    Tarja is the reason most of us got into Nightwish. Anette is why others jumped on the train. Floor is why all of us remained.
    And Marco is still the best singer in Nightwish.

    Hey! I was just passing by here and came across this video (Nightwish & Tarja radar on youtube >_< haha). I liked your reaction and now I just subscribed to your channel!
    I've been a huge fan of this amazing band and especially of Tarja for many many years now, I just love her voice, her persona, well... basically everything about her, haha! Tarja's expressive, dark powerful voice, her persona as well and her renditions have always given me goosebumps all over my body, bringing tears to my eyes every time I hear her voice and touching the depths of my soul!! 😍 Nightwish's music and Tarja are such two great inspirations to me, no matter who is the singer (btw, I love the band with all three singers they had and think they're amazing in their own ways [first Tarja, then Anette and now Floor], all of them contributed in different and very important ways that helped them grow as a band and develope their own original style within the aesthetics of symphonic metal)! But I followed more closely Tarja's solo career after she was fired from Nightwish back in 2005 (this concert, End of an Era, was actually their last concert together... and btw Tarja was very sick, she didn't even know if she could perform that night... well, it was literally the end of an era, so it's kind of sad really, but in the end I think it was the best, both for the band and especially for Tarja, for she built her own solo career with much more freedom than she had, she's much happier, can compose and write her own songs, sing however she wants to, play piano and just fully express herself, being the incredibly talented artist she is!) 😍 So I think you'd also love to hear some solo works of Tarja's, some that can show even more of her power, the emotions she's capable of delivering, the technical control of her voice and the amazing creative artist she is.
    So I wonder if you'd be willing to react, apart from nightwish's songs with her, to some of her solo works too, this would be awesome! I'm sure you'd be amazed! Her solo musical style is not easily defined; of course it still has many of the symphonic metal elements as main references and also her operatic singing (the classical singing techniques and all), but it's quite different from what she used to do with Nightwish, AND it's equally amzing!! 😍 (and not to be compared in my opinion haha) Well, I'm new to your channel, so I'm sorry if you already reacted to some of the songs I'm about to suggest hahaha, but please react to:
    - ua-cam.com/video/jxqodwLVdcU/v-deo.html . This song is called "Love to Hate", recorded in 2018, in London, for her live-album Act II. It's grand, another outstanding performance, one of my favorites!
    - ua-cam.com/video/6T-Wyw9lYyM/v-deo.html . This one is "In for a kill". It was in 2012, recorded in Rosario for her first live album Act I. Bombastic! Hear the lion within her roar! Hahaha
    - ua-cam.com/video/K3QmQN7VSNI/v-deo.html . Also from Act I, this is a kind of mixed version of two of her ballad songs ("Oasis" and "The archive of lost dreams"). Here she sings while playing a grand piano, showing some dramatic nuances of her expression and voice, with kind of "gothic vibes" haha, she delivers such a touching, emotional and simply beautiful performance! It makes me shiver and cry every time!
    Some performances of her classical concerts would be awesome too (if you have time for it, of course haha). But I promise it's worth it, Tarja is really amazing!
    - ua-cam.com/video/T2VIhB7q9uQ/v-deo.html . This is a czech opera aria called (in english) "Song to the Moon", from Dvorák's opera "Rusalka". Tarja sings it beautifully, so expressive and stunning!
    - ua-cam.com/video/761qOzEdl8E/v-deo.html . This german aria is "Mein Herr Marquis", from Johann Strauss' opera "Die Fledermaus". Here she shows some super high notes of her vocal range and quite an agility that is really impressive, for her voice has a little more drammatic, heavier and darker timbre, and this in lyrical music world generally means, in short, that the singer (man or woman) won't have so much agility because of some physiological details about vocal chords.
    - ua-cam.com/video/kEFFp3G3cMc/v-deo.html . This one is the "Ave Maria" composed by Tarja herself. It's simply divine, very touching!

    For a beautiful song from the very start of Nightwish, from their 2nd demo album actually, Angel's fall first. I would recommend studio versions for most of Tarja era songs, since their live shows didn't have that amazing mixing and audio quality as the more modern Floor videos, and Tarja was really saving up her voice in live performances and using less amazing but safer singing techniques when performing live.
    In those days before youtube was as big of a thing as it is now, making the crowd enjoy the show was more important than getting a perfect audio performance
    However, this Phantom of the Opera was one of the big exceptions, where this live performance is actually 1000x better than their studio version, and has different composition as well

    Interestingly, whilst I realize Nightwish is a very talented band, their music doesn't move me as it does you. What I DO enjoy though is watching YOU enjoying it so much! You're so fortunate to be able to spin gold out of straw that way! :o)
    You seem like you'd be a lot of fun to spend time with. You'd be a good VJ for MTV or such!

