Nightwish - High Hopes (LIVE) / Pink Floyd Cover REACTION!!! 

This is the reason Marko is such a huge loss for Nightwish. He brings so much passion to everything he does. He is truly unique.

In my opinion this is one the best performances of Marko ever, if not THE best. A great song by Pink Floyd already, and what Nightwish did here is just amazing.😄👍

Nightwish is an EXPERIENCE!

EMPUU....... MAGIC FINGERS............... What a fucking INCREDIBLE BAND. I been there since 1999... No JOKE!!!!!.... 20+ years of fucking amzing music. I seen them 5 times. :))) I WILL GO MORE!.

Emppu in a velvet suit, shredding the purple guitar. Priceless.

That marching beat with Emppu's first solo!!!! Jukka rocks! That second solo!!!!! Nightwish Rocks! Now you know why I love this version!!!!!!!

Not a cover. A tribute. A thank you. An homage. This hits my emotions every time I hear it. Who else than Nightwish could match the tone of the original so closely?

Darling it's not a cover a tribute .Nightwish BEST live band today 🤘🤘🤘🤘

And the best part is... Jukka played this concert while having a hardcore migraine :o . At 3.14 Tuomas nodded to the left, to give a signal to Emppu to check how Jukka feels. He did that. at 5.08 you can see Emppu jumping onto the stage from the drum platform.

And this is why the whole world is crying Marko's retirement, he is one of a kind artist. If you want to see a different side of Marko, react to The Islander live at Tampere

With Love from Finland!

3:26 best comment I've heard from any reaction to this song "i can't get this loud enough"

For all of you out there who have not experienced Nightwish, you have just witnessed the only band able to do a cover of Pink Floyd justice. Everything they touch is magic. Great reaction my friend! The journey down the rabbit hole continues...

I have seen Pink Floyd in concert. I owned this disk. This is my favorite version of this song.

And now you know why Marko is amazing and why we Nightwish followers were so sad when he left the band earlier this year. He was so much more than the bassist 2nd vocalist. Nice reaction!

Some late reaction, but I have to mention that Sir David Gilmour himself sayd that he was blown away by this cover. When this was mentioned to Tuomas he replied with..., "it wasn't a cover, it was just another version of the same great song!"

An absolutely amazing tribute to this song. This one from the End Of An Era concert. This was the night that Tarja Turunen was given THE letter. Just love Emppu's guitar work in this

One of the things that make this performance even more powerful to me is the fact that this was the last show with their original singer, Tarja. There was a lot of turmoil within the band at that time, and at the end of that show, Tarja was going to be handed her dismissal letter, a fact that was known by all members of the band (except her). Thus, this particular show has a special vibe. It could have been the final show of Nightwish, the night their High Hopes were dashed.

Truly a Tribute to pink Floyd. Marco is great and will be sorely missed from Nightwish.

This was not a cover. It was a tribute to Pink Floyd! Greetings from the USA

They are more than musicians, they are magicians. With this song the wizzard as front singer. I tried to break the like button as requested but broke my touch screen instead.

That passion and the pain, I choose to believe that this is all about Tarja. The literal end of an Era, with all that that entails.

Holy Moses! This was good and beyond!!! Thanks for reacting to the super finns 😃

This was new year concert in Finland 2005. 16 years ago. Perfect..

What a Tribute, from one awesome Band to another awesome band

I have tears in my eyes. Nightwish's doing it again.

This is without a doubt the best cover I've ever heard of any song

This is the End of an Era performance of that song. End of childhood innocence captures the vibe of that night. The band made the decision to fire their first singer Tarja, a childhood friend of Tuomas earlier. While they played the song Tarja was doing her last costume change for Nightwish ever. She didn't know that she would receive the letter after the show. The division bell was rung. At the time the situation in the band was quite tense. They played High Hopes at other shows before (I got to see them performing this live in Stuttgart during that tour). Not sure if that was already foreshadowing.

Loving the California shirt 🤘💀 glad you enjoyed this fantastic rendition

Good music is not about age. A generation separates us, my sons are your age and older but still I resonate perfectly with your comment. Many times I am skeptical about the direction in which the world is going today, but when I see young people like you, I think that humanity still has chances.

Old Metal/Rock Head hear I’ve seen Pink Floyd in concert three time they are one of my all time favorite bands, I’ve been a fan of Nightwish for 20 years it’s on my bucket list to see them live. They made High Hopes their own. I actually, dare I say it, love Nightwishes version better. Good jobs on your reaction enjoying young people discovering what good music is. Check out Sancta Terra by Epica featuring Floor Jansen at Epica Retrospective show. Rock On Stay Safe!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

The arrangement of the music in this version is phenomenal. Marko's vocals bring a different feel to the lyrics and with it being a tribute to Pink Floyd, or any band for that matter, this is up there with the best of them. Unquestionably some of the best musicians around

I really enjoy your “in the moment” style and enthusiasm. I’m hard pressed to imagine a more capable band than Nightwish to take on such a complex piece of music as a Pink Floyd tune and rework it in such an appropriate manner. Marco reaches inside the listener with that voice. Thomas has such impeccable grasp of what music and the human condition is, a tremendous emotional intellect.

This is sooo beautiful, always chills all over. The magic of Marco❣️

Thank you for this Reaction.

Wonderful reaction. Thank you for reacting and not stopping this video. Wonderful.

Shows the ability of those four masters of music . Dave Gilmour loved it too

Nightwish do the best homage to Pinkfloyd s High Hops Marco do the vocals and Empu the Gitarre 🎸Solos .

Great reaction! I love seeing young fans of Nightwish! They are incredible 😀 Thanks for the reaction.

Pink Floyd + Nightwish: the perfect combination! Also, the paint job looks nice!

