Rappers React To Nightwish "The Greatest Show On Earth"!!!

[@Hollywood6IX]

So apparently we missed the last part of this video. Again we don't pre watch anything and the video came directly from the comments section. So sorry about this. Either way this was AMAZING!!! WE LOVE THE NIGHTWISH ARMY!!!

[@thensho]

please watch the complete version as well, after the part where this video end you get to hear the remaining part of this song. at the same time you get to see the band and crowd interact, as the last part of the song is used as an outro to the concert

[@paisa20]

Thanks for taking the time, greetings from Colombia

[@vogel2280]

Immediately when you said: "this is 17 minutes long"....that cant't be right...It should be longer. This is what you missed: "We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born The potential people who could have been here in my place But who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA So massively exceeds the set of actual people In the teeth of those stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds How dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state From which the vast majority have never stirred?" "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers Having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one And that whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity From so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been And are being, evolved"

[@treavorrichards1900]

You’re wearing an Acid Bath shirt..shit yeah... You really need to check into them but they are hard to find, especially on KZbin.

[@frankmerris8821]

Tuomas the guy on keyboard believe it or not writes and composes almost alL of these songs. the man is literally a GENIUS

[@drew65sep]

Absolutely he is...one hell of a creative mind.

[@kristaspecht]

Yes!!

[@anrakspumante5958]

Yes! Tuomas is the modern Mozart! His songwriting and lyrics are phänomenal!

[@deed5811]

Metal Mozart

[@rocklobster532]

He ranks with the best of them including Pink Floyd.

[@Wollie1979]

Fun fact: Floor’s parents were at this show too…watching proudly how her beautiful daughter did this legendary show with her brothers 😎🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@ChristopherStendeck]

What monster cut the video short right there? The most moving, spine-tingling, thought-provoking part of the whole thing was just about to happen. I actually gasped that it ended like that.

[@Drinckx2]

Thanks for the comments about the cutting of the video: it saves me having to watch it and be disappointed by their editing.

[@NetAndyCz]

@@Drinckx2 It may not be their editing, there are some villains out there who uploaded the song without the ending.

[@SunOfTheSun]

Chill out

Whoever did this is not in Heaven.

[@eddiecreutzburg7375]

The drummer is Kai aka the Human Metronome Troy is the Bard Emmpu is the Electric Hobbit Marko is the Viking Tuomas is called the Metal Mozart and last but not least The Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy Floor 😇😈😇😈😇😈😈 Hail Nightwish Great reaction guys.

[@jasonnewman3355]

This song is based on the book of the same name by Richard Dawkins about evolution and dawn of life. The brief spoken word part in the middle of the song was actually his voice. As someone mentioned below they actually had Dawkins at a different show come out on stage and deliver the closing spoken words (take directly from the book) in person.

[@lekalla]

More like inspired by the book than based.

[@IvysPoison1987]

it was the sweetest thing when dawkins talked about it, he was so nervous because hed never been in front of that many people before.

[@Trevor21230]

The closing words are actually from the closing of Darwin's _On the Origin of Species;_ "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers having been originally breathed into a few forms, or into one, and that while this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, endless forms most beautiful, and most wonderful, have been, and are being, evolved"

[@kristaspecht]

That is beautiful and friggin' badass!!! The set,the instruments,and voices! Wish I were there to see that in person!! Great choice guys! Awesome! Thankyou!💜🤓

[@Klojum]

"How is she not sweating?" That is what the Floor Fan in front of her is for.

[@Fmanzo10]

I see what you did there…. Or did you??????😲

[@christomashofski9160]

She has 20,000 floor fans down there! :)

[@missrubyphoenix]

I just love how Marko goes: "Tuomas Holopainen" with such pride and respect and Tuomas just smiles shyly lol he is amazing as he is humble :) Oh and then Floor comes out like the goddess she is, mother earth, Gaia herself

[@scifimonkey3]

The story of evolution is ‘ The greatest show on Earth’ that they are talking about. Unfortunately you pulled the song 2/3 of the way through including the main spoken element from Richard Dawkins whose book the song was based on which came in the next section. That may have helped you to understand it better.

[@Sinvare]

We were here! Side note, there is a spoken part after the end of the song when they take their bows that is part of the song. The version in Wembley 2015 has the speaker live on stage instead of recorded. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6OwqKubZ96Ua6c should be right before it starts.

[@lukeriley8149]

When it comes to "who is symphonic metal", there is the Holy Trinity, Nightwish, Epica and Within Tenptation. Great video.

[@metalguru85]

Walking into a new town in Final Fantasy is the best description 🤣 'Odin' has temporarily stepped down from the band following mental health issues he had during lockdown 😞 And only Nightwish would use fireworks as an instrument.

[@kristaspecht]

Nightwish always gets me moving! It's 6am and i got my coffee and y'all and moving in my seat over here! Lol

[@samhor33]

it must be an AMAZING experience to watch them live, one song from them is like some other bands whole concert.

[@black4pienus]

I always get goosebumps with that 'we were here' part. Too bad you didn't hear the last 5 minutes since you reacted to the cut version, but you heard the song at least.

[@ToniKainulainen75]

Hello hello there guys nice reaction 👍 Glad that you liked this track, greetings from Finland 🇫🇮

[@chrisowen3231]

Guys, please please do the Nightwish cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes from their End of An Era performance. "Odin" (Marko) sings it and he is fantastic. I think you would dig it.

[@barbaravance6774]

This !!!⬆️ I absolutely love this song!

