Check out the original video at • Ave Maria - Marko & Floor
I think the difference between this duet and others is you can see just how much Marco and Floor like to sing together.
You can tell by the look in their eyes they are having a blast and love being there together.
Indeed. I love seeing that. They’re both such wonderful people. How could they not? 🥰 - G
@@MikeandGinger Will you ever react to this beautiful ballad from Epica? ua-cam.com/video/sn765tJuaoE/v-deo.html
I've seen people asking you for more Epica countless times.. to no avail :-(
Epica is as great as Nightwish. They are my two most favourite bands ever.
I believe Mark Jansen is a brilliant composer, same as Tuomas Holopainen.
I know Ginger loves operatic vocals and I'm pretty sure she won't be disappointed. Simone Simons has a beautiful voice!
@@Fermion911 we have 5 Epica videos so far. The most recent only 2 weeks ago. It is definitely on our list to do soon, but Christmas took priority the last 2 weeks, as well as a significant health problem I’ve had, and a raft of overtime I’ve been trying to pack in at my full time job, before Christmas. Every video we do takes a minimum of 2 hrs to record and edit. Those hours are all “spare time” hours. The same spare time hours I have also been frantically trying to use to complete a few home made gifts for family.
We get hundreds of requests per week. We prioritize as best we can.
Patience and understanding would be appreciated. But this is how we do things. For good or ill - G
They could get tears from a glass eye..
Indeed - G
marko and floor bring Christmas spirit up this performance. thanx to great reaction and have wonderful day there.
Ohhhh my. If that doesn't bring a tear to your eye....
Marco starts it so beautifully, but then when Floor comes in, hard to even describe. The feeling, emotion, and joy in her singing - not to mention that smile - just melts you every time. She is truly unique
So true. When Floor comes in, one's heart just melts!
Marko said (in short): "Lighters up!" Merry Christmas from Finland - the land of Santa Claus! ⛄🎅👍
Even though Saint Nicholas was Turkish :-D
@@Drescher1984 Nono, Santa Claus (Joulupukki in Finnish) lives at Korvatunturi, Finnish Lapland near Russian border. And that's the Truth.😜😅
🤔 I've been to Rovaniemi thought that's where he (fictional) lived? Greetings from the Netherlands...
@@cvb6089 Santa's village at Rovaniemi is only a market place for tourists. The Real Santa lives far more remote place at Korvatunturi. 🎅🙏
@@pekkakarppinen1608 Ah Ok. Rovaniemi was indeed a tourist trap ( but a beautiful one) . i spend two weeks during Christmas and New year in 2007 staying at an isolated place at a lake nearby Kuusamo. So Rovaniemi was quite a surprise especially seeing all the Japanese tourist there...
Such a great duet.
Don't worry Ginger, that's how I felt when I first heard it. 😁😁
Great reaction guys 👌, a must see is floor; heavily pregnant singing o holy night, unbelievable vocals and crowd participation.
Thank you for the watch and reaction of this one. I just knew this might be the one to "hit you in the feels". It hits me in the feels each time I watch it. I so would have loved to been there in the audience to experience that magical event.
Lol. I made Ginger cry. But at least they were good tears!
Troublemaker 😏 - G
The Goddess and the Viking, sister and brother singing together. ... soo oo lovely.
So very beautiful. ❤️
Amen 💝💝💝
Such a gentle rendition from them both. You must see Floor sing Oh holy night in Finnish. There are two videos on YT
You also have to watch Oholynight with Floor 😃🌲🇳🇴🏴❤️
❤
There's a very emotional version with Marko and Tarja, too. Especially if you're in the history of them.
Both of you, Merry Christmas from the Netherlands. (i was crying too, sssssssssst)
Merry Christmas, Bert! ❤️ - G
In the bginning Marko asked the public to light their lighters, camera lights and or whatever, to create mood... G - you had leakage in your face...
Always. I’m a total sucker 🤣 - G
There is a video of Floor performing “oh holy night “. This would fit into your holiday theme perfectly.
So glad to see you guys do this one! I knew you'd appreciate it. I hope you can also squeeze in Oi Jouluyo!
Floor singing O Holy night Raskasta Jouluya_ Oi Jouluyo pick the one when she was expecting please
Merry Christmas to you to! Love your reactions. An absolutly love this version from those two angels!
