Floor is a hughe fan from Henk since she has seen him performing the phantom as a teen. They never meet till to thisweek for this show. The first episode was for Henk, so all have to sing something for him. Floor, mostly unknow in her homecountry, because they aren't much in metal, even they got 5 of the best voices for that genre... has started with Vilja Lied, check that out. Btw. Henk have learned the distorsion that he brought in for Floor as a surprise Gift for her ! After that he was invited to her solo tour and they became good friends. Another colab is Dangerous Games from the musical Jekyll & Hyde
You can tell Hank is loving every second of it and it's as if he is discovering how talented Floor is and you see him pushing her more and more as the song moves along...and its simply Brilliant...
And since they did rehearsals, that's all acting. It's just an amazing performance, because that is what you're supposed to see in the song. That's the song. And he communicates that (she does as well!)
Henk Poort is a fully trained Opera Baritone singer who has been aked alot for musicals to do parts originally done by tenors but of course it is in his range. He is the originaldutch "Phantom" and became Floor's Idol when she was young listening to him sing. You should hear his rendition of "Vivo Per Lei" same show or his rendition of Disturb's rendition of "The Sound Of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel. 🎶🎶
Henk practiced with using distortion in his voice especially for Floor. He's used it more in his version of the "Sound of Silence", that he sang on the same show for Floor. He also did an amazing duet in Andrea Boccelli's "Vivo per Lei" with Emma Heesters. I really advise you to check it out, because it's so special!
I heard that Henk is Andrew Lloyd Webber's personal favorite Phantom. Also this was apparently a bit of a dream come true for Floor as she's been a fan of Henk since she was young and saw him as the Phantom
She tells so in the first episode on this Beste Zangers season (with Henk as the centerpoint). Check the complete episode, so you can also hear the comments.
Really nice reaction. She held the last note of the song Nemo for like 16 seconds, this year 2022. Unbelievable 🤩🤩🤩🤩 You have heard her angelic side, next one, the other side, the demon side. Revamp, the song 'Disdain or Wildcard...have fun 🤩🤩🤩 Hail Floor, Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇😇😇
Is it hard to say something nice about Floor and Henk (very famous opera bariton Marko made an awesome different phantom. But sorry, Henk was the best phantom, even Webber found the best.
@@monicacarolina6480 Relax. Recommending another version of this song that is also great is not disrespecting this one. I even mentioned Henk being Webber's personal favorite in another comment. I love this version and I was just making a tongue in cheek compliment to Marko. Obviously that is just one song from the musical and can't be compared to singing and acting the entire thing. But it is a really interesting different take on the Phantom and Marko is a great singer with an amazing voice so it is interesting to check out.
You should also check out the Nightwish version of Phantom of the Opera with Tarja, their original singer in the show called End of an Era. This was their last show with Tarja.
Congratulations, never too late to find this. Legions of Nightwish fans started following this show as the season progressed, and this was the final performance in the season. It's been said that it broke the internet.
Love Floor! Glad to see you return to seeing what else she can do. I hope you return to checking out some more from Nightwish. I'd especially be interested in seeing what you thought of Everdream, Storytime, Romanticide and others, as sung by Floor. I'm sure Gabriel sent you a list of songs to check out in your Ghost Love Score reaction, but I might suggest a slight segue to check out Tarja with Nightwish doing Phantom of the Opera from 2005, maybe as a point of comparison and a brief intro to Nightwish's first singer. Enjoyed the reaction by the way!
You should also look at the duets with Simone Simons of Epica. Both the Epica song Sancta Terra and their duet of Stabat Mater Delorosa in the same concert
That night was the Night of Duets. They sang beautifully all singers, but… these two, literally broke the Internet. It was off the charts. The other singers were thinking: Thanks Lord that this is not a competition, otherwise we would be fighting for the second place.
Nice one! I think you'd really enjoy checking out the rest of the 2019 Beste Zangers performances, not just Floor's (which are excellent and very varied) but some of the others too.
In the same show "Beste Zangers 2019" (= best singers), Floor's first cover was especially for Henk Poort, whom she admired since she was a young girl. The song was the "Vilja-lied" (Vilja song) in German, from "Die Lustige Witwe" (the Merry Wodow), an operette from Franz Léhar. You should check this out. It was the first time the Dutch TV viewers saw her and she gave it her own 'rocky' stile, using all her technicus skills as an incredible versatile vocalist.
Floor has done a series of concerts in the Netherlands, where Henk Poort , was a guest. And they do another duet together, this time a song Floor had from her time in another band before Nightwish.
The Beste Zangers show is about celebrating music and singing, and both Floor and Henk went into the version of the Phantom to have fun. To my ear Floor is quite purposefully exaggerating some of the widenings of the mouth shape, I think for a bit of a mischievous interpretation. And Henk coming in for the second half with the vocal fry is unexpected and refreshing. About the stage show, they both have the moves. Floor towering over Henk, one would guess the Phantom would seem less powerful than intended, but Henk makes up for all of it with very good acting (specially the bit when he steps right into Floor's personal space to deliver the line "inside your mind"). As a contrast Floor acts as a girl both haunted by the Phantom, and as I see it falling in love with him, with those direct eye contact moments with a shy smile and the call to a dance gestures.
Part of why why Floor chose this duet for the show was that when a Dutch rendition of Phantom of the Opera first toured in the 80s or 90s, it was Henk Poort who played the phantom. The rock grit he adds here is something really different from his usual styling. When you get a chance, it's definitely worth checking out more from this show (Beste Zangers). There were some real gems from all that involved. And Floor especially... She really blew a lot of minds with her versatility. Might be fun to contrast her rendition of Shallow to one of Lady Gaga's. ( I consider Lady Gaga one of the more talented musicians and vocalists on the pop scene but Floor's mastery of phrasing and dynamics is on a whole different level.)
