Musicians appreciating other musicians always feels good.

I like how you are talking about Floor's confidence, because before she joined Nightwish she struggled exactly with that. Let's just say that she saved Nightwish and Nightwish saved her :)

To be honest best part about you guys found Nightwish is that we found The Wolf HunterZ. You guys rock!

According to Floor this concert is one of the highlights if not THE highlight of her career 🤘🏻😍

I love the line " it's hard to light a candle easy to curse the dark instead"... so profound, fits in all our lives

I'm a pink Floyd wrinkly from the 70s NW are the first band that get into my soul like Floyd did that's how rare these unique bands come around. This is not singles for the masses music, This music is for the spirit if you dare to let it in.

Floor had only been with the Band For Ten Months at this time. She learned the entire set list in Two Days When she Was Pulled in .

At the end, FYI: Floor gestures to the man in the high hat, Tuomas Holopainen. He plays all the keyboards, composes 95% of the music. Tuomas is 6'2", Marko Hietala (bassist/vocals) is 5'11". Lead guitar is Emppu Vuroinen, 5'3". He and Floor always kid around. Floor is a shade over 6', but wears 4" heels when performing, so their occasional dances together are a hoot. Every member of the band, including the drummer (Jukka Nevaleinen) replacement, Kai Hahto, is a master musician. Nightwish is like an all-star team, every player tops at their position. And I love you guys enthusiasm for music.

Ah if THREEsixteen impressed with their fireworks, he would faint on The Greatest Show On Earth live at Tampere. The outro isn't part of the song here but TGSOE at Tampere is, until the very end, is the complete original studio track.

That's the sound of 82,000 lives changed in one night.

HELL YEAH !!!! NIGHTWISH ARMY .. WEST VIRGINIA 1st BRIGADE HERE !!! .. love your reaction once again Suzy ...glad you brought your friend to discover the sheer MAJESTY that is NIGHTWISH ....

Oh our dearest Marko! He is an exceptional singer and musician in general and the only one entitled to wear a "Floor Jansen is my back up singer" t-shirt 😂😂😂 ( a wee Nightwish army inside joke). Everyone loves Marko! Bless his soul!

They started the gig with a blast and ended the same way. The whole concert it's a fantastic ride. You can choose any song from this concert and you will enjoy it

That's how you take a simple song about a rollercoaster. An turn it into a battle cry. This is one I play all the time. The picture session at the end. They do every show. Whether they are in front of 80000 or 800. They give the same show. Regardless of the venue. Tuomas has even said in a interview. He prefers the smaller venues "where you can smell the beer and the blood".

the way she captivates the crowd is amazing. their just putty in her hands

The amazing thing is that when most of those fans bought their tickets, Floor wasn't singing for Nightwish, and by this stage (badoom, Tish!) she had been with them 10 months and was still just the fill-in lead singer to allow them to complete their contractual obligations in completing the Imaginaerium world tour. I'm pretty sure it was the largest audience she had ever performed for. It was (as you can see) a perfect match and she had by that time become integrated into the band and an indispensable presence on stage. A few weeks later, after the end of the tour, she (along with troy Doneckly) became permanent members. The rest, as they say, is herstory.

🔊 "Clean-up on Aisle 5 - a gentleman has left his melted face on the floor..." 😱 What you hear coming out of Floor and Marko's mouths is nearly 60 years' combined experience.

