[Reaction] Floor Jansen - Euphoria , Beste Zangers (The Goddess has Spoken)

[@tthompson5707]

The more and more I see of Floor I'm even more convinced that she is a once in a lifetime performer.

[@calibadgerdude6082]

Absolutely. We are absolutely blessed to be able to witness this talent in our lives. Only other person I can think of that can compare to her in terms of vocal ability, performance, charisma, and sheer versatility is Freddie Mercury. If only Freddy had lived long enough to meet Floor, imagine what those two could have done together.

[@hazelangus]

I have to agree. Even the vocal coaches have a fair bit of difficulty with maintaining a professional detachment.

[@fnglert]

Floor Jansen is a Valkyrie sent by Odin to Midgard collect the souls of the fallen, but once here she figured that the best way to collect our souls was to make us all fall for her.

​@@mkgym and despite all of that, as we as the Netherlands do not involve ourselves in that political voting game, we almost came no. 1 with The Common Linnets and won with Duncan Laurance. If you send a good song and a good performer then at one point you will have a good result. Most of the Dutch competitors of the last few years (including this year's entry) have been working on their entry for quite a few years before they get asked (there is no national contest) to compete.

I agree. The quality difference between the original kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJTRiKypdp6artE and Floor's version wasn't as great as with the Oblivion 83 but even with this the Floor version is clearly better.

Tom this is the song that Swedish singer Loreen sang to win the Eurovision Song Contest in 2012. Beste Zangers is doing its Song Festival from their studio in Hilversum, Netherlands. Floor's singing from her home studio on the farm in Sweden as she still is unable to fly post-surgery-- the woman is superhuman.

When you do Floor songs from the Dutch show Beste Zangers, please do them with your wife. My favorites: Vilja Lied, About Love I Don't Know a Thing and Phantom of the Opera. The concept is not a competition but singers coming together to celebrate each others' music.

I know we are all huge fans of her but lets be honest... few are as big a fan of Floor as Rolf Sanchez is. He never ever can hide his excitement when she sings, always that big smile and always rocking out to her vocal power :D This is actually one of the songs i really like but.... Floor she did it again, she turned it up to 11.

[@mesiah21]

Wow, no idea Floor had did another Beste Zangers song. Of course you know, we are waiting for the reaction to Phantom of the Opera she did on Beste Zangers.

[@treintje1001]

It was a special themed episode that was broadcasted just two hours ago dedicated to the upcoming Eurovision Song festival. Floor was not able to join the recordings due to the surgery that she's had recently, so they solved it with a stream from Floor's own studio in Sweden.

[@johannesmenzel2024]

@@treintje1001 It's not a live stream. Floor's part is clearly pre-recorded, as is the video (you can easily see that the shots are from at least two different takes if you look at the position of her cape). This doesn't make the performance worse, but just to mention - a live stream with band and singer in different places is not possible in that quality, as the latencies of the double transmission would make it appear out-of-sync.

Definitely worthwhile checking out the orignal too, Loreen is fabulous aswell. Floor manages to take something amazing to even higher ground, like the goddess she is

[@Fabi72g]

You should be the fastest reactor ever, I think you are the first to react to this. Due to her surgery recovery Floor was unable to be present live at the show, so she recorded this. The song is by Loreen and it's the winner of Eurosong 2012, and as always Floor did an astonishing cover of it. I'm so happy to see her like this, she looks so beautiful and sounds amazing, can't wait to see the NW virtual show the 28th May.

Yet another cover of a song which she makes her own. Love your enthusiastic reaction, and you are spot on about it seeming like Floor sings directly to you.

What? You found a performance by Floor that I haven't seen before? Oh, well done you!

[@stups9975]

Wow. This song is amazing. Of course she kills it. She slays anything she sings. If you already hadn’t I would recommend to follow her KZbin page .. you will stay in the loop pretty good then. Also Nightwish will be doing a live virtual concert coming up soon. So that is what many of us Nightwish fans are looking forward to. Floor recently had to have surgery for kidney stones and is recovering from that and trying to rehearse for the concert. I’m sure she will slay it like a Valkyrie. I’m not sure when this song was recorded. If it was a recent recording after she had her surgery then it super impressive that she could perform like that. But anytime Floor drops a new song or cover we fans just swoop in and gobble it up ASAP. They are always amazing.

[@dtfanboy]

Hey Tom, I've never commented on any of the hundreds of reactions of Floor I've watched, (yes I'm a 60 year old FANBOY!). But she is the one above all! There have been many great female singers throughout history, ! And she can do it all with ease! And she is absolutely stunning to boot! Can't wait for the livestream shows coming at the end of the month, and can't wait to see Nightwish when they come to Lowell, MA in October! I had seen them here on the Decades tour which was just awesome!

[@jerryvt7432]

Floor is singing this song from her home studio, because she is just recovering from a gall bladder operation (Yes, sir!). Therefore she had to cancel her actual presence in the studio for this "Beste Zangers" Special for the Eurovision Songfestival. This big event (2 million spectators in over 40 countries !) is going to be held in two weeks time in The Netherlands (in Rotterdam), because Netherlands won the last contest in 2019 ("Arcade" by Duncan Laurence, worthwhile to check out as well). The song "Euphoria" won in 2012 (by Loreen from Sweden). If you want to see more of Floor's versatility, go to the regular show of "Beste Zangers 2019" (= Dutch for best singers). It's a great TV show, where famous singers sing a special song for one of their colleagues. You will hear her sing in German, Dutch, English, Spanish, opera, rock, soft balads, she can really sing everything. Enjoy you Floorgasms !
