textures. and when you say live in the moment end enjoy, this is it so thank you very much for your efforts
This is my wedding song. I love it so much. It was made during the intermission between Tarja and Annette so Marco actually has the whole vocal in the recording. The Wembley gig was during our engagement and I made a SUPER high pitched squealing noise when I realised they were heading into this song. The original recording has a violin so Troy's Ebow just blew me away. I remember just slumping on the barrier and listening. It was magical. Also for anyone wondering. They went into Elan after this. 😃
Let me assure you, the message or idea is very clear and serious, take heed. My wife at just 54yo and only 2 years into a hard won and idyllic retirement, fell dead in front of me with a massive unannounced stroke. Then a few months later my beloved 20yo cat had to depart too. @Dee D above, life really is brutal. Wives, husbands, dogs, cats, canary birds and pet martians. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Marko had an unsuccessful operation to remove nodes on his vocal folds many years ago. He started coaching and for a long time was taught how to work around the problem. This always has me in awe of what he does. I would suggest the 2019 version of Marko and Floor doing Ave Maria in the Finnish metal Christmas shows.
Just when you think Nightwish cannot surprise you anymore - step forward Marco. Such a beautiful song. The musical composition spot on, Troy’s magical guitar playing and then in comes Floor to compliment Marco’s vocals. 💋
That’s a beautiful example of evolution squared - while writing/playing/singing about evolution in their last two albums, they are evolving themselves 😍👌
Fantastic song! I was in that very audience and was so surprised when they started playing this as I had never seen them do it live before! Such a lush song!
I can't pretend to know absolutely ANYTHING about vocal techniques or anything about instruments or music at all, but I can proudly say I love Nightwish and am very familiar with their work. Everything they produce is a pure work of art. Everything from the smallest, intricate details in audio to the huge physical/visual elements. Every band member is so vital and a genius at what they do. Positive side note here: I absolutely ADORE when people talk about something they are so incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about. It makes your eyes spark with joy and you constantly smile. It just makes me so happy to hear and watch anyone talk about something they love and hold so dearly. So I obviously love watching you both get so excited when talking back and fourth about the technical aspects and explain what is going on with the music and vocals and how they bring up an emotion or how you can produce a certain sound with an instrument. That's stuff I have no knowledge of but watching y'all be so happy makes me happy in turn! It also helps me kinda learn a few things (the simple stuff my brain can comprehend.) Basically I'm just happy and learning things while y'all are happy and learning things. You both are so amazing and I'm a huge fan of you both, Julia and Chase! Much love and good vibes to everyone 🖤🌈🤘 I had originally posted that ^^ as 2 comments while I had paused on the live stream/live comments but the official live video was over so I'm not sure if they went through or not so I wanted to say it again just in case.
Not going to lie.. I cried the first time I heard this song. It also made me regret some life choices I have made, and really shines a spotlight on your personal flaws. It also encourages you to make a lot of small but positive changes in your life to lead a more fulfilling future. This is probably my favorite Nightwish song of all time and I am so thankful for the collaboration on this song especially. I would also love to see a solo reaction from both of you for this song as well! Thank you guys so much!.... Also... Ebow. I could listen to Troy play that thing for days!
Thanks for this collab, love these. Julia is expert on singing, voice. Chase on music, composing. End result - detailed and absolute information. Amazing and thanks to you both.
Great reaction folks. Playing an ebow like that is super tricky and needs huge skill which is very different from a “standard” pick or finger approach. Troy is awesome
This song has a special place in my heart ❤️ Yes, Marko is in the lead with Floor backing him up. Yes, Troy is great on the guitar with the e-bow. My now late best friend and soulmate went to a bunch of concerts over the years. But Nightwish in Milwaukee on the Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour was our last. This was in the set list that night and it always brings back some dear memories ❤️ Thanks in advance and I’m looking forward to tomorrow morning 😊
The Ginger Squad strikes again! I wasn't even sure I liked this song at first but you two helped me to really hear it. Thanks and keep it up. Take care.
I have always believed that the sudden ending reflexes the fact that life can end at any moment. You think you know how it is going to end but you don't. Just has been my interpretation of it
The studio version is hauntingly beautiful, and worth a listen to by itself, it's 90% just piano and violin with maybe two instruments in the final minute ish. For sure give it a listen too
You two have great chemistry, and your knowledge of all things music is amazing. I'm looking forward to this. Oh yeah, add in Nightwish, damn, I really can't wait. haha.
