50 year olds find 50 year olds to go to concert with! not that age matters, but the wish to mitigate what's been missed would be equally strong, which then renders the equally yearning the greatest concert sidekick!
@@TheDolen Jukka is more of a showman than Kai I think. Kai is probably a better drummer as far as skill. I only saw them with Kai live, and hopefully will see them again on June 5th in Tampere (I’ll be super pissed if it gets cancelled)
They are both great. Jukka played harder than Kai. I know I've been playing drums for 43 years. It's funny that Jukka and Emppu look like me and my guitar player on stage. Too funny :)
Floor Jansen: - Most perfect live performance - Most powerful voice - She's the one who can change the most her voice: from dramatic soprano to wild harsh rock voice, and even pop - The one who has self confidence the most (clear in the way she stands and moves), she masters stress very well in live shows, the secret behind her great performance - Physically speaking: she's tall, strong, black leather clothes fit her and make her look like a mythological goddess - And she's the best headbanger ever PS: I also like Tarja and Simone very much, but Floor: just unique... truth is truth :)
***** WTF? Did you ever listen to After Forever?! Actually, Floor is the most powerful mezzo, though with her wide vocal range (B2 to D6 or even F6) she can effectively mimic a contralto or a dramatic soprano, even the lyric soprano notes aren't impossible for her. Listen to Ayreon's 01011001, especially 'Ride the Comet', you may get a hard-on from her angelic high notes.
58 yrs. old . Came across Nightwish about a month ago and have not stopped listening to them every spare minute since. Tarja is great but Floor Jansen is the simply the best rock or metal vocalist EVER!
I'm young enough to have been a fan since I was 13, and yeah Floor is their best singer. Anyone insisting Tarja or Anette were better would only do so because they're nostalgic, or because they know little of music and never played an instrument nor sung themselves. It's great to see the 50+ (or baby boomers) in the modern day era aren't as rigid and musically unadventurous as former generations.
I was late to the Nightwish party myself, about 2012 (at age 58), I found them via the Phantom music video which left me saying WTF! How come I didn't find them sooner! And then I learned they had already dropped Tarja and picked up Annette and I was heartbroken. I started listening to a lot of euro symphonic metal, including After Forever, and I thought them OK. Then I heard Nightwish dropped Annette mid tour and added Floor and I was, ugh that's not a stable band. Then I heard Nightwish videos at Wacken 2013 and wow. Just wow. Nightwish has been good for Floor and vice versa. Paul, Nightwish tours the US a lot and crowds are small and the shows are as good as when they play Wacken. So go. Buy a VIP ticket and meet them, they are nice as can be. And I guess you know Floor can sing Puccini too (its on RUclips).
I am a year younger, but everyday i discover more of Nightwish, and altough i am Dutch, i love the band, and not particularly just Nightwish with Floor Jansen, but she really takes Nightwish to an higher level
OMG, 52 years old and now I find the greatest METAL group ever and can't stop listening to them. I just can't get enough. All their songs are amazing and Floor rocks the MFin house.
How many times have I watched this concert? And the Tampere concert? And Wembley.... Floor Jansen is a gift for this world. And Tuomas is unbelievably talented.
I struggle to hold back tears listening to her. Her voice has a stranglehold on my very soul. this observation from a 63yo Great-Grandmother. Yes you read that right.
@@pimaugu 53 soon to be 54 yr old female who also tumbled down the lockdown rabbithole and discovered Nightwish. One of the few positive things to come out of this year!
not quite as expierienced as you with my merely 17 Years, but i really agree with you. This song and this band holds emotions within that no other band can give. It is simply love.
Pozdrav od petra najbolja grupa na planetu savršeni ste vaše pjesme su savršene slušam i gledam vas svaki dan pozdrav marku i najvećoj divi na planetu i ostaloj ekipi puno pozdrav svima nek vas svemogući isus čuva ekipa savršeni ste Petar hrvatska
They absolutely cracked the jackpot with floor.. She's by far one of the best singers out there.. Goosebumps and tears everytime I'm listening to her 😍
And Floor hit the jackpot for getting to be joined the band. Without Nightwish she would not have had the chance to tour in big arenas all over the world. Not get all that fame. So it’s vice versa.
I grew up listening to led zep,hendrix,deep pur,blk sab but man NIGHTWISH IMO slay them all 64years old still rocking to the best band in the world ever
Jeeeeezus! When she blasts that note at 1:15 I feel like the shockwave must have destroyed a couple of buildings in the backround. A few planes dropped out of the sky, a volcano erupted on the other side of the planet and Godzilla himself was like: "What the fuuuuuu..." and went back into the ocean. This woman is a goddess...
Hahaha, exactly. Did you already hear how Floor and Marco finished Romanticide at the same concert? The shockwave destroyed all buildings in the city, hundreds of planes dropped out of the sky, every volcano in the Ring of Fire erupted and Godzilla pissed his pants ;-)
At the end of Romanticide, this Dark Angel's D6 wail at Concorde decibels shattered the wine glasses in the cabinet and brought 120 species of small mammals to the back door.
Well we just lost Marko and his leaving Nightwish will be even worse than Jukka's retirement. It's going to be very difficult to find a bass player who can match Floor's vocals like Marko did and there's nobody else in the band who sings. :-(
@@dieseldog00 Quite a few songs are now out of question for a live show without Marco... Troy way too "thin" vocally, cannot say anything about Jukka Koskinen the interim...
Floor and Nigthtwish I hope they keep going forever!!! longtime fan here ..... Hietala is a great loss tho this is by far the greatest song ever for me.
I've been a huge fan of Nightwish for almost 10 years now. I own all their stuff and I've seen them live. The 29th of August I saw them in Trondheim, Norway and this was the first time seeing Floor. I have to say, she is the most talented woman I've ever seen and heard on stage. Like, who needs Tarja and Anette when you have fucking Floor Jansen?! Don't get me wrong, I like Tarja and Anette too in their own way, but Floor really blew me away. Thanks to her I actually cried like a shitkid on their concert. She gave me this really great concert feeling and Anette never managed to give me that. I'm absolutely going to be front row on their concerts later. She made front row feel like heaven!!
+Linnea Snow Absolutely agree. Her energy and warmth drives their music even better. Tarya was too cold for Nightwish on my opinion. I actually like Anette, but no need to argue that her voice can't be compared to Floor's. She is awesome and she suits Toumas' music the best way.
Divuar LaCroix I agree with what you say about Tarja. She was colder than Floor. She had this brilliant and amazing voice, she was Nightwish, but she was cold. I have never seen Nightwish with Tarja, sadly, but I don't think she would've given the audience the warmth and connection that Floor has. She is a brilliant vocalist and, as you say, she suit Tuomas' music very well! And, yes, Anette is good too, in her own way, but far from as good as Floor!
OMG!! Nightwish is the band with the best LIVE performance EVER! Nightwish: the music from angels coming to earth finding that electric guitar, keyboards and drums are better than harps.
One of the things I love most about Floor is how well her voice harmonises with Marco's. He's a force of nature too, and with Floor, the colours of his voice stand out do well❤😍 and in this song, that is very evident 😍
Nightwish army reporting from Athens 🇬🇷 My opinion, sure, "Ghost Love Score", "The poet and the pendulum", "The greatest show on Earth", are perhaps their most iconic songs and live performances.

