Nightwish - Shudder Before The Beautiful Reaction

[@mattgraham2835]

what a song to open with relentless bust down the doors is nice dramatic and i love how she spoke very warmly to the crowd of London and a very good evening to you London wembley arena such a really cool and very gracious to say we want to hear you so good great interactions ladies & gentlemen and you may get high with this they sure know how to set a mood that energy that is going to the audience and the band awesome metaphysical energy exchange

[@AldrineIAhoroesi-dv4bl]

Her voice is very powerful. Awesome ❤❤

Goddess FLOOR 💫💥🔥💯🤘😍

[@chrisespinosa7534]

Fun fact: Tuomas (keyboards) composes about 90% of the songs and also composes and works with real Orchestras and choirs to create the symphonic back tracks you hear in most of their songs. It's not synthesized but real instruments recorded since they could not go on tour with them. NW is always an Epic, Cinematic Event and a huge enjoyment watching with others who enjoy this energy!

Always Love your reactions. Such a Beautiful Lady/Woman/Girl. Lol can't wait to watch another reaction. Thanks

[@waydeyeley6104]

If you want to hear Marco sing lead, try While Your Lips Are Still Red, or The Islander. He sings lead on both songs they are wonderful!

[@billrand4138]

pink floyd cover they do with him is better

[@swanny2531]

Yeah I'd recommend High Hopes cover or even something like Planet Hell

[@sonoranreptile]

Also Endlessness from their new album is amazing. Maybe one of my favorite NW songs ever. :)

[@JariJuslin]

It was not just duo, but trio! You could clearly hear Troy in the mix. And the backing tracks are recorded with London Symphony Orchestra, so they have all kinds of instruments indeed.

[@glenngunnis6642]

There is no telling what Tuomas will through into the orchestration!🎸🤘

[@Idefixu]

Marko has done a lot outside Nightwish, but you can hear Marko doing the the vocals alone with Nightwish too: "High Hopes" Helsinki 2005, a tribute to Pink Floyd, Nightwish makes the song heavier than the original PF version. Marko(rock voice), is amazing on vocals, so is the band as a whole. "The Islander" is another one with Marko (mellow, clean, beautiful voice, more power towards the end of the song) entertaining the crowd of 24 000 people in Tampere 2015 practically on his own, the man and his bouble neck guitar, this time he is using the guitar part only. Rest of the band joining him towards the end of the song. Totally different from any other Nightwish song, with folky Celtic vibes, brought by Troy, the multi-instrumentalist from the UK. Composition by Marko himself, lyrics by Tuomas, the keyboardist, the mastermind behind Nightwish. The song wasn't a good fit for Markos own band, so Tuomas thought it could be a Nightwish song. Greetings from Helsinki Finland!

[@alanfoster6589]

And of course Marko is the solo singer on the gentle, lullabye-like ballad Master Passion Greed.

[@Idefixu]

@@alanfoster6589 Yes, lol. But have you seen "Nightwish Lullaby"?

[@darkiee69]

Don't forget the other Tuomas/ Marko colab: Kiss while your lips are still red.

[@bobgamble8204]

Sorry you've not done anymore since this would, would be great to see you back doing more. So many classics still to come!

[@JWNanaimo]

Ladies and gentlemen..start your engines…the show has begun 🤘🤘🤘

[@wil1027]

YES! Great reaction! I remember when this was released as a single - I had it on repeat for days!! 😊😁 Brilliant! Keep it up and take it easy! 👍👌🤘✊

[@maggaw9869]

Nightwish from Finland :)

[@Thorgrim247]

I also think Tuomas' keyboard stand looks like Groot! I think that Groot is being sacrificed for the human race. Tuomas is a nature lover and a tree lover. This may be a statement from him. Remember lovely lady, Nightwish runs backing tracks with lots of orchestral instruments and choirs. Great job MadGebs! Loved it my friend. See you for the next one. Other band include "Within Temptation", "Delain", "Symphony X", and "Epica". Peace.

[@martian50]

I think I recall someone mentioning that the keyboard stand is, in fact, Groot. Can anyone confirm that ???

[@tarmotyyri6733]

Greetings from Finland! It was great to watch you enjoy Nightwish & share that on KZbin for many more people to do the same. P.S. People voted this Nightwish 2015 show at SSE Wembley Arena the 2nd best. Nightwish lost to Queen, which is no wonder as Queen is a domestic band in the U.K..

