Where is the love button? I need a love button. Tank deserves the love ❤️

“So I didn’t see any of that shit...” Absolutely hilarious man. 😂😂🤣

He just didn't want to tell us that he's gonna react to a Nightwish song every day except Wednesday from now on :D

Seriously, i think Emppu would turn in to Gollum if someone would steal his ESP-EV-1. Emppu: They stole it from usss. Wicked, tricksy, false. Cops: What did they steal? Emppu: Myyy.......PRECIOUSSSS!

Just caught this. You mentioned their respect for the crew. During this pandemic all merchandise sales profits are being donated to their crew, every penny! Now that’s just awesome!

They should put Empu's Ev1 in the credits 😂

This song has one of my favourite lines of all time :) “it’s harder to light a candle easier to curse the dark instead”. My mantra for life. If life throws you shit you can sit there and grumble about it or you can try to find a solution/make the best of it. This year especially so. I gotta admit I’ve nearly given up a few times. But we’re still here! And with the Nightwish Army you never truly feel alone :)

Hi Tank! I say this knowing there will be many more Nightwish reactions coming but it has been a pleasure watching you fall in love with this band over the past 5 months as I did just last year. And thanks to you, I will never forget EV-1 and that a Buzzard is not only a bird. 🤘🎶😆

I got into Nightwish earlier this year around February...honestly, after going through their songs over the months, I also concluded that this has to be my favorite band ever. And I don't throw that phrase around lightly. (At age 44, I've seen and heard many many many bands and being a classically trained musician, on cello, I have heard great music but Nightwish is absolutely amazing) This Wacken show might be the best love performance there is!

Side note: The track playing at the end is actually the final track from Imaginaerum. It melds the themes of each song into a single piece. It's such a treat to listen to after listening to the album as a whole.

I had really hoped you would do the songs from the new album before you left Nightwish Wednesdays. 😢

"Jeeesus!" Nah, Tank... as Chase would put it, "Nightwish doing Nightwish things".

Nightwish isn't just a band, Nightwish is a powerful entity that explodes our feelings. Glad we live in a time when we can listen to their music. This has been a crazy ride and a perfect way to finish this year. You rule, Tank.

Just the fact that they can sound this good at the end of a 70 minute show is incredible. I agree completely - what a way to end a show. Unbelievable. Really sad to see Nighwish Wednesdays go away. I loved it.

Nightwish must haves: - God I love Marcus base ton ✅ - Emppu plays his signature ESP ev1 ✅ = good tank reaction 😂👍

When Floor is standing next to Tuomas and sings: “The beauty of this ride ahead...” Foreshadowing? Because since she became an official member it has been an incredible ride. So far.

Someone remarked on this last week, and now I cannot unsee it... Jukka really reminds me of my favorite drummer of all time: Animal 🤘🤘🤘Thanks for another great one!

as a new year's treat you should watch the ENTIRE wacken 2013 concert just for yourself in one sitting. it's hand down their best overall performance ever. don't need to react on it or anything, just treat yourself with it. it's one thing to react/view to all songs as standalone, but it's an entire different thing to watch the whole 1h40m set in one sitting.

Nightwish Band members know the whole show production is bigger than just them ! They appreciate all people who help with the show ! Much Respect to them 👏👏😝👍🇦🇺🏄‍♂️

Jukka is a beast. Kai is a machine.

This is seriously bittersweet, like you said. Your tears were cathartic for *me*. Thanks for the awesome adventure on which you took us all along. Your reactions have introduced new angles from which to appreciate the music of Nightwish. It’s been one hell of an emotional roller coaster!! 2020 what a dumpster fire during a shit blizzard *BUT* there were a few things I really enjoyed and looked forward to for this year. Your reactions are one & have been a major uplift. Thank you for sharing your love of music and gear. Thank for sharing your journey with us. Now: ever onward. (We’re gonna miss you when you get back to work but we’ll be happy for you also.) Much love, bro! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Hugs, love, peace, and courage to Claire!!! 💕💕💕

By listing the crew and techs of a concert...these people are now immortalized...they may not be well known...but evidence is now possible of what they've done. Nice! 👊

