Floor Jansen has been "having fun" ever since she was in her first band, After Forever, making covers of some songs from the international repertoire (Bad Romance / Lady Gaga, Alone / Heart, Who Want To Live Forever / Queen) but in the TV show Beste Zamgers 2019 (in which each of the 7 singers sing covers from the others' repertoire, or songs with personal meaning for them) Floor has reached a new level. She was not well known until then in her own country, where metal is considered underground music, although she had a successful international career of more than 2 decades. After this televised show, Floor's popularity exploded in her country, so she was able to support a chain of sold-out solo concerts at the beginning of 2020. Then followed the lockdown period, without the possibility of performing in public, and Floor did then for the fans a set of 9 covers from her home studio that she published on her YT channel. In this context, the idea of a solo career was refined, and Floor decided that her new songs would not be rock or metal. Floor explains all this at length in her April 2022 interview for Chaoszine th-cam.com/video/iCeci20Xt9c/w-d-xo.html
Theres a clip of Floor actually singing the phone book at an interview and its awesome
you mean this one : th-cam.com/video/jcMJ-gfqd8k/w-d-xo.html .

She just Performed this on NPO RADIO 2.....amazing , shes better live .
Always better live. It's crazy!
Yesss!! live ALWAYS better and the NPO version was AWESOME
@@crazykaletrucker Didn't really enjoy that particular one. It had much too much echo in it. Not Floor's fault.
Live is always so much better. I saw that performance, it was fantastic live.
It's a great presentation
When you think this is already high then listen to her singing `Vilja Lied` and `Phantom of the opera` from `Best Zangers` or listen to `Stabat Mater Dolorosa` together with Epica.
Schoemaker
I second that :-) Beste Zangers 2019 was epic ! Still listening to the cd, when I am driving my car.
Yes please
Please pretty please!!!
Gladly I would like to ad Sancta terra to this list. Dank U
Watch Floor from 2018 in a side project called Northward. The song is called while love died. You'll love it!
"Decades in the sun' A Nightwish song, never performed by NW life, but sung by Floor a Amsterdam.
Hello from the Netherlands .
you MUST watch the Nightwish documentary is : please learn the setlist in 48 hours .
I continue to consider that whole story a great achievement in itself .
she got a call from Nightwish at her sister 's wedding , going home packing bags , a 3-3.5 hour plane to America ,
and then learning the 15 songs from an existing album that you 've never even heard before ! .
thanks for the video .
Sincerely, Hollandduck
everything this woman touches turns to gold just like this song and video
She looks unexistable!.. Perfection.
Floor sings in 8 languages, understands 5, speaks fluently in 3 and when she sings in English, you hear them all bleed together slightly. When she sings a song in a foreign language, she tries to get it as perfect as possible, understanding exactly what the lyrics are trying to convey, and as empathetic as she is, when she puts everything together, we get chills, goosebumps, misty eyes.....and tears.
Her german in Sing meinen Song is amazing. Long talkings in german .And later in the documentary. Absolut stunning.
Welke talen
that's amazing and beautiful!!
ja!!
@@D.jansen199 she speaks fluently Dutch, English and Swedish, also German, a bit of French, and sings in Spanish and Latin and Finnish, that - to her sadness - she isn't able to speak well, but she can understand and read it.
You should also check out the 7 songs floor did in beste zangers 2019 totalie different kinds of music
Floor has no ceiling. She has released 3 recent solo songs, all of which are more of a pop genre. She wrote the first of them, Fire, but not this one nor Storm. These are not her lyrics. She plans to release a solo album in March, before recording the next album with Nightwish in the summer, which is already in the works. She also recorded and and released some cover songs recorded at her home studio during the pandemic, my favorite of which is M83’s Oblivion. Keep exploring more Floor and Nightwish!
The moral is: almost all singers sing what they can, Floor sings what she wants ;-)
i like that!
I have a problem....I fall in FLOOVE❤
Her version of Let it Go from the Disney movie Frozen. An absolute must see and hear.
