    The show is Beste Zangers. The older guy is Henk Poort, Floor does Phantom of the Opera with him a few times, he even guested at a nightwish concert. The others are all famous successful dutch+other european singers, the show format is them basically singing songs to each other, in some cases sing each others songs. Well worth doing the rest of Floors performances from this. And yes, she nails every single song, even the ones in other languages - there is a german one and a spanish one i recall.

      Correct, little addition: They sing eachothers songs, or songs that have some kind of meaning for the other singer. Every time (episode) another singer is sung to, this time for Emma Heesters (girl/ lady in red) which at that time was mostly known for her youtube covers. Now has her own stuff too. She covered this Lady Gaga song, and now Floor sung it to her. It's not a competition, yet on each episode the singer sung to choses which song they liked best, just so they can drink champagne. 🥂

    So you got here. This performance was recorded in the TV show "Beste Zangers" 2019 edition, a show where every year 7 singers of various musical genres from the Netherlands are invited to a resort in Ibiza (Spain), together with a moderator. There, in each of the first 7 episodes, one of the singers sits next to the moderator, and the other 6 sing for him/her covers of songs from his/her repertoire or of songs significant to him/her. In the last episode (the 8th), the invited musicians perform duets.
    At the time she was invited in Beste Zangers, Floor was very little known in the Netherlands, where the metal genre is considered underground and is not broadcast in the mainstream audio-visual media. With each episode, thanks to her brilliant performances (like this one), Floor became more and more famous in her own country, after 2 decades of worldwide success, so she was asked to perform solo concerts in the Netherlands, which she did, performing 9 concerts with public at the beginning of 2020, until the start of the global lockdown.
    If you are interested, you will find on Floor's YT channel an entire concert from Amsterdam in September 2021, professionally recorded following a crowdfunding campaign organized by Floor, which reached its proposed goal in just a few hours after its launch.

    This is not a Lady GagGag song. It's Floor Jansen's song now. Any song Floor does, don't even worry about listening to other versions. We would probably never have seen or heard Floor's other side of musical excellence if it wasn't for Covid. Floor is the best thing in music since the late 80's.

    I also love Floor more than any other singer. She is an empath (highly sensitive, her father talked about it in an interview) which at the same time is a gift and a curse for her. She learned to transform and express it within her songs. I am sure therefore so many people are deeply moved when listening to her. And she is a great artist as well as a kind humble person. Of course there are many more great female singers on this planet; I have listened to many of them. But none of them was able to move me like Floor does every time.

The show runs for 17 years on the Dutch television and is named “Beste Zangers” (best singers). In this weekly show Floor sings in 7 different styles and languages. You can find complete shows on You Tube. 2019 was Floors show, but it’s worth it to investigate more years of these show

    The best reaction that I saw of a vocal coach reacting to this song was "Beth Roars". She explains in detail why we love this version. It is well worth a look
    If you type "Beste Zangers English Intro Outro" you get links to videos where they have the lead up and review of the songs in Dutch, you can then put on subtitles to translate to English. It is worth doing because you get the context behind the song choice, and what the other guests thought of the performance
    The first time they heard Floor was when she sang 'Vilja Lied'. It is wonderful seeing the stunned looks on their faces when they first hear Floor sing. Highly recommended

    From the same show the one that always gets tears in my eyes (from Floors interpretation and the feelings she convey with her singing) is "Floor Jansen - About Love I dont Know A Thing (2019) + intro and outro (With eng subtitles)" - the song is made by the youngest male of participants and from his parents divorce, UUUH it is just so JUMMY for one's feelings :) This version has also the precomments/prediscussions and the after song ones, gives you more subtance and understanding (also a snippet of the original song video is shown). Also the song creator listening is in tears/crying listening Floor's version! He says that "It is absurd how you make every song better.."

    This show is called "Best Singers". It is a show where a couple of Dutch musicians are brought together to sing. They sing based on their ideas about the other participant.
    So they have to dive in to each others lives and careers and choose a song to sing to the other. Quite an interesting and often moving show.
    It was redone in Germany. For you to search for gems: ua-cam.com/video/f6iZuScq__Q/v-deo.html
    And to flaunt a bit.. most Dutch people learn to speak 4 languages in their schooling: Dutch, English, Dutch and French.
    That kind of explains Floors' versatility in multiple languages. That being said.. Floors level of English and German is beyond what is taught in schools.

