You should check out Floor and her idiol, Henk Poort singing Phantom of the opera together. It's from a Dutch show where all the best singers from the Netherlands sing a few songs. This clip went very viral. Would like to hear your opinion about this awesome duet as a reaction video. And Henk Poort is awesome btw. th-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/w-d-xo.html
Undoubtedly the BEST Live band and female vocalist on the planet! The compositions and Floor's vocals bring out an emotional reaction like no other band and singer has for me and so many .
According to a 2015 interview with Tuomas in _Metal Underground,_ he said, "The underlying theme of the song is nothing less than the meaning of life, which can be something different for all of us. It's important to surrender yourself to the occasional 'free fall' and not to fear the path less travelled by." And according to Marko, this song is about making the most of one's life. 👍
Thomas never reveille's the meaning he feels. Because his songs are self-explanatory. Or have a specific meaning for every other person listening to it.
Élan means vitality of spirit… and the song is inviting you to chase away the darkness by grasping the magical things in life and running with them. Basically… it’s about “Awesome”. 😛
This is a special one . Tuomas Holopainen said: "'Oh, while I live to be the ruler of life, Not a slave. To meet life as a powerful conqueror, and nothing exterior to me will ever take command of me.' This beautiful quote from my hero Uncle Walt [Walt Whitman] was the starting point for writing 'Élan'. "The underlying theme of the song is nothing less than the meaning of life, which can be something different for all of us. "It's important to surrender yourself to the occasional 'free fall' and not to fear the path less traveled by." However, I think this song allows you to give it your own interpretation. NWSU 🤘😎🤘
This was the first Nightwish single with Floor. Tuomas writes the lyrics for most of the Nightwish compositions. He is a poet and a musical genius. Once upon a time, English speakers did not have élan (the word, that is; we have always had the potential for vigorous spirit). We had, however, the verb elance, meaning "to throw," that was used for the launching of darts, javelins, and similar weaponry. Elance is derived from the Middle French (s')eslancer, meaning "to rush or dash" (that is, "to hurl oneself forth"). Elance enjoyed only a short flight in English, largely falling into disuse by the mid-1800s, around which time English speakers picked up élan, another French word that traces back, via the Middle French noun eslan ("dash, rush"), to (s')eslancer. We copied élan in form from the French, but we dispensed with the French sense of a literal "rush" or "dash," retaining the sense of enthusiastic animation that we sometimes characterize as dash. The music of Nightwish is bringing a new vigor and joy to all of these old people who are toiling at their dreary daily jobs. By the end they are dancing and rejoicing in the spirit of Elan.
Elan is a good one, and pretty deep and poetic. Elan means the driving force of live itself. The song is about not forgetting to live. To do more than just work, follow all the rules, day after day but to see the beautifull in the world, to find joy, to enjoy yourself. there are a few "easter eggs" in there: where the cliff meets the sea is a reference to where Floor met her husband and the decided to have a go of it together. The owl at the end watching the party is Tuomas, forever observing, forever outside. Great reaction, so much more to go and see. If you're going for the video's: try "over the hills and far away. That video has pictures from the personal collection of the bandmembers :-). funny and glorious moments.
Floor and Hannes met on tour in Grand Rapids, Michigan. That lower tier of Michigan is flat as a pancake! There are no cliffs greeting the sea. G.R. is quite far inland and is not anywhere near the sea. If you drive about 35 miles due west of Grand Rapids on I-96, you will come to Grand Haven on the shore of Lake Michigan. If you park your car, you can walk across smooth sand directly to the water's edge right at water level. No cliffs. Just clarifying the facts so that false info is not spread.
Huh. I always thought the owl was also related to Floor because of the tattoo on her right arm. Now I can see, in this video, that it looks like she doesn't have it yet. I wonder if this is the inspiration for it. 🤔
I’ve heard this song a hundred times, I sing along with the harmonies in my car when I’m driving home… I’ve never seen the lyrics until this video. XD I’ve always thought the song was beautiful and I understood the message of it, but the individual lyrics have always eluded me. They’re beautiful. As much praise as he gets for his musical compositions, Tuomas is just as much of a genius lyrically and poetically.
