[Yougetanabo4myfist]

[WolfChild13]

TO EVERYONE WHO LOVES TARJA:

For those of you who want her to come back, please google: 'Nightwish Open Letter to Tarja' and click the link leading to the band's official site.

THAT is whey she's not coming back.

[duncpol]

nice video ....but my ears recognize that sound quality is below 128 kbps

[Marcuss07CzK]

Nightwish my favourite BAND TARJA BACK PLZ

[blackdragonthebad]

WHAT'S WITH THE SOUND QUALITY ON THIS VIDEO!?

[AngusNitro41]

@blackdragonthebad this was uploaded 7 years ago. that's why

[SirHaakon]

@blackdragonthebad Oh, that's what the band used to sound like when Tarja was singing. ;-)

[Sebunaz]

gary moore cover

[yumikazamee]

@Sebunaz no, Phil lynott cover.

[mrtrampandhiscat]

@yumikazamee no gary moore

[PianoBlackSky]

Tarja looks kinda like a duck. 

[AriaNycyus]

Both singers are great, as long if you have the great attitude for it, it doesnt matter what it makes to be a singer of a band. or which person etc.

[JustinMarkWright]

RUBBER BAND OF WOLVES (FROM FINLAND) WERE FUCKING AWESOME LAST-NIGHT!

[MrMontilius]

Over the hills and fucking far away :D TRUE music!!!

[bumboks4]

amazing clip :D

[jaegae3182]

[BEFIREFLY]

Gary Moore's ORIGINAL version kicks this one in it's finnish balls

[rawrtastic22]

its an awsome song but the quality is nasty

[wublyful]

amg horribad quality..

[TheUngodlyProduction]

god people, who gives a fuck if a band changes, as long as the music stays good dont hate, and stop crying like children over bands that change. shit happens.

[jackblack559]

@TheUngodlyProduction I totaly agree with you! Nightwish are nightwish no matter if its Annete or Tarja! the music is still awesome and i think the new album is a Nightwish masterpiece. Cant wait for the tour to hit uk.

[Dragoon3109]

Jukka is perhaps one of the top 5 most badass drummers I have seen!

[Antin0ob567]

uploaded in 2005... must have been the best song at that time!

[MaxellaIV]

TARJA RULES!!!!!

[nummer1kirk]

Tarja, please come back!

Du bist unglaublich, mit Worten nicht zu beschreiben!

Kirk

[Magodeoz1998]

This song is very good.

I love Tuomas

[Gritsen]

I guess the guitarist played the solo from tabs. Pathethic.

[ZINTRA666PSYCHOPATH]

i love nightwish but amberian dawn is best \\m//

[osc0703]

I used to go over the mountains and far away! Now I can not, I took an arrow in the knee! :-(

[swiftdds]

@osc0703 that meme is getting so old and not even funny... -cry-

[kik805]

@osc0703 (face palm) stop it

[xXMusicxMadnessXx]

Such a legendary solo written by both Gary and Nightwish

[Gotcha10101]

Does anyone else wanna get up and start dancing because of this song? Lol

[TruBeliever4Life]

you know as much as i love tarja.... i got her solo albums......she needs a metal band to back her up

[BluPantaloni]

I wrote a comment here about 3 millenniums ago and I still get replies? -.-

I get it. You like Nightwish.

[stat3vil3]

......o voce cutremuratoare...magnificaaa!!­!!!!!

[MCMENOZ94]

thumbs up if you thought it was a cover of Led Zeppelin

[fedevai82]

@MCMENOZ94 I recently knew that Zeppelin had a song with the same name. I seriously need to go back to the beginning and re-educate myself.

[stupidegamerindustri]

vikings are from norway

[sebawishmaster]

I CAN NOT SAY "OH I DISCOVERED NIGHTWISH ONE DAY BECAUSE OF THIS SONG" I DON'T REMEMBER , I JUST FOUND THEM AND I LISTENED EVERY FUCKIN SONG THE SAME FUCKING DAY

[moisemihai12345]

annet is suck's

[moisemihai12345]

come back tarja to the nightwish ... 

[Pullakusi]

@moisemihai12345 It's not easy to come back if you've been fired... Just saying.

[Antiklimaxz]

@Pullakusi She didnt get fired... She agreed to do one more album then leave the band!

