Henk Poort is the original Dutch Phantom. The arrangement is from the Nightwish version of the Phantom. Floor has had both musical theatre and operatic training as well as rock music training. She is quite comfortable in moving between styles. In "Shoemaker" for example, she goes 100% opera at the end. When you review "Ghost Love Score" make sure you use the Wacken 2013 version as it is the one with the best production values.
@@n5iln Yes, she's completely fangirling here singing this song with him. He agreed to do this duet with her on the condition that the next time Nightwish came to the netherlands that he's able to perform this onstage with her. That's a good video.

@@JenniferGlatzhofer let me suggest you a song from my country..............please react to Luce by Elisa...in my opinion one of the best italian songs ever...and i think very difficult to sing...but i'm not a vocal coach ....only a man who listen to music since 1977......
Everybody is requesting "Ghost Love Score" and this is a legimate claim to jump down the Nightwish (with Floor Jansen as the lead sing) - just FYI! in that amazing performance, you shall only uncover 30-40% of Floor's voice capacity - many singers sing what they can - Floor, if she feel the song, sings what she wants (any style)
There's a perfectly valid reason why you have not heard of Floor Jansen: Until this season of the show Beste Zangers, the bulk of the Netherlands had never heard of her! Floor is one of those who is bigger outside her home country, but rarely if known at all in her home country. She's a singer in a metal band, yes, but is classically trained, spent years in the conservatory, while Henk, is THE Phantom. He is Andrew Lloyd Webber's favorite Phantom out of all who have played that character. As everyone already mentioned, this arrangement of Phantom of the Opera is the arrangement that is found on Nightwish's 2002 album, Century Child. So you have the lead singer of Nightwish, performing the Nightwish arrangement of a song that Henk knows better than anyone on the planet outside of ALW, Sarah Brightman, and Michael Crawford. When Floor found out that her idol (Henk) was going to be on the show with her, she asked if she could perform this with him.. he agreed, on the condition that he would get to perform it when Nightwish tours through the Netherlands. That show is still on their schedule. As everyone has already mentioned to go down the rabbit hole that is Nightwish, I'll also request that you have a react to this entire season of Beste Zangers. If you search for Jenniezelf's channel, you'll find the episodes not only with English subtitles, but the commentary both before and after their performances. Start with Episode One, which features Henk on the center couch (where everyone else sings songs he's sang or has meaning in his life), and you'll see how they, and the entire Netherlands, were introduced to Floor.
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Floor also has had a massive crush for henk FOR YEARS! And this was their first time singing togeather so she went 100% fan girl as well haha xD
Evidently Floor has been a big fan of Henk's for years and years. She was totally stoked to be on this show with Henk. Henk learned (quickly) how to growl especially for Floor!!
@@Wotsefaqq I would say, the most iconical Nightwish songs are Elvenpath and Wishmaster. ;-) And I just wanted to say that there are so many reactions to GLS out there, it is getting a bit boring. To get familiar with Nightwish, it is ok for me, but there doesn't have to be more reaction videos. There are so many great bands that deserve more attention and I feel that Nightwish now has a lot of attention.
For me this is the Duet of the Century. Great acting and singing from both of these vocal titans. Their mutual chemistry is exceptional. Greetings from Finland! ⛄👍❄
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Haha! Henk Poort played the "Eric" role in the Dutch "Phantom" production for ages and my queen (💗) Floor Jansen is the lead singer for the world famous Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. She is the best selling Dutch artist of all time, i guess. So they are both very seasoned performers and it really shows there.
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Since you liked also the voice of Henk Poort, you should really also listen to Henk and Emma singing "Vivo per lei", that is really the hidden gem from the show that got a little lost under all the Floor hype.
Since Lara Fabian and Johnny Halliday "Requiem pour un fou" was the best duet of the last century... and the Leonard Cohen / Lily Collins "Suzanne" was also last century... There's a few to compete since. Floor and Tim Akkerman duet of "Shallow" show what a great songwriter Lady Gaga actually is. Same show as this, Beste Zangers. Maelle and Guulan "Fragile" was an astonishing duet, framed as a competition, they transcended it with a deeply moving collaboration of utterly opposite voices. Floor is in so many duets of note it's hard to pick just a few. With pregnant Simone Simons in "Sancta Terra". "valley of the Queens" with Marcela & Diane. Marko/Tarja Phantom also gets on the list. Jessie J has been in some great duets. So has Dimash. Of course. Too many to list.
