Nightwish-Storytime Incredible REACTION! 

Great reaction to a great band. I am also proud of our Dutch Floor Jansen, who is married to the drummer of the band Sabaton. She now lives in Sweden and has just had her second child. She had her education at the Rock Academy in Tilburg in the Netherlands and she also had a short classical education. She also used to be a singing teacher. Next year (2025) she will start a theater tour in the Netherlands which is almost completely sold out. I'm glad I was able to get a ticket for her show in Eindhoven. I still have to wait a year (October 23, 2025) but it's definitely worth it.

Hello Jonathan and Sara [ Mystical Mojos ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you, Jonathan, for introducing Sara to this legendary band! This live recording is from Wacken Open Air 2013, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band, in front of an 82K audience. About the instrumental and vocal added parts - it's good to know they recorded their orchestral and vocal back tracks with prestigious institutions as London Philharmonic Orchestra. London's The Metro Voices choir group and London's Young Musicians Children's Choir as their regular partners. Since this is your first Nightwish reaction, it is my duty to give you the [updated] short history of the band concentrated by Ann Waychoff, one of the biggest Nightwish fan who has since passed away (and I am doing this in her memory): " Nightwish was started in 1996.They are considered a Symphonic Metal band, with a female main singer. They are from Finland. Tuomas Holopainen [pronounced Tuo-mas], the keyboard player, composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of their music. [Sami Vanska was the bassist of the band starting with their 2nd studio album, he was with them until 2001. Then Marco Hietala was bassist and vocals, since 2001 to 2020. He recently announced his retirement both from the band and the public life for the next year at least. Then in May 2021 Jukka Koskinen [pronounced Yukka] became the bassist of the band, for the Human :II: Nature tour - and recently, the band announced he became a permanent member] And there is the guitarist Emppu Vuorinen [he also recorded the bass lines for their 1st studio album]. Then there is Troy Donockley from UK who is a multi-instrumentalist and vocals. Jukka Nevalainen [pronounced Yukka] is the drummer. In 2015 due to Jukka's health issues Kai Hahto became the drummer and as of now is a permanent addition. Nightwish has had three singers. 1st one was Tarja Turunen [pronounced Tarr-ya] (Operatic vocals). She was with them until 2005. The 2nd one was Anette Olzon from Sweden (Poppy, strong vocals). She was with them until 2012.The 3rd and current singer is Floor Jansen, from Netherlands (power, operatic, soprano.....most versatile) - you just heard her. There are live concerts that you should use depending on what era. From Wishes to Eternity and End of an Era (Tarja), Montreux Festival live 2012 and Exit Festival (Anette), Live at Wacken 2013, Live at Wembley, Live at Tampere, Vehicle of Spirit, Decades live (Floor). I hope this helps. I want to welcome you to the Nightwish community. I hope you like them enough to continue the journey. Believe me Nightwish will surprise you with their songs. You will never know what to expect. They are unbelievable live. I want to warn you that Nightwish fans are hard core. So be prepared. lol " For an extended set of suggestion (with links), I posted 2 huge comments in the community tab in my main YT channel: www.youtube.com/@gabriel.bardac/community 🤘

Excellent reaction. Great to have some Aussies reacting to Nightwish. Having worked with a few, I have never met an Aussie I didn’t like. There lots of great stuff to react to off their new album. An Ocean Of Strange Islands or the beautiful Lanternlight would be a good start. Greetings from the UK.

yes its amazing and i was there 😄

the Nightwish Army has arrived and greets you..

Ive watched that video hundreds of times and it still gets to me. Floors voice is so amazing and the song is so happy, its pure serotonin right into my brain.

the North German Division of the Nightwish Army reports !! We are there.salute General @gabriel_bardac.

