Sleeping Sun

[01Nicole01]

this version isn't bad by Anette. But there are old songs she seriously fucked up.

[zsofyka29]

i won't cry, i won't... :"( Anette, stop, pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase! new singer - old songs - noo! new singer - new songs = ok, she would be a really good singer, her voice is great!

[XxLoezyxX]

yeah you are right

new singer - new songs :)

[hmgkelvin]

Nightwish - Sleeping Sun

[capkosovo]

It's not bad.

[Inferever]

They killed the song...again! This version is even worst than 2005 version...oh god!

[ironheaven]

so beautiful..Anette is great person and singer .i love her <3

[motorade]

Awsome !

[ajamesu]

this version's amazing, her warm voice contours this song nicely

but no one can sing it like tarja ;D

both versions of this song gave me chills (both good ;P)

[exciterone]

Stop this shit

[niahaa]

beurk ! that's all I want to say !! shit ! double shit !!

Tarja's rock !!

Anette's shit !!

[Luziferofdarkness]

anette may be good but she will be never as good as Tarja... I can't understand.. And I can't accept Anette.. Tarja is the real Vocalist.. Sorry guys , I think so.. Listen to THAT and then to Tarjas sleeping sun.. Sorry.. Tarja is much better..

[YulieAna]

However thinks that Anette is only a "kareoke" singer and "probably took a few singing lessons in her life", you need to stop thinking, it is obviously not one of your strong points, and do some reasearch on at least Alyson Avenue. That is the band she was in before Nightwish.

[boteci2001]

Absolutely awesome! Great performance by Anette 5*

[Valanther]

yyy what is this goddammit ??!! get out of this scene Anette! totaly defeat from your side. i wanna tarja's come back to nightwish. Anette is Suck!!!

[YulieAna]

Noone cares, go cry somewhere else. You can start with Tarja's solo album.

We also want for retards to stop posting here. But we don't always get what we want, skippy.

[akiracard]

no esta demasiado mal, mejor le sale AMARANTH a Anette, TARJA ES DIFERENTE

[nimloth18]

arruina totalmente la cancion es horrible

[DeadLaddy]

All the comments of Tarja-fans are rated as "poor ones".

DAMN people, everyone has his own music taste!

That song is definatelly beautiful. In it's original version - sung by Tarja. She always did the great job on the stage, actually everywhere.

It sounds to different when Anette sings it. She shouldn't sing the old songs because they're even not written for her and her voice. She's the new Nightwish singer but she should leave alone the old songs and our memories of them.

[gothicrose5588]

Look at the end of the day most people who like her are into pop music I have noticed or they just want to bed her. That is why she is popular because she is young and 'fit' 'hot'. Listen to her strain her voice with ''wish'' for example. Perhaps she should be singing the songs from the Amarath album due to the fact everyone commenting - It's a 'New Nightwish' then leave the old songs behind and stick to the pop rock.

[TheB1gEd]

tarja is six years younger than anette ;)

and yes you are right, those masterpieces shouldn't be butchered by anette!

She does a great job on the new songs, but the old ones just aren't made for her ...

[YulieAna]

"Look at the end of the day most people who like her are into pop music I have noticed or they just want to bed her."

If you were in court you would've been arrested for embelishing the truth.

And yes, we've already heard the "pop" theory, it has been dismissed on all accounts.

[letshavemadness]

Amaranth album? :P

[dcow123]

Horrible

[rolsch474]

Its not her songs but she does a good job!

[NightDark666]

this song really lost his magic

it was verry special when tarja sings it

but now it sounds not special annymore

ok Anette is a good singer but the new songs sounds much better when she sings it then when she sings the old(er) songs

[massacratore74]

This song has lost its magici

[foreverandever19]

I don't understand people who don't like Anette's voice

It's beautiful and she's got great talents, and it fits the music

Anette is bella enchanta :)

[desanjustosoy]

no me gusta parece cantando por un sueño dejense de joder TARJAAAA VOLVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[MedusaCBGB]

terrible...arruinó la canción!!!...te extraño Tarja :(

[bociek93]

beautiful song!

[Herarudu]

not bad but tarja sang better

anette should sing the new songs

[iLeS83]

...... my god.. look for some girl here on youtube making a cover of this song... and u will find.. that lot of them sings better this song than annette.. this is horrible..

