"Meadows of Heaven" is one of the best Anette's performances, an epic ballad. You should listen to it
Agreed!
"Rest Calm" rather
And the live version of that one is gorgeous.
That's a very beautiful song, I wish it's going to be on Chase's list. 😊
Let loose the mermaids is great too
Two Anette songs that I can recommend is "Rest calm" and "Turn loose the mermaids". And just like all Anette songs, I prefer them in the studio.
I just listened to Rest Calm after a long time and noticed one thing. That song would perfectly fit on some older Sonata Arctica album. I can totaly hear Tony´s voice during the whole chorus" Every little memory resting calm in me..."
Meadows of Heaven, The Escapist and Rest Calm are up there as well.
The ending of Meadows is her at her best imo.
The crow, the owl and the dove is also very underrated.
Valdemar Partanen I honestly prefer sundown over turn loose the mermaids
@@Triskaan The Escapist quite literally escapes everyone. Rarely anyone mentions it.
the two albums with anette are the best nightwish ones tbh, i wish people would get more into them. yes, it’s mind blowing to see how amazing they are live with floor, but there are details that don’t translate to a live performance, i wish people would start giving studio versions more of a shot.
I love Annette's vocals, I think she's my personal favorite Nightwish singer.
Nightwish with Annette
The Crow, The Owl and The Dove (and its equivalent by the Imaginaerum movie Deeper Down)
Turn loose the mermaids
Meadows of heaven
Are big 3 from Annette
And also: Rest Calm
The Crow, The Owl* and The Dove
The Crow, the Owl and the Dove, Rest Calm, and Meadows of Heaven are her best 3 powerful songs imo
This! Plus Cadence
And Slow Love Slow
+Bye bye beautiful, Escapist, Eva, Sahara...
Tarja, Anette and Floor have different colours in their vocals and Nightwish evolve gaining a lot with it! We as fans also won that evolution is what make us come back for more... always different but always Nigthwish.
People can not deny that the Anette years were commercially the bands most successful years and both albums were all killer and no filler!
True, her live performances were her weakness though.
@@pro-v7500 not necessarily true about live stuff, yes she had bad performances but she generally was great and had great live performances, the reason for her bad performances was that the heavy schedule of tour (specially her last tour with the band ) really had bad effect on her general health and vocal cords, when Annette was healthy she was killer live singer.
Edit: some of her reputation of bad live singer come from an unjust accusation of some peoples who were not happy that she did not sang some older operatic stuff live which was by choice and design of the whole band.
@@m_nivon1652 I appreciate the thoughtful reply. I agree, and I didn’t say that she was bad at live performances. I just said that was her weakness [as NW’s vocalist]. Everyone has a weakness, even floor.
This was more due to it being the best song writing years than Annette. Not to bash on her, i don't dislike her, but it was the songs themselves that made Imaginarium and Dark Passion Play so good.
Thanks to Tuomas, not Annette. Her live performances were simply embarrassing, every single one of them.
The video is inspired by a very famous painting in Finland, Wounded Angel by Hugo Simberg 1903...he never gave any explanation of the painting or even a name to it, it has just been called Wounded Angel.
if you google "The Wounded Angel" , you´ll find more about the painting, which is so dear to us Finns
I love Hugo Simberg. The garden of death is my favourite.
Also the great thing about art is that everyone can interpret it the way they want. I see the wounded angel as a metaphor for religion being blind and wounded.
I go to the Ateneum museum all the time and I spend hours sitting there staring at it, drinking it all in and I always come away with different feelings. It is a great classical art museum, highlyly recommend it.
@@mpark6142 I was almost saying it is like our Mona Lisa :)
react to "The Crow, The Owl and The Dove" - great ballad, composed by Marco.
To discover Annette's vocals more, I highly recommend her current band, "The Dark Element". Also, her voice really shines in ballads, like "Meadows of Heaven" or "Turn loose the mermaids". Oh, and "Eva". That one is a tear jerker.
And here's The Dark Element: ua-cam.com/video/8tHdSv9TmdI/v-deo.html
She also recently released an amazing album in collaboration with Russell Allen (Symphony X/Adrenaline Mob) named World Apart through Frontier Records.
