Yet again Marko proved he looks cool in whatever weird costume he wears :D
Helmstif, the Sarcastic Asianman Right!!!
+Helmstif, the Sarcastic Asianman
So true!
Aaand now I want to make somethimg like a female version of this outfit *goes totally crazy*
He's a voice millionaire.
:3 I like what you did there.
I agree. Marko Saaresto's voice is very enthralling!
Ha ha in a couple ways I'm guessing... money and definitely artistic/ musical talent!! ❤️
no doubt about it
right
I freaking love it when Marko dresses up like this. I love his costumes in Daze, Carnival of Rust, Choice Millionaire and My Dark Disquiet
Poets of the fall maybe underrated but their music has the most loyal fan base around. Always sparks the soul.
Found this band about a year ago and since then got 4 of my friends into them now just to go see them them live in concert
you got that right
@@spudsdj8384 Ever since Alan Wake I've been obsessed.
I found the song carnival of rust a few months ago and it is now one of my all time FAVORITES. But I haven't found any other of their songs that i really like. I mean, their other songs aren't horrible but the few I have heard are nowhere near the level of carnival of rust and don't make it to my playlist. But I was hoping that some fans could suggest some of their other songs that are as good as that one.
😍❤️✌️ I don't feel/ think they're underrated. I think they're just not well enough known. I think if more people world wide were aware of their music they'd also fall in love with #PoetsOfTheFall ✌️😍❤️
💜😍💙🥰💛🤩🧡
This band is so criminally underrated
When the world falls apart, these will be the songs I rebuild the world to.
His vocabulary is 100%
he didn't write this
@@timelessclassics3859 He actually did

Yess. Finally I chanced upon someone who voiced my opinion of POTF. Their vocabulary is smashing indeed. It is quite a major achievement to be able to fuse music with lyrics and bring out a masterpiece EVERY TIME! And the way these gods hit a crescendo is mind blowing.
@@timelessclassics3859 The information you are referring to is for the music video. Saku Perintö is the writer, director and producer for the music video as stated in the description.
Marko Saaresto wrote the song. Check the description of this video: czcams.com/video/jZI98ziy3kI/video.html
His singing, acting, dancing and facial expressions are always 10/10 honestly. Genius entertainer! Always got a voice like butter!
Whatever Marko is wearing, always looks inspiration to me.
How come I didn't listen to this masterpiece all these years? Where have I been?
Ain’t just rappers that got flow, is it?
POTF just blows me away. Thanks for the music. More than you know.
And remember, old guard. It doesn't matter when you fell for these poets. We should celebrate more fans of the fall, whether they bought Signs of Life on 19 January 2005, just heard of them an hour ago or any time in between.
Soon as he starts with "So put a laquor on your hunger" gets me everytime. Love this group.
As long as you are living, you have lots of options - hence "Choice Millionaire"
The second verse feels like rapping. Also getting some industrial vibes from this. Great song!
this band is so much underrated.

you don't know anything about music .
@@alivojdani6278 But they ARE underrated
@@Nathan4564566 i dont need others validation to enjoy good music! thus there rating is irrelevant
@@nawnaw4709 *their
people only say something is underrated when they think it DESERVES even more publicity because its so good
Потрясающая песня
Every song should be a single! None of their songs fall flat, compared to other bands. Best band out there by far!
that ending reference to "dying to live" felt perfect
This one really caused a light bulb moment. Such an inspiration to think of yourself as a choice millionaire. Even if i cannot just do whatever I want, be it due to lack of means or ability, I still can choose from a million options how to continue, which way to go, which door to open. Really liberating. Love it!
This exactly! Ever since the first time I heard it, this song has become a kind of anthem for me. It's literally saved my life, and it helps me any time I feel stuck or hopeless. I bought a Hopecatcher necklace (the silver feather on a chain Marko hands to the blonde girl at 3:24 that gives her the strength to go back and free the others), and I wear it every single day to remind me that I don't have to feel stuck or helpless, and that I have the power to choose the direction of my life. For a seemingly innocuous little 80's-inspired synthpop song, this song has had a major impact on me, and I'm forever thankful that it (and the whole band!) found its way into my life.
