This song has one of my favourite lines of all time: “it’s hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead”. My mantra for life. If life throws you shit you can sit there and grumble about it or you can try to find a solution/make the best of it. As for Floor: Floor Was, Is, And Always Will be, A Force Of Nature !!!!! NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘
Yeah, the lyrics are great - you could read them as a poem (in fact I have), at least as written in the album booklet which omits some of the repetition. "We live in every moment but this one" - always nostalgic for or regretting the past and waiting for or fearing the future, but forgetting to live in the moment. And I didn't notice any of them for ages because the song is such a banger you just get caught up in the feel of it!
Yes!! One of my favorite lines as well and I have many! I like , scent of fresh-mown lawn in the morning sun. I do love that smell!! Thank you, my friend 🤘🤘
Marco left in 2021, and is still missed, but his replacement on the bass Jukka is killing it on bass, and Floor had to do more of the singing, which for me is never bad. More Floor! Yes Please! Troy has a good voice also. Floor gets better and better, and baffles me how.
This performance was so perfect. Floor and Marko both singing their hearts out. Everyone else just out there enjoying themselves. Marko absolutely rocking that kilt and Floor as beautiful as ever. Thank you for reacting to this. There are other bands I like, even love, but, Nightwish is home.
Thank you, my friend! I really enjoyed this song and the energy they bring. Seeing Marko in a kilt makes me think of how cool it would be to see him and Zach Wylde on stage rocking their kilts, beards and blond locks! There is a lot of bands that are connected to NW that I still need to get to but they will come in due time, that's a guarantee!🤘🤘
@@BemusingBill for me and many the Wacken 2013 version is far better for a 1st time reaction, while this one is good you can feel the difference without Jukka on drums
In Wacken 2013 Floor was in the band about couple months… and she learn all the songs very short time. Floor is Nighrwish and Nightwish is Floor❤ All band members are a amazing. Kai and Emppu 👍🏻
Yes in this song, Floor generally goes around the band - even gets Tuomas to sing into her mic occasionally (like Wembley 2022 but in others I've seen on video too). She is playful with Emppu too often in this one.
Just a fun song. Inspired by roller coaster rides, it is usually played at , or near, the end of the set. From the 2011 Imaginaerum album, recorded with Anette , was also the set closer at Wacken 2013. Marko left in Jan 2021. You'll see Jukka Koskinen in anything after that. "Weak Fantasy" , at Tampere 2015 or Wembley 2015, will give you a good look at Kai on drums. Oh, you haven't seen Troy yet. To fix that, try "I Want My Tears Back" at Buenos Aires 2018.
That is so awesome to hear, that it was just what you needed. I need them to in my life too ( they help me get in my happy place) ... I hope you have a good rest of your day/night ... keep the good vibes going , much love to ya ❤️
Troy played with Nightwish from 2008 but only became a full time member in mid 2013 at the same time as Floor. He only appears during certain songs but has featured most of the time since Marko's departure in 2021.
Hello BemusingBill. Nightwish Army Phoenix back with you for this. Thank you for another amazing reaction to Nightwish live with Floor. Loved it and keep them coming.
Great reaction! This song was the set closer at Wacken in 2013 and here at this festival. So much joy and energy in this song. Has one of my favorite lyrics "it'’s hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead”. When I saw them in Boston in May of 2022, on their Human Nature tour, this song followed by Ghost Love Score, Greatest Show on Earth, and then the Ad Astra movement from All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World (as the outro while the band takes their bows and then Floor sings the vocals lines from the piece to end the show.) was the end of the set. Incredibly emotional, uplifting, and inspiring. Best concert of my life and I have never left a show more inspired to go out and live my best life. Nightwish makes me appreciate what a gift being alive is.
Great one, thank you ohh-- I dream of a SuperBowl-HalfTimeShow ( or something in that kind) with NW.. or Floor singing any Anthem (she does the NL one for F1) that would be well deserved (and when i see "the Superstars" who did/do it .. 😱)
A question I'll probably never know the answer to but would love to. Who was Tuomas and Floor pointing to in the audience? They looked surprised and pleased.
Wonderful stuff my friend, to see the delight on your face is brilliant - and you still have barely scratched the surface of their incredible catalogue 🤘🤘🤘
Have you heard the mash-up of Last Ride Of The Day by Nightwish and Dan Vasc by Viking Reacts? You might want to check it out! Dan Vasc does a number of covers of Nightwish that are incredible!
@@mardroidmk1393 No, it's more like anti-that really, because no m*n can stay gay anymore after seeing Floor and her long.. notes, threatening to do "one last whipping". That's quite intolerant actually. She might get accused of carrying a weapon of mass seduction and even get cancelled for that! 🙃
@@BemusingBill Oh yes. I hope one day you'll get to the young, pre-Nightwish Floor because that's where the REAL power is. What you've heard so far is rather restrained Floor on her best behaviour. :)
Kai is often on cruise control with Nightwish songs (and that's no slight on Jukka as I actually prefer his drumming!). Go listen to his old band Wintersun to see him in full beast mode as one of the top drummers in the world!! And the new bass player, another Jukka, was also a part of the same band.
Fabulous!!! Now you must go listen to DavNVasc sing this!!! And then find the reaction by Viking!,,,, and then the mashup that he did of Dan Vasc and Nightwish version Last Ride Of The Day it is incredible!! 🧔🏻♀️🫡🫶🏻🤘🏼💪🏼
To get those pesky European names right, here is a 42 second video on how to pronounce them. Only Jukka Kosinen (the new bass player) is missing, but I'm quite sure Jukka (the new bass player) is pronounced exactly the same as Jukka (the old drummer). ruclips.net/video/DpapnmXoIZk/видео.html Mind that Troy is British and Floor is Dutch, so their names are pronounced only 95% accurate by these Finish people.

