Today we're back with a new to me Nightwish song! It's the first in awhile. 🤨 This one wasn't quite what I was expecting, but still.. so beautiful. 🎵
Don't forget to leave me a request!

THE performance which earned him "I had Floor as my backup singer" T-shirt.
The spoken part roughly translates to "If I play the chorus, you're gonna sing along, right?" - "Yeah!" - "Are you sure?" - "Yeah!" - "Ok, let's do it"
Marko just brought the music, Tuomas did write the lyrics.
There is another spoken part just before this video starts where Marko says that he is just 1 man in front of 20k so he better come up with something. And that the other 'weasels' doubled back and left him. Glad the 'weasels' came back. 🤣.
Next at Tampere is "Elan".
One of my favorite songs of them!!! Love this one and their original.
I’ve seen another Nightwish fan say this so I cannot say this is mine. Marko wears a T-Shirt saying Floor is my backup singer. I thought that was appropriate. So that’s why I’ve said it here ❤️🤘🎸🎻🦘
I comment this pretty much every time I see a reactor hitting this song for the first time... but how cool is it to be Marko? To be one of the few (maybe only?) people on the planet that can state Floor F'ing Jansen was your back-up singer! :)
I’m so with you on the chills factor for Nightwish, especially for any song Marko sings. ❤
You have to love the harmony!
Marko's instrument, lovingly dubbed "The Beast", is a custom combination of a Warwick bass and Framus guitar. As I recall, it weighs upwards of 15 pounds, which is why he almost always plays it balanced on his knee while he puts his foot up on a monitor.
I was waiting for you to get to this. One of my favorites and THIS is the definitive version.
We all know that Floor`s singing always wonderful , Marko to me has the best male voice that I have ever heard also. I miss him but I think Troy is picking up the slack rather well.
Troy was of course a lead vocalist in several other bands previous to Nightwish.
Hello Nikki, welcome to this great Nightwish song with a famous background singer… 🏆‼️👍
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 Great Job Nikki as always
The video from Anette's time is good. Although Anette does sing backup, you don't really hear her. The video is really worth seeing.
Such an underrated Nightwish song. Don't get me wrong there are lots of good ones they've done, but this isn't recommended nearly enough for reactions. I really enjoyed seeing your reaction to this, miss Marco since he left the band, and am still excited to see one last album from them later. They might be done after that one...
Marco a great musician, who else could have Floor as a backup singer.
Marko has some great background singer! You should check out the music video too.
🤩👍💥💯🎼
Performance Fantastico!!!
🤘😎💙🎶
Another nice reaction from you Nikki👍 And yes, there is no better bass player and singer than Marko.
Hopefully he comes back again someday!
I doubt that will happen now.
@@TheRealRedAce He hasn't ruled it out, and since they won't tour again until the second half of 2025/2026, there is a chance, let's hope so.
@@user-cq8sv6pf6p He seems happy where he is now. He may want to spend time with his family rather than going on long tours now.
Nikki, thank you!🤘🎸That guitar is called The Beast.🤘🎸
Not a song from Nightwish that you hear that often, so to me a bit of a ‘hidden gem’ Marco has a great backing singer 😂, lucky fella! Makes me feel sad that Marco is no longer with them but it’s good to know that he is still making music!
You always make a great reaction analysis, that’s what makes the difference between you and a lot of ‘them’!
Great showcase for Marko! Always cool to see reactions to when the rest of the band comes in, though. It's kind of a surprise, and it really lifts the song to an even higher level.
This has to be the best version, but the official music video is great too.
In Finnish double vowels you usually pronounce both separately, so "Hee-ett-aala".
Magical stuff 🤘
👌👌
You can check the official video for this song which is an Annette era song it is good, and I do love her as a vocalist, but this live version is musically better all-around in my opinion the OV does capture the storyline quite well, however. Looking forward to the next one you do!
Agreed, it's a very good atmospheric video. Also worth listening to for the different instrument arrangements. (Not suggesting it's better than this, more paired down semi-acccoustic version. They're both great in their own way.) I also liked Annette's vocals on that track. Not as powerful or forward as Floor's but it worked in its own way. She has a voice well suited to folk music.
So different than other songs of Nightwish, but somehow fits to them very well. Great review and analysis as always Nikki.
Thx Nikki !! Such a beautiful song !! 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
Marko and Floor sound so well together 🥰
Edit : For Marko's last name pronounciation, I'll try to help you, but it hard for a french speaker to guide an english speaker pronounce a finnish name 😀
The "i" followed by the "e" is more pronounced like in... let's say "Daniela" (yes, it's a first name you know, even if we generally say "Dany" ;-) )
And the "a" are also said like in "Daniela"
I hope it helps 🙂
There is a video on YT called "How to pronounce the names of Nightwish (past & present) members in Finnish"
or go to go..le translate (note: if i type it out completely my comment gets deleted!!), choose Finnish language, type in Marko Hietala and click on the listen icon, now type in the name of the venue tampere, next tuomas holopainen, and so on......
@mariogansbeke Haven't seen anything from Emilia in a while ..
Marko has a little bit of a campfire singer in his soul. You called it Nikki. The members of Nightwish love their craft and it is never work for them. He-et-ala. The I is pronounce as an E. Definitely a sleeper song. Love the sea shanty vibe.
🤘🇫🇮😎👍🥀
👍👍😎😎🤘🤘
Everytime I see that double neck guitar my mouth waters. That is one beautiful looking and sounding piece of equipment and Marko knows exactly what to do with it. I always wanted to play, I could play some of the notes but I couldn't make the music. If you wanna hear another Marko gem, listen to the Pink Floyd tribute song "High Hopes" from the End of an Era concert. Ya might want to listen the original High Hopes by Pink Floyd so you know what Tuomas was working with as he and Marko came up with the tribute. There are no words to describe the end result. Marko at his very best.
🥰🥲🥲🥲❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I read somewhere that it must be something to say that you had Floor Jansen as a backup singer.
There is another video same performance, but with some introduction words, basicly its Marko saying,,
the other weasels went of, so your stucked with me, i better come up with something right!!
this is best live performance i belive, the official video is also very cool, one of the best NW official videos..
🤘😊🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯👍
🤘🏻🎸💛🎵
The GOOD artists show emotion. Unfortunately all the bland formula 'pop' that fills the media and radio stations is almost totally lacking it - which makes it worthless IMO. Thank the stars for bands with integrity like Nightwish.
Dark passion play is good album but Anettes work got ignored cos of the arguments about the other 2 singers.
Imagine having Floor Jansen as your backup singer 😊
yep
Too bad that you picked up this shorter version.
Too bad that you had to point it out!
@@DarrellW_UK Well its true .
@@dennisthemenace671 there are more courteous ways of pointing it out!
@@DarrellW_UK With out seeing the longer version the reactor doesn`t understand the impack of when the rest of the band comes in . why didn`t you point it out in a courteous way in your post , there was nothing wrong with the way tapio7133 pointed it out , now the reactor knows theres a longer version .
