Every next one will be your new favorite 😁 Marko is not a difficult name to remember 😉 If you really want to hear her growls listen to ‘yours is an empty hope’
If you like the growling and want to know what Floor is really capable of, take a small side step and watch her old band Revamp with the song "Disdain" at Graspop. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Definitely! For more of a “rock” sound try While Love Died from side project Northward, for a “pop” sound her solo album is pure gold, and there are a couple videos of her doing straight up opera. One of the most versatile vocalists in the world imo.
Haha at 2:49 "a little more aggression on her voice.. I like that!" Oh you lucky you! There's just a tad bit more where that came from. You'll understand when you get to e.g. "Yours Is An Empty Hope" (make sure it's the Wembley 2015 version). You'll get the full gritty, fry screaming, growling picture when you finally get to ReVamp, Floor's former band before/besides NW. So much still to enjoy. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
There is a standing joke in the Nightwish community. The next Nightwish song you hear will be you favourite! Anyway, another articulate and well observed reaction. Also, I like your description of Nightwish as “grownup metal”. Yeah, nicely put. You should definitely react to “Yours Is An Empty Hope” if you want to hear Floor growl. Live at Wembley is probably the best although on all the live ones her growl does get lost in the mix a tad.
Loved your reaction to this performance. Get used to saying "This may be my favorite track so far." Floor did do a bit of growling here but if you want to hear another banger where Floor does all of the harsh growling on every chorus while Marko sings clean above her. Here's the link to "Yours Is An Empty Hope" live at Wembley 2015. ruclips.net/video/vyLsU7Q333k/видео.html Thank you for continuing down our Nightwish rabbit hole. Loving it. Nightwish live is always even better than their studio productions. Plus the reaction is way more entertaining on the live performances.
I would definitely watch a full reaction to the concert. As far as live or official videos, there are a few good official videos, but honestly they are mostly a band to watch live.
I think every Nightwish journey should include the music video for Noise, as well as the lyric video for Shoemaker, both from their latest album, Human Nature. They have other pretty good music videos, but for me (and many others), those two stand out. Aside from that, yeah, live is the way to go for this band. They are just crazy good live, especially Floor, who is great in the studio, but only gets her superpowers when performing live.
Wachen the W is pronounced as a V, and yes she growled, I think you are going to find NW is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get, you just know it's gonna be GOOD!!!!!!
You're really have an effort for some one to pronounce "Wacken" yet you're not even able to spell it right when typing it down... (???) 🙄 🙈 Isn't it an universal "code", better to not say anything if is not not constructive? Especially on this kinda web world like Utuub is, right? For a person from the States it is quite simple to guide how Wacken is pronounced. "Dokken" (a band) = Wacken = Vakken.... Hey... And this boy's first and second language isn't english, not to mention germany... 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥
Another absolute classic.... There vocals Mix is great 🖤 I love the growl vocal that Floor snuck in there. Enjoyed your Nightwish 🤘 reactions 🖤🤎 ThanX from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Tuomas has said that this song is a duel between the Devil and Mother Gaia. I love the back and forth vocals. An Anette era song, from the 2011 Imaginareum album. Yes, she growled. This and Yours Is an Empty Hope (Wembley 2015 is a good version) are about it for her growling with Nightwish. She did more of that with her previous band, ReVamp. If you want to hear that band, try Disdain or The Trial of Monsters from Graspop 2010. Marko Hietala, pronounced something like Hee-a-tall-ah, emphasis on the first syllable , and run the rest together. Chaoszine channel posted and interview with Marko 2 days ago, in it you can hear him pronounce his name. For more back and forth vocals, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean (Buenos Aires 2018).
if you want to hear more of them together, try "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" live in Buenos Aires in, I believe, 2018. sooooo many different vocal techniques and very much a storytelling song.
