NIGHTWISH - Ghost Love Score REACTION First Time. (Feelings)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Here we go with a first-time listen of Nightwish's Ghost Love Score. This song ripped me apart. Nightwish is insane everything about them is unreal. In the first part even before the Valkyrie jumped out I already got emotional then Floor Jansen decided to rip my heart out during Ghost Love Score.
The band is angelic in this song, and the voice, oh the voice. We all experience emotions, and we have all loved, hopefully, unless people are sociopaths. I absolutely will be doing a deep dive on all of Wacken 2013 with Nightwish. I can't help myself. This is my new favorite band, and for me to listen to more of their music I have to react to it, so I can give you all my first impressions.
So right now I will be listening to the 3 Nightwish songs I've reacted to on repeat. Please consider following me on my journey, drop suggestions in the comments, and sub if you'd like!

It is not unmanly to shed tears in the face of raw divinity. And Floor, being a Valkyrie Goddess, counts.
She is divine 100%
Shoemaker always gets me misty :)
Yes, those sudden moisture accumulations are not so uncommon... wait until you hear something like Dead boy's poem or Poet and the Pendullum...
tears don't have gender, what are you taking about

She rips your heart out, heals it and puts it back even better. 😊
I’m starting to see that lol
I was allways dreaming to see this done in an animation... a sorceress, riping man's heart out of his body, but then touching it so softly and putting it back, healed...
beautiful comment!!!
That Valkyrie goddess still gives me shivers 10 years later. 😍
Little story about how they started working with Pip Williams when they made the Once album. Ghost Love Score can be found on the album. Here's a clip from their book and timeline is year 2003-04:
----------------------
From the very start, Tuomas had a strong feeling that Once had to have an orchestra, come what ever may. After finishing the recording of backing tracks, the process continued in London with the legendary producer Pip Williams at the helm. Known for his work for the likes Status Quo and Uriah Heep, Williams was responsible for the orchestrations on the album.
When the Nightwish guys heard what orchestra they would be working with, their jaws hit the floor. "As Ewo and I traveled to London at the end of November to meet Pip Williams, we had no clue about the orchestra he'd gotten for us", Tuomas says. "The only thing we knew was that Williams himself would do the arrangements and that through his connections, he would hook us up with an orchestra and a choir. The first time we visited Phoenix Sound Studio, Rick Wakeman (the keyboard player of the legendary progressive rock band Yes) opened the door for us. That's when we realized we're onto something big. As we were having coffee in the studio, Pip dropped the bomb: the orchestra in question had played on The Lord of the Rings, as well as on many other Hollywood soundtracks - all recorded in this studio!"
It seems that Pip Williams wanted only the best for a band he held in great respect. "I have followed the band for some time, and it's been interesting to see how they have developed. Of course Rock bands like Deep Purple have previously used orchestras, but I really feel that Nightwish have combined the best of both worlds most successfully. They are a classic Metal band with strong classical and movie-score influences in their music."
"It was important for me that it would not be just about over-dubbing a few orchestral parts on top of a Rock band", Williams continues. "Tuomas' compositions were brilliant also in the sense that choir and orchestra could be added naturally, so that they don't sound pretentious or contrived. This is of utmost importance. The songs must be structured so as to allow the orchestra enough space. In the end, the results were quite emotive. Also, let us not forget just how good all the musicians in Nightwish are. They are perfectly sympathetic to Tuomas' vision. And Tarja's (1st lead singer) wonderful voice has done the songs great justice."
Williams knew his orchestra well. "I have worked with most of the players on different sessions for many years. Gavin Wright is a sensitive and authoritative orchestra leader, and together with Isobel Griffiths, the orchestral contractor, we were able to secure just the right musicians for each song. Anthony Pleeth, who has the lead cellist and played solo cello on 'Kuolema tekee taiteilijan', is one such example. These guys have done many, many big movie scores, as have the wonderful Metro Voices choir, and I thought this project required the kind of grandiose performance one would find on movie soundtracks by, say, Howard Shore."
