Another essential Nightwish song with Marko taking lead vocal is their incredible performance of "While Your Lips Are Still Red' from the Wembley 2015 concert
There is a small intro that Marco does that is worth hearing. It is in Finnish with subtitles.🎸🤘This song was written by Marco with lyrics by Tuomas.🎸🤘Marco earned his Floor Jansen is my back-up singer T- shirt.
Great reaction! Nightwish showcases their female singers (rightfully so), but I always enjoy hearing the other band members also. Marko has a very nice voice!
@purplebutterflywithabrokenwing Framus and Warwick are both in the same parent company group, hence the combination, as Marco is a Warwick exclusive bassist
The guitar is typically called a double neck, this particular one is nicknamed "The Beast". It consists of a guitar (lower neck) and a bass (upper neck). In some songs e.g. Elvenjig he even switches between guitar and bass mid song.
The bass/guitar combo's main reason for existing is the ability to switch mid song. An instrument like this is more commonly found among Progressive Rock bands.
Thanks for the reaction! I love this song! Islander was written by Marko, although Tuomas wrote the lyrics for it. I love those parts where Floor is the "backing vocalist" for Marko🥰 Now that Marko is no longer in Nightwish, he still sings this song, at least in his acoustic sets in South-America.
Talk about a sea shanty, Islander is one of Marko's best. That double neck guitar is one beautiful piece of equipment. In this concert I started to pick up the small tricks and subtleties kinda hidden in Kai's drumming. He really starts show why Jukka suggested Kai replace Jukka when he had to quit. If you wanna see Marko at his best vocals. Nightwish has heavily influenced by Pink Floyd. They did a tribute to Pink Floyd with Marko singing the Pink Floyd song High Hopes. Like Islander, Marko sings in his natural voice. Stunning is the only word I could come up with.
Marco was an exclusive artists of Warwick base guitars (German base guitar manufacturer). this guitar is a combo of a warwick base guitar and a Framus E-guitar wich is also a German guitar manufacturer but they went out of business and got bought at one time in the past by Warwick. so they built him this combo of the base part from Warwick and the E-guitar from Framus. for this song Marco is only using the E-guitar part.
I guess this song came forth in the Anette years, with Marko on lead and Anette on backing. Floor is good enough at backing, but still she loves to play around with belted notes. A similar line-up has the song When your lips are still red. Marko on lead, from the Wembley concert.
For the few here, and of course yourself, that don't know what he was saying in Finnish... "I was going to sing the chorus but I wasn't sure if you guys wanted to sing along with me... (Crowd responds) Are you sure? (Crowd responds) Ok then let's sing together...." (Continues the song) 😊❤️🤘🤘
We call that a double neck guitar. This one has a combination of electric 6 string and 4 string bass. Marko simple calls it The Beast. They are very heavy guitars to were around your neck for very long. Usually players use these sparingly due to the weight. 🌹🌹🦋🦋
Marko's guitar ("The beast") is a custom made double-neck by Framus (6-string) and Warwick (4-string bass). Framus/Warwick is a merger and a German guitar building company (>Wikipedia)
Have you not done their tribute to Pink Floyd? Can´t remember. The song High Hopes. Live End of an era. Marko lead and two amazing solos by Emppu. In that case I really hope you will react to that. Another one is Kiss while your lips are still red. live from Wembley with Marko on lead
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done again And because Marco sings alone, that's because it's an old song. Floor wasn't there at the time. And now they have included that as a duet.
124 Spider here. Hello dear Purple Butterfly, if you want to see Marco with even with an angel voice please check this song: "Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red (Live at Wembley Arena)" . Nice reaction as always.
Enjoyed your reaction to this beautiful song. I have seen in the comments the usual recommendations for more Marko with Nightwish and I do love While Your Lips are Still Red from Wembley. A beautiful tribute to innocent young love. Such sweet and deeply poetic lyrics. But my favorite Marko song with Nightwish is Endlessness from the Human Nature album. It is the last song on Disc 1 of the album and the last song Marko recorded and sang for Nightwish. Another beautiful song about living life to the fullest and then when our time comes, gracefully exiting the stage to whatever adventure awaits us in the next life. Lyric video is awesome and only way to go since Marko left before they could start touring in support of the album. Unfortunately probably won't ever be played live. To see another sweet side of Marko checkout this video of him singing Black Sabbath's Planet Caravan as a lullaby for their original drummer Jukka's newborn. th-cam.com/video/XpOrknB-QR8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1V13euhdTfhloNXb Marko has also done a lot of collaborations. One of my favorites is with Charlotte Wessels and Delain singing The Gathering at the Masters of Rock festival in 2017. th-cam.com/video/4X4jNBrFEn0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PozSQ7fCb_6Zy70F
I agree, in terms of music, song has a different sound to Nightwish songs. It's because Tuomas wrote only lyrics for this song, and music was written entirely by Marko. Song is good, but it feels like it should not be on this album, it falls out of general mood of album.

