Floor Jansen sings Adagio (Laura Fabian)!!! Reaction!! Superb!!

[@robg62]

At 61 I have heard a lot of music. About 2 years ago I stumbled on Nightwish and Floor absolutely is by far one of the best singers and human. Brings tears to my eyes so many times. No other singer has ever done that 🤘🤘🤘

[@sebastienwaslet9440]

Absolutly 😉😉

[@alleninfinity6730]

When Floor sings you don't just hear it, you feel it. It always feels like she is singing just to you.

[@robertsheeler321]

This is my favorite of all her covers

[@RonniePeterson]

I love the original by Lara Fabian and I'm not comparing the two. But Floor absolutely nails this one for me.

[@vlinder6329]

Great cover ✨ 🌹ADAGIO🌹 I get goosebumps every time she hits one of those notes... Omg... I love FLOOR FLOOR is a GIRL NAME in the NETHERLANDS and means 🌸FLOWER🌸 And Music as always by Tommy Johansson 🎸 ❤ Thank from Volendam the Nederland 🇳🇱

Such a great reaction. Floor touches the soul and is loved by men and women alike.

[@Thorgrim247]

I checked out your beautiful gift for Daniel. Talented lady! 🌹🌹Romance with a little power and longing mixed in to create the necessary emotion. Almost ever one of her covers done during the lockdowns is amazing and filled with beauty and power.

[@BrendonChase_2015]

Floor, a good mic (pretty decent) and a home recording studio is all you need. Or perhaps it gets even better with "Beste Zangers 2019", when she mesmerized everyone. No doubt you've got some BZ19 requests already. You'll love those performances even more when you get the English-subbed versions with the before/after banter. Great way to get some context with the songs and lovely interaction between all the singers. So there's this channel by the famed Jennie Noppers called "Floor op TV". Over there, you'll see a playlist aptly titled "Beste Zangers 2019". I suggest "Vilja Lied" for starters (since it was the first episode of the show when the others got to know Floor. Only Tim Akkerman knew her beforehand). Cheers from Amsterdam! 🤘

[@treintje1001]

Not quite sure what you mean with 'decent', but that mic she has there is more than 'decent'. It's pretty much the best one can get.

My favourite Floor cover. No question. So glad that you did this reaction because this one is to underrated 🙏

[@Cherlindrea99]

It's like you are blossoming since you're reacting to Nightwish and Floor Jansen. You look absolutely beautiful! The music of Nightwish helped me to get out of an almost five year lasting depression. One day I was walking my dog with "Storytime" on my headphone and started skipping and dancing, feeling energetic for the first time after all those gloomy years. As if a heavy weight fell of my shoulders. It felt like magic. The poetry and music of Tuomas and the emotional voice of Floor, it's so uplifting and empowering.

I think you have to go in Lara's World on her concert " from Lara with love"

[@lillm6874]

Second this 👍

[@ildefonsobenitez6624]

Floor does a very good cover of Adagio, although I prefer the live version of the Lara Fabian concert. They are both immense artists, each in their own musical style...

[@bennybuffylove]

Floor's solo stuff she did during Covid is so amazing after only seeing her performing with Nightwish.

[@marinamucic908]

The original by Lara Fabian is one of my favourite songs by her, but Floor did it at least just as good. She's just incredible! Btw, this is one of Floor's covers where music was done by Tommy Johansson 😃

[@Beatz-he5xe]

Yeah…just wauw is enough🎶

[@christinaalgate4899]

Floor shows us how she got the tattoos behind each ear . It's on her KZbin Channel called Story Time it might be episode 7. Story Time is about Floor. I really Love Lara Fabian 's version also. FYI Did you know Floor has freckles

[@pacscanadadatabaseservices3711]

