FLOOR JANSEN, THE MOST POWERFUL FEMALE VOICE IN THE WORLD 

Floor わすごいです！

@Wrath-Amon Go to sleep and wake when you changed your mind...

Agree floor is better

Me too, but I love sleeping sun with Tarja’s vocals 😔

she already sang after forever :D

I guess it’s natural for fans to bring up tarja was the first and probably best known singer for nightwish

@@marie882 not any more. It’s been 12 years.

Yeah Tarja is long gone in the Nightwish story. People who still haven't processed that after so many years surely must have other problems in life too.

Exactly my thoughts! I first heard of Nightwish this January

👍👍 FLOOR JANSEN 👍👍

I'm only in my third decade but I agree that she is spectacular😄

What about Amy Lee from Evanescence

77 and seen hundreds of concerts. She is beyond epic🤯🤩

Damn so you mean to tell me you witnessed my favorite singer Whitney Houston!!!!

I’m in my 5th decade. Wow 7th? Aretha, Ann Wilson, Ella Fitzgerald, Judy Garland had an extraordinary voice and range, Karen Carpenter was about as perfect pitch as it gets, Annie Lennox, Pat Benatar range. Of course the obvious ones: Whitney, Celine, Mariah, Adele. This is legend status discussion. Now I’m leaving out opera singers. You start throwing in Maria Callas, Leontyne Price, Renee Fleming, and Margaret Price and I’m gonna start arguing. Sorry, Amy Lee. If it wasn’t for Floor, it would be Tarja as queen of current genre. I saw Maria Brink live and was blown away. So Amy is in the mixed but not in my metal top5. They don’t call it a Floorgasm for nothing. You don’t replace Tarja… and Floor did it. Doro set the bar for female metal singers. It’s a genre that requires strength. The notes Jansen is hitting live most singers wouldn’t try with that much loud backing music. She can sing a soft elegant 6th octave note and she can belt one. I’ve never witnessed a more phenomenal singer and it’s not even close, imo.

Muzzammil Jummun same with the end of Ever Dream.. each time opens her mouth, it goes higher and higher until you’re looking down at cloud 9 like “Hi Guys!!!”

I think the first and last 10 minutes ;)

It's called the Floorgasm😂❤

Every fucking second of Ghost Love Score is simply epic.

Because she would make them pay dearly for trying :P

@@TerranigmaQuintet Nah, they all Nightwish fans now, we don't gotta worry.

All of the members of Nightwish are in fact allïens

that and the fact that they stop by my house for some killer weed now and then.... they like the purple buds best

there is many heavy metal singers she is no differant tarja as a huge range thats why she is top metal female singer

Tarja Tuirunen is superb as well.

She can even do growl(death growl) with deep deep vocal my jaw dropped too when I heard she did that

A collab of her and Dimash Kudaibergen would be EPIC!!

Amy Lee too

@@saiftalpur7 Meh. Not quite the same, I'd say.

She is one of the best singers however the song "She is my sin" was made for Tarja In fact Floor had it in different key. I think she had it something around 1 tone lower than the original.

@@lilsleep2487 Tarja was good, however, no song in NW was "made" for her, they belong to the band, or more specifically, Tuomas. Floor belted it out her way, and I like her version better..so does most of us NIGHTWISH fans...Tarja has gone solo, like she wanted to, and she's doing well.. now stop being a troll, it's been 15 years ffs.

She sings Sancta Terra which is head voice all along and yet destroys Simone’s weak live performance.

Dr_Piškot_CZ I FORGOT Tarja sang that song. That’s how slurred and lazily she sang it back in the day compared to Floor. Not lambasting Tarja here, but that’s just how much better Floor is than her.

She song was dropped in tuning for Floor to be able to sing it every show. It was to hard to do it for her every night with the standard tuning of the song.

Tarja Turunen is the best...

@@ACES-BRAZIL best what?

Tarja is awesome... yes - but she's not at Floor's level as an truly versatile powerful singer.@@ACES-BRAZIL

No... all three are awesome - Anette as well ​@@ACES-BRAZIL

@Got no Idea it is a joke about women refusing sex because they have a headache. Mr. Diaz here must be in his 30s or 40s like me to catch this joke.

Haha..good one

@@williamjeffersonclinton69 every person in russia from 7 to 90 will understand this joke. Its very common here

@@vasilyterkin8182 In Italy too!!!

@@nonseinormale I'm on the other side of the word, but yup, here too..

Fucking aye she can wisp me away to Valhalla any day.

