American Rapper FIRST time SEEING "NIGHTWISH" Story Time LIVE!

[@staffanhesselback9653]

Singers sing what they can, Floor sings what she wants ❤

[@jasonlove6931]

Underrated comment here

[@janihaavisto79]

Very much so. 😂

[@jpdemer5]

Especially true in the case of "Storytime" .... Anette could not touch those operatic high notes, and didn't even try - she just left it to the chorus. I'm wondering if Floor made the changes, or if this is what Tuomas had in mind all along.

[@CristyB66]

💯

[@KaiHellmann]

Yeah!

[@syntheticsleep]

So the Nightwish army tends to stay pretty respectful about Floor because she's a lady and deserves it. But don't get it twisted, EVERYONE'S definitely in love with her. You literally cannot watch an actual goddess move in the world and not be captured in every way possible, the whole package. So, yes, we're all smitten but we keep it on the reverent side. 🤘🔥🤘

She is maried to the drummer of Sabaton, which you must check out!

[@Drinckx2]

I'm sure Floor's fans, male and female, appreciate her beauty, but the main focus is her incredible voice, her stage presence and what a delightful, grounded person she is, especially considering her once in a millenium vocal talent.

[@henryvandenbrand5176]

Could not have said it better!

[@laudatosiadastra1218]

100%

[@syyneater]

Absolutely, sure she’s gorgeous, but it’s on so many levels (voice, humanity, humility, wife, mother, etc.), you can’t help but respect her.

[@MajrPayneNurAss2714]

I found NightWish some 12 years ago because I was looking for a band that sings Phantom of the Opera and low and behold ,I found Floor Jansen.and this band opened up a whole genre of music that i stumbled upon.and i was hooked.

[@GaryWain]

Floor is a Goddess,.we admire for afar.

Hi Black Pegasus, short story of the Nightwish singers: The first singer was Tarja Turunen who grew up in the small town of Kitee in Finland, along side Tuomas (keyboard and Composer) and Empuu (guitar). They played together from the start in 1996 until the end of 2005. The reason behind the let go of Tarja can be read in the open letter they gave her and also published to the fans and media. She got this after the final show of the End Of An Era tour in 2005. The replacement for Tarja was the Swedish singer Anette Olzon who came in with more of a poppy sound that fitted the music Tuomas wrote for her. She did not, in my opinion, deliver live as Tarja or Floor. I saw them live with Anette the summer of 2012. During the tour of 2012/2013 when on tour in the US, they had to rush Anette to hospital on the night of their show in Denver, October 28. That night they performed the show with the singers from the support band Kamelot and them selves. After that night they knew they had to make a change to keep Nightwish together, as they had struggled for a while with Anette. So they called Floor back in the Netherlands and asked if she could jump on a plane to fill in for the rest of the tour. She literally had 48 hours to fly to the US and learn the 15 songs on the setlist. They have a documentary of all this that you can find on YT called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours". The rest is, as Tuomas said himself, history. Here is a link to the open letter to Tarja, which together with the history is relevant before reacting to "The Poet And The Pendulum" Live from Wembley Arena 2015. He wrote that song so he got kill himself in the song instead of in real life. This due to the hate he received from both the fans and the media, even though the entire band stood behind the decision to let Tarja go. But please read the open letter to better understand the meaning and feeling behind the song The Poet And The Pendulum. The open letter: nightwish.fandom.com/wiki/Open_Letter_to_Tarja_Turunen "The Poet And The Pendulum" Live at Wembley Arena 2015: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGW5l6xrrqisY8Usi=MrdMEgoeFJqSQCka

[@larryhicks7683]

That was awesome how you put everything down for him. Great job sr.

[@Tarkus_]

As a big Nightwish and Floor fan, who happens to be male, I can honestly say that I haven't seen her sexualized a whole lot. The vast majority of comments are about her voice, stage presence and her humble personality. Even when talking about her appearance, it's usually about how bad-ass she looks. There are exceptions, of course, but not like what you might think. Most fans are very respectful.

