I'm REALLY happy to hear that this isn't Marko's usual style. I'd never heard him before and I'm excited to hear some of his other things you guys have suggested! This character he was trying to play just didn't do it for me, and I don't regret sharing my opinion on that. 👌❤
You were looking for a different singer? Look for Floor Jansen & Henk Poort ;)
Even Phantom of the Opera author told this is the version how it was intended to be. Problem was in era that Phantom of the Opera went popular and after first version everyone imitated it.
Wanting to be "unique" in this one, you've totally succeed...
Even Utuub's most 'successful' (by views/subscribers) voice coaches have liked this rendition, one after another! So is it dissability to hear skillful execution on singing or narrow - minded liking on vocalization(???) 🙄
But Hey... We are all entitled to our own opinions...
🙈
@jaskau2462 Uh...what an interesting comment. Haha, I wasn't trying to be unique... I was thinking more people might agree with me, but here we are. 🤷♀️
@@HailHeidi Please don't take it personal. We Nightwish fans are actually nice ppl well most of them are but I highly recommend Ever Dream with Floor and Marko or High Hopes by himself.
you are the first person i see on youtube who doesn't like marko's voice
I concur. 🤔
Yes really the first !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes
Yep, i dont get it. He is awesome
He's freaking amazing
I love this version especially because of Marco. For me his harsher vocals makes his voice more phantomy than the classic approach
She may be one of those people. Who only likes listening to a totally clean vocal style.
@@shspurs1342 We all have our taste. But we rock and metal people are full of emotions that we want to share.
I said this full of my point of view.
@@randomnukke546 I’ll put it a different way then. Millions of people like Robert Plants Voice. In my ears he sounds like someone. Doing a take the piss comedy skit version of Steve Marriott.
agree. his voice is just perfect imho.
It's definitely spookier and more atmospheric. I just didn't like the contrast. Loved the reverb and her vibrato, but not the two voices together. Obvioulsy their fans disagree, and that's super cool with me. I love supporting artists.
All I can say is that this is not musical theater. This is metal. And thus the way Marco sings fits like a fist to ones nose. He can sing what ever way he wants. He is that good. He is the most evil phantom of the opera ever. And I love it.
Marko was totally in character for the phantom - I like this much more than the Opera style singers.
To see a totally different side of Marko try Islander from the Tampere concert or While your lips are still red from Wembley.
Marko Hietala s really a fantastic singer and very versatile, he is one of the big names in Finland.
He left the band after the last album due to his general dissatisfaction with the music industry, has taken a year or so of thinking time and is slowly getting back in again with some small projects.
Also High Hopes from the same concert as this one is truly amazing and shows Marko's talent as a singer. Also Jukka and Emppu do a great job as usual
I know, right!? But to each their own.
Yes, Tarja is fantastic. And the dude (😁) is the Finnish national treasure, a man with many kind of tunes and styles. Together they are beyond fantastic. 🙂
Thank you for being so honest in your reaction to this song. Much of the Nightwish fan base, myself included, loves this version particularly because of Marko. His snarly, growly Phantom seems to fit the character better. But, I can see where, if you grew up with the musical version, this one can be a real shock to the system. Marko was with the band for about 20 years, and is a huge part of making the band who they are today. He left the band a few years ago, unfortunately, due to having some depression problems. But, he is now better, and out on his own. Marko is sometimes called the "Father of Metal in Finland" and had a long and varied career before joining Nightwish. He is well loved and appreciated by those who love Nightwish.
Marko's snarly, growly Phantom with an ugly voice hardly could teach Christine Daaé to sing opera( Christine says herself he is an unseen tutor she knows only as the "Angel of Music",she confides that the Angel has visited her and taught her to sing ) 😉
Marko was praised by the original composer of phantom of the opera, because he put so much drama into it to make the phantom sound more crazy/unhinged. His voice suits the phantom perfectly! Every vocalist ive watched is impressed by performance. You're the first person I've watched who isn't impressed by his voice 😂
Most people are in awe of Marco's rendition of the song. Different strokes for different folks.
