He, he! You noticed the time traveler :) completely disconnected from the surrounding reality.. My theory is that in the future, when time travel will be accessible, this unique concert will be a tourist attraction. Imagine, having the opportunity to go back in time to crowdsurf in Wacken 2013, when Floor is on stage with Nightwish.. Thank you for deciding to continue exploring. Of course, you have a new subscriber here. All the best, from Romania!
Thank you so much for watching and the support. Your links on your community page will be a great guide. Thank you again your assistance is much appreciated and yes I would love to be able to go back and experience this live!
@@kevinjennings238 Amy Lee is a very talented singer, many of Evanescence's songs have made history. It's kind of sad to me that there's this false competition, as if talent could be measured with a ruler. Likewise, in the case of Tarja - Floor, two good friends who were never in antagonistic positions.
There is absolutely no need to apologise at all. Both Floor and Amy are awesome and we are lucky to be able to enjoy their vocal talent. You will love this journey you are on now :D
Floor singing the phone book live on a Dutch radio station: ruclips.net/user/shortsgmjIHx10g1U They ambushed her with it as she was there to sing her latest solo single. After she finished singing the single, the radio DJs had to tell the listeners that, ya, that was really live. Something to know about Nightwish concert DVDs - they don't fix anything. It's just mixed, burned, & shipped. Tuomas (the band leader, keyboardist and composer) said in an interview that they leave the mistakes in place as it's a live performance so they want the DVD to be complete with the warts. There's no autotune or pitch correction on her voice - that's how she sounds live. If you want evidence of this approach, when listening to "Ghost River" from this concert you'll hear Emppu accidentally knock a string on his guitar producing a "burp" just before the song kicks off. Dead easy to remove in post, but it's left in there. Very refreshing approach considering the amount of overproduction in modern music.
I love you bands/artists aren’t perfect and there is something to be said about being raw and natural. Love that. Thank you for watching and I just watched her sing the phone book and of course it was beautiful
@@ProxxReacts They DJs had a laugh as they said that finding a phonebook was the hard part. There's a full version of that video, all in Dutch though. Only auto translate available. Her "Oh sh!t" face when they pull out the book, gets me. The fanbase has said for years that she could sing the phonebook and it would be amazing. The DJs put it to the test. ;)
No need to apologize. We here in the states really have no one to compare to other than Amy Lee. Yes, Floor is in a league of her own. You have just barely scratched the surface of what she is capable of. New sub here.
@@ProxxReacts I was one of the people who pointed out that comparison, but I personally meant it as a joke for other nightwish fans more so than as a piece of criticism of your reaction :) I do understand that for a lot of people there simply aren't many references for female vocals in rock/metal. Thank you for continuing the journey!
The people who comment about reactors mentioning Amy Lee seem to forget that Nightwish Ghost Love Score is usually the reactors' introduction to European symphonic metal, they have not heard anything like it before. Particularly for Americans, the closest comparision they can make is to a female fronted rock group, and Evanescence and Amy Lee is the obvious choice as they are well known.
Welcome to the Nightwish family 🤗 Don't worry; we're used to people hearing Floor for the first time comparing her to Amy Lee. Nobody blames you for that.😂 You don't even need to ask whether you should continue to react to Nightwish. The Nightwish Army can never see enough of this stuff! For example, I watch at least one whole concert video a day and I know that many others do it too. Btw; after a game of my football club I can't get a peep out at all - there comes only a croak from me. 🤣 Greetings from Kelsea - NWA Germany 😘
Yes!!!! You noticed our time traveler, probably thinking 'what is this?, how did i get here' 😂😂. I think it's so funny that somebody in the Nightwish Army gave him this name. Thanks for your reaction, see you at the next one, greetings from the Netherlands, bye!
EVERY SONG in this Wacken performance was written for one of the two previous lead singers. Not with Floor in mind. Yet she absolutely kills it ! The entire band is so talented!
@@ProxxReacts The time traveler was send to a Bob Dylan concert in 1970, but came by mistake in this concert and he is confused and thinking wtf am i doing here😂😂
It's not your fault for bringing up "the person that should supposedly remain nameless" (lol). Many, many, many Americans and Canadians make this statement. You are doing fantastic and should not have to apologize for stating your opinion. This is what a first time reactor does, and hardcore (not normal) Nightwish fans should get over themselves. Keep up the good work, friend! New Subscriber here. By the way, she DID sing a phone book......just search for it on RUclips.
@@ProxxReacts yes, as you explore this band further you'll find the band and Floor are tremendously tight and all have a great sense of humor like with the phone book thing she's a darling
Hello @ProxxReacts, Nightwish Army Italian Division here. The truth is that Floor can sing what she wants, when she wants and how she wants. She is from another planet. ♥
Other singers sing what they can, but the GODDESS ( as I call the best female Voice I`ve ever heard in my 68 years on that planet) sings what SHE wants to.... Funny that you mentioned the phonebook......others told you already where to find...... It was a running gag amongst HER fans that SHE even could sing a phonebook and it would sound beautifull..... Somehow that Dutch TV-station got knowledge of that and challenged HER out of the blue to sing a phonebook.....right before a TV premiere of one of the songs of HER first solo-album..... Since then HER fans are waiting for a solo-album with grandma`s receipes....🤣🤣🤣 Greetings from Nightwish Army South Germany. Rock On Man 🤘🤘🤘
No need to apologize. I only heard of Nightwish 3 years ago. And Floor blew me away. As an American we only have a few singers we can compare to. Music industry in this country sucks 🤘🤘🤘🤘Great reaction 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
NW Army Canada thanks you sir for reacting to this song. I have subscribed to follow you on your trip down the rabbit hole! Sir everyone tries to compare "Floor" to other female vocalist they know so no worries k, much love Thank you waiting for the next one!
