  • Hello sweethearts,
    I love the Nightwish family. I enjoyed Marco Showcasing a strong vocal performance. A subtle delicate vocal with a hint of grit and strength. Nice to see Floor lending her vocals which added a feminine flair!
    Hope you enjoy it :)

    ABOUT…
    I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
    Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

    Marko is my Totem animal! Have met Him several times, over the Years. Last one after His solo gig in Tuska 2019, in Helsinki 2,5moths ago! Really and mean really nice man! Always joking and little twinkle in His eyes! One of the best people in world to take couple beers with. Chatting and make world better place! For the record: Not beers anymore, becouse Marko quit drinking allready, almost ten years ago! 👍

      So aptly put! They are basically what would be called an all-star cast in opera, where each and every one down the list is a master capable of running their own show any time. Some of the "real" all-star bands in rock and pop do not hold up, imo, and the benefit of flawless cohesion among NIGHTWISH members may be the essential element!

    I met Marko and Troy after a show in Denver. My friend said she would love to meet them someday, so I said why not tonight? And I dragged my panicked nervous friend to the backstage door. I went inside, and I saw them hanging out while Floor was doing a meet n greet. I asked them if they could come out and say hi to some people outside, and they were like hell yeah. Better than being bored waiting for Floor to be done. Those guys were some of the chillest, funniest dudes I've met. They're like the Dwarves at Bilbo's house. Always happy. Always with smiles. If you don't have a smile, they will give you one. My friend was shy, and I told them she liked them, but she's over there being starstruck omg nervous, so they went to her, and hugged her, and dragged her into our circle. We all laughed and took pics. Floor came out for a bit and waved at everyone, and one of the roadies pretty much dragged Marko and Troy onto the bus. You want to make fans for life? Cuz that's how you make fans for life :D

      I totally agree. I have not met them yet, but I believe a good interaction is key to building your fan base. Nothing worse than some guy who thinks he's a rock star for nothing. But everything to someone who's met that rock star and knows that we put them there. Kip Winger and Bret Michaels are 2 that come to mind. 🤘

      @Shotgun Mouthwash I love when bands do stuff like this. Little sister-in-law loved Deadsy, so we went to see them the first time at the Troc in Philly. Didn't know they were having a meet & greet after their set and stayed for MSI's set. Afterwards, we ended up running into someone who saw us with her and her best friend's Deadsy shirts on and came over and asked if we got to meet them. We said we didn't realize that we could have, so he went and said he was their manager and to follow him. We were a bit eh, feels sketchy... but followed him anyway as there was a bunch (me, my gf/wife, her little sister, her parents, and her sister's best friend) of us. We find out he actually was their manager. He leads us out to the bus and gets everyone to come off the bus to meet us. Sister-in-law's friend breaks down crying from joy and her reaction ended up being in some of the footage on one of their music videos. They seemed pleasantly surprised I had come from near Pittsburgh to see them. Their manager would remember us when we've gone to see the band again and make sure we would get to see the band.
      I miss being young and not having mortgages and stuff and being able to go to concerts. Oldest is now wanting to go to concerts, so I'll need to figure out how to juggle that now too. Took them to their first one last winter down in DC as it was the closest place that wasn't already sold out to see the kid she wanted to see. Was pleasantly surprised by the opening act of Field Medic and Cavetown wasn't bad either. Not my normal cup of tea, but enjoyable none-the-less. Kid loved it and has been trying to figure out how to afford Metallica tickets now... *lol*

      @@SonnyThomasShow1 Kip is actually pretty awesome. Real chill. He let one of my bassist buddies play his bass, and he was impressed, so part way through his set he called my buddy up on stage to play with him. For my part, I happened to have a 9V battery on me, and his mic sounded like shit, so I hot swapped his wireless while my buddy was getting ready. "Anyone can play bass haha. But we'd be nowhere without our roadies." said Kip. You wanna make a fan for life? Cuz that's how you do it.

    Floor and Marco are a great match. Their voices suit each other and neither of them mind it when the other one is at the center of attention. They clearly like each other, and it makes them so much more wonderful to experience.
    The song is written by Marco, before Floor joined the band, but every song is at least as good as it was with the singer, who recorded it originally. She's awesome, and so is he.

