  • tarja volta!!!! te amo!

  • You give love a bad name all the way!

  • needs more volume

  • anyone notice DragonForce took the rythm of the chorus for 'Strike of the Ninja'?

  • Where were you last Nightwish...?

  • Nightwish And Bon Jovi are very nice ;)

  • Well, i was lucky to hear her sing this live. She ended the song with livin on a prayer.

  • @TheWatchtower24

    No, it was only on a single of wish I had an angel. It was on the single track, it had this, Wish I had An Angel and one other song that currently escapes me.

  • @Zyphonia There were "Wish I Had An Angel", "Where Were You Last Night", orchestral version of "Ghost Love Score" and demo version of "Wish I Had An Angel" on the single of "Wish I Had An Angel" :)

  • ähm Tarja,where were you last night ? >.<

  • @YoumiChasu ahhh sweet irony...

  • is this on any album? can't find it

  • Nice Song.

  • Also sounds like the full ending of Slam dunk. =)

  • Love this cover. All the same, I wish those who hate Annette for being "pop" would take a look at this. Not so different, and still awesome.

  • Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name

  • i dont see any bon jovi in here :/

  • Comment removed

  • @Woffser Iam sorry but you must be deaf

  • They covered Ankie Bagger's song! I love this song,and hearing them cover this makes me love Nightwish even more! =) Ich liebe dich Nightwish!

  • It sounds like Heaven is a place on earth to me !!

  • The beginning sounds very simmilar to the intro to Kinslayer by NIghtwish. I know they are different, but if you listen closely, the rhythm and pitch of notes are very close.

  • Yes it sounds like Bon Jovi which was probably unintentional, and it also sounds like "White Death" by Sabaton which they intentionally borrowed from "Where Were You Last Night" "You're in the sniper's sight! The first kill tonight! Time to die!"

  • i think this sounds like "Heaven is a place on earth" ,song of Belinda Carlisle

  • the best song!!!

  • Did anybody see the video/concert where Tarja added some lyrics from "Living on a Prayer" and another song to this song? That was NICE!!!

  • Whuch album was this on? I've never heard it before :/

  • Nightwish kicks ass! I love the Finnish, great singers, great music, great culture.

    Love the language

  • @manacaster me too!! :)

  • i love this tune

  • lol, I spent like 30min trying to think of the song the beat of this reminded me of. Then I thought 'Oh yeah, maybe it's a cover.' Dammit Nightwish.

    Just when I thought they couldn't be more awesome. At some point they totally need to cover a Michael Jackson song though. It would be all kinds of amazing.

  • allways on top good job nightwish

  • Comment removed

  • I've heard that at Tarja's concert in São Paulo.

  • I like the old Nightwish and the new Nightwish...No, annette doesn't sound as good as Tarja, but come on...Amaranth and Escapist are still some of the best tracks I have ever heard.

  • I would suggest to these Tarja vs. Anette fighters to go make a discussion forum of your own AND GO FIGHT THERE! Let us just listen to music in peace!

  • Hating the current vocalist isn't helpful because no one in the band gives a d*mn for your mind. They are not asking Tarja back and they must certainly be out of their minds to give up on Anette. You're not helping - you're hatin' and haters are creatures I don't understand... Are they humans or just stupid apes? They seem apish to me though. So basically stick your hates to your backbones and go climb a tree. May be you could see your beloved Tarja from up there continuing her carrier alone.

  • @SundownWarrior - well put...

  • You know Nightwish is an awesome band when they take lyrics that could be found in any pop song, and make it badass. And damn, is it catchy :D

  • an half way between Heaven is a place on earth and Living on a prayer XD, yet I still love that fuckin band!

  • 24 People got lost that last night >.>

  • The band I loved so much died at those october evening 2005.. There will _never_ be Nightwish without Tarja. I'm still little happy I saw their last concert in Finland.