nightwish army reporting in! that was wonderful reaction! I've seen literally more than 300 reaction/analysis of this and ghost love score and other songs Floor and nightwish have from all sorts of experts vocal coaches singers techs instrumentalists and so on and all of them had something new to say when saw this band perform. as a fan it only deepens my respect of how complex their technique and performance is. can't wait for you to meet Toumas and the rest of the band of geniuses that is nightwish
Welcome to FloorWorld. All performances of hers in this show were great. She sand in 4 different languages and she sang at least 5 different genre. Then she is producing solo performances during lockdown on her you tube channel. And of course Nightwish. Henk performance of the sound of silence on this show was great too. Once you do Ghost Love Score, your life will change :) Floor is the most versatile singer on the planet.
I think Ghost Love Score, Yours is an Empty Hope and Storytime show off Floors vocal range. Epica's Sancta Terra ft Floor, shows how well she can work with others
@@JenniferGlatzhofer another great performance to ad especially for a vocal analysis ,this is just Floor & Troy -multi instrumentalist Nightwish - How's The Heart Acoustic (Planet Rock acoustic session) ruclips.net/video/yYtkPpFYzOo/видео.html
All performances of Floor at Beste Zangers 2019 are really worth to see. Take the uploads by JennieZelf, which contain some context why the song is chosen.
Henk used distortion with his voice for the first time in his career to honor Floor being a Metal singer. This is wonderful. You should check out the rest of her performances on this show. All super!
Enjoyed your reaction and commentary. Looking forward to more Floor Jansen with Nightwish. Incredible singer and incredible band. The Wacken 2013 concert has the best video and sound as they were making a blu-ray of the concert. 😄🤘
Please check Henk Poort’s version of “Sound of Silence”. He sings it for Floor and it’s really amazing!!! As an opera singer Henk is not used to singing with metal techniques, but for this performance he practiced singing with distortion.
Gotta love how Floor just melts when Henk starts. I know it's acting but she really does love him and does her best to look smaller & coy. Shows the power dynamic of the characters.
Just wanted to say how happy i was that someone is actually making an effort to pronounce the names right. 2 seconds later you say you're half dutch. Makes more sense now :)) :)) Loved the reaction. Waiting to see more
So! You found Floor! Welcome to my subscription list! Also, so freaking refreshing to have a reactor with proper audio and video! And let me say you have such positive energy! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos!
Henk Poort added the vocal fry here especially for Floor, he’d never done it before, but Floor is that amazing he wanted to surprise her, and he did, she didn’t know it was going to happen.
Welcome to the rabbit hole, there is a lot what you can listen now, of cause everything from Nightwish, but I also can recommend every song from the show Beste Sangers. The Duett from Emma and Henk is incredible too. Have fun and enjoy the ride.
Floor idolized Henk, as she saw him at age 12 in the Dutch production of Phantom. That deep growly, metal voice was a complete surprise for Floor, as you can see by her expression. As you hear more of Floor, you will realize that she can sing anything at anytime. Someone once said that most singers sing the what they can, Floor sings what she wants.
I saw Henk Poort on the 10th anniversary of Las Miserable special on tv. The climax was bringing 50 singers from all over the world who had played John Van John-was incredible.
unknown to any of the other singers, Henk had been secretly practising the growl in his voice; so, when he did it, Floor was genuinely surprised, as were all the others.....
Really enjoyed your reaction and I can't wait until you hear Floor's work with Nightwish. She also has some amazing covers on her RUclips channel. Also last I'd like to add that she's also a vocal coach as well (she's not actively teaching students but she has been doing some vocal master class videos recently).
So you got your first Floorgasm before even hearing her perform with Nightwish! Can't wait for you to react to this band and her full vocal range! Yes, follow the Wacken 2013 Live concert starting with Ghost Love Score. The army will be coming soon to guide you on the entire journey, you will not be disappointed.
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Forgot something I think is important about her singing style to really get you motivated. During an interview with Floor, she said she is an empath and feels every song she performs, which is passed directly onto anyone listening/watching. There will be plenty of songs where you may need to keep tissues nearby. If you start with the Wacken 2013 concert, note that she was only with the band for 10 months but already had a very commanding stage presence as you will see. Also, all of the orchestra and choir parts you hear are real, recorded as backing tracks for their concerts.
