First of all I do not get why do you think that someone should give a fuck about all this- what you ate,what you thought before sleeping and all...And you say you're private person :D
The only way you could get less private for me is showing me your fucking underwear-which I could probably see if I would ever to attend a nightwish show anyway...
In short you're just a voiceless attention whore for me.
You've ruined a band I used to love and If you think you can sing you're indeed the stupidest person in the world!
So why don't you spare the world seeing your idiotic clothes on stage and hearing your miserable "voice", get a few liftings and open a shop for stupid dresses?
Much Love,
Vera
Answer to Vera, Nikola or whatever your name is:
I suggest you go and do something else with your days than fill my comments section with such disrespectful and childish posts. If you dont like me thats one thing but why do you think you need to share it with me? Keep your feelings to yourself if you dont have anything good to share with me and the other blog readers here. And listen to the old albums if you prefer them, I dont pressure anyone to listen to me.Its a free world/Anette

Anette, if you accept a suggestion, don't even bother answering to these people. The whole internet is full of them, there's really no need to give them attention: by doing so you just play their game.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree with what you answered, but think about this: what kind of life can be lived by a person who uses his/her time to post on a blog of a person he/she doesn't even like? How sad can that be? :D
hey Anette!
ReplyDeletehow was your gig in Romania?
i hope you had fun there ;)
have a nice day
hugs
To HellGate:
ReplyDeleteIt isn't sad.Ok,his manners were not the best possible,but posting or discussing with someone you don't like,you may tell him/her what you think he/she has done wrong and how to become better.
Not in the way the person above did it though...
Example:Many rock and metal songs are about politicians that destroy the world.They speak to people they don't like,so these artists are sad?
I can't believe how stupid people can be
ReplyDeleteIgnore him/her hun, they obviously have nothing better to do with their time than try and get a reaction through nasty and unnessasary words.
ReplyDeleteJust remember the majority of us follow you with respect and are glad your with the band, as your such a nice down to earth person and having a blog so you can share things with us is something amazing of you to do.
Take care and don't take these comments to heart
Love Cazz
When it comes to replying to the post, I think that answering this one time was in place, but at the same time enough. I think that, if any other frustrated attention-seekers show up, it is really no use bothering.
ReplyDeleteAs to what kind of life people like that have, I agree with HellGate on this one... It must be one sad and lonely life, filled with envy towards other people, so all there is to do is pity them.
And Anette, I am sure you feel that the people/fans who appreciate you and your work are those who matter, so you don't allow such bashing to get to you anymore. Stay strong and good-hearted :)
Hugs,
Tanja
yes these guys should have no attention at all it just feeds them to do more.
ReplyDeleteTo v_kar:
ReplyDeleteDISCUSSING is not what happened here. What happened here was OFFENDING. And, yes, that's VERY sad. There was absolutely NO intention to discuss an issue or an opinion in the guy who wrote that, he didn't say "Hey Anette, you know what, I don't really like you style for this, this and this reason", he called her a "voiceless attention whore".
If that's not sad, I don't know what is.
Ah sadly there are too many people like that and who obviously have nothing better to do, so they want to pass on their bitterness to the much happier people. One thing is the right to dslike somebody, and everybody has that right, but it doesn't give them the right to be disrespectful to that person, as this Nikola was. But aside from that, I think the great majority of us who read this blog and check it occasionally enjoy it very much, and for my part I hope you continue to share your days and thoughts with us here.
ReplyDeleteDear Anette, I agree with Hellgate. And please don't care about people like that. That's only her opinion and I think she shouldn't share it with us. She's wrong. Anette I respect You for that You are Your self and I love You with all of my heart :*
ReplyDeleteLess stupid people like that
This person who wrote this is an idiot. Do not give attention to it Anette. There are certain people who do not deal well with change and it probably is one. Are closed-minded people who want to create discussions. You doing a great job in nightwish, his charisma contagious to the people watching the youtube videos (of time while I get hep hep shouting here). Continue being who you are and not to the comments like this.
ReplyDeletehugs from Brazil and sorry for my bad english. You are the best.
Hei Anette,
ReplyDeleteok this is really childish from Nikola/Vera.. whatever..
I really do not like such persons, who have prejudices about persons who they don't know... If someone don't like your voice, why do they still listen to Nightwish?? Why should you have a voice like Tarja?
You are ANETTE and not Tarja..
I think Tuomas and the boys have made a great decision with you!
And Anette.. you do a GREAT job and don't listen to this persons who don't like your voice...
Among 100 persons, 1 person don't like your voice and 99 persons LOVE your voice.. so don't listen to this stupid comments
And I'm one person who LOOOOOOVE ♥ your voice =)
i♥u<3
Exactly, HellGate is right.
ReplyDeletePeople, who are so miserable that they spent the time reading someone's blog who they obviously do not like...well they don't deserve any kind of reply.
There are still many great, nice and much more well-mannered people who like/love you!
I'm sending you some positive energy and a BIG hug! ♥
Adrienn
I think your answer is the best thing that has ever happened in Vera's miserable life :) I hope it didn't touch you.
ReplyDeleteTo HellGate:
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry,but you said "what kind of life can be lived by a person who uses his/her time to post on a blog of a person he/she doesn't even like? How sad can that be?"
You said POST,not OFFEND.
I am not saying that this person acted right,more like the opposite.I'm only saying that it is possible to post in soneone's blog you don't like and have a normal duscussion.
Your so right Anette!
ReplyDeleteShe is really pathetic!!
Se must have a sad life trying to make others miserable. Don't let it get to you, she's not worth it !
I'm gonna leave now on my trip. Know that I adore you :-)You are an amazing person with a good heart and you have a beautiful voice !!
Kisses XxX
To V_kar:
ReplyDeleteFair enough, I should have written "offend" instead of "post".
Actually I have only one thing to say to that person: WHATEVER!!
ReplyDeleteThat person doesn't deserve very much attention. (Like some other people have said here.)
Love
Daphne
In principle I agree with Hellgate (that one should not even bother typing a reaction to such posts) on the other hand it is good that Anette sets boundaries once and for all, after all it is her blog and she can decide what she wants on here and what not.
ReplyDeleteI do not tolerate these kind of comments on my blog either!
I mean it is not like you are not allowed to disagree, but people writing this sort of rubbish posts simply do not add a value to the whole topic or blog in general, so yeah I agree with Anette's reaction.
Writing "mental diarea" and disagreeing respectfully are two completely different things.
Hi!I have 10 years!I have been to Artmania!I liked very,very,very,very,very much!I love Anette!
ReplyDeletethat person was mean to Anette. I think her voice is amazing ^_^ and your sence of dress is beauiful ^_^ and you are a lovely person and your own person. dont listen to sados like this person. And just be your self <3
ReplyDelete*Hugs and Bunnies*
Iona
xxxxx
Good day Anette!
ReplyDeleteThat person wasn't worth of Your time. Really, they just seek attention and probably are happy when they receive it. I totally understand that You wanted to reply such a rude post since it's entirely Your blog and You give us Your time but I think it's better not to stress about such a meaningless and hateful person Nikola/Vera is. They don't deserve even a second of the attention. Don't let it bring You down. Some people are just too stupid to act in a polite manner.
Anyway! Hope You had a fantastic gig! Have a safe trip home <3
Hygs,
Karo E.
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hellgate, don't bother answering to those comments. People should not give them any attention ... Vera or whatever her name is, is probably a very sad person who has nothig more interesting to do in her life. When I read her comment in her previous post I wanted to kick her ass so badly ... but I decided to keep my feeling for myself and just ignore her ;).
Hope you had lots of fun yesterday! Can't wait to see your outfit he he.
You're the best.
Much love,
Barbara
I am sorry you had to read that.
ReplyDeleteYou have been in the band for awhile now and I don't get why people can't accept that. :(
Take care Lisa xx
Som folk redan sagt så finns dessa typer av individer överallt på internet, speciellt på youtube pågår fortfarande "kriget" mellan dig och Tarja. URLÖJLIGT! är vad det är och jag blir lika arg varje gång jag ser kommentarerna. Att folk ens orkar ödsla energi och tid på att känna hat hela tiden.
ReplyDeleteSå försök att inte låta dem komma åt dig, det är naturligtvis jätte svårt att inte ta vid sig av såna hatiska ord, då dem alltid på något sätt sätter ett litet osynligt spår i ens undermedvetna. Var stark
WTF?! don't believe this rubbish, Anette, you are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHugs <3
Hey Anette. Don´t care about the people which doesn´t like your voice or you as a person. You have a great and powerful voice...and the most important thing is, that you sing all songs with a very emotional voice and all people know, that you sing from the bottom of your heart. I like Tarja as a singer of course, because she have a wonderful voice, but I like you as a singer of Nightwish and as a person. You are so friendly to everyone. For me its very special because the situation for you to be in a successful and world known band was very new and stressful I think. So, you have all my respect! Take care!
ReplyDeletewow vilken chock man får... vilken j***a idiot. Jag hatar personer som bara vill ha uppmärksamhet. men du tar väl inte åt dig om någon skriver sånt här? jag menar, alla får ha sina egna åsikter. under dom första veckorna som du hade varit en medlem i Nightwish så läste man nästan bara dumma kommentarer på internet. hon har fula kläder, sjunger dåligt... och såna saker. men du är jättebra på det du gör och du ska fortsätta med det. och som du sa, saknar man Tarja så sätt på en gammal skiva, är det så svårt? jag är ett JÄTTESTORT fan och jag älskar den här bloggen och att du vill dela med dig av dina tankar.
ReplyDeleteMånga kramar från mig!
//Ellinor
What a stupid comment! Ignore this fool Anette, he or she or whatever isn't right! :(
ReplyDeleteAnette, in the world, there are good people and stupid people. N and V belongs to the second one, don't listen to them, they are stupid, they don't have anything to do in their life except for criticizing you. They are stupid!
ReplyDeleteAnette don't think about them :)
You are my godness! :)
Bye bye
'Vera' is taking advantage of the fact that she doesn't have to face the consequences of what she says by using the blog medium to insult someone she would otherwise have no chance of being able to talk to...like people do on forums...like you said, it's incredibly childish.
ReplyDeletei really hope you don't let what this person said upset you Anette, because the majority of your blog readers really appreciate the fact that you want to share your thoughts and daily life with us!
as a singer you are someone that i really look up to and admire, along with only two others (Sharon den Adel and Anneke van Giersbergen).
see you in Helsinki in september! :)
Catherine xxx
Hi!