William Jefferson Clinton too bad she doesn’t have Scandinavian ancestors, so she can’t bring you to Valhalla ^_^

The best singer

lol

Valkyrie + Amazon! Yes, our girl!!

Floor is so bad. she is pitch corrected and her "vocals" have to be fixed. She still sounds awful

So wonderful words, I almost fell into tears.

There is still room for some more praise. Keep going.

With one small exception: "Passion and the Opera". Coloratura passages out of range and vocal technique of Floor.

I saw them on the same tour at a small venue in Manchester, we met her after the gig, she was really nice, she didn't mind us taking a lot of photos with her as well.

Untrue the world record singer is 113.8db unless you are including the mic. In that case many concerts hit 120db with assistance of sound equipment.

I hope they have ear protection when on stage lol, they'd be deaf in 2 concerts if they didn't

I agree with the first reply here 🤣. I'd like to see proof of this measurement, because as someone who 100% believes she is the best vocalist I have ever heard, I don't think it serves her to make up statistics like this... She's already unbelievable enough as it is.

Ye, this is bs. First of all, professional musicians always wear hearing protection on stage and secondly 120 dB might be possible (not saying no one could ever do it) but hasn't been achieved yet.

DAMN! Give me her voice please!

Maybe cause she sings power metal? If she were singing pop she would be an international superstar cause she is beatiful and sexy too not only a beastly voice, Floor could have been an icon as Maria Carey or Witney Houston for example, but we are lucky she loves metal ^^

because sadly in large countries like mine (the US) we have no musical taste and think people like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Beyonce are the be all of music

metal is underrated in a lot of countries who all follow the mainstream commercial SHIT on the radio.

@@RaineRed Not only your country! I suppose metal is pretty niche everywhere (except Scandinavia, maybe). She's a diamond in the rough, let's be happy that she loves metal and that she flew under the radar of the mainstream music industry.

@@_R8x_ true but its much worse in the states, hell there is a reason alot of bands bypass the US or only do a handful of shows in smaller arenas but play to huge crowds in south America. This country stopped appreciating good music

Skill and practice.

Floor was impressive but Tarja was exquisite in that role

Agree to disagree. Tarja was great but Floor was born to be right where she is.

@@jimtexas68 i love her and wish her all the best, but knowing nightwish's history of easily disposing of worthy vocalists i would not bet on her being fully appreciated...God bless

That’s why I love band TAROT. He is leader singer there. /,,/

@@NicolineGrune wings of darkness sounds epic

And also how beatiful he is!

He's so good that Floor's been his back up singer lmao

Не надо здесь о покойниках, Марко помер.

i think the most powerful male voices are johnny gioeli and blackie lawless, but only about rock, can't choose one for all genres there are many

Listen to After Forevers cover of Who wants to live forever, Freddie would have been proud

@@crazy16167 What????? i need to find and listen to that asap!

I hope you do find and listen to the track, I personally would like to know your opinion

Hahahaha Freedy Mercury? She is better than Freddie. With the only singer that I can compared is Ronnie James Dio

People who are hugely talented, yet also have humility, generally have other areas of weakness. And/or they've been through some humbling experiences. What are her weaknesses? I don't know. They're probably not publicly visible, but they're there, you can bet on it. What humbling experiences has she had? Only she can say. Maybe her parents brought her up right, too. Also, when they called her to fill in for Annette, she had pretty much been in an indefinite retirement, and hadn't been active for over a year. She said that when they called her, she had some initial doubts about whether she would be able to do it. So doing this was something she needed. And maybe that's where some of her humility came from. Also, she knew what had happened to Tarja, and how Annette was received by the fans. And of course what maybe was about to happen to Annette. She didn't want that to happen to her too, so she had very good reasons to be uncertain of how she'd be received.

@@jimmyboy131 She had actually lost her band of 15 years (After Forever) and ended up with a severe burn-out where she didn't even want to go outside. So while she was a bit on the mend, saying yes or no to Nightwish really was a make or break moment for her. She said yes and 2 days later she had to perform. But I think it helped she was initially only asked to step in to ride out the tour. If she had been asked to just join she might have turned it down. Luckily fans were supportive of the change during the tail of the tour and how she was received in Argentina and Brazil should have taken away her concerns. Isn't "Our Decades In The Sun" written about her weaknesses? How she feels she is letting people down not being there, not having enough time for people etc. She certainly hasn't had some depressing life, but enough struggle to keep her humble at least.

