MANA REACTS: Nightwish - Song of myself

[@charleshallier7853]

Hi Mana, I’m a broken down 60 year old man with a beautiful daughter about your age. From the ‘60’s forward, I got to witness the evolution of rock music. Major Nightwish fan. I like reacts because I enjoy watching youthful people feeling music as I do/did especially when watching older videos. I wouldn’t trade places with anyone decades younger than myself..It hurts me that your gen doesn’t have what I had regarding music over the past 50 years.or ‘60’s - 90’s. You’re obviously educated and candid with your reacts. I respect your opinion as expressed in your reacts. Most younger KZbinrs just bob there heads and often totally miss the point of older rock music. I respect and appreciate your approach to music. Don’t know if you’ve done or heard Pink Floyd’s - Comfortably Numb, live “Impulse” concert version, if not, please check it out. You will be pleased, guaranteed. Please keep doing what you do, so well. Like a radio disk jokey, you help people by filtering out lesser music. We only had a disk jokey that we trusted to filter songs, of course we didn’t have hundreds of genres just in “rock.” I’m going to sub to you as you are important to help people navigate through millions of songs ~ Peace Sister ✌️and thank you again. 😊

[@thomaskempton6270]

MANA, there is nothing wrong with the way you edit or react to your videos. I think you do an excellent job of it. Continue the way you do it. Thank you.

[@chewie2648]

Absolutely. I agree 100%. Very nice lady.

[@orion351us]

I agree.

[@Schnorgldorf]

For sure.

[@harleyquinn8011]

Yup, that's Floor: She can do whatever she likes with her voice. I would say there's not so many vocalists like her in the world who has that large vocal range and who has that versatile delivery.

[@stevenzwiesler8085]

makes me wonder what Nightwish would be like if Floor was with them from the very beginning.

[@jimmyboy131]

That's an interesting thought. But Floor has grown noticeably as a singer from her early days back in the 90s. So if they were together from the beginning, we'd be talking about those early days before she had the range and control she has now.

[@cbzcbzx]

Nightwish - Yours Is An Empty Hope (Nightwish Cruise / Baltic Princess LIVE) Hevy with growls from Floor.

[@corneliusantonius3108]

YES YES YES a kazzilion times YES

[@mangalover0149]

Same with Ghost River

[@Schnorgldorf]

Absolutely. I love this one so much.

[@johannessilver8653]

Awesome music again by Tuomas and great riffs by Emppu. Jukka is also a beast in the drums...damn they all are great.

[@1981juhis]

Thanks!! Great reaction👍.. I saw them live just last night so still little excited because of that!! They are just that AWESOME🤘🤘 More Nightwish, please😉 (Yours is an empty hope, live at Tampere)👍

[@chewie2648]

I saw them live in November. It was really really good. The sound and this amazing voice. I think I had my first real floorgasm at this concert. It was so epic.

[@Piia2023]

@@fdsannie it was Ann...amazing show...how can you sleep after that...☺

[@casualcarolinafishing5835]

I don't see anything wrong with your reactions. Nightwish is full of surprises and Floor is simply unreal the way she changes her voice to match the mood of the verse she's singing.

[@corneliusantonius3108]

"Yours is an Empty Hope" will shock you even more, on board of the "Baltic Princess" The nightwishe Cruise

[@elkutuplay]

Mana! You have to react to The Poet And The Pendulum from Nightwish too... That song is a reaaaally big and good experience, you'll really like it!

[@NatsNotHere]

Floor - Badass Amazon Goddess Queen Boss!! 😂 I just love that she’s a true metalhead and the energy she brings. Great reaction! 😎

[@Decay0]

Storytime, same concert, or Yours is an Empty Hope, which is honestly one of their best, especially with Floor. Super heavy (for Nightwish).

[@andersoncorreadasilva1874]

Nightwish - Yours is an Empty Hope - Live from the Artic Princess cruise. You need that performance!

[@doji-reacts]

Storytime and Poet and Pendulum.. awesome songs by Nightwish

[@teijoh]

The keyboard player and founder of this band Tuomas writes and composes pretty much everything. This song is about Tuomas like many of their songs :)

[@ChasingTheGhost]

Master Passion Greed! To me, the heaviest Nightwish song and also the bass playing Marco takes lead.

[@argantyr5154]

Yeah but also Ghost River, Romantice, The Poet and the Penduleum.

[@mangalover0149]

@@argantyr5154 She's done Romanticide.

[@argantyr5154]

You're right, my bad.

[@mangalover0149]

[@elamanvetta1685]

I agree. It's too bad Floor will never sing Master Passion Greed live. :\

[@matthewgaines9065]

Thank you for all the Nightwish videos!!! Love watching you find how the band hits you and how it makes you fell!! These guys are Amazing Live!!! I love all 3 eras of Nightwish but Floor Jansen is a Beast!! Best singer out there!! Mana, Yours is a Empty Hope- Live is a Awesome song, you’ll hear floor growl during the chorus as Marco sings the clean... She truly can and does it All!!! Nightwish is something that just hits the soul!!! Great reactions, and thank you for your work on your channel!!!

[@fdsannie]

Matthew I could not have said it any better......... especially " Nightwish is something that just hits the soul"............... :-)

[@matthewgaines9065]

Ann, thank you. I know there are so many die hard fans of this band. :) I was always a thrash metal kinda guy, old school Metallica, testament, etc... but then I found this band that is Nightwish!! I swear it seems they placed the notes just for me...lol. Keep doing what you do Ann, all your comments are great and informative!!!! You, my lady, are a true fan!!! I love it!!! Have you caught them live?