ReplyDeleteAnette you are absolutely right. And I also agree with HellGate. The internet is full of people who insult everybody and everything because they don't have anything else to do. And if she(Nikola/Vera likes Tarja better than she should suck up to her on her own blog(if she has one) and not insult you on your blog... This Nikola/Vera is just an atention seeking person(I wanted to write something less friendly) who is jealous of you because she was probably one of other singers trying out to become Nightwish singer and didn't become(and even if she wasn't trying out she is still atenttion seeking). But you did became Nightwish singer and you have an amazing voice, lots of energy on stage and great fashion sense. And I also know that everyone has a right to disagree with others but if they do they should politely disagree and not insult everybody and everything. Oh well the point is that this person is pathetic and that you shouldn't listen to her.
Hugs and kisses to you from Ana
I can't believe she just did it...I hate people in general, they can be so mean!
ReplyDeleteYou didn't ruin the band! How dare she??
If you don't like it, just don't listen, it's your lost! There is a lot of things that I hate but I don't say anything cause I don't want to hurt people's feelings...whatever!
Anette, I'm so happy that you joined the band, I can't imagine anyone else in your place, seriously. Plus, I love your attitude...you don't get upset and deal with these people in such a good way. I wish I could do the same.
You are a respectful person and you deserve respect, unlike this girl ;)
Your fans, people that like you will always stand up for you, I know it :)
Love you,
Maria.
Hi My dear Anette:
ReplyDeleteMy opinion:
"This person does nothing in the head, I find it shameful to talk about this if you like! I think you're a great singer Anette and does not pay attention to these stupid people I know of no singer as close to the audience as you ANETTE LOVE YOU!"
PS: And thanks very very much for this super blog,your myspace and official website!
BIG LOVE
Isabelle
Hi from Belgium <3 Anette ignore this stupid comment. You are the best ,believe in you and all your fans too ^^. Sorry for my english. :s Kiss you <333
ReplyDeleteOk, really. It's one thing to give constructive cirticism, or give your opinion politely.
ReplyDeleteBut that, that is just RUDE!
Anette, I love the way you deal with these kind of things. And I hope you realize that, despite the haters, there are so many more who love you and your work and will always stand up for you.
Hell, I feel like if this were one of those situations where we were kids and you were my little sister or something, and this was a bully being mean to you, i'd go beat him/her up =D.
Much Love,
Max
Well, I read your blog every day but never posted a comment before, but I feel this is the correct time for me.... Personally, I became a NW fan because of you... I never paid attention to the band before, like it a little... You have a great voice and a great stage presence, you gave it to the band something new and fresh... You managed to be a new singer and frontwoman, to deal with a huge world tour and with this kind of "fans".....Is not easy to be compared every single moment with someone else... ((Being a Europe fan since 23 years now, I can tell you, after five years since their reunion, there´s still the Norum/Marcello fight among fans and I don´t know if people will stop to compare them some day!! ;=))... When I don´t like something I just don´t listen, nor watching or buy it.... But you know, stupid people is everywhere... My advice: keep the hard work, be yourself, and don´t waiste your time answering these stupid and arrogant people... Big hug from Argentina, Fernanda...
ReplyDeleteI love you anette!!!!
ReplyDeleteignore the idiots and keep doing what you do best and that is singing!!
thanks for keeping nightwish alive!
xx
Adam
Anette, Posting replies to bad comments will only feed the war!
ReplyDeleteIt is very sad to notice that you make a question to anette in good faith for a long time, and a rude person takes your place attracting her attention in this bad way.
It 's just a waste of time, time that anette would have used to respond to other commentors kind questions.
@Anette: 1)last but not least, of course you do in a way you feel, but would not it be better to ignore or delete such comments? You have a strong personality even if you are very sensitive and I'm sure you can overcome it in your position..
I know you hate when someone tells you what to do or how to do, but it's just my humble opinion, for you to read.
I think it would be more professional as well, to ignore those kind of comments.
I mean, my friend is a musician too and gets some nasty comments on youtube. But come on! Just ignore them.
Irony won't erase or heal the cruelty inside.
2) I hope I'm not bothering you asking 7 times for your car for sale's details, for this couple I know would buy it so they just hope you reply. If it is annoying for you, I would really know!!
3) You deserve your fansite and kind commentors on your blog, you are an adorable girl :=)
Hugs and kisses,
Poochie
Nikola, if you don't like Anette why did you visit her site and blog?Like she said it's free world, noone forces you to do anything and Anette has right to do anything she wants with her life.
ReplyDeleteAnette, I agree with you but you should't care about that kind of people.
ReplyDeleteGuys choose you beacuse you was the best on audition and you are THE BEST!
Take care!
Big hug
Hi Anette!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about that.
Remember that you have many people in the world that love you, your voice, your job…I can see that you're a woman with CHARACTER and has a WONDERFUL and GOOD heart, this is important.
I appreciate Nightwish more than before and I think that Tuomas and the boys have made a great decision choosing you.
You gives life and color to the band. Don't give up NEVER.
Continue doing what you LOVE!!!
I LOVE YOU!!!
and Thanks for all.
Hugs and kisses
Heloísa :)
Anette! Don't care about such ignorant/childish/stupid/whatever people! You are AMAZING, and you will always be! We LOVE you very very very much or even more!, so don't be sad/frustrated/angry about these negative people, because they are NOT telling their own opinions, no... they are BASHING you. And bashing doesn't quite match with politeness. Of course I can understand that you get so many negative comments from the very beginning and that you got enough of them, but we, the fans are here for you to confirm that you are the most amazing singer on Planet Earth and that you are the best choice to be the singer of Nightwish. <3
ReplyDeleteWE LOVE YOU FOREVER, YOU DEAREST ANETTE!!! <3 HEP HEP! <3
I'm so sorry people are so pathetic Anette. The fact she bothered to register for a blog thing just to insult you really is pathetic.
ReplyDeleteI dont understand after what is it now 3, nearly 4 years why people haven't got over that Tarja left. Seeing as Tarja fully respects you, I think her little diehard fans should too.
Just ignore these people. I know how hard that must be but you have so many supporting fans here on your blog and all around the world. And all the support in the world from the Nightwish guys.
You do such an amazing job Anette, you really do. You have the most beautiful voice. I have always really admired you for your strength and determination through all of this.
All my love and support
Love Kellie xxx
To "Vera" and everybody like her:
ReplyDelete1) Get a life or at least a useful hobby
2) Get respect
3) Think before you speak / write / act
4) Simply just don't watch or read about things you don't like
5) Don't waste our time with your immature bubbles
6) DON'T INSULT OTHERS, that's a sign of a very shabby character. Aren't you on earth to learn and grow???
Thank you,
Pixie
Hello Anette!
ReplyDeleteI decided to go eat, but I thought before eating I check your blog...when I read your last post, I suddenly wasn't be hungry...
What a childish, idiot "person" is she...she even can't decide what her name is...and she blames you?... -.-" What a pitiable "person"...
When I read, or hear that somebody blames you, I always get veery angry...but I realised, that those people didn't grow up spiritually, and I don't waste my time for them...
Please don't care these morans and their pitiable manifestitions...
But close this topic, because it isn't worth the time...
Did you have a great time in Romania? :) I'm looking forward to see your backstage pictures, if you could make some :)
Take care,
Jani
Some people really need to get a life.
ReplyDeleteEnough said.
We all love you Anette! People like Nicola can quite frankly...(and to put it politely) go away.
Best wishes, Ryan
Hey Anette,I'm really sorry that you had to read that messege from Vera or whatever was her name!I think that you don'd need to listen to those messeges because you are reallly a great pearson and whoever thinks that this is not true...well it's an idiot!
ReplyDeleteNow,how was your gig in Romania? Wish i was there in Sibiu,but you see I live in Brasov and i couldn't come and see you...maybe another time! Hope you're not upset,Catalina
You know, it's one thing to tell someone
ReplyDeleteyou don't like their voice or whatever. It's
another to do it so disrespectfully.
I really don't think saying something on her
blog was the best idea considering you
know everyone else will jump you for it
because we do like Anette and her voice.
And maybe you don't care about how she spends
her days or what she's wearing.
But to us, it gives us an insight and a
"behind-the-scenes" kind of thing and I really
am glad she does it. Yes, I also asked myself,
why would she have a blog if says she is such
a private person? But I think it goes
back to showing the goodness of a person
to the world. If she opens up and is kind more
people are likely to do the same. If you don't
like her blog or her voice, then move on
already. It has been three years now, no? If
you don't like Anette and you just want Tarja,
nothing is stopping you from no longer
listening to Nightwish and just listening to
Tarja's songs. Yes, maybe you are thinking
that a real fan would be upset
because she's gone, but I believe a real fan
goes with the band and supports them in
their choices. I don't understand why people
can't love them both, and why people
are still talking about it.
Anette- I'm really sorry that this has happened.
It's one thing to see it on the internet
but it's another to have the stupidity to come
and say it on your blog where everyone
will get upset about it. I think you should
always remember that maybe, yes, someone
doesn't like you, but there's plenty more who
love you. And you can see that if you just
read your comments. I hope what this
person has said won't influence you and what
you put on your blog, because I mean it when I
say that we all love that you've
come out of saying that you will be totally
private, and you've opened
up some things to share with us.
Hugs and love, Katie T.
Hey Anette,
ReplyDeletestay cool, thousands others love you :)
Dear Anette, please dont't care about people like this Nikola/Vera or what...You are a wonderful, open-minded person with a good heart, and of course with an amazing voice.We love because of that, you are the kind, and
ReplyDeletethat's the reason why Tuomas and the other boys of Nightwish have choose you, and it was a very good decision.
I think it's not worthy to reply these comments. People like this want to call the attention for themselves only, anything on a price.
Please don't change !!! You are on the right way, and your fans love you.
And the opinion these people...do not deal with them, please.
Take care!
love
Erika
What a pleasure you give to Nikola-Vera-Whatever discussing her comment. There is some orcs who can't imagine their life without reviling at somebody. And they really like when people, reviled by them, begin to react to provocations. Thats their's aim. So I think it's better to stop discussing it. It doesn't deserve any attention.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about envious, dear ;)
ReplyDeleteThey don't have you potential
I love your blog and all what you post, this is a form of genuine fans get closer to you.
