The last minute of Everdream, with the double bass drum and music intensity, is like a runaway steam train with Floor as the conductor and the lads stoking that boiler 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
One of the truly special performances from Nightwish. Absolutely beautiful and powerful! If you want something new to check out I can really recommend checking out the Hellfest 2022 performances. They are so incredible as well.
I agree. Hellfest was great. The live stream audio was/is extremely good! I really liked it. I also liked Pinkpop but, the audio sound was better at Hellfest. Also liked her solo at Pinkpop. She performed twice that day. Take care and warm greetings from The Netherlands 👍💜🍀🤘🇳🇱🌷🤗
If you want to see your comment about Floor’s operatic performance come to life, I would recommend her take on ”O mio babbino caro”. It is exactly what you’re describing at 9:50! Hope you enjoy :)
Oh boy. This is the tip of the iceberg, she does rock, pop, operatic, classical and full,on harsh vocals as well. There really is nothing she cant sing.
Welcome Dave, there is a lot to discover, this particular concert from 2013 will surely go down in musical history. Collectively we are know as the Nightwish Army!
In that case you should check out her two previous bands, After Forever and ReVamp, as well. Floor's early work does not get enough attention IMHO--it's like nobody realizes she had already been doing metal for FOURTEEN YEARS before joining Nightwish.
Hi G., Floor did a stint in the Netherlands with the TV-Show "Beste Zangers" as she was unknownd to the audience in the Netherlands her first song "Vilia Lied" threw the other musicians. They expected a "heavy metal chic" to scream around. Instead they got an aria by a professional sopranist. here is the link: ruclips.net/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/видео.html G. as usual stay safe and sound, greetings to your wife to, Elmar from Germany
" Ever Dream " is the sixth single by Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. Released as the first single from the band's fourth studio album, Century Child, it was the group's first single in two years, following " Deep Silent Complete " in 2000. The song is more operatic in nature than later works and the music itself is more on the heavy metal side. It is still played live since 2002 until today. "Ever Dream" was certified with Gold Disc in Finland two days after its release, with more than 5,000 copies sold, and later received Platinum Disc with more than 10,000 copies sold.
If you haven't done SONG OF MYSELF do that & for MARCO has to be "while your lips are still red" really shows his ability to sing beautifully and the guitar solo with an EBOW by TROY is UNFORGETTABLE & shows TROY'S talent. I must give a shout out to JUKA on drums ......O.M.G Great reaction as always.
Please check out "Noise" at Hellfest Festival only three days ago. Showopener. ruclips.net/video/pYIX1Jyb64E/видео.html - Floor is blowing your mind. Trust me. 9 years after Wacken they are still fantastic 😊

Check out Buenos Aires then. Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean has Marco and Floor. Dead Boy's Poem is Floor (bring tissues) Slaying the Dreamer is Floor being incredible. You have to remember how hot that leather is under stage lights. She NEEDS a fan.
I don't think Nightwish have done a live concert performance with an orchestra, but a number of other symphonic metal groups have, Epica and Within Temptation being two which spring to mind.
While Nightwish does use orchestra, it is pre recorded and used in the background. Even the instrumental and orchestra parts ARE live recordings of professional choirs and instrumental groups, not digitally made. I am not sure why they never really went for the live on stage, would make it even more epic. lol.
@@vir9002 As far as I know Nightwish said that touring with a real orchestra is kind of complicated. Epica and Within Temptation did it but, only in The Netherlands. Touring isn't that easy with an orchestra.
This song really takes off at the triple punch of the quiet bit, key change and double time. And then Floor and Marco belt simultaneously. That's powerful stuff.
Marco is amazing. Try out the beautiful song he's the sole vocal on.... While Your Lips Are Still Red featured on a film Lieksa. Just shows he's a great singer. Also he features heavily in The Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean - amazing song. Also love your reaction to Noise and also Weak Fantasy. Floor is truly incredible. Check her out with her cover of Phantom of the Opera a very different take on her performance.
If you choose to react to Kiss while you're lips are still red then do the live version from Wembley it's beautiful, Also if you like Pink Floyd check out Nightwish homage to High Hopes this is superb.
