LoL Floor was busy in the years between Waken and this concert. They finished the world tour, she moved to Finland (started learning Finnish), met her Swedish husband (drummer for Sabaton), made another album, moved to Sweden (started learning Swedish), got married, had a child, did several cameo performances with other bands on albums & videos, toured the new album, did a rock album with a friend as the band Northward, did a collaboration project with Ayreon, toured this decades tour, and appeared on a Dutch Television show for weeks where she sang in 4 diff languages & several diff genres of music - blowing everyone away. 😀 And all the other things I know I missed like some solo touring in Holland, etc. She is a force of nature!
Dead boys poem from this concert is a brilliant powerful song I can also recommend 10th man down another excellent rock song great reaction yes floor looked and sounded incredible 👏 🙌 ❤ 👌
Since you like Marko‘s voice you might wanna check out „The Islander“ live at Tampere or „While your lips are still red“ live version (I forgot which one it is). They also did a cover of Pink Flyod „high hopes“ and one of my favorite Marko songs ever is „Endlessness“ from their latest Album (sadly no live version 😢)
What a mind blowing phenomenal performance ..whooo love it ..an love your fabulous beautiful energy as always thanku so much love and God bless always x
Troy was playing the Irish Uilleann Pipes they have a bellows driven air flow under the right elbow that he pumps while playing and the air carries into the holding bag under the left arm .
When I need to motivate myself to do housework, such as washing dishes, this song NEVER fails to pump me up. I freaking wash those dishes like a beast. Hey, whatever works.
The Uilleann (ill-en or ill-yen) pipes that troy is playing are the Irish version of bagpipes that uses a bellows to inflate the bag instead of blowing into it. The bellow is squeezed with the elbow. Uilleann is the Gaelic word for elbow. I love Emppu laughing at Floor dancing all over the stage in this version. And, yes, Marko has an awesome voice as well. He sings lead on some songs as well. (The Islander, While My Lips Are Still Red, their cover/tribute of Pink Floyd's High Hopes) Also on drums here is Kai Hahto. He took over when Jukka stepped away in 2014 due to health issues caused by severe insomnia.
These are actually uilleann pipes - but don't worry - I got the name of this instrument thanks to the Nightwish army 😁 This is my favourite version of this song - so much fun and energy! 🤘😆 great reaction!👍btw.from the same concert I also recommend Slaying The Dreamer 🤘😎
Concur, Troy plays anything he get his hands on, sings as well, those Irish elbow pipes are well hard to play. think he said you have to be a little insane to play them.
The guy playing the Uilleann pipes (Irish bagpipes) is Troy…he is the sixth member of the band. He became a full time member at the same time Floor did, but they hadn’t incorporated him into many of their songs at the time of the Wacken 2013 show. As you watch songs from ire recent shows you’ll see/ a lot more of him. He is a multi-instrumentalist…if it’s an instrument he plays it. In a recent interview, he was asked if there was anything he couldn’t play as well as he’d like and his answer was, “ice hockey.” He also sings, as you may have noticed him doing three part harmonies with Floor and Marko. Speaking of Marko, since you like his voice, check out While Your Lips Are Still Red live at Wembley, or The Islander live at Tampere…you’ll be surprised.
This was actually 2018 but the DVD was released in 2019. The BA concert is fantastic. Great performances, great audience and a superb setlist. Dead Boys Poem, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Gethsemane, Elan, Elvenjig/Elvenpath... Floor at 6' obviously looks tall with her 4" heels! Costume custom made for her size by Royal Black Couture in Austria, one off - they promised not to make another. This was 13th in the set. They started with Swanheart - more Troy! Troy, playing Uilleann pipes is a core band member and plays a huge part playing these Irish pipes, Irish Low whistle, tin whistles guitar, bazouki and singing too. Elvenjig/Elvenpath from this concert for more. My Walden from Tampere also.
This one gives you a little taste of their Celtic rock vibes. This is a great show as well. It was not the opener, but the Argentinian fans are the best. You totally understand Emppu's attitude for the song over his ego. Loved it Skullz. Well done. See you again very soon. Peace.
This concert is a pure joy to watch and listen. Quite a bit different than Wacken, in this one they do a few oldies that cover a wider spectrum of Nightwish music. Most notable tracks: "Dead boy's poem", "Devil and the deep dark ocean", "Slaying the dreamer" and many more. Hope you do more from this one, also it's in my country. Cheers from Argentina!!!
Skullz...Another nice reaction, thank you. My favorite NW performance of any was at this concert. It is a ballad titled " Dead Boys Poem ". For me it is perfection, singing, music, sound, camera and Floor's emotional connection to the lyrics of Tuomas. Just sayin I like it. Be well.
Floor was recovering from illness in this show, but you can not hear it at all. If you want to hear Floor showcasing her vocal range, same venue: Devil and the deep dark ocean (with Marko as the bad guy). BTW her outfit is from Royal Black in Vienna
Thank you very many! Great reaction! If you liked this and Floor & Marko performance, you are going to love "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" live same place Buenos Aires. Troy is also the third singer. Check also Marko`s soolo "projects". Regards from Finland!
This performance always lifts my spirits. So glad that it also made you smile. To me, Emppu gets his time to shine at GETHSEMANE from the same venue because he does nearly impossible runs on an electric guitar.
Fortunately, you chose the Buenos Aires version, which is definitely the most fun to watch. Though some will alert you to the wonderful back & forth stage pranking between Emppu and Floor during the Wacken version. This one is so energizing, even with Floor still recovering there from a bad flu she got earlier on that tour.
