FIRST TIME LISTENING TO NIGHTWISH - GHOST LOVE SCORE LIVE - REACTION

[@gabriel_bardac]

Hello Tequila Jimmy & The Gringa [ @TJandTheGringa ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 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. Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] 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 [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] 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 [pronounced Tarr-ya] (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 " For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community

Thank you Gabriël! Great to see you respond

[@TJandTheGringa]

Thank you Gabriel!. We have been eagerly awaiting your arrival as we were told. This is a wonderful and very informative summary of the band history. I have bookmarked your link so we can dive into the catalog of your recommendations. We are very fortunate to have you guys to help us dive into and explore new music that deserves a lot more recognition than it gets. Thanks again for all the insight!

[@gabriel.bardac]

@@TJandTheGringa Thank you for an enthusiastic response! Sorry for the few hours of delay, I just now found a few free minutes, towards the end of my work schedule. I hope that what you saw and heard convinced you to continue exploring this true ocean of good music, created and performed by Nightwish for more than a quarter of a century of activity. 🤘

[@mvellis3863]

Great reaction!! Nightwish is a very deep rabbit hole, where every song is different with unexpected twists and turns. Virtuoso musicians, a genius songwriter (Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player whom many call the "metal Mozart" is a master of emotion and melody), and the best lead singer alive today (Floor Jansen can sing anything, from operatic highs to full metal growls) - and bassist Marco Hietala is a metal legend and also has a tremendous voice (his harmonies with Floor are pure gold). Nightwish is one of the best live bands of all time. To get a sample of their diversity I highly recommend any of these live performances (with Floor), which are some of my personal favorites: (From Wacken 2013): Romanticide, Storytime, Ghost River, Amaranth, Song Of Myself, Last Ride Of The Day, Ever Dream; (From Wembley 2015): 7 Days To The Wolves, Yours Is An Empty Hope, Nemo, Elan, My Walden, While Your Lips Are Still Red, Shudder Before The Beautiful, The Poet And The Pendulum; (From Tampere 2015): Sleeping Sun, The Islander; (From Buenos Aires 2018): I Want My Tears Back, Dead Boys Poem, Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean; (From Tampa): Sahara; (From Hellfest 2022): Tribal, How's The Heart.

I first heard of Nightwish last summer when i heard a reaction to this song , next day i bought the CD of this concert Showtime Storytime . This is the 13th song of a 15 song set , hence the small breaks , the stamina is amazing and shout out to the drummer . The whole concert is superb but apart from this track my other favs are Storytime and Ever Dream . go down the rabbit hole of this band

[@louisminten7889]

Welcome to the magical world of nightwish best live band on the planet imho

[@macman1615]

Hi Nightwish Army UK here, you have just landed into one of the most amazing live bands ever, Floor, the lead singer can sing anything, rock, metal, growls ( oh yes she can growl ), operatic and pop, nothing phases her. Please keep enjoying and reacting as the NW Army will now flood your comments section and channel. BTW, every song is different to the last one, but is one hell of a rollercoaster of a ride, enjoy and we’ll keep watching, take care 🤘

[@cipondiss7195]

Great reaction! I couldn't agree more. It's criminal that bands like Nightwish aren't more known and on the radio here in the U.S. If you want more, I'd recommend experiencing this concert fully. You should start from Dark Chest of Wonders and take it from there. Wacken 2013 is an absolute gem. It's probably the best live show anyone will experience in our lifetime.

[@TimoArula]

Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! 6'1'' Dutch Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! This is called Symphonic Metal !!! 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, 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 (one of the largest heavy metal festivals in the world and one of the largest open-air festivals in Germany). The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival. We hope, that there is more coming. NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.

[@reddiamondstone]

I am pleased to welcome you to the wonderful world of Nightwish from the UK Oldies Division (East Anglian branch) of Nightwish Army. As you delve deeper into their music (as I hope you will) you will find many diverse songs. Symphonic metal is the official genre, but you will find songs ranging from metal to ballads and even a jazz track. I have subscribed to your channel in the hope that you'll keep on watching and listening to Nightwish, especially their live recordings. I saw them live at Wembley in November 2022 and it was the most amazing unforgettable experience. To hear more from them, I suggest you follow Gabriel's list or pick and mix from it. I have followed Nightwish for some time now and all the compositions and musicianship never fail to please. Looking forward to your next reaction.

I grew up listening to Nightwish, it is a band that was a pioneer in its genre and some songs are works of art, unfortunately today their work does not excite me as much as before, but I know that they are capable of much more and that is why I continue to support them.

