If Tarja wasn't such a headcase, she wouldn't have the problems she has, Simone while high strung is definitely much more level headed. No matter, they all can sing, I really enjoy Amanda, and Simone, and Tarja with Nightwish was some stellar music, on her own, not so much. As for voice, Mezzo's are ok, I prefer a Lyric Soprano personally, almost a colorotura, but more range than a mezzo. The female voice is such a beautiful thing in any range

oh amanda is beautiful xD I saw her in one of epicas videos and she totally amazed me!! Yet i only have to find out who was that women with the black hair who sangs with amanda! can someone tell me?
@WhiteNightFantasy178 I was wondering that myself. I believe her name is Linda van Summeren, and she is the wife of Epica's keyboard player. She has her own website, she just had a baby.
Simone can never be a Mezzo she is a soprano because her voice is not so dramatic and low her voice is softer than a mezzo even she is not a dramatic soprano do you think that she can sin azucena or carmen ? o cherubion...?
she CANT she cant sing as a lady macbeth too ..
but she is not a kollaratura too
she is a lyrical soprano i am an opera singer and i hear her in this way
She is Simone's vocal coach when they record studio albums, that doesn't mean she is her vocal teacher, it means she helps her with pronouncing etc. Simone has had several vocal teachers but Amanda was none of them.
@Suomentaja Simone is lucky she have a substitute when she have burn outs or sick... Tarja and Floor have no substitutes,,,they have more pressure problems than simones... good thing Simone and Amanda are good friends and got a same vocal range too...
I never said that she should because of their kind of voices,I meant that if she doesn't have a proper technique,she shouldn't be trying to teach her lack of it...I mean,simone is not a really good singer,she does have a pretty voice,but first,she is NOT a mezzosoprano,and second,she doesn't know how to reach her low tones in a good way...she's not well thaught
guess you catched her in a bad day...or your standards are imposibly high:)...aniway I like her more than amanda who is also great...but that's my opinion so no offense:)
lol,not imposibbly high,Vibeke stene fits there pretty good...anyway,that was simone in the past,she is better now,since she got to realize she's a soprano not a mezzo,and her high notes seem to be more "polished" ...
ok,well hmmm for what I know,she is not yet fully trained as a singer in general,but one thing's for sure,she is a soprano...there are so much teachers that conffuse with mezzos and sopranos,but if you compare simone's voice in the phantom agony with other mezzos,her voice is way lighter than the others...
hmmm,well she sings nice,but if she was simone's teacher I think she must be deaf,since simone is no mezzo,she shall be a lyric soprano,but of course,without the right basics she is not able to reach such high notes...
where's the problem? a mezzosoprano can give lessons to a soprano, it's only technique, even soprano can reach high notes, the way they uses their throats and their diaphragms is the same, and Amanda's got better technique, although I think Simone 's got prettier voice ^^
@lateralex90 : Voice's color doesn't depend on the notes you can reach. Mezzo is a "type of voice", such as Simone's. A mezzo can reach higher notes than a soprano, soprano means "light voice".
@Llilyhful I never mentioned color...and I'm still very sure that neither of them (simone nor amanda) are mezzos...btw, mezzos usually don't get that far UNLESS they are coloratura mezzo soprano (which should be strinctly trained to handle virtuous passages)...Simone is a LYRIC SOPRANO, not even a dramatic one..
@lateralex90 Oh well I'm mezzosoprano and I can outsing Simone Simons when it comes to high notes. My voice stops on Floor Jansen's high notes. She's no soprano, you should refresh your info :) But still, I can't deny shes a very skilled singer.
@lateralex90 i know ur comment is like 5 months ago, but anyways, simone's tessitura stops at Bb5 on american pitch notation (even though she can reach C#6), thats completely mezzo. she loses lots of volume on the higher notes, there's NO possibility of her being soprano (:
@thedaydreamwalker93 usually, vocal range doesn't determine wether you are one or another, the thing that determines it is the tessiture you feel comfort with, and simones low notes sound really throat and chest and really at the back, not as it should be; she fakes her voice to sound deeper, and that happens naturally in everyone even tenors and light voices, they lose volume if not properly done and positioned
want her album ._. she has a great technique with not a terribly 'awesome' voice but she definitely use it brilliantly! I had said once for me she is better than Simon *now started the trolls and complaints etc, etc.* but well, it's not as if i will have an epica album with she singing as a leader -_-
...i need Amanda's album.
btw, Ene! i didn't know it was your vid XD until now -wel it's like the 4th time i watch it XD
I love this song. Her voice reminds me of Amy Lee which is a bonus for me because Amy Lee is my favorite singer! :] I'm so glad I came across Amanda. She's awesome!
@Coolcat233 since when iv listened to evanescence before they became big ( second album) and have only ever heard amy lee sing well on 1 song in all of the albums
@aberdeencat Actually amy has a very good voice, she has a bluesy soulful low key voice not operatic, I still adore simone and all the others and I am getting sick of everyone comparing them
lol? Zietbukuel, what are you on about, Aquamarinegurl89 clearly says that Amanda reminds her of Amy Lee not that Amy has a better voice, your the idiot.
