Tarja Turunen - Die Alive

[EvanNightwishForever]

I don't know why but I really love the part from 0:00 to 6:56

[Cokie23Omega]

I LOVE YOU TARJA !!!!!!

[aguilaix]

Tarja, you're the queen of metal... but you need better composers. 

[unevilGenius]

The part from 2:15 to 3:00 is so epic.

[SKVmarchelO]

@unevilGenius

Agreed. ;)

[Nununda]

Forgive the ignorance of a newfound fan, but how do you pronounce her name? Is it a soft "J" like Tarya, or is it more like Tarzha?

[pirateking83]

@Nununda its pronounced as tarya.

[Mannadanoi]

12 people have an ear disease called dislikeagainandi'llkickyourass

[STAYTOONED2ME]

@Mannadanoi that's actually one of the funniest number of people who disliked the video things

most of them are quite stupid

[YoumiChasu]

@Jiranna *_* this is symphonic metal,right ?

[skolof]

Tarja rocks!

[mikey6700]

Im not one to write comments on vids. But yes im upset Tarja isn't in nightwish anymore, but that doesnt take away from her talent at all. She is amazing with and without them, and its a pain that people only care if she was still apart of nightwish making them suck because their new lead singer Annete can't sing just like her. My opinion a new start with the vocals of nightwish was good. Their still an amazing band, and Tarja is still great alone.

[Seriouslylaughin]

This was her last song at Wacken this year.

he was awesum, everytime she sings is like she tells a story or makes u stronger and stronger. This music is so epic.

I was singing with her all the time, and she built me up again.

Lov her.

[XgamerunlimitedX]

Tarja

I have an obsession!

ever since I heard my first nightwish song in 2004 which was sleeping sun!

:)

[smrk3t4]

@XgamerunlimitedX I think we share the same obsession!! And it's the best obsession you could ever have!! xD

[Mamonuth]

so underrated&amazing artist.

[peacer95]

i think i the Band Nightwish it was better, but she's damn amazing without Band too :D

[Honingworst]

Love love love love loveeee ♥

Tarjaaaaaaaaaaaa 8D

[66andreadler]

She is blessed with an angelic voice...luvthevoice :) Hope she will be as successful as she was with Nightwish.

[Funeralmoon666]

aww i listened to this album while i was on holiday in orlando and listening to it again, makes me really wanna go back :(

[hagrazz]

@Funeralmoon666 makes me going back in winter when the album came out. i walked at the rive, through the snow. my wintersorm on maximum volume.

loved it. no, love it !

[MystSilverDragon]

No more fate.........No more Mystery

[MystSilverDragon]

Dying to the self

[SS8677]

Living her days without feeling, surviving but dead in every other sense..dying alive

[featherwinglove]

@S S8677

I have a much more positive theory on what this song means. I thought instantly that it was related to "Our Great Divide" even before I looked up the authors and discovered that both songs have the same authors. Check out my video under Video Responses for more details

[gilloth]

The choir from ca. 2:30 is kind of like in LOTR (FOTR, part 1) when the Fellowship is in Moria

(I'm not saying it as a negative thing)

[LenTStrikE]

True :P

[cloudednox]

lol, yes

a imagination of tarja singing her way through moria just came into my mind XD

[Himarisch]

Magnifica Tarja!!!

[LalaLunatic]

Nightwish isn't Nightwish without Tarja. :(

don't like the new singer.

The Solo album of tarja is awesome! :D

[LobeliaM72]

This is my first time hearing Tarja post-Nightwish. I can safely say that Nightwish is nothing without her, and she seems to be just fine without them.

[Reienkyo]

Words of the wise, Annette is respectful as a singer but she doesn't have the voice of a goddess like Tarja does, without Tarja they sound just like any other metal band with a female vocalist. They have a big loss there, their band lost their spark.

[MrsCocoCandy]

She's the best ever! Wish you live forever Tarja! Compare to the other female singers ... mmm... you really rock!!! XXX  : )

[XxXxFREAKxXxX1]

das ist viel besser als die meisten anderen sängerinnen, die sich dann aufgrund mangelnder gesangserfahrung auf dämlich lange rufe ohne text beschränken. so was hört sich total bescheuert an. das da natürlich nicht^^

†ΔЯJΔ-•-†-•-ƒØЯΣVΞЯ

[robertexit]

supercool!

[viernes13z]

Greetings From Costa Rica :) to all.

