Wait untill you see Floor singing O Holey Night in finnish in 2016 !!! 😎ask your moderaters to look for the most "telling" video of that performance.
Hey BBS I thought Floor is a "dramatic Coloratura" ?

NIGHTWISH - Shoemaker (Official Lyric Video): ua-cam.com/video/Rjp_DfvJimg/v-deo.html * the ending is the gold***
@@nicod1361 Fach is pretty flexible... There is very little difference between dramatic coloratura and lyric dramatic. It's situational and relates more to the notes of the piece than anything else
@@BigBrainSinger excellent !
@@nicod1361 If you're enjoying your journey through Symphonic metal and the amazing ladies who are lead vocals, please react to Seven Spires - Cabaret of Dreams. The lead singer is amazing in her own right, and while she is in a similar vein of Epica and Nightwish, she has a very unique quality to her voice I think you'd find surprisingly awesome. Great reactions! I love watching people discover Nightwish, Epica, and other amazing metal bands.
This song is at the 2.5 hour mark in a 3 hour concert. For Simone to still have that quality of singing is a testament to her skill.
The Netherlands has so many awesome singers and Simone is another of our metal queens. Check Epica, you'll be amazed!

You want more operatic/opera from Floor and Simone, Stabat mater Dolorosa from the same Show.it is awesome 😊 or what you say, O mio bambbino caro from Floor 🥰🥰🥰
Yep: ua-cam.com/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/v-deo.html
Floor and Simone know each other very well, Simone once said that Floor was more at her house at that time than at her own. Floor is a sopano, Simone is more mezzo soprano.. but.. in Stabat Mater Dolorosa at this same concert Simone has the higher soprano part and Floor the messo (because the soprano part is the focal point, and it was Epica's concert of course).
Floor is always delivering so she ever positioning herself in the supporting role. Great person and so kind, I love her personality.
If I am right, Simone is a lyric-soprano. But for sure I truly love Simone's christal clear angelic voice.
So much respect to Simone who was also pregnant that period!! As for Floor, she is just having fun with her best friend, it's so easy for her like eating pancakes... Millions of lightyears far from any other vocalist. Yes, she is a Jedi, and the Force is extremely strong in her.
Take a look at Floor singing o holy night in Finnish 6 months pregnant, she’s amazing..
Here you are: ua-cam.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/v-deo.html
She is indeed amazing.
It’s beautiful!
@@Donna-C Wrong you are not. :-)
@@572Btriode Every time I think I can't possibly be more impressed with Floor than I already am, she goes, "Hold my beer".
She's certainly very visibly pregnant in that video, which is RIDICULOUS. Singing like that while that far gone... it's a tall order.
She must have been training her socks off, body and voice, every day throughout her pregnancy. It's the only answer. Incredible. She's really not kidding when she says she's a major perfectionist!
@@hazelangus if ‘music in the womb’ effects development ...
Check "Stabat Mater Dolorosa" from the same concert to see the two of them performing a classical piece!
Floor and Simone have also done a duet on Stabat Mater Dolorosa .
THIS is something I need to hear.......
@@BigBrainSinger It's so nice to see 9000 metalheads being absolutely silent at a vocals-only classical piece 😜🤘
@@impugnu7852 i love it!
@@BigBrainSinger Yes, it is
Floor and BFF Simone were flatmates at one point in their careers. One or perhaps two of the Epica band members were also with Floor's first band, After Forever.
They were never flatmates.
Thank you for honoring those who deserve it.
Not everyone can appreciate metal, you have to have an ear and above all sensitivity ...
Welcome to this new journey ... I doubt you leave the same ...
or hearing the same ...
If you listen to Floor before and after she had Freyja, you can hear a big change in her voice, too.
Personally I love the chemistry they exhibit in this. And it's of course to be expected when you learn they were roommates during school, but it adds an x factor of personality to the stage presence.
LMAO if you bothered to check those "facts" that people leave under YT videos you'd learn that they weren't roommates and they didn't go to school together. They did share the same vocal coach though.
"I missed so many opportunities to see this kind of music." I'm glad you see it now. Thank you.
There another duet called Stabat Mater.
