Metal Vocalist First Time Reaction - Nightwish - 7 Days to the Wolves - Live at Wembley 

Full show I vote for Wacken 2013

I just love Floor's battle cry to the audience at the end of that song. You can tell she's really into this one!

One of the coolest quotes I've read from Marko, he said once Floor came to the band, he didn't have to hold back on his vocals anymore. He could let it rip right there with Floor. Those two together were magic. WHOA

Floor is a beast on stage....in real life though she is an introvert, shy and an HSP (highly sensitive person) That is why she lives with her husband (drummer Sabaton) in a very remote area in a farm, where she has her horses. She needs the serenity of nature to charge again, while she enjoys touring extremely much. She is a person who listenes, not talk. Who is at the end of the row, instead of the front in real life. I know her, we went to the same school. She is sweet and humble. I was and am always flabbergasted if I see her on stage, there is a click and she turns into this self confidend unique metal Goddess. :) Backstage she is Floor again, but she fits like a glove in NW. They have lots of fun.

I always bounce between this, Dead Boy's Poem... and now Shoemaker as being my favorite NW song. 7 Days is one of the first songs I show newbies interested in learning about NW. I just love how it builds... starting mundane... just your everyday rock song, then you get the clean solo, then the breakdown, and by the end... you've got your sword in hand and are ready to jump into battle. That moment when Floor yells, "Wembley... LET'S GO!!!" gets me every time. I've got my sword Floor! I'm ready! Let's goooooooo!!!

That transition and build up from 4:20 and at 5:20 when Floor commands "Wembley let's GOOOOO" and GOOOOO it did and Floors silent scream at 8:47 are three of so many highlights during this rollercoaster ride not forgetting Tuomas windmilling like his life depends on it. Epicness right there on that stage with all the trademark Nightwish transitions and multi layering. Thank you John. 🙏❤️😊👍

Definitely worth to check My opinion Wembley 🔥 Buenos Aires/ Tampere Every concert is different and they delivered unique shows For me Perfect set up of Nightwish 🔥🔥❤🤘❤🔥🔥 She can sing you sweet lullaby and push you from the steps And you don't mind That's our Goddess Floor Jansen ❤🔥🤘🔥❤

I was today years old when I was introduced to Nightwish! My adult metalhead son is gonna be so pissed I not only love them but also found them before he could introduce them to me. Mmmmwwah ha ha. 😜👍🤜🤛

You touched on one of my absolute favorite things about Nightwish; Each and EVERY member of the band is an incredibly skilled artist entirely capable of putting on a stunning performance with themself as the central feature, but NONE of them insist on that. They all set aside personal ego to produce the most incredible music they possibly can. Floor is a WARRIOR QUEEN of vocal talents, but does not hesitate to step into the background and provide supporting vocals for Marko, or in more recent works for Troy singing lead. Marko is a full fledged frontman in his own right, but doesn't hesitate to step into a supporting role. Empu can SHRED, but in a song like this spends nearly the entire time setting the atmosphere and tone for the vocals. Every member of the band goes out of their way to do whatever is needed to make the MUSIC the best it can be.

Yes, thank you. This is one of my favorite Floor performances. It's an underrated song, but it goes so hard. I know it's been said a million times but Floor just slays.

We all know they're talented, but their charm comes from the social contact and respect for each other's craft on stage. They all want the others to shine. And unfortunately you don't see that very often anymore. Seeing them together on stage just makes you wanna hang out with them. And yes, she is a beast on stage. Off stage she's very sweet, modest and down to earth, with a healthy dose of humor. You should check out some of the videos she posted on her channel if you want to judge for yourself. She's done some videos with her horses for instance. You can see how she lives in Sweden. It looks so peaceful there.

