dude you have not seen anything yet.and for the GODDESS FLOOR there is nothing timid in what she does.BUCKLE UP
Exactly - not timid, everything to fit the song. It's called dynamics.
Thank you for continuing to react to Nightwish's music, new subscriber here of course.
Happy New Year 2023! All the best, from Romania!
@Gabriel: new reactor RadosT from Bulgaria waiting for your guidance! She also reacted to GLS.
And happy new year to you Gabriel. You truly have mantled Ann:s legacy.
General Gabe whats good sir!
I haven't watched NW reactions for a while but this one caught my eye and I thought "Gabriel should be be here as well" and I'm happy that you are! :-)
Gabriel Bardac Brother 🔥🎸🤘🏼👹
Happy New Year 2U2
Rock On 2023
Love from Italy 🇮🇹 "Nightwishsoul"
Hello
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.
Hallo vanuit Zeeuws-Vlaanderen .
met vriendelijke groet Hollandduck
Annnnnndd.... down the rabbit hole we go ; )
Weeeee!!! Haha!
Lol! Floor just reaches out, grabs new reactors by the throat and drags them down the hole!
@@ronaldmcrae4896 I just saw that visually. It was awsome to see Floor doing just that! 🤣😍😇
Choir and orchestral parts are played via a pro tools session. Tuomas (keyboarder/composer) plays what he can live, but ran out of arms :-)
the best singer and the best band on this earth...Nightwish is a genre of his own.
greets from the Netherlands
and the best female singer of all time
@@billytaylor4498 yeah of course I meant Floor, who else?
6 seconds into the song!
“Epic”!
You just witnessed one of the greatest female singers on the planet 👌 her versatility and stage presence is off the chain 🤘
Floor is a master of stage presence. She can dominate the stage, share it or fade to the background. I've seen her do all 3 depending on what was appropriate for the moment.
For "gritty" vocals with Floor and Nightwish, try "Yours is an Empty Hope" - Wembley 2015. For Floor vocals gritty enough to use as sandpaper, here she is with her previous band, Revamp: czcams.com/video/SNPesLFTnUg/video.html
"Gritty enough to use as sandpaper"
"euarghaaaa"
I'm learning a lot of science here.🤓
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 There'll be a pop quiz next week ;).
Wow! Never saw this! TNX
@@anaguq4651 INFIDEL!
Don't worry, we will guide you from the light. What else have you not seen? Maybe this: czcams.com/video/LjvXo5GRvxI/video.html
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 I love that answer, and sure enough, you can hear it, see it, and feel it from your toes to the top of your head. In short, down to your bones.
Wants some growls from Floor, try Yours is an Empty Hope Live at Wembley 2015🤘
I was at their concert four weeks ago and yes - although sitting somewhere in the back had to wear ear protection too.
Your going to love the wide variety of talents from these musicians! Enjoy! 😊
"The Singer" is Floor Jansen. The VALKYRIE QUEEN.
I concur
oh sweet memories .... Wacken 2013 fourth/filth row together with 80^000+ rock and metal heads .... it was an amazing time ....
I AM GREEN. I ONLY HEARD ABOUT THEM A FEW YEARS AGO, NOW MARCO IS GONE AND THE NEW BASS PLAYER IS TALLER THAN FLOOR.
@@mikensonny1 Marco was also taller than Flor. you can see that on several videos. Sadly Jukka Koskinen (new bass player) not a singer. looks like Nightwish and Wintersun slowly merging.
just a site note .... oh ... how I miss Jukka Nevalainen he was such a awesome drummer. he had power, passion and was a very melodic drummer. a good metronome but also very passionate but did accentuate each stroke. his double paddle work will always be remembered-
Let's go! Love Nightwish, hope to see even more!
If you liked this one, you will love all of them. Tuomas/keyboards, founder, composer, does not write filler songs. Some of the instruments you heard actually came from a backing tape compose with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Choir sounds are from real choirs. If you want some grit from Floor (she can sing every genre) then I suggest ‘Yours is an Empty Hope’. 😄🤘 czcams.com/video/DuwY1d-KIss/video.html
I concur
Check romanticide next
I concur
Make sure u watch Floor's mouth when watching Yours is an Empty Hope.
I concur
Wacken 13 GLS is possibly the most heart and soul stealing performance ever.
In reality anything from this concert is amazing, it's lightning in a bottle!!!