Sorry my very bad English XD
Kisses a fan of Brazil
I love you dear ;*
I guess people have a right to their opinions. But it's one thing for her to post here and say that "I disagree with something you said." Or "I'm offended by something you said" and state why. Instead she comes here just to tell you how much she dislikes you...which makes her coming here and reading your blog completely pointless.
ReplyDeleteI guess someone who isn't a fan of you being the singer of Nightwish was going to come by at some point. Lets just hope it doesn't happen often.
I for one, enjoy reading your blog and getting to know more about you :). And personally, being from America, seeing all the photos, and seeing the sort of food you eat is interesting.
I hope she didn't upset you or bother you too much! Unfortunately, this is the music business, you'll have those who like you and those who hate you :-/.
<3 Lauren
Just ignore thoose comments.
ReplyDeleteYou are a great person!
Btw , how was your gig in Romania?
Hugs
Hei Anette,
ReplyDeleteit's me again ;)
Do you know if there's a Topshop store in Helsinki/Espoo?
I really like the stuff from Topshop because of you ;)
I♥u<3
Hey, Nettan, every day I believe you're bringing more people to listen to Nightwish, even the fans of the previous era! You're really awesome! Do not care about these ridiculous comments full of envy and hate. ;)
ReplyDeleteHugs from Brazil!
^^
Hej Anette,
ReplyDeleteThere are always people that love to destroy things like this. Take youtube. When you post a vid about yourself and you sing there or say something. And then came the people that love to give you no self confidence, they said that you are stupid and your face is ugly and such things. those people are people that make's accounts only to destroy this things. But there are always people that understand you. And said to those people to stop.
And your blog is really cool there are alot of followers that love to read about you about your day and what you have done and i'm one of them,
Much love,
Fay
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteAt first, I need to say that don't matter how much cruel one person can be,don't matter if someone hates you ... because you know there is much more people who loves you. So don't worry! me and all the others fans really love every post you do.
I always loved you as a singer, but after I read your blog I started to love who you are too, the truth in your words, your fellings, your way of life.
Kisses from Brazil
with all love of the world
whoever that been Nicola/Vera... soooooo childish... don't paid attention on those people
ReplyDeleteit's not te first or last that will wrote those sh*ts on your blog
You are great Anette!
hugs
Hello Anette.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad to know that some people likes to spend energy writing things like that, but don't worry about them. Ignore them, Anette. You know that you've got a lot of fans and the proof is this blog and the several lovely comments you receive every day.
Well, I became a Nightwish fan because of you, when I watched to the video Amaranth. I Knew some old songs but when I listened to your voice and I saw your smiling face I thought "wow, that woman rocks! Nightwish now has a really rock n roll sound" :) And It was so funny to notice that we wear almost the same kind of clothes and shoes, that was an amazing coincidence :D
Anette, I'm a proud fan and I will always support you.
a big hug!
Eliete
Loves Anette, Do not let you down make I and my mummy love you as you are all the same which the others saying you have many fans you to love and like as you are! You are in ours always live strong personal no and in our heart!!!!! We love you Franci and Susanne and love greet to the 4 men!
ReplyDeleteAnette- There are so many narrow-minded idiots, they almost make me weap for humanity, they really do. People like that really need to get ther attitude sorted, and don't deserve to comment on the internet if they have not got anything nice to say. People like that are called "Trolls" and don't deserve to have any attention, because that makes them feel better, and think they are better They are idiots, to say the least.
ReplyDeleteDo not listen to anything what that person has to say to you, you are not a "Voiceless Whore" at all, you are a kind, beautifull woman with a fantastic voice and a utterly amazing personality. You sing for one of the best bands I know, and that poster is obviously a very rude Tarja fan. I dislike Nightwish "Fans" like that greatly, they are very narrow-minded, and should go listen to her solo carrer or the "Old" Nightwish and stop bothering you. Because, if anything, you made Nightwish better! You are brillaint live, and you really know how to make people happy. You are kind and respecfull to your fans, and know how to deal with things. And plus you have a amazing fanshion sence! Some of your stage clothes made me green with envy! You're one a million, and I hope you know that :)
whta the fuck?
ReplyDeleteOh...again...What the fuck?
jajajaaja
Anette RULLES!!!!
Don't feed the fire, Anette... There will always be those who don't like you for one thing or another and they will express their opinions just like the rest of us here (though one could hope that they might do it in a nicer way. Unfortunately, that is not always the case...)
ReplyDeleteYou have many other readers here that respect you and love you and are glad that you are in Nightwish. Why not just focus on those? Put the bad aside and concentrate on the good instead. It's often easier said than done, but really well worth it. I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fan of yours around here, I've been personally offended by one of your blog entries in the past, but I like to believe that that was not your intention so I keep reading. You have a beautiful voice, hun, and a great stage presence. I do respect you as a singer and an artists. Just don't let horrible comments like that overshadow what you're all about.
Yelena~
Hi Anette:
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I want to congratulate you in your performances in Nightwish. You really give the band a new face, but so what?
Like Tuomas said someday, the band was at the begining a acoustic band, and see now haha ^^
You're the best Anette never let anybody like that sad person over there let you down. You're a great singer and I can see for your blog that you're a great person as well ^^
Keep Rocking.
From Your allways fan.
Nikola/Vera/Whoever is really not worth listening to. I totally agree with what you said also, because they have absolutely nothing that is making them come to your blog or listen to your singing (they must be screwed up in the head if they don't like your singing anyway,but whatever :D). Super-confrontational people are just irritating.
ReplyDeleteIf she hates you so much, then why is she bothering to read your blog in the first place?! The fact that she has come on here purely to insult you shows that A)She has no life and B)You are obviously charismatic and important enough to be provoking all sorts of reactions from people!
ReplyDeleteAs many people have said, don't take any notice. Your blog is for you fans and we all think that its great that you would take the time to incude us in your world and show us what an kind and friendly person you are.
*hugs*
Sari.
Hey Nettan
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is oh my god. Please don't waste your time thinking about that kind of stupid and idiot comments. It's so easy to say something bad on the Internet (and with the "alias"). I'm definitely sure that Nikola or Vera or whatever couldn't never ever say anything like that to you in real life.
You are beautiful, strong, open-minded and nice person, believe that. It's really great that some big artist will share a piece of her life with us (fans). I think it's so considerating and shows us how much you care about us.
And isn't it lovely to see how much there are commentors who defend you? :)
Take care, hugs
Kristina
ehhhmmm..hellu Anette)
ReplyDeletei have the only one thing to say which is - weird...
Yep, you didn't really have to answer that girl or boy i didn't get who is that..
I remember your words that you said in the interview once:" You cannot be loved by everyone and that's a fact"..i still have it in m mind so this is te best thing to say about all of this..))if i got such comment i would only laugh on that person cause of his/her irresponsibility to keep it's envy and fury inside and to be polite,so...)
Good day to you Anette)_
Inga
Come on! this kind of people need to get a life!
ReplyDeleteAnette don't waste your time reading this posts, they don't deserve your atention!!
Kisses and huges from Brazil
A big hug for you, Anette!
ReplyDeleteDon't bother this kind of comments :* Of course, not everybody has to love you or even like you, but there has to be a bit of politeness. Ignore this comments and remember that there are many people that accept you as a new NW singer and love you :* I always loved Nightwish, but you made my fav band even better :) I love your beautiful voice, your interpretation of many old NW songs make my cry. You made NW better, the boys are really happy and full of energy, concerts are the best, and I just love your contact with fans! :) You're a beautiful, strong and sensitive woman and remember that fans love you ;)
Have a nice day and don't fuss about this kind of stupid persons ;) :*
Hej, hej, Anette!
ReplyDeleteI just arrived home from Sibiu, I know you'll be home soon yourself... I wonder if you enjoyed your stay at the Artmania festival, and in Transylvania overall! Did you also go to Sighisoara with the NW boys?
About your hotel, well, I told you you'd love it! It was kept a secret, the identity of the place where you'd be living, but I drew some conclusions, speculated a bit, and realized that that's where you'd be staying after all. suits Nightwish, definitely! Victorian and classy ;)
(Btw, I'm the girl from the press conference who asked about Britney Spears hehe..)
Cheers!
<3<3<3
Also, I haven't slept in three days and I'm beat.
ReplyDeleteI found Peter and Michael in an underground bar last night, with Marco... I managed to lure Marco out into the open air, he was drunk off his ass, I felt very worried, he was worse than the usual "dizziness" metalheads indulge with..
His Finnish "Babysitter" didn't bother to take him to the hotel, although he actually told me and my friend he was feeling extremely bad and he wanted to go to the hotel, so we were heading there, but his Finnish companion got angry at US. WHEN IT WAS HIS FAULT Marco was still drinking! he took him to the pub, already intoxicated! Marco was so sick he couldn't even hurl out all the Finlandia and jagermeister..
Anyhow, my uncle (he was taking care of took care of the Pain boys), made sure they got to their hotel safely!
I "stalked" Marco and the other guy until I saw them enter the hotel, they actually stopped on the way there at another bar! wtf! Marco didn't want to stay I could see him trying to get away but the guy was holding him by the arm!
please, if you read this post Anette, reply something about it, maybe you can do something good for Marco, get him a better care-taker haha... although he shouldn't need one.
The Finnish guy I'm talking about has shoulder-length curls, wears glasses and spends a lot of his time with Ewo and Tony, hehe...
I think we looked very suspicious to him last night haha, two chicks dragging a drunk Marco out of the pub. I'd be surprised if anybody believed us we were trying to get him to the hotel.
hope what we did doesn't get us in trouble somehow!...
If that retard chick/guy wanted to catch some attention...well, s/he got it. Maybe s/he should find a nice girlfrient/boyfriend. No, no, no, poor girlfriend/boyfriend.
ReplyDeleteDon't waste your precious time with him/her.
Love you, Anette =)
Take care,
Fábio
Don't listen to her Anette. There will always be people who won't like you just because you're not Tarja and who are too narrowminded to give someone else a chance. It sucks, but keep thinking about us, the people who DO love you because you ARE a great singer, a great person. I admire you for this - for taking the job in Nightwish, for just being yourself and showing that you don't care about people who don't like you!
ReplyDeleteWhen I read comments from people who don't like you just because you're not Tarja, it just makes me wanna kick their asses because I don't like narrowminded people. I gotta tell you this; I was a big Tarja fan and I was like 'I'm not gonna listen to Nightwish with their new singer' after Tarja got fired. But then I started listening and I did like it though I kind of had to get used to it, and I started listening to the entire album and it is so special to me, songs like TPATP and Meadows of Heaven which brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it, I loved it!!