This entire 15 song concert is a big wow. Worth noting that all the songs in this show were written for the 2 prior singers. Floor had Ghost Love Score added to the tour set list because she wanted to sing it, and added some of her own touches and an extended ending which the band loved. The next albums were written for Floor, and Tuomas really challenged her range and skill in some songs. btw, Marco, the bassist, has a credit for sound editing for the DVD. He has many skills of his own and you will find he is a great singer as well. My wife now understands my fascination with Floor after watching and enjoying Nightwish's 2 full-length streamed Virtual Concerts in May 2021, during covid time. I got to see them live in Canada May 2022, in a smaller 2300 sear theatre club venue without all the display screens and pyro. They put on a great show in the more simple intimate settings as well they usually play in the Americas.
We are used to the Amy Lee comparison from especially the USA. She is a very accomplished singer and pianist. But there are so many female singers that are on her level as you might discover if you widen your symphonic metal path. What makes Floor special is her versatility, diction, tuning and empathy. By the way she did sing part of a phone book on Dutch Radio which is somewhere on RUclips LOL
Hello I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have 2 daughters (Freja & Lucy) Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 3 octaves (C3 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish. Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she cool singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016. From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020. Greetings from the .
Nightwish Army is the best fandom in the world, not without our share of idiosyncrasies, but on the whole it's the most welcoming and accepting group of fans I've ever had the privilege to be a part of. The first time you hear any band your mind is going to draw comparisons from your personal experiences with music, it's completely understandable. Everybody has their favorite era and singer, but I think most would agree that they are all truly special in their own way. And although we have our preferences, there's no wrong version of any performance to react to, you can always watch the others too!
haha, well welcome aboard, and as some commenters have already stated don't be concerned about the comparison it is inevitable as so many other reacters have experienced, that you find yourself grasping for words to describe them cause they are that unique. And you will find that every song you listen to out of their vast catalog becomes your new best favorite. I'm sure Gabriel has introduced you to them and they have so many great concerts to choose from, Wacken, Wembley, Tempere, Rio De Janeiro, and many more. Only one caution if I may that when you get around (way, way down the line) to another production number of their's like "Ghost Love Score" called "Poet and the Pendulum" please take time beforehand to research the history because it is a very poignant, sensitive, and personal number relating to the band and (in my opinion) I think it will add to the understanding of the song, otherwise enjoy your fantastic journey, I"m not going to give you suggestions cause you'll probably shortly get swamped by them LOL
Thank you for reacting to NW. This will be fun watching you go down the NW and Floor rabbit hole. I have been a fan of NW since the late 90's. I fell in love with Tarja and was crushed when the split happened. But, I enjoyed the Annette years and was finally able to see them live several times with her. But now I believe the addition of Floor has elevated the band to it's highest level. I am a huge fan of Floor. I began listening to her with After Forever. Welcome to the family and I hope you follow the the General (Gabriel) in his recommendations. His list is about as good as it gets. It will set you up to be well prepared for the important milestones that lay ahead in the history of the band. Cheers!
Do not apologize to the bullies. This is your channel, and you get to do it in your way! I started my Nightwish exloration just over a year ago and have not looked back once. Most of their songs require several listenings for me to catch even a portion of the "story" that they tell. It is exciting to this old American who just found multitudes of new music, bands, genres etc. Welcome and I wish you happy travels down this rabbit hole.
Definitely Storytime. Keep up the good work. Not your fault the American music industry slept on Nightwish for so long - and the rest of so much incredibly good material from Europe and Scandinavia. Anything which makes the world bigger and brighter is great! Your channel! You do you! Love your enthusiasm.
This song is from their Imaginaerium album, a concept album base on an old composer on his death bed relieving the memories of his life. One of Tuomas's favorite topics or themes in his music is lost innocence. As a poet and artist Tuomas values the sense of wonder and imagination that innocent children have. In Storytime the composer is remembering the joy he got from childhood tales, thus the references to Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland (Tuomas often uses literary references in his lyrics and as inspiration for songs). It is through these childhood stories that we discover ourselves and who we are (I am the story that will read you real). Song is inspired by a popular British Christmas movie The Snowman. Storytime" was born when Tuomas wondered why no-one had made a remake of the film, and pondered on what his version of the score to the scene in which "Walking in the Air" plays would sound like. Tuomas "How would it feel to take a midnight flight with a snowman through the most wondrous landscapes, like in the classic animated Yuletide film? The meaning of our very existence is created though stories, tales and imagination. They are at the very core of humanity." Walking in the Air is a very popular Christmas song in the UK and Finland and Nightwish did a beautiful cover of it with their first singer Tarja that is worth reacting to. ruclips.net/video/9icKP1b44TA/видео.htmlsi=bVAOljw7uzvbg2wj From the 1998 Wishes to Eternity concert.
Thank you, very nice reaction! Just Nightwish doing Nightwish things! And as you have surely noticed, although they are all outstanding , none of them standout Well, except our Valkyrie Goddess, ofc. Nightwish is their own genre and no other band comes close to the level they are at. Never, in the history of music entertainment, have a set of skills and talent collided in such powerful manner. Tuomas is a true genius as a composer and with lyrics.
