Hi! I´ve been just fine, thank you.
First of all, congratulations on Shine. It's a really interesting release! beautiful voice! you hear so perfect! such has been the acceptance of the album?
- I haven't seen any sales yet so I don't know but reviews have been really good and the fans response have been really good.
Tell us a little about the recording of this great album? had problems in producing it?
- No, it was a very easy process. We wrote the songs in 2009 in some intense weeks and then me and Stefan Örn and his team produced it and mixed it last autumn.
Which was the main idea behind this album? who were the producers or collaborators
- I made this album while I was still in Nightwish and therefore I didn't want it to be a metal album at all, since I didn't want to compete with my own band. Then when we were gonna release it I did some more songs but these 10 were to good to not release and therefore this album is a bit more pop-rock than what I´ve done before. I produced it together with Stefan Örn and we had some great mixing guys to mix the album such as Nicklas Flykt (Robin).
What are your inspirations for writing the lyrics?
- My life and life in general mostly.
The cover of your album is amazing! I loved it! you look free, renewed! That is actually what you trasmites us?
- Thanks=) Yes, I wanted a "light" and bright cover. No dark clothes, all white and uplifting since SHINE is about HOPE, LOVE and looking ahead.
The official video for 'Lies', is excellent, you look cheerful! your beautiful voice! I see more satisfied! something that is yours, it was hard to record there?
- Lies is such a great song for me. The lyrics are about when a long relationship ends and how hard that can be, how you promised each other something in the beginning that suddenly were just LIES. For me, it was a way of getting the feelings out from my divorce and it´s one of my absolute favorite songs to sing.
There will be some other video clip of your album?
- No, I don't think so. I´ve asked my record label but they have no such plans sadly.
There will be a second album? or you have plans to join another band?
- I want to do another album so for sure! A band can be something if its the right one =)
A question my dear friend, or hearing people tend to label a person, as some other ex singers of leaders groups or bands for you is difficult to be 'ex-Nightwish'?
- It´s always harder to be a solo artist after having been in such a big band since people tend to place you in a label and for me, doing music that is different from Nightwish, of course its a bit hard to get fans from the band to open up to my music.
What do you think of the comparison tha- t makes the fans? I personally do not think that's ethical
- I understand it, I do. Even if people say exchanging a singer isn't a big thing, I think it is when it changes the sound of a band. And Tarja and me were so different in styles so of course fans of what was Nightwish the first years will react. Then to hate the new singer for a band´s decisions is something I cannot understand and that´s where I find the problem is. Stop hating, move on and listen to the albums you loved, no matter what era it was.
Anette Olzon what we have in the next year?
- More gigs and some festivals I hope =)
Anything else you want to share with us?
- Thanks for being there for me, for doing this interview and hope you continue to follow my endeavors.
Thank you very much! for your time and space! My friend!