[xxxthoughtlessxxx]

Maybe because they're classical like Tarja?

[thom60150]

it's different to tarja but its really beautiful too

[jakobo88]

the question is: why does the band get such a singer instead of some other with a more rocking voice to fit with the true metal/rock? the intention is clear: gather more stupid fans and gaining as much money as posible, as they did before with their last album, videoclip etc.... mtv! cool music! nightwish = a waste

[YulieAna]

You honestly don't know what you are talking about. They actually took a risk at picking someone totally different, because Tarja was extremely popular among the fans.

The band likes her, the fans like her. End of story. Move on.

[nooooobi]

no we actually don't like her lol

[YulieAna]

you don't need to like her. it is not a matter of taste, but a desire to bring someone down because she does not match your taste.

[Kurayami1207]

Don't you have like, better stuff to do than defending Anette? I love this song only with Tarja singing it, Anette's voice kinda doesn't fit, but that's my opinion. Actually, THAT SUCKS! I'll stop watching it now. Byebye!

[YulieAna]

"Don't you have like, better stuff to do than defending Anette?"

I'm perfectly happy with posting on youtube. If it doesn't bother me, it shouldn't bother you.

"love this song only with Tarja singing it, Anette's voice kinda doesn't fit, but that's my opinion"

I like how Tarja sings it too....on a CD. Why doesn't Anette fit? Because she does not sing pseudo opera?

[Kurayami1207]

In a way, yeah. But her voice is kinda "too young", you know? She can't really show enough emotions with it, I think.

[YulieAna]

Anette has been a professional singer for years and she is older than Tarja. She cannot change her pitch given to her by nature, it is biologically impossible.

[Kurayami1207]

I didn't say she should change, I just said that her "natural pitch" doesn't fit to that song, which is simply my opinion. I mean, this song was kinda written for Tarja to sing it, so sure she's the best person to sing it and sure her pseudo-opera-voice fits best to it, but as I said: that's my opinion.

[jakobo88]

seriously, this singer is all that nightwish could aim for? i mean, that voice is just 'fairly mediocre', without talent and vocal blessing ofc.

she probably has just taken some lessons , and the feeling i have is that is kinda like pop singing , almost every fan out there thinks the same.

[beafb]

I gotta admit that I was afraid of what she could do with the song, but I really enjoyed it :)

[viettelee]

hope i never listen to her singing Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan :S

[Maxcaster]

thats beautiful too!

[Tangakkai]

everything is great only one thing is bad... they tuned the song donw one whole step from D to C... bad idea... feeling gets lost, doesn't sound as good as before... but as for everything else... great, to thunbs up

[sahara0587]

She has a really strange and ridiculos movements as Tarja. Every vocalist make funny movemnets not only Tarja ¬¬

About the song there's nothing than the original. It's all I have to say. This video speaks for itself. I don't like the endings like ''with youuuooouuu'' she brakes the notes I hate the vocalists do that.

[YulieAna]

I really don't see anything "magical" about Tarja's moves on stage. The girl has a vocal talent, but she can't rock on stage. She is awkward at best. Anette has a much stronger stage presents.

[jaridestevam]

Eu realmente gostei disso.

[Unkeled]

Annette is good, she looks good and doesn't do stupid moves on stage like tarja did.

[kingaksu]

So beautiful voice:)

[PinkDekaranger]

I don't like this version. Maybe I could sing this too, lol

[EstouAquiSoPraVer]

i like this song sung by her, actually i prefer if it's sung by her lol at least we understand what she's singing

[therasmusfreakyfan]

wow.. I also love her version, and Sleeping Sun's even one of my favs! Go Anette!

[celticgirl08]

She has a great voice ^_^ .... but nothing like the original *sigh*

[AlmightyDM]

Hmm...I like, she has great potential...can't wait to see them november 2nd

[TheWishperwind]

I saw this again... I really hate her :P

Tarja Rulz!

[narcissil]

I love!!! I love!!! I love!!! I love!!!

[gaorpo]

me encata esta version!!! un 10!

[TheWishperwind]

Damn, she ruined the song!

SHUT UP B!TCH, im sure she's friend of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera or Beyonce!

[narcissil]

wow!! what's all delicacy, kindness and of course a wondeful and refined vocabulary...

[YulieAna]

I'm sure you are friends with the little gremlin in your head who who puts silly ideas there.