Thank you! And Merry Christmas to you ❤️ - G
I'm a simple guy, just liked the video before watch 😁. I've seen it a lot of times 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same.
It's the least I can do for channels that I watch. The same with commenting.
We appreciate it, guys! ❤️🙏🏻 😘 - G
@@MikeandGinger 😘- G and where's the 😘- M?? 😁
@@klaymor73 lol. He’s working 😅 - G
@@MikeandGinger hahahahahah, ok I can wait until he cames , hahahahahahahah
What can I say - Floor & Marko are just great together
I just have to hear Floor sing and I turn into a pool of goo. She is so beautiful
For a man who doesn't believe in God, he sure sings this damn good!
Floor is an Atheist but she does appreciate a beautiful piece of music.
I wanted to recommend this video to you, but forgot. But luckily you knew it yourselves 🤘
Great choice! I think both of them not only have great voices, but they are both masters of imparting emotions with their singing...as evidenced by the number of Nightwish reactions I’ve seen where the reactors are wiping away tears. Good job, guys.
How can one group have two singers like this, it's just unfair on the rest.
And Troy too.
Hahaha! Hey Nightwish, give another band a chance, will ya!
Thank you for this reaction. Such a beautifull rendition of Ave Maria . Imagine being there.
Don't forget they are metalheads. Probably the best singers around, very versatile, they can do it all.... The best prove that metal isn't just some 'screaming' or 'destroying' the guitars or 'worshipping the devil'. Metal is 👍🏻👍🏻🤘🏻🤘🤘
Greetings from Finland & thanks Greg and you two for this one.
P.S. In Finland, which is the most metal country in the world with over 700 metal bands per 1M citizens, we have this thing called "Raskasta Joulua / Heavy Christmas" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raskasta_Joulua
Wow, you guys look very Danish. Thanks for the video, Marci is great, and Floor... Well you know.
Stick and sweet, and very bad for you? 😉🤣 - G
@@MikeandGinger Hehe, no I love Danes :-) You seem very hyggelig (nice).
@@einarthormodster95 Thank you ❤️ - G
The one thing that still amazes me with this is that they went through 3 languages during this song. Marko sings his verse in Finnish, which sounds amazing. Then Floor comes in, sings half of her verse in Latin, and the last half of her verse in English. It's one thing to maybe drop a word or two of a different language into a verse, but flipping from a Latin language to a Germanic language without missing a beat is phenomenal.
Thank you for playing this one. I love them so much. Imagine a full concert of people doing this in Metal style.
I'll suggest trying the same song only with Marco and Tarja. It was the only time Tarja has reunited with one of her old bandmantes. Their chemistry is still amazing. Same concert series as this one except the year before i believe.
Ciao ragazzi, Buon Natale
Merry X-MAS from the Netherlands!
🎅👋
Thank you! And Merry Christmas to you! ❤️ - G
Marko have done this one with Elize Ryd from Amaranthe too.
And Floor has done Silent Night, and that's s Christmas song. 😉 She did it in Finnish...
They're all from Raskasta Joulua (Heavy Christmas) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raskasta_Joulua
A very pregnant Floor doing White Christmas: ua-cam.com/video/vJI5A5miSWs/v-deo.html
Another great song is Do you hear what I hear by Home free a lot of interesting tones done only with the voice .
Lov you guys ❣️
🌹
Next Christmas you might want to search YT and play some "Raskasta Joulua" (Heavy Christmas), Finland has the most heavy metal bands per capita in the world and heavy is very much a normal every day thing, playing on normal radio stations etc.. Almost every Christmas for quite some years now, Finnish metal bands have collaborated to play&sing known Christmas songs, with a flair and releasing a CD..
FLOOOOOR❤❤❤❤
MY GOD guys this song hit me soooo hard because this was my late girlfriend favorite Christmas song and even now with Marko and Floor singing it made me think back of all the good times we had together so i wanna say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for reacting too this song it really means a lot too me.
With that being said I wanna wish you both a happy and healthy Merry Christmas and greetings from Wilco from The Netherlands MUCH MUCH MUCH LOVE too both of you
Thank you, Wilco! A very Merry Christmas to you, as well! ❤️❤️❤️- G
Nice version, I had not seen this one before. Hopefully "Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö - Floor Jansen' is on your schedule.
