The live version is way better than the studio version!

[@caiolucas8257]

I like the lower more powerful take on the Pandemonium part.

[@StarOfArtemis]

Always impressive when that happens. A lot more people can sound good when they can do 7 takes in the studio. Doing it live in one take is when you see the true talent.

[@varshykable]

So much agree

[@marcioroberto9820]

While I disagree, she sounds cleaner and more tuned in the studio version, I like this live too!

[@LigeiaNoire]

The pandemonium part is legendary. Amazing deep and dak voice she has! She is so much more solo than she ever was with that band. Long live the Siren!

[@caiolucas8257]

It definitely is, best use of her chest voice yet.

[@LigeiaNoire]

@@caiolucas8257 Check Darkness, house of wax or her presentation in Argentina with Noche escandinava it is just as good.

@@LigeiaNoire the genelec version of house of wax is so damn awesome!!

@@vschnee7 Agreed.

[@PetraPola]

She will always be the best for me. Her voice basically determined what music I would listen to for the rest of my life. I also really like her personality, she is so charismatic. She never ceases to amaze me.

[@jimmyboy131]

Someone hook a generator to this lady's voice! She could power a small country for a year.

[@themichaelvedal]

Yes.. perfection :)

[@jmkane2441]

She could be a Metal Queen if she wouldn't be a goddess.

[@hardybravo8485]

La mejor presentacion de tarja...

[@28FlyingDutchman]

I don't know what impresses me the most: her power house voice, or the fact she's dancing in a floor length ballgown, complete with corset and stilettos.

[@ericforeman9554]

A new Olympic sport

[@caiolucas8257]

She's incredibly well trained as a singer, check her performances of Stargazers, she's moving around while singing an incredibly hard song.

[@alvinjudetrono1624]

this just proves that Tarja is not "declining "

[@Mad9977]

Haters just jealous

[@powskier]

Hell no! Her 3029 as lbum: In the Raw, might be her best work yet. An amazing album!

[@larryzigler6812]

[@ABABABABABABABABABABBBBBB]

Mad9977 Productions not jealous dummy, some people prefer her voice in nightwish and some like it more now.

[@Toddalotapodamus]

I love how much fun she's always having. So much talent with so much quirk.

[@carlossilva7530]

Not much more I can say about Tarja and her performance here. Just can't get enough of the cello player, bobbing his head up and down, almost like he's going to headbang the instrument.. 😂 😂

[@palkik7324]

Tarja is Tarja, and definitely will still be, ever. Tarja you're amazing singer. Bravo for all your career.

[@juanpablosanchezdelgadillo7982]

In my opinion, this is one of her best concerts ever.

[@FluffyLaDooDoo]

Woodstock knows how to support Tarja. Also summerbreeze don’t forget them either. If I was there I’ll go crazy any freaking concerts. I don’t know why crowds in a metal band are dying down and not becoming as aggressive as they used to be.

[@themichaelvedal]

@@FluffyLaDooDoo Just too bad she parted ways with Mike.. he was a beast. But this is so good its almost surreal. She keeps getting better with the years. Just amazing.

[@erickmione]

No words to describe this woman. Love her so much, since 1998.

[@tapanim6576]

Tarja is the best.

[@monikasteiner1243]

Tarja ist so charismatisch

[@mihailvd]

Most lead vocals can't separate their style from the band they used to sing for when they part. But Tarja does it - and well!

[@rjth3gamewiz]

I wanna go to a tarja concert soooo fuckin bad 😭 I never liked opera till I discovered this beautiful singing woman!

[@thetube237]

Hey, Wilmerson da Silva, Tarja started in the Viking age, She is Gothic and may have lived in Gotland Sveden or Sweden 1000 years ago. she moved to Finland to get away from the Violence to sing her beautiful songs today. Today Finland and Sweden are the most beautiful places to go, and I will go there. Ja

[@sencercoskun4810]

Still remember the day -in 2004- when I listened to my FIRST METAL SONG, The Kinslayer(live) from Nightwish. That day and this woman changed my life forever, I'm a metalhead and proud of it in every second of my life. Doesn't matter in which band she sings, she is always one of the best vocals on this world. Carry on Tarja.