We might have told you already but it might help you to know Tuomas uses several pseudonyms to refer to himself in various Nightwish songs which he writes from experiences, observation or imagination, he says he is a man with a boy's heart (child-man), a grown-up Peter Pan, and you will see that directly in places even, when he uses boy narrators sometimes in place of himself. Digging into his lyrics is almost a second bite of the cherry. He will also use poet, dreamer, writer/song writer or ocean soul - Tuomas has an affinity for the ocean, he wanted to become a marine biologist; keep all this in mind for later, it will help. So here, "A writer by a fire. . . . . ." Tuomas is speaking to you directly, he is the story-teller, the “writer by the fire” - "Took a journey into a child-man’s heart" would be Tuomas remembering the childhood stories, the Peter Pan escapades of his imagination and fascinations, but the boy has grown up from being a Peter-Pan, the crib is empty. I am: the voice of Never-Never land, the empty crib, the journey, the destination, the home, Tuomas says, he's taking you back to his childhood fascinations. Floor sings the bridge "Neverland, innocence, dreams of every man. . . . . ." in a high operatic head voice, a pitch you might expect from a very, very excited small boy. Now, go look at all the lyrics and the references to the childhood classic stories and it all drops into place; it's one of the songs where it is easy to dig inside Tuomas' metaphoric lyrics and unravel them. Apology not accepted, it was never needed in the first place. Good stuff, you keep at it, Nightwish will not disappoint. (Edit: "the core of all life is a limitless chest of tales" - this links to another song, we'll tell you when you get there ! 🙂 ) The best regards from me here, the seriously superannuated British overseas detachment of The Nightwish Army, SW France.
You are doing just fine, truly, so new sub here, you’v earned it fair and square! To be honest, i’v seen and heard Nightwish and Floor countless of times over the years, and began loving the comments of the reactors, like you also, “maybe” even more. So, don't worry, I like what I see and hear!….And it’s oke that “ little doggie’ wants to sing along with Floor.
thank you for continuing on this journey. cant wait to see the next one! NWA California here. As far as comparing, many Americans have said the same thing , since American radio doesn't play Nightwish so no frame of reference here other than what we know and people look for familiarity ... so no worries. Enjoy the new found journey :) . Nightwish Lead me to Sabaton, Epica, Ayreon, and Tommy Johansson ( Id love to see He And Floor do a Duet ) as well as a few others.
I still remember first time I saw by large TV screen in Thailand with entire of concert in 2013 but probably after life in Wacken (the owner said he use steal channel technique ) I can't not remember what my friends said in the meeting coz this concert so impressive in every moment !!
Lol, I just knew that people would comment when you said "her" name. :) Don't let it get you down. To be completely honest, I don't really know why more people don;t just accept the fact that when it's a reactors first time hearing Floor, and they've just heard the first few lines of vocals for Ghost Love Score for 20 seconds, it's EASY to make that comparison. People just need to get a little chill about it. To be fair to the other camp however, I've watched well over 3,000 Nightwish reactions, trust me, the number of times this gets said, I can appreciate how it could grate a fan :) Kind Regards from the UK.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support. I understand passionate fanbases so I can get it. I just didn’t like upsetting many great people from this wonderful fanbase!
Don't apologise, everyone has a reference point and that's fine. Great to see you continuing with this amazing band - it's a seriously deep rabbit hole and I think you're gonna love it. Sub'd for the Nightwish journey 🤘
Don't worry, peaple must understand that, if you do not have much to compare, a few tones can make you think of something you might have heard before. Many north americans compare Floor to Amy Lee in the first one or two minutes. (And Amy is a great singer\musician) Also you don't have to tiptoe on our behalve. This is your show so you be you. Greeting from the Netherlands. I liked both reactions and subscribed. Keep up the good work.
Nothing wrong with mentioning other singers. Or even compare. We all think differently. Some people tend to get upset if other people don´t think like they do.
Which is understandable. Being an empath I can feel things for others and I just didn’t want to people to take what I said the wrong way so I thought it was important to address it! Thank you so much for watching!

Great reaction. No apologies necessary. And everyone is in love with Floor. Next you can go heavier with Romanticide, or “start a little bit softer… with Ever Dream.” Or the opener, Dark Chest of Wonders, all from same Wacken show. Enjoy the journey. You’ve only just begun. - NW Army North Texas division.
They should not make you feel you need to apologize, they should realize that almost every reactor at some point has made the connection. And same as you it is a "reminder / makes me think of" and not a competition. We all connect our memories to sound, smell and taste and in this case the sound is familiar. People should just take a moment and think of what they are saying and stop making other people sad because they think their opinion is so important.... You do you. Enjoy being able to hear all those songs for the first time!
Dont stress about the Amy Lee comment, it happens all the time until they hear more of Floor. It is your channel and you said nothing offensive in fact it's funny because it happens so often. Glad you decided to continue your journey, you will not be disappointed. See you for the next one 😊🇬🇧
You have officially caught the Nightwish bug Proxx …happy to say there is no known cure at this time…nor is anyone working on one😉👍 Subscribed so I can follow you on this epic journey…🤘🤘
Nightwish Army Wisconsin Chapter here. Funny you mention “she could sing a phone book”. There IS a video on RUclips of her singing a Dutch phone book. 😂😂😂
Hi, Nightwish army member from west Germany coming in. You don't need to apologize for the Amy Lee reference, we NW Fans are used to it and will forgive you 😊 nice second reaction I guess we have a new NW army member here. Subscribed for more 🤟 well done ! Fun fact: their is actually a video on RUclips were Floor is singing a phonebook 😁
I'm an American who lives in South Florida, I grew up with Evanescence and I saw Amy Lee live and she's amazing, but Floor is definitely in a WHOLE other level! She is Classically trained and took Opera for a year. NO need to apologize!!! As Americans the music industry here sucks and if it wasn't for RUclips I would've NEVER heard of Nightwish or of Floor Jansen (YAWN-sen), which includes her previous bands After Forever and ReVamp and other Rock projedts like Northward and her Solo career which is NOT rock or metal but more mainstream. Her range is INSANE!!! She can go from Opera to death metal growls!!!