[@RichFrye]

She is so humble and down to Earth.... it would tarnish her image to have corrupted thoughts about her..... there are plenty of women out there to objectify. I can separate thoughts and appreciate a woman without sexualizing her.... .... this is the one we can all agree has earned our respect as not just a talent but as a person... she is the polar opposite off stage as on but equally amazing

[@luisebritta6139]

I also perceive it like this (as a female fan though) but this is, of course, only what you see on the outside. I don't want to know how many creepy private messages she gets on her socials. There are several weird people out there.

[@Tarkus_]

@@RichFrye very well stated! 👍🤘

[@Tarkus_]

@@luisebritta6139 Yes, Simone Simons has talked (to Floor!) about some of the creepy comments she's gotten, though she said it's a very small minority. You know Floor gets the same thing, but thankfully these creeps are mostly overshadowed by respectful fans.

[@iordanisfra]

thats very accurate , exactly how i see her too , never sexualized . She is what everyone wants from a female artist , badass stage presence , super humble and low profile person, GOAT voice ... and not that boobas and "let me show you my ass" female singers music nowadays are full off...

[@Alithia451]

Wise decision to do more Nightwish.

[@jpsother1183]

Floor's beauty is is because it is far more than skin deep. She is just as lovely deep inside, and it shows. This Story is about the Start Of All Stories (and Art). It was the night before When all through the world No words, no dreams, then one day A writer by a fire Imagined all of Gaia Took a journey into a child-man's heart A painter on the shore Imagined all the world Within the snowflake on his palm A dream of poetry A canvas of awe Planet Earth falling back into the stars

[@zabaduveto3038]

Saw them last December and had a pretty drunk giy standing close by telling us how much he adores her voice and her presence. When Nighwish started the show he looked as if he saw a godess decending right in front of him. Eyes shining and so in awe. His buddies made fun of him and asked if he had forgotten his wife and he was: Yeah, she knows and she agrees. So even piss drunk fans remain very respectful of her.

[@merqury5]

That's a funny and great story

[@wynandmorgan9985]

Floor is a goddess! No debate...

[@ascensionenergetics85]

I think Floor has many male & female admirers. It comes with the Goddess thing..

[@johnmc128]

Good one. Took you long enough, where's your buddy ? You can't not see her beauty nothing wrong with that. Wacken 2013 was Floor's introduction to the European fans as the new singer, its been all smiles since.

[@jonathanlocke6404]

How many are in love with her? All of us...

[@redangel169]

Male or female we are all enamored and bewitched by our Valkyrie.

[@mariastelacampi1758]

AND I AGREEE 😊😅❤

[@Magyarkhan]

[@steve6908]

Still missing out on “Ever Dream” from this same live. That’s gotta be the next one

[@anitabons6034]

I think you should do: "Dreamflight"by AfterForever (Floor's 1st band) and "Disdain" by Revamp (her 2nd band) and "Sancta Terra" by Epica with Floor

[@grahambuddery172]

One of the best comments I read about Nightwish (and I will add Floor), is that there are two types of people in the world. Those that love Nightwish, and those that have never heard them. Respect

[@pauloverbeeke2352]

Also, Check EPICA ! begin with: "Sancta terra" Live Retrospect show! Simone (the lead singer of Epica is doing a duet with FLOOR ! Epic is a Dutch band.... Also do more of Ayreon ! Then you wil see more Floor and Simone !

[@JanneTarhanen]

BP: How many men adore Floor? Men: YES

[@nekane6168]

women: YES All LGTB+: YES

[@JAIJ47]

Hey BP. Still really loving the Nightwish and Rammstein reactions you've been posting, especially with your format of revisiting performances with various different people of different backgrounds. I really think that adds something new and unique when it comes to reaction content (at least I've personally not seen that done that I can recall). I'd really recommend getting Sabaton in your line up at some point though. Floor's husband, Hannes Van Dahl, is the Drummer for them and they're a Swedish Metal Band that primarily write songs based upon historical events so if you're interested in History, they are a must to listen to. My recommendations (in no particular order) would be En Livstid I Krieg (Live - The Great Tour - Gothenburg) with English subtitles, Christmas Truce, 40-1 Live at Woodstock 2012, Bismarck, and 1916 (Motorhead Cover). There are plenty of other gems to listen to in addition to these but those are just ones I'd recommend as a must

[@dragonfire1842]

You have to do Romantacide and Song Of Myself with guest.

