New video 🎶 Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019 | First Time Reaction ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5xOrftgRygw.html
Tuomas Holopainen on the keyboards write pretty much all the music and lyrics, he is the mastermind behind Nightwish. Floor the singer is the 3rd singer for Nightwish and she can sing anything (even the phonebook;) )
Great 2nd reaction to Nightwish. All the songs at this concert were actually written for their previous 2 singers. In fact, Floor was still a replacement singer. She had replaced Anette, the previous singer, mid way through Nightwish's USA leg of their World Tour. This concert was towards the end of that tour and just 10 months since Floor had taken over as vocalist! Shortly after this concert, Nightwish announced that Floor was officially joining Nightwish as their new lead singer. Troy, a multi-instrumentalist who you haven't seen yet, also joined at the same time. He does appear on a few songs from this very concert. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️
They may have been written for other singers, but floor killed it and made all of them her own. I could not listen to another vocalist doing these songs now.
She is on the same level as Freddie Mercury, that's how iconic she is. I would love to have seen the two of them together, and the two bands together. omg could you imagine the creations of music, and the sounds?!! It would be at least as spine tingling as Freddie & Montserrat Caballe. Floor was asked who was the one person she would like to sing a duet with, and she said Freddie. If you watch closely, you'll see that some of her movements are similar to his. Just fantastic way to nod to him.
Nightwish just announced today that after next summer they won't be anymore performing live for personal reasons. I hope everyone who wants still can participate to a Nightwish concert before july :(
Tuomas (keys) is the main composer of the music and lyrics for Nightwish. You will find that the studio version is sung by the previous vocalist of Nightwish. This is one of the reasons we all suggest to react to live performances. Floor has recorded 2 records with Nightwish in 2015 & 2020. They also have new one coming in early 2024. I think you may also appreciate some of Floor solo performances. She has a brand new solo record coming out tomorrow, called "Paragon". Much softer style, but still Floor Jansen. One of my favorites along with many others from this amazing band. If you keep reacting we will be here to share the journey Inna! Love the big beautiful smile and those gorgeous eyes! Lots of fun to rock with you. Hope to see you again very soon. My heart goes out for your native homeland.💔💔 So courageous and fighting for their freedom from tyranny. 🙏🙏
Hello Inna, you are really at the beginning of a very long and beautiful journey. And we travel and enjoy with you. Nice to see you so excited. We've all had. and still.🤘🤘
The reason why Floor looks like a goddess, is because she is a goddess 😊. Great reaction to a fantastic Nightwish song. Look forward to seeing the next one.Greetings from the Nightwish Army (Sydney Australia Division) 🇦🇺🤘
@innamusic, I’m 60 years old and not long after I discovered Nightwish(also Ghost Love Score Wacken) they became my all time favorite band and lead singer, so you’re not alone in being captured instantaneously by this one of a kind band and lead singer.🤟🤟✌️✌️🇨🇦
It is so great to see you so enthusiastic about the music. That is what music does to me as well. When I find a new band I like I get all hyped and want to listen to all their songs every day. Your positive mood is contageous! And you wanting to be there in the crowd... that is the place to experience a band for real. I always find it amazing to be at a concert and feeling the music. Thank you for another great reaction. ~ vals
Love to have a time machine and be at this concert , and the Pink Floyd Pulse tour in London 1994 . The keyboard player writes and composes all of Nightwish songs
I think Nightwish would be even more popular worldwide if their music sounded good on low quality speakers, too. Most people do not have high quality speakers so they should use high quality headphones but typically do not have those either.
As I said the second time you react to Nightwish I will subscribe, just have! Great reaction, don’t stop as you have long way to go as Nightwish is massive! 🏴
Hi! I like your first 2 Nightwish reactions! Welcome in the Nightwish Family! Welcome in the Nightwish Army! I'm looking forward for your next Nightwish reactions! I wish you a great weekend!
Hello I have some info on Floor Jansen for you here. She is married to Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of the Swedish power metal band Sabaton. Together they have a daughter. ( Freja ) Floor Jansen is a soprano, with a range of more than 3 octaves (C3 to F6). Re-singing style ranges from opera to screams and grunts. She usually sings in English, in addition she has also sung songs in Dutch, German, Spanish, Finnish, Latin, Italian and Swedish. 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. Greetings from the Netherlands.
I want my tears back now Nightwish. Acoustic version of. How is the heart incredible! Nemo live. The greatest show on Earth pick any Nightwish live album or live concert and enjoy being a member of the Nightwish army your friend in Oregon Mike.
