NIGHTWISH singer Anette Olzon was interviewed on the Swedish national radio (Sveriges Radio) P3 prior to her performance with Swedish hard rockers MUSTASCH at last night's (January 19) "P3 Guld" (Swedish radio's annual music awards) live awards ceremony broadcast from the Scandinavium Arena in Gothenburg, Sweden. The chat is now available for streaming below (with English-language subtitles).
Olzon and MUSTASCH performed a medley of five songs which were nominated in the "Song Of The Year" category during the "P3 Guld" broadcast. Video of the performance can be viewed below.
Anette Olzon recently spent time in Stockholm, Sweden creating songs for her upcoming solo album with Swedish producers Stefan Örn and Johan Glössner.
Olzon's forthcoming solo album will be co-produced by Swedish producer/songwriter Anders Bagge, who has previously worked with MADONNA, CELINE DION, JANET JACKSON and JESSICA SIMPSON, among others. He is also one of judges on the Swedish TV talent competition "Idol" and a producer of the TV series "Made in Sweden".
Olzon performed on August 13, 2009 with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra at a special concert in Stockholm, Sweden as part of the Stockholms Kulturfestival (Stockholm's Culture Festival).

Well, this is good.
First we comment on something and THEN you post it as a news, Tero.

LOOOL this video is so much better, you can see Anette in all her beauty and majesty...
I also love the head of Agnes when Anette starts to sing her song like "ooohhhh myyy fucking goddddddd", poor Agnes.
So I have to say that I don't understand why Anette sings so badly here. Normally her voice is nice in pop or pop rock music, I mean, her voice fits to this kind of music. I, for exemple like her voice in october and april. In live it sucks really. Why she feels she has to scream the songs everytime she opens her mouth ?

Do you not realize, that the stuff you hear on radio and records is edited. She simply can't sing like she does on pre-recorded and edited songs.

Anette sings bad, eh ? Ok, she fails on the high parts, but at least she's not tone deaf. What about the guy !?
He can't pull off two straight notes, in a row. He was off pitch CONSTANTLY. O_o
And don't get me started, on his ridiculous "Kiss" inspired make-up, and tatoos, like those crackers from LP. XD

@ Devy:

Because when teachers told her to sing she just shook her head and "did her own thing" ;)
@ DeadAndGone:
"What about the guy !?"
Oh yeah... He sounds worse than her...

Is this still the Nightwish news section or did I miss something?... It looks like Anette has successfully exploited the band's media silence to her advantage. Before anyone jumps up and says "The media silence applies only to Nightwish, not their side projects", why are we not reading about Tarot or Brother Firetribe or anything else that the boys have been up to? Heck, I'd be interested in hearing some news on that. They're keeping out of the spotlight, though, it seems, while Anette is basking in it.

Come to forum, Tainted. I have something for you.

@Tainted,
I guess it's because, sadly, there are no new Tarot or For My Pain, etc. stuff. (which is really bad, I adore Tarot and yearn for new material)
Maybe this will inspire the guys to start doing more side projects' stuff, if only to take the spotlight from Anette?
Please, Marco, just make another Tarot album and make me happy again! x)
I don't know much about singing technique so I can't judge properly, but as a plain listener I don't think they sounded that bad... maybe during the last part of the song, and that the music overpowered them a lot, but I don't think it was painful to hear either. They could and should have done better though, I believe.
Blackwood wrote on 21.01.2010 at 18:13
So like... when am I going to see NIGHTWISH in the headline of a story and actually have it have anything to do with NIGHTWISH? No one cares about Anettes seperate projects, shes not even Finnish. No one cares about her in general. I mean, I know that no one here likes Nightwish either, but at least it would be relevant.
I know they're on a break, so were not going to hear much from them either way --- but it doesn't mean the Anette stories do anyone any good. Clearly, they only anger if anything lol.

