Re: Nightwish Storytime DVD
While the show itself is amazing - I have a hard time with Floor screaming lots of her parts vs singing them ....... I know they don't want her to sound like Tarja, but I think screaming those operatic parts, while admirable, just tend to grate on me after awhile, and I love Floor's voice ....... If...

Re: Avalanch - The Secret
