I paid attention to you mentioning how unic and identifiable voice Marko has. The damn dude won "Masked singer Finland". And won because no one recognized his voice, which is crazy 😅Even I did not recognize his voice and I'm embarrased about it. He is so versatile.
something old,something new,something comforting. love tarja and marko. great reaction like beginning long time ago and of course have wonderful weekend.
I just love this song so much! They both sound amazing and just makes my heart so warm and fuzzy. I'm so happy that Marko is releasing new music and that this new song was done with Tarja.
I had read that this song was written for Marko's wife. I personally spent 15 years being depressed, and an alcholic. I like the duet of Marko and Tarja! I hope they put out some more songs together! And something this old long time Led Zepplin fan remembered was a similar intro to more than one song they put out in the late 1960's and 70's. But...hearing this song makes me feel like I was " Left on Mars " for all those years. But....now I am almost 25 years clean and sober...no depression any more!! Nice to hear you are living in the US!!!
I've been following Marco on Facebook. He does come across much more relaxed these days and the stuff he's been doing solo and in colabs have been bangers. Good to hear Tarja too!
Nice reaction, Chase. This song actually gets better each time I listen to it. The nostalgia is sweet. He actually wrote this song for his wife but it’s nice that it probably fits their new friendship as well
Chase, your joy in seeing this transcends the screen, it makes me happy too. Speaking of Marko and if I remember correctly you have never done the reaction to Nightwish's tribute to Pink Floyd's "High Hopes". I would love to see your input on that masterpiece. Cheers!
Glad you did this one, I've been keeping an eye on your channel since it came out! I hope you're adjusting to life in the US and you like it here :-). Great reaction as always!
Thank you for the reaction. As you said, what a ride. Seeing the two of them singing together and smiling at each other is a wonderful feeling. I feel like things are right again. I like Marko's style of music and I also love science fiction. I'm glad it's different than what most people expected from them. I really like his first solo album, as well as what he did in Tarot, although I haven't listened to all their albums yet. He should release a new solo album at the beginning of next year. About the song. Marko said it started as a love song to his wife, but ended up bringing the two friends together. But he also said that the song can be perceived in different ways. But both of them filmed this video in such a way that it suggests that it is also about them, and this is how they perform it at concerts. So the meaning of this song has shifted and expanded a lot since its inception. And lyrically it also fits their history perfectly. Marko also promised Tarja that in exchange for her singing this duet with him, he would join in whatever she asked him to do. They embarked on a long tour of South America last month and have announced a fall tour in Europe.
Thanks Chase! Knew you'd love this. Having several years of "consumer time" for each of the vocalists for NW... Tarja, Annette, Floor, Marko and Troy, I certainly have my preference. And Marko plays well with each and every combination. This pairing is no exception! Both Marko and Tarja shine. Together, individually and in support! Just Out-f-ing-Standing🤘👊
Great analysis... saw them together last month here in Buenos Aires... they sang this song before the official release... they sound amazing...they were enjoying every minute🖤🖤🖤🖤🤘🏻
Love Marko's voice! This might be the first time I've truly enjoyed Tarja's tone. They are spectacular together. That duet at the end tho. 😊. The joy and pleasure on your face from beginning to end was awesome to witness. Thanks for the analysis and reaction❤
I've been a fan of the certain symphonic metal band since 2004. and I realize now - that is 20 years... damn... I remember seeing them live several times when they were both still in Nightwish. I love them ALL. Every single one of them, whether they still are in the band or not. I loved them back then, I also love the current line-up. These two are very special and dear to me and I love that they are creating new music together again. Watching your reaction and seeing you getting equally nostalgic makes me also very happy ❤
Loved your reaction and agree with a lot of what you said. This song... this is what you do when you know your trade, when you have a story to tell, and you know you have nothing to prove to do it. It's so good. I love Marko's voice so much, love the cooperation with Tarja, loved the emotions of the song.
So wonderful to see you react again! I have been wandering online because of terrible drama in my life. Love the sound of this song, reminds me of some really good 80's rock songs. Besides, the lyrics are insane. I find this a masterpiece.
Chase I fall in love in your knowledge when you was making reactions for my beloved band Nightwish,missed so much your reactions for my band,wish you well
This is a great song, with great vocals. It has that hymnic quality without tasteless overbooked arrangement like the last Nightwish album. Much better than that pretencuous ego trip of Tuomas. Floor is still my favorite female singer, but Tarja shines here. Great job.
Hello Chase, greetings from UK Another great reaction Sir, thank you 😊 I also wondered about the choice of lyrics, it does make me think of different interpretations regarding meaning. I will read down the comments and see what everyone else is thinking 😉
