This is why people are so excited for you to get to Ghost River and Romanticide, because of how great Marko is in them 😅 Btw, girl watching right here, but you really don't have to behave, it's more fun when you don't 🤘
Adding my vote for Ghost River, Romanticide, and then for a twist, Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembly 2015. Both Marco and Floor singing, with a showcase of how vocally gifted Floor is. That woman is a Viking Goddess who can do ANYTHING.
EVERY SONG from this SEMINAL & LEGENDARY concert is GOLD and better than the originals ! You are entering the addiction zone ,even after this concert you have not even seen 20% of the experience and amazement !
Marko "Marco" Hietala is true pioneer of Finnish Heavy Metal, he started band with his brother Zachary beginning of 80's called Purgatory what later became Tarot, he is "was" very much involved everything that happened in Finnish and lots of European metal music since. Man is real beast.
This is true. The European metal scene (especially the symphonic side) is a bit like the Royal Houses of Europe: there's a lot of inbreeding, as in many members of different bands (like Marco) have worked, collaborated, performed and associated with each other at least once in the past.
The moment when reactors realize that Nightwish had 2 of the best metal singers in the world full stop during this unforgettable concert. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.
The whole show is legendary, the band is next level, Floor is the next level of the next level, totally from another dimension. And she's so beautiful and hot, it's not fair 🤣😍❤
Hello! Thank you for the video!Please pay attention to the young singer Diana Ankudinova.Make reactions to the songs of Wicked game, Human🌞🌞🌞DIANA ANKUDINOVA is a talented young singer. I would like to know your opinion. I think you will be surprised. Diana has a very unusual voice and artistic presentation for her age.🌹🌹🌹 Thanks in advance
Hey, if you guys love Marco singing then you should definitely check out Nightwish Pink Floyd high hopes cover end of an era album live show, awesome 😎Tarja era, before Floor Jansen. Thanks.
Marko (viking) won Masked Singer few months ago, with songs you'd never put in the same sentence with him. Dude has quality pipes and I'll be here when you hear his highlights.
Yes, great job guys and you having fun doing it. I love it. You gonna be so hooked by the end of this concert, and they got so much more to offer. Wacken 2013 is a great start! She is My Sin is next, and holy s***! When I watched that the first time, I was man, She is not Human, and this band is way over the top fantastic!
If you have some spare time, try the Viking guy performing "The Islander” at Tampere. And I think someone has to tell you that Marko left the band a couple of months ago. Hopefully just for a year to get healthy.
Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice!=)))) Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice.=))))))) I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years.
*Diana* *Ankudinova* sings in different styles and genres, but she is young and in search, in experiment and who knows ...! But still listen to "Wicked Game", Human "," Rechenka "- surprises are guaranteed!
Oh you are in for a treat: She’s My Sin, Ghost River, Everdream, I Want My Tears Back, Romanticide, Amaranth, Song Of Myself, Last Ride Of The Day. I’m sure you will them love all!
I have seen so many reactions now to Nightwish live songs... (Fuck Covid, Fuck my Life :-D) You two are hands down the most enjoyable reactors I have found so far... Keep it up!
Nightwish have been my absolute favourite band along with another band somewhat similar called Epica (They are slightly heavier and you NEED to check them out too) and they do not have ANY songs that I dislike or skip over, period. I absolutely love watching you guys fall in love with them, like I did. 😍
Guys I’m not a metal fan in any way shape or form and there’s not a single track from Wacken 13 that I don’t love. Ok it took me awhile to get into the heavier stuff but that’s only due to the fact I’ve never been into that. You really have just scratched the surface and will not be disappointed
Hi guys - finally, I've been waiting for you to react to NW more!! I kept checking if you uploaded more already. Not knowing anything about metal at all before - I still couldn't name a single Metallica song - NW has really blown me away. That's what they do! And not just because its fun to watch other people react to NW, but there's something very healing in these depressing times in which I've struggled a lot with loneliness etc (I had to move back from Myanmar, country next to Thailand, where I lived and worked for 4 years and now I'm 'stuck' living with my parents due to covid) to see other people genuinely fall in love with their music. Even with songs I wasn't as familiar with as I did follow the recommendations out there. Keep up the good work, please upload as much asap as it really brings so much joy, a sense of 'togetherness', and an escape from reality. My favourite songs btw are, besides storytime, 7 days to the wolves, weak fantasy, the poet and the pendulum (you NEED to research beforehand), the greatest show on earth (tampere show), and elvenjig/elvenpath as it's just so much fun! They can't do anything wrong really, even when I tend to listen to some songs less you can't but be amazed by their musicianship. When possible, I'd advise you to look up the lyrics as well as that brings even more appreciation. Tuomas also has a band called Auri with Troy (you haven't seen him yet but will) and his wife.. Add the song Night 13 to your list as well :-). Love from the Netherlands.
