Your voice is not bad... it just doesn't fit the song... it's not a happy voice, you sound sad when it's a REALLY happy song. Maybe you would sound better with old Tarja songs, not sure.
Nice cover, never the less, I think that Leila (vocals) works better with the old Nightwish covers. Her voice is Tarja's style, not Anette's. You shoud try Nightguest or Ever Dream :D
You guys (and girl) are great and I enjoy listening to these covers !!
However I must say that, because of your ability to sing in Tarja's style, this video shows how the new album would sound like if it was sung by her and it just doesn't fit, because Tuomas wrote it for Anette's voice and singing style.
I think that you can sing like Anette just as well if you try, though, so keep on doing the good covers !
Hey all, I like to thank you for uploading this video !! For 5 minutes I could imagine how this song would sound with Tarja. I think Nightwish is still producing amazing music and Anette has a nice voice and im still a fan of this band, but I like this style so much more. Thank you!!!
This cover is impressive, I look forward to hearing more from you. I especially enjoy how varied and wholesome you sound when having only three members, i.e. often a band loses the wide, interesting sound when multiple essential instruments are played by the same persons.
I agree with those who say that this is not the vocal style in which this song sould be performed...you have a beautiful voice, I've heard the other covers, but old nightwish style has nothing to do with storytime...this is also the reason why NW have chosen Anette as a singer of theirs. Nevertheless you don't have to imitate her, only to come closer to a more "modern" style, quicker and a little agressive, working on your own voice ;)
@UltraMasterProFi Sorry for the late response, my guitar chain is guitar->computer hahaha, i use a Line6 Toneport GX (now called PODStudio GX) and then I use PODFarm on the computer for the effects.
The PODFarm chain is Noise Gate-> Amp (Dual Rectifier)->Delay (no delay for rhythms, just leads)->Reverb (almost no reverb for rhythms).
Then the track is compressed and EQed in the mix (on Cubase).
I liked it but you guys might want to work on the producing and editing a little bit. I don't want to go into deitals but if you do want me to just email me. Also I love your vocie Leila but this song wasn't made for that high of notes. I know you guys are trying to be a little diffrent and that's okay but just watch the few things that will sound bad at the end again if you want more feed back ask me or more deital but other than those small things I loved it you guys are great.
Great cover, best of the ones I've seen on YouTube. Only thing is your vocals. You have a great voice, just you held the notes longer than the original. Not bad, just different. It bothered me at first, but at the end I liked it. Also, you seemed kind of monotone to me, like you didn't fluctuate between notes, it was all just a few notes. But awesome job, keep it up. What's your band name?
Well done guys. technically absolut perfect. if you like, i am looking forward for a cover of older songs, for example Gethsemane. hereby, the voice of the singer should fit perfect.
Ok, i understand that your style of singing is similar to that of Tarja's, but dont bleed the words into the next one. The song isn't meant to be very legato, but i bet this cover is as close to good as any band will get. Very nice job, the band itself is awesome.
Now, you don't have to do this BUT, the song is meant to be a bit maniacal, and you looked pretty sad singing it :P since its a video, you should have a bit of insanity in your eyes like anette when she eats that apple during the solo
Good cover, but the vocals were not good... Storytime sounds easy but it is not, and the song doesn't sound well in a "Tarja's style", I think the vocalist tried to do it "as Tarja would do it" and it ruined the version.
The chorus of this song is no possible to be sung with streght if you don't push voice so people you should relax about it. Anette uses another technique.
I really liked this version!!! All the guys played awesome now i shall see deep silent complete! I think is a very worthy to watch cover!!!
@SakumaRyuichiNG It's not a matter of pushing the voice, nor the air. It has to do with placing the voice with resonators such as nose, forehead, jaw, and chest basically. For me it took 9 years to be able to START placing my voice properly using operistic technics, because it requieres the growth of the muscles involved at singing. Consider also points such as she is using another mic, a hot compression on the voice during mixing could have turned down the powerful parts.
I think you Leila pull this song with your singing better than Anette. I don't have anything against that artist, it's just that her singing is too poppish. You in other hand made sound more nightwish that I've been expecting since Tarja left and hoped for someone who can bring the same feeling to new nightwish songs :)
It's really good to hear some girl who can actually sing in this youtube video covers. But the girl can't sing this song. It's sounds really, really strange. First of all you need to understand the song, secondly - try to modify it by yourself. And maybe a little bit of practising wouldn't hurt. :)
Anyway the band is really good. I like the idea of using some parts of original instrumental version. :) To sum up, I think this "amateur" band is the one of the most talented bands on YouTube!:)
everything's well except the vocals.. the chorus sounds very floaty. the backup vocals isn't enhancing her voice as well. either the mix gotta be tweaked, or she needs to sing with more power. but still it's a good job. I've been following ur band, and will continue to do so. =)
i like it! :) but this girl's voice is more "opera" than anette's "screamy" voice, so maybe to try not to copy original song but to modify it a little bit, so this great girl's voice come to expression :)
the teaser was made very shortly after its release, i used simply one element of the orchestral track in the chorus, revisioned it and made an own version, Im glad you liked that! but in this full band cover I fully analyzed the orchestrals and recorded them like they sound (almost) excactly on the original... about the 2nd voice, thats excactly the same 2nd voice as in the original...
Amazing voice :)

The bass is wrong sometimes you don't play the small "solo" that Marco play.
For the guitar, the pinch harmonic it is not this but the harmonic in the G chord at the 12 by scraping the middle of the micro neck.
But really nice keyboard playing ! :D