Tuomas could not have been more excited about the situation. "Using the orchestra was an earthshaking experience. I only had to lie on the studio couch for two days, listening to these amazingly talented people. During the first takes, someone said into the mike, 'Are these guys really serious?'. When we began 'Ghost Love Score', a positive kind of bewilderment took over the orchestra. That, as well as 'Dark Chest of Wonders', were the first ones we recorded."
Williams was equally happy with his orchestra. "These musicians are such brilliant sight readers that it wasn't necessary to do more than a couple of rehearsals. Then we'd have a take or two of each song. It all went very smoothly. After the takes, I would check that Tuomas was happy, and then we would move on. If there was anything he wanted changed, it would be dealt with in a very short time. I must say, however, that we had prepared very well - I had been constantly on the phone with Tuomas when I was writing the arrangements. Yes, I ended up making a huge phone bill! But the groundwork paid off, as only a few small alterations were necessary."
Tuomas and Pip Williams immediately hit it off on a personal level. "Tuomas is sensitive, caring, very observant - he's what the English call a musical sponge", Williams commends. "It means he is always willing to try new ideas and absorbs the musical influences around him like a sponge. Tuomas always wants to learn more about music, its origins and sound. He has very firm ideas of what he is trying to achieve, but he also leaves space for those working with him to express themselves. He is humble, appreciative and approachable, one of the most talented musicians or composers I have ever worked with. I really think he would make an original and effective movie score composer, and I definetely want to collaborate with Tuomas again in the future - in fact, we're already talking about the next venture. I would also love to collaborate with him on a movie score at some point."
"Many times the players would come into the control room afterwards to listen to the takes, and according to Pip, that's something that doesn't happen very often," Tuomas says. "They're usually not that interested - they just do their job and leave, but now they actually listened to the songs. At the end of the last day, as I went down to thank the orchestra, they started applauding, standing up from their seats. It was one of those great moments in life."
According to Williams, a Pop or Rock artist rarely receives a standing ovation. "The musicians respected the quality of the songs and the challenge of playing such intricate and well structured music. You must remember that these guys also do simple pop sessions, songs that are very easy to play. With Nightwish, they were able to play stuff that was often as demanding as many of the classical pieces they had trained on. This was so much more than just simple 3-chord songs in 4/4 time. And let's not forget that they also had great respect for people that were prepared to take such a huge musical and financial risk, all for the sake of art! Remember, these were very expensive sessions. I'm very satisfied with my own reward for the arrangements, too."
"There is alwas a degree of compromise when mixing a Metal band with a large orchestra, as it's such a huge sound, but all in all, I'm really pleased with the end result", Pip reflects. "The main thing is that we have established a great identity with Nightwish and the orchestra, and our cooperation could be even better in the future. Seriously, Once is one of the most enjoyable projects in my career, and I've done this for 35 years!"
Wow, I can't believe how much information you have on this band, I don't even think I can touch the surface in terms of the lyrical meaning behind this. Thanks so much for that information, its wild!!!
@Waltte man 🤘😁👍 Great text 🍻🇫🇮
Valtte ❤
Wow, I loved reading this info. Greetings from NW army lonesome Pacific division on Maui. 😎🤘
@@marikasande 😘😄
Quality and variety of their songs will not dip for about 40-50 songs. That is one of the reasons why their reactions are so watched: we can listen to the same song dozens of times, without getting bored.
That just shows how powerful this band is. Sheeeesh
@@TheMindofBruce it took a lot to dethrone Metallica and Rammstein for me, but it happened. I like several other bands, but only 1 is... well nr. 1.
Listend to and saw for about 5 years now. Nope stil not bored 😂
@@anaguq4651 and number 10 is coming soon
Every day I need a dose of Floor´s voice and Nigthwish music to escape from the bad news of the world for a while. Her voice and presence truly is medicine.
Yep. I get that. That's why I watch these reactions.
