- Welcome to JustTenMoreMinutes aka JTMM aka The Freakin 10! I have covered a lot of bands now and I can count on two hands the bands that captured my attention off the bat. The tone of this lead singer is just perfection. The lyrics and visuals are cool but that tone is just awesome!! More More More!

This video clip is very artistic, romantic, poetic and creative. I agree that this work is enough to start loving this band.
Keep in mind that the singing is the same live, no extended mixing needed.
That doesn't shock me, his voice is just freaking perfect
This is my first time seeing a video from you and that was an amazing reaction!
Fun fact! This music video was chosen as the best Finnish music video ever made! Also about the meaning. PotF never give out any official meaning for their songs so that everyone can have their own pure opinions about the songs.
The amazing side of this band is that they can pull off any kind of sound! They have soft ballads, cinematic rock, synth rock, pop rock, hard rock EVERYTHING!
I highly recommend you check out their music video - Requiem for My Harlequin - It's the lead single from their 9th studio album - Ghostlight - that released earlier this year and the music video is absolutely PHENOMENAL!
I can't wait honestly. This really got my attention and I think you see the genuine interest on my face. The tone still gets me 15 hours later lol. I have added that one to my list and welcome to the craziness that is my brain hahaha
@@JTMMTV Sparkles don't forget they can do country ( grinder's blues) and metal ( Take control) these guys are incredible
@@JTMMTV Agree with YA BOI Sparkle: Requiem for My Harlequin should be next, mostly because it is so recent (April of 2022) and provides a good comparison between 2006 and 2022.
@@JTMMTV Also recommend the official music videos for "My Dark Disquiet" and "The Sweet Escape." Can't get much more diverse than those two songs are from each other.
This was fun to watch...you reacted just like me when I first heard them!! 😄 The whole band is good, but it's Marko's calming tone that grabbed me. And he has that same tone throughout most of his songs, yet the songs don't all sound alike. I literally listen to them for hours on Spotify (and UA-cam) without ever getting bored! I've been a listener of yours for a little while, but this put me over and made me a Subscriber! More POTF please! 😁 I think you'll love songs from the Alexander Theater Sessions (like the acoustic guitar you hear in this song, or songs like Angel which just features a piano with Marko's voice). Also love sons from their latest album like "Hello Caberet", "Lust for Life", and "Beyond the Horizon".
Thanks Kurt, I appreciate it and I was sitting here thinking I do have Saturday's and Sunday's open for another rabbit hole lol. Trust me more coming!
@@JTMMTV ...Yesss!! 🤘
Omg yes, his voice is mesmerising. Such a delicious tone. I can't get enough❤❤❤

I might be the culpable person with my comment on the Auri video. Glad you liked it. Can’t really go wrong with them but some of the live stuff is cool and especially the Alexander theater sessions (angel) in particular. Having said said that, the Alexander theater sessions might not be the most representative of the band as it’s stripped down acoustic versions of their songs.
If you were, thank you I just absolutely freaking loved this!!!!
Plz angel from Alexander theater sessions
I can understand your reaction to "Carnival of Rust", as it was my first exposure to Poets of the Fall last year, and I ended up buying all of their albums.
Yes, they're that freaking good.
There latest album is such a banger , there singer Marko are awesome :)
Great reaction :)
If you want to hear more of them react to the POTF-Angel Alexander theater unplugged. You will LOVE IT!❤❤❤❤❤
I first heard this song when I was 10 years old, right around when it was released, and it's not exaggerated to say I fell in love with it at first listen. Nowadays I get a mad wave of nostalgia as soon as I hear the intro. Glad to see you enjoyed it too!
If you want to hear more from Poets, Brighter Than The Sun is my personal favorite.
Poets of the Fall became my favorite band from the very moment I'd heard "The Poet and the Muse" (a song from the game Alan Wake that plays in-game, the band using the fictional name "Old Gods of Asgard"). I add my request to the ones that had told you to listen to "Angel" from the Alexander Theater Sessions and -personal request- "Requiem for my Harlequin". Thanks for the reaction!
I have them on my list and thank you for checking it out!
Alexander theatre live...song called "Angel "that is also one beautiful song..
Added!
I've been listening to the Poets for about 10 years now and by this point their music is just part of my personality. I never tire of hearing it. And Marko's voice ... I'm honestly convinced there is nothing that man can't sing if he puts his mind to it. His falsetto is insane, he can do a really rough, gritty metal sound, he does these beautiful ballads ... I'll listen to anything if Marko sang it and it would all sound amazing. I sincerely hope you enjoy your trip down this particular rabbit hole.
I haven't checked your other vids yet but I can see you did a reaction to "Late Goodbye" so let me be the one to recommend "Beyond the Horizon" and "Requiem for my Harlequin" from their latest album Ghostlight. Also, the Poets are well known for doing video game soundtracks ("War" is from Alan Wake, for example). The name they use for that is "Old Gods of Asgard" so please check out "Balance Slays the Demon" by them as well.
It's said about this guy's voice (Marko Saaresto), that he could sing a darn phone book, and it would still sound amazing.
They have released new album Ghostlight. First single Requiem for my Harlequin is an amazing song, became one of my favorites instantly. You should check it out. And if you want a good demostration of Marko's voice check Alexander Theatre Session Angel. One of the most beautiful songs ever.
I cannot wait, I have them both added!
As you mentioned emotional songs, I think you might like Dancing on Broken Glass from PotF. The video that goes with it is really good and packs a twist at one point that made me look at the message in the song differently from what I got from it at the start, an emotional gut punch.
It's amazing that somebody with 2nd language can do such lyrics. I usually don't give f about lyrics as long they go with music. There are exceptions and this is one.
Given&Denied and Moonlight Kissed have the most beautiful lyrics from POTF
I have them on the list, I will add one of their songs to Friday's Free for All Friday!
Given & Denied is my favorite song by them, lyrics are pure poetry!

