Nightwish - Meadows of Heaven @ Hartwall Arena, 19.09.09, HD Quality!!!

Annette is performing the beautiful song Meadows of Heaven for the 2nd time with Nightwish - enjoy!!!
Iam sorry that the video is shaked a lot sometimes or not sharp, it was so hard to film :)

[@markbogers4217]

Best two Nightwish albums are with Annette.

[@imaginarysoul3437]

Two of my fav Nightwish albums indeed!

[@nannarsol]

Same here, my favourite songs are The Poet and the Pendulum, and Scaretale, both in Annette's albums 💖

[@stasa-X]

One million like it's not enough for this great performance of Annete. One amazing song from DPP. I don't care about others people say but you are a brilliant singer with gorgeous bright colourful voice of an angel. Thank you Annette for those moments of great emotions 😘❤️. Love you always ❤️.

[@johannessilver8653]

This is so beautiful song and awesome melody. Anette really shines in this song.

[@Hari-888]

I'm from India and I'm not sure how I initially came across nightwish but this is my absolute favorite song of theirs

[@TheArmyofNightwish]

No words for this gig, either this band. This is just awesome, meadows of heaven - what a song. You could feel the strong passion of each & everyone of them deep inside. They showed meadows of HEAVEN ... 10/10 stars

[@chrisortiz1462]

OMG how amazing performance. The final is potent. Her voice is like an Angel. You feel the heaven in performance. Miss U Annette

[@dylanno1fan]

Crazy disappointed that this show didn't come out on DVD. Its the only way us United States (and other countries) fans can watch something as beautiful as this. Annette is absolutely wonderful. This is by far one of my favorite Nightwish songs and I couldn't be happier to finally see this performed live with such heart and soul as it deserves. Thank you so much @Chiriko87 for the fantastic videos you've posted. You are doing so many people a huge favor and we truly appreciate it :).

[@paulr1193]

Love Anette!! That "dreambound for life" part - chills, goose bumps every time! So grateful someone in the crowd filmed this, as it was very rarely played live. An incredible song, awesome performance from Anette. Can you imagine what a pro-shot of this would've sounded/looked like? Thank you so much for posting, much appreciated.

[@simoncrowthet3928]

Anette is so sweet got nearly her albums and proud of them

[@LordPhoenix1707]

Wow... wow wow wow. That was tearjerkingly beautiful. Anyone who can listen to this song and still say Anette was the wrong choice for nightwish... well I'm sorry but you're not going to get any better than this. All around fantastic performance by everyone there, very enjoyable!

[@ultramax1990]

Amazing and tender voice...

[@mofrakker]

Wow, she even added a little bit of gospel at the end. That's what I admire about her. She continues to evolve. Ive seen great singers that lose their voice, she keeps getting better.

[@y.sampath3560]

Anette may not be Tarja - but she is definitely a superstar in her own right. Meadows of Heaven is an amazing song..

[@NoeliaFernandez]

No lo necesita, las dos son maravillosas cantantes

[@LigeiaNoire]

Gorgeous woman, what a spotless performance you have here, beautiful, just beautiful and the fools didn't turn this onto a dvd, damn band...

[@Mysterytour7]

Genuinely, thank you for uploading this. I watch it all the time. An extraordinary performance of a deeply affecting song.

[@spanishhits3711]

This shoud have been a DVD.... just so awesome

[@ggiuliacosta]

Spanish Hits you know, everytime a see a comment about some Anette’s era dvd, I keep thinking that there is a issue about the visual. Her visual, in this case. A handful of comments in her nightwish’s videos are about her appearance. And we also have to consider that in that time people seemed to hype the criticism and hate against her because of her “replacement” of Tarja. It’s really sad that they (the band) didn’t get a DVD with Anette. Back to the visual issue, I supposed they didn’t invest on her outfits. In the other hand, look Floor’s in Decades or W2013 for instance. Or maybe because Anette didn’t headbang, I don’t know. But this performance! This song was hers, so moving that shivers! She definitely deserved! Set a freaking setlist and there is your DVD. (Thank you Imaginaerum movie, at least) Anyway, it’s nice to see and read people recognizing and appreciating her work! YES! ANETTE 🤘🏾

[@MorusRubra]

@@ggiuliacosta Several good songs during show is not enough for good DVD.

