BREAKDOWN! Old Rock Radio DJ Breaks Down MARCO HIETALA ft. "Dead God's Son"

[@danettecrossley7912]

Marco just loves music, he's the grandfather of Finnish metal just for the love of it God bless

[@seanreeb3937]

Please for the love of god do "voice of my father" from this album

[@gailbreslin5441]

I concur!

[@parrotheadlasvegas]

I CONCUR 🤘

[@hannegran6123]

I concur. The version in Finnish " Isäni ääni" has even more emotional impact even if you don' t understand the words

[@Qwarzz]

I concur. This one will be even sadder to listen after my own father is gone. It did remind me that I'm not visiting him nearly often enough these days.

[@3534538]

I concur. I agree with Hanne Gran, the Finnish version is even better.

[@kezca]

The legend marko, loved it. Thankyou for sharing your reaction to this one.

[@littleraven28]

Marko is an incredible singer and while this is not a new song, it has been out for 2 yrs ( this is a new video) it's an awesome song. I love it. as for which one next from this album, it doesn't matter I like 'em all.

[@ToTheWolves]

It's been almost 4 years lol

[@littleraven28]

@@ToTheWolves true, Pyre of the black heart was a re-release 😎

[@debbieparnell292]

He speaks to my soul. I so appreciate Marco.

[@amygoodson-catlady]

Was so happy to see Nuclear Blast is finally promoting this project! Pyre of the Black Heart came out (1st in Finnish, then in English) b4 covid lockdowns and Marko did a bunch of gigs (in both languages) b4...then the momentum was stunted. I love this record in both languages...bought them both, listen to both equally. Thank you for supporting Marko Hietala! A legend of a rockstar!

[@rog2224]

His acoustic set on a Finnish chat show in 2019 is really good. Isäni ääni is a really solid album

[@amygoodson-catlady]

@@rog2224 That's just one song off of the Pyre album...right? Cuz I have it...but if there's a whole other album...lmk so I can buy it!

[@davidhill7055]

This guy never ceases to amaze me. Marco was pretty good too.😁 Talent on loan from God. A perfect voice for metal.

[@elenasnchez7434]

Marco Hietala..aaaaamazing beautiful man powerful voice God of Metal

[@VesaH76]

Great group of top notch artists with Marko. ✌️🙂 Try also songs "Stones" and really emotional song called "The voice of my father".

[@Masterlitchuk]

I concur!

[@spikenelson6669]

i concur on voice of my father but the finnish version iisani aani is a better version

[@isislady4395]

@@spikenelson6669 i concur in the finnish version

[@Pappa_66]

Thank you again! Great reaction again! Great albums/song/video. Marko is one of the Metal OGs! Best Regards from Finland!

[@bartonbagnes4605]

Incredible performance. 🤘😆🤘

[@deborahfoster5520]

If you want to hear Marko’s history, a good video to watch is Marko Hietala-Vocal Evolution 1986-2017. Just for personal listening probably because it’s 44:06 minutes long. 😊💜💚

[@Magic_Pumpkin_Poetry]

Really love this album, also love that it is available in both Finnish and English and despite being English myself I manytimes pick the Finnish version to listen to, somehow hits deeper, only way I can describe it. My 11 year old son loves Marko too and grew his hair the same because of him 🖤 but yes, fantastic album!

[@Green-Lyon]

Same. For some reason the Finnish really speaks to me (though I can not speak back, lol).

[@riittasihvonen2011]

Louise Berg here in comments below attached the link truly worth checking out. Marco and the whole group is fantastic!!!!

[@JariJuslin]

Your analysis here is so poetic it's like art.

[@martinehermans6661]

Live they were brilliant too, saw them in the Melkweg Amsterdam. It was the last show I went to before lockdown, at the last song I did my last windmill. Afterwards the band came to greet in the lobby so I could give them all the thanking hug. I could give Marko a heart shaped rosequarts as a thnxx for all the music and all he gives. He was the last man I hugged until it wasn't scaring the hell out of everyone anymore... his music and that hug were so helpful during the pandemic. (BTW, the album came out in both English and Finnish and is so worth to buy)

[@Dread_Pirate62]

I’ve had Pyre of The Black Heart since it came out in English, it’s a solid album through out.

[@spikenelson6669]

i concur

[@elvwood]

I concur - and now I'm learning Finnish I think I should get the Finnish version too...