[JPBdircom]

ça ne sonne pas aussi bien que les chansons de Nightwish, sorry ;( Finalement, je me rabats sur Within Temptation. Moins bien, mais ça le fait.

[TheGreekfairy]

nice!

[MystSilverDragon]

keeping me from kneeling.........

[cybermig304]

Tarja is the best , with or without NW ;) Anette can never reach Tarjas level !!!!!

[hagrazz]

@cybermig304 this isnt a question of levels....when anette is tetris, tarja is crysis on maximum details xD

[branisko77]

@cybermig304 yes but nightwish wrote better songs for her

[jvhjordy]

(L) Tarja!

[whiteangelwampire]

Tarja the best with and without the NW!

i love that song, i think it's the best...

We love You, Tarja, so much! <3

[Angelsloveall]

i know i agree she is just as good without nw

[charmedandnightwishl]

that is so true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rory1494]

LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

[CoramBloodySword]

sice ti nerozumim ale mas pravdu

[wiccanwitch666]

I can sing this perfectly, i love Tarja, she's now able to do the things that she couldn't do in Nightwish.

[Wyntear]

How... can you have "Wiccan" and "Witch" in your name with "666?" You do know that we don't believe in that... right?

[wiccanwitch666]

I am a christian now. And My friend made this account, I did not.

[wickedqueenamanda]

A witch!  BURN HER! /JohnCleesebashfiststogether =)

[wickedqueenamanda]

I'm wiccan myself....I was referring to Monty Python & the Holy Grail. You may want to watch some Python, it may help you attain a sense of humor.

[OblivionSilk]

"You may want to watch some monty python, it may help you attain a sense of humour"

Best come back. Ever.

[CynthiaLestrange]

Just because someone is different or a 'witch' or whatever you call them doesn't mean they should be burnt. This should end now, it's not amusing, and whatever you are trying to prove obviously isn't working. Witches are just as human as the rest of us, so leave them be. If she claims she is Christian there is nothing to prove her right or wrong. If her friends made it there isn't a way to prove that right or wrong either, so just believe her and shut up about it, k?

[SuteishiiRoseOfEden]

most women who were burnt as witches back in the day weren't even witches anyway 0.o

[Bananenboy93]

Haha " most of them" ;D

Show me only one !

[SeanAJWilkins]

I thought the die alive thing could be to die but still with some life and a fight in you rather than the give up and die sort of thing, I dunno, there's many interpretations you can have.

[DANNYENRICK]

great again

[belekas01]

it's easy to die alive; when you give up, you die, but you are still alive. (not sure the song is about that)

[silriadys]

I found beautiful this vidéo of Tarja^^ She is one of the best singer in the world.... (^^personal opinion^^)

[Jemalacane]

I love Tarja and her music. But what in the hell is with the stuff around her eyes?

[inutaisho94]

she is suppose to be an ice queen lol^^

[BrokenxXxWings]

you know... i know this is kinda stupid but i heard this song and i had it stuck in my head, and don't get me wrong i love this song. but how else do you die but alive? i mean... "to die alive"? i mean they could have come up with something more morbid than that... great song... but seriously how else do you die? you have to be alive to die... just thinking outloud...

[NightwishLady92]

I think that she wantied to say something like, she is alive, but feel dead. Like you are dissapointed, and don't have feeling like you are alive.

[Cyndane]

the way I interpreted the sing, she is physically alive, but spiritually dead, or something like that. dead in spirit. I think this whole song has to do with her final days in Nightwish and the Tuomas letter aftermath.

[JoviAero]

@Cyndane not about that at all, she said in an interview it's about living life to the fullest to truly live before you die

[marcom2210]

Tarija you so beautiful and jous keep going in new victory and life goes on !!! You are THE BEST !!!

Tarija 4ever

Anita never

[GothicDivine]

lol moron! every song of each artist is made to make money oO

or have u ever seen an artist whos famous with a song for nothing,and not for charity?

she's not after the money ,monkey

[timen1986]

she should have never left/kicked out nightwish

[willaheppu]

the band kicked out her off the band

[Latttisatko]

I would love this song if it just wasnt made to make money

[lenasangel]

i lik her new album it amazin and so is tarja but wot nightwish did to her that was crul she spent nine years with them and there out of order she gave them 2 ys of notice that she was leaving and then they sent her a letter like that they even brang her husband into it i felt so sorry for her wen i watched that press confrince with out her nightwish isnt as good she made nightwish everyone knows that i still like nighwish but there was no need to do that to tarja

[Merymysell]

she's a goddess

[Jemalacane]

She's not a "goddess" but certainly a queen!

