Something that you should know about FLOOR JANSEN. She started singing in a symphonic metal band at just 16 years old. After Forever (1995-2009). Then she created a new Progressive Metal band, ReVamp (2009-2016). In 2018 she released a personal Hard Rock project (Northward). In 2012, she was invited by Nightwish to finish their world tour, after the band's second female singer (Annete Olzon) left. In 2013 she became Nightwish's full time lead Vocalist. She is a singing teacher. She sings in Dutch, German, English, Spanish, Finnish, Swedish, Italian and Latin. She sings Heavy Metal, Trash Metal, Pop, Rock, Symphonic Metal, Arya and Opera. She even sang rap. In March 2023 she launched her first Pop solo album "Paragon". THE BEST SINGER TODAY IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

In my opinion, their last album is the best one. It it the only one without Mark Jansen on guitars and vocals. While I don't mind a scream here and there and I don't think it's a proper way of singing a whole song in that manner, but I would give to Mark Jansen that he makes himself clear when he does it, it's not just a constant aggressive rumble.

@@Platica.Vasile 1) The obligatory Mark Jansen comment on an AF video that’s always wrong.🤣 2) Fun fact: ALL the vocal parts in AF were written by Floor. Yes, the gutturals too. Sander Gommans who was actually doing most of them (on the first 2 albums too) didn’t even like growling. She made him do it.😁

@@noneofyerbeeswax8194 I might be wrong, but I do know what I like. Either way, growls might be useful for underlying a statement, an ideea or a feeling, but when all of the lyrics are sung or shouted in that manner, that effect disappears. That's why I like Epica when there are no growls or if they are, they are minimal.
@noneofyerbeeswax819411 ай бұрын
@@Platica.Vasile Yes indeed. As a fan of classic doom metal, I don’t like growls either - especially when you have a voice like Floor or Simone. This “beauty and the beast” concept was very popular in late 90-s, but very few bands managed to execute it properly. Mark really went overboard with the harsh vocals when he started Epica…

I don't think his ego would let her co-write with him!! She completely altered the ending to GLS, which made it super popular, but she had to ask him if it was ok to do it, but I don't think I have ever heard him credit her for that. I'm sure there are many other songs she added to, but she is too in awe of him to say. Anywa, she seems happy being in Nightwish, and that is the main thing. Cheers Ronnie

You need to get out of my sight A lonely heart can beat You're too dangerous A lonely heart can bleed I cannot stand it, to be enclosed and isolated A lonely heart can be enclosed but isolated You're too much A lonely heart is weak Too dependent A broken heart will seek You take the life out of me No heart is broken forever It's broken promises But my faith is broken forever Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real? The power that was given light now seems to freeze but why? A lonely heart will break Pressure will make me forsake you A lonely heart won't forsake me As if we're both the same Wounded and beaten but still not defeated A lonely heart can be wounded and beaten but still not defeated 'Cause I won't let you in So if it's all for real Your weakness will be my strength Your heart should be melting You might be lonely But I am not beloved and bounded forever Because we're all the same Beloved and bounded forever Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real? The smile that was given light now seems to freeze but why? Won't you believe? Won't you embrace it? Can't you believe The power between us? Oh, discord, see them fail, oh Won't you believe? Won't you embrace it? Can't you believe in the power between us? Can't you believe that this power we feel can be for real? The power that was given light now seems to freeze but why?