The crowd : OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÁ... OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ; CADA DÍA TE QUIERO MÁS...OOOHHH!!! SOY DE NIGHTWISH; ES UN SENTIMIENTO, NO PUEDO PARAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÁ ... OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ; EVERY DAY I LOVE YOU MORE ... OOOHHH !!! I AM FROM NIGHTWISH; IT'S A FEELING, I CAN'T STOP! ). The sixth member : Troy Donockley "The Bard" (is an English composer and multi-instrumentalist most known for his playing of Uilleann pipes, tin whistle, vocals, guitar, keyboards, bass guitar, pump organ, bouzouki, cittern, bodhrán, mandola, harmonium, aerophone). Donockley was born in Workington, Cumberland; his parents were members of a band called Travelling Country. At the age of 16, Troy joined them, playing at many venues in West Cumbria. His father's record collection was broad and gave his son a love of classical, rock, country as well as traditional music. He is a multi-instrumentalist and a master of the Uilleann pipes. His ambition as a teenager was to travel the world as a musician, but he hated "empty pop created by cynical twerps". The strangeness of the sound of the Uilleann pipes enabled him to become a session musician with prog-rockers The Enid in 1987 on their album 'The Seed and the Sower'. Donockley's first appearance with Nightwish was on their 2007 release, Dark Passion Play, as a guest musician, providing some whistles and pipes to the songs "The Islander", "Last of the Wilds", and "Meadows of Heaven". He also joined them on select shows of the subsequent tour and appeared in the music video for "The Islander". In 2011, Donockley appeared as a guest on Imaginaerum, providing whistles, pipes, and vocals. He joined Nightwish again on the Imaginaerum World Tour, and also appeared on the band's concert DVD 'Showtime, Storytime'. He also appears in the Imaginaerum film from 2012 as a stage illusionist. Following the conclusion of the Imaginaerum World Tour, Donockley was made a full-time member of Nightwish in October 2013. He provides the main vocals for Nightwish's single ‘Harvest’, released in 2020. This was unusual for the band, as main vocals were usually provided by Floor Jansen. The Song : "I Want my Tears back" song is number 13 out of 21 songs and this song is about longing childhood memories (This whole Concert is one Energy Blast from start to finish). For me this is epic PARTY SONG 🤩, you just can't sit still , you have to move . Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia 🤘😎🤘
Hey bro!!! Great reaction!!! Troy, the guy with the bagpipes plays also flute, guitarr, mandoline, and sings. Please keep listening to Nightwish!! . Greettings from Argentina!! Sorry for my english.
Nightwish Army Chicago Brigade reporting in! Fun note, is was reported (I forget where) Floor had the flu at this concert. If true, wow! Emmpu is an amazing guitarist, and he always does his solos artfully. He fits his solo to the song, not Tuomas fitting the song to his solo. The man can shred, but is so great a musician, he doesn't all the time.
Floor was recovering from the flu she got earlier on this South American Tour. She still had some slight troubles with her chest voice, so she relied more on her head voice this concert. She seems to get this always in South America. In 2012 on their first tour it was the same.
Floor has said (if anyone knows where, please quote) that she looks up ideas and inspirations for her costumes and then finds the people who made them or can create them (this outfit wasn't created for her, it's a creation from Royal Black Couture) but they later worked together for the outfits for the new album / world tour.
Amazing song, amazing crowd.. I skip this song for the first five month of my discovering of Nightwish. Maybe for the same reason of you. But it's one of my favorite since! 🤟 Tx from Québec Canada 🇨🇦
Crowd stuns them with the football(soccer) chant what brings even more energy all of them and especially for real life super heroin looking Floor. Nice reaction män, again. Cheers from Finland 🇫🇮 🥶
Great reaction dude! Love how you enjoyed this! My favorites from this concert are: Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean Slaying The Dreamer ... Both songs heavy and a bit weird... Best wishes from Namibia
☹️+NIGHTWISH=🙂 And another Great Song from NIGHTWISH. It sounds AMAZING again as always. I think TROY also deserves a compliment. 👌👏 What he plays on his INSTRUMENTS is FANTASTIC. Donockley is a MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST👍 He plays Uilleann pipes, Tin whistle, Guitar, Keyboards, Bass Guitar, Pump Organ, Bouzouki, Cittern, Mandola, Harmonium and many more. I Love ❤️ NIGHTWISH🤘 Thank You Love ❤️ From the Netherlands 🙋🏼♀️🇳🇱
To really enjoy the talent of Marko and Emppu pls check High Hopes live ❤️. The whole band is unbelievably immensed in some very special and sad realm bc they're just going to say goodbye to their first singer. For me, mightbe the best rock performance ever
Greetings. Ummm, ok... Floor uses an Italian designer for her outfits, if I'm not mistaken. I do remember she mentioned her name in either one of her "Fan Friday" videos or one of her Livestreams which you can easily access in her TY channel, "Floor Jansen". I'm surprised you didn't comment on Troy's vocal harmonies when Marko was singing on the 2nd and 3rd pre-choruses. lol Troy uses the Uilleann Pipes in other songs too, including "The Greatest Show On Earth". It's just a beautiful sound. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and yes, Floor has gotten quite comfortable in her role with the band. She is currently in the process of recording a solo album and performing solo shows along with continuing the tour with Nightwish. Are you up for one more from this concert? The song I will suggest also has an official video as it was the first single from Floor's first Nightwish studio album "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" released in April 2015. I'll leave it up to you to decide which one you wanna do, the official video or the live in Buenos Aires. I will leave the links in that order. Feels good knowing this was actually written for Floor. Official Music Video: ruclips.net/video/zPonioDYnoY/видео.html Official Live: ruclips.net/video/8KOPvuKYIZA/видео.html Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘 PS. Sorry, the name of the song is "Élan".
