There's another video of the Marko/Tarja duet from a different angle that's much closer to the stage, and Marko has the most fascinating look on his face during Tarja's portion. Like, he looks genuinely entranced and emotional, as if he's shocked to be there hearing her sing again. Lowkey, now that Marko's left Nightwish, I hope he and Tarja do something official together. They do the Beauty & the Beast dynamic like no other. Still waiting for you guys to do 'Swanheart,' Sistah gonna cryyyyyyyyy.

Saw Marko singing in Raskasta Joulua show a Month ago, he seemed very happy to be on stage again.

It was so wonderful to see Tarja and Marco mending their relationship. Watching them singing together on Raskasta Joulua tour stage, it was so obvious how they were pulled together like magnetism. And then after the concert this happened! In an interview she told how Marco came to see her before the concert, and how everything bad past just disappeared the moment they saw eachothers. Her and Tuomas though, I don't think they are in a happy place yet. Those people closest to you, their betrayal causes the deepest wounds. Seen "Fellowship of the Ring? It's like that enchanted poisoneous dagger striking Frodo that Tuomas struck in her heart, when he tried to destroy Tarja's future life and demonized her image. That wound is {{{ DEEP }}}. Like shards of the enchanted dagger is still there. And that dagger was enchanted by crushing his heart and dropping the blood on the blade. It would be the best thing, for them both, if they could mend it, if it is possible. I'm sure it eats them.

Jarkko is singing in his mother language; Finnish: Ave maria äiti maan lapsien taas meihin katsoo suojellen kun poika syntymäpäivä on mä pieni ihminen turvaton pyydän siunauksen Anna harras mieli joulu puhtain tuo ja hengelläs meitä suojaa näin muistaen kaiken luojaa johda meistä jokainen poikas luo Ave maria äiti maan lapsien taas meihin katsoo suojellen kun poika syntymäpäivä on mä pieni ihminen turvaton pyydän siunauksen Anna harras mieli joulu puhtain tuo ja hengelläs meitä suojaa näin muistaen kaiken luojaa johda meistä jokainen poikas luo Ave maria

Marko couldn't stay away for quite the whole year. Not back in Nightwish or Tarot but has been visiting some others.

You should check Jarkko Ahola singing "Sylvian joululaulu" the live version. How to make the director of the orchestra smile !

There is also beautiful live version of Ave Maria by Jarkko Ahola with Johanna Kurkela. ❤

Ave Maria can be sung like Floor did at Heavy Christmas shows, i wish she would have gone for a more soft version from her home studio, a little like Jarkko did. Marco and Tarjas first singing together after 2005...that was history made, and so beautiful.

Thank you❤️🇫🇮, happy new year 2022!!

Tarja record an entire album of Ave Maria’s Lides

Just any real Nightwish commentors to remember her last last letter "ANN WAYCHOFF'S FINAL MESSAGE TO REACTORS: " ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I have been a fan of Nightwish, Floor - all of them, for an amount of time that seems like an eternity. But I notice a lot of people are doing them all wrong, to me. They embrace Floor as she should be, she is what is best for Nightwish because she is so versatile. What frustrates me, is the amount of people throwing in requests for Floor. So many people in the "Nightwish Army", or whatever, ignore Anette and Tarja, and all the work they put into the studio albums. Not everyone, but enough... too many to be comfortable with. If I was to say anything to people, to the people doing reactions, it is to be original. You don't have to listen to everyone and be the performing... whatever... in the circus. You don't have to be. There is over 100 songs in Nightwish's library, and so much studio work that goes unnoticed that it's almost infuriating. Now don't get me wrong, I love Floor, but Nightwish is to be experienced for everything that it is. Tarja, Anette, Floor, Live, Studio... it's all their history, Tuomas's work, Marko's work - everyone in that band. Do more of the studio work while you do the live Floor stuff. Appreciate Nightwish for everything that it is, and don't be afraid of backlash from the other fans. If you truly love Nightwish, then that is all that counts." *ANN WAYCHOFF - 6/20/20* "Ann Carone Diamond Waychoff, 66, of Titusville, passed away Sunday, June 28, 2020 at UPMC Hamot." Nightwish 🤘🇫🇮 Army 🎆Have a Happy and Healthy Year 2022 🤘Finland 🐻‍❄ 🐻♪ 𝓜𝓾𝓼𝓽𝓪 𝓛𝓪𝓪𝓽𝓽𝓪 👍👌

There is a very touching version of Floor with Marco. It’s so very beautiful.

Yum Yum, Marko has done new stuff lately.

Happy new year to both of you. Though I'm not supporting you on Patreon I'm glad I can watch you here on KZfaq. Greets from germany ❤

Happy new year! Yes, you said Andrea Bocelli right. He's a great singer! I agree that Floor's mic needed to be turned up or the music turned a bit down. Thank you for that treat of Marko and Tarja together. First time I see/hear that.