The performance at Hellfest on the w/e was very nearly as good..IMHO. This band are still very much in their prime. (even without Marco). Check out Hellfest...you'll love it.
That final chorus is really something, isn't it? Going up a step melodically with Jukka's double kicks certainly works for me. This is yet another true Nightwish classic that Floor has made her own. As for a recommendation, I think it's time for you to see Dead Boy's Poem from Buenos Aires. Have the Kleenex nearby when you do. Thanks for another great reaction and congrats on 100k!!!
Tuomas “metal mozart” is composing/recording all the symphonic stuff with real orchestra’s (like the London Philharmonic) so he does not need an orchestra on stage. For Floor’s former bands After Forever an Revamp it just would have been too expensive. But Epica did to celebrate their 10th anniversary and they did 2 great songs with their singer Simone Simons and Floor Jansen: Sancta Terra and Stabat Mater, a must see! Here a historic moment: Nightwish recording the orchestral part for “Song of myself” in the Angel Studios in London (pre Floor era): ruclips.net/video/KuM9_duA5e0/видео.html
Hello I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have a daughter. ( Freja ) Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish. Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016. From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020. Greetings from the Netherlands.
lol I love at around 7:30 when it picks up after that little lull I can see how you sort of forget yourself in the music. Love this song and LOVE that moment, every time ♥
Floor always had a "floor fan" 😂 on the bottom before here. Already back in the days of After Forever. I mean, what have you thought why her hair is always flowing in the wind ? Her for example an old video from 2002 : After Forever - Monolith Of Doubt Live At Kopspijkers (2002) ruclips.net/video/3TmKHkQx45U/видео.html For the Orchestra question, Epica and Within Temptation have performed with Orchestras, but i don't think Nightwish has ever done it live. But here you can see at least Tuomas and his wife Johanna Kurkela in studio with and Orchestra : TUOMAS HOLOPAINEN - A Lifetime of Adventure (OFFICIAL VIDEO) ruclips.net/video/JWwSVOo5K_k/видео.html
People were ALWAYS commenting about Floor's hair blowing in the breeze, all she has to do is walk. So as a gag, one of the guys recorded her just walking in the supermarket, pushing a cart around. It's only a few seconds long but it proves the point. I do not know where to find that video though. :P
You may enjoy Tuomas' solo work (Auri) with his wife and Troy from Nightwish. Check out 'in the valley' and/or 'the space between', they are good starting positions...
For Marko on lead you should defined look at 1. High Hopes (Pink Floyd Cover) 2. The Islander 3. Bye Bye Beautiful (with Anette) For the original lead singer Tarja (my favorite) 1. I Wish I had an Angel 2. Nemo 3. Elvenpath (1st song on Nightwish's first album) For Anette the 2nd lead singer 1. Amaranth 2. Scaretale 3. Storytime For Other Bands to React to Rammstein - Angst (Official Music Video) Geoff Castallucci - 16 Tons Alestorm - F**ked by an Anchor (Not a good song, but hilarious)
It's a FLOORFAN!!! 🤣 Nightwish just did Hellfest in France - and that 90 minutes show were on the same level as Wacken 2013 - when Floor is in THAT mood, nothing comes even close to Nightwish. The whole concert is on YT - and yes Floor is bar far the greatest storyteller, vocalist and front stage performer ever. And NO, Nightwish have never done an orchestral performance - and they probably never will, according to Tuomas. And yes Floor has done a few operatic performances like: ruclips.net/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/видео.html
Nightwish has not played live with an orchestra, although they work with a London Symphony and choirs to make tracks to mix for studio and stage performances. Now Floor with an Orchestra, check out her guest performance with Epica onstage with an orchestra. One song with Floor singing a duet with only the orchestra. Watch her acknowledge the conductor and even curtsey to him at the end. I heard something about her singing her new single Storm with an orchestra of military vets just recently. Haven't seen it yet.
