(Hi Alan👍)Yes, i agree,if you review a song,focus on it,all this talking is really distracting and get the fact's straight,there was not much acurate info.🤨 We like people to introduce Nightwish to others,but not really in this chaotic way.
Correction: Floor did not know any of the Anette material when she flew in as the emergency replacement and that first show was mostly Anette material. She learned them from scratch on the flights over to Seattle. She only had a passing familiarity with some of the Tarja era songs as After Forever had toured with Nightwish in 2002. She did not know any of the Tarja songs well enough to just get up and performed them. That's all detailed in the documentary where she clearly states that she did not know any the new material and that show was almost all new material to her. I think people don't realize how quickly pros can absorb and perform new material.
And make it their own. Like with GLS. ruclips.net/video/XTZb1ypB08g/видео.html ruclips.net/video/AH9CtaeRnh8/видео.html These are the first versions of GLS with Floors alternative ending. Please pay attention; Floor was at her sisters wedding when she received an emergency call from Nightwish, 48 hours later she was on stage with them. ( See the documentary) This is in Argentina, and if you watch the faces of the bandmembers you can see that she can't leave the band anymore, she is the one that Tuomas allways wanted, no vocal limits; ruclips.net/video/3brcfttchzA/видео.html
Oh dear…maybe next time listen the song in full and comment after? Because the pauses are so long you lose the flow of the song and talking over the song doesn’t help either.
You are talking through Floor’s singing! That’s just not done. This is really a disappointing reaction with inaccurate info. for instance Troy was already working with the band before Floor joined, maybe not as part of the band at that time. Troy and floor were actually officially incorporated into the band at about the same time. I think you need to be from north west Europe ( I’m from the Netherlands, like Floor, home to most of the bands you named, Nightwish is Finnish) to really appreciate metal, because it’s inbred in us just like country music is part of American culture. We can both learn to appreciate each others music.
I am from a town near Kitee and was in my "prime party age" during Nighwish's early years..and little later. They played in that town several times. I have friends who are/were metalheads, but I actually don't know anyone who is a Nightwish fan. There are also a lot of metalheads in the US and other parts of Europe. I have lived my whole life in Finland so I know quite a lot of people in here, but not that many who are into metal. Yes, metal is popular and mainstream in Finland, but saying it is inbred is heavily exaggerated. Other than that, totally agree. If I don't mix this with another reaction, I think the guy talked about Finnish vikings. There were no vikings in Finland. Vikings tried to invade Finland though, but they found out that people living in this country were too savage and brutal to fight against and left very quickly.
@@kimmomatikainen1843 perhaps a bit exaggerated about the part that metal is inbred but it’s so much more wel known here, the Netherlands, Germany and the Scandinavian countries. Epica, within Temptation are Dutch bands , Rammstein from Germany, are all quite well known. I know that American has Metallica, Guns and roses, Disturbed, etc but it’s just not the same.
Hello from Finland! Tuomas Holopainen army members across the pond, Nightwish is propabaly the biggest export of Finland since Nokia :D. Singer is Dutch
Sorry, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but this is not for me🙄 You intruduced the song for 20 minutes and then when the song starts, you all start talking over the song on and on...😒😒
Long rant in the middle of the song is not optimal for first time listener. Floor with her earlier band After Forever was also supporting act for Nightwish on tour back in 2002 or so. So they were familiar with each other. Ps. Floor nor vikings are from Finland. Finland is actually a country that was never ravaged by vikings even though they traded here. Historical stories tell thats because vikings were afraid of finns.
Vikings tried to come to Finland with violence as well, but people in this land were too savage for them. I have read similar stories from very old Russian writings. Finns smelled bad, were big and brutal, like animals/beasts. There was a long writing (several pages) in a newspaper over 20 years ago about those writings, but I have not been able to find it anywhere. It was kind of funny and didn't give a very civilized picture of us Finns.
Hello Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands. Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish. They are from Finland. And they make Symphonic Metal. What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do. Nightwish really hits you in your heart. And that's what makes this band so unique. Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch. There were 82,000 people there. I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion. Watch out for the Nightwish Army. Greetings from the Netherlands.
