![NIGHTWISH [Floor Jansen] - The Greatest Show on Earth [Amazing Ending] Vocal Coach Reacts (Analysis)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/l5gnNCPomCc/mqdefault.jpg)
As an old wrinkly who saw Pink Floyd in 1973 Nightwish is the only band that has effected me as much since then .
You must know that the Nightwish community loves you guys. You are good experienced musicians and you have some great insights and personality. Don't be afraid to let them out. Each member should talk about their specialty more. Let Animal loose. We love his vibe and the faces Tomagatchi makes when he is feeling the music are priceless. Great job! You guys give us the fizz.
You guys rock!
Thank you so much. We always try our best not to disappoint.
I concur. I am in love with this group of musicians. They are wonderful down to earth people. I like to know more about them too.
I agree so much
🤘😁🤘
Thank you 😊 so very much!
The BIG EPIC one! 🌎 WE WERE HERE! The history of Earth in 24 minutes of audible art. It is a tree in front of Tuomas’s keyboards, that has some human-like qualities. Troy does play the tin whistle, but this was the low whistle. This is definitely one that has a lot to take in. The thing is, the more you listen to it, the better it gets. It’s a masterpiece that deserves to live on forever.
And it will.
The tree, looks like Groot 😁
@@VivK-Real It does xD Kinda like the figurehead of a ship though I reckon?
@@ElgynsToy 😁👍
Hi Crissy here, Another amazing masterpiece from Night Wish . I have not yet delved deeply into the lyrics on this one...I perceive this song is depicting a variety pack of views on creation. Historical views from more than one perspective I adhere to my faith, All the while I see the artistic expression of Tuomas' observations of the world
I ,myself. being a lyricist/composer find The song is breathtaking. Nevertheless I am who I am { a small human} here to honor a BIG GOD When it came to creation. Big BANG, who made it go BANG? GOD!!!!!!DID!!!! Simply put, no PHD required .
We love you all ,Night Wish and the Night Wish Army, We Love God, and God Bless us all!
Good one guys 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥
Floor: Enter Luca
Marko:. Enter Ionia
Emmpu: Enter Sandman 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Maybe now go back and see some older stuff with Tarja. Maybe the Phantom Of The Opera.
Or for Halloween try Scaretale with Annette singing. Just suggestions
Floor: Enter Life ❤😉
@@AlvenmodFoto 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I loved the reaction, and glad you guys enjoy our favorite band. Thank you always Martine and General Gabriel for all you do pushing Nightwish forward to the world. I am going to post this now to FloorWorld.
Thank you soooo much for that.
🤘🏻
Thank 😊 you!
Nightwish has been massive in Europe for over 2 decades buddy
Try "I want my tears back" from Buenos Aries. A very fun song with great crowd participation. Great reaction.
Yes! ❤
Fun fact: Floor's parents were there in the audience, making Tampere 2015 an extra special concert for her. She was at peak vocal performance there i.m.o. (Marko as well). If you guys feel like doing something a little different than usual at some point (or just for personal viewing), I have a tip for you. There's a lovely mini-documentary about Floor. It's English subbed, done for Dutch TV.
Floor's parents were interviewed right after the sound check at this legendary Tampere concert. There's also a "day after" interview where Floor says something about the terrible burn-out she suffered in 2011, only one year before she got that famous phone call from Tuomas. And then there's Tuomas' famous words "She's right at home, doing this".
So here goes, Floor "back to school" with her former classmates from the Rock Academy: "Floor Jansen in Dutch show Reunion (Tampere 2015)". If you guys are interested I'll post the link in a follow-up comment so as to avoid possible YT filters putting this message in your "spam" box. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
if you want to know more about Floor, this documentary is worth watching
Okay you guys, so here's the link to: "Floor Jansen in Dutch show Reunion (Tampere 2015)" - czcams.com/video/zRqqma4kWIg/video.html
A few tips if you'd like to react to this gem:
- Make sure to use this particular version (others get out of sync)
- Just to be sure: captions on
- Make the screen as big as possible, so that viewers can read the subtitles
Cheers!
Did ya'll catch the small Metalica guitar rift? This was a special show for Floor because her parents got to attend.