Love to see you come back to Floor. Saw her live with Nightwish in Boston Saturday night for the first time. Truly magical and she is even better live. So much stage presence.
Nightwish did a cover of Phantom of the Opera. Check out the video of the End of an Era show. Marco sings the part of the Phantom, Tarja was the Nightwish vocalist at the time and sings Christine. If you want more Marco, highly recommended.
Don't forget Floor and Marco singing Schubert's Ave Maria in their own inimitable style. If you each Floor, in all her Nigjtwish performances ahe is using her body, hands and face to act the part. You mentioned Henke's grittiness - he learned distortion specifically for this show.
They sound so good! I’ve seen this so many times and it’s just better and better. I also love his version of Sound of Silence. And Floor, well Floor is Floor! She sings amazing all the time. Never disappoints. I absolutely love her singing ❤️🎤
Great reaction to an awesome musical! Just wanted to remind you of a suggestion I had for you to analyze the Danish National Symphony Orchestra's rendition of "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly/Ecstasy of Gold." It features choral moments along with two sopranos (the "Wah Wah" lady and whistler named Tuva, and Christine Nonbo Anderson). The words are more guttural utterances, as far as I can tell. The orchestra includes unusual pieces: piano, electric bass and guitar, tubular bells, oboe or English horn, ocarina, flute, violin, heavy strings, brass, and more. Many reactors seem to find raw emotion in these pieces (well, a medley). It's the music that Ennio Morricone wrote for Sergio Leone's movie of the same name, set in New Mexico during the U.S. Civil War-a chase for gold. This piece changes the way we think of music for the Western film genre, shifting away from the Elmer Bernstein style to Morricone's. There's plenty of vocal sections to analyze. DNSO's video currently has over 143 million views, so it certainly has its fan base!
Floor graduated from the Rock Academy in Tilburg,The Netherlands, and had additional two years part-time training in musical and opera/operette. So not a full classical conservatory training.
When Henk sings "inside your mind" and Floor moves slowly down, that moment seems so intimate, like he actually has a sort of hypnotic effect on her, she plays with the flirtation and a sense of fear while he's just menacing, Henk is amazing as The Phantom PS: love the fact that nobody expected that raspy side of Henk lol and Floors looks so proud of him for letting his rocker side out
Henk actually ended up performing the duet with Floor during a Nightwish-concert. He put on Jeans and a T-Shirt for the occasion and you can tell that he's out of his element^^
This show was beautiful to watch. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend watching Floor's performances- Vilja lied, Winner, Qué Se Siente and About Love I Don't Know A Thing are my favorites.
Maybe you will be interested in Floor singing the credits of Sabaton´s "Christmas Truce" video and in Epica´s "Sancta Terra" (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show
In order to understand what Hank is doing with the "gritiness", you NEED to see the Nightwish version, even though you won't see Floor but their first singer, Tarja (pronounced Tar-yah). But even though you WILL be impressed by Tarja, I bet you'll be more surprised by Marco. :)
Hello and greetings from germany \m/ I am a fullbearded metalhead that fangirls floor jansen :D i love to see your little mimics that show you doing too 😊
This is the first time Henk ever sang with distortion in his whole life to surprise Floor for her week in the show because she is a Metal singer. He did Sound of Silence & this one with a bit of distortion.
Not yet :-) It was postponed due to covid. They should do the Ziggo dome show this November together. He did join Floor at her solo show at Paaspop, a Dutch festival, and actually growled there, instead of using distortion. And he was in all of Floor her solo shows. And since Floor is both solo and with Nightwish on Pinkpop, this summer, I really hope Henk will join her with Nightwish then. Since I have tickets for that festival...
Go to her UA-cam channel and watch her interview with Henk. They discuss among other things, learning and training different techniques and styles to avoid being pidgeon-holed or a one trick pony
Heck did the song after Floor promised that he could sing with Nightwish. They had to wait until COVID was over to make it happen. It's one you should check out, you won't be disappointed, even if you don't do it as a reaction. BTW, I enjoy your reactions.... otherwise why would I be here. Lol
Now you need to listen to Floor's other performances from this show. Only Tim Akkerman had heard about her before this show. She was not well known in The Netherlands before this show since they are not real big on metal bands. Floor started the season off with Villa Lied sung in German. She made it more of a rock song for Henk Poort because his mother use to sing it to him as a lullaby. You can see on the other singers faces as they realize how good she really is. ua-cam.com/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/v-deo.html
Just one littel thing that's mostly forgotten or ignored (or just no known by many...): The Phantom of the Opera is, although it's missleading title, not an Opera, it is a Musical and as you mentioned in your reaction, the role of Christine is a young Women. So when you listen to this piece, always keep in mind that this is not supposed to sound like an operatic aria although this specific song has a pretty uncommonly high tone at the end which makes this pretty hard to find the right cast for, I belive it's not sung live most of the shows because most typical musical singers won't be able to sing this, I belive it's an E6, 2 times a day over several weeks. Even Floor did not sang it in this video, I think she's singing it one step lower D6 however, I think her range goes all the way up to F6 so this was more a musical decision rather than a "physical" limitation I think.
This is an episode of an Amazing TV show in Denmark. I've been watching these since 2012. It was featuring Glynnis Grace and George Baker (Little Green Bag). These are live on film and the settings are fantastic. Oh, and all the singers there are professional singers. George Baker did Little Green Bag back in 1970 and Glynnis Grace sound just like Whitney Houston. The show has always been called "Beste Sangers".
I'm obsessed with this duet. Floor fangirling over singing with Henk is awesome.
Floor is a hughe fan from Henk since she has seen him performing the phantom as a teen. They never meet till to thisweek for this show. The first episode was for Henk, so all have to sing something for him. Floor, mostly unknow in her homecountry, because they aren't much in metal, even they got 5 of the best voices for that genre... has started with Vilja Lied, check that out.