[@MaggieByName]

What an honor! 🙏

[@allenjohnstone9945]

No one can replace Freddy but I did believe that George Michael would have had a run back in the day.

[@dennislindqvist8443]

Queen are up there among the greatest, so I'm sure Nightwish sees it as a great honor.

[@guidoheuts]

@@dennislindqvist8443 Yanno (me a 54 yr old),being a fan of Queen and Nightwish, one thing is clear, both bands were/are way ahead of their time. I've seen both bands live, and like you stated; both bands are immaculate when it comes to live performances. I was lucky enough to be at the famous 1985 "Live Aid" concert at Wembley stadium, where Queen literally stole the show, aswell as the 2013 Wacken Open Air concert where the star of Nightwish was shining brightly. I will never forget! I look at it like this; "What Freddie was for Queen, Floor is for Nightwish. And anyone can say what they want, Floor and Freddie are THE best vocalists in the world to me. Imagine these two collaberating...that would be heaven!

[@JariJuslin]

You can't really beat yourself for losing to Queen.

[@richardmcleish1820]

If you’re wondering where all the orchestra music is coming from it’s the London Philharmonic Orchestra. That’s how they do all the back tracks with. And then the band plays along with them when they’re on stage. It is a beautiful sound.

[@sayah166]

Every time it’s So nice to see your videos 💐🤘🏻

[@frankpuncekar5051]

Check out Epica, Sancta Terra, feat. Floor. Most Nightwish fans Love Epica and visa versa also Simone lead singer of Epica is really good friend of Floor. I do listen to what you have to say, you mentioned something about childbirth in your comments, keep in mind Simone was three months pregnant when she did this retrospective concert( she has been with Epica since she was 17). Isn’t it great how an old metal head tied that all in. Great job glad your back!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@Cariad1709]

I second this suggestion

[@haralds9996]

'Shudder Before The MadGebs' 👀💖; love that you react to more Nightwish.. what a concert opener; I have tickets for their show in Germany next year. Have Fun and stay safe ! 💥💥💥 You def. would be ready for 'The Greatest Show on Earth' Live at Tampere; Another Experience you will Never Forget.

[@kammurabi2313]

Marko from Nightwish was lead vocal in Tarot. You could try the song 'Tides' (Undead Indeed). He also had a really good solo album out this year called Pyre of the Black Heart. 'The Voice of My Father' has an official lyric video. ❤

[@allenjohnstone9945]

Listen to the Finnish version. So much more fluid.

Hi, Mad... sounds weird. lol Marko Hiatela does have his own band and the only other band that can actually compare with Nightwish is Epica whose singer, Simone Simons, is very close friends with Floor and actually perform in an Epica concert together. That being said I'd like to recommend "Sancta Terra" by Epica live feat. Floor. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘

Damn I need to see Nightwish live!!!! I'd be in tears with emotion for the whole show.

[@chrisw8515]

I just adore this song - I think the reason they sometimes pair it with Empty Hope on a setlist is just for the rollercoaster effect - beauty of life, then the messiness of jerks. Great reaction as always!

[@marmndc]

I've only been listening to Nightwish for like 3 weeks, but i still can't get past Floor lol but she's the reason i started to like them and i'm currently obsessed.

@@mariogansbeke for sure! I haven't listened to anything other than Nightwish for the past several weeks. I've tried getting into them before, back when Tarja was the lead singer, but it just wasn't my cup of tea, sadly (though I still think she is super talented and seems so sweet and I have so much respect for her). But Floor... ugh, no words. Thank you Tuomas for the beautiful music 🖤

[@brianalmeida1964]

Nice reaction. Nightwish sure know how to start a show. Can't wait for May when they return to Wembley. Have been waiting a long time for it. If you want to hear a Marco solo song try Voice Of My Father. I warn you it can be very emotional. 🤘

[@MustaLaatta]

Emppu, the guitar player is so good wit quitar that he has time do pranks,in Wacken 2013i Emppu,, sneaks bhiind Floor and unplugs or turns down her eardips. Floor fixes them while dancing - an around 4:26 emppu returns and Floor turns back to audience him staring emppu with her eyes... Well she revengent, but that's worth new story 😅😅

[@thomaslilly9558]

His name is Marco Hietala, Troy also does vocals. You want heavier...."Romanticide", "Ghost River", "Song Of Myself" and "Yours Is An Empty Hope" should do. More Marco...."The Islander", "While Your Lips Are Still Red.

