Tarja Turunen - Naiad (What Lies Beneath - 2010)

[MrsNaranja]

Live version sounds much better ;)

[chri2453]

I think that due to the split, both Nightwish and Tarja dropped down to 90 % of their potential - which is still enough to beat all the other crap that is out there.

[xashfordx]

this album is just pure perfection. I liked Tarja with Nightwish, but not that she is solo, she is able to use her whole voice and express herself so much more.

As for Nightwish now, they are ok, Annette is alright. Dark Passion Play was ok but for their new album Imaginarium- it is horrid in my opinion (which is ashame because i was excited to hear it) but oh well.

[jeffplante]

I prefer Tarja now than when she was in Nightwish and i prefer Nightwish now that anette sing! i am very happy aboit solo career of Tarja, i think she use her voice at it's full potencial! And Nightwish with anette is very awesome!

[Blackedition0]

Her voice is so beautiful <3 I could listen to it for hours

[Marshallsatten]

Thank you for the translation.

[smellychef]

this song is just sex fuck i can't believe this artist has so less hit's as Adelle rlling in the deep music is up the shit

[Marshallsatten]

@smellychef I have a difficult time interpreting that. Do you mean that she is more sexy/female sounding than Anette?

[Marshallsatten]

@smellychef I still don't understand what you are trying to say.

[Marshallsatten]

@smellychef You have so much colloquial cussing, I don't know what you are trying to say.

[Marshallsatten]

Her voice is so beautiful.

[Marshallsatten]

I like her singing more all the time.

[ontayloro20]

Hauntingly beautiful :')

[Marshallsatten]

@ontayloro20 That it is.

[Marshallsatten]

Stranger than beatiful; eerie.

[NECROLORDZ]

In presence of a music goddess *reverence* Tarja 4ever!

[Lasgorndalf13]

The name of this song should "What Lies Beneath" and it should be the last song from the album... Not a bonus track

[Marshallsatten]

@Lasgorndalf13 I ordered mine from Europe so I wouldn't miss anything.

[TheBlowmind]

Masterpiece :)

[Marshallsatten]

@ISeeAnIdiot He said that in general, European bands were more into music as an art form than as the latest fad.

[Marshallsatten]

@Marshallsatten You did ask, and the US is full of pop. There are some good bands here, but they are not common.

[Marshallsatten]

@ISeeAnIdiot According to an interview, he thought US music was too "trendy".

[Marshallsatten]

@ISeeAnIdiot The drummer left the US and went to Europe for a reason.

[ClawRogue]

@LordKurthnega46 I thought so too when I first heard the intro :o

[FeloFilms]

this song is so brilliant, so magnificent, that i can picture it, i kind of, taste, every little bit of it, there's no bad part about this song, it's amazing, emotional, well produced, arranged... every thing about this song, instrument by instrument, sound by sound, is perfect

[VilleHermanniValo100]

she's absolutely magnificent!

[TheREALnorp]

If I ever have kids...they're going to get raised on this kind of music. Real music.

[Marshallsatten]

@TheREALnorp I ordered my eldest daughter this album from Europe.

[aguilaix]

Tarja as a soloist sounds hmmmm good, Tuomas (nightwish) without Tarja sounds hmmmmm good too, they need each other. Q' se dejen de joder! xD

[zeldagirl1234]

@domiukas1: Same here! WT and Tarja are my faves! Same with EPICA!

[omgcheese26]

its sad they dont have this album in America >.< i want it lol 

[Marshallsatten]

@omgcheese26 I ordered mine from the UK.

[MrChinowyc]

I love YOU TARJA !!!!

[masaoksa]

mahtava Kuusaan laulaja

[WhiteRoseWithering96]

Ok, I really didn't like My Winter Storm very much, but a lot of the What Lies Beneath songs are great! This and Anteroom of Death are my favs

[Marshallsatten]

Crimson Deep is probably my favorite on the album.

