I hope everyone enjoys the album! Was a good time at Planet Rock!
You're amazing❤
Love it😊😊Very, very beautiful Floor. So soothing my 👂 4:30 am Arizona morning 😊😊😊❤❤❤🎤🎸🎵🎶🎵
It's another work of art! Sheer beauty!
This album is so amazing! You sang there so beautiful! Your voice and the emotions you have put into those songs moved me deeply! You're the best Floor!🥰🥰🥰 This acoustic version is even better than the original one!
Nightwish songs always sound better and more beautiful when performed live. Great job guys ❤
Nightwish looking for new band member...
NIGHTWISH : so Troy, what instrument do you play?
TROY : yes.
NIGHTWISH : okay! You're in!
more like "yes, and i can sing too. "
@@vladescu3g They are all so talented, its ridiculous!!
;D
LOL. I don't think they were ever looking to become a sextet. Troy is an amazing multi-instrumentalist and all-round nice guy. I'm happy he can showcase his talents with NW. Heck he's been working on their albums since DPP.
Seriously man, youo made me laugh to tears
While people say Floor was an amazing, versatile addition to Nightwish, the same can be said for Troy. His guitar playing is beautifully elegant and his voice fits right in.
I wholeheartedly agree. His voice is amazing, too. The way it sounds when he harmonizes with Floor is beyond beautiful.
I agree. The man is amazing. In Nightwish all members are on top of their game. Insanely good. For me personally when she starts to starts to sing somethings happening to my emotions. ❤️❤️
To me, Floor is the best that happend to Nightwish, but Nightwish was always awesome.
Tuomas wouldn't invite an amateur to join the band, the guy has to be the absolute best in his field.
I agree
Anyone noticed Troy's face at the end
It was like " Yea..She is so good its ridiculous"
That's the look and smile musicians give each other when they know they've absolutely nailed their performance.
he allready knew what before.
In the official video of Storytime, there is a point where Tuomas has a Floorgasm, knowing he's just hired the best female vocalist on earth to front his band.
@@stubones I saw that look in the Buenos Aires as well when Floor lit up on Ghost Love Score. Thoughts racing thinking about all the things he will now be able to write for that marvelous voice.
Well, since we get Floorgasms via the video, imagine how it must be sitting next to her.
Nightwish should record an acoustic album of selected old songs with Floor..
@Tony Montana what is the name of this interview sir?
@Tony Montana Thanks, but can't watch it in finnish tho. Hope this last album happens in a 30 years or so not earlier😀
@Tony Montana yeah, great 😍
Well, hopefully when the time comes for that last album (many years from now, hopefully) Floor will still be behind the microphone.
@@maxmattt yeah, she feets perfect for Nightwish, and its unimaginable to have them a 4 vocalist, so let's hope for Floorgasm in Nightwish another 20-30 years
Nightwish newbie: What's the best Nightwish song?
Nightwish veteran: Yes.
Floor is unreal, Tuomas is a bloody genius. I can't believe this song.
Nice Story: actually this song was written by Tuomas for Floor, describing her experience of meeting the love of her life (her hausband) and having her daughter (a Child of light).
@@marcofrassini9172 Another nice story: Floor's husband is the drummer of Sabaton :D
@@linak.922 Which is another fantastic band with Joakim "i hate my right leg" brøden(this is a fanbase joke haha"
@@marcofrassini9172 How do you know that?
@@Angela-gn8vj listen to the last Floor's podcast on spotify called "metal talks". It's divided in a few chapters, all really nice. One chapter is called "how are you doing?" And there she explain this detail. She putted a link to this podcast on her instagram page. However you can find it on spotify. Floor jansen , metal talk. Go check it out ;)
Safe to say that Floor is one of, if not the best female singer. Amazing
Floor jansen...the best female vocalist in the world...
Remove the word “female” from your statement.
@@bm625 I agree! Floor is definitely one of best vocalists of our time, period. She also happens to be a woman.
@Jason I love Iron Maiden and I love Bruce Dickinson but I have to humbly disagree.
Bener😭
im from the philippines theres are few who knew the band nightwish im the one of them im from the philippine marine corps! and im deeply in love of her voice so powerful as a rock!
