Did you look for it behind that chair/couch of yours? :D You can't go wrong with "Ever Dream". If you want to change a pace and hear more of Marko (internationally people like to call him Marco), take a look at "The Islander" in Tampere 2015.
I don't know if any one gave you some background info to help you navigate your Nightwish journey. I hope it helps: Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a female fronted symphonic metal band. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu. Then there is Troy Donockley who is a multi-instrulmentalist and does vocals. Jukka is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai became the drummer and as of now is a permanent member. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. the 2nd one was Anette Olzon (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from the Netherlands.( power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit live ( Floor). I hope this helps. I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. I discovered them about 4 years ago. They are unbelievable live. Their music has gotten me through some tough times. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol Stay safe.......
I'm honestly waiting for the bigger ones... THE POET AND THE PENDULUM and THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH by them... these ones were just the introduction to Nightwish....
@@PowerfulReactions They are some of the best... The Poet and the Pendulum for instance is about the first singer they had, Tarja Turunen. Tuomas, the composer and the mastermind of Nightwish and also the keyboardist said that the pain of Tarja leaving was so great he had to actually commit suicide in the song so that he wouldn't do it in real life... all Nightwish song have a story... it doesn't matter which song you pick... the impact will be different every time...
@@PowerfulReactions One of the most epic ones for sure (Greatest Show is like 20 minutes or so...Make it the Tampere live one). I'd maybe save them after a couple of more regular songs, if there is such a thing.
@@PowerfulReactions Ich würde die beiden "Lieder" eher als Stücke mit mehreren Akten bezeichnen. Spar sie dir ruhig noch auf und check bei beiden kurz vorab, worum es jeweils geht :) Ansonsten viel Spaß mit Nightwish, werden noch ein paar geile Stunden.
...was waiting for a B-side song at Wacken, yet there was none! So keep on reacting just to their wacken 2013 benchmark concert and nothing can go wrong.
She is flawless and she never, NEVER misses a note and if you what to hear the recording version you will find two different voices. That’s because Floor is the third Nightwish singer, so the three songs that you’ve heard so far are Floor’s version, and to be honest whatever Floor sings is amazing regardless if the song she is singing is her or not and it always sounds better than the original
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!! We hope you will continue to react to their songs. Yes Floor is tall; some say she's 6'1" some say 6'2". She weighs at least 200lbs and was a competitive bodybuilder in her youth(she's 39 now). Look at her shoulders arms and legs you'll see she still works out when she has the time. Floor is taller than everyone else in the band except maybe Marko the Bassist. This concert was her first big one with Nightwish. She had to learn all the songs in less than two days! The bandleader called her to stand in for Anette Olzon who was pregnant and she stayed. We thank her for that!! Floor is married to the drummer in the Metal group Sabaton. He's 6'7" himself. [BTW check out Beste Zangers, a gathering of Dutch singers who invited Floor to sing with them. The only one who knew who she was had worked with her before. She sang 'Phantom of the Opera' with Dutch Baritone Henk Poort who was the Dutch Phantom in his early career.]
Hmmm... Competitive bodybuilder... I'd like to see the sources of that statement... I NEVER read it anywhere. Yes, she works out a lot, but competitive bodybuilder, I would be very surprised ;-) And about sizes, Marko is a bit shorter than Floor but Tuomas is taller...
Man people love to exaggerate. First never heard anything about bodybuilding, especially not competitively. She's been singing in bands since she was 17. She's also .03 inches over 6' even, which for most people would just round down to her being 6'0" in America. She's 183cm tall. She's also not the tallest in the band, though she does tend to tower over people cause she frequently wears high heels.
Word of warning - they KILL it every time. You may want to hit a slower song next, there are two I highly recommend: Dead Boy’s Poem - Buenos Aires 2018 Sleeping Sun - Tampere 2015 Both are insanely beautiful, and Floor will destroy your brain.
THE POET AND THE PENDULUM .......and........ THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Really!! You need to hear these two! Thank you for all yours reactions of Nightwish , I'm a fan of them :P ENJOY1
"Does she ever miss a tone?" - no, and as a little challenge it's even hard to catch her taking a breath. Try it! It's like she has built in turbines... my guess is she's connected with that propeller to her feet somehow...
Well, you do have to keep in mind these are released DVD materials, they have been cleaned up and edited. Not that that means they covered up a lot of mistakes, but I'm sure they fixed a few here and there. She is human after all
It is so darn fun watching you lose you mind over this band. It happened to me just 7 months ago. It is an amazing ride getting to know this band. Buckle up!
