The feeling was such when on a winter evening the boys came, wait, two years ago [looks at Tuomas]...?" A: "Yeah." Tu: "Something like that." Ta: "Yes.

yet at that tender age she was already a vocal powerhouse,stupendous. i wish her many more decades of health and happiness. that husband of her's better treat her right.
I love Tarja, she is my favorite singer. Watching this interview feels a bit strange, since I did not know her in the past. Or better: although I knew a few songs from Nightwish, I did not know how she was in the past. I like today`s grown up Tarja, who is a pretty intelligent, charming, attractive and kind person.
@@sweiland75 But he is, he was too shy to ask Tarja to be her girlfriend and it ended very bad! I mean, c'mon, he also didn't have the balls to tell Tarja face to face that she was fired from the band!
How could you not fell in love with her... She was so fresh, so pretty, so pure... That's what happened to Tuomas I think, and that's what happened to Nightwish in the end. That's an only explanation for me, when he finally realised that he lost her... Sorry, that's my opinion...
Dont know bout others, but like em this way actually....no rockstar or megastar vibes at all, just feel like ordinary folks but able to create masterpiece such as Oceanborn 🤘

Angels falls first was send to Spinefarm as Demo CD but was soon to be released as Nightwish debut album. Not bad at all. Oceanborn was very very ambitious project from Tuomas. You really can hear it from first to last second of that masterpiece.
@@OldDumbTeenCommentAccount No periaatteessa molemmista. Kommentti oli Nightwishista, mutta kyllähän tuo aikakin kokonaisuudessaan oli ihan toista kuin tämä nykyinen idiokratia woke sekoiluineen ym.
Pobre Tarja... Minha jovem , tu ainda não sabes, mas em alguns anos, a banda que você faz parte vai dar um pontapé na sua linda but. Mas não se preocupe. Você dará a volta por cima, e continuará brilhando, enquanto sua antiga banda se transformará na versão "O Aprendiz" do Heavy Metal.
Nah, doubt it was hair extensions, it would be too noticable. Hair on average grows about an inch every one or two months, about 6 inches every year. This was in 1998, by End Of Innocence Tuomas' hair reached just above his shoulders and by End Of An Era his hair was already quite long.
De qué hablas? Llevan por lo menos 4 discos de estudios siendo mucho mejores de lo que jamás han sido. La vida evoluciona, la gente va y viene. Si ellos lo superaron los fans también pueden

They were pioneers of creating something new, grandeur and unic and they did it in very young age. The rest is history.
She was 20 at the time of this interview. And so cute and shy. I love her hair like that.
yet at that tender age she was already a vocal powerhouse,stupendous. i wish her many more decades of health and happiness. that husband of her's better treat her right.
oh my god, look at her, I mean look at both of them, SO FREAKING CUTE !
Tarja is so beautiful!
And still is !
Oceanborn is a masterpiece.
Her husband cant even imagine what a lucky he is,i hope she happy with him, Queen
1:50 Tuo's hands are shaking, so cute :)
Tuomas looks like a real life anime character.
My God, they're so young here! So much nostalgia...
Her beauty was...I just can't 😍😖😭

Ooooh my Gooood. Tuomas is FUCKING handsome
Today it closes 20 years from the interview! 20/5/98 .. 20/5/18 and I love you Tarja you look so cute!!
Tarja... so cute!! :-)
Young Tarja is so sweet))
what a cool quality. I can't believe this guy is Tuomas. How fantastically he has changed.
Tuomas is a typical introvert, like Keanu Reeves. Gorgeous too
@Alexander The Great I am Not - so Dont Generelize !
Just because someone does not demand to be the centre of attention does not make them an introvert.
@@sweiland75 But he is, he was too shy to ask Tarja to be her girlfriend and it ended very bad!
I mean, c'mon, he also didn't have the balls to tell Tarja face to face that she was fired from the band!
He definitely looks a lot "Mr Anderson" here xD
Look at Tarja just sitting there being the most gorgeous creature ever to exist on the face of the planet. Well apart from Ann Magret.
Siempre fue tan hermosa Tarja.. Bellisima con todas las letras!!
How could you not fell in love with her...
She was so fresh, so pretty, so pure...
That's what happened to Tuomas I think, and that's what happened to Nightwish in the end. That's an only explanation for me, when he finally realised that he lost her...
Sorry, that's my opinion...
Keep replaying 1:56 or press 4
look at Tarja's face when the interviewer makes beeping noise.. WTF =D
Short hair Tuomas looks like Keanu Reeves. Long hair Tuomas looks like Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp).
Tuomas is like Tuomas and those nobodies can be what ever.
Haha, I was literally thinking this! 🤣
This is like Nightwish merged into an episode of Friends.
Kiitos! Mikä nuoria!
Vanha Nightwish = Upea ja nostalginen elämys.
So much cuteness 😭
I liked it even if I did not understand any thing.
Dont know bout others, but like em this way actually....no rockstar or megastar vibes at all, just feel like ordinary folks but able to create masterpiece such as Oceanborn 🤘
So young!🥰🥰
They were happy together
Impressive video quality for the time
i love herrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
They look so young omg ❤❤❤
Kiitoksia tästä. Olisko ensimmäinen tv-esiintyminen kyseessä.
Entendi tudinho o que eles falaram! A primeira vez que ouvi Nightwish, fiquei encantado.
Kids! I love it!
Tarja is so cute, she reminds me so much of the actress Julia Stiles!
No entiendo ni mierda, pero se ven bellos, hermosos, tan bellos tiempos cuando todo iba bien entre ellos 😭 se extraña eso
Esto es único tio
Those baby faces 🩷...
Guapísimo y tímido 😍😍😍
4:44 WTF??????
wtf with your nickname? uncle?
Very 90s
Back in the days. Everythings was so fun and "innocent". And not all about money.
Marcelo was not still around! ;)
so you believe that letter@@ankihansen2489
Tuomas looks like a combination of Keanu Reeves and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
sure does. interviews with him indicate that he is a respectful deeply introspective person yet the way he fired Tarja always stuck in my craw.
al simms Yeah, but it was Marco's idea to fire her. The band decided it together, why is everyone blaming only Tuomas?
@@mdnblues Why did they decide that?
@Melquei... Does he have any Chinese in his bloodline?
Тарья милаха такая. 😍 😙

No se que dijeron, pero ella me recordo a Julia Styles
Sí aquí se ve súper parecida 😃
There is another copy of this video in UA-cam....and with running subtitles in English and Portuguese.
it is fake world guys, in real one, they are still together, and crushing any other symphonic metal group with their thumbs and authority
They were never together, just childhood friends, and schoolmates.
Por favor alguien que traduzca está entrevista 🙏

Saattaa olla, mutta koska en ole varma en laittanut sitä tuohon otsikkoon.

Not impressed with their newer stuff.

The jumping at the end is not related to this interview but just the host acting about next subject to come.
Może ktoś da rade przetłumaczyć ten wywiad na polski??
soon upcoming: trends! [jumps around like a butterfly]
😱🤭 Oh my goodness
сладкая парочка
Tarjalla meni hyvin. Muu yhtye vajonnut alakeskinkertaisuuteen jo tuolloin.
Etkö aikoinaan päässyt edes roudariksi bändille, vai veikö Tuomas sun naisen, kun vieläkin noin katkerana iniset ja vikiset 😂
Someone translate this interview please :)

A lot of "TA"s... I don´t understand a word :p
In 1:31 word "Elvenpath" and 4:03 "heavy" ; )
Awn!
damn we are old now f*ck me...