Yeah, there were snippets memorable human creation in that section, like Bach & Metallica...very cool how they acknowledged & managed to integrate such works.
New subscriber here. I was brought up with Pink Floyd, Queen, Creedence Clearwater Revival etc. in the 60s and 70s. Then last year as a 64yo, I discovered Nightwish. I listen to them everyday and they helped me through the passing of my Mum 3 months ago. Love Nightwish and wish I had come across them sooner. Nightwish is an experience, musically and emotionally. Love your reactions and you have got a lot more hear over the next few months. Cheers, Rich
Same here growing up with the bands you mention including my go to band for 45 years... the Electric Light Orchestra (E.L.O.) I discovered Nightwish and Floor 11 months ago and have been blown away by them ever since. I now have two "go to" bands 🙏😊👍
@@PaulOutdoors Grew up with the great 60's and 70's bands and I feel the same way about this. You here a lot of people complain that rock died here, but it is alive and well in the rest of the world.
So sorry for your loss. We know how hard that must be for you. We've lost loved ones too. Thank you and God bless.
Two more things: Floor's wonderful and supporting parents were there too, crying, very proud of their daughter. And regarding the credits: even their bus driver was listed.That alone tells you a lot about what sort of wonderful, humble people these guys are.
You guys look like four little kids that went to the zoo for the first time and had no idea what to say or what to do so you just sat there awestruck!!! Here is the incredible part you guys just said what the world do you do after this what do you do for an encore? The amazing thing is that you guys have already been through the three big songs greatest show on Earth ghost love score and poet and the pendulum but you still have only tapped the tip of the iceberg...... I've been a fan of these guys for about 3 years and I had the pleasure of seeing them in New York City on mother's day of this year and I've been to a couple metal concerts and I've been to a bunch of others I've never seen anyone cry before at a concert until I saw nightwish live!!!
Definitely looking forward to the rest of your journey because it's only just begun....... Greetings from New Jersey!!!!
😅
Since Halloween is almost upon us, you should check out NightWish’s 2 nd singer Annette singing a perfect Halloween song in “scaretale”
You guy's should see epica perform sancta terra live with a full orchestra and floor performs with them
Cheers and thank you.
Yes that one is fantastic
The song is about the formation of the solar system and the evolution of life on Earth. Their Magnum Opus in the opinion of many.
Extra special night for Floor, her parents and sister were in the audience.
The spoken parts are voiced by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, who wrote the books the song was inspired by.
From the 2015 Endless Forms most Beautiful album, the first recorded with Floor and Kai on drums. It has themes of science and reason with inspiration from the evolutionary theories of Darwin and Dawkins.
Troy's part starts with Irish Low Whistle. He has a tin whistle, but that is smaller. ( His part at Wembley starts with guitar with EBOW) Yes ,Kai plays Pearl drums.
The song is divided into 5 parts, the first is entitled 4.6. As in 4.6 billion years- the age of the Earth. The fireworks and keyboard hits seem to equate to the early bombardment of the Earth by Comets, Asteroids, and Meteors.
'Archean horizon, the first sunrise on a pristine Gaia' is talking about the early earth.
L.U.C.A.- last universal common ancestor- the last lifeform from which all current life on earth descends.
Lucy of the AFAR. When found in 1974, it was the oldest human ancestor remains found dating to about 3.2 million years.
Enter rat kind. Some theories suggest that rats will take over after man's time is done.
There was even a section on the evolution of music, which included pieces of music from J.S. Bach, Metallica's Enter Sandman and EDM.
WE WERE HERE !!!
6 people on stage . Tuomas, Emppu, Marko, Kai, Floor, and Troy.
The final spoken part (over the credits) is a quote from Darwin's book 'The Origin of Species' That quote at the Wembley version featured Richard Dawkins on stage with the band while reading it.
Hell of a way to end a concert. 🤘🤘
Crissy, Floor's range is listed as C3 to F6.
Thank you for that.
I80 no v
Nailed it. Completely right.
Master composition. Timing, lights,everthing!!
"How much orchestration?" How many tracks do music artists use these days for their song recordings? 30, 40?
This song was recorded for the album using over 600 tracks, that will tell you how complex the song is.