Hi from the UK 👋 🇬🇧 division of the Nightwish army floor grows a bit singing as a guest with this band Soilwork let this river flow with floor jansen live
Hallo 😊, your reaction was really 😁👍🤘. Yes, the next song will be you favorite song! I stay with this one. One little background story from me: Floor is married to Hannes van Dahl, drummer of SABATON. Thank you for sharing fun. Greetings from Germany 🤗 alex and EMPPU RULES 🤘😎
I think the music and lyric videos they did for their last album, Human Nature, are all fascinating. It's definitely Nightwish but has a different coloring to it. All of the songs are thought provoking - they range from rousing to hauntingly beautiful. The last song, Endlessness, features Marko and unfortunately will never be performed live.
I saw all your Nightwish and Sabaton videos so far. They were really entertaining but it was just one phrase from this specific video that made me subscribe immediately. Man you are maybe the first person, who listened for the first time ghost river and noticed Floor growling in that little part. If you like growling sometimes you should definitely check out Nightwish- yours is an empty hope, (live at Wembley arena) were she grows through all the choruses. She also used that technique more often with her previous bands (Revamp and After forever). Greetings from Nightwish army Greece department 🇬🇷
Yes, that was Floor growling. There is a compilation out there that has her doing this that is mind blowing. It's on RUclips. It's by PencilHB and it is called Floor Jansen Growl compilation 2010-2021.
Marko Tappani Hietala (pron: HEE-ah-Tallah) is a classically trained guitarist, bassist, songwriter and incredible vocalist both solo and in harmony! He plays Warwick basses.
You'll find Marko can do from ROCK to Opera to Growling to folk singing. Live for Nightwish is always better but not all songs make it to live. Master Passion Greed is one of them examples which only Marko sings.
Have to agree, one of the best NW songs (particularly this performance of it). Great music, great vocals, great lyrics etc etc etc. 1000% awesomeness! Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next reaction. Greetings from the NW Army (Sydney, Australia Division) 🇦🇺🤘
The dream like remissness of the dying composer behind the concept of the album this tour was supporting certainly has some very interesting video out of the movie that supported it. In general their videos will add a certain depth to the meaning behind the music. I wouldn't call them better or worse just a different experience.
Nice reaction, pretty same feelings I had once back in time when I first time heard this.. the same gig the same video. Have you done "song of myself" btw already? One of the most epic crowd interaction is in wembley 2015 shudder before the beutiful :)
With Nightwish live is where it’s at, except for the latest album human to nature. That I would recommend you enjoy via the official lyric videos. But maybe get through Wacken, Buenos Aires and Tampere concerts first.
And maybe for a different feel there is a song that was mostly written by Marco and he does the singing on it. It’s called while your lips are still red and it was made for a movie. I can’t recall the name right now course the live version is best in my opinion, but that brings a whole Nother element to Marco’s voice as well but I think I said previously he won Finland‘s masked singer last year and in it he sings everything to. I think folk songs to the beastie boys I mean, do you want to see the chopsaw on that man and his range check those out?
Nightwish is a band best served live, with one not so tiny exception! Do yourself a service and check out their music video for "Noise". It is from their newest album, so you'll get a tiny glimpse of how they've grown. And don't misunderstand me, they sound just as fenomenal live as in the video, but the visuals really punch the message of the song home. ;)
It has been mentioned here in the comments, but Floor's earlier band (s), specifically Revamp, with the songs Misery's no crime, Disdaine and Wildcard is great ones for Floor's growling and harsher vocals😎😍😊
I always get eighties Van Halen vibes with that riff on the beginning and end. Floor growling yes but please react to The Wembley Arena London version of Yours is an Empty hope Floors growls nice!.
Just WAIT till you guys do "Yours is an Empty Hope" Live at WEMBLEY 2015 for Floor doing ALL the growls in the chorus (No, it's not Marko, it's FLOOR!) and then check out her previous band ReVamp "Disdain" Live at Graspop 2010 (to start lol) 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
You should really check out Yours Is An Empty Hope. Floor growls and it's awesome. A lot of reactors think it's Marko growling but it's Floor. Marko does the singing vocals and Floor does the growling.
You really need to do "The Islander" live at Tampere. Its a whole other side of Nightwish, and you will see why Marko is the only man on the planet who can say, "Floor is my backup singer"!
Their vocal interaction on this song, and several others tbh, is insane. You could throw any music genre at Floor to sing, and she'll nail it every single time. This is one of my very fav NW songs...