[@SuperMoofie]

Just a note - she wasn't married when she did the Wacken concert. To my knowledge she hadn't then met Hannes van Dahl (Sabaton drummer), her now husband. Floor is the total package - she has everything, and I think that most guys (and gals), acknowledge her beauty and style, which is simply overawed by her voice, and stage presence; her 6' 1 height only adds to her goddess-like stature. People generally are very respectful, even tho many guys have mentioned they'd marry her in a heartbeat :) I think we all know that your comments, and theirs, are not meant disrespectfully. It has to be acknowledged that she is indeed a woman of many fine attributes and talents, and she has worked very hard to perfect her vocal abilities, and look after herself, as her career is quite a demanding one :)

[@IgoZoom1]

Dude, I'm gay and my feelings for Floor make me question that! She is EVERYTHING- her charisma, her beauty, the way she moves....I'm pretty sure she's supernatural!

[@mking846]

She is a Valkyrie goddess

[@kraZkins007]

Love Nightwish!!! Floor has such a magical voice! I was coming to see if you had ever reacted to Ri-rez and tommy vex Big Brother- I now the “tube” demonetized his video when it came out a few months ago and it seems to slowly gaining traction finally- and didn’t know if I missed you doing it- And then BAM! I see that in all the craziness of being on a post lockdown with a school full of middle schoolers for 5 hours and the insanity of the it the next day- taking the weekend to be with my own kids and quality family bonding- I hope on you tube tonight! AND I missed you dropping Nightwish!

[@stevenlemons2602]

great reaction, man. I love Nightwish. Best to you.

[@naruto9121983]

of course Floor is amazingly beautiful but most Floor fans loves her like a human being. for example i really love her for being such a good human and so down to earth. i love her because she really heals my heart with her voice. if you see some videos she has on her channel about her personal life she lives in a farm outside of the city with her family and she is so kind. i will always love her because she really saved my life without knowing and many Floor fans will tell you many stories how she save their lives too. she is a gift in this world🥰

[@konikoniorden7097]

after she fought breast cancer they kept touring and did a last appearance while she was heavily pregnant in greece she was awesome. Total Warrior.

[@anne-marievandruenen600]

I was lucky enough to see many concerts of Floor's first band After Forever, and she would often mingle with the fans after the concert. She is the sweetest, most humble, down to earth person you'll ever meet. It is impossible not to admire her. 🙂

[@mariogansbeke]

There are a lot of female reactors who have a crush on Floor too. It's not only her male fans. Yes, she is stunning, yes she has the presence, yes she is a queen, yes she is extremely humble and down to earth, but above all she is an amazing singer.

[@Scape_TEST]

Nightwish did actually make a movie called Imaginerum and this was actually on the soundtravk ....as for singer history....thats a long story

[@alleninfinity6730]

Floor is a beautiful woman inside and out, but in my particular case, I see me as being unworthy of her. I don't feel that of any other female on the earth. The more I get to know Floor, the more humbled I am by her. She is awesome in many ways, and in my opinion the greatest voice I have ever heard. Complete respect for her and her husband Hannes.

[@Frostrazor]

I love her beauty. Fascinated by her presence. Bow to her greatness. But mostly in love with her voice.

[@Skybolt211]

Man, BP, you need to watch Romanticide or Song of Myself from this same concert. They make Story Time feel like a lullaby.

[@PaulOutdoors]

All three wonderful Nightwish leading ladies were/are of their time and essential to the evolution of the band. For me though Tuomas found his shangri-la when Floor joined Nightwish. She has it all. Thank you for a great reaction. 🙏😊👍❤️

[@christomashofski9160]

You asked about the story... This is the first main track on the album Imaginaerum (originally titled Imaginarium but altered at the last minute, most likely at the behest of the band's lawyers in deference to any potential copyright claims that may or may not have arisen in the future) which goes with a feature-length professionally scripted, acted, and filmed movie of the same name. As such, the whole album links together as a themed story. It tells the tale of an elderly songwriter named Thomas Whitman (after Tuomas, the keyboardist himself and Walt Whitman, one of his favorite authors). Whitman is on his death bed in a comatose state, reliving his entire life from childhood on in his dreams. The ups and downs of life are likened, metaphorically, to a dark and sinister amusement park/carnival. The opening track is a Finnish lullabye (sung in Finnish) where Whitman is an infant being rocked to sleep in the arms of his father. Then it breaks into this song, Storytime, celebrating the wonder and innocence of the inner child in all of us, lost to the tribulations of adulthood as we age yet still buried in our hearts, yearning to be born once again (hence the Peter Pan reference in the chorus). If you do the rest of the Imaginarium album, I'd enjoy recapping what each subsequent track represents in the story line.

