nah.. i think ghost love score is great to introduce people to floor,.. but when they allready know her there are way better songs out there with her... storytime, romanticide, poet and the pendulum....just to name a few
Greetings from The Netherlands , The Nighwish Army is coming, Floor Jansen is Singing with one of her Idols, Henk Poort is a Fully fledgeded Baritone Opera singer,
There's no going back now....Floor is the best singer on the planet. She can sing anything at the highest level. Can't wait to tag along for the ride. :)
On another note. When Floor asked Henk to do this duet, he did it on the proviso that he could perform it live with her at the next Nightwish concert. So... we can expect a live version with the whole band at some point in the near future. I know! Exciting! Right?
Great reaction! I love seeing others enjoy Floor's emotional performances. In an interview, she said she's an empath which explains how she "feels" every song she performs and how we all join her on that emotional rollercoaster with each song. You gotta hear and see all her Live performances with Nightwish starting with Wacken 2013, Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires and Tampere saving the "Poet and the Pendulum" and "The Greatest Show on Earth" for at least a dozen or so songs out until you get to know the band members more and why each song is written. Please, more Floor, you haven't even chipped away at her range and stage presence!
You have just met Floor !!!!!!! You are now addicted like the rest of us. She is totally incredible .Enjoy your journey down the Nightwish and Floor rabbit hole .. Love your reaction .Floor is the nicest person in the world apart from being the BEST at everything Performance.
So you’ve done both versions of the phantom, now I think you should do floors version of Ghost Love Score from Wacken 2013 since you’ve done Tarja’s :)
I'm late to the party! Happy belated birthday! I'm with you on the Phantom Of The Opera - but I've been listening to it since the 'first' version with Sarah Brightman & Michael Crawford was released in 1988 (yup, I'm old). But I LOVE that musical! Floor is absolutely stunning - in beauty and in voice!! Henk was the perfect compliment to that (and considering he 'IS' the Phantom in the Dutch production - just wonderful). Fantastic version!!
You can't go wrong if you delve into the Beste Zangers 2019. It's not a competition, it is a group of singers who sing for each other. One week one of them is on the couch and it there night, and the rest of the cast sing songs either written by, or important to the "couch sitter". If you find the ones with the English translations you get a real feel of the back stories. Floor slays every episode, singing in Dutch, German, Spanish, and English.The rest of the cast are very good as well. Enjoy. ;-)
Happy belated birthday.... Great reaction video, and yes, it is great fun watching others react to Floors amazing voice... Including yours😀..... Many, many happy returns.....
I love your reaction to this performance and cant wait for you to dig deeper into Nightwish. I would suggest hearing Floor's version of Ghost Love Score (Wacken 2013) next if you want to see the same song Tarja did but with Floors vocals. If you want to check out a completely different song, Everdream (Wacken 2013) would also be a good next step. Always love your reactions and cant wait for more!
Hi I just discovered your reaction, I found it SO interesting that this is your first time hearing Floor. Most people are introduced via her performances with Nightwish. She's phenomenal, this was a really big moment for fans of hers in this show, Beste Zangers, and this was the final performance of the season.
Thank you for this. Seeing your reaction of joy makes my day. The other people on the couch are all singers from different genres of music. All are dutch and most are well known in the netherlands. Floor was not very well known in her own country because metal is not a very big type of music there. Every episode one singer is in the spotlight and they get interviewed about their life and career and the other singers perform a song that is from their repetoire or has a special meaning to them. The first episode Floor started the show with an opera aria in German singing it for Henk who is an idol for her ever since he played the Phantom. She sang in german, dutch, spanish and english on this show and every time she killed it. If you would like to see how she handled Shallow from Lady gaga watch th-cam.com/video/aZcvTYQ3HRw/w-d-xo.html
To give some background, "De beste zangers" is a Dutch TV program. It is all about Dutch singers performing each other's songs for a whole season. It has a competition element in it. They have to judge each other. Floor Jansen had some medical problems and could not perform for a while. So now she could again, she was really going for it. Besides that, Floor in her young years was a great admirer of Henk Poort. So she was really honored to be in the show and perform with him. The flip in Henk's voice to a metally sound was a tribute from Henk to Floor. She did not expect that (very difficult to do for an opera singer).
Watch Nightwish wacken 2013, every song on that is a masterpiece. then when you have recovered from that you may just be ready to listen to the poet and the pendulum from Wembley.
Dear singers, is a TV program with famous Dutch singers who take turns singing for each other, who have a meaning for one of the singers who have their turn. This is done in a mostly tropical location in a holiday like mood.
every season in this programme six vocalists come together. One of them will be in the spotlight that episode.during the episode the other vocalists singing songs for the spotlight person. this are songs of him/her self or music that has or had impact in their life or career. it's not a compatition more a tribute. the vocalist in the spotlight will then say wich artist did it the best..loved your reaction. greets from the netherlands.
Deadgrl, you have to react to Nightwish Ghost Love Score, live at Wacken 2013, and other Floors performances at Beste Zangers 2019. By the way, the hole concert at Wacken is amazing! Floor is a goddess
Nightwish can't do wrong with either singers version. Crazy thing is it's such an easy song to mess up and they nail it over and over and over. This song will always be my favorite from any Broadway or opera production ever ! Great reaction
All Floors performances off that show are amazing but there are 2 other that really stand out to me. The first is a song called "Winner", if you do a reaction to that please find the clip that starts with Tim Akkerman explaining why he wrote the song, it will make your reaction way better. The other is Floors version of Lada Gaga's song "Shallow". And don't worry, I am sure Floor could sing the alphabet and it would bring me to tears! lol.
What a lovely reaction, thank you for feeling this and sharing it with us. I subscribed especially to witness you discover more Floor There is so much to unpack as you can see in all the suggestions people will make. There is Operatic Floor, High pitched Floor, Low pitched growling Floor, Poppy Floor, Disney Floor, all kinds of languages Floor and the list goes on. I will be there to watch you unravel everything Floor has to give. Oh and pronounciation wise...its Floor Yahnsen, that sounds the closest to what its supposed to be.
