  • Nightwish live has been one of the most requested videos left in the comments, and I can see why! Very theatrical and what a killer voice Floor Jansen has! This is really the first time I have heard a metal vocalist sing in such a high range with such ease. Reminds me of Opera to be honest! Overall I was very entertained.

    Hello Charis Sellick ! Nightwish fans here, your musical quest summoned us.
    Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing here at Wacken Open Air festival 2013, together with Floor Jansen, the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of a 82k audience.
    Also a recent sad news - these days Marco Hietala, the bass player and male singer of the band, announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least - we'll see what the future brings to us.
    About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners.
    As I saw, you enjoyed the powerful performance of the band, together with the stellar vocals of our Dutch metal queen, Floor Jansen. Hope you'll continue on this path.
    Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory):
    " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland.
    Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals .And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen . Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition.
    Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her.
    There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
    I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol "
    Hoping you'll continue this journey with us, I'll drop here a list of songs (with links) with the current lineup of the band you may like (please consider this list of links only as "a tip of the iceberg", an indication that they have a vast and very diverse repertoire, and not as something mandatory):

    Last but not the least - they just released their 9th studio album on April 10th 2020 named "Human :||: Nature" - just take a peek to their official playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLihZ3gi5Yvzc0pfH2cbNKUUX8o3pb8eVg (for example: "Shoemaker", the 3rd track from this album, tells the story of Eugene Shoemaker, one of the founders of planetary science, whose ash was sent on the Moon after his death, as a tribute from the scientific community ..)
    The links presented above are with the current singer of the band, Floor Jansen, since I'm a fan of the recent era of the band, with Floor as the singer. I have nothing against previous singers, but I do not consider myself the most suitable person to give specific recommendations from their repertoires.
    ** I think it's your place, fans of previous Nightwish eras, to present to the reactors the best recommendations with Tarja Turunen and Anette Olzon, because you know and appreciate them directly. I encourage you to add the best recommendations in the comments. **
    That being said, I will add here the message left the other days by an old fan of the band, @Fabrizio Gorla: " To be fair to the old fanbase, you may want to include also some of these songs. Just be fair and don’t make a comparison if you don’t want an open war in your comment section.

    You can also react to Floor Jansen "tapping" other musical genres in Beste Zangers 2019 (TV show from Netherlands) here is a playlist made by Floor herself (start listen it in reverse order..): ruclips.net/p/PL8iSYWeQhlimgUnWw1FDdiJN0msPzqpLo
    For entire episodes of the show with En subtitles, you should check Denise Hofs's DM channel: dailymotion_dot_com/xpinkeu/videos
    In these pandemic times, Floor Jansen has decided to make covers for us, which you can find on her YT channel - there are already 6 covers there, the first is "Let It Go" from "Frozen" (20 weeks ago, already over 2.271M views), the second - "Alone" from "Heart" , released 18 weeks ago - 1.085M and counting. Then 16 weeks ago she dropped the third cover, in Dutch: "Is Dit Nou Later" from Stef Bos - already 269K views. Just before Christmas she made a powerful cover of "Ave Maria" - already 286K views. 13 weeks ago she added a remastered / remixed version of the first one, "Let It Go" - already 188K. 11 weeks ago she added to the list a powerful cover of "Adagio" by Lara Fabian (!!!) - 394K views now. Then, just 6 weeks ago she gave us the last one so far: "Oblivion" by M83 - 409K views in 6 weeks..
    Thank you! Waiting for more Nightwish reactions. All the best from RO. Stay safe.

    Our Dutch Valkyrie Queen is considered the best and most versatile female singer of our time. To see how she developed this, check out her former bands 'After Forever' and 'Revamp'. She joined 'After Forever' in 1997 at the age of 16. My favourite song is 'Energize Me'. They made a very nice music video from this one. They disbanded in 2009 and Floor started her own band 'Revamp' from scratch. Here she experimented with different vocal styles within one song, from full operatic to serious growling in seconds. The songs 'Disdain' and 'Wild Card' are good examples. Then the call came from Nightwish in 2012 to fill in for the remainder of the American Tour at first. But the rest of the World Tour followed also. After she became a permanent member of Nightwish after this Wacken concert (the official announcement came later, but it was clear that this combination was made in Walhalla), she kept performing with 'Revamp' for a couple of years, but it became obvious, that she could not combine the two much longer and they disbanded in 2016. Her side project 'Northward' is also worth a look. The song 'While Love Died' shows yet another side of Floor. Her mindblowing performances on the Dutch TV show 'Beste Zangers 2019' gave her at last some more recognition in her home country, where she was relatively unknown until then. Also on RUclips there are numerous guest appearances with other bands to find. As live concerts were cancelled and home isolation due to the Covid situation, Floor uploaded many interesting videos in the last year, such as chats with her idols and other singers. mindblowing covers, vocal masterclasses and so much more. Just go to her RUclips channel and unpack some of the presents she left there. Floorgasm alert! Her latest video is a must see. She reacts to herself doing this performance at Wacken 2013. Lots of technical info and some memories of her early days with Nightwish.

