I will just leave this here: O'G3NE - Clown | Beste Zangers 2016 : czcams.com/video/flhbl9w_ul0/video.html 👀🐱👤🎁
Bad thing to say you ask ???: Some Vocal coaches, singers of all kinds that react to Floor say that the vibrating of the jaw is a no no when doing vibrato. But hey I don't care 😎 I love seeing that Jaw party hard.
@@corneliusantonius3108 it's not necessarily a no-no... it just makes the vibrato artificial which is only an issue when you care about the sound projecting. When you're using a condenser mic 8 inches away, the sound doesn't need to travel. Some dogmatic vocal coaches are too up tight about TRADITIONAL technique, but when it works it works
... I'm an opera singer and classical voice teacher but even I know it's okay for things like that to happen when the result isn't negative. She's not singing in a huge opera house without a mic in this (though she definitely could)
@@BigBrainSinger Maybe herJaw just minics what the voice is doing at that moment, like it is alsoo putting on a show.
haha "Holiday music" try these bro : Raskasta Joulua - Oi Jouluyö ( O Holy Night) - Floor Jansen : czcams.com/video/ym1Wc5dmUYc/video.html

Floor's right eyebrow should have its own youtube channel.....
Oh yeah!!!
She is not selling emotion, she is emotion
Such a pleasure to have someone who actually listens :)
Thanks, Martin! I just get super nerdy about good singing, can't help it.
@@BigBrainSinger nerd away, here to learn!
@@martinreed1567 fantastic!
@@BigBrainSinger Funny you should say that Charlie, Floor has described herself as a vocal nerd. Does that make sense. . . . . . . . ?
If you want to see videos of her face in close up as she sings, check the performances from Dutch TV show "Beste Zangers". She was on it in 2019. Basic premise is get a group of singers from different genres together. Each week one is centre of attention and the others perform songs for them. Maybe one of their own, or a favourite, or just something they think they'll love. No winners, no competition, just singers singing for each other for the joy of it. Hardly anyone in the Netherlands had heard of Floor before the show. Now she's famous there :)
Floor said in an interview about recording the technically difficult songs of the new last Nightwish album Human Nature that mastering the technicality of the songs took about a month. Then learning to tell the story of the songs took another month and only then was she ready to record the album.
And there, my friends , lies the difference between art and business.
No more Disney princesses needed, the Queen has arrived.
About the instrumental part: It seems that Oscar Fläring of Swedish rock band The Fouxes supplies the instrumentation on Floor’s cover.
PLUS …… she opened the door for people who never heard of Nightwish!
Btw: the mic she's using is an AKG C12VR, about 6 grand.
Floor made this cover because her 31/2 year old daughter, for had been singing it, driving her insane - so Floor said: Now it is your turn 🤣...
Well, she was right - it went ballistic on CZcams in a week.
And you are spot on - Floor is giving you emotion whenever she sings
She sang that final belt with her ENTIRE BEING. Your twitch friend nailed it saying she looked like the figurehead on an old wooden ship, the strength she displayed.
Her First band was After Forever were she joined 1997 at age 16. So she has had Time to practise...
As I understand it, she auditioned to be a backup singer in a metal cover band whose name I forget (Apocalypse???). Not only did they hire her, the put her out front, changed their name to After Forever, and started doing original material.
Hi Floor calls herself a vocal technique nerd. This song when it was out a week she got 1 million views and got a whole bunch of new subscribers.
You´re the first to make me understand it clearly: colours, just that word
what I´ve been waiting to get out from her singing, you said it! So simple.
Her range and her way to get into everything she sings, gives her almost
countless amount of ways to give it to us, her audience.
This is my first ever puplic comment, I am a somewhat classically trained choir-singer! I have a basis in classical way of singing, but I have also sanged in a contemporary cover band as a lead singer for many years. I have singing carrier of twenty years and I have to admit that these great points you are making here, make me think of my own singing! Thank you for these pointers. Eventhough I am a Finnish dude, and knew NW from it's beginnings, I'we only started to listen to it more, after this covid shit started to happen and my appreciation is beginning to rise towards it. But only after professionals like youself began to react to it! Thank you and I subscribed!"
One thing I admire in this particular performance is she has her mouth a little more closed than normal, but as a mechanism to brighten the tone and take out some of her more earthy resonance, in an effort to match the character of a Disney track.