The Valkyrie Goddess of Metal is a Dramatic Soprano but she can sing higher than what a Dramatic Soprano can do. Here she reached a D6 but according to the Charismatic Voice, she can go higher. Check out; The Oh mio babbino caro and the Vilja Lied ( beste zangers ) You pronounced it correctly.
@@n5iln outdated bro. She did in Phantom of the Opera a D6 and according to the Charismatic Voice even higher. She did also a Glissando ( a slide of 3 octaves ) in Romanticide. Let's not forget, she is a self proclaimed Vocal nerd. She can do it all, from Death growls to very high notes.
@@nathanweiss5174 I believe it is lower. In Romanticide it was a e3 to e6 . That is higher than D6. The only one who knows it is the Charismatic Voice. She is a opera singer and Floor had opera training.
Please do more of the beste zangers 2019. there are 6 shows and 1 for the duets. In each show they sing songs for the other artists. I think you gonna love it
Since this program Henk Poort has appeared live in concert with Nightwish to do this. Henk is a marvellous singer too and, whoever he sings with, he improves them too.
Hey, first off, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!! :) Secondly, you should watch this performance with the before and after commentary. I think you can find it on Dailymotion. Anyways, you are bang on when you said the people watching were overwhelmed. Go check out what they said! :) Oh, and definitely, Ghost Love Score, Wachen 2013. Storytime from that same concert. I Want My Tears Back from Buenos Aires 2019. Gabriel will find you if he hasn't already. I consider Floor to be in the elite of elite singers, with her and Freddie Mercury vying for top spot. Ghost Love Score from Wachen 2013 is the best PERFORMANCE I have witnessed in my 54 years on this rock. Which reminds me, I wish I was 27 years younger! :P
Happy Birthday! Very happy we can now watch your reaction to Phantom with Floor and Henk! Floor has many vocal facets to the brilliant diamond she is. What a present for your birthday! I think a reaction to the performance of Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013, will blow you away. I subscribed because I believe once you experience that song, you will fall in love with every band member as much as you are with Floor. With Nightwish, her brilliant performance will be seared, like Phantom, inside your mind. Wait until you meet Tuomas, and his lyrics, sung by Floor.
This score is a cover of the same Nightwish version that Tarja and Marco performed. Henk Poort is Floor's childhood hero/influence. He surprised her by singing in a growl for the very first time.
Greetings Deadgrl. I hear the marching feet of the Nightwish Army!!! Welcome to Floor Jansen, the 6 foot 1, Dutch Goddess of all things vocal. She sings clean, soft, hard, loud, with distortion, growls, and as you heard, sings opera as well. You will never again experience such a versatile singer in your life. You are going to love your journey. The rabbit hole goes deep, so buckle up and enjoy the ride. More Floor? There is a standard setup we take newcomers through and it begins at the Wacken Music Festival in Germany 2013. The first song will be "Ghost Love Score" official live, and just so you know we will keep you at this venue for a while. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘
Ghost Love Score Live...... Floor really cuts loose and ....wow. Happy Birthday, belated. Floor is.... Yeah. She's in many ways indescribable. Congrats on your first Floorgasm.
The Metal Gods looked down from the Heavens and spoke these words to all of mankind. I have blessed you on this day of 02/21/1981 ( Floor’s Birthday) an Angel of Metal and she will be known as Floor Jansen.
Happy birthday beautiful Deadgrl Superstar. Love your eye makeup! Now you have heard a little Floor Jansen (Yahn-sen). There is so much more incredible music to hear from Floor and Nightwish. This show is so great. Not a competition. It brings together several singers from different genres and each week they honor one of the singers buy doing a song for them. I wish we had a show like this in the States. So much fun to watch the other singers react to the songs being sung for them. Floor has had both operatic training as well as musical theater training. On this show she does everything from Operatic arias to a cover of Shallow from Lady Gaga. See you for the next great reaction my friend. Peace. 👀👏🎭
Facts about floor She's a classically trained singer and she's a vocal coach she went to a rock academy and studied musical theater and opera she can sing in 8 languages and has been doing this since she was 16 when she joined her first band After Forever they were together 12 years and then disbanded then she had ReVamp for a few years and while in that band she was singing for nightwish and she was singing for them a few months until they made her their permanent singer she's been with them since 2013
Happy Birthday, and I love the way you did your eyes. You must be a professional makeup artist! I bet all your girlfriends ask you to do theirs! Ha Ha! Two quick points: 1) on the show itself, some people notice it was raining during the song and some don't. The facility was a tent like structure and it started to rain when they were filming, and the roof leaked as they were singing. If you rewatch it you can see the water dripping in the pool in the background. Also, it is said (but I can't prove this) that the "thunder" sound you hear at the very first when the organ starts was REAL thunder, not a sound effect. Amazing then how Floor and Henk were able to keep it together and still sing! Could you do that? 2) I agree with many of the other commenters recommendations (I read them all), but 2 small notes: a) for Floor herself, Beste Zangers is best and "Shallow" is very popular, however b) based on your reaction to the more beautiful parts of "Phantom" and your other comments, I might suggest that the Nightwish performance of "The Poet and the Pendulum -- Official Video" at th-cam.com/video/iEzZRMthhXU/w-d-xo.html would be your best bet. It has many beautiful parts where Floor sings in such a high, beautiful, sweet tone that is very emotional, especially in the middle parts (called "The Pacific" in the song). And at 14 minutes long it has more there for you to dig into than some of the Beste Zangers episodes. The version I have recommended includes the lyrics at the bottom, which is important in this particular song. Keep well, and I'll try and check out that second channel !