And that was song # 13 in a 15 song set here at Wacken. It's basically about an unrequited love. From the 2004 album, Once, the 5th and final with Tarja.
Besides the Metro Voices choir I mentioned in the chat, they also record with the Young Musicians Choir of London and the London Philharmonic (4th -8th album), and the Pale Blue Orchestra(9th album).
You've done 3 from Wacken so far, 12 more left, the set opener was Dark Chest of Wonders. All songs at this show were recorded with either Tarja or Anette as the lead singer. Floor had only been in the band about 10 months at the time. She got Ghost Love Score added to the set as she loves the song.
12 more to go! Then I’m going to check out Anette and Tarja. I love that they utilize orchestras. That choir when they went off stage killed me
One of the greatest live bands for sure.
I’m hooked. No question
Youre not the first man to shed tears reacting to this. Its so beautiful and i cant stop watching it. Just imagine being in that crowd. Her voice reminds me of my mothers who passed away in 2015.
I would be balling the whole time if I was in that crowd. This whole concert is unreal
The thing I love about the Waken concert is that all the songs were written for other singers, however she owned them by the end of the concert. This band saved my sanity when I was on second lockdown (or as I like to call it house arrest). By diving into this band I found other bands along the way. It is a remarkable journey worth the time. I haven't get round a song I don't like. But I do have a favourite. TPATP. Enjoy the journey hun, the drop is so fun. NWA Calgary division signing off.
🤘 thank you!!
Yeah Bruce, yours is a most interesting reaction. Usually GLS from Wacken is the introduction song and gateway to the Nightwish journey. Most people are in awe of what they witnessing and hearing. In your case you have already made the emotional connection with NW and therefore this song has so much more of a personal impact.
This is usually reserved to Poet and the Pendulum and TGSOE, after the forged relationship of the fans with the songs has been established. Therefore your reaction is something very very special indeed. 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks! I didn’t expect that honestly lol. When I decided to do my first reaction to NW I wanted to do a different song other than GLS, to be a bit different and holy smokes it smacked me in the face.
A good smack lol :)
@@TheMindofBruce I second 'The Greatest Show on Earth', for an emotional smack down. The Tampere show 2015.
Agreed! Live at Tampere version!
I know what you mean about them found them for the first time 2020 during the big C accidentally clicked on this song almost clicked off till the drums start and I waited, played it many times afraid to play another of their song thinking I'd be disappointed finally listened and haven't stopped first band I evert came across that I liked every song but the talent in this band is like nothing I have ever heard the song writing, the musicians and the singing each the best at what they do but together they are unique old rock and roller have seen some of the best in the world and these people are the best God bless
They were sent to us! 🤘
I'm 68 years old been listening to pop/rock music since the early 1960,s love Pink floyd, Deep Purple, led zeppelin yes etc this is the first song that has brought tears to my eyes. First time hearing Nightwish 4 years ago on these reaction channels. Why I had not heard of them before!!!!!
Same! I just discovered them last week. Blown away
Greetings from Scotland. Excellent reaction my friend. Get used to the tears though - Floor will do this to you on a regular basis.
I can already feel it lol.
I’m so happy I found this band
I have heard thios song maybe 100 times and I have always big emotions ...
yes dude, we understand you, we all love Floor and we cry when we listen to her. Nightwish Army from Romania greets you!
🤘🤘🤘
She nailed this song like a boss🤯❤💯 and your reaction is very good TY🤘
Thanks for the comment!! She definately nailed it
Welcome to the Nightwish Army!!! YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE NOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nope lol
I always say that this is the perfect song.
Discovering Nightwish changed my life. They are like no other band.. hits so deep!!
I’m so grateful I found them
Floor the VALKYRIE QUEEN, and Tuomas the genius. And Emppu and all the others. The best Band, i ever hear. And i am old guy. Greetings from nothern Germany 🤘
Rock on!
@@TheMindofBruce yep, i do 🤘😊
Thank You! You are beautiful soul ❤
Means a lot. :) thank you!!!
