Funny Emppu related thing to this.. on the Imaginaerum tour (previous to the album this opened) in an interview he was asked "If you were given creative control over an Nightwish album, what would be your masterpiece?" "It would open with a solo and that first song would have another 4 solos. That would be be ideal" . I remembered that, because funny metal elf. It occured to me not long ago, if you count the keyboard solos, he was teasing... Keyboard solo opener, 4 part keys guitar dualling solo in the middle.
I was there! Such a good show! 🤩 Arch Enemy and Amorphis was the support ! This show had one of Nightwish's best ever performances in to date. The Poet and the Pendulum. One to do later down the line (with the captions turned on! And backstory read up on 😉)
Next Marko's song from same concert, While your lips are still red? 😉 And yes Marko is performing in December here in Finland. He is part of group of Finnish metal singers and they sing christmas songs. It's called Raskasta Joulua tour. He have been in there many years now. You might could react some of their stuff when Christmas comes...? Also Floor has been there.
@@TheThamesmen Might be going to Denver since I have friends there and saw they added a few more USA dates. I'm in Arizona though, so either will work one way or another!
Emppu is a great guitarist. And also a great performer having fun with the audience throwing pics to them. I was wondering how many pics he is throwing during the whole tour. Thanks for this reaction. Waiting for the next one.
Just yesterday I stumbled to an unofficial video of Nightwish playing in Toulouse France, only a few weeks before this Wembley concert I believe, and there was a funny incident. The zipper of Floor's right foot boot broke and the part that reaches above her knee fell completely to the floor. She tried to fix it in the middle of the song whenever she was not singing. No success. Then she took of the other boot too. Then Floor and Marko were joking about it. Floor said she was lucky it was the boot and not something else that broke and fell down. Marko: "What do you mean?" Floor: "That it was not some other bodypart that was revealed." Then Marko said something I can not hear, but Floor replied something like "Thank you Marko for your elaborate comment!" My guess is that Marko mentioned some other bodyparts that could have been exposed. Then Marko said something about him saying things he should not, (he is known for his bad jokes). He ended by saying: "She's going to whip my ass later!" And the audience had fun.
fine reaction. entertaing as ever. NW and Floor at their best - as ever....they never disappointing. Take a look to Buenos aires - Devil and the deep dark ocean. You will love it.
Thank you, gentlemen of Thames. An epic opening and an awesome concert. Personally, I would have been quite nuts in the audience there and my ticket would have been covered even after this song.
I also read somewhere that Marko will be performing at the Raskasta Joulua (Heavy Christmas) concert in December. As much as I like his successor Jukka Hoskinen, such a sweet guy and also from Wintersun, like Kai the drummer, as a session bassist for the upcoming tour, I hope Marko is coming back. As for the drumming..check out Kai with his former band Wintersun..."Sons of Winter and Stars". I think that is a Mt. St. Helen's banger or another one you can come up with🤣. Btw...I have a question for my NWA brothers ans sisters in Arms. A few days ago I watched again that gloomy and dark documentary of theirs "End of Innocence". At 2.01.02 they play a piece of music which sounds very much as the "skeleton dance" from Tribal. I haven''t listened to the early albums of NW as I do not like Tarja's voice very much, sorry Tarja fans, but as Tribal didn't excists at that time... can somebody tell me from what song that music is, please? Thanks a lot. Note for you Alex and George...Tribal is from their lastest album Human Nature and if you have time...check out that documentary. It says a lot of Tuomas's mind and emotions at around 2000-2001. He expresses lots of it in his later songs. Have a nice day guys!
Hoi Monique. Ik denk dat het stukje muziek wat je bedoelt uit 'Slaying The Dreamer' komt. Kijk maar eens naar de Buenos Aires versie hiervan, vanaf minuut 2.48
@@martine3293 Ja inderdaad! Ik heb dat nummer vaak bekeken maar nooit is het kwartje gevallen😂. Grappig dat dat door die docu nu wel kwam haha. Dankewel!!
@@hannuhanttamakela2673 So sad if you read that word "Ex"😔. But then..is there another word by which you describe his current position. Difficult! Greetings!
I'm looking forward to 13th of December - Nightwish at Webley Arena again! I hope this concert will be just as fantastic! (well..honestly, I have no doubts😉)Cannot wait to see them live again! 🤘😄
Yeah, you mere mortals....Shudder before the Goddess...🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Epic battle between the Metal Mozart and the Electric Hobbit...lol 🤩🤩🤩🤩 Nice reaction guys...as always 🤗🤗 Kai is known as the Human Metronome 😎😎😎
A EPIC song can only get better when you see two fantastic guy's show the love for the band, and give a great reaction Thanks for this one, loved it again, FANTASTIC
It's was a great opener - and the second one - that ROAR Floor ends with!!! Tuomas and Marko were really playing with Floor's abilities in Wembley - she showed much more of her incredible voice and versatility, than she had done in previous Nightwish concerts.