Floor and Henk strike again hehehe So many people are left speechless after watching this performance, to me that is one of the most fun parts in watching the reacts to this song in particular :) Loved your reaction :)
Wellwell. Finally we are here. Meet the the best singer in the world: the Dutch singer/songwriter and a vocal coach Floor Jansen. For me this is the Duet of the Century. Great acting chemistry between the singers and top notch singing, of course. As you said, Henk Poort has performed the Eric's role for hundreds of times. And Floor was fangirling him when young. And now they managed to do it together and the rest is history. There are some other Floor's performances on this BZ2019 show, and they are all excellent. And don't you ever forget, that Floor is a singer for a Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. Try next the song "Ever dream" from the Wacken 2013 concert. Greetings from Northern Finland! ⛄ And something for the Christmas. You've done some wonderful Voctave reactions, but not the best for the upcoming season: "Voctave feat. Mark Lowry: Mary did you know?" The best Cristmas song ever (IMHO). 🎅👍
if you want to hear more of Floors diversity and get to know her on a more personal level you should see her on Beste Zingers. It is a show out of the Netherlands where seven well known singers put their own spin on each others songs. Only one of the singers had heard of Nightwish and Floor Jensen so they were all curious to hear how this woman from a metal band would perform their songs. Lets just say the was a lot of shock and awe. You can find Floors performances here: th-cam.com/users/jenniezelfvideos or watch full episodes here: www.dailymotion.com/xpinkeu/videos
The program is made for Dutch TV. The idea behind the show is that they invite 7 vocalist from different genre's and each episode one of them is at the center of attention. The other vocalist will either perform a song from the artist or sing a song that has a special meaning to them. This clip was from the 8th (last) episode where they all sang duets. Even though Floor Jansen has toured the world several times she was relatively unknown in the Netherlands. That changed radically after this show aired. The woman is ridiculously versatile. She can literally sing any song in any style she likes. The male in this show was a classically trained opera singer who performed the phantom in original Dutch version of the show. Andrew Lloyd Webber considered him one of the best. Floor looked up to him as he was a kind of vocal hero to her since she was a child so she could not pass on the opportunity to perform this song with him. :-) If you to want to look into her pick any song of the show, it really does not matter all them are brilliant. As recommendation i would pick her version of the Lady Gaga song called "Shallow" th-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/w-d-xo.html
Watch ever other performance from her in that show as well, mind blowing. This was actually the last performance of the 2019 season, each year their last show is a duet, and Henk only agreed to do this on the condition that the next time Nightwish came through the Netherlands he was able to do it again with them on stage. She's total fangirling seeing up there with him.
Everyone of floors performances on this show are world class. You just hit the tip of the iceberg. I would recommend doving deeper and watching her either at the wacken concert with night wish or her solo performances on this show either way she's the best female vocalist on the planet in my opinion
Beste zangers is a celebration of music. 7 artists take turns to sing a song that is either from the other singer or means a lot to them. This song is from the last episode full of duets. Please check out more content of this show. It's great. Henk Poort was the Dutch Phantom,
They were singing in a tent in Ibiza and it was raining very very hard and the roof was leaking. If you watch again you can see rain falling down in front of the camera. LOL.
This singers have each a day that they are in the spot and the last week they do a duet. They all can make their choice with ho they will do it. Floor was choose Henk with the phantom. A other singer Tim Akkerman choose Floor to do Shallow. Henk choose Emma Heesters to do Vivo Per Lei with him. If you will react to more of this show then I recommend you to use the videos of jenniezelf. Here is a example Floor with Tim, singing Shallow. th-cam.com/video/ZF_JzPuneN4/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/3Pf7Xd3IVtU/w-d-xo.html
"I love watching other people watching her!" - that's what the rest of us are here for as well, dear :) RE Repo - there was a summer at our house where for whatever reason my gang decided they needed to watch Repo like 3 times a week, the entire summer. Especially during (middle/high-school) sleepovers. Haven't seen it since, and now I feel a Mighty Need - so thanks for that!
Beste Zangers is wonderful, their band is awesome too and in such a small intimate setting. Worth watching all of floors songs! Ok, so now you have heard Floor sing. I see you have already reacted to Phantom and Ghost Love Score by Nightwsh with Tarja their Original singer, she is both beautiful and sounds great. I grew up listening to that version of the band and love them. That version of Phantom is brilliant with Marko screaming as the phantom. I do not compare the singers against each other as I love both versions of the band and the singers are both brilliant in their own rights. So now its time to check out Ghost Love Score again. Please watch the version from Wacken 2013 as its the best version (with Floor as vocalist) in many opinions. You would never tell that Floor had only been singing with the band for a few months when this was recorded. If you want to listen to more after that work your way through the whole concert it is so good. Im sure others will guide you through any more Floor / Nightwish tracks as there are quite a few and all are excellent. Take Care and Stay Safe
Cant wait for your reaction: Nightwish - Ghost love score, Storytime, Greatest Show on Earth, Poet an the Pendulum by Floor Jansen ect. There is so much to enjoy.
I think one of the other guests (Samantha?) commented on that big of a performance in that small of a venue. That it was almost overwhelming (in a good way).
Happy belated Birthday! When you begin your Christmas/Holiday music, be sure to check out Floor singing "O Holy Night" in Finnish in gorgeous operatic metal style! "Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö - Floor Jansen (17.12. Espoo, Metro Areena): th-cam.com/video/HPDMC84vmdg/w-d-xo.html. Not to be missed! :)
Happy belated birthday. The thunder right at the beginning isn't an effect, it's real thunder. There was a really bad storm outside while they recorded this. You can even see the rain coming in through the roof.
