[@schout33]

It is obvious that our Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen has taken yet another soul. Yes she can do it all. She is the best and most versatile female singer of our time. To see how she developed this, check out her former bands 'After Forever' and 'Revamp'. She joined 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. My favourite song is 'Energize Me'. They made a very nice music video from this one. They disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song, from full operatic to serious growling in seconds. The songs 'Disdain' and 'Wild Card' are good examples. Then the call came from Nightwish in 2012 to fill in for the remainder of the American Tour at first. But the rest of the World Tour followed also. After she became a permanent member of Nightwish after this Wacken concert (the official announcement came later, but it was clear that this combination was made in Walhalla), she kept performing with 'Revamp' for a couple of years, but it became obvious, that she could not combine the two much longer and they disbanded in 2016. Her side project 'Northward' is also worth a look. The song 'While Love Died' shows yet another side of Floor. Her mindblowing performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country, where she was relatively unknown until then. Also on KZbin there are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor uploaded many interesting videos in the last year, such as chats with her idols and other singers. mindblowing covers, vocal masterclasses and so much more. Just go to her KZbin channel and unpack some of the presents she left there. Floorgasm alert! Her latest video is a must see. She reacts to herself doing this performance at Wacken 2013. Lots of technical info and some memories of her early days with Nightwish.

[@TeemarkConvair]

well said and her own personal Floorgasm is a site to behold!!

[@doncoon3146]

Yep another soul fell.

[@Nikioko]

What if I told you that Floor's so praised versitality in styles is nothing special? Sure, she is great, but she also has the luck to be the front singer of a famous band. So, unlike Tarja, she found herself in a feathered nest. But there are so many crossover musical singers of which most people never heard of that are versitile (yes, THAT versitile) as well. Example? kzbin.info/www/bejne/rILPg4OMo753fdU kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIuUpJSbm5KIhNE kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2rQeoGEjb-Uirs kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqbLqGuQqLV_mJY kzbin.info/www/bejne/joiqZmudg5t_d6M Yes, it is always the same person singing...

@@Nikioko you're wasting your time with these Floor infatuated fan boys. Let them live in their own little world, where they believe that Floor is the best in the world, when she's probably not even the best in her country. Both Simon and Sharon are better than her and they're both from Holland

[@Nikioko]

@@carlossilva7530 I just wanted to show them that the ocean of music is deeper than the coastal waters they are shipping in. And that you never discover new lands if you don't dare to lose sight of your familiar coasts. THere is so much to discover in music and those people believe they know everything, entitling them to use superlatives. Coming to singers: Simone is without a doubt better than Floor. Sharon probably as well. I personally like Anneke since her time as the lead vocalist of The Gathering. But this isn't a competition. I like Floor, too, but I would never say that she is the best or most versitile singer in the world. Those people who claim that should listen more carefully to The Greatest Show on Earth: "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." Well, and singers greater than Floor.

Hello VonSchnitzelCrum [REACTS] ! Nightwish fans here, your musical quest summoned us. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing here at Wacken Open Air festival 2013, together with Floor Jansen, the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of a 82k audience. Also a recent sad news - these days Marco Hietala, the bass player and male singer of the band, announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least - we'll see what the future brings to us. About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners. As I saw, you enjoyed the powerful performance of the band, together with the stellar vocals of our Dutch metal queen, Floor Jansen. Hope you'll continue on this path.

[@gabriel.bardac]

Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory): " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her. There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps. I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "

You can also react to Floor Jansen "tapping" other musical genres in Beste Zangers 2019 (TV show from Netherlands) here is a playlist made by Floor herself (start listen it in reverse order..) For entire episodes of the show with En subtitles, you should check Denise Hofs's DM channel In these pandemic times, Floor Jansen has decided to make covers for us, which you can find on her YT channel - there are already 6 covers there, the first is "Let It Go" from "Frozen" (19 weeks ago, already over 2.269M views), the second - "Alone" from "Heart" , released 17 weeks ago - 1.082M and counting. Then 15 weeks ago she dropped the third cover, in Dutch: "Is Dit Nou Later" from Stef Bos - already 269K views. Just before Christmas she made a powerful cover of "Ave Maria" - already 285K views. 12 weeks ago she added a remastered / remixed version of the first one, "Let It Go" - already 187K. 10 weeks ago she added to the list a powerful cover of "Adagio" by Lara Fabian (!!!) - 393K views now. Then, just 5 weeks ago she gave us the last one so far: "Oblivion" by M83 - 406K views in 5 weeks.. Thank you! Waiting for more Nightwish reactions. All the best from RO. Stay safe.