And if I am not mistaken, this was the opener for the show. If you open with that, I would say that you have to be pretty freaking confident in the rest of the show. 🔥
Hey guys, another great reaction. Guess who opened for Nightwish back in 2002? Floor with her band After Forever, they also toured with Nightwish and that's where they met and kept in touch ever since.
Another Great opening and massive sound by Nightwish 🤘🤩🤘. But if you think this is explosive and big (rightly so, I maid add ) , then the next song what comes after this song .... “Yours is an Empty Hope”, will atomize you 🤘🔥🤘. NWSU 🤘😎🤘.
As a 80s kid, that thames intro is just so... god damn reminding of my age. Thank you lovely fellas. Also this songs start is sooooaring. Love it in the car.
You see,this is why this is my favourite band?!! 💥 Just woke up with a bad headache,watching your EPIC reaction and there it is-biggest smile on my face 😁🤟 Thanks,was waiting for this one. Such a banger! Greetings from the Netherlands ❤🤍💙
Kai is a metronome on drums and just keeps going when most would falter, Floor was stunning, Tuomas was just on point, Emppu was stunning, Troy was brilliant even when he made the odd mistake, did not let it phase him. Wembley was a classic concert. Marco Is doing a few concerts in Finland around Yule
Yes this was the Wembley 2015 opener, what i still miss is you guys doing the Wacken 2013 opener! That one will knock your socks off even more. (Dark Chest Of Wonders).
Hmmm....put Nightwish up in a poll and Nightwish is the 🏆winner...no doubt...but finally you did this great song, a song written for Floor by Tuomas. 🤘
love your reactions, knew that one would "blow your socks off" haha, in answer to your query: Nightwish was the headliner in that sold-out venue with other bands being Morphis and Arch Enemy.
@@TheThamesmen do some Tarja songs before that, Sleeping Sun from End Of An Era concert and also Creek Mary's Blood from the same show. Don't think Phantom is enough. She was really amazing.
@@TheThamesmen I'd also suggest Planet Hell from End of an Era, and maybe Deep Silent Complete and Walking in the Air (Yes, it's a cover of the song from The Snowman) both from the From Wishes to Eternity concert, pre-Marko Nightwish.
NIGHTWISH🤘💥🔥Never disappoints you. The voices of Marko and FLOOR fit together perfectly. It sounds SOO GOOD. Also instrumentally they make this song so COMPLETE. AWESOME. Thanks 👍🔝
What I heard is that Marko will be on the Raskasta Joulua tour. Four shows with an all star cast of Finland's metal scene performing Christmas songs. You must do a reaction to Marko and Floor singing Ave Maria from the 2019 tour.
Hi again from uk - “a Yellowstone “ love it - like you both discovered Nightwish quite recently , going to see them Birmingham next month for first time and Wembley in December - I’m so looking forward to these .
So, I've basically spent three days watching Thamesmen video reactions that, for Nightwish songs, date back about four months. I've been stingy on comments for them, because I've had mixed reactions to the songs -- I think some are terrific, but some I would simply shrug my shoulders. Terrific musicians, the playing is great in every video. I liked this song a lot -- definitely a banger!
Man, I love this performance, and I wish I had been there. They had that crowd whipped into a frenzy and ready to bust out of the arena and sack London! Like a proper Viking burn and pillage!
Hi guy s arjen lucassen comes in december with a new star one album. Floor and irene jansen are on it again as well as steve vain and some other new and old singers
A certified Banger indeed. No one does it better. Tuomas is the writer and composer Check out his score of Adventures of Scrooge McDuck yep the cartoon uncle of Donald
Firstly, thanks for warming me up with a reaction to such a great number - knew you'd both be blown away by it - I just returned from a great night out with Wifey in the pouring rain after watching the latest Bond film (highly recommended btw) so was soaked to the skin - a French storm so I read! Just wanted to say that Amorphis is supporting them again on the UK tour again - so they know what they're letting themselves in for. In LA I think the support band is Beast in Black who's lead singer is Yannis Papadopoulos who has a truly impressive voice - he has done his own take of 'Ghost Love Score' which is well worth a look on RUclips - would be great to see you both react to it one day - it is Nightwish related after all. Beast in Black have a very unique retro sound - a sort of 80's Metal/Synths/Anthemic band - but brilliant musicians all the same. I'm making you a Honorary Thamesman promise that you won't regret doing GLS by Yannis Papadopoulos! Great reaction as always chaps. If you're still reading (well done 😆) but on a serious note, you chaps brighten my day!
