Wow. Having found Nightwish in 2019, and seeing one of the earliest performances of GLS: I'm damned near speechless. Floor isn't just an amazing vocalist, but I don't know anyone that could have done what she did in 48 hours prior to her first performance in the US. She not only nailed it, but seeing this? A true "level up" in every sense: Not just for Floor, but for the band as a whole. And you see that level up complete at the Wacken 2013 concert. I sincerely hope that Floor takes the lesson of fine wine and gets better with age -- she is a once-in-a-generation vocalist, metal or otherwise. Oh, yeah...AND she totally schools the pop divas. Adele and Ariana Grande have nothing on the versatility, skill, talent, raw power, and stage presence of Floor Jansen.
It was also the best day of life. I will never forget that show as long as I live. For those that were not there for this performance, words nor video can fully express what it was like. The band, Floor, and the crowd were on fire.
I was at this show, right behind the guy filming this. Floor absolutely blew our minds and this is coming from a Tarja and Anette fan! I was one of the one's pointing at the "Floor Stay" sign \m/
I was there. Such an amazing show, I feel so lucky to have gotten to see Floor so early on in her time with Nightwish, she was already the new singer in my heart as far as I was concerned from this moment on.
Everyone only talks about the singers. These musicians here, including Marco's vocals, are just incredible. It is a travesty what they have had to endure on stage since Tarja left, that was a poor decision I think. It's good to see them on stage with someone who can really sing again. It's a tough gig. I know, I've done a lot of different styles as a female frontwoman. It's SO much harder than it looks folks.
This is my dream~ to have Floor touring in America so I can fly anywhere to go see her!! I love Nightwish too and I think the two couldn't be more of a perfect match! The music is no less than EPIC. Beautiful! Amazing! What an awesome video, also!
this is my all time fav song and i couldnt even thought to hear it from other voice than tarjas...BUT this shit fcing rocks...floor is freaking awsome...and hot...all i can say is,, NW JUST GET THIS AWSOME VOCALIST FOR NEW SINGER NOOOOWWWWW....
I have exactly the same feeling, even though it's been only 4 years of desinterest for me. Ghost love score was always my favorite song and Floor singing it gives me the goosebumps and tears I had when I first heard it. I'm really crossing my fingers and hope that Floor stays in NW, so I get the chance to see this live as well.
If Floor doesn't make a deal to stay in Nightwish, at least I hope she makes a deal with Marvel for the role of Wonder Woman. Man, what an amazon warrior physique!
what she does at the end of the song, is what GLS needed to not sound as a repetitive choir over and over again until it ends. It was necesary to fill with something that repetitive part. Epic!
Wow- I'm so jealous y'all in FL got to hear this masterpiece performed again. To all you Tarja-philes out there: she's gone and never coming back. The band has moved on and in a better direction. Get over it.
If you get the chance, check out Floor's interview with ThelslandersUK. Even though she was an emergency replacement and probably has a million things on her plate, she graciously made time to meet with fan clubs and showed what a totally beautiful person she is.
be glad you got to listen to 3 talented vocalists......obviously these negative posters have all written amazing songs we don't know about, and can all sing better than anyone.
AHA, so YOU'RE the one who kept bopping my head while I was filming this. LOL. Seriously though, your poster was GREAT. I hope Toumas saw it. He'd be a fool to NOT keep Floor. She is now a tremendous asset for Nightwish. The audiences absolutely love her (as we CERTAINLY did in Orlando). And I don't believe Toumas is a fool. I'm eagerly anticipating a next album of songs designed around her style and range. I believe it will be majestic. So yes...FLOOR STAYS !
Seeing Floor pull this off, I'm very proud to be Dutch ^_^ This is what Nightwish needs, a singer who can do both classical and pop voice. (Like Simone Simons as well, oh wait, she's Dutch too ^_^ )
I was... well, Floored, when I stumbled across After Forever in Zune's recommendations. I wondered how she'd do paired up with Nightwish. Never did I imagine she'd waltz in and handle the vocal extremes of Nightwish history like it was child's play. I never expected anyone other than Tarja or Opera-specializing vocalist to be able to perform Ghost Love Score 'properly.' Damn am I glad to be surprised! Floored once again. Puns intended.
trully you guys are lucky to be there..i was not at this concert yet.i myself cant fully express what im feeling just by watching this video NIGHTWISH RULES WITH FLOOR!!! \m/
KEEP HER! KEEP HER! KEEP HER!!! Nightwish used to be one of my all time favorite bands till Tarja left... I kind of lost interest in Nightwish even though I still went to their concerts with Annette and bought the albums... but it just didn't feel like the Nightwish I first fell in love with. I liked Annette and she seemed like a nice person... but this has got me so psyched out about Nightwish again. Please stay Floor!!!!
