This song was written by Tim Akkerman (the guy who is almost crying). Tim wrote this song for his brother, who is in a wheelchair but is not letting it discourage him. Tim said that he didn’t want to cry during the show (the title of the album is “Lions don’t cry”). But after hearing this perfomance by Floor, he couldn’t help it.
Actually, Tim said that he doesn't ever cry, when they were talking the afternoon before the evening performances... It would be cool if you could do the BZ songs including the 5min "talk" between the songs... they are in Dutch ofcourse, but there are translations by fans.
It's almost impossible for me to listen to this song without crying, as I have the same disability Tim's brother has. I have no problems with my disability at all but this pushes some buttons, and the flood opens.........
Tim Akerman wrote this song for his Brother who is living life confined to a Wheelchair. The Show Beste Zangers is a none competive celebration of Music, each singer is from a different Musical Background or Scene. They Sing each others songs in their own unique way, they also select Songs for each other to Sing.
Oh Floor zingt this for Tim Akkerman 💙 he wrote this song for his brother who is in a wheelchair. I've never heard my Brother complain, that's why I'm so Madly Proud of him. He's never that emotional, but Floor made him cry.😢 Thank You so much Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️
That woman, my compatriot is a true phenomenon..turns silver into GOLD. If she hadn't participated in that programm she still would be unknown to me and to many of my compatriots. Asking her to participate was a super decission.
All songs Floor performed in this show are worth a reaction. Floor is an empath, yes she has the capabilities to sing anything, but she has to feel the song, then she makes it her own.
The show’s format is this. All the participants are singers from different genres: pop, folk, opera, etc. Each week one of the artists is “on the couch” and each of the others will perform a song for them. The song can be one that the artist on the couch has written/performed or a song that has some special meaning for them. At the end, they pick which song moved them the most - not necessarily the best performance. This song was written by Tim Ackerman - the bearded fellow - for his wheelchair bound brother. Please check out “Mama” next. Then Shallow and the Phantom.
The guy they kept going back to that was tearing up, it was his song he wrote for his brother that uses a wheelchair his whole life but never complains.
I like how Floor can move other singers to tears and give them goosebumps. We all know how that feels. Tim, on the center couch, wrote this song for his Brother who is in wheelchair and never complains about it. 😊🤘
I agree with you, Dominika (sorry if I didn't write your name right). Floor is somehow conforting. With Nightwish she has this Valkerie metal goddes look but the way she sings makes you feel safe. Even when she sings more aggressive or more emotional songs, at the end you always think that everything will be ok. I don't know how she does that, maybe is something about her persona that shines through the music. At least this is how I feel when I listen to her.
This whole series in 2019 was wonderful for Floor, she sings in so many different styles and languages, it gave her a lot of publicity in her home country, to people who say they hadn't heard of her before. Her "Phone book" was just as good as expected! "Beste Zangers" is so much better than "Talent" shows, it is not a competition, singers from different genres enjoy each others company, picnic, walks on the beach. Then in the evening, one person sits on the central sofa with the presenter, the others get to sing a song that they pick, to be personally relevant.
🇬🇧 Norfolk with you guys tear jerker with the back story what a honour for Tim to have this song about his brother sang to him by Floor Every week one artist has the others sing to them songs that mean something to them this was Tim’s turn
Floor never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I have heard it all from her, she blows me away once again. I am definitely going to be a life long Floor fan for sure! I really feel that it would be very fitting, one day, for her to be honored by being inducted into one of the music halls of fame as one of the most talented and powerful vocalists of all time. Heck, considering that she can sing literallly anything that is put in front of her, shwe could probably be inducted into serveral different music halls of fame. I love watching people react to the Ghost Love Score performance from Wacken 2013. By the end of the performance, most of these people are either crying happy tears, have to pick up their jaw off the floor or they just sit there stunned and completely speechless. Watching those first timers never gets old. I would think it would be fair to say that most of these people very quickly realize that they are in the presence of greatness.
Links to the other Beste Zangers Floor performances have been shared in the comments. I hope you cover them. Also the duet Floor sings with Henk Poort, The Phantom Of The Opera is something you'll be listening to more than once or twice. Thanks for another awesome reaction.
