Who else could do that for a metal crowd ?
... Therion, Haggard ...
Thanks to being immersed in (good) metal I started appreciating classical music more as there is actually a very fine line between the genres in terms of composition, complexity etc.
Rhapsody of fire,,,(formerly Rhapsody)
That is how you get a metal crowd silent, and how , Floor and Simone together :D
That's why i love the Metal crowd they appreciate good music.
Good music is good music no matter what.
Within the Metal scene every music genre is accepted.
Absolutely agree with you 🤘🤘🤘
This is how you mesmerize a couple of thousand metal heads. Absolutely wonderfull ..... Geweldig
Love the way this huge hall full of metalheads go totally silent.
I can imagine that this was a surprise for the audience, but I just LOVE the openness of the metal community and their appreciation for fine music, no matter the style. Simone was confident her audience would just settle down and absorb the beautiful music. There's always a couple of outliers, of course, but those people are far and away the exception.
Not metal. Not Epica or Nightwish. But two of my favorite singers in a beautiful duet. Two friends just singing together. The metal loving crowd loves this. Thank you for this reaction.
Metal has its roots in classic music, so this was perfect.
Metalheads are one of the most openminded people you will ever meet. Where some people only ear noise and shooting, they skip the intricacy and complexity of this genre. When we take bands like Epica and Nightwish, then you even add more and more layers to this complexity we all love to soak up.
Metal people are, contrary to mainstream opinion, cool.and able to appreciate fantastic music regardless of the style as Randall Morris writes - Kudos to Floor and Simone, both are so talented. And, consider this: Simone was 3 month pregnant at the time of this 3+ hours concert!
Simone 🌹 + Floor 🌹 = big Art 👏🖤
Simone doing the soprano part with such ease..amazing👌👌
Metal heads subjected to this and loving it! Enough said! Floor and Simone can break barriers for sure! Goddesses of Music indeed!
It takes great courage and massive talent to pull off a baroque period duet in a metal show...
It is truly amazing how these ladies and these bands are exposing metal crowds to super gorgeous classical elements and exquisite operatic arias. Beautiful music is just beautiful music. So great!
Couldn't agree more!
People, this is 13th century. Sung by two metal singers... at a metal concert. Holy f..k. Remember, this is LIVE, no voice enhancers, just two excellent (maybe the best) singers around.
I have to say it... I just found a video of a 'new talent' a few days ago, 23M views in a weeks time and she can't even hold a note.... WTF???!!!
Quick clarification - only the lyrics are 13th century. The music is from 1736, written by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi.
@@martinwillfor1416 I don't think there was an orchestra available in the 13th century, LOL. 🤘😂 But there were Gregorian chants those days, but not a lot of written down scripts. So maybe??
This is Pergolesi s stabat mater written for his own death in 1736 in the late baroque era it's a style of sacred music like oratorios or messe des morts so check what you say....
Previously in the concert they also did a metal version of Vivaldi's Summer with guitar and violin, they go really deep when it comes to mixing with classical music lol
It's nice that with Floor they did this first and later down she came back for Sancta Terra "unexpectedly" to rock out with the full band
Notice that Floor took the lower part of the duet allowing Simone to show her strength in the higher brighter part. A good friend does that. Floors lower register is as good as her upper register and she demonstrates that in the Nightwish song Song of Myself. If you haven't reacted to that you might find it interesting to explore her lower register.
Just as a matter of interest for you-- "Stabat mater dolorosa" is of course Latin. Comes from the opening phrase of the hymn...
Stabat Mater dolorósa
iuxta crucem lacrimósa,
dum pendébat Fílius
(Stood the Mother of Sorrows
in tears at the Cross
on which the Son hung.)
I thin they could've done the whole piece, 40-45 minutes, and no one in the audience would've complained. This was just the first verse, there's 16-17 more to go. It's a 13the century poem that has been put to music several times over the centuries, this version is from the 18th century.
I'm a Nightwish fan and love Epica, so when you the two lead singers combined Floor and Simone you create heaven for me. I just found a group that you really got to listening for, the called Eluveitie and than the song Rebirth, it will surprise you.
