I belive that is it Joost van de Broek on the piano , longtime friend of Floor and former member of their band After forever. Greetings from NWaSE Sweden

Floor Jansen & The Red Limo String Quartet - Energize Me . Acoustic , No mic , no audio amplification , no audio tricks simply 100% PURE Floor-Power . this is from before the Nightwish period. this is a song from Floor's old band After Forever. link : th-cam.com/video/uzW1jDAt69Q/w-d-xo.html .
Her version of Oblivion from the film is excellent as is her singing Euphoria an Eurovision Song Contest winner. And her solo version of Shallow from Lady Gaga is superb on Dutch TV show Beste Zangers. th-cam.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/w-d-xo.html
She sang some of the songs from Beste Zangers and the ones from home during the covid isolation period during her solo concert in Amsterdam, late 2021. Definitely worth watching and hearing, and even Henk Poort comes on stage. My favourite is Face Your Demons, a song from her After Forever period.
And she really nailed it! This is a home made music video, so she were not sitting in the rocking chair when they recorded the audio. The grand piano is provided by her long time friend and collaborator SIR Joost van den Broek (After forever, Ayreon). 😎👍
Something that you should know about FLOOR JANSEN. She started singing in a symphonic metal band at just 16 years old. After Forever (1995-2009). Then she created a new Progressive Metal band, ReVamp (2009-2016). In 2018 she released a personal Hard Rock project (Northward). In 2012, she was invited by Nightwish to finish their world tour, after the band's second female singer (Annete Olzon) left. In 2013 she became Nightwish's full time lead Vocalist. She is a singing teacher. She sings in Dutch, German, English, Spanish, Finnish, Swedish, Italian and Latin. She sings Heavy Metal, Trash Metal, Pop, Rock, Symphonic Metal, Arya and Opera. She even sang rap. THE BEST SINGER TODAY IN THE WHOLE WORLD.
I can tell you that unlike many, I like Floors low register best. The very opening notes of Floors voice in this give me instant shivers down the spine. The same happens with Nightwish songs in her low register. I would be very happy with an entire song in that range.
I'm right there with you...her lower register is so full and rich...as in her alto part in her duet with Simone/Epica in Stabat Mater Dolorosa...yummy!
Next up: Floor singing “Vilja Lied” from the Merry Widow operetta, which was the first song she did on the Beste Zangers 2019 series. She was first up and almost nobody knew who she was. They certainly weren’t expecting THAT from the “screaming metal singer” and their reactions were priceless. Longer intro/outro version with English subtitles (turn on the cc): th-cam.com/video/JN80AfHiUTY/w-d-xo.html
Great reaction! If you like to hear a full-on belting Floor, you should definitely react to After Forever's (= Floor's 1st band) rendition of "Alone". IMO one of the best vocal performances by Floor (in my personal top 3), and better than this one IMO, which is a matter of taste of course. Floor's passion is blazing gigantically(!) in After Forever's rendition. And in 2007 Ann Wilson did a radio interview (I don't know for what radio station) and she mentioned a metal band from The Netherlands that covered Alone. She also said that Floor's vocals blew her away & this cover introduced her to Floor, who she thought covered Alone beautifully. I believe there's only a studio-version available on youtube (sound only + slideshow of Floor&Band), and it's gooood: th-cam.com/video/oIzuTlabP68/w-d-xo.html
I wil say this again: Alone by Hart is also a cover....and not the original, at first they even did not want to do it. But the record label pushed them to do it.
Hi Juliet. Nice attention to detail in your comments. I’m a member of the so-called NW army and have heard Nightwish 3 times here in Maryland since 2015. Floor is one of the best singers I’ve ever heard and I’m a senior citizen and have heard so many of the greats in multiple genres. Floor is an Ann Wilson fan and has done this song numerous times over the years. (and I’ve heard Heart several times also, they were awesome). New sub 😊
What a benefit to have Joost van den Broek on the piano. He boosts up the energy and then the scream, often the hardest part for a singer, flows out so effortless.
Thank you for this reaction, really loved it. And also learned a view things, thank you for that. I cannot wait until December 8th, then I will see Floor live doing her Paragon solo tour.
A Viking Goddess, Floor is just off the hook. You can't critique defined perfection. But what you can do if you have the education is, explain what she is doing and why.
Unsure if it was intentional (maybe it was) but she says "getcha" instead of "get ya/get you". Not a criticism - I have zero room to criticize here. When I was a child, my mother was a professional singer who constantly went to a singing coach to catch bad habits - mainly to keep her singing/pronouncing clearly. Floor speaks/sings multiple languages, and this could explain the difference (phonemes in different languages are different - UK English has 39, while the US has 45). Depending on where she learned her English, this may be correct.
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach apparently it’s an AKG C12 VR Reference Tube Condenser Microphone, which means nothing to me. Probably the only one which can handle Floor at close range 😂