It's definitely professionell to know the exact schedule! You're really confused. Anetts first album has been in 2007 and not 2011. And there are many other inaccuracies, so it's better not talking to much when you don't know the facts. And the preference of the albums is definitely a matter of taste!
Officially, they have never performed with an orchestra because it is very complex and prone to disruption. Mistakes always happen. That never bothered Epica, who have performed with an orchestra several times, or Visions of Atlantis with a small orchestra: Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show VISIONS OF ATLANTIS - Pirates Will Return (Official Live Video) | Napalm Records The Wacken festival grounds were and are in parts a pasture. The village has 2110 inhabitants and apart from farms and the festival there is nothing worth mentioning there. It was founded by people from the area and the surrounding area because there was no opportunity for their own metal band or others to perform. The first stage was a rented truck. Today it takes place over 4 days, on 7(?) stages of different sizes. Anette had become pregnant unexpectedly and was therefore supposed to be replaced for the Australian tour. This led to an argument that finally escalated during the US tour. Suddenly they need a new singer in two days. The Wacken concert took place 10 months after the change. The documentary only shows snippets of her very first performance. Tarja was able to establish herself as an independent singer. Anette hasn't had any major success since she left. I always resist the Mozart comparison. Metal Mozart sounds good, but Mozart was the pop musician among the great classics. Beethoven was the metalhead. For Imaginaerum, Tuomas had the idea of a series of music videos. That way, the music videos could have been released individually. The director then convinced him to make a real film where the music from the album can only be heard in excerpts.
All the talking over the song spoils it for me ..... Also the people with you who have never heard it before will lose some of the delights of the music and it must be very frustrating having to listen to the others while trying to listen to the music
Great to see you introduce Nightwish to other people but they could not really listen with all the talking over the music. For a Nightwish introduction I think Storytime at Wacken 2013 is the best song (more 'accessible' than GLS).
Wow, dissing the band that made Tuomas create Nightwish. Without Metallica and Tuomas visiting a concert of them it is a possibility that Nightwish had never been created
😀 Hallo and good morning from Germany. Thanks for your reaction. Go on, the rabbithole is deep, as you know. Enjoy the scary ride down the GHOST RIVER 🤗 alex
I'm 1 minute into the actual reaction and I'm already annoyed af. Stop talking while the music is going. And why is the host talking so much when he said he wouldn't? Also why are you talking about Megadeath? I'm not going to continue watching this, I can already tell after ONE MINUTE that this is going to piss me off. I hope the 3 people on the left side eventually got to experience the music and Floor uninterrupted, and got a proper experience. I'm not going to stay here to find out.
Just in case you're wondering, one of the people on the left tried to enjoy it but the talking continued. The host paused long enough for Floor to get her end notes out but, as you can imagine, it's hard to even appreciate that when you don't hear anything that led up to it.
Groningen Squad the Netherlands.reporting in. Tuomas the writer end Keyboardist of Nightwish became a fan of Metallica and Pink Floyd during an exchange student program from Finland to America. Ghost Love Score is a song of the group Finnish of symphonic metal Nightwish , lasting ten minutes and two seconds. The song is on the album of the year 2004 called Eleven , and was composed by keyboardist of the band Tuomas Holopainen .
Floor was thirty ish when this was recorded. If this was too metal I highly recommend Floors solo of Lady Gaga's "Shallow" which will give you a whole different perspective on her vocal skills and texture. Very different than this and the way I love her most.
So we watched reactions of 4 people reacting? Feedback: FLOOR IS DUTCH( not Finnish) Talking threw the music constantly is terrible. No one of you heard the song for real. 1st reactor loves hearing himself Epica, Within Temptation and the Gathering are also Dutch bands, leaders in Symphonic Metal and most female metal vocalists are Dutch. I did not enjoy this reaction to be honest. I love to see reactions, but this was just a conversation with the song in the background.
Our General Gabriel will be here soon to support your journey. Wacken 2013 will forever be the Platinum standard. Ghost Love Score, especially the last two minutes, is perhaps one of the greatest live performances in extant. Floor is simply - it. We are hoping they will tour once again in 2026 and if "they work out some of the business end of the management" Marko would consider rejoining in some capacity. (a quote from earlier this year). Nightwish Army, Vancouver SW BC Canadian Division present.