[Pullakusi]

@Antiklimaxz ... She was given a public letter where Tuomas told her she would have to leave the band, because they simply couldn't work together anymore because of her husband. After the End of an Era concert in 2005. I've read the book \o/

[kik805]

@moisemihai12345 She didn't leave, she was kicked out because she was getting kind of bitchy

[RRiBAFIshhhhh]

@moisemihai12345 fu*k her she was there not bcs fans..he was care only for money..sad..

[Vi1u]

@RRiBAFIshhhhh and still Tuomas got the biggest part of bands income.. So i wouldn't really say Tarja was the greediest one.

[RRiBAFIshhhhh]

@Vi1u i read letter that Toumas write to fans..there are reasons why she left band..and uf u ask me Anette is much better than Tarja..Tarja have "old school voice" and Anette is for "new generations"..just look at profit of Dark Passion Play and u will know what im talking about :)

[Vi1u]

@RRiBAFIshhhhh yah there were.. Tho i'd say that Anette is more for younger listerners taste, and Tarja for olders.. And about the profit of dark passion play, it rly is no wonder, they changed musicstyle too drastically towards for my taste..

[RRiBAFIshhhhh]

@Vi1u i agree on that..both of them have amazing voices..nothing can bring Tarja back so lets enjoy in new albums even though I am disappointed a bit with new one :/

[MicutaAlinuta]

@Vi1u i'm sorry but im 13 years old and i have a lot of friends(inclusiv me) who are still listening nightwish from when tarja was in the band and i can say that we are truly hating anette because she isnt made for this kind of music...she is more pop...we miss so much tarja...

[Vi1u]

@MicutaAlinuta Mhmh, okayh, i may have said something that isn't really true, but my overall point was that Anette has a voice made for more pop-stylish music..

[MrMontilius]

@Vi1u maybe but she was the chosen one for singer. She must have something special.

[jackblack559]

@moisemihai12345 They would not take tarja back as it was the other members who made her leave!!

[PianoBlackSky]

@jackblack559 All of you should do your research. The other bands didn't "make" her leave. She was being selfish, and had gotten much too greedy. The other band members decided that it was bringing Nightwish down, so they decided that Tarja and Nightwish should part ways. If you go to the actual Nightwish website, you can see the letter that Tuomas and the rest of the band wrote Tarja, explaining this. Nightwish had no choice. Tarja was being stupid. End of story.

[rayearth19]

@moisemihai12345

You know she was fired, Usually it is not up to her to come back when she was told to leave

[andreez1]

@rayearth19 Yet, I have a feeling that if Tarja ever considered her return to Nightwish, Toumas wouldn't even blink twice into accepting her back. But that's just me.

[Bulgarian021]

@moisemihai12345 Pointless cliches? Not that we donT adore Tarja but still-useless

[vladieboi]

@moisemihai12345 Well guess who's going to a Tarja concert in ~4 hours . : D

[mfLuci23]

@vladieboi son of a ...

[LVL100000]

Sounds like their talking about oddyseus.

[99wolfina]

I'm not fond of opera.. But rock opera :I I dont like rock opera at all... I LOVE IT :D

[1992morningstar]

my favorite fucking song in the world i must say her voice ughh like the angel of metal singing in my ears I LOVE U NIGHTWISH FOREVER <3

[dattebenforcer]

@1992morningstar as long as it's with Tarja singing.

[1992morningstar]

@dattebenforcer i do injoy both singers but yes i have to agree Tarja is amazing at what she does :)

[Wexingtn]

bad audio quality =(

[SkuIIKicker]

@Wexingtn Dude, this video was uploaded 6 years ago, what did you expect?

[Wexingtn]

@SkuIIKicker with almost 15 million views, more than that.

[SkuIIKicker]

@Wexingtn See, I think that was the only uploaded video for this song 2005-2009...

[IamRaWrRiFiC]

Insane keyboarding <3

[yonykpo]

aguante nightwish. tarja fuiste

[IMiss2K7]

Intense solo

[dirtydonki]

Fuck all the TWATS below. This is ROCK from GOD.

[TheSancho76]

Great ship! I like that Knarr!

[acstarstrukk86]

You guys are stupid. Stop talking about Led Zeppelin, for this is Nightwish's version of a Gary Moore song. Even though it's not as great as the Gary Moore version, it's really the best cover I have ever heard.

[Jojash177]

Does the start of his song remind anyone else of pirates?

[BlazerJaden]

@Jojash177 Actually found this song thanks to Alestorm on Pandora....

[01op02]

@Jojash177 yeah it does :o

[Lintinanims]

@Jojash177 Actually I was thing more of an Irish Jig :P

[apocalypseARK]

@Jojash177 Truly, it's from Ireland ... Nightwish just covered Gary Moore.

