Sleeping Sun in a Folk style is surprisingly amazing! The arrangement, so unique. I never get tired of listen Tarja's voice, no mater what she's singing (specially NW songs).
You're right!
Tarja's voice tone is just Beautifull and she sung in such a delicate way on Sleeping Sun... Amazing!
Plus, she really has got such a humble atittude, specially towards classical music.
Cheers! \m/ \m/
Yes right.
Tarja can sing Sleeping Sun any way she wants because she just knows how to do it. Love from Brazil
Right.
Longer than I would like to admit ago, I was an exchange student to Kuopio's music school. Tarja's school and mine used to do a lot of stuff together e.g. sing and perform at each other's schools etc. Tarja was in the grade below me but these are very small schools so everyone knew everyone else fairly well. This was looooong before she got famous. She was then and is now one of the absolute nicest people you could ever hope to meet and she has an absolute gift for speaking other languages. One of the things I really admire about her is that fame hasn't changed who she is as a person. She is still humble and sweet just like she was all those years ago before she got famous.
Wow - did not see that Sleeping Sun coming until she actually started singing the song! A peculiar twist on that song that I would never have imagined, but so enjoyable! Thank you Seagulls and Tarja! Now all there is to do is to watch those songs again...
It was beyond epic !!!
@@larryzigler6812 Definitely!
@@darkness_visible Was not ready for that exquisite ending !!!!
Love Tarja,so beautiful and the voice of an angel!
25:35 "Sleeping Sun."
I was loving the arrangement... and then the transition in the middle... hah, hah! Yeah that was fun.
Nice. Sleeping Sun is my favorite Nightwish song. I think I like this one just as much as the original. :D
Finland is full of talent. I love listening to you Seagulls Nest. You guys rock.
I'm always completely full of goose pumps when Tarja sings. She got me 23 years ago, and I think now more than ever. Awesome episode, and awesome songs. Thank you Seagulls and thank you always so lovely and wonderful Tarja ❤️
But could someone please tell me if this is misinformation? I recall hearing that the name Steve'n'Seagulls came from Wishmaster misheard lyrics version?
Don't know, but, if that's the case, they must have at least consider Hard Porn before that.
As far as I know it is a play of words on the name of Steven Seagal.All right, the Major proved me wrong and the Heavy Quiz of the Sauna revealed the true story: the name really and truly comes from the Seagulls.
Omg! Tarja should collaborate with these guys for more songs! They are amazing! 🥰
Yes a album would be fantastic !!!!!
YES TO THIS!!!! Steve n Seaguls make her an album!!!!
@@rottenkreature1041 Would add to her vast brilliant diverse collection of albums !!!
Would like to see Max in overalls playing the cello with the too !!! 💘💘💘
An album of Finnish tango and folk cover arrangements would be BRILLIANT. Tarja and the Gulls both get the old-school rustic romantic charm of that kind of music, and I'm 100% they'd blow our socks off.
Ha ha ha didn't expect that kind of version of "Sleeping Sun", but it sounds so so amazing and fun
Agree!!
I say it was quite a lot better than the original even. Amazing!
yep, this song has totally written for Tarjas amazing voice , very interesting version, proud to be Estonian and share culture with this magical land of Finland :)
Hello My husband is half Half Finish and we live here at Helsinki and i'm from Argentina;Tarja has been such an inspiration human being since My teenage just to Say thanks for everything That she helped with her voice to heal at those time;Thanks music Angel and many things more that i would love to share ..But how and when i can meet her?l!I LOVE Finland and all this scandinavisn forest such a beautifull country it is and She said the same of Argentina because she lived years there too. Wonderfull how music can inspire and exchange culture Made us understand how amazing is to Focus at the beautifull of life and one human family beyong any borders;Even in hard times like pandemia. With love 🌈🙏💖
Bloody Hell. What a performance to finish with.
Thanks so much lads and all your absolutely brilliant guests.
🤘🍀
That end was to die for !!!!!!! 💖💖💖💖
Still a goddess. End of story.
Tarja...best Woman Voice . . .ever !