Yeah, interplay with keyboard and guitar the highlight for me. If this was the opening song it really does a great job of bringing everyone into it before really kicking off. Top of the Pops? If we morph the two of you together I think we'd get Kenny Everett! I mean that in the best possible taste! More please!
Hi from Finland! I watched all your reactions to Nightwish today (+ that 1 Sabaton), and now I subbed. I like you guys 🙂 There's still so many great songs to discover and react. Like Song of myself (Wacken), Last ride on the day (Wacken), Yours is an empty hope (Wembley), Weak fantasy (Tampere), not to mention new songs from the latest album! Pan and Tribal being my favorite from there. I've already been lucky to see them live twice last summer, with their new songs (and without Marko 😢), and going to see them again in December. Keep these reactions coming! 😊
A note on the drummer, as you've most likely read by now, Kai from Wintersun. What you may not know, though is that Kai used to instruct Jukka on some aspects. That's how you end up with a new drummer that doesn't break up how the band sounds. Nightwish were incredibly lucky to get Kai when Jukka couldn't continue his drumming career.
NW army is awesome, and did anyone suggested Wintersun to you. If not check it out. Its the band that Kai the drummer came from to replace Jukka. And now the bass player to replace Marko as well. Just a suggestion for the pool.... recomended track. Wintersun- Sons of winter and stars. Live rehearsal at sonic pump studio.
I have tried to Shudder Before the Beautiful but I am so handsome, the beautiful always end up shuddering before me. I have a request for Nightwish. Endless Forms Most Beautiful. From the show in Tampere, Finland. If you need a good copy (wink, wink) let me know.
Hello again, you liked the show opener at Wembley I see. No wonder every one likes it. But you skipped a few of the Wacken Open Air 2013, you really should do them, look at the list of all songs. I would suggest you listen to the song: Song of Myself, Wacken 2013, if you want to hear a heavy and surprising song. Keep up the good work. I wil say hi for you to Floor, in my own language: Dutch, because she is also Dutch.
Yes! Yes, the Amorphis band also works well as a warmer for Nightwish. Many of Amorphis' songs are based on the Finnish national poem epic Kalevala, published in 1835 and 1849. The poems were collected by a doctor while touring the villages of Karelia, where people sang them, also as singing battles of that time. While studying the Finnish language, the young J.R.R.Tolkien got excited about the mystical stories of the Kalevala. Try “Death of a King” first ruclips.net/video/Kc-gEds3eTM/видео.html
First of all, a huge compliment. I like your channel, British humor coupled with a lot of sympathy and expertise. Nice. Now I hope EPICA stays on place 2, you need a Simone Simons song like "Rivers" or "Unchain Utopia" (OMEGA ALIVE). If it should stay epic "Design your Universe" live (Retrospect). Of course I also hope that Rammstein will not be blocked further by YT. Also great would be a reaction to Blind Guardian "The Bard's Song & Valhalla" Wacken 2016. You know Hansi Kürsch as singer already from the Ayreon videos. So remains exciting. I'm looking forward to it. BTW "The Bard's Song" is the HYMN of Metal - it is a must do :D

Love to you also!!
Yes this was the opening number and their support that night was Amorphis and Arch Enemy.
Well at least Amorphis is fire 🔥 don't know that other.
ok, so not a bad start.. Same tour Tampere gig had Children of Bodom opening, so that was awesome too.
Did they survive? Thank you for supporting us and being here.

That's how you open a show!!!
You've only scratched the surface with Nightwish too!
I think we are in DEEP! Thanks for subscribing and supporting our journey
@@TheThamesmen Not deeper than balls deep until now. If you watch Yours is an empty hope you will get to know a different kind of Floor. ;-)
Yes, this was the grand opener on that magical night - and straight to the business they went. Haha, it's snowing here. ⛄❄👍
straight for the throat!
I was there! Such a good show! 🤩
Arch Enemy and Amorphis was the support !
This show had one of Nightwish's best ever performances in to date. The Poet and the Pendulum. One to do later down the line (with the captions turned on! And backstory read up on 😉)

Yeah, interplay with keyboard and guitar the highlight for me. If this was the opening song it really does a great job of bringing everyone into it before really kicking off. Top of the Pops? If we morph the two of you together I think we'd get Kenny Everett! I mean that in the best possible taste! More please!
OMG hope not
With a bit of luck i will be at Wembly on the 13th Dec ..Fingers crossed .
good luck
Awesome show opener 🔥🤘now do the second song which is “Yours is an empty hope” ❤️🇬🇧
Noted. Be well and thanks for being here.