Gonna mentioned a bunch of facts before this magical,legendary evening at Wacken Open Air in 2013. Floor had before stepping in as a "temporary singer" been out for a long time,suffering from a burnt out state of mind. During that time she had lost all her stage confidence. The guys in Nightwish never saw that as any problem,and they even stated: "We are gonna get that confidence back up in Floor,nothing else matters at this point". And this is more a guess then anything,as i never saw a statement about it but......i think Nightwish had this concert in Wacken in mind,a future goal once she accepted to join them permanently. It was her first major concert with them as a permanent singer,so Marco had the honor of introducing her early on in the concert. Imagine the nerves,the pressure on her behalf as well. But the guys in Nightwish were confident they had restored Floor back to her old self,and the rest is history. One of the best concerts with any band i have ever seen and heard,and the production is just flawless too! The guys in Nightwish has allways been a bunch of genuine,good guys with plenty of humor etc. But i noticed the massive difference after Floor joined. I watched back other live performances with Tarja and the few there is with Anette,and the guys`s good mood seems medium or hardcore suppressed. I even have a friend that got to interview them once during the Tarja era,and him having a crush on Tarja and maybe focusing "alot" on her,she sort of came off abit Diva-ish,and the other guys just tried theyr outmost to look like professionals,but a few of them had expressions,hand and body movement like "oh,here we go again....". They did not look relaxed and comfortable! I did not use to see this back then,i was a massive Tarja supporter myself......i guess i was blind in many ways. Floor Jansen showed me this massive change,without even having it as her agenda,she just is her own sweet,adorable,funny,sassy,charming self with a stage performance,and vocal performances noone else comes remotely close to. I noticed Tarja being more and more "cold" to theyr crowds of live audiences,everything was about herself,not the band kind of. I dont mention Anette much in all of this,because she is not to blame really. They tried to move on from Tarja with Anette,and she did her best....sadly it didnt last,as i think she was never meant to do metal. She got a good pop even rock voice,but metal just deafened her live. No disrespect though,she tried her best. Floor has allways had a huge heart,she loves connecting to her supporters in the crowd or through other platforms. She does naturally what Tarja didnt. Thats why soo many old Tarja supporters turned around completely when Floor joined. Take Ghost Love Score f.ex,it took Floor 1 evening in Wacken to have The Nightwish Army rename it "Ghost Love Floor". We could also see it on the guys in Nightwish. The guys have never looked more relaxed,you can see it on theyr faces that "we finally got the singer we dreamt of having,over all theese years!" Tuomas himself said something that speaks volume: "Floor will be the last vocalist in Nightwish",explaining it with "If she for some reason dediced to leave the band,Nightwish will be no more." He also meant "There is no better vocalist out there for Nightwish" with that statement. Troy that joined them permanently with Floor coming in,said in a interview "i did not like Nightwish`s first vocalist". Something tells me Troy when hearing Floor sing went "im gonna accept to join the band myself!". He has been helping Nightwish for a long time prior to this,you can hear alot of pipes and stuff on records,before he was a official member. The harmony,the smiles on everyones faces (wich only happened after Floor joined) & the chemistry does speak volume for Floor as a person too. She healed up,improved and just completed a allready great band. Now its a amazing band! A band in wich other bands own supporters are jealous of,as every member is so insanely talented,and they complete eachother perfectly. Nightwish started out with childhood friends more or less,that grew in different directions. Today? Today Nightwish is a family! They treat eachother like family. I like how you said it "you can tell that they love eachother". Btw,i loved Jons facial expression changes throughout this song!🤣That was pretty much me by myself,first time hearing them. I think this was the first performance you were properly introduced to her many longlasting,legendary windmills. I have heard vocalists of all genres go: "How on earth doesnt Floor get dizzy from that?! When i try that,i can never go for that long,or im gonna fall over,mess up my performance". Since you love her sass,maybe you should watch her enter the stage,catwalking with confidence to the start of a song: Nightwish - Shudder Before The Beautiful (OFFICIAL LIVE) One of theyr heavier songs,and one of my favourites.

Yeayyy Suzi back!!! Next Nightwish should be "Devil an Deep Dark Ocean" live from Buenos Aires.

jon, welcome to the nightwish army...

For more Marko as a lead, Nightwish's High Hopes Pink Floyd Cover live from End of an Era The Islander live from Tampere

Daaaaaaamn, I need a time machine NOW. I must go to that concert, no matter what.

I think it was shortly after this concert they offered her the job full time. At the time of the Wacken concert Floor was still the replacement singer for Anette.

That's how you close a show in front of an 82k attendance concert. 😀

i deliver food for Waitr. often, after my last delivery, i put this on and Crank It! bittersweet moment, as Jukka, the drummer, toasts to the camera. other than one special occasion, his last performance on stage with the band. He was forced to step down from performing due to his chronic insomnia. Cheers to you, brother! he works on the business side of the band now.

A speech by a Valkyrie Queen to The Nightwish Army

Nice reaction! FYI: There were 82,000+ in the audience. Nightwish is the most reacted to artist or band in the history of music reactions videos. Floor is the 3rd and still current female lead singer of Nightwish (est. 1996) She had been with the band for little over 10 months at the time of this concert on 03 August 2013, when she was 32. She started performing in her first Metal Band, After-Forever at the age of 16. After that band disbanded, she started her own band called Revamp. Which was on hiatus, when she received a call from Nightwish to take over the female lead singing duties mid-tour. The rest is herstory.

