Watch Floor from 2018 in a side project called Northward. The song is called while love died. You'll love it!
Floor Jansen has been "having fun" ever since she was in her first band, After Forever, making covers of some songs from the international repertoire (Bad Romance / Lady Gaga, Alone / Heart, Who Want To Live Forever / Queen) but in the TV show Beste Zamgers 2019 (in which each of the 7 singers sing covers from the others' repertoire, or songs with personal meaning for them) Floor has reached a new level. She was not well known until then in her own country, where metal is considered underground music, although she had a successful international career of more than 2 decades. After this televised show, Floor's popularity exploded in her country, so she was able to support a chain of sold-out solo concerts at the beginning of 2020. Then followed the lockdown period, without the possibility of performing in public, and Floor did then for the fans a set of 9 covers from her home studio that she published on her YT channel. In this context, the idea of a solo career was refined, and Floor decided that her new songs would not be rock or metal. Floor explains all this at length in her April 2022 interview for Chaoszine ruclips.net/video/iCeci20Xt9c/видео.html
Theres a clip of Floor actually singing the phone book at an interview and its awesome
you mean this one : ruclips.net/video/jcMJ-gfqd8k/видео.html .

She looks unexistable!.. Perfection.
Hello from the Netherlands .
you MUST watch the Nightwish documentary is : please learn the setlist in 48 hours .
I continue to consider that whole story a great achievement in itself .
she got a call from Nightwish at her sister 's wedding , going home packing bags , a 3-3.5 hour plane to America ,
and then learning the 15 songs from an existing album that you 've never even heard before ! .
thanks for the video .
Sincerely, Hollandduck
She just Performed this on NPO RADIO 2.....amazing , shes better live .
Always better live. It's crazy!
Yesss!! live ALWAYS better and the NPO version was AWESOME
@@crazykaletrucker Didn't really enjoy that particular one. It had much too much echo in it. Not Floor's fault.
Live is always so much better. I saw that performance, it was fantastic live.
It's a great presentation
"Decades in the sun' A Nightwish song, never performed by NW life, but sung by Floor a Amsterdam.
The moral is: almost all singers sing what they can, Floor sings what she wants ;-)
i like that!
Floor has no ceiling. She has released 3 recent solo songs, all of which are more of a pop genre. She wrote the first of them, Fire, but not this one nor Storm. These are not her lyrics. She plans to release a solo album in March, before recording the next album with Nightwish in the summer, which is already in the works. She also recorded and and released some cover songs recorded at her home studio during the pandemic, my favorite of which is M83’s Oblivion. Keep exploring more Floor and Nightwish!
You should also check out the 7 songs floor did in beste zangers 2019 totalie different kinds of music
Most singer sing what he/she can. Floor sing whatever she wish😀
Floor sings in 8 languages, understands 5, speaks fluently in 3 and when she sings in English, you hear them all bleed together slightly. When she sings a song in a foreign language, she tries to get it as perfect as possible, understanding exactly what the lyrics are trying to convey, and as empathetic as she is, when she puts everything together, we get chills, goosebumps, misty eyes.....and tears.
Her german in Sing meinen Song is amazing. Long talkings in german .And later in the documentary. Absolut stunning.
Welke talen
that's amazing and beautiful!!
ja!!
@@D.jansen199 she speaks fluently Dutch, English and Swedish, also German, a bit of French, and sings in Spanish and Latin and Finnish, that - to her sadness - she isn't able to speak well, but she can understand and read it.
Her version of Let it Go from the Disney movie Frozen. An absolute must see and hear.
everything this woman touches turns to gold just like this song and video
I have a problem....I fall in FLOOVE❤
One of the things I like about this song (among many other things) is that she uses her low register more than usual, and I really love her lowcregister.
She can also add just a little "cry" into the first part of a syllable (maybe that's what you were describing). She's a master at doing those little touches that add so much emotion.
Although a metalhead at heart, she is now exploring another style all of her own. In terms of genre, I classify it as "Floor genre".
very well said! yes, that cry! i like it. it's nice to see her tap into that too.
Floor has the ability to do vocally do anything. She has honed her voice to literally go any direction with it. The song was already written by a guy she is working with, he thought it would be good for her, and she agreed. She loves her husband and Nightwish with all her heart, she made that clear for us her fans.
I don't know about her being able to do anything. Don't get me wrong - she has an amazing range and versatility - but I don't see her doing something like Beth Hart. I'm sure she could do her own interpretation of it. They are both powerful singers - but they are different. That's what makes music so great though - there just isn't a be all end all in any genre.
