I don't know if it's been mentioned or brought to your attention but this song was done at the end of their set list too. Floor had been singing for about 70-80 minutes and she still pulled this song off.
I don't understand why people keep saying the Poet and the Pendulum is better or to listen to that next. This is absolutely amazing, Amaranth is amazing too.
That last note is what we call a Floorgasm! Floor is amazing. She is so versatile. Her stage presence is remarkable. Tuomas Holopainen the keyboard player composes and writes the lyrics for 95% of Nightwish's songs. He composes such beautiful and diverse music. And now he has Floor to bring it to life. She is the third singer they have had. The first was Tarja Turunen who has a solo career since she left Nightwish. She sang mostly operatic, and still does. Then there was Anette Olzon as the second one.She has a good voice. She is with a band right now. Her voice has a more poppy sound and power. The bassist , Marco Hiatela, also does vocals. Mostly back up, but also has sung some whole songs. They have been around since 1996. Just some background information to help if you were to do more Nightwish. I have a request, it is "Song of Myself" live at Wacken 2013. Thank you and a great reaction. You have a new sub!
I see you commenting on Nightwish reactions a lot, so I started thinking it would be interesting if you did a video about your story as a Nightwish fan. How you found the band, what were your thoughts and feelings when you first heard it etc. :)
@@WarlonWinterheart Thank you, but I would have a major panic attack. lol It is one thing to write things behind a computer screen and another going public. Besides that I am technologically illiterate. I would not even know where to begin. Also I am 64 yrs.old and who would want to watch a grandma talk about a metal band........ :-) But I appreciate the thought.
@@fdsannie "Grandma" talking about a metal band is exactly why it would be interesting. Give it a thought. I'm sure there is a lot of videos on how to get started and there are also a lot of people online who would be more than happy to help. Remember that you can always try it out without actually uploading anything online.
The smile that you got on that last note pretty much says it all. The longer she went with that note, the larger your smile got. Floor is spectacular. There is no other word for it.
The whole Nightwish Wacken 2013 Concert is a Master piece Floor Jansen is the perfekt fit for Nightwish She is a whole ispirration with her singing style you can pic any song from this concert
Ok, this is the fourth reaction video I have seen in a short period of time. Has none of you vocal coaches ever seen or been at a rock/metal concert? This is what it looks like. Huge crowds of people enjoying the music, singing with the artists. It is large, it is loud and it is fun. I happened to be blessed to be at Nightwish in Czech republic in 2008, and it has been absolutely perfect.And I am proud to say to be present at nearly 5 Kabát concerts (czech rock group), including their two biggest ones, with over 60 000 people attending. These shows are wonderful. It brings your spirit up. SO if you have never experienced it, please do. Oh and those ear plugs? They have them to be able to hear the music. Up the stage it is very hard to hear the music properly. Thank you :D
Just my 2 Cents: I don't compare any Nightwish-Singer (They all had their qualities). And I will never say, he/she is / was the greatest Singer. But....Floor must be really really close to what is "perfect" - Countless times she bring's me tears in the eyes with her talent, her voice. Seeing her live or here on YT, she is unbelivable...
@@theterranian8039 scattism is a porn fetish you muppet check the facts before you use the word shit eater if you didint know that dude get FUCKING laid
@nadia2883: My dearest nadia2883: I don't have a clue what you are referring to. I've never used the term "scattism" and actually don't know what it means. "shit eater" and "shit-eating"on the other hand are nothing but not-so-kind slang synonyms for "imbecile, totally idiotic". So where's your problem?
I heard someone call Floor Nightwish’s *last* singer in the same sentence as calling Tarja and Anette the first and second singers. I think Floor is definitely part of the final form of Nightwish.
The singer is Floor Jansen. Nightwish are lucky to have her in the band. Very impressive vocalist with an impressive amount of singing styles who is able to switch between them easily whenever she decides the song needs it. If you want to hear all this in one song listen to the song Yours is an Empty Hope live at the Nightwish cruise.. Glad you liked her. Nice reaction..
@@nick74bul Well, Tuomas is one who compose most of the music Floor is singing. Without Toumas, you wouldn't even hear Floor singing these songs. Yes, right.. :P
@@nick74bul Well, the great stuff Floor is singing, is a music someone has compose and written lyrics. It doesn't make a great singers just from scratch. But I agree, Floor sure is best thing what have happen to Nightwish.. And vice versa ;)
Band from Finland, singer from the Netherlands singing in English at a gig in Germany, bringing the world together one song at a time..... one world, one country, one people...musicians should run the world....