Marco sings lead on: The Islander, live at Tampere While Your Lips Are Still Red, live at Wembley High Hopes (Pink Floyd cover), from End of an Era Some songs with Marco and Floor sharing vocal duties… Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, live at Buenos Aires Song of Myself, live at Wacken 2013 I don’t think Nightwish have done a live show with an orchestra, but I’m pretty sure Floor’s fist band After Forever performed live with at least a string section on occasion.
Wembley is another of their best performances! '7 Days to the Wolves', 'While Your Lips Are Still Red', and 'Poet and the Pendulum' are MUST SEE performances from that show! =)
You still have to look at Wembley, Tampere, Buenos Aires, Pinkpop, Hellfest, Beste Zangers, Areyon, guest at Epica, Sing Meinem Song, Nordward etc. Not to mention her own shows in the Netherlands.
There is a weather phenomenon with local winds. As of right now (and since 25yrs ago), it stays in front of Floor wherever she walks. Much Love to you and Ukraine 🌻🌻🌻💙💛💙
You want to see floor singing with a full orchestra? Then check out:- 'Sancta Terra' where she guests with the band Epica, duetting with Simone Simons (amazing!)... then there is 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa' also with Epica, (same concert?). Then there is Floor singing in a tv studio a Puccini aria with piano accompaniment 'O Mio Babbino Cara'.
Of course Floor is amazing, but Marko gets me every time. A couple Marko highlights… The Islander from Tampere, While your lips are still red from Wembly, and Planet Hell and Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires
Nice picture ...Floor going to the Bakery with the Hair in the wind....I agree....this is what I expect too...:-) And that we all recommend Wacken....easy explanation: cause it was great...the planets aligned at that evening. But when we are done with Wacken we can switch over to Wembley....and trust the Army...you will like that too.....different concert but also GREAT. ...And then...there is still Buenos Aires and Tampere.....Awesome....you have so much to discover....They are all verrrrrry good.... All Hail Queen Floor !
Nightwish's Wacken 2013 is a justifiably epic live performance. However over the last 10 years Nightwish has continued to evolve and mature into an even more amazing band with their last album Human Nature ,their best in my opinion. It is worth going through each song in order, especially since the album was released right before the pandemic and because they couldn't tour in support of the album they released lyric videos (really full blown music videos with lyrics) for each song except Noise which they did an official music video for. Disc 2 is a 30 minute orchestral piece composed by Tuomas that is just gorgeous and should be viewed in a video made by Sensei Music Videos that Tuomas has blessed. Also worth checking out is their live performance from Hellfest that ARTE streamed and has posted on YT. Really shows how powerful they still are. Nightwish has never performed with a live orchestra. Floor has done a few performances with live orchestral groups. Her performance of Energize Me, a song from her first band After Forever, with the Red Limo String Quartet, is quite beautiful. ruclips.net/video/uzW1jDAt69Q/видео.html. Would make a nice double reaction with the original. She also performed Sound of the Wind from the Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles video game with the Metropole Orchestra. There is no video of the actual concert but there is this beautiful video of a rehearsal. ruclips.net/video/praTQmnqIs4/видео.html.
Hey, always good to watch a performance of Floor in her former band Revamp. For me is the song Disdain the best . A ‘ angry’ blond, growling Floor, a total different site of Floor and a great band.
Floor doesn't float...she drives a Chevy pickup truck! Marko Hietala (pron: HEE-ah-Tallah) is a classically trained guitarist, bassist, songwriter and incredible vocalist both solo and in harmony. If you read your comments, you'd know this by now. You really should know this by now. So happy you love Floor so much! I recently caught a new reactor seeing Ghost Love Score for the first time...he got a minute in, then paused with tears in his eyes and declared, "she's the reason aliens visit earth!" Which was so damn funny but spot on and heartfelt!
The stellar thing about Floor is really the breath of her abilities. Will you find a better operatic singer than her? Most probably. Will you find a better growler? Definetly. Will you find a better belting range with that much volume behind it? Already difficult, Floors belting quality and stamina is insane. Will you be able to find another person that does all of this that well and can switch between all techniques in a split second? Very, very hard. I haven't heard anyone yet. And then she adds in that insane stage presence and feeling in her voice. Not just technique, but real entertainment. Taken all of this together, she is firmly in the camp of the best live performers that I ever had the priviledge to witness. And yes, quite objectively, I think you can make an argument is she currently is the best all-around musical performer alive right now. And above all that , she is a truly humble human being.