New angle looks good, but do whatever you’re comfortable with. Being surprised with something new as you make your way on the Nightwish journey is one of the great things about it, and there will be a few more surprises to come. Actually, this was the 11th of a 17-song set. Marko is indeed awesome. Sadly he stepped away from the band about a year ago. Troy (playing the Uillean pipes) is filling in on some of his vocals on tour, and they have a new bassist for the tour. You might want to check out Kiss While Your Lips are Still Red, for an example where he sings lead. Enjoy your journey!
remember that Floor is about 6-5 or 6-6 in those heels, yet, she worked the stage big time.....you're seeing the 6th member of Nightwish, Troy Donockley, who's English, but plays "pipes, whistles, and strings": this instrument are Ullian pipes, which are Irish bagpipes.....they self inflate, without a breaths in by the player..... also, Argentine rock audiences are bat-shit crazy.....
Good lord, no she's not lol She's 6ft, and those boots are about a 2 1/2 - 3" inch heel. There's your math. Still incredibly impressive, much like her lung capacity, so there's no need to exaggerate. Her Tampere heels are the highest I've seen her in and they look to be about 4+". THOSE are insanely high and ain't no way she's bouncing around in those.
I enjoy your Nightwish reactions a lot :) The way your face lights up is great to see. Watch The Poet and the Pendulum and Wembley to be truly amazed! It's a Masterpiece.
I would also recommend The Islander from the Tampere show for Marco's voice. Also Ave Maria with Floor and Marco is heavenly. More recently Floor had a solo show and she uploaded Face your demons. I am truly amazed by this woman and I know she can sing anything but she still surprised me with the way she sang that song. Also I looove your reaction videos!
I want my concerts back. they know Floor back when she was in After Forever when that band was the warm up band for Nightwish on tour in Europe in 2002 ?
Great reaction 👍👌...this was the 13th song of the show and it's so amazing how much energy Floor has because this concert is over 2 hours and her voice never let her down, she's amazing, but.....Nightwish itself is superior and with Floor they are Premier Leage and nr.1 in Symphonic Metal.
Got a Love the South American fans. My bucket list incudes seeing Nightwish live in Buenos Aries and Tampere. Both crowds are amazing. If you think the band has peaked checkout songs from their most recent album. Tuomas really challenged all the band members. Checkout Shoemaker (Lyric Video) and How's the Heart (Planet Rock Acoustic video) to hear some amazing singing. Also Endlessness for Marko taking the lead and killing it. For more from this concert Dead Boy's Poem and Slaying the Dreamer. For more Marko singing lead The Islander (Tampere concert) and While Your Lips are Still Red (Wembley). For more Troy's Uilleann pipes, Last of the Wilds (Waken), Elvenjig/Elvenpath (Columbia concert) and the Moors section of All the Works of Nature That Adorn the World.
From Wacken 2013 - over the Endless Forms most Beautiful tour - and to this Decades Tour - Floor evolved. Tuomas managed to challenge her in her lower register, and she also got free "hands" to interpret the old songs they brought up, to her more metal style and incredible voice and power. In this Buenos Aires 2018 concert you will experience some incredible performances from her (even though she wasn't completely on top due to a flue she was recovering from. In "Devil and the deep dark Ocean" - she shows incredible lounge capacity among other spectacular things. In "Dead Boy's Poem" - she spellbinds the audience completely And - in "Carpenter" - you hear Troy doing lead singing, until Floor takes over. Troy is a brilliant singer also. Nowadays Floor and Troy has divided Marko's singing parts between them. I my opinion, was the Decades Tour (this Buenos Aires 2018 concert) a better tour than the Imaginarium (Wacken 2013) - Floor, Marko and Troy were completely in sync, doing incredible singing - and Emppu is shining more here than in the old days - especially his cooperation with Floor are phenomenal - they simply loves each other. But they all do - and that chemistry on stage, affects the audience. In this song, Floor actually chases Emppu to get him to dance along, and he hides behind Troy on his stand (it can be seen on some fan videos out there, both from this concert, but also from some European concerts) Don't worry - Floor hasn't peaked yet - she is constantly improving and are completely insanely phenomenal nowadays.. On their newest album - she shows voice and breath techniques beyond belief... Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘
This concert, at least what I've seen of it, is just an ass kicker. They know how to part in Buenos Aires. Florida Nightwish Brigade checking. Thanks for checking this out Skullz.
On the "new angle".... I rather like this new angle. The right side of the screen (for viewers) is more like a blank canvas in which to put the concert/performer insert. The guitar on the wall over your shoulder is very nicely placed, and enhances your musical background without becoming cluttered with your whole inventory. The dark disc of the mic plus the darker headphones is also a nice contrast against the white walls. My artist eye approves.
Buenos Aires gig is pure gold! So many awesome songs there… 10th man down, Kinslayer and I think Ghost Love Score is even better from this gig. The ending is soooo good and a bit different from the Wacken one. Evolved one might say.
