Marko is an amazing musician and I'm sure he's not 'channeling' Dickinson or anyone else. Marko's musicality always shines through and you only really get that when the singer and/or musician totally loses themselves in the song - and if you're there as a musician, it can really only be you in that moment, there's no space to be trying to mimic or sound like anyone else. The moment that happens, the authenticity gets lost. If he's channeling anyone, he's channeling Marko.

He's back in music and that's a great thing. 🔥🤘🔥

Performance was the 2005 Helsinki concert (End of an Era DVD) . Last show on the Once album tour, and last NW show for Tarja, she was off stage for a wardrobe change. Song #8 in an 18 song set. Marko absolutely kills it, and Emppu with the awesome guitar work, a tasteful tribute, to Gilmour's original work. Check out more from this show, try Marko and Tarja singing together, on their cover of "Phantom of the Opera", and the NW original "The Siren".

There is just something about Marko's voice. First of all, he lives the song he is singing, you can see it in his gestures and movements. Secondly, that voice is so powerful, and at the same time, wraps you in a blanket of comfort and familiarity, even when he screams. (well, Master Passion Greed may be an exception to that). He is a master of his craft. If you want to explore Marko's talents outside of Nightwish I would suggest that you take a look at the band he fronts, Tarot, and the song "Tides." Live version from "Undead Indeed".

This was not my first Nightwish track to hear, that was Islander, loved it and Marko's voice, so, bought the album Dark Passion Play, however just could not get on with Annette's voice Forward a few years or so and a metal singer came on Beste Zangers here (I'm in Belgium) and she started singing, then with them saying she was the lead singer with Nightwish and I thought that voice is not what I heard on DPP, so dipped my toe in some more up to date Nightwish and fell in love with the band again. Now been to see them live twice and hope that they come back to the stage soon. Gelsenkirchen was an awesome venue for a Nightwish concert 🤘🤘🤘

One of the things that make this performance even more powerful to me is the fact that this was the last show with their original singer, Tarja. There was a lot of turmoil within the band at that time, and at the end of that show, Tarja was going to be handed her dismissal letter, a fact that was known by all members of the band (except her). Thus, this particular show has a special vibe. It could have been the final show of Nightwish, the night their High Hopes were dashed.

🤩👍💥💯🎼 It´s fair to say Marko "Mr. Metal" Hietala is one of the most influential characters here in Finland on Heavy Rock/Metal scene...Since mid 80´s when they put up an ´orchestra´ called Tarot with his older bro Sakari "Zachary" Hietala. 🤘😎💙🎶
Markoooooo ❤!! Emppu and everyone....❤thanks for your great reaction 🤩Greetings from Finland 🤗
I am a fan of Pink Floyd all of my life (69 y old Dutch guy) and have seen them several times. And since 5 years a massive fan of Nightwish. This is the ultimate tribute from an excelent band to an excelent band.
Thanks
Marko also sang lead in the song The Islanders by Night wish.

Kiitos!👍👍👍

Kiitos.
band is tight marko is awesome 2 solos yes
Tuomas, and rest of the band said back in the day that this wasn't a cover but a tribute to one of the greatest singer and band that ever excited in their opinion.
Whether in reactions or not, you should check out Marko as lead singer of Tarot. He also had a solo album out in 2020, Pyre of the Black Heart, and since then has even done some joint shows with Tarja. There will be some Tarot shows coming up in the future too. He's back in music and that's a great thing. 🔥🤘🔥
🤗🍒🤘🏻as always great job gp
Marko's old band Tarot's "Heavy Metal on Ice" consert songs "Guardian Angel" and "Things that crawl at night" are great too 🤘🙂👍
the quality of Nightwish shows in such covers/interpretations as well, because it proofs that they not just get the point of a song but are also able to refine it in their way without any pointless overdoing or 'bad excursions' (quite the same with Floors covers of songs)
'Look how young he is!' I dare you to check out the young Marko, Tarot: Wings of Darkness, year 1986.
Something ethereal about this performance - understandable given the circumstances of this particular gig - but the last 2 minutes were really something special - everytime I watch this, I always wonder why they're not levitating 😊😅
Performance was the 2005 Helsinki concert (End of an Era DVD) . Last show on the Once album tour, and last NW show for Tarja, she was off stage for a wardrobe change. Song #8 in an 18 song set. Marko absolutely kills it, and Emppu with the awesome guitar work, a tasteful tribute, to Gilmour's original work. Check out more from this show, try Marko and Tarja singing together, on their cover of "Phantom of the Opera", and the NW original "The Siren".
You've encountered a major moment in Nightwish history. I can think of no band that covers a song better than this one by honoring the original in their own way. Many thanks!
😩 My day was MAYHEM... . But then there was 😄... Thank you for your reaction 🙌🙏 😙. Greetings from Germany, Parkinson's sucks but EMPPU RULES 😎🤘 alex That one is outrageous 🎶
He has had a couple of bands where he's the lead singer. Kiss While Your lips are still red is an Awesome song with Marko has lead.
There is just something about Marko's voice. First of all, he lives the song he is singing, you can see it in his gestures and movements. Secondly, that voice is so powerful, and at the same time, wraps you in a blanket of comfort and familiarity, even when he screams. (well, Master Passion Greed may be an exception to that). He is a master of his craft. If you want to explore Marko's talents outside of Nightwish I would suggest that you take a look at the band he fronts, Tarot, and the song "Tides." Live version from "Undead Indeed".