Happy new year to you too. Nice to see both of you so happy. Greetings from Finland 🙋‍♀️ ❤🤘

They do so beautiful concert version and performances of this song and also this RJ tour. Somehow I get moved when I see the end scene when light fades out over Marco and Tarja hugging each other. I heard from somewhere that when they first met after a long period of time for this concert tour Marco went to her hotel and she opened door....a moment of silence and then they hugged for a long time with tears in eyes. I hope they can be friends again.

you weren't wrong with the Jarkko

❤🤗 i love your videos. Happy New Year!!

I'm always deeply affected by Floor's multi-talented Voice. She encapsulates so much emotion in a song with her Interpretive abilities. And her Powerful Technique--head & chest voice, brightness of tone and Vibrato is "music" to my ears.

Happy new year :)

The beard is getting quite devilish. But he still has ways to go to reach levels Marco flies. Happy New Year 🎇

🥂✨Happy New Year ecowarriorprincess! Your are a loyal Jarkko fan, this is one of your best pick of his, 👍 good suggestion. HalfLifeSistah & Wolfkain ❤️❤️, Happy New Year! Always love watching your videos.

Tarja is a wizard of music

Great stuff guy and lady! Always love your reactions and commentary. My personal favorite version of this song is with Marko singing lead in Finnish, then Floor coming in in Latin and English, then with the last line together, which leaves one longing for more. Happy new year you two!

Love your reactions. I haven't watched for a while and I have to say, I like the Marko beard, Wolf. I do think you are one lucky guy to have such a beautiful wife. Hoping 2022 rawks for both of you.

Y'all are so adorable!!!

happy new years guys.

I would not mind hearing Floor and Jarkko duet of this beautiful song 🤘❤🤘 Goddess and God of Metal.

Happy New Year ! Thank you 🇫🇮❤️. Marko Hietala, “For you” (official live video) is different but only Marko can sing it.

Happy New Year And Rock On Beautyful People 🔥🦌🎸🤘🏼 Love and support from Italy 🇮🇹

Happy New Year to you guys!

Second comment just for HalfLifeSistah: People said you look like a man?? Either they are jealous or they are blind, cause I don't see it. You're beautiful. Shine on, Sistah! ;-)

There is also a version with Marko en Floor.

Tarja is amazing.

In the beginning Tarja and Marco are joking about how they haven't sang together for a very long time even thought they sang yesterday. But before that they hadn't sang for a very long time with each other. Then they say that how wonderful feeling has been there on the show then and that they want to give them just something warm to close things for the night. Then Marco asks the audience to put their phone's flashlights on. At the end they are thanking the audience and wishing to everyone to have a good Christmas.

Can we all just take a minute to notice how beautiful halflife is. You can’t walk by the Mona Lisa without noticing right?

i'm with you sistah. i somehow feel some songs have a certain sound that should be left alone as it's perfect as is. and let it be known i'm a consummate rocker since i was a child . i'm around since 1968.

Uffff como llore con marko y Tarja.. los amoooooo❤ cynthia de Argentina

Happy New Year! I Wish you Health, peace, happiness, all the best!

u heeft gelijk de muziek was te hard voor dat mooie liedje spijtig dat het zo is gegaan ook

Hello I’m from Poland so I have 2 sugesttions for U First is Vader -i am who feasts upon your soul Vader is a Polish death metal band from Olsztyn. Formed in 1983, the group was founded by then-bassist Piotr "Peter" Wiwczarek and guitarist Zbigniew "Vika" Wróblewski. Vader went through several lineup changes over the years, with Wiwczarek as the only constant member. Since 2011, the band has comprised Wiwczarek on guitars and vocals, guitarist Marek "Spider" Pająk, bassist Tomasz "Hal" Halicki, and British drummer James Stewart. Starting as a heavy metal group, Vader eventually went to thrash, speed, and then in the late 1980s became a death metal band. It would not be until nine years after forming that they managed to release their debut album The Ultimate Incantation (1992); Vader has released eleven more studio albums since then. The band's name was inspired by Darth Vader from the Star Wars film series. Lyrical themes include stories by H. P. Lovecraft, World War II, and horror. According to Billboard magazine, by 2002 Vader sold approximately 500,000 releases around the world. Second is Acid Drinkers - blues beat down Acid Drinkers are a Polish thrash metal band formed in September 1986 in Poznań. Acid Drinkers were formed on 21 September 1986 consisting of Tomasz "Titus" Pukacki (vocals, bass) and Robert "Litza" Friedrich (guitar, vocals). The band's style is thrash metal, with influences of heavy metal and hardcore punk. Acid Drinkers are rated as one of the most important bands in the Polish thrash and heavy metal world. All the best !!! Listen and Enjoy 🤘🏼

If anyone wants to see a gorgeus Ave Maria by Tarja, put this in your search: Ave Maria de Francesco Paolo Tosti - Yhdessä Jouluna - Tampere - 2019 It's audeince recorded and in church, so it has that church echo, but it does come pretty good and is totally worth it.

Hannes' beats were beautiful too

Thank you very much and a happy new year! Only one suggestion: "Tarja Turunen - Ohne Dich", Wacken Church 2016. Amazing Rammstein cover!

Please react to Tarja Turunen Ohne Dich

Everytime Tarja sings Ava Maria I cry I can’t help myself

Happy new years! Did you see the Floor and Marko version of Ave Maria? So pretty..

