The Poet and The Pendulum

[chebordelloraga]

fucking amazing

[r4xNW]

The best song EVER!!!

[antenna01]

I am french so I will translate if you want...

"Thefreezingmoon" says "It is not anette who sings the beginning"

Indeed, it's not Anette, it's a soprano boy...

Anyway, it's an awesome song!!

[luvofthefather]

i don't know french

[Dnightbird]

FreezingMoon said Annette isn't singing the intro (+1). michou2389 seems to think the opposite (-1). Hey, why don't you know french ? hehe...

Anyway... Amazing song.

NIGHTWISH ROXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX­XXXXXX!

[TheFreezingMoon]

c'est pas anette qui chante l'intro..

[chachou07nemesis]

moi je prefere nightwish maintenant!

[michou2389]

je prefere pas sa voix live..vraiment pas... a vrai-dire je n'aime pas trop torp sa voix en général, mais je doit avouer qu'au tout debut de cette chanson là ( l'intro) la voix est vraiment belle... et MERDE cette toune es malade!!!!!!!!!!!! sinon je n'aime pas plus sa voix que ca . mais esti ke sa doit etre malade live

[EjisNeos]

C'est marrant, mais je trouve que la voix d'annette est meilleure en live ! Puis la justesse est pas mal, surtout dans cette agitation.

Par contre, comment peut-on jouer du clavier dans cette position ?! Le pied s'est cassé ?

[tbeltran]

I loved it! Tuomas and the band did a great job with annete!! cool!

[Hoodalf]

The best song after Finlandia:D

[DarkAndiel]

i Say...say NO to Anette haters....she is fantastic, Tarja is gone...people need to accept that. Altough Tarja is fantastic and i miss her from nightwish i cant imagine her singing this song

[AshiValkoinen]

Agreed.

[humanslushi]

Yep!

[maikato89]

YESSS!!!

[lewbro123]

wow, better on cd lol maybe the quality of the vid but hey, nightwish with annette...ten times better than tarja...in her own right. tarja was good at what she did, cant really compare the two different girls to each other.

either way nightwish were right to lose tarja, annette all the way \m/

[shhzsher]

agreed

[runescapefreak01]

agree!

[normantteri]

DPP is absolutely the best album -ever! love anette <3

[JRudess84]

A masterpiece of orchestration as The Poet and The Pendulum is really wasted for the Annette's voice! Tarja gave its a majestic symphony stamp! Tarja forever!

Sorry for my bad english!

[BigDiff7]

though i prefer anette to targa, i really think this would be her song, opera-style would be better suited for poet and the pendulum

[nintendude7cubed]

why does every one clap retardedly at the slow parts...

DPP is the best album ever

[Micidami]

Selåsu ompee altö va Ghost Love Score vulpä vocalistämppata... Tarja 4ever!

[Stephiee93]

Great song!<3

[EpicOfDay]

This song alone justifies the purchase of DPP. Beautiful, epic.

Unfortunate that it's so effing long, nobody can post a full version of it ;)

[domogunner]

It is so good that I actually first thought it was playback :D

Thought in the new nightwish album many things come as playback.I forgive that.

Band of hundred men would be too much for anyone :D

[SilverAsakura]

d@mn... this rules!!! :D

nightwish is better than ever.

[silverhand17]

still Ghost Love Score is the best work of Tuomas in my eyes, and ears. And it's not about vocals. It's about music, it's more various, more powerful.

This song isn't bad. But I prefer GLS.

BTW in the slow parts of the song Annette's vocals in fact reminds me Sharon from WT

[wehonika]

Najpiękniejsza piosenka na świecie! jest w niej tyle dobra i zla. po prostu rzeczywistość! pięknie Nightwish!

[InsAInCroManiaCk]

no fair man, i really want to go to that concert! >:[

well i might go to the one in november!

woo

[TheAru]

Ohh yeah i hope to see this at Slims in San Francisco when i go to see then live on November 2nd

[twinrush]

at first i didnt like anette when i heard amaranth she just sounded squeky pop singer but after hearing dpp although she dosent sound great on every song she is realy good on canidace of her last breath (sorry about spelling) but 7 days to the wolfs and bye bye sound far better when her voice is with marcos. i think it removes her high pop like tones

[triviumislife]

Just awesome.

Can't wait till they come to Finland.

[rvcave]

she sounds even more amazing live.tarja who?

[lulalely]

why do they clap with their hands on the pacific?

[suffeli72]

Can´t wait to see them in December and I just love Anette!

[Trajady]

this show was in fucking israel 06/10/07 and i was in that fucking show :D that show was soo rocking!!! and the crowd was crazy XD just great band!!!

[onceIhadadream]

Oh,only I walk Alone is better than the 13 songs from Dark PATHETIC Play,

poor people you're!!

[lulalely]

haha, get a life, YOU are the poor one, opfer!

[Spiria]

I must call you poor...I walk alone...hahaha,yeah,I guess for you even "Stars are blind" kicks ass.You make me pity your stupidity to compare a metal band with a pop singer.

[Hannibal777]

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA fanatics... man you should buy yourself a new set of ears my friend!!!!

[AlmightyDM]

Dsrk phathetic play, real original...

