Rain;=(

So, woke up to a totally rainy day outside. A bit boring and we´ll see what me and Nemo will do during the day. We´re gonna take Seth to his football practice later on and then my best friend are coming for a nice tea time with home baked muffins;=)

Johan left early this morning and we miss him already, but hope he´ll have lots of fun on tour;=)

I have just written down some lyrics for my solo songs and sent them to the people who are in charge of the show I´m gonna perform them in soon. So exciting and soon I can tell you about this event;=) First time I´ll sing my OWN songs and its just so fun and totally amazing that I am gonna perform songs that I have written and not someone else´s songs. Special and I am longing for it;=)


Enjoy this day and I hope it´s not as rainy where you all are, as it is here in Helsingborg...

  1. Hi Anette,

    It's dry here (for as long as it lasts)

    I can imagine how much you miss him. :)
    Well, anyway, have fun today,

    Xx

  2. Sounds like you'll have a fun day :)
    Well hopefully the time he's on tour will just fly by for you!

    I would love to see you perform your own songs, and just a question, for performing, would it mostly be in Sweden and around Europe if you are with another band or something like that?

    And this is very much a random question, but I am curious to ask what your views on religion are. So if it's not too personal, or out of line in any manner, what are your beliefs and views on religion?

    Take care

  5. Dear Anette, In Poland, raining from Monday. Outside is gray and gloomy.
    My husband is a soldier and now he went to the training ground for 1,5 months. So I know what itis like when You miss the loved person.
    The hardest thing is when goes on a peacekeeping mission for Irag or Afganistan. Then he is not at home for 7 months. I miss him and pray for his safety.
    Best Regards, Magda

  6. Hej Anette!

    Jag är helt stum just nu! En show där du kommer att framföra dina egna låtar är ju helt underbart :) Hoppas att det är i Skåne så man kan komma och kolla och om det är på tv kommer jag att sitta fastklistrad.
    Jag var i Stockholm och såg dig uppträda på Suomi Safari och det var helt magiskt.
    Sen satt jag vid tv:n och såg P3 Guldgalan och ditt och Pains uppträdande på Nyhetsmorgon.

    Hehe man har ju nästan en liten checklista :D

    Ha en bra dag, även om det regnar och är trist ute!

    //Ellinor

    Ps. bor i Sydskåne och här regnar det och blåser. Men jag sitter och myser med varm choklad i handen!

  9. Anette,

    For your new solo album, are you going to add a bit of a symphonic element to some of your songs since you were singing that kind of music with Nightwish for a good while. Your voice sounded amazing on Imaginerum and Dark Passion Play and I was just curious as to what direction your new album is going to go and wether or not you will keep some of those hard rock influences as well.

    Warmest wishes,
    Ian

  13. Good morning Anette and everyone!
    It's so good to read about you having a show already! I can tell you I'm really looking forward to hear some more about it and of course, I'm expecting it to be in your homeland, in Sweden, but it's still gonna be exciting for the rest of us around the world to know about it as well. I hope everything goes super-smoothly for you with this project and please don't keep us waiting for too long! ;)
    Have a great day, hope the sun comes out soon!

  16. Hello dear Nettie, how are you?
    I am so happy to hear you will sing again!
    I haven0t forgotten your demos, they are beautiful, especially Invicible...It shows mother's feelings for the child, it shows love! :)
    My mum listens to that song every day.
    I hope I will see you and hear you sing again in one concert :)
    Big hugs

  17. Well, I don't like to write about NW here in your blog because I think it's past but since I read this wonderful news I have to say it,
    Yesterday for the first time since you left i watched some NW videos with the substitute singer and god damn it I missed you already, now I miss you even more! Really love you in NW but I'm not saying that i miss you as a part of the band, I'm saying that Miss you as a person, miss your voice and your charisma on stage! You didn't have to look like yeah i'm badass girl and headbanging all the time to make a great show, the only think that I regret is that I had the chance to see you live once and I wasn't able to go! But from the bottom of my heart I hope I see you again kickin ass with your own songs, making great gigs by yourself maybe if you wanna do music full time, see you touring again also =) really hope you continue to do your AMAZING work because you know.. I don't wanna say bad things but your past buddies over there, they're kinda losing it ...BIG TIME!
    Have a wonderful day my dear and all the luck in this world for you <3