@@JohnSheehan72 You need to check out more Floor past and present. I have never heard her attempt at Blues, but just like anything else I ever heard her attempt, bet she would kill it. Do you think Beth Hart could go full Opera or full Metal Queen in the same song line? Floor can.
Slow love slow has a bluesy bar room vibe
@@mdudley52 Yeah, I would put it more in the Jazz category, but Floor killed it. I learned long ago not to say what Floor can't do vocally, because then she will and shock you once again. I have just never heard her attempt any style or genre that she did not sound like she was totally comfortable in.
Hi Allen
She is touring with Nightwish until January . She has European solo dates this Spring . Her new album coming out in March of 23. She did 9 solo dates in 2020 and sold out in hours. This summer recording another Nightwish album. You must see her solo stuff from Best Of Zangers 2019 . It's a dutch music variety show.
Another great reaction Rosalie. I am following your Nightwish journey and really enjoy it. Also, I agree with Gabriel Bardac about the Beste Zangers 2019 show. You will see Floor's versatility, and you will have an even deeper appreciation for what she can do with her voice. Keep enjoying your journey.
Maybe look at "How's the heart" accoustic together with Troy.
Cannot believe you haven’t reacted yet to Floor’s version of Lady Gaga’s ‘Shallow’!?
I tear up every time a here her love this style from her she can't do nothing wrong she is a powerhouse beautiful song and lyrics
Floor Jansen sings from the phone book Live and unprepared on the Dutch national radio: ruclips.net/video/jcMJ-gfqd8k/видео.html
She has 3 amazing singles so far as well as several awesome covers.
And more will follow, to be released next year as an album. That'll be in my collection the same day!
@@NickBR57 same :-) and I have tickets for her solo show !
@@bettymajoor You lucky person! [insert envy emoji here]
She is an spinto soprano🤟🏻🤟🏻🎶🎶
My god! Floor can sing any style and genre and just nails it every time.She is absolutely incredible.I really hope she makes a speedy recovery from the big C.The world would be a poorer place without her.Love and best wishes to Floor,her family and friends.
Floor is oke now. She's 100% clean, from what i've read. No more 'nasty things' in her body that don't belong there. So happy for her!
@@anaguq4651 That's really good to know.Thank you.
Look up her covers on her own YT channel. And her cover of 'shallow'. You'll be surprised!
Excellent call with Alanis Morrisette and you're right, can't put a finger on why.
Wow, love your reactions, you should definitely react to ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010) - Floor's previous band
I don’t think you would know her, but to me the song that sounds like something Alannah Myles would sing.
Floor said in an interview that it is not about her own relationship ( she is married to Hannes the drummer of Sabaton). Her relationship with Hannes is very good. Nice review btw.
Hmmh, she thinking to Sander 🤔Wonderful Song.
@@ralfmeyer9086 I believe you're right Ralf.
@@BrendonChase_2015 It was my first meaning when i hear it the first. Everybody from us, had the (fuck, it is isto tricky for me in english). Deine erste grosse Liebe, und wenn sie ended. Vergisst du niemals. .und Floor zeigt dir das. Greetings from Dümmer See in the Netherlands 🤘🤘
@@ralfmeyer9086 Ja genau, die erste Liebe und Trennungsschmerz in Musik verwandelt.

very cool reaction thanks!
Love your reaction with analysis. Very well done. We really like your appreciation to Floor as a singer and person. She is totally amazing. Stay safe.
A palavra para Floor é versatilidade.
you will find the further you go down the metal road that some of the world's best female vocalist are in metal...enjoy. ROCK ON!
Queen Floor Is Pure Perfection.
You Must See More From Her...
Every Song Is Unique And Magic.
Blow your Mind!!
By Floor's own admission she is a Metal-head. Metal is her life long favorite type of music but she does like to challenge herself with new things. If she is going to sing metal she would do that with Nightwish if she is going to sing on her own she will do something else. It is like if someone is a baker & they already work for the best pretzel maker in the world but they want to do some baking on their own they would not make pretzels they would make something else, like cupcakes.
Floor Jansen took part in a Dutch program "De Beste zangers" in 2019, there she sang songs, in her own way, for other artists who participated in the program.
One of the absolute toppers was the duet with Henk Poort "The phantom of the opera" She also sang the cover "shallow" in a pretty intense way.
