Yep, Floor has a 3 year old princess, 2 giant horses, cat with newborn kittens - and I am pretty sure she has got a new dog also. Floor, Hannes and Freja (daughter) are living on a farm, directly to the woods and close to a lake, in a Swedish forest. So full time mom, farmer, wife - and besides of that, she turns on the sun every morning 😉
Her daughter was named after a Norse Goddess, Floor 's name derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring Flora... beautiful.... Why is she a Goddess.. because she has a Powerful voice, endurance, breath control, high notes, low notes, belting, sing like an Angel, a Siren, Rockstar and a Beast from Hell. Last but not least, an Awesome stage presence. All pop divas are only good enough to shine her boots...lol
Floor and her husband Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of Sabaton, have a 3yo girl named Freja. A fitting name as Norse mythology describes Freja as the Goddess of love and beauty. 😄🤘
Funny that you ask about how they are doing this with one guitarist. Interestingly, Nightwish has 3 guitarists: Emppu, Marco, and Troy Doneckley, who is a multi-instrumentalist. He's the one you'll see playing low whistle, tin whistle, uilleann pipes, e-bow, and guitar. Additionally, Floor, Marco, and Troy all sing, and sing lead on songs, so this band has talent in spades.
Floor is a newer Mom, she is married to the drummer of the band Sabaton. She started doing death growls in her old band Revamp, check out the song Wild Card if you want to hear more of her growling.
Floor has a southern Dutch accent. Floor has a 3 years old daughter named Freja, with her husband Hannes Van Dahl who is the drummer of the Swedish power metal band, Sabaton. We Nightwish fans use the term "Floorgasm" in place of the scientific term "Frisson". Frisson is of short duration, lasting only a few seconds. Typical stimuli include loud passages of music and passages-such as appoggiaturas and sudden modulation-that violate some level of musical expectation. During a frisson, a sensation of chills or tingling is felt on the skin of the lower back, shoulders, neck, and/or arms. The sensation of chills is sometimes experienced as a series of 'waves' moving up the back in rapid succession and commonly described as "shivers up the spine". Hair follicles may also undergo piloerection (Goosebumps AKA Floorgasm). Loved your reaction as usual my friends. See you soon. Peace.
“That guy,” Marko, has some Nightwish songs where he takes the lead: “The Islander” live at Tampere 2015. “While Your Lips Are Still Red” live at Wembley 2015. “Master Passion Greed” studio version, the band won’t play this live. “Endlessness” from their newest album, released this year-no live performance yet, pandemic sucks. Also, check out their cover of the Pink Floyd song “High Hopes” on their “End of an Era” concert. Marko also takes the lead in this one. :)
Floor was at a really low point in her life when Tuomas offered her the lead vocalist spot in Nightwish, in 2012. They've been friends for so many years and met when Tarja was still singing in Nightwish.
Hey guys, very nice react. Nice to see your faces realising Floor's doing the growls. And yes, a vocalist and human being (she is very humble and down to earth), to fall in love with. And she is a metal mom. Funny lady also, LMAO during her solo show and there she blew me away with her power and versatility. Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean is also very good. Vocals partially used as an instrument.
Can you check out Everdream from Wacken 2013. I think you will enjoy that one as well. The whole Wacken concert is out of this world. I've been following Nightwish and Floor since 1997 and it never gets old, only gets better. And to answer your question, yes Floor is a metal mom and does have a busy home life when she's not touring. I've been fortunate to see them live a few times when they tour the US and the live shows are simply incredible! Thanks for the reactions!!
There is a video from a Finnish heavy metal christmas tour (yes, it's a thing) called Raskasta Joulua (Heavy Christmas) in which Floor sings Ave Maria and she's I believe 7 months pregnant and she sings in Finnish. I think scientist are still searching the limits of her talent with no luck so far.