This is the best performance of this song...so much fun! Before Floor joined the band, Marko had a larger vocal role, esp w Anette (just based on what I've seen and heard...someone correct me if I'm wrong) bc her live voice was quite 'thin'. Troy and his pipes were at Wacken...but you get more footage of him about 2015. He also added a 3rd harmony to the pre-chorus.
FYI another time when the band fools everyone just like Ghost this was the 13th song of the set. Amazingly they did 21 songs ... the last two ... Greatest Show On Earth at 17 minutes and then right into Ghost Love Score at 10 minutes. The show was two hours long. For future reference you should kick back with your favorite beverage and watch the whole thing. I would wait until after you've reacted to the majority of the songs ... but man watching the whole concert is just stunning. Big 4k screen, great speakers turned up and you're almost there the production on the video and sound is that good. ruclips.net/video/ox4C3sok-SI/видео.html
I think she usually helps design her costumes, but found that one online and sent in her measurements. It suits her well. :) for Marco's voice, comments pretty much covered it, I think, but if I think of something I'll let ya know. Thanks!
NW family want to share the JOY of NW. We watch every reactor hoping to find kindred. By now we have heard more than enough lectures on glottal folds, mouth position, look-at-me analysis with method actor bug eyed reactions.,... . THANK YOU for your infectious joyous reactions. We mostly want to share to bless others...not be lectured ad infinitum about key changes etc.. We get it, we got it. Does it sound "shallow" to say we can divide people up into those who get NW...and those who do a GLS or two to build subs...but don't dive in? Yeah...we can!
You should check "Wintersun - Sons Of Winter And Stars (TIME I Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios) REMASTER" as the current drummer & bassist of Nightwish is from there and they're just unbelievable in that song and the other members are on par with'em 🤘
Outfits of Floor on stage: ruclips.net/video/hfQGb4n7bQk/видео.html (she decide herself what to wear - she has the ideas, but to visualize it there is another one…) 👍🏆
You can see what Emppu can do with his Guitar in “High Hopes” a cover from Pink Floyd! For me this is not a cover, is more a tribute to Pink Floyd, there are two solos from Emppu and Marko's voice in this song is absolutely amazing! Thank you!
The sixth member of Nightwish, Troy Donockley from the UK, doesn't appear in every song and he plays all sorts of whistles, pipes, guitars, bouzouki etc etc.whatever is required by Tuomas. These uilleann (elbow) pipes are incredibly difficult to play as level of coordination necessary to pump bellows under right elbow, compress bag with left elbow and finger the pipes and he's singing in this one !!
Nice seeing you again! NIGHTWISH AND MEGADETH?? 🔥 MARCO SINGING HEAVY SOLO? 🤘🏻 My suggestion is another cover of them, which we HARDLY see on RUclips.🇳🇱 And if you like a HEAVY Nightwish sound, this will be a very nice one! 🔥🤘🏻😎 Marco is singing solo on this one. Check out their cover of Megadeth, symphony of destruction. (Montreal 2004) AND A HEAVY SIREN FLOOR & MARCO? The second also hardly on RUclips, is a heavy Siren, The Siren performed live of course by Floor Jansen, and also again a very good singing Marco🔥❤️🤘🏻 Enjoy it, and I with you!
I told in one channel whe i met Floor she was taller than me. With heels tho. I'm 192cm and she was avout 2.01cm. Then someone commented that Floir 1.83cm. If she would be that Marco would tower over her. Marco is over 180cm.
Argentinian crowd is always a joy, it's amazing to. Go to a concert in Buenos Aires Man, it's time for you to check out The Phantom of the Opera and see the power of Tarja as well, I really like your reactions
u mentioned her being tall? 🤔 well she is about 6"1 foot tall but u have to add some more inches top of that depending what kinda boots/heels shes wearing on stage...so.. 😄🙃 # #ReactChannel #Skullz #NiceWork
LoL Floor was busy in the years between Waken and this concert. They finished the world tour, she moved to Finland (started learning Finnish), met her Swedish husband (drummer for Sabaton), made another album, moved to Sweden (started learning Swedish), got married, had a child, did several cameo performances with other bands on albums & videos, toured the new album, did a rock album with a friend as the band Northward, did a collaboration project with Ayreon, toured this decades tour, and appeared on a Dutch Television show for weeks where she sang in 4 diff languages & several diff genres of music - blowing everyone away. 😀 And all the other things I know I missed like some solo touring in Holland, etc.
She is a force of nature!
Wow! 🔥
Great reaction...amazing crowd...Nightwish is higher level. Floor and Marco amazing
Dead boys poem from this concert is a brilliant powerful song I can also recommend 10th man down another excellent rock song great reaction yes floor looked and sounded incredible 👏 🙌 ❤ 👌
Now you know why she is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇😇😇😇
Hail Nightwish
Since you like Marko‘s voice you might wanna check out „The Islander“ live at Tampere or „While your lips are still red“ live version (I forgot which one it is). They also did a cover of Pink Flyod „high hopes“ and one of my favorite Marko songs ever is „Endlessness“ from their latest Album (sadly no live version 😢)
I think 'While Your Lips Are Still Red' live at Wembley is the superior performance to choose. thumbs up for everything else you said!
I know it's not Nightwish, but I really like Marko's voice in Tides, from his own band, Tarot.
All great ideas
What a mind blowing phenomenal performance ..whooo love it ..an love your fabulous beautiful energy as always thanku so much love and God bless always x
Troy was playing the Irish Uilleann Pipes they have a bellows driven air flow under the right elbow that he pumps while playing and the air carries into the holding bag under the left arm .
