It's called symphonic metal. And Floor is indeed an amazing singer. There is a RUclips video where she sings Euphoria on the TV show De Beste Zangers. It is definitely worth checking out if you would like to hear her in a different genre.
My favourite of her solo covers is still M83's "Oblivion"... No good recording of a live version so far, but the "studio" version on her channel is just amazing 🥰
Thank you for deciding to continue exploring Nightwish music, after your first experience in "Embrace The Suck". New subscriber here for that. All the best, from Romania!
And the Valkyrie Goddess claims another soul! Floor is the most charismatic vocalist since Freddie Mercury (and one of the nicest people in the world) The rest of the band are all masters of their craft. Fun fact: Every version of this song on RUclips is epic in different ways. The "Standard" starting point is at their now legendary set when they headlined at Wacken Open Air in 2013 (in front of 82000 metalheads screaming Floor's name. She had just joined the band 10 months before, as an emergency replacement for their previous lead singer, who had to bow out for medical reasons. That was in the middle of the North American leg of a world tour. At Wacken she had yet to record anything with the band (and only just been offered a permanent spot in the band) so the crowd in the audience had not heard her before. The expressions on the band's faces says it all: "Yeah, THIS is what we sound like now!" I find that Nightwish ALWAYS delivers!
Her charisma is just as magical (and rare) as her voice! The Freddie Mercury reference is totally valid. I always thought of him as "THE" most charismatic vocalist of all time...until I heard/saw Floor! And she is genuinely one of the kindest, most humble "celebrities" ever! Personality-wise, she reminds me a lot of Lzzy Hale (Halestorm)...and that's intended as a huge compliment to both.
I saw them live two weeks ago and having watched hundreds upon hundreds of reaction videos to Ghost Love Score I thought I was a bit fed up with the song. I still got emotional as soon as the drums started.
Floors parents being at this show….How proud they must be to see the positive and joyous effect their daughter and this band has on thousands of people must be almost overwhelming for them. Sensory overload… Nightwish style. Bring some carrots. You’re on your way down the Nightwish rabbit hole and it’s a deep one😉
It's called "symphonic metal". There were 22,000 people at this concert in Tampere, Finland. They have performed in front of 82,000 people at Wacken Open Air in Germany. Nightwish is big, and ya, America lives under a rock. I saw your reaction to the Phantom, plus I've seen your reactions to Rugby and and other stuff. You need to do more of this with Nightwish and other European music. Just as a teaser, you've heard Floor Jansen's beautiful, melodic, soprano voice. She can also go full metal with the high, distorted belts, vocal fry and death metal growls. Dude, get into European metal and be prepared to get your socks knocked off. Should we tell him about Jinjer, Arch Enemy, or Fleshgod Apocalypse? And then there's Unleash the Archers and Spiritbox from your northern neighbours. There's hundreds of bands to listen to. There are great American bands like Tool that never get the air play as they don't fit the simplistic, fast food, dumbed down, quick buck mold of the American music industry. Start digging as it's fun.
I love watching people react to Ghost Love Score for the first time! You didn't disappoint!! The word "siren" is used quite often and rightly so. Floor isn't human, she's something supernatural! The transition from slight confusion to awe and then to pure joy is always a pleasure to see!
This is called Ghost Love Score as it has been written as a film score with separate sections. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist and chief composer, is an amazing songwriter and his music and lyrics are superb. Worth listening to every song at Wacken 2013 to get an idea of some of what they are capable especially with their latest and current singer, Floor Jansen the six feet tall Dutchwoman.
I've never heard this version of the song and I am actually very impressed with it! Was sceptical in the start but I do rate this up there with the best versions of the song.
There are a few RUclips videos of Floor singing other genres. Look out for the Beste Zanger videos where she sings quite a wide range. She sings the Stabat Mater Dolorosa with Simone Simons and Epica. There's a video of Floor singing Let it go from Frozen and another of her singing O Mio Babino Caro from one of Puccini's operas.
How about Floor covering "Hurt" (Christina Aguilera): ruclips.net/video/VFP5pRlV-hc/видео.html or just having stupid fun during a metal concert, singing "Bad Romance" (Lady Gaga): ruclips.net/video/IGVYBmkLrGA/видео.html "Cause I'm a freak b!tch, baby!"🤪🤣
There are plenty songs from her in various genres. just google her name on RUclips.

Hi, Nightwish army west Germany comming in! Super nice reaction, I will never get tired watching someone experience this for the first time 😊 floorgasms all over 🤘☺️ please continue!
