Tarja was purely Operatic, Anette was purely Pop/Rock, but Floor can do it all: Growling, Belting, Mixed voice, Celtic singing, Rock shouting, Operatic and classical singing Floor does it all..
@@rientsdijkstra4266 But cannot reach the notes of Tarja, nor the dark tone of hers. She lacks the melancholy of a Finn, too. A good singer but certainly not Tarja. Also her operatic vocals sound like a parody.
@turpasauna 😂Floor Jansen's range goes up to F6. That is just as high as Tarja. And compared to Floor's masterfull control of her vocal apparatus, mrs Turunen's voice is coarse and badly controlled. Basically Tarja can do only *one trick* . Floor is 1000x the singer that Tarja is.
Annettte just could not have been able to sing this song this way. It's written for Tarja who has a very operatic voice. Floor can do everything. And please do more NW together.
As this album/tour was inspired by Richard Dawkins, Floor has dna strings on her dress, but as they are Finish, in the colors of the Finish flag. And goddess Floor on extra high heels as tall as the goddess Gaia (not very Dawkins...) It is midsummer in Tampere at that time of the year, so it is not getting completely dark, but the fireworks during the song "The Greatest Show On Earth" are still amazing!
You are right that Tuomas did sing, but only in the very early days of Nightwish. The other male vocalist , not actually playing on this song, is multi instrumentalist, Troy. This particular concert is in Tampere, Finland, which is Nightwish's home turf. Floor introduced the song in English because she is Dutch and Finish is not her strong point. She did learn a little (and has sung in Finnish), because she moved from Holland to Finland, but then moved to Sweden when she married Hannes (the drummer from the Swedish metal band Sabaton).
Yep, It hadn't been played since before the split with Tarja in 2005. Operatic vocals were not in Anette's wheelhouse, so it was one of the songs that got put away. They brought it back, not only because Floor can sing the style, but it also fit in with the Endless Forms Most Beautiful album themes of science and reason. This was the tour for the EFMB album. "Stargazers" is from the 1998 2nd album, Oceanborn, before Marko joined even. Kai Hahto on drums here, this was his first tour with the band. Jukka stepped aside from playing in 2014 due to health issues caused by severe insomnia. So, to hear Tarja, suggest "The Siren" or their cover of "Phantom of the Opera", live from Helsinki 2005 (End of an Era DVD).
Floor does not often sing so much in an operatic way in one song but I think she wants to do justice to Tarja's way of singing this song (she and Tarja are friends). I love all styles she is singing: operatic, folk, pop, jazz, rock, metal, even her death metal growls (very rare with Nightwish because Tuomas the mastermind of Nightwish does not like growling). If I remember well there had been about 24.000 visitors at the Tampere concert (this was said in an interview with Floor), but I do not know the exact date.
Since 2014 there has been a changing in the band. During the rehearsals in 2014 for the album Endless Forms Most Beautiful, the 1st album with Floor, the original drummer Jukka Nevelainen stepped back from the band due to severe insomnia of which he suffered for years (he still works in the management department of the band and we are glad he is doing very well now). He asked his friend Kai Hahto, drummer of the Finnish band Wintersun, to replace him. In 2019 Kai became the official drummer of NW. In this song you see him at work. Kai is a very humble man and an exceptional good drummer. His nicknames are "The Beast" or "The Human Metronome" (I prefer the last name!). If you like to see him happily drumming away🤣🤣 with Wintersun please check out their song "Sons of Winter and Stars". I think you will be blown away! In January 2021 bass guitarist Marko also left the band due to health issues and not being happy with the music industry. He was replaced by Jukka "Jukkis" Koskinen, also from Wintersun. He is now also an official member of NW.
This is from the 2015 tour which featured songs from the first album recorded with Floor, Endless Forms Most Beautiful plus various earlier songs that Anette couldn't sing live either written for Tarja or even some of her own. I heard you mention Final Fantasy but try listening to Weak Fantasy at this Tampere 2015 concert.
You have to remember what is on mainstream radio and Evanescence has been on it since the early 2000s here in the states. When you listen to an artist for the first time, you tend to look for similarities to what is familiar to other music and then you go from there
When this song was released originally it was Jukka on drums. So if you listen to the studio version it is him drumming and Tarja sings @@AceofBadeReacts
Oh, that's a funny shout out! Floor sings for Final Fantasy XIV, Crystal Chronicles: ruclips.net/video/praTQmnqIs4/видео.html You have to check Tarja! She has the double helix outfit... "The Greatest Show on Earth", later in this concert.
I fundamentally disagree. She doesn't have (only) an operatic voice, also she can growl on a death metal note, sing a mainstream song or a rock ballad. Therefore, she is also not like Amy Lee or the other singers you mentioned and never will be. Fortunately. Check this out: *Nightwish - Yours Is An Empty Hope (Live Wembley Arena 2015~Vehicle Of Spirit) *Floor Jansen - O Mio Babbino Caro (Puccini) *Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019 *ReVamp - Disdain (Floor)Live at Graspop (2010) *Adagio - Lara Fabian (cover by Floor Jansen) *Oblivion - M83 (cover by Floor Jansen) *Into The Unknown - Frozen 2 (Cover by Floor Jansen)
It's a Tarja song (I hate it😬) I definitely prefer the more agressiv and newer songs like Weak fantasy live at Tampere 2015. And Tribal live compilation. Really different and more metal 🤘🤘🤘 The highlight are big plateau unicorn shoes 😊
Tarja was purely Operatic, Anette was purely Pop/Rock, but Floor can do it all: Growling, Belting, Mixed voice, Celtic singing, Rock shouting, Operatic and classical singing Floor does it all..

