[@bubbamilburn6653]

Prepare to be blown away. Floor and Marko together is pure magic. This song rocks too.

[@northof4912]

This is a primer for Song of Myself, Seven Days to the Wolves….. and Poet.

[@oldschoolgamer-w4u]

@@northof4912 She is nowhere near ready for the Poet

[@mattihelin5101]

Marco and Tarja were golden also.

[@joshaker2753]

Marko leads the song While Your Lips Are Still Red which is one of my favs and somewhat under rated in their catalog!

[@northof4912]

@GTA ONLINE - Old Giga Reading comprehension is important - the OP was about Floor and Marco harmonizing. I'm responding about songs where the harmony is even deeper than in Ever Dream. In no way was this a "next song" suggestion. Having said that, she's ready for whatever song she wants, when she wants. The NWA is a bit full of itself.....

[@FromG2eminor]

You: More Marko, please! NW Army: As you wish! 1. Ghost River same concert 2. Romanticide same concert 3. Phantom of the Opera with Tarja 4. High Hope: Pink Floyd Tribute 5. The Islander I could go on and on...he is my favorite male vocalist ever!

[@__mader__]

Phantom of the Opera The voice of my father

[@ladydalida6917]

And not forget : Ave Maria

[@randomman4938]

Yes, I highly recommend the first two as well.

[@alancarter41]

I concur

[@hextatik_sound]

You forgot "Devil And the Deep Dark Ocean".

[@randomman4938]

Yep, that's our beloved Marko! The guy has a great voice, and when he and Floor harmonize it is absolutely divine! Hopefully someday we will get a chance to see them perform together again. We all miss him, but his health and happiness come first.

[@diddivonpaule5843]

Floor and Marco sing Ave Maria at one of their last performances together, that's phenomenal

[@garricksmalley1733]

I concur

[@xjapan3]

This was a wonderful song. They were always quite close. Mr. Hietala gave Floor advice for shampoo! Fun fact! Lol

[@MiniLemmy]

FYI, Marko also used to sing the Phantom’s lines in Nightwish’s version of ‘Phantom Of The Opera’ where he actually competed with then vocalist Tarja Turunan (a much more operatic style singer) in hitting the high notes! It’s quite a thing to hear….. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn2VZqWYo9uAatE

[@billballard2019]

Yes, this version of Pahntom is a must see!! And for solo Marko, check out The Islander, and High Hopes...and for Marko and Floor, Romanticide is not to be missed...

[@05smaugthegolden]

The Phantom never was so metal as with Marko!

[@jovetj]

@@billballard2019 It's the best version of that song I've ever heard. Lloyd Weber should have dug up Marko back in the 80s!

[@toweri_li]

@@jovetj Andrew Lloyd Webber has stated that this (linked above by 'MiniLemmy') is the best rendition of Phantom of the Opera he ever heard.

[@ADHDsquirrels]

And worth a listen to, on a regular basis. I throw it on especially when I want metal around non metalheads

[@wolverine669]

In case this is your first time you hear Marko, he formed a band called Tarot in 1982 w/ his brother. Well, actually it was Purgatory at first, but they changed the name in 1984. Marko also released his first solo album a few years back, called Pyre Of The Black Heart. It's been released both in English and Finnish. Also Northern Kings is one of the so called super groups he's been with plus featured in many other projects

[@Rico.at.50]

He also won Finland's version of the masked singer (lol)

[@ilkkak3065]

By The way Tarot will be on stage in summer...

[@seppokarjalainen2409]

​And yes, those concerts are sold out!

[@lonelywind3511]

He is on the new Delain album in the song Invictus.

[@EiraAimo]

To put that into perspective, Floors was born in 1981...

[@m0j0rising]

The look when Marko opens his pipes to sing.... 😍 Every. Single. Time. 😂

[@timhmetal3499]

Tuomas is a poet and musical genius. His ability to write epic lyrics and compose music are legendary.

[@jovetj]

He really is a genius. He doesn't do all the beautiful orchestration, but he sure has a knack for mind-blowing songwriting. _The Poet and the Pendulum_ is one of the few works of art that consistently makes me cry. It's one of the heaviest (emotionally) songs I can think of.

[@akoskeli]

Marko is basically the godfather of finnish heavy metal, his first band Tarot just blew everyone away in the 80's. And he was the perfect fit for Nightwish at this point.