This is for you both: Tarot is making a new album. It's called Gravity Of Light and will be released in spring 2010. Here is the link to their official site where it stands on:
http://www.wingsofdarkness.net/php/index.php
But for some reason MFF was just too bussy with only posting Princess news and just ignored the Tarot news, since Princess is not a part of Tarot (and hopefully she never will...)
Or at least that's the only reason I can think of, considering I, together with some others, sended this in December 2009 via the Got News Link and it also appeared on almost any other metal website. Including Blabbermouth, where MFF get's most news. But it never was put down here as news. And since Tarot is a Finnish metal band, the only reason I can think of for not posting here, is that it involves a different Nightwish member then Princess, and for that it isn;t intresting.
Same is for Brother Firetribe. On Blabbermouth and other metalwebsite's there is every know and then news from them. But also that isn't featured here. Only the BF news which included Princess is posted.
So if you are looking for sideprojects from other Nightwish members, just look at blabbermouth.net, their own websites or any other metalnews site. Since it will not be featured here when it doesn't involves Princess.
[Just for the record, I love MFF and I spend way to much time here. But that mentallity just doesn;t makes sense..]
Sorcha wrote on 22.01.2010 at 00:37
@ Blackwood:
I'm sure the boys have started working on other projects by now. I don't think they've been sitting around for the last few months twiddling their thumbs. They're just not publicizing their every step. Tuomas mentioned in an interview that Marco will be working on Tarot's new album during the break so hopefully we'll hear some news on that front soon :)
@ Denise:
"I know that no one here likes Nightwish either, but at least it would be relevant."
And how exactly do you know this?... There are quite a few people here who still like Nightwish, myself included. If I didn't like the band, minus Anette, I would not be here in the first place. And the "Anette stories" don't so much anger as they mildly annoy when it becomes a full string of them. In mermaid's case, actually, I think they just amuse.

IMHO Anette/Princess/whatever has used NW as a launching pad for her solo-career.
She had only heard of the band 2 months before Tarja was fired, and even then, only listened to Once and End Of An Era. Why in the hell did they hire her?
Maybe it was pressure from the record companies, because I'm not so certain that it was for her musical ablity. She sounds so 'nice' (depending on what your opinion on her weird singing is) on Dark Passion Play is because of Pro-Tools, I'm fairly certain of that fact.
Like Legeon pointed out in another thread, she told her teacher that 'i'm going to sing my way'... you can clearly hear what 'her way' has gotten her. Her voice is terrible.
Wouldn't be surprised if she has polyps on her vocal-chords from not properly warming up and singing the way her throat is meant to.
I understand, she's not Tarja, but still, when you are even considering auditioning for a band of the caliber of Nightwish, you get some goddamned lessons, because otherwise, you'll breakdown on tour, and crack when you try to sing high-notes... which *shock* that's what's happened with Anette.
That's speaking from a bit of a trained perspective(4 months of lessons)
Now on her personally... I think she's an arrogant, self-absorbed materialistic biyatch.

Life is, like I said, full of road blocks and new turns and we never know what will happen...its interesting to live life;=)

@Sorcha
Friggin hell, Sorcha, you earn the award for greatest post ever!
Personal thoughts about Princess aside, this is a Swedish singer doing a pop album. This ain't Pop From Sweden, this is METAL FROM F@#$ING FINLAND!!! When NW ended the DPP tour I thought, "Great, now maybe we can all stop fighting and talk about the side projects we all enjoy." No such luck apparently.
I don't know if this is because the staff is forgetting to post Tarot and BF news or if it's because people that come here like to see trainwrecks, but I think MFF is doing a great disservice with all the Olzon news. What's more pertinent to this site:
News about an album from some of the founders of Finnish metal
or
News about the pop solo album of a singer that is only being posted here because she released one album with the most popular band in the country?
MFF Staff: Rest assured that we are doing the best we can providing news from as many bands as possible. Last weeks have been a bit more difficult than before cause I personally took a long overdue vacation and therefore MFF newsflow probably wasn't as rich as it used to be. And you really can't say that we are just posting about Olzon and NW. But I promise that we will focus more on finding news also from other bands.