She is so wonderful in ballads, but I really like her in intense rock vocals songs as well.
"Eva" is so simple, but the innosence of he voice makes it special: one of my NW favorites. Maybe not for metalheads, they don't all like ballads.
Everyone suggesting Turn Loose the Mermaids makes me so happy. It’s such a beautiful song and it’s a shame it’ll most likely never be performed live
it is, I started to learn guitar this last year and this was my first fingerstyle song ...i played it everyday for months, looove the lyrics
I love Jukka's energy man, look at how he's smashing the drums!
Chase, believe me when I say that "The Crow the Owl and the Dove" is one of Nightwishes' most intimate songs they have ever done. It is a duet with Anette and Marko and Troy sings in it too. Be sure to watch the video of the winner of the official fan made video contest--it might even make your eyes a little runny!
I'll second "The Crow, the Owl and the Dove" anytime. Didn't know about the fan video. That's great! Thanks for the hint.
@@brianriis3466 anytime my friend
Bring tissues! Or at least absorbent sleeves
Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice! Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice. I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years.
DIANA ANKUDINOVA TALENTED YOUNG SINGER💥🎤💥🎤💥
Diana 🔥🔥🔥
Annette was where I started and she will always be my favorite out of the three. Gateway to symphonic metal all together
I started with Tarja, but Anette is also my favorite of the three.
Q: "What is the easiest song you have ever written?"
Tuomas: "Amaranth, I wrote it in 2 hours"
UA-cam: 111.000.000 views and counting...
Excellent B-side tracks with Anette as well-- Escapist and The Heart Asks Pleasure First.
I really hate when some nightwish vocalist fans talk more about vocalists than the song itself, there is not a song with Anette that is bad, even when dark passion play wasn't written for her range, the nightwish songs are good because are good compositions. Others bands couldn't survive a change of vocalist because of this little detail.
If Tank was watching this he would have paused and have a look of bewilderment and astonishment because Emppu is not playing....wait for it.....his EV-1.
Yeah. Because he....wait for it... forgot it at home. lol
This is ESP Eclipse. Emppu must buy this guitar in Los Angeles 😁
An ordinary ESP that has a story to tell. Just wondering if Emppu still has it?
One of my favourite songs with her is ”Rest calm”, I feel like it’s really underrated but I recommend you listen to it and other Anette songs too!
Please do Rest Calm Chase, I want to know what you think of the structure
amazing song
"The Crow, the Owl and the Dove" is a great song with Anette and then with the fanvideo. A masterpeace!
Well if TankTheTech sees this i guess he will get a heart attack when he sees emppu on something else then a ESP EV-1!
Oh, you caught that too!
Should we go tell him? Or should we... NOT?😜
👋🇮🇹🖖
@@flaviovergottini652 well if i know the internett i guess some one already did that! :P
@@knuttheodoringil21 🤣🤣🤣
You're too right!
Have a damn good year, dude!
@@flaviovergottini652 you to mate! 😎
LOL "... I got nothing better to do, let's go back." Keep 'em coming, Chase.
I also strongly recommend Anette's new band "the dark element".
Yes!! 🤩Epic guitars by Jani Liimatainen (Ex-Sonata Arctica) and great vocals by Anette, she truly found her voice in The Dark Element. I suggest these songs:
"The Pallbearer Walks Alone" (Lyric Video)
"Dead To Me" (Official Lyric Video)
"Songs The Night Sings" (Official Music Video)
"Not Your Monster" (Official Music Video)
Yes yes and yes! Not Your Monster, The Ghost And The Reaper, Songs The Night Sings 🤘
Have you heard the album she did with Russell Allen last year ? Worth a listen
ua-cam.com/video/6QHqQj0WrcA/v-deo.html
I remember reading a bunch of nightwish interviews at the time and the choice for Annette was very very concious. They wanted a singer that was the exact opposite of tarja, and the songs on those albums really reflect that I think
This was the first song I heard from Nightwish, was a fan instantly.