They had to mix it down to 250 for the stage systems to handle for backing music, and the poor master mixer had to mix it down to 2. There is a multi-part documentary on YT about making this album.
It's sunday morning here in Finland and I'm waking up my neighbours with this song! 😁🤘Nightwish songs are timeless, been listening to their music since 1997, and they just keep getting better! And in this song hearing the whole history of solar system, fireworks representing planets/star forming up and then life emerging from oceans and ending up to the humans evolving from apes to modern civilization is just an epic piece of art!
Seeing NW live was the best night of my life. that was it. 🔥🔥🔥
We can imagine so. Wish we could see them live. Maybe one day.
I love watching new people discover the nightwish rabbit hole and you being musicians make it better because you know what's going on up on that stage, nothing quite like it special and your faces say it all, there are 6 members, God bless
Well, now you've already gotten a taste of the songs. Nightwish rocks! 🦎👹🤘
You follow this up with “The Devil and the deep dark ocean” from their Buenos Aires concert - it’s fantastic!
Nightwish music always contains a story and this is the biggest story of all. The story of evolution and how we came to be 🙂
One of the things, I really respect with Nightwish - besides the Music of course - is that they put the Credits on everyone that are there on the show, no matter if its the "drone crew" or tech guys.
Because if it werent for them, things like this would not be possible.
Even the tour bus drivers!
Another great reaction to a great song. Thank you.
Nightwish - Sahara, live at Tampa, USA is also a banger
Since 1998 no other band has impressed me like Nightwish 😃 It’s just magic. Thank you for a great reaction. Why not continue with the Wacken show from now on! There are so so many great songs
Excellent work as ever by Martine and Gabriel promoting this great band and their fantastic performances. There isn’t a band out there that has better recorded concert performances than Nightwish. And the playing and singing is always immaculate.
Q: "What do you follow that up with?" A: Another ground breaking album Human | Nature, that they are currently on tour supporting. I would suggest the songs of this album in order. One leads into the next.
I concur. Human Nature from top to bottom...mind blowing indeed.
Greatest show on earth and the greatest reaction on you tube.
Awesome reaction guys!😁🤘
Might I suggest "Dark Chest of Wonders" or "Song of Myself" from Wacken 2013 next or "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" or "Slaying the Dreamer" from Buenos Aires 2018!👍
Great suggestion!
I concur, those are great suggestions. I especially love Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, were Marko is the Devil and Floor the mermaid. And Song of Myself is also my personal favorite. 🫶🤘🇳🇱
I concur !! 👍👍
I concur
I concur
Tuomas impressed me every time again, his musical brain is out of this world.
His latest album Human and Nature,
Is the latest peace of Art. 🍀
A Just discovered your channel and think about this track. I dont think its gonna be that fast here. Thanks you, i really love all of your reactions
Glad you enjoy it!
There are so many “hidden gems” that Tuomas included in the lyrics & the music.
19:00 The musical tributes include animals, African tribal drumming, then through the Gregorian chant in Dies Irae (Mozart), Bach’s Minuet in G Major followed by his famous Fugue in D Minor, followed by American banjo music, Metallica’s Enter Sandman riff (!!!), finally ending in Rap/Hip-Hop and 90s dance music.
Pretty Good isn’t it?!!
Great reaction.
I think you can follow this up with I Want My Tears Back Live at Bueonos Aires (amazing atmosphere and the crowd goes bananas:)
Or from the same show Devil & the deep dark Ocean (epic vocal battle between Floor and the Devil (Marco). (animal will love this one ,Kai goes animal mode on drums:)
Oh and Floor looks even more like Xena in this show....
I recommend Nightwish's cover of Phantom Of The Opera, live. Best version ever.
Great reaction, now maybe some of their Buenos Aires 2018 concert like 10th man down, Devil and the deep dark ocean, Slaying the dreamer, Kinslayer etc etc
Love you guys! A great one to react to after that would be NIGHTWISH - Shoemaker (Official Lyric Video) czcams.com/video/Rjp_DfvJimg/video.html Floor takes it to an entirely new level on this one. When they first recorded this, they figured it would be too hard to do live - but it is now on their regular setlist, and they do it live at every show.