Wanna see Floor fangirling over a big (youth and still) Idol of hers ? Henk Poort - Sound of Silence: You have a video on CZcams with just the song or you have the video with the talk before and after and the song with English subtitles.
They also became good friends on Beste Zangers. It was an amazing story.
Love your reactions and information you pass on. You mentioned Floor's facial expressions: if you watch in many of the live performances, she's doing the same thing, even though almost no one in the audience can see them. She is a storyteller above all, her masterful technique serves toward that end. As others have said, watch her solo performance of "Shallow" from Beste Zangers, you will see a different Floor.
I am very impressed with your technical review of Floor Jansen. I had not heard her sing before because I have been following Dimash Kudaibergen closely for the last 4 years. She was great. And I need to listen to more from her. What most intrigued me about your analysis was the similarity between Floor and Dimash Kudaibergen. I have been addicted to watching Dimash's multiple uses of his "Instrument", his tongue, facial expressions, how he draws the hollow, in his throat, in tight, just below his Adam's Apple and just above the center "v" shaped part of his collar bone, the way he uses his throat muscles, even his eyebrows and forehead sing. You mentioned Floor's crease in her tongue. Dimash does this a lot as he sings and I've been so curious about that. How he can roll the sides of his tongue up which leaves a very deep crease in the middle of his tongue. He has a very wide wide mouth and unhinged jaw that I find most impressive. There is a part in the song "Sinful Passion" (he sang this at a Concert in Sochi, Russia), where he wiggles his tongue rapidly. It's a little hard to catch him doing this because it's there and then it's gone. I would love to hear your thoughts and analysis of Dimash's voice. He sings in 12 languages and has a vocal range of 6 octaves including an extraordinary note of D8, which his fans call a Dolphin Whistle. He has been professionally trained since the age of 5 in his native country of Kazakhstan. He was born on May 24, 1994. He is 6' 3" tall. Watching him use and continually improve his amazing Gift over the years has been amazing. Earlier in his career, he was offered a position in the Astana Opera House in Kazakhstan. He declined the offer because he wanted to explore his vocals in a great many genres. Crossover Pop, Neoclassical, infusing Folk and Traditional music into his music. He is a composer and multi instrumentalist (7 instruments). All his Concerts have been sold out. But for me, watching how incredibly he uses every part of his body to show his emotions. He is a Master Storyteller. He is University trained and has his Masters in Musical Composition and other degrees. He is currently going for his Doctorate in Music. I would greatly appreciate your evaluation of Dimash's incredible voice. Dimash and World Famous Russian/Ukrainian, composer/pianist, Igor Krutoy (who came out of retirement specifically to work with Dimash) were invited to perform a song for the Opening Ceremonies of the 2nd European Olympic Games in Minsk, Belarus in June of 2019. The Maestro composed the song "Ogni Pietra Olympico", sung in Italian, for this event. Since then, they have performed it at many other events and concerts and venues. I prefer the version he sang at his solo, and sold out, Arnau Concert in Kazakhstan in 2019. Also the song "Sinful Passion" sung in Russian, "SOS" sung in French at the Slavic Bazaar (he won the Grand Prix there). And "Adagio" from the competition "The Singer 2017". This was round #6, which he won, out of 14 rounds of songs in that competition. I think I've talked too much. Sorry. But I look forward to your review of this amazing young man. A great many voice coaches and extremely talented teachers and celebrities have been saying that Dimash is the most talented, athletic vocally skilled singer in the world. Many people have said that he has at least 30 people singing in his body. He is an Independent. Not tied into any producer's contract. He is just recently starting to appear in the USA. Dimash has been among the Top 5 on Kevan Kenny's MTV #FRIDAYSLIVESTREAM on USA television. He has been holding steady at #2 position for many weeks. He has plans to come to the USA very soon to continue his work and training.
As a high sensitivity personality Floor has the ability to really "feel" the music she is performing and bring her emotions into the performance.
Being a graduate of the Dutch Rock Academy followed by a conservatory education specifically aimed at classical singing, she is amongst the best trained singers around, and able to bring all those techniques to the fore. Besides being one of the best singers around she is also a vocal coach.
I think you will find she's at home in there own studio her husband is the drummer from Sabaton .
Yes indeed! She uses that mic for all her home studio recordings
Her performances are jaw-dropping, literally.
