Rappers React To Nightwish "7 Days To The Wolves"!!!

[@lyricalrocker3410]

This is one of the most under rated Nightwish songs and also one of my favorites so it's awesome that you guys got to react to this tune!

[@frankmerris8821]

i concur. i think its the best beginning of any of their songs

[@tribvne9633]

I agree. Very underrated, as is Pan in my humble opinion.

[@SYNtemp]

In my eyes it is not underrated, it is among the TOP10... it has among other wonderfull lyrics!

[@Klojum]

Rappers: "Which song is perfect for Floor?" NW army: "Yes."

[@adlicious100]

Most Brilliant Performance From The Best Band In The World 🐺🤘💜💥🙏🏼

[@davidphillips4706]

Every song is a masterpiece.

[@annev6895]

Yes, but NW army, you need to give likes to this!!

[@patrickbaris]

Inderdaad de beste band

[@adlicious100]

@@annev6895 😄🤣😂..ask yourself why 😋😅🤣😁

[@rickphil9999]

Yes... they killed it. Floor is such a beast. She commands the crowd like nobody else. This band is incredible. Thank you for this, guys. With Floor, the hair twirls are called the Dutch Windmill (she's Dutch and the Dutch have lots of huge windmills). Loved it.

[@PaulOutdoors]

Ah those trademark Nightwish transitions and multi-layers. At 9:07 Floor commands "Wembley let's go" and GO it did. The best band that I have had the privilege to watch and listen to during my 56 years here on Earth. All band members masters of their craft fronted by the best vocalist that I have ever heard. Thank you gents for a great reaction. Paul 🙏😊👍❤️

[@MorganS89]

Have to do GHOST RIVER. Absolutely worth the 5 min watch

[@michaelbeecher5958]

Floor is the stage General, she controls the crowd, she entertains the crowd. I love this band, no matter how bad the day, put on a NW song and I feel better.....

[@GryLi]

She is a Valkyrie Goddess i love this song with her as the lead

[@amygoodson-catlady]

Never a bad day to listen to Nightwish!

[@davidburkholder4764]

Happy Birthday Floor Jansen. 42 years old today and is still Rocken the World like no other singer.

[@markclements7767]

Greetings from UK Nice to see you guys back reacting to my favourite band 😊 12:04 Now here is a woman who knows that she commands a frickin' army! 😁

[@janihaavisto79]

Oh and yes, since she's a Dutch it's called Windmills. Because Nederlands is full off those mills. Furthermore eventho she's Dutch, she first moved to Finland to be closer to the band and learn the language. Then she met her husband Hannes Van Dahl(Swedish) drummer from Sabaton. And now they live way back in the Swedish forest. Floor loves her peace and quiet after a world tour. And that way Floor and her daughter Freja can enjoy nature, horse riding and other animals that they have there. From outside looking at their family life it's damn near perfect as one could imagine.

[@chriso6719]

Sure, it's perfect for Floor, but it was written when Anette was lead singer. The song title was inspired by the Stephen King book 'Wolves of Calla'. The song itself is telling you to go out and live your life the best you can, as the 'wolves' are only 7 days behind you. Troy is playing his Irish Bouzouki, a relative of the Mandola.

[@michaelneuss7554]

Cheers! Thanks for this info!

[@michelvos3334]

Hey guys! Missed your NW reactions for a while. Good to see you again. Next suggestion: Ayreon-the day that the world brakes down. Dont read up on it, it has 11 of the lead metal vocalists with a surprisr at the end. Enjoy

[@007chinochef]

Hey guys!!! You should realize that every song is different and amazing. Of course I'm in love with Floor, who don't. But also with all the band. They're every single one of them the best in what they do. Good reaction. Greettings from Argentina

[@The_Real_Fomsie]

The Band (during this performance) is: Lead Vocals: Floor Jansen (Yan-sen) Keyboard/Composer: Toumas Holopainen Bass Guitar/Co-Vocals: Marko Hietala Lead Guitar: Emmpu Vourinen Rhythm Guitar/Pipes/Low Whistle/Back up Vocals: Troy Donockley Drums: Kai Hahto

