Tuomas Holopainen Appreciation Thread

Marit — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 18:30:20 GMT

So no negative comments please. If you dislike Tuomas then get lost it's an appreciation thread!

I really like him. I love everything he writes or composes. He's very outstanding poet And he seems to be very nice person and hell yeah he is damn good looking I liked him very much when I saw NW live. I stood front of him. He smiled at me

How popular in Nightwish in your country?

Marit — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 12:44:07 GMT

Rock Cafe the place where they gave a gig last year was full of people. So I guess Nightwish is quite popular, here in Estonia

Ghost Love Score

Marit — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 15:00:55 GMT

This is my fav. NW song ever

What do u think about this song?

Beauty Of The Beast

britrogue — Wed, 14 May 2008 12:31:47 GMT

This is my favourite Nightwish song, and I was wondering what other's opinions were on it.

I could just listen to it over and over. For me, it really tells a story, and I just LOVE it!

To begin with, My Long Lost Love was my favourite part of it, but now, I hae to say it's One More Night To Live.

Century Child - How do you rate it?

Anonymous — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 14:00:58 GMT

5/5 no doubt. This is my favourite album out of the lot and was also the first album I bought. I can listen to this album all day

Feel For You

themetalinme — Mon, 26 May 2008 14:51:59 GMT

I LOVE this song! One of my favorite NW songs ever!!!!!!!

Getshemane

Marit — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 14:13:14 GMT

I love this song. Music is so wonderful and vocals fit with music very well imo.

Sleeping Sun

Marit — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 14:16:56 GMT

This is one of my favourite Nightwish's songs ever. I love it so much. I love the lyrics . I nearly cried when I heard it for a first time. Vocals and music are pretty amazing too. I prefer 2005 version.

Elvenpath

Marit — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 13:56:53 GMT

I personally like this song very much. It's the best form Angels Fall First imo. I like the words spoken by Tarja at the beginning. I also like the chours and music. And the vocals are lovely too.

Are you more the new Nightwish fan or you prefer the old Nightwish or both?

Marit — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:37:20 GMT

If you want to fight who is better Anette or Tarja then it's not the right place..So no fights just comment please

I like both eras. There is no point to fight who has better voice Anette or Tarja IMO. They have completely different voices and I think they both have very nice ones. Tarja and Anette both are beautiful too. And the band is still the same, same sound, beautiful orchestra and choir parts same band members. Still there are Tuomas lyrics and Marco's vocals, Emppu guitar solos ...

Do you think Nightwish were right to sack Tarja?

Anonymous — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 21:17:48 GMT

I think that it came at the right time. It had been reported that Tarja had said "Once" would be her last album with Nightwish and that she said the band couldn't go on without her so I can't blame Tuomas for doing what he did. He must have been furious with those sorts of comments as we must remember that he gave Tarja her break so she may not have got where she is on her own.

Best Closing Track?

Marit — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 20:39:39 GMT

I like Higher Than Hope and Meadows Of Heaven. But I vote for Meadows Of Heaven cause everytime I'm listening to Dark Passion Play I get very good feeling. It's good as final song.

Hey.

Hey, I'm Lindzi, 16 from the UK.

Really not sure what to say here.

I'm a Nightwish fan but I guess that's pretty obvious..

So um hey

New song!!

Capp0n — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 17:11:34 GMT

So, if you guys don't already know, there has been uploaded a video to YouTube of a new song of Tarja's entitled "Enough"

It isn't so good quality so let's hope it comes at another show while she's on her Tormenta en Am�rica tour and someone will upload it *crosses fingers*

Anyway, here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YOUgeEfZOE

Sounds really exciting doesn't it?

Marco Hietala Appreciation Thread

Anonymous — Sat, 29 Mar 2008 16:06:12 GMT

As we have appreciation threads for Emppu, Anette and Tuomas I thought it was only fair to have one for Marco.

As with the others, if you have any negative comments then this is not the place for them so keep them to yourselves thanks.

What is your favourite old song sung by Annette live?

shadowlight166 — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:37:52 GMT

Annette sings some of the old songs in live performances. Which ones do you think she did really good and which do you think Tarja sang better?

I think she sang Nemo and Wish I had an Angel really well. I think they suited her voice but when I heard her sing Dead to the world I thought it suited Tarja better.

What do you like and dislike about Tarja?

Marit — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 17:05:05 GMT

I like everything about her. She has very beautiful voice which I really love <3

I love her style. Her casual clothes are always beautiful

Her costumes and dresses on stage are also wonderful. And though I have never met her. She seems to be so kind, warm and nice person. Very funny too I dislike nothing I think there is nothing to dislike about Tarja

So what do you like or dislike about her?

Favourite song/songs at the moment?

How long will Annete stay in NW?

wildchild — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 21:33:06 GMT

I don't think Annete will stay too long in NW.After all,she has a child.

This is going to be one exhausting tour...I'm afraid that after this,Annete will get bored of everything.She'll probably record one more album and then leave NW.When she gets 40,she'll only think about her family and child.

But who knows,maybe Annete will rock hard even when she gets much older?Madonna is 50,and she doing stripptease on the stage,so I don't see problems in Annete headbanging in her 40-ies..heh,just ...

Once - How do you rate it?

Anonymous — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 14:05:24 GMT

5/5. I was already hooked on Nemo as it was the first song I heard from Nightwish but I also loved the rest of the album.

Dark Passion Play - How do you rate it?

Anonymous — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 14:07:39 GMT

5/5. I was a bit hesitant about this album as I couldn't imagine how they would sound without Tarja but they proved they could overcome it.

Reaching Amaranth

AliyahDuilliath — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 18:54:41 GMT
