Thank you guys so much! This was a looooot of fun :D If you want to see how this video was made and more, go to my second channel to see the BEHIND THE SCENES of this video production ;D /,,/ ((Behind The Scenes)) - I Want My Tears Back th-cam.com/video/nd8vqu_RqZ4/w-d-xo.html
Minniva, everything is good and everything is clear, but question: where did you and how did you FIND/DIG Rybak?))) Because even in our country (Russia) he is already fogotten, and I have not heard about him for long time))) may be you should keep this tradition to work and perform with our Russian musicians, because we have a lot talents)) for example rock vocalist Petr Elfimov (Петр Елфимов)
Miss Minniva, my question is "Where did you find that waterfall? It's _gorgeous!_ Maybe not as gorgeous as you, but still...waterfalls are so majestic!" 😊
How the HELL you managed to get Alexander to cover with you is INCREDIBLE! It turned out WAY better than I could have imagined!!! Your voice coupled with that epic violin playing of a real Eurovision winner is a combo that CAN"T be beat!
Minniva's voice + Alexander''s violin + Nightwish's song= SOMETHING AMAZING! I was dreaming about that collaboration! Love all of your work but recently you have very good time. With every friday I am your bigger fan Greetings from Poland!
SurvivørNø029. I would say that Minniva's voice + Alexander''s violin + Nightwish's song= a sweet visit to the MEADOWS OF HEAVEN where EVA enjoy such beautiful music with us!
How come algorithm failed to suggest this to me? Alexander Rybak and Minniva covering Nightwish should be pretty easy suggestion considering my view history.
Good Got-Dayum, Beautiful! Talk about taking something perfect and making it Divine! I never imagined what you showed in the video for visuals, but, now I can't get it out of my head. My wife and I just celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary 4 days ago (August 14). I took my wife to Nightwish's Imaginarium concert while she was pregnant with out son, just over 2 years into our marriage to the Grove in Anaheim, standing only, no seats. She was 4 months pregnant. I got front row, center stage tickets and, though she needed to sit down on the floor against the half height wall that marked the back of front row after a few songs, she made it clear she was still having the time of her life. Well after 1AM the next morning as we were driving home from the concert, she told me that our son had been rocking out all night as we were driving the 2.5 hours home all while well as she rubbed her pregnant belly. What I never expected--and my awesome wife never did either--was that our son was listening the entire time. It was not until he was born and we found he had bad colic and police siren level loud lungs that this particular concert/album was the only thing that could soothe him. Needed the hot water bottle on his tummy as well, but, was never enough. It was the hot water bottle on his tummy and THIS concert playing on the tiny boombox on his dresser next to his crib that we could soothe him enough to be able to go to sleep. Sometimes, he would make it all the way to the end of Ghost River, but, most times, he would be out cold before Storytime got even half way through. Even took my wife to Sonata Arctica during her pregnancy a few months after Nightwish, which was at the same venue, but our son was indifferent the whole concert. Even now, while my wife LOVES Sonata Arctica as much as I do, our now 11 year old son could care less. Not so when Nightwish comes on--even now. So awesomely WTF of a thing that makes for connections none of us ever expected as a family. Minniva, Mr. Rybak. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this divine gift.
It's fantastic to see all the love and effort you put in your videos. Amazing singing, violine playing and you found awsome locations for the video. All love to you Minniva
This was so much fun to watch!!! Especially from 3:20 to 4:20. EPIC! Everything was amazing. The video, the vocals, the instrumental, the violin... Quentin did a great job with the music and Alexander was outstanding \o/ I have no words, this was EPIC.
Thank you for putting these videos together! You and your friends are a lot of fun to watch. I'm sure it's a lot of work, but you all seem to be having such a good time! Very infectious. My wife will tell me "You've been watching Minneva videos again, haven't you?"
Alexander prowess with the violin and an insanely voice - interpretation on every voice Minniva does. Now I'm a fan of both of you guys, really nice colab!! Please do more songs together.
Did I ever tell you how great this version is, and how much great energy and lust for life you and Alexander are able to generate. This song makes you want to dance and hug people....really great work. Listening to it , is like watching sunshine dancing on a field of flowers..... Ok enough with the soft touch this is a metal channel :)
She's kind of cheating though to achieve similar power as Marco, she has three different versions of her doing marco's part at the same time. Still, it's great haha
Minniva! I loved every second of this video! Your interpretation, your backing vocals, the scenery and ofc Mr Rybak! You should do more collabs together! Great work! Sending positive vibes from Greece, hope you're gonna do more of these gems!
