- Both Sharon den Adel and Tarja Turunen are amazing vocalists that I've had the pleasure to analyze on The Charismatic Voice, but never both in the same song! Within Temptation brings Tarja into "Paradise" with a song that inspires creating a better future for all. What makes this all the more amazing is that our patrons selected this as their one song suggestion for me to analyze recently. Thank you, Patrons!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Within Temptation featuring Tarja Turunen for the first time, performing "Paradise”.

Hello
Please reaction this song
From ISYANA SARASVATI ft BURGERKILL
They're from INDONESIA
I think you'll like this song
Thanks 👍🙏
Do you ever post a UA-cam on a song or singer that you are critical of? You seem to love everything you post about and that could be that you only post the good stuff.
Please, invite Sharon and Tarja for a tea session, they're the most incredible and social flames in metal
For sure!
Oh hell yeah. Their IG chats were hilarious.
@@NeeceLoneWolf It was to die for
….and bring Anneke van Giersbergen while your at it! 👌😄
@@OrioN-fb7bx Yep, Anneke deserves some attention!
I remember when this single was announced, we in the symphonic metal world LOST OUR COLLECTIVE GODDAMN MINDS
Sharon and Tarja together was a dream collab
Yes, there was so much anticipation! I couldn't believe it was going to happen!
Right!!! That shit was on repeat for WEEKS!
Sharon and Tarja, together with Floor and Simone Simons are really powerhouses of symphonic metal, amazing voices and auras
The Netherlands have all the best women singers.
Floor has sang with all Four but Anneke was a trio.
@@ToddPetersen neighboring Sweden isn't too shabby in that department. Not to take away from these two.
Elize.
Also Charlotte Wessels imho, and Dianne van Giersbergen
Your observation of how the female metal singers prop each other up instead of tearing down is spot on! I have noticed this the past few years since I became a follower of especially the European metal community... and it IS absolutely beautiful to see, and hear them acting as sisters, not competitors!
Too bad some fan bases does the opposite
There's no competition between North American female metal singers either. Amy, Lizzy, Maria, Taylor are all good friends. The only competition is in the minds of fans and critics.
@@powskier Definitely, it happens in almost every fanbase of every thing out there. Movie fans and comparing actors/films, sports fans comparing players and teams, music fans comparing singers and musicians. People are naturally tribalistic towards the things they like, it's like they have something to prove, they feel the need to "win" some imaginary contest.
It's weird.
It's one of the reasons why Sharon and Anneke did the duo on "Somewhere". Sharon has said that she didn't know why, but the media were always trying to pit them against each other when in fact they got along fine. Same thing with Tarja and Floor, who are actually friends, or Simone and Charlotte Wessels.
@@bhscaps Dutch women are naturally lovely people i think lol
Sharon was doing a concert, and started singing this song alone. what she didn't know was that tarja was standing behind her. she turned around to see tarja and freaked out while trying to sing! they laughed and finished the song together. pretty cool!!
there's also a behind the scenes video also...again, pretty cool!
'd love to hear that. Can you link it please?
Would love to see that too.

Tarja is an absolute boss ! Been listening to her for over 20 years. Singers from all parts of the globe have mentioned her as an influence from Japan to Europe. I have enjoyed some Within Temptation tracks over the years as well. They worked well together.
My parents only listened to country and i thought i just didnt like music until my teens. Tarja was the first singer in a song ive ever liked
Hello from Finland. Yes Tarja is the best
@@teresalehtonen8499 No Sharon is better. Tarja is a little too opera like IMO. Sharon's voice is softer and prettier.
@@TristanandIsoltYou're talking about preference. I won't say which one is better because they're both excellent at what they do, which is why we like them. It's just a matter of preference.
@@jimmyboy131 Yep I enjoy Mezzo Sopranos over full Sopranos every time. To me it's a softer, prettier, less bombastic sound.
Well, this is exciting. In the early 2000s, when message boards were big thing, fans of Within Temptation and Nightwish talked about how amazing it would be to see Sharon and Tarja sing together one day. Both were also often asked about it in interviews when they were doing promo work. Great that it finally happened in 2013.
I remember this. I grew up listening to WT and Nightwish, always thought how amazing it would be to hear them together. When this song dropped, I remember just jumping up from my seat and shouting "YESSSS!"