Maybe they are interesting for you to see and listen. All the video's are on youtube
Check out Floor singing that song live just two days ago. She adds a little more grit in places. ruclips.net/video/vGdTeyeDMr0/видео.html
Filmed at home with Hannes behind camera they say 🤗😎❤️🇧🇻
Terrific Reaction!! Rosalie, there are so many Reactors out there now, but you stand out. Love your energy and emotion. ...New SUB... coming from a real pro, your analysis helps us regular folk better appreciate a singer's skills.
Thank you very much! :)
Wow, that one went by super fast! Full disclosure: played the final part of your analysis at 0.75 speed, so that I could enjoy your enthusiasm just a bit longer, haha. So ty Rosalie, for another great reaction. Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘
:) I dust did that, listened again her final speech at 0.75. She's a quick speaker :))
@@gabriel.bardac Great to hear I'm not the only one, haha. Thought I might be a slooow listener 😂 Cheers Gab!
Hello Rosalie
Great reaction tx, you should also listen and react to Floor jansen together with Henk Poort singing The phantom of the opera in program called "Beste Zangers 2019", it is absolutely amazing.
greetings from Holland
Marcel
Apart from Nightwish which you already like, please check out Floors covers she did in lockdown and the tv show Beste Zangers, you wont be disappointed
Love the colourful shirt!
Floor excelling again.
Feee-Eel,
Truu-Uth.
Her own style, hope it's discovered by more people.
Video shot by Hannes, with the graphical lyrics on screen, the talented drummer and husband :)
Yes, I hear a bit of Alanis, with Shania.
Oh, Me, without you (Nightwish?), could be, a double meaning, cool.
Thank you :) it’s an heirloom from my German grandma. Oh yes good call. Didn’t think of shania
I highly recommend checking out Ramstein(spelling) probably one of the only groups I can honestly say you have to watch both the official music video and the official live performance for all of their songs.
😁
Just Brilliant 💜 ...thanks for Your reaction girl 👌🔥🌺🦁🙏🏼
Hope you have a great day Rosalie thank you for your reaction 😊👍
thank you very much :) same to you.
You're absolutely right. I hear some Alanis nuances also.
If you want to know what Floor can do with her voice check out "Floor Jansen life in Amsterdam " full concert .
She fits in in Nightwish like any member of the band. In that she has her own creativity. But the music comes first! She explores herself in her own music. And there is a strong connection to her own country and her family. The Pink Pop festival in the Netherlands was especialy important to her. She had her own performance separate to that with Nightwish. In that order she was more the dog and later on the wolf. Speaking of fitting in!
Great message. Fantastic vocals.
You should try her with Northward "When love dies". I think I got the title right? Love your reaction.
Close - it's "While Love Died".
Floors voice is an instrument, she has mastered.
Floor is the greatest vocalist I have ever heard and I love Ian Gillan (Deep Purple) Ozzy (Black Sabbath) and Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden)/ Floor is a different level. Emotion
Fire and Storm.. don't know witch one of these two I like the most. 👌
Floor began her metal career when she was 16-17 years old, as the lead singer for After Forever. Nightwish fired their 2nd lead singer, Annette Olsen, in 2012, and they asked Floor to join them as a stand-in to finish out their road tour. The band members immediately clicked with her personality and more metal style and the rest is history. Oddly enough, Floor was also good friends with Tarja, the first Nightwish lead singer (also fired).. She has a young daughter with husband, Hannes, who is the drummer for Sabaton. A simple pleasure - In a RUclips session with Tarja, the singers expressed the belief that after reaching the 40 year old gold post, they both felt they had earned the right to ditch their high heels. Floor agreed to participate in a Dutch TV show called Beste Zangers (Best Singers) in 2019 when she found out that her Phantom of the Opera idol, Henk Poorte, was also going to participate. Through her signing experiences on Beste Zangers, a show where the participants sing tribute songs in honor of each other, Floor discovered that she likes to experiment with other music genres, similar in vein to how actors like to hone their skills by taking on diverse roles.
Anette Olzon
I believe she is classified as a dramatic soprano.
I enjoyed your take on this song. She is such a metal Valkyrie Goddess on the Nightwish stage. Floor is such a sweet person off stage from what I can tell from the outside wife, mother, professional musician, singer/vocalist, performer, and entrepreneur business person. You may or may not knit she has two tattoos one under each ear: a Wolf and a Domesticated Dog.
Floor enjoys her family but she very serious about her professional work. While the lock down was great for connecting with her family including her horses and dog she still worked on her craft during this time. I mean just listening to Floor’s voice is a wonderful blend of natural music talent and work developing her voice over the years since she started singing. I enjoyed your reaction and analysis.