She's done 2 more covers: "Alone" (2 weeks ago) and a Dutch song "Is Dit Nou Later?" (today).
I think we'll watch the latter today
You forget 'Shallow' 😉🤘😉🤣 czcams.com/video/aZcvTYQ3HRw/video.html

I hope you get to some of her performances on the Dutch show Beste Zangers eventually too. Enjoying your reactions and analysis. She does a rendition of Shallow (Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper song), phantom of the opera, and lots more songs in multiple different styles and languages.
And, even with that level of mastering all techniques - Floor said in a talk with Tarja (former and 1st singer of NW) that she was "concerned" how her voice will react when she, hopefully soon, can start touring again - she has not been singing live for 1,5 - 2 hours a day, like she normally does on tour for a long time now. Although, she sings and trains every day to maintain the quality.
Btw, the recording is made in her hope studio, by Hannes, her husband - so no professional equipment (apart from the mic) - no sound ingenieur, etc. Pretty good result I would say
Nice reaction.
You talked about her dynamic and all her different colors, you definitely must do her performances in the Dutch tv show Beste Zangers.
She sings in 4 languages and all songs in an other style .
If you do this be sure to do the one with English subs and with the intro story for the best experience.(someone can link you the right one i am sure:)
Also heard you wanne do Epica, can you start with Sancta Terra featering Floor ?
Dude! I’m loving your in depth breakdowns & authenticity. You’re quickly becoming one of my favorites! Kudus bro! 🔥🤙
Hey! That's awesome to hear! We've been building this community over on twitch and Discord for a while, and sharing what we do on CZcams has been amazing! We've made a ton of new friends
Dude, you are really, really good. I saw a first video from you, it was a kind of Nightwish/Floor Jansen compilation, and you where talking through the best parts the whole time, which gave me the feeling 'shut up man, you are constantly talking through the best vocal parts - how can you do that'. Now i have seen more of your work, i know that that specific video was not a standard for your work. You really know what you are talking about, you are extremely vocal/technical knowledgable and you have very much respect for the artist. My apologies for my first annoyed reaction. I watch a lot of vocal (reaction) coaches, among them some very good ones, but i must honestly say, that i have not encountered this high quality you put in your analytical work. And, the best thing, you are having a lot of fun, for which, on my turn, i have fun watching you. You are quite a character, and i like that. Keep up the good work, and all the best with your channel. P.S. keep doing more Floor, she is one of the best and most versatile female vocalists alive on the planet today. (if not The best)
“She’s a contortionist of the facial fascia.”
Love it! 🔥🔥
a true master of singing, coloring the world with her shades of singing
nicely put!
Its, not in a studio, its her Home Barn. You can see the Room in many Videos
Well, home studio is still a studio. I make professional audio recordings in mine. It's still a studio
Singers have a "toolbox" with all their skills and colors inside it, and those should be reasy to use at a moment's notice. Floor's singing toolbox is like Tony Stark's actual toolbox.
🤔 Man i'm starting to become a massive fan of your channel!
and you have not yet heard her singing "the phantom of the opera" on the dutch tv show beste zangers, an unforgivable gap 😉
"Track the jaw" - when she hit that high note on 'rage ONNNNN" - first thought - "she just went Great White Shark", lol...be funny to see a pic of a great white breaching the surface jaws wide open next to that frozen image of her, lol...something else I don't know if many reactors realize or not since I don't see it commented on - on top of all the amazing technical things she's noted for, English is not her native language. You've got to her and Henk Poort do Phantom Of The Opera on Beste Zangers to see some real 'sing/acting' in use.
this is at her home studio,she stores hay above it for the horses
From a layman's perspective, Floor's jaw is like a "bobble head". Everything is happening above the jaw (jeez, where have I heard that? haha) and the jaw just expands and contracts to facilitate what kind of sound she wants. I'm being "Captain simplistic" I know, but it really is interesting how this whole "singing thing" is done. Huh? Who knew? haha.
love the way you compair singing and painting she has all the colors indeed great reaction......she has done 2 accousting versions too hows the heart and nemo also awesome
Great job again with the technical aspects that so few talk about and even fewer dive into and truly seem to enjoy. You have quickly become into my top three “reactors”, and all of you treat videos differently in different aspects of the songs (singing, music composition and technical talk of equipment and stage shows).
