Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan is the third single released from the album Once by Finnish symphonic power metal band Nightwish. It was released on November 24, 2004, by Spinefarm Records, together with the platinum edition of Once.[1] The single was never released outside Japan and Finland.

"Kuolema tekee taiteilijan" is Finnish and means "Death Makes an Artist" in English. During the end credits on A Day Before Tomorrow, the orchestral version of "Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan" is audible. It was never officially released, but it was ripped off the DVD and released it through the Internet.

Second Nightwish singer Anette Olzon has performed the song at Stockholms Kulturfestival with the backing of an orchestra, and without the band, despite not speaking Finnish fluently.[2]