    There is nothing you can say good enough for this band. The greatest female vocalist on earth. A brilliant vocalist that is the main and excellent bassist. A lead guitarist that can make the guitar jump through hoops when the music requires it. A drummer that can keep that beat moving for as long as he wants without ever missing a beat. A Troy (he is unique so his name is his title) who can play instruments that god hasn't invented yet and last, but definitely not least, a keyboard player and absolute genius that writes this music, these stories, these tales of fantasy - and makes them real.

    @myrkvarg Před 4 lety +3

    The amazing dynamics between the three singers in Nightwish is astonishing. Floor, of course, has the amazing and versatile range, as well as the ability to sing all the different styles, then you have Marco with his powerful, theatrical heavy metal head voice, but also the soft, fairytale-esque bard quality, and then you have Troy, the calm and laid back storyteller, who when he sings sounds like he has sung lullabies all his life. A golden trio in a perfect band, with astonishing musicianship, and the composing and songwriting by Tuomas Holopainen has no equal on this earth.
    This song shows all the sides of Marco and catches the wonderful chemistry between him and Floor Jansen perfectly, how they complete each other on stage, and it always leaves me with a feeling of warmth deep inside the core of my heart and soul whenever I hear their voices compliment each other.
    Love that you chose to react to this, dear Rebecca. And as always, your voice and accent are like honey to my ear, I could easily hear you read or sing the phonebook! Lots of love from the Elf-Pirate

    Marco was a great singer in 1986, when I first heard him. Tarot, Wings Of Darkness, one of the best records ever done, along with the second Tarot record, Follow Me Into Madness. And, after over 30 years, nothing has changed, he still is a great singer, among his other skills. I own every record he has sung, maybe I like his style :-)

      If you like this folky type sound you'll probably like I Want My Tears back or Alpenglow. It adds in their rock/metal side while keeping the Celtic/folk feel and without going too crazy. If you're up for a long song and wanna see a little bit heavier without them going to their all out metal side, Ghost Love Score is one of their biggest hits. I suggest watching it with Tarja first, and then with this lady, Floor so that you can appreciate all the nice stylistic changes she added :) If you end up not liking one song keep looking. They are diverse and full of surprises. and definitely do some wikipedia. Tons of backstory. Welcome to the Nightwish family :)

    One of my favourite Nightwish songs and really showcases Marco's clean vocals. And if you get to have Floor Jansen as a BACKING singer, you know you must be doing something right!!! And this live version is beautifully arranged, somewhat different from the studio arrangement.

    Floor´s voice works like a blanket during their vocal harmonisations in this song. She was also there to support Marko´s singing of higher notes, because his clean head voice is entirely gone (or almost entirely) after a throat surgery that went badly - tonsils removal, I think. He was still able to regain most of his vocal abilities.

    • @EricManktelow
      @EricManktelow Před 4 lety +34

      I believe he had a vocal polyp removed and regretted it because the doctor said his voice would be back to normal within a few weeks and he almost lost the ability to talk and had to relearn singing because his old voice was gone.
      He'll never sing like he used to but luckily he's found his 'new' voice whilst in Nightwish and it's perfect still, just different.
      It's also great to see Floor (who let's be honest can sing anything) will happily leave him to lead and she'll improve the song by being a very minimalist background singer.
      Can't imagine a less humble person letting their ego go and let someone else have the limelight.

    Great reaction, this song was indeed written by Marko himself. Also a noteworthy point about Marko, is that his voice was damaged in 1995 due to a throat surgery, so his vocals aren't quite as perfect as they used to be, but still amazing!

    Marco is fantastic! Everyone always fawns over Floor (deservedly so) but Marco is so solid, both as the main singer and as the support singer. He harmonizes so well with whoever he sings with...Floor, Annette and Tarja (also when he performs guest vocals in other bands). I've said it before and I'll say it again...Marco is the glue that holds this band together...if it wasn't for him, Nightwish would have disbanded when Tarja was let go. He helped Tuomas get through the rough times and also helped Annette and Floor when they joined the band. Also, he has a GREAT sense of humor as he shows in the video. I can't say enough good things about this guy. Cheers!

    The Islander
    (lyrics)
    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

And it shows Marco's capabilities - it is just amazing. Play it as a good night night lullaby, and I can assure you, that you will fall asleep with a big big smile a happy thoughts 😴
