That is what Nightwish does to you. They bring out the emotion in you................ :-)

Thats what music is all about, emotions.

Awesome reaction Naka, you’re now an official member of the “Nightwish Army!”❤

meet me where the cliff meets the sea GETS ME EVERY TIME!

Nightwish on CD is amazing, but Nightwish live is pure emotion. Floor is so gifted, she's just special.

People - I don’t cry to most songs. Floor - Hold my beer 🍺!!!

The power of Floor is a beautiful thing. Your tears gained you a new subscriber. I hope you react to more of their live performances. Great reaction.

"Give me metal...where is my metal" LOL...That was also my initial thoughts about this song =D

Greetings from Finland! I love Nightwish

symphonic metal goes hand in hand with fantasy

I guess the emotion in the song is hitting you for the firs time. Tuomas can even pack emotion into a simple radio friendly single.

Never thought I'd shed tears listening to Elan, but it happened now, with you. Tears of joy, however . It's a joy to watch them perform live

I got goose bumps and tears in my eyes just because I see your reaction. Greetings from Germany- Nightwish army

I cry every time I listen to this song.

When I see your tears, I just want to give you a big hug.

A Nightwish album is basically a video game demo. The live show is the full version.

Im 46 years old and been listening to metal since i was 13. There are several songs by Nightwish that make me cry but thats wonderful since thats what music should give us, Good emotions. Floor is the best and saved Nightwish. Take care . //Stay Heavy

If music does not move you then you're dead, if not in actuality then in spirit. It does not have to be my music, or your music, or their music, but some music, somewhere, should touch your soul. When that moment arrives it is special in a fundamental way. I feel truly blessed that you shared this moment.

Elan is a french word. The meaning is that you enjoy your life, don’t let life take you down, have fun and be happy.

Damn girl! This might be the greatest reaction i have ever seen! 🤘🏻👍🏻

We understand. ...and you're a beautiful soul. No way for you to hear it from the perspective of someone in their mid 60s, but... Even for us oldsters, there is still joy to be found in elan, (ee-lon/ ay-lan...), with a Zest For Life and Vigorous Spirit. As a side note, I fall mostly hazard trees in our wildlands in the name of fire prevention and conservation, 65 - 70 hours a week, and (mostly European) metal brings me great joy and peace. When I first saw the video for Elan, I saw myself in the old people depicted there, slaving away like they were, just in a more exciting line, but finding youthful vitality in even a pop-ey, tame, feel-good folk-metal song. Nightwish are just kind of magical like that.

Never mind... many Nightwish Songs hitting me (a 45 years old Police Officer whose have his emotions under full Control) that I come to Tears, even if I heard the Song many times before. And guess what. I don't care and love that Nightwish with Floor has the ability to touch me that Deep. It's not just Hearing Music - it's Feeling Music. Thank you for this nice reaction...

Love this song and it makes my face water as well when I listen to it. Great reaction!

We all get emotional and feel their music deeply, it's what makes Floor and Nightwish so special.

The song is about death the members of the band played angels, taking all the older People to Heaven,where they have a big party👍🎶🤘

Naka if you want to sing along with the videos you react to that's fine with me love hearing your voice. / don't worry about crying it shows how much you enjoy the songs.

This is power! An underrated poppish song gets's you! That's great! All the love and greetings from Finland!

This song never spoke to me in any especial way, until I was there at the decades tour in buenos aires 2018. There was so much energy in there, everyone united for a melody, even some security guards loved it. It was my first time listening them live and it just felt right. It felt like Floor was made for Nightwish, a truly magical night!

It stays beautiful when Nightwish and Floor bringing across the emotions of the story they tell

Élan is a phenomenal song. In ALL of its aspects.......

The ninjas and their onions... nasty stuff!

There is something special when beautiful woman reacts to the beautiful music. It makes me smile.