Wow Charlie, I subscribed ... with a simple reason. Nowhere else have I seen and heard the type of comments and the details you describe about Floor's singing. For example starting with your comments at 2:20 in the video. And you followed through throughout the video. Thoroughly enjoyed that and very informative, for example also what you told and showed about the ridge in her tongue(around 13:40) ! 12 different types of phonetion is something I would never ever have known (5:15) about her.. Never heard anyone emphasizing thát before! So cool! And you posisbly becoming a Viking Queen had me in stitches (for the record: there can only be ONE: Floor!). Thanks for this and wishing you a pleasant journey down the rabbit hole called Floor Jansen and Nightwish!
I appreciate it, Bert! Even more so, I haven't watched any of these before and this is truly my first, unadulterated opinion on these singers. I'm glad these can be of value to people! Not to mention the fact that I am not monetizing any of this content; in fact, the money goes back to the artists. Thank you again!
See, that's what I meant in another comment (on your first Floor Jansen Video) when I said that it's not just her voice that makse her so special. Every song she sings literelly fells and sounds like it was her song and her story she's telling. She's not just singing a song rather than acting the whole pice of music like she would in and Opera ...
The sign of an amazing performer
Quickly becoming one of my fave channels 😎. Another great reaction and input. Nice!
Thank you Laat!
In awe of the jaw 😀
20:18- t-shirt idea...

Love it
“She paints with al the colors of her voice”. Heh.
Which made my first though: Now she needs to do "Colors of the Wind."
@@Elyiana she did, apparently, years ago in karaoke! One reactor had found a video of it, and I'm pretty positive I would not have found it otherwise. I think it was during a vacation in Japan?

Thanks, perfect Reaction/Analyse gain!
North Wales division of the nightwish army checking in great reaction
I was always told that I was wrong, because I could enunciate and project my voice, and therefore had to limit myself to what was "suitable"... I'm now afraid to sing, because I might not be "good enough" to do what I love.
Thats nonsense. Come sing with us on discord!
Thank you! Best analyse I have ever heard and seen 🤓
You should react and analyze to Floor Jansen's Shallow from Beste Zangers show. In fact, any song from that show is special in its own way.
Check out the end of the featured channel video!
She did this for her daughter. Best Mom EVER!
You are on a roll, keep the great reactions comming, like you realy lusten, and say what you think. For now keep going and stay safe
After watching about a dozen reactions to this, the only negative comment was about the video production, in the beginning the music overpowers some of her vocal.
You need to hear her sing full opera, because she can (after a year of study opera), Floor Jansen singing: O mio babbino caro, Puccini. See link: czcams.com/video/UeTyAZtV5wI/video.html so you can see that she can do it all.
Time to build a shrine for the godess🤘.
BTW You did the “frozen” cover and after that the “Stef Bos” cover, but not the one in between? “Alone” is stunning.
Something bad to say? Good luck :) I love hearing people talk about Floor, especially other singers, vocal coaches etc. because, and I think I've said this before, I learn something new about subjects I know precious little about (though obviously more now that I've heard a lot of reactions :) ), and I also love how it reinforces what I already felt. What's even more amazing is how humble she is, she's got all this talent and skill and never once does it seem like she thinks much of it or tries to show off, instead she's humble and from what I've heard and seen she's a wonderful person too. And she's a valkyrie :)
About the jaw, at some points her jaw drops down from the hinge. Her entire jaw drops as if she can disconnect the hinge point and drop it straight down as opposed to moving her jaw through an arc like we all do.
You want to know something even more awesome? Some CZcamsrs have overlaid her vocal track on the Frozen animation and it is an exact fit. Check it out: czcams.com/video/mXGmir8JYTU/video.html
Well, Bill, formal voice training actually calls for a good understanding of opening the jaw from the hinge. Young singers who are inexperienced open it in an Arc. At least, that's my experience with this kind of jaw movement.
Great reaction. Gr Amsterdam 🤘
You would not be doing yourself a disservice if you were to react to Marco and Floor doing Ave Maria live at Hartwell arena 2015/16 (either or) I can't quite remember which one.
Something bad to say. The earworm is back that we all had a decade ago.
Those of us who work with kids of a certain age never had the chance to lose it....
So. Everyone is giving you more Floor recs (which I totally agree with), but if you are wanting other styles as well:
Some of the best disney covers I've heard lately have been Acapella.