@@TheMindofBruce 🤗
I've never experienced a band with this consistently high level of composition and empathic performance. I have found (and I believe you will, too) that there are pure instrumental moments that also will cause just as powerful a response. My physical reaction isn't goosebumps but rather a swelling in my chest. I can feel it coming, I can't stop it and I never try to explain it. I just bask in it, as you did in this reaction. Thanks for the openness.
Appreciate it, and I agree I can feel it in the chest. It’s unreal. When I saw Jinjer a few months ago as soon as she walked on stage it happened, the swelling of the chest then the band kicked in and she screamed and the tears came lol.
I was sort of happy tho 3 songs in she looked at me pointed and smiled. I was like ok this is cool 😹😹😹🤘👍🤘
The more you hear her sing, the more you fall in Love. She is Amazing, Supreme Perfection. Nighwish is Amazing.
🤘🤘🤘
Nightwish's music is powerful, it's beautiful and it brings emotions to the surface that you didn't even know you had.
🤘🤘❤️❤️
Had me crying the whole time. Hit deep. Can’t wait to hear more
🤘 so powerful. Thanks for watching ❤️
Absolutely understandable... Floor connects to your heart. Not by wifi but with a fat thick data cable. She pumps emotions into you through that cable.. My God, you are in for a ride. Not only Nightwish ( all, and I mean all of their songs are epic), but also check out her covers ( alone or shallow or take your pick). This travel with Floor will take you to music heaven. She is without doubt the very best singer at this moment. Worldwide. Whether it is symfonic metal, pop, rock, musical, opera, classical, Growling anything. She does everything, and she does anything better then everyone else. Some spirits whisper she is not from this world 😅. And Tuomas who writes all of this.....he is the reincarnation of Mozart. Nightwish + Floor = The absolute top......by far. Happy journey. This will bring you so much positive energy. Greetings from the Netherlands, land of milk and honey and epic female metal singers.
I’m excited to check out her covers. I was looking at her channel the other day
Start with "alone" ( recorded at home during Covid), "shallow", from a TV show called "beste zangers" , meaning best singers. "Euphoria", from that same show where she just had serious surgery, not able to travel, so she did it live remotely. When I just had surgery, I am pathetic, moaning in my bed and longing for attention and care ( typical male behaviour 😂). Not the case with this beast of a woman. She blows everyone away as ever. Her performance of "the Phantom of the opera" in beste zangers together with Henk Poort is regarded the best performance of the Phantom. Please wear seatbelts. Listening can be extremely hazardous to your health 😅
All her songs/ covers from Beste Zangers 2019. ❤
@@anaguq4651Beste Zangers 2019 is on Dailymotion, with English subtitles.
So you can hear not only the song, but also the talking about it, before and after the singing.
Whatever wall you have up, whatever guard you have up, HER voice cuts right through it like a hot sword through butter ..directly into your soul.
The GODDESS is the only singer in my 67 years who is able to bring me to tears whenever SHE wants to.
....and SHE does it a lot of times.......
So powerful! Not many people have that power, I’m learning rather quickly Floor has that power.🤘
Welcome to the Nightwish Army 👍
You are forever addicted..
Floor is definitely one of the best voices out there. It’s hard not to tear up.
She’s unbelievable. It’s angelic
I feel ya, I've shed tears to this as well
thanks for crying with us!
Of course!! There will be more tears 🤘
UK Army popping in for a great reaction. Nightwish will pull out your emotions... Slap you around the face with them and leave you not knowing what happened.
🤘🤘🤘
That's the Queen and the boys for you.....everyone is different but at least one song will hit you deep!....if not more
Unreal
Floor just moves people emotionally. Great band
So glad I found them and I am able to share the journey with you all. I keep getting amazing suggestions and I am finding such great music!
Loved your reaction. Big men do cry - I feel you friend! Like Nightwish, I´m also from Finland. And this band is my favorite.
Rock on!
