English translation of lyrics. Floor started singing the 5th line.
But now let's do as we do at home
Let's sing our ring dance rhyme
About a fairy known whom
at home we call Vilja!
Once lived a Vilja, a maid of the woods,
And hunter spotted her in rocky outcroppings!
The young boy, who was
Affected curiously by her presense,
He looked and looked
at the wood-maiden.
And a shudder the boy had never known
Took hold of him,
Longingly he began quietly to sigh!
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me
be your dearest true love!
Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
Begs a lovesick man!
The maid of the woods stretched
her hand to him
And pulled him into her rocky home.
The boy nearly lost all his sense
And so she loved him and kissed him as no earthly child.
When she kissed him to his content
She disappeared in an instant!
The hunter waved goodbye only once before she vanished:
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me
be your dearest true love!
Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
Begs a lovesick man!
I loved your reference to Linda Ronstadt, she was my favourite until Floor matched her. Linda is not that often reacted to by knowledgeable vocalists. Would you consider doing some of Linda's songs showing her diversity and from all-out belting (It's so Easy, Different Drum and Get Closer) to very small and intimate (Bleu Bayou, Willing '77 Atlanta and many other songs) and Pirates of Penzance?
@@j_muller I would love to.. Interestingly, I tried to include her singing "You're No Good" live at the Hollywood Bowl in the video above and it was blocked in ALL countries. I'm hesitant now to react to Linda for this reason. Hmm...
@@TheVoiceLoveCo Dr. Marc Reynolds, another very impressive reactor (I'm sure you would love him also, so be warned) - along with you - cuts in this case some parts of the original video. Also he pauses it at least three times and explains what has been seen so far. Normally it works to prevent copyright strikes for educational issues.
Once there lived a Vilja, a maid of the woods,
as a hunter (Yeager/Jagr) was spotting her in a rocky outcropping!
The young man, affected curiously by her presence,
was glancing and glancing towards the wood-maiden.
A never-known shudder took hold of the young hunter,
longingly he began quietly to sigh!
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me be your dearest true love!
Vilja, oh Vilja what are you doing to me?
Is begging a lovesick man!
The maid of the woods was stretching her hand to him
And pulled him into her rocky house.
The lad, nearly had been loosing all of his senses
so is kissing and loving no heavenly kind (child).
After being satisfied with kissing (him), she disappeared in a sudden!
For only one last moment, the pitiful was able to grace her:
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me be your dearest true love!
Vilja, oh Vilja what are you doing to me?
Is begging a lovesick man!
This was from the first episode of this season of the show. Floor was basically unknown to a Dutch audience. She quite literally mic dropped everyone with this performance
He's lit up because this performance was a tribute to him. It's a song that his mother used to sing to him as a kid.
She is not a singer, she is a full body performer, a goddess! Its astonishing she was almost unknown in NL. Great reaction
Unitil 2019, she sang metal. She did not want to sing pop. That is the problem, metal is not popular in NL.
You finally did this performance! This was not only her first performance, but it was the first performance on the entire show. The other people there didn't know what to expect from a metal singer, and boy did they get the shock of their lives!
From what I read, a good part of the Netherlands had no idea who Floor was at the start. That evidently has turned around 180°
@@eTraxx I didn't know who she was. Metal isn't a thing in the Netherlands. Or should I say: wasn't? Every Dutch person now knows who she is. It's the question whether metal gets more attention now. I think so. It has my attention. Ghost Love Score by Nightwish is one of the best songs I ever heard.
@@ariekamstra2329 You also need to check out Epica. They are a Dutch symphonic metal band. Check out Epica - Sancta Terra, (feat Floor Jansen) live Retrospect show. Full live orchestra for this anniversary show.
There are so many metal songs that are quite beautiful.
Are there a bunch that will not be your cup of tea. Sure. But I think you will be surprised how many good ones are out there as well. Like Tool, Perfect Circle, Soundgarden, Deftones, and so many more.