Henk apparently learned to do those harsh vocals specially for this performance as a tribute to the version of the song that Nightwish does and you can tell how happy it makes Floor that one of her all time idols did that for her ☺️
Like your video. Great piece of music and fantastic presentation. Love Floor's face when Hank lets out the fierce tiger roar voice. Feels like his reference to Floor's metal side.
Love this song. Please react to Nightwish's live version. End on an era show with their former singer Tarja. You will fall off your chair hearing the male parts 😄
Jen....Great reaction, thank you. You like her singing nice, nice.....You gonna love it when you hear her with Nightwish ! The Nightwish Army will fill you in soon. Welcome to the world of NW, enjoy. P.S. Those goose bumps...That was your first ( of many ) Floorgsm.
With Floor Jansen you met in my humple opinion one of the best singer of our time. She said in a interview that she worked her ass off for her abilities that she is able to sing all the different stiles and with her perfect diction, pitch and insane breath control she stays for that you can reach everything when you work hard for it.
yeah, I like the version with Tarja better because of Marcos performance there. (and no, I don't think Tarja is better or worse than Floor, they are both great singers!)
I heard in other reaction video comments that Floor grew up idolizing Henk Poort as the Phantom and one of her dreams was to sing with him. Also that she taught Henk how to growl for this performance right here.
Floor has been a huge fan of Henk for years. Could you imagine getting to sing with one of the singers you’ve admired for so long? especially The Phantom 😱
Hi Jennifer! Great reaction! Next reaction, Ghost Love Score by Nightwish, live at Wacken 2013, with Floor, and you'll see what she can do! Watch the episodes of Beste Zanger 2019, take a look at Floor's RUclips channel, there are Master Classes and many covers, or better, save for more reactions! By the way, these goosebumps have a name, Floorgasm!!! Greetings from Brazil!!!
The most important things to remember when watching this performance: 1) Floor Jansen grew up idolizing Henk Poort. He's one of the reasons she got into singing 2) Henk was the Dutch Phantom. Literally. He played the Phantom in Dutch theater for multiple years. 3) Henk and Floor made an agreement to do this duet when Henk had only recently heard of Floor that month. She asked him to duet. 4) Floor Jansen is without a doubt the most talented current female vocalist, and arguably the best vocalist of all time
Henk went a bit out of his comfort zone for this, not to mention his sound of silence performance, watch Floor fangirling like a teen. We all know why and who he did it for.
Any song you choose, whether your own choice or recommendation (and you will get a LOT), will be a good one, as there is not a single bad song among the lot of them. Most people will recommend Ghost Love Score from Wacken 2013 (German music fest) and my own personal favorite is Song of Myself. My suggestion at the moment, since you just listened to this version, is to listen to Nightwish's version from 2005, with original singer Tarja ('tarya')
I know you will need Floor more more and more And I hear the Nightwish Army come with all request Welcome And enjoy your journey at Nightwish World with our Valkyrie Goddess, Floor. Greeting from Nightwish Army Indonesia
I was already wondering because of the way you pronounced both names. You pronounced them correctly and it sounded very Dutch. There’s a lot more from Floor in Beste Zangers. And the other singers are excellent too. Henk Poort was the Dutch phantom in the musical
There is nothing that Floor can't do. That's what makes her one of the best singers in the world. Not only can she do it all but she has this ability to make people feel. The goosebumps you got at the beginning is what we call a Floorgasm because whenever she sings she causes a feeling of ecstacy.
If you like this, it can be good to see the older version of this NW arrangement of this song "Nightwish - Phantom of the Opera( End of an Era)". Nightwish with a different singer, but you won't be disappointed, trust me. Not by the male nor the female part.
This song always gives me chills (since Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford immortalized it!) - and this version just adds to it! Floor & Henk - what a duo! Not going to repeat what so many others have said (he's the orig. Dutch Phantom, she's a metal singer, yadda yadda). What I didn't see recommended (although I haven't scanned all 500 comments) was Floor's version of Vilia Lied, from this same program Beste Zangers. She performed it for Henk when it was his 'day' to sit back - and it's beautiful! Sung in German - there is versions of the video with subtitles, which I recommend seeing! Floor is a magnificent songstress goddess!!
