Indeed indeed. Tokyo Hotel is... or was ... a DISGRACE to good music. "Schreiiiiii" <.,< irgh ... Also it's kinda offensive to any hotel in Tokio
I did finy my substitute not only in Edenbridge but also in To-Mera:
British band, Ukranian singer (though her "artists" name sounds more like she's a porn star: "Julie Kiss").
They've been on hiatus though since forever. Though I always loved their fusion of metal and really depressing jazz, lol. My favourite song is this (warning, very heavy on those jazz and the break down. Not to everyones taste. Also listen to it on volume "11" lol):
They also are or were connected to the band "Haken" which share or shared some of the same musicians (I do not follow band changes too much as long as they're not as drastic as with Nightwish. x) )
And about Tarja ... yes she's got a great voice. She studied opera after all on the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki! But a good musician does not equal a good componist. Also I do not quite enjoy her version of certain classical componists like Schubert (e.g. Ave Maria. Everyone knows that piece, though it also is overused ... like a pop song that plays 4 times within an hour it's just too much! ).
Though even that will always be better than the version of Helene Fischer about 2 or 3 years ago. xD (Helene Fischer is a German SchlagersÀnger ... google on your own risk ...)