He also did an amazing duet in Andrea Boccelli's "Vivo per Lei" with Emma Heesters. I really advise you to check it out, because it's so special!
@@TheVocalyst Yes their performance of Vivo per Lei is beautiful and enchanting.
Yes, Henk + Emma really is worth listening to.
I heard that Henk is Andrew Lloyd Webber's personal favorite Phantom. Also this was apparently a bit of a dream come true for Floor as she's been a fan of Henk since she was young and saw him as the Phantom
I heard that as well.
She tells so in the first episode on this Beste Zangers season (with Henk as the centerpoint). Check the complete episode, so you can also hear the comments.
Every singer needs someone like Henk haha, the sheer push he can give with just the "sing for me" alone is so damned strong haha
this was perfect , when they recorded it it was pooring rain!
Really nice reaction. She held the last note of the song Nemo for like 16 seconds, this year 2022. Unbelievable 🤩🤩🤩🤩
You have heard her angelic side, next one, the other side, the demon side.
Revamp, the song 'Disdain or Wildcard...have fun 🤩🤩🤩
Hail Floor, Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇😇😇
I really dont know any better version of the phantom. This chemistry, wooh
This is not the follow up nightwish song we were hoping for, but you are in the top 3 vocal analysts and 'reacters' on the whole net, so I watch.
That is one of my most favourite songs ever
For me this is the Duet of the Century. Excellent singing and acting chemistry from those two seasoned professionals. ⛄👍
Now you need to check out the Nightwish version of this song. Not to compare Floor with Tarja but because Marco is the secret best Phantom! 😁
Yes, it's amusing how other reactors realize how good at singing Marco is.
Is it hard to say something nice about Floor and Henk (very famous opera bariton Marko made an awesome different phantom. But sorry, Henk was the best phantom, even Webber found the best.