[gusghost]

we`re poor just because we don´t share your opinion? just because we like anette and you don´t? just because you´re a Tarja fan ONLY? Don´t get me wrong, I like her new song, but NW still rocks to me..doesn´t make me "poor". It makes you narrow-minded.

[Kittylord]

Wow.. as many have already commented- the audio quality isn't that hot, but the performance still sounds good! I would think Pendulum would be a bitch to do live due to all the sequenced orchestral tracks, but they did it nicely!

I'm going to see Nightwish in about a week and a half. High hopes after seeing this vid!

[TurmionLilja]

Wow, this was amazingly beautiful in spite of the low quality of the video. The song is pure epic, but I was a bit doubtful how it'll work on stage. Seems to work fine. Looking forward to seeing them in December...

[marlenesascha]

I LOVE HER VOICE

[infamenemo]

Simply Amazing!

[sexyboy18mer]

yeah, anette is not a bitch like tarja...anette is just stupid and a bad singer :D, nightwish is dead for now on.

[Vildenos]

You fail n000b

[EmppuRocks]

2:08... Emppu... "Whatcha doing, old bud? ^_^"

The end.... I love Jukka! ^_______^

Excellent performance... I want to see them live so badly!

[Seralpha15]

Dont hang after tarja! I loved her Voice, but this is the new era and now its over. I love DPP!

[DeepBlackSea]

agree :P

[enomiyashigeki]

I love Anette and I love this song too! I think this song is one of the best on the new album! ^^

[sylkar8]

no puedo esperar a escuchar esta canción en directo, me ha ido absorviendo hasta tenerla totalmente rallada... me encanta!! ya ha superado a clásicos que tenía como intocables de su altar, una de las mejores canciones de su discografía, es grandiosa, apoteósica, embriagadora e hipnotizadora... tuomas genio!

[Antimatter3D]

"All the debutantes in Houston, baby, couldn't hold a candle to you." See you in Houston, Nightwish!

[joenightwish113]

yes you're right THIS IS THE BEST SONG OF NIGHTWISH EVER.... it's supreme it's magical... IT AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS BETTER THAN GHOST LOVE SCORE AND THAT'S TOO MUCH

[TheBlackHalo9]

fuck all the dieheart tarja fans! Jesus people ever heard of expanding your freaking horizons!!!! I didnt like her at first either but if you didnt notice Anette's not a bitch like Tarja is and if you want tarja so much go and gobble up her "solo" project which is pretty crappy compared to this

[Allard88]

Well, who cares if she's a bitch or not

The music is what people listen to, not the singer's personality.

[TheBlackHalo9]

yes but sometimes you can tell when the singer is just being plain..."Professional" i guess I want to say. And the singer reflects the band and people DO care when she cancels sold out shows because theyre listening to the music aren't they?

[Muppetmad2]

Ha! Listen to The Reign, and you will realise that the only song that comes ANYWHERE near to that is Poet & the Pendulum.

[TheBlackHalo9]

the reign isnt that amazing actually...bored me woulda been better instrumental

[harrycuack]

dios....me erizo los pelos....

amo este tema con todo mi poder

[Darkmaster250]

This is may'be the best Nightwish song ever, I love it, and Anette did a great job

[SatApep]

Have mercy-My poor ears. That bitch cant sing. I give up on the new Nightwish. Seriously...Yikes.

[blajdzik]

Annette doesn't hipnotise me!!! Only Tarja can do that!!! :(

[Mariska4eva]

YAYS! Poet and the pendulum Rocks!! Just as much as Ghost Love Score!! Tuomas knows what he's doing!

[fogopa]

Thank you very much for this glimpse of live power!:D Great!!!

[lappurallikuski]

The Poet And The Pendulum is even better than Ghost Love score

[DrMorbid]

No way.

[oniric85]

I really miss Tarya but Annette is doing very good. Not an easy live song.

[blackirises]

oh my god, they look like they're going to be so amazing live! I can't wait to see them this nov! Annett is amazing. it took a while for me to get used to her, but now I'm really glad she's in the band. Tarja was amazing, and has a really unique voice, but I don't think she was as good live as she was recorded, and I've heard that Annett is even better live than on the album, which is AMAZING!

[jocopi]

Anette AHAZA! ;)

[haaveellinen]

Qrva jó,sőt kibaszott jó ez a szám!Merha jól énekel a kisfiú benne,csak ez a ribanc ne lenne!Remélem hamar eltűnik a búsba:)

[WhatIOnceWas]

Nightwish and Anette blended perfectly. And only in 3 shows' time. That's something that very, very rarely happens, so I think all we can do is love them for that. Poet is a monumental song, and so is Anette's work on it. Awesome.

[Lebossu81]

omg so awesome !!!!!

[LifeExit]

Was this the first song they performed in the show? That would rock!

[lyannmetal]

nightwish is Awesome but this trak is amazing!!!

[Oceanwhisperer]

THIS SONG IS TOTALLY AWSOME!

[janr61]

This is the best song from the new album, dark passion play, Anette sings great, when you can sing this song live then you are one of the best, Anette is one of the best

[AEROSAKOS]

she is one of the best but not the best. Tarja was THE BEST. But anyway this a new era for nightwish......

[nahukas]

Thanks!!! I don't really like how anette sings but I like Nightwish.

[ChasingTheGhost]

Thanks for this.
