The band used to be a big part of my growing up. A week ago I spontaneously listened to some old Nightwish albums, for the first time in 5 years, and felt so much nostalgia. What a coincidence that I remembered them just in time to witness this beautiful moment :) Marco and Tarja! :)
Dikajee_Official I do that too! But I’ll stars on Christmas Weekend this year. And on New Year’s Eve: Season 4 of Black Mirror! #ForeverAloneGuy #IWalkAlone
Wow, this is such an emotional performance! Thank you for the upload, Joonas :) Tarja has grown so much as a person and performer! I am proud to see her and Marco together on one stage again! Christmas peace & beauty!
Tarja looks beautiful with the new tattoo! And I hope this meeting brings some hope of Tarja singing again with Nightwish. A special participation on a world tour, perhaps? I think it's time to move on and forget the past. It would be really amazing to see the original lineup again -- especially to me, who didn't have the opportunity to see them live with Tarja. Although I really adore Floor, I still miss the old Nightwish and I'm sure a lot of people also do.
+Ligeia Noire "They both grew and matured a lot." Yes, I hear that Marco even gave up the bottle. Tarja talked about this in an interview, speaking of "big changes in his life" and how he was "not the same person". Anyway, I applaud Marco for conquering his addiction. That's a noble step he's taken. Perhaps he can set an example for tuomas to follow, before it becomes too late.
Espero que algún día se pueda dar el Nightwish feat Tarja aunque sea en algunas canciones, sería un sueño para los que los seguimos de hace tantos años.
OMG nightwish !!!!!!!!! This is nightwish i can't believe my eyes !!!!! Please make more nightwish music! You dont know how powerfull you are together!
The manager of Raskasta Joulua ("Heavy Christmas") tour invited Tarja and she was happy to join them, but so far I've not seen them tell why she was invited. It was a very good idea anyway - it's so nice to see Tarja and Marco in good terms, hugging each other warmly.
Tarja sounds good here and I suppose it's nice to see them perform together one last time for old time sake, but I'd really like to see her work with some better male talent. For example, like she did with Phantom of the Opera on Act I. Diego Valdez was quite good actually. I liked to hear her paired up with male vocalist like him or maybe someone like Mike Geier. Macro is more of a Bass player that happens to sing a little and is getting long in the tooth and you can hear it in his voice. Therefore performances like this are really only good for nostalgia. Pair her up with a male vocalist who is comparable to her talent wise, then you'd have something really worthwhile.
+prisPrisca15 Indeed Fabio is fantastic as the phantom and him and her together are the best. +Legume666 Absolutely, this just isn't the song for his voice. Granted there were some old nightwish songs where the 2 of them worked good together, but on this song, it just isn't happening. I said this on the nightwish forums and they all just about wanted to lynch me.
