Metal vs Girlfriend React to - Nightwish - Ghost Love Score [2019] episode 3

[@HiljaisetAskeleet]

I like your concept! Many already commented about pausing, but it's hard to do that in right places since you honestly listened this the first time. :) And these epic NW songs are tough in my opinion, there's a lot to take in. That's why I recommend something shorter, faster paced by them (if you do Nightwish some point again). Like, Storytime or Romanticide from this same concert. :) All the best to you guys and your channel! ps: holy shit the view from your window

[@eriksimca9409]

in all honesty its a reactionvideo, if people want to listen to the song without pauses they can just go and listen to the actual song

[@metalconvert2324]

[@michaelsteel8059]

If you assume that a studio version appeals more to the imagination in terms of music, and this determines your taste, then I personally think you are kidding yourself. A studio version can influence the true singing level to such an extent that it can be disappointing live. A live performance only shows what an artist is capable of in terms of voice use and instrumental realistic sound. I do understand what you mean when you say that the visual aspect of a live performance now (can) influence you. But that is independent of taste or learning to love a new kind of music genre. It is about the complete live on stage album that shows what the band, singer and type of music stand for. You like it or not. But the music doesn't change with that. On the contrary, it is important to see the artist live and then to be able to colour the picture through a purely digital studio recording.

"you need to pause because i need to make a point" she wasnt even listenning to the song

[@gavinchapple8350]

That's why most reviews suck ass. It doesn't take the musical knowledge of mozart to realise when an important part of the song is happening and yet they still never fail to pause because they like the sound of their own voice. Some of the best reviews I've seen on KZbin are guys that tell you from the outset they don't pause 👍 you can see what they think through facial expressions and then they review at the end. I'll always go out of my way to praise them in the comments as being a good reviewer.

[@baronnuuke7821]

@@gavinchapple8350 no pause reviews are clearly the best but I think it's something about copyrights and basically if you want to get paid you have to pause like every 30s in the song. I even watched some reviewers pause and straight up say "no, I just pause because I have to" and continue with the music. But most feel like they have to make up excuses and BS analysis of obvious stuff nobody cares unless it's very scientific stuff like from voice teachers.

[@jpdemer5]

​@@gavinchapple8350 Actually, the very best reviewers pause a lot, because they have something worthwhile to say. Check out The Charismatic Voice, where Ghost Love Score is dissected by a professional singer (Elizabeth Zharoff). Not that that's what's happening above... 🤷‍♂

And people that say that some singer's are better because they have been around for a longer need to think up a good reason and not to come up with something that dusn't even matter. And if Nightwish is from 1996 that was a greath year because Within Temptation is also from 1996.

Fun fact: Nightwish was way before Evanescence, Evanescence were inspired by Nightwish. Nightwish was the band that brought symphonic metal into "mainstream", their first album was released in 1997 and by their 3rd album, Wishmaster (2000), they were already a big name in european and japanese rock scenes. Evanescence released their debut album (Fallen) in 2003 one year after Nightwish released their widely acclaimed 4th album, Century Child. :D

[@jackstorm5649]

Actually I believe Evanescence was formed in 1995. However they didn't put out a full length album until the early 2000's By that time Nightwish had released 4-5 albums and were on their 2nd world tour.

[@ThunderwingDoomslaye]

Depends on the country I guess, here Within Temptation brought the genre, as far as it existed back then for some reason everyone called it gothic metal, into the mainstream. Ice Queen was a pretty big hit and was played all over the mainstream media.

It has always surprised me that American metal fans often don’t know many internationally renowned bands even in the Internet era. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the American show business is trying to protect its market from "foreign invasion." :-) When Evanescence appeared in 2003, it seemed ridiculous to me that it was advertised almost as the "world's first gothic metal band with female vocals", although in Europe those kind of bands existed and were popular at least from the mid-90s.

I'm disappointed by some of the comments. The first 2m30 of the video basically tell STAN, Snowflakes, Easily offended, etc, to fu** off (in the most polite way possible), which is a good thing. Honest reactors don't need these kind of whiner who dislike for the sole reason that you did not validated their love for their favorite singer. Whoever you guys decide to react to next the comments section will also be full of these individual, it's not exclusive to Nightwish or metal fan it's the same for every fan base. They are looking for honest reactors (yeah right!) but u will get love in the comments only if you are a cheerleader-dishonest waste of reactor space, which I find highly hypocritical. Some of the top reactors in subs count will never say anything negative ever, they are the fakest of the fakest, but they get praise for their authenticity, go figure...