[@sket179]

This is a band where individuals are all crazy talented but they do not flaunt their skills with the expense of the song/story. They'll do what the song needs and do solo astray. No ego.

[@jovetj]

Ideally, but Tajra did not subscribe to that check of ego.

[@scottclark3761]

That eye rolling back, goosebumpy, speechless feeling....we call that a Floorgasm. And Marko.....yeah. He's kinda metal royalty on the European scene. He is metal.....it oozes and drips from him. There's plenty of them together...Romaticide, Ghost River, I Want My Tears Back...and he has some solo stuff. If you're a Pink Floyd fan, they did a tribute to High Hopes that is mesmerizing. Kiss While Your Lips Are Still Red, and The Islander are great solo pieces from him in Nightwish. Keep going, Ray. You've only scratched the surface.

[@davidellinsworth3299]

That look of "they told me so" never gets old 😂

[@philipturner9087]

When they sing together it’s just sensational. It’s such a pity he left.

[@Debbie338]

Marko is a vocal beast. So many songs with him…Seven Days to the Wolves, The Islander, While Your Lips are Still Red, Wish I Had an Angel, I Want My Tears Back, Phantom of the Opera (with Tarja); and for pure Marko magic, High Hopes. I love that you love him! ❤

[@lkzMini]

More of Marko? Yes pls. "The islander (Live)", "High hopes (Live aswell, Pink Floyd cover)" and my personal favourite... Delain + Marko playing "The gathering" (Live aswell). And u gonna know more bands! :D Delain is amazing!

[@tommynousiainen6370]

"More of Marko?" Why not Tarot? It's Marko's original band. Wings of darkness, Tides, Howl! etc...

[@cjmacleod3976]

You will hear a lot more of Marco singing as you continue your Nightwish journey.

[@markclements7767]

Another great reaction, thank you 😊 I look forward to seeing the next one 😁

[@rayactions]

Thank you so much! :D

[@TuuliMakinen]

Somewhere it was said that Marko has the Voice Of All Gods. Couldn't have put it better, he is pure gold!

[@Atreides02]

Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red This is another love at first hear by Marko! Incredible voice and harmony!

[@randymarple9830]

Thanks for this reaction Rachel! Yeah, they are a special group of musicians. Marko... End of an Era concert, 2005 singing High Hopes, a tribute to Pink Floyd. Marko... Wembley 2015 concert, Kiss While Your Lips Are Still Red. Marko...Tampere concert, The Islander. All from Nightwish concerts. Again, love watching your face light up when reacting to this band.

[@Duskwind_]

Yes, Marko sings in many of their songs. He is the bands other lead singer. He is often known as "The Voice of Finland". Thanks so much for playing my favorite song 😂

[@randomman4938]

More songs by Nightwish from this very same concert I would recommend: (that include Marko) 1 - Romanticide 2 - Ghost River 3 - While Your Lips Are Still Red 4 - Wish I had an Angel

[@PomLimey]

Floor said that this was one of the most challenging songs to sing because it was originally sung by the first singer Tarja who only sung in an operatic voice. Floor wanted to sing it using mostly her head voice. There is a key change at the end of the song where it goes even higher! Marco is an awesome singer. To hear the beautiful timbre of his voice you should listen to “While Your Lips Are Still Red from Wembley. Nice reaction. Keep ‘em coming!

[@rashaverak666]

For Marko only people usually like Islander or Pink Floyd tribute High Hopes but I personally like the most While Your Lips Are Still Red live from Wembley.

[@GuidoGehtdichgarnixan]

Absolutely and exactly in this order!! 👍🏽

[@Debbie338]

I love that one, too!

[@ThumperE23]

Hope you enjoyed your Floorgasium, but you were treated to hearing Marco. Along with the other songs that were suggested for Marco, check out "Kiss While Your Lips are Still Red."

[@SuomenPaska]

Preferably the live at Wembley version!