Not sure if he is really needed considering that this guy is a Nightwish fan and clearly knows quite a lot although he made few mistakes, but that doesn't really matter.
Another great performance is Sancta Terra with Simone Simons and her group Epica (also Symphonic metal at time much heavier than Nightwish with Mark Janson (No Relation) Growls in contrast to Simone's heavenly voice much like Amy Lee's voice.
Thanks for sharing your multifaceted reaction to this evocative and emotional song about the power of love and a desire for redemption. It tells about remembering a lost love and accepting that to get over a betrayal, you must sometimes let go. The song ultimately conveys the idea that despite the highs and lows of life, love will always be there and that if you are strong enough to accept its flaws, it will still be worth the journey.
Enjoyed the reaction! One correction, Troy Donockley was a guest musician on Dark Passion Play and Imaginaerum. Shortly after the Wacken concert both Floor and Troy were announced as permanent members of Nightwish although I think the band had already made the decision before this show.
That was the funniest thing you said , Floor was a descendent from Finish Vikings , Floor is Dutch from the Netherlands , get your facts straight , you ruined this whole video with all the talking .
@@trfatman I definitely get the criticism though. Generally here on the channel we do much longer reactions to full-length albums and we focus on production things. For example we focus on the mix and the mastering and panning and if we can make an educated guess how things were recorded... All of which are better talking about while you can hear the example playing. If I wanted to talk about the deep meaning of a song or explain some vague concept I could do that afterwards and you wouldn't have to be listening to it, but I just feel like it's better to talk about production things while you can hear the music. Anyway, that all goes to say that we are used to talking over the music and commenting on things that are slightly more objective rather than trying to feel the entirety of the song and give our subjective opinion after we've heard it. This might not be the right way to reply to this particular comment but I've been trying to think about how to word that in relation to how everybody is replying negatively to this video... So I guess I'll just put this here!
Most looking forward to the Poet and the Pendulum. Also agree with your selection of the Beste Zangers version of "Phantom of the Opera". As for comments about some of the talking, unfortunately, there is just SO much information to get through, what can we do anyway? Hope we can get to some more of the Wacken songs soon! 💯 💖
35:15 Tuomas has repeatedly said that he doesn't want to do full orchestra performance because it would feel like copying because other bands have already done that. So it's more about ego stuff than technical limitations.
Anette left in late 2012. This concert is ten months after Floor joined. Sorry but Anette's albums are good but would have been much better if Floor performed them.
Great reaction folks! I hope y'all enjoy the journey! You'll never know what to expect from song to song, or even within a song. As for NW never performing with a live orcherstra, I read somewhere, so I don't know how true this is, that Toumas thought there would be too many elements to have everything work perfectly during a performance. He's definitely a perfectionist. I've seen videos compiled from several concerts, using the same video and audio for a particular song, and it's almost impossible to tell the segments were from different shows. 🙂
Never heard of the movie you're talking about. The only Annette song I really liked was....I think it's titled, "Slow Love, Slow".... but it fits into the music of New Orleans...like at Pat O'Brien's...or one of the other venues in the city! I love the first two albums with Floor, & they are fabulous....and Floors solo album is also fantastic, considering she wrote all of the lyrics and music!
I'd say this is audio and production that should be studied in school like every performance they do they live up to their namesake Here's Floor Jansens Friend Simone Simons band Epica Kingdom of Heaven Part 3 Omega Alive (Part 1 and 2 are amazing also but this is my favorite after Design your Universe Retrospective concert for their 10 year anniversary now 22 years. Coen Janssen on Keys plays 3 different keyboards in this including a piano on fire and video start with soft movie score music till you see circus solei performers hanging from the chandeliers with lights later they have flames they hold with their toes ruclips.net/video/BdBCVMD8TiM/видео.html
Criticism would be for much information and hype for first time listeners. I think proper way to do this is short intro about familiarity, song and then talk. I'll be here if you continue.
Greetings from Finland. Thank you for yours reaction to Nightwish.❤ Way too much talking, better do the talking afterwords. 😅 But hope you continue doing these Nightwish reaction's.
