[@pietkeizer5279]

Hi Curtin, you’re right…for any year. In the sixties fan of Stones, Beatles, The Who and the Kinks. Five years ago I discovered Floor in a Dutch program (The Best Singers, is on KZbin). Since that moment I am a huge Floorfan and discovered Nightwish ( and her former bands After Forever and ReVamp). Last year I visit three NW concerts and three Floor soloshows. My age? 71 years 😊. Waiting on ( I hope) 2025, the next tour of NW. Greetings from The Netherlands.

[@LilA-zl6tf]

Me, from Finland, do appreciate this a lot. From all over, this is one of the band in this genre - like ever. - I Think....

We here in Europe, especially in Germany, took care of making up for the American ignorance. Thanks for not caring: this gave use more time and attention with them. But hey - you got Taylor and Beyonce - they is also very talented. And they might even still sell ticket with Mickey Mouse on. So don't grieve too much. Next time.

[@MsJustice4ever]

Yes, but this song was clearly written for Tarja’s style and abilities so it’s a valid comment that her version of this slaps harder and sounds better. For starters Tarja’s version is several notes higher and sung in a more classical style.

Согласен, в этом исполнении эта песня звучит как скверно исполненный кавер. Без души. Такое ленивое исполнение. ​@@MsJustice4ever

[@qman2261]

@@MsJustice4ever Except that's just your opinion isn't it. I prefer Floor singing this, because there's more emotional depth (IMO). You're being too simplistic to claim higher = better and operatic style = better. It could just as easily be said that a contrived vocal style (opera) = worse. These are subjective statements that you're choice of language is presenting as objective facts.

I always respected the talent in Nightwish, the band, the studio recordings, their live shows, and especially the incredible songwriting! What a fantastic, and talented band!!! And that is hugely commendable in itself! But wow, when they had the good fortune of what they felt was a complete and utter disaster, and turning that into Floor joining the group, they caught lightning in a bottle! Floor Jansen is an absolute bad ass! "No one" does it better than Floor!!! No one has her beautiful, her memorizing stage presence, and incredible vocal ability! She always leaves me wanting even more!!! Floor is a rockstars, rockstar! And Nightwish gave her the ability to show the world how talented she really is! Long live Nightwish, long live Floor Jansen, and long live all of the members who've had the great fortune of being in such a wonderful band! Kiitos Nightwish, and thank you so very much for the endless hours of top notch entertainment:)

[@claudiosoldi9276]

You like the song and the music, I'm with you, but you have to learn to be critical. Tarja was an interpreter with a powerful voice and a stage hostess. It cannot be imitated in any other way. That performance belongs to her, reinterpreting it differently is a fake

[@homere-d-allaure]

@@claudiosoldi9276 LOL. I watched End oof an era. I watched Wacken. On stage (talking about presence, and the way they behave), Tarja is almost a beginner in front of Floor. Technically they're different. Tarja was almost perfect in her style. Floor is very close behind, but mostly she's way WAYYYYYY more versatile. If you wonder why they were so happy to have Floor in Nightwish, remember they wanted her to replace Tarja, Annette was only the second choice because Floor was not available.

[@nafisahmohamed4371]

[@homere-d-allaure]

@@nafisahmohamed4371 did I say the opposite? Annette is a good singer, and her albums were great. I just said that Tuomas himself told that he wanted Floor when they fired Tarja. She was not available. THEN they asked Annette to sing for Nightwish. That's all.

[@nafisahmohamed4371]

@@homere-d-allaure Yep. My bad. Reflect after seeing so many thrash and trash Anette. By the way, the three ladies have different styles of live performances too apart from voices and singing styles. Anette has most fun dance moves, Floor has best headbangs and arms movements. Tarja has best prowls around stage and dresses. Cheers :)

Floor is smart enough to not try to imitate Tarja with this. She brings her own style to the song. IMHO this song is so written to Tarja’s awesome voice. Love the song anyway

[@kelerhtz]

I think it's to do more with the band moving away from their operatic style of music. Not just floor's decision to sing it differently.

[@jesterhead1980]

I disagree. I fell in love with Tarja's version, however, Floor is a much better technical singer and makes this version sound her own and in doing so gives Nightwish a different perspective. Floor is definitely the best thing for Nightwish.

Anyone an idea what the '222 days of light' refer to?

What I like most about Floor is that she doesnt try to imitate either singer that came before her in the band. She has the pipes to pull off Tarja's songs but she adds her own flair when she sings them: she doesn't try to copy the way Tarja originally sang them. She also doesnt try to copy Anette when she sings the songs off of Dark Passion Play or Imaginaerum. She is very much her own vocalist.

[@chrislutes2882]

That voice..... She has a way of capturing the human experience in a way that is unique to her and the dimension she brings to the group is so multifaceted. This one makes my top 10.

I just love Floor's voice! Especially her lower register is very special and strong. And she does understand what she's singing! Very wonderful.

Nightwish one of the greatest and most overlooked band. Floor is awesome and on top of her game with this performance. The performance is mystical and haunting.

Wicked bass guitar to compare previous version:) love Floor's voice - she is amazing!!!

I must say this is the most beautiful ballad ever made, it makes me feel being very proud of bening a Finn AND makes me think of the nature of Northern Finland in winter with loads of those Northern lights.

[@reithsymonds4517]

How come you Finns can write such good music; Sibelius managed it too with Finlandia and many other pieces.

Tarja made it sound very perfect, clear and flawless like a crystal. Floor made it smaller, quieter, more intimate and sensitive.