"You need to pause this..." No, you need to go tf home.

[@fdsannie]

This is Floor the 3rd singer and current singer. It is sad that you stopped it during her highest note. Which we call Floorgasm. Nightwish has so much to offer. One song will not show what they are all about. Here are some suggestions. Ghost River, Song of Myself, and Romanticide all live at Wacken 2013. Here is some info about the band! Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a female fronted symphonic metal band. 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 who is a multi-instrulmentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now still is. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen. (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) 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 live (Floor).

[@TheEscapist90]

It's understandable she immediately recognized Evanescence, since they are maybe the most popular band of the genre in America (I can tell you I love Nightwish, but I really don't love Evanescence). But Symphonic Metal definitely started and developed in Europe, and Nightwish have been (and still are) one of the leading forces that brought it to success. Most important note: I have seen so many reactions to Ghost Love Score now. I think nightwish fans are flooding all reaction youtube channels asking for Ghost Love Score. BUT this is the first time I hear someone say that Floor Jansen sings like a mermaid. Usually people say "oh she seems like an angel" and that's totally wrong! The whole Nightwish symbology revolves around the "ocean" concept and female voice is really thought to be the one of a siren or mermaid. So....THANK YOU for saying that see seems like a mermaid. Wacken 2013: it's a summer festival (in germany I think). There were 82.000 people there, enjoying Nightwish's concert ;) Nightwish really do have a majectic production machine when it comes to "make the show", the performance itself is a great part of their concert: with all the backing animations on the giant screen, the fireworks and the lights. I would advice to always listen to metal on live videos, it's just so much better (even if Nightwish is extremely good even on the studio version to me) AND...bad bad guys for pausing on the Floorgasm (yes her final note, we call it Floorgasm) without saying anything about it

[@metalconvert2324]

[@victoralanvalenzuela7713]

She could hear "the siren" from Nightwish with Tarja. It's a little more heavy and you could show her that the comment about that Floor sing like a mermaid was very accurate, because she get the essence of the band.

[@TheJama64]

Live versions is where you actually see how good the band or artist is. Some mainstream singer’s are horrible when you heard them live, even with correcting the voice. When you listen Nightwish, listen them live, they are awesome. There are no long guitar solos or free jamming, because it’s symphony based music. I don’t belive that Beethoven did write the concerto where next 12 bars everybody is free to play what ever they want ;). If you will discover Nightwish you will notice that Tuomas Holopainen (keyboardist) is one of the greatest songwriters of current era. He is genius.

[@johncheek2415]

Nightwish has been around since 1996, their first singer was Tarja Turenen, and she was released in 2005 due to conflicts and the next singer after 18 months of searching was Anetter Olzon she was released in 2012 due to severe conflicts with the band band and then Floor Jansen took over on 48 hours notice and the rest is history. And no Evanescence was not first, actually Amy Lee said she got her inspiration from Tarja. Evanescence can't carry Nightwish's boots, Nightwish is so far above other bands to be relative unkowns in the US 8 years ago, but now they seel out every venue they play in the US. Floor is a classically trained vocalist, and is the most requested guest musician in Europe. Their drummer Jukka is in a class of his own, enought said.

[@F1rstWorldNomaD]

Its Evanescence who are Nightwish-like... Nightwish has been around since officially since 96 (the concept of the band since 94 if unverified source are to be believed) They were one of the first if not the first band in this genre and theyre undoubtedly the most successful. Also as much as I love Amy Lee she cant hold a candle to Miss Floor Jansen and though it may ruin the magic, the sorcerer in Nightwish is the Keyboardist Tuomas. He is the lyricist and Composer and a true music genius, Floor is more of the Enchantress using the magic to spellbind the audience, she as well is a one in a billion artist. (And you need to layout a format, that pause at the the end, in the middle of the crescendo is not something people will forgive twice... Im not being mean, just telling you as it is)

[@nemo5621]

This is actually their 3rd and current singer. Her name is Floor and she is an extremely versatile singer. Check out "Romanticide" or "Ghost River" from the same show to hear her sound more "Metal". "Song of Myself" is awesome as well. She's amazing and by far the best singer they have had.