Nice reaction, another band to try is sabaton out of Sweden. Them and epica are touring together and both bands put on a great show. Side fact, the drummer of sabaton is floors husband. The write songs about history, battles, war, heros.
This reaction made my day :D I love this band and The Greatest Show On Earth is one of their very finest masterpieces. I´m always speechless with tears in my eyes after seeing this. Wow!
Nightwish Army UK popping in to shout WE WERE HERE
I had the privilege of seeing them on their recent U.S. tour, in a tiny venue holding less than 2000 people. My luck, to be able to see them so up close and personal, but our shame that so few people in our country know about or appreciate artists like this.
Just started reading " The Greatest Show on Earth " by evolutionary bioligist Richard Dawkins who not only is an Emeritus Fellow at Oxford University in the UK but is ALSO THE NARRATOR in this piece and whose book inspired Tuomas to write this epic piece
Loved your reaction. This masterpiece has left many of us speechless and after hearing it countless times, I still get chills when listening to it. If you listen to the album version, this song gets all the more beautiful. You'll hear soundscapes that make it extra special. I hope you take the time to look at the lyrics too, because they are so meaningful and beautifully (and poetically) put together.
It's good to hear that you're actually getting inspired by their music. It inspires me too, as someone who loves to write (and is a copywriter by profession). I'm already looking forward to your next reaction. Take care!
Like we said in the video "goose bumps on my goose bumps" Thank you so much and God bless.
The Greatest Show on Earth, is my opinion, is Tuomas' greatest accomplishment! It is a masterpiece! I get goosebumps on top of goosebumps every time I watch that video!
That is Groot in front of the keyboard stand.
My brother and my sister in law were there. I bet they never ever forget that show.
Hello there, now that you've watched GSoE, you should know that Tuomas felt he had more to say about this topic. Unfortunately, he did not know how to go about it. Fortunately, at the end of the tour, NW took a sabbatical. During that time, Tuomas, Troy and Tuomas's wife, Joanna Kurkela started working on a project that had been on the back burner for a number of years. That project became "Auri", a wonderful album with a different sound than NW. It was during that time that Tuomas got his "Aha!" moment and knew how to proceed the continuation of his GSoE story. The continuation became the next NW double album entitled "Human :|| Nature". It was released just as the world was shutting down for Covid-19 and tours were cancelled. The first CD of the album is the band playing (Human) and the second CD (Nature) is an orchestral composition that is Tuomas's love letter to Nature. There is no singing except Floor's intonation plus you'll hear Troy & his pipes and whistles. It is a 30 minute piece of eight movements entitled "All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World". My husband calls it a piece of Heaven on Earth. The video to watch is a NW-approved fan video and not the official video: czcams.com/video/RnOdQ5WNZJk/video.html Cheers!
Thank you for the back story on this song. It's so amazing. Cheers and God bless.
You might run out of superlatives when watching Nightwish live performances 🤘🤩🤘
Perhaps you might think I'm pulling your legs if I said that is not "the big one" in terms of their performances. But, it is not. You will find nothing but love here in the Nightwish family and some of our newer brothers and sisters may not know yet. I have been a fan of this band since 1998. It still gets much better! Try "The devil in the deep, dark ocean" Live in Buenos Aires 2019 next and you will see that there are many levels yet to climb with this band. And if you like that one, it still gets better!
Can't wait to hear more.
I concur! Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean is rapidly becoming my favourite NW song. Replay value off the charts! Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
'I want my tears back' from the Buenos Aires show is also pretty kick ass : )
@@ElgynsToy yes sir it is I was going to recommend that one next.
So joyful to watch you react to Nightwish, can't wait for the next one!
Great reaction guys! Now you've listened to the ultimate masterpiece. It is to me the most perfect way to end the most epic concert. Not for nothing it's called the greatest show on earth, however you wanna look at it. Cheers!
Greetings.
The orchestration is prerecorded at Angel Studios, London by the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
Choirs, by London's The Metro Voices, and Young Voices Children's Choir.
This song was their closer and despite all the belting and high notes hit throughout the show, Floor still managed to hit a few G5s at the end.
How's that for stamina?
This is one of my top 10.
Thank you, great reaction!
Till next time.
