If I remember right...Emppu got 3 guitars on tour.......the purple one he is using always on stage.........a white one as a reserve.....and a purple one with beautifull airbrush which he is using only backstage........
The purple one is quite old, I don`t know exactly how old, but far more than a decade .......but he doesn`t want to change......says a lot about his personal connection to that intrument.
hey HC 🐕
@@MegaDog555 hey Mega meet tomorrow?
He has a white version he uses on certain songs during the show including Ghost Love Score.
@@Boa_Omega end of era wishmaster white ev
Actually the white one is Standard tuning andthe purple is drop D
Tarja's voice is so beautiful in this, dark and smooth 🙏🏽❣ I love this song!
Marco will always be my favorite Nightwish vocalist.
He will always be missed in Nightwish... 😢
@@michael.albinus Yes he most certainly will be missed in Nightwish, but I'm happy that he seems to have found more peace in his life now.
@@tribblefluffer I concur. 🤗
Nobody beats Floor in my opinion
@@Whateve909 It's a half-joke because Marko is the longest standing vocalist of Nightwish. :P
If we're talking three leads, Floor is definitely my favorite. Tarja and Anette are both amazing but they don't hit the spot like Floor does.
Well, Tarja is the Siren. Tarja has that dark, magical sound to her voice.
I love this story of a Siren who is trying to lure the sailor to the depths of the ocean with her.
Of course, Tarja being the Siren (her having the voice of a siren) and Marko being the sailor (having not so ethereal sound, more rough sound)
I love how the story progresses. At first Marko's lyrics are:
''Who tied my hands to the wheel?''
Then in the second chorus the sailor realises he tied himself to the wheel:
''I tied myself to the wheel.''
All the while in the background Tarja is chanting "Come to me!"
Definitely another master piece written by Tuomas❤ Thank you!!!
The lyrics there are a nod to Homer's Odyssey as well - in that Odysseus ordered all his men to stuff their ears full of wax to let them sail past the sirens without hearing their hypnotizing voices, but had himself bound to the ship's mast so that he could hear their song but not jump overboard and drown in his efforts to reach them.
Tuomas said he got the inspiration to this song from reading a story in a newspaper about a woman in Scotland who did go down to the shore to play violin and dolphins came to listen. Check out the lyrics to this song. We don't hear or see much of Tuomas solos, but here is one. One of my favorite songs.
Great pick ,Jeff.
Yes, End of an Era was in Helsinki. Hartwall Arena Oct 21, 2005. Last stop on the tour for the Once album, the record this song comes from. I think you already knew it was Tarja's last with Nightwish.
One of my favorite Tarja era songs. Song #6 in the set, right after Phantom of the Opera. Tarja IS a siren, she lured you in lol. Marko kills it in the sailor role. Love Tuomas' keyboard solo. Northern Kings is the band your thinking of with Marko ,and the 80's covers.
Check out Planet Hell from this concert, more Tarja and Marko together.
I heard of version with Floor ..I absolutely love her voice but not so much on this song ..This truly is a Tarja song ..
I concur on both counts
I concur
THANKS!!!! Always a wonderful breakdown to Nightwish.
In the old days Emppu used two guitars, a different purple one tuned to drop d, and a white one tuned to e/standard. He would switch out guitars for the song. Around the time of Once they just started writing everything for d. I believe they even changed the older songs, because I never saw him swapping out guitars on the Decades show. He does travel with three ESP's now days. His main purple. A white one ready to go in case he has an issue mid show. And lastly a black one that i have never seen him play, but I think he writes/composes with it.
I’m loving your NW reactions, there are still many you didnt listen I hope u continue.
Marco...... he's so bloody good!!!
Almost peed when you said my name 😂😂😂Thank you so much brother .Made my day
Maybe need to visit those rest stops a little more often…….😰😉
@northof4912 I was home on my couch ..Wasnt expecting the shout out . Pleasant surprise
That moment at the end of the song when Tuomas leans down his head, maybe realising this is the last performance of The siren from Tarya with Nightwish.
Love all of them. No band has moved me more in a long time.
This is one of those rare gems where we can not only enjoy Tarja's vocals at her very best, but also have a synth solo. We hear lots of guitar solos but not synths
Eric, I have one more suggestion for you. I guarantee you that you have never heard Nightwish in this style :D Nightwish - Slow Love Slow live Montreux Jazz Festival 2012. Nightwish at the Jazz Festival should intrigue you. You have to see. Greetings from Poland.
This song is also co-written with Emppu! One of my favourites from the Once album for sure, Tarja really gets to shine
I memtioned elsrwhere and we will seenin later solo concerts where Tarja has a full orchestra and choir backing her. It feels like a cheat mode for a video game. Her years of training in Lied or chamber music pay off im spades.
