      It is not underestimated, it is known in all corners of the world, we know, because in other videos people of other languages and races send messages commenting on how much they admire this fantastic band.
      If you are referring to awards in the US, it is not important. They are a great band and their music is liked all over the world.

    What made these sessions possible was COVID-19. This kind of classic venue with good acoustics and in the middle of Helsinki would be way too expensive on normal times, but because of the pandemic it was not and we got to enjoy the excellent acoustics of the hall this way.
    One of those times you don't need effects, you just mic the whole room.

    Control (the video game by Remedy) featured 'Poets of the Fall' as the band 'Old Gods of Asgard' with a heavier song called 'Take Control' during the Ashtray Maze level.
    The 'Ashtray Maze' game level on its own is superb, with the 'Take Control' song by 'Poets of the Fall' taking it to the next level (pun intended).

      The variant of the song in the game is dynamically adjusted to match the speed the player advances through the maze. If you advance really slowly, the song will have parts that repeat, if you play really fast, you might miss part of the guitar solo.
      The official variant has the "optimal" length:

      I would give this request a hundred 👍's if I could, to get you to play this live version of Carnival of Rust (live in Moscow). Everyone wants reactors to listen to the official music video, which is very artistic and good, but I feel the video takes away from Marko's awesome voice and he adds some great ornamentation to his voice in this live version!!

    Thanks for showcasing my favorite band! The piano is, I believe, a C7 model concert grand (based on my piano tuning knowledge). Make sure you watch the other Alexander Theatre Sessions. The band has a tremendous range and diversity of styles which they perform flawlessly, in my opinion. Don't neglect their music videos based on their studio albums. People typically begin with their "Carnival of Rust" music video which has won awards which will become obvious once you've seen it. Each band member is an excellent musician. Olli's guitar solos are out of this world, and Marko's falsetto work is extraordinary.

    Poets of the Fall - "LIFT" with Lyrics. (It's live in Moscow) Full band up-tempo pop rock song. Not as serious as most of their songs. Quite a good live band. Nice crowd involvement.
    Poets of the Fall - "DAZE" (Official Video) Marko has a very nice falsetto.

    First time I’ve heard these guys. Great voice and great lyrics. Do they always do piano only instrumentation? I’d love it if they’d jumped into a hard rock arrangement about halfway through with an emotional heavy blues guitar solo, but that’s me. 🤷🏻‍♂️Be pretty sick though 😂. Overall it’s still a beautiful tune done well. 🤘🏼🎹🎼🎤😀✌🏼🔥

    • @morosh_ka
      @morosh_ka 10 місяців тому +6

      It's only several songs during these sessions, their range is diverse, but not too heavy. Melodies and lyrics are beautiful, though, I definetely recommend to listen to their misic :)

    • @giftofthewild6665
      @giftofthewild6665 10 місяців тому +3

      They usually do rock (electric guitars, occasionally with acoustic guitars + drums, bass & synth). They've made acoustic versions of some of their songs which are just amazing (I prefer the acoustic versions tbh but I'm a classical fan as well as a rock fan 😂).

    Great reaction. The theatre is named after Alexander II. It was built for the Russians living in Helsinki and it opened in 1880 during the time when Finland was an autonomous part of Russian Empire. Good thing about Finnish music scene is, that there's not really genre barriers as such. Good music is good music, good people mingle and people do what they enjoy. Like in this one, on which Tuomas Holopainen made a soundtrack for Scrooge's graphic novel: "TUOMAS HOLOPAINEN - A Lifetime of Adventure (OFFICIAL VIDEO)". It's fun to read an interview, in which Holopainen tells about a joyful trip to Disney World he made with Alexi Laiho. Both being Disney and theme park fans. Here's a kind of a Live Aid type of 20th anniversary good vibe song (in Finnish) for a Finnish metal festival illustrating how people come together: "Tuska20 - The Anniversary Song". And then there's this for the children of all ages: "Hevisaurus - 100". Naturally every year, if possible, Metal musicians go on a "Raskasta Joulua" (Heavy Christmas) Christmas tour: "Raskasta Joulua - Tulkoon joulu". Kind of who's who songs. I don't know, if you've already come across this one, but it crosses the genre lines: "Thunderstruck by Steve'n'Seagulls (LIVE)".

    Many of their songs that I love have already been requested, but my favorite guilty pleasure is their live studio cover of the song "You Know My Name". Its the theme song from the James Bond movie "Casino Royale". They really seem to enjoy playing it and look great in their James Bond style tux's!!
