[@michaeldover]

I saw Nightwish for the first time at the end of September in 2012 in Salt Lake City and had Kamelot as their touring partner. I made the drive from the Seattle area to meet my then-girlfriend so that we could attend the show together. TBH, I was more of a Kamelot fan and didn't know too much about Nightwish but had really liked what I had previously heard. Annette was the singer for Nightwish at the Salt Lake City show. The next day I had to drive back to Washington state (where I was based in the Army) and decided to see Nightwish and Kamelot in Seattle two days later. When Nightwish came onstage in Seattle I did a bit of a double take and thought to myself "I do believe this is a different singer than two nights ago." And it was Floor. And it was still a great show. A little later on I had read about what had transpired within the band and their change in vocalists (and had subsequently seen the documentary). I find it quite a big deal (for myself) that, among the fans of the Nightwish Army (not counting tour personnel), that I may be one of a very few, if not the only one, to have seen Annette's last show and Floor's first show only two days later. I will always say that I do love them both!

[@shareine5363]

I saw them at march 2012 in Joensuu. It was 2nd best concert in my life. For me Taikatalvi is very important as Marco's voice is magical. I understand why they don't play it example in US but it have good lyrics and its lovely song :'D I have seen them many times and it made me sad to see them live 2021 without Marco, but I really love Floor too. I have seen her backstage and she is giant woman with giant heart :)

[@ankangas]

I'm Finnish and can't do Estonian, but there are quite a bit of similarities between our languages. So, "Kummitus" is "Ghost" both in Finnish and in Estonian, and I believe "Armastus" is "Love" in Estonian. "Partituur" (Estonian) and "Partituuri" in Finnish means sheet music or "Score". So, there you have it :-) Edit: ...and obviously "Öösoov" means Nightwish. "Yö" is Night in Finnish and "Öö" the same in Estonian. "Soov" is wish or desire etc. in Estonian , whereas in Finnish there's a different word - "Toive" - for it

[@rpgp6065]

Good job! Couldn't have done it better.

[@digitalspecter]

We do have "armas" in Finnish too. Armas = love, dear (noun, adjective, also a male name), it's just an oldish expression. Funny thing is .. if we were to derive a verb from it, it would be armastaa, and a noun derived from that would be armastus.

The band is Finnish. Tuomas is a genius, a metal Mozart. Troy you will see sometimes is British and Floor is Dutch. It brings something new on a next level. Like in the old days when they experimented with Rock. Two songs come to mind. Nina Hagen - Naturträne live and Focus - Hocus Pocus live in the USA at the late show or something.

[@miskatonic6210]

Tuomas is ok, not even close to a genius. It's just not that modern pop shit most people are used to. People need a proper horizon again. 200 years ago, musicians would have wiped the floor with todays musicians. And most musicians from asia wipe the floor with modern western musicians.

I had of course seen the title before I clicked on this video, so probably that helped me with the Estonian title, but as a Dutch speaker, I noticed the last word was very similar to the Dutch word partituur, which would be score in English. I unfortunately haven't seen Nightwish live with Floor yet, but have seen them with Tarja and Annette, and have seen Floor with After Forever, but if things go as planned, the postponed show in Dublin will allow me to finally see them in November. I definitely hope this song will be on the setlist.

[@gracefullynadine864]

I consider myself fortunate that I got to see Floor perform with Nightwish back in October 2012, she had only been with the band for two weeks, replacing the last singer that got kicked out mid tour. The day I got the tickets in the mail was the day the split was announced, but I was so excited to see Floor, since I was familiar with her earlier work in After Forever. Ghost Love Score hadn't been performed live since 2009, but since Floor knew the song they added it back to the set and I got to hear only the fourth time she'd ever done it in front of an audience. Had no idea I was witnessing musical history at the time, I just knew it was incredible. The way she works a crowd is just amazing, I have loved all of the singers of Nightwish but she is by far my favorite (with Marco being a very close second)

[@MikkoRantalainen]

I don't speak Estonian but my mother tongue is Finnish and I'd assume "Öösoov" is literally "night wish" (in Finnish night is written as "yö") and "kummitusarmastuse" is "ghost love" because word "kummitus" in Finnish mean ghost. And the "partituur" is supposed to be score in music, similar to Finnish "partituuri". I think that might be translation error, though. The word "partituuri" in Finnish means the music sheets for an orchestra which I think is called "sheet music" or orchestra arrangement in English. The "score" in GLS has meaning of "musical piece" instead of "sheet music".

