The important question is: Did you like the music and the singing? Surely it's easier to listen when you know the hole story of this rock opera. And yes this was Floor. And her sister is the background singer at the very back.
I am 64 years old and the music I absorbed was Pink Floyd, Genesis, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Rush, Led Zeppelin, Supertramp and many other groups like that. I guess that is why I like groups like Nightwish and Ayreon. Also being a sci-fi and fantasy fan helps as well.
OK - well this was one of the “ just for the fuck of it” videos. But I guess a fail was coming! This is the one song of Ayreon that people usually watch, if nothing else. That was Floor, her sister Irene was the left hand singer in the trio of backup singers. The story is laid out through the album - this is the last song so no way you can know the characters roles - they are introduced in a 14 minute video that you will not enjoy! And Floor did want to be a biologist as a kid - part of why she fit in well with Nightwish, and part of why their latest albums have taken on more scientific themes. I did give you a few Devon Townsend links but maybe not your thing, in hindsight. Nothing like this but he does do a wide range of vocal styles so maybe not what you want to hear. I’ll re-evaluate after suggesting more songs.
Arjen has discovered her so to speak and Floor will be eternally grateful to him for it. She always agrees when he asks her and she has time. If she is not there, she has no time.
Hey Rob thus version of this song is not good for a first time listener. The dude did you a disservice recommending this one. Yes it's a concept with a lot going on but had you seen the video of this it is being narrated by Arjen himself in close caption giving you the story and letting you know who is who and what part they play. Imo that video version is way better. FYI rock on Rob 🤘
You say poor attitude, i say honest and direct...I care about the music, nothing else, that is why I react to MUSIC, and I stand by my words. Check this out.. when commenters do not like me... "I just don't care" 😜
This why we watch him - because he doesn't sugar anything for "likes". I recommended this song but it wasn't his thing. But I'm glad he didn't bullshit me!! Apparently you took a wrong turn somewhere and missed the reactors who want you to "buy them a coffee" to get them to like your reaction! On your way......
There are so many talented people in the world. Production numbers and shows are great for voices and musicianship. If the story catches on, then the show may travel or spend many years in New York or Las Vegas. But, the parts are interchangeable and it's the show that is important. Bands are a bit different, with some exceptions like Steely Dan. The personality of the band is important and, even if the band goes on, the personality changes when the parts change. If a band stays together, start to end, like KISS, then it's easier to get involved with the people and the personality. That's part of the fun.
I got a weird feeling and after about a minute or two of mayhem I fast forwarded so I could get some kind of reaction from you. This is definitely not my cup of tea. Don´t want to hear it again.
The mechanical arms with the lights are Betty and Wilma! Yes that is Floor and her sister Irene is part of Arjen’s Angels singing backup.🤘🎸
I got as far as “threw up in my mouth a little bit” and can’t stop laughing…….😂
😂

It was a good tune
Funny that you doubt the manhood of Tommy Karevic with the slicked back hair, as he is married to Kobra Paige, look her up. 😉
This guy must think a manly man is an overweight dude sitting at a computer in a dark room who finds anything with a narrative "too confusing."

That is a list of some big time talent my friend

It was fun, I wouldn't say a fail, just nothing I would crank up in the car.
@@victorycast Well, my wife hates it so I can’t crank it up anywhere!

Floor Jansen was listed as a member of Ayreon in 2018. I don't know if she still is.
It’s a lot looser than that. Sometimes you’re available, sometimes you are not. I believe she has been involved since she was a teen.
Arjen has discovered her so to speak and Floor will be eternally grateful to him for it. She always agrees when he asks her and she has time. If she is not there, she has no time.
I think you should look into the story or just stay away from this kind of music. :D

Just like you said, “I just don’t care”. A very poor attitude for a new reactor.

@@northof4924 Thank you brother, you get it.
@@victorycast There's a million other reactors who will give them the reaction they want....
VictoryCast ...Reaction ...get a life.. pfff ... child's play
Wow... good one
Interesting name….wonder if they have a brotherhood too
Not floating boats here
Haunt
Checkem out
No manhood questioning there
Arjen Lucassen is Dutch and if you know any history, and geography, you’d realize how wrong your comment is.
@@northof4912 take a F(h)ucking JOKE
@@northof4912 snowflake ❄️
Where's the joke?
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 besides you?
By the way Floor Jansen isn't a chick she is a woman, a mother and a rock goddess and in my humble opinion the best rock vocalist on the planet today.
Maybe first get sum background about Ayreon and then watch a life song. Greetings.

Everyone dies! That's what Sam Puckett said when her motorcycle was stolen.
Visually this reminds of Dr John on Don Kirschner's Rock Concert.

I enjoyed your victorycast opening much more than this video of whatever that is.😮
Thank you