More people should do that these days, you know.. The people that are like 'we want tarja back' already had their judgement and they never gave you a chance. Those people are childish, immature and rather dumb. You are a wonderful singer and a wonderful person with lots of courage and power, don't ever doubt that!
Keep on rocking Anette, you know we love you!
I have nothing to comment... I'd just say, that the greatest thing IS that named person doesn't like you. It says a lot of you that you don't have such miserable stupid fans. You're real person, with a great heart, with real life full of amazing events, people, everything. And if it must be paid with evil comments of some "people" sitting in front of their computers all day long putting crap all around the Internet, I think, it's ok.
ReplyDeleteWe're the ones who need your your blog, ones who love you. Nothing else matters. Hope you don't feel sad because of this idiots... Anette. you're great!
Champion words, Anette!
ReplyDeleteAll that Nikola/Vera has is just envy.
;D
hei Vera/Nikola or what ever:
ReplyDeleteshut your mouth okay!!!
why do you read Anettes' blog if you don't like her??
and your arguments are so silly
I'm really happy that Anette shows us her new outfits and some privat thinks
and by the was her voice is amazing and she is very good for nightwish - and i love her outfits they are crazy and cute!!!
so just shut your mouth and don't get on Anettes' and our nervs!!
Anette just ignore such stupid kiddys!
I'm really angry!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy these people think that the world need to being filled with their stupidity!?
You're not a whore!!
How he/she can write that!?
ARG
I'm tired of all these people that judge your job!
And well, you're a really beautiful and stronger person!
You have and amazing personality and a very, very fantastic voice!
I just want to tell you that we (all your fans) are support you about everything!
And now we must to ignore these things!
Love you, dear Anette.
Take care and keep on with your life.
Hey Anette.. Just read about this horrible comment.. Every time I see that things I feel sad about you, because you have to go through all of this bad things. I can't even try to think where you get all the strenght to carry on when there are people bashing you.
ReplyDeleteI can say you're an inspiration for me about this because when someone mock me I stop going to the places in which I can find him/her. In fact I can say I go out really few times, just when some friend of mine insist to bringing me out.
It's also great to see that you managed to answer in a polite way. You didn't lowered your level to him/her. Great display of maturity! =) I just hope that you won't shut up the blog because of some stupid that may come back and harass you..
Anette: the most of us loved Nightwish from even before the split from Tarja.. and we love you. You are doing an awesome job and I'm sure you will do it as long as you can.. Just wanted to remember you that for every "person" that hates you, there are 1000 that love you. And I'm proud to be one of those. Bye <3
Hi there,Anette !!!
ReplyDeleteI'll repeat what the others have said - it's not worth it paying attention :)It's the easiest thing to critisize which makes it fool's favourite hobby :) For some life is positive, for others - negative.I think we all know you're one of the most positive and smily persons ever so don\t let things like that bother you.We love you! :) Hope the gig in Romania was great, hope you'll tell something about it.I watched pretty crappy video of you and PAIN onstage and saw the bulgarian flag in the audience *proud* Hugs
hello Anette!
ReplyDeletefirst of all let me tell you that the gig in sibiu was great..i mean i waited 10 years to see nw live and it was awesome:D
but something ruined my joy..i would have really loved to take some photos with you and the guys...and i mean i waited 2 hours after the concert and the only abswer i received was that ..well nothing:((.i know that after 2h of singing it's really difficult to come and take pictures but somehow that is a part of a rockstar life.i heard(saw) that the boys were so drunk that they couldn't even write a normal autograph...somebody showed me what marco wroted as an autograph to a fan:i'm a sucker!:(anyway i'm glad that i saw you live(it was awesome!!!)..and maybe this happiness will be stronger than the dissapointment...maybe i'll have more luck at another gig in romania.
p.s:o hope my comment didn't upset you..this wasn't my intention:)have a nice day.
Hi Anette! I love you and many others too. You were the best choice to be a Nightwish front woman. Hugs, kisses
ReplyDeleteThey are just stupid...
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing and we love you, France loves you! =) <3
Big Kisses!
<3 <3
I just cannot understand these people...
ReplyDeleteFor example:
I went to a place where they call "Rock Gallery"... Not here in São paulo, but in another city that I was visiting... I was in a store looking some Nightwish stuff, and I found one of the Dark Passion Play special editions that I don't have... I asked the clerk to play it for me to see if it was the original one or it was just another bootleg...
He played it, and the sound was really high... So the clerk from the other store came to the store that I was and said: "I can't believe you're listening to this little bitch!" I was like "WHAT THE F***????"
So when I got off and passed in front of the other store, the crazy clerk was playing the End Of An Era DVD really loud... I told her "Oh, did you get jealous?"... And she said "This is a real singer... a real woman... not that Anette thing"... So I told her I wouldn't buy anything on her store because she was totally disrespectful, not only with "Anette", but also with me... And she didn't care! She prefers to be stupid and not sell her products to someone who likes the "new era"...
Then I started thinking... Why these people are SO, SOOOO stupid? The crazy clerk lost an oportunity to sell her stuff, just because she is a die hard Tarja fan... This is totaly madness...
So, Anette, I agree with the other people that comment here... It's not worth paying attention to these people... they're totally TOTALLY insane! The narrow-mindness of them get to a point that it's out of our comprehension!
And don't worry! I bet that lots of people are not that stupid... We love you just the way you are! And I love reading about your clothes, food, days, etc...
Sorry for the big comment!
Luv ya!
Bea
I just can't understand that kind of ppl ;/ How anybody can tell that you ruined Nightwish? Guys from band has chosen you and that was their decision so how real fan of Nightwish can say things like these one above?
ReplyDeleteI know such stupid comments are annoying you, but still - you are beautiful woman, with beautiful voice and you're still improving your skills - so I think you were the best choice for this band! Moreover and it is more importatnt to me - you're not trying to be someone else, you're still Anette and it's nice to read about your normal (or simetimes not ;)) life.
She is surely one of those stupid people who go to the concerts just to show how her middle-finger is beautiful. And still they pay to see you. :D
ReplyDeleteThese should really get a life or at least grow up and buy only the old albums, instead of coming here just to say s**t that won't change a thing about the situation.
Don't bother Anette, for each people like that, you have a thousand fans supporting you.
All of us here are just above such childishness.
Love you Anette, wish you all the best!! :D
Nettie, Please, don't bother about such stupid kids.
ReplyDeleteYou're the best that could be in Nightwish, in the whole world ^^
We LOVE YOU
And so, we want to thank you for beeing such a positive and kind person.
This is for you: ^^
http://darudar.org/var/files/img/75/f5/75f5dfe91f791f0f2b5ec33c8da92309_600.jpg
And I think this person got just what he wanted... A WHOLE ANETTE'S POST FOR HIM! That's not fair!
ReplyDeleteI didn't say bad stuff about you, Anette! I want a post for me too! :(
I'm gonna cry :(((((((
Hahaha! Just kidding!
Well, I hope you keep answering this kind of comment. Actually, it's so funny! I know you always laugh very much when you read these comments! Hahahahahah
ReplyDeleteAnette, you don´t have worry about the people thinks. they only cause to you and what you must is not leave that happens. In this world of remors and hatreds,and many things it is very difficult to understand but the important things is that you are continue being you, you are doing a great job in Nightwish, don´t forge it. Hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat I don't understand is why those people always blame YOU? they should at least have the guts and blame the other band members, because they've chosen you. I mean you do an excellent job in frontig this band, but those "fans" will never ever change their opinion. In their book nightwish will always be some kind of opera-metal which demans a classical singer...which is bull...... ;-).
ReplyDeleteFor me there'se no question, that I really prefer Nightwish 2.0 because I've never been into classical vocals that much. I got used to them and they didn't bother me, but the reason why I became a fan of this band has been Tuomas' songs. After end of an era I really hoped for a more traditional type of rock voice and I got i :) I guess it's no surprise for me that, I really prefer quite a few new versions of the old songs. Sacrament for instance...
Don't worry, those old-era-fanatics are really the minority here ;-)
Oh God... i have no word!! I don't don't undestand why if her doesn't like Anette must write here. Anette doesn't care about her... there are person they love you and this the best thing that you could have! I love you!!
ReplyDeleteOh my god!, he/she's got some nerve saying things like that!, what the hell, can't somebody even share their experiences/interests with their fans anymore?
ReplyDeleteAnd also wonder why someone who claims to hate you so much is on your blog anyway?
And besides, if you really were that bad of a singer, you wouldnt be in Nightwish in the first place!
It's so childish, of course i miss Tarja too but I know that she and NW is never gonna happen again, its a new era, the Anette era and its great!
you are a fantastic artist and really really kind!
what a brutality from someone who doesnt even know you...
Just ignore these ridiculous people i'd say, they're not even worth replying too!
YOU ROCK ANETTE!!!! never forget that!!
Lots of Love, Lisa
Tbh, I honestly dont think Anette lets these kind of comments get to her. She's had a lot worse thrown at her these past 2 years! Its just an anonymous idiot hiding behind a computer screen who clearly has nothing better to do. I dont like Lady Gaga, but I dont post on her blog, simple as! I simply ignore :)
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for people like this. They just want to tear into other people to feel justified in their own hate. Newsflash to all haters. It was unanimously decided by the BAND before Anette came on the scene to let Tarja go. Anette wasn't even their first pick. She rocked their socks off at the last minute and got into the band.
ReplyDeleteoh and also, where he said "You've ruined a band I used to love"
ReplyDeleteI couldnt help but roll over the floor from laughing there!
The band was already apart for at least a year when you cam into the picture!
They split because it just didnt work anymore, pretty sad you're being blamed for this...
and, once again to all those haters out there
Anette is NOT a Tarja replacement, Anette is Anette, a great vocalist with her OWN style!
To these people i wanna say,
If you love Tarja, great me too, GO BUY HER SOLO ALBUM!!!
and leave Anette be herself!!!
Xxx Lisa
Hey Anette :)
ReplyDeleteI am just disgusted by what this person has said to you. It's just so immature! (I know many have been saying that and you know it too, but I just have to say it as well). You and many people know this- that you can't make everyone happy and make everyone love you. But I am pretty sure that more of the world loves you than not. (I hope that made sense hehe).