The distortion Henk added was a fun callback to his version of The Sound of Silence which he sang for Floor and had to learn to use distortion to be able to use it
I'm glad I found your reaction, and I'm always giddy when I find a new reaction to this performance, not only because I get to watch it again, but also because I know that the reactions themselves are usually filled with disbelief and wonder. I still get chills and to this date I think this is definitely among the top performances ever of this song. As a Nightwish fan since their origins in the mid 1990s, I will admit I am probably a little biased, but some voices are simply irresistible.
@@JenniferGlatzhofer ☺️ I'm sure others have said this before, but I will give you a little tongue-in-cheek warning, whenever you should delve into the musical magic that is Nightwish, you will wander on a poetic elvenpath of no return.
👏 Great Reaction. Your going to love discovering everything that Floor can do and Nightwish as well. NW - Song of Myself, Romantacide, & Ghost Love Score - Live at Wacken 2013. I Want My Tears Back & Dead Boys Poem - Live in Beunos Aires. Yours is an Empty Hope - Eirher live at Wembley stadium or Mexico City. Floor also teams up with Epica - Live Restrospect tour with a full choir, orchestra & metal band singing Sancta Terra . Enjoy!
this performance was the end of the season series "Best singers 2019". he started with the episode of Henk Poort on the couch and that Floor Jansen sang the "Vilia leid" in German for Henk. by the way Henk Poort WAS the ghost of the opera in the Netherlands from 1993 to "96
Henk was Floor inspiration when growing up. He sings The Sound of Silence for Floor, but does the band Disturbed version. Absolutely beautiful. Floor also does some other good songs during the Show. You should also check her out in the Band Nightwish Live at Wacken. Songs Ghost Love Score, Romanticide, Storytime
It is impossible to exhaust the talent of Floor. Beste Zangers, Nightwish, Revamp her own channel on RUclips doing covers. Everything from classical, to crooning, to rock, to metal growls. Through Nightwish, you can also meet Marko, which would be worth your time. For a study in contrasts, check out Floor and Marko together in Ghost River and Romanticide, then go to Ave Maria. Both have incredible talent and range. Enjoy the ride!
There is so much to learn about this performance. Henk Poort IS the Dutch Phantom He is Floor's hero since her childhood. Floor accepted to participate as soon she knew that Henk was there. Henk's distortion part, he learned how to distort without damage his vocal cords hours before the performance. The thunderstorm at the beginning wasn't intentional, it was raining that night.
Floor totally fangirling. Great to see her acti... well not really acting. She just feela that way with Henk Poort i think. Great video. Great song. Great reaction
A commenter named Gabriel will eventually come from the nightwish army (the name for the fans of the band) he will give you a back story on the band I’m sure he always does. But I’m super happy to see you enjoy her and look forward to seeing your mind be blown by the band and more of floor singing as well!
Henk Poort has been the Phantom in the Netherlands for quite a long time he also is one if not the favourite Phantom of A.L. Webber, he is a spectacular performer just as Floor is :)
Floor was a big fan of Henk (The Dutch Phantom) in her younger years. She was very excited to sing with him. This was the first time Henk with distortion (it's not done in his world) but he did it for Floor because she is the singer of the metal band Nightwish. The big tree epic Nightiwsh songs: Gost love score, The poet and the pendulum, Greatest show on earth. Only take the live versions, they are the best.
Great reaction from you 👍 Floor and Henk deliberately held the song down in rock vibes. Floor is the undisputed Metal Queen (as you will discover) and Henk was the European Phantom of the Opera. Henk had only once before used distortion in his voice, doing Sound of Silence for Floor in the same show - therefore at the ending of the show, they showed people they could switch roles - Floor opera and Henk metal. (Floor surprised everyone at these 7 episodes, not singing metal once - but everything else, just far better than the original!!) New sub and looking foreward to experience your journey into the Nightwish Universe - the phenomenal world of Symphonic and Metal mixed in a unique way. These 6 band members of Nightwish are the top of the top, from the composer Tuomas (Metal Mozart) to Floor, the greatest singer in the galaxy - and in between there are 2 more phenomenal singers (Marko and Troy), plus a phenomenal and disciplined drummer Jukka and later on Kai, matched by Emppu, the one and only guitar hero of the planet 🌏 A big welcome to you from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘
Sure it's been mentioned, but you really should react to floor as part of nightwish - unbelievable talent them all. Ghost love score is the best place to start. It'll be quite a journey!
