@@millennialmeetsmusic A floorgasm is dope and food for the soldiers of the Nightwish Army. It is real and natural on the one hand and magical and divine on the other.
Yes, again a soul is taken by our Dutch Valkyrie Goddes of Metal, more Floor Jansen, watch the beste zangers 2019, she sings in different styles and different languages.. She sings O Mio Babbino Caro and from the gamecube game Final Fantasy Chronicals, Sound of the Wind.. there is even a video with all the endings of GLS and a video where she even sings the Yellow Pages on a radio-show.. Floor is working on different projects of Ayreon too, Valley of the Queens and The Day The World Break Down are good ones to start with...
Hi my friend fantastic reaction welcome to nightwish general Gabriel will leave you a list of nightwish songs keep to his list and you will not go wrong enjoy your nightwish journey it's going to be epic love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍
"I love her" is a common enough reaction to seeing Floor Jansen crank out an epic performance! I noticed you used the word "empowered" twice, at the beginning and the end. I agree. People have a lot of preconceptions about Metal; that it is dark or satanic of gorey (and it can be those things) but it also has incredible narrative power, fantastic musicianship, and it can be comforting, uplifting, or empowering.
Nightwish with Floor on vocals is just the best. Everyone is so talented, and the way Floor can bring out the emotions of Tuomas' music is such a talent.
the North German Division of the Nightwish Army reports !! We are there. special greetings to the General of the Army > GabrielBardac < (in your comments) and of course the rest of the Nightwish army and the sabaton family The Bande Vocals : Floor Jansen Bass,Vocals : Marco Hietala Guitar : Emppu Vuorinen Keyboards,Songwriting. : Tuomas Holopainen Uilleann Pipes : Troy Donockley Drums :1-Jukka Nevalainen until 2013 /and then 2-Kai Hahto.

Well you already know that Nightwish army is here, finn living in Sweden. All song are different and often you get a new favorite. GL on your journey Lady Millenial.
You said you don't listen to Metal music, but you may find out, like many others, that Nightwish is the best gateway band to metal. They are so so good. I'm here as subscriber #845 looking forward to you discovering more NIghtwish.
Most of the crowd had not heard Floor with Nightwish. She had only been with the band for 10 months at this time. This is the 13th song of a 15 song setlist.....however, Floor has the crowd in the palm of her hand from the beginning of the concert.
Nightwish Army Switzerland reports for Duty! Nice reaction and congrats to your very first floorgasms! There are so many great songs to explore, it's worth to go down this rabbit hole! Our General Gabriel will guide you soon. Keep going, you got a new Subscriber. 😎👍
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! Gabriel Bardac entered ! Floor her name is derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring, Flora. Floor Jansen is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy. Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F6). She can sing from classical to belting and raspy vocals like screaming and death growls. And she's also a voice coach and teacher to boot. Plus, huge vocal nerd 😉. Floor Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. She studied musical theatre and a year of opera. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016. From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon (Second singer of Nightwish after Tarja) as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour (And she had to learn the setlist in 48h). On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020. And the master of this magic is: Our Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen (founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish) Tuomas the keyboardist writes about 95% of Nightwish songs, music and lyrics. He also composes the music for the backing track they use. It is recorded in London with musicians from The London Philharmonics. Pip Williams helps with the orchestration. There are two London based choirs too on the backing track, the other one is a children's choir. And of course with a synth you can do a lot. This was recorded at the 2013 Wacken (pronounced Vahken) Open Air festival in Germany in front of an audience of 82,000 people. The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival. We hope, that there is more coming. NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment this, really appreciate it! I'm really enjoying learning about NW and their background! Truly are incredible! Hope life is treating you well 💜
You do know that the keyboards he is using can have the recorded orchestra parts installed in them. They played most of the music even the recorded parts.
@@mooncritter721 _You can't mean that, e.g everything in that magic interlude from bassoon to choir always sounds the same no matter which performance you take,if played live you would expect slight differences, some improvisation which would be great. For me it sounds like a tape but that isn't bad while it was played the best way thinkable..
Hello Becky. Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands. Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish. They are from Finland. And they make Symphonic Metal. What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do. Nightwish really hits you in your heart. And that's what makes this band so unique. Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch. There were 82,000 people there. I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion. Watch out for the Nightwish Army. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Just bear in mind that this singer is Floor Jansen. An over 6ft tall Dutch Goddess. She is the third singer with the band and only with them ten months here. She is singing songs written for previous two singers and slaying all of them. Most of the 82,000 people had never heard her sing with Nightwish but she won over virtually all of them.
@@anastasiamironova8490 I've only been a singer for over 50 years and can tell truly good singers and if you can say the same then I will accept your criticism otherwise I guess you're just another Tarja fan.
welcome to the world of nigtwish where you will be taken to the best Rollercoaster ride of your life and as you journey through floorgasms after floorgasm(we the Nightwish army calls those goosebumps as floorgasms) we the nightwish army will be with you throughout your entire Nightwish Journey.

Awesome Floor is ash tag 1 queen of rock in the world today - or in over words if you are a nightwish fan a Goddess love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍 have fun with nightwish so many great songs 👍
Ah, what fun! 😊 May I suggest as a future reaction: Shoemaker from the Hellfest 2022 performance. I bet you end up in tears by the sheer beauty at the end of this song. It may be handy to read the story of this song before watching it.
Gabriel will give you all the best quality versions of their songs. Nice reaction! Hope you continue your Nightwish journey. PS please increase the music volume, it’s a tad low.
