Viking Dude sings as well. Nightwish doesn't have a bad song. Just pick any song from October 2012 on and buckle up. If you want to hear what Viking Dude (Marko) can do singing with Floor, check out Romanticide from the same concert: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKvCaIJ5eLafjtU The thing is with this band, there are no inflated egos. Floor will sing backing for Marko, Emppu the guitarist will sit back and let Troy wail away. Tuomas the composer on the keys will sit back and play under all of the other instruments an entire song. Such a refreshing change form the usual ego fueled drama queens.

[@oolillemyoo4099]

Yaaasss, do Romanticide (also from Wacken)! This is probably their most “poppy” song - Romanticide is heavier, and you also get to hear Marco (the bassist) sing :D PS: The backing vocals you heard here (and in other songs), are prerecorded by a professional choir. Dragging a giant choir on a world tour would be a logistical nightmare and cost $$$$ :)

[@rafamacondo8287]

Firts Song: "The viking guy" .... Third song: Ohhhhh , Markoooo !!!

[@palantir135]

The first singer Tarja, was great but always sang in operatic style. The second singer Anette, was a great singer but her voice was thinner and more pop orientated. Floor Jansen can sing everything she wants in every style she wants. She even growls. Future reactions on Nightwish...just pick songs from one of the live concerts at Wacken, Wembley and Tampere.

[@jayway458]

Here are a few of the more common songs that are reacted to: Ghost Love Score (Wacken 2013) Song of Myself (Wacken 2013. Marco, the bassist, sings harmony with Floor) Poet and the Pendulum (Wembley Stadium 2016. Do some research on the back story of the song before listening. this song is super emotional.) Greatest Show on Earth (Tampere) Romanticide (Wacken 2013. Marco has vocals on this song. He is an amazing singer also) The Islander (Tampere. Marco is the lead singer on this song) Phantom of the Opera (From End of an Era. This features the bands first singer but it is an amazing performance) Yours is an Empty Hope (Wembley)

[@galadballcrusher8182]

Someone once commented that Tarja was like the Empress or Queen up on her pedestal who sends you on a quest while Floor is more like the warrior you kill the Dragon with and then celebrate together with you for a drink in the local tavern while Annette was more like the noble's daughter rich girl who kept dreaming about going one day to adventures ;)

Romanticide next guys from same show!! Heavy and you get to hear Marco the bassist sing.

[@thecarloschp4784]

Yup it is a glorious rabbit hole... 20 + years of magic

[@Thorgrim247]

The name is Floor Jansen (Yahn-sen) the Dutch queen of symphonic metal. Nightwish loves what they do and ae so happy to have Floor as their new singer. On record this was part of the backing track, however Floor wanted to sing this part live. Because she can! Those chills you got are what we Nightwish fans call a "Floorgasm"! Correction men, you are watching a Finnish band with a Dutch singer performing in Germany. Even better. Follow what Gabriel gave you for suggestions. You can't go wrong with anything from Wacken 2013. For something a little heavier try "Romanticide" or for something more Epic, check out "Ghost Love Score" both from this same show. Great reaction my Utahn friends. You will soon discover that Marko (the Viking) is also a very good singer. So much more amazing music and performances to come on this epic journey down the NIghtwish rabbit hole. Jinjer (Tatiana) has an amazing growl and a very good voice, but NIghtwish has Floor and Marco, two of the best (if not THE BEST) vocalists in rock music. Just subbed for the ride. See your two for the next amazing ride. North central US (MN) on board. Peace.

[@testpattern23]

heh "new" singer, she's been on board for about 8 years ;)

[@Thorgrim247]

@@testpattern23 Not when this concert happened. Floor joined October 1st,2012 and this was August 3rd 2013.

[@johnfreeman5310]

Floor wasn't even the permanent singer at this time, she was still filling in. I think the band asked her to make it permanent after the Buenos Aries show. Between you and me I don't think they had much choice seeing as the crowd was chanting her name. Watch the film 'Can you learn the set list in 48 hours?'

[@johnmc128]

There is only one Floor everyone smiles when Floor sings.