Hi from Finland! I watched all your reactions to Nightwish today (+ that 1 Sabaton), and now I subbed. I like you guys 🙂 There's still so many great songs to discover and react. Like Song of myself (Wacken), Last ride on the day (Wacken), Yours is an empty hope (Wembley), Weak fantasy (Tampere), not to mention new songs from the latest album! Pan and Tribal being my favorite from there. I've already been lucky to see them live twice last summer, with their new songs (and without Marko 😢), and going to see them again in December.
Keep these reactions coming! 😊
MANY Thank and hello Finland.... more NW soon!
oh and hav a great gig
A note on the drummer, as you've most likely read by now, Kai from Wintersun. What you may not know, though is that Kai used to instruct Jukka on some aspects. That's how you end up with a new drummer that doesn't break up how the band sounds. Nightwish were incredibly lucky to get Kai when Jukka couldn't continue his drumming career.
"The Greatest Band on Earth"
True!
NW army is awesome, and did anyone suggested Wintersun to you. If not check it out. Its the band that Kai the drummer came from to replace Jukka. And now the bass player to replace Marko as well. Just a suggestion for the pool.... recomended track. Wintersun- Sons of winter and stars. Live rehearsal at sonic pump studio.
They have - will check. Thank you for supporting us and being here.
I have tried to Shudder Before the Beautiful but I am so handsome, the beautiful always end up shuddering before me. I have a request for Nightwish. Endless Forms Most Beautiful. From the show in Tampere, Finland. If you need a good copy (wink, wink) let me know.
It's so good! and yes... thanks for the offer - George knows!!!
You need to do Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean form Buenos Aires 2018
Noted - be well
on this tour, atleast in Tampere the opener was Children of Bodom, so the stage was already red hot when NW came on.
Ask the themes men, they know about Stringray 🤣🤣🤣❤️🎵🤘
And Joe 90!
FREEZING IN lOS aNGELES MY HEART BLEDS FOR YOU GEORGE
HA HA!!!
Floor HAS the pipes to carry this bandto the heights thus unknown to music
She can stun a badger a mile off!
Hello again, you liked the show opener at Wembley I see. No wonder every one likes it. But you skipped a few of the Wacken Open Air 2013, you really should do them, look at the list of all songs. I would suggest you listen to the song: Song of Myself, Wacken 2013, if you want to hear a heavy and surprising song. Keep up the good work. I wil say hi for you to Floor, in my own language: Dutch, because she is also Dutch.
:) Take care
Always
Always!
Now that's how you open a show
Not kidding!!!
Nice one guy's. I'm in Stone, Dartford near the QE2 bridge and it's starting to get cool here.
Move. I will put you up!
@@TheThamesmen Thanks for the offer, but some of use are born to suffer. At 76 I'm going nowhere. Already been.
You can also take a look to Floors own projects - like Shallow on Beste Zangers-Show 2019....and much more...
Noted - Thanks. also thanks for being here and supporting us.
@@TheThamesmen You have one of the best entertaing reaction channel in my opinion. Greetings from Vienna to California.
There's a drum cam video of this song in the depths of the youtube. Recommended watch, not for a reaction necessarily, but it's worth a watch.
Cool - When I have time I will check.
Yes! Yes, the Amorphis band also works well as a warmer for Nightwish. Many of Amorphis' songs are based on the Finnish national poem epic Kalevala, published in 1835 and 1849. The poems were collected by a doctor while touring the villages of Karelia, where people sang them, also as singing battles of that time. While studying the Finnish language, the young J.R.R.Tolkien got excited about the mystical stories of the Kalevala. Try “Death of a King” first ruclips.net/video/Kc-gEds3eTM/видео.html
First of all, a huge compliment. I like your channel, British humor coupled with a lot of sympathy and expertise. Nice. Now I hope EPICA stays on place 2, you need a Simone Simons song like "Rivers" or "Unchain Utopia" (OMEGA ALIVE). If it should stay epic "Design your Universe" live (Retrospect). Of course I also hope that Rammstein will not be blocked further by YT. Also great would be a reaction to Blind Guardian "The Bard's Song & Valhalla" Wacken 2016. You know Hansi Kürsch as singer already from the Ayreon videos. So remains exciting. I'm looking forward to it. BTW "The Bard's Song" is the HYMN of Metal - it is a must do :D
Thanks for the kinds words and noted. Be well and thanks for being here.
Floor & Marko.
Great together!!
I think you gonna like Devil and the deep dark ocean (live Buenos Aires)
Will check!
