WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME? Ex Metal Elitist Reacts to Nightwish "Romanticide"

Maybe at one point of my musical journey, I would of been considered an Elitist. I just liked what I liked. But as I've gotten older I've realized there's alot of great music out there, and I want to find it! Thank You for bearing with me on the beginning stages of this channel.

The palette of feelings in Nightwish's music is extremely diverse: optimism, energy, anger, innocence, melancholy, even sadness. From their repertoire, I recommend "Dead Boy's Poem" (live - Buenos Aires 2018) or "Procession" (official lyrics video - 2020) for sadness. What is happening to you? I think you feel like you are starting to become one of us.

Floor Jansen performing SHALLOW on the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers 2019 often produces tears. Enjoying your Nightwish journey - I too listened to the same stuff for years and rediscovered Nightwish due to a KZbin recommendation on a Megadeth reaction video.

Dead boys poem by nightwish

[@cjmacleod3976]

Nightwish…Dead Boy’s Poem, live from Buenos Aires…very very sad…and Floor’s performance makes it even more so.

[@TimoArula]

This song is Like a Coffee with Red Bull .... On Steroids 🤘❤‍🔥🤘. The “scream” at the end is called a glissando, going from low to high and back, for classically trained singers this is an exercise to warm up the vocal cords, so Floor will do this probably every day before breakfast . AND,...Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bullwhip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia/FloorFan !

[@Susirajantakaa]

Nightwish Dead boy's poem and Procession have already been mentioned. I also suggest Floor Jansen's own song Invincible, with the official video.

[@k.l.7788]

Procession from their newest album will brake anyones heart. No live footage but awesome lyric video.

[@corinna007]

Nightwish was the second Finnish band I was introduced to (before Floor joined). I've actually been able to see Floor and Marko both live at a Raskasta Joulua show, and they are amazing. ❤ JP Leppäluoto is still my favourite Finnish singer, though (I recommended him last time I commented.) Also, I recommend Apocalyptica. They were the first Finnish band I ever heard, and they are incredible. They play metal with three cellos and a drum kit.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

I have such a long list of songs im getting too, I appreciate all the guidance and recommendations!

[@gaborschermann5479]

Apocalyptica is a really great band, I've never imagined that 4 guys all with strings can make so big fun and atmosphere. Love them!

[@haroldcrown5541]

This is the reason Tuomas Holopainen the keyboardist is the writer of the music and is called the “Metal Mozart” the front lady is Floor Jansen aka the “Viking Queen”. Keep in mind when the Wackan, German festival pronounce W as V, at the start of this tour she was just a fill in singer! At this point she had only sang with the band for 10 months or so.

"The best Nightwish song is the one you're listening to" If it comes tu sad songs; The Poet and the Pendulum, Dead Boy's Poem and a Little-Known Song; The Crow, The Dove and the Owl

[@randalljones4370]

For me, this sing captures that non-verbalized Ripping of The Soul that happens when you've been betrayed in a relationship. Floor and Marko both read off a list of How You Effin Screwed Me Over (in their individual lines), then the two sides join to sing "Romanticide, Till Love Do We Part" They read off the reasons WHY they feel they've got to split apart. The Jukka starts the double-kick-march into hell... to me it's like listening to the ritual building of a funeral pyre for the relationship. The Audience (US) kick in with the bloodlust chant, edging the couple to rip it up as the drums march them onward to the final act. That Act... the slow-building crescendo of a single emotion, rising up and up to the to a giant full-voiced F.U. - and they don't even end it in unison anymore. That 'joining of the spirits' is ripped apart for good. Toss in a little Pyro-Love-Roast at the end and the crowd gets to celebrate one more flawed relationship tossed on the shitter. I coulda used this song a couple times, to cauterize the bleeding bits after getting betrayed or just blatantly lied to. Nightwish : Just what the doctor ordered. - Blind Doc Jones : Nightwish Medical Tent; Dentist, Gut-puncher, Heartfelt Eye-Roller, and Semi-Pro Breakup Vulture. - - seems like I only find the damaged bits that get left over after two of these Wolverines go at it.

They have sad ones, one in particular, but you need to know the backstory for it, Poet and the Pendulum. They also have happier songs like Alpenglow and Èlan. Inspiring ones like Endless Forms Most Beautiful and The Greatest Show on Earth. Enjoy the journey, dude. I'm adicted and am sure you will be too.

