Nightwish Shadow Unit from Estonia reporting in ! Valkyrie Goddess spotted ! This is a Great Feel Good song . I absolutely Love this !!!! Troy is a magical being , and here is why : Troy Donockley "The Bard" (is an English composer and multi-instrumentalist most known for his playing of Uilleann pipes, tin whistle, vocals, guitar, keyboards, bass guitar, pump organ, bouzouki, cittern, bodhrán, mandola, harmonium, aerophone). Donockley was born in Workington, Cumberland; his parents were members of a band called Travelling Country. At the age of 16, Troy joined them, playing at many venues in West Cumbria. His father's record collection was broad and gave his son a love of classical, rock, country as well as traditional music. He is a multi-instrumentalist and a master of the Uilleann pipes. His ambition as a teenager was to travel the world as a musician, but he hated "empty pop created by cynical twerps". The strangeness of the sound of the Uilleann pipes enabled him to become a session musician with prog-rockers The Enid in 1987 on their album 'The Seed and the Sower'. Donockley's first appearance with Nightwish was on their 2007 release, Dark Passion Play, as a guest musician, providing some whistles and pipes to the songs "The Islander", "Last of the Wilds", and "Meadows of Heaven". He also joined them on select shows of the subsequent tour and appeared in the music video for "The Islander". In 2011, Donockley appeared as a guest on Imaginaerum, providing whistles, pipes, and vocals. He joined Nightwish again on the Imaginaerum World Tour, and also appeared on the band's concert DVD 'Showtime, Storytime'. He also appears in the Imaginaerum film from 2012 as a stage illusionist. Following the conclusion of the Imaginaerum World Tour, Donockley was made a full-time member of Nightwish in October 2013. He provides the main vocals for Nightwish's single ‘Harvest’, released in 2020. This was unusual for the band, as main vocals were usually provided by Floor Jansen. And here we are .... New subscriber to GazMASH AND for This Dying Hour 🤘😎🤘!!!! Thank You !!!

☹️+NIGHTWISH=😊 OH MY GOD This is absolutely Phenomenally!!!!!!! No day without NIGHTWISH 🤘🔥 GREAT MUSIC ALWAYS!!! Thank You So Much Love from the Netherlands ❤️ 🤍 💙 🇳🇱 🙋🏼‍♀️

Troy is a master magistral musician, nice reaction..Nightwish is the best band our time..all band is amazing..Floor is the Queen

Ah yes the FIRST VIEW, I feel it only necessary to say that I’ve been LOVING ur Nightwish Reactions so much, with so many reactors making the rounds lately it’s always refreshing to see someone TRULY LOVE their music and give some real reactions, keep it up the Nightwish Army loves u!! :)

Keep enjoying the Nightwish. A couple of other great performances from the Wembley show are Yours is an Empty Hope, one of their hardest hitters, and 7 Days to the Wolves, a heavy, ominous sounding tune that sounds great, and eventually, the biggest one, Poet and the Pendulum. Keep exploring!

How often do you see a metal band open a song with uilleann pipes and an intro in Welsh? Nothing like a NW show. Have only seen them in person once but have tickets for Montréal in May.

This song is just too good to listen to in my headphones. I share it with my neighbors nearly every week.

Well put by Sare Banas. Marco once said; 'Yes baby, i agree!' Let me hide behind his words but i really agree. Loved it on a painfull morning/afternoon after a accident. Music, certainly theirs, does wonders! Thank you!

Yes the 2025 tour was Vehicle of Spirit. The two big concerts recorded for DVD on that tour were Tampere and Wembley. Both great concerts throughout and worth doing. Troy gets to show why he is so well regarded. Don't they all love playing/singing this?

I live near Walden Pond. Went there and listened to this track. Fire. Golden. Paradise.

Always good to wake up to a Nightwish reaction from you ......better than a cup of coffee ☕

I am realy looking forward to your reaction of Master Passion Creed. That song is not performed live but it is 180 degrees of My Walden Love your reactions of Nightwish, keep them coming.

Nightwish has a gigantic catalog of music and no two songs are alike

The Greatest show on earth

Ohne of the best KZfaq reactors… many thx for this again. Can‘t wait for the next one. My suggestion: Elvenjig/Elvenpath (live from Bogota)… be surprised…

Great reaction! New sub from the Netherlands, check out “seven days to the wolves “ (if you didn’t already 😁) one of my favourites!

It's more like folk music, but it's really good. Nightwish are always really good.

🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍👋👋👋

Can I just say that the outro is 100% Stonehenge (Spinal Tap), and I mean that in the best possible way 🙂

Troy❤❤❤ Nice reaction:)

Areet kidda, let’s just hope they come to the arena in Newcastle one day.

Nightwish is without doubt the best band in the world and Floor is the greatest singer around today.On this track you see the newer drummer Kai Hahto of Wintersun Now that Marco has left (Gutted) The new Bass player is Jukka Koskinen. You can see Him and Kai playing in wintersun Sons of winter and stars live at pump studios..It shows you how big a beast Kai is..kzfaq.info/get/bejne/itJlh5CY0brIiKs.html

😊🇫🇮🤘❤️🎶🎹🎸🥁✨👍

Prijatelju pozdrav iz hrvatske obožavam metal ali flor i marko i cijela ekipa njihova je muzika najbolja na svijetu slušam ih svaki dan jednostavdtavno su savršeni dao im bog puno sreće i zdravlja da nam još dugo sviraju tu preljepu glazbu Petar hrvatska

So refreshing to see that a metal monster as yourself can actually appreciate a Celtic/folk rock song like this one. Well done my friend. As you can see the metal side of Nightwish is not the focus all the time. 🤘🍀

I can't head bang I'd miss seeing floor

Please reaction sabaton Christmas truce 🙏🙏🙏
