- Опубликовано: 5 дек 2021
- Finally Floor Jansen with her band Nightwish singing Ghost Love Score LIVE at Wacken...first time live music video reaction. So many of you wanted me to do her cover of Lara Fabian's song Adagio but I thought this would be a better introduction to the singer than a cover that I am very familiar with.

Hello That’s Not Acting Either [Brandon Scott] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me.
Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band, performing at Wacken Open Air in 2013, together with Floor Jansen, the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K+ audience.
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.
Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] 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. [The 1st Bassist of the band was Sami Vanska, he was with them until 2001. The 2nd one was Marco Hietala, as Bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently 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. Then very recently (May 2021) Jukka Koskinen became the 3nd Bassist of the band, for at least the Human :II: Nature tour] 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):

@Nightwish Arena: Since most of the reactors end up doing a lot of reactions from Wacken 2013 concert, they should be warned that there are a lot of slowed down and even high pitched versions of this concert, so it is better to use only official videos or this version of the whole concert: ruclips.net/video/cAwtzi7Q3Bk/видео.html
Last but not the least - they 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. That being said, I will add here the messages left the other days by some old fans of the band.
@Fabrizio Gorla: To be fair to the old fanbase, you may want to include also some of these songs.

Hoi @Grabriel Bardac I wish you happy holidays
Ah, Gabriel. Your arrival was prophesied by several of your contemporaries. I’m glad to see you safely made the journey. This is an intense bulk of information. I will take the time to digest it properly and please know that I will make every effort to do proud this noble Nightwish Army
@@tnae Thank you for your positive response. Please do not consider my message - intense, as you say - as a form of pressure to follow a specific path. Nightwish has composed and performed a real ocean of high level music for the last 25 years (compositional, instrumental, vocal) so in any direction you decide to continue this journey of discovery, I assure you that you will not regret it.
You have captured the essence in your final analysis, so I will subscribe. It is not the musical genre that is at the forefront, as you say, but the human essence, of complete dedication through art.
@@rhmdutchman1550 :) Thanks. Happy Holidays to you too!
"It's like an army!"
Yes... yes it is: the Nightwish Army.
And soon they'll march in
84,000 strong at that concert!
That's one thing You will find out. It's an army, in the best way
I don't listen to metal music either but Nightwish with Floor Jansen has become almost only music I listen to nowadays
"I don't listen to metal, but I listen to metal all the time."
Marko did some new stuff check it out 👍
@@onearthonelegion that's all n sync , Juha was perfectly coherent with that 🙂♥️😁
Symphonic Metal
Nightwish and Band-Maid for me.
I was at that concert. Wacken Open Air is the biggest Heavy Metal Festival in Europe (or even the World) and Nightwish were Headliner that evening. When she performed this song, she was already singing for more than 60 minutes and she did not miss one single note. Whenever I see/hear this, it gives me goosebumps. This is, what we fans call a "Floorgasm". You nailed the description completely, she is in the moment, she feels, what she is singing and commits to it entirely.
So jealous of you, having been there. An experience for a lifetime 🤘🤘🤘
She's not just singing that song. She IS the song.
That whole Concert was a night of magic.
You have hit the nail on the head when it comes to Floor...she LIVES to be on stage connected to an audience. Nevermind the technical ability, which she has in spades, the joy she projects when she's on stage is just awesome. This was in front of 82,000 plus...but she is the same way in front of 800, it doesn't matter. There are official DVDs of 4 Nightwish shows with Floor, along with hundreds of fan shot vids all over the 'tube, and you won't find a second in any of those vids where it doesn't look like she's having the time of her life, and giving the audience 110%.
What always strikes me about Floor is she's not there for the audience, she's there with the audience.
Fact
Because you coach performances, I wanted to suggest their performance of I want my tears back live in Buenos Aires to you. But after you stressed out twice that this genre is not your cup of tea I bet ya that you put that one on the stereo on your way to work!
And Floor is feeding on the energy of the crowd.
Cheers from Germany 😉
@@SandraMaschke I was thinking the exact same thing!
