Hello Jimmy [ GP42Reacts ] ! Nightwish fan here, your musical quest summoned me. Welcome to the world of symphonic metal! And thank you for checking this legendary band! This live recording is from their 2015 Wembley Arena concert, together with Floor Jansen [pronounced Yansen], the 3rd and present female singer of the band and Marco Hietala, bassist and singer. 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 🤘

If you love awesome concerts, the Nightwish performance at Wacken 2013 is one of THE greatest concert experiences they've had, with Wembley 2015 (where The Poet and The Pendulum is from) a close second. If you want to see how a concert SHOULD start, check out the opening song. Correction: Check out the entire concert. Quite a lot of the songs from Gabriel's list is from there, anyway. It'd make an awesome experience for you and a great reaction video 👍🏻😁

You heard Floor sing in her higher register, to hear sing in a much lower register may I recommend to you the song "Song Of Myself" from the Wacken 2013 concert? I DARE YOU to try not to headbang whilst watching that video! 🤣

Floor is a transcendent talent, her tone, range, pitch & control are amazing ... and her stage presence & story-telling is just incredible!! And the band - the band are all masterful musicians. Together they present a synergistic glory that is completely and utterly ineffable. Music should evoke feelings - it is after all, as Tuomas has said, the sound of emotions, and Nightwish personify this perfectly.

Nice reaction! Welcome to the world of symphonic metal and our 6’ 1” Valkyrie goddess Floor Jansen. I know Amy Lee is your only point of reference but you will see Floor is in a league of her own. Floor trained as an opera singer and can sing anything from opera to death metal growls. I think their heavier songs would be more your thing so your next Nightwish reaction should be either Romanticide live 2013 or Yours Is An Empty Hope live from Wembley.

Greetings from Seattle, WA Although Amy Lee is a great singer in her own right I have to give it to Floor by far. Floor sings in multiple languages, she sings Rock/Metal, she can growl, she sings opera and has many projects going at once. The Nightwish rabbit hole goes deep. You'll find that no two songs are the same. Every time you listen to one song you'll end up saying this is my favorite and then you hear the next one and you'll say it's your favorite. They are very versatile. I would shy away from doing all of the comparisons to other musicians or bands and enjoy them from song to song. Floor Jensen is the 3rd singer to join Nightwish and she is the best fit for their style of music. As you continue to react to this band you'll find that their songs are unpredictable and don't follow the normal verse, chorus, verse, chorus, etc. pattern of many bands. For more detailed information read Garbriel Bardac's comment below. He has put together a great list of songs and information on Nightwish. Welcome to the Nightwish army and enjoy the Epic ride!! PS, They're from the Netherlands. Looking forward to your next reaction. Thank 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. 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.

Floor has an opera background, classical training at the Music univeristy and finished the Rock academy. What you hear in the intro is a young boy soprano. The song was written when the 2nd singer Anette joined and she can't reach these notes (more poppy voice and mostly album video's) and is not classsical trained. Otherwise Floor would have sung it🤟 Floor is 42 now and she is singing in metalbands since she was 16😂 Her first band (Dutch) After Forever was a great band too! Floor Jansen (Yansen pronounced) is THE best female metal front singer of al times. Floor combines all kinds of techniques in a rapid tempo. She is our Valkery Goddes. This song is written by Tuomas (key's, piano) and it is about an extremely dark time around the band (first singer and friend since the band members were small, she was thrown out because of lots of reasons) The backlash wss HUGE, Floor is Dutch, but Nightwish is from Origin Finnish. They are the biggest band in Finland and when the band decided to part ways with Tarja, the fans, media and even the Prime minister of Finland, talked horrible about the band. Tuomas took the fall, ended up very depressed, could not write music or play anymore and was constatly hunted by the thought of suicide. Tuomas IS music. The end part is Floor singing the words from Tuomas his mother. This is one of their tearjerkers and very deep. Nightwish lyrics are poetry and there is a lot to discover in the lyrics too. BTW, The London Symphonic Orchestra worked with Tuomas, he wrote all the music for their masterpieces. Marko (Bass player) is from the 80's and is a GREAT singer. He can sound like the devil and like a male angel. His voice is superb! The harmonies with Floor ar just phenominal. You just had your first Floorgasmes, congrats😂 You are FLOORED. Yes, all bandmembers are Nordic, (Finland, Holland and Ireland...roy was not on stage here. He plays Uilleon pipes, guitar, sings, flute...you name it) I saw them in Wacken (Germany) for the first time, Floor was not even a steady bandmember at that time and she and they blew us away. 82.000 people in awe.

Nightwish Army USA (Pa) division saying Welcome to Symphonic Metal with Nightwish and our Valkyrie Queen Floor Jansen , New Subscriber for this. I'm going to give you a description of what this song is all about. The Poet and the Pendulum was written after firing Tarja the original singer. She was the face of Nightwish at the time, and Tuomas (Keyboards) wrote this and considered her a muse to many of the songs he had written at that point. They had also grown up in the same city and knew each other since early childhood. All the band members decided together to fire her for acting too much of a diva And her husband & Manager was stepping way outta bounds concerning the band business He always wanted more money , only big paying show but the band did it for the love of music and there fans . According to all the band members, Tarja was missing lots of rehearsals and would not even travel with the band anymore. Tuomas was painted as the devil by many fans, and went through a deep depression. He even considered ending the band . He wrote The Poet and the Pendulum at that time, and actually kills himself in the song. He said he killed himself in the song at the 10:00 time stamp , as to kill the pain he was going through . To this day every time he plays it, it takes him back to those feelings, and shows on his face. In the last part, Mother and Father, words are said to him that his real mother said to him at that time of his deep depression. One part that touches me at the end when the guitarist Emppu and bassist Marko, the only other two involved with firing Tarja (that were still active with the band at the time of this show )were standing with Tuomas at the end in solidarity and love., NOTE : the 1st two words are (The End) and the last two words are (The Beginning) representing the end of the 1st era of Nightwish and the beginning of the next era