I remember this, too. Relatedly, teenage me went to Pinkpop and passed a letter to Evanescence telling them that needed to collaborate with WT .... only waited 20 years, but they heeded my advice! 😂
Tea session with Tarja and Sharon would be so cool.
Praying daily for Swanheart live from Wishes to Eternity. 🙏🙏 Tarja pops off in that song.
Oh yes, it's a beautiful song!!And the camera gives such a good close up on her face so you can see all the techniques she uses, great for analysing ;)
ua-cam.com/video/JYVl6MOZXIs/v-deo.html
Tarja has performed this live with Within Temptation a few times, including Master of Rock 2019.
If you haven't already, check out one of those later on your own.
I prefer their HELLFEST performance a tad 💘💘💘
Yes! I love the Master of Rock performance where Tarja surprises Sharon on stage - you can hear her surprise in the mic when she first sees her :-)
I'm gonna go with a hot take - the M'era Luna 2016 version is the best.
@@Bartjo32 NOPE !!!! HELLFEST !!!!!
@@larryzigler6812 nah. Audio balance is kind of off, the guitar solo blows out the sound system, and Sharon does not chime in on the belt. But if that's your favorite, go for it 😉
I see so many people claim that Tarja's not versatile just because they don't understand that her having a naturally dark, warm voice is different from her using operatic styling, so it's SO NICE to see you point out where she goes more contemporary. I'm not sure if you've checked out much of her solo work, but she's awesome! Highly recommend her cover of Supremacy for some super fun style choices she makes and some killer high notes, and also recommend her folk cover of Sleeping Sun with Steve N Seagulls to really see how she can adjust her voice to a more lowkey setting.
As for Sharon, god I love her voice. It's grown so beautifully over the years. I know most of the stuff you've checked out from her is from their earlier discography, so you might have been surprised to hear her show off such a rich and powerful chest voice. Another great one to REALLY hear the development in Sharon's technique is the live performance of Let Us Burn. Some other fun ones are her cover of Just What I Need Tonight and her solo song Crash and Burn.
You should really see a live performance of this song--the M'era Luna one is fantastic! I love it live, because it really shows how they each get different spots to shine and really weave in and out of each other beautifully because they have such different techniques--Sharon's brighter, more natural tone takes the forefront on the spoken verses, while Tarja's classical, dark voice comes through more strongly on those belting vocals where she can draw out those rounded vowels, like you talked about. You get to hear Sharon a little better on that big climax part when they sing it live, too, cuz I don't think a lot of people even realize she's singing it in the studio recording.
Regarding the production, as far as I remember, WT recorded the track and then sent the demo to Tarja--so her vocals were likely layered in with Sharon's! They had like one Skype call at the beginning of the collab to discuss working together and then actually never met in person until filming this music video! That's the other great thing about seeing them perform live, to see their wonderful chemistry, because they've both talked about how they instantly clicked and became best friends and talk like every week. There's a really cute performance from Metalfest 2017 where in addition to Paradise they actually also sing WT's song Angels and Tarja's song I Walk Alone together (and sound GREAT on each other's) and there's lots of loving and complimenting the whole time. And you're so right--it really does seem like that vibe carries over into the whole community of female metal singers! I can't WAIT for Sharon's tour with Amy Lee to start, because Sharon's said they bonded insanely fast and it's sure to be an amazing time.
God, even these many years later, hearing Tarja's singing is noticeable and gives me chills.
I think you named the thing I love most about the metal sphere. They all get along. They like each other, support each other, help each other. They go together on tour, they co-headline, they invite each other on stage, or to feature on songs. They could see each other as the competition, but they don't. We're far from the pop music industry famous feuds, like Katy Perry vs Taylor Swift, Mariah Carey vs Jennifer Lopez.... It's a healthy and caring musical sphere and it's so inspiring.
I love Sharon. Everything about her is fantastic.
I shall state the same about the divine TARJA 💘💘💘💘💘💘
Reaction to Battle Beast would be something very exciting. So many great song and amazing vocals by Noora. Wings Of Light or King For A Day would be perfect songs to react to.
Yes! Finally a Within Temptation! So excited, they are amazing!