Slow, Love, Slow is another fantastic Annette song! Definitely recommend the live version from the Montreaux Jazz Festival. She’s very much in her element on that one :)
agreed...actually I hate Floor singing "Annetts songs"...I love Imaginaerum and dont like Floor singing those songs...well, dont like Nightwish at all anymore
And I definitely recommend "Rest Calm" (there are no official live versions). One of my all-time favourites, featuring Anette and Marko. :) Heavy and soft at the same time.
Now we need the band amaranth to sing a song called nightwish
*Nice idea.....but the band is written : A M A R A N T H E .*
@@NicholasCorvin Easy, then they make a song named Nightwishe... Or Nightwis, whichever you prefer.
@@naphackDT Indeed. Definitely Nightwishe, imo
@@naphackDT *Easy also, I didn't criticise the idea itself, just mentioned there's an E behind the band's name....btw, the thing would be indeed funnier if the band's name would be without the E, but it isn't....and adding an e to Nightwish.....does not make it so funny like the original way that David mentioned....*
Great idea! Someone should tag @ElizeRyd in this
The angel Anette in Amaranth , one of my top beloved songs ... ! She rules ! Jukka at drums is real badass and the bassline too ! Marko nails it ! Classic goth , prog metal , from first era sound , but some differend vibes in it ! More dark ... ! Passion played! This song is a gem !
"Escapist" is a great Anette song.
Seconded!
I love it
Tuomas said in an interview that Amaranth was the song which took the least time to write the music for: two hours (just for the music, not counting the lyrics)
Imho, she shines on the softer, beautiful but emotionally filled storytelling songs. Meadows of Heaven, Eva, The Crow the Owl and the Dove, Slow Love Slow, Let Loose the Mermaids and The Heart Ask Pleasure First come to mind. Rest Calm is one step harder but very good. And For the Heart I Once Had is a pretty good rockish song. So quite a lot to dive into also with her "originals". Studio versions, of course.
NIGHTWISH - Planet Hell (OFFICIAL LIVE) with Anette!
A more unknown song Nightwish did with Anette is a song called "Eva." It's very simple but sadly beautiful like The Islander or While Your Lips Are Still Red (though I prefer those to Eva).
I had to check the cover done by Suite Clarity again before I watch this reaction.
It is well done in their own style.
Agreed. 😊
Agreed, too, those young musicians made a pretty good job on that cover.
Those kids are pretty good 😎🤘🔥
Agreed - they knocked that out of the ballpark. And I like the drums on that cover.
Anette with The Dark Element 💪
Rest Calm my favorite from Anette and Marko. Also Slow, Love, Slow shows a great side to both the band and Anette
If you want Anette are her best, check Meadows of Heaven, especially the end of the song.
*Definitely not....I'm hearing from Anette just "Meadows of Heaven".....but there's massive vocal work from a choir female vocalist and a choir male vocalist...."Amaranth" clearly delivering more & better from Anette...at least these are my thoughts about it......*
agree, I recommend "Turn Loose The Mermaids" a good choice to hear Anette.
and I love "Escapist" we need some reactions to this one, no one does :( ua-cam.com/video/eKuCFk1j_Io/v-deo.html
Happy to see you get to this one man, this is the first NW song I'd ever heard. Rainy day stuck at a friend's house, literally just sitting watching the pouring rain, and then buddy comes in with his phone "hey man, look what I just found, check this out"
Started a lifelong obsession with this song
Nice, more of Anette please. I would recommend "Slow Love Slow" live Montreux Jazz Festival 2012. There is not many good live recordings from Anette ere Nightwish, but this one is really good. Also I absolutely love Emppu's solo it this.
I second this!
I'm third it.
I fourth it.
Hello! Thank you for the video! Please react to Wicked Game songs, Human, Take On Me🌞🌞🌞DIANA ANKUDINOVA is a talented young singer. I would like to know your opinion. I think you will be surprised. Diana has a very unusual voice and artistic presentation for her age.🌹🌹🌹 Thanks in advance
In addition to the fact that *Diana* *Ankudinova* has a beautiful and recognizable voice, she can play very low notes (contralto), which makes her unique (especially considering her young age)! I recommend to get acquainted with the work of this unusual singer. 💎💎💎
Diana Ankudinova 😊👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥🎉💫💯💯
1000000%!!!🔥🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶......Amazing DIANA---Beauty in every minute!!!