Yes, she has a TH-cam channel called "Storytime", I think they are at Storytime #4 now.. You can check out her, around the ranch and her horses, and "some of her friends, and music associates that come by to join in the conversations", she talks about the other musical projects she has going on.. She explains the migration process she went thru, joining Nightwish, moving from her home in the Netherlands to Finland, then meeting her husband and then uproot again to move to Sweden where he's from, learning the languages. I've heard her sing songs or speak in German, Spanish, Finish, French and of course Dutch and English....
guys, Wembley Arena in London has 13K sitting capacity...with the crowd standing and in the golden circle in front...that's at least 20k rocking and having...Floorgasms all over Floor))))
Yes she is a Mom, she lives in Sweden, no only is a metal mom, is a metal wife, she is married to Sabaton's drummer, keep going guys your path in Nightwish, nice done boys!
It's easy to think that there's more than one guitar, i think it's partially because of Marko's bass tuning. But there's something for you: song "Weak Fantasy" has three guitars (that's not counting bass) at the same time, it's also one of the wildest tracks of theirs. Wanna see how it works? Check it live @ Tampere 2015
Troy, the multi instrumentalist is from the UK. Marko, Emppu, and Tuomas remain the only original members.... well Marko actually took over bass duties from Sami in 2001, but remains with them. Drummer Kai Hahto is also Finnish but took over Drumming duties in 2015 after Jukka announced he could no longer hold it together because of health problems due to insomnia. Any reactions and feelings/emotions that include goosebumps, chills, and tears whether from joy or sadness from hearing Floor's voice, is called a "Floorgasm". It wasn't meant to offend you, it's actually a "thing" in the Nightwish community and especially newcomers. Yes, Floor is indeed a metal mom to a 3 1/2 yr old (Freja Van Dahl) and the daddy and husband (fun fact) is the drummer from Sabaton. Thank you for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘
Floor is in fact a mom, she's married to Hans van Dahl, the drummer of Sabayon, and they have a beautiful little daughter together. Tuomas wrote a verse specifically for her being a mom in the song How's the Heart, if you're interested. It's nowhere near as heavy as this one, but as you might imagine given the content it's an emotional hard hitter!
bit by bit you discover the versatility of the band and Floor's voice! Still a lot more out there 🤘😎😉. Nightwish is considered a symfonic metal band, but they bring so much more, they play whatever they like... soft ballads to death metal and everything in between.
Yeah, Floor's an extremely versatile vocalist! I would not be surprised if I'd hear her yodel and employ throat singing techniques as well 😁 Thanks for the reaction!
Floor isn't from Finland, she's from the Netherlands, different accent than the Finnish accent. And yes, Floor is a mom, her husband is Sabaton's drummer.
Only one guitar player but he is Emppu Vuorinen THE Electric Hobbit! He plays rthym and lead. Marko can and does play guitar at times and so too does Troy Donockley - so MUCH TALENT in this band!
Guys go listen to Floor's previous 2 bands, After Forever and Revamp. She does the rasp and growl all the time. She is literally the greatest female vocalist alive and capable of performing today.
Great reaction, thank you. LVT...Floor is Dutch, Troy is a Brit, the others are Fins. One the Dutch TV show " Beste Zangers 2019 " She sings in English, German,Dutch and Spanish ( from memory ). Same show you watched Phantom video. Yes she is a mom, 4 year old daughter. She and her husband ( drummer in Sabaton ) and daughter live on a farm in Sweden. Dirty D...No hair spinning....Dutch girls windmill.
Tuomas is fabulous at writing material that suits his vocalist(s), but he really lucked out getting Floor to join the band because she can do the operatic Tarja stuff and the more pop Anette stuff, too. You've already done Ghost River and Romanticide (which I am now off to partake of), so another crunchier song you'll like is Weak Fantasy from Tampere.
Correction - Nightwish DOES have two guitarists (or three, if we count Marko who plays a double neck bass/guitar - check out "The Islander" at Tampere to see that and behold the awesomeness). Troy Donockley is a multi-instrumentalist, and by "multi" I mean literally anything, and does play the guitar in some of the songs (see "While Your Lips Are Still Red" from the same show). He isn't featured in this song though.
I guess you need to see The Islander live at Tampere and While Your Lips Are Still Red live at Wembley. Marko (the bassist) is the only person that can say that he has Floor Jansen has his backup singer.
