![[Reaction] Nightwish - The Islander (Live at Tampere)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9-Mp0ymGLJU/mqdefault.jpg)
Nightwish is from Finland, he speaks Finnish and the concert was in Finland so obviously they all know the language 😊
They are more international nowadays with Floor from the Netherlands and Troy from England. The rest of the band still from 🇫🇮.
To hear Marko sing solo, see Nightwish's tribute to Pink Floyd with, High Hopes, live End Of An Era 2005. He's very talented! Even more so with his solo projects...esp w his original band, Tarot, song, Tides, live (Undead Indeed)...a vocal performance thats powerful and haunting...total control! I can't pay you, but I hope you put those on your list!
Also listen to death march for freedom
Interestingly, Marco’s unique voice is actually the result (or complication - believe it or not…) of prior vocal cord surgery to remove a benign polyp…
He was advised by his ENT surgeon to not even speak for weeks afterwards… He was seriously concerned and distraught that he would never sing again…
@furdturgeson_89 Yes, you're right! He explained that in his book...he also said, years later he was told that he didn't even need the surgery! Thankfully it turned out well for him and for us, getting to appreciate that voice!
Finnish. High Hopes is a great one live.
I concur. High Hopes is an older cut, but well worth it - especially if you are a fan of Pink Floyd. It is more a tribute to Pink Floyd than a cover. It also showcases Empuu's guitar chops. Another thing about the High Hopes tribute is that it was the concert after which they told Tarja she was being let go. At the time of the performance, Tarja was backstage doing a costume change. They all knew what was coming after the concert, so that added to the somber mood of the song. Link: czcams.com/video/jXTmh8fC_RQ/video.html
I concur
The double-neck guitar was made popular by Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin... it would allow him to play two differently tuned guitars alternatively... Here, Marco Hietala (who is from Finalnd and was speaking Finnish in Tampere, Finland) has the double-neck w/ guitar and a bass (He's the bassist) ...Unfortunately, he quit Nightwish in 2021 after recording the Nightwish album 'Human II Nature'... he had been w/ the band since 2002.
Marco Hietala has since released a solo album... He's older than the other members of Nightwish and had his own band Tarot in which he was the lead singer/bassist and they have a few albums... 'The Islander' was a Nightwish song he sang lead on... Others were - 'While your lips are still red'... 'Planet Hell' ... 'Bye bye beautiful' ... 🤘🤘🔥🔥
Well if you love hearing marco sing i suggest you react to the tribute Nightwish did for pink floyds " HIGH HOPES " .....incredible
THIS!!!!!
I concur
100% this
Marko is a huge rabbit hole worth exploring. He's got 40-50 years worth of music to explore. From his band Tarot to many other bands he's worked with to his solo work and managed all of this despite a botched throat surgery in the late 90s.
Yup. He has been singing in bands since he was 17, or at least that is how far back the videos go. He must have been singing before then because he has always been great in any video you ever find of his performances.
It is a combo - guitar and bass. Double neck as you say. Check also the video of this cause it gives feelings and so. Tampere is the in Finland - the home country of Nightwish - and they speak Finnish in Finland - not the most common in the US to hear.
The Greates show on earth by Nightwish live at Tampere. The last song in this same concert. An amazing thing. Please react to that.
The double neck is a Warrick bass on top and a Framus Guitar on the bottom Note: The Warrick guitar company owns the Framus brand Guitars . Troy was play a Low Whistle (wind instrument)
Model Infinity Panthera...the Warwick bass/Framus guitar cistom double neck guitar...nicknamed "The Beast" for it's heft.
This one is so neat because in many songs Floor stands out spectacularly, but Marco is RIGHT THERE with her, matching her voice perfectly, adding even more substance. In one song, you see them come together then split in a spectacular, dramatic moment. Here Floor is in the reversed position, coming in late to add contrast, substance and resonance to Marco's part. As usual, they both sound fantastic. It is rare to see a band with TWO lead singers, and ones that have the talent and capacity to match to each other's styles as well as Floor and Marco did. He could do smooth or harsh, and she could match him. She could do brilliant and ethereal, and he would be right there with her. I wish him luck in the future, but I really miss having these two performing together.
100%
The "Beast", as he called it, is a Warwick Infinity / Panthera Double neck Bass and Guitar. Marko speaks many languages - Finnish, Swedish and English to name just three!