Again a great reaction, thank you. You really don't need to apologize. The Nightwish Army should be used to this comparison from American reactors. I am sorry for American listeners that the US music industry limits their possibilities to listen to bands that do not come from the US so much. I have the feeling that new innovative music now mainly comes from other countries than the USA, that is really a pity. In Europe there are so many great metal bands but also in Japan, Mexico, Brazil etc. So much new to discover, e.g. thanks to RUclips. Nightwish is not new, they have been founded in 1996, but they have evolved a lot during the years. I especially love the last three albums but there are also a lot of great songs on former albums; at Wacken concert 2013 you can hear a lot of them. The songs at this concert all have been written for the two former singers but Floor made them her own. By the way, congratulations! You have discovered the time traveller. He is such a foreign body in the crowd you cannot overlook him.
Next songs to react to: Ever Dream, Romanticide, Ghost River, Song of Myself Nightwish - Ever Dream (Wacken 2013) ruclips.net/video/YwGSAFarHRg/видео.html NIGHTWISH - Romanticide (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO) ruclips.net/video/zz_7OCCQlXs/видео.html Nightwish - Ghost River (Wacken 2013) ruclips.net/video/05eitd-EA6I/видео.html Nightwish - Song of Myself LIVE ruclips.net/video/lQu5QjidHWg/видео.html
I think it’s normal for people to have reference points when presented with something new. Many people do compare but it’s not always the case. You gave the perfect comment. “No, don’t end!” 👍🤟
Hey, you should definitely check out Floor Jansen Solo stuff and previous bands before Nightwish, After Forever her first band, Ayreon, and Revamp, awesome 😎
you discovered the 'timetraveler' in the crowd! :D No idea who he is, but looks like he's in a different place :D And you experienced a Floorgasm, congratulations :D
@@Mytwocentsisallicanafford then he must have been very busy, since there were 82.000 people. My guess...since Wacken is a festival, he was there to see some other bands and was staring in disbelief ;)
Some of the Nightwish army soldiers can be a little too protective or too passionate of the band. That is something that "unfortunately" everyone gets a taste of after doing a first Nightwish reaction video. But really great seeing your Nightwish reactions! 😎
Hi Proxx and greetings once again from Indonesia. No need to apologise my friend, water under the bridge and all that😄. Great reaction again, and yes you noticed the guy waiting for Scottie to 'beam him up'..... Everdream usually comes next, but it's up to you, we'll follow your journey. New subscriber by the way.
As an American, it's more common to know Amy and her band, Nightwish is not as well known here. No need to apologize ! Welcome to Nightwish. hello from Florida. You may also love Epica and Simone the singer...a friend of Floor's.
😂🤣 Another AL incident 😅!!! I heard you saying her name and i thought: Ouh, ouh, ouh 😲!!! I knew it. Don't apologize and we are nice, usually we are nice... 🤣😂 Thank you for your reaction 💝, Greetings from Germany 🤗 alex. Ps. Lucy Lawless , XENA , is a professional educated vocalist. 🤔 Don't really know why i ...😒🤓
Please sir, don’t apologize. It is just funny that American people always compare Floor with Amy Lee( I love her voice too) When you are further on your journey (I hope) you will understand why we are so passionate about Floor (Dutch) because she can’t do anything (please listen for your self the aria she sings by Puccini on a Dutch tv show, it is beautiful) But Floor is also a real metalhead, and she can scream or growl like a big dude if the lyrics ask for it) I love to travel with you on your Nightwish journey❤️ Greets NW army division Holland
@@ProxxReacts Actually she sung the Dutch PHONEBOOK 😂, a Dutch radio program let her sing the phonebook, see if she could deal with it❤️ Link: ruclips.net/video/FtPpYbChVHs/видео.htmlsi=EcbPAGtap0TWlK26
Sir., there is absolutely nothing wrong or in any way improper in you mentioning that Floor reminded you of Amy Lee. Some people just need to get a life. Amy Lee is a very talented singer. She has been very successful. In time, usually a very short time most people come to realize that Floor is a cut above. A substantial cut above. She is in my opinion the most thrilling vocalist, I have heard in my many years. She has an incredible way of searing my soul, and grabbing my heart, to rip to shreds. Welcome aboard the Nightwish train. Enjoy your trip, and ignore the idiots. After all, this is the internet.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song that encourages listeners to embark on their own journey of discovery, setting sail on the limitless "chest of tales" to explore the limitless possibilities of imagination. P.S. As far as I'm concerned, I have no issue with people having their idiosyncratic tastes in music & I also think that Amy Lee is a good vocalist.
Floor just draws you in, enthralls and seduces you. The whole band is incredible .... they make me grin like a maniac one minute, then bring tears to my eyes the next. Tuomas is a genius of epic proportions, and in Floor (along with the rest of the band) he has the perfect tool to manifest his vision and present something truly extraordinary. Together, they have a way of touching your soul. All the very best from the Canberra Regiment, Australian Division, Nightwish Army. 🤘
and so ithink you have the nightwish-army on board....many say this before they heard floor in other genres.floor can sing sing everything.pop,rock,metal,soft.hear hear please on "the best singers".i think you are blown away from a metal singer....
No need to apologize. Nightwish and Floor Jansen is only good vibes. You are doing just fine. Keep them Nightwish bangers come. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.👍😃
@@ProxxReacts Search for the Beste Zanger clips that have the intro/outro bits with English subtitles (unless you speak Dutch) to get full context and the reactions of the other singers.
