Nu een keer een reactie in het Nederlands. Een gemiddelde van 100.000 per maand. Niet slecht en erg verdiend. Voor beiden. Leuk dat jij die getallen in de gaten houdt. Doet toch iets met je. Toch? Vooral ook omdat de reacties internationaal zijn. Zo'n exposure had je denk ik niet verwacht, toen je ja zei tegen dit programma.
Everyone is talking about Floor and her outstanding rendition and that's OK. I'm 100% agreed, she blow my mind! but what about Mr. HENK POORT? My goodness! WHAT A VOICE! ¡what a interpretation! he needs some compliments as well the man is an "original" Phantom on the Dutch version, is unbeliavable, I'm speechless for this amazing performance of these two incredible singers and I'm looking foward to Henk join Nightwish next Holland tour to kick some asses with this man on board Taking TPOTO to the next level. Respect to Miss Floor Jansen and Mr. Henk Poort.

floor did a great job, no question. but she had some misstakes in this song. but HE was a beast, nailed the song and really feelt it! how he acted was just incredible!
Henk was casted in the Dutch version of the Phantom so is bound to know the character really well. Which he totally brought out here it's amazing. Loved the Nightwish version and I was petitioning for them to do this from the start... And it's everything I hoped
That was indeed awsome 😀 I follow Floor and nightwish for a long time now. So I knew Floor is great in performing and singing . But Henk is also worldclass on this. Keep watching this over and over 😂❤️
She'll still be hitting that note in 20 years time ... because of her perfect technique Look at the likes of Jess Glynne and Adele - terrific singers constantly getting into trouble, needing throat surgery (unfortunately, in both cases, their "throatiness" is the main attraction - and it's the only way they know how to sing .. but it's abusive to their larynxes!) Floor is like Tom Jones and Sarah Vaughan - the older she gets, the more awesome her voice will be. She can sing anything! Heavy metal, opera (as you do ..), pop, shows, anything .. (except jazz - I've not heard her sing jazz yet ...)
@@jazzx251 and Lara Fabian could also be places in the category. The woman has a great technique, like you can visually see in her face the technique. ;) But I also lives how Hank sounds too technique wise, especially in the sound of silence
Lets apreciate mr Poort too. Chemistry between them is flawless. And the end, he pushed her to her best, magnificent piece of art. We love you Floor and respect for Henk
As a child, Floor adored Henk. That's why it is so much fun to see her singing with her hero. (Most Nightwish fans can't understand this, but Henk played the Phantom when she was just a kid)
Ma'am, not an upgrade but an alternative, allow me to present you Floor's "predecessor" in Nightwish, Tarja Turunen: ruclips.net/video/tL25rbnvM4o/видео.html
Floor asked Henk for this duet. He accepted on one condition: "I want to do it again with Nigthwish when they visit the Netherlands!" Which will be november 24, 2020. You know what? I've got tickets! I'll be there!
I just keep coming back to it. This version is probably the ultimate. There will never be a better rendition. They are both class acts. 10/10, Perfection.
I'm Dutch and I want to thank the 'rest of the world' for watching our Dutch program. It's amazing to read your comments and share our love for music. ❤️
I work in Netherlan for two years and i was surprised almost nobody knew about Floor, let alone about Nightwish. I'm glad that things changed, thx to this show. Floor Jansen is an amazing singer, best to listen live wich is perfection for me. PS: i love Netherland! :)
Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas sang this several years ago. Sarah's voice is a couple of notches above both Floor and Tarja..... but Floor has amazing lung capacity. I really like Tarja's voice. They are all great singers.
@@User32420 Floor is on her vocal peak. Just check a random newcomer teenager blowing overrated Floor away on the high notes, get real. ruclips.net/video/l1pDcHGFa-A/видео.html
I'm one of those persons who discovered Floor Jansen through this show. Been listening to Floor Jansen all week now and she manages to make me cry every single time! WTF is happening to me!? I never liked metal and now find myself looking for Nightwish concert tickets!?
Dit overstijgt alle genres en verbindt moderne muziek met klassiek. Een gevierd metalzangeres die voor het oog van de wereld opera durft te zingen met één van de besten op dat gebied en een gerespecteerd operazanger die het aandurft met een rauwe rockstem te zingen.... Adembenemend! Dit duo is zó veelzijdig, talentvol, open minded en moedig!!!
Ze heeft 2 jaar opera gestudeerd (via het conservatorium) toen ze op de rock-academie zat. Dus ze kent de adem and zang technieken goed. Luister ook een keer naar de aria van Pucinni die ze jaren geleden al een keer voor de Nederlandse tv heeft gezongen. ruclips.net/video/Od_qcbw3f5Q/видео.html
is wel niet de eerste x dat een metalband ( ik heb het dus niet enkel over zangers en zangeressen ) een opera-song speelt. Nightwish deed het al met Tarja ( hun eerste zangeres) en is even indrukwekkend. Aanrader om Floor nog eens te zien uitblinken: Romanticide ( Noghtwish ) live.
@@geerteertmans6697 Floor is ook regelmatig te horen als gast artiest voor Ayreon, waarbij ze haar Opera talent regelmatig laat horen. Zeker op The Source is ze weer geweldig. Ik denk diegene die haar werk al een tijd volgt, dit optreden niet als een verrassing zien, wel mooi ze nu eindelijk eens bij het grote publiek wat bekender word. Voor mij is Floor een van Nederlands beste zangeressen, en zeer ondergewaardeerd. Bijna schandelijk dat DJ's op de radio haast niet eens weten wie ze is...
"Een gevierd metalzangeres die voor het oog van de wereld opera durft te zingen" Doet ze al meer dan 20 jaar. Maar goed, het doet me deugd dat ook het "gewone" publiek kennis van haar neemt. En dat werd een keer tijd. PS: de link die Ronald boers poste zie je in het begin een klein meisje die verschrikt kijkt naar Floor tijdens de "impressie" video. Ze kan het haast niet geloven dat Floor in de studio dezelfde Floor is als in de video. Ook zie je de afgunstige gezichten van de dames en heren op middelbare leeftijd tijdens dat segment.
We all know floor is amazing - no doubt. But can we also just acknowledge the fact that Henk brought his distortion in to the game to match the Nightwish/metal style of the performance? Very very well done!
