"He has this weird authority, but I don't know who he is..." Priceless, LOL. Henk is Dutch stage royalty, well-known throughout Europe. He's done tons of opera, operetta, and musical theater. So that's what you're picking up on. The beauty of it is that he was one of Floor's idols. She saw him as Erik (The Phantom) as a young adolescent and has idolized him since. Like everyone else there (except Tim), Henk had no freaking idea who she is or what she could do. By the time she got 'round to this, he had adopted more an attitude of "proud papa". Kinda like "that's MY girl, look what she can do!"

So here's a thing. A Sweden living Dutch singer of the finnish metal band sings latin salsa in spanish. And she kills it! Floor was nervous at the beginning so she looked really concentrated. It's Rolf Sanchez's song (the guy with brighter smile than my future). You're spot on with that. Floor uses her unique technical skills in every song. Rapid tone and texture changes. Some gravel here an there to hook you in. I could listen her almost endlessly. Great analysis, thank you! And by the way, I like your mugs!

Her choice of what to wear throughout the show is worth noticing too. She has a great sense of how to stage herself for each song. 1st episode she goes on in full metal gear and sings opera (well operetta to be exact). Then a little more loose but still with a rock touch for the dutch pop song. Then full spanish style with colorful dress and flower in her hair and so on. Shallow she does sitting down in a simple grey dress. She packs a lot of showmanship on top of everything else :)

I think my favorite part about this performance from Floor is how she's just bodying the song and this performanc. She's totally vibing off of the other performers. You can see them getting energized from her, and then you can see Floor's reaction to them, upping her intensity. Her look and movement at the end says it all. It's too cute, I can hardly stand it!

This show was so well received that she decided to do 10 solo concerts after the last episode was broadcasted. In those she performs the songs she did in the show, but also songs from her whole repertoire. Of course all sold out, but the best news is that for that reason the last concert at March 24th in Amsterdam will be professionally recorded and HQ streamed, thanks to her successful crowd funding.

From reading other comments I think that on each episode each singer sings a song of a chosen one of the other singers. This week it was the songs of Rolf Sanchez who was the one reacting so enthusiastically. Henk Poort is a Dutch opera and musicals singer who was the lead in the Dutch production of Phantom Of The Opera, so when he sang it with Floor on this show it was quite something. He also did a version of The Sound Of Silence which people react to.

What I also find amazing is that whenever possible she choose songs written by the singer on the central couche in that episode.

Great reactions to Floor so far, they have been fun to watch and see you react the way a lot of us do. I've watched the songs Floor sings on the show along with a few others, and they are all great singers. I think they stay in a villa and record over a week, each singer having one episode where the others sing either songs that mean something or have been written by the featured artist. Its worth watching the whole show if you can find it. They are all famous in their own fields/genres in the Nederlands, however Floor isnt and the others hadn't a clue who she was or what she sounded like. They were amazed when the host said she had sold over 9 million albums and were also amazed and in awe when she sings as you can see by their reactions. I don't know how or why but you cant help being mesmerised by her and her voice. Keep up with the reactions.

The first verse is intentionally intense. If you read the lyrics in Spanish she's facing with resentment someone who has betrayed her, like: "How are you, I've been told you're so good... You're family is happy because you're with him... You have already forgotten what we had... Because of following my dreams I'm not worthy of your love, etc.". As a Spanish native speaker, I think is quite remarkable how she puts all that emotions in a language that is totally out of her comfort zone. Goddess ❤️

Love your humor SS-T. This was the first time Floor has sang in Spanish. She did it to honor her Spanish speaking fans all over the world.

All of these are sung in English. All very different and wonderfully done. BTW, Henk Poort is a well known Opera singer from The Netherlands. See you then SS-T. Be well and keep on toking.

If you say it's not a bong, so be it :) Henk Poort is a successful baritone nationally (in the Netherlands) and internationally in Europe, has played opera, operetta, musicals, played in films.

Great reaction again. Next episode is Floor's own episode in wich all the other singers sing her favorites and her songs. It will be hard to choose a best one, so let me give you the most memorable performances: Emma Heesters (pronounce like the city Hastings) is a KZbin star and sings Strong, a song written by Floor, when she was in After Forever. Samantha Steenwijk (the more full figured singer) is a Dutch folksinger and performs Our Decades in the Sun by Nightwish, but in Dutch! Rolf Sanches, who is the writer and 0riginal performer of Que se siente, sings a favorite of Floor, Hotel California. Check this out, he made it a special version. Also give loads of credits to the band, the Marcel Fisserband, who do all these different styles. And last, but certainly not least: Henk Poort, who is a Dutch opera singer and musicalstar. He sings The sound of Silence and he took the Disturbed version. It's hard to choose, because all are worth watching.

One thing to know about Floor is, that she is a massive singing geek/nerd. She really picks apart the material both from a technical and a lyrical/emotional point of view. And she is so so good at what she does. But it's remarkable to see her in this setting, because this performance is actually the first time in this program, where she really seemed comfortable. It's very humanising seeing a singer with her skill, be a bit too nervous when she has to performer in a completely new setting.