Floor has the ability to do vocally do anything. She has honed her voice to literally go any direction with it. The song was already written by a guy she is working with, he thought it would be good for her, and she agreed. She loves her husband and Nightwish with all her heart, she made that clear for us her fans.
I don't know about her being able to do anything. Don't get me wrong - she has an amazing range and versatility - but I don't see her doing something like Beth Hart. I'm sure she could do her own interpretation of it. They are both powerful singers - but they are different. That's what makes music so great though - there just isn't a be all end all in any genre.
@@JohnSheehan72 You need to check out more Floor past and present. I have never heard her attempt at Blues, but just like anything else I ever heard her attempt, bet she would kill it. Do you think Beth Hart could go full Opera or full Metal Queen in the same song line? Floor can.
Slow love slow has a bluesy bar room vibe
@@mdudley52 Yeah, I would put it more in the Jazz category, but Floor killed it. I learned long ago not to say what Floor can't do vocally, because then she will and shock you once again. I have just never heard her attempt any style or genre that she did not sound like she was totally comfortable in.
Hi Allen
She is an spinto soprano🤟🏻🤟🏻🎶🎶
very cool reaction thanks!
Hello Rosalie
Great reaction tx, you should also listen and react to Floor jansen together with Henk Poort singing The phantom of the opera in program called "Beste Zangers 2019", it is absolutely amazing.
greetings from Holland
Marcel
you will find the further you go down the metal road that some of the world's best female vocalist are in metal...enjoy. ROCK ON!
I believe she is classified as a dramatic soprano.
Most singer sing what he/she can. Floor sing whatever she wish😀
Apart from Nightwish which you already like, please check out Floors covers she did in lockdown and the tv show Beste Zangers, you wont be disappointed
Filmed at home with Hannes behind camera they say 🤗😎❤️🇧🇻
She is touring with Nightwish until January . She has European solo dates this Spring . Her new album coming out in March of 23. She did 9 solo dates in 2020 and sold out in hours. This summer recording another Nightwish album. You must see her solo stuff from Best Of Zangers 2019 . It's a dutch music variety show.
One of the things I like about this song (among many other things) is that she uses her low register more than usual, and I really love her lowcregister.
She can also add just a little "cry" into the first part of a syllable (maybe that's what you were describing). She's a master at doing those little touches that add so much emotion.
Although a metalhead at heart, she is now exploring another style all of her own. In terms of genre, I classify it as "Floor genre".
very well said! yes, that cry! i like it. it's nice to see her tap into that too.
I don’t think you would know her, but to me the song that sounds like something Alannah Myles would sing.
She has 3 amazing singles so far as well as several awesome covers.
And more will follow, to be released next year as an album. That'll be in my collection the same day!
@@NickBR57 same :-) and I have tickets for her solo show !
@@bettymajoor You lucky person! [insert envy emoji here]
Excellent call with Alanis Morrisette and you're right, can't put a finger on why.
Maybe look at "How's the heart" accoustic together with Troy.
Look up her covers on her own YT channel. And her cover of 'shallow'. You'll be surprised!
a fine 007 song!
Floor said in an interview that it is not about her own relationship ( she is married to Hannes the drummer of Sabaton). Her relationship with Hannes is very good. Nice review btw.
Hmmh, she thinking to Sander 🤔Wonderful Song.
@@ralfmeyer9086 I believe you're right Ralf.
@@BrendonChase_2015 It was my first meaning when i hear it the first. Everybody from us, had the (fuck, it is isto tricky for me in english). Deine erste grosse Liebe, und wenn sie ended. Vergisst du niemals. .und Floor zeigt dir das. Greetings from Dümmer See in the Netherlands 🤘🤘
@@ralfmeyer9086 Ja genau, die erste Liebe und Trennungsschmerz in Musik verwandelt.
