It was not announced that Nightwish would perform the Phantom both nights in Amsterdam, so it was a surprise for the crowd when Henk Poort came on stage. Many had forgot the promise Floor made in 2019. In a glimpse you also could see the smile on Tuomas face.

@jessicakoster2543 Жыл бұрын

Floor and Henk did announce it, back in 2019, on Beste Zangers. And Nightwish has never refuted or canceled it. I was there on the 27th and wasn't surprised at all. But, even though I knew Henk was coming, I was still jumping up and down in my seat and screaming my lungs out!

They did try to keep this a surprise as much as they could. It definitely was not announced that this would happen prior to this specific show. They did not have it listed on the setlist. They didn’t play it in rehearsal, playing it only in their ears to check, so that anyone in the venue would not hear. This is what Floor said herself on social media, “Fun fact: We did soundcheck only using our in-ears so that people at the venue (working or not) would not know about the SURPRISE happening that night!”

@@kentk2215 And the fact that they were sound checking in a different way in the only country where there's a reason for such a deviation? Doesn't really take a genius to figure that one out. Plus, the audience aren't present for the sound checks. I'm fairly autistic, so for me it's really simple: Are the members of Nightwish decent or are they the kind of people who, when the know nearly all the Dutch fans have been waiting and hoping for this for three years would just cancel or ignore it? I choose to believe they are good and decent people, therefore, the Phantom was on the setlist. 1+1=2 It's also the autistic part of me that can be harsh, so i apologize if i've offended anybody.

What that was, at the end? A D6 held for 12 seconds... World class. Henk learned growling in 2019, for his and Floor's rendition of this song, at Beste Zangers. It was a surprise for her. Floor had a musical crush on him, since she saw him as the phantom, in her youth. At Beste Zangers they immediately connected and became friends. She started the season with her rendition of "Vilja Lied", sung for him, as the very first song. Most of the other singers didn't know her, just knew she was a Metal vocalist. Their faces, when she killed that song, from "The Merry Window"... Priceless... Each and every of her performances from that show, is top notch and worth reacting to.

He did the growling as a surprise to Floors Nightwish metal background at 'Beste Zangers', and she had a huge surprise smile on her face to that, after they only had one rehearsal..,without his growl. So I guess, singing with NW, promise fulfilled, there is the growling, and I love it. When Marco left, I said from the beginning, why not get Henk to replace him. Might be a surprising temporary career change, LOL.

By the way, you need to check out Buenos Aires 2012, just to see how Floor has progressed from the beginning of her Nightwish career. You'll also be able to hear how she has gone from an unsure, insecure lead vocalist, to the one you just heard hold that note for 11 seconds.

It was the first time in 17+ yrs that they performed this song. Marko was an awesome phantom, very gritty and aggressive, but he didn't like this song. So once Tarja left he said he didn't want to sing this anymore and he never did. It was not announced but once the first notes hit we knew Uncle Henk would be there, cause Troy wouldn't be able to sing this. It's hard to see in the video, but Tuomas was definitely conducting the other band members while playing keyboards, it was awesome to see how he did that. I had seen Floor and Henk perform this song in a slightly different arrangement at PinkPop, but seeing it with Nightwish was even better.🤘🏽🖤