[@rpgp6065]

In english it is "musical score". In the narrower sense, music is a detailed writing of the parts of all musical instruments in a musical work on superimposed sheet music. Score is one of the schemes of a musical structure. But eventually, if we could catch Tuomas and ask him, even then I doubt he will tell us the full idea behind that title. 😅

[@MikkoRantalainen]

@@rpgp6065 I have understood that Tuomas doesn't want to explain titles nor the lyrics. He has one idea that he originally thought but his thinking seems to be that there are no wrong interpretations because everybody feels the music a bit different. He didn't even want to explain the repetation marks in the middle of "Human :||: Nature". My guess is that's meant to be read as "human, human nature, nature" but I don't expect to ever hear the official explanation.

[@CCEDE73]

They are all incredibly talented in Nightwish and have been making so much good music for many years.

[@Mischnikvideos]

Fun fact: Estonian and Finnish are closely related. There are various minority languages around Finland. The next related language is Hungarian. Both come from the Urals, are not related to the other languages in Europe and are correspondingly difficult for Europeans to learn. Even after 10 years, Floor only masters the basics. But it is sufficient for the usual interview. She lives in Sweden and her swedish is probably much better because swedish and dutch are related.

[@freyatilly]

Yep. You did your homework. Though I also read that some characteristics of Uralic spread over the Nordic arenas giving a uniqueness to the germanics that also incorporated it into what developed as Russ, along with its variants.

[@TheMarikatt]

Lets not forget that she is MARRIED to the drummer in Sabaton!! It blew my mind. Nightwish is where it all started for me when it comes to metal. Mostly because of the softness of it and musical numbers that are epic and then later I could go on to listen to more heavy stuff. Yeah, Nightwish can be heavy too, but not in that way. I hated Growling as a child, now I can handle it and can listen to other bands. But later on in my teens I were introduced to Sabaton, my bestfriend at the time brought me to their concert in this tiny concert area in 2012 and I have loved them ever since. Then I figured out that Floor and Hannes were married and I just love that crossover. WOULD LOVE for them to actually tour together or something. Sabaton did play WITH Apocalyptica and Amaranthe one time and I just ... wow.

[@rpgp6065]

Hungarian is not exactly "next related" European language. They are most numeorus in this language family. There are Finno-Ugric nations living in European part of Russian Federation whose language is much more closely related to Finnish and Estonian. Saami, Karelians, Veps, Izhorians and Votes living closer, but there are also Mordvian, Mari, Komi, Udmurt, Khanty and Mansi people who speak related languages.

welcome to the fantastic symphonic metal universe of Nightwish Band, their live performances are some of the things that come so close to epic that they get to be mythical and of course Floor Jansen, queen of the stage and goddess of music, she can sing anything in any musical style she wants (WARNING! her voice, her stage presence, her charisma, in one word: her "spell" is highly addictive). this concert (wacken 2013) is incredibly epic and deserves to be watched and reacted entirely, song by song, in particular I suggest these three songs: "song of myself", "storytime" and "ever dream" this performance of "ghost love score" is one of the three best performances of the nightwish band, together with "the poet and the pendulum" from 2015 concert at the london wembley arena and "the greatest show on earth" from 2015 concert in tampere - finland (actually there is a fourth best performance: "dead boy's poem" from the 2018 concert in buenos aires).

Europe is the WEST. The WEST is not just America. Love that your reaction, not too much talking which Americans or Canadians tend to do TOO much of in reactions beyond the required terms of YT. Thank you. : )

Pretty cool that such an old performance is still in high demand. Floor's voice has changed a lot since then. Getting older is such a curse to all singers. But she still sounds pretty good. Thay are a great band.

The song ever dream was what made me fall in love with the band. Amaranth was my ex girlfriend ring tone. End of all hope is also a good one. The genre I haven't seen anyone react to is which house blvck ceiling or clepsydra.
