Meeting with Tarja is a magical moment for Liv Kristine

This time we have for you several quotes from Liv Kristine, the amazing singer of Leaves' Eyes who is a very talented, smart and kind woman and who, we're sure, knows how to choose those she calls her friends; you know, people as awesome as she is, and not diva-ish at all (we must find a synonym for this word, really :P)



First we have a couple of quotes from an interview she gave for the blog Jim 2.0:

Q: Would you like to work with a particular band or artist? Whit whom and why?
Liv: I'd like to work with Amorphis, Linking Park, Tarja or my heroe Ozzy. Who knows? You can dream![...]

Q: As the frontwoman of Leaves' Eyes along with Alex, I wonder: What makes you keep on doing music and offer concerts around the world? Which has been the thing that you have enjoyed the most in your career?
Liv: What I've enjoyed the most was to sing with Nick Holmes (Paradise Lost) and tour with them; our tours with Blind Guardian, sharing the stage with my sister, singing a duet with Elfenthal, everytime I meet with my friend Tarja, the launch of “Lovelorn”… so many magical moments!


Second! We are so excited to know that Leaves' Eyes will tour with Tarja during her concerts in Germany in May! Here's what the Norwegians posted on their Facebook:

Singer Liv comments: “Both tours are just perfect for the release of our fourth full-length album “Meredead”. Firstly, I will finally share stage with my sister, Carmen Elise Espenaes/Midnattsol, which is like a dream coming true. Secondly, it’s a great honor for us to go on tour with our friends and support TARJA TURUNEN and her outstanding band! We are really looking forward to this. It will truly be a special experience for our fans and us!” 

Does she sound as excited as we are about this? I think so!

I miss the shows with Tarja and Leaves' Eyes by one frickin' day.. I'm so sad.

Still no clue who are the bands for Tarja's show in Pratteln May 8th :/

Bummer, Anex! I'm so sad for you too!

A last.fm friend of mine has a picture of them both walking, formerly along with a caption saying "Mrs. Day and Mrs. Night", on his profile. He's a big fan of both! =) Too bad he's in the US and cannot come see the European shows ...

Ah no, I think it was actually "Lady Day and Lady Night" or so (or with two different titles? can't remember). Anyway, that picture looks hot! =)
