Hello, mom & daughter [Generation Gap Reacts] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience.
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.
Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] 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 [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] 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 [pronounced Tarr-ya] (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 "
For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I just posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community

Hi, Gabriel. The Dutch top 2000 is about to start.
We should start an all out offence to get more Nightwish songs into the 2000,like Song of Myself and How's the Heart ♥ (acoustic)etc.
We should definitely do it to honour the Goddess and her Brothers, Herald of Nightwish. 🤘😇🤩❤️🦾👍
Thank you Gabriel! That was a lot of amazing information and we’re excited to start our Nightwish journey! We will head to your CZcams and soak up more information to help us along as we continue
@@generationgapreacts Thank you for your positive response. You understood very well the concept of this musical genre, which combines metal with orchestral and vocal elements of classical music. "Medieval" was the word mom was looking for :)
I hope you will continue with us this journey of exploring a quarter of a century of inspired music, composed and performed by Nightwish.
Greetings from Romania!
Although Floor has operatic training, I don't consider the little excerpts she sings with Nightwish to be operatic at all. She sings classical occasionally but definitely not operatic. She did some operatic in this song but only in parts like the single line before the growl, the staccato, and the single word before the belt at the end. She sings on mix mostly.
Great comment as always Gabriel.Greetings From Finland once again.
I discovered them a month ago at 70 years old and have not enjoyed a musical adventure as much as this before
Welcome in the Nightwish army
@@ronnwarmyrotterdam4433 👍This is an army I can appreciate and happily be considered a part of
I'm right there with you, JW. I'm 68 and have to say this rivals anything Led Zeppelin has ever done, and I just love LZ!
@@JWNanaimo Yeah man, I hear you and I am from Amsterdam 😎
Last winter I was 73 and discovered Nightwish. The most amazing music discovery since Pink Floyd.
It NEVER gets old reliving this with someone hearing Nightwish for the first time. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal, the creative genius that is Tuomas Holopainen, and of course, The Valkyrie Queen Herself, Nederlander soprano Floor Jansen.
yep, its never gets old ^^
I concur 😉
i also concur
It's always wonderful to see that first reaction to her voice… Valkyrie Goddess of Metal, indeed...
^This.
Welcome to the very deep, Nightwish rabbit hole. The Nightwish Army will be arriving soon.
God help us
@@sean---the-other-one 😁😂🤣
Lol. "Soon".
It never takes an hour.

Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
of her vocals.
We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.
ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
The Nightwish Army is incoming! You're not ready!
Nightwish Army Central Florida Black Company reporting for duty!
Floor is an amazing person. Her connection with the fans is second to none.
On the last leg of the South American tour this year, she found out that she had breast cancer. Got home home, got the tumor removed and was notified that she was cancer free. Then went and launched their European Tour 3 days after that. So within a month she kicks cancer to the curb then gets re-energized by her Nightwish brothers and fans.
So dedicated to her craft, family, and fans, she finds a way to balance it all.
And then went on to tour - and warm up Metallica - while very much pregnant. Until something like seventh month.
Two hours shows on her level are pretty damn heavy exercise - especially to your core muscles - even without having handful of kilos of foreign life inside your abdomen.
I've been around for almost 8 decades and have had many 'favorite' singers, but they all pale in comparison to what Floor can do. Versatile, powerful and pitch perfect. She has more styles that you have yet to hear. And this is live with her voice in the forefront without any effects on it. Just pure talent. 😊🤘
Talent for sure, but on top of a lot of determination and hard work. She loves what she does, but from what I can glean from the interviews, she puts in the elbow grease too.
I'm just a young'un compared to you (only 69 lol) but I agree wholeheartedly. Floor is magical.
@@nightwishlover8913 You kids have very good taste. 😂🤣😂
You mentioned that Floor looks like a goddess or a warrior: She's a shade over 6 feet tall, and Nightwish fans call her the "Valkyrie Goddess." (Possibly because her voice steals people's souls.)
I'm a 64 year old female, and i cannot ever get enough of nightwish ,Floor is awesome, the whole band is awesome, ( miss Marko) please react to more...live reactions please, they are so much better live...
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!!! YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!
No one is ever ready for that note.. Love watching their faces as she blows them away.
The Sarah Brightman comparison is actually pretty accurate when Floor is using her more classical timbre. You should hear her do Phantom of the Opera. (Yes, you can find that online)
Nightwish came before Evanescence, they've been around since the mid-90s. They're not the first Symphonic Metal band, but they are probably the biggest, most popular one working.