[@Mad-RCandHOBBY]

her live performances blast the cd's from the shelf ✌️😎👍

Love her in Nightwish and out. All over.

Solo con verla es suficiente LA GRAN IMAGEN QUE TIENE UNA ARTISTA TREMENDA

[@rolandbeya5805]

Answer from France to "Its me aquil". Tarja is so high in our heart, she can't fall down. She's one of, maybe the best Soprano Metal Vocalist we've ever heard, and, moreover, she is a very beautiful person. Some people don't like her classical voice on Metal Music, everyone to his own tastes. What I love, in addition to her beautiful person, is that she made the choice to explore Metal with the incredibly brilliant voice of the Nightwish bassist, and to create something different, something that 99.9% musicians of the planet (including France) is unable do. Remember, we are actually living in the era of "copy and paste". I say it loud and clear": Tarja! Keep on going ! and climb as high as possible, you can do it, keep playing your difference, with or without Nightwish! ". Sorry for the 116 who dislike, I don't like her, I adore her (French verb which means more than love).

wow it's amazing what 4 yrs can do, if you watch this song in 2014 it's nice, but not as strong as this one, to me this is the best performance of this song. She really has grown as a performer of her solo stuff.

Tarja the best Metal.....l❤ve

[@AdrianSanchez-ch8nb]

I love Tarja!!

[@miguelcastillo1742]

I'll be honest. I used to love Nightwish because how they mixed their instruments with Tarja's voice. It was just perfect, it made you feel powerful. I really missed Tarja metal style!!

[@brettkeepin808]

I think nightwish did Tarja favour, she looks and sounds amazing now

[@nafisahmohamed4772]

She did herself a favour too in wanting to leave Nightwish after doing one last album, but it became, 'You can't leave, we fire you now!" Now free to do what she wants and how she wants in her music.

[@caiolucas8257]

@@Aurinkohirvi If there was no time, Nightwish men should have the dignity to say it to her face, to tell her things ain't working out and go their separate way amicably. Instead, they threw her under the bus publicly to the point she became aware of it by the press not by her band members.

[@Aurinkohirvi]

@@caiolucas8257 Agreed. The letter was a rotten thing to do, and that's why Tuomas did it. It was clearly a revenge.

[@Aurinkohirvi]

Nafisah, Tarja tried to get Nightwish change things in the world tour. Why would she try to change things, if she didn't care, if she didn't want to stay? She told in her press confrence how Nightwish did about 5 gigs in a week all the time on their tours, and her voice couldn't handle it. She saw her health and voice failing during the tours and tried to get them cut the amount of gigs, but the band wanted to keep all the gigs. That's what divided them into two camps. So she said she will leave after the next album's world tour, but she would tour at tops two weeks at a time: this is found in the open letter too, and the band didn't like that. If Tarja didn't care about the band, why did she fight about the issue? Why not just leave? I'm thinking that's why they fired her before the next album, because they didn't want such world tour.

[@nafisahmohamed4772]

Aurinkohirvi - I read the letter made public too. But Nightwish is Nightwish. They replaced Sami for Marco for reason still murky, but perhaps Tuomas want a harder edge to his music. After going through some 2,000 persons to replaced Tarja it was said, the realize Annete may not be suitable in live shows and got sick when they are supposed to have concerts. And Jukka is supposedly not playing drums anymore because it was said he has insomnia. And years already now. Only they know what really happened and why. I am happy Annete and Tarja pursued their own path post Nightwish, but will always be irritated when fans blamed Annete and Tarja for almost "destroying" Nightwish, or is not "right" for Nightwish. These two ladies will forever be associated with Nightwish's defining and best albums over the last two decades.
