He did his distortion for Floor
You are so right about not everything has to be a competition, just enjoy the talent you all have.
Henk rocked . He did this all for Floor. He did the distortion just for the song. This is the first time he has done it.
Yep. She wanted him to sing it in Disturbed's reimagined style
Yes, and in the leadup before he took the stage to sing he announced that he was going to do it that way. The Disturbed version is fast becoming the defacto standard for that song; especially since Paul Simon was so complimentary regarding it when it first burst onto the scene. In the first verse the similarity of his intonation to David Draiman's is almost surreal!
Henk was scared to do it but he did it for Floor
And he nailed it big time
The eyebrows and look he gave Floor at the end was both meaningful and hysterical to me.... "That was for you Floor, not bad for an amateur rock singer huh" ?
Henk Poort is both highly respected professional (Floor calls him "THE Henk Poort"), and funny, charming gentleman, earning the nickname "Uncle Henk." Just an amazing singer and an amazing man.
That Buddha comparison was about the best description of this performance, the master showing the kids how it should be done :)
The thing I love about this performance?
He NEVER EVER goes to his comfort zone. He's a classically-trained tenor, with a ton of experience in both opera and musical theather. But he starts low, and understated. When he needs to up the stakes, he goes into the distorted metal range. Which he claims he learned how to do in only a few days. Yet he nails it, and, yeah, looks totally relaxed doing so.
It's indeed very nice to see him sitting there totally relaxed but at the same time bringing this wonderful performance as a gift to a friend, throwing in some new styles because Floor will love it, and because he can.
OMG!!!! This was amazing!!!! I got goosebumps for the first time in a long time. Love that he's covering Disturbed cover. I think I like his cover of the cover even better.
I just love how he did the distortion for Floor and she looked so happy that he did.....😊
Baritone with a tremendously strong high register. This has become my favorite version.
Hi Christi! Your reaction video on Henk, deserves at least 1 million views...
As to be expected from you, of course, a very professional approach, loaded with so much respect for the artist!
Henk is supposed to join Nightwish on stage duing one of their shows. Can't wait to see that recording! 🔥🔥
Hi Here from Holland, we are so glad to have a show like this which is running for many years. It is such a joy to see how possitive you are commenting the singers and to high ligth the love and appriciation betweeen the singers. Love form Holland, greetz Bert
One of the two performances that I can listen to endlessly. Greetings from Poland.
He freaking NAILED IT 😎
Adding the distortion was for Floor and enhanced it to a level I don’t think ANYONE expected 😉
One of the things I really loved was how his acting history bled into this performance with his facial expressions and his body language with the leaning “attacks” for lack of a better term before pulling back at the very end 😊
He took ownership and made it HIS and that along with his amazing vocal performance made me believe this is his song from now on 👍
Thank you for this wonderful reaction and analysis and please keep making wonderful videos yourself 😁
There is a goddess sitting on the couch and in front of her her big idol sits on a bar stool and sings one of the most beautiful songs in history especially for her in a rock version - in these few minutes 100,000 more people could have been there, and yet these two stars would have been all alone in their room.
Henk Poort learned distortion in 2 weeks with his coach. He did it only for Floor. He mentioned when he does it in operas he would be instantly fired.
That is fully correct, yes!
he said that correct
As Floor respects him
He respects Floor ( maybe even more)
That is why he did it TERRIFIED as he was but for Floor he did it and nailed it
Haha who could fire him?😂
This is delightful. His tone is very pleasant and Floor's delight is evident and sweet to see. Also, yay to his courage to step out of HIS box of comfort and use the distortion in his voice (I suspect in part because of this being based on the "Disturbed" version of the song, but also to please Floor, who is clearly delighted), all while maintaining perfect control. It comes to show how it is never too late to experiment and expand one's toolbox and learn new ways to uses one's craft! He is a little intimidating ... but his little smile at the end was cute and even a bit self-deprecating. Sparkling notes, yes. Speaking of, I love the little tree behind you: its silvery sparkling putting an added sparkle in your eyes. :) How fun!
It is not a competition. It is just famous singers singing each others songs, just for the joy of music.
Great analysis. Henk is an Icon in The Netherlands. Please analyse his duet with Emma Heesters. A very young megatalent imo.
Another super masterpiece Emma & Henk singing Andrea Bocelli's song
Emma is fantastic and sooo young..