  • @sinaputkiacc Tarja is now a Solo singer u know? -_-;

  • @G0th4ki Yes I know. I live in Finland so I have had a good opportunity to follow NWs and Tarjas careers. Still I like to say the old NW was something... Godlike.. And the new one is more commercial rub.. music.

    I agree Tuomas is incredible song maker but without Tarja NW will never be as good as they would have been.

  • It's a great thing that nightwish continues to do good music, with or without Tarja, and don't get me wrong - I like Tarja, but it's still nightwish without her, and her things are good as well. I hope they will release something new soon :-). Until then, you can try listening to:

    Capricia - Recline in the Fire or

    Capricia - Melodic Scream

    Might like it too ;-)

  • I think this is one of the best song of Nightwish. I love singing this.

  • anybody that puts bush jr.and bill clinton in the same sentence has know fucking clue about poilitics.their big differeance in core beliefs.you might know more than sarah paline but thats up for grabs lol.

  • I would agree with your sentnce on the extent that someone shoudl not cosndier them the same. What I said is that I like none of them. I never said they haev the same way of leading the country. But dont worry I understand how humans think. You said that Buss left your coutnry in debt while clinton created jobs. That is the only thing peopel care about nowadays. Money. To be secure proffesionally and economically. So as long as gov creates job for them and their offsprings, then gov is good.

  • i love this song...it's just like bon jovi- living in a prayer

  • Is it even possible to click on a Nightwish video without seeing the talkig about Anette and Tarja?

  • @MrNorthernWingz I think it's absolutely impossible these days. In my opinion people are unable to understand reality. :-( NightWish forever!

  • @MrNorthernWingz Can the sun rise from the west?.........

  • @evermetal2 If it's the sun of another planet, or an alternate Earth, then maybe.

  • @MrNorthernWingz Probably not. :(

  • @MrNorthernWingz Most likely, and unfortunately not... I've started to feel like there's no point in reading any comments on Nightwish videos 'cause there's nothing else there.. :( But they're a brilliant band & can't wait for the new album :)

  • @MrNorthernWingz Search the depths of Youtube for Nightwish's earliest work.... No wait, even than you'll see that petty debate.

  • @MrNorthernWingz no, its because... tarja rulez XD

  • @MrNorthernWingz Lol I don't think so ahaha.

  • Nice, a!

  • Shot through the heart

    And you're to blame

    You give love a bad... ops, sorry! ^^

    Anyway... GREAT SONG! \m/

  • OMG why does this song remind me of ABBA??? I love love love nightwish but this sounds like a pop song with some more guitars O.O don't get it wrong, there is nothing like a bad nightwish song but still......??

  • @ilovemileyandhannahm Haha I thinks that's because it's a cover of a Swedish popsong ^^

  • Amazing song by an amazing band.

  • Any one think this sounds like that Bon Jovi song, You give love a bad name?

  • @Mitsukaoru That's because they used the tune from the Ankie Bagger's song, which this is a cover of.

  • @Mitsukaoru

    yeah)

    first time i thought tarja was singning 'you give love a bad name' cover)

  • @Mitsukaoru yeah i thought the same thing when i heard the original.

  • @Mitsukaoru You're right! I totally hear it

  • @Mitsukaoru A little bit, yes.

  • @Mitsukaoru It actually sounds like a song written ten years before You Give Love A Bad Name. Probably because it's a cover of that song o.O

  • @Mitsukaoru I was thinking exactly that before I read your comment. Seems a little odd, eh?

  • @Mitsukaoru Isn't it a cover?

  • @VirtuosoOfGuitar TO me it sounds like a song by Bon Jovi- You Give Lova a Bad Name...

  • @VirtuosoOfGuitar no clue, could be, who knows ...

  • @Mitsukaoru Sounds like classic Bon Jovi style, but Tarja Turunen > Jon Bon Jovi.

