Awesome Pink Floyd cover by the finnish band Nightwish **This is property of Nightwish and Warner Music Group, I do not own this recording and I am not making or trying to make any profit of it.**
Marko is such an underrated vocalist, simply because he's a back up vocalist in a female fronted band with world class singers. But when he gets the stage, he delivers.
checkout the live version of The Islander at Tampere. Marco sings and Floor backs him up, lol. What a high, even for a pro, to have Floor be your back-up vocalist... even if it was just for a song.
Это одна из самых любимых песен за всю мою жизнь. Я безумно люблю ее именно в исполнении Марко и только его пронизывающий до глубины души вокал, задевающий все струны внутри способен на такой полет. Эта песня целиком и полностью его. Он в ней растворился, он с ней сроднился. Невероятно талантливый человек. Обожаю! Марко, мы любим и ждем твое творчество не смотря ни на что.
I came here to say goodbye to the great Marko Hietala. I love his version of high hopes and I'll miss him on Nightwish. The best of luck for you Marko, the grass was greener and the light was brighter with you on the band.
He has left the door ajar. We may one day see a reunion if the issues raised are resolved. That does happen with bands (Bruce Dickenson and Dave Murray, Iron Maiden / Rob Halford, Judas Priest), although the case here is unusual as it's both medical and operational. I'll say fare the well, Marko, and all the hope I can give that things become better.
The man had some fucking awesome pipes. I still dont really understand why he would leave, he said industry reasons and being held back in his career... man you play in front of 80k people on a monday night your not being held back man :3 it sucks but he is fantastic, one of the greatest male vocalists EVER imo.
@@TheFoeni007 he left the band as well as the public life. I can’t blame the guy. Truly gifted bass player and absolutely amazing vocalist. One of my favorite musicians of all time. I think he just reached that point and he said “I’m done”
"The grass was greener...the light was brighter..." Let`s hope one day the grass becomes as green and the light as bright. Good luck to you, great maestro of vocal and bass. Take care. We pray you`re not gone for good really. HAIL MARKO!
As a fan of Floyd going back to the 60's, I tip my hat to Nightwish on an excellent cover and my deep appreciation of covering a song that speaks to our generation's reflections about the sacrifice of our dreams in order the live the nightmare of others. My hope for those coming behind us is to learn from our folly and not follow in our mistakes. My dreams for you is to be better than we were.
i don't tip my hat at all, i don't like this version at all, it loses all the emotional sensations that the floyd brings. The soul of the song is destroyed.
@@coco_bold Nightwish didn't do it that bad, but the end of the song in fact destroys the atmosphere of the Floyd original what is really sad. You know the Gruhak cover? They've done it better by far.
Marko ist ein Weltstar, seine Stimme und sein Können am Bass ist unübertrefflich. Ich habe noch nie etwas Besseres gehört. Dieses Cover ist so dermaßen gut, es ist immer wieder ein Erlebnis. Marko und Yucca sind nicht zu toppen. Es ist sehr traurig, dass es diese Konstellation nicht mehr geben wird. 😢
He is the former drummer Jukka replaced by Kai. Jukka suffered from insomnia and story tells he got migraine attack during this performance. Note first the nod from Tuomas at the keyboard and later Emppu at the guitar goes to check if everything is alright (jumps back to front stage) .
This is the way a cover should be treated... with so much respect, honor, soul and character. A lot of people could imitate something but use something great already created to create something great as well but different and with distinction it is just magic
Dude, I hope you find some meaning in life, beyond commenting on a random strangers 7-Month past post ... on a video you proport not to like. All the best :)
that guitar solo is absolutely amazing that no words can describe, that guy put everything he has into that moment, truly amazing I wish it would be a little longer.
@@cbehen he indeed put everything in this solo! One of the best if not THE best guitar solos I ever heard in music history! Nightwish will forever be my favorite band!
i hate when People cover Pink Floyd ; this one is just awesome , its metal and psychadelic and does feel the melancholy like of the original High Hopes !
smae with a forrest from cure by aeon winds.. or lady in black by ensiferum or smalltownboy by paradise lost.. i think this only works with metal covers (or a genre that is diffrent tot the original) .. because it s something diffrent..
Same. There are some songs where if you touch them you better be different of better. NW really killed it in the good way. I love Marco's take on the vocals.
After reading the news, i'm absolutely heartbroken. I was too young back when Tarja left, and out of the loop when anette did too, but now that i'm back to adoring nightwish, as it was part of my childhood and it will forever have a special place in my heart, i can't help but believe this is the same way fans felt knowing about Tarja leaving. I remain convinced that mental health should always be a priority, and that's why i will love this band no matter what happens, taking into account that the people that are part of it are really talented guys and they kick ass just as much as they did back in the beginning. I don't have enough words to explain just how many feelings i am going through, and i can only hope that Marko's resignation doesn't mean Nightwish's decay. Damn, i got emotional, i really wish Marko the best, i and wish for him to feel better eventually, someday, somehow, because there are lots of people who love him, and we'll be waiting
Man, Marco is one Hell of a vocalist! Whether as a soloist or as the male vocal counterpart to the female singer on Nightwish , he never fails to deliver. The whole band is just an incredible collection of talent. It is shocking how few have ever heard of them.