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.1) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: Energize me: th-cam.com/video/fjm4BrNAf6s/w-d-xo.html Monolith of Doubt: th-cam.com/video/3TmKHkQx45U/w-d-xo.html Dreamflight: th-cam.com/video/73-_F9prx4I/w-d-xo.html Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). Here is a link to a part of a TV show (with english subtitles) of the reunion of the class of the Rock Academy with mostly backstage footage of the Tampere concert of Nightwish in 2015: th-cam.com/video/B3NIfu0qvtg/w-d-xo.html 'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: Misery’s no Crime: th-cam.com/video/SNPesLFTnUg/w-d-xo.html Disdain: th-cam.com/video/tIqzPXzhEuw/w-d-xo.html Wild card: th-cam.com/video/GpZMFALYeGc/w-d-xo.html Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: th-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/w-d-xo.html Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see:: th-cam.com/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/w-d-xo.html A suggestion to a christmas song sung by Floor. Here is a link to a performance in Finland with a special guest with the best seat you could imagine: th-cam.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/w-d-xo.html Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on TH-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa:, th-cam.com/video/QqdvFPBGN0c/w-d-xo.html and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini: th-cam.com/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/w-d-xo.html As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered TH-cam in the last year. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish:. th-cam.com/video/QW_3F186_5Q/w-d-xo.html Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of the presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughter Freja (6 years old this month), a horse and pony, a dog and a bunch of cats, she found this.
Wow! That's super impressive! Ooo I defo want to see her react to her own performance, that'd be super cool! Thank you for taking the time to comment this! Hope life is treating you well💜
I see that the army is already flooding in. Empowered, that's the best word to describe the vibe this band is giving. Nightwish is a band that connects so many people form different countries and different age groups. I myself am 66, a long time fan. Loved every singer, and listening every day to this amazing group. Have fun with the journey.
This is the 13th song of a 15 song set hence the small breaks , the stamina is incredible and shout out for the drummer . I bought this CD as soon as i heard this phenominal song
NightWish Army Wisconsin Chapter here. Welcome to NightWish. Yes, we LOVE our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen, pronounced Yansen. Watch for General Gabriel as he will lead you on an unforgettable journey! Welcome to the NightWish Army!
Great reaction tx, you should also listen and react to Floor jansen together with Henk Poort singing The phantom of the opera in program called "Beste Zangers 2019", it is absolutely amazing, best duet ever......... Greetings from Holland
Welcome to the Nightwish family. You're brand new to YT and came across my favorite band so quickly - great. For this you will immediately receive a subscription from me. Gabriel has already given you all the basic information about Nightwish and Floor, as well as a whole list of top songs. Nice to have you on board;best regards Kelsea cu soon 👋
2:54 Emppu Vuorinen, aka the wandering guitarist. 😂 i'm glad you like this song. Each Nightwish's song is a new journey into their world. Greetings from France ! 🤘
@@millennialmeetsmusic Of course, I'm joking when I call him the wandering guitarist, because he always walks from side to side of the stage, but He has many nicknames: the Riff Maker, the Hobbit... 😆 Myself, i like to call him the High Elf, even if he's a bit short for the role 😅
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!! The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Sensory overload….NW style!!
Welcome to the night wish army and the Magic voice of Floor Jansen. Anything she sings it will blow your mind I’m sure you’re gonna get hundreds if not thousands of Nightwish army people embracing your newfound experience with Nightwish. Pick any live song you’ll be in love with the band your friend in Oregon Mike
Great reaction! I have liked and subscribed and really hope you continue your Nightwish journey. 👍 It’s not only a great band but they also have the best and friendliest fan base as I’m sure you will notice really soon.
Tickets for the concert sold out a year in advance. They had a different singer then. When she was substituted in (not yet permanent), many people didn't know what to expect. By halfway through, they were POSITIVE they loved her. This song was third from last in the concert. This is Symphonic Metal. Evanescence is more metal/rock (though there are heavier and lighter songs).
Welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. This is one of the most epic live performances EVER. Everyone loves Floor (girls like to be like her, and boys want to be with her 😉). Glad you liked, and greetings from Finland! ⛄❄👍
Huge Nightwish Fan here, I hope you continue exploring them, Check out Storytime, Song of myself both from the same show. If you want a real treat check out Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembley (also live)... Basically anything live of their in amazing!!!
Great commentary. Your audio for the video and your mic are perfect. So many times when a reactor makes a quick comment while the video is playing, I can’t understand them because the mic gain is too low. Floor is tall and commenters keep raising her height. Pretty soon she will be 7’ tall. Her actual height is 183cm or slightly over 6’. They grow them tall in the Netherlands. She’s wearing heels in this 2013 show, but lately has been sporting boots for comfort. She’s 42 and it’s time to give them tootsies a break. Besides, she’s pregnant with her second child and currently performing. 😄🤘
Aww thank you so much. I really appreciate this comment more than you know 💜😊. Oh wow, that’s awesome! I love she’s still performing whilst pregnant, defo super empowering! Thank you 💜
Floorgasms are those goosebumps you are experiencing. Floorplay is her amazing onstage presence 🚬🥴 If you carry on down this rabbit hole,you will notice how floor dominates that stage and the crowd...she as them in the palm of her hand.👸🏻🫴
11:37 The Floorgasm brings yet another convert to the family !! 😁 Welcome Sister. You’re one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show, and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie Goddess, and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it. A breathtaking masterpiece sung by a Valkyrie Goddess… or what Nightwish thinks of as just another day. 💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙 Infantryman-Nightwish Army. US Regiment.

