Nightwish - Sleepwalker

[Krishna0666]

Nightwish at €-vision is like PhD in a school math contest.

[argurw1]

I wonder which song was supposed to be "better" wtf?

[Tehonne]

So Finland just didn't want to win back in 2000...

[JiaNightwishTarja]

voice of angel *.*

[nicoNike94]

bad

[NenadlPopovic]

I wish I could see Nightwish with Tarja at Eurosong... They would win for sure

[juudo]

I like nightwish, but that was terrible.

[juudo]

Terrible.



[itsmedreeeam]

tarja is so amazing.

[BETSAIDA360]

BEATIFUL!!!!!! GREAT VOICE TARJA

[Karen21242]

OMGOSH! TUOMAS HAS SHORT HAIR!!! =O

[berobeqa184]

it's really great song, my favourite with swaneheart!

[Bille994]

I think Finland could've won easily with this song! Wtf were they thinking not voting for this?! xD

[JiGe96]

@Bille994 If only public voting would have been enforced, this would have won by far. It was the jurys fault.

[The7thsonof7thson]

@Bille994 Well the people of Finland voted Nightwish for victory but votes of the "authority jury" or something voted not for them and they ended up second

[Amandio099]

Nightwish...mi banda favorita por lejos!

que temon este!! me encanta =)

[TibiMarica]

Playback?!?... I hope that is not a "stupid" joke! I ...rely... think that is something original...!!!

[MultiBiker54]

I am 54 years old,and what am i thinking about this music???.... Ohh yesss I love it can´t find any better than Nightwish...

[Marina8985]

Love from Moldova =)

[supermonstar13]

<3 love from greeece...

[MrDarknesslover]

who isthe one who makes the second voice?

[The7thsonof7thson]

There's only one problem in this video - why don't they show the band at all? Only Tarja...

[IrisTheOceanSoul]

damn, Tarja has a divine voice!

[michi7l]

short hair tuomas??? XD

[SurrealisticDuck]

Olen niiin vihainen kun tätä ei lähetetty viisuihin vuonna 2000. Raadit sucks :(

[DarjaOnce]

Good Tarja

[TyranosFTW2]

OMG they were so young back then!!!! tuomas had short hair and marco wasn't recruited yet hahahaha it rocks!!!! and i gues that's jukka on the drums lol he is waaaay different now hahahaha :P

[camyers87]

No it is not English flerper10

[camyers87]

what language is this? I love the sound but the words are kinda important too.

[LittleEnkeli]

@camyers87 The song is in English; the subtitles are in Finnish.

[MsIndent]

the best frontwoman ever

[MiaZeklos]

One of their best songs ever. One of world's best songs ever too. :)

P.S.: No, I'm serious.

[MsIndent]

my heart to ther best frontwoman ever!!!

[tibowinterswijk]

They could have won the ESC that year.

It's a pity they didn't represent Finland in 2000.

[IMMORTALSicenunow]

LOL,WTF IS THIS GARBAGE!!!!!

[AaronHolopainen]

this is why I fell in love with the band, no matter what I will follow them, they're a good band but at this time, they were HEAVEN :D

[Revontuletxx99]

IS NOT PLAYBACK!!!!!!! STUPIDS MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!! ¬¬

[Zauron3ooo]

@Revontuletxx99 It is playback live with it, she is singing live but the music is just an instrumental track so it's kind of funny really, the band is there and just hanging in the back giving some effort to look like they were playing the song while the singer stands there doing the real heavy lifting ;)

[Lioncure]

Thank god VEVO dign't get Nightwish music. But they created an account NightwishVEVO, bitches x_x.

[UnHollyMary666]

I think Tarja looks more beautiful when she had a little more fat in her ;) like in this video

[PingouinBleu1]

@plutoniangirl Yes, i think so, bit I just answered someone who does not think so ;). To me it's not playback, you just can listen to it, not the same as in the album, you and I agree on that ^^.

[NicolSlipknot]

HOW CAN jb HAVE MORE VIEWS THAN THIS??!!MAYBE IT'S BEACUSE GUYS FROM NIGHTWISH ARE NOT GAYS LIKE DAMN jb -.-

[Zumzumfoxy]

I love how her voice craps out at 2:11. XD

[Saaamaaanthaaaaa]

i just don't know why they hate this song (i mean the band)

it is so beautiful :~

[EllyMoody]

silly mainstream finish people.. if they wouldn't be repulsed by anything "dark" to represent them, they would win the eurovision that year

[loonaloonyluvgood]

@EllyMoody i think finns are actually less exigent about "dark"music..any other country wouldn't have even imagined such thing.i mean nightwish at least won in the voting

[EllyMoody]

@EllyMoody

are you fin ? what do you mean one in the voting ? they made it to 2#

[herde8]

@EllyMoody They lost by jury points.

