      This is a ranking of internet searches, so Tarja probably gets a boost from Floor's immense popularity: people hear Floor, discover Nightwish, and then get curious about the band. (I discovered her in exactly that roundabout way.)

      Tuomas had the advantage of forming a band with Tarja and Emppu and picking up Jukka and Sami right after.
      I liked Floor 20 years ago, but her old band was short-lived, exhausting artistic potential, and never that successful (even tho they have some total masterpieces). I actually forgot about her for almost 5 years. I never forget about Tarja, as opera is my thing and led me to NW, and I liked her both as a Nightwish and solo metal singer, and as a classical stage performer. Both women can showcase their skills no matter what material they work on.
      If Tuomas didn't have Tarja and Emppu to perform his compositions he would remain maybe a richer but not so famous ghost writer for other artists ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      I think the only reason she isn't bigger is because she's fronting a project that is extremely unique and sings mostly in japanese. If they had more songs in all english or if they were simply pure metal/rock I think it be a different story. Ramstein is a good example.

      @@danriu Do you compare the popularity of BABYMETAL with Nightwish, or some other renowned band in the west? Or the popularity of BABYMETAL in Japan? Because in neither case is it. In Japan they don't even give them the recognition they deserve. If you compare the number of people who live in Japan with the number of people who know or have heard the name BABYMETAL, you will realize that they are unfortunately not popular. In 2020 BABYMETAL was recently invited to Kohaku, where they made themselves known a little more in their own country.
      PS: Of course BABYMETAL sells out all their concerts and has a lot of fans in Japan, but that number of people is only a tiny fraction of the total number of people living in their country. In Japan, J-Pop and/or J-Rock is more popular
      PS2: Just because Japan as a country is popular, because of its culture, music, anime and other things, it doesn't mean that BABYMETAL is so :(

      @@erwinmulder1338 Epica, the evil little sibling of Nightwish (is what we called them about 20 years ago). While i do love Epica equally, they are by no means in the same league overall. Yes, they are one of the top tier symphonic metal bands with femal main vocalist, but they go far harder and darker. And while there are times when they share or take the throne from NW for a while, they never stretched the borders of the genre (or any metal genre) as far as NW did and does. The symphonic metal sound was redefined and reshaped by Nightwish countless times, far more signifacantly than by any other symphonic metal band.
      In my opinion it's like this: If you want a band that is the definition of symphonic metal, you listen to Epica. If you want a band that is anything and everything that symphonic metal could be or become (and beyond), you listen to Nightwish. And because i like the music by J.S.Bach and walisian folk ballads as much as the music by System Of A Down, Lord Of The Lost, Rammstein, Electric Callboy, ASP, Epica, Nighwish and Old Mans Child, i go for Nightwish more often than for Epica.

Her range spans literally an entire octave higher, she can hit F6 in operatic head voice. Why? Why hold back the variety she can provide and streamline, simplify everything instead of utilizing her full capabilities?

    Su-Metal is the stage name of Japanese singer Suzuka Nakamoto, who has become an icon in the metal scene worldwide thanks to her work as the leader of the band Babymetal. Since her debut in 2010, Su-Metal has made an indelible mark on the music scene thanks to her incredible talent, stage charisma, and ability to fuse elements of metal with Japanese pop culture.
    What has made Su-Metal revolutionize the world of metal is her ability to connect with a very diverse audience, which has helped expand the genre to new audiences. Her voice is unique and has been able to adapt to different styles and musical genres, allowing her music to have a global reach.
    Furthermore, Su-Metal has achieved what few artists have been able to do: she has fused metal music with elements of Japanese pop culture, creating a completely new genre. Babymetal is known for its "kawaii metal" style, a mix of metal and J-pop that has captivated millions of fans around the world.
    But what really makes Su-Metal a revolutionary figure in the world of metal is her ability to break stereotypes and cultural barriers. As a woman in a male-dominated genre, she has defied expectations and shown that women can be as talented and passionate as any other musician.
    In conclusion, Su-Metal has revolutionized the world of metal thanks to her ability to connect with a global audience, her ability to fuse musical and cultural genres, and her ability to break stereotypes and cultural barriers. Her legacy as the leader of Babymetal and as one of the most influential figures in contemporary metal is undeniable, and her music will continue to inspire future generations of musicians and fans of the genre.

    You could pinpoint the exact moment Nightwish split with Tarja because of the HUGE spike in searches for her. Weird that Anette didn't spike as much for that split. Maybe because there was less time between that split and the arrival of Floor than between Tarja and Anette?

I also agree with every one else that Tatiana absolutely belongs in there.

      The Anette split was announced in the same post as Floor coming on board. Makes sense that new singer adjusting on tour was far more interesting than Anette flying home. Also Anette never became "the diva face of NW" unlike Tarja&Floor.

      Esque su úlitmo álbum "Strong" es buenísimo... Ya lo escuchaste? Si no, de verdad te lo recomiendo. Por eso sigue tan vigente Anette.
