    I had a quick look through the thread titles on this board. Apologies if this has already been posted. I'm not sure if "Sleepwalker" and "Return to the Sea" are the album versions as I'm just downloading them now myself.

    From Blabbermouth.net:

    Former NIGHTWISH frontwoman Tarja Turunen has posted eight rare NIGHTWISH songs at her official MySpace profile. Download the tracks "Sleepwalker", "The Forever Moments", "The Wayfarer", "Nightquest", "Nightwish", "Once Upon A Troubadour", "A Return to the Sea", and "Lagoon" at this location. The tracks will only be available for download for the next seven days (until July 16).

    Arent some of them on their best of album? Or am I mad? (quite possible)

    Well, you could be mad, I don't know :D I had a look at the track listing of their Best Of here and it doesn't mention any of the songs above.

    "Return to the Sea" is on "Angels Fall First", "Sleepwalker" is on "Wishmaster". Some of the others were on single releases I think, especially "The Wayfarer" and "Once Upon a Troubadour". Hopefully someone more knowlegable on Nightwish's back catalogue will fill in the blanks.

    Also, on a side note, I've just been sent a link to Nightwish performing "Sleepwalker" on the Eurovision of all things! Check it out here!!

    The Sleepwalker track was for the Finnish heats for the Eurovision, they didnt actually qualify. Those tracks arent rare, with the exception of "Nightwish" which was only available on the original EP.

    Downloading the ones I don't have, thanks!

    Some of those songs are from their first demo and b-sides of more recent releases.

    With the exception on Wayfarer, Lagoon and Nightquest, they're pretty ****e.
    I hate their first demo. Although its kind of worth listening to as Tuomas' vocals are a good laugh.