[131541a]

Larga vida para Tarja // Tarja long life // Tarja pitkäikäinen // Tarja lange levensduur // Tarja ตลอดชีวิต // Tarja lång livslängd // Tarja longa vida // Tarja ar feadh an tsaoil // Tarja lunga vita // タルヤ長寿命 // Tarja long de la vie // 塔里壽命長 // Jeta Tarja gjatë

[whispersthebreeze]

Goth rock metal opera. Along with Within Temptation and Evanescence Tarja shapes my soul! However I love Anette too (no one can say that "Dark passion play isn't a brilliant album) Without that split Tarja would not have come up with this equally brilliant album.

[ADyingFaith]

@whispersthebreeze Love your wonderful comment. I agree completely with everything you've said.

[Amarantherocks]

@whispersthebreeze Listen to the new Nightwish CD it's good. I'm more of a Nightwish, Leave's eye's, Tarja fan my self. I like Evanescence, but I was not to thrilled by their last CD.

[whispersthebreeze]

@Amarantherocks Yeah I agree on your comment about Evenescense' last CD. I'm listening to a bit of Epica atm.

[IchFresseTitanJa]

Tarja is something special.

[ghostxflower]

this is so beautiful,

but I kind of miss the mix of her voice with metal music in the background:/

[dieseldog00]

@ghostxflower So do I. I love her voice, especially when she layers it, but this music is too tame. I want to hear Norse fire and brimstone!

[LordZeRMoN]

Anette who ?

[AthenaandOdin]

this is called "what lies beneath" on my album

[IvanTsarina]

@AthenaandOdin it has two names xD wLB and Naiad

[RosesofWillows]

this is a beautiful song, but one thing bothers me. This picture...it looks like tarja's neck is hairy. bleh!

[KhamulYT]

@RosesofWillows it`s makeup ... a scar... The whole theme "What Lies Beneath" .. it's up to your imagination... there are other pictures like this...

[MajinLao]

10 Anette fans click "don't like" :)

[Feanor2345]

@MajinLao

Yeah, ALL Anette fans:P

[apocalypticlife]

@MajinLao Sorry to disappoint you but I am an Anette fan and I definitely LOVE this song ;)

[NewDivded]

@apocalypticlife I'm a Tarja fan. :3 Specially after that I heard and saw her crying because she was kicked from the band without to know they find Anette behind her back. :/ We can say that the members destroyed Anette to me.

[mc23243]

@NewDivded they didn't dismiss Tarja because of Anette. Anette was chosen from 1000 singers two years after Tarja left, so don't blame Anette.

p.s. I love both Tarja and Anette very much

[NewDivded]

@mc23243 Well, that's what I heard. I saw the clip when she told everyone. NO ONE told her about it till she was fired. According to the translation.

[TheDolorousSpirit]

very nice. i think i like minor heaven a liddle more but could be my favorite song #2

[RosesofWillows]

thank goodness! i thought she was going to disappear after "My Winter Storm"

i need to start following her again.

[OceanbornAngel]

I think the singing is fine, but we have so few vocally capable singers in metal bands that I wish she would make a strictly Metal album one of these days.

[GothicgirlNG]

just perfect 

[Marshallsatten]

@ISeeAnIdiot When I looked up the name, your are correct, they are water nymphs of specific springs of water.

[Nochnoidozor18]

Tarja Turunen 4 EVER!!

[AlexLifer]

Just only one word to tell about Tarja...Epic <3

[zelrikriandooo]

@ISeeAnIdiot You are right. I need something new, but this is not it.

[zelrikriandooo]

What a waste. Her voice deserves better.

[DAVALOS442]

this song gives me the goosebumps. A real MASTERPIECE.

[DonOmar06]

Anybody know what this song about? All I know its a masterpiece ..

[trustweaver]

This is stunning. There is so much emotion in her songs.

[defygravity1000]

Truly the greatest singer in the world! She inspires me greatly!

