I used to listen to this as a distraction in 2016 and now december 2021 I listened again. Some problems just are not up to you, family is one of them. It causes me a lot of stress. I cannot express with words what this music does to give me emotional containment to keep me motivated to better myself up :)
What I noticed as the albums evolved she toned down going full operatic, I have to admit as a die hard fan the earlier albums, up to Wishmaster she goes so hard and gives so much power it's almost a bit hard to make out the lyrics. It's not bashing her talent at all, merely pointing out she does such a good job it's almost a bit hard to understand each lyric
So young and so beautiful I can't believe I'm actually listening to Nightwish for 15 years now, I love this band with all my heart and soul I loved Tarja, I liked Annete and I adore Floor.
Holy smokes they were so young! Emppu looks like he's 15, and you can hear how Tarja's vocals evolved over the years with her continued studies and growing confidence. Good stuff!
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost the password. I would love any help you can offer me.
@Amir Drake i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Foreal, I didn't think bands could sound this awesome live mainly because I'd listened to the disaster that Evanescence sounds like live; but when I first watched From Wishes To Eternity, my jaw hit the floor repeatedly. Incredible.
+xenosingularis What... The Poet and the Pendulum is the most darkest, sad and fucked up song from Nightwish. And there are Our Decades in the Sun, Turn Loose the Mermaids, all very nostalgic/sad songs that came after Tarja left...
Wonderful look into the past. Before egos and pride got in the way of making great music. Look how young they were. This is when they made music for music's sake. Love them.
Never seen this one before. Truly amazing live performance in some tv studio. Usually such tv studio lives sound just horrible. Talented musicians, and there really is no replacing tarja. Her voice and character was made for this. Too bad they couldn't get a long in the end.
This program was called "Jyrki" and it hosted many new Finnish bands at the time. Kids/youth used to watch it on afternoons, it was always live and in a cramped small studio. I was 12 when this came out, dabbing into my first metal experiences. My friends hated it but I just stared and tried not to cry. ❤
This is a very good example of a band that was founded on MUSIC, not looks. I mean, you see so many bands that are already so shaped and softened up for the first album. This is something very different, straight from the forests of Finland.
This is one of the most fabulous moments when they played on the TV 1 channel and this video got distribution for the greater public. If not earlier... after this listeners started to discuss that what is this kind of a magnificent music ?! The whole genre started to get speed and wider awareness. Hardly ever before this kind of melodic heavy metal music and great (even educated) female soprano voices were combined to be such a perfection like this. The white owl started to fly high.
English translation of their previous interview in this show: Female announcer [FA]: "Tarja Turunen and Tuomas Holopainen from band Nightwish, welcome." Tuomas [Tu]: "Hello hello." Tarja [Ta]: "Thank you thank you." FA: "This second album of yours, Oceanborn, is heavier stuff than your first. Was this like your own decision, or was there perhaps pressuring from the record label to that end?" Tu: "No pressuring from any quarter. All the development that has happened has happened completely on its own. That is, before we started making the album, or even making the songs, there was no certainty about the outcome. Everything's come out on its own." FA: "This is the genuine Nightwish then." Male announcer [MA]: "Tarja, you've a magnificent voice, you're a third year student at the Sibelius Academy [Finnish conservatory]. What's the most difficult about combining a classical singing style or the studies you're receiving there, and the music of this genre?" Ta: "Listen, well... I've myself had to think about this very much, because the technique in this genre is very different at the end of the day than in classical singing. Even though my classical training shines through from the music, or from the singing what... Or the VOICE we can say. But, it's... It's not at all easy to sing Tuomas's and Erno's songs. Really. It's not easy AT ALL. You can compare it to opera arias, the condition [required of a singer] is totally... Like, you can totally compare these songs on a same scale." MA: "Yes, you've performed at Savonlinna Opera Festival as a choir member after all---" Ta: "Yes..." MA: "So you've experience from various stages. Tuomas, you're the song writer, but on the record there are also some songs that are not quite so heavy-like or typical representatives of the metal genre such as that... Swanheart. Well... I think you said before that you personally listen to a wide array of music and the songs don't start from any plain heavy metal setting." Tu: "Yeah, absolutely not. If I should mention some sources for inspiration where, like, I get ideas from, inspiration for the songs, it's precisely [inaudible] and movie soundtracks that I listen to very much." FA: "So Tarja, you're a rarity also in the sense that one almost never sees a female lead in a heavy metal band. Have you been taken as an oddity of some sort?" Ta: "Oddity [laughs]... Interesting... Well... I've been received very well. That's been very nice to notice. Though I was a little scared at first but it's been very fun with these guys to do this. And there are other female leads in heavy metal, in heavy music there have always been women but no classical singers. Those you see a little more unusually but..." MA: "Thank you.-- FA: "Thank you." MA: "We'll get to hear you some more live. You'll have a gig tomorrow at Tavastia, Helsinki and that record label of yours NICELY brings there some foreign journalists again. So do a great gig and maybe things get rolling also beyond our borders." Ta: "Eek!"