She's like a fine wine that gets better with age! I was so happy to see Marko out there rocking that kilt🤘

The artists, the audience, everybody look happy to be there. 😄
Absolutely! I could feel the joy through the screen! If I could time travel I would be right there in front! Thank you, my friend!🤘🤘
Excellent reaction. I think your audio sounds better.
Thank you! I'm still floored by peoples kindness. I didn't expect to be able to upgrade till maybe after Christmas. So grateful❤️
Good one.
Thanks!
In Wacken 2013 Floor was in the band about couple months… and she learn all the songs very short time. Floor is Nighrwish and Nightwish is Floor❤
All band members are a amazing. Kai and Emppu 👍🏻
Very beautiful
Two words... Speeding ticket
My favourite performance of this song that has become a standard for the band now.
I'm glad to hear it is. Such a great song and so much energy from the band! They all look so happy it's contagious. Thank you my friend🤘🤘
Yes in this song, Floor generally goes around the band - even gets Tuomas to sing into her mic occasionally (like Wembley 2022 but in others I've seen on video too). She is playful with Emppu too often in this one.
Nightwish in one word is ENERGY from the first minute to the last note🤟🏻🤟🏻🎶🎶

It just keeps getting better and better.
I've noticed that too😁🤘
Great way to end the festival with this one. Everything sound much better Bill!
Just the song I needed tonight in Aus! TYVM!
That is so awesome to hear, that it was just what you needed. I need them to in my life too ( they help me get in my happy place) ... I hope you have a good rest of your day/night ... keep the good vibes going , much love to ya ❤️
I miss Marko, but the new Bassplayer Jukka Koskinen is amazing. Tuomas know,what he do. 🤘🤘
I trust in Tuomas!🤘🤘
You need to watch Poet and The Pandulum by nightwish - Wembley 2015!!!
🤩👍💥💯🎶
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙

Really?!? That's fantastic! Gotta check them out. I appreciate the suggestion. Thank you❤️
Never've liked this song, but still performed well.
They could rock Mary Had A Little Lamb and it would blow our minds🤘🤘
God, she looks incredible here...
😍🔥
yes, here and everywhere else😀
@@ricklong4218 Another one of my favorite looks is the 2015 Wembley...
@@jonathanlocke6404Oh yes sir for sure
Yep, Lost Pride of The Gay is a great way to end a show at Masters of Stoned. Floor's long.. notes really stand out here!😊
Is that the LGBTQ version of the song?
@@mardroidmk1393 No, it's more like anti-that really, because no m*n can stay gay anymore after seeing Floor and her long.. notes, threatening to do "one last whipping". That's quite intolerant actually. She might get accused of carrying a weapon of mass seduction and even get cancelled for that! 🙃
She has the force of a hurricane coming out of those lungs!
@@BemusingBill Oh yes.
I hope one day you'll get to the young, pre-Nightwish Floor because that's where the REAL power is. What you've heard so far is rather restrained Floor on her best behaviour. :)
sorry what ? and why ?
This is my favorite live version, even better than Wacken. Floor does extra vocal runs here and the background setup is so awesome and colorful!!!
Dan Vasc does an amazing cover of this!
I will be checking that one out!🤘🤘
@@BemusingBill looking forward to it
Wat klinkt Floor toch geweldig
Yes!! ❤️

Yeah, the vibrato divebombs part of his solo sounds a little Neal Schon...
Right? Thank you for that! I was noticing the phrasing in that solo that was Shcon-like. Emppu Rocks!