His work here is truly amazing, I'm not sure about his track record but for this performance he offers an absolutely marvelous reflection for Floor's more wandering and wistful tones. He understands the role of the phantom, a very dark character, and that's why he sounds so convincing. Of course even if he's acting superbly alone it won't do much and together with Floor's interpretation of Christine it gives them the opportunity to bounce off each other.
@@chardonnay5767 I'd recommend you Google "het spook van de opera" the original Dutch version ("Nederlandse versie") and listen to the performance by him and Joke Cruijff from 30 yrs ago. You'll be blown away, I think.
Not only that but Henk is somewhat of an idol for her because of his version of the phantom. So she is performing her dream with her idol. How amazingly cool
i'M THRILLED for Henk!!! He's the one singer who has been singing out of his comfort zone throughout the entire season. He finally gets to sing something operatic or close to it, lol.
He is well recognized and respected - and should be. They killed it together. I love how he looks at Floor with that proud mentor smile; The same smile the NW and Floor army use as we see her discovered by the rest of the world... Yes... we have known how good she is... from back in her After Forever days... Now you can enjoy her too. ;)
Imagine Tuomas at home, drinking a bottle of Imaginaerum wine, watching this performance and thinking: "what a lucky bastard I am, I have best singer in the world in my band and she can sing whatever I write". And then he smiles and pets his cat like an evil genius. We are very lucky that she chose metal and I hope that she never leave Nightwish! We love you Floor all over the world! We are waiting for some videos from your solo concerts! ♥
Finally, in the Netherlands they already know who Floor Jansen is. Nightwish and the rest of the world know who Henk, Tim, Samantha, Emma, Rolph and Ruben are. The creator of Beste Zangers is a genius
I came here to listen to Floor, but DAMN Hank just blew my mind. Expressiveness, technique, emotion, he commanded the stage and left me speechless. I can understand why the girls were flustered.
his decades of experience really shows. He really brings the theatrical style to his singing. I love that twirl he does before going hard in the 2nd half. I came for floor, but Hank impressed me just as much.
It has been 3 years since this performance and it is still one of the best performances of The Phantom of the Opera I have ever seen and heard. Henk Poort and Floor Jansen are spectacular.
The fact that Mr. Poort has played the Phantom of the Opera and is fully able to immerse himself in the performance, plus the fact that Mrs. Jansen was fully immersed as well makes this, hands down, the most epic and inspiring version of this song! You two killed it!!
Also, real talk: Henk’s last “Sing For Me” was said with such vigor and passion, it was so loud that it got picked up by his AND Floor’s mic, which made it sound like he was double tracked in the studio and made it even more impactful. God, this was marvelous.
eyelesbarrow I mean, there’s always a chance… But it wasn’t done in any of the other songs throughout the show and it’s so random that it would only be once in the song. It also sounds out of phase, which is achieved when two microphones aren’t in sync with each other simultaneously.
This was all topped by the Nightwish performance when Henk Poort joined them - the magnificence of this (exactly as is), but supplemented by the metal of Nightwish. Magnificent.
It's not just Floor, It was the choice to put Henk on the show as well that lead to this Epic finale. Without both of them this would not have been made possible. And the session players (band) contribute a lot to it as well. But everything makes this great: The (concept of the) show itself, the people, the emotions and the reactions during the songs make it complete. This season was exceptional and as mentioned an absolute Epic finale. It couldn't have ended any better. Love to everybody on the show.
Agreed. First time seeing this show - wholly due to my interest in Floor's singing - but was pleasantly surprised to find myself lured in to the personality stories and very much opened to genres of music I would normally skip over. Very cool show and very happy I stumbled across it.....and very sorry to see it end. What a wonderful ride this has been....
The hug at the end is everything to me. Once the song is finished they break "characters" and have huge smiles and they just look so happy to have sung together
When I heard that Floor had asked Henk to do Phantom of the opera I was so excited and could not wait to see it... All week long counting down the days and hours until the show was aired on BVN as I live in South Africa My expectations were high, very high and knew it was going to be epic...but I could not have even started to imagine it was going to be this epic.. what a performance... My expectations were surpassed beyond the end of the visible universe... As a Nightwish fan, I have my daily portion of Ghost Love story, poet and the pendulum, Greatest show on earth, Ever Dream, Storytime and many more but this one will clearly be on the top of my daily playlist.
I love coming back to this, not just for the absolutely phenomenal performance, but for the reactions from the rest of the singers. How they all supported each other on the show over-all was beautiful, but watching them sit there in complete awe of Floor and Henk adds something special to the entire experience.
What a legendary performance. My favorite moment is right around 2.28 when Henk drops into the gravely Phantom rock voice and every female in the room experienced a Henk-gasm. To my understanding he was not experienced or comfortable with this style. Yet he hits it with complete confidence and just crushes it. Floor's reaction is great. She had to know that this was coming, yet her excitement at hearing it is evident. I feel that this blunt force awesomeness on Henk's part causes Floor to take her performance from her normal 110 percent intensity to an even higher level, as if that is even possible. They both make it look easy, yet we all know that this is anything but. I have watched this 200 times at least and it still hits me right in the soul every time. Supreme excellence by Henk, and in my opinion Floor is the best female vocalist of any genre that I have ever seen. Thank you!!
Ze wist niet dat Henk dit zo zou zingen. Henk zegt ergens in een interview dat hij bij de generale repetitie op de klassieke manier zong. Hij deed dit om haar te verrassen en dat is hem duidelijk gelukt !
yeah here's the thing. Henk is originally an Opera singer so this was way out of his Ballpark. if u like this look up Henk's version of Sound of Silence. that's a banger as well
It wasn't recorded by anyone that would release it, but at ProgPower USA in 2007, there was an All-Star Jam wherein various artists joined Pagan's Mind (who served as the backing band for this occasion) on stage to sing a variety of covers. Floor sang Queen's "Who Wants To Live Forever?" with Ralph Scheepers, and to this day that is still the greatest performance I've ever seen. If you ask people that were there what they thought the highlight of the set was, there's a solid 80% chance they'll give you the same answer I did.
@Superpiair1 In their style, sure, but Floor can do many styles exceptionally well, her versatilty is unmatched imo. I can't think of any other who can growl, sing rock, metal, easy listening, opera, etcetera, at the same level as Floor.