Hi Cats Chats, this is actually Elizabeth's 3rd Within Temptation video. The 1st was, "Somewhere," in Sept/2020: ua-cam.com/video/T015Y59R3ls/v-deo.html The 2nd was, "Ice Queen," in Dec/2021: ua-cam.com/video/uqNkuN2wXAk/v-deo.html And here is a link to Elizabeth's other reaction videos: ua-cam.com/users/TheCharismaticVoicevideos Enjoy!
She's done several before. You can can search her videos.
@@paulriddle7818 I think there were only Ice Queen and Somewhere with Anneke. I honestly think she should react to more of WT songs. 😁
I'm always surprised with myself about how much I miss Tarja's singing. There isn't and hasn't been anyone like her. It's almost 20 years since she left and those songs are still so emotional to me. How much metal has missed for not having her in a leading metal band since then. I'd pay a lot for seeing a Nightwish concert with her, even knowing it would be done for money etc etc.
Metal still have her... all her solo career has really hard metal in it... I saw her here in Buenos Aires last May... she sounds better than ever. 🤘🏻🖤
Tarja never stopped singing. she has made an extraordinary career in many styles. metal, symphonic metal, rock ballads, Christmas songs, dark Christmas songs, classical music, even the newest this year, a mix of electronics with electric guitars. Tarja always surprises and is always experimenting. but she doesn't do marketing
Can't wait to FINALLY see Tarja in one of her Christmas Concerts in December. Already met her 2 times after a concert and she's such a kind and humble woman, takes a lot of time for her fans.
Sharon den Adel and Tarja Turunen together with Elizabeth!?!?!?! Mind = BLOWN 🥰🤗😍😁😇
Ah yes, the Sharja collaboration. Still sounds amazing. I remember how 101% hysteric I got when they announced this song lmao Within Temptation has a knack in creating amazing songs about the internal world (feelings, struggles, hopes). They always changed their sound and lyrics to become something exactly as I needed in all phases of my life. This is the band of my life. Even their most recent songs (Entertain You, The Purge, Shey My Skin and Dont Pray For Me) nailed a lot of what I feel and think today. Paradise is from their album Hydra, which have two more killer colabs - And We Run and Dangerous, this one with Howard Jones. Bottom line: check listen everything from Within and Tarja's solo career and hapiness guaranteed haha
OMG Tarja
This is one of my favorite Within Temptation songs. Sharon and Tarja singing together is a beautiful experience. There is at least one live version of this song where Tarja came on stage to sing with them at a festival a few years ago that you may want to check out. Their energy on stage in that live performance is electric and you can tell that they just enjoyed performing with each other. It's always fascinating to me to watch on stage interactions when a band has a guest singer come on. Tarja and Sharon were having the time of their lives together, and the pure joy that was written on their faces is a testament to how they get along offstage.
LOL - I *knew* you'd love the part when the machine was turned on!!! The growl and snarl of the metal underlying Tarja's soaring operatic vocal is magic! In the context of the story, it's like the sound of unleashing the power of restoration and healing. It fits SO beautifully!
I have to confess! I am in love with Tarja since when i first heard and seen Sleepping sun video clip from Nightwish more then 20 years ago!!! Still in love with her! She will forever be THE Nightwish singer!!! I love Floor (she is a GODESS) also but original Nightwish soul voice is Tarja Turunen!!! P.S. Bless you!!!
Tarja and Sharon are extremely good singers and Within Temptation's video productions are always perfect little movies. Their voices fit so very well and they sound even better live. I love both of them. ❤️
If you want more wonderful female metal vocalist collaborations there's Tarja's Demons in You which she performed live with Alyssa White Gluz at Wacken 2016. Definitely a great song to check out. Not what you'd think of as a natural pairing but they combine their voices incredibly well with Alyssa showcasing her full range to compliment Tarja's wonderful voice.
They couldn’t be more polar opposites but together they both feed and feel off each other’s singing voices! Fantastic duet, feels like they have been doing it for years! 🤯
Cheers,
Mike L😎👍👍👍👍
Is this for real?
@@mikelehmann6256 No.
How does this work? Do I texted message?
Thanks! 😎
@@mikelehmann6256 You're welcome.
I've listened to the song multiple times already, but it never fails to give me the chills.
Also I'm infatuated with Blackbriar lately and I can't wait to see them make it to one of your videos. Cheers!
