Hi Rachel. If you want to hear Marco singing solo (with a bit of Nightwish in the background), there is an awesome ballad that he performs at the Tampere live concert called "The Islander". you will love it :)
@@alancarter41 I agree, but I'd say for her to hold off on Master Passion Greed, because she still needs to get through a few other songs before being thrown to that one. As she's a singer and understands lyrical meaning, that one would be a deep one to explain.
Underrated song vote - Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean (Live in Buenos Aires). Fun vocals, catchy, and a great intro to the monster that is Kai on drums, and the charming Troy playing everything else.
I concur!!!!!! A genius composer, a great poet, we are the Lucky ones, that we can experience him and the other Nightwish members live, all amazing people. What will people say about this band in the future, about Tuomas as a composer! He sure deserves his place in the music history. Thanks, i loved your reaction, see you at the next one, bye!
Extra beautiful reaction. This is one of their heavier ones. My personal favorite from this Wacken show is Song of Myself. Keep exploring Nightwish. It’s worth it.
Rachel, Floor & Marko are really good together in Greatest Show on Earth from Tampere, and you get to experience Troy a little playing Uileann Pipes and low whistle. He sings too but not very much in this one. You'll enjoy it! It's a long one, but play it to the end. (about 24 mins)
If you want a lot of effects during a song, during the same song, they did a song called "The Last Ride of the Day". This one is actually crazy in terms of effect IMO.
I suggest "Yours is an empty hope" from the same concert as the next Nightwish reaction. Listen to it closely, then you´ll know why! Romanticide may be a word created as song title, but IMHO it still is a correct one, meaning 'killing romance'.
I think she knows what it means, she is just saying "stuff" because YT stupid rules lower content creators ratings or demonetize them automatcally when they use some words. It seems YT thinks we are stupid and by using alternate words, like "unaliving", which has been very popular with other reactors, we were believing we were avoiding talking about certain subjects instead of just using different words.
you have my favorite reactions to Nightwish because I believe you are actually a fan and part of the Army now. and the words you use and talking to yourself are gorgeous just like you. I guess in short you are fun to watch.
Get on the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic. Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
Another great reaction to this amazing band. The smile on your face says it all. If you want to see more Marko, including some of his more delicate stuff, check out The Islander, Kiss While Your Lips are Still Red, or High Hopes, which is an amazing tribute to Pink Floyd. For more Marko and Floor together, check out Ghost River or Yours is an Empty Hope.
This song is Like a Coffee with Red Bull .... On Steroids 🤘❤🔥🤘. The “scream” at the end is called a glissando, going from low to high and back, for classically trained singers this is an exercise to warm up the vocal cords, so Floor will do this probably every day before breakfast 😆. NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Floor covered 3 octaves in that glissando that she did in tandem with Marko. The studio version, from the Tarja era, only has his 2 octave slide. this is one of their heavier songs. Emppu doesn't shred like that very often, they play what the song needs, as opposed to showing off. Recommend Song of Myself from this Wacken show. And for a heavier song, that was written for Floor, Yours Is an Empty Hope from Wembley 2015.
Floor Jansen & The Red Limo String Quartet - Energize Me . Acoustic , No mic , no audio amplification , no audio tricks simply 100% PURE Floor-Power . this is from before the Nightwish period. this is a song from Floor's old band After Forever. link : ruclips.net/video/uzW1jDAt69Q/видео.html .
I love your reactions. You're so genuine. ❤❤ Romanticide is loving someone that never returns that love "and you eventually find yourself drowning in the black abyss of rejection".
Great reaction as always, loved it! The name of this song is directly tied to what the song is about. Its about a breakup after a nasty betrayal that was so bad that you feel like you’re done with love. I’ve definitely had one of those so I can totally relate to the lyrics that are very dark and full of rage and angst. And yes, there are alot of effects happening in this one, but there are a few that are even more intense. Just wait to you get to “Last Ride Of The Day” from this concert. 🔥🔥🔥
Here is a playlist to keep you going: Epica - Consign to oblivion (Live at the Zenith) Nightwish - The Greatst Show on Earth Powerwolf - Faster then the Flames (Live at Oberhaussen 2022) Powerwolf - Diamonds are a girls bestfriend DragonForce- Through the fire and the flames
