REACTING to NIGHTWISH (Wish I Had An Angel) 🙏👼🔥 

Nightwish End Of An Era. Planet Hell.Tarja & Marko.

And THIS is why Marco will be missed!

This one is a cheesy banger, I love it 😂 Will never forget when I re-discovered this song in 2018 and played it a couple of times, my daughter (then 5) suddenly asked: "Mommy will you play me that song with a man with long hair making angry faces?". I did a double take 😂. She meant Marco! And she absolutely fell in love with this song. Now we mostly play Nightwish CDs in the car 😃

Where's Tank when Emppu's NOT playing his purple ESP EV-1 ???

For more Tarja-Marco amazing contrast, The Phantom of the Opera live End of an Era show. That one is a must. It is a masterpiece!!

Marko, Marko, Marko...I hear he is a really nice guy, but damn he looks possessed when he wants to. haha.

Marko looks so devilish on this video as if he was shooting at the audience with that bass guitar... and Tarja looks so beautiful, as always, as she does today.

Next. Slow love slow. Quite different. Nightwis jazz 🙂

You can never go wrong with a Viking, Jack Sparrow, Bandit, Elf and a Banshee!❤❤❤

That awkward moment when you realize that there's a third vocal in there where you said there's a second vocal, sung by Emppu's guitar. :)

Fun story, I tried that once in karaoke up until I came to the later half where Marko is shouting hahaha never ever againg haha

Once was a phenomenal era, the best by far in my opinion. Everyone was flawless and there's not a single bad song on this album.

“The Siren” is such a cool song and I think you would find it really interesting. Here’s the version from End of an Era: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ih74de5CUOg.html

I'd love to hear your thoughts on The Kinslayer and Gethsemane. Those don't seem to get much appreciation but they're really awesome

First song I ever heard from Nightwish was Nemo. This was the next one I heard. Both left a lasting impression.

Over the hills and far away, with Tarja

Nightwish. End Of An Era. Creek Mary's Blood !!

Suggestion Imagerium album song Rest Calm, Tank the Tech hasn't done that either so it would be totally new for you both.

There is one song I would like to request - that I believe will be barely requested, because its very rarely played, but for it is important, because it shows how important the fans are for Tuomas and the whole band. I am speaking about Higher then Hope - released 2004 on the Once album and dedicated Marc Brueland, who was a fan terminally ill (cancer) at the time the song was created. You even can hear him speaking some words on the track. After the Once world tour it got a rare gem to be played live - mostly it happened during the US legs of the Dark Passion Play and Imaginerium world tour when the band did know that some of the family members of Marc were in the audience. How important this one is for the band you can see that there is exactly one show (San Diego on Oct 6th, 2012) where Floor did sing the song - and it was only her 5th show with the band. So she learned it (after learning the whole set list in short time) just for this one show and you can see her holding back tears when performing it, dedicating it fully to Marc's family - turning and bowing to them at the end. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CU4BoG68Rqs.html

Have you seen official MV of Nemo? Tarja with her icon red jacket and innocent look, it is my fav :D

Yeah. Live versions are fun but the studio versions are the songs the way the band intended the song to sound like at the time. So I think you should do more studio versions and maby even whole albums. Would love to see that.

planet Hell sounds good to do next - studio version, Tarja live or Floor live version, either way, the song is perfection!

Hey chase. Dreamcatcher and Nightwish. U reacting to my favourites just nice. I'm a Nightwish fan in Tarja's era. Tarja is the pioneer of operatic metal singing.

Hi Chase. Tarja looks very beautiful and Marko Rocks

This was actually my first Nightwish song too, and my second symphonic metal song in general. The first one was "Cry For The Moon" by Epica from their "We Will Take You With Us" live studio recording. I remember listening to those 2 songs when I was 13 and thinking "WOW, I had no idea you could sing like that...these women are INCREDIBLE, they sound like actual angels!". Now I'm 24 and Epica and Nightwish are still my two favourite bands of all time. It has been quite a journey.

I don't remember how exactly I got into Nightwish but I'm pretty sure it was this song when it came out. I got all their albums then, and the two at the time with Marko were definitely my favorites. Beauty of the Beast (of, not and, which they also have as a song) is one of those precursor long, involved songs and I haven't seen too many people react to it yet. Maybe because there don't seem to be high quality live versions uploaded. End of All Hope was another favorite and I think they have recently uploaded an official video to it on the Nighwish channel. My cat was fascinated by watching you talk in this for some reason!

