Floor is an absolute vocal athlete. How the hell is she able to sustain such insane vocal belts, growls, clean, distorted, operatic, etc for this whole concert? If singing was an Olympic event she would have more Gold medals than Michael Phelps.
Arizona chapter of the Nightwish Army reporting in. I fully understand how you have fallen in love with our Queen; Floor IS a once in a lifetime talent and never, and I mean NEVER, disappoints. Keep up your journey into Nightwish and Floor, I promise you will not regret it.
The entire universe has a crush on Floor. It's her world and we're just living in it. It just says everything about her that almost every single person reacting to Nightwish immediately starts calling her a goddess. :D And yes, NW's sound engineers are the best of the best. This show is honestly among the most legendary live recordings ever, everything is just perfect.
RIP Ann Waychoff, den mother and first Queen of the Nightwish nation. Every time I hear this song I think of you, it is a beautiful song and you are dearly missed.
Welcome to "Falling in love with Nightwish and with Floor Jansen 101" 🤘 Thank you for sharing your journey with us on that particular train! This show was indeed mixed beyond perfectly, but I'd also highly recommend checking out performances from their shows at Wembley, Tampere or Buenos Aires. There is quite literally not a bad Nightwish performance or song, so you can never pick wrong :) Have a great weekend! (and I'm off to check your Buffy reactions, because hell yes)
Marco "Bassist" has an excellent voice.. If they need raspy, he gives them that, if they need harsh vocals he does that too. But, if they need smooth clean harmonies to follow along with Floor, he can do that too..
SoFie, that was the traditional "Oh, He Can Sing, Too" reaction face at 2:35. Classic. You ain't heard nothin' yet. Marko will suprise you time and time again.
15 songs in the set at Wacken 2013. Every song is better than the last one...no matter how you choose them to react to. I found Nightwish 6 months ago and have listened to this concert at least 50 times, and as many reactions as I can find. Still get chills, goosebumps, and tears. Before you react to Poet and the Pendulum(not in this concert), you MUST do some research. It is an emotional composition and requires some understanding. Tuomas' words, sung by Floor in a most empathic and expressive way. But YES...do this concert one song at a time. It will help you get to know the band. This concert is a big part of the adventure, but it is just the tip of the iceberg! Welcome to the ARMY!!
you know it's about to get real when the drummer stands up! Floor's stage presence and windmills are equally as legendary as her singing. her and Marco singing together is just indescribable. i often wonder if there was a moment during rehearsals and sound checks when they looked at each other and thought, damn we sound Awesome! Wacken Open Air is well known for the quality of the recording you get when performing there.
Just to throw it out there, that "little" goddess is 6ft tall lol. Great reaction! Nightwish brought me and earned a sub, then I HAD to become a patron for Buffy! Loving the content! Please do more Nightwish! As someone who only discovered them in the last year and hardly listens to anything else at the moment, I can tell you that they only get better the more you listen.
You earned my thump without any doubt. What a great comment. Nightwish is the best symphonic metal band of the world and Floor the third leadsinger made the band known for ever. She is brilliant and she can sing anything. If you want to be convinced, listen to two totally different numbers. "Yours an empty hope" in which Floor does the low crawls (unbelievable) and than "The poet and the pendulum" the masterpiece of Tuomas, the keyboard player and composer of all Nightwish numbers. Phenominal. Stay healthy dear lady.
Think that slide was good? :) Listen to "Romanticide" and listen to Floor and Marko do a slide for the ages. Floor goes a full three octaves up and then about an octave down with Marko hanging in most of the way up.
@@MoMoMyPup10 I normally HATE spoiler whiners where things shouldn't be considered spoilers, but... yeah. This is one. I showed a friend of mine that one with no intro. "Ok, I love this band, but I dont know why yo-.... Whoa. Fuk."
beautiful harmonizing between Floor and Marco is undeniable this song is a good way to showcase what this band can compose wow especially towards the end they sure know how to set a mood the beautiful transitions
That´s why she is our dutch goddess queen...She commands everything together with her generals on the stage with in front of her their Nightwish army...It´s sad that Marco left Nightwish...Watch also a dutch tv show Beste Zangers 2019(best singers), there you can see Floor Jansen sing different styles of songs or watch more of her solo songs she did besides Nightwish...She also did some songs with Epica and Ayreon. Also she did a cover for the game Final Fantasy "Sound of the Wind".
Feel where you’re coming from…. 71 years old and just discovered them 4 months ago and said the same as you…”why have I never heard them before?” Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 crowd..wow!! The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Sensory overload….NW style!!
the level of creativity in reguards to the feel and rhythm of this song gets faster and definitley showcases what this band is capable of doing not just rhythmically but the layers of color along with the extremely talented professional musicians being able to such effortlessly transitions between sounds whether they be drums vocals guitars or troy flute or pipes the communication that this band has with each other is really something beautifully synced up, locked in that sort of thing with those sounds
Floor is without doubt our goddess, and honestly you can't go wrong watching any song they play in this concert. But there're a few others that the Nightwish Army will recommend, I hope you enjoy them all.
