Nighwish Reaction Floor Jansen While Love Dies Northward

[@kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038]

Ohh this is Floor's old school hard rock project, created back in 2008, together with the super guitarist Jorn Viggo Lofstad from Pagan's Mind. They wrote the songs, recorded the drums ( 2 different drummers) - and then due to the circumstances, they had to put the project on hold for a decade (After Forever disbanded and Floor started ReVamp). In 2017, Nightwish took a year off (and Floor gave birth to her daughter) - and both Floor and Jørn had the time to finish the Northward Album. On the song "Drifting Islands" Floor's sister is singing duet with Floor, and it is pretty hard to hear who is who some times (Irene is a pretty powerful rock singer!!). This song " While love died", Floor wrote about her former boyfriend - their relationship ended after 7 years bad, with hate and bad feelings from both of them (he was a guitarist in After Forever). Floor has just finished a German TV series 'Sinng meinen Song' (same concept as Beste Zangers from the Netherlands) where one of the others did this song as an emotional ballad - and that hit Floor hard, bringing old memories back. It's a phenomenal album 👍 🤘 🤘

[@BrendonChase_2015]

That's some serious high Q info there! Nothing to add except ty for this. Cheers from Amsterdam!

[@Frankamaria]

yes, the song is very autobiographical... Floor was very touched by this performance in thr German TV Show. For me it is hard to see her cry

[@rnowak85]

I think the ReVamp song Sweet Curse, my favorite Floor song, also came out of the end of that realtionship. It is why so much of ReVamp is dark and angry (in a good way). For SueSue the album version features Russel Allen as the male voice in a duet with Floor. There is a fan video of them doing the song live at the album release show.

[@clemenstremens1940]

Yes, she had a long time relation with After Forever’s growling guitar player Sander Gommans. The gossip goes that he cheated on her with Amanda Sommerville (Kamelot) who he later married🤭

[@rnowak85]

@@clemenstremens1940 That had to hurt since she was her vocal coach at one time.

[@oliverdonder7616]

For me, this is one of the often overlooked treasures. If they ever find the time and the inclination to make a second album, I'd love to hear it.

[@laudatosiadastra1218]

I agree, it´s a great sound they have going on.

[@christinaalgate4899]

FYI There's a video called SMS The Floor Jansen Story without fire and its about 45 minutes. The subs are done by Jennizelf just like she did for Beste Zangers. It has Hannes, her sister Irene, her Dad and her closest friend.

[@Beatz-he5xe]

In the German version of the Dutch show Beste Zangers, Sing meinem song The episode Thats has Floor in the couch and the other singers sing for her, she explained the background of this song after being brought to tears. The more balled and beautiful rendition of this song brought Floor to tears because this songs about a 7 years toxic relationship…..

[@ericavantilburg6252]

Yes, that is a beautiful version!🌸

[@chriso6719]

Northward is a studio only side project. They've never done this live. The guitarist is Jorn Viggo Lofstad from Pagan's Mind. You have seen Pagan's Mind lead singer, Nils K. Rue. He is one of the vocalists ,along with Floor, on Ayreon's The Day the World Breaks Down.

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

So cool! Thx for info! Be blessed - Suesue

[@CAP22]

They wrote the music for this album wayback in 2008, but they didn't get it recorded until 2017. He's Norwegian guitarist Jørn Viggo Lofstad of Pagans Mind.

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

He is unbelievable!! 💜💜💜

[@theglanconer6463]

Floor goes punk-rock :) So catchy (and God bless Lemmy, my very first concert when I was 14 or 15)

[@Zozo-K-]

I concur!

[@Monique-bx6ro]

I love this project from Floor and Jorn. She really can sing everything. 🤘😛

[@patverum9051]

If you watch After Forever, the guitar player who growls is Sander Gommans, Floor had a long relationship with him,is this song about that? They sang it in "Sing Meinem Song" it made Floor cry...

[@christinaalgate4899]

Floor shouldn't cry. It makes me sad when she does. There's a video of Lotte from Sing Meinen song where you see Floor 😢

[@clemenstremens1940]

There is another clip from this album: “Storm in a glass”, more ballad style, also very much worth watching. Also worth watching is guitarist Jörn Viggo’s band Pagan’s Mind, a Norwegian prog band. You have seen PM’s singer in Arjen Lucassen’s TDTTWBD: Nils K. Rue (the prophet). As for Floor and Jörn: talent smells talent🤓👸🇳🇱

[@eviljeep]

Wow! Never heard of this song yet! 👌 Tx from Québec Canada 🇨🇦 🤟

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

Isn’t it awesome ?!