[@gene6690]

The last minute of Everdream reminds one of a runaway steam train ......awesome

[@scwebb]

OK, the Marko list: While Your Lips Are Still Red (Wembley) Islander (Tampere) High Hopes (End Of An Era) Song Of Myself (Wacken) Romanticide (Wacken) Yours Is An Empty Hope (Mexico, maybe Wembley but please God not that awful cruise version) Phantom Of The Opera (End Of An Era - also hello Tarja 👋)

[@tonycardone990]

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes, Definitely not the cruise And Yes

[@galadballcrusher8182]

And from Tarot where he lead vocalist: Tides

[@TimoArula]

Well...At that time in 2013, this song was the most challenging vocal piece for Floor (believe it or not). And now, this song is not only in Nightwish setlist (Current tour), but in Floor's Solo Concert, that was in Amsterdam, as well (I still have to specify the set list for the Floor's upcoming solo tour, but one thing is certain, Floor loves this song) . I heard this song "Live" last year, and even without Marko, Floor did his parts beautifully and this song IS forever beautiful still on this day ! Well here is the band in this concert: The founder, leader, songwriter and the main composer: Tuomas Holopainen (Keyboards). The Viking and second vocalist: Marko Hietala (Ex member and Bass Player). The Pirate and cofounder: Jukka Nevalainen (ex Drummer, now works on bands management). The Trickster and cofounder: Emppu Vuorinen (purple guitar player). There is one more .... And New subscriber here !!!!!!!!!!!!! NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘

[@TheNightstalker80]

Your face, priceless! I've been waiting for it and it paid off 🙂 Hearing Marko for the first time, especially in this performance, is pretty surprising.

[@christoneymobile]

Yes, there are songs with Marko as the primary vocalist, if I'm not mistaken, they're in Gabriel's list and you will get to them in time. Marko also fronted a band called Tarot and is one of the vocalists for a band called Northern Kings (which has released several EPIC covers of familiar songs). He also released some solo singles, including one following his hiatus from the public eye and departure from Nightwish. 😢 Nightwish Army Arizona Division checking in. 🌵🇺🇲

[@christiandieckmann9828]

"The Islander" at Tampere. Marko is singing the whole song.

[@Mischnikvideos]

Before Nightwish, Marko Hietala founded Tarot with his brother in 1985 and was also successful with it in Finland. There he was the main singer with his brother. When he first meets Nightwish they have another bass player and he only gives Nightwish half a year. He also makes fun of the bassist for being drunk on stage. Soon after, Nightwish fires the bass player and Marko becomes his successor. Marko spelled it with a K in the original, made it a C to be cool, and then went back to the K because he thought it was idiotic. Although he left Nightwish due to depression and no longer wants to make music, he is now touring Finland with his solo program after a break.

[@DaxRaider]

i love nightwish, i loved them in alot of concerts since but i rly have to say, wacken 2013 is their absolut peak its the best complete show of any band i have ever seen. its perfect

[@Frightspear]

Every NW song is a journey, every song a story. Nightwish does Nightwish things!

[@robertbidzinski5988]

Hi , yes it is Marko absolutely wonderful vocalist and bass player , and of course 😍Floor , her extreme high-pitched voice will break glass in the windows😵🤪🤘

[@ericsaari2901]

Was waiting for it - that moment that Marko comes in. Didn't disappoint! Lol. This song is so amazing. Floor has said it is the hardest for her to sing. The second half of the song is off the rails with how high she is singing and belting consistently. For more Marko, maybe try a trip back in time to hen Tarja was the lead singer and they covered Phantom of the Opera. Marko and Tarja sing that amazingly. Marko also solos his song "The Islander" at Tempere. He also does a tribute to Pink Floyd from the same show that Phantom of the Opera comes from. He features in a few songs with Floor too. Try Romanticide from Wacken 2013. 🙂

[@RGP0503]

I shall also suggest later on listen to Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean live from Buenos Aires 2018. Floor and Marko do an absolutely amazing job. Cheers from Sweden.

[@chrisoleary1909]

Romanticide is probably next on your list, you'll get some good Marco on that. His best solo performance is probably High Hopes (Pink Floyd cover) at the End of an Era concert. That was the last concert with Their first singer, Tarja, (you'll get to hear Marco's Metal Phantom at that concert, too) Most Nightwish songs have at least Some Marco, and the blend of his voice with Floor's is always spectacular. Best Floor / Marco back and forth for money is Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean, Buenos Aires, 2018, Decades tour.

[@alinemckenna3710]

Marko is a legend! I LOVE him in Planet Hell (with Floor or Tarja, that song is one of my faves) and The Phantom of the Opera with Tarja from de End of an Era concert 👌😊

[@jeffwolinski2659]

The rehearsal video of them doing it with Annette is a must watch.