Hi Heidi! Welcome to Nightwish, and thank you for your authenticity! The male lead (Marko) is capable of singing the way you would have preferred, so this was a style choice that the band selected deliberately. Some people love it and others do not. I personally like it, but it is great to hear how this genuinely landed on you. It sounds like the version you might prefer is this one - ua-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/v-deo.html - which has a male vocalist who sings the Phantom professionally in the musical and a female lead (Floor) who dials back the "opera." Looking forward to seeing more of your honest impressions!
yeah, that is the other awesome version 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 and "kiitos" means "thank you"
Kiitos is the Finnish word for "Thank You".
Well, personally, I have always been pleased with Marco's version of the PHantom :)
Thank you for deciding to continue reacting to Nightwish music, new subscriber here, to follow your journey.
Greetings from Romania!
One thing I love with this particular version is that Marco brings a different aspect of the Phantom, a dark and sinister aspect. Which is relevant 'cause we're taling about a phantom, a ghost. Off course the Phantom has t be seductive but he also has to be kinda scary.
I think Marko's vocals are friggin' amazing, but I appreciate your honesty nevertheless! You might prefer Nightwish's more modern rendition of this song with Floor and guest singer Henk Poort. Henk does add a bit of growl to his voice at times, but he's an opera singer, so you may very well prefer his version!
Wow. Very first time someone wasn’t impressed by Marco’s vocals in this version. I prefer this version over the operatic one. Nightwish is metal, therefore they put their own sound to the piece.😉
Marko Hietala was the heart of the band along with Tarja, he is one of the best singers in the world, I'm sorry you didn't like him
*Of course we miss Marko as a member of the band, same goes for the drummer Jukka Nevalainen. But to say there's no more heart in the band...but if so why does Nightwish still exists ? Maybe because of Emppu and Tuomas? And btw : NO Tuomas = NO Nightwish. And that's a fact.* 🎵🎹🎹🎵🔥🔥😈🔥🔥
Marco is NOT one of the best singers in the world. He's ONLY good at rock. TOM JONES is the TOP 10 BEST SINGER'S IN THE WORLD
@@r.e.4640 And what about DIMASH?
@@NicholasCorvin Yeah you're right. The new heart is Floor. Since 2013 is true that Nighwish lost Marko and Jukka because his health problems, but I think that Nigtwish was born again with Floor. Nevertheless Floor has been in the band for 10 years now ! and Kai 8 years from now
@@r.e.4640 kidding i guess
I dont know how many different reactions I have watched of this performance, but its in the several dozens, and you are the first one to NOT like Marcos voice, everyone else have said that hes the perfecr Phantom etc etc etc xD
Also, when Tarja and Marco sing toghether, its a match made in heaven!
"`Kiitos" means "Thank you"
Marko is one and only real phantom to me. No other phantoms will come even close. He is the star of this version.
Everyone loves his voice, go Marco...the best Phantom ever!
Marko and Tarjas voice on this 🙏💯
I was at this concert, Tarja was feeling really sick and had to go offscene between songs to puke. Still managed to complete this epic farewell concert (she didn't know it was a farewell).
Marco is the final piece to the jigsaw that is Nightwish. Its okay not to like his vocals. Opinions are like onions, they have many layers. Marco for me IS Nightwish.
Please, I'm seeing what's coming next with Marko's comments, don't be too hard on the girl, her opinion is valid like any other, don't kill her hahahaha
Most of us love this version by Marko, where it shows a lot of versatility, I think you're ready for the floor version since you were waiting for one closer to the original
( ua-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/v-deo.html ) , both incredible versions. Thanks for the reaction and the sincerity, not all of us have to like the same thing and that's the beauty!