Thank you for the reaction :-) Superb concert, features songs from the 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful (2015)' album, Nightwish's first studio album with Floor. New songs written specifically with Floor in mind. 'Yours Is An Empty Hope' is the 4th track on the 'Endless Forms Most Beautiful' studio album. This concert was another milestone for Nightwish, they were the first Finnish band to headline Wembley Arena. In a Wembley Arena annual poll for the best live performance of 2015, they came 2nd to Queen. Floor is doing all the growling using false vocal cords technique, IIRC a technique she learned / mastered during the 'ReVamp'(band) days.
FLOOR IS DUTCH!!!!!!!! pfff guys She had her own band After for Ever when she was a teen (pretty famous from 1998 to 2007), than started Revamp (great songs too) Till Nightwish was on tour in the USA and their singer was sick again. They called her if she could sing with them in 48 hours. She studied the songs on the plane...it was a hit and she never left. There is a docu onyou tube about this, learn the songs in 48 hours) Wacken is when she was just hired in the band. She is married with the drummer of Sabaton and they live together with there 3 year old daughter Frey in a remote part of sweden in the woods. They have a studio on house, she is a great amazone and has two horses, Floor is a HSP (higly sensitive personality) and after touring she needs the peace and quietness of the woods. Fun fact, her sister is also a singer. She is indeed that tall. Holland is the country with the tallest persons in the world officially. Must be those crazy vikings who were kings here for decades. :D (Holland is very close to denmark and our language is more like Danish than German, what everybody thinks)
Hey, you should definitely check out Floor Jansen in her previous band Revamp song disdain and wild card before she joined nightwish, totally different Floor, awesome 😎
Do I remember it wrong or did Tuomas say "No growling in Nightwish" many many years ago (during the Tarja & Anette era)? Well, that obviously changed when Floor joined the band. Cheers/ B.
Hi from the uk 🇬🇧 something you might like to check out floor jansens friends band (simone simons) called Epica it's another symphonic metal band Epica consign to oblivion live at the zenith Paris Epica unleashed live retrospect show Epica sancta terra with floor jansen retrospect show (Floor's singing as a guest)
Probably also time to check out the band ReVamp, it's Floor's former band before she joined Nightwish. It's a bit more straightforward metal and a bit grittier also than what she does in Nightwish. Check out Disdain (live at graspop) or Wildcard for sure.
"Master, Passion Greed" is another heavy duty song that features Marco's singing,, There is no live concert video performance of this song on TH-cam.. But, there is a Special Nightwish Video of this song put together by Comunidade using high quality concert clips. It's excellent, but they don't perform this song anymore because it's an angry snap back at the person who was the main cause of the split of Nightwish and their first lead singer Tarja. They pretty muchly knew that her then Manager/Husband was the main cause of Tarja's attitude change towards money and a new solo career.. This song is directed towards him... and in order to put that episode behind them they agreed to not perform the song anymore.. With lyrics like "the stench of your lies draws flies" It's a very harsh criticism of him.. ..
Very, very nice your reaction on my recommendation of this song. I enjoy it a lot guys, and yes, Floor is also mother. And her husband is member of Sabaton, also a methal band. Her daughter has already been on tour. Maybe you enjoy, with Floor for sure : These next songs, they are some of there range in making there songs and the difference off it. From soft, to catchy, rocking, balads and of course long masterpieces. 1 Gosth river 2 I wish I had an angel 3 Shoemaker 4 Sleeping sun 5 the poet and the pendulum But there are many other....... Greeting from the Netherlands, Groet'n uut Nederland, You are great! Geert de Lange and not Gjeert die Langsjee😉😁😎
A lot of people? Wembley Arena certainly isn't the biggest venue, but "sold out" would be 12,500. Yeh, Floor growls. . . . . . . . :-) Floor and Marko duet/harmonise perfectly. Keep at it, you're doing well.
She wasn't yet a mom when this was recorded, her daughter was born 15 months later, in March 2017. She rode with the band on the tour bus from when she was 11 months old, hanging with the guys backstage and regaling everyone. :)
Floor is Dutch. and in the netherlands people speaks english very well.and she can sing in dutch,finnish,spanish,english and german. watch the show "beste zangers". (best singers) awesome show with her vocal abilities..greetz from the netherlands..Awesome reactions .love you guys.c.u.
