Annette by herself isn't a bad vocalist, it's just impossible to ignore how her voice doesn't fit most of their material. She did a killer job on Dark Passion Play and Imaginerium. Sadly, she didn't sound right on the rest.
I really enjoyed the Antette era of Nightwish. I felt like the band was exploring new ideas and going in different directions they had not gone before or since. Annette did the best she could with the older material but it's very clear that she is a different type of singer than Tarja was.
I think Annette did very well on the verses but the choruses...ouch, especially after the key change. They should have just let Marko sing it. The real star here is Troy, awesome job in the uilleann pipes.
Anette nunca funcionó. No puede funcionar una cantante cuya técnica es el sincopado. Puede cantar beat, punk, más Joan Jett. En Nightwish destrozó Imaginaerum.
Patricio Monzón Battilana You should avoid using terms like "long live" when talking about Dutch people. Unless you want to deal with a barrage of height jokes.
+Patricio Monzón Battilana they made a good choice obviously Dark passion play sold millions and won several awards for their songs. Amaranth even beat within temptations all I need for an echo and that was a WT best hit!!
+Shannon Kiser Of course there's people out there that liked the way Anette sang, and the music wasn't bad at all -The Poet and the Pendulum is one of the greatest song they ever made- but I still believed that album sold millions because the previous one, Once, what used to be considered the peak of their career.
I really enjoy this video thanks to Troy and Jukka combo int the begining then because of Jukka troughout the video. I wish him (them aswell) all the good in the world!
Annettes voice just doesnt work in this song.... Gary moore or tarja turunen are the only singers whos voice works in this song. Anette has a great voice but she just cant sing this....
+Bodyzerg LiveCast besuace it is her job and they told her too, duh! If you wanna keep your job, you do as you are told. and for you opinion, it doesn't matter about your opinion if you hate her so much why are you watching this. go troll someplace else cuz Anette was obviously good enough to be hired my the band!
What the hell is wrong. With her vocals she did a great version each singer they have had is different which is good if you dont like it dont watch it watch the vocalist you like. Me personally i like all 3 they were each different and had there own style great band is there any dvds with Annette as the singer available.
@@thijseijk25 Exactly. She's actually a pretty good singer. Just not when it comes to Something as dynamic as metal. Her voice timbre is soft. Far from the power it has to have for metal. But that does not at all mean she is a bad singer!
Whoa.....yeah, this is not a song within Anette's vocal range. Not sure, but I think this is one of the few songs Floor has not song live with Nightwish, would love to hear her tackle it.
It doesn't suck, but this song is clearly not meant for Anette. Big mistake of Nightwish singing this live with her. (I love her anyway, but as I said, this song is not meant for her)
The director of this should be ashamed of not cutting to Empuu at ALL during his solo. Who cares what anyone else is doing in that moment, it's his time to shine! Ugh. Also Annette sounds terrible in this. They're even playing it in a different key to accommodate her and it's just lacking.
I'm not sure if this is the audio feeding through the microphone to the recording or just this gig. But when they performed this live at Download the same year she was not so prominent. The guys can cover the chorus or perhaps the whole song and it sounded great. Anette didnt have the voice for this!
+Simon Worden Yeah, I was thinking that. The high notes are just too weak, once she drops down the scale her voice picks up. Looking forward to seeing them this year at Download :)
oh Annette, um, here's the thing. I'm actually one of the few people who actually like your singing in Nightwish. I think Dark Passion Play and Imaginaerum are great albums, and you have a good few performances for some albums, but you are not fit to sing this song. this song should only be performed by Tarja and Floor, and you should only stick to songs that you made or some of the other songs. just anything but this...
I think Annette's voice character is powerless for a metal band. the tone is too thin.. she is one of great singer but seems not suitable for this music genre in my opinion. feel not blended with the music.. 🤔
Annettes voice doesnt suit this at all. The upside is she brought in the celtic side for nightwish, but Floor is by far theor best! If they lose her theyre fucked
Pues me parece que en aquí Anette flojea bastante, curioso porque aunque siempre me pareció por debajo de Floor y Tarja, me gusta bastante, pero no en esta interpretación.
annette fangay detected. She is the second bad decision taken by nightwish. Firing Tarja being the fist one. Listening to her destroying one of my favourite song is heartbreaking.
