You're a fan of Pink Floyd and Marco's vocals, I will add to the echo of many and say you need to see/hear the Live cover of "High Hopes". Enchanting.

Dead Boys Poem is crazy in Buenos Aires, I just don't understand how Floor can hit high mix register whilst being really sick... How's the Heart is great for acoustic, but don't miss out on the studio version for those REALLY low bass vocals from Marco.

I love seeing you reacting/analysing Nightwish 😊 Fun fact: Nightwish has helped me deal with my anxiety and depression a lot better than my former therapist did in almost four years going to see her. I was born with spina bifida and later on developed hydrocephalus, this condition damaged some parts of my brain, which according to my neurologist have direct impact with my mood swings. I rediscovered Nightwish last year (used to listen to it here and there but nothing like now) every time I feel bad, whether be sad, anxious, or angry I grab my iPod and listen to Nightwish on repeat for hours until I fall asleep and feel a lot better afterwards

If you haven't seen her performance of Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort...... well its good.

I wholeheartedly recommend both their take on High Hopes and Yours is an Empty Hope. Marko really does Pink Floyd justice, and Floor's performance in Empty Hope is something that might surprise you

I hope you get a chance to do Yours Is An Empty Hope ( Live in Mexico City, they just released is great.) at some point. It would be really interesting to hear a technical breakdown of the things Floor does in that song. Also, I Want My Tears Back simply because of how much fun that song is and I know you will be grinning through the whole thing which I love to see. Love your reactions!

Greetings from Finland, the most metal country in the world with little over 700 metal bands per 1M citizens, no other country comes even close & e.g. the U.S. has only about 50/1M. It was great to watch this reaction to yet another amazing Nightwish performance at Tampere, a city about 80 miles from where I live. So thank you & take care and stay safe for more great reaction videos to come.

I don’t think you’ve done their cover of High Hopes yet, have you? Beautiful vocals by Marco.

Floor’s very proud mam, dad and sister in the audience during this concert... was somewhat emotional for Floor... (her sis is a gifted singer as well by the way).

It's just Americans don't want to see music that isn't from their country. It's not really an "evil cooperations" thing, it's that Americans naturally have terrible music taste lol. American metal fans only listen to "hard heavy manly real metal!1!1!" Like the trash that is slayer and Pantera. If you introduce something melodic and progressive to them they'd say "it's clean vocals!1!1! That's gAy!1!1!1! Where's the 1010101010 riffs????" They don't care if a song actually sounds good or if the musicians are talented or not, they only care about what image the music they listen to would paint of them. They literally think their music taste=their personality and life purpose. And they try too hard to be "special" and "not like the other people who listen to pop trash!1!1!1!". That's why they'll never discover or like nightwish, they're too small minded for that. Ofcourse there are exceptions and people who are normal but the majority are like this. Thanks for coming to my rant.

Nightwish - High Hopes... Pink Floyd cover...

Great reaction... I think you would like Dead boy's poem from buenos aires... That's a song with a lot of singing issues... From really low to really high notes of Floor.

This is a real sleeper Nightwish song. I've only seen a couple people react to it. The lyrics are a brilliant indictment on religion. And the way Marko and Floor blend in the chorus is fantastic as always.

Thank you. I'm going to check out that video series you mentioned. Great reaction! Great song!

Wonderful work. Always enjoy your vids and appreciate the hard work you do for our enjoyment. Thank you. 👍👏

Great reaction. Love your knowledge care and detail you give ! More Nightwish!

This is the earliest I've ever been to one of your videos! Writing this as I listen to your intro and looking forward to how this reaction goes :)

Same here Mike. I grew up with the same bands as you. I had no idea this music existed until I discovered Nightwish back in February. I'm completely blown away by this band. You should check out their tour dates. They plan to be in the states next year.

Mike, I just simply love the pure joy that radiates from you as you appreciate the music. You make listening to these songs again even more enjoyable. Thank you.

