In my opinion she is a great vocalist, she has a huge vocal spectrum, she is a great performer being cheerful most of the time and the most important thing is that she feels what she's doing, she's enjoying, she sometimes get emotional on stage and doesnt hold it in which is great. True artist in my opinion and with Tuomas' great and genius ideas I think she's a perfect fit for Nightwish! Got nothing to say about Tuomas, words are not much to be honest, his whole existence is a masterpiece. Such a magnificent band!
Very good interview. You need to give Floor space to talk and share her inner world including visions on the human world. That's what you did here, well done.
Disagree! She ist not the NEW queen, she has been for a long time time but most people out there didn't realise until Floor joined Nightwish and got a bigger audience. Floor has been around for many many years. After Forever, ReVamp, many guest appearances with bands like Ayreon/Star One, Mayan just to name a few... And she is the one who brought Nightwish to a total new level! Even before Anett, Nightwish was going to get a boring with Tarja doin'... well just opera. With Floor as singer, Nightwish is more Rock and Metal than it was ever before. Just love her voice since I first saw her live with Star One back in 2002.
I love what she said at the end. She isn't bashing Muslims, saying they are evil. She is talking about extremists, and the issues that are happening and she is right that we shouldn't listen to everything the media or our politicians say on this and that we should be more open minded. She is a wonderful person. Rock on Floor.
Aligor Zeimet indeed, as a critic of religion myself I can confirm that the problem is far from being over once you utter the words "Muslims are bad". Quite the contrary: this is such a sophisticated and complex problem that the solution to seems to be lost aeons ago. We could talk about how extremists are bad, and how Islam gives them the nutrient soil to prosper. And indeed we may talk about how Islam - like all monotheistic religions - can be interpreted both good and bad (which is why I'd advocate for not following scriptural morality) But the thing we all tend to forget is that the people most suffering from extremists are Muslims themselves. Look at Saudi Arabia! Iran! Pakistan! Since the terrorist attacks last year, all of Islam has been painted with the terrorist-brush, whereas this is simply not true. The solution, it seems, is education.
I respect how she has a reasonable view on the situation without being judgmental and bigoted. she hopes things will settle down for everyone and the bad extremist would go away. I am a big fan of Nightwish. Floor voice bring tears to my eyes. and as someone who fled the Syrian war back in 2013, I love her even more for knowing that, in her sleepless nights, she has her mind on what we've been through and hopes the world would find a solution.
There are still some old grumps who never understood bands are bigger than their singular parts. They will never approve of anyone else than Tarja but luckily most of us know better. To me the band is complete now. The synergy is better than ever and you can see it in everything. Floor healed the band and the band healed her.
The noise in the back was kind of annoying but it was a great interview overall. She's not only an amazing, beautiful and versatile singer, she's an inspiration since she overcomed personal issues, come back and now she's at the top of the metal scene. It's been like 15 years since the first time I heard her in After Forever and Ayreon. I'm still in love. ❤
Such an impressive human being , Incredibly talented , great work ethic , humble , intelligent , gorgeous, great sense of humor , classy.... the whole package .
I went to a nightwish concert (for the first time, and it was fucking awesome) in the netherlands just 5 days after the attack in the bataclan club. I was really nervous while waiting outside with all the police driving and walking around with their weapons. During the show there were fireworks and by the loudest bang you could see everyone was scared for a moment. I'll never forget this show...
She is such a down to earth person. I love her, shes a new vocalist on my favourite list and top on my female symphonic/operatic vocalists. She is so classy for a metalhead.
''She is such a down to earth person'' That's practically imbedded in the genes of us Dutch people, that's why we have this saying ''Doe normaal, dan doe je al gek genoeg'' Find the explanation yourself.
great interview where floor really gets the time for her answers and i love it that she mentions anneke (van giersbergen) from the gathering (and skin from skunk anansie) as inspirations....
I love the thing you said! there are rotten apples there. It doesn't mean it is all of them. I have a muslim friend who says people blame her for attacks and call her a terrorist. Actually the people who claim they are Muslim and do this stuff fake they are muslim. Thank u for clarifying.
@@janetgulz3877 They do? That is awful 🙁 Poor her. Unfortunately, it is like this in many places still 😔 That is exactly what Floor talked about, hoping that people will become more openminded and not blame an entire People for something the rotten apples do. Ps: good to hear you have a Muslim friend. I always like it when different people (as in origin, religion, lifestyles and so on) befriend each other. That is the openmindness that needs to increase! And I can imagine some interesting and educational conversations can insure that way too 😊
@@10animallover10 Thank you!! You are very caring and I appreciate it. I agree with you. I like to have friends from a diffrent origin, religion, and lifestyle who are happy and care for everyone.
They talked about inspiring singers, and she named Skin from Skunk Anansie, Anneke van Giesbergen from The Gathering and Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy.
Just waiting and Hoping for new Revamp to be honest, Endless Forms Most Beautiful was pretty boring and too safe for me though there where some very good moments I loved. The first time I saw Floor with Nightwish did give me chills and The older songs sung by her are my favorite versions.
Unfortunately, not video captions translated into the Czech language (or in another) and not far from the whole world will understand spoken English - so-that this should you improve ...
Right, not too long ago there was a 'language' invented trying to the same thing: Make it possible to understand each other without connotations to history. It is called Esperanto. For now, English is easiest language to learn, and the most widely spoken in the 'Western' world. Were you born in China you at least you would have two languages to choose from, Mandarin and Cantonese. Learn both and you can understand 11.9 percent of the world's population. Hungarian is spoken by 0.164 percent, which makes it 77th place in ranking. Even Romanian is spoke by more people, it comes in at 50th place. Czech, branch in the language tree Indo-European Balto-Slavic, is spoken by 0.139 percent. In general, grouped together by language family, Mandarin is the most spoken language worldwide, native speakers in million 935 in 2007.
This interviewer has not done his homework. Why is he sitting there asking when albums come out and wasting this woman's time? He should look that stuff up and actually ask useful questions about the music. And mispronouncing Tuomas's name? Come on now.
Hey nightwish, how do you like your new frontliners singing your old songs? Does it feel like dressing your new girlfriend in your ex-wife's dresses? =D
She's so cute and lovely, with a beautiful smile. She's too a great artist but she's humble at the same time... In a single word: perfect!
She’s a one off. So happy to be around to appreciate it
I swear this woman smiles so much, she sets a good example for the world to smile more
In my opinion she is a great vocalist, she has a huge vocal spectrum, she is a great performer being cheerful most of the time and the most important thing is that she feels what she's doing, she's enjoying, she sometimes get emotional on stage and doesnt hold it in which is great.