Just in case anyone is interested the words appearing behind the band is recited in the studio version and is this: " Song Of Myself" [1. From A Dusty Bookshelf] [2. All That Great Heart Lying Still] The nightingale is still locked in the cage The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs An old oak sheltering me from the blue Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves A catnap in the ghost town of my heart She dreams of STORYTIME and the RIVER GHOSTS Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the ride Raving harlequins, gigantic toys A song of me a song in need Of a courageous symphony A verse of me a verse in need Of a pure-heart singing me to peace All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing All that great heart lying still In silent suffering Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end What is left for encore Is the same old DEAD BOYS POEM Sung in silence All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing A midnight flight into Covington Woods A princess and a panther by my side These are Territories I live for I'd still give my everything to love you more A song of me a song in need Of a courageous symphony A verse of me a verse in need Of a pure-heart singing me to peace All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angelwing now all that great heart lying still In silent suffering Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end What is left for encore Is the same old dead boy's song Sung in silence All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angelwing A silent symphony A hollow opus #1,2,3 Sometimes the sky is piano black Piano black over cleansing waters Resting pipes, verse of bore Rusting keys without a door Sometimes the within is piano black Piano black over cleansing waters All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing [4. Love] I see a slow, simple youngster by a busy street, with a begging bowl in his shaking hand. Trying to smile but hurting infinitely. Nobody notices. I do, but walk by. An old man gets naked and kisses a model-doll in his attic It's half-light and he's in tears. When he finally cums his eyes are cascading. I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley. He tries to bite me. All pride has left his wild drooling eyes. I wish I had my leg to spare. A mother visits her son, smiles to him through the bars. She's never loved him more. An obese girl enters an elevator with me. All dressed up fancy, a green butterfly on her neck. Terribly sweet perfume deafens me. She's going to dinner alone. That makes her even more beautiful. I see a model's face on a brick wall. A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill. A city that worships flesh. The first thing I ever heard was a wandering man telling his story It was you, the grass under my bare feet The campfire in the dead of the night The heavenly black of sky and sea It was us Roaming the rainy roads, combing the guilded beaches Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn Bathing in places no-one's seen before Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island Clad in nothing but the surf - beauty's finest robe Beyond all mortality we are, swinging in the breath of nature In early air of the dawn of life A sight to silence the heavens I want to travel where life travels, following its permanent lead Where the air tastes like snow music Where grass smells like fresh-born Eden I would pass no man, no stranger, no tragedy or rapture I would bathe in a world of sensation Love, goodness and simplicity (While violated and imprisoned by technology) The thought of my family's graves was the only moment I used to experience true love That love remains infinite as I'll never be the man my father is How can you "just be yourself" when you don't know who you are? Stop saying "Yeah, I know how you feel." How could anyone know how another feels? Who am I to judge a priest, beggar, whore, politician, wrongdoer? I am, you are, all of them already Dear child, stop working, go play Forget every rule There's no fear in a dream "Is there a village inside this snowflake?" - a child asked me "What's the colour of our lullaby?" I've never been so close to truth as them I touched its silver lining Death is the winner in any war Nothing noble in dying for your religion For your country For ideology, for faith For another man, yes Paper is dead without words Ink idle without a poem All the world dead without stories Without love and disarming beauty Careless realism costs souls Ever seen the Lord smile? All the care for the world made Beautiful a sad man? Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks? Oh, how rotten your pre-apocalypse is All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground I see all those empty cradles and wonder If man will ever change I, too, wish to be a decent manboy but all I am Is smoke and mirrors Still given everything, may I be deserving And there forever remains that change from G to E minor.
Wait till she starts doing the low guttural growls.. Yea, every song they do here at this show is mind blowing good.. Buy, it doesn't stop here.. There is the Wembley Arena show, Tampere concert, Buenos Aries... and so on.. There has to be about a hundred different Nightwish songs out there on RUclips in an official live video format recorded from a performance from somewhere in the world.
I 100% agree that the recording and editing of the entire concert video is phenomenal. I actually sent a not to another band, suggesting that they hire whoever made this consort video to record their next!
that's why we call her our Valkyrie Goddess, and you are right, each member is a master at their chosen endeavor. Put them together and you have the perfect storm. NightWish doesn't create songs, they create stories or journeys, I too wish I could be taken back in time to this concert, but alas not possible, closest we can come is the BluRay disc from this show, and Wembley, and Tampere, and Buenos Aires...................all awesome great reaction.......more please....Storytime, Romanticide
Absolutely no need to go back to 2013 - Nightwish are very much still alive, starting out on a new world tour this summer - and they are better than ever!!! In 2013, Floor was singing old songs not written to her incredible range - from 2015 - the songs are!!!! And when she joined the band in 2012, and became permanent member in 13, she brought along a huge new energy and whole new level of stage power - and direct contact/dialog with the audience!! As both Floor herself along with the rest of the band said - she found "home" - both Nightwish and Floor started on an evolutionary journey, that is still very much in progress - they are breaking new land in what's possible to do - and how!!! Imagine being in the world's top 3 composers and songwriters - and suddenly realize that you have no more limitations, boundaries or whatsoever to cope with in your writing and creating - Floor are able to do completely insane and complicated things with her voice and breath techniques - and far better than you as a writer can ever imagine - because it hasn't been done before.... That is the current state of Nightwish!! But - this Wacken 2013 concert are legendary (like Wembley and Tampere 2015 - and Buenos Aires 2018 - and the recent 2 Virtual shows will be) 😂 - so I fully understand what you say. And you have still only scratched the surface of Nightwish's and Floor's capabilities!!! Enjoy your journey into the Nightwish Universe - greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘

Marco - Bass and vocals (wait until you hear him sing with Floor and solo....) This band is going to rock your world dude. Emppu - Lead guitar (jokester and very deliberative in his playing) Jukka on drums, but had to stop due to insomnia (but is still behind the scenes with Nightwish), new drummer is Kai who was the drummer with Wintersun.