Henk Poort is just pure amazing singer, everything that he sing turn become gold. Thanks for your reaction 👍
Henk Poort was impressed everyone who didn't know him before, he is truly amazing singer. Thanks for your nice reaction and review to this performance.
Henk, he is some guy! A great voice, talented but also curious and very approachable. One of my daughters sings for the love of singing and she had some experience with him. A 'friendly uncle' type of man, she called him, appreciating every effort, stimulating, advising, inviting.
In the last episode of 'Beste Zangers' he sang a duet both with Floor and Emma. The way he adapted to both ladies and the type of duet he performed with them clearly shows his flexibility as-well as his talent. An admirable and lovely guy.
So yeah, your comment was spot on.
You nailed it with you first reaction! Not a competition just pure enjoyment!!
wow I loved your reaction to this song by Henk Poort I've been researching Floor Jansen and NightWish and found this thumbing threw some covers Floor did on Beste Zangers 1st time i heard it was last night while listening to a tribute to Floor on Beste Zangers it was about a 53 min CZcams where all of the singers did a song for Floor everyone of them just crushed the tune they picked for her Henk went last he was very worried about doing sound of silence because he is a opera singer in his duet with Floor "Phantom of the Opera" he tested distortion in 1 of his versus's so he decided to show case the "growl/distortion" in his song to Floor "Sound of Silence" since I watched it last night i have listened to it about 40 times then of course I see your reaction to it so 41 times hell he has decades of Opera singing who says he can't tickle his craft a bit now he absolutly kills this verssion I've never heard anything like it and i know this tune Simon and Garfunkal and the rock re make Henk Poort takes it to a new level loved it
Thank You so very much, my Lady! 💝. Beautiful, just Beautiful!
I really really love this from Henk,cant stop listening to it xx
great reaction I agree with your review its not a competition just respect for each other genre al the singers have a great time ,with love from the Netherlands
I think this is possibly even better than the Disturbed's version of this song. I've been a fan of Floor for a while but he is a new face for me. So a new fan here for Henk!
A sensational breakdown of this masterpiece. What I find exciting here is that you have dug into and discovered the beauty of the Zangers and a format where talent honors talent with song. I am so happy ypu did. Theres more to dig up. And maybe venture back a year or two . Excellent video this one. Goose bumps..........
being out of their comfortzone is one of the reasons that this show is all about. The singers need to sing songs out of their comfortzone.
I love this reaction where you break it into parts when I listen to him sing I can feel each time he hits "it" like a punch in the chest it is such a powerfull preformance sort of like he was born to sing this song to Floor Jansen I can't get enough of it thank you so much
Please listen to Henk Poort singing Noelia on Beste Zangers. It's one of my favorite performances of Henk.
Strong voice from Henk Poort, his version just perfect for me. Thanks for your reaction 👍
WOW from the thousands off so call vocal coaches you're the only one that knows what you're talking about,,,excellent breakdown and reaction,,love it.
So glad you liked :) Buddha is in the room, no doubt enjoying his singing.
Great reaction. Henk and Emma heesters have a great duet of vivo per lei it's probably my favorite of his vocal performances from the show.
Thank you very much for your impressive reaction. This show brought more unusual performances.

That one always gets me every time i listen to it. its hauntingly beautiful.
*Christi Bovee* , voice and heart coach, reacts: _"One thing that I just love about this [Dutch] show in particular ..." .... " and I don't know if it would ever work in the States because everything got to be a competition here." "it's beautiful to see this group of professionals just enjoying one another's gifting and talent ...."_
... so much power in the voice sitting down!! So so amazing... love the tone of his voice❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for reacting to this beautiful song redemption. Henk's voice was made me chills and got me goosebumps to all over my body.
I really liked the ‘Disturbed’ version of it. He did it live on Conan and it was impressive. He has so much vocal fry at the top it’s really good.
Imagine meeting one of your idols and NOT being disappointed...😊
How 'bout the shows Band?
Amazing group of musicians!!
Very nice! One small note about Phantom of the Opera, though: while Henk did play that role for many years, on this show was the first time performing the Nightwish version of the song :)
From this same episode Emma Heester's version of Floor's "Strong" and Tim Akkerman's punk-rock version of Nightwish's "Nemo" were also phenomenal.