Happy Finn here. Thank u for quality topic. Very different than most of the NW reactions, mostly about length and discussion in it I dont going to say is it good or bad. I dont decide yet😅 I still hope you get that amount of views that u continue with this "snowball" in the future. All the best to all of you.
my hope is, that in 2027 when the Band has its 30th Anniversary - they give a couple of concerts with a live orchester and all the choirs .. i would travel the world to be at 1 of such a concert... Gottseidank Finnland is only one border away
You could see Tuomas playing the strings parts on his keyboard! - He would play every part if he had ten hands - that's a paraphrased quote! He co-arranged and conducted the orchestral backing track with Pip Williams! Tuomas was at least partially inspired by seeing a Metallica concert in the US before he began Nightwish! The genre is Symphonic Metal. Floor is a Dutch name - like Fleur in France - means "flower"! Oh, boy! Too much talking and not enough listening! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996 - when they started, with Sami Vanska on bass!.
@@monicacarolina6480 Sure, Wintersun is not pure symphonic metal but their latest album Time II definitely has tracks with full orchestra backgrounds and is definitely metal, right?
5:19 "What damages would they sue you for?" It turns out that at least here in Europe, music companies have successfully sued for *potential damages* with explanation that unless the viewers/listeners had heard the song from pirated material they would have purchased the full album instead. And because that potential audience is *everybody that hasn't yet purchased the album* the potential damage is about population of the Earth times the resale price of the album. But because the record company is very nice, they will only ask for 1% of the damages from the court. 😉
Sorry, I stopped listening, it is so much talking about nothing and even during the singing. You prefer to hear your voice in stead of the music, too bad ...
good reaction and analysis of the best version of this song. I suggest listening to what, for me, is the best metal band of the last 20 or 30 years, Lovebites (Japanese band), choose any live song and I think you will be surprised. They never disappoint.
Perfume of the soul…🤨 said a NW fan? And agree with the rest…way too much talking completely through the song…thats a big no go 👎🏼 Sorry but couldnt watch the reaction till the end….
Saw them live twice, both times in Toronto. Fisrt time was in 2004 with Tarja singing. Second in 2012 wih Floor. Speaking of Megadeath, in the 2004 show Marco sang Symphony of Destruction with the rest of the band while Tarja was offstage for a costume change.
Interesting way of doing it! Ideally I'd go for a bit less talking over the music, but you do need to be doing some and it's a hard balance to strike. I'd be up for more.
Fan in the upper right. Your enthusiasm is share by all of us. But for this video, you is talkin' way too much. Let your friends hear the music.
(Hi Alan👍)Yes, i agree,if you review a song,focus on it,all this talking is really distracting and get the fact's straight,there was not much acurate info.🤨
We like people to introduce Nightwish to others,but not really in this chaotic way.
20 minutes 😮
And, he said he wasn't going to do that then couldn't stfu!
TMI. the song build up and climax is completely lost this way
@@bertjones3010it was ridiculous, non of them heard the song
Correction: Floor did not know any of the Anette material when she flew in as the emergency replacement and that first show was mostly Anette material. She learned them from scratch on the flights over to Seattle. She only had a passing familiarity with some of the Tarja era songs as After Forever had toured with Nightwish in 2002.

Never been able to master that skill of listening and talking at the same time.

The Wacken festival grounds were and are in parts a pasture. The village has 2110 inhabitants and apart from farms and the festival there is nothing worth mentioning there. It was founded by people from the area and the surrounding area because there was no opportunity for their own metal band or others to perform. The first stage was a rented truck. Today it takes place over 4 days, on 7(?) stages of different sizes.
Anette had become pregnant unexpectedly and was therefore supposed to be replaced for the Australian tour. This led to an argument that finally escalated during the US tour. Suddenly they need a new singer in two days.

Nightwish is a Finnish band, but Floor (Flora) Jansen is from the Netherlands and Troy (multi instrumentalist) is from the UK.