Diana Ankudinova 👍👍👍👍
cool to shine the light on anette. she has a great voice too. thank you chase also for your kind words and HADGD too.
Amaranth was my first introduction to Nightwish back in 2010, oddly enough introduced to me by my roommate when I lived in Japan. Fell in love with them immediately. Even now I still hold them as my favorite band, and this song has a special place in my heart for both the nostalgic value but also because it is an amazing song!
I love Eva from the same album, very different.
Also I recommend the Heart Asks Pleasure First as it's among one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. Background the music wasn't wrote by Tuomas as such (so Many thanks to Michael Nyman for his vision and creating the original track) but the lyrics and arrangements was all Tuomas.
It's absolutely wonderful. Seconded!
I had a very similar smile on my face during the chorus at the 9:52ish mark. This was one of the first Nightwish songs I ever heard and I’ve always loved this chorus.
The Anette era is such an important part of the band's history. The only time I've had the pleasure to see them live was with her in a small venue and it felt like the biggest early 80s rock concert ever - with masterful orchestration of course.
Dark Passion Play is a very special album, and wouldn't be the same without her.
This popped up on my "Recommended" list back in 2007 from a band I'd never heard of and me randomly clicking on this video was the start of my Nightwish journey. I was hooked right away! :) It's interesting looking back 13 years later and where the band has come. For me, Floor is voice that really ties their music together across all their eras, but it all started for me with Anette and this song.
9:07 love those Easter-Egg-Kind-of-things in music you can sense the first time you hear a song, then find and appreciate the second time...and then becomes a key point in the whole song for only you and yourself only to enjoy every other time you listen to it.
The Dark Element, please!!!
As a quite new Nightwish fan, I love listening to all of their singers. There are differences, as it should be. This song and music video is one of my favourites.
I really like when you're sharing your thoughts of the music in these reaction videos. You obviously know a lot more than some of us who don't work or have any musical education. With that said, I recommend a reaction to Majestica and their music video "Above the sky" or "Ghost of Marley" (from their Christmas album 2020). I think there is a lot for you to pick up, because you'll see how talented all band members are. Especially the lead singer's vocal range!
I tell you what I think Annette is so underrated live. I still listen to her versions of wishmaster, sacrament of wilderness and dark chest of wonders regularly.
PS I’d love to see you check out her new band called the Dark Element;)
First thank you Chase for Nightwish Saturday’s. I look forward to it ever week. As a big Nightwish fan I never want to get into Tarja/Anette/Floor debate. Anette is great in the studio and Tarja and Floor are amazing everywhere. I love all Nightwish songs and eras without question. This is one at Anette’s best vocals I feel on an incredible song written by the master. I will say that I love music ( why I love your reactions so much ) and I never like to hear new lead singers doing the original lead sings songs. I don’t mine new songs with a new lead singer but the old ones belong to the original singer. Floor is the only time this has ever changed for me. I love Tarja and will always listen to her singing Nightwish but I also love every time Floor sings a Tarja song live. I have the original versions and the newer live versions with Floor. Floor just blows me away every time she opens her angelic mouth. All that being said I think your idea of listen to all versions of the songs is a great idea. Not to compare ( stay away from that ) but to see the difference and wonder they all bring. Slay The Dreamer and Dead Boy’s Poem are two I think are like completely different songs based on Tarja or Floor singing them. Thank you for your channel and keep up the great word my friend. You are awesome doing reactions and the best on UA-cam doing them.
Finally Anette 💙🤘🏻
Meadows of Heaven... Rest Calm.. The Crow The Owl and The Dove.. Turn Loose The Mermaids.. Eva.. are great Anette tracks(studio of course)
Yeah, Anette and live, that was the real problem with her.