I just discovered Nightwish about two years ago from the people here on TH-cam who are gracious enough to take the time for post these videos. They get NO airplay in my area. I wish I had gotten to see them in the Tarja era. I saw them last week and they were amazing but they no longer do the powerful operatic songs such as this (which is one of my favorite songs).. That's not a knock on Anette, she was awesome and totally on pitch the whole show.
Esta version en vivo es sin dudas la mejor que han hecho.. si alguien recuerda otra mejor, que por favor me lo diga. Jukka está irreconocible sin el pañuelo en la cabeza. Y Tarja... Una de las mujeres mas hermosas, fantasticas y talentosas de este bendito planeta.
Gethesemane é nome do lugar onde cristo na passagem bíblica do seu inicio do seu martilho foi traído e entregue aos fariseus , Gethesemane também é conhecida como o jardim das Oliveiras . A letra , relata o momento em que Cristo tem um deslumbre de seu sofrimento e começar a clamar por sua vida à suar gotas de sangue , ao se deparar com o tamanho do seu sacrifício . O vocal da Tarja em seu lírico primitivo , leva à este momento sombrio bíblico ao expandir a energia sombria em seu vocal .
wow!!!!! this video is incredible. this is the best nightwish!!!! do you have more songs from this tv presentation? tarja looks so beatiful here! and her voice is amazing!!!!!! I miss tarja.
The Beginning of Legend of our times... I wish they never parted ways, that somewhere in universe, another reality exists, where classic Nightwish is still together, where Tarja chose Tuomas over Marcelo, and having cutties talented kids, worth of their legendary mother and father, and Nightwish is gathering 1 million people crowds on their concerts, having the deserved and unbreakable status of Gods of Symphonic metal, not juist Glorius past, but Glorious present and future... I have a dream... and this is it .I FKING HATE THE NECESSITY TO THINK, SAY AND WRITE WORDS NIghtwish and Tarja in separate meaning, IT IS NOT NATURAL, IT IS MENTAL PAIN WHICH HAS PHYSICAL EFFECT...if god existed he wouldn't let that tragedy happen...
wow have they changed since then!Tuomas is still a cutie though with or without short hair :-) so is emppu :-) Tarja has a voice that's amazing even after all these years,they are all incredible!
She looks like she's actually enjoying the music they're performing here, and it's kind of obvious now (looking back, it always is) that she wasn't really happy in Nightwish anymore near the end. She also sounds WAY better here than she did in some of the live performances during their last tour together. The guys in the band said one of the reasons she was fired was because she wouldn't show up to rehearsals, and her last live performances with them really did show it. Oh well, she's got a successful solo career and the band just got themselves the most versatile female vocalist (ever) in metal, so the departure ended up being for the best. I still love watching these old videos, though. They all look like babies XD
Emppu already than guitar hero! Everyone of them so blessed with great musical talent! But thankfully all of you let your hair grow for some great headbanging-sessions! :-)
I would say Tuomas.You can tell he looked really young here course so did Tarja.Her voice is still amazing even after all these years but she has changed hairstyle's quite a bit but i still like them and I still like their music :-)Their still a bunch of good looking people,especially Tuomas and emppu :-)
tarja has crosseyes at 1:57....lol but anyways this is a very solid performance, her voice is just as strong as the studio version, she is an awesome performer!
I used to listen to this as a distraction in 2016 and now december 2021 I listened again. Some problems just are not up to you, family is one of them. It causes me a lot of stress. I cannot express with words what this music does to give me emotional containment to keep me motivated to better myself up :)
Tarjas voice is SOOO BEAUTIFULLY HAUNTING AND SO ENCHANTING!!!! WOW!!!!😀😮👍👍👍👍👍
What I noticed as the albums evolved she toned down going full operatic, I have to admit as a die hard fan the earlier albums, up to Wishmaster she goes so hard and gives so much power it's almost a bit hard to make out the lyrics. It's not bashing her talent at all, merely pointing out she does such a good job it's almost a bit hard to understand each lyric
Hard to believe that this is that long ago...Such awesome vocals and the composition is almost perfect...
Technically and emotionally one of their best songs.
So young and so beautiful I can't believe I'm actually listening to Nightwish for 15 years now, I love this band with all my heart and soul I loved Tarja, I liked Annete and I adore Floor.
This is the first soung I hear from NW, it was so fuc**n good I got scare, I could not believe that such notes, such a voice existed on this planet !!
Indeed!!
Same here.... I like metal and also classical music so this was great experince to me..... And how good they are now (both NW and TT) :)
Holy smokes they were so young! Emppu looks like he's 15, and you can hear how Tarja's vocals evolved over the years with her continued studies and growing confidence. Good stuff!
Oh God, I laughed so hard on your Emppu comment xD
But it's true lol
Emppu still looks like he's 15
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..?

