Solo songs!


Ok, so the surprise I teased you with is that I have created my own My Space page - Anette Olzon Official -for some songs from my demo I did in 2009. The songs are not mixed or produced, just recorded in the moment and therefore are very rough songs. But I still want you to hear them since I am proud of them and I think they show another part of me than you hear in Nightwish;=)

The first song is called Floating and I call it the "Cirkus"song. It gives me a happy feeling and the vibe in it is happy and joyful.

The second song is a song I wrote for my son and it´s very special to me therefore;=)

Tonight or tomorrow I will add another surprise song in there, will let you know when!

Hope you´ll enjoy the site and my songs!

  3. Wow! I've heard it and I'm thrilled! I like totally ... you have such a beautiful voice. I would also love to sing ... I can do it too, but I'm just too shy. Wish you a nice Sunday!

  4. Eeeeee!

    Invincible is a lovely gift from a mum to her child. Floating is a very pretty, but very peaceful song too! Your voice sounds very sweet on these, well done!

  5. Honestly I thought the material was going to be more rock-ish. However I do like it! It's very light and relaxing. Your voice is shown from a completely different perspective. It seems that in Nightwish you have to do harder songs, everything is just louder and fuller. When I listen to this I can hear the beautiful, soft side of your voice and I must say I really like it! It's very different from what I thought it was going to sound like, but I really appreciate the surprise. Thanks so much for posting!

  6. I've added you on MySpace and my band (Nocturnal Fall) added you too."Floating" is my favorite song and "Invincible" sounds so nice...a mother to son song...Welcome to MySpace, dear Anette! :D

  7. Invincible is so great, I absolutely love it! And (if you need my precious opinion :D) Floating is a bit too rough and needs much more work.
    It's sad that you didn't release your album, but I think everything happens in right time. Therefore sometimes you just have to wait for it :)

  11. Wow! Anette! You can't imagine how it's good to hear to your voice!


    Have a lovely sunday =)

  12. well, to be honest i don´t like both songs. But that´s ok. Noone has to love everything and no one has to be so euphoricly about new things just because it´s by you :)

    I like you more in the rock-genre.
    But of course you´ve got my beneficial and i hope your soloalbum will satisfy you and many fans

    Big hugs to you
    Love

  14. Hi Anette.
    Your songs sound not exactly like I expected them to but they're very nice.
    I like the atmospheric feeling they somehow have and your voice, you know, is just wow.
    I hope we can listen to other demos in the future and of course I hope you will release your solo album one day.
    Thank you for sharing your songs and have a nice Sunday.

  18. Hej Anette!
    Is really strange to hear you sing a genre so different from Nightwish, but I love how sounds your voice in every genre. I just love Invincible. Great job Anette ;) Congrats ;)
    Can we have the lyrics of your songs, please?
    And of course thank you so much for the beautiful surprise :)

    ReplyDelete
  26. I LOVE your songs! I do hope you release an album when you have the time ;) Thank you for sharing this with us! X

    ReplyDelete
  27. Both songs have a kind, calming aura and show the soft, angelic tone of your voice what I really love to listen to. Sorry, I can't explain this better, but this is what I like in 'Eva' as well. And I hope we will get lots of it on Imaginarium. :)

    Thanks for sharing these! I am looking forward to hearing the third one. :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hei Anette :)
    I think, I'm one of those Die-hard Metal fans...But since the beginning I was curious how your solo project, even if it's not metal, would sound. And tadaa. I love it! You're so right, Floating is a circus song :p very very cool. Of course there is much you can improve on Floating but I like it.
    And Invincible is an adorable song. So emotional :) Very well done!
    And now, I really can't wait to hear Imaginarium AND your solo album! Hope you will continue working on it soon.
    With Love, Maren

  29. I think they're wonderful, its interesting to see such a different side to your voice! Some of the music in Floating reminds me a little of a composer I love called Joe Hisaishi and with your voice it sounds gorgeous!

    Best wishes

  32. Anette, "Floating" sounds REALLY beautiful already as it is :) I think with a bit of mixing it would have the potential to be a great success :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. So, that is suprise! And you really suprised me. :) I like songs!
    Floating is happy and playful song! It makes you feel happy. :)
    Invincible is so relaxing. I like that kind of song. I love this song! You did a great job! ;)
    Now, I have Myspace too! :D

  34. Thank you so much for this, Anette. The songs sound very nice, but I really like "Floating" and it brings a huge smile to my face. The songs aren't what I expected, but they are quite enjoyable and very emotional.

    Thank you, and I hope you will be able to release these some day. :)

  35. i love both songs,,, im pumped !!!! im from INDONESIA and i hope you can duet w/ amy lee evanescence someday !!! it'd be awesome,, both of you are my fav singers,,,

    ReplyDelete
  36. Excellent! This is definitely a nice surprise. The songs are "fresh" and they really give out nice vibes. I'm trying to imagine how they would sound if mixed properly and so on, they have a great potential. And I'm saying that as a person who generally doesn't like pop music or so. I also like how your voice sounds, it's a little bit different from Dark Passion Play. This makes me more confident and curious about Imaginarium as well :) Good job!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Much thanks for these songs, Anette!