[aske0579]

Luv the Intro :D

[chopantura]

unfortunately I don't have the words to describe how beautiful this song is,it's beyond my strength

[11Evanescence13]

Question. :] I'm importing the deluxe Cd onto Itunes right now but it said this song was "Najad" not Naid With the i lol. Anyone have any idea? & It says the song it 7:22 minutes.? Weeeird. Thank you(:

[darkasasin007]

A masterpiece, indeed!

[diesirae16]

I like the deluxe Version, although i don't buy this

[kallekaskas]

My winter storm was exactly like listening to a winter storm and this is exactly like being under the surface finding out what lies beneath! Tarja ROCKS!

[Marshallsatten]

@kallekaskas I agree.

[Igloofucker]

I have the deluxe version of this album and I completly forgot that there was a second disk. This song has been being missed by me for so long!

[simonshk]

wonderful music, i love uTarja .

[Mzscenemo]

Tarja Is An Amazing Singer And is Amazingly Gorgeous!! Love This Song

[Marshallsatten]

Tarja. this album is your best yet. You keep up your beautiful voice.

[darkanddeepmusic]

always when I listen to this, I can feel myself floating in the deep sea between all sorts of strange water-creatures and water-plants, especially the strings are lovely beyond description

after listening to WLB you can't compare her to her days in Nightwish anymore. it feels like she has found her (wonderful) path :D

[RaffaellaQ]

@darkanddeepmusic I find myself is some kind of fantasy world,like in the Lord of the rings movie! Her music always reminds me of such kinds of movies.

[Bugplayer1]

SHIT

[geobetdagon]

NO SE PUEDE EXPLIKAR ESTA ROOLA!! simplement es de lo mejor!! TARJA 4EVER

[gircelio]

muito linda

[TheDarkthrone88]

I LOVE YOU TARJA!!!!!!!! <33333333333333

[gothivan]

Ésta canción bien merece soportar el nombre del album completo... es una genialidad!!!... creo que ésta canción debió ser elegida como un sencillo oficial y no la canción Falling Awake, que se me hace demasiado "pop", aunque reconozco tiene algo bueno.. el album me encantó, al igual que My Winter Storm, ambos son maravillosos!!

[ederpauli]

Simply splendid!!!

[DulleMetalGod]

Tarja is now as the always she was and should ever be ! Perfect album, this is the right feeling, the same when i ve heared her voice first time. Bravo Tarja !!! Kissss....

[Albino1701]

at least I could yell "I LOVE YOU!!" at her during her concert in Luxembourg. I can happily die now ;)

[GothFaery65]

Why isn't "I Feel Immortal" on this album? There's an official video for it, and says it's from this album??????

[singingsparklygirl]

@GothFaery65 Let me guess. You're an American? Same here, and I can't get it anywhere either. Grr...

[geobetdagon]

genial genial hermosa....

[voltz15]

I was kinda stuck in a state of awe when I first heard this. I know it's obviously the title track for the album, but it's only on the deluxe edition??

[KhamulYT]

@voltz15 Japan "What Lies Beneath" version <-- three songs from (deluxe edition/Bonus disk) including Najad are on the main album CD... I realy don't know why Najad isn't on the "normal" edition, this song is amazing!

[ADyingFaith]

Love this beautiful song.

[drachenlady1976]

Taja`s voice is magic - her voive always leaves goosebumps on my skin...

[oOMareike95Oo]

the album is so beautiful :))

is grat tarja is wonderful :))

[Adrianabunbury]

this whole album is amazing but this is my favorite song

[ave0satani]

it's not the same,but she still good...but I miss a lot the old times with nightwish....

[kristynakkk]

The whole album is a unique stuff in the heavy music industry. When I remember her in the commercial Nightwish, I think what she does now can be described as walking the moon. I am always very sad when I hear girls screaming at her concerts to sing some of the Nightwish stuff like Nemo. WLB is a masterpiece. I love that I cannot stop listening to it.

[cuttlefisch]

One amazing epic track!!

[cuttlefisch]

Beat that, TuomASS!!

