Lyrics - Sound of Silence:
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night and touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared disturb the sound of silence
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls and whispered in the sound of silence"

i came to see Floor and I discovered Henk, tonight is a good night.
Check their duet from tonight. It is on CZcams now, phantom of the opera
What a great singer he is.
same here, no words...
Same, same!
Me too! Very great!
3:07 floor having a henkgasm
correct
LOL Floor? HELL ALL OF US>> :)
I think we all had one lol
Emma had a big one at 2:27.
Poortgasm?
The way Henk looks at Floor at the end : "yes, it was for you my dear"
That's EXACTLY what he said!
Unpopular Opinion. This is far better than the original.
This show does that😅
Simon and Garfunkel are my favorite band of all time--but you are right.
@@romebigred2 I think Henk just has that haunting strength behind his voice.
It's my favorite version.
If you have not seen the Disturbed version of this song, which is what Henk was styling this performance after, do yourself a favor and listen to it. Henk is great, this performance is great, but the Disturbed performance is better.
The metal world now knows you Henk.
Indeed! And, we are better for it!
Indeed! Big Respect for Henk! Damn I've gt Henkgasm
@@rheyv5790 hahah great
@@rheyv5790 me too :-)))
Damn right! Awesome!!!
David Draiman, and many metal singers, have years and years of training to do distortion well and without harming your voice. Henk sings opera. In honour of Floor's love for metal, he sang the Disturbed version and attempted distortion of the first time in his life (with two hours of practising!). Which is a big thing to try and though he is no David, he did wonderfully on conveying the same emotions that David did. Just imagine what Henk could do if he had had those years of training! You can have a preference but you cannot go about thrashing this man in the comments because he is 'not a metal singer and should never try'. Then you have missed the point of this show and the point of music in general.
thank you!
Who is David Draiman? 😂😂 This is Henk Poort oké !!!!!
nobody cares about David. Uncle Henk is the best.
@@user-vu2hw9tb6w rrly im dissapointed
go gaming 😋
has anybody actually noticed his tears early on in the song, when Floor has looked at him in such admiration, and he realises how much this means to her?
He did this after TWO HOURS OF PRACTICING singing with distortion in his entire life. And as an opera singer that means doing the opposite of what he's been doing all life long, always seeking the purest and cleanest notes. And yeah you can definitely hear that, in how his voice becomes suddenly warm and smooth in some moments. This is incredible.
The complete season was amazing. This is one of the highlights.. Also, as a Metalhead i have seen Floor and Henk Live in Nijmegen.. Simply amazing.
It was the best version I've ever heard
2 hours of practice 😂😂😂😂😂😋😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
and it definitely sounds like it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
he should have been practicing for two months lol.
@@dabunnyrabbit2620 yes. I'm Dutch. It's a television program where they have several hours to practice that day
@@dabunnyrabbit2620 more stupid smilies pls..he sounds amazing and if you say other you have 0 plan of music. period..dont even reply, just shut the fuck up
Imagine him and Floor singing together “The Phantom Of The Opera”. That’d be simply beautiful and awesome!
And it's going to happen!!😀
@@mykindamakeup you think so?!
@@giorgospex8188 Confirmed
Would be amazing! :D + Songfestival Rotterdam 2020 Floor Jansen + Henk Poort!
@@giorgospex8188 the Beste Zangers are going to bring out an album of this season and that song is on the track list. Yaaaaaaay!!!
Henk Poort...Singing Simon and Garfunkel...As rendered by Disturbed...For Floor Jansen...
When do I wake up?
@KAT Allthough they sound amazing together, this song is not made for a female voice.
@@MrWitteman10 I think it could work. The original was a duet with a minimal guitar line. They could draw from that style and make something I have no doubt would be amazing.
He did this seated. Most singers prefer to stand so their diaphragm can drop unimpeded by the abdomen. One of the most powerful, beautiful performances I've ever heard. I love Floor sitting there mouth agape. She recognized this was a historic performance and she was witnessing magic. Two world class singers.
The version he did is the one by Disturbed and David Draiman(singer) also does it sitting because it fits this song and as you see Henk did it perfectly
Floor is a good enough technician of the singing to know what he's doing. She knows he's kicking ass.
I came to see Floor and ended up falling in love with Henk 💜
I loved his expression in the end: "I may be the oldest, but not too old to sing metal"
He is amazing.