@@homere-d-allaure That particular year came with a complete ban on digital cameras, so no amateur footage. The promoter told me some years ago that he may release the footage someday.
Was just amazing to hear it with the full band! She did this song with Henk on her solo performances in Amsterdam last year. That was also amazing, but of course different to how it is done with Nightwish.
@@eddymuller2367 I was there that night and here's a link for ya, the sound is not the best but don't fear......Floor in the beginning of the show, told us that this concert would be recorded. So in a few months you can expect a Blue Ray/DVD. ruclips.net/video/Kn8XRGOZ3VA/видео.html
Yep the last note was higher than her ending in ghost love score that so many doing first reactions to and its spreading .Nightwish will be the biggest metalband ever headliners at the biggest stages that are bigger than Wacken , why not switch drummers sabaton and nightwish she are sabaton drummers girlfriend.....i belive they can do the same songs with some training and they can be together with their child .
@@Vlad-wt8rl Floor didn't hit the high note as the original opera requires. I love Floor, this rendition was nice, but didn't give me goosebumps unlike with Sierra (with evidently better operatic skills...Not sure which version you've seen). There's a reason why Sierra is considered the best Christine ever - beautiful voice colour + fantastic soprano skills.
No she is not nailing every song, if you are a true fan of Nightwish you chould also know that Tarja have lot`s of more feeling to this song and many other songs of nightwish too. Floor is wherry good but she is harder at some songs than Tarja. Nemo is one of them and this song. But then again, Floor is not a opera singer ether so there you go.
@@tommyaleks100 Well Tarja might sound more operatic but does not claim to be an opera singer either. As for the rest, its much down to opinion. I never liked Nightwish before floor as I did not like the big vibrato from Tarja. As for Nemo, they are closer together in terms of quality, but I still prefer Floor on that one. There are very, very few songs with Tarja which which come close to Floor. Sleeping sun and stargazers come to mind.
Floor is such an amazing storyteller. She uses her whole body and face, as well as that stupendously gorgeous voice, to convey what she wants. And it's time for Henk to retire from opera and start his symphonic metal career.
Throughout the series Floor took us on a journey, I have never heard such a fantastic versatile singer. I knew her, no, I have to say I THOUGHT I knew her, but I did not know she was capable to do this. This duet is technically phenomenal , not one second screechy (like most of the female singers doing this) powerful but not shouty.. it is phenomenal really. We can easily say, that at this moment Floor is our best singer male/female. Period. What.A.Woman!!!
I prefer Floor to Tajra imo. I alwau thought that Tajta would be better for tjis tune as I have yet seen Floor sing it. Now after listening to this I may have to think 🤔
@@richiej316 Yeah Tarja is more a specialized soprano I think, so in that style her voice is more polished, but she can't match Floor's versatility. Also I think Tarja freestyles more in her timing, while Floor is more accurate in that.
"At this moment Floor is our best singer male/female. Period." *On the planet.* Period. Oh! She can do _death metal growls_ too - now there's a challenge for all the divas around the world!
I just shared this to my RUclips page and tried to say the same thing you did with less skill. I don't see another singer on the planet who can do what she does as well as she does. She might have betters in individual genres but nobody I know can do it all as well as she can. (I tried coming up with her male counterpart, but I'm drawing a complete blank.)
What I like so much about this version (besides the arrangement --I've always thought the musical score is a bit too tame) is that both of them have a very deep sound to their voice. It's a soprano and tenor piece, both the respective high voices for women and men, but despite the actual notes they both sound much fuller and richer than many of the singers for the musical production. Plus it's really kind of impressive how Henk Poort manages to have his vibrato stay /in time with the song/.
na 5 jaar kom ik hem toevallig weer tegen.. nog steeds kippenvel!! Die Henk met zijn rock strot fantastisch!!! Blijft een schitterende combi deze twee stemmen!!!
The more you watch this, the better it gets. They both do a great job until the last part. Then, it explodes. He knows exactly how to build it and floor reciprocates and then it goes mad. Fantastic job to both of them
Good afternoon, for your information, Henk was the Phantom in the musical over here in the Netherlands. So that's why he knew exactly how to react and perform. And this was indeed an epic performance.
This is masterpiece, perfect match. You can feel the charisma and energy between them, with the tone of the voice , acting and everything else he pulled the best out of her. They have huge respect for eachother, she started studying music because of him, and he sang in distorted voice just because she wanted it (he is opera singer , they never use distorted voice, on contrary they are thought to avoid distortion completely). Pure love, respect, energy and art.
Henk Poort has spoken at length in interviews how microphones allow him to distort his voice and create different effects while singing, a technique which he has used extensively while performing in musicals.
I didn't know any of that, thanks a lot for the info, I HAVE to check this guy out now, if he inspired Floor to start her career as a Valkyrie that's insane. I was straight up blown away by his voice. I do blues and rock (dabble, I'm not great like them) but after hearing that a male can sound like this, I am very interested in opera all of a sudden...
The old expression "Saving the best for last" not only applies to this episode, it applies to the entire season!! WOW... A season, this strong, this good, can only be ended one way, and that is with something epic. Well, if this isnt that EPIC ending we hoped for, then i dont know. Its simply amazing...
I've watched dozens of performances of this musical, I've been obsessed since I was ten and it was on Broadway. I don't think I've ever heard a better, more theatrical, menacing version of it.
American metal head here... and I'm effin bummed this Dutch TV show is over. I don't even watch TV since it's all crap, but man what a good show this was.
@@metalmanny666 I just watched it here on RUclips. There is a RUclipsr named Denise Hoff who did English subtitles for the entire season. She posted the latest show every Saturday.
This woman has it all, I came across her as a fan of Nightwish and in everything I have heard her do since I end up with tears of joy streaming down my face, laughing and crying at the same time, her projection of emotion is astounding. And now I have a journey discovering the works of Henk Poort to add to the Joy. Thank you Floor Jensen, the best voice I have ever heard.
@@apveening Thank you for the recommendations Bert, listened to both of them and I have to say, WOW, are they human. Why, when you turn on a radio do you get what you get ( would love to put some names in, but it's the internet, can't be negative ) and yet this music exists in the side wings, what have we become? Stay safe Bert.
