You really need to see Floor's chameleon-like run on the Beste Zangers TV show: she hits so many styles and so incredibly well it's astonishing. Also, please react to Nightwish's official live video of Everdream (at Wacken 2013) for more of her insane mix/belt ability.
You might really like to listen to Floor's version of Shallow from Beste Zangers and then Shoemaker from Nightwish's new album Human:Nature. Two songs so different that it's hard to believe the same person sang them.
Great point on the difference between the versatility of interpretation and the technique to back it up. You most defenitely NEED to react to Epica: Stabat Mater Dolorosa and Sancta Terra - Live Retrospect Show Ft. Floor Jansen ( Simone Simons - Floor Jansen ) Two of the three operatic symphonic metal Queens of Europe doing Bel Canto and Lieder style live in front of thousands of metal fans,- and they love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After that: Nightwish - Phantom Of The Opera and Dark Chest Of Wonders - End Of An Era dvd 2008 ( Tarja Turunen - Nightwish´s original singer,- the one who put operatic symphonic metal singing on the map. )
I may be the only one, but I would like to see a reaction on Floor when everything is not ok. Ghost Love Score in Buenos Aires 2018, when Floor was ill. She was REALLY struggling! She manages to nail the famous last note though, and her and Emppu's, the guitarist, reaction right after was heart warming.
You're a fantastic teacher! You break style and technic so pedagogical, easy to follow and understand. Never had such "oh, that makes so much sense. I've never thought of it like that". You've got a new subscriber! 😊 By the way, your reaction of Floor Jansens singing with Nightwish is absolutely the best one on CZcams (and there're a lot of them on this site). Please react on their song Everdream with Floor from Wacken 2013 as well 🙏 Best - Sam
What an interesting explanation, I'm not a singer but it was a cool watch still. Looking forward for you to discover more about what Floor can do and react to it, but you seem like you already know her very well.
Floor Jansen and Nightwish are the main reason I took singing lessons. My teacher assigned me songs like "I will survive" by Gloria Gaynor or "Memory" from Cats. At first, I didn't understand why she chose pop and theatrical songs, but now I'm grateful she pushed me out of my comfort zone and let me experiment with other genres and styles, 'cause I struggled the most with interpretation and this really helped me. Still have a lot to learn tho, I'm definitely following you for more educative and explanatory content!
Definitely going to be checking out more of your videos😊 I have a pretty strong base for classical singing and part of a degree down, and I can't wait to see what I can learn from your channel!
If you would be interested in exploring Floor's versatility some more, I would suggest reacting to her performances on the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers, where she covers songs from other artists in a large variety of styles. She also uses lots in the Nightwish songs from the Wacken 2013 show, the Wembley & Tampere 2015 ones and for older songs, the Buenos Aires 2019 show.
Thanks for the explanation and you are right Floor has the ability to sing in every genre with that perfect connection between style and technique and has already shown that in many songs she did. To be honest from the other persons you mentioned i have not seen that yet, and i refer special to all the genres in metal. Included Growling, screaming etc. You name it , Floor has done it all.
love your indepth reaction. If you want to see Floor in different styles,check out the dutch tv show De Beste Zangers. Its a show where top singers from the netherlands sing a song from eachother or a song with witch they have a special band . Floor sings in 4 languages and as said in different styles. Atleast check out her version of The Phantom of the opera with Henk Poort(he is The dutch Phantom of the opera) And her version of Shallow (you will be surprised):) Thanks and keep them coming.
Henk Poort is another great study in technique on that show especially Sound of silence (disturbed version had to learn distortion for that) and Turn the lights down low.
Yes, to see even more styles from Floor, watch "Beste Zangers 2019" (preferably those uploaded with a little context and subtitles by jenniezelf) Henk Poort shows many sides of his voice as well.
@@janjaapvdijk So very true, but don't forget his renditions on Country and Desposito. If you are talking interpretation You might want to look at this 2019 season completely.
I love that you made follow-up videos on the reaction. It lets us enjoy the reaction and have fun seing you discover new piece of music and get more in-depth commentary and knowledge as well. Thank you!
I really hope you continue to react to Floor Jansen and her incredible vocal tallents and stage presence. (be it with Nightwish or her previous bands & side projects) As you've bearly scratched surface of what she's capable of.