Essa música definitivamente não é para a voz da Anette... A Tarja é a alma dessa música de fato. E em segundo lugar, Floor, que cantou até com a própria Tarja essa perfeição. Respeito totalmente a competência vocal da Anette, mas ainda acho a passagem dela pelo Nightwish foi meio apagada... A única música da Era Anette que eu curto muito na voz dela é a "Bye Bye Beautiful". Já que as músicas do Imaginaerum ficaram mais fortes na voz da Floor.
I almost feel bad for her... It is just not fair the hole she was given to fill is way too out of her league, thank god mama floor came to save the world.
cj zonneveld Joke's on you. Tuomas always see to it that they try new things in every album they make. In every detail like from gospel choir to children's choir the next album. NW is a tad lighter and happier/calmer in efmb. It's NW. Still sounds NW to me. It's good to hear new stuff every now and then.
Jean Souza lol wrong name I tagged. We share the same canopy. I loved Tarja's voice until Floor came. Every live performance of her gives me infinite goosebumps. She's magical. My queen. :> Annette sucked at singing Tarja's songs but I think Tarja will sound funny in Amaranth though. I have that logic, so I don't hate Annette as well, i just dont like her voice for NW.
+cj zonneveld yes I have heard Tarja, Floor, and the original singer. I wasn't trying to troll but just cuz you don't like it, it is what it is. Anette doing her job and singing like Marco said to do. Sje has talent and is doing her best singing a song that was meant for Tarja. I guess I just feel sorry for Anette getting hated on when she was hired to do a job and replace someone who was adored and treasured by many.
+Shannon Kiser i dont hate her at all. ive seen nightwish in amsterdam in 2012 with anette. and it was one of the most amazing shows ive ever seen. but in this song she sing in a different melody what destroys the song. i know she could do verry much better! thats why is said 'wtf is anette doing?'.
+cj zonneveld dude so lucky I would have loves to see a live show with Anette, I am sorry I was ranting and tired of ppl trashing anette homce all of my rage posts. Right it is hard to song some songs that are not meant for your type of voice. Floor is alright I gotta warm up to her I started losten to NW in the middle of the Anette era so that is who I associate w the band. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me lol
I disagree with all of you bitter, this song is more classic rock or blues than symphonic metal, and here it sounds better anette than tarja or floor, one is a failed opera singer, and floor an excellent metal singer, but for rock and blues anette he fucks them,
Annette by herself isn't a bad vocalist, it's just impossible to ignore how her voice doesn't fit most of their material. She did a killer job on Dark Passion Play and Imaginerium. Sadly, she didn't sound right on the rest.

I love how she sings "his pistol had been found"
THAT WAS EPIC!
In my opinion she hears good and awesome (sorry 😏😏❤️❤️)
Oh Nightwish :'D
they (madam tarja, madam anette, madam floor) are the best
What is that instrument at the start, sounds like a flute?????
Ulliean Pipes. Irish Version of the Bag Pipes.
NO NO NO NO NO! STOP
Omg!!!
Omg. Tuomas wanted to humiliate Tarja or something. Thanks God that Floor stepped in.
honestly, especially for this song is better when marco sing :)
WTF?
What did she do to the chorus wtf
Is she speaking or singing !? Awful.
Help ! I can not hear this longer as a minute .. very bad without Tarja
Wow the chorus is dreadful!!! Why didn't she sing it like Gary Moore? It would have been easier for her than this weird thing she did here...
Listen to versions by Floor 🤘🤘🤘
Anette is a failure in NW
wow! truly disappointed!
I prefer Tarja💯💯
I think Annette did very well on the verses but the choruses...ouch, especially after the key change. They should have just let Marko sing it. The real star here is Troy, awesome job in the uilleann pipes.
Anette nunca funcionó. No puede funcionar una cantante cuya técnica es el sincopado. Puede cantar beat, punk, más Joan Jett.
En Nightwish destrozó Imaginaerum.
beautiful! finally a version where you can hear soprano alto and baratone parts
I prefer Tarja's version :)
But I like this one too !