Wait, have you really not done Phantom of the Opera yet? 🙀

Next tip: Planet Hell live from End of an era with Tarja. I love that performance!

Either the Siren, Swanheart, or Tarja’s version of “Dead Boys Poem”

Deep Silent Complete (studio) is one of my Tarja favorites. Or, if you want to go back to Floor again, try "Sagan". Both relatively short and simple but like this one with great structure and melodies.

Chase you must see Nightwish - The Siren (End of an Era). Nightwish - Gethsemane (Helsinki 1999) 😁 and Buenos Aires 2018 🔥🌊🎤🎸🎹‼️

This album is what got me into Nightwish in the first place and more specifically this song because it was the first song of their's I had ever heard. A "banger" like you said, and it DID receive a lot of air play at the time of it's release. A lot of people I know to this day have told me this is also the song that first started them down the Nightwish rabbit hole of awesomeness lol. Great reaction vid as always Chase. I really hope that you'll do a reaction to the studio version of Ghost Love Score from this album, it is epic!

Great reaction as always! May I suggest reacting to Nightwish's song Planet Hell at some point? In my opinion it is one of the more underrated songs and a hidden gem of sorts and also one of my personal favorites. It comes from the same album Once like a bunch of songs you've already reacted to so far (songs like Ghost Love Score, Romanticide, Dark Chest of Wonders, Nemo, and this one, for example all come from the album Once).

Chase @1:29 "I know what they are doing here, introducing a melody." Also Chase @1:30 "Whoa whoa whoa! What is happening?" Chase's hands @1:32 "Let us take the lead and you follow when you are ready."

I agree with Rest Calm, Slow Love Slow (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t6l4H689FtM.html this one will definitely be a surprise!) and High Hopes, but I'll add Turn Loose the Mermaids ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DJS5g4-p3K4.html to the list. This is another one-of-the-kind song among the Nightwish songs.

The bass hit when Marco says 'i had' in the first line of the chorus always makes me feel like my headphones are being blown out.

Wish I Had An Angel in live concert End of an Era

MARCO!!!!!!!!! 😍😍🤘❤️🇫🇮🤘

Another great Reaction...Just Chase doing Chase Things My first ever Nightwish song was Wanderlust from the Wishmaster Album, maybe you could have a closer look at that one. It is quite powerful from beginning to end yet very unconventional in writing and verseing (

SO GLAD you did the original video. None other version can come even close to the power in this! :) You hit the very point of this song: It is aggressive-as-hell, in-your-face! - no excuses blaster that should wake up the dead and the deaf!! Then the combination of the said and the ethereal, angelic voice of Tarja. This contrast is the hook of the original Nightwish - something that no other band could provide. It caught my and so many others' attention from the get-go. Can we also talk about those camera pans in vertical. The shot on Tarja's face at the intro, moving up - and later the super-closeup shots straigth above Marco in the chorus. Corgeous! And the bass - "Döidi as hell!" :) 'Nuff said. Then we have the super low frequency effect - going all the way down to the 40-30 Hz range - at the very start of the chorus. You kids watching this video on your mobile phones - do yourself a favor and listen to this once with high quality headphones or a speaker system with a subwoofer. You'll find all kinds of new things there! Oh, and @Chase - it's an inhale. ;)

I have some suggestions! Let's go with Anette's best songs (imo). This lyric video for Meadows of Heaven: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vxsjv6LtRz0.html (blew me away when I first heard it) and this fan video (it won the official Nightwish contest and is now an official video for the song) for The crow, the owl, and the dove (written by Marko): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iyY5QMf41dk.html

Next Nightwish track should be High Hopes. I've been listening to it like non-stop since Marko's announcement.

Wanderlust Live! From the "From Wishes For Eternity" show!

My first Nightwish song was their cover of Over the Hills and far away, same thing it instantly hooked me on the band! Although I was very confused at first when I clicked on another song and heard Anette's voice 😂 I cannot wait until you react to that song, but I'm so glad you finally did this one :) once you complete Once (no pun intended) you have to listen to the whole thing through, it's my favorite album for a good reason :) thank you Chase for everything you do and helping me fall even deeper in love with the music

Great kudos to you man for pronouncing Tarja's name as it should be. Not so common or obvious, especially for English speakers. Just for fun cast your eye on "Alone in the Dark" version of that piece. Nightwish Army will probably scold me for that, but that was actually my first ever NW piece I heard and seen clip for. Very apt in my opinion. Brings good memories of Dark CP/Survival Horror RPG sessions I used to GM long, long time ago 🤘🤘🤘 Always love to get back to your analysis Good Sir. So insightful, so detailed... Not just "wow-wow, that's great"... Keep on good work 👍👍👍 Cheers! I.

