Floor couldn't attend the actual show because of her surgery, she wasn't allowed to travel, so they recorded this in her and her husband's studio, with the Marcel Fisser band playing the music. It was shared on the actual show as a link to the youtube song. They were doing a bunch of favourite Eurovision songs, as in, favourites of the singers, essentially along the Beste Zangers concept. Having seen the entire show, I can tell you that this was by far the best performance :). Oh, and the show itself was recorded only a few kiilometers from where I live, the only hilly, or rather undulating part of the Netherlands, and IMO, the most beautiful part of the country :). Loved your reaction! Thank you! Warm regards, Wim P.S.: Loved your "EuFlooria" pun!
Dank je Wim! I appreciate the information. I'll have to find the full show. I did not know there were any hills in the Netherlands, this is news to me. 😂 Cheers! 😃
Great reaction as always. As a Swede myself I think this is one of the best songs ever to have won Eurovision:) And she makes It sound even better. And now when Floor lives in Sweden I expect her to sing for Sweden and win the whole thing next year:)))
Agree totally, although Waterloo from ABBA is a good second, i was 10 at the time. I would never mind if Floor would ever win a Eurovision for Sweden, as long i would have a chance to hear her heavenly voice. Greetings from the Netherlands.
She is Dutch, lives in Sweden, singing in a Finisch Band. For witch Country she should go to the eurovision Song Contest? A Good reason to not go, i think
Her low tones are like velvet, her high tones are pure without transition, just going up, up, up... She has the confidence to go full all the way, and take back when needed without loosing any voice control. Better with every performance, where does this go?
That's a nice pun 🤣 I was always in awe of Loreen's vocals because this song goes hiiigh. Not surprised that Floor did amazing job with this one, honestly I don't believe there's anything she couldn't do 🤣 And when she does it, we're all Floored! 💜
24 years later and her voice and vocal abilities still runs up and down my spine. Can't wait until October 5th! I've been holding on to these tickets for over a year now and the anticipation is killing me inside lol!
And once again she hits you out of the ballpark!!! Three blind mice, hilarious. Nice react man and off course a fantastic band (which toured with her at the solo shows she did)
The stitches aren't even out of her body yet, and she was not allowed to travel by the doctor. Imagine... Then pulling this off, without a glitch. Floor is So amazingly strong. Physically, mentally & emotional. What A Woman!
Finally a reactor who actually knows the original version. 😃 I am a ESC fan, too. Not so much Euphoria fan, but this arrangement and Floor made it so much better, for me at least. 😊💪
Yeah I watched live in2012 to see Loreen win. So clearly this song would win. But i saw also ABBA win with Waterloo in 1974. And because i was 10 at the time it made an impression for life. Then the ESC started for me. Gr.from the netherlands, big Floor and NW fan
Floor is amazing. Great cover again by her, she made it her own again as she does with every cover she does. The Floor-touch so to say. You are right, this band also supported her on her own tour in 2020, I went to see her show in Heerlen in the Netherlands, it was amazing. She did songs from her former 2 bands After Forever and Revamp, a few songs from Nightwish and some other songs she wrote herself. And keep in mind, she had a gall-blatter operation just 2 weeks ago. And she still kills it! Mind-blown 🤯
Haha Eurovision is something I grew up with as a family event in my childhood (we all gathered and watched, cheered for our fav), so it has a very nostalgic feel to it. I still watch it! :D Can't get enough of her version of this song... wow shivers..
The show exists already for over a decade. This was a Eurovision Contest special. They performed all eurovision songs. As we 🇳🇱 won the last Eurovision the next one on May 22 is in The Netherlands.
Ha, ha....Euflooria...love it! :-D Yet another immaculate performance from Floor. Every single cover she has made has been an improvement on the originals (imo). She has a real gift for making them her own. One thing's for sure, Floor's surgery hasn't affected her voice, which bodes well for the upcoming virtual concert.