Amy Lee is the first name that comes to lots of listeners, if only because she's the big female voice most American metal fans are familiar with. People really need to just chill out over the comparison. (I think of Anne Wilson, not Amy, but that's because I'm an old fossil.) I would say that Simone Simons, of Epica, is another in the same category - but like Floor, not so well known in the US because she's also based in Europe, and Epica has a mostly European fan base. Floor and Simone are actually good friends, and you'd probably enjoy watching the two of them doing a duet in "Sancta Terra" (yet another knockout live performance.) Fun fact: there actually is video on YT of Floor singing from a phone book.
He, he! You noticed the time traveler :) completely disconnected from the surrounding reality.. My theory is that in the future, when time travel will be accessible, this unique concert will be a tourist attraction.

Floor singing the phone book live on a Dutch radio station: ruclips.net/user/shortsgmjIHx10g1U
They ambushed her with it as she was there to sing her latest solo single. After she finished singing the single, the radio DJs had to tell the listeners that, ya, that was really live.
Something to know about Nightwish concert DVDs - they don't fix anything. It's just mixed, burned, & shipped. Tuomas (the band leader, keyboardist and composer) said in an interview that they leave the mistakes in place as it's a live performance so they want the DVD to be complete with the warts.

The people who comment about reactors mentioning Amy Lee seem to forget that Nightwish Ghost Love Score is usually the reactors' introduction to European symphonic metal, they have not heard anything like it before. Particularly for Americans, the closest comparision they can make is to a female fronted rock group, and Evanescence and Amy Lee is the obvious choice as they are well known.
Thank you so much for watching!
No need to apologise. Your channel and your opinion. It is an obvious comparison on hearing just one Nightwish/Floor song. Just enjoy your journey.
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. My intent was never to upset such a passionate fanbase which I love.
Welcome to the Nightwish family 🤗
Don't worry; we're used to people hearing Floor for the first time comparing her to Amy Lee. Nobody blames you for that.😂
You don't even need to ask whether you should continue to react to Nightwish. The Nightwish Army can never see enough of this stuff! For example, I watch at least one whole concert video a day and I know that many others do it too.
Btw; after a game of my football club I can't get a peep out at all - there comes only a croak from me. 🤣
Greetings from Kelsea - NWA Germany 😘
Thank you so much for watching and the support. It is appreciated!
Yes!!!! You noticed our time traveler, probably thinking 'what is this?, how did i get here' 😂😂. I think it's so funny that somebody in the Nightwish Army gave him this name. Thanks for your reaction, see you at the next one, greetings from the Netherlands, bye!
Thank you so much for watching and the support!
@@ProxxReacts or perhaps a Security agent who doesn't know his part in all of this.
Isn't he a piece of cardboard with a photo?
I think he's the only Anette fan who didn't get the message that this singer would be in tune for the whole concert.
The time traveler! He thought he'd jaunted to Hawaii. What a shock.
Floor is trained in Opera. Oh & if you ever get goosebumps, chills, etc., those are what we in the Nightwish Army call Floorgasms! 😉😊
Well I get wait to get more!
@ can’t wait to hear more! 😊
Chills? Floorgasms everywhere!🤩
Yes for sure! Thank you so much for watching!
EVERY SONG in this Wacken performance was written for one of the two previous lead singers. Not with Floor in mind. Yet she absolutely kills it ! The entire band is so talented!
Yes they are!
The time traveler was spotted!
He looked totally out of place. Crazy.
@@ProxxReacts The time traveler was send to a Bob Dylan concert in 1970, but came by mistake in this concert and he is confused and thinking wtf am i doing here😂😂

It's not your fault for bringing up "the person that should supposedly remain nameless" (lol). Many, many, many Americans and Canadians make this statement. You are doing fantastic and should not have to apologize for stating your opinion. This is what a first time reactor does, and hardcore (not normal) Nightwish fans should get over themselves. Keep up the good work, friend!
New Subscriber here. By the way, she DID sing a phone book......just search for it on RUclips.
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. I can’t believe she actually did that lol. I had no clue. Thank you for your support.
I wholeheartedly concur!
@@ProxxReacts yes, as you explore this band further you'll find the band and Floor are tremendously tight and all have a great sense of humor like with the phone book thing she's a darling
I wholeheartedly concur too !
Hello @ProxxReacts, Nightwish Army Italian Division here. The truth is that Floor can sing what she wants, when she wants and how she wants. She is from another planet. ♥
Yes she can. Thank you so much for watching!
Other singers sing what they can, but the GODDESS ( as I call the best female Voice I`ve ever heard in my 68 years on that planet) sings what SHE wants to....
Funny that you mentioned the phonebook......others told you already where to find......
It was a running gag amongst HER fans that SHE even could sing a phonebook and it would sound beautifull.....
Somehow that Dutch TV-station got knowledge of that and challenged HER out of the blue to sing a phonebook.....right before a TV premiere of one of the songs of HER first solo-album.....
Since then HER fans are waiting for a solo-album with grandma`s receipes....🤣🤣🤣

I feel bad that there are people in the NW fandom who approach a new reactor in a way to make them feel bad about an innocent comment.
No worries. I understand how passionate fanbases are and I get it and can be protective. Thank you so much for watching and the support.
No need to apologize. I only heard of Nightwish 3 years ago. And Floor blew me away. As an American we only have a few singers we can compare to. Music industry in this country sucks 🤘🤘🤘🤘Great reaction 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much for watching!!
