One has to admit, they don't play you "songs", they perform stories, that pull your emotions this and that way, make you cry, rage, bang your head, ponder, etc....every emotion, and you can never tell which way they will take you. Floor's voice, and this excellent band's ability to yank my heart this way and that at will is why i love them so much. Well done...well done indeed all. Keep rocking. Much love from the USA.
The spoken part by the young boy is the Dead Boy's Poem within the song. This is a very emotional and personal song for Tuomas. The small child's voice represents Tuomas inner child speaking. When asked what this song was about "Tuomas has said about this song, that it's about if he were to die tomorrow, what would he want to say to everyone that he loves, and that love him..." Notice the small boy on the screen reaching out to the flying swans on the screen. The swan is the guide to the afterlife in Finnish mythology. He is reaching out to implore them to take him with to the other side. A beautiful song filled with sadness from an unfulfilled destiny. Here are the spoken words from Dead Boy's Poem. “If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker’s cry, the one without tears For I’ve given this its strength and it has become my only strength. Comforting home, mother’s lap, chance for immortality Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life” “Teach me passion for I fear it’s gone Show me love, hold the lorn so much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I’m sorry Time will tell (this bitter farewell) I live no more to shame nor me nor you And you… I wish I didn’t feel for you anymore…” A lonely soul… An ocean soul… Tuomas is the lonely soul, and an ocean soul is one that is so deep that it is endless, just like the waters of the oceans. Loved your reaction. One of my favorites. The ending vocal is so powerful I wish it would continue. Peace.
Look at all the members.....their music is bigger than their ego. Everyone wants to make himself or herself smaller than the song they are playing. And than........you get masterpieces!
The whole band is responsible for this masterpiece, but in Wacken video she was a bit more 'loose' on stage. Or how would you call this...maybe its because of the armour she is wearing
Marko's "monster" is a custom made Warwick/Framus Infinity/Panthera double neck. This song is so beautiful and also so sad. Notice the allways cheerful Emppu, how stonefaced he was when doing his solo. Excellent performance all'n'all. Thank you! ⛄👍
Born from silence, silence full of it A perfect concert my best friend So much to live for, so much to die for If only my heart had a home Sing what you can`t say Forget what you can`t play Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes Walk within my poetry, this dying music - My loveletter to nobody Never sigh for better world It`s already composed, played and told Every thought the music I write Everything a wish for the night Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin Died for the beauty the one in the garden Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom Failed in becoming a god Never sigh... "If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker`s cry, the one without tears For I`ve given this its strength and it has become my only strength Comforting home, mother`s lap, chance for immortality Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life" "Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone Show me love, hold the lorn So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I`m sorry Time will tell (this bitter farewell) I live no more to shame nor me nor you And you... I wish I didn`t feel for you anymore..." A lonely soul... An ocean soul... The lyrics for those that want to follow along!
I love you both. The way you express yourself about what you think is perfect music is unique. I thank you very, very much. By the way, I am 80 years old and Dutch, the homecontry of Floor. I am so proud of her.
@@robertcraane7910 78 year old American from Texas. Found Floor at Wacken 2013. As a musician of over 60 years with many genres of music I have loved, Nightwish is the greatest band I have ever heard, and Floor Jansen has no equal as a singer in any genre other than Top Opera or C&W.
Well you two, you know Tuomas often styles himself as a boy, so this is his self written obituary and then the lyrics make more sense to me at least. So a very appropriate use of Shakespeare's writing in Sonnet 71: "if you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it" - he's saying remember the music he's made not the person.
Susie you are completely forgived to stop in that point because that is Magic, pure Magic. In fact we can remains hearing that ending in loop forever and still be awesome. Amazing reaction btw.
Every single time I hear this song...brings me to tears ... Gives me chills .. god I love Nightwish...🎸🤘 Awesome reaction guys....I love when you react to Nightwish..
Great reaction as usual from one of my favorite and hardest working reactors out there...I especially love Suzi Q's reaction when Floor really belts it! 👍💖
Wishmaster is the album that introduced me to Nightwish some 20 years ago. I remember thinking just how emotional this song was when Tarja sang it. Now, hearing Floor sing it, even sick, is so much more poignant and powerful.
As the gates to oblivion welcomes you. There's not one single shred of anything living after our lungs draw it's final breath and deprives the other organs the vital oxygen needed to survive. We return to stardust. A soul and afterlife is silly religious concepts to comfort feeble minded people that our existence isn't finite which according to every single piece of evidence it is.
top 3 nightwish song for sure. long time a go come movie bodyguard where was whitney houston. i think she have voice that is greatest of all. now this floor is getting that same category for sure. thanx to great reaction again and have great day there.
and she was sick during this concert. severely sick, with no voice, according to Floor herself. if you watch the end of the show when they do GLS, when she hits the Floorgasm note, she looks relieved, which she was.
And again a fantastic song and reaction, thank you. If you like: Please please react to Leprous - Slave (live) . Band from Norway. Really fantastic music !
Your reviews are very refreshing. Have you heard of Daria Zaritskaya? I heard her sing while in the Ukraine, she is amazing, would you please do a reaction to her version of deep purples Soldier of fortune, or I was made for loving you by Kiss
Hey love your reactions But please could you do more BABYMETAL I have a suggestion First one very special for Suzy Q It is one of BABYMETALS TOP SONGS AND ALSO SELDOM REACTED IN THE WEST AWADAMA FEVER LEGEND 2015 This AWADAMA IS A CANDY BUT A CARBONATED CANDY THAT AT THE END HAS A CENTER OF BUBBLE GUM THIS SONG IS KAWAII TO THE 10th level The other song is A VERY RESENT ONE AKATSUKIE DARK NIGHT CARNIVAL LIVE IT IS INSANE IS A SU-METALS SOLO SONG WITH A CRAZY MARTIAL ARTS FIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GUITARISTS SOLO ONE OF SU BEST PERFORMANCES EVER JUST SAYING I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE THIS THANKS AND JUST SAYING SUZY IS VERY SPECIAL SHE IS KAWAII TO THE BONES
Piano then Forte? No Double Forte. TRIPLE FORTE!!! I say this in all seriousness; Nightwish would not have lasted this long with their previous singer. Anette was a very good pop singer but not with Tuomas' music. Can you hear her singing Dead Boy's Poem? Song Of Myself? Ghost Love Score??? No. Floor was the right singer at the right time for Nighwish. After she agreed to 'stand in' for Anette, Tuomas told her she had to memorize the whole setlist for their upcoming South American tour and she did that!!
One dilemma with NW is that there is a female singing about male stories?!? - Anyway, this is a great song and performed well, but still I wonder how would it sound with e.g. male opera singer sharing the feelings with the lyrics. Just my thoughts.