I'm so excited and i just can't hide it..🎵🎶...🙈 I don't know how its possible that everything she sings she turns into gold! I never experienced a singer giving me shivers EVERY single time. I love your reaction 💖 Like your other reactions,i can relate to them so much,like we feel we same 😊
Thanks Denise. I know what you mean. Most great singers may have one, two maybe three songs that give me goosebumps but Floor is able to do so every time and she makes it look easy. She's not human 😄
"This is not disappointing" love the understatement mate :D [which is used in the North of the Netherlands as well to actually highlight the opposite "kon minder -> could be less/worse"]
You are the first reactor who has actually seen the original. That makes your reaction so good, loved it! A fun fact: the end tune of this video is the end chorus of the Dutch ESC winning song in 1969. We won it together with the UK, France and Spain. Have much fun with the upcoming ESC!
@@ThomFoolery1 It is "De Troubadour" by Lenny Kuhr... th-cam.com/video/SNBadtJvNUc/w-d-xo.html ...very old fashioned haha, in those days still with a real orchestra and conductor. It is sung in Dutch, no subtitles unfortunately. Enjoy!
As a huge Eurovision fan myself this song has been my fav winner of all times after Lordis Hard Rock Halleluja. Floor updated the song to 2.0 for sure. I still love the original by Loreen too. Now the song has been sang by Floor and Loreen so Flooreen ❤️ Rooting this year in Eurovision Blind Channel: Dark Side 🇫🇮 #JoinTheDarkSide
Great reaction! I'm a big fan of the Eurovisionsongcontest too! In 2019 The Netherlands won. Sadly Covid-19 did'nt allow a ESC in 2020. But what if Floor would present The Netherlands or Finland! Winner for sure. I don't care for wich country she sings. Douze points (twelve points) from me for Floor! Greetings from The Netherlands!
Dude, greetings and peace from Chicago! I'm 48 and am in a wheelchair chair after having a stroke years ago, and when she opened her mouth COVID went away and right leg came to life and she grabbed my hand we flew. When she sang it was just her and I. Everything was gone for a moment and she took me a journey that lifted my spirits and now I know I WILL walk again! Thanks again for a kick ass reaction as always bro. Stay healthy. Keep on rockin in the free world. 🤘✌️
Our Valkyrie Goddess knows a couple of things of how to make a song punch harder. Reckon I have watched this 20 times in the last 2 days. While I try to never talk about her obviously amazing looks, she looks unbelievable here.
AHH....I have been waiting for one of my favourite reactors to watch this performance of her Epicness. Insane. Loved your enthusiasm and expertise. Great reaction. Have a great day. See you on the virtual show!!!
Yo Thomas! You were really fast on this one! Great reaction on such a short time mate. And what an absolute awesome cover of this song. She's always amazing... Catch you later! 🎼🎶🔊🤘
@Thomas Pearson, dude cudo's on the pronounciation of 'Jansen' and 'zangers'! It just struck me while I was rewatching your video, haha! 👍🏻 👍🏻 Btw, I noticed that you never reacted to a song of Floor's 'little' sideproject called 'Northward', right? If you ever want to, 'While Love Died' the first one on the album will really get your spirits up buddy! Get ready for an angry Floor! Cheers! 🎼🎶🔊🤘
Awesome reaction as always! Great to see someone who already knows and loves the original checking this out. Euphoria is such a banger indeed and to this day may very well be my favourite Eurovision song, it's been on my playlists since 2012. So a more rock version, yes please; and a Floor Jansen version on top?? Now that's quite the gift! Have an awesome day Thomas, keep up the great work :)
I've been waiting for this! Thank you for getting to the reaction quickly! Loved your genuine reaction. I was the same way when I first heard Floor's version of this song.
Your reason to like Eurovision is exactly mine and my friends' reason! We love to come together and drink beer and comment relentlessly on everything 😄
"Euflooria" is perfect xD I'm not much into Eurovision anymore tbh, but I enjoy the shows beforehand a lot, haha. That being said, you should check out the entry of Buddy Vedder from the same show, he's got an AMAZING voice too! ♥ Also: Like I said to a friend when this came out: Floor's vocals and this rock rendition gave the song what it never got but always deserved! (I still like the original as well, but to me personally, Beste Zangers just took it to... "divinity" :P)
* de beste zangers * the best singers is a Dutch show where the best singers we have in our country come together and cover a song of one of the singer . It is more to show that you respect the work that person did . This version is called songfestival because this month we have the euro vision contest in ahoy Rotterdam . Floor did the song Euforia as you can see and she nailed it . We as Dutchies are beyond proud of her .