NIghtwish is not just music .. it is an experience ... :)

Lovely reaction, Naka. Thank you. 🤘 Floor has the ability to play our heartstrings like a heavenly harp that vibrates the soul evoking emotions we didn't even know we had. Our metal goddess. Rock on! 🤘🔥🤘

It was just like me, the more you listen to Elan the more I loved the song and at the some point it end up with my teary eyes. Thanks for your sweet reaction to this one 👍

You are a beutiful soul, keep up the reactions,,,,,love it :)

Loved your reaction Naka! You are a sweetheart! :) Just beautiful significance in moment of NW humanity. Luv your channel!

Mission successful. Nightwish is about the feels.

It is just the way Floor brings a song.. your emotions are beautiful and so Real lady💋

Best reaction is true reaction. I usually avoid Nightwish reaction videos from people who have known the band for long as the element of surprise is gone. But you made difference to me now, I might recheck few other reactions now.

This video makes me so happy! I made the exact mistake of thinking it could be, I don't know if better is the word, when I heard it for the first time. But I went to see the video, the whole atmosphere, the vibe and everything. It sounds to me such a transparent peace, hope maybe. I'm not that used to feeling that listening to metal, and the music brought me something different. Anyway, keep rocking Naka!

First single with Floor and Troy , official members with the band for the first time👍🤘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

You're crying cause it's bloody Nightwish, and I do too! They are epic!

BEAUTIFUL REACTION !!!!!!! I was about to cry with you :( But at the end of the song I realized that you had tears of melancholy and happiness at the same time ... that was very crazy ♥ Then I remembered this and I started laughing without stopping NaKa metalhead 1:28 NaKa unarmed by the power of Nightwish 5:53 Naka falls apart and can't contain an ocean of tears screaming to leave 6:45 Naka finally hosts, and realizes how happy she is, for being alive and having the gift of enjoying music in this way. And with an incredible laugh delights his followers :) 7:27 Greetings from Argentina

RIP Ann Waychoff...our Nightwish army mother has past away a few days ago and this reaction made me also cry....by the way i love your reaction Naka the Metalhead

Seit Jahren, ist Floor für mich die beste ! Eine Göttin, was Gesang angeht ! ...Mach weiter so !

I have liked Élan from the first listen. It is a beautiful and softer side of Nightwish. Somehow mystical but very joyous towards the ending. I love the key change at the last chorus. As Floor sometimes says "It just makes you feel good". I like EFMB, but I hope the new CD is a little darker and deeper. The whole evolution and miracle of life thing was good, but it's time to move on. I want to hear Tuomas write something to get the most out of Floor. She is in the prime of her vocal ability right now! It is time for her to leave her mark on the evolution of Metal. Instead of singing Tajra and Annette songs, we await the masterpieces written for Floor in a way that only she can perform! History calls out and the world awaits! Floor loves it heavy and with the emotion she can bring it is bound to be epic beyond belief! BTW those tears brought out your inner beauty to match your outward appearance as well! We see and hear all your metal badass side, but Floor has a rare and beautiful voice which brings out those hidden emotions in all of us. All hail the Valkyrie Queen! I think the new video will be out in early to mid spring?

Naka, you arent alone with your initial reaction of the single "Élan". I felt it bit lacking too, not to say it was bad, quite the opposite it was very soothing and beautifull...but I felt it missed some drive/energy. Luckily, with the usual Nightwish style, live performance of the song rises up and beyond the album version. More raw, more "alive". Buenos Aires version yet again proves this. Thumbs for the surprisingly emotional reaction + greetings from Finland + keep on rocking! ^^

I always have this reaction to Elan, but those are happy tears, I think. :) It's simmilar to reactions to Alpenglow

Floor sounding (and looking) amazing, a lovely song, a huge entranced audience, and an amazing band at the top of their game. Very hard not to get emotional. ❤️

To fully appreciate Floor's vocal performance, one should know that there's an interview of Floor in which she tells that she was really sick when their Decades 2018 world tour was in South-America, even so that she could hardly speak. So she was most likely under heavy medication in this Buenos Aires show as well. Here's a link to that part of the interview where Floor tells having been really sick at the time kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gpupdb2dt5fLmGg.html

Lady starlight....... Amazing reaction thanks 🤘🤘

When you settle down and just listen, That's when you really find your Nightwish. The simple beauty of their music, even with their Grand pieces are just simple, straight ,and to the core of a person's being. Some songs are just perfect, like this one.