You are soo hyped, love youre reactions, and please keep going on this NW yourney. And Marco on base Empu gitar Kai on drums Troy, on everithing Floor vocal
if I may suggest, watch that ever dream video in complete peace again and again and again.... I've done that about a thousand times myself. You just can't get tired of that song. yes it's Marco 🤘 and the purple guitar is played by Emppu, the drummer is Jukka and the greatness himself on the keyboard is Tuomas
Yep, that's Marco. Marco-centric:- The Islander (Tampere 2015) While Your Lips Are Still Red (Wembley 2015) High Hopes (End Of An Era 2005) Pink Floyd Cover. Ghost River (Wacken 2013) Marco/Floor 50/50 Wacken is pronounced Vacken, it's in Germany. Anette is best in the studio/ on video - good videos are Amaranth (Floor did it live at Wacken - also excellent) and Bye, Bye Beautiful (also has a lot of Marco vocals on it).
Wanna hear the bassist sing a song: Kiss when your lips are still red, live in London, another completely different and surprising Nightwish song. This London concert is better than the Wacken concert....I think;-) Fine reaction, thanks. And the Tampere concert is also stunning.
You are correct that male vocal is Marco, He is also the bassist. Jukka beating those drums like they owe him money. Annette music videos Story Time and Amaranth, live Scaretale. Within Temptation - Raise Your Banner extended version.
🤩👌💥💯 Despite the fact Floor has said "Ever Dream" is one of the most challenging song of Nightwish for her to execute on live it really doesn't show... Right? Like your enthusiasm every time when reacting to this magical band. "Weak Fantasy" live at Tampere 2015 next by them (???) 🙄 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Yay, over 100K! Soft start by Floor... acceleration, off we go! Emppu getting extra help with inflatable pink guitar, two sets of hands, Athos and Aramis? Marko, yeah, legend. Floor Fan! So much fun. Marko, Ganstas Paradise?
I am a Sabaton fan but I also love Nightwish they are a fantastic live band with the greatest female singer of all time in my opinion. She has the stage presence like the legendary Freddie Mercury. Floor has the fans wrapped around her little finger just like the greatest Male singer and showman the legend that is Freddie Mercury. Toumas is a musical and writing genius, the man is the new Beethoven. Floor Jansen is a very beautiful woman and very fit with the most beautiful voice in the world, her husband Hannes van Dahl who is the drummer of Sabaton is a very lucky man. British Sabaton fan 💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇸🇪🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇱💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Next song Marco leading : a tribute to Pink Floyd "High Hopes" there you find that Marco has got incredible voice, leading this song and making it as their own. Thank you for your comments and reaction. Greets from Finland.
lol---her hair blowing in the wind...if you look closely at any of her live performances you will see a fan on the floor in front of her microphone stand blowing straight up at her face!!! awesome look I might add!!!
I’ll take your commentary a step further. I believe that Floor has the greatest singing voice ( male or female) in the history of humankind. Her power, diversity and delivery are unmatched.
If you want some extra variations, I recomend the first lead singer, Tarja Turunen. There is a really classical of hers in the concert End of An Era performing The Phantom of the Opera. Another take should be Sancta Terra (from Epica) with the special participation of Floor Jansen. And also, The Greatest Show on Earth from the concert in Tampere. And to finish the journey, The Poet and The Pendulum from the Wembley concert.
No, Nightwish have never performed with a live orchestra present. Ironically I first came across their music when my son was playing in a youth orchestra appearing with a youth rock band and they did a Nightwish cover! It was my favourite piece from that evening. In other news, Within Temptation are also very much worth reacting to!