Voiceplay is sensational if you haven't heard them. I especially recommend their "Little Mermaid Medley" and "Oogie Boogie Man." Their Bass also has a fabulous cover of Bare Necessities that is worth a listen.
Since it's heading into Christmas, I'll also recommend Home Free performing "O Holy Night" or "Do You Hear What I Hear" and The Hound + Fox performing "We Three Kings." Also, Pentatonix has several albums to choose from. "Mary Did You Know" and "Little Drummer Boy" by them will always rank in my top spots of theirs. I believe Within Temptation one year did a "Gothic Christmas" as well, though I lost it when I lost all my music because my computer died suddenly.
My sister was a voice major once upon a forever ago, and I forgot how much I loved listening to her nerd out about music. It is super nice to see someone actually responding to the how and why this works -- and using it to explain to those who want to get better! Also, it's obvious you just plain love good music, and that helps too. Looking forward to more! Thank you for putting these on CZcams for those of us who can't usually catch live streams!
Thank you, Brianna!
"This has made me reconsider my own vocal training" Bet you are not the only one.
Talking of colour. Floor is the only singer who can actually sing the colour "storm" ( one of my favourite colours)
Here is a link to a mix 'Paashaas' made with the original and Floor's take on it: czcams.com/video/mXGmir8JYTU/video.html
This is the Disney for adults version 😁
In my Opinion , Floor is the female Freddie Mercury of our Lifetime 🥰
@Radar Don ok friend, her Voice is awesome (Freddie s too). And the the stage Performance? Both play with her growd. And i see Freddie 1986 in Cologne. But today, i am totally FLOORED. The best Singer of our Lifetime 🥰
There we go again... You'll get us spoiled with all those reactions, haha. I thought you might enjoy this - a fan mixed Floor's version with the original portion from "Frozen" where Elsa sings it. Interesting thing is she (the fan) said she didn't even have to mess with the pitch or any timing, Floor's version follows the original to the letter. All she did was add a second layer of Floor's singing to the mix to make it a little louder (as some people believe her voice was a tad too low on the cover's mix): czcams.com/video/mXGmir8JYTU/video.html
Could you please please react to Floor singing Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort on Beste Zangers?
Eventually!
You really need to.check out her performances on the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers. All different, in 4 different languages; all awesome!
There are some with English subtitles on YT :)
Waauw, your channel is hot. A week ago you only had like 350 followers, now already over 2K. Great Job man. I missed the twitch-live again yesterday. Luckily i can see them afterwards although in some parts the sound is muted on twitch. Still worth it though. Great job, keep up the good work.
About her jaw, now you asked, two things comes to mind. Snake's jaws, opening up to swallow an animal, or the Mummy screaming at that Brendan Frasier movie. Pure contorcionism indeed hahahaha
But what separates her from those things is the fact that it is free of tension, which allows her to have that warmth in her tone!
Dude, I really enjoy these reactions. Been watching all the NW/Floor YTs and props to your knowledge and ability to recognize so much of the technicality and emotion she brings. You asked at the end about her jaw. I've seen vocal coach reactors who have commented - worrisomely (if that's a word) - that the flexibility in her jaw appears to be a mechanism for vibrato. That they would caution their students about doing that, purposefully. (I can't sing a note, btw, so I'm only parroting what I learn from you all on these reactions.) But you haven't done that. I assume because you recognize that a woman with this much talent certainly doesn't need to mechanize her vibrato. She seems - to me - to have complete control over that aspect, as well as every other aspect, of her voice. Her jaw though, doesn't "look" to be "hinged" like would commonly - maybe - be thought. Hers seems to move up and down like an elevator at the "hinge" point. If that makes sense. Her jaw "going along for the ride" as you put it, seems loose and moves vertically rather than in rotation. She noted in her 1st master class video about keeping the position of her jaw a finger width behind her upper teeth, and it seems like that vertical movement is what allows that.
Now I don't suspect she's built different than the rest of us; rather, she seems to be so loose and flexible with the mechanics of her jaw movement that she can keep that relative position through any sound she's emoting. I've seen other singers belt and their neck tightens, which looks to me like they're rotating as if on a hinge, bringing their chin down to their neck and creating that tightness. She never seems to do that. I could be completely off base with this, but your jaw comments made me think about it, and that's the best I can describe it.
