Not her first show. She joined ten months earlier in the USA mid tour replacing previous singer. She travelled from the Netherlands learning the setlist in 48 hours. This was one of her first performances back in mainland Europe and such a huge crowd, 82,000.
I concur. Athena, you might like to watch the documentary "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours". It's an informative backstory to how FLoor joined the band
Your smile is never idiotic. It is beautiful to see a passionate music lover enjoying the show. I absolutely agree with your commentary. You should be proud to be Dutch. Floor is awesome & Dutch. 🌹🌹
Hi Athena yeah Romanticide one of my favourite nightwish songs Floor and Marko kill it and yes your on the right route at wacken open air 2013 Another great reaction from all i can say is IT GETS BETTER!!!!❤
As a 48 year old man from Scotland who grew up in New Zealand and currently lives in the North of England I have always been a fan of Dutchies. My Irish born grandfather served as a Para in the British Army in WWII and jumped into Arnhem. NZ has always been a popular destination for Dutch emigration and throughout my education there were always at least a couple of Dutch born kids in my classes. In fact, the first time I fell in love it was with a Dutch born girl. I regularly kick myself for not discovering Nightwish until 2019. Floor is of course the Valkyrie Goddess, but there are so many Dutch singers almost as amazing as her.
Another great reaction by you Athena. There's nothing idiotic about that smile. It's heartwarming and honest. You are just going throught what many and myself has gone through. It's the Nightwish and Floor, the Goddess effect. Keep them coming! Cheers!❤😘🤙🤘
Besides the Wacken 2013 concert was a amazing Nightwish concert, this concert is special, as it was the day Floor should capture the NW fans for real, and honestly when the show started with Dark chest of wonders, Floor got the crowd in her hands, after singing for 10 secs, and rest of concert, she walked off this stage, as the Valkyrie queen.. Also Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, but you should really not just put them in that box alone, they got a lot of genres they touch, but yes they have to be given a genre stamp, to make people able to know what kind of music it is, and Symphonic metal, is the one then.. Also if you like this type of metal, with charesmatic, and amazing female frontsinger, you should also check out Symphonic metal band Epica, with beatiful Simone Simons in front.. I would maybe suggest to react to the song Once upon a nightmare, from Omega alive concert,for a introduction to Simone.. Btw Floor and Simone is good friends to..
Hi Athena... Beautiful name btw. ❤️ Smiles, tears and goosebumps (Floorgasms) are a normal thing when it comes to Nightwish ever since Floor joined the band. I have to say, however, that Wacken (August 2013) was not Floor's first concert with Nightwish. She agreed to join the band in late September 2012 for her first performance with them on October 1st 2012 in Seattle, Washington, USA. They then went on to tour South America and Europe. By the time they played the Wacken Festival, it was already 10 months later. Im glad you chose to take this journey, and us along with you. I found Nightwish in 2020 and am still amazed at the keyboard player's ability to write such wonderful compositions and even after 4 years, still find myself saying to myself, "I can't believe such compositions come from one man." Tuomas is the writer of the band and he composes both music and lyrics. Emppu is the man that played that awesome guitar solo, Marko is the bass player and sings with Floor, and Jukka was the drummer. I said "was" because both Jukka and Marko are no longer playing with Nightwish. You will learn about their replacements later on. One member who you will meet eventually, you haven't seen yet. His name is Troy Donockley, he is a multi instrumentalist from the UK and was made permanent in June 2013 same as Floor. Wacken 2013 was the biggest show both Floor and Nightwish had ever played. Floor was in a band in 2016 called After Forever. In 2009, she left and formed her band Revamp. She suffered a burnout in 2011 and left music altogether. She was still recovering when she got the call from Nightwish in 2012 but said yes anyway. After joining Nightwish, she disbanded ReVamp in 2016 due to her obligations to Nightwish. She recorded her first album with them in 2014 "Endless Forms Most Beautiful". At that time, drummer Jukka was forced to retire from the band due to health issues tied to insomnia. The album was released in 2015. Her second album with them was "Human :II: Nature" and was released in April 2020. Bassist and singer, Marko Hietala resigned from Nightwish on January 12, 2021 because he suffered from chronic depression and his discontent with the music industry. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤️🤘🤘
Hello thank you very much!! 😁 I had no idea about this, also thanks for correcting me because I don't know why I really thought this was her first show 😵💫 anyway this was really an exceptional concert!! Wish I was there! Thanks also about the explanation about the other band members I appreciate it! 😁🤟🏻