Comforting home, mother’s lap, chance for immortality

The sweet piano writing down my life”
“Teach me passion for I fear it’s gone
Show me love, hold the lorn so much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me
I’m sorry
Time will tell (this bitter farewell)
I live no more to shame nor me nor you
And you… I wish I didn’t feel for you anymore…”
A lonely soul…
An ocean soul…
Tuomas is the lonely soul, and an ocean soul is one that is so deep that it is endless, just like
the waters of the oceans. Loved your reaction. One of my favorites. The ending vocal is so powerful I wish it would continue. Peace.
Man, your text was so powerful. Thank you for it.
@@petrihietanen1102 Tuomas is the genius. I am only able to feel his creations at a deeply emotional level. Thank you for the compliment my friend.
Look at all the members.....their music is bigger than their ego. Everyone wants to make himself or herself smaller than the song they are playing. And than........you get masterpieces!
There are no egoes on that stage just awesome musicians
Every member of NW shines!
@Julian Hofhine , scam......people don’t do it! You will regret..
One of Floor's finest vocals....
And just after she was ill too. It's crazy :)
This performance is so underrated, but it's one of my faves. Her vocals are beautiful.
ONE OF MY FAVES ..STILL CHOKE BACK A TEAR AT THE BEAUTY OF THIS SONG ..
Ditto
Me too..
I though now for once i could watch this without breaking. Failed, as always, at "And you... I wish I didn't feel for you anymore..."
Triple ditto to all of the above 🤘😭❤️
she was sick in this concert and she kill it , almost 3 hours singing
IKR?
3h?
Looks like the Decades Tour was 2h shows.
It was like this in Paris, and it's also 2h on the DVD with Buenos Aires!
@@TheMiataDriver I was on 3 different Decades concerts - all 2 h - but they felt like 30 sekonds😉
The whole band is responsible for this masterpiece, but in Wacken video she was a bit more 'loose' on stage. Or how would you call this...maybe its because of the armour she is wearing
Very genuine reaction. Another Nightwish masterpiece. Thank you both, love your channel.
I loved Suzi's reaction to this.The Nightwish Army definitely has another recruit.
For me one of their greatest songs - instead of the famous trifecta it should be the FABULOUS QUARTET . This song is just so AWESOME.
Totally agree bro and look at them, black silhouettes in front of the bright background... Awesome
Awesome floor.....
Nightwish brings emotions, every time. No band did that ever before to me!
Don't apologize for taking it back! We all do!! \m/
Marko's "monster" is a custom made Warwick/Framus Infinity/Panthera double neck. This song is so beautiful and also so sad. Notice the allways cheerful Emppu, how stonefaced he was when doing his solo. Excellent performance all'n'all. Thank you! ⛄👍
"The Beast" 46lb of awesome.
@@darkiee69 Heavy.😎
@@darkiee69 According to TankTheTech The Beast is only a bit over 8 kg or 17-18 lbs, not 46.
Singers sing what they can, Floor sings whatever and however she wants even while being ill.... It's insane.
Born from silence, silence full of it
A perfect concert my best friend
So much to live for, so much to die for
If only my heart had a home
Sing what you can`t say
Forget what you can`t play
Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes
Walk within my poetry, this dying music
- My loveletter to nobody
Never sigh for better world
It`s already composed, played and told
Every thought the music I write
Everything a wish for the night
Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin
Died for the beauty the one in the garden
Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom
Failed in becoming a god
Never sigh...
"If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it
Remember only the verse, songmaker`s cry, the one without tears
For I`ve given this its strength and it has become my only strength
Comforting home, mother`s lap, chance for immortality
Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew
The sweet piano writing down my life"
"Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone
Show me love, hold the lorn
So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me
I`m sorry
Time will tell (this bitter farewell)