that's why she is our Valkerie Queen. Floor and Marko are awesome together, if you want to hear Marko sing, then listen to the song " While your lips are still red" or "The islander" both amazing songs and this time Floor is back-up vocalist...really she is... greets from the netherlands.
Floor is one of those artists who have a very good sense on drama. Her body movements, expressions and timing is pitch perfect. She in a way really understands the music and expresses it through not only her godly voice, but also through everything else as well. She takes in the drama of Tuomas' music and expresses it as her own. A goddamn treasure in Floor Nightwish captured, since neither Tarja or Annette could never express the music as Floor does. And Marco has always been awesome.
@sofie, this was actually song 14 of 15 in the set list of this legendary and epic concert Wacken 2013. This epic song went right after Ghost Love Score. From this same concert Everdream, Storytime, Romanticide , Ghost River (gives you lots of Marko(base), all different all epic. Actually the whole concert is epic.🤟✌️🇨🇦
I think for many, this whole performance that night is one of the best ever. With the whole backstory of how the good Floor joined the band in the middle of this tour and within the shortest time made all the songs, which were actually written for other singers, into her very own versions without destroying the originals. She is perhaps the most talented and versatile voice in the entire rock/metal scene. Together with the whole band and the genius songwriter Tuomas, who is rightly nicknamed 'Metal-Mozart', pure magic is created! 🤘🏻 【 'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!' - Band-Maid 】🕊️
Her favourite song Nightwish Ann Carone Diamond Waychoff, 66, of Titusville, passed away Sunday, June 28, 2020 at UPMC Hamot." Requestat in Pacem" "Forever to the memory of the late source of Nightwish Family positivity, dear Ann Wachoff 💛 Gabriel has continued her enheritage with honor and I respect that.
since Floor became the lead for nightwish the band took a big leap upwards her voice is what this band needed and also her technique in singing simply epic
So again. R.IP.Ann, wonderfull soul.🌹 i wait for the Moment, when one Reactor do it with the Poem at the end. I mean, never coming." A Child. is there a Village in a Snowflake"?
Your reaction to Marko is priceless, & so genuine! We’ve all been there! Has there ever been a more bad-ass duo? Not in my book! Needless to yell but MARKO - come back, come back!!
I love ALL Nightwish songs, and each day I love different ones more than others ! BUT, I love this song Everyday and can't help but call it my favorite ! WOW, what a great Reaction 😎💜 !
Nightwish is a machine that contains only the best parts. That includes all technicians that make a show like theirs so perfect. Each and everyone of them!
Midwest Division of Nightwish of Nightwish Army - Great Lakes Battalion checking in from the Straits of Mackinac / Mackinac Island, Lake Huron, USA... Checking in, showing support for your 2nd Nightwish reaction, enjoying this journey with you!!
1) I enjoyed that Floorgasm almost as much as you did. Stunning. Thank you. :D 2) Great reaction throughout. Seriously, now. 3) If you want to see Floor's onstage power and presence, "7 Days to the Wolves" from the Wembley concert. Another killer concert. Nightwish Army - Australia Division - reporting for duty. \m/ 0_o \m/ Live long and Nightwish.
Yes, we love her too. Glad you enjoyed it. You’ll love Ever Dream and Nemo and my favorite performance, I want my tears back, from Buenos Aires. You think you love her now? Hang on.
If you read the comments, you will see many suggestions. You can check a weekly video from them, and I promise we will be here. Enjoying your Nightwish journey with you. And you have MANY MANY songs to listen to, Wacken 2013 alone has much moreto offer THE WHOLE CONCERT IS GREAT.
omg you are just starting the rabbit hole with so many great Marko moments but sad to say he left in Jan 2021 3 months after my NW journey but you will hear great Marko singing if you do more my first with him was Ever Dream n the latest n most beautiful is While your Lips are still Red
😂😂😂 " it's only fair to react to every single one" LMAO welcome the the Nightwish Army dear. Best symphonic metal band. How I wish I was there in Waken 2013'. Alas!! I'll see them in Finland this June 🖤🖤🤘🖤🔥🤘
I have no idea what happened that magical night way back in 2013 but im so glad this show got recorded and i have seen it many many times and it never gets old. I dare u to find a better consert ever. Every single one of them brought their A game that magical night.