Nightwish is so amazing. Enjoy your journey of discovery!
You'll do well with the NW fan base.. Many of us really appreciate the deep technical analysis, as long as you pause at "good" places or at least rewind 5-10s to play it through :)
Good one. That was the 13th song of 15 in the show try any other they are all great, Song Of Myself, Ghost River, Romanticide, Last Ride Of The Day, Nemo etc.
Super reaction... Wait for Gabriel!
You can safely react to more of Nightwish's music 🙂 They have made so much good music for so long. All tracks are very different and yet easily recognisable. They never get boring to listen to.
Roadtrip, pack a lot of snacks!!
Yes Jukka is amazing! One of my favorite drummers.
Tuomas the keyboardist and main song writer, plays mainly strings in a percussive fashion to counter-balance the legato orchestration or piano. The orchestra and choir are recorded live with the London Philharmonic and then played live with backing tracks using Pro Tools, see the video below for their live rig.
czcams.com/video/6dhSkfbHXJc/video.html
Albums credits dont say what orchestra has been used. From where did get is The London Philarmonic ?
@@charlesxavier.. I may be mistaken, but I remember it being mentioned in one of the making of videos for EFMB, video #8 I think, they mention that the instrumentalist worked on movie scores like Star Wars movies and pretty much most movie scores are recorded with the musicians from the London Philharmonic.
Also from the Wikipedia article for the album Once:
Once utilizes a full orchestra in nine of the eleven songs on the album; unlike Century Child, Nightwish chose an orchestra outside of Finland, the London Philharmonic Orchestra, which has been featured on every album released since.
Welcome back to the Nightwish Army!! YOU ARE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!!!!!!
We are here...we are everywhere...Nightwish Army
I've been wearing ear plugs to concerts since the late 90's. I learned after the first 15-20 concerts, that the ear ringing thing for a 24-48 hours afterwards was no longer "cool".
And again a soul is taken by our Dutch Valkyrie Goddes of Metal, more Floor Jansen, watch the Beste Zangers 2019, she sings in different styles and different languages, there is even a video with all the endings of GLS and a video where she even sings the Yellow Pages on a radio-show ... She sings O Mio Babbino Caro and from the gamecube game Final Fantasy Chronicals, Sound of the Wind.. She is working on different projects of Ayreon too, Valley of the Queens and The Day The World Break Down are good ones to start with...
Hey Mattie, I hope you realize that you were listening to the most versatile female singer in world Floor Jansen. Nightwish will enrich your life ( like with me). What a band, what a singer
@@pietkeizer5279i think you reacted to the wrong person..i'm not Mattie..🤔....🤣🤣
Great reaction and greetings from Finland. The northern division of the Nightwish Army reporting. More Nightwish and our Valkyrie Queen please. - It's easy. Just follow the list from the link gen. Gabriel Bardac gave you when you first time reacted to Nightwish. Those are considered to be the best versions of Nightwish's songs in CZcams.
Finland is a BOSS country
Nightwish Army incoming and man I loved your reaction. Taking your time to focus on not only the fabulous vocals, but every aspect of the music as well. Loved it!
New subscriber gotten :)
#WeWereHere
The background track was recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra
Where did you get that information?
Marko wasn't the main singer of the band, but he is absolutely a top-notch lead singer
Gotta love how he basically joined the Finnish "Masked Singer" to have some fun, and simply won the whole thing right away 🤣🥰
If you want to hear gritty growling vocals from Floor Jansen, look no further than 2010 Grasspop when she was with her former band ReVamp performing "Disdain".
Nightwish Army USA (Pa) division saying you ain't seen nothing yet , Floor Jansen is the Valkyrie Queen , May I suggest there song "Storytime" from the same show Wacken Open Air Festival 2013 where they were the headliner in front of 82K - czcams.com/video/iNWH7lNe9qI/video.html
Love "Storytime". One of my favorites! Romanticide" another favorite.
nice bassoons in that interlude.
You like gritty vocals? Check out "Yours is an Empty Hope" from Wembley, she uses a little bit more of "euarghaaaa" there (I hope I spelled it correctly, I'm not familiar with these scientific terms).
🤭
I was about to say the same... I don't speak music science too fluently, can't brag about superb spelling there either.
@@VivK-Real Luckily, there are people like him to educate us peasants.😄
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 yes!!! We're lucky 🤩

Two words... WILD CARD!
You just opened Pandoras Box and have NO IDEA what you're getting in to here. World Class Musicians and the worlds best lead singer Floor will surprise you in every freaking song. Nothing is by the book... GOD I LOVE THIS BAND 😍😍♥️♥️🇩🇰🎸🎤🥁
The first experience to Nightwish should be this song and this performance.
Whoo! Great analysis. Subbed
👋🇫🇮Greetings from Finland! More Nightwish Wacken 2013, please🤘😍!
Let's GOOOO! MOAARRRR!
17:02 The Floorgasm brings yet another convert to the family !! 😁 Welcome Brother. You are 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 !! 💙💙💙

RIP Ann Waychoff-Commanding General-Nightwish Army
This is the holy trinity of Nightwish songs live with Floor fronting...

The background vocals and orchestra are on a backing track that the band syncs with via a click track. There are two choirs, a children's choir whose name I can never remember and an adult choir "Metro Voices" of London. The orchestral part is sometimes a synth string pad and sometimes the London Philharmonic Orchestra on a. track. Here's a short video where the relationship between the band, the choirs and the orchestra is shown: czcams.com/video/kbvXn6b_yec/video.html
You were asking about Floor Jansen's distortion and growling. Well here's a fan made collection of just that: czcams.com/video/GZ6UVdjyNsw/video.html

"Ghost Love Score" is specifically mentioned as being played by the orchestra.

Floor can do it all vocally from growling to classical and everything in between, not to mention the best stage presence since Elvis.
Im assuming you're into heavier stuff ....
React to " Yours is an Empty hope " live at Wembley

Nightwish is a big treat for true music lovers,you will see ;)
Yes, this is one of the most epic live performances EVER. Greetings from the freezing Finland! ⛄❄👍
🤩👌💥💯
An excellent choice for the first reaction to this new year 2023.
Keep on rockin with this magical band!
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
I would go with yours is an empty hope next then. Lol
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! Gabriel Bardac entered !
Floor her name is derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring, Flora.
Floor Jansen is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy.
Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F5).
She can sing from classical to belting and raspy vocals like screaming and death growls. And she's also a voice coach and teacher to boot. Plus, huge vocal nerd 😉.
Floor Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. She studied musical theatre and a year of opera. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon (Second singer of Nightwish after Tarja) as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour (And she had to learn the set list in 48h). On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020.
And the Master of that is Nightwish is:
Our Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen (founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish)
Tuomas the keyboardist writes about 95% of Nightwish songs, music and lyrics. He also composes the music for the backing track they use. It is recorded in London with musicians from The London Philharmonics. Pip Williams helps with the orchestration. There are two London based choirs too on the backing track, the other one is a children's choir. And of course with a synth you can do a lot.
This was recorded at the 2013 Wacken (pronounced Vahken) Open Air festival in Germany in front of an audience of 82,000 people. The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival.
We hope, that there is more coming. We are on Standby mode for now ....
NWSU 🤘😎🤘
I almost died of laughter when I saw your F5🤣, in this video, in the song ghost love score at the end, Floor rises in a chesty voice much higher than F5, F5 it's too low compared to the highest Floor note, the highest note Floor in video concerts on youtube it F6 note, so it's correct from Eb2 to F6).
@@hamohamo8270 My bad. Correcting NOW!
NW Army UK popping in for a great reaction, welcome to our world.
Hella Mattie, welcome into the wonderful world of storytelling by Nightwish and their incredible talented female vocalist Floor Jansen.
So you just experienced Floor Jansen (pronounce Yahn-Sen). Although the band is Finnish, their 3rd singer is not, she is Dutch, lives with her husband Hannes van Dahl, the drummer of the band Sabaton and daughter in Sweden. Floor was born on Februari 21st, 1981 in Goirle the Netherlands. At the age of 16 she started her career (initially) just as the background singer from the Dutch metal band ‘After Forever’ in 1997, but real soon she took over the lead until early 2009 and the band fell apart. Parallel she studied at the Dutch Rock Academy in Tilburg starting in 1999 where she graduated in 2003 and spent two years on classical training with the National Conservatory. She studied Musical Theatre and one year Opera. She plays guitar, piano and flute and has completed 12 years of music studies. She’s a Light Lyric Soprano and her vocalrange runs from E3 to D6. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons.
On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ‘ReVamp’, which was disbanded in September 2016. In August 2010 Jansen was a guest in the TV program De tiende van Tijl. In that program she sang an aria by Puccini. From October 1, 2012 (while she was within ReVamp, but recovering from a burnout) Floor replaced Anette Olzon as the singer of Nightwish halfway their Imaginaerum World Tour. After one year (shortly after the Wacken Open Air festival concert 2013) on October 9th 2013, it was announced that she was to become the group's regular new front singer.
Is this real live? If you’ll have any doubts watch this: czcams.com/video/6qDrKoZ62wQ/video.html the evolution of Ghost Love Score.
Nightwish, After Forever and ReVamp worked under the same Nuclear Blast record label. Tuomas and Floor know each other since August 20th, 2002 when Nightwish played in a sold-out and swelteringly hot “Hof Ter Lo” in Antwerp with After Forever and Charon as support act.

The best part was the "I wasn't sure about her at first" bit.
London Philharmonic Orchestra played backing track. Tuomas, keyboards, plays lead instruments he chooses as well as arpeggios and chords! London Metro Choir also recorded the backing choir vocals. Floor is classically trained but can sing anything and has - literally the phone book! Her stage presence is massive! Jukka on drums really kills it in the best way - on this and every track! Welcome to Nightwish! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia!
Their albums credits never mention that orchestra. Where did you get that information?
@@charlesxavier.. Pip Williams - who helped with arrangements. Check the album credits on "Dark Passion Play." Tuomas has mentioned it in interviews too.
Hi again Mattie. Nightwish Army subscriber here for you. You can't go wrong with any track from this Wacken 2013 setlist. Glad you got a chance to react to our 6'1" (in bare feet) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yan-sen) and current lead singer with this band. All of their songs are very different from each other. For a couple of grittier performances, check out Yours is an Empty Hope czcams.com/video/vyLsU7Q333k/video.html and Ghost River czcams.com/video/05eitd-EA6I/video.html Thanks again for this reaction.
just follow Gabriel's list, you'll go down the rabbit hole! Welcome to the Nightwish Army!
Every Nightwish's song is universe class.
I always wear earplugs to concerts too, especially when i get to the pitt.
This is a heavy metal festival in Germany. Wacken (pronounced Voken) Open Air Festival. 🙏🏻❤️
Epic standing ovation!
And think this concert was in 2013 end of summer, Floor slotted previous Lead singer's spot from mid 2012. She had been in the band only 8 to 9 months at this point. And pulling songs like that, cudos to her.
The orchestral and choral parts have been recorded in collaboration with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and they play as a background track in many songs in the concert. The band plays in exactly the same rhythm.
Their albums credits never mention that orchestra. How do you know that information?
@@charlesxavier.. It is common background information
The keyboard player writes and conducts the orchestra and choir backing tracks and most of the songs and music. That drummer is one of the best ever, he had to retire for health reasons after seven albums with this band. Europe as you can see is a vastly different place musically then the dead u.s., most of the good bands hail from there, unleash the archers are from canada.
And then he was replaced by a friend one of the other best ever.
This band is the best, never a flaw. And Floor - the most skilled singer ever. When you think you have this band figured out they will amaze you with something new.
I don't think she's the most skilled, but certainly the most versatile singer. She _can_ do some really good growling, but it's not really her thing, so there definitely are better ones. She also doesn't come close to an actual good opera singer (just listen to for example Sarah Brightman, let alone legends like Montserrat Caballé...). But that's why I only _liked_ Nightwish with Tarja, and _love_ them with Floor now - because Floor is so versatile, while Tarja was more or less a one-trick-pony ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty:
What you should do:
Listen to Gabriel.
He knows.
Great Reaction !! I think our Queen captured another soul….:-)
It never gets old to see people freeze when our Queen starts to sing….ohh....and if you are in search of more different styles from Floor...she has it all in store. Trust us.
About Ghost Love Score:
Standing solid as a World Pillar around which the planet revolves, Floor hits "The Note," the crowd loses their shit, the band tears a hole in the fabric of Space-Time, and 82,000 people will never, ever be the same again.
Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
"Romanticide" from that same concert and watch the return of the bassist duetting with Floor !!