Hello sir, one of my favorites too....but I have a lot of them :D This is a North European spooky fairytale about a female ghost lures the children to the river in the night, with her beautiful voice "do come across" Marco sounds evil, but he is actually the good guy, warning the children not to cross the river. ;) So Floor had the naughty part in this song ;)
LOL, my new favorite. If I had a dollar every time I've heard that... Your next favorite? "Your's is an empty hope" Wembley Arena. I'll write it again, Wembley Arena 2015.
here comes your new favorite : " 7 Days to the Wolves" live Wembley 2015 then "Shudder before the beautiful" live Wembley 2015 to hear all 3 singers together, try "My Walden" ... live Wembley 2015
A fun thing is that Floor is married to Hannes (drummer of Sabaton) and she is 6month pregnant their second child😊 If you want more heavy growling from Floor check out "Yours is an emty hope" or her former band Rewamp "Distein"
I think Tuomas struggles with music videos as he doesn't like to dictate to people what the songs mean, he prefers that the interpretation belong to the listener! and generally the music videos are for the more "commercial sounding" songs. Three that I like with Floor are: ruclips.net/video/VUb1p8fm7Ag/видео.html&pp=ygUcZW5kbGVzcyBmb3JtcyBtb3N0IGJlYXV0aWZ1bA%3D%3D - Endless Forms Most Beautiful ruclips.net/video/LczGSoibRe8/видео.html&pp=ygUPbmlnaHR3aXNoIG5vaXNl - Noise ruclips.net/video/zPonioDYnoY/видео.html&pp=ygUObmlnaHR3aXNoIGVsYW4%3D - Elan
19 Hrs, so, all i would Comment is already said:) Strange Crowd you did set on the trail of your Channel, dont ya:) Bcs mostly there is no Teenie at our trails, but we geeking the Net...i sometimes laugh so hard about myself, when it Comes to NW Recaps. And that was an real great one, Thx Sir. Only one Thing: i know instantly about 5 Songs, that go harder and you will have an hard Time to stay Fav with this one;) and then more from Tarja:D.So much for Grandaddys geeking:) STay Healthy NWA Bavaria North, Germany
Twists and turns. Unexpected changes and textures. That is Nightwish my friend. They don't do just metal. They do powerful great melodic music. We all love the live energy and charisma of the band. It also is the only way to experience Floor singing these older songs. If you want to hear a single from Nightwish with both Marko and Floor singing, check out "Wish I had an Angel". Live from Vah-ken of course. See link. ruclips.net/video/CbbGdTBkKnY/видео.html - 🎼 NIGHTWISH 🎶 Wish I Had An Angel 🎶 Live At Wacken 2013 ☢ CORRECT SPEED ☢
If you REALLY want to hear Floor growl, "Misery's No Crime", in one of the last performances with her previous band, Revamp. ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html
If you want to find out more about Marko’s vocal prowess, I’d suggest listening to those: from his own band Tarot, a collaboration with another classic Finnish metal band, Waltari, and Marko’s cover of Queen’s Who wants to live forever? ruclips.net/video/xD1q21dr8tw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/CcPER7WIMHM/видео.html ruclips.net/video/XO-pOnEaBkY/видео.html
Imaginaerum was written by Tuomas for Annette to sing. Being written for her style and voice the Annette album Ghost River was excellent. But Nightwish is nothing if not a live band and Floor the epitome of a charismatic performer. Plus Marko, what a voice to compliment Floor. End result: another track making this concert one of the greatest of all time. And you too have fallen into the Nightwish trap. The track you have just heard is your favourite.
The problem with saying "this is my favorite Nightwish song so far" is that you end up saying it with every new song you hear. I strongly recommend that you stay with live performances (especially from 2013 onward with Floor). Some spectacular shows after Wacken are Wembley (2015), Tampere (2015), Buenos Aires (2018), and Hellfeat (2022).
Floor does it all. From full operatic to death growls in seconds. To see this in full glory you have to go back to her previous band 'Revamp'. Here are some examples: Misery’s no Crime: ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html Disdain: ruclips.net/video/tIqzPXzhEuw/видео.html
Favorite Nightwish song? Easy! The last one I listened to.
