The weasels came back. lol 2nd spoken part roughly translates to "If I play the chorus, you're gonna sing along, right?" - "Yeah!" - "Are you sure?" - "Yeah!" - "Ok, let's do it". Marko wrote the music during his days with Tarot, but it didn't fit with them. Tuomas heard him playing it one day , decided it would make a great song, and wrote the lyrics about a lonely lighthouse keeper. The running joke is that Marko should have a t-shirt that says, 'Floor is my backup singer'.
Marko is so talented. He is so unique - he has unmatched charisma and that ultimately is a reason why everyone loves him so much. I went to Marko's gig a couple of weeks ago and it was an absolutely amazing experience. Cheered me up a lot.
A great song. Composed by Marko and the lyrics by Tuomas. Every time to see them on the stage, you feel good. Their stage presence is so positive and catching.
It's crazy that already at that point he might have been depressed, and felt bad that his presence would weigh people around down. How totally wrong he was - he always lifted us up. But I'm happy he put himself first and concentrated on letting himself get up and be lifted. That's the most important thing.
Well done guys. By far the best version. Marko at his best and his backing band amazing. If you want one from Tampa there is brilliant version of Sahara in 2016.
Love this song and this concert...you are so close to one of Nightwish's best performances, also from this concert, Weak Fantasy! Watch Floor challenge organized religion to a fight :)
We all love Marko and I'm sure I speak for many when I say "we" love this song and this phenomenal performance. Markos backing band sound promising 😊👍. Thank you gents or should I say thank you Marko and Troy 👀🤣? 🙏😊👍❤️
Hello from Florida 🇫🇮 😊 this Tampa concert was amazing 😊 Marko did write this song for Tarot but thought it doesn't fit with them, luckily Tuomas heard it. We miss him but he hasn't left music and concerts completely and that is great.
Marko is Gandalf the White meets Viking. Tuomas is Aragorn Frodo hybrid. Emppu is forever positive Sam, mixed with the playfulness of Merry and Pippin. Kai is the great elven smith who is forging the rings of power (also called drums), Troy is Theoden king, and Floor is the elvish warrior queen.
Good morning 😊, Florida is overcrowded with german Tourists but there is "space in the smallest cabin" as we say in Germany 🤣. It's so good that you haven't finished NIGHTWISH catalogue yet. Thanks for your reaction 😄 Greetings from Germany and Parkinson's sucks and EMPPU RULES 😎🤘 alex 🤗
Love this song and live is definitely the best way to go. The smile on their faces just makes them so special, the true joy of playing together is unmistakable and how many lead vocalists take a step back and do backing looking as happy as Floor did?
Hey again, Alex and George. I always love the joy in both of your reactions. By the way, by this point Troy was a full member of the band. He and Floor became official members of Nightwish shortly after the Wacken 2013 concert. Someone once asked Troy what he couldn't play and he said "Hockey". Keep the Nightwish live performances coming.
That was beautiful! I confess that they are not my thing, but I have watched all your reactions to them and have enjoyed them all, but this was something I can really get behind, loved, loved, loved it! ❤
her smiling is very nice - she is a very humble person. And enjoy that somebody else gets credits. She knows that we love her and she does not have to show her talent all the time. she does not have to prove us her qualities which we have seen a lot of times. Marco did a great show, not to forget the rest - and TUOMAS.
You picked one of my all-time favorites! I'm really glad George got to see this. He's made several references to Marko's singing in the past. This performance brings it full circle. I have struggled with this decision, but I have concluded this is the best Nightwish concert---so far. Start to finish, pure magic. If you guys ever do another full concert reaction, this one is on the short list. Thamesmen are long-haired, rogue idols of coeds everywhere! Including Alex 😁
When I saw them in 2012, Nightwish played this a bit closer to the original arrangement, but the feeling was magical. We were all swaying and smiling and singing along. It’s easily the greatest sense of fellowship I’ve had at any show I’ve been to.