Henk had a long career in opera and musical theater. In fact, he was the original Phantom in the Dutch production of the musical. Andrew Lloyd Weber himself considers Henk his favorite phantom, ahead of Michael Crawford and Ramin Karimloo
I love Henk's floorgasmic expression when Floor's singing the final notes, but equally great is Floor's reaction at 2:29 when Henk breaks out his rougher voice. She's like "hell yes this man must sing with Nightwish!"
When hank sing's " In all ur fantasies " ...i was so not ready for that , that was fucking amazing . trust me floor was not the only one to pull that face
Floor Jansen is one of the best things that had ever happened in my life. I was going through a really rough time back in the early 2000's and After Forever helped me getting out of it. Floor will always be my favorite.
Can we say this band is the sh*t?! Beste zangers is 8 episodes with 6 songs each. That's 48 songs! of all genres possible, rearranged to each singer... Pretty amazing!
Can You imagine that they supporting the artists for 12 seasons already? This was the 12th season for them also They are Top of the bill. And it was all live, really live.
Absolutely! It's fun to watch them switch instruments mid-performance without skipping a beat. And the arrangements all do such a great job of supporting the vocalists. I absolutely love the house band on this show.
immer wenn ich das höhre und sehe, habe ich tränen der Rührung in den Augen. Das Wort Phänomenal trifft es nicht ansatzweise. die beste Versin dieses Liedes überhaupt. Diese Stimmen, einfaach fantastisch.
Two years and over 16 million views later, still special! Thank you!

About the final high note: it’s not just a “high note”, it’s about HOW BEAUTIFUL AND CLEAN it sounds. She’s magnificent!
She'll still be hitting that note in 20 years time ... because of her perfect technique
Look at the likes of Jess Glynne and Adele - terrific singers constantly getting into trouble, needing throat surgery (unfortunately, in both cases, their "throatiness" is the main attraction - and it's the only way they know how to sing .. but it's abusive to their larynxes!)
Floor is like Tom Jones and Sarah Vaughan - the older she gets, the more awesome her voice will be.

I'm Dutch and I want to thank the 'rest of the world' for watching our Dutch program. It's amazing to read your comments and share our love for music. ❤️
A lot of us have commented elsewhere we WISH we had a tv program like this in the USA. It's superb, and really brings out the best in everyone.
ben van belgie .maar dat is ook de rest van de wereld hé!
Mexican Floor Jansen's fan here.
Thanks for giving us such a great singer.
🌻💚🖤
I work in Netherlan for two years and i was surprised almost nobody knew about Floor, let alone about Nightwish. I'm glad that things changed, thx to this show. Floor Jansen is an amazing singer, best to listen live wich is perfection for me. PS: i love Netherland! :)
Floor brought the world here and it's amazing.
The absolute version of this song, No others come close to the passion expressed. The voices are incomparable!!!
Check the original, this was not good, imo.
Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas sang this several years ago. Sarah's voice is a couple of notches above both Floor and Tarja..... but Floor has amazing lung capacity. I really like Tarja's voice. They are all great singers.
@@andrewsmith8729 Despite Floor with her quite sturdy body her high notes are surprisingly weak, so where did that lung capacity go.
@@yogajedi3337now I wanna hear you sing, you must be really good when you give this feedback
@@User32420 Floor is on her vocal peak. Just check a random newcomer teenager blowing overrated Floor away on the high notes, get real.

I'm one of those persons who discovered Floor Jansen through this show. Been listening to Floor Jansen all week now and she manages to make me cry every single time! WTF is happening to me!? I never liked metal and now find myself looking for Nightwish concert tickets!?
Welcome aboard!! 😊🤘❤️🤘
Btw there is a Discord group if you're interested. The Nightdreamers Reacticide I believe it's called?
Welcome to the Nightwish family, my friend!
WELCOME, we have been expecting you!
Welcome! I myself was late to the party. Wow this song is epic!
Dit overstijgt alle genres en verbindt moderne muziek met klassiek. Een gevierd metalzangeres die voor het oog van de wereld opera durft te zingen met één van de besten op dat gebied en een gerespecteerd operazanger die het aandurft met een rauwe rockstem te zingen.... Adembenemend! Dit duo is zó veelzijdig, talentvol, open minded en moedig!!!
Ze heeft 2 jaar opera gestudeerd (via het conservatorium) toen ze op de rock-academie zat. Dus ze kent de adem and zang technieken goed. Luister ook een keer naar de aria van Pucinni die ze jaren geleden al een keer voor de Nederlandse tv heeft gezongen. ruclips.net/video/Od_qcbw3f5Q/видео.html
Serieus?! Dat doet ze al 20 jaar.....
is wel niet de eerste x dat een metalband ( ik heb het dus niet enkel over zangers en zangeressen ) een opera-song speelt. Nightwish deed het al met Tarja ( hun eerste zangeres) en is even indrukwekkend. Aanrader om Floor nog eens te zien uitblinken: Romanticide ( Noghtwish ) live.
@@geerteertmans6697 Floor is ook regelmatig te horen als gast artiest voor Ayreon, waarbij ze haar Opera talent regelmatig laat horen. Zeker op The Source is ze weer geweldig.
Ik denk diegene die haar werk al een tijd volgt, dit optreden niet als een verrassing zien, wel mooi ze nu eindelijk eens bij het grote publiek wat bekender word.
Voor mij is Floor een van Nederlands beste zangeressen, en zeer ondergewaardeerd.
Bijna schandelijk dat DJ's op de radio haast niet eens weten wie ze is...
"Een gevierd metalzangeres die voor het oog van de wereld opera durft te zingen" Doet ze al meer dan 20 jaar. Maar goed, het doet me deugd dat ook het "gewone" publiek kennis van haar neemt. En dat werd een keer tijd.
PS: de link die Ronald boers poste zie je in het begin een klein meisje die verschrikt kijkt naar Floor tijdens de "impressie" video. Ze kan het haast niet geloven dat Floor in de studio dezelfde Floor is als in de video.
Ook zie je de afgunstige gezichten van de dames en heren op middelbare leeftijd tijdens dat segment.