@@jessicakoster2543 great minds think alike 🤪
Floor has the empathic ability to draw the emotion out of the lyrics of a song, genuinely feel them, and express them back to an audience, so they feel them, as well. That’s a special gift that few have. She is truly a once-in-a-generation talent.
You really can hear it in songs like this one or Poet and the Pendulum! She's amazing
Whether one are into that genre or not, one have to respect the talent not only Floor (the lead singer) has but the whole band in their respective fields.
Nightwish army Belgium reporting in. Welcome to our world and our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen. She is the most powerful and versatile female voice on the planet. Our general Gabriël will show you the pathway into our world. Looking forward to more reacts
ANOTHER SOUL SNATCHED BY THE VALKYRIE GODDESS!!!
It's overwhelming. I wept like a baby when I watched this the first time. It's like some of us have a Nightwish-shaped hole in what we are searching for in music, that we're not aware of. Then they appear on our screen. It's amazing. ••• Thanks! PEACE!!!
She is classically trained soprano, vocal coach, but she doesn’t stick to genre either. She can do it all, from opera to growls from hell. But make no mistake, she is one part that makes up the whole band. They mesh so well, when they came together, it must have been like watching lightening strike
"She's a Queen!" Well, you can't be more right than that. Well done an greetings from Finland! ⛄👍
Not A Queen brother -THE QUEEN 👑👑👑👑👑👑 👑👑👑👑 👑👑

Nope Goddess!!
@@silverblack5475 To me Queen, Goddess or Valkyrie will do nicely, to others whatever they want, but preferably not "girl", "b***h" or anything like that. 😎👍
She takes your breath away, doesn't she
Agreed and one of the very few words that are only just adequate . . . Magnificent.
windows 98 memories, that comment.
I'm not a metalhead but I like Nightwish. It's a great symphonic metal band and Floor is a great singer. They definitely know how to deliver an amazing performance. You just went down another rabbit hole. There are many Nightwish fans out there and I think reacting to this band will get you lots of new subscribers. 🙂
Well thank you Michael. It’s always nice to see the Patreon family representing in the comments. You and Victor both of been here already and I expect to see others later. It means a lot to me, it really does, to see your support reaching beyond just the artists that brought you to my videos. Thank you.
@@tnae you just tipped the ocean with Floor Jansen and Nightwish - I envy you that you start an AMAZING JOURNEY!
Floor started to sing professionally with her first band as a backup singer at 16 but they quickly realized that she was their key to the top of the European charts so made her lead singer. That band was After Forever and it was a great band. When they disbanded a decade or so years later. Floor decided it was time for her own band. She started ReVamp which lasted basically until 2016, three years after joining Nightwish permanently. ReVamp had enough music for one more album and after that and a brief stage tour, she disbanded them and is now putting most of her time with Nightwish. She does now have a solo career also. Later, check out her performances on a Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers (Best Singers). All her performances on that show were outstanding. Floor was the best fit for Nightwish which had 2 lead singers before her.
Impossible not to get emotional when hearing her sing. Finally getting a chance to see them live in May potential lock down permitting. Welcome to the Army.
May 2022, NYC!!! Will be there!
Let's hope that the lockdown won't happen for you to see them, it is an experience that you should just listen and watch.
May 6, 2022 Montreal, I will be there!! Assuming government Covid restrictions do not come back.
May 20th LA!
May in Toronto. I’ll be there.
A true performance coach knows when he sees something special. :) I work in a theater, too, btw, and Nightwish is exactly my blood type. :)
Always a pleasure to me to follow thespian! Thanks for checking out the video, commenting and all that. I really appreciate it.
This was one of the best reactions to this song I've ever seen...and I've seen almost all of them. Great job, Brandon!
So true 👏🏼 please do more of her and them 🙏🏼
I agree
Hell yea! I share your perspective on how I go about my reactions.
Really? With a cut in the middle? All right...
it touched my soul as it touched yours . .
Most people think music is made to be heard.
It's not made to be heard, it's made to be felt.
