By the way, Henk Poort is a classical singer that learned to growl like that only several weeks before this performance, so he could sing Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence. Gotta respect the hell out of him for that.

Floor killed it as she was performing with her childhood idol who played the Phantom when she saw the play as a young girl!!! Check out the rest of her stunning performances in this show as she sang in different genres and different languages and killed each and everyone of them. Great reaction and the look on your faces throughout was all I need to see, forget your commentary those looks and open mouths were great!!!

@Peter Ang : It is the Nightwish arrangement -- Tuomas lowered the scale by a whole step when he composed his arrangement for Tarja -- it's why Floor only hits a D6, instead of the original E6.

@isaiahwelch8066

3 жыл бұрын

@Peter Ang : It is not the original arrangement. To say that is being musically ignorant. The original Christine, per the original composition, is supposed to hit an E6 -- and the composition here, at the same point in the piece, hits only a D6. Therefore, the composition played during Beste Zangers is not the original, as the difference between the two is a full step in scale. And since the original composition is not being used, then the only conclusion that can be reached is that since Floor Jansen is singing, and her day job is singing for Nightwish, then it is only logical that the composition is the Nightwish composition.

@@isaiahwelch8066 Problem is that Tarja sang the E6 in the Nightwish arragement... and so could Floor if she wanted to. Her Range is up to F6. It was just a musical choice cause she holds the D6 for over 7 seconds at the end. Something even she cant do singing the E6. And I never heared any version where any singer could do that.

All of floors beste hangers performance are incredibly awesome.

That last note is a D6 and she held it for 8!!!!!!! seconds with power behind it, all the time. But I just love, how clear and pure her voice is. She can just change her style and tone at will, add effects to it. Don't forget Henk, who still has a brilliant voice at 65 years. He was the Dutch Phantom for many years and Andrew Lloyd Webber's favorite one. A true master. Floor has got a musical crush on him. He uses distortion for the second time in his life, here. The first time was his rendition of "Sound of Silence" (Close to the Disturbed-V.ersion), sung for Floor, at the same show. A performance worth watching.

Floor ,the Valkyrie Queen. She hold the D6 clear over 6or8 sec.That make me speachless . She is the best..👍🤗❤

shes literally the greatest singer in the history of existence

The look on your faces when she held that D6 for 8 seconds with no flaws was absolutely precious!!! You need to check out all her performance from this Beste Zengers show. Also, since you like Henks voice his version of 'Sound of Silence' from same show. He learn a special thing to do with his voice just for Floor.

The BEST singer on the planet ! Everybody take y knee and bow to the Goddess Queen Floor !!! Great Reaction 👌😉, guys ! Love from Tennessee !

whoever Chris is, thank you guy for requesting Floor Jansen and Nightwish all the time. It's a pleasure to watch these reactions. And listening to Floor is always a highlight no matter what song, what genre, what performance. She is Simply the Best (as Tina would say). Not to forget Henk did a fantastic job which is no surprise as he is the original Phantom in the Netherlands.

I'm guessing Henk could probably sing this in his sleep. He was the original Phantom in the first Dutch production of it in the 90s. And, well, Floor is just so bloody versatile. She can sing anything, and, make it sound amazing.

I'm so proud Floor is also Dutch,lets not forgett Henk.

Henk does a cover of the sound of Silence, Floor loves the version done by the band Disturbed. And he did it for her. The look on floor's face when he absolutely nails it big time is priceless

D6 for a 8 sec- and Henk was Floor's big idol in her youth 😍🎩💐 greetings from Czech Republic 🇨🇿

Fun fact, it was a demand of Floor for doing this show: she could duet this with Henk. The plan for the 2020 Nightwish tour was that he would perform with them. But well... that obviously didnt happen

Just FYI, Henk is the Phantom of the Opera that Floor looked up to when she was younger. So she said she was totally fan girling during this. Which is so sweet. Their voices blend really well during this. And I loved this because I am a HUGE POTO fan! My family go Everytime we can. You should react to Floor's other Beste Zangers moments but, with the subtitles. You get to hear why they pick the songs they pick. And the other singers reactions to the performance! Especially when she sings Tim's song "Winner" and when she sings " Mama" EVERYONE CRIES! She sings in English, German and Spanish. But she doesn't speak Spanish. Can you imagine rewriting music and trying to figure out how to sing in a language you don't know??? The amazing thing about this show is that you are a n a small venue and have to adapt you singing from huge concert halls to a small room of your peers. So the music and your voice have to be pared down a lot. You can easily over or underwhelm that space. And Floor dominates it! It's nice to see her vocal gymnastics!!!