I'm in awe, I think we've found the first person who wasn't absolutely fangirling over how good Marko was in this, oh well everybody likes something different I guess but wow ... the saying "came for Tarja, stayed for Marko" exists for a reason 😂
Tarja says "Thank You" to their home crowd. and Marco has to be the creepiest Phantom ever !! Love it !!
Marco sings it that way on purpose and I find his view of what Phantom should be more familiar. Before recording this song, Marco said, "I was listening to musical version and I thought, 'OK, I'm not really ready to do this, but maybe I could sing it as a raving madman'" "Why a madman if he's just in love?" "Of course he's crazy! Guy was just hiding under a mask in sewers. Of course he's not crazy, he's just in love!"
That one person who always comments "come for Tarja, stay for Marko" needs to find something else to write this time apparently :D
I'm so glad you loved Tarja's voice though!!! I adore her, she has a beautiful rich, clear and dark voice and she's so talented!
If this phantom asks me, I sing the “Traviata” if necessary. The best phantom in history, forever...
Tarja, the symphonic metal goddess
Look at the version where they feature Henk Poort. It is a Dutch Opera singer (Who did play the phantom in the musical in the 90's) who embraced Metal music (a little) and happens to be a personal friend of Floor Jansen.
I love this version way more.
I love this version and Marko's voice. I think it's the first time I've heard that someone doesn't like his voice in this song 😀, but that's fine, we all like different things. Tarja sings Phantom of the Opera often in her solo career.
This is the 2012 version where the male voice is more operatic but still a rock version. ua-cam.com/video/RYzmAQMsR2c/v-deo.html,
My favorite version with her is from 2019, it's a fan recording and you can't see Fantom because he's on the balcony, but the sound is very good. This is a version closer to the original, not very rock. ua-cam.com/video/279ML6zpSuc/v-deo.html
Then Floor Jansen also has her versions, their current singer who has sung Fantom several times since 2019, but she has a different approach, not a lyrical soprano like Tarja, but her versions are also very popular among fans. I think the original musical didn't even require a lyric soprano.
Oh, i love Marko's voice and screaming ... it's the soul of the Phantom. Great guy! You might be the first reactor ever, who doesn't was blown away by his voice ... ^^+gg XD
I appreciate your opinion and expressing it respectfully. He does have an amazing voice and can change tweak it to match the song. I do think you’ll like if not love some of his other stuff, although many people consider this one of the best interpretations of the phantom. I look forward to watching your journey progress and to see which direction your opinion evolves. Cheers!
Wow. I can't even recall the number of reactions I've seen for this and you're legit the first person to (for the lack of a better term) shit on Marko like that. To each their own, I absolutely get that.
Just know that you'll be haunted by pretty much every single Nightwish fan for hurting the precious Marko. Dude is absolutely insane on all kinds of levels.
It's also funny because usually, react channels react to this video for Tarja, but it ALWAYS ends up being about Marko, because of the way he is and what he can do. I'd be absolutely LYING if I said I wasn't clicking this video for a Marko reaction. I got a little sad by what you said, but yeah I get it, it's not for everyone I guess.
For me, this is peak Nightwish, this is the Nightwish I discovered and loved. Marko and Tarja go together like PB&J...bread & butter...cookies & milk.
Marko can definitely sing great cleans; his vocal choices, imo, are them bringing a metal grit to the song. It's dark, about the Phantom posessing the singer, so the grit fits perfectly giving a sinister shading the song desperately needs. Not too long ago in July 2023, Marko and Tarja did a rendition in Switzerland, the first time they'd performed together in 18 years. ua-cam.com/video/a2Uhb3Ha0EQ/v-deo.html In this one, he dials back the grit, and along with the slower pace, it feels more like the original musical.
Definitely don't give up on Marko; he's got some great vocals in other NW songs, as well as his original band Tarot and the supergroup Northern Kings. I really recommend you check out Tarot (Ashes to the Stars, I Walk Forever, Wings of Darkness), and on the NW side While Your Lips Are Still Red, The Islander, Master Passion Greed for Marko, and Over The Hills, Wishmaster, Nemo, The Siren, & The Pharoh Sails To Orion for peak Tarja.