[@larryd4352]

First time hearing Marcos new band! The lyrics were really good and kept my attention for the whole song. Marco's vocals were a bit different than what I expected, in a very good way! I will have to look for more of his new stuff!

[@merileopardisaksassa7030]

You quoted a study my brother was co-running! In a Marko video... Awesome :D

[@melaniemarc6739]

Juste être là et profiter de cette présence 😊 C'est un peu glauque peut-être mais j'ai déjà décidé des morceaux de Marco pour mon enterrement 😅😅😅😅😅

[@frank1963]

Great reaction again Eric. The other day I was rewatching an older reaction from you to Marco, and you wondered what would happen if he collaborates with Arjen Lucassen. Well he did a couple of times. And since you just did a reaction to Blind Guardian, I give you a link to “ Age of Shadows “ it’s a live Ayreon concert, with Hansi and Marco singing. And some other singer I don’t know. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2jaoKiupJd0nKc

[@dana7325]

I concur

[@gailbreslin5441]

I concur!

[@JackM.]

You could do Marko's cover band called Sapattivuosi. They sing Black Sabbath songs in Finnish. Tony Iommi said he loved the cover of Neon Knights. It's here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpSug2afl9Cqm9U

[@CapriFB]

Also Tarot cover of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is awesome.

[@hedwig8007]

I concur

[@runkkariruune]

An acute reaction. Kiitos!

[@ievazagante5527]

I have English version of this album for a couple of years. Or is it and updated version? You should check "The voice of my father" and official music video of "Stones".

[@hannegran6123]

It would be interesting to hear Your analysis on differences in the same song sung either in English or in Marko' s and my mother tongue Finnish : Voice of my Father / Isäni ääni. Some not- Finnish speaking person heared a difference in the emotional impact

[@hannegran6123]

I listened to both versions one after another and to my ears / mind there is quite a difference the Finnish version being much stronger

[@tuuli4002]

I concur!!

[@eilak9702]

I concur !

[@HobDobson]

(re: vocal chicanery?) "I didn't say he said she did that." Every change to which words are stressed changes the meaning. You have to admire performers who put in the work to get such things right. Just like there's no separating Janis Joplin from the blues, Marko Hietala could show up clean-shaven in a suit to sing a solemn hymn *and it would still be metal*.

[@D-ragon-S]

Thanks again Eric for giving me free lessons and insights. Really appreciate it! Much Love to you and Ukraine 💙💛💙🌻🌻🌻

[@varsim5691]

THANK YOU!!🤩🤘🤘 Marko ❤

Hey Eric..check out Marco Hietala..Death march for freedom..Official video..I love it..Keep it up and hello from Denmark.

[@NickBR57]

Had to laugh at the idea that Marco was performing at 7 years old😁 The album was 2019 in Finnish and released with the English title in 2020. The Voice of My Father was released on YT in Jan 2020.

[@tuomaspuumalainen3018]

Hee-e-tala, New-can-en, emphasis on the first syllable in Ollila, not Ol-lee-la. Finnish is easy, eh? Great reaction as always!

[@parrotheadlasvegas]

MARKO 😁 Thanks for this 😊 I highly recommend Stones kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5fGZJp4qLJpeJI and Death March for Freedom (there's a live video for that one kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZ-UaaOPd5prY7c ) from this album 😉 Also you might enjoy the same album in the original Finnish 👍 Thanks for a great video and keep rocking 🤘😎🎸

[@AlfaJones]

The funny thing is though that some of the songs were first written in Finnish but some in English so neither version of the album is fully "the original." (Dead God's Son being one that was originally in English.)

Se on Nykänen ;). Finnish names may be difficult for English speakers 😅.

Uhm... Song title on the video is wrong 😂 It's "Dead GOD'S SON", not vice versa 😊

[@TheWyldesidewithEricClark]

Good catch! Surprised it took that long for someone to point that out. If I had a T-shirt, you'd be a winner! Cheers! Eric

You said Tuomas' name right freaking guitar God 🤘🤘🤘

[@martinehermans6661]

All he needs now is to practice on Hietala ;-)

[@NeeceLoneWolf]

Commenting as I'm watching. Tony Kakko, if you hear young Tony talking English compared to nearly 48 yr old Tony talking English, it's changed absolutely. Same with Jari from Wintersun. The more Jari does the Wintersun podcast his English cadence has changed.