Queen to D6, Checkmate! Henk was the phantom in the Dutch production of the original stage musical, and reportedly Andrew Loyd Webber's favourite of all the singers who have played the part. So he knows the part perfectly, with over 600 performances! Floor was taken to see the production as a child and absolutely idolises Henk, and he is a huge fan of hers too. This was a late addition to the show when they realised it would be possible - Henk agreed to the duet as long as he could perform it again with Nightwish when they were next playing in the Netherlands, Tuomas agreed, so it is, at last, back in the setlist. Now we don't know (because of covid) when it will be possible, but reactions to it are going to be massive (and undoubtedly positive) come the day it happens. I'd walk there from the UK over broken glass on my crutches to be there, but zero chance of me making it, sadly, as I can only manage about 10 metres at a stretch and my mobility scooter only has a range of about 30 miles before an overnight recharge :-(

God said: "the world needs a Valkyrie goddess with the voice of an angel". Floor: You rang?

Floor is an expert in duet singing. Henk sings on the beat 'in Your mind..' whereas Floor does 'in -My mind' with a small delay, so we hear both.

Yes I also agree with Freethinker that Shallow is another one from the Beste Zangers series to check out. There's actually two versions. One with Floor solo and a duet with Floor and Tim Ackerman. Both are fantastic!

Everyone is talking about these amazing actors/singers, but no one react to this amazing Marcel Fisher band and their background singers. IMO world highest level of musicians. They played everything the singers ask them, classical, rock, pop, folk, opera, metal, country. and so on

As you might have read, Henk is our own, Dutch, real Phantom. He performed this role for Webber for many years. ‘ Best Phantom’ according to Webber himself! Proud to be Dutch!

This show is very unique and allows you to see the immense diversity of Floor's talent. Recommend reaction to every song she sings in this show season. However, don't skip any Nightwish in the process. Loved your reactions.

This gave me chills every time i listen!!! If you want to watch more Floor stripped down perfomances you should see her performing "Shallow" on this same show "Beste Zangers" and a acustic live version, with just her and troy performing "How's the Heart" a song from the new Nightwish album. You will be amazed by her power and control! Cheers all! Love all of your reactions!

as someone wrote "Floor Jansen the swiss army knife of singing!" Most versitaille singer ever witnessed! Great reactions! Keep them coming!

The expression on your faces and your body language .. so great to see! And the genuine pleasure. Great reaction guys.

A couple of quick notes: Henk is a classically-trained professional Opera/ musical performer. He did over 1,000 performances of Phantom of the Opera, Dutch language. Floor has a big fan crush on him, and lists him as one of her idols/influences. He learned how to use distortion specifically so he could perform this song with Floor. Check out his performance of Sound of Silence. kzread.info/dash/bejne/o5N2rMOGXbjYiMY.html

'Yours is an empty hope' is a headbanger. You'll love it

Love your reaction! I've seen Henk Poort live in The Phantom togheter with my parents and grandmother (she was a big fan of Henk Poort)

Floor is just the best, The Beste Zanger 😎

TWH.....Same show she kills Shallow. Sings in Dutch, German, English and Spanish ( Spanish from memory ) She sings Opera, Folk, Pop, Rock and Salsa. Check it out you gonna like it !

a month ago I showed this video of the Phantom to my mother , and immediately afterwards i showed the video of Revamp (former band of Floor Jansen) with the song "Disdain" live at graspop. My mother had never heard of Floor Jansen, so when the second song was over, i told my mom that in both videos the singer was the same person. My mom couldn't believe it. The surprised face was really funny. Maybe you can try that with someone you know, just for fun. LOVE YOUR REACTIONS.