[@kristaspecht]

Morning guys! Man I wanna see night wish in concert soooo bad! Lol. This was a great performance! She has such a great voice and powerful stage presence! 🤘❤️🤓

[@littleraven28]

Great reaction. This is one of my absolute favorite Nightwish songs and it's hard to believe it wasn't written for her. I like to think it was written with her in mind as it has been said that Floor was on the top of both Tuomas' and Marko's wish list ever since they fired Tarja (not certain it is true but it would make sense, as they knew her back then also). There is only one thing that makes this better and that is seeing it live. I saw it live and it is incredible.

[@oldtraveler6966]

This is a song about life. The "wolfs" are only 7 days away. Stop living and they are catching up with You. Live every day as it will be your last one, do not wait to next week, start living... You do not know nothing about tomorrow.

[@marcell6915]

I love this song, so glad the performed this in Amsterdam. It is based on the book Wolves of the Calla from Stephen King the Dark Tower serie. You should check out The Pantom live in Amsterdam with Henk Poort, also a awesome perfomance.

[@skeezesmith7954]

Another interesting show. Floor's been windmilling for over 2 decades. If you check her style, she's doing it safely. Knees bent, hands on hips and a nice line. Also, have to give props to Tuomas for his windmills and not missing a note. FYI, Drove my Chevy to the levee.... Song is American Pie by Don McLean in 1971. 😊🤘

[@michaelneuss7554]

Gentlemen, fan of you both from Australia. You guys never fail to bring the noise.

[@codydrummer]

Tomas Haake is the drummer for Meshuggah. Tuomas Halopainen (sp?) Is the keyboard player for Nightwish

[@damienmaynard8892]

Stephen King, The Dark Tower V - "The Wolves of Calla" - source of part of the idea behind this song. From the Album "Dark Passion Play" when Tuomas was coming out of a dark place...... Floor's face at 12:06 (your video) - Reaper? (from the Blade movies) Do not mess with the Goddess! ;)

[@metalzonereactions]

Nightwish does have a song called "FantasMic" :) check out one of the live versions from back in the day

[@pascalnast9703]

Empuu playes his signature EV-1 wich is based off of the ESP Horizon And Marco playes his Warwick Vampyre 4 string bass.

[@jamesnelson1968]

I Want My Tears Back from Buenos Aires, Floor dances the length of the stage.

[@mikethemotormouth]

7:02 "Tomas Haake"? I think that's what you said. Didn't come through as clear as possible. Tomas Haake is the drummer for Meshuggah

[@mattboselli1099]

Great reaction. Keep on

[@hamohamo8270]

I know a lot of great, famous and obscure talented singers with a huge range, but I have not seen anyone have so much singing abilities as Floor Jansen.Floor can sing whatever she wants, any genre and style she wants, for me she is the best in singing, and not only for me, Floor is considered the best singer on the planet, this is written by many people in the comments, from all the countries. Floor conveys incredible emotions, and can sing incredibly dynamically conveying incredible energy, can incredibly powerful, variously distort the voice in singing. Floor can in one breath ride through several registers. Floor made a glissando, where in one breath she rose from the low register to the 6th register in D6, F6 notes in different concerts and it sounded powerful, perfect. Floor sang operatic songs, with a full operatic voice. Floor also holds a D6 note for 12 seconds perfectly.Floor can hold a note for 18 seconds after singing 14 songs, among these 14 songs there are songs that last more than 10 minutes, and this long note sounds great with great balance, there are concerts where she adds a lot of vibrato to this long note. Floor can sing as fast as rappers and at the same time without losing the melodiousness in every word, she also rap in German while singing, can at concerts almost on one breath go from full death metal growl in large-scale, powerful operatic singing. Floor can sing in any language she wants, she sang in many languages with excellent pronunciation. Floor's chest voice is incredibly powerful, she can smoothly, imperceptibly move from her chest voice to her head voice and vice versa, mix them up, she can also mix whatever genres and styles she wants, Floor has incredible artistry, incredible graceful movements, an incredible amount colors in Floor voice, huge range in Floor voice, incredible flexibility and dexterity in Floor voice, in general, her abilities are endless, they have no boundaries, and it is impossible to write about all of them.