Another great song from within temptation is "Faster" greatest driving song ever in the history of ever !!
Always said the world would explode if Tarja and Sharon did a song together. 😆 One of my favs. If this is any indicator of how awesome a colab can be, I can't wait to see how the Within Temptation Worlds Collide Tour with Evanescence goes.
"Misi" Honestly, If I hadn't got into Evanescence, I wouldn't have got into Nightwish and Within Temptation. People don't talk about this a lot but Evanescence is probably the most influential and overlooked band of the past 20 years that got many American teenagers into Power, Symphonic, Gothic and Black Metal
@@lethybridtheorygolucastheo2191 I agree! I had heard 1 or 2 songs from Nightwish and Within Temptation at that time but I didn't know them by name. I've always been disappointed that they don't get radio air time in the states, I think a lot of people would fall in love with these bands if given the chance.
This is the way Sharon usually things, at least in the last 12 years or so. She became more chesty, and singing with a lot more mixed voice as well. In her earlier music with within temptation, she was much more of a light head voice singer. All beautiful styles. TARJA has been versatile for a very long time. She does sing a lot of Pop style techniques, not just classical as heard detractors would say.
I agree but that is something she developed after parting ways with Nightwish. I think this video is great show case of how she continued to work and develop her instrument over the years. It is part of what makes her such a great vocalist.
@@rnowak85 Tarja already changed her style a lot while being with Nightwish. Just compare Oceanborn to Century Child.
This made my day. My #1 Symphonic Metal band coupled with by far and without doubt the greatest ever female rock vocalist. And a fine tune it is too. Joy. Hard to believe this song is already 8 years old. It will of course sound great in 100 years.
This one is so much fun, love both of these ladies' style.
For another awesome collaboration, try Within Temptation with 'Dangerous', featuring the one and only Howard Jones!
All hale the REAL TRUE QUEEN 👑 of Nightwish and of ALL FEMALE SYMPHONIC METAL SINGERS!!!!!!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!!!!!!😀👍👍👍👍🤘
Your opinion. Nothing more, nothing less.
Dude, not cool. Tarja and Floor are friends, I doubt she'd appreciate you taking a cheap shot at her friend especially for the purposes of elevating her. Did you not listen to that part about women in metal supporting each other rather than tearing each other down? Don't be That Guy.
There’s the usually Tarjan spouting shit.
Chills every time :D Love them both! Tarja is really the OG
I can't wait to FINALLY see these two together on stage at the end of the year! I might be a 38-year-old metalhead, I can't promise I won't shed a few tears of joy...
Sharon and Tarja are amazing metalsinger....!!! This reaction produce me Goosebumps...!
Love this 🙂 It's so well done all the way around. Tarja and Sharon compliment each other beautifully - two legends in symphonic metal.
Next reaction MUST be:
Within Temptation "Faster". Sharon is incredibly brilliant there and reaches the stars during the chorus!!🙏🤟
I was just looking through your back catalogue of videos, and I was really surprised to see you'd never done an analysis of Lacuna Coil. I do hope you'll get to them soon - your knowledge of vocal technique is always so eye-opening, and really enhances my appreciation for these artists.
So happy you finally did this song. Have been waiting years for your to cover this song. It's sooooo good. Really gives you the feelz.
Finally, I've been waiting for this one for ages!
This song never seizes to give me goosebumps.
I have been listening to this song for years. It’s epic!!! So glad your reviewing it. Their vocals are dynamic together.
Two of the most incredible singers united in a great production! Absolutely epic!
It would be nice to have analysis of early Nightwish song with Tarja, where the true power of symphonic metal can be heard.
I Second! Tarja's voice was so much darker and ethereal back then, and that combined with the power metal they had going on at that time, so iconic and so good
Maby deep silent complete would fit the bill🤘🤘
@@rokker1976 yes please, the amount of emotion in that song is amazing!
The true power of symphonic metal can be heard with Floor Jansen all right.
@@Muschelschubs3r Floor Jansen is good bur for me is different type singer
Sharon and Tarja are like 2 jewels in a golden necklace made from the other WT band members. A perfect combination.
This song is up there with Stairway To The Sky and Shot In The Dark among Within Temptation's best songs. Absolutely awesome song for karaoke too, highly recommend singing this.