Add 'Bye, bye Beautiful' to the list of exceptions, but both of those songs were for a special occasion. His ability to evoke emotions rivals Floor's.
Hi Man, I loved your review, Thank You, Just keep on Bringing it Dude
Yes! Did we tell you or what!? You rock for this! Thankyou! Pink Floyd was regretful and despairing, Marko and the boys felt the same but raged against it! True tribute - one great band to another! Emppu embraced Dave Gilmour's soul!
Marko had his own band long before Nightwish was ever formed! heres one of their songs (Bands name is Tarot ) kzread.info/dash/bejne/qnhl05RqlNWepNo.html
I think this will be an emotional one.
Great work in the background by Tuomas 🎹 and Jukka 🥁 but man, Emppu and Marko 🎸 made a dragon ball like fusion together. Even David Gilmore gave them a big compliment 👌🏼 KIITOS 🇫🇮 🤘🏼
I can't wait for this one. I don't know what, Dude is gonna like more, Marko's singing or Emmpu's playing.

This was not my first Nightwish track to hear, that was Islander, loved it and Marko's voice, so, bought the album Dark Passion Play, however just could not get on with Annette's voice Forward a few years or so and a metal singer came on Beste Zangers here (I'm in Belgium) and she started singing, then with them saying she was the lead singer with Nightwish and I thought that voice is not what I heard on DPP, so dipped my toe in some more up to date Nightwish and fell in love with the band again. Now been to see them live twice and hope that they come back to the stage soon. Gelsenkirchen was an awesome venue for a Nightwish concert 🤘🤘🤘

Yea Annette in Nightwish ? Eh . A good little singer but not for this bands genre I feel , a heavier pop or milder rock band suited for radio play maybe , but the fit here was a bit off .
Marco did front for his own band, Tarot.
Marko was the lead vocalist for his former band. He is also singing lead for his solo projects. Marko is definitely inspired by Ronnie Dio and Bruce.
This performance showcases Empuu's artistry. Convinced me he is as good or better than David Gilmore. Change my mind.

Oh , look out Dude , you will be stepping on some toes on that comment with the older generation ! What for the backlash 😁. Emmpu is awesome in his own right , he shows Alot of maturity in his skill and the ability to complement the song rather take over it like a lot of status seeking guitarists of today . He's like the closet shredder ! 🤘

Great musicians in their own right and very different to Nightwish who I love . If only we could go back in time to witness that Wacken concert , now that would have been a once in a lifetime experience 🤘

Great reaction againe 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 NWAF
Nightwish doing Nightwish things, while the main vocalist is in bathroom and clothchange :) watch their other bathroomsongs like "riptide/deep blue sea" and "Symphony of Destruction" too
Never tire of watching this tribute to Pink Floyd. For more Marko, you need to react to 'Voice of my Father' with Marko and his backing band..... I'd love to see how you get on with that one..... it brings many to tears.
JUST FOUR GUYS....
One of the things that make this performance even more powerful to me is the fact that this was the last show with their original singer, Tarja. There was a lot of turmoil within the band at that time, and at the end of that show, Tarja was going to be handed her dismissal letter, a fact that was known by all members of the band (except her). Thus, this particular show has a special vibe. It could have been the final show of Nightwish, the night their High Hopes were dashed.
YES this tribute is wonderful !! Well done Gilmore said it is the best tribute of this song. and after this show NW fired Tarja.. lots of emotions . Greetings from nwAse Sweden
For Marco....with his former band Tarot on Wings of Darkness, The Voice of My Father, more ...Master Passion Greed with NW, The Gathering with Delain, Run with Exit Eden, so many more....