I hope you keep going with the NW/Floor reactions. I'm in awe of her and them as a group, and learn a lot from your commentary. There's so many great songs to do, but I won't take up anymore of your time after this ungodly long rant with suggestions. Maybe another time. Suffice to say for now, I'm onboard. And thanks.
I actually mentioned this on tonight's stream (expect it in the next week or so on YT). The jaw movement with vibrato is not BAD for the voice. It is one way that allows for a certain effect. It is only bad if you are trying to sing with a classical technique, which requires you to project without a microphone. Your voice doesn't resonate as efficiently when the jaw is being used. Sound will only travel without amplification if it is being made naturally with equal phonation. Floor has a mic. Therefore the sound doesn't need to travel very far. Therefore it doesn't matter if her jaw shakes with vibrato. It's a good sound and works for her. I'd like to see those teachers sing with the type of versatility she brings to everything...
@@BigBrainSinger Ah. Interesting. Makes sense though. Presumably the fluttering jaw could put an affect on the sound production. I'm assuming you mean for a stage production, when you say classical? As in musical theater?
I've heard people say Floor's jaw movement is a result of being so free/loose. I guess that's another way of saying "along for the ride."
I'd seriously join session like that if you would go through her Beste Zangers performances :D
We have watched those before! The featured channel video includes her singing shallow.
@@BigBrainSinger yes, but shallow is only shallow :D vilja lied, que se siente and winner are absolutely "must see/listen" also ^^ especially if you first check que se siente original version :)
You are spot on about her colors/vocal tools. To see exactly how versatile she is, watch all of her performances from Beste Zangers. She does it all. Also, she did a CD with the guitarist from Pagan's Mind (Jorn Viggo Lofstad) that shows yet another side: czcams.com/video/bAiPeSsqD-4/video.html I saw the Baltimore show of the Decades tour from the front row...never more than about 10' from her. There isn't a second on stage where she isn't connecting with the audience or interacting with her band mates, it's just amazing to watch.
Please for the love of God check out shoemaker from nightwish if you want to hear the fruits of her operatic labors.
That last line.... ad astra. Hot damn that it good vocal spin!
Hello, another great and professional review. I wanted to know your reaction to Viki Gabor, who is only 13 years old and promises to be a rising star. She has an amazing voice, you will surely be delighted with her great vocals. I will provide a few links that I highly recommend. Greetings from Poland

The jawmovement is perfect to create space in the sinus cavities. To allow for more resonance.
Hm not quite
Also watch "Nightwish - The Poet and the Pendulum" and "Nightwish - The Greates Show on Earth"
U react dont yet to Shallows with she? haha this is on another world!..I like how you explain! good luck
I included it at the end of my first reaction to Floor. I'll do a dedicated one eventually.
Dude, you need to hear her dutch cover "Is dit nu later" new upload on her channel 😀
Reaction of that dropping tonight!
Oh mio babbino caro , look her version up on youtube :)
Hi, very professional reaction 😊
Could you react to "Move The World" performed by Viki Gabor at Opening Ceremony of JESC? Vocal skills of this 13yo girl are incredible. There were also used some special visual effects. Definitely worth checking out :)
Greetings from Poland 😊

Please listen to Floor in Beste zangers!!!
Just saying, Goddess of Empathy. Love your geeking out......lol
You really, really should do The Devil and the deep dark ocean
Dimash Kudaibergen. World class Kazakhstan singer. Well worth the listen.
I prefer her use of Periwinkle in this song...sorry Crayola humor there. Seriously though she really does use each and every part of her voice to do whatever she wants with a song/note. Really enjoy your channel and explanation of what/how she is doing things. Not a singer (not even in car with radio blasting ) but even I picked up her tongue position on that one part and I tried to just do that and couldn’t just sitting there let alone when singing. Good thing is you have a ton of stuff to look into for her including After Forever/ReVamp/Nightwish/Beste Zangers and even some solo opera arias. 🤘
Just what I was thinking in the shower earlier, but I sounded more like a chainsaw ... Like the channel .
USEFUL LINKS HERE:
Here's my favourite list of "WTF-is-this-Nightwish?"-songs available on CZcams. What I mean by that is they represent the most varied experience of Nightwish you can get. If there is a Nightwish mainstream, these are not it.

