@@RyanMear "Ihana" means lovely, you can say "Ihana mies" = lovely man or "ihana Floor" but it doesn't mean great and doesn't fit well for describing a video or a band.
I have never listened to a band like Nightwish. Everything they have done, at least everything I have so far listened to, I love. And, unlike with other bands, every time I start to listen to one of their longer epics, I always listen the whole way through, and never stop it early. It's testament to Tuomas's genius in composing that he keeps the listener enthralled, with all his transitions and switches. Even the Poet and the Pendulum and Greatest Show on Earth never seem as long as they are. This particular performance has a real wall of sound feel, like a James Bond theme. And then there's Emppu's solo. Just what is required, no more, no less, and none the less for it. 'Sculpted', as you say.
When listening to this song there always comes "Carpe diem" to my mind. Live every moment as best as you can, you do not know when the wolves (death) will come and call for you.
Some head banging for the fans, huh. There is only one person who can keep up with Floor doing windmills. See 12:07. How Tuomas does this and plays at the same time is amazing!
I find this true of the other members as well, but if you aint grinning when you see Emppu grin, you ain't paying attention lol. I can't help it, he starts cheesing and I grin too
Every morning I park my car in the car park and walk to the office. It used to take ten minutes, now I listen to this and I have it down to seven minutes. The energy in this performance is infectious. Floor's silent howl near the end is just awesome!!
Another Tuomas' favourite book is The Name of the Wind from Patrick Rothfuss' The Kingkiller Chronicle series. He made a song called Edema Ruh about the characters from it and it's amazing, lyrics fit perfectly for Nightwish as a band too.
It hasn't been played much live so there's no good live version of it (only acoustic) but here's a great fan-made video with backstage footage: ruclips.net/video/2BfakYUK-0Q/видео.html
One of my favourites, love the “adventure “ in the song...love the bouzouki Troy is playing, love emppu’s solo, love floor’s silent scream, love Troy and emppu playing together and hugging at the end...in Dutch: geweldig, wich is with a lot of g’s you kind of gurgle🤣
@@RyanMear Hey Ryan, special request from Emppu. If you please don't want to say "little vibrato" and "little bend" when you talk about him? He suggest using 'slight' instead 😁
🤘🤘🤘💖💖 I love this performance so much. It's heavy, the guys are having so much fun, the bass is incredible, Tuomas is windmilling enough to rock his keyboards loose, Floor is the Wolf Queen, Troy rocks the bouzouki, Emppu does his stuff, and Kai is his awesome self.
@@RyanMear Floor's 1st performance with NW was in the U.S. mid tour this has a bit of behind the scenes : Nightwish - Planet Hell (LIVE) -2012 -Floor Jansen ruclips.net/video/CRJ_csyXosU/видео.html
Funny that you mentioned that about the bass, it always had an important role in Nightwish but in this particular concert in Wembley it was notoriously high in the mix as well, and Marko's tone in that Warwick he plays is just amazing
I remember the first time I read the first book. I was so lost and so pulled in at the same time. Great series, especially considering how many years it took for him to write book 1 to book 7.
@@centimanj8916 I can see what you mean. It’s pretty “abstract” without a clear plot for a good portion of the book. I imagine that’s because he hadn’t really planned out a whole 7 book series when he wrote it so it didn’t have a traditional direction.
Somehow this is my favorite Nightwish song for a while now. Of course with so many great songs they tend to rotate, but this one holds on for some time now. It reminds me i need to read the books :)
Hey man, this band is something else, no other band I have ever heard is comparable. They just will never cease to amaze, now some songs you will like more than others, but I have yet to hear a Nightwish song and think, that one sucked. Glad you enjoying it, and obvious to me you are, make me happy.
This song has a special place in my heart !!! Not just because wolf is Estonian national animal but the windmill battle between Tuomas and Floor ....holy mother of Odin !!! Howl and thank you Ryan! NWSU
HOOOWL !!! Yes...this is the real deal....Buildup after Buildup....till - WEMBLEY LETS GOOOO !!! 12:03 Headbanging....and Floor nearly turns into a Werewolf Queen.....this one is pure energy.....Loved your reaction !...one good phrase would be "Unglaublich"...means unbelievable..Thanks Man !
