Nightwish - The Poet And The Pendulum @ Helsinki 2009

[TTommyth]

I hope Nightwish will do a tour with a full orchestra and play this amazing song.

[SymphonyOfSword2Swan]

Haha she says "severed heart" instead of saying "severed head"

[celticgirl08]

@SymphonyOfSword2Swan wonder if tuomas was ok with it ...

[ThePoetsWolf09]

Well, the operatic beginning is fucking awesome. I prefer that high pitched girlie voice as a opera part of Nightwish! Its so beautiful. Don't know about you guys.

[ritalinuserX]

when she sings "take me home" my spine gets chills

[burningcynders]

8 people got raped again and again...

[DeadToTheWorld92]

This is epic!! What more I need to say? Nightwish forever!!!

[XxSargeantTibbz117xX]

Simply awesome. I really don't get why some people hate Anette so much. She has an amazing voice!!! Oh well, there's just no pleasing everyone i suppose... :l I<3 Nightwish!!!!!!!

[AmuletofSamarkand]

I apologize if this question has already been asked, but do you have part two? This is the nicest quality recording of the Poet and the Pendulum from Hartwall that I have seen, and I would love to hear Anette's amazing finish on quality as nice as this.

[qSt0ned662]

@AmuletofSamarkand Thank you for your kind comment, and sorry for my late reply. And no, I'm afraid but I don't have that last part of this song :(

[AmuletofSamarkand]

@qSt0ned662

Ahh, okay. Well, still, thank you so much for this upload. I listen to it quite often ^_^

[sooshified]

why do people never upload the last part? :(

[emil9412]

@sooshified because youtube doesn't support vids that are over 10 min long, but u can find it here. just search "mother and father live hartwall 2009" and u'll find it :)

[nightwish231]

The best song ever made on fucking Planet Earth

[dylanno1fan]

This is absolutely EPIC! Amazing lightshow, fire, swiveling sparks, rotating blades of sparks, Tuomas "dieing" at the end with (atleast how i took it) his blood (confetti) squirting on the audience. This is amazing, and despite all i've read about there not being one. If there isn't a DVD i will be one upset fan :/. I hate living in the USA and missing such epic shows as this.

[Nightwishoneandonly]

my sister was there, but i wasnt :( damn

[ValDemari]

Anette is amazing!

[GBgirl16]

this song is totally epic!!!!! i love it!!!

[SlainByThePendulum]

I wish I was there! I must have been awesomely awesome!!! =D

[qSt0ned662]

@SlainByThePendulum oh, you're so right! It truly was amazing!

[SlainByThePendulum]

@qSt0ned662

Yes, I can imagine, especially the part when the pendulum falls and "kills Tuomas" sounds great!

Anette really sang this song very well in this concert, she sounds just like on the CD singing with her highest notes, I´m so proud of her.

I can´t wait for the next album!!

[BenioOwns]

@SlainByThePendulum

Agree

[NivaLee]

@SlainByThePendulum

If she didn't cheat on it as on all the other live vid's I've seen on this song -.-

[SlainByThePendulum]

@NivaLee she has never cheated, you can clearly hear that because she doesn't sound that perfect.... I said she sounded similar to the CD versión, not exactly like so.

[ashanti4422]

This song is so amazing, i hear this every day i can´t get enough. Please make a DvD from this great Concert!!

[oamadeife]

everyone cuts before mother & father :-(

[motorade]

YouYube Rules- onlu 10 minutes for movie...

[konked]

I remember one guy who bragged something akin to "we are going to boo that woman off the stage". Well after the concert he was very silent mumbling something irrelevant jaw still hanging open LOL

[EthanR666]

OME theve gotta put this on dvd.......*orgasming*

[JovidzaCar]

every time i watch this video i get chills!!!!SOOOOO GOOD!!!!

[AnetteOlzonForever]

awesome

you rock anette!

