Troy is using an EBOW, or electronic Bow. Battery powered and vibrates the strings, making it sound similar to being played with a violin type bow. To put Marko's opening comments in context, this was in London, not long after the Paris nightclub bombings. The song isn't an official Nightwish song, Tuomas and Marko wrote it for the 2007 Finnish movie ,Lieksa (The Matriarch). Jukka played drums on the recording. Troy's guitar with EBOW and Floor's backing vocals, are additions to the song. Floor was intentionally hanging back, making sure Marko gets the spotlight.

[@michaeldecker3480]

Marco has a shirt that says "Floor is my back-up singer".

[@user-Rockmagix]

I guess, if you are able to call Floor your background singer you made it for sure.

[@mariogansbeke]

5:11 You missed Floor.. she was sitting on the stairs in front of Kai.

[@bennybuffylove]

One of my favorite songs by Marko. This is a similar situation and type song Marko did at the Tampere 2015 concert performing "The Islander" song, which you reacted to 10 months ago.

[@JariJuslin]

Yes! I was listening to her comments and was in disbelief, hasn't she heard the Islander! But apparently has, just forgotten it.

[@yourwinefamily1939]

Highly suggest "The Islander" (with Marko intro) live at Tampere. Also Nightwish's tribute cover to Pink Floyds: "High Hopes", beautiful, soaring vocals from Marko.

[@NeeceLoneWolf]

Rock in Rio

[@kafilrecherche1855]

You`ll sure enjoy The Islander live at Tempere.

[@craigbolton5093]

Troy is using an E-Bow- It vibrates the strings and provides unlimited sustain

[@rcreynolds6186]

Very fun gadget to use. Hard to master though.

[@Bonovin]

Marco and Tuomas wrote this song for a movie in Finland . Greetings from nwAse Sweden

[@Ortti]

Lieksa was The movie

[@silverblack5475]

That's what he means by that .....Floors a pretty good backup singer .

[@jerkkola81]

My wife and I had this as our "wedding waltz" in our wedding. Really beautiful song.

[@alexthorpe6583]

People used to joke that Marko could get a t-shirt to wear that said 'Floor Jansen is my backup singer!'. I'm glad you had the captions on. I'm familiar enough with the music, but with the captions on, I could sing along.

[@craigbolton5093]

When Nightwish had two lead vocalists...

[@Liam94Smith]

How are they managing now? Does the current bassist even sing anything?

[@dmj4966]

Troy can sing, not same as Marco, but check out My Walden or The Carpenter as examples....

[@craigbolton5093]

@@dmj4966 Oh, Troy is good- really good, but I wouldn't rank him as "lead"

[@dmj4966]

@@craigbolton5093 that's fair, at least not the same range and versatility as a singer. I do like his tone and subtlety in his choices on vocals tho. That said, Marco could lead any band (have u heard Wings of Darkness with Tarot?), while Troy is more specialized as a vocalist.

[@PB-Trinity]

@@Liam94Smith He can sing but has expressed no will to do so in Nightwish. Floor took over some Marko parts (they delivered a full female Planet Hell during the last tour), Troy took over in other songs (Last Ride of the Day, I Want My Tears Back, 7 Days to the Wolves among others) and sometimes it's the both of them together. There are definitely some songs that we won't here live anymore but the band catalog is quite large, so...

[@callumhart3716]

I was at this show and me and my friends cried when he sang this, can't believe this was 8 and a half years ago 😢

[@glenngunnis6642]

Floor was sitting on the drum riser.🎸🤘

[@rickphil9999]

Another fantastic reaction by you to our beloved Nightwish. This song really highlights the lighter side of Marko's tremendous vocal talent, as does The Islander in Tampere, which you have already reacted to. Thank you.

[@harrybroaddus846]

Yeah, this is a magical song/performance.

[@larryd4352]

Such a beautiful, and romantic song, along with missing those that have passed on before ua! I love it when Troy pulls out his EBOW's....I think he has a different one he uses in "The Greatest Show on Earth" which sounds like a Cello.

[@stpfs9281]

"Drown into eyes, while they're still blind" Unrequited love? Magical Marko, the quiet, softer and then the louder bits. Yes, Floor, as his backing singer :) Troy playing one of his many instruments, with an E-Bow.

[@jroutasula5250]

Markos solo album and song "My Fathers Voice". Check it out.

[@duncanwyer2460]

🇬🇧 Norfolk : Marco the most consistent singer of Nightwish so good 😊

This song made to movie "Lieksa!". It is place in Finland.

[@danellwein8679]

good reaction Ray .. this is one of my favorite songs by Nightwish

[@dionysislarson6352]

If you like some Markos, I'd check out their album The Sound Of Nightwish Reborn. It's got some demos on it from before Anette joined up so he did all the singing. Hearing Marko sing The Poet and the Pendulum is an experience.

