Jarkko, Metal God, Ahola truly is one of - if not the most talented singer out there. Some pros say his voice is closest to operatic tenor, which may be why his legendary metal screams are so divine.

It's so funny how Wolf always looks so proud of finnish artists like he's finnish 😂 Officially handing you the honorary Finn card 😌🇫🇮 Oh and greetings from snowy ass Finland lol

I've heard him sing this in an old wooden church live with this light show. Divine!

It's nice to see people get so emotional from finnish musicians.

Wow!!! And Mega Wow!!! I want this guy to go to Nightwish. I did not know, that he can sing this magnificantly. (sorry. Is that a word?😄) Really amazing.👍👍👍

Spolier: What you don't know yet: Henk Port is currently learning how to play the bass and he will be replacing Marco in the future. ;-)

Sistah - Jarkko has so far released seven beautiful original albums - Teräsbetoni (metal), AHOLA (hard rock/ metal) and solo. In addition, albums with other metal bands he has been lead singer and composed for, plus international metal projects...On top of all this he enjoys singing tributes, opera with symphony orchestras, christmas tunes...u name it.

Even when he doesn't join Nightwish I think Tuomas should create a song for him and Floor.

your faces when he started singing... i think that's about the same face i had when i heard this song for the first time... it's INSANELY good

This is Jarkko Ahola he is music master of the universium he one of the talented singer in any genre even though he is heavy metal is his heart. :D

Greetings from Finland and thanks for your reaction 👌😛🤔🤗😁

I had a chance to attend his Christmas concert in our local church. It was beautiful! He would be good for Nightwish.

Wooow thank you for your reaction and introducing me to this talented singer. 🤟🙂

So, about 17 years ago I attended a gig in a bomb shelter in Tampere. The audience was sparsely scattered and I was just about the only person in the first row, and definitely the only one head banging, while Jarkko Ahola's band, Teräsbetoni, was playing. Their debut album came out the next year. 🤘

It's great that we have so many good performers in Finland, both bands and solo artists.💞

Y'all are adorable. Thanks for introducing us to another amazing artist.

Jarkko is amazing!

I just subscribed. I've seen your cradle of filth reactions and remembered you from that. and now Jarkko (I'm from Finland myself so..). And you two are my absolute favourite people doing metal reactions on yt. Kiitos!

Absolutely love his voice 😍 always melts my soul .

im also waiting that nighwish version big bang that one moment :) jarkko ahola damn.great great great. thanx to great reaction and have wonderful weekend.

I love when he does holy diver

Jarkko Ahola - Nessun Dorma if you whant go hear the range of his voice.

He is one of the greatest singers in the world right now. Just self trained, no vocal lessons ever. His range is amazing. Listen also to Tears In Heaven from this same concert, you will truly be in heaven. For heavier Jarkko check out Teräsbeton.

SISTAH! I love your reactions! I love how you feel every note and every layer of the instruments.

Jarkko Ahola "Adagio" listen that also. It's so beutiful 🥰

Great reaction as always!

It is Christmas allday everyday with Jarkko so u may aswell just keep this background going lol

chameleon voice , so rich voice colors palette that im always amazed when i hear Him

Hey, Jarkko Ahola Imagine John Lennon cover, awesome 😎

Beautiful. He sounds like an angel. He reminds me James LaBrie, the lead singer of Dream Theater. I don't think he will be replacing Marko. Abandoning a soloist career to be a member of a band? Mmm. I don't know, I don't think is possible... But (big bu**) who knows... xD I think the most beautiful song of Nightwish is "Meadows of Heaven", it is from the album "Dark Passion Play". It is an undescribeable song, it has no equal. You will notice it when you listen to it. I would like to watch a reaction video of "Meadows of Heaven" :D

*goosebumbs*

Thank you for reacting to the metal God Jarkko! Christmas is coming and so is Jarkko starting on 12/03/21.

If there's angels, they sounds like Jarkko Ahola

I love Jarkko. My mom and I watched his Christmas live stream and it was amazing. Would love it if you would react to his version of Holy Diver! It's magnificent 😍

Jarkko is amazing. As always. Well, we usually are :-)

Great reaction! so honest and pure feelings

Marco is still involved with his 1st band Tarot with his brother..

