Posts from Nightwish

This is their very first song, after which the band is named... Nightwish (translated by Maria Immortamo) Oh, setting Sun, Your red rays make me cry They remind me of a man, Whose love awaits me in the sky. We both await the marriage bed After I cross the threshold of death. I must die before my sorrows, I sent a Nightwish through the starry sky. I was awakened by the voice of the night winds, Which soothe me when I am sad. Tormented by my dreams and desires, I yearn for your caresses... We both await the marriage bed After I cross the threshold of death. I must die before my sorrows, I sent a Nightwish through the starry sky. "Resting in silence... A flute from an unseen kingdom Empties its heart, Giving me love With its enchanting melody Light of Orion Shadow of Andromeda Call of the dancing Universe I must love them, Before they accuse me of something, This is peace..." _____________________________________ And this, in my opinion, is Nightwish's "anthem" - their song "Nightquest" (The last verse...) Nightquest - quest not for the past But for tomorrow to make it last Simply the best - way to walk this life Hand in hand with the dreamers' minds Enter the realm, don't stay awake The dreams remain, they only brake Forget the task, enjoy the ride And follow us into the night First ones to guard this path of night Lady in black, Lady in white Followed by legions of night-time wanderers Guardians of the halls of heart When we from our homeland depart To challenge the gods of emptiness May the quest begin... And the translation is as follows: Nightquest - a quest not for the past But to make "tomorrow" last Simply the best way to live Hand in hand... Enter the kingdom, don't wake up Dreams remain, only stopping Forget about obligations, enjoy the journey And follow us into the night The first to guard this path - Lady in black and Lady in white Who were those who wandered in the night Those who guard the hearts, When we lose our way home, Demand the gods of emptiness - That's when the adventure begins...

Nightwish is a great band. I have all their albums, and I think I even have their music videos somewhere. My favorite song is Nemo.

Passion and the Opera (original by Nightwish)

Princess of lust
Dignity put to dust
A virginal sight
Their apple to bite
Drink from my thighs
The rain of lies
A sight so cursed
Breasts which never nursed

An Aphrodite for mortal souls
Playing hide and seek in lecherous roles
Their erotic hour my tearless weep
Their satisfaction my infinite sleep

Naked limbs reflecting from the moon
I'll be there for you soon
First wish for this night:
Let me be your delight
Body of a virgin
Sold to the Devil's kin
Your God is me
In all that you see

An Aphrodite for mortal souls
Playing hide and seek in lecherous roles
Their erotic hour my tearless weep
Their satisfaction my infinite sleep

[opera solo]

Passion and the Opera (translation by Maria Immortamo)

Princess of passion
Honor turned to dust
Contemplation of the virgin -
Like a forbidden fruit
Drink the rain of lies
From my hips
Such a cursed picture
Breasts that have never nursed

Aphrodite for mortals
Plays hide and seek in lecherous roles
Their hour of pleasure is my tearless cry
Their satisfaction is my deep sleep

Naked hooligans reflecting from the moon,
I will soon join you
First, I want
That tonight you admire me
Body of a virgin
Sold to the devil's kin
I am your god
In everything you see

Aphrodite for mortals
Plays hide and seek in lecherous roles
Their hour of pleasure is my tearless cry
Their satisfaction is my deep sleep

[opera part solo]

There's a separate thread for text-related discussions, unless the moderators have removed it, but this seems a bit off-topic.

I saw it, but that topic is already closed...

No, my favorite album is definitely the latest one. Although, it's annoying that in every song, some guy says, "You're listening to Nightwish, the album Dark Passion Play, listen to this song." Or is it just me?

No, it's definitely my favorite album. Although, it's annoying that in every song, some guy says, "You're listening to Nightwish, the album Dark Passion Play, play this song." Or is it just me?

I don't know, I don't know, I don't have that:

The latest album is definitely good, almost every song is enjoyable, but nothing the band has done is better than Wishmaster :p

I like Once, but it depends on my mood.

Nightwish is one of my favorite bands. Tarja is simply lovely, I adore her with all my heart :), in my opinion, she has the best voice I've ever heard... Tuomas is... well, let's just say he's something else. I rarely listen to the new album; I prefer their older ones or Tarja's solo work (May Winter Storm)...

I agree with many who have said that Nightwish is an amazing band!
For me personally, they only exist with Tarja, and it's a pity that they broke up.
What's surprising is that the band has both beautiful ballads and serious metal. And also, the rhythm can change several times within a single song. They are very diverse. There are very pleasant melodies. Well done!!!
More than half of the songs deserve attention – they are like hits.
And "Winter Storm" should be singled out. The beauty of Tarja's voice makes itself known! Although, not everything on the album is perfect... but still, I like it.

The coolest band...
Annette Olzon - amno
Turunen rocks!
For me, Nightwish is divided into 2 groups: NightWish and Dead Nightwish (with Anna). In the latter, the music is generally cool, but the voice... boo...
Whirlwind, will you give me and Maggot a decent album (without you listening to the new Nightwish album))

The coolest group ever...

Among whom? :D

annet olzan - amno

Arguments? ;)
Although, no... Among whom? :D

Whirlwind, are you going to share a decent album with me and Maggot (not just "You Are Listening to a New Nightwish Album")?

Beat Whirlwind! :D

I also have a normal one, I don't know what's wrong with yours... Annette is doing fine.

Annette’s voice is only bad because it’s not like Tarja’s ;) Otherwise, it’s not any worse and sounds great. If they had found a vocalist with an operatic voice who sang even worse than Tarja, then I would understand the criticism directed at her.

Whirlwind, are you going to give Maggot and me a decent album (without any “you are listening to a new Nightwish album”)?

Basically, why would you listen to an album with Annette if you don’t like it in the first place?

2 Maggot The coolest band among all the ones I've listened to, except for Prodigy (because you can't compare them, and Prodigy is awesome). Annette is better than Tarja. 2 Whirlwind The music is good, though. Added 1 minute later P.S. Has anyone listened to Anette's live album? It's terrible! She ruined Nightwish! Tarja also sings worse at concerts than usual, but not to that extent...
