Hello @ De Gem ! Nightwish fans here, your reaction just appeared on our radar.. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing in 2013 at Wacken Open Air festival, in front of a 82k+ audience. About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners. As I saw, you appreciate all the key elements of a Nightwish show: the timeless composition, the high level of musicianship of all the bend members, the heavenly voice of our Dutch metal queen, Floor Jansen, Welcome among us! Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory): " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her. There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps. I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol " Hope you'll continue this journey with us, so I'll drop here a list of songs with the current lineup of the band you may like: "Romanticide" live at Wacken 2013 (metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKvCaIJ5eLafjtU "Storytime" live at Wacken 2013 (uplifting vocals) kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqfOiqqFf7-ChLc "Ever Dream" live at Wacken 2013 (uplifting vocals) kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4nMZaFuma-WfJo "Song Of Myself" live at Wacken 2013 (dark/metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooLYZoSgnsl7jck "Dead Boy's Poem" - live Buenos Aires 2018 (soulful ballad) kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWmoZH9tnMx_g68 "Ghost River" live at Wacken 2013 (metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmbImqeaYqp0bKs "My Walden" live at Wembley 2015 (celtic / folk) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZ_UlnxuZZyNors "Sleeping Sun" live at Tampere 2015 (ballad) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKTSpZ-wp56qhNk "Stargazer" live at Tampere 2015 (operatic vocals / metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJmopnSGjtKSi8k "Slaying The Dreamer" live at Buenos Aires 2018 (metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXKXZaeglrVopJI "I Want My Tears Back" live at Buenos Aires 2018 (celtic / folk vibe) kzbin.info/www/bejne/inOylZqun8djoa8 "Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean" live In Buenos Aires 2018 (metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmOZo5Ksdr6EZrM "Weak Fantasy" live at Tampere 2015 (dark metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3-VZGyGl9aVoNE "7 Days To The Wolves" live at Wembley 2015 (dark metal) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqfWl6p3hceKjsU And if you want to hear Floor growling :) then try "Yours Is An Empty Hope" live at Wembley 2015 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKqvpIhthphmac0 Last but not the least - they just released their 9th studio album on April 10th named "Human :||: Nature" - just take a peek to their official playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLihZ3gi5Yvzc0pfH2cbNKUUX8o3pb8eVg You can also continue to react to Floor Jansen "tapping" other musical genres in Beste Zangers 2019 (TV show from Netherlands) here is a playlist made by Floor herself ( start listen it in reverse order..): kzbin.info/aero/PL8iSYWeQhlimgUnWw1FDdiJN0msPzqpLo To understand better the context of this show you should visit also Jenniezelf's YT channel (En subtitled materials): kzbin.info For entire episodes of the show with En translation, you should check Denise Hofs's DM channel: www.dailymotion.com/xpinkeu/videos Thank you!

I've heard her sing in English, Dutch, German, Finnish, Spanish, Italian and Latin. I've heard her do deathgrowls and hold a D6 for 8 seconds. And I've heard her do all those things live on stage. Sure, there are singers who can do any of the things she does better than her, but there's only one who can do all of them and sound great and convincing doing it all.

Nightwish is a symphonic metal band from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, keys, band founder in 1996, leader, mastermind, composes, writes lyrics to and arranges vast majority of Nightwish songs. Marko Hietala bass and vocals Emppu Vuorinen guitar Jukka Nevalainen drums, replaced in 2015 by his good friend Kai Hahto due to Jukka's insomnia. Troy Donockley the multi-instrumentalist from the UK, not present on this performance. And last but not least, Floor Jansen vocals, from the Netherlands. She is the 3rd and current female lead vocalist of Nightwish from 2012 on. Original female lead vocalist was Tarja Turunen 1996-2005, 2nd was Anette Olzon from Sweden 2007-2012. I wish you keep on reacting to more Nightwish. I suggest "Ever Dream" Wacken 2013 Official Live so that you hear Marko and Floor on vocals together. They complement each other amazingly.