Got nothing to say about Tuomas, words are not much to be honest, his whole existence is a masterpiece. Such a magnificent band!
its amazing how soft spoken Floor is and then she has this huge amazing voice when she sings
Very good interview. You need to give Floor space to talk and share her inner world including visions on the human world. That's what you did here, well done.
Almost 2020 and she is the best singer of all time.
Damn, even when she's speaking it's like singing. What a beautiful creature.
I THINK THIS LADY IS THE NEW METAL QUEEN!!!
+Paulo Martins 100% agree!
+Paulo Martins Yeah I agree!

Right on... I love to hear Floor and her sister Irene perform together. Awesome ladies!!!!!
I THINK SO TOO!!
I love what she said at the end. She isn't bashing Muslims, saying they are evil. She is talking about extremists, and the issues that are happening and she is right that we shouldn't listen to everything the media or our politicians say on this and that we should be more open minded.

I've just watched an interview where Tuomas said this will be the final line-up. I'm so fucking happy!
Dutch accents are very subtle. She seems very intelligent as well as one of the greatest singers EVER!
I am so impressed by her.
Floor is blessed with a God given voice and a beautiful soul.
An the funny thing, your imaginary friend had nothing to do with the voice...
A very smart and talented lady in deed!!
Floor Jansen
There are still some old grumps who never understood bands are bigger than their singular parts. They will never approve of anyone else than Tarja but luckily most of us know better. To me the band is complete now. The synergy is better than ever and you can see it in everything. Floor healed the band and the band healed her.
@hotlavatbey I don't see how it's possible (not to fall in love with her)
Bingo!
Totally agree!Her husband is one lucky guy.
@wendy pearson thank you! I just saw your replying comment, that's why I wrote you that much late 🙏🏻
The noise in the back was kind of annoying but it was a great interview overall.