[@maxrav1831]

@@MorusRubra yeah but Annette had all the good bloody songs mate

[@GalaxyKauri2008Offtopic]

​​​@@ggiuliacostaTarja didn't headbanged a lot (only 5 times i think), so i don't understand why they didn't do a DVD. Their shows on Tel Aviv 2007, Helsinki 2008 and Helsinki 2009 are really good

[@Hippydude777]

Everything about this performance is absolutely divine she just has such a powerful voice and hey, she's a pretty good gospel singer.

[@stasa-X]

Thank you NW for getting Annette into the group 😊👍 we have a lot of wonderful song by her voice and great performances like this. Always when i see this video i am crying 😭. So great song 👌 and so incredible Annette ❤️. Love you ❤️ Annette.

[@NoeliaFernandez]

X2😢❤

[@richardwest6358]

So pleased to see this. Such a shame about the grim noise from the crowd spoiling the Annette's beautiful vocals and how interesting to see Troy years before his official membership.

[@jeffk1482]

Holy crap. I've heard some say Annette wasn't so good live - but you couldn't prove that by me, at least not on this piece. Repeat: HOLY CRAP!!!!! You can feel every fiber of that woman's soul here. Different for Nightwish? Yeah, I'll give you that. But "different" doesn't necessarily mean "bad", and holy hell this was PHENOMENAL!

[@constantinciubotaru6687]

It is Magical guys,and such a RARE LIVE JEWEL....one of NightWish's lyrical and most dramatic songs

[@freyallarganswald4746]

I love how each member gets really into their music 🤗💕

[@Wyheree]

I cannot get over how beautiful this is - I must have watched it a dozen times already. I do hope they make a DVD of this show - it looks like it was perfection!

[@stefanogombi134]

Anyone can sing this incredible song like Anette.. So anyone can compose a song like this.. only Toumas Holopainen..a great job Troy 👍and guys too 🙏 Marko makes an incredible job whit bass..but Anette..OMG!!!🔥 Am simply ' on fire 🔥🔥🔥! Her soul ..a black soul! Just like Aretha Franklin OMG! This incredible swed woman 👠 have break my heart 💖..go look forward Nigtwish.

[@Sevrion]

See this is why I miss her! You FELT the songs when she sang them. Floor, as talented as she is.... Can hit the notes with ease but she doesn't bring tears to my eyes the way Anette did. I'm SO glad I got to see them 2 weeks before she left. I mean have you heard The Islander live with her? Anette and Marco sound so much better together!

[@GregSBTheEagle]

Yeah... Floor doesn't sing this song, yet...

[@bigg2988]

​Yet nobody does, as they do not play it live anymore. :)) I will concur that Annette was good and stylish and moving in the songs penned for her. But, Sevrion, how Floor fails to move you is up for my wildest guess - maybe you just cannot personally stand those "big" vocals and high notes?..

[@Sevrion]

@@bigg2988 Tarja brough Euphoria. Anette brought Tears... Floor brings Chills. All are good. I feel different things with each singer.

[@davysonsantos3512]

I almost agree, but the Floor performance in TPatP always makes me cry.

[@harry_hernandes-salavis]

it has several great shots of Anette singing. and the panning across the stage to show each of the members was a nice change from it being stuck in one place. Meadows of Heaven is my favourite song ❤

[@volutedoak1508]

It's very interesting hearing commenter's perspectives of Anette from a time that Floor wasn't apart of Nightwish yet.

[@marimarilis3715]

what a voice... anette is amazing!!!

[@kaansireli6447]

She is pretty af! And sings very well 🖤🖤🖤

[@gabihdias2]

i miss anette way more than i miss tarja. so sad she left.

[@johannessilver8653]

I miss both...cause they did awesome singing in NW Tarja being also a (one of the three) founding person of the whole band and true inspiration for Tuomas to make music.

[@emanueledelferraro4979]

Olzongasm. The finale of this song is incredible

[@kira1919]

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM CANADA!

[@fatality789]

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM SERBIA! Nightwish all around the world!

[@_LaurenKim]

This song is....really nice..! I can't be express any words...

[@MrIslander96]

This may have been one of their most beautiful and achieved moments as an artistic project. The video is the proof of what they did. This is a jewel, a treasure.

[@imaginarysoul3437]

Floor could never sing this song this beautifully! She got a great voice but this song was made for Annette's voice ❤

[@Evnightlerd]

I don't like anette, I LOVE ANETTE! this song is heartgiven! so soulfelt, I'm so inlove with it, it takes me away to another "imaginaerum" field, lol. xD LOVE IT.

[@dareenamay]

Best album for me😍

[@blewers]

The best Nightwish song. Ever.

