Nightwish - The Riddler

[SpiritOFPennsylvania]

One of my favorite song!!

[TheRiddlerYouWillSee]

My first Nightwish song. Brings back good times. Even named my account as a lyric.

[MDthornton83]

Great song. Though, this sounds more like an 80s song than a 90s song.

[sassygurl9000]

Well thank god I'm not the only one here who thinks of Riddler from the Batman comics whenever I listen to this song!

[PieniNallekarhu]

-----awesome----<3

моя душа поёт с Тайрой.

[astrolifter]

This song has one of the best choruses I've ever heard.

[karateprincess1]

Tuomas Halopanien is the best composer ever. That guy could write a good song on the worst day of his life :) Brilliant.

[astrolifter]

@karateprincess1 I agree fully, he's awesome and very much under-rated.

[kuriboh400]

@karateprincess1 That he could.

[MissMariula]

Amazing, superb!

[MrSeppo92]

Easily my favourite on Oceanborn! :P I'm serious, has been neglected in vain

[TajemnaTemnota]

Riddler Riddler when is Tarja comming???

[astrolifter]

@TajemnaTemnota I believe she cums out of her eager vagina...

[HimuraCruz]

@TajemnaTemnota When she apologizes for being an egotistical cunt and leaving herself :3

[TajemnaTemnota]

@HimuraCruz So therefore I will wait.

[AchilliesLastStand1]

@HimuraCruz I know your not talking about Tarja

[TajemnaTemnota]

@AchilliesLastStand1 Yes she/he talking about Tarja.

[natalie5424]

@HimuraCruz for falling in love and wanting a solo career fuck that

[heartflowergirl]

I love the chorus, it's so epic! And Tarja's voice makes it much more epic! <3

[brownwolfgirl]

to each is a riddle.

to each riddle an aswer.

but there is no answer to this question..

Why...

Is there a dislike bar...

[147258502]

@brownwolfgirl nothing can exist without an opposite. the whole purpse of the dislike bar is so that the like bar may exist.

[brownwolfgirl]

@147258502 tosha......tosha....

[njubster]

@147258502 thats some quality darkside/lightside wisdom right there

[rmvieira]

First song I've heard from Nightwish back in... I don't know, year 2000? Awesome sounding Tarja, before everyone knew who she and Nightwish were.

[BlindmelonKen]

@jerhinus Batman must be fucking jealous that he doesn't have the most awesome song in Gotham.

[silhofn2]

this is the first nightwish album ive listened and till today for me its their best album

[DreamMarko]

They should beg Tajra to return :(

[MultiBoom666]

14 people have poop in their ears.

[kamusboy]

Epic!

[Sparda797]

All hail the riddler!

[jerhinus]

Batman sent me here.!!

[CanalTal]

I like this song but I wish they put less guitar distortion and more of the Goddess voice

[MordaFKubeu]

This is a beautiful song !!! oh my god !!! :)

[boboletzu]

I have to tell yu something:|.My parents were listening to nightiwsh since I was only a fetus, in my mother's tummy.This song is stuck in my mind since always.I waqs born with this song in my head.I searched for it years.when i found it I was ":O".You may not belive me, but this is the truth.Weird.

[Laevateinn102]

@boboletzu I believe you, according to my parents I used to respond to ELO music in my mother's womb.

[boboletzu]

@Laevateinn102 Yes, but not all the people in the world can belive me...This is something very weird.I saw some documentary movies about this, and now I experienced on myself.Very nice :D

[pROXYHOX]

@boboletzu How old are you exactly? You must be pretty damn young. :D Good taste.

[boboletzu]

@pROXYHOX I am 13 years old :D

[pROXYHOX]

@boboletzu That is awesome bro keep it up! I've been listening to Nightwish since their very first album ever.. I was 9 years old at the time. Rock On! \m/

[boboletzu]

@pROXYHOX Means that you are big now.How old are you ? P.S :sorry my english, I am only 13 years old, and I am not from UK or USA...

[pROXYHOX]

@boboletzu No need to apologize that implies you did something wrong, and you didn't. I'll be 22 in August.