Oh, sure there are people who care about her and her projects.
@Lyssa
"IMHO Anette/Princess/whatever has used NW as a launching pad for her solo-career."
Just like Tarja did. It doesn't metter it took 9 years from her to start her solo career, she used Nightwish anyway. :)
"Why in the hell did they hire her?"
The boys had their reasons. They were looking for a singer they like and a person they can work with. It's as simple as that.
If I know the people of this site, someone is going to say: "Yeah, sure they can work with her. They have had big fights during DPP tour. Does that mean they get along well?"
Oh please. It would be a miracle if they didn't have fights when they travel together for weeks. It's like marriage, and Tuomas has described Nightwish as "mobile marriage of 15 people". ;)

I'm looking forward to hear what that "path" is Anette has chosen. ^^

Zed,
we discussed these "road blocks" here already... And not, that it matters, but I was the first one to come with it.
We agreed with Tero that time, that this does not mean that Princess is leaving NW,
which is GOOD.
So. Nothing new happened in fact.
mermaid wrote on 22.01.2010 at 09:54
Well, guys, you are a bit harsh to Tero now.
First, no other NW member does promote his side projects properly. On the other hand Princess DID promote her "secret gig" - she did mention that on her blog and I think also in some interview.
I remember you, guys, saying somewhere here that she is going to be AWARDED there, LOL.
I remember that I asked "for what? she has no own songs!"
So, expectation were HIGH.
Princess herself promoted that a LOT. "I can not wait to show myself to Swedish people"
It is not Tero´s fault that SECRET GIG was in the end 5 minutes of introduction tune sang pretty badly, is it?
She simply promoted that as the most important thing of the year 2010 - you can not expect press NOT to be there, could you?
It is not press´fault that in the end they are informing about 5 minutes of quacking...
If any member of NW will promote every 5 minutes of their playing somewhere as much as Princess did, press will be talking about NW only.

Off course. Mainly comparing to living a death. That is much less interesting. Would you believe that?
Scientists came up with that something like one month ago, only, so Princess obviously keeps truck with new Nobel prize winners.

@Minea
Is that all that you got from my post?
You can be in a band without fighting, maybe it's just me and my American point-of-view, but they can work out whatever differences they have if they were to actually TALK, but, of course, they don't, at least if the interviews, Once Upon A Nightwish, and End Of Innocence is any indicator of how things work within Nightwish.
IMO, they would all be happier if they got rid of the diva. She is WORSE than Tarja, and I'm actually slightly shocked that noone bothered, or noticed that Princess didn't even mention the May 2009 US tour in her 'Bye 2009' blog post send off, and, when a commentor pointed the glaring ommision out... she blew the person off without repliying.

I couldn't care less about what anyone writes in his/her blog (after reading Anette's a couple of times, I got bored & I already know what you will all say - stop reading it - I did) but something is bothering me; about promotion, as someone mentioned, Anette has her own management, right?
Isn't there supposed to be someone with the proper knowledge to help her & promote her solo work & 'public appearances?' Take care of her public image, which she is clearly ruining? Nobody cares?
And they get paid for what? Letting her promote, if that's the case, herself so poorly?
And if her solo album, as she mentions in the interview is for fun, I can't beging to image what will happen if she takes it seriously!

"Just like Tarja did. It doesn't metter it took 9 years from her to start her solo career, she used Nightwish anyway. :)"
No honey,there are HUGE differences.
First,Tarja didn't join Nightwish just to start and promote her solo career.When she joined them,they were unknown,they were rejected by record labels,and they said that it would be only for one or two records,not for live shows or anything that serious.
This is what Tuomas said to Tarja when he asked her to join.
And before saying that i wasn't there so all these must be lies,these are what Tuomas said himself.
But,on the other hand,Anette joined a world famous band just to be able to start her solo career.
And you know what?She admitted that herself.Or else,why would a pop lover join a metal band,if not for fame and money?
But i highly doubt that Tarja joined a completely unknown band for the same reasons.
Second,Tarja was in Nightwish 9 years.Since the beginning.She tried really hard,she toured for ages and ages,she worked hard to make,along with the other members,Nightwish as it is today.
Anette,on the other hand,did nothing.She made no effort at all,she became famous just by joining them.