I'm a person that hides my emotions. I've lost most of my friends & loved one's over the years. I'm usually stone cold & emotionally numb most of the time. I don't know what it's is about this song. Everytime I hear this acoustic version I think about my parents & my two best friends that have all died. Its a beautiful song from the heart & I tear up everytime I hear it. I remember the good times & how much I miss them.
Same here. I used to be Nightwish fan back in the day, as I followed them since they first came into existence. Then life happened and I lost music, my friends etc. but couple months ago I found Nightwish again, and somehow the music is melting the wall of ice around my heart. I didn't even know the icewall existed, I just thought the heart is scarred permanently.
🫂 hope you're doing well. This song is beautiful. I am also someone who hides emotions and has lost friends as they came and went away the moment school got over. I'm not too old (25) and I'm almost friendless. But found someone where it all came out. I'm glad that a friend of mine appreciates an emo side of me. And then comes this song. These are where we are vulnerable. Thanks to bands like NW to show us who we are i g. ❤
This is the kind of music you get when you're not using autotune. Just pure talent.
And this song is difficult to sing as f*ck.
@@Fermion911 TUOMAS : So how difficult exactly can I write your voice lines for the next album ? FLOOR : Yes
Alexis DEJOUX as shown in Shoemaker, and others on Human : Nature!
@@ajohnwiersemaHonestly when I first listened to the album I started laughing soon after Floor started singing on track 1 "Music", thinking "How insanely hard and mesmerizingly beautiful thas verse has been written !"
I felt like Tuomas wanted to be very clear and direct with us and tell us how high he thinks of Floor's singing :)
@@alexisdejoux7938 I'm not sure if Floor talked about this specific song but in some interview she told that he had to specifically ask for pauses to actually breath during the song because Tuomas was writing so hard parts for the latest record.
52 years old... 40 years of metal... i'm crying like a child... OMFG
U n me both Vince. Class of 84. Still she gets to me.
It isn't that bad
@@maxrav1831 it's wonderful 💪
@@warhammer5690 that's a good way to feel...
@@ThisIsTheMajor how Many legends did we see? 😎 and Floor ... OMG
I'm in tears.. Seriously that good. WE NEED AN ACOUSTIC NIGHTWISH ALBUM.. Sorry for shouting.. Amazing!!
Need too !!!
WE NEED THAT ACOUSTIC ALBUM! Absolutely.
Great! I think that i'm the only person in tears watching this video... I felt a little embarrased hahaha but not anymore after reading your comment...
It's okay no apologies, we are there with ya, hard to see the letters, you just wanted to make sure you where typing out our needs right, so big letters are needed to see through the blurry eyes. Enjoy
I cried too! Love this acoustic version.
Lo and behold, Tuomas ended up getting what he dreamed of at the start of Nightwish: music for campfires. It's just magic, beautiful. Thank you
There is not many singers around campfires that can sing the latest material. That's my only complaint about it.
@@geromino2007 Think of it as built in copy protection :)
According to Troy, they recorded this in one try AND Floor didn't have any idea of what Troy was going to play in the guitar (no rehearsal) or second voices (it is in his FB). This also explains why he smiles in that way at the end.
So, are they the best musicians in the world or what? This is better than the album version (at least for me)
They performed this song acoustic when I saw them in london a few weeks back, it was the first time i heard the song and i refuse to listen to the album version because i know it'll never compare to this or what i heard that night
@@thatperson_whoplaysguitar2455 I was at that performance too! That rendition was fantastic, it was so moving
Nightwish could easily become the biggest band in the world. These tunes are bloody masterpieces! And with Floor as the vocalist, they are sounding as massive as ever! Don't ever let this woman leave this band.
Tuomas once said in an interview that Floor is the last vocalist of Nightwish: If she leaves the band for some reason, the band will cease to exist.
@@SokolRock Floor also said that they couldn't get rid of her even if they wanted to.
So we don't have to worry about that anymore.
And I don't think that there is any person in this solar system who has the guts to step in her shoes.
After 25 years they're never going to do that, you need to stop dreaming. The mainstream music media has no respect for metal - period - and many of them don't even know what symphonic metal is. It would require a massive and hugely expensive charm effort by Nuclear Blast, which is their PR outlet as well as label and that isn't going to happen. I've never heard Nightwish played on UK radio, not once, ever. Settle for what you've got.