Same here. 14 months ago I'd somehow not heard of Nightwish or Floor 🤔😳. My introduction to them was via a friend recommending I try the "Poet and the Pendulum" live from Wembley 2015 so I did and was blown away and have been ever since. Phenomenal band. 🙏😊👍❤️

Bro I'm having such a blast. I just think i've grown and matured to where I really appreciate music on a pure level. I wasn't like that for so long!

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

dude, Paul! I can't wait to hear that song!

[@Starman_67]

@thecosmicwolffreacts that one needs a bit of research and understanding the song's context. Read the open letter to Tarja, their first singer, and know the shitstorm that erupted when she was fired. You talk about mental health. This song describes Tuomas' (bands keyboardist and prime composer) mental health and is effectively a suicide in a song. It is one of the best rock compositions I've ever heard and live, with Floor singing, it has HUGE emotional impact on the listener.

Anyone who has ever experienced this band live knows what the words, power, entertainment, emotions, and art mean. I've seen a lot of great bands live, but not even Metallica can compete with Nightwish Live. In the end, it's always the secret weapon Floor that makes the difference.

[@cphine]

Welcome to the Nightwish Army! Such an incredible rabbit hole to go down. Enough other people here will offer you song suggestions for them, so I'll answer your question about sad songs. I'm a metal head, but not to the exclusion of other genres. One song that I can't even bring myself to listen to anymore is "Goodbye My Lover" by James Blunt. I discovered that song shortly after the most hurtful breakup of my life and it makes me sob like a little baby. In the same mold as "breakup songs", I would recommend both "The Death of Passion" and "Dreaming Neon Black" by Nevermore. Neither are "sad" per se, but both have lyrics that just hit me hard. The Death of Passion is an aggressive banger that you can just get mad with while punching a punching bag or pillow. Dreaming Neon Black is more "contemplative" about the loss, and actually very much fits the situation I was in. If you do that one, pull up the lyrics online because there's a "first verse" that sets the stage though it isn't sung in the song.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Ohhhh Ive heard of James Blunt and his tears inducing songs😂. Appreciate the recommendations

Hey Cosmic, I too have only very recently discovered Nightwish, and it has become an obsession to watch their live shows and reactions to them. I love your reactions dude. This band is amazing, Tuomas is indeed the Metal Mozart, and Floor, what can I say that hasn't already been said! She's an artist who performs at a different level than I've ever seen or heard. You asked for sad songs....I saw that you have already done The Poet and the Pendulum, that would have been my pick. For me, the next saddest is probably Wings For Marie, parts 1 & 2 by Tool. I assume you know it? If not, and you choose to react to them, read the back story on that first so that you know what it's about. Thanks for your kind words and positivity! All peace and love to you and everyone here!

"Sleeping Sun" by Nightwish may not be considered sad, but it's their most beautiful. A long shot would be "Change" (aka. Change Part 1 & Part 2) by the Australian band Karnivool. It's a little difficult to pick the best version but it's worth the search.

[@PomLimey]

Nightwish are a different beast to the one that you heard back in the day. If you explore their more recent stuff you will be amazed. If you want a sad and poignant song then “Dead Boys Poem” live from Buenos Aires will break your heart but fill you with joy from the performance. If on the other hand you want a banger: “Tribal” live from Masters of Rock 2022 or Hellfest 2022. If you’re on the Nightwish train I’ll be there to keep you company. Greetings from the UK.

That decent into heaviness in the latter part of the song and the ascending duet between Marco and Floor, with her pulling out her operatic top end belt.. such energy! Love it. This is a great gig too.. another DVD favorite and a band which I too discovered through reaction content.. If you're interested in another flavour of Floor, check out Northward "While Love Died".. that's a nice song from a fun album, with a long production history. If you want something a little more sombre go for Floor Jansen singing "Shallows" on Beste Zangers, or if you want sombre with a passionate turnaround go for Lovebites "Edge of the World" and/or "Frozen Serenade".

Funny thing, I was not an "elitist" as you call it, but I began my metal journey with Sepultura, Manowar, Blind Guardian, Stratovarius, Iron Maiden, followed by Children of Bodom, In Flames and Archenemy. So when I first listened to Nightwish first when they had their first vocalist, It felt "meh", I totally do not dig Tarja opera singins, not my cup of tea. But boy oh boy, when I stumbled upon this very song and saw Floor as a new Nightwish frontman... This woman is pure gold and through her I kinda "rediscovered" nightwish. Still not my FAVORITE genre of metal, that will always be melodeath, but I am too old to pass by a fucking epic song and amazing vocals.

