      Tarja issues in Nightwish were mainly about that she wanted private dressing room and help to change her outfits .
      Here Tarja uses white dress and white mic ... if you view old Nightwish clips with Tarja , you will notice the mic is always same color than her dress and she did change dresses between songs ... that was one of the biggest friction between her and some other band members .
      She was voted out from Nightwish , by board of directors , Tuomas , Jukka and Marko ... the hell you read about after that , was caused by media going after Tuomas .

    • @MacZussie
      @MacZussie 3 года назад

      Imagine Tuomas as a shy, introvert Finn, who was able to delve so deep into (his) emotions, he even may have appeared as a weirdo to some ppl including Tarja.
      Connecting the dots, it seems that he developed certain feelings to that footloose woman, who was so close to him for many years. Yet it turned out to become a unrequited love theme. Many songs of the Tarja era seem like his mindgames about this theme just from different angles with strong autobiographical characteritics that means he wrote down his very own feelings, that he was confronted with, in many of his songs. After Tarja met her husband Marco Cabuli in 2003, Tuomas' dreamed relationship evolved into a dramatic climax, ending with "The Poet and the Pendulum", which he needed to settle his respective feelings once and for all and became perceptive e.g. for a new love before he met his wife Johanna Kurkela in 2009. Of course the end of Tarja's era/emotions also affected his songwriting topics. From now he was able to dig into other realms like circus or science.
      P.S. After Tarja, more detailed Marco Cabuli, was stating that he/she is willing to dump Nightwish for a more profitable solo career after the next album, Tuomas & the band decided to dismiss them beforehand, because Tuomas could not longer write songs for Tarja...btw. if you ever watch the documentary of "End of an Era" DVD, you will notice how much Tuomas was pissed off when Marco Cabuli was around, which was literally every second Tarja was with them, but on stage. Conclusion: The smiling returned to Tuomas' face with Johanna back-stage and Floor on-stage.

    Your reaction proves what I have been saying all along - Tarja is a true chameleon in the classical dimension of singing. I have lost the count on how many vocal experts classified her as something different and changed back and forth - that's because she too, just like Floor, IS versatile - but in a different way which only someone mature enough would grasp.

      You're right! Inspite of having impressive ease in very high registers, Tarja always carries a Lot of height and darkness in her whole tone, even up to its' higher parts! On the other hand, specially in recent years her Lower registers improved so much (I think pregnancy may have had some physical impact that helped on that)... An Amazing singer who isn't afraid of experimenting with her voice on her heavy rock/metal sound, indeed! Cheers! \m/ \m/

      @@soundslikeblue it may help in certain degree but I think the main reason was she determined to develope this dark color of her voice. She constantly lowered the larynx in her low notes to create this tone. Her natural voice is not that dark. U can hear her singing "you and I". It's definitely a stylistic choice to go darker and chestier.

    She has a really dark and deep tone that just touches my soul. I LOVE Floor, and I think she's perfect for NW nowadays. But it's really hard to feel the old songs as deep as when Tarja sung them. You should check out Deep Silent Complete, Two for Tragedy and Sleeping Sun (ballads) and Fantasmic, Stargazers and 10th Man Down (faster tracks). I personally think the whole "who's better" discussion is stupid and pointless. They are all amazing singers, Tarja, Anette and Floor, unique and very good at what they do. We are actually lucky to have had them all.

    Why did she leave? She had a mutual agreement with the guys that she would leave after one more album, but mid-tour the guys secretly decide that they will fire her prematurely, and make decision 9 months prior to the last show - lying to her face every day till then. Now you will hear many sides and stories over why there was tension, drama, greed, corruption, love - but neither will justify to cowardly lie to a person you've known since childhood and them humiliate her with an Open Letter, with the whole world watching from front-row.