Floor and Marko's duets (the bassist and second singer) are just awesome! Marko himself is a god of metal, I was just waiting for your reaction to her banshee scream and it did not disappointed
Well, she is doing the "windmill", a specific move in headbanging. ;), This is Marco, also an incredible singer. Well, Nightwish never stops to surprise.
All three of these songs were at Waken Open Air concert in 2013. The entire concert is mind blowing.....this, coming from a diehard Led Zeppelin fan who saw them live back in the '70s. When I stumbled onto this concert, I was shocked - I immediately bought the album (an absolute rarity for me). Here is the entire concert: ruclips.net/video/q9eKLPCciWw/видео.html Yes, there were two other singers before Floor. Both made their mark with Nightwish.....and both have their core followers....but Floor Jansen has raised Nightwish's audience awareness and following to an absolute international level. Not so much for reacting to (I suppose), but more for your own curiosity and enjoyment.....and to answer the burning question, "Who in the hell IS this woman?!"......check these links. To say "she can sing anything".....is an understatement.....you have to HEAR it to truly believe it.....which means you have to accept stepping outside of your musical comfort zone. ruclips.net/video/Od_qcbw3f5Q/видео.html ...... Floor on a Dutch TV show about the same time, singing a classic opera song (wait, what?!) to showcase a bit of her classical training. (It does have English subtitles if you set it thusly at lower right) This shit is going to make your head spin.....check it out......because it's well worth it! The backdrop here is that this show (done just last year) consists of several well known music artists, each of varying genres (none of which I would seek or follow); they do not all know one another, though some are more mainstream than others and well known in Dutch circles......Floor, for all intents and purposes, comes into this group as a virtual unknown (wait till you see the looks on their faces). During this show, each participant takes a turn in the "hot seat", sitting with the host, as each of the other participants sings a song of personal significance to the target participant. Here we go..... - ruclips.net/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/видео.html : Floor singing - in German - a childhood fairy-tale song to Henk Poort (absolutely well known Classical Opera singer), whose mother used to sing this to him as a child. Of course, Floor puts a light metal edge to it. - Next, Floor singing "Mama" (in her native tongue) to Dutch artist, Samantha Steenwijk, who wrote the song.....again, with a slight Floor edginess to Samantha's original version. ruclips.net/video/sj1ibZrjQTs/видео.html - Next up....Floor sings - in Spanish - one of Rolf Sanchez's songs to him. ruclips.net/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/видео.html - Singing a song to Ruben Annink that he wrote after his parents divorced. ruclips.net/video/ahykaAPHhs8/видео.html - "Shallow", by Lady Gaga, sung to Emma Heesters, a RUclips sensation who does covers......couldn't begin to say why this song, but she makes it her own like every other. Amazing. ruclips.net/video/M68pe4a_9zk/видео.html - Here, she sings a song Tim Akkerman wrote for and about his older brother who has suffered from polio since childhood and been confined to a wheelchair ever since. ruclips.net/video/ttfQqnskTO8/видео.html - The grand finale of the show. As a child, Floor was well aware of Henk Poort, had seen him in operas and had always admired him. To have an opportunity to actually do the Phantom Of The Opera with him was a dream come true.....and so, here they are.....with more than 7 million hits....they took the internet by storm. Suffice it to say, after this TV show and it's internet play, Floor is a household name, now. (As an aside, she AGAIN put her metal twist on the song....TO INCLUDE, coaching Henk to utilize the gravelly voice....an absolute no-no in classical music circles.) ruclips.net/video/plCScjvDOJM/видео.html Enjoy!
Yours is an empty hope will blow your Hat off again and shudder before the beautiful great songs. I genuinely had the same reactions as you I just discovered them four months ago and I'm 51.
This was your first taste of the combination of vocals - Floor's and Marco's, that's the bass guitar player with the epic beard. You will learn to love this combination in many other songs as well. Studio versions of their songs are usually not worth reacting to because they honestly sound better live, as any Nightwish fan will confirm for you. But feel free to find those studio versions in your own time and check them out if you're interested. By the way, none of the songs from this Wacken concert were written for Floor's voice, she joined the band about 10 months before Wacken and all the songs in this setlist are from albums made with the two previous singers of Nightwish.
To learn how Floor joined the band, watch the documentary "Please Learn the Setlist in 48 Hours". Explains a lot about how Wacken 2013 came about. And I concur about watching live whenever possible.