Do the WHOLE Wembley show start to finish!!! :D

Thank you for this reaction and analysis 🙂👍 For the full concert, everyone will ask Wacken 2013 with good reasons. I would add Hellfest 2022. It's great, Floor is awesome, it's on RU-vid, and there are songs from their last album. Thank you again and have a great day ! 🙂

Thank you🤘,nice one. Hellfest Nightwish 2022 full concert. Greetings from Finland 🙋‍♀️

You gonna love Nightwish "Song Of Myself" at Wacken 2013

Wacken 2013 is the obvious choice. It's amazing from start to finish, and is Floor's big breakout performance with the band. Floor is definitely a bad-ass on stage, but she's actually very kind and humble off stage. An extremely likeable person.

Wacken 2013 hands down ,it does not get ANY better, 11 songs you have not heard/seen from this amazing concert

her howl at the people near the end is so fierce. she is amazing

Nightwish full concerts to check out in my humble opinion: 1-"Showtime, Storytime" - Wacken 2013 2-"Decades" - Buenos Aires 2018 3-"Endless Forms Most Beautiful World Tour" - Wembley 2015 4-"End of an Era" - Helsinki 2005 5-"Endless Forms Most Beautiful World Tour" - Tampere 2015 6-"From Wishes To Eternity" - Tampere 2000 Cheers from Buenos Aires!

Such an awesome song and performance

This song has a special place in my heart !!! Not just because wolf is Estonian national animal and my spirit animal, but the windmill battle between Tuomas and Floor .... Plus, Floor's inner Wolf Howl !!! holy mother of Odin !!! Floor has 3 distinct styles. Head banging(straight forward, then back), hair whip(almost like cracking a bullwhip) and the Windmill(continuous 360 degree revolutions). Why Windmill? Well she is Dutch. Troy is playing an Electric Bouzouki ( A musical instrument popular in Greece. It is a member of the long-necked lute family, with a round body with a flat top and a long neck with a fretted fingerboard.). I have seen this song Live in my home country Estonia, although it was without Marko (Marko left the band, but now we have a new Bass Player Jukka "Gentle Giant" Koskinen), but Troy really steps up and harmonizes with Floor like never before. Still getting goosebumps, even if I write in here. And that Emppu solo... He just teases you with that (just look at that grin he is making). The title is taken from a King's novel called “Wolves of the Calla”. But the conception of the book has nothing to do with the text behind the song, it is far more inspired by the film "Dead Poets' Society". The main idea is - one must live his life the best he can, to strive for his aims, because the wolves are always 7 days behind you and they will catch you if your life is not of full value... and then you will be only dead meat. That's what Tuomas said in one interview some time ago. Howl and thank you!!! NWSU/FloorFan 🤘🐺🤘.

Tampere 2015. Great sound, open air with a surprise at the very end of the show, you get to hear a solo Marco song, some old stuff, and - like a cherry on top of that all - Floor´s outfit and makeup are PERFECT.

This is My Song, as chosen for me by my wife. I'm inclined to think disaster is at the door, she says "you've got 7 days - do you want to spend them cowering, or do you want to actually live a bit?" (And it's working, she hasn't had to say it in a while!) My favourite concert is Wacken 2013, but if you feel you've done too many of those already how about Decades - Buenos Aires? Both good choices!

This one is always in my ever changing top 5 Nightwish songs.

Massive song, even better performance. I just love 7GTTW in the 2015 Wembley version. So freaking amazing in every sense. The build-up, instrumentation, light effects and fireworks, the overall sound quality, and of course Floor's and Marco's voices that are so powerful, precise, and perfectly matched. Definitely one of my favorite NW live performances, maybe even my most favorite one. 🔥🤘 Thanks for this reaction.

Nice reaction! Definitely one of my favourites too. Floor certainly isn’t a diva off stage. She comes across as very humble. When she talks to her audience between numbers in her solo shows she is very funny. The instrument that Troy is playing is an Irish bouzouki.

Wembley 2015 (Worldtour) or Tampere 2015 (Worldtour and Anniversary-Show!) or Buenos Aires 2018 (Decades World Tour) or 2022 Hellfest (first Tour without Marco the singing Bassist) well, everybody would say Wacken 2013, but this is soooo often played and reacted i can´t count ... :) and, the "or´s" can be replaced with a "followed by" anytime ;)

Good one. One of my favourites.