Thank you Julia and Chase, I am speechless, what a great song, and how wonderful to see you together again, two wonderful people who know what they are talking about. stay healthy .
For me the abrupt ending signifies the unpredictability of life and death and how it can be shortened without warning, and underscores the meaning. It doesn’t always come neatly... sometimes there is an unfinished feel or the desire for one more (chorus). Another testament to their brilliance as musicians and artists
One of their most under-rated songs! love❤ those two singing together .. no matter who has the lead. In my opinion Marko and Floor were created to sing together Looking forward to the reaction
Who is this song "underrated" by? As far as I know, most of the Nightwish fans love it. Another thing is that this song was originally released as a solo work by Tuomas and Marco for the Finnish movie "Lieksa!" and only later it was added as a b-side to the Nightwish single "Amaranth". Perhaps this is why it is rarely performed live. But in fact, Nightwish has too many great songs that it's become very difficult to make set lists so that there is time for their other songs besides the obvious hits and new songs.
@@SokolRock you don't have to explain it to me .. I know! But I meant the version with Floor. Personally, I think it is better than the one that is seen the most, and of which you just thought you had to give the full explanation.
In the original and official video and song version there is no guitar and female voices at all. Tuomas designed this to be a movie song/sound. However, good analysis of this. You can see that original in TH-cam including clips of that movie. Marco did a solo album with awesome solo vocals in that too.
I love both of you, both great reactors, cant wait to see and here what you make of this great performance, and oh ya, Floor singing let it go, watch that aswel. Keep safe and smiling
Isn't using "favorite" and "ginger" in the same sentence an oxymoron? lol. Seriously, making them sit in front of those lights is probably giving them cancer. Shout out to their sacrifice on our behalf. :-)
Thank you guys for this! 🌷 Beautiful reaction and so very informative! It concludes my amazing day after Floor's new cover! Think about making a podcast! You voices are so soothing and you do have interesting things to say. Plus, a reaction with Julia on vocal analysis, Tank on production analysis and Chase on musical analysis and holder of the pause button....sounds more than perfect!😉 Oh, where is the giveaway for the air drum kit? I want in! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I will never remark enough how much funny this woman is. You two should react to "The Day That The World Breaks Down", there's A LOT to talk about from both a musical and a vocal standpoint.
@chase carneson i've gotta know what headphones you use, cause you have phenominal hearing and if they're good enough for you i might wanna grab a pair.
You guys are so fun together. Thanks to each of you for putting out great content. As I think I have said in comments in each of your channels, my favorite reaction videos are the ones that at least try to provide some insight and learning, even if what I am hearing the reactor say is not something "new." You both provide a tremendous amount of insight from such different perspectives. Much appreciated.
You two are incredibly intelligent in how you explain your analyses. I have loved your, Chase's, channel and now that I've found Julia's, damn. Subscribed to you both, and I REALLY hope you two consider doing more collaborations, not just on Nightwish, but other groups and songs as well. Love how you both respect each other, and are willing to defer to your respective "lanes" while still being comfortable commenting on the other's analysis. Both of you are very good at explaining music and performances so us "lay people" can understand it, and you both catch SO. MANY. THINGS. Like, dang. Loved the collab, loved both analyses, love Nightwish. Thank you both very much.
When Julia gets into it, it's like you can physically see the music crashing into her and stirring her up... But when Chase gets into it, his brain just shuts off his facial muscles and he always looks off in his own little world. I tease because I love
The "time between two pauses is a Carneson" thing just shows how awesome of a personality you are. Making more than an average amount of pauses let a mediocre TH-camr just get angry comments about it. Great TH-camrs like you create their own meme doing so.
Thank you both for another awesome collab video :D You two rock! You'll probably get haters talking about the length of the video, but 99% of us absolutely love the in depth detail you both go into, so keep up the awesome work. One of the highlights of my crappy week
@@ChaseCarneson sorry to abuse this comment for that, but just because you were so kind to answer... Just in case your friend tank didn´t already give you a short summup of evolutionary biology, I tried to do that in a comment to the greatest show on earth which if im not mistaken I think you appreciate quite a lot. Greetz!