Feels that way!
Every next one will be your new favorite 😁
Marko is not a difficult name to remember 😉
If you really want to hear her growls listen to ‘yours is an empty hope’
👍 on Yours is an empty hope
I concur 👍
I concur on Wembley version !!!!!
Wembley version please ruclips.net/video/vyLsU7Q333k/видео.html
I concur, at Wembley - Yours is an Empty Hope - ruclips.net/video/vyLsU7Q333k/видео.html
Cakes have layers too 😊
After 20+ years of Nightwish people are finally appreciating a great band.
If you like the growling and want to know what Floor is really capable of, take a small side step and watch her old band Revamp with the song "Disdain" at Graspop. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
I concur !!!
I concur as well!!🤘🔥🤘
Definitely! For more of a “rock” sound try While Love Died from side project Northward, for a “pop” sound her solo album is pure gold, and there are a couple videos of her doing straight up opera. One of the most versatile vocalists in the world imo.
As Disdaine is a great song, for Floor's growls, i would suggest Misery's no crime tho😁😎
For more of a battle/joint singing, 7 days to the wolves in live Wembley Arena '15 or Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea in Buenos Aires '18.
This was great to watch. And if this is your favorite I think you will love: Devil and the deep dark ocean. All the best from Sweden.
New favourite Nightwish song? Never heard that before.
Haha at 2:49 "a little more aggression on her voice.. I like that!" Oh you lucky you! There's just a tad bit more where that came from. You'll understand when you get to e.g. "Yours Is An Empty Hope" (make sure it's the Wembley 2015 version). You'll get the full gritty, fry screaming, growling picture when you finally get to ReVamp, Floor's former band before/besides NW. So much still to enjoy. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
Nightwish has to be watched live!!! 😉😎
"Mature Metal"..... you said it, dude! Great reaction! Best wishes from Namibia
There is a standing joke in the Nightwish community. The next Nightwish song you hear will be you favourite!
Anyway, another articulate and well observed reaction. Also, I like your description of Nightwish as “grownup metal”. Yeah, nicely put.
You should definitely react to “Yours Is An Empty Hope” if you want to hear Floor growl. Live at Wembley is probably the best although on all the live ones her growl does get lost in the mix a tad.
My favourite Nightwish song? Whatever one I'm listening to 🤘
Ghost River is one of my top 3 Nightwish songs.
Absolutely one of my favourites. Marko backing Floor, Floor backing Marko and the “call and reply” between them.
Great reaction.
Want to hear and see Floor's real heavy side?
Check out the song Disdain live at Graspop 2010 (from her former band Revamp)
It's one of my favorites, too. Thanks!
Good stuff sir and if you want more Floor/Marko awesomeness, check out Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean. Cheers!
Loved your reaction to this performance. Get used to saying "This may be my favorite track so far." Floor did do a bit of growling here but if you want to hear another banger where Floor does all of the harsh growling on every chorus while Marko sings clean above her. Here's the link to "Yours Is An Empty Hope" live at Wembley 2015. ruclips.net/video/vyLsU7Q333k/видео.html Thank you for continuing down our Nightwish rabbit hole. Loving it. Nightwish live is always even better than their studio productions. Plus the reaction is way more entertaining on the live performances.
I concur!
More Marco and Floor together -> 7 days to the wolves
For music videos, Noise is ok from NW.
Noise is a good video, but the problem is they butchered the song for it.
7 Days - I concur!! And I would add Song of Myself, Devil and Deep Dark Ocean, and, of course, Poet…..
I would definitely watch a full reaction to the concert.
As far as live or official videos, there are a few good official videos, but honestly they are mostly a band to watch live.
I think every Nightwish journey should include the music video for Noise, as well as the lyric video for Shoemaker, both from their latest album, Human Nature. They have other pretty good music videos, but for me (and many others), those two stand out.
Aside from that, yeah, live is the way to go for this band. They are just crazy good live, especially Floor, who is great in the studio, but only gets her superpowers when performing live.
Wachen the W is pronounced as a V, and yes she growled, I think you are going to find NW is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get, you just know it's gonna be GOOD!!!!!!