@Anthony Knox Instablaster ;)
@Amir Drake i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
one of my first Nightwish's favorite songs :)
o tempo não passa para Tarja,sempre linda..
Es impresionante la calidad musical de esta banda en directo ,se me ponen los pelos de punta
Foreal, I didn't think bands could sound this awesome live mainly because I'd listened to the disaster that Evanescence sounds like live; but when I first watched From Wishes To Eternity, my jaw hit the floor repeatedly. Incredible.
Ever since Tarja left, there are no more amazing/sad love songs in NW. I guess Tarja really was Tuomas' muse. :)
+xenosingularis What... The Poet and the Pendulum is the most darkest, sad and fucked up song from Nightwish. And there are Our Decades in the Sun, Turn Loose the Mermaids, all very nostalgic/sad songs that came after Tarja left...
+demonizer123 Sad, but not sad LOVE songs. None of those are like this one, Ever Dream or Ghost Love Score.
+demonizer123 Well, The Poet and the Pendulum is actually about Tuomas firing Tarja.
+YoLpIsBest Bye Bye Beautiful is about the departure of Tarja... not Poet.
+demonizer123 i know but The Poet and the Pendulum is clearly a more detailed snapshot of what Tuomas went through during that time.
Tuomas looks like he keeps repeating in his head, "Focus focus focus focus" haha.
I adore this song.
Amazing performance!!! Great memories from that era 😢
Wonderful look into the past. Before egos and pride got in the way of making great music. Look how young they were. This is when they made music for music's sake. Love them.
I listened to nightwish for years
impeccable voice, Tarja. she sounded much better then
Whoa. This takes me to the past, taking a plain view of how much this band grew up.
Tarja is so pretty
Ah, yes, the pre-long hair era.
Never seen this one before. Truly amazing live performance in some tv studio. Usually such tv studio lives sound just horrible. Talented musicians, and there really is no replacing tarja. Her voice and character was made for this. Too bad they couldn't get a long in the end.