Welcome to the magical world of Nightwish. You haven't even scratched the surface. This is the deepest rabbit hole you can imagine. The Wacken concert is nuts, but it was only the beginning of the NW era with Floor. So you still have a lot of other concerts to discover - Tampere, Wembley or Buenos Aires. And at the end of your journey there is the whole fantastic NW world before Floor Jansen. Also Tarja will blow your mind as a vocalist 😂.
It's late but... welcome to the Nightwish Army.... ! (By the way... I WAS THERE in 2013... Germany, Wacken... I luckily only live 45 minutes from Wacken. That was the best concert of my live.... SO FAR)
There is another band called epica. Who work in the same style. And it's interesting to know that nightwish and epica fans both always support each other. And both groups are closely related. And simone, the singer of epica, and floor, singer of nightwish, are old friends, and their voices are the same color, and they are both trained in the same way. Floor collaborated on the song epica sancta terra. And I suggest you listen to this song. To see the miracle of floor and simone sound together. epica sancta terra.
Everything they do is better than this. You will understand what that means after you have heard several more of their songs. Most will be your favorites until you hear the next one. I hate to say it but Nightwish is a lifestyle in a way. I listen everyday and also try to find a little time to watch Nightwish reaction videos. I do listen to other stuff but Nightwish or Floor reaction videos are probably 70% of what I watch. They are the most incredible thing I have ever had the experience of seeing.
Everyone who belongs to this band, whether on or behind the stage, belongs to the absolute top of the world.But that is only part of the success.In addition, there is this unconditional joy of playing that every band member conveys to the fans in the audience. Well, and then there's Floor - her extremely strong personality paired with these infinite vocal possibilities makes everyone instantly addicted.
Once in a lifetime show? Just wait til you start seeing the videos from Wembley, Tampere, and Buenos Aires. There are so many good ones that it would take you months to get through them. Thank you for the great video
That’s the same way I feel every time I hear Nightwish , I wish I could time travel back to 2013 and be at that concert! ❤️Nightwish ❤️ Floor ! Welcome 🤗
SofieReacts, I appreciate your reactions. The Goddess Floor would thank you herself but there are just too many such reactions for even a Goddess to respond to. The Nightwish Army will therefore thank you. THANK YOU.
Floor is an absolute vocal athlete. How the hell is she able to sustain such insane vocal belts, growls, clean, distorted, operatic, etc for this whole concert? If singing was an Olympic event she would have more Gold medals than Michael Phelps.
Someone has a crush. Don't worry, impossible not to. Floor does that to all of us. 😁 👍
Arizona chapter of the Nightwish Army reporting in. I fully understand how you have fallen in love with our Queen; Floor IS a once in a lifetime talent and never, and I mean NEVER, disappoints. Keep up your journey into Nightwish and Floor, I promise you will not regret it.
Hey Arizona! Are we dividing up by state because Texas is huge. Haha
The entire universe has a crush on Floor. It's her world and we're just living in it. It just says everything about her that almost every single person reacting to Nightwish immediately starts calling her a goddess. :D
And yes, NW's sound engineers are the best of the best. This show is honestly among the most legendary live recordings ever, everything is just perfect.
Marko kills it in The Phantom of the Opera . He is an unbelievable vocalist. It was almost unfair to other bands that they had 2 singers this good.
It’s like Kamelot with Roy and now Tommy.
Yeah, when the Goddess of Metal and Empathy and the Viking are singing together. .... they are truly Epic.
Hail Nightwish 😃😃😃😃😃😈
RIP Ann Waychoff, den mother and first Queen of the Nightwish nation. Every time I hear this song I think of you, it is a beautiful song and you are dearly missed.
RIP Ann 🕯
Always get a tear or two when I hear this song. RIP Ann.

Not anymore.
I’m going to miss how well Floor and Marco mixed together.
@@syyneater Hopefully he'll be back in the future.
@@Irespecktyouall They really need someone with that kind of rock voice again. Troy does his stuff very well, but he is different kind of singer.
I really think it’s gonna take 2 people to replace Marco.
SoFie, that was the traditional "Oh, He Can Sing, Too" reaction face at 2:35. Classic. You ain't heard nothin' yet. Marko will suprise you time and time again.
15 songs in the set at Wacken 2013. Every song is better than the last one...no matter how you choose them to react to.

This concert is a big part of the adventure, but it is just the tip of the iceberg! Welcome to the ARMY!!
Next one: Ever Dream - Nightwish
Yes, Official Live, it does not end abruptly, and has a short introduction by Floor in the beginning.
Lets wait for the new concert video most songs there are really awesome , like the live version of Shoemaker
Just check the video is the correct speed.
Floor jansen and henk poort doing phantom of the opera on beste zangers and you won't be disappointed
you know it's about to get real when the drummer stands up! Floor's stage presence and windmills are equally as legendary as her singing. her and Marco singing together is just indescribable. i often wonder if there was a moment during rehearsals and sound checks when they looked at each other and thought, damn we sound Awesome! Wacken Open Air is well known for the quality of the recording you get when performing there.