[Sableprncs]

I just recently discovered Nightwish and Tarja. When I found out Tarja was no longer with Nightwish I still tried to give Nightwish a chance, although, **This is just MY Opinion** I like Tarjas voice better than Annettes. I think because its a little deeper and more haunting. I have a lot of catching up to do though. I really like Tarjas new album! I only like one song on Nightwishes new album, i think its Amaranth(sp) :)

[Lightbane1]

Awesome been waiting for the video clip to come out for ages. Love this song the video is awesome too

[libudibudauchoo]

love you tarja !!!

[XgamerunlimitedX]

omg the first picture was kinda scary :P

[reindeerride]

What strucks me here is there´s only old NIGHTWISH fans here given comments on this video. My conclousion is, there´re no new Tarja Turunen fans only old NIGHTWISH ones.

[saamiland]

Your English is bullshit.

Chew on that for a while, dick.

[Melissaamorx]

TARJA RULESZ

[xosuperflyox]

omfg I love this girl she is so flipping hawt omfg I'm like drooling

[bibabo01]

And there one thing left to say:

According to the title of your album "I walk alone", i can only say, OH you are not alone,

there is me and there are much more i think who walk with you, its better to say "We walk alone"

[bibabo01]

The last time I heard such an amazing voice was the last time I heard Skin from Skunk Anansie, but you are even better then Skin..

[bibabo01]

Tarja, if you read this, what ever you do, you are simply bigger then Nightwish

I love you forever, you will do your way

[TelariTeri]

Yeah, Tarja, you rule ^^

[TophBeifong2272]

ISN'T SHE LIKE THE BEST SINGER EVER???

[NightDreamer88]

Probably she is,but not everybody are capable to understand and appreciate her.

[TophBeifong2272]

thats what Nightwish did.

[NightDreamer88]

I think they realize very well how much they lost,but they'll never admit it.

But both of them are great nowdays,so let's just enjoy the music.

[TophBeifong2272]

...im not really a fan of the new singer...she just doesnt fit in with the symphonic metal genre...

[NightDreamer88]

Why not?The music itself is symphonic metal,but there is no defined rules,how the voice must sound.I'm not her biggest fan either,but she's Ok.I don't think she ruins the band.

[TophBeifong2272]

because she has the modern rock voice and i guess im used to the classical opera voice. i think her voice is nice, but i like tarja's better. i still like nightwish, especially their song Amaranth. i just think tarja was better.

[NightDreamer88]

Ok,it's your choice.

btw,Amaranth is the only song from DPP that I dislike.

[ATDFXN]

really? ...i also like 7 Days to the Wolves, Eva, and Sahara, but thats not much because i used to like all the songs they had with Tarja.

[NightDreamer88]

Maybe you just need time,to accept their new style.

I also like all the old songs.

[TophBeifong2272]

actually, that wasnt me who posted that comment from ATDFXN that was my sister, who was supposed to be signed into her account TophBeifong2272, but commented from my profile. i think the song sucks =P

[NightDreamer88]

Aham,I understand.

Sisters always cause troubles :-P

[TophBeifong2272]

it was an accident. he shouldn't be signed in on my file.

[TophBeifong2272]

sorry. wrong name. thats my brother's account. but yeah, maybe i do.

[willaheppu]

yes, she is

[blacksa160]

the only i dont like is the melodies it always sounds like she is singing the same song

[NirvanaTante]

I love this song!

[FluessendeUrin]

the only good song, in my opinion. they are just not fast enough for my taste

[bibabo01]

Tarja in Nightwish was fucking amazing, but i don´t like this so much cause she´s not taking the full potential of her brilliant voice, But let´s give her time I think she will be back, and she will be better thenn Nightwish ever was

[EmeFan]

Her voice is so amazin, even tho w/o nightwish

[vaan9292]

tarja is amazing!

[Sapphirepearlz]

Needs more bass.

[hellsingnutcase]

TARJA RULES!!!! her voice is amazing and frankly i think the lyrics of her songs are better than Nightwish's songs

[emilybizarre]

das album is der hammer.... dieses lied natürlich auch.

@ endless compassion: i dont think that you've listened to these sings more than one time, otherwise you'll think in a different way. what did you expect?? it's only tarja, not nightwish!!! so if you dont like her, it's okay, but the please stop telling such crap! nobody forces you to listen to her music.