That's very unique 💯
Not unique - pipes are common throughout Europe and many other parts of the world. So,e are inflated by mouth and others by bellow.
Thanks for this reaction. Nightwish is amazing! And you know what you are talking about.Respect.
thus song was actually the 12th in this concert. 🤟
Really?!?!? Damn, they got energy! 🤘
When I need to motivate myself to do housework, such as washing dishes, this song NEVER fails to pump me up. I freaking wash those dishes like a beast.
Hey, whatever works.
You are not alone brother! I clean the bathtub and the sink under the influence of Dark Chest of Wonders! I will try "I want my tears back" next time!
@@Sakpan74Gr And I might try Dark Chest of Wonders myself. Thanks for the suggestion.
Troy plays the Uilleann pipes amongst other things. He also has a beautiful singing voice. A musical genius.
It’s impossible to not bob and smile on this one.
The Uilleann (ill-en or ill-yen) pipes that troy is playing are the Irish version of bagpipes that uses a bellows to inflate the bag instead of blowing into it. The bellow is squeezed with the elbow. Uilleann is the Gaelic word for elbow.
I love Emppu laughing at Floor dancing all over the stage in this version.
And, yes, Marko has an awesome voice as well. He sings lead on some songs as well. (The Islander, While My Lips Are Still Red, their cover/tribute of Pink Floyd's High Hopes)

often, when there is Troy on the stage, and Floor and Marko sing together there is also Troy singing, like in this song
Nightwish's party song numero uno and such fun to watch.
Lets Gooo!!!
Aye, appreciate you stopping in Truth! 🔥🔥🔥
This is such a feel good song!! I just love the chemistry of the band. I have the biggest smile now :)
Floor has deffinitively become a true leader alongside Tuomas.This Lady has grown up as a person and as a artist.
Oh, and great of you to mention how good the mix was for this. A lot of band don't sound this good in the studio, let alone live!
This was actually 2018 but the DVD was released in 2019.
The BA concert is fantastic. Great performances, great audience and a superb setlist.
Dead Boys Poem, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Gethsemane, Elan, Elvenjig/Elvenpath...
Floor at 6' obviously looks tall with her 4" heels!
Costume custom made for her size by Royal Black Couture in Austria, one off - they promised not to make another.

It's not unfortunate that we left Wacken. Buenos Aires was a killer show too!

Cheers! 🤘
The happiness just swells within you in this song. Amazing
OK, you are ready for "Yours is an empty hope" live @ Wembley 2015
Skullz...Another nice reaction, thank you. My favorite NW performance of any was at this concert. It is a ballad titled " Dead Boys Poem ". For me it is perfection, singing, music, sound, camera and Floor's emotional connection to the lyrics of Tuomas. Just sayin I like it. Be well.

Such a fun song As for Marco he is a legend xx Thankyou.
Thank you very many! Great reaction! If you liked this and Floor & Marko performance, you are going to love "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" live same place Buenos Aires. Troy is also the third singer. Check also Marko`s soolo "projects". Regards from Finland!
love me some Nightwish!! enjoyed !! try another dif venue wembley 2015 yours is an empty hope- just listen closely to floor! keep em coming!
This performance always lifts my spirits. So glad that it also made you smile.
To me, Emppu gets his time to shine at GETHSEMANE from the same venue because he does nearly impossible runs on an electric guitar.
Oh, and I do prefer this camera angle. Maybe coz I love change 🙃
Thanks for the feedback on the new angle 💯 You have to remind me about GETHSEMANE when I'm down with Gabes list haha.
@@Skullzrapper I shall if my by then arthritis still lets me type 🤪
😂😂😂 I'll get there lol
Your smile says it ALL!! 😊
😁
Fortunately, you chose the Buenos Aires version, which is definitely the most fun to watch. Though some will alert you to the wonderful back & forth stage pranking between Emppu and Floor during the Wacken version. This one is so energizing, even with Floor still recovering there from a bad flu she got earlier on that tour.
Definitely check out while your lips are still red! Great reaction as usual my friend!!
Edit: I just seen the top comment!!! HIGH HOPES IS A MUST!!!
Uileann pipes btw! Not bagpipes!
What i really love about nightwish is that there are no egos involved
The crowd :
OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÁ... OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ; CADA DÍA TE QUIERO MÁS...OOOHHH!!! SOY DE NIGHTWISH; ES UN SENTIMIENTO, NO PUEDO PARAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ OLÁ ... OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ; EVERY DAY I LOVE YOU MORE ... OOOHHH !!! I AM FROM NIGHTWISH; IT'S A FEELING, I CAN'T STOP! ).
The sixth member :

The strangeness of the sound of the Uilleann pipes enabled him to become a session musician with prog-rockers The Enid in 1987 on their album 'The Seed and the Sower'.
Donockley's first appearance with Nightwish was on their 2007 release, Dark Passion Play, as a guest musician, providing some whistles and pipes to the songs "The Islander", "Last of the Wilds", and "Meadows of Heaven". He also joined them on select shows of the subsequent tour and appeared in the music video for "The Islander". In 2011, Donockley appeared as a guest on Imaginaerum, providing whistles, pipes, and vocals. He joined Nightwish again on the Imaginaerum World Tour, and also appeared on the band's concert DVD 'Showtime, Storytime'. He also appears in the Imaginaerum film from 2012 as a stage illusionist.
Following the conclusion of the Imaginaerum World Tour, Donockley was made a full-time member of Nightwish in October 2013.
