Well, infact they both didn't had to get into "character". Henk Poort was Floors idol since she was 12 and also is Henk a great fan of Floor. So when they 2 came together to sing this song, Floor went in fully fangirl mode. And Henk is a character who can push a singer to their limits even a Floor Jansen. So they 2 didn't play the characters, they were the characters. Thats the reason why this masterpiece appears on this little stage.
if you have ever seen the play, they were in character. Its important to remember Henk played the Phantom for years in the Netherlands. He is a master of that role.
@@thtadthtshldntbe not only the phantom he did les miserable too. I meant the chemistry between Floor and Henk is nearly the same as like the chemistry between the characters in Phantom of the Opera.
As I've said in other videos of yours, and I'll say it again here, the world would be a better place if everyone just sat for a moment and watched music with you... especially anything with Floor Jansen singing. Her voice could bring world peace if everyone would just listen
Henk Poort was the original Phantom of the Opera in the Dutch version back in the early 90's and Andrew Loyd Webber himself said that Henk was one of the best ever to play that role. He impressed a lot of people with his performance, including a very young Floor Jansen.
Some of us did/do. But most of the Dutch didn't. But finally after (forever 😉) all those years the peeps in our country who didn't knew Floor before will never ever forget her now after this years De Beste Zangers ! 💪🏻💪🏻🇳🇱🤘🏻🤘🏻
I'm Dutch, 51 years old, and indeed never heard of Floor (and Nightwish) before this show. Now i don't listen to anything else anymore. No words to describe her greatness. I cry everytime i hear her singing.
She's just phenomenal. And Henk, first time performing that in a more metal style, after all his years doing it in a pure opera style. Great for both of them, great performance. Floor is unmatched in this world though!!
This song is a masterpiece, a showcase of true musicianship. And if you really think about it, it was the most risky choice on the entire show. Why you ask? well quite simple, this is THAT song, the nightwish army, 100.000's of them, have been wishing for, ever since Floor joined Nightwish. And when the rumor started, that the song would be "The Phantom of the Opera" the hype started to grow, and grow and grow, and then it was announced that indeed "The Phantom" was going to done, the hype exploded. And therein lies the risk, hype is a poison, hype is deadly, hype raises our expectations to unreachable levels, basically, we're dumbasses fooling ourselves, everytime we buy into the hype of anything. So we all went it with expectations of greatness, excellence and perfection.... And they still topped ALL we expected, for once in a life time, the hype was understated..... not only did they give us perfection, they pretty much stopped the universe for the duration of that song... The perfect ending, to a perfect season, of a perfect show with a perfect cast of singers... thnx for the great reaction :D
I didn't know you reacted to this! You have no idea how happy you just made me🤣this performance fills me with awe and joy every time I watch it and seeing you love it for the first time made my day❤
All of Floor's performances on beste zangers are knockouts. It would be great to see you react to them all hut also all the other singers on this show are great as well. Definitely worth the reactions!
I loved that " nope nope nope...we goin back to hear that again..." First time i watched this performance, i went back and watched it a few more times, its just that good.
There are many, many great singers who may never be appreciated by the masses. Maybe because they sing in a language besides English, or maybe because they only sing in the shower (with the water running or not). But Floor Jansen is the best of this time. From Phantom to Nightwish to O mio babbino caro (Puccini) and don't forget Beste Zangers. Her voice is an international treasure. Experiment and have fun?!!!
Great reaction. Floor requested this duet with Henk, and he agreed on the condition that when Nightwish next visits the Netherlands he’d get to perform with them. Floor said yes of course but it hasn’t been confirmed officially to my knowledge, fingers crossed though.
liquidminds Henk will definitely sing in Floor’s 9 soloshows in january/february 2020 in The Netherlands. She promised Henk Amsterdam november 2020 with Nightwish, but the rest of the band would have a vote. But who can resist Floor? Not even Tuomas I think 😄 It will be epic!
They now need to do a new modernized version of Phantom of the Opera, but in a Symphonic Metal sound & vibe with these two as the stars! It would sell out wherever they play? I would pay Top dollar to see these two perform Phantom!!!
Loved your reaction! It was alot like my own. This was beyond epic. Both of them did a marvelous job. It was like watching musical theater up close and personal. Beautifully done Jamel_AKA_Jamal!
The show has no comparison to anything in the US. They invite a guest to the show who is famous for a song or performance. They then invite artists to sing the song(s) the guest is famous for or made famous and are judged and critiqued for their performance by the guest and the panel (others seated). Henk Poort actually played the part of "The Phantom" on stage for many many years and because the song was a duet, he elected to perform with Floor. Floor is the definition of a consummate performer. She engages not only the audience but immerses herself "in character" and really sells it.
😍💞Thats my woman right there,best there ever has been!😍💞 And thats common for her,to make it seem like shes not even trying. Imagine when shes really struggling.....DAYMN!
Man, if I had been there on that couch they'd have needed a mop to get me off the stage after listening to Floor. I'm increasingly convinced, she could level the first three rows of the audience if she wanted to.
That was better than I imagined, yes it was better even though all the hype usually is the kiss of death. Not here, Floor and her idol, Henk nailed this one, it is like Webber wrote this just for them (and I love Sarah Brightman's version but this, this was insane). If they had costumes and the dark cavern set you would swear you were watching the stage show!!!Now that was the grand finale to this grand show, and it will be missed as everyone on this show have been great and a shout-out to the studio band that has done songs from many different genres and sounded great doing it!!! Great reaction and the pros on the couches confirm your reaction and evaluation despite all the expectations after 8 weeks with Floor that had to stand and clap for both her and Henk and their masterpiece performance.
@@hansmuller5935 WHAT!!! If you are correct that is even more insane! She did all 8 songs in different genres and different languages. I would swear that there is not enough time to pick the songs, learn them with the band and perform them..if you are right then Floor has ascended to level of Jedi Master as that is really insane!!