😊❤🤘🤘
Fantastic reaction, thank you very much for sharing it with us. Who but Nightwish could make a song about science and evolution so magnificent. And yes Animal, Kai plays a Pearl Masterworks custom drum set with a Hybrid Exotic: Vector Cast snare drum and a Demon Chain P-3000C pedal with Meinl Cymbals. BTW, Epica has been touring the US with Sabaton, a Swedish power metal band you might wish to explore. Their live shows are insane and their music video are cinematic epics. Again, thank you for sharing your journey; looking forward to new music from you. Keep rocking🤘🤘🤘
Animal says thank you very much and rock on!
And the Sabaton drummer is Floor's husband. He is a nice guy, who has said he moved to a very remote rural ranch in Sweden (where he lives with Floor), as he did not like bothering the neighbours with his drum practice. Ref: interview in the Garage makeover Storytime video on Floor's channel.
@@ecbftl If you visit Floor CZcams channel, she has some interesting tours of the ranch and the animals. You need to check out their Irish wolfhound Fenrir
@@alancarter41 Yes, thanks. I have a watched much of what Floor has posted there. She is great! I haven't joined it, but I know she has also created a fan site called Floor world.
Great reaction again you guys👍👌🤘💓
Please also react to Nightwish at the Hellfest Concert from 3 months ago.
Greetings from the Netherlands ❤❤❤❤
Hey guys!!! Me again. You are blowing my mind. Here in Argentina is 2am. I'm a chef and I just end my work day. Last few nights I saw you reacting to this amazing band before going to sleep. Thank you all very much. You make my end of work day much better. Thanks. Greettings from Argentina. Sorry for my English.
Your English is fine.
Thank you so much ,you are so kind!
Thanks a lot
So you guys went right to "the greatest show on earth".. I would have urged you to wait a bit.
But now you have banked all of the "big 3".
And this one becomes better for every time you listen to it.
In your own time, check out the Wembley version. In some aspects it's even better than the Tampere-version 🙂
Awesome!!!
It's a tree in front of Tuomas' keyboards but whomever designed it made it resemble a man too which is a bit confusing. Some people call it Groot. LoL
There is a series of videos showing them making this album. It's pretty cool. Search for Nightwish - Making of Endless Forms Most Beautiful. It shows how they get the Symphony tracks Tuomas writes. :)
Also yes, more Epica please do the song Sancta Terra & to see Simone & Floor do a gorgeous Operatic Duet watch Stabat Mater Dolorosa. Floor and Simone are best friends; schooled and lived together as roomies once upon a time. :)
And check out Unleash The Archers song Awakening (full band playthrough)
The quotes, voiced by famed Evolutionary Biologist Richard Dawkins are from his writings and those of Charles Darwin. Without excluding the creation theory, this song aims to educate on the facts of evolution...and for me, those quotes make me weep. When I'm feeling low, being reminded of the luck of my existence is literally my factory reset!
Flipster, keeper of knowledge...I see how every detail lights you up! And to Animal...Kai Hahto is one of the greatest of a generation...a technician w perfect posture who can change his lead hand from right to left and back...just for fun. He's not showy, but he delivers way below his talent level. There are many drum cams and clinics online that I highly recommend you check out on your own...Kai is a drummer's drummer!
I know all the usual bands are being suggested....I'll give you some space to take them in...but there is a giant world of amazing talent at your doorstep, yet to be discovered.
Thank you for such kind words and for letting Animal know about the clinics. He'll certainly be checking them out. God bless.
factory reset 🙂❤️
"I know all the usual bands are being suggested"... yes... and while some of them are technically just impeccable and seems like art... yet they cannot touch my soul in any form after listening NW... I am a wreck after NW, in a good way...
@@ssc00p you cannot say pink floyd doesn't come close? (I'd never thought i'd say that,but now i do - after being wrecked almost the same way. Not totally, though, Jinjer still does it to me, their gig in Tuska this summer was the best i've yet been to. Also the thing that they'd just given a permit to go around to represent Ukraina, and all the pain, anger and powet they had in their performance surely did it's share.)
czcams.com/video/0t_I_ghmXIQ/video.html
Nightwish so so epic band, wooh.