[@eviljeep]

@@SueSueandthewolfman surprising! Floor can do anything. Airband too 😉😆

[@vlinder6329]

This is so different from 🌺 Floor's 🌺 usual work. Show how versatile she is. I love it ❤️🔥 Oh and Floor has so many solos sung...... AVE MARIA! Agape! Let it Go! The Phantom of the Opera! Shallow....💫 and so much more!!👌😇

[@RonniePeterson]

Floor does rock even when singing about something painful from her past.. The Northward album is varied but excellent. Any project/collaboration involving Floor is stunning. Evergrey and Soilwork are two worth investigating.

[@Lillywhite]

Lovely as ever.

[@Thorgrim247]

Floor also loves hard rock style music and this was her chance to do this different style. This was a collaboration with Jorn Viggo Lofstad from the Norwegian band, Pagan's Mind. What a sweet comment. I agree Wolfman! Inside and out! Love the shirt SueSue! Never stop Dreaming! I better get my Meds!

[@jimharris367]

Motorhead for life 🤘🤘🤘

[@randyboyles]

Nice side project for Floor. I knew you would like this one.

[@billmorrison8292]

Floor and Jørn Viggo Lofstad guitarist of Pagan's Mind decided they wanted to do a rock album. They completed it in 2007 but couldn't release it until 2017. Floor wrote this soon after a 7 year relationship broke up and explains her feelings at the end.

[@gbusse]

So Awesome! Thanks for doing this reaction. This is actually one of my favorite of Floor's non-Nightwish performances. I love the hard rockin guitars mixed with Floor's vocals. The way she adds attitude into the vocals just makes it awesome. I am not sure if you have done her version of Phantom of the Opera on Beste Zangers yet with Dutch Opera SInger, Henk Poort. If not you really need to check it out. Literally, this woman can sing anything she wants to without even breaking a sweat. Whenever I enjoy her performances, whether Nightwish or not, I always know that I am witnessing vocal greatness. Floor Jansen, the Viking Metal Princess 🤘

[@gigabyt74]

glad you loved it.......

[@paisa20]

Thanks, i love this song

[@MrFrikkenfrakken]

Good reaction to a good song. You be you that is the pleasure of watching each reaction. Cya next time ....

[@jasonmarshall7572]

Not sure if Floor wrote all the lyrics but Northward is a joint project. Floor started this before she was invited to join Nightwish but finished at a later date. Relationships are a fickle thing. But we lean on God us Christians but we also lean on each other but trust is a big thing and many of us don't always have the same ability to share what's on our minds or our feelings. And if your trust gets mocked or your words get shunted it's easy to lose trust to share your pain or feelings with that one you love. Sometimes you can lose interest in the one you love and grow apart but you can also fear to lose them. In the end to grow old hold their hand and know your with your best friend is all that really matters.

[@ericavantilburg6252]

Thank you for your great reaction! And such a good message: love other people, no matter which believe the other has... just be positive and good to others!❤️

[@German_1]

floor and Bjorn started this in 2002. they finally hooked up in 2018 to finish the album. the group name is northward, that's not part of the title. pretty good though!

[@seannightingale3571]

This is a great song that is often overlooked. This album has a few hidden gems.

[@majbrat]

It's such a down and dirty rock and roll song. So great. Love it!!!

Northward is a project between Floor and Pagan’s Mind guitarist John Viggo Lofstad. The whole album is great…just good straight ahead rock ‘n’ roll. Don’t change anything…I really enjoy you and your videos. My favorite Motörhead song: Metropolis. What’s yours?

Below is a list of possible videos to react to. I used the performances from around the time the albums came out, but there are more recent performances from the more recent shows like the one at the Whiskey A Go Go, so if you prefer that just search for it on their official KZbin channel. The nice thing is that none of the link below will not be blocked, except the 2 official videos from the unreleased as of yet 3rd album. I would recommend going through their albums chronologically to see their progress, but you can mix and match if you want, except for Queen Of The Murder Scene, which is a concept album, so I strongly recommend listening to these performances in order to fully appreciate the story.