That's not just up to Tuomas. Floor has a great career of her own right and there's also ReVamp her own band. I also hope she stays, she and Nuightwish are a match made in heaven. I love Tarja too but she's gone and won't be coming back.
she is like an awesome mix of both Tarja and Annette, Their love child for sure! :D she has the power and opera of Tarja (just better live) and she can also do the speedier more pop vocals that Annette could do! :D Wonderful! :D :D
Not to downgrade other NW masterpieces, but GLS somehow was very special to me and now with Floor's voice (especially at the end when she adds her personal flavour to the song) I can almost forget Tarja. I really hope NW will keep her, she's ashtonishing in every way (voice, stage presence, everything)
i agree, but i think almost all Nightwish fans will agree! Annette did the best she could, and i don't think it is fair that so many people were talking shit about her.. But i think it's better for the band that's she left and if Floor took here place. After forever has always been one of my favorite bands en Nightwish to. So i could not think for anything better!
With all do respect you do realize that the last couple albums they recorded was with a full orchestra and choir so while it would be nice idea to have a full 50+ person symphony and choir behind them its not realistic.Technology when used tastefully ( not autotune or other studio tricks) can help to bring the albums to life live. Just my simple opinion as a musician and lover of Night wish music,
You should care coz if you go in a live that is one of the most important things..If you go for example at front row and she doesnt give a damn nor does things to get the crowd going,no matter the voice it will be horrible.And no she wasnt horrible..It is what NW chose in a try to change style and drop off the operatic style Tarja used to give..And Anette was totally fine for that purspose
Come on she wasnt horrible and her touch with the crowd was amazing..I wasnt the best fan of her but she was really decent so leave horrible and stuff like that out
NAOO QUERO QUE TARJA VOLTE PARA O NIGHTWISH POIS ACHO A CARREIRA SOLO DELA MARAVILHOSA AMOO D++ TARJA PARA MIM ELA E A RAINHA DO RACK, ACHO QUE FLOOR É UMA OTIMA CANTORA FAZ, MAS ACHO QUE NÃO CONBINA COM A BANDA ACHO QUE ELA TAMBÉM TEM GRANDE CAPACIDADE DE SEGUIR CARREIRA SOLO!!!
so? what should they do? do you know any better options? or should they bring live orchestra on every show that's ridiculous. without backing tracks they wont be able to perform live.
Most symphonic metal bands have a symphonic sound as that's what defines it mostly....Floor's in one of those bands, and she actually can sing high. Anette isn't as high as Floor or Tarja.
This sounds like the Nightwish what I used to listen when I was yong, when Tarja was still the wocalist. When Anette was the wocalist it was so horrible that I stopped listening Nightwish and ths sounds really promising.
Wow. Having found Nightwish in 2019, and seeing one of the earliest performances of GLS: I'm damned near speechless. Floor isn't just an amazing vocalist, but I don't know anyone that could have done what she did in 48 hours prior to her first performance in the US. She not only nailed it, but seeing this?

2:50 spoke for millions of people! (Almost) everyone loves Floor today! Goddess!
The real Nightwish is back
It was also the best day of life. I will never forget that show as long as I live. For those that were not there for this performance, words nor video can fully express what it was like. The band, Floor, and the crowd were on fire.
I still remember the glances Marco and Tuomas would make, hearing Floor and looking at each other with big grins: Holy Shit we GOT SO LUCKY!!
FLOOR PLS STAY, WE LOVE YOU!
Floor STAY yes !! ♥
Floor is amazing. Best version ever!!
When Floor joined I felt that Nightwish was reborned. Love it
Thanks. My dad took the video on an iPhone 4. Couldn't believe how well it came out.
I was at this show, right behind the guy filming this. Floor absolutely blew our minds and this is coming from a Tarja and Anette fan! I was one of the one's pointing at the "Floor Stay" sign \m/
Tarja who? FLOOR!!!
I was there. Such an amazing show, I feel so lucky to have gotten to see Floor so early on in her time with Nightwish, she was already the new singer in my heart as far as I was concerned from this moment on.
I really hope she stays. I loved Tarja. I loved Anette, But Floor just blew them both away!
Everyone only talks about the singers. These musicians here, including Marco's vocals, are just incredible. It is a travesty what they have had to endure on stage since Tarja left, that was a poor decision I think. It's good to see them on stage with someone who can really sing again. It's a tough gig.

I ♥ Nightwish OMG
and Floor with them now...it's perfect !!!
This end version...totally rocks
This is my dream~ to have Floor touring in America so I can fly anywhere to go see her!! I love Nightwish too and I think the two couldn't be more of a perfect match! The music is no less than EPIC. Beautiful! Amazing! What an awesome video, also!
