...of ?
Of music obviously. Is this rock'n'roll ? Polite music for good kids, with good grades at school who doesn't know how the beer tastes in the park

Solid opinion. Never? She is already better! Oh btw OP clip is from one of first gigs. When she had a flu and did not know the words! How about 5 days later?

I still have the same opinion. But it's definitely better than Anette. Anyway, what do you mean by the scene in Finland is not that big? That doesn't mean anything, unless you know Tuomas, you can't say that you can be sure of Tarja not coming back at some point.

You are pulling my leg? As you hail from country that has population of 65 million and I´m from country that has only 5 million. I say it this way. In small scenes people tend to know eachother. Satisfied? I add that I have no direct connection to any of the Nightwish family members. Rumours, rumours, friends gossip, rumours...

I'm not from a country with 65 million of people. But you saying something for sure just because of rumours/friends gossip, doesn't make sense.

Well, maybe I should have added a clauce? Here it is. Not sure, but as I have been around the scene for two decades I kinda know whose word to trust and whose not. Happy?
Re: Music: Nightwish replaces Anette Olzon with Floor Jansen!
Really, this got me all excited for Nightwish. Anette was good in studio albums...but live, she was just pretty average. Nightwish visited my hometown couple of times but despite being big fan of the band, I just couldn't get excited over their live show. Anette lacked the voice and presence of a metal singer. Tarja was also not that great live performer. Floor, OTOH, is crazy over with the crowds already.
You know, it is pretty funny when NW fans have been fighting Tarja vs Anette battle for 5 years, then when Anette was sick, Elize Ryd filled her in with 30 minutes preparation and sounded better live than Anette OR Tarja ever:
And now there is Floor acing the songs with few weeks preparation. It begs the question, why the hell was NW handicapping itself with average singers for so long??

Only one man can answer. He who is taking all hits! Last album cost 1.2 million and brough in 500 thousand. Roughly. I have no idea of real numbers. I think they broke even, at best.