Yeah, the song was definitely fitting for the last Nightwish Wednesday! I'm sad to see it go but happy you'll still do Nightwish reactions from time to time. Exited to see more Sabaton on your channel from now on. Next time, you should do Beauty and the Beast (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aJqkhKyK0rGqiWQ.html), it's very old school Nightwish. Tarja was still the main vocalist, Marko isn't here yet (the bassist is Sami Vänskä) and Emppu isn't using his famous EV-1. *gasps* The video features Tony Kakko from Sonata Arctica and we all should says thanks to Tony, because he convinced Tuomas not to quit on Nightwish when he had problems with Sami back in the days. There is a great "chance" that without him we wouldn't be there still enjoying new Nightwish songs.

Seeing the end pose reminded me: Finnish Post has actually issued a Nightwish stamp with that group photo :D

Tank, I think you've only reached the tip of the iceberg with this band my friend. I just hope you'll go on with more Nightwish because this band is just amazing. Happy new year my friend! Cheers!

If you want to see Empuu play another guiter, you must watch "Over the hill and far away"...

After 1500 NW reactions, You and Chase are the best. FINLAND SAY THANK YOU.

What am I supposed to look forward to on Wednesday now? In all seriousness, Tank, thank you for taking us on this journey for the last 25 weeks. You helped me rediscover my love for this amazing band. Your breakdowns are honestly some of the best on KZfaq and you are genuinely honest with your critique and that we all appreciate. Can't wait to see how much your channel takes off in the next year man!

I this Video you can See how much everyone enjoyed the show. You can't Miss this giant smile on floors face

You need to watch Dark Chest of wonders from this show for the best ever light and pyro experience... so much better than the other versions you watched !!

Fun fact: I've been a Nightwish fan for 13 years now, but thanks to this channel I've learned what guitar is Emppu playing. 😂 Also, welcome to the Nightwish is my favorite band club!

I think it was Marco in an interview that said if I were to compare them to legendary rock drummers Kai is like Ian Paice and Jukka is like John Bonham

After of 2 hours of showing.....she's still alive... The Queen

Here's parting gift news :). Tuomas is now full member of Finnish Epic Black Metal band Darkwoods my Betrothed ! They are childhood friends and Tuomas was their session keyboardist back in the 90's. Here's short English comment from the band : Darkwoods My Betrothed are back and stronger than ever! A new album has been written with 8 songs that we feel are the best in the band's history. They will be recorded in February with the original line-up from 1993 with the notable exception that drums will be played by none other than Mr Kai Hahto and Mr Tuomas Holopainen is now a full member in the line-up. The album will be produced by Mr Tero Kinnunen who, of course, recorded our first demo tape back in 1993. So it's the old gang back together creating havoc and mayhem! Here's full story (In Finnish so you can practice your Finnish): www.soundi.fi/uutiset/metallipioneeri-darkwoods-my-betrodhed-palaa-pitkalta-levytystauolta-tuomas-holopainen-on-nyt-mukana-vakiojasenena/

Not announced yet, but I think they already knew it was settled, NW hit the jackpot with her and Floor felt right at home from the beginning.. There's also a story Thomas always wanted Floor as the replacement for Tarja but didn't want to break up her band After Forever back in 2005 so they went for another singer which ended up being Anette.. Also Floor was already in the business for 15 years at this point in 2013 with her previous bands After Forever and Revamp, so it was not really something new for her, just another band and crowd.. She was born to do this.. :P

Humble band with passioned crew who makes everything possible :)

Too bad it’s the last Nightwish Wednesday. So much more to discover

It's a real shame the Marko resigned from the band. He did leave the door open for maybe coming back, but he will be sorely missed

Sad to see reactors ending their weekly Nightwish...or Nightwish in general...hope you would have continued with the new album...but see you o Nightwish days in the future.

"It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead." One of those Nightwish lyrics that has stayed me with me for years. The meaning behind the line is obvious: at its core, it's hard to be optimistic and hopeful and not give in to the ease of resentment and bitterness. Despite how elementary it is (and how prevalent the message is throughout our life; we are constantly told to 'look at the brighter side of things'), it's easier said than done.

