"I like this song more than the last one" That's gonna happen every time with this band😂 And if you come back to the first song you will love it And every song has it's unique style and beauty
Thank you for your beautiful shout-out, but especially for deciding to continue exploring Nightwish music! Of course, you have a new subscriber here, and I'm sure I'll be seeing you often in the next few months at least :) I'm looking forward to your next reactions! 🤘
Thank you so much for providing us the essentials to dive into with this wonderful band!! .. It really does feel like we are on an adventure that changes with every turn! We are forever grateful to all of you guys for turning us on to them! 🍺🍺
always love your input. thanks from ColGreatest show since the lyric we were hereorado. just lost my sister, tried to get her her into a little NW like
Completely agree...one of my favourites! Good to follow the usual playlist but it's hard being patient for reactors to get the other gems. I would include Weak Fantasy and Shudder Before the Beautiful to that list as well 😊
@@TJandTheGringa on the "heavier" side of NW : Song of MySelf: Wacken 2013 Ghost River,EverDream : Wacken 2013 Their heaviest song ,never played live, it was a response to their 1st singers manager/husband so it's a bit on the angry side : Nightwish - Master Passion Greed (Special Video) or Lyric version : PNjACI Nightwish - 10th Man Down - Live In Buenos Aires 2018 - Decades Tour NIGHTWISH - Slaying The Dreamer - Live In Buenos Aires (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO Here's a "gem" not to be missed : Nightwish - Sahara (Live In Tampa) 2016
Apple juice!? Don't tell Emppu!..ha ha! Floor swapped apple juice for Emppu's Corona beer (he hates apple juice) in revenge for a prank he pulled on her! (probably with Troy's collusion!) Naughty little brother!.... but yes - SO good on guitar (and judo - black belt!) "Hey, Emmpu - how many styles can you play?" Emppu "Yes!"..... and - Paiste cymbals "We survived Jukka Nevalainen -Wacken 2013!" top reaction people! Kiitos!
She definitely has a LOT of people under her spell, but when you get to learn more about her, you realise it's not magic. She's just an insanely talented, but also humble, genuinely *nice* person too.
For amazing guitar work, check out their tribute to Pink Floyd's High Hopes featuring bassist Marco on lead vocals..two solos and Marco's vocals are next level. He also sings and plays guitar on the mellower The Islander
They play for the song, not for their egos. Ghost Love Score doesn’t need a ripping guitar solo. It doesn’t compliment the song, but in Romanticed it’s perfect.
Following Gabriel’s list is the recommended way to reactions, but let me throw a spanner in the works. Dead boy’s poem from their 2018 Buenos Aires concert. Great reaction. Thank you. Greetings from Greece.
You both looked so happy! So glad I subscribed! La gringa: your point about enjoying this as a woman is well taken, which is why a typical Nightwish concert has a very diverse audience. I have been to over a dozen of them in six countries on three continents, so I know.
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment. We really appreciate you and thanks even more for subscribing!! We promise a lot more Nightwish that's for sure because we want to hear it all!
Do you want "to know a "secret" ? After any show Floor Jansen drink,s a Whisky and smoke a big Sigar with the Boys. She is a 6,1f Dutch Bad Ass Valkery Goddess !! Greetz from The Netherlands......
First of all, Great reaction! 👏 Second..My favourite Nightwish song is Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean (with Floor and Marko singing). Would be fun to see your reaction to it 😃😎💯
@@TJandTheGringa No worries, you seem like really fun and friendly guys and i'm just happy to see your reactions to Nightwish and everyone have their own taste when it comes to music but it makes me happy to see you enjoy music i myself also enjoy 😁 For fun, here's my top 22 list of Nightwish songs (They've had 2 previous female singers of you didn't know and in that case get confused when you read the name Tarja in some songs): My Nightwish top songs: 1. Devil and the deep dark ocean (Marko and Floor singing) 2. Sleeping Sun (Tarja singing) 3. Dark chest of wonders (Tarja and Floor equally amazing singing) 4. Everdream (Marko and Floor singing) 5. Last Ride of the day (Marko and Floor singing) 6. Wishmaster (Tarja singing) 7. High hopes (Marko singing, Pink Floyd tribute 8. Nemo (Tarja singing) 9. The poet and the pendulum (Marko and Floor singing) 10. Wish i had an angel (Marko and Tarja singing) 11. Romanticide (Marko and Floor singing) 12. The greatest show on earth (Marko and Floor singing) 13. Dead boys poem (Floor singing) 14. Ghost love score (Floor singing) 15. While your lips are still red (Marko singing) 16. Shoemaker (Floor singing) 17. Yours is an empty hope (Marko and Floor singing) 18. Phantom of the opera (Marko and Tarja singing) 19.Ghost River (Marko and Floor singing) 20. The Siren (Tarja and Marko singing) 21. Storytime (Floor singing) 22. Master Passion Greed (Marko singing)
The “banshee glissando from Hell”, and the pure headbanger joy it elicits every time…that just never gets old!!! What fun guys! Keep going, we’re here for it.