A massive performance. Every time I hear that performance, I am reminded of the Wagakki Band from Japan. When the long woodwind pipe (similar but different) kicks in I am transported to Japan. Which is kind of weird because Nightwish have been around longer than the Wagakki Band. However, the W Band uses the (I am embarrassed, because I can't remember the name of the instrument) long flute more often. What came first, the chicken or the egg? I have no Idea. Both cultures have a long history of strong wind instrumentals and I respect the artistry of both. However, I am going to give the nod to Nightwish in this instance, probably just based on their reach, and their more traditional European style. Beautiful music.
Hahahaha, Troy is a full member of Nightwish and he sits on a prop that looks like a rock. The whole stage is builded like that at the end of the show: the greatest show on earth is the last masterpiece they performed here in Tampere, Finland. :D Absolutely masterpiece , based on dr. Dawkins books and telling the story of the birth of the universe and evolution on earth
Hi guys, greetings again 😁 I just love the way that Floor looked so proud when Marko returned to the stage and she and the band were so happy for him to have had the spotlight for a change Marko is one of the few people in the world who can claim that Floor Jansen is his backing singer! 😂
Troy sits on a rock because you have to sit down to play the uilleann pipes. They cannot be played while standing. A great way to slow the show down for a few minutes. It works well for your Nightwish week as well. Commander Data was rockin that Hammond and the crew was feeling it too!
🤩👌💥💯🎼 There you have a proper "sea shanty" with powerful vocals by 'Mr. Metal' ladies and gentle Thamesmen. Not forgetting Floor's vocalization at the back ground for a change .😉 Cool reaction guys, as always . Cheers Cheers from Finland . 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙 (don't believe everything people are typing down on the comments about the vikings, f.e.)🙄
Nightwish, a box full of surprises, from a genius composer 👌🏻, and find his best female singer to bring it on the table 🤘🏻 You will be blown away by the latest album of Nightwish, Its: Human and Nature. Dubble album, with a lead singing song by Troy Donockley, the 6th amazing multi instrumental member of the band. the 2nd album is completely instrumental
Love from Romania! You guys should do a listen to Bless the Child live at Wachen 2013 and Ghestsemane live in Buenos Aires 2018 whenever you get the chance!!!
Always chills when the others come in and their harmonies at the end are so good! His voice is great in this one but for me he is at his best in the High Hopes tribute.
Oh guys, there were Vikings in Finland. At least where I was born, Hanko, the southernmost city in Finland. The Vikings stopped here on their way to Russia or the rivers of Europe
Such a fantastic song and a great performance. I would suggest reviewing (or at least watching) Nightwish's cover of Pink Floyd's "High Hopes" sung by Marko, it is amazing.
There is fanvideos from not Tampa but Fort Lauderdale 2012 2 weeks after Floor sings first time with Nightwish, audio is not so good, but she looks and sounds as early as that perfect to me😉
Stunning performance have watched many times. Love it Marko just so good. Oh by the way as Nightwish and the family connection to Sabaton if you have not done the First Soldier you got to check it out. Then their new Motorhead cover 1916. All I can say is WOW 👌. Bring a tissue do powerful. Saw them live a few weeks ago in Glasgow. Best concert ever they are that good 👍. Keep on rocking love you guys.
It’s Tam-pe-re. Give it a Spanish pronunciation and you’ve got it. A great many of us Floridians would love to see Tampa full of Finns, too! But, I doubt the Finns would love to have a mass of people from Tampa in their country in exchange. 😅
You asked about rock.. It actually is (well..is made to look like)a fossile. A trilobit. This tour was about sciense, history, evolution etc so ofcourse Troy is sitting on a fossile and Kai has dna double helix on basedrums skins. Btw..so does floor on her outfit.
You might find Tampa full of Finnish people if a Finnish band plays there. I have met several Finns in Texas who fly in to support and see their bands on tour.
There's someone who with luck may comment, who smwas telling a story recently about meeting Marco in a bar, told him his son was a fan and Marco insisted on going back to his house to see the son. He can tell the story properly. Troy sits on a large ammonite in much of the tour, as the tour is based on the EFMB album about evolution: it was Troy that pointed Tuomas to Dawkins' books which eventually led to the album theme so I think he gets to choose the prop he wants. Marco contributed much to the album, but this song is from Dark Passion Play, before this tour.
I *might* love Marko more than you... He is a recovering alcoholic, and a supporter of social-democracy. He's gentle in nature, but will stand up an fight for fairness! Akex! THANK YOU for remembering that Vikings didn't live in Finland! I am impressed w your memory, sir! Well done, you!