Ok, adding Nightwish to my list of bands to jam to. I've been finding a lot of great music I wouldn't ordinarily encounter thanks to your vids, thanks!
At Wacken on several of the songs you will see a fan held sign saying. Tuomas thanks for all the emotions. Tuomas is the keyboard player, Composer and Lyric writer for Nightwish. I agree.
Keep exploring Nightwish. If you want their most recent music video, check out Noise, a great video. As far as a live performance, you should watch Dead Boy’s Poem from Buenos Aires. Enjoy!
This song always makes for some of the most amazing crowd interactions at live gigs. The last 'COME!' of the song always makes the venue almost shatter because everyone is singing along. Banger.
I love both the band as a whole and Floor in particular, just like you. But an even greater feat has to be Tuomas's ability to work the phrase "sedulous mice" into a heavy metal song. I'd like to see Metallica do *that*!
This was the first song everyone got to hear that was written for Floor. The lead single for this Endless Forms Most Beautiful record was going to be Edema Ruh. But Tuomas decided to go with Marko and Troy's suggestion that this song would be better.
Finnish Film Board, Famous Finnish actors, Railway Museum, Snowy Owl, Floor dressed as 1940's siren! Tuomas tree-hugging piano? Emppu in the swimming pool? What fun they had, did you see an actor put his hat on Emppu, then Emppu gives his guitar?
I have no idea what a lot of this song means but the line "Write a lyric for the song only you can understand" pretty much sums up that only Toumas knows what it really means. One music video you have to watch is "Noise", there is a lot of stuff in that one that will have you thinking for a while. Another video you should check out is "Ayreon - the day that the world breaks down". So much talent there and several familiar faces too.
Hello my friend. This is my first comment on your reaction . My friend you give the best reactions to nightwish. I join the nightwish army only a few years ago. And I am 58 and you are absolutely right they write their music very intelligently Thomas is a genius . My brain is also too small for there music. Lol. The only part that I can intelligently break down is the woohoo. Lol. I enjoy your reactions the most out of all reactors. And I am glad you are going down this rabbit hole. Keep on keeping on. And also you might want to take it out at all the songs that Floor has done on besta signers can't go wrong with that either. Now on a night with some maybe my Walden. If you haven't done it already.
If you want to hear a beautiful song with amazing lyrics, react to the lyric video of "The crow, the owl and the dove" with Nightwish. There are several videos made by fans and with cellphones but the quality is not good. And if you do the lyric video you automaticly get the lyrics. Win win. Its Anette who sings together with Marko. I love those lyrics and that is a song that suits Anette's voice perfectly
thank you, I've tried for hours to find out who sings this. It doesn't sound like Anette or at least was so different to the test of her songs that I really couldn't recognise her.
would it be wacken '13 time again 😁 I never get tired of watching the Dark chest of Wonders song. it proves that no other band will ever rise to the same level as Nighwish
Nice Reaction! I don´t know if you have already checked out "Ayreon - The Day that the world breaks down". It´s a very long video but I swear you would love it!
Friend, you analyzed it all so very well! And if ya wanna enjoy moor Floor: Ayreon please 🥰😛🤘 Beste Zangers 2019 please! Great having you around, man...really enjoying your presence! ❤ from The Netherlands.
Still waiting for you to do Floor with Henk Poort in Best Zangers for Phantom of the Opera. I have no doubt, she will blow your mind like never before!
Tuomas…the keyboardist…writes the vast majority of the music and lyrics. His songs are very often very personal and introspective and, as a result, can often be a bit difficult to interpret. The emotions, however, always come out in Floor’s singing. You may not understand the specific words, but you’ll get the intended emotions. Speaking of that…I’d recommend Dead Boy’s Poem live from Buenos Aires as a perfect example…the emotions Floor wrings out of the lyrics and sends out to the listener are pretty powerful in that one.☮️
Keep going, not bored yet!! This is the first single from Endless Forms Most Beautiful (it was originally going to be a different song but Tuomas was persuaded this worked better). It does the job beautifully - it's atmospheric, upbeat, and sounds great. (There's a nod back to it in the song "How's the Heart?" on the next album, you might or might not catch it when you see that.)