  • @Mitsukaoru yes, you are right, but both songs are great

  • @Mitsukaoru I would say Bonnie Tyler - If You Were A Woman :)

  • @Mitsukaoru Actually the first thing I thought of when I heard the opening was Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven is a Place on Earth"

  • @kcrustemeier me too, but listen to Elvenking's Cover of Heaven is a Place on Earth. It's fucking EPIC

  • @Mitsukaoru It sounds like that song because Bon Jovi "borrowed" it from the original Ankie Bagger song, of which this is a cover of.

  • @Mitsukaoru

    Or living on a prayer.

    In a concert in Italy, Tarja sing this song united with living on a prayer. Sorry for my english

  • @SoulOfTheOcean86

    yes, she mixes it with 'livin on a prayer' and 'heaven is a place of earth'

  • @thunderboltification i can hear "heaven is a place on earth" but not livin on a prayer oO

  • @topanteon

    check out this video:

    /watch?v=0vCmO22_huk

    livin' on a preyer starts there at 4:03 ;)

  • @Mitsukaoru Sure, I thought so too. But then I realized it is a cover song of a Swedish singer named Anki Bagger! If there is a similarity with Bon Jovi's song (and I have to agree with that) then it was Anki who "stole" it first!

  • @Mitsukaoru

    No its more like an Anki Bagger song (Swedish rockgirl) but ya she might have stiólen some from BJ. ;)

  • @Mitsukaoru Yeah it does :D

  • @Mitsukaoru Goddamn, you are fuckin' right! ()_()

  • I did hear the original version from another artist, but I think Nightwish's version is better

  • OMG, I don't belive this!!! The music that remind part of my childhood: "Where Were You Last Night" by Wink..... Is so good to hear that song again, mainly by the Nightwish! Congratulations!

  • Regardless of what happened in their group they were incredible together and still incredible on their very own. They both still have my support.

  • @sketcheddreams finally someone else with a brain

  • Last night I was listening to this song a million times.

  • Lol. Same Riff as in "White Death" by Sabaton!

  • 3:00

  • Oh my, 100% Favorite song. It makes the world go round!

  • @PrincessLucia10

    Totally Agreed!!

  • They did and do a good job! Well done NW. No matter who the singer is, this is team sport, they need to be good together.

  • its still tarja turen or not?

  • @TheGewayn This is Tarja.

  • How many mediocre covers did NW make while Tarja was in the band? I seem to find new ones every week.

  • 21 people got shot through the heart last night

  • When the keyboard riff comes in right after the key change at the end, I actually end up splooging up my pants every single time. This is very frustrating in the car.

  • awesome song.who cares what it sounds like.in this case "you give love a bad name" also "if you were a woman and i was a man" but again,this song owns

  • if you don´t like nightwish anymore, cause tarja left the band, you can say that you listened it just because the girl. all TRUE nightwish fans like new songs just as much as the old ones. it´s same thing whit every band.

  • i love this songggg!!!! to the 21 people who dislike this: Where were u last night?

  • This song is Originally by Ankie Bagger back in 1989.

    Co-Written and Produced by Alexander Bard From Army of Lovers, Vacuum & BWO.

  • Does anybody knows the album this song belongs to?

  • @MissCymbaline it's a bonus track on the 'Wish I Had An Angel' single =)

  • me encanta esta version!!!

    todo lo que hace TARJA es increilble♥♥♥

  • @TheCRADLE626 Um...English.

  • is it just me or does the beggining of this song sort of sound like "shot through the heart"? idk XD and the chorus. lol just the music. hahaha whatever LOVE NIGHTWISH!!!!!! awesome song. ^_^

  • @mullent169 Do you mean You Give Love A Bad Name by Bon Jovi?

  • @mullent169 Yeah, I hear it too. Brilliant.

  • I have so many mixed emotions about this song. I love Nightwish, I love Tarja but I hate pop. God help me, I'm so torn!!!!

  • this one pretty sounds like Bon Jovi song You Give Love A Bad Name ...nice

  • @Brilinzz I KNEW i recognised the tune! :D

  • Ankie Bagger version (the original) is the best.