Easy way to remember: pronounced like the 80’s band Dokken, but replace the D with a V.
You're really have an effort for some one to pronounce "Wacken" yet you're not even able to spell it right when typing it down... (???) 🙄 🙈
Isn't it an universal "code", better to not say anything if is not not constructive?
Especially on this kinda web world like Utuub is, right?
For a person from the States it is quite simple to guide how Wacken is pronounced.
"Dokken" (a band) = Wacken = Vakken....
Hey... And this boy's first and second language isn't english, not to mention germany...
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥
I concur
Another great one with Marco and Floor both in lead roles is Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean. (live in Buenos Aires)
The Floor/Marko partnership at its finest.
Plenty more facets to Floor's voice for you to still discover.🤘🤘🇬🇧
Another absolute classic....
There vocals Mix is great 🖤
I love the growl vocal that Floor
snuck in there.
Enjoyed your Nightwish 🤘 reactions 🖤🤎
ThanX from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Remember nobody can now all music. Just be glad you have now a new band to follow, right?
The riff intro reminds me of the 80s vibe too. The first time I heard that intro reminds me of Van Halen stuff.
Tuomas has said that this song is a duel between the Devil and Mother Gaia. I love the back and forth vocals. An Anette era song, from the 2011 Imaginareum album. Yes, she growled. This and Yours Is an Empty Hope (Wembley 2015 is a good version) are about it for her growling with Nightwish. She did more of that with her previous band, ReVamp. If you want to hear that band, try Disdain or The Trial of Monsters from Graspop 2010.
Marko Hietala, pronounced something like Hee-a-tall-ah, emphasis on the first syllable , and run the rest together. Chaoszine channel posted and interview with Marko 2 days ago, in it you can hear him pronounce his name.
For more back and forth vocals, Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean (Buenos Aires 2018).
if you want to hear more of them together, try "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" live in Buenos Aires in, I believe, 2018. sooooo many different vocal techniques and very much a storytelling song.
Nice reaction. Greetings from Mexico City 🇲🇽
This is one of my favorite ones too!
Marko is just bad ass.
Epic!!!I love your reaction🥰
Hi from the UK 👋 🇬🇧 division of the Nightwish army floor grows a bit singing as a guest with this band
Soilwork let this river flow with floor jansen live
And also their latest album Human and Nature is the best I think. I hope you react on this someday
🤗🍒🤘🏻 well done
Hallo 😊, your reaction was really 😁👍🤘. Yes, the next song will be you favorite song! I stay with this one. One little background story from me: Floor is married to Hannes van Dahl, drummer of SABATON. Thank you for sharing fun. Greetings from Germany 🤗 alex and EMPPU RULES 🤘😎
Next one is easy to pick. Everdream!
Groooooovy Metal
He got to that step: "This one is my new favorite." lol
Checkout Devil and the deep dark ocean. Heavy and Marko and floor duet
I think the music and lyric videos they did for their last album, Human Nature, are all fascinating. It's definitely Nightwish but has a different coloring to it. All of the songs are thought provoking - they range from rousing to hauntingly beautiful. The last song, Endlessness, features Marko and unfortunately will never be performed live.
I saw all your Nightwish and Sabaton videos so far. They were really entertaining but it was just one phrase from this specific video that made me subscribe immediately.

Yes, that was Floor growling. There is a compilation out there that has her doing this that is mind blowing. It's on RUclips. It's by PencilHB and it is called Floor Jansen Growl compilation 2010-2021.
Marko Tappani Hietala (pron: HEE-ah-Tallah) is a classically trained guitarist, bassist, songwriter and incredible vocalist both solo and in harmony! He plays Warwick basses.
You'll find Marko can do from ROCK to Opera to Growling to folk singing. Live for Nightwish is always better but not all songs make it to live. Master Passion Greed is one of them examples which only Marko sings.
This is probably my fav NW song
Not many vocalists are as versatile as Floor. She kills every song she sings!🤘🎸
Have to agree, one of the best NW songs (particularly this performance of it). Great music, great vocals, great lyrics etc etc etc. 1000% awesomeness! Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next reaction. Greetings from the NW Army (Sydney, Australia Division) 🇦🇺🤘
You should probably watch the _Ghost Love Score_ video again, and pay more attention to her varied vocal styles in that.
