The life and blood bound to it Fills the veins with song, with song. My father's voice. I sing with it as well. My father's voice. Sing my son, you too. My father's voice. From the fathers ancient. My father's voice. I will remember it. My father's voice. I sing with it as well. My father's voice. Sing my son, you too. My father's voice. From the fathers ancient. My father's voice.

Thanks. Great lyrics and very straightforward which is rare nowadays. Unfortunately people nowadays prefer cryptic lyrics (or just do not try hard enough to make it straightforward)
Ohne Marco ist Nightwish (sorry Tuomas) einfach nicht vollständig. Diese Lücke ist einfach nicht zu füllen. Ein großer Verlust. Marco ist so einzigartig. ❤
I'm just sorry his talent isn't recognized more internationally, because this is one very talented guy, just look how many projects he had worked on and all of them are special in their own way
@@sudanemamimikiki1527 Not fair. Symphonic metal isnt as popular and as fresh and a bit hit as it was 20+ years ago. Not to mention, since Floor and all the good press Nightwish has gotten, they are more popular than they have been in a while.
To be recognized intentionally you have to sing about sex, drugs and hoes. Actually you don't need to really sing. Just do good lip syncing. Sad but true.
I am from Belgium and I know him very well. With his lang hair and beard it is hard to not notice him when you listen to songs of Nightwish. They were one of my favorite bands when I was a in my twenties.
When I heard this in English, I thought it was beautiful and moving. Hearing it in Finnish, it brought me to tears. What a beautiful, beautiful language Finnish is. It has a,ways fascinated me, both because of its lilting tones, and because I understand that JRR Tolkien, a master linguist, based the language of the elves upon it and ancient Celtic. Being of Celtic descent, the musicality of the Finnish speaks to my heart and soul. I would love to be able to speak it, but I u derstand it is one of the world’s must difficult to learn......and I’m old. But it does make my heart sing to hear it.
Tolkien was an old Norse professor also. Jackson Crawford, who is also an Old Norse prof., has the one ring "speech" from LOTR's. Look for it it's pretty cool!!
Für mich ist Marco der schönste, beste und talentiertester Musiker überhaupt. Einfach göttlich alles von ihm und mit ihm. Ich wünsche ihm alles Glück 🍀 und Gesundheit. Danke, dass es dich gibt.
Can't stop listening to this beautiful song. And though the words and pronunciation are beyond me😅, I do love this version much more than the English version. It does have way more power in this language. Goosebumps every single time.❤❤❤
What a great gem of a song Marko left us before leaving his public life behind. For more than 15 years he's been one of my favorite musicians of all time and a true inspiration. Thank you for everything Marko. Have a happy long life !

Ja. Immer noch etwas traurig, dass er Nighwish verlassen hat, aber er wird es am besten wissen. Wer wären wir ihn zu verurteilen. Wir stecken nicht in seiner Haut. Er hinterlässt zwar ein Loch, aber NW kommen ganz gut klar. Sie haben ja jetzt Troy. Ich finde die finishe Version ein vielfaches besser als die Englische. Finisch ist schon eine faszinierende Sprache. Isäni ääni (Isä=vater, ni=mein, ääni=Klang/Stimme). Ich kann absolut kein Finisch, aber zum Glück gibt es google translate, deepl und co.
This song is from album called "Mustan sydämen rovio" which is a double release with "Pyre of the Black Heart". Marko performed every song in both languages. And he also wrote all the songs, some originally in English, some originally in Finnish, so both albums have both original and translated songs. And as a native Finn that also knows English pretty well, the translations that Marko did are very good so you can just see the lyrics for the variant of the song you want to understand. For this song, you could just read the lyrics of The Voice of my Father and you wouldn't lose anything about the content of the song. The translations have minor intentional inaccuracies to allow using a word that sounds better in the song but the overall idea and message of every song is clearly the same both in Finnish and English.