When Nightwish explores the sounds of other cultures like in Sahara or Creek Mary's Blood

Nightwish - The Siren, End of an era.

Another MV, Endless Forms most Beautiful.

God damn this cd was so good when it came out. Still is, I suppose.

This was the song that made me a Nightwish fan in the early 2000's

Phantom of the Opera is a must (at least some time)! Great vocals together with Tarja and Marko. Thank you!

Oh damn, I can't believe you did that after so much time. You've done so much songs I haven't heard (I listen to Nightwish, but not a hole lot), and you did this one all the way now. Damn.

Always great to start my morning with you my friend! This was one of their big singles (2nd) from "Once". They did use digital drum sounds on this song. Loved it Chase! For additional reaction videos I would suggest doing some of the other songs from the Buenos Aires show. Perhaps, "10th Man Down", "Gethsemane", "Sacrament of Wilderness", or "The Kinslayer". All of these are older songs originally sung by Tarja. Have a damn good day! Peace.😊🎶🎶🎶🤘🤘🤘☝✌

Miss Marko already... best of luck, my man.

Please, please, please! Do "Dead to the World", there's beautiful Tarja vocals and agressive and powerful Marko vocals. It's really a pity it's not a song many people know/react to, because it's beautiful!! Maybe because it doesn't have a music video or live performance, but the studio version is perfect on itself.

Glad to see you're back! They look so hawt in this video. All of em. I hope Marko revitalizes too in the time he takes for himself. I don't see him quit forever. The man loves to be on stage. And I love how Nightwish can do so many surprising things without losing their Nightwish sound. I love them so much...

Enjoyed it very much! Can you do "Walking in the Air", the live version at Pakkahuone please? Such a beautiful song!

Absolutely was a radio hit, I even heard it on the radio in the states. Probably introduced a lot of people to the band. Maybe check out some very early Nightwish next. Gethsemane live in Helsinki 1999 is a good one. It’s a very interesting song musically. Or if you want to go back to Floor, I’ve been dying for you to react to Sahara live in Tampa.

I've been waiting for this one! This is the first song I ever heard them play back in 2004 when they came to Argentina to present a demo. Sadly, it is the only time I have seen them live, but I still have an autographed CD from that day. Thanks Chase for bringing back so many good memories ❤️🤘🏻

Superb again fella! Good to have a refreshed Chase back, ⏸️🤘

This song is still in my playlist. 😂 I discovered it via a music recommendation thread on 4chan(I'm old okay!) and it's actually my 1st Nightwish song. Such an over the top banger. 🥰

Great reaction to a great song.

Right back to the beginning we go, and oh yeah, love that. 😀👍👍

The Siren from End of an Era. An amazing song.

First song I ever heard of Nightwish a few months ago!

Wishmaster was my first original Nightwish song. A music video cover of Gary Moore's Over the Hills and Far Away was my second one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CwED4C5FJuo.html

Emppu is so vital in the live performances, and most will never see it. It is true he is a prankster, and runs around drinking beer and flinging picks while he plays flawlessly. He also is Tuomas' means of communicating and passing along tweaks during the concerts. I would love to see an unbridled Emppu sometime though just melting faces for 15 to 20 minutes alone, because i am sure he can. During the concerts Emppu plays vital role for the band, and ontop of that usually is the only guitar on stage. How many metal bands have usually only 1 electric guitar active, not many? Chase you are awesome man, love your commentaries, one thing i have learned over this past year, learning and listening to all things Nightwish. They are completely unpredictable and can do whatever they can imagine, awesomely.

My first Nightwish song that got me hooked was Nemo; the official video. Amazing tune! For me, Dark passion play is still my favourite album. There is no weak song on the album for me. You should react to "Eva". Classic Nightwish. Everything you love about them and Annette sounds superb!

This was used in Alone in the Dark. It was their biggest hit in the US and Europe. This is probably why more people heard it. It was their 5th single I believe.

Great. Absolutely awesome reaction!

One of the earliest of their "easy on the ears" kinda songs that's still gritty and heavy (probably the earliest of their gritty songs) and this is where I got to love Marco's voice.