Floor Jansen is the third (and final) Nightwish singer. You’ve noticed she absolutely loves singing and always has a big grin on her face! I suppose Ever Dream from the same Wacken concert is next.😊
As listed before for you..... Welcome, to Nightwish. :) Here is my list for you......but first..... Floor Jansen (pronounced Yansen) who is actually Dutch and the 3rd of the bands lead singers. By the way....she is 6'1" and known as the Valkyrie Goddess. Marco - Bass and vocals (wait until you hear him sing with Floor and solo....) This band is going to rock your world dude. Emppu - Lead guitar (jokester and very deliberative in his playing) Jukka on drums, but had to stop due to insomnia (but is still behind the scenes with Nightwish), new drummer is Kai who was the drummer with Wintersun.

Hello Inna and greetings from Czech Republic. Finaly someone who is actually naturally beatiful and also enjoying songs. I dont know if i should watch Nightwish or you. I know Nightwish since 1996 when they began. But your smile and seeying you having fun hits different that other reaction videos. Thank you and you earn new sub 🙂👍👍😉
Keep reacting to them and we will keep watching! Many of us discovered them as you have and went through these same feelings. And yes, see them live at your first opportunity. My expectations for seeing them live were through the roof and they still exceeded them by a mile.
I’ve just started watching your reaction videos and I’m enjoying them very much. I like your reactions and expressions and appreciate that you rewind a bit after a pause. Love from Canada 🇨🇦. Ciao!
Hello again, Inna. Nightwish Army Phoenix subscriber here. I am very glad that you have decided to continue reacting to these Nightwish live performances with our 6'1" Valkyrie goddess, Floor Jansen (Yan-sen) on lead vocals. Nightwish is the rare band whose live performances are even better than their studio versions. Loved your reaction.
What an enchanting reactor. Subscribed. Some variety for future ones: Dark Chest of Wonders (Wacken opener); Seven Days to the Wolves (Wembley 2015) Shudder before the Beautiful (Wembley 2015 opener) Gethsemane (Buenos Aires 2018) Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean (Buenos Aires 2018) I want my Tears back (Buenos Aires 2018) and oirginal Nightwish from 2005 - The Phantom of the Opera (Hartwall Arena Helsinki). Enjoy.
Your comment on the previous video about them looking engaged on the stage - I don't think I've ever seen a video of them on stage (sadly, I've yet to experience actually being at one of their concerts as I only found them myself about six months ago) where they don't look like they are having great fun! When this video was made, Floor was still quite a new addition to the band and was still making her mark. Ten years on, she still has that same smile on her face every time she takes to the stage. This is a band that loves doing what it does. I even saw a video clip earlier today of them in their concert in Osaka from last night. Floor Jansen has had a tough year, being diagnosed with breast cancer last October, which mercifully she had her operation and is now cancer free and things are looking up. Only a few days ago she announced she was pregnant with her second child. In the Osaka concert, she is very visibly pregnant, and was still dancing around the stage having the time of her life. She also released her own solo album yesterday of music that has a very different sound to what you hear with her Nightwish stuff. Nightwish is a band full of talent, but they also seem to be really down-to-earth people. Every interview I've ever seen with Floor, she comes across as one of the most humble, genuinely lovely of people you could ever hope to meet. You ask "how can it get any better?". Ohhh...... just wait.... You're just getting started. 😉
Nice that you enjoy my favorite band. It's really fun to watch your reaction! Nightwish is really something special, far beyond their genre, some of the best that the music world currently has to offer! And they don't just have a few good songs, they have a lot of "best songs" and everyone is different. Tuomas, the keyboarder, writes practically all Nightwish songs. Hope you still have a lot of fun with Nightwish! greetings from Switzerland
I am 67 years old and a lifelong Pink Floyd fan, I came across Nightwish as they did a cover of Pink Floyds High Hopes. I stil prefer Pink Floyd's original performance but I was surprised how good Nightwish's metal version was. I have been a fan ever since. Pink Floyd are still my favourite band (maybe it is difficult to teach an old dog new tricks) but Nightwish is a close second.Love your reactions, your energy and smile I am also a big fan of yours now.😀
Tuomas Holopainen (the keyboard player) composes the music and writes the lyrics to almost all Nightwish's songs. I have been following them for maybe two years (I am 73 year-old male, never had been a metal fan. Now I can't stop listening). I am just recently starting to appreciate Tuomas' abilities and his importance to the band and its popularity. It is Tuomas' music and score which leads us to love Floor so much (although she is amazing singing covers of other artists, or her own compositions, or Phantom of the Opera, or Vilja Lied on Beste Zangers, et al.). There is a documentary, "Making the Album Endless Forms Most Beautiful" you should watch. Set aside a couple of hours and you will learn a lot about the band. There are other documentaries which are very informative. One is "Please Learn the Set-list in 48 hours" where you learn how Floor joined the band. Listen to "The Life and Times of Scrooge", a full album written by Tuomas, based upon a graphic novel about Scrooge McDuck (a Disney animated character). The music is astonishing. It is a beautiful movie soundtrack. Unfortunately, the movie hasn't ever been made. HOWEVER, Nightwish did make a movie. "Imaginarium". It was made before Floor was with the band, and the singer who appears in the movie is Anette Olzon. It is not a musical. It is about dementia. I think. Pretty sure Tuomas wrote the script. I have wandered far enough. You have a beautiful journey ahead of you. Please enjoy it. At least you are starting young.