  18. Dear Nettie,I can't tell you how much I miss you. I love you so much and I'm so sad,because of you and Nightwish,but if that's the best for you and the boys from NW..then it's ok. I admit,I could't use on your singing when you came on DPP album,but when I saw your interviews and when I saw what good person you are,I almost started to hate myself,because I didn't saw how much you are good as a person. I love you so much and I will,even without NW. Now I just want you to be happy and I want all the best to you,and I can't wait to hear your new songs,because every morning song Invincible wake me up and your heavenly voice. :)
    Love you! <3

  19. Hi, Anette!
    In Moscow is also rainy, but even with snow. It's great that we will see you from stage soon=)Will you visit Moscow this year? Or next?
    With Love,
    Tanya=)

  20. I love rainy days!I'm usually in the best of moods when it rains.But I know that for children it's such a pain in the ass - my brother would go out and play even when it's raining,but he clearly can't.So,when the weather's bad outside,my mum has a really hard time trying to find something for him to do,in order for him not to get bored.What did Nemo do?Hope he had a nice day!
    And about you singing solo songs,I'm just so excited.It's a great news!I mean,I've listened to your demos,and since the first time I heard them,Invincible has been my 'comforting' song during bad days.I haven't been excited for an album in a very long time!I can't wait to hear the things you've created.Everything's so new and exciting!I mean,we sure have seen you on stage,but it was different,because,since you were in a band,I guess the creative process had to do with more people.I'm looking forward to see you during your own tour!Ahhh.
    Hope everything goes on just fine!
    Have a nice day,
    xx

  21. Hi Anette

    Here where I am, in Brazil, the sun is starting to shine, it was a bit cloudy.
    Nice to hear that you'll be performing soon and singing your songs. Will you be singing some rock songs in your album? I think you sounded great singing with Mustasch, love that final part of the medley (I wanna dance with somebody part).

    I was looking forward to see you again with NW in December singing Imaginaerum songs, longing to see Rest Calm live (love this one, great vocals) but I'm not going anymore. I’ve always supported band's decisions, I liked Tarja but understood when she left, I learned to love your voice singing NW songs, I was happy and proud to see you singing better and better the songs that I love so much, but since the day you left I'm feeling so disappointed and I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't enjoy the show this time :(
    Not hating anyone, but the love I had for the band is broken.
    At least, I have great memories from 2008 concert (it's been 4 years today) and to have taken a picture with you and the guys at the hotel in São Paulo. That was so important for me in a year that was quite hard.

    Have a nice day! Hope you have fun with your kids :)
    Love to read your blog, I’m here everyday.

  22. I hate rain! It makes stuff kind of...depressing. I prefer snow because you can play in it. I'm looking forward to hearing your solo stuff which I'm sure will be awesome:)

  23. Hi, dear! I can't wait to hear your new songs, thank you for good news! :)
    I can imagine how you miss Johan but time will flow fast and soon you'll be together :)
    We love you <3

    ReplyDelete
  24. Heeey! How awesome you will be performing your own stuff soon! That's great, really. You deserve the chance to show the world 100% Anette music. Every musician should be able to do that because it must be boring to be on just a tool musician for someone else's music where you can't create much.

    I hope we will be able to watch it online too, since I think many of us won't be able to see it live.

    Have a nice day and all the best! You are a good person and you deserve only good things in your life. Sometimes bad things happen, but in the long run we find out that those things were the best things that could have happened to us. You will do great!

  25. That is so amazing Anette! I can't wait to hear more of your solo songs. I'm sure they will be so beautiful. :-)

  26. Hi Anette!
    What a great birthday present to wake up and hear this exciting news about your solo songs! (it's my birthday today)
    I really really hope I can come to this concert, but it will probably be in Europe/Sweden, right?
    It is sunny here :) that is a nice present for me too.
    I hope you have a really great day even though it's raining and have fun with your friend!
    Love,

  28. I am kicking myself for not seeing you in concert with Nightwish in KC. I had some work and thought I would catch you next time. My husband, son and daughter went and had a fabulous time. My daughter Acacia is still very upset because she totally loves you. We all think your great and are looking forward to seeing the next chapter in your music career. Next time I wont miss.

