I just don't see why there are people who think Tarja is so good. I mean she's good at the style she's doing, it's not my cup of tea. I prefer Anette, Nighwish can do a lot more with her anyway. I don't like Simone from Epica very much, she just sounds kinda plain and boring. Just my opinion.
Question: What makes Tarja so great a vocalist in your opinion?
I myself can only look at her collective work and say that she's got a unique tonality. I keep trying to prove to myself that she's the best singer in all of heavy metal, but when I try to put my finger on one song exactly, nothing really comes up.
For that reason I say confidently that Simone Simons is the better vocalist, Tides of Time is the proof. Nothing, not a single thing do I have against Tarja, but Simone, holy s**t.
Saw her live in Thessaloniki,Greece a few days ago and she was just amazing.Actually I went there with a friend of mine who was a Nightwish and is a Tarja fan.The truth is that I wasn't crazy about Tarja, I used to say "Ok,she has an incredible voice,but that's all".The night I saw her live I went crazy and now I just adore her
I love Nightwish... I feel like Ive been bewitched...
her voice is awesomeness... so... beautiful...
Ive listened to other versions of the Phantom of the Opera and this is the best Ive heard!
Tarja's voice is so beautiful...
and no offense to anyone but I like Anette and Tarja, and since Tarja isn't with Nightwish anymore I'm listening to her other songs... so long as I can hear her voice, she is indeed the angel of music...
She's just so damn good... i have this live version on my ipod and a lot of live on tape Nightwish stuff and they sound much better live. Can't say that for many bands out there at all.
2:08 makes me laugh ;) Really great performence. There are not many musicians who can sing so well on a concert. It's one of not many live performences I prefer to the CD version :)
I've got the whole gig on DVD. My parents have watched it with me for many many times and we always cry during this performance. Nightwish is this kind of band that could cover everything. YEAH, EVERYTHING. From "High Hopes" to "Phantom of the Opera". I don't like when someone or some band covers Pink Floyd or such classic ones like "Phantom.." but they're the only one who can. I salute'em.
o_O the crowd is in ecstasy. I have pics of this woman on my computer from before I even knew who she was, cause I was like whoaa who is that? She's so pretty!
@DittaKruspe i cannot agree with you more i cried more to this than i have to anything else every time i listen to this song i break down my heart breaks in two do you think im pathetic or passionate
@hotbambi2010 Passionate, obviously... this is the purpose of the music, touch your heart, evoke emotions, not just sale, and this song, the voice of tarja really make it
cada vez q veo este video y escucho la voz de mi angel de la musica me da escalofrio no se por q >> q hermosura canto divino en su ultimo momento dio lo mejor de si
this song always makes me cry tears of admiration for the beautiful opera singer in my most favorite opera song. thanks for uploading this .xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
@AdrianWolfenstein When do you all accept , you can't compare Tarja and Anette, they are totally different but in their different ways very, very good!
@vampirchenanni Sure, they are completely different... For example: Mrs. T. has a brilliant voice; Ms. A. hasn't got any voice at all... BUT: they are both very nice and pretty women!!!
anette is doing great but it was better to choose someome with an opera voice aswell becuase the nightwish songs are like unsingable with a popvoice [anette]
I do wish Tarja never sing with these suckers (except Emppu) again, unless they lick the floor she steps on.. they´ve betrayed her in the most childish stupid way!
WHY did they get rid of her???? LET THE WOMAN DO HER SOLO THEN BRING HER BACK!!! now we're stuck with Anette.... not that i dont like her, she just cant sing Tarja's songs... she would kill this...
@kraDracsO Soory but I don't agree with you at all!Tarja is the best Finlandian opera singer and her voice made Nightwish to be something special.In my oppinion,today,Nightwish is just a band!
@ladam033 Of course, but it has departed on personal wish Tarja and has not to be surprised that siię nightwishowi. They condole over still very it. However, it advises not bad Anett. Though it already not same group. :(
I love this vid...my teacher showed it to us before we saw POTO and I just finished this part in the movie! When the Phantom takes Christine down to the lair, I just LOVE THE MOVIE!!
if i had gone to a nightwish concert (before tarja left) i so would've worn the polar opposite set of clothing that everyone in this video is wearing, just to see how many kids would get pissed.
I just don't see why there are people who think Tarja is so good. I mean she's good at the style she's doing, it's not my cup of tea. I prefer Anette, Nighwish can do a lot more with her anyway. I don't like Simone from Epica very much, she just sounds kinda plain and boring. Just my opinion.