    Floor had opera training as a young lass but she switched to Symphonic Metal and started two bands before depression sidelined her for a year or so. When Nightwish's second singer Anette Olzon got sick and was admitted to a hospital, Nightwish's founder and keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen called Floor and asked her to stand in. The rest is ongoing history.
    As to Floor's vocal abilities, from listening to her go from the Alto range to high Soprano(4 octaves), in many performances, I consider her to be a Dramatic Coloratura Soprano. She also conducts vocal teaching on Saturdays.

    You wanna hear more, here it comes
    Since this is your first Nightwish experience and seems to me that you are really interested, I'll give you the short history of the band: " Nightwish was started in 1996. They are considered a female-fronted symphonic metal band. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. Marco Hietala is the Bassist and vocals (so we all had been shocked about his announcement some weeks ago to leave the band). And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012. The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her. There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps.
    I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me, Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hardcore. So be prepared.
    Do another review or just enjoy on your own.

    Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 checking in 👍
    I can see Gabriel has given you the basics, and that's pure gold as a brief introduction to the number one Symphonic Metal band in the world.
    By the way, there are quite a few sopranos in this category of metal, but maybe it is because that specific genre is the top of the top in composing, singing and musicians.
    We hope you will continue this journey into Symphonic Metal and especially Nightwish - I can promise you that you will be on a journey you didn't see coming - and it is addictive 😉 - and you have only scratched the surface of Nightwish's and Floor's capabilities...
    The Metal Mozart, are the composer Tuomas widely known as - and Floor - well she is by far this century greatest singer, no doubt about that - but again - this is Symphonic Metal, and only the absolute world class are here - so...
    A big welcome to the Nightwish Universe from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘

    ....Except that, with the Nightwish fanbase, those little old ladies in the town sitting on the porch sipping their tea would more likely be among the screaming fans in here whipping their old gray hair around in Dutch windmills! My wife and I went to their 2018 concert in Miami and, while standing in line, wound up having a lengthy, engaging conversation with a blue-haired teenage girl about the deeper meaning of the lyrics to Poet & The Pendulum and then spent the show up in the first three rows from the stage that was mostly filled with the other type of "blue-hairs," the senior citizen kind, older than me (and I'm 66!). There were also young "soccer mom" families who brought their little tykes! There was even a published newspaper article a year or two ago that mentioned two old men who went missing from a nursing home in Germany. When they were finally located, it was discovered that they had "escaped" from the senior-care facility to go sneak into a heavy metal festival. The festival wasn't named but it was very likely Wacken (Vokken). Nightwish's fans cross all age, gender, and cultural boundaries. Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!

    • @Jutubowiec1
      @Jutubowiec1 3 года назад +1

      Yes, it's beautiful that music and message connect, and not divide, generations. It is normal for Americans and English to pronounce some J (Y), W (V) sounds differently than most of Europe. I assume your ancestors' surname was spelled Tomaszewski?

    • @christomashofski9160
      @christomashofski9160 3 года назад

      @@Jutubowiec1 That's closer to the Polish spelling of a similar surname. Ours was of German origin and came from Austria-Hungary. One can find numerous different spellings for it on old Hungarian church records and censuses. Who knows what is right, or if there even is such a thing as "right" when it comes to names. It was changed to the current-day spelling by an ancestor in the early part of the 1900's and looks closer to a Polish spelling than the original German.

    Ok, Charis, I very much enjoyed this reaction, as, i think, you enjoyed the reacting part. Gabriel has already been here, so you know that this band goes back a long way. I really hope you do listen to more, because Nightwish is worth listening to. One of the 1st songs you should hear, imo, is "Nemo", because it gives you an idea of what made them great to begin with. Then, maybe, a little more current with "Bye, Bye, Beautiful", and maybe "The Islander", and "Master, Passion, Greed" or "the Phantom of the Opera". You can't really go wrong with Nightwish, so I'll be watching to see what you decide to listen to next. :)