NASA (Nightwish Army Scottish Allegiance) Oh Yes! One of my favourites for personal reasons ....... Soooooo Looking forward to this reaction 😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Attention - ladies and gentlemen for this public announcement: As the pandemic strikes our planet a lot of people in numerous professions are suffering. So: would the 8 persons that disliked this video please leave their adress at the frontdesk? Our zombiehunters are short of work.
My only regret of my delirious NW journey is, I don't get to share this with my circle of friends from college. We were big music fans back then. My friend Tristan, and his mom, Cheryl, were musicians. Guitar players. Huge fans of Progressive and Hard Rock, and Heavy Metal. As kids who grew up in the 70's, we were fans of Arena Rock. Styx, Kansas, Journey, The Who, Yes, Asia, and Especially ELP. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Aka, Emerson, Lake, and Powell. Aka, 3 to the Power of 3. Between Tristan, Larry, and Greg, aka Zod, aka Z (I later ended up dating his cousin) they would get a huge kick out of NW, Ayreon, WIT, Epica, all of it. I hope they've found their way here on their own. Hate to think of them missing out.
Damn, this was such a good reaction. I love how you guys looked like you were totally entranced by the song, and I totally agree with your statement how you want more of the song and go back and listen again - I may have done this a time or two.

Marko's vocals, Troy's guitar, great backing vocals by a certain Ms Floor Jansen (how she and Marko end the vocals perfectly before Troy takes us to the end of the song).
My only complaint about this one is that the final bit with Troy and the e-bow isn't long enough XD

First another cover with Floor Jansen and now this... What a saturday!
Can't wait, this song is so sad and perfect, and both of y'all are pretty damn spot on and great commentators. Can't wait

This is probably my favorite Nightwish song of all time and I am so thankful for the collaboration on this song especially. I would also love to see a solo reaction from both of you for this song as well! Thank you guys so much!....
Also... Ebow. I could listen to Troy play that thing for days!
So, now Chase is in charge of the pause button 😀
Julia getting crazy with 200 pauses in 3, 2, 1... Lol, but please chase, pause and rewind as much as you need.
This is gonna be a long ass video.
I hope so 🤞🏻
Oh I'm already feeling this one. The reaction is going to be fueled with daily dose of unstoppable pauses and double XL Diesel.
Thanks for this collab, love these. Julia is expert on singing, voice. Chase on music, composing. End result - detailed and absolute information. Amazing and thanks to you both.
Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Great reaction folks. Playing an ebow like that is super tricky and needs huge skill which is very different from a “standard” pick or finger approach. Troy is awesome
This song has a special place in my heart ❤️ Yes, Marko is in the lead with Floor backing him up. Yes, Troy is great on the guitar with the e-bow.
My now late best friend and soulmate went to a bunch of concerts over the years. But Nightwish in Milwaukee on the Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour was our last. This was in the set list that night and it always brings back some dear memories ❤️ Thanks in advance and I’m looking forward to tomorrow morning 😊
This song was made for the soundtrack of a film, it directed the choices
The Ginger Squad strikes again! I wasn't even sure I liked this song at first but you two helped me to really hear it. Thanks and keep it up. Take care.
Well that “Ginger Squad “ could be even better when they react together to Jinjer!
These collabs are soooooo good!! Damn, love them. MORE MORE MORE Please....
Too bad I can 'like' this only once.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have always believed that the sudden ending reflexes the fact that life can end at any moment. You think you know how it is going to end but you don't. Just has been my interpretation of it
The studio version is hauntingly beautiful, and worth a listen to by itself, it's 90% just piano and violin with maybe two instruments in the final minute ish. For sure give it a listen too
Little fun fact. Human Nature album harmonies they created by the campfire with quitar and batterie powered keyboard.
You two have great chemistry, and your knowledge of all things music is amazing. I'm looking forward to this. Oh yeah, add in Nightwish, damn, I really can't wait. haha.
I was right. This was epic. Thank you Chase and Julia.
I recommended this song when the first collab happened. I'm so excited about this!
Thank you Julia and Chase, I am speechless, what a great song, and how wonderful to see you together again, two wonderful people who know what they are talking about. stay healthy .
Kiss while your HAIR(S) are still red...
...