Floor is classically trained, she has also been a vocal teacher for 15 years, she went to a rock academy and studied musical theater and opera she's been doing music for 24 years she's got a 5 octave vocal range
I think Floor wasn't very well known in the Netherlands either before being on this show. Hopefully this has now been rectified. Same goes for the internet. Her absolutely exploding on youtube react videos the last year or two has hopefully introduced her (and Nightwish) to a lot of new people
Watch the entire 2019 season of Beste Zangers. Everyone has to go out of their comfort zone quite a few times. The 8th/last episode is when everyone does duets. Henk also does Vivo per Lei with Emma (the hot blonde in the maroon dress).
I can't wait to listen to more of Floor Jansen! I understand Ghost Love Score - Nightwish is the next one to go to... very excited🧡
You have to watch the live version of Wacken 2013
watch her performances on "beste zangers" (like this), they are all worth it :) and of course nightwish AND her covers on her own channel
Watched a few of her RUclips covers - AMAZING!😍
@@JenniferGlatzhofer During this COVI-19 she has also done few Masterclass vids. She thought underlines, that findind a real, committing Vocal Coach if possible is important, which is truth. I use my voice mainly to scare dogs and teenagers 😄 But they are quite impressive and really not boring...
Yes, is "THE SONG" for you next reaction of Floor Jansen with Nightwish

Just wanted to say how happy i was that someone is actually making an effort to pronounce the names right. 2 seconds later you say you're half dutch. Makes more sense now :)) :)) Loved the reaction. Waiting to see more
Hahaha yay!! Aw thank you🙌🏼🧡
So! You found Floor!
Welcome to my subscription list!
Also, so freaking refreshing to have a reactor with proper audio and video!
And let me say you have such positive energy! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos!
Aw thank you!! 😊
Ditt you also seen sound of silence by Henk poort. From the same show... Goosebumps all over the freaking place
Floor is the swiss knife for singing, she literally can sing everything, yes from pure opera to dark growling.
Well she is no Tatiana when it comes to growling, but Floor is for sure one of the very best female vocalists ever.
Most singers sing what they can. Floor sings what she wants.
Henk Poort added the vocal fry here especially for Floor, he’d never done it before, but Floor is that amazing he wanted to surprise her, and he did, she didn’t know it was going to happen.
Welcome to the rabbit hole, there is a lot what you can listen now, of cause everything from Nightwish, but I also can recommend every song from the show Beste Sangers. The Duett from Emma and Henk is incredible too. Have fun and enjoy the ride.
Thanks! 🙌🏼
Floor idolized Henk, as she saw him at age 12 in the Dutch production of Phantom. That deep growly, metal voice was a complete surprise for Floor, as you can see by her expression. As you hear more of Floor, you will realize that she can sing anything at anytime. Someone once said that most singers sing the what they can, Floor sings what she wants.
Love that!
I saw Henk Poort on the 10th anniversary of Las Miserable special on tv. The climax was bringing 50 singers from all over the world who had played John Van John-was incredible.
unknown to any of the other singers, Henk had been secretly practising the growl in his voice; so, when he did it, Floor was genuinely surprised, as were all the others.....
You just felt your first #FLOORGASM !
Congratulations, my dear !
Oh. I see you have met the queen. Now you've done it. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.
I shall enjoy!🙌🏼🧡
Floor is not only vocally diverse... understatement. But a vocal coach as well.
Sincerely enjoyed your reaction to this song. Your facial expressions looked like a giddy school girl at her first boy band live concert. Loved it.
Ahaha definitely!!
Really enjoyed your reaction and I can't wait until you hear Floor's work with Nightwish. She also has some amazing covers on her RUclips channel. Also last I'd like to add that she's also a vocal coach as well (she's not actively teaching students but she has been doing some vocal master class videos recently).
I’ve seen that she’s been doing masterclasses, that’s awesome!!! Love that!! 😊
So you got your first Floorgasm before even hearing her perform with Nightwish! Can't wait for you to react to this band and her full vocal range! Yes, follow the Wacken 2013 Live concert starting with Ghost Love Score. The army will be coming soon to guide you on the entire journey, you will not be disappointed.
Hahaha seems that way!! Can’t wait! 🙌🏼🎉
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Forgot something I think is important about her singing style to really get you motivated. During an interview with Floor, she said she is an empath and feels every song she performs, which is passed directly onto anyone listening/watching. There will be plenty of songs where you may need to keep tissues nearby. If you start with the Wacken 2013 concert, note that she was only with the band for 10 months but already had a very commanding stage presence as you will see. Also, all of the orchestra and choir parts you hear are real, recorded as backing tracks for their concerts.