@@davidbentley4032 You don't need guts to join just a band. You only needs guts to replace Floor in Nightwish. And that is not going to happen, I mentioned the reason earlier.
BTW, I received the sad message today that Ann Waychoff not with us anymore. RIP ANN.
Yeah !!!
Attenborough: And here we see Floor Jansen and Troy Donockley in their natural environment. Pay attention to the simplicity of the music, and yet the complexity of Floor's singing. In a bit you'll see Floor consuming her natural diet. See how she kills the microphone at the end there. Marvelous!
Haha. Most underrated comment on YT. Pure gold.
definetily the best Nightwish era with Floor Jansen !!!
Enough already, Floor Jansen, stop doing this to me. I'm running out of tears. I'm risking serious dehydration.
Do you want your tears back?
Listen to Elan and join for a drink!
@Silas Rodrigues No I don't, they belong to Floor & Tuomas now, They earned them.
@@silasrodrigues4838 take your thumbs up and leave
If you dehydrate, don't hesitate and drink them
That's a very difficult song for the singer. FLOOR IS INCREDIBLE!!!
Not really. There are a few really hard songs on the album (especially Music) but this one is definitely one of the easier ones.
But despite that... Floor is indeed incredible.
the best female vocalist alive mate
The live performance here is mind blowing though - absolute mastery and brain melting.
@@A.HollerMusic the lighter vocals are rather hard to do for power singers. If floor were jewlie fowlis it be different this is a rather technical song rhythmically.
@@A.HollerMusic it is a difficult song to sing. He's not saying it is the hardest one. Lol
Floor is a goddess. Troy´s the guy you want around the campfire with a gtr.
Troy is magician in real life! He does all sort of amazing tricks. There is a video on CZcams of him wowing the rest of the band soon after they met him after the recording of DPP.
Fun fact, this is how they came up with some of the harmonies for this album: Troy, Floor and Marko sitting around the campfire.
an R34 GTR, or just a GTR?
@@fleksimir GTR Nismo
Floor is a goddess, the union with NIGHTWISH was the best thing that happened for both of them.
I am convinced Floor is a gift from above.
Aren't we all? She's just a very nice gift, much nicer than most of us.. :P
@@inflatable2 A gift that humanity doesn't deserve, but God in his Mercy still granted it to us.
Well the netherlands is below sea level for the most part so you could argue a gift from below ;-)
She makes this look so easy to sing...
Most singers sing what the can. Floor sings what she wants. She can do it all.
I thought the album version was incredible, but Floor's vocal performance here is breathtaking.
I was not prepared for how much harder Floor's voice would hit my feels without the rest the rest of the band behind it. Who would have thought that all that epic Nightwish instrumentation was having a *moderating* effect!?
If you haven’t already, you should check out her performances of Nemo and Bridle Passion from the Muziekcafé session which are pretty stripped down.
The studio version of this song is just okay for me, but as an unplugged performance this is top-notch. It's been 3 weeks since I discovered this band and my chronic depression is lifting and I feel like I'm waking from a zombie trance. Nightwish's music is changing my life, quite literally. Get it, kings!
Nice to hear. I discovered NW in 2019 ( Floor in ‘ De Beste Zangers’, Dutch tv program) and now a huge fan. Indeed it enrich your live. Greetings from the Netherlands
This song is so strong. I juste went through miscariage, a few weeks ago and the "mother with no child" part made me cry again. The heart is bleeding, but it will slowly heal. This song may be the helping hand I need in the lowest moments. Thanks !
Sadness to read. I wish you a lot of strength.
19th of August...I know how you feel...It's the same part for me. And the same path to go.
So sorry to know of this. Wishing you strength and healing. 🕯💔
It hits hard to for me, I'm infertile.
Floor = voice once in a generation, glad to be alive and able to hear her singing
Didn't know that Troy was so good at guitar too. And he can sing as well. The ultimate multi-instrumentalist.