Last song at the Wacken 2013 concert. Where to go from this - Why not the first song, the one that set the pace for the concert, "Dark Chest Of Wonders" (sorry, on my mobil, don't have the link right now). Other things worth mentioning to someone who see Nightwish for the first time - 82.000 in the crowd, Floor is 183 cm (6 ft 1?) plus 3-4 inches of heels, and I think the picks the lead/rhytm guitarist throws out has "Nightwish" printed on one side and his name "Emppu" on the other side. Please carry on with the Nightwish views/reactions, you can pick any song from the Wacken 2013 concert and I promise you will not be disappointed. Cheers / B.

Floor skipping across the stage makes me happy :)

most musicians run for the cover of towels and dressing rooms Nightwish runs to us...the army ;-)

Suzi all expecting to dish out a floorgasm, then gets slammed herself with a Marcogasm!😂

Floor, in my opinion the most versatile Singer of our Lifetime 🤗❤The female Freddy Mercury The Band has one Leader Tuomas (the Keyboarder)

This was the last performance of the concert that night as it came right after " Song of Myself " witch you should check out next. Those two songs back to back = Multiple Floorgasms LOL!! As was the whole show :) Keep em comin! You guys are awesomeness 10 fold!!

This is the most perfect show closer ever. And it's so great to see Tuomas (the guy at the keyboards) so obviously loving the experience. He carries entirety of Nightwish on his shoulders, and there is no doubt Floor Jansen was like an angel sent from heaven to him.

The best part for me was that you did watch this till the end and notice that nightwish does credit everyone... It is important for them and no matter their main thing is to be taking care of audience, singer, audience...

Jon pointing and yelling "fireworks!" at the end was such a wholesome moment . . . and so fitting for a song that has a carnival / amusement park motif!

I would like to add, that this concert was the final of the year and was in front of 86,000+ people. Also the first tour with Floor Jansen as lead. I love Nightwish.

Greatest Show on Earth Live - Nightwish

You just aren't human if this band doesn't evoke an emotional response from you.

Yeah... fire works nightwish _the greatest show on earth live @tampere.

I always feel great when I see musicians appreciate and love each other's music and style.

You HAVE to do Nightwish The Greatest Show On Earth Live, and you should do it together,

This guy needs to watch the greatest show on earth with you

Nightwish forever!💙🇫🇮

very good reaction thanks both of you a very good concert is nightwish rock in rio 2015 floor get mad and you see floor growlen in yours a empty hope a nd a good wishmaster

"Oh my gosh" indeed. Tuomas found his shangri-la when Floor joined Nightwish. Phenomenal band with all members masters of their craft and some. Marco and Floors voices together 🙏❤️. Thank you for an epic reaction. Paul 🙏😊👍❤️

They don't do that because of the money or fame. It's just love for music and fans. And we love them back!

Tuomas writes awesome music and they perform it so well in the front of and with the audience. And yes, they are still humble giving notice not only their all fans but a credit to the tour bus drivers and all members around them too.

If someone didn't already say it the photo that they were taking at the end was used for the cover of the CD and DVD for this concert.

I never cease to love seeing them bow, turn around to take a selfie with the crowd. I would love to see or even have copy of that selfie. Played lead guitar in bands from hair metal to metal for 40 years and I find that genuine moment of respect for the fans most awesome

that roar at the end is the sound of 85K of the Nightwish Army

Off course it was a big moment for them, this was the biggest crowd they have ever played for.

Eber falls : We are become fire. Amazing Finnish band.

Floor giving her 1000000000 percent energy was just amazing to watch. Great reaction mam sir

Big smile on my face here!!! Thanks for such a great reaction. Yes, jaw-dropping, head-bangin' stuff! It's nice to see people really get into it, really FEEL IT, as opposed to just the blank stares from my friends - how sad and confusing - never will figure this one out!

Can you imagine playing in front of 83,000 people, holy moly!

Welcome to the World of NIGHTWISH. A talented group of musicians.

You're Amazing..🌺.both of You.💞...you know All bout respect ..🤘💎....Nightwish Army is with You anyway 💜🦉👑

I had tears flowing thoughout this reaction. Tears of joy. Thank you so much!

I just noticed this: when they were taking pictures one of them was chosen for the album/dcd cover.

Over 82,000 people went to this show!!!