Appreciate the reaction as always!
I take daily Floor Jansen voice every day for almost 10 years now, so its obvious where my loyality lies here lol. HOWEVER Tarja is undeniably original spirit of the Nightwish and one of the most talented sopranos ever lived. What a legend.
also..... Marco..........
that;s called "The beauty and the beast" kind of singing. He is doing it on purpose and it's used a lot in gothic metal bands.
Marko best Phantom !! Andrew Lloyd Weber Loves this Version also!
Marko was amazing, and he is a master singuer for this band
Marco is a top singer. His voice fits totally in this song. The Phantom should be like that, growly. He is not a friend, is a Phantom!
Hi Heidi, greetings from UK 😊
Because Marko didn't do it for you, how aout Floor & Henk? Henk used to play The Phantom in the Dutch version of the musical ua-cam.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/v-deo.html
this interpretation is great, his voice fits totally to the story, This reminds me of 'The beauty and the beast'.🤩
Trust me Marko can definitely sing..this is not what he can bring. High Hopes, Ever Dream, Islander are among the best from Marko. Also I'm shocked that you think he was bad, he went higher than Tarja for a couple of seconds too.
Man see? You misunderstand just as the reaction did. This IS singing and this IS one aspect of what he can bring. She has no idea how difficult it is to sing with such expression, with a clear tone and the vocal fry added underneath. For a better understanding look at vocal coach reactions to this song. Heidi ought to as well. Knowlege and understanding is power.
Marco is the real phantom of opera!
Well, you are so wrong about Marco. He just play a role in this song. He is very talented singer. BTW he won Masked Singer competition here in Finland. 😅Tohtori - Goodbye yellow brick road | Masked Singer Suomi | MTV3 ua-cam.com/video/7IPEyOyl7f0/v-deo.html Tohtori: The Reveal (with English subtitles) - Masked Singer Suomi ua-cam.com/video/vHZDDlfKmuE/v-deo.html
Interesting fact and fun rumor. The two singers here are Tarja and Marko. Tarja was fired in 2005 and Marko left in 2021. Rumor has it that Tarja & Marko will be collaborating on an album. Tarja is currently on tour and Marko has been making appearances with her on stage.
It's Tarja and it was recorded in 2005, but if you like that song, I recommend you check out Floor's interpretation of it and Tommy from her husband's band (Sabaton) has done an interpretation of the song as well, which you should probably like
and both Tommy and Floor have done many interpretations on their own channels

Finland mentioned! ❤ 🇫🇮 I love Nightwish w/ Tarja! Miss those days...
Love your honesty. About Marko, maybe the song the Islander will change your mind. He's such a talented singer, a great character too. A big part of the emotional part of Nightwish 🤟 BTW, i was not sure too at the beginning, then i quickly change my mind 😁 tx for the react from Québec Canada 🇲🇶🇨🇦🖐️
Typing on this old phone on this site getting hard. Will do my best to give insights. Marco joined NW in 2001. 2nd bassist. 1st dedicated male vocalist. Bedfore him from 96 to 01 either Tuomas (keyboards/composer sang or a guest did. Often times the literal and figurative giant of Finnish metal Tapio Wilska. A hint Tuomas is 6'5". Tapio is a few inches taller and much broader then him. Tarja by comparison is 5'4¹½". Marko about 6'2". He had some classical training. No doubt some from Tarja. The lady has been singing since about age 3. Age 6 gave her 1st church recital. Sang in highschool. Moved to a school of music to get her secondary education. Then to a German Music academy where she was able after a break to tour with NW, her masters in music. She has trained to sing different genres and styles over the 25 years of her career. Solo from 2006 on. Marko and Tarja often played off the theme of beauty and the beast, ( I will let you guess which was which😂).