Love Minniva, actually listen to her more than Nightwish itself BUT Nightwish is doing amazing with their current ensemble. Minniva is a cover goddess and that range is what makes her special \m/
Hi minniva, I always feel happy when I listen you singing . It brings me up when I am feeling down. Excellent job girl! Also Alexander has done an excellent job playing the violin. Wow girl you are the best! Love you! Thanks!
Miss Your videos style from 2016... Was so great to see You more than only next to the microphone. Thank You for Your hard work, You was and will be EPIC...
wooow!!! i am speechless and stunned!!! you're a great singer and i just love nightwish!! nice suprise to see that alexander rybak likes this too!! greetings from belgium and keep up girl, you're amazing x
This video starts with the opening instrumental, Minniva belts the lyrics "I WANT MY TEARS BACK" just before Alexander Rybak goes hard with the violin - great start, very hype. The version of this track that is sold on iTunes has parts of it missing, like Minniva's first line that should give the song the impact it has in this video.
Wow! Really great performance/great singing! I loved it! :) The footage with the waterfall is so amazing! The rippling water with your movements in front looks awesome and fits perfect to the music!^^ Wish I could travel some day to Norway and become witness of this awesome nature! And of course meet you there!;) You are so lucky to have it directly in front of your cabine door! It is very entertaining to watch Alexander perform... seems to be a funny guy :D After your video I directly had to watch some of his videos :D
Watching the fun you guys are having - and knowing that it is joined by serious hard work and time, makes me appreciate every track you do so much more.... Especially as you dont have a full crew just working for you - its all you, and what you can achieve. Awesome
Usually NW covers sound a bit hollow and just wrong somehow .... This, however, made me jam as much as the original, if not even more :) an utterly amazing piece of work. And I am from Finland, after all, and my fiancee knows current Nightwish members personally as they suddenly were on holiday in Hungary im the same location :p Simply amazing.
The violinist is very good, and this cover is great. It's so cool that you sing both the male and female parts, and that you're finally losing your seriousness. Don't get me wrong, I also like the covers where you are serious and shy....but seeing you jumping, playing, and getting crazy is so fun, and adds so much beauty to the cover, and those Nordic woods behind you add even more beauty. Like somebody else said, your cover makes me happy!!! You should form a band, and include the violinist here and the guitarist that helped you in The Siren.
I've been looking forward to this ever since you posted that snippet :) I really looove your work plus Alexander Rybak has been a favourite of mine ever since he won Eurovision in 2009 :3
I am busy listening multiple times all your songs, it takes a loooot of time. Keep doing your awesome job :D Do you mind doing some Avantasia or Edguy covers? Would be awesome!
I do listen now for a short time some Music from Nightwish (the first song was Sleeping Sun - my favorit) and hear Minniva singing and like it by the minute.. this is amazing good. A beautiful lady and she sings full of passion! Great, thanks!

Bigger than the sum of its parts.
Удивлена что Рыбак каверит Nightwish, но ещё больше удивлена что внешне он такой же как 12 лет назад, очень юный
это потому что не женат))

I can't stop watching this! Alexander looks like he's having the best time, as do you Minniva! This is epic!
Kim Hedges I know right?! I kinda developed a man crush for him! Amazing guy!
LuiKang043 haha 😂 not going to lie, he is pleasing to the eye 😜
It's fantastic to see all the love and effort you put in your videos. Amazing singing, violine playing and you found awsome locations for the video. All love to you Minniva
Awesome! I am glad you like it Johan ^_^
Holy friggin, hell, Minniva. This made me SOO happy.
Thank you for all your work on this one.
I miss you Minniva. I am waiting for your comeback. 2023 and I'm revisiting your channel. Your Nightwish covers are my favorites.
Не важно сколько лет.
Исполнение чудесное, и Саша шикарен.
Воистину!
и правда,великолепно
Rybak covering Nightwish, Am i dreaming? O:
He sad yes right away /,,/ ;)
Minniva Official You're good couple, a good singer and a good violinist/singer. Thanks for this cover.
Regards
WHAT A GREAT TIME TO BE ALIVE
I think Rybak is fan to Iron Maiden so ofc he play metal sometimes ;)
Rybak- charming
nice surprise, Alexander is a great artist, you should sing more songs with him, seems you two and Quentin fit perfectly :)
Andrei Marasoiu Agreed 1000000%
Dude did win Eurovision after all.