On "kept changing," That was 17 key changes through 5 different keys you just witnessed. The composer, Tuomas, (the keyboardist) is a friggin genius.
Great reaction, it was fun to watch the two if you both get snared by our Valkyrie Goddess 😃 Welcome to the Nightwish Army
Symphonic metal, Therion is generally credited as being the first, while Nightwish is at the top of the genre as one of its most definitive and commercially successful acts.
Yeah, you got precursors to the style as early as some of the things Black Sabbath did in the 70s but it was really in the mid-late 90s it got properly going. Therion with the album Theli, 1996, watershed moment. Nightwish has also been around and doing their thing since about the same time (first album out in 1997). Source: Am old, have been listening to this stuff since the 90s.
Therion. Sabine Ebelsbacher. Within Temptation.
@@crhu319 1969 Deep Purple, Concerto for Group and Orchestra.
Taking from Hannu's comment, with the link to Deep Purple, take a listen to Rainbow's "Stargazer" with Ronnie James Dio on the vocals. It was astonishing in 1976 and it still remains so today. :)
@@paultimmins5809 These are mostly one-offs, pre-cursors, rather than all-ins from mid to late 90s and later. No one thinks of Metallica as symphonic metal after S&M, even though it's literally symphonic metal )))
Those who hear Floor for the first time have Floorgasms. That voice is unbelievable and makes you set up and take notice. She is the Warrior Queen.
Nightwish is a symphonic metal band. Ghost Love Score is Floor's favorite song and this was song #13 on a 15 song 1.5 hour set. Most fans will recommend the 2013 Wacken performance because the sound system and mix is superb at Wacken. Floor had only been with the NW a few months before the the Wacken, Germany festival and she was brought in as a temporary replacement for the previous lead singer, Annette, who had parted ways with the band during the U.S. leg of their world tour. For the moist part Floor was welcomed with open arms by most NW fans who liked her classical and metal style. If you watch some of the other Wacken songs you'll see that she is also the Queen of headbangers and often referred to as the Dutch Windmill. All the Wacken 2013 songs are fantastic and pretty common that new reactors get hooked and wind up going through. the entire Wacken setlist. NW is still very popular throughout Europe and Latin America. If you watch their Buenos Aires or Rio performances you's notice that she also sports some amazing tattoos.
Just to dot the i: Annette wasn't actually fired. As it became clear that situation became irreparable, they just split ways. Timing wise the band would have preferred Annette to continue until her pregnancy/maternity leave that was 2 months away. (Unlike the first singer Tarja, she was taken by supprise)
@@vogel2280 Thanks. I reworded.
@@vogel2280 yes she was, watch the docu..Please learn the playlist in 48 hours..
That was the third last song of 15, one hour and a half and that's still her voice. This is our metal goddess Floor Jansen. The best singer in the world. She can sing anything, even phone books. No kidding, she's already done that for us.
This woman can sing anything she wants and it turns gold. Highest notes, deep crowling, anything and this in perfection.
Jukka (drummer) is our bull rider, pirate, showman.
Watch Nightwish's "Nemo" same concert. Jukka with stickswings all over the place.
Floor Jansen (aka) the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal .
It´s so much fun seeing people discover the wonderful, magical, emotion evoking Nightwish. They aren´t like any other band, they are more than music... Great reaction :D
Floor Jansen is Dutch, over 6ft tall and can sing anything. She joined Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish in late 2012 mid-tour and learned the complete setlist in 2 days before performing in Seattle. This is ten months later, in front of 82,000, and she was superb at this concert singing 15 songs written for the previous two singers. The first,Tarja, was very operatic and the second, Anette, was quite pop. There is a CZcams channel for Floor Jansen where she sings all kinds of covers from Disney, and various types of singers. Her solo version of Lady Gaga's Shallow is magnificent.
They are a Finnish Symphonic Metal group. Have had 3 female lead singers, this is their current lead, Floor Jansen from The Netherlands. There is a huge rabbit hole once you jump in. ❤️🤘🎸🎻🇦🇺
This is called symphonic metal, and you just stumbled upon the best example of this style. I'a HUGE fan of theirs (my favourite band) and their music are pieces of art, IMHO.
Believe me, this is only an introduction to what this band and this Valkyrie can do. When you go through their composition, you'll just be a-m-a-z-e-d!
Please, continue on this band and listen to Gabriel. You won't regret it!
