LYRICS THE ISLANDER:
An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With seawinds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world`s unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all:
An island of the universe
Now his love`s a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
So long ago
So long ago
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago
So long ago

❤️❤️❤️
♥ I Love You
Hi Floor ❤️. How's Marko doing?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are great
The horizon isn't the only one crying
I want my tears back
@@dontwatchdominionfilmonyou2433 We all do, bro. But we left them behind long ago...
CRYYYYING FOR HIIIIIIM WAS FULLY WORTH THE TEARS
Right!? Weeping here 😭
For real...
He was a huge asset to the band. He will be missed! 🤘
For a while..... but I got a feeling that he will be back.
Come on,, he’s not even retired, sick or dead, there’ are some possibilities he might come back
The Virus has sent many of us with depression climbing the walls. He needs some down time to re-group and get some balance. We just need to leave Marco alone and support his decision to take some time to not deal with the Music Industry.
@@leemichaels406 he only said he will be missed, and as long as he is out of nightwish he will be at least to the wast majority of the fans. No one said he should defy his health.
@@MsStecarl I think you mis-understood my post. But it's all good.
What did Legolas say in LOR? “I will not speak of it. For me the grief is still too near.”
Yeah, that. 💔
I feel you
Marko the metal Gandalf will be missed but the memories stay.
Where is he. Did he leave the band?
@@doyehager1399 he did
@@doyehager1399 Because of health reasons and he needed to do some self discovery.
Perfect definition of him
And just like Gandalf, he may yet be back, stronger than before :)
Can't imagine anyone else singing this.
@Camille Lo yeah, let's wait and hope, but sure we all will miss him a lot
@Camille Lo That's fair and a good point. As much as I love Troy his voice is different from Marko's. Only time will tell.
I can actually, I'd love to see Alan Doyle (of Great Big Sea) do a cover. I'd be hard pressed to think of another rock/metal vocalist who would do it justice, but the right celtic folk singer, especially a Newfoundlander, could do it justice.
I can imagine that they'll get a session bass player and having Troy sing this one. Not the same, but I think I'd be fine with it
There is one person that comes to mind...Jarkko Ahola. He is very skilled and has a similar tone to his voice. He'll never be able to REPLACE Marko (nobody can), but I think he could do a good job. Cheers!
I only found Nighwish during the pandemic. This was immediately one of my favorite tracks. I hope he finds peace and that the rest of the band are able to help him and each other through the dark times. Peace to all of them.
Me too. And I think I've heard everything from them 20x over. Really wish I got to see them live with Marco
@@shortstuff780 Same, it intanstly became my favourite band, and Marco was a huge part of it, to the point I got the ticket to their concert the moment they set a date, I hope the world let us see him and he gets a farewell tour
Alot to catch up with stranger, enjoy their art, it is out of this world
What pandemic?
"Floor Jansen is my backing vocalist"
We will miss you Marko, I wish all the best to you
is that what he says at some point ? There is a bit of Finnish at some point ?
@@Pomaufour No, the fans all say he needs a t-shirt that says "Floor Jansen is my backing vocalist." A rough translation of the Finnish bit is: "So if I sing the chorus, will you sing with me?" Yeah! "You'll sing?" YEAH! "Okay, let's do it!"
Haha my thought exactly - how good do you need to be to get Floor Jansen to sing backing vocals for you? 🙂
The Islander ❤️🖤 Marko. We’ll miss you
Come back if it’s ever possible. We’ll be here, waiting
Kkkkkk xia brasil
Oh fuck, this one hit home. Marko, the Nightwish Army will wait for you and we will welcome you back whenever you're ready.
And if you're never ready to come back, we'll still love you, so do what feels good and right for you.
And we (I at least) will care for you even if you don't return.
the entrance was paid to see them all, it does not seem fair that he does not fulfill his commitment, after fulfilling his commitments with the fans .. that he does what he wants.
