Marco and Floor were born to singer together....i miss them together .

[@RikaShae]

It’s crazy how much their vocals compliment each other, not looking forward to reactions when he’s gone

[@silverblack5475]

@@RikaShae Floor has been doing double duty for the most part

[@lillianekockritz2796]

@@silverblack5475 Yes, in some recent songs she now is singing "for two singers" (has taken over also Marko's parts) or Troy jumped in and now sings parts that Marko sang before. I am missing Marko very much, too, but Nightwish is still great and has survived several member changes since their start in 1996. And I am sure will survive at least as long as powerhouse Floor will be with them.

[@WNYretiree]

There is something about Marko's voice. You can always tell it's him, yet, it is always different. He just has so many different colors that I don't know if we will ever get to the end. Marko has a brand new song out, by the way. It features the first singer from Nightwish -- Tarja -- and it is very, very good. It's called "Left on Mars" and you might want to give it a listen.

[@RikaShae]

I will!

[@nanns77]

This band is special. They all are great.

[@RikaShae]

I’ve loved the journey so far!

[@glenngunnis6642]

Marko gets the Floor Jansen is my backup singer t-shirt!🤘🎸

[@RikaShae]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@chriso6719]

Marko wrote the music, he brought it with him from his first band ,Tarot, it didn't fit with them. Tuomas heard him playing it one day, and decided it would make a great song, so he wrote lyrics about a lonely lighthouse keeper. From the 2007 Dark Passion Play album. Anette era. Glad the weasels came back. LOL. Yep, a whistle, Irish Low Whistle here. Marko and Floor always sounded great singing together.

[@RikaShae]

Thanks for the cool info!

[@pdutchie4924]

Always chills when the others come in Their harmonies are gold❣️

[@RikaShae]

For real!

[@Thorgrim247]

We all miss Marko, but the world keeps turning and Nightwish is still awesome. All the best to Marko.

[@RikaShae]

Yeah I think I’m really being too loyal to a point, in hip hop people don’t leave groups and get replaced, so it’s a new dynamic for me!

[@billattercliffe8655]

I've watched this performance a number of times and I've only just noticed that Marko is alternating between strumming with his thumb and a pick. His guitar playing matches his changes in vocal technique when he moves between chorus and verse. Just one more of those little intricacies that are scattered throughout Nightwish music.

[@RikaShae]

Oh I didn’t notice that!

[@stephanie.r382]

You looked quite emotional listening to that ,So nice to see! Tears are always in my eyes when I hear this song !

[@RikaShae]

It’s just amazing to me their combination of sounds is incredible

[@jasonmarshall7572]

I've been into an array of music as a kid in the 80's. Never thought i'd be into Symphonic metal but Nightwish has done that to me

[@RikaShae]

It’s really crazy to me lol

[@ralfmeyer9086]

Marko left a few years ago.Now have Jukka Koskinen. And he is amazing

[@RikaShae]

That’s good to know there was a great one to fill his shoes, but it’s gonna be hard for me when I get there

[@ralfmeyer9086]

@@RikaShae Hey, look to Hellfest or Deichbrand 2022, and you see how good he is. He comes from Wintersun.Kai also.

[@David_randomnumber]

​@@ralfmeyer9086Although I love Marco I totally understand that he made his decision final. It wouldn't be fair to Jukka to keep him hovering always to fear Marco could join again (and boot him out).

[@ralfmeyer9086]

@@David_randomnumber I do my best, to support Jukka I like him. He is so good.

Great reaction. Great smile. Nightwish makes people happy. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.

[@RikaShae]

Rock on!

[@andykereztury1450]

Check out the official video for this song too!

[@RikaShae]

Will do, I heard it was really good

[@RikaShae]

I’m not sure I’ve seen any official videos yet, I think I get recommended ones that won’t get copyright strikes for reactions

[@pen7759]

Hi ! When you got Floor as a back up singer, then you know that the one leading Must be incomparable too ! I think Marco is one of the best singer in metal music. Marco and Floor got so many layers in their singing. This was a good reacting, we really could see it too. Greets from Finland. Take care.