Hi Brandon. Thank you for reacting to this song, as I asked you to do. Your reaction was wonderful to watch. I knew you'd appreciate this. The band is Finnish, but Floor is Dutch. There is also an English multi-instrumentalist in the band, but he wasn't on stage for this performance. Like I said in my recommendation, Nightwish songs are very diverse. Yes, they have the really heavy songs, but there are also beautiful ballads or celtic sounding songs. So I'd love to watch you explore more of their discography as well as Floor's voice and presence. If you're looking for song suggestions, have a look at Gabriel Bardac's comment (he will be here soon). There are a lot of suggestions on his list, they all come with some keywords as to what to expect. Thanks again for taking a look at Nightwish, see you again soon (?) Greetings from the Netherlands.
I remember, yes. And thank you so much for suggesting it and for being patient with me I know it took me a lot longer to get to this than you would’ve liked. I promise I’m doing my best for all of you guys out there. I really appreciate your passion for that your favorite artists your commitment to their music your commitment to spreading their music and artistry throughout the community here on RUclips. I hope to be a positive addition to any Fanbase that I Dip into and so far I have gotten a very gracious reception from the Nightwish fan base. So to you and to all of them, thank you so much. And there will be more to come.
@@tnae I'm looking forward to future Nightwish reactions from you. Take care!
Martine!! Keep up the great work!
Joo Perkele !
@@paulr1193 Thanks Paul
Welcome to symphonic metal, its foremost practitioners Nightwish, and the Valkyrie Queen Herself. Floor is a Nederlander and a classically trained soprano (the band is Finnish) who is NW's third and current singer-- she came on board in 2012. In addition to the classical voice training, she has had some formal opera and rock education as well. She is also a voice coach, horsewoman (rides dressage), and lives on a small farm in Sweden with her husband Hannes Van Dahl (drummer for Sabaton), daughter Freja, horses, barn cats, and Fenris, the world's largest dog.
AND I agree with you re Lara-- I've been a Lara Fabian fan for well over 20 years!
"Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" - Buenos Aires 2018. Very performance-oriented song, with a story.
💕💕💕
"Dead Boy's Poem" - Buenos Aries 2018.
The way you described it at the end, about pure passion in singing, connecting to something deeper, feeling the music even more than just hearing it: Floor was made for you..
Whatever she sings, she always manages to find a straight line into my heart. That’s why my pet name for her is the Soul Piercer..
I love that pet name...it perfectly sums her up.
I’ve watched 100’s of Nightwish reactions, and I’ve seen so many people describe what Floor does… but you, you just perfectly described what SHE IS
What's also smtg. At the end he said "she's giving everything she has inside".. and what did Floor herself say sbout the ending: "There, I give everything I have.."

I’ve watched this song and reactions to this song hundreds of times and it always gets me teary eyed. The shear beauty and emotional power never fails to assault my limbic system! Im otherwise a very stoic man but Nightwish gets me every damned time!! Just a testament to their majesty as a band.
You have scratched just a tip of an ice mountain. Welcome to the Nightwish world (rabbit hole), you never get out haha. Every song is your favourite one. I got stuck this rabbit hole 1996 and never got out. Don't want to get out 🤘
You owe it to yourself to look in to Nightwish a bit further. Yes, their music is flawless, Floor is from another world…. But the content of most of their art is something you might really enjoy. Cheers from NWA Central California Coast division.
You said it my friend. Floor Jansen (Yahn-sun) is the Dutch Valkyrie QUEEN of symphonic metal. You said it again! It is like an army. The Nightwish army. Then from the opera style coordinated onsets through to the end of the song, your face started to change. Your eyebrows started to express your though process of trying to comprehend this epic and powerfully emotional song. Then your eyes began to show your emotional physical reaction to the amazing and breathtaking vocalizations to end of this composition. Loved it.
I think you would love Floor's solo stuff and all of the covers she recorded in her home studio during the pandemic. She did them for all of her fans to give them some love and emotional support while waiting for Nightwish to start their tour. Check out her channel for all of her covers, including Adagio. You may still prefer Lara's version, but Floor does it more than justice. She usually adds a rock element to the musical arrangement. However, her voice is amazing and so powerful Floor is a high sensitive personality and she is able to give so much of herself to every performance.