Andrew's Lloyd Webber did like this version as his favourite non stage version
Someone said it best imho that this version sounds like it was sung by adults not teens/young adults. A valid choice. It is Nightwish's version of the song. Written around the time of the movie with Emmy Rossum and Gerald Butler. These two ruin that version for sounding weak and hollow in my ears. But quite right, love what you do,for whatever reason. Apologies to no one. Taste is in the ear of the listener. They only were together in the band 4 years. But the chemistry between them is undeniable, close friends. Maybe brother sister type bond. Marko is 10 years ~ her senior. They made beautiful music together. And after this night they have shared a stage 3 times. The festival in Switzerland was Sat July 08,2023. No denying how happy they were to share the stage together again.
If you want to see his more classical softer side, there is the 1st reunion on Finnish tv in Xmas 2017. They sang Ave Maria together.
Or from this same concert you might try another song they sing together called Siren. And oh boy is Tarja ever a siren. It has the backing of The London Symphony and Metro Choir Voices. 1st used on the 5th album Once (04). Which this was the last date of back in Helsinki, at the then named Hartwell arena. 11,500 in attendance. October 21,2005 (a Friday ). There's plenty of footage over the years of classic NW. End of an Era taken from the name of the DVD released the following summer. At the time it was called Once upon a tour. The name came from Tarja's departure.
96 to 05 as ⅓ of the founding members, Tuomas and Emppu lead guitar.
I think Marko makes the best villain ever in Phantom of the opera and the combination of their voices is the best ever.
Absolutely fantastic performance of this classic. In other versions, the villain is just lame after hearing Marko.
All Nightwish songs are epic!🤘🎸
Hello. Nice reaction. Tarja is really amazing!!
Greetings Heidi.
No doubt the Marko faithful are here making their voices heard. lol
He really is an awesome singer, however, one would question that after this performance.
Yup, you guessed it...
Not his best performance in my opinion as well. He was really over the top on this one.
On a positive note, you will never hear this again as you continue your Nightwish journey.
😂
"The Islander" is great if you want to hear him on lead vocal.
Or you can do a Floor song with him called "Ever Dream".
Im sure The Islander will be suggested heavily since 100% of the comments are about Marko.
Here's the link for The Islander...
ua-cam.com/video/Zo8ncK_5kzc/v-deo.html
And Ever Dream...
ua-cam.com/video/1Xi4n8dJcF8/v-deo.html
...just in case.
Don't mind the negative comments and always give us your honest opinion.
We do appreciate your honesty.
Thanks for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed.
😊❤️🤘🤘😢
The dude................:)
LOL
Think you gonne love The Dude in the song Everdream.
Tear it up!
Yeah there is an performance from Nederlands where Floor sings with Henk Poort with Nightwish
The dude is an amazing singer. Yeah you expected his vocals to be like those other Phantoms of the Opera: clean vocals. He can sing clean vocals, but little vocal distortion to the voice, and that's the chef kiss stuff! Btw: some people think Tarja sang all songs like this (highly operatic and clear voice). No, no. She also sings with soft and sweet vocals, both classical and contemporary. Liseten for example "From Wishes to Eternity" 2000 Tampere concert, and most of the songs are sung completely different than this. There's so many approaches. - Many, many people actually love the style Marco played Phantom's role in this.
Didn't know you do music videos. I had seen a few of your other reactions. Was surprised when I saw a Nightwish reaction.
I agree in this song he let the show down, she is an amazing singer
Marko can sing any way he wants. You don't want a different singer, you want him to use a different style. Check out Kiss While Your Lips Are Still Red for a softer, gentler version of Marco: ua-cam.com/video/5V7PKv493Ic/v-deo.html
Totally fair and I can agree with this!
Nightwish - Nemo was radio hit ion Finland. I would love to see your reaction to it.
Honestly, thanks for being honest, lol. 99% of the reaction channels only pander to the audience requesting the song, and are very insincere about the performance, in order not to upset anyone.