Henk: sing for me my Angel of music
Floor: hold my beer
Wine. Not beer. She had wine this time....;)
hold my Nightwish
hahahahahahahah
Win!
Hold my cosmo
4 years later, still goosebumbs! What a pair of voices 👌 masterpiece 👌
Am I the only one that keeps coming back again and again to watch all of Floor's performances on this show?
No, same here!
Always coming back ❤️
no i AM HERE !!!
Nope probably come back at least once a week
We never left✌🏻
Henk : "sing for me my Angel of music"
Everyone: Well said Henk 👏
Yes!! 😊
Sing for me my Valkyrie
The last part was like an angel singing for sure. Breathtaking..
@@spiderpig9777 and everybody on couch's reaction explained it all
Marco: Hey! Those are my lyrics! ;-)
We all know floor is amazing - no doubt. But can we also just acknowledge the fact that Henk brought his distortion in to the game to match the Nightwish/metal style of the performance? Very very well done!
Henk didn't go unnoticed !!! he was embraced by the nightwish army (internationally) for this performance
I would love to see Henk as an invited artist for either an upcoming nightwish studio album or live performance.
His work here is truly amazing, I'm not sure about his track record but for this performance he offers an absolutely marvelous reflection for Floor's more wandering and wistful tones. He understands the role of the phantom, a very dark character, and that's why he sounds so convincing. Of course even if he's acting superbly alone it won't do much and together with Floor's interpretation of Christine it gives them the opportunity to bounce off each other.
@@chardonnay5767 I'd recommend you Google "het spook van de opera" the original Dutch version ("Nederlandse versie") and listen to the performance by him and Joke Cruijff from 30 yrs ago. You'll be blown away, I think.
He is amazing singer- actor
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nog altijd de beste versie van dit nummer die ik ooit heb gehoord
Also, loooove how Floor is living a dream here. You can see it. This duet, with a real life Phantom.
And one of the best at that!!!
AMEN!
@Drakon he played the phantom in the netherlands 25 years back
@Drakon Henk Poort played The Phantom for several years.
Not only that but Henk is somewhat of an idol for her because of his version of the phantom. So she is performing her dream with her idol. How amazingly cool
I came here for Floor but I'll give Henk Poort his props too. Outstanding duo here.
The part "in all your fantasies..." Of him blew my mind. Soooo powerful 👍
@@mohi6414 yes insanely well done by henk
IMO Hank is a beast of a singer ....true respect
Was just gonna say the same thing when he goes into full on rock mode it's quite amazing
i'M THRILLED for Henk!!! He's the one singer who has been singing out of his comfort zone throughout the entire season. He finally gets to sing something operatic or close to it, lol.
And he threw in some distortion. Outstanding. What a great performance.
It is the nightwish version
@TheBluearmy33 they will! He will join floor at her solo tour in the Netherlands or the nightwish. Not really sure
He is well recognized and respected - and should be. They killed it together. I love how he looks at Floor with that proud mentor smile; The same smile the NW and Floor army use as we see her discovered by the rest of the world... Yes... we have known how good she is... from back in her After Forever days... Now you can enjoy her too. ;)
@@musiclovertje12 Both (Solo tour and Nightwish concert in Amsterdam)
Nog steeds beste performance van beste zangers hier komt niemand overheen...
The voices, the music, the chemistry, and the audience reaction make this the best performance on this show ever ❤
Agreed, especially the ecstatic audience at the end!
❤❤❤❤yessss
Have you seen nightwish?
@@harrysobalvarro9184 yes 🥰
Wow .. 😮❤❤❤❤❤
This is so addictive, I have to see this over and over again.
Same here, and I usually can´t stand Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Same
so this is the definitive version of Phantom for now? (minus the I am the mask it's me they hear mix up) Who cares, this was awesome!
@@recordstoresbelgium3259 Nightwish deed het al eerder: ruclips.net/video/8VgLKXD-BoY/видео.html Maar alle uitvoeringen zijn fantastisch!
I seriously watch this like 12 times a night
Imagine Tuomas at home, drinking a bottle of Imaginaerum wine, watching this performance and thinking: "what a lucky bastard I am, I have best singer in the world in my band and she can sing whatever I write". And then he smiles and pets his cat like an evil genius.
We are very lucky that she chose metal and I hope that she never leave Nightwish! We love you Floor all over the world! We are waiting for some videos from your solo concerts! ♥
Now he just has to write some songs that make use of this power. Endless forms was a bit bland in that regard.

Personal Q: Who is better, Tarja or Floor? Greetings from Holland
Listening to Floor Jansen and Henk Poort sing 'the Phantom of the Opera' is probably the only way to experience heaven while still alive!
RUclips: How many times are you gonna watch this?
Me: YES
This
Hahaha same!
Same here 😆
😂😂😂 10 times in a row by now 🙆 It's still not enough ❤️
LOLOL - Very true
Finally, in the Netherlands they already know who Floor Jansen is. Nightwish and the rest of the world know who Henk, Tim, Samantha, Emma, Rolph and Ruben are. The creator of Beste Zangers is a genius
Actually, this show is finally her mainstream breakthrough in The Netherlands. Before that, mostly just metalfans knew her.
They should hv known since Shallow was on top of Netherland's itune chart..

I came here to listen to Floor, but DAMN Hank just blew my mind. Expressiveness, technique, emotion, he commanded the stage and left me speechless. I can understand why the girls were flustered.
his decades of experience really shows. He really brings the theatrical style to his singing. I love that twirl he does before going hard in the 2nd half. I came for floor, but Hank impressed me just as much.
Henk was “the Phantom” in the Dutch production.
Then you really have to listen to the song the sound of silence of Henk Poort @ de beste zangers! It's awesome!!
Already 25 million views!!!!! Still the best duet ever, play it at least once a month and still goosebumps 👌
Yes, this is all the fans wished for since the start of the Beste Zangers!!!
It has been 3 years since this performance and it is still one of the best performances of The Phantom of the Opera I have ever seen and heard.
Henk Poort and Floor Jansen are spectacular.
Prefiro a Tarja com Marko❤
@@micheledjubatie9212 Marko y Tarja son espectaculares.

Ik kijk nog heel vaak!!!!!!
Ik kijk nog heel vaak! Blijft fenomenaal!