@@BrendonChase_2015 Warum kannst du so verdammt gut auf deutsch
antworten ?🤔🤔 Greetings in the Netherlands .My dutch is terrible, ok, with my plattdeutsch, i understand a little bit. Now my . As de Bliefv .🤔(i know, , it is wrong))
Floor Jansen took part in a Dutch program "De Beste zangers" in 2019, there she sang songs, in her own way, for other artists who participated in the program.
One of the absolute toppers was the duet with Henk Poort "The phantom of the opera" She also sang the cover "shallow" in a pretty intense way.
Maybe they are interesting for you to see and listen. All the video's are on youtube
Another great reaction Rosalie. I am following your Nightwish journey and really enjoy it. Also, I agree with Gabriel Bardac about the Beste Zangers 2019 show. You will see Floor's versatility, and you will have an even deeper appreciation for what she can do with her voice. Keep enjoying your journey.
My god! Floor can sing any style and genre and just nails it every time.She is absolutely incredible.I really hope she makes a speedy recovery from the big C.The world would be a poorer place without her.Love and best wishes to Floor,her family and friends.
Floor is oke now. She's 100% clean, from what i've read. No more 'nasty things' in her body that don't belong there. So happy for her!
@@anaguq4651 That's really good to know.Thank you.
Thanks
Wow, love your reactions, you should definitely react to ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010) - Floor's previous band
Cannot believe you haven’t reacted yet to Floor’s version of Lady Gaga’s ‘Shallow’!?
I tear up every time a here her love this style from her she can't do nothing wrong she is a powerhouse beautiful song and lyrics
You should try her with Northward "When love dies". I think I got the title right? Love your reaction.
Close - it's "While Love Died".
You're absolutely right. I hear some Alanis nuances also.
☝☝👍👍
Floor Jansen sings from the phone book Live and unprepared on the Dutch national radio: th-cam.com/video/jcMJ-gfqd8k/w-d-xo.html
only one word: FLOORGASM
Queen Floor Is Pure Perfection.
You Must See More From Her...
Every Song Is Unique And Magic.
Blow your Mind!!
She fits in in Nightwish like any member of the band. In that she has her own creativity. But the music comes first! She explores herself in her own music. And there is a strong connection to her own country and her family. The Pink Pop festival in the Netherlands was especialy important to her. She had her own performance separate to that with Nightwish. In that order she was more the dog and later on the wolf. Speaking of fitting in!
Love your reaction with analysis. Very well done. We really like your appreciation to Floor as a singer and person. She is totally amazing. Stay safe.
Fire and Storm.. don't know witch one of these two I like the most. 👌
I highly recommend checking out Ramstein(spelling) probably one of the only groups I can honestly say you have to watch both the official music video and the official live performance for all of their songs.
😁
Floor began her metal career when she was 16-17 years old, as the lead singer for After Forever. Nightwish fired their 2nd lead singer, Annette Olsen, in 2012, and they asked Floor to join them as a stand-in to finish out their road tour. The band members immediately clicked with her personality and more metal style and the rest is history. Oddly enough, Floor was also good friends with Tarja, the first Nightwish lead singer (also fired).. She has a young daughter with husband, Hannes, who is the drummer for Sabaton. A simple pleasure - In a TH-cam session with Tarja, the singers expressed the belief that after reaching the 40 year old gold post, they both felt they had earned the right to ditch their high heels. Floor agreed to participate in a Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers (Best Singers) in 2019 when she found out that her Phantom of the Opera idol, Henk Poorte, was also going to participate. Through her signing experiences on Beste Zangers, a show where the participants sing tribute songs in honor of each other, Floor discovered that she likes to experiment with other music genres, similar in vein to how actors like to hone their skills by taking on diverse roles.
Anette Olzon
You should listen to Floor sing the Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort. He has performed extensively with phantom and I saw that during an interview he said that he specifically changed up some of his singing style with Phantom in order to match with Floor. For him to do that I think speaks volumes on his acknowledgment of Floor and her style and ability.
