Definitely of my all time favourites. Tarja shows her mastery here like no other. I only wish she brings it back one day with full orchestra like with Beauty of the Beast.

Come on, get over Tarja. She still sings beautiful music and I still listen to her songs and follow her. Each of Nightwish's singers have strong, beautiful voices, and they are number one, no matter who sings lead.
Tarja has a great voice, that 4 sure.But.....;-) By the way this is my fav.song from Nightwish!!!Look what this little Chinese girl do with her woice! Listen it till the end!
Я прожил много лет своей жизни,но кикогда не слышал вашу групу,но ваш голос меня покорил,я в восторге,и скажу вам по секрету,у меня есть слух.Я слишу вы поёте божествено
Congratulations, a superb video with those photos. Tarja además de tener una voz inconmensurable, es una mujer de bandera, es así como en España decimos a las mujeres guapas y con un cuerpo muy bonito y bien esculturado, o sea un bombón. She is one of the prettiest, most wonderful, most beautiful, best-looking, fantastic body, etc., all of she is at the same level as her voice.
"Old fans loves Tarja, New fans loves Anette. Stop this bullshit and lets all love Nightwish!" I disagree with these comments, the reason why i love Nightwish is this amazing voice of Tarja. No woman on this earth has this amazing voice. Love it.
!!que chica tan hermosa!! y.. !!que voz tan espectacular!! me gustó mucho cuando cantó junto a Scorpions el grupo de mis amores el tema de su disco Sting in the tail llamado "the good die young" junto al gran Klaus Meine eso si que fué algo para recordar.
Nightwish makes me want to Headbang, but at the same time i want to conduct an imaginary orchestra, and at the same time i want to pretend i can sing as beautiful as Tarja, the magic of Nightwish
this song has so much texture, so much emotion, and is a piece of art .. thx for the years u made my life so fucking happy just listening ur songs, after End of an era, nightwish turned.. well u all know..
I am a big fan of Nightwish and Tarja!!! and finally i will see her at 31/10/14 here in Athens - Greece!!! For many years I want to see her but i never take this magic ticket! now I have it!!! :D
James, on April 13, 2015 I saw Nightwish in Quebec City. Their new singer Floor Jansen sang two old Tarja songs Stargazers and Sleeping Sun. It was fantastic. Annette could not have pulled this off. She was too lightweight for this band. Floor is an amazing singer. Check them out now.
Best Live video youll ever see with Targa singing is at 7:15 in the vid, Its called She is my Sin Live 2003. Targa goes full voice the whole song and its epic.
Anders Midnatt HA ha ha. My speakers couldn't handle the power of Floor and Marco combined on Ever Dream. If I ever meet them I'm gonna ask for some compensation XD (Joking)
@NovaTheli It's funny how Tarja, the angel/diva, becomes the symbol of the band, yet Toumas is the genius behind it. Started it, and composes all the music, lyrics, and everyone's part! Brilliance! As a team, they're flippin' gods! They totally should have got together ;-)
I see a story full of lore and deep crazy characters with this song. All of nightwish has that rich musical texture since their founding to their newest material.
Hamster Munchies, I was in tears half way through this song it was so beautifully done. I guess this old metal head has a sensitive side also. Thank you for your kind comments.
Nigjtwish-wishmaster album is the best nightwish album ever! Tarja was the real nightwish! Anatte era softly shit was...Floor cool good choise...good singer..new way but realistic...
+Criticall Beetz Annette not shit, but a different voice and different style. Far too popish for me. With songs of the caliber of Nightwish the singers are not interchangeable. At this level no one can duplicate another singers performance. They can do a good or even great job on a song but Tarja and Floor are unique. Their voices are different and cannot be the same.
Lauren Kerridge I believe she might, barely. Floor has a great vocal range, while Tarja is all about high notes. I believe Floor could hit the heights, but I doubt she could hold them for a period Tarja can. Tarja's voice, on the other hand, couldn't sink as low as Floor's, and I believe her attempts at growls would be either laughable or just outright pathetic, where Floor is just awesome :D The first albums, though, were written exactly for Tarja's voice, and any singer that is not a soprano (operatic trained) would have, at best, a difficult task. I wish the guys would let Floor test her skills in these, but knowing the grudge that Tuomas holds for Tarja, I believe he would stay far from them. Or, he would instruct Floor to change the height/melody/pitch of singing. Ah, well, we might never know, or we might be pleasantly surprised one day. Hopefully, Tuomas won't have a crush again, or Floor might reciprocate. Otherwise we might get another Anette *shudders*...
James Jonson Yeah, hopefully one day they'll give her a chance :) I thought Anette was good to be honest, I don't see why so many people used to complain about her voice. I personally think the 2 albums they bought out with her were some of their best work! I'm sooo happy Floor is in the band now though because she's one of my favourite singers :D Also, Anette had about a week or so of operatic training and she sounded so good already in one performance (outside of Nightwish, not sure if you've seen it or not). So, if Tuomas was to have given her a year or more of training she could have sounded even better!
James Jonson songs are written for the performer. You don't have to be able to do some song as good as someone song was written for to be a good singer. There are excellent songs written for Anette or Floor and Tarja won't be able to sing them equally good.
ActuallyLorti I agree that songs are written for performer. There are songs of Britney Spears, 2Pac and Die Antwoord that Tarja would absolutely suck at singing. Notice the difference?
Intro is almost the same of a sega master system game called Y's and the music were playing in the game while fighting with a kind of ghost :) I guess Tuomas took inspiration from that game :))
Old Nightwish albums are pure gold❤
Terrific. No one can sing like this except Tarja.
The music of Nightwish takes me on journeys like no other band can. I close my eyes and it takes me completely.
Просто магия - такие песни заставляют жить - дают уверенность ! Класс .
Definitely of my all time favourites. Tarja shows her mastery here like no other. I only wish she brings it back one day with full orchestra like with Beauty of the Beast.
Wish upon a star
Take a step enter the land
Walk through the air
Take my hand
Wishmaster's will-
Join him the quest for dream
A make-believe
Is all we ever need
Wish upon a star
No matter who you are
The second star to the right
Harbinger's gate
Beyond the boundaries
Blossom ballet
In the great wide somewhere
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
The master of the tale-like lore
