    I know most people compare them but I never will. Tarja’s the reason I fell in love with nightwish and symphonic metal, Floor’s the reason I still love them. They’re both phenomenal singers and I can’t choose!

      Same here - I loved their music in the Tarja era and while Anette is a great singer, she never really felt like a good fit for the band (especially live, trying to find a way to fit the older material, seeing them live right after Dark Passion Play came out was awkward when they played older songs). As someone who had also loved After Forever, when Floor was announced as the new vocalist for Nightwish, it was like someone was trying to appeal to one of my dream band mash-ups.

      And you don't have to choose. They are both indeed phenomenal singers and we all have preferences. The thing is, Tarja is what made Nightwish because of her voice , and Floor carries on that legacy because of her voice. And we can enjoy both. The ones that bitch about who is the better singer ruin these kind of fanbases, and I think it's pathetic all together. Why would you go out of your way to comment on a certain video to tell "oh but so and so is so much better" etc.. Too have that opinion is okay. Too state that and be a little bitch about it is another thing. So I completely agree with you !

    People get so b!tchy about comparing the two singers, unfortunately... But they seem to forget that this is your channel, and you're ALLOWED TO HAVE A FAVOURITE! I loved Tarja, she was awesome, and she definitely has a place in my playlist and heart, as she was my introduction to NW so many years ago... but the fact is I love Floor more. She's a lot more versatile, and you can see that the band is happier, too. People need to get over it. It's been 15 years since Tarja left Nightwish. By saying you like one singer more is NOT saying you don't like the other one too. So stop being so aggressive to these UA-camrs by posting mean comments and being petty by pressing the dislike button. Anyway, rant over.... thanks for the react guys :) I look forward to more NW songs from you!!!

      Possibly, when Marco said he was holding his voice, he was referring to singing with Anette. Marco did not hold his voice when he sang with Tarja. For example, watch The Phantom of the Opera. I've never seen Marco use the power of his voice as much as in that performance.

      @asdas saddasd Wow, I never read comments like that and I really disagree with them. Tarja's voice is quite audible on The Phantom of the Opera, even more so than Marco's at times. Tarja may not need to use a microphone to sing in a theater. Usually lyrical singers don't use it.

    • @Rafael-qi9bt
      @Rafael-qi9bt 4 роки тому +3

      @asdas saddasd The analysis really ends up being biased by personal taste, I agree with you. However, when I referred to a powerful voice, I meant about the volume of the sound. Marco and Tarja's styles are completely different, but the two have very good vocal power. Because of that, I believe that when Marco said he contained his own voice, I think he meant Anette. I like Anette's voice, but she doesn't have the same vocal power (volume) as Tarja and Floor.

    The Tarja performance you picked is from End of an era, very good show indeed, but also the last one with Tarja performing with Nightwish, she was fired right after this. So the differences between them had already grown to their climax at that point. Its clear to see that she is indeed a bit more distant from the guys there. That whole show is quite interesting to watch with the historie of Nightwish in mind. Whenever you get to Poet and the pendulum that whole situation will be interesting to research.

    I'm OG Nightwish fan, since Oceanborn, so Tarja was our original goddess :) It was so sad to see them let her go, but for understandable reasons. Nightwish magic looked ruined forever with Anette, cause she couldn't do any of that Tarja stuff from first 5 albums. Thankfully Tuomas realized this experiment isn't working (although she was good for those two studio albums but terrible for live). Bringing Floor to the band was brilliant move, she really resurrected Nightwish and gave them another dimension, and she can sing everything from any Nightwish era. I'd agree she is better and more diverse vocalist than Tarja, but I loved Tarja's operatic voice with Nightwish music so much, made them totally unique. But I cannot be happier we have Floor now, I cannot imagine anyone else doing what she does, I hope she never leaves

      I think it's the combination of her operatic tone and accent that makes it more difficult. Floor's annunciation is so clean. She has a neutral accent when singing making almost impossible to figure out whether she's European or American. It's that clarity that I think has given them more attention globally than Tarja was able. Their American fan base has exploded exponentially with her being able to sing without any obvious foreign accent. This was obvious even back in the 70's and 80's with the British Invasion. Iron Maiden is a good example, among others. Like it or not, that's how it's been and will probably continue.

    I only discovered Nightwish a few months ago and started by listening to Wacken 2013 and later concerts. While all three singers have versions of songs I like best since I started listening to Nightwish with Floor as a singer, for most songs I like her versions best.
    However, I am not sure these comparisons serve any purpose. Everyone should pick the version they like best and saying that one is better than the other is pointless. Taste is personal and we all have different preferences. There is also the factor that people develop and grow as well as the different times in which the songs were created/performed. The expectations and tastes of the public/fans were different. Most importantly I feel that comparing different performers is pointless in general and creates an "us versus them" vibe where people start defending their preference/taste because they may feel attacked because all people want to belong to the "winning/best team.

    On a scale of 10, Tarja's probably an 8. Floor however, is a 100. I only found NW a little over a year ago, but I am sure I would never have been a fan in the Tarja era. She's talented, no doubt, but her stage vibe is a tad creepy and as you said, I've never seen a video with her where she looks comfortable within the band. Maybe I'm prejudiced by the known history, but she looks like a loner up there. Floor however, looks like what you'd imagine if you played a track without vocals and said "who should be the lead vocalist?" Everything about her fits and I think makes NW complete.

      @@rburnsiv No, "those of us" do not necessarily share your opinion. I got hooked on Nightwish during the Tarja-era, stopped following them when she got dismissed and never really thought I'd be listening to post-Tarja NW. Floor proved me wrong. Judging from many of the posts here on YT, I sincerely doubt that my case is in any way unique - heck, this channel's owners listened to NW during the Tarja years and apparently have no difficulties "getting into" Floor.
      As for Floor's skills, are you actually suggesting that belting is all she can do? And Tarja is not a "pure operatic" singer, she's a lied singer - however, I get your point and it really just boils down to personal preference. As for myself, I consider Nightwish a very dynamic band that benefits from having a very dynamic singer.

Secondly, she gives credit to her band mates, as well as the crowd, so she comes across as a humble super star. Third, I'm just a sucker for the whole Valkyrie Goddess look. haha.

Floor just sounds better live everything feels more cohesive it just flows.. obviously the band as learned a lot over the years as far as live performances and they have better crews and editors so its not just because Floor is there but i do think she makes a big difference.

    I've only recently gone down the Nighwish rabbit hole, and it was this Wacken Ghost Love Score that took me there. I did go back and watch some stuff with Tarja and felt the same. She seems like something separate from the band as a whole. And separate from the crowd as well. It's hard to explain, but when you've played in bands and seen hundreds more it really stands out. Floor simply commands the stage and acts like some kind of super conductor between the band and audience, and even with no sound you can watch this happen.
    On top of that, I'm not even sure she was an official member at this show, as she was standing in for Annette who quit halfway in the tour. So Floor is, over the course of this performance, winning over the audience. Is really an amazing thing to watch, and not something that happens very often at all.

    FLOOR - Battleship, versatile & packed with firepower, providing the necessary frontal assault that the navy & band needs.