😀 Hallo and good morning from Germany. Thanks for your reaction. Go on, the rabbithole is deep, as you know. Enjoy the scary ride down the GHOST RIVER 🤗 alex
I'm 1 minute into the actual reaction and I'm already annoyed af. Stop talking while the music is going. And why is the host talking so much when he said he wouldn't? Also why are you talking about Megadeath? I'm not going to continue watching this, I can already tell after ONE MINUTE that this is going to piss me off.
I hope the 3 people on the left side eventually got to experience the music and Floor uninterrupted, and got a proper experience. I'm not going to stay here to find out.
Just in case you're wondering, one of the people on the left tried to enjoy it but the talking continued. The host paused long enough for Floor to get her end notes out but, as you can imagine, it's hard to even appreciate that when you don't hear anything that led up to it.

That was the funniest thing you said , Floor was a descendent from Finish Vikings , Floor is Dutch from the Netherlands , get your facts straight , you ruined this whole video with all the talking .
NW army Sweden here.
Have seen nightwish 3 times in London ❤
I really like this concept where you introduce us, the Nightwish Army. Well done 😁 Greetings to you all four from Westland, The Netherlands regiment.
One of of the worst (if not the worst) reactions I’ve ever seen.
You shouldn’t have talked over the song
There was two old rockers who reacted to Nightwish and they just didn't get it. The Nightwish Army was gentle on them.
@@trfatman I definitely get the criticism though. Generally here on the channel we do much longer reactions to full-length albums and we focus on production things. For example we focus on the mix and the mastering and panning and if we can make an educated guess how things were recorded... All of which are better talking about while you can hear the example playing.
If I wanted to talk about the deep meaning of a song or explain some vague concept I could do that afterwards and you wouldn't have to be listening to it, but I just feel like it's better to talk about production things while you can hear the music.
Anyway, that all goes to say that we are used to talking over the music and commenting on things that are slightly more objective rather than trying to feel the entirety of the song and give our subjective opinion after we've heard it.
This might not be the right way to reply to this particular comment but I've been trying to think about how to word that in relation to how everybody is replying negatively to this video... So I guess I'll just put this here!
@@PatrickMusilek I wasn't referring to you guys. It was another channel.
Well if you want listeners, youre deadcass wrong. @@PatrickMusilek
Most looking forward to the Poet and the Pendulum. Also agree with your selection of the Beste Zangers version of "Phantom of the Opera". As for comments about some of the talking, unfortunately, there is just SO much information to get through, what can we do anyway? Hope we can get to some more of the Wacken songs soon! 💯 💖
35:15 Tuomas has repeatedly said that he doesn't want to do full orchestra performance because it would feel like copying because other bands have already done that. So it's more about ego stuff than technical limitations.
Anette left in late 2012. This concert is ten months after Floor joined. Sorry but Anette's albums are good but would have been much better if Floor performed them.
Blablablablabla😢
Great reaction folks! I hope y'all enjoy the journey! You'll never know what to expect from song to song, or even within a song.
As for NW never performing with a live orcherstra, I read somewhere, so I don't know how true this is, that Toumas thought there would be too many elements to have everything work perfectly during a performance. He's definitely a perfectionist. I've seen videos compiled from several concerts, using the same video and audio for a particular song, and it's almost impossible to tell the segments were from different shows. 🙂
Never heard of the movie you're talking about. The only Annette song I really liked was....I think it's titled, "Slow Love, Slow".... but it fits into the music of New Orleans...like at Pat O'Brien's...or one of the other venues in the city!
I love the first two albums with Floor, & they are fabulous....and Floors solo album is also fantastic, considering she wrote all of the lyrics and music!
I'd say this is audio and production that should be studied in school like every performance they do they live up to their namesake Here's Floor Jansens Friend Simone Simons band Epica Kingdom of Heaven Part 3 Omega Alive (Part 1 and 2 are amazing also but this is my favorite after Design your Universe Retrospective concert for their 10 year anniversary now 22 years. Coen Janssen on Keys plays 3 different keyboards in this including a piano on fire and video start with soft movie score music till you see circus solei performers hanging from the chandeliers with lights later they have flames they hold with their toes ruclips.net/video/BdBCVMD8TiM/видео.html
Criticism would be for much information and hype for first time listeners. I think proper way to do this is short intro about familiarity, song and then talk.