The way to kingdom I adore
Where the warrior's heart is pure
Where the stories will come true
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
The master of the tale-like lore
The way to kingdom I adore
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
The master of the tale-like lore
The way to kingdom I adore
A cub of the king betrayed by usurper
A girl in the rain swearing to her father's name
Belle the last sight for the dying gruesome
The beauties sleeping awaiting
Deep in a dream
For true love's first kiss
Bald Mountain Night
Devilheart endures but light
A mad aerial dance
Chernabog's succubi
Black Cauldron born
Gurgi's heart forlorn
Pig-keeper or hero
On a quest of augury
Maleficent's fury
The spindle so luring
Dragon fight, dying night
Dooming might
Apprentice of Yen Sid
Conducting the galaxy
Dreamer on mountaintop
Spellbound masquerade
The Sailor an idol for the six-year-old in me
The Phoenix of White Agony Creek
Enchantress, A mermaid in a tale as old as time
A Dragonslayer, The Awakener
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
The master of the tale-like lore
The way to kingdom I adore
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
Wish upon a star
Believe in will
The realm of the king of fantasy
Tarja forever! Fan from Slovenia!
a ti tut a kva
Yes👍
Come on, get over Tarja. She still sings beautiful music and I still listen to her songs and follow her. Each of Nightwish's singers have strong, beautiful voices, and they are number one, no matter who sings lead.
Nightwish is my favorite band, and this is one of my favorite songs💖 Rock on, Nightwish!
In my opinion this the best music of nightwish. I wish to see Tarja sing this music in complet version on your shows!
Tarja is Nightwish...and Nightwish is Tarja....the best voice i ever heard!!!
Tarja has a great voice, that 4 sure.But.....;-) By the way this is my fav.song from Nightwish!!!Look what this little Chinese girl do with her woice! Listen it till the end!
Tarja was just the (beautiful) label, but Tuomas was and is the content. After relabeling twice it's more clear than ever.
I miss the good old Nightwish with the Valhalla voice!
What a nice collection of clips...and the song is one of the greatests of Nightwish.
nightwish is brilliant it's unfortunate that there are so few high quality performance videos from them with tarja.
Я прожил много лет своей жизни,но кикогда не слышал вашу групу,но ваш голос меня покорил,я в восторге,и скажу вам по секрету,у меня есть слух.Я слишу вы поёте божествено
Ее давно нету в группе, выгнали в 2005 ом году.
Congratulations, a superb video with those photos.
Tarja además de tener una voz inconmensurable, es una mujer de bandera, es así como en España decimos a las mujeres guapas y con un cuerpo muy bonito y bien esculturado, o sea un bombón.
She is one of the prettiest, most wonderful, most beautiful, best-looking, fantastic body, etc., all of she is at the same level as her voice.
She has the voice of an Angel without any exaggeration....
Easily my favorite Nightwish song, I've been a Disney buff my whole life, and to see such an awesome band pay tribute to it all...its just...amazing.
At this time, Tarja was nothing less then a goddess!
Yes ... I agree....this time was the root foundation of the success for the band and they made great stuff together.
"Old fans loves Tarja, New fans loves Anette. Stop this bullshit and lets all love Nightwish!"
I disagree with these comments, the reason why i love Nightwish is this amazing voice of Tarja. No woman on this earth has this amazing voice. Love it.
She's a so beautiful singer!
I like her voice really!
Nobody's better than her
Very good song! The flute sound is a bonus.
!!que chica tan hermosa!! y.. !!que voz tan espectacular!! me gustó mucho cuando cantó junto a Scorpions el grupo de mis amores el tema de su disco Sting in the tail llamado "the good die young" junto al gran Klaus Meine eso si que fué algo para recordar.
one of my all-time favorites by nightwish!
This song is so underrated.. one of my favourites for sure❤❤❤❤
Nightwish makes me want to Headbang, but at the same time i want to conduct an imaginary orchestra, and at the same time i want to pretend i can sing as beautiful as Tarja,
the magic of Nightwish
Have to come back here so often cause need a burst of great music.
this song has so much texture, so much emotion, and is a piece of art .. thx for the years u made my life so fucking happy just listening ur songs, after End of an era, nightwish turned.. well u all know..
this is why i tell that tarja is nightwish soul!!!!!
A very underrated song imo. 10/10 :D
one of the best
Tarja Turunen Deusa eterna ❤🎶🎵♩
Tarja is the proof the Goddesses exist!
I am a big fan of Nightwish and Tarja!!! and finally i will see her at 31/10/14 here in Athens - Greece!!! For many years I want to see her but i never take this magic ticket! now I have it!!! :D
just realized this is all about Disney, Tuomas's inspiration. he let's it flow so wonderfully
I love the flutes in the middle of the song. They’re perfect!!!
James, on April 13, 2015 I saw Nightwish in Quebec City. Their new singer Floor Jansen sang two old Tarja songs Stargazers and Sleeping Sun. It was fantastic. Annette could not have pulled this off. She was too lightweight for this band. Floor is an amazing singer. Check them out now.
+Steven Richards I was a blubbering wreck during her version of Sleeping Sun. Was the most heartfelt interpretation of the song I have ever heard.
nightwish is the best band forever i and some of my friends love nightwish we are from Latvia
Best Live video youll ever see with Targa singing is at 7:15 in the vid, Its called She is my Sin Live 2003. Targa goes full voice the whole song and its epic.
seen her in october last year in belgium ... had earplugs ( massive booze headache ) her high notes went right through them ... she is unstoppable
Also she's the second destroyer of the low quality speakers. The first is Floor Jansen.
Anders Midnatt HA ha ha. My speakers couldn't handle the power of Floor and Marco combined on Ever Dream. If I ever meet them I'm gonna ask for some compensation XD (Joking)
Beautiful woman with a beautiful voice in a beautiful song! *.*
Tarja is and always Nightwish
Nightwish is what happens when the gods cry out for pure music!
Old fans loves Tarja ...
New fans loves Anette ...
True fans loves Nightwish, forever !
Love Orchestrated metal. Classic and new. Just EPIC.
Best song of wishmaster album!
Tuomas' attention to detail in the disney refs is AMAZING!
Nightwish é simplesmente incrível, quando ouço me sinto como que levitando em êxtase!❤
Тария вне конкурса!!! Вона краща!!!!!!!!!!!!
@NovaTheli It's funny how Tarja, the angel/diva, becomes the symbol of the band, yet Toumas is the genius behind it. Started it, and composes all the music, lyrics, and everyone's part! Brilliance! As a team, they're flippin' gods! They totally should have got together ;-)
Every song i hear..pure perfection
Man you need a third lung to sing this song. One of Tarja's best vocal works.