Malmsteen get the riff in "Braveheart", at this speed, it's fucking awesome !

[BecominTheBULL]

hahaha This CANT touch Gary Moore version!

[Adamisarocker09]

@BecominTheBULL FINALLY SOMEONE THAT AGREES!!!

[7Zhanamccormack]

I love them and this song is so epic

[mellow18425]

is it me or does Tuomas look like Johnney Depp LOL

[kalorikalmo]

@mellow18425 No I don't think so... Or maby you weren't talking about me, I'm also Tuomas...

[rugli]

fantastic

[Mr1stBro]

Good drummer

[raevynofficial]

I feel like Empuu is the only one who hasn't changed.

[BluPantaloni]

@raevynofficial Sure... -.-

[wahmot]

bad quality

[wootponage]

im sorry not transiberian orchestra i meant Evanesence....but maybe it was a 3 way between the bands idk. i hear a little bit of each one when i listen to these guys

[wootponage]

My brother told me about these guys and i gotta say i kinda like them. Its kinda like Dragonforce and The Transiberian Orchestra had a baby and this was the result

[tallboytiny]

I used to go over the hills and far away, then I took an arrow to the knee

[method006]

if u like the solo then listen to manowar they are fucking great

[TheCrisco182]

nightwish fucking rocks long live nightwish 

[Haxcz]

2:42 - 2:56

[FlowersLiberty]

It Just Takes One Word to Describe This ~ Awsome

[xtasyandirony]

[GaarasloveofLee]

[77leo77lexter77]

best instrumental

[bohrokbgs]

all the dislike botton shows is1178 peeps have shitty taste

[LCxCZ]

@bohrokbgs And the fact that you can't spell for shit, faggot.

[BluPantaloni]

Led Zeppelin anyone?

[122edvanas]

@BluPantaloni not even close the same song

[DETHFAN18ALL2]

@BluPantaloni Gary Moore dude. not Zeppelin.

[Vicioussama]

@BluPantaloni what about those thieves?

[dkjr6]

@Vicioussama thieves?



[Vicioussama]

@dkjr6 Don't you know Led Zeppelin stole a LOT of their music?

[dkjr6]

@Vicioussama whose nightwish?

[Vicioussama]

@dkjr6 No, others. Stairway to Heaven, a good portion of the music was stolen from Spirit (their song called Taurus). Dazed and Confused was stolen from Jake Holmes, etc. The list goes on and on.

[dkjr6]

@Vicioussama your an idiot. listen to both songs and they did not sound like either. hate people that hate on a band that did borrow some of there music. but many other good bands did that same excact things. do we have to blame one band when many others did the same thing?

[Vicioussama]

@dkjr6 Omfg you're an idiot. Led Zeppelin even opened for Spirit back before Led Zeppelin was big. Then they heard Taurus played. Stop being a tool that's a blatant fanboy and can't take the truth that one of your beloved bands stole their shit. They didn't borrow, they out right fucking STOLE. And just cause other bands did it doesn't mean it's ok. Those other bands suck for stealing too.

[grtwhtbnr]

@BluPantaloni thats how i ended up here...i like nightwish though

[MissUranija]

@BluPantaloni yup, they had great talent

[pjip]

@BluPantaloni WHAT IS THIS?! I'm allergic to bullshit, thats prolly why im sneezing like no tomorrow

[edwardwonderboy999]

@BluPantaloni Metallica or This song or much much Rock Bands!

[Antiklimaxz]

@BluPantaloni Gary moore actually

[damnicantfindanick]

@BluPantaloni Amm... It's a Gary Moore cover :)

[NorXMh]

[dratenik7]

very bad sound quality. It doesn't manage Tarjas voice

[theonlyone30100]

Nightwish! Nightwish! Nightwish! :D :D :D

[haibmtdj]

<3<3<3<3<3

[nagatora901]

This is the first Nightwish song I ever heard, and I pesonaly think its the best with Tarja in in it... Maybe second, still haven't decided if "I wish I had an Angel" is better.

[DaVide1991Marshall]

I am (i really am) in love with Her voice <3

[Adamisarocker09]

The original version (Gary Moore) will always be supreme. but this aint that bad

[lindarctica]

hehe.... first time i watch this vid since i been to Helsinki and Suomenlinna where this video was shot. I stood at Kings Gate myself... now i see this agian and i'm like heeey this look familiar XD

[Ohzorum]