Good reaction, and congrats for finding Nightwish! 'Storytime' from the same concert next, please 🙂👍
Nightwish Army South Germany Division here
Hello Mom and Daughter (Generation Gap Reacts) ...Our Boss, Commander-in-Chief and General of the Nightwish Army Gabriel Bardac has already told you the most important things.
It only remains for me to say a warm welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and at the same time welcome as a new recruits to the ranks of the Nightwish Army.
You've just seen and heard her, who is named by her fans worldwide in the sum of her honorifics in hundreds of React videos:
This is Our Majesty Floor Jansen, First of her Name, Goddess of the Valkyrs, Highly Queen of the Vikings, THE Lady of Nightwish, the House Band of the Gods of Asgard, Chosen Ones of Odin ,Protector of our Metal Realm
Long may she reign
She raises her hand and commands an 80k+ crowd with her incredible presence and power. Just with a wave of her hand.
A member of the Nightwish Army once said: The old gods of Asgard sent Floor Jansen down from the heavenly heights as their gift to Nightwish. They sent them armed with a sword in one hand and a microphone in the other.
And yes, I personally believe that's how it happened.
There is nothing more to say about this
Greetings from Germany
the lady
P.S.: Another Videos for you:
Epica feat. Floor Jansen - Sancta Terra
Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom of the Opera from the Netherland TV-Series "Best Zangers" from 2019
And another tip: If you're planning on "The Greatest Show on Earth", please show the lyrics to it. In both versions of this masterpiece, that of London and that of Tampere, there are text passages that are a bit too quiet and get lost in the music. These are the lyrics spoken by Richard Dawkins.
And both versions differ significantly in part 1 and 3. If I were you, I would prefer the London version at Wembley Stadium.
The same goes for "The Poet and the Pendulum" as far as the overlaying of the lyrics goes. Especially here it is really important to follow the lyrics.
I'm one who suggested you react to this video. Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, they collaborate with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
The current Nightwish female vocalist, Floor Jansen, is the 3rd one. She's the most versatile of the three. That's why she, I think, is the best vocalist for Nightwish. Nightwish has many kinds of songs, metal, folky, Celtic, ballads, even one that can be called jazz. Tuomas Holopainen, the band founder, leader, composer, lyricist, writes wast majority of Nightwish songs.
The original female vocalist, Tarja Turunen, 1996-2005, had a very operatic style, the 2nd Anette Olzon, 2007-2012, had poppish/rock style, and Floor, from 2012 on, can sing every style from operatic to growling.
I hope you would react to Nightwish rendition of "THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA",
2005 End of an Era DVD.
It was Tarja's last concert with Nightwish, she did't know that, the rest of the band did. Anyway, her voice is perfect for this song, the role of Christine. So is Marko's, (Marko Hietala, the bassist, 2001- 2021), voice for the role of the Phantom!
About headbanging. Floor's headbanging is called windmilling, because she 's Dutch.
On the video you just see she did not really windmill, it was more like headbanging. Wait until you see Nightwish - 7 DAYS TO THE WOLVES Wembley 2015 video. Floor windmills about half a minute straight, Tuomas on keys, windmills too while playing.
I hope, and believe, you'll react to more Nightwish. As many song as possible and a bit later the other two big ones:
THE POET AND THE PENDULUM Wembley 2015,
THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Tampere 2015
(You just reacted to one of the three big ones, GHOST LOVE SCORE Wacken 2013. The Buenos Aires 2012 version is not bad either. Check it out, it's more intimate.)
Greetings from Helsinki Finland!
Thank you for suggesting Nightwish Risto! We really enjoyed it! “Windmilling” is a cool technique. That makes a lot of sense, it was modified head banging. Love it!
I concur saving TPaTP and TGSoE for much later.
@@generationgapreacts Do „Storytime“ (same concert: Wacken 2013) and you know what’s windmilling really means - here in Ghost Love Score it was headbanging… ‼️🏆👍
She has many names but she is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇😇😇, Vocal Sorceress, Siren,
Soprano Goddess, Dark Galadriel etc etc.
Hail Nightwish ❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘
Welcome my fellow brothers and sisters from The Nightwish Army lets send these gals on a ride with Nightwish that they will never forget
I was at this concert and i can tell you that every minute of it was magical. Little did i know this show would become so famous. Just amazing.
Hi lovely ladies, Michael from Australia here. I am so glad you watched this amazing band. They are not very well known in Australia. I found them many years ago and have loved them for a long time. If you stick with Gabriel's format, you will discover how amazing they are. The band members are some of the greatest performers on the planet. Hands down. Enjoy.