[@scottclark3761]

Shorty....heh. I bet it's been a while since anyone referred to Floor ar Shorty. She's 6'1". Yes, Floor is beautiful. But for most of us, she's our Valkyrie. Like a force of nature. We're all kinda in love with her, but definitely from afar. Could you imagine getting into an argument with her and she lets out that scream right in your face? Your face would melt like Raiders of the Lost Ark. It'd be like dating a hurricane. No, for most of us it's more platonic than that. She's beautiful, but her talent is more so.

[@GryLi]

7 Days to the Wolves next PLEASE, almost all male reactors fall in love with her.

[@Un0rdin4rYPr0gr4mmeR]

My man, I'm an old fan of Nightwish and I listened to Floor when she was still part of After Forever. I'm personally a married man with 2 kids and I still love Floor. She is a stunning and a beautiful woman. I don't see a problem with acknowledging someone's beauty 🤷. And that beauty comes with God given vocals which in addition takes Floor's charisma out of this world. Definitely a great reaction. Best regards from Croatia 🤘

[@hyperM09]

Hey Nightwish-Fan here (since 2001) Yes you are right. Floor is the 3rd singer. The first was Tarja Turunen (in 1996)who started the opera thing. Then they kicked out because personal issues (there was an open letter to the fans). Then came Anette Olzon. She is a very good singer, but had some problems to sing the old songs on live concerts. I was there, it’s true. Then she get ill during the tour in 2012/2013, and Floor jumped in (that’s the official version 🤫). And Floor was amazing. Wacken (2013) was one of her first concerts with Nightwish. You see what’s happend. 🤘. I like all of them. Because every one has there own era. The song storytime is the beginning of a story. The album „imaginaerum“ is the soundtrack to a self produced movie with the same name (by Nightwish). I‘m happy to see all of them live. Last time i saw floor here in Berlin singing songs of her solo career, full pregnant. No kidding. She is amazing. I give her much respect for her work. But the mastermind behind Nightwish is Tuomas Holopainen (the guy performing the keyboards).

[@PhilAlumb]

Floor is 💥✨🔥

[@Alithia451]

Next: Ever dream, all 3 versions of Phantom of the opera, then Epica feat. Floor - Sancta terra live. You have seen Simone in Ayreon. Evanescence; Bring me to life, My immortal. Btw, Storytime was a song for the second singer Anette. If you want to check out her version it has to be ths video version.

[@enragedbutterfly]

The Valkyrie goddess is treated respectfully as far as I’ve ever seen. We know she’s stunning, but we love her for what she gives the music and the fans. Namely, the best Nightwish experience possible with a human voice. No shade toward previous leading ladies.

[@kezca]

More nightwish please x

[@sturmstug]

You asked how many are attracted to Floor? Everyone, you included.

[@robertduval5343]

Happily married for many years, and yes I have an admiring crush on floor. She has made me cry, she has made me laugh. Heck inspired me enough, I would follow her into war like the Valkyrie she is. But what I see mostly is a powerful women whose stage brand is charisma, storytelling, and proud feminity. She does not sound nor try to sell sexuality. I would also state that as a father of a daughter, Floor is one heck of a role model to look up to.

[@majbrat]

Stunning, every time.

[@goranelez9956]

I think this song is about POV from the Story itself, if it was an entity, at least I got that from the lyrics, which is creative if true. About Floor's looks, other aspects are better than her beauty: color of her voice makes people cry, stage presence is perfection, versatility in genres she can pull off at high level is unmatched, ability to believably convey feelings from the song to the audience, memory for lyrics (she did so many songs with her bands, so many colabs and almost none of those are mainstream drivel, but demanding poetry), her character as a person, work ethics and who knows what, all before her appearance.