Also check out her amazing performances from the Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers". She pays tribute to other Dutch singers on the show by singing songs for them. Everything from Operatic aria to pop songs, and even one that sounds slightly country style. She also sings in English, German, Spanish, and Dutch. It is not a competition. Just 7 Dutch singer honoring each other with emotional musical performances. Great show. See my links for a starter.
ruclips.net/video/AGegCLlqlEM/видео.html - Vilja Lied (Vilja's Song - an aria from the operetta "The Merry Widow".
Performed by Floor Jansen to honor Henk Poort (Dutch Opera singer). This was the very first performance for the 1st episode of 2019. The other singers did not know Floor and are quite surprised by her ability. They expected some metal rock screamer. This version is provided with a couple minutes of subtitled discussion before the performance. It will help you to understand the concept of the wonderful show.
Hope to see you again very soon That's Not Acting Either!
I’ll be honest - 12 months ago, as a self proclaimed extreme fan of heavy metal, I had always heard of nightwish, but never gave them a chance because I always just shrugged them off as another one of those 80’s sounding hair metal bands with a high pitched lead singer (no disrespect to 80’s hair metal bands - just not my thing) - however, as a fan of black metal and music from the region, I was convinced to give them a try, and this song single-handily served as a gateway to me opening my mind and soul to this world - they aren’t anything like hair metal bands (but I even do listen to some hair metal bands now anyways because they taught me how to appreciate everything). I’ve watched countless reaction vids wanting to learn everything I can from others - trying to understand what they see so I can help define my own feelings. At the end, the conclusion is simple: music is beautiful, no matter the genre, because music is art, snd good art reasonates with the human souI.
As a subject matter expert in the world of people who have watched reaction vids to this specific song at this specific concert (lol), I must truly admit that you are the most genuine, understanding reaction artist I have seen. Thank you for your review and I look forward to seeing more.
Ps, I’m pretty sure this is the first RUclips comment I’ve ever posted or at the very least, the absolute longest hahaha. Good Job dude!! 🤘🤘
Dude I wish I could give you more than 1 like for your truly genuine description of your experience listening to Floor for the first time. I truly believe that magic was afoot that night at that concert wether intentionally or not. This all stemming from the structure of the songwriting, the flawlessness & tightness that the band displayed to Floors vocal performance & commanding stage presence & to the Production crew recording the concert & putting the final product out there. Simply magical. Great job! So much more for you to enjoy.
The Band are from Finland, Though Floor is from the Netherlands. you should listen/watch the whole of this concert she sang this song after about 1hr 30min of being on stage. if you would like to hear Floor Jensen Solo, I would recommend to you the show Beste Zengers Have a listen to Phantom of the Opera with floor and Henk Poort Who was the Dutch Phantom on stage and Also her cover of Shallow on the same show. Enjoy the Journey.
Thats how WE ALL feel about Floor Jansen .
Floor Jansen, the only woman on earth who can make me cry in 2 minutes, just by using her unbelievable singing voice...
Storytime in particular does it for me 😍❤🤔😭
Great reaction!! I enjoyed every second of it. And yes, Floor has a way of turning me into a blubbering mess on a regular basis..lol The amount of tears that have welled up in my eyes watching this amazing band perform is quite honestly unbelievable. So grateful for them.
Saw your story a few times somewhere here. Just ♥️
The problem is I often watch these reactions (as this one) on my daily train commute and it hits me every darn time. There are people glancing at me right now as if I just received some bad news!
I only got introduced to Nightwish and Floor two months ago and WOW !!!! it’s just been the most amazing trip of a lifetime
Floor is definitely special. I'm a 53 year old man from the US and Ive never heard anything like her !!!!!
I agree with you about Floor and I am 74!!!! I am in the US also.
Thank you for your respect of all musicians and styles of music. This is my first video of yours and I appreciate your honesty.
Yep, our Valkyrie Queen's stage presence is amazing. She looks like a goddess who has come to bless her followers in Nightwish Army.