The show started off as a kind of competition. "You got a gig but you get sick, who should you call to replace you?". That's why in each show a performer is in the middle and the others sings songs of that performer or related to that performer. In recent shows there's just a toast on the performer who impressed the host the most.
Already for 13 years.. every year a joy to watch. Some artists performed even more the once..
Some of the translated conversations going on with the participants outside of the stage, Henk is called "Uncle Henk." I guess he quite a jokester. It makes him all the more great in my eyes.
Yeah the singer show last year made more joy then all other years before. In the Netherlands this show is already for many years, but somehow this particular year the production found the correct unusual set of singers to join the program.
And for Henk Poort, hé was already a master back in the early 1990’s when he was actually performing for many years as the phantom in the musical of the phantom of the opera.
I remember at one point even the original producer of the phantom of the opera said Henk was the worlds best.
I don’t know if that is true tho or maybe he told that to all the world wide phantoms.
Nevertheless i have seen Henk Poort already a few times in his theatrical career in various roles and always he amazed me. Not one time he failed my expectations of his songs.
And it is fun to watch you analyze the songs.
Today I watched 3 videos from you. Nightwish’s Greatest show on earth, ghost love score and this one. And to be honest I enjoyed to listen to these songs differently when you analyze the vocal parts.
Very interesting.
You are fun to watch cause you seem so enthousiast about good vocals wether they are huge operatic or rocking, or simple small and soft.
Very nice.
Keeps only one thing to say:
Thank you for sharing these videos. 😊😊
You have yet another Dutch fan. 😊😊
Some examples of how in this show the artists sing outside their comfort zone; Samantha Steenwijk - Mama (Official Video Clip) normally sings Dutch ballads. Her song is sung by Mrs Jansen, Floor Jansen - Mama | Beste Zangers 2019.
And Samantha shakes her hair with, Samantha Steenwijk - Just The Way I Do | Beste Zangers 2019, a song from Tim Akkermans.
Also very nice to react to is; Emma Heesters & Rolf Sanchez - Pa Olvidarte | Beste Zangers 2019. Simply because it is a nice song and because of their playful chemistry.
Now that you have become a fan of Henk Poort, Henk Poort - Your Man | Beste Zangers 2019 is also nice to react to.
So glad to get your take on this outstanding performance! It's really inspiring to see such an accomplished singer go out of his comfort zone and try something new. My understanding is that Floor basically taught him how to sing with distortion backstage, and he picked it up that quickly. Mastery of the fundamentals goes a long way in singing, it seems!
I thought they didn't know what songs they were doing... Yes, a bit of snooping around and I got to a video where in its description box tells us that Alberto ter Doest and Daan Smits worked with Henk's distortion for the Beste Zangers. Here's a link: czcams.com/video/Qrya0qVOs6w/video.html
Thank you for this wonderful reaction video.
Another great song for you to watch from this show is Floor doing a rock version of a Salsa song, originally done by another one of the show participants.
The song is called Que se Siente.
I second that!
You absolutely nailed it with the description of what the show is about!
I have loved this version of the song by Henke .. but what made this special was your beauty in your reaction :)
Henk Poort & Emma Heesters - Vivo Per Lei | Beste Zangers 2019 ??????
I still havent seen the end of this song.... I have always tears in my eyes from second half. How does it end? :D
henk is a big name in the netherlands musical opera he is great
You made me smile with deep appreciation and affection on this one, dear lady. Splendid insights and lovely commentary :hugs:.
I believe that in the full episodes of this show, he mentioned many times he wants to have new experiences and even today learn new things to do with singing.
Beautiful song and indeed Buddha like calmness on his chair, and thank you so much for breaking it down, you're so good at that!
It is a very interesting program to watch. There are six singers for one week staying together on Ibiza and every evening there is one singer in the spotlight. They sing songs which are presious to the person in the spotlight. So the songs go quit deep for both the singer as he performs being on a small stage in front of the singer of the evening. Nice story about the Phantom if the opera is that it started to rain and thunder came. So while they where singing you can see rain poring down from the canvastent where they where standing. Nice to watch some episodes of Beste zangers.
your ratings are professional and passionate .... technical and emotional ... beautiful ... as much as your eyes
Watched both Henk Poort and Floor Jansen a few times now they are both very good .I see in comments about K Z T,you all so done one on Mr Tengri from singer 2018 , Can i suggest the first western singer to be invited to the contest, Jesse J she also won it with 47% of the vote.Not bad for a little old London girl. (1.2Billion watched the the last show.