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power of her vocals. We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard. ALL HAIL THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!! The Nightwish Army is incoming!

Hello Arias. Nightwish Army Phoenix new subscriber here for you. Thank you for returning to Nightwish with our 3rd and current female lead vocalist, our 6'1" (barefoot) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yan-sen). What a terrific reaction to this amazing performance. Loved it and hope to see you back for more live Nightwish performances soon.
Hey Arias. Lucky you. You discovered the most versatile female singer in the world Floor Jansen and her amazing band Nightwish. I saw Nightwish last week in Kitee ( Finland), seven years later still a great performance. What next? Storytime and Dark Chest of Wonders ( both Wacken 2013). Greetings from the Netherlands
Just an awesome reaction dude! It is generally accepted that the 2013 version at Waken is the best but this has always been my favourite. The mix is far superior and the end is even more epic. I was with you emotionally every step of the way because no matter how many times I hear this it still gives me chills. If you continue your Nightwish journey I will be with you every step of the way. If you choose something from 2013 onwards you will hear the amazing Floor Jansen ( the singer you have just heard). She can give you anything from opera to heavy metal growls. I recommend “Storytime” or “Romanticide” live from Waken 2013 for your next reaction. Greetings from the UK.
I love how we can love different things because I actually hate everything about this performance 😅 I love the Wacken one best to be sure, and ig it sounds different my brain gets upset if that makes sense 🙃. But I also appreciate that earler live one, can't remember now. I think Buenos Aires, from this same tour.
Not only is the Waken version better as far as audio & video quality - it is also more dramatic and rather than a tiny audience shown here the crowd of 82,000 adds to the atmosphere.
Armée NIGHTWISH de France ici, avec un peu de retard, excellente réaction, merci et bravo, grand remerciement pour mon groupe préféré, encore s'il vous plait. A bientôt et portez vous bien.......Et un nouvel abonné ici.
Man you missed it they were in Silver Spring a year ago. I got to shoot (photograph) the show. As good as the videos are LIVE is just another level! Great reaction
Hail to the Queen Floor Jansen...sublime soprano, powerful Valkyria and metal Queen...amazing woman an inspiration....i suscribed Welcome the Nightwish World magic music...welcome the rabbit.hole We are Nightwish army Latinoamerica present 🤘
And Floor claims another soul. I hope that you continue to explore the world of Nightwish, the best symphonic metal band in the world. Floor is, of course, Floor, but the entire band is a marvel, so tight and professional. Every song is different and you will swear that each "last song" you listen to is the best one. My suggestion for the next listen is Romanticide - Live at Wacken 2013 - correct speed. It is important that you chose the correct speed version for some reason that is totally beyond my very untechnical ability to explain. But, the Nightwish Army knows its band and if they suggest a certain version, you can rest assured that is the one that will give you the best experience. I am going to subscribe to your channel because the next best thing to discovering this band's music for the first time is watching someone else go through the discovery process.
Yay more Nightwish please! For your classic rock, Nightwish does a live tribute/cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes with the lead Bass player Marko doing awesome vocals and Emppu killing the guitar solos. David Gilmour approved! You should check it out too!
Ghost Love Score - the typical introduction for Nightwish newcomers. What surprised me, however, is that you chose the concert in Tampere. Personally, I think the Wacken version from 2013 is better, but ok Nightwish is always extremely good on a live stage. A lot of people? Haha,Wacken 2013 there were about 60,000 more.
Im jaded by crowd sizes after watching that metallica gig in moscow... and seeing the oasis knebworth gig.. but hell yeah i love a big crowd! Much love!
Great reaction .. one of the best of all times ! ... and You did hear the DUTCH amazing Floor Jansen ... rock and classic trained in the Netherlands .. the best female vocalist of the past decenia !
Is absolutely amazing watching someone falling in this rabbit hole as I did. Nightwish is my favorite band but Floor is my idol. You have a lot to dig in her other bands, tv shows and solo career. Do you know that she did a tour with Nightwish all around the world, treat a cancer in the middle of it and did her solo career tour including open to Metallica while pregnant in less than an year time? She is an amazing person and so humble. She is always happy on stage… she is a goddess 🥰
Tbf some reactors do have trouble and need to pause but there are many reaction videos especially of the live stuff that don't stop at all and don't have any problem with it apparently.