It doesn't matter how many times I see this performance, it gives me chills every time. One of the best performances I have ever seen (via video, I wish I could have experienced that in person!).
Great reaction.
Floor Jansen is a vocal athlete with incredible range, versatility, vocal stamina, and stage presence. She is a spinto soprano with a range of almost four octaves (D3-G#5-F6). When listening to her sing, it is apparent that she has spent the better part of her life fine-tuning her instrument with help from several vocal coaches. Floor can sing in multiple languages and genres and is a Master vocal coach. It is incredible how she is able to take any song from any genre and make it her own. This woman is a true gift to her craft and an incredible addition to a band that has always been great until 2013 when they officially hired the undisputed Queen of Metal, Floor Jansen, making Nightwish the greatest band on the planet. Welcome to the Nightwish rabbit hole. Nightwish Army U.S.A. 🤘🏽 ( Urban Operators ) in the house.
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!!! YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome back
If you want more stage acting in absolute immersing into lyrics check:
Nightwish - Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean - Live In Buenos Aires (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO)
In the song, Floor has dialogue with Marco (the basist).
That's one of their best "theater" sings, along with Slaying the Dreamer.
Floor is a goddess, you cannot sway me on this. Welcome to the Nightwish Army, we’re a fun bunch (so I’d like to think). They have a really diverse sound, and while all 3 of their singers are impressive, Floor’s the one that leaves me… well, floored… every single time.
Of course we're a fun bunch! And yes, Floor is our Valkyrie Goddess Queen. I haven't been through all the comments here yet, but there's probably one in here that says something about her having been sent by Odin to bring souls to Valhalla, only she got sidetracked and joined some rock bands. Now she's still collecting souls, through the power of her voice alone.
Just found out that nightwish concerts in England have been rescheduled again until November 2022 I will have been waiting 3 years to see this outstanding band so it was great to stumble upon your reaction you hit on what every nw army battalion worldwide knows that when you hear them from the first note of any song your in the rabbit hole and never want to leave . Your reaction and facial expressions shows you have had a megga floorgasm enjoy all they have to offer and more bazza Nuneaton England
When you said "it's like an army", i laughed so hard and thought to myself, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.🤘
Thank you for your reaction!👍.... becauce you mentioned Lara❤️ I love very much her voice and peformances... Greetings from Finland (by Nightwish fan since 1998)
THIS. This is one of the most incredible things I’ve heard in my life. I can’t even describe it.
Yes, it was incredable. i was one of the 82thousand in Wacken/ Germany. and at the last Part of Ghost Love Score i become my first Floorgasm^^. It was so a perfect moment from the fans and Floor , really special. It was the best Concert in my life. Everything was right from Band and Fans, and this felt Floor in this song..
Nightwish Iowa here. I already posted once, just because I was so eager. I know Gabriel has already explained how we all came to you, and I am glad you were referred to Nightwish, and hopefully, you are glad you started with this song first.
When you put your hand on your mouth, I was already crying. I cry every time. It's just such as beautiful piece. I'm glad to have found you.
Usually, I don't talk this much in my welcome, but here I am, talking away. You said Queen, and I was like YEAHHHH, she is. I know others will share that she is our Valkyrie Queen, and she is.
Now that you've hit the Nightwish journey, and begin to explore all that Nightwish has to offer, and yes, Floor is just part of the journey, you'll be just as enrapt as the rest of us.
Man, it's like you've jumped into our minds and we all became one.
Follow Gabriel's suggested path, you won't be led astray. You have my word. Please hurry, I want to watch more of your reactions!
One more thing. I don't know if Gabriel suggested Poet and the Pendulum. Watch some of his suggestions first, then research Poet and the Pendulum, learn the story, and then watch it. Again, I know you will not regret it.
Welcome to Nightwish!
Nightwish army here, thank u for ur review! We shall be back!
You have to mention from which division you are, otherwise everybody gets confused!
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! Gabriel Bardac entered !
Floor her name is derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring, Flora.
