Classic Live performance of Sleeping Sun - Norway - Oslo 2003

This is one of the BEST Nightwish performances from their Century Child Tour. They sounded more power-metal before the Once Album in 2004, but this is one of their Classic Ballads that Tarja always knows how to sing in so many different and beautiful ways (She actually created several different aproaches to this song since it was firstly recorded in 1998, with an almost mezzo-soprano timbre, always very dark, then she re-recorded the song in 2005, mixing the more operatic vocals in the chorus with a more soft singing style in the verses between the chorus, and also a slower tempo. When it comes to live performances, she also sings in both ways, and even creates new different arrangements to fit the music ).

I recently uploaded what, in my opinion, is the Best Live Version of Sacrament of Wilderness by Nightwish. Don't miss it! ;)

Thank you for watching my videos!

  • Oh thanks very much! :)

    Don't need to apologize, your english seems to be correct, and even if it wasn't, there's no problem at all! The only problem is when people are not polite, (and for those, I delete the comments).

  • uwielbiam ją

  • This performance is wonderful !!

    Personally I prefer the Oceanborn version, especially the way Taja sang. She sang more classic ,straight, powerful and stable, and did not "overdecorate" her voice which I find sometimes annoying.

    Thanks for the upload