This is such an amazing song. I love your reaction so much. Just one thought. Perhaps have your voice a bit quieter because when you come in with your opinions it's very jarringly loud.
Hi Becky, What a lovely reaction. You smiled from ear to ear from the beginning until the end. Welcome to the Nightwish army and enjoy ( I'm absolutely sure you will) your forthcoming musical ride. Greetings fr😃🤘👏om Amsterdam.
YEAH Becky i love your face happiness 👏👏 And it is like you say all in Nightwish is 100% Musicians And Floors voice and charm is just stunning... I hope Becky that you get blue sticks from GABRIEL BARDAC hi has the best list to NIGHTWISH music journey...🇸🇪❤️🇸🇪❤️🇸🇪
i loved your increasing excitement while the song played Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish, welcome also to symphonic METAL yes, Nightwish is a metal band, you have to rethink of "i dont listen to metal" ;) next song, to get you really hooked, should be "Storytime" followed by "Ever Dream", "Romanticide", "Song of myself" and "last ride of the day", all from that amazing Wacken 2013 Open Air show Gabriel Bardac is already here, you should pay attention to his welcoming words and the links library i think, after "Storytime", you can never again say "i don´t listen to metal" greetings from NWA germany
@@millennialmeetsmusic Who you are i don´t know, but beeing open minded to all kinds of music is a wonderful thing. i will request something later to proof you ;) i just say "blackened Deathcore"- music that will make you emotional
oh yes, 2013, Wacken 85'000 fans and I was in the second row, that was an awesome concert/festival. Floor, Tuomas, Marco, Jukka and Empu .... still my favorite band members.
Listen to our General of the Nightwish Army, Gabriel Bardac. He is the perfect guide for what will become one of the most amazing musical journeys that you will ever experience.
Only a few minutes in, and I have already liked and subscribed! My minor quibble is that your voice is way louder than the audio from the band. Mad props though for giving the band such a generous amount of screen real estate!
Hi! Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish! this song represent them in a good way, but with that said, Nightwish is extremely versatile and "no song is like an other", you are in for a big musical treat if you continue reacting to them, and then The Nightwish Army will invade your channel as a bonus for you ;)
Good reaction! As I said on another reaction to this same performance earlier this evening, glad you enjoyed it so much, and there's plenty more to discover. I discovered Nightwish in an odd way. In 2019 my son was playing violin in an orchestra accompanying a band which covered one of their songs, which was the highlight of the set for me; so when YT recommended this video (shortly before lockdown) I dived right in and still haven't come up for air! I saw them live for the first time last year, and they are even more amazing than in the videos. Enjoy your journey!
This concert is coming up on a ten year anniversary and people are still reacting to this Concert! I saw this band live in LA last May, and it was one of the best live shows i've ever seen. They won me over . Now I'm a 71 year old fan boy.
Hey there! I'm glad you pointed out the crowd reaction at the end! The deal is that at this point, Floor was still filling in, and that ending stretch - including THAT note - was her personal contribution to the song. So the crowd mostly had never heard the song finished that way, and I'd say they approved. Welcome aboard the Nightwish Army! Rock on! 🤘😎👍
I think you are the adorable one - so lovely to see your joy, which makes me sort of relive my own joy of listening to this performance for the first time. :)
Greetings from Nightwish Army, Palm Springs, CA, USA! See below comment from Gabriel Bardac who will provide you with a band bio and list of links to best performances, in the Community tab on his YT channel...ready for more reactions!
7:42 I LOVE that big grin on your face! This, admittedly, is one of the best modern performances of anything, so you're a bit spoiled by this... but symphonic metal is pretty awesome, even if you're not into "heavy metal." Nightwish has many great song, and some of them are very deep emotionally/backstory.
Greetings from Connecticut Becky. Thanks for the great reaction to this epic Nightwish video with The Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen. The joy in your face made my day. Bless you and enjoy your Nightwish journey.
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, this is not what Americans and Brits hear on the radio, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Floor Jansen is not a angel but a Valkyrie, a leather clad Goddess sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin. Who was he? That was Emppu, he'd just been for a beer. Amy Lee, as you go down the Nightwish rabbit hole you'll stop making those comparisons They wasn't goose bumps, they were Floorgasms, and it looks like you had multiple. I see Gabriel has visited you, allow him to guide you in all things Nightwish.. Follow Gabriels advice.
❤ Great ❤ This was a very good reaction video. Pure entertainment. Although it seems that this song with all its facets and twists must be the tip of the iceberg - so one of the best songs of Nightwish, this view is far from it. This is "only" the prelude to something much bigger. I can recommend you to play the songs with subtitles and also give space to the lyrics - they are fantastic and give each song the icing on the cake. But for now, welcome to the world of Nightwish. I wish you a fantastic journey... 🏆👍
Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, excellente réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Faites le festival du Waken 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper. Les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe, vous venez d'écouter la chanson 13 sur les 15. Je crois qu''un peu de Romanticide , qu'il est temps d'une petite histoire comme Storytime ou de commencer plus doucement comme dit Floor avec Ever Dream...... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel devait arriver sous peu, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec un très bon audio. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir. Une dernière chose, lors de votre enregistrement activer les sous-titres, ainsi tout le monde pourra lire vos commentaires dans toutes les langues....... Bonne écoute et un nouvel abonné ici.......