Both singers sang on several Ayreon albums. Floor also sang in the Ayreon Universe Live concert. Simone sang in The electric castle live and other tales live concert. Simone is also one of the main singers on the latest Ayreon album called Transitus.
As a starter for Ayreon, listen to The day that the world brakes down. Floor’s in it.
Warning. Ayreon is another rabbit hole such as Nightwish is.
Floor and Simone both trained under the same vocal coach, Amanda Somerville, and it really shows...
He should probably check out some Amanda Somerville's live stuff with Exit Eden, where she's visibly pregnant with twins, and still absolutely knocking it out of the park. (Its just a shame that the uploaded versions have had a bit too much re-recording of some of the other singers on it).
Both of these lady’s has finished a good music education.
This aint true lol. Thats a rumour you people just keep spreading. They have never got lessons from Amanda.
" I wish I had discovered this sooner ..." I COMPLETELY understand the feeling, but you know what? It is NEVER too late too discover beutiful music! All you have to do is keep your mind and ears open to it!
I can't wait for Nightwish to do a concert with a symphony and choir eventually! I will absolutely fly to Finland from the states for it!
Floor deserve it. But I thing it’s typical Dutch, Within Temptation, Epica and many other musicians.
Floor was on a Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers where singers sing each others songs or songs important to the other singers. In the first programme the Dutch Opera singer Henk Poort was the center of attention. Floor sang the first song and she sang the Aria Vilja Lied for him. Floor was virtually unknown in the Netherlands (other that the metal world) and only one of the other singers knew her. The astonishment and awe at the quality of her voice is something to behold. A UA-cam user called jenniezelf has all Floors songs with the chat before and after the songs with English subtitles. Well worth the listen.
Ayreon has a song called Valley of the Queens featuring Floor and two other metal queens. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have heard. I recommend it highly.
I did see a comment that said Floors mike was turned down slightly so as to not overpower Simone, whether true or not I have no idea.
Floor recently put a video out on her UA-cam channel about breath control and how to learn it,. and it's really informative and neat to watch. Even if you don't react to it in a video, I think you'd find it interesting to watch if nothing else. She was a vocal coach for several years, and I've heard through the Nightwish Grapevine she even coached Dimash (can't confirm, but would not surprise me).
It was British Airways who used the "Flower Duet" in their ads, quite a while ago now.
Floor is also called a Voice Chameleon. It's not me saying this but other experienced musicians.
You should do, the Vilja Lied ( beste Zangers) or Oh mio babbino caro.
You want brightness..Shoemaker.
She is a Voice Squid. Chameleons take ages to change colour and do not have that many colours to begin with:p
They have had time to practice it together, song came out 2007 and first one of many with Floor in YT is from 2010.
Epica has used this as "guest song" a lot, there have been soprano Manuela Kraller (ex Xandria, Alanae) with Marcela Bovio and Marcela + Laura Macri (both currently from Epica`s sister band MaYaN)
Hi!
I suggest you:
Tarja - Supremacy (live Woodstock)
Tarja - The Reign
Tarja - The Undertaker (live in Milan)
Tarja - Slaying the Dreamer (The End of an Era DVD)
Tarja - Ghost Love Score (live)
Tarja - Victim of Ritual
What a voiiceeeee!!
Especially for this 10th anniversary Retrospect concert the Epica has invited the 70-piece symphonic Hungarian Extended Remenyi Ede Chamber Orchestra and the Choir of Miskolc National Theatre. Because of the great demand by international fans, Epica announced a live stream, called the Retrostream, on March 4, 2013.
The one you hear should out Floor’s name was Mark Jansen. Mark and Floor are both former band members of After Forever. Mark is no relative of Floor but coincidentally carrying the same surename (Jansen/Janssen/Janssens is a very common name in the Netherlands, in the past meaning you were a son/daughter of Jan/Jans)
B B S.....They are good buds....Went to music school together as youngsters.....This was an anniversary concert for Epica. When you see the S shaped mic stand, you know Simone is there.
You might be ready for Ayreon. Both Flooor and Simone and so many other best of the best make appearances there.