Troy played 5 or 6 instruments in the new album :p
Some say that guitar is too simple for Troy. For example, instead of simply playing lead guitar for "While Your Lips Are Still Red" during the Wembley gig, he used an E-Bow just for fun: czcams.com/video/5V7PKv493Ic/video.html
@@MikkoRantalainen 'for fun' love to see it
If he weren't that good, he wouldn't be playing it for Nightwish.
Troy 's voice is a male angel voice:)of course he can sing:)
These 2 elevated Nightwish to even higher heights. Thanks Troy and Floor.
she's not human ! she's an angel, she's incredible!!!!
RIP that poor little studio because Floor voice just exploding right there.
She did not mean to blow his mind, but that happens to her all the time.
@@paradoxless5596 good one :)
I thought that Troy´s gonna be blown away like a leaf in front of a train horn at that moment.
Damn! Thomas REALLY put Floor to the test this time... and she OWNS the whole fucking scale!
One of the signs of a great composer is that the song is equally good (or better) when it's been pared down to the bare basics of guitar and vocals. Of course, it helps if you have a great musician on the guitar and one of the greatest voices ever singing. Three side notes about crying to Nightwish songs: First, I'm a cynical old man but I often shed a tear to Nightwish songs. Second, I read a review by a Finnish journalist who had listened to the album at the press viewing back in february deep in the Finnish forests. His conclusion was that the entire album was a masterpiece and that he cried like a baby after many of the songs. Finally, I was typing as I was listening. Then Floor turned on the afterburners at 3.50 and I could no longer see the keyboard through the tears, so I had to wait a few minutes until I could finish my comment. That woman is a miracle. Tuomas is a true miracleworker.
I saw someone doing a piano cover of music and it made me cry again. Didnt help that you could tell the guy himself was fully feeling it as he played.
Quite possibly the best vocalist ever... And we are lucky enough to be alive to listen to Her.
I know just how you feel. I am 70 and their songs have re-opened corridors in my life that I thought had been shut forever. I could listen to this song forever.
@@mikegershon8528 I'm 47 and stopped listening to music almost completely after metal was replaced by grunge in the 90's. Then about 5 years ago, a random post on reddit asking about metal bands with singes who sing rather than scream, led me to the 2013 nightwish show. I had meant to just listen to a couple songs to see if it was any good and ended up sitting through the entire show, probably with a really stupid grin on my face. That was it, I was completely hooked on symphonic metal and metal in general again.
@@Liatni czcams.com/video/ZOrxzJv6ZZc/video.html
Floor you are a wonder woman.
Nightwish will always be my favorite band because of you Floor Jansen. You touch my heart with your beautiful voice.
Same.
4:30 - 4:32 how cute was that? seeing two band mates smiling at each other like that after a performance? priceless
That was supercool!!
It’s always heartwarming to see people genuinely enjoy what they’re doing. In this case, it’s giving us listeners one of the greatest vocal showcases and acoustic backup ever.
It's just unbelievably beautiful. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad that I only found this woman's music a while ago. As a fellow Dutchman I feel embarrassed. Now I've spent much of my free time listening to Nightwish (and to a lesser extent After Forever) for over a month. Better late than never I guess?
Never too late friend
Welcome to the Nightwish army!
I wish floor would sing more stuff like this. She's probably the best singer I've heard in a long time.
I keep coming back to this song. Even after hearing it for so so many times it still gives me goosebumps. I am not even exaggerating when I say that Floor is the only singer who can make me cry. Her voice touches my soul. ❤️
Sure she only TOUCHES you ur soul. She TOOK mine three weeks ago on first hearing of GLS
They're doing this arrangement live as we speak right now in Boston 😀
This performance is out of this world. Acoustic or metal it doesn't matter it sounds extremely good!
I've just come across Nightwish. This normally isn't my cup of tea, but the talent can't be ignored!
Floors voice is the biggest and most versatile voice i've ever heard in any genre.
Floor could sing the operating instructions to a fire extinguisher... and I’d still get tears in my eyes ❤️❤️
Musicianship level: Nightwish.
I pity the poor souls whose lives are without this.
Today is the best day of 2020 for all Nightwish fans. After their release album so many official lyrics video and now this beautiful acoustic version of the song.
Too bad the album is unlistenable!