Her face shows she hears almost every nuance to Floor's voice and has a similar experience to mine and I think that is amazing

Henk: *Sing for me!!!* Floor: *You think you got a few extra arms to hold my bottles of beer?*

all of the comments..are so correct 😊 Floor is in my opinion the.. greatest singer..or in dutch...de beste zanger..😊..and your reactions do kill it..awesome.. please react to all her songs on this show..i think youll like it a lot

She holds a D6 for 8 seconds, not a big deal for her.and henk and the band are amazing too.

Look as far as I'm concerned, right now she's the best all around vocalist on the planet, hands down. And Danny Carey?, best drummer, period.....

Guys, since you did that, you should check out Nightwish's cover of the Phantom of the Opera (live of course, from the "End of an Era" DVD) with their original singer, Tarja Turunen! Floor is their third singer actually and what most people don't realize is that most of the songs people love (like Ghost love score, Romanticide etc...) are songs written for Tarja's voice! Check it out and compare! Keep rockin'!!

Floor is the greatests female singer i have ever heard to this day.

This is a solid D6 held for 7-8 seconds. In The Greatest Show On Earth, she hits a G5 repeatedly at the end of not only a 20-minute song but a whole concert.

This is how a phantom should always sound

Yes great singers the both of them for sure but I want to bring your attention to the Marcel Fisser Band that backed them up. They have played every song on Beste Zangers since the beginning of the show and they are among the best musicians in the Netherlands. They really brought glory to themselves on this performance.

Floor is the best, she is also a vocal coach.. if y'all like henk, the show, henk sings the sound of silence the distrub version. I recommend that one for y'all to see

That voice damn!! Soo freakin love Floor!!

Floor was in a band called "After Forever" and she did a little solo deal called "ReVamp". Y'all should check them out as well!

Fantastic reaction as usual Suzy and Travis. I agree totally with Freethinker below, please react to "Shallow" from the Best Zangers show. Floor sings this song with only a piano behind her. She now owns this song as far as I am concerned.

Henk also did a glorious version of Sound of Silence, the Disturbed version (in honour of Floor's love for metal). Check it out!

Floor has magic hair and three lungs 😁

Hi the beste zangers programs works as follows. A group of singers are selected and invited to a Dutch island in the Caribbean each artist sings a tribute song to an artist there. From their own songs or songs they admire or grew up on. The best episodes are the Duet episodes. When floor was invited to join. The show. She only accepted if her childhood hero opera singer Henk poort would sing with her phantom of the opera. Another fact. That before this show. Only a few Dutch people knew who floor was or what nightwish was. So this show. Finally gave floor the credit and respect she deserves in our home country the Netherlands 🇳🇱. Off all the songs on this show. You should listen to Tim Akkerman. Sing Bring him home. In Dutch. Breng hem thuis. Henk poort was not only the phantom but also Jean villjean in les mis. And if you really want to be schocked. Then look up. Also from beste zangers. Tanya and Christiaan A soprano and pop singer. A duet. Singing Barcelona from Freddy mercury and Monserrat Gabriela. It will blow your mind. That’s promise

She is the voice of Never Never Land.

All the songs she sings on this show are worthy to be listened to 💓💓💓💓💓💓

Floor grew up almost idolizing Henk, who has performed as the phantom for years, so this was like a dream come true for Floor, so that distortion done by Henk was "perfected" just before they filmed this..... having distortion goes against operatic singing, but he nailed it.......the word on the street was that he didnt want to let her down!!! he also has performed this in concert with Henk!!! they are best buddies now, its truly a great story......so, if you want to hear Floor go higher than that.......then react to this....... kzread.info/dash/bejne/h5mI26OTpLmbp6w.html but be prepared, it will knock your socks off!!!

