    You are asking if Floor could like that from she was a child. Nobody actually can do that. Floor are very very well trained and has been training and challenging her self for many years. She calls herself for a nerd - a voice nerd, that just keeps on expanding her limits. She has been professionally trained in a music conservatorium having learned all the different techniques, but she is also enventing new techniques herself.
    That is why she is outstanding - the voice of the century does not come easy

    Floor can hit all of Tarja's parts easily and with less loss of diction. She is also capable of growling, raspy rock chest vocals etc. In my opinion Floor has Tarja on all levels.

    • @marlonlx
      @marlonlx 3 роки тому +2

      Floor can most definitely NOT sing all of Tarja's parts easily. Decently, sometimes. Her strength is in her belting and chest voice, but she always starts losing quality going to head voice or slipping into operatic singing. That is the main reason why her voice suits the DPP and Imaginaerum songs the best.

      @Spikey09Ca 3 роки тому +4

      @@marlonlx Tarja's voice is nowhere near the quality of Floors operatically, the only people who think it is are people who are emotionally connected to her singing from the start. Whereas I was there at the time was Tarja was lead singer and thought she sounded fake and too muffled with no diction, Floor eclipses her in every way, not that Tarja isn't a decent singer but she was never in Floor's league.

    • @marlonlx
      @marlonlx 3 роки тому +1

      Chris Webb You can certainly say Tarja’s english isn’t the best and that she chose to sacrifice diction instead of quality of sound, but I have to strongly disagree with everything else you said. I can only speak about what I’ve heard of Floor with Nightwish, since I was never the biggest After Forever fan and didn’t get into Revamp, but I always felt she’s less comfortable going into head voice and operatic parts. Her voice sounds much thinner and less strong. Maybe it’s the fact that she usually stays in chest/mix most of the time and then the sudden jump to head voice makes it sound weaker. People love to put Tarja down to lift Floor and I think that’s an insult to both.

    Honestly, this is the one night wish song I like studio over live. The live version cuts out a good 6 minutes of beautiful instrumentation and a soliloquy that makes me cry every time I hear it. Definitely a highlight of Imagenaurum for me.
    You HAVE to listen to the studio version, but the rest of the songs lyrics are as follows:
    I see a slow, simple youngster by a busy street, with a begging bowl in his shaking hand.
    Trying to smile but hurting infinitely. Nobody notices.
    I do, but walk by.
    An old man gets naked and kisses a model-doll in his attic.
    It’s half-light and he’s in tears.
    When he finally comes his eyes are cascading.
    I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley. He tries to bite me.
    All pride has left his wild drooling eyes.
    I wish I had my leg to spare.
    A mother visits her son, smiles to him through the bars.
    She’s never loved him more.
    An obese girl enters an elevator with me.
    All dressed up fancy, a green butterfly on her neck.
    Terribly sweet perfume deafens me.
    She’s going to dinner alone.
    That makes her even more beautiful.
    I see a model’s face on a brick wall.
    A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill.
    A city that worships flesh.
    The 1st thing I ever heard was a wandering man telling his story
    It was you, the grass under my bare feet
    The campfire in the dead of the night
    The heavenly black of sky and sea
    It was us
    Roaming the rainy roads, combing the gilded beaches
    Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn
    Bathing in places no-one’s seen before
    Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island
    Clad in nothing but the surf - beauty’s finest robe
    Beyond all mortality we are, swinging in the breath of nature
    In early air of the dawn of life
    A sight to silence the heavens
    I want to travel where life travels, following its permanent lead
    Where the air tastes like snow music
    Where grass smells like fresh-born Eden
    I would pass no man, no stranger, no tragedy or rapture
    I would bathe in a world of sensation
    Love, Goodness, and Simplicity
    ( While violated and imprisoned by technology )
    The thought of my family’s graves was the only moment I used to experience true love
    That love remains infinite, as I’ll never be the man my father is
    How can you “just be yourself” when you don’t know who you are?
    Stop saying “I know how you feel”
    How could anyone know how another feels?
    Who am I to judge a priest, beggar, whore, politician, wrongdoer?
    I am, you are, all of them already
    Dear child, stop working, go play
    Forget every rule
    There’s no fear in a dream
    “Is there a village inside this snowflake?”
    A child asked me “What’s the color of our lullaby?”
    I’ve never been so close to truth as then
    I touched its silver lining
    Death is the winner in any war
    Nothing noble in dying for your religion
    For your country
    For ideology, for faith
    For another man, yes
    Paper is dead without words
    Ink idle without a poem
    All the world dead without stories
    Without love and disarming beauty
    Careless realism costs souls
    Ever seen the Lord smile?
    All the care for the world made Beautiful a sad man?
    Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks?
    Oh, how rotten your pre-apocalypse is
    All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground
    I see all those empty cradles and wonder
    If man will ever change
    I, too, wish to be a decent manboy but all I am
    Is smoke and mirrors
    Still given everything, may I be deserving
    And there forever remains that change from G to E minor.