Aw meadows of heaven, like your first ever reaction!!! In the garden, thank you Tank 👍
You gotta do “Slow, Love, Slow” live at the Montreux Jazz Festival. The best Annette live performance IMO and it’s a song unlike anything else in Nightwish’s catalogue.
You should get Tank to react to this and see if he notices Emmpu is not using his EV-1 in this video (apparently the story goes that they filmed this in California and the EV-1 was held up in transit and Emmpu had to borrow the ESP Eclipse II fir the video). 😃
Probably one of the few videos not to have the EV-1 in it!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Annette was a fantastic studio vocalist and I believe her lack of live experience was what brought her undone as she couldn’t keep up with the gruelling touring schedule vocally.
It is no way a reflection in her abilities as a singer because she is a fantastic singer.
I love her vocal work on both Dark Passion Play and Imaginaereum.
Rest Calm
Cadence of her last Breath
Meadows of Heaven
Slow Love Slow
Turn Loose the Mermaids
The Crow, The Owl and The Dove
Eva
Sahara
Pretty much everything she sings (even her version of The Poet & The Pendulum) is Awesome!!!
It was just unfortunate that at the time she was with the band she struggled to perform the songs live. I think it would be a different story now as she has more live experience under her belt.
I wish I lived in a house where I could crank my surround system. This song just begs for it!
This was the first Nightwish song I ever heard. I’ve been hooked since
always great to see anette nightwish also. lady have great voice and anette era come imaginerium album what is choose best nightwish album, also movie come out. so anette have huge meaning nightwish history. thanx to great reaction like always chase and here we go glorious year 2021.
Slow Love Slow(studio version). A fairy jazz bop.
It's nice that someone reacts who knows what he's talking about! THX for this❤
❤️
amaranth is one of my favorites songs from nightwish!
What? Chase is evolving! Pausing Chase evolved into Rewinding Chase!
Loved this reaction. At your first PAISE you got the basis of the story. A nice lovely fallen angel and innocent children being overrun by malevolence and evil of the townsfolk. The mix of tone was perfection.
I always appreciate that you're explaining what's going on with vocals and instruments and how all those little pieces are creating musical composition. Keep those videos coming, bro! Happy 2021 🙃
Hey Chase. You and Tank have definitely helped us get through a pretty tough year. You've given me a whole new appreciation for Nightwish and their music, and I discovered Unleash the Archers solely because of your reactions. Please keep safe, keep reacting and have a damn good year!
*Chase, you're clearly the type of man, who's interested in the details....you can find also the "Instrumental version" and the "Orchestral version" of "Amaranth" on Nightwish's official UA-cam channel.....here the links:*
*"instrumental version":* ua-cam.com/video/F0BdKTYWCjw/v-deo.html
*"orchestral version" :* ua-cam.com/video/6OIYYpqPVPw/v-deo.html
*.......Hope, you have wonderful New Year.....Greetings from Germany & stay safe.*
This is the song that got me into Nightwish!
Great reaction as always
Okay...that was a surprise! I had only heard Anette live, which didn't really do it for me, but this was a total goosebump production! Thank you Chase, I love it when you get going and you can't decide whether to air keyboard, drum or guitar/bass :D You rock!
My suggestion for your next Nightwish reaction is Last of the wilds (live), it’s instrumental.
*My suggestion is at least a double reaction......live performance does not include special instrument [electric kantele] from the studio version.........important fact.*
Well make that a triple reaction then because there is a version with guest vocals and it's amazing:
ua-cam.com/video/rA-XIXy5vw4/v-deo.html
Always a pleasure to watch your detailed reactions. You really use your musical skills to let us appreciate Nightwish pieces even more.
🙏🙏🙏
Yeah Anette is very good singer and song rocks!
I am happy to have all three Main vocalist in Nightwish history.
"Whoever brings the night" was my introduction to Nightwish, fricking love that song so much! The albums Anette worked on are so incredibly good, Imaginaerum being my favorite from Nightwish. Hopefully you check out "The crow, the owl and the dove", "Turn loose the mermaids", "Rest calm" or, again, "Whoever brings the night".
edit: OH OH OH. "Slow love slow" is niiiiiice!
