Can’t wait to get this album!

Sounds like something cool to come, she’s got awesome voice and the scorpions just rule. I’ll be sad to see them go but they’re going out with a bang. I’m sure of that.

I am going to buy it!!!!!!! On another note: Has anyone heard of Nightwish….they haven’t appeared ijn your mag for a good while…..hopefully they haven’t split up!

@ Martin

They turned into a pop band. So go buy a pop mag if you want to hear them!
(and they have a media silence.. Or at least the guys, Anette is still talking).

Anyway, this is going to be awesome! The Scorpions are an awesome band and Tarja is an awesome singer. This is going to rule.

@Janita, shut the fuck up. Just because you can’t take it that bands evolve and change members from time to time…

Anyway, this should be quite good. Never been a big fan of the Scorpions, however they’ve done some great songs, and Tarja’s voice is second to none. Looking like the Scorpions are going out with a bang!

@ Janita: 100% agreed…since they kicked Tarja out of the band, they’ve developed into just some band, they totally lost the magic they had with Tarja…
I’m not saying Anette is a bad singer, it’s just that her poppish style doesn’t fit the image Nightwish used to have…and I personally don’t like the ‘new’ Nightwish…