Dive deep into this band. Every song is different. Every singer is different. Every song is a production. You are in for a great trip
Thank you!
NW Army Canada thanks you sir for reacting to this song. I have subscribed to follow you on your trip down the rabbit hole! Sir everyone tries to compare "Floor" to other female vocalist they know so no worries k, much love Thank you waiting for the next one!
Thank you so much for watching and your support is appreciated!
@@ProxxReacts "chills" are what we call "Floorgasms! I too get them even after many viewings!
This entire 15 song concert is a big wow. Worth noting that all the songs in this show were written for the 2 prior singers. Floor had Ghost Love Score added to the tour set list because she wanted to sing it, and added some of her own touches and an extended ending which the band loved.
The next albums were written for Floor, and Tuomas really challenged her range and skill in some songs.
btw, Marco, the bassist, has a credit for sound editing for the DVD. He has many skills of his own and you will find he is a great singer as well.
My wife now understands my fascination with Floor after watching and enjoying Nightwish's 2 full-length streamed Virtual Concerts in May 2021, during covid time. I got to see them live in Canada May 2022, in a smaller 2300 sear theatre club venue without all the display screens and pyro. They put on a great show in the more simple intimate settings as well they usually play in the Americas.
We are used to the Amy Lee comparison from especially the USA. She is a very accomplished singer and pianist. But there are so many female singers that are on her level as you might discover if you widen your symphonic metal path. What makes Floor special is her versatility, diction, tuning and empathy. By the way she did sing part of a phone book on Dutch Radio which is somewhere on RUclips LOL
I saw the video and like I thought it was beautiful. That you so much for watching and the support!
Thank you for the great video. No need to apologize, especially if you don't know anything about the group.
Thank you so much for watching and your support. Loving my journey so far!
I concur.
Hello
I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here.
She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have 2 daughters (Freja & Lucy)
Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 3 octaves (C3 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish.
Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she cool singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020.

You don't need to apologize......Amy is fantastic, love her , she's like kobe , Floors Michael
Thank you so much for watching!
Nightwish Army is the best fandom in the world, not without our share of idiosyncrasies, but on the whole it's the most welcoming and accepting group of fans I've ever had the privilege to be a part of. The first time you hear any band your mind is going to draw comparisons from your personal experiences with music, it's completely understandable. Everybody has their favorite era and singer, but I think most would agree that they are all truly special in their own way. And although we have our preferences, there's no wrong version of any performance to react to, you can always watch the others too!
Thank you for watching and The Army has been fantastic. Really enjoying sharing my journey with all of you!
Another soul well and truly snatched by our Valkyrie Queen!
Yep. I officially hooked.
Scottish division checking in.....goosebumps and that grin..Floor takes another.😂
Thank you so much for watching!
haha, well welcome aboard, and as some commenters have already stated don't be concerned about the comparison it is inevitable as so many other reacters have experienced, that you find yourself grasping for words to describe them cause they are that unique. And you will find that every song you listen to out of their vast catalog becomes your new best favorite. I'm sure Gabriel has introduced you to them and they have so many great concerts to choose from, Wacken, Wembley, Tempere, Rio De Janeiro, and many more. Only one caution if I may that when you get around (way, way down the line) to another production number of their's like "Ghost Love Score" called "Poet and the Pendulum" please take time beforehand to research the history because it is a very poignant, sensitive, and personal number relating to the band and (in my opinion) I think it will add to the understanding of the song, otherwise enjoy your fantastic journey, I"m not going to give you suggestions cause you'll probably shortly get swamped by them LOL
Thank you so much for watching your support is so appreciated!
This is what the army is talking about. Just follow Gabriels list. Thnx and pls stay save.
Peace from Germany
Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you for reacting to NW. This will be fun watching you go down the NW and Floor rabbit hole. I have been a fan of NW since the late 90's. I fell in love with Tarja and was crushed when the split happened. But, I enjoyed the Annette years and was finally able to see them live several times with her. But now I believe the addition of Floor has elevated the band to it's highest level. I am a huge fan of Floor. I began listening to her with After Forever. Welcome to the family and I hope you follow the the General (Gabriel) in his recommendations. His list is about as good as it gets. It will set you up to be well prepared for the important milestones that lay ahead in the history of the band. Cheers!
Thank you for watching and I am excited to continue the journey. New NW reactions will drop on Friday.
Floor captures souls....... Goddess on earth.
She’s amazing and I can’t wait to dive deeper into the rabbit hole. Thank you for watching!
Do not apologize to the bullies. This is your channel, and you get to do it in your way! I started my Nightwish exloration just over a year ago and have not looked back once. Most of their songs require several listenings for me to catch even a portion of the "story" that they tell. It is exciting to this old American who just found multitudes of new music, bands, genres etc. Welcome and I wish you happy travels down this rabbit hole.
Thank you so much!
Definitely Storytime. Keep up the good work. Not your fault the American music industry slept on Nightwish for so long - and the rest of so much incredibly good material from Europe and Scandinavia. Anything which makes the world bigger and brighter is great! Your channel! You do you! Love your enthusiasm.
Thank you for watching and for the support!
For future reference whenever Marco and Emppu come together on stage prepare for the Floorgasm
Thank you for watching!
It's all good, people should be able to give their opinions without being raked over the coals.😊
Thank you so much for watching and I get how passionate fanbases can be. So let’s keeping Rocking on!!
It was an honest reaction with your first reaction to Nightwish👍, no regrets, it was a spontaneous reaction that you had🙏
Thank you!
