I never got what "limited range" to criticize Anette was supposed to mean. Her voice is gorgeous. She reaches super highs (Storytime) and lows (Slow Love Slow). Her live performances (I've seen her twice with NW) are uplifting, warm and energetic. She's kind and accessible (I was on front row and she hugged and kissed with some girls next to me, then held my hands as I congratulated her.) Without any effort, without any growl or screaming or operatics, her pristine, unique and expressive voice gets to your heart. She hits the right chord naturally and that makes her powerful. Yet the people bring out reasons for hating at her by the thousands. People are mad, and that's no news.

Most of her haters are just rude. They dont understand vocal tone or timbre and assume that every style is meant for every singer. Anette has a more Jazz/Rock/Pop voice. She doesnt have a metal voice nor a classical voice... however she COULD easily have a bright classical voice if she trained for it. Her falsettos and head voice are gorgeous! She's growled and used distorted vocals before many times. She is my favorite!

Annete was the kind of singer Toumas was looking for at that time. hell Joanna (his solo work singer and wife) has the same kind of voice. The problem with Annette was she was incosistant as hell live. I saw nightwish twice in the same tour with her. Night to night they were changing tunings etc to deal with her voice issues. Which that's not a huge deal for marco and empuu but when you take into account the backing tracks and toumas having to suddenly play everything in a different key its a major pain in the ass. The reason they did everything in D Standard or Drop C on the decades tour was for Marco since he had just had throat issues and floor could sing it that low. With annette sometimes they were uptuned, sometimes down, and rarely did she sound as good as the album. They didn't have to do that shit for tarja, they don't have to do it for floor, and they didn't even have to do it in denver for Alissa and Elize.

@Jeremy Jensen totally makes sense,the instrumental is old school nightwish (dead boys dream,Nemo etc) which actually got me into nightwish.with the singing style from dark Passion play era.

"Songs The Night Sings" I used to wish and wonder everyday Close my eyes and see where it would take me I'd get lost in my dreams when I was a girl, was a child Restless heart and mind still open wide Running careless under clear and blue skies Even then I did know that one day I would Walk away from the ones who'd enslave me Every pain, every soul who would stain me Leave behind little town where I once swore I will never die here Through the forest of green I will wonder Underneath starry skies I will slumber I will climb every hill, every mountain Till I've seen them all I wanna live the stories I write See the whole world with my own eyes Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna feel the flame when it burns Wanna feel the pain when it hurts Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings And now that I've seen just a little, not a lot But I know who I am and who I am not I could weep for the ones who stumble through life like they're lost Heedless hearts and eyes that must be blind Living joyless under pale and grey skies I just want them to know that right now they could Board the ship, hoist the sail, weigh the anchor Set a course right towards the horizon We can sail every sea, every ocean Till we've seen them all I wanna live the stories I write See the whole world with my own eyes Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna feel the flame when it burns Wanna feel the pain when it hurts Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna live the stories I write See the whole world with my own eyes Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna feel the flame when it burns Wanna feel the pain when it hurts Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna live the stories I write See the whole world with my own eyes Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna feel the flame when it burns Wanna feel the pain when it hurts Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings

Anette is a better singer now than when she was in Nightwish.

What I love currently about Annette is that she's literally BLOOMING! She's healthy and happy. And yes, her and Jani fit each perfectly from a musical standpoint. I'm so happy that they decided for the Dark Element to not be a one time project. They deserve all the success. And they can definitely be the next big symphonic act, they have the perfect formula for it.

She had kind of an attitude problem sir within NW. Not showing up, walking away during concerts when she gets emotional, NOT using head / mixed voice (the reason why she was limited in her range) Live she is not that powerful and yes, I saw her live with NW in Serbia (Nexit festival) which was a bad performance. Sorry. It is on You Tube and just listen honestly and critical. It was really painful to hear. She shines at studio albums, which is totally fine. That is not hate, that is my opinion about her as a singer/performer. It is time that we stop calling critique, hate all the time.

Carlos j.carlos that’s exactly what most haters refuse to understand. Anette is a phenomenal singer, but having her sing the songs that were written for Tarja’s voice wasn’t working. But she’s really good when you let her sing in her own style. Something you can see and hear in The Islander and Amaranth. I mean, I hear Floor’s version, and as much as I love Floor, it’s just not the same. In my opinion, if Anette would have been allowed to show her true talent, both her and Floor would still be singing in Nightwish. Imagine that. Then again, I’m also glad that she didn’t just give up, and did her own thing. It’s working and she’s amazing as ever!