Yes, there is a fan in front of her. Probably helps keep her cool, but I believe it's to keep her mascara from running. Floor has said that this song is one of the more challenging for her to sing. Anette is the second singer (Tatiana is with Jinjer) . For her I would go with the music video for either 'Bye Bye Beautiful' or 'Amaranth'. (you've heard Floor sing Amaranth) Next song with Floor, I would go with 'Song of Myself' from Wacken (Vah-ken) And Yes, Within Temptation is another good band to check out. My favorite of theirs is 'Ice Queen'. Lead singer is Sharon Den Adel.
I think G meant to say Tarja. But that is okay because so far we have been feeding him mostly Floor's vocals. That's really our fault for not having him react to more of the previous vocalists as well.
Mate... Should it be time to react Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars live rehearsal at Sonic Pump Studios remastered? Truly EPIC performance! Please and peace 🙏🏼😎✌🏼
their version of Pink Floyd "high Hopes", where Marko does the lead will blow you away.....
yes, yes, yes!!!!!
Yep! I love everything Floor does but that performance of High Hopes is still one of my all-time favorites from Nightwish.
It's time for Nightwish, High Hopes. Oh yes.... it's time!
Yes, please!
YIP!!! I COULDN'T AGREE MORE the pink Floyd TRIBUTE is I.M.O a true masterpiece on it's own & MARCO is amazing.
Absofreakinglutely!
Oh yes! Please!!
Dave Gilmour liked it enough to link to it years ago.
The last minute of Everdream, with the double bass drum and music intensity, is like a runaway steam train with Floor as the conductor and the lads stoking that boiler 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
it screams power metal, and then the exhaust of that screams power metal some more

Reage ao Nightwish no Hellfest 2022.

That fan is there as a prop. The breeze blowing her hair is the wind from the angels wings that came to hear her sing.
You may enjoy Tuomas' solo work (Auri) with his wife and Troy from Nightwish. Check out 'in the valley' and/or 'the space between', they are good starting positions...

1. High Hopes (Pink Floyd Cover)
2. The Islander
3. Bye Bye Beautiful (with Anette)
For the original lead singer Tarja (my favorite)
1. I Wish I had an Angel
2. Nemo
3. Elvenpath (1st song on Nightwish's first album)
For Anette the 2nd lead singer
1. Amaranth
2. Scaretale
3. Storytime
For Other Bands to React to
Rammstein - Angst (Official Music Video)
Geoff Castallucci - 16 Tons
Alestorm - F**ked by an Anchor (Not a good song, but hilarious)
I would love to see them in concert. Must have felt so electric to be there.
My favorite song of Nightwish, ever! I love this amazing performance! No mor words! Great react again bro. See you at the next!!
Your joy is so fun to watch!! I felt the same way the first time I heard this one.!
Nightwish Army UK popping in to say there's still tickets for Birmingham in November ... join us
I'll be there too, can't wait after seeing the Hellfest performance.

Appreciate you!
It's rough for me to go with a little one, he'll be 6 months so I'm not sure if I will be but if I can I will let you all know 💯
The NIGHTWISH Drummer is SICK!!!!!!
It's a FLOORFAN!!! 🤣
Nightwish just did Hellfest in France - and that 90 minutes show were on the same level as Wacken 2013 - when Floor is in THAT mood, nothing comes even close to Nightwish.
The whole concert is on YT - and yes Floor is bar far the greatest storyteller, vocalist and front stage performer ever.
And NO, Nightwish have never done an orchestral performance - and they probably never will, according to Tuomas.
And yes Floor has done a few operatic performances like:
ruclips.net/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/видео.html
One of my favorite songs, Floor was incredible here
Nightwish has not played live with an orchestra, although they work with a London Symphony and choirs to make tracks to mix for studio and stage performances. Now Floor with an Orchestra, check out her guest performance with Epica onstage with an orchestra. One song with Floor singing a duet with only the orchestra. Watch her acknowledge the conductor and even curtsey to him at the end. I heard something about her singing her new single Storm with an orchestra of military vets just recently. Haven't seen it yet.