Great reaction as usual (with Floor and Nightwish !) I see recently you react to anime too (Attack on Titans) I love it ! I'm found of a recent anime which is as adult (Hard psychologicaly and physicaly) it's "Arcane" on Netflix. 9 episodes of pure perfection !
Apologies if you have already done this, but perhaps Ayreon is the fifth “band” you are thinking of, not that Ayreon is a band, more a project of a Dutchman named Arjen Lucassen. He writes the songs and then gathers the best musicians and singers he can find to perform them. The best place to start would be “The Day That The World Breaks Down”, as Arjen adds a bit of commentary as to what is going on in subtitles. th-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/w-d-xo.html
Nightwish (checked), Epica (Checked)... maybe that one band you're missing is another Dutch symphonic metal band called Delain? Their Live at Paradiso 2016 is magical. Hit after hit after hit and they also like to feature many well-known musicians from the metal community in their concerts so you could recognise few faces among their guest performers.
Great reaction as always. I can't take personal responsibility for your rabbit holes but I know I've recommended quite a few of them to you - Nightwish, Babymetal, Lovebites etc. If you want new recommendations, I would suggest a German band called 'Beyond the Black ' and - 'Amaranthe' (Swedish) who are both incidentally doing a European tour together - ( I'll be going to the London gig in October) but I heartily recommend them. Also 'Unleash the Archers' - A Canadian band of extremely proficient musicians! Arch Enemy too maybe! Take good care of yourself 😃 🙂
All those extras in MV are Finnish movie icons. A listers. Tuomas has said that they wanted to bring old places back to life. Like that bar for example.
Great reaction dude! Please check out Kamelot, with whom Floor and Simone from Epica has collaborated. Official videos or live performances of: Liar Liar Sacrimony Phantom Divine to start with. Tommy Karevik on vocals is so good and the band is excellent. Best wishes from Namibia 🇳🇦
Thank you for another fun video, it's so nice seeing someone discovering and thouroughly enjoying new music. As for recommendations: you mentioned Epica so maybe the other band people might have suggested could've been Within Temptation (another Dutch band!). I personally love their breakthrough song "Ice Queen". And if you want to know why you can now admire Floor so much, it's thanks to Dutch metal band The Gathering, who then had female vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen (from 1994-2006). Anneke inspired her to go metal! I can highly recommend listening to "Travel" ( th-cam.com/video/Y46Lft_BZxo/w-d-xo.html ) or "Nighttime Birds". If you want to hear Floor and Anneke sing together with Marcela Bovio then there is the beautiful live version of "Valley of the Queens" by Ayreon.
Delain is one of the 5 big Symphonic Metal bands next to Nightwish, Kamelot, Epica and Within Temptation. Dutch Symphonic Metal Band DELAIN has just released a new single for an up-and-coming album. The single is called THE QUEST AND THE CURSE. Keyboard player Martijn Westerholt has brought about a major lineup change in his brain-child band, bringing back the original drummer and guitar player who were both on the first two albums, and along with a brand-new singer and bass player this is one kick ass tune! I think you would enjoy it and I'd love to see you react to this new song! Here is a link: th-cam.com/video/QKmVMaF60zA/w-d-xo.html
As others have said this song is a celebration of life. My favorite line and the 1 that shows this the most is "dance a jig at the funeral" basically don't morn death celebrate life
Hello G.O.T Games ! I like the way you react so genuine way. Yes, there IS one more group to you to check out. Wintersun. This band is something else, but you got to check it out by yourself. It is a Finnish band too, and full of talent, that is why Tuomas Holopainen picked out todays NW drummer, Kai Hahto and basist Jukka Koskinen from Wintersun to play with Nightwish. If it´s possible take "Sons of Winter and Stars" or "Time" from their live Rehearsals at Sonic Pump Studios in Finland. There is Kai Hahto on drums and Jukka Koskinen with his bass, this is really epic. As a subscriber I hope we´ll see you reacting Wintersun one sunny day,- or nighty night. Greets from Finland. Take care.