He has his own band for decades, Tarot. With his brother on guitar. I love the song "stones" of Tarot. Marko is so underrated as singer. The stuff he did in Nightwish was so awesome. And together with Floor he sounds sooooo good. I understand he wanted more time with his family, the man is active in the metal scene since the 80's. Thanks sir
Marko does front his own band, a band he put together with his guitarist brother 15+ years before he joined Nightwish. I've been listening to them since 1987. Here's my favorite song from them kzread.info/dash/bejne/p6CE2aWqZJizhqw.htmlsi=66a-B1xs10H3ovPE&t=54

Marko's Idol is Rob Halford from Judas Priest!
Nightwish. Not just one, but TWO world class vocalists.
Next: How’s the heart? (Acoustic and video) and I want my tears back (Buenos Aires 2019)
In my opinion they are already at the top, look at the cover they did, at the level they did, and I don't even need their FrontWoman, time will turn them even more into legends... Few people are really realizing the Talent they had and What does this band have...it is also understood that it is an unusual genre for most people.
Emmpu and Marko are truly awesome in this song, well they are all great. Marko sings with such intensity in this song. Tbh i prefer this to the original and im a life long Floyd fan.
Did you do Marko & Tarja, Phantom of the Opera from this same concert? Marko is a great Phantom. I wish he would have done one with Floor.

What a tribute from Nightwish to this legendary song 🤩. Marko is a living legend !!!!! And Emppu's guitar solo is Top tier !!!! NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.
You know you have a talented band when your back-up singer wins singing competitions and can sing like that while playing bass. ;)
Influences from Bruce Dickinson? You bet. Marko started fronting a heavy metal band back in 1982, when Iron Maiden was in their Golden Years and ended up being huge in Finland.
Marko is great, but I think Emppu steals the limelight with his solos! He is a guitar master!🤘🎸

All Pink Floyd fans only listen to this version now. Makes Pink Floyd's version seem like a cartoon. High Hopes by Nightwish is the only Pink Floyd song I ever listen too. Tried a few different versions of the original by Pink Floyd (Live or a recording) and they put me to sleep.
The most "into it" performance. No member smiled even a little bit, focus on max, they probably wanted to give the song their all (talent and respect to the original). Complete success.
Wanna hear more Marko? I request a double reaction of the song "the voice of my father" (if you haven't done a reaction to this song, by now). First the english version and then the finnish version, please.
He sung super high and clean in Tarot from time to time, so Dio and Bruce Dickinson are likely influences when he was fronting in Tarot
Oh next one,,, huh,, let me see... Walking in the Air. Over the Hills and Far Away and Symphony of Destruction are some of their covers that I really like.
Marko does an excellent job with Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs”. Take a listen

This song gets my heart pumping makes me cry, it just hits your soul x nice reaction again! x
It’s time you react to the IMHO best Marko song: Master Passion Greed. No lady singers, purely Marko !! The most angry and heavy NW song and surely in my top 5. You don’t have to look for a live version. It’s not there and probably never will be (however I still dream that Floor will sing/growl it….). There’s a version with concert image (beautiful) made by a fan, but just close your eyes and listen to the official version with no images, or pull up the lyrics. I know you surely will be amazed !! Enjoy !! kzread.info/dash/bejne/mnaItNNre8raY7Q.html

Hi 👋 from the UK 🇬🇧 division of the Nightwish army something you might like to check out Marcos band called tarot Tarot wings of darkness live Also check out tarot wings of darkness 1986 video ( a very young and different looking Marco lol 😊
Loosing Marco is a massive loss to Nightwish and their fans , that extra voice was awesome along side Floors and is missed to this day . Marco is also great in Shudder before the beautiful , While your lips are still red , and Seven days to the wolves live at Wembley 🤘
Not a cover, a tribute. This is where British nostalgia meets Finnish realism. And Marko has a lot of more bands. Tarot was the one he made it the first time.
this is a fantastic tribute will you see marco and floor sing together in 2009 look for DELAIN A DAY FOR GHOSTS(LIVE PRO SHOT BOERENKERK FT FLOOR AND MARCO 2009 they sing togheter
For a more emotional Marko try Voice of my father.

Just a little filler song while Tarja is changing outfits 😁Tuomas altered the key of the song slightly to make it so much more haunting. Moral of the story - Never go up against Nightwish in a battle of the bands, even if you're Pink Floyd...
As im a massive Pink Floyd fan for 52 yrs and seen them live twice , im not listening to this because 1. they are a foreign band 2. non fans of Floyd dont know the meaning of this song or how much it means to Floyd fans 3. This is the last song on the last studio LP made by Floyd 4 . I dont do covers as a rule . There only three on you tube worth listening to
GREAT COVER FROM PINK FLOYD .. BUT PINK FLOYD IS THE BEST
