Personally, I love the fact that Nightwish had their Annette phase. Granted her vocals aren't as powerful or operatic as the other two, but the music coming out of DPP and Imaginaerium was mind-blowing! And Annette's vocals matched it perfectly!
Thank you! *high five* Lol. The Anette phase was needed. Don't get me wrong, I loved her and would have been content with her still here. However, seeing as she isn't, I still wouldn't have changed her time with them. Her voice carried them like a canal between the oceans Tarja and Floor. Boooooo!!! Lottie. Lol. Though I will admit, I wish they'd use Floor and bring it back this way a bit. Imaginaerum was kick- ass and I'd love to see them do that style again with Floor. Meeting them this past winter however and seeing EFMB live... gah! Still a homerun.
Ah...Anette era Nightwish. It took me a long time to get used to her different vocal style, but after I stopped trying to compare her and Tarja, I really liked how Tuomas crafted songs to fit her voice. I think she actually came into her own with Imaginareum. And I definitely love this song, because of the emotions within it. I was never into the blame game, but it's true that beauty can come from loss.
TheVixenne In fact. People didn't enjoy Anette enough because of that stupid comparison. Anette was wonderful and she made me be closer to nightwish. Tuomas is just amazing... seriously... Sadly she departed and I'm pretty sure the fans' pressure helped her to take this decision. Anyways now Floor is there and she is also amazing!
+TheVixenne I love Imaginareum, but the vocals were definitely lacking on that album. She's overpowered by the music. She's an incredible singer, just not for symphonic metal.
Holy moly guacamole! I don't know what to say about this song but it sure sounds totally powerful to me, thank you so much nightwish for making this music video about bye bye beautiful
First video and song of Nightwish I ever saw back to 2007. My first reaction : Cool. A female metal band : good vibes and sweet to the eye... Then Marco appeared.
PrinceMarcus William In the name of what discovering Nightwish in 2007 does make me a noob ? I'd be curious to hear your reasons... I already see coming the eternal diatribe "Nightwish without (the so overrated precious) Tarja is crap".
pieckoyt I'm definitely not that type of fan. Met her in 2008 at a Leaves Eyes/Kamelot show in Hollywood. She's extremely nice and appeared to be humbled over her firing. I saw noob because I first heard Fantasmic when I was in highschool 2000.
Annette fue ecepcional en su paso por Nightwish, su interpretación en los temas que para ella fueron escritos fue maravillosa y creo que nadie podría haberlo hecho mejor 🖤🖤🖤
The fact that Nightwish have always had a flower singing for us makes them the greatest symphonic operatic metal band to ever exist to date and they have inspired soooooo many others to their genre ...Thank you Nightwish for all the art you have created!!! ❤❤❤
Para los que hemos seguido a Nigthwish toda la vida , y entendemos lo que están diciendo , es un tema musicalmente brutal y exquisito , como todos sus discos (SI TODOS) , pero la lirica , uuuf papa... un garrote dado con cariño , pero garrote jaja y siempre me gusto Anette, su voz y personalidad son muy entretenidos , y pues Floor otra diosa, esa es la diferencia cuando te gusta el grupo y valoras su trabajo y talentos , y no solo un integrante
Die Stimmen von Marco und Anette sind ein starker Kontrast und das ist es was diese Lieder so interessant machen. Sie ergänzen sich super. Schade das beide nicht mehr zusammen singen.
i first cam across nightwish when i wwatched the film alone in the dark and the son i wish i had a aangel dropped at the end i was aa sleep and i woke upto here the angelic female voice sing and have been hooked on nightwish ever since this band is the reason i got into this style of music
Marta Anette wasn't that great overall. She just didn't go well with the type of music at all. She was too "Pop." like listening to her sing gave Nightwishes music a pop feel to it, and to me I feel that this was the lowest time for them.
Kris Griffin The music itself has been going pop. Heard their latest stuff? It's smothered in pop now. Hell, THIS song is much more metal than the latest stuff.
Kris Griffin Still, Dark passion play is their most sold album, along with imaginarium which might be their best album to this date. Making Anette their lead singer was a bold move, BUT the right move to make.