Nightwish Army New York here welcome 👋. Welcome to "symphonic metal" you'll get a plethora of information about this great band. When Gabriel posts he will include everything you need to know.
In the mean time, if you want to continue on, I think it's time for a little story, try " Storytime" from this same show.
I have never heard anyone reference Repo at any time. Great reference and I’m a huge fan of Skinny Puppy who OHGR was in Repo. Awesome!
So cool, another repo fan!
@@generationgapreacts Nightwish made a full movie of Imaginareum. Not dissimilar to "Repo". And their more recent video "Noise" really has that vibe.
Same here Michael, grew up on Skinny Puppy and love Repo
This was one of the most epic concerts ever.....now you only have 14 more songs to react to from this concert. Every song is a masterpiece!! Floor is just amazing as is the entire band.
Ladies
As a member of Nightwish Army, welcome to Nightwish! This band started in 1999 with students studying music in Finland: Tuomas (keyboardist & original singer, Tarja). Tarja from 1999 to 2005 sang for the band until she was forced to leave the band. Bass player, Marko here, now retired from touring joined the band in 2002 and stayed until 2021. Guitarist Emppu along with Tuomas are longest served in the band. Tarja's replacement, Anette joined the band in 2007 after Tuomas put band on hiatus because he suffered depression from letting go Tarja. Fans blamed him for letting Tarja go. Then her replacement, Anette left the band in 2012. Band's current singer, Floor Jansen started out as their touring vocalist. Floor and band's multi-instrumentalist, Troy became full-time members.
Oh, forgotten about original drummer, Jukka shown here. Jukka retired from touring after he had trouble sleeping. But Jukka still with band working day to day operations. His replacement's name is Kai Hahto. Funny that Gen daughter stated that Floor has an operatic skill. Floor studied opera and other vocal skills. She is a vocal coach teaching others besides singing for Nightwish. Floor Jansen has her own CZcams channel. She has videos on the channel including her analysis of her singing "Ghost Love Score".
Thank you MrTech! That’s great info on the group. We are excited to start listening to more music!
They started in 1996 😊👍

despite of all comments. Tonight I still got tears after hundred times hearing this song. What an epic band.
You've opened up pandora's box now. Gabriel will jump in at some point soon to help guide you through a great Nightwish experience. For me, as great as every single member of the band is it's Floor Jansen (their current singer) that brings it all together. In my humble opinion she is the greatest female vocalist in the world today. Check our her solo work as well!
Just seen them live at Birmingham. What an experience. Epic.
Sarah Brightman is not a strange comparison at all. In fact, as others I'm sure have already mentioned, Floor Jansen sang "Phantom of the Opera" on the Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers" (Floor is Dutch) with fellow countryman Henk Poort who originated the role of the Phantom in the Netherlands.
Do check out Floor's rendition of Shallow from the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers (Best Singers) it is amazing. For Nightwish From the same Wacken 2013 Concert watch Everdream and Storytime. For their metal sound A Song for Myself and Romanticide again form Wacken 2013. These will triple your viewer numbers as well. Floor just had surgery for breast cancer but is already back on tour.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. Her name is Floor Jansen, she is Dutch and the 3rd and current female lead singer.
The band is from Finland. The mastermind is keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen. He writes 90-95% of the songs ,including the orchestral backing track recorded with the London Philharmonic.
See the comment from Gabriel Bardac for more info and links to a lot of their songs.
You mentioned Sarah Brightman. Sarah played Christine in the Phantom of the Opera. NIghtwish has covered that song, with original lead singer Tarja Turunen and the bassist seen here, Marko Hietala. (see the live version from the 2005 Helsinki show, End of an Era DVD)
Floor has performed Phantom with Henk Poort(Dutch Phantom). First at the 2019 Dutch TV show Beste Zengers and at her solo 2021 Amsterdam show. And just last weekend for the first time, Floor and Henk sang it with Nightwish in concert (only cellphone videos so far)

You've only just begun ladies , oh there's so much more from Nightwish and Floor .
NightWish Army Wisconsin Chapter here, welcome to NightWish and our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen (pronounced Yahnsen). The GREATEST Symphonic Metal band on the Planet!
They run in a lane of their own.Nightwish road trip pack a lot of snacks!!
You should react to Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac. She passed away yesterday. A few of the big Fleetwood Mac hit songs she wrote or co-wrote and sang lead on, "Songbird", "Say You Love Me", "You Make Loving Fun", "Over My Head", "Everywhere"...