The dream like remissness of the dying composer behind the concept of the album this tour was supporting certainly has some very interesting video out of the movie that supported it. In general their videos will add a certain depth to the meaning behind the music. I wouldn't call them better or worse just a different experience.
Nice reaction, pretty same feelings I had once back in time when I first time heard this.. the same gig the same video. Have you done "song of myself" btw already? One of the most epic crowd interaction is in wembley 2015 shudder before the beutiful :)

You want more growl?? I gotchu!!
Nightwish - "Yours Is An Empty Hope" LIVE FROM WEMBLEY (and pay attention to the chorus)
Absolutely.
This is one of my favorites also! Thank you for this!! Noise is a good video to check out!!!! Side note: where’s your friend? I like him too 😊
If I was forced to pick 1 this would probably be it. Maybe Noise...
I love the opening riff- I hear "Atomic Punk". RIP EVH...
The next song will be your favorite.
Nightwish is a band best served live, with one not so tiny exception!
Do yourself a service and check out their music video for "Noise". It is from their newest album, so you'll get a tiny glimpse of how they've grown. And don't misunderstand me, they sound just as fenomenal live as in the video, but the visuals really punch the message of the song home. ;)
It has been mentioned here in the comments, but Floor's earlier band (s), specifically Revamp, with the songs Misery's no crime, Disdaine and Wildcard is great ones for Floor's growling and harsher vocals😎😍😊
Marco the bassist
Empu the gitar player
Troy, the multi instrumentalist
Thuoma, keyboard song writer metal mozart
Kai the drummer
Floor, the Angel
Not Kai. Jukka was in Wacken 2013
@@Selvetarm77 correct😁 i was telling him the wrong one🤐
Marco has an excellent voice in his own right..he won the European version of "The Masked Singer" a couple of years ago.
I always get eighties Van Halen vibes with that riff on the beginning and end. Floor growling yes but please react to The Wembley Arena London version of Yours is an Empty hope Floors growls nice!.
Noise is the one to go for in official videos. You will understand the song better by watching it.
ONE of my favourits.. I have a lot .. all NW 😉
Nice reaction, thank you and go on with NW (there are still many to discover)
NW-Army-Germany ❤🔥
Here's a hint about Marko's lastname: the first three letters (Hie) are pronounced similar to "here" or "hear" without the R in the end.
Well done.
If you liked this, you have to listen to Devil and the deep dark ocean. In Buenos Aires.
Greetings
Just WAIT till you guys do "Yours is an Empty Hope" Live at WEMBLEY 2015 for Floor doing ALL the growls in the chorus (No, it's not Marko, it's FLOOR!) and then check out her previous band ReVamp "Disdain" Live at Graspop 2010 (to start lol) 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Would love to se you react to "Nightwish - Devil and the deep dark ocean" 🙏👏🙌
She had to learn this entire concert on the plane ride over
Nice shirt sir 🤟🏻
You should really check out Yours Is An Empty Hope. Floor growls and it's awesome. A lot of reactors think it's Marko growling but it's Floor. Marko does the singing vocals and Floor does the growling.
Marko's last name... Phonetically it is like "Hee-aye-ta-LA", with emphasis on the last part. 🙂
You really need to do "The Islander" live at Tampere. Its a whole other side of Nightwish, and you will see why Marko is the only man on the planet who can say, "Floor is my backup singer"!
Their vocal interaction on this song, and several others tbh, is insane. You could throw any music genre at Floor to sing, and she'll nail it every single time.
This is one of my very fav NW songs...
Pretty typical that the one you are listening to is your new favorite. Most of us went through the exact same thing.
Great reaction! If you live this one give Weak Fantasy (Tampere) a shot. The most aggressive and angry Floor you will find...watch her eyes :)
Yours is an empty hope is one for a different flavor from Nightwish, it will definitively make your jaw hit the floor ( no pun intended )
If you like this...Check out devil and the deep dark ocean. Floor and Marco are awesome together.
