    You should check out "How's the heart" from the Human Nature album of Nightwish. There is both the album version and an acoustic version with Floor and Troy. It's a beautiful song and it's really interesting because Floor looks like a gymnast, so much versatility since the lyrics are extremely difficult to sing.

    I like how you mentioned her posture that keeps her airways open, but I think the real magic is that she's also using those postures to express emotion in the song at the same time. Like when she moved her arm for "slam the door" it does help with singing posture, but the motion is also very evocative of slamming a door.

      Best way with "How's the Heart" would be to do a double reaction to the original band version, AND the acoustic live. They bring out different characteristic details in the song.

    As usual your breakdown was a teaching experience, thank you. Floor has control of her voice in such a way it is fasinating to listen to her sing anything. Your reaction helps me understand.

    Your idea that Floor treats this character from the perspective of maturity and experience feels so right. I felt it too on the first listen and now you expressed it very clearly. Thanks!

    • @jefffung7080
      @jefffung7080 Před 3 lety +7

      I'm looking forward to this :). I also hope that you react to Floor's cover of Heart's 1987 hit "Alone" (which itself was a cover of a song by i-Ten) that was released yesterday ( czcams.com/video/1fu-yP6q6Gk/video.html ). Maybe you could also compare that to some of Floor's older renditions of "Alone" such as the 2007 studio rendition when she was with the band After Forever ( czcams.com/video/r7uaHxyC1rY/video.html ) or a more metal live performance such as czcams.com/video/6bwZ2zWVZd4/video.html.

      @rufuspanjaitan5759 Před 3 lety +4

      So agree to this. One thing annoying me from this song's original version is the high notes. It sounds forced and boring.
      But Floor sounds like she doesn't put much effort. There are more colors to Floor's version than the original.

    One thing I really love about Floor and which, in my opinion, makes her as special as she is: She doesn't just sing a song. She lives every song she sings. It's almost like she gets into a character, as if she is playing the song like a theater piece. It gets really obvious in three Nightwish epics, but also Ayreon (even more so, because she is in fact playing a role there). And that really gets the emotion across. I just love it.

    As always, Elizabeth, a great analysis of Floor's techniques.
    Thinking about Floor's recovery from burnout then getting the call from Nightwish in 2012, I wonder if some of the interpretation of the lyrics of this is semi-autobiographical. She expected to have to thaw out audiences who had booked to hear Anette but then got her instead. But she plucked up her courage and stepped through that door! She admitted to being terrified to do so, but as time has shown, it was the best decision she could possibly have taken.
    She certainly projects immense feeling into the song, and as always, she is the consummate storytelling singer - her vocal flexibility allows her to inject emotion in ways that almost every other singer would struggle with.
    I figure that the microphone started out as the standard stainless steel mesh until Floor's voice gilded it.
