The video of the track "While Your Lips Are Still Red", written by Tuomas as the main theme track for the upcoming Finnish feature film "LIEKSA!", is now available in YouTube from the link below. The track features Marco on vocals, Tuomas on keys and Jukka on drums. Though "While Your Lips Are Still Red" is not exactly a Nightwish-track, it will be included as a bonus track on Nightwish's forthcoming "Amaranth" CD-Single.
The movie "LIEKSA!", directed and written by renown Finnish movie director Markku Pölönen, premiers in Finland during September 2007.


Damn this shows a side of Marco's voice I don't think alot of people have ever heard, that is why he is alwyas in my top 10 vocalist

 

[Thorn23TX]

Wow, John... that is a cool song. Quite a nice surprise to hear Marco sing that way!

 

[Curufin]

Marco's voice is so goddamned amazing. 16 days 'til I get to see Tarot again, and this video got me even more excited!

I shall be there as well! Yup John we will take a picture, or even pictures, for you - I think I'll let AMBR do that with her better cam though

Cool video and song, I had heard of this project before so it's nice to see the outcome.

 

[Unca Kev]

Nice song. The fact that Marco can change it up stylistically just adds to my opinion that Marco is one of my favorite singers! Damn! I wish that Tarot would play here in the US. Well at least he seems to be singing more on the upcoming NW album.

Heh, the ProgPower Ultimate Metal Forum contigent will be taking over Tuska and the Tarot gig. Look out! Now we just need freakchylde to weigh in.

 

[Braxil]

Marco rules, I'm desperate for Tarot at Progpower.

 

[Imagikafan]

Marco sounds great, but the song is rather boring.

 

[Jibrille]

He sings similarly on Tides which is my favourite song on the Crows Fly Black album.

 

[Petethedrummer]

very cool

Is this a new Nightwish tune? If so they are now 0 for 2 .. for me at least. Are these guys metal any longer ... doesn't sound like it. The video was awful as well.

Britt

Ah .. is see in the first post in the thread this isn't really a Nightwish tune .. good thing .. it was a boring track. The singing was pretty good actually.

 

[Stingray11214]

Really shows off that Marco Hietala is grossly underrated and underappreciated.

If you're doubting their "metal-ness", listen to the samples off of the new album.

Yeah, those samples are more in line with what I want to hear. I didn't like that Eva track, and I didn't like this tune discussed in this thread. Both tunes aren't even close to metal.

Cause a song can't be good if it's not 'metal'. =/

I thought it was a good song. While I love Marco, and I'm impressed by the capability of his voice, I actually don't think his voice sounds that great like this. Would we really be paying attention to this if this song was just a random band with a male singer? I'm impressed by his versatility, but I don't think him singing this way is his strength.

Also, did the song seem similar in parts to Eva (not the style, but the actual melody/chord pattern). Some parts really felt like they were straight from Eva

I thought that his voice was fine liek this. But, as you pointed out, his strength is with his metal/rock voice, not to mention how well he can work the audience as a co-frontman.

Well, Touomas did write it, so i guess there might be some melody similarities in the two songs.