Great Reaction! All of Floor's performances on this show are excellent. The first song she sang was on the first night of the show and everybody was singing to the older gentleman on the couch, Henk Poort. Floor sang Vilja Lied because his mother used to sing it to him when he was a boy and I think only one person had heard Floor sing before then and when she sang that song they were all Floored (no pun intended). Watch the video of that song with subtitles. It shows them sitting on the couches and talking before (and after) Floor gets up to sing and she explains why she did the show and why she is not very popular in her home country. Very informative. AVROTROS doesn't show any of the talking before any of the singers get up to sing.
The song was written by the gentleman who they keep showing Tim Ackerman , he wrote it for his brother who's in a wheelchair.......very inspirational song and Floor knocks it out of the park . Every song Floor performs on this show is GOLD ...as you mentioned Shallow and Phantom also Mama , Vilja Lied and I dont know a thing about love ....." the floor effect " i like that . BTW ....i subbed your other channel , enjoying the other journey in your lives .
In each series a number of well-known performers take turns as the central artist in the hot seat that gets honoured by the other artists by singing songs that are of significance to that person. It can be a cover of one of his/her own songs, a song that inspires the artist in the hot seat or something from his/her past. Judging is of no importance, but the artist in the hot seat does get to pick a favourite performance.
Every single song Floor did on this show was great. The recommendations made (of Floor in Beste Zangers) to you were the "popular" songs (ie Shallow), however, I especially liked Mama, Que' Se Siente (Spanish), Vilja Lied (German), Winner (written by Tim Akkerman as noted in previous comment), I don't know a thing about love. These are rearrangements (the band helped a lot with these) with a little "metal" or "grit" in them performed by Floor. I think if you watch all of the solo performances of Floor on this show you get several new dimensions of her talent.
Although I loved everyone of Floors performances on this show the one that still sticks out is ‘Vilja Lied’. The first time the others had seen the ‘metal singer’ actually sing. Their faces as they were probably expecting growling etc and she performs an opera aria.
Wow thanks so much for the context. I had heard that song before when I would just have my streaming device shuffle Floor Jansen music, but with the background story that makes it so much better.
You heard it right that Floor really has sung the phonebook(!) In a radio show they asked her to do it and you can look it up on RUclips ("Floor singing phonebook").
I know I say it often, " she is a Empath, every note, every word passes through her soul and heart. Great reaction, thank you. Look forward to your next reaction. Be well.
There are 2 versions on youtube for every song: official with only song and translated and expanded from "jenniezelf" where artists are interviewed before the song (about their life, why they picked the sing, etc). It's really fun to get to know the protagonists.
Wicked, you found Beste Zangers. I never watch Dutch television (I cut the cable years ago). One exception: Beste Zangers at my sister's place with the kids.. You're in for a treat. The singers perform each other songs (often with a twist and as a form of tribute) (and no! competition). In the same show she also sings an ancient Austrian song (Vilja Lied). Worth a watch. I believe it was her opener if I remember it correctly) Anyways; great reaction my friends, per usual & cheers from tha Low Countries.
Thank you so much for reacting to this song , even now , three years later I still shed a tear ! For the story behind the song and for how emotional Tim (the writer of this song ) gets , but mostly by Floor's performance ❤
Dominika, you have picked up on Floor's inner self shining through her music. You should check out her RUclips channel. There are many videos on there that help you get to know her as the genuine, humble, and down-to-earth person that she is.
Hi. Great reaction, again. It's pleasure to watch your videos. Dominica, you said "she's just coming like a tornado, but the good tornado. She just hits you with the full force". You are absolutely right! And you know what!? In FLoor's last singel Storm (it's from her solo project) she is singing about it: It is me who brings the storm So when you think you've won the fighting I'm gonna strike your heart with lightning You'll be blinded by the light Blinded by the light You're gonna hear my voice roar like thunder. All the best for both of you and see you soon.
At the beginning of this show non of the others who are also singers/writer didn't have a clue who floor was didn't know what symphonic metal was not done in the Netherlands more folk type music, floor sings with the emotions needed for the individual songs because she feels it that's what makes her great God bless
If you watch the full episode, there's a really touching back story about her selection of this song. The curly haired guy is Tim Akkerman, and 'Winner' is his song, hence his emotional reaction to being surprised by it. Thanks for another nice reaction.
The person in the hotseat has the other musicians sing to them. The episode that floors in the hotseat, Tim, the guy she just sang to, did a nightwish song to her!