Nightwish is a lifetime journey to humanity ❤️ Best live band in this Universe
You really, really need to watch "Storytime" from this same concert. Floor's vocals will stun and amaze you.
YES! Must have!
I just for the first time watched Amaranth from This show and i have been watching for 2 years needless to say Im damn shook up
Last ride of the day , sadly Marco the bass player has left, and so has the jukka the drummer...
That said, the whole concert was a blast! Amazing audio and song list and performance !!!
everdream - high and hard
Just to throw it out there, that "little" goddess is 6ft tall lol. Great reaction! Nightwish brought me and earned a sub, then I HAD to become a patron for Buffy! Loving the content! Please do more Nightwish! As someone who only discovered them in the last year and hardly listens to anything else at the moment, I can tell you that they only get better the more you listen.

You earned my thump without any doubt. What a great comment. Nightwish is the best symphonic metal band of the world and Floor the third leadsinger made the band known for ever. She is brilliant and she can sing anything. If you want to be convinced, listen to two totally different numbers. "Yours an empty hope" in which Floor does the low crawls (unbelievable) and than "The poet and the pendulum" the masterpiece of Tuomas, the keyboard player and composer of all Nightwish numbers. Phenominal.
Stay healthy dear lady.
how does it feel like to experience Floorgasm every now and then?? Our Valkyrie Goddess has you in her grasp now.
Think that slide was good? :) Listen to "Romanticide" and listen to Floor and Marko do a slide for the ages. Floor goes a full three octaves up and then about an octave down with Marko hanging in most of the way up.
I do wish people wouldn't TELL people this.
**SPOILER ALERT**
@@MoMoMyPup10 I normally HATE spoiler whiners where things shouldn't be considered spoilers, but... yeah. This is one. I showed a friend of mine that one with no intro. "Ok, I love this band, but I dont know why yo-.... Whoa. Fuk."
@@hazelangus Nah, it's fine. You can tell people it's coming, but they can't imagine what it'll be like when it happens.
This might be the best, unpretentious reaction to Nightwish ever!
beautiful harmonizing between Floor and Marco is undeniable this song is a good way to showcase what this band can compose wow especially towards the end they sure know how to set a mood the beautiful transitions
That´s why she is our dutch goddess queen...She commands everything together with her generals on the stage with in front of her their Nightwish army...It´s sad that Marco left Nightwish...Watch also a dutch tv show Beste Zangers 2019(best singers), there you can see Floor Jansen sing different styles of songs or watch more of her solo songs she did besides Nightwish...She also did some songs with Epica and Ayreon.

LOVE YOUR REACTION!!!!!!!! You will definitely want to see the rest of this show!!!! The journey continues!!!
This band is stellar & Floor is such a bright star that one does need sunglasses.
For more marko: the islander, high hopes, romanticide, phantom of the opera
Feel where you’re coming from…. 71 years old and just discovered them 4 months ago and said the same as you…”why have I never heard them before?”
Wacken 2013 starring Nightwish and co-starring the 80,000 crowd..wow!!
The energy this band always creates with their crowd connection is incredible!! Sensory overload….NW style!!
yep Nightwish is next level and beyond pure art
the level of creativity in reguards to the feel and rhythm of this song gets faster and definitley showcases what this band is capable of doing not just rhythmically but the layers of color along with the extremely talented professional musicians being able to such effortlessly transitions between sounds whether they be drums vocals guitars or troy flute or pipes the communication that this band has with each other is really something beautifully synced up, locked in that sort of thing with those sounds
Floor is without doubt our goddess, and honestly you can't go wrong watching any song they play in this concert. But there're a few others that the Nightwish Army will recommend, I hope you enjoy them all.
Just in case anyone is interested the words appearing behind the band is recited in the studio version and is this: "
Song Of Myself"
[1. From A Dusty Bookshelf]
[2. All That Great Heart Lying Still]
The nightingale is still locked in the cage
The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs
An old oak sheltering me from the blue
Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves
A catnap in the ghost town of my heart
She dreams of STORYTIME and the RIVER GHOSTS
Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the ride
Raving harlequins, gigantic toys
A song of me a song in need
Of a courageous symphony
A verse of me a verse in need
Of a pure-heart singing me to peace
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
All that great heart lying still
In silent suffering
Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
What is left for encore
Is the same old DEAD BOYS POEM
Sung in silence
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
A midnight flight into Covington Woods
A princess and a panther by my side
These are Territories I live for
I'd still give my everything to love you more
A song of me a song in need
Of a courageous symphony
A verse of me a verse in need
Of a pure-heart singing me to peace
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angelwing
now all that great heart lying still
In silent suffering
Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
What is left for encore
Is the same old dead boy's song
Sung in silence
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angelwing
A silent symphony
A hollow opus #1,2,3
Sometimes the sky is piano black
Piano black over cleansing waters
Resting pipes, verse of bore
Rusting keys without a door
Sometimes the within is piano black
Piano black over cleansing waters
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
[4. Love]
I see a slow, simple youngster by a busy street,
with a begging bowl in his shaking hand.
Trying to smile but hurting infinitely. Nobody notices.