@@ariekamstra2329 not just floor you dutch ppl are blessed by having in my humble opinion 3 of 5 best singers in the world at the moment floor jansen, anneke von giersbergen and simone simons.
Thnx for the response. Wow. There's so much to discover. Epica I already was aware of. Also, should I say of course, Within Temptation.
🤘❤️🎸🎼🎤 Merry X-mas everyone 🎅🌲🎁
I have to admit, I've become obsessed with Floor as well. Must watch all the reaction videos heheh.
This was the very first performance of the season and the show. No one knew what to expect. Every time I watch this, I think of the other singers on the couch watching her and probably thinking, "I have to follow THAT?" It had to be intimidating.
One of the best reaction to Floor singing is when she did her rendition of Rolf Sanchez's Que Se Siente. She made a rocking vesion of his song which was originally a salsa number. He is even more giddiier than Henk which was nice because Henk Poort brought him to tears singing Noelia earliee in that episode.
There are rumours that Rolfs mouth is still open.
It truly is a joy to watch a performer who not only has the skill to nail it, but also has the confidence backed up by the knowledge that they can nail it.
Floor knows, and it shows on her face. She is confident and enjoys her performance.
They better be glad that this was not a competition because she would sing circles around all of them. Instant winner!!!
Great reaction again to another great performance from the Goddess Floor! This was the very first performance on the very first episode. None of the other singers knew Floor, apart from Tim who'd met her years before but even he wasn't aware of what she was truly capable of vocally. You can tell by the shocked looks on all of their faces! Henk is emotional because Floor chose this song to sing for him as his mother (also a soprano opera singer) used to sing this to him when he was a child!
Brian Almeida tough act to follow Floor.
@@sugoruyo She certainly is!!! It's a case of game over lol.
Another vocalist, from the same genre and a good friend of Floor's, is Simone Simmons of Epica, of whom she has performed with singing both symphonic metal and opera. Simone is another vocalist who has mastered multiple genres.
You can analyze all you want, it's perfect and interesting. But when you see Floor sing, whatever she sings, you see joy in her eyes and smile. She's relaxed but she's also having a blast. She's happy to sing.
Floor's Voice 😍💫🔥💗💯🤘
A relaxed stance is pretty much Floor's signature. She doesn't need Henk to teach her that at all. This was the first episode, so she and Henk didn't really know each other yet.
True, In the tv programme they rehearse without the other singers. It is a surprise for all the othes singers. What they going to sing.
Henk didn't know Floor, but Floor was aware of who Henk was and she was a fan of his.
@@003geclipse I know. I'm speaking in response to Christi saying he probably coached her. Fact is, she's just well trained, disciplined and hard working on all aspects of technique.
Henk was looking pleased because Floor sang this for him. Henk's mother used to sing this to him as a child. henk sang Sound of Silence for Floor. Floor's father used to listen to Simon & Garfunkel's version when she was a child. Great reaction video! Hope Santa gives you everything you desire!
Great reacton again, thank you very much.
Another female singer who can navigate between different styles is Simone Simons. She is singer of the dutch symphonic metalband Epica. Epica actually was formed after Mark Jansen (no relatives to Floor) left Floor's first band After Forever. Simone became singer and is very good friends with Floor, in fact Simone had singinglessons from Floor.
I would recommend you to listen to Sancta Terra, live from the Retrospectshow, in Eindhoven, Netherlands. In this song Floor is guest and you can hear both singers change from breast to headvoice in one breath and go back in one breath.
In this Retrospect show, you can also see the orchestra, that Epica did de original recording with. Usually the orchestral parts are prerecorded, but in this show they were also live. Sancta Terra was played at the end of the show and a good listener can hear that Simone is getting a bit out of breath, but also keep in mind that she was 3 or 4 months pregnant at this performance.
Enjoy this one.

Have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year!