Definitely! She was a great force in the group as a singer and songwriter. Fantastic songs! "Songbird" is her masterpiece! But any of those hits you listed would be _awesome_ to react to!!
We are so sad! We will have some tributes songs for her next week
Christine was a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice and a beautiful soul! RIP
Goed zo ik stem namelijk ook in de top 2000.
Heel de army doet dat het word tijd dat Nightwish meer op de radio gedraaid word.
Ladies, I saw Nightwish live last monday November 28th in Amsterdam🇵🇾. It was mindblowing. This song was at the end of the concert and was just as good as the first. This band IS WORLDCLASS 😍
17min52seg; "FLOORGASM" archived for the "daughter", no doubt!!! Your reaction was gteat and genuine, thanks!!!😉🤘🇦🇷
2024 and still epic........props to the orchestra, the band and the chorus ( or choir ) singers for adding to Floor's amazing vocals.....symphonic metal at its best🤟this is a truly difficult composition and score to perform........... so many key changes 🎶 thank you Nightwish and Floor............
hiya ladys floor jansen is a brilliant singer she can do it all she is a trained singer and also teaches people too her rasp singer is somethink else to listen too she is 6ft tall the group are finnish but floor is dutch should go watch more of the group its called syphonic metal if i remember right they call her the valkyrie warrior queen my son got me into nightwish about 8 yrs ago and loved them ever since and in 67 yrs old lol
You just stumbled upon an entire new genre of music that's very popular throughout Europe and South America, but for some behind-the-scenes industry politics reasons doesn't really get traction in the US.
Symphonic metal and its sister subgenre, Gothic Symphonic metal, usually feature classically trained or operatic vocals and orchestral backing (usually in the form of pre-recorded backing tracks, as it's hard to tour with a full orchestra in tow).
So far, the only band from this genre to really break into US charts is gothic metal band Evanescence, but the Nightwish Army here is introducing the band to everybody they meet. And the Nightwish rabbit hole leads to plenty more amazing bands you've never heard of. Kamelot, Within Temptation, Visions Of Atlantis, Xandria, After Forever, Blackbriar, Sirenia, Ayreon...just to name a few.
After Nightwish's Storytime from this same Wacken 2013 festival, I suggest dipping into Gothic Symphonic band Epica - with a guest appearance by Nightwish's Floor Jansen 😉 Epica's Simone Simons is Floor's best friend, and very nearly as good a singer.

The Nightwish army welcomes you with open arms.
Enjoy the upcoming journey.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish.With this song you were able to hear the grandmasters of symphonic metal for the first time.I would like to warn you right at the beginning of your Nightwish journey - ALWAYS expect the unexpected! With Floor Jansen, Nightwish has the most versatile singer in the world in its ranks, whose range extends over 3 octaves and her high note is a D6.She sings every genre to perfection and knows how to inspire every audience.With a height of 6 feet and her strong charisma, she has earned the title Goddess quite rightly.What makes this band so special is that they are not only friends but siblings. Even if they are not related to each other.If I may give you a recommendation, please follow Gabriel's list and you will get to know a world that you can not even begin to imagine.Thank you for taking the time to reacting to this incredible band. Of course, I also left you a subscription. Best regards,Kelsea
Nightwish Army, Manitoba, Canada division reporting in. I love so very much to see people's proverbial socks blown off the first (and fiftieth) time they hear Nightwish. All their songs are DIFFERENT. You'll catch certain themes that reappear, but they are all unique.
Wish I could discover and enjoy Nightwish together with my Mom.
For the Nightwish experience follow the list of Gabriel. Floor solo try the 'covers' of 'shallow' and 'phantom of the opera' from beste zangers (tv show).
Nightwish Army UK popping in for a great reaction. Younger generation i think im in love :)
Hehe thanks!!
Your first time reaction to 'Ghost Love Score' is one of the most honest and sincere reaction that I have seen in over the 19 years that this video has been watched by real people like you, a mother and daughter team that has their own CZcams channel. The founder, CEO, composer and keyboardist is nicknamed the METAL MOZART, Toumas Halopainin. The music as you analyzed is a merge of classical/symphony music with Heavy Metal. The genre is named SYMPHONIC METAL. Welcome to the NIGHTWISH universe. The lead vocalist, the third in NIGHTWISH'S history is the classically trained, Metal vocalist, who I call a Valkyrie Songstress of SYMPHONIC METAL, Floor Jansen. There are so many, many, many recommendations that I can suggest but you will be inundated for song suggestions from hundreds of commentators to your reaction. Again, it was such a pleasure to watch both of your reaction to this masterpiece classic composition from NIGHTWISH. It be my pleasure to subscribe to your channel, your sincere and honest reaction to my first time watching you, converted me to be a subscriber to your channel. I hope that your channel becomes a success for your family. Again, welcome to the NIGHTWISH universe.