Nobody can sing sleeping sun and Phantom of the Opera like Tarja
And dozens of other songs.
Right.
There is NO ONE in the world who can sing Sleeping song like her. Versatility, vocal strength, no need of screaming, passion. I love it.
💘
I agree, 100% It still sends me to the moon after all these years.
@@dianarios4426 Just the moon ? I'm passing Pluto right now !!!! 💘
When I hear Tarja, I go beyond galaxies. She's wonderfull
@@brunainamonico3471 yes beyond time and space !!!!
Tarja is gorgeous
Of course
I loved every second of this episode,i like the interview, the songs different but fantastic sung from Tarja and the races also.
What a lady? Always herself with humour and that great smile, she enjoyed every minute.
Thank you very much for calling her.
You are fantastic also!!!
💘
When she won the rowing competition, they should have named her a true 'Airon' maiden.
Hahaha! Yes!!
Airo (Finnish) = oar (English).
@@Aurinkohirvi Working with language history, I just wanted to mention the fun fact that Finnish 'airo' and English 'oar' are cognates and thus of course fundamentally the very same word - in this case it was borrowed into Proto-Finnic from Proto-Germanic (from original Proto-Germanic *airō), just like the Finnish words 'taika' (the English cognate being "token") and 'pelto' (the English cognate being "field", where the /p/ in Finnish shows that that loan occurred before the /p/ > /f/ shift happened in Germanic ('Grimm's Law')) etc. The forms are of course similar, so I assume that many Finns have noticed the similarity. I find the early language contact between the ancestors of the Finns and the ancestors of the modern Germanic peoples to be quite fascinating.
@@darkness_visible Another example of the nature of Finnish language as a deep freezer of Proto-Germanic words is *kuningas, Proto-Germanic *kuningaz, which evolved into German König, English king and Swedish kung later elsewhere. Finns still use the original word in almost the original form.
@@darkness_visible Yeah, you're right, I have a list of Proto-Germanic loanwords in Finnish. That's the early Iron Age. Obviously trade was well established: lots of trade and seafaring loanwords, domesticated animals and plants names, new ideas loanwords. Many of the words are still in use. I did not remember if "airo" was one of the words, but sure enough noticed the similar root though.
I suppose if one studies Germanic or Finnic languages, this Proto-Germanic and Finnic contact is an important one, preserving so many loanwords.
I'm not a linguist, and actually I have very little faith to paleolinguistics able to explain much about the prehistory. Having followed the linguists' discussion and attempts to explain prehistory, I see decades of continuous failures. And even now, when one is supposed to know more than in the previous decades, it's hard to find a fistful of linguists who agree. I see it this way: studying prehistory archeology and genetics are much more important ones. No offence meant.
Linguistics use Proto-Germanic loanwords explaining the relations of Baltic Finnic languages (or dialects) during the Iron Age. Sure, that's an interesting topic. What I find even more interesting topic is the era of Nordic Bronze Age (aka Scandinavian Bronze Age) Culture. Also Finland's coasts and (despite the name) the Baltic Peninsula coasts were part of that culture. Suggested language for the Nordic Bronze Age Culture is Proto-Indo-European. However the Proto-Indo-European dialect group Finnic languages were in contact with, is the Indo-Iranian group, the Satem-languages! So apparently Baltic Peninsula and Finland saw a language change between late Bronze Age and early Iron Age.
Omg!!! This is so good!!! The first song already brought tears to my eyes! Every song is so well played and so good to hear you guys speaking Finnish! 😍😍😍
Damn, that version of Sleeping Sun is pure gold. Not surprised though.
How this guys are able to invite so amazing artists for singing with them??? Timo Kotipelto, Noora Louhimo, Tarja Turunen? What's more!
This woman is amazing
Amazing songs and Tarja singing those with her extremely beautiful voice ! It was also very nice to see how lively and cheerful this girl from North Karelia (region where I have also born). Thank You for all of You. Enjoy your Midsummer ☀️☺️🥰
TARJA is a precious gem for the world 💘
The Sleeping sun version is really funny and nice!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thank you, you make my wish became truth !