Wonderful, March 2024💐
They don't 'sing' the song........the 'are' the song. Both incredible!! Perfect together!!
The fact that Mr. Poort has played the Phantom of the Opera and is fully able to immerse himself in the performance, plus the fact that Mrs. Jansen was fully immersed as well makes this, hands down, the most epic and inspiring version of this song! You two killed it!!
The Nightwish's version of the song is also great
Also, real talk: Henk’s last “Sing For Me” was said with such vigor and passion, it was so loud that it got picked up by his AND Floor’s mic, which made it sound like he was double tracked in the studio and made it even more impactful. God, this was marvelous.
Are you sure this wasn't some kind of intended technical trick ?
eyelesbarrow I mean, there’s always a chance… But it wasn’t done in any of the other songs throughout the show and it’s so random that it would only be once in the song. It also sounds out of phase, which is achieved when two microphones aren’t in sync with each other simultaneously.
Well, you got a point. And it really happened as you describe it, it would make it even more special.
Same with her last note too. At the climax of the note midway you can hear it also through his mic double-dipping.
ohh so that was what it was! thanks for clarifying
This is the first time I have listened to Floor Jansen... she sounds amazing... Now, they are my favorite performance of The Phantom of the Opera🥺
Listen the originals Tarja and MARKO in Nightwish and you’ll see an epic performance better than this one for trillions away
Sarah Brightman is the best!!!
@@Alysonmarie-2399 the originals is sarah brightman , not tarja
This was all topped by the Nightwish performance when Henk Poort joined them - the magnificence of this (exactly as is), but supplemented by the metal of Nightwish. Magnificent.
@@fredverkerk838 The original is not always the best... For me this is the best version, the original version lacks energy compared to this one.
It's not just Floor, It was the choice to put Henk on the show as well that lead to this Epic finale. Without both of them this would not have been made possible. And the session players (band) contribute a lot to it as well. But everything makes this great: The (concept of the) show itself, the people, the emotions and the reactions during the songs make it complete. This season was exceptional and as mentioned an absolute Epic finale. It couldn't have ended any better. Love to everybody on the show.
The band have been so versatile with flawless instrumentals and backing vocals for all the performances.
Agreed.
First time seeing this show - wholly due to my interest in Floor's singing - but was pleasantly surprised to find myself lured in to the personality stories and very much opened to genres of music I would normally skip over.
Very cool show and very happy I stumbled across it.....and very sorry to see it end.
What a wonderful ride this has been....
Awesome season!! Perfect finale ❤
The hug at the end is everything to me. Once the song is finished they break "characters" and have huge smiles and they just look so happy to have sung together
When I heard that Floor had asked Henk to do Phantom of the opera I was so excited and could not wait to see it...
All week long counting down the days and hours until the show was aired on BVN as I live in South Africa
My expectations were high, very high and knew it was going to be epic...but I could not have even started to imagine it was going to be this epic.. what a performance...
My expectations were surpassed beyond the end of the visible universe...
As a Nightwish fan, I have my daily portion of Ghost Love story, poet and the pendulum, Greatest show on earth, Ever Dream, Storytime and many more but this one will clearly be on the top of my daily playlist.
Wow wow ❤️Amazing 🎶❤️🎶
Yessss thiiiiis
As a fellow Saffa I must concur. Now if only we can convince Floor/Nightwish to come do a show or twobdown here....;) man that was SO good
@@elmarm66 If we only could be that lucky and I am sure they could fill the FNB stadium
@@kplkasteel easy. Cape town stadium too, but i'd love to see em in more intimate setting at grandwest arena. Me and 10000 of my friends :)
I love coming back to this, not just for the absolutely phenomenal performance, but for the reactions from the rest of the singers. How they all supported each other on the show over-all was beautiful, but watching them sit there in complete awe of Floor and Henk adds something special to the entire experience.
Everybody is talking about Floor and Henk. It's fenomenal but I'd like to have a big shout out to the band. Who's with me?
We all are.
De complimenten zijn zeker al vaak gemaakt voor de fantastische band ! Lees de bijna 5000 reacties maar na ! :):):)
That voice mix power in the last verse is priceless (I dont know a proper vocal term in English)
Absolutely, band is amazing at all time of the show🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
Agreed, but have you heard her band, Nightwish? Look up Floor singing "Ghost Love Score" live with her band. It will blow your socks off!

What a legendary performance. My favorite moment is right around 2.28 when Henk drops into the gravely Phantom rock voice and every female in the room experienced a Henk-gasm. To my understanding he was not experienced or comfortable with this style. Yet he hits it with complete confidence and just crushes it. Floor's reaction is great. She had to know that this was coming, yet her excitement at hearing it is evident. I feel that this blunt force awesomeness on Henk's part causes Floor to take her performance from her normal 110 percent intensity to an even higher level, as if that is even possible. They both make it look easy, yet we all know that this is anything but. I have watched this 200 times at least and it still hits me right in the soul every time. Supreme excellence by Henk, and in my opinion Floor is the best female vocalist of any genre that I have ever seen. Thank you!!
Ze wist niet dat Henk dit zo zou zingen. Henk zegt ergens in een interview dat hij bij de generale repetitie op de klassieke manier zong.
Hij deed dit om haar te verrassen en dat is hem duidelijk gelukt !
Henk-gasm :')
Why should should only the females experience a Henk-Gasm tho :p
yeah here's the thing. Henk is originally an Opera singer so this was way out of his Ballpark. if u like this look up Henk's version of Sound of Silence. that's a banger as well
Floors reaction to it is like "F*CK YEAH!"
I heard a lot of version and this is by far my favorite.
Finally floor gets the recognition what she deserves.
She's the best female singer in world since 2013.
The wacken 2013 is Legendary.
It wasn't recorded by anyone that would release it, but at ProgPower USA in 2007, there was an All-Star Jam wherein various artists joined Pagan's Mind (who served as the backing band for this occasion) on stage to sing a variety of covers.
Floor sang Queen's "Who Wants To Live Forever?" with Ralph Scheepers, and to this day that is still the greatest performance I've ever seen. If you ask people that were there what they thought the highlight of the set was, there's a solid 80% chance they'll give you the same answer I did.
She's the best singer in the world since 1997 when she begin singing with after forever
@Superpiair1 In their style, sure, but Floor can do many styles exceptionally well, her versatilty is unmatched imo.