Thank you mom and daughter, i really like that reaction👍 i hope you and mom react more nw.
Thank you Mother and Daughter reaction❤ Loved your reaction ❤Nightwish is amazing ❤ Nightwish Army, South Africa 😆
Liked this. Be aware that you hardly scratched the surface of Nightwish. You will be amazed sooooo many times. I promise.
I'm sure others have already commented on this, but it makes me a bit sentimental when you praise Jukka Nevalainen, the drummer in this clip. Unfortunately, due to severe problems with insomnia, he had to step back from the band. I've got problems with insomnia myself and shudder to think how exhausting it must be to tour all over the world with that condition! He's still active behind the scenes though, taking care of the business side of things. As a drummer he was replaced by his good friend Kai Hahto. I've played the drums myself and really appreciate Kai's skills - he strikes me as a really nice guy too, albeit perhaps a bit shy. However, Jukka really had a stage presence that I loved, so it was sad to see him go, no matter how much I like Kai.
As a side-note, band leader Tuomas Holopainen calls this specific style "soundtrack metal" ☺ Even though Nightwish is usually labelled a symphonic metal band, they've got a quite varied sound that draws from many influences, so what you've heard here won't give you anywhere near the full picture of the band's sound.
Thanks for the reaction!
Thank you! I’m sad to hear of Jukka’s condition that made him have to step back. He truly is an incredible musician and I loved watching him perform! I’m sure we will see more of his performances in future reaction videos.
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!! Follow Gabriels format. This will be an amazing Rabbit Hole you are about to enter - Follow it to the end, because you have not heard anything YET!
Ahh, now you've been Floor'd. Haha, she has a ton of amazing videos. Everything she does HAS to be the live version.
Hello "Generation Gap Reacts". Nightwish Army soldier here. If you want to see REAL headbanging "Windmill for Floor Jansen - the singer" check out Storytime at the same concert. Please wait for GABRIELBARDAC. He will let you know everything about the best Metal Band in the World.❤🤘❤
I had the great experience of seeing Nightwish at Wembley and they were fantastic, Floor Jansen is unbelivable her stage presence is second to none, please play more Nightwish ( while your lips are still red )
17:46 The Floorgasm brings yet more converts to the family !! 😁 Welcome Ladies. You are, each of you, one of us now. Just FYI, that’s about 70 minutes into the show, and Floor had been killin’ it the whole way already. Also, that’s 82 THOUSAND people hanging on her every word; so, no pressure on her to Bury that (9 second long)high note.... At 6’1 and 170 pounds Floor is a smiling, singing, dancing, enchanting, stage commanding Valkyrie Goddess, and to me at least, a gift from above. Seeing the whole video of this concert, Especially the Floorgasm changed my life. It made me start listening to music again. I love watching these reaction videos and my biggest hope is that people follow and enjoy the Symphonic Metal path I was led to. Welcome to it.
A breathtaking masterpiece sung by a Valkyrie Goddess… or what Nightwish thinks of as just another day.
💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙

Welcome to the magical world of nightwish best live band on the planet imho. More please.
As the expression goes, "You ain't heard nuthin' yet!"
I'll just leave it at that.
Good, honest reaction to one of the best live bands around. That was the 12or 13 of 15 numbers played that night in front of about…. 80,000 crazy night wish fans. Welcome to the Nightwish army!!!!
Nightwish is probably one of the best group in the world. These musicians have year of studying music. They write the music, lyrics and are absolutely amazing. When they featured Floor for a tour it sold out everywhere in minutes. She has studied Classical and Opera and is absolutely at the top of the scale when it comes to singing and performing. There needs to be more group's like this. They are all top notch musicians. Their instruments are set up differently than most. Not just for looks but ease of playing them. Keyboard is not straight like most but the player has one side lower than the other so he can play it more easily. They are amazing, I think they make everyone in the crowd sweat with the power of their performance. Incredible 😉❤️. You have got to listen to more of them featuring Floor Jensen. Freaking unreal.