    This is the opposite of opera, but it's perfect because of what it says about a truly gifted vocalist. In the summer of 2019, an obscure (outside of Holland,anyway) Dutch musical reality show suddenly blew up on the internet. The format was not a competition, but a round-robin in which a group of successful recording artists took turns singing for each other. The main reason for the burst of attention was the presence of Floor Jansen, the lead singer for Nightwish. Week after week, she stepped out of her lane to sing ballads, salsa, opera, pop, country…pretty much everything. Here she is, covering Lady Gaga’s hit Shallow. Known for her huge sound, she goes small with this one, giving it a new interpretation which I think is better than the original. You should watch all of her clips from this show, culminating with her duet with Henk Poort on "Phantom of the Opera". That one broke the internet.

    So the people on the couch who are visibly impressed and emotional are actually famous singers. It just shows how great Floor is.
    And prior to those show, Floor was not well known in her home country, because heavy metal music is not popular there.
    Needless to say after this show, she became much much better known.

    The one from this show that gets me is "Que Si Siente". A song in a style she has never done before, in a language she can't speak, in front of the composer/singer. This woman can jump into a smooth Latin rhythm and blows the mind of the original artist in front of her. His face screams "Oh my god, this is my song!!!"

    This show was magical, it brought Floor into the "Limelight", for the conservative Netherlanders, now they appreciate their national treasure a lot more, attending her solo shows.
    Floor HAS got it!

    Floor makes every song better. Literally.
    You should listen to the original as it's a duet with the actor Bradley Cooper, written for the Movie remake of A Star Is Born.

    The show is Beste Zangers (Best Singers) that airs in the Netherlands. All the singers you see are Dutch. They come from various genres. Floor was chosen because metal singers are all but unknown in the Dutch music scene. Floor was unknown as a singer in her own country of birth. This was 2019. The older gentleman was an inspiration for Floor as she grew up - he played the Phantom in the stage version of "Phantom of the Opera" - his name is Henk Poort. I don't remember all their names. One man is a salsa singer famous in Latin countries in the islands in the Caribbean and South America. Another man is Tim Akerman. The other gentleman sings Country music I believe (could be wrong). One of the women is famous on YT -Emma Heesters- (ironically born the same year NW began making music) for covering tons of songs and has millions of viewers. The other is a pop singer famous in the Netherlands I believe.

      She was great doing "moth into flame" live with Metallica 👌 That should be a fun one also to see reacted to some day. But she is obviously a metalhead, my thoughts exactly after I saw that performance😇

    In this show, the Best Singers in the Netherlands, Floor had decided to sing Shallow as softly as possible, without much fuss....
    In the same Dutch show she also sings Phantum or the opera together with Henk Poort... And then she goes all the way to the top.

    You've already seen Tarja's Phantom of the Opera. Floor also sings it on this show (Beste Zangers) with Henk Poort (the older guy in the audience). There's a couple more videos where they sing it in Floor's solo show, including a Nightwish performance where he comes on stage rocking a Nightwish T-shirt. Floor has turned him into a metalhead!