Just the Beginning without any Lyrics.. Love that old Song. I did't know and i still don't know every (older) Song. Nightwish Army Member since many Years here with some breaks but always loved them. we - love - them - all. They are here since 25 years plus. Symphonic Heavy Metal. Tuomas Holopainen /Mozart 2.0 .. he is the Songwriter of Nightwish - the Keybord Player.

Oh, the pure joy in your face! So lovely.

Subbed and liked. Keep the warstories from back-in-the-day musicianship coming. That’s your angle, my friend. Excellent perspective.

Thanks so much for the kind feedback! And for liking subscribing!!

Enjoyed the reaction and commenting to hopefully help the algorithm. I just saw this video suggested even though you posted it hours ago

Hi Mike....Helene here...You are saying exactly what my feelings have been for the past year. I am about a decade older than you....73.....and I was like 15 when the Beatles hit. I loved Zeppelin, Floyd, The Eagles, Van Halen......and then in the 90’s I got into that “boomers” mindset that says “no good rock since.......” and “all current music is crap”. So I listened to classic rock on satellite radio and played my old CD’s and albums. Then I discovered alternative rock in the nineties. I felt pretty smug. But THEN, about a year ago, I discovered youtube reaction channels, and discovered HOLY COW....Tool! Nightwish! Symphonic Metal! Grunge! Aurora! And it was GOOD. And I discovered Robert Plant’s solo career, with all the “world music” influences he incorporates... and “tribal” music like Helvegen.....Good Lord...there is SO MUCH good music out there....I wish I were young again just so I had more time to discover even more!

They are just so good. They all are. Songwriting is just so good. Show is just so entertaining. Excellent & interesting commenting too, thanks for doing this!

Floors "Once upon Time..." Gives me chills everytime.

If you want to see them in concert in the U.S. they have rescheduled their tour and will be in L.A. and New York in Oct. 2021. I just bought my tickets for one of the LA shows (in the pit by the stage). I suggest you get on their website and get your tickets now as they won't last long. Great reaction!

Great one Mike.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Can never go wrong with a bit of Nightwish

Thank you for the reaction :-) Superb concert, features songs from the 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful (2015)' album, Nightwish's first studio album with Floor. New songs written specifically with Floor in mind. 'Weak Fantasy' is the 2nd track on the 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful' studio album.

Sat and had beers very early 70s with Ronnie Dio after they played a local club in my hometown, bartender was my buddy, and after closing Dio and the band stuck around and had a few. Even took an outside break with them as well. :;-) . He was from a town just 30 miles north and when Ronnie Dio and the Elves, (later Elf) came to town, the places were always packed, saw them many, many times. Greatest male voice in Rock History in that tiny little Frame. Hey - I'm an old guy! :-)

Thank you for your hard work and dedication 😃😊😌😁😀😎

Nice , Nightwish just released a new video yesterday (Yours is an Empty Hope) Live in Mexico City 2015. Floor growls a lot in this song & hits some really high notes

I appreciate your videos, and how many free courses you offer. I hope to complete them myself at some point (I have toddlers 😅 who knows when). Thank you for reacting to our favorite band as well! Entertains my kids and I can get some musical knowledge in the process.

I had the same experience as you did. I grew up in CA during the Age of Rock n Roll and thought I knew what it was all about. While not a total fan of Nightwish, I AM now a fan of the genre, Symphonic Metal. If you asked me a year and half ago that I would be into any kind of metal, I'd have looked at you as though you had two heads - I'm still listening to the classics from when I grew up in the 70's. The band that broke it open for me was Within Temptation. Do listen to their stuff - I'd start with Hydra and The Unforgiving. Sharon den Adel's voice is amazing and Robert Westerholt and Sharon are unofficially, arguably the King and Queen of Symphonic Metal. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!!

You should check out "Yours is am Empty Hope." A completely different vocal experience from Floor.

The song is so good that you didn't pause a single time! Another one that you could check is Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembley or the new video they just uploaded in Mexico. That one has some interesting vocals from Floor you haven't heard yet

Great reaction, Mike. Marko is so awesome that he's playing TWO instruments and singing during this song. Roll on Oct 5 2021. You can't come soon enough.