Before you know it you'll be listening to the Bards song and it will all make sense.
Now, Stabat Mater Dolorosa, same show.... and many more. One of the best live Shows ever...
You can check Chasing the Dragon, Design your Universe or Unleashed from that same concert. Retrospect live
Small country big show and plenty of talent !!! greetings from The Netherlands.
3:45 - Not trained. but even I said whoa
3:58 - Cool story about listening. I am a live sound guy. One night the power went out in our venue while band was on stage. The band just put down their electrics, picked up their acoustics, the audience shut up, turned on their cell phone lights, the band coalesced into the light and did a set with no lights and no PA in a 1200 seat room and everyone could hear perfectly. I love music so loud it hurts. But, I can appreciate how much you can hear if the audience just SHUTS THE FUCK UP!
Symphony and Metal are like chocolate and peanut butter.
Mark Jansen from Epica played in After Forever with Floor Jansen (No relation)
They are amazing together those 2 - Europe's finest
👍 🤘 🤘
Try a bit of Ayeron next. Everybody dies, Age of shadows, Intergalactic Space Crusaders.
I think Ayeron - The day the Worlds breaks down is a better way to introduce him to Ayeron, eventhough the songs you have mentioned are amazing.
@@argantyr5154 If being introduced to symphonic metal blew his mind already, he's in for a treat. I've been a metalhead for most of my life and Ayreon absolutely slayed me. Hell, I KNOW Ayreon and I still can't believe it every time I listen to an Ayreon song.
We have some Ayreon coming up soon!
I was waiting for the reaction to the male choral voices coming in as an antiphon under the female choir's runs. I wasn't disappointed.
We could tell you loved this!
Amazing performance by everyone!
It’s not everyday you get to perform with an opera, a choir, a metal band - Epica’s 10th anniversary show had one with the lot!
So many talented people came together to make this happen.
The chemistry / friendship between Floor & Simone shines through and makes this song phenomenal!
(Note - As Floor has a stronger / louder singing voice than Simone, comments elsewhere mentioned that Floor’s microphone volume was lowered to be a “balanced sound” of them both).
Because of Floor And Nightwish!
Epica is an awesome band
You should react to:
The obsessive devotion
(Retrospect10th anniversary)
The thing that strikes me about this is how they blend together so perfectly. We know they are very good friends, of course. But even that aside, they are consummate professionals and make space for each other. There is absolutely zero ego here; it's just two singers having a ton of fun and celebrating each other. It's a beautiful thing to see! Edit: Oh, you don't like 12 year olds singing O Mio Babbino Caro? B-but it's a totally appropriate song for a child to sing... if nobody understands Italian 🤣🤣🤣
Damn ....Floors windmill is like WTF!!!! free energy for the whole planet!
I was waiting for your face when they did that little harmony phrase... Did not disappoint.
Retrospect show is still THE best live show I ever seen. Around 4000 spectators at the Klokgebouw in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
yaaasss i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought of the flower duet while watching this!
Zena the goddess and Red Sonja. two valkeries on this world. pure awesomeness
Hey Charlie! I was first turned on to Symphonic Metal in 1999 by Metallica when they worked with Michael Kamen and the SF Symphony. I was a fan but became a superfan when they blew my mind with new arrangements of their music. It's like having a hot fudge sundae and thinking it can't get any better and then someone sprinkles the whipped cream with crushed almonds. I spent years looking for a symphonic metal band having fallen in love with the mix of metal and "opera". The first time I saw Nightwish was with Floor, Ghost Love Score. Within a week I'd listened to their entire Floor catalog and watched the documentary "Please learn the playlist in 48 hours". I've gone back and listened to Tarja and Annette. For most songs I prefer Floor's version, however, I do love Tarja's live version of Nemo and Annette's studio version of Amaranth. It seems like Annette's live versions get drowned out by the band. I'm sure she's a wonderful pop singer, however, Floor and Tarja seem to have the ability to project that power you were talking about at unbelievable registers while the lyrics don't get lost in the music. Both Floor and Tarja did a duet on "Over the Hills" live and it was amazing. You can definitely do comparisons as each has so much control over their vocals, but I love Floor as she seems to sing in the moment. I haven't seen any performance done by her that looks like it was "called in" meaning she's done it 100 times and "Oh Well" here's a 101. She gives her all and if you watch Beste Zanger's you will see how truly diverse her vocal stylings are. I would say she's one in a million, but as a vocal coach, I'm sure you know that already.