@@turpasauna Yes I know Jyrki show and I used to watch some episodes from tv when I was a kid but did not see or know of nightwish's appearance on it.
@@onlyvoid Actually I was wrong, this piece was recorded in Yle studios. I remember them being in Jyrki once but cannot remember the episode etc.
Omg they are so young here.bunch of such a talented people.beautifull song just read the lurics
This is a very good example of a band that was founded on MUSIC, not looks. I mean, you see so many bands that are already so shaped and softened up for the first album. This is something very different, straight from the forests of Finland.
one of my favourite&most beautiful songs ever written. without doubt.
So much passion....I miss old Nightwish! :)
Tarja sempre linda e voz fantástica! A melhor do mundo do Rock!
so young and so unspoiled,
I feel so nostalgic now
thanks for posting makikoti47
still my favorite from the sami ever.
LEGENDA TARIJA💜💙💓

Tarja looks like she's really enjoying herself here!
1:56 the reaching of this note demands me to be cross-eyed
the reaching of that note also makes the listener cross-eyed from eargasm:D
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHA
I think it’s just a makeup that makes it look like that
tuomas piano playing is so great!
Great person and great musician.

thanks
Tarja - the better singer of Nightwish
Baby Tarja with short hair. Lovely!
Man seeing Jukka without his bandanna is just plain weird XD
Must have had it surgically removed
BUENISIMO!!!...
Oh, my... That was perfection.
JUST BEAUTIFUL~
Esse sim é o verdadeiro Nightwish!!!
I just discovered Nightwish about two years ago from the people here on TH-cam who are gracious enough to take the time for post these videos. They get NO airplay in my area. I wish I had gotten to see them in the Tarja era. I saw them last week and they were amazing but they no longer do the powerful operatic songs such as this (which is one of my favorite songs).. That's not a knock on Anette, she was awesome and totally on pitch the whole show.
I happened on this oldie by chance and saw this comment. How do you the find Floor era :D
amo a voz da Tarja
They all looks cute!
Aika hyvä teini-bändi. Hah, hah! Mahtava video, hieno juttu että tällanen aarre on tallessa!
03:46 no one can deliver this quality on metal scene then or now
Esta version en vivo es sin dudas la mejor que han hecho.. si alguien recuerda otra mejor, que por favor me lo diga. Jukka está irreconocible sin el pañuelo en la cabeza.
Y Tarja... Una de las mujeres mas hermosas, fantasticas y talentosas de este bendito planeta.
Eres la mejor tarja
belleza ♡♡♡ masterpiece!!!
Old Nightwish. Love it! Tarja rulesss
Vielen Dank
Tarja
I saw them in november 2000 for the first time, so many changes between the two dates!
This video makes me emotional
Tarja ☺ belíssima voz
one of the greatest heavy metal bands during all music history
This song is hard af to perform live!! Need soooo much air. Tarja kills it as always tho!
I just noticed they've brought the tempo down in the lives of past few years. Probably a good move, cause it's still a fast piece :D
my fav album from them
Grandissimi! Italy loves You!
Wow, amazing...from the beginning
08/08/2023 😊
la poesía sin ti esta muerta
She's so gorgeous!

FLOOR: Oh I will!
(The Official Passing Of The Torch)
Oh, my, it was so long ago... they're so young and cute...^_^ Love it)
em teus olhos vejo, sinceridade tarja Beautiful...........
Gethesemane é nome do lugar onde cristo na passagem bíblica do seu inicio do seu martilho foi traído e entregue aos fariseus , Gethesemane também é conhecida como o jardim das Oliveiras .

This song would never be sung by anyone but myself , or Tarja Turunen ... who else would do it ?
:D Tuomas looking so musicly nerdy :D .... How cute is that?
So different they were! They had Short hair!! I barely recognized Tuomas, how cute all of them back then :))
Tuomas borrowed his first keybeord from his dad. Used it until 2001 I think then bought his own.
Какая же она красивая
Doesn't get more vintage than this :)
Tarja HERMOSAAAA, veo estos videos y me da pena, cantaba mucho mejor aqui.. realmente la admiraba, fue de gran isnpiracion para mi..
Ella realmente sigue cantando maravillosamente hermoso

they are so young!
How the fuck young are they!! xDxD with short fucking hair, they r look so different xD
wow!!!!! this video is incredible. this is the best nightwish!!!! do you have more songs from this tv presentation? tarja looks so beatiful here! and her voice is amazing!!!!!! I miss tarja.
Tarja è bellissima in questo filmato...
I remember watching this in the TV when i was 13. I tought what the fuck is this, but I liked it at the same time.
@nightwish231 Best live band I've ever seen.
Epic face Tarja 1:57 XD !
Много ты понимаешь, мелкий анимешник.
wow that solo!
tarja aki todavia kantaba kon ambre osea ke lo hacia kon una gran potencia
haha now they look 100000000x better, but i still love the old songs
The Beginning of Legend of our times... I wish they never parted ways, that somewhere in universe, another reality exists, where classic Nightwish is still together, where Tarja chose Tuomas over Marcelo, and having cutties talented kids, worth of their legendary mother and father, and Nightwish is gathering 1 million people crowds on their concerts, having the deserved and unbreakable status of Gods of Symphonic metal, not juist Glorius past, but Glorious present and future...

cuando Nightwish era extraordinario

I still love watching these old videos, though. They all look like babies XD
Her last life Performance was great...Phantom of the Opera is just an example
In the end Tuomas fired her for his romantic feelings towards her. He really was in love and his song showed this
I love them XD
linda música.
Emppu already than guitar hero! Everyone of them so blessed with great musical talent! But thankfully all of you let your hair grow for some great headbanging-sessions! :-)
¿Alguien en tiempos de confinamiento 2020?
Tarja bellissima = kaunis
I would say Tuomas.You can tell he looked really young here course so did Tarja.Her voice is still amazing even after all these years but she has changed hairstyle's quite a bit but i still like them and I still like their music :-)Their still a bunch of good looking people,especially Tuomas and emppu :-)
sos hermosa Tarja por dios!!!!!
I love how awkward and uncomfortable Emppu looks :) its so adorable!
TARJA TURUNEN LA MEJOR #1
Emppu looks like a 16 year old LOL how cute they are and great musicians, best band ever with Pink Floyd
tarja has crosseyes at 1:57....lol but anyways this is a very solid performance, her voice is just as strong as the studio version, she is an awesome performer!
