  • Concert in San Diego. Octobert 6th 2012. Audio distorts with the drums. I was too close to the stage. Floor sounds 500% better live than in these YT vids. This will be up until someone uploads a clearer vid.

    Wow, I just realized that she performed this song so admirably while all the time reading the lyrics taped to front monitors !
    Because this song is only performed when a Brueland family member is in the audience, she obviously had no time to learn the lyrics, yet she managed everything like a true pro.
    Dankjewel Floor, you're phenomenal !

      She has a hypnotic presence. I really hope they release all the different live songs one day in official form (the ones they don't play in concert disc setlists). The camera mic distorted with the drum amps so I want to really hear a clean version one day.

    Tuomas has evolved as a songwriter. When Tarja left I think they took advantage of not having to do the same type of songs. Dark Passion Play showed Anette's versatility. Imaginaerum is a full on concept album. Very ambitious. It was a risky move, the easiest thing would've been to get another opera singer, but I must say, musically they have done well so far. :)

    Nightcrawl6 , I heard Tarja live back in 2004 with Nightwish, and as a solo artist in 2012 (in a concert as part of her "What Lies Beneath" Tour), and I must say that She sounded much better in 2012 than in 2004, BUT, both times she sounded amazing... There's no need to tell Lies about Tarja professional work, even if you prefer Floor's style...
    Every music lover who cares more about the music than about the stupid fans fights, knows that Tarja was always a great live singer, and a lot of times she sounds even better Live than on the albuns... And of course Floor is an amazing singer too (I follow her work since After Forever days...), plus it seems they are both long time friends.

    • @mofrakker
      @mofrakker  10 лет назад +3

      Nightwish's strength has been to make the best use of the talent it has. Tarja's amazing lyrical style helped shaped their sound. Nettie's theater background and mid range vocals (and speed) allowed them to branch out into other styles. Floor's incredible diversity will allow Tuomas more creative space to write material with the knowledge that either heavy or lyrical it can be interpreted properly onstage. Metal is such an underdog right now, that fan bickering does very little. The fact that as you say, Floor and Tarja remain friends says a lot about their quality. :)

    • @ThyFacelessOne
      @ThyFacelessOne 7 лет назад +2

      Tarja has no problem with anyone in the band, except Tuomas and Evo (the manager) and Jukka, but Emppu, Marko and FLoor are okay with her.
      Because the masterminds of the open letter were Tuomas, who may be a great composer, but a detestable man, and Evo is anyway almost universally hated by even die-hard fans, as he is known for flirting with and wanting all girl fans, and Jukka also loved money immensely, and was greedy.

    I agree with you. It depends really on the type of sound some fans prefer. People acustomed to hearing Tarja's lyrical voice will reject whomever they choose to replace. I love all their stuff, and the last two albums have been among their best, and adventurous. Floor has brought her passion and versatility, Nettie had the warmth, the strong timbre for belting and her voice was clear on the faster songs. Tarja was the epic voice that established the band. They all rocked.

    Although Tarja is a full soprano and has an extraordinary voice which has identified the Nightwish sound for a decade. Floor is one of the most versatile singers in the industry, she can sing soprano, rock, metal, jazz, can scream and even growl if need be. Has been in 3 bands, numerous collaborations, done vocals for a Final Fantasy video game, all within 13 years prior to joining the Nightwish tour. Certainly not an overnight sensation, but a respected veteran.

    She learned most of the songs on the plane ride, there are about 13 to 14 songs. As I mentioned I don't think she was actually reading lyrics. Lighting does not help.

    Yes, ReVamp is her main focus. She is accustomed to writing her own lyrics and having a creative input. That would be difficult in Nightwish. Unless she stays in both bands (like Marco).

    Well, she was in RV after AF broke-up. She has had side projects such as collaborations with different artists. She writes and tours for ReVamp.

Any official decisions would be made during 2014, when NW goes back to rehearsals.

    She is not the permanent singer. Nor is she meant to sound like either like T or A. They urgently needed a replacement and they were damn lucky to get a vocalist as versatile and driven as Floor. The only other option was to cancel the tour in the west. It's not confusing at all to anyone who has actually seen them recently. Live, not on youtube vids that is. :)

    I can fully understand why many say Tarja was the best. She was in the band since it's conception and there for 9 years. The music was based around her singing style, so it was identified by her beautiful lyrical voice. Since her departure, the band has evolved, which is not necessarily bad. Their sound has rotated between really melodical and the really heavy. In the end Nightwish has always been a hybrid of different elements and always exciting. :)

    Also, you haven't really lived until you see her live. Videos and CD's don't do her justice.
    I actually still have the picture of me and her framed. I had been off stage for 2 hours and look like shit. She had just walked off and looked beautiful.

    Her tecnique is great. You can see her wide open throat in the high notes. Maybe that's why somebody said she was struggling. The did it really good.