Wacken 2013 Is of course probably THE concert, but Wembley Arena 2015 Is also great and has The Poet and the Pendulum in It, which even on its own Is enough of a reason to watch. Tampere 2015 has the lovely The Islander moment with Marko and the most grandiose rendition of The Greatest Show on Earth, so any one Is a good pick, really.

Wembley 2015 full show❤ More energy you can't get. And single reaction: The Islander, Weak fantasy and The greatest show on earth at Tampere 2015. Please don't miss SHUDDER BEFORE THE BEAUTIFUL Wembley 2015 even when you decide to play another concert. Great guitar and keyboard battle!

One of my favorites live....it's sooooo EPIC. love how the mood keeps chancing during the song along with lyrics. "LEAVE THE CITY OF FOOLS, CHOOS THE PATH LESS TRAVELED BY!" Yeah!

Greatest show on earth is my fav, long but what a ride

Great reaction......I am semi new to the band, hard to believe they have been around as long as they have been and I just heard about them. As far as my favorite song goes it's pretty much the last one I listened too, no such thing as a bad NW song....but I really love "Slaying the dreamer" ...SO heavy. My latest find was "Elan"...such a beautiful song.

Best full concert: Buenos Aires 2018. But this is my No 3 Nightwish song/performance Floor is the nicest person in the world. As a HSP she really feels for people

Great reaction! Troy is playing an Irish Bouzouki. It is part of the mandolin family. One of my favorite Nightwish songs. Probably top 6. Title is taken from the Steven King book The Wolves of Calla from the Dark Tower series but the lyrics aren't related. Wacken is the go to standard for whole concerts to watch and it is pretty magical but I vote for Wembley because it is pretty awesome and has all 3 of my top 3 Nightwish songs; Poet and the Pendulum, Greatest show on Earth (great performance but I like Tampere better because IMO it is even more epic), and Ghost Love Score plus some other bangers like Shudder Before the Beautiful and Yours is an Empty Hope.

Marko said in an interview that he loves singing with Floor because he doesn’t have to hold back. Also, I heard another reactor call Floor a Stage General.” She definitely is.

Markos bass is a Warwick/Vampire , Troy is playing a Irish Bouzouki , Floors inner Wolf comes out in this song .

Love this one, right up there in my top 5. Full concerts : Wembley, Tampere, Hell Fest, Buenos Aires, so many to choose from. Of course Wacken.

3 concerts come to mind, Wacken 2013, Tampere 2015 or Wembley 2013. I think as a whole Wacken is the best followed by Wembley and Tampere but Tampere has the best version of The Greatest Song on Earth so you really can't go wrong with any of them. Tampere has the added feel too of being at home on Finland for them and it was the first time Floor's parents watched her live with Nightwish.

YES!! SHE IS PERFECT!!!

Favorite song next to Song Of Myself

This song and the whole wishmaster album are some of my fave nightwish music! Though I've been more a fan of Floor since her band After Forever then truly been a member of the nightwish army...

Unmistakable Nightwish, I like that every song is so different, they are so versatile. Utterly professional. As for Floor and Marco harmonies, epic.

Can you imagine Floor in a Hollywood blockbuster, playing the role of a supervillain?

FLOOR is a BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhhh, John, John…your favorite until your next one😂🤣 or whichever one you happen to be listening to at the moment! I think Floors roar at the crowd towards the end pretty much embodies the piece. And doesn’t she look like The Predator from the original, when it faces off against Dutch?