Nightwish is a Finnish band and here are the members currently: - Tuomas Holopainen - Keyboards & main composer/arranger - Finnish - Floor Jansen - Main Vocals - Dutch - Marco Hietala - Bass & Vocals - Finnish - Emppu Vuorinen - Guitarist - Finnish - Kai Hahto - Drums - Finnish (In the video you just watched it was still Jukka Nevalainen, he left as the drummer in 2014 and is now with the band's management team) - Troy Donockley - Uilleann pipes, tin whistle, vocals, guitar, keyboards, bouzouki, etc. - English The backing tracks are recorded with the London Philarmonic full orchestra and choir. They had 2 previous singers Tarja Turunen 1996-2005 and Anette Olzon 2007-2012. Best method for reacting to Nightwish that I figured from watching reactors and discovering them recently and exploring their catalog myself: Keep the particularly long and complex songs listed below, if you have not watched them already, for after you have seen all the more standard ones from the 4 live shows mentioned in the numbered list: - Ghost Love Score (Wacken) 10 minutes - The Poet and the Pendulum (Wembley) 14 minutes >>> Doing some research on the background story for this song is very important to be able to appreciate the meaning of the lyrics. - Greatest Show on Earth (Tampere) 21 minutes 1- Just do all the Wacken 2013 songs, they are all great. 2- Then the Wembley 2015 ones that are not part of the Wacken show. 3- Then the remaining songs from Tampere 2015 that were not in the previous 2 shows mentioned. 4- Then the older songs from Buenos Aires 2018 that were not in the previous 3 shows mentioned. 5- To see what they can do with a cover and if you like Marco's singing, watch their interpretation of Pink Floyd's High Hopes. 6- Then you can explore Floor's versatility with her band ReVamp's live performances of the songs Disdain at Graspop and Wild Card at Bloodstock. 7- And finally go in the deep end of the Floor talent pool by reacting to her performances on Beste Zangers in the order the episodes aired. For the first 4 steps, you can alternate between shows, but I would recommend to still only take songs that are not performed in the previous shows mentioned, as they are ordered in audio quality from best to worst. From watching a lot of reactions, in my opinion this is the most efficient order to discover the rabbit hole that is Nightwish and Floor Jansen. That should keep you busy for a while. 😀

Girl, you aint' seen anything yet. This is my favorite Nightwish song. Nothing is random in what you hear, everything is perfectly calculated and thought trough down to the last note of every musical organ you can and can't distinguish. Holopainen (the keyboardist ) is a musical genius, add the talent of the other members, and you get an unforgettable musical experience out of this world. The Dutch Goddess (Floor Jansen) is their 3rd singer, and in my opinion the most versatile and "right" for the band. I hope to see them just once in my lifetime. If you haven't already, also check the song "The Greatest Show On Earth"

Name:Floor Jansen(ex-After Forever,Re-Vamp,now on Nightwish) Country:Netherlands Vocal Type:Dramatic Coloratura Soprano Range:5 octaves(D3-D6) Coloratura Sopranos are rare, but her range of 5 octaves puts her into a being in the top 20 of all female vocalists. Maybe even #1. She stands 6' even barefoot, 6 '5" to 6' 6" onstage with her heels & boots. She is Dutch, and she is the Goddess Valkyrie of Metal. Only the first vocalist from Nightwish, Tarja Turunen, a 3 octave (C3 - G♯6) Coloratura Soprano, comes remotely close. Pop divas run in fear when Floor steps to the mic!

Floor is an angel. I call her the 6 foot 1, Dutch Goddess of all things vocal. 😊 Her versatility is absolutely impressive and range? She has hit a D6 which is much higher than this and actually held it for 8 seconds. She has also been heard sliding a note UP 3 octaves. The first song in question is her duet in "Phantom of the Opera" with Henk Poort in the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers in 2019. The second song in question is my recommendation for your next reaction... "Romanticide" live from Wacken 2013 as will be many more songs from this venue. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘

Welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and in particular, Nightwish and Floor Jansen, shortly before she became an official member of the band. Yes, you read that right - she got the call at her sister's wedding in The Netherlands on Saturday 29th Sept 2012 after the band had an irreparable falling out with their previous female lead vocalist mid-tour, and 48 hours later, having learned the entire setlist, was making her debut with them in Seattle WA on 1st October. This song wasn't even in the setlist at the time, but within 10 days she had dug it out of their back catalogue, re-written the ending, and persuaded them to add it. The first time she sang it publicly was on 10th October in Austin TX. This is almost at the end of the tour on August 3rd 2013, with only two more festivals to go. Floor graduated from a 3-year degree at the Rock Academy in the Netherlands (which she attended while also singing for After Forever) before doing more studies in musical theatre and opera. After the breakup of After Forever, she formed her own band, ReVamp, but this (luckily for Nightwish) was on hiatus following her burnout about a year before her call from the band and although they had been writing and recording new material, they had no immediate contractual obligations, so she was free to answer the call. ReVamp's 2nd and final album, Wild Card, was released 20 days after this concert, and shortly afterwards, on 9th October, Floor was announced as Nightwish's permanent female lead vocalist. Apparently the offer had been extended and accepted in the hotel bar after the Sauna Open Air festival in Tampere Finland on June 8th but remained a band secret until after the tour, and I suspect, the fulfilment of a contractual commitment to the release of ReVamp's album. Her voice extends from alto up through the entire range of her natural soprano, and does so seamlessly, as her chest, middle and head ranges overlap so that she can transition between them where it suits the music instead of where she has to. This song barely scratches the surface of her vocal ability. Most people sing what they can - Floor sings whatever she wants to, and can sing anything except badly!