Hi from the UK check out floor jansens friends (Simone simons) band called epica it's another symphonic metal band 😀 Epica consign to oblivion live at the zenith Paris Epica sancta terra with floor jansen retrospect show Floor is singing as a guest with a full orchestra on stage Epica unleashed live retrospect show Epica also have an army lol
Nightwish have quite many songs where Floor and Marko sings together and it is really joy too see/heard them together on these live performances. Also there are some songs where Marko is leading vocalist and Floor takes care back vocals. It is also worth to check solo album from Marko, here is his song "Stones" ruclips.net/video/ifc3gBsM6B0/видео.html
Yours is an Empty Hope... she growls. Master Passion Greed, not live, but one of their heaviest, angriest tracks. Phantom of the Opera, 'Viking" stealing the show, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, The Greatest Show on Earth.. and many many more good songs
Hey, you should definitely check out shudder before the beautiful wembley and yours is an empty hope wembley 2015 Floor growling here, and devil and the deep dark ocean and slaying the dreamer and elan beunos Aires live show 2019, awesome 😎
Another great song for Marko is......While Your lips are still Red....and their cover of Megadeth.......Symphony of Destruction.....and the cherry on top.......Master Passion Greed (this one is not played live but is still a a really awesome song)
One of their big hits from 2004. Do I sense a man crush developing? "She is my Sin" next and Marko introduces Floor to the Wacken audience. See you then my friends. Peace.
Ya, give props to the drummer - ""Drumming Burns Calories, Builds Muscle And Gets Your Heart Pumping. Want to burn 400-600 calories an hour without getting out of your chair? Then you might want to treat yourself to a pair of drumsticks, and we're not talking about the kind that come fried in a bucket with two sides"".... Jukkas heavy metal beating with that setlist, geez!
I hope to see on your channel reactions to the songs of Diana Ankudinova. This is a singer with an amazing voice, who has covers of the songs "Human"," Wicked game","Take on Me". She also has her own songs.
"I´m in love with my lust , turning angelwings to dust"......I just love that shit!!! The way she feels down that mic stand reminds me of how lucky Hannes (Drummer of Sabaton) is marrying her. Well done Karl Hannes Dahl. As he said...."she liked pantera she liked whiskey, and she wanted to share a cigar with me, .....so I had to marry her......and I did!" That is just huge balls!
Love the fact you’re working your way thru Wacken. Just a bit of a suggestion, skip to Buenos Aires 2019 for “I want my Tears Back”. Wacken version is great, probably better audio, but Buenos has more crowd interaction. If already done ignore and continue on.
for POWER singing : Ever Dream Live wacken 2013 . to hear her growl : Yours is a Empty hope. also check out her cover of : Alone Floor is Dutch! and it's Floor and not fluur. her name sounds the same as the floor to you in english. as in "wet floor" as it says on those maintenance signs. that was also a joke by one of the band members for giving her such a sign . with kind regards Hollandduck from the Netherlands
now, you must see I WANT MY TEARS BACK - live BUENOS AIRES dvd (ft the best crowd in all the galaxy) and the song SANCTA TERRA of the band EPICA live version ft FLOOR
After Wacken you can check out Tampere 2015 and Buenos Aires 2018. You have a lot of work ahead of you! Try out Floor's best friend Simone Simons with "Epica" a Dutch Metalband. Start with Consign to Oblivion, live in Zenith, Paris or anything from there "Retrospect" concert with full (70 people) Orkestra and Choir. Just awesome...