[@vittoriolionti5425]

I like her comments. She is not into heavy metal but she is very openminded to hear it close and understand it. Comparing Amy Lee to Floor Jansen is only because she does not have any reference to be equally compared to because she is not a metalhead. The "commercial" hard/heavy music that is aired on radio/tv is Evanescence and a few other bands. In Italy there is not a heavy metal radio. Floor Jansen has a operatic singing preparation, has a beautiful voice and she can manage airflow to sing whatever she wants to. This song has appeared into their album named ONCE and the female voice of Nightwish was Tarja Turunen that left during the 2012 tour and Wacken Open Air festival lasts 3 days between end of July and beginning of August (2013). She had little time to learn all their songs and performing THIS is the sign that she is an amazing singer. Watching this video and listening to her could appear that she has passed years to sing it but it was only a few months and in a so short time she has made this! I suggest you to go to one of their live shows, regardless the ticket price, because she is a real miracle of nature. The alchemy in their shows is incredible and the chemistry that ties the band is visible. Once the show begins, everything flows and is incredible.

[@philiplengefeld3331]

This is Floor Jansen. She is their third and current vocalist. Although this an AMAZING performance, please don't judge the band by a single song or performance. They have an incredible selection to choose from. I recommend you listen to Everdream and Romanticide from this same show. That's just to name a couple. Thanks for your reaction. You should also check out Greatest Show On Earth.

[@alexanderslooijer4533]

No they didn,t. Tell me they did not. This cant be true..... wake me up and tell me iT was a nightmare.... pause during floorgasm. Nooooooooo

[@sjokken1]

First of all. Nightwish was first with this music. Evenecense is a very faded shadow Next to Nightwish and Even though i love amys voice its not in the same league as Floor Jansen. But I have a huge problem with your videos. The way I understand it is that she is the one that wants to learn to love metal. But when the guy is making jokes and telling what he doesnt like then he ruins her experience. And by the way... You should check out the other bands live. They Will not give you the epic feeling live. And if you want to like metal you should not pause as much. Its not like pop where its 1 Line in repeat. And btw. To hit the drums fast is not the same as beeing a good drummer. Timing is everything.

[@AudriusN]

Therion started symphonic metal couple of years earlier

[@Dodgevair]

Best singer on the planet today. Toumas, the keyboard player has that amazing cpu for writing these songs, but Floor is the real deal. The boys best take care of her...their future is VERY bright with Floors vocals IMO. I too had never heard of them until came across a YT reaction video. Hook, line and sinker as they say. Amazing super-group.

[@alejandrogil3552]

Hi, I'm from Argentina. Thanks for reacting to this masterpiece. But I must say that it hurt me deeply how you cut the best part. the end. The FLOORGASM ¡¡¡¡ why, why did you do that?

[@alejandrogil3552]

@@CuratedEras Thank you for your response. I am also very happy that you enjoyed it. Floor Jansen is a badass right ?. and do not worry I know it was not your intention, and I know very well that you liked the band and the metal queen the Dutch goddess. To remedy the final error, I will give you one more chance haha. Choose any theme of the 2013 recital (Wacken) to react and you will be forgiven. Greetings from Argentina and many thanks to the two for appreciating the good music

[@stephencaveney827]

Good reaction up to a point, you guys paused in the middle of THE NOTE (better known as the Floorgasm) her name is Floor Jansen and she is the queen of metal. She is the current singer, Annette was the 2nd singer (the not so operatic singer) Tarja was the oringinal singer who smashed the symphonic metal door right in. 🤘🤘

[@Vakaria-plays]

You dare to pause in the middle of the floorgasm???!!! SACRILEGE!!!!!

[@2727rogers]

You hit the nail on the head. The beauty of groups like Nightwish is what you hear live is as good or better than what the recording sounds like. Find groups like that and you have found real music not commercial music.

[@trinxikene]

Maybe you wanna see different side to Nightwish, maybe try Romanticide or Storytime?