Being a retard is not a crime, but a tragedy. However, being an evil retard will cost you.

[MetalWillStandTall]

Nightwish Still Rules!

[newfie1830]

this version is awesome, i didn't like it when i heard tarja was leaving, but anette has an amazing voice!

[cautionarytale]

Anette <3 she's amazing!

[Hemanthemannequin]

The only real problem for me is the difference of the accent's at the beginning of the song I find it really odd but again I prefer this version.

[Darkmaster250]

check sleeping sun, live in Hamburg on you tube, what no emotions, that's pure emotion

[seacowlove]

I have to say Sleeping Sun never really did it for me vocally when Tarja sang it. The old version seemed too classical, so much so that all the emotion was compromised and the new version was so weak it was awful. But I really like this one, go Anette!

[narcissil]

Nice version. I like it pretty much.

[tarjaenkeli]

JAJA AGUANTE WISHING TEMPTATION XD

[ozonedan]

Nightwish? What's Nightwish? xD

[magnetojohn]

just accept the true fact....now annete belong to nightwish..so stop complaining.for tarja will be remembered always for sure

[nikolas27]

i think she sung ok...

i meen hit all the notes...

but it didn't have the same power than the tarja version...

shes hell of a good singer, but not in tarja's songs

[locecraft]

Beautiful , thanks .

i love it ! just beautiful that's all ...

[Xerox667]

Preciosa. Me encanta.

It's Very Beautiful. I love it.

[Melodia666]

Yeah, it's different and kinda beautiful like that. I love the way she sings the beginning of the last chorus !

[wfe4567]

hahaha (sadly)....this is a crap (the performance)...there r no such thing as testing concerts bro...if u wanna do it, please do it correctly. if not, just leave this kinda nice song alone. just sing the new material...please.

[gusghost]

well in case u don´t know what I mean, I mean...she will get better with practice. When u start getting the hang of something, you´re no expert at first. I´ve watched videos of Tarja live in the early years of NW. She was just awful. She didn´t know how to use her voice live and it took her 9 years to develope her style. Anette´s been with NW for a few months and is doing fairly good and can get better.

[AlaynaMoebius]

Comeone kill her now....this is ruining everything we keep dear from the Nwish we once loved. If they want to have her and begin a "New Era" with her...fine! but keep away from beautifull songs like this one....just begin from 0 ...as many other fans ask us to take the new formation of the band...

[AlaynaMoebius]

Someone....damn rage...and damn keyboard...

[Darkmaster250]

You're grazy, she sings this song with so much emotions, it's better than Tarja, butt

you Anette haters you live all in history

[AlaynaMoebius]

OMG! you are so deaf I can't even imagine how you manage to hear the song...

She has no shame in the way she distroys the songs by singing them like that. That's why I hate her at least...before hearing this concert I couldn't care less about her...I just remained far from the last album and that's it....but when they did THIS to the calssics...there my hate towards her was born

[HauntingGhost]

Which emotions?Hey,Anette has a good voice,but some songs should remain untouched!And this is one of them!

[tipsu21]

It's not hating anette if one thinks tarja's version was better. no one's trying to say anette isn't a good singer but i do have the right to think that the original version is the best. in this very song tarja's voice was absolutely amazing - you could hear that she actually had studied singing. but hey, that's just what i think. And no I ain't living in history.

[AerithAnNagramm]

Good Music will eternalize, just ask that Beethoven guy. Bad Music will vanish, ask that...damn...forgot his name...oO

[FerocityQueen]

Simply LOVE this

[Loomr]

hmmm she may have a good vocal range but she nevertheles has problems with matching the intented power and volume.

[gusghost]

Well this was just her 2nd gig with them. Probably the old songs, she´s still figuring out how to better sing them, trying out, testing how much her voice can give. She hasn´t been that long with the band and as far as I read, these were like..testing concerts. She didn´t do bad at all.

[AerithAnNagramm]

Yeah, I heard Zeppelin and Pearl Jam did testing concerts too, but strangely they didn't use an audience for that...

[Sorciere91]

thank u for the video/she's really good

[nannebd]

I really think Anette is the best thing that happened to Nightwish! Hahaha

[cornixregina]

So do I :0) Her voice renders me speechless it's so good. I can't wait to see them in March

[themetalcloud]

very much this

[WhatIOnceWas]

You guys must be aware of the fact that Anette hits all those notes, including the ones on Slaying the Dreamer, with her belting voice, which still belongs to her chest voice. So she's got a whole, huge, omogen range, and she only "operates" with it. And she does it awesomely.