Hello Andrej and Dominika. Floor sings a song of Tim Akkerman ( first man you see). Tim's brother is in a wheelchair. Nevertheless, he is a happy boy and for Tim his brother is a real winner. So it's a song written for his brother. Floor sensed that flawlessly
Guys, you know how I love you both. Now you know the song was performed for Tim's benefit, in the quiet of your own time, go and watch this again. I defy you not to cry. Love from England xx
The guy with the curly lite brown hair ( Tim Akkerman) ,that's his song he wrote about his brother who has Spina Bifida, he is hearing Floor's version for the 1st time, btw please go back a bit after a pause ,else things are missed,thank you, cheers
Meby is a idee that you look episode 4 from ''beste zangers'' the sing Floor favoriete songs.good luck💖 and she really dide sing live on radio 2 the foonbook 🤘❤
You should also check out her version of "Vilja Lied", a song from a german opera, which she was singing for Henk Poort (the older bald guy). It was the first time, these people (and many at home on tv) heard Floor, and it was also the very start of that season.
the format of the show is very simple - there are invited singers with different music styles - and every week one artist is in the spot - - that will stay on the main couch - and all the others sing to the spoted artist, songs from the spotted artist repertoire in their own way as a tribute to that spotted artist - and this will rotate for all the singers (that will go on the spot - main couch) - and in the end of the show they will make some duets....
Floor sang the phone book...or actually the Yellow Pages: ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html The show is not a contest. They put together a group of singers from different genres and ask them to sing songs for each other that are of great significance to that person; their first hit, a song that inspired them to become a singer, a song they wrote for someone special. Since they all come from different genres they adapt the songs or completely step out of their comfort zone. The cross-overs that emerge really are the best. In this season You have Floor (Symphonic metal) Henk (Opera/musical), Tim (Hard Rock), Samantha (Dutch Folk), Ruben (Singer-Songwriter), Emma (contemporary), Rolf (Salsa-pop).
Here's the video with English subtitles (turn them on), everyone is talking about. It will give you guys a different perspective on why the song is written in the first place, and secondly why Floor wanted to sing this song for Tim Akkerman. ruclips.net/video/vQ04AUZdTss/видео.html Here's the "Phonebook" video aswell; ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html You guys might want to watch this also, it's a complete episode of Beste Zangers with English subtitles. In this Episode all the singers perform a song for Floor. ruclips.net/video/YvqyKUvbWF8/видео.html There, that should give you guys enough info about the program itself. Enjoy!
Hello. Maybe it's time to learn how Floor begening her Journey. So you must check her in her first Band, AFTER FOREVERr (She joins the band with 16 years old), and check her singing with only 21 at: After Forever - Monolith Of Doubt Live At Kopspijkers (2002). Then, few years later she had another band, REVAMP. You should check the song: ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010). Then she had another project. Northward. Check the song: NORTHWARD - While Love Died (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO). Love your reactions. keep it coming 🧡🤘🧡
Great reaction guys, I'll just do a repost of my Qué se Siente comment, to provide the extended versions which will give you the backstory to each song etc.. with English subtitles. Starts just before Floor actually starts to sing. Here's an example: ruclips.net/video/lcYSd64AUw8/видео.html Floor sings "Shallow" for Emma Heesters. The before/after talk is lovely to see and you also get some info abt the artist the song is sung to. The channel I linked to features 6 episodes from Beste Zangers 2019, some hardsubbed some with captions added. For your convenience (and our enjoyment later..), I'll list the other English subbed episodes still available on that channel. When you click the link, you'll get to the part where they introduce the song Floor is going to sing. One exception: in Floor's episode she is sung to and from that episode you guys simply HAVE to watch how Emma Heesters moves Floor with one of Floor's old songs (about her mother). So here goes: - Beste Zangers 2019 afl 1 Henk Poort (eng.translation): Floor sings "Vilja Lied" ruclips.net/video/_Ya2Tb1-mmc/видео.html - Beste Zangers 2019 afl 4 Floor Jansen (eng.translation): Emma sings "Strong" ruclips.net/video/rBSD5o0wyCI/видео.html - Beste Zangers 2019 Afl 5 Ruben Annink (eng.translation burned-in subs): Floor sings "I Don't Know A Thing About Love" ruclips.net/video/UYfGtYwQ9aQ/видео.html - Beste Zangers 2019 afl 7 Tim Akkerman (eng.translation): Floor sings "Winner" ruclips.net/video/yi8NpJgZ204/видео.html Okay, the last one is not up for reacting anymore, but I left it here just for the fun of it. Cheers from Amsterdam!