[@Timmayytoo]

That bridge section where Floor sings along with the choir backing track was originally just a backing track (even on the studio version) because it was outside the range of the previous singer. That is one of many examples of how she has raised the overall quality of the band. She's turned out to be the missing piece that they (everyone but Tuomas) didn't really realize was missing until the timing finally worked out. Apparently Tuomas wanted her after they let Tarja go but Floor was happy with her band at the time. Having said that, both of the prior singers were excellent and deserve recognition for their contributions. You'll get tons of suggestions but for me the best place to start is anything else from the Wachen 2013 show.

[@scottb.4472]

Floor was definitely a missing piece.........but Floor AND Troy together were the missing pieces.........Floor made Nightwish phenomenal.......Troy made Nightwish "COMPLETE".........

[@Timmayytoo]

@@scottb.4472 He had been recording with them since 2007, before Floor joined. He was made an official member the same time as Floor was offered the permanent gig.

[@scottb.4472]

@@Timmayytoo yes, I am well aware of that...... But it's interesting that after he became an official member it seems like tuomas started writing more stuff for him...... That's more or less what I meant........I'm sure you would agree with me that no matter when Troy started with Nightwish he definitely made that band pretty complete......👍

[@jessicakoster2543]

I read that in an interview with Marko. He said she and her band mates were all close friends and the band was starting to take off, so they didn't have the heart to ask her to break all that up. It really shows the kind of people they are. They put Floor and her needs before what was best for them.

[@oliphant2848]

It's getting even wilder. You're in America reacting to a Finnish (not Swedish) band with a Dutch vocalist (but who lives in Sweden and is married to the drummer of Swedish metal band Sabaton) and a British member playing in Germany. Floor is Dutch (BTW, the pronunciation is just like "floor;" no flure or fleur required; the name means "flower", think Spanish flor), and Troy, the Brit, you haven't seen yet (plays Irish bagpipes, whistles, bouzouki, guitar, and occasionally sings). BTW, there are Nightwish Army members from as far afield as Namibia (Grüße nach Namibia!). They're also very popular in Latin America, and Floor has sung in her career in English, Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Italian, and Latin. It's a multicultural world...

[@CATCHtheSCASE]

This is amazing! 🤘🤘

[@hansv.d.hooven5232]

I just wanted to say to the US dudes: Welcome to Europe, we have much more of this..😄

[@billattercliffe8655]

Don't forget that she also speaks Swedish and has sung in Swedish as well, so to date we're at eight languages and counting. To the SCASE dudes, if you have yet to meet a vocalist that can go from death metal growls to opera (sometimes within the span of one note), well you just have met one.

[@ghostnf9650]

This is just Nightwish cruising along. Anything from this show, Tampere 2015, Wembley 2015, Buenos Aires 2018 are pure gold. Nightwish is always best live. I would suggest Romanticide for a bit heavier Nightwish. Floor Jansen is one of the most versatile, skilled and powerful singers in the world. Nightwish Army Portugal here.... P.S : “This is my favorite Nightwish song”..... until the next one.....

[@Ovrkyl]

Fun fact: observe her command of that crowd, then realize that it's about 82,000 people at an annual metal music festival (NOT an exclusively Nightwish concert), so they're not all there to just see Nightwish...and yet she has them rocking out in the palm of her hand. I personally haven't seen that much crowd control since the late great Freddie Mercury. Floor is the Valkyrie Queen.

Nightwish have never, ever compromised their grand musical vision. That's why they have only ever gotten bigger and bigger. They keep attracting new fans who love what they do. They don't have to change their sound to appeal to a mainstream audience. That's what makes them an incredible modern metal band.

[@oddselstudios166]

You've just scratched the surface of what this band can do. I'd recommend Romanticide 2013 (same concert) as your next adventure. BTW, Steve Harris from Maiden has stated that Nightwish is his favorite band. Have fun in the rabbit hole!

Awesome reactions, cant wait to watch more from you guys!