Hello guys! from central america Nicaragua, nice band keep up the good work. :)

Doesn't get much better than that people! Thanks Wolf HunterZ crew for another entertaining reaction to a sublime performance:0. Well done Chris:)

Yes, Floor can do a D6 for over 8 seconds at full projection. And she's gone higher. When Floor rolls a D6, it's a critical success.

What a fantastic Duo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love your voice! Your voice just is so damn good to hear! I like that roughness of your voice! I love it!

You should definitely check out Nightwish - Romanticide, live at Wacken 2013. Towards the end of the song, Floor belts out this insane banshee wail, going perfectly up and down the scale. Talk about voice control and power!

Henk played the phantom, I think it really comes across in this.

Floor is at home in all markets , Marijke , The Netherlands.

Hardly anybody knows her or the band Nightwish in her home country the Netherlands. This tv program did not change that.

That thunder at the beginning was real, not a sound effect - this show was filmed outdoors, under a tent (in Ibiza, I think?) and a huge storm blew in while they were filming. You might also notice some drips coming down, where the tent was leaking a bit. Floor being our Valkyrie Goddess, we suspect Thor might have showed up to listen! :-)

I dont know if you've reacted to more performances from this show/season, but if not... beware of the rabbit hole... Everyone you saw in the video, is a singer of talent, and each has given us at least one or two songs that were pure gold. Henk and Floor stood out tho, both gave perfect performances in each episode, you cant go wrong with any of those songs they did. A simple to make prediction on what people are now going to suggest... simple like i said, everything Floor, everything Henk (minus one song), most of Rolf, Emma and Tim, some of Samantha and Ruben. It's songs from all across the board, rock to traditional Dutch, to Latin to classical and musical theater and anything inbetween, but each time the standards are very high to say the least. Either way, just an "early warning" on what to expect if you go down this (lovely) road to discover more from this amazing tv show. Ty for the great reaction :D

another netherlands group to check out is OG3NE they are 3 Dutch sisters with out of this world Harmonies they appeared on Beste Zangers 2 years before Floor in 2016 they performed Clown by Emile Sande and also Sing by Ed Sheeran adding their own technique called Echoing. They won The Voice of Holland in 2014 check out OG3NE Magic the studio video

Her style of singing in this song, with the small "wicked vocal twist" in the line "the phantom of the opera is there" seems to switch the whole story. you could think he is the one being possessed by her. I love this song soooo much

Floor Jansen has been a professional singer since 1997 she was 16, when she joined the band After Forever

Love the reaction you guys. Keep doing the reactions, you guys are so cool. Makes this 60 yo metal head smile.

Hello you two lovely metal heads, you still only have experienced fractions of Floor's capabilities - but I guess you already know that. If you take a complete session of Floor's singing in Beste Zangers, you'll see her in different languages and styles - and before this show, she was fairly unknown in The Netherlands - well, that changed (she had to do 10!! ekstra shows afterwards, which were sold out in less than 24 hours!!) - the last one is postponed due to COVID-19, but will come, be recorded and put on the NET for free, due to crowd funding, Floor arranged (ehh, she went a little bit over budget 😂 - in a couple of hours from the Nightwish Army). But next - just to show another side of Floor - please react to: While Love Died, from Northward, 2018. Pure, sweaty happy hard rock - only drums, a guitar and Floor (guitarist is Bjørn Viggo Lofstad from Pagan's Mind - awesome guitar ist). She also has her sister singing in the song " Drifting Islands" on this album - Irene is taller than Floor!! But that just means more volume for power voice - it is actually hard to say who is singing some times - Irene is also a very talented singer!! Just go for it the Army will fill you in if any questions 🤘 🤘 Just enjoy

We love you both as well!

Thats true she is the Queen of metal i'm prout to be Dutch 🤘😁🤘

D6 for Eight Seconds. if it's possible for a Soprano, Floor does it with ease. she does things other sopranos don't think they can do. why she is our Valkyrie Queen.

You gotta react to "Yours is an empty hope" one of the heaviest stuff by Nightwish. Pretty sure you'll love this one.