2:20 - that's what I love about Roger Glover (and Glenn Hughes, too), bassist for Deep Purple. So underrated, which is shameful because, damn, he lays down some funky bass lines.
Thank you, Ryan, just loove your reacions. It is just fantastic to hear someone share his enthusiasm for the band and their performances! Warm regards, Wim
Your smile when it starts building and getting better & better is awesome. :) Emppus guitar sound is so sweet in his solo. I love how he is busy smiling at the crowd and slows a bit - just enjoying his life there. :) I am due for a reread of my Dark Towers series. I get a bit obsessed when I start though and voraciously read all the books non stop lol - it's so good.

im a big nightwish fan but many songs dont go on my playlist.nightwish is an other thing for me.i must see them and hear them.emotions came withe live shows ect.
@@RyanMear We were at the left side from Tuomas. Our places was pretty high. The sounds was pretty good, but ofcource they might have been much better near the mixer in the standing area. Overall we were happy and WE WERE HERE! Greetings from warm Finland😎☀️🇫🇮
Awesome reaction again, can't wait to see them tour the US. In Big arenas, IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR NIGHTWISH, I see a lot great metal bands in big Venues thanks to Slipknot, Megadeth and Ozzy.... Please add NIGHTWISH to the bill... 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
My No 3 NW song and again one I come back to for the joy of your reaction. Almost up there with Weak Fantasy but not quite. Best moment - many, but Floor's silent howl near the end... Oh, and of course, one of Floor's personal favourites. Lots of Nightwish you haven't done yet. (Hint, hint...)
Thanks dude. My absolute favourite NW song. And the best bit for me is not Floors singing, not Marko’s bass riffs or harmonisations, not Empuu’s brilliant solo work, not Troy’s ability to play any instrument or Kai’s drum fills, its seeing Tuomas head banging like a wild child at the end. This group of musicians are quite simply extraordinary. And hey, I for one would be more than happy if after every time you paused you went back to the beginning 🤣🤘🤯❤️🇬🇧
This song is such a joy to listen to. As much as I love this version from Wembley and still consider it the ultimate version, I was pleasantly surprised that Floor and Troy could pull it off without Marco in their Virtual show. They did really good on this song. What remains constant is Tuomas' (and Marco's) talent for song-writing, Marco's signature on this song, Floor's epic singing and stage presence and Emppu's solo and personality.💕
Love your reactions! And I DO LOVE NW! The title is taken from a King's novel called “Wolves of the Calla”. But the conception of the book has nothing to do with the text behide the song, it is far more inspired by the film "Dead Poets' Society". The main idea is - one must live his life the best he can, to strive for his aims, because the wolves are always 7 days behind you and they will cath you if your life is not of full value... and then you will be only dead meat. That's what Tuomas said in one interview couple of days ago...
I just found your channel last night and spent last night and today watching all your Nightwish reactions. Absolutely loved them. And, just an observation, you don't need to stop and tell us how it makes you feel because it really shows in your body language. Keep up the great work.
Love it! This is in my Spotify playlist. With Nightwish I allways Take the live version. They are just so good live. Can't wait to see them live in december. Have you seen their documents in you tube? I recommend to watch. They are so nice and funny people and you can see other side of the band.