Last summer on a Dutch tv -show Floor said that in early schooldays (6 years til 12 years old ) she was already much taller than her classmates , they were bullying her , the last schoolyear a teacher talked her into take the leading part in the school musical , she did and was happy as ever because for the first time she felt what she wanted to do in her future , singing and alsof verry important forr the first time she felt she belonged ! I don't know if one thing has to do with the order but I can Imagine that being bullyed can be of impact your'e whole life , mabey that's her weakness . For me she is the greatest singer for sure ♥️ I love her .Greetings from a very proud Dutchie !

@@jimmyboy131 She was bullied at school.

Такая скромность - присуща только святым.

YES, and we must say that all Nightwish songs are very difficult to sing, i heard some live concerts of other great singers as Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey, but they sings just a couple of songs that are difficult to sing, moreover when you sing with drums, bass, guitar, is way harder to prevail with the voice

Her voice brought me in, the songs made me a huge fan and her looks and stage presence made me fall in love with her. She is a Goddess.

@@LuciferMW3 the loudness of the background music for these singers is adjusted for each performance. Floor just sing with the full background sound of the band. I think singers such as Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey could not sustain this.

Btw it says in the description for the video happy birthday floor

@@299436083 likely added in later because it wasn't there when I first watched. ☺️

What poll?

@@maxmattt www.thetoptens.com/female-metal-singers-with-powerful-voices/

@@maxmattt www.thetoptens.com/best-female-metal-singer/

@Amore Arusko you are right but one thing by a concert of 15 songs they have not every song a strong voice but floor from song 1 till song 15

what rickedy poll is this, one comprised of her new POP audiences. Floor disappointed me going onto these hubs of mediocracy holding back her beautiful classical voice. imagine how shocked they would be if they heard her belt a few bars with her metallic timbre.. Tarja would not attend such farces.

Forever

Absolutely perfectly said!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. These are some absolutely gorgeous and harmoniously sexy legs - very underrated.

Nope, these are second most beautiful female pair of legs in the metal world, the first belongs to Dianne Van Giesbergen

Yes, what a sexy package she is!

does that mean there are man legs in metal you like better???? …. asking for a friend

Is the big woman here ? Torrmund - game of thrones

I come from there... she's totally from another world

Then came Shoemaker. But that being said. Singing in the higher range is her comfort zone. Thuomas wrote the songs for her to challenge her, not to just showcase her. She has said that Noise, if I'm right, at first made her nervous because of its fast pace, and she had to practice to get comfortable to do it. Tarja is a one trick pony compared to her, and he fully took the opportunity to write different stuff for her than for Tarja or Annette. I think the least interesting thing to do was to write songs her predecessors could have done too.

I cried when I first heard that song. I knew of Nightwish but not when Floor joined. Didn't know any song. Floor changed me .

Im just discovering her now and im blown away, i have no words her talent range and skill is insane❤ That end note in Ghost Love Score i got chills❤

100% agree

She owns Ghost Love Score :) it shows how versatile people are and im glad we got to witness the 3 of them.

The only one ill give Tarja is Phantom , and sorry but Anette not even in the same conversation

not live, they cant touch her live

YES

omg

Live at Tampere version really is mind blowing. The scream is supersonic.

@@juanrafaelsantosful I have watched so many live versions of this song, it's amazing 😊

Certianly a weapon of Mass Distraction.

👍👍👍

You were right. No one could replace Tarja. Anette did an amazing job and was close. floor ruined nightwish. Her robot singing is awful.

@@williamwilson2104 You must be smoking something good.

Bigears Trenchcoat i’m going to that date too, third time for me. Prepare to cry and be an absolute mess after the gig 😂

@@ashleighburnett3814 I'm wondering if it's still going ahead with this COVID-19. I know their website says it's still going ahead but who knows what's going to happen. And I have to get plane to London and Christ knows what's happening with the airlines! Still, if it all pans out, it'll be an amazing show, another one of my bucket list.

floor is completely emotionless. One of the worst singers ( I heastitate to call it that) I've ever heard. So bland. So bad

She didn't win a show, because it was not a competition at all. It's only about celebrating music, respecting each other and each others music.

Wessel Reinders thanks for correcting me. I was trying to understand the dynamics of the show lol!! We dumb asses in US have to make a competition out of everything instead of sitting back and enjoying the effort. I should have done more research on the show before posting.

The best female vocalist in metal or the heavier sounding rock genres with her versatility. Clean vocals, raspy vocals, growls, she does it all. Never thought I would hear a more versatile female vocalist then Patricia Giraldo, better known as Pat Benatar ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wm4grNE9QVg.html, but Floor Jansen is the best in versatility.
