I'm a man, former USMC, been in more than a few bar fights aka fistfights, been locked up on several occasions. I'm 65 years old and get a lump in my throat when I hear Floor sing this to the point where sometimes I feel a tickly sensation moving down my face only to find out there's water coming out of my eyes. Truth. Floor pierces my heart with her singing. I'm not the least bit embarrassed or ashamed and if anyone ridicules me for it I'll slap the s**t outta you. PEACE
Thanks for sharing your story! I think It's due to her being very authentic and genuine (honest). What you see is what you get., combined with the amazing talent of her vocals.
Thats because you are obviously an awesome man!! There is nothing in this world sexier than a tough man so touched by music that they shed a tear! Bravo sir and thank you!
@@jamelakajamal You have to react to more from the Beste Zangers Show. Almost everything has been phenomenal, but you should definitely do these. ua-cam.com/video/lGYtFfgQoSQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/q_BJaM-UrXc/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/6kxocWr0YHI/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/BCMiKnwuqb0/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/ahykaAPHhs8/v-deo.html As others have said, this not a competition, just a great singing show with a second to none house band.
Floor is a singing goddess. On this show she sang In German, Dutch, Spanish and English in the first 4 weeks and nailed them all. She can do anything 😍🤘
The show is really neat, it is a bunch of Dutch singers getting together to celebrate each other. Each week, one person is the featured singer and the other singers sing songs that the featured singer wrote or is known for singing or even songs that have meaning to them. This could be things totally outside the other singers' comfort zones or normal style. Emma Heesters (the blonde in red) was the featured singer this week and she is known for her UA-cam covers. The other songs from this week are worth checking out as well. A UA-camr named Denise Hofs has put up subtitled episodes on her channel, they are really interesting to watch.
Denise Hofs has English subtitle translations of the discussions on the couch before and after each singer sings. She deserves a lot of credit for taking the time to do the translating for the many of us that have been watching the episodes that don't speak Dutch. The singers all talk about what they are going to sing and why they chose the particular song. In this case Emma Heesters was the one being sung to by each of the other artists. A different artist is honored each week. Note that they are all good but to me especially Floor and Henk Poort (opera singer with a great sense of humor). The final episode of the show for the season will be duets. Henk and Floor will do Phantom of the Opera, a role he has starred in many times.
@@djclaudeus please do...he does every genre...my faves...SOS at the slavic bazaar, daybreak and the diva dance at Bastau and Ogni Pietra at Arnau and Adagio and Autumn strong from the talent show in china " the singer" he sings in 12 different languages so most have subtitles. Obviously im pretty passionate about this artist..but i think you'll see why. Do let me know if you like him if u can😉😁
@@mjmckenrick3170 I listened to Dimash several times before. His voice is technically amazing and in that point, he's probably the best. But imho he lacks of emotion. He's kinda cold. Floor instead is warm and can be fire. But hey that's just what I feel. 😉
Dutch TV show: Take 7 famous singers of different styles and backgrounds, famous in Holland itself or outside of Holland, stick them on an island to get to know each other, then make them pick a song from each other singer's repertoire or that was an influence on them, and sing it to them. The singer in the "hot seat" has to pick which song blew them away the most. In this case, Floor was singing to Emma (the young blond woman in red) who was the biggest Dutch UA-camr. She'd done a cover of Lady Gaga's Shallow and Floor picked that to sing to her. There is a talk show element to it to introduce the singers to the Dutch audience who may not have heard of them before because they were famous outside of Holland. Almost the opposite of a competition, they're very encouraging of each other, kind, supportive, always hugging, laughing, wiping away tears... it's disgustingly wholesome. lol!
When an angel sings, mortals weep tears of joy. I showed this to my Navy buddy a while ago, had him take a shot of whiskey to loosen him up, sat him down and he was sitting there tryna be stone but tears were just *running* down his cheeks.
Just imaging: Floor is sitting like 10 feet in front of you and singing like that. Man.........i would melt like butter in the sun, really. and i cried so so many tears because of her voice. Tears of joy....and i cannot even explain. Never ever has a voice touched me like hers.
Been a fan of Floor going on 20+ years. Loved her in After Forever. Seeing her take off makes me so happy. Shes earned it. Shes got such an incredible range from growling Death Metal, to Opera, to tear-inducing smooth cooing. Shes an absolute treasure. Nightwish hit a homerun picking her up. If your skin doesn't bump listening to this you have no emotion.
I have to mention that they were isolated in a house, at Ibiza. The goal was to get to know each other, so they could choose the song that means something to each singer. They created very intimate atmosphere, where singers care and support each other, compared to competition shows where's some nasty energy displayed. That's why this show drawn so much attention...and because all of them have a magic of their own. Btw, two blondes made Floor cry, when they sang to her. 😊