@@zoeystar4668 Especially with the before and after talk. Provides context & makes the whole experience so much better. Sure hope Andrei & Dominika will use the links in their nxt Beste Zangers 2019 reactions.
You haven't seen the other singers. Floor doesn't think she is the best of all. You make her a god, she is a human like you and me. There were a lot of beautiful songs.
Lovely reaction. Love your guys interaction. Others have told you how the show works and that this song was written by Tim Akkeerman. Echo others who mentioned Vilja Lied, Shallow, and Phantom of the Opera with Shallow being my first choice. Also really like some of the songs by the other artists including Strong by Emma Heesters, sung for Floor (song written by Floor about her Mom's battle with Rheumatoid Arthritis) and Samantha Steenwuk singing Nightwish's Our Decades in the Sun for Floor. Floor singing the phone book on Dutch Radio show. She was there to promote her solo single Fire. ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html
Surely you know by now - that feeling has ghe name "Floorgasm". Shallow from this program is superb. Floor takes ownership away from Lady Gaga. Her solo si glez written by her are both dxcellemt - Fire and then Storm.
Since Storytime is your favorite Floor song, I thought you might like a different take on the song. On Sing Meinen Song Kelvin Jones sang his version of Storytime to Floor. Here is the link ruclips.net/video/5s5oGYEdXFk/видео.html.
This song was written by Tim Akkerman (the guy who is almost crying). Tim wrote this song for his brother, who is in a wheelchair but is not letting it discourage him. Tim said that he didn’t want to cry during the show (the title of the album is “Lions don’t cry”). But after hearing this perfomance by Floor, he couldn’t help it.
Actually, Tim said that he doesn't ever cry, when they were talking the afternoon before the evening performances...
It would be cool if you could do the BZ songs including the 5min "talk" between the songs... they are in Dutch ofcourse, but there are translations by fans.
It's almost impossible for me to listen to this song without crying, as I have the same disability Tim's brother has. I have no problems with my disability at all but this pushes some buttons, and the flood opens.........
Tim added that he now was forced to change the title of his album, Lions don't cry 😅
Tim Akerman wrote this song for his Brother who is living life confined to a Wheelchair. The Show Beste Zangers is a none competive celebration of Music, each singer is from a different Musical Background or Scene. They Sing each others songs in their own unique way, they also select Songs for each other to Sing.
The most beautiful here.., is that it is not a competition. It is a compliment to the other artists. Thát is what makes this "De BesteZangers".
Oh Floor zingt this for Tim Akkerman 💙 he wrote this song for his brother who is in a wheelchair. I've never heard my Brother complain, that's why I'm so Madly Proud of him.
He's never that emotional,
but Floor made
him cry.😢
Thank You so much
Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️
To simplify your choices - Every one of her Beste Zangers appearances are amazing, just watch them all.
you should try Floor and Troy " Hows the Heart" with Troy playing the acoustic guiter on Planer Rock. Love you guys
I concur.
Yes, absolutely this is a must reaction: ruclips.net/video/yYtkPpFYzOo/видео.html
That woman, my compatriot is a true phenomenon..turns silver into GOLD. If she hadn't participated in that programm she still would be unknown to me and to many of my compatriots. Asking her to participate was a super decission.
All songs Floor performed in this show are worth a reaction. Floor is an empath, yes she has the capabilities to sing anything, but she has to feel the song, then she makes it her own.
"Mama" is very good even though it is in Dutch.
Also from this show "you don't know a thing about love" by Floor. Very very nice song and also a must see.
Absolutely! Probably my favourite of hers from the show.
Agreed
The show’s format is this. All the participants are singers from different genres: pop, folk, opera, etc. Each week one of the artists is “on the couch” and each of the others will perform a song for them.

Please check out “Mama” next. Then Shallow and the Phantom.
The guy they kept going back to that was tearing up, it was his song he wrote for his brother that uses a wheelchair his whole life but never complains.
Floor is so filled with love that it comes through in all her songs. Amazing.
