Tarja Turunen

I like her solo stuff more than anything ever released by NW

Awesome song. It's a song I would love to sleep to.. lol. I might get it just to add it to my sleep playlist. Her voice is soothing.

It's totally my fav of her songs, and the video is shockingly beautiful <3

awesome

I wasn't impressed with Falling Awake or My Last Breath but I Feel Immortal is beautiful (:

MWS was an okish album. I loved My Winter Storm, My Little Phoenix, Die Alive, The Reign and Lost Northern Star.

I love Tarja <3 I prefer her with NW, but I like her solo stuff too. I hope her next album is better than MWS. I think MWS was okay, but she could have done better.

I adore Tarja <333

I prefer her with NW, but I like her solo stuff too.

I have to agree <3

I like 'I Walk Alone'. Fckn depressing but oh so good

I love depressing music lol

Has anyone listened to the sample clips for the new album? (http://www.tarja-whatliesbeneath.com)

I think it's sounds a bit better than MWS. I like that it's more rock. But most of the songs seem very...."meh" to me. I love "I Feel Immortal" (not on the US version ;___; *cries* ), "Underneath", "Little Lies", "The Archieve of Lost Dreams", and "Naiad". And "Anteroom of Death" and "Still of the Night" are my least favorites >_<;;;

AWESOME SINGER AND SONG...LOVE HER *-*

Tarja album is out~~~~!!!!!

I love Tarja, but I miss the lyrics from Nightwish since Toumas wrote them. He's a better lyric writer in my opinion. But I do like her solo work. Personally, I liked My Winter Storm better than the new album, I feel it was more heartfelt and less mainstream. I hate mainstream.

And I LOVE the video for I Feel Immortal and the followup vid Until My Last Breath (the original video). I did not like the new one as much. I don't know why people made such a fuss about shooting a second vid in the same location, I really enjoyed it. I wonder if people's complaining is the reason she made the second version?

ugh.. i think im the only one who is creeped out by her voice..

i think its a little tooooo powerful / operatic for me

The new album sounds really emotionless to me, can't enjoy it much because of it. I prefer MWS to it easily

Nightwish was way better with her than they are with Anette. Or I think this way because I was used to hear Tarja's voice and it sounded very diffrent when I heard Anette. I only listened to I Walk Alone as her solo stuff. I think that Tarja was stronger when her voice was combined with Tuomas' creativity and Nightwish's graceful and dark atmosphere.

I feel the same way. I loved MWS, it was so beautiful. The new album was disappointing to me.

Wonderful artist and one of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of meeting .

I prefer MWS to WLB, but I still listen to both often. I love her more in Nightwish, but her solo stuff is still alright. I still like to listen to it if I'm in the mood.

I agree, though, MWS is more... personal, I guess. Much better lyrics in my opinion.

Tarja <3
I went to her concert and it was amazing.
Her voice live is the same as on the album.
Shes one of the best singers ever!

I would LOVE to see Tarja live! <3

Lovely song ^^ Reminds me of the first album.

That's what i thought too! It reminds me of MWS.

I hope her next album will be better than WLB. But i think MWS will always be her masterpiece (in my opinion).

NEW MUSIC VIDEO!



Her pronunciation has always been a bit silly, but here I just love how she says RRRRITUAAL xD
Also love the video, art is the greatest ^_^

//I realized the video may not be available for some, and I can't find another link for it :< Just this video that I can't see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZsH382Oz8Y

There's also a trailer: http://vimeo.com/69823110

//Right, I can see the video through hidemyass xD http://1.hidemyass.com/ip-4/encoded/Oi8vd3d3LnlvdXR1YmUuY29tL3dhdGNoP3Y9UlpzSDM4Mk96OFk%3D&f=norefer

OMG I love it! And I agree, I don't mind Tarja's pronunciation and I like the trilled R in the chorus. It makes it sound a bit more special. I'm so excited for her new album, but my goodness....the cover sure is ugly.

It is ugly, but I like the concept and the colors need to be bright... I love her coat though, it reminds me of the coats the Organization XIII members wear in Kingdom Hearts II ^____^

lol, it does xD If Axel was on the cover I wouldn't mind it so much ;D

Like this? huehuehue :D
(yes, i made it)

I was kidding about it looking better but actually.....it DOES look a lot better O_O Totally replacing the cover art on my iPod now  

The album cover is crazy indeed but i'm excited for the album, Victim of Ritual could be her best solo track so far

Yeas, Victim of ritual is powerful song.
'Never enough' is not though.

So cool! Did you enter the Left in the Dark contest too?

It was only a week long I think >_<

I met this woman yesterday. It made me love her even more. She is incredibly sweet, kind, lovely... And the concert was a blast.
Overall, I'm speechless. <3 :')

You are so lucky <3 Did you get to go backstage or something?

My friends work on TV as reporters and they were doing the interview. So they brought me along. We were late at first (horrible traffic jam) but it's was not a problem at all, she was so sweet <3
I froze completely when she came. She shook hands with all 4 of us (though when she was walking towards me my friend said to my ear "Get up, say hi to her!", and so I did thanks to him xD). It's a weird feeling. And she is very small, tiny. So the interview took 20min and the whole time I sat there, looking at her, not saying a word, hypnotized And at the end she even sang "Happy birthday song" to Dusan (the guy who interviewed her) and my heart started racing when she started to sing, her voice is crystal clear and waaaa. <3
And the concert...... She is such an amazing performer, I have no words.

EDIT:

Hahah look at me I'm like *.*

Aw, that's so cool! What did she say in the interview?

A whole bunch of things!
I'll post the video here when it gets out.
Mostly she was talking about the tour and stuff.