Gabriel should come and give you info about Nightwish. Nightwish is a symphonic metal band from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen a.k.a Metal Mozart, keys, founded Nightwish in 1999 in Kitee Finland, a small town 10k people. He is the band leader, main songwriter, composition, lyrics, arrangement. The bassist/vocalist! Marko Hietala writes some of the songs, composition, lyrics, often together with Tuomas. Marko has his many side projects. He had a band Tarot with his older brother Zachary, the guitarist, starting in late 1980's. Marko's roots are in classical heavy rock. "All Hietala Power Trio" is a band with Marko, Zachary and Marko's son Miro, 19 on drums. They have play Black Sabbath covers for example. Marko joined Nightwish in 2001. He released a solo album in 2019. Other Finns in Nightwish. Emppu Vuorinen, guitar, Jukka Nevalainen, drums, Kai Hahto, Jukka's good friend, drums, replacing Jukka in 2015 due to Jukka's insomnia. The original female lead vocalist Tarja Turunen 1996-2005. She was followed by Anette Olzon from Sweden, 2007-2012. Floor Jansen, you just heard her and had your 1st Floogasm, joined Nightwish late 2012 on a 48 hour notice, replacing Anette in the midst of the Nightwish US tour. Floor is Dutch. Floor had just recovered from burnout and was attending her sister's wedding when she got a call from Tuomas asking her to join Nightwish. In Wacken 2013 she had been with Nightwish for 10 months only, and became an official member of the band a few months later. Troy Donockley, the multi-instrumentalist from the UK, is "the 6th member" of Nightwish. You'll hear him play later. He had occasionally played, in studio and on stage, with Nightwish for several years, but became a full member at the same time as Floor. For your next Nightwish reaction I suggest "Romanticide" Wacken 2013. Greetings from Helsinki Finland!

[@Idefixu]

Nightwish uses a backing track played by musicians from the London Philharmonic Orchestra and sung by a couple of choirs, the other one is a childrens' choir. Tuomas writes the music, Pip Williams helps with the orchestration.

I've watched hundreds of reaction videos with Floor singing, especially where the reactions are done by classically trained vocal coaches and the common denominator amongst them is that, despite her incredible vocal skills, she doesn't have enough resonance to perform a true opera concert in a packed hall, without any damage to her vocal chords. But maybe you could shed some light into this issue.

@@carlossilva7530 Exactly, exactly. A true opera singer has to sing umamplified in any position and the words must be understood in the last line of the audience.

She just has the luck to be the front singer of a famous band. So, unlike Tarja, she found herself in a feathered nest.

Now you have scratched the surface of wht Nighwish can do, and Floor Jansen's range of capabilites, you are going to be blown away by the rest. We like to see this as a gentle introduction. No, I am not joking. And congratulations on your first Floorgasm. The genre is really Nightwish, but is generally classed alongside symphonic metal, although they defy pigeonholing. There is an orchestra behind them (The London Philharmonic Orchestra), and two choirs (London's Metro Voices and the London Young musicians Childrens Choir). Touring with that many is not practically or financially viable though, and fans wait in hope for maybe a one off special live performance with all the backing present in person. Tuomas, on keyboards, writes almost all of it, but takes input from other members once he has put together a demo for them to understand what he is after. Watch for a comment by Gabriel Bardac, who will drop the new reactors packet of information on you - and pin it, as it is gold you will want to find and refer to, and may otherwise get lost in the comments as the Nightwish Army mobilises.

You get sucked in within a second! ) Cheers ) This is an iconic song and I dont think you can get better then this live recording. Go further with Nightwish and more chills are coming your way )

Nightwish Army, New Zealand Division reporting. I think this is one of the greatest rock songs ever, up there with traditional highly rated songs (Stairway to Heaven, Bohemian Rhapsody, etc). Really a masterpiece!

[@VonSchnitzelCrumREACTS]

Hello New Zealand Neighbour !! Its truly an amazing song it has to be in the top 50

[@Hexley_Vexley]

Great reaction! 👍🤘 Nightwish is a glorious rabbit hole of awesome, with world class song-writing, musicianship and arguably (or unarguably to most who've heard her enough😉) the best female vocalist alive today (maybe ever), Floor Jansen. Floor is the third female vocalist that Nightwish have had, she was only with them on tour for 10 months at this point and officially joined the band in 2013, she is still with them today. The other band members are - Tuomas Holopainen - Song writer/composer and Keyboards. (Finland) Marko Hietala - Bassist and vocals. (Finland) Emppu Vuorinen - Guitarist (Finland) Jukka Nevalainen - Drums (Finland) Troy Donockley - Multi-instrumentalist and Vocals. (United Kingdom) Floor herself is Dutch and is another glorious rabbit hole of awesome as she has a lot of non-Nightwish related stuff that she has done that is all pretty amazing as well. The name of the genre they generally belong to is Symphonic Metal but their discography is extremely varied. This was the 13th song in this particular set, she is belting notes like that the entire set. Nighwish are almost always better experienced with live versions of their songs if at all possible. Some suggestions for more songs for you to continue your journey would be Storytime, Ever Dream, Romanticide, Nemo, Amaranth and Song of Myself all from Wacken 2013. Saying that, anything from Wacken 2013 is golden really to start, there's a reason why that set is pretty legendary at this point, 82,000 people were in attendance. Beware of some messed up slowed down versions of the Wacken 2013 songs as they can take the energy right out of the performances, just check the comments on them and I'm sure someone will mention if it's a slowed down version. Your choice obviously but I'd avoid Poet and the Pendulum and The Greatest Show on Earth for now until you are more familiar with the band and it's history, they will make alot more sense and be more enjoyable for you that way. Enjoy your Nightwish journey, I know I did!😎🤘