You might have heard after 18 years from this show Tarja and Marko joined forces on stage for The Phantom of the Opera. In Switzerland in July and Finland in August 2023. The chemistry and deep friendship has been rekindled.
Marko seems happier and healthier after his health problems the last some years. The magic is still there.
As for Tarja she has continued to study, to practice and grow. She can still belt and create.a soundscape entirely with her voice. While expanding into mixing in diffrent genres of music and expanding her range. She makes music for the love of it, for the love of sharing it with her loyal, loving Winter Storm. That love extends to Marko for sure. He is Tarja's friend so he is our friend.
Marco (Odyssy) tied his hand to the wheel in order to resist the tempting call of the Sirens while Tarja (Siren) sings "come to me". Tuomas has studied Greek mythology and tales of Odyssy well. Most of the seamen met their destiny. They also perform this tale so well.
lyrics
A lady with a violin
Playing to the seals
Hearken to the sound of calling
Who tied my hands to the wheel?
The zodiac turns over me
(Come to me)
Somewhere there my fate revealed
I hear but how will I see?
I tied myself to the wheel
The winds talk to my sails not me
(Come to me)
Somewhere there my fate revealed
I hear but how will I see?
This is my favourite Tarja song, she does an incredible job. Love the story behind this and Marco joining in.
Great analysis, Eric, as always. Tuomas does not indulge in a lot of solos, but this one fits perfectly, and he delivers it with the passion and love it deserves. Tarja does that lovely crooning sound in the middle and all of the rest you’ve mentioned. Shout out to Yukka, who lays out that foundation and never lets go
The thing about Nightwish is that you can hear 30 songs made by them, and then you listen to another one, and it´s still incredible!! That´s just insane!
Beautiful. From Nightwish, Beauty of the beast would be a great listen. To me, it is all about the relationship between Tuomas and Tarja and how Marcelo took Tuomas's dreams away.
He’s already done the studio version of this one.
🐕hey Eric and shout out NWA
Eric, thank you, thank you, thank you! I really love this song. ❤Just Nightwish doing Nightwish things!
Tarja, the Dark Angel of Sorrow
❤
This is Tarja's song. Marko rocks this song alsoand his colors when he sings. I saw video of Nightwish that a reactors friend said she didn't like Emppu
Es hipnótico y espeluznante la voz de Tarja 😍magistral combinación, además la potencia y presencia escénica es teatral sus conciertos es como una obra de arte musical mucha genialidad en la voz de Tarja que te seduce como el canto de una sirena muy literal creo que está canción la define totalmente Tarja es una hechicera vocal que nos transporta en un mundo de fantasías terroríficas sensación rara espeluznante , gótico , inquietante y satisfactorio a su vez me encanta ❤
I concur
You summed up Tarja very well. She is truly captivating. It is very hard to take your eyes off her when she performs.
This is Nightwish bestiest song ever. So its my opinion… 😊 song Made 2004
Fantasmic part III Tampere Pakkahuone?🥹
I concur #babywish
I concur!
I’m a fan of Wanderlust. These fast moving songs just have to much energy and they’re just fun
Oh that last part is the name of the club in the city of Tampare ( tampa ray), Finland where the concert was held. Funny hardly anyone points that fact out. Geez, I should wonder why? 😆🤔 (you would think they find Finnish spelling as hard as pronunciation.)
In the keyboard solo there's a 8 bars long excerpt from Amorphis' song 'Better Unborn', which is a nice "easter egg"/collegial homage to another pioneering Finnish metal group...
I just realised the same thing and had to look at the comments to see if anyone else noticed =) "Wait, thats a familiar melody..."
Tarja has an album with Torsten called outlanders and it is a mix of techno/house music with electric guitars where he participates, for example: Joe Satriani, Al Di Meola, Walter Giardino, Mike Oldfield, etc. these are the songs:
1. Outlanders (feat. Walter Giardino)
2. Closer To The Sky (feat. Trevor Rabin)
3. The Cruellest Goodbye (feat. Al Di Meola)
4. World In My Eyes (feat. Vernon Reid)
5. Mystique Voyage (feat. Steve Rothery)
6. The Sleeping Indian (feat. Joe Satriani)
7. Land of Sea and Sun (feat. Marty Friedman)
8. 1971 (feat. Walter Giardino)
9. We Own This Sky (feat. Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal)
10. Never Too Far (feat. Mike Oldfield)
11. Echoes (feat. Jennifer Batten)
12. A Peaceful Place (Return To The Oasis) (feat. Walter Giardino)
PpI loved this song with 5a4ja and Floor. Gotta say that I love Tarja version better
I would like to sugest reacting to Nightwish - Wanderlust (End of an era). Emppu realy shines there...