Someone tells him to check also Delain (especially The Gathering which is done with Marco Hietala)
Geez this was SUCH a good reaction.... dUDE!!!!! This song, though, is like the ANTHEM OF HUMANKIND! It is also the quintessential example of what Symphonic Metal should be... SO SICK indeed!
Loved every minute!
Best wishes from Namibia 🤟🏻🇳🇦🤟🏻
The live orchestra and choir is really awesome in this, you do not get that often.
If you are interested in hearing Floor performing while 7 month pregnant you should react to "Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö - Floor Jansen".
It's a metal version of the Christmas song "O Holy Night".
Simone Simons the female front vocalist from Epica was several months pregnant.
Have you ever heard of Ayreon? (=Arjen Lucassen himself) ‘The Day That The World Breaks Down’ ‘The Source’ ua-cam.com/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/v-deo.html
Talking about pregnancy, when Floor was 6 months pregnant in December 2016 she sung ‘Oi Jouluyö’ (O Christmas Night) live beautifully ua-cam.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/v-deo.html After giving birth to her daughter Freja she did the same song again in 2019, so if you’re wanting to discover differences between those two to prove that statement here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/6asFfKqE2vg/v-deo.html
Other great female vocalist you will like to watch you :
- Marcela Bovio (from Mexico but mainly operating in the Netherlands)
- Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation)
- Charlotte Wessels (Delain)
- Dianne van Giersbergen (Ex Libris)
- Anneke van Giersbergen (The Gathering)
I saw that Ayreon got muted on Twitch. I hope you upload that to youtube. If you get trouble with Ayreon getting blocked on youtube you can contact Arjen himself and he can help get the video back. He's done that for other channels. He supports people reacting to his stuff and he emails with fans all the time.
This is great to know! Thank you!
The advert you refer to, using an adaptation of the Flower Duet from Lakmé, was in an award-winning British Airways' advert (usually referred to as the 'Face' advert) from 1989, directed by Chariots of Fire director, Hugh Hudson.
Should try devil and the deep dark ocean!
Ooooooo, yes please !
seconded. Think, mini-opera.
Thank for this reaction. Did somebody already request Floor Jansen and Henk Poort performing Phantom of the opera?
As an ex- teacher the Dutch Rock education is on a different level... There are rock colleges here and pop colleges too... On the same level as classical music... Floor is a product from this education... That is the secret
From this same concert, a pure operatic piece along with the orchestra, Simone and Floor singing Stabat Mater Dolorosa, the audience of metalheads loved it!:
EPICA - Stabat Mater Dolorosa w/Floor Jansen (Retrospect 10th Anniversary DVD I)
Greetings from The Netherlands, (one of the)home(s) of metal queens 😜😍🐱👤 By the way they alsoo sing "Stabath Mater Dolorosa" at the same veneu 👀🐱👤🎶That was because you mentioned that "Flower Duet" and the name Floor in Dutch comes from Flora 🌹
I'm half Dutch and PROUD of it!
@@BigBrainSinger 👍👌
@@BigBrainSinger Welkom aan boord broer!
if floor and simone do the duet of flowers, i'm ready to die, my life will be fulfilled
lyrics
A place which I have searched a thousand times
To finally free myself
Forever wasn't ever long enough
I will refrain
I feel a passion washing over me
To shed the skin I'm in
This evolution will empower me
Now truth begins
And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I'm where I want to be
It's a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you'll see I'm right
It's a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It's a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It's a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see
Take one step closer to the borderline
Where night and day unite
This mortal coil I've gone and left behind
On holy soil
And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I'm where I want to be
It's a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you'll see I'm right
It's a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It's a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It's a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see
You will not find me
I am safe in here
I am where I want to be
So leave me now in peace
And you will not find me
I am safe in here
I'm where I want to be!