[@timhmetal3499]

Marco is a hella singer. He has lots of solo stuff too. Missing him since he left the band.

[@Zorros2ndCousinTwiceRemoved]

Ghost River, same concert. Another great Marko job and a great song to boot.

[@wolverine669]

"Kiss While Your Lips Are Still Red", "The Islander" (Live) and "High Hopes" and that's a Pink Floyd cover (Live)

[@RHTOWM]

Marko won the Finnish version of the Masked Singer. I love it when reactors get their first Marko experience with this particular song. And this reaction was just pure gold! There such a great Marko rabbit hole within the rabbit hole that is Nightwish. Marko also make several guest vocal appearances with other bands like Delain (eg. The Gathering, Sing to Me, and more)

[@mikaheinio1292]

To experience Nightwish live in Night setting ( light's, fire and smoke) is just amazing had privileged last time in December and next will be outdoor in Berlin June so only 2,5 months - you're reactions are great because your Express your emotions ( good or positive)

[@chriccolo]

Floor and Marko with: "While your lips are still red" in live are great

[@MikkoRantalainen]

I'd recommend the performance from Wembley.

[@tonycardone990]

No need to explain how you feel when you roll your eyes while listening to them. We've all had Floorgasms!

[@jamiefitzpatrick218]

A good track with Marko singing is "wish i had an Angel". Older one, but you will like it!!

[@MrDijaru]

Whoooooo Best singer and Live band of the World ,

[@tonycardone990]

For more Marco there's only two things to say, The Islander live from Tampere and High Hopes. Well actually not only two things but it's a good start.

[@judedornisch4946]

Marco is a lead singer in his own right and has fronted several bands. He also did a lot of the post production engineering of this DVD.

[@stevewilson8752]

Great Nightwish song 😝👍 Marco & Floor singing together were the best out there ! They compliment each other 100% Welcome to the Nightwish family chicki 😝👍 Nightwish Disciple from Australia 🇦🇺🏄‍♂️🍹

[@paulmaxey6377]

For Marko on his own listen or watch High Hopes which is a Pink Floyd cover and you can find them doing in the Tarja Era of the band, The Islander which you can find them doing at Tampere, and While Your Lips Are Still Red which you can find Live at Wembley. With him singing with Floor there are many but Romanticide, Yours is an Empty Hope (see if you can identify who is doing the growl/grunt in this song), a small part of The Poet and The Pendulum, The Greatest Show on Earth and I Wish I Had An Angel just to name a few so don't worry you will hear Marko sing a lot more if you keep listening.

[@joseluis.santander]

Love your reaction, everytime with every Nightwish song I have the same reactions for 21 years 🤘

[@Misakitaro76]

"when you're lips are still red" with marco, such beautifull song

such powerful song with a singer like her so captivating that voice

[@joshuaburba1048]

Did someone say she wants to hear only Marko singing? Time to listen to "The Islander" my dear. Trust me, you'll be pleasantly surprised and blown away.

[@chriso6719]

Welcome to Marko's vocal abilities.🤘🤘He sang backing or co-lead on a lot of songs, and lead on a few, including The Islander, and their cover/tribute of Pink Floyd's High Hopes. He was lead singer of a band called Tarot before joining Nightwish in 2001. Unfortunately, he decided to leave the band for personal reasons in 2021. Yep, same concert, song # 5 of 15, just before Storytime. Floor has said that this is one of the more challenging songs for her to sing. Originally sung by Tarja on the 4th album, Century Child in 2002. Recommend Romanticide from this show next-MORE MARKO!!! lol

[@flamedealership]

Agreed - this is a sun fong😁💛 And if you continue exploring them you'll never find something you won't like. Also very recommendable: "The Poet and the Pendukum" - they don't perform it live anymore due to it bringing up too painful memories. If you want to listen to it do a little background search on that song so you'll know the story. When the time comes to actually listen to it be sure you've got a box of tissue at hand. When Floor starts singing the last segment you certainly will be in a puddle of tears. At least I am everytime I hear it! You can hear more of Marko in a NW context if you watch their version of "Phantom of the opera" and "Ave Maria", no matter if you choose a version with Tarja or Floor. They're equally exceptional good in these...