Greetings Dolf
Floor is the best!! 😍
Beste Zangers showcased her astounding vocal versatility. No disrespect to the rest of the cast, but most of them had little variance in their vocal abilities. Floor, and Henk, are world class vocal artists, and masters of their craft.
In the song Wildcard by Floor's former band ReVamp, in the performance at the Bloodstock festival 2014, she belts, sings classical and segues directly from that into a death metal growl. Perhaps you might want to react to that?
Rock and classic harmonize very well. When done properly. And Floor does not do it properly, no she nails it all the way. This is great and makes me very very happy.
Your smile can surely brighten a day! :D
(so can Floor!)
To see how truly versatile Floor is you need to see Nightwish - Yours is an Empty Hope
I am so glad you brought Linda Ronstadt up. Floor reminds me a lot of Linda, where she is going to do what she wants to do not necessarily what people think she should do. This performance was fun because the others had no idea what she could do and she sang in German, her next performance, mama, was in Dutch, then she sang in Spanish, before then singing in English, not many singers I know can sing in 4 different languages! And her range is amazing! Love you fangirling over her too :)
You´d very good commended & analysed this song as an AMERICAN voice coach? And you commend a Netherlands-folk-song? OMG! I´m German near by Netherlands but I understand not one word she´s singing too ^^ ;-) But Floor is really a very great singer over diverse music-genre and (I think so...) a very eloquent and intelligent person.
But: Ah, o.k. your voice sounds very professional too and sounds great and very nice too!!!
I am amazed about your cross-genre music spectrum in your videos! You are open for an incredibly broad musical influences - thank you for that flexibility.
And your fun and smiles keep viewers interested in sticking to your videos and lessons.
(P.S.: I do not have a clue of it, because I´ m only an old German guy, unrelated to what's going on with analytic prof. music :-) Go straight ahead and thumbs up! All compliments and greetings from Berlin / Germany
Henk and Floor are currently appearing on Dutch TV and radio shows and will perform together during a sold out 10 performance mini-tour before Nightwish begins their 2020 tour. It is my understanding that the complete tour sold out within 48 hours, so they have now added an 11th show. Henk will also perform with Nightwish during at least one of their concerts.
I love that Floor was a huge Hank Port fan growing up. Now Hank is a huge Floor fan and they are very close friends.
I love your reactions to Floor!
I cant beleive what this womans voice does to me she is just wonderfull great reaction and yes love Floor too :-)
Love your reactions!!! If you want to hear more of Floors diversity in vocals, check out "Yours Is An Empty Hope". Floor does the whole chorus in death growls there! Also, you could check out "Que Se Siente" from Beste Zangers (Floor is singing in Spanish)
i literally watch behind the scenes stuff on floor and nightwish in their language and dont understand a word yet im still paying attention
Henk Poort, the Opera singer is an Idol to Floor. He is a Baritone but can easily sing Tenor and some high notes
Floor's versatility is what fascinates me the most, especially that she can switch between extremes within the same song, like on "Wildcard", from her previous band ReVamp, where she goes from opera to extreme metal within a few breaths of each other.
This "classically trained" label has become a bit of an overused promotional buzzword that does not always mean the same thing When I think of classic training, I think of studying and graduating from a conservatory. Floor studied for 4 years at Dutch Rock Academy, an all-round music and music business education for pop and rock musicians, apparent equivalent of BA in Music. While at Rock Academy, there was a guest lecturer from conservatory, which inspired her to take some conservatory classes, part-time. Also part-time she studied musical theater. All of this she was doing in parallel with her growing career with After Forever, so she had the applied side down. This is great training and experience, but is it really "classical"?
Floor did this interview a just before she joined Nightwish, and among other things, she talks about her education and her early vocal influences. Thought you may find it interesting - crypticrock.com/interview-floor-jansen-of-revamp-nightwish/
This was the very first performance of the first episode of Best Zangers with this cast. No one new Floor because Nightwish is Finnish, and also, the metal scene out in the Netherlands isn't as huge as it is on Finland either. No one in that room knew who Floor was and didn't really expect her voice since she's known for metal music.