I know, lame one... but I can't help to restrain myself when overwhelmed by their Ginger power!😅😅😅
👋🇮🇹🖖
For me the abrupt ending signifies the unpredictability of life and death and how it can be shortened without warning, and underscores the meaning. It doesn’t always come neatly... sometimes there is an unfinished feel or the desire for one more (chorus). Another testament to their brilliance as musicians and artists
Chase and Julia , what a very good collab
One of their most under-rated songs! love❤ those two singing together .. no matter who has the lead. In my opinion Marko and Floor were created to sing together
Looking forward to the reaction
Who is this song "underrated" by? As far as I know, most of the Nightwish fans love it. Another thing is that this song was originally released as a solo work by Tuomas and Marco for the Finnish movie "Lieksa!" and only later it was added as a b-side to the Nightwish single "Amaranth". Perhaps this is why it is rarely performed live. But in fact, Nightwish has too many great songs that it's become very difficult to make set lists so that there is time for their other songs besides the obvious hits and new songs.
@@SokolRock maybe he meant it isn't reacted to as much.
@@SokolRock you don't have to explain it to me .. I know! But I meant the version with Floor. Personally, I think it is better than the one that is seen the most, and of which you just thought you had to give the full explanation.
@@marcovanschaik72 But most reactors watch the Wembley live version with Floor, not the music video.
@@SokolRock wel lets just say;
It does not gets the attention it deserves.....
In the original and official video and song version there is no guitar and female voices at all. Tuomas designed this to be a movie song/sound. However, good analysis of this. You can see that original in TH-cam including clips of that movie. Marco did a solo album with awesome solo vocals in that too.
I love both of you, both great reactors, cant wait to see and here what you make of this great performance, and oh ya, Floor singing let it go, watch that aswel.
Keep safe and smiling
I think I could listen to Julia speak for hundreds of years and never be tired of her.
So....Chase has a bromance and Julia. Id say you sir are the center of a reaction triangle XD
That would be interesting - Julia & Chase & Tank.
But on the other hand, would we ever get to the end of a song, with all the pauses? Cheers / B.
We would learn a lot though!
@@deed5811 - Yep, agree on that. Cheers / B.
Can’t wait for this one. Two of my favorite gingers in one video is almost too much to take. 😀❤️
Outside of the one on Gilligan's Island, there two are top of my list
Isn't using "favorite" and "ginger" in the same sentence an oxymoron? lol. Seriously, making them sit in front of those lights is probably giving them cancer. Shout out to their sacrifice on our behalf. :-)
Thank you guys for this! 🌷 Beautiful reaction and so very informative! It concludes my amazing day after Floor's new cover!
Think about making a podcast! You voices are so soothing and you do have interesting things to say.
Plus, a reaction with Julia on vocal analysis, Tank on production analysis and Chase on musical analysis and holder of the pause button....sounds more than perfect!😉
Oh, where is the giveaway for the air drum kit? I want in! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 But thank you!
High Hope for next collaboration and Chase control the pause button pls? It’d be a great journey.
High Hopes is on 3rd
Another collab with my 2 favorites reactors, a long one, about Nightwish ? HELL YEAH I'M HERE FOR THIS ♥ already liked, loved, everythingued !
Yes, finally!! Can't wait for this one. One of my favourite songs and having Troy and Floor with Marco's lead vocals makes it perfection 👌😍🎶 x
You guys together are the reaction GOATs. Wish you'd do more collaborations.
That’s very very kind of you. Thank you for that. Always up for more vibes with Julia.
Chase + Julia = the perfect song analysis. The perfect TH-cam channel really. More collabs please.
Vouch! :)
This is one off the most beautifull songs from Nightwish. So delicate and soft. Love this! And of course your collaboration. 😁👍
Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍
These are the team-ups we need. Get Tank in here too!
You 2 are awesome, cool and beautiful music nerds.
Oh I'm here for this. Thumbs up for this pairing!
I will never remark enough how much funny this woman is. You two should react to "The Day That The World Breaks Down", there's A LOT to talk about from both a musical and a vocal standpoint.
@chase carneson i've gotta know what headphones you use, cause you have phenominal hearing and if they're good enough for you i might wanna grab a pair.
They are JBL ones.
You guys are so fun together. Thanks to each of you for putting out great content. As I think I have said in comments in each of your channels, my favorite reaction videos are the ones that at least try to provide some insight and learning, even if what I am hearing the reactor say is not something "new." You both provide a tremendous amount of insight from such different perspectives. Much appreciated.
