ReVamp - Disdain Live at Graspop (2010) Vocal Coach Reacts & Deconstructs

[@silverblack5475]

She was born to be on stage .....she has the most commanding presence since Freddie Mercury.

[@onearthonelegion]

Bruce Dickinson

[@SuperMoofie]

Agree 1000% And if I'm not mistaken, Floor has much respect and admiration for Freddie. If you watch her movements at the end of some songs, she raises her arm in the air like Freddie did, and there are some other subtle movements that are similar to Freddie's. It surely has to be a nod to his incredible genius.

[@silverblack5475]

@@SuperMoofie absolutely 💯....she has made no secrets of her admiration of the late great Freddie Mercury......shes been asked many times , if she can do a duet with anyone , who would it be and Freddie Mercury is always the answer .

[@somedigitalist7681]

ReVamp was a really important step in Floor's career as it is the first time she got to write songs that used *all* of her vocal tools however she saw fit to tell the stories of the songs. This is where Floor really began to develop her 'vocal grammar' of how she uses different timbres for storytelling purposes. Over the years since she has highly refined the quality of many of those vocal placements and added a bunch more, of course, but this is really the foundation of the vocal approach she brings to Nightwish, to her covers, and to her forthcoming solo work.

[@tinag505]

Yours is the BEST reaction and deconstruction of this performance 👏

[@timhutchinson8485]

By this point, Floor had been in the music industry for about 13 years already. She joined After Forever when she was 16.

Strange math lol.

[@timhutchinson8485]

@@ivantheterrrible9213 I realize I phrased it a little backwards, but what I was getting at was, even though this was pre-Nightwish, Floor was already very experienced by the point of Graspop 2010.

Hopefully Floor will soon get the global recognition she so much deserves ...

[@johnpryce2011]

[@LuvtheJEm]

This was Floor knee deep in the beginnings of her burn out, which took much longer to diagnose than it should have. ReVamp allowed her to get out a good amount of her anger, hurt and pain. Glad she's moved through all of it to a better place now, though I do miss the aggression.

[@aryansigrid]

I agree, MOD is another example of how capable 'younger' Floor's vocals already were. Also, it's an amazingly structured & written song, one of my favourites!

[@Tusaisqui]

Hell yeah! Brings back memories, since I was there! The very first band of a very hot Saturday morning in Belgium.... and it was a BLAST! :D

Maybe an underestimated performance at that time, but look what time has done with it: now is an unavoidable reference of one of the greatest singers people have ever listened to!!! Lucky you

[@justdave9610]

@@nicolasromero9470 they were an early slot and not as well known or appreciated so understandable the crowd wasn't the most energetic but also being out in really hot weather is gonna make people much less likely to want to jump around and rock out no matter who's performing.

[@sarahwithstars]

The number of tempo and time signature changes then jumps between compound and syncopated rhythms was insane in this track. in that middle section alone was Approx 64bars of such tricky constantly transitioning drumming around the headbang section.

[@TheIpadfanatic]

Thank you so much for your take of early Floor. She recently addressed a fan question asking her if she missed these sort of performances. And to all of our surprise, Floor said NO emphatically. She said that this side of her represents her youth. The part of her that grew up listening to hard rock and metal. And she lived that dream of the edgy metal lead singer. She has moved on stylistically and matured as an artist. Although she looks back fondly, she prefers where she is at now, which is good news for Nightwish fans. Thanks again! It is fun to see biker Floor.

[@rufuspanjaitan5759]

[@jamesschwarz007]

Thank you, Christi, this song is so much fun to see and hear. The whole Graspop-concert is great, by the way... Floor has always been amazing and she was born to be on stage. Last Thursday evening she did a solo show (with the Marcel Fisserband from Beste Zangers and special guest Henk Poort) in Den Bosch, the Netherlands. It was her first show in front of a real audience in over 1,5 years and she was glowing the whole evening. She was so happy to be back on stage, where she belongs. For me it also was the first real concert after seeing Tim Akkerman on Feb 7 2020 and seeing Floor perform again was just magical (and a bit emotional)! If all works out well, I'll be in Finland in less than 2 weeks to see a couple of Nightwish shows and I'm counting the days....

Floor talked about how she needed to release a lot of anger and emotions that had been building up for years. Shortly after this she burnt out and took a break. Someone will correct me if I have the timeline wrong.