One of the best singer alive imho. She can really sing everything. I'm impressed by her power and control. There is an incredible workout on her muscles too.
Floor Jansen is one of my favourite metal vocalists of all time, along with Bruce Dickinson and Ronnie James Dio. Such a powerful voice, stage presence and charisma!
@@metalvideos1961 DIO was a Metal GOD on stage. You dont know what you are talking about. It's ok to prefer Ozzy over him, that's a matter of personal tastel. But calling his voice awful is laughable.
yeah she is a performer that demands your attention and manages to captivate you without effort. she is standing there like a goddess mesmerizing everyone.
Wacken open air 2013, full concert! Your life will be better for it! She and the band are just perfect for each other. Amazing concert with perfectly performed setlist!!
Completely agree with every word you wrote! I don't know how many times I played this full concert. Even my kids love it and have their favourite songs so they instantly come in front of the screen to watch and dance.
Great reaction. I think that Floor is a gift for Nightwish. I also believe that Floor has the passion for the music. She also writes her own songs. Not yet for Nightwish, but who know what bring the future.
I'm a complete lover of metal music of all kinds. I still put Nightwish up against anyone for talent and dedication. They love their fans and music in its purest form. Performances that don't disappoint. And Floor Jansen holds it all together with otherworldly vocal abilities and a great humility. Never tired of hearing them.
Great reaction!!! Floor Jansen has that incredible rock and operatic voice style and she can growl!!! I was amazed when I got to see her live since not only her vocals but she commands the stage like a Goddess!!! 🤘
Actually there are 75k Tickets sold every year and it is sold out again for next year. I go to that festival every year since I can afford it :) but yes. with staff it would be around 82k people
She's not happy she nailed it, she's stoked at the crowd response. Floor trained for a long time, performed for even longer and even taught. She nails it every single time.
I would recommend Nightwish - Song of Myself Wacken live, Ever dream Wacken live and The Islander live at Tampere. Floor has amazing voice but so has their bassist Marco (who you can hear in some songs).
@@Marielegoth Tarot are great. I think "I Rule" was the first song of theirs that I heard. If Marco wasn't so busy with NW they might release more than 2 albums a decade
A nice reaction and a good mix of insightful comments without talking over the entire video or stopping every 10 seconds* - two of the most common and self-indulgent tenancies of the ever-increasing number of "vocal coaches" on RU-vid. (*Rebecca Vocal Athlete can get away with this since she is hopelessly adorable.) Subscribed.
The Poet And The Pedulum live at Webley with Floor i suggest from Nightwish and Phantom Of The Opera with the first singer Tarja. They are both great singers.
If you want to hear her singing (she is Floor Jansen) different way you should try Yours is an Empty Hope live at Nightwish Cruise, Storytime live at Wacken or Weak Fantasy live at Tampere. If you want similiar vocal style you should try Dark Chest of Wonders live at Tampere (I'm not sure if it is on You Tube, if not try live at Wacken). Nightwish had also singer who was clasicly trained (Tarja Turunen) and if you want to hear her I think you should try Slaying the Dreamer , Nemo or Sleeping Sun, all from End of an Era DVD
I forgot 1 thing: Their bass player sings too. If you want to hear his songs you should try The Islander live at Tampere, While Your Lips Are Still Red live at Wembley or maybe Master Passion Greed (they never played it live and it is probably their heaviest song and for sure one of heaviest)
She is amazing, and a side not not a lot of people realize when watching this concert is she was contacted days before "Wacken"(The concerts name) to help them out and considering joining the band. She basically learned the set list on the plane flying there with the band.