Since he married Camila and is living in Spain, my guess is you can add Portuguese and Spanish to that list.
@@vogel2280 And on top of that he's fluent in Sawonian(finnish dialect) a local dialect of the area he is originally from. 😹
A Whoooleee another language compared to finnish, you could safely say.. Hahaha
Sawonia is just the area from where this one is typing down these puns to locals around here.
🤘😜🇫🇮💙💯💥
Absolutely adore Nightwish, thanks for this!
Definitely High Hopes a Pink Floyd cover as others have rightly suggested. One listen and you will always be a Marco fan for life. He absolutely slays the vocals. Pink Floyd really liked it too. Concert was in Wembley England.
Yeah, that was COOL! That has to be THE BEST 'cover' of Pink Floyd! It's not so much a cover in the traditional sense, as a re-imagining of the song. Nightwish calls it a tribute. :)
Pretty sure the end of an era concert was at the Hartwell arena in Helsinki, Finland.
This concert was on Finland ,Tampere. Floor spoke mostly English because she knew only few words in Finnish.
The Finn's speak English very well.
@@paulchapman2569
1. That's not what he said.
2. He's Finnish.
I know they Finnish, and most Finn's can speak English, so she's better speaking in English than Dutch.
@@paulchapman2569 She has lived almost a year in Joensuu 🇫🇮, in Karelia, the area which is eastern part of FIN leaning on the RUS border and she speaks more than few words of finnish, atleast back in the days when swedish wasn't too deeply stucked on her multilingual repertoire.
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥
Correct but this was 8 years ago.
4;53 Marko's smile when the "weasels" start playing, priceless.....🤘🤣🤘
Well, A lot to learn grasshopper 😁!
Marko speaks Finnish (ex-Nightwish).
He is Playing an Warwick Infinity / Panthera Double neck Bass and Guitar ( It is called THE BEAST).
This "sea shanty" song is perfect for Marko "The Viking" Hietala.
And, well, having Floor as your backup vocalist, you know you are a Legend, that Marko unquestionably is !!!
Floor steps back out of the spotlight during a lot of songs. Guitar solos, Marko singing, Troy playing the pipes, whatever it is, Floor steps back from the mic out of the spotlight, while the others have their moment. Floor is a team player. She has said on multiple occasions that Tuomas (founder, leader, keyboardist, songwriter and the main composer for Nightwish) makes Nightwish run, not her.
NWSU/FloorFan 🤘😎🤘.
Was it a Framus guitar placed on the Warwick body (customized)? If I recall correctly... (???)
Hyvä Timo!
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥
Like his voice and the beautiful composition. Very airy, dreamy, like an ancient tale.
High hopes and phantom of the opera. Both from end of an era concert will really give you Marco's range and voice control
Check out their cover of Walking in the air. 😊
At the end...
He just walks away...
He's been there done that before...Nice!..🤘
Marcos solo ..Voice of my father...🤘🇫🇮👍😎
That guitar is named The Beast. It's bass and guitar in one, custom made for him. Don't ask what kind of brand or whatever. But I'm sure google knows. That part in Finnish is him asking the crowd to sing along. Love this song. Warms my heart. You want more of Marko? Try out: Marko Hietala - The voice of my father.
The Beast is a Warwick Infinity bass and Framus Panthera guitar - Marko is a Warwick artist and Framus is the guitar making side of the Warwick company founded in Germany,
Marko has been lead singer in metal since 1984 or so, so he definitely can sing. Might be the only male voice in Finland who can cover Ronnie James Dio and not sound inadequate - and he did that on some Sapattivuosi albums, covering Black Sabbath in Finnish.
For further Marko, check Phantom of the Opera (live 2005, End of an Era DVD), High Hopes (same concert), While Your Lips Are Still Red (live on Wembley), Weak Fantasy (live in Tampere).
