Short Bio :The Dutch singer, songwriter and vocal coach comes from the little town of Goirle, North Brabant, Netherlands and was born on 21 February 1981. Without knowing much information about her family background, we mention the fact that she grew up in her hometown with her parents and her younger sister, who eventually became a singer, too – Irene Jansen. Floor learned to play the guitar, the flute and the piano at an early age. ( Note, here this is not a photo of Mrs.Jansen home were she grow up, but of the town.)

( Note Here I could not find any photo of Mrs.Jansen at 16, but the song clearly is a about her Choice to join Afterforever at 16.)

After Forever the band released its first album, Prison of Desire, three years later

Nightwish's Floor Jansen: the music that changed my life; (Note Here Is Interview Was Done In 2020)In This Interview Mrs.Jansen Go in to her beginning and how all got started;

Floor Jansen has sung in two symphonic metal bands - she was the vocalist in After Forever and currently fronts up the biggest band in the genre, Nightwish - so you would expect her musical preferences to be stacked with choirs, orchestras and OTT drama. But when we asked her to list the bands, albums and music that changed her life, she served us up quite a few surprises.

The Gathering - Mandylion "This album was the reason I started to form the idea in my brain that I could sing in a metal band. There‘s a song on it called Strange Machines and it got played on the radio when was I starting to get interested in metal. "It was combination of that style of female vocals and heavy guitars. Anna Van Giersbergen’s voice was just … wow to me and hearing her sing on that kind of music, I was like, ‘Yeah that’s what I want.’ For me, an interest in female singers started with Anna Van Giersbergen and with Mandylion."

Joseph And the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat "This was life changing because it made me aware that I could sing. It was a musical that we held at our high school, and I was in it. I must have been 12. There were actual auditions and I participated, wanting the role of the narrator which was one of the main roles and one of the characters who sings by far the most. And I got it, even though I shared the position with two other girls.

"All of a sudden, I realised I can sing. I was the teased child, but in that group, I found I could be myself. Only recently, I was reunited with the two teachers that were behind the whole thing. It was fantastic to meet them again and I wondered, if they hadn’t spent so much time investing time in us to make music, who knows if I would have found out that I wanted to sing, that I can sing and that I’m a born performer? "I was the great mouse as a child. I was the odd one. Why would I want to be onstage? But as soon as I was on it, I belonged there."

Note here below this is not part of the interview with loudersound.com, but my add: Pantera - Vulgar Display Of Power ( Pantera - Vulgar Display Of Power (4K | 1992 | Full Album & Lyrics) " Note Mrs.Jansen did not piont out what , song form Album that Was the song that did for her. after listing to some of the Album myself for the first time, i can see that how it would have inpacked her in 1992 Being that She was Born in 1981 and join afterforever at 16 ( that may her 11 years old , when she hear Pantera for the first time<i> and she join afterforever five years later in 1997.

Machine Head - Burn My Eyes (Full Album) Burn My Eyes is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Machine Head. Note here Mrs. Jansen did not say , how she learn about Machine Head in 1994 at 14 years, three year later she join Afterforever. note here i heard Machine Head for the first time myself , when as writing this part of this blog. so like with Pantera , i can see how Machine Head would have inpacked her.

"Pantera and Machine Head were the two bands that got me into metal. I must have heard things before that when I was listening to grunge, but it was way too heavy for me - I missed melody. It was just un-dynamic, hard music. "I miss something vocally in both, but I liked the energy of this kind of metal. They are both melodic and very groovy. I was listening as a teenager so and while I wouldn’t play Machine Head so much now, Pantera has become a timeless thing for me."

Nightwish,"I can’t remember when I heard Nightwish for the first time, or which Nightwish album it was exactly when I got into them. And I can’t name one Nightwish album that meant so much it was life changing, but touring with them in 2002 with After Forever as a support act - that was life changing for me.

"I wanted to do what they were doing. That kept me going, it gave me a purpose. I remember that was 2002 we were going to go on our first European tour and share our bus with part of the crew with Nightwish. Tony and Ewo [Nightwish’s management] were these massive big Finnish guys. Both of them are extremely tall, broad shouldered, low voiced giants and they came in and explained the basic rules of touring together. "We were like a bunch of school kids listening to them. We were almost afraid, but then they started talking with their low voices and I realised these are super nice guys. It all came down to just, ‘Don’t be a total asshole, let’s drink a little too much and have a good time.’ Which we did!"

