Another great song from Marko - "The Islander" @ Tampere 2015 and ofc. tribute to Pink Floyd - "High Hopes" @ Hartwall Arena 2005. More bands......plenty of them - Epica, Within Temptation, Kamelot just few.... and i recommend Arjen Anthony Lucassen aka. Ayreon "The Day That the World Breaks Down"

Hi Veronna, this is why Marko has a special place in our hearts. A pet Martian approves. Wembley Arena, closer to my home than Tampere. Finnish flags of support in the audience. Oooh, Troy using his E-Bow. The backing singer about to start... drifting in gently. Sitting down, on the steps, she might still be taller than Emppu? "Hey that's my bike!"

[@tarmotyyri6733]

Thanks for sharing your professional take on this beautiful ballad. P.S. Marko had a surgery in late 90s that damaged his vocal chords. This is what he tells about it: "The doctor found a polyp on his left vocal cord and recommended surgery. I agreed - and regretted his decision. The doctor said that he had to forcefully remove the polyp, but that it shouldn’t become a problem. My voice was supposed to return to normal in a couple of weeks. That didn’t happen. At first, the situation was so bad that I couldn’t sing at all. I lost the channel and ability through which I had largely built my personality and my entire life. The situation could be compared to a sprinter who has to sit in a wheelchair with his legs tied up. It made me think, what should I do with this life". Fortunately, the story had a happy ending & Marko's voice has been in good shape for a long time. However, it has required a lot of work over the years. Marko also points out that her singing voice never returned to the level it was before the surgery: " That surgery completely killed my pure upper falsetto. Much later, it was also discovered that my left vocal cord had permanent nerve damage, which had been caused by that surgery. In other words, the left and right vocal cords are not in sync with each other properly. Well, to be honest: I've managed with those".

[@riittap9121]

Tarot: Wings of Darkness from 1986 is a must see video for many reasons, hearing his voice before the surgery is just one of them.

[@damianvc31]

Marko is not with NW anymore but he is very active currently touring with Tarja and also about to release a new solo album He also collaborates with several artists last one I've seen was with Patty Gurdy Speaking of which it could be a good suggestion for a reaction the song Concrete Cages from the band Scardust, they are also kind of symphonic/prog metal band with a great female vocalist (Noa Gruman) and that song also features Patty Gurdy who sings and plays the Hurdy Gurdy folk instrument

This beautiful little song is originally made for a Finnish rural drama movie "Lieksa!" (Pölönen, 2007). And this sold out Wembley arena 2015 performance is an excellent one. I've met Marko in person. He's a very fine individual. Merry Christmas from the snowy northern Finland! ☃️❄️🤘

I think Xandria deserves some recognition I think they exist in a weird space where they're big enough and have been around long enough to be considered one of the big names in the space but aren't quite included in the same conversations as a Nightwish, Within Temptation and Epica Their first singer Lisa has a very soft and beautiful voice but their 2nd and 3rd singers, Manuela and Dianne, sing with a little more utilization of their classical backgrounds

[@Jasper_Tree]

Fantastic reaction, I really appreciated your analysis. It would be worth seeing some of Marko’s newer songs that he has released recently - he has a very versatile voice. And he did a song with Tarja called “Left On Mars” a year or so ago that has some interesting vocals from the both of them - cool to see how they sing together now and adapt to each others vocal styles. If you’re looking for something a bit different, maybe check out Tommy Johansson. He has an interesting voice - usually does more power metal but he has some symphonic metal songs.

[@PaulSmith-pt3zu]

Marco is to me the glue for the band. Nightwish is super group comprised of the best musicians out there and all are important pieces to make his band as tight and phenomenal while performing live. Let alone studio recording. Marco thru his tenure was capable of singing with all 3 front women and sound absolutely perfect to performing with each of them. Yet still do his thing. This song is just one side of him that he nails his vocals. And yet can still play bass like no other can. Please react to his other solo song “The Islander” live in Tempere. He’ll show another version of his voice that you haven’t heard. And like Floor, Marco has his ability to switch up his singing technique throughout all Nightwishes catalog. He truly is a special artist in his own right. It’s very sad he stepped away from Nightwish to pursue his solo career a few years back. See ya on the next reaction

Other symphonic metal bands? Delain comes to mind, founded by the brother of Within Temptation's lead guitarist. Xandria. Beyond the Black is technically symphonic, though I'd call it more pop-oriented. Elyose is a symphonic/industrial mix from France.