For some reason, this is the first thing I thought of when hearing the bad news from earlier today. I was gonna see him live for the first time this year with Nightwish, then Covid hit. Him leaving Nightwish really impacts me emotionally for some reason. @Marko (just in case you ever read this), thank you so much for all the amazing music and character you have gifted the world. Hope you'll find your good health and path for the future, your walden, soon.
happened to me as well, havent seen them yet live, been listening since i was 16 , now im 31 , and this 2021 i was like time to listen to nightwish again since almost 2 years i zoned out... 6 days in and i get a youtube suggestion....marko leaves, it definetely hit diffrently
I get what you mean. I was lucky to see them live two times already but I started listening to them when I was 5 years old and I am 21 now. Him leaving was a shock for me eventho I completely understand and respect it. His voice has been part of my childhood and life until now.

@@00utofcpt the way I found nightwish was really odd. I won highest hopes at a lottery for kids were you got a number and wait for your price. We thought that because, of the name nightwish and the fact that I won it in a game for kids, the music would be for children. When my mom turned the music on while I was in the bath tub and the first song was wish I had an angel, we quickly realized it definitely wasn't sleeping music for children. But I loved it as soon as it started. But I guess that's what you get when your mother listens to metallica while pregnant with twins 😂
This is very emotional song. Marcos father was a teacher and very musical person, which gave a lot of inspiration to Marco and his brother. After divorce his life went down and he started using alcohol and died later to liver failure. Marco will carry his fathers voice ahead!
Umm, I don't think all your details are accurate; Marko doesn't mention his parents' divorce, and his Dad died due to heart attack after a few final years of living addiction-free. ("Stainless", page 159)
Як чудово чути, коли люди співають на рідній мові!!! Це звучить набагато чуттєвіше, по- справжньому!!! Спасибі Марко за те,що він є ,і що він робить ❤️🇺🇦
Mr. Hietala, pakko sanoa, ajoitus oli loistava tällä kappaleella, ehdin omalle isälleni soittamaan kyllästymiseen asti, mutta taisi ymmärtää tuon sanoman kuitenkin. Eli, kiitos, loistava veto, ja vanhat Tarotitkin on kuunneltu.
No matter what language do you speak a true musician and singer can transmitted many emotions with the interpretation and great talent. Marko you are that kind 🎤🎶💕
💔 💔 💔 You are so very much loved, and will be greatly missed. Millions of people love and care about you. I hope you know that you are an outstanding individual, a musician that is extraordinary and original in every way. I am going to miss you so much. Take care of yourself Marko, that is number one. . There's no one out there like you nor ever could be.. 💔 💔 💔

My dad just passed away, and I relate to this song. My fathers voice, his legasy, his personality, lives in me. In all his defects, faults and goods, I carry him inside and I realise i'm so much alike. I miss him. He said in his dying days, "boys, do well, It's time for me to go".
Thank you sir I haven’t here Finnish sung for a long to me after grandpa Lauri died, the Finnish talk and singing died with him, thank you for the gift byva
Ricardo, I have to disagree. If the song is written around a specific language, it will sound better in that language. If you were to write this same song in Portuguese with the same meanings to each of the sentences (but NOT a direct translation of the song), it would come out sounding different because it would be in Portuguese. It's just a matter of cadence. I do not speak or understand Portuguese either, but would still listen to it because it's a WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL song! Metal can be written in any language, you just have to work at it. :)
Finnish language is so beautiful. I'm lucky since my mother tounge is Hungarian which is also in the Finno-Ugric language group. Together with the Estonians we are the unique trio of Europe! :D 🇫🇮 🇪🇪 🇭🇺
Dammit, *every* time I hear Marco going from "soft and quiet" to "full metal bellow", I get goosebumps! 😯 For me, he has been _one of the_ Most *Metal* voices in the world for over 30 years. 😎 Truly a legend! 🤘
I just found this. What amazing talent, what an amazing voice! And I love, love the sound of Finnish. It still hurts that he left Nightwish- I only wish him the best in finding the healing he needs. That we all need for that matter- we all want you to thrive and find happiness in this life, Marko!