Beautifully amazing ❤️🔥
If you want to hear more of Marco sing lead vocals, I highly recommend that you react to "While Your Lips Are Still Red" from the Nightwish concert at Wembley 2015. It is a beautiful ballad with Floor singing backing vocals and also features Troy (the guy in The Islander video playing the low whistle) plays some haunting guitar solos with an e-bow
Marko’s guitar is a double neck bass/ guitar. It is affectionately known as The Beast.🤘🎸
Often when i watch Nightwish-reactions and the reactor asks questions and i want to write down something good in the comments but i know that the Nightwish-Army does a good job so i'm not worried...but sometimes it's fun to do it anyways 😄😉😎🤘
If someone finds it interesting here is my top 20 list of Nightwish-songs:
1. Devil and the deep dark ocean (Marko and Floor singing)
2. Sleeping Sun (Tarja singing)
3. Dark chest of wonders (Tarja singing)
4. Everdream (Marko and Floor singing)
5. Last Ride of the day (Marko and Floor singing)
6. Wishmaster (Tarja singing)
7. High hopes (Marko singing, Pink Floyd tribute
8. Nemo (Tarja singing)
9. The poet and the pendulum (Marko and Floor singing)
10. Wish i had an angel (Marko and Tarja singing)
11. Romanticide (Marko and Floor singing)
12. The greatest show on earth (Marko and Floor singing)
13. Dead boys poem (Floor singing)
14. Ghost love score (Floor singing)
15. While your lips are still red (Marko singing)
16. Shoemaker (Floor singing)
17. Yours is an empty hope (Marko and Floor singing)
18. Phantom of the opera (Marko and Tarja singing)
19. The Siren (Tarja and Marko singing)
20. Storytime (Floor singing)
21. Ghost River (Marko and Floor singing)
I am so glad to see you doing another Nightwish reaction. Marko Hietala is often known as the Father of metal in Finland. His voice, as you have heard, is unique. Others have mentioned specific songs if you want to hear more from him. For more from Marko in Nightwish, I agree with High Hopes. From his solo album, Voice of My Father is wonderful. I actually like the version sung in Finnish "Isäni ääni." Finnish is such a lovely language, and in the Finnish version, the video isn't blurred like it is in the English version, because the sung words match.

@@MegaDog555 Dang right, Mega! Flour/Flower City
@@WNYretiree im in greece/charlotte area
@@MegaDog555 Opposite side of the city then. Penfield/Webster for me.
The backing singer on this is quite good should go far,,😎
Hello, Mr LBoyd. I absolutely love your reactions to our beloved Nightwish. Ummmm. Recommendations based upon this Marko led vocal song. Hmmmm I would start with Nightwish's tribute to Pink Floyd, "High Hopes". Then I would turn to their lovely song at Wembley 2015, "While Your Lips Are Still Red". Thank you, sir. Loved it.
I concur
Another great!!!
The language is Finnish - the show is in Finland, so naturally they know what he's saying.
Thank for the always nice reaction. If u like his voice try listening to "High Hopes" a cover of the well known "Pink Floyd" , Its quite an old song but i really love his way of interpreting the song in a real Nightwish way.
The instrument he plays is called the Beast, electric bass and electro-acoustic guitar combo. They were originally from different companies but now brands owned by the same company so he could order a custom unit featuring both.
Fun fact: his formal music education was on classical guitar.
You mentioned that he mostly backs up Floors vocals. While there is truth to that, I think there are more songs than you may realize that Marcos and Floors vocals are actually equal during the chorus of the song. They sound so good together.
Nitghtwish is Great. I found out about them a few years ago. They make great music.
A great reaction, love you, man.
👍👍 Marko speaks the language of Finland. Fub fact Floor Jansen began as a buckgriubd singer in the first band she auditioned for.
it is Finnish, and he is essentially asking the audience to sing along.
Nightwish - High Hopes
"High Hopes " would be nice. A Pink Floyd song Marco and the group perform very nicely.
Finnish Marko asks if they would like to sing along. The guitar is a custom Warwick and you may need to checkout further Nightwish where you will see more of Marko and this beast of a guitar.
He's speaking Finnish. As I understand it, he is asking the crowd to sing along with the chorus, but that is based on translations of others. If you like Marko's voice, try the tribute Nightwish did to the Pink Floyd song High Hopes. It is....amazing. Gives me chills.
Pretty much so as you've typed down :
"Jos mä soitan sen kertosäkeen niin laulatteks te kaikki mukana?" (in finnish) =
"If I play that chorus, then would you all sing along with it?" (In english)
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 💯 💥
... What a bugger of a language finnish really is, I could just only imagine how it sounds to a foreigner... 🙈
TORILLE! Marko is amazing. My favourites from Nightwish are definately the ones Marko and Floor are singing together. React to Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean from Buenos Aires
There are not many singers that can claim to have Floor as their backup vocals...