I love seeing how musicians evolve in their styles and voices. I see Marko more relaxed making his music and Tarja doesn't sing "opera style", she does some very nice beltings. On the tour they did a few days ago they sang songs from Tarja's solo career (I hope they record them together officially): dark star and dead promises. I was lucky enough to see them live and wow!! Those voices are a privilege live. I hope you can react to Tarja in her solo career, she recently released dark star remastered or to some of the other songs that have strange (but beautiful) structures like anteroom of death. Tarja does not follow a single style, that is why each song you hear from her is different. It's difficult to analyze Tarja based on a single song. returning to dark star is a song that IMO she made for Thomas (Nightwish) and for me it is a message that they sang it together. please react to that song!
and this is the link singing them together. The sound is not very good because it is recorded from a cell phone but it is beautiful to see them together on stage again th-cam.com/video/Dh_np1uqaXM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aL7w-ebl6NLRRWtw
Hi Chase! I believe i read that Marko originally wrote this song about some communication issues he was having with his wife (partner? not sure) but when he got Tarja on board, the meaning behind the lyrics kinda took on a life of their own, you could say!
I'm probably reading way too much into this, but it's interesting that in the end of the video they are standing together and looking at the sky when there's a shooting star. Could this be a hint that they still have some kind of a major musical "wish" that they want to fulfill together?
I'm still sad that Marko is no longer in Nightwish, because he also always sounded so great with Floor. But...I mean...this....worth it? I'll be honest, from my own selfish PoV I'm very torn. Man, do I wish I could have the proverbial cake and eat it, too! That said, it's so nice to see Marko looking really happy and to have him working with Tarja again. This is fantastic.
2 epic songs among many others to check out on their current tour is 2 TARJA metal compositions - DARK STAR and DEAD PROMISES , Marko a perfect fit OF COURSE 🥰😍🤩
Holy crap! Old Nightwish fan here, got into them LONG before most folks. Floor's great I guess but she mostly leaves me cold and I stopped following the band. Never thought I'd see these two back together again.
Marko & Tarja always had amazing chemistry together in Nightwish, which I did not find replicated with any of the new singers (please note: that is not a comment upon the QUALITY of Anette or Floor. Both are great). I am so glad post-Nightwish that they have continued to work together and that they are doing it more formally now. I have the highest hopes for their future collaborations.
Well, I am not a reaction video expert and I appreciate what you have done all through the last few years, especially with Nightwish, but to be stark and honest... Tarja is a great reference point in how much I appreciate Floor's unearthly talent and Marko, he is simply the best, but with Nightwish...my God, surely you remember "Endlessness" and the whole darn 2013 Wacken event which is THE platinum standard. You would admit it in secret. Keep going Chase, it is good for you to give this video your thumbs up, but Marko must have forgiven Tarja's husband for this to happen. ....and thus most of us in the Army pray to Oden for Marko and Nightwish back in some capacity in 2026. We can only Ever dream, can't we?
I am loving finding how music can transcend and in this case come some sort of an old now new circle. I am so glad that Marko was not lost to music altogether. My heart is glad.
They were magic together 25 years ago and it still works. He's obviously gotten over his anxiety about performing and the musicians life and he was born for this.
This song is so good even though it still seems that Marko outshines Tarjas voice a bit. What is amousing these two having a collab is that Marko was the one who pushed the things in motion to get rid of Tarja from NW. Maybe he is now ”paying back” some lost years to her.
I think there’ll always be more business info around that time that we will never be privy too. But it’s really nice to see them working together here.
marko did everything he can do destroy Tarja, bur Tarja was to good (and stupid) to forgive treason from marco. And now they act as friend, witch they are not. It's from interest, marko and even Tarja.
On the one hand, you accuse Tarja of being naive, and on the other, that she and Marko do everything for money. That's quite a contradiction. After seeing them interact many times since 2017, I couldn't disagree with you more.
Ahah i won’t explain how much my heart melted when the video got released! That’s one banger of a song, too.
I paid attention to you mentioning how unic and identifiable voice Marko has. The damn dude won "Masked singer Finland". And won because no one recognized his voice, which is crazy 😅Even I did not recognize his voice and I'm embarrased about it. He is so versatile.
Haha I hear you but those scenarios are designed to make you second guess and think of the most unlikely person so I get it.
"talking to an old friend on the phone..." ... yes, what a great specification :)
something old,something new,something comforting. love tarja and marko. great reaction like beginning long time ago and of course have wonderful weekend.
Thank you for this and yes I hope you have a lovely weekend too.