Good pick! I remember loooooving this when it came out. Obviously huge Tarja fan.

This, Wishmaster and End of all Hope were my childhood! Great reaction Chase. Also, shoutout to 2000s music videos for being so cringy haha

Next up: The Phantom of the Opera with Tarja LIVE 🙏

Finnish radio stations did indeed go ham on this one, and still play it every now and then.

Actually im glad u chase a studio/video version as I personally think this song is better to listen to that way rather then live :D

My first Nightwish song I heard was elvenpath and all the other tracks in listed order on the Angels Falls First album. It was a few weeks after the that record went on sale in Finland.

Hello, maybe my proposition is "Creek Mary's Blood" from End of an Era concert :)

One of the best reaction channels on YT. I so love your obvious love for music, the way you feel it in your body is in my opinion the right way to experience music! + You have such great knowledge in the theory. Really pure enjoyment to watch you.

Nightwish -Slaying the dreamer (END of Era) must watch !

Original studio version is so crunchy and awesome. This is the songs best life imo. They all young and edgy... lol

Can't wait to see this! Wish I Had An Angel was the first Nightwish song I've ever listened to, right around the time when RU-vid had its internet boom (2006 or so). I thought "a band called Nightwish and a song called Wish I Had An Angel? Sounds cheesy but ok" and I had no idea it was gonna be the start of a 15-year and growing love of a band and a genre 😂 It’s also one of their more “commercial” songs (akin to Nemo, Elán, Amaranth, etc.) but still has the classic Nightwish formula

Chase Carneson doing Chase Carneson things. LOL Soon as you do the really cool thing ( recognizing that Jukka isn't doing fills, etc ) THEN NW does NW things and scrambles yer world. Hands go into reflexive punch-blocking mode... So Precious. I had a peckish for some Tarja this morning, and got a steamin' cuppa Chase as well. Start of a perfect day.

Chase doing Chase things!

Just watched this now. Grats to 50k Chase. I love your reactions.

First Nightwish song I ever heard! Absolute banger, appreciate the breakdown Chase, brightened my day!

I love this song, also please tell me I'm not the only one who would jump into a well if Tarja told me to do so. That said, I don't usually do suggestions, but I'd love to see your reaction to The Ghost Inside's Aftermath. It's a super banger with a really strong emotional background and video, which the first time left me basically cry headbanging.

This song was the beginning of my love to Nightwish. Before this I've heard Nemo but back then didn't like it to much 😅 but Wish I had an Angel... I love it since I've heard this for a first time. Sooo long time ago, good memories 😌

Marco does guest vocals on the new Therion album Leviathan, recommend the song Tuonela. Been trying to get Tank to give one of the founding fathers of symphonic metal a try for a while without success. This song is different than their old stuff which is a lot more operatic. I would also highly recommend some older Therion, like Sodom and Gomorrah, Cults of the Shadow, or Ginnungagap just to name a few. I recommend the studio recordings as the live versions are different sounding because of the symphony/choir. Closest live to the studio recordings I've heard is the Live at Waken 2001.

First song I ever heard of them (Headbanger's ball on MTV, when they were still a music channel) Hooked me instantly, lost touch somewhere and got back into them because of my son. They are an awesome band. Thank you for taking me back in time with this one!

The song that brought me into the Nightwish family. This song shows how much a void will be left without Marco :-( Great as always Chase, Rock On!

The song that introduced me to Nightwish and the moment i know i was going to be hooked forever. Man, the memories. And on the thought about the radio hit - i can clearly remember the late autumn of 2004 when from every radio station and TV channel there were basically 3 songs blasting all the time: Usher - Yeah, Eminem - Just Lose It and Nightwish - Wish I Had an Angel.

You could do their other albums from the begining!! But for the next video could be Nemo or Bless The Child, the official videos of course

i freakin love you chase, never stop doing Nightwish

Deep Silent Complete (Wishmaster album) is one of my favorite songs 🖤

The first era of the band with Queen Tarja Turunen has more prog, gothic and vampy sound !

Your reaction is amazing

You are right, this is an angry song, because Tuomas was angry when composing this epic song. He was angry to some drunken guys, who behavied quite disrespectfully towards his girlfriend back then. And like we all know, Tuomas’ way to express his feelings is to do it through music.

Nightwish End Of An Era. Planet Hell.Tarja & Marko. Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan by Tarja.

My favourite restoration, musical knowledge great, I have learnt loads, and my favorite band in the world. Cheers 🍻