All I know is pop stars around the world should be thanking their lucky stars that Floor is a metal head. Great reaction 🤘. BTW...what’s your favorite whiskey?...I’m American so I’m partial to bourbons but also appreciate Scotch and Irish Whiskeys.
@@ThomFoolery1 gonna have to try that one out. I’m a big fan of Angel’s Envy (especially the cask strength) as well as Blanton’s (I was drinking this before John Wick made it cool 😂). Really enjoy your reactions...very real and true ..you can tell artists that really touch a certain part of your soul and Floor has touched a part of my soul that no other has ever done. So glad I stumbled upon her and Nightwish one random night drinking bourbon and goofing around on YT. Will never be the same ...and so glad for that.
@@Slick-ng5kf oh cool, I'll have to keep a look out for those! Thanks for the kind words. It's true, Floor has a magical ability to evoke certain emotions in every performance, it's just staggering. Cheers! 🥃🙂
The Eurovision Song Contest is a huge thing here over in Europe. Not my cup of tea, but a contnent wide event. Since a couple of years including even Australia as "Special Guest". Floor couldn't be at beste zangers due to the mentioned surgery. But "Beste angers" made it possible for her to participate from home. :-)
Yes, I get that it's not for everyone! I love it for the cheesy moments and wacky acts. Nothing will beat Lordi "Hard Rock hallelujah" in my opinion. 🙂
@@ThomFoolery1 Definitely the most metal / alternative song ever. I watched the ESC that year only due to Lordi. But, as a German, there is one even more important year in the ESC: Lena winning the ESC with „Satellite“. We watched it in front of the New City Hall in Hannover with thousands of other people from Hannover. You‘ve got to know that Lena isn‘t only German, she‘s also from Hannover 😎🤘 And „Satellite“ is a good song. Her stripped back presentation of the song was so different at the always bombastic (and very often ridiculous) performances ESC. Did you see her winning?
Loreen gave us a justified winning performance with this song and it was basically as good as it would ever get, at least... that is what i thought it would be till i heard Floor sing it. Ofc we all know how ridiculously talented Floor is but i did not expect that it would be this good, i expected good, but...this? she's damn amazing. And yes, that band is so freakin' good, they can and do play anything you throw at them, and play it well, very well. I've come to the conclusion that we need to send her to Eurovision, with this band, how could she not win, impossible!! so... #Floor4Eurovision :P (one can dream right?)
Haha true words! She's on another level. Maybe she can have her own competition... The Floorovision song contest. She'll sing everything and we can all just vote on our favourite.
I don’t ever watch ESC I find it too cheesy, but once every now and then there’s an okay song. This song I know it was played on the radio a lot. I can’t help but think about the drummer every time I see this performance with Floor; he just seems so happy he can finally HIT those drums, LOL
I love how Rolf has started headbanging to Floor now,remembering how he always was this mindblown wide-eyed,O-faced guy in the couch/sofa 🤣I honestly thought this was a tough song for Floor to do,because of the genre and because Loreen is such a strong vocalist,and performer. But i had the same facial expressions when she started around here 1:58 Putting her own little emotional touch to it.....I just need to face the fact that she will prove me wrong every time,regardless of song and genre. I hold Loreens performances of this song the highest though. Vocal wise.....im more torn between the 2 haha.
Rolf is great! They should have a window reserved so we can see his reaction throughout 😂 I know what you mean, both versions are amazing in their own way.
@ThomasPearson, dude cudo's on the pronounciation of 'Jansen' and 'zangers'!