Floor was fan girling when she found out that Poort was going to be there as well. If you have time you should watch the show in order, they others are really great as well. Not only that but there's stories behind everything that the others sing for. You should definitely check that out on your own time. I think you'll enjoy it. There's a series on UA-cam from someone that translated the entire season of that show in to English, and did a wonderful job.
Hermosa canción, una voz impresionante.... Saludos desde Argentina.
Hi Christi. Great reaction like always. I would also like to hint that this performance was actually the first one on the first episode of this year's Beste Zangers. Guys knew that Floor is a metal singer, but they didn't expect that this 6'1''' chick would sing the opera like a champ. And their reactions here reflect that.
We all agree - Floor is exceptional. I adore hearing qualified voice coaches react to her because you can TELL they know... they really know... Like YOU! Thanks for another Floor review! My favorite vocalist:)
Even as a German it is difficult to understand what she sings (voices in opera singing are generally difficult to understand for inexperienced ears)
i love your reactions and hope you keep doing it
Greetings from germany
I think this was the song she sang for Henke, his night for everyone to sing to him, so I am sure he was impressed with her Representation.
"Captivating" is the absolute on point description here! She. Is. Fantastic!!! And, yeah, I don't speak German but I was absolutely glued. Her vocals, yum! At this point I don't think there is anything she CANNOT do vocally. Fabtabulous! This really fits the definition of entertainment. Your delight is pretty fun, too! Great reaction and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I'm german and I assure you we also understand nothing more than three words at best.
@@wonderfalg how come? Was her German so bad or is the original archaic?
@@AnnieNYC1 I'm no expert of Floor Jansen. But when you listen the original arrangement you'll see it is far slower in tempo. Maybe it was too fast for her to sing in proper german or she hadn't enough time to train the word expression. I guess it's a combination of both. Love this version nevertheless. I got the emotion. This is what counts.
The coolest thing was this was the first song performed out of the gate. Floor slayed it and set the stage for all of her amazing performances to come.
Great reaction, and congratulations on 22,000!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🦊🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻
It's funny that you mentioned Linda Ronstadt. Check out Floor singing "I Don't Know a Thing About Love", also from Beste Zangers. I had a big Linda Ronstadt vibe listening to Floor sing it.
Hello Christi - like every time I can only praise you again for the quality of your reaction.
To the appearance of Floor - it was her first during this event - the ice was noticeably present before. She was treated a little bit estimating, so after the motto: What is this metalhead looking for here... - But she was already able to break the ice with her wonderful performance and convince the other participants that she is able to keep up under all circumstances.
As noted under one of your previous contributions to this show, each of her performances actually deserves a reaction video - she shows a different facet of her diamond at each of her performances. Yes - in my eyes she is a diamond, a gift to humanity and at the moment one of the best singers on this planet, solar system, universe... btw - did you actually notice how she always collects herself in the transitions between the rock and classical parts? -- You can really see it in her eyes, the way she concentrates...
Great reaction video. :) Nice noticing also the other performers' reactions. It was the very first time they heard Floor singing, and they all got floored big time. :)
Beste zangers Que se seinte , is in spanish and Winner are amazing aswell .. love her
Hello Christie and a most beloved happy holiday to you and yours from me and mine!
Floor is great and versatile. Always a treat when you feature her.
Another vocalist that I think I recommended to you awhile back is also versatile, she goes by her first name EIVOR .
She has a unique voice and when she sings with her band , she ( they) sound a bit like symphonic metal. She can do Opera, too. And Pop. But the song I would like you to react to when the opportunity presents itself is from the Faroe island ( her native domicile )and when she gives a performance virtually the whole island of about 600 show up. She has an angelic voice so unique , so mystical , so magical, so entrancing so hauntingly beautiful :
“Eivor trollabundin” ( first vid 5:44 duration). ( from the Faroe Islands and trollabundin meaning ‘spellbound’ and all who watch this amazing.video in her native language will be spellbound.). Wish I was there outdoors sitting with the audience. The island’s backdrop scenery of mountains and rivers are interspersed and breathtakingly beautiful and I wish I could have booked a plane and been there sitting among those lucky island fans.
And here are 2 with her band at full force and emotionally impactful remarkable live performances:
~
“Eivor Wake me Up” ( 7: 11 duration) it’s in English and she kills it with celestial high notes and emotional impact. It’s about her longing to wake up from this earthy dream and reunite with a lover that left her and she longs to return
to a place lit by heartfelt memories
( and oh boy does her voice scale the ethereal heights). This vocalist has already become one of my favorite female vocalists. And I just discovered her about 6 months ago. How on God’s earth did i ever overlook this world class vocalist. Watch the drummer go crazzzyyy.
~
Eivor “falling free” again in English ( the one that’s 6:47 duration. It’s on the island but inside I believe a restaurant seating capacity ( when the camera panned the audience) probably 300 lucky souls to witnessed this beyond amazing performance. She put it on UA-cam about 3 years ago and very few views and likes. If she performed it in America and there were 50,000 in attendance , all 50,000 would be screaming and yelling for a long time during and after the performance.
The strobe lightening, camera angles, her otherworldly vocal all combine to make this rendition memorable. At the end she sustains a phrase that is heavenly.
Now for “ Lord Of The Rings” fans:
UA-cam “Evior may it be “ ( Lord of the Rings) in a palatial setting in front of thousands with full orchestra and the Queen of Denmark!! ( at the end of this amazing performance the camera pans to the balcony and the Queen Of Denmark clapping. Incredible, mystical, celestial , will transport you to a higher realm).
Again, the happiest of holiday greetings.
All love and (((hugs)))
Al
Thank you Christi for another awesome reaction !! I really love the expressions of your face while you're listening to Floor...!!! Priceless !!! By the way that was the first song of the Beste Zangers 2019. I believe that is Floor's personal style to sing opera, because she and Henk didn't really know each other at the time..!! 😊
Dplf Vink speaks the truth about the performance mentioned in his comment. Also a good tip for you is follow Denise Hofs here on youtube. She translated all the Zangers in english and continues to post Floor videos as they come out. I watched Floor and Henk perform Phantom of the Opera at some function and her and Tim do Winner at a sports award ceremony. I would never have known without Denise. She is awesome. As are you and another brilliant episode. Till next time.......
Dolf Vink I meant.
Best reaction ever 👌💜🤘🎤🎻🤗🙏🏼
If you haven't checked yet, Samantha singing in BZ show "Our Decades in the Sun" in Dutch and Emma singing Floor's own song "Strong" are great too 🤗
Just watched the version where she performed in Henks show. I had to watch this one again with Christie.
The Voice Love Co., You're my favourite vocal coach . You're intelligent, beautiful , you're soul is clear. You're attractive . Wonderful woman .
You said basically the same thing Tim Akkerman did on the show. He was blown away by the performance, even though it was in German so he didn't understand a word (he used stronger language)..
Wow... ...your honesty..! Thank you for a great reaction. I totally agree with you. Best wishes from Norway..!
Great soprano voice, great arrangement...love it...but another detail is how beautiful you are, simpatic , simple, the most sweet voice teacher and reactor that I am suscribed.
If you wanna know about this show, you should look at the: Jenniezelf version, because the have the whole show with eng. subs. Then you know what the show is about and why they sing the songs they sing. Have fun!
Confidence, power and grace...
Great reaction. I hope you eventually do a reaction to Nightwish - Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean live from Buenos Aires. It's a great song for showing some of the newer things that Floor can do, particulary switching rapidly between different vocal configurations multiple times in a single verse. It"s really neat.