It actually is SIR Joost van den Broek.
@@Klojum And his playing is one of the under-appreciated gems in this performance.
There are very few piano/keyboard players like Joost van den Broek.
Region been playing for her no one else is in that room Norwegian been playing for her
You should interview her if you get a chance .. she is a self confessed vocal nerd so you guys would have a great discussion
Ooooh now you’ve got me dreaming! I would looooove that!!! 👍
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach Then give it a try! 👍👍🤞🤞
I so often have the feeling that Floor doesn't sing the song, but tells a sung story, and that makes her unique in my eyes.
“Tells a sung story” - love that! 👍

Ought tolook at the Phantom of the Opera from Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam. I think you'd have fun with it.
As a huge fan of the original composition by Heart, I feel that Floor did very well by it. And that very top note always explodes with emotion.
WOW... what an enthusiastic reaction to the stage monster Floor - I love it! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥🤘🤘👏
Thank you, and yes, she is a vocal monster! 😊💃🏻🎶
I think Floor found it necessary to keep it a little softer due to the intimate and slightly slower style with piano only.
so beautiful
😘👍 Floor did Alone already with her first band After Forever
I love all of these Covid performances that Floor did. To produce videos like this in her home studio was pretty remarkable.
Great reaction! If you like to hear a full-on belting Floor, you should definitely react to After Forever's (= Floor's 1st band) rendition of "Alone".

Yes, it was was written by and for i-Ten. Never received any success though, until it was covered by Heart.
@@vogel2280 that stil does not make it a composition of Heart, just a cover by Heart or not?
@@masterrubyan2976 Hence the word 'yes' at the start of my sentence. Also the lack of the word 'but' is an indication I was agreeing with you.
Hi Juliet. Nice attention to detail in your comments. I’m a member of the so-called NW army and have heard Nightwish 3 times here in Maryland since 2015.

Yes! Was just gonna give a shout out to Joost. His work on the keys is exquisite.

A Viking Goddess, Floor is just off the hook. You can't critique defined perfection. But what you can do if you have the education is, explain what she is doing and why.
Crazy on you IS my favorite Heart song, but what I really want to hear is Floor belting out Barracuda 😁
Unsure if it was intentional (maybe it was) but she says "getcha" instead of "get ya/get you". Not a criticism - I have zero room to criticize here.

Depending on where she learned her English, this may be correct.
Do you think she really sung on that rocking chair? What if they recorded it standing, and only after that made a somewhat artistic video?
Hi! Long time you don’t react Gabriel Henrique. My suggestion is his cover of Set fire to the rain Adele. 😊
Floor does not disappoint.
She is the Queen if song.🎉. Did many covers at home during covid.
Hug from Sweden
And no Tommy Johansson version of 'alone'...🇸🇪
can you does us a favor and watch Angra - Carry on (official). would be so cool.
I will, thanks! 👍
Floors friend Joost van den Broek on the Grand piano is fantastic
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘 well done
Ann Wilson heard it and liked it.
look op when love dais one of her one songs
Ok, thanks! 👍
Hi Right now Floor is 5n half months or 6 months pregnant. She just finished doing a tour to promote her new album.
Thanks
The hard consonant of the 'K' with both "clocK & darK" made for a similar sound.
Love the song Adagio Floor covers. Great reaction Heart and Vixen was the girl groups i loved in the eighties.
🤩👌💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
Great reaction .. she is the best ! .. greets from the Netherlands
Floor's diction is so clear no matter what she is singing!
👍👍🇳🇱🤘🤘💕
The end - I love that too. Great artists can do this :)
wish she would sing those too
shees, singing for 110k !live! and you? youra a little youtube #0??
She is certainly no Ann Wilson , that's for sure.
who are you , to even touch Floor?
Своими рассуждениями, испортили всю песню
"Queen" of the Barn....
Recorded with a $6000 mic but sadly recorded and mixed on a iMac=losing a lot of bitrate. 😪
Do you know which mic that is? I noticed it but couldn’t see the brand/model.