Sense you like bands like Nightwish and you’re currently watching AoT you should check out Epica’s cover of “Crimson Bow and Arrow” the first attack on titan opening
I recommend you to react to "Deep Silent Complete" live from Buenos Aires (th-cam.com/video/aP5YhYzZmwc/w-d-xo.html), it's a beautiful song that almost no reactor do. Another one missing from Gabriel's list is the gorgeous "Dead Boy's Poem" also from Buenos Aires (th-cam.com/video/S8E3L7ggLMM/w-d-xo.html). Or if you want to be blown away by Tarja you can do "Swanheart" (th-cam.com/video/pS0OUENEOrk/w-d-xo.html), sorry for the spanish subtitles but is the only one I found with the whole intro. You can experience Swanheart by Tarja's voice only as it's not has been performed by Floor or Anette and is said that Tuomas wont let that ever happen. Cheers from Argentina!!!
This song songs like….. Joy. And the song of “right.” Or maybe “the white” for the Stephen King fans out there. The sound of comfort. Tuomas has some sort of talent for tapping into the very vein of human emotion.
If you are looking for another Band to checkout Evergrey who are a Swedish Band from any album is good A new Album this year “Save Us” “Midwinter Calls but any you choose is great From there previous album Where August Mourns or Eternal Nocturnal There is a calab with Floor” In Orbit” but they are great without making a connection through her
I always enjoy your reaction videos, especially to nightwish. I would recommend another band, since you like melodic metal and things like that I would love to see you react on arch enemy - the eagle flies alone 🤘 the singer did a short show in the states with nightwish because at that time annette Olzon was sick. 🤘🤘🤘
And we Finns just lost Jussi Hakulinen, Antti Litja and Vesa-Matti Loiri... i still think this is beautiful song about Death... everyone is going to die... but it is beautiful...
I’m seeing a huge gap in your reactions: Ayreon, Wintersun and Epica (beyond Sancta Terra). All three are interconnected with Nightwish, BTW. Ayreon - the Day the World Breaks Down, Everyone Dies and Valley of the Queens. Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars. Epica - Consign to Oblivion. All starter songs…..
Sorry you didn't check out EPICA really. You checked out Epica feat. Floor. To get an idea of Epica please react to "Kingdom of Heaven Part 3" Omega Alive. Then you will get an idea how diverse Epica is. 😊 you have no clue about that band and why NW and Epica are the best, the Yin and Yan of Metal music.
Its pronounced "A-lan" Its a French word and the accent (the line above the "E") makes it sound like saying the letter "A" in English Love the tree growing out of Tuomas's keyboard!
Check out Guylain / Lectio Musica who tries to break out & analyze lyrics, mostly makes a lot of sense (in other tracks too), even if the conclusion wasn't always correct, but at least there is some explanation/interpretation of what has been going on in Tuomas' mind (also in his comment section) th-cam.com/video/JPl_NbEuOIE/w-d-xo.html
So what should we call you? G.O.T is little bit gamer name, so could we get some good new stage name for you? Anyways, have you reacted to all the Human Nature album's song yet? Those are good. Some of the songs were done in NW livestream concert. Those can be found from YT. Because there are so many different types of songs, Album's second CD is an instrumental disc. Very good too, especially if you watch the video at same time.

Floor in this one... Wow!

You should check out Floor and her idiol, Henk Poort singing Phantom of the opera together. It's from a Dutch show where all the best singers from the Netherlands sing a few songs. This clip went very viral. Would like to hear your opinion about this awesome duet as a reaction video. And Henk Poort is awesome btw. th-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/w-d-xo.html
Sorry. To bysy watching the Norwegian Football Side Bodø/Glimt beating Dinamo Zagreb i Champions League Playoff..
