Pregnant, singing in a foreign language,( a very difficult language ), singing perfect...yep, that is Floor. HAIL the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Dancing to I Want My Tears Back every single time they played was a cardio routine on its own, as it is having a young child at home and her beloved pets. Active working moms don't necessarily need a gym
Thinking she is about 6-7 months. I am sure this is Dec., her daughter was born early March, 2017. What can you say, she does everything great love her Ve Maria. She did it as Christmas gift to her fans during the pandemic. It was awesome.
‘Raskasta joulua’ has a double meaning in Finnish. It’s not only ‘heavy Christmas’ but also ‘pregnant Christmas’. Quite literally! Thanks Floor for spelling it out to me😊
What I like here is that she both spoke and sang in Finnish, while the song does have English words and audience certainly understands English. Paying homage to the band and audience. There was no need, but she chose to take extra steps to connect with the audience. I am not sure how much Finnish she knows - might be some, considering it's the native tongue for most of Nightwish - but she being Dutch and having Swedish husband it must be like fourth or fifth language for her.
Hi, I remember recommending this to you. Floor was 6 months pregnant and singing in Finnish! Have you seen 'Ave Maria' by Floor and Marko yet? That would be another great one to check out. I hope to see more of your Floor and Nighwish reactions/reviews next year. Happy holidays and season's greetings from the Netherlands 🎄
Raskasta Joulua or 'Heavy Christmas' is a series of concerts featuring an ensemble band drawing from the vast pool of talent in Finland and from the wider community also. Floor, Tarja, Marko, Elize Ryd from Amaranthe have all made regular appearances. I'm pretty sure some of the musicians are from Sonata Arctica also. They rework traditional Christmas songs with a metal twist.
Watched it last year, watched again this year. Will likely watch it again next year. 🤷♂️ Nothing's better than vocal coaches I respect fangirling over Floor, because that's my exact reaction every time! (Though I'm definitely not a vocal coach, and I'm actually fanboying.)
I am with you Casey, just discovered her Feb 2020, and the woman is just unbelievable. She can sing any style she chooses any way she chooses and just perfection. I have always loved beautiful powerful vocals, and I can carry a tune myself, but the woman is just humbling and puts me in awe. She with all that vocal prowess is not in the slightest a diva, just so down to earth, sweet, and loves to laugh.
Thanks for listening with and for us. You said it about the voice so i keep out of that but on the extra's with Floor ,,, that smile. ❤🌲It warms me every time i see and experience it. Have a save and Merry Christmas, best wishes to you and you all there from the Netherlands
You MUST also watch Floir and Marko singing Ave Maria at one of these concerts. There are a few versions out there, one with Floor wearing black and one with her in a white dress. Both are incredible, but I prefer Marko’s rendition in the version where Floor wears black. Floor is brain-meltingly good and beautiful in both versions, of course 🤘🤘
Hi Casey, nice reaction to the amazing Floor.. She is the only vocalist that I have heard that constantly gives me goosebumps and tears. Not a day goes by that it doesn´t happen. The tone and colours of her voice is like medicine for the soul. Looking forward to your next one :)
You do you, nobody should be forced to avoid the finest things in life just because it’s not a first time reaction. Your struggle is everyone’s struggle and we genuinely love her as you so obviously do as well. A kind and sincere effort, thank you.
Despite not being Finnish and not speaking the language, this is my preferred version of the song too. Floor and the band (don't forget this amazing band) set the standard for me.
Every time you think you've heard everything she can do, she goes and does something else that leaves you Floored! ❤😁❤ Hey, it's NOT a bad pun if Floor is involved!! 😋😋 Oh yes, I also subscribed for you, hon! Very nice reaction! 🏆😀
Sorry, but your last 3 are not even in the top 50. I'm 76 and I've seen quite a few female singers in my time and have watched a lot of other singers on TH-cam from all over the world. Floor is #1 because of her stage presence, versatility, and her facial expressions when she sings.
Have you listened to her covers from Beste Zangers or her covers from her TH-cam channel? Lots of great material in various styles and languages to explore there
If you want to see Floor more up close, you should definitely look at the video's of the Dutch TV prgram "Beste Zangers 2019". Floor made a playlist, I think. And all 2019 episodes are also on TH-cam with English subtitles. There she shows off what she can do in eight episodes and you see her also in more private emotional settings during the show.
Nightwish Army USA division reporting for duty, I'm subscribing in hopes of more Floor & Nightwish . maybe call it the revisit tour and bring them to your channel and help promote them to the world of people who have not yet experience them yet.
I would suggest Ave Maria, because she used it herself to illustrate the different sorts of singing in her masterclass 4😁😁🤘🤘🤘🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🤘🤘💕💕💕🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
Great reaction Casey. I'm also a big fan of Floor Jansen and Nightwish. If you want to hear a lot of great singers, try this masterpiece from our dutch genius Arjen Anthony Lucassen - 'Ayreon - The Day The World Breaks Down'. th-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/w-d-xo.html I'm sure you will be blown away and there is also a surprise waiting for you ;-) Hope you will do a reaction to this masterpiece....can't wait to see your face 🙂 Greetings and lots of love from The Netherlands, Martin
I can see why you have that sense, both Dutch and Swedish being from the Germanic family of languages. Her Finnish isn't 100% perfect but it's pretty damn good.
Like said before - singing in Finnish. She is true MultiFuckingTalentEverything(tm).
Pregnant, singing in a foreign language,( a very difficult language ), singing perfect...yep, that is Floor.
HAIL the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Imagine how little Freja felt listening to and feeling this as she grew inside Floor's body. What a welcome to the world.
Most singers sing what they can. Floor sings anything she wants to. And she sings your soul right out of your body while she does it.
Floor looking at her most beautiful and singing in a language she hardly speaks. Fabulous.
Floor always makes me fall from my chair to the floor. And I like it . What angelic voice. Sublime !
You know she's a true athlete when being this pregnant does not affect her breathing technique
Still she said on Dutch TV that she does not do any sports or gym. Just taking care of the family, the dog, the horses and sing a lot every day.
Dancing to I Want My Tears Back every single time they played was a cardio routine on its own, as it is having a young child at home and her beloved pets. Active working moms don't necessarily need a gym
“I don’t even know what to say”…Yeah, that’s pretty much what all vocal coaches have to say about Floor 😁 !
Thinking she is about 6-7 months. I am sure this is Dec., her daughter was born early March, 2017. What can you say, she does everything great love her Ve Maria. She did it as Christmas gift to her fans during the pandemic. It was awesome.