Great reaction, you have a new subscriber. Yes, there is something special about Nightwish and Floor Jansen; I have never been moved so much before by the music of a band or a voice like Floor's. She is an empath and able to communicate the feelings in a song to the audience. Gabriel has already sent you a list of songs he recommends; you cannot go wrong with this list. From the new album (released in September 2024) Yesterwynde I would recommend the songs "An ocean of strange islands" (lyric video) and "Lanternlight" (music video); for the latter have your tissues ready, this song is sheer beauty. Tuomas the songwriter said that this is a lovesong to his father who died in 2021 and all other beloved people who passed away to celebrate their lives.

hi, i like your enthusiasm and enthusiasm, in other words i like to watch your reaction, it's nice to see those who accept what is pleasant to you

Hello Nightwish Army reporting from the Netherlands. Welcome to the wonderful world of Nightwish. They are from Finland. And they make Symphonic Metal. What you've heard here is just the tip of what this band can do. Nightwish really hits you in your heart. And that's what makes this band so unique. Her name is Floor Jansen and she is Dutch. There were 82,000 people there. I happily refer you to Gabriel Bardac's comment (he'll be here soon) for a list with lots of song suggestion. Watch out for the Nightwish Army. Greetings from the Netherlands.

Nightwish Scaretale live with Annette Olsen the second singer , perfect for spooky season ❤

Great reaction,expect a flood of Nightwish army subscribers now 😀

Thank you for giving such a nice reaction👌. It is a super band with one of the best singers on our planet😘

Yes, WOW. Band and audience having an absolute ball. Watch the entire concert - the crowd is always involved.

Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, avec un peu de retard ( beaucoup beaucoup ) , très bonne réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mes amis vous venez de faire connaissance du métal symphonique et de notre reine Floor, mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin ( je le dit surtout pour Sara ). Je vous souhaite de bons floorgasmes et continuez vos réactions nous serons toujours derrière vous pour vous soutenir pour notre groupe...... Encore plus d'écoutes s'il vous plait...... Merci. Continuez sur le festival du Wacken Open Air 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe et sont à écouter absolument. Vous venez d'écouter la 6ème chanson du set, ensuite faites le Ever Dream qui commence comme une douce ballade voix piano et sur un signe de Marko ( le bassiste ) continue d'accélérer pour finir comme un train à grande vitesse et en même temps de faire la connaissance de la voix de Mark , mais en règle générale les nouveaux réacteurs commence par le Ghost Love Score qui reste un incontournable à écouter en priorité, ( et ainsi appréhender l'immense étendu de la voie de Floor ) puis du plus lourd avec Ghost River pour entendre le mélange magnifique des voix de Floor avec Marko ( merveilleuse harmonie ) ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide ..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu, ou être déjà passé ou alors retournez sur votre première réaction au groupe( Un grand MERCI à Gabriel d'avoir repris le flambeau de notre regrettée Anne ) cliquez sur son nom et allez sur communauté, vous pourrez suivre sa liste en toute confiance avec les meilleurs mixages à la bonne vitesse et avec le meilleur audio mais ce n'est pas une obligation, juste un sage conseil pour entendre une petite partie du meilleur du groupe. Continuez les filets du groupe sont tendus et il vous sera très difficile de vous en sortir, plus de NIGHTWISH s'il vous plait et bienvenu à vous...... Bonne écoute et à bientôt, et un nouvel abonné ici.......Paix sur vous mes amis .......

One of my Favorit ❤ Welcome to the World of Nightwish and Floor. NW Army Germany 😊

🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done guys and welcome to the Nightwish Family

We need them to come here. Australian audiences will love them.

Storytime is about Peter Pan (text), after this you should look at their song Ghost Love Score and song/show The Greatest show on earth, it's about the birth of the earth, its evolution and goes in several chapters. It's amazing..... 👇👇👇 NIGHTWISH - The Greatest Show on Earth (with Richard Dawkins) (OFFICIAL LIVE) It's based on The book 👇👇👇 The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution is a 2009 book by British biologist Richard Dawkins, which was released on 3 September 2009 in the UK and on 22 September 2009 in the US. It sets out the evidence for biological evolution, and is Dawkins's 10th book, following his best-selling critique of religion The God Delusion (2006) and The Ancestor's Tale (2004), which traces human ancestry back to the dawn of life. Then you should look at this, it's really amazing. Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera | Beste Zangers 2019 Nightwish have had three lead singers and their all schooled sopranos.