I DO love Elan, though
could you please do the openings of bleach. make sure to do the official anime openings
Undoubtedly the BEST Live band and female vocalist on the planet! The compositions and Floor's vocals bring out an emotional reaction like no other band and singer has for me and so many .

Thomas never reveille's the meaning he feels.
Because his songs are self-explanatory. Or have a specific meaning for every other person listening to it.
@@ejllamobeolan5025 I was just quoting his statement from _Underground Metal._
Wow that makes a lot of sense watching it now and really is quite a beautiful message with a lovely ending on the video ❤️
Élan means vitality of spirit… and the song is inviting you to chase away the darkness by grasping the magical things in life and running with them. Basically… it’s about “Awesome”. 😛
Ah love that!!!! ❤️🤘
This is a special one .
Tuomas Holopainen said: "'Oh, while I live to be the ruler of life, Not a slave. To meet life as a powerful conqueror, and nothing exterior to me will ever take command of me.' This beautiful quote from my hero Uncle Walt [Walt Whitman] was the starting point for writing 'Élan'.
"The underlying theme of the song is nothing less than the meaning of life, which can be something different for all of us.

However, I think this song allows you to give it your own interpretation.
NWSU 🤘😎🤘
The music video for the song features several famous Finnish actors and was "inspired by the untold stories of abandoned places around Finland
RIP Ismo Kallio and Antti Litja, The Great Actors 🫶🏼

Still here. Keep going! Awesome reaction as always, thanks for taking the time to record it! Looking forward to the next!
Ok, adding Nightwish to my list of bands to jam to. I've been finding a lot of great music I wouldn't ordinarily encounter thanks to your vids, thanks!
Welcome to the Army 🤘
At Wacken on several of the songs you will see a fan held sign saying. Tuomas thanks for all the emotions. Tuomas is the keyboard player, Composer and Lyric writer for Nightwish. I agree.

Awesome reaction!!! Next you need to see "7 Days to the Wolves" Live at Wembley. It's another deep one - Nightwish at their most intensive level 🔥🔥🔥
I concur!
Couple of other groups to checkout: Unleash the Archers (start with AWAKENING) and Kamelot (LIAR, LIAR)
Finnish Film Board, Famous Finnish actors, Railway Museum, Snowy Owl,
Floor dressed as 1940's siren!
Tuomas tree-hugging piano?
Emppu in the swimming pool?
What fun they had, did you see an actor put his hat on Emppu, then Emppu gives his guitar?
I have no idea what a lot of this song means but the line "Write a lyric for the song only you can understand" pretty much sums up that only Toumas knows what it really means.

Oh by the way you might want to check out (With in Temptation )
I read the news today that Nightwish is just listening to new demos before the recording of the new album starts 😁 I can't wait.
Great reaction! Nightwish songs always have a deeper meaning. They are truly amazing!
Hi crazy man, beautiful reaction, you're not alone to say you love Floor, you're with the whole Nightwish Army
If you want to hear a beautiful song with amazing lyrics, react to the lyric video of "The crow, the owl and the dove" with Nightwish. There are several videos made by fans and with cellphones but the quality is not good. And if you do the lyric video you automaticly get the lyrics. Win win.
Its Anette who sings together with Marko. I love those lyrics and that is a song that suits Anette's voice perfectly
Yes! this is one of the best songs with Anette too
thank you, I've tried for hours to find out who sings this. It doesn't sound like Anette or at least was so different to the test of her songs that I really couldn't recognise her.
This and Rest Calm are some of my favorites with Anette.
Nightwish are much better LIVE than any studio version... 😉 Please go on with LIVE videos. Anyway, great reaction like always! 🤗
would it be wacken '13 time again 😁 I never get tired of watching the Dark chest of Wonders song. it proves that no other band will ever rise to the same level as Nighwish
Nice Reaction!
