      In meinem damaligen CD-Kaufrausch hatte ich noch angenommen, eine komplette Live-CD gekauft zu haben, stelle nun aber zu meiner Bewunderung fest, dass dies nicht so ist. Hierbei handelt es sich eigentlich eher um eine EP mit zusätzlichen Liveaufnahmen. Hinzu kommt, dass auch noch sechs Tracks der DVD „From wishes to eternity – Live“ vorhanden sind, die sich ebenfalls in meinem Besitz befindet. Kommen wir also zunächst zu den vier EP-Tracks, welche aus einer Coverversion, zwei neuen Songs und einer Neufassung bestehen. Das Cover „Over the hills and far away“ stammt im Original von Gary Moore, wobei mir dies bisher unbekannt war. Wenn man sich aber den Refrain anhört, weiß man sofort, warum sich Nightwish für diesen Titel entschieden haben, da sich die Stimme von Tarja sehr kraftvoll und passend anhört. Die beiden neuen Songs „10th man down“ (mit Gastsänger Tapio Wilska (Ex-Finntroll)) und „Away“ sind typische B-Seiten. Bereits auf dem Debüt-Album der Band befand sich der Song „Astral romance“, der nun - vielleicht auch durch den Sängerwechsel - etwas druckvoller rüberkommt und ein sehr schönes Gitarrensolo aufweisen kann. Zu den Livetracks auf der CD ist wenig zu sagen, da man natürlich lieber die Bildaufnahmen gleichzeitig sehen möchte. Auffallend ist aber, dass ausgerechnet bei dem Gitarrensolo in „Walking in the air“ Schlachtgesänge vom Publikum angestimmt werden, so dass dieses leider untergeht. Und auch der Nightwish-Song schlechthin „Wishmaster“ hat einen ungewöhnlichen Anfang. Schön, dass zumindest die gleichen DVD-Tracks wie Audiotracks auf der DVD-Seite der CD vorhanden sind. Dadurch stellt man fest, dass „The Kinslayer“ der Eröffnungssong ist, leider aber auch, dass die männliche Erzählstimme vom Band kommt. Der direkte Übergang zu „She is my sin“ ist sehr gut gewählt, genauso wie die Detonationen und der Funkenregen während des Songs. Da „Wishmaster“ den Abschlusssong der Show darstellt, ist es etwas unverständlich, warum der Song „Deep silent complete“ hinten angestellt worden ist. Viele Worte über die Show möchte ich eigentlich nicht verlieren. Dafür ist schließlich mein Review zur vollständigen DVD zuständig. Nur soviel vorweg: Geiler Sound, geile Lightshow und Pyroeffekte und eine gute Kameraführung.