A lot of us took this journey with you, and enjoyed every step. Just... thank you.

Once upon a night we'll wake to the carnival of life... Ah man, that song has jumped straight into my top 5 Nightwish songs since I've first heard it... and, to add to it, I was at Wacken 2013 and did crowdsurf during it... truly an epic ride and one of the best memories of my life. This moment the dawn of humanity The last ride of the day.

Looking forward to Sabaton Saturdays. As I’m sure you noticed already, they’re such hams on stage...I always say when you see them you get a concert and a comedy sketch for the price of one. 😂

Seeing the tears in your eyes at the end of the song is the ultimate proof of how powerful the music this incredible band creates is. It also made me chuckle to myself thinking that you would be completely bawling by that point if you were to watch the entire performance. Love the band, love the vid, and looking forward to what comes next

Dear Tank. The tears I can see in your eyes are in mine too. Happy, sad & so grateful for all the stellar NW reactions you've gifted to us. 😎👍❤🤘🤘

To your early remark and the popup: I was at Floor's first show (Seattle) and had seen (what I didn't know at the time) was Annette's last show two days prior in Salt Lake City. Both shows were fantastic but I have to say it took a few moments of "Wait a minute...." before I realized it was Floor and not Annette up on the Sodo stage. Btw, SODO is short for South Downtown (as there is another Showbox venue, called Showbox Market near the famous Pike Market area of downtown Seattle). I love all eras of this band but yes, this is kind of a bittersweet video as it is the last song in this well known show. As I've said before, I must see them play in Europe!

Cheers Tank this for this journey, you own my and most people respect for what you've done in the la 5 months for Nightwish. #wewerehere Thanks you!!!

Respect, Tank, and I will always love your videos! Thank you for the ride!

I teared up at the end of this. It’s been a great journey with you man and so sad the Wednesdays are gone 😞😞

!!! Band-Maid Wednesday !!! !!! Band-Maid Wednesday !!! !!! Band-Maid Wednesday !!! Loved your Nightwish reactions, I love the band too. Have purchased most of the Nightwish albums. I look forward to seeing what band you latch onto next.

Nightwish's music kept me strong throughout this year. I am sure that I'm not the only one who relied on these Nightwish Wednesdays every week to enjoy your reactions and be lifted up to the sky with every song they have. Thank's Tank!

I know wat You mean . I Saw Them in 2020 fore the first time. And now i must Hear Them every Day.

This should be great. Thanks for all the laughs, tears, and windmills. Will definitely keep watching your reactions. And do check out Human Nature when you get a chance.

Gosh DAMN it Nightwish !!! Why do you have to add onions to your songs, got to clean my eyes out. Never seen them in concert, now its a HAVE too. Good job @TankTheTech Keep IT UP 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

You are a great guy Tank. Have been Nightwish fan since 99. Seen them many times. Last in Oslo in november 21. And I met Floor during the breakfast in the hotel the day after. She is so down to earth and nice. It was so great! I both Tarja and Anette, but Floor is really special to me, and the best thing i could say to her was that i loved her..! Yes, i fanboyed really hard!😉🤣

Just admire your honesty here, thank you, miss your Nightwish reactions.

this reaction warmed my heart ... I couldn't help but cry like every time I listen to this song. Thanks Tank !!!!!!!

A fantastic way to end it off. This is easily one of my favorite Annette era songs. It's like an anthem!

Love You Man, I had the same feeling about other reactors - "Nightwish Army will boost up my channel" - Love Your honesty Man, You had the balls to admit that first reactions were just for views. But we've all seen Your journey and we all know it's legit, I'm Polish and I would love to drink a lot of vodka with You, Tank, that's how we show respect, we drink with people who we love or like :) cheers Mate, Na Zdrowie :)

Right there with you man. 54 years old and only a few months ago got into Nightwish. I've bawled, smiled and laughed right along with you. Never missed a Wednesday. It's amazing how this combination of artists can bypass your brain and dig straight into your soul. I've seen more than a couple men my age that didn't even understand the words or what was being said but were still in tears during Dead Boys Poem or The Islander. That's why I give Nightwish the biggest compliment that I can give them. They are master bards.

