I am always near tears when I hear this Song. So beautiful, so philosophical and yet to simple reminding us to live in the Moment..to make this Moments.
lyrics Sweet little words made for silence not talk Young heart for love not heartache Dark hair for catching the wind Not to veil the sight of a cold world Kiss while your lips are still red While he's still silent Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool Drown into eyes while they're still blind Love while the night still hides the withering dawn First day of love never comes back A passionate hour's never a wasted one The violin, the poet's hand Every thawing heart plays your theme with care Kiss while your lips are still red While he's still silent Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool Drown into eyes while they're still blind Love while the night still hides the withering dawn Kiss while your lips are still red While he's still silent Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool Drown into eyes while they're still blind Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
Enjoy your innocence while you still have it, enjoy your ability to feel this deeply before you become inevitably jaded, live while you're still alive to do it. I love this song.
Marko is so missed. he it such a jack of all things music. he can sing aggressively or softly with tenderness. He can be the type of storyteller that sings around a campfire or scares you with his primal metal screams. He is a big part of the metal in Nightwish and he plays both bass and guitar. Just so versatile in so many ways. I personally think Floor will miss Marko on tour. He added a depth and such powerful vocal support to Nightwish songs. Marko also took the lead here and there as well as a solo song, which gave Floor a little breather. don't get me wrong, Floor can handle it alone, but there is something to be said for team support in a 2 hour bombastic metal show on a long tour.
In an interview Floor exactly said this. You can see how much she misses him although she understands why he has left. Watch Floor and Marco singing together Ave Maria 2019: th-cam.com/video/ut6ufu2CPNg/w-d-xo.html. Here you can see how much they love each other (brother and sister).
CHILLLLLS!! , forgot to listen to this for a while. So rich the choice we have with NW, Auri, Floor, Marko there such a universe of creations that origines from them. Thank you for representing this gem to us and for your comments. Happy holidays. Gr. from Holland.
Been waiting for you to do this one. This and The Islander. My heart just melts. Good voice days are the best! I always feel like I can do anything on those days 🤘
If you want snippets of Marco’s range and variety, check out his performances on the Finnish version of Masked Singer. His character was Totoro (the doctor). Everything from Backstreet Boys to Prince. Amazing stuff. And he won the series!
One of best songs with Annette during her time with band she has a pop rock voice so original arrangement was formulated towards that for background also I think meadows of heaven was one of her best songs that really showcased her voice now she sings with “ The Dark Element” I love Tarja, I like Annette, and appreciate Floor.
Ou...and you really need to listen to another side of Marko (as you seem to really love his voice and him:))= Mika Jaakkola feat. Marko Hietala- Soita- official music video. AWESOME!!🤘 Marko ❤! It's in Finnish, but never mind....you feel that song for sure😁
The tragedy behind the scenes on this one is that at the time the concert happened, his own marriage was practically dead. He barely made it to the show due to having performed for Raskasta Joulua the evening before and his flight got delayed and whatnot and already exhausted, he stumbled into a chaos between interviews, way too hasty rehearsal and VIPs and other fans besieging them. But the true chaos was that he himself had invited his girlfriend(who he is now married to) to the show, which cost a lot of uproar as the partners of others in the band/crew basically invited themselves there as a kind of "family trip" to celebrate the fantastic achievement of selling out Wembley Arena - they all wanted to be there. And then there was Marko's wife too, whom he had not expected to see there as they hadn't talked in weeks. And every other woman was bashing Marko how he dared to invite his girlfriend and not his wife, then bashing their own partners claiming that this was just so stereotypical for what was going on on tours and a lot of innocent people got a blow from others who just assumed a lot of things without really caring about what actually lead to Marko's relationship situation. He mentioned himself that for a few moments during the show, when looking over at the separated area where they all stood, that there might still be hope to sort it all out, but eventually, half a year later, he realized that it had indeed been an "empty hope" after all(quote, yes) and filed divorce from a marriage he had been blamed for not being present in. Which is a paradox, because he was bringing in all the money and that was the only reason Manki had agreed to him joining Nightwish in the first place, as they had two babies to feed at that time. Basically a situation, over the years, where he would have been blamed for taking on another job that paid less just as much as he was blamed for the job that paid well but kept him from being at home. Just to mention one aspect of the downwards spiral. And mind that this was 6 years after he'd sobered and still it wasn't enough. (I will not write a full novel here - there is one actually and that is my source - go read that wee book called "Stainless?" if you care) So yeah, long story "short", we, the spectators, only see a splendid performance. We gasp at the perfection, maybe even nitpick here or there. But what we often don't see is, it takes a lot to sing a song like this, in such a way even. But it takes even more to sing a song like this in a situation like this and not break apart. And it takes frickin' stamina and mental blindfolds and routine to sing a song like this, in a situation like this, while being someone who has been dealing with chronic depression all his life, and not stop