Agreed.
@ nemesis:
"Isn't there supposed to be someone with the proper knowledge to help her & promote her solo work & 'public appearances?' Take care of her public image, which she is clearly ruining? Nobody cares?"
Sometimes I really wonder if some of her "deep" posts aren't her manager's suggestions to try and keep fans on her side. You're forgetting something, though. Anette hates it when someone tries to criticize her, "control" her "like a puppet", and tell her what to do. Her manager must have so much fun with her these days just standing back and letting Anette do her own thing.

Okay, really, listen to the first Nightwish albums, listen to "Beauty and the Beast", "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean ", "The Riddler", "Wanderlust" or "End of All Hope". Now listen to songs like "Amaranth" or "Eva". Do you notice the abysmal difference? Can you see their principles melting away?
They don't make music from their heart any more. They make it for the mases.
And it i$ worth it
Tess wrote on 22.01.2010 at 20:17
Tess,
so are you trying to say that they all have lied in the interviews? Tuomas, Marco even Jukka who was the last one who said they make music with feeling?
But, you can believe what you want and I can believe what I want. The truth is that we don't know that for sure. Sure you can hear those major differences and interpret them as greed if you want. Feel free to do so. I interpret them a improvement. Is that totally wrong? Should it be illegal? ;D
And no, I'm not blind or deaf. I just have opinions.

How can you call it "improvement" if Jukka himself stated once he can't play Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean anymore because "it's too difficult"? Shouldn't musicians get better over the years instead of worse?

@Joda
Yes, I would believe they lie. Of course they still can canalize some sort of feeling out of their executions. Commercial or not, it's their creation after all.
You interpret them as improvement... I see. I guess that settles this. Our musical tastes are simply different, please don't take it as an insult; The kind of music you probably enjoy are pretty far from what I'd call real music with quality and honesty.
No, it's not wrong, no it's not illegal, of course you're not deaf, I'd never suggest such a thing ;). We are all entitled to have our own opinions. So, enjoy NNW's music :)
Tess wrote on 22.01.2010 at 22:19

Yes,i believe too that they have all lied.
How can they make music from the heart if this music is actually their most commercial piece of art ever?
How can they make music from the heart if they only play for the money?
And how can they be improving since they play these songs worse than ever?Tuomas can't even play the solo beginning of Ever Dream correctly.Emppu also can't play correctly even a small solo in Sahara.
Also how can they be improving since Marco forgets his own lyrics?
And before saying that he was drunk,i must say that he has always been drinking,but he never forgot a whole song.Not until now.

"Yes,i believe too that they have all lied."
Since when you have believed this? Let me guess: it happened between years 2005-2009?
"How can they make music from the heart if this music is actually their most commercial piece of art ever?"
In my opinion, the best way to make music is to make the songs sound like you want. When you are satisfied with results, it doesn't matter if fans don't like it. As long as you like what you have done, everything is fine.
"How can they make music from the heart if they only play for the money?"
I don't believe they play only for money. They play for fun, they love their job, they love the fans' reactions etc. The world is not black and white. Of course they get their living from being in Nightwish but in my opinion it would be tiring to be in the band just for money, without fun and visiting places they have never seen before, for example.
"And how can they be improving since they play these songs worse than ever?Tuomas can't even play the solo beginning of Ever Dream correctly.Emppu also can't play correctly even a small solo in Sahara."
I think it was Tuomas who said in an interview that none of the band members is superplayer but when they play together they do magics. And I agree with him.
The improvment I meant was not an impovement as musicians but an improvement musically.
"Also how can they be improving since Marco forgets his own lyrics?
And before saying that he was drunk,i must say that he has always been drinking,but he never forgot a whole song.Not until now."
Live situtations, y'know. There's no band who never does mistakes while playing live. There's no singer who never forgets lyrics. Some singers can handle the situation well and others get confused or just mumble.
And Marco remembered the lyrics when he tried the song again, wit some help from Anette and the crowd. :)
Oh, and the lyrics were written by Tuomas, not Marco.