I think the change of vocalist was for better, so much rock and less operatic, and so much happy in the stage.
Worst mistake ever made by Nighwish! What da fuck were they doing when they chose her? Long live to Floor!
Patricio Monzón Battilana You should avoid using terms like "long live" when talking about Dutch people. Unless you want to deal with a barrage of height jokes.
Didnt know that. Anyway I meant long life
I know right, but it's maybe due to that "Annette Olson" wasn't the one who got to sing this song on the released album.
+Patricio Monzón Battilana they made a good choice obviously Dark passion play sold millions and won several awards for their songs. Amaranth even beat within temptations all I need for an echo and that was a WT best hit!!
+Shannon Kiser Of course there's people out there that liked the way Anette sang, and the music wasn't bad at all -The Poet and the Pendulum is one of the greatest song they ever made- but I still believed that album sold millions because the previous one, Once, what used to be considered the peak of their career.
I really enjoy this video thanks to Troy and Jukka combo int the begining then because of Jukka troughout the video. I wish him (them aswell) all the good in the world!
Different. Not bad, absolutely not bad but different!
Annettes voice just doesnt work in this song.... Gary moore or tarja turunen are the only singers whos voice works in this song. Anette has a great voice but she just cant sing this....
She's flat a lot... especially in the beginning.
She sung it with her own way and i love it. Great performance with Annette.
Now, there's another voice which matches perfectly: Floor's...
Anette nunca funcionó para Nightwish. En mi opinión estropeó gravemente una verdadera obra de arte como Imaginarium.
Why Annette... And really WHY Singing this song live? She obviously can't sing that D:
+Bodyzerg LiveCast besuace it is her job and they told her too, duh! If you wanna keep your job, you do as you are told. and for you opinion, it doesn't matter about your opinion if you hate her so much why are you watching this. go troll someplace else cuz Anette was obviously good enough to be hired my the band!
Finally someone with some sense.. :=)
Agreed. I am getting tired of these trolls too. Go watch Floor or Tarja and stop being a troll on someone else. Asshats.
What the hell is wrong. With her vocals she did a great version each singer they have had is different which is good if you dont like it dont watch it watch the vocalist you like. Me personally i like all 3 they were each different and had there own style great band is there any dvds with Annette as the singer available.
This concert in montreux is for me one of the reasons Annette had to leave Nichtwish,, It sounds awful.
the voice is sooo bad....
Simply no voice....
The voice of an eight year old ...
What is that flute instrument the guy is playing?
She CAN sing, but it isn't the same without Tarja.
u dont hear struggling ??? ....
Mandiz Lovaro she cant sing...
She doesn't have a "metal" voice. She should sing pop songs.
@@thijseijk25 Exactly. She's actually a pretty good singer. Just not when it comes to Something as dynamic as metal. Her voice timbre is soft. Far from the power it has to have for metal. But that does not at all mean she is a bad singer!

I don't want to say anything bad about Anette because she's so nice but that was embarrassing
It doesn't suck, but this song is clearly not meant for Anette.
Big mistake of Nightwish singing this live with her.
(I love her anyway, but as I said, this song is not meant for her)
Yeah i really disslike Annetts singing in this but why disslike the video? That intro and the preformance of the rest of the band is awesome!
Thank you God for Floor Jansen
I agree :)
Still prefer Tarja's voice
Whoever this is she's the worst vocalist Nightwish has had. Tarja was the best then Floor.
wehre wehre Floor Jansen when Nightwish fired Tarja?
The director of this should be ashamed of not cutting to Empuu at ALL during his solo. Who cares what anyone else is doing in that moment, it's his time to shine! Ugh. Also Annette sounds terrible in this. They're even playing it in a different key to accommodate her and it's just lacking.
What am I listening to? This is horrible
Omg thats terrible version, Tarja is only one who no this song and how to do it
I glad Nightwish got Floor, such awesome musiciabs deserved her, Annette is a good singer but this sounded awful
Am I hearing the troll song at 6:39 ? o.O
Totally off key on the vocal. I can't believe I'm giving a thumbs down on a Nightwish video! Damn...