Hello sir, one of my favorites too....but I have a lot of them :D This is a North European spooky fairytale about a female ghost lures the children to the river in the night, with her beautiful voice "do come across" Marco sounds evil, but he is actually the good guy, warning the children not to cross the river. ;) So Floor had the naughty part in this song ;)
I don’t know what else to say. There growing on me.
Vah- ken is how it is pronounced.
Our Valkyrie queen Floor has even sung the phone book if you want to check that out.
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting.
Did you hear the growl? Yea that was Floor.
🤩👍💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
imho "Noise" is a great video that really adds to the track.
LOL, my new favorite. If I had a dollar every time I've heard that... Your next favorite? "Your's is an empty hope" Wembley Arena. I'll write it again, Wembley Arena 2015.
here comes your new favorite : " 7 Days to the Wolves" live Wembley 2015
then "Shudder before the beautiful" live Wembley 2015
to hear all 3 singers together, try "My Walden" ... live Wembley 2015
A fun thing is that Floor is married to Hannes (drummer of Sabaton) and she is 6month pregnant their second child😊 If you want more heavy growling from Floor check out "Yours is an emty hope" or her former band Rewamp "Distein"
I think Tuomas struggles with music videos as he doesn't like to dictate to people what the songs mean, he prefers that the interpretation belong to the listener! and generally the music videos are for the more "commercial sounding" songs. Three that I like with Floor are:
ruclips.net/video/VUb1p8fm7Ag/видео.html&pp=ygUcZW5kbGVzcyBmb3JtcyBtb3N0IGJlYXV0aWZ1bA%3D%3D - Endless Forms Most Beautiful
ruclips.net/video/LczGSoibRe8/видео.html&pp=ygUPbmlnaHR3aXNoIG5vaXNl - Noise
ruclips.net/video/zPonioDYnoY/видео.html&pp=ygUObmlnaHR3aXNoIGVsYW4%3D - Elan
"Vah-ken". "W" in German is usually pronounced as a "V". As in "Vunderbar" (Wunderbar).
19 Hrs, so, all i would Comment is already said:)
Strange Crowd you did set on the trail of your Channel, dont ya:) Bcs mostly there is no Teenie at our trails, but we geeking the Net...i sometimes laugh so hard about myself, when it Comes to NW Recaps. And that was an real great one, Thx Sir. Only one Thing: i know instantly about 5 Songs, that go harder and you will have an hard Time to stay Fav with this one;) and then more from Tarja:D.So much for Grandaddys geeking:)

Twists and turns. Unexpected changes and textures. That is Nightwish my friend. They don't do just metal. They do powerful great melodic music. We all love the live energy and charisma of the band. It also is the only way to experience Floor singing these older songs.
If you want to hear a single from Nightwish with both Marko and Floor singing, check out "Wish I had an Angel". Live from Vah-ken of course. See link.

If you REALLY want to hear Floor growl, "Misery's No Crime", in one of the last performances with her previous band, Revamp. ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html
Wacken is in Germany so it's pronounced VAW-ken
If you want to find out more about Marko’s vocal prowess, I’d suggest listening to those: from his own band Tarot, a collaboration with another classic Finnish metal band, Waltari, and Marko’s cover of Queen’s Who wants to live forever?

Imaginaerum was written by Tuomas for Annette to sing. Being written for her style and voice the Annette album Ghost River was excellent. But Nightwish is nothing if not a live band and Floor the epitome of a charismatic performer. Plus Marko, what a voice to compliment Floor. End result: another track making this concert one of the greatest of all time. And you too have fallen into the Nightwish trap. The track you have just heard is your favourite.
The problem with saying "this is my favorite Nightwish song so far" is that you end up saying it with every new song you hear. I strongly recommend that you stay with live performances (especially from 2013 onward with Floor). Some spectacular shows after Wacken are Wembley (2015), Tampere (2015), Buenos Aires (2018), and Hellfeat (2022).
Floor does it all. From full operatic to death growls in seconds. To see this in full glory you have to go back to her previous band 'Revamp'. Here are some examples: Misery’s no Crime: ruclips.net/video/SNPesLFTnUg/видео.html