    They're adorable and very-very nice! And though they're just demos, I think there's a huge potential in them, so yeah, you should be proud of them :)

    pity you couldn't release the album in 2010 and therefore it has been postponed. I hope it will be released during the next NW vacation ;)

    I very much like the late Enya and 90's Madonna vibes in those songs, sound marvelous. It will be great to listen to some more songs of yours <3

    With love,
    Lerren

  38. Wooow!

    Hi dear Anette! I love both songs, but definitly floating is my favorite, Anette let me tell you something: you sing beautiful! and whoever says otherwise is wrong.

    Thanks for your amazing voice!

  39. Both songs are just wonderful and your voice is so beautiful! Can't describe the feeling I got when listening to "Invincible", I nearly cried.

    Wish you all the best and hope you'll release the album someday :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Nettie, they're adorable. I like them even in this demo form ahah! Sweet, keep it on. I admit I'm happy they sound nothing like Nightwish, nor rock, nor anything you've already done.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Nice Songs, Keep Going Anette! I Wanna Hear The Entire Album!

    Hope We Can Become Friends There :)

  42. I know i already wrote a comment today but

    It just goes to show that it is good to have more than 1 genre of singing & more than 1 style, its great! I listen to lots of different genres not just metal or rock, i listen to all sorts, whatever i like :D

    I will go listen to you more now :D

    Anette your voice & vibrato is perfect like shimmering chimes in a summer breeze :D

    Iam going to add you to my myspace where i have 1 song written my self & 2 not so great covers but i tried haha

    cant wait for you 3rd song

  43. Hi,

    Oh, this was wonderful to wake up to! The songs are so lovely! Floating is just so happy with sort of an airy feel that works amazingly well with the softer side of your voice.

    Invincible is one of those songs that can span across so many cultures and circumstances to touch hearts. That is one of the most amazing things about songs to me- though you wrote it for your son, the words and emotions can be applied to so many types of relationships without eclipseing any of the others, and be equally true and vivid for all of them, becoming a beautiful bridge between so many seemingly unrelated circumstances and people. The ability to write a song like that is the most amazing gift of writers, and it really humbles me to hear something like that.

    I can't wait to hear the other songs you've recorded! And if you could post the lyrics, that would be wonderful!

    Have an amazing day,

    Tangela

    Your voice give me goosebumps, I missed so much hear you in something new!

    I cant wait to hear the next *_____*

    ReplyDelete
  55. I'm really impressed! sounds very different to NW and AA. I almost get a bit of a Madonna vibe from "Floating".

    ReplyDelete
  56. Hello Anette!
    Wow.. I'm listening to "Invicible" and I'm almost crying.. So beautiful song!
    "Floating" is also nice.
    This songs are so different from Nightwish ones and at first I thought "What? Is it really Anette?!" ;)
    Can't wait to hear the rest of your songs!

    Many hugs

  58. i listened to "Invincible" and had tears in my eyes ...i think that's the biggest compliment i can give to an artist, to move a person to this extent... wish you could get out an album, or at least a single, would definitely buy it! Big thumbs up, love both songs ^__^

  67. Anette, these songs are amazingly beautiful and so positive! I don't know what style I was expecting for your solo stuff, but this wasn't it - and it's such a wonderful surprise! Kind of like Enya, but I much prefer your clearer style of singing. Your voice just gets better and better and better. I love these songs so much. Thank you for sharing them!

    ReplyDelete
  68. Thank you so much, Anette!!! :) I just came home from work feeling kind of stressed (new job, lots to learn, my first evening alone = chaos), and after listening to your songs I actually feel that ok, I'm ready to get up after 6 hours and face another day at work! :)) "Floating" is my favorite, and it makes me feel like... floating. :)) So beautiful! I hope we'll hear the mixed album version once, but I really like this demo because your voice sounds so clear and natural...

    ReplyDelete
  69. :) I just listened to both - they are amazing :D Of the two I prefer Invincible... And now I will sit here fidgeting for your solo album as much as for Imaginarium

    ReplyDelete
  70. Though the songs are not ready yet,they still sound promising.Maybe little more ´´rocky´´ style so then I like more.Well,unless the songs is meaning to be that styles,maybe something else would be nice to add but they are good on that way too.

    Your voice is just a little bit different than on October and april.Maybe that difference is little bigger at times but anyway,fits good to the songs.

    Ok,good night

  75. Lovely, lovely songs, Anette. It's very daring and admirable of you to experiment with such different styles. I can't help but notice how beautiful and flowing your voice is, in these two tracks. Controlled, but also very serene and "sparkling". Youthful and very emotional. I'll be honest and admit the type of music isn't really my cup of tea, but I was very, very pleasantly surprised. I hope you can make this project come to light someday and release these songs on an actual album. Kudos and best wishes! =)