[@michaeldougherty2807]

The original singer (that this song was written for) was Tarja, did exclusively opera vocals. The 2nd singer Annette, who you probably heard before, was pop sounding. This is the current singer Floor Jansen. She can perform many different styles of singing. The Keyboard player writes 95% of their songs. A few other songs that you might like: Nightwish - Ever Dream live at Wacken 2013 Nightwish - Shudder Before the Beautiful live at Wembley Revamp - Sweet Curse live featuring Simone Simmons of Epica Kamelot - My Confession

[@mikkolaine4883]

This song is more vocal driven than other Nightwish songs so the instrumentation is not that visible except the orchestrations (which are by the same orchestra that made the score of The Lord of the Rings). The drummer Jukka Nevalainen is one of the greatest. It is a real scene to see him performing. He plays with big moves and attitude and he hits HARD. He has suffered from insomnia and had to step a side for now and he has been replaced by Kai Hahto. He is the best drummer from Finland in technical point of view. I like Jukka's style better but I was pleased to hear Kai was gonna taka his place. Nightwish isn't the band that first took the symphonic elements but they are the band that raised the genre in front of the big audience. Nightwish is also older than Evanescense and more variative, even heavier at times. Nightwish's style is very unique. The main songwriter and the keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen has been called as Modern Mozart. This era songs are from his head and feelings. Their two first albums had more fantasy like theme but the third one turned it more into human mind. The first one with their second singer Anette Olzon, the heavy dark monster Dark Passion Play is a heavy, sad, depressive and angry voyage into your deepest mind. The opening track The Poet and the Pendulum is truly worth of listening to. It is their darkest and most powerful song ever. Not saying the best but one of them. Again I demand to take the Live version from Wembley. It is sang by Floor Jansen and she really adds more feeling to this one than Anette. Anette is a good singer tho but she doesn't have that huge ability to give feeling to a song. The next album Imaginaerum is a trip to power of imagination. Not as heavy but very creative. One of my favorite songs Last Ride of the Day is in the second last spot when Song of Myself ends the album. Last Ride of the Day (Live at Wacken) ends the concert you just watched. Nice uplifting and heavier song. Therr latest turns the sledge in a totally different way. It is about life and evolution. The album is ended by a 24-minute monster The Greatest Show on Earth. Evolution-biologist Richard Dawkings has speaking role in the album and his books have been used in the lyrics. That song is also worth of listening. Again, live version is desired (live at Tampere). One heavier song with more technical instrumentation is Romanticide (live at Wacken). It is originally in Once album but again Floor nails it great. The current singer Floor is totally superior amongst all the metal singers. She can make Amy Lee look like a choir girl. She is that good. You heard most of her techniques and abilities. She can also growl but she does that only in two of their songs (Ghost River and Yours Is an Empty Hope). She doesn't use her operatic style that often so it's more like a season to add flavour where needed. She can be an angel, siren or the warrior Xena. Nightwish is really popular in Europe and they do festival headlining like the this Wacken show, sold out arenas as well. There were 75000 people in the crowd. The reason why people want you to do the live versions coz they give a lot more impact but still the impact you are feeling is real even when just listening the studio versions. Also most of the songs sound so much better with Floor. She gives them totally new life. Nightwish has their own magic that no other band has. Also you see how great they are on the stage. I have seen them 14 times live and every time they blow me away.

[@lanamereltube]

@Mikko Laine Great summary! Apparently not everyone shares our passion for Nightwish (yet), which is okay. I also had to get used to all the aspects and layers of these compositions, but when it grabbed me, it never let go again! So I guess we shouldn't take a first review like this thát serious. Having said that ... what I don't understand is the remark "these guys are doing basic things", which is far from the truth, even if the music doesn't appeals to you. Like you described above, these are top musicians, playing complex and beautiful compositions ... but again, apparently not everyone has the same set of ears. Best regards from the Netherlands

You do not stop in between when she is on the Top Notes or in general. Do not stop it. You loose the whole experience by stopping. She is no Chick. Her Name is Floor Jansen. She is a Valkyrie. Just the Name the Fans gave her long ago. Cause she can also do it like Tarja abd Anette (Former NW Vocalists also very good, different)

[@rockrips]

What I like most about this song is the passion - obviously for a lost love, and because I lost my twin flame when I was 32, this speaks directly to a piece of my heart. Other than that, yeah the show is amazing, but if you watch past performances by the other vocalists - Anette Olzon and Tarja - you'll notice that this is different. The passion is also in what the musicians are doing and how they're playing. I also love how it's 5 or 6 songs in one. Melodies weaving in and out of each other. If you want to see something else amazing, check out Floor in her earlier band, After Forever, doing Energize Me. The voice is real!

[@timish71]

I love Nightwish but the fan base can be a bit overbearing. I would also argue the only real similarity between Evanscence and Nightwish are the fact they have a female lead singer. Enjoyed listening to you guys, i'll sub! I would recommend Unleash the Archers - Awakening (band playthrough). Female lead singer. Power Metal. It's very melodic.