That"s so freaking cool indeed sir, thank you very much for your very nice reaction to this amazing band, i enjoyed it, again!!! See you at the next one. Bye
Their style of playing is more like an orchestra than a rock band. Everyone plays their part in the piece. If you think of Toumas as a classical composer, this makes perfect sense. Nightwish is not his "band". They are players in his orchestra🙃
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan? The band is call "Lovebites" They all Beautiful Princesses metal band. But they are really really World class musicians. And they have a lot fans too. The song is "Winds of Transylvania" Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
Troy is playing his electric Bouzouki Ryan, you'll see it often. I'm led to believe Tuomas leaves the solos entirely up to Emppu himself, yep, no flash embellishments or show-off noodling, he does what the song needs; they all do. "Art, not ego". Every one is a banger Ryan, we keep telling you !!!! :-)
@@RyanMear Yep, there you are. You have seen him using the Uilleann pipes, low and high whistles, but I don't think yet his PRS and an Ebow. Could be wrong. Good reactions Ryan, I'm enjoying these, you are well read and a musician, this makes it all the more interesting.
@@RyanMear Our good friend and prolific Nightwish commentator Nimwey has conjoined the 8 part (I think) documentary about the band arranging and rehearsing the songs, it is rather unmissable and you do need 2hrs and 20 mins !!!! ruclips.net/video/FZa9fze_AFc/видео.html
Great reaction. Wanne do something different? How about some Floor stuff you do not expect. Try her version of Lady Gaga's Shallow (she kills it:) Or Floor in her former band Revamp with the song Disdain live at Graspop2010 (a more heavy Floor) Or want some soul? Floor doing the song Adagio Maybe you are a Phantom of the Opera fan , then check out her duet with Henk Poort (the official Dutch Phantom) Also nice is her cover of Iron Maiden's The Evil That Man Do with her first band After Forever (from 18 years ago) etc etc etc :)
@@RyanMear I enjoy your kind of reaction. Calm, not exaggerated, free from acting, just enjoy and say a few wise sentences. You could almost pass for a German. 😁 With you the music is in the foreground and not you. I really like that. And Btw. We also say holy shit and crap and fuck 😁😁. That barrier should be broken.
You can say "رائعين" in arabic which means they are amazing, "رائع" meaning he/this is amazing, or "رائعة" meaning she/this is amazing, or just "روعة" meaning amazing. Now for pronunciation I don't know how to explain them because some arabic alphabet aren't found in the english alphabet, so I would suggest simply copy and paste the word in Google translate and it will pronounce it for you. You can also say "مذهلين" which is pronounced like "moth'heleen" (th pronounced like in "the" or "that").
Regarding Emppu …agree totally about everything he plays is for/fits the song (every bend, pinch harmonic, bar dive, etc). He lets the music breathe. When I really started down my personal Nightwish rabbit hole the more I watched him it reminded me of this scene. ruclips.net/video/99R0rJsqEOc/видео.html
@@RyanMear after watching some of your own music I thought you’d appreciate that scene and that is so how Emppu plays … I can hear every note in my head of every solo he plays the minute I start listening to Nightwish songs. IMO he is one of, if not the most underrated guitarist I’ve ever heard.
@@Slick-ng5kf @Slick 1975 you listened to my music and thought I'd appreciate that? Thank you. That is nice, and thank you for checking out my music.... These videos are fun, but in the end, I want to be known for my music!
Great reaction as usual .....this is definitely a banger ....Floor and Marko sound so good together, i did miss him when they performed this song in the Virtual, Troy just doesnt have that power in his voice .
A little tip for you, drag your mouse away from the playbar after u hit play on the video, to make the playbar go away. It will raise the quality of your videos by alot :) That way you also take away all the lag from you videos. I like your reactions tho! Keep it up! Subbed!
I'm glad you're enjoying yourself ....... so do we !! And about trying something different next time, I also think you certainly enjoy something I suggested earlier. Please react to a TOP LINEUP OF MANY MUSICAL INTRUMENTS/SINGERS: The Source is the 9th studio album from *AYREON* , a progressive metal/rock opera project by Dutch musician Arjen (Ahr-Yun) Anthony Lucassen, released on April 28, 2017. *_”The Day That The World Breaks Down”_* is a song that features all 11 (quite well known) main guest singers (you’ll be surprised) and is taken from that album. Arjen himself is telling (in subtitles) who the singers are and which instruments are used and by which standards. Btw. This creative original clip is 13 min. long and I think you won’t regret it !! Official (Arjen’s) clip: ruclips.net/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/видео.html
Those lyrics remind me of that inflicted covid war on mankind: "The wolves, my love, will come, taking us to where dust once was a man (graveyard) Howl, seven days to the wolves, where will we be when they come ? Seven days to the poison (shot) and a place in heaven, time drawing near as they come to take us ! Is this where heroes and cowards part ways? Take the roads less travelled by, leave the city of the fools !"