I don´t know if you have already checked out "Ayreon - The Day that the world breaks down". It´s a very long video but I swear you would love it!
Yep. They're magical.
Friend, you analyzed it all so very well!
And if ya wanna enjoy moor Floor: Ayreon please 🥰😛🤘
Beste Zangers 2019 please!
Great having you around, man...really enjoying your presence! ❤ from The Netherlands.
Can you please do Master passion greed and Ghost river live with Floor?
Still waiting for you to do Floor with Henk Poort in Best Zangers for Phantom of the Opera. I have no doubt, she will blow your mind like never before!
I second that !!!
Amaranthe is a great song and video. Plus you get to hear Annette at her best.
Always emotional with Élan. Was the first song of Nightwish i've listen. Definitely my favourite band since 🤟
Élan's music video is so special and beautiful, is something different than what they've done before, this is when Our Queen's reign begun 💖
I would argue it started at Wacken 2013, but I know what you mean, this was Floors first original single.
I really enjoyed this reaction. And I love this song... so beautiful. Nightwish performers are the masters of atmosphere for sure.
Your right ... Floor is the no 1 ... beauty and brains and the amazing voice !
Please don't ever stop reacting to Nightwish or everything Floor Jansen, because your genuine joy and enthusiasm (and glossy eyes) make ME go: 🥺🥲🥰
Tuomas…the keyboardist…writes the vast majority of the music and lyrics. His songs are very often very personal and introspective and, as a result, can often be a bit difficult to interpret.

Within Temptation? Delain? The Gathering? Plenty of others to choose from too. Cheers!
Great reaction 🔥 It’s about time for a GRAILKNIGHTS reaction “PUMPING IRON POWER “ 👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome ....One of my favorites where Marko shines through with his voice just backing up.
Try Buenos Aires 2018, great songs there. Dead Boys poem and some older ones like gethsemane
I love the fact that someone who might have English for their 2nd or 3rd language weilds it so beautifully. Tuomas is amazing
Love Marcos harmonies.
Tuomas writes the lyrics (almost all - a very few by Marco).
How about sone Wintersun, the band that is Nightwish's ante-room.
oh yeah, i'd love to see you do "sons of winter and stars" or "time".
Within Temptation, another long time band with an incredible catalog. They are superb live also.
Great reaction as usual (with Floor and Nightwish !) I see recently you react to anime too (Attack on Titans) I love it ! I'm found of a recent anime which is as adult (Hard psychologicaly and physicaly) it's "Arcane" on Netflix. 9 episodes of pure perfection !
Yay one of my all time favorite songs!!
Apologies if you have already done this, but perhaps Ayreon is the fifth “band” you are thinking of, not that Ayreon is a band, more a project of a Dutchman named Arjen Lucassen. He writes the songs and then gathers the best musicians and singers he can find to perform them. The best place to start would be “The Day That The World Breaks Down”, as Arjen adds a bit of commentary as to what is going on in subtitles. th-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/w-d-xo.html
Thx for this one. Next one should be: I want my tears back (live from Buenos Aires) 👍😎‼️
Nightwish (checked), Epica (Checked)... maybe that one band you're missing is another Dutch symphonic metal band called Delain? Their Live at Paradiso 2016 is magical. Hit after hit after hit and they also like to feature many well-known musicians from the metal community in their concerts so you could recognise few faces among their guest performers.
Next Ghost River also from Wacken 2013
Great reaction as always. I can't take personal responsibility for your rabbit holes but I know I've recommended quite a few of them to you - Nightwish, Babymetal, Lovebites etc. If you want new recommendations, I would suggest a German band called 'Beyond the Black ' and - 'Amaranthe' (Swedish) who are both incidentally doing a European tour together - ( I'll be going to the London gig in October) but I heartily recommend them. Also 'Unleash the Archers' - A Canadian band of extremely proficient musicians! Arch Enemy too maybe! Take good care of yourself 😃 🙂
Enthusiastic reaction! Tuomas is a genius and the songs reflect the best talents of the musicians and especially Floor .
