Now they dead from coke
Nightwish is a semi-popular Finnish band that sounds metal and has a female lead singer named Tarja Turunen. Their big song was Nemo.

Well, had a female lead anyway.

I mentioned these events to a friend of mine, and she (brave soul) went to the forums and told me about all this over AIM. I'm just bringing you the good bits.




The big thread itself starts here. But I have highlights like elitism, threats of suicide, excessive freaking to fuck out in a public forum, backlash, etc.

I am from Romania
I am a huge Nightwish fan
I live for Nightwish
My soul belongs to Nightwish
I have only one thing to say about this Nightwish also means Tarja wether you want to accept it or not it has been this way for 9 years, for 9 years I live for them for 9 years I cry for them and laugh with them I liked their concert in 2004 in Bucharest I cried after the one in 2005 cause I knew i will not see them for at least a year and now this cry.gif so this is what I wanted to say if in a week I am not cantacted by at least one member of the BAND i will jump of the Polivalenta Hall I mean it and I don't give a f**k about life without Nightwish and I don't give a f**k about anyone who comments about my post. I don't want to live in a world without Nightwish the way it is, the way it was... So a week is long enough you will probably hear about me on the news but I think its a sacrfice worth having NW fans don't cry or weep or sigh you still have a path before you, sadly mine will probably end in a week at least i will die happy. Maybe they will contact me or maybe they wont but still this will be my only and last post i will ever make. 1 week and counting. Anyone can contact me at bazilisc@yahoo.com fans welcome after all a week is enough to meet lots of people. 1 week and counting ...
ALL THE SAME TAKE ME AWAY WERE DEAD TO THE WORLD

Guys, I am very, very sad as well, and I was 75% destroyed when I first saw that. I wish everything became like before...But I still hope NW will remain a great band even in a new formula. [link]

Nemokiddies have left the ship. Great!!
Where's the booze? Flowing like mud around here

Tuomas: "Nightwish is a scenery of my soul and I'm not ready to let go because of one person" hahahah yeah, good one pal, that's what I call a real friend !!! [link]

Aaaaaarggggh, this NW commotion is starting to annoy me as much as the endless HP wankery. Lately it's been the pet subject of most tabloids here.

That sucks! Just the same, I don't think I'll be slitting my wrists over it. I like Nightwish. Tarja has such a powerful, distinct voice. Also, she's GORGEOUS. I'd love to see her do a duet with Ville Valo now that she'll apparently have some free time, but I don't follow the gossip enough to know if they are on speaking terms again. A girl can dream, though!

Eh? I'm really not up to date with anything, am I. I like Nightwish. Their music is really great to write. Just right now I'm - Well I'm not exactly writing right now. Just what am I doing on f_w? Back to NaNo writing! I can procrastinate *after* the first day...

The suicide threat is so very Lydia from Beetlejuice. "By the time you read this I will have jumped plummeted to my death." Cheer up, goth kids.

...I'm a fan of their music, meaning I don't pay attention to the actual lives of the band members. Kinda fitting that I'd find out the bad news from F_W.

Oh, and one more thing:

you will probably hear about me on the news

Megalomania much? Much as I hate to sound dismissive of suicide threats, I think there are more important things in the world going on than someone's music-related suicide. Like Alito's nomination.

And slightly OT, but didn't some teenage girl actually kill herself when Take That split up? She got on the news, I remember, so that could be where this dude is getting the idea that his suicide could make the headlines.

I am 75% destroyed

And I know, because I checked my hit points. I'm wounded, but I've got enough ammo that I should be OK. So long as I don't take a direct hit from a rocket launcher and my parents don't divorce or anything, I can pick up a medic pack and get back to 100% in no time.

Hah, I've been waiting for some NW wank ever since I heard about the break-up in the news (seriously, the break-up was big enough news here to be on the freaking main tv-news of the night) and they interviewed some fan who said that he internet forums had gone insane five minutes after the announcement went up on the official site.

Always the same thing.

Nice little band makes nice music (yeah - "Oceanborn" is a bloody good CD), nice little band becomes rather BIG, now-not-so-nice-anymore BIG band members develop diva-behaviour and jealousy to diva, nice BIG band splits...
Nice band will rejoin in some 5-10-15 years to earn a little more $$$$.

Nothing to be upset about. Happens all the time.

When Tarja got married, I jokingly predicted Nightwish was going to end as a murder-suicide. Now, not so funny.

Maybe now I'll get that purely instrumental version of Ghost Love Score I always wanted?
There was an announcement that there will be no more concerts from Nightwish in the year 2003. So, everyone and their dog tried to get tickets for the supposedly last concert.
The reason that was given was that Tarja wanted to concentrate on her studies.
Yeah. Right.
If that was a hint of what had been going on behind the scenes, I can understand that they finally got fed up with each other and split.

The only sad thing is that now we are left with the wannabes and copy-cats, like Within Temptation. *twitch*

Honestly, Tarja and the whole Nightwish band as a whole sound like a bunch of wankers. How much of an attention whore do you have to be to issue an open letter firing somebody? Evanescence managed to separate with their lead guitarist without so much as a few vague whimpers.

As long as the madness doesn't spread to the other happy fun Scandinavian bands I listen to, I'll be happy.

And at least their main singer didn't dick them over like Children of Bodom's frontman did with his band. Fuckin' Bodom.

The real wank is with the open letter thing, I'd say.

People who don't talk with each other for a year do not belong in the same band.

Communication - why not give it a go? No, seriously, I know you guys are Finnish, so am I, but when I'm pissed off with something a friend of mine has done, I *can* and do discuss it with them.

We are involved in an industry where the business side of things is a necessary evil and something to worry about all the time. We are also a band which has always done music from the heart, because of friendship and the music itself. The mental satisfaction should always be more important than money!

Yeah, okay, Mr PS. There's A Book Coming Out...

There are two sides to these things and both are to blame. It takes two to tango and all that.

I was wondering if Nightwish would make it here. Is it bad that when my once-favourite band kicks my once-favourite singer out, the first thing I think of is "wow, think of all the wank this'll cause" and the second "wonder if it'll even make it to fandom_wank?"?

That Romanian person scares me. A lot.

Well, I for one am glad that she's leaving the band. They are my sister's favourites and I've been forced to suffer through her screeching for years.

Though, I really don't see what the big fuss is about. I mean, sure, the fansites might have some sort of backlash (illustrated by the post) but magazine headlines? I even saw this in the news the other day. And no, I'm not Finnish.