First of all, Floor all alone in the Swedish winter forest, improvising for 30 seconds. Cutest ever: czcams.com/video/668jl0daLbc/video.html

Stargazers from Tampere 2015 (here you can hear Floor's more operatic register in this fast-paced guitarheavy song): czcams.com/video/NhEuAPYm_Ug/video.html
The Islander from Tampere 2015 (Marco singing): czcams.com/video/Zo8ncK_5kzc/video.html
Sahara. (Nightwish in Tampa 2016. It's a bit different but crazy good and not that common. Also, Tuomas said he loves small gigs, where he "can smell the sweat and the beer"...) czcams.com/video/lTvYfLa4Wlk/video.html
A slow lovesong with Marco in the lead vocals from Wembley 2015: "Kiss while your lips are still red": czcams.com/video/5V7PKv493Ic/video.html
How's the Heart (slow and beautiful anthem of human empathy, pure awesomeness) from the Planet Rock acoustic session 2020: czcams.com/video/yYtkPpFYzOo/video.html
Sleeping Sun from Tampere 2015 (slow ballad by Floor, so amazingly good) czcams.com/video/rsotlzr9wNw/video.html
More folk-metal in the form of a very weird instrumental jig, "Elvenjig", followed by the amazing "Elvenpath" (Buenos Aires 2018): czcams.com/video/Vdc-Mp9nksg/video.html
"High Hopes" from Hartwall Arena 2005. (Nightwish makes a Pink Floyd cover, WHAT!!! Marco singing.) czcams.com/video/4oEDnVeYYyM/video.html
Slow, Love, Slow from Montreaux 2012 (Nightwish goes Jazz!!! Previous singer, Anette) czcams.com/video/6k1jeJBocb8/video.html
Arabesque, the official clip. Not the band, but some firedancers from a concert on the Imaginareum tour: czcams.com/video/afIoCpJcVPo/video.html
Meadows of Heaven from the album Dark Passion Play. If this only had a video, it would be played way more. Anette singing (with help from others). czcams.com/video/vxsjv6LtRz0/video.html (Fan-made video with lyrics) - The live version from Hartwall 2009 isn't that good quality, but if you want to try it: czcams.com/video/iRCJ-WVJGWE/video.html
You want to see that relaxed tongue again, watch Annie Haslam with Renaissance back in the 1970s. czcams.com/video/0CBShoN2bhA/video.html And you should hear the sublime Judie Tzuke czcams.com/video/-yCda0GkJlw/video.html
Elsa channeling Maleficent....
A mic drop, if it wasn't a $6.000 mic.
In this video, I keep seeing Morticha Addams for some reason
'Track the jaw'
🤣
Man, I truly like your reactions. But I am so sorry, I cannot see the jaw without seeing the valkery. But that's just me ...
You can see... both? 👀
@@BigBrainSinger even in my dreams 😉
As stated by creaperty, sure a beefy mic, a 6k dollars one
AKG C12VR, it isn't cheap indeed. . . . . . . .
I vaguely remember her saying this was her birthday present from Hannes this year. And he's still damn proud of his present (filming Floor AND the mic) 🤣
@@impugnu7852 You foxed me there for a minute, I think you mean Hannes and I believe you are right too.
@@572Btriode What was i thinking (probably not enough, already asleep). Should be Hannes indeed, thanks, corrected it.
@@impugnu7852 :-)
so it is Floor van Gogh :-)
Floor is more than human, man. Daughter of Bregi, Norse God of Song....or something. Viking Goddess, indeed.
"This is my song"
Floor: "Was"
I always felt the orignial singer was straining for the high notes....Floot strains for nothing....can do what she pleases. I like the rock arangement, too. Definitely better than the original in every way.
Find something bad in this? Back wall could use a little varnish, I suppose.
hahahahaha true!
they have mistout at Disney by not having Floor sing the original
sorry i cant like and subscribe!!! have been subscribed since your first Nightwish reaction and i have liked just before you asked.
Ah! Thanks Torben!
The only thing bad about this is I wish they had recorded louder.
You can use a digital mixer to turn up the lows and highs to create *perceived* loudness in any recording you'd like
@@BigBrainSinger my phone sux so I deal with it.where we live in bfe Texas no cable no internet and they rape us for sattelite. The only reason we have ohone is because a rancher made the deal with the devil for a cell tower.
Negative comment on Floor, lol, She is way too damn good, who can follow that? Like another vocal coach reactor said of Floor, she is so good, it pushes you to be a better vocalist or give up.
Which is awesome! I agree with that statement