This was so much fun to watch!!! Especially from 3:20 to 4:20. EPIC! Everything was amazing. The video, the vocals, the instrumental, the violin... Quentin did a great job with the music and Alexander was outstanding \o/ I have no words, this was EPIC.
What a GREAT performance from both off you.This version kicks mega ass and will go down as one of the best cover you have ever recorded.
Wow. This just leaves me speechless. I love Nightwish and as a violin player, I adore Alexander Rybak and his style. And your vocals are on the point.
Absolutely amazing 😱
Wait Alexander Rybak covered Nightwish? OMG is this for real?
A real musician can do everything ;) And some just might need a little push into it /,,/
@@MinnivaOfficial so true btw your sabaton covers are the best
I think this is my favorite cover you've ever done!!!! Amazing as always Minniva and Alexander!!
:D
Oh my gosh, this is so wonderfull. That joy radiating from both of you. This song is already one of my favorite.
We don't want our tears back. Not the ones we have it of you because of joy. Long live Minniva!
Now that is something I did not expect to see today: A former Eurovision winner collabing on an amazing Nightwish cover.
Thank you for putting these videos together! You and your friends are a lot of fun to watch. I'm sure it's a lot of work, but you all seem to be having such a good time! Very infectious. My wife will tell me "You've been watching Minneva videos again, haven't you?"
Never heard of this song before but the chorus is forever stuck in my head! Amazing Cover Minniva!
Alexander prowess with the violin and an insanely voice - interpretation on every voice Minniva does. Now I'm a fan of both of you guys, really nice colab!! Please do more songs together.
Alexander Rybak & Minniva What an amazing combination .. amazing ! Thanks .. thanks thanks ! AND playing Nightwish song..
Самая неожиданная коллаборация.Потрясающе.Отличный кавер.Обожаю Найтвиш.
Did I ever tell you how great this version is, and how much great energy and lust for life you and Alexander are able to generate.
This song makes you want to dance and hug people....really great work.
Listening to it , is like watching sunshine dancing on a field of flowers.....
Ok enough with the soft touch this is a metal channel :)
ALEXANDER AAAHHHHH IM SCREAMING!!!!
Здорово!
Minniva и Александр вместе. Интересный mix.
Спасибо | Thanks
;-)
The violin was STUNNING! I also really loved when you sung lower.
When you sing Marco part 😍 what I lobe about you is that you can easily sing male parts so beautifully! Amazing!
You'r so sweet! Thank you big time Rehn :))
She's kind of cheating though to achieve similar power as Marco, she has three different versions of her doing marco's part at the same time. Still, it's great haha
Rehn, you're an angel too. :)
Not saying that Minni did Marco's part bad, but I would love to listen Alexander doing it. His voice is amazing.
3:16 ---> got chills. Great cover!
Amazing as always, northern girl ;)
:D
Minniva! I loved every second of this video! Your interpretation, your backing vocals, the scenery and ofc Mr Rybak! You should do more collabs together! Great work! Sending positive vibes from Greece, hope you're gonna do more of these gems!
You are meant to be the next Nightwish female singer.
/,,/
I second that!
Love Minniva, actually listen to her more than Nightwish itself BUT Nightwish is doing amazing with their current ensemble. Minniva is a cover goddess and that range is what makes her special \m/

Absolutely brilliant Minniva. You clearly had fun doing this cover of one of my favourite Nightwish songs.
Need to go to sleep, but just can't stop listening this. Absolutely fabulous!
Супер! Александр Рыбак- гордость Беларуси!
Wow! Really great performance/great singing! I loved it! :)
The footage with the waterfall is so amazing! The rippling water with your movements in front looks awesome and fits perfect to the music!^^ Wish I could travel some day to Norway and become witness of this awesome nature! And of course meet you there!;) You are so lucky to have it directly in front of your cabine door!
It is very entertaining to watch Alexander perform... seems to be a funny guy :D After your video I directly had to watch some of his videos :D

I use this video as vocal warmups this is a testament to how good this cover is
The violinist is very good, and this cover is great. It's so cool that you sing both the male and female parts, and that you're finally losing your seriousness. Don't get me wrong, I also like the covers where you are serious and shy....but seeing you jumping, playing, and getting crazy is so fun, and adds so much beauty to the cover, and those Nordic woods behind you add even more beauty. Like somebody else said, your cover makes me happy!!! You should form a band, and include the violinist here and the guitarist that helped you in The Siren.