A little piece of trivia that may have gotten by you and your Dark Tower past. In the intro of the Poet and the Pendulum, there is a reference to the storyteller being taken to the White Lands of Empithaca which was / is in End World in series.
For a reason or another 7 Days to the Wolves is one of my biggest favorites from NW. By the way, this channel seems to have a good run on my Holy Trinity : Nightwish, Band-Maid and The Warning (last one was a hint :-))
In Finnish, "ihana" means great! (EE- hah-nah) Or Kaunis (beautiful)- COW-nees.
THAT'S what I'm looking for! 🤜🤛
By the way...Ihana means wonderful🇫🇮
@@RyanMear "Ihana" means lovely, you can say "Ihana mies" = lovely man or "ihana Floor" but it doesn't mean great and doesn't fit well for describing a video or a band.
@@JackM. Yes "ihana" means lovely.
More like e-ha-na...loose the second h and keep the e short. I'm splitting hairs over here so don't mind me😂💝
Every Nightwish member serves the music they make. Humble.....
That silent scream by Floor towards the end though.... She’s freaking bad ass 💪🤯
Floor went in full Smaug mode🤓
I wouldn't say it was silent, it was a female alpha wolf roar to the crowd
Another reaction video said the perfect line about her silent scream. He said "I want her leading me into battle"
I have never listened to a band like Nightwish. Everything they have done, at least everything I have so far listened to, I love.

NW sang this at their virtual live show - a surprise with no Marko but it was great!
Troy did amazing in Marko's vocal parts, have to say I was worried about it when the song started but it was really good
A dive into the deep end with Nightwish. I listen, I have to listen, I need to listen to Nightwish every day. I love the beginning of this song.
Another Tuomas' favourite book is The Name of the Wind from Patrick Rothfuss' The Kingkiller Chronicle series. He made a song called Edema Ruh about the characters from it and it's amazing, lyrics fit perfectly for Nightwish as a band too.

They all Beautiful Princesses metal band. But they are really really World class musicians.
And they have a lot fans too.
The song is "Winds of Transylvania"
Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
I believe Troy is playing an Irish bouzouki (or maybe the original Greek version), but I could be wrong and it could just be a mandolin or mandola.
You got it👍Bouzouki

And Btw. We also say holy shit and crap and fuck 😁😁. That barrier should be broken.
Heilig scheisse! Good to know, and thank you👍🤘 I was worried I'd start to get booring
@@RyanMear No not for me. 🤘
Hope you have a fast recovery after the surgery brother
Thank you!
lols, Im here too
Watching you enyoing Nightwish is like looking at the mirror
You can say "رائعين" in arabic which means they are amazing, "رائع" meaning he/this is amazing, or "رائعة" meaning she/this is amazing, or just "روعة" meaning amazing. Now for pronunciation I don't know how to explain them because some arabic alphabet aren't found in the english alphabet, so I would suggest simply copy and paste the word in Google translate and it will pronounce it for you.
You can also say "مذهلين" which is pronounced like "moth'heleen" (th pronounced like in "the" or "that").
Good job
Troy is playing a Bouzouki an Irish mandolin .
Yep, thanks. My friend John Kennedy, from Kennedy's Kitchen, has one he plays over here. I just spaced the name while recording lol
Hi Ryan, here`s Rian...... what a great song to start the day, isn`t it?