[Lossarnach23]

@boboletzu hey if that really works it's pretty cool!! I'll have to try this when I'm having a baby to make sure my child will develop a good taste in music ... i'll hedge my bets and go for wishmaster ;)

[boboletzu]

@Lossarnach23 it's very hard, but you will see if your baby likes it, by his movement in tummy.If he doesn't like , he will move fast, and shoot the wall of the tummy, and if he likes, he won;t move :).Good luck !:)

[heartflowergirl]

@boboletzu Wow, that's really amazing, to be born with a Nightwish-song in your head! :D It only confirms that Nightwish is the greatest band ever! :D

[boboletzu]

@heartflowergirl yu are completely right :)

[eeiness]

"For nature hates virginity

I wish to be touched

Not by the hands of where's and why's

But by the Oceans' minds... "

Beautiful <3

[migueldarksmy]

nightwish no brilla sin tarja sin ella estan inkompletos¡¡¡ Olzon no basta no le llega ni a los talones a la reyna zolo es un intento de cantante

[DragonXShadowGirl]

bellissima *_*

[MrHellsservant]

new nightwish without her just sucks

[FlorianHumanistic]

@MrHellsservant

Well I don't think they suck. They just became some average kind of Symphonic Metal Band. There are many of them. It's a pity, because according to their instrumental skills, they are great. But it is a different thing then they used to do. And that was what the people liked.

Thank God (or better: Thank Tarja) she goes on making this kind of music.

Nightwish isn't bad. But I love Tarja's music.

[HomuncuIus]

Pure euphoria

[MrSteele92]

whoa

[Tazzarinaa]

give us tarja back in nightwish and we'll give you justin bieber & the rest of shit pop

[CanalTal]

@Tazzarinaa Are you talking to God?

[Tazzarinaa]

@CanalTal talking to the scarecrow nex.... hey where did he go

[jrdudedj]

I play Zelda with this shit cranked to the max!!!

[PrincessLucia10]

@jrdudedj Zelda, and Fire Emblem. It just ends up epic beyond belief.

[bebegratarja]

me muero!!!!!!!!!!!!! q vozzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!

[Kamakawiwo1]

This song is sooooo fantastic!

[DrCrabfish]

@Kamakawiwo1 idd epic song

[WishmasterTheDark]

[Me:] Which Nightwish is better, old or new one?

[The Riddler:] Nightwish rocks, popwish sucks!

[musikmood]

@WishmasterTheDark WTF? I cant understand your comment

any way, this "old fans" jajajaja with 23 years old said that the true nightwish is with Tarja, and other fans said that nightwsh is oceanborn, they changed in centurychild, but if your really listen nightwish since angels fall first, you know that nightwish never made a similar album and style

SO.. WHAT THE FUCK IS NIGHTWISH?

FOR ME : 1997-2002 more metal 2004-2007 Hans Zimmer with metal

but who caress, is good music.

[WishmasterTheDark]

@musikmood

Hahahaahahaa, poser... hey you, poser. Get the fuck out of here you wannabe Nighwish emo-gay fan!!!

[musikmood]

@WishmasterTheDark mmm.. is the only that you have to say? I always said this, the NEW nightwish fans are very idiots, there is not sense when all you talk about music maybe cuz all you have 23 years old XD you thing that the music that you hear make you important who are you to talk about music if you only know the Once album?

jajajajajjajajajajajjajajajjaj­jajajajajajajajjajajajajajajaj­ajajjajajaja

who is the poser here??

heey wishmasterTHEdarkid kill yourself

[WishmasterTheDark]

@musikmood

I don't know about you but I like "Angels Fall First", "Oceanborn", "Wishmaster", "Century Child" and "Once" Symphonic Metal albums.