Oh man, I've been waiting a lot time for you to react to this song. It's a very beautiful song with equally beautiful voices. Well worth the wait! Amazing job as always!
Man, I have been jamming to this song for years. The song is epic and the music video is so cool. Looking forward to your Analysis!
Also, you should watch the behind-the-scenes of making this video. These 2 ladies are hilarious and had so much fun with it.
I love how much you love what you do. Your joy is a treasure
This makes me very happy, such a nice collaboration. Great session🤘
Tea time interview with Tarja! That would be so amazing. 😍
One of my favourite symphonic metal duet 😍 I love both Tarja’s and Sharon’s voices! These ladies sing with different techniques and they have very different voices but give me same goosebumps 🤩 Beautiful analysis!
I wish I loved anything as much as Elizabeth loves music. It's so great seeing just pure joy coming from music.
Oh I can’t wait! Are you going to interview one of them too?
Love Sharon's voice, Thank you very much for bringing this video
I remember when I first found your channel and saw you had analyzed some Within Temptation and Nightwish songs, this song was the one song I wanted to you breakdown so bad. So glad you have finally gotten to it. I always imagined Sharon and Tarja as Valkyries singing songs for the fallen. Such epic voices.
I love your reactions so much. You seem so excited about all of these songs and it never fails to put a smile on my face.
Watch the live performance from 2019 when Tarja showed up on the stage. You'll find it as Master of Rock 2019.
I love how at the end of the video you realize the kids are them and they’ve now grown up 🥲🌱
Omgsh. Can't believe I missed the premiere. I have been wanting this for the longest time 😍😍
This song made me emotional and teary eyed, wow an epic masterpiece.
Couldn't resist this analysis, cause I love this song (and video). The blend/contrast between their two voices just works so well, and I get the impression Sharon has moved how she sings a bit to help make that work (though I'm not a trained singer so I could be completely off base). Anyway, fascinating as always, thank you!
Cool! That was probably my favorite song of the year, when it came out. Amazing song and video, post-apocalyptic and sorta Fallout-like.
It's such a good song and I am a sucker for operatic lines as well, also I freaking love both singers so freaking much awesome your reacting too it.
Good morning to Elizabeth and everyone else hope you all are having great day! One word “wow’!! Can’t wait to hear them sing together! First time hearing this song! Can’t wait for Elizabeth’s analysis and reactions! ☕️✅🎧✅
Cheers, from Waterloo Ontario 🇨🇦
Mike L😎🎤🎸🎼✌🏼
Within Temptation songs to explore from their older album "the heart of everything" - Hand of Sorrow and The Truth Beneath the Rose. Tarja to explore from Nightwish era of "Century Child" - Ever Dream and Ocean Soul.
For so many people, this collab was a dream we never thought would happen. I remember screaming when it was announced. Thanks for covering it!
I must definitely recommend you to listen Tarja Turunen and Steve ’n’ Seagulls perform together Nightwish Song Sleeping Sun.
It's emotional and funny at the same time.
And i must say Tarja's voice is at its purest and most beautiful in that performance.
Thank You!
The 2 are amazing... their voices show ease of the great work they do... better than other genres of music
I'm so excited to see this reaction! ❤️❤️❤️
You should listen to some of Tarja's earlier work with Nightwish.
Wishmaster
Sleeping Sun
Passion and the Opera
Lappi 1,3
Beauty of the Beast
Angels Fall First
The Forever Moments
Walking in the air
Two for Tragedy
Deep Silent Complete........ She's my absolute favorite and I love everything she does, including all of her solo music
Tuomas Holopainen's favorite song just happens to be my favorite Nightwish song: Walking in the Air
this is one of my favorite songs by Within Temptation. Great arrangement!
I remember when this single came out (honestly, it feels like last week, not eight-odd years ago, haha!) Whenever there’s a collaboration by ladies in the metal world it’s bound to be pretty great, but I near lost my mind with the announcement of this one. (I may have audibly shrieked at the time.) The front women of my top two favourite bands singing together! ❤️🔥 It makes me sad that I’ll never get to see them perform it together live and I’m super jealous of those who have! Your face, once again, perfectly encapsulates everything I feel when listening/watching. 😍
And yes, no expense is seemingly ever spared as Within Temptation have developed their production and music videos over time - they’re always top notch. There are a couple of videos of the ‘making of’ this video, and one of their accompanying photoshoot which are fun to watch too.