Ah wow!! Note taken, tissues will be near by!! Thanks🧡
Henk apparently learned to do those harsh vocals specially for this performance as a tribute to the version of the song that Nightwish does and you can tell how happy it makes Floor that one of her all time idols did that for her ☺️
your passion and soulful engagement is lovley!!
Like your video. Great piece of music and fantastic presentation. Love Floor's face when Hank lets out the fierce tiger roar voice. Feels like his reference to Floor's metal side.
Love this song. Please react to Nightwish's live version. End on an era show with their former singer Tarja. You will fall off your chair hearing the male parts 😄
Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013 will blow you away also Floor just released a cover song of "Adagio" this is so amazing
The goosebumps you got... That is what's called a "Floorgasm".
Floor's sister was interviewed and cutely mentioned as young 8 or 9 y/os this song was a staple at their house ( :
Jen....Great reaction, thank you. You like her singing nice, nice.....You gonna love it when you hear her with Nightwish ! The Nightwish Army will fill you in soon. Welcome to the world of NW, enjoy. P.S. Those goose bumps...That was your first ( of many ) Floorgsm.
Thank you!!! 😊
Instant Floorgasms. Thank you, Jennifer, Goddess Floor Jansen. God, help us, mere mortals.
Henk is one of Floor's idols. She was so happy to get to sing a more "metal" version with him.
More Floor Jansen please, and be excited, because Henk Poort will be with her on stage with Nightwish this year in November.
Ah amazing!!
Great job lovely lady! Peace. 😊🎶🎶🎶✌
Thank you! 😊
With Floor Jansen you met in my humple opinion one of the best singer of our time. She said in a interview that she worked her ass off for her abilities that she is able to sing all the different stiles and with her perfect diction, pitch and insane breath control she stays for that you can reach everything when you work hard for it.
You can tell she works hard! Amazing! 😊
I saw Miss Floor Jansen Queen of Metal and Uncle Henk and click on 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" official live with Floor and Nightwish "Phantom of the Opera" live with Tarja
yeah, I like the version with Tarja better because of Marcos performance there. (and no, I don't think Tarja is better or worse than Floor, they are both great singers!)
I heard in other reaction video comments that Floor grew up idolizing Henk Poort as the Phantom and one of her dreams was to sing with him. Also that she taught Henk how to growl for this performance right here.
Floor has been a huge fan of Henk for years. Could you imagine getting to sing with one of the singers you’ve admired for so long? especially The Phantom 😱
Ah it’s incredible!!! 😍
Hi Jennifer! Great reaction! Next reaction, Ghost Love Score by Nightwish, live at Wacken 2013, with Floor, and you'll see what she can do! Watch the episodes of Beste Zanger 2019, take a look at Floor's RUclips channel, there are Master Classes and many covers, or better, save for more reactions! By the way, these goosebumps have a name, Floorgasm!!! Greetings from Brazil!!!
Hahaha love the name! Thank you so much 🙌🏼🧡
Great reaction....next stop...NIGHTWISH! Go on, take the journey, you won't regret it. 👍🎙
Thank you!!😊
Yes very Much Rock. You have seen the comments. Floor is a metal Valkyrie Goddess.
Nightwish. Many reactions.
The most important things to remember when watching this performance:
1) Floor Jansen grew up idolizing Henk Poort. He's one of the reasons she got into singing
2) Henk was the Dutch Phantom. Literally. He played the Phantom in Dutch theater for multiple years.
3) Henk and Floor made an agreement to do this duet when Henk had only recently heard of Floor that month. She asked him to duet.
4) Floor Jansen is without a doubt the most talented current female vocalist, and arguably the best vocalist of all time
Henk went a bit out of his comfort zone for this, not to mention his sound of silence performance, watch Floor fangirling like a teen. We all know why and who he did it for.
How did I miss this reaction? Glad I was able to come back and watch.
Yay!
Your just scratching the surface of how amazing Floors voice is. Nightwish is an awesome journey.
Any song you choose, whether your own choice or recommendation (and you will get a LOT), will be a good one, as there is not a single bad song among the lot of them. Most people will recommend Ghost Love Score from Wacken 2013 (German music fest) and my own personal favorite is Song of Myself. My suggestion at the moment, since you just listened to this version, is to listen to Nightwish's version from 2005, with original singer Tarja ('tarya')
Thank you!! Looking forward to watching more!! 🙌🏼
I saw them perform this live. Straight up goosebumps! It was also the only song that no one sang along and just let the performers do their thing.