    Fantastic Charlie! Tarja was the reason that I became a Nightwish fan in the early 2000's. I absolutely loved the contrast of her voice with their style of music - it was really a novelty at that time. In spite of the issues that she had with the band leading up to her leaving in 2005, I have loved her singing in Nightwish and as a solo act as well. In fact on this tour she had brilliantly put together an amazing group of musicians, especially the cellist, and as we can see and hear in this performance she has still one of the best voices in rock/metal. I am so happy that you liked her so much 🤘🤘❤️

    I believe Tarja is a multi soprano. After she studied opera in Germany, her voice techniques changes, and in my opinion she has also become more versatile during the year. Something she was more or less forced to, because her only doing opera style, didn't give her that career she dreamed of. I believe she enjoys her solo career, not being forced to work within a band - she says that in different conversations, and her solo stuff is actually quite impressive.

      She was always versatile but Nightwish wasn't, early on. They needed to have a recognizable sound. Their first four albums are closely in the same mold. The fifth, the last with Tarja, is a bit more relaxed and open -- they could afford it by then. And the rest is history. The early history only makes me respect Tuomas' composer craftmanship even more. He kept it tight when the band needed it to make it.

Tarja wanted to make her decision public and prepare fans for the change of vocalist, but the band convinced her not to make it public until the recording of a next album after "Once". It turns out that, unlike agreed, the group planned and wrote a letter of resignation to Tarja without her knowing it. At the end of the show "End of an Era", the band delivered the letter to Tarja, with the recommendation that she should not read it at that time. The following day that same letter was published on the band's website. In short, the band accused Tarja of being a diva and also criticized her husband, Marcelo. Tarja's dismissal was completely unnecessary. She had already told the group, approximately 2 years in advance, that she would leave the band. It seems to me that the group tried to punish her for that decision by launching a public letter with attacks on her and her husband. If any differences were unbearable, it would be enough to end the contract in a civilized manner, as any mature person does. However, the band preferred to plan and write the letter without Tarja knowing it, they had the coldness to record the last show with her (End of an Era concert), deliver what was written to her at the end of the concert, recommend that she not read at that moment, and publish the content of the letter the next day on band website. Because of that the band lost a lot of fans. Many of my friends, for example, stopped listening to Nightwish at the time. For me, the letter says more about the band than about Tarja. After the accusations made by the band, Tarja's husband came out in defense of her. He received, answered and made available on the internet more than 130 answers to questions sent by fans from all over the world. Tarja also wrote a public letter responding to the group. In it, she did not attack the band. In short she said she was shocked and sad, and said that she did not recognize herself in the description that the band made of her. Particularly, I believe in Tarja's version. The band used to treat Tarja very bad. For example, she was attacked once, in the middle of the show, and the band did nothing. At the ocasion, a crazy guy invaded the stage and tried to abuse Tarja, but the band continued playing as if nothing was happening. They also did nothing in the backstage. Tarja was conforted by Marcelo at the time, a person the group just had known. Incidentally, Anette, the second vocalist, was also fired. She was pregnant, was sick during the tour, and then the group decided to replace her with Floor.

    The lady joins the band in her teens. Grows, matures, falls in love, marrys. Yep. Of course her relationship to the band changed. She a married woman does not want to change clothes with the boys? Thinks traveling in the same bus and plane is problematic? If true, she was right. It would not be appropriate. Costume changes especially dramatic ones do require help to be done quick. Increase budgets for creating a full sensory experience for the audience is brilliant. But how much would young single men understand that? They may have been literal children together but they do grow up.
    How much did she want out of the band forever or just to take time for a solo album and tour. To express herself through different styles and yes as a grown adult have creative control. She was no longer the shy introverted teen/early 20 something doubting herself. She had grown as an artist and performer. Like they all did. No doubt nowadays they would handle things in a more amicable fashion. They could certainly taken some time and then have the courtesy to talk to talk to her and her manager face to face and let her know when she was over the flu, that they would let her out of her contract so she could do her solo work. Leaving the door open in a few years to come back for another album and tour. Shouda , woulda, coulda but didn't.
    If they have made peace and are happy, lets be happy for them.
    Then and now the gift of the music survives.