Hello Bruce, Nightwish Army Italian Division here. Great reaction, thank you for the emotions you shared with us, btw this is what happened to all of us too listening this song, listening this roller coaster of emotions. You are definitely a Nightwish soldier now so ...... welcome to the family !! New subscriber here brother!
Thanks!!! 🤘🤘
“Adoring BEAST”. I love that bit!
So good
You must also check Buenos Aires, Wembley, Mexico etc., etc. You can see how much Floor has grown on the newer gigs. (and tattooed)
🤘 so much to do!! 😹
@@TheMindofBruce 😂😁
Yep 🤣 thx for the reaction🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
Hahaha thank you!! 🤘🤘
Don't mind about shedding tears, I'm 54 and seen life and this still make me shed a few tears every now and then, depending of state of my mental health, I suffer from severe depression. Keep on going friend.
You to my friend!!
Yes...your goosebumps get goosebumps....i've had it myself....she is amasing...🤫
🤘
Epic.
This is truly one of their most epic performances!!!!

Tuomas was in a radio interview some time ago where he talked about the five most important songs he has composed. Ghost Love Score was one of them and he said this:
----
Tuomas: Over the years, this has probably become accidentally, the ultimatum Nightwish song. At one point we had a gallup on the website which is a fan favorite Nightwish song and Ghost Love Score won by a landslide. In a way, it reflects the innermost essence of the band, it has all the elements that Nightwish is known for.
"What kind of story is this song lyrically?"
Tuomas: Our lyrics are not always so ambiguous and multidimensional. There is a clear theme in some of the songs, what the song is about, but Ghost Love Score has a very clear multi-layeredness, that is, the lyrics are purposely constructed in such a way that they can be understood in many different ways. What I was personally looking for then, I won't reveal, because in music and art a little mystery is good to be present.
Tuomas: We have talked a lot with Floor about which Nightwish songs from the time of Tarja and Anette she would like to sing and where her voice is best suited. Ghost Love Score is Floor's all-time favorite Nightwish song. She wanted to make it her own and this has happened over the years. The last part of the song has the last note of the last chorus, it has become a bit of a cult case - the audience waits for it and when that last note comes out there is always quite a shudder from the audience.
"That's probably the best thing about that job when you get a feeling and a reaction from the audience like that!?"
Tuomas: It's a really confusing and somehow multidimensional experience. The songs very often tell about some personal things. There are things that have been on my mind. There are a lot of things that you don't want the world to see, but you just have to put them there to keep your head together. When you see tens of thousands of people at a big festival singing along to the lyrics of that song and getting huge emotional reactions from it, it's a really strange feeling. In a way, I wrote the lyrics of this song for myself and now everyone has adopted them - of course they interpret them in their own way, which is one of the best things about music. At that moment, however, it's really intriguing or strange feeling for me.
Multidimensional experience sums it up perfectly
If I remember right, Tuomas was asked if he has spoken with the GODDESS about his real meaning of GLS.
And he said: No, SHE sings it like SHE feels it.
@@HCH944 Tuomas asked that does she know what the lyrics are about exactly and he asked if she wants to know, but Floor said she doesn't want to because she has her own interpretation of what they are about. I'm sure he has said exactly how you said it. This what I said he told recently and that conversation was maybe 2022.
@@ValtteL Thanx Valtte......I try to find out, but not today......I wrote it down in my quote collection......but forgot the source.... we see each other......
@@ValtteL after hours of searching I found your quotation in chaoszine dated 26.12.22 also quoted as an anecdote.
But i haven`t found the words that I have in my mind.
However.....it doesn`t matter ...
Fact is that SHE doesn`t exactly know what Tuomas meant by the song....SHE just sings it how SHE feels it....that matters.
You are brave to cry in public! Keep up the good work. With Nightwish every new morning is wonderful.
Thanks so much!! Emotions sometimes get let out 😹😹🤘
Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! 6'1'' Dutch Valkyrie Goddess spotted !