[EliorFein]

@herde8

ah hhaaa. thnx. that's so very wrong :- (

[MissEgasMoniz]

Tarja looked great with the hair extensions.

[HplarsDecoded]

i thought Tarja's Hair was kinda' short at the Era of Wishmaster...?

[CaioLugon]

dammit tarja! why did u had to be so cocky!

[funcpl2741054]

sorry..i love nightwish, but this sucks

[dieseldog00]

@funcpl2741054 I agree, very poor performance.

[carito1989ful]

que hermoso temaaa..... adoro nightwish, pero el antiguo... el original nightwish...

[miniluigi26]

Tarja is beautiful.

[CanalTal]

T_T Goodbye Tarja...

[SugoiSeshira761]

... short-haired Tuomas OwO

[Shamaan111]

love this song

[Destructakor]

I want to be that sleepwalker, just look at the lyrics :D

[loonaloonyluvgood]

as far as i know they were first from the voting results,but the jury thought they were wrong somehow

[MrPaavola]

ei voi muuta ku itkee ettei tää päässy edustaa suomee, vituttaa edellee...

[thanhthao1203]

They began everything from a small stage together but.......night is without wish now. missing the past. 

[ChibiPandychan]

aww, How clean cut her voice sounds on this one!! <33 Very Sharp, PERFECT!

[Revontuletxx99]

Is Sami Vänska in the bass?



[fistyke]

@Revontuletxx99 Yes, he quit the band in 2000 after they released Wishmaster and toured

[Feanor2345]

@fistyke

He did not quit. Tuomas kicked him out.

[flyaway2magicland]

Tuomas looks cuute xD

[THEBLOODKING123]

I want to have sex with Tarja's vocal cords

[beautifulwomensful]

iol

[andreslrds73]

Me encanta esta canción , es una d elas mejores interpretaciones q hace nightwish, q por cierto no es lo mismo sin TARJA, y creo q llega a Perú este mes si alguien sabe a donde pasen la voz por favor, quiero viajar a Lima a verla.

[LaughingRatherLoudly]

Oh my goodness! It's strange seeing Toumas not looking like Jack Sparrow.

[Ladypurpulhair]

this song makes me cry every time I hear it.

is my favorit song of all time and (sadly) it reminds me of a guy I love.

[Ossian1993]

play back SHIT

[PingouinBleu1]

@Ossian1993 Playback?

[plutoniangirl]

@PingouinBleu1 naw cant be ... it is competition

[Hoarderify]

@Ossian1993 what the fuck ????? playback ??? u re shit

i will put mi hand in fire for nightwish so calm down i never saw or heard nightwish using playback ... simply because they dont need it

[eventhesmartone]

@Hoarderify That was the old days with tarja, you never know with anette

[Hoarderify]

@eventhesmartone well thats true but i talked about Tarja ofcourse....

[Onibubu666]

@Hoarderify You are totally right. they DONT need to. but believe me, at shows like these they have to do. not because the want, but because they are "forced" to... thats normal!

[InTheShadowOfHorns]

@Hoarderify Nightwish uses some playback live. Granted, it's for stuff like orchestra and choirs that actually is hard to recreate in a live setting. Though I think they're relying on it too much nowadays, they use playback and never were really secretive about it either.

[Hoarderify]

@InTheShadowOfHorns i know but thats only thing that is playback everything else is pure live

(choirs, flutes etc i agree and still it doesnt change fact they were totally awesome and i miss times with Tarja actually i nearly cry when i watch end of an era)

[SleepingSunxXx]

Tarja <3 You're very wonderful! And your voice is.. fantastic! I love Nightwish with Tarja!

[uligat0oo0]

Wow

[GNR24996]

Taaarrrrrrrrja *-*

HOT HOT HOT!!!

[PureFleur]

Nightwish in Eurovision! It would be a total win, among the other fake singers...