🤔 You want heavier? Try the band Epica and the live songs, the essence of silence, consign to oblivion, Kingdom of heaven. Epica is a Dutch band the singer Simone Simons and Floor are friends there's even a performance with the two of them together ( Sancta Terra and in the same show they also do Stabat Matar from Pergolesi!). Btw, don't stop doing Nightwish they are awsome just like Epica. Love your reactions!!! 😁
Im a bit late to the party here on your channel as a Nightwish fan but ... Welcome to the phenomenon that is the genre of Symphonic metal and welcome to the Nightwish Army!! This was the Wacken Open Air Festival Concert back in 2013, and there were over 82,000 people at this concert. the current singer is from the Netherlands, and a majority of the band members are from Finland, although the woodwinds player is from England. They released their first album in 1996. SO WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC ACTUALLY IS BAND NIGHTWISH? Nightwish is actually one of the groups credited with the CREATION of the Metal Sub-genre of Symphonic Metal (according to Wikipedia!). Symphonic Metal in general only borrows the hard driving double kick drums, and the hard grungy style guitars and bass from Metal. However, in SYMPHONIC METAL the guitar is not the primary focal point, it is in fact the keyboards and their movie-scorish sounding orchestral sound. The keyboard player Tuomas Holopainen (first name pronounced as Too-oh-mas) is the composer of all of the music arrangements and is the leader of the group. He is a personal huge lover of movie scores, which is where a lot of the movie-scorish style sound of the keyboards comes from (which is the primary focal point of ALL of Nightwish’s music instrumentally). In Symphonic Metal 90-95% of all Symphonic Metal bands are all female fronted. Currently only Kamelot, Serenity, and a hand full of other Symphonic Metal bands even have male singers, and they are normally referred to as Symphonic Power Metal. The female fronted bands are the ones usually referred to over in Europe as ‘Symphonic Metal’. The most popular Symphonic Metal bands are Nightwish, Within Temptation, Epica, and Kamelot. When Symphonic Metal first started the female lead singers used an operatic style of singing, but as the Genre has evolved over the last 20+ years in the UK since Nightwish came long in 1996, they have adopted more of a contemporary style of singing like Floor uses currently. Floor Jansen is the 3rd and current Lead Singer since Nightwish released its first album in 1996, and she is from the Netherlands. Keep in mind when Floor did the Wacken Open Air in 2013 concert, she had not been with Nightwish for very long, she was actually a FILL-IN for this particular tour. Nightwish was in the middle of the Imaginearum World Tour when they parted ways with their SECOND Lead Singer Anette Olzen (from Sweden), and Tuomas (pronounced as Too-oh-mas) called Floor and asked her if she could learn their entire set list in 48 hours and then fill-in for them for the rest of the tour. Within the next few short months, the band posted their first Official Live Performance video since they fired their first lead singer Tarja Turunen at the end of November 2005. During Anette's entire tenure with the band, Nightwish did not post ONE single solitary live performance video on their official RUclips channel. Hmmm? Curious? At the end of this Imaginearum World Tour (just a few months later!), (As Floor tells the story in an interview) the Band pulled both Floor Jansen and Troy Donokley aside and asked them to be official members of the band. Floor said both her and Troy both had tears in their eyes. Troy had been a guest musician with the band on such official videos like The Islander, but never an official member of the band. The rest as they say ... is history. CURRENT BAND MEMBERS • Tuomas Holopainen - keyboards, piano, is the primary musical composer for all arrangements Is also who formed the band, and is the leader of the group. • Emppu Vuorinen - All guitars (been with the band since its inception) - (His name is pronounced Ehm-poo) • Marko Hietala - bass, male vocals, acoustic guitar (very recently this year retired from public life) • Troy Donockley - uilleann pipes, tin whistle, low whistle, guitars, bouzouki, bodhrán, backing vocals • Floor Jansen - lead vocals (Floor is Nightwish current and THIRD Lead Singer) • Kai Hahto - drums (NOT APART OF THE BAND YET WHEN THE WACKEN 2013 CONCERT WAS FILMED - Kai was hand picked by the groups original drummer Jukka Nevalainen to replace him when he had to stepped down for medical reasons listed below. Kai is a personal friend of Jukka’s, as well as was Jukka's drum teacher) FORMER BAND MEMBERS SEEN IN THIS CONCERT AT THE WACKEN OPEN AIR FESTIVAL FROM THE YEAR 2013: • Jukka Nevalainen - drums ( original drummer from 1997-2014 and is who you see playing drums in the Wacken Open Air Festival Show from 2013. He had to step down for severe medial reasons, and handpicked his replacement. Jukka nearly died from a period of 2 straight years of severe insomnia, and had to be hospitalized because of it. Even though he stepped down as drummer, according to Toumas, he is the CEO of the Nightwish Corporation now. So he is still very much a part of Nightwish.) Other Former Band Members NOT seen in this video: • Sami Vänskä - bass (1998-2001) • Tarja Turunen - vocals (Nightwish FIRST Singer for the first 10 years of Nightwish existence from 1996-2005) • Anette Olzon - vocals (Nightwish SECOND singer, from Sweden, from 2007-2012) These are some songs I would recommend to listening to: 1. Poet And The Pendulum - This is one of the corner stone songs for this band. I would RESEARCH THIS SONG BEFORE REACTING TO IT. I would also not do this one right away, I would build up to this and get a few Nightwish songs under your belt before doing it. As stated above Floor Jansen is their THIRD Singer. Their first singer sang entirely in the operatic style and was Nightwish Singer for TEN YEARS. Her last concert was THE END OF AN ERA DVD concert filmed the end of October of 2005. Immediately after the conclusion of the END OF AN ERA concert Tarja received a letter called "The Open Letter" from the band telling her they were parting ways with her. Poet And the Pendulum is about the emotional heart wrenching experience of events that lead up to that decision, and the backlash from fans after ward. So this song is extremely INTENSELY emotional. Doing your research into this before hand will help you understand why the song is so emotional and why it was written in 5 acts like it was. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/iEzZRMthhXU/видео.html 2. Greatest Show On Earth - I would RESEARCH THIS SONG BEFORE REACTING TO IT. I would also not do this one right away, I would build up to this and get a few Nightwish songs under your belt before doing it. This song is about the creation of the universe, the big bang, and evolution. Be ready because this is a 20 min thrill ride that only feels like 3 or 4 minutes long. Also, I think its a good idea to look for the Tampere Finland show because of a surprise during the performance I dont want to ruin for you and it has lyrics so you can follow along. Look for the one with Lyrics and Fireworks both. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/bl6lUfIMkGM/видео.html 3. Ever Dream - my absolute all-time favorite Nightwish song. The most high energy song they’ve ever done in my opinion. The Wacken 2013 concert is your best introduction into this one. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/1Xi4n8dJcF8/видео.html 4. Romanticide - Be prepared because this is one of their heavier songs, and Floor and Marko both do some singing in this, and this one is an amazing thrill ride of a song. The Wacken 2013 concert is your best introduction into this one. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/zz_7OCCQlXs/видео.html 5. Yours Is An Empty Hope - Maybe do this one from the Tampere Finland Show off of the Vehicle of Spirit DVD because Floors back ground vocals behind Marko on the chorus is amazing. Be prepared because behind Marcos vocals on the chorus, is Floor growling. You read it correctly, yes she really CAN do everything!!. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XtXqUNB8zrU/видео.html 6. I Want My Tears Back - You will get to see another member of Nightwish Troy Donokley who is their multi-instrument band member. He plays a variety of things in different songs, and in this one plays a variation of the bag pipe called the uilleann pipe. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/ga-hR7CYbwQ/видео.html 7. Elan - (this is an extremely up beat high energy song that just leaves you feeling good). The Wembley Arena Show is a great one to react to. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XcwrwRKPaEg/видео.html 8. Alpenglow - this is JUST a feel good song which will up lift your spirits. This was such a fun song in the Wembley Arena Show from the Vehicle of Spirit DVD. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/FrJvKZNEh7g/видео.html 9. Nemo - Nemo is from a Latin word which means no one or nobody. It is about a time in Toumas life when he felt his direction in life was aimless, and without real direction. It’s an awesome song and a HUGE favorite of long time fans. This song was originally written during the Tarja Era (the first singers era). Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/dR1gH5aQWBU/видео.html 10. 10th Man Down - This is from the Buenos Aires Show in 2018 during the DECADES WORLD TOUR. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/Px1YJ0EdNAI/видео.html 11. Last Ride Of The Day - This song was the second to the last song for the Wembley Arena Show from the Vehicle Of Spirit Blu-ray/DVD. It is simply one kick ass song. Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/CdfhJmkZRbU/видео.html 12. 7 Days To The Wolves - This is another kick ass song from the second singers era, Anette Olzen, and I would do this from the Wembley Arena Show. You will also get to see Troy the woondwinds player on stage for this one!! Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XvsfwAPbWXc/видео.html
I don't know how many times I have heard reactors say, "why have we never heard of this band". Ill answer you now...we are all fucked over by the record companies pushing 99% utter shit, that's why.
"The Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" from Buenos Aires is a fantastic next step in order to experience their heavier and especially their faster side. And Marco becomes vocally Hannibal Lecter.
Its funny that he say that the level is at the Roof when they still have not heared there A list. Like pendulum, shoemaker, and.. hmm. Forgot the namn of the last one i was thinking about
Add to the list of metal women you've been missing out on: Noora Louhimo of Battle Beast (react to "Black Ninja" then "Bringer of Pain" for a sampling) Simone Simons of Epica
3 года назад
If you guys want to more Marco you should check Ever Dream and The Phantom of the opera with first singer Tarja Turunen.
I know your on the Wacken concert, but check out Marko singing in the cover/tribute to Pink Floyd's "High Hopes"
Yes, definitely that one!
Welcome to the world of Marko!!!! Floor and Marko singing together is mana from Heaven
This is why people are so excited for you to get to Ghost River and Romanticide, because of how great Marko is in them 😅
Btw, girl watching right here, but you really don't have to behave, it's more fun when you don't 🤘
Adding my vote for Ghost River, Romanticide, and then for a twist, Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembly 2015. Both Marco and Floor singing, with a showcase of how vocally gifted Floor is. That woman is a Viking Goddess who can do ANYTHING.
And everdream...
EVERY SONG from this SEMINAL & LEGENDARY concert is GOLD and better than the originals ! You are entering the addiction zone ,even after this concert you have not even seen 20% of the experience and amazement !
If you want more Marko, listen to Phantom of the Opera by Nightwish. He hits notes female singers have trouble hitting!
Marko "Marco" Hietala is true pioneer of Finnish Heavy Metal, he started band with his brother Zachary beginning of 80's called Purgatory what later became Tarot, he is "was" very much involved everything that happened in Finnish and lots of European metal music since. Man is real beast.

