Love his deep voice. Would be interesting to hear him singing.

[mandypandyify]

I must say, his voice is WAY deeper than expected. O.o Also, he has an interesting accent. Oh, Finnish...

[anniev]

He's so handsome! And I love his voice/accent

[OneInchCobra]

Cool dude from Northern land with perfect sense of Heavy Metal, I'd clone him 1000x times, definitely need more ppl like him

[decembersixx]

Nicest guy EVER! I hung out with him and he is so sweet and sincere!

[izolderator]

I really like questions. On many interview Apocalyptica is asked about the same things. Not in this interview. Very smart questions.

[corinna]

"Two albums and one house. On the off-year, when I was supposed to do nothing. So that tells something about me."
I love hearing him give interviews. Always such detailed answers. That and his extremely sexy voice. I could listen to him talk all day. (And Shadowmaker is an AMAZING album.)

[tansulpan]

He has very beautyfull voice.i think that if he will sing it will be amazing great!!!

[auroraguadalupemendezcruz]

sigo insistiendo lo amo es muy lindo pero una duda cuabtos años tiene

[victoriacobb]

English is my native language, but over the past year I've been learning to speak Finnish, and I have to say, English is just WAY too complicated. Is there somewhere I can go to switch my native language to Finnish?

[kevinngoya]

how or why I used to think Eicca Toppinen is a girl is still beyond me

[chrisboyd]

I saw Apocalyptica last time they came to My city and was a little upset that they played more American band covers rather than there own material OUTSTANDING performance sad set choice

[nathaliemartz]

Eicca: Que?
Yo: El papel que te envuelve bombon!!!!