Great reaction as always Mike 🤘🤘

I absolutely love this specific live perf. Pure energy from Tuomas Kai and Floor, message I can get behind... 🎶🎶🎶🤟

I love how pure your reactions to the songs are. I whould recommend Nightwish - Yours is an empty hope. It has some nice eastereggs and still blows my mind everytime I listen to it.

A good one, thanks ^^

Mike, High Hopes! I’m a Pink Floyd fan for over 40 years. But.......High Hopes Nightwish..........incredible!

I am going to see NW at The Wiltern in LA on Oct 2nd 2021. You should join us!! I will be in the Loge section Row EE seats 1 & 3

Yes, one of my all time favorite songs and performances of Nightwish 🤘

Nightwish is attempting to do few shows in the US next year. I got tickets for New York show. I hope it goes through...

Thank you for the 2020 reactions

Great reaction - love your style and expertise.

Good to see you back with another nightwish song that was great. I concur with others here please react to high hopes, Marco kills it Thankyou.

Great reaction, as always. You should check out, Nightwish - I Want My Tears Back (live in Buenos Aires), it is in a little different direction, folk music. Also check out Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen, I think his vocals will surprise you.

Ive been saying it for years. theres so many insanely talented musicians in metal. glad to see people finding out about that. awesome reaction :)

Love your content! Personally this is one of my favourites from Nightwish! Would love to see you react to Yours is an Empty Hope from Wembley 2015, a real showcase of Floors ability! Marco's latest solo album is full of amazing tracks from the man himself, well worth a react to. And if you want a showcase of some insanely talented metal musicians take a look at Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars live in Sonic Pump Studios (including NW drummer Kai).

Mike you are the best! More nightwish plz. Peace from Austria

That's the beauty of things like the internet and KZread. You decide what you watch and listen to, instead of being dependent of radio stations and record companies.

Like always u Smash It like NW. Same like u i never listen to NW until this year. I m grunge man and floor and the band blow my mind, they are amazing storytellers and hell of musicians greetings for u from Argentina.

Love this song! And always love your reaction, and insight! Even though I’m not a singer, I do try my best to sing along to the best of my abilities haha and hearing you explain things always intrigues me. Thanks man! I have to ask if you could please react to the latest released Unleash The Archers video “Legacy”. It is one of their most unique songs, with some awesome vocal harmony layers by Brittney. I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🤘🇨🇦

Thanks for doing it Mike...My favorite Nightwish song...although there are many!

Nuclear blast, their label, are really good with reactors. They know it's a way to spread the music to people who otherwise might not hear it. The only Nightwish song there might be a problem with is "Greatest show on earth" But that's not their fault. There's a rapper who sampled parts of the song, so it's his label that puts a copyright disclaimer on it.

Thick as a Brick still awesome and Weather Report with Jaco kills all! These guys are those guys, today. Love your honesty, keep up man. R'n'R!

Love your genuine reactions of Nightwish, Mike! It's been a while and you got so many to still go through to complete your journey of one of the best Vocal and instrumental bands out there. For some more harmony with Floor and Marco, I would suggest reacting to: Ever Dream, Live Wacken 2013 kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4ydltBxlK3Jdps.html , then Last Ride of the Day, Live Wacken 2013 kzread.info/dash/bejne/g659r9pwdNTHj7A.html , then I want my Tears Back, Live Buenos Aires 2019 kzread.info/dash/bejne/hnaDxsmxmsWWm7A.html , and finally Yours is an Empty Hope, Live Wembley Arena 2015 kzread.info/dash/bejne/qK2A1bdwgZaZY84.html . That should round out a diverse performance. Keep up the great reactions!

Check out Marco's singing in "While Your Lips Are Still Red." It doesn't pop up in KZread's suggestions much. Hauntingly beautiful IMO.