@@whitefantom hope you still listening😉✌.
Um..... That is NOT what this song is about.
Quite the opposite.
It's a satire of post capitalism greed
"Choice millionaire" means you're the cream of the crop of all your "fellow millionaires"
So build your castles IN THE AIR
You're a choice millionaire
Listen to "False Kings"
2021 here. Just wanted a glimpse into the future.
Everytime I hear a new POTF song for the first time, I get goosebumps from head to toe...this guy...
xxxAngelikaxxx
Is it a rap rock?
Dwaipayan Ghosh
I will slap you.
Marco looks like he's gotta liberate a concentration camp at 11, but got a thrash ball game at 12.

Markku Pöllä You really had to rewrite my entire comment just to correct one thing? Don't be a douche. You could have just corrected my misspelling of his name.
Markku Pöllä HAHAHAHAHA I've never been called a window licker before. Thanks for the new insult, sir.
+Connor Quintana you are welcome.
Well that entertained me, thanks guys. Can nobody enjoy a song without ripping on someone just for making a typo in the comments? :P
"You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."
His facial expressions are on point in this video~
Yep, also check out 'dazed'. His expressions are amazing in that song as well.
Great voice, great actor, great poet - all in one man.
Those lyrics ain't lyrics, it's poetry
Yes!
Old Gods of Asgard brought me here
I’m not old, but i’m here!
Me too omg i love potf
Found this band through control, but absolutely became a fan
His mimic and his voice - best combination ever
I just bought the Hopecatcher necklace. I can't wait to get it!
I hope it works for you
@@torpmorp1324 Thank you ^.^ I'm so excited
Poets of the fall ,the only band that never dispointed me ! you rule guys \m/
I LOVE Poets of the Fall, and I LOVE Marko Saaresto's voice and his acting ability!
Kenuda
Is it a rap rock?
Dwaipayan Ghosh Not usually. This song could possibly be considered a rap rock but, the rest aren't.
Again... Every moment when Poets of the Fall release something new, i feel that i won millions of dolars. I'm loving everything: melody, vocal, costumes, atmosphere, acting, the way of making video. My hunger is growing. You guys have incredible delicious souls!
Agreed.
These guys are so fricking talented. Marko is so animated and expressive. This song gets me so pumped. Love it.
marko's outfit and acting :O...amazing
I am constantly amazed by each new story the Poets decide to project, filled with so much social commentary. A great song, clever lyrics open to interpretation and once again an intense, strange yet beautiful music video. Keep bringing the magic, you incredible artists!
Django Makepeace You took away my comments mate! Incredible!!!
He is so sassy!!!!!
So true, I love all their videos because of the story within the song that makes it all the more special. Btw, for now, the number of likes to your comment is exactly equal to the number of dislikes of this video. I think you made them come back ;)
Marko is great vocalist and actor as well (Y)
in this song his vocals at chorus are auto tuned
even if its autotuned its still good and it fits the song i think
This is *not* autotune. Simply layering an effect onto a sound is not called autotune.
+Mikhail Cazi no vocals are tuned at chorus. This doesn't sound similar to layering. This tuner is used when you are tired after rec vocals and they are not still in the key.
you are right
I've listened to this song a thousand times, it still gives me chills
I wanna get married with Marko's voice!! ❤❤ So awesome!!
@The Sentinel Of Abyss by marrying the body said voice comes out of (O_o)???
To Poets Of The Fall
It was a nice touch to put a piece of Dying To Live in the last bit of the song. Cheers and thank you for this masterpiece.
Stumbled because of carnival of rust because of the very interesting clip picture. This band has the substance, each viedo have a deep message. Amazing!
