Once again, I feel it is my duty as a fan of Xandria to give due credit to another of the band's frontwomen, Dianne! While she is not the first one I saw when I was getting into this truly awesome and mighty band, her performances and vocals are nonetheless astounding!
Nightfall was the first song and video I experienced with her, and to this day, it remains my favorite of their videos featuring her. There is something very intense about her that I almost immediately noticed in Nightfall - almost magical! Her eyes seem to literally twinkle like brightly lit stars.