This is the song I want them to play on my funeral...
All those extras in MV are Finnish movie icons. A listers. Tuomas has said that they wanted to bring old places back to life. Like that bar for example.
Great reaction dude! Please check out Kamelot, with whom Floor and Simone from Epica has collaborated. Official videos or live performances of:
Liar Liar
Sacrimony
Phantom Divine
to start with. Tommy Karevik on vocals is so good and the band is excellent.
Best wishes from Namibia 🇳🇦
Thank you for another fun video, it's so nice seeing someone discovering and thouroughly enjoying new music. As for recommendations: you mentioned Epica so maybe the other band people might have suggested could've been Within Temptation (another Dutch band!). I personally love their breakthrough song "Ice Queen". And if you want to know why you can now admire Floor so much, it's thanks to Dutch metal band The Gathering, who then had female vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen (from 1994-2006). Anneke inspired her to go metal! I can highly recommend listening to "Travel" ( th-cam.com/video/Y46Lft_BZxo/w-d-xo.html ) or "Nighttime Birds". If you want to hear Floor and Anneke sing together with Marcela Bovio then there is the beautiful live version of "Valley of the Queens" by Ayreon.
Hey, you should definitely check out Nightwish Endless Forms Most Beautiful official music video, awesome thanks request 😀
You must watch bye bye beautiful its an amazing vidio
Delain is one of the 5 big Symphonic Metal bands next to Nightwish, Kamelot, Epica and Within Temptation. Dutch Symphonic Metal Band DELAIN has just released a new single for an up-and-coming album. The single is called THE QUEST AND THE CURSE. Keyboard player Martijn Westerholt has brought about a major lineup change in his brain-child band, bringing back the original drummer and guitar player who were both on the first two albums, and along with a brand-new singer and bass player this is one kick ass tune! I think you would enjoy it and I'd love to see you react to this new song! Here is a link: th-cam.com/video/QKmVMaF60zA/w-d-xo.html
As others have said this song is a celebration of life. My favorite line and the 1 that shows this the most is "dance a jig at the funeral" basically don't morn death celebrate life
Within Temptation is the other band you were trying to think of as far as Nightwish/ Epica, etc.
Would love to see you react to their song Tribal or Shoemaker by this band.
Dead boys poem live 2018
Come... rise up, start living in the full spiritual sense!
Hello G.O.T Games ! I like the way you react so genuine way.
Yes, there IS one more group to you to check out. Wintersun.
This band is something else, but you got to check it out by yourself.
It is a Finnish band too, and full of talent, that is why Tuomas Holopainen
picked out todays NW drummer, Kai Hahto and basist Jukka Koskinen from
Wintersun to play with Nightwish. If it´s possible take "Sons of Winter and Stars"
or "Time" from their live Rehearsals at Sonic Pump Studios in Finland. There is Kai
Hahto on drums and Jukka Koskinen with his bass, this is really epic.
As a subscriber I hope we´ll see you reacting Wintersun one sunny day,- or nighty night. Greets from Finland. Take care.
All of the older people in the video are Finnish celebrities.
Famous actors and actresses. Couple of them are no longer with us... 😞
@@Charon152 R.I.P amazing actors i dont know them, but they are amazing.( i am german) 🤘🤘🤘
@@Charon152 Ah, yes! I really should have been more specific. Thanks for helping out with the details! 👍
Sense you like bands like Nightwish and you’re currently watching AoT you should check out Epica’s cover of “Crimson Bow and Arrow” the first attack on titan opening
Enjoyed your reaction as always! ❤️Wafflegang❤️
I recommend you to react to "Deep Silent Complete" live from Buenos Aires (th-cam.com/video/aP5YhYzZmwc/w-d-xo.html), it's a beautiful song that almost no reactor do. Another one missing from Gabriel's list is the gorgeous "Dead Boy's Poem" also from Buenos Aires (th-cam.com/video/S8E3L7ggLMM/w-d-xo.html). Or if you want to be blown away by Tarja you can do "Swanheart" (th-cam.com/video/pS0OUENEOrk/w-d-xo.html), sorry for the spanish subtitles but is the only one I found with the whole intro. You can experience Swanheart by Tarja's voice only as it's not has been performed by Floor or Anette and is said that Tuomas wont let that ever happen. Cheers from Argentina!!!