Merci, je travaille définitivement sur l'apprentissage des sous-titres et j'essaie d'être aussi inclusif que possible. J'apprécie votre patience avec moi pendant que j'apprends cela. Merci d'avoir commenté. Je ne parle pas français, j'utilise google translate, mais je voulais être inclusif et je vous apprécie ! Thank you, I am definitely working on learning about subtitles and trying to be as inclusive as possible. I appreciate your patience with me while I learn this. Thank you for commenting. I do not speak french, I am using google translate, but I wanted to be inclusive and I appreciate you!
You have so much more to discover. This is a great performance, but you have the best ones in store. Every new Nightwish song you hear, will be your new favorite. It's a thing for new reactors ;)
I think so! I’m starting to pick up a theme for people suggesting similar songs for new reactors like me 😊. Definitely excited to react to more NW but still looking for balance too 🙂. You never know what I may end up liking, a surprise like this one 😀😀
Thank you "Millennial Meets Music" for the good music from Wacken near Hamburg 2013 with band Nightwish and singer Floor Jansen! One of the bist Metalshows ever in the world! 82.000 metalfans and 2022/23 sold total out. 🤟
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!
Oh what a lovely reaction. It hit me like the first ray of sun in the morning. May I suggest headphones, because you will be smiling a lot if you continue this journey, so your ear thingies will keep popping out. Greetings from Maui.
82,000 people in the palm of her hand! Unequaled stage presence!😂
Tuomas Holopainen (keyboards) is a founder of Nightwish, song writer and composer. He is our metal Mozart.
Another Soul Snatched by the Valkyrie Goddess
Not goosebumps... they're floorgasms. 🙂
😀🤣
@@millennialmeetsmusic No seriously, it's a real thing
@@millennialmeetsmusic A floorgasm is dope and food for the soldiers of the Nightwish Army. It is real and natural on the one hand and magical and divine on the other.
@@millennialmeetsmusic In your case, multiple Floorgasms! Very impressive.
@@millennialmeetsmusic Liked that did you?
Yes, again a soul is taken by our Dutch Valkyrie Goddes of Metal, more Floor Jansen, watch the beste zangers 2019, she sings in different styles and different languages.. She sings O Mio Babbino Caro and from the gamecube game Final Fantasy Chronicals, Sound of the Wind.. there is even a video with all the endings of GLS and a video where she even sings the Yellow Pages on a radio-show.. Floor is working on different projects of Ayreon too, Valley of the Queens and The Day The World Break Down are good ones to start with...
Always fun watching someone experience their first FLOORGASM !
Haha! (Also hello again hehe)
Hi my friend fantastic reaction welcome to nightwish general Gabriel will leave you a list of nightwish songs keep to his list and you will not go wrong enjoy your nightwish journey it's going to be epic love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍
Welcome, your infectious happiness is a wonderful addition to the Nightwish Army
Thank you, that’s sweet of you to say 💜
Discovering Nightwish is the most amazing musical journey. Enjoy!
Nice reaction. You're right: this more than a song, it is an epic journey.
Saw them at Wembly in November a good night out was had by all..
At this concert Floor was still the bands temp/singer..😎
Hail to the Queen, the Poet, the Riff-maker, the Groove master, the Piper of Heaven and to the Beat Lord ! Nightwish Army Italy present !
"I love her" is a common enough reaction to seeing Floor Jansen crank out an epic performance!
I noticed you used the word "empowered" twice, at the beginning and the end. I agree. People have a lot of preconceptions about Metal; that it is dark or satanic of gorey (and it can be those things) but it also has incredible narrative power, fantastic musicianship, and it can be comforting, uplifting, or empowering.
Definitely a mood booster for me at the moment, I've played it a few times now away from the video 😀😀💜
Nightwish with Floor on vocals is just the best. Everyone is so talented, and the way Floor can bring out the emotions of Tuomas' music is such a talent.
Hello again x3 hehe, thank you so much for commenting 😀
This is one of the best things ever. It's a shame the lineup had to change, but Nightwish evolves.
@@jovetj i certainly wish Marko was still there, as I miss his vocals. But his happiness comes first
@@randomman4938 Oh, I agree! But it doesn't help the disappointment.

Well you already know that Nightwish army is here, finn living in Sweden. All song are different and often you get a new favorite. GL on your journey Lady Millenial.
Thank you 😀💜
You said you don't listen to Metal music, but you may find out, like many others, that Nightwish is the best gateway band to metal. They are so so good. I'm here as subscriber #845 looking forward to you discovering more NIghtwish.
Aaaah! Thank you for being my 845th subscriber! Means the world! 💜
Most of the crowd had not heard Floor with Nightwish. She had only been with the band for 10 months at this time. This is the 13th song of a 15 song setlist.....however, Floor has the crowd in the palm of her hand from the beginning of the concert.
Agreed! This is incredible! 💜
Nightwish Army Switzerland reports for Duty! Nice reaction and congrats to your very first floorgasms! There are so many great songs to explore, it's worth to go down this rabbit hole! Our General Gabriel will guide you soon. Keep going, you got a new Subscriber. 😎👍
Thank you so much 💜
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! Gabriel Bardac entered !
Floor her name is derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring, Flora.
Floor Jansen is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy.
Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F6).
She can sing from classical to belting and raspy vocals like screaming and death growls. And she's also a voice coach and teacher to boot. Plus, huge vocal nerd 😉.