[Skeleton24091992]

I still can't belive that I actually was there...

[goodstorylover]

Me too, I actually flew to Finland without having a ticket - and I got there! Pretty amazing show, my heart´s band is Apocalyptica.

[Skeleton24091992]

Where are you from? You must be a real fan of NW! ;D

Did you get a ticket or did you go to the arena without a ticket? I'm just curious... :)

[goodstorylover]

Hi, I am from Prague, Czech Republic, and a mother of a NW fan :o); I myself prefer Apocalyptica (and Finland itself is a great motivation, too), so we both got what we wanted. We did get a ticket before the show - there were some available in the arena. I do not regret the trip at all!

[Skeleton24091992]

Both of you have great attitude! ;P

[goodstorylover]

thanks:o) all the best and many great shows in future

[HerccuPoiroo]

i still can't believe that i was there but SITTING lol

[emil9412]

omg it's so fucking good!! best band in the world =)

[Akoro88]

Epic, just fucking EPIC.

[DDponig]

and those whispering parts were creepy, it was dark and whispers in your ear felt so creepy... this must be my best experience of music so far

[DDponig]

i was down there like... maybe in 10th line and god i remember whole show, i cried like maniac when came the part "save me!" and those papers felt....my eyes were full of tears but luckily i catched few red papers, now they're my precious<3 love nightwish, love anette and tarja :--)

[nightwishfan15]

i can see the camera guy...

[Qabcdefghijklmnop]

This is so epic and out of this world, I would do anything to see Nightwish live.

[Tunttala]

So was I before 19.09.09 day ;D That was so epic! My dream came true at 07:00 :D I never forget that I saw this live from the fron! :D

[Skeleton24091992]

My dream (more than my dreams...) came true at 7:30. Those effects were amazing!

I want to go back there!!! Why do we have to wait so long before the next concert?!

[JovidzaCar]

cuz they have to make more amazing songs :)

[Epica90]

Spectacular!

[ironheaven]

that consert was awesome, it was soooooooooo great. ;D

[Felinestance]

Anette's vibrato is just beautiful, it feels like she's stroking you

[1rn3H]

@Felinestance i heard that theyre not making a dvd out of this gig. i hoped so too, i was there and it was amazing

[vlenorya]

@Felinestance she is stroking...

[EndOfDeceive]

Wow, so many people there... They honour Nightwish by the right way. Sold out concerts are the best way to say "you´re great" to a artist/band.

Oh, how I hate that I live in Germany and not in Finland! I´m wrong here!

[sylkar8]

I feel the same....

[KoLdude42]

man, what I wouldn't give to see this concert\

too bad I live in the USA. really want to see them live

[jennythemusicmaker]

It's alright for you... Nightwish only come to the UK once in a blue moon. Wheras they go round the USA for ages in at least 4 states! But lol I know what you mean.. no hard feelings. :)

[sylkar8]

don't tell me so, I have just moved to UK!!!!! hoping they go often than to Spain!!! anyway, i absolutely love this song. I would have done very bad thing to be there.

[playgroundlove91]

they'll return to the US for the next tour, you'll get your chance in a couple of years! :)

[gabriel6277]

A long tour, isn't it? GJ Annette!

[Tunttala]

Ou jeah! ;D Almost in the fronline!! I sawed this so close and those pyros were so hot! ;D I loved and love still this! Awesome concert and I had best day of my life ;)

[locomotive147]

holly crap how many people were there?

[RockSidi]

Sold out...about 12 000...an awesome gig....Nightwish Rocks!

[RockSidi]

Thanks for this great video and the sound is surprising good as well.This is one of my NW favorites and it sounds awesome.Anette and boys are doing a great job and I bet it was an awesome gig!

[sephsnake]

This concert was just mind blowing!

[HoherLordAkkarin]

did she do that on purpose? i think she never did that before.

this is such a great video, so glad someone filmed it!!!!! thank you so much!