"Since when you have believed this? Let me guess: it happened between years 2005-2009? "
it actually happened in year 2008.When i saw them live,again.And i noticed that there was a huge difference between this performance and the one back in 2005.Not only in quality but also in how they seemed as a band...Not tight at all.
I also happened to read Marcelo's side of story,at the time.And i also met Tarja at the time.
Therefore,after seeing both sides(i also saw Tuomas backstage) i was able to understand who's the diva and who's not.
"In my opinion, the best way to make music is to make the songs sound like you want."
No,music from the heart is...well,music from the heart.It's not music from the heart if it's done in commercial direction just to attract more fans.
"They play for fun, they love their job, they love the fans' reactions etc."
Hahahha.nice one.
Like when they said that they would cancel their appearance because they hadn't been paid on time(for the record,NO ONE was paid on time at that point,including me,because of bank employees' strike).
They were also disappointed from the production of the festival but they did nothing to hide it from us,and they gave a hideous show.If they also cared for the fans,they could give at least a decent show for us.
"but when they play together they do magics."
When i judge their playing,i do it when they play all together.And since all of them have lowered their level of playing(except Jukka),the outcome is not what it supposed to be.
And you don't have to be a superhero in order to play your songs at least decently.Other bands do that for decades,and actually being older that Nigthwish.
"There's no band who never does mistakes while playing live. "
Of course not.But THIS banded started doing mistakes more permanently only recently.
"Oh, and the lyrics were written by Tuomas, not Marco."
When i say "his lyrics",i meant the lyrics he was to sing.You can't be that stupid.
If Anette forgets lyrics,people say "she forgot her lyrics",they don't say "she forgot Tuomas' lyrics".

That's right! :) You are right, it's a great book, I would say it's a masterpiece.
About Minea, yeah, I borrowed her name. Though I hope I won't face the same fate she did in the book. :P
I read that Wikipedia link you put and this impressed me:
"Although Waltari employed some poetic license in combining the biographies of Sinuhe and Akhenaten, he was otherwise much concerned about the historical accuracy of his detailed description of ancient Egyptian life and carried out considerable research into the subject. The result has been praised not only by readers but also by egyptologists."
Minea wrote on 23.01.2010 at 19:27
I'll have to agree with those here who say NW's music has become commercial and aimed towards mainstream audiences. And I don't just mean it with DPP. Nemo was a huge commercial success, and it was designed to be that. There's little "metal" you will find in that song, but I think Tarja's voice made it a bit less popish than, let's say, amaranth, which does have all the elements for it to be as mainstream as it got.
Once was mainstream, DPP is mainstream. don't kid yourselves.

I love sheets....!
I have always been so fascinated by those nice sheets they have in the hotel beds and ever since I started touring with NW I have been more and more in love with soft sheets. I usually buy the ones from GANT cause they are so soft and keep their shape forever. But now I have found a really cheap alternative at H&M Home. When I was in Stockholm a week ago I went there and bought this super romantic sheet."

Yoda,
one day you should read the book - and you would know that they decided to fire Tarja in February
and they were very proud they kept it secret till October,
though, they had to play - how many? 49? gigs with her.
In all those interviews they were giving, did they say the truth? Did they say they are about to fire Tarja? No, they did not.
They did talk about common future.
So, why do you think they will not lie anymore?
Why do you think that those 9 months were the only period in their lifes when they did lie?
So, yes, Yoda, they all did lie in their interviews and they are prud about it. Read the book.

True.

On another note, I just scanned through her blog briefly again and she seems to have started mentioning Nightwish a fair amount. Wonder what gives... Maybe someone informed her that she's a part of this band after all.

