Yes. Now that the band has Floor Jansen singing, they should be able to perform this song greatly again. Anette could not match Tarja. Floor will. One of my favorites.
Such an epic song... Nightwish always seem to amaze me with songs like this. Beauty of the Beast, Ghost Love Score... both absolutely out of this World.
Century Child is such an AWESOME album. Ever dream (profound lyrics), ocean soul, dead to the world, feel for you, beauty of the best....o.o I love them =')
This song is so wonderful, evolutive, the voice of Tarja, beyond of beautiful as it was said... One of my best NW song... I could kill to see them singing it in live now in Paris.... Elvenpath2008
This is one of my absolute favourite (old) nightwish songs! This song makes my soul fly... I would pay everything to see Tarja and nightwish togehter again and sing this song!
I love this part the most: "My home is far but the rest it lies so close, with my long lost love under the black rose, you told I had the eyes of a wolf search them and find the beauty of the beast." I hope I didn't made any mistakes. Awensome song!
exelente es poco para describir esta magnifica cancion tan completa tiene solos, doble pedal extremo, parte tranquila, y con la voz de tarja y marco se acompleta la armoniosa cancion
one of my fav nightwish songs, shame it will never be played live again. tarja's accent really did it for me, annette sounds too american and the new slower songs remind me of disney songs......
this is my anthem :) love the live performance, but PLEASE, annette can't sing this, don't let her destroy my anthem or i will die. My favorite of Nighwish, such a shame that now it became into Nightmare, so we have to keep this amazing performances in our memories and thats it. Tarja forever, love from Panama
omg! T_T one of my favorite NW songs... i want to hear it live again... wonder if tuomas thinks the same.... :'( PLEASE, PLAY IT LIVE AGAIN!! give annette a chance to sing it **
well, Hans Zimmer is one of Tuomas' biggest influences musically, no doubt about it, so that would not surprise me. But you are right it does sound exactly like the beginning of the Backdraft theme. Personally, I think of it as a secret tribute to Hans Zimmer, it's designed to let the fans guess it ;). Good catch!
OMG! i fell in love with this song, just as that, specially Long lost love part *_* Tarja used to have more energy an a prettier voice live back then as i can see... I don't like her live that much nowadays....
@SageOwl that's rude... give Anette more credit. she has improved A LOT. it would be interesting to hear this song live once more, and who knows? maybe she'll surprise us.
The way they have the cameras set up makes it seem like we're viewing them through "hidden" cameras. I also will never know why Nightwish never played with an orchestral accompaniment. Their music (this song and Ghost Love Score in particular) SCREAM orchestra in every way possible. Hopefully, they will NEVER do that with Annoot; her voice would be best suited with some silverware spinning around in a dozen blenders.
Well said, even though I don't think you can compare Tarja's style with Anette's. I listen to the Tarja albums more, but only because Anette has only done one album. By the way I'd like to point out that Tarja had very little respect for Nightwish fans, read the open letter.
To this very day the best Nightwish song I have ever heard.
Yes. Now that the band has Floor Jansen singing, they should be able to perform this song greatly again. Anette could not match Tarja. Floor will. One of my favorites.
Tarja sings so perfect in here...
I miss those days.
Perfect!
The best NW song for me.
Tarja looks particularly inspired and happy here :-)
Damn Tarja is so beautiful, there's no woman in the world who's more beautiful than Tarja
One of the best songs of True Nightwish for sure !!!! Amazing - beyond words
Such an epic song... Nightwish always seem to amaze me with songs like this. Beauty of the Beast, Ghost Love Score... both absolutely out of this World.

Century Child is such an AWESOME album. Ever dream (profound lyrics), ocean soul, dead to the world, feel for you, beauty of the best....o.o
I love them =')

I have to agree that this song is absolutely amazing.
This song is so wonderful, evolutive, the voice of Tarja, beyond of beautiful as it was said...

This is one of my absolute favourite (old) nightwish songs! This song makes my soul fly... I would pay everything to see Tarja and nightwish togehter again and sing this song!
TARJA MY ANGEL OF MUSIC!!!
Love her
This song is so epic!!!
I love this part the most: "My home is far but the rest it lies so close, with my long lost love under the black rose, you told I had the eyes of a wolf search them and find the beauty of the beast." I hope I didn't made any mistakes. Awensome song!
the best song of nightwish!!
I LOVE this song!
I Love this song!!!!!
Among Nightwish's epic 10+ minutes songs (Poet and the Pendulum, Ghost love Score, Fantasmic, and Beauty of the Beast) this is my favorite.
I LOVE this song, it's probably my favorite Nightwish one.
Love this song...
Amazing performance. Simply stunning! I don't think anything can surpass the old NW! =)
Her voice..... no words.
This song is f*king eargasmic, especially the "one more night to live" part.
Awesome song !! My favorite !!!
wahhhhhhhhh love it!!
oh my god tarja looks so cute in this video
NightWish is fantastic :D and my WISH is Tarja Back
This song is mindblowing.
This is just such a dramatic, epically poetic song. I'm glad they've allowed Tarja to sing this in her concerts.
I love it. This is one of my favorites ^^
Thank you very much for this video! :) This is the first time I find It complete (all the others are missing a part in the middle).
one of my absolutely favs
exelente es poco para describir esta magnifica cancion tan completa tiene solos, doble pedal extremo, parte tranquila, y con la voz de tarja y marco se acompleta la armoniosa cancion
Una canción maravillosa, inspiradora, tremendamente sublime en el dolor.
que duo con Marco . . . no habra otro igual . . .!!!
La voz de ella es de otro planeta . . !!!
great song, well performed
Fantasmic.
i love this song!!!
La voz de Tarja era un instrumento muy potente para Nightwish... Lástima que se fue...
one of my fav nightwish songs, shame it will never be played live again. tarja's accent really did it for me, annette sounds too american and the new slower songs remind me of disney songs......
@liodhan Slaying the dreamer!!!...A perfect poems's book, with amazing music and two tecnical voices!!:)
Espectacular.
One of the best
WOW O.O
OMG :O Am I dreaming ? Awesome !!!
Essa música é perfeita . Simplesmente maravilhosa.