Lucia Hladicseková : I love it it’s a nice break from all that noise making thunderous high powered symphonic metal whatever they call that stuff that they play nowadays similar to Nightwish, I like Nightwish but the change back to some traditional good solid rock with a different element to it is what I like about this , too much of the same repetitive music going on nowadays uniqueness is valuable to me👍
I got emotional listening to this song, and even though I can’t understand a word of finnish, it made me cry. This music really got to me, such a beautiful and powerful melody. So I searched for the lyrics and it’s in fact a really emotional and powerful song, beautifully written. Today I was sad and missing my father, and this song brought up all sorts of feelings, from sadness to love and joy. So very beautiful! Marco is a gift to the world 🖤
Nee Edge, my condolences. I also lost my Dad. We are in the same boat. Just know that your father is still watching over you. Please have a better day.
Friends, when you have the time to sot in peace and immerse yourselves in all the feelings, give a listen to a nightwish song too, called "our decades in the sun", has the same vibes as this, amazingly touching. Trust me...
Tää on upea ja koskettava! Yleensä en tykkää suomeksi lauletuista lauluista etenkään raskaammassa musiikissa, tämä on ensimmäinen laatuaan kun suomenkielinen versio on parempi, koskettavampi ja uppoaa syvälle, vaikka kuulin englanninkielisen ensin. 🔥❤️👊
I feel your sadness. Find the strength to fight and defeat the demons which are torturing your mind. They will win some battles but YOU will win the war. Our strength is measured by our struggles. Heal your mind with peace, joy and nature. We will wait for your return.
Äänes tunnen ja kuulen, se kaikuu äärettömään. Menit rikki, mut muistan pidempään. Viakka murtuu miehen mahti, tomu täyttää astian. Tänäkin yönä tiedän lepoon sinun mut laulavan. Isäni ääni. Sillä laulan minäkin. Isäni ääni. Laula poikani sinäkin. Isäni ääni. Isiltä muinaisten. Isäni ääni. Minä muistan sen. Ja tiedän vaikka portit taivaan eessäs pantaisi kii, sut mieheks oikeuden täällä tunnettiin. Mun puolesta voit murtaa ovet nuo huvikses vain. Eihän hyvyyttäs voi kahlita kirjaimella lain. Isäni ääni. Sillä laulan minäkin. Isäni ääni. Laula poikani sinäkin. Isäni ääni. Isiltä muinaisten. Isäni ääni. Minä muistan sen. Vaikka väittivät lihaamme maaksi. Se on tuhkaa tähtien, iät vain palaen. Siihen sidottu elo ja veri Suonet täyttää laulaen, laulaen. Isäni ääni. Sillä laulan minäkin. Isäni ääni. Laula poikani sinäkin. Isäni ääni. Isiltä muinaisten. Isäni ääni. Minä muistan sen.

You got broken, but I’ll remember longer. Problems break a man’s power, the dust fills the vessel. Even tonight, I know you’ll sing me a song. My father’s voice. For I sing too. My father’s voice. Sing my son. My father’s voice. From my ancestors. My father’s voice. I remember. And I know, even if the gates of heaven would close, man was right here.

I've heard that this is one of the most difficult languages to learn. But I also heard that it's spoken as it's written, and except for some letters, like the "R" that seem to soung strong, really strong, this is true, I can follow the lyrics perectly well, even learn how to sing it, although I don't know what I's saying. Thanks for the lyrics in it's original language, it makes the song even more interesting and cool.
After hearing of your departure from Nightwish, I wish I had found you years ago. And on the other hand I am pleasantly surprised but I also feel where you are coming from. After 20 years on my current profession I am becoming disenchanted and will hopefully be able to make a jump to the next chapter in my life. Much respect. Hope to hear you and of you in the future.
So much soul and emotion in this song. The whole album is incredible. Too bad that it's sold out... I should have ordered it when it came out. Hopefully, they make more copies! 🙏🏻
Guess I'm late to.comment...but just stumbled onto this upload... Such a hauntingly beautiful song instrumentality, and I like it much more sung in Finnish!