Another guy who has the rare honor is Tobias Sammet in Misplaced Among The Angels.
He’s playing a custom made Warwick double kneck with the top a bass and bottom a electric guitar. He is Finnish language.
Check him out. He has his own band now and does features and festivals.
Marco can sing anything in any genre. You might listen to him singing, "Ave Maria."
Try Nightwish Kiss While You’re Lips Are Still Red live show at Wembley 2015, awesome 😎 Marco.
I read a comment about what it must be like to say you had Floor as a backup singer.😊
For some solo marco i highly recommended his band Tarot and the song tides live really shows his versatility
If you like his singing, try their cover of High hopes from Pink floyd. He sounds amazing on that one.
Nightwish Army south Brittany France reporting.
As Marco has left Nightwish there are many opportunities to hear him sing with his new/old band, but its definitely not Nightwish.
There are plenty of songs where Marco is solo or lead. High Hopes and Kiss While Your Lips Are Still Red are highly recommended.
Try High Hopes….. soooooo goood!!! Cover of Pink Floyd, U won’t be disappointed
finland warrick bass with framous guitar
Listen to High Hopes by Nightwish. It's a tribute to the band Pink Floyd, and it is an example of Marco's singing ability.
I believe he is speaking Finnish, I also believe he was saying will you sing with me.
Thank you I thought it sounded like Vikings 😂 I couldn't think of language ✌️
Yes it's Finnish. "So, if I will play the chorus, I believe you will sing along'
@@leanngash4510 Our first language(finnish) is a helluwa bugger one to digest in so I can only imagine how it sounds to a foreigner's ear.. Especially when it comes out from the mouth of a Finn after 12 - 15 cold ones!
Uffffg 🙈 💥 😹
#1 finnish
#2 swedish
#3 english, non-official lang. but taught in schools from the early age on to every Finn. In certain parts of FIN it's more common and widely used than our second official language.
🤩👌💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
For more Marco, you need to watch the video while your lips are still red. The live version is best but you can also try watching their cover of Pink Floyd’s High Hopes.
You two share something: you are both foreigners living in Spain (If memory serves me right)
I just seen this he asked about the language irs Finish
Armée NIGHTWISH de France, avec un peu de retard, excellente réaction mon ami, bravo et merci pour mon groupe et ma chanteuse préférée. Si vous voulez entendre quelque chose qui va vous clouer, écoutez la reprise/hommage à PINK FLOYD par Marko le bassiste du groupe ( que vous venez d'écouter ) pendant le changement de costume de la chanteuse. Une chanson qui va vous ravir et vous éblouir de par son incroyable force et qui me laisse sans voix même après des centaines d'écoutes, les larmes aux bords des yeux. czcams.com/video/jXTmh8fC_RQ/video.html , essayez et je reviendrai vers vous ensuite, j'ai hâte de voir votre réaction, vous ne serez pas déçu, croyez moi. A bientôt et portez vous bien.......
he solos in HIGH HJOPES a pink floyd tribute. imho it is his best songever. gilmore even likedit. no back up singers.. it will lay you on the ground, surprise you and may become a favorite.
That's simpler than it looks. That is a double neck guitar, but the higher neck is actually a bass neck. Literally a bass-guitar. It also sounds like a piezo pickup is installed (it gives more of an acoustic-like sound compared to a standard Electric Guitar clean sound)
have you seen End of an Era live , Pink Floyd tribute "high hopes?" if not , that should be next
🇫🇮😁🇫🇮💙🪄🎼✨💯🤘
you have to do "kiss while your lips are still red" now
Nice reaction, thank you! The next one you should React to is completely sang by Marco. It's a tribute to Pink Floyd.

🇫🇮
phantom of the opera
"Eli jos mä soitan sen kertosäkeen, niin te varmaan laulatte sen mukana?"
roughly translates to "So if I play the chorus, you'll probably sing along with it?"
E: I think the instrument is a bass/guitar combo.
Every time I hear Marco sing its awesome. When I hear Floor sing I get goosebumps.
That's Floor Jansen... (female)
Never heard someone say specific that many times in a video...
marcus is a genius i the art, jansen floor > janis joplin , one the bests singer in universe
Not many people recognize Finnish.
🐕gotta love marco more marco high hopes live or kiss while your lips are still red live at wembley