@@TheVigiIante ?? You broke your CD -player/phone/pad/computer or... Ears? Hands down the best album I’ve heard in more than ten - no, let me count - in twenty-seven years. And I’ve listened a lot.
The first listening was quite confusing, I have to admit. I was almost disappointed. But when I started it over. Boom! It seems my brains needed the first round to adjust :).
Now I can’t stop playing it.
@@fiorelainen623 I felt like broking my cd player! But not going to argue, you like it, fine, still better than most modern music...but best thing in years....please stop the xanax or whatever shit is prescribed to you. Btw Tuomas solo album was same mood, but much better, do you agree?
@@TheVigiIante No, I don’t agree :). But I wholly understand why some metal fans, or Nightwish fans, or even ”general good music” fans don’t like it. There are no ”hits” on this album. I hated Harvest at the first listen. I still don’t like to listen to it, but after listening the whole album I totally understand its place on the track list.
The solo album was good with most parts. More mellow. Some great music in it. But I didn’t like the excessive use of spoken word. And it was repetive. But if you mean with the comparison the second part of this album... well. The solo album was better. There are lots of similarities.
But if we are talking about the whole album, this is great. It is not easy. Or poppy. Or might not even be progressive enough for some. But the last album that made the same kind of affect on me was released in 1995 (I did remember the year wrong afterall in my first comment).
And the 1995 album wasn’t a metal album :). And Nightwish as band didn’t even exist back then. Totally different genre(s). And it still is a masterpiece after all these years. I’ll hope this Nightwish album will too.
@@fiorelainen623 Interestingly, for me was Harvest the track that put me into this album as I was quite dissapointed with Noise.
It´s different, just as any other NW albut has its own style. But i love it more and more, especially Music.
I don´t understan why people call it "poppy" as it shows the structure of prog. Just because it is not "hard" enough?
I love the contrast between Floor's powerful voice and Troy's utterly calming one. Really good song, thank you guys !
Yea Troy is a really impressive musician all around.
Troy's and Floor's voices blend amazingly well. Also, his guitar work on this is perfect with the vocals! I am wholly impressed with his classical playing here.
His lower vocal range perfectly compliments floors higher capabilities.
This gives me goosebumps. Floor is the best singer in the world
Floor the most incredible vocalist of the past 10+ years. She’s incredible!!!!!
Jeez time flies so fast, I remember listening to this for the first time when I was in a dark place 2 years ago. Doing good now thankfully, and my little one is due in September of this year
This song (the whole album to tell the truth) makes me feel unexplainable things and after knowing Tuomas wrote the second verse of the song specifically for and about Floor, it became even more special and very heartwarming, I truly feel embraced everytime I hear it. Everyone stay safe and share all the love you can ❤
Those vocals sound hard as balls to sing. A lot of the new album sounds that way. Kudos to Floor, seriously.
OH MY GOD - how is this even possible??!! You two are amazing, the song is amazing - but this performance transcends both. Speechless
Holy crap I completely agree, this was something else for sure especially towards the end...both of them, just incredible!
Floor is Incredible. Very Impressed by her singing perfection.
This version deserves to be found on a cd! Floor's voice is sublime!
omg floor..... I thought the song was good before... but this is something else! I love it!
How's The Heart?
We see a mother with no child
We meet a stranger poor, exiled
How's the heart while it still beats?
Asks a no-one
Another John Doe
Sorrow hides well in your shell
A fellow man with hurt to spare
Dear one,
Here I am to share the fear
An act of kindness
Without an amen
How's the heart
Underneath the silence?
How's the one
Drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean
Come in, the fire's warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
We met where the cliff greets the sea
Shared a story, took the leap
Rose up rooted, hid a note
You know where
You've been there
Now there's one who came from me
A child of light, another tale
Dear one,
Night will come but not to stay
Why?
The answer's in the
Fair winds my love
Fly towards the calm
Fly utterly lost
Towards a beating heart
How is that heart
Underneath the silence?
How is the one
Drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean
Come on in, the fire's warm
Dull the blade and dance some more
Great guitar playing with great vocals and brilliant song what more can I say well done floor and troy
real mvp
the prove of existence of evil is the number of dislikes here ! seriously people ! who could possibly by any means dislike this soul refreshing song and performance ?