You're an amazing singer Anette, and a beautiful and interesting person. Your style is unique, and no one can take that away from you.
Keep singing <3
xoxo
-'Lena
I simply can't understand this "demostrations" of human stupidity.
ReplyDeleteThanks God that you are such a strong and smart person, and you know that your warmth and your goodness are the greatest weapons you have against those silly comments.
Keep on doing your job and spreading all that magic through your voice =)
Hugs, hugs, hugs ^^
Paz
Hmmmm...Nicola/Vera represents the anti fans who just love to hate you Anette. These people know "everything" about you,I mean all the information there is on public.
ReplyDeleteSome are even more aware about what you do than your real fans.. The best thing I guess is to ignore them, but its good that you lifted up this comment so that people could express their thought about this and so that Nicola and her fellow haters can see them.
I personally cant understand why would anyone be interested about a person they dislike..and how can you hate/dislike anyone you dont know??
Do not bother your mind and kind heart by thinking about this. You are absolutely wonderful and charming ;))
ReplyDeleteLots of hugs
(sorry for my bad English)
ReplyDeleteAnette, don't waste your time with these people.
Nightwish is still a great band and I loved 'Dark Passion Play', it is, for me, the best CD of Nightwish since Once!
Anyway, I love you and thanks to show me how to follow my dreams and believe them!
xx
Flá
Anette, in my opinion you are good singer with good voice and fuck all these stupid kids. they don't respect not only you but all Nightwish band and all of us.
ReplyDeleteP.S. You're GREAT and I love you
Kisses from Poland
KIDS SAYING SHIT'S. Anette reborn the music of Nightwish, she's very great! love your work.
ReplyDeleteHei Anette !
ReplyDeleteEven if I'm not a fan of your voice and all, you don't deserve to be treated this way, and nobody deserves this!!
Yes, some people are really stupid,
you are a famous singer, informing your fans about what you do is an important part of your job and nobody can blame this.
Well ... said in a wrong way, really, and very rude, but he said what he thinks and what think at least half of all true fans of Nightwish!
ReplyDeleteHello Anette
ReplyDeleteFirst I'd like to say that you're very right with your answer. This comment was disrespectful. But then I'd like to ask you how you can deal with such things, since it probably happened to you a lot, as you're "replacing" someone else.
I'm a singer myself, and I'm sometimes so scared that people might not like me or my voice (even worse!). So even if I have the abilities to sing very well and loud alone, when I'm around people my voice gets sort of "numb", it's lower, less good...I'm desperate about it even though it gets a bit better with my band. I’m so afraid it could make my dream impossible. Indeed, singing in a band means the world to me. I know I’m still young (I’m 21), and still a “beginner” but I know my voice is good. I just seem to forget it when people are watching me.
So if you have any advice for me, if you could post something on your blog about it or reply to me personally, it would be awesome.
I really admire how self assured you are (or look at least), and I realise that even though I wanted so bad to sing in Nightwish, I couldn’t have made it. You’re a strong person.
Many greets and respects
H
@ waldemar: speak for yourself and don't generalise just to be able to hide behind your own opinion. As far as we know no survey was ever held =)
ReplyDeleteI can only really echo what others have said. Here we have an example of someone who clearly is immensely immature and lacking in anything better to do. It was very rude and not at all the way to get a point across (not that there was one in that comment, just idiotic ranting.)
ReplyDeleteI think trolls like this are best ignored, they say these things to get a reaction and giving them one just feeds their bad behaviour.
Fortunately you have plenty of fans who love you and what you are doing with Nightwish. Keep up the good work and don't change <3
xxx
Hello hello beautiful
ReplyDeletefirstly sorry, my english is bad (but I'm French)
ok
Before, I was like this stupid boy, I thought some nasty things about you (Tarja is better, she mustn't sings in THIS band, she sings bad...) sorry for that, it's shallow...
Yes Tarja is my favourite metal singer and no one can replace her in my heart, but after many searches on the net to choose live gigs on youtube or live MP3 from nightwish and you, I must face facts that YOU are the only one who can replace her within Nightwish...
Because you are RADICALLY different than Tarja and it's a rebirth for the band and also because you are a very nice and cute frontwoman (and certainly a woman) like some other bands might be have...
Now, I'm fan of you, I love you, I think you sing really good and you are a gentle woman...
hey guy, keep your fucking stupid thoughts for you...
I hope too see you on stage one day Anette...
Believe in you dear lady...
Love you so much
"Bisous de France"
Remember Anette, someone can only make you feel inferior if you let them.
ReplyDeleteYou do an amazing job of dealing with people like her every day, and the awful negativity they exude.
I, personally, love reading your blog, and check it everyday when i get the chance.
I've tried the food ideas you've posted, and even shopped online at some of the stores you've mentioned. ( and I was MORE than happy with everything, Thank you!)
I love it when you post the scenic pictures of all the different countries you get to visit. ( I've never left America! :( )
I think your blog is a good way to follow a favorite performer, and get to know them better, with out being stalkerish.
Keep doing what you are doing, becasue thats why your fans love you.
Much love from America
~Akoro. :)
Hi Annete!
ReplyDeleteJust don't pay attention to someone like her.
Some people need attention and are trying to get it on this stupid way..
And you are so right, if someone don't like you.. just listen to the old albums! But if I don't like someone, I won't take the time to read that persons blog..
Well, Have a great evening!
Hugs,
Danielle
Hello Anette!
ReplyDeleteI think it's okay if people don't like you. Because you can't be everybody's favourite, no-one can't. People have different "taste".
But commenting like that in here, in you blog, is very stupid! This person can listen the old albums or whatever she wants but she doesn't have to comment here like that.
I hope you don't feel bad about that comment. Don't care about those guys. I hope you know that there's so many people who support you and love your voice and your blog. =)
Anette
ReplyDeleteThe best way to answer is, in my opinion, to give those people lots of loooveeeee like this
<3<3<3<3 Nikola/Vera I love you soooooo muchhhhhhhhh toooooo<3<3<3<3<3<3<3
because now this person is happy to have a special message for him/her on your blog ^^
you've made his/her day !
Hey Anette!
ReplyDeleteFirstly, let me just say that for every ex-fan who "hates" you, there are hundreds of real fans who love you! I'll admit i was unsure whether i'd like the new nightwish, but a real fan wouldn't abandon their favourite band just because of a new singer. I've only recently started following your blog and im hooked! so despite what that childish, petty-minded, ignorant person thinks, lots of people like to know what you're up to, where you shop, what you like to eat etc etc. and to be honest, people who try and insult you and provoke you via your own blog (or in any way for that matter) really dont deserve the time of day from you.
you're an amazing singer, you're beautiful and you have incredible style, so don't let anyone tell you otherwise. They're just jealous! = D
Much love, and best wishes!
I'm slightly weirded out that people actually have the time on their hands to make posts like that. It's kind of scary. Don't worry, we're not all like that. I wish people could just be nice to each other for a change, but it seems that there will always be someone rebelling against the idea of peace.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs for Nettie, don't bother paying any attention to them
Hi Anette
ReplyDeletei am agree with you and the other blog readers..i must say i was one of the persons who hated you!but now i really reaaaally like you sometimes we are a little bit inmature and i guess its because we miss the person who was before you( at least is what happend to me ) and i regret now! im happy cuz i can still listen to Tarja and as well Nightwish..both parts are happy with their decision so people have to get over it already its been like 4 years IT IS ENOUGH TIME TO GET OVER IT!!. You dont have poor voice its very powerfull and Tarja and you are different persons who have learn what you like those things are different.So keep rocking as you always do! and thanks for having this blog not many rockstars have it,many thanks for sharing part of your life with us ;)
A really big hug from Venezuela!
I could put it as shortly as "fuck you Vera" or something, but I'd rather put it in another way, just as short, like "Get a brain".
ReplyDeleteDo you really think you get ANYTHING else but making yourself look like a fool? Anyway.
Anette, hope you're gonna mention the concert in Sibiu last night in another blog entry, cause I've got SOOOO many things to tell you.
Let me start with THANK YOU.
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteI like reading your blog and it's always nice to see what you have to share with us. :-) Those stupid childish people should go cry in their mother's arms and leave you alone. If they don't like you, why do they then read your blog? Seems they are very interested in your life, or do they just have too much time? Stupid kids, their acting is just annoying.
I hope you won't let it get you that much, you are the best singer that Nightwish could ever happen! I like your singing, your clothes style, your thoughts and so on, you are just another inspiring idol for me and that's something wonderful!
Take good care! *a big hug for you*
Hi there :)
ReplyDeleteThere will be always people like that who will try to break you down, but anyway this kind of person is not important....i feel pity for this kinda person... so angry, so frustated with a boring life and without education..pffff...
I know that sucks but if i may just focuse on those who love and respect you :)
Have a nice evening take care <3 <3
Good answer Anette.
ReplyDeleteif that ignorant don't like the band, she (or he) have a lot of options. So, don't bother reading that crap or waste your time writing an answer for that stupid and pathetic people who can't face the future and prefer the past...Damn coward! Is too easy send bullshit behind a PC.
Anyway...love and hugs for you from Bolivia!
your "groupie" Andrés :D
God natt!
;)
Pffff,we had enough of this already :(
ReplyDeleteAnd as for who is the attention seeking whore we all know where to point our fingers :)
Childish? Why is it childish to speak our mind?
ReplyDeleteIn fact, she's right. You did ruin NW, which was my first big passion. BUT, I do not blame you. I agree that you can't sing, all you do is dance and fuck the old songs up. Your outfits are HILARIOUS. But I don't hate you. I'm not even close to hating you.
I hate Tuomas, for being such an asshole. and I hate the other guys for agreeing with Tarja's firing. Anyway, it's their loss.
You just sent a demo tape and got chosen. Good for you! Seriously. Not so good for the guys.
I mean, you'll probably get richer and all, because industrial music will get you more fans. more fans means more money. But you all put an end on the most beautiful thing the world as ever seen - old era NW, of course. shame on the guys.
Anette, I just wanted to ask you a few things.
Well, my question to you is quite simple. What do you think about singing ‘Tarja’s’ songs? Your high notes are not as high as hers, so is that the reason you loose your voice quite often? I mean, Nightwish are really powerful. Their songs are LITERALLY breathtaking, it has to be tough :o I see for myself, whenever I sing them.
