  • Today's Storytime is about my trip to The Netherlands & more! Seeing my family after all these months was such a treat! On top of that, sitting together with Joost van den Broek at Sandlane Recording Facilities and writing & recording music together was a lot of fun!
    In the meantime, Nala was busy in Sweden & I got to go on a holiday with Hannes & Freja as well. Hope you all enjoy this episode of Saturday Storytime!
    A huge thank you to Marcus Körling from Let's Live for giving me my Wolf & Dog tattoo!

    Fascinating, being a scientist and a biology teacher for 35 years,I wondered why i rarely get chills listening to music. BUT your voice does it nearly everytime even when ive heard the same song hundreds of times.You dont just sing ,you absorb emotions around you and concentrate them .When you sing it is not just your vocal chords but your soul which connects to your audience hey presto floorgasm. Very special person and artist : a total force or nature

    Floor, wat ben jij een voorbeeld voor veel mensen die ooit last hadden/hebben van een burn-out. WAT KWAM JIJ ER UIT! Ook jouw optredens bij 'de beste zangers' waren voor iedereen een openbaring. Nightwish met 'onze Floor' verdient in Nederland nog meer podium. Ik hoop heel stiekem dat je deelnemer zal zijn op het Eurovisie Songfestival. Desnoods een duet met Tim Akkerman of Henk Poort. Europa zal uit zijn dak gaan. Wat een stem! We mogen trots op je zijn Floor!

  • @billattercliffe8655
    @billattercliffe8655 3 года назад +36

    I have never been a person who paid much attention to popular culture, but I connected with both you and Nightwish early on without fully understanding why. The penny dropped as to why when you talked about being a highly sensitive person. Now I understand why the connection fits. We share some challenges. I listen to Marko and Tuomas speak and I realize that I share traits with them as well.
    The world is not a friendly place for exceptional people. I congratulate you on turning your exceptionalism into success. I went the opposite way and suppressed it so that I might meet the expectations of others.
    Nightwish has become my intellectual indulgence, like a box of chocolates filled with exotic flavours. Thank you for that.

    Once again Floor, you are so special to share with all of us fans. These are some very personal touches you have allowed us to see and make us all feel like we are a part of your life. More than fans! You treat us like we are personal friends and family. I have met and know many well known and respected musicians and have never come across one with so much willingness to invite their fans to truly see who they really are under the makeup and behind the stage persona's. You are one of a kind with a beautiful soul my lady! Nightwish is lucky to have called you at the perfect moment when you were available. I personally think it was fate. So great to see you are working with Joost. He is a brilliant musician and seems to be a wonderful man as well. After seeing this we are all expecting BIG & WONDERFUL things in the future! No pressure, just excitement and anticipation of amazing music to come. I loved everything that both of you have done with all of Arjen's musical projects. Can't wait! Freja is getting so big. She is going to be tall like you, or should I say statuesque! Yes that is definitely the correct word. Hope Hannes is doing well and the Sabaton tour kicks ass. I am going to see them with Priest in Minneapolis next month. Peace and love from Minnesota.

    You being a highly sensitive person that has been, and still maintains such a demanding and stressful line of work (music business, being the frontwoman of a megaband, solo projects, traveling etc etc) is beyond understanding for me. It is so impressive. It inspires me who easily bends under to stress and stress-related diseases to work towards a work day with normal or full working hours. It can be done, as long as you know your limits and take your breaks. Lots of love to you Floor

    WOW!! I can't for the life of me find even the tiniest thing that was less than absolutely perfect with the performances that I watched/ listened to. Excellent production quality, band cohesiveness, point for point professionalism in every aspect and YOU COMMAND A VOICE THE LIKE OF WHICH I'VE NEVER HEARD.
    Here's wishing you all the best in life and you definitely have a fan in me. Thank you very much!!

    Hearing you talk about your high sensitivity really made something click in my brain about the way you can really channel the emotions of whatever song you’re singing, be that your own or someone else’s. I’m probably nearer the other side of the spectrum, with relatively low sensitivity, but I can really tell, especially when you’re live, that you almost feed off the emotions of the audience (that sounded slightly morbid oops😂) and use that energy to really fit into a “role”/“character” that you portray on stage, be that the powerful, larger than life warrior or the smaller, sensitive and nurturing mother-like figure. You’re a beautiful soul and you seem to channel emotions in your voice that hit me hard.

  • @SandraNelson063
    @SandraNelson063 3 года назад +18

    Floor, love, the reason why you are able to sing the way you do---you grasp the emotional intent of the writer, the direction of the music. You are the writer's voice. The writer's thoughts are yours. The Poet and Pendulum is the best example of what I mean. Also How's the Heart. It means, for me, that whenever I have the rope in my hands, you show up at the door with kerosene and matches. That's how you use your High Sensitivity.