[MollyPollyMolly]

Lass ihn doch, wenn ers langweilig findet ^^

Er hat ja auch nicht irgendwas im Sinne von "Nightwish" erwähnt, oder?

Na also ^^

Außerdem brauchste ihn ja nich gleich so doof anzumachen. Immerhin hat er doch echt nur ganz höflich seine Meinung gesagt xD

[emilybizarre]

jawoll, und ich habe auch nur meine meinung gesagt. was dich ja wohl nen feuchten dreck angehen dürfte!!!!

[MollyPollyMolly]

dann dürfte es dir ja genau so egal sein, dass ich meine Meinung sage oder? XDD

[emilybizarre]

wir können auch gerne ewig so weiter machen!!!^^ sorry, war wohl etwas harsch

[Melissaamorx]

du reden englisch

[blackirises]

but that's just it. because its only Tarja, not Nightwish, its kind of boring. her voice is beautiful as usual, but the music isn't that interesting. I think the music is a good basic start, but its so bland. It doesn't have all the layers that make it sound complex and exciting like Nightwish does, and I think her voice sounded more powerful to Nightwish music BECAUSE the music was more exciting.

[carolinatje]

I am sorry, But I don't quite agree on that.

You've obviously haven't listened to Tarja's alnum right. The songs are very complex. Take for example Lost Northern Star or Damned and Divine. Tarja's obviously wanted her own style.

And you can hear what her favourite bands are in the songs. In this song you hear back features of Rammstein. Tarja has grown and past on. Nightwish is still stuck singing about childish fairytales, and needed to wright a song with bad words for Tarja.

She hasn't

[blackirises]

I've listened to her album, and I'm not saying she doesn't have good songs, I'm saying the instrumentals comes no where CLOSE to the complexity of nightwish.

nightwish isn't stuck anywhere.  its really obvious to anyone who knows even the littlest bit about music that they've changed drastically with each album. the fatasy songs are BEAUTIFUL but only a small fraction of the total discography.

[GorgonTheMagicMan]

I don't think you are right. You see the only real thing people will remember about Tarja is that she used to be in Nightwish, and it is sad because she is an incredible singer, but this song, although has a very good chorus, sounds like Tuomas wrote this when he was wasted, meaning that he could write a song like this without thinking. You have to realize that one of the big reasons Tarja was such a good singer, is because the music was soo good...and that was Tuomas, Marco, Jukka, and Emppu.

[runefan213]

How is this boring???

This song is great!!

[EndlessCompassion]

It's not a bad album, but it is boring, indeed. I mean, the music is okay, the voice is good, but there's nothing that can make me go "wow!" and keep that song in mind forever. I've been listening to "My winter storm" lately and I just simply can't like, associate the music to something I can focus on, and enjoy. It's pretty plain, nothing fabulous.

[operationqueen]

iam, agree with you is so boring ,why you don'tyou wannna accept that this music is boring is true .

[serenityvampire]

des is son geiles lied...ich will endlich das album haben...

ich finde das richtig hamma *_*

[wangstah2007]

people that are hatin on tarja stop beeing jealous you are not a professional singer

[crazy6omen]

are you from malta... if yes me too :P

[booooyah12345]

This is so boring!

[tarja92]

i so wanna buy this album!!

its addiciting

=p

i have been listening to a few of her songs

from this album

non stop

for a few days

i cant get bored of them

there amazing!!

[onurdarkness]

i liked it too

[KleineJoana]

boring. come on, flame me.

[metalshredder777]

she should stick to the atmospheric stuff. someone buy her a dark sanctuary album and tell ehr to take notes.

[MrNoName96]

I got true respect for this woman

[bunburina]

Kinda boring... but still way better that Ciaran's well. It hurts to say it, but she has no idea how to rock. The voice is aamazing as usual, but she should just accept the fact that rock isn't for her. She should just go for stuff like The Reign where she can display her voice and be amazing.

[123moep123]

can't agree with you.

[SinfulWishes]

Ah, well thats your opinion Bunburina. I cant agree with that remark you made. Tarja Rocks and undoubtly more people like her style music than you think. I've heard her album and its pretty damn awesome. She's already went gold btw! Way to go Tarja!!!!

[aburningveilforme]

Awesome song!!! Yes I Really love it!!!

^^

[liricobarroco]

Wonderful job!!! a beautiful lyrical voice!!

[Jmerrd]

Brilliant <3

[fm1057]

Bad album, only 2 songs are good. Nightwish DDP is better by far!!!!!!!!The Poet And The Pendulum Uffffffff!!! Great song.
