Lol. Let's put this in frames. It should be noted that as it became customary to seek a vantage point in relation to your opponent, one would bring along a stone or two to have something to stand on and one-up your opponent's pile of stones. Hence the pyramids. That's how they rolled, and that's probably how they learned to rock as well.
One wrong turn in the back alleys of Kuopio... Brings to mind also that brilliant Monty Python sketch about bicyclists getting lost just outside of London - only to find themselves circling around on the French countryside.
TAROT is one of the best heavy metal bands EVER and currently not many bands still play classic heavy metal so these guys keep it real and alive! ...and Marco ... he just gets better and better ?! his voice is awesome. Top vocalists of all time.
I hope more Tarot albums emerge now Marko can shine outside nightwish! Great with them,great without them! This band so underrated! All talented and harmonies outstanding!
I've had this song stuck in my head all week and I have a strange fascination with this video. I keep wanting to watch it. I just love the way that Marco and Tommi's voices fit together.
I love the harmonisation of the two voices, they work really well together. When I first heard them I was like "Humm maybe they did it because then Marco can go tour with Nightwish while Tarot are on tour.", but after this song I'm not so sure about that.
Thease guys might get old But their spirits are New as hell...The fact is They will walk Forever even when their bodys Wont let them to...I Love theese Guys
Tarot: * Marco Hietala Lead vocals, Bass guitar, Acoustic guitars (1986-) * Zachary Hietala Guitars (1986-) * Janne Tolsa Keyboards (1988-) * Pecu Cinnari Drums (1986-) * Tommi Tuple Salmela Vocals, Sampler (1996-) Some facts for you all
One Hietala: The deffinition of awesomeness combined with epicness. Two Hietala: Not even a superhuman can get to grip with the magnitude of the pure awesomeness.
Marco told a funny story about making this music video in his book. They had only slept few hours after many days of drinking having to shoot this video and ride on camels with a nice hangover without actual licence to shoot video in Egypt. 🤘
ugg i heard about Tarot through Marco's work with Nightwish but now i cant fathom how anyone could do that, it should be the other way around, Tarot's so good.
Zachary has a good voice, and the music is pretty good, But it's Marco's voice that makes it truely worth listening to. I wish that Nightwish would use his vocals more. His vocals are so unique.
I'm going to Egypt for a month, maybe I'll meet them right there ;) Zachary's voice is awesome, for the 1st time I thought it was Marco so good it is xD
I’ve only recently become obsessed with Marko. I discovered my obsession right before he left Nightwish, so I’m now searching out everything Marko. Thank for this gem!
Yay!! A new video clip and a new album! I have been waiting so long for this! About 3 years! It's good to see Marco back in action after so long! Excellent song! But I would by far prefer it if the backing vocalist didn't sing at all :D It's not that I don't like his voice but I prefer Marco's!
I know a lot of people don't like it but this is the kind of music I subbed to NBE for. I like the other stuff too, so chill out if you don't like this song. The best part about NBE is that they can be diverse. Also epic facial hair up in this vid xD
Tommi's trying so hard to be dramatic and Marco's walking around and lounging like he doen't even know the cameras are rolling. The funny thing is Marco still looks cooler.
only found this band about 2 hrs ago and already listened to this song about 5 times and some others. I thought the guy looked familiar, Marco from my other favourite band, Nightwish. Dude is awesome.
@ZSoulProductions i believe it's Tommi the keyboardist in this video singing the vocals with marco. At least that's whats said in the interview on ultimate-guitar
@Jeudaos Marco's main band is Tarot, Nightwish is the money maker and keeps the food on the table as he's stated. Tommi has been doing backup for a looong time + sampler. He's also great. I think they make a great team in vocals.
@TheAzathor Tarot´s members: Marco Hietala (vocals,bass), Zachary Hietala (guitar) ,Tommi Salmela (vocals,sampler) ,Pecu Cinnari (Drum), Janne Tolsa (keys) You can see more The Official Tarot Website
@Androbedaras : No, he has not left Nightwish. Nightwish is still well together. Tarot is Marco's band that started in the '80's. He's featured (as a member or a guest) in several different bands, as a matter of fact. Tarot and Nightwish isn'tt even half of them.