He provides the main vocals for Nightwish's single ‘Harvest’, released in 2020. This was unusual for the band, as main vocals were usually provided by Floor Jansen.
The Song :
"I Want my Tears back" song is number 13 out of 21 songs and this song is about longing childhood memories (This whole Concert is one Energy Blast from start to finish).
For me this is epic PARTY SONG 🤩, you just can't sit still , you have to move .
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia 🤘😎🤘
Not even close to opening track they just have more energy than most if not all other bands. Great reaction.
Hey bro!!! Great reaction!!! Troy, the guy with the bagpipes plays also flute, guitarr, mandoline, and sings. Please keep listening to Nightwish!! . Greettings from Argentina!! Sorry for my english.
Greetings! And no worries, your English is excellent 💯
@@Skullzrapper Thanks bro. I really enjoy when someone listens good music and feels it. Even if is not your kind. Thanks again
Nightwish Army Chicago Brigade reporting in! Fun note, is was reported (I forget where) Floor had the flu at this concert. If true, wow! Emmpu is an amazing guitarist, and he always does his solos artfully. He fits his solo to the song, not Tuomas fitting the song to his solo. The man can shred, but is so great a musician, he doesn't all the time.
Floor was recovering from the flu she got earlier on this South American Tour. She still had some slight troubles with her chest voice, so she relied more on her head voice this concert. She seems to get this always in South America. In 2012 on their first tour it was the same.
Floor has said (if anyone knows where, please quote) that she looks up ideas and inspirations for her costumes and then finds the people who made them or can create them (this outfit wasn't created for her, it's a creation from Royal Black Couture) but they later worked together for the outfits for the new album / world tour.
Dude, you're soooo ready for devil and the deep dark ocean from this same concert. You'll freak
Amazing song, amazing crowd.. I skip this song for the first five month of my discovering of Nightwish. Maybe for the same reason of you. But it's one of my favorite since! 🤟 Tx from Québec Canada 🇨🇦
Crowd stuns them with the football(soccer) chant what brings even more energy all of them and especially for real life super heroin looking Floor.
Nice reaction män, again.
Cheers from Finland 🇫🇮 🥶
Marko is really good on '' master passion greed '' too, if you're interested to hear some nightwish without female vocals.
Great reaction dude! Love how you enjoyed this! My favorites from this concert are:
Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean
Slaying The Dreamer
... Both songs heavy and a bit weird...
Best wishes from Namibia
Appreciate it my friend!🤘🔥
☹️+NIGHTWISH=🙂
And another Great Song
from NIGHTWISH.
It sounds AMAZING
again as always.
I think TROY also deserves a compliment. 👌👏
What he plays on his
INSTRUMENTS is
FANTASTIC.
Donockley is a MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST👍
He plays
Uilleann pipes, Tin whistle,
Guitar, Keyboards, Bass Guitar,
Pump Organ, Bouzouki,
Cittern, Mandola, Harmonium
and many more.
I Love ❤️ NIGHTWISH🤘
Thank You Love ❤️
From the Netherlands
🙋🏼♀️🇳🇱
To really enjoy the talent of Marko and Emppu pls check High Hopes live ❤️.
The whole band is unbelievably immensed in some very special and sad realm bc they're just going to say goodbye to their first singer. For me, mightbe the best rock performance ever
Greetings.
Ummm, ok...
Floor uses an Italian designer for her outfits, if I'm not mistaken.
I do remember she mentioned her name in either one of her "Fan Friday" videos or one of her Livestreams which you can easily access in her TY channel, "Floor Jansen".
I'm surprised you didn't comment on Troy's vocal harmonies when Marko was singing on the 2nd and 3rd pre-choruses. lol
Troy uses the Uilleann Pipes in other songs too, including "The Greatest Show On Earth". It's just a beautiful sound.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and yes, Floor has gotten quite comfortable in her role with the band.
She is currently in the process of recording a solo album and performing solo shows along with continuing the tour with Nightwish.
Are you up for one more from this concert?
The song I will suggest also has an official video as it was the first single from Floor's first Nightwish studio album "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" released in April 2015.
I'll leave it up to you to decide which one you wanna do, the official video or the live in Buenos Aires.
I will leave the links in that order.
Feels good knowing this was actually written for Floor.

Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed.
😊❤🤘🤘
PS. Sorry, the name of the song is "Élan".
New angle looks good, but do whatever you’re comfortable with. Being surprised with something new as you make your way on the Nightwish journey is one of the great things about it, and there will be a few more surprises to come. Actually, this was the 11th of a 17-song set. Marko is indeed awesome. Sadly he stepped away from the band about a year ago. Troy (playing the Uillean pipes) is filling in on some of his vocals on tour, and they have a new bassist for the tour. You might want to check out Kiss While Your Lips are Still Red, for an example where he sings lead. Enjoy your journey!
remember that Floor is about 6-5 or 6-6 in those heels, yet, she worked the stage big time.....you're seeing the 6th member of Nightwish, Troy Donockley, who's English, but plays "pipes, whistles, and strings": this instrument are Ullian pipes, which are Irish bagpipes.....they self inflate, without a breaths in by the player..... also, Argentine rock audiences are bat-shit crazy.....
Good lord, no she's not lol She's 6ft, and those boots are about a 2 1/2 - 3" inch heel. There's your math. Still incredibly impressive, much like her lung capacity, so there's no need to exaggerate. Her Tampere heels are the highest I've seen her in and they look to be about 4+". THOSE are insanely high and ain't no way she's bouncing around in those.