46k! 👏👏👏 Palm muting has become the identity of this channel as much as EV-1 does for Tank. Soon there will be vibrato gang or tapped bends gang which you also mentioned a lot on this channel, but maybe most haven't picked 'em up. 50k will be here soon, I'm counting with ya :)
I appreciate you like crazy
You said it well at the beginning, it is a "pop-oriented" voice, but it is a nice contrast with the heavier sound of the instruments. And it always drives me "mad" that people say Annette was "fine" but not a good fit for Nightwish because of the pop-voice. Wasn't the contrast between Operatic and Metal style what made Nightwish who they are? They quite litterally embodied the "contrast". As a former singer, let me tell this: Nightwish songs are HARD to sing, not only from a tecnique standpoint, but also because of the stamina.
Take a very well trained singer, one that never misses a note, a human auto-tune, and make her sing a Nightwish song: 90% of the songs, at the end she will be tired as if she just finished running. Because you have to be used to sing that kinf of Music. I am a fanboy of Floor, but she wasn't born-ready to sing this stuff, she was good to go with Nighwish because she used to sing similar stuff all her life with her other bands. Annette simply wasn't "trained" to sing this stuff, but it doen't mean she would never be able to (vocal range differencesc aside).
I invite everyone to listen to the concert Nightwish did at the Montreaux Jazz festival (yes Chase, they committed the worst of the sins: Jazz), and listen to her.
Yep that festival is great, but Over the Hills and Far Away is a horrendous rendition there. Planet Hell from there is a must though. It's the one Tarja song Anette made her own awesome version of. I wish Anette would sung Poet and the Pendulum there when she had the pro-shot because she has nailed that song live before. Also, Slow, Love, Slow is perfect for Anette.
"And it always drives me "mad" that people say Annette was "fine" but not a good fit for Nightwish because of the pop-voice. Wasn't the contrast between Operatic and Metal style what made Nightwish who they are? They quite litterally embodied the "contrast". "
THIS. ONE. HUNDRED. PERCENT.
And not just that, but the fact that Nightwish made Anette's voice SHINE the way it did . If people don't like Anette's voice that's perfectly fine, but you can only wonder about people that say her voice doesn't fit at all -- sounds like they've got mental associations with "pop"-sounding voices they need to work out themselves
@@ciflores0 - You kind of make the point that Anette was not a good fit with Nightwish. As noted here she usually is fine on a recording. But on stage, in concert she was not up to the task with singing live. Live she would never have the power in her voice as she has here.
@@dennisweifenbach2647 I didn't make that point at all? But even then, she wasn't a fit when it came to the concerts, but when people say she didn't fit in because of her pop-voice... it just sounds like people that aren't quite as experimental in their music tastes as they think they are.
Anette was very familiar singing rock and hard rock before joining Nightwish. Yes she has a bright vocal colour, but her attitude as a singer is very rock. It sometimes early on ruined her soft ballads when she sang them as rock, "Ever Dream" is a good example of it. She could sing it soft and relaxed already before joining Nightwish as dhe does in her demo tape, but she ruins it on stage early on. And later in her career sings it so wonderfully on stage.
This is one of my favorites. In my top5 Nightwish songs.
Two great live Anette/Nightwish performances: Nemo ua-cam.com/video/bulgNm4ng7c/v-deo.html; and, Slow Love Slow ua-cam.com/video/6k1jeJBocb8/v-deo.html. Happy New Year!
Chase, Since you are going back and looking at alternate versions of songs, I'd recommend looking at Tarja's version of Ghost Love Score. The arrangement is completely different; so you will really get to see how Tuomas makes changes depending on who he is working with. I'd also recommend the music video for The Islander. It's a fantastic piece of art, and one of the finest music videos I've ever seen. Also you might want to take a look at the acoustic versions of Nemo and Where's the Heart that Floor and Troy did for Planet Rock.
