I was not at all familiar with Nightwish. Not sure why I resisted clicking any of their reviews. Thanks to Father and Son Reactions I experienced and came to appreciate these amazing performers. I knew it when I found myself nodding my head along with Larry. ............aka Pablo.
Nightwish seems like the perfect reaction after the break and it also works fine as warm up for the Nightwish concert on sunday. Have a great time at the show and please let us know how it was on upcoming reaction video.
Nightwish music is usually a journey. Their music tends to build slowly to a climax. Enjoy the show on Sunday. I will be going next Friday. Can't wait!
Hi guys, so nice to see you back and with Nightwish. Nightwish is finally back on the the road again and enjoy your Nightwish concert. This is one of their older songs.
Great to have you guys back. Had to check the timestamp, because I would have thought you'd already done this one. I agree about Floor being in a league of her own, and this is one of my favorite performances of hers. Jealous of you guys seeing them on Sunday, but happy for you. I look forward to some type of review!
Yes, she is in a league of her own. I saw a clip of her singing in Toronto 2022,the song Nemo. 🎵 She held the last note for like 16 seconds, swear to God or in this case swear to the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇 😇😇Floor. Hail Nightwish 🤩🤩🤩
See the boy reaching toward the swans? In Finnish mythology, swans transport the deceased souls to Valhallah. The boy is Tuomas reaching for the swans.
Wow.... As a Finn I have never heard that "Valhalla" belongs in Finnish mythology, not at in any ways (???) Truly curious where this kinda 'rumor' is oriented from 🤘😜 A Finnish national epic called "Kalevala" tells of a place called "Tuonela" which can be translated/referred to "The Underworld" Valhalla(h) is part of Nordic mythology, mainly in Norwegian Epic. ....Just what I've heard what the boys chats on the hood... 😆👌
@@jaskau2462 Sorry to make that mistake. I did not know what the Finnish word is for Valhalla so I just used Valhalla. I'm still confused about it but I will use Tuonela from now on when speaking of the Finnish Heaven...I guess??
You know, I was really curious to see with what song you would celebrate your comeback, and I was also thinking that Nightwish would be a great band for that occasion. You just made my day.😄 And this is one of my favourite songs by them. Great pick. I loved it. 😁👍 By the way, when are you taking on Poet and the Pendulum by Nightwish. I'd love to see your reaction to that.🤩
Thank you so much Matt! I appreciate that very much. That song is tricky because of the blocking issues we’ve heard about it. Not sure if we will end up doing it or not. -Ethan
@@fatherandsonreactions I think that if you react to "The poet..." from the official Nightwish channel you will have no problems with copyrights. :-) It's my favourite song, BUT... it's really dark, it deals with hard depression and very dark thoughts... I think it's brilliant, but be prepared - it's really dark. But still beautiful.
Welcome back guys. Appropriate to do a Nightwish song react since you are going to see them Sunday. Hope you have a great time. By the way, Floor Jansen released a solo song on March 25, 2022 named Fire. You may already know this but Floor is married to Hannes Van Dahl, the drummer for Sabaton.
Oh, I have to wait at least 6 months before I see them live....... so enjoy it, worth the waiting, I`m sure and tell us about it. Love from the Netherlands.
What a deep song for Father and Son reactions. Growing up a handsome young lad I see. Joan Jet is the rocker. Pat Banetar is the protest song rocker. Floor is.............. If you are lucky in America you can see them in a smaller veneue 🌹🌹
How would I describe Nightwish? Classical music performed with metal. Often very highly atmospheric and descriptive. It can't be all heavy to give a true description of a part, and it is the various parts that produce the whole. Incidentally, it was Tarja Turunen who performed the original of this on the album Wishmaster. And what a fantastic album that is.
Here you are! I know I'll love this song. It's seeing you two discussing music again that gets my best review. Enjoy the show! They are coming to Chicago and couple days after yours!👍
Enjoy your magic Sunday with Nightwish. I want see them 12.12 Hamburg. For this reaction, Death Boys Poems is one of my Big five from Nightwish. 🤘 i am waiting, Nightwish comes back to her Hometown in Europe 🤗🤘🤗
Great to see you guys back! Great reaction as usual. Hopefully some Iron Maiden will be eased back into your reaction rotation! Enjoy the concert guys! 👍🏻👍🏻
So great to see you back! And what a great band to come back with. A great song from their older era material. It is a mellow one but very nice. Just to celebrate your return, and as a complete opposite of my usual random suggestions which never have anything to do with the current video, I'm going to suggest a song from Nightwish...here's Tribal live from their virtual show ruclips.net/video/ibjU9OH_t4Y/видео.html. Cheers
Nightwish is definitely the band that comes to most peoples minds when hearing the term "symphonic metal" 2 other bands that use symphonic in a bit of a different way than Nightwish are Scardust( i recommend trying "gone" as first track) Seven Spires( i recommend starting with title track of their latest album "Gods of Debauchery")
Exactly Dad, I have never heard or seen anything like Floor, and I have always appreciated strong vocals. She is the best, and I can't wait to see them live myself one day.