@Music by Mattie Reacts!: First, in terms of production, I think you'll like two Nightwish masterpieces: Poet and the Pendulum (Wembley 2016), and The Greatest Show On Earth (Tampere 2015 -- this one is outdoors, and is over 24 minutes long.) The thing is, with Nightwish, Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist, is Nightwish's main composer, and has written about everything from depression (Poet and the Pendulum) to the origin of Earth, and Earth's 4.6 billion-year history (The Greatest Show On Earth).
That being said, I have a couple of other bands that have some amazing production quality: Sabaton and Bloodywood.
Sabaton is a Swedish power metal band that sings about military history. I highly recommend reacting to Christmas Truce, a song about the "Christmas Truce" of World War I.
Bloodywood is an Indian folk metal band from New Delhi, India. They combine traditional Indian instruments with Nu-Metal (2000s era) and electronica. I highly recommend the song Aaj (pronounced "Ah-j"), a Hindi word meaning "today." They have one singer and one rapper, and the singer actually does a lot of growling.
Check out these bands, because I think you'll be impressed.
You haven’t even begun to hear their best music yet do more please. Romanticide would be a great one.
This is the sort of analysis I am looking for in a reaction video.
She has been singing right off a phonebook in a Dutch radioshow, and there is a video from that event too 😄😄
It was EPIC! I laughed so hard when they first handed her the phone book, but she nailed it!!!!
Welcome to Nightwish, one of the best ever bands. I'm a senior citizen, lifelong musician, member of the NW army. Good reaction but too many pauses, you will end up confusing yourself. You clearly know your stuff, but many of us have heard dozens of reactions to this, including by other musicians and producers. Listen and learn from us as well. Gabriel's list is a good place to start. I've been happy to hear NW in concert, Floor is one of the best singers I've ever heard, and I've heard the greats from pop. jazz, prog etc. So versatile.! as is the band. And her stage presence is unparalleled. New sub
Nightwish Army 🤘☝
Sir, the music in the background is also composed By Tuomas (keys) and written for the London Symphonic orchestra and awsome choirs. Yes they recorded it, because taking a huge philarmonice orchestra on tour is undoable and they also have their own programm.
Floor (singer from Holland) is a fully trained classical singer and finishes the opera &theatre class in conservatory and the rockacedemy. She is the female singer with the broadest range and obvious he reaches high notes like F6 like it's nothing. She sings fully operatic, (she did perform opera's) , chest voice and she belts like no other. Oh and she screams and growls. She does this for 26 years, so she knows what she is doing. Her voice together with Marko's (high hopes) is beautiful, they harmonize so good together.
Again sir, this IS the London symphonic you are hearing, prerecorded. You will her them with many of their songs.
Since late 2012, when Floor joined Nightwish, OMG now stands for "Oh My Goddess". "Oh My God" is so las century.
Dropping a like and a sub for Nightwish. Believe me, this is just a tiny snippet of their full potenial. Please keep them coming!
In before he gets here
Hello from Nightwish Iowa! I missed your first Nightwish reaction, but I'll definitely go back to watch that one too.
If you need to pause, please do. I know that I appreciate your insight, your additional commentary, and your description of what we see, and lastly, your education and experience can help educate others too.
I see there are others from the Army here, and I see that Gabriel has been here too. He will give a suggested watch/ react list, one you can't go wrong with.
Welcome!
Nightwish Army Captain David Simmons from Fort Myers Florida checking in!
Dude, I just saw them in Stuttgart! ( Had breakfast with Tuomas!) They are beyond belief!!! This coming from a long time Led Zeppelin fan. Get ready for the Nightwish Army to educate you about the history. Get ready to go down the rabbit hole! Enjoy!!!
Subbed for more geeking out to Nightwish songs! Love the more in depth producer perspective! Keep the reactions/analyses coming. Nightwish is a wild ride.
Miss Floor Janssen is opera trained and went to the school of rock here in the Netherlands.
If you have a vocal style you want to hear Floor Jansen sing, she can most likely do it! She is amazingly talented, just as is everyone in Nightwish!
Check out "Romanticide" for song with a bit more "grit" in some parts.
Nightwith Army, Texas Division reporting in. I subscribed after watching a previous reaction, but failed to mention that pauses are appreciated because that's typically when reactors such as yourselves add the context that I find most valuable. I watch -many- reactions for many reasons and I love that each reactor manages to bring unique perspectives. So thanks for the unique insight. It's really educational and entertaining as well. Have a great weekend.
Please go on reacting to Nightwish. There’s so much more to explore with this band. New Subscriber here for that. Greetings from germany.