This woman’s versatility & talent are in fact limitless.
And whenever she smiles…… ❤️ Good grief…
Floor is amazing powerful woman...is the Queen
I think you would like "VILJA LIED" singing by Floor in "BESTE ZANGERS"... and all the other songs she did in there.👍
That's what I was thinking, if this is new for her, than she probably hasn't heard Vilja Lied yet.
I'm fangirling and I 'm a 55 year old man. Floor just continues to prove just how amazeballs she
really is.
"Heavy" Floor for Christmas. So beautiful🌷. Merry Christmas from Finland. ⛄🎅🎄👍

Floor is the most accomplished singer of our generation and such a pity the whole does not know about her gift
Hard? Not for a Godess , even 6 months pregnant Floor is unstoppable!!!greetings from Portugal 🤘🤘
She’s pregnant and beautiful!
She is a goddess.❤

OMG she is sooooooooo good❤❤❤❤
We are with you. We are all fangirling over Floor. 🙏🙏🙏💖☝
Floor also sings the outro on the new Sabaton song, Christmas Treuce. Great song. Her husband is the drummer of that band.
Thanks for listening with and for us. You said it about the voice so i keep out of that but on the extra's with Floor ,,, that smile. ❤🌲It warms me every time i see and experience it. Have a save and Merry Christmas, best wishes to you and you all there from the Netherlands

