    Such a tragic loss when Freddie passed. But, imagine if Floor and Freddie got together. A match made in heaven! It would have broke the internet! I think you would have got through a box of tissues!
    Always enjoy your reactions. They are so heartfelt.
    There is an amazing song that doesn’t get the exposure that it deserves and I think you would love it. It’s Soilwork featuring Floor Jansen “Let This River Flow”. Love for you to do a reaction to it.

    Stunning mix of two of the greatest voices in popular music. Who wants to live forever always had, for me anyway, a poignancy about it, now all the more so since Freddie's passing. Freddie could not only belt out the power, he could be incredibly tender in his performances, for example, Those were the days of our lives. Talk about a performance which gets you in the feels! Sadly, we will never get to hear this live, but this is a great mix. Kudos to the producers. Floor's vocals drag you in, instantly, but when Freddie's vocals come in, goosebumps and tears. In interview after interview, when Floor has been asked who she would love to duet with, she always replies, instantly, Freddie Mercury.

    It is unfortunate that Freddie & Floor's lives didn't over lap enough to make this a reality. Think Floor was 10 years old when Freddie passed.

    • @TaverenTech
      @TaverenTech Рік тому +9

      I think Adam Lambert has done a fine job of carrying that band on a bit longer. We have a lot to be thankful from Floor... The world became a better place when she joined Nightwish.... and she has finally achieved the success and acceptance (even in Netherlands) she fully deserves.

    Floor's part in this song is actually a recording from her After Forever days - I think they might have issued it on an After Forever EP - the song was featured as a theme song to the movie "The Highlander"

    @isaiahwelch8066 Рік тому +1

    @JyngerSlapz: I'm just saying, if Floor had been born in 1966, she may have actually sung for Queen. And had that actually happened, it would have been one of the most iconic duets to have ever sung into a mic.
    Nobody, and I mean nobody, can change my mind about this.
    Edit: I almost forgot to mention: It is a bittersweet irony that a song that asks, "Who wants to live forever?" does exactly that, immortalizing two amazing vocalists for all time -- thus, answering the question, that they will live forever.

    I love Nightwish and Floor since After Forever and Freddy Mercury was great, but for me the very best rendition of this song is Queen - ft. Adam Lambert in the Isle of Wright concert, the day after and dedicated to the victims of the shooting at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
    Roger Tayler commented later in a documentary that he had never heard it like that.

    Hello Jynger! If you thought this was something you want to listen to the version of it sung by Tommy Johannson, the lead guitarist of Sabaton. I don’t think you’ve been turned on to him yet in his absolutely amazing power vocals he does it cover every week for about a year now and he has been blowing up the Internet hundreds of reactors dropping their jaws at him.

    Same here J, that picture at the end kills me. The song also makes me so emotional anyway and with Floor, well what can I say. Floor was asked if she could sing with annyone who would it be and of course she said Freddie Been a Queen fan since I heard Bohemian Rhapsody in 1975 but not now without Freddie.

    I saw Queen when they headlined at a concert in a castle (Cardiff, Wales, UK) back in 1976. Queen were a great 70's Rock band (with a revival after the Live Aid gig in the 80's) and Freddie was a magnificent vocalist who puts a lot of emotion into his live version of this song of theirs. Gotta admit, don't really 'get' why this cover/mash-up/mix with another vocalist edited over Freddie was made but I do know she's admired for her vocals by a lot of people.

    In terms of stage presence and charisma Floor is a reincarnated Freddie. It is no surprise at all that Floor apparently wishes she could have sung with Fred. Floor guesting with Queen, or Fred guesting with Nightwish would have fantastic. Your liking of Nightwish, your liking of Queen your wish that Floor and Fred could have sung together.............are you my long lost sister?

    I am probably not going to be popular here. While she is a great singer, she did not really fit in here, I'm an old school Queen fan, and she was a we bit to theatrical in the wrong places. Freddie is measured here, given the theme of the song, that is important.

    • @ulrikealtmann4655

      You're right, I feel it the same way, her voice does not fit this special song. Way too dramatic....
      But when Freddie starts singing, oh boy, shivers immediately running down my spine. I just love his voice and Queen since 1975. He is the only singer on the planet who has this effect on me.