Wow!!! Enchanting, breath-taking, jaw dropping, phenomenal!!!!! I just love the theatrical, orchestral feel all meshed in with a beautiful Aria and Master-Minded keyboards. I kept waiting for a valiant knight to come riding out of the fog on his great steed and swoop up a damsel in distress; her cape flowing behind as they gallop off to a safe, secret place.....& Live happily ever after!! 😁🗡️🐎🏰😁💜 Love y'all!! 💜
Hi sis found your comment ☺️ 🥰
♥ Each one of 'You' are uniquely beautiful,..but together you all are AWESOME ❤
Thank you so much.
We are all here, as difficult as they might be at times/
Epica is opening for Sabaton on US tour, fun fact: Floor's husband, Hannes is a drummer for Sabaton. It's another amazing band you should check out. Sabaton is a metal band from Sweden and they sing about history using awesome heavy metal music, they also have their own history channel: Sabaton History, where they explain historical background of the events and/or persons the song is about. I believe you might like their song The Last Stand, it's about the sack of Rome in 1527, when 189 members of the Swiss Guard defended the Pope so he can escape, only 42 of them survived and escorted him to Castel Sant'angelo. Nightwish and Sabaton are my favorite bands right now. Sabaton music may not be as complex as Nightwish, but it's awesome, fun and most amazing way to learn history
Another great reactions from someone that truly appreciates great music and understand it 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This was a concert in Tampere Finland that was headlined by Nightwish in front of 23,000 people. The bands Sonata Arctica and Children of Bodom opened. Floor's parents were in the audience, too.
Love your Nightwish reactions and especially to this fantastic performance. Incredible. Keep the Nightwish live reactions coming.
Thank you! Will do!
Not only Beethoven and Mozart, but did you actually notice Bach being used and the riff of Enter Sandman? Tuomas knows and respects his classics!
Great reaction there 🤘 Tuomas ❤ our metal Mozart. This song is more than epic. He is so brilliant making this kind of music. There is no day that I don't listen to Nightwish 🥰
From the darkness, despair and desperation of Poet and the Pendulum, to the joy and wonder of the Greatest show on Earth in two reactions that's how it should be done
My Goosebumps have Goosebumps 😂 great
I think that it is Tuomas' way of expressing his love of nature. You called it Animal & Kamikaze, "Groot". It looks like Groot being crucified to represent mankind's killing of the old growth forests around the world. IMHO.
This is Tuomas' Grand Opus. The members of Nightwish are all lovers of the natural world and all living things. The evolution of life and the universe IS "The Greatest Show on Earth"!
Loved it 2ndHand Souls. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Animal still needs to check out "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" live from Buenos Aires 2018. Crank it up to 11!
Go for it Kamikaze. It takes lots of hard work to achieve the best vocal techniques. Even growling and using fry for distortion on your voice without causing damage to the chords. The sky is the limit if you have the ambition and drive to work to attain you dreams.
You cant compete with NW songs or permormances because they Are all great, just enjoy it. U r great!
Amazing Nightwish reaction again 2nd Hand Souls. 👍
This is their biggest one. The greatest show on Earth is life and how we got here through evolution. This song shows what a scientist Tuomas really is. And they are all amazing pulling this off live.
Marko - enter Ionia
Floor - enter life
Emppu - Enter Sandman
( because Tuomas also incorporated the history of music in this)
And eventually - Enter Ratkind... if we destroy the Earth, the prediction is rodents will survive and start evolution again.
But till then - We Were Here 🤘🏽
Boy if that didn't take you on a journey I feel like I've been around the world watching that holy cow Thomas is a genius this band will just amaze you the more you listen to him they got to be one of the best bands in the world they've been doing this for over 25 years they formed around 1994 and they're still kicking ass and you guys and gal are the coolest thing on CZcams loved hanging with you can't wait for more roll on and rock on
1996 i think? Tuomas. But yes, definitely one of the very best, among Pink Floyd and Ayreon. (Have to mention also Opeth in another category, and Jinjer.)
This one will definitely live on. We were here! ❤️
@@sateentuoksu they came out in 96 bur formed in 94 they went to school together I have there DVD documentary
@@randalladams7692 okay. 🙂 They themselves tell the tale like this: "Once upon a time...