Wow this is awesome

Nice to hear you give an effort to try to pronounce the name correctly :) Jarrrrrkko and Marrrko

You guys are one of the most cute couples I've ever watched on KZfaq! So much chemistry! I subbed.

i just got internet back and was able to catch this vid. i live in san antonio, texas and i lost everything to water damage due to an apartment fire an upstairs neighbor had when they attempted to use their fireplace to heat their apartment on the first night it was cold here. 16 units were destroyed. luckily everybody got out and nobody was hurt. i don't blame the dude because he had an infant, the electricity turned off at 9 pm in our area, and by 2 am it was 35 degrees in our apartments and 15 degrees outside. the chimney caught fire due to poor maintenance on the apartment complex's part. so your info on climate change hits home, literally. as we continue to push forward with our machines to improve the human experience within the universe i believe eventually we will balance out the use of resources, the replenishment of resources, and the pollution that we make to be able to stabilize our future. until then, i hope minimal amount of people have to deal with such drastic swings in weather which can cause other problems due to desire to survive. missed watching your guys's vids. glad to see them again.

I love your videos and hearing your reactions and insightful comments. This guy has a great voice for sure! Do you think you'll be able to catch Nightwish's virtual online concert in May?

You should take a listen To him with Northern Kings try the Tina turner classic cover of we don't need another Hero with a surprise.

Do some of Jarkko Aholas Real songs, in finnish. TeräsBetoni, amazing powermetal in finnish.

That was very nice ! HLS almost to tears (O: But the 'Dub Step' during the credits? hmmmm

Mr. J. Ahola is some who deserves this !! I'm from finland and Jarkko became famous with they high school project band, whose name was terasbetoni (those a is ä in finnish :) They play same kind metal, what Manowar plays, but Mr. Ahola stood out whole band lead singer. Jarkkos way in the general public celebrity was maby Finnish national tv program, whose name was Tahdet, Tahdet (Stars) and there he's sing one episode opera song Nessum Dorma allmost perfectly. Ahola is best and maby only option to replace Marco Hietala in Nightwish, if we speak Finnish singer and allso all other. 🤔🙂

Wow, this was not awe and goosebumps. This was sustained grace.

I love this, i had my doubts but not anymore, i hope Jarkko joins the Nightwish :)

Jarkko is the Manowar of Finland

would be AMAZING to see Jarkko and Floor sing together

Jarkko is The Best !!!!!!!

Tremendous vocal range and clarity, the ,only, one I've ever heard with slightly more range is, Dimash, what talent!

Jarkko and Tarja dueting this song.... Would be so glorious...

I don't know how Nightwish could ever consider anyone else.

Jarkko is terrific and he should do collaborations more. Would love to see him with Within Temptation.

Ill update you if they make the concert online live with him, i really hope so

ALOHA!!! that was Jarkko AHOLA!!! fantastic singer, would be a great fit for Nightwish in my opinion ♥

JP Leppäluoto is a friend of Jarkkos and was singing with him and Marko in Northern Kings. He has an amazing voice as well, one of the best metal voices in Finland. He was the singer of a fantastic goth metal band called Charon, please react to their big hit Colder 💙🇫🇮 He also was playing The Dragon in Dark Sarah's hit Dance with the Dragon that I would love to see you react to also!!!

Jarkko Ahola and ICS Vortex, the only 2 guys I consider worthy of replacing Marko. But to be honest, I doubt Jarkko would leave aside his career to be a band member where he is not even the main singer, would be a waste a of his talent. That´s why I think ICS Vortex would be a better fill, since his role in Dimmu Borgir was the same as Marko´s in NW, and his talent is undeniable. PS: 2:54 Jarkko got known for playing in a finnish power metal band, Teräsbetoni (2005-2015, currently in a hiatus), before going as solo artist.

Maybe try Teräsbetoni(concretesteel) Taivas lyö tulta... It was a band made up as a joke... but they broke thru :) Jarkko half naked on stage and all... That song sounds simple, but I assure you, no mortal can do that in karaoke :D

The intros DT is epic!

Jarkko have said that on a good day his range is 3 and a half octaves. Normally 3 octaves.

You must try Jarkko's Nessun Dorma. This guy can outsing pretty much anyone!

Jarkko has an amazing voice and actually has an amazing range, I would've loved to see it demonstrated more in this song. I agree with Wolf, it would've been awesome if it was the Nightwish version! My parents who are old rockers (and still more into classic rock) love Jarkko, they've been to many of his concerts.

Hello. Great reactions video. Jarkko Ahola is amazing. Anyway I think you should listen to this video too. This is Johanna Kurkela( Tuomas Holopainen`s wife), Jarkko Ahola, Tony Kakko and J.P. Leppäluoto version 0f Walking in the air (Finnish lyrics). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9SVd6yg3N_MkXU.html. This song titled Avaruus in Finnish.