Floor was a graduate from "the Rock academy" in Tilburg (first graduation class) and already a great front woman in After forever and doing guest vocals with Ayreon. She is the real deal and knows her stuff. (That's why you get called as a replacement for a running tour with less than 48 hours the get there and learn the songs. She probably didn't even know at this Wacken open air 2013 show if she would remain as there new front woman)
Everyone needs to know the story about how Floor came to be! Æons ago, the gods came together to create the ultimate being. The process took billions upon billions of years. Body and armor, sculpted in the image of Hippolyta, queen of the amazons, by Hephaestus - God of blacksmithing and sculpting.... Looks, perfected by Venus - The goddess of beauty. Voice, blessed by Hymenaios - The god of song. Hair, woven strand by strand from the sisters of fate. Thus, Floor Jansen was born. Gifted to two humans on Earth-Prime (our earth) who were deemed worthy by Gaea, godddess of the earth, Floor was raised to follow our mortal ways. Her true power lays dormant to this day, but. if released, Floor could enslave the entire omniverse, with the power of her voice. Effortlessly. Every once in a while, when she is singing, a tiny fraction of her power oozes out and binds all living things for a little while. This is what we know as a FLOORGASM. See all the people "crowdsurfing"? Her voice makes some peoples bodies weigh a lot less, and they are physically pulled towards Floor as if by telekinesis. I've heard that once while she was pregnant, and walking through the woods in Finald with her husband, a wild grizzly bear approached them. Floor, yelled to scare it away to protect her unborn child, and accidentally made the bear explode. She brought it back to life with her song, as a completely domesticated panda. We should start making Floor Jansen jokes instead of Chuck Norris jokes...
liked just for this line: See all the people "crowdsurfing"? Her voice makes some peoples bodies weigh a lot less, and they are physically pulled towards Floor as if by telekinesis. well done there :D
Am I the only one who read that comment in his/her head in the voice that the Slayer's Testaments in Doom are? Like: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T5UF6ashzkw.html
Floor Janssen is a vocal goddess. Not only can she take a song written for Tarja Turunen and make it her own; not only does she apply a huge arsenal of vocal techniques to this song; but this isn't all she can do. She can also false-chord growl if she wants to apply a really gritty feel to a song. She has said in interviews that she loves to explore different vocal techniques and different sounds. With Tuomas's song-writing, she gets one of the best playgrounds a singer of her talent could desire.
I clicked on the video for this 10:20 Floor Jansen is the most talented and versatile singer in metal. She can sing any style flawlessly. I highly recommend you to react to Nightwish - The Poet and the Pendulum live Wembley 2016
That is Floor Jansen, she´s dutch and she´s a heck of a brilliant singer. The concert you were watching was recorded on 3rd August 2013 at Wacken Open Air Festival. Wacken is a very small sleepy village located in Schleswig-Holstein in northern Germany. Every year in august 80.000 people from all over the world invade our small village for a week to join together as a happy family, camping, partying and enjoying more than hundred bands on 5 or 6 stages. I live in Wacken and I join the festival since 18 years now and can´t stop :-) Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting this gorgeous piece of music!
One thing you'll learn quickly doing Nightwish videos is that Floor is considered one of the best female metal vocalists working today. She's so immensely skilled its scary how good she is XD
I purely love that last moment for Floor. Dragged in at the last second, learn the setlist, learn the lyrics the pacing etc.... NAILS that last note..... victory head swish!!!!!!
Welcome to Nightwish. I just recently started getting to Nightwish as well. One song you need to check out, Romanticide live at Waken. I think that song shows more of Floor's range. As well as hear some vocals from the bassist.
Great reaction! I like that people who are in the vocal industry are reacting to these performances. I think that because Nightwish fall under Metal they don't get the attention they deserve. I personally think that Floor Jansen is about the most talented vocalist alive right now. This song showed you some of what she can do, only some. There were 82,000 people at that show and you have to bear in mind, it is not a Nightwish concert, well it is, but at an open air Festival. What I am getting at is that they weren't all there to see Nightwish and yet they were enraptured during that slow build up during the middle. One question, early in the video some of the music was skipped, the heavier guitar riff just before Floor starts singing. Initially I assumed you had skipped it to get to the vocals, which kind of made sense being a vocal coach and all, but then of course the long quiet bit didn't get skipped so I am curious, was it accidental? Either way, no worries, it was a great reaction all the same. May I recommend Romanticide from the same show? The song is a bit heavier but showcases some more of Floor's talent (and the bassist too, he is also a rather talented vocalist) Also The Poet and the Pendulum for a longer masterpiece that showcases yet more of Floor's range I would finally also recommend Phantom of the Opera featuring the bands original singer Tarja. She has a more operatic style and I personally prefer Floor's singing style(s) however she is nonetheless exceptionally talented and well worth a listen.