@@rebelwithacausecauseeffect6076 - I think the virtual concert was one thing he had promised to do, at the original date in March. When it was postponed it became a new appointment and something that is outside of his earlier promises.
Yes
Marko and Floor sing so wonderfully together. I hope they will still sing together on occasion.
SCW: have you heard them sing Ave Maria together (just the two, not with Nightwish band)
I consider this one of the greatest moments in rock history.
Know one can argue with you Chris
Except it's folk. LOL
You dont listen to alot then
"I'm not gonna cry"
...Said I, already with tears in my eyes
Don’t forget he want his tears back.
@@EmpileR that made me cry... I had tickets to their April 20 show... Now I'll never get the chance seeing him with nightwish... 😭
@@ella_emayjee9403 I do have tickets for this summer and it would have been my first Nightwish concert with Floor Jansen. Yep, took me some time to buy it. At least i saw him with Anette but as far as I remember they didn’t play The Islander song on Wacken. Anyway, feel you.
@@EmpileR I just got into Nightwish in Jan. 2020... Thankfully there are videos online from Wacken and Tampere and from long ago
I want My Tears Back
You'll be missed Marko..
?
@@guitar4you124 He quit Nightwish
@@guitar4you124 he left and not comming back...
What happened... He's leaving?
@@ammarshah01 yeah, check out his own channel and see what he wrote.
One of the most fantastic and haunting ballads ever. Those Celtic vibes are pure magic. The only thing missing here is the hilarious "weasels" intro and the translation of the "Will you sing?" section. Everyone always asks what Marko says there.
Somewhere there, in a parallel branch of this universe, a Nightwish concert just started right this moment and Marko is walking towards the microphone, getting ready to join Floor and bringing an entire stadium to eargasm. And Tuomas and the othes smile, as a storm of music is about to unleash :D
These songs won't be the same without him. Thanks for this magic, Marko.
Ждём возвращения...
His voice is a mix of cool silk, rich home made butterscotch and freezing aquavit. Wrapped up in ancient velvet and applied to my soul. Which he always manages to croon out of my body.
I'm not complaining.
Thank you for this coment!
That is the best possible description I have ever heard of Marko's voice. Love it!
There are just two of them left... The golden cast from the beginning of 2000's...
Marko might have left but he will forever be a member of the Nightwish Army.
NW Army is here 🤘🤘🔥🔥 Marko we love you so much 💞💞❤❤
Marko, the soul of Nightwish!
I can't agree anymore!
Thank you Nightwish and Marko. This was my wedding song.
🥺
Todos vamos sentir falta dele. Músico fantástico, vocal maravilhoso
Dói, né?!
Underrated album, phenomenal track, unforgettable artist.
Our heart goes out to you, Marko. Stay safe, Rock-Santa.
Underrated album? As far as I know it was their best selling one :)
@@kalas5264
I don't know, man. Do you remember the reaction online? Everyone was rushing to hate on it because of Tarja's absence. I'm personally more of an Imaginaerum fan, but still. DPP was an incredible and unrightfully criticised album.
my favorite album.
Beautiful soul Marko❤️.. wish you all the happiness.. still can't believe I won't be witnessing you sing Endlessness live.
Let's have a spark of hope that he'll play live in some form again and 'cover' Endlessness.
I believe he said he will still play the virtual concert March 12th, last chance to them all together
@@moesko I believe he said he will still play the virtual concert March 12th.
I got tickets for the show on December 2020, but covid happened. It was gonna be my first Nightwish show after more than a decade listening to their music. And now Marko is gone....my heart is broken.
The Islander is one of my all time favourite songs. It's so beautiful and powerful. I'll miss Marko. He has such a great voice and brought so much good to the band. He's the man that inspired me to get into the Bass in the first place.
I wish him all the best in his reinventing. I hope he comes out the other side stronger than ever. Whatever form that takes, whether he's back with Nightwish, Tarot, or not even making music at all.
Love you Marko, Keep your head up.
This makes my heart hurt a little.