Anyway, wouldn’t you rather sing new era’s songs only? You do much better with ‘your’ songs. Well, the guys chose you for some reason.
Another question. Some people say you’re in only for the money, that you didn’t even know NW till you heard they were looking for a new leadsinger. Is it true? Did you join them to boost your career and nothing else?! What makes me think about it, is that you changed a lot since you left Alyson Avenue – at least physically. The clothes you wear, the long black hair (which is different now, already xD). Is that really you? Or is it what people expect from you, since you sing in a metal band?
I'm trying really hard to get over Tarja's firing. But, as I said, NO HARD FEELINGS ABOUT YOU. I just don't relate to your singing, that's it.
Good luck.
I love your blog,because many fans want to know how was your day and what you think. ! Ignore the idiots ... ;D
ReplyDeletesorry for my English,

Yo, sorry for posting twice, I'd just like to point out to everyone here that this is only an example of a big problem growing in the world. I've got no problem with someone who doesn't like Anette's voice, I personally love it but she/he's entitled to their own opinion. However, putting said opinion across in such an offensive way is what's not right. When posting/saying your own opinion, remember you're entitled to it but to put it across in a respectful way. It's nothing to do with Anette or Nightwish, it's common sense and the basic principles of respect and being nice to each other.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs and best wishes from England

YOU ARE THE BEST TO NIGHTWISH!!

Hi nettie,
ReplyDeleteI'm so very sorry for the comment that you have received.
I give only one advice: don't bother them, don't reply to them!
Go to your way with your thoughs and you'll be alright.
That comments isn't a constructive critique.
Good luck for all and I want to say that your blog is fantastic.

Wish the retards would stay on Youtube.
ReplyDeleteStarBreaker:
ReplyDeleteTarja is past .... and if you do not like the Annet not lose your time talking about the Nightwish ... and Tuomas is the best man in the world!
What a rude person. To spend their time giving themselves hernias by getting that angry seems a little pitiful to me!
ReplyDeleteIgnore losers like that, there are plenty of people around who love and respect you, as all these comments prove! xxx
Hello, ur were awsome. Romania loves u. I've posted some pics with u in my blog at ArtMania
ReplyDeleteUr the great.
StarBreaker,
ReplyDelete1.- Nightwish were never breathtaking or the best thing of the World, it wasn't during the old era, it isn't now. It is generic music and very simple compositions to the lazy ear.
2.- During 2007, I spent me time advocating on Anette's side. Got tired of doing so indeed, but I saw this kind of speeches every day, in every video, everywhere. 2 years 'ave passed and I still don't get why people spend their time justifying their thoughts. I much rather ignore the bands that I don't like anymore, NW, Tristania, Sirenia, etc. More time for me.
And to the mate who provoked all this. If Anette fans like this blog, you are no to decide whether she should 'ave a blog or not.
hm...tell the truth..if somebody thinks the blog is personal.oMG.. this is juice of the blog!! and i think it's soo good..because it brings up people fans nad the band..i mean in there lot of band do blog or forum and in the end they know each other the memebers of the band and the fans. and the member of the band won't close to the world...and of course we know what you do a day..:D and i like when you tell something to your day..
ReplyDeleteand secondly..if you( nikola) think it's personal and you don't care about it...why do you read the blog..? i don't understand these people..
and anette i hope you won't be desperated...we like read your blog and don't care for her...
kisss
sweetie:)
PS..:sorry if i wasn't understandable...:S
Well I think that the persons who dosen't like you Anette shall stop listen to NW....
ReplyDeleteWhat I read and heard it was Tarjas own mistake that she have to left NW
At first I think the songs not were that good with your voice, but now I love them.
So the Boy's take a good choice when they choose you :)
Sorry for my english
Jag tycker att de som inte tycker om dej Anette ska sluta lyssna på NW
Vad jag läst och hört så var det Tarjas egna fel att hon fick sluta i NW
I början tyckte även inte jag att låtarna var lika bra med din röst men nu gillar jag dom.
Så jag tycker att killarna gjorde ett bra val när de valde dej :)
One day, I was reading the comments in this blog and, then, I thought about something : no one of those stupid persons that have nothing else to do than writing "Anette is shit" on YouTube came here to write something similar. Now, it happened, and I'm pretty sure that this "Nikola/Vera" thinks that, thanks to him, the anti-Anette reached another goal. Yes, they did... They reached the first place in the stupidity contest...
ReplyDeleteWhat he said is just illogic. If he thinks that because of you, Nightwish is not Nightwish anymore, he should not say that it's your fault, but the other bandmembers fault. And his way of saying that "you ruined a band he use to love" show that he just want to tear you down, like the others. Why ? I will never understand... Hatred, jealousy... I will never understand why they just post this everyday, on every website talking about Nightwish... Damned, Tarja is gone in 2005, Anette is here since 2007, we are in 2009 ! Are they not tired at all of ALL THIS ? I just can't understand...
So, as the other commentors said, if I can tell you something, it's just that you should not answer those comments. Your higher than all those people.
I'm very sorry that those stupid comments hurts you sometimes, but... Well... Your a part of Nightwish now, for sure, and your fucking very happier than all of those idiots that just can't go on since october 2005 or may 2007, I don't know (and I don't care).
So... Show us your clothes, your salads, your tea, your nails color, your city ; tell us about your new balcony door, your thai-food preparation, your allergy problems, your new tatoos, your shopping days. I care about this. " ;=) "
Anette,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the fact that you have a blog at all. In my eyes, it makes you less of a celebrity and more of a real person. You give encouragement and advice, you also post mistakes that you've made, and I absoloutly applaud you for it. I absouloutly think that Tuomas and the guys made the right choice when they chose you as singer... You fit the kindness that is inherant in Nightwish, which is something that I fell in love with. You are a very beautiful woman inside AND out, with a very warm heart.
Hugs and all my love,
Falyssa
Hi Anette,
ReplyDeleteI check your blog regulary and I really enjoy your posts. I just want you to know that i really like your work in Nightwish and that you have a beautyfull voice. And you seem to be a very normal and warm person. So it's not nice to read comments from people that hate you. People like that have problems with themselves and you should not be bothered.
Fortunatly there are much more people that like you and you bring them joy, that's what counts!
Dear Anette,
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog. It's something I check each day now, along with my favourite webcomics. It's nice to see all these little interesting things about your life.
The person who asked why you post all these things if you are so private - don't they understand that you haven't gone into the really private things, like your relationships? There are things you can chat about with everyone, including your fans, but you keep the personal sphere very hidden and close to your heart. I think you strike a great balance between creating more closeness between your fans and yourself by giving us the chance to know you better, but not compromising the privacy of your son or your boyfriend and still keeping that side of your life away from the flashing cameras.
In general, I think the best thing to do with comments from people like Nikola/Vera is just to delete them without response. You don't owe any explanation to people who don't make any effort to see your point of view. Nothing should be all give or all take - so, when someone isn't prepared to give at all, don't accomodate them. Personally, I've had some problems with people who couldn't get out of a negative perspective and insisted on throwing their negativity at me, and although sometimes it seems like the right thing to do is to present a reasoned argument and try to persuade them, the truth is that most people who would say such negative things simply aren't prepared to give due consideration to anything you might say. So it really isn't worth your time, effort, or emotion. Just my opinion.
Hugs,
~~~Siobhán
Estelindis~~~
I'm sad you get to read some comments like this.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm always wondering, when see something like that somewhere, why they need to say those stupid things? You don't like a person so don't watch his/her videos, don't listen to his/her music, AND, like you said, if don't have anything good to share then keep your mouth shut.
I doubt Nikola/Vera have the courage to say it on your face, wich would be very disrespectful, but that's why they do it here, you can't see their faces :\
And they don't accept the fact that the band choose you, so you're good, other way they'd never do it.
I only hope you hold on us, your true fans who wishes the best for you Nettie and love you for what you are. We're here anytime you need :)
Hugs from Brazil!
Mônica
What a looser...
ReplyDeleteStarBreaker, you're as loathsome as mentioned above one... Why is it childish? Because NOBODY asked you to come here and post. And NOBODY here is interested in such opinion as yours. You act like you're a smart person, but really you look like envious, diffident child, curing the comlexes by offending people who succeed in life.
ReplyDeleteYour comment wasn't polite in any way. f you're full of shit so much, evacuate somewhere else, please!
Ignore them Anette
ReplyDeletepeople like that aint worth the time replying too.
I love reading the posts you write , it gives a brilliant insight into the life of a famous singer
Thank you for letting us into Anette-World :)
Keep rocking and smiling!
Amy
Anette,
ReplyDeleteI've been reading all your posts for a while but never thought of any comments to make, but reading this person's comment made me really angry... I've been cursing her/him outloud for a while now...
How come some few childish people just don't get that you're the new singer? I love the band as it is now, just as i loved before...probably even more! Did she sing well? Yeah, she did... But you sing so well too! I love your voice, love how Nightwish is now. Tarja was fired because she wasn't the same as when the guys met her. This change was NECESSARY, you brought Nightwish BACK! All the true fans know that! So don't ever think you don't have fans, you have a HUGE amount of them, and just ignore this childish comments made by people that come here just to say bad stuff about you... Ignore it because they're so not true, your voice is beautiful, you are too, your clothes are amazing! If someone doesn't like how the band is now, they should just stop listening to it! Those disrespectful kind of fans will not be missed, since Nightwish has millions and millions of other fans that respect the band and love it as it is right now. Don't you dare to change for those close-minded "fans", you're great as you are right now...
Wish you the best,
Clara
P.S: I was at the Nightwish show in Manaus (Brazil)
IT WAS PERFECT!
P.S2: My friend Veronica had the same reaction to this, she cursed outloud as well. She wishes you the very best.
You know...I really don't know if a person like this is envy or jealousy or just sad.
ReplyDeleteBut I do believe that is a case of send him/her to a mental hospital, because normal people don't do this kind of things. It must be a sick person...
Anette to these people I think you should give the most painful treatment, indifference.
No other thing can be more painful to any person than indifference, and this is exactly what these people deserve.
Showing no respect for anybody, including the guys that are still in the band, this person only deserves nothing.
Hope you had a wonderful gig Anette
Love
Cyntia
Oh, just ignore this kind of things. There will always be people who won't like you, but there will definetly be loads of people who love you :) and that's all that matters, I think. Some people just have too much time to philosophize. =)
ReplyDeletehugs.