@Slimy von Perkele G49 That's so sweet of you to say! I speak several Native American languages and Finnish sounds similar to my ear...I find it quite beautiful!
@Slimy von Perkele G49 You may...I speak Athapascan which is Navajo. Pikuni Blackfeet, and Lakota, Souix (I have Lakota blood). All of these languages are heavy on vowel sounds, and have a certain song-like flow as well as hard stops...which, like I said, sound structurally similar to Finnish. Not the same, and I don't speak Finnish...but to me, it's a beautiful language!
@Slimy von Perkele G49Yeh'ta'hehy is a greeting in Athapascan, or Navajo. I spelled it wrong so you could read it like it sounds. Lots of vowels strings! I am proud, thank! Every summer there are gatherings of all tribes called pow wows...I've been to hundreds, there's dancing in full tradition regalia (never say costumes) and drum circles with singing and vendors and food...I met friends of all nations and as I spent time w them, I picked up their languages...it was easy when I was young. I'd love to learn Finnish but don't have any local friends who speak it.
I don't understand a word but I love it. ❤️ I started listening to nightwish since I was 5 and I always thought that Marco had a special voice. Hearing this song not with nightwish but pure his music shows me that I was right. He is very special.
Each of your songs is filled with a real Feeling, the feeling that erases all obstacles and makes you live again, believe in the best again, in the power of the human Spirit and Courage.
Услышала один раз,и теперь меня эта песня не отпускает.Вот умеют финны зацепить,да так,что всю душу перевернёт.Всегда восхищалась этой страной,этими людьми, которые берегут свою природу.Вроде холодные и суровые,но в то же время такие романтичные и чувственные,и с таким богатым внутренним миром.Музыка очень качественная.А кто был на концертах финских групп тот согласится - какая от них бешенная и классная энергетика идет,какой заряд эмоций,это что-то невероятное!!
Finnish language is fascinating and cool, it sounds very well musically. My passion for finnish metal made me develop love for the nation too. I will visit this beautiful country and its nice people soon. Love to Suomi from Italy.
@@pyssy123 thank you. To visit your country is a wish that I have from years, I really love your relation with nature and the wonderful landscapes and skyes! Greetings!
Marco told in an interview that the highlight of the day in his childhood was when his father sang him to sleep (on this night i know you still sing me to sleep) Both Marco and his father played guitar and had serious problems with achohol. This is what this song is about.
The old language and Style and your perfect voice pronunce to make magnetism REAL to TRUE Kingdon Nórdic in other Sea and Sky! Not a dream...love this ! Wonderfull ❤️ Song Past/ present and future generation because the legacy of bloody is talent musician and Supreme Art.
One of the most powerful and beautiful voices in not just Metal and rock, but in music PERIOD. The video is beautifully shot and edited, the music is sweeping and glorious. Marco's voice has always been amazing, but it's nice to hear him sing something a little softer than Nightwish and Tarot for a change.
I'm in love with this song. Kiitos tästä laulusta. Se on suuri kunnianosoitus isillemme-ja niille, jotka tekevät kaikkensa-tehdäkseen meistä parhaan ihmisen.
The power of sound and music, No idea what he is singing Just the whole emotion and feeling of the song comes through, and the emotion that comes through and hit right deep down in the soul. Beautiful

Although they claimed our flesh is earth.
It's the ashes of stars, burning through the ages.
The life and blood bound to it
Fills the veins with song, with song.

Mr. Hietala, pakko sanoa, ajoitus oli loistava tällä kappaleella, ehdin omalle isälleni soittamaan kyllästymiseen asti, mutta taisi ymmärtää tuon sanoman kuitenkin. Eli, kiitos, loistava veto, ja vanhat Tarotitkin on kuunneltu.
