Gorgeous, huh? Witnessing this performance live is honestly one of the highlights of my life, the atmosphere in that hall was simply unbelievable (enhanced by the whole 'Tarja's last show' thing). I've never been able to go back to the original after hearing this, to be quite honest. Also, I'm sure it's been recommended before, but if you want to hear more of Marco's amazing dynamic singing, do check out 'Tides' by Tarot.

I love re-listening to Nightswish's High Hopes and so whenever there is a new reaction that pops up I jump on it. But if the reactor's never heard of it I don't even watch it - what's the point? So glad to see you respect and love the original. I grew up on Pink Floyd and this cover, to me, is magical. Love the authenticity. I love how you didn't even need to look at the video. Just consumed by the music. Subscribed.

So glad you liked that, Floyd fans not always appreciate it, but when i realized that it’s a cover it made me listen more Pink Floyd than before. What i like about this beside Marcos vocals is that even Emppu put more effort to this than most Nightwish songs (what is kind of sad in a way)
@Mel_ForReal5 жыл бұрын
Well, I understand why he would, there is a reason why there aren't too many Pink Floyd cover's out there. They not only had a very distinctive sound (vocals and vibe) Pink Floyd is known to have some of the most iconic guitar solos in rock n roll history. They both had to step up their game for this one, and they did it beautifully.

He has an amazing and powerful voice. If you'd like to see him do something different aside from Nightwish, he and three other guys (all whom have successful groups of their own) formed a cover band called Northern Kings. There are two songs they do that are amazing. One is Tina Turner's "We Don't Need Another Hero" and Seal's "Kiss From a Rose" I would love to see you react to those two. You will not be dissappointed because these four guys are extremely talented.

Thank you, I had to stop taping today because one came on. I guess I just have to admit to myself that the days of putting out 4-5 videos every day is just unreasonable now. When I first came home from Afghanistan broken it took a look time for me to accept my physical limitations. Now I have to accept my physical and mental ones. Very hard for a girl who's been doing it all on her own since she was 15. It's crushing my spirit a bit...ok no more of that, I'm tearing up. Have a wonderful evening sis. Much love, always.

Hey good morning from Lubbock Texas. This is one of my favorite covers. And you are right to cover a song you got to make it your own but still keep it within the parameters of the song self. I am the kind of conflicted about not having David Gilmour they're playing the slide guitar during the guitar solo. But with that being said how the solo was done in this was just amazing also just amazing. Marco has amazing range. And he is a force to be reckoned with even though he is The Supporting Cast to the lead singer. This was also during this concert the last performance for terje as she was in the back watching this performance. I have another cover song that you might really want to take a look at it and it is just as powerful. That would be Johnny Cash doing the song Hurt. The song was originally done by Nine Inch Nails. What makes this song also very special this was the very last video Johnny Cash did as a matter of fact I believe he died for 5 or 6 days later. You never saw the results of this video. And you can really feel the depth of his emotion of this video. And there is so many things to talk about in this video. But with that being said I really enjoyed your reaction to this Pink Floyd cover. Amazing amazing amazing amazing. Well I enjoy your show very much so Keep On Keepin On