Nightwish - WHILE YOUR LIPS ARE ATILL - Live at Wembley 2015
Q: Who's the best singer Nightwish has had, Tarja or Floor?
A: Marco.
I was introduced to NW while deployed in Afghanistan on a NATO base by Danes and Norwegians. Top 10 band for me….brother this was the single greatest analysis of seen of them. Well done 👍
Sir, the way you feel the music my recommendation is to check Von Hertzen Brothers. Another talented Finnish band.
On another matter when the band called The Warning were touring with Izzy Hale. Izzy saw the lead guitarist plsy and said th the other guysm. We should go practice more. Yhe tour was last Sumner
I am, I admit, a rabid Floor fan; however, this is and will always be Tarja's song. Love this song.
ICC, Nightwish brings the High Talent in so Many Ways, It Just Hurts and Sooths, The Audience just Locks on to It.
I'm anxious to hear the new record... wo Marko's input...
Next, Nightwish - Meadows of heaven, a masterpiece sang by Anette. I think you will like it. Also, I'm very curious of how an interview with you and Tuomas would go. I'm just fantasizing 😊
I concur
This song reminds me other song of finnish band HIM called Join me in death.
This is my favorite Nightwish song. 🥰💯
Although my very first song ever heard from Nightwish was Poet & the Pendulum, that is my favorite line-up in the group, but I’m slowly beginning to enjoy some of the songs with Tarja.
Was it the studiorecording of TPATP or live version?
@@fredriknilsson6042 the live version
@@deborahfoster5520 the original line up for that song is with Anette singing. So you could say that you mean that is your favorite lineup if you read your comment. But i think you mean the one when Floor is the singer
It’s great to explore all the different eras. There’s so much goodness in all of them
They definitely know how to write and perform songs.
As you said previously.... it is not fair. LOL
I love your face when everytime Marko begins to sing 😂 exactly my feelings. He is sooo good. And NW is number one ❤️
I miss this Nightwish
It was a pleasure to start Saturday at a slower pace and to see that you had made another great video about Nighwish.
As for the cheating, Nighwish's original musicians were based in a small village inhabited by about ten thousand people on the eastern border of Finland. The talent of the players is obvious, but at the same time it is a story about Finnish school music education, which has valued heavy metal on the same as level of classical music.
And what comes out of Tarja's voice and above all how well the band plays... your analysis was a good introduction to why 90% of Nighwish's songs played on the radio in Finland were made during Tarja's time.
Yes, and the remaining 10% is sung by Anette.
Your 90%-10% is just nonsense. Example Radio Rock rotation is:
Sleeping Sun (Tarja)
Wishmaster (Tarja)
Ever Dream (Tarja)
End Of All Hope (Tarja)
Nemo (Tarja)
Wish I Had An Angel (Tarja)
Amaranth (Anette)
Bye Bye Beautiful (Anette)
Eva (Anette)
Storytime (Anette)
Elan (Floor)
Noise (Floor)
How's the Heart (Floor)
Not sure about Last Ride Of The Day (Anette) and My Walden (Floor).
@@ValtteLcoming in with the detail, love it!
@@vanessalore9942 😂 and hi.
Amazing song
Holy mackerel, pretty much no one reacts to old-school Nightwish, especially deeper cuts like this! For once my recommendations came in clutch. I kind of feel like a kid at a playground, finding someone else taking interest in their Very Favourite Things hahaha. This is such a banger in terms of arrangement and vocal harmonies, and I think it flies under the radar because it's absolutely not a "radio song" in any way.
If you want to get further into Old Nightwish, I think you might enjoy Walking In the Air from Live in Pakkahuone. That one has the band as absolute *babies* just starting their journey into being big time pro musicians in the metal world, and it's not metal as such -- but it's such a gorgeous song that it's still played on the radio during Christmastime here. The mixing is on point for a live take, even though you can hear that the band is at the end of the set. (And IMO it's worth hearing on headphones just for the chill factor, but I'm massively biased behind my nostalgia goggles...) Thanks for giving older NW a chance -- not many RUclipsrs do!
Hey!
Have you ever heard finnish bands called peer qünt or tarot? If not I think you should listen and react even peer qünt - backseat or I don't wanna be a rock'n roll star
This is by far Tarja's song. Even though Marko and Tarja get a little pitchy, this live performance is awesome. That being said, I prefer the studio version. Thanks Eric 🤘🤘
Both Steve Harris and whoever did that to Nightwish back should jus quit editing. They’re just crap at that
Tarja4Evr ❤👊❤
All hale the REAL TRUE QUEEN 👑 of NIGHTWISH and of ALL FEMALE SYMPHONIC METAL SINGERS!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!😀👍👍🤘