It's the best Sleeping sun cover ever made yet. Wish to hear entire album of covers with Steve seaguls's arrangements and Tarja's voice
They sound great together! I’d listen to this all day.
Excellent episode, Tarja's incredible voice combines perfectly with your great music. Thanks for that first season!
Se ve extremadamente feliz! Tarja definitivamente está en una etapa de su vida en la que esta consagrada, no solo en el ámbito musical, también como persona... Extraordinarios músicos, que versiones tan nivel Máster y con sleeping sun solía pensar que no habría mejor versión que la original, sin embargo; aquí Tarja supera por mucho a sí misma lo hecho alguna vez con nightwish...
To hear Tarja taking in her native language sounds weird in a good way
Awesome, you guys are amazing AND NOW with Tarja... I have no words! I'm total in love ❤️
The end of the Sleeping Sun reminded me of some sort of Gypsy music. Very well done and sounded beautiful & up-beat towards the fin(n)ish.
Astounding " Finnish " indeed !!!!
04:18 - Until My Last Breath
25:34 - Sleeping Sun
Thank you 🇧🇷
Is this the "egocentric money-hungry DIVA" that Tuomas screamed out loud to the world she was?
Well, that's a pretty happy monster right there. 29:30
It is perhaps very telling that that is the only time throughout her entire career, working with tons of musicians in different genres, that such characterizations of Tarja have been uttered by anyone. Also, my impression, particularly through the (highly biased) NW biography, is that NW has only had one DIVA and not a female one at that...
No it's not and it never was. And it was the NW boys who were after profits, that comes clear from Marco's book quotes, when they were upset at Tarja suggesting cutting the tours shorter.
The boys were angry that she moved from the band bus to hotel, saying she needs rest, and it added to the band's costs. So they cursed her as a diva. But both Tarja and Anette were exhausted by Nightwish's intense pace long world tours: both complained it hit hard their health and vocals. Tuomas said much later that they were pressing too hard early years, and are now taking it more relaxed. It was angry-talking from the boys, their letter was demonizing. Except what comes being an operatic vocalist: not a diva, not in the negative sense.
It's this toxic fandom that Jani writes about in Not Your Monster. They've moved on, you people refuse to. Who's at fault in this situation??
@@NeeceLoneWolf No-one here was toxic. On the contrary, all said that the diva-talk was baseless.
@@NeeceLoneWolf Or did you mean we were toxic at Nightwish's direction? Mmmm, yeah somewhat. More like explaining our views.
This is exactly why I enjoy Tarja so much, she is like Rowan Atkinson, a very unique artist that, at the same time is goofy and genius.
She is such a genuinely funny and well resolved woman.
It was very telling seeing her finally singing with a folk kind of ensemble, this is how I imagined her voice would stand out from acoustic mood and folksy music, had her previous band gone down that path, it just does not match her voice.
I loved the UMLB version though, very tango oriented indeed, reminded me of Romanian traditional music,
I do think that her voice is way too powerful and dramatic for this kind of festive and light music,.
However, Sleeping sun was brilliant, you can never go wrong with Tarja singing it, she is the wish of the night and will always be.
One in a million and you guys did a great job, completely revamping the songs, thank you for bringing the Karelian girl on board!
Yeah, I said in my comment about UMLB that I would rather have heard her sing it with softer approach. Like her Christmas songs. I think it would have worked better with that kind of song.
That being said, it wasn't bad with more classical vocals either, it had its good moments.
Right, she likes to make fun and make people laugh. She does sometimes go all goofy.
@@Aurinkohirvi it was delightful.
Wow! Tarja just knows how to hit those notes where it’s needed.
I love Tarja’s voice she’s great Night Wish made a bad mistake losing Tarja.
Абсолютно согласен! Группа Nightwish без Тарьи Турунен просто жалкое зрелище!
This is awesome! Thank you! Kiitos! Tarja is a singing Angel!