  • jesus christ... damn Toumas you went wrong with this song o.O

  • you're in the snipers sight, a first kill tonight

    time to die

    you're in the bullet's way, white death's pray

    say goodbye

    Sabaton - White Death

  • @grabarz941 HAHA!!! I thought the very same thing dude!

  • People are STILL bitching about Tarja? Jesus, you people are persistent, ill give you that. Anette is a great vocalist, want proof? Listen to "The Escapist", try imagining Tarja singing that. NO. WAY. Tarja was beautiful, but Anette puts so much power into her vocals, its quite impressive. They are both amazing singers with two different styles, both of which are great. And I like Anette for more reasons than that, she actually gives a damn about her fans.

  • @adanawse Lol, it's called audio enhancement.

  • @adanawse listen bro..i understand ur point... i love nightwish!there is no portuguese who loves nightwish more than me but lets be honest..nightwish were never the same again without Tarja that made me cry summer 2005 when she left.we can see that how album selling decreased starting with Anette who has a great voice but not compared with Tarja!no! BUT as a nightwish fan and lover i have to continue giving my contribute enhancing the greatness of this band.GO ANETTE!!make us proud!

    Peace

  • @adanawse Thankyou. How many Tarja fans know that she was cancelling NW shows and obsessing over the money and becoming so wrapped up in her own work? Do any of them really know about the situations regarding her departure? Of course it was sad, but the band's longevity is shown by the fact that they are still here. Tarja's solo stuff is nowhere near NW standard, her vocals or not.

  • @Haladran Exactly! I love Tarja and Nightwish. But no one looks at Nightwish's point. Most people act like Nightwish did everything wrong anf Tarja did nothing wrong! Trust me i wish Tarja would not have acted that way, But she did. and that was like 6 years ago

  • @tokorev747777 Well said. There is no valid reason for the anti-Annette campaign which still goes on. How the band are now is how they're happy: who's to tell them that they're wrong? Doubtless Tarja is an incredible singer, but I will happily listen to any NW song, whoever is singing.

  • @Haladran Hey i love Tarja, But Anette is still awesome! Like you said, Their still happy! And thats all the realy counts right?

  • @tokorev747777 That, is what counts! :)

  • @Haladran I still dislike Anette, and I don't feel I have to apologize for that. I mean, it's not like I dislike her as a person, I just don't like her voice, and not just because it's nothing compared to Tarja's. Even when judged on its own merit, Anette's voice is nasal and obnoxious.

    I don't begrude new Nightwish their happiness, I just don't buy/listen to their new stuff because most of it is just meh. Why bother about new, mediocre songs when I can just re-listen to albums 1-5?

  • @WolfQueene I'm not saying anyone has to apolgise for disliking Annette. The main thing that does my head in with the whole Tarja/Annette thing is the people who come out with stupid statements such as "OMG I hate Annette Nightwish are shit now" there's no reason or thought in that and it's pointless.

    Fair enough you don't rate NW's new songs, but that doesn't mean they're any worse. Even if Tarja was still in the band, the songs would have changed anyway. Tuomas writes them, remember.

  • @Haladran you deserve a medal <3

  • @EvilBakaCat Why thankyou :)

  • @Haladran I do not run an Anti-Annette campaign (in fact I quite like her voice). But I ran an anti- Post Century Child campaign xD Toumas became a Hans Zimmer clone after Century Child. He is not just influenced by Hans Zimmer, he straight up copies melodies and arrangements.

  • @4look4rd I am so glad to know I am not the only one who thinks Tuomas has become a Hans Zimmer ripoff! :D I just wish he comes back to the oceanborn times where he was Tuomas, not a copy!

  • @IvanTsarina tuomas has called himself a hans zimmer ripoff in a laughing way.tuomas is one of the best composers of this era.ive nicknamed him the andrew llyd webber of metal.when pip williams calls your music the beautiful,twisted,tribal and cinematic stuff you have achievd musical art.i prefer the dark passion play stuff the best work,and i hope imaginarium will be the same,but with just a bit more marco vocals.

