They are quite fanatical some of these fans, and I don’t know why Nightwish have this type of fan because I don’t think all bands have them, but there’s something about Nightwish that made these people quite fanatical." I think music is something where you can’t compete, I don’t think you can say who is best because we are all different and what you like may be something I don’t like and I think we should stop comparing. We sold more albums than Nightwish ever had in the past, so in that way I succeeded, but they made me feel very insecure and that I had to work so hard to be liked because of those comparisons with Tarja which I find quite amusing because we are so different. It was a hard job for me to take because the fans didn’t approve of me. Olzon: "When I joined Nightwish I had very big shoes to fill and they didn’t make it easy for me, the fans. Rather than simply admitting that each singer is different and has their own strengths and weaknesses they constantly compare and criticise. PM: One thing I find depressing is how many people seem obsessed with championing their favourite singer as the “best” a band has had and criticising the other singers. Being in a band is not like a normal job, it’s like a family so it is like a big divorce when you end something like that too, so I think 'Lies' does work for the Nightwish thing too." Olzon: "Yes but that was also like a divorce, so it suits that situation too.