right there, lay down the bass on the floor and quit it all for good. People have been on and off of the most horrendous theories(despite him asking us not to, but people are people) why he withdrew himself from the public after having been forced to reflect on his life for a year instead of continuing to shut it all in a cabinet in the back of his mind. This evening. This one show. As grand as it was, it was yet another nightmare among the hundreds he had faced in his life. Some he talked about, in his book or elsewhere, but we, us outsiders, will never know all of them and we don't have to. It's just sad, that some people seem to not understand that neither of their personal ideas about his reason was HIS reason. I'm also not saying it was this or that. I'm blindly guessing, based on the information I have, like all of us. And it's enough for me to safely say, any of his reasons is as damn good as the other for him to grant himself the break his life has never really given him. I can already see people moaning in two weeks "It's 2022 - where is he?" without doing research and seeing that he did try to take part at all Raskasta Joulua shows this year, but the universe had other plans(a lot of people in the project got sick before and during the shows - luckily or hopefully just colds and other normal winter issues). He is confirmed as a solo artist for some small summer festivals already. He is still participating in other artists' projects - whether those had been part of the ones he had agreed on beforehand or not, doesn't matter. They were his choice. And so it will be his choice to personally announce all that or leave it to the people in charge who already announced stuff. It is his life and not ours. Social media, or any mean of communication and information, should be about connecting with people and sharing the privilege of knowledge. Not for demanding of others, to please our selfish needs for entertainment as we lost the ability to even want to try entertaining ourselves. In that sense, open your eyes and have a care. When the coffin is closed, when there is no blood left to redden your love ones' lips, it's too late. Thank you for reading this to the end.
Though this is a great version, I prefer the studio version, with the violin and Marko singing the high parts ( I think his vocals were layered on the studio track?)
Another Marco solo. My suggestion is another cover of them, which we hardly see on TH-cam. And if you like a heavy Nightwish sound, this will be a very nice one. Marco is singing solo on this one. Check out their cover of Megadeth, symphony of destruction. The second also hardly on TH-cam, is a heavy Siren, The Siren performed live of course by Floor Jansen Enjoy it, and I with you! 🔥
Do you want to hear different Marco songs or different voices check out the masked singer of Finland he which he won by the way he does everything from the Backstreet boys to Elton John I think I would crawl over broken glass to listen to them sing and if he was doing a one on one guitar romantic song it would be game over for me
There has been a lot of discussion on the internet: who is the best Nightwish singer. Some say Tarja was the best, others say Anette was good but Floor is the best. Nonsense, Marco is the best! Or was..
We rarely get "tender" Marko in NW, though you will hear this Marko in his other projects. A couple of other things: how many lead singers will quietly sit on the drum riser and let the backing vocalist take the stage? Can we also give a shoutout to Troy's stellar EBow work? In the original, this part was played on a violin.
Perhaps the problem is considering Marko a backing singer. Based on what I've seen of Floors admiration of her bandmates, I doubt you would ever see her consider him that.
@@TheSyncos Without question. All we need to see is her applaud Marko at the end of the "Islander" to know that. My comment is really about the lack of selfishness in NW vs. other bands.
@@TheSyncos Well said! NW is not a band formed around a lead vocalist. I remember how Tuomas told how he was thinking "please, say yes!" when Marko was asked to join NW. He had already a long career as a singer.
Hi there ! i realy like your reaction videos, it would be neat to see you react to an old one ( The 1st place winner of the Nuclear Blast / Nightwish fan video contest ) NIGHTWISH - The Crow, The Owl and The Dove (OFFICIAL FAN VIDEO)
Marko is the only person on earth with a shirt that says
"Floor is MY backup singer"
After "Harvest" on the last album, Troy can use one as well.
Thomas and Marco originally wrote this for a Finish movie. One of my favorites that doesn't get reacted to nearly enough.
Tuomas
I love video clip from this movie
Beautiful voice and Troy is a masterful musician.
I am always near tears when I hear this Song. So beautiful, so philosophical and yet to simple reminding us to live in the Moment..to make this Moments.
lyrics
Sweet little words made for silence not talk
Young heart for love not heartache
Dark hair for catching the wind
Not to veil the sight of a cold world
Kiss while your lips are still red
While he's still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
First day of love never comes back
A passionate hour's never a wasted one
The violin, the poet's hand
Every thawing heart plays your theme with care
Kiss while your lips are still red
While he's still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
Kiss while your lips are still red
While he's still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
Thank you!!🤩👍Marko's voice is so beautiful and coming from his soul...❤that's why you love him😊😍🤘🤘
Enjoy your innocence while you still have it, enjoy your ability to feel this deeply before you become inevitably jaded, live while you're still alive to do it.
I love this song.
Finally someone reacted to this masterpiece
Awesome reaction, i love hearing Marko sing even more when Marko and Floor sing together
I hope that the woman who did the backup for Marko one day will do a song for NW. I NOTICED THAT SHE HAS A BEAUTIFUL VOICE!!!!!! LOL
Incredible, I have no words. Marko's voice went straight into my heart ^^
Even as a "backup" singer, Floor still shines. She is magnificent and Marko isn't so bad himself.