Floor is the third singer and the only one capable of singing the rock screaming and growling but rarely does it with Nightwish. Every song (15) at this Wacken 2013 concert was written for previous two singers, Tarja (operatic) and Anette (pop) and Floor joined mid tour with 48 hours to learn the setlist and this is ten months later so well up to speed. By the way, if you heard the original version of this it would not have had the variety of vocal techniques and not the belted ending which Floor added to the song.
Marko is playing Warwick Buzzard, which really cuts through the mix. Warwicks have a lot of bite & punch and Buzzard especially.
Excellent reaction for an excellent song. If you want a bit heavier Nightwish, check out "Romanticide" from the same concert.
Nightwish fan and new subscriber here. I'm looking forward to following you on your journey as you continue to explore this amazing band.
I still remember the first time I Floorgasmed, on the last few notes of her singing during this performance..
So the the orchestral & choral parts are a backing track played from Tuomas's mixing station. They are the London Philharmonic & London Metro Voices respectively Pip Williams composing. The only complaint I have with this version is that the choral parts seem to be quieter than in the past they were much more noticeable. Tuomas doesn't really write gutturals, for Nightwish, other than a little in "your's Is An Empty Hope" with Floor, or "Pharaoh Sails To Orion" & "Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean" (If Tapio is available). For his harsher stuff check out his black metal band Darkwoods My Betrothed. There are however more examples for our metal valkyrie Floor doing harsh vocals with Revamp mostly "Distain" & "Misery's No Crime" or to a lesser extent "Wild Card" & "Precibus". Here is a link to "Distain" from Grasspop czcams.com/video/iNSf64M9uA0/video.html Floor studied one year of opera & three of musical theater at the conservatory in Tilburg but she had already been singing metal for awhile before then. She was 16 when she started singing for After Forever
Great reaction
Greetings from 🇳🇱 🤘
you haven't hear/seen Troy yet and there is 2 replacing members for drummer and bassist.
Good job you pointed out the bass compression and the guy with the ear protectors, never noticed either before.
She is classically trained singer who can sing what ever - even growl (deep low growl).
Thanks a lot
Nice reaction. Enjoying your comment, and happy you found pretty good timing on the pauses. This is one of the best concerts with one of the best band member composition ever at Wacken in 2013. Interesting enough Floor joined the band about half a year before this gig as a stand-in for the at that time regular singer, who had health problems during the tour. She basically learned the set-list in 48 hours and added the final belt in this song as her personal hallmark, which has had an enormously positive reaction from fans worldwide.
Floor became the new main vocalist later after this tour and with her versatility a new chapter with new songs started. One of the most impressive pieces are "The greatest Show on Earth", a massive long masterpiece. There are two notable concert recordings of that song. One in Tampa, Finland with fireworks and awesome timing, but missing the outro in the CZcams video I found. The other one in Wembley with no fireworks, but nice outro including a famous scientific book author on whose work the album of that song was based.
I like both and don't know which one to recommend more.
Such a good reaction. You are up there with Tank the Tech and Julia Nilon. Looking forward to see and hear (maybe a bit louder output) from you. All the best from Sweden
good reaction, thanks from Colorado. 2nd reaction,huh you have barely heard anything what this band can do. am 70 and have seen the best rock bands live in US and euroland. consider NW the best and most innovative since pink floyd, so 40 years or so
We consider this song to be the "introduction song" to Nightwish and what they bring to the table, and while it is an amazing and much beloved song, this is not even remotely their best song.
And that is being said by someone who absolutely is head over heels in love with this song, so go figure what else they have to offer ;)
The level they are operating at is something you do not often see, the attention to detail is incredibly high, and the knowledge of their respective instruments is beyond master levels.
What is a big draw for me in Nightwish is the fact that everyone is on equal terms and they all serve the song, not themselves, you wont see unneeded showboating with them.
Take for instance that perfect solo by Empu, not a note too much, not a note to few, the solo serves the song and doesn't outstay it's welcome, that to me is the sign of a "master" to me.
It is always like that, nobody overplays his or her instrument at any time, the song is leading them, not the other way around.. i just love that and it is something you do not see too often.
I suggest like everyone else, to explore more of this band, you will find that they are one of the most versatile bands you've ever seen and heard.
It's their best song in terms of buildup.
Nice reaction. Romanticide from the same concert shows their heavy sound!