Tequila Jimmy, you said you liked this song better than the first one (GLS), or perhaps you just meant the guitar solo(?), but the thing with NIghtwish tends to be that you'll always love the next song better than the previous one till you love them all and you can't pick your absolute favorite because they all touch your heart strings in a different way and leave you in awe and longing for more!
You are 💯 percent right on that! This one still remains one of my faves but Ghost River is now one im playing constantly...so like you said ...the nect one always hits you in a way wjere you like it more than the previous... Thank you so much for watching! 🤘
@@TJandTheGringa Ghost River is one of my favorites too, as well as I Want My Tears Back, but you really can't go wrong on anything from the Wacken 2013 concert. Unless my memory fails me, it was the first concert in Europe only some 10 months after Floor had replaced Anette who fell seriously ill on the night of the band's Denver gig. Both Floor and Troy were announced official members of Nightwish around the time of the Wacken gig. You might find the documentary Please Learn the Setlist in 48 Hours interesting
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 Great Job again And yes, I'm coming up with a lot more for you, hold on tight, it's so great!!!When you hear another song you keep saying this one is better No, this one is better 😁
This is why I think the first part of Gabriel's list is useful - each of the songs introduces you to more aspects of Nightwish. _GLS_ is very Floor-focused with Jukka a distant second, Emppu third, and the others barely seen; _Romanticide_ highlights Emppu, Marko, and Jukka more, and shows off a different musical style too. Plus you get a bit of Tuomas headbanging!
Emppu is a phenomenal guitarist, and his playing always serves the song - and here he gets to showcase some shredding and give us a taste of his technical skills
Your joy and appreciation for this awesome band is so much fun to watch. You really “get” them🤘🤘 The juxtaposition of her insane range and presence and this bands hard hitting insane talent is incredible Absolutely kickass. Jukka in Beast Mode on the drum kit…Everyone performing at the very highest level….as usual🤘 Subscribed so I can follow you on the journey that we have all been on and continue to be on🤘
6:27 I think it will be funny if you say the song is better than the first. there are still some surprises to come the North German Division of the Nightwish Army reports !! We are there.salute General @gabriel_bardac.
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 . AND,...Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bull whip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Nightwish lyrics are often a bit interpretive, and not as "straight forward" as many other bands, because Tuomas ( The Metal Mozart Tuomas Holopainen: founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish.) prefers people to put their own interpretations and life experiences into the lyrics. you connect with songs on a personal level when there is something there that relates to things you have gone/are going through, and you may even find new connections later on in life when you have gone through other big events/emotions. there might be songs you are quite indifferent about (oh, nice song) and then you go through something big and all of a sudden it makes you break down in tears because now you relate to something in the lyrics you didn't before, and see it from a whole new perspective. imagination and life experiences are powerful, and Tuomas has great appreciation of this. Take Gabriel's list as a guide to your journey. We are on Standby mode for now .... NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.
Gabriel's list is fantastic but not exhaustive, you should check out everything from Wacken, from Tampere, from Wembley, from Buenos Aires and from Hellfest - and them from 2005 End of an Era - it's all fantastic 🤘
You are not the only one wondering who she is, The reactor Ken Lavigne commenting on "The Greatest Show On Earth": “Is she a sorceress, is she a Siren, is she a warrior princess, is she all three”
This is a real BANGER !! Thanks for continuing.....Looking out for the next one...should be Storytime from Wacken 2013 next 🙂 If you think this shows what they can do you are in for a big surprise 🙂 You heard about the "tip of the Iceberg Phrase" ?! And yes....she is weaving in some magic here.... All Hail Queen Floor !
There is a common saying that your favourite Nightwish song is the one you are currently listening to. I look forward to watching the both of you progress through their catalogue of awesome music. Keep up the good work and great reactions. Greeting from the NW Army 🇦🇺🤘
Excellent reaction again! This just shows that Nightwish is not just about Floor. The rest of the guys are equally amazing. In Tuomas (the keyboard player) they have an amazing songwriter, he’s not called the metal Mozart for nothing!