In Nightwish, Floor Jansen has found the perfect vehicle for her incredible voice and talent. She has met an equally talented composer and arranger that pushes her limits while the musicianship of the band is in the high range of talent. Notwithstanding her previous bands (After Forever or ReVamp), Nightwish is in a class by iself way beyond the others.
I don't think Floor sees Nightwish as a vehicle. I think she really feels part of the band, and that works both ways, and that is one of the reasons it works so well.
@@jamesbrackett1302 I get your analogy (or metaphore) of driving the hell out of it and giving everybody a ride part of your analogy, and I do agree with that, but the thing is that a vehicle is an impersonal thing. Nightwish is a group of talented and professional people who really respect each other for what they can do, and have fun working together... When you call it a "vehicle" you seem to be implying that Nightwish is something that that only serves the personal advancement for the individual members (that's how we use the word "Vehicle" in Dutch anyway, I don't know if that is the same in English, which is not my native language..), and I think that is exactly the mentality that got Tarja fired... But with the currect members I don't see that mentality... That's why I objected to it. So..., YES I do agree with the driving the hell out of it, and giving everybody a ride part of the analogy, but I do not agree with the impersonal / egoistic part of it...
@@rientsdijkstra4266 I'm so very happy that you got the meaning of what I I said. Because you put it into words very tastefully.Thank you Rients best wishes from South Carolina,USA
As a 71 year old fan of good music I was blown away the first time that I saw this video. I wouldn't have expected that the genre of symphonic metal would appeal to me but I've always enjoyed great vocals with powerful and melodic supporting instruments. This particular recording at Wacken simply "Floored" me. An extremely well-done performance and recording, powerful yet meaningful, intricate and balanced -- one of the best live recordings ever! Sadly the members in 2013 are trickling away. All Hale Nightwish!
Rodrigo Hate to burst your bubble, but that's a fan strategically placed to blow her hair. Standard equipment for a singer like Floor with her gorgeous mane of hair.
Wow i am 74 years old . Feel like 20 years old after listening to this unbelievable band & sound. Missed last week in London but hopefully see them before I go.
Floor is the best that happened to Nightwish since a long time. She combines the voice needed for their music with a great performance on stage. Love her!
I have been listening all their songs for almost three months now. With maybe Jinjer in between. With every song I say "this is their best song", and then I listen another song, and I say the same. But with this song it is different, I have been stuck to this song. I think therefore this is their best song, I think.
Iv just came across this 30mins ago, how te fick am i going to get te sleep now lol love it near 50yrs old got te see this band, ROCK IN 🎸🎸🎸
Never too old to find something new😉
I turned 50 in May and just heard of them about 8 months ago,been MANY sleepless nights catching up... WOW!!