This version of the chorus si gross!!!!! :S
Annette is a great vocalist
Todo hermoso menos el coro es una porquería xD
marco tried to keep the original tone. too tired- -
Esa es una gaita asturiana? Lo digo por el tamaño, la cantidad de tubos y el color Oo
Si

+DieyoungDiefast lucky you! I got to see them in Singapore recently which was awesome but download is just too far from me nowadays
Who was playing the guitar solo? Why not show emppu at all during his solo?
Как? как можно так дерьмово спеть? Марко исправляет за ней всё.
oh Annette, um, here's the thing. I'm actually one of the few people who actually like your singing in Nightwish.

That's not Nightwish....
I don't like it just a little bit at the way that "Annette Olzon" sings this song.
Annettes voice doesnt suit this at all. The upside is she brought in the celtic side for nightwish, but Floor is by far theor best! If they lose her theyre fucked
Over The Hills and Far Away só combina com a Tarja!
I love Annette!
Annette made Nightwish a pop band...thank God is now Floor and made them metal again
Pues me parece que en aquí Anette flojea bastante, curioso porque aunque siempre me pareció por debajo de Floor y Tarja, me gusta bastante, pero no en esta interpretación.
This is bullshit. The time you realize the guitarist sings better.
== really ? is still the same singer?? or this is the new one ??? very disappoint tho ~~
;)
I love the description of the video(it sucks)
Agree
I wonder how this song would sound with taito drums
Merci "ex5o1" 🎼💜🌺🙋🎼
tarja where are you?
butchered
tarja back.....
Geiler auftritt besser al in peru
I like Anette, like I love Nettie, but sorry, you can't sing this song :(
annette fangay detected. She is the second bad decision taken by nightwish. Firing Tarja being the fist one. Listening to her destroying one of my favourite song is heartbreaking.
Без Тарьи полная лажа.
no me gusta como canta el coro, el resto fue hermoso :3
Essa música definitivamente não é para a voz da Anette...
A Tarja é a alma dessa música de fato.
E em segundo lugar, Floor, que cantou até com a própria Tarja essa perfeição.
Respeito totalmente a competência vocal da Anette, mas ainda acho a passagem dela pelo Nightwish foi meio apagada... A única música da Era Anette que eu curto muito na voz dela é a "Bye Bye Beautiful".
Já que as músicas do Imaginaerum ficaram mais fortes na voz da Floor.
GRAUSAM!!!!
+Thomas Heusel Auf jeden Fall... dies ist mein Lieblingssong von Nightwish aber Anette hat alles Kaputt gemacht :-(
I almost feel bad for her... It is just not fair the hole she was given to fill is way too out of her league, thank god mama floor came to save the world.
+Jean Souza well she was good enough to get the gig so STFU I am sick of hearing how Floor is so great. she has her own style as well as Anette!!
+Shannon Kiser nightwish isn't nightwish anymore. efmb was not a bad album.. but it did not sound like nightwish anymore.
Next time you talk to Tuomas, please remind him not to hire amateurs as lead singers again...
cj zonneveld Joke's on you. Tuomas always see to it that they try new things in every album they make. In every detail like from gospel choir to children's choir the next album. NW is a tad lighter and happier/calmer in efmb. It's NW. Still sounds NW to me. It's good to hear new stuff every now and then.

wtf is anette doing? :o
+cj zonneveld ummmm singing
+Shannon Kiser listen to 'over the hills and far away'. i would not call that singing
+cj zonneveld yes I have heard Tarja, Floor, and the original singer. I wasn't trying to troll but just cuz you don't like it, it is what it is. Anette doing her job and singing like Marco said to do. Sje has talent and is doing her best singing a song that was meant for Tarja.

Whoa... does not work!!!!
I will vomit... I hate bands which are terrible in live...specifically singers...
Tarja was 1000 times better. Sorry
:( this is the first time i miss tarja verry much :'(
Отвратительный писклявый голос
Tarja was better
Yikes!!!
Взяли какого-то рыжего толстого хоббита с некрасивой улыбкой и просто лажают..
Un asco esta versión.
Floor Jansen now commands this song and this band with her vocals. But never close to Tara.
How to kill a good song by Crappette Olson
Тарья ушла и стало ооооочень скучно..
Annette has an angelic voice