[@ladydalida6917]

Nightwish Army South Germany Division I agree 100%. And like I said, without knowing the background to this masterpiece, it's very difficult to understand what's being said. A note of a technical nature: With this work, and this also applies to "The Greatest Show on Earth", you should definitely display the lyrics or have them displayed on a second monitor. Parts of the lyrics are very quiet and are sometimes so drowned out by the music that they are barely understandable. This should be borne in mind if one wishes to make anything based on these two masterpieces. Greetings from Germany the lady

[@jovetj]

6:54 YES! YES! You are SPOT ON, ma'am! Tuomas (band's leader, on the keyboards) does an amazing job writing the music. I'm sure he pours every drop of his soul into it. You can feel it in some of the heaver songs. And it's not just the lyrics that are "not canned" but the music itself is very beautiful and bespoke. I'm really enjoying your videos because you're making all these great points about Nightwish, and you're not bookending videos with a lot of rambling. And welcome to Marko! Both he and Jukka (drummer here) have left the band in the past few years but they are BOTH sorely missed!

[@soulis1000]

Its the synth guy that is the genious that creates all the songs.

[@zoranbl1990]

Floorgasm (Floor hitting those high notes) all over the place-gotta love it. Marco adding some at the end of chorus just to make it even more legendary. This band is special

[@frenkwd1]

" Ever Dream " is the sixth single by Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. Released as the first single from the band's fourth studio album, Century Child, it was the group's first single in two years, following " Deep Silent Complete " in 2000. The song is more operatic in nature than later works and the music itself is more on the heavy metal side. It is still played live since 2002 until today. "Ever Dream" was certified with Gold Disc in Finland two days after its release, with more than 5,000 copies sold, and later received Platinum Disc with more than 10,000 copies sold.

[@thekillingtomat]

i always recommend checking out the islander live @ tampere after people hear ever dream. it is my favorite nightwish song and its a fantastic display of marko skills

[@isaiahwelch8066]

@Rayactions: Rachel, that face you made, hearing Marko, made this whole video! What I haven't read in the comments is that Marko, interestingly enough, won a European version of The Masked Singer only a few years ago! That being said: I love Ever Dream because it is the most accurate interpretation, musically, of what it's like to be in love. And, this song is the only one I've ever heard a drummer and singer -- Floor and Jukka (pronounced "yoo•ka") -- duet perfectly during a bridge: Floor's vocals sounding desperate, and the drum fills feeling almost frantic. Yet Floor and Jukka pull it off flawlessly. And then, if that's not enough, Jukka just jams it into another gear, and the song just accelerates -- which is when we get to see and hear Floor's belting. And up until Shoemaker on Human :||: Nature, Floor said this was the most difficult song for her to sing.

[@MrDijaru]

See this from the netherlands on of the best live singer of the world .nightwish 🤟🤟🤟

[@mormacil]

Marko is really really solid in the Phantom of the Opera with the original singer, Tarja. Also a good introduction to her. Might be an interesting reaction if you want to see Floor's take on it as well. Not to rank who's better but by having perspective.

[@djmelotte8220]

Yes More Marko! Romanticide, Ghost River, The Islander…….❤❤❤❤

[@brandonchurch9023]

Haven't seen anyone mention it, so I'll mention it. "I Wish I Had An Angel" features a lot of Marko, along with the band's original singer, Tarja Turunen. Excellent song, and they really lean into the metal! (For a much softer song from Nightwish, I'd highly recommend an older one called "Sleeping Sun", also with Tarja singing.) 😁🤘🌞

[@dougel4709]

Marko unfortunately left the band just over a year ago, exhausted by industry politics and facing some mental health needs, but yes, he left a beautiful legacy: The Islander While Your Lips are Still Red High Hopes (Pink Floyd tribute) Phantom of the Opera (2005 with Tarja) Yours is an Empty Hope Romanticide and of course, their two long masterworks you haven't seen yet: The Poet and the Pendulum (an intensely personal ballad of criminal execution and longing for death based on Tuomas' feelings as he and the band fired his childhood friend and first Nightwish singer, Tarja, publicly) and The Greatest Show on Earth (a powerful, meaningful work on the evolution of life, music, and mankind).

[@dutchladylover]

Tuomas Holopainen is the mastermind behind the songs and lyrics. And Sadly Marko left the band last year (citing depression and a disillusionment with the music industry)
