I love that you pause and say we dont hear much of her metal growling riiiiiight before she just GETS INTO IT. She is my favorite vocalist of all time!
Floor has the whole Wembley Arena under her spell, just like she does everywhere where she appears on stage. Who doesn't get emotional when Floor is singing must be dead without knowing it.
I too find it strange that there are people out there that can sit and listen to Floor sing, and the whole Nightwish band without one simple reaction. They just sit there and say like so, okay well? Well? Well hell, are you dead and don't know it? People like that who don't have emotions and human reactions, scare the holy living hell out of me. How do you get through a world like ours without having reactions? Now I know what Pink Floyd was talking about when they sang about being comfortably Numb. I call those folks zombies.
Nightwish between songs gives off very big tea and knit blanket vibes. Like they'll tell a dad joke and offer you a hard candy from a porcelain dish on the coffee table before rocking out.
heh, I get what Mitchell's saying, though. Marko's comments in particular (not in this song obviously, since Floor is the one who speaks at the start) have a dad joke feel to them.
One thing I noticed about Floor's growl in this song is it's exactly in tune with Marko's voice just in a much lower register. Most growlers are not in tune with the song.
I gave you a thumbs up for this... Great reaction with some really good insights. If possible, I would have given 2 thumbs up, an extra one for great colours! Green, purple, blue and yellow... 👍👍👍
Wonderful Reaction !!! And I could listen to your accent ALL day ☺️... LOL, I'm from Tennessee USA ❤️, so you would probably laugh at mine !!! Floor is a goddess !!! Such fun, y'all !
Coming home from work and this waits for me? Heck yeah! The perfect ending to a challenging week! Thanks Sam! 🌷 Well, there is a good reason they call Floor the Swiss knife of singing, right? She can do anything! Good one Sam! 🙂
Pilea peperomioides aka Chinese money plant aka pannenkoekplant (Dutch for pancake) :-)) This song is one of my favourites, you've helped me alot with your explanation of the growls/fry also, one day... one day I'll be able to do it too, haha
You know, i gotta say, your thumbnails are very attractive. The way they are stylized and the font and the pic of the group there and your faces lol, it's aesthetically pleasing. Does that make sense to anyone?
Your insight on the vocals are great. (Just rewind a couple of seconds. & go again so we can see what you just explained). Your reaction at 9:15 - 9:20 is how we all feel when Floor captivates the entire crowd! 😹
Hello space doodly plant! 👋🏼🌱💚 I'm not entirely sure, but it looks an awful lot like pilea peperomioides (Chinese money plant). Love your plant family haha And so happy for more Nightwish!! Love the way you broke down this song and Floor's singing. You pick up on so much the first time listening. Really hope you do more Nightwish very soon! I put it on your community post for Halloween suggestions, but it would be cool to do Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Nightwish. (Or I'm Not a Vampire Revamped by Falling in Reverse for spooky season.) Thanks and your hair is looking great btw! The silver is growing out nicely haha
FYI: For the best view of Floor's growling in this song, see the version from Rock in Rio - 2015. Particularly her final growl: ruclips.net/video/YCEsGMClyVQ/видео.html
Well, I’ll be honest, this isn’t my preferred genre. However, I have to give props for being able to appreciate the skill and talent of this group. You focused on the technical aspects of their voices, the singing techniques they were using and the over performance levels. That shows just how well you’ve trained for this type of music analysis. Well done Sam.
A bit more of (a blonde) Floor growling - and classical voice as well - After Forever (her band previous to Nightwish) "Disdain" Live at Graspop 2010: ruclips.net/video/iNSf64M9uA0/видео.html. Don't forget to duct-tape your brain to stop it exploding! Or an even younger Floor (21): After Forever - Monolith Of Doubt Live At Kopspijkers (2002): ruclips.net/video/3TmKHkQx45U/видео.html. Enjoy!
Great reaction! Floor just is beyond words! Can you imagine being in an intimate moment with a beautiful woman and she unleashes one of those growls on you? Yikes!
Hey Sam! You should definitely check Nightwish song "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" (live at Buenos Aires) where Floor and Marco are having a "duel". Mindblow.
Nicely done. That's the first time I heard anyone mention Floor's lower lip position during the 'Siren Section' And here I thought it was just Coy Dutch-Language-Influenced Siren Floor doing Dutch Language Influenced things, Love the "Yaaars. Is. A." pronunciation... half pirate, all Dutch. Congrats on the green thumb, btw. I seem to kill every indoor plant I come in contact with.
You are so good in analyzing voices. You are the first reactor who heard it was Floor growling very low and Marko singing above that tone. Floor can do ANYTHING with her voice in a responsible way. She has a 1000 voices within her. So diverse. I never heard someone sing like her. Marko has a beautiful voice actually. He did some nice harmonies with Floor in other songs. Thank you for responding again on nightwish.
Hey, I always hearing your input on Floor. Her abilities just continue to amaze me at over a year and a half of discovering her, and your breaking down what she is doing verbally is outstanding. I believe like you said, she can do anything vocally she decides to do. In a recent chat with Floor I told her that I believed she can sing anything anyway she wants and that I have heard vocal coaches trying to pinpoint what type of soprano she is, and what type she considers herself. Her reply, sweet as always was that she never liked to box the voice into a specific type.
Hi mate hope u ok im 49 in uk huge nightwish fan got all cds dvds rareities. Yes great song great vocals. To hear floor growl more check out floor in her previous band revamp.check out revamp disdain live grasspop. Ul be shocked but in good way mate ul love it.hope u ok
I would love love love to see you react to Heart Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors. The Kennedy Center Honors is an annual honor given to those in the performing arts for their lifetime of contributions to American culture. Led Zeppelin asked for Heart to cover Stairway to Heaven and its an amazing performance.
Diana Ankudinova has a new release that came out yesterday and I have to say its her most Epic performance yet.. She is 18 now... ITs from a Russian TV show called Show Mask Go On... she is covering and Elvis tune. Cant help falling in Love. ruclips.net/video/w06R8iI0dg0/видео.html
9:25 When I hear this part of the song I feel reminded of the sirens in Homer's Odyssey, who lured passing sailors to their deaths with their seductive singing. Anyone else?
Ha! "yes Marco!" - love it you might like this one, 2010 with Revamp ruclips.net/video/iNSf64M9uA0/видео.html equally polite in the beginning =) or is she?
If you want to analyze another singer but keep to the same genre as Nightwish, I would suggest checking out Versailles - Masquerade ( ruclips.net/video/niAl_paNrh0/видео.html ). It's a very talented band that sadly get way to little attention.