You read my mind. I was very critical when I saw this show when it first aired. Upon rewatching it, I give this man all the respect and honor he deserves. Although the Simon and Garfunkel version would have served his vocals better, the fact that he put distortion in his voice and still managed to hit every.
Single. Note. Well, I have tears in my eyes and knots in my guts.
old, but not obsolete
That eyebrow raise and smile is the face of an "old" icon just proving to the world that Old is GOLD. 🥇
G-OLD, henk 👍👍👍👍
Its not a metal song though sooo whats the point here?
Get you a girl that looks at you the way Floor looks at Henk
She's 16 in those reaction shots, isn't she.
Floor probably was thinking "I must have a duet with him"
@@alanfoster6589 she looks way too old to be 16 lmao
@@larsdikwijls5388 Not in that look she gave Henk ;).
@@larsdikwijls5388 yeah. But she's been a fan of him since she was a teenager. Hence, why "she's 16" because she was a fangirl in those moments
Jesus christ this brought a tear to this old metal heads eye.
Damn... I just had the same!
@@Maximum357 the same here !
Same here...
Floor led me here as well, but Henk Poort... wow, what an INCREDIBLE voice! His singing goes through the ears directly into the soul
I especially thought they were magical together.
I think she has been an admirer of Henk for a long time and would love to do this program with him.
Something you can see so well in their duet.
Not because I'm dutch but best version ever doing the oppisite of what he learned as opera singer plus he was sitting down
Holy sh*t this was EPIC. Well done, Henk. What a gentlemen - what a voice!!
You can tell he's an opera singer! He has awsome control of his voice but I was amazed that he distorted his voice most opera singers are not able to do that because is a technique that singers in that field never would use in their style. I knew he was an amazing singer but this gave me a whole new level of respect for that man!
I'm glad Disturbed made that song into this masterpiece, that needs to be said too
I love how at the end after he mezmorized the whole world he just acted like it was no big deal.
@@42earthling belive me it wassend...he is just a humble man with world class talend.
Exoticgirl1 .the best metal singers have classic opera schooling.the best aczample is Jeff tate best metal singer ever
Kippevel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This explains why Henk seemed nervous all evening, knowing he was going to do this HUGE song, in the Disturbed rendition of it.
Well, he didnt have to be nervous one bit, omg!! did he nail it...
It starts with the low rumble of the earth moving, goes into the grass, rustling, the trees moving in the wind, up into a clear blue sky, and then a storm comes, only to be broken open at the end of the song, letting the sunshine back into the world.
Just wish he would have worn David Draiman's lower lip piercings 🤘
RIGHT!!! I noticed that too. He is amazing, I'm Happy floor was on this show or i would have never been introduced to this incredible man
j0hnn13K Yes, well observed. His face was contorted almost all the time.
@@nielsw9911 gaat verder wel lekker met je?
Wauw what an epic discription. Spot on!
I don't know what's best, how impressively good a singer he is, or how humble he seems. That "did I do it right ?" look on his face at the end. Well, yes, good sir, you did it right. Better than anyone else ever did, actually.
I think if he had looked at Floor's expression, he'd know that he did it right.
Very impressive, but.... disturbed did it better. IMO of course.
Thats probably because hes not a singer, but a theater and muscial performer. There is a "old" dutch version of Les miserable where he sings it sounds very powerfull
@@weslooosPardon maat wat is het verschil tussen een zanger en iemand die musicals zingt?
@@thomastakesatollforthedark2231 andere manier van zingen
Henk's reaction at the end of the performance, with that eyebrow raise he was like, "That's right, I did that."
The Disturbed version was played at the funeral of my father, that was 3,5 month ago. I broke down in tears when Henk started to sing.
Peace to you, and your family!
Sorry for your lost
I am sorry for your lost. You will never be able to listen to this song without crying.
Tears in my eyes aren't even able to tell how it hits me
same✌🏻
This was a surprise , Best of the evening to be honest,. Those notes are heavenly
Henk Poort was 100x better then Emma Heesters.
@@bandar3804 that was because Emma sang Strong which Floor wrote about her mother. Song has special meaning to Floor.
Being in the US, I have absolutely no idea exactly what the premise of this show is (but have an idea thanks to Google) or who Mr. Poort is but oh my damn.. That was extremely well done.