Now, please review the ORIGINAL (see below) : FYI: She’s absolutely beautiful at 54 - LARA (not Laura) Fabian (Fabyanne) with links: Lara Fabian is a Canadian (Québécoise) of Belgian birth and Italian/Franco/Flemish cultural heritage. Lara studied piano, composition, and voice at a Brussels Conservatory for a decade. Lara is a full lyric soprano with a vocal range that spans four octaves (A5, B4, BB4, C3, C5, C#5, D5, E5, EB5, F5, F#5, G5) in live performances. She is multilingual; she speaks Italian, French, Spanish, and English and has sung in 12. Lara, who describes herself as a songwriter/singer, creates a high emotional connection with the listener. She has a discography of over 400 songs, has sold over 30 million records, and plays at sold-out venues worldwide. She lives with her husband and daughter in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I’m a ‘fan’ because of her high level ‘EQ’ (emotional intelligence) expressed in the text of her songs. La raison pour laquelle je suis un « fan » de Lara Fabian est son « QE » élevé, qu’elle exprime dans le texte de ses chansons.

[@ericsicard910]

Adagio is an italian word, that means "Slowly". This is also used in music to define the pace of a music (a bit slow, between lento and andante) and also as a name of a piece of a sonata, concerto or symphony that is using that specific pace. The music from this song of Lara Fabian is a pop translation of an italian classic piece called "Albinoni's Adagio". It was written in 1958 by Remo Giazotto who was an admirer of Albinoni, a musician from the 17th/18th century. He claimed it was from him and gave his music this name but there is consensus today that he most probably has composed it himself. The classic music piece is globally famous and there were many different translations into different songs, with different music compositions, mostly operatic, and different lyrics (the band Renaissance, Daniele Licari, Sarah Brightman and Sissel Kyrkjebo for instance). But the most famous version, by far, is Lara’s version: it was translated into a pop song for her, she wrote lyrics in italian then co-wrote the english lyrics for it and is the original performer of these 2 versions. She kept the title Adagio and wrote a story with a double meaning: a woman that is awaiting to find her love / an artist that is awaiting the god of inspiration. This song has become a classic and has been covered by many : Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash (Lara is his absolute idol and he covered several of her songs), Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Julie Anne San Jose, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, Il Divo, Rimar, Vitas, Anastasia Luna, Evgenia Fanfara, , … They made great covers but none of these match the amazing storytelling performance of Lara, or her ability to use vocal subtleties to be in sync with the music, exposed in her live from the concert From Lara with Love. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKLShGCBhLGJlZY Her italian version is also amazing. A famous italian version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5eaqZaDg5KHj6s Or you can check her recent excellent renditions: - in Paris early october 2022 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKbPmKt_Yp2toJY - In Tbilissi Georgia in april 2023 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iH63YWeVor1nmqcsi=jzIpgs_LdgX1ZjSV

[@NickBR57]

Well of course the Adagio was actually written by Giazotto and attributed by him to Albinoni, possibly to publicise his biography of Albinoni . So it's a cover of a cover. I prefer Floor's version to Lara's. Talking of singing anything, have you seen the video where a TV presenter gives Floor the Dutch phone book and she starts at latter A?

[@TTkingsman]

Hah. Tomaso Albinoni was born in 1671 and Remo Giazotto in 1910... It was Albinoni's Bass part what inspired Giazotto compose this piece. And that composition is the base for Lara Fabian's Adagio with Lara's lyrics. And only cover which is even close to Lara's is Gabriela Gunčíková's. And all covers are made in studios...

[@NickBR57]

@@TTkingsman Giazotto was writing a book on Albinoni which is where he picked up the idea. Strange statement to say all covers are done n a studio. I say strange - I mean it's nonsense. As to "Lara's lyrics" - debatable - several people were involved in the arrangement and lyrics.

[@pacscanadadatabaseservices3711]

You are right about the composition, but the text is by Lara Fabian, and she wrote a separate Italian version.

[@PauloBono1978]

This singer has a cute voice, with some vocal technique for what it shows, although I may be mistaken for this to be a playback, but other than that it is a decent cover of Mrs Lara Fabian Adágio. This singer made a good effort, very well, it could be better if she didn't try to copy the way Mrs Lara Fabian sings Adagio live. It is good to see reactions to singers who are not well known

[@Dutchman626]

I think you're looking at it too heavy. I think Floor sees this more as an ode to Lara Fabian, not a copy. Floor has so much baggage and experience.