[MyChemNightfan]

Tarja is missing but this is so good.

<3 [NW]You are the one

Thanks for posting =)

[CorbinK]

Aneete is amazing.

[DoctorKongo]

Sounds Great

[Dryadanna]

Tarjaaaaaaaaaaa!

[bociek93]

do not say "Anette is bad" because you sing worse than Anette. Anette is the best!

[Withinscars]

aNETTE SINGING BAD

[gusghost]

Anette singing bad....NOT! even two of the highest notes from the song She hits them. Tarja could hit them because of her operatic voice with probably not much effort. This girl like in slaying the dreamer goes at her highest and is able to reach those notes, even with the difficulty it presents since the songs weren´t created with Anette´s strenghts in mind but Tarja´s. I admire Anette´s singing.

[RoxanneWhayt]

Simply amazing. I'll surely cry from happiness if they put it on the setlist for Budapest concert in March. ^^

I also like the other (older) songs sung by Anette now, but this is the best. Tarja's was cold and mighty (I mean it in a positive way), Anette's is more like a ballad - full of sorrow and... yes, emotions. :)

[MrEnoze]

omfg and omfg Tarja Cya sucker xD

[nwcarmen]

amazing

im speackless

O_O

simply amazing!

[Darkmaster250]

this is pure emotion, Anette makes this song better than Tarja, she did it great, she sings this song so beautiful

[mag2ster]

I do like Anettes version better than Tarjas,

It's just feels like there's more feeling in it now, not that tarjas version was bad.

[Selaht13]

Best song ever, so as Tarja's version of it.

[666amaranth999]

She is very, very good!!!

[Inferever]

she ruined the song...

[LifeExit]

Oh My Fucking God!! To everyone who says that this song is sung without any emotion : FUCK YOU!! This is the best version of the song EVER!! I love her emotion that she puts in the song, she really sings with her heart & soul. Good job, Anette! Can't wait to see you all here in Belgium!

[EvaAisha]

Emotion????? Does she hide her emotion in the laces of her skirt?

[LifeExit]

Did Tarja put emotion in this song? I DON'T THINK SO!!

[EvaAisha]

Start "sleeping sun" (sung by Tarja), lay back, close your eyes and just listen......

[LifeExit]

That has nothing to do with emotion. Okay, I agree, Tarja sings that song beautiful! But she doesn't even know what's she's singing about. And she doesn't like metal music, you tell me : did she put emotions in this song?

[janr61]

This is the best version from sleeping sun I've ever heard, Anette does a great job,

I will see them in Amsterdam, I can't wait

[porkkananeito]

Amazing! This sounds hell better than Tarja´s version! Tarja ruined the emotions in this song with her terrible howling in the last few years! I like the middle section more now also! Great job Nightwish!

[Darkmaster250]

I love it

[ileanafromhell]

:( with this song I fell in love with Nightwish.. She ruined everything.. This song is supposed to express deep feelings, her voice doesn't fit with it..she herself admitted that she has an "aggressive" voice... If I heard now Nightwish for the first time, I wouldn't be impressed at all by the music...it's just pop music..

[Melodia666]

Hmm, not bad. Actually I expected worse. Am I the only one to think that her personnal touch is a "Pop" touch ?

[asac1989]

Without a doubt the original Sleeping Sun from Oceanborn is the best.

[larissahyuga]

she screwed ever dream and slaying the dreamer...

the songs of DPP are good though

[smoothielova]

It's ok. It's not horriblw, but not wow either. I think it will take time for them all to get tighter.

[elegantegoiste]

Fantastic :D Better than Sleeping sun 2005

[Poutsaseolatamounia]

Loipon. To gkomenaki ta leei kala.

[mag2ster]

Just love the way she sings at 02.04

[13Nelynt]

Simply Amazing

The Same Old Song

With Feelings added in the voice...completely amazing, Nightwish 100% anyway

[xtheonlyone]

Amazing. Anette really refreshes Nightwish's style, yeah?

[Lidaria]

Yeah, she makes it more... pop...

[100CrashConcrete]

not bad..

AND not good!

[rolsch474]

It´s different from Tarjas style but its also great.