This one is a taste of metal Nightwish. Nightwish music runs the gamut. For a sad Nightwish song I would suggest "Dead Boy's Poem" live from Buenos Aires 2018. The ultimate sad song from Nightwish is of course "The Poet and the Pendulum". Both songs may require some understanding of the song concept to fully experience the emotional impact. Tuomas uses copious poetical lyrical metaphors and imagery to express his messages. many of them need to be understood from his personal perspective such as his love of nature and all things involving water. Such as oceans, rivers, and rain imagery. He also loves to use the phrase "dead boy" referring to himself or just the general concept of lost innocence or emotional hardening of the heart. Regarding PNP, I would suggest you learn a little about the concept and back story of the song before experiencing it live a Wembley Arena 2015. It is quite an unusual and unique composition for any metal band to conceive, much less perform live. In essence it involves the aftermath of parting with their original and beloved 1st vocalist, Tarja. Followed by the criticism and negativity aimed at Tuomas by the media and fans which led to severe depression, mental anguish, and suicidal contemplation. Dead Boy's Poem is based on a hypothetical situation posed by Tuomas. When asked what this song was about "Tuomas has said about this song, that it's about if he were to die tomorrow, what would he want to say to everyone that he loves, and that love him..."

Play Dead boys poem by Nightwish

[@justXdisgustin]

I like how u put “ex metal elitist”, I’m right there with ya. I had that kind of gatekeeper mentality for an embarrassingly long time. And just like u, I’ve heard the name Nightwish, but never checked em out til now, and I’m glad I did🤘

[@merqury5]

I love that you take in the band as a whole. You dont focus only on one of their incredible talens and rant on that. Floor is a dark mage of puling people in, she has her hooks in you. But she is pullling you steady. But yhere is other music out there too. If you want a sad song try "Love me like theres no tomorrow" by Freddie Mercury. Its about inevitable loss. Its pop. Or "These are the days of our lives", where you see Freddie 2 steps from death. But if this is too strong on the Pride for you Nightwish have some jerkers too, like Dead Boys Poem. There are many great suggestions from the army here to choose from. We will be here watching whatever you choose.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

Dude I appreciate the kind words sooo much! I will for sure add the songs to the list

[@geertdelange4785]

The sound is very good

[@wangtang7768]

They can be anything, crazy how many sounds , sights and vocals you will get with this band 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼

[@littleraven28]

Very nice reaction. It's funny that you are surprised they can be heavy. Of course they can be, they are very versatile. Every song by Nightwish is different, thats one of the reasons I love'em as much as I do. This one always reminds me of old Metallica and yes that riff is awesome. But they have a heavier song with an even better riff if you ask me. Just enjoy your journey into their catalogue, there is so much more to discover 🖤🤘🏼

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

appreciate the love and support.

[@ANDZIGCREAM]

5 or 6 bands you say. Then I will add one more you should check out. Swedish power metal band SABATON. They write music about actual events with war theme. Maybe start off with the official music video Bismarck, about the battleship in WW2. There videos are known to be insane. And the drummer is married to our Valkyrie Floor Jansen whom you just witnessed singing like the microphone owed her money. About this reaction. Not hard to see that you enjoy it. And man do you have lots of amazing song to explore with this band. I am totally here for it.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

I'm having such an amazing time, and you all are making it soooo fun!

[@FromG2eminor]

Been listening to them daily for almost a year and I still can't get enough. I know you love the heavy but you will love everything they do. Double whammy Nightwish week=i have subbed :)

[@user-yi7hx8bp6x]

Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean - Live In Buenos Aires

[@GarbageThreepwood]

Just found your channel, great reacts! Not sure if you've heard these already, but a few recs: - Epica's "Sancta Terra" from the Live Retrospect show. Normally a song for a single singer, but Floor Jansen is in that performance as well and makes it a duet. - Ayreon's "The Day That the World Breaks Down". Ayreon is a project by a multi-instrumentalist Arjen Lucassen and while it's more in the "prog rock/metal" vibe, he works with a wide range of metal musicians and singers. Look up the official video with the commentary; the song's about 13 minutes long but well worth it. - Nightwish's "The Greatest Show on Earth". It's a commitment at 20 minutes, but it's so damn good.

[@TheWolffAndTheMelody]

lol I actually have those songs on my watch list.

[@GarbageThreepwood]

@@TheWolffAndTheMelody Hell yeah, looking forward to the reacts. 🤘

[@b4yma]

If you looking for heavy songs with Floor, try "Yours is an empty hope"....you will enjoy this...

[@monicacarolina6480]

With Floor Jansen as singer (Holland) Tuomas can write everything :) Trash, Symphonic, Speed,prog,doom, folkmetal and even beautiful folksongs.