I think that preparations has been done before the show.
Jamel, this is so beautiful ! Henk's voice is perfect with Floor. Since l've heard this a couple days ago, l can't get it out of my head, and as always with Floor, l get goosebumps hearing her. So nice to share this with you brother.
Henk actually played the role of Erik for a living for a while back in the 90s, originating the role in the Netherlands. I've seen quite a few bootlegs and he remains one of the most intense versions of the character I've ever seen.
The word of the day here is "chemistry." I won't get into the details of Floor and Henk's backgrounds because it's been said repeatedly in previous comments. But those backgrounds explain the chemistry the two of them have. That said.... From 3:56 onward, I began to feel a bit like a peeping tom. It started to feel like by continuing to watch, I was interrupting something. And full disclosure, I loved it.
What I’m the most sad about is just in the past week discovering the amazing female singer Floor Jensen and the group she’s in Nightwish 🤙 but my god this video is beyond amazing. So happy this beautiful lady has this gift full voice 🌹❤️😎
I watched your reaction to Nightwish Ghost Love Score with Floor, than Phantom of The Opera with Tarja and now this one. You made me cry of emotion to see you got so much touched by it and was so beautiful to watch. Thank you for this video. This is the beauty of internet . In real life we would never know each other, probably you would never know Floor and this kind of music, but in a mysterious way you got it, I watched you watching it. I felt like showing this amazing band and these 2 amazing singers to a friend and watch his reaction, a friend I never saw before. Beautiful to watch!
I love how they jump up at the end like their football team just scored. lol But it's kinda how it feels, now I think about it. Like omg she fucking did it! #Floorgasm
I have always loved The Phantom of the Opera. I remember back in my 20's, back in late 80's, maybe early 90's , stuck in rush hour traffic in Charlotte NC, in my convertable LeBaron , me and 3 other buddies, dressed in heavy metal attire , top down, phantom blaring turned up to 11 in the car, all of us jamming. Needless to say, we got some strange looks lol.
I love both performances but I do think Tarja and Marko on this one are unreachable. Also, taking in consideration they sang a complete concert before their performance in front of 20,000 people

Henk Poort IS the Phantom. He stood for years in this classic musical and in my opinion he is the best phantom worldwide.

From the same show - Henk and Emma and Floor and Tim might be something you'd enjoy.

Every song she did on the show was very different; every one was phenomenal. Best female singer on the planet.
That was an eight second D6 note at the end... dayumn...
And delivered with full Floor force too
As the Nightwish Army like to say...
Queen to D6, checkmate!
I have seen this performance so many times and still enjoy it every time. Love this so much.

Henk Poort was the first dutchman to play the phantom in the musical back in the 1990's. he is one of the best opera singers to play the part

I think Travel or Waking Hour would be good choices for The Gathering reaction... Or Anneke doing the stripped-down version of Amity.
Travel is my favorite, maybe Learn about it or Broken Glass (Live MTV)
Floor and Marco, the bass player from Nightwish doing Ave Maria.
Check that out! She’s not the only great singer in that band.

This song "USED" to be owned by Tarja in Nightwish... I think Floor took over that ownership along with Henk with mastery!
