To draw in more metal fans: Sleep Token's Take Me Back to Eden came out a month ago and has 2,5 million views. If you like it, then you should do The Summoning (came out 6 months ago, has 8,4 million views) and Chokehold. And Will Ramos' covers of Sleep Token songs. He's the vocalist of Lorna Shore. Lorna Shore might be a bit heavy for you, but To the Hellfire has 16 million views in 2 years, and it didn't really start to blow up until this year. If you do the Pain Remains trilogy, do them all back to back in the same video. And have the lyrics pulled up, for all their songs. Bad Omens had one of the most successful metal albums of last year, The Death of Peace of Mind. Each video has about 7-14 million views. Their newest single Just Pretend came out a month ago and has 3,5 million views. Some reactor channel metal "classics": In This Moment - Whore (Came out 9 years ago, has 124 million views.) Jinjer - Pisces Live Session (Came out 6 years ago, has 76 million views.) And I just have to: Bloodywood - Dana Dan They're an independent band and this is from their 2nd album, which came out last year. The video has 4,2 million views. (Put the captions on, if you react to them. Some of the lyrics are not in English and captions have a translation.) And it has rap in it.
continue with wacken bro, everdream, storytime and bless the child, tuomas holapainen, is the songwriter/composer, he's called the metal mozart, empuu has the best solo's in the business checkout floor's solo stuff too, covers of alone, shallow, oblivion m83, and her stuff, paragon, calm, she would be perfect in voice over animated films imo
The bassist/second vocalist of three in the band at this time is Marko Hietala. He is sometimes known as the father of metal in Finland, which is no small thing as Finland has more metal bands per capita than any other country in the world. Marko solos on some Nightwish songs including High Hopes, Kiss While Your Lips are Still Red, The Islander and Endlessness. In addition, his duets with all three of the female singers are wonderful. Marko has headed his own band Tarot, is a part of the supergroup Northern Kings and has his own album out in both Finnish and English titled Pyre of the Black Heart. He left the band a couple of years ago due to some problems with depression but is better now and out performing a great solo act of his own.
10 years ago this legendary show was going down in wacken, germany. Legends will forever tell stories about it. Perfect from start to finish. Do "ever dream" from the same show, you will completely love it.
Floor is amazing! She can sing anything from super clean operatic style to metal belts and grit. Great reaction to a fantastic group! On a side note, she is married to the drummer from Sabaton. You should check out some Sabaton, too.
Hey again, Ian. And yes, thank you for the shoutout to the Nightwish Army... as we do call ourselves. Nightwish Army Phoenix subscriber here for you. Man, this was another fantastic reaction to our beloved Nightwish with our 6'1" (barefoot) Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yan-sen) on female lead vocals. By the way, you are so right. Marko, the bassist who can also play guitar, has an incredible metal voice as well. Loved it. Keep the Nightwish LIVE reactions coming. Thank you.
Jukka Nevalainen on drums - mad pirate, time-lord, beat-master! No longer performing due to chronic insomnia and associated illness but still a part of Nightwish behind the scenes. His replacement, Kai Hahto, was hand-picked by him and had been his techie so he fills the role VERY well! ... and Marko, well... GOAT..... see "High Hopes" from their 2004 gig! Marko suffered a botched throat surgery way back and almost lost is voice completely but.... You heard it!
This is from the same show as Ghost Love Score you reacted to previously. There are a total of 15 (16?) songs and every one of them are worth doing a reaction video for.
NWA pa division checking in . Yes Tuomas Holopainen (Keyboards) is the Metal Mozart . he is the founder, writer, composer of Nightwish. there would be no Nightwish without him .
Yes, Tuomas (keys) is the main composer of music and lyrics for Nightwish. A very unique and special metal band and one of the best live bands in the world. Nightwish members play exclusively for the song, with no egos in the way. Loved it Ian. I am not much of a Ra p fan, but you musical composition is much more interesting than most Rap I have heard. Best wishes for your personal success! 🥂🥂
"chills all over my body": I know it is getting old, but that was a genuine Floorgasm🤓 (and the word is a combination of Floor and eargasm, not orgasm, although....)