Nightwish truly are a collection of beautiful human beings. The best of us, and that's why they have our love

Damn it. I'm crying. Again. Thanks Tank. that was so cool. Edit: sorry, forgot something, one thing the European bands always do that American bands pretty much never do is come out for a curtain call style bow. The fans thank them for the show and they thank the fans for coming. It is so beautiful to see that. Sorry edit two: 25 weeks ago, "I'm sorry my mind was not blown." Now, "my favorite band of all time. " LOL. Yup. We ALL saw that coming. Thanks for being you, Tank.

First of all we are so happy you to be one of us, Fans of this Imaginaerum music that Tuomas and "guys" have created. Secondly we Finns are quite humble people and we, like Tuomas knows, that these long time crew members makes things happen and can be trusted to offer this journey to us to wonder!

Sad to see it's last Nightwish Wednesday. It's been something I look forward to each week, although because I'm in Australia, it's been Nightwish Thursday lol. My 14 month old son also loves Nightwish, he gets entranced and jigs along too. Pretty much ever since he was born, he'd fall asleep easily to Nightwish when he was unsettled, and he smiles when he sees your face come up on the screen now too. Nightwish is a very special band, and I feel that your videos are special as well. Keep up the good work 🤘

Tank thank you for letting me take this adventure with you. I love Nightwish and you made the adventure even better. I was a little melancholy watching the last Nightwish Wednesday. Thank you again for your hard work and one day I hope to see a purple ESP EV-1 on your wall.

Im late to the party but ive watched all your Nightwish reactions and I freakn Love you Tank!!!!! Thank you crazy man!! xoxo

It was indeed a fitting ending to the Nightwish Wednesday. About wardrobe: Did you know that Floor gives all her dresses away she used on stage? I find that very cool because she always has beautiful dresses on stage. A recommendation would be one of their resently released older stuff. Its stuff from around the beginning of this century.

I recently picked up the 5 disc Vehicle of Spirit set, 3 DVDs, Wembley Show, Tampere Show and Extras with the audio of the live Wembley show on 2 CDs. "Last Ride of the Day" is sandwiched between "Ghost Love Score" and "The Greatest Show on Earth" as the last three tracks of Wembley. I have always enjoyed my daily commute, it is MY TIME and usually about 40-45 minutes and it is my podcast and music time. I listened to the live audio the last two days of my commute and finished up CD 2 this morning and this track is the one I have heard the least of Nightwish and DAMN, what a great live track. After having made my way through all of the Nightwish studio albums and now the live releases, as brilliant as ALL of the singers are, THE DRUMS AND BASS man, especially on the live shows just DRIVE this band so consistently. They are all excellent musicians, but as a comparison to other live shows I've seen, my head keeps going back to Iron Maiden and how Steve Harris' bass and that galloping sound drives Maiden, especially how you FEEL them at a live show. I guess i need to figure out how to make it to one of the LA shows in October! ;) Thanks again Tank, have enjoyed going back through your reactions on your Nightwish Wednesday journey.

I do believe we have a new division in the Nightwish Army. Let's call it "Tank's Tankers Brigade". Sign me up for that one. This is the very song that got me into Nightwish. And as you, I've been going down this rabbit hole for about 3 yrs now. Love this band, love your channel and really love your tech tips and info you give to us, your "Tankers". Keep rockin' Tank. ✌🤘

A band that loves each other, the fans, the crew. Besides talent one of the main reasons I respect them and defend them.

You said it.. emotions and feelings.. THAT'S the difference for me as well. I tear up on almost every song by them... can't explain it. It just strikes a certain part of me unlike any other band?!!? And I'm 45 years old! I listened to a crap-ton of music, but THIS BAND IS ON TOP!

"So Tuomas, what key do you prefer to write in?" Tuomas: "ALL of them. In the same song!" Looking forward to more Nightwish reactions in future, you still have so much to discover from their back catalogue.

About that last phrase: what's interesting, it's not gonna disappear or fade out as the years pass. If you love them - it's forever) 20 years ago I thought that it was just a phase)) ha. Nope.