The same song live in Mexico City is awesome too - including the growls by Floor! Floor “Metal Mum” has also now released a solo video of Frozen’s “ Let it go” for her 3 yo daughter who was always singing it - it’s metal style! Check out the “Remastered Let it go” version.
Tuomas: Hey Floor, I wrote a song where you can put your opera vocals on display! Floor: No. I’ll growl it. 😂🤣 Btw. Floor is not Finnish, Floor is Dutch. The band is originally Finnish, but Troy is English, so that makes two of the band members are not from Finland.
Another wonderdul review!.....as to the Irish/Celtic sounding accent, you are not the only one who has though as much. Floor is actually from the Netherlands but at times she does sound like she has an Irish/Celtic accent.....in fact a few Nightwish songs sound like they may have a bit of Celtic folk song in them (I Want My Tears Back, Harvest. etc.).
Emmpu The guitarist is on fire 😍😎👍 Floor is the third female Vocalist of Nightwish,. her first band was "After Forever" Her second band wich she founded was "Revamp" 👀 (Disdain live at Graspop)
Yep, Floor has a 3 year old princess, 2 giant horses, cat with newborn kittens - and I am pretty sure she has got a new dog also. Floor, Hannes and Freja (daughter) are living on a farm, directly to the woods and close to a lake, in a Swedish forest.
So full time mom, farmer, wife - and besides of that, she turns on the sun every morning 😉
Floor has 2 Clydesdale's, those giant horses that pulls beer wagons sometimes (does Budweiser still have a couple of teams?)
Cheers / B.
"...she turns on the sun every morning"
Somehow I'll believe that...she does everything else.
@Richard Frye - Ok.
2 Giant Horses...nope those are Pegasus pretending to be regular horses
@Richard Frye - Hiya. I know one's a Haflinger, do you know what the other one is? All the best.
Floor is Dutch and powers the Netherlands with her windmills. 🤘🏼💥🤘🏼
Wang Tang no need for durable energy resources here...we have Floor 🇳🇱🇳🇱🤟🏼🤟🏼
I'm LITERALLY CRYING from laughing so hard! 😂😂😂😂
But it's so accurate though!
Actually, Tuomas and Floor could power Findland and the Netherlands together because he’s pretty good at it too lol
ay...another proud Dutchie here
Everybody: - How many different ways can you sing?
Floor: - Yes!
Still waiting for her rapping.....
Anything else: check !
@@matthiaskellner9331 and Mongolian throath sing!
@@MustaLaatta Thats too easy for her XD but I would be curious, for fun :)))
@@matthiaskellner9331🤔 yodeling?⛰️🏔⛰️
That would be very interesting!
Cue Tuomas crying tears of joy in the background
At 4:43 "I'm slowly falling in love with her!"
🤣
Welcome to the club, but I'm afraid you have to get in line like the rest of us!
Her daughter was named after a Norse Goddess, Floor 's name derived from the Roman Goddess of Spring Flora... beautiful.... Why is she a Goddess.. because she has a Powerful voice, endurance, breath control, high notes, low notes, belting, sing like an Angel, a Siren, Rockstar and a Beast from Hell. Last but not least, an Awesome stage presence.
All pop divas are only good enough to shine her boots...lol
I love to see folk immediately realize that it's floor doing the growls hahaha great reaction
LOL Floor is from the Netherlands, she is Dutch. No worries tho :)
Dutch, working in a Finnish band and living in Sweden:)
@@Zandman26 and married to a Swede😉
Floor and her husband Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of Sabaton, have a 3yo girl named Freja. A fitting name as Norse mythology describes Freja as the Goddess of love and beauty. 😄🤘
She is not only the drummer's wife. She also sang in choirs in several songs by Sabaton
Not only she is a mom, but she was pregnant in the middle of EFMB Tour, and still singing this powerful song on the stage that time.
Funny that you ask about how they are doing this with one guitarist. Interestingly, Nightwish has 3 guitarists: Emppu, Marco, and Troy Doneckley, who is a multi-instrumentalist.