And, Floor has an ability to draw out pure and raw emotions (she is an empath!!!). Like one of my favorite reactors have said: Floor's voice has an ability to push you down to flight of stairs, then catch you at the bottom and do it all over again (Shout out to Eric and Concurpas), and you Love every second of it !!!!!
Here is a little more info about the most powerful voice in our time:
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. Plus, huge vocal nerd 😉.
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, where she graduated in 2003. She studied musical theatre and a year of opera. 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 (Second singer of Nightwish after Tarja) as singer of Nightwish during the Imaginaerum World Tour (And she had to learn the setlist in 48h). 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.
And I say this :
Floor was, is, and always will be, a force of nature !!!!
You earned this !!!! NEW subscriber here!!! You will see me on your other NW and Epica Reactions !!!!

Thanks again!
Hey Bruce, thank you so much for this reaction, i have seen so much of this, but that one, i had fun , i was near crying, i danced, it was Amazing.
The Quality, the emotions and your overall stile of doing this videos is outstanding. Thank you ...very much Best Reaction to GLS ever!!!!
Thanks so much for that!! I really appreciate it. I try to give the best quality video and audio I can, and I’m usually full of emotions, but this song got me good! 🤘🤘
Best female rock metal singer I have heard in my 60 plus years. I won't elaborate, as I'm sure the other 500 plus comments have addressed Floor and Nightwish. Maybe the best band ever heard, and I've heard allot. They are my favorite band, at this stage of my life.
Couldn't agree more!
I just love myself some fresh tears from another soul, snatched by the Valkyrie Goddes, that goes by the name of Floor Jansen, in the morning. New sub here. You did well Bruce.
Thanks for the sub!
I knew you were in BIG trouble when you got emotional before The Valkyrie Goddess even hit the mike...😄
BTW, tears induced by Floor are cleansing!
Yup lol. 😹😹
Love your reactions man. This band and in particular this concert is mindblowing. I also cannot express what i feel watching this concert.
I really appreciate that. Trying to build a community of hope!! I’m pretty animated and this band makes me all giddy and emotional lol
We got you man. Hits the same time over here, every time.

when i discovered them 2 years ago i also had this tear expearience over and over for a long time. after quite a while i figured it out to be, (for me) the music reaching deep down into me and releasing tension.
Music does that! Wooo!!
Greetings from northern cold Finland.
Nice that you picked this one. It's a masterpiece and I'm saying this as a pop acoustic composer.
Thank you very much!
One of the best reactions I"ve seen. Point
That means a lot!! 🤘🤘
Great reaction, keep them coming! And dont worry - Floor makes grown men cry every day. Her voice is what Angels must sound like in heaven.
Thank you! Will do!
Emjoy your Nightwish and Epica journey. You're in for a great experience!!
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thank you! Will do!
You will feel these and other emotions in most of Nightwish's songs, so prepare yourself.
On a personal note, I have suffered from depression my whole life, since I can remember, and at some point I stopped feeling most emotions. Last year, I found this band by accident, and the lyrics and the way Floor sings and channels their emotions made me cry after so many years. I can actually say their songs changed me and made me see life in a different way.
I hope you continue this awesome experience. Greetings from the NW Army Portugal.🤘
It’s incredible what music can do for the soul. It gets me through so much. I’m also really grateful I found this band. It’s an experience and I’ve only heard 3 songs so far!! Although probably 40 times each now 😹😹🤘
Floor is an amazing singer and makes me emotional every time.I appreciate that you are genuine and show your feelings,there is nothing wrong with that 👍
Thank you for that. I’m just me, and music gets me good 😹😹🤘
@@TheMindofBruce Yeah, me too 😅👌
This is the 13th song of a 15 song set , stamina is amazing , drummer incredible and Floor is the best live female singer ive ever heard . I was the same way of you , music is a emotion for me , great reaction thanks
Thanks so much. Music is emotion to me as well. Otherwise what’s the point? 🤘🤘🤘
Appreciate your emotional reaction man, it shows you get it. I can’t wait for more epica, they are the standard 🤘
More Epica to come!! Thank you!!
