settlist is really poor.. although i wouldn't like to hear her singing stargazers or sth.. maybe it's best she doesn't sing the first 3 after all (they're my favourite too). but i understand you wanted sth remarkable. but you must have been enjoying her outfit, though, so it's not that bad ;)

Ha, ha , high five, sis ;)

@popas7 And by the way, at lots of concerts there are some people yelling curses (fuck you, you suck etc.), and they are also sing extremely loud in a false voice when they are drunk, but despite all of this, I have never ever seen Simone from Epica, Tarja Turunen, Sharon den Adel from WT or any other guys leaving the stage just because of these things. One thing' s sure, Anette doesn' t get the nerve for what it takes to be critised.

@oceansoul0403 you got it ritght brother

Well if you dont like Anette, then why did you go to the gig?

[MrBushman]

Seem to remember before the new singer (Anette) was announced and i browsed the nightwish videos, the standard comment (on Tarja) was:

1. She can't hit a note live, perhaps on a good day

2. You can't hear a word she singing, due to the accent.

3. What's up with the yellow mic

4. She dances ridiculous, she shouldn't move

5. Operasinger, i thought this was metal, how gay

Maybe you are the same people? :)

i love tarja's voice but they way Anette drives the crowd is amazing...i've never saw tarja do such a thing.....to me tarja just went, sing the songs and fuck the crowd.....anyways i love nightwish.....but i feel bad that i just found out about them about six months ago.....

Leave it to Nightwish to decide what "essential Nightwish" is. ;)

@oceansoul040

#1. She didn't leave the stage cause of the cursing only, her astma set in and she couldn't come up with a note other then saying she was sorry and leave.¨

#2. Tarja LEFT the stage that time and didn't come back....

Sure, it's not the same... but not being able to sing because of your throat being clogged up isn't something to take lightly... If you cannot sing the songs because your windpipe is clogged, would you still sing them and risk serious damage to your health??

I see that the other people are pretty excited! You are just stuck with Tarja! And you know, they don't give a fuck whether you like them or not!

booooooooring

[oceansoul0403]

@martinahrovat Hahahahahahhaa! Even Tarja did sing Stargazers a few times, it is such a difficult song on guitar, piano, stings and vocal! And the thing about Anette is that she doesn' t have a clear character on stage, and her dressing style doesn' t fit for music! And once I saw that she cried at a concert because she heard the word of some haters. Come on, Tarja was once attacked on the stage, but then she stood up, and continue singing as if nothing happened!