Great reaction! Love your enthusiasm for the band! Floor is an incredible singer but you will find that Marco, the blonde bearded bass player, is also an amazing singer. That picture of the boat behind you reminds me of opening scene in their video for The Islander, that features mostly Marco on vocals. Although the official video is cool you should listen and react to their live performance of it at either Wembley or Tampere!!
If you check out the studio version, it will in fact be Floorless. Tarja was the singer for NW back when this song was recorded in the studio. Nightwish is definitely not your average group.😂
I subscribed yesterday and, honey, I'm enjoying your journey so much. Welcome to the army. I love Nightwish but over all, I love Floor since 15 years ago. Way to go, regards from México
Great reaction! Never a boring structure in Nightwish songs. I saw you already have quite a list, certainly don't forget Song of myself and Yours is an empty hope.
Nice choice !!! LOVE it, and absolutely ADORE watching you and your "Chills". Fun ! Be Blessed from Gayle in Tennessee USA ❤️. Floor Jansen Rocks, baby!!! Jeezzus
They have no bad songs, only varying degrees of awesome - and live they all reach even greater heights - perhaps Ghost River or Bless the Child from this Wacken show next 🤘
As for quieter songs, Tampere has a few, most notably The Islander. Wembley also has While Your Lips are Still Red. Both feature the viking bassist Marco Hietala (The other vocalist in this song) as the singer with Floor doing backup vocals. Also Wacken has a live album that is quite good.
We don’t need to give you advice. Just everything Floor touches becomes unbelievable. Just in case you should miss it. Also check out her performances in the Dutch TV show “beste zangers” were she sings songs of other singers in her version. Really good. I believe there are about 5 or 6 on RUclips.
Marco, the bassist is a metal veteran in finnland. He has it's own band and does solo stuff too. He has an great voice too and can growl. Floor is the only singer who can keep up and works with him, in my opinion. There are plenty of songs where they sing together and it is always fantatic. They are coming to Germany end of the year. (Fingers crossed) so if you have the oportunity to see them live, do it. It s more than worth it. Saw them two years ago and will prohably go this year. btw. if you are searching for a great and fun metal band "beast in black" they were their opener on the last tour! So mutch fun! Stay safe and enjoy the ride!
This is biggest concert with Floor jansen..80,000. The poet and the pendulum, The Greatest Show On Earth live And Beste Zangers with Floor "Vilja", "The Phantom of the opera"
You have a really big journey ahead but the Nightwish army will come along with you. So much more to explore. You have no idea. Be prepared for sooooooo many Floorgasm. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
All the songs from this show were originally recorded with another singer. Floor has recorded two studio albums with them so far, one from 2015, and the one coming out next month.
I think you should react to the full concert... that's the only way you'll get to know a big part of Nightwish. However, The Poet and The Pendulum and The Greatest Show On Earth are two of the most amazing and intense Nightwish songs which were not played at that show. Great reactions!!!
Great reaction! Your enthusiasm is contagious. One of favorites is I Want My Tears Back, from Wacken or from Buenos Aires 2018. Floor goes nuts on the dance floor! I subbed! 💕🤟
The male singer in this song is Marko Hietala. He is also a very accomplished singer. A couple examples of him singing. Nightwish - The Islander (Live At Tampere) ruclips.net/video/Zo8ncK_5kzc/видео.html And Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red (Live at Wembley Arena) ruclips.net/video/5V7PKv493Ic/видео.html
Once you have done Song of myself, Ghost river and Everdream, maybe check out the 7 Days to the Wolves in Wembley 2015. And greetings from the Arctic circle, Finland.
@@PowerfulReactions if no one's going to request songs with Troy then I will. Troy joined the band the same time as Floor which is why you haven't seen him yet. He's a multi-instrumentalist and also a vocalist. Songs from Wacken where you can see him: I Want My Tears Back, Nemo. Songs where he sings: The Carpenter live at Buones Aires 2018, My Walden live at Tampere and Harvest the single from their new album Human :||: Nature.
Yes, she drops. You'll see it later with you journey. This performance here is epic. Floor is now ill, so let us hope for her a quick recovery! Thank you and be well!