  34. Hi Anette!

    Here in México the weather is so crazy, somedays the cold is the king and others days (like today) the sun is the master hahaha. But anyway I hope Johan has a great tour. Have you heard "Save tonigth" from Eagle-Eye Cherry? it's a cool song.

    It's great hear about your solo album,because your songs: floating and invincible are amazing, I think you're a great songwriter. I have a question Empu,he will collaborate with you?

    Have a nice day! :)

    Paulo; Hi and thanks for your kind and very wise words,=) I´ve loved to sing others songs and have no problem with that, but as you say, its something special to create something of your own too;=)

    Elinie: Hi and thanks for your sweet words,=) And yeah, I do miss him already but I hope time flies away real fast;=) Sleep really well!

    Rivka:; Hi! yeah, snow is better and makes the world a bit "lighter" than when its grey and totally rainy;=)

    Camila; Hi and thanks for your kind words;=) And yeah, I understand how you feel. Some changes can be ok but when it gets to be to many, the feeling can be lost. Sleep really well;=)

    The dead unicorn; Hi and yeah, rain is a bit harder to go out and play in. I guess the children doesn't mind but its us adults that don't like to go out;=) And thanks for your kind words about Invincible. Its a special song to me and I hope you will like the rest too;=) Sleep well!

    Tanya; Hi! Well, my solo plans are just in the starters so far, and this show is the first to promote my songs so let´s see what happens after that;=) Moscow I don't know, we´ll see what next year will bring;=)

    Emma; Hi and thanks for your kind words;=) So nice that you like Invincible;=) I hope you´ll like the other ones too. Sleep well!

    Karoline; Hi and thanks, you´re so sweet and kind;=) Make me sleep good tonight too;=) Sleep well you too!

  36. Arthur: Hi! I am exactly like you, totally afraid of the dentist so I am so sorry to hear that you have to go there;=( I also cry and act like a baby, but hey, its ok. It isn't fun to go there! Good luck;=)

    Margarita: Hi and so nice you had sun! I am a bit jealous;=) And yes, its great to perform my own songs;=) A dream come true! Sleep well!

    Mynta. Hi! Ok, hope the class went well;=)

    Ian: Hi! Well, its a bit hard to exactly say how the album will sound before its produced and ready, but its nothing similar to Nightwish. But I will use violins in some songs so if the´s symphonic, there will be a bit of that;=) Sleep well!

    Daniel: Hi and nice to hear you have great weather over there,=) Enjoy it*! And nice that you like Invincible;=) I will not perform that in the show, but two other songs I hope you´ll like too;=) Sleep well!

    Martin; Hi and thanks, you always write so kind words to me;=) I thank you for that! When I write songs I use things that has happened in my life to write lyrics and I also prefer to sing more melancholic songs than happy songs. Don't know why, actually;=) At the moment I am writing a song in my native language, Swedish, and its a bit more tricky than writing in English, Maybe cause its so much closer to the heart when its my own language. but I hope I can do more songs in Swedish in the future. Sleep really well now;=)

    One of the last ones: Hej! Vad söt du är, tack;=) Så fort det kommer ut offentligt lover jag berätta mer om var det är etc;=) Sov gott!

    Magda; Oh, my! Now I actually feel I can't ever complain over Johans trips when you have your husband away for so many months at times!;=( That sound so hard to cope with;=( Sleep well!

    Meghan: Hi and first of all: WoW! So happy to hear about your grand mother!!! Great news;=) Miracles do happen;=)
    And then about my solo: I don't know yet so much about when or if I will tour with it. But I would like to not travel to far away from my home country with it. We´ll see,=)
    Then about religion, I am a Christian and believe in God and have done since I was a small child;=) Sleep well now!

    Isa: Hi! I am just fine;=) Hope you are too! Sleep well!

    Elize: Hi and thanks;=) Sleep well!

    1. Thank you, we're all pretty stoked of course!

      Ok than, will just have to wait and see than. Definitely hoping there is a chance for some concerts, as we say in Australia, keen as ;)

      Thanks for answering my question :), I'm personally an atheist who is very much fascinated by religion from a philosophical and anthropological standpoint.

      Take care :)