[Avradizimir]

@thepianostarful

Thanks so much for pointing me in their direction! Now I have another terrible cookie cutter goth band to moan about. They're not in the same league as Nightwish or Epica, not even close. Stop spamming all Nightwish videos to promote your band (no one is falling for the 'enthusiastic fan' rubbish), it's sad and desperate.

[loonaloonyluvgood]

in fact to me it's their best song..maybe beacuse they sang it live only one time maybe not besides i don't think it's not "too metal" just veryvery melodic

[ss2341]

F*cking judges didn´t want Finland to win on metal. Had to wait 6 years...

[ush92]

epic song 0:00

[5Raphael4]

1:02

Epic eyes.

[Luk4music]

sorry im ignorant in what language are the subtitules? finnish?

[ss2341]

@Luk4music sorry, where Nightwish come from?

[Luk4music]

@ss2341 i dont know..-.-

[loonaloonyluvgood]

@ss2341 you're serious?

[tKapina]

@Luk4music Yea in finnish.

[probatos1]

mid tempo...mediocre in general....its not their best song so no wonder they didn't go through

[IvanTsarina]

@probatos1 it is a very beautiful song! why is it mediocre? because it is not "too metal"?

[kagomeotilia]

i can't believe they didn't qualify to eurovision.....

[branisko77]

@kagomeotilia sad to know

[Rayzo12]

AMAZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNN­NNGGGG <3

[MindolluinBusta94]

Playback I believe.. :[

[OscarDerLoewe]

@MindolluinBusta94 It's singback according to the ESC rules. All human voices must be live, the rest can come playback. Tarja and the backing singer do it great.

[Ikrizelle1]

why couldn't represent Finland during Eurovision 2000? They jury is deaf i guess

[impvr1]

@Ikrizelle1 people can vote by calling a number so they decide=)

[MajaBG206]

Predivna...pozz iz Srbije...

[kosmynunlimited]

this is the wind of my wings

[lisekower736]

jest świetna

[lisekower736]

nightwish tylko z Tarja Turunen

[kaskuu95]

@lisekower736 zgadzam się :)

[valerieannhogue]

OMFG every time I hear this song I get chills and I am repeatedly blown away by how amazing it is!

[Gergorable]

Woman singing in background is too loud ;/ Still great song!

[heisenmanFC]

Even in this poor quality audio, you can hear Tarja voice was perfectly flawless.

[SendMeAnAngel94]

oh i love this song, so much <3

pozz from Serbia!

[foundintranslation3]

absolutely beautiful opera voice

[GNR24996]

Tarja looks very sexy and innocent in this video *-*

I love her!

[FireRagnarok]

Is there anybody who knows who that backing singer is? I've been trying to find that out for ages. Is it Marianna Pellinen?

[MrOneAndOnlyMan]

54 f****ng haters

[obamasmash]

silently the senses abandon all defenses... i think i heard that somewhere before.......

[chloboshoka]

@obamasmash Music Of The Night from the musical Phantom Of The Opera. :)

[topinforma]

Her voice is simple Delicious to our ears

[intataxia]

She is perfect...

[jvmc08]

Tarja just gets hotter as she ages

[Adrianabunbury]

este es el verdadero nightwish!!!!

[Carminantiqua]

She was a Diva from the first moment and the people loved her and I think that's why the band threw her... They was jealous!!!

[destroyallhaha]

it's funny when you look at these older Nightwish videos, the rest of the band looks kind of silly with their clothes and hair, but Tarja always looked great from day one. 

[Infinitypart2]

@destroyallhaha

what's wrong with their hair?

in the beginning of Nightwish the boys had short hair because they had just served the arrmy and couldn´ t have long hair.

And I think Tuomas still looks hot, even in short hair:D

[aliveandkickingohyea]

@destroyallhaha So... do you think that normal looking people look silly?

[destroyallhaha]

@aliveandkickingohyea

i didn't mean to offend anyone. the point was that in these older videos they didn't have the great style that they now have. now when you look at the more recent pictures of the band, they just look really cool and more confident.

[aliveandkickingohyea]

@destroyallhaha Ok, I understood that comparison, but the way you expressed it wasn't very nice to the guys who looked quite good too, though not as dressy as Tarja who has always been classy like you said :) In general men don't pay so much attention to their clothes or look.

The main thing of course is music, but costumes fitting the music give eye candy :) And yes, international succes and experience has made them more confident since the time this video was recorded.

[IvanTsarina]

@destroyallhaha

hahaha good comment!

