If you watch the movie again, you will have to wait all the way to the end, because it is only sung over the end credits. However there is a very good original version out here on YT were M83 & Susanne Sundfør performed it live in a US talk show (Jimmy Kimmel).
In the version she sang that was on the album, I really was impressed not just whit her vibrato but how she _USED_ it. It was striking and beautiful. Still. Floor, eh?
Hi ginger and Mike. This is not a reaction specific on your reaction on our queen Floor! My name is kees (pronounced case) from the netherlands 57 year old super floor and nightwish fan and my wife (59 name Demi) also a big fan of both. You know ginger ..my wife looks a lot like you or maybe used to look a lot like you when she was in her good health. For years she's suffering from severe reumatic arthritis and other severe healthproblems and thus she is in great pain every minute of every day.. wheelchair bound she tries to hang in there but it is getting so hard for her. And than i see you sitting there with that Smile and energy she used to have..and it gets to me.. What I would give to turn back the years to have her for just 24 hours in good health and spirrit...watching you is like watching Demi 10 years ago... it hurts knowing that each day now is as good as it gets....keep up reacting to floor and nightwish! I love it! Best of Luck and stay healthy .health and love are the only things that realy matter in life. X
There is no absolute reason, we all defend what we like although in this case the talent is not ours, in conclusion everything is a matter of tastes and perspectives of each person.
Unless I'm mistaken, and obviously I could be, the arrangements and guitar playing on some of Floors' cover versions are done by Tommy Johansson from Sabaton. Check out his solo stuff by the way. Phenominal. Love the reactions btw.
Heard this when it was released, Floor always amazes me how she can sing any genre like it was made for her. She just keeps getting better with time. Thx for the great react guys :).
Really great you guys love Floor. Funnily enough so do I, and I love you guys too. Makes the world round again :). As to Floors'interpretation of this song: it is just amazing, it really encapsulates the movie for me, with its almost depressing, full of tension, unreal, not knowing what to expect start, becoming haunting, sad, and stays that way always with that tension, with a glimmer of hope at the end, and maybe a new beginning. With this music in mind you need to see the movie again. I have seen it 3 times already, possibly even 4, but this performance, just embodies it completely for me, with the way Floor pierces your heart and lets you feel the emotions she thinks are the ones that go with this movie. And, oh, how they do! Wow! The perfect interpretation, according to me, by an out of this world master performer, story teller, and vocalist. Thank you very much again for your reaction, loved it! Love, warmest regards, Wim
Hello guys! Thanks! I'm seeing 386 "likes" and Z-E-R-O "dislikes" above as I type this. Just about what I would expect after another great reaction! Keep up the good work! ... T.C.

GInger and Mike, do check out M83 as well. For example: Kim and Jessie. Or Midnight City. Perfect entry songs into the world of Anthony Gonzalez, the French master of instant 80s nostalgia.
it is amazing that people think singing is a competition all the time, this person sings this better than that blah, blah, blah...it all just comes down to personal taste so it always amuses me when people get so "Floor is the best singer in the world" or "nice but Suzanne sing this song so much better!" as if it matters at all!! Just enjoy the music (or not) and be grateful there are still people willing and financially able to create music for us to listen to given the sad state the industry is in!
I have to agree. I’m quite pleased that there is not just one, but two versions of such a good song, both done very well. An embarrassment of riches, as they say. It’s a nice problem to have - G
Is there anything she can't do?? I know he left Nightwish, but can you imagine Marco and Floor doing a cover of Disney's A whole new World? That would have been epic! Thanks for the video guys! 👍👍 Oh yeah, Ginger you're looking absolutely gorgeous as always! 😍
I have to admit, that I didn't know the original version of this song (it's a bit outside of what I listen to usually). But I can tell you, that I do love this version by Floor. Floor is just so versatile and she can put so much emotion into the songs she's performing. She is a real vocal storyteller.
Another song to add to the file marked "Songs Floor Improved". 🤘💜🔥 All respect to Susanne, but her voice sounds so light and underpowered in comparison. Tommy Johansson from Sabaton did the arrangement and most of the instruments. That's Hannes on drums, too.
