The funny thing is that this is the first song of the season, nobody except Tim Akkerman (curly hair) know her , she sings this for Henk Poort, I guess on the face expressions you should recognize which of the people it is , he doesn’t know who Floor Jansen is and what she can , after the season they performed several times together and as a highlight they sing phantom of the opera live whit Nightwish in Amsterdam last year , which I seen live because I was there to😊😊😊
That's ignoring several months all the singers had to prepare for the show and research the other singers. It's fair to say they hadn't heard of her before the show, but not before this evening.
There used to be an extended version which gave some pre and post performance chat to give it some context. Sadly Avrotros insisted on it being removed ... 🤥
Hi, thank you for your reaction! Let me just say that I don't know anything about voice control, technique, etc... I enjoy opera, I enjoy rock,metal, pop, all of it if done well. I've heard some outstanding voices in my life, in all genres. But with Floor... whatever song or genre she sings, for me she hits the ears and brain and then goes deeper to the heart and soul... I really keep asking myself how that is possible, someone should study that. Are, for example, Cecilia Bartoli and, God forbid, Maria Callas, "better" vocalists? Im sure they are! And they can bring me to tears just with their extraordinary capabilities! But Floor...I don't know...whatever she sings, she moves me more than any other; she gets under my skin and triggers emotions I didn't even know I had... I heard her do covers of songs that I adored for ages. ..and make them hit me way harder than ever before! Did she sing it technically better? Probably not...did it bring out more emotions, did I love it even more? Hell yeah!! At least for me; she's unique, and I'm so glad and thankful that I found someone who can do that to my soul... I realize maybe I don't make any sense here, but that's just it; it doesn't make any sense too me either! It just is. And I love it!
Thank you for your reactions and comments. This is truly a fantastic and different version of this awesome part of the opera. I´m glad you continue with Floor and Nightwish. All the best to you and your career in the future. Greets from Finland. Take care.
A bit of background on tis performance. This performance is from a Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers. The premise of it is to take singers from different genres of music, bring them together, get to know them and each other, and sing songs to the person featured on the center couch, in which the person featured either wrote or sang themselves, or has significant meaning in their lives. THIS SHOW IS NOT A COMPETITION SHOW. In this case, Henk Poort (the older guy on the couch) is featured this week, and is a well known opera singer and actor. He has performed as Jean Valjean in Les Miserables, and the Phantom in the Dutch productino of Phantom of the Opera (he is Andrew Lloyd Webber's favorite phantom). the other singers come from other genres as pop, rock, salsa/reggaeton, and folk. Of all of them, only Tim Akkerman (the rock musician) has heard of Floor, but hasn't really seen her perform, and none of the others had heard of her until this season. In fact, Floor was unknown to her entire country. So not was this your reaction to her, but your reaction to the other singers' reaction to her, as well as the entire country. The funny part here is that Floor was the first to perform for the entire season, and Henk had jokingly quipped that he thought it would be great to see if anyone would take on signing an opera aria for him. This is what he got.
All I can say is.... She is the One and Only Floor Jansen and she is the Goddess ❤ So please more Floor and more Nightwish 🤘 Btw You got some voice as well 🥰🙏👍 Thank you for reaction !
Fantastic performance and nice reaction. Henk Poort (older guy on couch) looks absolutely overjoyed - I understand this song is important to him for personal reasons.
Wow. Never heard of Floor Jansen. Enjoyed that song and voice. As always, Metal and Symphonie mesh very well. Great reaction and hey, you can always have the song going on low for a lullaby.
There is a longer version of this, where Floor talks a little bit about herself before she gets up to sing, plus there are reactions from the others after she finishes. th-cam.com/video/JN80AfHiUTY/w-d-xo.html there are English subtitles, so don’t forget to turn them on.
@@AaliyahCapili Hello Aaliyah, can you do more Epica please? 🙂 Maybe as a singer you would like this beautiful ballad: Epica - Dreamscape Acoustic (Pinkpop press conference Amsterdam 2014) Simone's voice is really beautiful in it and she uses a little head voice too. 😉
Nice reaction !! I really enjoy talented singers like yourself reacting to stuff like this (artists bringing different texture to presumptuous minds like mine) . next on your list with Floor could/should be : Floor with Epica 2 songs 1st being "Sancta Terra" and second "Stabat Mater Delarosa" In my opinion in that particular order for full effect.
I've seen a few of your reactions, and they're very good. I figured you would enjoy this performance from Floor in particular. She definitely has that clarity in her tone that you mentioned, but also the clarity of her pronunciation just kills me every time. I think what impresses me the most though, is that even on those high notes, it never sounds shrill. She seems to be very conscious of maintaining a balanced warmth in her sound.
Hi Aaliyah. Nightwish fan and new subscriber here. I loved your reaction to this beautiful performance. Based on you opera and classical training, I think you would really enjoy seeing Nightwish with Floor and Henk Poort performing The Phantom of the Opera in November of 2022. Floor performed this live barely a month after her successful breast cancer surgery last year. What a woman. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/w-d-xo.html
You should check out Floor singing with the band Epicas singer, Simone Simons. They sing Stabat Mater Dolorosa. I dont know how technical it is, but it is beautiful.
In this show she song with Henk Poort the 'Phantom of the opera' She promised him that they will sing that song with Nightwish. And last year they did: th-cam.com/video/TM23gaT4zkY/w-d-xo.html
Very much enjoyed the video - I hope to see you react to many more Floor content. In the same vein (and it's already been mentioned) , do check out Floor singing 'O mio babbino caro' - I think you'll be equally impressed! Take care 🙂

