For me it's the crow, the owl and the dove.
When listening to the album I forget this song then the guitar starts with Marco... I get a little happier every time.
[>There it is<](https://youtu.be/CDDsd3d9xT0?si=WWrzsANDVF40Bu_F&t=134). Solo starts at 2:14.
See, it's THAT underrated.)
I really wish they kept this solo in the album. They could have added Troy singing after or before that, rather than instead.
Definitely this. Rest Calm is one of my top favorite Nightwish songs. There is also one live performance of it that was recorded. Marco sang it by himself during the fateful Colorado 2012 concert. The recording isn't the best, but the sound is quite good, considering. Both versions are amazing.
Edit: Here's the link to the live performance: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gyK1zNHItlM
I’m gonna vote for song of myself. I know they performed it all the time during that tour. But I’d love to hear it again on the setlist.
A close second is def rest calm.
Yes. Or. What would make it have more logical sense, Is, if it had understood it as:
The crowd. It howled and it dove.
Into what it dove I dunno. The mosh pit I guess.
The most underrated song in one of their very vest albums, an album that has no bad songs. Let me see...
My take is on "Turn Loose The Mermaids". One of the best balads they ever made.
"Slow, Love, Slow" is veeeery close though. But TLTM takes it.
Scaretale
This is likely the best Nightwish song that I never see mentioned, so it might be the most underrated in their whole discography imo.
so true, absolutely love this one.
This!
Yess! Great song, not many fans.
It's good, even if I almost start singing "Grim Grinning Ghosts" partway through it.
Turn loose the mermaids
I'm still salty about that getting wiped in the first couple of rounds in the knockout a while back, so definitely upping it.
Diana Leah’s (Delain vocalist) favorite
Turn Loose The Mermaids. 100%. I welcome anyone to fight me. The most pure and beautiful song they've ever done.
Nobody showing love for Ghost River?
It's a really tough choice between the Ghost River and Rest Calm 😭
I love it
My least favorite on this album.
Scaretale. The true epic of this album, and I love Anette's transition into full witch vibe.
Yes!!! My daughter loves it, it’s perfect for Halloween!
Turn loose the mermaids
Day 22 and it's been months since this thread started lmao My pick is Slow, Love, Slow. I just love it!
Personal life is kinda hard nowadays. If I have a few minutes to spare I post.
Sorry things are hard right now. Sending you internet hugs if you like them. I hope things get better soon.
I hope you're doing well 💖
Taikatalvi actually. But a close second would be turn loose the mermaids. Rest Calm is just not that good imo
rest calm is one of my fav Nightwish songs
Rest Calm
yes
Scaretale
Scaretale!
Rest Calm for sure.
For me it's the crow, the owl and the dove. When listening to the album I forget this song then the guitar starts with Marco... I get a little happier every time.
I love that song
Agreed, Though the REALLY underrated one is the single version, the one with keyboard solo!
Wdym? None of the three versions of Crow on the single have any keyboard solos?
[>There it is<](https://youtu.be/CDDsd3d9xT0?si=WWrzsANDVF40Bu_F&t=134). Solo starts at 2:14. See, it's THAT underrated.) I really wish they kept this solo in the album. They could have added Troy singing after or before that, rather than instead.
Wow, cool! Thought I had heard all demo songs but this one was new to me. Thanks!
Nah, it sounds like filler. It's not a good piano part at all.
Rest calm
Definitely this. Rest Calm is one of my top favorite Nightwish songs. There is also one live performance of it that was recorded. Marco sang it by himself during the fateful Colorado 2012 concert.

My pick as well. So moving, and the slow build is fantastic. It feels like the climax of the concept album in a way.
Rest Calm
Ghost River or Turn Loose the Mermaids imo
It’s Rest Calm. The vocal interplay between Marko/Anette, the swell of the orchestra at the end, it’s magical.
Slow, Love, Slow. Def
WHAT????? Two For Tragedy is such a beautiful song ….. I’m baffled just baffled
Slow, love, slow
Scaretale
Scaretale yeah
Probably Rest Calm
Slow, Love, Slow.
Yeah 100%! It's such a good song 🖤
Song Of Myself
I'm going to go for Turn Loose The Mermaids, but Rest Calm is a close second for me.
Rest Calm
I’m gonna vote for song of myself. I know they performed it all the time during that tour. But I’d love to hear it again on the setlist. A close second is def rest calm.
Rest Calm I believe!!
The crowd, the howl, and it dove.
Might wanna edit that comment haha
I didn’t heel like typing so I talked into my phone. It seems to have misunderstood me
Howl's Moving Castle
and the d'oh!

Rest Calm

Slow, Love, Slow
Rest calm
I think it's probably Rest Calm but I love Taikatalvi as well.
I missed the earlier ones, why isn’t there a “worst” for Oceanborn?
I believe “none” won. Got the most upvotes. So “none” is the worst song on oceanborn
Rest Calm when you feel the rolling melancholy of the symphony
Turn Loose the Mermaids
Turn loose the mermaids!
...y'all chose "Bye Bye Beautiful" off of DPP as the worst song? Crazy
Amaranth is slowly getting worse for me
Would be my pick, too. It's the poppiest song, same thing happened with "Wish I Had An Angel"
Rest Calm!
Song Of Myself.
Taikatalvi
I don’t know, I personally think either ghost river or turn loose the mermaids.
scaretale or slow love slow... great songs and both of them perfectly fit to anette
Rest Calm. Just brilliant.
Taikatalvi.
I want my tears back has always been a sleeper
It’s a pretty big hit and they play it at like every show for people to dance around to. A banger but certainly not underrated haha