Marko and Floor have done also a live version of Ave Maria. Try it

inez galante ave maria at Riga cathedral ( with the organ ) the most beautiful for me

One thing Darlings - competition/challenge.Which one of you learns Finnish words first? LOL Or even rolling RRR? She sung in English and Latin 😁 And no ,ya don't have Marko bear yet - few more yrs?

There are also versions of Marko and floor together. Yes the mix in floor's video is not doing it any favours. Flour's version is usually Italian parts sang in a classical operatic style with English parts sang in a slightly poppy ish style.

Jarkko sings in Finnish. And also Marko and Tarja.

Markco and Tarja have always known, that they've had a very magical bond and perfect chemistry with their voices.

It is a little music heavy in the mix. Floor has done it in so many ways.

Searching for Lovebites on Your channel. Have You missed them? You got to react to their song Swan song with Chopin intro. Expecting some tears from the lady on that song! *-)

it's not Italian but Finnish ... if you want to hear Tarja singing the Ave Maria in Italian, I recommend you to watch the video "Tarja Turune, Paolo Tosti Ave Maria" form the album "Ave Maria En Plain Air"

Great idea to listen different versions of this demanding song. F.ex. Jarkko can sing effortlessly almost anything from heavy to opera, but he has admitted that Ave Maria is difficult song to interpret, because you shouldn't overdo it.

Great reaction of the both of you 👍👌❤👍👌❤ Please also react to the Marco and Floor version from 2019. Kind regards from the Netherlands and stay healthy ❤❤

Eff the haters, Sis! You are a beauty, and bubba! Have a wonderfull 2022 y'all! 🤗 …And yes, the mix of Floor's video was wubbish. The instrumental track was way too loud. …and yes, damnit, no one can ever replace Marco. Such a multi-facetted talent of a musician!

Take a look ave maria version of marco hietala with floor hansen raskast 2019

I really love Floor and Marko singing this live together. I agree about the mix with this version Floor did. Her voice would have been pristine but the instruments were simply overpowering. Happy new year!

Oh, you really have to do the Floor and Marco version. ❤️

For Ave Maria I definetely prefer Tarja Turunen's solos. (Lady, you have an excellent taste :)

The R how You have To say it In Finnish,like In name Maria

Hi Sistah, don't listen to low-level cultural messages. You are beautiful, you have a wonderful and inviting smile, and you seem to be an empathetic, respectful and very sensitive person. Things that are missing in society today...

All hale the REAL TRUE Queen of Nightwish!!!!!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!!!!!!😀👍👍👍👍👍

She has a recorded softer version

GUYS go see/listen to Sharon van Adel WITHIN TEMPTATION album The Silent Force, song Stand My Ground e.g. we have got some singing angels in The Netherlands :-) Floor Jansen, Sharon van Adel , duet with Anneke van Giersbergen and Sharon van Adel song Somewhere :- )

That was Finnish

For a more traditional approach, do the Floor and Marco from Rakasta Joulua. There are two, one where Floor is in a white dress and one where she is in a black dress. Both are fantastic, but I prefer Marco’s part a bit better in the earlier one where Floor is in black. Floor is amazing in both. Enjoy 🤘🤘

Hello from Finland! You two have had a really interesting reactions so far. There is always some info form background and reactions itself are very pure/honest. I really enjoy that! I would like to recommend one really amazing performer to your queue. Her performances are stunning every time! Please, Lara Fabian. Start a tour with her live performance: Je Suis Malade. -> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mrymn9Ch1JvLaZ8.html I bet you won't be disappointed with her! Enjoy!!🥰

Its feels so good that Tuomas Holopainen and Tarja Turunen and Emppu Vuorinen and Sami Vanska and Jukka Nevalainen and Marko Hietala are happy together as the Nightwish band!! I also like that Floor Jansen is a backup singer and Kai Hahto is a backup drummer and Troy is a backup guitarist and can help with flutes too!!

Pls react to tarja ave maria (tostoi version)

Please react to "Savatage - Chance"

HARDLY SEE ON KZfaq. MARCO IS SINGING SOLO WITH NIGHTWISH. My suggestion is a cover of them, which we hardly see on KZfaq. And if you like a heavy Nightwish sound, this will be a very nice one. Marco is singing solo on this one. Check out their cover of Megadeth, symphony of destruction. The second also hardly on KZfaq, is a heavy Siren, The Siren performed live of course by Floor Jansen Enjoy it, and I with you! 🤘🏻❤️🇳🇱

How about the Marco and Floor version. The best and most beautiful of all

Hannes (van Dahl) who does Floor's home recordings is a good drummer but a horrible mixer. 😉

Floor lacks a lot of what TARJA brings to the table, as nice as Floor sings

For me, the version of Floor Jansen is the best, I liked how she sang this song in a varied, graceful and gentle manner.

it's a pity that floor is almost drowned out completely by the instrumentation, mixers get on it.

I think the Marko /Floor version is better

Floor is marvelous, but Tarja makes Nightwish...

My choise is Floor's version. Floor is better than other two singers because Floor Jasen is the best. DIXI
