Nightwish

Nightwish — ფინური სიმფონიური მეტალ-ჯგუფი, შექმნილი 1996 წელს. შექმნის პირველივე პერიოდიდან მათ ტექსტებში დომინირებადია მითოლოგიური და ფენტეზი თემატიკა. მიუხედავად იმისა, რომ იგი ხშირად გამოიყენება, ტექსტების ავტორი ტუომას ჰოლოპაინენი უკანასკნელ ალბომებზე იყენებს უფრო პირადულ ტექსტებს - სექსუალურობის, მარტოობისა და ბავშვობის შესახებ. მათი ნაწილი ასევე ეხება ჯგუფის ყოფილ ვოკალისტ ტარია ტურუნენს.

Tuomas Holopainen, Marco Hietala, Floor Jansen, Jukka Nevalainen, Troy Donockley & Emppu Vuorinen