Greetings from Finland 🤘🤘

Hi, 74 years old hippie from the Netherlands =Floor, Irene, Simone, Anneke, Dianne, Charlotte, Sharon, Marcella, Joost (LUL) & Arjen (Ayreon) Country= reporting in: -There are a lot of Singers/Musicians who are important for the Music Industry (SALES) and there are Singers/Musicians, NOT A LOT, who are important for The Music History, as an ART ... That's where you find FLOOR & Nightwish !!! Shine on my friends ... 🤘

Looking forward to Ghost Love Score at Wacken. Plus many many more.

I would like to repeat what others have said, great reaction and subbing as you guys need subscribers. Looking forward to your journey

Floor makes every song better👌👌🤘🤘

Very good reaction. Subscribed. Keep em coming. Cheers from Germany 🤘😎

Great reaction guys! Hoping to see more Nightwish from you soon! Greetings from Finland!

Great, Thank You ( choose more from General Gabriel's List) Greetings from NW-Army-Germany and SabatonFan

Saw them at Wembly in 2022 great night out,,😎

This is one of many songs at this Wacken concert that was performed better than the original studio version just because Floor sang it. Her range, diction, versatility and empathy puts so many singers to shame. The operatic middle section here was not sung in the studio or live by the previous singer Anette Olzon as she couldn't.

Floor is just unbelieveable. Similar to her guys, especially Tuomas.

Nightwish high hopes! Marco leading... Well there's so much more

King Jukka Nevalainen on drums!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Well done ! New sub here . Greetings from NW army ..... Sweden

I'm a simple man... I hear "revisiting Nightwish" i like and subscribe 😉😉🤘🤘

Hi Mystical Mojos, i loved to see your reaction video of Nightwish. For me they are the best band in the world 😍 I also have another recommendation for you. If you like surprises and prog music, then try this masterpiece of our Dutch genius Arjen Anthony Lucassen with 11 awesome singers (I won't spoil who they are, but i think you will recognize some of them 😉): Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down. Here is the link to the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oFuMKdrzPqU.html You will be blown away by all the talented musicians and singers! You won't be dissappointed....I PROMISE! Hope to see your reaction to this masterpiece soon and for now....Greetings, stay safe and lots of love from The Netherlands, Martin.

Now..thats how we play music in Finland. Great reaction guys. Cheers from a finn in Sweden. Good luck with your channel. You got a new subscriber. 🎉

Thnx 4 this. Go on with the stuff. Welcome to the Nightwish army^^. Please listen to Song of myself at Wacken. And, i am sure this will leave you speachless, the Gratest show on earth at Tampere. Due to Marco's voice , the wiking bassman, give The phantom of the opera a try, the"old" Nightwish singer Tarja will show her quality as well. Peace from Germany and pls stay save

Thanks for sharing your cool reaction to this epic band & a song that ncourages listeners to embark on their own journey of discovery, setting sail on the bottomless "chest of tales" to explore the limitless possibilities of imagination.

Hi 👋 from the UK 🇬🇧 division of the Nightwish army something you might like to check out floor jansens band before joining Nightwish Revamp bisdain live at graspop 😊 Ps did you see the time traveller in the crowd he's wearing a hat and denim cut off just standing perfectly still 😊

Nightwish Army USA (Pa) division saying welcome to Symphonic Metal and Nightwish with the Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen, New subscriber for that. General Gabriel Bardac left you band info and a link to a list of songs with links . If I may suggest there song "Ghost Love Score" from the same show Wacken 2013 show in front of 82 k People and they were the headliner

👍👍🇳🇱🤘🤘🎤🎸💕👏👏

Let her enjoy it without explaining it.

Helloooo. I recommend a metal band, made up of girls, that you will fall in love with from the beginning. They are called "Lovebites" and I suggest the song "Set to the world on fire" live, so you can see the enormous talent they have. A big hug

It's really too bad that you didn't like this song at all... 😜 Cheers!

when it is not DUTCH ,it ain't much !!!!!!