My Queen Goddess Floorever!
I know this is an older video but you have to watch Floor do " Monolith of Doubt " from her first band After Foever .
And BTW im loving your reactions
If you like classically trained performers on the Beste Zangers show, take a look at Tania Kross (Barcelona, Margherita, The Power of Love) or Maria Fiselier (Lose Yourself, La Mer, Il Mondo) from earlier seasons, and Henk Poort (Noelia, Vivo Per Lei, Sound of Silence) from this season.
try to see Hank reaction on Floor rendition of "Winner" song from same show :)
You're in for a treat, in Beste Zangers Floor goes more pop on a great Spanish song & really nails a rock ballad (Winner). Realised this time that I don't care for the Vilja Lied but, thanks to you, I did clock that Floor's singing is exquisite, on point.
Hey, great reaction, as always ! Henk is so emotional because this song was sung to him when he was a little boy by his mom, who was also an opera singer, hence his lit up face.....
Floor started her training in classical song but was soon claimed by rock/metal. I think she’s mentioned she didn’t like the amount of constraints on style and expression usually associated with being an opera singer. However, Floor being an extremely intelligent individual and dedicated to being the best singer she can be, she could see the value receiving training in the technique.
Hi, it is the other way around, she was one of the first students of the first rockacademie in the Netherlands, while she was already performing in her first metal band After Forever, for which she also wrote the material. She didn't find what she was looking for vocally at that academie until she was in a masterclass from a musical arts/opera vocal teacher. She did her classical training after and hasn't stopped training her voice, she calls herself a "voice-geek" interested in different techniques.
@The Voice Love Co: singing with distortion was the first time Henk ever did (for Floor) and at the show was the first time he and Floor met.
Btw, I love the love many of the voice coaches like you have for the Beste Zangers , although I must admit that I also started watching the show when I knew Floor was going to be in it. And boy, did she make a difference, I have been watching old episodes as well. I'd like to recommend Tania Kross and Tommie Christiaans, Barcelona.
Martine Hermans I always it was the other round. Live and learn I guess.
Christie, did you notice how the colour cast of you video keeps changing? Your camera is obviously set to auto white balance (AWB). Since you have mixed lighting (appears to be a combination of tungsten and window light) your camera keeps flipping back and forth as it tries to determine the correct white balance. You need to set the camera to a fixed white balance to keep it from flipping back and forth.
BTW, Floor is always relaxed in her singing and she coached Henk in how to use distortion. :)
Love you xxx
Great reaction thank you. one in the comments. say . look at her former band Revamp, the song wildcard, one second from operatic to deep growls Merry christmas 😘
Love your reaction. She is an amazing singer and this BZ show I found an other amazing rendition together with her also amazing friend Simone. Sabat mater Dolorosa from Epica. Please react on this song, because this is amazing!
I've said it before and I'll say again , any artist can be queens and kings or even goddesses but there will be only one Valkyrie Goddess
Me encantan tus vídeos y coincido mucho con tus opiniones, Saludos desde Tijuana México.
I LOVE everything about your videos, both your genuine reactions and the deconstruction of the performances
I think floor is the ultimate symphonic metal singer
Great reaction again!! I'm so glad you keep on fangirling over her and explaining more about what makes her so special in the process. Que Se Siente next?😁
love all your reactions concerning Floor performances , with your beautiful smile and beautiful eyes , keep going you're my favorite voice coach doing reactions that i follow in youtube
Thank you for your fantastic reaction :)
Hello Christi. Love your reactions. You're talking about Floor singing so releaxed; check out her version of Oh Holy Night in Finnish. The title is "oi jouluyö". You can find several video's but personally I think the video that shows Floor being pregnant is the most impressive. Kind regards from The Netherlands
You always brighten my day with.. everything!