@@Whatthechuckttv Basically, the show is a celebration of music. They take 7 accomplished singers from different backgrounds of styles, each week one of them sits in the spotlight, and the other 6 sing them a song from their repertoire or that has special meaning to them. There's no competiition, no prize, it's just a celebration of good music.
@@fnglert that was the basic information I was able to find. It sounds like a brilliant show and really shines a spotlight on some very talented people and some amazing music from all genres and eras.
For God sake this performance should earn billion views, best rendition ever!
YtseJam MaJesty I disagree, it’s good - but Disturbed’s version on the Conan channel is breath taking!
I suppose it’s done in one take too?
I agree, therefore I'm watching it every day. Trying to get him as many views as possible cause he deserves it, that was hands down the best rendition of this song I've ever witnessed. And he's a dutchie like me which makes me really proud😊
What a man, what a voice...just Great. Tks Mr Henk.🇵🇹
Don't get me wrong, this is the best version of 'Sound of Silence'. His voice is just incredibly good. Imagine if it sung with full orchestra band behind.
Duet with Floor would-be be Nice 😍
Credit goes to the disturbed. It's their version that he sang.
HB Gazzers i would love to here this with orchestra!
@@Rosannasfriend but he's better than disturbed. And the real credit goes to simon&garfunkel for writing the song.. :P disturbed simply covered it.
@@just2000ofme dude i think disturbed did it better tho
The raise of the eyebrow at the end said "I killed it didn't I" 😁😁
I would have loved to hear him singing Johnny Cash hurt
The "original" is by Cash! It's his song now.
@@neonman855 original is by 9inch nails
@@soucejo1 Woosh.
@@soucejo1 not anymore, once cash covers your song. It's his song
Ben Olofson True that!
He has one of the cleanest and clearest voices I've heard. What a marvelous cover of this song
Floor and henk did phantom of the opera together it was henk who played it for years I love henk his voice but in that song floor was overpowering henk and he knew it and still both of them had respect
Oh wow wow wow. Who would have thought just being a Nightwish fan would land me here listening to this absolutely amazing performance.
Right!!??!!??😂
Me too, how the hell did that happen? but later when you hear the duet with Floor you understand why!
Man, this is my new favorite comment on YT.
#up!
I would never of thought that this show, and Floor that I would be a fan of Nightwish
What a boss! That facial expression at the end is priceless.
Like it was nothing...
Henk Poort is one of the best singers EVER, no matter what. This song is opposite of what hes been used to his entire career. The man is a LEGEND
I don't know how Henk feels about this being the most internationally known thing he's ever done, but man it's so perfect. He's a talent and he should be happy to know how many international music fans he touched with this simple performance.
And god his voice is so powerful and clear. Immaculate.
Je ziet Emma, Tim, samantha kijken!!! Dus dít is zingen???
Sweet Odin's Beard! His voice is like solid mature oak mixed with the darkest of chocolate...the timbre, the control, the emotion...wow. I bet David Draiman is sat watching this nodding along with due respect and admiration :)
Love your comment 😊
I know this comment is old but it hit the nail right on the head! I commend your writing skills good sir :)
Still think Draiman's got this one ahead a very little tiny toe. Lets say they're both frigging awesome!
I agree and I think it’s the vowels. David Draiman does the long n sounds that make the song, where Henk Poort holds the actual vowels, like a singer would normally do.
Floor may be the warrior princess of Metal Opera - but Henk was a God of Thunder that night.
Thor and the Valkyrie
Henk Poort - THIS video is why CZcams should exist. This is so amazing to reach people like me who would have never seen him. Simply AMAZING!!
I think this is the best performance I've ever witnessed
I just yelled YES really loud when Henk started distorting his voice with the power
I did the same think! lol At the end I was on my feet my punch to the sky! 10 000 fists!
And that was legitimate distortion. Not the insanely autotuned crap like the disturbed version.
Wow, when he starts singing so low: "Hello darkness, my old friend... I come to talk with you again..." Goose bumps!
What a power in his voice while he is still sitting the whole song. RESPECT!
best singing show i've seen. this format is all about respect and talent.
Oh God...this was insane. Lots of ballads to the metal queen. Really loved every song this evening...wow!
I really did not expect these choices to be honest, but they are beautiful songs and that matters
@@Immortall1408 yes...this was a surprise, have to wait for the show to be translated
@@Piia2023 one piece of translation I will give you. Samantha's comment: "he started to sing soo low the couches were vibrating"
@@rickybouman21 I can imagine that...😀
@@Immortall1408 A lot of the nightwish work is around 6 minutes. That doesnt exactly fit in a 50 minute show. ;)
I had never heard of Henk before this. He is certainly talented and has one of the best male voices I have ever heard.