2 girl friends💕💕 from The Netherlands🥰
Soooo Good🙋🏼♀️😘🇳🇱
How can you go wrong with 2 such wonderful singers, Simone and Floor. Beautiful vocals. Thanks for the neat reaction.
You just can't, they are phenomenal 🙂🤘
Sung in Latin and Floor of course can also sing in a lot of other languages.
Together Floor and Simone are epic. .😊😊😊
Epica kingdom of heaven prt 3 the antediluvian universe will blow your mind. Gutar solo and listen to the drummer
Two dutch goddesses...🤘 stay safe and healthy all over the world... Greetings from Germany
And imagine that Floor, despite being a soprano, sang the alto role with power.
Fantastic performance. And what a support act from Floor. In progressive music (metal/rock) you can expect anything.
Cant get more metal than 2 monster female singers singing and Italian opera during a metal concert...
If you ever need a way to describe what the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel looked like to a blind person, its this
Brilliant ❤❤❤
What i love about Floor's classical voice is that it is NEVER shrill, in contrast to all other female (metal) soprano's i know off. An angel peeing liquid gold into the ears.
How can you speak about angels and not mention Simone :)
It's Simone's voice that's been sooo many times described as angelic and ethereal by so many fans and vocal coaches.
Just listen to this... OMFG ruclips.net/video/vmtlpgq0EeU/видео.html
Both of their voices are just mesmerizing. They are so talented.
@@SongsandThongs And both are the loves of my life... at least Platonic loves.
Guys, would you like to react to the song from the musical Cats that I posted above? Or you've already watched it?
It's from 2004 Epica session called "We Will Take You With Us".
Simone was only 19 y.o. girl (she's now 36) but I totally love her voice. Funny thing, Simone now doesn't like her young voice, she said she can't listen to it. She has improved her technique over years, her voice changed a bit after a serious MRSA infection she had in 2008 and then after her pregnancy, but many fans, including myself, are in love with this young Simone's voice.
And what a nice bonus that she also looks so gorgeous :) Just pick any random interview with her and see: ruclips.net/video/m0raDzHA7Jo/видео.html
You probably prefer some heavier metal songs, don't you? :) But if you're ever in a mood for some wonderful ballads, Epica will not disappoint you. Especially these acoustic songs are pure beauty.
great reaction! this whole show is really good from start to end More Epica!
I can imagine this being a moment of rest between all the symphonic metal ^_-
Its reminds me about "Band of brothers" when they sitting in the church and remember their fallen brothers
I think it is great to have a song there that represents the SYMPHONIC part in as far as this sub-genre is concerned. And while Floor was never a member of Epica, she used to be a member of another band in which everybody in Epica was involved, at least, for some time, expept for the keyboardist Coen. The band (or a supergroup) is called MaYaN and it is basically Epica put on its head as the heavier (death metal) side is more dominant. There are up to five vocalists in some tracks. There is some fan footage from the time when Floor was in it. And yes, that Kingdom of Heaven part 3 is a wild, but beautiful ride.
And they silenced all metal fans. Not Nightwish, huh? Still Floor and Simone. Wonderful ladies. 😍
Two friends just doing what they do best....
MORE EPICA PLS. Maybe Design Your Universe (Retrospect)
I would be willing to bet this is the first time a fair majority of the audience has ever heard any classical music live...or maybe any classical music at all.
And that's how you get people interested and intrigued.
I don't really think so, in my opinion there are many metalheads who like classical music.
For the next Epica track, how about experiencing the epic Prog Metal side of Epica? with this 13 minute metal masterpiece, this is a song from their new album 'Omega', a fan (stargazer) has already made a fantastic animated lyric video, on their youtube channel:
Epica - Kingdom of Heaven Part 3 - The Antediluvian Universe (+ lyrics)
Yes!!! 🔥🔥🔥
There is video from 2010, when Floor was with ReVamp ,of her and Simone doing a song called Sweet Curse. ReVamp was touring with Epica at the time the video is fire.
I love them singing together. Listen Sancta Terra, they r amazing singing this song.