    Wasnt quite her last song with them, but this was the last gig. Last song was Wish I had an Angel, as it always was the finisher back then :) The extra emotion from the other band members, like Jukka's head in his hands, is they all knew it was her last performance, but she didnt.

      @@WildwoodVagabond Tarja's pseudoname in Nightwish lyrics is angel and beauty, and Tuomas' pseudonymes are beast, devil, poet and dead boy. There is this duality he cultivates with this male-female roles of seducer and seduced, good and evil, and Phantom of the Opera is one of the songs in the theme. Check where you can spot angel in Nightwish images (for example: Once-album cover, End of an Era -album cover, Amaranth song, Sleeping Sun remake music video..). Now you get what is behind the song "I Wish I had an Angel" and why it was Tarja's last. There's plenty of hidden in Nightwish lyrics that people don't get at all, if they don't know what to look for. Tuomas knew he would fire Tarja after "Once" album, and the album cover and the songs tell that. For example, possibly Tarja's most popular song "Nemo" is about the break up and how Tuomas feels about it... but people think it is just about being lost.

    • @athlonen

      @@Aurinkohirvi Exactly. But one of the other reasons why they chose this song to cover, was that the album at that time, "Century Child", had songs on it, that when you add the duality context you mention, does tend to have a slight hint of a G-rated type BDSM. When you think about it, Phantom of the Opera is basically about how Eric (the Phantom) is doing all he can to make Christine sing more and higher and higher. He does more, and she goes higher. He tells her to sing, and she does. The Phantom is the seducer, the singer is the seduced. The Phantom is evil (he actually kills someone in the musical), the singer is good. with that duality, the song really does fit Nightwish, which is why it made a good song for them to cover.

    People often overlook Tarja, "Floor is the best," as such nonsense. I love Floor, but realise Tarja made the band infamous mezzosoprano in the beginning. Without her, Nightwish would not be as big, nor Floor wouldn't be in the band, now. As a military person stationed in Europe in the late 1990's, she was the reason, the first impression if you will, of the band. She is also the reason I stopped following the band, because of her firing. Annette never gave me the "Nightwish Sound" I craved until Floor joined. Tarja was probably the inspiration for many of Heavy Metal singers of the 2000's, including Floor. From what I understand, they are friends. Anyways, this track and "I wish I had an Angel" from the same concert are my favourites by her. Floor nails "Ghost Love Score" though.

    Hello again Rachael, always happy to see you and your new reaction video.
    Amorphis "Death of a King" (Official Video) would be a nice one. The vocalist Tomi Joutsen growls but has also a great velvety clean voice. I saw Amorphis 3 nights, different setlist each night, in a row a couple of weeks ago and I was impressed.
    Another one I like is Steve'n'Seagulls, lol the name of their 1st album was "Brothers in Farms", saw them too June 27th at Allas Sea Pool, you may not know about the sea pool, it's quite new, near Kauppatori ja Presidentinlinna. Gonna see them again in two weeks in Kulttuuritalo. They play mostly covers of heavy classics, but with a totally different style, genre, don't want to reveal more. Their biggest hit is the AC/DC cover "Thunderstruck". It has 111M views on YT, and thousands of comments, 99% praising, asking when are you coming to my home country.
    I really hope I get the chance to talk to them again. I had a long talk with them at Allas, they are the nices of people, and funny, but skillful musicians above all.
    You reaction videos are so popular, that when I'm a little late, there is a hundred comments already. That's great!
    It was a pleasure to see your reaction to The Phantom by Nightwish in Helsinki 2005. This song is perfect for Tarja's operatic style vocals, but Marko - his vocals were something else. After a throat surgery, that went wrong. That was before he joined Nightwish in 2001.
    Jukka was propably suffering from migraine. When they were playing their tribute to Pink Floyd "High Hopes", (fantastic vocals by Marko, and performance be all of the guys.) Jukka seed to be suffering, Tuomas tiltid his head slightly, signalling to Emppu he should go and check up on Jukka.
    I really love Marko's vocals in general, but "The Islander" Tampere 2015 shows how good his clean vocals are. His own composition, lyrics by Tuomas.
    You commented Tuomas' looks. I told you about me taking pictures for my ID card, and I realized then my facial hair is pretty much like that of Tuomas. I strongly deny I'm trying to look like him, though I am a fan of his. lol
    ❤ from Kallio
    Stay safe! (Everybody)