And now your dream has come true, friend...
this is my all time fav song and i couldnt even thought to hear it from other voice than tarjas...BUT this shit fcing rocks...floor is freaking awsome...and hot...all i can say is,, NW JUST GET THIS AWSOME VOCALIST FOR NEW SINGER NOOOOWWWWW....
Thanks cander,i'm the the nightwish fan holding the poster'FLOOR STAY',great performance,best day of my life.
i hope you still have that sign...after 8 years
Ouch!!! I'm ASTONISHED!!!
Can't believe such an amazing performance! Floor, we love you, stay along please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have exactly the same feeling, even though it's been only 4 years of desinterest for me. Ghost love score was always my favorite song and Floor singing it gives me the goosebumps and tears I had when I first heard it. I'm really crossing my fingers and hope that Floor stays in NW, so I get the chance to see this live as well.
Floor the Wonder Woman of the nederlands
I am so excited about this band again.
Kiitos NIGTWISH ! parasta mitä ootte tehnyt oli ottaa oikea laulaja vihdoinkin
If Floor doesn't make a deal to stay in Nightwish, at least I hope she makes a deal with Marvel for the role of Wonder Woman. Man, what an amazon warrior physique!
Hahahaa... Or both... since I am thinking she is better choice than Gal Gadot for Wonder Woman...
what she does at the end of the song, is what GLS needed to not sound as a repetitive choir over and over again until it ends. It was necesary to fill with something that repetitive part. Epic!
FLOOR PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STAY. Nightwish are "back to life" finally!! Please stay!
She can dance, too!
PERFECTION!!!!!
wow floor
One could say she's.... Mopped the FLOOR with this piece!
AAAAAAAAAWWWWHHHHH YYEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
Wow- I'm so jealous y'all in FL got to hear this masterpiece performed again. To all you Tarja-philes out there: she's gone and never coming back. The band has moved on and in a better direction. Get over it.
and they are in the right direction now...
omg! goosebumps by just watching this video...awesome performance Floor,PLEASE STAY!!!!!
Great Great Great finally a perfect vocalist for Nightwish... I think I'll be a fan again :D
If you get the chance, check out Floor's interview with ThelslandersUK. Even though she was an emergency replacement and probably has a million things on her plate, she graciously made time to meet with fan clubs and showed what a totally beautiful person she is.

Floor, please stay with Nightwish!
I guess you must be happy today... 😀
NW+Floor= Epic band.
good quality! thanks,Floor is amazing!
Wonderful! She's incredible! And congrats to the uploader on getting a decent sound quality video!
I was... well, Floored, when I stumbled across After Forever in Zune's recommendations. I wondered how she'd do paired up with Nightwish.
Never did I imagine she'd waltz in and handle the vocal extremes of Nightwish history like it was child's play. I never expected anyone other than Tarja or Opera-specializing vocalist to be able to perform Ghost Love Score 'properly.' Damn am I glad to be surprised! Floored once again. Puns intended.
Thanks Cander. I was in the audience as well that night. Vids like this help keep the memories alive :)
'My Floor will be for you' ;) Please stay with NW Floor!!!!!
History in the making....
Oh my fucking god that last note is increadible! I really hope for NW's sake that they keep her as lead-singer!
I do not recall any specific reaction to his sign, but she was definitely moved by the crowds reaction to her.
Can't wait to see them in May!!!!!!
Nightwish you should keep her, there is no one like Floor
La amo!
trully you guys are lucky to be there..i was not at this concert yet.i myself cant fully express what im feeling just by watching this video NIGHTWISH RULES WITH FLOOR!!! \m/
I've been waiting to hear Ghost Love Score like this again after Tarja left. It still is my favorite song from NW. Thank you for posting this
STAY FLOOR +10000000000000
I guess you must be happy today... 😀
i wonder how the four guys' faces look like when she hit that high note and ended this song oh so epically...
KEEP HER! KEEP HER! KEEP HER!!! Nightwish used to be one of my all time favorite bands till Tarja left... I kind of lost interest in Nightwish even though I still went to their concerts with Annette and bought the albums... but it just didn't feel like the Nightwish I first fell in love with. I liked Annette and she seemed like a nice person... but this has got me so psyched out about Nightwish again. Please stay Floor!!!!
9:09 ..."For you,... baby.. "FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORR" CRAZY CRAZY AMAZING!!!!!! NIGHTWISH IS BACK!!!!!!!
Exactly!
Őrütbe kergettek "jó értelemben" a zenétekkel...... észbontóan jó!!!!