Did a quick check on your channel and see you haven't reacted to Dark Chest Of Wonders, Wacken 2013, show opener. The most awesome opener I have ever seen. You're welcome!
I've always thought that a Nightwish Show with Till from Rammstein doing the pyro effects would probably be the most epic experience possible. That being said, enjoying your journey down the rabbit hole, looking forward to your reactions to songs with more effects, 7 Days to the Wolves is fun, but Greatest Show on Earth from Tampere (tam-pa-rah), has to be the best. No rush to get to it, I'll be here for the whole journey. Nightwish Army Arizona Division checking in. 🌵🇺🇲
I definitely agree with some of the others down in the comments, and recommend The Islander, live from Tampere. Marco sings lead on that one, but the harmonies on that are phenomenal. Also, I see that you haven't been introduced to Nightwish's 3rd singer, Troy Donockley. When they are able to get 3-part harmonies going, it's really good. I'd start with I Want My Tears Back, from Buenos Aires for that. But definitely have a react to The Islander. You'll love it.
I have nothing intelligent really to Say, so i'll just go with : your smily face when being a total music nerd is cute ^^ Great song, great reaction, nothing New 😁
I saw an interview with a big league guitarist once (can't remember who) who said they do the "scruntchy face", as you called it, to send any tension they have to their face so it wouldn't be in their hands when doing some complicated riffing.
So... I've just spent the entire last night checking out the videos, slept, worked, came back and watched this video... Quite a channel I gotta say. Gotta point one thing out though, I'm not entirely sure what type of liquid they use for the fire effects, but Rammstein uses primarily gasoline for their fire "effects". Also, song recommendations, why not. Valley of the Damned in Loud Park Festival, Japan, because you mentioned about the solo.
I forget which reactor called that last part a "double banshee slide," but now the term lives rent free in my head. I always love seeing people hear that for the first time. If you want more of Floor and Marco together, you might like "Last Ride of the Day" or "Ghost River" from this same concert, Wacken 2013. And if you're interested in more female-fronted rock/metal stuff, you might enjoy the bands Halestorm or The Warning. Halestorm's Lzzy Hale was recently featured on a phenomenal cover of Journey's "Separate Ways" by Daughtry. And The Warning has some great recently uploaded live stuff on their YT.
"Dark Chess of Wonder" started the concert and it had more. Later when you get to the concert in Tampere the closing song "The Greatest Show on Earth" has more pyrotechnics than any other song (it's outdoors and it's wild). The song is LONG if you watch to the very end.
You mentioned “scrunchy face.” Also known as stank face. Acceptable in jazz, funk, rap, rock, metal, dubstep, etc. it’s generally used to convene the experience of heaviness or a response to virtuosity. The genre doesn’t matter, check out “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” - The Beatles
you MUST watch Nightwish - Yours Is An Empty Hope Live Wembley arena 2015 . let's see if you can discover the surprise haha. and NO it is NOT Marco you hear growling but who is from the band ??
You look on the lyric "I am an Eider covered in oil". A metaphor for an innocent tainted with cruelty. BTW, an Eider is a European water foul. Get it? The wicked witch scream is all about a scream of frustration over the end of a romance gone bad. Romanticide is the death or killing of romance. I think you would love "Wish I Had an Angel", from Wacken 2013 of course. The 2nd song in the set list. See link. ruclips.net/video/CbbGdTBkKnY/видео.html - 🎼 NIGHTWISH 🎶 Wish I Had An Angel 🎶 Live At Wacken 2013 ☢ CORRECT SPEED ☢
You’re obviously taken with Floor and Marco singing together, the Yours is an empty hope from Wembley is epic! 🤩 Great reaction but you must learn to windmill like Floor 😈
Great reaction! Keep it up! You should go back and check some older stuff as well, since you liked the one with Tarja ;) Also, treat yourself and watch some of Marko's solo stuff.
Google Translator recognises "Romanticide", which is translated to Finnish as "romanttinen murha", which means "Romantic Murder" - you can try this in other languages too.. Of course in the song it is used in a context of "murdering the Romance in a relationship"..
Hi Rachel. If you want to hear Marco singing solo (with a bit of Nightwish in the background), there is an awesome ballad that he performs at the Tampere live concert called "The Islander". you will love it :)
I concur, and would Master Passion Greed, one of the most angry, emotional, and hard songs NW has ever done.
And also the tribute to the Pink Floyd song High Hopes with Marko singing is awesome!
@@alancarter41 I agree, but I'd say for her to hold off on Master Passion Greed, because she still needs to get through a few other songs before being thrown to that one. As she's a singer and understands lyrical meaning, that one would be a deep one to explain.