Hi Christie. A fab reaction and thank you, subscribed! Like most people from outside Holland I came to this show via Floor as a Nightwish fan and was blown away by both the format of the show and the quality of all the performers. As people have mentioned, the Henke and Emma duet is definitely a must watch but i've also delved in to previous years that the quality is just fantastic. I think my favourite is the duet of Tania and Tommie doing Barcelona in 2017 is possibly better than the Floor/Henke duet but thats personal preference. If you get time please do check out some previous years as well. Thanks again for this reaction
Welcome and thank you for subscribing! I'm honored to have you here. This show is captivating. I'm focusing on this season, but thanks for alerting me to previous seasons as well ! It was something that never crossed my mind that it existed! ha! Blessings!😘
I love watching Tim Ackerman in this , eyes closed and just absorbing the music.
you are so beautiful and you have very beautiful smile , love your reactions and your comments , keep going
next one is Vivo per Le, a must hear ;-)
@3:37...When he sings the word "voices"...It's not just that it's pure, with pure tone, perfect pitch, and extreme power...It's so...dense...The only thing I can think of to compare it to is holding down a sustained note on a synthesizer. It sounds like he could just hold that note for a year if he wanted to...
Please also react to his duet with Emma Heesters Vivo per Lei
2nded.
Yes - His Duet with Emma was Great - Her voice is beautiful and very differnt style than floors. It was awesome.
I agree. Emma is great with Henk as well
That's a must see. I agree.
Unlike to Floor who is a powerhouse herself, I love how Henk was getting off his gas pedal to get Emma back in contention at the end. Henk selected that Italian opera hymn because he knew that it suits Emma's voice best.
Vivo per lei (I-live for you)
Hello Christi, as always a good evaluation of the contribution. As you pointed out at the beginning, I am of the opinion that this would not work in any other country. To bring a bunch of professional singers over 8 weeks into a camp without a competition idea. On the contrary - here the singers have the "order" to honour the one who sits in the hot seat next to the commentator. And there were a lot of very good contributions. Each of the participants was "forced" several times to leave his comfort zone and do something he had never done before.
To Henk - as you so aptly stated in one of your last videos - you never stop learning... but only if you get involved in something new and are willing to learn. Henk - as a representative of the classical genre - has never sung with rasp in his voice in his life. The classical faction would have stoned him to death. But - for the love of Floor - he got involved and put a contribution on stage that doesn't have to hide behind David Draiman. He sits there like a budda and his shoulders don't move a millimeter during the whole show. This is also proof of his extraordinary abilities.
No matter for which piece of music - or also contributions to the study of music - you decide... I am already looking forward to your next video. With you one does not only get good reviews on music videos but can also still learn something for life... And that makes you unique in the CZcams community. Stay as you are and don't let the mainstream take over you.
As good the duet of Henk and Floor was, the duet with Henk and Emma was my favorite. The best of this whole season.
Love your comment about the show ❤️ You notice the personal things
A lovely reaction thnx and Henk is a real Phantom.
I get the vibe that this lady would desperately like a slice of Henk.
I don't blame her 'coz he's awesome.
I think this show could work in the US, IF they got 2 or 3 superstars on the show.
One thing missing from every reaction so far, including this one, is that he's singing without feedback. No earbuds. He's the only one on the show, and I don't know any other pop/rock singer who does that. Am I wrong? Maybe nobody notices it because it's not as special as I think it is? Is it expected from someone with a theater/opera background?
ArumesYT : totally agree with you. Yes, it is special and sign of an absolute Master.
I only noticed it now that you, AnumesYT, have made me aware of it. It makes it even more amazing!
He's an opera singer, they don't use mics in opera so he would be perfectly comfortable without needing additional feedback. JMO
+ArumesYT
He did use those earbuds, it was when he sang Despacito.
czcams.com/video/OCdqp1Jv4CE/video.html
Singers have to use in-ear monitors when there's a rock/metal band blasting behind them. A singer has to hear themselves and that gets really difficult when singing with a megawatt rock/metal band. No way any orchestra can achieve the power of an electronically amplified rock/metal band. Once used to them, they become a requirement, even when not necessary.
Great reaction. It would be great to hear you react to Nightwish - Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean live from Buenos Aires at some point. It features Floor doing some really interesting things with her voice. In a few verses in the song she rapidly shifts between different vocal tambres multiple times in a single section, and so far very few vocal coaches have noticed or talked about that aspect of the performance in their reactions.