[@dougmphilly]

most under rated for sure

[@ggiuliacosta]

B E why is it for you? :3

[@behemoth2320]

I agree! But its joint first for me along with Ghost Love Score XD

[@crhu319]

Agreed.

[@jackdaws3632]

Just saw this video for the first time today (11-3-2013) and Annette couldn't have been better!! Love Annette!! Thanks for the upload!!

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM BAVARIA / GERMANY! keep being legends !

Yeah, you don't have a choice, yet... haha...

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM COLOMBIA

[@juanm.quiroga3488]

Its madness that this song has just been played once. It's just wrong. I wish they could bring back Dark Passion Play to this new tour a bit more.

[@PB-Trinity]

Juan Q Well we had Last of the Wilds, Amaranth and the Islander during the Imaginaerum tour, they brought back the two last ones on the EFMB tour and they played also The Poet & The Pendulum and 7 Days to the Wolves at a few shows... I'd kill to see Floor singing Sahara and Whoever Brings the Night though...

[@juanm.quiroga3488]

pieckoyt Sahara and WBthe Night oh god, yes!

[@PB-Trinity]

+Juan Q Well they brought Sahara back too. ^^ Also, I had the occasion to witness 7 Days to the Wolves and The Poet & Pendulum by myself last December : pure epicness ! ; )

[@micilla91]

Totally agree

[@KillerwhaleTRX]

Is that not because anette wrote this and she sacked??

[@thecc3446]

This song equates ghost love score and this is a masterpiece

[@ionutzbr94]

i dont think that tarja could fit so well for this song

[@LerrenWinterHeart]

Okay, NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM RUSSIA! but, what an awesome quality) thanks a lot) I was there..and so wish to live this day once again..

I can´t write. I´m speechless. All I can say is I wish I was there. NIGHTWISH = BEST BAND IN THE WORLD.... IN THE UNIVERSE!!! Nice the singer of the crowd at 5:20 by the way haha xD

[@LaiaBertran]

thank you SO much for letting me enjoy this part of the concert being so far away from Finland...AMAZING

[@kevinmorales4375]

angel voice!!!!!

[@jerryj1411]

Great, amazing. It's like being there. Being at a Nightwish concert. Wow. Huge thanks for this.

[@amoremorte6166]

This song is so beautiful. My Grandfather just died a week ago, and I haven't been able to not listen to this song since. Her voice really brings emotion into the lyrics.

[@Scott1305]

Wow...................just wow!

[@takarrai]

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM SCOTLAND! Amazing quality and so nice to see a video with Annette without a massive argument about Tarja vs Annette =) Jealous of you getting to see this!

[@kamyrith]

beautiful! Anette was amazing! **tear**

[@marianag88ify]

Whatever they say, this is the best video with the best quality of all that shows Meadows of Heaven Live, thank you VERY MUCH :)

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM THE US!!

[@johannessilver8653]

Awesome song again by Tuomas...in the endless row of them. Anette is really great in this.

[@SleepingNightwishSun]

Great performance!

[@tallullahdana31]

cant take it...this song with her voice,melts me away......

[@crhu319]

I believe Floor has not sung this live out of deep respect for Annette's frankly perfect studio version. Which is in my opinion the best thing Tuomas has written. Ever. And was certainly Annette's best performance in the studio. And I think her best work live. I wish this recording were better. If it is ever sung again live by Nightwish I would hope Annette would return just once to the band and sing it with Floor backing up on harmony only.

[@13Nelynt]

NIGHTWISH FOREVER FROM SPAIN !!

[@johannessilver8653]

Good for you...check more of them...they have so many awesome songs and stories since year 1996.

[@bobhollybeastmode]

This was the. best. nightwish. concert. ever!!!! Heres hoping the next Hartwall show is released as a live album. Hep hep!

[@BlueCrimsone14]

This song is so amazing, her voice adds a haunt. I've been a fan of Nightwish since I first heard 10th man down. Every song is great. I think both women are quite excellent with this band. I look forward to hearing many more songs from this awesome band. Annette is really good.

[@ultramax1990]

so,so cool! Best song from NW

[@eliudguzman5699]

Me encanta Tarja y Floor pero Annette fue bastante exitosa con las canciones que grabó con Nigthwhish en particular me encantan las tres y no entiendo cómo hay gente sigue "echandole" a Annete

[@h06anbjo]

This became one of my favorite songs after I watched an interview with Tuomas where he told what the song meant.... I don't know what the link to the interview is or what the video was called.... but he talked about what he considers to be the Meadows of heaven...
