    Hello, mom & daughter [Generation Gap Reacts] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
    Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience.
    About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
    Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
    " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
    Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
    Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen [pronounced Tarr-ya] (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
    There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
    I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "

      Although Floor has operatic training, I don't consider the little excerpts she sings with Nightwish to be operatic at all. She sings classical occasionally but definitely not operatic. She did some operatic in this song but only in parts like the single line before the growl, the staccato, and the single word before the belt at the end. She sings on mix mostly.

    got distracted and joined a series of bands. However, Floor still gathers souls by her grace, beauty and the sheer power
    of her vocals.
    We give thanks for her at our Blots regularly and hope that Odhinn won't notice that she has never returned to Asgard.

    Floor is an amazing person. Her connection with the fans is second to none.
    On the last leg of the South American tour this year, she found out that she had breast cancer. Got home home, got the tumor removed and was notified that she was cancer free. Then went and launched their European Tour 3 days after that. So within a month she kicks cancer to the curb then gets re-energized by her Nightwish brothers and fans.
    So dedicated to her craft, family, and fans, she finds a way to balance it all.

    Nightwish Army South Germany Division here
    Hello Mom and Daughter (Generation Gap Reacts) ...Our Boss, Commander-in-Chief and General of the Nightwish Army Gabriel Bardac has already told you the most important things.
    It only remains for me to say a warm welcome to the wonderful world of symphonic metal and at the same time welcome as a new recruits to the ranks of the Nightwish Army.
    You've just seen and heard her, who is named by her fans worldwide in the sum of her honorifics in hundreds of React videos:
    This is Our Majesty Floor Jansen, First of her Name, Goddess of the Valkyrs, Highly Queen of the Vikings, THE Lady of Nightwish, the House Band of the Gods of Asgard, Chosen Ones of Odin ,Protector of our Metal Realm
    Long may she reign
    She raises her hand and commands an 80k+ crowd with her incredible presence and power. Just with a wave of her hand.
    A member of the Nightwish Army once said: The old gods of Asgard sent Floor Jansen down from the heavenly heights as their gift to Nightwish. They sent them armed with a sword in one hand and a microphone in the other.
    And yes, I personally believe that's how it happened.
    There is nothing more to say about this
    Greetings from Germany
    the lady
    P.S.: Another Videos for you:
    Epica feat. Floor Jansen - Sancta Terra
    Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom of the Opera from the Netherland TV-Series "Best Zangers" from 2019
    And another tip: If you're planning on "The Greatest Show on Earth", please show the lyrics to it. In both versions of this masterpiece, that of London and that of Tampere, there are text passages that are a bit too quiet and get lost in the music. These are the lyrics spoken by Richard Dawkins.
    And both versions differ significantly in part 1 and 3. If I were you, I would prefer the London version at Wembley Stadium.
    The same goes for "The Poet and the Pendulum" as far as the overlaying of the lyrics goes. Especially here it is really important to follow the lyrics.

    Nightwish came before Evanescence, they've been around since the mid-90s. They're not the first Symphonic Metal band, but they are probably the biggest, most popular one working.

    Nightwish is a symphonic metal band. Ghost Love Score is Floor's favorite song and this was song #13 on a 15 song 1.5 hour set. Most fans will recommend the 2013 Wacken performance because the sound system and mix is superb at Wacken. Floor had only been with the NW a few months before the the Wacken, Germany festival and she was brought in as a temporary replacement for the previous lead singer, Annette, who had parted ways with the band during the U.S. leg of their world tour. For the moist part Floor was welcomed with open arms by most NW fans who liked her classical and metal style. If you watch some of the other Wacken songs you'll see that she is also the Queen of headbangers and often referred to as the Dutch Windmill. All the Wacken 2013 songs are fantastic and pretty common that new reactors get hooked and wind up going through. the entire Wacken setlist. NW is still very popular throughout Europe and Latin America. If you watch their Buenos Aires or Rio performances you's notice that she also sports some amazing tattoos.