Breaks mine💔🥺
@@lea-anne9133 it's been months and I'm still not over it so... yeah.
Quickest I've ever clicked on a video in my life.
That incredible ease with which he sings the chorus an octave higher is a singing masterclass all by itself.
Me: Not gonna cry, not gonna cry, not gonna cry.
We will always support you Marko.
When I saw Marko on the video thumbnail my heart is broken. You'lle be missed.
We will miss you Marko! May you recover and be well! 💙
He's so much Jethro Tull... shame nobody praised him enough.
Dearest Marko! I wish him nothing but the very best in this world! His stage charisma and heavently beautiful voice will be dearly missed in Nightwish's world! 💕💞
My life’s never gonna be the same with resignation of Marko Hietala
We all are going to miss him. I hope He'll perform with NW some day again.
Marko, if you ever see this: Know that my heart cries for the missed chance at finally seeing you. The last tour you were here, my son was born. I've been aching to be in the rarified air of The Islander with you. I hope nothing but the best for your future, and was so happy to see recognition with your talent in Masked Singer as well, because you have a beautiful mind, powerful presence, and legendary talent. Take care~
Wow...... it's really true. You don't appreciate someone fully untill they're gone. Nobody will sing this as he did. Hope he's in a better place now, enjoying life
Our albatross is literally flying 🥺 love you Marco! ❤️
My heart is with you Marco, Nightwish ❤️
Seeing 'Nightwish is...' without Marco listed is so awkward. Thank you Marco, best wishes.
Thank you, Marko, for the beautiful music these last 20 years, we will miss you, but wish you well ❤️
As a Newfoundlander, an islander, I love this! I am sorry you cut out the chat at the start. Its always a laugh to listen to Marko call the rest of the band "weasels"...
Yeah, true, the other video is much louder and the chat he gives the audience is really fun.
I am living in St.John’s now, I feel you
@@maihuynh1057 Finest kind!
Just discovered this band today. From NL as well.
Watching nightwish live was my biggest dream. A dream that’ll never come true... because Nightwish without Marko... idk
In 2012 I had tickets to see Nightwish with Anette Olzon and it ended up being Floor instead. I'll miss Marko but I'm confident the band will be cable to surprise us with somebody else with great talent. I also had tickets for 2020 sin Buenos Aires suspended by the pandemic. Hoping todo be greatly surprised soon.
The Islander is one of my favourite songs from Nightwish, especially because of Marco's voice. I hope he will return to the band later.
Marko was my inspiration and what pulled me to learn playing the Bass, and this song, specially, showed me that even with a "gritty" voice, you can sing so beatifully like this. Knowing he might not come back does hit me hard, since I started following Nightwish for him.
Thanks Marko, you will be dearly missed, and we all hope to see you back
Gave me always chills, give me always chills and will always give me chills.
Never clicked so fast
Marko will be sorely missed. ❤️ Wishing him nothing but light and good health. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Marko please make your last tour all over the world🙏🏻 I don’t wanna die before watching you with Nightwish.
Not me crying because I'll never get to witness this :'(
One of my favorites of all time!! Hope you guys are staying safe and well amidst this pandemic and all ❤️
the heart and soul of nightwish
"While Your Lips Are Still Red", "The Islander" and "Endlessness" are the Holy Trinity of Marko Hietala! I miss him so much!!!
What about high hopes?
@@cristiana774it’s a Pink Floyd song
@@Samuel-ut7mj I know. But it became his when he sang it at the end of an era
My favorite. ❤ How's your heart, everyone? Stay safe & take care of your mental health.
We love you, Marko! ❤❤❤ Thank you so much!
Such an outstanding performance by an outstanding person.
I tried not to cry, but I did.
To our incredible Marko, we are all sailing right behind you, holding our arms out to support you with love.
You are amazing. Truly.