I am impressed after listening to marko sing the phantom of the opera awesome
Mina etsin suomalaista biisia ja se oli niin lahella! Kaunis kieli, kaunis laulu, koko Nightwish, kaikki muusikko on kaunis ❤❤ kippis!!
No matter what language do you speak a true musician and singer can transmitted many emotions with the interpretation and great talent. Marko you are that kind 🎤🎶💕
💔 💔 💔 You are so very much loved, and will be greatly missed. Millions of people love and care about you. I hope you know that you are an outstanding individual, a musician that is extraordinary and original in every way. I am going to miss you so much. Take care of yourself Marko, that is number one. . There's no one out there like you nor ever could be.. 💔 💔 💔
Äänes tunnen ja kuulen, se kaikuu äärettömään
Menit rikki, mut muistan pidempään
Vaikka murtuu miehen mahti, tomu täyttää astian
Tänäkin yönä tiedän lepoon sinun mut laulavan
Isäni ääni
Sillä laulan minäkin
Isäni ääni
Laula poikani sinäkin
Isäni ääni
Isiltä muinaisten
Isäni ääni
Minä muistan sen
Ja tiedän vaikka portit taivaan eessäs pantais kii
Sut mieheks oikeuden täällä tunnettiin
Mun puolesta voit murtaa ovet nuo huvikses vain
Eihän hyvyyttäs voi kahlita kirjaimella lain
Isäni ääni
Sillä laulan minäkin
Isäni ääni
Laula poikani sinäkin
Isäni ääni
Isiltä muinaisten
Isäni ääni
Minä muistan sen
Vaikka väittivät lihaamme maaksi
Se on tuhkaa tähtien, iäti vain palaen
Siihen sidottu elo ja veri
Suonet täyttää laulaen, laulaen
Isäni ääni
Sillä laulan minäkin
Isäni ääni
Laula poikani sinäkin
Isäni ääni
Isiltä muinaisten
Isäni ääni
Minä muistan sen
Sillä laulan minäkin
Isäni ääni
Laula poikani sinäkin
Isäni ääni
Isiltä muinaisten
Isäni ääni
Minä muistan sen
Most beautiful song I've ever heard. Makes you cry instantly. Thank you Marko!
My dad just passed away, and I relate to this song. My fathers voice, his legasy, his personality, lives in me. In all his defects, faults and goods, I carry him inside and I realise i'm so much alike. I miss him. He said in his dying days, "boys, do well, It's time for me to go".
My dear friend, now your father can be with you always. He is everywhere now. He's not gone.
💙🙏💙
Beautiful! Sounds great. What a Voice. Thank you Marco Hietala for playing for NW. Thank You Sir. Who wants to learn finnish now ?
Thank you sir I haven’t here Finnish sung for a long to me after grandpa Lauri died, the Finnish talk and singing died with him, thank you for the gift byva
Essa bela canção me transporta no tempo, para uma vida passada celta.... Muito linda.❤
This song and the whole album is absolutely perfect. Finnish is perfect for this. There is no need to release the album in English.
standamz666 standa76 there’s an album? Where? Cause I can’t find anything other than this song
Voice of my father❤
Finnish sounds so good for metal! Other languages can’t do the same. Cheers from Brazil!
well actually all nordic languages can do the same ^^
German is a great metal language as well
Muitas bandas nórdicas são maravilhosas, assim como os idiomas que os representam
try turkish bands.
Ricardo, I have to disagree. If the song is written around a specific language, it will sound better in that language. If you were to write this same song in Portuguese with the same meanings to each of the sentences (but NOT a direct translation of the song), it would come out sounding different because it would be in Portuguese. It's just a matter of cadence. I do not speak or understand Portuguese either, but would still listen to it because it's a WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL song! Metal can be written in any language, you just have to work at it. :)
Finnish language is so beautiful. I'm lucky since my mother tounge is Hungarian which is also in the Finno-Ugric language group. Together with the Estonians we are the unique trio of Europe! :D 🇫🇮 🇪🇪 🇭🇺
Don't forget Sami people!
@@alexeirahamov5650 Of course!