@itonlyhurtstilludie Marco's been in music like, ten years longer than anyone in Nightwish. He joined the band in time for the Century Child album, and that's where you first hear him singing in Nightwish songs. Marco's still in Nightwish and Tarot, and he also does a number of side projects. He even mentioned he's been working on a solo album for a long time.
@Krowsnest While I agree with you in that just because it's metal doesn't mean it has to be angry, growling/screaming DOES take skill, and it's all a matter of taste.
nice, I was so the opposite, I found the joy on Nightwish when Marco went there Somehow I was exposed to the much less popular on a world stage Tarot before Nightwish. Either way so glad to know of and listen to both since!
woah thats marco lol. i just clicked this from my nuclear blast subscription cuz it helps me discover new music lol and apparently it leads me to some good new music ^_^
@vossers Thanks for mentioning Delain, I hadn't heard of them before and your description of them seemed good, so I listened to April Rain and that's a great song!! What songs are your favorites? ;)
marco is the best vocalist ever to walk on earth....i look up to him.....tommi salmela is also one of the best vocalists but marco is a god walking on earth....my favorite singer along with aaron stainthorpe from My Dying Bride
@ComedyS66 Okay, I agree to disagree then. I think he's got a hell of a voice. I also look up to him, his playing inspired me to pick up the bass. So we're somewhat in the same bucket, eh?
Marco Hietala is one of the most talented bassist/vocalists ever born.
Thank you for praising the world with your voice, Marco
I love Marco's voice. I was so happy to find out he had his own band, cause he doesn't sing enough in Nightwish.
Finnish people regularly have metal singing duels in Egypt. It's a time-honored traditional way of handling disputes.
Lol. Let's put this in frames.
It should be noted that as it became customary to seek a vantage point in relation to your opponent, one would bring along a stone or two to have something to stand on and one-up your opponent's pile of stones. Hence the pyramids.
That's how they rolled, and that's probably how they learned to rock as well.
Lmao
Morning coffee out the nose.
Decade later and still funny AF.
Still possibly one of my favourite comments on anything on YT ever
Everything Marco does is amazing! Nightwish, Tarot, Northern Kings, even guest spots with Delain. Marco rules!
This video reminds me a bit of the movie Hangover. Marco and Tommi got drunk back here in finland and next morning they wake up in Egypt
One wrong turn in the back alleys of Kuopio... Brings to mind also that brilliant Monty Python sketch about bicyclists getting lost just outside of London - only to find themselves circling around on the French countryside.
TAROT is one of the best heavy metal bands EVER and currently not many bands still play classic heavy metal so these guys keep it real and alive! ...and Marco ... he just gets better and better ?! his voice is awesome. Top vocalists of all time.
Its good to see that Marco still has time for Tarot and has not forgoten his roots.
Nine years later, this song still a classic for us ! Thank you Tarot, thank you Marco !
This band deserves SO much more recognition!!! \M/
Marco in a suit...omg... amazing music... YEAH that's Tarot!!!
Probably the only time besides getting married, hahaha
I hope more Tarot albums emerge now Marko can shine outside nightwish! Great with them,great without them! This band so underrated! All talented and harmonies outstanding!
After the death of pecu they became pretty much non existant. I don't think there will be new stuff from tarot anymore :(
I discovered this band RIGHT NOW because I was looking for more Marko Hietala songs, besides Nightwish, to listen to and now I'm addicted to them!!!
i love Marco's voice its powerfull
+Mel Sunbeam you are right what you say
+Jukka Tossavainen but have together sing whit tommi salmela
the more i listen to marco the more i love his voice i get lost in the music when he sings
I love his tone. Strong, steady and of course, powerful.
I've had this song stuck in my head all week and I have a strange fascination with this video. I keep wanting to watch it. I just love the way that Marco and Tommi's voices fit together.
There is only one word for this: UNDERRATED
First Tarot video for me! I never knew Nightwish's bassist could sing so good!
I love the harmonisation of the two voices, they work really well together. When I first heard them I was like "Humm maybe they did it because then Marco can go tour with Nightwish while Tarot are on tour.", but after this song I'm not so sure about that.