Must confess I came (initially) only for the sake of Tarja although I knew Seagulls to some extent. And I JUST FELL IN LOVE IN EVERYTHING! Not to mention Turunen herself which I already did in 2000 - and still do! As soon as possible (it's almost 1 AM here and I have to sleep to wake up 8 for work)! ALL OF YOU ARE AMAZING!!! THANKS FOR THE MUSIC AND THE FUN!!! LOVE FROM 🇧🇷!!!
Absolutely beautiful versions of Until My Last Breath and Sleeping Sun!! 😭
22 years i am serious love with this WOMAN!!!! And her voice.... Even Gods can't create more Beautiful and purest thing then her!!!
You forgot to tell me. LOL ! She's fabulous and so are they, plus the warmth between all and the joy filled fun they're having.
Beautiful and powerfull Voice! ❤️
When she asked Hiltunen to be her pair. The cutest thing I have seen in years...
Like anyone would say "no".
GOD dammit, is she hot or what… I did allmost mist the hole episode of pure gold, because of my moms old Datsun headgasget blow up.. I’ve been in our barn ever since your last episode to get that machine up and running again. Me and my mom are waiting the next season. She said that you are nice and good behaving gentlemen. Specially she wishes her best to Mr. Saunamajuri and his quiz. I wonder why ….
Ahhh you went full on Bregovic with Sleeping Sun! Loved it, bloody hell! Crying, laughing, crying again.. ❤️
Beyond words, really 💘💘💘
Human doll with a voice from heaven. Now, since you mentioned Bregović, imagine her singing Ederlezi (or Đurđevdan in Serbian)?!?! I know, I`m dreaming (cose of the language and all) but we, her fans from Balkans would have gone mental out of pure joy!
@@AlenBacvanski No doubt she could pull it off. Have listened to her sing in 6 languages💖
I'm A little late but never too late. She's On
What a fantastic episode, and what a celebration for wrapping up this great season. Everyone was having such a good time in this video, I really did not want it to end at all -- and the Gulls and Tarja sound simply sublime together. I absolutely would buy some kind of Laituritanssit type collab album full of bluegrassy covers and rejuvenated Finnish schlager and tango... can you imagine how wonderful old standards like Satumaa or Albatrossi would sound with this lineup?
Kyllä täältä Youbesta tulee paljon parempaa ohjelmaa kuin Suomen televisiosta. Suomen televisio on jäänyt johonkin ihmeelliseen uusintalooppiin. Saman viikon aikana tulee samasta ohjelmasta sama uusinta liian monta kertaa. Ai niin, tämä Tarja Turunen-speciaali on ihan huippu. Mahtavaa, kiitos tästä.
Mind blown. Killer series, brilliant season closer.
It Sounded like a beautiful tango!! 🇦🇷🎶 Beautiful!! Greetings from Argentina!!
A voice like no other.
♥ ☺ ♥
Thank you for this!!! I loved this episode! Tarja❤🤘🏻
Kiitos!
Holly mother of god! Best peformance of Sleeping sun ever!!!
Line of Duty?
Adom!
Excellent Video and Interview! It was very enjoyable, put a smile on my face from the beginning to the end. Love Tarja. Guys you are awsome. Greetings from Uruguay!
From nightwish to this....bloody fantastic !
😱 I looooooove Floor’s version!!! Until I heard the Sleeping Sun version I thought I didn’t needed after all this time!!! Then BAM!!! Tarja hits you with this!!! 🤘🤘🤘 We are the luckiest fanbase ever because we have two of tue best vocalist in the world!!!
TARJA'S fan base is the luckiest 💘
@@larryzigler6812 Yeap! Also agree! ❤️
Good god!!!!! I’m fully blown away by the way how she sang Sleeping 🌞! She took it the only way she knows to the whole another level! 👏🏻 BRAVO 👏🏻 Our Diva our goddess amongst us, one and unique TARJA TURUNEN ♥️
Tämän sarja nerokkuus on kyllä vailla vertaa! Hienoa työtä koko remmi!
We need a special album with the songs of all Seagull's nest episodes 🤟🏽 thanks guys, you're legends!
Que increíble combinación … 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Tarja in such a small room, there was no need for other microphones. You guys stood no chance of your voices being heard. :D
That was beautiful, guys.
Thank you!
