    Good evening Anette,

    Wow, thank you so much for posting this. I have often wondered what your recorded version of Ever Dream sounded like, given that it was the first song you ever sent to Toumas, and also because I was curious as to how it compared to your live version. Well, I must say I am very impressed and so, so thankful that you gave us all the chance to hear it. I have really enjoyed your two solo songs as well. Your voice sounds so beautiful and rich :). So looking forward to Imaginarium and to your solo album when you have the time and also feel it is the right time to release it. You have so much talent and such an incredibly beautifully, strong, and versatile voice. It’s been so nice to have the opportunity to hear more of it recently :).

    Keeping singing and being a wonderful person!

    Take care,
    Alexandria

    Wow this sounds so amazing! Your voice sounds really powerful. Though I think you sounded even better at Hartwall Areena in 2009 :)

    Also noticed that you replaced "Just once when all I need" with "My love it lies so deep" at the end, was that on purpose?

    Thanks for sharing this!

    Alex: When deciding to send a song to Tuomas in 2005 I didnt know any songs of Nightwish so I bought an album and fell in love with Ever dream immediately;=) didnt know then that it´s Tuomas favourite song but I guess it was a lucky shot for me. Sleep well!

    HOLY SHIT, ANETTE!
    THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL, IT WAS PERFECT, IT WAS AWESOME! NOW I REALLY REALISE HOW BEAUTIFUL YOUR VOICE IS. PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR BEING SO SKEPTIC! I mean, I always liked your voice but it never amazed me as much as now (I guess you had some trouble recording Dark Passion Play, because it wasn't meant for your vocal range). I was at Exit Festival in Serbia in 2008 when you performed, and it was really good. But this... I'm speachless! Imaginarium is going to be perfect!


    Are there any other recorded stuff like this, apart from your own? If there are, please let us enjoy listening tho those tracks :)

    Thanks for posting this, Anette! "Ever Dream" has always been one of my favourite songs, since it was the song that made me fall in love with Nightwish several years ago. I've been having a bit of a rough day today, and hearing your version of my favourite song made my day so much better. So thanks again! :]

    Thank you so much for sharing that song with us. That was a wonderful performance and very powerful. What I can hear on that song is passion, which is very important for Nightwish songs. Congratulations!!

    Since you mentioned that you bought an album, was it "Century Child" or a compilation? And if it was CC, what did you think of it? (as a whole concept)

    Have a nice day and keep rocking :)

    So now we know (we already knew that more or less) that you revamp the vocal lines of the old songs by yourself! You gave new energy to the song alone, which is impressive.
    The quality of the demo, together with your awesome interpretation of the song already proved you were a REAL musician. You even made Marco's parts, so nice =)

    If you have some more demos, please think about sharing them too later :D

    Thank you for answering my question Anette, but I don’t think it was luck, more Destiny. Ever Dream it is a powerful song that captivates you from the first listening. Every time I listen to it I think that is talking about one’s soul strengthens to rise above the past and keep going with hope in its soul. But I also think it is more a metaphor than just a simple song, a cryptic metaphor.

    Anette*
    what can I say? Amazing job and it has been well rewarded;=), the sound is flowing so naturally and like Tuomas said in 2007 during a video interview with face culture: "Anette's voice is not the more distinctive voice in the planet like for example the Cranberries's singer has, but still it felt so natural on the demo, Anette's voice is very versatile (sweet or nasty when it's needed!), powerful, interpretative! And she doesn't have this kind of artificial classical decoration like so many other singers (that sent the demo) do while trying to copy Tarja."

    And we've been extremely happy, after 4+ years of waiting, to listen to your Ever Dream demo. We've always wondered how does it sound like.
    Then some days ago we read from Alyson Avenue's facebook page, a message left by Niclas I think,that soon the song which gave you the spot in NW would have been published on your Myspace: awsome!

    By the way, Niclas is playing very well on this demo, and great job with the recording of the harmonies-Marco's original part;=)

    Is it Niclas that recorded your voice in the studio and then did he mix all instruments? Who is the guitar player? Great playing;=), is it the AA guitarist?

    If things went well,I am pretty sure it was destiny, not luck, and also I sense that Niclas has a big part of merit in the whole story and that it should be in the spotlight, he deserves it:=)
    Hip Hip Horray to him!

    I beg you (haha) to upload more of those demo songs.

    With so big congratulations,
    Poochie/Aoc

    I just forgot to write that I now realize how much your voice has improved since then. Your vocal timbre has become more elegant and of course you've learned so many new things in interpretation.

    Comparing your solo album tunes with your audition for NW/ Dark Passion Play cd, from what I hear your voice at its best when you sing your solo songs, and I am totally honest.

    Actually I was quite surprised when I heard floating and invincible at first, it was like...your voice had found its own perfect dimension.

    That's why I'm now wishing you to get lots of promotion and views for your solo album (and we will do my best to promote it, you know).
    I'm sure you will get lots of visits and listenings now with ever dream (you cunning!;=)

    Hugs and kisses now..................

  77. André Horsefire22 July 2011 at 17:37

    Dear Anettie!! This demo song is fantastic!! Gorgeous!! Your voice so sweet!! :D

    Well, in my opinion your voice currently fits very well in Ever Dream, Nemo, Wish I Had An Angel, The Siren, Romanticide, Ghost Love Score, Dead To The World, Wishmaster, Come Cover Me, Sleeping Sun, Walking In The Air and Dark Chest Of Wonders... ;D

    An album with this ancient songs with your voice would be excellent!!

    Can you talk with Tuomas about you sing The Carpenter song? Together with Marco? Would be epic!!

    Sorry for my english, I'm really busy here and I need to run...

I also was wondering if yould would not release the other musics that you have recordered. If I remember well, the musics was Nemo, Wish I Had an Angel, Higher Than Hope and Kuoleema Tekke Taiteilijan.Please, make another surprise for your fans! Greetings from Brazil! :B

    Åh, tacktacktacktack!! Jag har så längtat efter att höra den! Det var den här sången som verkligen fick mig att börja lyssna ordentligare på Nightwish en gång i tiden. Den betyder så otroligt mycket för mig. =)
    Fantastisk!
    Tack! =)