    Lieve Floor,geweldig dat je zo open deelt over je hoog sensitiviteit 👏 En ook helemaal herkenbaar wat je vertelt over de behoefte aan de rust in de natuur én de emoties oppikken van anderen en soms ongewild met je meenemen. Ik heb de ziekte ME in een ernstige vorm en dan is die kant van de hoog sensitiviteit niet handig,erg belastend zelfs. Maar idd,het is een beetje te leren om jezelf wat meer af te sluiten voor de emoties van de ander. Btw,ik geniet zo enorm van je muziek,zowel van jouzelf als van Nightwish! Aangezien ik huisgebonden en veel bedgebonden ben is dat een waardevol geschenk 🙏. Mooi mens en supertalent,dankjewel voor alles wat je geeft en doet! Ook deze video's geniet ik van 🤗

    Thank you for the very uplifting storytime ❤️ Your music is helping me getting through the current, quite dark period of my life. I feel really lucky that music can change so many things, especially the music of Nightwish ☺️

    That was really beautiful showing your cat giving birth and the kittens! I love your "life" videos, because you show many different aspects of your life and what you're into. (horses, cats, dogs, fence building). A very well rounded video!

    It’s so cool to see Hannes and yourself in this aspect. You are both larger than life on stage and then seeing you together in your family/home element cooking and doing things on your property (which is beautiful by the way) just makes you realize how everyone is different ...but also the same. Glad u got to see your family and excited to see your solo work when it’s ready. Stay safe.

    I am ridiculously excited to see you and Joost back together again. I know whatever you're working on is going to be interesting and no doubt make me cry as well. Maybe I'm Highly Sensitive too? Hope you and Irene had fun catching up. I haven't seen my younger brother and his family since May, and they're only about 20 miles away. My nephew is now a teenager and his sister is about to start secondary school in September (if it's safe to by then). Your daughter is growing - thanks for granting us a little glimpse of her. I'm sure she and Hannes had fun whilst you were away. ❤️

    Floor, thank you so, so much for sharing that you are highly sensitive. I, too have always been a HSP but only discovered a couple years ago that it is an actual trait, which has started me on my journey of learning more about it and how to navigate it in a positive way that works best for me. Best wishes from Australia!

    Knowing how careful you and Hannes are with Freja thanks for the glimpses. Can't wait to see what you and Joost create, I can only imagine how happy that studio was with him at the piano and you singing. Thank you also for being a wonderful example of responsibility wearing your mask, and it looked like a great time with the family. You probably helped many people with your openness and being so candid about sensitivity, use your platform to educate. Can't wait for the next episode.

I don't know how i lived in this crazy world not knowing about you it's an honor to live in a world with you and your talent that you bring to the world. I hope you can tour the states more. Thank you for letting us into your world. God Bless you and your family.

    🤯😲 Joost?! A familiar face which sprouted a beard in a few days ;) LOL. The two of you beautiful people don't look a day over 20 🥰
    I love the wolf&dog tattoo, and the fact that you placed them with so much thought and attention.
    The little glimpses of Freja helping to cook were just adorable 🥰 little valkyrie is so tall already and has such beautiful golden hair!
    The sneak peeks of musics has me feeling extremely excited, especially considering Joost is involved!!
    Thank you for being unapologetically you, Floor. Thank you for inspiring so many of us and for helping us through our tough times. Take good care, be safe and healthy, and I hope you and your charming family all the happiness this world has to offer.

Het geeft meer inzicht en verklaard ook de bijzondere uitstraling en beleving in je optredens. Zo natuurlijk !!! Ik volg je sinds Beste Zangers en ben helemaal 'weg van jou en Nightwish. Dankjewel en hoop nog eens een optreden van jou en/of Nightwish mee te maken. Love you. Peter

    You are so inspiring and motivating! Your music saved me in a few very dark time periods. Your vlogs are so inspiring, and shows how much you care about your fans. You put so much effort into them.
    And you are a role model. Your attitude, your humble personality, and your positivity. You just make me want to work extremely hard to achieve my goals one day.
    I am a very (and i mean, extremely) sensitive person too, and crying/panic attack/extreme emotions are sometimes triggered by the most trivial things. I was bullied because of it for a long time. Crying over everything all the time made it worse, but i could not deal with it, and as a child i didn't even know such thing actually exists. It came with an addition of strong social anxiety. You had a huge role in accepting myself the way i am, and trying to benefit from these things. I wish you and your family all the best, and thank you for all the effort you put into communicating with fans during quarantine.

    Dear Floor, thank you for taking the time to make a video during your holidays. I am glad you got to see your family and friends and your new tattoos are quite nice indeed! Also thanks for the book recommandation about high sensitivity, same story here so it's always comforting to hear others talking about their way of dealing with this "hyper-empathy" as I call it! Take care and see you soon (hopefully)! Love from Paris.

    • @FrenchAmertine
      @FrenchAmertine 3 года назад +1

      Do you meditate sometimes to help with your high sensitivity? I find it very helpful and relieving but it sure takes time and discipline so I guess your schedule doesn't always allow you to do so... anyway, reading about it definitely helps and to each person his/her own trick! Let's be proud of our super wired brains :)

I’m glad you are able to travel in Europe and see your family - virtual is nice of course, but nothing beats seeing people in the flesh. Love the tattoos (particularly the placement of them - your symbolic balance!) and Nala’s KITTENS!! That happened so fast! How is Fenris doing as a Dad? Haha! 🐈 Take care, Floor! Thanks for these videos. 🙏🏻

I love how you show nature, these beautiful wildflowers or a walk in the woods, I get blurry .... These tattoos are cool, well done.I like the song already. Lots of health Floor for you and your loved ones. 🍀