[@RikaShae]

You are right!

[@KaiHellmann]

Finland Tampere yeah! Marco’s big brother Zachary Hietala is guitar virtuose. Marco’s and Zachary’s own pump band TAROT is good. Since 1986👍🏻

[@RikaShae]

Really?! I’ll check it out

[@kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038]

Just you wait - Troy does it all - pipes, whistles, flutes, e-bow, guitar, vocals.... You have still only scratched the surface..😁

[@RikaShae]

Ha! I can’t wait to see more, it’s like a new magic trick every reaction I swear. There’s not been one song where I was like, ok I’ve seen this, I’ve heard this, etc

[@Aenea-de9vy]

Oh, one of my favorite songs! Marko! ❤ Thanks for doing this!

[@RikaShae]

Loved it! I’m gonna check out his new single as well

[@AntaryDraconis]

nice, thank you

[@RikaShae]

Thank you too

[@ievazagante5527]

I suggest you to watch the official music video. It was made during the period of the "Dark Passion Play" - and I have heard that Tuomas, when described the album, mentioned other song as the least dark.

[@RikaShae]

I will check it out!

[@AGDinCA]

You say you like flutes in metal? Oh, I have a treat for you! Bloodywood is an Indian folk metal band (think Linkin Park + Rage Against the Machine) that incorporates really beautiful traditional instruments. I'm linking one of their songs below. It's a total banger with an awesome flute solo! Aaj - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZjZeWmqjZl4oJI You can thank me later. LOL 🤘😂

[@RikaShae]

Added it to my watch later list, not sure if I will react to it or not, but I’m definitely curious

[@AGDinCA]

@@RikaShae Believe me, you'll want to react to it and you'll be bummed if you don't. 👍 These guys aren't huge yet, but they have a decent, and growing, following. And, for good reason! 🤘

[@Mischnikvideos]

Shanty are the songs that sailors sang on sailing ships to coordinate work or when loading and unloading. That's why it's traditionally a men's choir without instruments. Today the term has been expanded and instruments have been added. The shanty have been adapted to modern tastes because there are only a few large sailing ships left. Various navies and commercial organizations still have training ships for officer candidates. In the USA it is the Coast Guard's Eagle. Marko's voice generally goes well with female voices EXIT EDEN - Run! feat. Marko Hietala (Official Video) | Napalm Records MARKO HIETALA - Left On Mars (feat. Tarja Turunen) (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO).

[@RikaShae]

So I was on the right track thank you for the info!

[@jaskau2462]

🤩👍💥💯🎼 The non-translated Finnish part before the first chorus ; " So, if I play that chorus you'll probably sing along? (Yeeeaahhhh) Will Ya?? (Yeeaahh) Well then it´ll be ´pulled off´ " Their voices together has a deep impact value ´coz of their ability to sing effortlessly in different registers and first of all match their vibratos at in any place, Like There´s No Tomorrow! And all of this ´Pulled Off´ in Live. 🤘😎💙🎶 ...Yup...Keeping the content in some sort of ´quality´ - range, rather than squeezing it with huge amount of quantity and not keeping it so "intimate"(if you will) and non - real for your self...and for the others.. 😉👌

[@RikaShae]

Thanks for the advice!

[@tracyfarnath2270]

I'm with you about Marko being gone, he's got such a fantastic distinctive voice and with Floor it's just fantastic. Great reaction, I love system as well. See you for the next one. 🇬🇧

Sea shanty is correct! When I started my Nightwish journey many many years ago I didn’t realize that Marco would become one of my favourite male singers.

[@RikaShae]

He’s one of mine for sure

[@KaiHellmann]

Marco plays electric guitar like a acoustic guitar. MRco’s big brother Zachary Hietala is guitar virruose. Marco’s and Zachary have own pump/band Tarot. Wings Of Darkness is one song…

[@zbygniewprlwytzkofsky6614]

I think that in 50 years or so this will be considered classical music....
