Floor just owns the stage!

I've said it before and say it again - Tuomas's emotional and musical I.Q is high up in the sky.

For sure I'll come back for more Nightwish with you🙂

Just love when Emppu and Tuomas plays harmonies together.

Floor is such a fantastic front person, it truly feels genuine the excitement and energy they all feel performing for us.

Emppu, que grande, ni una nota más ni una menos, es genial, nunca se enloquece con la guitarra, solo hace lo que dicta la canción. Floor insuperable.

🤩👍💥💯🎶 Oldie Goldies indeed. Throw back to the "source" from where they started THEIR own journey... Cool reaction män. 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙

This song climbed up to the very top of my Nightwish hits. Ok, there are no bad songs anyway, but this one is crazy good.

Simply fantastic. The harrmonic shits are superb. Floor is amazing. The group is so uniquely talented.

Kai's drum work, Emppu's impeccable guitar runs, Tuomas's matching Emppu, note for note, and Floor's vocal operatic prowess. Amazing.............but the bass lines by Marko thru out the song really hit me. He seems to never be videoed when he is doing great things with his bass!

You have to check the Tampere version in your own time. They both awesome. One of my favorites

Tuomas' compositions are always well thought out. He knows how to hold the listener from beginning to end. The band members perform his compositions with a high level of craftsmanship.

I believe Tuomas was 21 when he wrote this. Nuts! Floor kills this.... and in my opinion her vocals in the Tampere version are even better

Thanks for your reaction. very appreciating. Please do Tampere 2015 and Buenos Aires 2018 as well. And Helfest/Deichbrand 2022. Greetings.

A stonker of a song containing all the trademark Nightwish transitions and multi layering performed floorlessly by a magnificent group of musicians. A great break down reaction as always Jeff. Thank you. 🙏😊👍❤️

This is such an awesome song, can't wait until you do Buenos Aires, the song "Gethsemane" is amazing, also very heavy on the classical influences and operatic style.

Usually people listen to the version from Tampere. Is was fun to see this version where you hear the audience more in the mix with Floor's intro.

This song was written by a very young Tuomas, but fits exactly the trilogy (the last two albums and the one to come next year) about earth and evolution and us. So Tuomas was already early fascinated by the stars, but it was Troy who gave him a little push in the direction of the 2 D’s (Dawkins and Darwin). Check the lyrics for some beautiful Tuomas lines like: Tragedienne of heavens (planet Earth as the biggest tragedy possible is taking place there: evolution) Watching the eyes of the night (the stars) Sailing the virgin oceans (speeding through the expanding space) A Planetride for Mother and Child (Mother Earth and her child the moon)

If i had known about Nightwish and Tuomas back in the end of the 90's, i probably continue playing piano/keyboard today and have a different life. So happy to know Nightwish today! Amazing band 🤟

Thanks, Jeff. It was my first time hearing that song, too. Great energy and dynamics. And of course, Floor rules!

I love that the energy of the audience is not only catching for the band, but is also infectious for you 😅 Cheers from Germany 🤘

I know Tuomas is heavily influenced by film scores. This particular song always reminds me of LAST OF THE MOHICANS 1992. Love Floor's chat at the beginning.🇬🇧🤘🤘

Hey Jeff. Yes, as Floor mentioned , it is an older song. From way back on the 1998 2nd album ,Oceanborn. So, it was before Marko too. In the intro to this song at Tampere 2015, she mentioned that it has been off the Nightwish setlist for over 10 years, and they brought it back for this Endless Forms Most Beautiful tour. That is because it was one of the songs that got put away when Anette joined, as operatic vocals aren't her forte. Floor can sing that style easily, and the song fits in with the EFMB album themes of science and reason. Only 3 more songs left at Wembley, next is Ghost Love Score.

Was that Marko whistling? Never saw and heard that before.

Such a great song! Nightwish is currently working on their 10th album. Emppu started recording the guitars this week. :)

Nightwish with you is on another level - very entertaining…

this song is a another good example of this woman's vocal abilities and Tuomas as the composer songwriter and arranger too i think its much more of a collaborative effort but as far as this kind of music they create they have definitely raised the gold standard for this music and the production that is required behind it

You could tell by the vocal style it was an old power metal style Tarja era song. Great to see you again Jeff. Hope you are doing well?

Hi, very beautiful reaction, thank you

Just amazing, live Markos Whistling in this!

Some great duet there. Hetes Emppu talking about the slbum of that tour and mentioning Stargazers: "The solo in "Shudder" was a nice surprise and something I had great fun doing in the studio. It's also fun live. I'm always ecxcited about parts where there's room for improvisation - "Stargazers" for example, is a great live song that enables you to really shred." And Floor asked about her musical inf lo uences and her guitar hero: "The guitar hero? I play in a band with him: that’s Emppu [Vuorinen, Nightwish guitarist]. He is an amazing guitar player, but he doesn’t need to fill every gap in the song with meaningless notes. He really keeps the atmosphere [of the songs]. What he plays in Sleeping Sun is beautiful." Edit: you need yo do Burnos Aires 2018, lots of older songs like this, Gethsemane etc. Plus Troy singing a very early song, The Carpenter and also transcribing avwonderful early song, Swanheart, for solo Uilleann Pipes as the introbthat runs into one of the great show-starters, End of All Hope Please???

🤗🍒🤘🏻 well done again

I'm drinking a shot every time Floor says "fantastic," and I'm about to slip into a coma. 😂🤣

Anothet great reaction Thank you

Floor is beautiful

Another great one brother!! 👍🏻💥

A Nightwish classic 🙂

💫NWA🇫🇮🤘👍🔥

As close shredding as you will hear Emppu do... 🎸

Great song ! and make my day! Greets from Finland!

👍👍👍

Nice reaction, glad you liked it. There is more NW out there ❤‍🔥

Floor have a very carism isn't. I love her.

Emppu rocks!!!🤘🎸🎸🎸

Good one.

Great reaction, Jeff! At the Tampere show, Floor mentions that this song has been off the NW setlist for 10 years. It's a great song written for Tarja's style of singing. Floor's operatic take, to me, honors Tarja nicely. Lastly, if you're interested, the Kai drum-cam series filmed in Finland on this tour includes one of this song. Kai is a fun machine to watch! Here's the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aaulqclnss3Hco0.html Thanks, as always!

Next up is GLS then Greatest Show on Earth.

😁🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯🤘

And now the original with Tarja🇸🇪🇫🇮

You should check out the 2011 Buenas Aires version of this song with Tarja's solo band. Best version of this song I've seen. Ridiculous energy from both Tarja and the fans

Tampere version I like better

I prefer Tarja's version