[@petervanloon7308]

Little corection, she had a burn out. Luckely she didn't burn(t) out. Did you see the message from Floor to her (Revamp) fans about the burn out. All the fire was gone. Not even the make up could hide it. She said herself. She had no idea what was coming.... in possitive way ( we all know now) Keep up the good work and sincaire greetings from the Netherlands. (Excuse for my English spelling)

[@Mischnikvideos]

Although there were growls on After Forever, she couldn't. She learned growling and the raspy sound especially for ReVamp. And only because of her burnout did she have the time to fill in at Nightwish.

[@aryansigrid]

@@petervanloon7308 burn out & burnt out? Same thing.

[@maxmattt]

From what I've read in the comments of the video of this whole set from people who were there, this was an early performance in the morning of the second (or third) day of this festival and it was a very hot and humid weekend, That's why the crowd were a bit low on energy to begin with. But by the end of the set they were all chanting "WE WANT MORE!"

[@silverblack5475]

Very True ....after the first song , Floor asks " grasspop are you awake " and laughs .....then says " well , we'll wake you up" and they did .

Floor admits that with Revamp she pushed her voice and didn't take good care of it , plus all the pressures of running every part of this is why she got burnout and went off grid for over a year. She was still recovering from burnout when Nightwish called, and it was just what she needed to move past it.

[@GRIMRPR6942]

I love seeing her self proclaimed "younger attitude" shining through in this song.

[@fatboynick4104]

I was fortunate to see Revamp in NYC in 2014 just before Floor left for Nightwish. I never heard of Revamp before that show. From the first note she sang, I was all in. I could not get enough of her singing. I kept searching for more of her music. I came across this show from Graspop and completely fell in love with her style of singing. Though joining Nightwish was the best career move for her, I think she was better with Revamp. There is another song from this show called The Trial of Monsters. Give it a listen.

[@treintje1001]

Oh yes, the audience knew her for sure. The reason why they were a bit calm is twofold. 1) It was the first show of the day, so people were just waking up. 2) It was real hot that day. You don’t want to be very active on a hot day 😉. Fun fact: Floor had just founded Revamp and the festival organisation had never actually seen a Revamp show before when they booked her. They just trusted her good name. It’s Floor, so it will probably be good. That says enough about how well known she already was within the metal scene back then.

[@Drinckx2]

Great reaction as ever, Christi - thanks!

[@alleninfinity6730]

You looked really nice a little overdressed for Disdain, but nice. I asked Floor a question she answered. "Floor you have such confidence and swagger on stage, would you consider that more learned or natural thing for you." She replied that she had always been like that and she doesn't know where it comes from, but she had never had any form of stage fright. Then she said I don't think that can be learned, but you can become more comfortable on stage. My take, she was born to do this. Nice reaction as always.

[@olgahein4384]

Actually, Thuomas mentioned in an interview once that they wanted Floor to join NW after Tarja left. But at that time After Forever started to become really popular and they chose not to ask her, not wanting to put her into the position of choosing between her own band in which she put a lot of work and dedication and Nightwish (i think it's pretty known by now, what impact NW hat on Floor). And then they ended up choosing their singer by a competition. The rest is history.

While she stayed with Nightwish unofficial, she also was still active in Revamp.

Fab get up, my friend! LOVELY. And ... I heard Floor recently say (and I rephrase, so no intent to distort) that she perhaps would not make quite this music anymore (she mentioned something about the 'aggression' in it not being quite her thing these days). I like most of the current Floor 'music temperament' better, but some parts of this are magnificent (others are less my taste). Absolutely no doubt that this gal is outta this world and can sing ANYTHING! Her vocal stamina is beyond the beyond. The growls, the soprano, the growls again. Whoa! And, she's having so much fun that it is contagious. Full on star.

[@sylmaron5859]

[@horscategorie]

I miss Floor in After Forever... Don't get me wrong - She is home in Nightwish; I just love some of her vocals when she wrote in After Forever and Revamp. As to the Audience, this was EARLY in the morning at Graspop... Lots of hung over people... Oh, Floor was well known... After Forever and Revamp both were and are known in the euro metal scene. After Forever toured with Nightwish EARLY in After Forever's career. I believe Tuomas wanted to have Floor as their vocalist after Tarja, but knew he couldn't ask her as she had a band, and Floor and Tarja were (and are) friends... In fact, Floor asked Tarja if it was ok with her if she joined Nightwish (back in 2012?).
