Yes, this is Tarja... this was a golden era of Nightwish, that can not be repeated. And i am glad, that I was a part of it these days. It was pure love... of course Floor is a great singer, but like always in life, the first love will never be forgotten!

Tarja's vocals were AMAZING!!! She always brought such emotion to these songs and continues to have a very successful solo career 💗

Tarja is simply incredible, the adaptation she makes of her lyrical voice to metal is simply something worth seeing. From Tarja's stage in Nightwhish there are wonderful interpretations, but you should react to "The Phantom of the Opera" and the original version of "Ghost Love Score". Two authentic jewels that will undoubtedly leave you impressed by its greatness.

Tarja looking and sounding stunningly beautiful here. Quite simply the best version of this magical song.

Queen Tarja, the only one who can cut my soul into pieces.

Such elegance, such beauty, such grace... the likes of which we rarely witness. Thanks for sharing some Tarja Nightwish with us.

Tarja❤❤❤ is the best singer, old but gold nightwish, as we know them

2023. From an Asian listener , I must admit she got the best voice I ever heard from a female vocal blended with that music....amazing combination overall

For more of Tarja singing as only she can sing, I suggest "Slaying the Dreamer" and "The Siren" from this same concert, End of an Era.

A beautiful Nightwish classic 🙂

yes this is Tarja, the one and only! ❣happy you stumbled across her by accident, she was pretty great :)

I am finnish music lover and followed Nightwish from their start. For me it was surprising that Nightwish ever could go on without Tarja because she and Tuomas toghether kind of was Nightwish. I am happy that it worked out in the end. And I adore Floor Jansen. But still feel Tarja got robbed. She WAS the first of whole genre.

OMG TARJA!!!! I LOVE TARJA'S VOICE

Queen Tarja is anazing. She was great with Nightwish and has had an amazing solo career.

Tarja..... Tarja is always the Queen of Metal.

It is wonderful that you are reacting to Tarja too😁 She too, has a beautiful and unique voice

Hello Sarah, Nightwish Army Italian Division here. It is impossible to compare the voices of the three singers of Nightwish's history and it would not even be fair to them. Three incredibly talented and wonderful but different voices. By the way Nightwish are always Nightwish ❤🤟🤟🤟

I cannot listen to this without bawling my eyes out. Tarja's voice just kills me. It's so incredible.

Queen Tarja!!!!

This is definitely my favourite version of this song.

Sorry Floor, 'this isTarjas' 🇸🇪🇫🇮

My Love Tarja Turunen. 😍🤩

Tarja4Evr, the original singer of NW. ❤ I’m happy she has a great solo career. 🙏

Tarja, the unique goddess from symphonic metal.

The Tarja years were true Nightwish.

Hi Sarah! I have two Finnish favorite band "Nightwish" and the rock band "Hurriganes", was very popular in Finland, Sweden and Estonia in the 1970s and early 1980s. More reaction video by "Nightwish and Tarja Turunen" her voice is so powerful. and the Finnish rock band "Hurriganes". Thank Sarah, for a great reaction video! 👍

The one and only !!

Tarja Turunen was a founder of the band with Tuomas and Emppu. It was her voice that helped define/create the genre of symphonic metal. 1996 - to this night Oct 21, 2005. The split was not amicable and all parties admit handled badly. This was the end of the world tour for their 5th album Once. On which you find this remixed version of the single from 1999 written by request of Finland's tourism industry for that year's solar elclipse. Tarja very much a driving perfectionist was unhappy with her original recording. New equipment, more formal education at a German music academy, the band more experienced. They knew they could do better. This even has a 2nd official video featuring the entire band at the time not just a young 20 yo Tarja. They slowed the tempo slightly. The video has a knights in armour fantasy theme. Tarja as an Angel (of death) perhaps? Once was the 1st album to feature the London UK Symphony Orchestra and London Metro Voices choir on it. Released in 2004. That same gown is seen in the 2nd video. 9 years, world tours. Festivals, TV etc. They were in top form even though both Tarja and Marko had colds. Heck Tarja was given DR's orders not to perform that night as she could not sing the sound check. But last night of the tour back home in Finland. Recording for the DVD was already scheduled. They couldn't postpone it. And still it sounds so beautiful. Tarja and Marko have classical training. The contrast yet match between them you will discover was an era of pure magic. 222 days of night is how far into the year before the eclipse happened. The audience was 11, 500 in attendence. The rapture Tarja holds the audience has only grown stronger in her solo career since 2007. She is a global superstar and this week her In The Raw tour is going through Germany. There are so many performances to see that have top notch recordings you can be years going through them. Should be mentioned Tarja ever humble and sweet, loved by everyone including Floor Jansen who went to Tarja 1st as they were friends when offered to join NightWish as their 3rd singer after Anette had to leave tour. She went into labour with her child over xmas. Tarja gave Floor her blessings. They met when Floor was still in her previous band. The Ladies are fast friends to this day. And Kittos ( thank you) for this reaction.

THE QUEEN

TARJA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GODDESS

Good reaction Sarah. I love Floor but for me "Sleeping Sun" is TARJA forever. Greetings from Italy

My most favourite of all. Tarja inspired me to study Opera.