I like how Floor can move other singers to tears and give them goosebumps. We all know how that feels. Tim, on the center couch, wrote this song for his Brother who is in wheelchair and never complains about it. 😊🤘
I recommend the song Phantom of the opera also sung on Beste Zangers 2019 together with Henk Port very enjoyable 🙂
"To Floor", short but powerfull. I love that answer....sounded like 'What else?😂
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA 💟
I agree with you, Dominika (sorry if I didn't write your name right). Floor is somehow conforting. With Nightwish she has this Valkerie metal goddes look but the way she sings makes you feel safe.

She's not human or of this planet what can't she do that's why she's the metal queen I got chills when she sings
We are all winners, when we have the privilege to hear Floor's singing. 😎👍
🇬🇧 Norfolk with you guys tear jerker with the back story what a honour for Tim to have this song about his brother sang to him by Floor

@@anaguq4651 yup, this song especially. The context before and after is everything.

Thank you so much for reacting to this song , even now , three years later I still shed a tear !
For the story behind the song and for how emotional Tim (the writer of this song ) gets , but mostly by Floor's performance ❤

Thanks for the reaction! This song has a beautiful backstory❤
She is like a very precious diamond .Many facets has her divine voice 😍 ✨ 🙌 ❤
Hail the Goddess 😇 🙌 👏 🙏 🔥
Not a phone book but the Yellow Pages 💛
Most of us prefer her with Nightwish but this is such a great bonus where we see other sides of Floor.
This song is by the curly haired guy with the big smile. We all prefer Floor with Nightwish, but as long as it's Floor I am here for it! Loved it!
Good one you should do the first one too Vilja Lied when the rest of the singers first hear floor.
You may want to check out Emma Heesters sing the song Strong to Floor. She did a fantastic job and Floor gets emotional as well.
The guy with the curly lite brown hair ( Tim Akkerman) ,that's his song he wrote about his brother who has Spina Bifida, he is hearing Floor's version for the 1st time, btw please go back a bit after a pause ,else things are missed,thank you, cheers
Meby is a idee that you look episode 4 from ''beste zangers'' the sing Floor favoriete songs.good luck💖 and she really dide sing live on radio 2 the foonbook 🤘❤
hello both, on a tv show she sang a part of phone book
You should also check out her version of "Vilja Lied", a song from a german opera, which she was singing for Henk Poort (the older bald guy). It was the first time, these people (and many at home on tv) heard Floor, and it was also the very start of that season.
You should indeed also see the intro, the background of the songs, with English subs

Guys.. you should react to the complete season whit Floor
Floor sang the phone book...or actually the Yellow Pages: ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html
The show is not a contest. They put together a group of singers from different genres and ask them to sing songs for each other that are of great significance to that person; their first hit, a song that inspired them to become a singer, a song they wrote for someone special. Since they all come from different genres they adapt the songs or completely step out of their comfort zone. The cross-overs that emerge really are the best.
In this season You have Floor (Symphonic metal) Henk (Opera/musical), Tim (Hard Rock), Samantha (Dutch Folk), Ruben (Singer-Songwriter), Emma (contemporary), Rolf (Salsa-pop).
"Beste Zangers" in dutch has two meamings,,, "Best Singers" and" Dear singers"
💚
Here’s Floor singing the phonebook. ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html
Here's the video with English subtitles (turn them on), everyone is talking about. It will give you guys a different perspective on why the song is written in the first place, and secondly why Floor wanted to sing this song for Tim Akkerman. ruclips.net/video/vQ04AUZdTss/видео.html Here's the "Phonebook" video aswell; ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html
You guys might want to watch this also, it's a complete episode of Beste Zangers with English subtitles. In this Episode all the singers perform a song for Floor. ruclips.net/video/YvqyKUvbWF8/видео.html There, that should give you guys enough info about the program itself. Enjoy!
Hello. Maybe it's time to learn how Floor begening her Journey. So you must check her in her first Band, AFTER FOREVERr (She joins the band with 16 years old), and check her singing with only 21 at: After Forever - Monolith Of Doubt Live At Kopspijkers (2002). Then, few years later she had another band, REVAMP. You should check the song: ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010). Then she had another project. Northward. Check the song: NORTHWARD - While Love Died (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO). Love your reactions. keep it coming 🧡🤘🧡
No-no-no, we would never do that. Pick anything from this show(including the
other artists) and you will not be disappointed....
When you said she is like a tornado but in a good way... Have you listen/reacted to here latest solosong? Its called Storm
Band family
You forget the Vilja Lied.🤗
"it's the Floor effect " ' 7:21 ish ' yup.
