8 MORE facts about me

Journal Entry: Mon Jul 6, 2009, 1:38 PM


I got taggged by :iconxxxblackjokerxxx:
Well, this is my 3rd time. Sorry if I repeat anything.

FACTS
1) I believe my introduction to the gothic subculture was when I was age 12, and from then on, I found my niche there.
2) My brother, before he cut his hair, is the SPITTING IMAGE of Jojo from the movie Horton Hears a Who!. Yes, that's who my current poll is about.
3) The song that sucked me into the metal music scene is Nemo, by Nightwish. And yes, that's my first Nightwish song, and I instantly fell in love with them and the European gothic/symphonic/whatever metal scene.
4) People constantly mistake me for a college-age student...I hope it's not because I look OLD :O
5) One time for a disguise (don't ask why), I wore a fuzzy neon green sweater and a CAL baseball cap and put my hair in giant pigtails. Yes, my friends were so shocked to see me because it's nothing like how I usually dress.
6) Working on my 3rd novel...I think I might be halfway through...and I resolve to finish writing it in my notebook this summer!
7) Don't throw tomatoes (or whatever) at me, but I seriously prefer Tarja Turunen over Anette Olzon as the vocalist for Nightwish. Yes, I know, Tarja and the rest of the band had differing interests and they had to kick her out, but they were really harsh with kicking her out of the band! Tarja's vocals are more my cup of tea than Anette's, just because Tarja is so classical and beautiful, and Anette, well, I think she sounds ordinary. Sorry, but that's me, and I know I'm not the only one who thinks so.
8) I saw Ice Age 3 on 4th of July with friends, and one think that cracked me up was they fact that there were SO many adult references in that film. :rofl: Yeah, kids won't understand it, but I'm guessing Blue Sky Studios stuck them in to amuse the parents who have to watch it with their kids. :XD:

THE END

I agree whole heartedly about Tarja. She has a way more powerful voice that can hit those high and low notes. I don't know if you've had a chance to hear her solo album, My Winter Storm. IT's a great ablum. Also, Nightwishes latest ablum with that new girl, doesn't sound as good. My favorites Nightwish ablum is Once.

I have heard some of Tarja's songs from her solo album, and I really should get my own copy. :) Though she sounds beautiful, and the music darker than Nightwish's DPP (I think Anette is to blame for making it sound really pop-infused, sorry Anette fans! ^^;), I really think her voice is best when paired with Tuomas's compositions. Even though things did not go so prettily between Tarja and Tuomas themselves (it seems rather obvious Tuomas was in love with Tarja and got heartbroken), I felt that her voice and his music was like the perfect marriage, and now it's a nasty divorce. :(

Nicely put, it does seem like a divorce, doesn't. Also, you're right about the new singer. I do; however, enjoy the latest album by NIghtwish, it's just... not the same. They should have started a new band and call themselves something else. With the new singer, they should try to carry on witht the old name. I'd feel kinda insulted, Hey, you, you're the second option for a singer, join our group and step into the shadow of our former singer. If they came out with a new album under a new name, I think the band would work out. But calling themselves Nightwish? Not going to happen. They don't sound the same. It worked for AC/DC, but not everyone has the same luck; look at Drowning Pool, where are they now?

It's not the band's name I want to change, because if they changed the name Nightwish to something else, they'd really be dead. I try to see them as experimenting, but I can't get used to Anette's voice. I'm sorry, Anette is better off producing a solo pop-rock album than she is trying to sing metal. :( I prefer them to change the singer.

I mean, change the singer, the whole band changes. You might as well chnage the name of the band. they don;t really sound like Nightwish. Thay have a few greats songs; but as Nightwish songs? Nope, sorry. There new album is something to pick up, the guy picks up a lot more songs.

I believe that the falling out wasn't that bad because the guy, I forgot his name, helps Tarja in a song or two on he album.

I think it was him... some of her songs have a strong Nightwish feel to them and I think he sings in one of them... maybe two... don't quote me on that.