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites: Energize me: ruclips.net/video/fjm4BrNAf6s/видео.html Monolith of Doubt: ruclips.net/video/3TmKHkQx45U/видео.html Dreamflight: ruclips.net/video/73-_F9prx4I/видео.html Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). Here is a link to a part of a TV show (with english subtitles) of the reunion of the class of the Rock Academy with mostly backstage footage of the Tampere concert of Nightwish in 2015: ruclips.net/video/B3NIfu0qvtg/видео.html 'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples: Misery’s no Crime: ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html Disdain: ruclips.net/video/tIqzPXzhEuw/видео.html Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ruclips.net/video/vhExkmWKMEU/видео.html Floor joined Nightwish after the iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see:: ruclips.net/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/видео.html A suggestion to a christmas song sung by Floor. Here is a link to a performance in Finland with a special guest with the best seat you could imagine: ruclips.net/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/видео.html Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on RUclips. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa:, ruclips.net/video/QqdvFPBGN0c/видео.html and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini: ruclips.net/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/видео.html As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered RUclips in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish:. ruclips.net/video/QW_3F186_5Q/видео.html Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of the presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon.Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughter Freja (turned 6 years last march), and another on its way, a horse and pony, a dog and a bunch of cats, she found this.
It's been abut a month since you dove into the Symphonic Metal scene and we're happy to have you. Can you imagine a life without it? I can't and I've been on the Symphonic Metal train since 2007.
NIGHTWISH Army Wisconsin USA chapter and 19 year fan of Nightwish here to say welcome and we hope you will jump into the rabbit hole journey into Tuomas Holopainen's genius of music and poetry . You will not be sorry , and if you decide to join us , it only gets better from here . Looking forward to your decision and if you do , your next video . Until then , stay well and Rock on . .
I haven,t so far find any praise for the choirs of this this song in any yuo tube reactions. They are not so clearly heard i Wacken , but very clear i Tampere. Why is that? For me rhey are a big highlight of this my all time favorite song.
I was shocked when I first heard Nightwish as well about a year ago. Was further shocked when I learned they had been around since the late 90s. Why had I not heard of them before? I listen to a lot of different music, rock being my favorite. They are amazing. I loved them instantly and wished I had heard them years ago.

Wacken wacken wacken...I can hear the Ducks going "Wack!". Wacken is magical esp. as history it was Floors major introduction to the fans, and the crowd energy is fantastic...but the mix is so much better on this GLS version, Marco's bass lines stand out, the orchestral swells are clearer...and the extras Floor adds to the final bit top even Wacken. And I've heard Wacken at least 100x. And then at Buenos Aires where they hear Floor for the first time...and end cheering her by name,...
Ending of GLS in Wacken was great but this...this have more visual candy than in Wacken. Floor slides on long stage like angel who has come middle of the mortals and removes all pain from them with her sinking skills... Sure all GLS endings are great because there are some differences as an sprice....
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal. Introducing the Valkyrie the Goddess Floor Jansen sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin.
Hey man , ETS21 subsciber and huge Nightwish fan who has seen them do this live in person i can tell you now that no video or audio recording is enough to accurately portray how big this song is or how other worldly Floor's voice is, it's something that all music fans should see at least once in their lives Nightwish live in concert with Floor Jansen on lead Vocals, trust me you're only just getting started on what they and her can do, btw get ready to make a half hour plus video on these guys when you get to "The Greatest show on Earth"
OK, I'm not putting up the links as RUclips's dumb algorithms are likely to think it's spam, but here's two other songs from the same concert that will also blow your mind in different ways. "The Islander" is sung by Marko out on the thrust stage at first with no accompaniment. Just him and "the Beast". You'll get it when you see it. Later the band comes in and Floor sings backing vocals for him. Stick around to the end to see Floor applaud him as he walks back to the band. That speaks volumes about the band. The band finishes off with "The Greatest Shown On Earth". Just a little 20+ minute ditty on the evolution of the planet earth and the life upon it. Y'know, just the usual 3 minute radio pop fluff with Evolution, Darwin, Bach and Metallica. Again, stick around until the end. Listening to this song plus "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" will help anyone pass their grade 12 biology exam. When is the last time you heard two songs reference ion channels, LUCA, eukaryote, aye-aye, Tiktaalik, Panthalassa, Archean horizon, Devonian Sea and Lucy of the Afar? Google them. OK, so more than two songs . . . The entire setlist of this show is a recommendation as there are no fillers or weak songs in the entire list. But if you want to dabble "Yours is an Empty Hope" (very heavy and pay close attention to Floor in the chorus - you will be surprised). You've now heard Marko in "The Islander" so you know what he sounds like. Hint, Hint. Who you think is doing what is not who you think is doing what. "Stargazers" where Floor imitates the original singer for the benefit of the Finnish audience. This song is not high on my list, but if you did it back-to-back with "Yours is an Empty Hope" it starts to get even more mind blowing. And then do the rest . . . And then there's Wacken Open Air, Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires, Hellfest, Deichbrand, Mexico City, Rio, etc. etc. etc. Then there's Floor's recent solo stuff, her Northward project, her COVID covers, her two TV shows, After Forever (her first band), ReVamp (her second band), Aryeon (super group project), her numerous guest appearances, opera stuff. Well, there's a lot to cover before we get to the rest of the Nightwish gang and their other stuff. How much time did you say you have?
