Nightwish es fundada en 1996 por el tecladista Tuomas Holopainen. Inicialmente tratando de crear música acústica, reclutó a la vocalista de ópera entrenada Tarja Turunen, pero pronto agregó instrumentación de enfocada hacia el metal con ayuda del guitarrista Emppo Vuorinen y el baterista Jukka Nevalainen. Las demos de Nightwish les dieron un contrato con el sello finlandés Spinefarm, que lanzó su álbum debut, "Angels Fall First", a fines de 1997 (apareció en el resto de Europa al año siguiente).
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

AmDmGCadd11C Born from silence, silence full of it AmDmCadd11G A perfect concert my best friend AmDmGCadd11C So much to live for, so much to die for BbGm7Dm If only my heart had a home
AmDm Sing what you can`t say GCadd11C Forget what you can`t play AmDmCadd11G Hasten to drown into beautiful eyes AmDmGCadd11C Walk within my poetry, this dying music BbGm7Dm My loveletter to nobody
FGmFC Never sigh for better world
GmBbF It`s already composed, played and told
GmFC Every thought the music I write
BbFC Everything a wish for the night
Wrote for the eclipse, wrote for the virgin Died for the beauty the one in the garden Created a kingdom, reached for the wisdom Failed in becoming a god
Never sigh...
"If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it Remember only the verse, songmaker`s cry, the one without tears For I`ve given this its strength and it has become my only strength. Comforting home, mother`s lap, chance for immortality Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew The sweet piano writing down my life"
"Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone Show me love, hold the lorn So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me I`m sorry Time will tell this bitter farewell I live no more to shame nor me nor you
And you... I wish I didn`t feel for you anymore..."