Just to clarify Floor is not a witch she is the Valkyrie Queen! The goddess and chooser of the noble dead. In reality she graduated from the Dutch Rock Academy and studied opera and musical theatre for three years. Your next Nightwish should be “Storytime” but checking out Floor’s previous work would be enlightening. I recommend the band ReVamp song “disdain” at grasspop festival.
Another great reaction! The harder stuff is great. The entire Wacken concert from 2013 is legendary. Without a doubt the best performance I've ever seen/heard.
Great reaction 🤘 You should really go for the show opener “dark chest of wonders”. It’s one of my favourites and I think you would like it too. But this concert has no bad songs.
Great reaction, I love your enthusiasm; I have subscribed to your channel. Yes, Floor not only has a fantastic highly versatile voice but also a stunning stage presence. She owns every stage she enters at once and commands the crowd like a real warrior goddess. If you like it harder watch "Yours is an empty hope" from Wembley 2015 (yes, it is Floor growling there). Or "Disdain" with Floors former band ReVamp Graspop 2010. Or very hard - Nightwish without Floor, Marko on lead - Master Passion Greed. For this there is only the album version available, they never played it in a concert. And you should know the band's history before listening to it (it has been written after the change from Tarja to Anette). By the way, every member of Nightwish is an outstanding artist who just plays for the song instead of showing off, no egos on stage, just good friends who love what they are doing - and each other.
Every single member of this band is so incredibly talented. The guitarist, Emppu, is one of the best, but he plays for the song, not to show off. Marko, the bassist, has an incredible voice that you will hear more of later, plus I get a kick out of the way he sings and plays that bass at the same time. When he and Floor duet, it is just about perfection. Jukka, on the drums, leading that tempo, and, behind them all the rock, and the master musician and composer, Tuomas on keyboards.
Friend of heavier stuff, you just gotta do Yours is an Empty hope Devil and the deep dark ocean And some others (I'm sure the army will continue the list) I'm also a friend of some heavier stuff, but NW is just too good to miss - even though originally I didn't even rate it heavy music (as a Finn I've heard it since 90s, but it was Floor who got me hooked into it ❤ - and now I'm obsessed)
Hi Guys, greetings from UK This was another great reaction, thank you 😉 3:43 The Gringa: "Damn, that was powerful" Floor: "Here, hold my beer" 😁 That was just a little Floorplay........the full on Floorgasm is yet to erupt! 🤣 With beautiful long hair like that, I think you definitely need to try windmilling 😁 The heavier songs from this concert were: Dark Chest Of Wonders (the show opener), Song Of Myself, Ghost River and Romanticide The guys did a cover of Pink Floyd's song "High Hopes" (long before Floor joined the band) as a tribute. Emppu played two great guitar solos in that song. Maybe a double track reaction? The original followed by Nightwish's tribute?
Haha and so much to come from this band. Epica would be right up your alley too - here is one where Floor joins them on stage with another Dutch singer... wait there's more than one of them? haha Epica Santa Terra. Yes Epica fans will say it's not their best song, but it is a good intro to the band. ruclips.net/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/видео.html
Nightwish's catalogue is wonderful. Continue down Gen. Gabrial's path. Since you like the heavier side, you need to listen to another symphonic metal band, Epica. NW and Epica are 1 and 1a when it comes to the genre. Epica is heavier than Nightwish with a singer of the same caliber as Floor, Simone Simons. A great song to start with is Design Your Universe. I would listen to the version from the 10th anniversary, 2013 Retrospect concert.
Yes, thank you for my Nightwish feed! 🪖NW Army Canada 🪖loves your reaction! 🪖General Gabriel will lead you on your journey and I will tag along for the "Floorgasms"! This is 1 of many "heavy" songs but there are so many flavors and another member you have not seen yet! Tequila you look like a crowd member you rock so hard! Love it!
With Nightwish there is only one rule, the next song is always better. The next song after this, two songs left on the set, Song Of Myself will blow your mind. :)
"I like this song more than the last one"
That's gonna happen every time with this band😂
And if you come back to the first song you will love it
And every song has it's unique style and beauty

If there is 1 song to showcase their abilities, it's Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires concert in 2018.

