[OrionsRepresentative]

After the turmoil and.... crap

[YusufAlaseeri]

"She's suffering from sickness"

"Alright!"

[GrowingObsession]

youre welcome <3

[TrixieSatyr]

seriously, how do you not love this man? not even in a romantic type way necessarily. he is just such a good person!

[Jynx215]

tuomas is amazing, and he is a GENIUS composer. this goes without saying that he is COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY SEXY! xD

[MsGothica666]

i went to the birmmingham and the bloodstock concerts last year amaaaziiiiiiinnnnnnnnnggg :)

[MsGothica666]

they are amazing live i love tuomas ^^:)

[aprilrain89]

"veryone kows what youtube's about" damn right:P, even though we all do it we all know we often come to youtube to wine about everything:P

[Nelli915]

tuomas was smart not to say anything about tarjas album bcuz people take things completely out of context. but it would be nice to hear if he still likes tarja maybe a chance of bringing her back idk.... :)

[xnightxamex]

"i hope it never grows old" lol it changes and evolves too much to grow old ;D

[barunka0010]

I love Tuomas. He is the BEST!!! And his voice is really amazing and sexy :D

[ClaudiaDenise]

you know it must be something in their race

because many finnish male musicians i have heard sound like that...

have you heard ville valo speaking??

low and very masculine voice xD

[passgodtpaadegselv]

Tuomas is so... GOD!

[BoUrnNe26]

I'm glad to hear that he and Tarja are still on somewhat good terms and that they don't completely hate each other.

[Lapsellinen]

cuz that's how Finns would read her name,they read as they write,every letter for itself

[Ladydarkshadow]

WOW and the Siren is Anette's best song now in my opinion!

[shadoworacle44]

Very wise choice on Tuomas and Tarja's no review policy on each others new CD's.

[IanGriffithsGuitar]

What a great interview. That last comment of Tuomas was so incredibly sincere! I love how down-to-earth he is.

[tycolove]

I had the great fortune and pleasure to meet him and speak with him a few nights ago, and I have to say he is one of the most down-to-earth and humble people I have seen. He's so amazing. I got to talk with Marco as well, and I only met with Empuu and Jukka. All in all, it was an amazing night to be sure :)

[mirzaitziar]

I liked that he decided not to coment on tarjas album..theyre both great...im not against any of them...they have their shannigans we have ours. He's a genious by the way! i just simply LOVE TUOMAS!

[anda0105]

maybe because finns read words as they write it (Tuomas is spelled "too-oh-mass" and so on ;)

[hedwigjoey]

I LOVE HIM HE ROCKS.....

[plutoniangirl]

excellent questions actually!

[szszgerda]

oh, Tuomas is sexy!! :D

[sanctus0natura]

I wonder why they send each other their albums. To show that "that's how it's done, mate"?

[sanctus0natura]

That last one was meant for ImaginaryVoncroy

[RivanaNightwish]

Great interview, one of the best actually, thanks for posting!

<3 Nightwish <3

[iluvsystemofadown]

o god this is why i LOVE nightwish the most!! the band cares for its fans so much!! especially tuomas, hes so passionate about his music. THanky ou nightwish! ill always listen to you.

[BizenghastGhost]

Tarja lacks stamina?? Is he fucking stupid? Has the man listened to the pre-Anette songs and the high notes that Tarja needed to hit? Listen to the Phantom of the Opera song and tell me who wouldn't need a 2 minute break after putting so much strain on their vocal cords.

[ImaginaryVoncroy]

Tarja's The Phantom of the Opera is ultregeous compared to the original :S And for a soprano, Tarja's high notes in NW are not impressive at all, I bet she can do better than that...

[sanctus0natura]

Yeah, except she's asked not to as it doesn't go all that well with some of the songs.

[windguide147]

Go on Tuomas and Nightwish!! We'll be with you forevermore <3!

[twilightcrowflight]

the reporter's voice bugs me. otherwise, its a better interview than some.

[lindssnape]

"We all know what YouTube is all about"

... er, obsessive fans on the boarder of insanity? ie; Me?

lol.

Great interview though. Thanks heaps for posting!

[inu4kagfan4eva]

*giggles* zomg...he looks so bashful at the end. We will be here forever Tuomas! Rock on!!!!!

[xxxthoughtlessxxx]

"My god you counted! 0.o" WOW Tuomas. He said that in an unexpected loud tone. WOw. I just gained all my respect for this guy back.

Like Tuomas wrote on D.C.O.W: "It's time to turn back time follow the pale moonlight". For me, this means turn back time, remember Tarja's Era in the band, and follow the path to Anette's Era! XD I'm ridiculous sometimes but I thought that line fit perfectly well here! XD

[sanctus0natura]

precisely my thoughts (on gaining back my respect for him). also, I recommend that some of you listen closer when he talks about not being in charge of things, or how it happened that amaranth became the first single, et cetera.

[xxxthoughtlessxxx]

I did hear the part about Amaranth being the first video single. They should've done a video for T.P.A.T.P. Do you KNOW HOW AMAZING THAT WOULD BE!?! The Islander already rocks. :)

[Howleron]

hell yes they should, but no tv station wld play it cuz its 2 long, and if they shorten it its just not the same. plus, it may be a bit too dark for tv.

[BritneySpearsRox]

great interview

[Estelindis]

Fantastic interview. Thanks for posting! Good questions and nicely thought out answers from Tuomas. Message at the end was really touching. :)

[areyouqq]

very very nice interview. thanks

[RYKS84]

his english is pretty good!

[damslam]

tuomas seems confident in this interveiw.sweet

[dragonprincess001]

that was a really great interview.

now I know why they hadn´t play Ever Dream in Dortmund on the concert.

[playgroundlove91]

can't wait for bloodstock :D

[thecookiemonsterka]

He is so charismatic and mesmeric!He's a real magician and master of songwriting!I give a bow!

[grace7777]

Great interview!

[gorgerak]

so thats why they didnt play Ever dream...

dam i was really looking foreward to that and was devasted when they didnt play it - but it was the best weekend of my life and pain were awsome too

thankx Nightwish

[cspectree]

Oh Tuomas! he's such a gentleman always so respectful towards Tarja

and when he looks at the camera, i almost fainted! his sight! makes the sinful thoughts pourrrrrr

very nice interview it was pleasing to see

[thecookiemonsterka]

I wonder if Tuomas has a girlfriend.I haven't heard anything about his personal life.

[Soccxlover]

actually nobody knows, he does not talk about his private life neither does emppu.

as you might know jukka does and you know from anette and marco that they have kids. (jukka does too of course :P) but tuomas is not homosexual if you want to say that. he answered this question already in a 'nightmail' session. hope i could help ya ^^

[AndThereTheyWere]

"he answered this question already in a 'nightmail' session."

Actually, he's had to answer that question more than just once.

Oh, and apparently he did have a girlfriend a few years ago (in 2003 or 2004) but I don't think he's seeing anyone at the moment (some tabloids said he was dating Jonsu of Indica, but the rumours turned out to be false).

[xxxthoughtlessxxx]

What question?????

[uncaressedamaranth]

he cirrently has a girlfriend and they were sen in many restaurants and so on...well, it's Jonsu...from Indica

[PsychoFlunky]

wow, finally, an interview where the interviewer wasnt stupid, thank you for this

:)

[smilereni]

Thank you very much for this interview :)