Check out Ghost Love Score Wacken 2013 it’s with Foor she was with the band for 10 months but was not really officially joined the band as a full time member until a few months later. Don’t know your genre of music exactly but If you like Ghost Love Score you will obviously love the 100 or so Nightwish. Happy Birthday and for your birthday present check out Floor Jansens cover of Let It Go from Disney’s Frozen & to expand your symphonic music genre, try Epica with feat Floor Jansen their Retrospective show , Sancta Terra. Nightwish fans love Epica and visa versa! Again Happy Birthday from an old metal/rock head!🎉🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I love your reactions and the honest emotions that you share with us through your channel. I don't normally comment on any channel but when I saw that you are finally reacting to Floor I thought of putting forth a request. Please listen to her version of Ghost Love Score from the 2013 Wacken concert. You need not do a reaction video but I believe that you would really enjoy it. Thank you for this and your other channel.
If you haven’t been listening to Nightwish with Floor Jansen then you’re in for a treat. I suggest the Wacken 2013 concert official live performance of Storytime as a good place to start. 😄🤘 Happy 27th Birthday! 🎊 (I’m 50 years older than you 🙀)
Sarah Brightman going to the house is one of my favorite moments of that movie. :) Still, listen to the others. You will not regret it. Ghost love score, Wacken version. We will watch :)
Happy birthday a little late. I'm just glad they finally unblocked the video. I loved her but I didn't care for him. I would love to see her duet with David Draiman of Disturbed, that would be epic. Speaking of Christmas, Vocal Point just released a song last week "Believe (Polar Express medley)" with Rise Up Children's Choir. Peter Hollens also did "Believe" with Vocal Point and One Voice Children's Choir's, which was good, but this one's ever better. A great Nightwish song, if you have about 20 minutes, is "The Greatest Show on Earth". Any live concert version. One Voice Children's Choir's along with BYU (Brigham Young University) and BYU Men's Choir were the "friends" in "Carol of the bells" with Peter Hollens and friends video you watched last Christmas.
What u didn't realize at the time was Floor was singing with someone she idolized when she was growing up. So guess ud say her dream to sing with him came true.
Honestly the way Marko sings the phantom should be a thing. The baritone singer with no real rasp do not give the tortured menace to the phantom that Marko brings. Floor is great. I like Tarja's performance overall in the official nightwish video.
Love you and your reactions !! My great-grand daughter shares your birthday and is a year younger than you. I've enjoyed your reactions for a couple years now. I might just subscribe. Love you !!
Phantom is s musical not an opera and my all time favorite you are the same age as my granddaughter and i would love to get her to appreciate these pieces of music❤
So by by now it’s obvious that you have to check Floor in Nightwish. Revisit Ghost Love Score..wacken open air 2013. And from there it will be a feast of hearing her vocal abilities combined with her excellent way of making you feeling your feelings...:) The other songs in the beste zangers will show her ability to sing basically anything she wants. The show is no competition but a celebration of music. Each week there’s one artist in the center of attention and the othe artists will sing a song from that artist of a song that’s important to them. Floor at that point was not wellingen in The Netherlands her homecountry. Metal gets no airplay on radio or television. After the series she hit it big. In the first episodes it’s fun to see the other artists being surprised by her abilities because only Tim Akkerman knew her. She showed that being a metalhead you can be a great and fantastic artist/singer. And there isn’t a single number from Nightwish shown live that she doesn’t Shiite like the Valkyrie Metal Godess she is....have fun!
Beautiful and emotional reaction. It's a joy to watch you enjoy it. And if you are going to do more reactions from Floor from this show 'Beste Zangers (translated as Best Singers or Dear Singers) take the versions from Denise Hoffs (from Dailymotion in HD) or the channel from Jenniezelf , they have intros and outros to the performance with English subs. You get to know why a specific song is chosen and you get to know Floor Jansen a little bit more. And be ready to be surprised and amazed. I subscribe in advance.
Floor has no equal, she can sing whatever she wants to sing, all the songs from Nightwish wich there are a lot that wern't whritten for het she owns every song she crushed the original songs piece by piece a great starter for your Nightwish experience because it will be a journey for you that you're gonna love but ill recomend you gohst love score at wacken 2013 official live version and you will blow your mind have fun and thnx for your reaction....goosebumps body chills emotions are called FLOORGASMS and you will get a lot of them exploring Floor in Nightwish
The Tarja version with Marko is unparalleled, but Floor is the most charismatic and talented woman on the face of the Earth. She's a Valkyrie, she's the Queen of Metal.
Now you have met Floor. Watch and react to Ghost Love Score live Wacken 2013. You are welcome!
up
Nah, the Argentina show!
nah.. i think ghost love score is great to introduce people to floor,.. but when they allready know her there are way better songs out there with her... storytime, romanticide, poet and the pendulum....just to name a few
This. Very this.
Greetings from The Netherlands , The Nighwish Army is coming, Floor Jansen is Singing with one of her Idols, Henk Poort is a Fully fledgeded Baritone Opera singer,
Not to mention THE Dutch Phantom and one of ALW favorite Phantoms.
To me Floor has one of the most versatile voices around, she has not ruled out any singing style but learned from it to enhance her range.
There's no going back now....Floor is the best singer on the planet. She can sing anything at the highest level. Can't wait to tag along for the ride. :)
It doesnt have to stop for the holidays. You could check out Floor doing O holy Night and Floor and Marko's Ave Maria, both from Raskasta Joulua. 🤘❤
And the video to "Walking in the air"
all the renditions of Floor Jansen from Beste Zangers are DIFFERENT!!!! so.....
On another note. When Floor asked Henk to do this duet, he did it on the proviso that he could perform it live with her at the next Nightwish concert.
So... we can expect a live version with the whole band at some point in the near future.
I know! Exciting! Right?
Try “Sancta Terra” with Epica & Floor Jansen at the Live Retrospect Show - you’ll enjoy it!
Those ladies are the best
Great reaction! I love seeing others enjoy Floor's emotional performances. In an interview, she said she's an empath which explains how she "feels" every song she performs and how we all join her on that emotional rollercoaster with each song. You gotta hear and see all her Live performances with Nightwish starting with Wacken 2013, Wembley Arena, Buenos Aires and Tampere saving the "Poet and the Pendulum" and "The Greatest Show on Earth" for at least a dozen or so songs out until you get to know the band members more and why each song is written. Please, more Floor, you haven't even chipped away at her range and stage presence!