Blind channel that I asked you about will repesent Finland at the Eurovision It’s a really big thing here in Europa And like your reaction floor nailed it She can literally do anything with her voice absolutely amazing and One of the background singers the make one was in a band forming tv show think 20 years ago the band split a few years later but they ware a bit successful k-otic So funny to see him there he wrote the song supergirl can’t remember what band did it but it was a hit back in the days
@@ThomFoolery1 Thanxs the song they perform at Eurovision is dark side but snake is a good one too gg6 from amaranthe joins them in that one and in the video they opend for amaranthe a few tours
I know that Tommy Johansson from sabaton has done the music for some of her home recordings at least? And Hannes could easyly have played those drums! but hey....keep challenging her in a singer competition and watch them all fall to the ground!
Rule #1 for a singer: don't let Floor Jansen cover your songs. Don't! Never! No! Great reaction. Emotional and honest! I must confess, I hate the eurovision song contest. In my eyes, this is a political farce. And I did not know the original knowingly (maybe I have already heard but forgotten. Because mainstream stuff) BUT: as soon as the name Floor Jansen and cover appears, all alarm bells ring with me! Good work. Keep it up. Like you :)
You just have to love Floor! I'm a Eurovision Fan, too (yes, I know most songs are cheesy and sometimes really horrible 🤣) and Euphoria always was a really good song in my opinion. But Floor took it so easily in another dimension! My wish for Germany would be to see Rammstein on stage for us, but that's obviously never going to happen 🤷♀️🤣 Nightwish wanted to go to Eurovision back in the days, but they lost against Lordi I think!
Haha 😂 can you imagine: "How about a round of applause for the Father, Daughter soft folk duo from Denmark... NOW PUT YOUR HORNS UP FOR RAMMSTEIN WITH THEIR SONG "ICH TRINKE DEIN BLUT!" 🤘😈😝
It’s sucks when you have to watch somebody sing your own song better than you. My wife’s own reaction to Floor singing Phantom of the Opera was priceless.
Thank you for this reaction. I say it every time and again and again, Floor is the female reincarnation from Freddy and i am so sad, that they never can be on stage together. Please Brian, make a "Best of Queen" with Floor, the World is waiting for.🤗
The only thing that really bothers me about the video is that they haven't turned down the other's microphones. When screaming almost overwhelms the singing and it scares me almost every time, then it's just annoying. 4:17
AVROTROS does this, becuase it's a show and not MTV. There has to be interaction. The studio quality is for a possible CD and the streaming platforms. But yeah, it can be quite distracting at times.
Tommy Johansson from Majestica and Sabaton also did a cover of Euphoria Years ago : th-cam.com/video/FfunWzB_kow/w-d-xo.html I enjoy the version from Tommy more because it showcases a more extreme vocal range and the symphonic power metal arrangement suits the song better i think.
Swedish hits goes metal! Yes, I've actually heard their stuff but didn't mention it in the video. I was shocked when he hit the high notes in the chorus haha
Love her... I have crossed paths with a handful of famous people in my travels here in the US... and never had a fanboy moment...just MEH.... but if I ever see her I would turn into a blabbering idiot.....
she did it again, she crushed the original version and make it her own and bring the song to the next level
The fact that things like this are "kindergarten level" for her is frightening.... She's totally from another dimension❤
She is really a Valkyrie. :)
Floor couldn't attend the actual show because of her surgery, she wasn't allowed to travel, so they recorded this in her and her husband's studio, with the Marcel Fisser band playing the music. It was shared on the actual show as a link to the youtube song.
They were doing a bunch of favourite Eurovision songs, as in, favourites of the singers, essentially along the Beste Zangers concept.
Having seen the entire show, I can tell you that this was by far the best performance :).
Oh, and the show itself was recorded only a few kiilometers from where I live, the only hilly, or rather undulating part of the Netherlands, and IMO, the most beautiful part of the country :).
Loved your reaction! Thank you!
Warm regards, Wim
P.S.: Loved your "EuFlooria" pun!
Dank je Wim! I appreciate the information. I'll have to find the full show. I did not know there were any hills in the Netherlands, this is news to me. 😂
Cheers! 😃
@@ThomFoolery1 yes, we do have a few hills. Just be careful you don't stumble over them..😆🤗
I don’t know what kind of surgery she had but it hasn’t affected her voice at all. Thank god !!!