Один из самых прекрасных голосов. Услада для ушей.❤
Dammit, *every* time I hear Marco going from "soft and quiet" to "full metal bellow", I get goosebumps! 😯 For me, he has been _one of the_ Most *Metal* voices in the world for over 30 years. 😎 Truly a legend! 🤘
Marko, even in Canada, your voice resounds. It is my dying wish to hear you perform live in Ontario. May the metal be ever strong with you.
I just found this. What amazing talent, what an amazing voice! And I love, love the sound of Finnish. It still hurts that he left Nightwish- I only wish him the best in finding the healing he needs. That we all need for that matter- we all want you to thrive and find happiness in this life, Marko!
Wow...just found this...awesome Marko song and quite personal too.
Superbe chanson, superbe voix... J'adore ❤️
I though I was the only one who loved Finnish, it sounds beautiful!! I love it, and German too!! ❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️you are the best Marco...
Finnish language is so fascinating ! Love it, very emotional song. Greetings from Slovakia. :)
felling the same... Greetings from Slovak living in Ireland :D
greetings from slovak in uk
Why is there so many Slovaks here :D
@@xooperz ... We go where the good thing are :)
Lucia Hladicseková : I love it it’s a nice break from all that noise making thunderous high powered symphonic metal whatever they call that stuff that they play nowadays similar to Nightwish, I like Nightwish but the change back to some traditional good solid rock with a different element to it is what I like about this , too much of the same repetitive music going on nowadays uniqueness is valuable to me👍
Bravo MARKO... Tu as une super voix, sans Tarja et autre, tu n'as pas vraiment besoin...
I got emotional listening to this song, and even though I can’t understand a word of finnish, it made me cry.
This music really got to me, such a beautiful and powerful melody.
So I searched for the lyrics and it’s in fact a really emotional and powerful song, beautifully written.
Today I was sad and missing my father, and this song brought up all sorts of feelings, from sadness to love and joy.
So very beautiful! Marco is a gift to the world 🖤
It's about his father
Nee Edge, my condolences. I also lost my Dad. We are in the same boat. Just know that your father is still watching over you. Please have a better day.
@Elicuu Kit thnx
Friends, when you have the time to sot in peace and immerse yourselves in all the feelings, give a listen to a nightwish song too, called "our decades in the sun", has the same vibes as this, amazingly touching. Trust me...
Beautiful Marko 🙌 I’ll alway be a fan. Respect and love from Ireland 🇮🇪 xx
A great musician, a brilliant singer, a brilliant bass player.
Greetings from Poland
Great music! Thank you!❤
Very interesting Guitar parts played. His Voice is absolute beautiful, ghosbumbs every time. Keep up and greetings from Swizerland!!
I Always loved His Voice.i still have a Christmas song he did.Good Lord Marco.SO VRY Happy for You.kat,CT u.s.
1M views! It was about time. Should have many more.
Tää on upea ja koskettava! Yleensä en tykkää suomeksi lauletuista lauluista etenkään raskaammassa musiikissa, tämä on ensimmäinen laatuaan kun suomenkielinen versio on parempi, koskettavampi ja uppoaa syvälle, vaikka kuulin englanninkielisen ensin. 🔥❤️👊
I feel your sadness. Find the strength to fight and defeat the demons which are torturing your mind. They will win some battles but YOU will win the war. Our strength is measured by our struggles. Heal your mind with peace, joy and nature. We will wait for your return.
This song only gets better when you realize that Marko is part of Nightwish. Truly the best Finnish song in the world!
Rakastan sinun ääniä💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 Rakastan sinua Marko my LOVE❤❤
Любов от България 🇧🇬,велика и много обичана банда сте тук ❤️❤️❤️
This is for my father. He died one year ago. Kiitos paljon herra Marco. Greetings from Romaia.
Get well soon Marco. It was a great pleasure to have met you. I never got to tell you how great your voice is. I'll anticipate 2022 eagerly. 🤟🏼✌🏼🖤

Translation
I feel and hear your voice, it echoes to infinity.