[@jompuusi]

Greetings from Finland 🤩

[@garyrobb5341]

Great reaction you two! Here’s some stuff I read. Floor is a cancer survivor. She was seven months pregnant and showing during one concert. (Imagine what her daughter will be like.) She was backstage at a concert and saw Hannes Van Dahl of Sabaton drinking whiskey and asked for some. Then she asked if he would share a cigar. He’s thinking “A rock goddess who likes whiskey and cigars? I have to marry her.” And they did it! Got married I mean. What else they did that night is generally unknown. 😊

[@CosMosArtistry2016]

New subscriber here, Nightwish isn't a band, it is an experience. You cannot go back now, prepare to be drawn into the rabbit hole. I'm 67 and I never heard of Nightwish until a couple of years ago. I grew up with Queen and Pink Floyd and all those great bands, Nightwish brought great music back to me. Cheers, Rich (Kiwi living in Australia).

[@troygerencer1620]

You sound like me brother , being in my 50's and stuck with my old music from back in the day as anything on offer from the past couple decades is nothing but plastic music Junk , , , Until Nightwish Arrived in our worlds , the Army came calling ! now a game changer and reviving ones faith in the music industry to produce something of stellar quality . They became my favourite version of Metal and favourite Band from the very first night I was lucky enough to come across them on Y T . After watching this song 3 times over ! Then chasing down their other songs for half the night 😁. Because of Nightwish you naturally progress to find other great European talent such as Ayreon , Sabaton , Jinjer to Blind Guardian and the like , that you might otherwise have missed . Welcome into the Australian devision 👍😁🇦🇺

[@CosMosArtistry2016]

@@troygerencer1620 I have watched Nightwish thousands of times now, mostly through KZbin reactors, I love to see their faces when they discover Nightwish. The other band I love is The Warning, having discovered them a couple of years ago also. Their growth since they were children to full on rock stars is amazing and inspiring to see.

I remember discovering Nightwish back in 2000 when I was 14. Makes me really happy they're still going strong after so long and new people get to listen to them.

[@billmorrison8292]

Every song at the Wacken (Vahkan) Festival was a banger and the 82,000 crowd was amazing. Check out Romanticide next (for 2nd singer and shred) then Storytime, Song Of Myself and Ever Dream all from the same Festival. You will find no 2 songs the same.

[@jeffreycook2112]

Nightwish Army Cleveland, Ohio Chapter reporting. I have been trying to spread the word of Nightwish for over 20 years now. Most people just don’t get it. But for some people, they are the most amazing band they have never heard of. Their sound is too complex and eclectic for most popular music tastes, and unfortunately will probably never be played on the radio. But you have found them. And Goddess Floor has 2 more subjects. You will definitely want to take a deep dive into this band. They have many songs to choose from, and a new album coming in September. They released the first single from it a few weeks ago called Perfume Of The Timeless. Enjoy your Nightwish journey.

I love your enthusiastic reaction; you have a new subscriber. You have just discovered one of the greatest live bands on this planet. Every member of the band is an outstanding artist, and they all play for the music instead of showing off. No egos on stage. And they all love what they are doing - and each other. If you want to hear more Nightwish follow Gabriel's list, with this you cannot go wrong. One of my favourite songs from this concert is Romanticide - it is much harder than Ghost Love Score. But all songs of this concert are worth listening to, there is no bad one.

I was there, this was a truely epic night. One of the best concerts I have ever seen and I have seen a lot in my life.

[@roadwarrior2348]

HAHA....!! Love the reaction folks. I love to watch these reactions when the reactors are stricken in the emotions. I feel the same way. At the begining Jimmi mentioned Led Zeppelin, I happened to see them 2x in 1969 Canada ( I love saying that ) and it was a big wake up for me, It was an amazing experience along with learning of Hendrix and Deep Purple at the time.. As a result of those shows, I HAD to learn to play guitar and I did (sort of ). Played in a few bands over the years but being in North America, it was usually blues and classic rock. In 2018, I was YouTubing it for music videos and this Nightwish,...Wacken 2013 popped up and I watched the whole concert....It was another wake up for me. but diffferent. I wondered how I had never heard of music like this, It woke me up to something different and now I listen to a wider genre of music styles. I have since discovered many new bands, usually from Europe... Nightwish, Within Temptation, Tristania, Sirenia, Elis... and more. I can't say that I like the direction Nightwish has taken lately and thats their creative perogative to do so, but It's because of them I've discovered other really great music.... Take care.....

I have a deep sympathy for people who understand music well enough to intuitively realize that beyond the drum transition at 12:55 or so you do not pause anymore. The tension build up that comes after that point, followed by the incredible climax, is something to be enjoyed without interruptions. Especially the first time it is vital to take it in in one bite. And I will never stop enjoying to see people being completely mesmerized by and in absolute awe of her voice. And with reason. Floor Jansen is among the best singers of our time.