[@wayneccj0710]

To answer your question. I like her personality, I am in love with her singing, and I don't care what she looks like because she is married & I respect that. I honestly hope she will never be single again, but if I had met her back when she was still single, & if she was interested, I would have enjoyed an evening with her.

[@kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038]

I am a huge fan of Floor since her early days just before year 2000 - in her After Forever days. She has always been a natural beauty, and in her younger days, she could sometimes bee more sexy or flirting on stage - until she started singing - and then you just disappeared into the stories she told. Both her and her close friend Simone Simons (Epica), are very aware of their stage presence - and they both deliver the full package, meaning something for the eyes, something for the ears, something for the mind and something for the imagination. But they never overdo anything, but gives you the ultimate storytelling each time. The first Nightwish singer Tarja Turunen wanted to leave the band, because she wanted to have a solo career, and therefore Nightwish and her seperated in 2005 (in a bad handled way). The second Nightwish singer Anette Olzon, didn't have the chemistry and she couldn't continue performing, during a world tour in September 2012 - and Nightwish called Floor to step in as a temporary lead singer. At that time Floor had been absent from the stage for 18 months due to a serious burn out. But she said yes - jumped on a plane to the US, learned the setlist and stepped in as lead singer - all this in less than 48 hours...... There is a documentary about this called 'learn the setlist in 48 hours'. Already after the first couple of months during the world tour, everyone knew that this was the match made in heaven, and during the dummer 2013, Floor got the papers - and it was officially announced in October 2013, that Floor was Nightwish's new lead singer. And then the real Nightwish evolution started...... Storytime is about never forgetting to use your imagination, no matter age.

[@jeffhall2411]

there is an online documentary, i think its 48 hours to learn setlist or something like that.. about how floor got to be the "front woman"

[@zbygniewprlwytzkofsky6614]

For worshippers of a goddess there is no sexual component, just awe😇

[@SuperMoofie]

I think her physical attractiveness cannot go unnoticed, but because she has such magnetism, the admiration goes far beyond a basic level into higher realms.

[@littlemouse7066]

She looks and acts like a serious woman (differently from so many female singers who use their body to attract the audience) so she's treated with respect (unless you are a sexual maniac) because she deserves respect.

[@truckinleprechaunscottcask9747]

[@NinoMit87]

For female singer reaction I recommend Simone Simons from Epica. Either with 'Beyond the matrix' or 'Unleashed'.

[@tubelious]

Nightwish started out as a purely "operatic / symphonic metal" group, with Tarja singing purely in operatic style. That was already quite popular, but for me it always seemed a bit gimmicky. With Tarja the band grew and evolved, but they were always tied to doing just songs for that operatic singing style. When Marco, joined in as the bass player, he brought in a ton of variation possibilities, as he already was very skilfull singer, and they started to do harmonies and duets. Tarja became a diva, didn't want to tour anymore and was planning on going solo, so the band made decision to relieve her. Then came in Anette, she was a lot more poppy singer, and with her they made this album. I think it was something Tuomas, as a song writer needed to balance his output. But things didn't work out so well with Anette, and as she got health problems they had to get someone to fill in for the tour.. Enter Floor.. and the rest is history. I've seen and heard the band from the very beginning, and for me with Floor the band was 100% for the first time ever.

[@RuthlessBiscuit3]

I have seen Nightwish several times, with all 3 vocalists over the years. Each time they delivered a performance with the impact of an atomic bomb. Great reaction BP. Thank you 🤘🤘

[@Goran1138]

I like such live versions of those songs, because you can feel those resonance between music band on scene and crowd of listeners. When you catch it, you feel a real magic Nightwish is not unique at this point, but this performance one of the best examples of it

[@imrehundertwasser7094]

Yes, there are people singing in the background :-) Those singers are not on stage for this performance, but it's a real choir which they recorded for the album version of this song, just like they recorded the orchestral instruments you can hear (violins etc.) with a real orchestra. For live performances, they take those audio tracks of the orchestra and choir, play them and then add their own instruments and voices live. That means they need to be very accurate and in sync, which they achieve with a click track they have in their in-ears. Tuomas, the keyboarder and composer of Nightwish, is a fan of movie composer Hans Zimmer, so it's not a coincidence that Nightwish songs sound like movie soundtracks.