You got broken, but I’ll remember longer.
Problems break a man’s power, the dust fills the vessel.
Even tonight, I know you’ll sing me a song.
My father’s voice. For I sing too.
My father’s voice. Sing my son.
My father’s voice. From my ancestors.
My father’s voice. I remember.
And I know, even if the gates of heaven would close,
man was right here.
On my behalf, you can break down those gates just for fun.
Goodness can’t be chained by the law.
My father’s voice. For I sing too.
My father’s voice. Sing my son.
My father’s voice. From my ancestors.
My father’s voice. I remember.
Even though they claimed our meat was earth.
It’s the ashes of the stars, forever burning.
Bound to life and blood.
You fill your veins with singing.
My father’s voice. For I sing too.
My father’s voice. Sing my son.
My father’s voice. From my ancestors.
My father’s voice. I remember.
For I sing too.
My father’s voice. Sing my son.
My father’s voice. From my ancestors.
My father’s voice. I remember.

"Se on tuhkaa tähtien, iät vain palaen.
" Se on iäti palaen
I've heard that this is one of the most difficult languages to learn. But I also heard that it's spoken as it's written, and except for some letters, like the "R" that seem to soung strong, really strong, this is true, I can follow the lyrics perectly well, even learn how to sing it, although I don't know what I's saying. Thanks for the lyrics in it's original language, it makes the song even more interesting and cool.
Ahora al español buena onda
Me amigo, entendi nada da letra em Finnish, but still very good to listen)
Kiitos ! Terveiset Ranskaksi ! !
After hearing of your departure from Nightwish, I wish I had found you years ago. And on the other hand I am pleasantly surprised but I also feel where you are coming from. After 20 years on my current profession I am becoming disenchanted and will hopefully be able to make a jump to the next chapter in my life. Much respect. Hope to hear you and of you in the future.
Tyylikästä ja puhuttelevaa. Tässä on sitä substanssia mitä suomalaiselta musiikilta kaipaan anno domini 2019.
So much soul and emotion in this song. The whole album is incredible. Too bad that it's sold out... I should have ordered it when it came out. Hopefully, they make more copies! 🙏🏻
After all these years, all this time, we're finally finally finally getting the Marco Hietala solo album we totally always wanted!
Guess I'm late to.comment...but just stumbled onto this upload...
Such a hauntingly beautiful song instrumentality, and I like it much more sung in Finnish!
@Slimy von Perkele G49 That's so sweet of you to say! I speak several Native American languages and Finnish sounds similar to my ear...I find it quite beautiful!
@Slimy von Perkele G49 You may...I speak Athapascan which is Navajo. Pikuni Blackfeet, and Lakota, Souix (I have Lakota blood). All of these languages are heavy on vowel sounds, and have a certain song-like flow as well as hard stops...which, like I said, sound structurally similar to Finnish. Not the same, and I don't speak Finnish...but to me, it's a beautiful language!
@Slimy von Perkele G49Yeh'ta'hehy is a greeting in Athapascan, or Navajo. I spelled it wrong so you could read it like it sounds. Lots of vowels strings! I am proud, thank! Every summer there are gatherings of all tribes called pow wows...I've been to hundreds, there's dancing in full tradition regalia (never say costumes) and drum circles with singing and vendors and food...I met friends of all nations and as I spent time w them, I picked up their languages...it was easy when I was young. I'd love to learn Finnish but don't have any local friends who speak it.
Wow maravilloso, hermoso tema gran talento de marko hietala saludos desde México.
No clue about the Finnish language.......but this was a blessing to listen to! What a talent!!!!
I don't understand a word but I love it. ❤️ I started listening to nightwish since I was 5 and I always thought that Marco had a special voice. Hearing this song not with nightwish but pure his music shows me that I was right. He is very special.
Try his own band Tarot
I was just going to suggest Tarot also. I wish he'd do more solo stuff. Is this a one off, or he making a solo album or anything?