Mas los escucho , mas me conmueve . . . que belleza . . !!! ¿Puede haber algo superior ?
Love you Tarjaaaaaa
this is my anthem :) love the live performance, but PLEASE, annette can't sing this, don't let her destroy my anthem or i will die. My favorite of Nighwish, such a shame that now it became into Nightmare, so we have to keep this amazing performances in our memories and thats it. Tarja forever, love from Panama
Tarja is always good live. no matter what, i have never ever herd her sing bad
omg! T_T one of my favorite NW songs... i want to hear it live again... wonder if tuomas thinks the same.... :'(
PLEASE, PLAY IT LIVE AGAIN!! give annette a chance to sing it **
it's top 5 cus it's awsome video and if u don't like it well it's ur problem .
Further proof that Tuomas is a brilliant songwriter and Marco is a GOD!!!
AMAZING!!!!!!!
Even when the audio is terrible, Tarja isn't ;)
@liveforlife2494
Me too!!! This is my favorite Nightwish song!!!
well, Hans Zimmer is one of Tuomas' biggest influences musically, no doubt about it, so that would not surprise me. But you are right it does sound exactly like the beginning of the Backdraft theme. Personally, I think of it as a secret tribute to Hans Zimmer, it's designed to let the fans guess it ;). Good catch!
Marco is awesome! nuff said.
hmm. wonder what it would sound like. Interesting idea this song with Anette's voice... :-) I'm looking foward to it ^^
i totally agree with you about Tuomas! :p
there will be a new band.this band will be great just like nightwish.
Well said.
marco's voice makes all the difference!
my fav line is:
beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers
Fucking Epicccc!!!
@Jillian i know it's from 2002 ^^ .
actually she does sing it again in a tour (or something) called 'masters of rock', and it wasn't too long ago ;)
AWENSOME!!!
FODA!
@poppaea6 Hahaha true, slaying the dreamer is so intense xD.
Can´t wait for their new album =p
5:56-6:05 AMAZING!!!!
OMG! i fell in love with this song, just as that, specially Long lost love part *_*
Tarja used to have more energy an a prettier voice live back then as i can see... I don't like her live that much nowadays....
My hat off, and bow. \m/
@Doum92 hey, you missed something ! to hear this song live with tarja. ; )
@SageOwl that's rude... give Anette more credit. she has improved A LOT. it would be interesting to hear this song live once more, and who knows? maybe she'll surprise us.
wow........
I agree. Tarja now sings much lighter, and at times it doesn't sound as pretty. Her true power came from singing from deep inside. ^_^
5:09 - 5:31 melody is from Backdraft :p i was watching it and recognized it, albeit a little different and faster
Christabel is Belle's name from Beauty and the Beast, Belle being her nickname.
The way they have the cameras set up makes it seem like we're viewing them through "hidden" cameras.
I also will never know why Nightwish never played with an orchestral accompaniment. Their music (this song and Ghost Love Score in particular) SCREAM orchestra in every way possible.
Hopefully, they will NEVER do that with Annoot; her voice would be best suited with some silverware spinning around in a dozen blenders.
Well said, even though I don't think you can compare Tarja's style with Anette's. I listen to the Tarja albums more, but only because Anette has only done one album.
By the way I'd like to point out that Tarja had very little respect for Nightwish fans, read the open letter.
it would be really nice to see :) though i always prefer old tarja voice from 1998-2000 its different somehow
Fuck. I will pay 10000$ to hear this song live!!!!
@RedAndWhiteAngels oh, my bad. thanks for correcting me ^^
@dawn2304 I don't like their new stuff. The old stuff (Angels fall first to century child) are the best in my opinion.
@MattMetalRock Frankly I don't wanna hear Anette murder beautiful old Nightwish songs like this.
Jukka is such a beast
i'm very interested to know how ALL OF THEM grew their hair SO long in 4 years!!!! i wish my hair would grow that quickly !!!
Nightwish Tarja is spirit
agree
Holopainen really knows how to make epic songs (Y)