  • @MrMarcoisgod i haven't even read your msg as all you say is bullshit so STFU and leave me alone asshole

  • @4look4rd LOL its kind of hard not to be influenced by Hans Zimmer now a days tho lol

  • @Haladran YES thank you lol the bottom line is tarja acted the bitch and put the rest of the band and nightwish fans in the backseat. the band decided together they would be better without her especially since she was going to move on from her 'stepping stone' after another album...to complain about a decision that has nothing to do with you and you know nothing about simply because it makes you unhappy is the epitome of childishness

  • That guy you know said there is no reason to absh any of the two, and you think for soem reason he said to bash tarja?

  • @DragonofShu oh lol sorry i wasnt meaning to bash her just sayin what happened as i understood it. certainly shes an epic singer but she wasnt right for the band apparently 

  • yes obviosuly she was not right for the group afte rall the spirit of the group is Tuomas and Marco. but still it is a pitty that theyw oudl break their long cooperation. Anyway the new girl si good, still in vocals I rpefered Tarja, btu tha tmenas nothing at all i wil alwys love ngiothwish either their vocalist Tarja or Annete or even Bill Clinton and geroge bush(I siad those tow cause I dont like them) XD

  • @DragonofShu LOL pretty sure id stop listening nw if bush or clinton sang for them except for the songs marco sung :3

  • I know waht you mean.... Still i dont think tuomas woudl neevr consider them so, we the peopel of this land can lseep safely at night

  • @DragonofShu i noticed you are 15 and from greece so i will tell you bush was the worst president we have ever had.the fool invaded a country that had nothing to with 9/11 or had weapons of mass destruction.my country is in debt up to its ass. clinton created more jobs and left the country with a surplus.i wish he could run again but we have a thing called term limits.as for the band i agree with 100 percent that marco and tuomas are the spirit of nw.i got my user name from marco and i love nw.

  • yes wahtever. But let me give you an adivce, do not say all these random facts all together. I eamn you satrt by telling mya ge and coutnry. ireelevant with the next thing you say. What you think about bsuh and clinton. then you go on to talk about hwow much you lov enightwish, and how you created your user anme. i got the message okay, but tyr to make your psots more clear genereally

  • @DragonofShu i cant get anymore clearer with what i was saying.you were the one who was talking about the presidents in my country..fact one.fact two i agreed with what you said about tuomas being the heart and soul of nightwish.are the keys on your computer messed up?

  • Ahhh... You still dont get it. My age has nothing to do with all that. You mentioned my age, and my coutnry, in a manner like you were trying to say. "A kid form another country knows less abou the politicains of a country than an adult form the same coutnry". Which has no logical basis.

  • @DragonofShu since you know so much about american politics you should know every bill that was passed by the presidents in my country.i have been a registerd democtrac in my country for about 14 years i know what political views i deeply believe in.tell me what seperates the democrates from the gop?how was the teapartyformed and why?tell me what two important thiing the sumpreme court has ruled on in the past year?whats is the functin of the chamber of congress.who are the koch brothers.

  • 1I didnt say I know more than you abou american politics. What I said was that you should generally not jump to conclusions based in such factors as age or ethnicity. 2What I watch, or read is on greeck, so I cant answer some of those questions right away beacuse I inform mostly on my language as I mentioend. Some political english terms you used are unkown to me sicne I have heard them in greeck on the news. I could go and translate them & asnwer to you. But I have other affairs i.e a test now

  • @DragonofShu How can she not be right for the group if it's because of her that the band made symphonic metal music in the first place? Her vocals and Toumas's compositions are the core of the band.

  • @Haladran I agree with you on that one!

  • @Haladran It's just that Tarja was so much better, that there are two different nightwish. I have nothing against Annette, it's just that I love the old nightwish and don't like the new.

    It's not about telling them they're wrong, it's about, as a fan base, saying what we enjoy and do not enjoy. Doing so should actually be viewed as helpful.

  • @thb9thb i totally agree with you.