You should also check out the Nightwish version of Phantom of the Opera with Tarja, their original singer in the show called End of an Era. This was their last show with Tarja.
Love to see Floor hamming it up a bit here 😁
Sancta Terra by Epica, from the Retrospect tour. The duet between Simone and Floor is epic.
My favorite band :)
Lucky to live in the Netherlands hehe
I agree !! Simone and Floor duet is wonderful !
I adhere to that. This is iconic!!
Congratulations, never too late to find this. Legions of Nightwish fans started following this show as the season progressed, and this was the final performance in the season. It's been said that it broke the internet.
What a privilege to watch/listen to this!
They also sang 'it's a dangerous game'. Also a stunning performance!
Love Floor! Glad to see you return to seeing what else she can do. I hope you return to checking out some more from Nightwish.

Mr Henk Poort was once the Phantom on stage and has a LARGE resume and skillset, a truly talented man.
In addition to her vocal abilities Floor's stage presence is stunning. Watch her expressions and body language during this song.
The Beste Zangers show is about celebrating music and singing, and both Floor and Henk went into the version of the Phantom to have fun. To my ear Floor is quite purposefully exaggerating some of the widenings of the mouth shape, I think for a bit of a mischievous interpretation.

this is such a great duo
you pronounced Henk's name the best so far love it!
Floors a master at going from lyrical to contemporary, thats her thing , shes been doing that since her first band After Forever

Netherlands best export product:)
Epica is also awesome, Floor and Simone Simons often sing together.
Greetz from the metal goddess country 🇳🇱
One of the best duets ever. Great rraction. Cheers from tha Low Countries.
Now definitly you can watch more of Floor her performances on Beste Zangers and from the ones that have performed for her!
I'd say you'd love a duo reaction for How's the Heart. One the official music video, then the accoustic version at Planet Rock.
He threw in that Grit as an homage to the Metal Queen he was singing with
Great voices, everybody will agree on that. But the music! That band! WOW!!!
They sound so good! I’ve seen this so many times and it’s just better and better. I also love his version of Sound of Silence. And Floor, well Floor is Floor! She sings amazing all the time. Never disappoints. I absolutely love her singing ❤️🎤
What a gift to have a voice like this. I sound like a dying animal
The "kids" are being schooled!! and they are Loving it!!
Tolles Video... Kanal direkt abonniert.
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland und weiter so. 😁🤘
OMG I've never seen this piece from them before, and it's SO good!!!
You are adorable.... also... great reaction...this is the peak of music..... be gratefull for being alive to hear this woman.
Also I don't know what is in the water over there, but there are so many great singers in Denmark.
Great reaction to an awesome musical!

So not a full classical conservatory training.
Floor and Hank are having so much fun!
7:06 I always get full body chills when it gets to this part! Especially when he literally growls “Sing for me”.
(^~^) 💕🦋
Next "classical" encounter : Shoemaker.ua-cam.com/video/Rjp_DfvJimg/v-deo.html And yes, they can bring it live.
Floor Jansen - the only "christine" ever, who kind of turned the plot around and haunted the phantom. 🤣
I love her ability to tell stories so much. 🥰
When Henk sings "inside your mind" and Floor moves slowly down, that moment seems so intimate, like he actually has a sort of hypnotic effect on her, she plays with the flirtation and a sense of fear while he's just menacing, Henk is amazing as The Phantom

