Nightwish - Master Passion Greed | THE WOLF HUNTERZ Reactions

[@TheMspacmann]

This is the kind of music you get when Tuomas is pissed off. This one was aimed towards Tarja's husband. EDIT: This was off The Dark Passion Play album. The first without Tarja on vocals, and the same album as Poet and the Pendulum. This will likely never be played live, as it brings a lot of feelings to Tuomas

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

Cody E oh! Fascinating! We love it!

[@timomastosalo]

It's a shame, because the lyrics are not obvious if you don't know the story. It could be 'repurposed', maybe like against the abuse of women. But of course it has to be something the band can stand behind. I just feel it's a lost opportunity for the audience to vent their feelings in a concert.

[@jaxi00]

Both Tarja and Marcelo ended up to get a song. 'Bye, Bye Beautiful' is a message to Tarja.

[@TerranigmaQuintet]

Actually because he put these things behidn him, and its a tad awkward to be sinigng such a hatefilled song when you yourself have long since moved on.

[@folkme3042]

Thank you for the info my friend.

[@kaantje4807]

Knowing the story behind it, I understand that they never will play this live, but I must say I love this pissed of creation of Tuomas and Marko.

[@faiffull3532]

its refreshing to see them poor out their true feelings instead of hiding behind Poet and Pendulum

[@faiffull3532]

oh yes, the ever set upon Tuomas, the perpetual victim of the world

[@Desolaytore]

Dont think fans tend to give a damn about their reasons, they still want to hear it live. Same could be said about Dino from Fear Factory not wanting to play anything from the Archetype album live.

[@vaclavplachta6539]

Only with an understanding of why the music was created will you enjoy every detail of this great song.

[@ferretmom66]

This is from 2007. They have said it will never be performed live, as it's directed at Tarja's husband/manager.

[@Amaranthos2]

This is what it sounds like when the full wrath of Tuomas lets an enraged Marco vent off a head of steam The song was never performed live, and never will be due to the nature of the lyrics. To this day it still remains their heaviest song

[@fraukehammer4624]

I love your reaction. this one i mus send, Why is Emppu the most underrated gitarrist in the world? There are so many reactor and the don`t talk about him.

[@darkshadow139]

There is no official video for this song, but there was a fan made one that is awesome. This is to date their heaviest song, and too my knowledge has never been played live, since from what I understand it was a song personal to Tuomas explaining his anger towards Tarja's husband at the time of her firing, and that because of this, no official video was made, and it was never played live. Even though it was an expression of anger I'm sure their was still respect for tarja. I really hope they have mended fences over the years.

[@NeeceLoneWolf]

Marko and Tarja have. Ave Maria it's KZbin post Tarja being fired. The feelings between Tarja and Marko are beautiful.

[@parrotheadlasvegas]

Tarja and Marko were at a festival at the same time recently. There were worries before amongst the fans, but they apparently spoke. She’s still nowhere near speaking with Tuomas.

[@danwhitehousepc]

[@SandraNelson063]

The events behind this happened over 10 years ago. It's DONE. Everybody involved has grown up. They just aren't THERE anymore. Deep cleansing breathes, everyone! Yes, Nightwish IS capable of this kind of mayhem. But they have no reason to be this angry anymore.

[@oo.llpee.7457]

Well, to be exact, events happened long before Tarja was fired, and that was already 15 years ago. Can't believe how fast time flies by.

[@xeleelex146]

hope they have grown up but in my experience if you are bitter, resentful manchild, you stay that way

[@faiffull3532]

if he played this tripe live, he would have lost the remainder of Nightwish fans who only came to see Tarja anyway

[@eFiend]

yes! and I'm gonna take it further. Some will axe me. same with poet and the pendulum. if a reactor does it for the music which is awesome, no need to dislike it if the didn't researching it. because it's about the music in the long run.

Thanks guys. I was looking forward to this. The best songs seem to be made in times of great emotion. When I first heard this I repeated this many times in a row. Went under the skin at the time and still works. I think one of many of Marco’s best performances.

[@EricManktelow]

I would love to see this live but Tuomas has said it'll never happen. Tuomas was in a dark and angry place with this one same as Poet and the Pendulum and he's not that person anymore, he's happy so whilst the current line up stays stable (for ever I hope) I doubt we'll ever hear another Nightwish song that's pure fury like this.

[@alexojeda9048]

This is Tuomas' way of getting something off his chest; a direct shot at Tarja's husband/manager who sowed some seeds of discord within the band. It's their heaviest song IMO and will never be played live unfortunately. If it was, I'm a 110% positive that the crowd would go ape-shit!!!

A hugely underrated Nightwish song. From the first album with Anette Olzen, this has surprising no official video, nor live video. For me this should be played live and it also gives Marko another song to share with everyone his amazing vocals.

This an older song that they do not perform anymore.. It's a smack back reaction song right after the band broke away from there first lead singer "Tarja".. They were not fooled, They realized a lot of Tarja's attitude change towards money and her solo career was due to then Husband/Manager at the time.. This is to him.. You can hear it, with lyrics like "the stench of your lies draws flies"...

[@faiffull3532]

is that why she turned down numerous, far better job offers, for 9 years and finally decided to leave a band she established and set out into an unknown, because she was greedy .. logic dictates otherwise...this is pure display of delusional anger and jealousy

[@majbrat]

[@monicacarolina6480]

An "ode" to Marcello, Tarja's husband. The greed he had, destroyed their band. Forbidding Tarja to perform in the States, because the small venues were not bringing in enough money (small audience in the USA) not letting her travel with the guys, but needing her own tourbus, not letting her rehearse the songs with the band. He is some evil, greedy and insecure dude and you feel the anger and hate they feel towards him. This message is SO powerful, it must have been not a joke having a song like this deticated to you. I just love how they express their feelings in their music. True feelings from admiration, love to despite and hate. Bye bye beautiful is a message to Tarja herself, also angry...but not this hateful. When you listened to these songs, you understand the Poet and the pendulum even more. (you in general) Thank you

New song? Yeah, just recently came out. Just 13 years ago or so.... 😉😂🤣🤣. This is from the album Dark Passion Play, which was the first album that featured Anette, after Tarja’s dismissal. The Poet And The Pendulum is from the same album. Dark Passion Play is a very dark album, because it deals with all the negativity that surrounded Tarja’s dismissal. This particular song is a reference to Tarja’s husband, who was seen by the band as the one who turned Tarja against them, driven by the greed for more money, according to the lyrics... Another great track from this album is Bye Bye, Beautiful, which is directly addressed to Tarja.

[@isaiahwelch8066]

Just saying a couple of things: 1) If you listen closely at 5:38, you can hear shades of Noise, with the drums. 2) Speaking of the drums: Can we get a shout-out to Jukka on this?? Because the Pirate is at it again, and he fucking _rocks_ on the drums, in this song!

How are you? Let me explain one thing. All for her and more for me Why is it so hard to see? I see no sense in doing this Not enough for me I fuck up everything but let me explain.” Some day you shall flee, Panting and weak Master passion greed All within me gone but pain and hope Hoping that the pain would fade away Greed, your master passion I Feed the mouth that bites me Mammon, opiate of the masses The reek of your lies draws flies Seek her Seduce her Tame her Blame her Have her Kill her Feast on it all With awakening the tears will begin To my everlasting shame silence took me

There are a few songs that helped Tuomas emotionally by venting, coping, basically overcome all the tragedy and backlash.