Wembley is a great concert everyone does Wacken but all concerts are great

well most will probably say Wacken 2013, and its legendary no doubt; I would recommend Hellfest 2022, its more recent, has songs from the latest album 'Human Nature', a fantastic setlist, and this legendary, epic moment when Floor performs 'Shoemaker' Live...omg I tear up just by thinking of it. Have fun and enjoy it !!🤘🤘🤘🐺

My top full shows are Wacken ‘13 Showtime Storytime tour Wembly ‘15 Vehicle of Spirt tour Buenos Aires ’18 Decades tour - lots of old school heavy shit and soo good Hellfest ‘22 Human Nature tour

yup top 3 for me.full concert hell yea

I vote for WEMBLEY!!!!!

There are several amazing full concerts (Wacken 2013, Buenos Aires, Wembley,..). However I would reccomend Deichbrand 2022.

Honestly, this song, and especially this performance, is in my top 5 Nighwtish songs. Their engagement, amazing composition, tempo shifts and sound quality make it so epic.

🤗🍒🤘🏻 well done again John

Best concerts to watch are showtime, storytime (wacken 2013) and Decades: Live in Buenos Aires 2019. Both great, but also different. I think the last one gives you more surprises. But don't know if you are looking for that 😂

Floor's sister Irene does backing vocals for Ayreon. They both have performed on Ayreon sometimes together. When Floor was in her first band After forever Irene and Floor performed a song called: Who I Am. To answer your earlier question 1. Wacken 2013 2. Wembley 2015 then Buenos Aires 2019 and Tampere 2015

Deichbrand 2022 was really amazing. Please watch the first song Noise. Unfortunately but there's no good audio for the full concert. Video is great.

@JohnReavesLive....is this a trick question about which concert, lol. It is like picking your favorite child. That said, I am fond of the 2018 Buenos Aires show. The fans are just awesome and make it a really cool experience. I would go Wacken and Tampere 2015 as my second choices. Great work and thanks for what you do.

Thx for this - good as always… 👍‼️ Full concert? Do it in this order: Wacken 2013, Wembley 2015, Tampere 2015… 🏆

My favorite Nightwish song is whichever one I'm listening to at the moment....lol

Great reaction, as for full concerts...Decades Tour in Buenos Aires 2018 is awesome, so is Wembley 2015 where this performance is taken from. Then there is Tampere 2015 and of course, Wacken 2013 (but that's the one everyone does.. so chose another I'd say) HellFest 2022 would also be good, but shorter cause it was a festival. So for me Buenos Aires please, also because of the awesome audience. Floor is on stage a warrior with a larger than life persona, in reality she is very down to Earth, like they all are. In this band they leave their ego's behind before getting o9n the stage. And since you like the grit and growl Floor an put out, you should see her in true beast mode.... ReVamp- Disdain (live at Graspop ) this was her previous band before Nightwish and she was definitely in an angry period then 🖤🤘

I love the lyrics, tempo and Floors tone 🤘🤘

The recent Hellfest tour they did, would be an amazing concert to react to!

In interviews she’s very humble and a beautiful person

I vote for Wembley 2015 concert

her offstage personality 9is that of a kind gentle laid back woman/ Hubble vibes in fact

I would go with Wembley 2015 as full show reaction or Buenos Aires 2018.

Floor looks like the goddess that she is!🤘🎸

If you can find it, they did a virtual world concert during covid. Excellent.

You should really look at Ghost Love Score Live at Wacken 2013. It is epic and one of the best performances of that song.

Floor says: This is my one favourite song… Troy plays Bazouka, Greece instrument… (guitar,mandolin, balalaikka)❤ Lov y reaction…

4:46 "Is this, where heroes and cowards part ways...?" Followed by Tuomas calling the crowd to join them, like an alpha male wolf would call his pack, the the alpha female goes 5:30 WEMBLEY LET'S GO! Which unleashed full madness in the crowd, headbanging like crazy. This is a monster of a song.

You gotta do Bless the child live at Wachen 2013 and then Ghetsemane livenin Buenos Aires 2018. They are amazing as well!!!

