But her early transitions were excellent. Notice she NEVER missed an interval jump from high notes to low notes and up again, just incredible vocal control which Floor has always had. And the last stanza with her powerful straight posture, her arms outstretched and the vocal power she projects over the mass of people is truly wonderful.
The Queen of Symphonic Metal rules!!!
Exactly, I agree
The vocals are out of this world, but she doesn't even have to sing! She could easily just stand there doing nothing, and everybody would stare at her hypnotized, she's unbelievably breathtaking.
Just the way the song was written and composed. She can power through vocal acrobatics when she needs to no problem. Even a Formula 1 racecar lets off the gas occasionally.
Explanation:
Eugene Shoemaker was a geologist and founder of modern planetary science. He studied craters on Earth and on the moon and realized that they were created by asteroid impacts. Shoemaker was the lead geology researcher for Apollo missions, and he also helped train the Apollo astronauts who went to the moon. He himself was a candidate for an Apollo Moon flight, but was disqualified after being diagnosed with Addison's disease. Later in life, he said, "Not going to the moon and hitting it with my own hammer has been the biggest disappointment in life."
Schoenmaker spent much of his later years searching for undiscovered impact craters around the world. He died on July 18, 1997 in a car accident in Australia, where he studied craters.
In recognition of his scientific achievements, part of his ash was brought to the moon by the Lunar Prospector spacecraft in 1999. His final resting place is close to the moon's south pole, in the Shoemaker crater named after him.
The shoemaker's urn was engraved with a quote from Romeo and Juliet:
"And when he will die...
Unpack it and cut it out into small asterisks
And he will make the face of heaven so beautiful
That the whole world will be in love with the night
And don't show worship to the bright sun."
He is the only man buried on a celestial body other than earth. After his death, he was finally able to go where he always wanted to be.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
This song is by far the most difficult for Floor to sing So many words to fit in by the notes. She does a tremendes job..and the ending is all goosebumps for me. Nightwish is master class. Thanks for the reaction.
Eugene Shoemaker, the only human whose partial remains (ashes) are on the moon. Also, it took me a couple of listens before I liked this song. I came to appreciate the dexterity it took to perform it.
so incredibly powerful and she doesn't miss a beat she just raised the bar
I think the muted first part enables more of an impact for the last part. Clever and considered artistry. Amazing song. Thank you for the reaction 😁💚
Floor is amazng when she sings in opera style!
The ending part is also my absolute favorite of this song, sometimes I even just skip ahead lol
,,Tuomas, when can i breathe?!!'' , Floor said when he showed them the song for the first time. That explaines a lot, certainly when you consider that they thought this composition was't possibel to do live.. and then came the lock down et cetera.
Not all songs are written to belt out.
I don't think your comment about the lyrics was too critical, but I do feel it was perfect timing that as you paused to make the comment, the powerhouse vocals were just on the horizon.
I like your reactions, keep it up.
El audio es 100% "crudo", tomado desde la consola de esa jornada. Por eso, no escuchan un sonido "maquillado" como "Wacken" por ejemplo, donde hubo pos-producción. Igualmente, es EXCELENTE como logra sonar la banda y especialmente Floor en vivo y en directo; es una EXPERIENCIA que hay que vivir aunque sea una vez en la vida.
touched by an angel
The difference with other concerts like Wacken is that Hellfest is live and directly streamed while the festival is responsible for the sound. In Wacken, Wembley, Tampere and others the visuals, sound and mix are fully under Nightwish control and Tuomas knows how to get it right. BTW watch the official Shoemaker video ending with a earthset followed by a sunset seen from Shoemakers last resting place on the moon!
The first time, I was a little disturbed by this song, but after listening to it again, I found it very beautiful. Admittedly, it is not as heavy as others but it is a nice trip in space.
If it weren't for the wonderful finale that starts with the Shakespeare quote to then ascend to the heavens with Floor's stellar "Laudato Si", this song would never have made it to my top-10 NW tracks. Hoped that with time, the first part would grow on me but alas. Floor can pull off anything thrown at her, and I seriously think that this incredible luxury may have been somewhat of a trap.
I know Tuomas wanted to "challenge" Floor. Challenge met with flying colours of course. But lyrics and melody just don't jive. The unnatural sounding accents Floor has to apply just to make it all fit takes away from the flow. Like thinking out loud while trying to play the piano. Very hard to get into a groove that way.
Floor has been prone to forget parts of her lines, particularly with this song and in this part. I can totally imagine why. I'd like to forget all abt that forced first half, haha. But then again, it may be precisely why the second part shines all the brighter. So ty for your honest reaction, which clearly resonated with me. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
Floor sings how Tuomas wright the song
Hi..I personally think you can`t compare the concert of Wacken which is a DVD recording to Hellfest where Arte made the recordings with much less cameras and mics...good reaction and thx
I think this is one of the more difficult songs for Floor. She is clearly relieved after she finished it.