Great message about letting the tears out... strong men cry when they see/hear beauty like Floor. If you don't then you need psychological assistance... and probably need to be locked away for the safety of the public in general
The episode where Floor is on the couch is worth watching, too. Emma's rendition of Floor's old song 'Strong' (from the After Forever days) puts one's finer feeling through a meat grinder.
She did a number of songs on this show, one of which is a translation she and her sister made of deeply personal song by Ruben (The young guy in a striped shirt with the dark curly hair) and she made him almost break down completely telling her "It's absurd how you make everything better" :) That one hit me right in the feels and I had tears in my eyes. It was called About Love I Don't Know a Thing. This one is also amazing, but hey, it's Floor so it's kind of a given ;)
Floor is a really STUNNING SINGER. She,s OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING. Jamel, if you want to hear another very young Dutch AWESOME and UNIQUE BRILLIANT SINGER, then listen to the just 15 year old world famous Amira Willighagen singing AMAZING GRACE at the Classics is groot concert 2017 when she was just13 years old. You won,t believe your ears and your heart will cry Happy tears. It,s OUT STANDING.
This is the sixth episode, there is one more to come this Saturday. She was on the couch once so that means she has sung to six people. Well worth checking out. #1 Vilja lied - in German .. she is singing to Henke Porte .. Opera, stage singer - song sung to him by his mother #2 Mama - in Dutch - singing to Samantha (her song) #3 Qué Se Siente - in Spanish - For Rolf .. his song .. he is a salsa singer #4 I don't know a thing about love - for Rubin .. his song about parent's divorce #5 Floor was on the couch #6 Shallow as was said, check out the complete episodes translated with English subtitles by Denise Hoff - ua-cam.com/users/NiiiZo
"What is this show?" - in short, a celebration of music. They take 7 singers from wildly different backgrounds, ages and genres and have them sing to each other, either a song from their own repertoire, or a song that is very meaningful to them. Shallow was chosen by the 6'1" Floor to sing for the episode where Emma Heesters was in the spotlight. Emma is a young and upcoming UA-cam cover singer who had a ot of success with her own cover of Shallow. There is no competition here, just singers being asked to sing to each other and go out of their comfort zone. doing so. One recommendation I'd love, Love, LOVE to see you do is Henk Poort - Sound of Silence, a song he chose to sing for Floor. Henk is a famous Dutch Opera singer and basically Floor's ideol. If you want to see what Floor looks like when she's in absolute bliss, and if you want to hear a voice that can atch Floor's own, listen to that one. The final episode of the season is duets, and Henk and Floor are doing Phantom of the Opera. So look forward to that, in a week and a half.
I was surprised to find that it's in something like its 12th season. There's also a Belgian version, which is pretty good (I spent some time in The Netherlands so, while I'd not pretend to understand the language, I can mostly follow the Dutch and Belgian shows)
Bro, i came into this show a huge fan of Floor and ended up being fans of all the other singers. Very cool show. hope you check out more from Floor on this show! nothing she cant do! PLEASE PLEASE watch her do "que se siente"
The song is kept really small but her vocal must makes those high-notes with all the power it contains... It's breath-taking. The show is called "Beste zangers van Nederland"
Here this is the proof that you don't listen to Floor when she sings..NO YOU EXPERIENCE HER!!!. If there is no reaction well then you are already dead and it makes no difference. She does truly stir the soul with her emotional presentation in her songs. You should check out her other songs from this show, before this she did 4 different genres in 4 different languages!! She has stunned this group of professional singers each and every week let along the TV audience that tunes in for this Dutch program. Floor is a true Valkyries Goddess as she stands 6' 1" in her bare feet, add those heels she loves to wear and "I look up to Floor" has a whole new meaning!!!
Floor Jansen - Winner. The song was written by Tim Akkerman about his brother that is in a wheelchair but has not let that hold him down. After it came out she announced she would do a limited tour with the backing band from the show. All the venues sold out in a day. She has also been working on the new Nightwish album and getting ready for their tour to kick off.
You need to react to Floor singing Vilja Lied from this show. People always say she sounds operatic but there she sings something actually classical (but with a bit of a metal flavor of course). It's a song where she really shows off her voice.
I was told by some Europeans that Dutch people are, on average, the tallest people in Europe. I have first-hand experience with this phenomenon, having flown on KLM, the national airline of The Netherlands. It seems they find all the tallest and best-looking women in the country to hire as flight attendants. I highly recommend it. Requests: (I have links if you want them.) Arch Enemy -- Bloodstained Cross Ra -- Do You Call My Name Band-Maid -- Play
Actually we Dutch are on average the tallest people IN THE WORLD! I'm a 59 year old male and I'm 1,85 m (6'2") tall. My 25 year old son is 1,98 m (6'6").
Nice reaction man. Yes this version is really sweet but powerfull at the same time, we just can feel the emotion trough her voice and Floor Jansen just really good to how she interpret every song that she sing so it delivered well.
As a Dutch metal fan its amazing to see how much talent Floor has, not to mention how much joy it gives seeing people from all over the world react to it x3.