Russell Allen [Symphony X singer] "He’s simply my favourite singer in metal. His voice is so diverse, he’s someone who can voice emotion so well. His interpretation of a lyric means you feel the lyric, regardless of its meaning - even if it’s about saving the world and, ‘Here comes the demon…’ and shit I don’t personally get excited about. "He can make a very proggy band with endless solos sound graspable, understandable by his vocals lines. I mean I like Prog, I just don’t fancy listening to endless solos especially on the keyboards when it just sounds like, ‘I can play a lot of notes really fast!’ Then comes Russell just glues everything together with vocal lines that make complete sense over really complicated parts, with that voice that can colour endlessly. "We’ve been friends since I met him in 2002. He’s nine or ten years older than me, he was 31, I was 21, he’s super American and I was super Dutch and he really made a big impression on me." Christmas Metal Symphony - The Phantom of the Opera (Russell Allen & Floor Jansen - Andrew Lloyd Webber/Nightwish cover) 2008

Skunk Anansie - Paranoid And Sunburnt "I already gave away that I like power voices and… what a woman. I found the total package of her fascinating. There she is [Skunk Anansie singer Skin], with her bald head and her blackness, screaming with anger and god forbid she’s bi-sexual. She rubbed it in like, ‘I don’t give a shit what you think.’ I liked the openness of her, the directness of it and her amazing voice.

"She makes things sound so easy when she sings it and then you go ahead and give it a shot and it’s not. To keep it that powerful and controlled, it’s not easy. Fantastic voice, fantastic songwriter, fantastic performer. Weak As I Am - try and finish that from beginning to end with an untrained voice. It was a challenge

Alanis Morrisette - Jagged Little Pill "I recently saw her in a documentary about high sensitive people. Someone recommended it to me because I am also a high sensitive person. We’re simply wired differently. There’s something else in our brains, so we perceive the world differently. Hence the fact I was teased so much, why I was a different child and why certain environments don’t work for me.

Roxette - Look Sharp "This album got me singing. Sitting in the car going on family holiday is the most vivid holiday memory I have so that must be pretty early on. My sister and I would be in the back of the car, singing along with it. We knew all the words. If it was life changing I don’t know, but it sowed the seeds for [singing]. "There was a lot of metal that wasn’t fun to sing. I like Pantera but I’m not going to sing along to it. I like Machine Head and Sepultura. Same thing. [Roxette vocalist Marie Fredriksson] died recently but she made a huge impact on me. She was so forward and so sexy, but she wasn’t seen as a sex object. She was seen as a singer, as a strong woman, as a role model." https://www.loudersound.com/features/nightwishs-floor-jansen-the-music-that-changed-my-life

Floor's ability to sing in styles native to both classical and rock music have made her popular in the metal scene.

ReVamp - Floor Jansen Is Suffering From Burn-Out: Ex-After Forever/ReVamp frontwoman Floor Jansen is suffering from a burn-out. She recently released the following update: "For a few months now my health has not been good... I suffer from a burn-out. It took me a while to accept this fact, it was and is hard to be forced to take it easy and stop doing my work. The shows booked for ReVamp are and have been for the last month my only activity and even that costs me more energy than I have. This burn-out doesn't mean I do not love my work! It's a sign of my system that I worked too hard for too long. I now have to be extremely careful with the amount of activities because my condition is poor. On our tour in Latin America I will only be able to do the shows. I am sorry to say that I cannot attend to any other meetings or signing sessions. Also the social media such as Facebook and Twitter has been a bit quiet and will remain silent for a while until I am fully recovered. I hope to be back on my feet soon and ask you for your sympathy. Music and the amazing support of you all have always energized me and I am sure this will pull me through this difficult period in my life again!" https://metalstorm.net/events/news_comments.php?news_id=13799