The word Romanticide includes the words romance and suicide and means the end of a toxic love. This song is one of the heavier songs of Nightwish, I just love it. It has been written for one of the former singers and in the original version the last high cry was sung only by Marko but Floor was able to join him. I have seen that you also reacted to a song of Lovebites; if you like it heavy perhaps you will like "Yours is an empty hope" (Wembley or Mexico City 2015) by Nightwish.
Hi Athena ! One of the better Nightwish songs from that famous 2013 Wacken performance ! I loved your reaction to it, as much as I love this song ! My favourtie songs from Nightwish are the two longest, which are also performed at this concert : The poet and the pendulum (about 13 minutes) and The greatest show on earth (about 20 minutes) ! Both worth doing a reaction video to. Best wishes from Germany to southern France (are you living in the Pyrenées ?) : Gerry
Hello thank you very much 😁 🙏 I loved those songs too!! Filmed also I will definitely post as well! Greetings to you in Germany 🇩🇪 from the Pyrenees indeed!
To look like an idiot during a Nightwish concert or not to get the surprised grin off your face all the time is perfectly normal. That's what I still look like today when I listen to new songs or watch a new concert by Nightwish.
Hi Athena.... yes, you were smiling all the way through that. It says a lot. jefferyphipps has beaten me to it, but yes, 'Sancta Terra' by Epica, featuring Floor is usually the first step to the Epica rabbithole. Simone is another Dutch angel.... you won't regret it... promise.
Oh, er lasst es Song so much! Thank you for your very Could Reaction, Athena! Denn by the way, about your lost: in April, Our Bolonka Dock, Enya, 15 Years Old, past the Rainbow Bridge. Rest in Peace. Little Enya Whistle, miss you!❤😢
Great reaction! Most go by the list, but might I suggest “last ride of the day”, also from same wacken show. Don’t see enough reactions for this song. It is their closer, and it is a BANGER!! ❤️🤘
Thanks for sharing your reaction to a song about the dangers of falling in love with the wrong person. P.S. This wasn't Floor's first live show with Nightwish. She had already done several in 2012 when she replaced Anette during their North American tour.
Great reaction, thank you! So much more Nightwish and Floor for you to explore!! I did notice one thing tho on your reaction, that there is a little digital latency or something happening where the audio is just slightly off from the video...... I'm not techy enough to exactly diagnose the problem but it is fairly common with reaction videos it seems.
Hello! Thank you 😁 Oh really? I didn't notice that while editing but maybe you're right, I'm re-watching a bit now to check again and it seems like there is lag sometimes I don't know why this happens 😔 didn't notice this when I edited! 🙏
Subscribed. Great performance and reaction! NIGHTWISH is awesome. If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique and have a worldwide fan base (The One). Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance: BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL) Or: MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】 🖖 ❤
Since you mentioned the "amazing singer from the netherlands", do you also know Epica and Within Temptation ? Both fantastic dutch symphonic metal bands with great singers. Simone Simons from Epica is even a good friend of Floor. Just something to start, its hard because there are sooo much great songs from them : EPICA - Once Upon a Nightmare (ΩMEGA ALIVE) ~ 2021 [Full HD] ruclips.net/video/oseRJV0iEJs/видео.html Within Temptation Ft. Tarja - Paradise Live at Hellfest Festival (2016) ruclips.net/video/8vsKQTfxf80/видео.html
Hello yes indeed I know about them! ( more about Whithin Temptation than Epica, I didn't really follow what they did recently but I definitely will!!) Thank you very much 😁
At this point Floor had been with the band for 10 months. She has been singing in other bands since she was 16. 😄🤘
Hello that's true!! 😵💫
She was hired by Nightwish in 2012. This was her first performance with Nightwish at Wacken.
Goddes Floor
A true Queen 👑 I love her
"Nightwish is something special". That was spot on.
Not her first show. She joined ten months earlier in the USA mid tour replacing previous singer. She travelled from the Netherlands learning the setlist in 48 hours. This was one of her first performances back in mainland Europe and such a huge crowd, 82,000.
I concur. Athena, you might like to watch the documentary "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours". It's an informative backstory to how FLoor joined the band
Thanks indeed I don't know I got that wrong! Now I know 😁 🤟🏻
Nightwish deserves real reactions and you delivered! Excellent! Plenty more to see! Enjoying your journey!
Hello thank you very much 😁 🤟🏻 we are never bored with Nightwish!!
Your smile is never idiotic. It is beautiful to see a passionate music lover enjoying the show. I absolutely agree with your commentary. You should be proud to be Dutch. Floor is awesome & Dutch. 🌹🌹
Hello thank you very much 😁 indeed! Music make us feels emotions we should never be ashamed of!
Greetings 🌹
We know exactly what you mean, even if you can't find the words 😊Thank you Athena 🤗
Hello thank you 😁😊

