My friends, the tour is happily over. But very soon, we will start next shows in Europe.

There is no time really to relax since I have to keep on rehearsing for them. I will go to make a visit at my vocal coach who is most probably going to “kill” me again. Just kidding, she is just magnificent help and amazingly kind lady.

Mexican show was great and it was nice to see the reaction of the audience when they heard the new songs in our set list. I spoke with many fans and they felt that the show was a lot better than my first visit in Mexico.

As always, I learn new things about myself and from my music through my musical journey and it is very rewarding to hear good feedback from my supporters. 

Thank you Mexico! As I said during the show, I hope to see you next time with my new album.

Here is a memory of our visit in DF.

It was also wonderful to make for the first time a show in Venezuela and to see that I have an audience there! I got to meet many fans in the singing session I did in Caracas and the feeling was really overwhelming.

The local promoter got very emotional to see how people were reacting towards me and told me that he had never seen anything like that before. The devotion of the fans was unexpected for him and for some local media. Not for me ;)

The final challenge was to make 4 shows in Buenos Aires. Everything went fine and I was very happy to be able to finish the tour with these shows here. Especially the last two shows in La Trastienda were great, because the audience was seated and they could follow every little details of our show. For me it was nice to see their expressions closer and to feel their love.

I would like to do similar kind of concerts in other countries, but promoters haven’t realised yet that my fans would like it too.

Muchas gracias Buenos Aires otra vez.

I am sure the band was happy with the tour. Every one of them already flew to different destinations and in couple of weeks we’ll find each other in Budapest where we’ll start rehearsing for the summer shows. Can’t wait to get there!

Next week I will face another challenge when I am performing with local band Rata Blanca in Luna Park stadium. I have to learn few of their songs, which means I am going to sing in Spanish again!!!!! Let’s see how that goes. I am expecting to have a great time with Rata on stage. Was very nice to receive their invitation.

Let’s meet in Europe in few weeks!

    Tarja,
    I really had a great time at your concert (24th May, Bs As), it was awesome!!!! I also had a GREAT time al your concert in Chile (sept 3rd 2008), it was amazing, outstanding!! the best stuff i’ve done on a night in my life!!! wowww, after your show i felt i could die in peace :) (but i dont want to die lol, but i mean, your show completed my life).
    Your concert at Chile was so outstanding that i decided to use my savings in order to see you again (considering that you couldn’t come to chile, so my option was to go to Argentina, so i did!). Wooowww!! it was great, i would have loved to attend to La trastienda, but i coludn’t stay any longer in argentina. Hope you got my letter (i delivered it on monday 25), im sorry if it bothered in any way, it was not my intention :)

    I don’tm know if what I wrote in the guestbook is readed by Tarja so… here I go again.

    Dear Tarja:
    I love your music, your voice. I am very happy because I could go to one of your concerts here in Argentina.
    Yesterday I dreamed that you teach me singing (I love to sing, I sing Tango here) and woke up very happy. I know that may be is stupid but you see how much I appreciate you.
    I’m sorry if my english is bad but I try to do my best.
    Before knowing you music (I started to hear Nightwish -with you- for my boyfriend) I don’t really liked music. I was allways waiting a REALLY GOOD voice like Freddy Mercury or someone really great… And then, I found you…

    Thank you for sing, thank you for your happiness and love in each concert.

    You are really amazing.

    With love,
    Maia.

It was such an extremely happy moment!!! you just cant even imagine!!!
    thanks for the music
    thanks for being as you are!

  34. Valery Says:

    Hi Tarja!! Thanks for the beautiful show in Venezuela! You were SO SO amazing!!!! The best concert I ever seen! I just wanna say that ALL venezuelan fans are sorry, for the horrible behavior of the journalists in the TV SHoW Buenas noches….I hope they had tell you that they do very rude comedia…..you are a goddess and we love you, Forgive Globovision they dont know what they did….so I know they are rude with all people who they interview, but I know that you are not Venezuelan, and maybe you feel bad for that (I hope no)….By the way your Spanish is very beautiful……tu español suena muy lindo….

    te amamos!!!

  35. Florian (Almagest) Says:

    Heippähei Tarja!

    LOL at the first picture. Do I recall anyone doubting your sense of humour? :D

    I’m already greatly looking forward to see you again in Europe.

    I see that you have realised that as beloved your slower songs are, the situation of a live concert with people standing around and expecting to rock out and headbang like crazy asks for more uptempo songs.