The arrangement is totally different, and in the context of the music of the original I think Susanne Sundfør is perfect. But the versions are too different to compare side by side, in my opinion. If you check out the original, do the Jimmy Kimmel live version.
Tommy Johansson has done the arrangement on her last three covers (maybe four). He is the guitarist from Sabaton - so I’m guessing some tall Swedish dude Floor knows is probably chipping in on the drums as well 🤪. I’m hoping there is a full collaboration between Floor and Tommy in the works!! 🙏🤘
Fun reaction. I don't know the original but floor let every song sound devine. She definitly should release a compilation of her covers on CD. I would instand buy it.
Hey, when you do it again, hear to Floors own backing vocals. All Covers she done, she do it in her Floor Syle, but with full respect for the original. Awesome
@@ChrisPage68 you follow Floor, you don’t follow Susanne. This would be pointless. ;)) Check out the Susanne Sundfør/M83 live version (uploaded by Davieeee87). It’s a terrific performance.
Floor would SLAY on a Bond movie - whether acting or singing. I want to hear her sing For Your Eyes Only, or All-Time High by Rita Coolidge, from Octopussy.
Hi Mike & Ginger, love your reactions. May I suggest you react to a Dutch band called The Gathering. Their original female singer was Anneke van Giersbergen (who has also guested for many artists and appeared alongside Floor for Ayreon) and was one of Floor's inspirations. In particular, their concert TG25 at Doornroosje where their previous band members reunited for their 25th Anniversary. There are no bad songs and my favourites are Travel for Anneke's singing and I Can See Four Miles (Mike should like the guitar sounds). You might also want to react to: Anathema - "A Natural Disaster" from their concert DVD "A Sort of Homecoming" Oceans of Slumber - "The Banished Heart" (Official video)
I have seen in your list of videos that you already did a react on Eivør, but I would love to propose another one: Falling Free ruclips.net/video/KNPIdGBn7M4/видео.html She has a unique and distinctive voice, one you recognize immediately. You won't regret it, I promise.
Hello Mike and Ginger, what a great cover version of "Oblivion" by Floor. Personally I think this is her best home session so far, but you can expect everything from Floor, the sky is the limit for her. And with this music arranger anything is possible, maybe a James Bond title song, who knows in the future. Floor can handle it very well vocally. The music is arranged and produced by Tommy Johansson. Tommy is the guitarist in Sabaton, Floor's husband is the drummer in this band. It is enjoying again and I am curious what is to come, although every artist naturally prefers to be on stage in front of an audience
Girl has guns 🤣 as floor said in a interview she doesn't do weights but it's from working on her land hitting in posts for her horses. Great reaction again guys
That comment about Floor's guns - I know what you mean! For me it's kind of disconcerting (in a good way), quite the dichotomy. On the one hand you have an amazingly beautiful, ethereal, feminine voice...and on the other, THOSE GUNS. My brain has a hard time rectifying the two.
I used to think Steve Perry, Karen Carpenter and Andy Williams were the best ever singers BUT wow Floor is a hundred times better than anyone ever !!!!
It didn't twig to me that this was from the the movie, until Floor asked on her channel, if anyone had seen the movie. The penny then dropped😁 Floor just doing Floor things😁😁😁
Beautiful song, but not a challenge for Floor. Doesn't always have to. She sang that very easily. 😁 The James Bond makers should really think about letting Floor sing the theme song.
I would not say it's even close. I listened to both back to back and Floors version has more power and more passion. I then asked someone who had never heard either sing before and they picked the Floor version. They went on to say they liked both versions as did I. So to say they aren't even close is not a valid statement.
She gets those guns from working her farm. Swinging sledge hammers and an axe. Plus taking care of her two huge beautiful horses. Girl is tough! 😎 theres is video proof. ruclips.net/video/q8_kHu4pwH0/видео.html
@SteveNL Not one person here who’s an M83/‘OG’ Oblivion fan has come close to being “hostile”. Every comment I’ve seen is: “great, good, wonderful, nice... but for [insert various reasons] the original is _IMO_ better”. Shocking, indeed. Disliking (on RUclips) is silly and outmoded -- certainly doing so to a reaction video made by music fans and supporters. Or the artist doing the cover, for that matter. Everything is going to be all right, no one’s hostile. Put on some good tunes and enjoy your day.