Beautiful with true emotion ❤ 💖
Thank you! Just to mention: Mrs Jansen can do with her voice everything she wants to. Closest analogue is Buckethead and his guitar ) Bless you!
I know you will need Floor more more and more
And I hear the Nightwish Army come with all request
Welcome
And enjoy your journey at Nightwish World with our Valkyrie Goddess, Floor.
Greeting from Nightwish Army Indonesia
Great stuff. Grew up on theatre and this brings me way back
Ok more floor and nightwish please also the nightwish version of this from the end of an era concert. You wont be disappointed I promise.
Amazing! Thank you 😊
@@JenniferGlatzhofer note: the 2005 End of an Era concert has Nightwish's original singer, Tarja Turunen.
Henk was reportedly Andrew Lloyd Webber's favorite Phantom, which I can understand, the man has a powerhouse voice. Floor is always good!
I was already wondering because of the way you pronounced both names. You pronounced them correctly and it sounded very Dutch.
There’s a lot more from Floor in Beste Zangers. And the other singers are excellent too.
Henk Poort was the Dutch phantom in the musical
Ah thank you!!
There is nothing that Floor can't do. That's what makes her one of the best singers in the world. Not only can she do it all but she has this ability to make people feel. The goosebumps you got at the beginning is what we call a Floorgasm because whenever she sings she causes a feeling of ecstacy.
If you like this, it can be good to see the older version of this NW arrangement of this song "Nightwish - Phantom of the Opera( End of an Era)". Nightwish with a different singer, but you won't be disappointed, trust me. Not by the male nor the female part.
Floor Jansens performances in this show are excellent, also she has released some covers on her own you tube channel as well.
and Brace Yourself , for the Nightwish ARMY Invasion ! :)
Gabriel, Will be here in a second After you post the Ghost love score reaction... Nightwish army incoming...
The way that you pronounced both their names off the bat was 🤌👌🤌
This song always gives me chills (since Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford immortalized it!) - and this version just adds to it! Floor & Henk - what a duo! Not going to repeat what so many others have said (he's the orig. Dutch Phantom, she's a metal singer, yadda yadda). What I didn't see recommended (although I haven't scanned all 500 comments) was Floor's version of Vilia Lied, from this same program Beste Zangers. She performed it for Henk when it was his 'day' to sit back - and it's beautiful! Sung in German - there is versions of the video with subtitles, which I recommend seeing! Floor is a magnificent songstress goddess!!
The distortion Henk added was a fun callback to his version of The Sound of Silence which he sang for Floor and had to learn to use distortion to be able to use it
This is one of the best performances ever!!!
Should listen to her latest Nightwish tracks, especially Shoemaker.
I recommend Valley of the Queens by Ayreon (the live Universe show) which has Floor, Anneke van Giersbergen, and Marcela Bovio singing in harmony.
I'm glad I found your reaction, and I'm always giddy when I find a new reaction to this performance, not only because I get to watch it again, but also because I know that the reactions themselves are usually filled with disbelief and wonder. I still get chills and to this date I think this is definitely among the top performances ever of this song. As a Nightwish fan since their origins in the mid 1990s, I will admit I am probably a little biased, but some voices are simply irresistible.
Ahaha love this!!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer ☺️ I'm sure others have said this before, but I will give you a little tongue-in-cheek warning, whenever you should delve into the musical magic that is Nightwish, you will wander on a poetic elvenpath of no return.
Nightwish - Ever Dream (Wacken 2013)
Nightwish - Storytime (Wacken 2013)
NIGHTWISH - The Phantom Of The Opera (OFFICIAL LIVE)
I love the video!! 🥰 They sing so wonderfully 😍😍
They really do! 🥰
👏 Great Reaction.
Your going to love discovering everything that Floor can do and Nightwish as well.
NW - Song of Myself, Romantacide, & Ghost Love Score - Live at Wacken 2013.
I Want My Tears Back & Dead Boys Poem - Live in Beunos Aires.
Yours is an Empty Hope - Eirher live at Wembley stadium or Mexico City.
Floor also teams up with Epica - Live Restrospect tour with a full choir, orchestra & metal band singing Sancta Terra .