Great reaction! I love seeing others enjoy Floor's emotional performances.
You have just met Floor !!!!!!! You are now addicted like the rest of us.
She is totally incredible .Enjoy your journey down the Nightwish and Floor rabbit hole ..
Love your reaction .Floor is the nicest person in the world apart from being the BEST at everything Performance.
So you’ve done both versions of the phantom, now I think you should do floors version of Ghost Love Score from Wacken 2013 since you’ve done Tarja’s :)
Instablaster...
Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas arent bad either...
Hey, Floor Jansen Frozen cover Let it go awesome just released recently, also happy birthday 🎁
I'm late to the party! Happy belated birthday! I'm with you on the Phantom Of The Opera - but I've been listening to it since the 'first' version with Sarah Brightman & Michael Crawford was released in 1988 (yup, I'm old). But I LOVE that musical! Floor is absolutely stunning - in beauty and in voice!! Henk was the perfect compliment to that (and considering he 'IS' the Phantom in the Dutch production - just wonderful).
Fantastic version!!
Love how deeply you get into the music! Watching you is a breath of fresh air!
Can’t wait for you to hear more of Floor!
You can't go wrong if you delve into the Beste Zangers 2019. It's not a competition, it is a group of singers who sing for each other. One week one of them is on the couch and it there night, and the rest of the cast sing songs either written by, or important to the "couch sitter". If you find the ones with the English translations you get a real feel of the back stories. Floor slays every episode, singing in Dutch, German, Spanish, and English.The rest of the cast are very good as well. Enjoy. ;-)
Happy belated birthday.... Great reaction video, and yes, it is great fun watching others react to Floors amazing voice... Including yours😀..... Many, many happy returns.....
I love your reaction to this performance and cant wait for you to dig deeper into Nightwish. I would suggest hearing Floor's version of Ghost Love Score (Wacken 2013) next if you want to see the same song Tarja did but with Floors vocals. If you want to check out a completely different song, Everdream (Wacken 2013) would also be a good next step. Always love your reactions and cant wait for more!
Hi I just discovered your reaction, I found it SO interesting that this is your first time hearing Floor. Most people are introduced via her performances with Nightwish. She's phenomenal, this was a really big moment for fans of hers in this show, Beste Zangers, and this was the final performance of the season.
Thank you for this. Seeing your reaction of joy makes my day. The other people on the couch are all singers from different genres of music. All are dutch and most are well known in the netherlands. Floor was not very well known in her own country because metal is not a very big type of music there. Every episode one singer is in the spotlight and they get interviewed about their life and career and the other singers perform a song that is from their repetoire or has a special meaning to them. The first episode Floor started the show with an opera aria in German singing it for Henk who is an idol for her ever since he played the Phantom. She sang in german, dutch, spanish and english on this show and every time she killed it. If you would like to see how she handled Shallow from Lady gaga watch th-cam.com/video/aZcvTYQ3HRw/w-d-xo.html
To give some background, "De beste zangers" is a Dutch TV program. It is all about Dutch singers performing each other's songs for a whole season. It has a competition element in it. They have to judge each other. Floor Jansen had some medical problems and could not perform for a while. So now she could again, she was really going for it. Besides that, Floor in her young years was a great admirer of Henk Poort. So she was really honored to be in the show and perform with him. The flip in Henk's voice to a metally sound was a tribute from Henk to Floor. She did not expect that (very difficult to do for an opera singer).
Watch Nightwish wacken 2013, every song on that is a masterpiece.
then when you have recovered from that you may just be ready to listen to the poet and the pendulum from Wembley.
Floor's looks, Your looks...just perfect, haha! Beautiful reaction!
Dear singers, is a TV program with famous Dutch singers who take turns singing for each other, who have a meaning for one of the singers who have their turn.
This is done in a mostly tropical location in a holiday like mood.
every season in this programme six vocalists come together. One of them will be in the spotlight that episode.during the episode the other vocalists singing songs for the spotlight person. this are songs of him/her self or music that has or had impact in their life or career. it's not a compatition more a tribute. the vocalist in the spotlight will then say wich artist did it the best..loved your reaction. greets from the netherlands.
"i love watching people watch them" yea me too, hence i watch reaction to Nightwish ALOT!
Deadgrl, you have to react to Nightwish Ghost Love Score, live at Wacken 2013, and other Floors performances at Beste Zangers 2019. By the way, the hole concert at Wacken is amazing! Floor is a goddess
You should heart Floor with Nightwish... Checkout "Ghost Love Score" Live at Wacken 2013..
Nightwish can't do wrong with either singers version. Crazy thing is it's such an easy song to mess up and they nail it over and over and over. This song will always be my favorite from any Broadway or opera production ever ! Great reaction
Henk is the favourite performer from Webber of the phantom, which he did over 600 times in a few decades. No pressure;)
All Floors performances off that show are amazing but there are 2 other that really stand out to me. The first is a song called "Winner", if you do a reaction to that please find the clip that starts with Tim Akkerman explaining why he wrote the song, it will make your reaction way better. The other is Floors version of Lada Gaga's song "Shallow". And don't worry, I am sure Floor could sing the alphabet and it would bring me to tears! lol.
Henks final "SING FOR MEERE!!!" makes it that much more epic. Fuckin hell this version hypes me up.
LOVEEEEEEED your reaction. It was honest,.. full passion.. thank you that you choose this song, to give a reaction
keep up the good work
Happy Birthday! And welcome to the Valkyrie!