[umpisuoli87]

@destroyallhaha They made that purpose, they gave Tarja to the spotlight, when they had her in front of all picttures/videos, they cannot fail.) or i don't know..

[dakisek]

@destroyallhaha I agree with you that Tarja looks wonderful most, if not 100% of time, but... have you seen the very first photos? haha nooo I don't like her hair-do I think :D :D :D

[n4given2]

@destroyallhaha Tuomas does not look silly :)

[gusghost]

@Adrianabunbury With all due respect to tastes and opinions... I thought she would never be able to pull off Ghost Love Score, especially in the higher notes, and as it happens... she sings it amazingly well. Not like Tarja´s version, but really good...and she sings the high parts as I never thought she would. I´m not saying for sure she could do this one, but she could try. Sacrament of wilderness is an old one and to my opinion (and many others) it´s one of her best versions

[Adrianabunbury]

@gusghost well i heard her version of the old song and i didn´t like them, SOW for me was a sacrilege of her part, well but as you say i have my opinion and you have yours.

[IvanTsarina]

@Adrianabunbury lol! sacrilege of wilderness xD

[Adrianabunbury]

@IvanTsarina hahahahah, yes the anetta´s version should be called sacrilege of wilderness hahahahahah

[Adrianabunbury]

por favor que anette no trate de cantar esta canción nunca su vida es mas que ni siquiera lo piense la destruiría como muchas otras

[BiipoOO]

@Adrianabunbury ja ja jaja es verdad!!

[ss2341]

Those judges must be somekind of flowerhat ladies

[mofrakker]

The heavy version is a 'tad' bit better if you've had a chance to listen too it. This is one of the classics.

[Claytonkenshin]

Esse é das antigas! Muito bom vídeo! =)

[1969gvg]

Изънземен глас

[darkyerley]

That beautiful really beautiful voice

[vlad130485]

i love u. tarja...

[Starrman69]

Wow! I just found this by accident and to learn that it was done 10 years ago!

Now, I'll be catching up on not having enjoyed their music until now. She has such a beautiful voice!

[Sarekai]

Her voice blows my mind.

This is so beautiful.

[7Patrixthe7]

Tarja's voice is amazing

[pronty77]

It was the first time I heard of Nightwish. Been a fan of (old) Nightwish ever since. Still gives me goosebumps <3

..and that was the first and only time I have ever voted in the Eurovision. They should have won. After all they did get most votes from the people.. Damn judges! Stupid stupid STUPID judges.

[Ladypurpulhair]

if only I cud sing like her.... she is and will always be my Siren <3

[fanipenguin]

tuomas looks like harry potter here without the glasses:D

[cesarghan]

bet some pop crap won

This is one of their best songs, and it is not Metal!

[Adrianabunbury]

tarja: Clásica y Divina

[Storma95]

So far this great gothic musical period of that band... Now it's not gothic metal anymore, its pop rock.

[Ladypurpulhair]

@Storma95 sad but thrue -.-* but they still rock just not in the same way (:

[FeelOceanWorld]

Magical song! I can listen to it over and over again. Sleepwalker hypnotizes me every single time, it's magic... love old nightwish

[streak9381]

i love this song. :)

[johandrea92]

OK, is it just me or Tuomas looked alike (a bit) like Jared Leto??

Great song! :D

[LucaCastellazzi74]

TARJA RULES!

[Darkpassionplayer85]

puttana troia ke bbonaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

no...ma avete presente quando e un piacere x tutti i sensi vedere e sentire una persona cantare?!?!?! TARJA TURUNEN!!! <3

[venussiren]

ke barbaridad comono gano, carajo, pero komo negar k es una de lasmejores voces del mundo y esta canción es hermosa

[donnapanda]

I hate Eurovision! It only wants crap to win! Just look at my country's entries - the last decent record was in the 60s!

[18VanHelsing18]

x3 You can see her bra....

....Does this make me immature?

[wtwh1]

@18VanHelsing18 sorta.... lol but she is awesome<3

[hitc5678]

tarja is so pretty :)

[MrsLesleyOlivia]

I can't believe this is Tarja<3

[nightwish231]

I hate Eurovision -.-'

Eurovision should be blessed of having a band like this playing there!!

I think the judges were deaf or drunk.When they wake up they were thinking: How the hell this band didnt won?I made the worst mistake ever xDDDD loool

[YouAreLost2]

@nightwish231 Only crap manages to win in Eurovision, remember? ;) Having that in mind, thank God NW didn't win...