A palavra para Floor é versatilidade.
Just Brilliant 💜 ...thanks for Your reaction girl 👌🔥🌺🦁🙏🏼
You should check out Anett Olsons stuff after she left nightwish. So many good songs.
Great message. Fantastic vocals.
By Floor's own admission she is a Metal-head. Metal is her life long favorite type of music but she does like to challenge herself with new things. If she is going to sing metal she would do that with Nightwish if she is going to sing on her own she will do something else. It is like if someone is a baker & they already work for the best pretzel maker in the world but they want to do some baking on their own they would not make pretzels they would make something else, like cupcakes.
hey Rosalie check mal floors Solo schow live in Amsterdam . Dort singt sie . Songs von After foever ihrer 1 Band Von Revamp . Und auch Songs von Nightwish . 🤘😁
Floor writes great songs that connect as she is an empath. I believe she uses herself as the backing vocals for this song. Thank you for another great reaction.
She didn’t write this. Her friend gave it to her because it didn’t work for him.
As much as I admire Floor's talent and skill as a singer, and I do, I don't much care for her recent compositions. They're not bad, they're just sort of ordinary. I wouldn't put them on my personal playlist. Please keep in mind, folks, that I'm not saying Floor is an ordinary singer. I don't believe that for a minute. I'm just saying these ordinary songs are not the best vehicle for her extraordinary voice.
Each to their own. Me I love them all.
Same here. I love Floor but these solo songs just isn't for me 🤷🏼♀️ Same with Marko's and Anette's solo stuff. But that's ok, I don't have to love everything they put out.
agreed. oddly, i really enjoyed her covers on zangers and most of those songs were 'ordinary songs' as well but it was the little tweaks in her delivery which gave them such great emotional depth. i don't think its the music. so far her solo work seems like an expression of her technical proficiency. this might be subconscious: and is over embellishing vocally due to the 'simplistic' song structures. i was in tears when the first note came out of her mouth on the German version of the show. i have yet to be overwhelmed with any of her singles. my thesis could be completely wrong, but something is missing.
I liked Storm a lot!
Hope you have a great day Rosalie thank you for your reaction 😊👍
thank you very much :) same to you.
Floors voice is an instrument, she has mastered.
That is a great analysis! It certainly can be interpreted like that! She did say not to worry because she didn’t had any issues with her husband 😂. But she didn’t mentioned anything else about the meaning of the song. Because art is so personal, for the artists and for the audience, I think we can interpret it like that! ❤
The live version from Dutch NPO Radio 2 on TH-cam is also really good 🙂
Wow, that one went by super fast! Full disclosure: played the final part of your analysis at 0.75 speed, so that I could enjoy your enthusiasm just a bit longer, haha. So ty Rosalie, for another great reaction. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
:) I dust did that, listened again her final speech at 0.75. She's a quick speaker :))
@@gabriel.bardac Great to hear I'm not the only one, haha. Thought I might be a slooow listener 😂 Cheers Gab!
Her husband shot this video in their home studio. She is just a Soprano. She has the ability or control to sing in a wide range of highs and lows. From growls to opera. Practice makes perfect and she is the living example. Enjoyed your reaction. Thanks! I think you reading too much into the lyrics. This is a break up song pure and simple.
Thx for this meaningfull and in-depth Recap, learned some Things from This:)
What really makes me sad, just thinking, you would probably never listened to Her, when there werent some Recons from Nightwish. She deserves really some Rotation on Radio, compared to what scream to me, when i drive nowadays in the car with mainstream Station turned on.
But would never happen, no big Producer and Distributor in Charge, so she will stay Niche , if no Coincedence comes along.
Stay Healthy
NWA Bavaria North
very glad you liked it :) true def. not mainstream, but that's why i love focusing on world music so much. so many treasures out there
Great reaction.
I think you gonne love her performances in the Dutch tv show Beste Zangers.
At that time almost nobody in The Netherlands knew her or knew the band Nightwish.
Only the metal fans.
The idea of that show is , that every week one of the singers is in the spotlight and the other singers sing something for him or her.
This can be something from them or something else for them.
Its not a competition and its all about the love and respect for the art of music.
All the other singers where well known Dutch artist and didnt know Floor.
Floor did songs in 4 languages and all in different styles.
If you like what you seen from her so far ,you gonne love her in that show.
You dont want to miss there faces when they are confronted with her voice and her pressence !!!!
If you do check some songs out,there are versions with intro talks,to get a better idea why she sings that song and for who.
It adds to the experience.
Atleast do her version of Lady Gaga's Shallow
and The Phantom Of The Opera her duet with Henk Poort(the original Dutch Phantom).
Beside that amazing show I like to point out 2 more awesome covers she kills.
Heart's - Alone
Lara Fabian's - Adagio
Anyway , please more Floor or Nightwish.
Thanks
"Almost nobody' is a bit of an exaggeration and somewhat dismissive of the metal scene that is very much alive in The Netherlands (who have known her for a long time). Although comparing it to the masses that either like Dutch tear jerkers or the music played on the radio (the mainsteam audience that watched BZ I guess), it is a smaller portion of the population indeed.
@@corienb How long do you think you would have to walk around , asking wether someone knew who she was back then?
I know, she was already big in the scene.
But doesn't the exaggeration sounds great....?
Het is eigenlijk meer een, bij wijze van spreken:)
Highly recommend you watch her video of doing a cover of Alone. It is based of the Heart version of the song. I also reccomend he doing Shallow at Beste Zangers
Would love to hear Floor cover "You Oughta Know ". Enjoyed it , thank you. Look forward to your next reaction. Be well.
That would be awesome!
If you’re liking this, then you might want to take a look at her rendition of Lady Gaga’s “Shallow” (from Beste Zangers show) or Heart’s “Alone”..
She gives both songs a new dimension (especially Shallow), and in both songs she’s also accompanied by minimal music which let’s you really enjoy and appreciate her voice..
This song and elements in the voice do remind me of Ilse de Lange also a Dutch singer (country)
Did you notice how the emotion progresses through out the song from sadness to relief and happiness.
There are moments that remind me of Melissa Eldridge in here and there's also moments where I'm getting Beth Gibbons vibes, from Portishead 🙂
Terrific Reaction!! Rosalie, there are so many Reactors out there now, but you stand out. Love your energy and emotion. ...New SUB... coming from a real pro, your analysis helps us regular folk better appreciate a singer's skills.
Thank you very much! :)
You want powerhouse? Try Floor's Rock project called Northward - When Love Died. Otherwise great reaction, welcome to Nightwish community 😊
Floor reminds me sometimes of Wilson Sisters from Heart (should check out her version of alone) or even elements of Stevie Nicks
please react to Nightwish: yours is an empty hope. You will see another side of floor I love her growls. also Romanticide is a beautiful song.
Hi Rosalie, nice reaction! Pls check her performance at Beste zangers. A Dutch show. You will love it!
The video was shot and edited by Hannes, Floor's husband. If Sabaton ever tanks, I think he could make an excellent living doing music videos.
Live even better🎶🎶🤟🏻🤟🏻
its her first time , afther 25 years metal .
I enjoyed your take on this song. She is such a metal Valkyrie Goddess on the Nightwish stage. Floor is such a sweet person off stage from what I can tell from the outside wife, mother, professional musician, singer/vocalist, performer, and entrepreneur business person. You may or may not knit she has two tattoos one under each ear: a Wolf and a Domesticated Dog.
Floor enjoys her family but she very serious about her professional work. While the lock down was great for connecting with her family including her horses and dog she still worked on her craft during this time. I mean just listening to Floor’s voice is a wonderful blend of natural music talent and work developing her voice over the years since she started singing. I enjoyed your reaction and analysis.
Great reaction! Now u need to go into the dutch band within temptation... start with their song run feat. Xibit
Rosalie, hello just found your channel. I like your reactions very much! I saw you did Lara Fabian adagio. Floor has her own version of adagio!
I think your interpretation is spot on. It is also I think a message to her fans who did not appreciate her going "pop" (like me). I've changed my position slightly and start to appreciate her pop songs too
thank you. I def. love when people aren't afraid to enjoy the various genres.
I love how you analyze a video.I just hope that you take the time to enjoy the music privately and without distraction.I am already looking forward to the next time, greetings Kelsea
Check out Floor singing that song live just two days ago. She adds a little more grit in places. th-cam.com/video/vGdTeyeDMr0/w-d-xo.html
Link live-video of this song (at "NPO RADIO 2"): th-cam.com/video/vGdTeyeDMr0/w-d-xo.html
Floor can sing anything she wants and make you believe and Feel the meaning of the song. In an interview she even sang part of a Dutch phone book beautifully. You need to hear her singing on Beste Zangers or Sing Meinen Song, her version of Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poorte is simply stunning
Floor wrote another breakup song called "While Love Died" back in 2018 with Jorn Viggo Lofstad of Pagan's Mind for their Northward project. More straightforward rock, and more rage than sadness. Well worth a look: th-cam.com/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/w-d-xo.html
Johannes Oerding reinterpreted the song for her appearance on Sing Meinen Song, and it's surprisingly touching: th-cam.com/video/jXEKOZO5_mc/w-d-xo.html
Floor is a Highly Sensitive Person or HSP. She's sort of an Empath. Her husband Hannes filmed this video. He's the drummer of the band Sabaton. Sabaton always does songs about War and War Heroes.I think you checkout her solo concerts. She's been a professional singer since she was 16.She had a bad breakup with a fellow bandmate with her band After Forever. I Love Floor and she's beautiful inside and out
Another great reaction today from you! Great job and this is one song of hers I haven't heard yet too. I hope you manage to hear her sing "phantom of the opera" (Both versions) sometime close to Halloween too, it's ridiculously good.
👍😁👍
Excellent reaction from you 👍
And in my opinion, you are spot on in your analysis. Floor are doing this exploration of the pop world, although she is a metal head for life (her own words).
Floor has participated in 2 TV-series (Beste Zangers / Dutch and Sing meinen song/ German) - not competitions, but singers from different genres sharing themselves and honoring each other by singing each others favorites. Phenomenal shows - and it brought Floor a prize for building bridges between the genres in the show 'Beste Zangers'. In that show she performs the greatest version of Lady Gaga's 'Shallow' - ever recorded!!
One of Floor's strongest skills are het ability to express emotions and passion - she can literally make people cry their hearts out, when she goes full emotional mode - she did that on live TV a couple of times in 'Beste Zangers'. She is that powerful and a truly unique storyteller /artist.
You have so much coming your way 😉
I like that you did this I love Floor Jansen and she is so good and I like her powerful voice and the fact that she is singing from her heart about herself in her own way she has wanted to be a solo artist for a long time but had the fear that she couldnt do it then she got with NightWish and has been so good and has her family and she has just decided that she is going to try and do it now I watched her biography video it was very enlightning as to who she is I think it does have to do with there is a me besides in nightwish anyways she is just a great singer in any genre thanks for the ride today it was fun as always your ride or die forever EYYOOOOOOOO
oh neat. I'm looking forward to exploring more behind-the-scenes interviews with various artists and getting to know them personally so to speak
@victorbradshaw, thank you very much for your super sticker today!!! :) I see you. i appreciate you. Hope you see this.
If you want to know what Floor can do with her voice check out "Floor Jansen life in Amsterdam " full concert .
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 also listen to her solo songs; "Fire" and "Storm"
you should do first solo song FIRE and her second STORM
her song Fire n Storm a bit both sound like Adelle but better
Congratulations on 23K Rose!!!!!
Thank you!! :)
