Lyrics:
[Intro: Spoken]
The deepest solace lies in understanding
This ancient unseen stream
A shudder before the beautiful
[Verse 1]
Awake Oceanborn
Behold this force
Bring the outside in
Explore the self to epiphany
[Pre-Chorus]
The very core of life
The Soaring high of truth and light
[Chorus]
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
[Verse 2]
Tales from the seas
Cathedral of Green
[Pre-Chorus]
The very core of life
Is soaring higher of truth and light
[Chorus]
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
[Bridge]
The unknown
The grand show
The choir of the stars
Interstellar
Theatre play
The nebula curtain falls
Imagination
Evolution
A species from the Vale
Walks in Wonder
In search of
The source of the tale
[Chorus]
The music of this awe
Deep silence and the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers
The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love
This vagrant island Earth
A pilgrim shining bright
We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful
We, the voyagers

Overall, not just vocally. Her on stage energy basically brightened the whole band, all on stage are smiling, which didn't happen that much (like in almost every song) back then with Tarja or Anette.

Nightwish needs to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Very few could ever hope to match the level of story telling, performance and atmosphere they create. Combining metal, rock, operatic and folk elements, and symphony orchestras to create such incredible scores unworthy of movies. It shouldn't work, but it does and it does it so well.

[@olgahein4384]

Who wants to be called Rock & Roll if they are Metal? Nightwish has been inducted into the Metal Hall of Fame in Finland. They have a museum dedicated to them. And a musical. And a movie. And a whine. And archeological findings. And newly discovered animal species. So, yeah.

[@davidbentley4032]

@@olgahein4384 Who wants to be called rock and roll? Just about any artist/band if it means getting in that Hall of Fame. Many beg to do it. And it would mean they'd 'conquered' North America; a goal they haven't come close to achieving yet. With respect, the Metal Hall of Fame isn't quite in the same league. And it means international permanence which all bands seek because one day they will all be gone.

[@olgahein4384]

@@davidbentley4032 I think that's a difference between the european and american mindset. Conquering whatever is not really on our agenda. Been there, done that. There are greater and more desirable things to do and to achieve. Like for Nightwish, being the unmatched No. 1 within their music genre for decades. And making music that they love themselves and having people on stage that they want to have there. You will never have them a Lady Gaga wiggling next to them on their stage, while looking like they wish someone would nuke them right then and there (referring to that one concert of Metallica - a band who did conquer Northamerica).

[@missy610]

When I first discovered Nightwish many, many years ago I was instantly drawn to their music. However, after listening to them a few times, I quickly got sick of it because although Tarja's voice was undeniably beautiful, it sounded kind of similar in every song. But when Floor came in, it felt like I was discovering the band for the first time all over again. She makes every song sound so much more dynamic and adds so much energy, emotion and versatility to them. Now I can say Nightwish is one of my favorite bands because of her. I am not saying in any way that Tarja is an inferior singer but I do find Floor a much better fit for Nightwish.

[@madhatter2012]

Well said Miss Y, and I agree.

[@McLovin112]

This is just like me talking here.

[@palba03]

Agree!!

[@remusprimus2392]

Sums up my experience pretty much. When Tarja 'left' at first I was shocked because I have grown accustomed to the sound, but it still had to grow on me back in the days. Also when I found out Floor was joining NW I was filled with national pride (being dutch): A dutch singer joining NW! I love how the band have that synergy and are enjoying the music and performing it. It makes me enjoy the music even more. This is of course more apparent live: great energy and I totally makes me happy for them that they can enjoy this live themselves. The best way to judge a band is to see them live, and they absolutely kill it. And Floor just rocks in stage presence, vocal control and appearing as a member of the band, not just as a singing addition to the band. Still I do also love Annette's voice on for example Amaranth. I do also listen to Tarja's work now and then and I like that as well, so it's not like I don't appreciate her singing.

I've only been listening to them for 8 months or so and I'm so deeply impressed by Floor's vocals I can't even bring myself to listen to either of the previous ladies.

That stage entrance... It's Queen Floor's way of saying: "I'm in command now!"