Same here..
Same here. A voice like that deserves full on international stardom. There are zillions of useless, annoying, wouldn't-exist-without-autotune talentless "singers" out there and Mr Poort here is basically unknown outside of the Netherlands ? We do live in a strange world.
@@Uryel99 Fully agreed.
@@Uryel99 The whole piece of shit pop scene is filled with those trash, while we have those gems hidden from the international levels.
And thats fuckin sad.
oh, and get this. him doing this song is completely out of genre for him. him singing opera's is out of this world entirely
Eindelijk weer een zanger die geen autotune nodig heeft.. Heerlijk!
Two years later, and many times of listening to it again and again, it still gives me goosebumps!
Me too,,
🤗
This has always been one of my favorite songs, but only Henk makes me fall to my knees, every time.
me to buddy
You are not the only one
As a dutch metal fan, a nightwish fan, a floor fan and a disturbed fan i have to say i am so glad Floor joined a dutch tv program for once, so that she can finally teach the majority of our people that metal can be THIS BEAUTIFUL. And i say majority because ofcourse there are dutch metal fans who know how good she is.
Yes I totally agree!! I hope in that in the next editions they invite more (symphonic) metal vocalists on the show. We have such amazing talent in the Netherlands that no one knows about except a few metalheads. Anneke van Giersbergen, Charlotte Wessels, Sharon den Andel (although she did the Belgian show last year), Simone Simons, Dianne van Giersbergen to name a few.
@@Carrinthe would love to see Sharon from Within Temptation, on de beste zangers 2020
@@danakil1 I hope you've seen Sharon on "liefde voor Muziek 2018" the belgian counterpart. I really enjoyed her covers, for example this K's Choice cover czcams.com/video/h5acQyWqz8U/video.html
@@Carrinthe I havn't seen that yet, thx for the link i will watch it in the evening
Here I sit having lunch, thinking to myself "self, what is this guy doing trying to cover David's version of this song? He's good, but really?"
Then my chewing slowed as the song progressed, and I found myself with the same goosebumps I get from the Disturbed rendition. By the end of the song, my mouth was full of sandwich and hanging agape in awe. Utterly beautiful rendition.
I mean, the guy is a trained opera singer. David couldnt hold a candle, lets be real.
If he was to cover a song that requires more "edge", like "down with the sickness" for instance, then he would struggle, but on this there is just no chance he wont outsing David any time of any day.
@@juyifan7933 David Draimen also has classical training if I recall correctly, though obviously Henk has years more experience.
The big difference is that David uses autotune.
@@petergroenendijk2297 Yes sadly, there is a lot in the studio version, but David's live performance of it was very good, and I don't believe he used autotune for that version.
@@Iamthecrazyone if you are talking about the Jimmy Kimmel version then yes, he did use a lot of autotune.
This gave me goosebumps. The best rendition of this song I’ve heard. ❤
I have no idea who these people are, but I have to say it amazes me the way that woman looks at Henk. Pure admiration. Like she is proud. Like watching someone you know and love do something really impressive. A genuine look. Not for the camera. But for herself.
The woman is Floor Jansen, an amazing vocalist in her own right the man singing (Henk Poort) was one of her idols growing up, checkout thier duet of Phantom of the opera.
Now I have heard just about everything. Henk distorting his voice like that. Really didn't expect that! Amazing!
Indeed. I didn't expect him to go full Draiman, but he killed it. Given his opera/theater background I wonder how much experience he has in using fry like that?
@@matthewarms3786 He mentions in the full episode that doing that is absolutely frowned upon in the opera world and thus has not really done that before
@@matthewarms3786 He was super nerous, because it was way out of hhis comfortzone. At the end you saw him smile like "Uncle Henk" just after he had done this wonderfull piece of art.
The face of floor!!! (she was in another universe), Mr Poort absolute amazing!!!
Now she knows how we mortals feel when she sings.
every now and then you come across something that is totally brilliant
I won't lie, I get some tears coming out of my eyes now. Damn dude, a wonderful song sung by a wonderful singer. Henk, mad respect dude.
