    Is there nothing this woman can't sing. No doubt she has some of the best breath control ever but it is the emotion she can also put in a performance that does it for me. One of the best vocalists I have ever heard.

    Gospel? The original music was composed by Remo Giazotto and named Adagio in G minor. Adagio means slow in Italian, as it was meant to be played in that manner by a string orchestra as a Neo Baroque piece. Lara Fabian (who happens to also be part Italian) was asked to write lyrics for it in 1999 and the song has been covered by numerous artists. For a real vocal treat watch From Lara With Love 1999 concert in which she performs her song live.

    Nope - Floor can do anything, which you should know about now..
    And her looks!! Please watch her stories from their farm - Floor making fence with a sledgehammer, shoveling horse poop, riding her horse - she is as natural as they comes, believe me - humble, sweet, sweaty and just a nice, intelligent, nature loving woman, mother and wife, with both legs solid planted on the ground.
    And yes, she is also very beautiful - almost as beautiful as my wife 😉 - but Floor sings better than my wife - actually better than everybody else in this Galaxy. The Greatest artist in this century.
    By the way - I think it is deliberate that Floor's voice is low at start, and then she adds more and more power, to show how the feelings inside her grows and grows, until they fill everything.
    Just my thoughts

    This is not really a cover from Fabian and certainly not a "Fabian song"! The peace, music and lyrics, was originally written by Remo Giazotto (1919-1998). This dude claimed the music was based on unfinished work from the renowned composer Albinoni of which he found the partitures after a WW2 bombing in 1945... later it became clear that he (Remo) wrote the intire thing himself and Albinoni had nothing to do with it...😊 The piece has since then been interpreted and performed by many singers (even The Doors recorded an adaptation) and often used as moviescore.

    You are SO right. This is the 3rd cover from her where the instrumentals where way too loud. I don't understand why. Such a golden voice needs one of the best professional mixers to do the sound editing. She has her network, she can ask the best studiomixers normally working on the Nightwish albums and live recordings, her husband is the drummer of Sabaton, also he knows people to call to do top of the bill end-editing. It's just a simple matter of sending them the studio instrumental backingtrack, earlier recorded, and the audio channel of her live-voice recording, and mix it all together in the best balance possible. Dam'n. Listen to Lara Fabians original Adagio video, which is mixed perfectly, Lara full on the foreground. Please Floor, listen to your audience, listen to so many professional cover-reactors, they all say the same thing, it is true, this can be done so much better. You deserve it, your voice deserves it, your millions of fans deserve it!
