Why do you love Nightwish?

For me, it's mostly Nemo, Amaranth, and Over the Hills... From days of old.
But, for the non-believers, I give you Wacken 2013. Listen to that crowd on Floor's count to 3... Then scroll back 10min, and listen for 15. If you didn't believe before, now you will... :D

Nightwish are awesome live. I saw them at Bloodstock a week ago.

@Basswizardofmiddleearth Oh man I wanted to go so badly but .. organising 3 trips abroad and an entire family meetup got the better of me (plus work means getting up at 5am next day and I have no leave!). How was the crowd? Looking at a couple of youtube clips they look a little lame but.. obviously you can't tell unless you're there....

The crowd was was singing along with joy! Floor Jansen sounds better live than on CD though, I like Annette Olson from dark passion play and Imaginareum era.@DreamCoCreators

Awesome, great news I want them to look forward to Wembley in December! Floor is definitely a live performer for sure. I wondered if Imaginerium was Anette's era. She had a great voice, and for sure some of those songs were amazing. But IMHO she was meant for a new band and a new feel. Some songs she didn't master so well BUT caveat is I didn't hear many different times she sang them. So not exactly a good place to comment from, but hey we all have what we have right?