Yaaass! Finally Nightwish again! 🤩🥰 I'd suggest reacting to either the full Wacken 2013 or Wembley 2015 concert..or maybe Tampere? ..or Buenos Aires? All that can be found on YT are amazing tbh 😂

I wish I could afford that bass.

All of their concerts are great and it would be impossible to pick which is the best. I'm a fan of this one, it's my home country but also for the little bits in between and it is just amazing! 😁 & days to the wolves is one of my top fav songs but then so are a lot of theirs, it's hard to chose 😃

Yes, they got the essential "Medal Mandolin" (Irish Bouzouki this time, but close enough). This is a very powerful and well staged live performance. And Floor on stage is a true "Warrior Queen". But actually she is very humble, kind and extra sensitive person, who lives with her family far in the Swedish Woods.💗👸

One of my favourite songs from Nightwish ❤ thank you!!! And this performance from Wembley is crazy!🔥 And Floor's voice🫠 I love the album version too🥰 This song was from Dark Passion Play so it was originally sang by Anette. For a full concert I want to vote for End of an Era (that's with Tarja). I just love it. But I do love most of their live concerts that I have seen. I would love to see a full concert reaction from you, where you haven't seen that many performances from😊

Dude, Pick one... Wacken 2013, Wembly Arena, Tampere, Buenos Aries.. I think you would really like "Weak Fantasy" live @ Tampere....

Troy’s ‘metal mandolin’ is a bouzouki.

uber comments love what u do i suggest 2015 in tampere for full concert it was blast and i was in aduannce for that 1 =)

"She looks like a warrior.." yep, you'd follow her into battle armed only with a spoon and count yourself lucky!

Wacheb 2013 show, Tampere 2015, Wembley 2015 and Buenos Aires 2018 are the most epoc and qualitative. There are new ones like Hellfest 2022 for the tracks of the new album... but for that I would recommend you to listen the latest album Human.||.Nature. It is SPECTACULAR. Hugs from Romania near war torn Ukraine. BTW... a War song to donis 10th man down from Buenos Aires 2018 Show!!!

I really think you do not enough NW😁 , you are great on reacting

You can't go wrong with Waken 2013, Wembley, or the Tampere concert. Buenos Aries Decades is also fantastic and has some older stuff. If I were pushed, I'd say Waken, but Wembley is hard to beat as it has music written for Floor included, whereas Waken is all music written for the previous 2 singers.

Gotta do ghost love score, my favorite masterpiece by them

Troy is playing an electric bouzouki on this song.

Would love to see you react to the band AVATAR and their song Napalm (Live from Ages) OR Let it Burn (Loudwire Exclusive)

Nightwish - ShowTime StoryTime

Everyones given you all the info about what concerts to watch ...... The only thing i can tell you is thats " GROOT" on Tuomas's Keyboard

For full concert I guess Wacken 2013 is always an amazing choice for sure!!!! Then Wembley or Tampere, for the show but also cause new drummer. And then Hellfest cause most recent, with then also new bass player

Other great vocalist to check out is Tommy Johansson!! Try his cover if Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody!

Definitely Wacken 2013!!! Don't miss Marko introducing Floor at the beginning... And Emppu cutting off Floor's in-ears on "I want my tears back"!!

This shows why this band will never be the same without Marko.

Wacken 2013 is the classic, but the Tampere and Wembley gigs shouldn't be missed either.

Hi! If you want to check out more metal bands, try the Swiss band Zeal and Ardor. They are quite unique. I would suggest their song Götterdämmerung.

In your own time if necessary check out an interview with Floor. You will be no less impressed by her offstage as on!

Not my favorite Nightwish song, but one of my favorite live performance of theirs for sure. 🤘🏻

Metal mandoline FTW!

You wish for full concert suggestions? Well... Of course Nightwish Wacken 2013, Tampere & Wembley 2015, Bueno Aires 2018 and Hellfest 2022 are must see! I recommend you a risky blind reaction to this one live: Heilung - "Lifa" Live at Castlefest 2017 full concert (this is not Nightwish AT ALL)