Never heard of this man before until I saw him on Dutch TV yesterday. He's got himself a new fan. WOW WOW WOW goosebumps all over, best version in my opinion so far. Thank you Henk Poort.

Sorry.
@@cdgs7793 I never mentioned God. Henk is the legend. And he created a legend.

@@tonvanvelzen1369 Yup I am
@@ajayjust2626 So, that is clear for everyone. Thanks for your reaction!
Zo'n mooie serie dit. Ze waren stuk voor stuk fantastisch. Henk en Floor paar streepjes voor. Maar zo'n strak seizoen nooit gezien. Dank allen voor een epic nostalgisch nooit meer te evenaren seizoen. Henk met THE Sound of Silence, magistraal. Maar The Phantom of the Opera, Henk en Floor, dit gaat NOOIT MEER overtroffen worden. Best DUET ever. Hier gaat niemand in de buurt komen. Hoe het gezongen wordt, briljant. De chemie tussen jullie, wordt nooit meer gehaald. Echt super. Luister dit nummer heel vaak met elke keer weer tranen. Zooooo Mooiiiiiiiii. Dank lieverds 💕
I love this so much. The power in the high notes, the subtle beauty of the low notes, the smile at the end... legendary in my eyes.
HOLY SHIT THATS THE BEST VERSION OF THIS SONG EVER WHOA!
@@HibbelstitzYea he's doing the Disturbed version, not the Simon and Garfunkel version.
@@pmasher He's actually hitting the high notes too! I enjoyed the Disturbed version but near the end of the song David Draiman was beyond his range, not so with Henk. I loved this!
@Pixel MINDREADER
No it isn’t. Paul Simon solo in New York on 9-11 that was impressive
Feeling the chemistry between Henk and Floor. Lovin it
100% . you can see the direction he looks just at the end, its directly in floor's eyes :)
i don't think i've ever heard a more powerful rendition of this song. Bravo. Thank you
If you want to hear a really awesome performance look up the sound of silence performed by Disturbed on the Conan O’Brian show. This is really good but Disturbed will give you chills. It does me everytime.
@@jeremykoepplin1587 no one will be able to defeat the disturbed version
I come back to this every couple of months.. I can't even begin to describe it, it sends chills down my bones every time. Thank you so much for this, Henk! I really love it.
Holy , this guy could become one of the Lords of Metal
LOL
Yep at least collaborations
This was downright awesome. First, as an opera singer distorting his voice which he'd never done. Second, controlling his nerves while stepping way out of his comfort zone. And at last nailing it and move Floor like this? Amazing!!
I will never be able to get the sound of Henk's voice out of my head after hearing him sing.
Wow! The power to your emotions, is overwhelming.
"Alright kids, let me show you how it's done!"
Haha yeah
Pretty much. He's nailed it.
One word : WOW!!!
I'm so glad he did Disturbed's version of this song. It really suits him.
Played this at my grandfather's funeral in November last year. He loved this show and especially Henk Poort and Floor Jansen. This song, Frank Sinatra's 'My Way' and Time to say goodbye from Andrea Bocelli. Didn't know this song would make such an impact. So beautiful and full of emotion which is conveyed perfectly! Thank you Henk Poort for your cover!
Best version of this song I've heard.
I expected him to be great but he still managed to surprise me with his greatness. I’m glad that I found out a voice like his exists.
The Man approves
If you wanna know more of him, here's his own site: www.henkpoort.nl/index_english.html
I spent the entirety of this in tears. One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard in my life.
I still listen to this version almost every day. It's not normal how Henk is doing this song.
Henk thank you for this and all your other songs and work.
Toch blijft de cover van Disturbed de beste ...
@@mischobiemans2816 nope
I think Henk deserves some special respect. Before he sang this he said "if in the world of classic music you go metal, you're out'. So this was a very fragile thing to do for him. But he did it anyay. He expended his horizon. Classic music can be great but it still shows how closed that world is if they can't respect anything else than their own kind of music and never try something different to expand the posibilities. This is the 21st century, not the 18th or 19th century anymore.
But do they not realize that Metal is the modern day classical music? Beethoven would have kicked some serious ass if he could have used electricity as well
This dude has a powerful voice! I'm not familiar with his work but this sounds like it barely scratches the surface of what he is capable of.
He was our Phantom (of the Opera)
@@Bambammetje Lol the musical business is booming in the Netherlands....
@@Bambammetje Henk is now Samantha ?