[@CristyB66]

It’s gothic and symphonic metal 🫶🏻💜 You have to cover Floor and Henk Poort singing ‘Phantom of the Opera’ live. If you really want to understand Floor Jansen’s voice, please consider covering the version of the Dutch TV show ‘Beste Zangers’ from 2019, where Floor sings like an angel and Henk… well look into it.

Hey Black Pegasus I have a recommendation for a band. You should react too a Swedish Power Medal band called Sabaton. Floor’s husband is the drummer for the band and boy do they bring a live show and their music videos are telling a story and you can tell how much love they put into their music and music videos. They deal with historical battles,people or events but definitely would recommend them.

[@kevinlove2002]

Bro, she's our age... And bluntly, just an opinon, YES she is the best. In my opinion here is the bands gtowth, and yes I have known of Nightwish since 1996. They progression as far as vocals went something like this... BLEH, Meh, OMG! Tarja was a flavor but you have to respect it because it was the birth of what they are today. Annette, was better but still not right. Floor completed the band and elevated them to GOAT status. Now I know there are fans that disagree and all, bla bla bla, the simple truth is that the band was in its best form from this show in 2013 until 2020 covid hit... This is to date their best era.

Floor is FLOOR. On Stage a beast, but outside a grounded and humble Person. (Her Wolf and her Dog)🤘

[@robertcorrell4506]

As alluded to earlier, she does not "sell" her beauty to attract fans. Everyone agrees she is beautiful inside and out, but it is her way with the songs, many of which were written for the previous singers, that have endeared her to the masses. And yes, she is totally BADASS!

But she is just such an outstanding person in so many ways (personality, vocal ability, stage presence, physical attractiveness) that it is hard not to want to have a personal (but not romantic) relationship with her.

Looks, love. Personality, love. Presence, love. Voice...cant say love as thats an understatement, but theres really no word to describe it. Except Floorgasmic. Fallen asleep to her voice at least 3x a week since she took over. And 1x a week or so since mid '97(first time i heard)

Tarja and Floor is very good. Anette was very very good ❤

[@donepearce]

During this concert, virtually none of the audience had seen Floor before. This was essentially her final audition. She did OK.

❤🤘🎶

Don't know how many times I've listened to this song; but, it feels like they perform 3-4 act plays and each movement is a quest for the chorus. And it's a fun journey getting there.

[@NZWozza]

Haha if you like songs that tell stories, there are a couple of big Nightwish ones to do after doing a couple more of their other songs.

[@ChrisDicksonOhio]

[@silviaestrella8074]

Con todos mis respetos.....yo escuché esta version de Floor antes de oir a Annete...... Y me dio la risa 😂😂😂😂😂 La potencia y la fuerza de Floor la hacen increible❤

[@davidlagassee8236]

you might be ready now for epica featuring floor singing SANCTA TERRA then watch epica. the lead guitarist was floor's guitarist in her band and the singerhas been friends with floor for years. she was floor's student i think. if you like nightwish you will like epica.

This is our Valkyrie Goddess for you. And you witnessed first hand a "Dutch Windmill" , and to finish you off, The Operatic "Cruise Missile" !!!! Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bull whip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Awesome tune , although it is kind of a pop/rockish sound (originally sung by Anette, the second singer of Nightwish), but Floor gave it soooo much POWER !!! Including this "Operatic" part, what was originally done by children's choir because vocal limitations on their second singer (Great singer also, I might add), but Floor has none of that "Limit". Nightwish lyrics are often a bit interpretive, and not as "straight forward" as many other bands, because Tuomas ( The Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen: founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish.) prefers people to put their own interpretations and life experiences into the lyrics. you connect with songs on a personal level when there is something there that relates to things you have gone/are going through, and you may even find new connections later on in life when you have gone through other big events/emotions. there might be songs you are quite indifferent about (oh, nice song) and then you go through something big and all of a sudden it makes you break down in tears because now you relate to something in the lyrics you didn't before, and see it from a whole new perspective. imagination and life experiences are powerful, and Tuomas has great appreciation of this. NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
