The vocal talents on this are fabulous, *but* Marco's vocals hit you like a freight train full of grit and goosebumps. Dang I love his voice 💜
Would say Marco and one of the other guys are stood out the most to me. But it’s easy to name and prefer Marco because we know him.
In Marco's autobiography, he had a polyp on this vocal cords and was advised to operate, it was botched and he was unable to speak for weeks. Once he got some of his voice back he found the more that he used his voice the stronger it got. He also had to relearn to sing, he was later told he should never of had the surgery in the first place, and that they had cut a nerve and caused some paralysis. He never recovered some of his upper range and he regrets the surgery.
I didn't know the whole story, I know he lost some of his upper range, but I love how he managed to train his voice again in order to regain almost all of the power. For reference the Tarot videos from the 80's have Marco's original voice and it was even more powerful. And he also smokes from what I know and that will change the voice.
@@adinadamian5634 He doesn't "smoke", per se, anymore, but switched to e-cigarettes years ago. Aka he needs the nicotine but his lungs are better off without the carbon crap.... Then there's been some other physical changes aside age, like quitting the alcohol, realising he had massive reflux issues from years of stress and unhealthy eating schedules(reason why he has to rather sing AROUND his gut now and not out of it - you can even visibly notice it by his posture and how some standing positions make it easier for him to hold notes over others), plus a lot of personal trauma(divorce, deaths, powerlessness over unfair people, wrong/missing medical diagnoses with logical cross reactions,...) - all stuff that does affect the voice, from a mental(which eventually ended in an almost fatal blow of all the years with chronic depression) as well as physical perspective.
Of course much of what I listed happened long after this particular video was recorded, but that doesn't mean the buildup over the years wasn't there and he had to make his voice adapt and drag it through that mud safely.
Sorry for dragging my sentences into length with that bracket info. It was the only way beside writing a full length novel. Hope it's somewhat comprehensible.
This is originally a French Christmas song, very beautiful. Finnish is a beautiful language and very much so when singing and specially in poems.
Finnish lyrics are not the same as in , Entre le bœuf et l'âne gris , its based on . in English "Between the ox and the grey donkey"
French / English lyrics en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entre_le_b%C5%93uf_et_l%27%C3%A2ne_gris.

@@pete_lind thank you. I know that, I was more referring to the melody. But thanks for the links :)
Anyone trying out Finnish language is a thing of beauty. Native language brings out something sensitive and honest in singers - as we can see here. This piece was much appreciated, thank you.
My mom used to sing this song as a lullaby. She did not sound as good as these men, but this song is special to me :)
Marko absolute stand out!
"A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one"
Greeting from Finland
@Jussie West Channelor of the Republic, Star Wars
Great performance in the middle of the Holiday season of Spring. Great! 🎅👍
Honestly , they all have sexy voices.
These guys are also the Northern Kings, but this one is not under that name, but part of Raskasta Joulua. One of my favorite videos of that project, used to go to Raskasta Joulua concert somewhere every year :)

As always, incredibly detailed, educational, interesting, how the heck do you hear so many nuances, reaction!! Always walk away from your reactions with a knowledge-packed Big Brain!
I love this song and clip .I noticed this one on UA-cam one day in November three years ago ...? I 've seen first time a man who sings so so beautiful but I haven't known yet who he is. In this way , I found out about Jarkko Ahola 😉⭐
Kind like how I found JP; Eicca from Apocalyptica was a guest on one of these acoustic RJ songs, which is how I started watching videos of these four Kings performing that song. Around the same time, a friend sent me a link to a Charon song, and I really liked it, but for some reason it didn't click that JP was in both bands until a video by Dark Sarah featuring JP, and I looked up his name. 😅 He is my personal favourite. ❤ I would love to see all four of these men perform together someday.
Marco is so metallic tonally but knows how to be gentle too.