[musikmood]

@WishmasterTheDark

I like nw cuz I like the folk stuffs, nightwish dont have too much but when they play folk parts they are great.

and when I tried to understand the DPP I found that was a kind of copy of Hans Zimmer and a few folks parts but wait, everyone is talking about the vocalist and the big change, but who is talking about music?

just me?

say wht you want but Once and DPP is the same, we are talking about music, arent you?

so.nightwish was a great journey for you but I keep on the trip

[oceanodefuego1]

Cuando Tarja hacía gala de su poderosa voz de soprano dramática.

[bebegratarja]

@oceanodefuego1 Es perfectaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!

[EliDeli21]

Nature hates virginty

[fartnuber]

concrete2man, i cryed when i read ur comment because its true, live and let die.

[GreeceOTOT]

oceanborn was the first Nightwish album i bought, it's amazing and this will always be one of my favorite songs of all time

[thefelinefanatic]

This song makes me and my best friend irish dance at the bus stop. People stare at us like we're morons, but wtf :)

[sweetpetite54]

I just wish she hadn't been so hard to understand. There's no question she has a great voice, but I find it hard to make out what she's saying.

[mast0rrrchief]

hmmm is tarja back ? sry if i sound dumb but havent listened nightwish lately

[Cynderella11]

@mast0rrrchief no she's not back :( i wish.. just one of their older albums that is not as popular as the others... but just as great. 

[zwiastun78]

That iss grates. Taria back to the Nightwish

[xBellatrixLestrangex]

This is the first time I've heard this song...I'm blown away =)

[Concrete2Man]

What's the use to be born and then die?

To listen to Nightwish while you're alive...

[HellOwnerz]

@Concrete2Man

But old Nightwish, when Tarja was in it. New Nightwish sucks.

[Nensak]

@Concrete2Man rofl if thats what you think about the life so you better suicide now ^^

[brownwolfgirl]

@Nensak whats that sposed to mean!? ru saying nightwish is bad!!!*growls*

[iw09yahim]

@Concrete2Man ... Justin bieber baby x 1000000000 WTF?

[Concrete2Man]

About "Oceanborn is definitely a gift to humanity": Nightwish is the gift to all universe! And, by the way, i first liked the song and then listened to it, cuz i expected something like this... THIS IS INFINITELY DIVINE!!! THIS IS POETRY!!! And about the reason of living... Nightwish is enough for me.

[KrazyKae96]

I cannot believe the amount of total crap filling the comments. Take your pitiful arguments elsewhere please.

[DevinTClark]

Fantastic.

[CodyRune]

I really want to learn how to play this song:(

[EricRiatto]

@zephranna01 " this guy thinks nightwish and their millions of fans [...] are shit "

Where did you see that? It's not written anywhere. He just mentionned that the band was as good as the singer, and that there was other singer just as talented as Tarja (or even more according to him and some specialized musicians).

He talked about a letter wrote by the band to the singer, which probably means he also is one of their fans.

So you are the troll here. Don't be silly and please stop spoiling.

[Ethaninja]

Haha, good old YouTube. Where people have a bitch about the smallest things.

[ein987]

@Ethaninja I know right xD

such silly people, why can't we just all be friends?

[Asinity1984]

@Ethaninja Didn't you know? YouTube makes everyone an expert with logical arguments and opinions.

*snicker*

[SilverSteam1]

@Asinity1984 Please, this is not the place, nor the time to argue. if you want to argue message the person. It's simple like that

[Pestinha92]

@SilverSteam1

Yea, but someone people are stupid to think that mensaging in private is the same thing as "loosing" as no one would agree with them, so they do in private. Stupidity at its best, or worst, it depends.

[Asinity1984]

@Pestinha92 I know you were piggy-back-attacking me through SilverSteam1's comment, but I am having trouble figuring out what you were trying to say. I never was very good at word jumbles.

[Pestinha92]

@Asinity1984

Actually I was talking to people in general, I only payed attention to his comment. To be more specific, some people thinking that sending PM is a sign of weakness or uncertain and troll them for that.

[Asinity1984]

@SilverSteam1 Get off your high-horse muffin. I was not arguing, the person I replied to stated that Youtube is where people gather to bitch about little issues, I was agreeing with him and stating that EVERYONE and their dog has an expert-opinion even though they have absolutely no idea what is being discussed.