And you... I wish I didn`t feel for you anymore..."
A lonely soul... An ocean soul...
The lyrics for those that want to follow along!
Never sigh for a better world. It's already composed, played and told.
One of the most beautiful lines of lyric ever written!
I love you both. The way you express yourself about what you think is perfect music is unique. I thank you very, very much. By the way, I am 80 years old and Dutch, the homecontry of Floor. I am so proud of her.
55 year old Dutch guy here...totally agree.
You should be my friend.She is an incredible vocalist/performer and seems like a really genuine person too.
You make me feel proud. I am just 53, and I admire you are still this young at heart Ger! Je hebt er een heleboel vrienden bij nu...

Just look at her emotion in this song, amazing!
What a beautiful video and Floors outfit is my very fav so far!! Totally tearing up!😭😈🤘💖
My favorite Floor vocal performance. Many people told me she was sick during this concert. Say what!
She was so sick, she didn't take part in the "meet and greet" after the show.
She is the QUEEN ❤️
Kiitos Tuomas Holopainen for this beautiful music. FI.
I just love this band ... and this song. Among my top 3 ... definitely. Floor appeared heartbreakingly here. 😍
Another great reaction, tnx guys. That final verse could be my fav Floor moment ever...

This is one of my personal favorites - one of 104 🤣.
Nightwish doing Nightwish things 👍 🤘 🤘
This is such a beautiful Song ! Great Reaction 😎💜 as always. Love you guys !
Every single time I hear this song...brings me to tears ... Gives me chills .. god I love Nightwish...🎸🤘 Awesome reaction guys....I love when you react to Nightwish..
Most beautiful song this one, love it!
she is the real queen of metal FLOOR JANSSEN.
Empu ends his solo with a look that says "my work is done".
Great reaction as usual from one of my favorite and hardest working reactors out there...I especially love Suzi Q's reaction when Floor really belts it! 👍💖
Ich vermisse Taria Turunen bei Nightwish... Sie hat eine außergewöhnliche Stimme, an die nur noch Evenessence herankommt 🥲
idiot
the range floor has taria can only dream of. het pronounciation of words live is more like a 4 year old. pls keep quit
Gorgeous song, thankyou for doing this one.
Wishmaster is the album that introduced me to Nightwish some 20 years ago. I remember thinking just how emotional this song was when Tarja sang it. Now, hearing Floor sing it, even sick, is so much more poignant and powerful.
Beautiful Floor!!!
Ooh, this is special one. Didn't realise you guys haven't yet seen this. Thumbed up even before watching 😆👍
A lonely soul, an ocean's soul. Beautiful ending.
Amazing song, and that groove at the end just kills.
Have you seen Marco singing The Islander from Tampere Finland
I have the feeling that this song is so underrated!
As the gates to the afterlife welcome me, as long as Floor sings me this song, I will not hesitate to enter.
As the gates to oblivion welcomes you. There's not one single shred of anything living after our lungs draw it's final breath and deprives the other organs the vital oxygen needed to survive. We return to stardust. A soul and afterlife is silly religious concepts to comfort feeble minded people that our existence isn't finite which according to every single piece of evidence it is.
If you do feel this way, I recomend you to listen to Endlessness, by the same Nightwish...
top 3 nightwish song for sure. long time a go come movie bodyguard where was whitney houston. i think she have voice that is greatest of all. now this floor is getting that same category for sure. thanx to great reaction again and have great day there.
Yes! The gears of Floor!🤘
and she was sick during this concert. severely sick, with no voice, according to Floor herself. if you watch the end of the show when they do GLS, when she hits the Floorgasm note, she looks relieved, which she was.