Of course she's on fire she's just got her contract before the show.

Yeah Suzi's back! Nice to meet another member of The Wolf HunterZ band. Hope you get to came back and react again John. Awesome job, guys. You all rock!

Jon just experienced the Floorgasm!

True, theres a love affair between this band and the fans....band became even more complete when Floor joined vocalist

Awww he's about to have his 1st Floorgasm!❤

when Floor whips her hair, being she is Dutch we call it her Dutch Windmill

After "Ghost Love Score" my favorite song and performance from this concert was "Ever Dream". Recently it was voted as the top Nightwish song, so they posted the live version on their official KZfaq. You should check it out.

And so much energy for the last song of the show still.

A VAlkyre, A vaking, A wizard, A dwarf and a Viking. What does mankind needs more?

And that`s how you end a show ladies and gentlemen!

Time for Dark Chest of Wonders 😉

I like this guy. Bring him on for more reactions! He needs to experience more Nightwish! haha You guys rock!

He needs to watch the whole show from start to finish!!!

Greetings from Finland & thanks for your reaction to this song. Although Floor is an amazing vocalist, she's also very much down to earth. Just last week I watched a video on her YT channel in which she was using a sledge hammer & an electric drill to erect a corral for her two horses. She also said that she doesn't work out, but instead uses hard manual labor to stay fit.

If you watch some of their other concerts they do this same thing. They love their audience and fans and it's no wonder their fans are loyal and love them!

Hey Nightwish fans. I've heard 5k subs can be an important milestone for a youtube channel, so let's get these guys there, we can do it. :)

The Joy. 😯 It's a beautiful thing.

Nightwish is the best band in the world (my opinion) 😄 If there would be a slogan (if there isn´t one already) it might be: "I don´t listen to music, I listen to Nightwish"

Nightwish, my favorite band. 💪

MORE MORE MORE!!!! You guys absolutely rock! Your reactions are so great to watch. I really, really like your style :-)

Check out floor Jansen as the front of Revamp - disdain at graspop (lyrics) her writing.....

Never............gets................old!! Seeing someone's first reaction to this band........welcome to the Army :)

fantastic reaction guys, loved it. You have to watch "learn the setlist in 48 hours". It's a great documentary of Nightwish, in this documentary you can see how Floor started her Nightwish journey and a lot of other interesting stuff.!!

Best part about first time reaction to Nightwish, especially with other musicians is it always happens this way. Eyebrows go up, then the jaw drops.

Hi Friends , show him Ghost love score , Marijke , The Netherlands.

This is at the very end of an hour and a half, very high energy set - and they are still killing it!!

This sounds like the slower high def version. The true speed of the song, very slightly faster, sounds better

Fantastisch job guys. Greatest Show on Earth Tampere is 24ish minutes long. Well worth it.

My favorite song from Nightwish? All of them.

I am convinced that Marko is chanting half of the time, it resonates with my DNA somehow, yep we all came from the same place ALM.

that guy (and everyone else) needs more nightwish in his life ;)

Floor started fronting metal bands at the age of 16. 23 years. That's why she has that confidence and that stage presence plus I think she's finally found the band she really wants to be with.

with the energy they can build talk about a really coo quickened pace sounds like horses galloping damn that sounds awesome

Thank you guys! Bring jon back for some more Nightwish, he will be amazed!

NIGHTWISH (Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean) will blow your mind

On stage at the end, you see a band not only relieved that they had survived the trauma of having for a second time replaced their lead singer under dramatic circumstances, but having totally come out of it on top of the world. Several times since 1996 they had come close to folding. Here they were, the happiest they had been in several years. Floor herself had just come out of a major emotional burnout in which she had stepped away from music. They all felt reborn.

Allmost forgot.....Jon seemed to really enjoy the fireworks and pyrotechnics being on point with the beats in the song. If you ever invite him over again for a Nightwish reaction,you should try: Nightwish Dark Chest Of Wonders Live Wacken 2013. Its the first song they kicked off the concert with. It will leave you both jawdropping im sure.

Nice one guys, really looking forward to seeing you continue down the NightWish rabbit hole 🤘

This concert was the pinnacle of the turning point of the band that was Floor joining. When the this tour started, Anette was their lead singer and they were heading out to promote their new album, Imaginaerum, released in november 2011. Anette was fired mid tour and 48 hour later Floor had hopped on the first flight available to the U.S and joined them on stage for the first time.