Ones you start listening Nightwish there is no way out !!!
The most true statement in history.
Every drummer should play with the enthusiasm and vigor that Jukka did. Miss him so much :(
Kai is more than enough as a replacement, honestly
Technically Kai is more than enough, but emotionally Jukka can't be replaced. Seen them both live. Jukka was another league.

Floor has never sung like a dramatic soprano. The lies in this thread.
And Floor's voice isn't more powerful than Tarja.

If Nightwish is a vehicle they are driving the HELL out of it. And everybody gets to ride
@@jamesbrackett1302 I get your analogy (or metaphore) of driving the hell out of it and giving everybody a ride part of your analogy, and I do agree with that, but the thing is that a vehicle is an impersonal thing. Nightwish is a group of talented and professional people who really respect each other for what they can do, and have fun working together... When you call it a "vehicle" you seem to be implying that Nightwish is something that that only serves the personal advancement for the individual members (that's how we use the word "Vehicle" in Dutch anyway, I don't know if that is the same in English, which is not my native language..), and I think that is exactly the mentality that got Tarja fired... But with the currect members I don't see that mentality... That's why I objected to it. So..., YES I do agree with the driving the hell out of it, and giving everybody a ride part of the analogy, but I do not agree with the impersonal / egoistic part of it...
@@rientsdijkstra4266 I'm so very happy that you got the meaning of what I I said. Because you put it into words very tastefully.Thank you Rients best wishes from South Carolina,USA

@daAnder71 so what? 😴😴😴
As a 71 year old fan of good music I was blown away the first time that I saw this video. I wouldn't have expected that the genre of symphonic metal would appeal to me but I've always enjoyed great vocals with powerful and melodic supporting instruments. This particular recording at Wacken simply "Floored" me. An extremely well-done performance and recording, powerful yet meaningful, intricate and balanced -- one of the best live recordings ever! Sadly the members in 2013 are trickling away. All Hale Nightwish!
Long live Marko!
Love watching the women in the audience look up to Floor, so good the look in their eyes of inspiration.
Beautiful music, beautiful vocals, BEAUTIFUL FLOOR 💜💜💜💜
I love how the wind is blowing her hair in 3:21 . It gives kind of an epic feeling.
Rodrigo Hate to burst your bubble, but that's a fan strategically placed to blow her hair. Standard equipment for a singer like Floor with her gorgeous mane of hair.
Wow i am 74 years old . Feel like 20 years old after listening to this unbelievable band & sound. Missed last week in London but hopefully see them before I go.
How have i never heard of this guy...his vocal range is absolutely obscene....
Just wow. Instant fan.
Marko is really good.
Floor is the best that happened to Nightwish since a long time. She combines the voice needed for their music with a great performance on stage. Love her!
Totally agree!
Five years without listen Nightwish. But after Floor's entrance, I can hear them again. So happy for that!!!
I have been listening all their songs for almost three months now. With maybe Jinjer in between. With every song I say "this is their best song", and then I listen another song, and I say the same. But with this song it is different, I have been stuck to this song. I think therefore this is their best song, I think.
That voice in the last bit... Damn
Those drums literally come alive with Juka.
My favourite song of the best band in the world!!!!