I've listened to Nightwish countless times since I first found them last November. I think this is the first time I've ever seen this particular version of the song though - not sure how I've missed it!
...well,THAT'S how you do the catwalk (while sending shivers upon shivers to countless human spines with your voice, and headbanging with unparalleled femininity afterwards). This amazing and unique band has not only the best vocalist but also THE GODDESS.
Catching up the past videos. Very nice to see the Tampere version for a change. Probably my second favourite version (unless you count the versions seen live, which take on a new level).
Hi Daniel, new subscriber. Never knew you were a Nightwish reactor on your own channel.....real glad to welcome you to my vast collection of reaction channels. I will definitely check out your other reactions (always loved ETS)
BTW, you mentioned at the beginning of the video that your channel is more oriented to rock, well Floor Jansen has a rock project called Northward. If you want to hear a totally different Floor Jansen, then listen to "While Love Died": ruclips.net/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/видео.html And let's not forget the great guitar work by Jörn Viggo Lofstad on this album. Pick a genre and Floor can sing it. Before you say it, she's sung German rap and nailed it.
If you want to hear Nightwish do something closer to classic rock, try their Pink Floyd cover of High Hopes. It's Marko singing, tho, not Floor or Tarja. Or for stripped down experience, How's the Heart, acoustic Planet Rock session. It's Troy, Floor and a guitar.
You have landed smack dab in the middle of the quintessential Symphonic metal song (and band) , although there apparently is a genre called Epic metal. I'm definitely interested in seeing your reactions to what is ahead. May i suggest my fave, "Storytime" next. The live version from Wacken 2013 is best.
Good one. The whole show was excellent try any other song same show. People usually start with the Wacken 2013 show where Floor was introduced to the European fans as the new singer.
Floor can sing in any Genre and here's a couple a great songs worth checking out to hear what her vocals can do. How's the heart Acoustic version from planet rock just Floor and Troy. Also Floor singing the Heart song Alone which is one of the covers she done during covid lockdowns. Thank you sir.
They toured the US last year within a close drive to me. I was going to buy tickets but procrastinated and didn't get them, figured "next time". Now I've discovered they are no longer going to tour. I kick my old wrinkled ass every day!
Don't give up hope. They are taking a hiatus and will not tour to support their next album, they say. We'll see. But, in any event, they will very possibly tour again in the future.
An important Nightwish member has some personal stuff going on. I have my suspicions, but I am going to keep them to myself, because who am I and who cares? I am sure that they will tour again after the issues are resolved.
@@franshinlopen2166 Interesting. Thanks for that information. I'm not going to ask any questions because you are right. Who am I, and what business is it of mine?
It's called symphonic metal. And Floor is indeed an amazing singer. There is a RUclips video where she sings Euphoria on the TV show De Beste Zangers. It is definitely worth checking out if you would like to hear her in a different genre.

This is by far your best reaction yet! Seeing the shock turning to joy on your face was fantastic.
Hi, Nightwish army west Germany comming in! Super nice reaction, I will never get tired watching someone experience this for the first time 😊 floorgasms all over 🤘☺️ please continue!
Best live singer ,best live band 🤟🤟🤟
Originally Floor was sent by Allfather Odhinn to Midgard to gather the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, but she
got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
of her vocals.

Hello Arias. Nightwish Army Phoenix new subscriber here for you. Thank you for returning to Nightwish with our 3rd and current female lead vocalist, our 6'1" (barefoot) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yan-sen). What a terrific reaction to this amazing performance. Loved it and hope to see you back for more live Nightwish performances soon.
Welcome, Rick. i am looking forward to the journey. Much love
Hey Arias. Lucky you. You discovered the most versatile female singer in the world Floor Jansen and her amazing band Nightwish. I saw Nightwish last week in Kitee ( Finland), seven years later still a great performance. What next? Storytime and Dark Chest of Wonders ( both Wacken 2013). Greetings from the Netherlands

It shall be dripping tomorrow! I can see why it was so heavily requested!!!