If you’re liking this, then you might want to take a look at her rendition of Lady Gaga’s “Shallow” (from Beste Zangers show) or Heart’s “Alone”..
She gives both songs a new dimension (especially Shallow), and in both songs she’s also accompanied by minimal music which let’s you really enjoy and appreciate her voice..
Thx for this meaningfull and in-depth Recap, learned some Things from This:)
What really makes me sad, just thinking, you would probably never listened to Her, when there werent some Recons from Nightwish. She deserves really some Rotation on Radio, compared to what scream to me, when i drive nowadays in the car with mainstream Station turned on.
But would never happen, no big Producer and Distributor in Charge, so she will stay Niche , if no Coincedence comes along.
Stay Healthy
NWA Bavaria North
very glad you liked it :) true def. not mainstream, but that's why i love focusing on world music so much. so many treasures out there
Floor writes great songs that connect as she is an empath. I believe she uses herself as the backing vocals for this song. Thank you for another great reaction.
She didn’t write this. Her friend gave it to her because it didn’t work for him.
Thanks
hey Rosalie check mal floors Solo schow live in Amsterdam . Dort singt sie . Songs von After foever ihrer 1 Band Von Revamp . Und auch Songs von Nightwish . 🤘😁
Highly recommend you watch her video of doing a cover of Alone. It is based of the Heart version of the song. I also reccomend he doing Shallow at Beste Zangers
That is a great analysis! It certainly can be interpreted like that! She did say not to worry because she didn’t had any issues with her husband 😂. But she didn’t mentioned anything else about the meaning of the song. Because art is so personal, for the artists and for the audience, I think we can interpret it like that! ❤
You should listen to Floor sing the Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort. He has performed extensively with phantom and I saw that during an interview he said that he specifically changed up some of his singing style with Phantom in order to match with Floor. For him to do that I think speaks volumes on his acknowledgment of Floor and her style and ability.
only one word: FLOORGASM
The video was shot and edited by Hannes, Floor's husband. If Sabaton ever tanks, I think he could make an excellent living doing music videos.
Congratulations on 23K Rose!!!!!
Thank you!! :)
Her husband shot this video in their home studio. She is just a Soprano. She has the ability or control to sing in a wide range of highs and lows. From growls to opera. Practice makes perfect and she is the living example. Enjoyed your reaction. Thanks! I think you reading too much into the lyrics. This is a break up song pure and simple.
Live even better🎶🎶🤟🏻🤟🏻
As much as I admire Floor's talent and skill as a singer, and I do, I don't much care for her recent compositions. They're not bad, they're just sort of ordinary. I wouldn't put them on my personal playlist. Please keep in mind, folks, that I'm not saying Floor is an ordinary singer. I don't believe that for a minute. I'm just saying these ordinary songs are not the best vehicle for her extraordinary voice.
Each to their own. Me I love them all.
Same here. I love Floor but these solo songs just isn't for me 🤷🏼♀️ Same with Marko's and Anette's solo stuff. But that's ok, I don't have to love everything they put out.
agreed. oddly, i really enjoyed her covers on zangers and most of those songs were 'ordinary songs' as well but it was the little tweaks in her delivery which gave them such great emotional depth. i don't think its the music. so far her solo work seems like an expression of her technical proficiency. this might be subconscious: and is over embellishing vocally due to the 'simplistic' song structures. i was in tears when the first note came out of her mouth on the German version of the show. i have yet to be overwhelmed with any of her singles. my thesis could be completely wrong, but something is missing.
I liked Storm a lot!
Link live-video of this song (at "NPO RADIO 2"): ruclips.net/video/vGdTeyeDMr0/видео.html
The live version from Dutch NPO Radio 2 on RUclips is also really good 🙂
Did you notice how the emotion progresses through out the song from sadness to relief and happiness.
@victorbradshaw, thank you very much for your super sticker today!!! :) I see you. i appreciate you. Hope you see this.
Would love to hear Floor cover "You Oughta Know ". Enjoyed it , thank you. Look forward to your next reaction. Be well.
That would be awesome!
Floor wrote another breakup song called "While Love Died" back in 2018 with Jorn Viggo Lofstad of Pagan's Mind for their Northward project. More straightforward rock, and more rage than sadness. Well worth a look: ruclips.net/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/видео.html
Johannes Oerding reinterpreted the song for her appearance on Sing Meinen Song, and it's surprisingly touching: ruclips.net/video/jXEKOZO5_mc/видео.html
a fine 007 song!