@@Ashaliel solo album today
@@TheSkilfingar Ill be damned. I have no idea how that flew under my radar, but I'm def gonna check it out. Thanks!
@@Ashaliel I also discovered this single by accident via TH-cam recommendations and found out about him releasing a solo album later.
I love Finnish and Finnish music.I have been learning Finnish for a year.. Something magical and like beautiful poetry ❤️
What a beautiful language, a huge artist and lovely music!
Germany love your music.
Wonderfull song
Marko kiitos.
Each of your songs is filled with a real Feeling, the feeling that erases all obstacles and makes you live again, believe in the best again, in the power of the human Spirit and Courage.
thank you for blessing us with your godly voice 😭😭💜
Don't understand a word and I don't care. He's my favorite male vocalist!
Eu amo esse cara, timbre maravilhoso e uma técnica apurada ao cantar, toca muito, produz bem pra caramba...ele é o cara, grande Hietala!!!!
Monster of Metal! Long live Marco, cheers from Penedo-RJ, the brazilian finland!
Kiitos Marko. Saatoin isäni viimeiselle matkalleen eilen ❤
So enjoyable to her Marko sing anything. Even when I don`t understand the words.
Marko hietala on mahtava!
Oh damn! This is great!
I love Marko’s voice so much!
What a personality!
Marco is a great excellent musician!!!!
Услышала один раз,и теперь меня эта песня не отпускает.Вот умеют финны зацепить,да так,что всю душу перевернёт.Всегда восхищалась этой страной,этими людьми, которые берегут свою природу.Вроде холодные и суровые,но в то же время такие романтичные и чувственные,и с таким богатым внутренним миром.Музыка очень качественная.А кто был на концертах финских групп тот согласится - какая от них бешенная и классная энергетика идет,какой заряд эмоций,это что-то невероятное!!
да,не знаю, уже сколько раз переслушал эту песню. Странно,что наших тут так мало...
His voice is beautiful and powerful in every language.
Väinämoisen parran kautta, miten kaunis kappale!❤
Finnish language is fascinating and cool, it sounds very well musically. My passion for finnish metal made me develop love for the nation too. I will visit this beautiful country and its nice people soon. Love to Suomi from Italy.
Thank's for the kind words. Yuo're very wellcome here.. From Finland with ❤
@@pyssy123 thank you. To visit your country is a wish that I have from years, I really love your relation with nature and the wonderful landscapes and skyes! Greetings!
Wonderful and powerful song.
Tämä on kyllä koskettava ja kaunis kappale❤
И голос не такой хриплый одобрчю
Just... thank you for the BEAUTIFUL song. wow...
Tämä tuli lähelle. Kiitos Marko! Brilliant!
Marco told in an interview that the highlight of the day in his childhood was when his father sang him to sleep (on this night i know you still sing me to sleep) Both Marco and his father played guitar and had serious problems with achohol. This is what this song is about.
Que letra linda Hietala.
The old language and Style and your perfect voice pronunce to make magnetism REAL to TRUE Kingdon Nórdic in other Sea and Sky! Not a dream...love this !
Wonderfull ❤️
Song Past/ present and future generation because the legacy of bloody is talent musician and Supreme Art.
It's amazing listening to Good music in the morning and evening LoL... While having a wonderful day
One of the most powerful and beautiful voices in not just Metal and rock, but in music PERIOD. The video is beautifully shot and edited, the music is sweeping and glorious. Marco's voice has always been amazing, but it's nice to hear him sing something a little softer than Nightwish and Tarot for a change.
Not at the end!
The bridge from 3:16 to 3:46 is ... BEAUTIFUL !
Amazing
I'm in love with this song.
Kiitos tästä laulusta. Se on suuri kunnianosoitus isillemme-ja niille, jotka tekevät kaikkensa-tehdäkseen meistä parhaan ihmisen.
The power of sound and music, No idea what he is singing Just the whole emotion and feeling of the song comes through, and the emotion that comes through and hit right deep down in the soul. Beautiful