I do, but walk by.
An old man gets naked and kisses a model-doll in his attic
It's half-light and he's in tears.
When he finally cums his eyes are cascading.
I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley. He tries to bite me.
All pride has left his wild drooling eyes.
I wish I had my leg to spare.
A mother visits her son, smiles to him through the bars.
She's never loved him more.
An obese girl enters an elevator with me.
All dressed up fancy, a green butterfly on her neck.
Terribly sweet perfume deafens me.
She's going to dinner alone.
That makes her even more beautiful.
I see a model's face on a brick wall.
A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill.
A city that worships flesh.
The first thing I ever heard was a wandering man telling his story
It was you, the grass under my bare feet
The campfire in the dead of the night
The heavenly black of sky and sea
It was us
Roaming the rainy roads, combing the guilded beaches
Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn
Bathing in places no-one's seen before
Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island
Clad in nothing but the surf - beauty's finest robe
Beyond all mortality we are, swinging in the breath of nature
In early air of the dawn of life
A sight to silence the heavens
I want to travel where life travels, following its permanent lead
Where the air tastes like snow music
Where grass smells like fresh-born Eden
I would pass no man, no stranger, no tragedy or rapture
I would bathe in a world of sensation
Love, goodness and simplicity
(While violated and imprisoned by technology)
The thought of my family's graves was the only moment
I used to experience true love
That love remains infinite as I'll never be the man my father is
How can you "just be yourself" when you don't know who you are?
Stop saying "Yeah, I know how you feel."
How could anyone know how another feels?
Who am I to judge a priest, beggar, whore, politician, wrongdoer?
I am, you are, all of them already
Dear child, stop working, go play
Forget every rule
There's no fear in a dream
"Is there a village inside this snowflake?"
- a child asked me
"What's the colour of our lullaby?"
I've never been so close to truth as them
I touched its silver lining
Death is the winner in any war
Nothing noble in dying for your religion
For your country
For ideology, for faith
For another man, yes
Paper is dead without words
Ink idle without a poem
All the world dead without stories
Without love and disarming beauty
Careless realism costs souls
Ever seen the Lord smile?
All the care for the world made Beautiful a sad man?
Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks?
Oh, how rotten your pre-apocalypse is
All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground
I see all those empty cradles and wonder
If man will ever change
I, too, wish to be a decent manboy but all I am
Is smoke and mirrors
Still given everything, may I be deserving
And there forever remains that change from G to E minor.
Wait till she starts doing the low guttural growls.. Yea, every song they do here at this show is mind blowing good.. Buy, it doesn't stop here.. There is the Wembley Arena show, Tampere concert, Buenos Aries... and so on.. There has to be about a hundred different Nightwish songs out there on RUclips in an official live video format recorded from a performance from somewhere in the world.
She does not "need" to do anything. Let her go on her flow... she will get where all of us are. Loving Nightwish.
I 100% agree that the recording and editing of the entire concert video is phenomenal. I actually sent a not to another band, suggesting that they hire whoever made this consort video to record their next!
Great reaction. Your pronounciation of het name was perfect…greetings from the Netherlands!
that's why we call her our Valkyrie Goddess, and you are right, each member is a master at their chosen endeavor. Put them together and you have the perfect storm. NightWish doesn't create songs, they create stories or journeys, I too wish I could be taken back in time to this concert, but alas not possible, closest we can come is the BluRay disc from this show, and Wembley, and Tampere, and Buenos Aires...................all awesome great reaction.......more please....Storytime, Romanticide
Absolutely no need to go back to 2013 - Nightwish are very much still alive, starting out on a new world tour this summer - and they are better than ever!!!
In 2013, Floor was singing old songs not written to her incredible range - from 2015 - the songs are!!!! And when she joined the band in 2012, and became permanent member in 13, she brought along a huge new energy and whole new level of stage power - and direct contact/dialog with the audience!! As both Floor herself along with the rest of the band said - she found "home" - both Nightwish and Floor started on an evolutionary journey, that is still very much in progress - they are breaking new land in what's possible to do - and how!!!
Imagine being in the world's top 3 composers and songwriters - and suddenly realize that you have no more limitations, boundaries or whatsoever to cope with in your writing and creating - Floor are able to do completely insane and complicated things with her voice and breath techniques - and far better than you as a writer can ever imagine - because it hasn't been done before....
That is the current state of Nightwish!!
But - this Wacken 2013 concert are legendary (like Wembley and Tampere 2015 - and Buenos Aires 2018 - and the recent 2 Virtual shows will be) 😂 - so I fully understand what you say.
And you have still only scratched the surface of Nightwish's and Floor's capabilities!!!
Enjoy your journey into the Nightwish Universe - greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘
Just in case you would like to see a lot more of Nightwish, this is for you. These are all mostly with lyrics embedded. :)
Welcome, to Nightwish. :) Here is my list for you......but first.....
Floor Jansen (pronounced Yansen) who is actually Dutch and the 3rd of the bands lead singers.
By the way....she is 6'1" and known as the Valkyrie Goddess.
Marco - Bass and vocals (wait until you hear him sing with Floor and solo....)