I think she wasn't as comfortable with Nightwish as she is now. Now she seems confident and able to explore her ability.

Probably due to not even getting to write her own stuff when she was in Nightwish and was held to such a high standard. Now she has been free to do her own thing with amazing band members who have synergy together. It's amazing what a good working enviroment can do for a person.

I love Anette Olsen. she is the most carismatic front woman in nightwish. i

I'm a simple man... Seeing Anette: click! Seeing Jani: click! Seeing The Dark Element featuring both: totally destroying that link because I can't wait for the video to start! 😅😂 Great stuff

Very catchy song, it has a great hook. It's also nice to hear Anette doing her thing. She looks like she's got herself into great shape. Looks as lovely as she sounds.

Eagerly awaiting a new album

The lyrics of this song: Pretty much the most complete guide to a fulfilled life.

First time i heard this song in my car too work i cried. It was so good. Thank you for the music . I love you The Dark Element

Its incredible how Jani never disappoints!! Everything he touches become gold.. very underrated guitarist and composer!!

thanks from France for the sensations. the northern Gods and Godesses are still alive.

When I first heard this song and knew nothing about it, I thought it was a Nightwish song (knowing little about Nightwish too!). And I thought (correctly) that that voice sounded like Anette's. I love her voice. It's got that certain texture to it that I just can't describe.

Don't care what all the haters say Annette was amazing in nightwish and still just as amazing I love all three singers and currently floor is incredible especially love

"I wanna live the stories I write See the whole world with my own eyes Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings I wanna feel the flame when it burns Wanna feel the pain when it hurts Take the unknown trail And hear the songs the night sings And now that I've seen just a little, not a lot But I know who I am and who I am not"

Half a million views in one month? It's clear we love this band! We should all do our part to introduce our friends to Dark Element and help them succeed!

This band actually eclipsed Nightwish numbers when it first debuted and people backstage will tell ya, Halopainen went freakin berserk. It was so bad he actually left NW and took a keyboardist job for another band but their singer sounded like Anette so God was sending him a message I guess, but talk about poetic justice AND cruel irony. The Dark Element is both critically acclaimed and have had very solid sales numbers above Nightwish. Nightwish money comes from concerts not from cd's or lp's. At some point this band may be doing global tours too......it the ghost of Anette Olzon and its going to haunt the ever living hell out of those anti fem guys in Kitee Finland. Just sayin.....

I hope the Dark Element will have great success because I think Anette did not get and still doesn't get proper recognition, Nightwish fans only talk about Tarja and Floor, like she never existed. Now she's giving them the middle finger, good for you Anette

After listening to Nightwish's Voice I can only say this is hell of a hit!!! Much better tune!!

Probably because this is better than anything Nightwish put out with her. She was treated like everyone else in the band by Tuomas, a hired gun who sung what he threw at them.

I agree about them bein mean but my way of understanding is Nightwish with Tarja was all they knew. Then to have Anette singing Tarja songs... we know Anette is good with HER voice but the songs that were suited for Tarja (most anyway) didnt sound so great with Anette and she was the least consistent Live singer compared to Tarja and Floor. I think its rude how they treated her but i also kind of get why they felt that way. But here she is in her own group with a man who knows how to write songs best suited for Anette to sing. No reason to compare her here cause there was no previous singer. I love The Dark Element and even if it sounds Nightwishy ... i love it cause i miss Anette in Nightwish and now shes in this band.

That's not because of Anette, but because of Thuomas. The song's wheren't all perfect imo. I like Storytime from Imginarium and Dark Passion Play from DPP. But the rest of the songs are a little bit common, if you know what i mean. Look how good she is right now.

Jani,you're the best writter and composer man.Thanks for this great song

Her era of Nightwish was outstanding and she has only continued to kill it with The Dark Element. I am so glad we have this record. It is stellar and so much better than the latest NW effort.

Dear Anette, heard you live 10 years ago with nightwish, you were so great. I would love to have the chance to hear you live again