  • @christomashofski9160

    Whether or not this is a Lady Gaga song, per se, depends on what point of view one chooses. It is the theme song from the movie "A Star Is Born" and Lady Gaga sang the official version (as a duet with Bradley Cooper). This is a Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers" (English translation, Best Singers, kind of obvious I guess) wherein it is not a competition but a friendly encounter. Seven popular Dutch singers are selected each season, each one getting their "turn on the couch" for one episode while the others pick one song that is special in some way to the person on the couch and sing it for them. No real "winners" or "losers" just good, clean, good-natured fun and camaraderie. Besides Floor, the other six appearing here are:
    1. Henk Poort (the old guy). He is a highly respected opera baritone renowned as legendary for his part playing The Phantom in the Dutch version of the Broadway musical Phantom of the Opera. In the final episode, Floor does a duet with Henk of Phantom....a real stunner, one continuous Floorgasm from beginning to end! In the opening episode, Henk is "on the couch" and Floor sings for him a song from his childhood that his Mom used to sing and it would make his Dad cry. It was "Vilja Lied," an aria from the 19th Century German operetta "The Merry Widow." Floor sang it for him in German. (Keep in mind her day job is in English, while her native tongue is Dutch!) She did succeed in bringing Henk to tears. Floor was not very well-known in her homeland prior to this show, because much like the U.S., metal is not popular as a mainstream music genre in the Netherlands. The looks on the others' faces when she got up to do the opening song of the season made many of us think they were silently thinking, "Oh look, a metal chick. How cute. What's she gonna do, growl for us?" And then she opened her mouth. Jaws were on the floor (no pun intended...oh who the hell am I kidding, of course the pun was intended).
    2. Tim Akkerman (the young guy with the curly blonde beard). He is a Dutch rock singer/composer and was the only one in the audience who did know of Floor a little bit. On the final duets episode, Floor does a duet with Tim which is another arrangement of Shallow where Floor only does the Lady Gaga parts and Tim plays guitar and does the male vocals. While she intentionally toned down this version to be very low key, the duet with Tim is more aggressive and lively. She sits on a stool during most of the performance while Tim stands and plays guitar. During the buildup to the final chorus, she slowly stands up from the stool, towering over Tim, and we were all thinking, "Oh no! Oh no! She's about to go full Nightwish on him! Please, Floor, don't injure the poor boy too badly!" Fortunately our Valkyrie Goddess was merciful and held back just enough to spare his life. 🤣
    3. Samantha Steenwijk (the attractive older blonde woman). She is a Dutch, I guess one would say "Folk" singer/songwriter. Floor sings one of her own songs, MaMa, back to her. And she sings it in her native Dutch.
    4. Rolf Sanchez (the young Latino-looking guy with the attractive smile of huge white teeth). He is half-Dutch, half-Dominican and spends his time 6 months in the Netherlands and 6 months in the U.S., Miami I think. He is very popular in the Latino community. Floor sings one of his number one hits for him, a Caribbean salsa song "Que Se Siente." Floor gives him a metalized version of the salsa, if you can imagine that! And she sings it in Spanish. Recall that her day job is in English, her native tongue is Dutch, and she has already sung a song in German just a couple episodes before. In other venues she has been known to sing also in Italian, Latin, Finnish, and Swedish. Just sayin'.
    5. Emma Heesters (the attractive young blonde woman). She is a Dutch UA-cam star who does covers of many famous artists including Shallow. That is why Floor sang Shallow here for Emma's day on the couch.
    6. Ruben Annink (the very young guy). He is a Dutch country singer/songwriter. Floor does a version of his own song "About Love, I Don't Know a Thing" which was a very sad song for him he wrote about his parents' unfriendly divorce when he was younger. He wrote the lyrics in Dutch, but Floor translated it to English here with the help of her sister Irene. She succeeded in bringing him to tears.
    The one extra guy on the couch is the show host.
    Lots more to be said about this TV show, but I'm running out of time! Gotta run!

    So welcome in the second huge 'rabbithole' (beside Nightwish) of Floor Jansen ! Just follow all of her solo's in this Dutch TV-show "Beste Zangers 2019" (= best singers). Just check them all out. She sings in German, Dutch, English and Spanish(!) And all her performances are amazing. The 'cherry on the cake' will be her duet of "Phantom of the Opera" with Henk Poort (who also sings amazing). He really played the Phantom for many years. Enjoy all the new "floorgasms" you gonna get. 😊

    For other solo stuff... "Winner" from this same show always makes me cry. Partly because of Floor, but partly because of the song itself. If you have a dry eye after watching her performance... you have a heart of stone! It's a song Tim Akkerman (one of the other people in the Beste Zangers show) wrote for his brother, who is disabled. Floor wanted to sing it as a sort of tribute to anyone who's gone through adversity in their lives.
    Or... if you want to get multiple Floorgasms, check her rendition of "Qué Se Siente". Because the girl can sing in multiple languages. And this is a version of a song done by another guy on that show, Rolf Sanchez. The drive and passion she puts into her version is something else.
    As other people have stated, her version of Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort is also on another level. You're spoiled for choice, lol.
    From her own channel though, her cover of the Frozen song "Let It Go" is also quite enchanting.

    Beste Zangers 2019: Floor was first up to sing in this series, almost nobody knew her or what she was capable of, then she started of the series with “Vilja Lied” (Vilja’s Song) sung for Henk. Jaws dropped, everyone looked at each other and were like “are you hearing this?”

    Hey does Floor makes you cry? It's the healing touch by the goddess of course. She makes grown up Metal Guys crying like babies. 😉 Funfact to the song: Lady Gaga heard her version (it went viral) and congratulated her for her version.
    If you need more tears: After all she went through (exhausting tour,the pandemic and her cancer diagnosis) she sang sleeping sun and bursted out in tears ( i thought it was in Amsterdam?). And when Floor cries, we cry.
    I'm happy you found her and you are already under her spell. Go and check out when she and Henk Poort (the dutch Phantom of the Opera and by Webber the best one) performed The Phantom of the Opera live after many years with Nightwish.
    Also: Check out Floors Husbands Band Sabaton. They are great too. And for Tuomas Musical genius to be shown: All the Works of Nature Which Adorn the World (2nd part of the human:nature album) and Auri (Tuomas, his wife and Troy) or his solo stuff. There is so much to explore 😍

    The show is a group of artists performing each other song or song related to them. Most songs have a bit of background to the artist being sung for. If you get the longer versions it has the artists chatting, it comes with subtitles. The songs suddenly add even more emotion.