I think that was the moment Henk Poort fell in love with Floor. Well, not really in love, but you know what I mean. (He has a wife. lol) They've become great friends though. Imagine becoming friends with the man you were a fan of as a little girl. She adored him when he played the Dutch Phantom of Phantom of the Opera. Then she grew up and sang it with him!
If you want to see more little bit similar, you could react how Fiinish metal singer Jarkko Ahola does "Nessun Dorma" th-cam.com/video/GtcI3yxvq0w/w-d-xo.html
At this point in her life, Floor didn't speak German and sang this song in German without knowing the language. Since then she leaned how to speak it fluently. She appeared on a German TV program similar to this Dutch program and spoke flawless German.
Nope, Floor knew already German … perhaps she was somewhat rusty…. But during her school years German was even mandatory in secondary education … still is in many schools…
It always amazes me that people do not understand that metal is the closest genre to classical music. Replace violins for guitars and bass and cello for bass Guitar and it is metal. Dive deeper in metal and you will find out. Nice reaction.
I love Floors solo stuff from shows, covers, and Amsterdam 2021 live, just as much as I like her and Nightwish. Not really into the material of her new album.
If you liked this, then you will like this other lyrical singer. Dianne Van Giersbergen, is also Dutch like Floor. th-cam.com/video/PaYRvjoeNyg/w-d-xo.html

@@babsderooij3528 Thank you. Floor's episode (4) is there but I was thinking of episode 1 for Henk.
Singers sing what they can
Floor sings what she wants ❤
😍
Nice reaction!! Floor also have another video singing Oh Mio Babbino Caro, when she was younger.
Thanks so much, i also did a reaction on her Oh Mio Babbino Caro performance, hope you can check it out too💕

So wonderful to see your reactions and beautiful smile. keep learning. I can already hear your talent and expect big things from you. .
Thank you so much!!
Fantastic performance and nice reaction.
Henk Poort (older guy on couch) looks absolutely overjoyed - I understand this song is important to him for personal reasons.
Yes it is. His mother used to sing this song to him and his father when Henk was a little boy.
😊😍😊
Some people must have been very surprised that a Metal singer could sing like that!
Henk seems moved and delighted with what he hears.
LOL...Floor is the only female metal singer that can sing at all.
😍😍😍
@@bennybuffylove Absolutely not true. There are many truly awesome female metal singers.
@@fizzyridertoothat is true. That doesn’t mean people can’t also be surprised.
Floor is an amazing singer and artist she can sing opera and everything in between!
😍😍😍
She can sing anything she even sang the phone book she slayed it good job
She is so amazing😍
Wow. Never heard of Floor Jansen. Enjoyed that song and voice. As always, Metal and Symphonie mesh very well. Great reaction and hey, you can always have the song going on low for a lullaby.

@@AaliyahCapili you're welcome.
Love that groovy shredding guitar and battering drums with the classical singing of (possibly) my countries best singer.
😍😍😍
Imagine the queen of metal is up there and everyone expects something completely different from what they got here. 😁😁