You said you wanted to listen to the studio recordings. Keep in mind that Nightwish had two other singers before Floor. This doesn´t take away from the amazingness of the songs, but it will sound different vocally (obviously on the songs before Floor joined). Love your reactions! :)
"While your lips are still red" is a special song, they composed it for a movie in a period when they had already fired Tarja but didn't have a replacement yet. So, Marco sings it alone, and GOD he does an amazing job. Just go and watch it in any version, but the music video is made with clips from the movie, so it adds a new flavour :D
These "what is happening again?" moments, or surprises, as you call them, are Tuomas Holopainen's specialty, you'll find nice surprises like this in most of his music. As some fans have already said - you never know what to expect. And it is just one thing among many that make his music so amazing and standing out from anything else around. I'll just repeat myself here again - Tuomas is simply a musical genius unlike any other. In the best sense.
Nice reaction :) You still have yet to meet Troy, the multi-instrumentalist and sixth member of the band. I suggest Nemo or I Want My Tears Back (Wacken 2013 again). Or if you want to take a break from Nightwish (sorta), try Epica - Sancta Terra (Live, feature Floor Jansen)
A little funfact ... Did you know when floor came to nightwish ist was only a couple of weeks bevor wacken and the band says to her thats she has to learn the hole set list by heart in only 72 hour
@@PowerfulReactions naja, ist halt der aufwendigste und komplexeste Song von NW, aber definitiv einer der besten. Ich empfehle Dir aber auch erst mal 'The Poet and the Pendulum'. Auch sehr empfehlenswert sind die 'Beste Zangers' Videos, in denen Floor zeigen kann, was sie wirklich draufhat.
I suggest "Yours is an Empty Hope" at Wembley 2015 and "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" plus "I want my Tears Back", the latter two both from Buenos Aires 2018. In "Tears", Floor totally commands the audience and then goes a little verruckt dancing on stage. In heels. Truly a sight to behold.
Yes, the bass player, Marco, is also a great singer. He has a solo part on the song "Islander". You can find it under "Nightwish - The Islander (Live At Tampere)"
"Does she ever miss a tone?" In 20 years I've never heard her miss a note. Ever. Arguably, maybe with some older recordings of 10th man down, where she's still trying to find her footing but with Buenos Aires she knocked that one out of the park too.
"Does she ever miss a tone?" I've seen Floor with Nightwish 3 times and once at "Raskasta joulua", and based on those I can tell you she is VERY good. I can't recall really any major hicups. At worse she might be a few hertz or maybe 1/4 of a key off here and there just to remind us that she isn't a cyborg..
Pow pow pow! Multiple Floorgasms! 😊 And you, my friend, just became aware of the bassist of the band aka the Viking wizard aka the rock Gandalf aka the one and only Marko Hietala! He is out of this world talented musician! Plays, writes, sings incredibly! Enjoy!🙌
Great reactions like the two previous one. It feels honest reaction. Also in the last video yoj show to camera a list of Nightwish songs you will react to but is missing "The greatest show on Earth" live at Tampere.
There are no studio versions of the songs from Wacken with Floor. She joined Nightwish in -12. The first studio album with Floor was ’Endless Forms Most Besutiful’ in 2015. It has the 20 minute masterpiece ’Greatest Show On Earth’ on it, among others.
The Recordings will be different because Nightwish had different female vocalists. I liked all of them and after Tarja leaving Nightwish I never thought she could be replaced but I was wrong and now finally with Floor I hope it will last till the enbd!
"That" was Marco one of the band singer. and they have another one, Troy(you can her him in "Harvest', the song from a new albom, but leave it for later) have fun!
Powerful Reactions Harvest is very acoustic and folky - released a bit less than a month ago. It takes a few listens to really “get” it, I personally didn’t like it at first but now I love it. A song that I’ve seen mentioned way less than I expected is I Want My Tears Back. It’s one of my favourites, and you can hear Troy’s pipes and the guitars working together: it’s folky but still really heavy
If you wanna check out the previous singers, try Phantom of the opera live in Helsinki with their original singer Tarja Turunen. That video is also good for showing the enthusiasm of the fans when the band is performing in their home country. Tarja Turunen is a pure opera singer, and the band was originally a mix of metal and opera.
I heard Floor only 1 time off tone and I believe it was at the end of Ghost Love Score at Tempere. For the rest she is on top of it every time. Next 😁😜 Maybe Song of Myself from Wacken concert 🤗
Hunny I LOVE your reactions to NW!ok You're so cute!!! I say you watch every single song!!! I love your reactions as well as the band 😀😁😂😈😇😮😜😎👻👀💀🎉🎢🎢🎭🎶🎸🎤🍻🚣!!! BTW I don't know if anyone told you but there was 80,000 fans there.. \m/
The FLOORGASM blew my hat off.... Did anyone find it?:) Everdream is next ;)
Did you look for it behind that chair/couch of yours? :D You can't go wrong with "Ever Dream". If you want to change a pace and hear more of Marko (internationally people like to call him Marco), take a look at "The Islander" in Tampere 2015.

Well, she is doing the "windmill", a specific move in headbanging. ;), This is Marco, also an incredible singer. Well, Nightwish never stops to surprise.
Floor and Marko singing together are so good, I love it when they harmonize
I like the end of Shudder before the Beautiful's ending because of their singing.
Thank you for reacting to Nightwish. These vids has been entertaining. Looking forward to see more.

- ruclips.net/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/видео.html : Floor singing - in German - a childhood fairy-tale song to Henk Poort (absolutely well known Classical Opera singer), whose mother used to sing this to him as a child. Of course, Floor puts a light metal edge to it.
- Next, Floor singing "Mama" (in her native tongue) to Dutch artist, Samantha Steenwijk, who wrote the song.....again, with a slight Floor edginess to Samantha's original version.
ruclips.net/video/sj1ibZrjQTs/видео.html
- Next up....Floor sings - in Spanish - one of Rolf Sanchez's songs to him.
ruclips.net/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/видео.html
- Singing a song to Ruben Annink that he wrote after his parents divorced.
ruclips.net/video/ahykaAPHhs8/видео.html
- "Shallow", by Lady Gaga, sung to Emma Heesters, a RUclips sensation who does covers......couldn't begin to say why this song, but she makes it her own like every other. Amazing. ruclips.net/video/M68pe4a_9zk/видео.html
- Here, she sings a song Tim Akkerman wrote for and about his older brother who has suffered from polio since childhood and been confined to a wheelchair ever since.
ruclips.net/video/ttfQqnskTO8/видео.html
- The grand finale of the show.
As a child, Floor was well aware of Henk Poort, had seen him in operas and had always admired him.
To have an opportunity to actually do the Phantom Of The Opera with him was a dream come true.....and so, here they are.....with more than 7 million hits....they took the internet by storm. Suffice it to say, after this TV show and it's internet play, Floor is a household name, now.
(As an aside, she AGAIN put her metal twist on the song....TO INCLUDE, coaching Henk to utilize the gravelly voice....an absolute no-no in classical music circles.)

Enjoy!
Yours is an empty hope will blow your Hat off again and shudder before the beautiful great songs. I genuinely had the same reactions as you I just discovered them four months ago and I'm 51.
Hi William, thanks for your message. I am already in shock after only 4 songs hahah. Take care. 👌
This was your first taste of the combination of vocals - Floor's and Marco's, that's the bass guitar player with the epic beard. You will learn to love this combination in many other songs as well.
Studio versions of their songs are usually not worth reacting to because they honestly sound better live, as any Nightwish fan will confirm for you. But feel free to find those studio versions in your own time and check them out if you're interested. By the way, none of the songs from this Wacken concert were written for Floor's voice, she joined the band about 10 months before Wacken and all the songs in this setlist are from albums made with the two previous singers of Nightwish.
If you sound better live, then you have done everything correctly as a Band. 😁💪👌Thanks
To learn how Floor joined the band, watch the documentary "Please Learn the Setlist in 48 Hours". Explains a lot about how Wacken 2013 came about. And I concur about watching live whenever possible.
Goosebumps everytime man.. gosh, both of them is absolutely stunning🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻insane....
Your reactions remind me of when I discovered Nightwish! Excellent work Sir 🤘
Thanks a lot Andrew. They are on a different level. 😉👍
Great reaction! Love your enthusiasm for the band! Floor is an incredible singer but you will find that Marco, the blonde bearded bass player, is also an amazing singer. That picture of the boat behind you reminds me of opening scene in their video for The Islander, that features mostly Marco on vocals. Although the official video is cool you should listen and react to their live performance of it at either Wembley or Tampere!!
If you check out the studio version, it will in fact be Floorless. Tarja was the singer for NW back when this song was recorded in the studio. Nightwish is definitely not your average group.😂
That description of the Nightwish song pattern is so on point. XD
Hahaha thanks
I subscribed yesterday and, honey, I'm enjoying your journey so much.
Welcome to the army. I love Nightwish but over all, I love Floor since 15 years ago.
Way to go, regards from México
Muchísimas gracias Ana, me alegró que te haya gustado. Si, esa banda es increíble. Me encantan. Muchos Saludos. 👍
Great reaction! Never a boring structure in Nightwish songs. I saw you already have quite a list, certainly don't forget Song of myself and Yours is an empty hope.