I mean, it feels like something we shouldn't be listening to/reading, that he's probably ashamed of now, but it's so hard to stop because it's just so raw and real.
@@BassCommunion His and the rest of the bands ass you mean? The decision to excluse Tarja was unanimous. She's a great singer - both back then and now. But i think that there can be no doubt that she neglected the band and lost interest in it, wanting to promote her solo career. She had already announced that the next album with Nightwish would be her last. And then it's no surprise you risk getting kicked. From the information we have available, i actually feel more sorry for the way Anette was kicked.
@Frenzied Unicorn Productions No she wasn't. Let me recap what happened in the last few days for you, since you apparently missed it. The band wanted to bring in a replacement singer for the US tour. This wasn't just because of her being hit by the flu, but also because she was pregnant, and likely couldn't finish the tour anyway. Anette agreed to that. Then she heard it was Floor, and she changed her mind and said "No", because she was afraid Floor would replace her (this is by her own admission btw). Okay, that's what that is. She was afraid of losing her job. That's an understandable fear. But it also puts the band in a tough situation. Then came the night where Anette was rushed to the hospital, and the band asked the audience if they wanted to have the concert anyway with the Kamelot-singers. The audience agreed, and the concert was played. Anette then heard they played the concert anyway instead of cancelling it, and decided to publicly critisise the band on her blog for that decision. That's when they decided "That's it" and fired her. Yes, there were things that led up to everything i just described here. That's all gonna be just word against word. But you're basically implying that the entire band besides her are just arseholes. Don't get me wrong, i don't think this situation was handled particularlt well by either party - and it's clear they weren't fond of one-another even leading up to the breakup. But honestly, it's rather ignorant to believe that this is all just down to "Toumas being bad at communication".
All hale the REAL TRUE QUEEN 👑 of Nightwish and of ALL FEMALE SYMPHONIC METAL SINGERS!!!!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!!!!😀👍👍👍👍🤘
As a new fan and old man I might add, I absolutely love Floor, Tarja and Annette. their voices seem to compliment the music as well as make their distinctive marks with each song. I think they are HOT as hell probably because their voices are so great...I can't choose a leader.
@@tiamod No, but I'd like people to use the right terms. Your thinking of metal is a small niche subgroup of metal called deathmetal. in general though, metal is faster and harder hitting than rock.
LYRICS Finally the hills are without eyes They are tired of painting a dead man`s face red With their own blood They used to love having so much to lose Blink your eyes just once and see everything in ruins Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful Jacob`s ghost for the girl in white Blindfold for the blind Dead siblings walking the dying earth Noose around a choking heart Eternity torn apart Slow toll now the funeral bells I need to die to feel alive? Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful It`s not the tree that forsakes the flower But the flower that forsakes the tree Someday I`ll learn to love these scars Still fresh from the red-hot blade of your words How blind can you be, don`t you see That the gambler lost all he does not have Did you ever hear what I told you Did you ever read what I wrote you Did you ever listen to what we played Did you ever let in what the world said Did we get this far just to feel your hate Did we play to become only pawns in the game How blind can you be, don`t you see You chose the long road but we`ll be waiting Bye bye beautiful
Great song:) And Marco, the second best singer Nightwish has ever had! lol I love Marco's voice, he's a great musician and songwriter, he kicks ass!!! Marco is so good he could be the lead vocalist in any other band! But, when you have Floor Jansen in the band, being second fiddle on vocals isn't a knock lol Long live Nightiwish, and all who had the privileged of being a member:)
He has absolutely stellar high pitch sound but hearing you saying something like that makes me want to respond, that it might open up your eyes a bit if you widened your search beyond this genre to find the real virtuosos. If not wanting to go too far from metal, Jeff Buckley (f.ex. "Grace") and Chris Cornell (f.ex. "Steel Rain") would be good guys to start from. Sadly, neither are no longer with us in a physical form..
I remember this was the 1st video I watched from Nightwish and I thought "oh, an all-girls metal band, cool :D" then Marco appeared and the rest of the guys and I was like "wait... what?!" xD