What a lovely reaction, thank you for feeling this and sharing it with us. I subscribed especially to witness you discover more Floor There is so much to unpack as you can see in all the suggestions people will make. There is Operatic Floor, High pitched Floor, Low pitched growling Floor, Poppy Floor, Disney Floor, all kinds of languages Floor and the list goes on. I will be there to watch you unravel everything Floor has to give. Oh and pronounciation wise...its Floor Yahnsen, that sounds the closest to what its supposed to be.
The Valkyrie Goddess of Metal is a Dramatic Soprano but she can sing higher than what a Dramatic Soprano can do.
Here she reached a D6 but according to the Charismatic Voice, she can go higher.
Check out; The Oh mio babbino caro and the Vilja Lied ( beste zangers )
You pronounced it correctly.
Wikipedia says her top end is F6.
@@n5iln outdated bro. She did in Phantom of the Opera a D6 and according to the Charismatic Voice even higher. She did also a Glissando ( a slide of 3 octaves ) in Romanticide.
Let's not forget, she is a self proclaimed Vocal nerd. She can do it all, from Death growls to very high notes.
@@eddiecreutzburg7375 an F6 would be higher tho right?
@@nathanweiss5174 I believe it is lower. In Romanticide it was a e3 to e6 . That is higher than D6.
The only one who knows it is the Charismatic Voice.
She is a opera singer and Floor had opera training.
Please do more of the beste zangers 2019. there are 6 shows and 1 for the duets. In each show they sing songs for the other artists. I think you gonna love it
Since this program Henk Poort has appeared live in concert with Nightwish to do this. Henk is a marvellous singer too and, whoever he sings with, he improves them too.
Hey, first off, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!! :)
Secondly, you should watch this performance with the before and after commentary. I think you can find it on Dailymotion. Anyways, you are bang on when you said the people watching were overwhelmed. Go check out what they said! :)
Oh, and definitely, Ghost Love Score, Wachen 2013. Storytime from that same concert. I Want My Tears Back from Buenos Aires 2019.
Gabriel will find you if he hasn't already. I consider Floor to be in the elite of elite singers, with her and Freddie Mercury vying for top spot. Ghost Love Score from Wachen 2013 is the best PERFORMANCE I have witnessed in my 54 years on this rock.
Which reminds me, I wish I was 27 years younger! :P
Happy Birthday! Very happy we can now watch your reaction to Phantom with Floor and Henk! Floor has many vocal facets to the brilliant diamond she is. What a present for your birthday! I think a reaction to the performance of Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013, will blow you away. I subscribed because I believe once you experience that song, you will fall in love with every band member as much as you are with Floor. With Nightwish, her brilliant performance will be seared, like Phantom, inside your mind. Wait until you meet Tuomas, and his lyrics, sung by Floor.
floor is our dutch metal goddes proud to be dutch
This score is a cover of the same Nightwish version that Tarja and Marco performed. Henk Poort is Floor's childhood hero/influence. He surprised her by singing in a growl for the very first time.
Greetings Deadgrl.
I hear the marching feet of the Nightwish Army!!!
Welcome to Floor Jansen, the 6 foot 1, Dutch Goddess of all things vocal. She sings clean, soft, hard, loud, with distortion, growls, and as you heard, sings opera as well. You will never again experience such a versatile singer in your life.
You are going to love your journey. The rabbit hole goes deep, so buckle up and enjoy the ride.
More Floor?
There is a standard setup we take newcomers through and it begins at the Wacken Music Festival in Germany 2013. The first song will be "Ghost Love Score" official live, and just so you know we will keep you at this venue for a while.
Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘
Hey, you should definitely check out Henk poort doing the sound of silence disturbed version on beste zangers, awesome 😎
Your reactions is priceless...so much fun wathing! Thank you!
Ghost Love Score Live...... Floor really cuts loose and ....wow. Happy Birthday, belated. Floor is.... Yeah. She's in many ways indescribable. Congrats on your first Floorgasm.
Welcome to the world of Floor ,Nightwish army will be with you all the way!
The Metal Gods looked down from the Heavens and spoke these words to all of mankind. I have blessed you on this day of 02/21/1981 ( Floor’s Birthday) an Angel of Metal and she will be known as Floor Jansen.
Happy birthday beautiful Deadgrl Superstar. Love your eye makeup! Now you have heard a little Floor Jansen (Yahn-sen). There is so much more incredible music to hear from Floor and Nightwish. This show is so great. Not a competition. It brings together several singers from different genres and each week they honor one of the singers buy doing a song for them. I wish we had a show like this in the States. So much fun to watch the other singers react to the songs being sung for them. Floor has had both operatic training as well as musical theater training. On this show she does everything from Operatic arias to a cover of Shallow from Lady Gaga. See you for the next great reaction my friend. Peace. 👀👏🎭
Facts about floor
She's a classically trained singer and she's a vocal coach she went to a rock academy and studied musical theater and opera she can sing in 8 languages and has been doing this since she was 16 when she joined her first band After Forever they were together 12 years and then disbanded then she had ReVamp for a few years and while in that band she was singing for nightwish and she was singing for them a few months until they made her their permanent singer she's been with them since 2013
Happy Birthday, and I love the way you did your eyes. You must be a professional makeup artist! I bet all your girlfriends ask you to do theirs! Ha Ha! Two quick points: 1) on the show itself, some people notice it was raining during the song and some don't. The facility was a tent like structure and it started to rain when they were filming, and the roof leaked as they were singing. If you rewatch it you can see the water dripping in the pool in the background. Also, it is said (but I can't prove this) that the "thunder" sound you hear at the very first when the organ starts was REAL thunder, not a sound effect. Amazing then how Floor and Henk were able to keep it together and still sing! Could you do that? 2) I agree with many of the other commenters recommendations (I read them all), but 2 small notes: a) for Floor herself, Beste Zangers is best and "Shallow" is very popular, however b) based on your reaction to the more beautiful parts of "Phantom" and your other comments, I might suggest that the Nightwish performance of "The Poet and the Pendulum -- Official Video" at th-cam.com/video/iEzZRMthhXU/w-d-xo.html would be your best bet. It has many beautiful parts where Floor sings in such a high, beautiful, sweet tone that is very emotional, especially in the middle parts (called "The Pacific" in the song). And at 14 minutes long it has more there for you to dig into than some of the Beste Zangers episodes. The version I have recommended includes the lyrics at the bottom, which is important in this particular song.