If you didn't like the male vocalist, that's absolutely fine. It makes sense if you were expecting a performance similar to that of the musical. His approach is very different, and there's nothing wrong about you being honest about it.
Lo amo al amigo!! Jaja es marko, el bajista. Y Tarja es lo más hermoso y dulce que hay.. oira cantar te hace bien! Linda reaccion
Im not going to be too harsh about this since a) its your personal opinion and each to their own, and b) your new to NW, so arent familiar with Marko. To answer your question 'do you guys like him?.... Is he a usual part of the band?', no we don't like him, we absolutely LOVE him! He was the bass player and second singer, and occasional co-songwriter, for Nightwish for 20 years, and is a much loved member of the band...because of his voice and his talent. I can tell you, having seen them live, there is nothing 'forced' in Markos voice - he can go from super aggressive to soft and gentle, and has an impressive falsetto. Basically, the man is a legend and an influential figure in European metal. To get a wider perspective on Marko as a singer, you could check out The Islander, or their cover of Pink Floyd's 'High Hopes', or his solo song 'Dead Gods Son'. Obviously, his voice might still just not be to your taste, and if so thats fine, but you might also find his voice more to your liking on those songs.
He's just as good in Tarot, his original band (with his brother on guitar).
@@Shifuede 100%
Marko just sang as a perfect Phantom. I think the voice was perfectly fitting the character. Much better than the movie, where the phantom have a clean voice doesn't go with the 'horrific' character.
This is my favourite version of Phanton because of Marco voice. He was incredible here
Think you wasn´t ready to accept a different more evil approach of the phantom and probably awaiting a nice hero kind of guy/singer.
In the usual versions the phantom always sounds very nice and kind of adorable which imo doesn´t match the character at all at least at the time that this song comes up in the musical.
So for me his more evil sounding phantom fits perfect to a character who should give you some scary vibes and not some "oh what a nice phantom he is" vibes.
I think you can sound evil without sounding... I don't know how to explain it, but... like hingy? I was hoping he'd bring a more metal take, but it just didn't work for me. Glad people like it, though!
We adore Marco.
She said thank you in Finnish
I understand, specially you have not used to listen that kind of growl. But he's actually amazing singer and he does not have to force anything, he has over 3 octave range.
I think this is best version ever made :) But there is new version, 18 years later and there is Floor and Henk Poort, might be more to your taste. ua-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/v-deo.html
Greetings from Finland! 🤘🎶 🖤 🎸🇫🇮
Interesting interpretation of Marko's voice. UA-cam has several prima opera soprano reactors who actually were so taken by Marko's voice that they spent more time on his performance than Tarja's. He has an amazing, versatile voice. He and Floor blend so well vocally. Tarja has embraced a more versatile vocal style since leaving Nightwish, and for 18 years has been releasing wonderful music. Phantom was my introduction to Nightwish. Love all their singers, all their songs. I do hope you listen to more. Try Ever Dream, from the same Wacken 2013 concert.
I'm just saying... Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam 2022 Nightwish Live feat. Henk Poort.
Henk was one of A.L.Webber's favorite phantoms. So this version was kept a bit more classic and Floor shines at the end with a 12 second F6 high note!!!
I feel like it might be a good idea to give Marko another chance with Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red (Live at Wembley Arena).
There is also a version with Floor Jansen and Henk Poort. Henk's voice is more traditional, but I like the Tarja and Marko version more.
Aww. I adore Marko. I enjoyed your reaction anyway. If you choose to explore more Nightwish, i would not be surprised if his amazing voice and stage presence wins you over.
This is the first time I ever heard someone not enjoy Marko lol. This version of Phantom was created heavier because Nightwish is a symphonic metal band. The combination of Tarja's rich dark classical vocals and Marko's rough metal vocals created pure magic!! It was not intended to simply be a cover. May I suggest reacting to their tribute to Pink Floyd's song "High Hope", Marko is stunning in that song and you will get to hear just how good he is
Actually you are the first one (that o know of) that got the pronouncement of Tarjas name, wohoo good job!