True matell men at his finest . Maximum respect
Hope theres some more Tarot in the future, Marco and Tommi together are great
Thease guys might get old But their spirits are New as hell...The fact is They will walk Forever even when their bodys Wont let them to...I Love theese Guys
my favorite band....they are one of the bands (along with my dying bride) that have never dissapointed me with their albums
!!!!!!!!!! I nearly cried...Amazing!!!!
Marco has such a Magical voice
Tarot:

* Zachary Hietala Guitars (1986-)
* Janne Tolsa Keyboards (1988-)
* Pecu Cinnari Drums (1986-)
* Tommi Tuple Salmela Vocals, Sampler (1996-)
Some facts for you all

Marco: I walk forever
Tarja: I walk alone
Me: Forever alone
Lol
Marco told a funny story about making this music video in his book. They had only slept few hours after many days of drinking having to shoot this video and ride on camels with a nice hangover without actual licence to shoot video in Egypt. 🤘
Tarot is in TUSKA 2010! Have to buy tickets to see them!!
That vibrato is Godly. Hell, so is the harmony
Marco Hietala tem um dom maravilhoso e um timbre raro que deixa tudo limpo, nítido e confortável de se ouvir, amo esse cara!
ugg i heard about Tarot through Marco's work with Nightwish but now i cant fathom how anyone could do that, it should be the other way around, Tarot's so good.
2020 anyone I wanna go back to these years when COVID wasn’t a thing
Listened to this song once and I already love it. Can't wait for the new album.
By far my favourite song out at the moment!
There´s no way Marco could look bad, even with aging he´s still very attractive *-*
Tarot are A M A Z I N G!!! great video, great texture, great song!
Marco u rock FOREVER, i wish you all the best man,keep up the good songs.
Zachary has a good voice, and the music is pretty good, But it's Marco's voice that makes it truely worth listening to. I wish that Nightwish would use his vocals more. His vocals are so unique.
I'm going to Egypt for a month, maybe I'll meet them right there ;)
Zachary's voice is awesome, for the 1st time I thought it was Marco so good it is xD
I’ve only recently become obsessed with Marko. I discovered my obsession right before he left Nightwish, so I’m now searching out everything Marko. Thank for this gem!
I hope you got more into Tarot! Very underrated band! Easily Marko's best work is with Tarot!
I love the version that was arranged for a choir for Kuorosota.
Awesome voices -> Awesome band
Marco is a freaking modernday Viking!!!!
@TheAkitamura He also sings in Tarot for a long time now thats why u know his voice, he is Tommi Salmela, the second singer of Tarot:)
Marco's the damn man.
marco you are the best .. great video
@Shadowrunner92 Yes he was taken place only Thunderstone european tour couple of years ago!
@Ajaxxx15 agreed, it is an excellent harmony. The live version of the islander, poet and the pendulum showcase that pretty well.
Yay!! A new video clip and a new album! I have been waiting so long for this! About 3 years! It's good to see Marco back in action after so long! Excellent song! But I would by far prefer it if the backing vocalist didn't sing at all :D It's not that I don't like his voice but I prefer Marco's!
I was listening to this on the way to Canarias...want more. Thank you Tommi and Jaakko!
I know a lot of people don't like it but this is the kind of music I subbed to NBE for. I like the other stuff too, so chill out if you don't like this song. The best part about NBE is that they can be diverse.
Also epic facial hair up in this vid xD
Nice. This particular song has a feel similar to Whitesnake in the late 80s. Very cool.
@Androbedaras
No, he didn´t go anywhere from Nightwish. Nw is on a break right now, they are making new album. Tarot is his another band.
Tommi's trying so hard to be dramatic and Marco's walking around and lounging like he doen't even know the cameras are rolling. The funny thing is Marco still looks cooler.
Uma banda muito interessante que merecia mais atenção...
@PcCAvioN He is originally from this group Tarot, his own band.
And yes, Marco is also bassist/vocalist for Nightwish.
only found this band about 2 hrs ago and already listened to this song about 5 times and some others. I thought the guy looked familiar, Marco from my other favourite band, Nightwish. Dude is awesome.
MINÄ RAKASTAN SUOMEA!!!
I LOVE FINLAND!!!