It's a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you'll see I'm right
It's a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It's a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It's a force that was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see
It's a place where a wish will be granted
Come, you'll see I'm right
It's a force that will live on within you
Dark as day is light
It's a place where your dreams will be slanted
And will always be
It's a force was sent out to win you
Just you wait and see
Did you notice the shape of the microphone standard? S like Simone
Imagine that chorus being played in Avengers Endgame during the last battle against Thanos when the MCU ladies storm forward 😆
BRUH
Then we would have a cool song in a shit movie
One of my favorite Epica live performances:
Epica - Unchain Utopia (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO)
The thing on all of these, nightwish, this - the visuals definitely add to the sound experience.
This whole concert was amazing. Can you imagine This level of production for this genre of music ever happening in North America? This isn't even the first time Epica produced a show with full orchestra and choir. But Americans don't appreciate this type of music enough. Such a pity
I do, Ian... I do 🥺
Man I got the same reaction to the part that almost sounds like the Flower Duet!
Check out all of Floor's songs from the 'Beste Zangers' (best singers) TV show.
Making our way through!
The flower duet with these two would be awsome!
Id pay big bucks
good to see you discovered another of our dutch ladies of metal =) a few others left to discover. have fun on your journey
They're both amazing! Someone said you can't compare floor to anyone, but I disagree. This is a POWERHOUSE Duo.
@@BigBrainSinger The reason people say that has nothing to do with opera singing, but you're early in your Floor/Nightwish journey right now and will almost certainly change your opinion on that later down the road. 😉
Opera wise, sure they are very comparable though.
@@BigBrainSinger If you want to compare Floor with somebody else then it's probably Anneke van Giersbergen. But one tip, as a 'vocal enthusiast', look at Ayreon - The day that the world breaks down.. it's Progressive rock/metal, with a lot of astonishing singers (world top tier, you already know a couple).
Remind me to add this one to my Spotify playlist...
They sang Stabat Mater Dolorosa at the same concert you HAVE to watch it ❤️❤️
Stabat mater dolorosa juxta crucem lacrimosa dum pendebat filius.
The first time I heard them harmonize Lakme' popped into my mind.
this video also makes me redefine 'vocal delight'
fifty years ago Jon Lord of Deep Purple already composed a concerto for rock band and orchestra... early cross-over
The guy who's "growl shouting" Floors name is Mark Jansen (Not related), Floors former bandmate in After Forever and founder of Epica.
If you enjoyed this, check out their duet of Stabat Mater Dolorosa, same concert. AMAZING!
As superb as Floor is, Epica deserves some solo attention.
See Consign to Oblivion from the same concert, which is IMO, their very best in terms of compositional talent:
ua-cam.com/video/-s3Ax1lwYKE/v-deo.html
If that's too long for you, Cry for the Moon is an old fan favourite. A nice live studio version here with small chamber orchestra/choir:
ua-cam.com/video/r_3k-DD6Op4/v-deo.html
P.S. Really enjoying the reaction content so far. I'm less into metal these days though still have a rather large soft spot for the symphonic stuff, and it's great to be reminded of the feelings of wonder and joy I felt exploring the music of bands like Nightwish and Epica for the first time.
You should totally watch their duet of stabat mater dolorsa from the same show!!
I've already sent a request to Floor for the two of them to do the Flower Duet. No answer yet, but I didn't expect one. But that would be amazing.
🤔 In the same show they also do Stabat Matar together!
Can't wait to hear it!
@@BigBrainSinger you may love to hear Floor's vocals from her 1st band Afterforever : After Forever - Dreamflight Live ProgPower USA VIII (2007) : ua-cam.com/video/73-_F9prx4I/v-deo.html

There's another duet from this tour you might enjoy.
Charlie, really appreciate the detailed explanations and analysis(of which I'm sure you could go deeper, however, there is only so much time), I do like when the average person react to performances, but yours expands more into the technical and even more artistic side of what these amazing performers are presenting to us. Thank you good Sir!!