Floor Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. She studied musical theatre and a year of opera. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon (Second singer of Nightwish after Tarja) as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour (And she had to learn the setlist in 48h). On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020.
And the master of this magic is:
Our Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen (founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish)
Tuomas the keyboardist writes about 95% of Nightwish songs, music and lyrics. He also composes the music for the backing track they use. It is recorded in London with musicians from The London Philharmonics. Pip Williams helps with the orchestration. There are two London based choirs too on the backing track, the other one is a children's choir. And of course with a synth you can do a lot.
This was recorded at the 2013 Wacken (pronounced Vahken) Open Air festival in Germany in front of an audience of 82,000 people. The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival.
We hope, that there is more coming.
NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment this, really appreciate it! I'm really enjoying learning about NW and their background! Truly are incredible! Hope life is treating you well 💜
Let's not only hail the band but also the orchestra not present, their contribution to the song is priceless.
You do know that the keyboards he is using can have the recorded orchestra parts installed in them. They played most of the music even the recorded parts.
@@mooncritter721 _You can't mean that, e.g everything in that magic interlude from bassoon to choir always sounds the same no matter which performance you take,if played live you would expect slight differences, some improvisation which would be great. For me it sounds like a tape but that isn't bad while it was played the best way thinkable..
Hello Becky.
Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish.
They are from Finland.
And they make Symphonic Metal.
What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do.
Nightwish really hits you in your heart.
And that's what makes this band so unique.
Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch.
There were 82,000 people there.
I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion.
Watch out for the Nightwish Army.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thank you for commenting, appreciate the info and the warm welcome. Danke 😀
Just bear in mind that this singer is Floor Jansen. An over 6ft tall Dutch Goddess. She is the third singer with the band and only with them ten months here. She is singing songs written for previous two singers and slaying all of them. Most of the 82,000 people had never heard her sing with Nightwish but she won over virtually all of them.
Aaah I didn’t know that! Thank you 💜
Slaying? She is very good, but not COSMIC good and obviously not better then Tarja, at all, take plugs from your ears, dude
@@anastasiamironova8490 I've only been a singer for over 50 years and can tell truly good singers and if you can say the same then I will accept your criticism otherwise I guess you're just another Tarja fan.
The Guitarist was Emppu he was touching there arms as he was impressed with Floors vocals 🙂enjoy your journey
Emppu is the light against Tuomas' dark, checking on his friends and bringing positive camaraderie to the band.
Thank you :D
I thought he was the Floor manager, counting the band members.
Very important that they are all present on such an event.
welcome to the world of nigtwish where you will be taken to the best Rollercoaster ride of your life and as you journey through floorgasms after floorgasm(we the Nightwish army calls those goosebumps as floorgasms) we the nightwish army will be with you throughout your entire Nightwish Journey. Keep em coming!
These guys of Nightwish are really amazing. Best band in the world!
I say....please keep reacting to Nightwish, and your journey will take you to far away places :)
Welcome, to Nightwish. :) Here is my list for you......but first.....
Floor Jansen (pronounced Yansen) who is actually Dutch and the 3rd of the bands lead singers.
By the way....she is 6'1" and known as the Valkyrie Goddess.
Marco - Bass and vocals (wait until you hear him sing with Floor and solo....)
This band is going to rock your world dude.
Emppu - Lead guitar
(jokester and very deliberative in his playing)
Jukka on drums, but had to stop due to insomnia (but is still behind the scenes with Nightwish), new drummer is Kai who was the drummer with Wintersun.
Tuomas - keyboards and main songwriter/choreographer for Nightwish aka genius. :)
And Troy, who you will see trust me, as he is vocals/flute/woodwind/bagpipes/you name it lol. :)

Wow this is an incredible comment! I really appreciate all this, thank you so much for taking the time to reply and suggestion all of these songs 💜💜
Awesome Floor is ash tag 1 queen of rock in the world today - or in over words if you are a nightwish fan a Goddess love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍 have fun with nightwish so many great songs 👍
Thank you 😀
Have you ever smiled so much your earphones came out of your ears? Why, yes... yes I have xD Love it.
Haha yeah! It’s definitely as issue! 🤣🤣
Ah, what fun! 😊
May I suggest as a future reaction: Shoemaker from the Hellfest 2022 performance. I bet you end up in tears by the sheer beauty at the end of this song. It may be handy to read the story of this song before watching it.
I concur. The lighting by the setting sun is stunning too.
or Deichbrand, as it is nighttime
Both, with the Sleeping Sun(🤗) or Deichbrand in the Night.
I concur. The official video is stunning too.
Gabriel will give you all the best quality versions of their songs.
Nice reaction! Hope you continue your Nightwish journey.
PS please increase the music volume, it’s a tad low.
Agreed, thank you 💜
Greatest band formed in the last 40 years. I had the privilege of finally seeing them live on their last US tour. What an experience.
