^Me too!!!
I wonder if they are going to choose someone with a voice similar to Tarja.

I'm guessing they'll pick somebody with the same kind of range as Tarja (or maybe even a bigger range) so that the new vocalist could sing the old Nightwish songs as well. I have no doubt she'll have an amazing voice and that the band are really working on finding the best vocalist possible!

Yeah, they definetly need someone that can sing the older material as well.
There's been so many rumours as to who is getting the job....I just want them to decide and announce it.

I agree! But sometimes different is good

Absolutely Vivi.
Change can sometimes be a very good thing. I'm really looking forward to hearing the new music. I'm confident no matter who they choose to sing for them will be more than capable.

telling to the fans to write to him, that he will try to aswer to the questions, and that is sick of the things that Tuomas has beem saying..

read it:


MESSAGE FROM MARCELO
After the concert of Nightwish in Hartwall Areena last October 2005, many things happened.

As is already public domain, the band members decided to stop working with Tarja and they made clear their point of view through an open letter posted in the band’s web page and through many interviews given at that same moment.

Since then, I have been waiting without luck, for Tuomas Holopainen to stop disrespecting my wife and me in public. But, unfortunately, seems that he has no intention to stop doing it.

In 5 years time, he had uncountable chances in buses, hotels, planes, airports, concert halls and offices to tell me in my face his ideas and opinions. He didn’t. Seems it has been for him very hard to speak to me, but very easy to speak to the rest of the world…

He is trying to put me down, helped by some people around him willing to show their faces in the media. I got tired of their impunity to talk about things that affect other persons. Now is time that you hear not only their opinions about things, but also mine.

There are so many things to say. Based in the emails that I have received from fans of the band and Tarja, I realized that the best that I can do is to let the fans ask me what they want to know.

Until now I haven’t been replying to these emails, as I have been willing not to discuss about the facts that happened, but everything has a limit and now I find myself forced to do it.

Until next March 1st, for this purpose, I will be receiving questions regarding every topic you want to ask (without restrictions) to the following email address: questionsnw@yahoo.com.ar

I wish to be able to answer to the people that might be really interested to know. In order to avoid wasting time with emails of other kind, I will request that every email sent has as subject the following info: complete name of sender (not nickname), ID number and country of origin. Please send the questions in English (or Spanish).

I expect to receive many questions and it will demand me some time to go through all of them.

The questions (with the name of the person that made it) and answers will be posted in www.tarjaturunen.com

You have heard and read so far only Tuomas Holopainen’s opinion about facts related to Nightwish, Tarja and myself. Many of you won’t like to read what I will have to say. Neither I’ll like to
say it.


what do u think??
Marcelo Cabuli.

Hmmm..

What I don't understand is that if Tarja and her husband aren't to blame
Why would Tuomas ( and the rest of Nightwish) kick her out the way that they did?
She was the most recognisable face of the band. They took a risk that they could possibly lose a chunk of there fanbase with the decision.

It makes no sense to me.

At the end of the day it's Tuomas' band and his decision is final. We all as fans have to either move forward with the band and there new singer or not. Stewing over the what ifs doesn't help anyone.

the problem there is simple. something very wrong is hapenning, and that is they are fighting an personnal war through the Fans!!!
they shouldn't be doing that.

In the world of internet and media hype, it sadly happens.
Part of me doesn't want to know, part of needs to know.

I haven't read any more articles from either side, so perhaps it is dying down. I hope so, they both need to concentrate on there music and not worry what the other is doing.