This whole concert was amazing and nightwish is meant to be listened live

[@demise0]

It's funny that you think this is their anthem. This is actually one of their more conventional songs. Oh you have no idea how deep this rabbit hole goes. You can watch just about anything from their Wacken 2013 performance and be just as blown away. I recommend 'Ever Dream' and 'Song of Myself'. Then try 'Ghost Love Score', 'Romanticide', and 'Ghost River'. Hell then just finish the whole show. Their great epics are 'The Poet and the Pendulum' (Wembley 2015), and 'The Greatest Show on Earth' (Wembley or Tampere 2015)... But you're not ready.

Just watched 20sec of your reaction. Only one thing to say you will loooooooooooooooooove Nightwish!!!!!!!!!!!! Stay with this concert atleast 4 more songs. -Ghost love score -Everdream -Song of myself -Romanticide And did somebody already told you that she joined halfway this tour just to help them out because they lost the former singer. She needed to learn the whole setlist in 48 hours!!!!!! So almost all people at this show saw her for the first time,just like you did:)

[@Blackomegaco]

Glad to see a fellow Broncos fan fall in love with Nightwish. They are the best band ever in my book and I have seen many many band over my years. Have to listen to Ghost Love Score, Poet and the Pengelum & The Greatest Show on Earth. Just to start. Hehehe

[@JargonPhD]

I'm a mere private in the Nightwish Army. Started listening on and off around the time they transitioned to their second singer. Loved the music. Drifted away, though. Then about 18 months ago I saw Ghost Love Score from this same concert on a reaction video. Hooked. Instantly. I now watch NW (and other Floor Jansen) videos every single day, often for more than 2 hours, on and off. Some advice from a newbie turning fanatic: (1) Learn band member names as quickly as you can (first names especially as some of the last names are a little tough); (2) when you get a comment telling you to watch the rest of the Wacken show in a certain order (Likely from Gabriel), follow that list (every reactor I've seen who did so has specifically said they were enormously happy they followed the sequence); (3) do what you can to get caught up because individuals from the band are expanding outside the band, the latest album is huge and the follow-on tour will be atomic. We got you, brothers. Welcome. This is the legendary ride of a lifetime.

[@JargonPhD]

The Pirate on keyboards = Finn Tuomas (TOO-wo-muss) - founding band leader, writer, composer The Rogue on guitar = Finn Emmpu - founding guitarist The Highwayman on drums (2013) = Finn Jukka (Yoo-kuh) - first drummer (since moved to management for health reasons) The Viking on bass = Finn Marco - replacement bassist and frequent metal-virtuoso vocalist The Conqueror Queen = Dutch Floor (Flor) - third front-person with eyes like a wolf, mouth like a lioness, scream of an eagle and heart made of glory The (yet unseen) Druid = Brit Troy - folk instrumentation and vocals The (yet unseen) Warrior = (Finn?) Kai (rhymes with "eye") - human metronome and new drummer suggested by original drummer

[@darkiee69]

When this was recorded it was almost to the day 10 months since Floor did her first concert with Nightwish as their replacement singer after their second singer got fired in the middle of their world tour. When she arrived in the US she had 48 hours to learn the setlist before her first show. There's a documentary about that time here on KZbin "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" Officially Floor and Troy became full members a few months later, inofficially they where asked in July. (this was recorded on August 3:d in front of 82000 people at Wacken (pronounced Vacken) open air in Germany

Referring to the "add something to the live version" comment, that's exactly what she did with their Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013 (one of their best performances, hands-down). GLS wasn't originally done that way, even live with the first singer, Tarja, but when Floor performed it she added her own thing at the end of the song (referred to as The Floorgasm) and it stuck. Now that vocal part is in demand by fans for every live performance of GLS since, and it cemented her position with the band and the fans as the Valkyrie Queen of Nightwish.

The drummer, Jukka, is a beast. One of the hardest hitting guys in metal. Sadly, after this tour he was struck down with chronic insomnia and couldn't continue to play with the band. He turned the reins over to his friend Kai Hahto, who has been playing with them ever since. But Jukka continues to work with the band in a business capacity. He has always been band's accountant.

[@Willifrex]

Since I haven't spotted Gabriel's comment yet, Yoinked and presented here Hello Catch the Scase! 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. Since this is your first couple of Nightwish reactions, 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).