Truth be told, you just proved my point. Thanks!

[SilverSteam1]

@Asinity1984 Muffin? I'm not sure if that was supposed to be an insult or if you're hungry but ok and Unfortunately my dog can give no expertise advice though it would be cool if I could tell people that~ And I do very well agree that a lot of people use you tube as there problem solving place. And It gets annoying. I rarely ever post..I just dislike fighting..And I took your comment as an argument. I apologize.. Please Have a nice day~

[FinnMetal4Life]

@Asinity1984 That made me laugh. Thank you.

[EricRiatto]

@zephranna01 Hum, you are the troll here in fact.

He didn't say anything against Tarja or Nightwish, but just answered a question. Then you came and trolled about this and that. Read it again dude.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Once again, you're talking about fame. And no, Nathalie Dessay isn't known only by french people. Stop talking shit, and do the fucking research, retard.

Who the fuck cares about that? People that care about music. Which means not you, for sure.

Next time you wank yourself, hide and keep quiet.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Oh my fucking god.

Nathalie Dessay is nobody?! Hahahaha!!!! Not even capable of doing some research. You really are not in music dude. You will soon tell me that your baker is more famous than Pavarotti.

Those "millions" of fanboys are just like you : stupid and ignorant teenagers.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos actually I did some researh and every where I looked said that they were nobody, then I looked them up on youtube and it made me want to kill myself, If you like them than you don't know anythin about music

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Nice argument.

Nathalie Dessay is way better than Tarja, but I guess you don't listen to music enough to have the ears to recognize that kind of things. Also, you're a fanboy, and you're proving it.

[TearisShatteredMoon]

@Erkyos I disagree on better then tarja, I would so far as to say different.

However all these people making such stupid statements based on an artists country are just bigots and not worth your time.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Do some research. Listen to Nathalie Dessay or Maria Callas.

About the one I know, they're still student, you wouldn't know them nor be able to listen to them, and I prefer not to give their name on the internet. Stil, check for one of them : myspace --> /forlornminstrels

It's not a lot, but even though she's a little forcing on the highest note, which is a "contre mi" (dunno the english for that). And it's been recorded in my room. And she's 20, and not the best.

[MrPwnageism]

the new nightwish songs are also good as the old ones was aswell..

But the new ones miss the little thing Tarja gave them, beauty..

im not saying the new songs are bad, they are good and catchy and all that, but it just misses that little spark..

Thumbs up if your agree !

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 "If you think they are so great then I would have heard about them".

1) You know every good musician in the world? So far, you proved me you only know shit. 2) I live in france, you live in australia, and you think you would have heard of them? Hi, dickhead?

3) Millions of people are fanboys/girls of Justin Bieber, so fame is not a good point. And you are nothing but a stupid fanboy that know anything about music and thinks that the only proof of talent is fame.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos french pussy... we Americans saved your ass in both wars, and don't ever mention justin bieber on a song like this again.

[Erkyos]

@hellspawn435 "We american saved your ass in both wars"

Haha? So you were in Normandy in 1944? No. You're just a stupid faggot.

I'd also tell you that without France, the U.S.A would probably be owned by England. So let's say we're even, dumbass.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos Fuck England...we had it handled, and were not even because I had family in both wars.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos BTTW we were in Normandy too you dumbass... Omaha Beach to be exact so do your freakin reseach before you start saying shit

[Erkyos]

@hellspawn435 OMFG. I know american army was in normandy in 1944. I was talking about you, dickhead. Stop saying "we" you faggot.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos Ok fair enoungh ass wipe, but you should also stop using "we"...and be more creative with your freakiin insults because all they make me do is laugh even harder at the french.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos The french are sawed off sissies who eat snails and slugs and cheese that smells like feet. Utter cowards who force their own childern to drink wine, they gibber like baboons even when you try to speak to them in their own wimpy language!

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Nothing to do with jealousy, but I understand your lack of knowledge and arguments.