Thank you, Jerry, I appreciate you. 🙏🙏🙏
You two are incredibly intelligent in how you explain your analyses. I have loved your, Chase's, channel and now that I've found Julia's, damn. Subscribed to you both, and I REALLY hope you two consider doing more collaborations, not just on Nightwish, but other groups and songs as well. Love how you both respect each other, and are willing to defer to your respective "lanes" while still being comfortable commenting on the other's analysis. Both of you are very good at explaining music and performances so us "lay people" can understand it, and you both catch SO. MANY. THINGS. Like, dang. Loved the collab, loved both analyses, love Nightwish. Thank you both very much.
When Julia gets into it, it's like you can physically see the music crashing into her and stirring her up... But when Chase gets into it, his brain just shuts off his facial muscles and he always looks off in his own little world.
I tease because I love
I'm a little bit disappointed. Only 42 minutes and 34 seconds 🤣🤣🤣
Sorry! 🤣🤣🤣
@@ChaseCarneson I forgive you this time 😝
But seriously, you both are awesome!
Thanks Chase and Julia. Voice and music reaction together: that’s music to my ears.👏👍
I think you two would be nice couple :D
The "time between two pauses is a Carneson" thing just shows how awesome of a personality you are. Making more than an average amount of pauses let a mediocre TH-camr just get angry comments about it. Great TH-camrs like you create their own meme doing so.
Thank you both for another awesome collab video :D You two rock! You'll probably get haters talking about the length of the video, but 99% of us absolutely love the in depth detail you both go into, so keep up the awesome work. One of the highlights of my crappy week
Having subscribed to both of your channels its quite funny to get your two opinions in one video. 2 in 1 knowledge ;-)
This is one of my favourite videos
@@ChaseCarneson sorry to abuse this comment for that, but just because you were so kind to answer... Just in case your friend tank didn´t already give you a short summup of evolutionary biology, I tried to do that in a comment to the greatest show on earth which if im not mistaken I think you appreciate quite a lot. Greetz!
NASA (Nightwish Army Scottish Allegiance) Oh Yes! One of my favourites for personal reasons ....... Soooooo Looking forward to this reaction 😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Love those reactions! Actually, Floor started as background singer for Ayreon, you might check that 😉. You even might meet Marco.
Ayreon and Star one. I love to see the star one concert from, I thought 2003, live! With the sisters Irene and Floor as backing vocalist.
@@liesjedegie1001 👍🏻
Started as background singer for Ayreon? What about After Forever?
Attention - ladies and gentlemen for this public announcement:
As the pandemic strikes our planet a lot of people in numerous professions are suffering. So: would the 8 persons that disliked this video please leave their adress at the frontdesk? Our zombiehunters are short of work.
That was brilliant! Lol!🤣🤣🤣
(18 zombies at the time I'm writing...)
👋🇮🇹🖖
EDIT: 14 zombies: some hunters did well their job!😉
I need a collab from my 3 favourite reactors: = Chase + Julia + Tank The Tech= Avengers Reactors assemble!
My only regret of my delirious NW journey is, I don't get to share this with my circle of friends from college. We were big music fans back then. My friend Tristan, and his mom, Cheryl, were musicians. Guitar players. Huge fans of Progressive and Hard Rock, and Heavy Metal. As kids who grew up in the 70's, we were fans of Arena Rock. Styx, Kansas, Journey, The Who, Yes, Asia, and Especially ELP. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Aka, Emerson, Lake, and Powell. Aka, 3 to the Power of 3. Between Tristan, Larry, and Greg, aka Zod, aka Z (I later ended up dating his cousin) they would get a huge kick out of NW, Ayreon, WIT, Epica, all of it. I hope they've found their way here on their own. Hate to think of them missing out.
Nightwish is magical. Tuomas Holopanien is the Steven Spielberg of metal. He can evoke emotions better than anyone.
Great collab. I love both perspectives. You are both so smart. Thanks for the insights.
HELL YEAH LETS GO! PERFECT SONG TO COLLAB WITH
Check out Marko on The Masked Singer. Then you'll see his full vocal capability🤯😲
Damn, this was such a good reaction. I love how you guys looked like you were totally entranced by the song, and I totally agree with your statement how you want more of the song and go back and listen again - I may have done this a time or two.
"Are you a good singer?" "Floor ist my backing singer." "..."