He brings the flare at the end, he knows he’s at the end so he has to really bring the explosive high notes and dynamics. Look at the sudden the high notes and the sudden riffing.
Thank you for reacting to this. I'd never have found this beautiful piece if you hadn't. That's the value of the reactor - bringing new music to their community. One day some of the music companies will catch up with that.
Yayyy another one with JP. 😁 Everyone talks about Marko, and I do agree that Marko is very talented, but I personally prefer Tony and JP, my favourite. JP is especially criminally underrated, in my opinion. His voice is so unique, and I always thought it had a darker warmth to it. I don't think he ever had formal vocal training, either. (He also has his own version of this song that he released last year. I think you'd really love it.)
Oh, and the word you were talking about is "Nukkuu" (which means "[He/she/it] Sleeps"/ "Is sleeping"). You did mention about the difference between double and single vowels, but Finnish also distinguishes between single and double consonants, so both K's in the word are pronounced. I've been learning the language for the past few years, and being able to tell the difference between not just the single and double vowels but also single and double consonants is very important, or the meaning of the word can change completely. 😅 (Oh, and Raskasta Joulua means "Heavy Christmas", but "Metal Christmas" in this context works as a translation too. 😁)
Actually "Have a Heavy Christmas!" as a greeting.
@@KristiinaBerg That too. 🤘
Oh, and there is also a video of just JP and Marko singing this song at a radio station. It's really beautiful.
@@corinna007 The acoustic version, yes please!
@@KristiinaBerg I love it! ❤ I hope he'll react to it. JP's solo version is really great, too.
You should listen Finnish a cappella group Club for five and their song ”Lumineito”. They also sing in english but that song shows how beautifully finnish language can be sung.
Finnish has always sounded to me like the language of the "Elves". Really interesting people too. Maybe they ARE Elves O-o
Cheers from Downundah. \m/ ;P \m/
Well, Tolkien took inspiration from Finnish for the Elven language to his books, to be precise from Kalevala, Also apparently Gandalf was inspired from that too.
Perfect analysis of these 4 vocal giants ,but Marko is the best by far🤘
Well hungarian and finnish have the same root in language tree.
Given how Marco left and his reasons I can't unsee him looking depressed now.
Northern Kings and Toni Kakko and JP Leppäluoto.
Your analysis on the Finnish language and the specific tells is spot on.
Huge thank you :)
I love hearing JP sing!
JP is my favourite Finnish singer. ❤
Diante de tudo que Marko ja passou e ainda tem uma voz belíssima! Sim eu supervalorizo! Obviamente sem querer desmerecer os demais que também cantam muito❤
both Hungarian and Finnish are uralic languages - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uralic_languages
so good music that easy listening even not christmas time :) thanx to great reaction.
Marco steals the song. His vocals are insane.
Well… They also made the ending of this on the flashiest. We can’t really use that to say that he was somehow better than the rest. They all have amazing and unique voices.
Great review
Has anybody heard YL Male voice choir's version of the Leevi and Leavings classic 'Pohjois-Karjala'. Fun to watch, great performance and what an arrangement... YT video: Pohjois-Karjala - Ylioppilaskunnan Laulajat
I was just thinking of that when I rehearsed my memory of the original one after watching Masked Singer.
Song Is a bout to go to see Baby Jesus Cristus !! (Ieasu Nazarenvs). I still remember this one from my childhood times !?? 60 years ago !
torille
Just in case anyone not capable in the Finnish language is wondering, these are the lyrics roughly in English :
On the hay, in the bulls' trough
Sleeps an innocent Child.
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to Him
To marvel at the greatest Love.
In the hems of the beloved mother
Sleeps the Son of God.
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to Him
To marvel at the greatest Love.
In the midst of lilies and roses
Sleeps the Lord of people.
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to Him
To marvel at the greatest Love.
At the cross beside a robber
Sleeps the purest Victim.
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to Him
To marvel at the greatest Love.
