I felt the same joy as you seeing this interpretation. Floor literally blew them away!!! They didn't knew what to expect, since Floor is almost unknown in her own country, because in Netherlands metal genres are not aired by public mass-media (radio / TV)! We're witnessing a page of history!...
And not to mention she was the first one to perform in the first episode with this gem. Talking about setting a tone for the whole season. I would've hated to be Emma (younger female) and have to sing after this. OMFG (Oh My Floor Goddess)
Thanks, nice reaction. OMG, Floor is soo good, does not matter what she sings or what language. And she still, after 3 show, can surprise us and those other vocalists! Even we already know how incredible good she is, but still surprise after surprise! Please check out those two other songs (here in other comments already mentioned). "Mama" was in 31.8., “Que se siente” was 7.9. and this "Vilja Lied" was 24.8. Next Sat 14.9. those other singers will sing Floor´s songs. We all are waiting what they will choose from her songs or life... After that, Sat 21.9. Floor is again singing a song to some of those other vocalists. After everyone has been "middle person", then in last show they will perform duets. And now already we are guessing with whom Floor will do it.
This is an aria, called Vilja lied, from the operetta The Merry Widow by Franz Lehár. Btw this is the first time that Floor is singing in German. The second song she did was in Dutch and last Saturday she sang for the first time in Spanish. Five more episodes to come on this Dutch TV show De Beste Zangers (the best singers)
Peter Flying Dutchman 👊❤️🗣You are so amazing with knowledge! I did not know any of this... I’ve never seen this show before... everyone is filling me in on what this show is about! 🙂🙌💕 much love from California
TheBlackiwid Heheh your comment made me smile :D ... I have listened to a fair share of opera (and some operettas) in my life and it's indeed a highly stylised and technical form of singing especially in the higher vocal ranges (Floor is a soprano) ... and to achieve the high notes and the range, the vowels can't really be pronounced properly which is why it can be difficult to understand the words :) ... in the moderate range of the song you can hear the text a bit better ... my favourite audible line was "so liebt und so küßt gar kein irdisches Kind" 😀🤣👏🏻
@@TerranigmaQuintet in the original video coment section someone said this should be on spotify and the responce where it is on spotify with a link. So it is on spotify ( all the songs from the show will go on spotify as far as i know ) one of the first 200 comments in the original video
Thank You Kristin. Excellent piece of art! Have a nice day, ❤ And Thank's for the Love in video! You Sweetheart! Floor! 💖💝❤. I have no Words anymore. I Surrender. 😲
This song is about a guy, who catches a glimpse of a maid in the forest. He is mesmerized by her beauty. Then he prays if he could have her as his all time love. And then the girl invites him or rather pulls him into her house. :) The guy is on a high, as you can imagine. But when he kisses the maid, she disappears. And the guy is left alone. Basically that's the song in a nutshell.
@@KristinKali This show is not a contest.. it is far better than that from a musical perspective! It is about finding about about each other and diving in to each others world of experiences, passions and emotions. The challenge is to take that and to transform that into a musical gift to the one on the couch. That resulting gift is of course a mix between giver and the receiver in musical perspective. I would really encourage you to view a whole show. There is so much more in that than just the songs.
@@KristinKali She is incredible......... Loved your reactions to both of them a lot. Thank you so much for sharing not only the video but how you felt about this song........ :-)
this weekend (14 sept) is Floor sitting on the hotspot , they are gonna sing for her , songs who are special to her. i can hardly wait what they gonna do for her.
Kristin Kali, think that at that point no one had heard of Floor yet. They saw and heard her first time when she sang that song. And all were blown away how good she is.
No other sing had the confidence to attempt anything even close to opera! One singer each week takes their turn in the tribute seat. All of the other 6 singer sing either one of their songs or a song that influenced them. Done in each singers style! There are 2 other songs, both beautifully done. Next Saturday is Floor's turn to be honored. It should be interesting?
Funny you mention "Sleeping Beauty". if you listen to the second verse from "I Want My Tears Back", there's a line: The voice of Mary Costa. Mary Costa did the voice of Princess Aurora from "Sleepig Beauty".
each singer in the circle sings a song to the person in the HOT SEAT, today Floor sings the Vilja Lied to Henk Poort, a song his mom sang to him. Floor sings it in GERMAN like his mom did... :)