Hola saludos desde Argentina....floor jansen ....es increíble y junto a nigthwish realmente fuera de este mundo .
This show is so great, I'm watching again this year because Anneke van Giersbergen is on.
The part of Christine was tailored to Sarah Brightman's voice. Webber wrote it for her.
If you like Henks "Erik" in this one. Just Wait to Markos dito i Nightwish Phantom med Tarja.
In order to understand what Hank is doing with the "gritiness", you NEED to see the Nightwish version, even though you won't see Floor but their first singer, Tarja (pronounced Tar-yah). But even though you WILL be impressed by Tarja, I bet you'll be more surprised by Marco. :)
The singing is amazing, but holding that smile the whole time... damn. :P
Hello and greetings from germany \m/ I am a fullbearded metalhead that fangirls floor jansen :D i love to see your little mimics that show you doing too 😊
You should also check Vilja lied, from the same show. it was for the others the first time ever hearing floor sing that gives it an extra dimension
Don't forget to delve into more of Floor's songs. Some of them are classical Christmas carols.
This is the first time Henk ever sang with distortion in his whole life to surprise Floor for her week in the show because she is a Metal singer. He did Sound of Silence & this one with a bit of distortion.
I heard that Floor taught Henk heavy distortion for this song and this was the first performance.
He learned distorted singing for sound of silence earlier in the series
After this Henk and Floor did this on stage together a few times with Nightwish.
Not yet :-)
It was postponed due to covid.
They should do the Ziggo dome show this November together.
He did join Floor at her solo show at Paaspop, a Dutch festival, and actually growled there, instead of using distortion.
And he was in all of Floor her solo shows.
And since Floor is both solo and with Nightwish on Pinkpop, this summer, I really hope Henk will join her with Nightwish then.
Since I have tickets for that festival...
Go to her UA-cam channel and watch her interview with Henk. They discuss among other things, learning and training different techniques and styles to avoid being pidgeon-holed or a one trick pony
Great reaction and commentary! Loved it.
Floor Jansen and Tarja are the only two people in this world gave me goosebumps when they sing.
You please...need to watch Nightwish's cover of the Phantom...
Heck did the song after Floor promised that he could sing with Nightwish. They had to wait until COVID was over to make it happen. It's one you should check out, you won't be disappointed, even if you don't do it as a reaction.
BTW, I enjoy your reactions.... otherwise why would I be here. Lol
I love Floor, no matter what she does. I could watch Floor all day, even with the sound off. LOLl By the way, you have the most beautiful smile.
You should also try her performance of Vilja Lied on this show.
You need to listen to her version of Shallow, by Lady GaGa, also on this season of Beste Zangers, it's a complete masterpiece.
You have a pretty smile. Also, Floor is amazing!
Henk would always joke “Henk Poort? Nooit van gehoord!”
“Henk Poort? Never heard of him!”
You need to see Nightwish -Phantom of the Opera whith Tarja Turunen on voice ,if you want to see something !
Now you need to listen to Floor's other performances from this show. Only Tim Akkerman had heard about her before this show. She was not well known in The Netherlands before this show since they are not real big on metal bands. Floor started the season off with Villa Lied sung in German.

You should check out Dirty Loops - Hit me or Next to you. amazing band. the end riff of Hit Me is amazing
Ugh...Floor! She can sing anything. ANYTHING. Opera, Rock....next year she'll rap no doubt. :)
You should react to the original Nightwish singer, Tarja, singing this with Nightwish.
Try listening to the Nightwish version of Phantom Of The Opera, but its not Floor its Tarja and Marco from an eirlier line up.
if I recall correctly, Floor helped Henk learn how to do the growl.
Guess it is no surprise she is a great actress as well.
If you wanna hear Henk really show off his voice. You have to listen to him sing sound of silence.
Nice reaction, thank you. Nice hair cut too.........
Have you listened to Floor and Simone sing stabat mater dolerosa? Give it a listen!
Just one littel thing that's mostly forgotten or ignored (or just no known by many...): The Phantom of the Opera is, although it's missleading title, not an Opera, it is a Musical and as you mentioned in your reaction, the role of Christine is a young Women.

Even Floor did not sang it in this video, I think she's singing it one step lower D6 however, I think her range goes all the way up to F6 so this was more a musical decision rather than a "physical" limitation I think.
Andrew Lloyd Webber said that Henk Poort was his favorite Phantom.
You should try watching Tarja's version with Fabio Lione
Thanks
This is an episode of an Amazing TV show in Denmark. I've been watching these since 2012. It was featuring Glynnis Grace and George Baker (Little Green Bag). These are live on film and the settings are fantastic. Oh, and all the singers there are professional singers. George Baker did Little Green Bag back in 1970 and Glynnis Grace sound just like Whitney Houston. The show has always been called "Beste Sangers".
Denmark? This is Dutch tv though
Epica-stabat mater dolorosa ft. Floor Jansen
you said henk poort perfectly