I have been wanting to react to that one!! 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
I concur!
@@purplebutterflywithabrokenwing go for it ..... 😁
One of my favorites
This is my favorite Nightwish video featuring Marko. He looks so relaxed, like he right where he belongs.
💜🤘🏻🦋🎶
It's really tough to choose between this and "High Hopes" where he really sings his soul out.
what great song this is such an absolutely beautiful composition
There is a small intro that Marco does that is worth hearing. It is in Finnish with subtitles.🎸🤘This song was written by Marco with lyrics by Tuomas.🎸🤘Marco earned his Floor Jansen is my back-up singer T- shirt.
I heard I’m gonna watch that on my own time. Thank you my friend. 💜🦋🎶🤘🏻
Ya I hate this version give me the one your referring to
@@blueeyes1110 th-cam.com/video/Zo8ncK_5kzc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tvY6cm0HPy0V9VVu
I wish whoever put this version up would take it down. The one with Marco's intro is just a special moment in the Tampere Concert.
@@yourwinefamily1939 I saw it listed as from Nightwish.
Great reaction! Nightwish showcases their female singers (rightfully so), but I always enjoy hearing the other band members also. Marko has a very nice voice!
🦋💜🤘🏻🎶
Backing singer is good on this..😎
Maybe one day she gets her own band or even goes solo?
😂😂
I mean I think she’s pretty amazing myself 😂💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
@@David_randomnumber 😂😂😂
Yeah, not bad....shows promise.
The part where Marko is speaking Finnish translates as something like "If I sing the chorus, will you sing it with me? You will? Okay, here we go."
Thank you!! 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
The doubleneck Marko is playing is a Warwick 4 string bass coupled with a Framus six string guitar.
Thank you!! 💜🦋🤘🏻🤘🏻

Infinity bass/Panthera guitar made by Warwick. Btw, the guitar has extra piezo pickups for that distinct acoustic sound.

A great performance. It is a pity you were not given the link to the full version of this where Marko chats to the crowd before signing.
I will check it out on my own time 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
nice, thank you
No thank you 💜🦋🎶🤘🏻

Knew you would like 👍
😊💜🦋🤘🏻🎶

Another one is Kiss while your lips are still red. live from Wembley with Marko on lead
She definitely needs to react to their tribute to Pink Floyds "High Hopes!"
I have done that one. It’s under Nightwish Marko on my playlist. 💜🦋🎶🤘🏻
Warwick Infinity / Panthera Double neck Bass and Guitar - hand-made for Marko. "The Beast".
🦋💜🎶🤘🏻
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done again And because Marco sings alone, that's because it's an old song. Floor wasn't there at the time. And now they have included that as a duet.
💜🦋🎶🤘🏻
I think Troy is here playing the low whistle, not his pipes
That's correct
My bad I don’t know my instruments 💜🎶🤘🏻🦋
That guitar type is usually called a "Double neck" and incorporates guitar and bass.
Nice 👍 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶

I really wanna react to that song 🦋💜🎶🤘🏻
It´s called a double-neck guitar. Usually it´s a 6 and a 12 string guitar. but Marko use a 6 string and a bass guitar. It´s called the beast
The beast I like it 💜🦋🎶🤘🏻
Next has to be While your lips are still from Wembley 2015 one of Marco's finest
💜🦋🎶🤘🏻
Please could you increase your microphone volume a bit to match the music volume?
It’s at max volume and I test it before hand it’s been being finicky lately, so might have to get a new one 🫠💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
Thats Marcos Infinity/Panthera Double neck bass guitar. Marco is exclusive to Warwick. Hecalso ises a Warwick Vampyre. All custom ofcourse.
Awesome 💜🦋🎶🤘🏻

Try Phantom of The Opera with Tarja Turunen
Shortened video? Missing some part.... too bad.
This was the one I was given, so I didn’t know any different 🦋💜🎶🤘🏻
Good reaction, but can barely hear you.
I can hear it fine just listened to it on PC what are you watching on?
@@purplebutterflywithabrokenwing pc. If I turn it all the way up I can hear, but then the music is blasting.
Another Marko-banger is the Pink Floyd "cover", better a Tribute "High Hopes"
I have done that one. It is in Nightwish Marko on my playlist 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶
