[@Kialandi90]

If it wasn't for Tarja, I wouldn't have loved Nightwish the way I do. Before Anette and Floor, Tarja's voice with Tuomas's writing captivated me. It was so different.

[@nightgathering]

That happened to me as well, that combination cannot be replaced. It was magical, perfect and extremely powerful

[@XTREAMER5423]

Shit. Who the hell would listen to Nightwish after what happened in 2005?! Tuomas or Thomas Holopainen is a bastard

Tarja is my favorite singer in the Nightwish line up. Her and marco were amazing together. I wish they would get together on another project. Phantom is awesome

She's doing some concerts with him in July. Tarja and Marco could form Nightwish 2😁🙄🤘🤘

[@FilPol-yu1es]

Tarja's throaty voice and sometimes nervous Vibrato are a turn-off. She's a limited classical singer..She not a Rock singer. She always sounds the SAME. In a way, she Fakes it. I'm glad NIGHTWISH moved on from her.

It’s crazy to hear that a singer like Tarja did not feel confident in her voice in spite of being so darn good. In my opinion, that’s what perfection looks like.

[@Patuffson]

Maybe because that wasn't her comfort zone.

Her voice is so amazing that she’s almost in a league of her own. When she did “Paradise(What About Us?)” with Within Temptation it was like a dream come true for me. Sharon and her were incredible together. I do miss her singing together with Marko.

[@XTREAMER5423]

"Once I had a dream, And this is it" couldn't agree more! It's also my favourite.

[@jaymz_rg1003]

I did notice her start to experiment with different vocal styles on Once and I was loving it. Definitely a shame they couldn't work out their problems. She was definitely my favorite NW singer and still my overall favorite female singer. I can't wait to hear her new Dark Christmas album!

[@griefforest1870]

I love Once, but I might prefer Century Child, but just a tad. Both just incredible albums

[@XTREAMER5423]

Oh yeah. The Phantom of The Opera. The huge duet revived 18 years later.

[@plantifulalexandra]

Century Child is my fav

[@RVNT9OE]

The album version was underwhelming compared to the live version. They should've re-recorded the song with Floor and Marco before he left NW but Marco's vocals now are very tamed as well. Hopefully they do a studio version with Hank.

[@DarkHound9999]

Beauty of the Beast is IMHO up there with Ghost Love Score, Poet and Greatest Show... unfortunately they didnt play it live for 20 years...

[@mattvideoeditor]

Not soprano, she is the queen of the lows. I love Floor, but she will never reach those deep notes like Tarja.

[@yannickguitar1539]

Still listening to Oceanborn ❤

[@blue9779]

Very interesting how Tarja didn't feel comfortable til the once album. She's literally the blueprint for this style of singing.

[@Anttik_]

I think what she meant is that on the albums before Once she was singing mostly with the same operatic sound. Kind of hiding behind that powerful voice and not exposing herself truly to the performance. On Once she started using more different kinds of colors in her singing, really singing what the music needed and what she feels. A bit kind of what Floor is doing nowadays with Nightwish, really expressing her feelings through singing.

[@Cloudiskyies939]

You understand the answer wrong.

[@XTREAMER5423]

​​@@Cloudiskyies939It's technically impossible not to feel uncomfortable after those fucking bastards of Holopainen and others fired her because of her fucking husband. It's impossible. Also, with all of the bullshit made, Marko Hietala also left

[@PrincessZ1]

I found a CD of Once in a Goodwill many many years ago. I didn't know Nightwish at the time. I had a feeling it was a metal CD since a lot of metal albums have those similar looking album covers. 😂 I heard it and fell in love with Tarja's voice. I never heard such an amazing voice. I was just being curious that day in Goodwill and got it. I regret nothing. It became one of my favorite Nightwish album.

[@christopherchick6419]

My dream-my fantasy, would be for Tuomas to have a Nightwish concert which would be the absolute most epic concert of all times. This fantasy concert would be held at Tampere. It would be fully recorded to Blu-ray and DVD as well as CD and Album. This event would start out hard with the current line-up. Then, song after song, past members of Nightwish would return to the stage. Possibilities could see Tarja singing Poet and The Pendulum directly to Tuomas, Annette singing Phantom of the Opera with Marcos and etc. In my imagination I would love to hear these magnificent singers singing songs they didn't get to sing as Nightwish. Furthermore, I would love to hear Kai and Jukka doing a drum duet with both Marco and the new Jukka playing bass together! From the three female singers, we would hear duets and triplets of our favorite songs. As icing on the cake, as the show ends, after the pics and sticks are passed out to the audiance and after the final bow with all members past and present, Tarja, Annette and Floor would step up to three microphones and perform Ad Astra! Well, that's my fantasy at any rate. Let we fans know that Nightwish is the sum of it's parts, that THIS is Nightwish! Nightwish is known for being epic, perhaps the most epic band ever. Well, this would be their most epic concert ever! Thanks for reading Proud Member Nightwish Army...we are legion!!😊

[@Sirog77]

Wow have goosebumps (kippenvel) from your reaction so well said Really a dream❤

Sem divida o melhor de todos. Ela era a cara da banda a melhor na minha opinião 😍😍

[@xibir]

Imagine Nightwish album with Tarja after album Once, that would be even bigger banger.

[@ThallanarRabidtooth]

I completely agree. This period in Tarja’s voice was perfect. She’s gotten better technically speaking since then, but there’s a sort of magic in Tarja’s voice from Once and next from Tarja’s early solo albums. I’m not a huge fan of her chest voice, I think it’s over darkened and sticks out compared to the rest of her voice. She was experimenting more in the years 2005-2012 and I’d say that’s about when I think her voice sounded the best.

[@SydalaTristan]

Once is my favorite album. I still listen to it to this day. The End of an Era concert is just so amazing.

[@jhinocchio1698]

First time I heard her was in Wishmaster from a cousin of mine. I think thats my fave because of the nostalgia and how awesome they sounded to me at that moment of my life

[@sumonhan9602]

I agree! ONCE was the absolute pinnacle of Nightwish’s discography with such originality, epicness, beauty/perfection of form in both performance and composition. As you said, every element united perfectly in that album like lightning in a bottle, and I’m eternally grateful to everyone who worked on that album for giving me that glorious collection of music that I will always treasure. GHOST LOVE SCORE is still probably my favorite song of all time~ (though ATEEZ’s ANSWER has been trying to dethrone it for a while. 😂 Not yet succeeded though!)

Nightwish was great during the Tarja era, and she was a big part of that, and I really like her solo stuff. That said, I loved the Anette era too, and I think you can guess what I think about Floor, there aren't enough superlatives to describe her. I like all of their albums, although some more than others.

@Pascal-the-Rascal.... Floor's VOICE is Incredible because of the Beauty, Power and Diversity of Style she brings to her performances. I believe that FLOOR raises TUOMAS'S songs to their Highest Level BECAUSE she can interpret them with All the Emotions that TUOMAS wanted. FLOOR is Not Limited like Tarja & Annette. FLOOR is Truly a Great Singer & Stage Presence.

[@nathankinman7753]

Here's an idea for Toumas; he finds a way to make amends with Tarja, brings her on for a future project, and calls that album "TWICE." It would make for a great concept album.

Tarja was (still is) an incredible talent! She’s the reason I got into Nightwish in the first place, and she also shows just how damn lucky Nightwish are for capturing lightning in a bottle twice by recruiting Floor, because like Toumos, I considered Tarja irreplaceable at the time

What an awful feeling that must have been. I love Tarja and I love Tuomas, I could never choose between the two of them or their music. Thank God I didn't have to as she continued onto her solo career.

Tarja became a Diva in her mind so TUOMAS & Group helped her Out the door. Her Career NEVER RECOVERED. Today...she is always asked about her Former Best Years. Sad for her....BUT for the Rest of Us.... GODDESS FLOOR 💫🔥😍 saved NIGHTWISH & NW us NOW more Popular than Ever! 💥💯

[@felixmarques]

I mean, back then she'd told the band she'd be doing one more album with them at most, so.

[@Dulkh4n]

that doesn't justify how they did thing not only with her but with Annette too, take that and how marco told us he had trouble with alcohol ( as other member did too at the time just check their backstage videos) and you will realise that all her "diva" behavior was just to take care of here and put distance to their toxic lifestyle. Toumas was a prick and i hope he change and mature a little with the years, thx god Floor will never let them do something like this, as she already showed with the last christmas situation@@felixmarques

​@@Dulkh4nI like the Annette Era, but from what I understood is that she got pregnant around the time Tuomas already planned the Tour and he didn't want to cancel for her. And when he tried to get a replacement she was against it.