Thanks, nice reaction! That what you talk about Elán when it came out, just same what I was thinking back then! But usually, what is not so impressive in their album, might be in live situation. Nightwish really is live band. And Nightwish is band which raises emotions, sometimes tears, For me, several times has happen. Specially when Floor singing.

It hits you when it hits you. You are adorable 🥺

4:55 the right moment when the song breaks you for some reason and you can't hold it in. Love this emotive reaction Naka :) Cheers!

Your reaction was absolutely beautiful, just like you are. Very simple song but packed with emotion.

I’m amazed how the joy of someone’s else’s joy, can sweep me into a moment. Thanks!!

Well, upon watching this reaction video, I noticed the choir notes on the chorus got us both. I am a musician and feel great compositions deeper than most. That choir was like a knife in the heart, teared up as well. The song is catchy, very rockin' chorus and well performed. If you enjoyed the Tarja years, you'll be glad to know that she did a collaboration with Within Temptation on the song "Paradise" (What About Us). The music on the chorus is similar to this one though. You're gonna love it anyway! Oh, and it looks like she learned how to belt in chest voice. 😊 Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘 PS- Do more Nightwish reactions. 😊

This is a song I appreciated as I got older. About enjoying life and always remaining hungry for mystery and enjoying yourself.

"It Feeds From The Runs Undone". if that hits deep, makes you emotional, that's that little voice inside you, saying, "hey. remember me? those dreams you had? those plans you wanted to always make? that adventure you imagined? they're waiting for you. do you want to dream? or Do?"

Those emotions were AWESOME!!! Loved it :)

Beautiful reaction! I have good news for you. We could see the new video/single as early as February. Brand new Nightwish coming up next but first we feast on BA. What an amazing performance.

Yeah, this song always got me chills... And i really love the line "meet me where the cliff greets the sea" One of my favorite line ever...

come on girl, you came prepared for the reaction...you knew the lyrics in advance))) not fair))) it's so rare to see such emotional response, your tears were the best part of the whole video...such divine sincerity and all belongs to you. thank you for letting me experience this song in a way I never thought I would...! They are coming to London next year, Wembley Arena...get a ticket and..."Coooome"

I love this song, touches me too. Nightwish

Élan - the É is like the English long "A" sound. The word is French. You got the pronunciation right the second time you said it. The word means: vigor, spirit, or enthusiasm typically revealed by assurance of manner, brilliance of performance, or liveliness of imagination : ardor and zest are synonyms. (Merriam Webster dictionary) This song was the first single released from their album "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" and also the first single released with Floor as their lead singer. For the Wacken concert of 2013 and quite a few concerts before that, Floor was a temporary singer for the band. Annette left the band mid-tour and they were lucky to get Floor to join them. I think this particular song was released as an announcement that Floor was was officially a part of the band. I believe the video (not this live performance but the music video initially released) is a call to their fans - especially the ones who may have become less enthusiastic over the previous few years - saying we are here again and here is our new singer. I can imagine that all of the venerable old Finnish actors who appeared in the official video represent those fans suddenly hearing old friends and coming back to life with Élan. That's how I see it anyway.

I really love the video to this song. Floor looks amazing!

Beautiful reaction... I get foggy eyes also when I see Nightwish live with Floor... 🥺🥺🥺

Atmosphere, fairy tale. It's amazing how difficult it can be to find the words to describe something so touching. I have tried with others, i know. At this point, i am content with keeping Nightwish all to myself. An island to which i can escape.