could not agree more...I get the "that was ok", reaction from some people, does not compute !
FLOORS GROWLS ARE SO FREAKING DEEP HER DEEPEST GROWL is an A1
Haha, Marko and Sam are laughing when Floor is growling. Still she's so polite and kind to them. 😂👍
The harsh metal voice made them to do this. Floors growls were responsible for this. What would you do, shes 1.85 amazon growling
Floor is the most versatile singer on the planet
and Marko Saaresto ( Poets Of The Fall )
Best female voice in the World, Wonderful on stage 💥👍✌
With this show Nightwish became the first ever Finnish band to sell out Wembley Arena.
Every song surprises. Nightwish are so talented and their music is so diverse and yet easily recognizable.
And thank you so much for your analyses...!
Nightwish between songs gives off very big tea and knit blanket vibes. Like they'll tell a dad joke and offer you a hard candy from a porcelain dish on the coffee table before rocking out.
One of the more unusual observations I have read.
heh, I get what Mitchell's saying, though. Marko's comments in particular (not in this song obviously, since Floor is the one who speaks at the start) have a dad joke feel to them.
"There's a grit to her voice" - That's what he said. Right before the first chorus. And he had no idea what was about to hit him right in the face 😅
I had fun, cheers for your reaction. I also loved the explanations.
That was the best reaction I've seen to this song ❤️ Even without theoretical knowledge, one understands what you are talking about
The crowd in that arena needed a safeword during this. Floor sang like she could take the entire front row out (she probably could...)
One thing I noticed about Floor's growl in this song is it's exactly in tune with Marko's voice just in a much lower register. Most growlers are not in tune with the song.
Well, that's because she's that good at it.
Lovely reaction. The boyish charm, enthusiasm combined with knowledge still work.
The passion /quality of them is always unbelievable ... maybe the best I have ever seen and never ...never boring after so many times
Awesome!! Lovin the frosty tips brother!!
She's an amazing force of nature!!!!!
YES !
Metal is kindness
Gotta love Floor's growls. :)
This is the first song that show. That's confidence :D
Second. First song was Shudder before the Beautiful
Perfect reaction as usual...hello from south of france
I gave you a thumbs up for this... Great reaction with some really good insights. If possible, I would have given 2 thumbs up, an extra one for great colours! Green, purple, blue and yellow... 👍👍👍