I love that you mention about the "guitar solo". Emppu is a beast on the guitar, he can do those fancy speedy tapping and shredding too but he always delivers "just enough". And just like you said, it always sounds like a literal part of the story being told, not as a "hey look at me go brrrr"

As a "not" Nightwish fan, i would suggest listening to Romanticide - Wacken 2013 and Yours Is An Empty Hope - Wembley 2015 and after that, Floor Jansen and Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera at Beste Zangers 2019! 🔥💥🥰🤞🏻✌🏼

This is Symphonic Heavy Metal, by the way😉. The backing orchestral track is recorded with London Symphonic orchestra. The guy on the keyboards (Tuomas Holopainen) is Nightwish's Mastermind and main composer. He is Metal Mozart of our time!) so keyboards are REALLY important in Nightwish))) because all of their music (ok, maybe 98% of it) is written on the keyboards at first)) really good catch!!

[@VonSchnitzelCrumREACTS]

WOW !!! you were their, ahhhhh so jealous

[@gillandianyt3920]

Wow, you must have some stories to tell!

[@papaverweg]

This genre is regularly called Symphonic Metal. All the symphonic music you hear (on almost every song of Nightwish is written by Tuomas (keyboards) but is performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Since there’s not enough space on stage for a full live orchestra (and also couldn’t go with them on world tour for more than a year) it’s a running soundtrack pre-recorded at Angel Studios, London. This orchestra is featuring on every album NW released since ‘Once’ (except the last one Human :|: Nature which is performed by Blue Dot Orchestra). kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpTbm36iisidjtE The background choir you frequently hear are the Metro Voices, a choir group also based in London.

[@harrythatsme2100]

Great reaction. You know what your talking about! This is a nice introduction song, from this point on they will not stop to amaze you. And about Floor.... nobody have found the bottom of what she is capable of, you will see. Nice to know is that Floor wasn't even a member of the band during this show. She was asked to help them out half way this Tour,because the official singer needed to quit due to health problems. Floor learned the whole setlist in 48 hours. Stick to this concert for atleast 4 songs -Romanticide -Storytime -Song of Myself -Everdream Love follow you on your dive into the rabbithole:)

[@VonSchnitzelCrumREACTS]

Thanks Harry !! I know abit about music lol but i haven't really listened to anything new for about 10 - 13years which is why im doing this :) Thanks for the suggestions! They have been added to the list

Love your reaction ☺️ wellcome to our Nightwish living of live🤘🏻🤟🏻

[@wojciechpedzich4773]

Actually, in this band, the bass guittar does a lot to complete the massive sound that Nightwish makes and boosts the drive. And the guitarist? Don't you worry, he can shred with the best of them. Also, hate to break the news to you but some of the symphonic sound is tracked - actually, that is what gives Nightwish's sound extra layers of depth. And by all means, feel free to explore more, you will find greater variation, they still do their music, only so much better, with their 2020 release. Hope you like them.

They record orchestral backing tracks at Angel Studios with musicians from the London Philharmonic orchestra so a lot of the orchestra parts you hear really are full orchestra as opposed to synth work. Toamas does the initial composing and then he an Pip Williams complete the adaptation for full orchestra. Ditto the background choir parts - Metro Voices of London. Welcome to symphonic metal! Glad to see that you enjoyed it!

been listening to Nightwish since my teens, not a metalhead but just gotta love the gems, Nighwish, Haggard etc

[@Zozo-K-]

Nightwish is from Finland, so probably Vikings more than musketeers...lol. Floor Jansen, the vocalist, is from the Netherlands. They are a much more diverse band than you might think from this one song...not all of their songs sound like this and, even regarding Floor’s vocals, you’ve only scratched the surface. Anything from this Wacken 2013 show is brilliant, but I’d specifically recommend these songs from that show to get a sense of what they can do: Song of Myself, Storytime, Romanticide, and Everdream.

[@VonSchnitzelCrumREACTS]
