What this version misses is Marko at the beginning telling the crowd that the rest of the "weasels" had left him to entertain the crowd on his own so they are surprised when most of the band join in except Emppu.
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" Custom Warwick Infinity bass with Framus Panthera guitar, very heavy and very expensive. Marko brought the music with him from Tarot, the band he was lead singer for before joining Nightwish. It didn't fit with them. Tuomas heard Marko playing it one day, decided it would make a great song, and wrote the lyrics about a lonely lighthouse keeper. From the 2007 Dark Passion Play album. Btw, Tampere is a 3 syllable word. You can hear Floor say it in the intro to Stargazers at this concert.
Hello again Killogic. Beautiful reaction to this wonderful little sea shanty by our incredible Marko Hietala. And, as many others have said, he has a hell of a talent for picking his backup female vocalist. Loved it. And loved your reaction. Thank you.
Hello, I hope everything has been going well with you! This was a real fun song but im also a sucker for those types sea shanty like songs, I was also really impressed with his instrument. I would have to agree with observation of picking the perfect back-up singer...lol...Some really awesome stuff I really enjoyed it!
Hey bro!!! Thanks. Good reaction!!! This is unbelieable. Imagine you singing, and Floor is your back singer!!!! Greettings from Argentina. Sorry for my English
We had 20 years of Marco and he's happy with his change in life and if any group of fans are used to changes in a band then Nightwish Army are pro's . Marco plays Warrick bass only and the guitar part is a Framus guitar that Warrick bought that company before making this custom guitar & bass just for Marco .
it's definitely worth getting to know Marko's music through his entire musical career, a 40-year career! Tarot, Nightwish, Northern Kings, Masked singer competition (he won the Finnish Masked Singer competition a few years ago), solo career, etc. Visits to many bands' albums and gigs, such as Delain perhaps the biggest. The list of songs where Marko has been a singer, bassist or guitarist... is long! And really many genres, not just metal Perhaps a slightly more fun side of Nightwish is presented by this song / video made for their videographer. Marko sings... As mentioned many times, Nightwish + Crewish is like a family. So this video of theirs represents that. And in the pictures at the end, you can see how they really are like one family. BTW. How many bands have made a song for their videographer??? Nightwish: Christmas Song for a Lonely Documentarist
Didn't l just see him win a version of THE MASKED SINGER? Yes ....I can't remember which country..he has an excellent voice . Yes it was masked singer Finland..🤟🎶☮️
That double-neck is called "The beast" He uses that in My Walden and Weak fantasy and Dead boy´s poem. Probably some other songs also but my mind draw blank now. Hahahahaha
Is this another re-upload? Hard to believe you haven't done this before? Marco started as a lead guitarist so he knows how to play! He is a Warwick bass man, so The Beast was commissioned from the Framus group who make 6 strings while their subsidiary Warwick make basses. Marco wrote the music for this, while Tuomas' wrote the lyrics. There is a music video too, with the singer at the time, Anette, backing him. Not many men can say Floor was their backup singer.BYW, not Tam-Peer or TampeRAY. Closer to Tahm-per-eh but the the "uh" is close to an "e". Hard to describe but Floor says it during this show if you care to watch. You should also go back and watch his spoken intro to this
This was my first time ever hearing it! Such an awesome song as well as being lucky to be one of the few Floor has sang back-up for!!! Truly beautiful stuff!!!
Hello again, greetings from UK Another great reaction, thank you 😊 Marko is one of the few people who can say that Floor Janson is his backing singer! 🤣 Did you see the smile on his face when the band joined in, and the proud look on Floor's face when he finished? Priceless! Also Floor was careful to keep her voice softer and beneath Marko's so as not to steal his limelight and keep him in lead vocals Regarding "The Beast", here is a 15 minute video where "Gear Gods Rigged" examine Nightwish kit , including this guitar th-cam.com/video/6dhSkfbHXJc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OIjdvbowaA1Kvm93
@@jeffk1482 You are most welcome my friend, if I run across any more interesting stuff like this I will let you know I saw the episode they did with Epica and I think it was the band who took them round looking at the kit, not the techs. The eye opener for me was the backing tracks which even feed to the lighting and front of house But then I am just a fan, not a musician 😀
Marco will forever be able to claim that the best female singer on the planet was his backup singer!

Greetings and thank you I really appreciate it, no worries your English is better then mine lol
The 'Beast' as its called is a hybrid, the Bass is a Warwick and the 6 string is a Framus 🤘
I wish this man, our Marco, all the best and wonderful the world can give to him. But.... 😢😭

Its a real piece of art, thanks for the info!
Marko's Song is beautiful. one of the few not written by Tuomas. Yes Tuomas put the instrumentals with it for him 2007 . Marko is exclusive Warwick.
This song is awesome. Marko is awesome. Thank you for this reaction. ❤

Nightwish: Christmas Song for a Lonely Documentarist
Definitely the most fun song of them/him.
@jukkahelminen9071 Thanks so much for mentioning this. I didn't know about it and will be watching right away.
Yeah I will be digging into his musical career for sure! He s such an impressive artist!
Didn't l just see him win a version of THE MASKED SINGER? Yes ....I can't remember which country..he has an excellent voice . Yes it was masked singer Finland..🤟🎶☮️
Im not sure how many countries they do that show in but yes he has an incredible voice, I'm looking forward to checking out his solo stuff!

Pretty awesome instrument for sure!!!
Who else but Marco has Floor as his back up singer - friggin' epic LOL!