A RUclips channel that features Simone & Floor (apparently) randomly showing up at Starbucks, McDonald's, etc. and recording the reactions of the people to their placing orders in their singing voices? 100,000 subs overnight.
My Dad - 'All of these singers nowadays would be lost on a proper opera stage'. Me, plays this for my Dad to listen to. Dad goes very quiet. Nice one Simone and Floor!!!
Floor and Simone were room mates once. I heard Floor tell that they would open their windows on warm summer nights and blast this song all over the neighborhood.
@Songs and Thongs You might also like this insight,
I found it from way back:
ruclips.net/video/LjvXo5GRvxI/видео.html
@@gillandianyt3920 Yep I know the video. Imagine living next door!!
This happened if the two best female singer come together.
Sta bat ma ter dol o ro sa = latin is easy to pronounce, no silent vowels at all.
It means "sorrowful mother standing" , referring to the Mary. This is a 16th century Catholic, Marian hymn. You'll hear it in Mass on Marian feast days often
I'd like Mr. Bieber do this in a concert... If a bunch of metalheads can listen without a sound that - why would not a hall full of hormone filled teens would not? 😁
Tres cool folks. There aren't too many reactionaries who actually do this performance, and always a treat when they do. Well done again, love your passion and enthusiasm!
This is an ancient Catholic hymn. It is usually sung during lent. It is about the Mournful Mother at the cross.
What an incredible duo they are. And what a song for the middle of a metal concert. Imagine someone like Beyonce doing a song like this in the middle of her set.... NOT
This particular song is about Jesus mother (Mary) following the last walk of Christ after the judgment, and flogging, He carries His cross to the place of execution... the road is called the Dolorosa, and how her heart is broken for the loss of her baby, even though she understands why. It's truly an inspirational song, even when sung in Latin. Keep up the magnificent content.
Thanks so much and thanks for sharing this bit of info 🙂
@@SongsandThongs You are quite welcome. I forgot to add that Simone was pregnant also, if you hadn't noticed...
Music from 1736, by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. Lyrics are a 13th century hymn.
Great reaction two stunning voices loved it keep them reactions coming 🤘🤘
We have here in Holland not only Floortje or Simone, but also Sharon from Within Temptation ❣️also very good 🤟🏻
Yep as metal as one can get. :)
As with all music, I was transported .... so beautiful. I have loved classical almost as long as I’ve loved metal. Also as always, I enjoyed your reaction ❤️ You both rock!! 🤘😎🤘
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this before but I also really enjoy the intro/outro music to your videos!! I’m assuming that it is done by Harry? If so, very well done sir!! Can’t wait until the next video! I will keep watching for the same reason you keep making them, “for the love of music”❤️
.... and thongs 😉 Much love! MTFBWY
Awww thanks again for such an awesome comment. You Rock 🤘🤘
The intro/ outro of music is actually sound tracks that we purchased specifically for our channel 🙂🙂 We will put out a video again soon. Stay safe and be blessed!
You notice how captivated the metal fans were in Europe they appreciate true music
Magic! Your faces said more than words!
My Queen doing one of her casual mass healing sessions!
Who says that you don't get any culture conveyed in a metal concert?
Floor Jansen ❤️😇
Ahhh my friday fix of my fav channel.....cheers again....you guys rock !!! :-)
Now that is a pair to draw too.......shall we ay EPIC......
You'll stop drooling in a bit, hahaha
😂😂😂
Stabat Mater Dolorosa ( pronounced "Stahbot Mahtear Dolorosa" ) = "Stood the Mother, full of grief" ---- the hymn describing the Virgin Mary's sorrow at Jesus's crucifixion........Pergolesi knew he was dying ( at age 26 ) as he completed the piece.......originally composed for 1 soprano voice, 1 alto voice and a 4 piece chamber accompaniment.....and, of course, sung in Latin.....well known in the classical repetoire
Hi guys. I hope you will react to an other Dutch metal band :: Evergrey with In Orbit featuring Floor Jansen
Thanks for the recommendation. We love Floor so will definitely at this to our list 😁😁🙂🙂🤘
I absolutely support random operatic outbreaks at coffee houses! We used to have here a number of F&B purveyors that routinely tossed in some of that joyous wonder...I'm recalling a couple of the Lettuce Entertain You properties in Chicago once't upon a time years ago...I truly miss those days! I mean, if your server isn't including a micro-aria with your appetizers you're probably not dining properly?!?