🤗🍒🤘🏻
Try Planet Hell from this same concert for "better" vocals :)
I wish Maestro Pavarotti had been alive to witness this musical spectacle. Or maybe Tuomas would have let him sing the ending part. Wouldn't that have been incredible??

Gabriel provided you with a list, you as is your right have decided to ignore it. But the list helps makes sense of the Nightwish journey.
Can I suggest you do playlists, I'm really not in to Agadoo, be easier to watch the reactions to music I like rather than have to search a huge list
Judas Priest, Heading out to the highway, might be a good follow on from this.
What strikes me about this lady is that equally she could easily be an opera singer. She could go down many different avenues and so could the band. It'll be interesting to see where they go, further down the road as their career path progresses
You really have to " read up" about this band and especcially Floor Jansen,She said herself that she doesn't like opera that much (well,lyrical opera whit lots of vibrato) and Nightwish and Floor already have a "busload" of history behind them,but sure,everybody is anxious to hear/see what's coming next.😉
@@strabel803 I had a read of her bio, she interests me and opera doesn't have to be in French or German. Tommy, for instance is a rock opera
@@colrhodes377 Ah,okay,i see what you mean,could be in the future that she
would go for that kind of thing,but than again,why should she,when she is already singing in a band with lots of diversity like Nightwish?
@@strabel803 because singers often do things just because they want to
@@colrhodes377 Ha ha,Well she already does,she has her solo thing and lately did some "Avantasia" songs (you have to listen to that) and what about her cooperation with Ayreon? Look it up ,you will be amazed.
She does more things,that you are probably not aware of.(Maakt niet uit,laat Floor maar schuiven)🤣
Hi Hanier Family. Nightwish fan and subscriber here for you. I also had that feeling about the first part until I had listened to it several times and saw how the first part is designed to set up the last two sections. I'm glad you two are stepping out to sample some of the incredible performances they have done during their 2022 Human | Nature world tour. The fully remastered video and audio from their nighttime concert at the Deichbrand 2022 festival is beautiful to behold and to hear (thank you to Remastercide for the incredible quality). If you want to check some of that out, I have placed links below to every song in that setlist. Enjoy.

It's simply that Hellfest was live streamed and therefore Nightwish's sound engineers couldn't get to it. Having said that - trying to sing those lyrics to the notes is extremely difficult for this particular song. If you have some spare time, watch the official video or the 'Deichbrand' Festival instead. Take good care of yourselves 😃
You look a little shell shocked 😲 there 😂
The Hellfest Show was awesome. Cynthia was right. The vocals in this show was not mixed properly and was a bit in the low side. But that’s not attributed to Floor. This is the sound engineers fault
yes I think your right, she sounded at the background in the start...
@@jws6181 No,no guy's ,don' t blame the sound engineer,this just is not a "belty" song.People sometimes forget that this is LIVE,Floor starts this song with some "acrobatic" singing and not easy to do,they wondered even themselves if they could do this song live.She does a wonderfull job,but dispyte she is a Valkyri,she is also human and this kind of difficult lyrics is hard to
do with much power. For me (retired sound engineer),i think this is a good
live registration. Maby look at it,that this is a ballad song ,not all nightwish songs are "heavy".😉 Oh,and i agree ,the end is astonishing
Good one.
🤩👌💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
If you would like to react to something you may not have heard before, I would recommend the following: the artist Aesthetic Perfection with the song Party Monster
How many people can just hold their arms out for that long?
Wacken is German so the w is pronounced like a v
I am not German, but Dutch, but I think this is not true. "W" is pronounced as "W" Think about Volkswagen, Deutsche Welle, das Verb "wollen" etc.
@@ronaldderooij1774 You're right.
Like ze Tschöemann V? So it's Facken, right? RIGHT?!😃
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 no it's vacken
@@lillihartman9802 Whacken. Because those who saw Floor for the first time got proper whacked.😄
Apart from the W sound, there is also a problem with A because American English doesn't really have the normal A sound like most other languages do. It always gets complicated, trying to explain to a monolingual English speaker how to pronounce a foreign word correctly. Usually, it's hopeless.
The studio version of this is much better, this song doesn't do as well in the arena with the crowd noise.
If you took the time to see what the song's about before badmouthing it, you'd understand why it was sung that way. It's called repect. I'm sure others will tell you. I've wasted too much time already..
We actually liked the song. We don't remember badmouthing anything.