Welcome to the nightwish ARMY continue with waken open air!!!!!
the Nightwish Army is here and loving it
Next up is "She is My Sin" and forget Floor and Marko in this song for it's all about Jukka the drummer playing fangs out in God Mode.
You can never forget about Floor and Marco lol. Agreed though Jukka is an octopus with more 2 arms and legs lol
He is insanely good in that one!
The moment when reactors realize that Nightwish had 2 of the best metal singers in the world full stop during this unforgettable concert. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.
The whole show is legendary, the band is next level, Floor is the next level of the next level, totally from another dimension. And she's so beautiful and hot, it's not fair 🤣😍❤

I've seen this show both one by one and live stream numerous times with reactors. An have both CDs of this concert. Never gets old.
Oh you are in for a treat: She’s My Sin, Ghost River, Everdream, I Want My Tears Back, Romanticide, Amaranth, Song Of Myself, Last Ride Of The Day. I’m sure you will them love all!
I have seen so many reactions now to Nightwish live songs... (Fuck Covid, Fuck my Life :-D)
You two are hands down the most enjoyable reactors I have found so far...
Keep it up!
„What is this band?“ the best live and symphonic metal band in the world🤷🏼♀️
happy to see your enjoying it.
Nightwish have been my absolute favourite band along with another band somewhat similar called Epica (They are slightly heavier and you NEED to check them out too) and they do not have ANY songs that I dislike or skip over, period. I absolutely love watching you guys fall in love with them, like I did. 😍
Four songs in, and the best ones are still to come. :o)
After the long layoff, you guys are ROLLING now!
He won their version of the Masked Singer
Watching them falling down the rabbit hole, song by song, and I'm 😈 knowing what's yet to come.
Guys I’m not a metal fan in any way shape or form and there’s not a single track from Wacken 13 that I don’t love. Ok it took me awhile to get into the heavier stuff but that’s only due to the fact I’ve never been into that. You really have just scratched the surface and will not be disappointed
Your lives will never be the same again. :)
Welcome to Nigjtwish only started you soo lucky 😁 Unbelievable
Ever dream displays Marco's voice very well if you want to hear more. Also Romanticide and Ghost River as mentioned below.
It became from your favorit band to your new obsession hahaha and yes i love metellica too but this is next level stuff
I am here with your journey !
Nightwish at Wacken 2013 is just a legend !

Easy easy - Nightwish actually have 3!! Awesome singers 😁
You lucky guys have a lot, coming your way - just wait!!
Great reaction from you 👍 🤘 🤘
most talented band in the world. just love em
You're totally right, NIGHTWISH with Floor does not have a bad song! Only one is better than the other! Keep rocking it out boys!
Excited for them to hear a song where Marco is the lead vocalist.... The Islander or Kiss while your lips are still red might break them
Nightwish have quite many songs where Floor and Marko sings together and it is really joy too see/heard them together on these live performances.
Also there are some songs where Marko is leading vocalist and Floor takes care back vocals.
It is also worth to check solo album from Marko, here is his song "Stones"
ruclips.net/video/ifc3gBsM6B0/видео.html
Can't wait for more 😊🤘
Yours is an Empty Hope... she growls. Master Passion Greed, not live, but one of their heaviest, angriest tracks. Phantom of the Opera, 'Viking" stealing the show, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, The Greatest Show on Earth.. and many many more good songs
Hey, you should definitely check out shudder before the beautiful wembley and yours is an empty hope wembley 2015 Floor growling here, and devil and the deep dark ocean and slaying the dreamer and elan beunos Aires live show 2019, awesome 😎
Another great song for Marko is......While Your lips are still Red....and their cover of Megadeth.......Symphony of Destruction.....and the cherry on top.......Master Passion Greed (this one is not played live but is still a a really awesome song)
That was hella entertaining, as usual🤘🏻Can't wait for the rest! For some reason I'm really giddy for Ever Dream🙌🏻
The crowdsurfers are a sacrifice to the band.
One of their big hits from 2004. Do I sense a man crush developing? "She is my Sin" next and Marko introduces Floor to the Wacken audience. See you then my friends. Peace.
We live in North America, so we get fed the generic crap from our stifling music industry. Thanks to youtube we get to discover the rest of the world.
Yesss!!!!
Thanks RUclips!! 😁
To experience Marko the best way: "High Hopes" the Nightwish cover of / tribute to Pink Floyds famous song.
Great reaction you haven't seen nothing yet be prepared it's going to be a long ride 🤘🤘
We gonna stick for sure.
Hells yea! Thanks for the support!🤘

You've heard what radiostations and record labels allowed you to hear.
After Wacken you can do Wembley as well. Nightwish never disappoints.