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for translation. Am curious where the very distinctive rolling R's came from in Finnish, as other northern European languages surrounding Finland do not feature that linguism?. Also, the use of repeating consonants and vowels in many words!
@@m2duebbie Don't know if I can answer your question, but I will add that even in Finland, some dialects and accents have a stronger rolled R than others. JP, for example, comes from an area where the "Rrrr" sound is very strong. One of my Finnish friends and I talk about how much we love his accent.
As for the double vowels and consonants, I'm not sure how it developed, but being able to distinguish between the singles and doubles is vital, because one extra consonant or vowel can completely change the word. The first example I learned was "Tuli" ("Fire"), "Tuuli" ("Wind", as in the movement of air) and "Tulli" ("Customs", as in the security you go through when you travel internationally). Three different words that look and sound very similar, but three completely different meanings.
@@corinna007 , thank you, gives me a good start toward some understanding of Finnish. Fell in love with Nightwish this past year over quarantine, and just fascinated about so many things that make up their magic. Thanks again, lovely of you to take the time to share some insight and info.
@@m2duebbie Eipä kestä. :) ("Don't mention it.") I started learning Finnish about 6 years ago after seeing and meeting Apocalyptica for the first time, because I wanted to eventually be able to have at least a short conversation with them in their language. The more I learned about the language, culture, etc. and the more Finnish music I listened to, the more I fell in love, and now Finland is like my second home.
Marko is 55. Floor is still trying to speak Finnish. Node surgery kinda went wonky. Marco has been singing since 1982 professionally
Tony ! That is all! All are beasts though.
Yay, finally Tony Kakko!
Jarkko is like Dio
Its gonna be hard replace Marko not only a bass player, but also his vocals. Makes me wonder if anyone in this group can sing like marko did while he was in nightwish.
Jarrko
Probably! Marko is an extraordinary vocalist - fortunately others are also extraordinary. He hangs out with a ludicrously talented crowd. XD Opinions will differ on whether they are as good or not. I wonder whether the new person will be singing in a very similar way or whether they will make the sings their own? Probably in a very similar way, I'm thinking. Certainly at first.
I just hope Tuomas will be able to continue the band. Changes in line-up have been extremely hard before in terms of him feeling able to carry on. I know this one has been very different and Marko shut down any suggestion of a falling-out immediately, but it still worried me! I hope Tuomas can keep his passion going.
Maybe Justin Beaber will come to nighwish solist ;)
You newer know!
@@haukionkannel Don't even joke XD
@@haukionkannel HAHA, talk about throwing somebody in at the deep end!! I'd feel sorry for the guy. As far as I know, Justin Bieber can sing pop alright, but trying to sing metal?! He'd be eaten alive.
Just the sheer, awesome power of the musical composition would devour the poor boy, and trying to sing next to Floor... well. He might as well just surrender immediately, repent of his impertinence and beg forgiveness and mercy from the metal gods in order to escape with his life. XD
....I am very silly when I haven't slept enough. :-D
I wish JP would reform Charon. Their last album, 'Songs for the Sinners', is in my top ten of all time.
It is soooooo gooooood
Had to do a double take when I saw the piano player.... Looked like Dave Mustaine at first glance....
That will teach me to watch reactions before I finish first mug of coffee! 🤣
'to see the most beloved love.'
Marko and Jarkko the best. They should form band/ Duo gro together ❤
What is the source of "Floor taught Marco to sing correctly"??? Interview? Article? Link? Anything?
Not sure, a lot of people in chat have mentioned that though
@@BigBrainSinger I've only seen it mentioned in youtube comments (and twitch chat) and mostly on your channel, so I'm guessing there's someone here stuck on this idea who keeps spreading it. I've gone though tons of Marko/Floor interviews and articles (probably all of them) and there's nothing, even though Marko has talked a lot about the surgery and the recovery from it. He has also talked about how he hated the forced classical direction of the music-specialized high school where he studied singing, but still found the techinques he learned there useful. Basically, Marko talks a lot about everything, and a lot about singing, and he has talked some about Floor, but never ever anything about Floor teaching him anything. Floor has talked about learning harmonizing from Marko and Troy though.