@@Bambammetje I first heard him in the mid 90s. For the 10th anniversary of Les Miserables there was a concert performance at The Royal Albert Hall in London..and for the Finale they had a bunch of men who had Played Jean Valjean come onto the stage..and each of them singing a line of Do You Hear The People Sing in their own language...and he was one of those men
@@jody024 Soldaat van Oranje wederom verlengd!
That look on his face at the end did seemed to say: Did I do good? Do I get your approval? Cute, by a seasoned singer.
Holy fuck I'm in tears......
This man is absolutely fantastic!! When he begins to rise his voice, I am getting goosebumps and my eyes start watering! He nails this song like absolutely noone else! My deepest respect, Henk Poort! I absolutely adore your voice!
This is now no.1 on the Dutch charts. Well deserved, Henk’s version is at least as good as Disturbed’s. Floor should be very proud. Because of her there is a metal song topping the charts in a country that mainly cares about pop. She may almost single handedly introduce metal into the pop culture of the Netherlands.
Metal was normal on the radio in the 90's and the early zero's on Dutch radio. Only the last 10/15 years it has vanished from the radio. The Gathering and Within Temptation already had top40 hits as Dutch acts, besides the well known artists like Metallica, Limp Bizzkit, Korn and the likes. So you could only say that she might be an influence on the return of metal in pop culture.
Lieve Henk: als je gekloond kan worden dan wil ik jou!...Wat een uitstraling en persoonlijkheid. Wat is jouw vrouw een geluksvogel..En voor je zang-en acteertalent bestaat maar 1 woord: fenomenaal👌👍🤗😘
Vind ik ook
henk poort is voor mij de beste zanger van de wereld echt mooie gezongen
en dat is zeker niet een beetje overdreven!
Just come across this, fantastic version
That guys voice can burst a rock. Emma's and his performance are my absolute favorites of this Episode.
This is officially my favourite version of this song 😍
Here's your new favourite version : czcams.com/video/H3By4DZyTNM/video.html
This is AMAZING. I´ve never heard a better song.
He's absolutely amazing. I love the smiles on Floor's face as she listens to him.
I love it. Floor having a Henkgasm lol!
zit je helemaal in dit lied en zijn sound....trekt hij op het einde even zijn wenkbrauwen op.....donder je zo van je wolkje. Henk: GEWELDIG!
Wow, Henk really nailed it! I think this is far better than the Disturbed version - though obviously they were brilliant in their own reinterpretation of the song. I love the moment at 3:11, and just before. Floor looks at first so dearly touched, and then filled with awe. It was a dazzling performance. Truly beautiful.
The best part is he is doing it against his nature as opera singer and he was sitting down what is most impresive
This is literally one of the most beautiful song/interpretation ever. It gave me shivers.
It is actually the interpretation from Disturbed, but I agree. And so does Paul Simon btw.
Floor loves him, and I don't blame her...he is just amazing!
Wow! What a surprise! I was not expecting this version of the song from Henk Poort, but he nailed it! Pow! I was already moved to tears, and then he blew me away when he turned his vocal amp up to 11! !!! He took a risk by stepping outside his comfort zone, and it paid off in all the best ways. Thank you for this powerful and emotional rendition, Henk Poort. Thank you for sharing your beauty and soul with all of us.
Wow! Thank you Mr. Poort!
Am sorry but I think this is even better than the original... my God...
3:10 this made me jealous, he made floor have a floorgasm, this should be illegal.
*poortgasm 😉😉
Out of sight, unreal
Piss off Lesley. Sounds like you've never listened to Nightwish.
Apparently Lesley has no clue what the hell a floorgasm is.
hell yeah, this guy is the only one who can sing on the same level as Floor there!
Please let Floor and Henk sings some heavy duet
Thy wish was granted... :-)
I was really impressed with Disturbed rendition of this awesome poetry.
This man's voice is just like a roll of thunder !
Absolutely amazing gift God granted him !
You can see Floors admiration everytime the camera is on her face. She looks at him like a teenaged girl looks at her celebrity crush. So sweet. =)
Well done old man. Goose bumps. Never thought I would hear anyone sing it as well as David Draiman. Why have I never heard of Hank Poort? He rocks.
Henkgasm.....🤘😁
Greate singer. Powerfull voice. With respect.
tomorrow will be the hardest day in my life. My mothers burial. this is, somehow, very comforting.
My condolences 🖤
May she rest in peace