You're quite funny, judging people's talent based on their fame. In fact, you don't even know if "nobody knows" those great opera singer that are so better than her. You don't know them, so nobody does. You're not stupid, you're stupidity itself.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 About the long tours and pressure etc... They exactly know what it's like. It's even worse, since they sing opera, and the atmosphere is quite tensed. So one more time, you know shit, so you talk shit.

Being a better singer doesn't male you more popular, for sure. But who cares? That wasn't the fucking point.

About the beauty, charisma, sex appeal and nice moves. You say Tarja would kick their arse, but you didn't even see them!?!?

You're not a fanboy? Tell my ass, I'm busy.

[hellspawn435]

@Erkyos you busy turning and running like the french coward you are?

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 And i'm not criticizing her, I'm telling facts that where in the letter of the band, and facts that are absolutely simple for someone who knows a little about music.

When I was studying music at university, there was 9 or 10 female singers (classical), and 4 of them were ways better than Tarja, even though she's good (and absolutely so much very good to you).

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 1) You do not know me nor anything that I do.

2) Tarja is OK. A lot of singers a a lot better, even though they don't sing that kind of music.

3) She does nothing more than other singers : she sings, she moves along, she talks to the crowd.

4) It's not Night Wish, but Nightwish.

5) No, they didn't.

6) Please stop being a stubborn fanboy.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Or maybe not. You say I don't realise, but I do know what it's like to be on stage. You say it's more difficult as a "front person", but you're wrong. It's just different.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 Oh my god... She had to work harder because they were watching her? Excuse me, I thought they were equal because in my head, they were musician, and she was a singer, which is the same in my ears.

And if you talk about scene play, she didn't "had" to work harder. And everyone had a great scene play.

THEY had to work harder, because they composed. Hietala also had/has to work harder, because he sings while playing.

[Erkyos]

@zephranna01 She more than made up for this on stage? Just like the others.

[GenjuDW]

@zephranna01 She was paid significantly less than the rest of the band and wanted what she considered her fair share. People seem to consider this being greedy. But, she was a bit irresponsible with band rehearsal attendance also.

[myervillee]

@GenjuDW you would be a bit irresponsible with band rehearsal attendance if you weren't being treated fair and as a equal member in your band. i would of left too. i say every member gets a equal cut. she wasn't being greedy the members who weren't dividing the profits equally were 

[Elemarth]

I love Tarja, too, but I think it's about time we all get over that and stop mentioning it on every Nightwish video... It's not as if Nightwish is worthless without her, and it's not as if she's stopped singing without them.

[makaronia77]

@Elemarth Maybe they are just a bit worthless without her...try to listen to this song sung by Annete Olson...I am not sure if I could finish listening in that case...

They are not really worthless NOW..it's just the fact they they were SO FUCKING GREAT WITH HER...That's the problem...

[bloodyrockfire]

I so love this band for the amazing music they make but I so hate them for disposing of Tarja,damn! wtf was in their heads?!I presume she got extremely mad once she recieved that open letter

[Erkyos]

@bloodyrockfire She was to arrogant and greedy.

[GothicGirl982]

love her voice

[TheDanilo3634]

I miss Tarja.... :-(

[nightwisher33]

@MrBlutos its a special-limited edition



[odracir1986]

Her singing-style it's a kind of 'opera/metal/soprano singer and this voice it's hard to get. Tarja is SO MUCH BETTER THAN ANETTE and nobody can deny that.

[bloodyrockfire]

@odracir1986 I definitely agree,but what I want to know is why did they just get rid of her like this;open letter give me a break;they were probably too shy to confrunt her directly face to face;I 'm intending to judge or anything but dissmissing Tarja was a huge mistake in my opinion

[felixnistor]

Excelent



[SpaceNinja77]

terrible she ruined the song

[SpiritOfWanderlust]

@SpaceNinja77 Heh. It's cute how he keeps trying even when nobody's obviously biting. Gotta give the little troll doll points for effort. Well, not so much effort as persistance...

[SpaceNinja77]

@SpiritOfWanderlust your cute ;)

@SpaceNinja77 Her singing-style it's a kind of 'opera/metal/s
