Marko and Tarja reconciled / "cleaned the table" in 2017, when they were both on the "Raskasta Joulua" tour in Finland and beautifully sang together "Ave Maria" kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2PIXoN_qLqLftEsi=R1D6hNfnQ6G3l-Tq They both then, in the following years had health problems and separate music careers (and lives), so it's understandable that they weren't really in touch for some time after. But they were already ok again in 2017. Then last year (summer 2023) both Marko's solo band and Tarja's solo band were booked to play 2 festivals on the same day. 1st was in Switzerland, 2nd in Finland and Tarja took the initiative to ask Marko to sing 1 song together on stage with her (at her show). Switzerland one is very emotional and worth it for that kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2O4mZVpfcZje7Msi=iA-2tNyVRPBqdAAF , but I think as a vocal and general performance, the later Finland one is better of the two kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqvZeKZ3Z8lseZosi=BfmQ46A8nuQXQ_KG Marko brought to Switzerland the demo to "Left on Mars" to ask Tarja to join him on it. They have been singing it live since the 28th of february, the first show day of the tour they are doing together now. RIGHT NOW: Marko and Tarja are touring together in south america and will also do festival shows in the summer. They seem to be friends again. Both will still have their separate music careers as their main job, but they will also tour and record some stuff together again occasionally, going forward. The following songs are the ones they have sung together on the current tour, with a few links to better quality fan videos. On the tour every night Marko sings 5-6 acoustic songs solo before Tarja sings ~6 songs alone with her full band, then Marko joins her for ~6 songs, Tarja sings few more alone again and they will do the last one together.

I really love this song for more than one thing...of course having Tarja and Marko singing together is such a great thing! Their voices compliment each other so well..& it shows they have left the past behind! Oh...as for the music...as I believe Marko is 58 years old...as I am 66....so I believe Marko might have been a Led Zeppelin fan in the mid to late 1970's. The opening of the song has a definite homage to Led Zeppelin's hit song, Kashmir. It may take you a few times listening to the song...but I knew right away that Marko knew exactly what he was doing!!! This song is a masterpiece... and I will be listening to it many, many times!

I don't know how Marko managed this, but the sound of the song is alien somehow, you feel like you're on another planet.

Definitely they don`t go for operatic feeling, most likely for purpose! This is more like power metal style… and I like it! It would be boring to them to mimic Nightwish! They do something very different in here, even the genre still is metal, it is different metal.

Thanks for your reaction. I saw them in Mar del Plata, Argentina 🇦🇷 on March 1, 2024 . It was an amazing performance. Their voices blend so well , gorgeous 🥰. This song sounds beautiful live. I didn't record this song because when Marko said it was new, I really prefered to listen carefully 😊. Btw I left two of my videos of that show...

In fact there are some, as Marko is doing Tarja's tour with her. Below is one of the videos I found with the best sound quality. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJu7k6yfnpJ5iNU And this recording is closer to the stage and perhaps the sound is not as clean, but it's still a great recording kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHa1iJuYnaqqY6c

I love Tarja and Marko my fellow finns. But how is it that you have never heard a similar type of song before? My take is that Led Zeppelin left them on mars with one single. Kashmir.

True, Zeppelin vibes for sure. But it fits this song just perfectly!

I like Tarja whit operatic voice, I dont like her voice in these songs. Her ”normal” voice is not honey to my ears. She is just a mediocre singer to my opinion.