I'm glad I can create content that you can appreciate in such a way! My goal is to open the enjoyment of singing (for listeners and aspiring vocalists) to as many people as possible. This is fantastic :)
You can find floor singing o mio bambino cara on youtube😁
Simone and Floor sound similar-ish because they were taught by the same vocal teacher 👩🏫
The same vocal teacher is Amanda Somerville
Finally, somebody else who heard the 'Delibes moment'. I thought I was the only one who heard the Flower Duet in there.
Boom, great minds, Graham!
To complete the set of the holy trinity of Dutch symphonic goddesses you are missing out on Sharon den Adel the vocalist of Within Temptation. They are a Dutch symphonic metal band that started the same time as Nightwish 1996. They are considered one of the pioneers of female fronted symphonic metal bands. She applied, and was admitted, to the conservatory for opera training but did not like it so she changed over to the arts-academy within her first semester. So apart from that short stay she is completely self-tough.There she studied clothing design and management and completed it successfully. She has mainly used these skills in designing outfits used on stage. To me Sharon is my all time favorite vocalist. That beings said i will agree to anybody that technically nobody is able to beat Floor but there is just a specific tone in Sharon's that connects to me. On top of that both vocalists come a cross like normal and decent people. I would not feel uncomfortable talking to either of them.
If this got you interested then try "The promise" from their "Black symphony" concert where they were supported by full symphonic orchestra and choir. ua-cam.com/video/39k1IQoeLAU/v-deo.html
Listened to Sharon last night 😁 will put that video up soon
Great Reaction. You should do Epica - Unleashed from this show. Its awesome.
Love your analysis of songs ..... brilliant !
Thanks, Stewart!
Same Show, also Floor and Simone: Stabat Mater Dolorosa. Gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.
Just in case that you didn't check out Epica thoroughly yet:
- Cry for the Moon
- Consign to Oblivion
2 songs that you really need to hear.
Also, check out Kamelot.
Male singer, but also very impressive.
- The Haunting (features Simone)
- Liar Liar (featuring Alyssa Glyz-White - hope I spelled that right - from Arch Enemy)
- March of Mephisto (features Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir)
- Don't you cry
Songs that are very welkl done and should give you a glimpse of what Kamelot is able to do.
And to complete the Dutch Triumvirate of female Metal singers: Within Temptation.
Singers name is Sharon den Adel she's selftaught as far as I know. And holy cow she hits notes... ♥
- Memories
- Angels
- Ice Queen
- Mother Earth
- Jillian...
just to name a few :D
If you try some of these, please enjoy!
maybe you want to hear the metal side of epica try consign to oblivian live at the zenith
I just discovered your channel and Sancta Terra is deffinitely a classic, both for the audience and the reaction comunity. Would you react to Epica's Unchai Utopia or The Skeleton Key from Omega Alive? Those are insane
Romanticide offical live video.
After hearing this many many times I’ve come to the conclusion that Arien the drummer is the mvp of this performance ...with a shout out to the conductor 🤘Floor and Simone both killed it but for the timekeepers to stay on point with the amount of intricacies and total number of possible distractions is pretty amazing!
9:43 and 12:28 . To me, these parts (but the whole of their interaction on stage really) are a reminiscence of the "Flower Duet". Not note-for-note, but emotionally. [12:40 Ooh you said it! Nice, I am not crazy! ;))))]
This is Flower Duet 2.0.
British Airways Lakme commercial: ua-cam.com/video/RVi6GgQBkwE/v-deo.html
We need Floor and Simone to do this duet.
Have you hear Sissel singing? She's amazing as well..
I really want to see you react and analise Stabat Mater Dolorosa from the same Retrospect concert... heartmelting performance.
🤘🏻
Somehow that hasn't come up in the queue yet. I hope someone puts it there soon
@@BigBrainSinger ua-cam.com/video/nhtOORYTGx8/v-deo.html
😁😁😁😌😇
Pregnant Floor in o.i. jouluyo 2016 live. For another beautiful duet try Somewhere Within Temptation (Sharon van Andel and Anneke)..
Floor and Simon are great friends
Flowers duet from Lakmé good shot....First time someone have asocciation just like me😅🤣 just so simply but no one before see this and sign it😅🤣Sorry my English language is awfull😅🤣
Perfect! I think it would be great 👍