@@AriasandtheNATION Dropping tomorrow? I’ll be there!
Forgot to say: liked and subbed.
This is my favorite, too. You can see how Floor is really settling in and making things her own.
I love how we can love different things because I actually hate everything about this performance 😅 I love the Wacken one best to be sure, and ig it sounds different my brain gets upset if that makes sense 🙃. But I also appreciate that earler live one, can't remember now. I think Buenos Aires, from this same tour.
Not only is the Waken version better as far as audio & video quality - it is also more dramatic and rather than a tiny audience shown here the crowd of 82,000 adds to the atmosphere.
It’s Symphonic Metal! Welcome to the Nightwish experience! Rock On!!!🤘🎸
A masterpiece of musical production and performance ! It's definitely of EPIC proportions bar none ! 👍👍👍
Armée NIGHTWISH de France ici, avec un peu de retard, excellente réaction, merci et bravo, grand remerciement pour mon groupe préféré, encore s'il vous plait. A bientôt et portez vous bien.......Et un nouvel abonné ici.
Greatest Show on Earth from the Same Concert,it will blow you away. Give the Word epic an new world.
Man you missed it they were in Silver Spring a year ago. I got to shoot (photograph) the show. As good as the videos are LIVE is just another level! Great reaction
Hi, very very beautiful reaction, thank you
Hail to the Queen Floor Jansen...sublime soprano, powerful Valkyria and metal Queen...amazing woman an inspiration....i suscribed Welcome the Nightwish World magic music...welcome the rabbit.hole
We are Nightwish army Latinoamerica present 🤘
And Floor claims another soul. I hope that you continue to explore the world of Nightwish, the best symphonic metal band in the world. Floor is, of course, Floor, but the entire band is a marvel, so tight and professional. Every song is different and you will swear that each "last song" you listen to is the best one. My suggestion for the next listen is Romanticide - Live at Wacken 2013 - correct speed. It is important that you chose the correct speed version for some reason that is totally beyond my very untechnical ability to explain. But, the Nightwish Army knows its band and if they suggest a certain version, you can rest assured that is the one that will give you the best experience. I am going to subscribe to your channel because the next best thing to discovering this band's music for the first time is watching someone else go through the discovery process.
💙💙💙All Hail Floor !! 💙💙💙

Welcome John!
Yay more Nightwish please!
For your classic rock, Nightwish does a live tribute/cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes with the lead Bass player Marko doing awesome vocals and Emppu killing the guitar solos. David Gilmour approved!
You should check it out too!
Ghost Love Score - the typical introduction for Nightwish newcomers. What surprised me, however, is that you chose the concert in Tampere. Personally, I think the Wacken version from 2013 is better, but ok Nightwish is always extremely good on a live stage.
A lot of people? Haha,Wacken 2013 there were about 60,000 more.
Im jaded by crowd sizes after watching that metallica gig in moscow... and seeing the oasis knebworth gig.. but hell yeah i love a big crowd! Much love!
Love this version over 2013 Wacken performance. Also i was here live.
Next year i will make it again, missed this years concert. 😢
RL issues...
Love hearing this version as the backup choir is right there in the mix, like on the album.
Great reaction .. one of the best of all times ! ... and You did hear the DUTCH amazing Floor Jansen ... rock and classic trained in the Netherlands .. the best female vocalist of the past decenia !
Never forget your first Floorgasm. You were so hype before she even uttered a word. Wish I could relive this moment. Love the reaction brother.
A wonderful version. Thabk you. Greetings from nwAse Sweden
🤗🍒🤘🏻 well done and welcome to the Nightwish familie
Is absolutely amazing watching someone falling in this rabbit hole as I did. Nightwish is my favorite band but Floor is my idol. You have a lot to dig in her other bands, tv shows and solo career.
Do you know that she did a tour with Nightwish all around the world, treat a cancer in the middle of it and did her solo career tour including open to Metallica while pregnant in less than an year time?
She is an amazing person and so humble. She is always happy on stage… she is a goddess 🥰
Thank you, thank you, thank you.... This is the one version of this song I've never seen and I love them all.🤘
There's no copyrights issues in Nightwish videos...no need to pause. Welcome to the Nightwish world. Greetings from Portugal.
Tbf some reactors do have trouble and need to pause but there are many reaction videos especially of the live stuff that don't stop at all and don't have any problem with it apparently.