I am SO HAPPY that you got to this video! Thank You!
Awesome as always, Elizabeth. Much love and alliance for the 'FeMetal Sisterhood' ! 🤘
Best Within Temptation song ever. Thank you so much for this one!
Loved your analysis. I guess this track is one of the best pieces that this genre ever delivered.
a great Nightwish song you should check out is Sacrament in the Wilderness. From 1999's Oceanborn album, Tarja's voice is so powerful in it.
I fully second this recommendation - but the correct title is "Sacrament of Wilderness" -, also since "Oceanborn" is still my overall favourite and by far most-played Nightwish-album. Here's the official music video: ua-cam.com/video/4giSbC9BQLs/v-deo.html (Low picture resolution, but perfect sound.) If it has to be a live version, it should be this official one: ua-cam.com/video/uiOCLVpJvRg/v-deo.html
Oh my god! You chose the perfect song!!! I am so happy for this analysis 😊❤
Aaaaaaaaaaaawww, you look so happy ❤️. 'Our' Tarja is fabulous and Sharon also. They really make a damn excellent duo.
I always get chills at that last note
You definitely made me notice things about the both of the video and the song I hadn’t noticed before. I love you enthusiasm! Thank you for your kind words at the end. I’m such a fan of both of the singers in this video.
Tarja and Sharon duet was worth the wait -- great song and video to match
Click. Like. Watch. Can't resist. I see WT, I must listen, whatever it is. Great analysis, Elizabeth.
Interview Tarja 🥰🥰🥰
so glad you did this one. I always get chills with this one as well
Please consider reacting to TUOMAS HOLOPAINEN - A LIFETIME OF ADVENTURE from his 2014 solo album 'Music Inspired by the Life and Times of Scrooge' a graphic novel by Don Rosa.
Recorded in London with an orchestra.
Vocals by Johanna Kurkela, Mrs. Holopainen. Beautiful! Different from Nightwish but as good.
Backround info: Tuomas Holopainen and Don Rosa interviewed by Radio Nova parts 1 & 2,
only 5 minutes altogether.
This!
Excellent suggestion. I concur. 👍
Oh, I'm SOOOO EXCITED to hear this!
Love the commarty you are doing.. Keep them comming :D
Female metal singers supremacy 🙇♀🙏🏽🧎♀the way I am simping for both Tarja and Sharon, absolute legends
Yeah! I was waiting for this one!
Been waiting for this one for a while. Looking forward to Elizabeth’s reaction.
This is so much music and I love that you picked this song. This is so smooth and with your analysis this song even sounds better afterwards. Can't wait for your Skunk Anansie review or maybe a surprise Nina Hagen one.
I would love to see her react to Skin...Great voice...
i hope you'll react to more studio stuff from tarja, when you said her voice had more 'loft' i was like 'ah yes this is the word i've been looking for'. it is always hard for me to put in words what tarja's voice sounds like(especially on early nightwish albums). yes it has a dark rich colour but her voice sounds like it's coming from a place i don't know how to describe xD i'm just a layman when it comes to music but i enjoy her vocals immensely.
Sharon singing Faster while watching the isle of man motorcycle racing video was so powerful. That's how I was introduced to the band, it haunted me until I looked it up. Glad I did. I've been stuck on Robert Plant's song Ship of Fools, that would be a cool review if you haven't done it yet.
I love symphonic metal! Nightwish and Within Temptation are amazing! Nothing as beautiful as a female voice over this type of music! Your explanation of what I am hearing is great. As a guitarist, I am more focused on the guitar parts. That's where my ears go automatically. I love both Sharon's and Tarja's voices. Just majestic!
That was so stinking awesome!!! Love these two jamming together!
I remember first stumbling on Within Temptation - Mother Earth back in mid 2007ish after finding The Agonist. Found them on some obscure metal message board recommending awesome female metal vocalists and it linked some horrible pixelated version of the music video. Glad to see that they're still kicking ass!
When I tell you this was a legendary duet, it was a LEGENDARY duet. SUCH a big collaboration back in 2013 (?)