Sin dudas esta es LA DIOSA!!!!!!! (Undoubtedly, she's THE GODESS)
Тарья просто умничка
3:05-4:55 pure beauty!!!!!
Nice song.
I kinda like coming to videos like this from the 2000s where the comment section is dead with epic music playing.
I see a story full of lore and deep crazy characters with this song. All of nightwish has that rich musical texture since their founding to their newest material.
A Tarja Apocalíptica insana Deusa bíblica primitiva de energia primária das explosões dos tempos entre o tempo .

Tarja is just a total Goddess, the best front-woman and singer in rock music.
The real Nightwish :3
Tarja is 100%
😎🤘
Hamster Munchies, I was in tears half way through this song it was so beautifully done. I guess this old metal head has a sensitive side also. Thank you for your kind comments.
3:18 - 4:25
Pure goddess bliss.

NIGHTWISH : amazing as allways
Amazing Disney tribute =D Tuomas Holopainen's lyrics =

she is so beautiful! and good singer :D
If they ever find another singer who can do this song as good as Tarja, they should keep her. These others that come after her... no. Not even close.
James Jonson Floor could honestly probably pull this one off :D

People loving Nightwish only because of one member is... kinda sad. Like, come on, vocals are just one of many elements to the greatness of a song.
Exactly! This song is nothing without the great instruments and lyrics all in unison.
picture at 1:51...: ahhh, i would die for her...Love so much.... Forever Tarja
Best song of Nightwish ever!!!
holy crap shes amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
holy crap shes amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pure Epicness :)
Goodbye Tarja Halonen! Tarja Turunen must be The Queen of Finland!!!
Buen inicio, una pasada el piano al inicio
Amazing ❤
It's a magic!
Intro is almost the same of a sega master system game called Y's and the music were playing in the game while fighting with a kind of ghost :) I guess Tuomas took inspiration from that game :))
Sorry but even without hearing your voice i say you can't sing like her.. nobody can sing even 1% like her =)... she's too perfect
I approve of this =D