But she didn't necessarily mean that she would like to sing it with them :P
History has show that,when Anette is talking about singing NW songs that hasn't been sung before,by her or Tarja,usually a solo performance with some kind of orchestra follows...
Remember?
But i would in NO way like to hear 10th Man Down,the last NW song that i still and will always love,sung by Anette.
Besides,it would not by comfortable for her to sing it.The lyrics are "Cut me free-bleed with me" and the have a sharp ending,she wouldn't be able to sing "cut me freeeyeyaaaa..."
But can you imagine it?
"This ain't my figyayayyayyayayya..."
With her famous dancing of course,wearing her favorite Christian Louboutin leopard pumps...Dear Lord!
Legeon wrote on 25.01.2010 at 20:39

Yeah, EXACTLY like Tarja. The talentless bitch wasn't invited by Tuomas, she forced him to write songs for her because she knew his project would go on to be a world-famous band. After all, she'd planned her career as a rock/classical crossover soprano all along.
*bangs head against wall*
I've already made fun of this kind of historical revisionism elsewhere ...
But now that I see it seriously in action, I've finally lost my faith. Intelligent life among NW fans simply does not exist anymore.

@ mermaid:

She put down two Nightwish songs that she has never sung. Obviously they were sung previously (and at the moment only) by Tarja. I'm not sure what you're implying here...
@ Minea:
"All the clothes she has worn on stage. As she said, she doesn't want to throw them away."
Hm... Yes, and off stage while posing for her blog. So she's a pack rat, then. Chances are that she's never going to wear them again.
@ Legeon:
I actually wasn't talking about just that post. I was talking about the few posts where she's mentioned Marco and a couple more besides those recently where she has mentioned Nightwish while talking about something or other.
There was her birthday message to Marco. Then:
"Today it's time for one of my all-time favourite songs. Its with Marco dearest and his band Tarot. The song is amazing. Here's Tide, enjoy!"
"I bought it quite a while ago after Marco said it was really good, but had forgotten about it."
"... ever since I started touring with NW I have been more and more in love with soft sheets."
"I know some of you have asked me before what NW songs I havent sung yet that I would like to sing, so here they are;=)"
Silly topics that she talks about aside, I just don't think I've ever seen her mentioning Nightwish this frequently before unless they had a concert and she wanted to share her outfit with the whole world.
I do desperately hope she won't try to sing either of those songs, however. I absolutely love both of them. Can't she leave us at least something to enjoy still without having to interpret it in her own way?
Tainted~ wrote on 26.01.2010 at 01:29
Isabala Marcos admited that she had 3.000 shoes and we know how that ended, do not we?
Now, Princess admited she has so much clothes that she needs an an outside storage place for rent for her clothes, because she has so many.
No other singer, actor, . well nobody have ever admited THAT.
Not to mention that her clothes... how to put it.. are not VERY beautiful. Is she collecting them to put them into auction, when she would be enough FAMOUS in Sweden?
Tarja after all did... and we all remember how it ended up when Princess tried to sell her car through internet. :-))
Now - another thing what attracted me was the Tarja songs on her blog. THAT is interesting because I remember how Princess wanted NOT to take sides (Tarja or NW) when she joined NW. I remember interviews when she was asked abotu Tarja .. and she wanted to say as little as possible.
Only this year, after she hired her own manager, we read title saying "now I understand why Tarja did that".
All Princess understanding Tarja is dated 2009, NOT 2008, NOT 2007.
In year 2010 Princess even started to give Tarja? singing a space on her own blog.
Now. We had road blogs saying: I DID DECISION.
Then we were told that: Well, my decision was answered with positive feedback, now there is another decision to be made..
and out of sudden we can watch Tarja singing 10th man down on Princess blog.
Is it just me, or does Princess identify herself with Tarja? Suddenly?
I really hope she is not going to leave NW. Though, I see no other explanation.
mermaid wrote on 26.01.2010 at 09:47
And yes, she started to mention NW.
In November and December she did not mention them ONCE, but now, out of the sudden, she mentions NW.
She does talk ABOUT them, but not TO them.
No happy birthday to Maestro. In August she smsed to him to tell him "how great he was" and he was so happy to sms her back. But birthday is obviously not worth to be mentioned.
But "since I joined NW, I like bed sheets"
BTW: that sentence KILLED me. I love my bedsheets, too, and I did not need to join NW for that...

