The Phantom Of The Opera
I think this is their best cover in my opinion. I was always a fan of this song and when I heard Nightwish's take on it I was instantly hooked.

It's a reasonable cover i suppose. Don't think it's particularly better than the original. Tarja still does it live on her solo tour!

Will not hear anything bad said against this song! It is a fantastic version and I nearly cried when I heard it live in 2005. Remarkable vocals.

The Nightwish version was the first time I'd ever heard this song, so after hearing Marco sing it any other guy singing it sounds like a woman...

I've loved this song forever! I really did think Tarja and Marco did a great job on it. I'm crushed I will never see it performed live, since Tarja is gone.

I heard it live in 2005. It was amazing and it's a shame we can't see it live again.

It's each to their own though isn't it? I loved the song before I heard their version of it so I took to it the moment I heard it.

I love this song but I think that Tarja should gone more crazy and showed off her voice a bit more towards the end

yeah,she kept too quiet... that song was a good chance to showcase her capabilities,but she didn't
I will always prefer Sarah Brightman version,with that guy whose name I can never remeber...what was his name anyway?

The band did great on the music but Tarja's voice really didn't go with it. I love Tajra but The Phantom of the Opera has always been a song that use light female voices and hearing Tarja's heavy voice was just a little too much for me.
