Wow! Lisa you were amazing, but I must say that Xandria didn't lose anything in terms of quality by hiring Kerstin. Xandria is one of the most underrated female-fronted bands, and yet they are one of the few that are not just a Nightwish/Epica clone. Best of luck to all of you.
Why couldn't nightwish have found this woman. No one can replace Tarja but at least she could have done justice to their old songs. Extrordinary voice, beautiful woman... just wow.
Huuuummm I do prefer Lisa she had a very sweet voice... but Kerstin sound pretty good too I'm glad I will still can listen to Xandria I just hope they keep up with the damn good music!!
i was realy pissed wen lisa left the band...nd i thought here we go again..another good band juss broke into pieces...but for the first time....this is the first band who i hav seen to hav actually get a better bandmate(in this case the vocalist) not sayin tht lisa is bad ...but after seeing this...kerstin is better :D
MIss you kirsten so much...your one of the best singer I've hear with amazing voice who can nail note to note all song of xandria...wish you a better life forever kisten..and forever you a xandria in my heart..:(.......who's next to you that will comes up to xandria as singers hope will be one of the best too......I won't say melissa ferlaak...but base on the way she sing...Yes she can..\m/..I know Xandria will make a better choice as what they done when they choose kirsten before..Peace..\m/
this is not Nightwish, but i still think of their error. Xandria is another thing. and Xandria change an exelent singer like Lisa for an even better (in my opinion) singer as Kerstin. they made a great job on finding a new singer
Awesome voice, shame lisa had to leave but i'm guessing that being in the same band with someone can leave you with little to talk about especially in the earlier stages of marriage, so i'm guessing that lisa and nils have got a better relationship now they're not with each other all the time.
Lisa has beautiful nice and soft voice. Kirsten has got in a little bit another colour of voice, but also good! When I fist have heard Xandria with her I would think it's a good band
omg she`s awesome they couldn`t find a better replacement for lisa, and its sad that she leaved but i also like kerstin alot and her vibrato i think its just perfect
Me desculpe o comentário mas Kerstin no meu ponto de vista é melho que Lisa! A final cantoras líricas se destacam,além de tornar o som da banda bem mais agradável!
150bsF la entrada para XANDRIA en venezuela... que biennnn..!!! it is not expensive my friends... come to enjoy ... 25 de agosto..!! Kerstin is a good singer and she has a beutiful voice..!!! todos a XANDRIA...!!!!!!!!
We cant judj now before the new album be out but she is so good in live on stage and she is so beautiful and she has strong personal then Lisa but voice of lisa is bitter if we will look at this live video but before the new album We cant juadj any thing and we have do not think they are now the next old nightwish
Siiii, Xandria vienen a neustro pais el 25 del mes q viene!!! tu vas???! Yo siii.... La verdad mas me hubiese gustado ver a Lisa, pero como q' se llevaba mal con la banda, por ello el cambio, y por motivos personales... Ahhh y la voz de Kerstin es mas grave q la de Lisa, pero igual se nota que es muy buena, ansío ese día bastante!
Xandria se presentará en Venezuela el 25 de Agosto del presente año, lo malo es el cambio tan improvisto de vocalista y haber empezado una gira sin un disco en estudio con la nueva cantante, para así familiarizarse con el nuevo timbre de voz, ya que a pesar de ser bueno es diferente que el de Lisa.
Lisa had a very pretty melodic voice that, in some ways, suited the music better - at least on the albums. But technically, Kerstin is a better singer. Not to mention being a much better live performer.
wow, she's amazing. i am happy for xandria that they finally found a singer who is worthy to sing their songs. now they dont have to hide any longer behind other bands in this genre...:)
I am more than happy to find out that Xandria is still in a great way!! Kerstin´s voice is not as sweet as Lisa´s but she sound amazing!!, I am sure that Xandria´s old songs will stil sound as good as in the old days. I hope that Nightwish and Tristania some day realized that they lost a lot when they decided to hire those not at all metal singers.
Hmm... to tell the truth what first attracted me to the band was Lisa's sweet voice but was the music as a whole and not just the singer what I ended up loving, Kirsten really does a great job in Xandria, her voice really flows well with the old songs (unlike some new singers of other female fronted bands who sound very forced at times) and I'm really looking forward to seeing them live when they come to my country. Good, good.
Thanks for this video, tis take away soem of my fear that Xandria have change totaly after the greatest singer in history Lisa goes another way, who leads from Xandria!
Are that someone here who knows if Lisa Middehauve plays in another band?
I can't find her somewhere on myspace or youtube in another band...
de acuerdo con ustedes muchachos...muchas bandas tendria que aprender a elegir una cantante...
me gusta mucho Kerstin Bischof...obvio que duele la partida de lisa... pero bueno.. y estoy feliz..porke xandria va a venir por primera vez a mi pais (Argentina) y los voy a poder ver :D
La verdad es que tiene una voz muy bella y encaja perfecto con las viejas canciones de Xandria. Nunca dejaré de extrañar a Lisa, pero Kerstin hace un gran trabajo. 100% de acuerdo con Dulcineri y Deityofdisgust, es el primer cambio de vocal decente que hemos tenido en años y que no mata a la banda.
wow! que buena es! no es que sea mejor que lisa, solo tiene un estilo diferente y es muy bueno...Felicitaciones, y estoy de acuerdo con Deityofdisgust, pero a esos sumeles a Sirenia, semejandte vocal de medio pelo que tienen ahora
@JaymzFB Oh si, era demasiado bueno para ser verdad, pero bueno, ahora sólo resta esperar que encuentren a alguien adecuado y sobre todo, que con tanta inestabilidad no peligre la existencia de la banda.
I don't care if she's better or not than lisa, both are great, and The band is still alive that's all i care, and can't wait to see Xandria in Colombia this august!
OMGosh she's amazing! Definitely far better than I expected. I agree, they made a great choice.
Kerstin has a lot more control over her voice than Lisa, and more skill. Not to mean any offence to Lisa - she still rocks. =) But I'm really to hear more from Kerstin.
Wow. I'm so glad to hear they've made a very good choice. I loved Lisa's voice although I knew it wasn't perfect, not even a good one but Kerstin is way better. Anyway, I like them both. :)
so graet kerstin singin' ; i cant wait until august30th to hear that, will be AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE so far away, she will rock :)
And Kerstin didn't stay whereas Lisa came back to support Xandria.