There are reasons Tuomas Holopainen the keyboard player is called the “Metal Mozart”! Floor Jansen the incomparable front woman is called the “Valkyrie Queen”!
I sure hope you'll continue reacting to them. They are so versatile and so very skilled. The lyrics are superb. Your favorite Nightwish song is the one you are listening to. Every time. Subscribed to follow your journey!
Ah, basist . I recommend their tribute for Pink Floyd if you want more vocals. If you want some composition greatness dive into The greatest show on earth or Poet and Pendelum. But, dig some background info first with these two.

Gabriel likely dropped by already in your first Nightwish reaction and told which songs are great to react to but I'll still put my spoon on the pot. Floor is their third singer and I absolutely adore her and love the Floor era of Nightwish. That said there is some songs from the previous singers era that just are iconic for them specifically and some just honestly work better with them. The first lead was Tarja and she is very iconic for many. Her performance with Nightwish "phantom of the opera" live is worth to check, Marco is her duet partner in that one.
Emotional song for you: Twisted Coil(Arjen Lucassen project) - Guild Machine. Or the live version from the Ayreon Electric Castle concert. Enjoy your journey!

🤩👍💥💯🎼 I bet my wide butt you're about to get surprised with the "unecpected" what they're providing on stage, one way or another, in case you're about to continue on this path with this magical band... 😉 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
They don't give the title of "Metal Mozart" to just anyone 😉. Also I highly suggest having the lyrics available to follow along with (or use the captions when able) just to appreciate the poetry and beauty of the songs.
also it`s ROCK despite the strive for separating it. metal,alternative ,grunge,whatever am old enough to know rock when I hear it. Nightwish is top 3 rock band all time. prove me wrong. give me your top bands Ian or even NW clan
As an old metal & rock fan, I know you could fill an encyclopedia with all the meta genres, subgenres and sub-subgenres.. but in the end, there's only two categories: Shit i like and shit i don't like as much 😂
The keyboard player, Tuomas, (2•O•mas) 3 syllables, accent on the O, was the main songwriter, meaning he wrote about 95 to 98% of all songs including lyrics. Bassist/singer, Marko, who contributed to whatever was needed and even wrote and performed entire songs, left the band leaving Tuomas to be the lone composer of 100% music and lyrics.
bro the valkyrie queen can hit the G5 pretty esily, the bassist/backup singer is marko hietala, he retired in 2022, they have a new bassist but no backup singer, marko was with NW 21 years, i call him odin, checkout everdream, storytime and bless the child from this same concert, one of the best rock n metal concerts of alltime imo, right there with rainbow's munich 1978 concert
"that was Crazy" That was D6 Welcome back to Nightwish Nightwish Medical Tent Dentist, Doorman, and Facial Reconstruction/De-Melt-Treatment Team Member.
Deep Purple and Uriah heep both did symphonic rock albums in the 70s. saw both twice in Frankfurt. over 2 and half years. Uriah sucked in concert, guess best studio or album. Deep Purple was awesome. Leds stairway and lynardars free bird both copies Child In Time by Purple. FYI for the youngsters.
Yeah, they both have a range of 3 octaves and they each covered the whole thing during that slide up and down. Next check out Everdream. Oh, same concert. Not the studio. Sorry.
Hi Ian,I enjoy a lot rock music and all new artists ,I have one request if you can react is about new artist for me and I enjoy the mesage of his songs ,please react to Tom Mac Donald - God Mode and another of his songs is The System, greattings from Spain 😊
@@IanTaylorCreations I think it was in a Romanticide wail at a different concert where she topped out at an F6 and she's doing that without resorting to a whistle register.
Be careful, one day the same thing could happen to you as it happened to Alex Hefner and you end up as a metal head. haha And if you ask me, that is how it should be! 😉
You should feel free to break down bars in Nightwish, Ian. They've always got really great lyrics. I know Gabriel hooked you up with a list or whatever, and I do hope you look to that for inspiration, but I think you'd really dig this one, and I'd like to bring you out of Wacken 2013 for a bit. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S8E3L7ggLMM.html