[@saelfaer]

the guy with the 2 separate beards = Marco Hietala. not sure where you got that topani name... marco has a solo album, so you can hear his voice in isolation both there, and on his solo songs or solo parts on nightwish he sings alone very well in the islander, or their cover of high hopes from pink floyd his solo work has songs like stones . or the voice of my father. both great songs too

[@paisa20]

Thanks

[@robinlynnfox2807]

EPICA is very similar. Their lead singer is Simone and she is a good friend of Floors. Listen to them do Sancta Terra.

[@Duskwind_]

Awesome reaction Gebs 🤗 There are quite a few Symphonic Metal bands that are very good, but since there is only one Tuomas, there is only one band like Nightwish. You really need to experience '7 days to the Wolves' from Wembley, but I can wait as all of your reactions are amazing. I'll just hang out and enjoy you being you 😁 Stay safe my friend.

Have you ever watched Stargate? 😉😅 Anyway, instant sub and I guess I have some catching up to do. See ya! 😊 Edit: and he's back. 😊 All caught up! I really love your Nightwish reactions! Every time you're at a loss for words I wanna say "yep ... I hear ya! I feel exactly the same!" 😊 Keep it coming! You have covered most of the heavy stuff but I have a feeling that you'll enjoy the other songs just the same! 😊 Also I have a nice recommendation for you. Not exactly metal, but if you wanna check out some pretty amazing rock girl power with a singing drummer, check out The Warning and their song "Dust to Dust". 😉

[@warbear323]

IMHO, Nightwish pretty much defines Symphonic Metal. With Floor at the front at what was already a phenomenal band, they really are in a class by themselves. But, since you asked for other bands that are in this vein, here are some that I enjoy: Within Temptation Delain Leaves Eyes Edenbridge

[@MY-se1jf]

Some other cool bands to try might be: The Hu (Rock with (Mongolian throat singing), Eluveitie (Swiss folk metal), Kontrust (What to play when someone claims to know how metal sounds like. This band is from Austria), Van Canto & Apocalyptica (Different style than Kontrust. But same reason to listen a song or two).

[@papaverweg]

The ‘two beard’ Viking is basplayer and 2nd vocalist Marko (Tapani) Hietala. Besides Floor and Marko NW has also a third leadsinger: multi-instrumentalist Troy Donockley. He’s British. Troy was guest musician till Wacken Open Air festival at studio albums and on stage, but together with Floor since end 2013 announced to be full member. You can hear him sing on ‘Harvest’ and frequently playing the Irish elbow bagpipes and flutes. The symphonic music you hear (on almost every song of Nightwish ft. the London Philharmonic Orchestra plus the choir Metro Voices, London. As you said you now wants to also focus on what’s going on beside the vocals here is a link to the instrumental part of this song. Regular NW also release an instrumental version of their albums special ft. the orchestra and choir recordings kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqbYe3evjcl0o8U Since there’s not enough space on stage for a full live orchestra (and also couldn’t go with them on world tour for more than a year) it’s a pre-recorded running soundtrack at Angel Studios, London. This orchestra is featuring on every album NW released since ‘Once’ (except the last one Human :|: Nature). The background choir you frequently hear are the Metro Voices, a choir group also based in London.

Marco has an Excellent voice.. If they need some rasp, he gives it to them.. If they need some heavy harsh vocals, he does that as well. But, he can also sing clean harmonies with Floor also. He does Nightwish songs that feature his more than Floor.. I you want something heavy he sings, They do a Tribute cover of the Pink Floyd song call "High Hopes" it excellent and it only has a Male vocal so he sings it.. There is also a heavy song he sings in called Master, Passion Greed.. Nightwish did this in the gap after Tarja and before Floor...

[@PrototypeBeatLab]

Goddammit, you started talking at the start of Emppus solo and totally missed the switch in keys xD

[@domfol5515]

Voice of my father by Marco, is a song by his side band, forgive me I’m unsure of the band name 🤦‍♂️ Or, Nighwish , the islander , while her lips are still red, romantcide is awesome too !!

[@CCEDE73]

At the time, their lead singer Floor had only been in the band for a few months and many of the audience were fans of the band but did not know their new lead singer. "Shudder Before The Beautiful" was the first song they heard and they were sold from the first number. If you want to hear more from Marko I can recommend Nightwish cover version of High Hopes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqCodaGMmr6Mr68 I can also recommend the Nightwish cover version of "The Phantom Of The Opera" where Marko sings duet with the Nightwishs first lead singer Tarja Turunen: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn2VZqWYo9uAatE