@@jandavison7288 you can Google Nightwish he is on much of their videos . Also try Northern Kings . Also Marko' s own channel . And his sons have a band called Tarot . Enjoy.
I am 63...I have seen Pink Floyd in concert several times, seen them perform this song..... I have to say that this is my favorite version of this classic.... I am so heartbroken that Marko has chosen to leave this stellar band.... he will be impossible to replace....
Suffering total burnout is terrible! I pray he finds his passion in singing for us again, one day! A wonderful, deep soul...this man tells a story whenever he sings, without the need for fancy theatrics or crazy moves.💖
The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever .
OMG tHis power brings me to tears. God I pray to you to heal Marko with your tender touch. The rest of us on this planet desire his touch. Please GOD Please heal his mind body and soul and return him to us. Nightwish will never be the same otherwise....
Great band they are one of the best I’ve heard and I’m a maiden fan Love all music when it makes a connection to my soul. God bless them all for there great gifts. 🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️👍
How beautiful!! Each time I listen to this, I am transfixed. Lost. Truly a stunning masterpiece sung by this phenomenal artist! A heartfelt thank you, Marco! You are truly missed. Still.😔❤
I LOVE Pink Floyd and get very defensive about the multitudes of crappy covers out there and tributes that don't hold a candle. With that said, this is one of the best covers, of anything, ever, and this live performance is truly stunning. Does the original credit in style, nothing less than what I'd expect from Nightwish.
@@coco_bold Can't not agree more. Another example is Black Sabbath's Planet Caravan. Although many people say Pantera version is good, I still think it just destroys the soul of original song.
@@TheMrtop10 maybe hook up with Coco in a dark room with cobwebs. I have been into Pink Floyd since 1969 and don't think many days have gone by without spinning a track or two, I feel this is def not a blatant cover more a very skillfully crafted tribute full of soul that is obviously done out of respect for the song and love of it, I prefer to listen to this for that plus that reason and love this solo more btw. Other bands try hard to clone but with Pink Floyd it's pointless so for me this is refreshing twist and worthy addition to my playlist
There's no doubt that Nightwish is one of the best band on earth. Simply most amazing cover ever anybody did i think. PinkFloyd must be proud of you guys 🤜🤛, we all are.
WHAT a cover! - One of the best ever..... Sorry to see Nightwish today 😞 Jukka was one of the absolute best drummers ever, but Kai Hahto is really great too 🙂 HOWEVER - Marko can not be replaced - they are not the same without him 😞 Hope that he will return.....
no se si la mejor, pero una de las mejores seguro!.. estaria en un TOP y eso ya es mucho decir :) Nightwish es demasiado grande por su actuacion en vivo, las bandas con esa calidad en vivo se cuentan con los dedos de las manos.
This song just gets better and better every time i listen to it. Everything about this cover is a masterpiece. Thanks for countless hours of entertainment!
The fact that they have managed to produce an even greater result to such a masterpiece shows that they are a band equal to those with which we the older ones grew up... By far the best band in the world since their appearance....
Marco Hietalala is Marco Hietala, he sings the song in his own way, and does not try to be David Gilmour. Cover is hell good, probably one of the best!
Pink Floyd transcends boundaries, religion, and really everything. The fact that Nightwish knows Pink Floyd and likes them enough to do a cover speaks for itself. This was amazing.
People are always confusing what musicians show in songs or on stage with their real skill.. Just because the style of a band isn't focused on high skill solos, that doesn't mean they aren't awesome players. Often quite the opposite, I would say.
I appreciate Marko Heitala... really a great voice 👍 a great singer..but anyway thanx to other guys too.. Euppu makes an excellent job 👍 and Jukka anyway the best.. Marko's soul explain here is incredible amazing personality. A fantastic timbre a Viking!!!
I cannot imagine how this felt seeing live and lucky the concert goers were. I would pay big money to see Marko, Tuomas, Jukka and Emppu perform this again
Really nice hommage to the great Pink Floyd ship, sailing on the streams of musical ocean since 60'.... influencing so many styles and so many hearts! Great and majestuous!
Markos Resignation: "I haven’t been able to feel validated by this life". IMHO Marko is the best and most inspiration male vocalist the earth has seen, such a pity his reocgnition isnt seen and he doesnt feel validated, all my love to Marko!
jesus man please come back we miss you.this is one of my favourite songs of all time and I know its a cover. but summer is coming and hopefully so are you! no pressure^^
Ich höre dieses Meisterwerk täglich, das Beste was ich je gehört habe. Marco ist ein Meister. Es gibt keine bessere Stimme. Wahnsinn. Es ist wirklich ein Wunderwerk, so schön ist es. Aber auch alle anderen sind einfach unübertrefflich gut.
Nightwish is a great group with great music, which can both calm me down and add more strength to life. I thank its protagonists for great music and all the best.♥
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In a world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the division bell had begun Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway Do they still meet there by the Cut There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay The grass was greener The light was brighter With friends surrounded The nights of wonder Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever
Marko is such an underrated vocalist, simply because he's a back up vocalist in a female fronted band with world class singers.
But when he gets the stage, he delivers.

Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Do they still meet there by the Cut
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever
