I love when she says "I'm Floor Jansen and I'm a singer.' Talk about an understatement. It's like the 'I'm the Sun and I'm warm!" There is Floor, then everyone else. ❤
Most Dutch people don't feel the need to stand above others, so claiming she is better then others will not be percieved as a compliment. I can clearly see she is one of those people.
Absolutely! She is obviously a very cool chick and her sweetness shows every time she’s interviewed. Of course, she is an absolute metal Queen who commands the stage like nobody else!👏❤️

Dutch people seem to have a good ear for learning other European languages, unlike in particular English speaking people, who for the most seems to be completely "tone deaf", still sounds like they speak English when they try to speak another language. And it's a totally different thing when you live in an environment where you simply have to use the language every day, in every situation, in opposite to if you sit home in your native country, only learning by books, apps or online, and never use it in daily life.
I doubt her Finnish is more than basic as it is a very difficult language to learn. Swedish is much easier, especially if you are native Dutch or German. English is mandatory at school for every Dutch kid.
Thanks for this That's what's so special about Floor: You have this nice, funny and almost shy woman with whom you would probably like to be friends, if she wasn't such an almost unearthly, god-like apparition on stage, but just the neighbour from next door.
There are just not enough words, or not enough languages, to explain just how wonderful she is as a human being. Her animals adore her, it's so obvious, and we love her just as much or more. It's soooo fun to see her happy and smiling. We just want the best for her and her family! Much love, Floor!!
Awesome video. Thanks... So great to see 'our' Floor in such a beautiful place which clearly makes her happy. I know our little country is nothing like that but proud of what she has achieved and I feel a lot is still to come!
What's impressive? Swedish, German, Dutch and even English are like dialects of one common language - Germanic. It's not physics or theoretical mechanics.

Are there any Swedish people here who could tell me how good this Swedish is that she speaks? She seems to speek it very fluently - I can't wrap my head around how talented she is...
@@raymundod5224 I'd say it sounds like a slight norwegian accent to her swedish but Bohuslän is close to Norway. Since she already know dutch and english it's very easy to learn swedish. I don't speak dutch but I can understand quite a bit when reading since I speak swedish and english.
@@Hank_E Being Dutch, I do not understand Swedish, but the way Floor speaks Swedish, it sounds fluent and easy-going. If Swedish natives claim that it is not too hard to learn, coming from a Germanic language, then I believe it immediately. I seem to remember a statement from Floor that she felt that Finnish was much harder to learn than Swedish, which seems naturally right to me, knowing that Finnish is not a Germanic language and rather related to Hungarian (very distantly). Indeed, Swedish sounds strangely familiar to the Dutch, although certainly not everything is easily understood.
Tack för den intressanta videon. När jag såg den kom jag ihåg att du sa i någon intervju att du ville lära dig finska, men det har varit för utmanande. Visste du att ett stort antal ord har kommit in i det finska språket från det svenska språket. Här har de fått en ny stavning. Här är en slumpmässigt öppnad av ordboken: kanin, kaniini; kanna, kannu; kanot, kanootti; nationalism, kansalliskiihko också nationalismi; kansler, kansleri; kanslist, kanslisti; kantarell, kantarelli; kantor, kanttori; kanon, kanuuna; kaotisk, kaottinen. På nämnda sida du kan finna många sammansatt ord som har svensk slutet. Här är några för dig: skola, koulu; nationalism, nationalismi; mapp, mappi; demokrati, demokratia; etnolog, etnologia; ekonomi, ekonomia. Så att det inte finns annat än en svensk-finsk-svensk ordbok under läslampan. Allt gott till dig och din familj YR PS Du kanske redan visste allt jag sa till dig, men för säkerhets skull.
She speaks Dutch fluently, English fluently, Swedish proficiently, German on a casual conversation level and Finnish also a little. Impressive. She is not only an extremely gifted singer, but also very intelligent.
These are literally dialects descended from one common language. Except for Finnish. And even if a person speaks urdu, chinese, Turkish, swahili and Hungarian all at the same time, still nothing impressive. Most probably the person was privileged enough to live in those countries or learn them in the comfort of their homes. While the so many people are homeless throughout their lives and busy just surviving, having one to no meals a day and as a result not even speaking their own language properly due to the lack of education.
Floor не вероятная! Хочется сказать, что не с этой Планеты. Но видя как общается с животными, на сколько гармонична в лесу.... скорее как раз с этой Земли. Тогда вопрос: от куда пришли все остальные)
love the horses and nature my parents moved to rainforest australian farm, we had everything from cockatoos to deadly snakes perofrming belly dances on windows! horses ate a deadly plant and dies year before though :(
After Forever, bigger than Nightwish? Not so sure. Tuomas Holopainen is in composing what Floor is in singing. The very best. The fact that these two are in one band is one of those 'all planets align' things.
Bigger or not, but she would've kept her artistic freedom. She was phenomenal with her own bands, but everything she's sung since 2013 is written by other people, and I'm not much impressed by that.
Overall good video. I do however have one objection... You refered to Floor as "A" metal queen. Floor is not a metal queen. Floor is "The" Metal Queen...
it somehow feels good to know she's living the life she wants somewhere out there. I feel happy for her. But a question remains - if you feel so at home in a quiet place, with two horses, some dogs and a pine tree, what pushed you to become the international star that you are? I understand she is trying to promote the whole "duality" gig, but there must be more to it than that. One doesn't simply go from being cheered by 20 000 fans at Wacken to buying bread from the local bakery
Her (very loving) parents moved a lot when she was a child. She never had the chance to have stable friendships as a child. She is a Highly Sensitive Person (which for most people spoils their quality of life) and could not bear her mother being in pain and ill health all the time, she was never accepted in the many schools she went to because she spoke the wrong dialect of Dutch (because moved a lot and was HSP) and there you go. The recepy for someone who gets her identity from being the best in her trade in the world to wash away the pain, hurt and bruises. And thus she worked so terribly hard, so hard..... And she collapsed. But with Nightwish finally she achieved it. Why else whould she name her album "my paragon"? And she subsequently went for too long with a pregnant belly and collapsed (again). In a way she is a bit of a tragic figure that made the most of her buised youth. But I would not want to swap my whole life with her whole life. I think her good, tender, sensitive heart and her loving parents that gave her at least a loving home base (that moved to further her fathers career all the time) pulled her through. And let us not forget her husband, he adores her. That is just what she needs. If any of these factors would have been less good, she might have dropped out, went to drugs or something. I hope that answers your question.
I had the same thought first, but then I realized that the most successful Power- and Symphonic Metal bands come out of the Scandinavian woods, even if Floor is Dutch, of course: Sabaton, Nightwish, Brothers of Metal, Apocalyptica... You name it! A region where you have no real nights in the summer and no light in the midwinter. So maybe it's not only not a contradiction, but a kind of special connection between this two supposedly opposite lifestyles... Have you ever thought about this? 🤔 Greetings from Germany 🤘🏼
Not only just an amazing performer. Floor is such a wonderful person!!!
I love when she says "I'm Floor Jansen and I'm a singer.' Talk about an understatement. It's like the 'I'm the Sun and I'm warm!" There is Floor, then everyone else. ❤
I am Dutch and I don't know her.

I think was comes across about Floor which people love is that she is someone we could sit down with and talk over a beer and chips .. a regular human

Such a beautiful down to earth person she is , i just love her so much , imagine running into floor while shes walking her dogs .
Thanks for this
Simply amazing to hear Dutch Floor speak Swedish fluently!!😮😮
Why? We Dutch, at least the older generations, speak 4 languages. If you’re married to a Swede you have to be good at the language. 🇳🇱🌷🌷🌷
@ingridwatsup9671 I disagree. Not everyone in older generations speaks 4 languages!
4 talen? Over welke generatie heb je het dan?
@@DouweBurumaGeneratie Atheneum/Gymnasium A oude stijl. Ik moest ook Nederlands, Engels, Frans en Duits doen. Mijn Frans is inmiddels vrijwel volledig weggecorrodeerd maar Engels en Duits gaat nog prima.

Documentary is just like her songs, beautiful, but to short.
I agree ! Way too short !!
It will never cease to amaze me how fluent this woman has become in multiple languages, during such a short period of time.

Never heard of her until she opened for my long time fav band. Now I enjoy her music and know who she is.
Such a modest sweet woman.