[@ilkkak3065]

And all that in 9 different languages.

[@Benobot99]

7:00 Nope, haha. Tomas Haake is the drummer of Meshuggah. That's Marco Hietala. You're thinking of Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist/composer of Nightwish.

[@gennyreese420]

So…we have Queen vs King, almost impossible to decide! They both give you exactly what you need, it just depends on what you need in any given moment. I literally can’t choose..I keep envisioning them watching each other, I can totally see Floor melting at a Led Zeppelin concert, and I can see Robert Plant in awe at a Nightwish show as she casts her spell on her army…This is a tough one. It’ll be interesting to see! 💕🤘🏼💚✨I think they would vote for each other✌💚😎

[@orangeguppie6897]

Thanks, one of my absolute favourites

Where you guys been? Missed ya!!!

I love an acoustic expression and the way they play together 🙂

I feel like Annette needs more love. Especially when we are speaking of songs from her Era of Nightwish ! Floor is amazing still but I miss Annette too. (Unpopular opinion haha)

[@jzundert]

why unpopular it,s not mine but your honest opinion lol

[@DJPsykoHM]

@@jzundert She had lots of haters after replacing Tarja. I know many people of didn't like her style.

[@jzundert]

@@DJPsykoHM i saw all 3 tarja---anette and floor floor is the best for me i don,t like tarja,s singing but is still good and it,s pitty anette can not sing everything floor can sing all nightwish songs anette is very good in her own way but i love all 3

[@ascensionenergetics85]

It’s not that unpopular. There’s 1 other person who feels this way too. It’s not me tho.

[@chrissturkenboom6080]

No, Annette was good too. My favorite song is Meadows from Heavens. Tuomas wrote/composed/produced songs with the members at the time.

[@zbygniewprlwytzkofsky6614]

Speaking of wolves not entirely the same, but you all should react to Type O Negative-Wolf Moon. You won't be disappointed.

Floor has the best windmill in metal 🤘🏼

[@Thorgrim247]

The title is base on a Steven King Novel. Carpe diem! The wolves and the poison are metaphors for death. It is never far behind us on the journey of life. Live every day to its fullest. This is one of Floor's most powerful performances vocally. The windmill is just another way to headbang and get into the music.

[@Ireksojkowski]

Hi great response nice

Great news, brothers. Today I celebrate 22 months clean and sober. YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! Her last name is pronounced like the J sounds like a Y.

[@BrendonChase_2015]

No competition w Floor involved. She's a beast & has a better body (of work) than Robert Plant or any other vocalist in the business 😁 "7 Days" also happens to be my fav. NW song. The rewatch value of this particular Wembley Arena version is off the charts. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘

[@noneofyerbeeswax8194]

Robert Plant is quite a flamboyant guy and a 01001100 01010101 01001100 overall. Floor definitely has a better body... of work. Which is very evident on "Remagine."😁 Might be my favourite too.

[@jasonmarshall7572]

First time i'd seen a head twirl was from a band called W.A.S.P. the lead singer name Blackie Lawless so we called it the Blackie Lawless. Years later Floor Jansen does it and because she's Dutch and they have windmills we can it the Windmill . And one else that does this are called Fans lol. I loved Robert plant from way back in the Yard birds then Led Zeppelin before his solo music But Floor's power, stage pressence and control over the crowds and her versatility the ability to pretty much do Any Genre makes her a supperior candidate and better the Rebert plant.

[@silverblack5475]

Plant is clearly ahead but not by all that much. The shere number of absolute monster bangers Floor and Nightwish is just unbelievable... its like 8 out of 10 sond are songs you will rememberfor the rest of your life and te lasy two are still fantastic songs. And the way she delivers them, Im sorry, no one can compete with that. Floor will pass Plant sooner or later... But as of today, I feel like he is still a little bit ahead.