Nice to hear you are living in the US!!!
This song really has some cathartic quality to it where it feels like Marko is rebuilding the bridges that were once burnt.
I've been following Marco on Facebook. He does come across much more relaxed these days and the stuff he's been doing solo and in colabs have been bangers.
Good to hear Tarja too!

I was so happy because their duett brought back so many great memories!!! Thanks for the video!

Just seeing the title I knew I'd be watching this. There's something special about Scandinavian, particularly Nordic rock.

This song is a banger! Love it! Gonna miss him so much on the new NW music coming out in September.

The end of the song gives me ELO-vibes and that’s not a bad thing. Love them both. ❤
Brilliant. They sound amazing together. More Tarja reactions please.
This is a great song, with great vocals. It has that hymnic quality without tasteless overbooked arrangement like the last Nightwish album. Much better than that pretencuous ego trip of Tuomas. Floor is still my favorite female singer, but Tarja shines here. Great job.
Chase ❤ my lovely musicians. Good song, very rock, very classicaly, rock argentine vibes 🤔 and good reaction.
Thank you so much
STUNNING FABULOUS and DEEP and that face to face part is to die for !!!!!!!!! Only thing better is their current epic tour together ☮☮💘💘💥💥

Tarja feels animosity after all of these years? I rather doubt it...

The guitar tone in the solo reminds me of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds, very appropriate.
Nice to get the notifications youtube.. thx
Kiitos. Next from Finland. POETS OF THE FALL. ANGEL official video (A lexander Theatre Sessions) I love this song.

It's funny, you sound like you've been a Nightwish fan since their beginnings. :D
Hahaha I feel like I'm there. Although my journey only started like 4 years ago I think?
2 epic songs among many others to check out on their current tour is 2 TARJA metal compositions - DARK STAR and DEAD PROMISES , Marko a perfect fit OF COURSE 🥰😍🤩
"he-yet-allah"
My friend you need to react to Herald of Darkness from Old God's of Asgard ( Aka Poets of the fall alter ego band)

Great reaction man👌 you should definitely react to Gethsemane by Nightwish 💯🤟
What do you think about the style. More like power metal, i think?
But yeah, really nice to hear them together again and good music is good music!
That's very classic hard rock.
I am loving finding how music can transcend and in this case come some sort of an old now new circle. I am so glad that Marko was not lost to music altogether. My heart is glad.
You should check some live performance video from their last tour. Great reaction!
They were magic together 25 years ago and it still works. He's obviously gotten over his anxiety about performing and the musicians life and he was born for this.
I think the closest spelling to correct pronounciation for English speakers (or readers...) is : "Maerco Heetala"
Thank god, there is no operatic vibration head voice at Tarja..
sopran i kontra tenor to prof. opery Tarja Turunen