The 'Lucy Lawless/Xena" there is the Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen, the best singer in the world. The "Wizard" is the bassist Marko Hietala, who is also a very good singer. The drummer is "the Pirate" Jukka Nevalainen and the guitarist is "the Hobbit" Emppu Vuorinen. The mastermind behind all of this greatness is the keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen, whose "organ thing" there is only an impressive keyboard stand. Thank you and greetings from Finland!

The best part of reaction videos is the reaction and yours is genuine and that makes for a great video. Floor is unmatched vocally and if she was a Pop singer she'd be bigger than Taylor Swift. Glad I found your channel and look forward to more reaction videos. And remember... Metal music is good for the soul. \m/

Fun fact: Nightwish fire their second singer Anette in the middle of an ongoing world tour and have to give the next concert two days later. Floor got burned out during the South American tour of her band ReVamp and had to take a break. Nightwish called her if she could fill in in 48 hours. Had she asked a doctor, she should have refused. But Floor was and is one of the biggest Nightwish fans, already knew a few songs and couldn't say no. It quickly becomes clear that she is indispensable and after the tour is over she will also become an official member. She released another album with ReVamp, but instead of going on tour she disband the band.

Fun Fact: Floor is the Dutch form of the Roman goddess Flora, the goddess of flowers and plants. So no Valkyrie who brings dead heroes from the battlefield to Valhalla paradise or Xena. Even if the costume looks great on her ;-)

welcome to the fantastic musical universe of nightwish and floor jansen, queen of the stage and goddess of music. from the same concert, wacken 2013, i suggest you to react to these songs: "song of myself", "storytime" and "ever dream".

I am English and from England and I know Medieval history, I also heard Medieval music and I can tell you that the start of Nightwish's Ghost Love Score is NOT medieval at all. Why Floor Jansen's voice sounds incredible live is because she is the greatest female singer on the planet FACT. Flood Jansen is married to Sabaton's drummer Hannes van Dahl, lucky geezer I and many male Nightwish/Sabaton fans love her and her Angelic voice. She is our dream girl. I am a Sabaton Fan but I have to admit that Nightwish is my second favourite band. Floor Jansen has been back up vocals for a couple of Sabaton songs including the latest one, which is the true story of the Christmas Truce which happened on Christmas day 1914 ( for Americans it is WW1). When British soldiers including our own Hertfordshire Regiment and the German soldiers, walked onto No Man's land to talk, smoke, exchange gifts, drink and play Football ( proper football not the game you play that has nothing to do with playing the game with only feet). Floor Jansen sings with the end credits. British Sabaton Fan 💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🏴🇸🇪🇸🇪🇫🇮🇫🇮🇱🇺🇱🇺

MY recommendations for your NEXT Nightwish vids are as follows: 1) Song of Myself (Wacken 2013), 2) Storytime (Wacken 2013), 3) Romanticide (Wacken 2913), 4) Shudder Before The Beautiful (Wembley 2015), 5) Ghost River (Wacken 2013) 6) Ever Dream (Wacken 2013). TAKE YOUR TIME BEFORE getting to "The Poet and The Pendulum" (Wembley 2015) and "The Greatest Show on Earth" (Tampere 2015).

Thanks for the great reaction. It's funny that you kept asking "What else can she do?" Even though she is singing in such a wide range of styles and vocal qualities in this song, you have not even begun to hear the range of things she can do, and the same for the rest of the band. OK, so you have had your first Floorgasm. What's next? Well, here are some recommendations for your next steps: Want to hear a some that is a little more hard driving metal? Listen to Romanticide from the same live show: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKvCaIJ5eLafjtU Want to hear Floor growl for you? Try Yours is an Empty Hope: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqW7ooiEd52tqLc Want to hear something that is a little more upbeat and fun? Try either Storytime: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2ayladrotB0gpI or Ever Dream: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4nMZaFuma-WfJo or Last Ride of the Day: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6usfqttedaUla8 Once you cut your teeth on those I recommend that you either explore the sound of the band back when they had their original vocalist (who was fantastic too, but with a more operatic kind of voice) or move on to their more heavy more intellectual and more multi-part songs like The Poet and The Pendulum or The Greatest Show on Earth. But you aren't ready for those just yet. Enjoy the ride Gem!