The last note, the last bell the last klang, always gets to me. How powerful can one note be? Marko, Marko, Marko how will we be able to do without you. I don't want to even imagine it. The power, the passion and the incredible emotion you bring to Nightwish. The performance on its own is remarkable. I just don't know...

That was an awesome reaction, those Nightwish boys are pretty talented eh?

It was already a good song and Nightwish made it better. Marko kills it.

I saw Pink Floyd perform this song in 1994. It was a wonderful experience, and that concert still stands as the best I've attended. I was hoping that Nightwish would've played this when I saw them in 2012, but they didn't. Oh well, that was still a fantastic show, too.

Amazing cover!! Such a tribute to Pink Floyd from Nighwich 🤘

I KNEW you would do it lol.... you were intrigued on your live about this crossover!

I love this song! I saw Floyd this 1994 tour with my 8-month pregnant ex-wife our son that was born a month later I swears to this day that's why he likes rock and roll and loves playing guitar. And nightwish did this song all the Justice I love it!

Love your reaction. They were all at the top of their game. I’ve heard this dozens of times and still shed a few tears.

Thank you so much for reacting this Masterpiece, absolutely one of the greatest covers, I've ever heard. I have listened to this song many times and never get bored with it. Probably never will. Overwhelming performance and a great tribute to Pink Floyd. Marco’s leave from the Band still hurts a lot, I miss him dearly 🥲❣️

Got to your soul like it got mine

The way of your reaction...,it's still hope for our planet,thanks, and big support from Ljubljana -Slovenia-Boyan

Wonderful :) Nightwish and Pink Floyd are best stories and experiences you can get in music, i suggest doing Nightwish Dead Boys Poem live Buenos Aires or "Sleeping Sun" live in Tampere, yet if you enjoyed Marko singing "While your lips are still red" live in Wembley is a great mesage all three will let you on a different side of Nightwish, waiting for the next one! 💯🎶🎸🙏

Мурашки по телу)

Wow you can really see the Passion of good Music flowing through you....Great reaction.

thank you for another reaction cant wait for the next one

The passion you show for music is more than any words could ever describe

Listen to this song again when you're older. It feels different. I heard this song as a adult when it came out, and now that I'm on the downward slope it hits even harder. Great review and I appreciate your passion.

This is my first video from you and I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for the video and all the best. Plus have a nice women's day. :)

Loved the reaction Nightwish hopefully will be playing at the NEC later this year you really need to get tickets

Epic epic voice

Wow

spot on Girl from a life long Pink Floyd fan xxx

I like how the last two minutes of this song takes everyone off guard. Nobody expects how great it is.

Now do Phantom of the opera from the same concert please.

Love this cover. Heard it years ago. Jack sparrow on the keyboard though🤣

This was no cover. This was a tribute

Waiting marko gowing back 🤔😍

I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan. In fact it is my favorite band. But this cover is amazing. Separate topic: I just subscribed to your channel. Waiting for more reactions from you. Peace for you too.

First... Subbed after three or four reactions. Usually I do on first. Don't know why I waited on you. Loved it. Will binge-catch-up. Big love from Spain

Fricking Awesome!

Thank you for this! I hope we can see some live Pink Floyd reactions sometime. Have a fantastic day!!!

best tribute song ever

From one welshy to another cheers butt..... seriously though love that version.

oh my god wot a tribute to floyd would love to see marko & gilmore do this together would blow your mind !!!!!

Two of the greatest bands to grace our world - and you get it 👏👏

seeing you enjoy this song honors your profile name. you are indeed my girl

Love this song and is better then the original from Pink Floyd

This is not a cover , this an own song from Nightwish and a tribute from Toumas to his favorite Band Pink Floyd.

Empu Vuirinen do the Gitar Solos

Great reaction and wise words at the end. 😊👍

Well guys, after watching three other reactions from her by nw. Think the army has grown one.

I look to your reaction day after day and i love it to see that you feel the music like me.

This reaction made me to subscribe you! Thank you for this.

This one is a fantastic tribute to the great Pink Floyd... Thanks for the reaction 🤘 🤘

Emppu on the guitar though... 😮

12,1K ! Parabéns! Logo seremos 100K. :) Adoro Nightwish e Pink Floyd. Escuto Pink Floyd a mais de 30 anos.

I just love this song by Pink Floyd and I adore Pink Floyd, as I do Nightwish.. This is such a good cover, absolutely does the original justice while at the same time sounds kinda Nightwish. In this particular case I'd say it depends on mood if I want to listen to the original or this cover, because both are damned good. Original I do not think had double bass.. :D Props to David Gilmore, but also to Marco and Emppu.

This is called intens music

Now....THAT´s a reaction! So good girl!

Where do I find a woman who gets lost in music like you? 🤘🏻

Tuomas has said that this is not a cover, but an tribute.. I think they nailed it. 🎼🎼

so great you share your passion for nw with us. thank you and have a fine weekend.

It’s impossible not to be moved by this performance. It’s easy to argue that this is an improvement over the original. I know, I know, you can’t have a cover without an original, but I’m adamant that Nightwish took a decent song and made it an epic experience. I’m lucky, I saw them perform this at a small venue in 2003/4 (can never remember exactly). Mind blowing then, mind blowing now.

Nightwished … and the hopes getting higher 🤩😎

Another great reaction! I tear up a little with that one.

Pink Floyd is amazing 👍

Hi! Great reaction! I would also recommend Epica - Sancta Terra (feat. Floor Jansen)... I believe, you might like it :)

You said that, THIS IS BRILLIANT!

I've loved pink floyd for 45 years but nightwish is better with this song

Your words are 🎯.... thanks beautifull one 💜💥🌺👌🎶🌈💎