Onley with The Poem and The Pendulum. And they are BRUTAL
When you want to go further on the path of our 1.83m (6ft.+) tall Dutch Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen besides Nightwish, here is some background information on the best and most versitale female singer of our time. Floor joined the band 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. Here are some of my favourites:
Energize me: ruclips.net/video/fjm4BrNAf6s/видео.html
Monolith of Doubt: ruclips.net/video/3TmKHkQx45U/видео.html
Dreamflight: ruclips.net/video/73-_F9prx4I/видео.html
Floor attended the then new Rock Academy in 1999 and graduated in 2003. She also studied 2 years at the Conservatory (1 year Music Theatre and 1 year Opera). Here is a link to a part of a TV show (with english subtitles) of the reunion of the class of the Rock Academy with mostly backstage footage of the Tampere concert of Nightwish in 2015: ruclips.net/video/B3NIfu0qvtg/видео.html
'After Forever' disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song from full operatic to death growls in seconds. Here are some examples:
Misery’s no Crime: ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html
Disdain: ruclips.net/video/tIqzPXzhEuw/видео.html
Besides managing a band on her own she also did a lot of vocal coaching and as she is a perfectionist, she wants to do everything at 100%+. Eventually she had to pay the price and got a burnout. She had just recovered when end of september 2012 the call came from Nightwish to fill in for the remainder of the North American Tour at first as their second singer Annette got ill. Floor had just 48 hours to learn the whole setlist. There is a documentary made of this world tour: ruclips.net/video/vhExkmWKMEU/видео.html
Floor joined Nightwish after the iconic Wacken concert in 2013 as permanent member of the band. Floor continued to perform with 'Revamp’ also, but it was clear that she could not combine the two for much longer, so 'Revamp' disbanded in 2016. Floor did a side project called 'Northward' where she dived into the Hard Rock scene. The song 'While Love Died is a must see:: ruclips.net/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/видео.html
A suggestion to a christmas song sung by Floor. Here is a link to a performance in Finland with a special guest with the best seat you could imagine: ruclips.net/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/видео.html
Her stunning performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country where she was relatively unknown until then. There are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find on RUclips. To see how to get a crowd of metalheads silenced and in awe watch her featuring with the band 'Epica' and the song 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa:, ruclips.net/video/QqdvFPBGN0c/видео.html
and to see her in full opera mode, watch her rendition of 'O Mio Babbino Caro' from Puccini: ruclips.net/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/видео.html
As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor discovered RUclips in these years. Mindblowing covers, chats with her idols and other singers, vocal masterclasses, personal insights and so much more. She even made a video reacting to herself singing Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Lots of technical info and some memories of her starting with Nightwish:. ruclips.net/video/QW_3F186_5Q/видео.html
Also her Fan Friday videos are hilarious. Just unpack some of the presents she left on her channel. Also videos of her solotour she did with songs of her impressive career. Her latest endeavour is her stunning solo album ‘My Paragon.Floor is a high sensitive person, so peace and quiet is as important for her. Living by the woods in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer of the band Sabaton), daughter Freja (turned 6 years last march), and another on its way, a horse and pony, a dog and a bunch of cats, she found this.
Wow thank you so much for all of this! It really helps me learn more and give me a insight to who she is a little bit more. Much love!
It's been abut a month since you dove into the Symphonic Metal scene and we're happy to have you. Can you imagine a life without it?
I can't and I've been on the Symphonic Metal train since 2007.
And she did that performance with a baby bump. Go to Nightwish, Ghost Love Score, Wachen 2013. Check that Version out.
NIGHTWISH Army Wisconsin USA chapter and 19 year fan of Nightwish here to say welcome and we hope you will jump into the rabbit hole journey into Tuomas Holopainen's genius of music and poetry . You will not be sorry , and if you decide to join us , it only gets better from here . Looking forward to your decision and if you do , your next video . Until then , stay well and Rock on . .
I haven,t so far find any praise for the choirs of this this song in any yuo tube reactions. They are not so clearly heard i Wacken , but very clear i Tampere. Why is that? For me rhey are a big highlight of this my all time favorite song.
I was shocked when I first heard Nightwish as well about a year ago. Was further shocked when I learned they had been around since the late 90s. Why had I not heard of them before? I listen to a lot of different music, rock being my favorite. They are amazing. I loved them instantly and wished I had heard them years ago.
New subscriber here! Welcome to Nightwish. Enjoy your journey down the rabbit hole, looking forward to following you. Nightwish Army NYC.