I cannot express how happy I am that you reacted to this, I love Floor Janson. I recommend song of myself and romantacide both from waken as this was. They were on fire that night. The poet and the pendulum from Wembley is also great. I’m still upset I didn’t see them when they were last in London.
Floor is amazing, she's for sure the most complete vocalist out there. She can do ALL, even growls ! Poet and The Pendulum (live at Wembley 2015) and Storytime from this same show are some other songs that you could react and both of them the pass player sings
That is why it is called a Floorgasm. She ist absolutely amazing sounding vulnerable and immortal in the same song. She might be an angel in disguise... Tarja is amazing too, but she lacks the emotional binding. (all in all to operatic) But congratulions for your Nightwish experience.
Floor Completes this song! Her range, low and high, is Amazing and powerful. She made a great song sound even better. I've been a fan of Nightwish for a long time. Tuomas is a musical genius! They're the first symphonic metal band I've ever heard. I Loved Tarja, but, and here it comes, I'm sorry, I know popular singers have their own style and Tarja was fantastic for Nightwish, but in this particular song, Tarja's vocal finish was Nothing like Floor's, and when she was done singing, she just walked off the stage. In the video, check out one of the guitarists, Emppu, and how he's smiling with admiration as Floor hits that high note. That's why I say that Floor completes this song.
Floor è perfetta per le canzoni nuove. Ma può sgolarsi quanto vuole. Su questo pezzo non allaccia le scarpe a Tarija. Zero. Con Floor perde tutta la sua magia.
Floor Jansen stepped in the band amidst a tour. The story goes that she was asked if she "can learn the set within 48 hours". It says something of the level of professionalism I guess.
That whole concert is a fucking orgasm. I wouldn't put NW on my top 10, but my god Floor + live = HOLY SHIT. This might be my favorite live album ever.
I don't know anything about singing, but it is fun watching vocal coaches react. And perhaps I've also learned some theory along the way. But regarding the combo Nightwish+Floor, what can I say that hasn't been said already. They are amazing and Ghost Love Score is my all time favourite.
I would highly recommend Nightwish's Poet and the Pendulum (Live at Wembley 2016) As it shows even more of Floors voice range, than Ghost Love Score does.
Im wondering how many Nightwish fans are there, just because of Floor and the band for first time.... me.. :D Im glad that other ppl likes band and symphonic metal :) Greetings from Poland!
This gig was filmed at the Wacken Open Air. It is the worlds biggest metal festival with 80000 people, I think. Please react to "The Greatest Show On Earth" by them live at Wembley, that song really is an epic masterpiece.
She makes me want to take vocal classes and start singing. I play electric quitar and have musical background but never put much effort on singing. Singing is still best way to express yourself!
I love your reaction at 7.31 😂 Lovely reaction, get ready for the Nightwish community. We tend to overcrowd your channel as soon as you do this song and have your first floorgasm.🤩 And we're fierce and fanatic and have many requests, but with good reason. Right?
I love Floor singing this song. She throws herself into it and it has amazing results. She's got such a beautiful sound to her voice. This is my absolutely favourite song by them and I was nervous when she said she was going to do it at their last live show in Toronto (I'm so used to listening to Tarja sing it) but did she ever nail it! It was so beautiful. And this band brings so much life to the stage- they're mesmerizing to watch. If you get the chance to see them live I have twice and I'd fully recommend- best concert I've ever been to.
Welcome to the wondrous world of symphonic metal, with the most extreme vocals in the best way. Commanded female vocalists Tarja Turunen ( Previously with Nightwish, now solo) - Personal Favourite Floor Jenson (Previously with After Forever, current Nightwish) - Personal Favourite Simone Simons (Epica) Manuela Kraller (Xandia) Elina Siirala (associated Leaves' Eyes) Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation)
Nightwish - Phantom of the Opera (live, end of an era). Different singer (Tarja Turunen) and male singer (Marco). Great performance and amazing singing.
All my fellow Nightwish fans, I know what you all came to see. You really came to see his reaction to 10:20, dont lie. Welcome to the Floorgasm club my friend.
You were inquiring about the choir....some (but not all) of their choir work is done by Metro Voices, a Choir group from London, England. They work closely with the London Philharmonic Orchestra who have been featured on every Nightwish album since 2004.
Great Reaction.... Please React to some Symphonic Metal Stuff from EPICA.... the Female Leadsinger Simone Simmons and Floor Jansen are Best Friends ... The Ballad "Feint" are my favorite