@@scray00 she had her gallbladder removed. But there she is...moving like nothing has happened to her.
@@akashvankessel1249 😂😂 True! Good one lol
Great reaction as always. As a Swede myself I think this is one of the best songs ever to have won Eurovision:) And she makes It sound even better. And now when Floor lives in Sweden I expect her to sing for Sweden and win the whole thing next year:)))
Thanks! Hey, Sweden is already too good at Eurovision. If you have Floor, that's just not fair. 😂
@@ThomFoolery1 Hey!! Ireland had Johnny Logan, two wins as an artist, and one or two more as a songwriter. 😉
Hey she is Dutch so for the Netherlands and we win again 🤪
Agree totally, although Waterloo from ABBA is a good second, i was 10 at the time. I would never mind if Floor would ever win a Eurovision for Sweden, as long i would have a chance to hear her heavenly voice. Greetings from the Netherlands.
She is Dutch, lives in Sweden, singing in a Finisch Band. For witch Country she should go to the eurovision Song Contest? A Good reason to not go, i think
What a performance....recovering from surgery and performing like this. Breathtaking!
On top of that, it was the most gorgeous she looked at any video
Doesn't matter what she sings - it will be glorious!
Floorius
🤯Goosebumps at the beginning of the song. Floor is wonderful!. great reaction Thomas 👏🤘
GREAT reaction, Thomas!! Floor hit me the same way - what she does with a song is just STUNNING!
The heavenly voice of Floor gives always euphoric reactions all around the world.
Her low tones are like velvet, her high tones are pure without transition, just going up, up, up...
She has the confidence to go full all the way, and take back when needed without loosing any voice control.
Better with every performance, where does this go?

Yeah, it's crazy. Both vocalists are great in their own way. Floor's name really works for a lot of puns 😂
24 years later and her voice and vocal abilities still runs up and down my spine. Can't wait until October 5th! I've been holding on to these tickets for over a year now and the anticipation is killing me inside lol!
I have tickets to both LA shows, can’t wait!
@@alkaline138 Wish both of you (and well, all of us) that those events can be held...

Hi Thomas great comment thanks yes we all big fans from Floor this is epic thanks .
ladies and gentlemen, I give you , Floor Jansen. Nuff Said!!! 🤘🤩

She really should. I often make a list and then... leave it at home. lol.

@@ThomFoolery1 gonna have to try that one out. I’m a big fan of Angel’s Envy (especially the cask strength) as well as Blanton’s (I was drinking this before John Wick made it cool 😂). Really enjoy your reactions...very real and true ..you can tell artists that really touch a certain part of your soul and Floor has touched a part of my soul that no other has ever done. So glad I stumbled upon her and Nightwish one random night drinking bourbon and goofing around on YT. Will never be the same ...and so glad for that.
@@Slick-ng5kf oh cool, I'll have to keep a look out for those! Thanks for the kind words. It's true, Floor has a magical ability to evoke certain emotions in every performance, it's just staggering.
Cheers! 🥃🙂
The Eurovision Song Contest is a huge thing here over in Europe. Not my cup of tea, but a contnent wide event. Since a couple of years including even Australia as "Special Guest".
Floor couldn't be at beste zangers due to the mentioned surgery. But "Beste angers" made it possible for her to participate from home. :-)
Yes, I get that it's not for everyone! I love it for the cheesy moments and wacky acts. Nothing will beat Lordi "Hard Rock hallelujah" in my opinion. 🙂
@@ThomFoolery1 Definitely the most metal / alternative song ever. I watched the ESC that year only due to Lordi.
But, as a German, there is one even more important year in the ESC: Lena winning the ESC with „Satellite“. We watched it in front of the New City Hall in Hannover with thousands of other people from Hannover. You‘ve got to know that Lena isn‘t only German, she‘s also from Hannover 😎🤘
And „Satellite“ is a good song. Her stripped back presentation of the song was so different at the always bombastic (and very often ridiculous) performances ESC.