[@fdsannie]

@@matthewgaines9065 Yes I saw them in march. They are amazing! Aren't they? Thank you for the kind words. Don't worry I am not going to stop! There you go again with another statement........... "placed the notes just for me". Are you a writer or a poet? That is a beautiful statement.............. :-)

[@matthewgaines9065]

Yes, the concert was way cool. I saw them in Dallas Texas in April. Was one of my favorite concerts ever!! Man, I wish I could see them with their full light show in Europe!! That would be truly amazing! See you on the next Nightwish Reaction!! :)

[@fdsannie]

@@matthewgaines9065 Me too! I would like to say one of their big concerts. I saw them in Piitsburgh PA. See you later.....

[@angelcastellom6866]

Hi! Thanks for reacting to another Nightwish song. I would love you to react to "The Greatest Show on Earth (Live Tampere)", that performance is outstanding!!

[@warhammer5690]

Love your work Mana. Keep it up the way youre doing it. Got a new sub here. Also your eyes.. Total WOW factor.

[@thekingslime8334]

just soak it in that she learned the setlist of that show in 2 days and was her first performance with them as the frontwoman

[@matthewozyer-key3224]

Damn this song is fucking awesome! Thanks for introducing it to me :)

[@madhatter6708]

well done, good choice... We love our Nightwish!

Nightwish. Yours is an empty hope. Live. Wembley. 'Nough said. :D ♥

Gotta do Story Time official live by nightwish next Edit: also Marco came swinging for the fences with his vocals on this one. He went yard on it!

Very nice, I think you would really like Ghost River from the same show at wacken 2013

[@ricksix3119]

You're Cool Mana, Keep on Keeping On. We Love you!

[@mangalover0149]

Also, this was sung straight after Ghost Love Score. It was also the second to last song performed on the concert, which is 1 hour and 38 minutes long, I think. Just watch it in your spare time, it's bloody fantastic.(it's on youtube) Floor went into her head voice, her technique is brilliant.

[@davidsuttles101]

One of my favorite songs with Floor...just something about it!

[@MauroGarciaMJr]

Storytime is a good one to check after that. Maybe Ghost River and Last Ride of the Day (all from Wacken 2013...you cant go wrong with this concert)

[@fdsannie]

Thank you for playing this song. It is one of my favorites. I want to let you know that it is only half of the song. The second part they have family and friends reciting the lyrics with beautiful music in the background. Because of this they never did that part live. If you get a chance it would be worth your time to hear the whole song. This song was originally sung by the 2nd singer Anette Olzon. That is who you will hear singing the studio version. I suggest you do one with the lyrics. If you do could you let me know what you think. I am not asking for a reaction video, I just want to know. Thank you. Also don't let people get to you about the way you are or aren't doing things. You are the one doing all the work. You are just getting started and they should realize that this is a learning process. I for one love your enthusiasm. All the rest will come............ :-)

I could't miss that. And then I found this. Three days late :O And S#!t she did Poet too. This is gonna bee long evening. I'm so sleepy...

My one last wish is to see them in concert before I die .

[@biffie186]

Wat leuk een Nederlandse dame ! Anyway xd nightwish is very good with (our) floor Janssen as lead singer but what I suggest is the phantom of the opera (live an end of an era ) with Tarja as lead vocalist you will be amazed 🤗👍🙂. Ps ga zo door leuk kanaal

[@VoltagemeisteR_]

So far, your reactions are very good! Love them. :) Only thing is, sometimes when you hit the table or lay your headphones down, the Mic picks it up and you can hear it. Its like a deep Oomph.

[@amin0689]

Nightwish _ greatest show on earth(live at tampere) Nightwish _ poet and the pendulum (live at wembley arena) Nightwish _ wish i had an angel

[@luiz.A69]

Nice reaction... You are speechless, simple, that's a Floorgasm!!! 🤘

[@ronaldboers8061]

These reaction video should never feel like a obligation. This should also be fun for you to create them. So far i think you are doing a good job at creating these reaction video. As far i am concerned i see no need for big changes to be made. You sound more and more like a true believer in the goddess that is Floor Jansen. :-). The next song to take a look i would recommend to listen to "Yours ia an empty hope" live at the Nightwish cruise. In this song she is actually using her growling voice that you have not heared yet. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqW7ooiEd52tqLc Prettige feestdagen en alvast een gelukkig nieuwjaar.

[@juhalaakso5835]

You should hear 7 days to the wolves live at Wembley 2015

[@justuss_]

Awesome reactions and I like your edits also so no worries :) I think you should react to Master passion greed if you want their heaviest song and The poet and the pendulum live at Wembley is more epic song and 14 minutes long!

I've seen some mention it in passing. And mostly also in conjunction with saying his voice matches well with Floor's. Guess thats what u get with a band where the female front vocalist gets the most attention. Hes still awesome in my books too :)

"She's so good. Oh she's so good" Yeah she is, but how is it that so many "reactor" does not mention how good the whole band is. How fucking talented every member of this band is and what kind of genius Tuomas Holopainen is in composing and writing lyrics. How great Floor's very impressive voice comes up with this band. I not so impressed when she sang with her own band (ReVamp) with very mediocre composing. Honestly! She became famous with this band and because of genius mind of Tuomas. Sorry if i offended somebody, but it's the truth.
