Former NIGHTWISH singer TARJA TURUNEN spoke with Naomi Freeman from Excal.on.ca while she was in Toronto recently promoting her new solo album, My Winter Storm.
“I think it’s really important to be humble for the music because there is always someone better than you, there is always something new for you to learn for music and you can’t be the best in the world. It makes you work very hard,” Tarja explained before her Toronto appearance. “Music really makes you keep your feet on the ground. People can really see if you’re honest. That is the truth, they really can see through you,” she said.
“With my classical training and coming from a metal band, producers didn’t know what to expect. I like to shock people, though. It makes it fun,” she said about her solo debut.