@@KristinKali Yeah, I was so happy for her. She is the best Rock singer for me. But what i like most about her, is that there is a total lack of superstar attitude. Look at some videos of interviews in her home. I do not agree with what the Nightwish thinks about evolution, etc., but I would not mind to have Floor as a best friend!
@@janspiljard I know exactly how you mean... Floor... i believe... is a class act... she knows she has a powerful gift and just freely gives of herself! I just love it! I don't like all of the Politics of NightWish but I do love ever so much that there is nothing like any of them!
@@KristinKali I think the guys in Nightwish are OK. But they are Scandinavians and Scandinavians are usually very closed people. Troy is not Scandinavian, but British. And i guess you know that with British people political correctness is paramount, :-). By the way, I am not one who pays for video reaction, but I have watched many of your reactions. Well done, very honest. And if you feel like crying, don't hold back. Every time I here The Poet and The Pendulum I cry. And I am a man of 60 years old, :-).
Sunday the other singers have to do her music. I hope that she will do a duet with Henk Poort (the old man) I hope in that case for Phantom of the opera.
Fred van t padje 👊❤️🗣OOOOH!! This will be truly magical!! I’m excited to see it too! I’ve just learned about this today! I love Floor! I only know her from Nightwish 🙂🙌💕
@@KristinKali This is all ready the 12th season of this show and there were so many great things over the years. Henk Poort was singing in the Phantom of the opera in 1993.
There are always people that love to place bad comments and dislikes, por individuals that want to make others feel bad to feel better themselves. As für the song... Actually it was the elderly guys night, he is uppers singer and his mother was singing this song for him, that's why he was almost in tears hearing her singing it for him
So, Lied(pronounced "Leet") is a specific form of German opera. The older gentleman is Henrik Poot, an opera singer of some repute, who also sings in this form. Tarja already had a reputation for her rendition of this form, when she joined Nightwish. If I'm correct, it seems like a circle has somehow been completed. I also stick to my refrain on some of these threads, Tarja and Floor are friends, and according to Floor , have frequent communications, read what you will into that.
Just an F.Y.I. you can buy dislikes for RUclips which is insane. You should react to all 3 she has done for this show. This is not close to being the best one.
ty for great reaction but scroll your list you have mis the Dutch folk song Mama. from Floor in originale clip you can find back the translated lyrics back than you understand why some where fighting tears .And evry 1 have a mom
I guess the comment of singers from other styles being judgmental is correct. I watched a video of the third show where she sings in Spanish, (someone made the great service of close captioning it in English) and some of the comments from the opera singer include that when he heard that Floor was singing a Rolf's song in a metal version he didn't expect that power and beauty, having the general notion of metal singers only screaming into their microphones. Those "panels" are usually know as trolls. You will find them all around the Internet.
Hello Kristin, I'm glad you're feeling better again - and that you found the time to watch Floor's first video at Beste Zangers. Here are the other two: ruclips.net/video/sj1ibZrjQTs/видео.html ruclips.net/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/видео.html Each video is a different style, that's also the sense of this meeting of the best singers from the Netherlands. It's not a competition, there's no winner. The participants only have to show how they deal with each other's material and how they put it into practice. I don't know any singer in this world who manages to throw me out of my shoes again and again. She has such variability in her voice that it's unbelievable. She is a gift to humanity
The older gentleman is teary-eyed because his mother sang that to him when he was a child. (He, and his mother were opera singers as I understand it).
GT1Man 👊❤️🗣Now that is a story,,, that I treasure to hear! What a truly Epic performance
This is why we love you.you dont give up on artists after the first listen.
I felt the same joy as you seeing this interpretation. Floor literally blew them away!!! They didn't knew what to expect, since Floor is almost unknown in her own country, because in Netherlands metal genres are not aired by public mass-media (radio / TV)! We're witnessing a page of history!...
Gabriel Bardac 👊❤️🗣They have no idea what they are Missing!! FLOOR IS SUPERB!!!
And not to mention she was the first one to perform in the first episode with this gem. Talking about setting a tone for the whole season. I would've hated to be Emma (younger female) and have to sing after this. OMFG (Oh My Floor Goddess)
And with Epica they have one of the best metal bands out of their own country. :)
Thanks, nice reaction. OMG, Floor is soo good, does not matter what she sings or what language. And she still, after 3 show, can surprise us and those other vocalists!