Great reaction and commentary to my all-time favorite singer and band and I’m older than dirt. (Helpful tip: backup a few seconds free a pause to maintain flow) Floor sings every genre with a powerful and pitch perfect voice. All Nightwish songs are unique and excellent. Tuomas (keyboards, founder, composer), AKA Metal Mozart does not create filler songs. His songs and Floor’s voice guarantee goosebumps galore. This phenomenon is known as a “Floorgasm”. Gabriel should leave a comment that includes a list with links so you can always get to the correct version of a song. Floor is the 3rd Nightwish lead singer, but the other two don’t give me any “gasms”. 😜 Nightwish is huge in Europe and South America, but not the US because of the workings of the American Music industry. The logical progression from here is “Storytime” from the same live venue at Wacken Germany, which is pronounced Vacken. 😄🤘 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqfOiqqFf7-ChLc

Greetings from NW lonely outpost on Maui. They helped me mighty get over the pandemic. I have watched enough reactions to this song for you to declare me insane, yet it has kept me sane though all this time. ❤

I've often said that Floor's voice touches your soul, I could see Gringa touching her core ...She tickled your soul and that is when you know that you are hooked.

Nightwish army NY here, welcome 👋 this was song 13 of the set as well. I think its time for a little story, try "Storytime" from this same geeat show.

Yes, please welcome our Valkyrie Goddess, Floor Jansen! 🤘🏻 Can't wait for more reactions to Nightwish & our Goddess, please!

[@jimharris367]

Thankyou for reacting to this most incredible band. Im an old school Metalhead, Motorhead, Saxon, Priest, Anthrax, that sort of thing is my musical heartland and i always thought Symphonic Metal wasn't for me, that it would be far too pretentious. Then, on the insistence of a friend who saw them headline the Bloodstock Festival, i checked this very song and performance. Within a month i owned everything they'd released and have been in love with them ever since. Go down the rabbit hole, you won't regret it 🤘

I’ve been so stoked waiting for you to discover Nightwish and you did not disappoint. The most common word that first time reactors use is “epic!” 🤟👍🇨🇦 Many will give you their favourite songs, or pieces of music by them (calling some of them songs is highly inadequate in my opinion), but one of my favourites is “Song Of Myself.” Gabriel will show up though and give you great advice! 😊 Can’t wait to watch your Nightwish journey. I’ll be here for every video. One last note. Most bands would end their show with a song like this, but not Nightwish!

[@maximgoncharov9963]

Welcome to the rabbit hole!! You're going to have an incredible journey through NW music and you'll never regret a moment of it!

My first Floorgasm was to this song years ago.

[@davidlagassee8236]

welcome to the NW army. you are in for myriad treats.

[@Asa-Maria]

Boom! 💥💯This hits like an emotional rollercoaster. Nightwish music is the best medicine ever. I am gladly joining you for a hopefully long journey with Nightwish. There is so much more ... You have no idea 👌😉Greetings from Finland 😊

[@JanuzTrance68]

The great thing about Floor Jansen is that she is such a great singing storyteller. Feeling exactly what the song needs to bring the message to the crowd, clearly pronouncing the lyrics to let the crowd sing along with her.

[@michellesharp3369]

Have followed this band for 20yrs and have had the privilege to see them live twice....and yes! they are that amazing live. If you want to go on the NW journey....we will follow along. Greetings from Scotland.

Hello from 🪖Nightwish Army- Canada! So happy you chose to react to my fav group. Daily I watch for reaction to this group so I can enjoy their music with others! So many songs with different flavors, this concert is on KZbin and other concerts too! I would love to follow you on your journey with Nightwish so I subscribed! Watching for your next one!

[@pdutchie4924]

Happy you met our Dutch Valkyrie Metal Goddess Floor and Nightwish. Please do more, it’s all this good❣️

[@johanhartjes]

Really enjoyed this reaction. 🤘🙏🤟 This entire concert is 🔥 Subbed for more from Nightwish who are my 2nd favorite band just a little behind The Warning. 😉 Grtz from The Netherlands

[@TJandTheGringa]

Stay tuned as we're doing a bunch more of both bands and thank you so much!!

[@dolfvink7416]

Lovely reaction. I'm an older man and seen then 3 times now. The first time was with their second vocalist, the 2 others with Floor. It sounds weird, but what ever it is a more metal song or a more ballad, the last song you heard from them will be your favorite, no matter in what order you listen them. All their songs are unique in their own way, but always with a Nightwish signature. That signature can also be heard in their covers (eg. Over the Hills and far away (with first singer Tarja Turunen) and High Hopes with bassplayer Marko Hietela on vocals) Thanks to the exellent musicians and keyboardist and composer Tuomas Holopainen. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@maksphoto78]

I love how your lady is totally in love with Floor. I'm originally from Estonia, next door to Finland. Yes, medieval is in our blood.

[@greggygolf]

We never hear this music in Australia either. Music directors and programmers with blinkers, and music that has to fit into a sterotypical mould (catchy 3-4 minute hit). Thanks for your enthusiastic reaction! Love to see you do more Nightwish. Greetings from Melbourne Australia.

[@Riikka-rn3pn9no9n]

Greetings from Finland. 😊 One Nightwish fan here too. I hope that you continue this journey, this band has been active about 30yr so there is coulpe of song's to hear. ❤
