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

There asn't when I said that though.

ok...I see I share the opinion of several others here. I was really nervous about hearing Anette when I first heard they had a replacement, but excited at the same time. I heard the Eva single and thought..wtf? But I still wanted to keep an open mind. I had only heard one song as of that point.

When i first heard DPP I thought oookay...maybe this will grow on me. It has. I may not be as fond of it as I was Century child, but to me that disc was totally brilliant. I've also seen them evolving towards more of a rock sound since then, as i saw on Once..with DPP it kept going. Anette is great on it.

I thought they had a great live show when i saw them last year. I saw Anette struggle with some of the higher notes, but she still did well.

Point is.. I do like them both.

I didn't properly get into Nightwish 'til DPP, I'd liked them since Once I just wasn't so keen on the singing so I didn't listen to them much.

Same here

But i am getting more into their old stuff now, just wish it didn't have Tarj singing though Razz

by Scarygothgirl Thu May 22, 2008 1:31 pm

Yeah I'm the same, after getting into DPP Katie bought all the other cds so I've listened to almost every song they've done... including some of the demos lol, it's really odd to hear Marco singing what the choirboy usually sings.

Old NW for sure. For me, the magic is gone. But there's only one album from new NW. I can only hope it'll get better again.

I love old era Nightwish, I think that Tarja has a beautiful voice and gave a great contribution to the band.
But Anette also has a wonderful voice although it is very different to Tarja's voice. I like the new era stuff too. DPP is a great album as IMO are all the albums done in the old era. So I really like both.

i like both, i like the music, no the singer..........well i like the singer but NW is NW no matter the singer lol!

I know what you mean, the music is fantastic and the singer just adds their own interpretation. Tarja is a great singer but when she did a gig over here before Christmas she couldn't sell out a venue in London that holds less than 1000 people while Nightwish are filling venues everywhere. It doesn't matter if Tarja sings well if she hasn't got the songs!

by AngelsFallFirst Mon Aug 25, 2008 1:11 pm

I like both.
I prefer Tarja a little bit but it's hard to compare because they're so different.
I'm happy they got in Anette because I'm happy they decided to continue with a new singer rather than just break up.
I wish they'd kept Tarja for that one more album but you can't have it all Smile

by Helyanwe Thu Sep 04, 2008 12:32 pm

I will like Nightwish as far as Tuomas is there!...
So I like both,even if I still prefer listening the old songs..

by Tristania Thu Oct 30, 2008 2:24 pm

I vote for new fan, because I found Nightwish like a new band

by funeral freak Thu Oct 30, 2008 9:57 pm

old...is more strong than the new one

by Guest Fri Oct 31, 2008 4:22 pm

Old Nightwish.

I like the band. Through Anette tends to piss me off when she sings old Nightwish songs. I just don't love the band as much as I use to when they had Tarja.

by **KellieBent** Sat Nov 01, 2008 4:57 pm

Both

I love the old stuff and I love the new stuff. I also love Anette's version of old songs Smile

The band isn't about a singer and so as long as there is still a band then I will love them. How can you not love Tuomas, Emppu, Jukka and Marco Razz

by dreamy Fri Nov 07, 2008 9:55 pm

I'm a lover of the both periods!
And Tarja, for me, is the old era what is old is passed (expect the songs) now the present and the future is Anette... we must think about her

by Franneke Sat Dec 13, 2008 5:22 am

dont remember if I've posted already here, anyway... Razz

I think I'm definitively more this new era ( even if I also love old era with Tarja and love her voice too), but this new era with Nettie made me just fell in a deep love with Nightwish Razz

Now I like even much more Nightwish than before, I think they have got new "energy" with Anette, they all look so happy together, enjoying and just laughing in every pic, or concert ( since I atteneded their chilean gig I'm so in love with NW *sigh* Razz

)
I think Anette has got more new fans too, thanks to her charisma and sweetness, she's so adorable and nice with us the fans <3 I love you

and I love that, I love the happiness that they transmit to us, I didnt feel that never with old NW, and this is making a big difference IMO Smile

by Ena-Gothic Fri Dec 19, 2008 11:00 pm

I prefer the New Era Very Happy

by XxfrozenbutterflyxX Thu Jan 29, 2009 4:29 pm

Relly i would say both,because both Anette and Tarja have brilliant voices,and instrumentaly again both eras are amaizing Very Happy

Even tough i`m more in old NW songs,that doesn`t mean i`m a Tarja fan...because i respect her in the same measure as Anette(i`m waiting for new NW albums,just to hear how Anette will sing there0..but it mustn`t be a anette vs tarja fight so i voted for both eras Very Happy

by Luna'tic Sat Feb 28, 2009 12:11 am

O course I prefer old NW,even I prefer era that Tarja sang operatic vokal.I hate Anette.

by Ena-Gothic Sat Feb 28, 2009 10:33 pm

Just they have different vocals!!

Guys do not kill me but I need to say that I can not wait for the concert anymore!!!!!

by Ena-Gothic Sat Apr 11, 2009 1:08 pm

Everyone's different...someone is New era fan & someone old era fan...someone both! I just do not like when domeone is using rude comments about Anette & Tarja
