In 2003, first time Nightwish played on USA, Tuomas and Tarja met Marc Brueland, a Nightwish fan from San Diego, who was dying with cancer and, in that concert, in September 2003, Tarja sung "Walking in the Air" especially for Marc. It was also given to Marc a T-shirt saying "Angels fall first" with Tarja's image on it (clearly an emotional moment for Tuomas and Tarja at the time, there is a video of that performance: ruclips.net/video/gzBOPcV4Uj0/видео.html) On October 2003 Marc died, and Tarja's mother was also battling cancer at the same time and ended up dying too. Tarja did this as an homage, as a sensitive person she is (and probably because she can also relate to that pain).
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!!!!!!😀👍👍👍👍🤘
She is amazing, but is nothing without Tuomas Poetry and Music. Even, all those songs without her are sad. Floor is nice, but galaxies away from this beauty.

Calling this "cruel" just shows You clearly have No idea of the meaning of this song to Tarja as well. She did this as an homage, as a sensitive person she is.
She shouldn't perform this song, this song was written for Tuomas' soulmate, and it only belongs o him, in fact Nightwish only performs it when the Brueland family is present. This is just disrespectful.
David Turner I'm pretty sure Tarja didn't mean to be disrespectful, after all she knew Marc and his family too and she's definitely aware of the story behind the song. But I do agree that it should be performed by Nightwish when the Bruelands are present, just the way Tuomas wants it to. Higher than hope surely means a lot to him.
+David Turner I agree with you, I can't feel her anymore, like she's not sincere, like she does not feel herself in the song anymore and is singing it just because... is not hers to sing. Anyhow I think "soulmate" is not the word, but yes, they had an special friendship; and, as you, I find this quite disrespectful...
David Turner I absolutely agree with you mate.She sings rlly well but ever since they went separate ways she started being such a bitch to them.She performs their songs without asking them,even the rlly personal ones Tuomas wrote.She's being such a bitch when she does that,her former bandmates atleast respect her cant say she respects them tho.

Best voice Nightwish ever had! ❤️
Beautiful song and fantastic voice
That's breathtaking... It's so beautiful. And her voice is amazing as always!
Essa versão ficou mais triste ainda....emocionante♡♡♡
Só ela mesma pra cantar essa canção e mais ninguém!!!
Saudades do nightwish com certeza♡♡♡♡
She's amazing
Simply wonderful!!
Essa mulher me fascina

Tarja Turunen 🤘🏻🧜🏻♀️
@astrolifter Give a description for "sucks"?
Лучшее вокальное исполнение, но электрогитары с железом не хватило.
Clapping is evil
@MiaZeklos Ok, here voice is awesome as usual, I don't think her band compares to that of Nightwish. I should have been more specific..
@jhjkhkjkjhjkhkjk
так обычная ж HD-камера)
Откуда русские берут такие камеры...)
I've wondered the same thing looking up videos of Баль Вампиров и Призрак Оперы. German cameras have nothing on those.
just read the story of this song, damn that's pretty cruel that she's singing it.
portishphonic Where can I read the story? 😯
there is not a cruel bone in her body
she sings a lot of nightwish songs and only means to honor them for their beauty...
this song calls for honesty and forthright conduct is far less than they showed Tarja...she sings it so magically..astounding

I agree. She should not sing this song with a smile.

+Demian Nox how can you know what she feels when singing it? And Nw also played this song after all that happened and the Bruelands were not there.

She sings "acapella".... this group is so...nothing
the are the creme of the creme of the European and american metal professionals..please do some research before making such unfounded statements
SUCKS WITHOUT NIGHTWISH