Floor Jansen is called the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy. Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 4 octaves (Eb2 to F6)
She can sing from classical to belting and raspy vocals like screaming and death growls. And she's also a voice coach and teacher to boot.
Floor Jansen was the singer of the Dutch metal band After Forever from 1997 to early 2009. From 1999 she studied at the Rockacademie in Tilburg with classmates Jacqueline Govaert and Danny Vera, where she graduated in 2003. In addition to her activities at After Forever, she gave singing lessons. She plays guitar, piano and flute. On May 5, 2010, she presented her new band ReVamp, which was disbanded in September 2016.
From 1 October 2012 Jansen replaced Anette Olzon as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour. On October 9, 2013, it was announced that she would be the group's regular new front singer. In 2015, Nightwish released the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful with Jansen as lead singer. Nightwish's second studio album with Jansen as front singer, Human. :II: Nature., was released in April 2020.
This was recorded at the 2013 Wacken ( pronounced Vahken) Open Air festival in Germany in front of an audience of 82,000 people. The fiery bull head is the symbol of the festival.
We hope, that there is more coming.
🤘😎🤘.
All of us on here, seeing you all choked up towards the end: *yeah, I know!* 🥺🥰
Nightwish Army Texas reporting for duty. Great reaction! Our Valkyrien queen is from the Netherlands. She does stand tall, about 6’1”. I’m convinced she can sing anything and make it sound just how she wants. She puts emotion into all her performances. And this was song 13 of 15 - All FIRE! Goosebumps and teary eyes are not uncommon. She can get much heavier, and will move about more, depending on the song. They have a pretty good spectrum of songs, and she individually goes even broader. Marko, the bassist also sings, backup and harmonies and even lead.
Brandon, on her own channel, Floor talks about this song. She recognized, how many reactors did ths song. So She thought, not is better to talk about what she and the band did there. My respect for this Frouwe Jansen, grew enormous. Man stay safe and sound, Merry Christmas. Es ist nur fair in English zu schreiben, wenn die Meisten kein Deutsch lesen können. LOL.
This is Symphonic Metal. It is basically a mix of opera and metal. And its bloody marvellous. The band Nightwish is from my native Finland and Floor is from the Netherlands. The Nightwish army will head on over to your comment section, if they have not arrived yet. And I for one can recommend going for a few more songs from Nightwish or go see what what Floor has been putting out during the last few years. There is a whole lot of material from this Valkyrian Goddess.
Nightwish Army Germany reports for Duty:
What you should do:
Listen to Gabriel.
He knows.
Great Reaction - I think you exactly described what she is all about - She is taking you on a journey everytime....when she starts to sing she starts to weave magic !!
I think our Queen captured another soul….:-)
Floor Jansen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Valkyries, Lady of Nightwish and Protector of our Metal Realm. Long may she reign. Bow, mortal !
That my friend was a wonderful reaction. Love watching people captivated by this lady. Probably the best reaction that I have seen,and like a comment below I've seen quite a few.
Nightwish is from Finland. Singer Floor Jansen is Dutch.
I like watching the people in the audience. Everyone's so happy. The one woman who looks like she's having a religious experience stands out the most to me.
Finally someone in a reaction said it: " it's like an army" that center part of the song is literally operates on the same way as old war drums and fanfares and it pretty much have the same effect on the crowd :)
Great reaction, welcome down the rabbit hole that is Nightwish! Also I found it quite interesting that you referred to the audience as an army, because we have been dubbed the Nightwish Army, haha.
thanks for your open minded and honest opinion about Floor..Nightwish Army's here at your gates.. open up and enter the rabbithole. you react, we follow, that's what we do as a big family supporting our Queen Valkerie. greets from the netherlands( Nightwish ArmyNL). we follow you.
Right on brother. Floor and the Nightwish band kill it. Every hand move and flip of her hair has an amazing effect, not to mention the singing with 75,000 fans singing along.
Floor Jansen!! The Greatest Singer On Earth!!!!