@@torbenjohansen6955 Oh I see i misunderstood. I thought you were wanting it to be on Spotify, instead of you meaning to say to her that it IS.
There is no one who can do it all like the Goddess Floor : ) , Another awesome reaction Kristin, thank you
Bridget McCracken 🙌❤️🗣Bridget! I am always so happy to see you! Thankyou for your sweet comments! I appreciate them so much!
She is the best i love Floor so much 😊😊
Beautiful single
Thank You Kristin. Excellent piece of art! Have a nice day, ❤ And Thank's for the Love in video! You Sweetheart!
Floor! 💖💝❤. I have no Words anymore. I Surrender. 😲
Joulu Pukki 👊❤️🗣You are so welcome! Thankyou 🙏💕💕😊 #ISURRENDERTOO!
Can’t wait to see you react to the new one. Que se siente. It is freaking incredible.
I'm transported no matter what Floor sings! 😃🤘
You get sooooo much more with FLOOR can’t say this enough love her 😁😁😁😁👩🏻🎤❤️

Older guy at couch is famous Opera singer in Netherlands who's mother used to sing this song when he was a kid. Floor sang this song for him.

Floor, one song she has a flower in her hair singing in spanish,turn the page,she is in leather and windmilling. Just in a lane of her own.
each singer in the circle sings a song to the person in the HOT SEAT, today Floor sings the Vilja Lied to Henk Poort, a song his mom sang to him. Floor sings it in GERMAN like his mom did... :)
A little late, I know. But they know Floor now in the Netherlands. She has won the Dutch Pop music award 2019 !
I LOVE AND ADMIRE FLOOR AND ALL OF NIGHTWISH!! Super epic!!

There all singers and they sing songs who she'd like or sings, andvthey are dutch.....they have every time someone els ;))))
Kiri Te Kanawa sang this in a concert once. She sang it slower.
You'll have to do Mama as well 😉
Just an F.Y.I. you can buy dislikes for RUclips which is insane. You should react to all 3 she has done for this show. This is not close to being the best one.
The most recent one is Spanish is utterly fantastic!
Ok! I think I shall! To show love to this amazing GODDESS AND HER LOYAL fans ☺️🙌💕
❤
You miss one song from floor on this show "mama"
@Kristin Kali bringing me my fix! You are so sweet!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻
ty for great reaction but scroll your list you have mis the Dutch folk song Mama. from Floor
in originale clip you can find back the translated lyrics back than you understand why some where fighting tears .And evry 1 have a mom
vic b 👊❤️Awwww Vic!! Thank goodness you said that!! I will play that last bc ... I’m a cryer! And then I can’t do any more reactions! 😁
God create human...human create music...human destroy music...god creat Floor Jansen...human learn to listen music...

Kristin the other singers are singing Floors songs next saturday
Hello Kristin, I'm glad you're feeling better again - and that you found the time to watch Floor's first video at Beste Zangers.
Here are the other two:
ruclips.net/video/sj1ibZrjQTs/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/видео.html
Each video is a different style, that's also the sense of this meeting of the best singers from the Netherlands. It's not a competition, there's no winner. The participants only have to show how they deal with each other's material and how they put it into practice.
I don't know any singer in this world who manages to throw me out of my shoes again and again. She has such variability in her voice that it's unbelievable.
She is a gift to humanity
Floor sabe o que faz
There's lots of miserable people that enjoy making others sad. There's also people who walk around listening to phones in their pockets. Ooops.
Hi Kristin. You looked a little dazed.