Man Floor in Nightwish we can finally see the old style
That's not just up to Tuomas. Floor has a great career of her own right and there's also ReVamp her own band. I also hope she stays, she and Nuightwish are a match made in heaven. I love Tarja too but she's gone and won't be coming back.
she is like an awesome mix of both Tarja and Annette, Their love child for sure! :D she has the power and opera of Tarja (just better live) and she can also do the speedier more pop vocals that Annette could do! :D Wonderful! :D :D
Floor sings this great, after the wasted years with Anette it is nice to hear Nightwish sounding so good again , and Floor is so hot ! :)
oh! much better than Anettes' version. Floor knows her voice, manner and good position to sound the best she can in each song))))
Floor is an amazing vocalist. Nightwish would do well to keep her in the lineup.
es hermosa
Not to downgrade other NW masterpieces, but GLS somehow was very special to me and now with Floor's voice (especially at the end when she adds her personal flavour to the song) I can almost forget Tarja. I really hope NW will keep her, she's ashtonishing in every way (voice, stage presence, everything)
U ARE SIMPLY TO GOOD TO GO ANYWHERE BUT NIGHTWISH..... U MAY GO TO DEEP PURPLE... BUT THTAS ANOTHER STORY.... FLOOR STAY FOR SO MANY OF US
I guess you must be happy today... 😀
2:50 And boy did she. ❤️
yeah :D
God yes
ok,they saw the sing and marco pointed at me and then noticed Floor and she smiled,waoo she came from heaven man!!
dude, remember it's recorded with a PHONE :P
Tarja must be proud of this performance (I guess) She might think that Floor is her best replacement
I remember that from another video. After that Emppu walked past her and patted her gently on the shoulder.:)
i agree, but i think almost all Nightwish fans will agree! Annette did the best she could, and i don't think it is fair that so many people were talking shit about her.. But i think it's better for the band that's she left and if Floor took here place. After forever has always been one of my favorite bands en Nightwish to. So i could not think for anything better!
AGAPAME FLOOR!
2:47 PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
if anyone can do it instead of Tarja, she can. i wish she stays
I guess you must be happy today... 😀
At least she didn't have a condom fly into her face this time XD
what? what are you talking about
Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. Hahah!
o.0...Le GASP! I loved the poster board sign Saying "Floor Stay"
MY FALL WILL BE FOR YOU MY LOVE WILL BE IN YOU sounds more electric with Floor Janson than with Annette best swap ever
you're dad is interested in being a good parent! imagine also jamming with one's folks...hell that 'd be something!!!
With all do respect you do realize that the last couple albums they recorded was with a full orchestra and choir so while it would be nice idea to have a full 50+ person symphony and choir behind them its not realistic.Technology when used tastefully ( not autotune or other studio tricks) can help to bring the albums to life live. Just my simple opinion as a musician and lover of Night wish music,
man, she's huge :D
or Make a live action film out of Ranma 1/2 and cast Floor as Akane
Well done to Pops Cander then lol!!!!
You should care coz if you go in a live that is one of the most important things..If you go for example at front row and she doesnt give a damn nor does things to get the crowd going,no matter the voice it will be horrible.And no she wasnt horrible..It is what NW chose in a try to change style and drop off the operatic style Tarja used to give..And Anette was totally fine for that purspose
até q não tá tão ruim
Sin palabras simplemente queremos a Tarja de vuelta
No, I don't want her back... Nightwish now has a better singer than Tarja...
Greg The Eagle 🦅 😲
Tarja doesn't (or ever really did) care about Nightwish; why would she care about who sings for them?
Floorgasm!
Great move, man! Did she see the poster and if she did what was her reaction? :)
Come on she wasnt horrible and her touch with the crowd was amazing..I wasnt the best fan of her but she was really decent so leave horrible and stuff like that out
NAOO QUERO QUE TARJA VOLTE PARA O NIGHTWISH POIS ACHO A CARREIRA SOLO DELA MARAVILHOSA AMOO D++ TARJA PARA MIM ELA E A RAINHA DO RACK, ACHO QUE FLOOR É UMA OTIMA CANTORA FAZ, MAS ACHO QUE NÃO CONBINA COM A BANDA ACHO QUE ELA TAMBÉM TEM GRANDE CAPACIDADE DE SEGUIR CARREIRA SOLO!!!
Fans
so? what should they do? do you know any better options? or should they bring live orchestra on every show that's ridiculous. without backing tracks they wont be able to perform live.
Most symphonic metal bands have a symphonic sound as that's what defines it mostly....Floor's in one of those bands, and she actually can sing high. Anette isn't as high as Floor or Tarja.
Wonder Woman is from DC -.-...but yeah :P
This sounds like the Nightwish what I used to listen when I was yong, when Tarja was still the wocalist. When Anette was the wocalist it was so horrible that I stopped listening Nightwish and ths sounds really promising.
isn'T wonder woman dc universe?