@@rientsdijkstra4266 And Floor goes falsetto instantly because she cannot perform otherwise.

Oh I see the dna strands now
This is from Tampere, and around 22.000 - 24.000 in audience - and outside.
Wembley is inside and half the audience (12.000)

This song was originally released in 1998.
Great reaction, Floor & Nightwish is somthing else. Floor is a great story teller and charismatic too!
Marko the bass guitarist sings a solo at this concert called The Islander, a sea shanty, one of my favorites.
@@richardmead5969 mine too! You know you made it big when Floor is your backup singer lol 😂
Floor's outfit was inspired by the Finnish flag.
Great reaction. Keep them Nightwish bangers come. We will be here. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.
Kai on drums. Yukka went into management of the band caused by his insomnia.
Great reaction 🤘
Keep on going with NW reactions. This concert was really good and I think you will like it.

I am from America and it drives me crazy when Amy Lee comes in as a comparison with Floor but with the music in the States, Amy is all we got, I guess

Awesome. Thank you

Not Jukka on drums its Kai Hatho😎🤗🇧🇻
Oh my bad. I got confused by the band member listing on Wikipedia. I'll edit my document
When this song was released originally it was Jukka on drums. So if you listen to the studio version it is him drumming and Tarja sings @@AceofBadeReacts
I know but miss Jukka. he was the best
124 Spider here. Nightwish Army Soldier present for duty. Hello from Portugal.
Speaking of Final Fantasy,floor did sing on Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
ruclips.net/video/oVdi1We_7fs/видео.htmlsi=HodBV6_mxnJ69mhF
Oh that is just awesome. I think I bought that game recently, too.
Floor doesn't just sing sing Classic/Opera she sings Rock, Metal, Pop etc.
Floor in her intro to the song mentioned Tampere. Apparently you were not paying a lot of attention to that :D
Quite a bit was happening and trying to go back on the video I was using was very difficult for some reason
Greetings from Finland 🤘
If ypu want to hear a voice of a siren and a powerfull performance watch the Deep silent complete from the Wishes to eternity concert dvd😊
You nailed it. Groot. IMHO
Floor also did a soundtrack for “Final Fantasy Chronicles”. She was a little younger.

Oh, that's a funny shout out!

She has the double helix outfit... "The Greatest Show on Earth", later in this concert.
Very beautiful
Maybe a ballad from the same concert? How about