Amazing reaction ❤ Nightwish is amazing ❤❤❤❤ thank you😊
Thanks so much!!
NW Army Detroit chapter here, I discovered them in 2021 when I saw a reaction video and been hooked ever since. I think the reason us NW Army fans are so engaged is because especially in the US where we NEVER FREAKING HEAR ABOUT BANDS LIKE THIS we almost have to rely on word of mouth. So it's good to chill with others who are discovering what we've been missing and what the lucky masses in the rest of the world have known for freaking years. I'm an aging metal chick myself and NW is just part of who I am now.
One request: please don't let people railroad you into taking sides on the different singers. Each one has their strengths and weaknesses and all of them have added value to NW. Tarja and Annette, they are not Floor but they each have their set of songs that I like hearing sung in their voices. Give them a chance, especially Annette. I feel she is the most discounted singer and that's a damn shame. She was the "Jason Newsted" of this band and got a raw deal from the band and the fans, she never pretended to be Tarja and she did her own thing. I have mad respect for all three singers.
Ya I am big on forming my own opinions about stuff. I can’t wait to take a listen to both Annette and Tarja.
Slow and steady haha lots of work to do.
I agree tho it sucks we have to find bands like this through word of mouth, but eventually we find them when the time is right!!
Floor has fond memories of (on?) this particular performance, she made a video on her channel reacting to herself and explaining her thoughts during the song.
Thank you for acknowledging Tuomas's great song writing abilities. The lyrics are very deep, much more so than most other bands. Sometimes the epic performance hides the fact that these are brilliantly written songs.
Hes so good.
Never ever stop on a solo.
🤷♂️🤘
Love your videos bro keep on marching.
Honestly if this doesn't get you emotional, then you aren't a true music fan. The notes of sound transcend the barriers of the physical and resonate in the strings of emotions inside us all.
Thanks a lot!! Appreciate it. Music has gotten me through so much in life!!
Bruce, more tears are sure to come. There is so much beauty they have made, the journey continues and we go with you. And we've all been through the tears with so many other songs. tears of beautiful emotion. Until the next.🤘🤘
🤘🤘
Cool reaction, great analysis!!!!
You feeling with our queen Mrs. FLOOR JANSEN!!! Greetings from Argentina!!!🤘😉👏😎👍🤗🔥🔥🔥 #floorgasm
Thank you!! 🤘🤘
Crushing it!
My guy!!
Spot on .... The shell is oure ego ore personality to protect your self
Thank you!! That song got me good
I’m with you man.. she has the same effect on me too .. out of this world ..
I’ve seen these guys live and they have changed my life 🤟🏻
I need to see them lol. Hopefully they tour again!
Crying when Floor opens her mouth to sing, is totally normal. With her amazing voice and stage presence, she gets even the toughest guys on their knees.
She got me for sure lol
and always remember that all songs they performed in Wacken 2013 were not written for or with Floor !
It’s unreal she can do that.
You've got totally Floored. Floorgasmes in maximus mode.
That's the Nightwish experience, mesmerising. Enjoy 🤘
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🫡
Rock on!🤘
Just found your channel and watching all the Nightwish videos, after this I see the Northward one! You seem like a sweet man and your emotions are refreshing to see and experience with you!
Thanks so much. That really means a lot. I have a lot of Nightwish to do lol
NW songs are stories, feelings and pure art. One will drown in to them and die, only to rise again better. Greetings from Finland.
Nightwish takes you deep, but always also brings you back. It's healing.... next, mayby diving into piano black waters?❤Song Of Myself. Yes, please😊🤘🔥
🤘🤘 it is healing for sure. I listened to the song earlier again and got fired up at how good it is
You will hear Floor doing this type of choral vocalization on many songs, However, this song is one done with a previous Nightwish vocalist.
She does this to all of us my friend. This was the first experience I had with Nightwish and Floor. It only took a couple of lines before the Floorgasm began and the dam broke. My life has changed since that moment.
