no,dude.Nightwish is an amazing band with Tarja,but WITH ANETTE TOO ! I dont understand people...I hope,that Anette will show in the Imaginarium,that she is very good singer..
@Lee3CZ She is a good singer, has been for a long time now, it's just that the pipes on Tarja are powerful as hell and Annette cannot match them. They found a fairly creative and interesting way around that though on Imaginaerum.
@BlindDarkWolf You seem to have not listened to Imaginaerum (or "The Poet and the Pendulum" and "The Islander" from Dark Passion Play). You need to remedy that, like, right now.
@WishmasterTheDark They died in 2002, with Tsrja. century child brought in the new Nightwish. In century child, Tuomas made orchestra based song instead of using synthesizers, Marco was added to the band, Tarja retrained her voice to more of a girlie high pitched voice (look at wish I had an angel compared to this song) so they died 9 years ago.
Those were great times! I really love this song, and it gives me a very special feeling, especially the solo at the beginning! Unfortunately you can't hear the lyrics very well, but Tarja sings it in a very beautiful way! I really love it!
@oOEternal0o it's about Anette Olzen vs Tarja Turunen. And I definitely prefer Tarja, she seems more fluid and less "harsh". Live version with Anette of this song just doesn't sound right. She is a good singer, but she can't sing these songs and do them justice. To each their own off-course.
Crownless, Sacraments of the Wilderness, and Moondance all seem similar...REALLY similar...I swear the keyboard riffs were recycled. Still good though!
Nightwish with Tarja - AWESOME (End of all Hope, Ocean Soul)
Nightwish with Anette - AWESOME (Poet and the Pendulum, Islander)
Why? KEYS!!!
Tarja's alone is much worse (no keys >_>...), even though i bought her album without thinking (litterally). Anette alone... well, she doesn't sing alone ^^' Either way, Nightwish is my favourite band.
Beautiful song, the perfect introduction to symphonic themed metal for anybody. One of the things I like the most about this album is the depth of the symphony of synthesizers and the lyrics. The very last verse brings a tear to my eye most times I listen to the song. Tuomas is the musician who composed the track and wrote the lyrics? Tuomas I will credit the majesty of this song with in my memory. A pretty face and voice cannot compare to a beautiful soul.
Tarja and Anette are both great, however comparing Tarja to Anette is like comparing Steak to hamburgers... u can eat hamburgers anytime... but a good steak.. mmm so goood :)
@nazisucksass The parchment would be the girl's acceptance letter no? XD
Owls don't have to represent Harry Potter, they are a symbol for wisdom, night, guardians, divination, the north wind...there's many symbols depending on the culture, though I'm not sure which one they meant to portray.
Yeah. I know that - I'm Bulgarian and the symbol animal of Bulgaria is the owl. But owls don't fucking carry around messages, wrapped in red bandages.
Everyone, check out this cover of Nemo. The girl has good vocals, but the guy on the piano is FLAT OUT AMAZING. The best piano cover of ANY Nightwish song, period. And I've seen most of them. Type in Nightwish Nemo Cover [Collaboration]
i visioned myself sitting on a beach ..... with the moon up high ....nd the wind blowing feebly...i dunno how many of you felt that way but it was truly wonderful!! tuomas is the heart of nightwish .... no doubt about that..... but tarja was the soul!! dark, fantasmic nd pacifying!!...thats NIGHTWISH for me..
Hmm as good as it is, it's not terribly clear what Tarja is singing. But maybe that's more due to her operatic style. Annette on the other hand has better clarity but is much weaker in terms of voice, less 'full-bodied' if you know what I mean. Both are great though, in their own way
I find that Annette is better with the Dark Passion Play+ songs and Tarja is better at the older, >End of an Era songs. Annette isn't as powerful at songs designed for Tarja's voice.
I do, though I have slight preference for Tarja as she's more unique, but Annette is also a talented songstress! Just less to my personal tastes, i like operatic songs. :]
@thewolfpoet I know right? this rivalry is so.. . Is stupid too polite a term? Both of them have things that are great about their voices, and both have reasons to be liked.
@thewolfpoet i was begining to think i was the only one as well ... reading all these comments of how one is better than the other ... its stupid really
Hahah, this caught my eye in the info box: "Tuomas Holopainen Naked in midwinter...." and I was like what? Anyways, fantastic song, one of their best!
I LOVE THAT <3<3<3