Timothy I prefer this version where it is just Floor.
Hi Casey, nice reaction to the amazing Floor.. She is the only vocalist that I have heard that constantly gives me goosebumps and tears. Not a day goes by that it doesn´t happen. The tone and colours of her voice is like medicine for the soul. Looking forward to your next one :)
Yep see is more than great🤘
In finish.😊
Hi! I love hearing an Aussie on here. I hope you had a lovely Xmas, it was beautiful down here in Vic. And then my neighbours got me singing lol
Floor is an Angel clearly not of this Earth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Perfect.
I had never seen this, so good. Love it. Like you this is now my favorite Christmas song.
Valkyrie Goddess ☝☝
You do you, nobody should be forced to avoid the finest things in life just because it’s not a first time reaction.
Your struggle is everyone’s struggle and we genuinely love her as you so obviously do as well.
A kind and sincere effort, thank you.
You can see Floor slightly leaning forward to allow for breathing / singing around baby Freja.
Clever isn’t she!
I've been humming this all week. The love for Floor is strong. looking forward to more Floor and Nightwish. Thankyou and Merry Christmas,
Despite not being Finnish and not speaking the language, this is my preferred version of the song too. Floor and the band (don't forget this amazing band) set the standard for me.

You should check out the a cappella group Home Free doing O Holy Night. Completely different and equally impressive
Floor Jansen, Judith Durham, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner. The top 4 female singers of all time.
Sorry, but your last 3 are not even in the top 50. I'm 76 and I've seen quite a few female singers in my time and have watched a lot of other singers on TH-cam from all over the world. Floor is #1 because of her stage presence, versatility, and her facial expressions when she sings.
@@bennybuffylove Hey dude, ever heard of personal opinion. I stand by my top 4, and Floor only pips Judith Durham by a whisker.
Have you listened to her covers from Beste Zangers or her covers from her TH-cam channel? Lots of great material in various styles and languages to explore there
Floor herself said on Instagram back in 2016 that she was 29 weeks (7 months) pregnant when this particular performance was shot.
If you want to see Floor more up close, you should definitely look at the video's of the Dutch TV prgram "Beste Zangers 2019". Floor made a playlist, I think. And all 2019 episodes are also on TH-cam with English subtitles. There she shows off what she can do in eight episodes and you see her also in more private emotional settings during the show.
Looks fun to me, as a baby to hear your mother singing!
More Floor please. Wonderfull reaction and Merry Christmas to you and your family 🌲🥂 forget, Floor at Beste Zangers the Vilja Lied.🤘
I just came across this video. Very good analysis of Floor. I must say, I'm very smitten. 😍
Shes such a STAR !!!
Nightwish Army USA division reporting for duty, I'm subscribing in hopes of more Floor & Nightwish . maybe call it the revisit tour and bring them to your channel and help promote them to the world of people who have not yet experience them yet.
yes nobody seems to know them in the states and we must correct that
🇫🇮🇫🇮

Thanks
Please check out her version of "bad romance" with her previous band (Revamp)..
Please React Gabriel Henrique Oh Holy Night 🤯🇧🇷❤️
She was around 8 months.
So... You've mentioned, you've heard her in AF, NW and Ayreon, not in RV or SO. How about Northward, Avalon and Beste Zangers show?
☺️☺️☺️
👍👍👍🇳🇱🤟🤟🤟
heavy safe ass :) great big c over there and happy weekend.

As far as I can tell, Raskasta Joulua is sort of like a Finnish equivalent to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
Pleaseee react to Eva under fire until forever and icon for hire anything
Töihin vain !
She sounds like Suomen ruotsalaiset
I can see why you have that sense, both Dutch and Swedish being from the Germanic family of languages. Her Finnish isn't 100% perfect but it's pretty damn good.
@@mikeprevost8650 I learned what Finnish I know from finlandssvenskar so it's an accent I'm pretty used to.
Being Finnish Swedish she sound nothing such...her Finnish is amazingly good and her pronouncing is just spot on...
@@Piia2023 OK. I can only comment as an outsider.
@@mattphillips538 the closest I could think of that speak swedish is someone from the island Ahvenanmaa or Åland...
I'll tell you a secret of Floor... you ask what she can't do?ok;I'll tell you... Floor just can't sing badly!
Floor is singing in finnish which she only barely speaks
🤬