I am always impressed how Princess fans do ignore what she says and dream some better version of Anette instead.
Princess said in her blog, that she is going to Thailand and her son will be in his father´s house.
And her clowns in their replays said, that she was right to spend Christmass with her family, because family is the most important thing!
:-))
And first Isabell (I think) came with the made up version that boy was in France .. and not just Isabell - check SW, even CanuckFan, who is 35 yeras old, said that boy was spending Christmass in some different part of Europe with his father.
And that made me think. What if Isabell, Canuck and others are right and boy WAS in France?
Now, imagine that Princess said he was in his father´s house... what kind of mother does not even know WHERE is her only child on Christmass Eve??
So, either are Princess´ fans really living out of reality..
or Princess is. After all, how do we know that she knows what she is talking about?

-sigh- Let me see if I can explain this without throwing insults right back where they came (a tough feat, I can assure you, as I am a bit aggravated at the moment)...
I can compare Anette to Avril Lavigne and say that Avril is better. I can compare Anette to Miley Cyrus (Who I don't even like) and say that Miley is better. Attitude wise and vocal wise. Yes, Tarja's fans like her versions of songs better but it in no way means that we are comparing Anette to Tarja and Tarja alone. Why is it that if I say that I think Tarja's voice is better that all of a sudden I'm making a stupid comparison, but when one of Anette's fans claims that Anette's voice is so much more emotional and powerful, it's all good and well to compare? Oh, right, because she *deserves* our sympathy here due to her ongoing illnesses, heroic acts of getting on stage to belt, and the agonizing issue of not having enough space for all of her clothes at home.
Double standards are annoying and just as dumb as you seem to think the "morons" are.

Some comments on Anette's blog(about a video called "New Nightwish Presents:Wish I Had An Angel Raped And Killed"-which is actually,Wish i Had An Angel raped and killed)
"all those people who do this to Anette are not worth to hear one single tone sung be her"
Well,exactly.We are not.We haven't done anything to deserve that.
"They are just jealous."
Of course.Because,when someone says that he/she doesn't like a singer,the way she sings or the way she acts is jealousy,and it actually shows that he/she wants to be like her!
No sings of intelligence so far...
"ask Mr Cowards -Tarja's White Knight- on youtube and you'll see what i mean - geez, what an asshole!"
The funny things is,that if this comments was addressed to Anette or any of HER fans she would 1)delete it and 2)post it as her comment and showing to the rest of her followers how many bad people are out there.
But since it's not against her or her fans,she had no problem posting it.No,no hypocrisy at all.
"Why don't these people go up on stage and try doing half of what Nettie do?"
Oh,we can't.We don't have the capacity of ruining an easy song AND dance so energeticall(lol) at the same time.
"I can't understand why ppl are doing all of this stupid stuff..."
Actually people did nothing.SHE was the one singing,and a person posted it.
"This kind of people have a closed mind"
But not closed ears.Unfortunately.
"If they don't like you it's their loss."
Umm...what?
I don't like Bob Marley either,it's my loss?
"They find no pleasure in their lives so they want to hurt other people to feel better.. "
Obviously,not liking a singer and actually daring to say it makes you a sadist.
"and that Anette didn't fire Tarja in the first place "
And what exactly has that to do with Anette's singing?Nothing.
"They obviously have no clue about diplomacy or tact??"
Said the person that has also insulted other people with no tact in the same comment.
The most ridiculous thing is that,all of them are soooo touched and annoyed by the fact that someone dared to say that doesn't like Anette,and they say that it's not good to be offensive,but in the same comments they ARE being offensive...

From what i saw,someone probably tried to say to Anette that it's not right of her to allow comments like the ones her followers posted...
And she said this:
"I publish most comments in here and its me who decide what to post. Even if some of you dont like how I decide, I am free to do so since it is my blog with my thoughts. Hard, but the only way for me to have this blog open and going."
So,her opinion of "open and going" is:
1)i don't allow comments against me
2)i allow highly offensive comments against people that don't like me
3)act like i'm the most non-hypocritical,fair,just and honest person around.
But she NEVER told to her followers that AntiAnetteOlzon's(the person that uploaded the video "New Nightwish Presents:Wish I Had An Angel Raped And Killed") channel ALSO belongs to this person that ALSO decides what she will post,with her thoughts.

