    Sistah, you did it again! I was trying to find an analogy to really explain what these videos do to me, so please bare with me:
    My mind is like a sheet of metal and these songs have been hammered into my mind so many times, their outline is now clearly defined and no longer make any dents when I listen to them.
    When I watch you react to them, it's like my mind gets smoothed down again and the songs really make a clear impression, as if I've heard them for the first time.
    But it's better than the first time I heard them, because now I have a more refined musical understanding and more maturity, more open mindedness.
    You being so open to us and not hiding your emotions allows me to project your emotions onto me and amplify the shock of the music and the emotional charge.
    Thank you, again, for letting me feel what 15 year old me was feeling when listening to these songs!

      You moved me so deeply, ny this remarkable message. 😢 I appreciate you for sharing this with me. People, like you, that are willing to pour out your truest feelings and thoughts, without inhibition, makes my metal journey more enjoyable and it gives me the desire to want to continue, allowing you all to see me vulnerable side.
      Thank you, beautiful ☺🤗😘😘😘💖

      It is seeing someone experiencing the same feelings you had when hearing it for the first time, but for you it already has memories attached to it. Same for me especially since my mom died that same year. I cannot listen to it without a tear in my eye since the breakup of nightwish and after that my mom passed away. I totally get that analogy you make.

    Tarja didn't audition for Nightwish, Tuomas and Emppu went to ring her doorbell and asked her whether she'd like to join. She said yes and the rest is history. Tuomas didn't know the extent of her voice until they were recording their first song for the first demo.

    Great reaction, always love watching this performance!
    I have to correct you on a couple of things though - Tarja didn't exactly audition for Nightwish, she and Tuomas and Emppu founded Nightwish, they knew each other somewhat and Tarja was basically the only singer in the town they lived in, so it was natural that they came together. Originally Tuomas' idea for the band was to be an accoustic folk band, however they quickly evolved into metal because Tarja's voice was so powerful. Also Phantom of the Opera was not on Angels Fall First, it was on Century Child, which was their fourth album - this was also the first album Marco was a part of, before that the bass player was Sami Vänskä who did not sing, so when Marco joined the band they were able to do a lot more harmonizing and more duets, also Tuomas didn't want to sing anymore, which he in fact did on Angels Fall First.

    Always great to watch her how she feels the music. I got goosebumps and teary eyes too with this song. That Tarja's ending high note is D6, which is quite brave trick to do for any soprano at LIVE recording gig, because chance of failure is pretty high. Marco sang his own solo number also in this concert; Pink Floyd's High Hopes. You may like to listen it too. It's beautiful song and great cover version.
    I just wonder what will happen if you guys do the Poet and the Pendulum... Because even it's dark song it's so emotional too, has so beautiful orchestration, especially those violins at the ending part, Mother & Father. So beautiful melodies... I cry like a baby every time I listen to it, no matter if it's the album version with Anette or live with Floor. Also I can't wait you to react to the Greatest Show On Earth - so spectacular and epic show in Tampere, Finland 2015!

    • @bigg2988
      @bigg2988 5 лет назад

      Agreed on all counts! I have a hunch "The Pendulum" is swinging closer. :)) I have seen it requested at every turn (by myself included ;)).
      For a "feel-good cry-song" (if that makes sense), I would also stand by my earlier recommendation of "Ever Dream" (possibly with Tarja, but especially with Floor!).

    If you like Pink Floyd. Nightwish did a cover of Pink Floyds song High Hopes from this same concert. It is unbelievable. Maybe you could play both versions to see what Nightwish did to the song to make it their own. Before everybody goes nuts. I am not saying they did it better, just different. Hope you get feeling better..........

      @@silvadamico Only Tarja can truly render songs like Everdream and Sleeping Sun. Floor's version isn't terrible but she loses a lot of the more subtle emotions in the song with her more aggressive style. Tarja is more flexible. Tarja can be powerful as is evident in this song, but she can also be more delicate too and not lose the more subtle emotional nuances in songs like Everdream and Sleeping Sun the way Floor often does with her much more aggressive approach. Not everything should be sung as if it were a rock anthem.

    Idk if anyone mentioned this but Tarja never auditioned for Nightwish. Tuomas knew her from school and asked her to sing on their demo (Nightwish at the time was acoustic mood music) and when she opened her mouth and started singing her voice was a total shock to the guys. Her voice is a big reason they started making heavier music as her voice didn't quite fit what Tuomas had in mind for Nightwish. :)

Anneke is literally the godmother of all Symphonic metal bands female front singers that followed like Floor, Simone and Tarja. And Tuomas himself said that The Gathering was a major inspiration and influence on him to start Nightwish.