I'll be here if you continue.
Greetings from Finland.
Thank you for yours reaction to Nightwish.❤
Way too much talking, better do the talking afterwords. 😅
But hope you continue doing these Nightwish reaction's.
Happy Finn here. Thank u for quality topic. Very different than most of the NW reactions, mostly about length and discussion in it I dont going to say is it good or bad. I dont decide yet😅
I still hope you get that amount of views that u continue with this "snowball" in the future.
All the best to all of you.
my hope is, that in 2027 when the Band has its 30th Anniversary - they give a couple of concerts with a live orchester and all the choirs .. i would travel the world to be at 1 of such a concert...
Gottseidank Finnland is only one border away
Ok!!!
Mostly. FLOOR!!!!
Floor is 6' 1/2 " & wears 3 to 4 ' heels.
Does this guy ever stop talking... Jesus.
shit. you don't hear anything
The hype is real! Try the Sparkling Ice Starburst flavors!!!
Just shut up?
You could see Tuomas playing the strings parts on his keyboard! - He would play every part if he had ten hands - that's a paraphrased quote! He co-arranged and conducted the orchestral backing track with Pip Williams! Tuomas was at least partially inspired by seeing a Metallica concert in the US before he began Nightwish! The genre is Symphonic Metal. Floor is a Dutch name - like Fleur in France - means "flower"! Oh, boy! Too much talking and not enough listening! Nightwish Army, Blue Mountains Corps, Australia. Nightwish since 1996 - when they started, with Sami Vanska on bass!.
Damn you triggered my google...
A Nightwish curious, here.
Bucket list!!!!!
33:24 I would argue that Wintersun is also symphonic metal and it definitely has zero female vocals.
Winterden is not symphonic metal
@@monicacarolina6480 Sure, Wintersun is not pure symphonic metal but their latest album Time II definitely has tracks with full orchestra backgrounds and is definitely metal, right?
NEXT FROM FINLAND. Battle Beast NOORA LOUHIMO. Where Angels Fear to Fly official video. Noora what a voice. Her vocals are incredible.
HAAAAAAIL!!!!
WaCKEN!!!!
How could you have possibly, have listened to the song? Talk, Talk, Talk.
5:19 "What damages would they sue you for?"
It turns out that at least here in Europe, music companies have successfully sued for *potential damages* with explanation that unless the viewers/listeners had heard the song from pirated material they would have purchased the full album instead. And because that potential audience is *everybody that hasn't yet purchased the album* the potential damage is about population of the Earth times the resale price of the album. But because the record company is very nice, they will only ask for 1% of the damages from the court. 😉
worst reaction ever quit while youre behind
Sorry, I stopped listening, it is so much talking about nothing and even during the singing. You prefer to hear your voice in stead of the music, too bad ...
Maior banda
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done
🤩👍💥💯🎼
🤘😎💙🎶
Someone is talking to much 😅
talk less, listen more...
good reaction and analysis of the best version of this song. I suggest listening to what, for me, is the best metal band of the last 20 or 30 years, Lovebites (Japanese band), choose any live song and I think you will be surprised. They never disappoint.
You might be engineers, however sad to see you do not have the skills to stop the music when talking
Wow you talk way too much. Get to the song faster, and don’t talk over the performance.
Perfume of the soul…🤨 said a NW fan?
And agree with the rest…way too much talking completely through the song…thats a big no go 👎🏼
Sorry but couldnt watch the reaction till the end….
Saw them live twice, both times in Toronto. Fisrt time was in 2004 with Tarja singing. Second in 2012 wih Floor. Speaking of Megadeath, in the 2004 show Marco sang Symphony of Destruction with the rest of the band while Tarja was offstage for a costume change.
Interesting way of doing it! Ideally I'd go for a bit less talking over the music, but you do need to be doing some and it's a hard balance to strike. I'd be up for more.
@patrickmusile, 7 days to the Wolves has to be the Wembley live 2015…..sacrilege not doing that version. 🤟🤟✌️✌️🇨🇦
@@FREETHINKER-05 I wanted a version with Annette though, but I will look into it!