It's even more unreal seeing Nightwish live. Hope this whole situation will be over soon and we can enjoy their live concerts again. I attended last concert of Decades tour in Helsinki and after that concert I was already waiting for next one.

I went through like 20 or 30 of your videos before I even found out about Nightwish Wednesday (which is a bit ironic considerung your thoughts about channel-boosting at the end). KZfaq's algorithm sure is weird sometimes, since they're one of my all-time favorite bands. You sent me on a nostalgia trip watching you get into the music I love, allowing me to re-live those same first-time emotions. Good memories, man. Thank you for that!

Best concert closer since "We are the Champions". Great video and admire your honesty at the end. Very cool.

No man pls noooo. Nightwish Wednesday is the main reason why i love this day in the week

So there is really just one thing that I love about watching Nightwish live performances. No matter what song, or who the members of the band are at any given point in time... They all look like they are having the time of their lives on that stage. I'm not even a huge Nightwish fan, but it warms my heart to see that.

Nightwish is without a second thought an amazing band. They take the top seat for me as well. One day I'm dreaming of the day that I get to go and see them live!! It blows my mind that their Floor's first show was up where I live in Seattle!! That definitely made me smile. :) Tank, these videos have been a highlight of my week for a long, long time. Thank you so much for doing this! I appreciate it. I'm not upset or disappointedthat it came to an end, but I'll definitely miss Nightwish Wednesdays. Totally stoked for Sabaton Saturdays!! I love that band. :)

Just relieved that Nightwish is going to continue on this channel. I really like the tech approach you bring to your reactions. I've never even thought about a tech's work before following your channel. Definitely worth the ride. And "Tank Notes" are awesome too. I'm going to catch the ride on Sabaton Saturdays. Cheers from Brazil!

Tank my man! That was a lit🔥 end to Nightwish Wednesday 2020 and of course a perfect ending to a Nightwish Wacken concert. I see you, Nightwish and EV-1 🎸 😂 again in 2021. Keep it up🤘🏽🇳🇱

Hey Tank, just wanted to give you a little more info on the appreciation that Nightwish Shows. I went to the 2018 tour. The band had put out a best of cd for the tour. They gave everyone that walked through the door a free copy of the CD. This happened on every show of the tour. What band does that? NONE!!!

Love that Floor was walking round to stand next to the other band members as if to say “thanks for letting me part of this guys”, and now you too are “part of this” Much respect dude 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

I totally agree with you on the emotions, I'm only into Nightwish for a little longer than you and Chase but its just blown me away. I'm not a huge music fan normally but this is something more than music. I dont go to concerts or such but Nightwish will change that. I -have- to see them live with my daughter. The only other band I wish I had seen live is Dire Straits.

“I will not headbang.” 😂🤣 Maybe install a stoplight 🔥🤙

Thanks for the interesting and heartfelt reaction! I've been listening to this band since I was very young, around 2007 (more or less) and they've been my favorite for all those years. Back then I was in a really dark place and their music was the only thing that got through. Whether it was the lyrics or the melodies, I don't know, but their songs made me feel less of a robot and more of a person and that was how I started thinking I could get better. I am doing much better now and I've grown and changed, but every time I listen to them or see them in concert I fall for their music all over again. I am just so happy to have their music in my life.

"This is now my favorite band of all times". Right there with you Tank. I only discovered Nightwish 2-3 years ago, thru watching reaction channels like this one, and I now feel exactly the same way. Nightwish is easily my "if you could only ever listen to one band again, for the rest of your life, who would it be?" band. I now own a bunch of their CDs and can't wait to own the rest. There's a lot of crossover songs because, besides the studio albums I also bought the live CDs for the End of an Era show and Showtime Storytime from Wacken 2013, and I don't mind at all. I love hearing the songs performed by the different singers. It doesn't matter which one. I love all the versions. So once again, right there with you Tank.