I think ^this^ was my favorite one :) Does the person mean us, or Anette and her manager?
So here we have a perfect example of "No negative comments against the perfect Anette but all the bashing galore for the haters". Thanks for posting that, Legeon. I would have thought she would learn by now. I don't understand what was so bad about posting that video on youtube... Were they offended with just the title or the fact that Anette really did sound bad in it? Someone should inform them that the person who posted the song was not the one who told Anette to sing the way she did...
And then she went and posted a long lecture on staying positive and not surrounding yourself with negative energy... The fans should take note. They could claim that that video actually sounds amazing in their opinion instead of telling others to try and fill Anette's spot (which is.... quite an interesting thing for a fan to say now that I think about it. Hm...)

NEED to store them in outside storage.
You need a first class TACT and DIPLOMACY to do that, no doubt about that..
I also do not understand why is AntiAnetteOlzon believed to do something nasty or ill -
after all Princess is proud about her singing and dancing and outfits... so she should be more then thankfull to AntiAnetteOlzon for this PR..
seems strange to me that all her fans do not just ADORE those videos...

Let mi put this thing about comparing from another perspective, without being rude.
Let's say, people like cranberry juice. They like its taste, they like its color, they enjoy the way it looks and cranberry juice gives a specific set of nutrients, fulfilling certain nutrimental needs.
Then the menu gets changed and instead they get orange juice. Orange juice is obviously different. It tastes, looks, smells different and it has different vitamins and nutrients than those from cranberry juice.
Of course it's not the same to compare one orange juice to another, than to compare cranberry juice to orange juice, they are just different.
Nonetheless both are juices and people do get to decide which one they like better, even if they are not the same. And it's illogical that other claim that someone is stupid for comparing one to another.
Same goes for Tarja and Anette.
Tess wrote on 28.01.2010 at 21:57
@Tess: I disagree. It's not about being different. First of all, it's about being a good live act. And it's clear if you compare Tarja and Anette live recordings, who is the better live singer.
Imho, it's not a matter of different style. Even if you compare Anette with any singer who also uses belting, she sounds weak. That's the probleme.

I'm not comparing how good or bad they are respect to each other or to other singers.
I'm pointing out that it is perfectly valid for us, as listeners, to compare one to the other, disagreeing with those who think we can't compare a lyrical soprano and a rock soprano.
We can because they are in fact singers, and they perform(ed) the same songs, giving us more than enough room to choose which style we prefer.
Tess wrote on 29.01.2010 at 01:36
We are completely justified to compare ANY singer we want with ANY other singer.Even more when these singers sing the same songs in the same band.
It's funny,that when someone says that he/she prefers Tarja's voice and he/she thinks that Tarja is better,NW fans say that "you can't compare them"...
But they feel free to say "I like Anette's voice better,she sounds more warm blah blah blah".

I could hear just Princess beautiful singing..

It is a jewel as such and I do not remember anybody to compare this with anything, BTW.
I - on the other hand - have a feeling that whenever Princess produced some fabulous dancing and singing and
her FANS did not have any way how to make it up for her
THEY STARTED with this "but-you-should-not -compare-her-to .."stuff
as if we do.
So, to put it straight, Tarja is STILL used by Princess´ fans as an excuse for Princess´ PERFORMANCE.

Well, you could. And I am certain you could manage also the "rock screaming", too. Our cats can.
Though, with those eyelashes ... what would people around you say?

Well, the fact is that you can't please everybody. I am one of many who lives Anette's way to do things. You don't like her and that's just fine. Your way to express it just a little... interesting. If it's allowed to say.

I meant to write "loves", not "lives".

Kati,
you like Princess´way of DOING things? And what exactly? Spending all week home relaxing and waiting for a weekend to relax after such a diificult week?
Or being constantly ill, TIRED and with nightmares? Or talking about outfits and problems to store them?
What is she DOING you like? Sleeping? Eating?

Singing in an unknown band named Nightwish (ever heard of them?), giving her best on stage, wearing nice outfits (yes, I like her style) and making me feel while perfoming songs.
Yaps, that's all. Nothing more, nothing less. ^^