I love this song so much. I don't cry because he left, It's the right for him. I thank him for the beautiful songs, this will be stay forever. 💙
MARKO...I already miss him. Best wishes for him.💖✌
FOREVER ❤️
I heard of nightwish much to late. At the moment Marko left the band. This song is so incredible. I can not explained it in words. I hope I can go to Finland once and see him preform. I hope to see more of this great man with a great voice
I'm not crying, you are
Beautiful song from a beautiful man! Take care, Marko. 💙
Pristine Quality, what a gift 😍😍😍 Marko Hietala is drinking mead in Sovngarde sitting on his divine throne contemplating the faith of us mere mortals. 🐱👤🎶💕
Best Nightwish song since Tarja has gone. Now that he has gone, I hope the best
The guy with the glasses at 0:34 is clearly the biggest Nightwish fan of all time - he's at Hartwall Arena 2012, Wacken 2013, Tampere 2015...
The one with a beard?
Que Saudades Sentiremos de Você no Nightwish Marko ♥ Fique Bem !
Sentiremos saudades, mas estimo melhor para ele.
Thanks so much!!! We're all gonna miss that guy a lot...
I mam just crying. Wish You all the best Marco, thank You for making music such meaningfull to my live.
Just thank You all Nightwish. You are one of the most important bands in my live. Much many love for You!
I love to hear him speak Finnish. He’s a vocal god and always will be.
Thank You Marko!!
As much as I will miss him in NW, as much I wish him all the best in the world! I think it is so good he concentrate on his health first! If there is life; -There's hope!!
All the best to Marko!!
Oh, Marko... Thank you so much. For everything.
Goodbye our dear beard king😭🖤
I just hope the Man knows how much happines , joy , awe he gifted to humanity.
This is truly the end of an era 😢
Marko Hietala! There will depressed times for all of us. But you were the medication for some of us. Please don’t leave🙏🏻
Hi from America! My 6 year old loves this song. We enjoy listening to Nightwish together ❤
Legendary
Fens,from,indonesia
We love you Marko!! You will be deeply missed 😪💜💪🎤🎸
You are my favorite Marko. I will miss you. Please take care of yourself. And if ever you feel the need to grace us with your presence again... I'll be waiting.
A man playing his guitar and singing solo for thousands of fans, just standing there enjoying the moment.... than the others come softly blending in, perfectly harmonizing, all loving what they are doing together....I will miss Marko so much and hope he will return somewhere in the future so I can see him perform live for the first time in my life. Take your time and be well, Marko. Greetings from the Netherlands.
I have a feeling that unlike with Tarja, there will simply be no replacing Marco. It doesn't matter who Tuomas hires on to play bass or to sing his parts, Nightwish will never be the same without him.
@Anna 20 y.o - check my vidéó I love your description.
Marko ❤️❤️ we'll miss you, come back as soon as you can ❤️
I feel endlessly grateful i got to experience him singing this live ❤❤ he's amazing!
Let us always remember Nightwish with this line-up and how many happiness they brought to many of us!
This is always beautiful ! Floor's backing vocals are perfect without stealing the spotlight, and this is the best hommage the band could've given to Marko.
I think I can safely say all our hearts are with him and with you.
Stay amazing.
You will be missed marko. Nightwish thank you for uploading this video
I know it feels hard to lose Marco. But we old fans felt the same thing with Tarja back in 2005 and you know what... i am still here.
the only one who can sing justice to this song
O how i miss this man, and the perfect match with Floor in so many songs
We love you Marko, and wish nothing but your health and happiness. Thank you for all the music and memories you have brought us over these long years.❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an amazing guitarist he will not be forgotten
Thank you, Marko, we'll miss you a lot 💔
This is beyond question the BEST version of this beautiful song. Thank you Marko and Nightwish for such joy!
May peace, joy and happiness be yours, Marko. Thank you for being such an intricate part in making Nightwish such a beloved band. You're incredible and will be sorely missed. Blesses to you, friend.
this guy is fantastic, he was the soul in nightwish
Nightwish concert with Marko Hietala was at the top of my bucket list. I don’t wanna dream again :(
