Author: Sexcellent Bickwuck http://nightwish.urbanup.com/71913. (Nightwish) (610↑, 63↓)A very talented, original, and powerful band. Takes great parts of metal, classical, and opera and fuses them into beautiful music.Nightwish rocks the house.
Author: yeah and stuff http://nightwish.urbanup.com/1158004. (Nightwish) (501↑, 78↓)A heavy metal band from Finland, and easily one of the goddamned best to have graced the music world. Combining talent, awesome lyrics and kick-ass music into one mind-blowing whole, nobody can play gothic metal like Nightwish can. They don't posturate their music in an over-the-top, "we're evil goths and we love it" attitude that many other metal bands seem to (*cough* Marilyn Manson *cough*), and the Heavy Metal world just wouldn't be complete without them.Nightwish... Underrated personifications of Melodic metal. It's difficult to praise 'em too much... they flat out kick ass. What's Metallica doing at the top of the charts, anyway?

Author: Mr Sinister http://nightwish.urbanup.com/8962266. (Nightwish) (330↑, 58↓)One of the greatest bands in the world, featuring one of the greatest singers in the world, Tarja Turunen. They prove that you don't have to use the word "pain" in every other song in order to write lyrics, that girl singers (and rock singers in general) do not have to whine, and that talented musicians can and do show off their skill playing in metal bands. Oh, and they also used the same orchestra from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack on their album "Once".Nightwish are what Evanescence only wishes they could be.
Author: Idont Havaname http://nightwish.urbanup.com/11117367. (nightwish) (266↑, 60↓)Unlike the negative definitions sent in under the word look up of '[Metal]', Nightwish isn't about "someone being tortured and beaten, and the sound of people stomping on small animals." They combined something unique. Symphonic, classical music and opera combined with parts of power metal. Okay, so the "Ocean soul" part has been overdone a bit, and so is the sea motif put in almost every song. But Nightwish is still a good band. That's just Tuomas thinks. His thoughts are in a "Sea of Thoughts", and writes them down and turns it into a song.Maybe Tuomas should think more than just the ocean?

Author: Hayley http://nightwish.urbanup.com/14810509. (nightwish) (148↑, 48↓)An pretty good band from Finland. They aren't my favorite band ever, but they are still a pretty good band. Plays catchy melodic goth/power metal and made one of the best Metal albums ever, [Century Child].Some poseur kid who listens to nu metal: AGH FUCKING POSEURS NIGHTWISH SUCKS LISTEN TO LINKIN PARK FOR REAL METAL Me: Linkin Park aren't metal. They are pop-rock with a very slight metal influence. Nightwish is one of the best metal bands out there, shithead.
Author: DJ-BILLZ http://nightwish.urbanup.com/135582210. (Nightwish) (115↑, 22↓)A symphonic/power metal band which creates one of the greatest music of our generation. It combines classical music with power metal, strong vocals full of emotion and beautiful poetic lyrics. Their songs usually have an epic feel about them. Some people may find them cheesy because sadly nowdays having feelings means you're pathetic.Nightwish is the music for people who are not afraid and/or ashamed of sometimes dreaming the world away. It's beautiful music for beautiful souls.
Author: dorotheea http://nightwish.urbanup.com/259426011. (Nightwish) (97↑, 35↓)Awesome Finnish metal band, who now has a new singer, Anette Olzon. Sure she aint opera but she is awesome, so Nightwish lives on.I really wanted to go see Nightwish =,(

Author: TheEscapist http://nightwish.urbanup.com/321762113. (Nightwish) (12↑, 6↓)symphonic metal band from Finland. Nightwish is more then a metal culture, it's also very well made music which combines elements of classical and metal and opera singing. The first singer Tarja Turunen was a trained opera singer and now she is kicked out from the band. The new singer is Anette Olzon - she is average singer and (in my opinion) not as good as Tarja but their music is always worth hearing with Tarja or without her. The composer of most songs is keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen This band is so much more they music itself - it's just delightful.Nightwish - Siren A lady with a violin, Playing to the seas Hearken to the sound of calling Who tied my hands to the wheel? The Zodiac turns over me\! Come to me... Somewhere there my fate revealed... I hear but how will I see? I tied myself to the wheel The winds talk to my sails, not me Come to me... Somewhere there my fate revealed... I hear but how will I see?
Author: Dyanna Zi http://nightwish.urbanup.com/525331614. (nightwish) (76↑, 111↓)A great symphonic metal band, alas doomed to falure after Tarja Turunen's quittal. Don't get me wrong, the other players are really good musicians, and had it been any other band (especially with a male singer) they could have lived on with a replacement, but Tarja, in large part due to her being a quite good looking female and having a quite unique voice in the metal arena, was literaly the face and signature of Nightwish, carrying Nightwish's public profile higher than everyone else put together. Without her, the others are a bunch of great musicians, but they are not Nightwish anymore.Q: What do you get when you separate Nightwish and Tarja? A: Tarja.

Author: Nici http://nightwish.urbanup.com/114739918. (nightwish) (26↑, 126↓)A popular Finnish metal band that is in desperate need of innovation. Distinct for being popular not only in Europe, but also in the U.S. and other countries across the pond. Known for the poetic lyrics of their frontman, Tuomas Holopainen, and the operatic voice of Tarja Turunen, who has since left (forcibly) due to band drama. Nightwish seems to want to produce music that is of a more mature grade than what comes to mind when one thinks of "metal," and succeeded, but only at first. After five albums they are still singing about the SAME things and in many cases, using the EXACT SAME words, phrases, and motifs. The ocean soul thing was insightful back in Oceanborn, but four albums later, it starts to feel like Tuomas has fashioned his ocean soul into a metal hammer that he has been swiftly and forcefully smashing against my head for the past four years. Unfortunately my desire to listen to them has been steadily leaking out of the resulting hole in my skull. Their soft, melodic signature that they started with has been compromised by a vicious repetition of symbology and the overtly elementary singing skills of bassist Marco Hietala, who has since gotten more and more singing parts in recent albums. What began as a borderline revolution in metal has turned into a musical Days of our Lives - stagnant as a quadriplegic's legs, derivative of itself, and giving off a throbbing feeling that you already watched this shit ten years ago.Fan 1: Poor Nightwish...what's with Marco's voice on Wish I Had an Angel? Fan 2: His vocal chords were raping his mouth that day, but they had to record then no matter what because Tuomas had just discovered a way to reword the Ocean Soul metaphor to actually sound convincingly new, and he would have lost the idea if they waited a whole day. Fan 1: Oh. Fan 2: Well, don't believe everything you read in Rolling Stone.