    Your new additions are excellent choices and certainly are guaranteed to make the crowd go wild! And don’t hesitate because the songs are not your property, your personal input to them is has been quite large!

    I can also understand why you chose exactly the songs that you did, because they are particularly challenging and you have had trouble with them in the past and felt you couldn’t quite sing them.

    You can certainly rely on your teacher (Marta Blanco, right?) to help you getting the hang of the songs.

    I understand that you are alluding to the fact that vocal coaches can be quite fussy and are prone to throw their hands up in horror and scold you for supposedly “ruining your voice, girl”! Haha!

    The acoustic show looks like an amazing event! It must have been an outstanding and unusually intimate experience

    In fact, that’s the solution! Playing two consecutive evenings as a gig, one rock-oriented set for people to get pumped with only few midtempo songs and power ballads for a change of pace, and an acoustic set where you can pull out all those piano ballads and perhaps even the acoustic songs (Lappi, Angels Fall First) from the early days and the demos. Not that we ever get enough of you, but this way you could make all your fans – those preferring the uptempo songs, those preferring the ballads, and those who just love everything you do – even happier!from the early days and the demos.

    Wow, as i can read your Shows were awesome =), i laugh about your picture in the D.F. because we’ve defeat the Virus and everything is going well, but thank you for taking care of you and to give the example to all the people.

    Your shows were amazing (I’ve just seen the videos on youtube – but even they were great to see XD)

  73. goose Says:

    Hi Tarja!

    Thank you very much for the new blog and pics! Was the mouth-safety-thing a fans-present? Intersting Idea!

    Ah, you had seated concerts? That’s intersting to imagine. In one way it must give the audience in fact more possibility to listen concentrated in what you perform, but on the other hand I don’t think that I could stay on my seat for a long time if I listen to your music!!

    I am looking very forward to see you soon in Europe!!! :)

  83. Cazé Says:

    I am happy you mentionaed Brazil in a way. You said that the promotores didnt realise that we wanted another concert in the country and that’s true. At least you explained in your own way why Brazil hasn’t got your concert in 2009. That’s ok. We are all anxious to see you on the tour of the upcoming album. I LOVE you Tarja, a lot! s2
    Lots of kisses.
    Cazé.

  84. Ana Pau from Mexico City Says:

    Really Tarja your show was just INCREDIBLE, I couldn’t go to your show last year but this one was just AMAZING, really I couldn´t believe it.

    WOW your voice is so beautiful but at the same time so powerful, your voice is unique and really you are THE BEST SINGER EVER.

    I’ll be there the next time you come here with your next album. I am a little depressed because I couldn´t go to your signing session :( I really was very excited about it, but because last minute problems I couldn´t go. But I am hoping that you are going to do another signing session the next time you come, please…. really it would be an honor to have a picture with you.
    Because you were the one who inspired me to start classical singing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I would like you to see me singing one day as a way to thank you for the inspiration you gave me to start singing. Please if there is a possibility of meeting you one day… I would be delighted to meet you… please don’t forget it xD
    Lots of love,
    Ana Pau

  87. Slava Says:

    Dear Tarja!
    First of all, let me thank U for all U’ve done! For Ur music, concerts, videos and stuff.
    I’ve never met such radiant personality as U has. Bright and breazy, lovley faced, very atractive woman. Perfect enchanting voice.
    I’m charmed with Ur creative work.
    Now I’m speaking for the whole Ur fans in Novosibirsk and Siberia.
    And we are baging U to come to Novosibirsk to Russia some day. Perhaps in closer future if it is possible. Not Moscow or Sant Peterburg, Just Nova,- the capital of Sibiria, and one of the most flourishing cities of Russa.( we haven’t got walking bears along the streets :) and it pretty warm here)
    Here are thousands of fans of Urs, but the majority of them have no possibility to go abroad see Ur fascinating concerts, and all we have – Ur music and videos. Just think about it.
    Thank U rof Ur attention to this letter, and hope for soon response.
    Trully Yours
    Vyacheslav

    Dear Tarja!
    I love listened to you, your voice takes me high above the real world, gives me dreams and its “beauty is killing me” in the sweetest and the most cruel way… There are sounds which stop the time and tear out your soul. I always dreamed to hear you singing one precious song – Scarborough Fair. For many years I’ve desired this :) . Can you consider this option :D ?