It’s July, 1996. A hidden campfire looms on the island in the middle of Lake Pyhäjärvi, Kitee. Then at midnight, something happens that has far-reaching consequences. Tuomas Holopainen has an idea of a solo project that would play atmospheric “mood music.”
The idea quickly crystallises: the sound would include acoustic guitars, flutes, strings, piano - and female vocals. Guitarist Erno “Emppu” Vuorinen and vocalist Tarja Turunen soon join the project."
I so intensely loved to watch this one with you! Y'all have such a great sense of humour and your banter is absolutely delicious. Every dose of you definitely pushes back my depression for a significant while. You are such a lovable bunch. Keep up all the good stuff that you do, please. Can't wait to hear more of your music and reactions. Warmest regards from Finland.
So glad we could help push back those negative feelings and that means the world to us. Thank you so much for your kind words. Much more yet to come. God bless from the US.
❤️
How sweet! We love you guys!
Hello 👋 Seeta Ann
Another wonderful reaction!!! Can´t wait for the next one. The Nightwish journey is my fav thing to experience with you
This old Metal/Rock head thanks you for your reaction , insight and just your passion for exploring not the rabbit hole of these epic bands but the wormhole because it’s depth is endless. Watching your utter astonishment takes me back over 20 years of the feelings I had when I first heard Nightwish thank you! I am really enjoying your journey! FYI- the magic of Nightwish is the love & respect the band has for each other, the crew & the fans! Tuomas has the ability to make everyone listening and experiencing his art to make you feel that your a big part of it! During the shutdown all proceeds from album sales, merchandise etc went to the roadies, support crew etc to help them thru the lockdown. My suggestion is to start reacting to each concert from the beginning, maybe do two songs each time in sequence. The energy & emotional passion continues throughout the concert not only the band & crew but the fans are emotionally spent! Ghost Love Score at Wacken was the 13th song of a 15th song set. Greatest Show On Earth Tempere was of course the last song of the show. Of course this is just my humble suggestion it’s your journey. Epica- Sancta Terra feat Floor Jansen live at their retrospective show would be a great one to do next! God Bless Rock On Stay Safe!🙏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Tuomas was about to make this 45 min long but had to shorten it because it had to fit to an album with other songs. He tells the 4,6 billion years timeframe now in 23 minutes. There are six members on stage by the way...as you seen the ending bow. This song has so many tracks that it was technically almost impossible to record. The album version is longer having nature voices and sounds of sea etc too.
Love your reaction! It made me cry, they put their heart and soul into everything they do, and they're so happy doing it. It's pure heaven listening to them. Keep the reactions coming, love watching you guys x
As a diehard Nightwishfan i suggest you also check out Wintersun, the formerband of Kai Haito drummer and Jukka bassplayer who is now in Nightwish
Sons of winter and stars,Time,Land of snow and sorrow and my favorite Loneliness
Great reaction guys! Went to see them in May at Lowell Massachusetts and yes, the energy is out of this world. They are so talented and yet very down to earth. Unlike other bands, Nightwish makes you a participant of the show,not a mere spectator. Greetings from Alabama 😎
Wish we could have been there. Greetings also from Alabama.
My suggestion would be to watch Nightwish documentary endless forms most beautiful. It's about the band and the process of making this album and shows behind the scenes from the concerts.. greatest show on earth is on it.. and it shows what kind of gear they use. Highly recommended. Great reactions 😜. Greetings from Finland
Tuomas uses three Korg keyboards: the flagship Kronos for most sounds, the Karma for more modern sounds and the legendary N264 for those chuggy strings sounds. Also, I saw an interview with their recording sound engineer, he said that for this song the band came in with 600+ tracks given all the orchestral and choral lines and the sound effects.
Amazing! We've got to hear the studio version.
Fantastic reaction guys, loving coming on your Nightwish journey with you, its really great to be part of. I think you should ultimately react to everything, the entire Wacken show, Wembley, Tampere, Buenos Aires and right up to this year's Hellfest performance - you won't regret it, it is all amazing 🤘
Well, you've hit 2 of my top three NW songs and videos, the only other top 3 left is Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires. One of Floor's best vocal performances and Tuomos' best writing works.
your souls ain't second hand.. Your's are pure, thanx for that. we love and appriciate that.