I'm tough, and as soon as I get this speck of dirt that flew in my eye out, I'm going to listen to Meshuggah. In all honesty, this is just amazing. There are no proper words in my vocabulary to describe her voice.
The world would be a better place if everyone would watch music with you...thank you for what you do... and again like I said in another video of yours, love the beard!!
Jamel , if you want a tought fight against tears , try her song from the same show " About love I don't know a thing" , it's very hard to win !!! you should also try , from the same show , "the sound of silence" from the opéra singer Henk Poort , it's speechless !!
He was amazing, but the only way to be speechless by his performance is if you did not see David Draiman from disturbed do that same version first. If you haven't seen it, watch that version.
This is a tvshow comes 1 a year. The people on the seats are singers. They perform each other songs in a different way and sing some other songs witch are suitable for them. No prize, just glory. And live too with the best musicians and back-up vocals.
The show is what you see, musicians singing for other musicians. No competition so there is no winner. Every week one of the musicians is in the headlights, and the others sing one of his/her song. Or a song that is special to them
Well, I'm watching this reaction at 20 past midnight towards the end of April 2020. The world's in lockdown. Things are bleak but we press on. And this voice just lets me escape all the shit that's happening in the world, just for a minute or two. December the 18th of this year I will hopefully be seeing Floor with Nightwish in London. That concert will make me finally realise that everything will be ok. Be safe.
This show is a show in the Netherlands called The Best Singers. It runs for quite some time now and it's a show in wich, per season a group of well known singers singing each others songs. This led to some real pearls like this one here.
Listen to Floor singing "About love I don't know a thing" in the same show. It's her English version of his Dutch song (Ruben, the guy you where talking about). He's letting it all out, and of course Floor is singing another beautiful song.
I am glad that i saw your reaction video.. also the one with Henk Poort together.. but i do also hope that you want to do some other songs from the Beste Zangers shows! Because they were truly great and blessed!!
Look at the photos of her next to the rest of Nightwish, and even when subtracting for 3" to 4" heels, she is taller then the tallest member of that band. Tuomos is supposed to be 6'2" - 6' 3" and she towers over him in those photos. I've worked with a few very tall women and they all try to minimize their height. Floor will often scrunch down in photos to not look taller than the rest of Nightwish. Wanna piss her off? Ask her about her height. My guess is 6' 3" to 6'4". Check this out - she's taller than Tuomos with his top hat. www.dmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/nightwish.jpg . The most she wears is a 4" heel and on stage, more like 2" to 3". Been married a very long time and spent way too much time in shoe stores with SWMBO, so ya, I'm really good at figuring out high heels.
@@billattercliffe8655 She was asked during an Instagram live chat and said 183cm, which is just a touch over 6ft. I'm inclined to believe the lady herself. Her sister is actually taller than her. Tuomas is listed at 1.88m, so 6'1 and a half. Aside from Floor crouching for stage photos, likely for the photographer's benefit, she's one of the few tall ladies I've never seen try to shrink herself. She wears 3" heels regularly, and those are bloody uncomfortable lol More power to her.
Sup Jamal...gotta get this 1 since you liked jinjer- anything by spiritbox, absolutely anything.amazing band.amazing vocalist (Courtney laplante). You'll love it. Gotta get it man. Maybe several.PLEASE
This was fantastic. Jamel...please please give a listen to this....."Jill's Theme" from the movie "Once Upon A Time In the West ". The opening and end songs. Make sure it's the original. Utterly beautiful and beyond words. My favorite song of all time. You won't be sorry.
In this show, the artists either sing each other song or a song that means something for someone in the couch. It is perfect for Floor, since She is so versatile. A metalhead that can sing blues, Pop, jazz, opera, salsa, you name it. If You gave her like few weeks She would be able to sing flamenco.
I've already seen people explain "what is this show" so i wont bother with that, but i will add something tiny to it. If you are a lover of real music, then this is the best tv show you can find, no drama, no competition, just plain and simple in setup, with the single goal being real music and real emotions, a celebrations of the love for music and singing in general. This is how quality television used to be, this is what we call "slow tv" (yet an episode flies by as if only 5 minutes have passed) The way this show brings the singers together, gives us these amazing performances. I'd suggest checking out Denise Hofs translated episodes (full) to get an idea about the show and other singers. (they are all great singers, from different backgrounds and genres, so well worth checking out) Great reaction man, really enjoyed that :D
I'm a man, former USMC, been in more than a few bar fights aka fistfights, been locked up on several occasions. I'm 65 years old and get a lump in my throat when I hear Floor sing this to the point where sometimes I feel a tickly sensation moving down my face only to find out there's water coming out of my eyes. Truth. Floor pierces my heart with her singing. I'm not the least bit embarrassed or ashamed and if anyone ridicules me for it I'll slap the s**t outta you. PEACE
Krakon Army vet...me too.

