The first time I saw this clip, I'd never heard Winner in my life before, and yet Floor STILL managed to make me feel what Tim Akkerman wanted his wheelchair-bound brother to feel when he wrote it for him. Floor is simply amazing, and I love her.

You should watch the whole episodes, they are really worth it. Each episode is celebrating the career of each member of that season. Denise Hofs’ channel has them with English subs. Best Zangers is the best thing I have watched in 2019.

Beste Zangers 2021 begins on 2 september with Anneke van Giersbergen and others...

[@j0hnn13K]

Tim was indeed... lets say "un-Tim-like" during this song, and he didnt see it coming at all. As people already mentioned, Tim mentioned he pretty much doesnt cry, and he didnt expect to cry at all during this evening. Well, as you and everyone could see.... there are forces in nature, that can break, the unbreakable.. in this case that force of nature is our own beloved Floor Jansen.. who else but her could've done that? i truly believe no one else could, but her and her majestic unique voice and her ability to reach into your soul like very, very few others are able to. Floor is simply unique, and not for her abilities, no... its her tone, her unique frequency in her voice, that resonates with our emotions, our inner soul, THAT is what makes her such a unique, once in a lifetime singer, and the only one, for me... who also had that same unique quality.. was the late great Freddie Mercury. For me, Floor and Freddie are equals, true equals in their ability to grab you and not let go. (heck, even their names start with an F.. maybe there is something there! lol) Ty for the lovely reaction and the upload Christi, very enjoyable as always :D

[@PK--ITA]

Yes, my dear, you are right, this band that accompanies this show (at least this year) is the best band in the world, they could play everything, exactly everything, folk-salsa-metal-rock-pop-classic. Thanks for the great reactions

[@mariodriessen9740]

I love the way you edit your video's. It makes them so much more pleasing to watch. And the idea of coming back on certain points after the song, using the whole screen and not just a tiny video inside a video, that's just very clever. The sound quality and the volume balance between your voice and the video you're commenting on are perfect! O and the fact that you yourself are a treat for the eyes is a very welcome bonus as well.

[@bouzoulll]

What a lovely reaction for our goddess, thank you so much !!!

[@Thorgrim247]

Floor does love Ann Wilson and has covered "Alone" on one of her CD's. Beste Zangers is a beautiful show. Have you heard "About Love I Don't Know a Thing"? A song written by Reuben Annink, the youmg latin boy on the show. He wrote it about his parents divorce when he was younger. Floor does an incredibly emotion job on this one. Also there is a amazing duet with Henk and Emma doing "Vivo Per Lei" which you should hear. Great job Christy!

[@hansolo2121]

@Thorgrim Actually Ruben Annink the young boy is Dutch. The 'latin' guy on this show is Rolf Sanchez and he is actually Latin/Dutch. He has a Dominican mother and a Dutch father. His real name is Rolf Wienk but is stage name is Rolf Sanchez. That name works better in Latin countries...

[@marjabieze7757]

Ha i just watched the episode from Tim a hour ago ( again)...then i saw youre reaction and had to check it ofcourse...The rasp in here voice at the end of the song was from emotion in Floor's voice she had a hard time keeping it straight but that made it so much more beautiful...i cried like a baby, as they all did on the coutch at the end of this song and Floor too it was Magic.

[@mix6809]

Please will you react to Henk Poort and Emma Heesters while performing Vivo per lei? I think you love it. Every time I watch it my tears will come, it is so beautiful. You see how Henk encourages Emma. Hi isn't out to profile himself, but to let her come out well.

[@harleyquinn8011]

"I'm not gonna cry, 'cause Lion's Don't Cry", said Tim pretentiously... and then Floor sang him his own song. "Damn, Floor...", said Tim then and wiped his tears 😁

Floor means Flower in Dutch, so you're not wrong. She's a rare bloom - a hardy perennial that flourishes in many environments.

[@rdgo4141]

Flower is "bloem" in Dutch, Floor is from Flora from the Latin word for flower

Floor is not a word in the Dutch language, it's just a girls name. Flora is a Dutch word for "flowers and plants" in general.

[@anderspersson7084]

@@Harolddespui Floor is the phonetic sound of how the Swedish word Flor should be pronounced, the word means transparent fabric and a special one is the Sorgeflor=Crape, that is the transparent fabric that covers the face on the widow at the funeral. And just like in Dutch the word Flora means flowers and plants in Swedish to.

[@Green-Lyon]

Floor gave a double meaning to this video, as she also sang it to Tim as he went through a tough year going through a painful divorce. Floor points to Tim and tells him he too is a Winner! Tim and Floor just sang this at a televised gala for sports in the Netherlands. The Marcel Fisser Band is absolutely amazing, and will be accompanying Floor on her solo tour guest starring Henk Poort, in January. The two of them will do "The Phantom of the Opera"

it's an amazing song, great for tim that floor brings a spotlight on the song...