I hope to see on your channel reactions to the songs of Diana Ankudinova. This is a singer with an amazing voice, who has covers of the songs "Human"," Wicked game","Take on Me". She also has her own songs.
Listen to *Diana* *Ankudinova* , she will be able to really surprise you! 💎💎💎💥💯👋👍
"I´m in love with my lust , turning angelwings to dust"......I just love that shit!!! The way she feels down that mic stand reminds me of how lucky Hannes (Drummer of Sabaton) is marrying her. Well done Karl Hannes Dahl. As he said...."she liked pantera she liked whiskey, and she wanted to share a cigar with me, .....so I had to marry her......and I did!" That is just huge balls!
Love the fact you’re working your way thru Wacken. Just a bit of a suggestion, skip to Buenos Aires 2019 for “I want my Tears Back”. Wacken version is great, probably better audio, but Buenos has more crowd interaction. If already done ignore and continue on.
nooooooooo
Nope stick with Wacken. BA is fantastic as well but would be silly to skip to another show for one song
Ah, loving this all the way! 🖤🤘🏻
You guys are so screwed! 😂 You're gonna be hooked FOR LIFE! I know i am 😁🤘
Maybe after Wacken you could check out some songs from the Buenos Aires show. Especially Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean and Slaying the Dreamer.
Wait till you here the bass players vocals (Marko) on EVERDREAM from the same concert, he keeps up with Floor really well 🤘
for POWER singing : Ever Dream Live wacken 2013 .
to hear her growl : Yours is a Empty hope.
also check out her cover of : Alone
Floor is Dutch!
and it's Floor and not fluur.
her name sounds the same as the floor to you in english.
as in "wet floor" as it says on those maintenance signs.
that was also a joke by one of the band members for giving her such a sign .
with kind regards Hollandduck from the Netherlands
1A and 1B...Nightwish and Therion best groups ever. ALL time. I just turned 65.
now, you must see I WANT MY TEARS BACK - live BUENOS AIRES dvd (ft the best crowd in all the galaxy) and the song SANCTA TERRA of the band EPICA live version ft FLOOR
They truly are mind blowingly talented.
6:55 (gleefully rubs his hands together waiting for them to experience Romanticide... which is much, MUCH later in the concert) >:]
Floor is great 👍🤩🤘
But I like Marko's Voice 😍👏👏👏
Look at the Phantom of the Opera with Tarja, fantastic and High Hopes only with Marko, awesome 👌👌👌🙏💋
Ja if you have not heard Marko before you are in for a real surprise, Floor ist actually Marko's back up singer..
After Wacken you can check out Tampere 2015 and Buenos Aires 2018. You have a lot of work ahead of you! Try out Floor's best friend Simone Simons with "Epica" a Dutch Metalband. Start with Consign to Oblivion, live in Zenith, Paris or anything from there "Retrospect" concert with full (70 people) Orkestra and Choir. Just awesome...
When you guys finish the Wacken show, I suggest you to check "end of an era" with Tarja, first NW singer. And of course Marko with baby viking beard!
AWWW WISSH IIIIIII HAAAAAAD ANNN ANNNNGEL . :DDD
In case you weren't yet aware nit a single song on this set list was originally made for Floor.
You guys kill me, hilarious! Keep it up!
See why everyone said there’s not a bad song from this show? 😁
You will love Ghost River from Wacken. 😄🤟🏻
If you haven't thought about it or put it in the schedule, I'll add my voice for ROMANTICIDE for Markos voice (viking dude)
I've been trying to find a Nightwish song that is just ok!, with not success! I think it's the only band I love every single song!
FYI Marko won the Finnish version of the Masked Singer
🤔 You want heavier? Try the band Epica and the live songs, the essence of silence, consign to oblivion, Kingdom of heaven. Epica is a Dutch band the singer Simone Simons and Floor are friends there's even a performance with the two of them together ( Sancta Terra and in the same show they also do Stabat Matar from Pergolesi!). Btw, don't stop doing Nightwish they are awsome just like Epica. Love your reactions!!! 😁
Im a bit late to the party here on your channel as a Nightwish fan but ...
Welcome to the phenomenon that is the genre of Symphonic metal and welcome to the Nightwish Army!!
This was the Wacken Open Air Festival Concert back in 2013, and there were over 82,000 people at this concert. the current singer is from the Netherlands, and a majority of the band members are from Finland, although the woodwinds player is from England. They released their first album in 1996.
SO WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC ACTUALLY IS BAND NIGHTWISH?