I would be extremely curious to see HalfLifeSista's reaction to Tuomas' solo work A Lifetime Of Adventure. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gL2nhrmA1Juvj58.html

Jarkko Ahola says he cannot do written notes and has never had a singing lesson, as he prefers his original signature. He plays guitar and bass upside down.

Wow what a great vocal Range he have. Simular to Floor, better not think about a duet of these two. But i hope he stay as a single singer and do his own stuff.

I like you and hello in Finland

merveille

Yoy must try Jarkko's Adagio in Olavinlinna.

An excellent tenor voice and most skilful singer. A replacement for Marco he would not be, I guess. The start of something good and new will needed anyway, Marco probably is impossible to replace. A new era will be needed.

💜🤘🏼🌎 Great Reaction "Nightwishsoul" Love and support from Italy Beautyful People

Nowadays Jarkko Ahola is known for his solo career but he made it to the bigger stages with the band Teräsbetoni (loosely translates to Steelconcrete). Their biggest first hit single was Taivas lyö tulta (Sky strikes fire). Teräsbetoni (IMO) falls in the sub-genre of battle metal or heroic metal. Nevertheless, it is great stuff.

Indeed very good voice, I only hope he doesn't oversing Floor when he sings in nightwish

If I would be Jarkko, I would apply for Nightwish no matter what, even if it would be just for one tour...(if Marco would return). As Tuomas plans a new album followed by a tour for his sideproject "Auri" after the next NW tour, Jarkko would still have plenty of time to develop his solo career anyway. The benefits of being a current member of Nightwish will open him many doors to concert promoters throughout Europe and more as well...yet he would need to stay on the humble side, to win the band's and in particular Floor's appreciation. He should be smart enough, to enjoy the Nightwish spectacle while not being overly responsible for it, though having the option to contribute with own songs, e.g. having Floor as backup or duet partner.

Hello Sistah! You haven't reacted to Tarja in a long time. I would like to suggest a cover that Tarja made of Rammstein's song "Ohne dich". The cover was extremely beautiful. It was recorded at a church in Wacken. Tarja is accompanied only by a piano, a cello and a violin. Thank you very much 💖 Stay safe 🙏

Thank you for this reaaction video 😊. Jarkko has always been one of my favorite singers (he lives on the same area with me), so nice to know that you like his voice. If you want to check out his metallic singing potential, here's one Iron Maiden cover from him. Not the best possible audio, but apart from that this is still worth of listening: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y5mpebN_rbqvdnU.html

Sistah pronounced Jarkko 100%

check out band: teräsbetoni :taivas lyö tulta, same kind of music like manowar make.

Upeeta ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

😘

Iron maiden did "walking in the air" on the somewhere on tour in 1986

This dude is definitely classically trained. No question about it.

'How does he do it?' That is yet to be revealed...Pros who have analysed him say there is no one who has the facility to register transfer like he does...

Opening in familiar falsetto and then deepening is a great choice for this lovely song. Dimash could do that (wow he should!) but the Finnish depth of connection to this song is so great, I would rather see a duet of Jarkko and Tarja.

Hmm i am agreeing with you, Jarkko would be an awesome replacement for Marko multi instrumentalist songwriter, he is finnish and played with Marko before (northern kings) Not to replace Marko but add something different. We will see who is gonna take his place in 4-5 weeks! 🤘

Hey HalfLifeSistah I saw how much you loved Megadeth and I would really love to see you react to She Wolf (Live) (Rude Awakening) by Megadeth. I know you would absolutely love it, no doubt about it in my mind.

I would love you to do Judas Priest Dreamer Deceiver and Deceiver cd version, not the live bbc one, it is truly a astonishing song.

F I N L A N D . . . . . . . . . . .need I say more??? And F L O O R L A N D ofcourse...hereby officialy confirmed, haha!

Successor of Marko ?

7:09 #jargazm ?

Obviously next step is to react to Teräsbetoni songs

Suzy Quatro plays bass next Nightwish tour, maybe.

He is way too good to play second violen... Listen to his Nessum Dorma... Live in OlavinLinna operastage..... He can....

Heart Healer ( Magnus Karlsson ) - Into The Unknown feat NOORA LOUHIMO ( Battle Beast FI ) official music video.COULD YOU REACT TO NOORA NOUHIMO ?

👍🏻🇫🇮

he sadly is to good for only be second voice in Nightwish but maybe for a seasonal thing...

if you believe in God...thats how he would sound like

i think the lowest/deepest male voice is baritone. Till Lindemann and Dave Gahan have it.