I think you should consider a reaction video to some of the Insomnium stuff, there's no professional musician reaction videos to their songs on KZread (or at least I couldn't find any, all of them are just random people without knowledge), they have some truly amazing songs like 'While We Sleep', 'Promethean Song', 'Ephemeral', 'And Bells They Toll' or 'Mute Is My Sorrow', that's a really damn good melodic death metal from Finland!

Awesome reaction Mike! Gotta give a listen to "7 days to the wolves" live at Wembley 2015 . You must ! Peace and love from Romania ! :)

Next react to Nightwish High Hopes!!! Marko kills it!!! :D

Thanks so much, your reactions and analysis are the best. I recommend to you to react to the other band where Kai Hahto plays, Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars (live al sonic pump studios), I think you will love it too. And I would love to watch to you to react ti Slaughter to Prevail - Demolisher. I think you would love the lows and the range of Alex Terrible, super nice guy and incredible singer. Thank you sir, cheers from Spain!

Wishing we will see where this kinda music is going to evolve in our lifetime.... 😉 Yet another cool reaction män 😎👍 Cheers from Finland 🇫🇮 🥶 💯 💙

Marko is as solid as a rock. He never misses a beat.

great talking to music and bands and nightwish. this song have something magical.something king arthur and merlin stories,or that forbidden apple who makes sleeping forever :) thanx mike and have great day and soon weekend.

I think you would really enjoy Leprous "Slave' (Live at Rockefeller Center). They're a Norwegian ProgMetal band and the singer (Einar Solberg) has a great voice capable of falsetto flips, growls and everything in between.

I had never seen this song before today! I was as open mouthed as Mike!

Great reaction as always! Sorry about the block you received, that's a bummer.

Hi I think this was Kai's intro to the fans. I love the little things she did on some words and I love the expressions with her eyes. She is a very beautiful and very down to earth. Its bad that in the States and Canada they are somewhat known. They've been around since 1995 or 6 . FYI Ann and Nancy Wilson (HEART) both have singles out rhe last couple of days and both have solo albums coming to.

Great job. Nightwish is something else....:)

Please listen to Renaissance. The singer Anne Haslam has a 5 octave range. They are a rock/classical/jazz group from the 70's. The best recordings are from the Live at Carnegie Hall with the New York Philharmonic. I think you will really enjoy it.

I know what you mean, I didn't even know about Nightwish until a reaction video. Then I saw clips of Floor in the Dutch tv show Baste zangers. . I never knew of symphonic metal, then combine it with a female lead singer that could sing opera .

His facial expressions are EVERYTHING

Marco sounds amazing in this track!

I think you would really enjoy both Dead Boys Poem and Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean live in Buenos Aires. Both songs are amazing and feature Floor and Marko

Hey Mike! Its Mike here haha! You said you were impressed by Floor and all. Well, you reacted to The Greatest Show on Earth from this show that was the closing song.. even MORE impressed now? :D

👋👋👋👋 Great composion... Great reaction 👋👋👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘....and coments.. Like

Great reaction! You should try Ayreon - Everybody Dies (Live). I think you will be impressed! And prepare yourself for the surprise in the end!

I really enjoy Your reactions, they are so real and at in positive attitude. Thank You. May I ask that You would react to "Devil and The Deep Dark Oceans" from Live Buenos Aires. It have both Floor and Marco crushing it in a fast, dramatic song.

Thank you for sharing your reactions, I get very happy when I see you on my youtube feed! :D Please would you do a reaction to isäni ääni by Marco Hietala some day or How's the heart (acoustic) with Floor Jansen and Troy?

You will love dead boy's poem live in Buenos aires and the whole new album.

If you want to hear Marco's voice a whole song .... try this one. Amazing vocals. And Floor back it up Nightwish - The Islander (Tampere)

Talented people for sure.

Gotta love the double hair whips

Marko "Another day in the office.. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing well!".. Recommend "High Hopes" by Nightwish - the Pink Floyd Tribute - from "End of An Era", live.

*YESSSSS*