Nightwish is actually one of the groups credited with the CREATION of the Metal Sub-genre of Symphonic Metal (according to Wikipedia!). Symphonic Metal in general only borrows the hard driving double kick drums, and the hard grungy style guitars and bass from Metal. However, in SYMPHONIC METAL the guitar is not the primary focal point, it is in fact the keyboards and their movie-scorish sounding orchestral sound. The keyboard player Tuomas Holopainen (first name pronounced as Too-oh-mas) is the composer of all of the music arrangements and is the leader of the group. He is a personal huge lover of movie scores, which is where a lot of the movie-scorish style sound of the keyboards comes from (which is the primary focal point of ALL of Nightwish’s music instrumentally). In Symphonic Metal 90-95% of all Symphonic Metal bands are all female fronted. Currently only Kamelot, Serenity, and a hand full of other Symphonic Metal bands even have male singers, and they are normally referred to as Symphonic Power Metal. The female fronted bands are the ones usually referred to over in Europe as ‘Symphonic Metal’. The most popular Symphonic Metal bands are Nightwish, Within Temptation, Epica, and Kamelot. When Symphonic Metal first started the female lead singers used an operatic style of singing, but as the Genre has evolved over the last 20+ years in the UK since Nightwish came long in 1996, they have adopted more of a contemporary style of singing like Floor uses currently.
Floor Jansen is the 3rd and current Lead Singer since Nightwish released its first album in 1996, and she is from the Netherlands. Keep in mind when Floor did the Wacken Open Air in 2013 concert, she had not been with Nightwish for very long, she was actually a FILL-IN for this particular tour. Nightwish was in the middle of the Imaginearum World Tour when they parted ways with their SECOND Lead Singer Anette Olzen (from Sweden), and Tuomas (pronounced as Too-oh-mas) called Floor and asked her if she could learn their entire set list in 48 hours and then fill-in for them for the rest of the tour. Within the next few short months, the band posted their first Official Live Performance video since they fired their first lead singer Tarja Turunen at the end of November 2005. During Anette's entire tenure with the band, Nightwish did not post ONE single solitary live performance video on their official RUclips channel. Hmmm? Curious?
At the end of this Imaginearum World Tour (just a few months later!), (As Floor tells the story in an interview) the Band pulled both Floor Jansen and Troy Donokley aside and asked them to be official members of the band. Floor said both her and Troy both had tears in their eyes. Troy had been a guest musician with the band on such official videos like The Islander, but never an official member of the band. The rest as they say ... is history.
CURRENT BAND MEMBERS
• Tuomas Holopainen - keyboards, piano, is the primary musical composer for all arrangements Is also who formed the band, and is the leader of the group.
• Emppu Vuorinen - All guitars (been with the band since its inception) - (His name is pronounced Ehm-poo)
• Marko Hietala - bass, male vocals, acoustic guitar (very recently this year retired from public life)
• Troy Donockley - uilleann pipes, tin whistle, low whistle, guitars, bouzouki, bodhrán, backing vocals
• Floor Jansen - lead vocals (Floor is Nightwish current and THIRD Lead Singer)
• Kai Hahto - drums (NOT APART OF THE BAND YET WHEN THE WACKEN 2013 CONCERT WAS FILMED - Kai was hand picked by the groups original drummer Jukka Nevalainen to replace him when he had to stepped down for medical reasons listed below. Kai is a personal friend of Jukka’s, as well as was Jukka's drum teacher)
FORMER BAND MEMBERS SEEN IN THIS CONCERT AT THE WACKEN OPEN AIR FESTIVAL FROM THE YEAR 2013:
• Jukka Nevalainen - drums ( original drummer from 1997-2014 and is who you see playing drums in the Wacken Open Air Festival Show from 2013. He had to step down for severe medial reasons, and handpicked his replacement. Jukka nearly died from a period of 2 straight years of severe insomnia, and had to be hospitalized because of it. Even though he stepped down as drummer, according to Toumas, he is the CEO of the Nightwish Corporation now. So he is still very much a part of Nightwish.)
Other Former Band Members
NOT seen in this video:
• Sami Vänskä - bass (1998-2001)
• Tarja Turunen - vocals (Nightwish FIRST Singer for the first 10 years of Nightwish existence from 1996-2005)
• Anette Olzon - vocals (Nightwish SECOND singer, from Sweden, from 2007-2012)
These are some songs I would recommend to listening to:
1. Poet And The Pendulum - This is one of the corner stone songs for this band. I would RESEARCH THIS SONG BEFORE REACTING TO IT. I would also not do this one right away, I would build up to this and get a few Nightwish songs under your belt before doing it. As stated above Floor Jansen is their THIRD Singer. Their first singer sang entirely in the operatic style and was Nightwish Singer for TEN YEARS. Her last concert was THE END OF AN ERA DVD concert filmed the end of October of 2005. Immediately after the conclusion of the END OF AN ERA concert Tarja received a letter called "The Open Letter" from the band telling her they were parting ways with her. Poet And the Pendulum is about the emotional heart wrenching experience of events that lead up to that decision, and the backlash from fans after ward. So this song is extremely INTENSELY emotional. Doing your research into this before hand will help you understand why the song is so emotional and why it was written in 5 acts like it was.