Great Idea, Will. I think he posted on their first video, but a little reminder can't hurt 🤗

[@Willifrex]

@@Duskwind_ darn, Gab is an absolute rock, I hope I didn't detract from his work. Thanks for the kudos, notification, and comment though :)

[@sterlingknight8087]

There are no words to describe this band, this singer, because prior to them there was never any need for such words. The grace, the beauty, the power of Floor is simply beyond words. Coupled with the musical genius of Tuomas and the musicality of Marco, Emppu and Jukka they create (fill in jaw dropping sound)

[@Sadistiq]

I see you've met The Valkyrie, The Goddess.. welcome to the Army. :) She'll pull you in and you won't even want to resist.

[@kalbenus1564]

Thank you for your reaction to the live version. Your reaction was awesome, and trust that it only gets better. The chills you get are called "Floorgasms". You will have many of them as you go deeper into the rabbit hole :) Oh by the way if I remember correctly, the Wacken concert had about 82k+ people.

[@JustPlanoRick]

The entire Nightwish set at Wacken 2013 is DOPE! You will add a LOT of subscribers and "Likes" if you just start at the beginning of this concert (Wacken 2013) and work your way through the entire Nightwish set one song at a time. You WILL be blown away. "Ghost Love Score" from this set is epic and awesome. "Romanticide" is a rocker (Marco, the "viking" bassist, sings on that one and he is incredible). "Ever Dream" "Song of Myself" Basically every song.

[@christinajacobsen6690]

As they are talking about live concerts and their tops all I can think about is just wait. Continue the journey and you will understand.

[@adamcarver6036]

I'm a fellow Utahan here. Love Nightwish. You haven't even begun to go down the rabbit hole yet but you will 👍👍👍

[@dieterschmidt7517]

Well boys, this got you a new subscriber. Keep them nightwish reactions coming!!

[@sharpy3575]

One of the best Nightwish reactions on the youtubes. Great job 🤘🏻

[@CATCHtheSCASE]

Thanks dude!

[@alxm1271]

Amazing reaction! You guys got SMAHED by our Valkirye Goddess. BTW, we call that "chills on top of the chills" thing FLOORGASMS :)

[@josephmcguigan9961]

I saw Nightwish in 2017 and it is still the best show I've ever been to. You can literally pick any song from that Wacken 2013 concert and it is just as good if not better than this. I think Ghost Love Score(from the same show) should be your next song though. Good reaction too!

[@markusjackel2132]

I understand and fully support that you will give the Wacken Show a full run-through....one of your best decisions !! Enjoy the Ride ! Nightwish Army Germany out. All Hail the Queen !

[@christian53050]

It is interesting that the perhaps most important person of the band, Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, who writes their music and outstanding lyrics, is the least visible. Floor is a beast, plain and simple ! Standing way over six feet tall with heels on makes her a bona fide sword maiden. It is really wort paying attention to the lyrics.

[@MicheleNicole]

Heeeeyyyy. Nightwish Iowa here. I am sorry I'm slowly getting through your reactions. I'm glad you were blown away by this one, one of my favorites.

[@Perrrkeles]

Nightwish comes from FINLAND🇫🇮! The home of world class epic metal music💪💪💪!

[@fpazurik]

Incoming NightWish army! I hope you are ready! :) She is our Amazon and Valkyrie. (Other great song to see IMO Romanticide, Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019, Floor Jansen - Puccini, and my favorite Weak Fantasy! 82,000 people at this concert and hands down one of the best stages performances ever imo.

[@TerribleChester]

And now you've been introduced to the greatest living female vocalist on the planet. Buckle up, gentlemen, you're in for an unbelievable ride. You can literally listen to everything on the setlist from this show and it will leave you blown away. Ghost Love Score I Want My Tears Back Romanticide Amaranth Song of Myself and the criminally underrated Last Ride of the Day Just to name a few.

[@damonbryan7232]

Nightwish is at their best live. As you have found out. Their albums are just teasers for live performances. You should really treat yourself to the whole concert. It's legendary. Wait till you hear the Viking sing.