She owns every stage she enters at once and commands the crowd like a real warrior goddess. If you like it harder watch "Yours is an empty hope" from Wembley 2015 (yes, it is Floor growling there). Or "Disdain" with Floors former band ReVamp Graspop 2010. Or very hard - Nightwish without Floor, Marko on lead - Master Passion Greed. For this there is only the album version available, they never played it in a concert. And you should know the band's history before listening to it (it has been written after the change from Tarja to Anette). By the way, every member of Nightwish is an outstanding artist who just plays for the song instead of showing off, no egos on stage, just good friends who love what they are doing - and each other.
Every single member of this band is so incredibly talented. The guitarist, Emppu, is one of the best, but he plays for the song, not to show off. Marko, the bassist, has an incredible voice that you will hear more of later, plus I get a kick out of the way he sings and plays that bass at the same time. When he and Floor duet, it is just about perfection. Jukka, on the drums, leading that tempo, and, behind them all the rock, and the master musician and composer, Tuomas on keyboards.

Thank you!! Cheers!
Oh "Song of myself" next... no no... "Ghostriver" next no no "Poet and the Pendulum" no wait "Dark chestof wonder" .... ROLF
What a great reaction! Storytime next, pls. Enjoy the journey!
Great reaction guys👌💯
For some badass growls done by beautiful Floor you should check out Yours Is An Empty Hope live in Wembley 2015🤩
jimmy a must Epica consign to oblivion live at the zenith paris heavy is what ya get
Fuck yes!! Noted 🤘🍻
yeah Nightwish Magic, welcome in the rabbit hole....greets from the Netherlands
you are witnessing the best musicians on the planet
Friend of heavier stuff, you just gotta do
Yours is an Empty hope
Devil and the deep dark ocean
And some others (I'm sure the army will continue the list)
I'm also a friend of some heavier stuff, but NW is just too good to miss - even though originally I didn't even rate it heavy music (as a Finn I've heard it since 90s, but it was Floor who got me hooked into it ❤ - and now I'm obsessed)
Floor IS like the golden aura around the song. I don't think I've ever heard a more apt description of GLS 😊
Hi Guys, greetings from UK
This was another great reaction, thank you 😉
3:43
The Gringa: "Damn, that was powerful"
Floor: "Here, hold my beer" 😁
That was just a little Floorplay........the full on Floorgasm is yet to erupt! 🤣
With beautiful long hair like that, I think you definitely need to try windmilling 😁
The heavier songs from this concert were: Dark Chest Of Wonders (the show opener), Song Of Myself, Ghost River and Romanticide
The guys did a cover of Pink Floyd's song "High Hopes" (long before Floor joined the band) as a tribute. Emppu played two great guitar solos in that song. Maybe a double track reaction? The original followed by Nightwish's tribute?
Haha and so much to come from this band. Epica would be right up your alley too - here is one where Floor joins them on stage with another Dutch singer... wait there's more than one of them? haha
Epica Santa Terra. Yes Epica fans will say it's not their best song, but it is a good intro to the band.

""Poet and the pendulum""next please
A haunting song is the Ann Waychoff version of "Song of myself".
Nightwish's catalogue is wonderful. Continue down Gen. Gabrial's path. Since you like the heavier side, you need to listen to another symphonic metal band, Epica. NW and Epica are 1 and 1a when it comes to the genre. Epica is heavier than Nightwish with a singer of the same caliber as Floor, Simone Simons. A great song to start with is Design Your Universe. I would listen to the version from the 10th anniversary, 2013 Retrospect concert.
You should try High Hopes and Over the Hills and Far Away.
🤘😎👍
Yes, thank you for my Nightwish feed! 🪖NW Army Canada 🪖loves your reaction! 🪖General Gabriel will lead you on your journey and I will tag along for the "Floorgasms"! This is 1 of many "heavy" songs but there are so many flavors and another member you have not seen yet! Tequila you look like a crowd member you rock so hard! Love it!
If you like heavier stuff, check out Tribal or Song of Myself!
...you must to listen The poet and the pendulum...it's a masterpiece...
🤘😁🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯👍
Nightwish playlist, would you do 💙🇫🇮
With Nightwish there is only one rule, the next song is always better. The next song after this, two songs left on the set, Song Of Myself will blow your mind. :)
🤩👍💥💯 🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Floor the Dutch air raid siren
And then.. after that 10th song... Gost LOVE Score as if nothing
If you like the heavier stuff my recommendation is to check out yours is an empty hope and Devil and the deep dark ocean. Both are 🔥
Emppu can shredd like hell if it´s needed
That solo was impressive 🎸