Enjoyed your reaction, but I’d recommend maybe revisiting this song down the road, after you’ve gotten to know the band better, as well as the heart and mind of Tuomas (keyboardist who writes the vast majority of the music and lyrics)…the song hits much harder then. As far as Floor…she is Dutch and joined her first band After Forever back in the mid-1990s as a teenager. She does have classical training…I’m not sure where the Amy Lee comparisons come from…Amy is a great singer with a very strong voice, but she does not have an operatic, or even classical, voice. Nightwish itself is from Finland, though, besides Floor being Dutch, there is also a British multi-instrumentalist named Troy who is not seen in this video, but is the sixth member of the band. I see Gabriel has visited you with a link to his list of recommendations…he will not steer you wrong. And you’re definitely right…live is the way to go with this band, especially from 2013 to the present, since Floor’s been the vocalist. You are in for quite a ride, with many many surprises! ☮️

As to the conversation (?) during the 2nd part - Tuomas, the keybordist (the leader and author of the most songs) and Emppu, the guitarist, both are the founders of the band. Marko, the base player came later, though he was there when the band dismissed their first singer, so he had pretty good idea about the situation, but Floor (the 3rd singer, singing here), Troy (multiinstrumentalist), and Kai (drummer that replaced the first one) read about it in the newspapers....

Anyway, since you have started big, I suggest "Devil and Dark Ocean" from their 2nd album. There is an audio with their first singer as the Mermaid and guest as the Devil, and video from Buenos Aires with Floor as the mermaid and Marko as the Devil (I think Marko is a better devil, because he is obviously interested in the mermaid). And this is a very old video from the time of the second album kzfaq.info/get/bejne/app2gqp0zay7mJc.html, very poor sound, but, as I said, there is studio version in the KZfaq with exactly this singer. Just search for Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean.

Nightwish since 1996. Floor is Dutch, the band is mostly Finnish! (Troy is from the UK - Welsh if I remember right) Floor is fluent in more than three or four languages and can get by in at least twice that many! Heavy song for a first listen to Nightwish!

Un coucou de l'armée NIGHTWISH de France, avec un peu de retard ( beaucoup ), très très bonne et fine analyse et excellente réaction à l'écoute du plus grand groupe du monde pour ma part. Mais vous n'avez qu'effleuré le dessus de l'iceberg et vous n'êtes qu'a l'entrée du terrier de lapin. 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. Faites le festival Open Air Wacken 2013, vous êtes sur de ne pas vous tromper, les quinze chansons du set sont des classiques pour tous les fans du groupe. Ecoutez le fameux Ghost Love Score ( le classique de tous les nouveaux réacteurs ) ensuite toujours dans le même concert, 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, puis essayez le Storytime, un excellent rock comme on les aime ou alors du plus lourd avec Ghost River. ou encore plus lourd avec Romanticide..... Et je pense que notre ami Gabriel Bardac devait arriver sous peu, ou 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 le 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 ........ Merci et à bientôt. Bonne écoute et un nouvel abonné ici.......Allez en paix.

It is not Floor at the start of the song it is a boy soprano. As far as Amy Lee is concerned she is not in the same league as Floor. Floor is probably the best female singer in the world when you consider her range and the genre's she sings effortlessly. As well as other Nightwish also check out her singing on Beste Zangers (Shallow and Euphoria) and you will appreciate just how good she really is.

This is not usually a song a newcomer to Nightwish will review. But WTF, it was great nonetheless. The beginning was a boy singing, from there on it was Floor. You are in for the ride of your life if you stay on the Nightwish train.

Ah, the Valkyrie Goddess snares as herself another soul. Welcome to the Rabbit Hole. Lmao oh, geez, whats it been 4 days? Can't imagine how much hell you've gotten from the Nighwish Army for A. Doing Poet first and without prep and B. The Amy Lee references. To be fair the reason the Amy Lee comparisons annoy Nightwish fans so much is is because so many American first time listeners jump right to it because it's their only point of reference and because, yes; she can sound lijke Amy Lee...when she's doing that. (Never mind that both she and NightWish have been around years longer than Lee) Then she'll talk a breath and sound like Sarah Brifhtman. Another breath and you're listening to Ann Wilson then Pat Benetar then Idina Menzel then Anna Netrebko...and so on. It takes a few songs listening to her to get a real feel for how insanely versitile she is... But you pretty quickly come to the conclusion she's the most talented female singer in Rock right now. Hard to say where the Army will point you since you started in a place not many do. Ghost Love Score Wacken 2013 probably? It's a good next step.

Floor has a southern Dutch accent. It sounds kind of Irish a little. Most Americans hear Amy Lee at first listen. After a few more you will understand how different Floor is from almost all other vocalists. Her range is almost unlimited. Hope to see you again very soon. Get better. The band is mainly Finnish.

Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting. Introducing the Valkyrie the Goddess Floor Jansen sent from Valhalla to collect the souls of fallen warriors to sit with Odin. After you've gone deeper into the rabbit hole I dare you to come back and compare her to Amy Lee. The intro is a boy soprano Guy Eliot. Unfortunately poet and the pendulum is not a good place to start, there is a huge back story to this masterpiece.

As much as I love Evanesence and Amy Lee, Bought Fallen 6(!!), seen them live three times and I was fakking _in love_ with her for almost a decade, sorry... But she cant hold a candle to Floor. Theyre not in the same league. They dont even play the same sport. Thats not Amy being bad, shes phenomenal... Its just that Floor is not human. You cant compete with that.