please, please, never ever again mention the A team and a moose in the same sentence... I did not see that coming and just had a sip out of my glass. tomorow will tell, if the keyboard of my pc survived this attack on my laughing muscles 🤣 anyways, love you 2, love Marco, love Nightwish and love this song! 🥰 cheers
Nice reaction guys. Actually about the viking thing. There has been found more viking swords from Finland, than from Denmark or Iceland. Only Sweden and Norway are front. So this is perfect example how Swedes has hidden Finnish history during Swedish rule. There were vikings in Finland.
@@TheThamesmen Such a weird "info" about the vikings, gotta say(type down) Must be a REALLY "hidden history" or someone's wild imagination since Danish and Swedish vikings barely set their feet on the Suomi(Finlândia) soil. This land was a swamp mush and no riches to steal back in the days at 1100's !!! Dunno from where these "hidden history facts" is digged off, most likely deep end from someone's back end 😅 As a Finn I am more than curious to see the sources to such bvllshit stories. Sooo... That commentator is more than welcome to send links to these (freakin) "hidden history" fairy tales. 🙈😹😝 Kamoon people, and every wannabe vikings... Uffffg
Hi fellows. I'll get straight to the heart of the matter, i.e. the "Viking" thing: it's all Dutch, you know. Don't believe the Sturlusonians and their tall tales. Earliest longboat finds are all in Dutchieland. And it's "Wijkings" (or "wijkelingen", from "wijken" meaning to flee, regroup) since the early wijklings had to flee the Carolingians. Dani, Frisii, Franks, Saxons and all manner of "Northmen" lived on the shores of today's Flanders, N-France (Normandy..) and the Netherlands. Quite some ended up (uit-wijken) in Scandinavia, and the wijkling became viking 😁 True story! Cheers from Amstelhavn 🤘
@@TheThamesmen It dos, right? With a knowing smile we can now safely ignore all these tough-talking Norse salon beardos and their 'viking' obsession ;)
You have most definitely offended some bearded Danes, North-Eastern Danes, North-Western Danes and the Islander kind of Danes too. So you better get ready, those wijkings might decide to raid you! I bet the majority of those so very proud of their viking ancestors don't know what the word actually means. I'm curious about the scale of the exodus. Scandinavia was populated by Germanic tribes long before the Carolingians, and Old Norse was not mutually intelligible with Old Saxon or Old Franconian. So we're not talking about the vikings occupying some empty lands in the North. This historical precedent, however, means that our Fleur Jansdóttir can rightfully claim 'the' throne as the Nordic Valkyrie Goddess Amazon Warrior Princess (etc.) she is.😁
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 "our Fleur Jansdóttir can rightfully claim 'the' throne as the Nordic Valkyrie Goddess Amazon Warrior Princess (etc.) she is." Which is what this is all about oc. As tt language, that's guesswork but my source claims that the differences weren't that pronounced yet, that they couldn't understand each other. When Lowlander wijkings came to England, the ppl on the shore understood what they said. Same when Dani, or Frisians came to Denmark. They all spoke a form of coastal Germanic akin to (very) Low Saxon.
Viking was not ethnicity, it was a profession. But that said, Baltic Finns did take part into that profession. The trips to the Black Sea and Silk Road started from the end of the Gulf of Finland and people living around the Gulf at the time were those Finns, so it was natural for some of them to join the bands. The very first Czar is told to have been a viking from group called Rus - you can see his picture on Ukrainian currency even today, wearing what looks a lot like a viking headpiece. And when DNA testing the living known relatives of the first Czar dynasty the Y haplogroup was found to be N1C1, which is almost exclusively found in descendants of the Finnic tribes. We of course don't know for certain where the first Czar was born, but in high likelihood his other descendants live now in Finland and Estonia. Rus people gave their names to various concepts, given their mobility and influence. Originally the word came from expression meaning "people who arrive by rowing". Later Kievan Rus, the first Slavic Empire and seat of the first Czar was named after them, and thus both Russia and Belarus carry the word rus. What's more, Finns call Sweden 'Ruotsi', which, too, derives from Rus. So we don't know if Marko really is a viking, but he could well be!