Man y'all r gonna have an amazing time ... I'm so jealous!! This is a good Night Wish song & fitting. Hey Larry I think you did get those tics in '20 bc I remember you talking about them on several of the posts .. the concert being postponed & all. Ethan I believe ur dad is correct. Great to see y'all's first reaction post after quite a lengthy hiatus. Y'all be alert & safe at the concert now. Luv u guys. Peace Out ☮️🤘🏼❣️🙏🏼
@@cherylreichardt I feel ya Girl. I've had a shark about 5 ft long swim right past me while I was just wading in chin deep water. He was headed right for me but I was in such shallow water .. I just gently backed up. So he was swimming in about 2 ft of water. Yeah I'm good on land. We usually stay in a place with a pool. If I want to get in water .. pool will do. I'll still wade shell hunting .. but believe me I'm alert & stay shallow. When r u leaving for Florida .. memorial day week?
Great to see you both back doing what you do best! Great reaction to a great song. Hope you have brilliant time on Sunday when you finally get to see them live in the flesh! 🤘😀
Hey Steve ! Thank you so much. Great to see you commenting. We missed you and everyone, but we are back , and going full speed ahead ! Hope all is well -Larry
Very cool ! Send us a message on our Instagram and we will respond when we know what time we will be arriving. We will be there a little early so maybe we can say hello before ya go in. Might be hard to find each other in a group of 3000 people -Larry
@@fatherandsonreactions I can't go to Denver I injured my left foot pretty bad today and am now walking with a cane. I'm almost 80 years old so the round trip and that much walking would be too much for me. :-( :-( Glad I didn't buy a ticket but gutted I can't see them live. :-( :-(
Did you know Floor Jansen and Simone Simons of Epica have work with Ayreon on his scifi metal operas here's a song with Floor and 10 other prominent singers from bands like Symphony X, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Dream Theater,Epica, and Nightwish Here's Ayreon The Day That The World Breaks Down ruclips.net/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/видео.html
What a great way to start, I forgot to turn the volume up at the beginning but the reward does come later. I'm sure it will sound amazing to be in the middle of that on Sunday. Fantastic! Have a great day on Sunday, and I hope some folks around the NY area can meet up with you before the concert - suggest you allow plenty of time because it go by all too quickly.
@@fatherandsonreactions omg I will tell you.. You will love the show for sure.. It was magical.. I have no word to describe everything I felt watching the show.. Please let me know how's the show tomorrow 😊
Great song, great reaction. Everything they do is awesome, always a great time. Hope y'all have a great time Sunday. Glad to have you back guys, as always- much love&respect ❣ Just to throw this out there, another great singer live would be Amy Lee of Evanescence. Lacrymosa- Synthesis live is an awesome intro to her vocal style and range. Much love...
It's very fitting you start the channel comeback with Nightwish! Awesome! I think this was a good tune for sure. Floor, of course, knocks it out of the park. It felt like the lyrics and vocals took more of a center stage with this track, with the music acting as a kind of guide with the tale she was telling. I think I'm with you, Ethan. I do prefer the heavier stuff. Feeling "Rewarded" with the heaviness of Harvest. That is great way to put it, as that is EXACTLY what that song, and many other metal songs like it, intend for the listener. The song's meant to kind of gently lure you into its softer composition, and when the listener allows themselves to get invested into the music the song will progress more and more into something different. Sometimes it progresses into heaviness, other times into different composition styles. And by the end, the song will have to pay it off in some way (depending on the mood it's trying to convey. Maybe pay it off in a heavy and vibrant way or have the heavier part in the middle and then let it trickle back into the softer part). Unless it's an atmospheric piece, the progression and contrast of the music within the piece I think is pretty important to have for songs like this one (and Harvest). And believe me, there are quite a lot of metal songs like that, too. Moreso in genres like Post-Metal, Post-Rock (this genre has a LOT of tracks with build-up), and even progressive metal and rock. But other metal genres, and genres outside of metal, have some songs like this as well (especially classical, which a lot of metal is rooted into compositionally, and as you know... Nightwish has a LOT of classical-style music within their work). Oh boy.... Hearing you guys talk about when you might have bought the tickets, is a very relatable feeling. My sense of time has basically been warped for the past two years, it all blends together for me. lol XD Going to see Nightwish this Saturday! Looking forward to it! :D Whoa... and there you have it. My novels have returned as well, apparently. lol Wishing you guys the best! Looking forward to more reacts from you guys again and thank you for this one! :)
Great to see the both of you back to reacting to Nightwish. Hope you both enjoy seeing them live in New York on Sunday. I have to wait until November before I get to see them. Bought my tickets back in November 2019! Stay safe 🤘 ✌
Hey, if you want to react to some havier Nightwish song, check out "Slaying The Dreamer". It's so good. There are many versions, but the version from the same concert (Buenos Aires 2018) is amazing. Also, the version with Tarja from 2005 is really great. So, if you want to react to more heavy metal Nightwish, this song is perfect!