    You should really react to more of Tarja's stuff, especially Nightwish era. I think it helps appreciate the contrast between the two. While I prefer Tarja I think seeing both of them helps appreciate the artistic choices Floor makes in her covering Nightwish eras before her.
    Also Tarja's " Passion and the Opera " --- " Swan Heart " --- " Gethsemane " --- " Ghost Love Score " ---- " The Siren " ----- "Creek Mary's Blood " are all GORGEOUS for different reasons. Even if you're just listening for yourself.

    Tarja is a Spinto soprano, she is too dark to be a lyric and not dark and powerful enough to be a dramatic, she sits in between, she said years ago she was a light lyric and i burst out laughing, her dark, deep tone is as far from being light lyric than her from ever returning to Nightwish,
    She is a textbook Spinto Soprano with a 4 octave overall range, even though, her fully supported range is a tad shorter.

Being an old song orginally from 1999, it shows that Tarja is a natural soprano. Just listen to her other early work. She discovered and developed her chest voice later. Just listen to her with Angra and Sergio Leone. At one point she sounds just like a male tenor.

    Love your reactions!
    I like your take on the different singers. This one just goes to show Tarja and Floor are both great, just different. This and something you said a while back about the decline of classical singing. This might make an interesting topic for you to cover sometime in some forum.
    What would be the classical singer interest in doing a orchestra scored version of say Poet or GSOT? I don’t mean doing it in a classical style, But as a modern take. We can see Tarja and Floor handle GLS with different interpretations. Imagine, someone orchestrating one of the “Long Three” for Orchestra. Imagine a tenor or baritone doing the Marco vocals from Dark Passion Play without the growls and weaving in and out around a soprano or Mezzo(my choice) more in a musical theater style (Don’t know the technical name). They would not be in classical style except in certain parts but singing more like Floor or Tarja. I think a piece like this would be great for a place like Saratoga or Tanglewood. All that said I bet the sound engineering would be tricky.
    How about some fun. Have a sound guy drop out Marco (sorry for the sacrilege..) and see what a tenor or baritone would do to fill the spot. Say any tenor named Charlie…. I have no clue what the copyright issue would be with that though.

    • @BigBrainSinger
      @BigBrainSinger  3 года назад +1

      Actually, as an artist I've begun a foray into the exact same thing you're talking about.
      Funnily enough, my vocal range is very similar to Marko's, so I've begun studying Finnish diction in hopes of doing a few covers of his songs. I'm a classical singer through and through, so this is definitely something I'd call experimentation. The next step for me is definitely finding the right composer to make that cover/modern classical adaptation work. But you and I, LR, have a lot of common curiosity here 😁

    Please make reaction to Diana Ankudinova - the most unique young talented singer.
    One of my favourite things to find and enjoy is music that gives me chills and goosebumps. I was cruising RUclips recently and discovered a Russian talent show contestant that did just that, with one of the best, most unique voices I've heard in many years. Her delivery was nothing short of magical and I searched out more and more and more, and...more chills.
    I was stunned to find that the first performance I heard was when she was 14!!!! She's now 17 and still developing. She sings in Russian, French, English and Arabic.
    The covers she performed on that show are very popular on RUclips. Many RUclipsrs publish reactions on these performances, which include the ethnic song "River" (in a new musical arrangement), "Blizzard", "Wicked Game", "Human", "Derniere Danse", "Helwa Ya Baladi" and others.
    Please react to one of Diana's songs and I promise she will surprise you.

    But you know now they had 2 other signers and Tarja was the first one, the one that define their style.
    Of course it evolve though the years, but what made Nightwish Nightwish at first?
    For me the answer is "Wishmaster".
    Dont try to find the Floor version, this song belong to Tarja. They are not play it again, or few, and Im not sure about the reason, maybe simply because they just played it just too much.
    So, if you want to see Tarja in her element with Nightwish, then react to "Nightwish - Wishmaster (Live)" with Tarja (the version with 9,6M views).