“Ever Dream” “Poet and the Pendulum”
“Song of Myself”
“Shudder Before the Beautiful”
Nice choice !!! LOVE it, and absolutely ADORE watching you and your "Chills". Fun ! Be Blessed from Gayle in Tennessee USA ❤️. Floor Jansen Rocks, baby!!! Jeezzus
Hi Gayle, wow Tennessee in da House. Awesome 👌😎😎😎Thanks Gayle. Take care
@@PowerfulReactions Thank you for taking the time to send me a word, ALL the way to little 'ol Tennessee, y'all !!! LOL ! Having fun watching you !!
Love when They singing together.
I love Nightwish since I heard Phantom of The opera (with Tarja).
Marko (the bass player) is a great singer in his own right. Look up 'The Islander' from the Tampere concert.
They have no bad songs, only varying degrees of awesome - and live they all reach even greater heights - perhaps Ghost River or Bless the Child from this Wacken show next 🤘
As for quieter songs, Tampere has a few, most notably The Islander. Wembley also has While Your Lips are Still Red. Both feature the viking bassist Marco Hietala (The other vocalist in this song) as the singer with Floor doing backup vocals. Also Wacken has a live album that is quite good.
I only say one thing..... THE POET AND THE PENDULUM!!!
Floor’s windmills is how hurricanes are created!
We don’t need to give you advice. Just everything Floor touches becomes unbelievable. Just in case you should miss it. Also check out her performances in the Dutch TV show “beste zangers” were she sings songs of other singers in her version. Really good. I believe there are about 5 or 6 on RUclips.
Marco, the bassist is a metal veteran in finnland. He has it's own band and does solo stuff too. He has an great voice too and can growl. Floor is the only singer who can keep up and works with him, in my opinion. There are plenty of songs where they sing together and it is always fantatic. They are coming to Germany end of the year. (Fingers crossed) so if you have the oportunity to see them live, do it. It s more than worth it. Saw them two years ago and will prohably go this year. btw. if you are searching for a great and fun metal band "beast in black" they were their opener on the last tour! So mutch fun! Stay safe and enjoy the ride!
Nice. You know the cities they are going to visit in Germany? I have to go. 👌👌👌Thanks for the band as well.
@@PowerfulReactions www.eventim.de/artist/nightwish/
Absolutly worth it. I'll be in Düsseldorf btw.
This is biggest concert with Floor jansen..80,000. The poet and the pendulum, The Greatest Show On Earth live
And Beste Zangers with Floor "Vilja", "The Phantom of the opera"
it is so funny seeing someone knowing floor in 2020. I saw her live with After forever in 2007
Cool
"Ghost River" from the same concert please
Yes Bridget, it's definitely coming soon. (they have soooo many aings though 😂😂😂)
@@PowerfulReactions achte bei Ghost River auf die growls. Die werden von einigen Reactions überhört. Floor is der hammer
You have a really big journey ahead but the Nightwish army will come along with you. So much more to explore. You have no idea. Be prepared for sooooooo many Floorgasm. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
🤘🤘❤️🤘🤘 Oh yeah!!!! 😁🤘🤘
All the songs from this show were originally recorded with another singer. Floor has recorded two studio albums with them so far, one from 2015, and the one coming out next month.
Song of Myself, Ghost River from the same concert🤟✌️
I think you should react to the full concert... that's the only way you'll get to know a big part of Nightwish. However, The Poet and The Pendulum and The Greatest Show On Earth are two of the most amazing and intense Nightwish songs which were not played at that show.
Great reactions!!!
Great reaction! Your enthusiasm is contagious. One of favorites is I Want My Tears Back, from Wacken or from Buenos Aires 2018. Floor goes nuts on the dance floor! I subbed! 💕🤟
The male singer in this song is Marko Hietala. He is also a very accomplished singer.
A couple examples of him singing.
Nightwish - The Islander (Live At Tampere)

And
Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red (Live at Wembley Arena)
ruclips.net/video/5V7PKv493Ic/видео.html
Nice reaction. BTW: Marco, the bass player first started singing with Floor at the 3:33 mark, but you didn't notice until the 6:14 mark.
Yes Mark , i realized it afterwards hahaha
At this moment we have only one studio album with Floor on vocals. Endless forms most beautiful. But 2nd one is coming out soon.
