Well she's no Tarja.

[Phantom Hawk]

I like the new singer better. She has a great voice and not as "opera" as Tarja. You can hear the words a lot more clearly. I'd like to hear the new singer do some of the old material for comparison.

[Fragle]

well....i think that's as close to the old nightwish sound (i.e. tarja) as they could get. the thing is, they need a singer that's more than just a tarja clone without getting too far from their old sound, vocally speaking.
or, in short words, i like it!
now, the song doesn't exactly floor me...maybe it builds up into something interesting, after all that's just a short sample, but well....what i heared was boring.
i'm really curious how she'll perform on the heavier side of things!

Who is this new singer? I like her voice alot

[Sergio]

A like her style, maybe too sweet but very very good! What's her name?

[Norton]

I don't like Nightwish. And I hated Tarja. It's good now,that they have a singer who can speak English.

[Sunbane]

Hmmm...not a fan of the new singer at all, I'm afraid.

Their sound was built around Tarja to begin with, and this girl's voice doesn't have an ounce of the character Tarja's voice had. It's one female singer out of thirteen hundred that sound virtually the same.

This was just...bland.

[NextInLine]

She's more beautiful than Tarja imo I don't have any further opinion about the subject

[AfterForever]

I can't commend on the new vocalist in this short clip.. I would be easier to judge on a more powerfull song. The way she pronounces certain words remind me of Tarja.. Personally I hoped for a vocalist with a completely different style and voice..

Where do all these hot operatic singers come from??? I want one!

That little harmony at like 0:10 was extremely awesome.

[Sukisyn]

a little more info on the new singer ... I will have to hear a few more clips before I can really make a decision.

There are now 3 more samples of the new album online:

She does have a decent voice but there is nothing that really makes it stand out for me. Though, I do like the clips and will probably grab the album when it comes out.

Tarja seemed to work better for Nightwish, her voice/style set them aside.