This band is going to rock your world dude.
Emppu - Lead guitar
(jokester and very deliberative in his playing)
Jukka on drums, but had to stop due to insomnia (but is still behind the scenes with Nightwish), new drummer is Kai who was the drummer with Wintersun.
Tuomas - keyboards and main song writer/choreographer for Nightwish aka genius. :)
And Troy, who you will see trust me, as he is vocals/flute/woodwind/bagpipes/you name it lol. :)
Here's just a few Nightwish live songs for you to choose from....

I hope this list is a good start for your journey and I hope the rest of the Nightwish Army agrees with these choices :) Thanks :)
that's why she is our Valkerie Queen. Floor and Marko are awesome together, if you want to hear Marko sing, then listen to the song " While your lips are still red" or "The islander" both amazing songs and this time Floor is back-up vocalist...really she is... greets from the netherlands.
Floor is one of those artists who have a very good sense on drama. Her body movements, expressions and timing is pitch perfect.
She in a way really understands the music and expresses it through not only her godly voice, but also through everything else as well. She takes in the drama of Tuomas' music and expresses it as her own.
A goddamn treasure in Floor Nightwish captured, since neither Tarja or Annette could never express the music as Floor does.
And Marco has always been awesome.
You said it!
One of my favorite songs!
Great to see Marco getting the credit he deserves. He's so often shaded by Floor's brilliance, but he's brilliant too!
You must see the video “dangerous game” floor ft henk poort (jekyll & hide) cover. So beautiful.
... now when it comes to memorable Nightwish live songs, this adventure trip won't be limited to Wacken! May the journey never end ...
And the further you down this rabbit hole, the better it will get and more of what Floor can do with her voice. And the band of course
My Queen summoned me!
@sofie, this was actually song 14 of 15 in the set list of this legendary and epic concert Wacken 2013. This epic song went right after Ghost Love Score. From this same concert Everdream, Storytime, Romanticide , Ghost River (gives you lots of Marko(base), all different all epic. Actually the whole concert is epic.🤟✌️🇨🇦
I think for many, this whole performance that night is one of the best ever. With the whole backstory of how the good Floor joined the band in the middle of this tour and within the shortest time made all the songs, which were actually written for other singers, into her very own versions without destroying the originals. She is perhaps the most talented and versatile voice in the entire rock/metal scene. Together with the whole band and the genius songwriter Tuomas, who is rightly nicknamed 'Metal-Mozart', pure magic is created! 🤘🏻
【 'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!' - Band-Maid 】🕊️
Spot on! I listened already some 50 times or so to the entire concert and it is pure magic; best ever!
I LOVE This band! I LOVE Floor Jansen ❤️🥰 best voice and performer on earth! The Queen of everything!
Her favourite song
Nightwish

"Forever to the memory of the late source of Nightwish Family positivity, dear
Ann Wachoff 💛
Gabriel has continued her enheritage with honor and I respect that.
since Floor became the lead for nightwish the band took a big leap upwards her voice is what this band needed and also her technique in singing
simply epic
7:24 “Every single one of the band members ... is just incredible.”
Yup! You got it!!
So again. R.IP.Ann, wonderfull soul.🌹 i wait for the Moment, when one Reactor do it with the Poem at the end. I mean, never coming." A Child. is there a Village in a Snowflake"?
Your reaction to Marko is priceless, & so genuine! We’ve all been there! Has there ever been a more bad-ass duo? Not in my book! Needless to yell but MARKO - come back, come back!!
I'd go back to 2013 with you in a heart beat. Now you understand the power of NIGHTWISH.
Just realized how important Marko is for Nightwish.... Pfffff i miss him already
Oh boy, looking forward to this journey!! I feel that little “crush” may grow a bit bigger!
I love ALL Nightwish songs, and each day I love different ones more than others ! BUT, I love this song Everyday and can't help but call it my favorite ! WOW, what a great Reaction 😎💜 !
Nightwish is a machine that contains only the best parts.
That includes all technicians that make a show like theirs so perfect.
Each and everyone of them!
Yes, please! Every song from this glorious concert! Thanks! 😁 👍👌🤘✊ Great, great reaction!
Floor is the most versatile singer on the planet
She's a goddess, she can do whatever she wants with her voice
One of the best reactions ive seen ......oh and BTW we all have a crush on The Valkyrie Goddess
Midwest Division of Nightwish of Nightwish Army - Great Lakes Battalion checking in from the Straits of Mackinac / Mackinac Island, Lake Huron, USA...
Checking in, showing support for your 2nd Nightwish reaction, enjoying this journey with you!!
Yes! I know how u feel 😍💥 More of this spectacular band, thank you 😉
that evening they performed 12 songs like this and then she sang Ghost love score, you can imagine their strength
Yes, you should react to every song at this show. All different, all amazing.
Nice reaction. More nightwish please and yes the wacken show is special… regards from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thanks for your reaction. So nice to see how you enjoyed this show. I also wished I had been there. Greetings from the Netherlands. 👍🇳🇱
1) I enjoyed that Floorgasm almost as much as you did. Stunning. Thank you. :D
2) Great reaction throughout. Seriously, now.