[@rnowak85]

Thank you for naother fantastic reaction to one of my favorite songs Marko sings lead on. The music is hauntingly beautiful and Marko's vocals are so stunningly beautiful and vulnerable. A beautiful tribute to innocent young love. Reminds me of my teenage years. Listening to CHOM-FM out of Montreal (I grew up in Burlington, VT in the 70's and 80's and CHOM was the only decent radio station we could listen to) getting ready to go ut on a Saturday night. Hoping to meet that one girl who would get me and I could connect with and fall in love. Many recommendations for more Marko but I will recommend my favorite Marko song, Endlessness, from the Human Nature album. Last song on Disc 1 and a fitting last song recorded by Marko with Nightwish. A beautiful, doomy song about living a full life and at the end, accepting that inevitable end and gently going on into the next adventure that awaits us in death. For another group to checkout I would highly recommend the Dutch Symphonic/Gothic metal band Blackbriar and theirlead singer Zora Cock. She has one of the most beautiful and unique voices I have ever heard. Arms of the Ocean is one of my favorites but start with The Seance music video. Zora has some very unique vocal techniques that gives you some truly eerie vibes. The acoustic version really allows you to dive into her voice. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHu1eoxpZ9Obgqssi=RBJNP2fxRAAYYqOu. The full music video performance will give you the full effect of the bands sound and is equally amazing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4GZqaFuoL-Hm8ksi=lWAo7SScRbV1ga8d.

6:12 Your second version was perfect! His given name is Marko which is a Finnish name and it should have clear rolling R which is pretty short. You could have a bit stronger hum at the start of M before you open your lips to start the word Marko. The M at the start of the word should already have clear sound while your lips are still pressed together.

I love this song, it's beautiful and when sung properly, it's a very romantic song! I sang in a traveling show back in the 1980's. It was quite tiring going to different states, rehearsing, to put on another show the next evening! I have a very deep voice, along with one other high school bass singer. It was tiring by the end of our concerts! Mostly, It felt great just to sleep in my own bed!

[@konstantinosG84]

Nice vocal analysis as always! Regarding your question about where to go next for some symphonic metal, I recommend to stay still!😅 After Nightwish and Epica you won’t find anything worth your time much. There are some great older bands like Therion and Haggard, but they haven’t got mainstream videos and stuff to check out. They are on a more obscure niche of the genre, although both phenomenal bands and pioneers.

It used to be Marko (with rolling R), but one day Marko decided to take the stage name Marco (without rolling R). Later he called that a mistake, but he never changed it back while he was with Nightwish. Post-Nightwish I see the Marko spelling again. I guess that either pronunciation will do, rolling R would be best.

[@neils123]

Smaller band that I'd highly recommend is Seven Spires. Not purely symphonic, more like... symphonic black power metal. But their music is quite sophisticated and their singer, Adrienne Cowan, is excellent, handling both clean and harsh vocals. Maybe check out "Almosttown" from their latest album (focusing on cleans), or for something more focused on harsh vocals, "Architect of Creation".

[@ArchitectB]

I think you might like to hear Tony Kakko’s voice from Sonata Arctica. He has very good voice. Also can sing with many styles. Their songs are often stories, and he is a good story teller. You might start with this: ”White pearl black ocean” kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYjRmWmEja9nodUsi=aQ6zCO0SZ2iu3Wz0

Though if you want to _see_ him sing, you'll have to go with the original Finnish version, "Isäni ääni", since he didn't re-record the music video for the English translation, just blurred himself to prevent any confusion about his lip movements not matching the singing 😄

Her voice is so freaking powerful combo Tarja and Bruce Dickenson is best description like how does her voice do that. Kamelot Liar Liar is a classic 2000s song they toured and friends with Epica Simone has been on multiple tracks Roy Kahn is a legend in the scene, grew up church choir years and years still does it to this day even in retirement his voice sounds amazing.

On top of Arch Enemy, voice acting mostly doing her singing screaming for video games, commission artist, and costume design.
