That dude is Mr. Tapio Wilska! "Tapio Wilska (born 19 September 1969) is the main vocalist of the heavy metal band Sethian. He is also the ex-lead vocalist for the band Finntroll and is the current vocalist of Canadian band Obscene Eulogy. He gets his inspiration from bands like Black Sabbath, Motörhead, Dead Kennedys, Venom, Thin Lizzy and The Pixies." When Nightwish released their 1998 album Oceanborn, Wilska was asked to do the male vocals on the tracks Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean and The Pharaoh Sails to Orion. After his appearance on Oceanborn, Wilska also performed on the song 10th Man Down on Over the Hills and Far Away in 2001 and once again with The Pharaoh Sails to Orion on Nightwish's DVD From Wishes to Eternity.

also one of the people who influenced nightwish a lot during formation and helped get tuomas in contact with record companies
One can only imagine what impact Oceanborn-album made back in 1998. No-one hadn't ever heard anything like that

"No-one hadn't ever heard anything like that" While this is not entirely correct, I can still confirm, that it blew me away right from the start. And to this day, "Oceanborn" still remains in my alltime top 20 list of albums. During the 90s there were several bands who experimented with symphonic elements, even female operatic voices. Paradise Lost, Waltari, Rage... just to name a few. Power Metal was also already wellknown for its classic influences. So it seemed just to be a matter of time, till somebody combined these two things. Really new was a female operatic front singer (not just a guest), the insane songwriting talent, the great musicianship and the passion, delivered as one tight package.

@@strogaa Oceanborn also deeply affected Tuomas psychologically. He felt as if that he put everything he got into Oceanborn and because of that, had a "writers block" when we begun to create their next album. This is also why Tuomas views/used to view "Wishmaster" as a mediocre album, because he felt Oceanborn was just so high above everything he had ever created. He talked about this in the Nightwish documentary "The end of innocence" which can be found on KZread.
It's crazy seeing how consistent this band is. They don't miss.
First Korpiklaani and now dive in to almost ancient Nightwish? I think I need to take some vodka with my beer, this night might stretch a bit. Thanks Eric for the awesome company.
From Wishes to Eternity was the first DVD the band released. The concert was the 29th of December 2000 in Tampere, the tour for the Wishmaster album. Sami Vansa was with the band for another 6 months or so after this, before he and the band parted ways. End of an Era DVD is the 2005 concert, in Helsinki. There was a video on yt of this song live with Marko singing, but I can't find it anymore. P.S. James LaBrie is Dream Theater lead singer, if you're like me you probably remembered that about 30 seconds after you stopped recording. lol
Love early Nightwish, it was so special. One should always remember how young they were and the quality of the songs and live performance (there are great remastered versions of the DVD out there). Definitely talented beyond most of their age and experience. Tarja's voice and timbre were exactly right for these songs and her vocals throughout this demanding set were really impressive. Thanks for the reaction!
Evening Eric ☺, that is actually THE song that made me a NIGHTWISH fan 🤩, 🤔 SO many moons ago... 🤔😑🙄😏😆🤟😉 when we were young! Greetings from Germany, Parkinson's still sucks and EMPPU RULES!!! 🤗 alex
have you heard "Angels fall first" from their debut Eric ? if not, oooouuh you missed something ;)
Great Reaction!! Someone thorough!! 😊🤘 Freekkn Awesome song& Review!! thanku
I've been waiting for this for a long time.
You're getting into this era yeeeahhh🎉🎉🎉 tarja's voice is beautiful and the old tracks are so good !! Talking about crowd control, tarja's connecting with the crowd so well, she's both commanding and fun😊
We are kindred spirits in that I also smile when I see Tuomas getting into it :) 13:37
Incredible instrumentation, between the drumming and the keyboard. Even when Tarja wasn't singing she was upstaging the male lead singer.
Actually, it’s around the year 2000. So it’s a little wonky at moments with the syncing and the lighting. The sound is really good though, imo. This one is probably the most chaotic song of the concert. I think I heard someone say when Tarja got the song, she said something like I can’t sing this. LOL. I don’t like growling either, but I think it’s fine here. Tuomas loves to make Tarja sing fast. There’s about 3 of them. People complain about her diction and I get it. But how do you get words distinct when you’re singing opera that fast. This concert is really high energy. There’s a couple of slow ones and an instrumental to mix it up. I put a request in discord for another one Wanderlust. Another fast one
Wave 👋 thanks for doing another Nightwish again.
Yes, I just noticed. Thank you, must watch now!
I love me some good old Nightwish, the magic deep love for creating music within Tuomas was powerful from the very first start, and is still going on .... next album this year :)
Wow, this was a full plate of interesting comments! There were many interesting viewpoints, but I want to point out again your comments about Emppu´s guitar skills. I agree strongly with you that Emppu is so good that he don´t even have underline it. But still he can do everything that Tuomas throws at him. And of course he is also pleasure in stage to watch and listen, because of his humbleness, good spirits, humor and sporty-like-activity (he got black belt in judo). Now he is one of the two remaining original members of Nightwish and a real backbone of his childhood-friend Tuomas.
It's a shame they don't play this song live anymore. Would be a blast with today's line-up!