[@ManinManchester]

The person in command is the one at the keyboards on the left. If he decides he doesn't like her any longer, for whatever reason, she's gone. Sorry, but have to be pragmatic about these things.

[@sessamelkr9394]

@@ManinManchester and Floor is talented enough to be in another band in no time. She's been in metal for +20 years. Just saying.

[@JoTummers]

@@ManinManchester I think Tuomas has good ears. He is a musical genius. I cannot imagine that he doesn't hear her outstanding quality. She's already with the band for 7 years. And i hope she will be there MUCH longer. And if not, it's Nightwish's loss. As @Sessa says: she will be heared in another band. Although I hope she stays.

[@ManinManchester]

I agree with all of this, your comment and @Sessa Melkor. I'm just making the point that Floor isn't "in command" of the band, which was the original comment. She isn't "The Queen". Tarja made the mistake of thinking that and the many, many comments I read on just about all Nightwish YT videos, which suggest that Floor is the raison d'etre of the band rather than just the current singer will not go unnoticed by three people who are essentially fragile.

Раньше я думал что без Тарьи я не буду любить группу Nightwish, но я ошибался - я буду любить Nightwish с каждым разом больше и больше, вне зависимости от состава. Потому что эта группа для меня - ЛЕГЕНДА

nightwish is only band whose songs sounds in live much better than in studio versions

[@ronaldboers8061]

for me the same can be said for Within Temptation. But Nightwish is fantastic live. Will be seeing them agaiin in november.

[@Ausbilder100]

i add Rammstein ;)

[@corneliusantonius3108]

Queen

[@DekkarJr]

I completely agree. I want a live concert version of the Siren with Floor on vocals so bad. Also I;'ve noticed. that Empuu's tone on his guitar/amp setup is waaay better live than it is on any of their records, it helps fill out the songs a lot more.

[@classified150]

Except anette :(

[@neofitsolovan3882]

The sound engineer did a great job for this gig. I remember I was totally blown away when Empu's guitar kicked in.

[@EndofFile79]

A few words for the always underrated Emppu in this one: amazing guitar tone, both rythm and leads, great and rock-solid groove. He remainds me of Brian May: a great musician who plays guitar. No shredder, but a master of good taste and musicianship. Kiitos!

[@Eagle4448]

Symphonic metal is not so mainstream. Amazing artists and musicians and no spotlights of the media. If Floor where an american R&B singer (and she sings it too) she wold be a legend as Mariah, Withney, Barbra, Celine, Aretha...

[@fraukehammer4624]

Thank you Floor and Nightwish, you are the light at the end of the tunnel. The Battle between Toumas and Emppu is one of the best i ever see. I see Nightwish three Times. The last Time in Oberhausen, Germany 2018. I was there with a lot of disable People and they has so much Fun the whole Concert. I am a 65 year old Guy, but i must cry the whole Concert.😍😍😘😘🥰🥰

I reckon there wont be a more anticipated person to appear on a rock stage in 2018 than this phenomenon called Floor Jansen. Im sorry but she has stolen my soul. Sorry Bruce and Maiden (life long fan Brothers) this is now the best live band in the world. And that is with ultimate respect. And I also pay deep respect to the whole Nightwish group. Fantastic songs by Tuomas and great skills by all the band (Marco special mention cause I love his guitar and voice) This band is on the verge of SUPERSTARDOM.

[@fruit5003]

Hope you've heard Blind Guardian's live stuff, that if something is great!

[@saludahead]

No, brother, your soul is forever yours. I love both those incredible bands but for different reasons! One could never replace the other! I would, however LOVE, to see them on the same stage at the same show! Nightwish, and Iron Maiden on a world tour together! Now that is a wet dream in Technicolor!! And we know who will be piloting the plane!

[@nicolesmrekar2046]

Blind Guardian blows live, especially without all the layered vocals. One of the tightest live acts I've ever seen was Iced Earth......and I've seen Maiden 6-7 times, Priest 9 times, etc.

[@rickleblanc8900]

Nightwish are already superstars in Europe but unfortunately North Americans are latecomers to symphonic or power metal.

[@WhiteAngloSaxon]

Rick Leblanc Americans have been so dumbed down and Africanized that they’ve lost their connection with the beautiful European culture from whence they came.