Summary: I guess it's just another fan fantasy.
I mean Floor is brilliant and of course you can always learn new things but since Marko has sang since 80s and vocal surgery was done 1996 it does not seem very likely.
Floor wasn’t even born when Marco was already singing rock... 😁
The floor fans want to make her responsible for everything good.
Thanks! Pls listen also Powerless Trio.
Do they have any publically available videos other than the Generac studio "hangout" samples?
@@m2duebbie Hi! Yes at least Marko and JP duo
@@m2duebbie Listen also Marko and Delain live. You know Raskasta Joulua-Heavy Christmas?
@@m2duebbie Sorry. Of course you know Christmas. They have done it like 15years and all the money from the tours and cd's goes to charity for youth mental healt-programs
@@m2duebbie Listen also Tuomas with Kotiteollisuus live. Different genre😁
Kiitos :) FI.
Guy beside Red is mayby Markos replacement in NW !!
If you like Marko and JP, look up Powerless Trio 😁
We finnish always cry :D
Hungarian writing is not so dramatically different than the Finnish one, Maín difference is that long vowels are written double in Finnish, and with accent marks in Hungarian. Still they don't affect the stress, because it's systematuclly in the 1st syllable in both, secondary stress in Finnish is in 4 syllable words or longer every second syllable, except some adjective endings etc. make it fall to a certain bpart in the ending or just before. I don't know how this works in Hungarian.
Also Hungarian has many more comsonants, but some of them have been pushing their way in Finnish for centuroes, and since the post-WWII globalization they are finally beginning to be natural tool kit of Finnish kids. Basic language is learned under 5 years young, as are many other basic skills in life. Oh, these consonants are not all which Hungarian has and were missing in Finnish - they are more like the ones coming from English and other Western Euorpean languages. Lastly a few vowels in Finnish and Hungarian are different, and finnish has much more diphthongs - 2 vowels combined in one syllable.
The main reason in Finnish for the words longer than 3 syllabbles are either compound building (like 'salesman' - sales+man), or adjectives and nouns deriving from them, kike 'industriial, industrialization'. So the same features exist oin English, just Finnish uses them much more, especiallly the compounds, which can have more than 2 words. It's not uniquely Finnish, German and Scandinavian languages do that too. Just the core words in Finnish are usaully 2 syllables, when in the Germanic languages they are just 1 long very often. Then comes the fact that derivational elements can be very many in one word (in-dust(-)r(-)i-al-iz-at-ion). Plus then come the case endongs - but they are just one per word, coz they do the same as prepositions. Oh, then there a few endings after the case marker that mean 'question, also, certainty of opinion' etc.
This is Raskasta Joulua and not Northern Kings even if it features the same singers
Ah, JP!
My favourite Finnish singer.
Yes, the Internet you can thank me. The wheel is rigged lol.
Jarkko.
I'm an amateur but this is my review: Whenever singers do the beat with their legs I think they have to go to the bathroom.
Toni gives some nice licks to the normal score: doing the note barely behind the tempo at 7:04 or quick head-shake at 7:07.
As a Finn I noticed that Jarkko likes to do a bit harder and longer R's than we normally do. Especially at 7:26.
JP did it pretty normally.
Marco is always pretty unique nasally and he also likes the harder R's. Maybe that is a specific note on how Finnish language Metal is sung. I need to note if it happens more
Tony I love you so much.
Me too
Finland has the best heavy singers!
React to Sohyang pleaseeee
Agh, this version is way too meladramatic for my liking. Like others, I know this song as a lullaby. This version is not very soothing, which creates a conflict.
It's technically good, but it just feels *wrong*.