Christmas Day! - G
check out also the 2019 "ave maria" with marko and floor. you can see the deep friendship between them. thank you both.
Thank you for this. It was amazing 😘
Marko Hietala, Raskasta Joulua (Heavy Christmas) 2019 "Varpunen Jouluaamuna" PLEASE, PLEASE🥰🤗😪❤️. Stay safe!
There are a few versions of them doing this song for Metal Christmas and this one is my favorite, Floor looks and sounds stunning, Marco is ..... well Marco, they broke the mold after making those two :D
This is also from those shows (probably linked it before, you may have done it too..memory is bad this time of the year.busy!!)
Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö - Floor Jansen
You got A new Ave Maria by Floor Jansen.
Listen to OG3NE. They are 3 sisters from the Netherlands..
The stir of the human voice reaches into our souls...
It is off the Mark of the channel perhaps but I think you both might really enjoy "How Great Thou Art" - by Home Free... Acapella.
Probably the best version I have ever heard... and the scenery inspires.
It is so amazing... that even if you would never make a video of it (still, I hope you do), I would just be happy knowing you saw it.
Since you enjoyed this performance I have a great follow up with Floor singing O Holly Night in Dutch with a Nightwish twist. The band members are not NW, but you'll love this nonetheless. It is from 2016 and you will notice she is well into pregnancy with her daughter. It is an amazing performance like no one but Floor could do.

Hi Ginger & Mike, if your interested in looking at Marko Hietala, I think you might like, The Voice Of My Father (Official Lyric Video). Perhaps have your tissues handy, I think you may like it. Marko such a talented singer in his own right. There is no Floor though. Enjoy your reactions immensely. ❤️🤘🇦🇺
This one is definitely on our list for soon - G
*There's also an "Ave Maria"-version, which Marco and Elize Ryd (from AMARANTHE) sings together...*
I want Floor and Marco plushies to cuddle with. 💙💟❤️ Good vibes from France.
If Floor tells you to jump in the air, do a 360, and do a super hero landing, YOU DO IT! LOL
Exactly! - G
Trust me, Nanowar of Steel Valhalleluja is the greatest Christmas song ever.
Hi Guys Merry Christmas You really should react to Floor singing O Holy Night in Finnish and 6 months pregnant. FYI Tarja sings this song also and she has a whole album of Ave Maria. I like the one with Paolo
I've given up trying not to cry when Floor is singing... she has a magical way of pulling the emotion out of you. to steal a line from Star Trek, resistance is futile.
And Nightwish has them both!
At least they’re willing to share them with us 😁 - G
@@MikeandGinger :D
Always nice to see nightwish response from you. This version of ave maria ua-cam.com/video/ut6ufu2CPNg/v-deo.html is also great. Floor an angel in white and of course Marco.
My only complaint about this is that they don't do a full verse together.
Saw this one before and is really good. Have you heard Floor doing " O Holy Night " ? Is really good, has a little metal flavor to it, link here and starts at about 1:40 ua-cam.com/video/6asFfKqE2vg/v-deo.html .
Here's a Christmas suggestion also from another Netherlands group made up of 3 sisters 2 are fraternal twins one was born with one lung their harmonies are heavenly.their name is Og3ne (oh Jean) derived from the fact they share the same genes there's 3 of them and their Mother(R.I.P) was O blood type here's one of 2 very good Christmas songs they performed a couple years ago Og3ne "Christmas Where are you" ua-cam.com/video/KpPJB0J2A0o/v-deo.html during the performance an artist performs a drawing on a light projector that shows the picture on the big wall. I also love their 12 minute "Andrews Sisters Christmas Medley" but it's an album version the only live version is just a 2 minute piece of the medley.
Please, react to "Shallow - Floor live at the show Beste Zanger". Kisses from Brazil
🎄🎄🇳🇱🎄🎄👍
I love that you reacted to this. I love this. Here is my request: react to Tim Minchin's "White Wine in the Sun". Tim Minchin is a famous Australian comedian. As atheists, you NEED to hear this Christmas song. It has a good message. The song is funny in places, but also beautiful and sentimental. You won't regret it.

We’ll definitely check it out- G
Really? One of the best?
Yes.
@@MikeandGinger Floor is one of the best (she's dutch !) but the guy neeeh!
I love Marco, but he looks like an escapee from a mental ward. haha. Don't tell him I said that. haha.