i learned something today from your comments. so thank you.
The space diddly plant is a Pilea peperomioides, commonly known as the Chinese Money Plant, soo...there you go. 🙃🤷♀️

This song is one of my favourites, you've helped me alot with your explanation of the growls/fry also, one day... one day I'll be able to do it too, haha
Great vocal warmup for the rest of the 2 hour show
Yes my friend. Marco takes the lead for the chorus and Floor does the growling. The vocal techniques just keep on coming. Loved it SS-T. Be well.
Always love your reaction Sam.
She can do anything, hence the title.
Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy. .😇😇😇😇😇😇
Hail Nightwish
You know, i gotta say, your thumbnails are very attractive. The way they are stylized and the font and the pic of the group there and your faces lol, it's aesthetically pleasing. Does that make sense to anyone?

Your reaction at 9:15 - 9:20 is how we all feel when Floor captivates the entire crowd! 😹
Wanna hear Floor growling, Listen to Revamp “Disdain” Live at Graspop!
Yes!! And Head up High, and Monsters 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Hello space doodly plant! 👋🏼🌱💚 I'm not entirely sure, but it looks an awful lot like pilea peperomioides (Chinese money plant). Love your plant family haha

Agreed youve found the loudest growl 👌🏻👌🏻Poor hannes :-)
Yes Floor doing the growls ^^
Great reaction and breakdown Sam, as always.
I love when she turns into the Banshee Queen herself.

More Nightwish please!!!! :-)
and after the growling in this song, there was a whole concert to follow..
She is the swiss army knife of singing
In Sweden we call those plats "Elephant ears". I have really Looking forward for this reaction... Love this song ❤️
Enjoyed listening very much! Thanks! I am a suby now!
Sam Scott-Thorne, I would love to hear you singing in a metal band. You have a marvellous voice.
You must do "Dead Boys Poem", live from Buenos Aires 2018....
Vehicle of Spirit was the 2015 tour captured on the 2 DVD set. The other concert in VoS was Tampere.
Oh there's a new plant diva? I see you newb. Fun vid as always, thank you Sam :)
First song of the set thats how comfortable floor is with her growls
Great reaction! Floor just is beyond words! Can you imagine being in an intimate moment with a beautiful woman and she unleashes one of those growls on you? Yikes!
Instant floorgasm 😂
Hey Sam! You should definitely check Nightwish song "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" (live at Buenos Aires) where Floor and Marco are having a "duel". Mindblow.
Nightwish Army Manila Appreciates \m/,
Floor's last growl at this show always makes me think mountain lion 😨😃🔥
Nicely done.
That's the first time I heard anyone mention Floor's lower lip position during the 'Siren Section'
And here I thought it was just Coy Dutch-Language-Influenced Siren Floor doing Dutch Language Influenced things,
Love the "Yaaars. Is. A." pronunciation... half pirate, all Dutch.
Congrats on the green thumb, btw. I seem to kill every indoor plant I come in contact with.
Yes Floor can do a lot of things but imitate Marco's voice? No. So of course Marco sings the clean vocals and Floor the growling. 😁
Sam,you are the man!💪
this song goes out to all the internet trolls out there feeling left out :D
Jaja nice!!! More nightwish please... And check Disdain - Revamp yeah Floor&growls. Greettings from México 😎🤘🇲🇽