Did you see her winning?
I had to listen again just now to remind myself but yes, I vaguely remember. That was definitely refreshing to see a song like that win.
@@ThomFoolery1 This year Finland is sending again a rock song, Blind Channel - Dark side
You literally reacted the same way I did. I have been floored away.
you enter a EuFlooric state of mind and end up with a massive 7 stage floorgasm
Thanks Thomas! Appreciate your dedication 🙏
Loreen gave us a justified winning performance with this song and it was basically as good as it would ever get, at least... that is what i thought it would be till i heard Floor sing it.
Ofc we all know how ridiculously talented Floor is but i did not expect that it would be this good, i expected good, but...this? she's damn amazing.
And yes, that band is so freakin' good, they can and do play anything you throw at them, and play it well, very well.
I've come to the conclusion that we need to send her to Eurovision, with this band, how could she not win, impossible!! so... #Floor4Eurovision :P (one can dream right?)
Haha true words! She's on another level. Maybe she can have her own competition... The Floorovision song contest. She'll sing everything and we can all just vote on our favourite.
@@ThomFoolery1 oooh, good idea!
Euflooria...Eufloorgasm..
Only Can Do Our QUEEN Floor!!!
New subscriber, you are fun to watch. Someone who understands music. Great.
Thank you! I appreciate that. 😁
She really could sing the national phonebook, and still sound great!!
😂 I'd pay to see that.
I don’t ever watch ESC I find it too cheesy, but once every now and then there’s an okay song. This song I know it was played on the radio a lot. I can’t help but think about the drummer every time I see this performance with Floor; he just seems so happy he can finally HIT those drums, LOL
Arcade was great
@@okidoki878 true! As I said sometimes the songs are great! But the majority makes me run away fast 😝
Your Dutch is getting a lot better👍🏻
Dank je! :D
@@ThomFoolery1 graag gedaan😁
I love how Rolf has started headbanging to Floor now,remembering how he always was this mindblown wide-eyed,O-faced guy in the couch/sofa 🤣I honestly thought this was a tough song for Floor to do,because of the genre and because Loreen is such a strong vocalist,and performer. But i had the same facial expressions when she started around here 1:58 Putting her own little emotional touch to it.....I just need to face the fact that she will prove me wrong every time,regardless of song and genre. I hold Loreens performances of this song the highest though. Vocal wise.....im more torn between the 2 haha.
Rolf is great! They should have a window reserved so we can see his reaction throughout 😂
I know what you mean, both versions are amazing in their own way.
@@ThomFoolery1 Totally agree,Rolf embodies how we all feel whenever Floor sings LOL!
A true Goddess!!
Your are the best on TH-cam
🙇♂️🤘
@ThomasPearson, dude cudo's on the pronounciation of 'Jansen' and 'zangers'! It just struck me while I was rewatching your video, haha! 👍🏻 👍🏻
Btw, I noticed that you never reacted to a song of Floor's 'little' sideproject called 'Northward', right?
If you ever want to, 'While Love Died' the first one on the album will really get your spirits up buddy! Get ready for an angry Floor!
Cheers! 🎼🎶🔊🤘
Thanks mate! Someone corrected me recently so I'm trying to pronounce better.
Thanks for the suggestion! 😃🤘
Blind channel that I asked you about will repesent Finland at the Eurovision
It’s a really big thing here in Europa
And like your reaction floor nailed it
She can literally do anything with her voice absolutely amazing and
One of the background singers the make one was in a band forming tv show think 20 years ago the band split a few years later but they ware a bit successful k-otic
So funny to see him there he wrote the song supergirl can’t remember what band did it but it was a hit back in the days
Cheers Nina! Yes I have Blind
Blind channel saved. I'll try and get to them soon. 🙂
@@ThomFoolery1 Thanxs the song they perform at Eurovision is dark side but snake is a good one too gg6 from amaranthe joins them in that one and in the video they opend for amaranthe a few tours
Excellent title haha.
I know that Tommy Johansson from sabaton has done the music for some of her home recordings at least? And Hannes could easyly have played those drums! but hey....keep challenging her in a singer competition and watch them all fall to the ground!