Whole day of laughing with Tarja ended with "Cheerful sun" :D Great episode.
Yeah, that's a proper title for this version!
Tarja Is the best
Sublime! Tarja brings tears into my eyes! Well done Gulls!
Lot's of tears and smiles too 💘
@@larryzigler6812 Absolutely. Still the small town girl.
@@ImForwardlook Just watched a great Instagram chat with Steve`n`seagulls's she had today.
She said she has a huge announcement tomorrow !!!!
@@larryzigler6812 Sounds interesting!
@@ImForwardlook I think that it's her first book.
Excellent work, I can't wait to see another chapter! I love Tarja and I love you.
Tarja👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
Such an amazing episode! The music and Tarja’s voice gave me chills, it was like standing in a concert hall. Bravo 👏🏻
Its amazing because its Tarja, if it were another Nightwish singer it would be garbadge
Mä en kestä tota Tarjan reaktioo, kun se näki ne skubun piirakat. XDXD
I need an entire album please this is SO good!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed !!!!!! Would be epic !!!!💘
I love Tarja so much. Whatever she sings).
Exactly, a beautiful musical genius with a tender heart 💘
Tarja ♥️
This was fantastic, so very Finnish. Loved the interviews and competitions were hilarious.
Years passing the voice is still amazing
OMG Tarja looks amazing 😍
An angel
She has aged well, to say the least !!!! 💘
She's in excellent fit.
In a bit too excellent if you ask me. Wouldn't mind if she was a bit rounder, in eye candy sense.
But she always said that she needs to be in good fit to be able to sing as she does.
Wow! This was great!
Omgosh she gives me goosebumps when she hits certain notes! 💗
What a great episode. Thanks for the collaboration. Great work guys (and the one and only Tarja 😃).
Wow thats awesome! Tarja is amazing as always and i loved to know your work!
I can't wait for the next season.
Tarja has a beautiful sole and voice
From Oklahoma, USA
Best show on RUclips
It took me awhile for the joke of "according to your own model" to sink in.
LOL, the confusion was almost tangible for a moment...
That's a rather well known joke about Karelian pies, though.
@@Aurinkohirvi is it a joke? 😆
@@vituixman1912 That apparently was.
A voice teacher with classical background once reacted to Tarja´s rendition of Phantom Of The Opera with Nightwish with the words: " Oh my God,- Perfection!"
Hhe's a nice woman :)))
My favorite song by her has always been "I walk alone." So haunting and ethereal.
Very charming episode. Thank you!
Tarja's voice - wow.
I love her so much ❤️❤️!!!
Greetings from Boise, ID, USA! Thank you, for your beautiful voice. The music resonates. My heart is lighter in these time of trial. Thank you.
Am I going crazy or did Tarja won all the contests?!
Tarja Turunen IS HOTTTTTT!!!!!!!!! ILOVE HER
I agree she is the only one who puts the soul to this song.
Avesome guys! 😀
that was so fun to watch!! and i love the different vibes of the songs, love it! Terveisiä Argentiinasta ♥
Tarja is a living leyend
Oh. Wow. Both songs were absolutely wonderful - what a VOICE that beautiful woman has, and, what presence she has when she sings! The arrangements were, of course, superb - but then, I expected nothing less! It was the second song, though, that left me with tears in my eyes from the beauty of it all - the music of all of you together, her beyond-wonderful voice (!), and then the gypsy-like music with the clapping at the end... man, all of that really lit me up! Holy - freaking - crap (in a good way, mind you). And, of course, the fun of the competitions... what great entertainment those were! Loved when she said she wanted to still be able to sing and wear leather pants when she's 70... I bet she'll do it, too! By the way, I had to watch this a few hours later, as I wasn't home when it premiered. It sure was worth the wait!
No one compares well to divine precious TARJA, no one.💘
Thanks for this episode, Sleeping sun is my all time favourite song. I have never been to Finland but now I can feel somewhat what the country is like.
06:58 wow
For those people giving it thumbs down, have you hearing problems?
Thank you !!!! we need this gifts in moments like that! Thank you for the great music and passion!!