This song was written for her voice, so she is more versatile here than songs written for Tarja or Anette
I love the plant everywhere🌱🌿🪴🪴
What a majestic woman...
in the Netherland we call that plant a pancakeplant, floor is a queen
Yep, Floor is doing the growling..
Now I can't stop looking at the plant.
They play little braingame with listener. Your brain tell you it can't be Floor growling and Marco singing higher, but so it is.
I think it's a Chinese Money Plant - Pilea Peperomioides. The one flowering is a Peace Lily.
Yup, it's a Pilea peperomioides
In Dutch we call them pancakeplant.
Can’t Help Falling in Love - Диана Анкудинова !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Hi mate hope u ok im 49 in uk huge nightwish fan got all cds dvds rareities. Yes great song great vocals. To hear floor growl more check out floor in her previous band revamp.check out revamp disdain live grasspop. Ul be shocked but in good way mate ul love it.hope u ok
For Floor this song is the opposite of Shoemaker where she goes full opera. (checkout the wiki of Eugene Shoemaker before reacting)
I would love love love to see you react to Heart Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors. The Kennedy Center Honors is an annual honor given to those in the performing arts for their lifetime of contributions to American culture. Led Zeppelin asked for Heart to cover Stairway to Heaven and its an amazing performance.
Floor had two other bands ReVamp and AfterForever where she used to grow a lot. You should check em out.
Floor Jansen Forever !!!
Nuff Said !!!
NWSU 🤘😎🤘.
Also check out the online show Epica did....
Unchain Utopia is just WOW
Hearing Floor growl, Revamp-disdain or ReVamp-wildcard is the way
Love how they switch the growl on the final notes when Floor goes clean and Marko takes over the growling.
Nice reaction! Try Marcella Bovio from MAYAN "Rebirth from Despire", she does the same singing styles, from head voice to chest and also growling
Diana Ankudinova has a new release that came out yesterday and I have to say its her most Epic performance yet.. She is 18 now... ITs from a Russian TV show called Show Mask Go On... she is covering and Elvis tune. Cant help falling in Love. ruclips.net/video/w06R8iI0dg0/видео.html
@Sam Scott-Thorne heads up, Diana is back! every sat for 2 months link to round 1 here ruclips.net/video/w06R8iI0dg0/видео.html
React to a former band of Floor, Revamp with the song: Trail of Monsters (live at Graspop) You get a more gritty Floor 👌🤙
It's a Pilea peperomioides Sam
9:25 When I hear this part of the song I feel reminded of the sirens in Homer's Odyssey, who lured passing sailors to their deaths with their seductive singing.
Anyone else?
Off topic, the round leaved plant looks like an Antherium.
aye, that is her growling
Thanks
Please some Floor "pre-Nightwish", I want to see your reaction on that
Ha! "yes Marco!" - love it
you might like this one, 2010 with Revamp
ruclips.net/video/iNSf64M9uA0/видео.html
equally polite in the beginning =) or is she?
I really like angry Nightwish songs.
hey. why did you never do another Jinjer reaction. There are 3 female voices kicking it on youtube now. Floor, Tatiana and diana ankudinova
The plant you pointed out is a Pilea.
great reaction! why doesn't youy react the songs "stranger" and " avemaria" of the unique dimash? you will be speechless!!
😊🇫🇮🤘❤️🎶🎹🎸🥁✨👍
Still hoping for more reactions to JP Leppäluoto. 😅
Quick question, Why is it when people sing thay lose there accent??😉😉
If you want to analyze another singer but keep to the same genre as Nightwish, I would suggest checking out Versailles - Masquerade ( ruclips.net/video/niAl_paNrh0/видео.html ).
It's a very talented band that sadly get way to little attention.
BTS and Coldplay! hello! english band! your country! come on ! we are waiting here! love you! greetings from Tricity in Poland!