You have been Froored Naka! ;)

The power of Nightwish's music... Wow Thanks for your reaction !!

The new double album will be released on April 10th. There will be 9 songs on one cd and the 2nd cd is instrumental. Please, listen to these existing songs: Ghost Love Score, Poet and the Pendulum and The Greatest Show on Earth. They are master pieces only Tuomas can create. No other band has the depth and artistic quality of Nightwish. They are unique.

Nice reaction. I know how you feel about this song when it was came out at the first time, but it's Nightwish after all because they always had soft song and heavy song in their album 👌

This song (especially live) has that effect on me too.

Nightwish is phenomenal! I saw them live in Dallas on their Decades tour!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

oooo another video from you today, what a treat! You spoil us 😜 Loved seeing the emotion from you. I find it emotional as well, it warms the soul I think.

The song really gets emotions going..First time on your channel love your reaction beautiful.....The band is amazing on all levels ...troy adds so much to the band

Ooh, what an emotional reaction, nice. And you are enjoyable to watch... 🥰 Thanks for the reaction.

Love your reacrtion. Same here in sentimental, im 48 years old Nighrwish fan..

It was worth every penny. Get it.🤘👍

Definitely subscribe to you, love your reaction, honest and I fell exactly the same way! I said way this song was her first single?! And now can’t stop to listen, love it! Naka you’re so beautiful, and more because you like Nightwish

I cry with you 😉 I love this final 🤟

I had already heard Elvenpath and Storytime and ADORED them, but this was the song that made me a Nightwish fan. I always feel a little flutter of joy every time I hear it. Your reaction made me smile.

Loved this reaction. Beautiful with the whole 180 degree turn of the opinion:)

Thank you for your tears! Great reaction. I have seen great part of Buenos Aires, and girl are going to cry só much! Love you see you in discord @Dark Falling Soul

You cried because the song is beautiful in lyric and tone, its amazing how music can touch people in so many different ways :) Sleeping Sun at Tampere did the same thing to me.

There ist an ancient Spirit in the music that calls us all Home.

The First single released written for and recorded by Floor. it's a beautiful song. very touching and inspirational. especially the chorus and the bridge. Another triumph by Tuomas. This album also has "Yours Is An Empty Hope" featuring Floor growling if you were looking for something heavier.

I must have died because I'm seeing a Beautiful looking Angel 3times in one day . Another awesome reaction to NightWish song Elan ..🤘💐💖🤘🙂

One of my favorite reactions!. The little bit of unexpected emotion was very charming. You have a very elegant way of communicating, which is calming, and you speak English like it's your first language. Very impressive, I guess I'm a little smitten ;-)

Nightwish is so good! Love Floor!

Naka the Mellowhead is crying to this lovely rendition. :-) Lovely reaction. I did not expect I'd like the song much, but I did too. Troy's contribution is great.

Oh you're such a sweetheart! This is a song that I didn't fully appreciate on the album either. It's definately good, an Floor has such a gorgeous voice on it. But damn, that live version of it really hit home, I cried too. Nightwish does that a lot, as does another favorite of mine, the great Devin Townsend 😁. His acoustic version of "Funeral" so insanely powerful, that one always gets me. You should check that one out😊 Greetings from Norway 😊

Your crying was adorable ! Loved the reaction. “Music Soothes The Soul”

MUCHAS MUCHAS GRACIAS

My blu-ray arrives tomorrow, can't wait!!!

Привет, Настя! Крутое видео! Приятно удивлен и рад тебя видеть и слышать)) Mia ®Молот Ведьм. Цём

I for one, love sentimental tears from reactions. It doesn't take anything from it, it just shows love for the music that moves you. Great reaction.

it's too long ago and we are waiting with impatience for new stuff from nightwish. this concert reaches for our hearts. I think, nightwish fans are very emotional peoples. Naka, i see you at discord. Beautiful reaction.