Welcome to the beautiful abyss that is Nightwish
Funny what you infer about Floor Jansen's character. Floor is the most empathic and soft character in real life. But she can also be wild. Floor is a living juxtaposition, as is Nightwish's music. Floor started performing at 16, did music university (partly) and the Dutch Rock academy with a focus on musical theatre and (of course) Rock music. On youtube you will find many extremes. The oldest recording on TV (and YT) is from 2002 (at 21 y/o) After Forever "Monolith of doubt". Het wildest is in her own band Revamp "Disdain (live at pinkpop)" and if you want true opera Floor sings "O mio babbino caro" on Dutch TV. She just started a solo career (at 40 y/o) but stated that she will continue serving Nightwish as well.
Welcome to the wonderful world that is NIGHTWISH. It's an incredible journey. Storytime from Wacken 2013 should be your next listen. I saw that Gabriel Bardac has commented to this reaction. Follow his advice he is one the wise sages have and he will not lead you wrong.
Thanks guys for that positive reaction, & welcome to Nightwish, which is symphonic metal. You really are starting a beautiful ride,
& this is only the tip of the iceberg with music you have never heard before, & daughter, I think the phrase you were searching for
maybe "Sea shanty music ", anyhow enjoy this ride, & may I recommend Gabriel & his advice..Take care..
Yes “sea shanty” is perfectly said!
I love how others have picked up on how this performance gives you the feel of an epic movie. You also mentioned a pirate feel and yes, at one point it does give me Pirates of The Caribbean vibes. This song, this performance, is an adventure that takes you trough different times and places. It is simply amazing, and you did a wonderful job reacting to it and mentioning these all these different tidbits you noticed.
Nightwish Army Italian Division reporting for duty. Really nice reaction, you now have a new subscriber. Today you have only just begun your journey into the world of symphonic metal and Nightwish. All members are musicians of the highest level as you have seen and commented and about the singer, Floor, she is one of the most versatile singers currently in the music scene because she can sing whatever she wants without problems (opera, metal, pop etc.) . Don't stop your journey with Nightwish because every single song is different, their music is like a roller coaster of crazy emotions. Welcome to the Nightwish family!!
The Nightwish hole is a deep and fulfilling one. You’ll love it! Welcome to the family!
In the Netherlands you can vote again for the Top 2000, until 5 December. This is the chance to promote Nightwish and Floor here. At least there will also be some Metal on the radio in the Netherlands. So Nightwish community grab that chance.😊😊🙏🙏🤘🤘
dear dear ladies. welcome to the wonderful world of nightwish i was lucky to see them live 2 weeks ago in my home town in the UK they are without doubt the best band i have seen live and i am old enough to have seen a lot of classic bands live , zepplin sabbath queen we call floor " the valkire godess" they go from that,, to out and out heavy metal no 2 songs are the same she also has a stage move we call the windmill and she gives people " floorgasams" she also has sung on a dutch TV song called " beste zangers" her phantom of the opera duet with henk porte is something else ...
listen to any song from this live concert and you will be amazed .... all their music is great
She's a goddess and extremely talented along with alot of work put in to execute this on a nightly basis. You can't help but appreciate this
I seen Nightwish this past May in Massachusetts, one of the best concerts I've ever seen well worth traveling half way across the US. 💜🎶🎹🥁🎸🎤🤘
Sarah Brightman was the first Christine on Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Phantom of the Opera". This singer has sung with Henk Poort who played the phantom in the Netherlands stage version of "Phantom". They were on a show together called "Beste Zangers" and Floor Jansen and Henk Poort sang the title song "Phantom of the Opera". Floor is the third singer of NW. The first singer, Tarja Turunen sang the title song with NW (with the bass player) just before she was fired (long story). I think that Floor recently sang with Henk Poort on stage with NW recently, but I haven't seen it yet.
I'd love to see Floor sing some of the other songs from "Phantom" such as "All I Ask of You" or "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again". They were beautiful.

welcome to a very special band, all the artist are masters at their chosen field and have come together to form an amazing band. Mom had it right, Floor Jansen is our Valkyrie Goddess. With her voice she will call us to battle, bring us to tears, send shivers down our spine, and on occasion summon a demon, so come down the rabbit hole that is NW, it is a journey I believe you will enjoy.....I know I do....👍👍🤘🤘
For me, the Nordic music scene is where it’s at right now for fresh new music. There are so many amazing bands and solo artists to choose from covering a range of genres. To continue the journey try something from each of these ladies - Eivør, Aurora, Agnes Obel. And from these bands - Wardruna (with Einar Selvik), Dirty Loops.