Welcome to the Nightwish Army! Floor is a highly sensitive empath, as such she has the ability to emote through her flawless voice and move one to tears of joy, and bring a depth to her storytelling that few mortals can reproduce. In short, she is a Raven Haired Valkyrie that can stir the soul. Her voice is my therapy. The Wacken 2013 video is up there with the best 98 minutes of live music ever produced.
An army indeed. The Nightwish Army! Reporting in from Australia. You have met our Valkyrie Queen. The entire band are just incredible. There is much much more you should see from them. You won't be disappointed.
oh ya! we are an army! Nightwish Army Romania on duty....and indeed Floor is a Queen! our Queen !
Nightwish Army here. your reaction shower up on my radar. I look forward to following you as you continue to discover this awsome band.
Literally nothing compares to Floor. She is unbelievable to listen to. I can only imagine it being euphoric to listen to her sing live.
I’m glad to see someone actually express the emotions I feel when I listen to Nightwish
Like you... metal isn’t typically “my thing”... this isn’t something I’d listen to while driving to work in the morning.. or on a long road trip, it’s just not my style, HOWEVER, that being said... watching this performance makes me want to go see them in concert so badly!!! What an amazing performance! Holy crap it’s powerful!
You know me... I’m all about Lara... but I’m definitely looking forward to falling down the Nightwish rabbit hole with you! Lol
"it's like an Army" .... yah think? Welcome to the best rabbit hole on the internet Brandon. Nightwish Army Berlin Division checking in.
"She's a queen"
Yep, she's our Valkyrie Queen
Sydney base camp of the Aussie chapter of the Nightwish army. I have seen Nightwish 4 times and the band has always left me wanting more!
I've watched Nightwish make even the most rugged guys cry. Nightwish's music really evokes emotion. I love it!
Very interesting reaction, you can tell metal is not your choice, but we all can see your reaction. Spoiler alert: you love metal, only you don't know yet :P
About Adagio, very good to have experienced Floor in her daily job, but now you know you can react to that without problem, you'll not be disappointed.
Of course Floor version is not in a show, it's a cover done in her home studio, so on a performance point of view it's not comparable to a Lara concert, but it's EXTREMELY good, no need to compare.
O, dude, you just have no idea!!! Loved your reaction to this!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Symphonic Metal!
Nightwish Army USA (Pa) division reporting for duty .I must say to you WELL DONE SIR . Welcome to the Gods of Symphonic Metal. General Gabriel Bardac left you band info & links to follow. Enjoy the ride of a life time . yes "Adagio" cover from Floor is the best ever
I come here often, for example for your reacts to Lara Fabian and I'm so glad you're reacting to this fabulous band then ! Merci beaucoup !
Floor Jansen showcased a less rocky side of here in the dutch tv show 'beste zangers'. A show in which several dutch artist sing songs to each other covers of their music or song with a meaning to that specific artist. If you look up 'beste zangers 2019' you'll find al here performances. Amongst others, Vilya lied, shallow, phantom of the opera (duet with Henk poort, dutch phantom back in the day)
Hello Brandon! Welcome to the great band that Nightwish is. I could see that Floor's singing touched you and you hit the nail on the head. Floor sings with her heart. She is an empath and has the ability to put that in her performance. She tells stories with her voice. Although it is not your favorite genre of music I would like to ask you to react more to NW. They have such a variety of songs, as Martine mentioned in her comment, and some of them moved a lot of us to real tears and not being ashamed of it. In the meantime, take care, stay safe and greetings from the Netherlands!
If Floor is there, we are there. 🤟🏻😎
Thank you for your reaction.
I enjoyed that...It's so easy to be swept away by the music and her singing that I sometimes wish for more commentary on her as a stage performer, though there are certainly many who mention her presence. Right before the guitar solo, when she turns to leave, she doesn't just turn around and walk off, she turns sharply, almost like a soldier would about face, then pauses during the first step, like she knows she has to leave but doesn't want to, then strides with purpose almost in time with the song. That's a stage exit. She has great economy of style, as you noted with her still position in the beginning, so that even a simple movement of a hand commands attention. So, when she does something like raising the arm during the "Hey" section, or headbanging at the end, it looks huge...