Marko is like Vainamoinen from Finnish mytology. Mighty wizard singer like Vainamoinen was. Mytology says Vainamoinen left and will return when he is needed. I wonder if Marko is Vainamoinen himself and is his douple neck instrument is done from giant pike's jaw like Vainamoinen's kantele...
The weasels came back. lol
2nd spoken part roughly translates to "If I play the chorus, you're gonna sing along, right?" - "Yeah!" - "Are you sure?" - "Yeah!" - "Ok, let's do it".

Nightwish also played in Tampa and reacting to "Sahara" from this concert could be a good idea.
That would confuse us for sure!😀

Top of the field!! Cheers Alex

I have struggled with this decision, but I have concluded this is the best Nightwish concert---so far. Start to finish, pure magic.

HA HA... Including me!!
Another great reaction.Your sense of humor is really fantastic🤣
Thanks.
One of my favourites so far because I love seeing Marco and Troy together on stage.
When I saw them in 2012, Nightwish played this a bit closer to the original arrangement, but the feeling was magical. We were all swaying and smiling and singing along. It’s easily the greatest sense of fellowship I’ve had at any show I’ve been to.
The backing singer is good on this ..😎
A massive performance.
Every time I hear that performance, I am reminded of the Wagakki Band from Japan. When the long woodwind pipe (similar but different) kicks in I am transported to Japan. Which is kind of weird because Nightwish have been around longer than the Wagakki Band. However, the W Band uses the (I am embarrassed, because I can't remember the name of the instrument) long flute more often.
What came first, the chicken or the egg? I have no Idea. Both cultures have a long history of strong wind instrumentals and I respect the artistry of both. However, I am going to give the nod to Nightwish in this instance, probably just based on their reach, and their more traditional European style.
Beautiful music.
The best thing Im taking away how they are having a lot of fun/just enjoying the moment.
Always good to see that

You have most definitely offended some bearded Danes, North-Eastern Danes, North-Western Danes and the Islander kind of Danes too. So you better get ready, those wijkings might decide to raid you!
I bet the majority of those so very proud of their viking ancestors don't know what the word actually means.
I'm curious about the scale of the exodus. Scandinavia was populated by Germanic tribes long before the Carolingians, and Old Norse was not mutually intelligible with Old Saxon or Old Franconian. So we're not talking about the vikings occupying some empty lands in the North.
This historical precedent, however, means that our Fleur Jansdóttir can rightfully claim 'the' throne as the Nordic Valkyrie Goddess Amazon Warrior Princess (etc.) she is.😁
@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 "our Fleur Jansdóttir can rightfully claim 'the' throne as the Nordic Valkyrie Goddess Amazon Warrior Princess (etc.) she is."
Which is what this is all about oc. As tt language, that's guesswork but my source claims that the differences weren't that pronounced yet, that they couldn't understand each other.
When Lowlander wijkings came to England, the ppl on the shore understood what they said. Same when Dani, or Frisians came to Denmark. They all spoke a form of coastal Germanic akin to (very) Low Saxon.
Viking was not ethnicity, it was a profession.
But that said, Baltic Finns did take part into that profession. The trips to the Black Sea and Silk Road started from the end of the Gulf of Finland and people living around the Gulf at the time were those Finns, so it was natural for some of them to join the bands.
The very first Czar is told to have been a viking from group called Rus - you can see his picture on Ukrainian currency even today, wearing what looks a lot like a viking headpiece. And when DNA testing the living known relatives of the first Czar dynasty the Y haplogroup was found to be N1C1, which is almost exclusively found in descendants of the Finnic tribes. We of course don't know for certain where the first Czar was born, but in high likelihood his other descendants live now in Finland and Estonia.
Rus people gave their names to various concepts, given their mobility and influence. Originally the word came from expression meaning "people who arrive by rowing". Later Kievan Rus, the first Slavic Empire and seat of the first Czar was named after them, and thus both Russia and Belarus carry the word rus. What's more, Finns call Sweden 'Ruotsi', which, too, derives from Rus.
So we don't know if Marko really is a viking, but he could well be!
Well..... last time we mentioned Vikings let's say we were gently CRUCIFIED - Cheers Alex
I am living in Tampa, and am willing to trade with someone from Finland for awhile!

More holiday support. Slack UA-camrs...we're all doomed. Doomed I tell you!
You look more like Flake from Rammstein, rather than Marko. Sorry.
Marko won The Masked Singer Finland BTW.
I'll take that.... I have n right to think I look like Marko!
Marko is like Vainamoinen from Finnish mytology. Mighty wizard singer like Vainamoinen was. Mytology says Vainamoinen left and will return when he is needed. I wonder if Marko is Vainamoinen himself and is his douple neck instrument is done from giant pike's jaw like Vainamoinen's kantele...
Sufficiently annoying. Thx!
What is?