*Where's the different arrangement in "Ghost Love Score" ?? They are using the same backing tracks....the only thing that's different is Floor and her extra vocals at the end [Floorgasm]....and that she's staying on stage.....of course...*
@@NicholasCorvin They have done a few things with the track, among them lowering the volume of the choir
@@darkiee69 on the wacken version yes. But Buenos Aires 18 the background is higher. Wacken is a bit special as it was outside and its a festival
@@Honken55 Do you mean the one from dec 15th 2012? That's when Floor was still, more or less, fresh of the plane. It was after that that changes was made to let Floor have more space, and more say in how she wanted the songs to be.
@@darkiee69 no I mean 2018
You'll need to do Crewish version of this song. Now that Nightwish can't tour because of Covid their crew made their own project of Nightwish covers.
You are my Favorite yt commentator!!! I just love all singers what they have had.....
I like how it's almost like Chase in in class, putting his hand up before he starts talking :D
Going to say it again - Slow Love Slow live at Montreux :)
This song was the quickest for Tuomas to write (the music before lyrics). In an interview he said it took less than 2,5 hrs to finish it. And about the video: There is a painting from 1903 by a Finnish artist Hugo Simberg which clearly has given the leading idea to the video. The painting is called "The Wounded Angel". Check it up :)
I love how this song starts softly...
...then with a bang...
...THEN WITH ANOTHER BANG! 👀😂😂😂
They have a lot of good songs in the Annette era. Slow Love Slow, Meadows of Heaven, and my favorite Rest Calm (unfortunately that song has no official video... but it is a masterpiece). Two of their best albums came from the Annette era so that says something.
Rest Cam is awesome 🤘🏻
this one used to be one of my favorite Nightwish songs... Now I like it even more, thanks. Of course now I have many other favorites since I know better the Nightwish works... specially the more recents with Floor... Your reactions are part of the reason why... thanks again
I have loved discovering Nightwish 1 song a week with you. While I appreciate other songs more, I think that this is the best one I have heard to just really get into it for the catchiness and ease of just rocking out to. Awesome stuff.
one of the first Nightwish songs I have ever heard
remember listing to it for days
One of my favs! Such an uplifting song.
I love the video whose imagery seems a fusion of the Wounded Angel by the Finnish painter Hugo Simberg and the short story A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I'm sure it is not accidental.
Ive heard most nightwish songs 100+ times and I can’t believe the stuff I’ve missed until I found your channel. Very cool
Regarding first few words of the song:
Tuomas = Thomas = Apostle who doubted resurrection of Jesus.
the believable apostle..... funny how the vatican excluded his gospel!!! (?) but it's in the Nag Hammadi library!
Thank you for appreciating the Anette years with Nightwish. Possibly their two best albums were recorded with her. She really came into her own with "The Dark element". Please check her out.
Great reaction, as always. I'm so happy to see someone reacts to an Anette's song. I'm a fan of the band since Tarja's era and already knew and loved Floor before she joined Nightwish, however I'm also a huge huge fan of Anette, and sometimes I see that she do not receive the recognition she deserves to. She's a talent and very capable singer with a beautiful voice. In my opinion, if you're looking for live performances of another Anette's song you should listen to 'Sahara'. People still calling her more a pop kind of singer as if it was a bad thing, but I really think that she rocks and brings some agressive quality to live shows too, that Floor usually brings indeed but w/ too much perfection in her technique, sounding overcontroled for me (not compete with voices too, of course). Anette has a natural angelic tone in her voice, but also belts a lot and brings energy and passion in her live moments.
Anytime I see a reaction to this song I have to point out an interesting version of this song called "Reach". Its the demo of the song recorded with Marco on vocals with the same music/verses and a different chorus. Definitely worth checking out.
Amaranth is a wonderfull piece. Fantastic, poetic lyrics, very powerfull guitar, and if you pay attention, such a wonderfull piece of orchestration going on in the back ground, especially the strings during the chorus.
If you want to go for more annette, Turn loose the mermaids is a very nice track !
Thanks for another cool breakdown, Chase !
This was super impressive. Really enjoyed this one. Super pop-sounding, but no less awesome for it. Loved your insight as always. And the video was realy cool thematically and fit so well with the sound of the song.