Once you have done Song of myself, Ghost river and Everdream, maybe check out the 7 Days to the Wolves in Wembley 2015. And greetings from the Arctic circle, Finland.
Definitely. Thanks buddy, greeting back. 👌👌👌
@@PowerfulReactions if no one's going to request songs with Troy then I will. Troy joined the band the same time as Floor which is why you haven't seen him yet. He's a multi-instrumentalist and also a vocalist. Songs from Wacken where you can see him: I Want My Tears Back, Nemo. Songs where he sings: The Carpenter live at Buones Aires 2018, My Walden live at Tampere and Harvest the single from their new album Human :||: Nature.
@@alexdoorn234 thanks Luna, I heard the new record is coming out soon?
@@PowerfulReactions yep that's correct. It comes out on the 10th of April. Noise and Harvest are already released as singles.
Guhkes G Greetings fellow Laplander 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Now you are ready to watch her appearance on the show Beste Zangers 2019
, and also her part on Sancta Terra with Epica.
Yes, she drops. You'll see it later with you journey. This performance here is epic. Floor is now ill, so let us hope for her a quick recovery! Thank you and be well!
Thanks, you too Pekka
Powerful Reactions ⛄
Marco the bass player is also a phenomenal singer. Check out "ghost river"
If you like the heavier notes, I would recommend "Shudder Before The Beautiful" live from Wembley
Mind you, this concert was before their first album with Floor. As such the studio versions for all the songs in this show have a different singer.
You said you wanted to listen to the studio recordings. Keep in mind that Nightwish had two other singers before Floor. This doesn´t take away from the amazingness of the songs, but it will sound different vocally (obviously on the songs before Floor joined). Love your reactions! :)
Thanks Mira 😁👌👍
Wow!!!! Thanks!
"While your lips are still red" is a special song, they composed it for a movie in a period when they had already fired Tarja but didn't have a replacement yet.
So, Marco sings it alone, and GOD he does an amazing job.
Just go and watch it in any version, but the music video is made with clips from the movie, so it adds a new flavour :D
Sounds good, thanks for the Idea. Gracias Maria 👌
Cant wait to hear Song of Myself from this show.i dare you NOT to headbang.lol
😂🤘
These "what is happening again?" moments, or surprises, as you call them, are Tuomas Holopainen's specialty, you'll find nice surprises like this in most of his music. As some fans have already said - you never know what to expect. And it is just one thing among many that make his music so amazing and standing out from anything else around. I'll just repeat myself here again - Tuomas is simply a musical genius unlike any other. In the best sense.
Nice reaction :) You still have yet to meet Troy, the multi-instrumentalist and sixth member of the band. I suggest Nemo or I Want My Tears Back (Wacken 2013 again).
Or if you want to take a break from Nightwish (sorta), try Epica - Sancta Terra (Live, feature Floor Jansen)
A little funfact ... Did you know when floor came to nightwish ist was only a couple of weeks bevor wacken and the band says to her thats she has to learn the hole set list by heart in only 72 hour
Halfway in already you had two Floorgasms! Damn boy, you got stamina! lol ;)
Haha of course 😁
Time for 'The greatest Show on Earth' by Nightwish !!! The title says everything !!!
Are you sure, a lot of you guys are saying that I should wait with that song? 🤔
@@PowerfulReactions naja, ist halt der aufwendigste und komplexeste Song von NW, aber definitiv einer der besten. Ich empfehle Dir aber auch erst mal 'The Poet and the Pendulum'. Auch sehr empfehlenswert sind die 'Beste Zangers' Videos, in denen Floor zeigen kann, was sie wirklich draufhat.
@@Kilian600 klingt gut, Andreas 😁👌
Cant wait to see your reaction when you first time see her GROWLING!....check out the old live videos from ReVamp and After Forever!
I suggest "Yours is an Empty Hope" at Wembley 2015 and "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" plus "I want my Tears Back", the latter two both from Buenos Aires 2018. In "Tears", Floor totally commands the audience and then goes a little verruckt dancing on stage. In heels. Truly a sight to behold.
.... A little verruckt.... You are the best hahah. I'll make sure to get to those asap. Thanks Alan.
Love the Floor-raid siren about 7:04- 7:14 !!!
One of my favorites, besides all of them, from Wacken 2013 'Song of Myself', 'She is my Sin', 'Last of the Wilds' to introduce you to Troy.
