This way we could just select with our remote control which camera stream we wanted to watch at any given time. I have seen none of that. Has anyone done this, do you know?

Jukka is incredible. His work on Ghost love score and Ghost river alone is insane. It's really sad that his insomnia drove him out of the band. Perhaps the fact that the rest of the band are vampires caused him stress at night even though they promised not to feed on him ;)

perfection..

Good to hear you giving Jukka some love, he is very much under appreciated sometimes.

Some late reaction, You should know that the concert almost had to be cancelled due to serious symptoms of Jukka's Insomnia, but as they say "the show must go on!". He drummed this entire concert like a let loose demon suffering a (real) ginormous migraine (you can see somewhere in the video he's laying on his drumset, afterwards he said he tought his head was going to explode), what a commitment!!! Do Kai is a real good drummer too, I'm still very blown away by Jukka and in my opinion he was the best they ever had. (Hannes Van Dahl, friend of..., drummer of sabaton AND husband of Floor, sayd once "If there is a drummer that can do it all, it's powerhouse Jukka!)

Need to see Marco's first band Tarot. React to " Crows Fly Back " or " Tides " from the Undead Indeed live special. Or his first music video " Wings of Darkness " from 1986

Just a small thing, what he said at the end was "Kiitos" which means thank you.

God i love that solo near the end..

I've heard this several times, and it continues to SLAY me. In just the right way. THIS is how to do a cover, They didn't try to imitate the original, but instead put it through the Nightwish filter. They did it how THEY wanted to do it. Remember that when YOU are doing Nightwish covers. Do YOU! There was a lot of emotional baggage for the guys that night. They had decided that they had to let Tarja go. They had known for a long while that it wasn't working, and that she was ready to go anyway. They decided to do a clean, abrupt amputation. It worked out very well for her, as she was able to play the victim, and Tuomas was targeted as the bad guy. Which led to The Poet and Pendulum.

I´d like to appreciate Emppu.

Yes I know who you're talking about. We all blamed Tuomas back then! But now I'd say (unpopular opinion alert) that Nightwish music actually had become better in general sense after Tarja left. Now they like rely less on just a voice quality but make more complex arrangements and all.

@@AntonNidhoggr Emppu does a great job here, I fully agree. Not many people can play Gilmore’s stuff and get away with it like Emppu did. Great job. About nightwish and the reaction above: yes, that pretty much sums it up. Good to see you can finally see things in the right perspective. What happened, happened because it needed to happen. Tarja and Nightwish had outgrown each other, and the relationship of the fanbase towards Tarja vs. the band had grown to unhealthy proportions, worshipping Tarja like she was some kind of godess. And of course Tarja’s own behaviour inevitably caused great tension in the band. Her dismissal enabled Tuomas to hire a completely different singer, which enabled him to change the musical style. Anette got a lot of hate, which she for the most part did not deserve, although her live performance was her weak spot. But she brought something new to the band, and so did Floor. In the end the band has grown much more mature, both as a band as well as on personal level, and the music has become more mature and versatile with better and more complex compositions than ever before. It’s good to see that now more of the fans recognise this and it’s good to see people stop focussing on the negative aspects that surrounded Tarja’s dismissal back then. Which is about time. After all, it’s 15 years ago. 😉🤘

I absolutely love Pink Floyd 😍 and I must say NW did an amzing job here:) and that is also why Pink Floyd is one of the best bands in the music history....

I have heard an music director / producer say that this was not a cover of High Hopes....it was a "Tribute"! Covers can be done by anyone, and most of them are poorly done. This was a true tribute to the greatness that is Pink Floyd. Marko nailed the vocals...of course Tuomas was exceptional!!! Jukka....I have heard other reactors say that Jukka was ordinary! They obviously haven't listened to this song...he was freaking amazing!!! And now we get to Emppu....what can be said about Emppu...except he was spot on and freaking killed it! This was a Tribute...one great band honoring one of the greatest!

I would love to see your reaction to Slaying the dreamer from the same concert!! :)

I think if anyone had pulled off Pink Floyd cover it's NightWish, Love his voice. This was Awesome!!

Check the group called " Ocean Souls " they are the best to cover NW. They also do instrumentals and choir versions - pure magic. In July this group meet the international fans in Kitee (if no Corona).

Awesome!

Absolutely love this version!!

This is a statement from Jukka (the drummer) talking about his tough decision to remove himself from playing drums for Nightwish on tour and on the next record due to heavy Insomnia: "My heart is in that drum seat,so the ultimate dream is to some day come back and do what i love the most". I know alot of drummers that love what they do,but i think the strongest words of passion came from Jukka. His heart is in that drumseat,so whatever he is doing now (handling management for Nightwish) he enjoys,but he is not truly happy until he knows he can drum again,preferably on a day to day basis. Everyone,even Floor was positive that he would return some day. But Floor just coming out of a burned out state of mind then,choosed her words more carefully. I see no reason why Jukka and Kai cant duo drum it out on certain songs. Im sure it would sound awesome! Regardless,i hope he recovers 100%....some day.

Hi there Travis, hi Susi. I've actually find your channel not long ago, and I love the content you guys are making, and your music is always super mesmerising, love the songs lyrics and especially the melodies you compose into your songs. I believe "Last man Standing" is my favorite by far ;) I've actually wanted to make a recommendation for you guys for another reaction video. Its actually another cover song called "The Sound of Silence", covered by Disturbed. The song however is originally composed by Simon & Garfunkel If you guys happen to react to it, i'm sure you and your viewers will like it.

watch "the islander". also sung by Marko..awesome..

Nice reaction, thank you. The four of them just owned the song that night. Same concert the Phantom video with Tarja and Marco was done. They played at this level knowing the bands future was in doubt. They knew Tarja was going to let go after the concert. They are indeed pros, The Show Must Go On !

They´re the only band I know which makes covers sound even better than the original 🤣(the original is great, but I just prefer Nightwish version more). I also love Over the hills and far away, Walking in the air, Phantom of the Opera of course... And they also covered "Wild Child" back in 2003 on some of their live concerts! It´s definitely worth watching (Live Norway 2003). I love the original version by W.A.S.P., but Marko and the guys did a great job on it, especially the last half is insanely good, I think they captured the spirit.

So glad yall did this one definitely check out more of marko singing yall wont be disappointed

That's some sweet ass guitar in this song. Marco's singing as well. Love you guys

If u like Marcos voice you should defo react to The Islander or While Your Lips Are Still Red, both amazing songs