[geobetdagon]

... no puedo dejar de escucharla..

[geobetdagon]

woooow q cancion tan pacifika...

[daveehl1034]

I just finished listening to the album, and it is pretty good. I think the best thing she could do now is actually get a permanent band behind her. The music, while enjoyable, definitely has a "Studio Musician" sound to it. Would be good if there could be more chemistry in the songwriting.

[orianexxx]

Tarja, Vendredi, j'enguie que tu nous chante cette sublime chanson :)

[geobetdagon]

hermosa rola...

[Meriel109]

simplemente genial!! *.*

[alice0t]

I feel like I'm swimming in a magical sea when I listen to this song...Amazing

[MrsCocoCandy]

@alice0t ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sirmcclellan]

name font in "TARJA" pls!!!

I LOVE YOU TARJA!!! U WONDERFUL!!!

[gmen44]

I love Tarja but I am not impressed with any of her solo stuff. Who is producing this crap for her? Geez. I mean remakes of Alice Cooper and Whitesnake songs, please. This stuff is garbage. Tarja please either re-unite with Nightwish or find a better producer. Your talent is being wasted. What a shame.

[KhamulYT]

@gmen44 1. .. the Whitesnake ("Still Of The Night") cover is fantastic! 2. .. "Naiad" , "Rivers of Lust", "I feel Immortal", "In for a kill", "crimson deep" and "Falling Awake" are Masterpieces 3. .. Nightwish re-unite? wtf ur talking about after 5 years with Anette! (i agree Tarja > Anette but this will nerver happen) 4. .. "producing this crap for her?" TARJA produced it by herself!

[Adrianabunbury]

@gmen44 I think that you are wrong about this, Tarja is an amazing songwriter and musician, this song naiad is wonderfull, beauty and delicious for listening. you shouldn´t live in the past because you´re wasting your time, nigthwish died in 2005. I prefer tarja solo than the new nightwish, is more nightwish doesn´t exist in my mind.

you should listen the whole album WLB is great and wonderfull.

[gmen44]

@Adrianabunbury Music is an individual thing. We all have our likes,dislikes and opinions. I respect yours. I"m glad you like her solo stuff. I wish I did, but I don't. I mean some of it is o.k. but most of it I can't listen to. I think she is enjoying her self since she left Nightwish and thats great. Its a free world after all and she can do whatever she wants. But as a fan I dont have to like everything she does. As a singer she is in a league all by herself. So she will be fine.

[Adrianabunbury]

@gmen44 well i respect your opinion too, it´s not bad miss the old days as the old saying "all the past was better", but look to the present and the future. I don´t deny that every time I see the old videos of NW I get homesick, but then I hear WLB and I thank to God because at least we have Tarja that has shown to be a great artist in every way possible.

[IvanTsarina]

@Adrianabunbury bueno, yo no extraño tanto el viejo NW porque sé que Tarja en sus conciertos tranquilamente puede revivir cualquier canción. Y sí, WLB es un álbum lleno de hermosas letras y excelentes melodias. Tarja logra distanciarse del sonido de NW para sonar a Tarja

[Adrianabunbury]

@IvanTsarina tsari, no te niego que en algunas ocasiones miro los antiguos videos y me da nostalgia, pero definitivamente me quedo con Tarjita como está ahora se ve que es mas feliz y ha mostrado su propio estilo en este nuevo album. es lo que le decia a @gme44 que no estaba mal añorar los tiempos pasados pero que hay que mirar hacia el presente y hacia el futuro.

[AlexLifer]

Tarja I love you...

[KhamulYT]

@ISeeAnIdiot it seems like ... i´m with you to.

[Adrianabunbury]

@ISeeAnIdiot Yes, I also hate that letter, I feel in very bad mood every time mention it and for tuomas i just stop loving him, he was a coward !!! my love for NW died after that letter.

[Adrianabunbury]

@ISeeAnIdiot you´re right!!!