That's the next one coming I think 😉😉👌👌
@@PowerfulReactions They really shine most as a Live band, almost every live show is a masterwork
Yes, the bass player, Marco, is also a great singer. He has a solo part on the song "Islander". You can find it under "Nightwish - The Islander (Live At Tampere)"
Great reactions, maybe Song of myself from Wacken or Weak Fantasy from Tampere :)
Thanks, yes Song of myself ist coming soon. Thanks buddy
"Does she ever miss a tone?" In 20 years I've never heard her miss a note. Ever. Arguably, maybe with some older recordings of 10th man down, where she's still trying to find her footing but with Buenos Aires she knocked that one out of the park too.
She is amazing, 😁👌👌👌
"Does she ever miss a tone?" I've seen Floor with Nightwish 3 times and once at "Raskasta joulua", and based on those I can tell you she is VERY good. I can't recall really any major hicups. At worse she might be a few hertz or maybe 1/4 of a key off here and there just to remind us that she isn't a cyborg..
Great reaction! Thank you.
Pow pow pow! Multiple Floorgasms! 😊
And you, my friend, just became aware of the bassist of the band aka the Viking wizard aka the rock Gandalf aka the one and only Marko Hietala! He is out of this world talented musician! Plays, writes, sings incredibly! Enjoy!🙌
Thanks 😎😎👌
I think I heard her go flat on one note, GLS Buenos Aires 2012. She was sick during that show, so if it was ever going to happen, that would be it.
Great reactions like the two previous one. It feels honest reaction. Also in the last video yoj show to camera a list of Nightwish songs you will react to but is missing "The greatest show on Earth" live at Tampere.
I added it 😎👌👌
There are no studio versions of the songs from Wacken with Floor. She joined Nightwish in -12. The first studio album with Floor was ’Endless Forms Most Besutiful’ in 2015. It has the 20 minute masterpiece ’Greatest Show On Earth’ on it, among others.
Man if this is reaction to every song, I can’t wait to see him react to TGSOE! He’s gonna lose his mind
That song is on my list 😎😎👌
I think his brain will explode
Find live Wembly with subtitles
Never misses. No one does.
Ok, now you are prepared to see her growling, "Your's an Empty Hope" live 2015
Yes, definitely Wembley (2015).
The Recordings will be different because Nightwish had different female vocalists. I liked all of them and after Tarja leaving Nightwish I never thought she could be replaced but I was wrong and now finally with Floor I hope it will last till the enbd!
NIGHTWISH - Ghost Love Score (OFFICIAL LIVE) PLEASE! THE BEST PERFOMANCE!
I’m going to see them in Amsterdam in November after listening to them for like 14 years and I’m sooo excited! Also damn, you’re cute haha
All songs in this concert are originally "Floorless". Originally sang by Tarja or Anette.
"That" was Marco one of the band singer. and they have another one, Troy(you can her him in "Harvest', the song from a new albom, but leave it for later) have fun!
Thanks Alexsey, I can't wait to hear it. 😎
Powerful Reactions Harvest is very acoustic and folky - released a bit less than a month ago. It takes a few listens to really “get” it, I personally didn’t like it at first but now I love it. A song that I’ve seen mentioned way less than I expected is I Want My Tears Back. It’s one of my favourites, and you can hear Troy’s pipes and the guitars working together: it’s folky but still really heavy
If you wanna check out the previous singers, try Phantom of the opera live in Helsinki with their original singer Tarja Turunen. That video is also good for showing the enthusiasm of the fans when the band is performing in their home country. Tarja Turunen is a pure opera singer, and the band was originally a mix of metal and opera.
Stargazers live from Tampere 😉
Jukka beating those drums like they owe him money. As excellent as Kai is, Jukka's energy is unquestionable.
Watch "The Greatest Show on Earth" live from Tampere - it will totaly blow you away!
I heard Floor only 1 time off tone and I believe it was at the end of Ghost Love Score at Tempere. For the rest she is on top of it every time.
Next 😁😜
Maybe Song of Myself from Wacken concert 🤗
She is amazing. Yes, it's one of the next ones. 👌😁💪
great reaction. new subscriber Greetings from Chile
Gracias José
she barely misses a ton , she's a voice teacher !
Hunny I LOVE your reactions to NW!ok You're so cute!!! I say you watch every single song!!! I love your reactions as well as the band 😀😁😂😈😇😮😜😎👻👀💀🎉🎢🎢🎭🎶🎸🎤🍻🚣!!! BTW I don't know if anyone told you but there was 80,000 fans there.. \m/
Thank you very much, I appreciate your kind words. 😊I'll make sure to listen to every song. 😉😎