That's unbelievable.What a testament to her vocal abilities.I never cease to be amazed by her and Nightwish as a whole.
me: I want to go on the moon.
Floor: hold my bier ...
I don´t know if you see this, but her posing is the same like the boy on the video wall.
I love this Version ❤
I thought Suzi was gonna fall out of her chair! :)
Ghost Love Score, The Poet and the Pendulum, The Greatest Show on Earth, Dead Boy's Poem. The Fabulous Four.
I would add Song of Myself, the full 16 minutes including the poem at the end
One of my favourite songs
Brilliant Reaction Again!
Love youre reaction every time, thanks and stay safe
And btw that doubleneck warwick Is called the beast! =)
Never seen Empuu without a smile. He was deep into this tune. Kick ass Floor. Female Freddie Mercury
I love you Susy and Travis❤️❤️❤️
this is an awesome song
Love all your reactions!
Thanks for doing my favorite 🙏🏻
🤩👍💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
La reacción más esperada por toda Latinoamérica unida
This has always been "the song" from Nightwish for me...
At this point in Nightwish evolution Troy is now the third guitarist giving an even bigger sound to the band
Marko's double necked Bass/Guitar is called The Beast :)
I hope you guys have bought the tickets to the next NW concert already! whenever that is.
Hi Guys. Floor looks regal standing there with her arms out.
Mike drop. 🎤 ⬇️ 👏

Have you heard of Daria Zaritskaya?
I heard her sing while in the Ukraine, she is amazing, would you please do a reaction to her version of deep purples Soldier of fortune, or I was made for loving you by Kiss
Please react the same Song as from wishes to eternity! The best version, I think.

Hey love your reactions
But please could you do more BABYMETAL
I have a suggestion
First one very special for
Suzy Q
It is one of BABYMETALS TOP SONGS AND ALSO SELDOM REACTED IN THE WEST
AWADAMA FEVER LEGEND 2015
This AWADAMA IS A CANDY BUT A CARBONATED CANDY THAT AT THE END HAS A CENTER OF BUBBLE GUM
THIS SONG IS KAWAII TO THE 10th level
The other song is
A VERY RESENT ONE
AKATSUKIE DARK NIGHT CARNIVAL LIVE
IT IS INSANE IS A SU-METALS SOLO SONG
WITH A CRAZY MARTIAL ARTS FIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GUITARISTS SOLO
ONE OF SU BEST PERFORMANCES EVER
JUST SAYING
I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE THIS
THANKS
AND JUST SAYING
SUZY IS VERY SPECIAL SHE IS KAWAII TO THE BONES
Piano then Forte? No Double Forte. TRIPLE FORTE!!! I say this in all seriousness; Nightwish would not have lasted this long with their previous singer. Anette was a very good pop singer but not with Tuomas' music. Can you hear her singing Dead Boy's Poem? Song Of Myself? Ghost Love Score???

You gotta react to a real good band called The Black Dahlia Murder! Earlier stuff first
React new years day misunderstood
I think Floor does helluva job, but please listen Tarjas version.
Floor is my favorito singer but This song i prefer with Tarja
One dilemma with NW is that there is a female singing about male stories?!? - Anyway, this is a great song and performed well, but still I wonder how would it sound with e.g. male opera singer sharing the feelings with the lyrics. Just my thoughts.
The Queen FloorJansen..Nightwish Army🔥🤘
Mongolian "The HU" next
I like Tarja's version more. Maybe because it was written when she was doing the vocals, but I prefer it. It's more soulful, imo.
Suzi, does the guy along side you need to wear such an inane grin... Nice channel otherwise xx
You REALLY NEED to see TARJAS VERISION BETTER! Big difference!!!!😀👍
I prefer the original with Tarja
so much fake in your reactions....
Lots love Waken as I do but the crowd reaction is priceless here.
The back drop depicts nord legend that swans carry you onto the after life
I think that might be a Finnish legend, and also connects to The Swan of Tuonela by Sibelius.
