Hard choice between Wishmaster and Oceanborn for me, but I went with Wishmaster.

'Oceanborn' is by far their most technical and experimental album, and with vocals from the former Finntroll vocalist, I think it's a great album! Though I almost voted (gaffel), just because You added that option.  |

No really, what's that vocalist called then? the Finntroll guy?

Tapio Wilska, though he was fired earlier this spring, so he's not in Finntroll anymore.

I don't really liekd what I heard of Oceanborn What did you hear then? Cause you should really check out songs like Moondance, Stargazers, Gethsemane, Sacrament of Wilderness.. those are prob the best NW songs ever.. imo anyway ^^ |

Actually I've only listened to the last 2 albums of Nightwish, so my vote goes to 'Once'

Sleeping Sun and Walking in the Air are maybe the bad exapmles of what Oceanborn is like ^^ I mean, they're good songs but not exactly powerful..
And the two first songs on the album are Stargazers and Gethsemane I think.. so two of the best imo ^^

I think the best songs of 'Oceanborn' are 'Pharaoh sails to Orion', 'Devil and the deep dark ocean' and 'Moondance', and I recommend You, miss Angellore, to check them out.

What can i say... Oceanborn is perfection
(for Nightwish, that is)

Musically, 'Oceanborn' might be as close to perfection as Nightwish ever will be. Though, what the album lacks, I think, is good female vocals. I don't think Tarja is a very good singer, both because of her evident speech problem (that girl just can't speak english!) and because of her use of her voice. And that's not only me, actually, I've played Nightwish records to some classically trained (opera) singers, and they all agree there is something wrong with her voice.
Otherwise, the album is great.

For me her best singing is on Wishmaster, even if a lot of other things are better on Oceanborn. I'm not sure I really have a favourite out of those to, which ever one I happen to be listening to at the time, I guess |