Yes... Floors voice. What can you say? Goosebumps. She is phenomenal as are all the band members. And when Floor and Marco combine, well 😍
Marco sings lead on:
The Islander, live at Tampere
While Your Lips Are Still Red, live at Wembley
High Hopes (Pink Floyd cover), from End of an Era
Some songs with Marco and Floor sharing vocal duties…
Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, live at Buenos Aires
Song of Myself, live at Wacken 2013
I don’t think Nightwish have done a live show with an orchestra, but I’m pretty sure Floor’s fist band After Forever performed live with at least a string section on occasion.
Thank you for a great reaction! You are so much fun to watch
You NEED to check out their cover of High Hopes. Marko is phenomenal
Wembley is another of their best performances! '7 Days to the Wolves', 'While Your Lips Are Still Red', and 'Poet and the Pendulum' are MUST SEE performances from that show! =)
You still have to look at Wembley, Tampere, Buenos Aires, Pinkpop, Hellfest, Beste Zangers, Areyon, guest at Epica, Sing Meinem Song, Nordward etc. Not to mention her own shows in the Netherlands.
There is a weather phenomenon with local winds. As of right now (and since 25yrs ago), it stays in front of Floor wherever she walks.
Much Love to you and Ukraine
🌻🌻🌻💙💛💙
"There's a fan in front of Floor'
Dude there's like 82,000 fans in front of Floor 😛
You want to see floor singing with a full orchestra? Then check out:- 'Sancta Terra' where she guests with the band Epica, duetting with Simone Simons (amazing!)... then there is 'Stabat Mater Dolorosa' also with Epica, (same concert?). Then there is Floor singing in a tv studio a Puccini aria with piano accompaniment 'O Mio Babbino Cara'.
The Happiness on stage and on crowd is unique. That’s Nightwish 🔥❤️🤘🇫🇮
Can we just talk about the drumming on this song is insane.
oh and if you havent allready. check out their take on "high hopes" by pink floyd
my favourite nightwish tune ever. i know youve been doing 2 cellos recently so try the trooper/overture its bangin
💯💯💯🤘
Of course Floor is amazing, but Marko gets me every time. A couple Marko highlights… The Islander from Tampere, While your lips are still red from Wembly, and Planet Hell and Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires
Nice picture ...Floor going to the Bakery with the Hair in the wind....I agree....this is what I expect too...:-)
And that we all recommend Wacken....easy explanation: cause it was great...the planets aligned at that evening. But when we are done with Wacken we can switch over to Wembley....and trust the Army...you will like that too.....different concert but also GREAT. ...And then...there is still Buenos Aires and Tampere.....Awesome....you have so much to discover....They are all verrrrrry good....
All Hail Queen Floor !
Nightwish's Wacken 2013 is a justifiably epic live performance. However over the last 10 years Nightwish has continued to evolve and mature into an even more amazing band with their last album Human Nature ,their best in my opinion. It is worth going through each song in order, especially since the album was released right before the pandemic and because they couldn't tour in support of the album they released lyric videos (really full blown music videos with lyrics) for each song except Noise which they did an official music video for. Disc 2 is a 30 minute orchestral piece composed by Tuomas that is just gorgeous and should be viewed in a video made by Sensei Music Videos that Tuomas has blessed. Also worth checking out is their live performance from Hellfest that ARTE streamed and has posted on YT. Really shows how powerful they still are. Nightwish has never performed with a live orchestra. Floor has done a few performances with live orchestral groups. Her performance of Energize Me, a song from her first band After Forever, with the Red Limo String Quartet, is quite beautiful. ruclips.net/video/uzW1jDAt69Q/видео.html. Would make a nice double reaction with the original. She also performed Sound of the Wind from the Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles video game with the Metropole Orchestra. There is no video of the actual concert but there is this beautiful video of a rehearsal. ruclips.net/video/praTQmnqIs4/видео.html.
Hey, always good to watch a performance of Floor in her former band Revamp. For me is the song Disdain the best . A ‘ angry’ blond, growling Floor, a total different site of Floor and a great band.
Floor doesn't float...she drives a Chevy pickup truck!
Marko Hietala (pron: HEE-ah-Tallah) is a classically trained guitarist, bassist, songwriter and incredible vocalist both solo and in harmony. If you read your comments, you'd know this by now. You really should know this by now.