[@pekkakarppinen1608]

Kiss your pet Martians 👽! This beautiful little song is made for a Finish movie "Lieksa!" (Pölönen, 2007). This live performance is perfect. And Troy is using the E-bow device to make some string sounds with his guitar.

[@arimottonen]

Nice reaction, keep up the good work! 🤗 You should check recently released song "Left On Mars", from Marko Hietala feat Tarja Turunen. They came back together with new material for a first time since Tarja was released from Nightwish, and it´s so nice to hear and see that happening. 🤘

[@dmj4966]

The Islander at Tampiere is more contained, and recenet collab with Exit Eden called Run is as well

[@NeeceLoneWolf]

The Islander Rock in Rio. He sings with his Northern Kings band mate Tony Kakko. Floor rushes out to take a pic of Tony.

[@leksater]

Troy is using E-Bow.

[@user-no4kz9zm4c]

Marco also sounds fantastic singing HIGH HOPES [ a Pink Floyd cover[ He was a very underrated singer

[@safasancaktaroglu8849]

I wouldnt say he's underrated because he has tons of fana from all over the world and he is a legend in Finland

[@ericbraun4652]

You are the ONLY person on FB I've seen that caught Floor's first vocal part. It's so gentle it slips by everyone else the first time they hear it. It's at 4:40 on your video.

[@justitia257]

Beautiful

[@alexandremaireno-ni4ec]

Understandably people keep recommending "High Hopes" and "The Islander", but I'd like to see you reacting to "Endlessness", my favorite song with Marko singing lead

[@Mars-is4un]

🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 great job !

[@simonroy7383]

It's called an E-bow, and it vibrates the strings of the guitar

[@kquincy3068]

Marco won Finland’s version of the masked Singer I believe in 2022. He sings everything from Backstreet Boys to Prince Elton John. You should really check that out if you want to listen to Marco and his vocals.

[@daassaik5906]

I love you raya❤❤❤

[@jasonmarshall7572]

The two different concerts Nightwish performed The greatest show on earth the Tampere concert and this one the Wembley concert. There is some differences like Tampere they had the fireworks timed with the keyboard but the Wembley version Troy has his guitar and EBOW in the beginning. If you haven't seen both versions yet it maybe worth another look at this amazing song.

[@paisa20]

Thanks

[@mikenieradko8877]

If you like this side of Marco, then check out some of the live videos with his older (now broken up) band "Tarot" from Finland. I'd recommend the live video of the song "Tides".

[@kquincy3068]

And yes, that’s what the title is referring to kiss while your lips are still red while you still have life in you. This is a song done for a movie and I can’t call the name of it but it’s a foreign film if you look at their official video for this one you’ll see bits of this movie.

[@onewingedsparrow8190]

Ray, you're adorable. Just look into marko's other work. He does a LOT. He was on masked singer, he has solo albums and northern kings is an experience of it's own.

[@Jp-nv2gi]

Since you liked this you need to check out the islander live at rampart , sorry my spelling isn't good , its a very good song

[@ragde2163]

❤❤❤

[@djstraylight]

The biggest problem with this song is that its too short!

[@gork8468]

If you want "Some more of this" then listen to his solo stuff or his Tarot stuff. This is Marco's 'sound', more or less.

[@Thorgrim247]

That is called an Ebow. A magnetic device that vibrates the string to allow for a violin style sustain on the guitar.

[@elinielsen5556]

...or....love while you are still alive...so important.

[@Tohak]

Have you ever heard Meatloaf's song I'd Do Anything For Love? Just remembered it while watching this video

''While Your Lips Are Still Red'' I think he means while you are still young and your lips looks red without any makeup .....and other things that happens when you get old.

If you want a more 'mellow' Marko voice, you must do 'Voice of My Father'... not Nightwish, but Marko and supporting band.

[@sumonjamal1653]

"While your lips are still red"... implies that the girl still has love & passion for the guy. The music video had scenes from the Finnish movie "Lieksa!" ... The song was recorded in 2007 when Anette Olzen was the singer in Nightwish and released on their live CD 'Made in Hong Kong'. Marko Hietala recently released a solo album... he had his own rock band Tarot which released a few albums w/ Marko on lead vocals and they debuted in 1986 (Marko is a lot older, age 58 today, than the members of Nightwish; Tuomas is 47)

You don't have to focus on Floor all the time. Marco often sings lead with Floor backing and people don't realise it.

[@Starlingus]

Good example of this is Weak Fantasy

[@noneofyerbeeswax8194]

But I WANT to focus on Floor all the time!😁

[@lillianekockritz2796]

Floor is not a diva who wants to be in the spotlight all the time. She - as all members of Nightwish do - steps back when the song demands it. At this concert she even abstained from dancing all over the stage at "I want my tears back" when it came to the long instrumental part so that Troy with his Uillean Pipes had all the spotlight in his home country.

[@NickBR57]

@@lillianekockritz2796 Exactly my point. She sits in the number for a while and that was completely missed ("is she offstage?") - she just doesn't want to take Marco's limelight because it isn't her song.