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteOh my God,this sounds awful.I'm completely sick of this close-minded people who want only attention and write disrespectful comments.It's already old now...If they don't like you and Dark Passioon Play they should stick to the old albums and leave you alone.
Just an advice:Don't pay attention to them!
Hope you will feel better soon,Nettie!
Hugs And Kisses,
Cristina
Sorry for posting AGAIN, but I've just heard you singing Ever Dream in Romania on YouTube. I've always had a love/hate relationship with the song - I can't relate to the lyrics, but the music touches something deep within me. Also, I love the studio version, but for me, however amazing the performance is, and whoever's singing it, it doesn't have the same effect on me when it's played live.
ReplyDeleteUntil now.
This version was incredible. So, thank you!
Hi Anette,
ReplyDeletethis disrespectful comment by "Vera" (or whatever her/his name might be) really made me angry. I read your weblog on a regular basis, and like most of your entries. I have a blog myself. Whenever I find a comment like this, I simply delete it. I share the opinion of Estelindis and many other comment writers above:: you should do the same. Delete them without any response.
Best wishes from Darmstadt/Germany,
Volkmar
Hej!
ReplyDeleteIt's a simple thing: if you don't like somebody or hate him/her don't listening to and don't writing or reading about him/her. Unfortunately people doesn't keep it and say the same thing again and again... poor man!
By the way...
we love you Anette! =)
take care
xxx
Sara
p.s. greetings from Hungary ;)
Anette, you shouldn't care about people that use your blog to insult you, they just don't have nothing to do with their lives ;), so they insult people to feel better about themselves, well they're just loosers :D
ReplyDeleteBut that's what I really like about you, you're in an international, and very famous metal band and yet, you care, you really care about what your fans think about you, that is such a beutifull thing :).
hugs and kisses from Brazil
p.s: Last time you came to brazil you didn't came to Porto Alegre because there were already an Offspring concert in the same date :(, please pass by Porto Alegre next time :D
Anette I love you so much.... this people don't deserve your attention. you are a great singer, and this is all.
ReplyDeletea kiss.
Anette! Rise above those ignorant people and continue being your sweet, inspiring self! Some people just have no class or manners... that was so disrespectful of her to leave you such an outlandish comment.
ReplyDeleteKeep being wonderful!
xx Marz
SUCCESS CAUSES ENVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't give importante to these Losers.
Like me, many people became fans of Nightwish because of you.
You have a beautifull and sweet voice and for me, the more important is, you have a wonderfull soul. Everyone sees that.
Trust in your true fans. You make our lives better, always remember that.
With love,
Sarah, São Paulo - Brazil.
WE LOVE YOU ANETTE!
ReplyDeleteYou shouldn't care about what this stupid people said to you. Keep doing what you do the best! =)
Kisses from Brasil.
You mad ein Romania...sensation... Ur great. Good job.
ReplyDeleteWhy does she even bother to read your blog, surf the web for your pictures and stuff, and even take the time to COMMENT, when she says she don't care about you?? I'm schocked that people does this. If it's something I don't like, I do not go around searching for it. I stay away and don't care. Weird people in this world, for sure.
ReplyDeleteI really like that you put these posts in your blog to embarrass the author. Maybe this person can see how wasted this was.
Have a really joyful summer!
~hugs from Norway
Don't feed the trolls, there's no reasoning with some people, just delete there posts and ignore them, it's not worth getting worked up over such idiocy. I hope you are feeling fine though.
ReplyDelete-Brian
Hey Anette! =)
ReplyDeleteDon´t care about this stupid person said!
This is just a people that want to be famous with stupid words!
The important is that you have many fans around the world that really love you and this won´t change because of a stupid comment!
Just remember that you have many trully fans and they´ll EVER been with you!!!
I love you very much!
Many kisses!
(L)
You go Anette!!!!! :D Don't listen to anyone who says you can't sing--YOU ARE AN AMAZING SINGER!!!!! You have an absolutely wonderful voice, and I know that I, and many others, love your blog! :D That person was very immature and stupid, and I think you did the best thing in that situation. :) You are a very strong person, and the boys are very lucky to have you!!! ^_^
ReplyDeleteKeep on singing!
-Allie
Hi! It is me again =)
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say Good Night and Sweet dreams.
P.S. Do not read thoose rude comments about you. They are just jealous and they do not know anythyng exept wishing to hurt someone.
Anette , you are great , you have beautiful voice ,love of your family.
I love you , WE , Croatian fans love you!
Kiss
Ena
hey Anette
ReplyDeleteyou see... you got lots of fans and we support you all =D don't really care for nikola/vera...
hugs =D
Haha, vilken knäppgök alltså! Det finns såna verkligen överallt :P
ReplyDelete"Öppna en shop för idiotiska klänningar" - det fick mig att skratta rakt ut.
Vem kommer ens på att skriva nåt sånt?
Jag gillar dina kläder för det mesta ;)
Men alltså... bara en sak. Det är modigt att du vågar konfrontera problemet, men i fortsättningen hade jag om jag varit i dina kläder ignorerat denna person. Hon/han som skrivit verkar ha ett antal tomtar på loftet och du ger bara personen exakt vad den vill ha genom att svara.
Du gör som du själv vill så klart, men du vet nog bäst själv hur infekterat ämnet (om Tarja, sparkandet av henne, ditt tillsättande) är. Folk pratar och bråkar om det fortfarande.
Det är tråkigt (och oacepptabelt) att du hamnat mitt emellan, men genom att svara på sånt här, spär du bara på idioternas skvaller kvarn ännu mer.
Bara ett råd. :)
Stay strong ;)
I think everyone has pretty much said it all. I'm always one of the last to comment. :D
ReplyDeleteI think this "Vera" will hopefully be put to shame with all of the comments here that are supporting you. Some people enjoy stirring things up with unnecessary comments that are malicious. Just know that you are a wonderful person who have many people who love and support you!! *hugs and kisses*
Anonyme-are you another pathetic sheep following in Vera's shoes?
ReplyDeleteI must say it is extremely pathetic that people join a blog just to insult someone. Really their stupidity is astounding. And I know that people believe these posters should be ignored, but I see nothing wrong with denouncing their actions as well.
Anette haters have nothing to do tonight...
ReplyDeleteJust get a life guys!
Why are you wasting your time here If you don't like Anette ?
I think you have more things really important to do, don't you ?
Anette, you must be so fustrated with these idiots! Kudos for pointing out some home truths to this person - if they truly don't care for you or new NW, then they should just leave both alone and get involved with something more interesting. Its actually these types of people who are 'ruining' NW, making all 'Tarja' fans seem psychotically obsessed.
ReplyDeleteDon't let it get to you and never rise to it (I'm sure you won't) you're the big person with a much more exciting life!
FYI You are a fantastic singer! Ur fans know this, NW lads know this, and you know this! Ur awesome!
Dear Anette,
ReplyDeleteWe all, i mean the ones that are really happy to see your actual life and happy to hear about your feelings about various things;
we all trying to make this kind of people understand that a band is something that you should be happy to be a member, love to product with, make happy thousands of fans (if they are exist like NW) with various songs and shows.
These are such people that don't know how to work with other people, these are the ones that have no idea being a member of something and keep working to carry it higher.
The ones who have no idea of the words group','equip','band','FRIENDSHIP'.
On the internet; forums, video channels, blogs, people still keep commenting about the past and the present.It is something that humankind can't get over : commenting or the basic term of these things 'making gossips'.
People are free to say or share their feelings about public and internet is the biggest way to do this.But some people can use this in a bad way, think that they can comment however they want, without respect.
I'm sure that many people here (with exceptions as we can see) know that NW is a band, a band we love since we've heard about it.We love this band because the good products it gives, the good friendship they are trying to keep, the quality of the work you bring to us.
It is impossible to create such good things with unhappy members of a group but some people are unable to understand this.
We all, as the ones who will love Nightwish with its decisions and in my and most of the commentors' opinion; a good decision like you; do not bother us. =) =)
You guys all good at your works and since you joined NW we are at your back with all the support we can give.
Don't let anything sadden you and don't care about these kind of people 'cause we can get rid of them. *wicked* ;)
With many hugs and love,
Gaen
WOW!! that's really all I can say about the total lack of respect and manners displayed by thei "person", if you can truly call someone who uses language like this towards someone they don't even know a person.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I am sick and tired of the "Tarja was best / Anette is better" battles. It's been several years now and this childish bickering needs to just die out once and for all. Tarja gave us 7 great years of music, now it is Anette's turn to do the same, and she is off to a terrific start! I can't wait for the next CD to be released to see what else she can bring to us vocally. :)
Oh...and I hope you find a great place at your home for your stained glass windchime I gave you in Houston. :)
to tell the truth, I was expecting smth like this... paradise cannot last forever, so sooner or later these trolls would have climbed of their caves and make a try to spoil our picnic, to say it literally)
ReplyDeleteOne example and one answer is okay, bit don't feed them and don't pay attention to them constantly, it's useless. They'll just think that by answering them You show that You care for what they say. I see such people almost everyday or for a couple of times in a week, 'cause I'm moderating the forum about Nightwish and a Nighwtish club at russian facebook. They're just incorrigible fanatics who don't want to believe the truth. And who think that their rudeness and bad manners will destroy your will to sing, to post in your blog or to share emotions and feelings with us, the fans *he-he, how nice it is to know that they're sooooo wrong*.
I think, no-one has a right to forbid anyone to have his opinion, but these people shouldn't cry and give vent to their bile here, 'cause it is simply not the proper place for such a ranting.
Hey, guys, who're soooo brave that they go here, to the blog, and tell their coarse thoughts to a beautiful and talented woman, go vent your heads! And wash your tongues before speaking about a woman who achieved a lot in her life through her will to sing and her talent, beauty and wonderful personality. At least show some respect to a woman, if you cannot afford more.
Anette,
as I see from the vids of ARTmania, everything went brilliant! Good job, guys, I'm so happy for you all ^_____^
Dream very sweet and pleasant dreams, out Angel))
Lots of hugs,
Lerren
Hi Anette
ReplyDeleteOkay, this has really pissed me off now, so I just have to comment on it. I know that it's difficult to ignore such mean comments, but just try to forget about them. But one thing you should never forget is that you're a great person, an amazing singer and you have so many fans that love you. =)
Oh, and your blog rules. :P
Love,
Katja
Nettan,
ReplyDeleteDon't listen to this stupid 'kids'!