    Welcome to the world of Symphonic Metal, and the Valkyrie Queen, Floor Jansen.
    Jukka, the drummer, is no longer their drummer, as he had medical problems...chronic insomnia....and is still with the band in a managerial position. The replacement is named Kai, and he is an equal replacement for Jukka, and the two of them are very good friends. Marko is the bass player, Emppu is lead guitarist, and Tuomas is the genius behind the music, lyrics, etc!
    Oh...just in case you are wondering...there were 82,000 people at this concert!!!
    Oh...I am 65 years young, and I started listening to rock n roll music in 1965, following Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Ozzy Osbourne, and growing up listening to the greats fueled my love for rock 'n roll that has not waned!

    That was the third last song of 15, one hour and a half and that's still her voice. This is our metal goddess Floor Jansen. The best singer in the world. She can sing anything, even phone books. No kidding, she's already done that for us.
    This woman can sing anything she wants and it turns gold. Highest notes, deep crowling, anything and this in perfection.
    Jukka (drummer) is our bull rider, pirate, showman.
    Watch Nightwish's "Nemo" same concert. Jukka with stickswings all over the place.

    You just stumbled upon an entire new genre of music that's very popular throughout Europe and South America, but for some behind-the-scenes industry politics reasons doesn't really get traction in the US.
    Symphonic metal and its sister subgenre, Gothic Symphonic metal, usually feature classically trained or operatic vocals and orchestral backing (usually in the form of pre-recorded backing tracks, as it's hard to tour with a full orchestra in tow).
    So far, the only band from this genre to really break into US charts is gothic metal band Evanescence, but the Nightwish Army here is introducing the band to everybody they meet. And the Nightwish rabbit hole leads to plenty more amazing bands you've never heard of. Kamelot, Within Temptation, Visions Of Atlantis, Xandria, After Forever, Blackbriar, Sirenia, Ayreon...just to name a few.
    After Nightwish's Storytime from this same Wacken 2013 festival, I suggest dipping into Gothic Symphonic band Epica - with a guest appearance by Nightwish's Floor Jansen 😉 Epica's Simone Simons is Floor's best friend, and very nearly as good a singer.

    I'm one who suggested you react to this video. Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, they collaborate with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
    The current Nightwish female vocalist, Floor Jansen, is the 3rd one. She's the most versatile of the three. That's why she, I think, is the best vocalist for Nightwish. Nightwish has many kinds of songs, metal, folky, Celtic, ballads, even one that can be called jazz. Tuomas Holopainen, the band founder, leader, composer, lyricist, writes wast majority of Nightwish songs.
    The original female vocalist, Tarja Turunen, 1996-2005, had a very operatic style, the 2nd Anette Olzon, 2007-2012, had poppish/rock style, and Floor, from 2012 on, can sing every style from operatic to growling.
    I hope you would react to Nightwish rendition of "THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA",
    2005 End of an Era DVD.
    It was Tarja's last concert with Nightwish, she did't know that, the rest of the band did. Anyway, her voice is perfect for this song, the role of Christine. So is Marko's, (Marko Hietala, the bassist, 2001- 2021), voice for the role of the Phantom!
    About headbanging. Floor's headbanging is called windmilling, because she 's Dutch.
    On the video you just see she did not really windmill, it was more like headbanging. Wait until you see Nightwish - 7 DAYS TO THE WOLVES Wembley 2015 video. Floor windmills about half a minute straight, Tuomas on keys, windmills too while playing.
    I hope, and believe, you'll react to more Nightwish. As many song as possible and a bit later the other two big ones:
    THE POET AND THE PENDULUM Wembley 2015,
    THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Tampere 2015
    (You just reacted to one of the three big ones, GHOST LOVE SCORE Wacken 2013. The Buenos Aires 2012 version is not bad either. Check it out, it's more intimate.)
    Greetings from Helsinki Finland!

    Sarah Brightman is not a strange comparison at all. In fact, as others I'm sure have already mentioned, Floor Jansen sang "Phantom of the Opera" on the Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers" (Floor is Dutch) with fellow countryman Henk Poort who originated the role of the Phantom in the Netherlands.

She can do this and some opera and some growls and has a huge lung capacity. Welcome to Symphonic Metal. She's a great story teller and performer. P.S The bassist Marco hietala can also sing and he's been around since 1986. Just so you know she had a burnout in 2011. She has her own RUclips Channel and another Channel sort of called Floorworld.

