@tinmanluver35 That's because DPP wasnt written for Anettes voice. It's like putting Celine Dion to sing Nessun Dorma. She had to use belting techniques which were difficult. Thats why she wasnt good live, but I believe she will do great with Imaginaerum songs live, since they are written for her voice.
@tinmanluver35 That's the thing. No one is as good live as they are on studio album. Annette is in my opinion, horrible live, but that is why we all loved Tarja so much. She sounded almost as good live as she did on studio quality.
I just noticed something: the finnish english accent is similar to irish... is that a coincidence or are there any linguistic similarities between irish and finnish? I know irish is celtic and finnish is fino-ugric which would imply no similarity at all, and yet I think they're accents are similar; so... anybody that knows this stuff out there? please tell me; thank you in advance
Nah there is no linguistic similarity between the two. As you already said, Finnish is a finno-ugric language and those are very different from indo-germanic languages such as Irish (which is of Celtic origin and therefore belongs to those). Also, I can't hear a similarity in the accents, but maybe that's just me...
I'm sorry, but she does not look like a metal singer. She looks like a housewife from the 80s or something. I mean, is that a *scrunchy* in her hair?? REALLY?? I'm not hating on Anette or anything, just wondering what was going through her head when she chose this outfit.... yeesh...
It doesn't matter how she's dressed! What matters is that she CAN SING! I guess many of you not agree, but I DON'T CARE! Anette is NOT Tarja and she's NOT like Tarja, but that doesn't make her worse! Besides, if Anette was just like Tarja, there wouldn't be anything special about Tarja anyway! Anette doesn't have to PROOF anything! For me, she doesn't have to be like Tarja before she can be accepted! Anette is good in her OWN way! I believe in NW and the choice they made when they chose Anette!
It doesn't matter that Anette is blonde or not - it's the fact she dresses like Hannah Montana. She doesn't look the part at all. She needs to dress like Tarja to fit into nightwish - black leather, dark heavy stuff. That green blouse is just shit.

No offense to Marco, but he sometimes scares me, like in the Wish I Had an Angel video, he looked freaky, but who gives a damn about looks, he's awesome.
blonde hair doesn't suit Annette. She looks more metalic with black hair. Now she looks like popsinger at first sight.
I love marco too, he's my king of metal! How unfair that there are usually only annette and thuomas who are interviewed, and marco is often left behind
So Marco and Emppu must look like pop musicians at first sight too. Maybe Jukka because he looks dirty blond at times.
She's NATURALLY blond. Honestly, there are a big group of metalheads who frown upon dying your hair, and there are plenty of blond metalheads out there too. I absolutely fail to see the connection between pop and blonds.
I fail to see the connection between pop and blonds. Yeah, lots of pop singers are articificially blond., Anette is a natural blond, as are many other metalheads. Many metalheads frown upon hair dying anyways!
Anette is a NATURAL blond. Many metalheads frown upon hair dying, and in Scandinavia (counting Finland for the sake of ease), you'll find plenty of blond metal musicians.
If blondness is truly a blight to metal, Tarot should GTFO because four out of five of their members seem to be natural blonds.
Its her natural hair colour .. and since when the fuck did hair colour mean anything? im a metal head and im blond so does that mame me a pop fan all of a sudden? no it fucking dosn't