Tarja fanboys and Planet Rock fans who are mad because this isn't rock.
there are 41 evils in this world...
Troy is a very good acoustic guitar player
ikr, is there an instrument he doesn't play ?!?
@@wherermytacos5903 I don't know, but I'm eagerly awaiting the time he casually pulls out a didgeridoo on stage haha
@@NikosDriehuis that would literally be the happiest day of my life
Troy is... unique
he was fingerpicking that whole song...
The concept of "supergroups" is an old one. You get a couple of talented musicians from various groups, usually bored with their current status and, sometimes, with egos aching to get away from the "little people", so they talk to their equally "suffering" buddies and say "hey, we should team up and make something together"...and it seldom actually works out.
Then sometimes you get a perfect storm, a lightning-in-a-bottle, a mad scientist's secret formula come to fruition. Maybe it just happens, maybe it takes a struggle to achieve, but to have SIX wonderfully talented musicians in a single group able to work together and compliment each other to create such wonderful and powerful pieces of art...DON'T CHANGE A F***ING THING!!!
Seriously !!!! this woman is the best in the world hands down no doubt !!!!!
Flawless acoustic and a voice from heaven. So much feelings that make a tear emerge from the corner of the eye! Beautiful!
- Floor: Hey, Emppu, we're doing a little acoustic set.
- Emppu: Nah, you better take Troy, I'm just the guitar player.
As much as I love Nightwish, their live performances always blow the studio recordings away. I liked the full song on the new CD, but this version, I adore. I can't wait til they start performing it live with the whole band; those videos will be *amazing*
Exactly, since Floor joined, i prefer to listen to the live versions
@@evakamenna2916 I'm the same. Floor seems to step it up just a bit performing live to take it to another level. That said the end of Shoemaker is amazing.
It's always the live versions where the real musician shines.. Because live you have perform the song as whole, as a work of art, not like in the studio where you can record in pieces, splice the best takes together...etc. But to perform live the musician must really be in control of the whole piece, and that is where the true masters shine...
Agree with Shoemaker...
1:40 "We met where the cliff greets the sea" Is that from Élan "meet me where the cliff greets the sea"? Finally they met and shared a story!!!
Yes!! That's amazing!
yeah, I heard that too. Tuomas likes to do that. A lot of songs have references to other songs.
Nice Story: actually this song was actually written by Tuomas for Floor, describing her experience of meeting the love of her life (her hausband) and having her daughter (a Child of light). So touching. Of course the reference to Elan is also present, but the personal reference to her friend is also present and touching.
@@marcofrassini9172 Elan was also the first single featuring Floor, so it's a double reference to Floor ;-). Btw there are more references to Floor on the album ;-)
@@marcofrassini9172 in an interview by Floor she said she met him in a bar and approached him wanting to share whiskey and smoke a cigar...not by a cliff by the sea. Unless that bar was on a cliff by the sea?
This is the first time I actually thought about the lyrics to this song. Floor’s voice is such a powerhouse and the lyrics are so touching to me, it’s so beautiful!
Dear Floor, please *NEVER* leave this band ♥
What a Beautiful and Powerful Voice, Floor Jansen!....May God Bless You Always!
Troy is an old fashioned bard, and Floor is silk and velvet, with some flint thrown in. Centuries ago, they would have been at the King's court, doing command performances.
The Edema Ruh!
I'm from Flint Mi and I read that and thought "yeah Floor does have some Flint in her." She's had to fight and it's so good she is getting all the love she deserves now.
This is better than the album version. Amazing!
My only complaint is this upload got lost in the shuffle with Nightwish dropping every lyric video. Holy hell this is beautiful.
This is probably the most "pop" tune on the album, but at the same time contains one of the most challenging vocal lines ... and you don't even notice it at first glance. That's good songwriting :)
Also, Floor just kills it!
Patrick: Is mayonnaise an instrument?
Squidward: No Patrick mayonnaise is not an...
Troy: Actually... I can play it
And the aioli, too.
lol hahah loved this comment
How about Tartar sauce? Lol
@@fioriremakeup833 only on the heavier songs
Hope you don't mind... I'm having that on a Tshirt.