So happy you love Floor so much! I recently caught a new reactor seeing Ghost Love Score for the first time...he got a minute in, then paused with tears in his eyes and declared, "she's the reason aliens visit earth!" Which was so damn funny but spot on and heartfelt!
The Islander live from Tampere, love love love it!!!!!!
The stellar thing about Floor is really the breath of her abilities.
Will you find a better operatic singer than her? Most probably. Will you find a better growler? Definetly.
Will you find a better belting range with that much volume behind it? Already difficult, Floors belting quality and stamina is insane.
Will you be able to find another person that does all of this that well and can switch between all techniques in a split second? Very, very hard. I haven't heard anyone yet.
And then she adds in that insane stage presence and feeling in her voice. Not just technique, but real entertainment.
Taken all of this together, she is firmly in the camp of the best live performers that I ever had the priviledge to witness.
And yes, quite objectively, I think you can make an argument is she currently is the best all-around musical performer alive right now.
And above all that , she is a truly humble human being.
We have something common. I like Nightwish as you do, but I am 70 years old and live in Finland. Nightwish is the ultimate best live band on earth.
For Annette check out the live versions of Slow Love Slow and Scaretale and check the studio version of Bye Bye Beautiful. She shines on those.
Nightwish songs to check out next? Anything!
😂💯
You are soo hyped, love youre reactions, and please keep going on this NW yourney.
And
Marco on base
Empu gitar
Kai on drums
Troy, on everithing
Floor vocal
If you want more of Marco, you really should react to The Islander live in Tampere. ❤️
if I may suggest, watch that ever dream video in complete peace again and again and again.... I've done that about a thousand times myself. You just can't get tired of that song. yes it's Marco 🤘 and the purple guitar is played by Emppu, the drummer is Jukka and the greatness himself on the keyboard is Tuomas
As to Floor's hair blowing in the breeze no matter where she goes, I've heard that's actually The Floorce. I believe it!
🤣🤣🤣
Lol!! 🤣💯
Rather than decide which songs to pick to react to from that concert, just do a mega reaction to the whole set! It's an epic show
Yep, that's Marco. Marco-centric:-
The Islander (Tampere 2015)
While Your Lips Are Still Red (Wembley 2015)
High Hopes (End Of An Era 2005) Pink Floyd Cover.
Ghost River (Wacken 2013) Marco/Floor 50/50
Wacken is pronounced Vacken, it's in Germany. Anette is best in the studio/ on video - good videos are Amaranth (Floor did it live at Wacken - also excellent) and Bye, Bye Beautiful (also has a lot of Marco vocals on it).
Wanna hear the bassist sing a song: Kiss when your lips are still red, live in London, another completely different and surprising Nightwish song. This London concert is better than the Wacken concert....I think;-) Fine reaction, thanks. And the Tampere concert is also stunning.
She was amazing in May. Saw them in Denver. 9 years after wacken it was great! The only thing missing was Marko
great response to this beautiful song. I am curious when you will do within temptation times you will really love it 100%
MARKO AND FLOOR ARE AMAIZING, ALL THE MEMBERS
You still have Wembly & Tampere 2015 & Buenos Aires 2018!! Go go go!
You are correct that male vocal is Marco, He is also the bassist. Jukka beating those drums like they owe him money. Annette music videos Story Time and Amaranth, live Scaretale.
Within Temptation - Raise Your Banner extended version.
If you haven’t already done so, check out an interview that Floor did at her home in Sweden, think you might be surprised. She is just awesome.
marcos ... voice of my father...🤘🇫🇮👍
💯
🤩👌💥💯
Despite the fact Floor has said "Ever Dream" is one of the most challenging song of Nightwish for her to execute on live it really doesn't show... Right?
Like your enthusiasm every time when reacting to this magical band.
"Weak Fantasy" live at Tampere 2015 next by them (???) 🙄
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Marco: "The Islander", "Kiss while your lips are still red", "Ghost river", "Devil and the deep dark ocean". Just to name a few....
