Jokes aside, you probably know a lot of Finnish music, so this shouldn't surprise that much:

@ZonkeyBalls I love Nightwish, I have a couple of their concerts on my PC.

Very different for me. This one will stretch me, which is exactly why I asked. Thank you!
ZonkeyBalls · 46-50, M
@Unquestioned Good to know. It's the quality of the lead singers, that baffles mostly. After Tarja quit, Annette came to replace her and now with Floor, with some experience... It's quite a mix. Holopainen makes absolutely great songs as the main composer.

All these songs are going on my playlist for the next week, so I'll play it a few times through. I'll make sure I'm especially focusing on the vocals.

@GirlPulse Well, Nightwish has some of the best drummers in the world, so don't pay all of your attention to the vocals. ;o)

Here is something older, from the time, when Tarja Turunen was still the lead singer:

And here is Floor:

@ZonkeyBalls I must admit I liked Tarja better.
ZonkeyBalls · 46-50, M
@Unquestioned She was the original one. Each one of them have different singing styles. Floor's voice is dark, but I guess the band was looking for a new direction.
Unquestioned · 70-79, M
@ZonkeyBalls I think Tarja had the better voice and Floor was the better performer.
ZonkeyBalls · 46-50, M
@Unquestioned Floor is the current lead singer. Annette Olsen was in the middle.
Unquestioned · 70-79, M
@ZonkeyBalls Yeah I remember her. It was actually a friend of mine on EP that put me onto them about 8 years ago. I had never heard of them before that.