Hi. This is also a great song from the beste zangers. 2018 trijntje oosterhuis whit "something in side so strong"
I am from the Netherlands also and it is definitely a great show
He did it for Floor
He was terrified to do so
He's doing the Disturbed version. This is exactly how David Draiman sang it.
oh so he did the karaoke replica version? nice!
without Autotune though
I have to ask, have you seen the Disturbed version of the song? Disturbed on the Conan show does much the same in singing from the seated position. If you havent seen it I would highly recommend it
It's a stool, it makes the body a tad more open with the legs wide, so you create room while sitting I think 👀🎶🐱👤
Henk is a beast! I can see how he's looked up to even by other professional singers.
Have you listened to Song of Myself (Wacken 2013)? Floor demonstrates some low range singing there, and of course higher range.
Amazing person and singer Henk, thinking he is in his mid sixties..
What a nice deconstruction and such a good edit. Explains so well WHY it is so good.
I just happened to stumble upon your channel, and I'm very happy I did. I've watched Floor and Henk, as well as the rest of the Beste Zangers many times. I'm always impressed with their talent, and I appreciate your technical break down of the songs.
I don't know if this fits into your "wheelhouse," but if you could react to the A Capella group Home Free, that would be great. Thank you for all you do.
Very good, but Disturbed that did it this way first... is insanely good. I think my problem with this version is... it feels like he is just singing. With Disturb, he is feeling... way more emotion in it.
David Draiman's arrangement gave the song the power and majesty that it needed to convey the weight of sadness and eventual anger that it is meant to. Kudos to Henk Poort for attempting it!
Amen and great point at 1:50. Nice reaction ;)
Listen to Henk Poort & Emma Heesters when they sing..
Henk killed this...enough said. :)
What an absolutely wonderful and thoughtful reaction :) This was indeed an epic performance by Henk. I've admired him so much since seeing him live in The Phantom in the 90's. If you want to treat yourself to another mesmerizing Simon and Garfunkel cover, there's a version of Bridge over troubled water, sung by Whitney Houston and Cece Winans. It will blow your mind! :) czcams.com/video/KGL099t8i2s/video.html
Very interesting, thank you !!
Thank you for your comments!🌷🌷🌷
Thanks for your reaction. And as mentioned below by numerous people, also take a look at his duet with Emma Heesters: Vivo per lei.
He's not relaxed. He was a nervous wreck he said.
I think that the moment he sat down and started to sing he relaxed, otherwise he could not pull this out of his hat if he was nervous.
It is very common for people (think of athletes) to be nervous before they have to perform, but as soon as they start their performances they just switch to their performance mode.
Henk Poort is a very professional singer with a lot of experiences build up over decades so he knows for sure how to handle his nervousness.
@@komkwam My father was a singer and he used to say if you're not nervous before you go on then you are no good ... and if you are nervous once you are start then you will be no good :).
I get the impression Floor isn't the only lovely lady who has a crush on Henk :)
But who wouldn't? This man is so boss for making this look easy...
About what you say in how everything in the States needs to be a competition is a shame. My parents listened a lot to music from Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby and so on. It seems in that era there was a nice group of people that enjoyed the success of each other. Take Elvis and the Everly Brothers as well for instance. In those days everyone was singing the same songs. Now they just sue each other for everything it seems. Sad development =(
Can I recommend to you band Audioslave? I would really, really love to see your reaction to Chris' voice! :)
Anyways, keep this videos going, they are so wholesome and enjoyable to watch :)
Nice reaction. If you watched the rest of the episode, you'd had seen that Henk was very quiet for the whole episode prior to his performance. It was very untypical for him. Well, the reason was that he was so nervous about singing live for the first time with distortion (Phantom duet was the second time). His nervousness went off in the end when he winked at Floor.
But I agree his voice is incredible and I enjoyed the song. But I also agree to Rosannasfriend that this version was too close to David Draiman's version in order for me to have chills like I have listening to the cover by Disturbed. Very good first try but David has sung with distortion for years.
thanks for agreeing with me! I was worried I would tick someone off. haha. I do like Henk a lot. I just felt like it was a bit of a copy.
i would love to see some opera with distortion
i can imagine some good psrts that would grow with distortion.