    Grat reaction. As much as I'd love to watch you listen more Floor, I'm also glad to bring Tarja for Sistah to compare.
    Some 'fun' facts:
    1) Floor actualy did this song twice (well several times) on Christmas metal symphony 2008 with Russel Allen and same gig 2013 with Joacim Cans. Sadly it was not officially filmed, but in your free time without camera you could try crowd camera version. They don't sound that bad.
    2) If you wanna hear Floor and Tarja together on one stage, they actually did Over the Hills and Far Away together in 2013 in Belgium. Basicly to shut media up for trying to make some publicity out of NW changing singer again, and trying to inicite them agains each other, because they are friends since 2002 when Floor with her band After Forever was NW's warm-up band. Media stopped after that gig. Sadly it is also crowd camera only, but it is interesting to see both of them together. (BTW Sadly sound technician on that show was 4ss#0le)
    Next please some more Floor: NW - Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembey 2015
    (originally sang in studio album by Anette, but don't bother with her - definitely not live. She was good on studio albums, but live... that is another story)

    This is one of my favorite Nightwish performances. It is very iconic. In addition, the parallel that is possible between the history of Nightwish and the story told by the musical is very interesting. Tarja would be Christine and Tuomas would be the Phantom. In the musical's history, the Phantom is in love with Christine. It is an unrequited and stormy love. In addition, the Phantom is heard through Christine when she sings his compositions. The story of Nightwish is marked by dramas and many say that Tuomas suffered from an unrequited love for Tarja. Tuomas used to say that Tarja was the voice that best expressed his feelings. The lyrics of songs in Tarja's day were often very confessional. Christine was the voice of the Phantom, while Tarja was the voice of Tuomas. In the musical, the Phantom disputes Cristine with Raoul. At Nightwish, Marcelo (Tarja's current husband) said that Tuomas disputed Tarja's love (read the answer he gave to question 36 of the fans). Nightwish's choice to cover The Phantom of the Opera, just the part where Christine and the Phantom sing together, seems to be a very interesting coincidence, or who knows, it might even be a choice made by the unconscious, if the situation is viewed from a psychoanalytic perspective.

    I said this on another Nightwish reaction video: *This is what happens when classically trained musicians become metalheads.* It is spectacular. Both genres have power, energy, raw emotion, and (good) metal even has the sophistication that opera is known for. On the outside, these two genres seem incredibly dissimilar, yet they blend so amazingly well- especially when the storytelling aspect of opera is left in. Symphonic Metal, AKA Operatic Metal is one of my favorite genres, for sheer musicality!

    I think it's too bad that Anette never got much love from Nightwish fans. Dark Passion Play was written for a timbre like Tarja's, which is very different. The writing was also subpar IMO. The following album which was written for Anette's voice, Imaginaerum, was also a little uneven writing-wise but when it was good, god damn it was good. Anette really shined on that album. Storytime, Scaretale, Rest Calm, Last Ride of the Day, and Song of Myself (absent the weird poetry at the end) are fantastic tracks. If you're taking Sistah on a Nightwish journey through history, you have to give Anette some love. It's also when the band grew even more in popularity despite the shallow misgivings about the singer.

    • @bigg2988
      @bigg2988 5 лет назад

      Many true words spoken. I just would not say that ALL of "Dark Passion Play" was written for Tarja (although some of the other songs were added with her in mind anyway... "Bye Bye Beautiful" and OF COURSE "The Poet and the Pendulum"). But naturally, part of it was FOR her - the music for an album is composed over time, so some must have been done before the fallout happened.
      I would not call "Dark Passion Play" sub-par as much as dark and kind of "abrasive" (for lack of a better word) - just listen to some of the riffs. Was fully intentional to keep it that way, I believe. "Imaginaerum" is much better developed as a consistent lyrical story, and has those parts I call "incredible highs" (fans will get the pun), that are so dear to revisit. Overall, "Anette era" was not a failure musically as much as it was a let-down compared to what many people expected, with adjustment of musical style and all. With the benefit of time, this period in the band's history looks better than similar parts of, say, JUDAS PRIEST's or IRON MAIDEN's careers (as far as replacing iconic singers).

    However the telling of how they formed is slightly wrong as the tarja and tuomas were at school together, tarja never auditioned for the band. They just started nightwish together originally as a folk band.
    Anette was the only singer that had to audition out of all three singers..