@SteveNL If “miles better” is considered “hostile/shocking”, I guess our perspectives differ a bit. You’ve mentioned song dislikes a few times, so I figured I’d give my two cents (the original version has of course been posted for a while, too). Anyhoo - sounds good, enjoy the video! - - - The top post is fairly innocuous, pure opinion. In my humble. Not positive, but not unexpected for a cover song comments section. The second comment is - to me - much more negative: “...I _used to_ like the old version until I heard the new one”. Why not continue liking both? Why stop liking something that was released in 2013, and you’ve perhaps liked for years and years. But that’s his prerogative.
@SteveNL I don’t remember seeing a “Floor did ok” comment. Anyway, looks like the person who posted ‘better by miles’ is an artist himself, with a YT channel. And artists have strong opinions... still, he “loved the Floor cover”. In conclusion, assuming you’re a Nightwish fan (I’ve listened to them since the ‘90s), this handful of opinions/comments is _nothing_ compared to the drama and “fan wars” over the years. Tarja vs. Floor is _still_ a regular topic, despite them being friends for years, recently doing a livestream together. Okay, peace, and ciao for now. As for M83: sorta. I think M83 did some interesting musical/scoring work on Oblivion and Cloud Atlas, haven’t kept too much track of them since. I need to give their latest album(s) a spin. I just mentioned all the Nightwish stuff to point out how tame the song version opinion comments here are... As always, IMHO. I know about, and remember, the Anette/Nightwish/Tarja fanbase hoopla, that goes under “drama”.
It's about personal tastes and that's it! I remember this song, but when I watched oblivion and then I listened to the song I didn't pay to much attention. Years later Floor comes with this amazing cover and for me she improved something that was ok... If you like Susanna's version, that's ok, cuz now we have the same song for different tastes.
Great reaction by one of my fave reactors. What a voice. Speaking of another front woman with a great voice. Please react to the unique voice of Melody Cristea of Liliac (Lil-EEE-ack) - just released video cover of Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself For Loving You
@@jzundert I agree, Some say that Disturb sang the "Sounds of Silence" better. That Nightwish sang the best "Phantom of the Opera". All bands/singers deserve a chance to be heard. :)

Floors voice is so unique and amazing, it doesn’t matter what’s she sings. It always something special
Nice reaction, and Floor is great here. Live at a Jimmi Kimmel show 8 years ago M83 Performs Oblivion Featuring Susanne Sundfør.
Great reaction again Floor is simple stunning everytime she gets me goosebumps and tears keep them reactions coming 👍🤘🤘
I watched Oblivion in a theater and I usually leave during the credits but I was glued stuck cause of Susanne's voice
Floor did a new cover for de beste zangers (songfestival edition) She did Euphoria. You should check it out. It is really good
This is great a version, but what I like about Susannes voice is her sore and beautyful vibrato. I get the chills every time.
In the version she sang that was on the album, I really was impressed not just whit her vibrato but how she _USED_ it. It was striking and beautiful.
Still. Floor, eh?
The song plays over the end credits of Oblivion. Such a great song and score by M83.
some folks in rock radio should be swarming this what a good strong track

There is no absolute reason, we all defend what we like although in this case the talent is not ours, in conclusion everything is a matter of tastes and perspectives of each person.
With the exception one singer is singing in her own comfort zone, and the other is stepping out of it all the time. So whats more fun and special?
and several prefer her even though she is in her comfort zone, it is still a matter of tastes and preferences
@@cristiankalymayor8759 Yup a simple homemade cover can bring such reactions. Amazing!
No one else could make justice to Suzanne's voice besides Floor. Its an wonderful version.

The truly amazing part of this cover are Floor's own backing harmonies. They are simply stunning.
She also takes care of her tool - voice. Like a guitarist or drummer, needs to take care of theirs. Best way to it is do it is publish a song...