Marco---Bass/Vocals...Empuu---Guitar...Tuomas-Keyboards...Jukka----Drums....Troy---Guitras, Mandolins, Flutes, Pipes
The "FAN" that's in front of her, Blowing her hair, is the Most Important "Floor-Fan" Ever!!!!
The Islander!
One I've been looking forward to hearing 🤘
Should go to her channel and check out her covers as well as her original singles. Just another chance to fall in love even more, if that is possible.
Yay, over 100K!
Soft start by Floor... acceleration, off we go!
Emppu getting extra help with inflatable pink guitar, two sets of hands, Athos and Aramis?
Marko, yeah, legend.
Floor Fan!
So much fun.
Marko, Ganstas Paradise?
I am a Sabaton fan but I also love Nightwish they are a fantastic live band with the greatest female singer of all time in my opinion. She has the stage presence like the legendary Freddie Mercury. Floor has the fans wrapped around her little finger just like the greatest Male singer and showman the legend that is Freddie Mercury. Toumas is a musical and writing genius, the man is the new Beethoven. Floor Jansen is a very beautiful woman and very fit with the most beautiful voice in the world, her husband Hannes van Dahl who is the drummer of Sabaton is a very lucky man. British Sabaton fan 💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇸🇪🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇱💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
If you like Marco`s voice.Check the legendary Northen Kings.Four most epic finish heavy dudes,they do covers like we dont need another hero
Marco Hietala ,Tony Kakko ,JP Leppäluoto and Jarkko Ahola
Next song Marco leading : a tribute to Pink Floyd "High Hopes" there you
find that Marco has got incredible voice, leading this song and making it
as their own.
Thank you for your comments and reaction. Greets from Finland.
There's a fan there's a fan 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that really made me spit my coffee lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol---her hair blowing in the wind...if you look closely at any of her live performances you will see a fan on the floor in front of her microphone stand blowing straight up at her face!!! awesome look I might add!!!
I’ll take your commentary a step further. I believe that Floor has the greatest singing voice ( male or female) in the history of humankind. Her power, diversity and delivery are unmatched.
Her Majesty made you say that. But I agree.
Marco plays the base and was also the vocalist. Empu plays the purple guitar.
If you want some extra variations, I recomend the first lead singer, Tarja Turunen. There is a really classical of hers in the concert End of An Era performing The Phantom of the Opera.
Another take should be Sancta Terra (from Epica) with the special participation of Floor Jansen.
And also, The Greatest Show on Earth from the concert in Tampere.
And to finish the journey, The Poet and The Pendulum from the Wembley concert.
No, Nightwish have never performed with a live orchestra present. Ironically I first came across their music when my son was playing in a youth orchestra appearing with a youth rock band and they did a Nightwish cover! It was my favourite piece from that evening. In other news, Within Temptation are also very much worth reacting to!
Incredible!!!!🤟🤟🤟🤟
Yes, there is a fan in front of her. Probably helps keep her cool, but I believe it's to keep her mascara from running.
Floor has said that this song is one of the more challenging for her to sing.
Anette is the second singer (Tatiana is with Jinjer) . For her I would go with the music video for either 'Bye Bye Beautiful' or 'Amaranth'. (you've heard Floor sing Amaranth)
Next song with Floor, I would go with 'Song of Myself' from Wacken (Vah-ken)
And Yes, Within Temptation is another good band to check out. My favorite of theirs is 'Ice Queen'. Lead singer is Sharon Den Adel.
I think G meant to say Tarja. But that is okay because so far we have been feeding him mostly Floor's vocals. That's really our fault for not having him react to more of the previous vocalists as well.
Mate... Should it be time to react Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars live rehearsal at Sonic Pump Studios remastered? Truly EPIC performance! Please and peace 🙏🏼😎✌🏼
I agree! Epic!!
I have the same feeling with you about Floor's hair😍 and I guess we are not the only ones 😁
Deep Purple were the first rock band to have an orchestra on stage and Kiss were superb with an orchestra
They never done it but Epica , within temptation , Dimmu Borgir , and of course METALLICA done it before and it is amazing experience