3) If you want to see Floor's onstage power and presence, "7 Days to the Wolves" from the Wembley concert. Another killer concert.
Nightwish Army - Australia Division - reporting for duty. \m/ 0_o \m/ Live long and Nightwish.
Yes, we love her too. Glad you enjoyed it. You’ll love Ever Dream and Nemo and my favorite performance, I want my tears back, from Buenos Aires. You think you love her now? Hang on.
Both Jukka and Marco are sorely missed - wonderful musicians who added so much to NW.
You can’t go wrong with the 2013 Wacken show! #1 on my list of shows to go back in time to attend.
Real and professional comments and observations, really like that. Have fun with Nightwish 👍
If you read the comments, you will see many suggestions. You can check a weekly video from them, and I promise we will be here. Enjoying your Nightwish journey with you. And you have MANY MANY songs to listen to, Wacken 2013 alone has much moreto offer THE WHOLE CONCERT IS GREAT.
ANN YOU WERE HERE
I am glad someone didn't forget to mention her!
Came looking for it, wasn't disappoint. RIP Ann.
💖🙏🕯
omg you are just starting the rabbit hole with so many great Marko moments but sad to say he left in Jan 2021 3 months after my NW journey
but you will hear great Marko singing if you do more my first with him was Ever Dream n the latest n most beautiful is While your Lips are still Red
😂😂😂 " it's only fair to react to every single one" LMAO welcome the the Nightwish Army dear. Best symphonic metal band. How I wish I was there in Waken 2013'. Alas!! I'll see them in Finland this June 🖤🖤🤘🖤🔥🤘
Nobody would believe she was substitute vocalis on that show, bcoz she nails it all
I have no idea what happened that magical night way back in 2013 but im so glad this show got recorded and i have seen it many many times and it never gets old. I dare u to find a better consert ever. Every single one of them brought their A game that magical night.
Welcome to the magical world of Nightwish. You haven't even scratched the surface. This is the deepest rabbit hole you can imagine. The Wacken concert is nuts, but it was only the beginning of the NW era with Floor. So you still have a lot of other concerts to discover - Tampere, Wembley or Buenos Aires. And at the end of your journey there is the whole fantastic NW world before Floor Jansen. Also Tarja will blow your mind as a vocalist 😂.
Jukka is killing it on the drums.
It's late but... welcome to the Nightwish Army.... ! (By the way... I WAS THERE in 2013... Germany, Wacken... I luckily only live 45 minutes from Wacken. That was the best concert of my live.... SO FAR)
Glad that you appriciate any detail and band member!
If you like this vocal slide by Marco, wait until you see Romanticide!
Yes, we agree. Floor is the COMPLETE package.........and then some.
There is another band called epica. Who work in the same style. And it's interesting to know that nightwish and epica fans both always support each other. And both groups are closely related. And simone, the singer of epica, and floor, singer of nightwish, are old friends, and their voices are the same color, and they are both trained in the same way. Floor collaborated on the song epica sancta terra. And I suggest you listen to this song. To see the miracle of floor and simone sound together. epica sancta terra.
Everything they do is better than this. You will understand what that means after you have heard several more of their songs. Most will be your favorites until you hear the next one. I hate to say it but Nightwish is a lifestyle in a way. I listen everyday and also try to find a little time to watch Nightwish reaction videos. I do listen to other stuff but Nightwish or Floor reaction videos are probably 70% of what I watch. They are the most incredible thing I have ever had the experience of seeing.
Have a listen to "Lips are still red" from Live at Wembley, Marco's vocal with Floor complementing him.
FLOOR IS A GODESS
"She's opera trained, rock trained...!"
She's the whole train :).
And she is a nice person too!
She also can growl... In "Yours is an empty hope" you can hear it
Everyone who belongs to this band, whether on or behind the stage, belongs to the absolute top of the world.But that is only part of the success.In addition, there is this unconditional joy of playing that every band member conveys to the fans in the audience. Well, and then there's Floor - her extremely strong personality paired with these infinite vocal possibilities makes everyone instantly addicted.
If you will go back in time to 2013 you have to queue up, only the flux capacitor is missing but I think we must go back to 2012 to get any tickets.
That concert had to be epic. So wish I had been there too.
Floor... its something out of this world. She is a treassure! And we all love her to bits.
Once in a lifetime show? Just wait til you start seeing the videos from Wembley, Tampere, and Buenos Aires. There are so many good ones that it would take you months to get through them. Thank you for the great video
That’s the same way I feel every time I hear Nightwish , I wish I could time travel back to 2013 and be at that concert! ❤️Nightwish ❤️ Floor ! Welcome 🤗
SofieReacts, I appreciate your reactions. The Goddess Floor would thank you herself but there are just too many such reactions for even a Goddess to respond to. The Nightwish Army will therefore thank you. THANK YOU.
God I miss Marko so much already….
you should check out Nightwish - The Islander (Live At Tampere) there you will hear the bass player Marko sing a song and its AMAZING
I agree, it's nice to hear the live instruments more than the backing orchestrals