Man, he *really* loves putting his hands to work, doesn't he?
jokin :) I love you man.
I discovered this band today and I'm addicted. What a wonderful band!!!
Jordan BR check the “making of” this video... they’re all working and having fun at the same time. I’m envious
I have never seen someone look so good in black lipstick
Today, when politics and society are telling us what we need to do, how we should be and how we should not, this music is highly important. Poets of the Fall, thank you for helping us to free our minds for a long time.
1:50 That second verse hits so damn hard!
Grateful to my boyfriend introducing me to this band, such an epic set of songs and not a bad one amongst them.
I've discovered POTF a few hours ago! They are amazing! Dare to say they remind me one of my all time favourite bands: Ultravox!
My mp3 player has been playing this every morning on my way to work, and boy, does it amp me up
such an awesome video with a strong message
i’ve literally never heard a POTF song or seen one of their videos that i haven’t loved!
There's still not a single PotF song that I don't love.
Good job.
The tons of work they put into their videos is just awesome!
I don't know this band! I am so glad that my girlfriend has shown me them. Now i am a fan. What great music, what a great voice!
MARKO IS AN ASWER TO : Why are these video songs so cool?
Dude I just learned this band's name came from the fact that their first song was bassed on a poem and written for the fall of max payne. Thats a great beginning for a great bad. So cool.
His voice... Wow! Makes any song so beautiful to listen to
I found this band there about 10 minutes ... fantastic music , hard to find bands like. Awesome
Outclass music reminds me of glorious 80/90 pop era brilliant work.
I love the fact that this band is staying true to it's soul.
This band is one of the best if not the best bands in existence at the moment. Believe it or not but the amount of thought and effort that these guys put into their album covers, music videos, lyrics and instrumentations is simply AMAZING
Such underrated artist they are! They deserve a lot more! They are much more talented than many top chart singers out there. huhhh :'(
Abhinaf singh True that!
I'm pretty sure a lot of these videos double as excuses to wear fun costumes
but i like wearing scary costumes as fun to scare people
i'm pretty sure you're not wrong
i always think the same lol
Hehe
Mostly Marko 😁
The way he says "choice millionaire" Damn 😻❤
Lyrical genius... Can't say much more than that.
Speaking of which, I can't find the closing lyrics anywhere. Not even on the official PoTF website. Been trying to peace them together but because of accents, echos, and such I have no clue how close I actually am. I could be WAY off, not sure. Here's as far as I've gotten;
"Tell me this, would you miss it
try and open up the face again,
to see it's you,
and wondering where you've been
not where you're going to find yourself
before the night is through
tell me this is it lonely in the
shadow of a masquerade
or a life you hide behind.
And what's the deal with your reasons to run away and leave your feelings in the city lights."
OMG, I figured it was Dying to Live but wasn't sure. I only searched for the last part of the lyrics, because they appeared on screen. I can confirm that they actually say;
"What's the deal with your reasons to run away, and leave your feelings in the city lines (lights?)"
Dying to Live did come up in the results when I did the search, but the lyrics are actually different so I wasn't completely sure.
"What's the deal with your reasons to run away and let your feelings leave you undefined"
***** ... Indeed. I want to say "City Lights" because he says that many times during the song, but there's an "N" in there that is pretty heavy on the echo.
Always wondered about that part, catching things from hear is really hard, I once did it to several songs which had no lyrics at the time, but gave up as it took a lot of time going back once and again.
Always!!!
Carving the fantasies and wild thoughts into digital reality, that's how these videos are made by POTF. I think the same way.
No one can stop loving this band...but the song is not up to the mark at all..
the guys never disappoint. whenever they say they are releasing a new song I cant wait to see the visual interpretation of that song. each one is different but with the same style we associate with this amazing band. may they continue to make beautiful music.xox
The giant Captain should have destroy the 5 guards with just one hand and keep playing keyboard with the other one.