If you really want to see something special ... Floor and Marko do Ave Maria. Floor also sings a Puccini aria solo and also duets with Simone Simmons in Stabat Mater Dolarosa.
another great reaction, Merry Christmas
When I heard Floor on stage for the first time 9 years ago, it was immediately clear to me that I would never reach this level. But something else became clear to me, hard work pays off if you do it with joy and passion.
Fantastic reaction as ever Christi, always love your smile and positivity. May I recommend “HELVEGEN” by Wardruna and Aurora. Very spiritual and 2 great voices.
next, THE GREATESH SHOW ON EARTH 🙏🙏🙏🙏 floorrrr💃💃💃💃
After watching most of your reactions on Floor/Nightwish... We're all looking forward to watching you react to Que Se Siente, from the Beste Zangers show :p
Or maybe I don't know a thing about love ? :)
Keep 'em coming !
The most versatile? You should watch Maria Fiselier in Beste Zangers 2018. She is an opera singer who rapped in the series. She studied the rap as if it was an opera song. And sings P.Y.T. of Micheal Jackson.
💖
What do you think about the Epica front Lady Simone Simmons (friend of Floor), Anneke van Giersbergen or Dianne van Giersbergen. Imo they all that versatile and able to handle all kind of music. But the most important of all, they love singing first.
This piece is usually sung far too seriously by opera singers. The merry widow is telling a naughty story, after all.
There is another that sings metal or opera, Eric Adams, probably the best and most influential american singer you never heard. Try these UA-cam videos Manowar Best Crowd Ever (metal anthem Heart of Steel live) and Manowar - Nessun Dorma - HQ (there's a lovely version live at gods of metal, but the audio is poor).
Also check out André Matos, Shaman Fairy Tale live to see a master metal singer, a classically trained pianist and a master composer all in one.
And there's Tarja Turunen, the original Nightwish singer, better opera singer than Floor, not quite as versatile.
Finally, Tim Akkerman got to Henk as much as Floor with his Breng hem thuis.
Eric Adams. Best Singer on the Planet.
@@l.waldberg6803 Hail Manowarriors, hail!
Listen to "Que Se Siente" and "About Love I Don't Know A Thing" next!
There's more of Floor that you haven't seen yet. xD
Christi I know you're fangirling at this moment Hehe but being impartial in a contest Floor Jansen VS Monica Naranjo (I know their styles are totally different), who would win say you?
Yes. Flawless Floor 🤣
Linda Ronstadt is such a great comparison.
WHERE CAN I HEAR YOU SING!!!
In the Christmas spirit, from Finland the 'Heavy Christmas' show where rock and metal bands do holiday music. Here is Floor Jansen doing 'Oh Holy Night' in Finnish - ua-cam.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/v-deo.html
Translated Lyrics.
But now let's do as we do at home
Let's sing our ring dance rhyme
About a fairy known whom
at home, we call Vilja!
Once lived a Vilja, a maid of the woods,
And hunter spotted her in rocky outcroppings!
The young boy, who was
Affected curiously by her presence,
He looked and looked
at the wood-maiden.
And a shudder the boy had never known
Took hold of him,
Longingly he began quietly to sigh!
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me
be your dearest true love!
Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
Begs a lovesick man!
The maid of the woods stretched
her hand to him
And pulled him into her rocky home.
The boy nearly lost all his sense
And so she loved him and kissed him as no earthly child.
When she kissed him to his content
She disappeared in an instant!
The hunter waved goodbye only once before she vanished:
Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
Take me and let me
be your dearest true love!
Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
Begs a lovesick man!

Maybe it's about time to redefine 'flawless' to 'Floorless'...
Eargasm has changed to floorgasm. So, why not?
What the Henk?
I still have floorless floorgasms.
Mmmmmm
@@wonderfalg I mean, Floor is a Goddess so she floats anyway. We only need the floor she gives us. :)
Floorful would be better, wouldn’t it?