You two said all that needn't be said. Those two fast friends sing all that one needs to understand our world. That's not to say that I don't appreciate your commentary...'cause I do! More a matter of how we measure our experience in this world. We should probably endeavor to reclaim those moments, yes?
That said, please continue your efforts in the hope that others will revert to a more fully appreciated manner of living! Cheers 🤘
Now you gotta check out Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show.
Just amazing. Goddesses!
Same show
Nightwish and Epica are my 2 favourite bands, the are both EPIC. Please listen also to Epica - Kingdom of Heaven part 3, it will blow your mind !!!
Written 1736 by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi.
Of course there was a return engagement when Simone joined Revamp on stage, it is a fan cam but the quality is pretty good. ruclips.net/video/xmYzLIB6OjU/видео.html
Love !!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤩🤩
There is a great video on RUclips with Tatiana from Jinjer singing karaoke which might be worth looking for!
Ooooeee that sounds interesting, we will have to check it out 🙂
Prachtig😍
"Epiflogasm" Somehow that sounds like it should be the brand name for some kind of emergency medical equipment your friend needs to give you if you're having anaphylactic shock. Hmmm, come to think of it, I've seen a lot of Americans who look like they're going into anaphylactic shock the first time they are exposed to Nightwish! ;)
a mini flash mob .. of two
Can you imagine singers like Lady Gaga being more famous than these two?
Let a modern pop singer take on (in this order): Stabat Mater Dolorosa, Ghost Love Score, Yours is an empty hope, The poet and the pendulem.
And I'm not even including the covers Floor did, or her presecne in the show "Beste Zangers".....
Tides of time also
I'd like to see Harry do this song with his woman by his side.
That might be entertaining to witness. 😂😂
Lorna Shora - Immortal
Watch out not fall from chair ;)
thanks floortje as in diminutive LOL
Oh I was wondering how it's spelled, thanks :)
Btw, what did Floor say to the conductor at the end?
@@cancelled_user "Prachtig " wonderfull /thank you
@@martinpe9tig aaaa OK. I heard "F" at the beginning, so I was wrong :)
@@cancelled_user Yep listen again it is "prachtig" in dutch aka thank you /wonderfull
Baie goed, do you speak Afrikaans?
Baie dankie 🙂 Ons praat inderdaad Afrikaans 🙂🙂
´Please react to "The Promise2 by Within Temptation from live dvd Black Symphony, you will enjoy this beautiful performance too. Greetings from Mexico
Thanks for the recommendation 🙂
Leave it to the Dutch to do the unexpected.
It has been a little while since you checked out a new Japanese band. This is the one that is blowing up now, don't miss them. Nemophila "Dissension" ruclips.net/video/26aMuahxz8c/видео.html We're talking Lovebites-level talent here, but let's just say their style is a bit different.
Check out Rammstein - Ich tu dir weh.
The song is about the sadness of Mother Mary because of her son's death (Jesus).
who said that metal's singers just yell ?
Everyone that doesn't listen to metal 😉😜
🤔 Well you didn't expect that did you...?
Definitely didn't but was so great. They are phenomenal 🙂🙂🤘🤘
@@SongsandThongs As a contrast you should do The essence of silence from Epica. I think you will like that a lot!!!! 😁
Bet that is the oldest song you've ever reacted to... 300 years old and still going strong
Ok, didn’t watch the Video. But I know what ist is. Just one word for you, because I didn’t like the title. „Foorgasmica“ sounds way cooler 😂😂
Floorgasmica does sound cool and you are allowed no to agree or like our title (we gonna stick with it though😜 ), that's what makes it fun 😉If we all liked or agreed to the same thing the world would be a boring place. Take care and stay safe 🤗🤗