Regarding Markos voice, you can't be wrong since that is your opinion, we just have to accept it.
I am just thankful that you did an other Nightwish song, and I hope for more.
Do Storytime or Ever Dream from Wacken 2013! ❤
Hy..you are neither wrong nor right..the Dude is Marco Hietala,and for those not used to european metal can be dificult but not impossible to understand(more like an aquired taste) ,he was with Nightwish from 2002 until 2021,,,the voice of the PHANTOM must be scarry ,otherwise what's the use?...so i consider this version to be the most accurate one,sometimes i wish that this version was in the movie...i cannot express in words how difficult is to sing like Marco,,,Ask any gui to try and imitate that if you need top convince yourself..But if you want to hear his normal voice then listen to "while your lips are still red by Nightwish"and prepare tisues 🤣🤣sorry for my bad english
Greets from germany
Everyone has their own opinions as to what sounds right for them....if you want a more traditional male lead try Nightwish.. Floor n Henk's version. Personally I think Marco makes this song special....hes one of the best singers around....he gives it power....nothing strained in his vocals...and he gives the "phantom" a fear factor that is missing to me in all other versions....but...you tell it as you see it...if we all liked the same things wouldn't the world be a boring place....
yeah, you should hear Ever Dream - from that same concert. Best song and performance of all time for Nightwish.
oldies but goldies
I love Marko in this version, maybe you like floors version with Henk Poort and Nightwish better in the Ziggo Dome
in Amsterdam 2022...greets from the Netherlans
This version is Webbers favorite, call him and let him know!
TARJA y Marko ❤❤❤
Aww, I love Marcos' take on this. There is a newer version with Floor and Hank Poort guests and sings the phantom part. It's awesome but I personally prefer this one. Plus I might be weird, but to see Floor's and Henk's take on this song, I personaly prefer when they did it on the TV show "Bestie Zangers". The concert is decent as well, but I always like it when reactors do the TV version. It's so good. And you sort of see another side of Floor.
I soured on Nightwish after their treatment of Tarja when she was ousted from the band.
Yes sooooo long ❤️ Austria is with you 🤟🙏🤟
First time I heard this with Nightwish I thought the same thing about the male voice too
But after hearing it a number of this I think his voice i kind of perfect for the song theme.. after all it is a conversation between the young soprano and the scary phantom that she hears in her head
Heidi, watch the version with Henk Poort. He was the original singer of the musical The fantom of the opera in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 👌🏽
Greetings 🙏
If you don't know Band-Maid or The Warning you need to dip your toes in their music.
Marko is the best phantom ❤
The best part of this song is Marko. It's specially hard to do her part (many vocal coaches are amazed with his skills cause doing vibrato + scream is mind blowing) in a way that only a few vocalists can interpret the phantom like this. And the best part is the blending with Tarja's voice while contrasting hers. I can understand you don't like it because is your taste. But if you check out the last interpretation of Nightwish (Floor + Poort) which is also amazing, you'll see the difference.
OMG, disliking Marko’s voice is like Nightwish blasphemy… 🤪
By the way, there is a newer version with floor featuring Henk Poort. You should definitely check that one out.
One of the best male vocalists out there. Sorry you couldn't feel it.
I see you put some face gesture when you saw the drummer at the beggining... This was the last show with Tarja before she leaved. The thing is that she didn't knew it . That's why all af them seems like to be so emotional
Swapping out Marco? Who was the best singer in this performance? Fuck no.
You could search for Tarja instead of nightwish, phantom of the opera. She has performed it on her own shows with other male singers.
I would also recommend Floor singing "vilja lied" from the dutch tv show beste zanger, well practically all the songs she sings in that show ;-)
marko ist simply the most interesting phantom ever!
Her not liking Markos singing voice when million do. Is like me not liking Robert Plants singing voice when millions do. Music at the end of the day is all about what sounds people like.