[franqui0077]

4 dislikes?? fuck bitches ;)

[KhamulYT]

@franqui0077 only Justin Bieber fans don´t even think about it. ;) this song is epic ... and Tarjas vocals are HOLY SH...! SEXY!

[r3dd3vil82]

i donno.... tarja without nightwish seems to be an incredible voice without the icing on the cake :/

[IvanTsarina]

@r3dd3vil82 and NW without Tarja is pure crap!

[agominator]

@IvanTsarina then why you look at those videos?????? just ignore them instead of critizising those who like masterpieces like this

[IvanTsarina]

@agominator what are you talking about???? I love Tarja. She is my favourite singer and my favourite solo artist. Learn to read before commenting, dumbass!

[agominator]

@IvanTsarina sorry it wasnt for you the comment

[mim1800]

tarja for ever and ever <3

[AlexLifer]

epic.. <3 Tarja 4 ever

[KhamulYT]

what a song !!!! Oo ... excellent! gr8 album!

[Adrianabunbury]

jajaj Tuomas should be very jealous of this beautiful song

[andrzejm1234]

I've heard that live... Masterpiece!!

[TheOldNightwish]

The esence of the ocean contained in 7 minutes

[Evnightlerd]

It's ok, but I think I expected something more... rymth is really CELESTIAL, but voice is like.. I don't know, she does not dare to overtake her notes, to reach new levels.

[frontlinenation]

The name is NAIADE. Why in the hell the english spoken change the original names for everything and then believe the real name is the one they use?

[voltz15]

Deluxe edition only... and how could someone be so selfish in depriving others from hearing this?

[PNemoEsponja]

Why this song is not in the standar version of the album? It's amazing

[Kenzia91]

I am carried away.....literally.

[4Lv4r0c]

eargasm!

[mauevil4]

Sublime!!! ajj

no se

es un orgasmo musical

[animallover19921]

@mauevil4 porque dices que es un orgasmo musical?

[dinamicjoker]

The best Evar!

[Vanadise666]

I've heard this live few days. She is amazing live and the concert was great! :)

(01.10 - 02.10.2010 she was in Poland)

[Kingusia26]

@Vanadise666 I agree:) Tarja is just wonderful and the concert was great!!!

[elemica]

Magnifique, les mots manques...

[kalathemok47]

Tarja..this album is a masterpiece!!

[crywithasmile87]

why in the HELL was this song a b-side? It's better than 75% of the new album

[nightwish1603]

@crywithasmile87 Completely agree. Most of the other songs are mediocre but this is by far the best (together with Anteroom of Death). No idea, why it's just in the Special Edition. Maybe it's too long?

[TarjaRox555]

@nightwish1603 Tarja explained that this song is very special for her and she wanted it to be exeptional and not for everyone. She just wanted it to be still so special.

[IvanTsarina]

@TarjaRox555 mmm... really? she said that? 

[TarjaRox555]

@IvanTsarina Yes. In an iterview for polish magazine called "Teraz Rock" :)

[Adrianabunbury]

this song is very very good, is amazing, her voice is so beautiful

[PamPamxD]

excellent song, excellent singer with a beautiful woman.......... :) Love tarJItaa <3

[PamPamxD]

excellent song, excellent singer with a beautiful woman.......... :) Love tarJItaa <3

[RandomPerson8908]

I'm glad she didn't include this one in the actual album...

Still, though, it's nice to be able to hear it here.

[noonkaya]

me encanta esta canción, es mágica, extraordinaria... Es como si te transportara a las profundidades, muy bien lograda.... De las mejores del album y antes la odiaba!!! jajaja

[samyff1]

Wow ! Best Song of this Album ! Best Part from 0.00 to 7.18

[samyff1]

@samyff1 Ouh 0:00 to 7:18

[gitorodri]

she found the perfect sound and music style for her....AMAZING

[XXNIGX]

es uno de las canciones que mas me gusta todo el album esta chido ,me gusta mas que my winter storm

[Jan1987RO]

Lame