Keep well, and I'll try and check out that second channel !
Floor and Henk strike again hehehe
So many people are left speechless after watching this performance, to me that is one of the most fun parts in watching the reacts to this song in particular :)
Loved your reaction :)
Happy early birthday. I love your vids. Sometimes I cry right along with you.
Wellwell. Finally we are here. Meet the the best singer in the world: the Dutch singer/songwriter and a vocal coach Floor Jansen. For me this is the Duet of the Century. Great acting chemistry between the singers and top notch singing, of course. As you said, Henk Poort has performed the Eric's role for hundreds of times. And Floor was fangirling him when young. And now they managed to do it together and the rest is history. There are some other Floor's performances on this BZ2019 show, and they are all excellent. And don't you ever forget, that Floor is a singer for a Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. Try next the song "Ever dream" from the Wacken 2013 concert. Greetings from Northern Finland! ⛄ And something for the Christmas. You've done some wonderful Voctave reactions, but not the best for the upcoming season: "Voctave feat. Mark Lowry: Mary did you know?" The best Cristmas song ever (IMHO). 🎅👍
Thanks for this, waiting for more.
Happy belated birthday!
if you want to hear more of Floors diversity and get to know her on a more personal level you should see her on Beste Zingers. It is a show out of the Netherlands where seven well known singers put their own spin on each others songs. Only one of the singers had heard of Nightwish and Floor Jensen so they were all curious to hear how this woman from a metal band would perform their songs. Lets just say the was a lot of shock and awe. You can find Floors performances here: th-cam.com/users/jenniezelfvideos or watch full episodes here: www.dailymotion.com/xpinkeu/videos
Wait till you hear her live with Nightwish.
Loved your review - great enthusiasm!
Your react was so genuine and sweet. Hope we´ll see more Nightwish stuff with you.
There is time enough before Xmas. Take care.
The program is made for Dutch TV. The idea behind the show is that they invite 7 vocalist from different genre's and each episode one of them is at the center of attention. The other vocalist will either perform a song from the artist or sing a song that has a special meaning to them. This clip was from the 8th (last) episode where they all sang duets. Even though Floor Jansen has toured the world several times she was relatively unknown in the Netherlands. That changed radically after this show aired. The woman is ridiculously versatile. She can literally sing any song in any style she likes. The male in this show was a classically trained opera singer who performed the phantom in original Dutch version of the show. Andrew Lloyd Webber considered him one of the best. Floor looked up to him as he was a kind of vocal hero to her since she was a child so she could not pass on the opportunity to perform this song with him. :-)
If you to want to look into her pick any song of the show, it really does not matter all them are brilliant. As recommendation i would pick her version of the Lady Gaga song called "Shallow" th-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/w-d-xo.html
Watch ever other performance from her in that show as well, mind blowing. This was actually the last performance of the 2019 season, each year their last show is a duet, and Henk only agreed to do this on the condition that the next time Nightwish came through the Netherlands he was able to do it again with them on stage. She's total fangirling seeing up there with him.
Take a deep dive in Nightwish with Floor. Enjoy the Floorgasms👍🏻
Love watching other people's reactions, sounds familiar.
Everyone of floors performances on this show are world class. You just hit the tip of the iceberg. I would recommend doving deeper and watching her either at the wacken concert with night wish or her solo performances on this show either way she's the best female vocalist on the planet in my opinion
Beste zangers is a celebration of music. 7 artists take turns to sing a song that is either from the other singer or means a lot to them. This song is from the last episode full of duets. Please check out more content of this show. It's great. Henk Poort was the Dutch Phantom,
They were singing in a tent in Ibiza and it was raining very very hard and the roof was leaking. If you watch again you can see rain falling down in front of the camera. LOL.
Others sing what they can, Floor sings what she damn well pleases.
It’s called a Floorgasm. We all experience it, even after many times listening.
This singers have each a day that they are in the spot and the last week they do a duet. They all can make their choice with ho they will do it.
Floor was choose Henk with the phantom. A other singer Tim Akkerman choose Floor to do Shallow. Henk choose Emma Heesters to do Vivo Per Lei with him.
If you will react to more of this show then I recommend you to use the videos of jenniezelf.
Here is a example Floor with Tim, singing Shallow.

th-cam.com/video/3Pf7Xd3IVtU/w-d-xo.html
"I love watching other people watching her!" - that's what the rest of us are here for as well, dear :)
RE Repo - there was a summer at our house where for whatever reason my gang decided they needed to watch Repo like 3 times a week, the entire summer. Especially during (middle/high-school) sleepovers. Haven't seen it since, and now I feel a Mighty Need - so thanks for that!
Beste Zangers is wonderful, their band is awesome too and in such a small intimate setting. Worth watching all of floors songs!
Ok, so now you have heard Floor sing. I see you have already reacted to Phantom and Ghost Love Score by Nightwsh with Tarja their Original singer, she is both beautiful and sounds great. I grew up listening to that version of the band and love them. That version of Phantom is brilliant with Marko screaming as the phantom. I do not compare the singers against each other as I love both versions of the band and the singers are both brilliant in their own rights. So now its time to check out Ghost Love Score again. Please watch the version from Wacken 2013 as its the best version (with Floor as vocalist) in many opinions. You would never tell that Floor had only been singing with the band for a few months when this was recorded. If you want to listen to more after that work your way through the whole concert it is so good. Im sure others will guide you through any more Floor / Nightwish tracks as there are quite a few and all are excellent.