Tuomas has left the meaning and interpretation of this masterpiece to our individual understanding.
IMHO - I think it is about losing a love to death or end the torment as one possible understanding. Thus the lines, Take me cure me kill me. As if the writer is saying either allow me to move on from this lost love or kill me so I can be reunited in death.
There are several other possibilities. One of which could be that it is an unspoken and unrequited love that is never acted upon. A love from afar perhaps?
What it means to you is what is the most important.
The journey has only begun.
A few tips to lyrical interpretation of Tuomas' deep level poetic styling.
#1. He loves to write about losing or yearning to recapture the innocence of youth. He is like one of the Lost Boys. He wants to never grow up and feels that the responsibilities and realism of the adult world kills off the childhood innocence. The awe and wonder we all experience as children as we develop our human imagination and love of fantasy and stories.
#2. When you hear him reference Dead Boy, he is referring to that loss of innocence which hardens the human soul and forces us all to suppress our emotions or put up those walls.
There are many others that you will discover on this amazing journey.
It is a little low in the mix at Wacken. However, the choir part is repeating throughout the song. The end changes from "If you be the one to cut me I will bleed forever", to;
My fall will be for you
My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
You were the one to cut me
So I’ll bleed forever
Tuomas is such an incredible lyricist. To be able to write such meaningful songs, one must have had to been through a lot of things in life.
That’s what I love about music is the meaning behind the lyrics can be interpreted to our own life. Which is why I think it’s so incredibly powerful
this is part of music history everyone should watch 🐕
Agreed. Glad I finally got to it lol
Nightwish is the best finnish metal band ❤ I've loved their music since I was a little girl. I'm glad you have found them 🤘 you should make a video of 'The last ride of the day' and of course live version 😁😎
So good!
Those goosebumbs you felt are officialy called “Floorgasm’s. 😂
😹😹🤘
"I have lost the path before me, the one behind will lead me"
I interpret this line as the speaker believing they had a whole life ahead with their partner, but then they lost that person, so that path they envisioned is now gone. Still, it's the memories from that relationship that sustain them. Like, the ghost of our love will keep me going.
Fantastic reaction dude, I love how this hits you because it's just exactly how it hits me - you mentioned they're your new favourite band and that was my experience when a friend introduced me to Nightwish 5 years (or so) ago. I'm an old school Metalhead, Motorhead, Saxon, Priest, Anthrax, Megadeth, these sorts of bands are still my musical heartland and I thought the idea of Symphonic Metal sounded pretentious and ridiculous - and then I saw this Wacken performance of Ghost Love Score and everything made sense 🤘
Thanks so much. Ya I kind of felt the same way, but oh boy how the tides have turned lol. 🤘🤘🤘
Just subscribed because of Nightwish. You feel quite like I do. Awesome to see that.
I appreciate it!! Thanks for joining the hope gang and the journey!!!
As you have discovered, Floor is an Enchantress. (And I, like you, am VERY susceptible to her particular type of magic.) The exploration of Nightwish is a journey that will enthrall you like no other. There is so much variety and so many nuances to their music ... and their live performances are, in my opinion, simply breathtaking. Listening to, and especially watching Nightwish, I'm usually either grinning like a maniac or wiping a tear out of my eye. No recommendations from me, you can't go wrong following Gabriel's advice. Enjoy the journey, as a new subscriber, I will watch on with interest. All the very best from the Canberra Regiment, Australian Division, Nightwish Army.
Thanks!!
Welcome to the sunlight, Tuomas brings ALL the feelers out
subscribed to be part of your nightwish journey. Greetings from germany 🤘🔥♥️
Welcome aboard!
This song can be about loving someone from afar without them knowing or a love that was lost, perhaps even an unrequited love. It hits everyone for different reasons. As Tuomas says, "It means whatever you need it to".
Ugh Tuomas is amazing. He knows we all relate these songs to personal experiences
All aboard the nightwish train, choo choo!
🤘