Hello, Rian! Yes.. actually, believe it or not, I'm listening to it right now🤘
Regarding Emppu …agree totally about everything he plays is for/fits the song (every bend, pinch harmonic, bar dive, etc). He lets the music breathe. When I really started down my personal Nightwish rabbit hole the more I watched him it reminded me of this scene. ruclips.net/video/99R0rJsqEOc/видео.html
Wow, I've never seen that... but I've had that talk before
@@RyanMear after watching some of your own music I thought you’d appreciate that scene and that is so how Emppu plays … I can hear every note in my head of every solo he plays the minute I start listening to Nightwish songs. IMO he is one of, if not the most underrated guitarist I’ve ever heard.
@@Slick-ng5kf Watched the scene(great)
Reminded me of David Gilmoure :)
@@Slick-ng5kf @Slick 1975 you listened to my music and thought I'd appreciate that? Thank you. That is nice, and thank you for checking out my music....
These videos are fun, but in the end, I want to be known for my music!
☺👍Greetings from the Netherlands
Greetings!
Sorry to hear you got hurt! Hope all goes well!
Thank you, me too!
Great reaction as usual .....this is definitely a banger ....Floor and Marko sound so good together, i did miss him when they performed this song in the Virtual, Troy just doesnt have that power in his voice .
Yeah....Marko is a rare bird. Good of them to not try to mimic him.
A little tip for you, drag your mouse away from the playbar after u hit play on the video, to make the playbar go away. It will raise the quality of your videos by alot :) That way you also take away all the lag from you videos. I like your reactions tho! Keep it up! Subbed!
I appreciate that
Hi Ryan, try saying 'geweldig' (Dutch for awesome) hahaha.
UK too
In 10:15...."turn every poet loose"....Nightwish by Tuomas.
I'm glad you're enjoying yourself ....... so do we !!
And about trying something different next time, I also think you certainly enjoy something I suggested earlier. Please react to a TOP LINEUP OF MANY MUSICAL INTRUMENTS/SINGERS: The Source is the 9th studio album from *AYREON* , a progressive metal/rock opera project by Dutch musician Arjen (Ahr-Yun) Anthony Lucassen, released on April 28, 2017. *_”The Day That The World Breaks Down”_* is a song that features all 11 (quite well known) main guest singers (you’ll be surprised) and is taken from that album. Arjen himself is telling (in subtitles) who the singers are and which instruments are used and by which standards.
Btw. This creative original clip is 13 min. long and I think you won’t regret it !!
Official (Arjen’s) clip: ruclips.net/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/видео.html
Please, do 10th man down from Buenos Aires gig. Like are all Nightwish songs.
Hi hope u ok it steve in uk again huge nightwish fan got all cds dvds rareities.i love this song
Hey Steven! Yeah it's a good one for sure
Those lyrics remind me of that inflicted covid war on mankind:
"The wolves, my love, will come, taking us to where dust once was a man (graveyard)
Howl, seven days to the wolves, where will we be when they come ?
Seven days to the poison (shot) and a place in heaven, time drawing near as they come to take us !
Is this where heroes and cowards part ways?
Take the roads less travelled by, leave the city of the fools !"
Yep, not touching that, you be you!
Yep this is where heroes and cowards part ways
Try out Nightwish high hopes pink loyd cover... Il bet u like it
A little piece of trivia that may have gotten by you and your Dark Tower past. In the intro of the Poet and the Pendulum, there is a reference to the storyteller being taken to the White Lands of Empithaca which was / is in End World in series.
Yes! When I heard it the first time, I thought of Discordia... but somehow Empathica didn't click.

So I did a little googling bc well 2021, but let's "Fire it up" ! Lol
........omigod
@@RyanMear hey now, it was pretty good, those abc people loved it.
Horses backround video 8.22->
For a reason or another 7 Days to the Wolves is one of my biggest favorites from NW.
By the way, this channel seems to have a good run on my Holy Trinity : Nightwish, Band-Maid and The Warning (last one was a hint :-))
I see what ya did there
I'm trying not to grin when some sweet thing is smiling.....did't succeed🤭♥️ Emppu on ihgu.
F'ing awesome is what I would have said from Wales UK
Cheers!