    Floor has such a great range. Given she's a soprano she starts in a really low register, but can reach high operatic tones. She can perform Tarja and Anette songs equally well. I think she's able to portray more emotion in her voice than Tarja's purely operatic vocal.

    Marco has a great voice. He replaced the original bassist by the 3rd or 4th album and IMO was the most valuable addition to the band due to him being able to offer his voice alongside the female vocals.
    There are a ton of Nightwish songs that display his voice. If you really want to check out how well he can belt out check out "Phantom of the Opera", which is a cover of the title song of the musical of the same name. It is also a good song to see Tarja's heavily operatic vocals on their best display.
    Also a fun fact is that Marco is actually quite old and in his mid 50's. He started his career in the 80's in the Finnish heavy metal band Tarot with his brother.

    This song is about Walt Whitman's Poem - Song of myself.
    To me, that means someone with a "great heart" is hurt emotional, but doesn't say anything ("silent suffering") and fakes a smile until it's over, and then just pours everything out without anyone knowing ("sung in silence")

    "The middle one that nobody liked" well I liked her (Anette) and Imaginaerum is my favourite Nightwish album (movie based on album is great too). Anette was really good and she did grat job, but if you compare her to Floor ofcourse Floor is better but it doesn't mean Anette is bad! She is just completely different, she sings different than floor and Tarja ang have completely different voice, it doesn't mean she can't sing.

      Anette was great, I love both the Imaginearum album and film.
      Floor is unbelievable just look at wacken 2013.

      Yeah, Imaginaerum is arguably *the* *most* *balanced* - and therefore the best - Nightwish album. And Tuomas wrote the songs specifically for Anette's voice. Floor *is* superior in vocal ability, *and* I do enjoy Endless Forms Most Beautiful immensely, but it's *a* *bit* too over-the-top for its own good.

      You like something or not.
      And i guess, as an outsider cause im not a nightwish fan, Anetta had the bad luck her voice is to different from Tarja's and the fans couldnt get used to it.
      Floor comes close and can do a lot of stuff Tarja can. (And more)
      So the fans favor her over Anette.

    Floor V Tarja, my opinion is that Tarja has an ethereal, haunting quality that I have never heard another vocalist match. Tarja's natural voice is better than Floor's...BUT Floor is much better is so many other ways, and I prefer her! 1. Floor has powerful stage presence that I think few professionals equal. She enchants, instantly.
    2. In technical precision. I feel like she has trained more than Tarja. She hits each pitch perfectly, unmatched breath control, impeccable timing, dynamics, focus, tone, EVERYTHING. Tarja would slide into a note by accident every once in a while, or lose breath where she shouldn't. She was 95%, Floor is 100%.
    3. She is wildly versatile! She can do the classical, resonance 3 parts (operatic style,) then launch into a feral growl of a line. She gives the music a gut and a power, a fire that Tarja and Anete could never match. Heck, I don't think any other musician could.
    Pairing her with Tuomas' songs... Match made in heaven.

    In alot of ways I don't blame "Tarja" fans for being passionate about defending her. There was a time when I was among them. But then I had to realize that Tarja's time with NIGHTWISH was over. Both sides had moved on in their own way. Tarja and Floor have made their Peace and even performed together. Marco and Floor helped Tarja and a friend of hers put on a Christmas concert. Marco and Floor singing "Ava Maria" and standing next to Tarja for the final singalong. They have moved past the BS. It's time the fans do too.

    At the time when this music was written Tuomas was already in a relationship with his current wife and had been for years. The whole relationship drama is stuff that was mainly coming from Tarja's husband who always did seem quite jealous of her. This song is from the album 'Imaginaerum' which was made into a movie. Originally the idea was to make music videos for all the songs so the story for this record was always there. This song in particular is inspired by a poem by Walt Whitman called 'Song of myself'. :)

    The nightingale reference is (imo) from S.

In that poem Topelius writes about how nightingale is trapped in a cage. It's about being blinded, longing for home, Finland's independence and a lot of symbolism probably only a Finnish person would truly understand.