[@jasonknight1085]

You really hit what I like about Beste Zangers -- the whole concept isn't just that they take turns doing a tribute song for one of the other artists, it's also about getting outside your comfort zone and doing something different. To be able to branch our of the work and genre's you're known for. It's why Henk getting a bit rockish in Phantom, or Emma singing in dutch, or Floor singing in Spanish, are so cool. It's not what you're used to hearing from them and showcases how much more talented they are... and in some cases how much more talented than they themselves think they are. ... and that's the thing is before this song and before the spanish one, you can see Floor gathering herself. You can see that hint of self doubt, the "can I do this" -- and then she does it; and makes it look easy. There's the same thing in "learn the set list in 48 hours" where she's coming off what for all intents and purposes was a nervous breakdown, was at the point of never wanting to sing again, and then bouncing back to become lead singer of a group she was a fan of as a teen... In that moment of self doubt, overcoming it and getting on with it. That's what makes a winner.

[@johnbestman3702]

Hi Christi! I love your reactions. Especially the great admiration for Floor is greatly appreciated . Good to hear that you will explore more Floor from "Beste Zangers". Be prepared that you most probably will shed some extra tears when you have your first listen to "I don't know a thing about love", the song she sung for Ruben Annink. He is a very young singer-songwriter. He wrote this song in a period when dealing with the divorce of his parents. Floor translated it into English and performed it beautifully. Please, do yourself and all your subscribers a favour and have a listen! Love from the Netherlands.

Tim is actually older than Floor :D ... In regards to the young artist remark. And as far as I know, his band Di-rect was hugely popular in the Netherlands. But of course there are many of us, who is not from the Netherlands who have come to appreciate his talent now.

Yep, Tim has been writing songs and making music for a long time. He started in his teens with Di-rect, and they were very popular, they've had fewer big hits in the past years, but they're still doing shows and festivals etc. :)

He (Tim) was really lucky because (although he had doubts about Floor's participation in the program) this piece (I don't know if it's his song but I guess so) was addressed to him personally because he has a paralyzed brother in a wheelchair and the text speaks exactly about being strong etc.

I can’t imagine there is anything more incredible than having Floor song one of your owne songs to you. She brings every song to the next level. It’s interesting to see them all sort of realise how good their songs are once she sings them. Not threat the originals ren not good they all are. But you can see every week how she blows their minds and they are all excited to see how she does the next sing. True star power. But they are all excellent. They all have great performances, it is such a a shame a show like this couldn’t be done in US or UK.

He was just as, or even more popular as floor was when he did sing in Di-rect and she in After Forever. They did play at the same festivals at the time (till 2009). And Rolf was in the tropical billboard 2 times and lives in Miami half of the year and tours south and mid America. Emma (hi neighbor!) is just amazing as KZbin cover singer and as person. Samantha has always been very popular in the more "folk" singing festivals and if I am right she was nominated a few times as best singer of the Netherlands and had a hit somewhere in Scandinavia. She also participated in "The Voice of Holland". (Originally a Dutch show). Ruben is a young and very talented singer/songwriter and waiter at a nice cafe! And well, No need to tell anymore who Mr. Poort is. And that is just one season. In the past ones there were a few opera singers (Maria fisselier and Tanja Kross) who were very impressive and many, many others I can recommend (Tommie Cristiaan, O'G3NE, Maan etc etc) but I won't flood this too much..lol

FYI: the show is not recorded over a period of weeks but I believe in something between 8 or 10 days on a location on Ibiza, Spain. The idea is to take artists out of their own bubble (they are there by themselves, no management or personal assistants). Also not much time is spent on rehearsals although there is extensive contact between the artist and the bandleader Marcel Fisser on things like the arrangement.

Assuming you do Floor's version of Rolf's song "Que se Siente" then I'd look up the video of his version of it first. It's a groovy samba Latin number. Then react to the Beste Zangers one.

[@rolfschonmuller8484]

Hello Christi, aren't we all winners? We get to enjoy Floor's singing - that makes us winners... To the song - Tim wrote it in honour of his brother, who is in a wheelchair - but actively participates in life and doesn't let himself be defeated. Tim also said before the show that he can't cry... Floor taught him better... that's why he says "damn Floor" at the end of the song when he puts his head down.

[@treintje1001]

Pronouncation correct! 😉 The whole escence of the show is to share the love for music and they do a great job at it. And yes, it is one of Floor’s core qualities that she can suck up all the emotion in a song to emit it straight into your heart. You are not the only one to get wet eyes when listening to her 😉.

If you like (and haven't done so already in the meantime 😅), it's worth to check out the full episode of Floor, where all the others sing to her. Two of them dare to cover Nightwish songs, which sounds so different and cool, and Emma covers a very personal song written by Floor herself about her mother. And it's so beautiful to see that there is something these very different singers have in common. And it makes Floor cry... Don't worry ... there are english subs... 😉

But if you want to explore more of Beste Zangers I recommend I don't Know a Thing About love by Floor. Greetings from Colombia! :D

[@jhcfight]

Floor says about herself that she always wants to be challenged with new singing techniques. Her growling for instance. After doing it for the first time people reacted that they never expected she could do that. Her answer was that she didn't either. Your effort to pronounce her name the right way shows respect, although I'm sure Floor isn't offended if you don't. Speaking Dutch can be tricky, and her name really can't be more Dutch.