This song is from their Imaginaerium album, a concept album base on an old composer on his death bed relieving the memories of his life. One of Tuomas's favorite topics or themes in his music is lost innocence. As a poet and artist Tuomas values the sense of wonder and imagination that innocent children have. In Storytime the composer is remembering the joy he got from childhood tales, thus the references to Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland (Tuomas often uses literary references in his lyrics and as inspiration for songs). It is through these childhood stories that we discover ourselves and who we are (I am the story that will read you real). Song is inspired by a popular British Christmas movie The Snowman. Storytime" was born when Tuomas wondered why no-one had made a remake of the film, and pondered on what his version of the score to the scene in which "Walking in the Air" plays would sound like. Tuomas "How would it feel to take a midnight flight with a snowman through the most wondrous landscapes, like in the classic animated Yuletide film? The meaning of our very existence is created though stories, tales and imagination. They are at the very core of humanity." Walking in the Air is a very popular Christmas song in the UK and Finland and Nightwish did a beautiful cover of it with their first singer Tarja that is worth reacting to. ruclips.net/video/9icKP1b44TA/видео.htmlsi=bVAOljw7uzvbg2wj From the 1998 Wishes to Eternity concert.
Thank you so much for watching and sharing the information!
Thank you, very nice reaction! Just Nightwish doing Nightwish things!
And as you have surely noticed, although they are all outstanding , none of them standout Well, except our Valkyrie Goddess, ofc.
Nightwish is their own genre and no other band comes close to the level they are at.
Never, in the history of music entertainment, have a set of skills and talent collided in such powerful manner.
Tuomas is a true genius as a composer and with lyrics.
Thank you so much for watching!
The Nightwish Army calls him the Time Traveler!!!
So I've heard lol.. Love it!
Greetings from Finland 🤘🤘
Thank you so much for watching!
We might have told you already but it might help you to know Tuomas uses several pseudonyms to refer to himself in various Nightwish songs which he writes from experiences, observation or imagination, he says he is a man with a boy's heart (child-man), a grown-up Peter Pan, and you will see that directly in places even, when he uses boy narrators sometimes in place of himself. Digging into his lyrics is almost a second bite of the cherry.
He will also use poet, dreamer, writer/song writer or ocean soul - Tuomas has an affinity for the ocean, he wanted to become a marine biologist; keep all this in mind for later, it will help. So here, "A writer by a fire. . . . . ." Tuomas is speaking to you directly, he is the story-teller, the “writer by the fire” - "Took a journey into a child-man’s heart" would be Tuomas remembering the childhood stories, the Peter Pan escapades of his imagination and fascinations, but the boy has grown up from being a Peter-Pan, the crib is empty.
I am:
the voice of Never-Never land, the empty crib, the journey, the destination, the home, Tuomas says, he's taking you back to his childhood fascinations.
Floor sings the bridge "Neverland, innocence, dreams of every man. . . . . ." in a high operatic head voice, a pitch you might expect from a very, very excited small boy.
Now, go look at all the lyrics and the references to the childhood classic stories and it all drops into place; it's one of the songs where it is easy to dig inside Tuomas' metaphoric lyrics and unravel them.
Apology not accepted, it was never needed in the first place.
Good stuff, you keep at it, Nightwish will not disappoint.
(Edit: "the core of all life is a limitless chest of tales" - this links to another song, we'll tell you when you get there ! 🙂 )
The best regards from me here, the seriously superannuated British overseas detachment of The Nightwish Army, SW France.
Thank you so much for sharing this information it is so appreciated. Also you for watching and the support!
@@ProxxReacts You are very welcome.
You are doing just fine, truly, so new sub here, you’v earned it fair and square! To be honest, i’v seen and heard Nightwish and Floor countless of times over the years, and began loving the comments of the reactors, like you also, “maybe” even more. So, don't worry, I like what I see and hear!….And it’s oke that “ little doggie’ wants to sing along with Floor.
Thanks for subbing
thank you for continuing on this journey. cant wait to see the next one! NWA California here. As far as comparing, many Americans have said the same thing , since American radio doesn't play Nightwish so no frame of reference here other than what we know and people look for familiarity ... so no worries. Enjoy the new found journey :) . Nightwish Lead me to Sabaton, Epica, Ayreon, and Tommy Johansson ( Id love to see He And Floor do a Duet ) as well as a few others.
Thanks for watching!
I still remember first time I saw by large TV screen in Thailand with entire of concert in 2013 but probably after life in Wacken (the owner said he use steal channel technique ) I can't not remember what my friends said in the meeting coz this concert so impressive in every moment !!
Thank you so much for watching!
Yes. great reaction count stands at two for two. Your enthusiasm is infectious.

Thank you so much for watching and the sub your support is appreciated!
Yep, she can sing the phone book, and it’s already on RUclips!
Yes I saw the video and of course it was beautiful. Thank you for watching!
Lol, I just knew that people would comment when you said "her" name. :) Don't let it get you down. To be completely honest, I don't really know why more people don;t just accept the fact that when it's a reactors first time hearing Floor, and they've just heard the first few lines of vocals for Ghost Love Score for 20 seconds, it's EASY to make that comparison. People just need to get a little chill about it. To be fair to the other camp however, I've watched well over 3,000 Nightwish reactions, trust me, the number of times this gets said, I can appreciate how it could grate a fan :) Kind Regards from the UK.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support. I understand passionate fanbases so I can get it. I just didn’t like upsetting many great people from this wonderful fanbase!
Don't apologise, everyone has a reference point and that's fine. Great to see you continuing with this amazing band - it's a seriously deep rabbit hole and I think you're gonna love it. Sub'd for the Nightwish journey 🤘
Thanks for that! I can’t want to share my journey with this wonderful community!