Love this song and video! :)
This song songs like….. Joy. And the song of “right.” Or maybe “the white” for the Stephen King fans out there. The sound of comfort. Tuomas has some sort of talent for tapping into the very vein of human emotion.
A wonderful video to a great song :)
If you are looking for another Band to checkout Evergrey who are a Swedish Band from any album is good
A new Album this year “Save Us” “Midwinter Calls but any you choose is great
From there previous album Where August Mourns or Eternal Nocturnal
There is a calab with Floor” In Orbit” but they are great without making a connection through her
I call Tuomas "God in a tophat "
I always enjoy your reaction videos, especially to nightwish. I would recommend another band, since you like melodic metal and things like that I would love to see you react on arch enemy - the eagle flies alone 🤘 the singer did a short show in the states with nightwish because at that time annette Olzon was sick. 🤘🤘🤘
And we Finns just lost Jussi Hakulinen, Antti Litja and Vesa-Matti Loiri... i still think this is beautiful song about Death... everyone is going to die... but it is beautiful...
I’m seeing a huge gap in your reactions: Ayreon, Wintersun and Epica (beyond Sancta Terra). All three are interconnected with Nightwish, BTW. Ayreon - the Day the World Breaks Down, Everyone Dies and Valley of the Queens. Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars. Epica - Consign to Oblivion. All starter songs…..
See the live version it's very good
Yes, I feel exactly the same🙏
Sorry you didn't check out EPICA really. You checked out Epica feat. Floor. To get an idea of Epica please react to "Kingdom of Heaven Part 3" Omega Alive. Then you will get an idea how diverse Epica is. 😊 you have no clue about that band and why NW and Epica are the best, the Yin and Yan of Metal music.
Marko playing a double bass - that's a first!
Hi, you should defenitly see Hellfest 2022 : Nightwish at its best !
Thanks
Keep going down the rabbit hole for sure, but...I wonder if it's time to check out Ayreon or Wintersun? Hmmm.
Tuomas is the MetalMozart, who creates all this.
Its pronounced "A-lan" Its a French word and the accent (the line above the "E") makes it sound like saying the letter "A" in English
Love the tree growing out of Tuomas's keyboard!
Witrhin Temptation is the group you might want to check out
pease ... " react 2020 em uma musica" This video already has over 16 million views and it's insane
Please react to another Finnish band "Poets of the Fall". My fave songs from them are "Carnival of Rust", "Daze" and "Choice Millionaire".
React to overlord openings you will love it
she is called the Vakyrian Godess or something like i think !!!
We love your reactions! But please learn the members names! Tuomas writers all the music & lyrics....
Me patiently waiting for the next reaction of Attack on Titans. 🧘🏾♂️
Check out Guylain / Lectio Musica who tries to break out & analyze lyrics, mostly makes a lot of sense (in other tracks too), even if the conclusion wasn't always correct, but at least there is some explanation/interpretation of what has been going on in Tuomas' mind (also in his comment section)
th-cam.com/video/JPl_NbEuOIE/w-d-xo.html
So what should we call you? G.O.T is little bit gamer name, so could we get some good new stage name for you?
Anyways, have you reacted to all the Human Nature album's song yet? Those are good. Some of the songs were done in NW livestream concert. Those can be found from YT. Because there are so many different types of songs, Album's second CD is an instrumental disc. Very good too, especially if you watch the video at same time.
I've heard Floor teaches angels to sing.
So this message is after the fact by a few months but have you checked out Gloryhammer? Rise of the Chaos Wizards is one I would recommend.