Semper fi, brother. Thank you for your service.
Floor is one of the greatest female vocalists of our generation.
Yes Indeed🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Imo she is the greatest singer right now male or female. So versatile in any genre. Shes amazing

We got the same show in Norway and Sweden as well. It's a great "feel good" show.
I watched the same show but Belgian, maybe two or three years ago. There was another great Dutch symphonic metal singer Sharon den Adel there.
She is by far (imo) the best female vocalist on this planet right now!!!❤🔥🎶🎶🎶
I would say best vocalist period!

She is my number ONE female singer of the world ! Her voice sound full emotions with dept dynamics and color so amazing . I loved her .
To me, FLOOR is The Best Female Singer...and I've heard them All.
Theres no shame in my game ...Floors Heavenly voice brings me to tears on a regular basis
This woman's voice brings me to tears on the regular.
She brought tears to my eyes just now.
the fact that her idol is just watching her with so much pride makes this even better
Every time I hear floor sing she brings out all types of emotions. She is just incredible.
Great message about letting the tears out... strong men cry when they see/hear beauty like Floor. If you don't then you need psychological assistance... and probably need to be locked away for the safety of the public in general

This is the sixth episode, there is one more to come this Saturday. She was on the couch once so that means she has sung to six people. Well worth checking out.

#2 Mama - in Dutch - singing to Samantha (her song)
#3 Qué Se Siente - in Spanish - For Rolf .. his song .. he is a salsa singer

Oh thank you for letting us know. I won't want to miss that.
And as a finishing touch, God created the Dutch. And Floor is what makes our country great again.
On behalf of the States let me just say Thank You for Flor. She is amazing!
Unus Sed Leo From the USA- Thank you!
She's deadly.. wonderful, wonderful stuff man. Always have some tears reserved for Floor.. it just happens.