Troy is from the UK,
Floortje is from the Netherlands,the others (Tuomas, Kay,Emppu ,are from Finland.
Correct she is a rocking growling mother 🔥⚡🌋
she is the most versatile female vocalist i have ever heard she has no equal great reaction btw thnx
Floor is a newer Mom, she is married to the drummer of the band Sabaton. She started doing death growls in her old band Revamp, check out the song Wild Card if you want to hear more of her growling.
She is a mom. 3 yr old. Her husband is Hannes the drummer from Sabaton.
Yes floor growled in her first two bands revamp and after forever which is awesome
Floor sings in eight languages, she however is Dutch. The band is from Finland.
Floor has a southern Dutch accent. Floor has a 3 years old daughter named Freja, with her husband Hannes Van Dahl who is the drummer of the Swedish power metal band, Sabaton. We Nightwish fans use the term "Floorgasm" in place of the scientific term "Frisson".
Frisson is of short duration, lasting only a few seconds. Typical stimuli include loud passages of music and passages-such as appoggiaturas and sudden modulation-that violate some level of musical expectation. During a frisson, a sensation of chills or tingling is felt on the skin of the lower back, shoulders, neck, and/or arms. The sensation of chills is sometimes experienced as a series of 'waves' moving up the back in rapid succession and commonly described as "shivers up the spine". Hair follicles may also undergo piloerection (Goosebumps AKA Floorgasm).
Loved your reaction as usual my friends. See you soon. Peace.
“That guy,” Marko, has some Nightwish songs where he takes the lead:

Also, check out their cover of the Pink Floyd song “High Hopes” on their “End of an Era” concert. Marko also takes the lead in this one. :)
yup, Tuomas considers himself to have 3 lead singers and deliberately worked that into the vocals for the new album.
High Hopes, please. That one shows Marko could easily front a band. (He does, of course, already. Tarot.)
@@thisworldofwater8017 I think Marco fronts multiple bands.
Affirm, floor is a mom. Her husband is the drummer for Sabaton.
Nightwish is from Finland but Floor is from the Netherlands and Troy (who plays a variety of unusual instruments) is English.
Floor’s indeed a mom.
Floor was at a really low point in her life when Tuomas offered her the lead vocalist spot in Nightwish, in 2012. They've been friends for so many years and met when Tarja was still singing in Nightwish.
If you're interested in hearing Markos range and hear him leading a song check out the Islander at Tampere
Hey guys, very nice react.
Nice to see your faces realising Floor's doing the growls.
And yes, a vocalist and human being (she is very humble and down to earth), to fall in love with.
And she is a metal mom.
Funny lady also, LMAO during her solo show and there she blew me away with her power and versatility.
Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean is also very good. Vocals partially used as an instrument.
Simone Simons (Epica) was three months pregnant when the had their 10 year anniversary show. 2½ hours rocking out.
After working a hard touring schedule, she goes back to her family and farm to wield a 30lbs hammer. No joke.

Floor Jansen is so powerful and has a lot of talent... And She is so versatile!!
It's easy to think that there's more than one guitar, i think it's partially because of Marko's bass tuning.

"I'm starting to fall in love with her". Welcome to the Path of No Return ;).

Nightwish "Shudder Before The Beautiful" live from Wembley.

Do I remember it wrong or did Tuomas say "No growling in Nightwish" many many years ago (during the Tarja & Anette era)? Well, that obviously changed when Floor joined the band. Cheers/ B.
Definitely check out their cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes. That's one of my absolute favorite Marko songs.
Hi from the uk 🇬🇧 something you might like to check out floor jansens friends band (simone simons) called Epica it's another symphonic metal band
Epica consign to oblivion live at the zenith Paris
Epica unleashed live retrospect show
Epica sancta terra with floor jansen retrospect show (Floor's singing as a guest)
For sure! Thank you!
@@MettalMaffiaOfficial as was said in your 1st NW reaction Floor is Dutch,Troy is English,the rest of the band is Finnish.
@@MettalMaffiaOfficial Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith. It's an experience.
Probably also time to check out the band ReVamp, it's Floor's former band before she joined Nightwish.