Awesome reaction!! I love watching reactors having their first experience of this wonderful band.
Floor is not like a queen, she is The queen of the Nightwish army. This concert was most people's first experience of Floor. She still wasn't a full member of the band. By the time Ghost Love Score was performed she had captured the hearts, if not souls of the audience.
You can also see Floor perform on Beste Zangers 2019 which is a Dutch tv show. The amazing thing is no one from her home country knew anything about her until she appeared on the show. Also check out her covers on her RUclips channel. Welcome to the NW Army.
You nailed it ,of Floor and the guys. They are real Edema Ruh . But Floors Nickname is VALKYRIE QUEEN .🤘😊
Notice during the end note, audience kinda freezes.. holds its breath... and when she is done ppl continue .. it must been that kind of moment where one forgets to breathe .. wish i had been there.
Congratulations, sir...you have been Floor-ed!!!
NW Army UK - Welcome to Nightwish and Floor Jansen. Thanks for the highly enjoyable reaction and such an accurate sensory analysis of Floor and the Band. I'm subbed for more. Have a great evening.
With Nightwish no copyright issues. Very moderat Band and Label.
Nightwish is the gateway drug to Metal music. I speak from experience, 3 years ago I discovered them from a reaction video and I haven't stopped since. I have now branched off to enjoy other Metal music too which I never would have appreciated previously. Now Metal is about 80% of what I listen to. It's strange the pathways life can take us on.
Nightwish has changed my life immensely for the better. No exaggeration. They are truly an amazing band. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't continue exploring what they have to offer.
Don't forget about the lyrics, they demand your attention too. So creative and beautiful and poetic.
Hello! Thank you for the video!Please pay attention to the young singer Diana Ankudinova.Make reactions to the songs of CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE, Personal Jesus, Crow🌞🌞🌞DIANA ANKUDINOVA is a talented young singer. I would like to know your opinion. I think you will be surprised. Diana has a very unusual voice and artistic presentation for her age.🌹🌹🌹 Thanks in advance
Diana Ankudinova 😊👍👍🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥🎉🎉🎉💫💫💫💯
я бы посмотрел реакции на Диану Анкудинову!!!
Diana Ankudinova is an amazing singer,her voice fascinates!
Diana is the best thing I've ever heard in my life 😍 One of the most unique voices on our planet🤯
If you follow the "road map" Gabriel gave you you'll have a safe and pleasant journey, it's been tried and tested.
When this was recorded Floor had been the replacement singer of Nightwish för just about 10 months. She did her first show in Seattle Wa on Oct 1st 2012 after the band fired Anette, their second singer. This was recorded Aug.3rd 2013.
This song wasn't on the set list for the tour originally since Anette didn't have the vocal ability to perform it. But Floor had heard the song when her first band After Forever" toured with Nightwish when Tarja, their first singer, was still in the band, and she loved it. So Floor asked Tuomas (the guy behind the keyboards) if they could make it a part of the set list. And they did, it was song number 13 of a 15 song set. There's som minor variations in the backing between Floors and Tarjas version, mainly that the choir have been reduced in volume. There's a video on youtube from, I think, Argentina, recorded Dec15th 2012. And there's one of Tarja doing it too. If you want to know more about how Floor got in to the band I can recommend a documentary, also here on RUclips called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours"
I really like your comments to this great Nightwish. Really from the bottom of your deep heart. I appreciate that.
One of the best reactions to this song I have seen. True to the heart and very much appreciated.
Nightwish Army UK popping in for a cuppa and a great reaction, nice job :)
The whole concert is magical! ^^
Welcome to the rabbit hole of Floor Jansen and Nightwish, you will love every moment of it.
You have a treat ahead of you - we all had no idea of the band's capabilities to begin with and then blam your musical world changes. Check out the live versions of Dead Boy's Poem, Sahara, Sleeping Sun and 7 Days to the Wolves before watching their masterpieces: The Poet & the Pendulum and The greatest Show on Earth.
Yes, I agree!
Floor is not just a singer, she is a storyteller.