Thank's God for hear a voice like this

The song is kept really small but her vocal must makes those high-notes with all the power it contains... It's breath-taking. The show is called "Beste zangers van Nederland"
And then there is Floor.............. Thank you!
Floor makes grown men cry. I lover her.
The way you look up to the camera in the beginning is priceless and says it all, thank you.
Here this is the proof that you don't listen to Floor when she sings..NO YOU EXPERIENCE HER!!!. If there is no reaction well then you are already dead and it makes no difference. She does truly stir the soul with her emotional presentation in her songs. You should check out her other songs from this show, before this she did 4 different genres in 4 different languages!! She has stunned this group of professional singers each and every week let along the TV audience that tunes in for this Dutch program.

I cry whenever I hear her do this. 36 year old cowboy from Texas. I ain't scared to admit it
She is amazing and voice touches your soul and often brings the goosebumps and tears and if it doesn't you just have to be dead inside
Thank you for bringing that up. If ya feel it in your soul its only right to let that out. Ain't no shame to appreciate that.

I really hope our pop people are paying attention to this. Being genuine like Floor will get you way more fans than the attitudes a lot of them have.
Really enjoyed this reaction & this is my first time hearing that song, also. Beautiful !
Nice reaction man. Yes this version is really sweet but powerfull at the same time, we just can feel the emotion trough her voice and Floor Jansen just really good to how she interpret every song that she sing so it delivered well.
Me, listening to this a year later, and tearing up all over again.
this show is called (beste zangers) best singers. In the Netherlands she is one of the best performers.
Your reactions are the best. You say what we're all feeling
God damn!
Thanks for putting this up, had never heard her before.
Beautiful 👍
As a Dutch metal fan its amazing to see how much talent Floor has, not to mention how much joy it gives seeing people from all over the world react to it x3.
Emma Heesters Strong from the same show.
Floor wrote the song.
Nice reaction, Jamel! I can relate to it.
She's 6' man, great reaction..
I'm tough, and as soon as I get this speck of dirt that flew in my eye out, I'm going to listen to Meshuggah. In all honesty, this is just amazing. There are no proper words in my vocabulary to describe her voice.
Angel! ❤. Thank You!
The world would be a better place if everyone would watch music with you...thank you for what you do... and again like I said in another video of yours, love the beard!!
Love your reaction and your channel. Always a really good choice of music and other stuff. Greetings from Germany!
Man..... someone must be cutting up some onions near where I am listening to this !!!
Yeah, now you need to check out her other songs from that beste zangers show. You'll get floored. Haha.
I don't normally like videos but my man dropping the encouragement to show your feelings and don't be afraid to cry.. that gets a like.
Its a show where singers sing eachothers songs or songs that mean something to them.
I see "Floor" and/or "Nightwish" and "Reaction" and I just click the video...what a woman! Nice reaction dude!
Reacting to Nightwish/Floor/Jinjer has become this years go to thing.
Here I am again, after 2 years. :) At 5:30 when you think she's wrapping it up and fading out, BAM. She pulls another rabbit out of the hat. 🤩
Watched many of your grunge era vids.. awesome vids.. RIP those guys, glad to see Floor is here, in our date and time
This woman's voice is so heavenly and pure a deaf person could hear her.
I needed a good cry and this pulled it out like guts from a fish....in the shallows.
Jamel , if you want a tought fight against tears , try her song from the same show " About love I don't know a thing" , it's very hard to win !!!
you should also try , from the same show , "the sound of silence" from the opéra singer Henk Poort , it's speechless !!
He was amazing, but the only way to be speechless by his performance is if you did not see David Draiman from disturbed do that same version first. If you haven't seen it, watch that version.