Floor trained in theatre trained in Classical/Opera trained at a School of Rock. Can sing in many languages such as Dutch, Spanish, German, Italian, English etc. Floor can sing in many Genre's Like Opera/Classical, Pop, Rock, Metal etc Floor sung many songs from Age 16 in her first band After Forever, Revamp, Northward, Nightwish and her solo Album just released. Floor has performed with many bands here's just a few Epica, Ayreon etc Floor was on a few T.v. music shows but the one that got her into the idea of trying more Pop sounding music was The Beste Zangers ( Best Singers ) and During Covid lockdowns Performed cover songs at hom in her own Recording studio including songs like Alone from Heart and Let it go from The movie Frozen just for her Daughter. Thank you for your time.
6:23 Like Floor arriving to bring a new world alongside the obliteration of an older evil world. Like fully replacing darkness with light but in the most brutal way possible
We understand - i discovered them over 3 years ago and have been obsessed ever since lol. Look for Gabriel in the comments; likely on your first reaction. He is the Nightwish Army Herald / General and will have put the history of the band, facts, and good quality links. Nightwish Army BC, Canada 😊
Tuomas Holopainen, they keyboardist, is the main composer and songwriter. Hes often referred to as the Metal Maestro. And she IS a Goddess. Shes our Valkyrie Goddess.
Tuomas, the keyboardist, is their primary composer, but different band members will often write a song or two. He often draws lyrics from other sources such as the poetry of Richard Dawkins for Endless Forms Most Beautiful, and Walt Witman for Song of Myself. Marko, the basist, took the lead writing a few songs, most notably The Islander, and Troy, who plays pipes, several varieties of guitar type instruments and does vocals, took the lead on songs like Pan and My Walden if memory serves. When Floor took over lead vocal duties she didn't just read the sheet music and copy her predecessors delivery though, she has her own unique approach to each piece and added her own take on how to perform them.
Funny, it's seemingly becomes everybody's favorite band haha! I saw them live in Minneapolis last year, my favorite concert ever and I've been to a million, rock on! 🤘
Since you were raised in Italy you might already know of this band. Lacuna Coil. They are a gothic metal band with powerful and amazing female lead vocal. Actually she shares lead vocal with a guy but most songs she is lead.
There are 3 kessons to kearn from this: 1 Floor is amazing 2. Tuomas Holopainen is a musical genius and 3. The core of all life is a limitless chest of tales
"How could it get any better?" Haha. Oh, that won't last long, as I am commenting the second you said that before you heard the song. Lol. You'll be saying that before each new Nightwish song you check out, and each time, you'll be wondering the same thing. 🙂 Having said that, this might be my favorite Nightwish song. Nemo, from Wacken 2013, and Everdream are right there. Nemo makes me really emotional for some reason, in the second half of it, and Everdream is just impossibly good. Everdream Floor had said once that it was the most challenging for her to sing. Storytime though is what I fell in love with. That chorus is so amazing. I welcome anything more from Nightwish - especially that you fell in love with them also! You mention Floor's stage presence, and you're right. It's very strong. Saw them live and she was stunning. She made you feel like she was there for you, and when she asked you to clap or cheer, you did. You had to. She has such stage presence and command, but command in a really good way.
I did the same thing when I started watching them as well. I have many Nightwish on my playlist and I always try and get the live versions there as well. Studio is good but with this band there is just another layer live…imho

Great reaction Inna! I've seen this happen so many times on youtube. A reactor gets a suggestion to watch Nightwish, they've never heard of them before and then the band rapidly moves up to become one of their favorites. It's an amazing thing to see! Here in the US, many people have never even heard of this music genre (Symphonic Metal) before and get blown away by the music. Two songs that I like are I Want My Tears Back and Romanticide. I believe they will be added to your playlist also when you hear them. Love your channel!
Look at the first comment on your reaction to Ghost Love Score, by Gabriel Bardac... He gives a good rundown on the band and a link to a comprehensive guide to their work on RU-vid. I fell down the Nightwish rabbit hole myself about half a year ago. I can say that my only regret is that I didn't find them years ago. I love this band!
Hello from Sweden. ❤ Glad you like Fantastic Nightwish. 😊. Floor is the best singer. She has lots of her own stuff , you can listen to. From "Best zangers", And all the amazing covers she did at home, during covid. Plus just released her own album.. Tanks.
Be aware there are 2 versions of storytime. This version sung by Floor, and the music video version sung by rhe previous singer. You'll have to decide which version you like best. I'm biased!
just for you to know, as others said, this concerts songs where written for the two singers before. So if you add them to your spotify list, it could be another voice you will hear