I can't think of any other who can growl, sing rock, metal, easy listening, opera, etcetera, at the same level as Floor.
@@DeathUnlimited04 Is there a video ? Even an amateur one ?
@@homere-d-allaure That particular year came with a complete ban on digital cameras, so no amateur footage. The promoter told me some years ago that he may release the footage someday.

Was just amazing to hear it with the full band!
She did this song with Henk on her solo performances in Amsterdam last year. That was also amazing, but of course different to how it is done with Nightwish.
10-15 seconds final belt, during the live concert of Nightwish. Contentment
Hope we get to watch this somewhere with good audio, can't get enough of this.
Yo dont leave me alone in my misery. Some sauce? A link?
@@eddymuller2367 I was there that night and here's a link for ya, the sound is not the best but don't fear......Floor in the beginning of the show, told us that this concert would be recorded. So in a few months you can expect a Blue Ray/DVD. ruclips.net/video/Kn8XRGOZ3VA/видео.html
I'm sure Henk has done this song with outstanding female singers in the past, but he looked thrilled with this performance.
@Micheal j nemo He did the dutch version of the musical in 1993 but this was way better
Daar sluit ik me bij aan. Geweldig dit.
Joke de Kruijf was pretty amazing as well but I always hated the Dutch lyrics.
So glad Floor got Henk to this with the proper lyrics.
@@melvingibsons812 Seconded, Joke was absolutely stellar in her own right. But translation/localization is always a mixed bag sadly :/
@@melvingibsons812

Believe it or not this is the first time I have heard this. Goosebumps is the word!! Such a stunning and beautiful voice!!! Amazing.
The fist time I heard this , I kept it repeat for many times , keep looking for Nightwish with Floor ,you wouldn’t be disappointed
@@bannette7722 Floor Live.....better than CD
I can confidently say that this is the most impressive thing I have ever seen
Me too! :)
Maybe you would like to see this song performed by Sierra Boggess with Ramin Karimloo :)
Yep the last note was higher than her ending in ghost love score that so many doing first reactions to and its spreading .Nightwish will be the biggest metalband ever headliners at the biggest stages that are bigger than Wacken , why not switch drummers sabaton and nightwish she are sabaton drummers girlfriend.....i belive they can do the same songs with some training and they can be together with their child .
Kombašan Pracka Floor is by far superior
@@Vlad-wt8rl Floor didn't hit the high note as the original opera requires.
I love Floor, this rendition was nice, but didn't give me goosebumps unlike with Sierra (with evidently better operatic skills...Not sure which version you've seen). There's a reason why Sierra is considered the best Christine ever - beautiful voice colour + fantastic soprano skills.
this is singing on a whole another level... we mortals only bear witness to the glory of it...
Beautiful sentence
Serhat Düger muhteşem yorum, muhteşem...
The pathetic video was overplayed... so are the comments.... :D
Haha I felt the same
She is surely skilled and talented, but for the "whole another level"... I recommend you to hear this song from the coloratura soprano Sierra Bogges.
Raise your hand if you are part of the Nightwish army watching Floor nailing every single song!🙌
I'm coming from After Forever army... ; )
🙌
No she is not nailing every song, if you are a true fan of Nightwish you chould also know that Tarja have lot`s of more feeling to this song and many other songs of nightwish too. Floor is wherry good but she is harder at some songs than Tarja. Nemo is one of them and this song. But then again, Floor is not a opera singer ether so there you go.
@@tommyaleks100 Well Tarja might sound more operatic but does not claim to be an opera singer either. As for the rest, its much down to opinion. I never liked Nightwish before floor as I did not like the big vibrato from Tarja. As for Nemo, they are closer together in terms of quality, but I still prefer Floor on that one.
There are very, very few songs with Tarja which which come close to Floor. Sleeping sun and stargazers come to mind.
@@tommyaleks100 Tarja was terrible in many songs ! i never was fan of Nightwish before Floor, because of Tarja's irritating vibrato !

Legend has it that when Mrs. Jansen sings, the Universe stop it's expansion to listen for a while...
Would't me surprise if it did. :-)

Opera, Rock and musical theatre in a very high level. We don't see this very often. This is classic.
Floor is such an amazing storyteller. She uses her whole body and face, as well as that stupendously gorgeous voice, to convey what she wants. And it's time for Henk to retire from opera and start his symphonic metal career.
And she is such a lovely, warm, giving wise woman!!
i agree man
Hank will sing on Amsterdam with Nightwish next year.
@@WolfAZA I'd love to be there, but the chances are very small. I really like the way both Floor and Henk are open to different styles of music.
HatariSamaki nightwish Amsterdam: sold out!!!! Don’t know if they are all (new) nightwish-fans or Floor-fans.....
Throughout the series Floor took us on a journey, I have never heard such a fantastic versatile singer. I knew her, no, I have to say I THOUGHT I knew her, but I did not know she was capable to do this. This duet is technically phenomenal , not one second screechy (like most of the female singers doing this) powerful but not shouty.. it is phenomenal really. We can easily say, that at this moment Floor is our best singer male/female. Period. What.A.Woman!!!
I prefer Floor to Tajra imo. I alwau thought that Tajta would be better for tjis tune as I have yet seen Floor sing it. Now after listening to this I may have to think 🤔
@@richiej316 Yeah Tarja is more a specialized soprano I think, so in that style her voice is more polished, but she can't match Floor's versatility. Also I think Tarja freestyles more in her timing, while Floor is more accurate in that.
"At this moment Floor is our best singer male/female. Period." *On the planet.* Period. Oh! She can do _death metal growls_ too - now there's a challenge for all the divas around the world!
I just shared this to my RUclips page and tried to say the same thing you did with less skill. I don't see another singer on the planet who can do what she does as well as she does. She might have betters in individual genres but nobody I know can do it all as well as she can. (I tried coming up with her male counterpart, but I'm drawing a complete blank.)
Twee professionals met geweldige stemmen stijgen boven zichzelf uit. Een magisch tijdloos resultaat ontstaat!
It's almost two years and I can't get enough of this performance. Outstanding duo

i didnt know Floor! But what a super combination is this with Henk, its really incredible! I listen this this video for just 10 times. I want more....