They opinion doesn't matter ;D
You have a lot³ of fans, like me, who loves you so much *-*
Anette, you're the BEST!
We love you so much, don't ever forget s2*
Kisses from a fan from Brazil
Carol Boquembuzo
wow I see another brave person commenting in a very amusing way... what's it, a new flash-mob from Anette haters? go guys, you're so funny))
ReplyDeleteDon't listen to stupid bigots like that. You are an inspiration to me, my little sister, and my whole family! MUCH MUCH LOVE, INTEREST, AND RESPECT from Upstate New York, USA. ~ Irena
ReplyDelete^ I fell sorry seeing that a so stupid person is losing the time with this!
ReplyDeleteThis is called ENVY!
Anette (L)
Anonyme - if you have nothing nice to say, go away! Its quite clear that you are a fake account set up today for the purpose of trolling. The question is, don't you have better things to do?
ReplyDeleteJen, are you kidding? Please let him/her stay! I've never laughed so hard in my whole life!! :DDDDDD The "starving" and "forgotten wars" is the most idiotic argument I have EVER heard for a fight in my whole life :D
ReplyDeleteNow I see he has a GREAT reason to hide behind that "Anonyme" :D
We can't know how many children are dying of starvation, but one child with cowardly name "Anonyme" is dying because of lack of the brain...
ReplyDeleteAnd noone can help youuuuu...
Sorry to post again, but I just wanted to add something else.
ReplyDeleteI read this blog every day and I get happy when there is a post from you, be it about salad, clothes, music, any random experience you might have had (I especially liked hearing your thoughts about Harry Potter!!). It reminds me that you are still reachable-- a person, not just a figurehead. You have a life outside of Nightwish and you care enough about your fans to include us. You don't charge us money for this little window into your life, you even respond to our comments with your busy schedule.
I just want you to know that even though I'll probably never meet you in person, that you've inspired me just the way you are. You have impressed me time and time again with your bravery, your kindness, your enthusiasm, and your energetic live performances.
I -like- the fact that you're not an opera singer. You've proven to the world that you do not need a classical voice to entertain, to express emotion, to sing in front of over 70,000 people-- and you've given me hope for my own musical experiences. You've helped me to accept my own voice, and to just go for it and believe in myself!
So, thank you Anette, for being yourself, a kick-ass front woman, a kind hearted person, humble, happy, enthusiastic, a great role model, and for helping me become a stronger individual and recognizing that music is music regardless of the genre, style, or complexity it has.
Don't stop being you because some people are mean. I think I can speak for some people on this blog when I say that YOU mean a lot to all of US.
Take care and stay strong,
Irena =]
To Anonyme:
ReplyDeletePLEASE, stop posting so many stupid comments.
To Anonyme:
ReplyDeleteyou begin to become annoying.You don't do yourself a favor by doing this;you even destroy any kind of credibility or point.You hide the point behind that comments,because people now focus on your persistence to post repeated comments instead of focusing on your point.
I disagree with StarBreaker..
ReplyDeleteI actually appreciate your versions of songs, and sometimes even like them better than the originals! I don't understand how fans can get so stuck in these boxes they create for themselves.. In the end, it doesn't really matter, everyone is entitled to their opinions. But, I am sure I speak for many when I say I LOVE your take on a lot of old era NW songs. (Creek Mary's Blood, Romanticide..to name a few!) I saw you guys play in the US in '08, and '09, and I could tell a huge difference in your voice! You seem to be finding your place within an already well established group and I give you MANY props for that, I don't know if anyone else really could have done it. :)
Love,
Desi from Missouri, US (hope to see you sooner than later!)
PS - I read your blog every day and it is truly amazing you take the time out of your day(s) to let us know what's going on!
Your amazing anette. Way to stand up for yourself. Just so ya know for every mean post that is made you still have 100 more positive people behind you. I hope they leave you alone now they have shared their feelings rudely and you have shared your feelings about them in the nicest posible way. Maybe they can finaly move on cause if they don't like you why the hell are they here?
ReplyDeleteokaaay...HEP! HEP! :D
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe this debate is still going after all this time has passed. I mean, to say that Anette is at fault for Tarja being fired is ridiculous; if people feel the need to blame someone, well blamed the boys and Tarja for their mistakes. Anette simply heard they were looking for a singer, sent a demo and she got chosen by the boys, as simple as that.
ReplyDeleteI started listening to Nightwish, well because of the combination between Tarja's voice and the music, but also because of the lyrics. Then they changed the singer and I have to say I like it too; in other words, I'm a fan of Nightwish, plain and simple (although I have to admit I'm glad for Anette cause now I can understand the lyrics much better without having to read the booklet). For those who preferred the old era, well you have the old cd's which you can listen anytime you want and you also have Tarja's music as a solo artist.
Sadly this debate is like the one for the Van Halen singer on who's better: David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar?
Don't worry Anette, keep doing what you are doing, don't change, just remember that for each person that don't like you, you have a whole lot that do (me included) I know it's hard cause you're not made of stone, but I know you will come out successfully.
Hugs,
Zamarie
Sorry for the double post, but I forgot to mention that I love your blog and the photos and things you write in here; I read it everyday. Like someone else commented here, it makes you feel less a celebrity, that you are a normal person and do other things outside the band. I love learning about other places and their culture, so the pics you post of were you live and such are great; now more than ever I want to make my dream come true and go to Scandinavia :o)
ReplyDeleteHugs,

uuuuuuuuf!! I hope you rest after to read so many lines !!! =)
ReplyDeleteI´m not going to write a large text just I wanna say you WE LOVE YOU and that is really important!! Nightwish (Jukka, Tuomas, Emppu, Marco and you) are very very good musician as a person and that we really apreciatte!! and I think (I know I´m not the only one) you helped to the to the band to be the same again... I know and I see you save the band!! with all their letters!! I like and you know your voice is really, really nice, beautiful and sweet =)as a person you are so much better!! ^^
The people without "life" to do this kind of thing really sucks! =)
Love you Nettie =) FOREVER!!
Haha wow that person must be craaaaaaazy to think that you, Anette, are a whore. Which you definitely are not.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I'd just ignore the person. But if it was something like that, I too might reply. But sometimes it is not the smartest thing to do. I don't see why people say such cruel things about people, its sad :( You are a very beautiful and kind person, and there is nothing wrong with your voice, it really is unique and special ;D And best wishes for future gigs :D
Who is the real stupid guy in the story? -_-
ReplyDeleteI really hope this comment didn't hurt you too much; such an opinion, as you said, can be shared somewhere else but not here, and above all not with such words... You never did anything wrong, why people can get so disrespectful with someone else?...
And anyway, whoever the band had chosen, the former singer is gone now, so why is he showing you as if you were the responsible of it all?
To me, you gave new energy and more pure emotions to the band! I'll never regret the band's choice, they were so right!!
Have a lovely day, Miss Anette :)

Yayyy, finally my internet connection is back ;)
ReplyDeleteStarBreaker, I'd like to say something.
I don't think speaking one's mind is childish but the way Nikola/Vera did it, is immature. You don't have to like anyone but do you really think it's sophisticated to come and bash someone? Call her very rude names?
It's not. That's something one should leave behind soon after kindergarden, don't you think?
More grown up people should be able to deal with emotions of sadness, anger, disappointment and so on.
Let's face it; this isn't about Anette at all. This is about Nikola's (and yours) dependency over (false) images of a pure perfection. You fail to accept that NW-members are humans and their story isn't a phenomenal fairytale of companionship and a beautiful world. The cruel reality smashed your image but deep in your heart you still cling to it; this is why you are still so full of frustration and anger.
Those old enough or otherwise passed that phase of mental growth don't linger in sorrow after four freaking years. They say, "OK, I prefer Tarja's singing. I feel a little sad they don't play together anymore" and that's it. No hatred nor need to expose it in public.
And you know, the only people who have the right to say "this song should be sung this way", "this kind of voice suits our music" are Nightwish themselves. They created it, they heard it in their heads long before you heard it in your copy of the album. They have put small pieces of their souls to the songs, so how on earth can you say you know their songs better than them?
Give them some freakin' respect, will you. All of them.
Nightwish hasn't gone anywhere nor has it been ruined. Even if NW stopped releasing albums but kept playing music in a basement, NW still existed if they decided so.
Just come out from your egocentric bubble and realize that Nightwish are independent human beings, bunch of people you don't even know personally. They eat food and buy toilet paper all by themselves. They aren't part of you and their state doesn't depend on your opinion.
Neither do Anette's skills as a singer. You can like her singing or not but one's skills in anything aren't actually a matter of opinion. If something can be taught or learnt, the way to verify one's capability is based on facts - not opinions. "She can't sing" is against the facts.
Finally, I know it's easy to throw bad words at someone in internet and exaggarate your feelings to the maximum. Just try to remember that the person you aim those words at is a real one.
Think him/her as one, not only Anette but everyone you're about to bash. Think really hard. They've had childhoos, people who love and trust them, people they love and cherish. Joys, fears, sorrows. If you still feel like the person in the other end of web is some robot with no feelings and you can freely treat her any way you like, I suggest you close the internet immediately and call your shrink 'cause the only heartless person then would be you. And I have to say I'm disgusted with people like that, as much as I try to understand them too.
The exact word is "Respect"... if you dont appreciate Anette, go listen to other music, but respect the people around you... Hatred towards others is a stupid thing in this world.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion,Anette is doing a great job in the band ;-) i really love new Nightwish and their spirit.
I hope that you can to understand my imperfect english :P
Have a nice day
OMG! o_O
ReplyDeleteI really don't understand people like Vera/Nikola. They just make me sick! Bleee...
Anette, you are amazing person with big heart and we - true - fans love you sooooooo much!!!
You should ignore these people, they are not worth of your time!
Hugs and kisses!

Hey maybe it's uninteresting fo you but it reminds me a bit of what I also often see on youtube... there are so many people who say to german videos "Oh the Nazi sons again" or "Germany go and die" And many many ohter things, and it makes me sad to hear bad things about my homecountry and also to hear bad things about you ( i don't know if you can compare these two things). You are who you are and you never should change that. And don't mind about those who think you can't sing, 'cause you can, I think there are just jealous or think that it is your fault that Tarja gone, or whatever I don't know...
ReplyDeleteYou're the best and you will ever be...
With many love, Leonie
there are people who really have nothing else to do than to speak ill of people.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad ...
Do not listen Anette