@@Mystress1980 You beat me to the necessary correction.
I enjoy your Nightwish reactions a lot :) The way your face lights up is great to see. Watch The Poet and the Pendulum and Wembley to be truly amazed! It's a Masterpiece.
Thank you 🤘 I'll get there!
Floor is continually peaking, my friend. Incidentally, Troy is playing the Irish Uillian pipes, powered by an airbag under his right arm.
As always, great reaction. I like your new editing, like this angle better than the old one. :)
I would also recommend The Islander from the Tampere show for Marco's voice. Also Ave Maria with Floor and Marco is heavenly. More recently Floor had a solo show and she uploaded Face your demons. I am truly amazed by this woman and I know she can sing anything but she still surprised me with the way she sang that song. Also I looove your reaction videos!
I appreciate you saying that! 🤘🔥
I want my concerts back. they know Floor back when she was in After Forever when that band was the warm up band for Nightwish on tour in Europe in 2002 ?
Sup fam! Here for it!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate you bro! 🤘🤘🤘
I got you! I like the new angle btw 🤘😎
@@Jared209 Thanks lol. It's growing on me 💯
Great reaction 👍👌...this was the 13th song of the show and it's so amazing how much energy Floor has because this concert is over 2 hours and her voice never let her down, she's amazing, but.....Nightwish itself is superior and with Floor they are Premier Leage and nr.1 in Symphonic Metal.
Got a Love the South American fans. My bucket list incudes seeing Nightwish live in Buenos Aries and Tampere. Both crowds are amazing. If you think the band has peaked checkout songs from their most recent album. Tuomas really challenged all the band members. Checkout Shoemaker (Lyric Video) and How's the Heart (Planet Rock Acoustic video) to hear some amazing singing. Also Endlessness for Marko taking the lead and killing it. For more from this concert Dead Boy's Poem and Slaying the Dreamer. For more Marko singing lead The Islander (Tampere concert) and While Your Lips are Still Red (Wembley). For more Troy's Uilleann pipes, Last of the Wilds (Waken), Elvenjig/Elvenpath (Columbia concert) and the Moors section of All the Works of Nature That Adorn the World.
From Wacken 2013 - over the Endless Forms most Beautiful tour - and to this Decades Tour - Floor evolved. Tuomas managed to challenge her in her lower register, and she also got free "hands" to interpret the old songs they brought up, to her more metal style and incredible voice and power. In this Buenos Aires 2018 concert you will experience some incredible performances from her (even though she wasn't completely on top due to a flue she was recovering from.
In "Devil and the deep dark Ocean" - she shows incredible lounge capacity among other spectacular things.
In "Dead Boy's Poem" - she spellbinds the audience completely
And - in "Carpenter" - you hear Troy doing lead singing, until Floor takes over. Troy is a brilliant singer also.
Nowadays Floor and Troy has divided Marko's singing parts between them.
I my opinion, was the Decades Tour (this Buenos Aires 2018 concert) a better tour than the Imaginarium (Wacken 2013) - Floor, Marko and Troy were completely in sync, doing incredible singing - and Emppu is shining more here than in the old days - especially his cooperation with Floor are phenomenal - they simply loves each other. But they all do - and that chemistry on stage, affects the audience.
In this song, Floor actually chases Emppu to get him to dance along, and he hides behind Troy on his stand (it can be seen on some fan videos out there, both from this concert, but also from some European concerts)
Don't worry - Floor hasn't peaked yet - she is constantly improving and are completely insanely phenomenal nowadays..
On their newest album - she shows voice and breath techniques beyond belief...
Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘
This concert, at least what I've seen of it, is just an ass kicker. They know how to part in Buenos Aires. Florida Nightwish Brigade checking. Thanks for checking this out Skullz.
Yeah the chemistry with the crowd was awesome! You can tell how passionate they are 💯
IIRC, this was song 12 of 20 in the set list.
Blows my mind! They seriously came out like they were starting the concert 🔥
Floor is indeed tall. Barefoot she's just a bit over 6' and probably 6'4'' in her heels. For contrast, the guitarist, Emppu is 5'3".
I don't know how to feel about that 😳 lol
Emppu is a mighty little GIANT love and peace from Ireland 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪🤘🤘🤘🤘
Cheers my friend 🤘
@@brendankelly2720 Wouldn't want to meet up with him in a dark alley unless he's my friend. He has a black belt in judo.
Hi JOHN D absolutely love and peace from Ireland 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪🤘🤘🤘🤘
🇬🇧 Norfolk division reporting for duty let’s do this ! Strapped in and ready to go
Cheers! 🤘
On the "new angle".... I rather like this new angle. The right side of the screen (for viewers) is more like a blank canvas in which to put the concert/performer insert. The guitar on the wall over your shoulder is very nicely placed, and enhances your musical background without becoming cluttered with your whole inventory. The dark disc of the mic plus the darker headphones is also a nice contrast against the white walls. My artist eye approves.
I really appreciate the input 🙏 I like to write things in the blank spot above the video too which is why I decided to keep it blank.
😊🇫🇮❤️NW🎶✨🤘
Edit. Funny, that BA have winter☃️there 😊🇫🇮❤️🎶✨🤘
Buenos Aires gig is pure gold! So many awesome songs there… 10th man down, Kinslayer and I think Ghost Love Score is even better from this gig. The ending is soooo good and a bit different from the Wacken one. Evolved one might say.