Don't worry, peaple must understand that, if you do not have much to compare, a few tones can make you think of something you might have heard before. Many north americans compare Floor to Amy Lee in the first one or two minutes. (And Amy is a great singer\musician) Also you don't have to tiptoe on our behalve. This is your show so you be you. Greeting from the Netherlands. I liked both reactions and subscribed. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for watching and the support. I can’t to continue this journey with you all!
Nothing wrong with mentioning other singers. Or even compare. We all think differently. Some people tend to get upset if other people don´t think like they do.
Which is understandable. Being an empath I can feel things for others and I just didn’t want to people to take what I said the wrong way so I thought it was important to address it! Thank you so much for watching!

They should not make you feel you need to apologize, they should realize that almost every reactor at some point has made the connection. And same as you it is a "reminder / makes me think of" and not a competition. We all connect our memories to sound, smell and taste and in this case the sound is familiar. People should just take a moment and think of what they are saying and stop making other people sad because they think their opinion is so important.... You do you. Enjoy being able to hear all those songs for the first time!

I'm an American who lives in South Florida, I grew up with Evanescence and I saw Amy Lee live and she's amazing, but Floor is definitely in a WHOLE other level! She is Classically trained and took Opera for a year. NO need to apologize!!! As Americans the music industry here sucks and if it wasn't for RUclips I would've NEVER heard of Nightwish or of Floor Jansen (YAWN-sen), which includes her previous bands After Forever and ReVamp and other Rock projedts like Northward and her Solo career which is NOT rock or metal but more mainstream. Her range is INSANE!!! She can go from Opera to death metal growls!!!
Thank you so much for watching!
Again a great reaction, thank you. You really don't need to apologize. The Nightwish Army should be used to this comparison from American reactors. I am sorry for American listeners that the US music industry limits their possibilities to listen to bands that do not come from the US so much. I have the feeling that new innovative music now mainly comes from other countries than the USA, that is really a pity. In Europe there are so many great metal bands but also in Japan, Mexico, Brazil etc. So much new to discover, e.g. thanks to RUclips. Nightwish is not new, they have been founded in 1996, but they have evolved a lot during the years. I especially love the last three albums but there are also a lot of great songs on former albums; at Wacken concert 2013 you can hear a lot of them. The songs at this concert all have been written for the two former singers but Floor made them her own. By the way, congratulations! You have discovered the time traveller. He is such a foreign body in the crowd you cannot overlook him.

@@Mytwocentsisallicanafford then he must have been very busy, since there were 82.000 people. My guess...since Wacken is a festival, he was there to see some other bands and was staring in disbelief ;)

Please sir, don’t apologize. It is just funny that American people always compare Floor with Amy Lee( I love her voice too) When you are further on your journey (I hope) you will understand why we are so passionate about Floor (Dutch) because she can’t do anything (please listen for your self the aria she sings by Puccini on a Dutch tv show, it is beautiful)
But Floor is also a real metalhead, and she can scream or growl like a big dude if the lyrics ask for it)

Sir.,
there is absolutely nothing wrong or in any way improper in you mentioning that Floor reminded you of Amy Lee. Some people just need to get a life. Amy Lee is a very talented singer. She has been very successful. In time, usually a very short time most people come to realize that Floor is a cut above. A substantial cut above. She is in my opinion the most thrilling vocalist, I have heard in my many years. She has an incredible way of searing my soul, and grabbing my heart, to rip to shreds. Welcome aboard the Nightwish train. Enjoy your trip, and ignore the idiots. After all, this is the internet.
Thank you for the support and the kind words. Much love. Rock on!
Great reaction👍
Thank you!! 😊
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song that encourages listeners to embark on their own journey of discovery, setting sail on the limitless "chest of tales" to explore the limitless possibilities of imagination.
P.S. As far as I'm concerned, I have no issue with people having their idiosyncratic tastes in music & I also think that Amy Lee is a good vocalist.
Thanks for the watching and the support.
Good one. Great reaction.
Thank you! Cheers!
Floor just draws you in, enthralls and seduces you. The whole band is incredible .... they make me grin like a maniac one minute, then bring tears to my eyes the next. Tuomas is a genius of epic proportions, and in Floor (along with the rest of the band) he has the perfect tool to manifest his vision and present something truly extraordinary. Together, they have a way of touching your soul. All the very best from the Canberra Regiment, Australian Division, Nightwish Army. 🤘

Seriously, check-out Beste Zangers, Floor’s performances in that show in 2019(?) are amazing and show a little more of her versatility.
Will do. Thank you so much for the suggestion.
@@ProxxReacts Search for the Beste Zanger clips that have the intro/outro bits with English subtitles (unless you speak Dutch) to get full context and the reactions of the other singers.
Amy Lee is the first name that comes to lots of listeners, if only because she's the big female voice most American metal fans are familiar with. People really need to just chill out over the comparison. (I think of Anne Wilson, not Amy, but that's because I'm an old fossil.)
I would say that Simone Simons, of Epica, is another in the same category - but like Floor, not so well known in the US because she's also based in Europe, and Epica has a mostly European fan base. Floor and Simone are actually good friends, and you'd probably enjoy watching the two of them doing a duet in "Sancta Terra" (yet another knockout live performance.)
Fun fact: there actually is video on YT of Floor singing from a phone book.
Thank you so much for watching!
I see you spotted the Time Traveller at 11:20!
Yes. Hard to miss him.
@@ProxxReactspoet and the pendulum next 👍
No need to apologize, we were just warning you of what is to come with the band and Floor!!!!!!
Thank you for watching!