This song and elements in the voice do remind me of Ilse de Lange also a Dutch singer (country)
I think your interpretation is spot on. It is also I think a message to her fans who did not appreciate her going "pop" (like me). I've changed my position slightly and start to appreciate her pop songs too
thank you. I def. love when people aren't afraid to enjoy the various genres.
There are moments that remind me of Melissa Eldridge in here and there's also moments where I'm getting Beth Gibbons vibes, from Portishead 🙂
You want powerhouse? Try Floor's Rock project called Northward - When Love Died. Otherwise great reaction, welcome to Nightwish community 😊
Rosalie, hello just found your channel. I like your reactions very much! I saw you did Lara Fabian adagio. Floor has her own version of adagio!
Floor is a Highly Sensitive Person or HSP. She's sort of an Empath. Her husband Hannes filmed this video. He's the drummer of the band Sabaton. Sabaton always does songs about War and War Heroes.I think you checkout her solo concerts. She's been a professional singer since she was 16.She had a bad breakup with a fellow bandmate with her band After Forever. I Love Floor and she's beautiful inside and out
its her first time , afther 25 years metal .
Floor can sing anything she wants and make you believe and Feel the meaning of the song. In an interview she even sang part of a Dutch phone book beautifully. You need to hear her singing on Beste Zangers or Sing Meinen Song, her version of Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poorte is simply stunning
Floor reminds me sometimes of Wilson Sisters from Heart (should check out her version of alone) or even elements of Stevie Nicks
please react to Nightwish: yours is an empty hope. You will see another side of floor I love her growls. also Romanticide is a beautiful song.
Another great reaction today from you! Great job and this is one song of hers I haven't heard yet too. I hope you manage to hear her sing "phantom of the opera" (Both versions) sometime close to Halloween too, it's ridiculously good.
👍😁👍
I like that you did this I love Floor Jansen and she is so good and I like her powerful voice and the fact that she is singing from her heart about herself in her own way she has wanted to be a solo artist for a long time but had the fear that she couldnt do it then she got with NightWish and has been so good and has her family and she has just decided that she is going to try and do it now I watched her biography video it was very enlightning as to who she is I think it does have to do with there is a me besides in nightwish anyways she is just a great singer in any genre thanks for the ride today it was fun as always your ride or die forever EYYOOOOOOOO
oh neat. I'm looking forward to exploring more behind-the-scenes interviews with various artists and getting to know them personally so to speak
You should check out Anett Olsons stuff after she left nightwish. So many good songs.
As you said you like the diversity of Floor and her voice… maybe you could try the Nightwish song: Shoemaker (there is a really good official music & lyrics video) - normally I would always suggest the live versions, but this one is really good. Before you do the reaction take a quick look to the life of Eugene Shoemaker (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Merle_Shoemaker) - it’s really necessary to know who Shoemaker was…
Thank you very much for your very good analysing but also passionately reactions. Floor Jansen had another project on her own called Northward, it's a rock-projekt. Maybe you like to check out "while love died" (it's awsome!). This is another song about a love-relationship, that got broken in a bitter way. Maybe "me without you" deals with the same story of her life.
Hi Rosalie, nice reaction! Pls check her performance at Beste zangers. A Dutch show. You will love it!
I wouldn't have thought of Alanis, but as soon as you said it, I know exactly the sound you're talking about. I'm no expert on the mechanics of voice, but it sounds (feels?) like there's quite a lot of back space. Maybe that's just because I'm imagining trying to imitate it.
right? agreed! that's a good point
No,she is a Dramatic Colorartura Soprano according by a opera singer.
If you want to explore more of the Goddess, you should do Revamp, the songs Disdain or Wildcard or earlier After Forever, the song 🎵 Monolith of Doubt 😇😇
Hail Floor!,Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and Empathy 😇 ✨ 😍
Side note: Nightwish comes first, solo career second 🤘🤘🤘
I think you will like these videos :
this is from before Nightwish !
if you want to hear 100% pure Floor volume and purity at its best you MUST watch and hear this : Floor Jansen & Red Limo String Quartet : Energize Me (Live acoustic 2009) .
No Mic, No audio amplification, No audio tricks, just 100% pure Floor Jansen volume and clarity.

this video was recorded in her home studio during the corona Lockdown
Floor has stated she has been in a metal band since she was 16, with After Forever, Revamp and now Nightwish for the last 10 years. She also stated that this song is definitely not about her own relationship. I believe she could sing any genre of music well though, don’t know about rapping. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
