REACTION - Nightwish - 'High Hopes' - Live in Finland

My first time reacting to Nightwish - 'High Hopes' - Live in from the 'End of an Era' concert in Helsinki. Big fan of Pink Floyd and the original so I did indeed have High Hopes for this.

Nightwish doesn't consider this a cover,they call it a tribute. Amazing band.

Never mind, you beat him to it. I still want to know where you got it from.

[@bridgetmccracken1381]

No shame in saying that you prefer this version over Floyd's because you are so not alone. Nightwish took it to another level and it is amazing!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Glad I'm not alone! Thank you. 😁

[@jukkahelminen9071]

@@ThomFoolery1 You really aren’t alone, there are many of us who think NW did this better! Nightwish is a special band about it, they can make a cover of a song and most of the time it sounds better than the original. There's that Nightwish magic! And it just takes your soul and mind, on a journey somewhere!

[@margaretgreen5263]

Jukka Helminen Tuamos actually said that this was not so much a cover as a tribute to Floyd, which I think is a beautiful thing! . Love this version and I still love Pink Floyd’s original as well.

it's my opinion, nothing more ... the best live band on the fucking planet ... great reaction, genuine and real..thanks bro

[@ArumesYT]

In this genre perhaps. It's hard to compare across different genres. For instance I love Pink Martini live, but for me it's impossible to say which band is better.

[@ChrisPage68]

@@ArumesYT Nightwish transcend genre. They are superb by any standard you could apply. This lineup (the current) simply has NO weak link.

[@ArumesYT]

@@ChrisPage68 Yeah yeah, I get the fanboyism, I love Nightwish too. Can you spot a weak link in Pink Martini's lineup? Can you tell me which band is better at live performances? I can't.

To try to copy the song would be ludicrous ...Nightwish took this song and made it their own ..what a wonderful tribute to a legendary band ..NAILED IT !!

[@technewsfortechnoobs]

The fact that David Gilmour has this video linked on his homepage should say EVERYTHING about this tribute to them! This is as great a tribute to Pink Floyd as Disturbed's "Sound of Silence" was to Simon & Garfunkle.

[@greeniesr]

I'm 76 years old, and of course Pink Floyd has always been my favorite band. BUT 3 years ago while surfing You Tube channels, I came upon a band called Nightwish, you can say I was hooked. Nightwish, which to me has the 5 most talented musicians, (as a group) I've ever listened to....

Here here John. I agree, both amazing in their own way. As long as there's metal, we're happy.

[@larryd4352]

Nightwish took one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs, and they turned it into the best "Tribute" songs ever. Jukka on the drums was fabulous, he has so much passion! Tuomas...he amazes me every time! Emppu....I have seen reaction channels where the "experts" say that they could replace him with a 15 year old boy who is taking lessons from them! They obviously have never seen this tribute by Nightwish! Emppu is brilliant! Marco...what can I say that hasn't been said already? He is fabulous!

[@MissIssay]

I can't watch this without shivers going down my spine every single time. And let's just add that this show was taped on October 21, 2005. The day after that, on 22nd, Nightwish published the open letter in which they parted ways with Tarja - which means they recorded the show when most of the band knew what was going to happen, and still managed to give their all (for the last time together) and keep it together at the same time. True pros. Great reaction, I really enjoyed it!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Wow, that's a good point! I need to watch it again, knowing that! So much raw emotion. Thanks so much, see you in the next one! 😁

[@ChrisPage68]

@@ThomFoolery1 It is a lament for the good years they had with Tarja.

[@williamthomas7509]

I just rewatched his reaction and while scrolling noticed your comment. I think the emotions ... they knew that she would be given the letter after the show and it would be public the next day ... actually added a lot to the raw performance. The song fit the developing situation. As you mentioned to be able to nail this was a tribute to their professionalism, how they all felt both about Pink Floyd and frankly Tarja - no one was happy what it had come to. Anyone who's ever listened to Poet n Pendulum knows how deeply it affected Toumas. I will admit I'm a bit more of a fan of Floor's style, but damn it Tarja is so good too! And now of course we are a year into Marko stepping away with no word yet if he will come back - I suspect he isn't going to but perhaps another 6 months to year from now he will be refreshed and wanting to get back out. The problems he has voiced have not changed ... all the demands put on them. Expectations for appearances, social media and so forth and in many ways giving up control of their lives for long periods of time. Hoping Marko and everyone out there is taking care of themselves.

One of the best reactions to this song I’ve seen 👍 Only in recent months after watching reaction videos to one of my all time favourites high hopes I’ve stumbled on comments and reactions to this tribute. Over the years I’ve recalled seeing the screenshots/ recommendation to this track in my feed but never bothered watching it. My loss, as this is one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen and their take on high hopes absolutely stunning. If anyone reads this learn from my mistake and always be open to different genres or interpretations of your favourite tracks and give them a listen.

[@permanentrushmusic]

That's an appropriate reaction to this masterpiece 💥👍 Thank you very much!

[@damienmaynard8892]

Marko had a botched throat surgery and is lucky to be able to speak let alone sing. Emppu shines in this song. THE Electric Hobbit definitely paid tribute to Dave Gilmour here and put his own tweaks into the solos. Love this performance.

[@Duskwind_]

I think the lesson here is never challenge Nightwish to a battle of the bands, even if you're Pink Floyd. I loved the original, but Nightwish totally owned this song. Even David Gilmour says he loves this version.

[@MG-Nordster]

Biggest Pink Floyd fan here, i just got turned on to this version. It blew me away, similar to getting blown away by Dark Side of the Moon. Mystical/magical intense experience. I may never be able to play the Floyd version again. This is INTENSE.

Long time Pink Floyd fan here. I stumbled across Nightwish a few years ago. When I found out Nightwish did a tribute to High Hopes, I was expecting to not like it. However, Nightwish knocked it out of the park. I thoroughly enjoy both versions of this song.

[@phils866]

I agree with you, and I never thought I would be saying this, but I think Nightwish improved on the original, which I also love. As I have posted elsewhere, you could be forgiven for thinking this was written specifically for Marko's voice, so good are his vocals. And those solos from Empuu - sublime. Yukka, as always, playing with his usual fervor, and all held together by Tuomas, the master of the keys. What a performance!

[@ThomFoolery1]

Well said Philip!

[@timometsanoja9666]

Tuomas has said that this isn't really a cover song of the original, but more of a tribute to it and Pink Floyd... So he threw his magic dust on it and we get this awesome song!

This is a 15 year old cover, of course without Floor and since the end of this Concert without Tarja and the end of the "End of an era"-tour. While they playing High Hopes she's changing her wardrobe Backstage. After this Concert the Band handed over THE LETTER to Tarja. Look into their faces. They all are so serious, Jukka had (allegedly) strong migraine, Marko were sick and Thomas looks like he doesn't know how or if the band will further continue. High Hopes is the apt title at this moment. And so they played the best PF cover ever .