This is a tvshow comes 1 a year. The people on the seats are singers. They perform each other songs in a different way and sing some other songs witch are suitable for them. No prize, just glory. And live too with the best musicians and back-up vocals.
Well said and Ty for reaction!
The show is what you see, musicians singing for other musicians. No competition so there is no winner. Every week one of the musicians is in the headlights, and the others sing one of his/her song. Or a song that is special to them
Dude I got chills. On both my arms and legs.
She is out of this world :] #Underworld
Baptism of the ears is a great phrase. I'm sitting on a train watching this and trying not to tear up.
Well, I'm watching this reaction at 20 past midnight towards the end of April 2020. The world's in lockdown. Things are bleak but we press on. And this voice just lets me escape all the shit that's happening in the world, just for a minute or two. December the 18th of this year I will hopefully be seeing Floor with Nightwish in London. That concert will make me finally realise that everything will be ok. Be safe.
This show is a show in the Netherlands called The Best Singers. It runs for quite some time now and it's a show in wich, per season a group of well known singers singing each others songs. This led to some real pearls like this one here.
Listen to Floor singing "About love I don't know a thing" in the same show. It's her English version of his Dutch song (Ruben, the guy you where talking about). He's letting it all out, and of course Floor is singing another beautiful song.
Dude, you are the best! Floor is from a different planet :)
Her voice hits me at so many levels....
I am glad that i saw your reaction video.. also the one with Henk Poort together.. but i do also hope that you want to do some other songs from the Beste Zangers shows! Because they were truly great and blessed!!
best version of the song ever!
to answer your question how tall Floor is: according to Wikipedia:
1.83 m thats are
6 feet 0.0472 inches
PPfilmemacher ive heard 185cm but you might be right:) However i think that maybee her height gives her the voice she has, more lungs, more power😃👍🏻
Je bent een Nederlander of niet :)
Look at the photos of her next to the rest of Nightwish, and even when subtracting for 3" to 4" heels, she is taller then the tallest member of that band. Tuomos is supposed to be 6'2" - 6' 3" and she towers over him in those photos.
I've worked with a few very tall women and they all try to minimize their height. Floor will often scrunch down in photos to not look taller than the rest of Nightwish. Wanna piss her off? Ask her about her height.
My guess is 6' 3" to 6'4". Check this out - she's taller than Tuomos with his top hat. www.dmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/nightwish.jpg . The most she wears is a 4" heel and on stage, more like 2" to 3".
Been married a very long time and spent way too much time in shoe stores with SWMBO, so ya, I'm really good at figuring out high heels.
@@billattercliffe8655 She was asked during an Instagram live chat and said 183cm, which is just a touch over 6ft. I'm inclined to believe the lady herself. Her sister is actually taller than her. Tuomas is listed at 1.88m, so 6'1 and a half. Aside from Floor crouching for stage photos, likely for the photographer's benefit, she's one of the few tall ladies I've never seen try to shrink herself. She wears 3" heels regularly, and those are bloody uncomfortable lol More power to her.
A lullaby by FLOOR you can go to sleep now no worries 🛌👩🏻🎤❤️
mmmm tasty wasnt it
Floor is amazing in so many genres...hand her a song and let her do her magic with it
Sup Jamal...gotta get this 1 since you liked jinjer- anything by spiritbox, absolutely anything.amazing band.amazing vocalist (Courtney laplante). You'll love it. Gotta get it man. Maybe several.PLEASE
This was fantastic. Jamel...please please give a listen to this....."Jill's Theme" from the movie "Once Upon A Time In the West ". The opening and end songs. Make sure it's the original. Utterly beautiful and beyond words. My favorite song of all time. You won't be sorry.
In this show, the artists either sing each other song or a song that means something for someone in the couch. It is perfect for Floor, since She is so versatile. A metalhead that can sing blues, Pop, jazz, opera, salsa, you name it. If You gave her like few weeks She would be able to sing flamenco.
Goosebumps or/and teary eyes is just a common thing recently 👌😅
I been following Best Zangers for several years. I found the show when the group Ogene was on there
I've already seen people explain "what is this show" so i wont bother with that, but i will add something tiny to it.
If you are a lover of real music, then this is the best tv show you can find, no drama, no competition, just plain and simple in setup, with the single goal being real music and real emotions, a celebrations of the love for music and singing in general.
This is how quality television used to be, this is what we call "slow tv" (yet an episode flies by as if only 5 minutes have passed)
The way this show brings the singers together, gives us these amazing performances.
I'd suggest checking out Denise Hofs translated episodes (full) to get an idea about the show and other singers. (they are all great singers, from different backgrounds and genres, so well worth checking out)
Great reaction man, really enjoyed that :D