FLOOR JANSEN: 'I Can't Imagine Leaving' NIGHTWISH: NIGHTWISH singer Floor Jansen, who recently released a new solo single, "Fire", spoke to Metal Rules about her decision to launch a solo career nearly 25 years after she joined her first band. She said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "People need to know that NIGHTWISH and my solo career are not biting each other. I know that voices have been risen with concern — considering the fact that now I have a solo career, people are afraid I might leave NIGHTWISH because of it. And I just wanted to stress out that I will not. NIGHTWISH is forever in my heart; I can't imagine leaving it. And solo is there to be on the side of it. And I find it super exciting and very enjoyable, but I'm not gonna leave NIGHTWISH." When interviewer Marko Syrjala pointed out that other members of NIGHTWISH have also pursued side projects over the years, Floor concurred. "That's it," she said. "So indeed there's AURI; there's BROTHER FIRETRIBE; Tuomas [Holopainen, NIGHTWISH keyboardist and main songwriter] has been releasing music on the side for many years, and everybody is liking doing different things and being musically engaged in different projects. And I think that's very healthy. It should not bite each other. But we do need to agree on the fact that NIGHTWISH is always the big brother; [it is] the priority for us all." https://blabbermouth.net/news/floor-jansen-i-cant-imagine-leaving-nightwish

Ex-Nightwish singer Tarja Turunen opens up on relationship with Floor Jansen: "we are sisters in metal" published November 23, 2022: Former Nightwish singer Tarja Turunen has opened up on her relationship with current frontwoman for the band, Floor Jansen, who has fronted the Finnish symphonic metallers since 2012.

Speaking to the Scars And Guitars, she notes (as transcribed by Blabbermouth): "We are in touch, and recently more, because she came up with the really horrible news of being sick [Jansen recently revealed she was battling breast cancer, but has since announced she is now cancer free]. So I've been in touch with her. But ever since she joined Nightwish, I was there for her...I hope she's fine and everything is great with her and she's happy. That's what I wish. Now and then when I am in Netherlands, if I have concerts in Netherlands, she's poking by and so on and so on. It's really, really nice. "In general, hey, I feel in metal, we are sisters in metal," she adds. "We all are like sisters in metal. We actually do support each other, all of us.

Tarja Turunen left Nightwish under acrimonious circumstances in 2005. She was replaced by Anette Olzon, who left the band herself in 2012. Floor Jansen fronted Nightwish for a number of live shows that year before officially joining the band soon after. Instagram Live with Floor Jansen:

Floor Jansen - Euphoria | Beste Zangers Songfestival

3 years ago, I made a promise to Henk Poort during my appearance on Beste Zangers. I asked him to perform 'The Phantom of the Opera' with me, and he said he would only do it if we could perform it with Nightwish as well. As a huge fan of the original Dutch production of the show and Henk being the original Phantom actor, I couldn't resist. Our performance on the show went viral and you can watch it here: https://lnkd.in/e7NADCNa

Fast forward to last November, Nightwish and I were finally able to make that promise a reality. We performed " in Amsterdam and it was a huge success. We're thrilled to announce that we've now released it as an official single and video on YouTube. You can watch it here: https://lnkd.in/eV4rvn8v

I want to take a moment to thank the Beste Zangers team, Henk Poort, my Nightwish brothers and management, and my own management. It's been a long journey, but it was worth the wait. I still remember the day when the original performance on the Dutch tv show AVROTROS Beste Zangers went viral, it was an amazing experience, and I am grateful for the opportunity. Thank you all for your support and we hope you enjoy the performance as much as we did!

8.Ave Maria - Floor Jansen & Marko Hietala - Raskasta Joulua 2019: Add Note Here, NIGHTWISH singer Floor Jansen says that Marko “Marco” Hietala‘s decision to leave the band was “a very sudden surprise.“ (MARCO' HIETALA announced his departure from NIGHTWISH in January 2021) so this song was done two year before MARCO' HIETALA left the band.

- Floor Jansen & Marko Hietala - Raskasta Joulua 2019 NIGHTWISH NEW ALBUM COMING OUT 2024 As the ‘Human :ll: Nature - World Tour’ is drawing to a close, we feel now is the time to tell you of our plans for the next phase in our journey. After the planned shows for June 2023 we will be “hanging up our spurs” for an indeterminate time, as far as live concert performances go, and won’t be touring the next album. The reasons for this decision are personal, but, we all agree, vital to the wellbeing and future of the band. Be assured that we still love working together, and this decision has nothing to do with Floor`s pregnancy or our other individual projects. However, an album of 12 new songs will see bright daylight in 2024, as will 3 music videos! The band is positively hyped beyond words over this new upcoming musical adventure.Stay tuned for updates from our legendary Nightwish band camp & studio this summer! -Tuomas, Floor, Emppu, Troy, Kai & Jukkis https://www.nightwish.com/news/nightwish-new-album-coming-out-2024
