I disagree. He is living his life on his terms. Funny how all of the ex members of NW thrive after leaving.

@@DarkWingsAscending Totally. I've also loved seeing Marco appear on varying other artist's projects in his time after Nightwish. Especially his features with Therion and Waltari. I also like what Anette has been doing after Nightwish. Especially in The Dark Element.

@@DarkWingsAscending You call that thriving? Keep fooling yourself. You are right though, he is living his life on his terms and that is the way it is supposed to be. I am just giving my opinion.

@@Smashy2009 Marco and Tarja have been happier. Your commenting on their happiness. Marco and Tarja were the blood of Nightwish and propped Tuomas up. They got rid of her because she decided to have a family and put that family first. I like Nightwish, but I'm not delusional into thinking Tuomas is God (or the God he now preaches doesn't exist in every new album as propaganda). Every original member is gone except Tuomas, and that doesn't happen unless someone's creative genius includes harsh realities for the other band members. Most cited depression and being worn down. It wasn't the tour schedule. Floor has changed the band. The first album was beautiful, but it was likely written ahead of her entrance. It's changed to random chaotic vibes and away from orchestral metal. Marco and Tarja are still hitting the same pitches and tones as 20 years ago, and sound HAPPY! Look at Sebastian Bach: Happy Musicians make better music.

@@Rekikyo Oh really, lets see: Tuomas, ok check Emppu check Troy Check Jukka left for health reasons, took him 5 years to decide to retire Tarja was not fired because she wanted a family, she got fired because she was toxic, tried to blackmail the band, said she was going to leave at the end of the tour to go solo. Oh, how is that going? Marco left supposedly for health reasons, difficult to say, because he came up with various different stories in different interviews. The mental health problems seem to make most sense, just look at his facial expressions in this performance. Still he was the only difficult to replace in the band. Tarja and marco carrying tuomas? Really? Floor changed the band in the sense that tuomas writes his material according to the singers potential. So nice try, but you sir are talking out of your butt. My original statement was aimed at starting to look bad, like axel rose, john bonjovi, mick jagger and countless others that once where heroes, but are now only a shadow of themselves. But die hard fanboys will never see the truth, they make their own. No need to reply, cased closed. Tata