A wonderful performance from Nightwish, as always.🤘🎸🎸
The cover High Hopes!!!!!!!!
bittersweet to see and hear him. marko is meanwhile my favourite nightwish singer.
Hell yeah!! Gosh I wish I could sing like Marco!! Awesome reaction and breakdown, Charlie!!
Marko is only the one person ,who can wear a Shirt with."Sometimes Floor Jansen is my Background Singer" 🤘

Great Performance of Marco and the rest - fantastic song!!!!
While Emppu was having a beer 🤘🤘🤘
Been waiting for you to do this one. This and The Islander. My heart just melts.
Good voice days are the best! I always feel like I can do anything on those days 🤘
Another great Marko song is his very last on the HumanllNature album, ‘Endlessness’
Beautiful song❣️
7:03 Well ackshually, the heart is in the middle...!
Northern Kings are doing Finnish Festivals next year myself and Eco are mega excited. I think Marko needs his brothers you know.
This very beautiful little (too short) song is originally made for the Finnish movie "Lieksa!" (Pölönen, 2007, ***). I like it a lot. 😊👍
TAROT HEAVY METAL ON ICE LIVE- GUARDIAN ANGEL AND THINGS THAT CRAWL AT NIGHT IN FINLAND. BY MARKO HIETALA. GREAT VOICE
If you want snippets of Marco’s range and variety, check out his performances on the Finnish version of Masked Singer. His character was Totoro (the doctor). Everything from Backstreet Boys to Prince. Amazing stuff. And he won the series!
It is surreal to see my own nick in the video. lol But it has been ages since i was last able to catch a stream!
BRO YOU MUST DO "STONES" BY MARKO HIETALO !!! Chesty Mc Chesty that song !!!
This is a favorite of mine
So glad you did this one MARCO is amazing.
And who plays a guitar solo with an EBOW TROY DOES
The "Love sound" sounds/feels like a purring V8 in the chest ❤️
One of best songs with Annette during her time with band she has a pop rock voice so original arrangement was formulated towards that for background also I think meadows of heaven was one of her best songs that really showcased her voice now she sings with “ The Dark Element” I love Tarja, I like Annette, and appreciate Floor.
Check out Voice of my father by Marko
Listen to Marko's song "The Voice of my Father."
Ou...and you really need to listen to another side of Marko (as you seem to really love his voice and him:))= Mika Jaakkola feat. Marko Hietala- Soita- official music video. AWESOME!!🤘 Marko ❤! It's in Finnish, but never mind....you feel that song for sure😁

Thank you for reading this to the end.
Hey, you should definitely check out the official music video for this song, awesome thanks 😊
This is a Marko we all miss….🥲
Marco is the Voice of Finland 🇫🇮
I count this was the 8th Marco-voices you heard 🤘
Though this is a great version, I prefer the studio version, with the violin and Marko singing the high parts ( I think his vocals were layered on the studio track?)
My pick of Marko is the "High Hopes" cover. This is more personal but doesn't have the magnificence of the Floyd song with his voice
Another Marco solo.
My suggestion is another cover of them, which we hardly see on TH-cam.
And if you like a heavy Nightwish sound,
this will be a very nice one.
Marco is singing solo on this one.
Check out their cover of Megadeth, symphony of destruction.
The second also hardly on TH-cam, is a heavy Siren, The Siren performed live of course by Floor Jansen
Enjoy it, and I with you! 🔥
Marko Hietala :):):)
@Marko Hietala what Charlie said lol
Agree
Do you want to hear different Marco songs or different voices check out the masked singer of Finland he which he won by the way he does everything from the Backstreet boys to Elton John I think I would crawl over broken glass to listen to them sing and if he was doing a one on one guitar romantic song it would be game over for me
Hope Marko has find his Walden. Come back to us brother Marko. It's not the same without you...
The eight type of Marko: Mika Hietala's Soita! feat. Marko...
MarGO!!!
Try Marko Hietala: the voice of my father (isäni ääni)
And a rare break for Emppu, besides
There has been a lot of discussion on the internet: who is the best Nightwish singer. Some say Tarja was the best, others say Anette was good but Floor is the best. Nonsense, Marco is the best! Or was..
DELAIN FEAT MARKO HIETALA - THE GATHERING: LIVE.

Funfact, there is a medical condition called Dexteocardia and ypur heart is on the right side. So even if it wasnt mirrored it could still be right😂
Hi there ! i realy like your reaction videos, it would be neat to see you react to an old one ( The 1st place winner of the Nuclear Blast / Nightwish fan video contest ) NIGHTWISH - The Crow, The Owl and The Dove (OFFICIAL FAN VIDEO)
I can't say that Marco is as versatile a Floor is........ but, damn, he is versatile.
We are Neo Prog & we don’t care.
High hopes! pink floyd cover 💪💪
Biggest downside of this song is that it is too short... Luckily we have repeat...