Sounds amazing! 😀😀
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.1) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites:
Energize me: th-cam.com/video/fjm4BrNAf6s/w-d-xo.html
Monolith of Doubt: th-cam.com/video/3TmKHkQx45U/w-d-xo.html
Dreamflight: th-cam.com/video/73-_F9prx4I/w-d-xo.html
Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). Here is a link to a part of a TV show (with english subtitles) of the reunion of the class of the Rock Academy with mostly backstage footage of the Tampere concert of Nightwish in 2015: th-cam.com/video/B3NIfu0qvtg/w-d-xo.html
'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples:
Misery’s no Crime: th-cam.com/video/SNPesLFTnUg/w-d-xo.html
Disdain: th-cam.com/video/tIqzPXzhEuw/w-d-xo.html
Wild card: th-cam.com/video/GpZMFALYeGc/w-d-xo.html
Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: th-cam.com/video/vhExkmWKMEU/w-d-xo.html
Floor joined Nightwish after this iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see:: th-cam.com/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/w-d-xo.html
A suggestion to a christmas song sung by Floor. Here is a link to a performance in Finland with a special guest with the best seat you could imagine: th-cam.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/w-d-xo.html
Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on TH-cam. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa:, th-cam.com/video/QqdvFPBGN0c/w-d-xo.html
and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini: th-cam.com/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/w-d-xo.html
As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered TH-cam in the last year. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish:. th-cam.com/video/QW_3F186_5Q/w-d-xo.html
Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of the presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughter Freja (6 years old this month), a horse and pony, a dog and a bunch of cats, she found this.
Wow! That's super impressive! Ooo I defo want to see her react to her own performance, that'd be super cool! Thank you for taking the time to comment this! Hope life is treating you well💜
I see that the army is already flooding in. Empowered, that's the best word to describe the vibe this band is giving. Nightwish is a band that connects so many people form different countries and different age groups. I myself am 66, a long time fan. Loved every singer, and listening every day to this amazing group. Have fun with the journey.
Thank you for commenting💜
The goosebumps are known as Floorgasms and there is no cure other than to listen to more !
Haha! That’s great! 😀
This is the 13th song of a 15 song set hence the small breaks , the stamina is incredible and shout out for the drummer . I bought this CD as soon as i heard this phenominal song
I concur. I bought it also
@@jacquisampson-marat5277 good girl
NightWish Army Wisconsin Chapter here. Welcome to NightWish. Yes, we LOVE our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen, pronounced Yansen. Watch for General Gabriel as he will lead you on an unforgettable journey! Welcome to the NightWish Army!
Thank you, he has already arrived 😀😀🥰
Great reaction tx, you should also listen and react to Floor jansen together with Henk Poort singing The phantom of the opera in program called "Beste Zangers 2019", it is absolutely amazing, best duet ever.........
Greetings from Holland
I concur
Duet of the century ❤
Welcome to Symphonic Metal, welcome to Nightwish and a special welcome to Floor Jansen
Great Reaction! This whole concert is a gem!!!! Watch it from the begining to the end!
Welcome to the Nightwish family. You're brand new to YT and came across my favorite band so quickly - great. For this you will immediately receive a subscription from me. Gabriel has already given you all the basic information about Nightwish and Floor, as well as a whole list of top songs. Nice to have you on board;best regards Kelsea cu soon 👋
Thank you 💜💜
2:54 Emppu Vuorinen, aka the wandering guitarist. 😂
i'm glad you like this song. Each Nightwish's song is a new journey into their world. Greetings from France ! 🤘
Aaahhh I did wonder, Merci 😀
@@millennialmeetsmusic Of course, I'm joking when I call him the wandering guitarist, because he always walks from side to side of the stage, but He has many nicknames: the Riff Maker, the Hobbit... 😆
Myself, i like to call him the High Elf, even if he's a bit short for the role 😅
Your live will never be the same again.....
It will not. It will be better.

Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 is..wow!!
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Sensory overload….NW style!!
Welcome to the night wish army and the Magic voice of Floor Jansen. Anything she sings it will blow your mind I’m sure you’re gonna get hundreds if not thousands of Nightwish army people embracing your newfound experience with Nightwish. Pick any live song you’ll be in love with the band your friend in Oregon Mike
Thank you 💜💜
Here you can watch her singing the phonebook "th-cam.com/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/w-d-xo.html"....
Great reaction! I have liked and subscribed and really hope you continue your Nightwish journey. 👍 It’s not only a great band but they also have the best and friendliest fan base as I’m sure you will notice really soon.
Definitely friendly, thank you so much!💜
Tickets for the concert sold out a year in advance. They had a different singer then. When she was substituted in (not yet permanent), many people didn't know what to expect. By halfway through, they were POSITIVE they loved her. This song was third from last in the concert. This is Symphonic Metal. Evanescence is more metal/rock (though there are heavier and lighter songs).
Thank you 💜
Welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. This is one of the most epic live performances EVER. Everyone loves Floor (girls like to be like her, and boys want to be with her 😉). Glad you liked, and greetings from Finland! ⛄❄👍
Haha! Thank you for commenting 😀
Huge Nightwish Fan here, I hope you continue exploring them, Check out Storytime, Song of myself both from the same show. If you want a real treat check out Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembley (also live)... Basically anything live of their in amazing!!!
vibed with this a ton. unbelievable energy. how come I’m finding them out for the first time? 🔥🔥🔥
Right?! I feel the same hehe 😀. Glad you like them 💜
Welcome to the Nightwish family Becky 🙂
💜💜
Good one. The whole show was/is excellent try any other song, Story Time, Ghost River, Song Of Myself, Nemo, Last Ride Of The Day etc.
Great commentary. Your audio for the video and your mic are perfect. So many times when a reactor makes a quick comment while the video is playing, I can’t understand them because the mic gain is too low. Floor is tall and commenters keep raising her height. Pretty soon she will be 7’ tall. Her actual height is 183cm or slightly over 6’. They grow them tall in the Netherlands. She’s wearing heels in this 2013 show, but lately has been sporting boots for comfort. She’s 42 and it’s time to give them tootsies a break. Besides, she’s pregnant with her second child and currently performing. 😄🤘
Aww thank you so much. I really appreciate this comment more than you know 💜😊.