First time seeing this Tampere version as I consider Wacken 2013 to be the best (mystical, mythical and magical), but I'm not disappointed at all😍

Cheers Bibs!
Wacken wacken wacken...I can hear the Ducks going "Wack!". Wacken is magical esp. as history it was Floors major introduction to the fans, and the crowd energy is fantastic...but the mix is so much better on this GLS version, Marco's bass lines stand out, the orchestral swells are clearer...and the extras Floor adds to the final bit top even Wacken. And I've heard Wacken at least 100x.
And then at Buenos Aires where they hear Floor for the first time...and end cheering her by name,...
Ending of GLS in Wacken was great but this...this have more visual candy than in Wacken.
Floor slides on long stage like angel who has come middle of the mortals and removes all pain from them with her sinking skills...
Sure all GLS endings are great because there are some differences as an sprice....
I've seen your reaction many times and it's just as enjoyable every time. fantastic reaction to a fantastic concert and a very special band
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal. Introducing the Valkyrie the Goddess Floor Jansen sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin.
This is what excellence looks and sounds like.
Hey man , ETS21 subsciber and huge Nightwish fan who has seen them do this live in person i can tell you now that no video or audio recording is enough to accurately portray how big this song is or how other worldly Floor's voice is, it's something that all music fans should see at least once in their lives Nightwish live in concert with Floor Jansen on lead Vocals, trust me you're only just getting started on what they and her can do, btw get ready to make a half hour plus video on these guys when you get to "The Greatest show on Earth"
Hey much love and thanks for coming over from ETS21! And yeah this seems like a looong journey that is going to be epic
The whole wacken 2013 is epic😊
OK, I'm not putting up the links as RUclips's dumb algorithms are likely to think it's spam, but here's two other songs from the same concert that will also blow your mind in different ways.
"The Islander" is sung by Marko out on the thrust stage at first with no accompaniment. Just him and "the Beast". You'll get it when you see it. Later the band comes in and Floor sings backing vocals for him. Stick around to the end to see Floor applaud him as he walks back to the band. That speaks volumes about the band.
The band finishes off with "The Greatest Shown On Earth". Just a little 20+ minute ditty on the evolution of the planet earth and the life upon it. Y'know, just the usual 3 minute radio pop fluff with Evolution, Darwin, Bach and Metallica. Again, stick around until the end. Listening to this song plus "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" will help anyone pass their grade 12 biology exam. When is the last time you heard two songs reference ion channels, LUCA, eukaryote, aye-aye, Tiktaalik, Panthalassa, Archean horizon, Devonian Sea and Lucy of the Afar? Google them.
OK, so more than two songs . . .
The entire setlist of this show is a recommendation as there are no fillers or weak songs in the entire list. But if you want to dabble "Yours is an Empty Hope" (very heavy and pay close attention to Floor in the chorus - you will be surprised). You've now heard Marko in "The Islander" so you know what he sounds like. Hint, Hint. Who you think is doing what is not who you think is doing what.
"Stargazers" where Floor imitates the original singer for the benefit of the Finnish audience. This song is not high on my list, but if you did it back-to-back with "Yours is an Empty Hope" it starts to get even more mind blowing.
And then do the rest . . .
And then there's Wacken Open Air, Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires, Hellfest, Deichbrand, Mexico City, Rio, etc. etc. etc. Then there's Floor's recent solo stuff, her Northward project, her COVID covers, her two TV shows, After Forever (her first band), ReVamp (her second band), Aryeon (super group project), her numerous guest appearances, opera stuff. Well, there's a lot to cover before we get to the rest of the Nightwish gang and their other stuff.
How much time did you say you have?
Thank you ❤Floor is amazing and the band❤
I've listened to Nightwish countless times since I first found them last November. I think this is the first time I've ever seen this particular version of the song though - not sure how I've missed it!
...well,THAT'S how you do the catwalk (while sending shivers upon shivers to countless human spines with your voice, and headbanging with unparalleled femininity afterwards). This amazing and unique band has not only the best vocalist but also THE GODDESS.
Arias, exhausted😂? Like you said, it's not a song but an experience.
Liked your reaction.
Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱🧡🌷
Catching up the past videos. Very nice to see the Tampere version for a change. Probably my second favourite version (unless you count the versions seen live, which take on a new level).
Feel good music. That is what it is!
"oh my shit, phooh, effin journey dude". I see myself first time seeing Ghost love score.
What a nice reaction !! Yeh they are good hahaha🥰
I absolutely loved your reaction man!!! I know exactly how you feel :D
Floor has an opera training and is a vocal coach.