@@ruudsmittenaar6098 if you want more Floor I reccomend watching/listening to Nightwish at Wacken in 2013. ;)
The fact that not just her high notes are crips and sharp, but her lows as well. Not breathieness, no forced sounds, NOTHING. IMPECCABLE!
What I like so much about this version (besides the arrangement --I've always thought the musical score is a bit too tame) is that both of them have a very deep sound to their voice. It's a soprano and tenor piece, both the respective high voices for women and men, but despite the actual notes they both sound much fuller and richer than many of the singers for the musical production. Plus it's really kind of impressive how Henk Poort manages to have his vibrato stay /in time with the song/.
Floor is a classical and metal Valkyrie goddess with her incredible and versatile vocals !
One "like" is not enough! Absolutely stunning rendition.

The more you watch this, the better it gets. They both do a great job until the last part. Then, it explodes. He knows exactly how to build it and floor reciprocates and then it goes mad. Fantastic job to both of them
Good afternoon, for your information, Henk was the Phantom in the musical over here in the Netherlands. So that's why he knew exactly how to react and perform. And this was indeed an epic performance.
This is masterpiece, perfect match. You can feel the charisma and energy between them, with the tone of the voice , acting and everything else he pulled the best out of her. They have huge respect for eachother, she started studying music because of him, and he sang in distorted voice just because she wanted it (he is opera singer , they never use distorted voice, on contrary they are thought to avoid distortion completely). Pure love, respect, energy and art.
Henk Poort has spoken at length in interviews how microphones allow him to distort his voice and create different effects while singing, a technique which he has used extensively while performing in musicals.
Wauw
I didn't know any of that, thanks a lot for the info, I HAVE to check this guy out now, if he inspired Floor to start her career as a Valkyrie that's insane. I was straight up blown away by his voice. I do blues and rock (dabble, I'm not great like them) but after hearing that a male can sound like this, I am very interested in opera all of a sudden...
The old expression "Saving the best for last" not only applies to this episode, it applies to the entire season!! WOW...
A season, this strong, this good, can only be ended one way, and that is with something epic.
Well, if this isnt that EPIC ending we hoped for, then i dont know.
Its simply amazing...
I've watched dozens of performances of this musical, I've been obsessed since I was ten and it was on Broadway. I don't think I've ever heard a better, more theatrical, menacing version of it.
I love that they are not just singing the song but performing the musical!
What the Henk.. We've been Floored guys...
Hahahah
Want to give this more thumbs....
You’ve been waiting the whole season for this comment, didn’t you?! 😂😂
This comment needs more likes 😂😂
Hahahahaha that made my day😂
American metal head here... and I'm effin bummed this Dutch TV show is over. I don't even watch TV since it's all crap, but man what a good show this was.
Jesse Gilbert what channel was it on? I have Spectrum.
@@metalmanny666 I just watched it here on RUclips. There is a RUclipsr named Denise Hoff who did English subtitles for the entire season. She posted the latest show every Saturday.
Jesse Gilbert oh ok. Thanks Denise.
Jesse Gilbert there are 12 seasons, and they will be back next year so enough to watch🤷🏼♂️
Fellow American metal head here - I'm in the same boat. This show is amazing.
Gotta come back and watch this every so often. Still gives me goosebumps!
This woman has it all, I came across her as a fan of Nightwish and in everything I have heard her do since I end up with tears of joy streaming down my face, laughing and crying at the same time, her projection of emotion is astounding. And now I have a journey discovering the works of Henk Poort to add to the Joy. Thank you Floor Jensen, the best voice I have ever heard.
As a short side trip on that journey, watch (and especially hear) them together doing Dangerous Games and Sweet Curse.
@@apveening Thank you for the recommendations Bert, listened to both of them and I have to say, WOW, are they human. Why, when you turn on a radio do you get what you get ( would love to put some names in, but it's the internet, can't be negative ) and yet this music exists in the side wings, what have we become? Stay safe Bert.
Henk had a long career in opera and musical theater. In fact, he was the original Phantom in the Dutch production of the musical. Andrew Lloyd Weber himself considers Henk his favorite phantom, ahead of Michael Crawford and Ramin Karimloo
Yes, Floors voice is the best that I have ever had the pleasure to hear 🙏😊👍
Same here. Came here from the nightwish concert video. But this lady is something!
I love Henk's floorgasmic expression when Floor's singing the final notes, but equally great is Floor's reaction at 2:29 when Henk breaks out his rougher voice. She's like "hell yes this man must sing with Nightwish!"
When hank sing's " In all ur fantasies " ...i was so not ready for that , that was fucking amazing . trust me floor was not the only one to pull that face
My wish was granted. That note. And the whole thing was EPIC. Henk was building it up for floor like a PRO.
Ladies and gentlemen....floor jansen aka the beast of metal!!!!! LOVE his voice soo much!!!!!
Floor Jansen is one of the best things that had ever happened in my life. I was going through a really rough time back in the early 2000's and After Forever helped me getting out of it. Floor will always be my favorite.
Have you watched Emma Heesters singing Strong to Floor?
If not you should.
@@douglascampbell9809 No, but i'm doing it right now. :D
This is one of the greatest vocal performances I have ever witnessed. Both floor and Henk just made history.
Can we say this band is the sh*t?! Beste zangers is 8 episodes with 6 songs each. That's 48 songs! of all genres possible, rearranged to each singer... Pretty amazing!
al lws A little more: 7 shows 6 songs, plus duets 7 songs plus Opening (beach)song and Ibiza closing song. (51)
al lws I thought you said: this band is shit. And I was about to get real mad :) But yeah your right!
Can You imagine that they supporting the artists for 12 seasons already? This was the 12th season for them also They are Top of the bill. And it was all live, really live.
Absolutely! It's fun to watch them switch instruments mid-performance without skipping a beat. And the arrangements all do such a great job of supporting the vocalists. I absolutely love the house band on this show.
Are we counting the RUclips episode with the RUclips cover artists?
immer wenn ich das höhre und sehe, habe ich tränen der Rührung in den Augen. Das Wort Phänomenal trifft es nicht ansatzweise. die beste Versin dieses Liedes überhaupt. Diese Stimmen, einfaach fantastisch.