MILUJU FINSKO!!!
greetings from Czech.
I hoped, Tarot will be the same as ages ago, not like Bodom, Sonata, etcetc...I truely proud of Tarot ^^
Marco is the best singer Nightwish ever had.
@ZSoulProductions i believe it's Tommi the keyboardist in this video singing the vocals with marco. At least that's whats said in the interview on ultimate-guitar
@Jeudaos Marco's main band is Tarot, Nightwish is the money maker and keeps the food on the table as he's stated. Tommi has been doing backup for a looong time + sampler. He's also great. I think they make a great team in vocals.
Marco is a great singer!!! I love him
Rest In Peace Peku Cinnari.
I love all three bands this guy has played in (the three I know of) and he just plain rocks. XD
@TheAzathor Tarot´s members: Marco Hietala (vocals,bass), Zachary Hietala (guitar) ,Tommi Salmela (vocals,sampler) ,Pecu Cinnari (Drum), Janne Tolsa (keys)
You can see more The Official Tarot Website
@Joutja123 He is indeed. Make sure you check out the really old video of Tarot called ''Wings of Darkness'', you won't recognise marco there!
Kyllä on harvinaisen ärsyttävä biisi kiitos radio rockille joka soittaa tätä noin 15 kertaa päiväs.
Rock on
I'm really digging this song.
@Androbedaras : No, he has not left Nightwish. Nightwish is still well together. Tarot is Marco's band that started in the '80's. He's featured (as a member or a guest) in several different bands, as a matter of fact. Tarot and Nightwish isn'tt even half of them.
they deserve so much more
vacation vids of Tarot..... Awsome!
Great! Guess the album is another must-have!
@Supernova743612
The other singer is Tommi Salmela. He joined Tarot somewhere during the 90s, I think.
awesome ! i am a fan of marco hietala's way to sing
By the way, thx NBE for posting this song, so many big companies just want to mute or delete every song they own from the web, so thank you
@itonlyhurtstilludie Marco's been in music like, ten years longer than anyone in Nightwish. He joined the band in time for the Century Child album, and that's where you first hear him singing in Nightwish songs.
Marco's still in Nightwish and Tarot, and he also does a number of side projects. He even mentioned he's been working on a solo album for a long time.
awesome. cant wait for album
@sebastal Yeah, this is Marco's and his brother's band. Tarot has existed since 1982. I prefer Tarot over Nightwish.
@Krowsnest While I agree with you in that just because it's metal doesn't mean it has to be angry, growling/screaming DOES take skill, and it's all a matter of taste.
@PcCAvioN of course it is
tarot is marco's band and it's a lot older than nightwish
nice, I was so the opposite, I found the joy on Nightwish when Marco went there Somehow I was exposed to the much less popular on a world stage Tarot before Nightwish. Either way so glad to know of and listen to both since!
woah thats marco lol. i just clicked this from my nuclear blast subscription cuz it helps me discover new music lol and apparently it leads me to some good new music ^_^
A new Album! Awesome!
why doesnt this song have a billion views :O
Epic song, nothing less.
i love the album i think is the best album 2010 so far and the new exodus !!!!!!!!!!
@vossers Thanks for mentioning Delain, I hadn't heard of them before and your description of them seemed good, so I listened to April Rain and that's a great song!!
What songs are your favorites? ;)
Pyramids ... Slayer did it :) Now seriously ... Great song from a great band!
I can see Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure filing a copyright claim...
yeahhh Nightwish and Tarot
marco is the best vocalist ever to walk on earth....i look up to him.....tommi salmela is also one of the best vocalists but marco is a god walking on earth....my favorite singer along with aaron stainthorpe from My Dying Bride
Great song, can't wait for the album.
Aw, nothing like good music to make you feel good. :D
@Chamolei yes, both are great :-)
damn straight dude the hietala brothers kick ass
Excellent! I like hearing the vocals!
Marco thietala!!!! OMFG i never had listened this band, is really good
@ComedyS66
Okay, I agree to disagree then. I think he's got a hell of a voice. I also look up to him, his playing inspired me to pick up the bass. So we're somewhat in the same bucket, eh?
Tää kertosäe on kyllä jotain aivan käsittämättömän hienoa!!