Oh wow, that’s awesome! I love she’s still performing whilst pregnant, defo super empowering! Thank you 💜
@@millennialmeetsmusic 👍😍
Floorgasms are those goosebumps you are experiencing.
Floorplay is her amazing onstage presence 🚬🥴
If you carry on down this rabbit hole,you will notice how floor dominates that stage and the crowd...she as them in the palm of her hand.👸🏻🫴
New words added to my vocabulary for sure! Thank you 😀😀
Those goosebumps you feel are called “Floorgasms for obvious reasons!!!
If you want the lyrics, you could always put the subtitles on (press CC)
Hi beautiful reaction, I am honored to welcome you on behalf of the Nightwish Army, greetings from Poland
💜
11:37 The Floorgasm brings yet another convert to the family !! 😁 Welcome Sister. You’re one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show, and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie Goddess, and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it.
A breathtaking masterpiece sung by a Valkyrie Goddess… or what Nightwish thinks of as just another day.
💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙

The Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembley 2016 th-cam.com/video/gbn9GczYBkw/w-d-xo.html (wait until you have a full understanding of the band’s history before you react to this one. It’ll add the context you need to fully appreciate this emotional masterpiece.)
Do not cut it off early, noted 😀💜
Ive played Ghost love score around the house now and it’s pretty epic 😀😀. Thank you for commenting 💜💜
This is such an amazing song. I love your reaction so much. Just one thought. Perhaps have your voice a bit quieter because when you come in with your opinions it's very jarringly loud.
Hi Becky,
What a lovely reaction. You smiled from ear to ear from the beginning until the end. Welcome to the Nightwish army and enjoy ( I'm absolutely sure you will) your forthcoming musical ride.
Greetings fr😃🤘👏om Amsterdam.
Danke 😀💜
Nightwish are their own genre. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
YEAH Becky i love your face happiness 👏👏 And it is like you say all in Nightwish is 100% Musicians And Floors voice and charm is just stunning... I hope Becky that you get blue sticks from GABRIEL BARDAC hi has the best list to NIGHTWISH music journey...🇸🇪❤️🇸🇪❤️🇸🇪
Thank you for commenting.
Sorry, blue sticks? 💜
i loved your increasing excitement while the song played
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish, welcome also to symphonic METAL
yes, Nightwish is a metal band, you have to rethink of "i dont listen to metal" ;)
next song, to get you really hooked, should be "Storytime" followed by "Ever Dream", "Romanticide", "Song of myself" and "last ride of the day", all from that amazing Wacken 2013 Open Air show
Gabriel Bardac is already here, you should pay attention to his welcoming words and the links library
i think, after "Storytime", you can never again say "i don´t listen to metal"
greetings from NWA germany
Hehe, I listen to metal now 😀 Who am I now!? Haha 💜
Thank you for commenting
@@millennialmeetsmusic Who you are i don´t know, but beeing open minded to all kinds of music is a wonderful thing.
i will request something later to proof you ;)
i just say "blackened Deathcore"- music that will make you emotional
oh yes, 2013, Wacken 85'000 fans and I was in the second row, that was an awesome concert/festival. Floor, Tuomas, Marco, Jukka and Empu .... still my favorite band members.
Listen to our General of the Nightwish Army, Gabriel Bardac. He is the perfect guide for what will become one of the most amazing musical journeys that you will ever experience.
I will 😀
Prepare for an Army invasion.. the Nightwish Army that is
That is the ultimate rock event. I really liked your reaction, great job.
Thanks! 💜
Only a few minutes in, and I have already liked and subscribed! My minor quibble is that your voice is way louder than the audio from the band. Mad props though for giving the band such a generous amount of screen real estate!
Thank you for your feedback. I’m tweaking as learn for sure, some songs are louder that others so defo need to practice 😀💜
welcome to the nightwish family
Hello 💜💜
Hello wonderful reaction. I love your screen. We see you, and Nightwish also big.
🤗😍Greetings rom Finland🇫🇮👋!
Awesome to see someone new discover Nightwish and Floor .
💜
Hi! Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish! this song represent them in a good way, but with that said, Nightwish is extremely versatile and "no song is like an other", you are in for a big musical treat if you continue reacting to them, and then The Nightwish Army will invade your channel as a bonus for you ;)
They definitely have made an impact already, what a friendly bunch of people! Proper cool! 💜
@@millennialmeetsmusic and... It will get even better! :)
You just had a Floorgasem. Welcome to Nightwish. Nightwish army from Connecticut
Welcome to NIGHTWISH.....enjoy your journey! 🤯🤘
Totally not on the floor right now...
Oh, trust us. You'll be on the Floor for a while.
All Nightwish songs are journeys.
Good reaction! As I said on another reaction to this same performance earlier this evening, glad you enjoyed it so much, and there's plenty more to discover. I discovered Nightwish in an odd way. In 2019 my son was playing violin in an orchestra accompanying a band which covered one of their songs, which was the highlight of the set for me; so when YT recommended this video (shortly before lockdown) I dived right in and still haven't come up for air! I saw them live for the first time last year, and they are even more amazing than in the videos. Enjoy your journey!
Aww I love that!! That’s awesome!