This is the best performance of this song...so much fun!
Before Floor joined the band, Marko had a larger vocal role, esp w Anette (just based on what I've seen and heard...someone correct me if I'm wrong) bc her live voice was quite 'thin'.
Troy and his pipes were at Wacken...but you get more footage of him about 2015. He also added a 3rd harmony to the pre-chorus.
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮🤘
Greetings!
FYI another time when the band fools everyone just like Ghost this was the 13th song of the set. Amazingly they did 21 songs ... the last two ... Greatest Show On Earth at 17 minutes and then right into Ghost Love Score at 10 minutes. The show was two hours long. For future reference you should kick back with your favorite beverage and watch the whole thing. I would wait until after you've reacted to the majority of the songs ... but man watching the whole concert is just stunning. Big 4k screen, great speakers turned up and you're almost there the production on the video and sound is that good. ruclips.net/video/ox4C3sok-SI/видео.html
Yeah I want to watch a whole concert when I get through the list! 💯
A (very) good one from this same concert is also "devil and the deep dark ocean"...
I think she usually helps design her costumes, but found that one online and sent in her measurements. It suits her well. :) for Marco's voice, comments pretty much covered it, I think, but if I think of something I'll let ya know. Thanks!
In her own words, this is how Floor chooses her outfits.😊🤘 ruclips.net/video/hfQGb4n7bQk/видео.html
The lady she works with is from Royal Black Couture.
Nice react yet again, thanks! You should check Marco & Floor "duel" in the same concert; The Devil and The Deep Dark Ocean...
Don’t forget Troy back there adding some vocals too.
NW family want to share the JOY of NW. We watch every reactor hoping to find kindred. By now we have heard more than enough lectures on glottal folds, mouth position, look-at-me analysis with method actor bug eyed reactions.,... . THANK YOU for your infectious joyous reactions. We mostly want to share to bless others...not be lectured ad infinitum about key changes etc.. We get it, we got it.
Does it sound "shallow" to say we can divide people up into those who get NW...and those who do a GLS or two to build subs...but don't dive in? Yeah...we can!
Nightwish High Hopes
🤘🇫🇮
Try the Islander live at Tampere, you will love it!
You should check "Wintersun - Sons Of Winter And Stars (TIME I Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios) REMASTER" as the current drummer & bassist of Nightwish is from there and they're just unbelievable in that song and the other members are on par with'em 🤘
Well.... I was about to say everything the previous post "Pupperoni" just said those are 3 songs you should really check out..
Outfits of Floor on stage: ruclips.net/video/hfQGb4n7bQk/видео.html (she decide herself what to wear - she has the ideas, but to visualize it there is another one…) 👍🏆
You can see what Emppu can do with his Guitar in “High Hopes” a cover from Pink Floyd! For me this is not a cover, is more a tribute to Pink Floyd, there are two solos from Emppu and Marko's voice in this song is absolutely amazing! Thank you!
The sixth member of Nightwish, Troy Donockley from the UK, doesn't appear in every song and he plays all sorts of whistles, pipes, guitars, bouzouki etc etc.whatever is required by Tuomas. These uilleann (elbow) pipes are incredibly difficult to play as level of coordination necessary to pump bellows under right elbow, compress bag with left elbow and finger the pipes and he's singing in this one !!
Actually this was the 13th song of a 21 song set list.
Nice seeing you again!
NIGHTWISH AND MEGADETH?? 🔥
MARCO SINGING HEAVY SOLO? 🤘🏻
My suggestion is another cover of them, which we HARDLY see on RUclips.🇳🇱
And if you like a HEAVY Nightwish sound,
this will be a very nice one! 🔥🤘🏻😎
Marco is singing solo on this one.
Check out their cover of Megadeth, symphony of destruction.
(Montreal 2004)
AND A HEAVY SIREN FLOOR & MARCO?
The second also hardly on RUclips, is a heavy Siren, The Siren performed live of course by Floor Jansen, and also again a very good singing Marco🔥❤️🤘🏻
Enjoy it, and I with you!
Oh, I had to pause to get over the angle situation 😁
Yes man, it was a great performance, very Irish, very Football (oh c'mon, Argentina is a very soccer country), very "festival" performance
Uillian means Under arm this Pips have a better Sound as an Scotish pipe
Liked you flow.
Thanks bro! Much love 🔥
Floor is 6ft tall. Empuu is 5ft. Wanna look taller? Stand next to a tiny person.
I resemble the tiny person remark lol
😂😂😂
Tuomas is 6'2". Marko is 5'11"
Thanks
I told in one channel whe i met Floor she was taller than me. With heels tho. I'm 192cm and she was avout 2.01cm. Then someone commented that Floir 1.83cm. If she would be that Marco would tower over her. Marco is over 180cm.
Argentinian crowd is always a joy, it's amazing to. Go to a concert in Buenos Aires
Man, it's time for you to check out The Phantom of the Opera and see the power of Tarja as well, I really like your reactions
Appreciate it bro! 🤘
The crowd is singing a football chant, replacing the name of a soccer team with "Nightwish".
It’s Marko and Troy singing
u mentioned her being tall? 🤔 well she is about 6"1 foot tall but u have to add some more inches top of that depending what kinda boots/heels shes wearing on stage...so.. 😄🙃 # #ReactChannel #Skullz #NiceWork
Appreciate it my friend! 🤘
next:devil and the deep dark ocean
Bg
