There are days like that, you have a song you like, not necessarily a brand new song, and you keep hearing it inside. I’m not crazy, OK ? :D I just mean that, well, you like it, you like it, you fucking like it, and there’s no reason to try to focus on another song…

That happened to me today, with Dark Chest Of Wonders, by Nightwish.

I thought I could share it with you guys, there are amazing moments, when the female singer becomes unstoppable, in the second minute, and the last minute, haaaa =)

(And if you’d like to see a live version, it’s the first song in their Wacken 2013 concert)

Ironically, if I had a guardian angel, that's probably the face he or she'd be doing most of the time.

Too bad the music store in my country didn't stock their cd… and I don't want to use iTunes… too many bad experiences with that one…

There are alternatives to itunes, you know. I have a Deezer.com membership and I'm so fucken GLAD to have it. Try it out, maybe you'll like it :)

At first I didn't like the idea of not having the songs on my disk, but I realized that when i'm not having internet, that means I'm not even on my computer anyway. And, later on, Deezer added the option to keep your files listenable on disk, without internet, anyway.

They have a fine web interface, with suggestions, and it's, in terms of UI, infinitely superior to Spotify, you have sorting criteria, better searches, better playlist management.

Used to listen to some Nightwish when I was younger (not that I'm old now, but I mean it was some time ago :P), it's been a long time I haven't heard a song from 'em though (I don't really listen to Metal anymore, I'm more on Punk/Psychedlic/Experimental by now ^^). I don't think I'd listen them again, but it's cool to hear one thank to you, Oliver. :)

Speaking of songs running through your head, I can't stop thinking of Nancy Sinatra's "These boots are made for walking" song lately…must be 'cause of this add on french TV for a perfume I won't name. :x
Not that I especially like it, but it really is a catchy song. Well, okay, maybe I like it, actually.

I don't know if you know but the singer of the studio version and the live version are not the same. Since2013 Floor Jansen is the front woman of the band, before that was Anette Olzon and before that Tarja Turunen, which is the voice of the Studio version. :) And you should listen to "Ghost Love Story" from the same album 10mins of pure awesome.

Ah, I didn't know there were so many chances, three, I imagined it was just two. Does the band have problems with the female singers wanting to become their queen and leader in replacement of Holopainen ? O_o

Apparently, the problem is with the band, not the singers. Nightwish said goodbye to Anette when she was sick at the hospital, didn't give her a heads up or something, so…

I really enjoy Operatic Metal (or Fantasy Metal… or whatever).

I've not listened to much Night Wish… but I have multiple Hammerfall, Dragon Force, Angel Dust, and Blind Guardian albums. I'll have to see about getting a couple of Night Wish.

Ah, only knowing DragonForce among these. That's more things to discover later :)