Got em all down! Thanks!
Always glad to see someone cover Poets of the Fall. I'll second a recommendation for the haunting "Where do we draw the line", but I'll also shout out the song that introduced me to them all the way back in 2003 when I wasn't even really aware of the European music scene: "The Late Goodbye" from their debut album. I discovered it because it was featured as the theme for the video game Max Payne 2 and fit it beautifully --woops, found the reaction to "late goodbye" 10 minutes after my post, thumbs up
We all love them ❤️
Lately I've been hooked on Poets of the Fall, The Rasmus (Finland), Mystery (Canada), and The Tea Party (Canada). All 4 bands have strong unique singers and great musicians...check them out.
This is amazing. Glad you like them. This song hooked me, Dawn sort of landed me and Daze cemented my love for the band. There are so many songs they have done that are just amazing!! If I may suggest (if someone hasn't mentioned it already) Skin and Temple of Thought. Look forward to seeing your reactions to them.
Good reaction to this wonderful band and video.
I think the lyrics represent our lust for material things in our life to the extent
of greed.
The more we lust after things we do not need encourages the rain creating rust or decay in our lives. The ending of the video tells us that the fortune teller is our heart or soul,
The lady in the gas mask without her senses cannot hear the message and the tarot cards
at the side of the booth change with her emotions.
we are left to wonder at the end if she returns to the carnival of rust representing her mind.
The fortune teller (her heart) has the answer to her discontent as the ticket is released from the booth cor cordis or cordium.
Heart of Hearts what is in your heart of hearts
The follow on to this Requiem for my Harlequin is great to
Just as 'Eddie Wilson' aka Michael Pare said in the movie Eddie and the Cruisers, "Words and music." This band provides the listeners with both.
Carnival of rust is how i was introduced to the band as well. Its awesome to see someone discover them. Interesting how different our interpretations are though. Based on the setting of the video, I think it's a representation of purgatory or hell. The lyrics seem to suggest a guy who is obsessed with someone, possibly stalking someone, possibly in an abusive relationship with them. But one day the other person starts to stand up for themselves and threaten to leave, so in desperation, they try to make them come back by saying they're worthless without them, a carnival of rust if you will. Now with this in mind, think about the first verse. It's like he's asking if you feel greedy or guilty when you say "God help me," when you know you're in the wrong. Going back to the video, being trapped in a box watching your love "fight for her freedom" (the break the plate game) seems like a punishment. The gas mask could represent the toxic relationship she's in. The doll could be a companion to comfort her as she leaves. If you remember, she was startled when he came to life. And then the spiral, the roller coaster, it's like he was trying to hypnotize her. But she was ending the cycle of abuse. Sorry for the long spiel. Thanks for listening.
In the comments below, there are so brilliant suggestions already, but for the fun of it consider this, Carnival of Rust live from Moscow 2013, and then The Alexander Theatre Session episode 12, and you also have version recorded at Genelec studios. So 3 more versions and you'll find that each have their own personalities somehow.
Love it! Got them all!
After listening the song 'Poets of the Fall - Angel (Alexander Theatre Sessions / Episode 7)' you will never be the same!! Just trust me! You will love the lyrics, sound and singing.
Yes, Beautiful, go to Alexander theatre,,
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮
Just his voice in live, piano and a ballad: "Angel (Alexander Theatre Sessions)".
..."War", "Late Goodbye" and "Where do we draw the line" would be great followup songs 😊
Added!
Great band👍🇫🇮!
Oh and try their first, the song that was in the Max Payne game, that so many asked about.. Late Goodbye song.
Added!
More great bands from Finland: Amorphis, Beast In Black, Apocalyptica (there is song with Sabaton singer too 😉, Battle Beast...
With Poets check Alexander Theatre Session! Angel, Rebirth... My favorites ❤️ Also Moonlight Kissed, Sweet Escape, Illusion and Dream, Choice Millionaire, Cradled In Love, War...
I have covered Beast in Black - Freaking love em! and have the others on my list. Apocalyptica sounds familiar. Didn't they do something with Metallica or Metallica did something like Apocalyptica lol. Was a long time ago.
Battle Beast might show up today hahahaha *I am recording today's and saw them in the list*
@@JTMMTV they started playing Metallica covers yes. And they have performed with them too. But there are many great collabs with different singers too. Nowdays they have own singer Franky Perez. Many great songs with him and only instrumental.
@@JTMMTV great 😄
OMG I AM HOOKED ON BATTLE BEAST!!!!!!! Just recorded Master of Illusion and my friend......WOW
Good but the video is what really made it.
13:42 I'm sure it's just allergies. Not being moved by the song or anything. I never get emotional after going back to the old potf stuff no sir.
Btw .... what happened with your "Excel-lists" ??? 😉🤣
Sooooo my son ran into a problem while I was away from YT and formatted the drive thinking it would fix it...without backing stuff up first. So I moved to Google sheets but now using Trello. If anyone k ows what Trello is they might get what I do for a living lol.
For having 'Lyricist Reacts' I expected more... reaction to lyrics or anything of that sort tbh. I like the song, so when you pause and say the lyrics and praise their voice has close to zero worth - I already know that they have a good voice.
POTF has made a lot of music for Remedy games, Max Payne, Alan Wake, Control etc.
More of them to come, I absolutely love them already