Wait for Gabriel and follow his list, you will be hooked!!!!!!!!
Nightwish fills stadiums everywhere they go.
Hello mom & daughter.
Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish.
They are from Finland.
And they make symphonic metal.
What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do.
Nightwish really hits you in your heart.
And that's what makes this band so unique.
Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch.
There were 82,000 people there.
I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion.
Watch out for the Nightwish Army.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
this dutch warrior princess take''s your soul,and takes it to all the emotions in a blink
Great reaction to this epic piece of music and hello from the Canadian branch of the Nightwish Army. General Gabrial should be along soon with all of the background info on the band and a long list of other Nightwish songs to check out. I discovered this band about 4 years ago and was blown away by them. I grew up in the 1970's listening to groups like Pink Floyd, Genesis, Led Zepplin, The Who, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Yes, Jethro Tull, Rush, Kansas, and many more. I started checking out reactors reacting to songs from the groups I knew so well, and I noticed that on these channels was requests for them to react to Ghost Love Score. One day I decided to watch one of these videos and the rest is history. Because of that I have discovered that there are many great groups like Nightwish, Epica, Ayreon, Wintersun, Kamelot and others that are producing music at a high level like back in the 70's. I am 62 years old and Nightwish has renewed my love of music again.
Floor Jansen & Henk Poort-phantom of the opera-beste zangers
Greetings Generation Gap Reacts! Nightwish Army Nebraska division checking in. I have enjoyed watching your reaction to Nightwish and our Goddess Floor. It was great to see you experience your first Floorgasm. I look forward to seeing more Nightwish reactions from you. Follow the wealth of information that Gabriel left for you and you will not go wrong. Expect to be surprised each time you listen to Nightwish. My favorite song changes and is usually the one I just listened to.
I have always said that Floor is a Goddess because other singers may be good and sound great, but they still only sing to your ears while Floor sings to your soul. You feel everything she sings deep and it can make you emotional even if you aren't normally an emotional person. She is simply stunning in so many ways.
My son and I went to their last show in London. Floor has a stage presence that is so immense you almost lose the rest of the band. It's effortless, but she not only engages hugely with the audience, she brings the band with her too, so you don't lose them. Voice of an angel, presence of a Valkyrie. Nightwish as a unit are so good that you don't go and listen to their show, you experience it. They aren't just there behind Floor, they are everywhere.
As soon as we left the gig the first thing my son said was "We need to go and see them again".
The song starts off alternating between 5/8 and 6/8 using a lot of bass and floor tom. Then changes 9/16 and 12/16 where you get a lot of bass double peddling, and bringing the crashes in. Before the very obvious, but very clean switch to a standard 4/4 for a couple of bars before the vocal comes in. yes, I play drums, yes I really like this song 😂
Welcome to the Nightwish's rabbit hole! You've just opened the door of lyricism, poetry, literature, history and science accompanied with symphonic metal music. Awesome reaction and comments from both of you! Greetings from Nightwish's Army Department of Greece!
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal ladies. You have just been introduced to the Dutch Valkyrie Queen of symphonic metal. She can sign almost any genre and has both classical operatic and musical theater training. Wait until you see Floor go hard into her Dutch windmill style headbanging. It is amazing and miraculous that she just stand up straight and starts to sing perfectly. You have only heard a small sampling of Floor's vocal capability. Jukka the drummer is so much fun to watch as well as the rest of the band. Great commentary ladies. I look forward to seeing you both again very soon. Gabriel below will guide you on a journey of discovery if you so desire.
Greetings from Nightwish Army, Palm Springs, CA! This epic song...is just an appetizer..
EXCELLENT! You have discovered an AMAZING band with a one of a kind singer! Really enjoyed your reaction. This show was truly perfection.
I'm pretty close to your mother's age. I'm a huge fan of Nightwish.
The style of music is called Symphinic Metal. The female front is Floor Jansen. At the timing of this video she was the new lead for Nightwish.
Anyhow, the style of the music is popular in Europe.
Evanescence is like the poor country cousin to Nightwish.
The very first female f front was Tarja Turunen. She's on par with Floor. Jansen.
This is at Wakken in Germany. Huge rock festival.
You should here the song Nemo or Overbrook hills.
I got to see them in 2015 in San Antonio
(fellow, now- former Washingtonian).
There are several symphonic metal groups you might like