This one is soooo good! From Tapio's to the fast pace of the melody. Usually, Tarja was the star back then but on songs like this one, everyone is just amazing. On their first few albums they played at speed of light 😅🔥🤘 8:21 you know what? I stand correct, that ending was stellar 13:28 Our mischievous hobbit and our mastermind understand perfectly and are super tight (as in friends) that sigh when you started talking about him made me chuckle yet again 15:46 Jukka... What can I about him? As much as I love Kai now, I'm totally biased, Jukka is my favourite.

Progressive operatic doom metal. Yep, that pretty much sums it up. 😁🤘
I love your innsights on Nightwish's songs, and i would really like to hear your take on "while your lips are still red- live at wembley 2015"!
Thank you! I'm with you, I don't like growls. I just can't enjoy them... However, there are two songs that I like that have growls in it (though I can't say that I have heard a lot of songs with growls), Nightwish's Yours Is an Empty Hope and Tarja's Dead Promises. I mean the Pharaoh Sails to Orion is okay to me, but not a song that I listen to very often.
I never liked those song because Tapio was "growling" on this. The later versions are better where Marco sing those Tapio Wilska's parts. Now unfortunately I do not know if there are recordings from later ones.
My default is not to like growling as a main vocal (although I'm fine with it for highlights, e.g., _Yours_ _is_ _an_ _Empty_ _Hope_ or Delain's _The_ _Quest_ _and_ _the_ _Curse),_ and it definitely reduces my enjoyment of Wintersun; but sometimes it doesn't bother me at all, as here. Thank you for giving a little insight into why!
I love this performance and generally seeing baby Nightwish , but Wilska shoving Sami there always makes me feel bad. Great reaction and analysis once again.
Tapio and Tuomas are friends. He was between gigs at the time so Tuomas gave him work as a roadie and had him put in some vocal work. I agree about the growling. But it proves Tarja can work with near anyone and sound great. Also watch Tapio tower over Tuomas who just under 2M/6'5" tall himself. Tapio is ' the godfather' of Finnish Metal nowadays A short bit of Death Metal you might like on the official Crewish ( the roadie's own band) album Twice. Its their 2nd.album (2020) recorded during lockdown so they coukd earn money during lockdown. Also of course getting Tarja and Tapio to rerecord the song from Once (2004, and Tarja's last with the band) is a lovely eastee egg/referrence/word play. Tuomas gave them permission to use and monetize the song, then as a bonus he redid the keyboard sections for them. It is also in small part the 1st thing Tarja and Tuomas both contributed musically to. Not together and everyone at their own studios. Both Thomas and Tarja have lost parents. Of course knowing eachother back in school they met eachother's parents so she was the.1st to reach out to him after his loss. Tarja has ever been kind like that. Its good to see that ties of friendship can be mended at least in part. Tarja and Tapio reaching out to help the crew was a great touch.
Such an epic song. Its the only nightwish song i really like
Only band I have enjoyed the "growling" is Disturbed. David takes it to a whole different level!
My favourite Nightwish song ever!
Understand the growl thing , yeah it works here.
If you don't like growling, check Amorphis. Then you'll like growling. Shades of gray, amongst the stars, brother and sister...
ALL hale the REAL TRUE QUEEN 👑 of NIGHTWISH and of ALL FEMALE SYMPHONIC METAL SINGERS!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!😀👍👍🤘

Growling: me not a fan, Tuomas is no fan about that, it does not matter for short growl, but it is not my cup of coffee. Emppu - in very young years.
Love this. Calling it a "song" seems too weak and plebian for the compositional and performance extravaganza this is. Someone needs to come up with a new word. Great review Eric, I am loving your excursions into early Nightwish.
doom metal sound as far as nightwish at the time may go it was a good contrast between those two vocalists there
You are great Eric for trying to keep it diverse, but Floor (and Wacken 2013) has ruined me for life.

I love the composition of this song, though must say it's been years since I heard it. I am not really a fan of growls and I can only listen to Tarja one song at a time.
Don't care for the singer.
This was pre-Marco Nightwish so they had no full time male singer. Tuomas tried to sing in the beginning but there is s reason why he doesn't do it anymore. It sucked, lol. Empuu looks like 11 year old here. This was the first song I have ever heard from Nightwish , pretty crazy. Tarja next next level here but she is like that. If not for her douche bag husband, she might never left. Saying that with Floor in mind that she is the best singer of Nightwish. Right now Tarja and Marco is touring together.
Tapio Wilska! 🤘