You have been talked about in Finland just as a roadie as like a legendary roadie way before you started this KZfaq channel. I have been watching you for a long time but right at the first vid my instinct was whispering something like is this the Tank, or maybe its just a common nickname in the industry but for a while like maybe for a half year or a quarter of a year I knew that you are the dude the Tank and I have to say thank you so freaking much for all the great moments and not just on here (which have been awesome) and I hope that people get to enjoy your true talent that is on building us fantasies that happen on stage.

I love how after his viewing ended, his recommended videos listed 4 Destiny 2 video's, specifically MyNameIsByf. This makes me happy.

You've quickly become.of my favorite reactors because of the genuine responses, fun personality, and insight. Sad to see Nightwish Wednesdays end but excited for the future. Fingers crossed that you'll be able to see them live soon!

Yhea for my Is impossible not headbang to this Song Is One of my favorite, to play too ( i'm a keyboardist of a local metal band) and this Song Is amazing 🤟🤟🤟

rumor has it that Jukka was the inspiration behind the Muppets drummer Animal hmmmmm 14:06 an entirely legitimate reaction after a Nightwish show...a teary eyed "oh my God"

Somebody has probably mentioned this, but just to let you know again Tank, I love the respect, passion and self-irony and general humour and enjoyment that you put into each of your videos with special consideration for Nightwish of course. It's a real wonderful feature of yours. Please keep it going! Sincerely A loyal subscriber

your nightwish story is what started mine, the very first nightwish song i heard was Ghost Love Score. I had only recently discovered reaction videos and i kept seeing nightwish, had no idea who they were. One day I thought.. "fine, ill check one out". As luck would have it, it was your first reaction video that I clicked on. I have been on this journey with you, although I have most likely devoured much more and much faster since you had to wait for reaction videos. They have become my favorite band as well. A kind of hobby I have gotten into is watching your reaction to a video and then Chase's reaction to the same video, I love to see the different views of each song. I'm going to miss nightwish wednesday but you have gained a faithful subscriber in me! I share your hope of seeing nightwish live someday, here's to that coming true!

Thanks to you Tank! It's a pleasure to watch your reactions and comments on gear, pyro etc. Greets from Finland!

Dude What a ride it's been 5 months for you and let me tell you for me it's been over 20 years and I still get bumped up and emotional no matter the Era, We are here to relive our past and link it with your present, my regards from Dominican Republic.

😢 I love me some Nightwish Wednesdays. Was discovering the songs with you. I love this performance so much! You can tell they were just enjoying themselves up on that stage. It really comes across in this performance. What a way to end the show! What a way to end Nightwish Wednesdays! Thank you, Tank! 🙌

What a suitable end for Nightwish Wednesday. Well played Tank. Now you got a slot open, what about.... Hmmm, a Tank Tuesday/Thursday where you share a song with us that you love, or something YOU have always wanted to check but for whatever reason haven't.

I’ve been on the journey with you. I as well can’t wait to see Nightwish for the first time!!! My 7 year old daughter tells me to listen to two different bands now. It is either Linkin Park or as she says, “The band that sings Neverland!!!” Hope we get to see bands soon in the U.S. soon!!! Keep up the great content, but will miss Nightwish Wednesday!!!

Been so enjoyable to watch your reactions to Nightwish - big thanks to you Tank! I'll be a bit off road here, but I noticed that you played Strapping Young Lad in the background to one video, don't remember which one, if it even was Nightwish or some other reaction of yours - anyway, one of my all time fav bands, so was happy to hear it. Also been thinking of commenting on your Slayer poster: I was around when trash/speed metal started and I was more of an Anthrax fan then Slayer fan. I thought they were more fun and experimental then Slayer and back in the days there were HUGE discussions which band was the best - you have probably heard of it. People almost got into literal fighting when discussing which band was the best. I never saw Slayer live, but Anthrax I saw in Stockholm, I think it was 1987 and what a concert - loved it! At last, looking forward to Sabaton Saturdays (witty name 😊) Oh right, forgot, please listen to "Bye Bye beautiful" by Nightwish - can't find a good live performance and the official video to it isn't that great (sound is, but the video itself), but the song is a killer, best one on "Dark passion play" if you ask me. I think (only my personal theory) the reason for them not performing this song live (from what I know anyway), is that it's a good bye song to Tarja.