Hi Guys I love this song. Floor had the stomach flu when Nightwish played in Finland last week. So the first show her throat was sore but the fans energy helped her make it through. You guys should react to her very first single released last month. At least 3 days before Nightwish played online Finland Floor sang a page from a phone book in the Netherlands. . You should check out Floor world
I don't know if you remember me but I'm the guy that went to college town in South Jersey at Rowan University I live right by Rutgers and I will be there Sunday, We'll definitely try to find you guys👍 and say hello....
Hey Scott ! For sure ! Shoot us a message on our Instagram or here with your email and we will email you from the road and we can try to connect before the show. I would imagine it would be hard to find each other inside with 3000 people ! We will be there early because we don’t want to take any chances with traffic. Looking forward to meeting you -Larry
You guys are so lucky you are going to see them on Sunday i have my tickets since 2019 and still need to wait till November of this year, so have fun guys, let us know how it was for your first time seeing them🤘🤘
We would love to meet you before the show! Send us a message in our Instagram and we will message you and let you know when we are there and we can say hello before the show. We will be there early👍 -Ethan
@@fatherandsonreactions Sorry not big on social media, so we don't do instagram. All the same, we will be there should be by 12pm, so hopefully that's early enough. :) Shouldn't be hard to see you beforehand =D
@@rianvandenhoof4124 Because the style that the two found strange has its origins in Black Sabbath. If Nightwish is metal, there's nothing surprising about the sound of this song. Never forget that of all metal bands, the most important is Black Sabbath.
Ethan you are a Skid Row fan, what do you think about the new singer Erik Grönwall? I think he's amazing and fits Skid Row perfectly. Can't wait for the new album that will be released on October 14, 2022.
Wow, you did not do the poet and the pendulum yet ;) If you do, please know it is about Tuomas his back depression after the band fired Tarja and the media, friends, fans all broke the band with awful reactions. Tuomas could t=not function anymore and his parents and friend were extremely worries. He was suicidal. His friend told him to write a song about what happened, his suffering and to kill himself in the song. Masterpiece! Often he asks the soundtech to turn off the microphone, because the lyrics are still hard for him to listen to.
I am not sure what the appeal of this band is. They seem rather derivative. Is it because they have a female vocalist? When it comes to female talent reaction channels, such as this, are totally bypassing and missing out on the talent from the BLUES genre. Because, blues, as a musical form, is heavily ignored by most, if not all, reaction channels. Yes, I know, I am tapping an empty well when it comes to finding reactions to Blues artists. My frequency of visiting reaction channels reflects this. It is disappearing at an increasing rate

You guys are so lucky you are going to see them on Sunday i have my tickets since 2019 and still need to wait till November of this year, so have fun guys, let us know how it was for your first time seeing them🤘🤘
We will definitely do a recap video talking about how awesome the Nightwish concert was. -Ethan
Nice to see you guys back again once more! I hope you’ll do more Def Leppard and Fleetwood Mac. Rock of Ages is the perfect choice for your son.
Have a blast guys!
Thanks Paul! -Ethan
Thank you Paul -Larry

We would love to meet you before the show! Send us a message in our Instagram and we will message you and let you know when we are there and we can say hello before the show. We will be there early👍 -Ethan
@@fatherandsonreactions Sorry not big on social media, so we don't do instagram. All the same, we will be there should be by 12pm, so hopefully that's early enough. :) Shouldn't be hard to see you beforehand =D
Cool. We will be parking around 5:40. Hope to run into you !
React Iron Maiden infinite dreams and wratchild live in rock in rio please!
Its a doom metal. You can listen doom on Black Sabbath.
Why? We have Nightwish..... LOL
@@rianvandenhoof4124 Because the style that the two found strange has its origins in Black Sabbath. If Nightwish is metal, there's nothing surprising about the sound of this song. Never forget that of all metal bands, the most important is Black Sabbath.
🤩👍💥💯

Ethan you are a Skid Row fan, what do you think about the new singer Erik Grönwall? I think he's amazing and fits Skid Row perfectly. Can't wait for the new album that will be released on October 14, 2022.
LOVE him! His voice is awesome. In my opinion, he’s a perfect fit for the band. -Ethan
Wow, you did not do the poet and the pendulum yet ;) If you do, please know it is about Tuomas his back depression after the band fired Tarja and the media, friends, fans all broke the band with awful reactions. Tuomas could t=not function anymore and his parents and friend were extremely worries. He was suicidal. His friend told him to write a song about what happened, his suffering and to kill himself in the song. Masterpiece! Often he asks the soundtech to turn off the microphone, because the lyrics are still hard for him to listen to.
Wow that is really deep. Thank you for the explanation ! We are huge Nightwish fans ! Larry
👍👍👍🇳🇱🤘🤘🤘
glad you are back, but there lots of much better bands
I am not sure what the appeal of this band is. They seem rather derivative. Is it because they have a female vocalist? When it comes to female talent reaction channels, such as this, are totally bypassing and missing out on the talent from the BLUES genre. Because, blues, as a musical form, is heavily ignored by most, if not all, reaction channels. Yes, I know, I am tapping an empty well when it comes to finding reactions to Blues artists. My frequency of visiting reaction channels reflects this. It is disappearing at an increasing rate