Take Care and Stay Safe
Gotta love this reaction! So down to earth :)
Cant wait for your reaction: Nightwish - Ghost love score, Storytime, Greatest Show on Earth, Poet an the Pendulum by Floor Jansen ect. There is so much to enjoy.
I think one of the other guests (Samantha?) commented on that big of a performance in that small of a venue. That it was almost overwhelming (in a good way).
Happy belated Birthday! When you begin your Christmas/Holiday music, be sure to check out Floor singing "O Holy Night" in Finnish in gorgeous operatic metal style! "Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö - Floor Jansen (17.12. Espoo, Metro Areena): th-cam.com/video/HPDMC84vmdg/w-d-xo.html. Not to be missed! :)
I loved this... ❤️
Happy belated birthday.
The thunder right at the beginning isn't an effect, it's real thunder. There was a really bad storm outside while they recorded this. You can even see the rain coming in through the roof.
Check out Ghost Love Score Wacken 2013 it’s with Foor she was with the band for 10 months but was not really officially joined the band as a full time member until a few months later. Don’t know your genre of music exactly but If you like Ghost Love Score you will obviously love the 100 or so Nightwish. Happy Birthday and for your birthday present check out Floor Jansens cover of Let It Go from Disney’s Frozen & to expand your symphonic music genre, try Epica with feat Floor Jansen their Retrospective show , Sancta Terra. Nightwish fans love Epica and visa versa! Again Happy Birthday from an old metal/rock head!🎉🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Helping the algorithm :-) Great reaction!
Floor rules! But you only saw 12% of what she can do!
I love your reactions and the honest emotions that you share with us through your channel. I don't normally comment on any channel but when I saw that you are finally reacting to Floor I thought of putting forth a request. Please listen to her version of Ghost Love Score from the 2013 Wacken concert. You need not do a reaction video but I believe that you would really enjoy it. Thank you for this and your other channel.
If you haven’t been listening to Nightwish with Floor Jansen then you’re in for a treat. I suggest the Wacken 2013 concert official live performance of Storytime as a good place to start. 😄🤘 Happy 27th Birthday! 🎊 (I’m 50 years older than you 🙀)
I love your reaction, and this time i got even some tears.. that happens not often. I'm a new subscriber, going to follow you more
Just found ya. Nightwish Army represent!
Sarah Brightman going to the house is one of my favorite moments of that movie. :) Still, listen to the others. You will not regret it. Ghost love score, Wacken version. We will watch :)
Your smile though... Omg... 😍
musical in rock version Sung by Floor and the Phantom (Henk Poort) Her Idol btw
Happy birthday a little late. I'm just glad they finally unblocked the video. I loved her but I didn't care for him. I would love to see her duet with David Draiman of Disturbed, that would be epic. Speaking of Christmas, Vocal Point just released a song last week "Believe (Polar Express medley)" with Rise Up Children's Choir. Peter Hollens also did "Believe" with Vocal Point and One Voice Children's Choir's, which was good, but this one's ever better. A great Nightwish song, if you have about 20 minutes, is "The Greatest Show on Earth". Any live concert version. One Voice Children's Choir's along with BYU (Brigham Young University) and BYU Men's Choir were the "friends" in "Carol of the bells" with Peter Hollens and friends video you watched last Christmas.
What u didn't realize at the time was Floor was singing with someone she idolized when she was growing up. So guess ud say her dream to sing with him came true.
"Great reaction ... thanks!!"🎶🤘
Honestly the way Marko sings the phantom should be a thing. The baritone singer with no real rasp do not give the tortured menace to the phantom that Marko brings. Floor is great. I like Tarja's performance overall in the official nightwish video.
i love your hair, so cute !!
Love you and your reactions !! My great-grand daughter shares your birthday and is a year younger than you. I've enjoyed your reactions for a couple years now. I might just subscribe. Love you !!
Phantom is s musical not an opera and my all time favorite you are the same age as my granddaughter and i would love to get her to appreciate these pieces of music❤
So by by now it’s obvious that you have to check Floor in Nightwish. Revisit Ghost Love Score..wacken open air 2013. And from there it will be a feast of hearing her vocal abilities combined with her excellent way of making you feeling your feelings...:)
The other songs in the beste zangers will show her ability to sing basically anything she wants. The show is no competition but a celebration of music. Each week there’s one artist in the center of attention and the othe artists will sing a song from that artist of a song that’s important to them. Floor at that point was not wellingen in The Netherlands her homecountry. Metal gets no airplay on radio or television. After the series she hit it big. In the first episodes it’s fun to see the other artists being surprised by her abilities because only Tim Akkerman knew her. She showed that being a metalhead you can be a great and fantastic artist/singer.
And there isn’t a single number from Nightwish shown live that she doesn’t Shiite like the Valkyrie Metal Godess she is....have fun!
Read shin instead of Shiite....hahaha ..fuck autocorrect
Beautiful and emotional reaction. It's a joy to watch you enjoy it. And if you are going to do more reactions from Floor from this show 'Beste Zangers (translated as Best Singers or Dear Singers) take the versions from Denise Hoffs (from Dailymotion in HD) or the channel from Jenniezelf , they have intros and outros to the performance with English subs. You get to know why a specific song is chosen and you get to know Floor Jansen a little bit more. And be ready to be surprised and amazed.
I subscribe in advance.
Floor has no equal, she can sing whatever she wants to sing, all the songs from Nightwish wich there are a lot that wern't whritten for het she owns every song she crushed the original songs piece by piece a great starter for your Nightwish experience because it will be a journey for you that you're gonna love but ill recomend you gohst love score at wacken 2013 official live version and you will blow your mind have fun and thnx for your reaction....goosebumps body chills emotions are called FLOORGASMS and you will get a lot of them exploring Floor in Nightwish
best duet ever
The Tarja version with Marko is unparalleled, but Floor is the most charismatic and talented woman on the face of the Earth. She's a Valkyrie, she's the Queen of Metal.