Rule #1 for a singer: don't let Floor Jansen cover your songs. Don't! Never! No!
Great reaction. Emotional and honest!
I must confess, I hate the eurovision song contest. In my eyes, this is a political farce. And I did not know the original knowingly (maybe I have already heard but forgotten. Because mainstream stuff) BUT: as soon as the name Floor Jansen and cover appears, all alarm bells ring with me! Good work. Keep it up. Like you :)
That is fair enough Michael, I understand haha. I like to just get drunk and laugh and how cheesy it is. 😄
You just have to love Floor!
I'm a Eurovision Fan, too (yes, I know most songs are cheesy and sometimes really horrible 🤣) and Euphoria always was a really good song in my opinion. But Floor took it so easily in another dimension!
My wish for Germany would be to see Rammstein on stage for us, but that's obviously never going to happen 🤷♀️🤣
Nightwish wanted to go to Eurovision back in the days, but they lost against Lordi I think!
Haha 😂 can you imagine:
"How about a round of applause for the Father, Daughter soft folk duo from Denmark... NOW PUT YOUR HORNS UP FOR RAMMSTEIN WITH THEIR SONG "ICH TRINKE DEIN BLUT!" 🤘😈😝
@@ThomFoolery1 😂🤘 we would win!!
Eu-Flooria doesn't sound that bad at all. In fact it sounds pretty darn accurate to me.
I dig you. I dig you.
It’s sucks when you have to watch somebody sing your own song better than you. My wife’s own reaction to Floor singing Phantom of the Opera was priceless.
Since you entered the Eurovision realm, you absolutely NEED to react to Finland’s entry Dark Side by Blind Channel. YOU NEED TO, HEAR ME? 😅
Loved it my friend. I don't think she needs her gall bladder to sing.
Apparently not. 😂
@square-enix I need a FF with Floor Jansen!!
Thank you for this reaction. I say it every time and again and again, Floor is the female reincarnation from Freddy and i am so sad, that they never can be on stage together. Please Brian, make a "Best of Queen" with Floor, the World is waiting for.🤗
We should start a petition to make this happen.
@@ThomFoolery1 Yes we do.
I've seen that someone has done that, it's good :)
I may like the term Euflooria better than Floorgasm! I need some time to let that simmer lol!
If you're still in the mood for Nightwish, check out Patty Gurdy's cover of Over The Hills and Far Away
If you like songfestival you should check out Duncan Laurence and his winning song Arcade ,for the netherlands
if you like her voice watch phatom of the opera from floor jansen and henk poort
The are so many colors in FJ
EuFlooria indeed! lol
You should see the mix that Paashaas has made of it, you will be supprised.
The only thing that really bothers me about the video is that they haven't turned down the other's microphones. When screaming almost overwhelms the singing and it scares me almost every time, then it's just annoying. 4:17
Yeah I can understand that. It was a bit loud.
Thanks for the tip on this one. 🙂
AVROTROS does this, becuase it's a show and not MTV. There has to be interaction. The studio quality is for a possible CD and the streaming platforms. But yeah, it can be quite distracting at times.
@@jandouwes6149 I'm not talking about turning it off but turning it down. 😉
I requested a song soooo long ago and I’m
Still waiting .....
Which one was it? I literally have hundreds haha
Katahdin- Separation and to the darkest place. If you like it there have a few new singles out
One day Floor will go to the Songcontest for The Netherlands.
How many points will she score???
Tommy Johansson from Majestica and Sabaton also did a cover of Euphoria Years ago : th-cam.com/video/FfunWzB_kow/w-d-xo.html
I enjoy the version from Tommy more because it showcases a more extreme vocal range and the symphonic power metal arrangement suits the song better i think.
Swedish hits goes metal! Yes, I've actually heard their stuff but didn't mention it in the video. I was shocked when he hit the high notes in the chorus haha
Love her... I have crossed paths with a handful of famous people in my travels here in the US... and never had a fanboy moment...just MEH.... but if I ever see her I would turn into a blabbering idiot.....