[@pdutchie4924]

O yes please, one of my favorite Nightwish performances ❣️

[@HallifaxCloud]

I didn't even get through 2 seconds before I auto liked the vid😂😂 love nightwish to pieces and this is one of my all time favs! If want to hear Marko (Odin) a bit more check out his feature song The Islander from that same concert:)

[@Hollywood6IX]

Much love my friend

[@luciedimitrov1987]

it´s so good to see a rappers, how they enjoing a metal songs!

[@majbrat]

There are so many great Nightwish songs you guys have not heard yet. Hope you keep reacting to them.

[@paulwren8504]

Just revisited your reaction after 2 years. You guys really crack me up. Love ya 😂😂😂😂

[@hextatik_sound]

Love your Acid Bath shirt! Now I have to put When the Kite String Pops on the plate. Can't remember when was the last I listened to it.

[@adypendlebury3975]

If you REALLY want to hear the bassist sing check out The Islander live in Tampere

[@ryant3600]

or their cover of Pink Floyds High Hopes.

[@verahamoen2742]

Or him with the rest of The Northern Kings. Great Collab of great metal singers.

[@patverum9051]

Country with the highest density of Metal bands is Finland. Some top bands like Epica and Within Temptation from The Netherlands are worth checking out too.

[@kristaspecht]

Yes most definatley

[@Assel55]

Thank you for this reaction. If you wanna hear „Odin“ Marcos full potential, please react to „High Hopes“ and „The Beauty and the Beast“ . First one is Nightwishs tribute to Pink Floyd and second one is a duet with Tarja, the first singer of Night.

[@ralfmeyer9086]

I mean Tuomas is Odin(Wotan) and Floor is Thor. Hihihi 😊😅🍷 Grüsse von Dümmer See.

[@wojciechpedzich4773]

You made the correct assumption. You did go through all the history of our world. From the Big Bang, through forming of the Earth "in the Goldilocks hair", the appearance of life, humans, all the way to "self destructive weaponry" to just the memory - yep, we were here. What a closer of a show, eh? Love the reaction, guys.

[@MichalMittermayr]

" I love you boys!": Very less people know what a Backpipe is❤.

[@marja-leenalampinen5135]

It is actually the Irish wind pipe. The main difference between Irish wind pipe and Scottish back pipe is in air supply, sound and range. So they are actually two different instruments.

[@MichalMittermayr]

@marja-leenalampinen5135 Olinien Pipe!

[@tjuba1955]

You are so damn good guys, I just love you and even more that you like Nightwish who are my angels and companions in life. love you

[@Lannisen]

Only 17 minutes? That's the shortened version, without the end credits and last spoken words! It's supposed to be over 20 minutes 😅 Great reaction though, you definitely got the theme of the song!

[@Flyingtom80]

Marko was a lead singer of he's own band and he has solo album also, he can sing!

[@jahrolo]

Marko is a trained singer and guitarist. You´ve probably seen him with Tarja singing "The Phantom of the Opera". And if not, check it out ASAP ;) "The Islander" live in Tampere would be also great, it´s Marko on lead vocals :)

[@joshuastout5375]

Great reaction fellas! You always start my day off right. Think you could throw " I Prevail - Gasoline " on your list? Keep up the great reactions! TTFL! (Trash Talker for Life)

....And now this !!!... I love you boys :))))). From Norway :)

[@ServantOfOdin]

Y'all need to look up Marko Hietala, the male singer. He has a band of his own, Tarot, which he formed with his brother back in '86..... His father was a musical teacher, so music runs in his blood naturally. Add that to decades of musical experience...

[@gonzalomartinezmetalhead]

Therion, swedish band basically created symphonic metal. They started as a death metal band in 1987 and over the years changed the music into what is known as symphonic metal. Along with Nightwish they are the 2 biggest bands of this genre.

[@shikamatsushima2977]

Yes, Therion are not given enough love in the reaction scene (so far) 🔥

[@shikamatsushima2977]

There is a song by Therion titled Tuonela, that is sung by Marco and it is beautiful 💙

[@masterrubyan2976]

You forget Epica...

[@hakimug]

How do we classify epic a and delain

[@gonzalomartinezmetalhead]

@@hakimug, Epica and Delain are also both symphonic metal, with Delain having a gothic influence as well.

Kai Hahto is one of the best drummers at the moment. He comes from the band Wintersun. At the moment also Jukka Koskinen plays (instead of Marco) as bass player for Nightwish. He also plays for the band Wintersun. An absolute drumming perfomence of Kai is from Wintersun 'Sons of Winter and Stars' live rehearsal at Sonic Pump Studio. Absolutely recommend this song to react. You will be blown away! Greetings from Switzerland.

[@gustavorosales8851]

You are spectacular. I love how they react to your videos, know that.

Nightwish songs you need to listen to: - Yours is an empty hope - Song of myself - Everdream You will not regret it but then again, it’s Floor you won’t really regret listening to anything she does.

Stuff like let it go from frozen, alone originally by Heart, Dangerous game which is from the Jekyll and Hyde musical, and many more. She also was on beste zangers which is a dutch TV show and sang Shallow (lady Gaga), Phantom of the Opera, and a lot other songs including one in Spanish and Vilja Lied is an operatic song in German if I remember correctly.

Guys, I am not sure if you already know them, but Blind Guardian is a german epic metal band, singing in English, with a male singer, which is pretty awesome too. 🤓And having a crush on Floor is absolutely understandable and definitely inevitable when you still alive😁😍she's a Valkyre with an Angel's voice 😍😍I wish you had picked the gig in Wembley, with Richard Dawkins. You would have been even more impressed and excited. Cause you missed the most important part of the song, which would change your mind about life.