I really really would like to suggest two songs for next reactions: "The Poet And The Pendulum - Nightwish. HQ with lyrics. Live @ Wembley 2016". Many people consider it a masterpiece of this band (it'd be helpful to read the background story of this song on wikipedia before in order to understand it, it's so moving). And also Caleb Hyles' cover of "Show Yourself (Frozen 2)", since you already reacted to Panic at the disco's cover of "Into the unknown". Caleb's control on his lowest and highest notes amazes me, I think he's a really talented male vocalist on CZcams :) I love your reactions and explanations
The poet and the pendulum is one of their master pieces. The greatest show on earth is the other one. Tuomas himself considers that one to be his best work.
Thanks for giving us the link. It was a real joy to watch that again. There are some fan footage available from these bonus performances from the "Nightwish Cruise" that took place on the ship Baltic Princess on June 9, 2015. This includes a rare and first ever performance of "Edema Ruh". These videos always cheer me up. Just for fun, here's a link to the same "Alone" with another camera angle but with a lower quality sound: czcams.com/video/OI2sojuvnrY/video.html I might as well add a link to the After Forever version. (After Forever was Floor Jansen's first band.) This seems to be quite rare and even Discogs has no information about it. I guess it's from a compilation "Metallic Emotions" released in 2007. I found these two videos: czcams.com/video/Jd1mlXqR6Fo/video.html czcams.com/video/r7uaHxyC1rY/video.html There are also a couple more unofficial live videos where Floor Jansen performs the song but I'll let someone else find them instead. :-) Take care and have a wonderful day.
Mike... love your reactions! Love your singing vids! You are awesome. The amount of info you clearly communicate on singing technique for free is just great. I don't know of any other you tube vocal coaches the explain this stuff as well as you. Thank you for this.
I'm learning a lot watching you. You put it in simple terms for the non-specialist, without talking down, which is important. Floor actually demonstrated the versatility you have surmised, in 7 episodes of Best Zangers. Here are the links ( I missed two but you can find them): She sings a frank opera piece in German "Vilja Lied" czcams.com/video/lcLG5X1i2QM/video.html; A Dutch soft rock ballad "Mama" czcams.com/video/sj1ibZrjQTs/video.html; Channels Patsy Cline (!) czcams.com/video/ahykaAPHhs8/video.html; Salsa, in Spanish: czcams.com/video/DfYeLUoqw0E/video.html; Channels Lady Gaga (but better, IMHO) czcams.com/video/3Pf7Xd3IVtU/video.html; and blows the roof off with her Phantom duet with Henk Poort, the great Dutch opera baritone: czcams.com/video/plCScjvDOJM/video.html. Add in this Nightwish song and you have almost every conceivable vocal style covered (other than yodeling and Mongolian throat singing): czcams.com/video/XtXqUNB8zrU/video.html. Warning: You might be fooled for a moment, but it is NOT Marco doing the growling. Not my place to run your channel, but you could do an entire week on this series and no one would mind.
Wow this makes a lot of sense ofcourse coming from a voice teacher 😁 this is one of the best tips ever Ive seen on youtube so far Keep em coming Subscribed😊 Thank you & God Bless sir
What you said about style vs technique is gold. I teach a whole different thing - a brain game called Riichi Mahjong, but it works the same. Many people try to develop a "style" before learning the fundamentals. It mostly ends up with them using "style" as an excuse for all kinds of basic mistakes. Keep on going, sir!
Once Floor was a vocal coach herself. Simone Siemons (front lady of Epica) was one of her students. Floor performs at ‘Sancta Terra’ together with her in a duet (almost like a duel)
hearing you talk about chameleons on the piano, I thought immediately of Elton John. I feel like there’s no style he can’t play. I would really like to hear your reaction to Take Me To The Pilot from this live video. This is one of my favorites of his. It’s almost like gospel-sounding. And he pulls it off without batting an eye. Live. With a full orchestra! 😳
You should check her out in the song Wild Card by ReVamp! (live Bloodstock). In that one song she does rock, classical and growling with almost zero time to transition.