Thank you for commenting 💜
No one's musical journey is ever linear trust the process
Nice and well produced reaction. Thanks!
Thank you, means a lot 💜
This concert is coming up on a ten year anniversary and people are still reacting to this Concert! I saw this band live in LA last May, and it was one of the best
live shows i've ever seen. They won me over . Now I'm a 71 year old fan boy.
Nice :D
Hey there! I'm glad you pointed out the crowd reaction at the end! The deal is that at this point, Floor was still filling in, and that ending stretch - including THAT note - was her personal contribution to the song. So the crowd mostly had never heard the song finished that way, and I'd say they approved. Welcome aboard the Nightwish Army! Rock on! 🤘😎👍
Aww thank you for commenting 💜💜
I think you are the adorable one - so lovely to see your joy, which makes me sort of relive my own joy of listening to this performance for the first time. :)
🥹💜 thank you that’s really sweet
You must see them live in TEMPER performing their masterpeice GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH! You will be speechless after that performance!!!
Greetings from Nightwish Army, Palm Springs, CA, USA!
See below comment from Gabriel Bardac who will provide you with a band bio and list of links to best performances, in the Community tab on his YT channel...ready for more reactions!
7:42 I LOVE that big grin on your face! This, admittedly, is one of the best modern performances of anything, so you're a bit spoiled by this... but symphonic metal is pretty awesome, even if you're not into "heavy metal." Nightwish has many great song, and some of them are very deep emotionally/backstory.
Greetings from Connecticut Becky. Thanks for the great reaction to this epic Nightwish video with The Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen. The joy in your face made my day. Bless you and enjoy your Nightwish journey.
Thank you so much, hope life is treating you well 💜💜
And now we wait for Gabriel...
Whose Gabriel?! I feel a lot of you are summoning him 🤣🤣💜💜
Edit: Oh never mind, he’s arrived 🤣🤣🤣
How great! Hehe thank you 🥰🥰
🤘
@@gabriel.bardac My general, we have a new entry. 🫡
@@millennialmeetsmusic Told you, follow his instructions and you'll be fine. 💪😉
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, this is not what Americans and Brits hear on the radio, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Floor Jansen is not a angel but a Valkyrie, a leather clad Goddess sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin.
Who was he? That was Emppu, he'd just been for a beer.
Amy Lee, as you go down the Nightwish rabbit hole you'll stop making those comparisons
They wasn't goose bumps, they were Floorgasms, and it looks like you had multiple.
I see Gabriel has visited you, allow him to guide you in all things Nightwish..
Follow Gabriels advice.
Ah yeah, Amy Lee is my only comparison so far , it’s the closest thing to go by as I learnt, no meaning to insult 💜💜
Thank you for commenting 💜
❤ Great ❤ This was a very good reaction video. Pure entertainment. Although it seems that this song with all its facets and twists must be the tip of the iceberg - so one of the best songs of Nightwish, this view is far from it. This is "only" the prelude to something much bigger.
I can recommend you to play the songs with subtitles and also give space to the lyrics - they are fantastic and give each song the icing on the cake.
But for now, welcome to the world of Nightwish. I wish you a fantastic journey... 🏆👍
100% agree, thank you 💜💜
Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, excellente réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Faites le festival du Waken 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper. Les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe, vous venez d'écouter la chanson 13 sur les 15. Je crois qu''un peu de Romanticide , qu'il est temps d'une petite histoire comme Storytime ou de commencer plus doucement comme dit Floor avec Ever Dream...... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel devait arriver sous peu, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec un très bon audio. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir. Une dernière chose, lors de votre enregistrement activer les sous-titres, ainsi tout le monde pourra lire vos commentaires dans toutes les langues....... Bonne écoute et un nouvel abonné ici.......
Merci, je travaille définitivement sur l'apprentissage des sous-titres et j'essaie d'être aussi inclusif que possible. J'apprécie votre patience avec moi pendant que j'apprends cela. Merci d'avoir commenté. Je ne parle pas français, j'utilise google translate, mais je voulais être inclusif et je vous apprécie !
Thank you, I am definitely working on learning about subtitles and trying to be as inclusive as possible. I appreciate your patience with me while I learn this. Thank you for commenting. I do not speak french, I am using google translate, but I wanted to be inclusive and I appreciate you!
You have so much more to discover. This is a great performance, but you have the best ones in store. Every new Nightwish song you hear, will be your new favorite. It's a thing for new reactors ;)
I think so! I’m starting to pick up a theme for people suggesting similar songs for new reactors like me 😊. Definitely excited to react to more NW but still looking for balance too 🙂. You never know what I may end up liking, a surprise like this one 😀😀
Thank you "Millennial Meets Music" for the good music from Wacken near Hamburg 2013 with band Nightwish and singer Floor Jansen! One of the bist Metalshows ever in the world! 82.000 metalfans and 2022/23 sold total out. 🤟

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!
Haha thank you! I didn’t expect an army hehe! 💜💜
Yes, your life will never be the same again now you have met Nightwish.
Next band: Epica
I agree! 😀
Oh what a lovely reaction. It hit me like the first ray of sun in the morning. May I suggest headphones, because you will be smiling a lot if you continue this journey, so your ear thingies will keep popping out. Greetings from Maui.
Definitely!! 😀💜
Welcome to the magical world of Nightwish!
Let the journey begin!! Awesome reaction! Cheers from Vancouver Island, Canada.🤘
Hi Becky Great reaction! 👍🤘😁
Thank you!! 😁