It's a bit more straightforward metal and a bit grittier also than what she does in Nightwish. Check out Disdain (live at graspop) or Wildcard for sure.
When they find out it's the Floor that does the growling.🤔😮🤯
yes she is
"Master, Passion Greed" is another heavy duty song that features Marco's singing,, There is no live concert video performance of this song on TH-cam.. But, there is a Special Nightwish Video of this song put together by Comunidade using high quality concert clips. It's excellent, but they don't perform this song anymore because it's an angry snap back at the person who was the main cause of the split of Nightwish and their first lead singer Tarja. They pretty muchly knew that her then Manager/Husband was the main cause of Tarja's attitude change towards money and a new solo career.. This song is directed towards him... and in order to put that episode behind them they agreed to not perform the song anymore.. With lyrics like "the stench of your lies draws flies" It's a very harsh criticism of him.. ..
Dutch, living in sweden singing in a finish band :)
European. Or if you prefer, from Goethe: weltburger (world citizen).
Very, very nice your reaction on my recommendation of this song.
I enjoy it a lot guys, and yes, Floor is also mother. And her husband is member of Sabaton, also a methal band. Her daughter has already been on tour.
Maybe you enjoy, with Floor for sure :
These next songs, they are some of there range in making there songs and the difference off it.
From soft, to catchy, rocking, balads
and of course long masterpieces.

Greeting from the Netherlands,
Groet'n uut Nederland,
You are great!
Geert de Lange and not
Gjeert die Langsjee😉😁😎
A lot of people? Wembley Arena certainly isn't the biggest venue, but "sold out" would be 12,500.
Yeh, Floor growls. . . . . . . . :-) Floor and Marko duet/harmonise perfectly.
Keep at it, you're doing well.
She wasn't yet a mom when this was recorded, her daughter was born 15 months later, in March 2017. She rode with the band on the tour bus from when she was 11 months old, hanging with the guys backstage and regaling everyone. :)
🤘🤘❤🤘🤘😁✌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of my favs!!!!! New sub but saved a lot of yours already and will be catching up soon!!! Hello from Northern California!! 😉
Thank you! How the weather, ours is turning in ohio.
Floor is Dutch. and in the netherlands people speaks english very well.and she can sing in dutch,finnish,spanish,english and german. watch the show "beste zangers". (best singers) awesome show with her vocal abilities..greetz from the netherlands..Awesome reactions .love you guys.c.u.
And Swedish.... she actually speak very good Swedish. But ofc she lives there and are married to one so.... ;)
Also Latin.
@@ChrisPage68 That's the "Spanish".
Insane!
@@MisterJ56 She also sings Spanish and Italian. Latin is separate.
The same song live in Mexico City is awesome too - including the growls by Floor!
Floor “Metal Mum” has also now released a solo video of Frozen’s “ Let it go” for her 3 yo daughter who was always singing it - it’s metal style!
Check out the “Remastered Let it go” version.
Tuomas: Hey Floor, I wrote a song where you can put your opera vocals on display! Floor: No. I’ll growl it. 😂🤣 Btw. Floor is not Finnish, Floor is Dutch. The band is originally Finnish, but Troy is English, so that makes two of the band members are not from Finland.
All like the Flarco moment 😁😎🤘
Another wonderdul review!.....as to the Irish/Celtic sounding accent, you are not the only one who has though as much. Floor is actually from the Netherlands but at times she does sound like she has an Irish/Celtic accent.....in fact a few Nightwish songs sound like they may have a bit of Celtic folk song in them (I Want My Tears Back, Harvest. etc.).
Everybody is in love to Floor!
wacken 2013 is insane , best concert ever
People are saying The Islander Tampere, I'd say Rock in Rio with Marko and Tony Kakko lead singer/Maestro of Sonata Arctica (my fav band)
Floor is a rocking mother 🤘🏼
She is dutch not Finish....She is from the Netherlands...
There is a lovely home video Marko singing a lullaby for a baby.
Emmpu The guitarist is on fire 😍😎👍 Floor is the third female Vocalist of Nightwish,. her first band was "After Forever" Her second band wich she founded was "Revamp" 👀 (Disdain live at Graspop)
black metal swag? man, you're right... ;-)