So nice to see a Tarja review. I am a ‘Floorfan’ above all, but both previous singers contributed so much to Nightwish and any appreciation of the entirety of Nightwish requires due attention be given to Tarja and Anette. Even as a devout Floorfan, I think reactors to Floor renditions of Nightwish run the risk of missing the talents of her predecessors.

Thank you for Nightwish with Tarja Turunen!

Tarja is unique!!! If her voice doesn't make you well up, then you're eithed deaf or dead...

you may want to check out the same song with Tarja and Steven n Segull's. They did a more upbeat bluegrass version

Tarja is symphonic rock, and floor is rock

Some people are Tarja fans while others are Floor. For me, I like them both.

I love all three singers in this band. It’s so nice to get a Tarja song. Most reactions are Floor which is how it should be, since she’s their present singer. But the variety is welcome.

Tarja!! So underrated. Should have had a lot more exposure .

I think this is clearly the best and most emotional live there is of this great NW ballad. Up to this they have done 5 albums already and grown to the global leader of this genre from zero.

Sarah, I’m so glad you discovered Nightwish, isn’t she just breathtaking

Tarja the queen 👸

What Tuomas did to Tarja was unacceptable. Today, Tarja is very stronger and successful and I am so happy for her. And Marko quit Nightwish too, after Jukka for medical reasons. Flor is the unique singer now in this group. And Tarja, I always used to love until 2005, created a very solid and good group. I was in her Raw Tour concert in Paris on february 6th, it was UNBELIEVABLE ❤❤❤❤❤❤, so GOOD, 16 years after the horrible souvenir in 2005 after the last concert, by a letter at her hotel. What a terrible shame to the Nightwish group of the moment 👿👿👿👿👿

Deberías ver este concierto completo, es alucinante. Saludos ✌️

Tarja's solo work is amazing. Check out her cover of the Muse song 'Supremacy' live. Also, her own stuff, such as Lucid Dreamer or Die Alive.

Every time i listen to this song it makes me cry. Its magic. It takes you to another place. 😥😥

Tarja era Nightwish delivers a paranormal vibe balanced between light and dark. Very special years.

Magnificent! I enjoy everything they do. 😊

She also touches my soul too

El mejor Nightwish....lejos

there are some songs according to Floor, but THIS song belongs to Tarja ! Her kind of singing is perfect to the emotion and the sound of the song.....I don't need to decide between.....both of them have THEIR songs !

Marco, Anette & Floor are very good singers But Tarja is a fucking divine Diva🔥💖🔪🔪

Love your reaction

Even after listening to it many times, I still get goosebumps.

I love Nightwish from the very first beginning and it is always so nice to see someone reacting to Tarja or Anette. I get a bit tired of all the reactions to Floor, because KZfaq is full of them. Always the same songs, too. So that is just boring. Still I love Floor, but there should be way more reactions to the others as well, especially to Tarja, because it all began with her. And not only to Phantom of the Opera, but also to more rare songs, beginning with the title song of their debut album Angels Fall First, for example.

La migliore.

Ame tu reacion

Hi nice reaction

No doubt that Tarja and Floor are the 2 best Nightwish lead singers and both bring a uniqueness to Nightwish. Comparing them would be like Who would you favour: Your son or your daughter? Can't chose right? Having said all this, Some songs are just generally better done by the one singer than the other such as this song I prefer Tarja's voice over Floor even though I am a Floor fan.

Thanks!!

Amazing.

Nightwish is gone without Tarja. They can play whatever they want but Tarja was and will always be Nightwish. I will never listen to their "new" stuff. Without Tarja, they're gone.

This song with Tarja singing is comparable with what The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy does to me 🙏❤️💯

Please react to more Tarja's songs

Before Empuu's purple guitar.

Queen of Elves

the best

kiitos

My exakt same thoughts 👍

love when people say Tarja dont match the sound of Nightwish! ;) who is she? :)

Tarja amuuu❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🤘🤘🤘

Nice reaction! But I don't see 'Phantom of the Opera' with Tarja. Try that one, it won't disappoint

Version 2: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNmfp8-r15_bfqs.html

Signature Tarja

🤩👌💥💯 🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙

😁👍👍👍🇧🇷

If you wish to react to an artist you may not have heard of, I recommend Aesthetic Perfection with Gods & Gold

I love Floor, but this song belongs to Tarja. She has a haunting sound on this.

so who is tarja? it's a shame to call yourself a nightwish fan and not know who she is she was an era that's what the "end of an era" concert is for when Taria sang, people discovered something unheard of before and now it's just "after forever" singing nightwish songs do you at least know what "after forever" is?

For metalhead...nightwish is tarja

All my toxic masculinity can’t stop me from the feels

Too many Tarja fans forget it was she who told the band she was going to quit for a solo career, and never turned up to practise. All stories have two sides.

what is the fun to watch some girl watching some music?? whet is the point, explain me

Tarja IS Nightwish. Stop!

Cada um com sua preferência, mas para mim é indiscutível o quanto Floor é tecnicamente melhor do que Tarja. Nem entro na questão da versatilidade e carisma.
