Henk Poort - Sound of Silence | Beste Zangers 2019 Reaction! 

Henk Poort (1956) is a Dutch opera and musical singer and a baritone. and was THE Dutch ghost of the Phantom of the Opera from 1993 In 2019 Poort participated in Best Singers, where he took first place in the Dutch iTunes list with his version of “Sound of Silence”. he song this for Floor Jansen(Nichtwish) in a metal version because she is in a metal band. His cover of "Phantom of the Opera", together with Floor Jansen, was also very successful.

Saw this show because Floor was in it and in doing so discovered several other amazing artist that i would have never heard of most likely otherwise. Such a good format on a tv show.

he began singing the original Simon and Garfunkel version. Than he switched it up and ended with the Disturbed version. loved it. He was so nervous before performing the song for Floor. be cause he never before had song like that before. its a no no for an operasinger. where you have to sing as clean as posible. he had practiced singing like that for a few houers before performing it for Floor and the Netherlands.

Henk Poort is a Baritone trained Opera Singer.

Greetings from The Netherlands

Small detail: Floor Jansen idolize Henk Poort since she was a child.

Only on stage he is serious, when he is not performing he isn't that serious at all. He likes to full around and make jokes.😉

Sometimes Henk Poort send Tweets back if you have send him a tweet.. just like Tim Akkerman. They are so cool!

❤

Y’all should react to winner next by floor .. emotionally powerful song!

Really emotional and i agree there is just something amazing about Henks voice. Like Floor said its the Henkeffect. Have you seen his original Phantom performance with Joke de Krujif? Its the musical and Henk was already amazing in 1993, such a great talent. Would be nice to see your reaction (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XnJwXEzjbcw.html) Stay safe and have a good one, greetings from germany

You HAVE to react to the Disturbed version of this song, the Live version from the Conan O'Brien show. You will forget about this. It's on a whole other level. Arguably the best live performance of any song, ever.

Alex, you lucky bastard, you have the prettiest girl on earth there, hahaha...