Omg yes! 😂😂😂
It's the best clip in last several years. Thanks to the camera crew, thanks to Marko, Olli, Jaska, Jari, Jani and Markus. And special thanks to Saku Perinto!
I have a feeling this has some subtle connection to the 'Carnival of Rust' video/plotline. Especially when the girl walks up to the screen (?) with Marko on it. Both the videos have those dark undertones as well as a glint of hope. There has to be some overlap.
Absolutely, definitely my favourite song of all time. I've played it so often that even my parents like it now 😂
Lisa Welsh the exact thing happen with my husband, lol
Lisa Welsh my hostel mates "suffered" the same fate too 😎😂
Thanks to my son, me too!
This man is amazing..
Ghost should do a song with them. Just saying.
DUDE. DO YOU KNOW HOW AMAZING THAT WOULD BE
Haha, those guards at the end are just standing there, not giving a fuck if they escape.
cheers to poets of the fall! the only band that never disappointed me in music, and has grown with me throughout the years, helped me through love and sickness and suffering and happiness. I just wish I could wish you in America or I could go there... lol.
10 years along and still making hits!
Love this song.
Marko and his music is way too gorgeous!!
i cant but fall in love with every single song
Reminds me of George Orwell's 1984
Their music has some magic, for sure.
Anyone else just LOVES armoured Marko?
I love CZcams for suggesting this band to me! I have YET to find a song by them that I don't LOVE!,! I feel like I have been missing out for years! Glad that I discovered them! Finally. Lol.😇
This song makes me feel like a choice millionaire.
This video reminds me of "Never Close Our Eyes" music video by Adam Lambert! I think the concept in both videos are mostly the same. They're both fantastic💙
I'm sincerely hoping that, one day, we get a solid, coherent novel, combining all the surreal shit going down in their videos into one fucked up(in a good way) story :D
haha true
hopefully
Anyone have a problem with my suggesting Randy Feltface read it?
My God this is quality Music, they are real musicians. Instant fascination.
Choice millionare
Cars in the night, cut through the mist
Baby suns for eyes, diamonds on your wrist
Twist in the scheme, a permeating theme
A violin crescendo
Dark violet skies over seas of lead
Hard violent fights, red sun will set
Like a rivulet, like a tear beget
A clear innuendo
Silence of the mind ever deafening
Rain on the roof ever prattling
Straddling truth for the pain you gain for pain
Some bill of rights
Daring getaways, steamy masquerades
Famine of all wars, whores and escapades
Jack of spades in silk brocades
Velvet nights in city lights
It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire
Because no one needs
Any more confessions
Shadows cast without a streak of fear
Moments past, held so dear
A lock of hair, a touch of lip
A lashing whip
Subliminal love for the ones you hate
LOL as I abbreviate
Alleviate if you can relate to the pink slip
Of love unzipped
Minutes burning till seconds pop
Silhouettes dancing till the curtains drop
Stop before you lose your mojo
Your fear of heights
Hot passion flares every pipe dream
Concussion, blindness of a regime
A scream incites, the air ignites
The city lights
It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire
So put a lacquer on your hunger
Parade the sky that you're under
Without heedless impressions
No one needs more confessions
It's a wide wide world out there
And life can be a love affair
Or a cage of sheer despair
You’re a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there
You can travel in your easy chair
So build your castles in the air
You’re a choice millionaire...
Wow, that song just blew my mind! It's freakin awesome!!!!
My second favourite song from Poets next to Lift
These guys would fit in the 80s or 90s!
whatever the conditions may be ,will always love poets of the fall
Поэты как всегда на высоте. Непревзойденно!

@@bostonianful Add Mirror's Edge and Watch Dogs 3/Legion to the list.
@@izzfitri6888 of course. but i think it fits with cyberpunk 2077 above all, because in that game you make choices and it has a dystopian feel to it.