Enjoy!
this performance was the end of the season series "Best singers 2019".
he started with the episode of Henk Poort on the couch and that Floor Jansen sang the "Vilia leid" in German for Henk.
by the way Henk Poort WAS the ghost of the opera in the Netherlands from 1993 to "96
Henk was Floor inspiration when growing up. He sings The Sound of Silence for Floor, but does the band Disturbed version. Absolutely beautiful. Floor also does some other good songs during the Show. You should also check her out in the Band Nightwish Live at Wacken. Songs Ghost Love Score, Romanticide, Storytime
"Ghost Love Score" by Nightwish (live Wacken 2013)
If you play it....THEY....will come.
It is impossible to exhaust the talent of Floor. Beste Zangers, Nightwish, Revamp her own channel on RUclips doing covers. Everything from classical, to crooning, to rock, to metal growls. Through Nightwish, you can also meet Marko, which would be worth your time. For a study in contrasts, check out Floor and Marko together in Ghost River and Romanticide, then go to Ave Maria. Both have incredible talent and range. Enjoy the ride!
There is so much to learn about this performance.
Henk Poort IS the Dutch Phantom
He is Floor's hero since her childhood.
Floor accepted to participate as soon she knew that Henk was there.
Henk's distortion part, he learned how to distort without damage his vocal cords hours before the performance.
The thunderstorm at the beginning wasn't intentional, it was raining that night.
Floor totally fangirling. Great to see her acti... well not really acting. She just feela that way with Henk Poort i think. Great video. Great song. Great reaction
I love the " I am speechless" at the mild bit. Takes another handful of popcorn, and awaits the firewoks...
😂😂 ahah thanks!!
A commenter named Gabriel will eventually come from the nightwish army (the name for the fans of the band) he will give you a back story on the band I’m sure he always does. But I’m super happy to see you enjoy her and look forward to seeing your mind be blown by the band and more of floor singing as well!
Ah lovely!!😊
Henk Poort has been the Phantom in the Netherlands for quite a long time he also is one if not the favourite Phantom of A.L. Webber, he is a spectacular performer just as Floor is :)
Since this program the two of them have sung this together on stage a number of times.
Floor is truly a Goddess. Love the channel. Love the reaction
Floor was a big fan of Henk (The Dutch Phantom) in her younger years. She was very excited to sing with him. This was the first time Henk with distortion (it's not done in his world) but he did it for Floor because she is the singer of the metal band Nightwish. The big tree epic Nightiwsh songs: Gost love score, The poet and the pendulum, Greatest show on earth. Only take the live versions, they are the best.
Great reaction from you 👍
Floor and Henk deliberately held the song down in rock vibes.
Floor is the undisputed Metal Queen (as you will discover) and Henk was the European Phantom of the Opera. Henk had only once before used distortion in his voice, doing Sound of Silence for Floor in the same show - therefore at the ending of the show, they showed people they could switch roles - Floor opera and Henk metal. (Floor surprised everyone at these 7 episodes, not singing metal once - but everything else, just far better than the original!!)
New sub and looking foreward to experience your journey into the Nightwish Universe - the phenomenal world of Symphonic and Metal mixed in a unique way. These 6 band members of Nightwish are the top of the top, from the composer Tuomas (Metal Mozart) to Floor, the greatest singer in the galaxy - and in between there are 2 more phenomenal singers (Marko and Troy), plus a phenomenal and disciplined drummer Jukka and later on Kai, matched by Emppu, the one and only guitar hero of the planet 🌏
A big welcome to you from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘
Sure it's been mentioned, but you really should react to floor as part of nightwish - unbelievable talent them all. Ghost love score is the best place to start. It'll be quite a journey!
Floor is classically trained, she has also been a vocal teacher for 15 years, she went to a rock academy and studied musical theater and opera she's been doing music for 24 years she's got a 5 octave vocal range
She did several covers on The Zinger show and did a marvelous job of each one...
I think Floor wasn't very well known in the Netherlands either before being on this show. Hopefully this has now been rectified. Same goes for the internet. Her absolutely exploding on youtube react videos the last year or two has hopefully introduced her (and Nightwish) to a lot of new people
Nightwish Army checking in. Your reaction just showed up on my radar...
Watch the entire 2019 season of Beste Zangers. Everyone has to go out of their comfort zone quite a few times. The 8th/last episode is when everyone does duets. Henk also does Vivo per Lei with Emma (the hot blonde in the maroon dress).