Thanks and a big hug from Spain
This needs 100000000 views.
God damn I have gosebumbs on nu whole body at the moment troy starts to play the guitar. Sorry for mine english, I'am Dutch and 14 years old. So I'am not so good at English.
1:58 "now there's one that came from me" a true master piece
I just adore how Troy looks at Floor in the end, his expression is saying "SHE IS RIDICULOUSLY REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD AT SINGING!"
How’s the heart? ... well my heart just exploded 🥺😭 this is so beautiful!!!!
Every member of Nightwish is amazing, but I always enjoy the songs where Troy gets to shine. Watching Troy and Floor together - perfection.
It's going out of control. I fear that this universe won't be able to handle one more performance like this.
I can't get enough of Floor's voice. She is very talented and she has awesome musician around her.
"In case of emergency, Floor Jansen can be used as Siren"
and even that would be Epic..
Bruce Dickinson might not like that. But I say the mantle would be in good hands.
You made laugh my socks off so funny :)
Maybe, but there is a risk. People might be gathering instead of making the way free for the emergency. Or, do you mentioned the old greek siren which made every man heard her absolutely fall for her.
Just emergency? No 😁
How can Troy keep playing with all the goosebumps is something I can't just imagine.
Weeks later I'm still baffled how easy she makes it look like. The microphone is at least 12" from her mouth and Floors voice is still so powerfull. Her skill level and engagement... Dream like. 👍
I like this better than the album version. More nuanced, more emotional.
this woman is a Diamond !I m crazy .
i thought i was dead when she started singing high... but no, she went on belting after that, waking the dead.
You are a true work of art, Floor Jansen
The power of Floors voice is incredible. She has to pull away from the mic at the end!! Bet there is shattered glass somewhere?
How many times do I have to listen to this, before it's getting boring? I'm now around the 40th time. Please let me know... 😍🤣
I am an empath. I even may have something more, something special about it because I can unconsciously feel other people's feelings. And most of the time this is what i want to ask to them, "How's the heart?"
Everytime i listen to this song, I feel like Floor with her vocals and Troy with his guitar, they're asking this question to _me._ A question I don't get so often.
And by that, this song really gets me. It's human. It's something sometimes we should remind ourselves.
'How's the heart?'
So this is the first time I see Troy play an instrument I actually recognize. That's a good changeup haha. While Floor can do anything with here voice, Troy can do anything with whatever you put in his hands. I'm still waiting for him to come out with a piece of paper or something and still make the most beautifull sounds
55 year old metalhead all my life, followed Nightwish since the start and many many other bands; heard this song before from the album, but... blubbing like a big kid here... stunned... awesome from both of you.
It would be awesome if Floor would incorporate this in her final upcoming solo liveshow
I remember this being released 2 years ago and me loving it but I wasn't expecting them to actually perform this version live. They did and I had tears in my eyes, it was an experience. ❤️ Fantastic song.
So beautiful! Floor's voice is so wonderful!
Troy is so musically gifted. He can plaly so many instruments and has a good backing voice as well. Not enough range or depth to be a lead singer but a great backing singer.
What an incredible song, the softness of Floor's voice is immeasurably beautiful. Thanks for that masterpiece Tuomas and Floor Jansen and the whole band
im addicted to this version, perfection
We see a mother with no child
We meet a stranger poor, exiled
How’s the heart while it still beats?
Asks a no-one
Another John Doe
Sorrow hides well in your shell
A fellow man with hurt to spare
Dear one,
Here I am to share the fear
An act of kindness
Without an amen
How’s the heart
Underneath the silence?
How’s the one
Drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean
Come in, the fire’s warm
Burn the rope and dance some more
We met where the cliff greets the sea
Shared a story, took the leap
Rose up rooted, hid a note
You know where
You’ve been there
Now there’s one who came from me
A child of light, another tale
Dear one,
Night will come but not to stay
Why?
The answer’s in the
Fair winds my love
Fly towards the calm
Fly utterly lost
Towards a beating heart
How is that heart
Underneath the silence?
How is the one
Drowning in the mire?
Let us sound a human paean
Come on in, the fire’s warm
Dull the blade and dance some more
This will become a classic. I would imagine this to be played a lot on the radio.