The singer is called Kirsty Queen of the lost phone chargers lol
🤣🤣🤣
Please listen also to the band Eluveitie with the song Rebirth !
I do enjoy the ending in this version, it’s my second favorite compared to Wacken.
Hi Daniel, new subscriber. Never knew you were a Nightwish reactor on your own channel.....real glad to welcome you to my vast collection of reaction channels. I will definitely check out your other reactions (always loved ETS)
Thanks for hanging out with us over on ETS21
BTW, you mentioned at the beginning of the video that your channel is more oriented to rock, well Floor Jansen has a rock project called Northward. If you want to hear a totally different Floor Jansen, then listen to "While Love Died": ruclips.net/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/видео.html And let's not forget the great guitar work by Jörn Viggo Lofstad on this album.
Pick a genre and Floor can sing it. Before you say it, she's sung German rap and nailed it.
She sung The Yellow Pages on Dutch radio and nailed it! 💜
If I remember correctly, when asked which one genre she wouldn't ever (want to) sing, her answer was French gangsta rap 🤣
@@Wolf-ln1ml I guess German rap didn't qualify. ;)
@@billattercliffe8655 Well, she had to pick _one_ genre, not two or three... 🤣
I also recommend her bands Revamp and After Forever ❤❤❤
The version from the waken 2013 live is mind blowing 🎉🎉 I recommend it !!! Heavily !!!! 🎉🎉😂❤
dude the gold standard for ghost love score is the official live video by nuclear blast from wacken open air festival
Happy you met our Dutch Charismatic Valkyrie Metal Goddess, subscribed to follow your journey, enjoy❣️
If you want to hear Nightwish do something closer to classic rock, try their Pink Floyd cover of High Hopes. It's Marko singing, tho, not Floor or Tarja.
Or for stripped down experience, How's the Heart, acoustic Planet Rock session. It's Troy, Floor and a guitar.
Picking this version of Ghost Love Score is like choosing the bargain brand of Champagne
yeah... Waken have a little post production. 🤗
Noup. They are all great in their own way as it’s Nightwish. ❤
Redo this with the Wacken 2013 version. You don’t regret it. Film it and we’ll watch it , believe me.
❤❤❤❤ Nightwish
wow this version is even better than the wacken one. i didnt know thats possible
And Floor was sick, had stomack flu, nightbefore and did not get sleep and felt not so well. And still performed like this.
I believe that was 2022 before the Helsinki gig.
The male singer is Marco he is the bassist.🤘🎸
You have landed smack dab in the middle of the quintessential Symphonic metal song (and band) , although there apparently is a genre called Epic metal. I'm definitely interested in seeing your reactions to what is ahead. May i suggest my fave, "Storytime" next. The live version from Wacken 2013 is best.
Good luck with just "tipping a toe" to this rabbit hole 😂
My favorit version
Good one. The whole show was excellent try any other song same show. People usually start with the Wacken 2013 show where Floor was introduced to the European fans as the new singer.
Floor’s husband is the drummer in Sabaton I believe.
Max volumeeeeeeeeee nightwish rulezzzzzzzzz
Floor can sing in any Genre and here's a couple a great songs worth checking out to hear what her vocals can do. How's the heart Acoustic version from planet rock just Floor and Troy. Also Floor singing the Heart song Alone which is one of the covers she done during covid lockdowns. Thank you sir.
Try the Wacken 2013 version. Even more EPIC
try EPICA the are dutch !like Floor
Tornado of souls by megadeth my favourite solo ever
I'm gonna have fun watching you.
🤣 late but finaly we got you to NW 🤣
go on ❤🔥
They toured the US last year within a close drive to me. I was going to buy tickets but procrastinated and didn't get them, figured "next time". Now I've discovered they are no longer going to tour. I kick my old wrinkled ass every day!
Don't give up hope. They are taking a hiatus and will not tour to support their next album, they say. We'll see. But, in any event, they will very possibly tour again in the future.
An important Nightwish member has some personal stuff going on. I have my suspicions, but I am going to keep them to myself, because who am I and who cares?
I am sure that they will tour again after the issues are resolved.
@@franshinlopen2166 Interesting. Thanks for that information. I'm not going to ask any questions because you are right. Who am I, and what business is it of mine?
Please hear the Version from Wacken..If this blows your mind......lets See what will Happen listening to that Version....i Love it❤🤘🤘🤘
Catch Jeremy Renner doing his song Main Attraction
You definitely need to check the Wacken 2013 version.
Go Finland 🇫🇮🔥🔥🇫🇮
