  • Floor Jansen (‪@nightwish‬) covering "Alone" by Heart in her studio!
    Picking Alone from ‪@thebandheart‬ (Heart) as my second cover on UA-cam felt like the right decision. I have performed this song with Nightwish, After Forever and even at the Christmas Metal Symphony! So when I saw many of you requesting this song, I got to work! Hope you enjoy it!

    LYRICS:
    I hear the ticking of the clock
    I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
    I wonder where you are tonight
    No answer on the telephone
    And the night goes by so very slow
    Oh I hope that it won't end though
    Alone
    Till now I always got by on my own
    I never really cared until I met you
    And now it chills me to the bone
    How do I get you alone
    How do I get you alone
    You don't know how long I have wanted
    To touch your lips and hold you tight, oh
    You don't know how long I have waited
    and I was going to tell you tonight
    But the secret is still my own
    and my love for you is still unknown
    Alone
    Till now I always got by on my own
    I never really cared until I met you
    And now it chills me to the bone
    How do I get you alone
    How do I get you alone
    How do I get you alone
    How do I get you alone
    Alone, alone

    Dear Floor,
    I have been dating my current partner for almost half a year now. I am extremely grateful for him introducing me to Nightwish, and of course, your solo work. It’s amazing what you can learn from someone in such a short amount of time. I never knew anything about symphonic metal, or metal really, for that metal. I always stayed focused on indie, alt rock, pop, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, Twenty One Pilots, and I still love those musicians but I have to say your voice - and Nightwish in its current form - are truly mesmerizing and I think I say it in agreement and as the voice for many people who may never have the opportunity to write a message like this - but you are absolutely the definition of pure joy, bliss, passion, and effort in a singer / creator. Thank you. I wish you happiness and health in your recovery and future. Please continue to bless the worlds ears with your soul.
    Sending love and light from a small town in Ohio, USA

    I have seen you in " best singers of the Netherlands. I had never heard from you before. The first note you sang I was hooked on. You have the most beautiful powerful voice wich you can change in a split second in a gentle breeze that eases my mind. Floor, you have a fan for life.
    I am in a wheelchair because of chronic pain.
    When the hurt blows my mind, I put in my earphones and listen to the songs you sang at" best singers"
    Then slowly the pain drifts away..... So I can sleep anf Have a good night rest.

    Absolutely amazing. The vocal range on this woman is mind blowing, and this is certainly one of THE best vocal covers I've heard. Period. I'd heard an earlier version of her singing this, found it here on UA-cam in fact, and I recall showing it to one of my lady friends who at the time listened mostly to pop, R&B and some hip hop. Halfway through the song, she was speechless, and by its conclusion, her eyes were welled up (so were mine). Trust me, she was a fan after that.

      Floor is concurring the world right now, and her reach will go far beyond the Nightwish army. She will keep doing covers, as long as the corona crazyness will go on. Her initiative to start a cover series on her own UA-cam channel will make her truly world famous. All the voice coach reactions on YT will help push her forward at rocket speed. And she deserves it So much. Her last cover went over a million views in less than two weeks, and this one will do the same. Millions and millions of new people will learn to know Floor, and how good she is. I am so happy for her, finally getting the worldwide recognition she deserves. As an artist, as a magnificent vocalist, and as a wonderful person.

      she has a big following but being with Nightwish got everyone going..."Tarja is better" and i, honestly prefer Floor than the other 2 singers they had. To me its not that she is better or not but rather, her voice register is like throwing a warm soft blanket over me while i am sleeping. She has a register that i love to hear from a female vocalist when everyone else wants to praise women who hits super high notes.

    Everyone notices the stunning high note, but I just wanted to let you know how much I am impressed by the richness of your lower notes. For me some of your best “Wow” moments are your low singing. Such an amazing range in both directions. With all of that hard work you put in on training and practicing, you make everything seem so effortless! Thank you for sharing your gifts and talents. I hope you can get back on the stage soon and share with us even more!

    Hello everyone, the Dutch fans of Nightwish are trying to vote some Nightwish songs into the NPO Top 2000. This is an annual hit list at the end of the year by the Dutch radio station Radio2 with the 2000 most appreciated songs. Every year you can vote for your favorite songs, and people living in other countries than The Netherlands can also vote. I will vote again this year because I think that Floor deserves more recognition in her own country, where most radio stations almost never play Nightwish. The name of the fanmade Facebook Group is "Nightwishindetop2000". I'm almost sure that this year we will vote for these 5 songs:
    *Ghost Love Score (live) - this is the Wacken 2013 version which made it into the Top 2000 edition 2019
    *Elan
    *Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort
    *Shoemaker
    *How's The Heart
    Voting starts on 1 December and the deadline is 6 or 7 December.

      Well, I voted for 35 songs, when only GLS, Elan and Phantom of the Opera were available , IOW, added 32 songs , including Floor's solo covers, a few Beste Zangers songs, and about 30 NW songs :). Was a bit of work, with all the justifications, but worth it IMO :).
      BTW, anybody can vote for these, apparently - you don't have to be a Dutch fan .... And the more votes, the better :).

      Its not a Heart song as their version was a cover as well. It was written and released by a band called I-Ten a few years before Heart covered it and the lead singer was a guy. Heart made it famous but it's not their song. It easily findable on youtube, I'd link it but I'm on mobile.

Totally amazed by your voice I started to listen to your former bands, came across "Beste Zangers" (wow!) and finally your channel. Just wanted to tell you how absolutely stunned I am by your voice, even songs I do not really like shine bright when you sing them.
    And this song? I love the original. I absolute adore your version. It's not your amazing voice alone, it is the feeling, the emotions you transport - I believe that you really feel every single Word you sing, and that is such a rare thing. Thank you for being and singing!