You follow it up with MORE NW! LOL 🤣🤣🔥🔥
Thanks for your reaction guys, you are quickly seeing the level of theses artists. There is no band like them in history and probably never be blessed to see someone like them again. They are just beyond phenomenal.
Who'd have thought that a bunch of God fearing hillbilly's could have such insight and taste in enjoying the wonders of such a great band. I'm sure you folks would be a hoot around the campfire. I commend you all for being real and genuine with your reactions. You're all very relatable and that's rare these days...😎🎏
The stand of Tuomas is indeed Groot, he is a big Disney fan!
Troy is playing the Uillean pipes, he can play anything he wants and sings as well.
They pulled out all the stops for this show since it was the band's home country (Finland). Of course Floor is from The Netherlands, and Troy is from Great Britain, but you get my meaning. There's a great show on YT where Floor attended a reunion with her classmates from "The Rock Academy" from the Netherlands...Floor was in the inaugural class of the school, a "School of Rock" there and part of it is behind the scenes action/interviews from this concert., including Floor's parents who attended...VERY good show, and very touching. They are all such GOOD people!
Here's a link...well worth a watch...you get to see just how much of a sweetheart Floor is.

Subtitles are a must since its in Dutch.
@@paulriddle7818 Yes, that's why I used that link, subtitles are available with the 'closed caption' button.
Another great reaction.Look forward to your reaction to Nightwish each day after work.
Thank you and God bless.
All the props are in keeping - Troy is sitting on a giant ammonite.
My No 2 after Poet is Song of Mysrlf. Would love to see your reaction to the live version from Wacken 2013.
Also Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires 2018...
Ребята, спасибо за реакцию. Вы очень крутые. И мега позитивные. Правда получил удовольствие от прослушивания вместе с Вами. Спасибо.
Their latest album is less heavy than previous stuff but shows how impressive Thuomas is. The album was written for Floor so she is not "covering" the previous singers. On top of that, it has songs mainly sang by Marco and Troy. One of the songs actually is a tribute to Floor that she only found out later on. Try to find out which one :)
The album is a continuation of The Greatest Show on Earth. The first song "Music" is such an amazing piece and if you pay attention to every detail, you`ll know what I mean. The first part of the album is a tribute to Humanity (and to a special man - Eugene Shoemaker) with it`s good and bad things. The second part... oh my... the most amazing set of symphonic music I have ever listened to.. ending with Ad Astra. Barely no vocals, except for choirs. The London Symphonic Orchestra at its best.
Please, once you react to the newest album, do it by the order of the album.
Great to see your reaction to this masterpiece. With this one in particular I would however have liked to also have heard your thoughts on the subject of the song, not just on the music.
Thank you for always watching the credits until the end. You will thank me when you watch Christmas Truce by Sabaton.
Can't wait!
Your reactions are so enjoyable to watch so thank you taking the time to do them :) Nightwish fan since 1999
Its October. You guys gotta get your first taste of Annette (Nightwish' 2nd singer, the one before Floor).
You got to react to "Scaretale" live.
Also you have to watch "Greatest Show on Earth" live from Wembley because there's a very special surprise at the end.
There are more than 600 sound tracks!! mixed to create this masterpiece.
But who's counting - not you or us in the Nightwish Army - we are very quiet and just experiencing Richard Dawkins book 'The Greatest Show on Earth' - in sublime music and singing.
Great reaction from you 👍 🤘 🤘
I am a bit sorry that we didn't warn you - Nightwish are highly addictive 😂
Fun fact - this song was originally 30 minutes - but were cut down to this lenght, while they all contributed in the finishing, during their summer camp by the lake. There are around 24 small documentary clips of the making of the album 'Endless forms most beautiful'
By the way - maybe it's time to something completely stripped down to Floor and Troy - but still completely mind blowing. It was because of this Troy started calling Floor's voice for 'Stratospheric'
How is the Heart - acoustic version from Planet Rock Radio 2020 - a promotion tour Floor and Troy did in the spring 2020.
Here is the link

It was 40 minutes long