2. Greatest Show On Earth - I would RESEARCH THIS SONG BEFORE REACTING TO IT. I would also not do this one right away, I would build up to this and get a few Nightwish songs under your belt before doing it. This song is about the creation of the universe, the big bang, and evolution. Be ready because this is a 20 min thrill ride that only feels like 3 or 4 minutes long. Also, I think its a good idea to look for the Tampere Finland show because of a surprise during the performance I dont want to ruin for you and it has lyrics so you can follow along. Look for the one with Lyrics and Fireworks both.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/bl6lUfIMkGM/видео.html
3. Ever Dream - my absolute all-time favorite Nightwish song. The most high energy song they’ve ever done in my opinion. The Wacken 2013 concert is your best introduction into this one.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/1Xi4n8dJcF8/видео.html
4. Romanticide - Be prepared because this is one of their heavier songs, and Floor and Marko both do some singing in this, and this one is an amazing thrill ride of a song. The Wacken 2013 concert is your best introduction into this one.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/zz_7OCCQlXs/видео.html
5. Yours Is An Empty Hope - Maybe do this one from the Tampere Finland Show off of the Vehicle of Spirit DVD because Floors back ground vocals behind Marko on the chorus is amazing. Be prepared because behind Marcos vocals on the chorus, is Floor growling. You read it correctly, yes she really CAN do everything!!.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XtXqUNB8zrU/видео.html
6. I Want My Tears Back - You will get to see another member of Nightwish Troy Donokley who is their multi-instrument band member. He plays a variety of things in different songs, and in this one plays a variation of the bag pipe called the uilleann pipe.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/ga-hR7CYbwQ/видео.html
7. Elan - (this is an extremely up beat high energy song that just leaves you feeling good). The Wembley Arena Show is a great one to react to.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XcwrwRKPaEg/видео.html
8. Alpenglow - this is JUST a feel good song which will up lift your spirits. This was such a fun song in the Wembley Arena Show from the Vehicle of Spirit DVD.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/FrJvKZNEh7g/видео.html
9. Nemo - Nemo is from a Latin word which means no one or nobody. It is about a time in Toumas life when he felt his direction in life was aimless, and without real direction. It’s an awesome song and a HUGE favorite of long time fans. This song was originally written during the Tarja Era (the first singers era).
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/dR1gH5aQWBU/видео.html
10. 10th Man Down - This is from the Buenos Aires Show in 2018 during the DECADES WORLD TOUR.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/Px1YJ0EdNAI/видео.html
11. Last Ride Of The Day - This song was the second to the last song for the Wembley Arena Show from the Vehicle Of Spirit Blu-ray/DVD. It is simply one kick ass song.
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/CdfhJmkZRbU/видео.html
12. 7 Days To The Wolves - This is another kick ass song from the second singers era, Anette Olzen, and I would do this from the Wembley Arena Show. You will also get to see Troy the woondwinds player on stage for this one!!
Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/XvsfwAPbWXc/видео.html
Welcome to the party! We've got tons more to come and see loving it all so far. Thanks for all the info and we hope you stick around!
I don't know how many times I have heard reactors say, "why have we never heard of this band". Ill answer you now...we are all fucked over by the record companies pushing 99% utter shit, that's why.
If you want something a little bit heavier then try ‘Yours Is an Empty Hope’ Floor growls in the chorus
try NIGHTWISH - Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean - Live In Buenos Aires and High Hopes cover....
"The Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" from Buenos Aires is a fantastic next step in order to experience their heavier and especially their faster side. And Marco becomes vocally Hannibal Lecter.
Another band you need to check out is Epica. Start with Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith in Paris
Its funny that he say that the level is at the Roof when they still have not heared there A list. Like pendulum, shoemaker, and.. hmm. Forgot the namn of the last one i was thinking about
Check out ghost river floor growls in that one
And you still have to discover Epica!!
So I guess you guys haven't heard High Hopes yet? Pink Floyd tribute.
Please, make a reaction to the songs of the singer Diana Ankudinova.
Song of Myself
5:13 LMAO I love that part. You guys should check some Epica! Consign to Oblivion, design your universe, unleashed etc!👏
Next "GHOST RIVER"
React or check yourself Crewish (Nightwish crewmembers band) version this song, it is something you like, I think, late -70's early -80's style.
You want more Marco? Go check Tarot - Wings of darkness (official video)
Add to the list of metal women you've been missing out on:
Noora Louhimo of Battle Beast (react to "Black Ninja" then "Bringer of Pain" for a sampling)
Simone Simons of Epica
If you guys want to more Marco you should check Ever Dream and The Phantom of the opera with first singer Tarja Turunen.