Floor and Marko its gonna be not any better than this....💜💜💜💜 thanks Athena

Hello thank you very much 😁 you're right! 🙏 Smiling or even crying to a song isn't idiotic!
Greetings to you 😁
With this song I am awakened in the morning.
And I have energy for the whole day.
There are incredible vocalists in the Netherlands, like Henk Poort, the beautiful Simone Simons, or Queen Floor Jansen.
That's true! Some true gems!
Besides the Wacken 2013 concert was a amazing Nightwish concert, this concert is special, as it was the day Floor should capture the NW fans for real, and honestly when the show started with Dark chest of wonders, Floor got the crowd in her hands, after singing for 10 secs, and rest of concert, she walked off this stage, as the Valkyrie queen..
Also Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, but you should really not just put them in that box alone, they got a lot of genres they touch, but yes they have to be given a genre stamp, to make people able to know what kind of music it is, and Symphonic metal, is the one then..
Also if you like this type of metal, with charesmatic, and amazing female frontsinger, you should also check out Symphonic metal band Epica, with beatiful Simone Simons in front..
I would maybe suggest to react to the song Once upon a nightmare, from Omega alive concert,for a introduction to Simone..
Btw Floor and Simone is good friends to..
Hello thank you very much I totally agree it's impossible to only put them in a genre box! They have a lot of different sounds!
I love Epica! 😁🙏
Floorgasm! A milestone in the history of music
Floor may have only been in the band for a short time at this point, but she had been a professional singer for about 15 years by then.
That's true 😵💫
In my opinion Floor is at her best with Nightwish and NW with her. And understand that you are proud about Floor, as I am to be a 🇫🇮 😊
Great reaction, your face said everything that needed to be said - its really great watching you rediscover this most incredible band 🤘
Hello thank you very much 😁 🤟🏻🙏

Hello I agree 😁 🤟🏻 music makes us feel things and we shouldn't be ashamed of it!! Haha
Hmm... Dutch. Then you might like Epica's Simone Simons ft. Floor Janson singing "Sancta Terra" - with an actual orchestra and choir.
Hello thanks 😁🤟🏻 I'll definitely listen to that song!
Hi Athena.... yes, you were smiling all the way through that. It says a lot. jefferyphipps has beaten me to it, but yes, 'Sancta Terra' by Epica, featuring Floor is usually the first step to the Epica rabbithole. Simone is another Dutch angel.... you won't regret it... promise.
Hello thanks a lot I will check that out then 😁 🤟🏻
Oh, er lasst es Song so much! Thank you for your very Could Reaction, Athena! Denn by the way, about your lost: in April, Our Bolonka Dock, Enya, 15 Years Old, past the Rainbow Bridge. Rest in Peace. Little Enya Whistle, miss you!❤😢

Yes Athena momma floor is known as the dutch windmill . Wintersun Alex USA ❄️🫶
Subscribed. Great performance and reaction! NIGHTWISH is awesome. If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique and have a worldwide fan base (The One). Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance:
BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL)
Or:
MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】 🖖 ❤
Hello thank you very much 😁 🙏 I'll definitely react to BABYMETAL! Thanks!
Do French headbang or windmill? 😜
They do too hahah 😁 🤟🏻 but the windmill is only for Dutch 🤭
@ could you demonstrate the techniques in your next video? 😆
I thought you were French. Probably both Dutch and French then.
Hello I'm Dutch but I live in France since almost my whole life! That's why I speak French better than Dutch 😁
Entendre Floor chanter, ça change d'Alex Terrible. 🤣
Ça c'est sûr hahahah c'est très différent 😂
Since you mentioned the "amazing singer from the netherlands", do you also know Epica and Within Temptation ? Both fantastic dutch symphonic metal bands with great singers. Simone Simons from Epica is even a good friend of Floor.

Hello yes indeed I know about them! ( more about Whithin Temptation than Epica, I didn't really follow what they did recently but I definitely will!!)
Thank you very much 😁
Ik ben ook Nederlander.
😁🤟🏻🇳🇱
You would maybe like some epica. Tides of time,studio version. There's no good live version only bad audio.
Hello I will definitely do 😁 thanks for the recommendation