Yes, but can they do all that. Have different versions of belting, stochastic singing, celtic, AND fkn *growling* on the top of all that? And switch frequently back in forth between all these in songs, singing for 2 hrs. After learning the songs just 48 hrs prior(yes, all the songs she sang in that concert were learned in the previous 48 hrs).
Your view of Tatiana Shmaylyuk from Jinjer would be very interesting. Jinjer mixes many styles and Tatiana's ability is insane. Very different to Floor and just as impressive for very different reasons. The song "Pisces (Live Session)" will give you an excellent introduction to her style, "Teacher Teacher" one of the best performances ever. "Judgement" best Metal Reggae i've heard.
Both Nightwish and Floor are incredibly diverse. Perhaps that is why they really get along, they explore different angles of the music together. My brother made a funny comment when watching the trailer for the new Troll movie, a rather blasphemous animation for rock fans in which Troll Rock is the bad guy who wants to unify the music world, he said. : "When Troll rock unifies the music world, they will be called Nightwish".
Hi from the UK check floor singing on the Dutch TV show beste zangers Floor Jansen shallow beste zangers 2018 You might like to check out all the other songs that she sings on this show Also floor Jansen hows the hart acoustic planet rock (just floor and troy and a guitar)
Subscribing just to see what you do with some of these recommendations. I do have one quibble. I have really tried, but I just don't get why people think Bocelli is so great. I understand the difference between classical crossover and opera, but still, he has no resonance, and an anemic vibrato. No comparison with, say, Mario Lanza. Or even Dimash, who of course has other special attributes.
I know you prefer to call twang = “gospel”, but I don’t think I agree since it’s just as much if not more of a rock thing as it is a gospel thing. You can call it for pharyngeal resonance, if you don’t like “twang”.
You're probably correct!! Pharyngeal is cool...maybe I should just give in and call it twang!! It's out of these discussions that the word was probably born. (-: I will learn a new trick!! haha
If you are a fan of Ann Wilson check out Moriah Formica - Barracuda - You would think she is Ann Wilson's long lost daughter czcams.com/video/nQ0eI2lBdpM/video.html
She has so much more in her voice you didnt heard yet. So many colours its unbelieveble

Thank you I'll look at it!
You should watch Floor's performances at de beste zangers 2019, where every piece she sings is leaning in a diff. style.
Dude if you wanna see all her talent. Beste Zangers Floor Jansen.
You're a fantastic teacher! You break style and technic so pedagogical, easy to follow and understand. Never had such "oh, that makes so much sense. I've never thought of it like that".

You must listen to her singing "alone" by Heart. Find it. It's on youtube. You are right about her influences.
What you said about style vs technique is gold. I teach a whole different thing - a brain game called Riichi Mahjong, but it works the same. Many people try to develop a "style" before learning the fundamentals. It mostly ends up with them using "style" as an excuse for all kinds of basic mistakes. Keep on going, sir!
I can’t wait to learn from this one.
You should react Nightwish "Devil and Deep Dark Ocean" in good quality video, Buenos Aires live. You will find few new side of Floor Jansen ...
Once Floor was a vocal coach herself. Simone Siemons (front lady of Epica) was one of her students. Floor performs at ‘Sancta Terra’ together with her in a duet (almost like a duel)
You couldn't be more right about Floor. You should check the Dutch show Beste Zangers and see her display her abilities there.
Hello Mike, you should checkout "Dead Boys Poem" Live Buenos Aires 2018 , there Floor ist belting some very high notes ( no headvoice! ).
Totally true.
hearing you talk about chameleons on the piano, I thought immediately of Elton John. I feel like there’s no style he can’t play. I would really like to hear your reaction to Take Me To The Pilot from this live video. This is one of my favorites of his. It’s almost like gospel-sounding.

No, listen to Floor Jansen live and think about your opinion!
@@karlheinzk1305 well, I think Lady Gaga has a great potential singing rock songs I mean, she sang led Zeppelin songs when she was not famous.
Although Lady Gaga is no fool, floor is better (in my opinion). Check czcams.com/video/M68pe4a_9zk/video.html, and then pull up Lady Gaga's version.
Thank you I meant to say Lady Gaga! Her Sound of Music tribute was great!
Don't put Gaga in same lane as floor or even Celine not the same lvl