It's spiritual experience 🔥🤘

And poor Floor having to learn a lot of these songs with lots of complicated lyrics in just 2 days to replace Anette
A superb poet...in a second language... Sometimes wonder what he could/does write poetry in his FIRST laguage. Almost makes me want to learn Finnish!
"Yours is an empty hope" live from Wembley Arena next would be awesome. Great reaction.
That's called your 'stank face', during the guitar solo, love it. Only true metal heads have one! Awesome reaction!!
This gonna be gooood!NWA🇫🇮🤘👍😎
Extra beautiful reaction. This is one of their heavier ones. My personal favorite from this Wacken show is Song of Myself. Keep exploring Nightwish. It’s worth it.
I concur - Song of Myself please!

It's a long one, but play it to the end. (about 24 mins)
great song, got my vote too
From Tampere, i prefer Stargazers.
Let’s have her react to The Poet and The Pendulum first, then one, or is she ready for that one?
Seen their first ever gig back in 1997 and over 60 shows after that and they still suprise me!!!
Jukka is an absolute beast on drums in this song. This has to be one of his favorite songs to perform.
It's time for Ghost River! From the same concert ^_^
If you want a lot of effects during a song, during the same song, they did a song called "The Last Ride of the Day". This one is actually crazy in terms of effect IMO.

Yours is an empty hope is wembley arena also nightwish cruise😅😅

The Wembley version is better, most reactors choose it
@@tedbaker3846 Best of the lot, although "Rock in Rio" has some unique shots.
There is no "Yours is an empty hope" at Wacken 2013. The song was released in 2015. 🤣🤣🤣
you have my favorite reactions to Nightwish because I believe you are actually a fan and part of the Army now. and the words you use and talking to yourself are gorgeous just like you. I guess in short you are fun to watch.
One of the best, if not the best solo from any of their songs
Get on the Nightwish express. It takes you away. You don’t know where they’ll take you but you know it going to be friggin’ epic.
Sensory overload….and Floorgasms..NW style!!
she is not ready yet to listen "the greatest show on earth" by nightwish, it will blow her mind with floor and marko singing
but, must use the Tampere version.....
@@roy19491 With lyrics 😊
Simply and absolutely Amazing performance! Good react again Beauty. See you at the next! 🤟🏻🦊🔥🔥🔥🇯🇵

or alternately, take a look at the masked singer (finland)
I never get tired of Nightwish reactions!
A beautiful reaction to a beautiful band by a beautiful girl......What's not to love? Blessings to you, Rachel!
We love your inexplicable scrunchy face. ❤
The witchiness continues in Annette's and Marco's performance of "Scaretale"'
Yours is an empty hope from Wembley Arena🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This song is Like a Coffee with Red Bull .... On Steroids 🤘❤🔥🤘.
The “scream” at the end is called a glissando, going from low to high and back, for classically trained singers this is an exercise to warm up the vocal cords, so Floor will do this probably every day before breakfast 😆.

Another G.R.E.A.T. reaction. It is so much fun to see you enjoy and make us enjoying even more. Thanks again Rachel.
Last Ride of the Day at Wacken 2013 is absolutely amazing, and has a lot of Marco and fireworks :)))
"Song of Myself" next please. Same 2013 Wacken concert.
Hey Rayactions. Yes, that was fun. Great reaction to this banger of a performance. Keep them coming.
tuomas is quite possibly the greatest gift to music
With this song I am awakened in the morning.
And I have energy for the whole day.
That bridge or whatever is still to this day, my favorite part of any song ever.
Listen to something from her former Band ReVamp, progressive Metal. She growls, it is amazing
still my fave nightwish song, it never gets old imo
Back to WackAm... and you doing the crunchy face. Ahhh i needed this today, i love your energy!
Best sounding live band ever , I’ve seen over 300 shows and one of the best Pink Floyd but NW still has them. I’ll have to go to Europe to see them
There is even more of Floor and Marko singing both heavier and softer and without Nightwish like Christmas music.
please react to "While Your Lips Are Still Red" Marko is the first voice in that music o/ big hug from brazil!
The banshee glissando gets ‘em *every time* ! 😂
Floor Jansen & The Red Limo String Quartet - Energize Me .
Acoustic , No mic , no audio amplification , no audio tricks
simply 100% PURE Floor-Power .
this is from before the Nightwish period.
this is a song from Floor's old band After Forever.

I knew you were going to rewind it at the part of the metal scream duet.... you just can't help it. I get it. 😲
So fun to see your reactions to Nightwish!
I love your reactions. You're so genuine. ❤❤ Romanticide is loving someone that never returns that love "and you eventually find yourself drowning in the black abyss of rejection".
That was fun 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Knew you'd love the Floor-raid siren. G3 - D6 and back! ...... and Marko being the best Marko ever!
"ghost river live from wacken", their voices together epic yeah!
Your smiling is so nice. we love you and your reactions to NW. Thanks.
I love how even Empoo after that last scream is staring at her like how do you make that sound lol.
Do Ghost River next...more Marko singing
Buenos Aires 2018 concert is also another great set list
UK Army popping in for a great reaction.
Here is a playlist to keep you going:

and maybe some more Sabaton and Beast in Black 😜🔥🤘
When "The boy" is mentioned in the Lyrics its often referring to Tuomas.
That slide down on that last scream is just insane!
🇬🇧 Norfolk strapped in for the ride 😊
love your reactions, so much enthusiasm and love for the music

You could do Dead Boy's Poem in the future, that song is beautiful and deserves more attention.
Facemelting. The word you are looking for when a solo scrunches up your face is facemelting. 😂
The term you're looking for with Empuu's solo is stank face. And it fits with any GOOD solo
If you haven't seen it yet, check out Ghost River (same concert performance) Floor and Marko trade back and forth in that song. I think you'd like it!