    Funny what you infer about Floor Jansen's character. Floor is the most empathic and soft character in real life. But she can also be wild. Floor is a living juxtaposition, as is Nightwish's music. Floor started performing at 16, did music university (partly) and the Dutch Rock academy with a focus on musical theatre and (of course) Rock music. On youtube you will find many extremes. The oldest recording on TV (and YT) is from 2002 (at 21 y/o) After Forever "Monolith of doubt". Het wildest is in her own band Revamp "Disdain (live at pinkpop)" and if you want true opera Floor sings "O mio babbino caro" on Dutch TV. She just started a solo career (at 40 y/o) but stated that she will continue serving Nightwish as well.

    Symphonic metal is a wonderful genre of music. You can get lost in this music just as you can in a classic symphony. Nightwish is at the forefront of the genre. Imagine, this song was about 3/4 of the way through the show.
    There are many other bands in the genre. Another band with the same level of "epicness" is a band named Epica. Their singer, Simone Simons, is on par with Floor. There is actually a performance of Floor with Epica singing Sancta Terra during a special concert.
    Suggested songs for Epica would be Consign to Oblivion, The Skeleton Key, and The Phantom Agony, among others. Keep Enjoying!

    Floor Jansen pronounced Yansen Has sung The Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort on the Beste Zangers show pronounced Best Singers. Welcome on-board lovely ladies Nightwish is Symphonic Metal as in Symphony With Metal. Floor is there third singer. The first singer was more Opera/Classical but they parted with her and replaced her with a new singer who's style was more Pop but sadly she became ill and couldn't finish the tour in the U.S. so The asked Floor who left her band Revamp to join them and became there perminenant singer.

    Ladies
    As a member of Nightwish Army, welcome to Nightwish! This band started in 1999 with students studying music in Finland: Tuomas (keyboardist & original singer, Tarja). Tarja from 1999 to 2005 sang for the band until she was forced to leave the band. Bass player, Marko here, now retired from touring joined the band in 2002 and stayed until 2021. Guitarist Emppu along with Tuomas are longest served in the band. Tarja's replacement, Anette joined the band in 2007 after Tuomas put band on hiatus because he suffered depression from letting go Tarja. Fans blamed him for letting Tarja go. Then her replacement, Anette left the band in 2012. Band's current singer, Floor Jansen started out as their touring vocalist. Floor and band's multi-instrumentalist, Troy became full-time members.

His replacement's name is Kai Hahto. Funny that Gen daughter stated that Floor has an operatic skill. Floor studied opera and other vocal skills. She is a vocal coach teaching others besides singing for Nightwish. Floor Jansen has her own RUclips channel. She has videos on the channel including her analysis of her singing "Ghost Love Score".

    I really enjoyed your reaction. I was led to Nightwish via a reaction to Floor Jansen doing a cover of "Alone". I was captivated (I am a 73 year old male....ignore my moniker). Floor was so good on "Alone", I had to listen to more. Now I can't stop. She is a beautiful person (and more than a little intimidating!). That opinion is based on the interviews and shows I have watched her perform in.
    To get a better idea of Floor's abilities/talent, search youtube for "Beste Zangers", then listen to the series of shows Floor appears in (2019 season). A really entertaining show, and it is astonishing to see Floor's versatility and talent. I cannot stop listening, and I love watching people react to her (and Nightwish....I didn't even know I liked metal!). She also has her own RUclips channel.

    So very nice to see you ladies back. For another north European influenced performance that really is different it would be great to see you react to ‘Eivør - The Last Kingdom: Main Theme (Live at Hammersmith Apollo)’. You will of course remember how impressed you both were with Eivør singing ‘Falling Free’. Well if you thought that was different you should hear this performance from London last year. To prepare you I will say Eivør does all the background singing and tribal vocalisations in the Netflix Viking drama series ‘The Last Kingdom’, so don’t expect very much conventional singing.

    Floor Jansen is Dutch, over 6ft tall and can sing anything. She joined Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish in late 2012 mid-tour and learned the complete setlist in 2 days before performing in Seattle. This is ten months later, in front of 82,000, and she was superb at this concert singing 15 songs written for the previous two singers. The first,Tarja, was very operatic and the second, Anette, was quite pop. There is a RUclips channel for Floor Jansen where she sings all kinds of covers from Disney, and various types of singers. Her solo version of Lady Gaga's Shallow is magnificent.