I'm fan of Marco, but voices of Marco and Floor really do complement each other.
Floor Jansen is the "Dragonborn" She knows "The Way of The Voice" 😎👍🐱👤

played Skyrim too often? ;-)
Such an impressive human being , Incredibly talented , great work ethic , humble , intelligent , gorgeous, great sense of humor , classy.... the whole package .
i realy loved her answer to the last question. wise words and so important to keep in mind.
+TheEarenia We shall never be intimidated!
I can listen to her trying to say "prestigious" all day. :)
+KalvinEllis It is adorable
Definitely the best part, so cute smiling and showing her tongue.
+KalvinEllis
Tonge breaking! :D

Floor is so pretty 😍
She's amazing!
What a great interview! Floor is soo relaxed and gets very opened especially at the end. Good job and thank you
What a remarkable woman !!
I love her voice

+Fire of Jagz That's a hell of a story \m/ Keep it close to your heart for years to come.
She is such a down to earth person. I love her, shes a new vocalist on my favourite list and top on my female symphonic/operatic vocalists. She is so classy for a metalhead.

The ultimate Dutch goddess with unlimited class, pure unadulterated class!
I read an article she is four months pregnant. congratulations Floor !!!
great interview where floor really gets the time for her answers and i love it that she mentions anneke (van giersbergen) from the gathering (and skin from skunk anansie) as inspirations....
seriously great interview
There is an angel upon the earth singing our heart out, waking up our deepest emotions
i love her so much
I love Floor ❤❤❤
Amazing singer, lovely and beautiful lady and a cute Dutch accent :D

Great interview!
+Elämän Vettä Thanks!! Appreciate the comment :)
I love her
What a woman!
I love Floor Jansen...Best voice I've heard....Maybe Nightwish will keep her...
only a few singers can really move me, floor moves me the most.
Floor, you are beautiful and gorgeous...Your voice is above spectacular and ascendant...I want to hear more...please...
Very intelligent
Good interview!
I've never heard anybody, having such a logical and sensible opinion on terrorism as Floor does.
She is a goddess. Damn
she's my favorite
It's always fun to hear her Dutch accent while she speaks English, kinship insures for me when that happens
I love the thing you said! there are rotten apples there. It doesn't mean it is all of them. I have a muslim friend who says people blame her for attacks and call her a terrorist. Actually the people who claim they are Muslim and do this stuff fake they are muslim. Thank u for clarifying.

I can see why some say that Floor's hair is the 8th member of the band. We shudder before the beautiful.
Subtitles please
Goddess!! 😍

And the whole world falling over it.....Floor just summoned it up. :)
Floor 😍😘

FTW=FLOOR THE WIN!
The most beautiful girl of the word
The Best Singer of all time. She's a spectacle of nature, Supreme Perfection.
Oh my God those freckles.
Floor
Floor and Angela might be 2 opposites but they are 2 of my favourite singers. (Male or female)
What can i say, she's perfect, end of the story xD
Красивая женщина с красивым голосом )
9:43 the funniest thing!
What's that background noise guys? Too disturbing. It seems like you're in a refrigerator
+Spidervis It's the ventilation, which was blowing pretty hard in the room above the venue
Floor ты лучшая !!
Great :)
Waaaay better than Tarja
I didnt belive on god utill i heard her voice..
Floor I love you

She mentions few bands she likes.. did anyone catch their names?
Thank you :)
They talked about inspiring singers, and she named Skin from Skunk Anansie, Anneke van Giesbergen from The Gathering and Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy.
What did the Rug say to (the) Floor? don't move I got you covered... xD
the perfect woman to marry :)
I love you Floor, my name is Fernndo in Brazil
Why not invest in a decent microphone if you're going to interview someone? The static in the background is horrible.
what song is the video. .
elan