She is singing a song from him.
Great reaction guys, I'll just do a repost of my Qué se Siente comment, to provide the extended versions which will give you the backstory to each song etc.. with English subtitles. Starts just before Floor actually starts to sing. Here's an example: ruclips.net/video/lcYSd64AUw8/видео.html Floor sings "Shallow" for Emma Heesters. The before/after talk is lovely to see and you also get some info abt the artist the song is sung to. The channel I linked to features 6 episodes from Beste Zangers 2019, some hardsubbed some with captions added.
For your convenience (and our enjoyment later..), I'll list the other English subbed episodes still available on that channel. When you click the link, you'll get to the part where they introduce the song Floor is going to sing. One exception: in Floor's episode she is sung to and from that episode you guys simply HAVE to watch how Emma Heesters moves Floor with one of Floor's old songs (about her mother).
So here goes:
- Beste Zangers 2019 afl 1 Henk Poort (eng.translation): Floor sings "Vilja Lied" ruclips.net/video/_Ya2Tb1-mmc/видео.html
- Beste Zangers 2019 afl 4 Floor Jansen (eng.translation): Emma sings "Strong" ruclips.net/video/rBSD5o0wyCI/видео.html
- Beste Zangers 2019 Afl 5 Ruben Annink (eng.translation burned-in subs): Floor sings "I Don't Know A Thing About Love" ruclips.net/video/UYfGtYwQ9aQ/видео.html
- Beste Zangers 2019 afl 7 Tim Akkerman (eng.translation): Floor sings "Winner" ruclips.net/video/yi8NpJgZ204/видео.html
Okay, the last one is not up for reacting anymore, but I left it here just for the fun of it. Cheers from Amsterdam!
Oh yes, Cheers to all these outstanding performances that are a MUST for a reaction. They are all so good.
@@zoeystar4668 Especially with the before and after talk. Provides context & makes the whole experience so much better. Sure hope Andrei & Dominika will use the links in their nxt Beste Zangers 2019 reactions.
I don't know much about love . From same program and floor sing it .
Hi U 2 you are a breath of fresh air reacting I would recommend Lady Floor Northward while love died love and peace from Ireland 🇮🇪🇺🇦☘️🇺🇦🇮🇪🤘🤘🤘
Momma Floor
You haven't seen the other singers. Floor doesn't think she is the best of all. You make her a god, she is a human like you and me. There were a lot of beautiful songs.
Please to react Floor solo songs „Fire” and „Storm” 🔥💪
I am to responde like im just a Viking...
Hey guys, here is the fragment of Floor singing the phonebook 😄

Lovely reaction. Love your guys interaction. Others have told you how the show works and that this song was written by Tim Akkeerman. Echo others who mentioned Vilja Lied, Shallow, and Phantom of the Opera with Shallow being my first choice. Also really like some of the songs by the other artists including Strong by Emma Heesters, sung for Floor (song written by Floor about her Mom's battle with Rheumatoid Arthritis) and Samantha Steenwuk singing Nightwish's Our Decades in the Sun for Floor.
Floor singing the phone book on Dutch Radio show. She was there to promote her solo single Fire. ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html
Check out Floor's episode where all the other singers sing for her. ruclips.net/video/YvqyKUvbWF8/видео.html It has English sub titles.
Surely you know by now - that feeling has ghe name "Floorgasm".
Shallow from this program is superb. Floor takes ownership away from Lady Gaga.
Her solo si glez written by her are both dxcellemt - Fire and then Storm.
next Phantom with Henk Poort
Since Storytime is your favorite Floor song, I thought you might like a different take on the song. On Sing Meinen Song Kelvin Jones sang his version of Storytime to Floor. Here is the link ruclips.net/video/5s5oGYEdXFk/видео.html.
its just.....
ruclips.net/video/YvqyKUvbWF8/видео.html whole episode from the songs that they sang for/from Floor
🎵🎵👍👍🇳🇱💕
ruclips.net/video/CLUr1DLwEQg/видео.html Here is the link for Floor sings phone book.
You beat me to it. 🤣🤣🤣🧡
@@anaguq4651 🤗
I think you somehow spoiled the experience by stopping this short tune. She builds the song up - but that effect vanished in the stop button.
Har du et problem ? :))))))
So i ask you....Are you standing upp ??
